None of you have the refined senses necessary to enjoy the self-amused ramblings of a mad man.

In any case, since pushing a button can kill you. I think everyone should at least push it once as a measure of good faith. Who has yet to press the button.

All I'm saying is that you went on a setup spec and night action bingo rampage and revealed most town roles to scum before getting lunched in pokeman and maybe we should prevent the same from happening again.

Toal's posts transcend alignment. From what I've seen they've posted ridiculously scummy stuff as both town and, well, scum.

This time I feel they're maybe a bit too jumpy, though.

That'd be a bad precedent to set. I think it's more that this is what toal did in a specific game that kinda ended up detrimental to town.

I think it seems potentially careless if anything since the effects of the button are revealed in-thread. If too few people push the button it gives scum a potentially easy targeting decision. Once many people have pushed it the potential danger of that goes down I think.

If you're not sure if you should push a button in a game called push button, you need to rethink your life choices.

First you're saying it's suspicious, now you're just scared.

Who would be scared of pushing the button while also trying to shade people pushing the button?

Scum, that's who.

The optimal strat would be to wait until Solus is sleeping, and then everyone push the button at least 1000x

that's what i thought but then he started giving poo poo like "vignettists" which kind of reveals nothing.
are the effects all good? did anybody get something that was objectively bad...?
like, there has to be a reason why pushing the button isn't just categorically a good idea.
i initially thought the reason would be "the entire thread knows your reward" but now that's kind of not true anymore.... so...

I'm going to select someone who has not pushed the button by the end of the day to vig. So your choice is to press the button and maybe get vigged or not push the button and really get vigged.

I think it's a little unfair to say it was detrimental to town, considering I spent the whole day arguing to lunch someone who turned out to be scum for reasons that turned out to be all correct (our roles filled similar functions, scum claimed in a weird and bad way that looked bad with no details, and scum offered very little reads).

I spent most of that game arguing against 3 townies who were just so sure it was my scum game for bad meta reasons that it looked bad, because to them I just had to be lying. However most of town was uncomfortable voting me end of day with half the votes lunching me being not town.

As much as certain people point to me and say I really screwed that up d2, I did everything I could to play a decent game. Watching town drop the ball and get led by the nose by scum the rest of the game made me feel a lot better, especially cpig constantly promising he was going to reread the game before failing to do that and showing up at deadline to hammer town 2 days in the row, as town, after berating me for being obvious lying scum.

I'm sorry toal, I didnt mean it as an attack. I was just reinterpreting that post to read as I interpreted it.

Mostly for the sake that offset and others wouldn't say, "Oh, well if that was his town game and it is similar... :thunk:"
