I thought you were referring to him being an asshole earlier in the game. It was made towards him.

Ok, I know I said I wasn't going to respond to Bubba, but....what? Were your last few comments even in English? Please explain that rattled post because if it wasn't a response to what I've been saying the entire time, then it seems you're just shitposting.
@Rob: not sure if that's sarcasm. If not. Make better arguments.
The fact that I was scum in that game has no bearing on anything, you realize, right? I posted about that game merely as a means for someone to gain perspective on why I'm reacting to rpm's anger at perceived slights in the way that I did. If you wish to draw a direct parallel, which I did not intend anyone to do, then I would be in the position of the townie doing the insulting, not the scum doing the "being angry".
The more important lesson to draw from that game is my alignment didn't matter as to how I reacted. I would have reacted the same way as town. As I said in my last post, some of the insults hurled at me in that game, as minor as they seemed to the person saying them, corresponded to specific real-life situations I was going through at the time that pushed some buttons that didn't need to be pushed. You can't analyze that type of reaction. It's independent of alignment. That's why I brought it up in the first place - I don't think it's fair by a long shot for piratecat to analyze rpm's anger towards me early on in the game. There are certain things you just don't question, even in Mafia. One of those things is someone asking you to stop insulting them. If you try to consider town/scum motivations behind such a thing, then you're going to be an asshole and nobody will like you. I tried not to be that asshole, which is why I responded to rpm's posts the way I did.
Meanwhile, I'm done talking or responding to Bubba, because if I continue to do that, I'll say things I'll regret.
okay
I find it weird cos I know I have hit you hard as town before and you didn't freak out or anything, you defended yourself well even if it did get you on a trolleytracking "mollie is scum!" trajectory

Geez, you guys move faaast (=^-ω-^=)
Not really loving rmp's reactions or her explanations but she's not as scummy as thiiis~

He's setting up a a chain lynch by proposing a false rmp/bubba dichotomy, saying one is scum if the other isn't, but there's no reason for this. One of them doesn't HAVE to be scum if the other's town, and they don't have any interactions that would suggest this, plus he moved his vote to bubba after he got attacked for his rmp vote.
(also I'm from EM too that's why I signed up for this game :3)

You apprently aren't reading Rob.
I was asking Pirate how I seemed rattle, and I made a comment towards you about town pushing scum buttons and you went ape shit.
Also I can't get over you talking about your scum meta, I never brought it up, but it's clear it was on your mind.
"I would have reacted the same way as town."
That's the most concerning part about that whole post.

How so? I was talking about another game that I thought you had brought up. Read the game and then read your own post. It's fairly clear how I misinterpreted it. I'm still confused as to what you were responding to re:Piratecat.
Mollie: A specific word was used in that game that had direct relationship to a bad situation I had just gotten out of at the time in real-life. I normally don't overreact to crap. However, I understand that I can't know what's going on in people's real lives better than some, and so I accept certain things at face-value and don't consider them as alignment-relevant. One of those is definitely any request to tone it down or drop a specific attitude.
Once again I said this thinking she was talking of your earlier altercations with me and rmp.
I never brought up your scum meta.

We're letting BBMolla slip through the cracks. Does anyone see a real reason for any of his votes? He tells me that he had a reason for voting me but hes not going to tell me. He then unvotes me and votes bubba... no reason stated... then he unvotes and votes jake 'because he's probably scum' then he townreads bubba and I and outs his reads, says the game is mostly solved, and votes catboi by reasoning of 'Gut'

It's not that we don't like you, your tells are just wrong.
In post 121, rmpeacoc wrote:3. BBMolla is from EM I do believe? I'm sure some of you have also played on EM before.
Yeah I am, my first few games my tells and such were still from EM too. Just be aware that most EM tells don't apply here.
FWIW Jake is probably scum this game of some flavor.
UNVOTE: VOTE: Jake
In post 129, bubbajack8 wrote:Rob you are an asshole. You are saying I'm the VI when I garuntee me and RMP have played mafia LONGER then you have. I understand mafia. I understand this setup. It is an EM setup.
Doesn't mean you understand forum mafia better than those who have played forum mafia longer, get off your high horse kid.
Bubba's probably town yeah. Peacoc too. You possibly Rob.
Rob I don't meta, but I find it interesting how your scum meta was obviously on your mind.....
Except that you brought it up first (or so I thought from interpreting your post). I was not the only one confused over your post - piratecat expressed confusion as well.
Piratecat asked about my game in which I was scum that I had brought up. You then made a direct response to cat's post. Is it unreasonable for me to assume that you have the reading comprehension skills to understand what cat was referring to and saying? Apparently, it was.
@Rmp - You're moving up my town books, but BBmolla has this in his meta. I normally read him as scum (or at least have in the past) because of this type of play, and he inevitably flips town. It's not a good tell to use against him. Also, vote analysis only works post-flip. Trying to run vote analysis pre-flip is premature, assuming you're referring to traditional voting analysis (determining where confirmed town/scum voted and who voted on confirmed town/scum, etc.) The only thing you can really analyze on votes in Day 1 is whether the voting matches the reads or whether it's opportunistic.

Yet I never said anything about your scum meta, I never brought it up.
YOU did

"I would have acted that way as town as well"

Rob,
I forgot what game I was in... forgot it was Day 1.
Anyway Day 1 vote analysis can still work because you can see who is wagon hopping and if there are any voting patterns. I'll do it this weekend when there are more votes to use. I'm not talking about reads at all here, I'm talking about patterns. I'm not saying there are any yet but I'd like to see.

Also:
It's easy to see bubba and I the way that Fuzzy sees us.
But you gotta realize we're friends. Which is also why I'll never townread bubba and I'll always be leery of him.
I'm easily convinced by friendship. It's a weakness.

Again, I thought you had brought it up because you responded to a post talking about that specific game and referred to scum having their buttons pushed, which is what happened to me in that game. YOUR misunderstanding over what Piratecat posted caused ME to misunderstand what you posted, leading me to respond to you how I would have had you exercised proper reading comprehension and posted what you did in response to what Piratecat was talking about, instead of an unrelated subject.
I understand. It's tough to admit that you have difficulty reading. It's okay, though. We're here to support you.
Rpm: Wagon hopping isn't scummy unless it's opportunistic. If it's done to apply pressure, it's likely town motivated. At this point in time, it's not really a pattern that you can gain any info from. Not enough votes in the game yet to establish opportunistic voting.

As I said earlier, I thought she was referring to the altercation with me you and rmp.
It's still true that your scum meta was on your mind.
My conclusion is still true, despite me providing no non-flawed reasoning to reach it.
I'm done arguing because you're winning
FTFY
But seriously, you agree that you misunderstood piratecat, which opened the door for me to misunderstand you. You've agreed that in the context of the conversation, it was reasonable for me to interpret your post as you bringing up my scum meta. But it must have still been on my mind, because FUCK YOU THAT'S WHY. lol?
