I made a meta argument. I explained how I believe your meta works, and how you behave, and what I expect that behaviour to look like. I presented a hypothesis. You're like "lol nice try". Didn't bother engaging, just "yeah what you're saying has zero value to me".

Nope. Didn't even engage with your meta argument, other than to say your expectations for me are not going to be met. None of that has anything to do with whatever it is you said I was saying the first time, nor what you are saying this time. People keep telling me not to talk about my meta, so I'm not going to.

Responding to someone in a way that has nothing to do with the thing they said is not a productive way to communicate. Which might be useful in, you know, mafia. Where town communicate with each other to figure out things they don't know, because they are at an information disadvantage.

I guess you may want to avoid that if you're not the one at that disadvantage.

I mean you have posts where you are trying to reason things out and find scum, unlike yesterday where you mostly shitposted and wouldn't even contribute at deadline. My expectations for your posting have declined since the early days when you were more invested in your mafia game

Come on. I am invested in every game I play. Yeah I tend to coast through the first day or two. Partially because I want to be perceived as slightly scummy early in game. but if I’m alive at the start of d3 I always ramp up the effort, every time. I didn’t vote ecco or imgay for exactly that reason (I’m also not convinced they’re scum)

This is silly, but I'll do you the favor of snipping out what I was responding to, which maybe will help you read it. I thought it was pretty obvious already given the words I said, but hey. :)

I absolutely expect him to comment a great deal more in early days

King Burgundy posted:

Feel free to continue to expect things.

Like I even re-used the same word you used, which is a signal for what I was responding to. But somehow you turned that into me saying meta arguments are bad. Like, where would that even come from?

You've now made me type way too many words for D2. I hope you are ashamed of yourself.

Are you actually implying that you weren't saying my argument (which is a meta argument) was wrong (I.e. That I see your expected behaviour as X, your behaviour in this game as Y, there's a mismatche, ergo I'm suspect of you)? No, you didn't literally say the words "that argument is wrong", but when you use the tone you did there, it's hard not to infer it.

I mean okay, whatever, it's a minor point and largely irrelevant, but it shouldn't surprise you if people find it suspect when you respond to an argument of your suspiciousness with a 10 word dismissal.

I'm sorry, you're almost certainly the Serial Killer. I know it sucks to get caught out, but I just tried this same gambit in an ongoing game so I don't believe you.

Granted, I think you're genuinely scum hunting, and I agree that Gaspy is probably scum.

Well my argument is also that I was set up in several ways:



These are theories I like and will be incredibly happy to check once I die.

I see you’re still trying to put me as scum, even with the amount of evidence to support my role claim and flavour claim. Unless you’re replacing myself with AA as per your whiteboard thing you posted earlier. You’ve claimed 3 different roles and have never addressed why I was “acting” super suspicious of Cpig’s claim from a context of me being coached by the scum team. Forgive me if I don’t really see you in a town light.

No, THIS is a correct interpretation. I said feel free to expect me to post more in the early game, regardless of your expectations, it is generally not going to happen. So yes, that translates as, you are wrong.

But what you responded with initially made it sound like you thought I was saying meta arguments are bad. Which is something I disagree with entirely and I don't even see how you'd get there.

Look again at what you said. It doesn't match up at all:

Dancer posted:

Are you gonna act like I'm the only one to ever make a meta argument/that meta arguments are universally meaningless because if yes then lol.

I still think Dancer is scum because he said a swear word at me and made me use a swear.

AA may also be scum, this feels like AA scumgame.

I wish I rolled SK. I'd have already deaded a scum.

Also it would be nice if anyone going this seems like AAs scum game could point out why or support the meta with evidence. That'd be nice.

Ok everyone. I lied about who I was targeting last night just in case scum had a way to prevent visitors to a person and therefore render my ability null. Instead of Dancer and Ecco, I went to investigate Asphyxious cause of the mounting suspicion on them that was happening the previous day. My investigation was successful and Gaspy came back negative.

This means immediately that he isn’t scum or at least part of the initial scum team. As I said before, there may be a possible traitor mechanic where some nights they come back positive for me and others negative so he isn’t completely out of the clear. However, there is a pretty high chance that he isn’t scum nor does he have a killing role.

Also, it looked like scum targeted the person that Toal copped yesterday iirc. Do SK JOATs have coping abilities? I’m assuming this is the case at the moment. We could try focussing around Ecco or Dancer again, but I’m not really sure how much headway we’re gonna make in that regard.

Ok, I’m looking back and AA was one of the most vocal people alongside Toal who were suggesting that Gaspy is scum. I’d like to hear their thoughts about the results of my investigation before going full on aggro at them. I do have my eager eye on them, however.
