That's cool and all, but...why would you do that? Why would you be so concerned and focused on one person voting for you?
(shrug) I always try to respond to attacks against me. I just think that's a more pro-town way to act then ignoring attacks against you is. Only reason I didn't respond to his initial vote was because I was too focued with other issues, like reborn.
And, again, I found it concerning he seemed to be using his "Yos is scum" thing to look like he was participating while not actually commenting on anything else, so I wanted him to explain it more.
It's not a BS meta. He simply said, "hey, yos is scum, follow me." Nobody was going to take him seriously because he didn't have any content, you knew that. Why should anyone take it seriously?
..I don't know, that's why I'm voting for you.
I didn't take it as a serious threat to me or anything (in fact, I think the first response I made to it made it pretty clear I didn't consider his unexplained vote a real threat). I did want him to explain his vote, and was willing to risking brining more attention to his attack against me and willing to therefore put myself into greater danger in order to get a read on him at that point.
And yeah, overdefensive is a BS meta, because everyone should always defend themselves; if someone's attacking you, even if it's just one person and even if it's a minor, unexplained FOS or whatever, I think you should always try to respond to it if you're pro-town; it's the best way to both clear up any misunderstandings, to shoot down any flawed logic a person might be using, and to get a read on the other person based on how he makes his case on you.
PS: I always always always ignore votes on me whenever I'm not being bandwagoned. I simply don't care about it. I have more important things to do than defend myself from one pointless vote.
(shrug) That's great. I almost never ignore votes on me.
That's exactly what you'd say as mafia, that's why.
It might be. It's also exactally what I would say as town.
If someone is attacking me when I'm town, I'm always going to try to figure out why they've come to the incorrect conclusion that I'm scum, and then point out the holes in their logic to them and to the rest of the town. In the process I can also often get a good idea of if the person attacking me is town or scum. Why would I ever NOT want to do that?
I want us to win just for Yos' inevitable rant alone. -CrashTextDummie
It seems that once you leave The Road to Rome, small jokes like that are out? I'll admit that I probably shouldn't have bolded the FoS, but it was still meant to be taken as a joke.
