Now gimme 500 words telling me why that's a bad reason.

G-Man wrote: ↑Wed Feb 10, 2021 1:50 pm Really, though, has anyone provided any concrete evidence against me? Like anything linking me to Michelle or Bo? Or any actions that seems predicated upon baddieness? Where’s the beef?

I own that I’m coasting on posting. That’s just me. But I’m still observing and I’ve been able to keep abreast of the current goings-on. I’m being guarded with my opinions still because I’m slow to catch onto things in most games, let alone one this size. You can call it excuses, but an excuse can still be the truth.

Right now I see a bunch of hopping around and throwing stuff at the wall to see what sticks. I wasn’t concerned about it Day 1 because that’s Day 1 standard. It’s Day 3 and we’ve nabbed two baddies. This kind of free-wheeling, low-evidence, party-wagon stuff is more likely to come from a baddie looking to hedge against recent losses by serving up a half-baked case on an easy-ish target. I just have to figure out if the baddie(s) is/are the ones starting it or the ones hopping in when it hits second gear.

The lady doth protest too much, methinks

I'll be afk today. If anyone needs anything specific from me, ping me.

I'll be around tomorrow to catch up, sort through things, and vote.

yo, if G-man's poll is correct, Grogu lowkey saved kyle. If kyle isn't bad, Grogu confirmed town, no?

Care to come at me, then? Why is my name on that list?

I'm much better at telling people's alignments when they suspect me, than when they don't.

Oh? How does that work without it descending into NOU?

Not sure why you would assume that? I don't just OMGUS people who suspect me, I try to determine their alignment based on their push.

reywaS wrote: ↑Wed Feb 10, 2021 7:56 am I mean do you use the fact that you know your alignment and assume people that sus you also know it?

I’m legit confused on the logic behind this statement.

No. Often times people come at me, and it is clear they legit suspect me, in which case I can easily tell they are town. Other times people come at me, and it is clear they are faking their suspicion, and I catch scum. It also happens sometimes that I can't tell, or that I get it wrong, but it wouldn't be mafia without the chance of being wrong.

Scummy seanzie is scumzie methinks.

[VOTE: gman] aubergineis scummier tho

Jack of hearts...I’m null on all far tbh.

So far. Maybe he is just super dope at reading Michelle indunno

@nutella

800 posts on day 3? Insanity!! Lol hardcore G shit

[VOTE: VOTE GMAN] aubergine

Ok lunchtime nutritional spam is done. Later gators

nutella wrote: ↑Wed Feb 10, 2021 1:25 pm Guillo, you've seemed to completely avoid talking about gman despite him appearing to be the most consensus suspect atm. What's the deal?

Avoiding is a strong word, one that is not in my dictionary.

I'm gonna level with you. I scum read you.

Ive been trying to get rid of my tunnel on you but my gut is telling it's been you all along and naturally the people you push hard i tend to town read, which makes me a bad town because hello! Distancing exists. So, i will never sheep you in this game. If my mjolnir was a straight up vig shot i would have hip shot you at the start of this phase but unfortunately it's not, it does not work like that, also Made advises against it and i trust him, he and I have had similar reads in this game. I also believe that Mac has a lot of equity to be your partner and you two forming a wagon on Kyle's in the last hour, looked like a straight attempt to save Michelle and you thought you could get away with it, and well it's working.

So again, explain to me, why Jack is a wolf.

I've explained my jack case enough, I'm on gman more than him now. Stop evading

Woo! Scumzie!

I'm kind of in awe at how incapable guillo is at responding to a single point

ight, lets go for it
@Guillotine if hammer doesn't end day, we should Hammer g-man

Guillo, if you hammer anyone other than gman and we flip gman and he's scum, I'm blasting you into oblivion because you'd either be obviously gmans teammate or just such a negatiy utility townie as to be a liability.

Guillotine has thor's hammer. he won it in the art contest. I don't think a wolf can weild the hammer.

I think he is town?

can a wolf wield the hammer?

why do you think Guillotine is a wolf?

Or ya know make a single point at all.

if it was based on the art contest which he was entered in from the night poll why would his alignment have any relevance

he can be a wolf

could someone explain to me like I'm working with 1 brain cell here why senZ is sus? I kinda get the jack one and Gman one.

I don’t think that is strictly how Thor’s hammer works. One doesn’t have to be “good” but worthy according to odins enchantment. Worthy does not necessarily mean good according to the marvel lore... I think I’m right on thsi

Guill’s ill advised tunnel on Nutella looks townie to me.

He's done nothing so he is in the PoE

But yeah I don’t think winning an art contest is AI.

Here

Sorry I am a huge Thor fanboy lol obv

Dr Doom is not a bad guy. He’s a loving uncle!

I love victor von doom. He’s an incredibly complex villain that has been more antihero than villain at certain times. But mostly he a villain.

I can’t wait to see the character done right on screen

does Canon mean nothing in the world of town vs mafia? like captain America and a tiny handful of others were the only ones to weird thorns hammer.

but yeah my 1 brain cell says I'm dumb. wolves can win it too.

I'll have to look into Guillotine's iso.

uh, so like nutella she be thinking that gman is sus but then is blasting Guillotine about it. says if gman flips wolf Guillotine going down. and she seems sus of jum in general so she probably will sus him if gman flips town too. what are your thoughts on this?

pretty much idk where nutella's intention is. what her motivations are. she is definitely influential in the thread. is she carrying us to victory or our doom?

Guillotine pretty much is leaving the decision of the hammer up to u. how you feel about that? seems like a cop out.


gman seems stiff in his posts. is he really wolfing or is this where mafia is pushing for a misyeet or misnamed or missvig shot?


what about grogu? I don't like his iso and I don't like his actions. he seems fake.

I believe you @reywaS, but there were some better options.

I said I was gonna afk, but I remembered my abilities and wanted to look into that.

Anyway, back to afk

Maybe i should just decide whom to hammer and own up to whatever outcome it may yield.

whoa there buddy. calm down. but it's weird that you specifically want Made to decide who you hammer. made is logical but still. also if it ends day early then wait.

Also, made now wants you to kill gman after you haven't commented on G-man. Dasss a bad loook, especially if G-man is bad

so like I finally went to the desk top version on my phone and. dang. I have been viewing some pops all different.

ex. legit thought Guillotine's was a robot face or something with his name across it.

pfps* not pops

You over explain.

Master Radishes wrote: ↑Wed Feb 10, 2021 2:01 pm Now gimme 500 words telling me why that's a bad reason.

Retractions, corrections, and doubling back are not things that I care to engage in. You see, I like to be clear about expressing what I think at any given time, so I am cautious when going through the process if construction a sentence. When writing anything of considerable substance, my proofreading and revision process is quite formidable. Whether it be an original and organic statement, a declaration, an interrogative piece, a response, or even a quick and snappy retort, I want it to convey as close to my exact intention as possible.

This is a difficult thing to accomplish in a situation such as this, given that we are not in each other’s presence to hear the precise intonation of each other’s words and the personality behind them. What we are left with is a suboptimal exchange wherein we impart our own imagined intonations, accents, and diction upon the words of each person playing this game. It is bad enough that we all possess our own individual biases when it comes to phraseology, definitions, and cultural vernacular, but the inability to hear how such words are meant to be conveyed impedes clarity of communication.

If a statement or post of mine over-explains something, it is suggested that I said more than I needed to in that particular moment. But, as I explained above, my process of posting is deliberate, and not just because I hold prescriptivist views on grammar, syntax, and word choice. How then is it possible for me to over-explain something when my proofreading and revising process results in a post that contains every word that I hold to be necessary for proper thought expression so as to not be misunderstood? I think the problem may reside in a difference in definitions of the word ‘over-explain,’ which sets us on the slippery slope of communicative relativism.

Your accusation against me took me by surprise, considering I have a post count that is below both the median and the average for players in this game. How can someone be guilty of posting so little and yet posting ‘too much’ at the same time? I looked back through my ISO, and I disagree with your assessment of my posts. Only one of my posts is lengthy enough due to my own words to occupy more space than what my iPhone screen can display. That was the post in which I provided the group with the correct Day 2 votes, so it is farcical to say that post too much.

Do you maintain that even in my posts of but two or three short paragraphs that I am over-explaining? As stated before, my posts contain every word I intend them to. In fact, since the burden of proof is on the accuser, I challenge you to provide me in-game examples of me over-explaining. Please begin by sharing your definition of the word ‘over-explain’ and all of its derivatives. Once established, we can review the posts that you believe prove me guilty.
