How is general wu the most controversial today? Nero talked about him fluff posting a lot, which is pretty whatever.

Not sure how that is controversial.

Wu is is my giant null pile with lots of other people who haven't done much that is AI

Datisi hasn't pressured me actually. Which makes me suspicious because if Datisi remembers me as the one who "ripped through town" in that one game, then he must have due cause to pressure me. Also, when prompted by Nero, he gave up assessing my meta at the mere sight of the word "daddy". I believe Datisi would have spent some proper time sorting me. Datisi is also bolder to announce his reads, however bad. He also tries to create a townblock in my experience. That doesn't happen here. His participation does not influence this game, which is pinging my bottom.

Sure let's discuss Datisi then.

Why does Scum Tisi decide to not create a townblock?

If Datisi's replies in a satisfactory manner, I'm switching my vote to VP.

also why do you think it's impossible for you to form reads this early but also claim datisi should be able to form a townblock this early?

are your abilities so much lower than his?

Do you have a previous case of Datisi pressuring you off the bat? Is it scum!indicative for him to be interacting with people other than you?

He lowered his opinion of your scum game based on Nero giving him a counter example.

maybe he's trying to play lowkey, maybe he's too preoccupied under heavy pressure, maybe he doesn't want to accidentally create a good townblock that can put this directionless game in a more focused one. there could be countless of answers, some might not be too obvious to us at the minute. But why town datisi wont is a bigger concern for me.

I think you're mafia and I think datisi is town and I find your reasoning in your post to be absolutely ridiculous on its face.

You assume that Datisi is able to create a townblock in the first 24 hours of a large theme... which makes very little sense to me - you also previous stated you think nothing ai has actually happened and you think people shouldn't be able to form reads - this is a contradiction just on the surface.

You are imposing a standard that by your own admission is absurd upon Datisi and using it to push him.

like why are you even pretending to be confused by my actions?

just on the last page you stated that you think I am scum trying to misyeet you and now you're pretending you have no idea why I could be pursuing this line with you?

No, but if he does claim that I'm good scum, I expect him to be more suspicious. I only had two completed games with Datisi iirc.

What do you mean by "townblock"? Can you quote the reply where he implied that?

i'm confused because you're not trying to play a game with me. you're actively becoming more hostile with mentions of me being less skilled or Datisi's opinion of me being lowered.

in context he claimed you were good scum in order to defend you from people pushing you for giving a "lol" defense.

as in he thinks you are town because he thinks scum!you doesn't react that badly.

as in he is sorting you by looking at how you interact and decided the reaction was likelier from town you because scum you in his viewpoint is somewhat competent.

You said on the last page I am trying to kill you because I am mafia.

Why are you pretending to be confused by my actions now?

In fact if your world view is that Ari!scum is trying to misyeet me - my actions on this page should make perfect sense to you no?

If you believe Ari/Datisi are scum together this would be a textbook example of chainsaw defense no?

Instead you're
confused
about what I'm doing?

I care more about process, scumrange and how people play in different alignments/scenarios. Whether you win or lose a scum game is irrelevant to me.

I assume Datisi is able to create a townblock because that's how i remember his playstyle in early games.
