yami's right, you kind of just said that toal

A chain lynch is saying 'if we kill x today and they're town, we should kill y tomorrow'.

What I referred to as a multi-lynch, the plurality lynch, is a whole other thing. Yami should know this.

Here you go putting words in people's mouth and you wonder why you look scummy. Defending a scumbro is just one possibility, pocketing a townie is another. Maybe Jimmy is town and you as scum know he's town, so that's why you know the case is bad. Lets you look all nice and involved casing someone new instead of just lazy-voting Jimmy.

I really don't like how you're pushing the idea that you can only be cased if Jimmy is a scumbro you're defending. You're not scummy for defending Jimmy, Jimmy's alignment doesn't even matter when you already look plenty scummy enough for how you made your case against Yami.

##vote Toal

prolly not moving my vote anymore

Yami Fenrir posted:



All in all this reads to me as a BAD, BAD attack on a case in an attempt to protect a scumbuddy. However, I am willing to entertain the idea of Jimmy being scummed.


Here's the literal wording in Yami's case.

Hope it helps bif!

yeah, I did see that cause I went to go look again but I still really don't like how Toal is framing everything up like the case is only worthwhile if Yami's right about Toal AND Jimmy. I'm feeling more like Jimmy is town, he was just the first thing to get anything close to a serious case, so Toal decided to ride on in and use that to attack Yami.

It always drives me up the wall when people get all up in arms about the literal first cases of D1 being bad, like that earns them any cred at all

Nice sidestep with reasons that weren't apart of the original post and digging in bif!

Because scum might be giving up the possibility of a plurality lunch, I think that scumteam is probably... Bif, Yami, and DB.

I think Bif interjected to purposefully shift the conversation off of Yami ignoring the definitions of pretty basic mafia terms to try and poke holes in my case.

If Onset is scum he's at least playing with me and I appreciate it but right now it sort of comes across as townie.

Bifauxnen posted:

and what is this, vote somebody or give an opinion on something would ya

This is why I'm coming down so hard on your Yami case, Toal. gently caress all was happening almost day except some people starting to pile on Jimmy but instead of seeing that as a problem with the rest of the thread doing jack poo poo, you came down on the one guy who got that tiny pittance of D1 content even started. Yami actually trying to case somebody D1 even though the cases still suck doesn't make him scummy, on the contrary it is a very townie thing to do.

Yeah but I think it came from a scummy mindset.

I've explained why putting in effort and casing people as scum is good, and that case on Jimmy is the perfect scum case to make on town. Casing people as scum means that the vote doesn't swing onto a scum by accident late game.

It doesn't explain why Jimmy is scummy, only insinuates that Jimmy is scum for ~*~ reasons ~*~. that he doesn't explain very well, being hedgy about pushing a button is not scummy.

It's worth noting that you're also voting the person who's putting a sizable amount of effort into the game, playing mafia. So that point doesn't really track well.

Why is my effort bad and Yami's effort good?

Toalpaz
Mar 20, 2012

Peace through overwhelming determination
I'll be more clear, if you actually thought not voting people who put in effort is a valid point then you would probably look at Yami and I and call it a town slap fight.

You don't think that because I assume you have some vested interest in not reading the game in a natural way.

Yeah I'd still be willing to do Yami, ideally I just want to wait until someone else is on him because there's no reason to risk multi lunches on town.

I pointed out earlier that OO was playing nice with me, but it was very much in the 'this player's flipping town and end of day I wont be convinced and vote Toal.

First interaction is with Onset. Notably we know nothing about what came out of this question?

Onset do you want something cool?

I suggest this:

Daycop DB or Onset I guarantee we're getting a scum result

Yami runs interference:

Yami Fenrir posted:

How about we daycop toal instead so we know if we should lynch them when they start going insane again

I point out the connections between these three players here:

So db, yami, and onset? Ok.

You really are grasping at straws here.

The reason why I think Yami and Onset relied on the 'toal is irrational' type of defense is because I based my early content on gut reads of early scum interactions, and that's hard to attack with words and logic.

Yami had the chance to check in, it's like the afternoon for them now.
