Not making one, but reading through yours/Cabds and actually being able to engage with it instead of being a worthless real-time spitballer

Okay bear.
this is a pretty decent call out
tbh thinking about it my idea about conftown Guillo isn't great, as it could have just been setting up a fakeclaim, but that seems a bit advanced? Not saying Guillo is too noobish to do it, but it feels a bit ehhhh if that's the case.

Yeah I know Guillo ain't a noob, in fact didn't he say he wasn't a stranger to this site? In fact if I'm right about that I'd REALLY like someone to refer me to that post because I see a SERIOUS issue with it.

Do you have a decent knowledge of the main characters of the game the flavor is based on, yes or no? This is a question to EVERYONE currently pushing Noraa.

I think I'm at least semi-obligated to explain my read on Guillotina since they replaced out and there's a wagon on them or something.

Spoiler:
In post 1398, Guillotina wrote:I'm definitely not voting Cakez today. The guy is getting pushed based on an evidence claim that Cabd cannot present due to site's rules.
In other words, if they cannot be presented they don't exist! Imagine if we could convict people based on non corroborated proof in real life! A lot more people would be in jail!

We gotta take his word for it? Like hell I will, I don't know this guy!

We either find real evidence to yeet Cakez or vote someone else.

Good night!
I think this only looks bad in hindsight because Cakez was scum.

This post pings scum.
Your post pings scum.

Not only because you didn't elaborate why in the same post, so the intention was not bring awareness but to shade, but it also raises some questions.

Do you think we could all not be easily wrong? If so, why?

What information do you have to assume all people could be right? And if you think everyone could be right why did you vetoed Sircakez yeet?

For the record: im not saying everyone could be right or wrong, im saying that Bell got a point and throwing shade at Bell for it is scummy.

VOTE: Noraa
This post pinged me a little, but I like how he defended Bell from Noraa. This wasn't a good push from Noraa, and Noraa's explanation regarding the semantics is something I'd expect more from scum than town.

There is also a direct and incisive tone that reads town to me, which is why I said it generally reads town to me when I actually read the words.

That hell is this? A death sentence? If cakes flips green it does not mean Cabd is immediately scum. Town can be wrong. We put him under scrutiny and if he does not measure up we yeet him.

Cakez man I am sorry RNG fucked you over bud but like, we can hug after your team shoots me night one in the dead thread and make up and play footsies.
If you are this sure to bet your own life on it by compromising to self-vote. I'll bite.
If he flips green with an important ability, i'll be mad. Crown Prince level mad.

VOTE: SirCakez
These posts look weird when juxtaposed because he pretty much did exactly what he accused LLD of doing, but I don't really see hypocrisy as a scumtell since I see townies guilty of it all the time.

I do think at last one of LLD are scum here, but I'm leaning slightly less on Guillotina.

Now, the one problem that had me suspicious is the fact all of his votes are against Cakez, Nora, and LLD. And they are very committed and incisive, and for things I myself wouldn't think would warrant a fade on their own. So if there is a Cakez/Nora/LLD team, I'd be a little bit more wary of this slot.
In post 2923, Guillotina wrote:WTF! If you guys think that i am scum because i made the mistake of defending what seemed like an LHF being bullied by a power player then you got it all wrong!!! Im town. I was not a lurker on Day 1, it implies i've been in the game but not engaging which is not true. I signed up to a game that is supposed to last 10 days per day phase which adjusted to my work schedule and free time but it ended in a day!! If i knew i was signing up for a blitz game i wouldn't have sign up at all.

Now it's Saturday night and I already got plans, so if this game does not end in 12 hours, we can talk, but I'm town!! My only sin was feeling empathy for someone I thought was being bullied!!
I don't consider this guy to be a lurker by any means. His activity is healthy when you realize the posting habits of the players in this game aren't (120 pages generated in two days or so of play).

Now, my scumread is partially dependant on a Newbie tell, but it's been established they aren't one. So I don't put much stock in it. I have enough qualms with this slot that I wouldn't stop his lynch, but I don't really feel like voting him.

Have you shared a mod PT with bork before?

He has a VERY specific method of determining alignments and fakeclaims.


Here's how this game went down with near certainty:

Step 1: generate 22 town aligned flavor names
Step 2: Put those in alphabetical order
Step 3: Put that list into the list randomize function on random.org. The top 5 are now mafia fakeclaims.
Step 4: Design the roles and rest of the game
Step 5: Get 22 players to sign up.
Step 6: Put the player lsit in alphabetical order
Step 7: Put that list into the list randomize function on Random.org, the top five names are mafia.
