if he was town he'd say he's just leaving

he wouldn't say "he wants L3 to leave."

If this is the case, I apologize.

But I'm obviously not doing it on purpose. Sometimes things that you think are obvious aren't really. It almost never hurts to humble yourself and explain it.

Eh. I honestly don't care at this point. I have put more time and energy per real life day into this game than I have in any other game of mafia. And that's more than 7 years of mafia. I feel so solid on this read right now.

I could actually go for a Misty flip though.

G6 consider my vote for G1 at this time, but you gotta talk the lady into it.

That's a joke, by the way.

Unfortunately playing mafia forever doesnt equate to accurate reads.

The joke is funny, because calling what I'm doing a chainsaw defense and legitimately believing it is like trying to lynch firebringer when he opens with "I rolled scum guys" in the RVS stage of a game.

Everyone else refuses to do it and is just saying "make a decision already" without telling me how they will respond to what decision I make, as though I don't deserve to know that in order to factor it into my decision.
What you talk about here and in your other posts on the same page tell me L5 seemed like a great match for you. So why would you not pick her? Actually, I can figure that out myself: you didn’t think that would reflect well on you. Well maybe it would not have, but grandstanding about the situation reflects worse than that would, that I can be sure of.

This is, or should be, the entire point of pairing. Townreads with townreads, nulls with nulls, scumreads with scumreads, then eliminate them generally from the bottom up.

But there's no consensus on me. And nobody is endeavoring to form one. They're trying to use my pair to determine their read on me, which is backwards.
Then ask L5??????????

This is stalling, you know it, I know it. Theres over 50 pages of information, you should have some semblence of who to pick at this point.
In post 1446, Gentleman 5 wrote:I think there is a reason why you havent picked L5.

Is it because you dont townread her, or because you both are scum?
G5 being so matched with me in how we view this makes me feel just that much better about my beliefs. I recall G6 throwing some hate his way as well, so I definitely get the sense the mafia at this point are just {G3, L5, G6}.

Time and energy, on the other hand, does.

And I wasn't saying I felt solid because of my time in mafia, I was saying it because of time and energy, hence sentence structure.

Ballsy as hell for scum-G4 to jump in to save scum-G1 at this point, but if it worked and got rid of G6 as Townleader early in the bargain too I mean

Or, you know, make stupid guesses and ad hoc modifications to support your preconception. Your choice.

What if the scumteam is G1 G4 and G8?

G6 can you link your path to victory? I'm working 12 hour days until the weekend.

notice that

scum are both pushing the agenda that i'm scum all of a sudden

because they realize there is no path to endgame without killing me via lynch

No, he can't.

I already asked him for it and his response was "if you try to lynch me, you're scum."

I would like to see my primary suspects of L5 and G3 go before I consider actually working on G6. My feelings about G6 are rather predicated on my perspective of the game being right, so if it is wrong I don’t want to do so much damage that the game probably goes down the drain. Which is what likely happens if I scratch and claw for G6 to go.

Whats really sad is I honestly thought you and G6 were going to reveal some damning information during the dance and town autowins.

We never got your reads

Btw, that quote says G5, but I did not say that. :D
