Jamie is getting muted. not gonna listen to insults and procedural diatribes.

I never claimed the game is too much to keep up with. im top posting for christs sakes
Your problem apparently is that you are unable to keep track of your own posts, and when someone (me) asks you about a rationale you previously posted about someone who is apparently your top scumread, instead of answering the question, you weirdly deny ever having held that opinion.

Let's just reset and take a deep breath or two. There's no need for anyone to mute anyone else.
I am denying the callous, toxic and abbreviated efforts to
summarize my scumread on lfischl as “an act”. which is simply not the shallow level the scumread actually has.
this is about the fact that this is what he would do as mafia in this setup, to appear like he isnt going to lurk later
I made no such effort.

I asked you a simple question about your original basis for scumreading Lfischl, which you could have answered. I asked that question because I wanted to understand your thinking. Instead of answering my perfectly reasonable, polite question, you denied making the original argument and then got all mad at me.

Let's calm down.
Potato, potato; potato.

deflecting by claiming im deflecting is just you changing the subject more to continue to focus the topic on something other than lfischl.

this is now the 7th occasion on this page youve had an opportunity to explain why lfischl is town and youve failed to produce a single coherent statement in support of that

instead youve attacked me ad hominem and implied I cant remember my own reasoning - you never asked if I had any nuanced or updated reasoning

you attempted to bury the topic and turn it against me implying I should be disregarded because my wifes pregnancy is occupying too much of my focus

##VOTE Jamiet

This is a serious vote.

Feels like they are trying extra hard to get into fights. Presumably to look town and clog up the thread with nonsense.
Do you think I am scum with BunnyGo, and that I am therefore bussing him?
I'm not sure who you are paired with. I'm going to go back and look at your scumgame, but I'm reasonably convinced you are scum here.

Hey brain, I don't want to know why lfischl is town. I want clarification on why you think lfischl is scum. Can you reply to my post? We all know Jamie isn't worth talking to. :razz:

I do not townread Lfischl and did not claim that I did. Therefore there is no such explanation for me to post. I am not trying to defend Lfischl. I was asking you a fairly basic question about why you scumread him, so that we could discuss your case, to help me decide whether I ought to vote him with you. That's not the same as saying I think he's locktown or something. I asked a really quite simple question. This is how I play the game. I think that is normal.

You are not thinking clearly. I'm going to suggest you take a time-out as you seem to be getting upset. I don't want to upset you and I'm sorry if I have done, it was not my intention, Brain.

I'm going to take a few hours away from the game too, in the hope that helps calm things down.

lfischl posts at first study are detailed and surprising coming from him. I know what he does as both alignments and when he is mafia he tries just a bit harder and then becomes a wallflower as the game goes on. he has a path to win as mafia and its usually just laying low - but the only way he can do that is if he gets into your head early that hes just town so you forget him and move on

I think Jamiet was just referring to the pregnancy in the same way I was earlier in the game. If your wife had just given birth (which I thought to be the case), then it's reasonable to assume you would be distracted and not able to contribute substantially.

Of course, my characterization was "brainbomb's busy", whereas Jamie's is "brainbomb is scattered and confused", but I think in the end the sentiment comes from the same place.

Either way, Jamiet is clearly trying to defuse the situation right now, even if asking you to calm down is likely to provoke the opposite reaction.

Maybe the way to ask me what my scumread on lfischl is all about wouldve been bot to insult it and water it down, offer your own reasons as to why you think hes scummy or not, or just show quotes of his you dont think are an act.

you couldve done all of that instead of whatever this has been which makes me think you just wanted to belittle me to diminish my standing with town

Okay, thank you for the clarification. If we put aside the meta argument, and given there is so little in lfischl's iso so far in this game (even if it is relatively detailed from a meta perspective), I am curious about all the activity that is directed towards lfischl, given how little activity they themselves have. What do you make of Bob and Will's attitudes and actions towards lfischl?

Agreed. Bob townread lfischl and never explained his move to vote on lfischl. He also shaded your scumread of lfischl. He makes strong signs he does not believe lfischl is scum, and then votes for them. I find this suspicious.

my scumreads at this present time are
lfischl
frogster
chaqa

I think bob is pretty clearly town, and sweet is also very likely town. I have some uncomfortable feelings about townreading worcej-kak-neph but nothing they said really “bothers” me necessarily.

I wasnt that impressed by Jamie posts and that could definetely also be a scumread.


my top town is probably bob just because hes a completely ridiculous person who lacks social tact and yet is incredibly charismatic in his own way
do you have any somethingburgers to back up those scumreads? (mostly fisch and chaqa)

For the record, Bunnygo is present, and active, and clearly keeping up with the game, but has not posted.
He’s done this before and it drove you nuts.
