My my. I still got it, eh?
Where 'it' is the ability to almost get lynched D1. Wait, where's Dariush? Dariush, come vote for me. I'm lonely. [/JOKE]
Anyway, on a more serious note;
Why aren't you answering?
Because it is a silly RVS question, which will not help anyone with anything. It is part of my ongoing protest against the futility of the RVS. Although, to be fair, it weren't so bad in this one.
Still not going to answer, though. Its silly, and nothing sensible will be gained from it.
NUKE9.13: While I'm not going to argue that lying isn't anti-town, how could Simple saying he's the brother of his previous character at all show he was scum?
If he was lying, he was trying to make his flavour seem more plausible, by connecting his claims to facts. We see the fact, think 'I remember that that is a fact', and our minds start to consider the whole thing a fact. Using such methods, unnecessary lies, to make us consider his claim more plausible, is only the action of someone who seriously does not want people to question their flavour.
And, yes, if it wasn't lying, he would be very, very old. Supernaturally old. The supernatural are our enemies.
But yeah, seeing as the GM confirmed that his blatant lies were the truth, I can't really say much.
NUKE: Sup Jester? You're being awfully willing to participate in this RVS stuff you normally hate so much, and being deliberately unhelpful in your answers. Care to explain yourself?
Tsk, McArathos, I didn't expect this sort of thing from you.
Cheap shots at NUKE9.13, notorious for his early-D1 bullshit? Now, now. What's the rush to get someone lynched? Can't we all get along?
To destroy your pitiful arguments:
-I ain't participating in the RVS. I have mocked someone for trying to make me do so, and otherwise concerned myself only with flavourclaims. I have not gone out of my way to try to convince people not to do it, true. Sue me. I grow tired of my one-man crusade. I am convinced that I can personally keep the RVS short and unobtrusive enough that it doesn't bug me, and that's good enough for me.
-Deliberately unhelpful? Not so- I clearly stated my intent, even whilst not responding to the question itself. I have been quite helpful.
-Ah, I understand the confusion. I am not a jester, I am an actor. Jesters are
so last century. [/joke]
On a more serious note, if I was a jester, you wouldn't know it. You would think I was scum who made a tiny slip up, and you would feel so proud as you led me to the gallows. See: Cult Mafia.
NUKE9.13: While I'm not going to argue that lying isn't anti-town, how could Simple saying he's the brother of his previous character at all show he was scum?
I believe the argument was that since the games are so far apart chronologically, Simple's character this time around being the brother to a character from last game would imply somebody too old to be human. It's a bit of a stretch, but I could kinda see it.
Sticking with that reasoning after the mod said "my bad, dude's not actually that old" is pretty aggressive and hinky, though. That said...
My thanks for your help, stranger. To counter your hastily-tacked on back tracking, I give you the following quote:
Ok, fine. You are off the hook, simple. Unvote
Perhaps you missed it?
Okay, sweet.
Why did you feel the need to talk about it? If you don't think NUKE9.13 is suspicious for it then it's not really worth talking about.
Well, as I said, I do so love to hear myself talk, a personality trait currently enhanced by NaNoWriMo and a bit of enthusiasm at getting back into Mafia.
Nice. I love hearing people talk (myself included), so I'm sure we will get along fabulously.
I did find it suspicious, though, and pointed it out as such; I believe "aggressive and hinky" were the exact descriptors I used. Granted, I didn't vote for NUKE--but then, with some of NUKE's other behavior, like sitting in a corner in chuckling instead of answering a question, it seems a bit like he's being deliberately suspicious, so I think Urist might have a point about him being a Jester.
Hmm.
:/
Not very good, this. Ok, I can grant you the benefit of the doubt, and pretend this is what you actually think.
For reference: I am not an idiot. I am not a jester. I dislike the RVS, and as such, I dick around with those who champion it. In this case, Imiknorris.
Also, this looks like you are just echoing things you've heard from others. It looks scummy.
And, dangit, that sounds like more scumtalk, doesn't it? :[
Er, right, yes. That. Oh, woe is me- I can't accuse you of looking scummy now, you've said it yourself. Well, have a nice day.
...waaaait.
Don't do this. I am going to give you the benefit again (for the last time), and pretend you really thought this would help people. It doesn't. If something looks like scumtalk, rephrase it so that it doesn't. If it cannot be rephrased in such a manner as to make your meaning clear in a town way, that's probably because you are scum, or what you are trying to say is not true.
For what it's worth, though, I'd probably be tossing him under the bus if we were scumchums. That is, in the vernacular, how I roll.
D:<
Remember when I said that it was the last time you would get the benefit of the doubt? Its just up a few lines, if you forgot.
I lied.
This is the last time. But you had best cut this scummy shit out.
Understand that this alone is not too bad. It's just that stacked on top of everything else, it just enhances the air of someone pretending to be sort of a newish player, scraping and bowing to the veterans, echoing their thoughts so as to buddy up to them, apologizing for his every flaw so that no one actually bothers examining said flaws for the scumminess that lies behind them.
Has everyone flavourclaimed already?
