Not really. You said K-ness implied knowing DH was town and that DH was arguing against that. Which would make both scum, or so it would imply. It's more of a phhhft statement that doesn't go anywhere really. That's how I read it.

I get that. That's why the whole statement is kind of nonsense in itself. I don't know what to do with it.Jackofhearts2005 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 08, 2018 5:14 pmI was expressing confusion that DH was arguing against it.
If Kness knew DH was town, that would mean DH is town (or at least not mafia). If both were scum, Kness can't possibly slip and give away that he knows DH is town because he knows DH isn't town.
Yes. At least you said something like "we're in pretty bas shape" or something.

I don't think all three remaining scum are inactive, though, so we can put things off.
Lol. You think I'm just making shit up? In any case, it's a pretty standard mindset slip thing, that scum are usually more critical of town and town more critical of scum. Doesn't mean it's foolproof or black and white, most things in mafia aren't. But it is a thing. So yeah, it is something I would consider, and why LC brought it up in the first place (I think it was him).DharmaHelper wrote: ↑Mon Oct 08, 2018 5:20 pmI don't usually like to defend myself from shit in past games so I won't do that unless you're like...insistent on using it in this game without like, quoting it or whatever.

I... might go on a rant about this after the game.
I don't think you're making it up, I just don't give a shit to defend against it unless you pull quotes and make a thing of it. It was a different game...

That would be boring, but also kind of hilarious. Anyway, with the warning from Epi, I would worry less about the total inactives. But maybe look at those trying to pass as just active enough.speedchuck wrote: ↑Mon Oct 08, 2018 5:20 pmThat's the elephant in the room.

Well, the point is not that it was you, specifically, who did it. The point was more that it is a mindset thing that is more common among those playing a scum role than those playing as town.DharmaHelper wrote: ↑Mon Oct 08, 2018 5:24 pmI don't think you're making it up, I just don't give a shit to defend against it unless you pull quotes and make a thing of it.

Here's why: Usually players have some level of emotional investment in games, especially if they are active. With this there is a variable amount of ego attached to succeeding or failing. A town player has little information and it's usually a pretty difficult and sometimes helpless place to be. But of course, you are rooting for your side. So to be the player that mocks town as a whole and also seasons with statements like "I've solved the game. I'm the one to figure everything out" makes them a player that puts themselves above the others not only in skill, but (usually) in responsibility. The risk is higher. The fall is greater. The ego is more vulnerable. Of course, if you aren't town, none of this applies. Then mocking is just fun and serves as a way to discredit other players and leaks smugness.
This doesn't apply to every case or every player. It always depends. But that's why it concerns me.

1. I don't care.Dyslexicon wrote: ↑Mon Oct 08, 2018 5:40 pm The most compelling points against Dharma for me are:
- Mocking town and boasting about having solved the game before it's actually solved.
- Shutting down other players for example by beating the ewwws and the meows until there never was a horse there in the first place. This is not necessary. Everyone can see that lose votes are lose votes.
- Being rather superficial in his suspicions. Or at least, that's my general take away.
The most compelling points against K-Ness for me are:
- Really, really not doing much all game. I realize that he is used to playing differently, but I don't really see him follow up where his suspicions lie.
- I still don't get why he voted Bullz over his actual suspicion. This is one thing that makes K-Ness/Jack a possibility.

That's fine. You're not the one who's controlling my vote. But I think what I'm trying to express is roughly the same as LC and others have been getting at as well. But they can comment on that themselves.

If you stop for a second, and get out or your feels or pretend feels or whatever is the case, you may want to do some listening as well. My suspicion was not "meow". That was not a direct suspicion as much as a place to start investigating at a point of little direction. I'm clearly not proposing "meow" as a point of suspicion and I never have. You must be aware of this, you are not that dumb.DharmaHelper wrote: ↑Mon Oct 08, 2018 5:45 pm"I think a point against DH is how superficial his suspicions are" says the guy whose suspicions include "Meow."
Alright, noted. I am trying to take into account that you are coming off more, what should I say, playfully aggressive (?) than many other players.

Again, the only thing you are doing now is trying to discredit me. You've spent a lot of energy trying to discredit your accusers. But if you are town, what should matter is what alignment your accusers are playing. Why do I feel like you are more interested in showing everyone how incredibly dumb you perceive me to be in the context of this game rather than actually trying to figure me out?
