[FM] Short Fuse IV - Game Over - Town wins

[Solic]

@Wazza

Replaced out.

Yeah, you didn’t have to give me the one where you had two spammy posts.

Were you converted or starting Cult in HoB?

[Solic]

What does ATP mean?

[Wazza]

Starting Cult I think.

I think I started Cult with Maxwell.

[Alice]

At this point. The silence was awkward considering he usually chats a lot and tries to townlead.

His reads as scum are pretty artificial from seeing his play in SFoL51, so I’ll be on a look out for that.

[Arete]

No, you were starting Cult with me. Maxwell was the N1 convert.

[Wazza]

Ah yeah, that’s what it was, sorry.

[Wazza]

Can I detonate Marshal now btw?

[Marshal]

I would highly not reccomend

[Wazza]

Ohhh asking if I can detonate him brought him back. Cool.

[Marshal]

the reply notification brought me back

[Wazza]

You’re welcome.

Give me 5 good reasons why I shouldn’t detonate you. Failure to do so will equal immediate explosion.

[Alice]

@Arete

@SirDerpsAlot if you had to detonate someone right now, but you could choose who it was, who would it be? if you could make someone detonation immune other than yourself, who would it be?

Don’t like that there wasn’t much follow-up on this question, though. Arete/Derp has a potential of being an SvS here from how lightly Arete was pushing him without coming to any conclusions.

@Arete

Overall SirDerps is a slight scumread of mine, but I’m holding off on detonating him because (a) it’s still really early, and randomly detonating people for weak reasons is how we lose, (b) he’s still pretty new, and even if I’ve seen stronger content from him before I’m inclined to be charitable.

This post also feels way too over-explaining as well since nobody’s detonating this early.

@DatBird

@Arete

Because I’m town, and detonating me would bring the Mafia closer to victory. I realize that ‘I’m town’ is not proof of being town, but it bears mentioning.

boring Im town crap that everyone gives

@Arete

Because even if you temporarily operate under the assumption that I’m scum, my scum play typically provides a wealth of associative reads if you actually bother to look for them (see SFoL 51 before the redcheck got outed – hardly anyone bothered to use them, but they were there). If I were scum, detonating me now would make it harder to find my scumbuddies later.

Idk if town Arete would say this

@Arete

Because if I’m left alive, I’ll have the chance to actually analyze the game/do Isos/etc., all of which are things that should help figure out who the scum are.

this is like the best point out of the three, but isos arent even really needed when its 400 posts

@Arete

It’s less than five hundred words, Solic, it’s not a wallpost (and thus, I’m not locktown yet).

(Iso of SirDerps incoming, chosen because I hold his detonator and thus he’s one of the most important people FMPOV for alignment-figuring-out purposes.)

Wallpostss = town joke. boring, plus an iso of derps and still theeres less than 400 posts its not really nessecary but i guess, kinda just feels like not needed

@Arete

I was going to ask for your thoughts on Alice while I wrote my wallpost but it looks like she hasn’t really posted yet.

Yeah his thoughts on someone who hasntt posted yet before this post, Solics gonna have much to talk about

Overall just like fluff in the wallposts and Im town things and promising isos that arent even like needed this early. Like a lot of it is just like why? Oh wait more content

@Arete

@Solic if you could detonate anyone right now, and not doing so weren’t an option, who would it be and why?

a question, that is pretty much asking who u scumread.

@Arete

If you could make someone other than yourself permanently detonation immune, who would it be and why?

I do genuinlly like this question even though it boils down to whos ur biggest TR. But at least its different from other questions asked so far.

Idk I would say slight scumread, they havent impressed me much but not a lot of people have either.

I’m having a stupid-ass tinfoil that the scumteam is Derp/Arete/Dat rn and they decided to pick 2 Maf/1 Town detonator. Not liking how they’ve been hedging on each others’ ISOs.

[Wazza]

I feel SvS would be done by them having a detonator of one of the other and then it plays out like that.

Perhaps ask Arete to detonate SirDerps and see where that gets us, that’s if you are very keen on it being SvS (That’s how I caught Alice and Ici on the first game I believe it was)

[Marshal]

1 - It is too early. Give it some time. an implusle det like this will put town in a shit postition

2 - I can, when focused, provide valuable ISO and Scumreading skiills

3 - ignoring all else, you are 8/3 likely to hit town than scum. You better be fucking sure that i’m scum beforeyou do this.

4 - You will look very bad + suspicios when I flip town

5 - Although I am just being argumentative, I provide a pretty contrasting veiwpoint to anyone else and I might be the best thing preventing a death tunnel or two.

[Alice]

I never played scum on a Short Fuse, that was probs Marg/Ici.

[Marshal]

If you arent convinced, hit that button for quick, immediate regret

[Wazza]

@Marshal

1 - It is too early. Give it some time. an implusle det like this will put town in a shit postition

Invalid Point.

@Marshal

2 - I can, when focused, provide valuable ISO and Scumreading skiills

All I’ve seen are meme posts from you all game, ain’t looking so good for you.

@Marshal

3 - ignoring all else, you are 8/3 likely to hit town than scum. You better be fucking sure that i’m scum beforeyou do this.

I AM VERY sure right now based on these posts of yours.

@Marshal

4 - You will look very bad + suspicios when I flip town

That’s in your opinion, but that would only happen if the explosion was completely in the random.

@Marshal

5 - Although I am just being argumentative, I provide a pretty contrasting veiwpoint to anyone else and I might be the best thing preventing a death tunnel or two.

You just used the same point as the 2nd, and I say the 2nd point is invalid to use as a reason.

All these points are invalid, try again.

[Arete]

@Wazza

Perhaps ask Arete to detonate SirDerps and see where that gets us, that’s if you are very keen on it being SvS

If everyone else thinks it’s best for me to detonate him I’m perfectly willing to do it, I just think it’s best to be cautious right now.

[Marshal]

you know what? No.

Those are good points.

Take a breather, realize what i provide, realize what you risk Vs what you reward.
