Yeah what the hell, I'm really feeling a fire + ceph + vp right team right now. VP is openly deflecting the lim off of fire and VP's push on Ceph (which Ceph was so quick to mention) looks like a warm cup of buttermilk pudding.
Jfc. You know, I would actually work with you if you'd tinfoil less.

Oh good, I was the dumbass who put Ceph into the Town Core, now I can fix my mistake.

How would you like to have it done instead and would that be better than just learning one of your town reads is scum if an explosion occurs? To note, I’m not sure if you’re aware of this. But there are two bomb squads today and each has to have a minimum of 4 players in each. We can’t cut down on it.

yes im very aware, was this a joke

what i want to do is put a good town team that thinks they can work together at the top. catboi+pooky+andante+whoever they want

on the second team id ideally like to have some meh slots. i think being an expert puts a spotlight on scum, and their actions in that situation could be ai. if they just act town, then who cares it's no different from if they were town. if they lie and kill the defuser, that gives us info. if they openly admit they are going to kill the defuser or try to persuade the group to kill the defuser, that's super interesting and they're going to have to explain themselves and give some readable content in order to accomplish that

Like, stop trying to hero solve in D1 when we have no information. Stop acting like you have some divine tone read on me when we have played only a few games together and you don't have a demonstrated record of reading me well. Stop spinning off in a million directions ever 10 pages.

I think you're town for sure and if town can bloc up well, this game is much easier. We only need to find one scum today. That's hard enough, and doubly so when we also need to plan for the experts pool that scum are probably trying to manipulate too.

but if we have someone like frog in the group, scum don't have any pressure in the situation, they can say oh well, frog is here so my decision doesn't matter, and get out of the situation easily

I don’t feel much like there’s a spontaneity to you. You tend to make safe comments.
I never feel surprised at your takes or think they’re unique or imaginative.
I feel like you’re trying to get through the net primarily by making yourself available so that people feel like they’re treating you unfairly or that, you should be given “a chance”
But as mentioned, I don’t play fair. I play mafia. :cop:

The frogster needs to stop trying to hero solve talking point is, not a good talking point.

@cephrir: than do something that resembles scum hunting. I’m not going to heal you if you don’t.

oof that kinda hurts i think i have some good unique takes

but i think that's pretty fair. usually in games i get like immediately townread and then i work with those people to sort them and solve things. and i can kinda sit and watch what's going on and analyze from the sidelines. but this game, im what's going on. idk how to play my usual game when i get suspected but ig it's a good learning experience!

I don’t even know what to say to this when you’ve literally had like 8 scum games in a row and all that pent up solve should’ve gone somewhere.

I would be screaming from the roof tops, spamming and laughing maniacally

I can’t even really say, “but okay” because I’m not sure I’m okay with you this game.
Also, you chill when you’re scum too, externally.
Internally I know you stress about it, but in thread it doesn’t feel that way.
