Easter Mafia [GAME OVER]

[Epignosis]

So, let me process this in a way I can understand.

If you're the manager, and you have to pull one guy of the lineup, do you take out Nolan Arenado, who could, yes, have a bad night, or do you take out a guy who hasn't even shown up to batting practice?

Because I'm not taking out Nolan over a guy who hasn't even shown up to batting practice. I'll wait until I see Nolan struggle and then make a decision then. But not before the game even starts. That's irresponsible.

This more or less sums up my feelings too. Kinda weird to do a policy lynch on day 1, but there are benefits.

What benefits, and what's the policy?

[ColinIsCool]

Maybe I used policy lynch incorrectly there, but it sounds like you're saying we should lynch people who haven't contributed at all as a Day 1 rule, Charlie.

Benefits would be not losing voices in a game that's having a tough time taking off and also, of course, there's nothing stopping a scum from just lurking at this point. Especially at this point, maybe.

[ColinIsCool]

I would really prefer it if people got in and played, though, I don't want to vote for someone who has literally done nothing. :/

[Kylemii]

I think Charlie Blackmoor was specifically talking about Jay rather than making a sweeping statement about low posters in general

Correct. Never take out your heavy hitters without good reason. Turn everybody else into a heavy hitter instead.

[ColinIsCool]

Gotcha. I think we're talking about the same thing just in different words. Some of them being related to baseball, some not.

It's the third inning. What kind of pitch are you throwing at Nolan?

[Quin]

i had to google what an inning was for that bit of roleplay so you'd better answer me

[Marmot]

A good friend of mine is moving to Easter Island this week, doing a teaching residency for the next year.

So yeah, looking forward to sending letters to Easter Island.

Um. Wow.

I play center field. I'm not a pitcher. And even if I was a pitcher, Nolan Arenado is on my team, so I wouldn't be pitching to him.

Quin, do I think all of my oranges are bad and all of my greens are good?

Ridiculous garbage.

I asked you why I'm bad and you gave me a one or the other with nova. Doesn't apply to the rest.

I your exchange with another player, I thought you looked crappier than that player. The rainbow reflects that apparent crappiness. That doesn't imply that one of you must be bad. That you've stuffed that nonsense into my mouth and then pretended I said it is frankly worse than anything you did before that.

You don't suspect me.

Remove the word "crappier". You didn't say that. You didn't indicate an actual read in the slightest. I gave you a cue to elaborate on a read of me with something that didn't rely on a comparison between me and nova and you didn't. You stuffed that nonsense in your own mouth. I only have to read your posts to prove it.

That is a read. If I have cause to say that you look distinctly worse than someone else in any dialogue, then that means at least one thing that you said in that dialogue rubbed me the wrong way -- enough to render you an orange.

I don't have to provide some separate read in which I detach you from nova. That's fucking stupid. The read I have of you is derived from your interaction with nova. To demand that I separate you from that and provide the resulting read is to demand that I not have a read.

You're talking with your ass cheeks.

"I buy X more than Y" is not a read. If there was a thing that rubbed you the wrong way, I want you to tell me what it is. Because "I buy X more than Y" isn't it. X>Y means nothing to me.

So tell me specifically what your deal is.

[Quin]

I also want to know why you tried to pass the buck of the nova conversation onto me, when it's you he was talking about.

I already did this.

I told you: you threw a few basic posts at about his immediate and continuing treatment of me in this thread. nova answered them, and you closed the door on the dialogue with "cool. cool, cool, cool". I question the authenticity of that progression. I don't know what you learned about nova from that exchange.

Check-in post.

What's the purpose of one?

empty question. bad.

BADDDEBBDBDADDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASD4GGDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Nova looks AOK to me, woodchuck chuckers. At least he’s asking question(s)!

Here’s a question: who else here has owned a rabbit before?

Was it a good question?

It was since I didn't like your 'check in' post. I can't say I liked your explanation of it neither, nor your reaction to MacDougal's vote.

So here we go,

[VOTE: JaggedJimmyJay] aubergine

What answer could 3J have given to your question that made asking it relevant to the game of mafia?

Cool, Cool cool cool.

This was the origin of my flip-flop. I liked nova's handling of the matter and I didn't care for yours.

Separately, we have this:

nova has only said what he likes to see in a check-in post. He's said nothing about what he learned from questioning you. It was a pointless exercise until we learn what he got from that interaction.

You seem to be waiting for more clarification from nova, to render the exercise less "pointless", even though you already made it seem like you were satisfied with the dialogue and finished with it (cool x4).

[JaggedJimmyJay]

I also want to know why you tried to pass the buck of the nova conversation onto me, when it's you he was talking about.

Pass what buck? nova probably still suspects me. His vote is still on me. That is irrelevant to this conversation.

I finished my dialogue. I can guarantee that you've done the exact same thing. Drop a conversation and wait for more information. That's exactly what this post is:

Cool, Cool cool cool.

Is there any follow-up? What did you get from asking that question?

Wouldn't you like to know?

Fact is, by comparing us as you did, you make it as though those two reads exist together. If nova's argument made you feel better about him and my argument made you feels worse about me, those are separate reads. They should have been separate.

You also said I closed the door on the nova discussion. Why are you going through my door? Get your own.

[Quin]

They DO exist together. The reads derive from a series of posts involving each of you to include a literal exchange between you.

Why do the reads have to be separate? Why does that matter?

Is this ever going to happen when you let the exercise die with "cool. cool, cool, cool"? That was closure.

Why are you not interested in what he learned from his questioning? It was about you. You call me out for dropping the conversation but don't care about it yourself.

I think he already made it clear what he learned, or at least how he felt. I don't actually know what more you expect from him.

This is an unhelpful answer. I have no clearer understanding of what you're saying than I did before.

You're not mean. Mafia is a game of confrontation.

I don't know how else to phrase it. Because they exist together, based off of that first post you make it sound like one of us has to be bad. Then you say that's not true, which makes it sound like the read is fabricated.

I don't understand how orange brings you to red. Why can't I like one player less than another in some exchange and still conceive of a universe in which both are civilians?

The fact that you compared nova and myself and your rainbow list what makes it sound like one of us, but not both of us, is bad.

You deny that we both have to be bad, which contradicts the first line. But I believe you meant the first line, so that would make this a lie.



Or something. To be honest I haven't got a god damn clue what I'm on about anymore. Someone tell me whether I'm making a lick of sense.
