Open 834: Trust Fall - Game Over

[Prism]

I'm acknowledging that my reads are fallible and I might be wrong that you are town. I'm not currently of the opinion you are scum.

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

My take is that Pooky is scum who came into this game deciding to do his little rp with Tammy flirting, then I ruined it for him and he found a new thing to do now

btw i am fully fine with f2 with wisdom since he thinks im scum

wisdom didnt respond to this because hes mafia

[Prism]

I know I've said I would step away and take a walk, which I did, but now I've got some other reading I want to get through. Legal history is surprisingly fun sometimes!

I really think the game would benefit from other voices at this point, too. Infinity, maybe now is the time to power town?

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

like i love how wisdom has 5000 responses for mafmen but dead silence for me

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

performative garbage

he has the time to argue about irrelevant nonsense but when he gets pushed himself he goes into hiding

[Wisdom]

Youre not worth responding to
Youre calling me dictator over a single trust
If youre town and this is genuine thats sad

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

lol

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

walking back calling me scum he realizes he loses in f2 with me

classic

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

your immediate kneejerk reaction was to fire back

now you are trying to de escalate because this game is not something you can 1v1 as SvT and win

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

pathetic

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

you should at least take 12 hours to re-evaluate

backing down this fast just makes it look like you never had the real thought that i was scum in the first place.

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

youre town and this is genuine thats sad

transitioning from

"pooky scumbag" to "pooky sad town" pretty bad

[Infinity 324]

i really hope pooky is scum

[Infinity 324]

Maybe you're right and Wisdom is scum. I still prefer Klick in the final two but there are two scum somewhere, not one.

I'm really curious about what Tammy & Infinity think.

i should probably reread a bit, i still think the clear sequence is probably +town for wisdom

he feels pretty towny to me on tone, i also thought the push on mafmen was believable

i'd prefer leaving klick

[Prism]

Presentation matters, and it would be a shame to guess correctly only to pursue it in a way that cedes your own influence, let's Wisdom outmaneuver you, and harms your chances of winning the game. Moral victories are nice but actual ones are much sweeter.

[Infinity 324]

i really hope pooky is scum

though i really don't see how he thinks this advances his wincon

[Infinity 324]

i dont care about winning

i care about being right

[Prism]

Then I, too, hope you are scum-that your claims in the value of cooperation, against the unilateralist, against the egocentric and self-concerned and self-assured-have not in reality warped so far off track as to be unrecognizable.

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

whatever

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

i was right about everything last trust fall game

if i had sui bombed meg we would have won

instead the town ignored me and lost

i dont particularly care if this town decides to lose as well

winning/losing is not important to me

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

i really hope pooky is scum

you should express a readp

[Prism]

You don't talk like someone to whom winning/losing is unimportant to.

You're too old to have me babysit you. You're not petapan. It's okay to be frustrated if people don't see what you see. Don't scorched earth it or act like you sign up for these games just to be a self-righteous asshat. You want to win so play like it.

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

i also expressed scumreads on wisdom scum in 2 games and was right in both games

i do not care if people do not listen to me

if i allow myself to get fustrated about that I would be unable to play this game.

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

i am not scorch earthing anything?

ive literally not trusted anyone
