Are you still going after Calix, or have you shifted your focus on NU? Would the argument you made for Calix also apply to NU? Or where do you see the difference there? The fact he isn't voting ExO does not make his push any less disingenuous. Knock knock, Calix is here, asking you to read my NU case like a good dear. Is my NU case also disingenuous? If so, how? Considering you've yet to acquit yourself for that shady ExO push, I'm not concerned about your NU push when he isn't even here to respond to it. Why do I need to 'acquit myself' for you to take my NU case seriously? You either agree with it or you don't. My 'credibility' has nothing to do with wherever you think I make valid points on NU. Poor reaction from you. Lol whatever dude. I'm not wasting my time humoring scum, and right now that's what you are to me. If you want me to take you seriously, I suggest you take me seriously. Ah, it's the MS classic of "you're totally scum so I'm ignoring everything you say" shtick. How anyone has such a strong read that they are willing to dismiss everything that I say post-scum-read with less than 200 posts in the entire thread is beyond me. So do explain, how have you concluded that I'm so scummy this early on? You've yet to address any of my points against you with anything but hand-waving. My case did not hinge on your vote, so that correction was a minor note, not a read changer.
Case, what case? You are doing a piss-poor job of trying to convince anyone that I'm scum. You're not reconsidering your read or considering wherever you are wrong.
You're not doing anything but using "Calix so scum" as a reason to ignore my NU case entirely.
Why do you only bring up that I've 'ignored' your points now when I'm asking you to consider my points on NU?

It is extremely anti-town to ignore anyone save for red-checked players or the like. It shows that he is not willing to reconsider his reads and will be prone to tunnel-vision. (this is something I am specifically trying to avoid)
I remain uncertain on Foreman. I'm inclined to scum-read him purely for his pathetic dismissal of my NU case (aka the most substantial post made this game) but I'm biased there as I think my case is pretty good. Furthermore, some of his posts have minor town-tells in them. (nothing convincing though) Concluding null as it stands.

This seems to weaken your own reads, but at the same time stirs up enough dust for others to make valuable reads, so I don't even consider it a bad thing. I usually try to stay more distanced and openminded though. And use your stirred up chaos :D
Trying out a more level-headed play-style this game...for my standards anyway. I will still be the person doing most of the moving-and-shaking shenanigans while everyone sits around with their cups of tea and whines
That's not a dismissal of your play-style, however. Having different players/ styles in a game results in a better game so I agree that it's a good thing.

##vote NeverUnlucky Didn't you want to wait until NU comes back and answers? While I support your points about him, I still want to see his answer before I can support this push. And for the time being, I'm more looking at Foreman than at NU anyway.
I'm impatient and nobody else is doing anything.

All of your reads come built in with "but I might be wrong." You back pedal on everything you've said so far and leave yourself a way out. Almost as if you are afraid to hard scum read somebody because you know you are lying. I'm quite convinced you are scum leaving yourself as many outs as possible.
That's not back-pedaling. I provided arguments for both sides for Foreman before concluding null.
I have never had problems with hardcore scum-reading players in games as scum. You are conflating "measured reads" with uncertainty. I have specifically stated that I am NOT tunneling and that I am changing my style this game.
Please read before making ignorant statements.
I also want a comment on NU's case. I will not be impressed if you ignore it a la Foreman.

As a side note, I was supposed to be posting LESS this game. Well fuck that.
As always, most of the other players are lazy arseholes so I guess it's my job to carry the town discussion yet again and get shanked N1.

How is he sheeping? He said he agreed with my case with some additional comments.
I was initially paranoid that he was trying to pocket me. That was my fear until he made the "lol I don't want to think like Calix" comment. That seems too weird to be a buddying attempt to me.
Why would mahrgell be scum if I am town exactly?
|
Actually that post where he's like "pls don't mind-meld with me" was pretty weird because we didn't actually have the same thought process on the posts. (I didn't get that impression anyway)
But that's the only post that I found weird from mahrgell so I'm fine with him for now.

Fact-check. I never stated a scum-read on ExO.
"all pushes are very subjective" - It's Day 1. Of course they are going to be 'subjective'. In fact, almost every single push in the history of mafia is 'subjective'. That doesn't mean you just do nothing since town has to be proactive to gain information, etc etc. This is all very obvious stuff so I won't drone on.
With that in mind, your approach is very hard to understand to me.

Stating that someone's illogical =/= scum-read, Skynx dear.
As for mahrgell, if you're using mind melds to inform a read then that's fine. But from my point of view, I don't get the same impression when it's vice versa. I would have to see you post things first that I agreed with before I would make that read. It's mostly been you agreeing with me if I recall correctly so I can see where you're coming from in terms of perspective.

Nothing. It's a summary of Skynx's behaviour which anyone can do. Nothing to note there.

Wonderful. Isn't it great to resolve things instead of stone-walling me because of a scum-read?
Now that we're being more civil, care to:
A) Reiterate those points against me which you think I ignored?
B) Actually consider my NU case?

You also have to take into account that I considered his behaviour anti-town. I don't see the problem with questioning a player in that category within the first few posts. It's the best time to clear up such matters, no?
I hope that clears up everything.

Are you referring to ExO or NU? I am assuming the former here.
Your post is confusing and I don't understand how you reached...whatever it is that you concluded.
