    What if I told you I've only ever used copypasta as a villager and never done it as a wolf?

    Like, a lil’ bit of disrespect to me as a player. Yes, I have tunneled in the past. Otoh, I pushed Town!Font alongside Scum!Cuth Scum!Vira and Scum!Miner so calling my reads coinflips sounds hard. I can agree that it’s a coinflip for you to lynch me though.

    Considering that and the fact that I’m the easiest lynch to get this game, why waste thread pushing me D1? There’s people you can actually read here, and you can get the lynch on me any day?

    Yes, you should ofc play the game. No, I’m not known as a Newcomb whisperer myself. Your push on me is bad though, and a bunch of your posts read overexplainy/fake.

    Now, can I once again ask why my observation about Fonti and myself reading people differently merited red highlights and such?

    This morphed into something different, but this sentence is my thoughts on jari.
    It was the same thing when Jan and I were talking about gemma. Jan was saying singleminded meaning the thug part, and I talked about her isoing fonti and he responded like she came in and tunelled fonti. He hadn't read it, he was just conversing with us about it.
    He's not thinking critically.

    The rub is, I'm not sure that's scum indicative for him. Like, I could see town jari having never really read properly but wanting to engage anyway.
    But even if he is scum, that's still what he's doing so the rest of fonti's reasoning where he's positioning himself like so or doing whatever she's saying he's doing is probably a reach. Not necessarily intentional, I've seen fonti overcomplicate plenty.
    --- Post automerged ---
    Man I really hate this post.

    The jari part is just... whiteknighting
    And the change to Delph looks like scum trying to keep up their progression. It's like he's finding a present that he left for himself, not actually working through his thoughts
    --- Post automerged ---
    None taken, and in fact this is exactly why I should be lump.
    Scum having to use precious kp on me is a huge victory.
    --- Post automerged ---
    And yes the priest should always be checking the lump. This is nonnegotiable

    Scum having to KP you isn't a victory this game, tom, you're actually doing shit.

    Scum having to KP Jari IS a victory because he's doing less shit.

    Also can I get your towncase on Delph or do you think I'm hellbussing again?
    --- Post automerged ---
    oh also fuck you for "finding a present I left for myself" my scumgame is way better organized than that

    like if I ever have a scumgame where I'm struggling to find a hapless townie to shit on then I'm going to hang up my mafia hat in shame
    --- Post automerged ---
    (...er, sorry, that was probably overly hostile. I'm used to "fuck you" being milder than everyone else thinks it is among a small group of people I talk with regularly. Replace with "pthhhbt you" for approximate vitriol level)
    --- Post automerged ---
    I'm bored and I want to harass everyone who's voted for me but I'm pretty sure they're just misdirected town >_>

    Should I?

    I thought she was kinda scummy
    --- Post automerged ---
    And yeah I realized I was being too towny to get lumped im dialing it back a bit.
    Was thinking about scumslipping

    Come join me in pressuring her then, it'll be more productive than attempting to pressure me probably :V
    --- Post automerged ---
    (more seriously, from your POV the possible worlds where I'm scum are "Delph is town" or "DC is hellbussing" and I was charitably assuming you'd believe I'd learned my lesson from That Game

    you know which one I'm talking about :v)

    I am back to thinking Waco is town.

    dC is giving me the heeby-jeebies.

    I’m sad that my mal read is dwindling.

    I'm pretty sure mal is just stuck in catchup hell and not here to post very much? Like I wouldn't let the read slip because of raw inactivity in this context.

    Unless it was a recent mal post that you weren't a fan of?

    I like pressuring you.

    And from my POV I barely care about teambuilding rn but I haven't noted that the two of you aren't w/w so
    Bus harder I guess?

    Gladly! I'll worry about clearing myself once she dies.

    (I mean, assuming she's actually scum and actually gets lynched which given lolD1 isn't particularly likely on either count)

    You remember the part where we don't even know if she's scum if we lynch her, right?

    I mean we'll probably ~Know for reasons iirc but not necessarily

    Details.

    ...by which I mean no ._.
    --- Post automerged ---
    Uh, doesn't look like we'll find out particularly quickly? It's like, graverobber only and that's a one-off that's almost certainly not getting blown on the D1 lynch.

    I'm not exactly the mech guy.
    Something to do with angels i think?

    Idr I've actually never been an angel. I've always either endgamed or been scum
    --- Post automerged ---
    There's a few ways that, taken together, give overlapping info.

    There's, like, a kill that triggers if we mislynch twice?

    Huh, I don't think I have either, same reasoning (although I've played, like, two games with angels so :v)

    That said, I think what you're remembering is the "use angel protect with vigilante to generate information" exploit which I'm pretty sure is impractical here (or it would have been patched already since LAST time it happened)

    PREVIEW EDIT: Yeah I think that's what you're describing. Hmm, one sec.
    --- Post automerged ---
    Oh, right, dur, if vig goes off we know we missed twice. I remember this from PsychicHunt where it turned out vig wasn't actually in the game >_>
    --- Post automerged ---
    I don't think there's a good way to abuse angel mechanics using it...oh, most of all because rules don't say angels get gameknowledge so they're presumably protecting blind. Also the whole "game is small and faffing about like that two mislynches down is a good way to lose" thing

    Angels see actions iirc. They know more than us at least.

    Doesn't matter someone will figure it out and I will sheep it and they'll be scum and ill be wrong forever because my premises are faulty

    At least that's how I remember witchhunts going

    Actually last time there was an angel plan and I was in the game it basically forced a concession. Even though the whole thing hinged on the Hunter shot and the Hunter was scum. It was pretty impressive, and also why I'm pretty sure there's no abuse case here (it led to widespread patching of angel exploits)

    OP says angels see the Priest check result, but that's about it. I guess it could be useful in a sort of "rescue the vig target if player X is known scum" sense, but it's a real long shot b/c it relies on the Priest check having actually targeted someone we want info on.
    --- Post automerged ---
    (but yeah in the previous case angels knew alignments, so there was like this stupid binary encode thing where they could send up to 3 bits of information and we were trying to get as much info as we could out of it

    or maybe that was another game? This one might have just been "let player X die if player Y is scum". Either way)

    Yeah I'm looking through there's a lot less info to be had than I remembered.
    Might never have been town in a tinyhunt before only witchhunt...
    --- Post automerged ---
    Well, I'll be confirmed town. Hopefully another priest check or two.
    We won't lynch some roles, and we'll mostly know night deaths are town. We get the vig wakeup call if we suck real bad.
    It'll be fine just fine

    Angels only know Priest checks in this setup, I think

    Also dead town and scum are all considered Angels :V
