It’s not though?

I want two masons alive. That’s the best. People came around to that.
But one confirmed town is still good. It’s not best but acceptable.
Name a worse outcome D2 then the one you listed as not being the end of the world.
Flash wagoning a cop
Investigatives/protectives slipping
Elimming someone before they claim a result and get flip hidden
Elimming someone that fucks with the gamestate

A mason is pretty low on importance in a game this size.

There’s probably more worse outcomes but that’s at the top of my head

I know he’s wrong on us if you even care about that and I still don’t see why Johnny’s scum? So tldr, your d1 kill list sucks.
you can disagree with someone without saying their opinions suck

im certainly not about to spend the game ignoring mathblade even if he does turn out to have had a single incorrect read on you
I said specifically that I think your d1 kill list sucks. I’m not saying that but he did tr two scums in PYP. It’s true he sometimes does have good reads like in the mini normal. All I know is his read on us is wrong.

I miss stated what I was asking. My fault.
I meant within the confines of the current claims.
Going from D1 to D2. It’s simply not a good outcome to miselim a mason.
That was my point. While it’s not the end of the world. It’s also not an acceptable outcome given how easily such a situation could be resolved.

I think there is something quirky about the way you read the game which causes you to be <random in the initial stages of the game, and then become rapidly >random as the game progresses, and the consequence is that other players are sometimes less willing to listen because of the bad early reads.

Rather than be resigned to it I think you can try to overcome it. One way you can try to overcome the early game weakness is by trusting others. For example, it's blatantly clear to me that Ceph is attempting to pocket you now by telling you what (he thinks) you want to hear.

But it kind of is? Like Mason’s utility goes down as player size goes up.

If scum want to expend their capital elimming a mason then that’s acceptable considering how low utility it is.

It’s literally not as bad as you’re making it.

So hence if people disagree and elim Roden it has to have scum backing which proves my active scum theory.

math is capable of giving explanations such that you can see how he got where he got

i don't have time to read mastina's posts that say "because i said so" 30 different ways; also, i was playing up my hostility towards mastina in that game to distance from her

Another point I was ran up and Corwin wasn’t.
Another point people aren’t consolidating and I wouldn’t be surprised if this sets a record for size.
I am no where near the biggest poster in the game.

There’s a lot of them. I should say prove to me.

Well keep trying IMO. It's not unusual to experience setbacks when you do the right thing, especially if it's a change from the usual.

Yes, that’s why I didn’t omgus him for his read on us because I could see a reasonable thought processes behind it, that doesn’t change the fact that he’s still wrong.

Arguing that he has a townie thought process behind his reads /= being right.
