Oh okay cool...it is Mara.
Now, the part of having a conversation is you explaining what I told you to explain. Because I have an idea for why you voted us, and if my suspicions are correct, then you are either batshit or you're scum.
Guess which one I'm leaning right now?
Because you hydra with Mala and there is literally no way you can claim that she's scumming up the thread. There's just not. Sorry.

It's not immoral to have the hider claim and the tracker track him. It's called using the roles that town is given to the maximum potential so that town can win.In post 252, notscience wrote:Or

NS. The setup is there. Not taking advantage of it is not "giving the scum a fair shot". There's a reason this setup has been run multiple times even though people have figured out this strategy. It's because it's not unfair. And it's not like we're going to sit here nolynching in the interim."I would prefer not to." --Herman Melville,Bartleby the Scrivener- Syryana

Tammy, sure I have a hydra with Mala though she is the only partner I don't have a clear record with when it comes to reading them outside of it
Though I'm pretty sure that, when she goes straight into "working for town" she is, more so that not, scum.
her first few posts are her working for town, and her stroking my own ego both of which are things that put me on edge, especially since she goes after them this early

....... This is so not true and you know it. I was around when the last HB game started.. Did I come out and go with this plan? No, I did not. I have been known to work for the town as town. I like this plan, it works and I see no reason not to use it.In post 261, VioleNt Saxophone wrote:

that like literally doesn't even make sense. But is such a stupid reason for a scum read on someone that I almost think it has to come from town.
Why did it not cross your mind that she has played in this setup before and used a method that was beneficial for town. You do realize you're the one who brought up that the hider should claim, and she linked to her experience. I was going to ask about this myself and suggest it if anyone knew the way to break the game because I knew there was a way to do it.
How did she stroke your ego? By agreeing with your idea and linking to a past experience in which it was used? I'm sorry to break this to you darling, but that is not stroking your ego.
Also, her asking for your read on TiP isn't remotely like setting up a mislynch on someone. You're literally saying she's scum because she didn't townread someone soon enough? This is exactly what I thought you voted us for, and I'm just going to. Just find a bat and see if beating myself upside the head makes this make sense.
Oh I forgot to ask you about this. What the hell does this mean? Maybe my English skills are slipping but I've read it 10 times and still can't grasp the meaning of it.In post 253, VioleNt Saxophone wrote:

The more and more I think about your posts this game they just seem really scummy, but I'd like to think that scum you would actually try to make sense, so you just have me super confused.- Cait Sith

The entirety of the game is not set up up around one player. It's maximizing the use of the roles we were given. All it's going to do is give us confirmed towns or a confirmed scum. We're still going to be lynching as usual during the day, we just get to have the added benefit of using information from roles that were given to us for it.In post 258, notscience wrote:Wrong.
It makes it all the easier for town to win the game. Basing the ENTIRETY of the game around ONE player is a TERRIBLE idea.
I want both teams to be on even footing, rather than stack the sides. Stacking the sides ruins the fun.
It's not even close to stacking the sides.- BROseidon

...Breaking open setups is part of playing an open setup. If you don't like using gamestate to your advantage day 1, don't play opens. Hider should claim.In post 237, notscience wrote:Hider do not claim

As long as people are CAREFUL around L-1's it's fine.
But you're going for a breaking mechanism which is BS
