So what you're saying is that they're both scum?

I like Asiina sussing this out and might vote TMM later, but if it turns out to be wrong this is where I'd look first for scum trying to get things rolling.

look I went to bed really early last night and was busy at work today so outside of Asiina's case I needed to get at least a little bit of jokephase in since I basically skipped the whole thing

Bif the only way I could have justified that vote any less would be to just vote without giving any reasoning and then you'd be casing me for that instead

Anyway, this post caught my eye because I cannot figure out why they would bring up hypothetically be cased instead unless they had a guilty mindset, and would like IcePheonix to expand on this.

o before e

Anyways, I'm just sick of people deciding my votes ping them on day one. It's always "IcePhoenix seems like they're overjustifying maybe scum??? :thunk:" and then I just vote with a short justification and it's "IcePhoenix is clearly trying to start a bandwagon, scum???? :thunk" and then if I'm out of thread and see a case that's good and agree with it and vote on it it's "Oh is IcePhoenix bussing? SCUM????????!??!!??!?!?!?! :thunk::thunk::thunk:" and I just don't know what you assholes want from me anymore, and it's really annoying because I would just like to play the whole mafia game instead of constantly defending myself on day one which inevitably carries over to the next days because now I'm a target.

I don't think I put much pressure on you, and I don't like this reaction to my comment.

You didn't individually but you are part of a collective and if you can't see that you must be an umpire/ref

OK

What do you think of the other cases?

I don't like that bif has hedged so much, but the rest of it is a lot of arguing back and forth that will be more relevant after we see a flip or two, IMO.

Despite that, I still feel that TMM is the better vote.

Asiina and Max often agree on things during mafia games. I don't think what they did here with you was scum trying to make a push. You had an ok vote on TMM with decent enough reasons but you came back and defended your vote with a less than great justification.

You're missing bif's involvement, friend

Is there an almanac of player game history/posting habits somewhere, because I just realized that people could probably say anything they like on that front and those without the same length of experience would believe them unless it's called out by other old timers.

You can use votefinder to look at past games but otherwise you sort of have to rely on people calling stuff like that out.

Also I'm gonna ##unvote as well since I agree that TMM looks better today.

I think we should look towards people with fewer posts than me as well because ~my meta~ is to lurk a lot on day one and last I checked I wasn't even close to bottom poster (but that might partially be because of how signups worked) and the last game I was in scum won by basically letting town fight amongst themselves the whole time.

My guy! Push past this! Post some reads.

I'm a big fan of the Wheel of Time series (which is actually finished, unlike Game of Thrones ever will be). I think the last book I read was The Martian, that was really good. Even better than the movie.

You realize that if you are town, all you're doing is making sure that your lynch is easy for scum to jump onto.

So I really do hope you're scum, because if not it's a pretty lovely thing you're doing right now.

Yes well the past 24 hours haven't exactly made me feel like I should help

I get that people saying "I think this is scummy" can be disheartening but you can push past that and say "nah, prove it" or make a case on someone else anyway. There was a long list of people that wanted in on this game, this is lame.

She straight up quit DBZ mafia 2 via requested modkill on like day 5 because we were gonna lynch her, which ended the day super early.

There is probably a discussion to be had about how and why people feel the urge to quit in various games, and how we as a community can try to make that feeling less common, but mischaracterizing past situations and dredging up posts for public call-outs aren�t really the best ways to start that talk.

That's fine but the post I quoted was still an incredibly lovely thing to say and not at all accurate of the situation.

What happened, in your mind?

Scum managed to start a day one train on me because of a post taken out of context (possibly intentionally since it was scum doing so) and since it's day one it was impossible to slow it down.

like look at these votes

So you didn't start talking about the wheel of time series and then say you didn't think you should help?

You had made up your mind at that point, everything I posted was just made as more of a reason that I was scum, which is exactly what I had posted earlier. When you're feeling helpless and nobody is doing anything to help then it's not worth it.
