Okay so since you are arguing with me time to crack my knuckles and discuss mafia.

In any thread of mafia there is a limited amount of bandwidth the players of town are going to have to discuss things, whereas scum tend to be thinking less critically in the thread itself because they are not solving merely putting on a show. Scum always has to, naturally, work less hard than town in thread because they have the answer sheet even if some people are bad enough as scum that this isn't true for them personally.

So me personally, Lopen, I would literally never lynch you when you went after Ben. Because to me there are very few scum worlds where a scum Lopen who has had two buddies scanned would be willing to do this. It just makes absolutely no sense for you to ever do that. I thought you were town before that in topic, and if I had been alive I would have chided you but known it was clearly town crazy theory.

However there are worse sins in this world than merely your own demise. What you did, and really propelled a lot in many days, is a sort of brain drain on the town where people had to argue against your invalid points repeatedly to the point that all you were left with was people suspecting you because you exceeded their bandwidth of ability with your own bad play. That is partially on them, yes, but also on you. It was a dance of bad play that took two to tango and to be certain everyone danced along to it.

I don't point this out to be mean spirited or to poke, but because you are doomed to repeat your mistakes if you don't confront them.

Your argument is the very reason I preach "don't be results based." Like in Poker you can go all in with 3-8 off suit and be against aces and win sometimes, but that doesn't mean it was the winning strategy overall - it just worked. In this case it did not work but because the people around you played poorly to an extreme extent you are seeking some kind of comfort in the fact that their inability was on par with yours. You literally said "compared to some of these people I was town MVP" when in my score card day 3 and on you were probably the LVP because you had such a voice in the town and you did nothing but harm to the win condition. There is a reason you were never night killed. Sbell it can be said is a morose player with middling skill on the best of days but he didn't have enough influence to ruin town as much as you did.

A lot of players did really bad. If you want to call it a big bad tie I wouldn't bother to argue and move on, but acting as if there was any redeeming qualities in your play from day 3 on even if I could town read you based off of it is just the height of delusion.

I've had really bad games too, if it makes you feel any better. I had a game probably worse than this where I got super pocketed on MU in a discord mafia by a scum neighbor.
