Large Normal 207: Theatre Mafia

[James Brafin]

For #2, AoR is saying the same thing over and over until everyone begins to think it is true. It's a pretty pungent scumtell.

Dafuck? Why can't town do it to get votes?

Because it means that you don't really have any reason to vote for him. You're just saying the same thing over and over to get folks to jump on your wagon. That's anti-town AT LEAST, if not scummy.

[James Brafin]

James, read the thread. Just glance thorugh it. GET THE OVERVIEW. Don't get involved in this tit-for-tat with Mulch.
I wasn't accusing you of being scum, i was saying you are wrong about Mulch.

Okay. Just making sure, since I've tried to be respectful and use logic this game.

Who said I don't have a reason? Nobody asked me except now

[Mulch]

Oh, I see your point now. AtE is scummy because it appeals to emotional impulse, rather than logic.

Why is that bad?

Well, I'd like to see it.

[Boonskiies]

I’m still pretty accurate with my Day 1 reads, specifically my town reads.

[James Brafin]

Oh, I see your point now. AtE is scummy because it appeals to emotional impulse, rather than logic.

Why is that bad?

Because in doing so, you're basically appealing to our fear of the Mafia so you can get town lynched. THAT's the danger of AtE; the idea that someone can hesitate into voting the wrong guy and we get a bad kill.

[mozamis]

One good thing that has come out of this is that Brafin is proably town. If he is scum then *insert obligatory Moz rant about scum blending in etc*

[James Brafin]

And then a Mafia walks away scot free.

Why can't town use AtE to get a scumread lynched?


Also when did I use AtE lol. Especially when did I use a "fear of the mafia" lmfao

Why did you scumread me for it before even asking me for a reason? curious

[Not Known 15]

Is 879 true or false, NK15?

To the first point:I think it is something you'd see slightly more often from scum. But only slightly, that is.
You never being nightkilled is not a indication of good play, and even if it is true it is not a town tell; also you also suggest that Boon lives that long.
And the last thing is mainly based on

bribery

. Asking for votes is generally ok. But trying to push someone who just threw a wrench into your wagon efforts close to deadline on the wagon based on bribery and downplaying the ability of the person who didn't like your wagon...

That

is bad.

[Mulch]

Why is bribery bad

They could, theoretically. But WHY would a townie ever do that? It's a very scummy tell, and so puts the player at risk.
And your AtE is part of your AoR;

Ok everyone let's stop this idiotic theory talk and vote Jordan

You've just pushed to get Jordan voted, hoping that people will get scared of letting who you think is scum walk free.
Also, appreciated the lol and the lmfao. Those are also common tools (like an OMGUS) that Mafia will use when they are on the backpedal.

[Mulch]

I'm trying to get my scumreads lynched. You 2 are inexperienced and don't unerstand that town can use all tactics available to get their SCUMREADS lynched. Aggresive play is not only scum lol

[Mulch]

But WHY would a townie ever do that?

To get their scumreads lynched?


Also, lol and lmao are meta tells, not scumtells.

And yes, I want people to be afraid of my scumreads. What's wrong with that?

Because you don't look like you have one, you're just AoRing. But if you have one, by all means, let's see it.

[Mulch]

Why would I push someone without a reason as scum?

[James Brafin]

But WHY would a townie ever do that?

To get their scumreads lynched?

Because that's EXACTLY what a mafia would do. They breed fear among many to cause dissent and mislynch.

[James Brafin]

Why would I push someone without a reason as scum?

I don't know. But I still don't see any proof.

[Mulch]

Why would I push someone without a reason as scum?

I don't know. But I still don't see any proof.

If you don't see any scum motiviation how is it scummy lol


Also, how the fuck am I supposed to give proof?

[Mulch]

Because that's EXACTLY what a mafia would do. They breed fear among many to cause dissent and mislynch.

Why woulden't a town do it?

[mozamis]

MOZ, BOON, MULCH, DUNKER, MASSIVE, NOTKNOW, BRAFFIN PROB TOWN.

Acid and Ras pos. town

Scum in: Fykus, Assembles, Xnand, Carc, Pisskop, Kamin,Texcat, Unabom, Wavemode

That may not look great, but assuming Acid and ras are town, that's prob. 4 scum out of 9, almost 50/50 chance of hitting scum, which Day 1 is pretty good.

[James Brafin]

I don't know. But I still don't see any proof.

If you don't see any scum motiviation how is it scummy lol


Also, how the fuck am I supposed to give proof?

Lack of proof = no reason for scumread.
No reason for scumread = pressure test or scum mislynch
You're holding awfully hard for a pressure test.

And proof would be those two scummy psots you told me about, for example, or those questions you supposedly asked him.

[James Brafin]

Because that's EXACTLY what a mafia would do. They breed fear among many to cause dissent and mislynch.

Why woulden't a town do it?

Breed fear among town? Because that's so anti-town that's not even funny. Making factions is never a good townie idea. They shouldn't need to.
