Why did you vote for me instead of Gfishfunk when he was your second most suspected person and then you voted Gfishfunk after I, your most suspected person, voted for him?

I'm not scum of any flavor. You're completely off base.
I thought I had a way to temporarily re-power you. I was wrong. Less able to prove my civness now.
I could try to counter each of your arguments, but my gut tells me it won't matter. I don't have anything really useful, other than my gut says silver, adam and TSP are shady.
No. No bullshit. I don't care about your gut.
How were you going to re-power Fred?

Does it seem odd that Cerberus hit Dom to anyone else but me?
The first thing that pops into my head is Jack. While just about everyone is suspicious of him, no one really got under his skin except Dom. I can see 2 scenarios.
1) Jack had his Cerberus pals hit Dom. This is not a particularly likely scenario, but it's possible.
2) Cerberus hit Dom hoping to push the above theory today hoping that the lynch of JoH sticks.
Either way Dom is dangerous to scum and I'm sure that's why they hit him.
How does mafia know Dom is dangerous?
You are bad.
They know Dom is dangerous because he is obviously a good player. Kinda like cbob was dangerous. In addition Dom is especially dangerous to Jack's faction.
No, I'm not bad. But you are an asshole.
Epignosis wrote:Honestly, Realms people, I think the over-reliance on role checks and role reveals and role this and role that is telling on you.
You're the only one who has brought anything like this up this phase. Furthermore, this very criticism has been brought by Realms people in this thread. I would say, while the Realms may rely to heavily on role reveals and info dumps, the Syndicate people (you especially) seem to reject it out of hand.
I'm going to bed, so I'm done with this conversation for a few hours, but you won't have to worry about some of us Realms people being back. After this game, I'm not likely to come back to the Syndicate. While most people have been welcoming, and we've had some playstyle friction, your open hostility and outright rudeness to the people from my site is just offensive. Frankly, it's one of the reasons I hoped you were lynched yesterday, just because my enjoyment of the game would increase with you gone. Instead I voted for game scum instead of you.
First, I never called anyone an "asshole," like you have to me twice now.
Second, I can mock the civilians all I want. It's my role. "Do you feel the fears swell inside that filthy bag of meat? What is like to be afraid? Why do you cling to such a pathetic existence? If you could only feel a spark of my glory. I despise my creations, for they have forced me to rely on a speck such as you." See?
Third, you claim you wanted me out because your enjoyment would increase with me gone. Yet you voted for me second before I had even begun to respond to gfishfunk's bullshit role block case against me. So what did I do or say before your vote that made you want me gone? When I said I didn't give a shit about your puny pressure votes, I wasn't being rude or joking or criticizing how anybody plays- I
meant it. I was being truthful. "Filthy meatsacks!" Like I said, I knew what I was doing all along.
Fourth, my comment about relying on role claims and the like was not an insult, but rather an accusation and a playful acknowledgement of irony: When I was accused of being bad, I predicted there and then that role claiming would not advance the civilians due to all the available roles left to claim (and I of course knew I had a fake one to claim anyway, so I extrapolated that mafia would have fake ones as well). gfishfunk made this hostile advancement on me by first lying about a role block (golly, that sure isn't a very nice thing to do- lying about a role block to get a person lynched and removed from the game! But
he's not an asshole...) and then led you and others from your site to get me lynched. The massive irony was that a role claim
did result in a mafia lynch, but it was because the fake claim used was inconsistent to the civilian optimal use of that role. I wonder, therefore, who else may be caught in this or a similar trap. Again, irony, not insult.
Finally, I don't disrespect you Realms folk at all. On the contrary. For example: Lying about a role block in an open setup to get me lynched on Day 2? I normally keep this sort of commentary to myself until after everything is done, but I don't mind saying it now: I love those brass balls. I have immense respect for gfishfunk's ploy. It was conniving and risky and all that I admire about evilness. It simply didn't pan out, and that happens. Even without ever seeing him play as a civilian, I can already see that he is a skilled and enthusiastic civilian when he is one.
Nothing anyone says in the context of Mafia should be taken as a reflection of that person. In our last foray, I caught S~V~S as mafia, and she got pissy at me to the extent that I believed she was good and that was enough to secure her team's win. On the surface, that stings, but do I think she's a bad person for it? Not at all. She used what worked to accomplish what needed to be accomplished. She tricked me. That's all fair game. This is a game of emotional and logical manipulation.
So I accept any assessment that I am being arrogant or aggressive. But I am not an asshole.
