@Blues: the reason there wasn't a problem with Tom's PR was because he's legit done the same type of stuff as town. You're right though; dropping it in LyLo should have been a giveaway.
Was fun to watch all, will be interesting to see how OTG4 goes when it eventually fires.
@shadowlancerx: He's seriously gone through entire games averaging 5 words a post?
Honestly, the gimmick just was not fun for me to play against. It pretty much gave him a pass on posting actual content, since he just needed to come up with a short quote that was vaguely applicable to the situation at hand - the only reason I didn't push early for a lynch on him is because there was no way for me to get a scumtell from the little bit he was posting.
It was still a fun game, though, and I will definitely look forward to the next one.
Good game everyone! Thanks for carrying my scummy play tom!
This was a weird game to play because the activity was so low but had a pretty high average post quality. Made it hard (for me anyway) to fake reads. The hammer on me came out of absolute nowhere but I had definitely felt the walls closing in and my only hope was hammering blues before I died.

I believe he did an entire game with no words and just gifs. He also did a game with only direct flavor text from cards in the Alara block. And he played a game as a spider; and a robot. So yeah.

Anyway was a fun game to watch.
Huh. Something I'll have to keep in mind, at least, then.
prolly just gonna play for real for awhile. messing with too many people's fun. if i do something weird, at minimum i have to still be able to explain myself.
sorry for the brutal hammer, grapefruit. felt like i had to with my "stated" belief that it was you and blues.
paid off in the end though.
i still don't understand how anyone could think I was scum this game with how Grapefruit took advantage of my case on nobue. That wagon proves I'm town beyond a doubt.

Definitely paid off! And you were right to do it. I was floundering and in your proposed scum team.

Maybe I'm just not familiar with the meta at all here, but I felt you were going for a strong, controlling style of play. The night kills led me really pushed me there. The way you were playing reminded me heavily of the controlling style, which I felt was more evident that Grape/Tom's plan. I just don't think I know enough about this game to make judgement calls. Sorry about that.
Yeh I am controlling. Town needs control to win, but sadly it makes me the final mislynch pretty often.
Still, if no one in tonw takes control, scum has an easy game, so I do believe I am correct playing like that.

Anyway fun game and thanks for hosting Dota!

Y'all should have lynched it out of him before attrition/momentum made it a charming personality quirk, IMO.
Now you kinda have to live with it.

This, to me, is the essence of Rhand.
