The post that ANarc literally just responded to, clearly showing that she didn't call you out for lurking, but rather for not putting any effort whatsoever into your votes/cases which is exactly what you're doing?

"You provided no explanation."

"Here is the explanation."

"Nope no explanation at all!"

You don't even acknowledge you are making things up, such as never calling out ANarc until later in the day. Between this and what KB has pointed out, it tells me you aren't actually interested in reading the thread, you're just constructing a narrative and when shown evidence that you are wrong you completely ignore it and instead double down on your opinion based on lies.

As for ANarc's point, her phrasing of "is going to barely put any effort into the game" I, and others who cased her afterwards using the same logic, interpreted that as saying that I was not going to post. Whether she just meant shitposting instead I don't know (but as I explained to bowmore that's not my meta that she is continuing to use against me). The fact that she apparently didn't mean lurking still means she's casing me and has continued to case me on things that did not happen. She cased me early on saying that I was going to not put effort in in the future, and she's casing me now and still backing up that claim when I have the third highest number of posts in the game and am clearly putting in a whole lot of effort.

It was a bad case then and it's a bad case now.

This is not a joke vote.

AnonymousNarcotics posted:

What the heck is this? Looks to me like scum asiina who hates being scum and is going to barely put any effort into the game.

This was, as I said, a fair interpretation by ANarc. Who looks at a lame-rear end D1 joke-phase claim and checks out a few minutes after the game starts. In ANarc's words, "Scum Asiina."

Asiina posted:

What does this first sentence even mean? It is utterly contentless.

If that is ANarc's argument it is wrong. Like I feel like I have to do this every single goddamn game, but if you're going to use a garbage meta argument as your sole argument you drat well get it right.

I have a meta, it's that I don't post when I'm scum. It's actually not really true anymore I've gotten a lot better, but whatever, pretend it is. It's the easiest meta in the whole drat community. It's not shitposting, it's not posting white noise, it's not posting dumb arguments or defending or anything like that. It's literally not posting. If I'm posting then the meta read doesn't apply.

Yes, self-meta is a garbage defense, but using an incorrect meta (that is outdated) is a garbage case and I become more convinced every time that people who make bad false meta cases are scum because you can say that literally any time I'm not posting multi-quote cases that I'm in my scum meta and people who don't know me better will believe it.

AnonymousNarcotics posted:

What the absolute gently caress why are you voting me for doing exactly that?

I said if she's scum she isn't going to put any effort into the game. Posting videos of music is not playing the game. Your logic is scummy af

You have a lot of posts, Asiina, and a lot of them were contentless shitposts in jokephase. Also, regardless of your meta, you laying down a vote on chores and then saying you're going to check out until D2 is scummy as hell. You, KB, and I guess CPig are dismissing it as a meta argument, but it works as a "Scummy generic player" argument too.

Also, do I seriously have to point out that the prime scumspect for today is a player who picked out someone voting for the easiest lynch in the game (chores claiming sk) who happened to flip town, and sticking with that case?

Like, in what universe does scum ANarc see a lunch like that developing and think to herself, "I'm gonna go in and defend chores and make myself a target, because that's how I play scum."

Maybe that's her grand strategy, I don't know, but if I were scum I would have let chores dig his own grave there. A lot of players did.

For the millionth time, I didn't say anything about asiina lurking. Here's that post:


It's a known meta, not that asiina lurks as scum, but that she doesn't like being scum. So this drive by vote with a terrible reason and her specifically stating that she wouldn't change it, seems a lot to me like barely any effort.

So what are you even arguing here?

I like this post the best because it is the one that demonstrates the complete fabrication of this narrative.

I voted first. Inf voted at -2. There was a whole bunch of people who voted in the interim and also people who said they didn't regret the lynch after it happened, but Inf and I are scum manipulating poor dumb town because?

Your reasons don't line up with reality. What about what happened makes both inf and I scum, but everyone else innocent?

It's the theory I'm working with and I'm entitled to that. Less fabricated narrative and more that's the conclusion I arrived at.

The placement of the votes by you and Infinitum, as you point out, is unlikely to be coordinated and arguing with infinitum, I felt a little better about his rationale, but I honestly don't find your initial stance and responses to the questions to be genuine. Even though you made more posts following the vote, they were mostly innocuous and had little to do with the actual game.

Normal? I'm not sure. Honestly when I'm scum I type up twice as many posts as I actually submit, and I don't filter as much as town. I find it's a lot more effective to sit and let town snipe at each other than get overly involved. Yeah, I'm giving up my scum meta but as much as people picked up on it in ANarc's game, without Quid nk'ing me I would have had them.

Scum Tobbs is careful, town Tobbs not so much. I'd be better at playing town if I played like I do when I'm scum, but it takes more effort. If I get lynched when I'm town, it's towns' dumb rear end fault because I'm not scum I just post too much. If I was scum and I got lynched for careless play I'd feel bad, so I do a lot more to try and seem less scummy.

Self-meta is dumb but here we are.

I went back and counted and if you discount chiptune chat, more than half of Asiina's posts were directly relevant to this game of Mafia. "Mostly" seems like a mischaracterization.

Anyway, it really seems to me like this argument isn't based on what actually happened D1. Yes, Asiina said she'd check out, and then she came back and posted. Most of it's even relevant. The only thing that stood out to me was the "I have a theory on Cpig" thing that got changed to a gut read today, which I would like to hear more about.

oh, I understand. to be honest, I forgot there was a post limit.

Anyway, here's some random thoughts that I just want to share. Though I find flavor arguments to be bad and wrong, especially in this game, I find Asiina change from "I got a cool accessory" to "I got a crap accessory" kinda odd.

Though, at the same time, I don't think it makes sense for Asiina to implicate themselves like that. I don't think there's any benefits for her to do that if she's scum? Very strange. In my mind, she's probably town but I won't lie, that inconsistency is quite odd.

Also even though I didn't vote for Chores, I completely understand why people would do so. It seems more beneficial to lynch a potential SK at D1 than to let them run rampant and potentially kill off either a talkative townie. So I don't think it's fair to judge people are scum just because of that.

There seems to be a poo poo ton of weird bad arguments coming from Tobbs that could either odd approaches towards scum hunting with all the meta and flavor stuff... or it could seem that there's really not that much information and he's deflecting any and all suspicion away from himself.

I don't buy that you "forgot" there was a post limit. This post comes across as trying to placate, especially since none of these opinions in this post are original or even remotely controversial. It's just a bunch of easy comments and reads to me like you're trying to make it look like you're participating when you actually aren't.

It is interesting to me that Anarc, having gotten the conversation going w/r/t Asiina, has kind of stepped back and not been visible while Tobbs and AA have pushed the case. As someone else noted, she hasn't plonked down a vote in this game yet. It feels like she's flying under the radar now that the discussion is going a bit more. I would be interested to hear what her views are on the last couple pages.

This makes me more confident in my vote. The last two games I played with him, TM was scum hunting, asking questions, stuff like that. Even in Cat Lady Mafia when I misread him, he was asking questions of other players that were at least relevant to the game. His posts this game have been totally disconnected with the game and more just non-sequiturs/jokephase stuff, and like TQ notes two or three posts above me the only reads he's given - which required prompting - were super bland and recycled.
