This back and forth between Flum and Balki plus the patient zero counterclaims is kind of cringe.

This would make sense if for the first time in recent memory that the D1 kill from a mafia team was because 'what the hell?'xorxes wrote: ↑Thu Mar 19, 2020 9:04 pmIt really is a weird choice, I don't remember any game when brain was NKd before becoming a clear.

Xorxes, why do you think brainbomb was nightkilled?
Recent reads of the mafia QT post-game show there is a discussed reason behind the kill.

Re: M54: Not a Carrot Conspiracy
A lot of their interactions are kind of cringe. I don't think they are both mafia.xorxes wrote: ↑Thu Mar 19, 2020 9:19 pmThis back and forth between Flum and Balki plus the patient zero counterclaims is kind of cringe.
Re: M54: Not a Carrot Conspiracy
Yes, but you did not read closely Fox's description. You have not been away from games for a while.
Possible. It's not me though.I suspect that at least 2 scum team members are in: xorxes, Vecna, Fluminator, Balki.
Why is Fox scum?I also think Fox is scum, worcej is town.
Yes.Jamiet seems town so far. Damo too.
He had that townslip thing, but other than that he has been towny enough.Bunny is impossible for me to read.
bo more than emc, but yes.EMC and Bo are the worst.
Were any of them college roomates with you?Anyone else hasn't left an impact on me yet.

Surely he made an impact on you?

Hot-take: You seem to be someone who assumes things when reading what someone says.kgray wrote: ↑Thu Mar 19, 2020 9:09 pmDo you think there are any particular conversations that have been drowned out by the noise? If Balki is intentionally creating drama, what is he covering up? And why do you think his interrogation tactic is more likely used by scum than by town trying to figure out alignments? Do you really think it's all just "noise" and we can't learn anything from those interactions?
I don't think there needs to be anything specific to cover up. A distraction of any sort would be acceptable if that is the goal.
I never said I thought his interrogation tactic is more likely used by scum than town. Yes Balki is doing this, but upon re-read he seems to implement it when he knows he has gotten under someone's skin. With that in mind, how exactly is he helping town?
And I also didn't imply I didn't learn anything from his interactions. I think I have a decent read on Bunny and Jamie because of it.
Re: M54: Not a Carrot Conspiracy
If I thought we shouldn't discuss it I wouldn't be discussing it. What I'm saying is I don't think it will tell us a lot, at least not directly.BunnyGo wrote: ↑Thu Mar 19, 2020 9:09 pmThis is some bullshit.

I also just realized how little xorxes has done so far.

What is your theory then, why was he killed?Fluminator wrote: ↑Thu Mar 19, 2020 9:15 pmIt is wifomy, but Night Kill Analysis is super underrated in like all forums lol.BunnyGo wrote: ↑Thu Mar 19, 2020 9:09 pmThis is some bullshit.

I didn't notice any crumbs either. I think him being a PR might just be unfortunate coincidence.
Re: M54: Not a Carrot Conspiracy
The point is that for every reason we can speculate, it is also possible that they wanted us to think that was the reason.worcej wrote: ↑Thu Mar 19, 2020 9:20 pmThis would make sense if for the first time in recent memory that the D1 kill from a mafia team was because 'what the hell?'xorxes wrote: ↑Thu Mar 19, 2020 9:04 pmIt really is a weird choice, I don't remember any game when brain was NKd before becoming a clear.

Tinfoil hat I believe he may have been having good reads and, besides with Jamie, was not being as much of a distraction.xorxes wrote: ↑Thu Mar 19, 2020 9:36 pmThe point is that for every reason we can speculate, it is also possible that they wanted us to think that was the reason.worcej wrote: ↑Thu Mar 19, 2020 9:20 pmThis would make sense if for the first time in recent memory that the D1 kill from a mafia team was because 'what the hell?'xorxes wrote: ↑Thu Mar 19, 2020 9:04 pm

Indirectly, yes. Is that important to you?kgray wrote: ↑Thu Mar 19, 2020 9:39 pmYeah for sure I assume things, but I'm trying not to. Hence all the questions into what you're thinking. I'm trying to understand where you're coming from.

Re: M54: Not a Carrot Conspiracy
If the basis of your scumread on Balki is that he's creating noise as a distraction to hurt town, then yes. It is important to me that you claim his tactics are anti-town while also admitting they have a pro-town outcome.worcej wrote: ↑Thu Mar 19, 2020 9:45 pmIndirectly, yes.

Re: M54: Not a Carrot Conspiracy
Just curious. What do you mean by "cringe"? I thought it was kind of funny, but I generally crack myself up.xorxes wrote: ↑Thu Mar 19, 2020 9:19 pmThis back and forth between Flum and Balki plus the patient zero counterclaims is kind of cringe.
Re: M54: Not a Carrot Conspiracy
How long will the minute be? It would be nice to have your perspective on things.
Re: M54: Not a Carrot Conspiracy
I think any scum's actions can have a pro-town outcome when you analyze them once you know their alignment, so I don't see why this important to bring up.kgray wrote: ↑Thu Mar 19, 2020 9:50 pmIf the basis of your scumread on Balki is that he's creating noise as a distraction to hurt town, then yes.
