Gerry, as I'm sure you're aware we're lynching Imsohappy today. You said that they were probably mafia so you shouldn't have any complaints, we can lynch Dorzel tomorrow.

okay shrub at this point i'll at least concede that your argument is possible, however i'm not convinced that that's the case and definitely not convinced that we need to lynch Gerry "nOW RIGHT NOW NOW YOU HAVE TO DO IT NOW"


It's not possible, it's obvious. You still haven't outed a single reason why you townread Gerry. You have been buddied the out of. Vote him.

Shrub why did you claim pr?


p
Because it looked like Arcbell the serial killer was getting townread more than me and I wanted to get him lynched, similarly I do with Gerry. I did not want to get OYNCHED day one as 2 of the most obvious towns (MCFG and yourself) are completely incapable of actually reading Mafia correctly. I thought I had made myself obvious enough town that even you would correctly read me, so I retracted. Apparently that was not the case and I should have kept claiming so that people lynched Gerry.

Firstly, considering you said that you have bad reads earlier, you should be valuing this post

Minecraftfangirlftw says

well my tr for happy is mostly meta and stuff so im willing to look into lynching her and by a person i meant yoyo but i guess that was fine


I have just as much meta as you in terms of when she is actually trying and trust me there is absolutely no reason to meta townread her.


Over your own read, if you think Shrub is town.

Secondly, is your read based on forum mafia, or real time mafia?


my tr on shrub is meta + towny lines (the meta is from real time mafia)


Read the first point again, you didn't respond to it in a way that suggests that you properly understood it, and the second point highlights how your meta on imsohappy is invalid. It takes much more effort to play as scum in forum mafia. This game will not count towards a pie chart. Those are two reasons why your meta can be considered invalid.


Yoyo this post is useless. Like what are you trying to accomplish with this.

Of course meta is usable, just not as well as normal Mafia. E.g. DORZEL would have been lynched already if everyone didn't already know he is laid back and doesn't participate as both town and Mafia.

Shrub there's no way you're lynching Gerry so you voting him at this point is pretty much a vote to nl

Izzy if you actually townread Gerry for reasons other than he townreads you and "oh well he actually voted the Mafia day one and no one busses ever so he must be clear) I WOULD LIKE TO POINT OUT WRCBELL THE KILLER VOTED THE MARIA DAY ONE AS WELL IT DOESNT CLEAR ANYONE..

You have been buddied so hard it's not even funny

izzy says

half of that is an opinion, and i think if he fosed you for not voting someone who TURNED OUT TO BE MAF it is very unlikely that he's maf, bc then he'd be bussing his partner


I don't actually know how to argue with this.

Holy mother of fancy pants logic.

YES THIRD TURNED OUT TO BE MAF BUT THAT WAS KITERALLY LUCK IF WE HAD LYNCHED HIM, HE HAD A TORAL OF 4 line none of them alignment telling there is no way anyone could have reliable SCUMREAD him. Voting Gerry who happens to also be Mafia instead of third is not a SCUMTELL in any sense.

WHY THE WOULD HE NOT BUSS HIS AFK PARTNER BECAUSE IT MAKES EASILY LED PEOPLE LIKE YOU WHO DONT OOOK AT INTENT TOWNREAD HIM FOR FREE.

Actually the only people who I alignment called so far were Arcbell and ultra Aug.

I was right on both of them. Don't talk smack, you haven't had a correct read that you justified. And you SCUMREAD me, so your argument is invalid anyway.

What's your read on Shrub, Minecraftfangirlftw


you see the problem is that i tr both gerry and shrub for their own reasons ;-;


Mine, you tr Gerry because you are scared of voting him and him being town and being bad at you. Or because he is Gerry. Not because of what he is said I'm like 80% sure. Rethink it. Or actually think it.

izzy says

shrub shut up for the love of god you haven't given us any good reasons to lynch him other then "YOU'RE DUMB FOR NOT DOING IT AND WE HAVE TO OR ELSE" the incessant tunneling is getting really irritating


From the top of my head (I've said all of this already at some point)

1) he incredibly blatantly buddies you to get townread.

2) he has consistently been outing awful reads for the entire game

3) he has no real emotion or anything behind his posts that could be used to townread him. (Like yoyo)

4) he doesn't have towny intent behind his posts (like yoyo and mine) - like he doesn't seem like he is actually trying hard for town to win, he isn just outing really unhelpful and obviously awful reads.

5) the reasons behind his reads have been absolutely awful. He townread you for a null AF post, he SCUMREAD groundhogday and I for not voting an AFK who had had a total of 3'lines and just happened to be Mafia. Town with no information had absolutely no reason to vote third, as he hadn't scumtold.

6) i just had a vibe from the first day that he was not town.

I suggest you actually go back and read gerrys content (all town who are willing to actually try and read Mafia) it will become clear.

Also, yoyo townreads him so he must be Mafia since yoyo has the game backwards.


this looks like effort, a lot of effort also how does one type that quickly
