See, I have great difficulty telling stupid play and scummy play apart. Yates could tell you that from the time we WEREN'T scumbuddies, in Starfox 64, where kdowns played so terribly I was 100% convinced, as if I had a guilty result on him, that he had to be mafia. No other explanation for the things he did. I still scratch my head over it today.

Part of the problem, I suppose, is that he voted me, and I was modfirmed town. But I digress.

Point is, my mafia analysis often violates the maxim "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity." I just am not a good enough mafia player to figure out the precise extensions of stupid and scummy behavior, respectively. So, I am avoiding the temptation to call for the lynches of everyone who has voted me in this awful wagon.

HOWEVER, I really tried, in good faith, to find a town motivation for what Psyche is doing. Couldn't. I'm going with him for scum, and second place can go to anyone who hammers me. Then, BK, there could be a slot for you, but I really really want to be talked out of it. I'd hate to be bad as town again!

1. A fifth vote on :mumblemumble: is better than RVS? Well why don't we just :mumble: the :mumble: night 1?

2. I already explained. It's not an opinion - it's a misstatement of fact (also, opinions can be wrong. Why do people think they can't be?) Psyche was wrong, I've shown it, and now you're doubling down on something completely refuted. That's bad!

3. Why are you avoiding my questions?

3a. No, seriously, you just completely deflected. Huh! What a scumtell.

Lynch BK after Psyche, folks. Thanks. I know you'll obey me when I flip.

People hammer for all sorts of reasons. People post like Psyche because they are scum.

Because there was no motivation to what you did but a scummy one. I even gave you a chance to back off! If you were town, you should have had a sinking feeling you were doing a terrible thing for your win condition.

Hey, I even let you kiss my ring. We could have been pals!

Quoting to answer last part of #52. The rest of #52 would just be me repeating myself.

"seeing things that arn't there." Tone. If I had to go into detail it would be where you say Psyche is being lynched today, when you're at L-1 or L-2. In that situation that seems like UberNinja/Kondi style of trying to win people over with confidence.

I'll ignore the rest b/c its just an attack on the poster.

1. And I said I'm not good at analysis. So where do you think the confidence comes from?

2. That's a clever trick. If I can't attack posters in a game of mafia, what exactly can I do? Are we playing chess? Should I capture your rook? I thought mafia was a game of human interaction. WHO STEERED ME WROOOOONG

Do you think there was a risk someone would lynch me just because that sounded so cocky? Because if anyone would do that (hi kdowns are you reading this game), that person would be violating that rule of playing to their wincon.

And generally just being metabad at mafia.

[joke]Guys, there is WAY too much happening already. Have you seen DBZ? 5 minutes takes 12 episodes. Cool your jets.[/joke]

Acosmist, I can't tell if you're trolling. You look at your suspect's posts and tell us what's wrong with them.

Also, serious now: I think a flavor knowledge claim is a good idea.

I know almost nothing about DBZ.

Are you serious? It's earlygame. And as an earlygame poster, it's my job to push people's buttons until they do something silly. And from that, build a D1..!

UN and Kondi do that as town, too, though. A lot of people do. >.>

vote BK

Not buying his justification for joining the wagon he's no longer on. And his joining the Psyche one seems like an escape route.

I'm getting townreads from Acomist. He's got spunk. And spunk is sexy.

I don't think anyone would lynch you for sounding cocky. Its null obviously. Coming off artificial or forced is a scumtell though. I'm not sure enough to lynch you for it, and I never saw you as in danger of being lynched considering how scummy it would make the hammerer look should you flip town.
