I'm sorry, i still dont understand what you're getting at. Can you start from the beginning?
When koba/DC started their argument about some bs it happened when Datisi and Pooky were having the big fight. It would be the perfect chance for mafia to be like, lets start a fight that people won't try to vote on because it will be over shadowed by

this much more important argument but will distance us. Now moving to the present, I had asked pooky about koba's alignment based on the actions of DC who Pooky said had faked his reactions. Now obviously there had been talk that it was obviously

not a real claim so I should have known that it was a fake reaction and I had even commented that I should have kept reading so I would have realized that. But I still asked the question, which would make me an idiot... but Aldu referred to my

questions as being big brained.
I meant "big brained" as "you're overthinking it and are probably wrong but the fact that you're overthinking it seems town."

I don't think you came up with "let's work up mask paranoia regarding Miccro's account in the game in order to get the scum to think that Miccro could possibly be non-vanilla PR who changed his account in order to pretend to be a vanilla townie so that their pool for where the PRs could be expands by a tiny amount" in 30 seconds while glancing at Miccro playing under a different name. That's a very convoluted thought to have and not naturally the first thought that comes to a townie's mind when seeing the role in the OP and in the PM from moderator to us. It feels very much like an excuse you invented after the fact when you were just typing random stuff in the beginning.
I like fantasizing about crazy mafia plays like this tho ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Why did you act like you thought it was real even after Koba explicitly admitted it was fake?

Page 58 skittering duck argument: I don't agree with TW's scumread on skitter. Firstly, I think the toxicity of the earlier part of the game explains anything "off" about skitter's tone that TW might be perceiving. Secondly, TW says that scum-skitter's most sensible play is to push TW, but I don't think that makes sense when she could have gone for me or dsj, or even DC.

I did not act like I thought it was real after dkko outed it. I drew people's attention to the town wincon to make it look like there was more likely to be a vig.

you/dsj are low hanging fruit aorn & going for DC who was mid reaction test would have been ridiculous

also you very literally picked a fight with me on D1 as scum in the last game we played together?
Even if i agree with the logic that i'd need to go after a high impact player (i'm not sure i do, but ok lets go with the argument, sure), you're not the person i'd start a push on in this pl here

If you're talking about mbos, i didnt push you. It was a getting out of rvs thing to make it look like i had Reads ans Opinions. I dont remember exactly how i read you but if i did say o scumread you it wasnt a push that i intended to actualize/wanted to force to an elim
If you're talking about tm, i didnf pick a fight with you
Even assuming you didn't have a scumbuddy in the PoE who else are you going after here?

- dkko isn't happening
- donco isn't happening
- you're not getting anywhere with datisi
- bugspray is almost always elimbait but is actually towny
- Pooky is a claimed tpr
- Aldus is lhf
- dsj is lhf

like where else do you ever go?

I don't think drawing the difference between faking a read on me to get out of RVS to look good & faking a scumread here is actually pertinent to your meta?

def not talking about tm; actually your play here is probably closer to tm than mbos wrt gamestate impact and I think I agree that the fighting would take more of a toll than your alignment.

Aldus, what exactly was your reasoning for pming the mod and asking if anyone could play under a mask account

This comes up twice in your ISO fairly far apart so the excuse “oh I didn’t think about it for more than 30 seconds” seems like bs

first is me being like highly ironic

second is not relevant to the rxn test and I'll talk to dkko about postgame if they want.

Exploring possibilities + raising doubt about it means that DC isn't confirmed as vanilla which helps town PRs hide

so you weren't suspicious about DC-scum faking a mask-role, you were just trying to raise doubt in order to help hide the townie PRs?


In other words you wanted scum to think it was possible that DC was actually a PR that faked being a masked-vanilla in order to hide his PR-Nature and thus you expressed paranoia?

Just want to make sure I understand your plan correctly.

I don't think your play makes sense as scum.
We've mindmelded on some townreads.
Your scumhunting looks genuine.

curiosity + if micc says yes then it's important that we not assume that DC's role came from the mask game

pedit: @TW: how is that ironic?
@lilith: I'm not comfortable giving a reads list until I'm fully caught up but here are some reads I'm fairly sure won't change in the meantime.
town: datisi, dsj, skitter
scum: pooky (but the PR stuff means I'll have to move my vote elsewhere... but if I die today please don't let this slot coast on Day 2 or Day 3)

I think I’ll just use this one post as my example

Aldus’ ISO is like... not one that indicates he’s having complex strategies planned about the game, but then he says that his reason for repeatedly bringing up the mask accounts is that he had this super complicated plan to make DC look like he was maybe a PR and like reverse reverse psychology scum about DC’s role. That doesn’t jibe with anything else in Aldus’ ISO where he’s like trying to be carefree and shitposting
