i didnt believe him until he doubled and tripled down. then there was no real point to him continuing to lie if he was town.

that said, lunching someone who claimed friendly neighbor is the actual stupid part, and people should be talking about that more

Note that tommunist has also ignored my claim of friendly neighbor, which would 100% clear me as town to another player if I am not executed today, because Tommunist doesn't think I'm scum, tommunist just wants me dead.

Well I mean unless you got your scumbuddy to clear you or somehow you were blocked or whoever you told or claimed to tell was killed etc...

ugh this is such a scummy post, i wish i didnt decide to stop tunneling on hal.

Yes. Always vote claimed third party, especially day 1.

Also, since votes are building up, I'm a friendly neighbor. Can confirm myself as town to another player should I live.

This was Amni's claim post. Also on phone so apologies for janky posting

These are not necessarily mutually exclusive points but it feels like a really weird shift in dynamic. He agrees with my argument against Amni (he voted there) but now he�s sure I�m scum?

Yeah I will go back and reread how the end of d1 played out. Especially at those who were pushing him the hardest. I�m usually down to lunch of any 3p claim but scum are especially inclined to 3p hunt disguised as scum hunting.

Once again I think you were right steak. Scum likely weren�t under any pressure yesterday

He was just a friendly neighborhood cop in a game I was in with him, coupled with the suspicion I voiced. Didn't seem farfetched to me. Had anyone listened to my case on cheese, and had enough time I guess, this would be a different discussion.

You also voted him, so I mean pot kettle.

Oh, no, you're correct with my pronouns!
I thought I'd double check in case you were asking me a question or whether you were trying to present something to everyone else because it was weirdly written.

Why do you think I�m scum

Your first interaction with me felt weird:

Sandwolf posted:

these set of posts kind of give me a scum vibe, it kind of felt like you were trying to align yourself with amni and then this feels like weird antagonism

I have no idea why you thought I was trying to align myself with Amnistar. I'm not really trying to align myself with anyone, just trying to work out the alignments of others. I had no specific interaction with Amni until he said he'd vote me for my posts when I was poking Steak. You're the only one that said it felt like I was trying to align myself with Amni and that felt off. Maybe other people felt the same way as you but I doubt that.

Here's the 'weird antagonism' you're referencing:

Amnistar posted:

Would vote elk for this set of posts. Steak has a set of reads not even 2 pages back that could answer these questions

Cloner of the Elks posted:
Alright, so drop that vote down i guess?

Amnistar posted:
sure.
##vote elk

Was it really that weird? Was it really antagonistic? In my mind? No.

- - - - -

I tried to explain this to you and I heard nothing back. No confirmation, no "Oh, OK, I see", no "I don't believe you". It felt like a 'I'm just going to plop this here for everyone to read and then move on' kind of move, and it's weird to me.

Sandwolf posted:

you were saying many things that Amni was saying and then suddenly there is little drama between you two

Cloner of the Elks posted:
Ah, I see where you're coming from now. I didn't think I was mirroring what Amnistar was saying but I guess can understand if you think that was the situation.
But also remember that Amnistar started the 'little drama' whilst I was, not sure what the word is, poking? Steak.

Amnistar posted:

He said he 'would' vote me and I told him to lay it down instead of just saying it, I don't feel any specific aggression here

Steak made an interesting post:

Mr. Steak posted:

this game has a plague of hypocrites. can we make it a rule that you need to have stated serious scum reads before asking the same of others?

(sandwolf?)

Here was your response:

Sandwolf posted:

I also still have a vote on GG steak and am happy to have my vote there, what the hell?

And his, saying he didn't consider it a proper vote:

Sandwolf posted:

Mr. Steak posted:
ngl i am not considering gumball a proper vote lol

Now, I get I was frustrated by Steak yesterday, but he had a point - and you didn't come back to him on this.

- - - - -

This post struck me as odd. You had more friction with Steak than anyone yet he was the one you were least willing to vote.

Sandwolf posted:

Deadline in 4 hours.

I�m happy with my vote but I think I�d vote Amnistar, then almost anyone rn. Prolly not steak.

Having said this, you did vote Amnistar leading up to deadline, apparently to avoid a no lynch scenario.

- - - - -

D1 you made a lot of 'x post is scummy!' claims but never followed through with anything. From what I read, it appeared to me that you lacked opinions of your own. You seem constantly perplexed through the game so far and I'm sure you're normally more composed than this.

On top, you either genuinely made a mistake about my voting history or deliberately attempted to convince others of a false past.

I'm not dead certain you are scum, but I do have a lean on you over everyone else right now, and b-minus1 is close behind.

I appreciate I'm not a well experienced mafia player but I'm calling it how I see it
