I am of a strong belief that people who are quick to throw insults and generally being an a**hole they are are trying to make up for weak arguments.

One Ghug-Squigs exchange really sticks in my craw. Squigs was musing about past games he played with ghug and ghug came back and said:

"I understand that you lack my genius, though, so I can't expect you to reach the logical conclusion.

Regardless, I suggest you get the fuck over it."

This was completely unnecessary and over the top. Squigs discussion was really friendly banter. Why would you go out of your way to go full douche? Because you are trying to tell everyone "don't even try to question me"..and given that the rest of town is not up to the same level of a**hole as ghug we are falling for it. I would expect such a genius mafia player, if town, to actually try and lead town. Instead he puts in a weak effort, but can happily post at great length after the mislynch that everyone except him is a moron. This isn't town play. This is BS. He should be our lynch tomorrow.
Unfortunately you have described ghug's meta here - he is kinda just an ass towards other players regardless of his alignment.

Expanding further - we will only be at MyLo if the box goes boom on a town player tonight.

If we lose one town tonight, it will be 5-3, so it could be MyLo, because if we mislynch we would need a save or scum box kill N7. However, I agree that the doctor should not reveal at night, before we know what the situation is D7.

Because it is ghug.

Honestly I think he has been a bit nicer than past games which I appreciate.

It turns out that being an asshole is really effective at getting reactions from people.

But being as asshole is also a quite effective way to discourage people from pressuring you.

You have been pretty much not questioned in this game.

What reasoning do you find awful?
Your damo/flash/ghug scum team.
That is easy to say now that we know I was wrong about damo, but you were voting for damo on D5.
If I go back and read your reasoning, it seems like me being scum is at least partially tied to damo being scum too. Given that damo is not scum, you do not see a need to review your scum list?

I never said that I do not need to reevaluate after being wrong about damo. I obviously was misreading what took place on D1 and D2.

I already have been. He just regurgitates the same talking points each time...thinking that repeating the same BS will make it true.

I wasn't before because I have been trying not to reflexively vote for people voting for me. But we know his points are getting debunked yet he keeps on repeating them again and again and again. His position is not evolving. I am not seeing this "master play" which I am supposed to expect.

What points have been debunked?

As we've gotten more information, it's only added to how scummy you look. My reads have evolved to account for that, you've just still looked bad.

Does anyone actually believe this? Really? I can't believe you are so dumb.
