I went to do a reread after this post and saw the change. My mistake!nope
I sincerely apologize for any offence. That was the impression I got when I asked about why you were a candidate - whether it was a joke thing or a chronic uselessness thing and KevinM replied the way he did. Given that and your first post, I thought it was one of those "player who always pokes in and says they're reading but doesn't actually play the game" cases, and not like, apparently a judgement on your skill level, which is actually super ****ty (seriously wtf guys?).Honestly I'm a little hurt I'm considered a housecleaning lynch (a term I'm just learning today) =/
Oh no, not to you directly. More so to the others that consider me that LOLI sincerely apologize for any offence.

If it makes you feel any better I don't have anything against you or think poorly of your skill level, I was just generally willing to wagon a player who it looked to me like the town thought wasn't going to actually do anything,
Hey man, to be fair, I think everyone's on board with the inside joke aside from Doop, who's probably taking it seriously because part of the joke is to take it serious. Don't worry man, it'll be all the more groovy when he flips scum and you're on his wagon! Show HIM how to stick it to the man! RISE UP! REVOLUTION!Honestly I'm a little hurt I'm considered a housecleaning lynch (a term I'm just learning today) =/
Am I being overly analytical again or is this, like, reeeeeally bad?I was just generally willing to wagon a player who it looked to me like the town thought wasn't going to actually do anything,
sweet, I just didn't want y'all to think I was bein a **** because that's a line I try not to cross in mafia unless it's warrantedOh no, not to you directly. More so to the others that consider me that LOL
Honestly I wouldn't too much thought into it. This whole sympathetic air should be dropped asap. It can be talked about it more after game, but for now yeah LOL
inside jokes are cool and all but if I don't know the reason someone's up for lynch that's actually a serious problemHey man, to be fair, I think everyone's on board with the inside joke aside from Doop, who's probably taking it seriously because part of the joke is to take it serious.

I never voted for Ranmaru, And the reason why I didn't vote for him is because, despite the posts either being ugly to look at, or seem somewhat inconsistant with the reasoning, isn't a strong enough reason. The inconsisancy in particular is minor, and I felt the whole post was more emotionally driven than logic. I also feel there's potentially better picks for a lynch: something I'm currently settled in on JeXs (however, I'm open for anyone that isn't an inactive as far as lynches, provided there's some good reasoning behind it).but some initial takeaways: only person I'm ok with on Ran's wagon was KevinM, who started it. I'm wary of people who hopped on the ranmaru wagon, esp later on. Also wary of people who seem tentatively ok with Ran going but haven't given much reason why or manned up and voted. Rockin fits both cases
vote: rockin
im also fully ok with Pythag going, and after him Maven / Nabe just for inactivity's sake
*shrug*Am I being overly analytical again or is this, like, reeeeeally bad?
I don't think I've ever played a game where someone was legitimately policy lynched for how they've always played, especially in an invitational. That's just, like, wicked harsh.inside jokes are cool and all but if I don't know the reason someone's up for lynch that's actually a serious problem
I refuse to acknowledge this only because I don't want you to get anymore brownie points >_>;rockin we wagon vote you bc you squirm under pressure. it doesn't make you bad. it makes you familiar. you were invited to this game weren't you?
brownie
I see this but here it's not enough to vote? Did something change?You mis-read the post. When I said similar, I meant that I also have some issues with Tom and Jex, At the moment, I don't see any scum intentions in his post. Jex, however I see slight scum intentions (The willingness to jump on the wagon, and again, I don't think I heard of anything important from them). However, the 1st part (willingness to jump) isn't enough of a strong reason to vote/want to lynch them, and thus want to see how the day continues to see if anything different happen.
I'm just saying I want to keep a closer eye on them.
rockin did you post why you were voting jexs? i'm looking through for it but cant find it
No I haven't, but I can elaborate now.I see this but here it's not enough to vote? Did something change?
To elaborate more on this part here, this is something that I noticed sometime after my few initial posts in this game.No I haven't, but I can elaborate now.
The issue I have is I haven't seen them do much of anything aside from answering a few questions. Just sitting on the sidelines. Before my posts, they sided with KevinM very early on my wagon. Naturally, I didn't bother confronting it since neither of them were a threat. However, the sidelines play and her weak list of people that 'can go' is...well, weak.Two of them are next to non existent, and the one other person (me) have been posting, but they haven't confronted it head on. Feels like they're waiting for others to do the work. from a logic PoV, it seems somewhat scummy (or 'scumlean').
I'm also not convinced with their town/moderate town list. They all seem safe.
It's ok. I still love you. I'm just trying to get what he is thinking.Honestly I'm a little hurt I'm considered a housecleaning lynch (a term I'm just learning today) =/
Ok sure. I am just trying to figure out what you mean here. How is chronically useless vs actively useless a better lynch? I don't think you have any evidence whatsoever to make you think that Maven isn't an equivalent "housecleaning" lynch. What is the difference here?Wait hold up.
The rockin wagon was because rockin is bad? I thought it was because he's chronically not doing anything?
Maven is a player with chronic activity problems? I don't recall that being the case, and iirc someone posted in this game that he's usually active.
Can you point out where Marshy has been helpful towards determining who's scum and how he's actively progress the game?Marshy and Ryker have been helpful and actively trying to progress the game. I like their active attempts to engage/push people. I wouldn't put it past them as scum, but I like them for now and have no issues with them. FF has felt pretty town to me, with his posts and thought process. and I can see him trying to solve the game.
Somehow in his brain, he doesn't put 2 and 2 together, and note that Marshy doesn't want to step up for me this game. I wonder why. HMMMMMMMMM Anyway, that's actually a sign of scum motivation that Gorf noticed. It's certainly one I have been caught on myself as scum. Joey caught me with not trying to counter a wagon to save my town read, when I was simply trying to not do something scummy. His only mistake was that he hadn't pushed it far enough, and he let it go. I won the game with Zen.But what kinda puts me over the top on my read on you is the fact that my main man marshy hasn't tried making me stop pushing you. I'm not kidding dude, I was kind of curious to see him step in and tell me you're being town. Cuz in the past, like, he's tried putting the brakes on me when we've all been town in a game. And then I grumble in the corner and rip on a bleezy to try calming down. And I pack that TO THE FREAKIN BRIM with walrus before it kicks in man!"
to b totally fair
i think you need a strong town to pull this off with confidence. ive seen a lot of weakwilled towns flounder and lose their minds, dogpiling a previous nonplay in the chaos of a last minute rush due to excessive scum influence
not sure if this town is in that category just yet. there are absolutely strong players in this town but im thinking weve got at least two competent scum who can pull the wool over peoples eyes and some townies who might need to b guarded from them and sheparded. id b having an absolute field day as scum right now

I'll get back to you later, I'll be doing a reread of the game. I promise! Can you let me know your thoughts on Rockin in the meantime?Can you point out where Marshy has been helpful towards determining who's scum and how he's actively progress the game?
Can you explain your JTB read? He's pretty null for me but he's at the top of your town list and I don't really see much of you explaining it. Also, what do you think of him voting Rockin?Town:
JTB > UTO > Macman > KevinM > Gorf > Kary > Rockin
Null:
Tom > Nabe > Doop
Scum:
Marshy > Ryker > Maven > Frozen Flame (Only here due to association)
Slight Scum:
Jex > Pythag
Nobody. It was something that I had been debating in my head at the time and wanted to post what I was thinking.
I wasn't ignoring the question, I just didn't know whether the person asking was relevant. Is it?
I actually agree with this. I've seen Maven be fairly active as scum (Blazblue Mafia). I think his inactivity is a null tell. Mostly ranmaruIf I were to offer an opinion, Maven being completely inactive is a null tell in terms of meta. In my experience the dude is just busy a lot of the time.
I'm kind of surprised how often Maven's name has been thrown around given Nabe's complete lack of content.
But I'm confident in reading both of them provided they actually post a reasonable amount. And we should replace them if not.
I'm not a fan of the way Pythag started this game and I'm content for my vote to remain there for the time being.
I like Kary's direction with Pythag. Considering that Kary voted for Pythag even before he posted, and his reaction was that he was interested if Kary had any reason to vote him. Currently rereading and I find myself liking Kary more.Can you elaborate on what you were expecting from me? Because to me this isn't a great reaction to an RVS vote.
What does him leaning to it to that extent imply in relation to scumhunting in your mind? I'm just curious why you cared to ask him this, when you didn't ask him about Rockin, who had less posts than Maven at the time.I mean we all know you're trigger happy but do you have to lean into it to this extent?
