I legit had a dream while waiting that Toog flipped

while we were waiting for the Shootin' Blind event to end so maybe think about some Grand Idea Mafia shenaigans sometime to help you out with that

I also have some legitimate advice for you in this situation or others like it in the future, but I think it borders a bit on being mean so if you'd rather not hear it I'm perfectly fine keeping it to myself to not tilt you.

are you actually enjoying the interactions we're having at this point? If you are then keep on keeping on but otherwise I feel like we can drop the cheekiness and the emojis.

I'm just tired of the game at this point. no offense meant to Morning Tweet b/c I think the flavor and theme are amazing but everyone except Ydrasse and me feels like they're incensed and bitter in various different ways.
maybe incensed isn't the right word for it but some feeling of combining energized and outraged.

I'm not going to get past your play in regards to the pink PT and how you prevented a Saber nomination that scum was pushing for
, and that you never took me or anyone else seriously enough to follow through on the skitter suspicions you said you had during the InfinityvsPeta event that weren't brought up again when skitter or Fire was in actual danger from the crossing event.

I just can't get past this no matter how I try to read

Ggy

as uninformed.

He didn't just say

"

Taly

your posts after the PT don't align with your viiews of what was implied in the PT"

or even frame that into a question.

He

accused

me of gatekeeping

Saber's

nomination. He didn't say I fencesat. He didn't say I waffled conveniently after the PTs. He didn't verify anything.

He can only make this statement if he had a real-time recount of what was happening in the PT as it went on.

Most of everyone was OK with a

Outside of

Skitter's

posts, this was all the information he would have in regard to the level of division in the PT, and it wasn't clearly stated how

Saber

failed to be nom'd outside of just a default vote.

And this happened because our PT ended with a default nomination with

SKITTER/TOOG

voting

PETA

.

So why is he both accusing me of inadvertently stopping

Saber

nom when his premise that

Skitter

wanted it was so easily invalidated?

Skitter

communicated what happened in the PT with him in their scum chat. That is the

only

rationalization I can find for it.

I'm not gonna paraphrase 21 pages of the pink PT that was just annoying to gi through the first time

And how did I prevent the Saber nom anymore than Ulya/Toog/Dwlee?

You can't answer that. So why does this make Pink PT the group with 2 scums?
sure is YOU CAN'T PROVE I'M SCUM over here

This is a borderline a scumclaim in itself.

When I question him on how he concluded that I was a bigger proponent to preventing

Saber

nom than any other flipped town - he

bristles

and just replies with

"yOu CaN't CaTcH mE"

Because he knows the answer and I'm trying to make him prove his guilt.

If he were town and still genuinely believed I was scum, why didn't he just justify himself here? The cheeky retort wasn't just to clap his ass in my face. He was distracting from something.

And then what? Ydra flips town and I as scum have to hope for a good event 10 to win?

I've lost if I'm scum, but not as town, even upon dying this phase, which i will not stop.
better than dying

please don't insult my intelligence by saying that as scum you'd give up here instead of continuing posting and hoping people would flip their reads on you, even if you thought is was very low % to work.

So

Ggy's

only premise so far on why he keeps me as scum is because I'm AtE'ing.

Sure, this is pretty valid assertion that I'm scum.

But then he turns it against me, and say that my objective reasons for being scum are wrong by punitively AtE'ing himself, believing that I'm talking down to him when I'm providing a justification for my feelings, why he SHOULD reconsider me, and that I still have no intention to gain anything from this.

But he has to turn against me at this point.

He's scum, and he can't turn back from his stance naturally.

This is a very manipulative post from him and I don't ever use that word lightly in mafia.

I could still be wrong about Taly being scum, I just still think they make much more sense as scum than anyone else in the game. Your idea of the scumteam seems to be that they went all-out in bussing Gemerald at the start, let him bus basically everyone but skitter back immediately and eventually bussing Fire at the end of the crossing. My thoughts on Gemerald are that a LOT of his pushes seem genuine, and I think he's played as I think a lot of townies do - fairly bullheaded with a focus on how people are reacting to his specific opinions and expecting people to either follow him or specifically convince
him
, not necessarily the game as a whole, that their opinions are correct and that he, Gemerald, should follow them.

Taly on the other hand has dumped tons and tons of thoughts into the thread about potential scum, complained about previous choices of "why didn't I put Saber in the duel!" but pushed for people to go with consensus reads while nudging those reads away from scum (aside from Dunn who wasn't participating enough in the game to be worth defending long-term), which fits WAY more in terms of what I expect scum to try to do to get townies eliminated without coming under fire for it.

Granted, I can't attribute all of that to strictly town/scum because there are substantial playstyle differences between the two. But I have a pretty solid archetype of "aggressive townie with a slightly self-centered game-view" in my head from previous games and I think GE fits that to a tee.

p-edit: can ya'll chill
it's still a game even when people you think people are being jerks or unfair by doing something and you can disagree with people diplomatically instead of doing out of game callouts and making the game worse

He never really explains how I nudged for

"consensus"[/b] to my benefit outside of the 2-seconds I voted

Fire

to cross with

Ulya

.

And honestly, if I did? How does outweigh the fact that I'm a huge reason we even had a townbloc in the first place? His premise doesn't necessarily align with a scum agenda of wanting to work with other players.

He even states this outright.

So why is he still gungho that I'm scum and he's already succeeded in eliminating me?

Backtracking proves his guilt.

Posted: **Wed Nov 17, 2021 2:41 pm**

But I know exactly one thing I've purposely withheld about the Pink PT from this point.

This was the run-down of my trajectory in the Pink PT

Everyone but Gemerald and Gypyx were my PoE and I strongly believed at the time that Pink PT being all town was an actual possibility because it was based around wagonomics than any clear randomization.

I also townread

Toog

strongly because I didn't see any scenario where scum wanted S/S.

Skitter

vehemently wanted

Peta

.

Infinity

was deadset on

Saber

./

I weakly pushed for Cakez nom. I even considered

And then Dwlee, who I townread more than anyone in that PT, told me that they believed there were 2 or even all 3 scum in the PT, and Skitter actively opposed this idea more than anyone else.

Dwlee also confided in the PT that they believed

Ydrasse

was the best choice for Blue Team Scum.

This got my wheels spinning and my first instinct was to check

Infinity/Skitter/Ydrasse

because I felt that if

Skitter

within her intro posts could point out that

Infinity

was so clearly out of their element early-game and not push it then perhaps

Dwlee

bagged at least 1 or both as scum since the stance was so unnatural.

Ydrasse

felt like scum because she was the vote that gave

Toog

wagon legs imo, and I figured they were just most likely scum flipping the script in the moment. So my entire focus was reading

Ydrasse

and seeing where the thread went with a

Ydrasse

nom.

And then both Skitter/Infinity - namely Skitter, spent over 10+ pages of our PT trying to dissuade me of a Ydrasse nom over Peta (in Skitter's view) or Saber (IN INFINITY's VIEW)

And that made me confbias a Ydrasse/Infinity/Skitter S/S/T or S/S/S real hard. Because I felt they dismissed my logic so strongly when Dwlee had already brought up the idea. So why were they defensive so much?

Skitter/Infinity also hardly interacted with Dwlee's continued suspicion and that dismissal really tilted me.

So I give

Infinity/Skitter

a very stern line.

I told them that I'm taking

Saber

AND

PETA

OFF the table for potential nominations because I don't trust them.

Almost nobody moves their vote with any strong conclusion after this division. Because

Skitter/Infinity

and

Dwlee/I

could not get past this issue.

And then

Toog/Ulya

both get their panties in a twist over this and

Toog

votes

Peta

just to have some type of nomination.

And guess what?

Infinity

gets nom'd in the Blue Team.

Posted: **Wed Nov 17, 2021 2:41 pm**

So yeah.

Gammagooey

is correct. I did in-fact play a key role in preventing a

Saber

nom in the Pink PT.

But I also halted a

Peta

nom, which is why I didn't vote there either.

And

Infinity

drove the

Saber

vote.

Not

Skitter

.

Guess who all the scumkills have been so far?

Pooky --> Infinity --> Dwlee...

and now

Taly

?

Oh wow, that's interesting. All 4 of us had something in common.

We scumread

Dunn

in Events 1/2.

Gammagooey's

whole argument on not rethinking me resides in a preemptive understanding of how I actually played in the Pink PT, and yet he's twisting it because it's SO EASY to look at his posts and think

"Wow,

Taly

actually was protecting his partner"

But my pink PT progression hardly had anything to do with

Saber

.

I was just 2v2ing with

Dwlee/Taly V Skitter/Infinity

because I mindmelded with

Dwlee

and wanted an

Ydrasse

flip.

is a walking scumclaim.

And if you guys still think my in-the-moment aggressive personality is more likely scum-driven here?

https://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.p ... 0#p7493970

This was the only game I made elo and caught scum. Read page 66 and after, it's not long.

This is old meta, so I'm very tonally different, but I'm behaviorally very similar.

I lost unfortunately because despite everybody in the Dead PT seeing my play, I couldn't convince a towny that already preemptive reasons to suspect me as scum over

ABR

.

And that's exactly how I feel the gamestate is here now.

I'm dying this game. I got nothing else.

nice to know I was right about something at least

If you're town I absolutely don't expect you to believe me but I got everything I talked about from what you and everyone else from the Pink PT put in the thread. I quoted a few things from you in particular earlier, and would encourage anyone else to go skim through the early parts of the infinity/peta event's posting to see what they could infer about the Pink PT from everyone's descriptions of it.
