Right then.

First and foremost, I know that when I play mafia I'm usually always strong point of contention due to my play style. I'm boisterous, opinionated, and a gigantic sarcastic arsehole. A lot of times I'll say something D1 that someone will latch onto, and my words will get spun into whatever narrative scum wants to run with.
That's fine, I know this.
That's how the game is played.

So what if I dangled a tantalising little fishy on a hook just before I went to bed?


Look at that.
It's such an ambiguously provocative statement, how could you NOT react to it as scum?
That's your spin doctor bread and butter right there.
"Holy poo poo Infinitum said something dumb, better jump right the gently caress on that one"

And guess what? They took the bait.


I did have a reason, and I stated it before. I agreed with AA's case on CPig


Then in swoops AA.
Suddenly the man who was giving out treats with no good logic behind it, and had cased CPig for being non-commital can see the scumminess in my post? Both CPig and AA know I'm an intelligent player, KNOW how much I love making cases, and they KNOW I'd never just pop down a Me-2 vote without having my reasons.

"But Inf. Wasn't AA voting for CPig?" I hear you ask?
Yes, but take a look at the posts in context. Cpig votes for me, and then AA joins in IMMEDIATELY afterwards.
As I said it was meant to be a provocative post to draw scum in.

All I'm seeing is AA bussing CPig early game for Town Cred, as CPig was at the time the likeliest lynch candidate, and then IMMEDIATELY jumping on whatever case his scumbro could make.

:bustem:

---------------------------------------------
tl;dr

AA+CPig scum
AA bussed CPig early for town cred
Both took bait I left hook line and sinker.

Of the 2, CPig is a more difficult read and would prefer him gone today. (All of his posts are "This is a stupid vote" or "I agree with this" nonsense)
It will be easier to read AA later.

##vote CPig

Lmao this is horrible reasoning. First of all you were the only vote on me that didn't have a reason. Just a contentless vote that is scummy. You act like you have this masterstroke case that amounts to poo poo (because you are wrong) writing lots of words doesn't make you right. You dropped a lovely me too vote on me and I called you out on it and now to act like the puppet master. And kb, I'm embarrased for you that you fell for it.

Now suddenly he's feeling infi and Derp is his read for towniest mofo in the game because he treats him.

Yeah, nope.

Jimson is scum.

I did have a reason.

If you actually read my post instead of going with a kneejerk "THIS POST IS STUPID AND YOU'RE STUPID IF YOU BELIEVE IT" you'd see that I agreed with the initial casing by AA, and then put down a single vote followed by the statement to draw you in.
And you fell for it.

This post just confirms my suspicions of you all the more mate.
You didn't even bother reading the case I made against you.

I do but, I did not say you were dumb or an idiot in your "case" I just said it was wrong and your whole :master: case is full of ridiculous assumption and really isn't even close as much of a "gotcha" as you seem to think it is. you literally voted me without a word, just a contentless vote and a paragraph basically proclaiming that you were going to bed and no matter how you try to spin it, that is scummy behavior and isn't even close to the "hook" you seem to think it is.

I'd vote Jimson, he certainly could be scum, I just don't think scum would make such a stupid loving mistake. Jimson's not thinking and I don't know if that's indicative of alignment.

I'm honestly fine with either CPig of Jimbo.
My preference is on CPig mainly due to the fact how easily he took the bait.

I've got some housework to do, but I'll be about to vote either of them.

Hell we could split the difference and vote AA. I'd be fine with that as well.

Like I don;t know how much clearer I can be, your case is based in nothing , it is a nothing case that was manufactured in your own head saying you created a "honeypot" is assinine and ridiculous.

If someone does something scummy , and then calls it a honeypot after the fact it is not valid or a good case.
