I have to defend alisae because I think that the scum wincon was entirely on his shoulders since menal was almost guaranteed to be flipped with all of me, MT, Hopkirk, etc. all suspecting him. Playing it out would just be kabuke theater at that point if alisae had given up.

Conversely I feel like alisae played the best scum game out of everyone.

Oh so it doesn’t matter if the game was actually unwinnable?
No, it actually doesn't, at least for any non-literal definition of "unwinnable".

I was never intending to endgame, I was expecting you to endgame because you were the one who was widely townread

After you conceded I was gonna try to pretend I didn’t mind being the next elim as a wifomy non-survivalistic play and to argue that you have too much integrity to true-scumclaim with a buddy and that therefore you doing so should be considered clearing for me, and then to try and get ABR, uncrowned and hop executed probably

The points being made here were never towards alisae frankly

It's all environment-based, (Mafia) games shouldn't invite a culture where your best option is to simply not play

Menal never survives today. It's only you who can carry it to a win there. I can see your point, but I think if it's a generally held position then it's not good for the site tbh. Like if you enjoy town then how would it affect your experience if scumteams frequently conceded when they thought they were very likely to lose on d3 and games frequently ended before lategame?

If there is some allotted pressure or negativity bias causing scum teams to just collapse and not even try? There has been a dynamic shift in the way townplay is rewarded, and now it seems if people aren't town they aren't apart of the inner circle or something

Why?

You were a mason????? Woah. First I learn of this lol. But well played, you were very town this game.

In poker you shouldn’t be able to fold
In League you shouldn’t be able to concede.

I don’t see how that makes sense Idunno tho.

No, I don't think so, I actually think that this is pretty squarely on alisae here. We could have some discussion on site meta and pressures on scumteams and such but I think that this situation is pretty divorced from that.
In post 2409, Alisae wrote: Then Idunno what to tell you tbh.
You need to check your ego and recognize that throwing a tantrum and then throwing the game because your partner is making plays that you don't agree with and you're in a setup that you don't like is wrong. That your own subjective analysis of how winnable the game is doesn't supersede your partner's wishes, no matter how bitter you feel towards him.

we'd have still voted mena then i'd have gone through with the loverise and cleared someone sus right? did you think my role was scum-loveriser? if so i feel like i could have convinced you that unconnected-scum-Hopkirk doesn't claim that out of nowhere d3 when it doesn't really help him whereas townhop has been crumbing it since d1 and it makes perfect sense for him to claim it

I would be happy personally, unless scum had a chance to win. That chance doesn’t exist here.

It's on eir but at the same time in my time playing this game (see: own bias) I never once thought conceding was an option. I never thought about quitting, and if I did I would just replace. I feel like something has changed in that regard
