Keep in mind though Amni appears to not be the intended scum kill. That extra burning does sound like he got double-killed though, so probably an SK (or arsonist?!) was more specifically after him.

yes but he is confirmed town, which i guess doesn't really *mean* much in the grand scheme of "was he right" but it means I can at least read his reads as sincere

Yami Fenrir posted:

Ehhhhhhhh

I'm not seeing Grandi over Rarity/Amni today.

I'll just ##vote Rarity for now. Both to consolidate votes and because I just keep waffling between the two. Rarity's recent posts haven't changed my opinion at all,

Did Sandwolf say anything about Rarity, actually?

Yami Fenrir posted:

L
Honestly both he and Sandwolf do, with the way they just swooped in to declare that "they acquired too many votes too fast" which honestly seems like a horseshit reason to me, especially with the surprisingly big D1 case material in their content.

Both of them seemed too sure that rarity is town for my liking in those early posts if that makes sense? Preemptively distancing from a lunch they know is town, only to then go back on it later anyway because you know, actual case and stuff. I feel like both largely avoided having an actual stated opinion on them? Other than the votecount argument, which I really feel is strenuous.


Second post is talking about distancing in a vote, and it feels like the first post is distancing in there.

I characterize it as "having fun and knowing he (or someone else) will ask me to make an actual read immediately after so I'll do it then"

Hmmmmmmmm now this is interesting. I've been reading Yami as pretty townie but if Grandi is scum after all, that post to try and keep heat on Rarity and Amni instead of Grandi is gonna look real bad indeed.

I'm not totally convinced to stop voting Hal just yet though, I wanna see how he sounds when he's had some time away and is more chillaxed instead of this:

Turns out my brain just doesn't want to work for this (RL) day so I'll strive to get proper reads during this (game) day instead but I want to say that Steak's behavior re: the rarity lunch bothers me.

Honestly both he and Sandwolf do, with the way they just swooped in to declare that "they acquired too many votes too fast" which honestly seems like a horseshit reason to me, especially with the surprisingly big D1 case material in their content.

I only skimmed tho so maybe I'm just seeing things. Does anyone else feel the same?

Been having a look through your posts to avoid falling into the trap of ignoring/soft clearing people who defend me.

Yami Fenrir posted:

Also Rarity's posting is bad, especially this one:


This is forced as all hell, even if it weren't day 1.

##vote Rarity

On re-read, I still can't parse the "even if it weren't" part, could you explain?

Yami Fenrir posted:

Eh, I don't see AC as scum rn.

The hal questioning post IS a bit awkward but I seriously doubt someone's gonna lie about a learning disorder just for the sake of a mafia game.

Other than that I don't think AC is really trying to convince amni of anything like claimed. Plus AC's push on Rarity seems genuine.

this is super thin but "seems genuine" is a phrase I throw around a lot as scum 'cause it's easy. Gut "uh oh" and nothing more here.

Yami Fenrir posted:

My current thoughts on the matter is that Amni is overextending in an attempt to protect a scumbro, which is exactly what he did in the last game I modded.

I think I'd still rather prefer a Rarity lunch because that hal push stinks something fierce and technically there is a chance that Amni's just tunneling, my gut says otherwise though.

In hindsight this feels questionable but I'm having trouble making the "why" words tumble from my head atm.

More generally, I'm contemplating what the field looks like on D1 if scum were arguing for me, against me, poking at both sides, or lurking. Gonna take some re-reading.

Finishing up on Page 15, and while Rarity is the vote today, Amni is another poster worth looking at imo




This is the "press[ing] for more information about a claim"



Calling that a press about a claim is weird phrasing intended to get a reaction. Asking questions is not a scummy thing.



I also do not believe this to be true. While I'm not going to go back to count posts up to this point, Rarity is the highest poster in the game now and I'd be surprised if she hadn't been on every page, which would make it hard to not have an opinion on them! And like this


Just reads as a gotcha to me. If AC had repeated the previous stuff, I am 100% sure Amni would have called them out for +1ing.

This post stinks. That gotcha at the bottom is a gotcha. Looking back it was reasonable for amni to be suspicious about my question, so saying it's not here is bad.

Can you clarify what you mean?

It looks like between this post I am quoting now and the post I quoted previously that you and I both agree it was a gotcha, as in it was something Amni was saying that did not leave you room for defense.

Oct 9, 2012


Right. Okay this makes sense. Should not have smoked while reading.

That said in hindsight knowing that amni is town... idk I don't like how that defense of me looks and I don't see where I said I agreed with you

Okay I see what you mean now by agreeing with you, thought process left here for posterity. That said I feel like yours is more of a reach, whereas his was based in behavior he thought was scummy- your supposition ignores the possibility of my case on Rarity being properly comprehensive instead of old or new posts only.
