| Lopen 06/24/19 12:44:20 PM #27 | Zidane can be okay if you don't care about natural feeling character development. I feel like he sorta just gets forced through character arcs and if you just take it at face value it works, but it ends up hurting the character for me. Probably a victim of bad writing more than the concept inherently being bad-- if they tried to do less with him he'd be a lot better. Early game Zidane is fine and he progressively gets worse until the awful You're Not Alone scene which really encapsulates everything wrong with the character. Steiner on the other hand is just obnoxious comic relief throughout the game really. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

| Lopen 06/24/19 12:31:06 AM #360 | Also, while I didn't watch the show, here's why Seth Rollins and Becky don't work as a power couple on paper Their relationship did not develop on screen and they're both weekly on screen competitors With HHH and Steph they had on screen storylines. With Cena/Nikki and Miz/Maryse the women of those pairings were offscreen for a good while before they were an on screen thing. Also they weren't featured in big stuff right off, and Cena/Nikki had total divas. Becky/Rollins is like, only if you're following Twitter stuff does this not feel like a contradiction to what the on screen shows. Which pulls back to WWE overdoing social media integration in general. Like if they were an item on the show in context of the show I'm kinda just like "when did this happen?" --- No problem!

Not enough that it's autolynch but yeah, if the case on them was solid, no need to back off. The stronger the claimed power, the more suspicious you should be.

| Lopen 06/23/19 12:13:23 PM #151 | Leaving scum masquerading as power alive is damaging. When you weigh everything - Is watcher likely to be in a setup at all - Would watcher have likely been the guy who is completely buried of all people - Would a watch on Chris having only one visit make much sense considering who died last night The claim of watcher should have very little weight. Sucking for town to lynch power only means so much when he's like 1% telling the truth. You just go with it. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

| Lopen 06/23/19 12:05:06 PM #144 | On dowolf you helped form the obviously scummy end of day 1 wagon on him. You also did it by suggesting, 'yes, let's vote him' off of not much first. This to me is suspicious. Seems like something scum would do. On red, your positioning in the lynch was such that the writing was on the wall that he was going to be pushed hard today, and you got off him far too readily (while at the same time suggesting scum watcher which is not intuitive to me and seems as though you were trying to hedge your bets for when he eventually died "see guys I still suspected him!"). These seem like ways I'd expect scummates to approach lynches involving red. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

| Lopen 06/23/19 2:36:01 AM #379 | If you're already dead nothing is suicidal. Red claimed the exact thing he needed to to dig himself out of the grave, only to be kicked back in. The sheer convenience in the idea that he would be a watcher of all things, with no information to boot, it's absurd. Btw I encourage some pressing of Lea, Ben, Hb, and Tom tomorrow. No doubt in my mind there were some scum on Red, and the ones that just blindly took his claim immediately are the ones I find more likely to be scum Lea and Ben in particular are fishy as they were on the Dowolf chaos train as well, and they both mentioned scum watcher which is... a weird thing to me. Like, you're still keeping open the possibility that he's scum so you look better when he eventually flips. Lea and Ben also jumped to MZero, which, if one or both of them are scum makes MZero look a lot better. Tom seemed a bit overzealous to chastise SBell for fishing, too, which is kinda suspicious. Hb is probably the one I suspect least of the unvoters at this point, because he sorta just did it. Asked about poisoner. Normal reaction to me. Course the funny thing is you can't force claims from any of them because they've already needed to claim. Cept Tom. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

Better to obfuscate the exact nature to prevent scum from having more hints as to how to protect their fake claims.

You kinda just ignored the lynch existed. I'm saying you positioned him as one, not that you ever needed to use it. For example if someone had asked if you suspected red and the lynch was red vs I dunno, me, it would be an easy excuse to lynch me instead. I think you're being a bit (intentionally?) daft if you think I'm literally talking about votes here. It's about motivations. Obviously I can see from vote records where your vote was and wasn't (when I actually look at them) but I'm just saying your progression of suspicion on the two doesn't come off as natural to me.

I don't think Tom and I treat each other significantly differently in AIM and board. It's not like Tom and I have played no games on the board together by the way. The majority of our history is AIM sure. But we've played probably 8 or 9 games together on the board? He's been in literally every game I've played here except the one I played that he hosted. I think you can treat each other the same and have different voting habits in AIM mafia vs board mafia, was more my point. I feel like in AIM mafia there's no such thing as a vote without pressure. I would say what Tom has done to you this game is basically that. So it could be less about voting and more about pressure. Am I right? Maybe, maybe not.

| Lopen 06/23/19 12:03:38 AM #291 | My confidence levels change based on arguments and evidence, generally. Then again I don't really do gut reads to begin with so I don't know how that would generally progress. Any sort of claim of gut read would just be a 'read' where I'm fishing for reactions more than anything. On the other hand Red was a gut read too and he was supposedly moved by arguments and evidence, so yeah I don't really know how to take it. Maintaining a claim of suspicion on Pez feels more like you're mindlessly tunneling at this point, frankly, because you haven't really built on it or pushed it at any point. Heck you don't even have a vote on him today! Let me put it another way-- do you really still think Pez is scum? --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

I think he's too heavily entwined with my scum suspects to really fit in that team right now. Also his posts have generally seemed okay.

But this is how we work and it's been consistent over hundreds of games. His interactions with red are the more suspicious ones and I think you're just collateral damage, and he hasn't made enough of a real push on you for me to think it's "misdirection." I mean, I guess your argument is that he voted you at all should "clear" him (or damn you) but that's not good enough for me to rely on you're correct. Particularly because the majority of your sample size is AIM mafia and the voting dynamic just works differently there.
