I agree, the other would be nonsense, but it's odd that you've taken that and presented it in isolation when doing so just misrepresents his point.

His point was that if it can't be explained thoroughly then meta should be left out, but he didn't suggest that it should be left out in isolation.

If he had done then I'd be agreeing with you not questioning your intent.

Yeah he said PGO is one of the few roles he's willing to claim since it's harmful to town. Where's the punchline?

I guess it's that T-Pein would be overly concerned about hurting Town but that just seems more like a reason he's scum lol

CHOPPING BLOCK FOR SCUM KILL

you cannot ensure the doctor will protect the outed cop if the player (fang) consistently and continuously paints themselves as scum

there is no guarantee fang is going to turn around and not dig a deeper hole for himself. theoretically if the doc keeps seeing this behavior, and feels far more confident someone else is town, they'll more than likely protect their more confident read
youre assuming all docs operate on a unverisal baseline. but it depends on the player. when i was doc, i would protect people i town read over someone who freed themselves from a lynch after 80 gazillion pages over how they're not scum
but with the player i viewed as town, i had chosen to protect because i was extremely confident they were (gogeta). it depends on what should be prioritized

the fact fang is getting heat this early on may be indicative of needing protection if he claims. or it could mean the would be lynch was misdirected to another player using pressure and other logistics. if there's a player, let's say you, who the doc theoretically reads as town and feels you're incredibly beneficial to the game despite not having as much heat on them, they don't know if scum will go after fang or poyser. logically, they'd protect poyser in the case poyser was onto something, and use fang to distract from the thread and let him hang around as a scummy read if he's town

there are ways scum can use fang to their advantage, and there are different methods and players that docs might feel more willing to protect if they feel the cost of losing them is high VS the cost of losing fang is low

i agree with this. knowing that he is fang changes the perspective of his response a bit

fang has spent days defending a single point as town

and ive seen him be completely inactive and only reply to posts suspecting him - also as town

i have only seen him as scum in a game im hosting so my perspective is not from player PoV but i can say he was more aggressive as scum than town

it's literally saying the same thing, just me paraphrasing in a more verbose way

how are you interpreting what he's saying?

@Ekkologix can you clarify? without being a condescending anus

But it's literally not what he said.

He said they should be expanded upon for the benefit of players that are less familiar or not used at all.

Do you think scum would rather kill the cop or the person you personally most think is town? You should be protecting who you think scum want to kill. That is the universal baseline lol. Scum don’t want the cop around. If he claims cop and isn’t counterclaimed then you can safely assume he is town in 99% of cases and has an incredibly useful role that needs to be protected and scum would love to get rid of

my only issue with yoshi is how he instantly believes the other players this game, but i reckon a newbie scum wud atleast read the game before making risky takes like saying RDK is deflecting
