Who am I into this? Also, nobody is going to understand you ;-; nice names tho
MULTIQUOOOOOOTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Thanks for explaining yourself, but I feel like you also think this is a game about debating topics and being right? Its not. This is a game of finding understanding in the dark. Your strategy is bad because of your approach. Do you see what Im taking issue with?
Like, you seem allergic to acknowledge that my perception of your word choice 'aggressive' could be interpreted as vague and taunting. And if you are unwilling or unable to recognize something obvious and small like that, then it feels like your entire strategy is in bad faith.
Bad faith meaning you have no intention of reading posts or conversations in good faith. Meaning, in the context of the game, you're not looking for understanding, you're looking to be right. But thats just a REALLY bad approach to the game if you are trying to solve in the first place.
I think you could be Town, I'm not trying to discredit you, so please understand what I'm saying. I think you need to approach the game with a more open mind to accepting the other's viewpoint.
Simple as that.
As for the initial conversation you started with me?
This is your quote
You make a claim but you don't use any reference for us to have a conversation around to reach understanding. When I ask for a reference you never provide one. Again, this is play in bad faith. You're not looking to reach understanding through communication. I really thjnk you don't understand the point of the game. Its not about pointing out things that are wrong, its about DISCUSSION and trying to find understamding in the dark.
So right, this isn't me saying: LOL you Mafia
I'm also not saying: Bahaha you bad at game
I'm saying, please try to shift your approach to the game
Try to recognize the other side, and look for understanding
Does that seem reasonable?
I know this is a lot about nothing but playstyle but I figure ut's important you understand where I'm comjng from.
I'm not playing 'aggressive' by engaging in conversation. I'm playing in a manner that seeks understanding. Not in a way that belittles or seeks to elevate myself. Again, I'm very reasonable, open to criticism and good faith conversation.
Yes they are because its annoying having to read 500+ posts with nothing of substance. It only dilutes useful information.
And teal was trying to steer the conversation in a more useful way.
My post was only to urge you to, make a post about how you feel so far since you have failed to do so in your 90 posts.
Oh you misunderstand me , i don't see an argument here that has to be won.
Simply hoping Mulan posts his thoughts about the game.
/sigh Some people search for conflict, others simply must remind us of the reality of war. We are in fact in a town on the brink of disaster (a goofy town by my first impression) and Mr. Cage is indeed trying to do something. I'm just not sure of what or how. Are we beginning by arguing for the sake of arguing?
Spoiler : A lot of blabla that doesn't answer my and green worm's question :
"your play is 5-8 on 100" is pretty much "bahaha you're bad at game" lol, if that's not what you meant it was very poorly worded, since it's rather unambiguous...
But since it's not so useful to repeat myself over the meaning of words and expressions, I'll just repeat myself on the actually important point you have not addressed despite it being in size 4 teal. And I will make sure it is visible, so that you cannot miss it.
What are your reads, and why are they the way they are? Give them all and explain them.
If your reply to this post does not contain your reads and explainations related to them, my vote will remain on you and I will make sure you get lynched today. And whether your blood is green or red, it will be washed from our hands by your silence.
Amen.
Note that I'm very reasonable. A reasonable town player whose questions are being blatantly ignored several times will reasonably demand answers, and will reasonably lynch the one who keeps ignoring his questions. Hence why I'd like a reply, por favor.
right, I can definitely see how you see me as antagonizing. I'm playing in a manner with Jiles that by all means is that way. Its probably in poor form because, although I'm certain they are Mafia, I should treat them with respect and ddcency as a person I n behind the account. But my intention isn't to be seen as knee antagonizing another, that was definitely a mistake on my part. Please understamd my position, I am positive they are Mafia, I am not looking for reactions, I am not even really looking for credit. I just need everyone to understand that sooner or later, in order to win, we will have to vote out or eliminate Jiles. Its just that simple.
I don't think I would ever talk about the coroner. Ever. I don't agree with talking about power roles or hyoithesizing what they should do, or think etc. It only risks exposure, especially this early. Does that make sense?
Also its interesting that you would have me leaning not Town. I feel like I singlehandedly brought the state of play out of the gutter and my back is so tired from all that carrying now. Further, I think it's pretty rotten to suspect players who have brought the most to the game. It doesn't make logical sense and it doesn't feel right? I'm not sure how to ohrase it, but its the opposite of a mind meld. Still, its good to know. Frankly, I doubt you'd have the guts to doubt me as Mafia so I still think you're Town oddly, however wrkng.
I think eventually you're going to have rework your Jiles read, but thats more of a reflection on you.
About paranoia, it concerns me in that Im trying to understand your behavior in order to solve you. I think paranoia can be Towny if its done in a certain way, its hard for Mafia to fake. You being paranoid would explain why your reads feel like they're coming from the upside down world and I could figure out where you're coming from.
Your last questions reads a bit cagey? Do you not want me trying to understand you?
Green Worm is right. Without understanding his reasoning, we'll end up talking about nothing. A road block. Mr. Cage, could I suggest you take a step back and explain concisely with as few words as possible. I say that because we don't have much to go on yet, but you are attempting to quickly build a debate.
I feel it definitely has its uses, some games are better solved mechanically. i don't think i've ever seen a TPR expose himself because of it. And i also don't find that the mafia gains much from it.
I'm not an inactive player although the first half of the day may suggest so, simply the host gave me a wrong password. although i won't ask him to confirm this since i believe its against the rules. I will say at the start of this game i thought Cage was joking about his deathpush , but the longer the game progresses the less certain i am.
However i think they are TvT or TvN and nothing more.
-vote S-FM Jiles Carballo
Three players still haven't talked. Hm.
Is this 1v1 happening today
If so lets make it interesting
-vote S-FM Lois Francklyn
I don't think I agree with this. The coroner idea made a lot of sense to me actually.
The coroner is one of our most powerful resources and I also think it makes sense to use those powers today before targets can be framed and before the coroner can potentially be killed.
To be clear; I also support the coroner using his/her special today x2.
The results will give us direction.
Actually, with a cooler head, I think Lois' stuff is too weird and too scummy to be scum... Pushing the "interesting" to the point of "confirmed scum" really sucks, and most people will acknowledge that, so I don't think he wants to pull a mislynch from it, because noone will be convinced by that and he knows it. His super obvious avoid-the-question game around Jiles and me also makes no sense if he wants to convince anyone. So, uh, the conclusion is that he's town with a weird strategy, because it would be too bad to be real as scum? Uh. I don't know anymore.
Quaaaack...
I support early use of the Geneticist/Coroner's powers for the previously stated reason of the Geneticist's possibility of dying. However, I believe his public role reveal ability should only be used on lynched players, not on nightkills: we want to know what the lynched players flipped, but we pretty much know what nightkills flip (almost always town). Nightkill flips can wait, but lynch flips can't.
