Let's yeet him because im intolerant!
Either that! Or you were looking to build a wagon under the pretense of a policy lynch on an obvious townie player.

no question is silly and he went to the effort to summarize the rules first and asked questions about things he still had ???? about.
false narrative is you calling questions "chaotic"
you may have experience with mtg but as someone with 0 previous experience the whole setup is chaotic to me.
You can disagree with my reads of his responses, that's fine. But you're framing them to be something they're not, and that's not cool yo

I haven't read the posts carefully, but I think I would have words to say in chat if my teammate spiraled like that.

Unfortunately many of them don't go anywhere. For example:

sometimes you have to cut your losses and fight god
basically nothing has changed. the fact that he's done absolutely nothing with his read reinforces that it's something he doesn't truly believe in. he hasn't followed up on it at all nor has he tried to convince any other people of it's validity, nor has he asked any follow up questions or even voted for me as he would if it was meant as a townie prod.
Agrees with a town list thats has a player of whose posting he doesn't remember?
And what does that tell you about his alignment?falcon45ca wrote: ↑Mon Mar 08, 2021 10:41 pmAgrees with a town list thats has a player of whose posting he doesn't remember?

i don't think anything you could say or do could prove that you authentically believe that asking questions and joking about the answers is 'creating chaos' because it's a ludicrous statement to begin with, and it's a statement that you haven't even really explained yet.falcon45ca wrote: ↑Mon Mar 08, 2021 10:44 pmYou're a dum dum head if you don't think me explaining my read on you to several different players isn't proof of my belief in its validity.Kylemii wrote: ↑Mon Mar 08, 2021 10:32 pmbasically nothing has changed. the fact that he's done absolutely nothing with his read reinforces that it's something he doesn't truly believe in. he hasn't followed up on it at all nor has he tried to convince any other people of it's validity, nor has he asked any follow up questions or even voted for me as he would if it was meant as a townie prod.
This post is really really not good because reasons
these two are also not great:tedxtr wrote: ↑Sun Mar 07, 2021 3:15 am so punish the fool seems like a pretty punishing ability for our team.
the best we can probably do is to make scum play whack-a-mole. we all need mana for something...
fix suggestion : everyone should ask for the mana they need (and that's it - just ask for the mana, don't say what it's for or that it needs priority, etc etc), irregardless of how good or bad their ability is.
loop holes : the mafia will target strong people this way, so we're a bit forced to spread the cards to someone they don't need dead. (PoEish targets that can reasonably be town)
my instinct is to say that 3 mana is a bit tough to gather? so let's not try to get caught up in an ability that takes quite a bit to use anyway.
thoughts / concerns about this?

Why would a townie ever say "3 mana is a bit tough to gather" here?
assuming mafia have decent roles to use, we’d be forcing them to swap over to using that ability and take a gamble anyway
