@RC If we have a vig why isn’t anyone dead? You claimed detective and based off this theorized a vig.

Any ideas why Ari or you aren’t dead?
sorry where did all the vig stuff come from ?

math, can you explain what exactly scum!rc was thinking yesterday when he nearly brought scum!ari to a lynch and then suddenly backed off,
and then why he'd today be trying to rile you up to lynch him over ari when we all know that rc is a better scum player who is acutely aware of bussing and is more likely to endgame in vaccuum ... ?
My theory is Ari is a PR and RC isn’t. So Ari is more valuable than RC. Assuming Ari+RC but it could be Ari alone and RC is just stubborn

I am trying to type up my case but I keep getting interrupted by roomies and such.

RC said there would be one because of his role claim. Cited post earlier for context

I never said I knew there was a vig.

I said that being a detective I suspected there was a vig.

It's a very very reasonable thing to suspect with the info I have.

Leave me alone about it.

No I said that there is above average chance of there being one.

That was true at the time. The fact that there isn't doesn't make me scum.

It’s not a guilty but I have it on good authority your claim doesn’t make sense because reasons.

And yes I am cagey until I figure out how to say what I should say and nothing more

You just read me as scum. Who’s shutting you down now? IMO you manufacture narratives after the fact that suit you ego. Like hell yes you’re a great player. But not perfect as you sell - as with the “subtle” inter player earlier, you overstate. Now I have no interest in a return to yesterday’s fun, so I won’t go back and forth on this. I’m just stating, as best I can, that there’s a more helpful way to be approaching this day.

RC, I don't know about the rest of the thread but for me, like, you have been great this phase and it's not postcount that gets me with you, it's your 1v1s. That was what got yesterday muddled. I love seeing you post your thoughts and I hope it's okay that you do so freely. It's just when it becomes a 1v1 that toxicity and passion take over and it's too much.

Love ya my guy :)

Like it’s not a guilty but the odds go down of your claim being true because things.

Pedit

Do you have a case for that? I think you’re trying to get a rise out of me. Considering I am just answering questions after calming down this seems odd.

I have noticed a small something I think helps.

Sorry like I need support to function

Not a bunch of people trying to shut me down before I started going because it's too risky to let scum RC have any control over town.

And regardless in every game this year I mislynched D1 I caught scum D2 but obviously can't have that slot having control of the game when I gave TW a free pass to D2, gotta 1v1 me for having scumreads you don't like

i'm assumign your'e talking about eod - why are you reading proposed alternative lynch as being +town and not as it being a potential cw that got thwarted

The only game RC tried to keep me alive as a scummate in was one where he fakeclaimed my role and if I died we both died. I almost gave up but atuck around and fought so he could win. I think it was Plotinus Mafia iirc when mafia games based on MS Members was an in thing.

If you compare these games it is extremely different here where I feel it would be similar if we were scummates and I were the PR. Just an interesting thought perspective from experience, tho selfmeta in a time when my meta is prolly whack to maybe grain of salt it.

Why? It’s something that at least has some bearing on the plausibility of the claim, and RC is a world builder who thinks through these things (as shown by the original vig hypothesis), so why not get the benefit of his thoughts on the world we are in?

By the way, I believe one of our more vacant slots is likely to be replaced - @rc, yet another reason not to speed through the day.
