Look, OK, I didn't think anything about what you were having people do until you insisted that I rephrase my answer because I am always wary of trap phrases in games.

Because I think you are scum, Max.

You have dodged making the statement phrased in the way I requested, demanding an explanation and role fishing from there. You entertain the possibility of making the statement with alternate phrasing, but then refuse to do so in a more definitive way.

There is no way a town people would be okay with "I am town, x is town" and not "I am not scum, nor is x". Concerns about trap phrasing and such are garbage since town doesn't give a fart about their phrasing. They don't need to. Anything a townie says is something a townie would say.

Max's behavior w/r/t is scummy through and through. He is scum.

I refuse to spend the whole day repeating myself, so this is my last word on the subject:

I was legit in a game with plenty of trap phrases that lead to day kills, so I am now mostly paranoid about it whenever it pops up. I can't see any reason why you would insists on me re-phrasing what I said unless it involves a power. If you were town, the correct play was to go "Hmm, he didn't do it the right way but I shouldn't call attention to the fact that it's important so I'll drop it." You didn't, which is weird. I kept saying I wasn't going to answer it and to move on, and wasn't really pressuring you to do anything. You created the situation we are in now.

Max
Nov 30, 2002

And for the record, I think you are town and just got over-eager because you thought you caught someone. It's disingenuous to say that town wouldn't care about phrasing when you specifically direct me to say something in a certain way after the question has already been answered and you should know better.

You can find it strange, there's no reason not to do it, as there is no reason for you to not do it now, as you have still refused to do for unknown reasons.

Could at least flip one or two, maybe.

Max posted:

I can totally see scum trying to throw scum team speculation out there to seem genuinely interested, especially since you gave an actual number.

On the flipside I asked this in Earthbound, too, so you know some precendant where this is a thing I like to do to get a decent idea of what I'm working with for the average game. It seems suspicious that you're taking a very vocal role in the discussion right now while trying to push this scum-tell on me to try and push away people's suspicions on you.

I agree with cckeane.

And this is just "nah he's just eager ignore him, rest of the game. Don't vote for me~"
