This meta is no longer applicable. I was quiet in Celebrity Mafia, and was Town. No, that's not quite right. I WENT quiet in Celebrity Mafia, and despite being AN UNCOUNTERCLAIMED COP, my meta was SO strong that I was lynched anyway. In fact, I was fairly vocal, went quiet, then because surly and vocal again. Sound familiar?
Why are you relying on meta to such an extreme, especially only that which can be portrayed as negative while ignoring the EXTREME flurries of activity that I showed here? Is it not my meta to be extremely active? Was I NOT extremely active, at first?
Yes, you were extremly active at first, I cannot deney that. However, you were stil inactive for about 40% of the game. That's a big strike against you, and I simply cannot discredit that. I cannot speak for Celebrity mafia, expect for the fact that it's one isolated incident. Anyone can point to one time that they were town and did something anti-town and where town. Doesn't mean we should discredit their anti-towniness. This is why I believe self-meta
means next to nothing.
Your activity now could be explined from you being in the lime light, so that also have to consider that.
Still though I will take into consideration that you have been more active, and that does make me feel slightly better about you.
You are limiting your opinions to negative ones because I CAN and have shown the desire to limit the possible scum to you and me. Your interest is clearly in portraying others as scum rather than determining who
IS scum.
How have you've determined that I'm simply trying to protray others as scum?
This is not true. Again, perhaps I haven't been as active this game as I should have, I'll admit that. I haven't been actively hunting and I'm sorry. But I've been trying to do my part to help. I've been forming thoeries, asking questions, I helped lynch Smarg (yes, it could be a bus, but it still happened). There are several ways I have determined that you are scummy, which I'll post at the end of this post.
Why, if I were scum, did I limit the possible scum to just us? Why, if I were scum, would I have ACTIVELY suggested that we lynch smargaret then myself and go on to provide support for that position? You're going
to cry WIFOM, but these are still actions taken. How, given my OWN meta, would this have ACTUALLY improved my chances as scum?
ToDay, you would want to limit the options to just me and you because that's all you need now, a Sword lynch.
YesturDay, you DIDN'T really even offer yourself to be the lynch. You told people to vote you, you DID NOT actually believe you should be lynched. Look at your 1488. When people suggested that you should of been lynched yesturDay, you lashed out against them. Almost all of yesturDay, you yourself were pushing for a Ran lynch. So you are simplying lying here.
The second time you voted yourself yesturDay you unvoted yourself extremly quickly. So you cleared the idea of a J/Ran team. That's good, but it acomplished next to nothing, it just cleared a team possibility. It's a deceptively shallow action.
You know as well as I do that scum will deliberately decrease the changes of them winning to make themselves look more protown, so don't pretend otherwise. That's nearly completly null, it hardly gives you as many townie points as you think it does.
YesterDay or toDay? Doesn't matter since the motivation is the same. You can appreciate that I was staring death in the face, can't you? You had to support your position for voting for smargaret in the face of a confirmed Town who was willing to force a "NL" to force MY lynch. Not that you really did. You voted for Ranmaru because it was safe to do so (for Town as a whole), just as you had voted for smargaret previously, the entire
time talking of how it was guaranteed to catch scum, rather than a solid stance on either.
YesturDay. Yes, I can appreciate the fact that you voted yourself, although I'm still skeptical of you interior motive for doing so (see above).
Pretty sure I was fine with Smarg going, and that I took a pretty solid stance on her. However, is me not being willing to risk the whole game on Ran really a bad thing? There's a difference between playing smart and playing just safe.
It is interesting that you call my actions "nonsense". In Tree Stump, YOU were cleared in endgame BECAUSE of these very same sorts of actions. Mentos was put at L-1 by Nick and Omis; we then KNEW that you could NOT be the last scum because YOU DIDN'T HAMMER. How many times have I said that here? I've made my motivation for my self-voting abundantly clear. That you miss it given your personal history is very telling
indeed.
I didn't need to be in Tree Stump to know that someone not hammering immediatly in LYLO clears them. My personnal history has nothing to do with this.
YesturDay, you're actions would not of cleared anyone. Scum wasn't going to hammer you, because it would make them look suspicious. Also, since Smarg was on the Guilliotine it wouldn't of won them the game. You're actions were indeed nonsense and added nothing to the game, except murked it up.
You voting yourself toDay does indeed sound rather dumb for scum to do, I'll give you that. But I doubt you would of actually gone through with it. A lot of the time you haven't, and after voting yourself have gotten quite angry when others actually think to lynch you.
This IS LYLO, scum. Whatever the Mod says, is, regardless of the accuracy of his words. Once his foolish ruling was made, I stopped supporting my own lynch. It does not need to be stated, because it is
intuitively obvious. No, that's not quite right, it should not NEED to be stated.
Okay, I got my math wrong. I'm sorry about that. Not every post needs to be on cue.
Providing PROOF that everyone that isn't you or me isn't scum isn't WIFOM, it's cold, hard fact. You COULD have said that I was just trying to do this to garner support, but no, you are trying to dismiss my actions as irrelevencies. Why?
What proove have you provided though?
Also, how are you so confident that one of us is scum? Actually, I see it less likely that a townie would do what you did. A townie would more likely be less confident in placing faith that so many people were not scum, even if they had townie reads on all of them. Scum, however, in LYLO would be a bit more confident (although it is pretty ballsy, I will admit) that town wouldn't prematuraly hammer them.
Think about the position that a scum Cello is in. Scum Cello is already being gunned for. However, so am I, so why shouldn't scum Cello make make the case between us?
That's percisely why it's WIFOM. It leaves everything up to a cointoss. Cello's actions haven't determined that I'm scum, they just determined that I could be scum.
...And? Was there a purpose to this statement?
The purpose of my statments is to show that you were trying to shut down the option of me using something that was scummy against you.
You are using meta as the basis for your suspicion of me, and ONLY meta, regardless of what you say. You SAY "actions Cello has taken in this game are scummy", but they are only scummy FOR ME, which is META.
I'm a bit confused as to what you're accusing me of here. Are you saying that I've only used meta against you? If so, then that's simply wrong. Not only meta, but I've already accused you of using WIFOM and playing in a style that simply does not make sense. There's also more were that came from (again, see bottem of post).
I am correcting your erroneous meta. If you want to try to use meta AT ALL, then be ACCURATE. If you believe that what I am saying is inaccurate, PROVIDE PROOF TO THAT EFFECT. You will fail.
How do you suppose I go about prooving meta? Meta is something which people just know. Usually people ignore it, but in your case it's pretty damning.
Again though, I'll let up on this point about meta since you have indeed gotten better as the game went on.
And how shall we go about this? I thought you believed my actions to be "nonsense" and "a bunch of WIFOM".
I was talking to J there, who seemed to have a town read on KevinM at that point. J wanted me to "duke it out with Cello (and here I am)", and I was asking J why someone like KevinM shouldn't be considered. I wasn't asking it of you.
Btw J did answer this, I just missed it.
I said I was mafia to goad Ranmaru into voting for me to prove a point. That should be contextually obvious to anyone that doesn't have a steaming pile of monkey **** for a brain.
What solid point were you trying to proove though? That a team possibility couldn't exist?
---
Cello, let me turn the tables on you now.
You have accused me as simply trying to protray others as scum. However, you're the the one who has been stuck on a few select people this game. You're the one who gets it into your mind that someone just MUST be scum, no matter what evidence there is to the contray. You have pushed some bad ideas this game, just as how Ran was scum over Smarg, or how how J was scum if Ran was town. None of this did anything, but distract us,
and nothing successful came out of it. Now though, you're accusing me of being the one to simply protray others as scum, when you have been doing it all game.
I mean, you have simply been WRONG about so many things this game. You were wrong about Smarg early on, you were wrong about Ran (I was to, but you seem to be staking yourself on this), and you've tried to form connections which didn't make sense. Cello, I know you're hard headed but I also know you're smarter than this. You've been wrong so often and yet have an unsettling confidence. Trying to proove others are not scum is
indeed usually something that is protown, but in the situation that you are in it's perfectly okay for scum to do.
Cello, perhaps I was a bit too hard on you for meta (although I still hold that it's sketchy for you). Also, there were several points were, even if you weren't using WIFOM, it still doesn't amount to much (yesturDay self-voting, for example). You're play has been bad, and you have not accomplished as much as you think.
