NY 165: A Large Normal (Game Over!)

[Bulbazak]

Don't be too complacent about bulba.

I don't mind caution, as long as it doesn't turn into a Burden of Proficiency case.

its a gut read based mostly on Macs replace out. i never pretended it was more than that, but the fact that bulba acts like i put together some huge case that he deftly refuted is flat out wrong. its a gut feeling and i never said otherwise.

All I've ever asked for is that you ISO both Mac and ourselves and give some analysis. You have refused to do so and are trying to dodge the issue by misrepping the entirety of our position. I don't think asking for actual analysis is too much, unless it interferes with you wanting to stay on the sidelines and only throw out crap reads.

I actually find the extreme pushes for individual reads RIGHT NOW NO EXCUSES to be kinda opportunistic. I'm mostly concerned about bulbafenrix doing this yesterday.

If you think that asking for actual gameplay analysis is scummy, this might not be your game. May I suggest Snakes and Ladders?

More importantly, why the fuck has everyone jumped on me? <_<

Probably because you're active lurking and only appear when someone is voting or suspecting you.

Ok reads regarding ProHawk's death:

Doc Holliday (Cephrir) is town
Broseidon is scum
Calcifer is probably town
Dramonic is slightly scummy

Explain these.

I was more interested in whether the AtE we saw d1 in regard to Serene was more in line with town Mastin or scum Mastin.

I never claim until L-1, regardless of my role. If the wagon would have died down before that point, scum would have been really paranoid about my role. I won't lie about my role when town, but that doesn't mean that I won't use that unknown to my advantage.

Eddie and I knew it was pretty much over after our lynch. Town consistently refused to listen, and as Cephrir said, the game was essentially a popularity contest.

I have a story to tell about this game, but I can't atm. Stay tuned.

Town consistently refused to listen

I'd argue they listed to you quite well after your death.

Your issue was making a townblock of 3/5ths scum.

If BRO gets lynched, there's something seriously wrong with this town. The sad part is that there are people who are pushing for his lynch.

BRO

, Orcinus, Rift,

Crabd

. There's your core town that can break this game wide open if they are smart about it.

-Bulba

True. I'm still working on how to read you and Ffery.

Okay, now that NY 164 has finally ended, I can reveal what was fully going on. Cephrir and I were scum in that game, so I actually recognized immediately that his play didn't necessarily make him town. However, I couldn't say anything, lest I compromise the other game. And when I said that he was daring town to come after him? Yeah, again that was mostly me. Cephrir and I were pretty much playing multi-game mental chess, where we were both trying to outwit the other, yet we couldn't be open about it. And I'll admit, Cephrir used it to his advantage, knowing that I had information that would truly condemn him as scum, yet I could never fully disclose it, or I would disqualify myself from both games and would likely be banned. It was a complicated mind game, and I both hated it and loved it at the same time, simply because while frustrating, it was also invigorating to go against such an opponent. Well played Cephrir.

If anybody ever says they don't believe scum can play on that level, I'm pointing them to this game.
