See d3 of GoC where I'm fairly sure I dropped there; and on MU I nearly had to remove myself from the Open World game over mental health reasons.
Yesterday and the day before was mostly a break to save my motivation for this.
I don't like defending myself like this, but I have to say it because I really doubt anyone in here has been in all the games I've been in recently or currently.
Sorry to hear that. Never forget that mafia is just a game, and mental health is always the priority.![]()
Not sure of OT is proper for discussing this though since its going to be part of my defense.
Lol
This is my belief too. I agree with your assessment of the conversation around ChopChop. Like as soon as he claimed it I knew I was wrong. Gut punch moment. But Alison's assessment of where we stand isn't wrong. We will probably need to resolve his alignment question.MartinGG99 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 04, 2021 4:36 pmHonestly it irked me that people were using buzz words like "Occam's Razor" that he's scumstaypositivefriend wrote: ↑Thu Mar 04, 2021 4:34 pmwhy's it ridiculous? tell me more?MartinGG99 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 04, 2021 4:33 pm I'm back here refreshed, and last night I skimmed some of the thread before sleeping, so I am aware of the whole "scum slip" situation with Chop Chop that's simply ridiculous.
like wtf
Why is that the most SIMPLEST option to explain his apparent wolfiness or scumminess to people
when he's a new member of the community and not many here know him
Like, why can't he just be a non-optimal villager? Why is that not a suitably simple explanation?
If I am enclave who dayvigged c4?
Off to a good start.
What I'm going to argue is Hanlon's Razor. ChopChop is by far not the brightest of the bunch and considering his tone and and the sense I get from the statements, I feel this is more adequately explained by villager stupidity than Scum stupidity.Alison wrote: ↑Thu Mar 04, 2021 4:38 pmwould be a pretty big coincidence for a villa to not only pick a weird target to send a message to, but also leave off the one person who happens to be the mafia night kill off their message. if chop is town, they're the unluckiest townie alive.MartinGG99 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 04, 2021 4:36 pmHonestly it irked me that people were using buzz words like "Occam's Razor" that he's scumstaypositivefriend wrote: ↑Thu Mar 04, 2021 4:34 pmwhy's it ridiculous? tell me more?MartinGG99 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 04, 2021 4:33 pm I'm back here refreshed, and last night I skimmed some of the thread before sleeping, so I am aware of the whole "scum slip" situation with Chop Chop that's simply ridiculous.

slipping as scum is a simpler and more plausible explanation than these many coincidences.

I also feel like there's a bunch of energy to him but I also think he's just not sure of how to village along with how he wants to play, as he used to have a completely different villager playstyle several months ago but has recently got more upset over being ML'ed. Hence a recent playstyle change which I can see is very apparent in him right now.
He'd also get a kick out of my response being a big FU. Seriously though, I feel like Mac is weirding me out, has his playstyle changed since I was last playing?

How long do you think it’ll take to shift meta expectations

Also I am a mislynch bait, I will be afk now until few hours before EoD. Feel free to ask me or involve me into something.
Also take care of @Poison, unmotivated playstyles are part of her scum meta or she is genuinely busy. Feel free to talk to me Poison-chan!
So I am off for now, maybe up for an answer before I finally hit da pillow.
@Rej I'm here, let's talk, we played quite few games together right?
Fair.Alison wrote: ↑Thu Mar 04, 2021 4:55 pm I have a town read on Mac, mostly because he can't really win as scum if he plays like this. His teammates are going to get trampled on and he'll get outed by mech or by "well, we're out of good exes, let's just get rid of the afk". I have seen him blitz out first post reads as scum before (in SI) and he did that with a specific eye to pocketing a specific person via meta. He is pocketing nobody in this game with this behavior. I also just remembered that he said in Bread Mafia he was going to take mafia lowkey for a while because of some arguments he got into in D1.
