    Could you give reads on Citrus and Lee anyway?

    fontisian: why didn't you self-vote at the end of the day?

    Oh, also this fonti. Please explain this shift in your reads.

    Atum, who do you think we should lynch today? What about tomorrow?

    Xanidel, please respond to Waco's post about you.

    TerRaine, your last post is okay, probably nothing you couldn't come up with as scum though. And I'm not seeing any proactive scumhunting from you.

    Could you respond to fontisian's case on you from yesterday? She made some okay points, despite being mafia, and you just ignored it.

    1. Because duh.
    2. Titus flipped town, and Rubicon gets a light town read for unvoting instead of pushing the mislynch on me through, so the other people on the wagon get more scrutiny.

    Ugh, didn't I have an unaligned read on Ter and Atum?

    I'm so not in the right headspace for this game.

    I'm still planning to lynch you, just not for another couple weeks.

    What if we lynched the scum on my wagon and you realize I'm town instead?

    Rubi: If you insist.

    I watched and learned from both the thread in general and replies to my own posts, trying to figure out how I am best suited to play this game if at all. Does my attitude shift over the course of two weeks in my first game really surprise you that much?

    Why should anyone have to insist in order for you to respond to others?

    So what specifically led you to shift your attitude from

    "the risk of accidentally lynching another town vs doing nothing is almost always worth it ... the key is to always lynch"

    to

    "looks like a no lynch, better than a mislynch"

    ?

    Never read it to be honest. Gonna admit I didn't give much thought to her yet in regards to D2. Give that path some room to breath really because freedom ends with people giving themselves away just as much as pressure sometimes. You need to consider the fact I'm not too concerned with Fonti right not. Up a few posts are reads for those players I'm more concerned with. Never going to win this game if town latches on to just Fonti. Gonna try something different this game, because the last few games have showed me I have a harsh conf bias so I figured I'd start D2 different. Let me focus on the the others and see what else is suspicious kind of mindset. You aren't really doing anything different yourself. Down at the bottomish portion of my list there are other people who intrigue me more than fonti but if you insist.

    Never post contradictions where I can just bring them back up in a quoute.

    Gonna explain why its weird I ignored her pressure when it made me look town a few days ago? Run up a list a reasons or points where I ignored her defensive spazzing because all I'm seeing is 928 which is a shit post. Around and around because its just spinning the same shit she said D1 where I point out her flaws and she says "no they're not". And that's why it didn't ping me because my stance on her D1 was a strong one. Desert this path Rubicon ping ponging Rubicon. You were more useful to the rest of town when you were honing in on actual scum


    Atum a response to all your scummy behavior I highlighted?

    Pinky: Because it didn't seem to be a question or request directed at me. Yours is a question, Rubicon's a request, Waco's is simply a statement of opinion. One I felt the answer to was fairly obvious.

    Rubicon: At the time of the former, any lynch theoretically had a 1/3 of getting scum, and I hadn't gotten used to this game taking weeks rather than days. By the latter, we were facing a lynch against someone I was leaning on being town, with the only other option being a nolynch.

    Would you respond to her post anyway? If it's bullshit, tear it apart.

    The relevant posts are around pages 32-34.

    It's not necessarily weird that you ignored her, but that doesn't mean I'm not interested in what you think of what she said.

    This isn't me calling you scum. It's me saying hey, with Plotless and fluffiness dead, my PoE pool has shrunk to a list of specific players. I need to look more closely at each of those players and see if I'm missing anything.

    I don't think you've done anything obviously 100% town that should make me not want to press you.

    I have my setting set to 100 posts per page so Im only at 11.

    But That's the thing....I re read D2 and all I saw was the one post I mentioned where she says I ignored her pointing out where my points on her dont work D1. There's no examples where I did that. There's no part where she says Look I pointed out the sky was Blue when Terraine said here it was pink.

    I'm not gonna waste my time go through 900+ posts for such a weak accusation.

    You said my attack of Von didn't make sense because he was being snarky, when I said he wasn't. This made absolutely no sense, because it had nothing to do with my case.

    That was one of many things I said made no sense about your case. Your nit picking.

    You mentioned one of the things about snow was he was snarky as town and he wasn't in this game. I pointed out he was so that was a useless point.

    That point was not a part of my case.

    ---------- Post automerged at 10:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:51 PM ----------

    Sequence of events:
    I make a case.
    Several days pass.
    Rubicon says Von is town because he's snarky.
    I say Von isn't snarky.
    You say Von is snarky, therefore my case that he doesn't play like this as a power role is disproved.

    That sequences made no sense and showed that you weren't paying attention.
