Honestly too early for me to answer this question in any way that isn't complete guesswork. But I do have a question for you.role fishy how?
Fandangox
if you had to guess 2 players who werent teamed based off the first pages who would they b and why?
swag af seein falcon in gfinals for both melee and ultimate btw
With 13 alive it takes 7 to lynch
he called it an "actual question," but it was a hypothetical question
in the end, this is all it is imo
youre not wrong, at least half of the steam behind any semblance of a jtb wagon literally came from both of his scummates last game lmfao
this dude really said hed catch up tomorrow at work with like one ****ing page of game lmao
your uncanny changing of avatar in combination with this what we in the business call cognitive dissonance. the simon i know would never turn on his bro like that
what's your strategy for reading Lore?
Nah. I am his successor and its time to succeed him.
you hadnt posted at the time so i wanted to throw something your way that could potentially tell me something
Wouldn't all of that make it obvious it is a hypothetical though? Like the intent there seems pretty obvious to me, so why would these small contradictions (if one can call them that) seem weird to you?
I hadn't even read my PM when I made that pots lol, I was under the impression the game was gonna start a bit later than that, so just left that in
Gonna give a raincheck on that one, ask me again closer to end of D1, or when you think there will be more posts to actually get a solid answer on that, cause like I said, even still it fills to early for me for my answer to not be aimless guesswork
I dunno, it just seemed to be calling out one specific person/role pairing and asking if they'd shoot to prove they're a vig. I guess it's not fishing after re-reading it (since it's all a hypothetical), but it's building a line of questioning on the assumption that Pythag is vig and I don't really see how that'd be useful information. I think Lore was trying to pressure Pythag, but two votes and saying that it's "not an RVS vote" despite having no content on Pythag at all is a little odd. And furthermore, why would Lore go for Pythag in order to pressure him rather than voting a slot that already had votes, like Ryker? And why specifically a Vig? The only thing that pops to mind would be if he's breadcrumbing as a N0 cop, but we don't have any possible N0 roles in the game. It just seemed oddly specific and strangely targeted lol.
^This is my thought on Tom re: the hypothetical as well, and I don't really understand how he didn't take it as a hypothetical, along with the "contradictions" being kinda reachy.
That makes sense if you thought Ryker would shoot it down, but why would he shoot it down more than Pythag? I agree he'd be more likely to, but I think Ryker's presumed response of "what kind of question was that" should've sent up some red flags. I re-iterate that I find this whole thing null, mainly because it's in RVS and people expected to be clawing for any lead they can get.
That's because I thought the vig was a dayvig rather than just a normal vig. That was my bad. And if it pressured Pythag as much as you intended, depending upon how rusty Pythag's Mafia game is, he could've panicked and that would've given vig!Pythag away to the scumteam. Although I can't really imagine a scenario in which Pythag would've been pressured by that post, that did seem to be the post's intent upon a first read.
Because votes are the primary way to add pressure. Regardless of intent, 5 votes looks a lot nastier than 2. Plus, Pythag didn't have any legitimate pressure at that time either, so I'd think that it would make sense to put the vote on the wagon that already had the most votes.
Yup, you're right; I just went back and checked. Still, putting someone at L-3 is more pressure than putting someone at L-5.
That's because I'm trying to go through and see what motivations town!Lore vs. scum!Lore would have. It's my way of trying to understand their PoV and see if it makes sense.
What'd you get out of the exchange then? It seemed like you came to the conclusion he was null all by yourself, so I dunno what's prompting further discussion
You're right that I've come to the conclusion that it's null, but Lore seems to want to talk more, so I'm just answering their questions at this point.
If you played a game with Ryker already (or at least part of one) and think he'd have patience for that question, then I'm shocked. Fortunately it seems that you agree, so I don't understand why you're pushing this point.
He did similar behavior in the last game, and I called him out on it. However, he ended up as Town. I suspect the extreme wiggle room in his statements could be playstyle. At the same time, iirc he was a power role so he could have been playing extra defensive/preparatory to stay safe. It's null for me atm.
Last game you tended to drop votes without much stated reasoning. Mind adding some to this vote?
Vote: Lore
Pretty sure RVS is over by this point, so I'm not sure why you're voting for a clear RVS vote.
Fair enough. I agree that I've been reachy, but that's just because I'm at home with pretty much nothing to do, this game's moving at a snail's pace, and I wanted it to speed up a little. Nobody's biting and your post seems to be the only thing to talk about, so I didn't really see a point in not responding to your responses. I'll take a nap and come back to this later; hopefully my stomach starts feeling better and I'll have a clearer head by that point.
I only skimmed last game so you'd have a better impression than me. Regardless of who Spak is I find scum tends to make non-arguments for the sake of credibility, and while I don't entirely agree that Spak is reaching per-se, I do feel like he's spending a lot of time on something that would've been resolved anyways. Do you think that Spak would try to stick close to how he played in the last game for townpoints, or is that fact of him playing similar giving you slight pause in your own thought process?
Makes some sense, but I feel like this has been going on since your first post towards me, with the "role baiting" comment. This wasn't a recent development on your end as part of the thread being inactive. Not sure how I feel on your reasoning here, but I will admit that being sick with nothing to do does explain at least some of it.
I personally don't think he'd be doing it for town points. I do think it's either part of his general playstyle or his playstyle as a power role (whether town PR or just scum in general). The similarity is giving me pause and forcing me to decide which of the two I feel it is.
How do you feel about his #113 in regards to him essentially backing down and admitting he was probably reaching and essentially saying he was bored/wanted to get out of RVS as well
I stated how I felt in #115, but I'm still chewing on it. The boredom is a reasonable excuse, albeit a bit of an easy one. I don't think it applies to his initial posts about the role fishing etc.
I know it sounds uncanny but I'm pretty sure you both had the same purpose in the way you were approaching each other, because you yourself also said your intent was to get out of RVS. I was hoping Spak would buckle but instead he sorta left a bit gracefully imo
