I regret not inning as paragon but I had the mental image that if I did we'd get a super stupid town like the one in branching paths and get a page 2 or 3 hammer on town and leave us no real way to solve

I am aware of this

Congratulations on being the sole slot who hasn't tried to lynch someone without buy in from me

I said alright, might have missed it because I skimmed.

He's pulling an inconsistency from nowhere, not heeding my rebuttal.

Would be damn hypocritical for me to in any case, considering I'm just getting into the game.

Yay! I give you a million Stanley nickels in turn.

I am not

I absolutely fucking loathe urap trying to railroad me when I was drunk, and I want the chance to discuss it with him and sort him and what not and we don't get that by rushing the game

gtfo with the whole railroad shit. I asked to lynch, you were like no not til im sober. i unvote. you say, hey I'm functional now, so I bring it up, and then you're somehow drunk again and i drop it

i don't understand the need for the over the top language

I think that URAP is scum who was trying to abuse my being intoxicated to score an easy mislynch on MS and then when that failed Saudade tried to get MS to help score a mislynch on Shoshin.

this is not a thing you believe. this is you posturing as whatever the fuck alignment you are

In post 927, RadiantCowbells wrote:Basically

I don't want to have to sort Saudade / Shoshin at this point

I'm fairly happy saying that the negative feelings URAP gave me were probably because he's scum now that I've looked at how he tried to finesse me today. But Saudade is seeking to make the game about him/Shoshin in a situation where the other scum is obviously easier to resolve.

Again, this doesn't work if you don't townread me.
like the only reason this bullshit doesn't reverse my read on you is because you also hard scum read me in the vengecop that just ended. You were wrong there. You're probably wrong!town here

you haven't dismantled it. yes, it happened as you described above, but that doesn't stop it from being scummy.

Enter's line of thinking re: scumread on **me** is obviously bad.
His line of thinking re: RC would be bad if this was the basis for it, and would push him to start re-evaluating there.
Even with different win-cons, he's incentivized to find scum as that should give him an auto win, and it's therefore good to communicate and sort out reads.

Calling something fake is the cheapest attack you can make, plus that you're attacking without bothering to engage with me points to it being in bad faith.

I'm also getting more confident in town!RC + scum!URAP from this.
RC, I know you want to get townread anyway; but look at the progression of URAP's read on you, ultimately to this: that he *would* scumread you but finds a reason not to.
Talk about unnatural.

How many times are you going to misrep this?

I'm pushing that claiming to have caught up without actually catching up is scummy
