What is it you (or I) don't get?

The guy said he was deathproof. I've admittedly played only a few Mafia games but on my understanding, generally making this claim means they're either proving they're town or trying to avoid being lynched by making it seem others are wasting their vote by targeting them.

I said I'd be happy if it turned out he was deathproof because I figured that would make him a trustworthy town :confused:

Having said this, i am not familiar with specific win conditions so maybe this is throwing me off something fundamental

I appreciate and accept your apology!

I dunno, I'm still feeling Lumpen.

Lumpen posted:

I didn't say anything like that at all. I said (twice) that it pinged my gut more than any other post so far this game.

I read that and it was like **record scratch**. That's the depth of my analysis. Your reaction hasn't been reassuring.

I still feel confident voting Quid. Also suspicious of Angelwolf and Jeabus.

The above is not true. He first said "only one post pinged my gut and it was Quid's" and didn't bother to name the post.

The rest is not play, it's just lip-service to appear engaged.

So, I am claiming survivor as ly alignment. This is an alignment that is not town or scum, but a 3rd party that wins if they are alive when the game is over.

I think the person who misses the joke, quoting a post and accusing someone of missing the joke, is perhaps the most poor at reading.

I said amnistar was oddly defensive because he responded seriously to a joke post I made engaging with Humalong's joke calling amnistar a secret nazi.

The joke is that I am taking humalong's accusation seriously.

It is funny because humalong's accusation is absurd.

There is supporting evidence that I did not take the theory seriously, at the time I did not vote amnistar.

Altogether quid and amni have made very strange movements around this interaction.

For a 3rd party death proof survivor you certainly are coming across as somewhat invested in the game, and in pushing oddly opportunistic narratives.

Its a lil scummy and I would vote quid after lumpen.

Right, so if we attempt to lynch you and we fail, then we know your claim is probably genuine.

If we attempt to lynch you and succeed, and you flip town, I'd be sad.

But there's only one way for us to definitely find out (ie, you die) and evidently it makes me look like scum to want to know.

The only person really sticking out to me as scum right now is hum but not quite enough for me to throw a vote at him.

I hope my line of thought here is understandable

So, you were CLEARLY joking about Amni because there's no way you could read his play and think he was invested in the game and worth dunking it over, but actually now that you think about it maybe you had a good point cause he DOES seem invested in the game?

And your plan is to dunk Lumpen and then go with me after if he's...misdunked? Flips scum? You haven't told us?

I honestly don't know what you mean.

I said amni star reacted defensively to a joke comment. I did not make any point about amni stars investment in the game.

I mean you were, you literally said "I'd vote Quid but after Lumpen." Your ignoring my question about whether or not that means you think Lumpen might be town or that we're scum team members or whatever is legit and you just blew over it.

See what I don't get is why a scum Kash would want to act like that. It feels like it would be safer for scum Kash to just keep going instead of backing down. I agree that backing down was weird and awkward, but I don't know if it's specifically scum weird and awkward.
