bullshit Titus
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I think its fascinating how there are clear lines showing now within my more solid scumreads atp.

bout to cross reference a tictac scum game to put it to rest that my theory is correct that this is how tictac approached scum.

@Nero - https://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.p ... #p13356835 Not trying to overwhelm you here, I know it's a lot, but when you get the chance, can you check at pages 138-142. Catboi specifically.

In post 4215, Nashville Dreams wrote:Your answer is semantic rather useful. Your response to my allegation is to claim 1) my question isn't valid because you scumread me. I think we can all see the problem with that. 2) it nitpicks the substance rather than gets at the substance.

A counterwagon is a wagon that exists at the same time as another.

Catboi and Monkey were counters early. You were on Monkey.
Catboi and I were counters. You were on me.
Arguably you weren't on Wallflower, but you were on Monkey at the time.
Bnuuy started at 3631, while catboi was still there. The wagon on me was dying and you jumped.

Even if you disagree with the semantics of "counterwagon", you still are fine or have been fine with every single major wagon this game but for catboi and tictac.

What gives?
I actually didn't fully absorb who I was replying to, hence the "Nashville" instead of "you". My first sentence was part of the explanation for why I was on that wagon, not why your question was invalid. I already answered the substance of your question. The wagons that I've joined are on people who I scumread. The wagons that I haven't joined are on people who I don't scumread. I haven't particularly followed who is a counter wagon to whom due to the infrequent votecounts. I'm also much less inclined to join a wagon led by someone I scumread. Part of the reason I joined the original bnuuy wagon (if I'm remembering correctly) is that it was led by people I townread. Despite Flavor Leaf's insistence that the whole game has revolved around catboi, I don't think that's terribly accurate.

You provided a single run.

I can say I've done a Lamb/Mega Santa/Delirium run in one and it doesn't make me good at the game.

You used an outlier game, and the mini games play entirely differently to large.

Oddly off point for you actually.
Notice Keeper is discrediting me here- but not actually providing a real counter argument.
Discrediting a flawed argument is a perfectly valid response. You're expecting a macro response to a case you've fine tuned with different parameters.

like Titus perpetuating the lie that I always scum read her is just dumb. Like maybe its something she actually believes but it's so far from the truth.

ok look

from the first run of this setup concept

if you think someone is malefactor - the play is to ignore them - not eliminate. (until we are ahead then its ok to do so but even so)

lukewarm i believe pretty much botched their miller fakeclaim in that game and we just ignored that slot (or whoever was the malefactor.

also like jokes exist

I think I've been fairly consistent in being willing to join wagons with my townreads/on people I scumread, and less interested in wagons led by people I scumread/on people I don't scumread. I think Nashville Dreams' analysis of it is in bad faith, and is setting out to prove a narrative that she came up with. Still would love to vote there, but it seems that's not happening toDay anymore.

First, why are you disappointed about that specifically
Second, why do you think Ydrasse is aiming to “buy time” with a Malefactor claim? Buy time for what? For whom?
I like having correct reads and a d1 norway flip would have been glorious.

and ummm we aren't voting out the claimed Malefactor for ??? reason so like claiming seems to have stalled their wagon wich sorta proves my point
Malefactors a miselimination. It's in their favour to be eliminated.

looks like democracy is disagreeing with your take keeper.

keep using the discredit tactic btw its cracking me up :lol:

I provided concise things! descriptions of play! quotes from past game! quotes from this game!

what have you provided?

"i play with tictac and i disagree bc meta"
and
"tictac posting style consistent in town games"

see the issue I am having with you here?
