I think so. I'm not sure which way you are comparing the two games; Severance was much more to 'download', as an experimental-type game... whereas this one is mostly straightforward except for the shifting Prime.

Let's say I'm at 100%, and move on to the follow-up question(s).

why

come wait in the brush next to me and watch to see why

can’t, long con the glorious has decided that we’re in a mountainous today

We were already pretty much mountainous, I don't see how my revelation changed anything. How does that affect you "waiting in the brush", anyway? What does that even mean? Lurking? You can go ahead and lurk just fine no matter what I do.

The game is still as ability-free as it has always been, and it didn't become otherwise when I claimed. Why do you believe that my claim has an effect on you "waiting in the brush"? I don't know what that phrase means, but it is suggested that it is about lurking, which is something you are free to do despite my actions.

i was being opaque, “can't” said that he couldn’t hide in the bushes because it’s a mountainous and no tracks would work tonight

if you let me fake claim then odds are we’d have 2 clears going into d2 assuming a mischop

so waiting in the bushes was a mechanical statement

So hiding in the bushes is a mechanical thing, related to tracking?

I don't understand. You're giving me the conclusion of your thoughts without showing the process.

so waiting in the bushes was a mechanical statement

Still don't know what it means though.

Let's be done with it. We have too much trouble commucincating.

*communicating

why are you even voting me

do you think i'm irrational or something, i'm struggling to see how you're interpreting me as anything besides extremely one dimensional and irrational

i believe i'm hyper-rational, have you seen anything to assume otherwise in this game or rondo's?

You guys.

To be fair, @robyn my first reaction when i saw LCs vote on you was to follow him. Even though it's been ages since we played in our home forum, role claiming, much less fake role claiming for a townie purpose, isn't my first thought when I see something like that, it's an eyeroll, tbh. Abigails reaction to it was not something I would ever even think of, that you were providing cover. I didn't think of it till she said it.

I am not he, but I would imagine LCs thought was similar to what mine would be in that situation.

No one here is irrational, and I'm fairly sure no one has said anyone is; we just have different perspectives. Arguing over water under the bridge is counterproductive. That water is in different timeline.

Ha ha, you do that too. Awesome.

To put a finer point on it, there need be no frustration on robyn's part if the goal was to clear someone else. That's been accomplished.

The funny business is if Long Con and robyn are teammates.

I don't think that's the case though. Funny but no.

Okay, S~V~S is a bad timeline.

S~V~S is doing bad S~V~S things. It's all neutral, not trying to figure anybody out, golly what time does the poll end.

That vote was BS, and I don't see town Epi making it.

I'll be out of thread until after work, only about an hour before EOD, so I'll be back but barely. If I get yeeted, take Epi next.

I really honestly can't believe I'm taking sus for trying to bridge a disagreement between town. Just becasue our hobby is killing people, doesn't mean we have to be so cynical.
