Then we rolled scum together, and I bussed him from the first page to his D1 death and went on to win the game.KoalaAttack wrote: ↑Mon Apr 03, 2023 10:17 pmWhy, the time-honored tradition of voting for self and getting chewed out for bad "Townie Play" that I've done in all of my 3 prior games! Before you ask, I was Townie in 2 of them and Mafia in 1, real traditions must be upheld regardless of alignment.
Also the promise to be GandalfKoala that I made to ghug and the playerbase in general in last game / Discord that's-now-disappeared.
Yes please! Thank you Jamiet, save me from getting sucked into this thread too much again. Must... be... more... lurker!
The lesson is, if Koala is scum, so is Jamie.

Re: MAFIA 79: The Price is Right! [GAME THREAD]
Because Foxcastle is attempting to use an example of his own previous behaviour when scum with EMC, to predict how I would behave as part of a theoretical scum pairing with Koala (who I have never been scum with).
The logical progression does not hold up.
I am not Foxcastle and I do not behave like Foxcastle does. We're quite different people.

Do you reject his premise that your vote appears as a bus?Jamiet99uk wrote: ↑Mon Apr 03, 2023 10:45 pmBecause Foxcastle is attempting to use an example of his own previous behaviour when scum with EMC, to predict how I would behave as part of a theoretical scum pairing with Koala (who I have never been scum with).

Yes.

Re: MAFIA 79: The Price is Right! [GAME THREAD]
Of course not. The question is merely whether this action in absence of further evidence resembled known prior bus votes.Jamiet99uk wrote: ↑Mon Apr 03, 2023 10:53 pmYes.

Why did we let people keep talking in the signups after PMs went out?

Re: MAFIA 79: The Price is Right! [GAME THREAD]
Foxcastle's argument was that it resembled known prior bus votes cast by Foxcastle.snowy801 wrote: ↑Mon Apr 03, 2023 10:55 pmOf course not.

Do you find that argument convincing for some reason?

It is interesting that Foxcastle would make such an unconvincing argument, I agree with you.snowy801 wrote: ↑Mon Apr 03, 2023 11:05 pmNot convincing, merely interesting.Jamiet99uk wrote: ↑Mon Apr 03, 2023 11:00 pmFoxcastle's argument was that it resembled known prior bus votes cast by Foxcastle.

What do you think his motivation was?
