ToS Mafia - Day 8 - (3/19) [Town wins!]

anyways now that I’ve explained why your entire philosophy is wrong I can explain why this is wolfy

Scum basically knows that I’m flipping town (technically from a scum perspective they don’t know that for absolute certain because they don’t know whether I’m town, or Witch/SK/Arso but they’re most likely assuming town)

this means that especially if they’re inexperienced they’ll be worried that pushing me is going to “look bad” or something in light of my flip

I think that’s the perspective demonstrated in these quotes

he’s not willing to actually call me a wolf, because he knows I’m not, and he’s worried that if he actually calls me a wolf he’ll look suspicious when I’m not

basically, he’s preemptively making excuses for a world in which I flip town

and that’s wolfy as heck

the second one is a little different because he’s saying that he “firmly believes” he’s correct

except … he clearly doesn’t

because he starts that with “although I may be horribly wrong here”

this doesn’t make sense from a town perspective, townies don’t actually feel the need to start every read with “but I could be totally wrong and they could also be town” because when you actually believe someone is scum you don’t feel the need to add that sort of qualifier every other sentence

Sure

but if you don’t try to clear anyone then you end up with no cleared townies

Hello have you been paying attention to my TED talk

My entire argument was “let’s not make hasty judgements d1,” which I am following myself. I think you’re a scumlean, but I am hesitant to put you as a scumread yet becase it is day 1

See the trend?

Cool so lets start

Arete = Scum

I vaguely remember a game where I think you pushed me for this exact reason and both of us ended up as town… see CD FM1

Also I have a really stupid read on this sentence that I’m pretty sure is correct

If you read the sentence, it’s not grammatically sound – not in the sense that, like, it’s missing a capital letter, or that it doesn’t end with a period, or that it’s missing an apostrophe, or anything, but in the sense that the flow of the sentence just doesn’t work – the “although” doesn’t fit with the “but”

this is often scum-indicative because it usually indicates a post that was edited mid-composition, which more often comes from scum

my gut is telling me arete is town for the sole fact that they’re playing exactly how i’d play in the “i’m probably going to die today” scenario as town (see mafia academy, where i was redchecked as town and wrote a wallpost in my first FM game ever which amounted to nothing because neutral fruit vendor)

while i’m pretty sure scum arete is capable of doing this exact thing, in a setup with no day flip altering (right???) it doesn’t make too much sense in my eyes

/vote Darth_tabor

Voted Arete and then backtracked his vote (or is that a her?)

with that said i don’t think scum arete just flops over and lets themselves die

if i were a nerd i’d look at aretes past games and see how they act in this position

Um as your resident grammar police can you explain to me how this sentence doesn’t make grammatical sense

“Although” and “but” can definitely go together

“her” would be slightly more correct, I think

Ok noted

@Jane you got new votes

i think frost was referring to you, actually

arete goes by they/them :eyes:

No? :eyes:

noted.

But frost was talking about tabor

okay ignore me i blame the fact that it’s 2:30 am :eyes: i thought you were darth

you are cheese

brain please catch up

Oh I see, clonedcheese is mimicking

Arete is a they

Darth is a she

Frost is IIRC a he

Cheese is a he I think

kat is kat

What

I’ve said “noted” like a million times in my life

I can’t off the top of my head name the specific grammatical error but I can tell you that it sounds ungrammatical in my head and separately that if my ACT score is any indication my sense of what sounds ungrammatical is really good

Especially saying after me?
Wonderful news.

regardless of what you think my alignment is saying that someone is scum is not how you clear townies
