Alison wrote: ↑Thu Mar 18, 2021 1:41 am You wanna know why I'm not bothering to respond to your points? Because I don't need to defend myself against you. You're scummy and everyone knows it. You're trying to bait me into a long drawn out anti town thunderdome, but what you don't understand is that I have no reason to bite. Right now you are butt naked pants on head neon sign flashing mafia, which means I don't have to listen to a word you say, just bury you. Even if you somehow convince the town that I am mafia and get me exed I know this player list well enough to know that you're most likely a goner afterwards, and 1 for 1 with enough evidence to expose your whole team afterwards is a perfectly fine trade in my book.
Would you bet your life on me being mafia? Because I am okay with that. Flip me today, if Alison is okay being flipped tomorrow after I turn up town.
this is not the way
If Alison has stopped defending herself, then she is mafia. If I need to flip to prove that to people, I am okay with it.
that is completely incorrect

Sure, that is true... maybe better would be to say "If Alison has stopped defending herself, then I have no way to re-evaluate my read on her, therefore I cannot progress past thinking she is mafia". She has huge glaring holes in what she has been saying, and I am happy to listen to what she has to say and re-evaluate, but mafia is a a team sport, and I can't re-evalulate her if she doesn't give me anything to re-evaluate.

BK didn't understand the post I originally made, which is understandable since BK wasn't in the first game. He then said he initially thought it was mudslinging. Maybe this was a throwaway thought by town, or maybe this was him as scum seeing a weird post and trying to be opportunistic, using it to subtly shade me. Looking back at the post, I really don't see any way it slings mud, and so I am still confused how Town!BK could have come to that thought. When pressed for how he came to that thought, he couldn't give anything, he dodged the question, and only a day later was he able to give any sort of explanation for why he mentioned mudslinging in the first place, and the explanation was not great imo. I'm not convinced he is scum, but this doesn't look good on his part.

Uhh... Alison doesn't know me. She is making stuff up about me here. I actually get accused of tunneling a lot, and Nook can confirm that. In Spank!, the one game I did play with Alison, people actually were scumreading me at times because I wasn't tunneling anyone by EoD1.

Seanzie, the best thing you can do rn is just look for wolves, and not bomb yourself into Alison

You are giving wolf!Alison a free pass to lynch you and have an excuse for it tomorrow

You put yourself in a better position by looking towny and making wolves look bad when they don't reval

Also as someone who knows Alison reasonably well I disagree with your reasons to scum read her

Could you please try to read them? I am making very solid points against Alison, and she has thus far not addressed any of my points.

I can repost them as broken up quotes if it is going to help. I'd rather not go through that, but it is kind of important for people to read what I am saying.

You do realize that your post was weird out of context, right? Context BK doesn't have

I actually haven't read the back and forth much because I assumed it was just BK not having that context but I'll look

What excuse does she have?

Also, this is how I hunt for wolves. I am much better at telling alignments of people who suspect me and am really bad at telling when people are buddying me, so I walk out into the woods with a bunch of steaks strapped to my chest (make myself look vaguely scummy), and see who comes to try to eat me (town eventually sees through this, wolves don't though, because wolves can't tell what looks real scummy vs fake scummy, since they know everything they see from town is fake scummy).

Yes, I do. And I specifically didn't initially answer BK about the context to see what he would say about why he saw it as mudslinging. If he would have said something like "I just didn't understand it, and so kind of assumed it would have some scum motive behind it", then that would have satisfied me then and there probably, but he didn't do that. He mentioned mudslinging, but then looked uncomfortable when pressed about that.

They apparently know LC from some indeterminate amount of time ago. I don't think they are new.

The only good thing in Falcons ISO is the generally brash/inquisitive nature he carries with him as town still being present. But I dislike how he has given so few reads, and his read on Seanzie feels tmi-esque, as I'm not sure why he never really commented on liking/disliking anything about the generally most scum read player in the game, yet attacked some of Seanzies pushers (LC)

Posted: **Thu Mar 18, 2021 2:22 am**

@Seanzie what's your Falcon read

@Long Con can you explain your Seanzie read

I thought he looked very abrasive at the start. I thought he asked a few good questions, but also seemed awkward about it, and remember initially thinking about if he was scum. I don't remember anything from him after I became focused on BK though. I'd have to ISO him or reread to say anything else.

Also, its my birthday!

Posted: **Thu Mar 18, 2021 2:37 am**

seanzie is right that many of alison's reads are reliant on her read on him, which is an unusual amount of confidence for of a day 1 read. if alison is mafia and seanzie town, alison benefits from this by putting in work that ends up not mattering nor pushing the game forward, needing to be redone.

seanzie's point's about alison possibly lucking into a correct scumread on the people she's connected him to due to her read on him, seems inconsistent with the idea that seanzie also suspects alison
