You know, it's weird that the one player who flipped sides and refused to vote me come EoD after I used the rewind power is dead today.
Is it possible that nin was vig killed and malus was the scum kill? Or is the first kill posted always the scum kill?

*truffleshuffle*
On multi kill nights, the order the deaths are posted doesn't usually mean anything.
I only think it's relevant because if scum killed malus, and I'm right about melon, it'll be easier to convince people to vote for me when both melon and kits are arguing to vote me with only myself defending myself. if malus was still alive, he'd be arguing against them too and it'd be more difficult to sway town towards me.
To this vote(which you are using trying to pressure me into saying why think mao is justified in what he has done today) I respond to you with this:
I thought you just responded with a dismissive *truffleshuffle*. Which one do I pick from? Is this a choose your own adventure game?
Trying to get you to explain your conclusions isn't "dumb town". That's literally how you play mafia. Are you getting mad at me because I'm... Asking questions? Engaging with other players? What do you find so upsetting?
I'm pretty sure "stop asking questions" "stop getting mad at me for not answering your questions" is very anti-town play though
When all your questions are one dimensional, I can see why people would not want to answer them.
Getting people to explain their logic behind their claims and actions is how you poke holes in motives and find scum.
Where do you see anger?
Wait.......were you angry when you posted that dumb town thing!?!?! 😂😂😂😂
I responded with that(your quote) because you were acting so smart when you posted it, but can't see why today mao's actions make sense.
Also the truffle isn't dismissive 😂
Right up until you disagree with a player's logic and use that disagreement as the backbone behind why there's holes in motives.
Then you're tunneling.
There's "Disagreeing with a player's logic" and "Finding a point where that logic no longer makes sense".
why did i even come back to mafia if y'all mock me for taking very simple and basic steps to engage in the game
Idk what to tell you if you are getting offended by the truffle. I've been doing that for like.......a long time.
I've told you it's not dismissive(I wasn't joking), if you don't believe me that's on you.
Just like when I stated I do the shrug, it's not me being dismissive.
Also, you just called me a dumb townie.
*shrug*
You're right. I'll back off. Trying to drag two people into playing a game when they seem to not care less probably isn't wise.
What are you going on about?
Like the only thing I see that may have came off as a slight is this.
That wasn't meant to be a shot. I meant it isn't worth explaining at all to anyone because it wouldn't help town.
Excuse me, I've posted multiple times now why I would lunch melon.
You're the one not engaging with anything unless it relates to me. I've been extremely involved in this game, look how many posts I have across all phases. Just because I'm not agreeing with you on why town should vote for me is not indicative of me not caring about the game. Sheesh.
If only someone had brought up the possibility that maybe maybe Maol was lying to us about his power. Oh... wait.
Admitting this helps town how at this stage? Again sus.
Wouldn't she be more likely to NK him in this scenario? I don't understand what you mean here.
Now you are really overstating things. Situation wasn't that dire for me.
Nothing you've said adds up. And wasting a power like that to bait scum is a laughable plan.
Vote: Maolfunction
We can Thunderdome.
Kits, take a moment to regroup. No game is worth it <3.
"Multiple" posts. Okay.
Involved doesn't mean you've had town's best interests in mind. And I hardly count the number of posts as much of anything. Most have been dedicated to stepping up things with no follow through.

Oh also, anyone want some drugs?
Malus gave me some ladt night, which was pretty exciting until i saw how thry dont do anything.
The hell kinda drug dealer sells dud drugs.
A Townie one i guess but still. Dissapointing.

Actually regardless of the answer to thst question (the maol one, not the drugs one) i think im cautiously okay with Maols description of his actions.
The rewind seems like a very shakey power to use offensively as town, to try to use it to save town before eod isnt exactly dependable since it would require Maol to be cartain about who he is saving, and even then its still a mixed bag on who actually gets lynched. Especially if the eod restriction is true, but if he has only just revealed this now that tidbit will makes things more suspect.
Given that issue, trying to bait out a NK makes some sense, it is a power that could give scum some pause and there isnt a great wealth of prime targets right now, like who the hell expected nin or malys to be killed tonight?
Coming clean today also makes sense as tge lilelyhood of being asked to prove the powers limitlessness would likely mount, only making himself seem more suspect, outweighing the worth of trying to bait a NK that scum have already shown a lack of interest in.
Now i think this all makes sense, but it also certainly isnt imposdible that this is scum Maol just trying to use this role in a way that he hopes will appear like a townie way to use it, as pretty much all of what i said about the rewind being difficult to use offensivly applys to it in scums hands as well.

In other news may i say that im proud of myself that i finally restrained myself from scum reading both nin and dubs for the usual wierdness in thier play and was in fact right to do so.
To bad it took making those mistakes many, many times.

Oh another thing.
While im finding myself quite convinced by most of the push againsy FB, was there some preamble on this subject yesterday that i just missed?
It feels like things have gone from 0 to 100 like instantly with the start of this day phase and its kinda throwing me off.

I did not. I should have mentioned it in my first post today, I forgot to include it. It's a small detail in my role PM, it just slipped my mind with everything else I wanted to post.
I didn't want to give mafia more details about it, or its limitations since I was trying to bait the NK.
Thats more or less what i was expecting but nice to hear it from you first.
And since not much else is happening right now i might as well go through the motions.
Wierd of you to try act like this is some victory for you specifically.
Like i wasnt there or day end but things looked like they could easily go to you during my catching up.
One or two if these i might have been able to understand but all of this in succession just reeks of disingenuous bullshit.
Yeah im definitely still down for lynching melon.
Literally noone took his claim at face value, like im his buggest proponent right now and even i figured he was likely lying.
Wierd of you to try act like this is some victory for you specifically.
It removes the very likely possibility that he is expected to use his power again and cant leading to his myslynch. Its pretty simple.
Wernt you like 1 vote away from being the lynch yesterday?
Like i wasnt there or day end but things looked like they could easily go to you during my catching up.
This is demonstrably true, i dont see how you can reasonably try to paint this as a lie.
And again, this is just rediculous, maol has very obviously been one of the most involved players in this game and has followed up damn near everything he has started constantly, i know because plenty of it was upon my own questioning.
One or two if these i might have been able to understand but all of this in succession just reeks of disingenuous bullshit.

You really want me to participate, Stan?
Uh, Fire literally did.
And I had people left and right telling me that a Max claim equaled town ... because reasons.
So yes, it does specifically relate to me. Half of the reason malus voted for me was because I dared to doubt the claim. And I still do because it keeps making less and less sense.
It's all too convenient. And not something he should've, as a town player, given up to scum for free. He did all of that just throw away a power and hope scum NK him? Really? That was the plan?
Who said lie? That's not a word I used. It's subjective. I'm not going to count the same weak argument repeated about a perfect scum play and annoyance that I question him as a wealth of material on my guilt.
Speaking of, you Stanley, haven't really given a strong reason to vote for me. You pretty much just latched yourself on what was hot at the moment and went to bed.
You broke it down as those my disinterest and lack of enthusiasm were enough for a (weak) vote. But that's not scum hunting. You still aren't now. You're down to vote for me (again) because I doubt with the sincerity of my number #1 scum and I question his motives.
Mmmhmm.
No.
His involved has been shallow at best and if you actually engage with him it's either deflection or circular talking. He has promised to be involved, he has promised to explain things but has consistently push back against or distanced himself from the subject at hand. He doesn't follow up tunneling you, doesn't provide reactions or anything to his first gambit despite prodding. Is disinterested in the bomb talk and doesn't feel his own possible lynch is worth discussing. Has Kits as one his strongest town but can't back up why he believes it. Stringing along this clain business. Has completely ignored my posts despite being here. And I could go on ...
Maol is doing whatever suits him to survive but the second its inconvenient or isn't part of his master plan he hasn't the time or interest for it. I'm not exactly sure where you're getting this team spirit from him because he's certainly not on my (town) team but maybe he's on yours.
This whole sudden defense is far too dramatic even for your (normal) hyperbolic rants.
But whatever. It's all bullshit, right?

But I wasn't. When B-Dubs brought it up as a possibility, I engaged with him on the subject and thought the idea was credible.
Nobody responded to that idea, so I didn't press it. I've responded to every issue that has been brought up in this game, I've made statements on the miller claim, rac's claim, and kits claim. Some of those statements may have been we table the discussion for now, because at this point in the game its very difficult what to do with rac's role or kits claim of there being a snitch. If town took the time to talk about all of those things, it leaves us less time to discuss who town should actually lunch that day which benefits mafia.
All of my focus during day phases has been on viable lunch targets. Whether it was Stan or you, my whole purpose in conversations has been to find someone to lunch and stick with it. Any other conversation, whether it be my motives for doing things, or how to deal with rac's claim isn't gonna help town find a lunch target today, so that's why I push to drop them or make statements that they're not worth the time to investigate because my priority is on the higher priorities.
When those things become more pressing, then I'd say we can talk about them in more detail. We're not at that point yet because frankly you're still alive trying to spread some shady ideas about what's best for town.
gonna be another day where mao is dominating the discussion huh
Maolfunction melonrabbit Kitsunelaine
can we make this an actual productive day and go after something else, oh i know fireblend

Yes. This is actually exactly wanted.
And it looks like its actually happening.
Its a christmas miracle.
Alright everyone but FB, tho he gas plenty of problems of his own.
But that malus part is interesting tho, ill look back for it when i get home, im blacking on it now but that put your response in a very differant light.
Yes?
I dont see how its that terrible a strategy, its no slam dunk but his ability is hardly one that can be used for any certain gains, so whats hes attempted here sounds reasonable.
I genuine fail to see how its so improbable.
Okay see this fits better. Maybe next time actually say these things rather than just dropping coy implications, it comes off far less underhanded.
Well yeah, you say the first part like its some gotcha but i think i made it clear enough at the time. Having come to tonwiery conclusions on the other scummuer targets i had to look elsewhere and you were a pretty obvious choice.
I tried to scum hunt you and you had far to little material to actually hunt on, and zero of it gave me any reason to town read you. Yeah it wasnt a vote made with any certainty at your scummyness, but more to pressure you in that hopes that you woulf actually give us something worth reading into, And if you were lynched from it i really wouldnt have minded.
As for now? Im going through your arguments, finding a lot i disagree with, reasoning that they are likely being made for scummy purposes, and calling you on it to argue it. Same as iv been doing a lot of this game.
I dont know what scum hunting is to you but this is it for me, its what im doing literally right now.
I really dont think this is very dramatic for me, its hardly even a 3/10. Also its not so much a defense of maol as it is an attack on you.
As for the actual point, maybe it us just subjective but that not my reading of him, he doesnt engage a lot with theories he disagrees with but he has argued plenty on his own ideas and stances.
Its come off to me more as a differing playstyle than some calculated catch and release.
Like you say there "if you actually engage with him" but iv done that plenty and its really feels to me like he just genuinely has no patience for the udea he considers wrong.
Now i definitely think its a pretty poor way to play, but not that it comes grom scummy intent.
Its sure smelt that way, it really just felt like more sniping from the sidelines as i calked it yesterday. But now that your actually here playing, well it helps.
Imagine the goonies gif every time you see it.
I'm on mobile 90% of the time. It's easier for me to post that instead of the gif every time.
