POE, frankly. I'm spreadsheeting pretty carefully this game and I have most town roles filled. Not to say they all must be correct, but I'm feeling fairly good about most of them.

Sprit more likely than you, because he should have taken the same pause that I did after Jack so vehemently defended rico, instead of rushing right in. But his rushing right in vote for rico looks like an implied defence of you.

Goddamn Edgar Allen always fucks me over.

I apologize for us playing differently. I wish you wouldn't take that as an invitation to vote for me.

Like two ships in the night, I guess.

And people wonder why I fucking despise POE with every iota of my being.

It's not because it doesn't work in general. It's that it doesn't work with me.

I've voiced my opinions, I've gone after people I believed to be baddies. If that isn't enough for you, I'm not sure what else I can do other than shake my head in disapproval of your gameplay and post "Told you so" in dead red after the EOD.

things i find annoying:

golden voting me because of POE >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Rico posting in emoji and going after me for 3 whole day phases

Well, inh... I'm still open to ideas. My vote is not in stone. I hope that Jack comes back and does what I ask him to in respect of his vehement opposition to the rico lynch. I didn't actually trust Jack before that, so... you know, I have to see where this leads. Also, I'm open to a sprityo vote at the moment.

I learned something about you this game, though. It was when you said you can't read people for town signs. I think this is 1) why we think so differently and 2) a big chunk of me figuring out how to better communicate with you. I tend to rely on people looking for town signs (and exhibiting them as well).

I'm going to be completely honest about my mafia philosophy.

Lynching annoying people is pro-town, even if they are town. They derail the thread and make it significantly easier for the mafia to hide.

Rico's behaviour is objectively anti-town, no matter what his role card is.

Rico's the kind of person I'd use a town vig shot on.

I disagree completely. As I said, I think annoying is inherently anti-town, as they distract the thread and cause effort to go into them instead of real solving. Even now, if INH and sprityo are actually bad, rico is a valid distraction for them to use. That's just not good on any level.

Much like those kids who bullied James Dean in Rebel Without A Cause, or Tommy Wiseau in The Room, Ricochet called me a chicken and provoked me into voting for him, which means that I can't react to any new-bandwagon shenanigans Golden or company may want to pull.

Nope. And exactly how long would a step back take in your mind? At what point would it be considered kosher for him to vote Rico?

You obviously give a lot more credit to vague-ass "vehement opposition" than I do, with taking Rico's suspicion of me, and Jack's defense of Rico at face value, at least to a certain degree.

I guess I just don't believe hard enough to convince anyone to vote with me. I just try and use stupid friggin' words, and explain all of my suspicions and opinions extensively, like a total chump.

If I was the kind of person that makes South Park references, specifically to that one scene where Randy Marsh is escorted away by the police while saying "I thought this was America!," I'd use one here to describe Rico's gameplay philosophy.

Also if someone were to find, say, a certain three-letter strategy annoying, could they use it as a motive to lynch someone? Who decides who is annoying? Who watches the proverbial watchment?

Rico's one post regarding LC vote analysis is more useful than anything Wuin has said so far.

I mean Quin replaced in so it's not his fault he has little content but let's not pretend he's produced more than Rico.

Quin is essentially outed as a confirmed town.

Like I said, your reasoning on all fronts is shit (Rico looks worse than everyone you mentioned, and his 'one post' is not more helpful than what any of them have brought to the table, and to suggest otherwise is spin only. Even his LC reads post was not helpful, merely interpretable). So lets forget trying to justify your awful rationale for why you so vehemently support ricochet and get to the guts of the matter.

You know what? Antagonising me when I'm figuring out who to vote for is not overly helpful.

POE is strategy, and not even particularly controversial strategy, but strategy that basically wins town any game they win (even when it's not called by that name). I've lost count of the number of town games I've won because the last scum could only be the person we lynched. Emoji's is shits and giggles. The two aren't comparable on any level.

And btw - I'm not in America, so it's not America.

Well, it's supposed to be the former, but I seem have let my emotions get the better of me......

Rico decided to antagonize me, and so I acted in the konent

There is a certain irony to INH dissuading me from voting for rico, but also... it's not a very self-preserving thing to do, which kind of makes me like him a little in the game context.

I didn't get that either. Those were my reasons for why rico is contributing, rather than the opposite...

He was wrong about LC

And 2 is meaningless.

He did the analysis after LC flipped, though.
