Man this is a lot of words complaining about having to do anything. I really don't like this, it strikes me as pre-emptively setting up a defense for lovely posting

What it is is that I post lovely, people act like it's some kind of terrifying harbinger of death and destruction, I explain why my posts are lovely (in what is, let's be honest, a not-entirely-lovely post) and then people continue to get paranoid about lovely posts.

Like game day 5 or real life day 5, because that's some serious pre-justification for not playing seriously.

Hey man, I used to be (and still am :v:) really bad at this game, but things like this and the presumption that more words = better content are two things that used to keep me in a really mediocre place as a Mafia player. Get over those two things and then I think you'll enjoy it more.

We know this is a role heavy game, but the question of just how "unconventional" this game may be hasn't come up. And looking at things here there is a definite sense of multiple agendas being played, more so than the typical game.

I said it was scummy to pre-apologise for poo poo-posts. Basically a way to excuse yourself from the thread and discussion. If you can't see how being unwilling to play can come across as scummy, then I don't know what you think mafia is about. Can you clarify a simple point: what do you mean by day 5? Game day 5, or in real life 5 days into the game, which would be monday or tuesday. It was a fairly simple question and you're getting way too defensive and put out by it. If you want a simple explanation of why this all looks rather scummy it is because scum are generally far more concerned about appearances than town due to the nature of the game. It wasn't the poo poo posting, it was that you felt the need to explain yourself at the drop of a hat.

What is it I want you to do, apart from scum hunt? Relax and stop caring about how you're perceived.

I think you're getting way too defensive and put out over an incredibly stupid question. Maybe I should have said 500 and you would get the hyperbole. I'm sorry that you seem to think jumping down my poo poo is a good way to cover you're driving for an easy town target early.

I'm proud of you, Bender. Sure, you lost. You lost bad. But the important thing is I beat up someone who hurt my feelings in high school.

EXAKT Science posted:

As far as changing my vote, I really empathize with the fact that Allen's a newbie and that it's easy to confuse that with being scum, so I backed off. Also, f_v apparently thinks that I'm scum for wanting to use my vote as a point of pressure, which makes no sense at loving all. My bowmore vote was partially a flippant response to f_v, but he is my number one scum candidate right now.

Thats not true. I voted you because your vote for Allen wasn't "dude is scum" but was "he's acting different" and "lets see what happens when I vote him". I thought your vote was bad because of that. You put yourself in a position where, if Allen flips town, you can point back to your justification of "different" even though you never explained how that difference makes him scum.
