yuming posted:Murmur just did the same thing as scum in the last game we played and that makes me suspicious. For what it's worth, I've either opened with an intentionally bad case or steadfastly agreed with someone else's clear joking case in my last few games as a way to segue out of jokephase. WIFOA (I was scum) Gnomefia (I was town) League II (I was town) Open Concept Mafia (I was town) King Burgundy posted:My reason for voting Keane was exactly the same as yours minus some words. You didn't think it was worth a vote initially. But now you do. To me that looks like you are trying anything to get out of the pressure you were under since I hadn't actually done anything new. Aka flailing. My case was a joke, though (see also: where I intentionally changed the context of one of his quotes to fit my case). My read is that Keane's flavor is that of an apathetic adventurer, not that he's actually trying (and failing) to make us think he's emotionless. I thought your vote was a joke too, until you said you liked my case. Also, I wouldn't call PMom/CPigs votes on me without further explanation "pressure", at least not after the first case of the game.

AnonymousNarcotics posted:I don't see what's wrong with MMTs casing of keane. It's not a rock solid case but we don't have much to go on day 1. I don't agree with it, but i also don't think she's scum at this point. She seems to be the only person actually scum hunting. Town reads in general make me lean scum (as they're easy to use as scum since they're not lies), but that's not enough to make me feel strong about it. AnonymousNarcotics posted:Tmm why aren't you hounding merk about his flavor? However, this question feels out of nowhere. It was asked only ten minutes after Merk started Hulk-posting, which makes me feel like it was motivated by a need to post something (instead of genuinely wanting to know). ANarc - what made you ask this? I don't see (m)any other instances of TMM hounding people for their flavor, why not just engage Merk directly?

Normally I wouldn't answer for someone but I think ANarcs question to me can be safely considered as teasing/harmless. But just that particular question. The story is in my first ever mafia game I went after EXAKT for a bit and some of it was based on the fact that he choose Hollywood Hulk Hogan as his self imposed flavor in a flavorless game. So I pointed out that that was Hogans heel character.

Trying to keep 16 different people's posts straight has been rather difficult. Opop is seeming scummy to me for the same reason as in WIFOA... which means he could be town. I know for a fact my scumdar needs work, so as of right now that's a null-leaning-town there. MMT is doing that thing that promotes discussion. Regardless of alignment, that's a pro-town thing. Null-leaning-town there. I want my question to Roy answered. Nothing yet there. KingB is town. Considering my track record on betting, this might not be saying much, but I'll bet that one of Pmom or Keane is scum. Nothing solid there yet, so no vote from me yet. TMM, aside from the glory, why did you want to win the challenge?

AnonymousNarcotics posted:Omega why are you so sure KB is town? Can anyone be 100% sure? My reasons are that his case against MMT is pretty good and founded in sane logic. To be fair, a followup look will be required. The main point is that King makes no sense as a D1 lynch.

Having a good case when we have zero information really falls flat for me. Building up early rhetoric just seems to be a town thing for some people. Most games I've played usually at least one scum is seen to be accepted as town for these kind of dumb reasons

Murmur Twin posted:While I appreciate that people thought my case on Keane was genuine, I'm curious how people took it seriously when I took the above quote and pasted it as You said "I like this" to a case that was based on (a) Keane lying about being apathetic (how is that even scummy?) and (b) involved me changing one of Keane's quotes to reflect the non-serious point I was making. I voted because it didn't seem like a case that anyone who actually read it would genuinely like.

I think it's a little unfair to say someone isn't reading the case based on the fact that you removed a word in a quote. When someone posts a quote, I generally expect it to be unaltered or trimmed to down the relative point. Removing one word and then saying people aren't reading because they aren't clicking through and looking at the original post feels very dishonest.

I was just using that to illustrate the point that it was a less-than-serious case to begin with. Either way, it's not like I'm actively pushing to get KB lynched (I have him at null-lean-scum at the moment), it's more me explaining the thought process that led to my vote.

OmegaGoo posted:So what was your reasoning here? I understand items are nice, and hell, they might help town in general, but why not try to actually win? I had a few reasons. First- getting the crown means you can't be executed today, or lynched. That is great and all but the odds of that happening are like 1 in 17. So I can work really, really hard and fight to win something that I have a 1 in 17 chance of needing, that works for one day, or i can work a little less hard and win a mystery item. The big prize didn't seem worth it. I think I made the right choice as my does not expire, and ultimately will have more use to the town than being unlynchable for day one.

One of the things I do, is I think things over while posting. After mulling over what had been said over night, I put the pieces together. They turned up hated. They were bummed I lost. The only reason that me losing would be a bad thing, is it led to their hated status. Thus, goo had an opportunity to basically bet on the game (ala Pete Rose who only gets talked about in Cincinnati)... As it happens, they essentially said this in a post that I missed in my morning review of events. Then I made a gambler reference because it seemed obvious...
