Soup, I feel like you're just dodging me. I am not asking you for all the answers. I've explicitly stated that I'm not demanding you prove anything. That you keep saying things like "I'm just telling you my thought process," is hilarious because it's precisely what you aren't doing. You're not explaining what happened on D3 that made you think Rockin was town, despite being jailed by Mac on a Night with a no kill and then refusing to help his faction by claiming and giving reads (aka classic scum play). There's a reason most of us thought he was scum. There must be a reason that you did not. "Because redirector" is not a reason. How does the presence of a redirector complete the puzzle? How does that explain the contradiction between Mac's and Gorf's claimed results? I'm not asking you for facts; I'm asking you what you think is happening and why. I'm missing the why from you completely.
If you don't at least try to answer me when it comes to this, that's your choice, but I'm forced to keep my suspicion of you then. I'm not just going to drop my read on you because you don't want to actually explain your reads.
I'm sorry, it's not intentional dodging, I promise. I have to put the pieces together in my head and feel like my argument holds weight until I present it. It feels like an excuse but that's what I'm doing, and honestly I cannot find the motivation to really look into all that, and my reads aren't solidified which is why I'm just going off the assumptions I have. I know, you want me to explain it more. I've given you all I can do ~right now~ unless you really,
really, wanted to look into the situation again. And even then, I feel like the PR game we're playing right now is blocking me from a lot because in my head I have to think 'well what he did MAKES sense to me.
It's why I'm town-reading Mac right now, because his actions LOOK legitimate to me right now. I've been town-reading that slot nearly all game anyways so I don't feel why I should stop now. The fact I read Macman as town makes me think that his role was tampered with, because I don't think he would do what he did as scum. What about the fact J got roleblocked n1 and we rolled with it? It nearly proves his role unless he's some sort of scum roleblocker, but then again, why are the no kills happening? You could argue and say he could be opting out of killing but that is not a smart situation for one he could be in.
Let's move onto Rake, who I've solidly believed that his claim, while absolutely stupid, was so braindead town that I can't seem scum making it. Can you?
Then J. He's claimed a role that's nearly been confirmed at this point and we were gambitting with him to solidify a read on him. Not really much to question there, unless some weird ****ing mafia inventor exists.
Now you. I don't have much a read on you, but you're not priority. You could be scum, but you're not more scum, to me, than WATT right now. This is why I'm so focused on him. I kind of feel like a hypocrite because I've claimed Ran to have tunnel vision but I suppose I'm salty he's reading me for ridiculous and absolutely wrong reasons, it just drives me up a wall.
I suppose Gorf is an option and I haven't read into what Ashemu was saying regarding his Voyeur, and while I don't believe WATT for a second, do you think they're coordinating the way they are as scum together? I know it's been thrown out there but I don't know, maybe I am being a bit stubborn headed.
Who's left out of that? Ashemu and WATT? This is mostly PoE at this point if I think about it and yes I could be looking into this more but I keep asking the questions I am because I feel like a lot of people are not on board with me, and yes, I could be doing a better job but I'm trying. I'm not gonna lie face down and let my slot get lynched because I'm being lazy and unmotivated. I'll have to deal with it.
