Let's say we change the format from 90 minutes to 60 minutes. Everybody knows the match is 60 min, no more no less. If you can't score in the time that you've been given, why bitch about that when everybody knows that's how long the game is supposed to be. How would that look in other sports? For example in F1 you know the Grand Prix is let's say 50 laps. Teams strategize around that given fact and drivers drive their cars for that specific numbers, as fuel and tires are limited. This number is set, no matter if there is a safety car, yellow flag whatever the number stays the same. You were going to attack the last 10 laps, but you would only manage to get past on the 11th? Though luck, because you know you had so many laps to do it and to me this same should apply to football in case we do actually go to actual play time. You had 60 minutes to score, so why would you do it in a potential 61'.

That was a penalty for me, hand in a unnatural position, the ball would have gone another route if the hand wasn't there, it's a penalty. You can argue about intention all you want, but intention doesn't cover everything Can't argue with that, but to be fair another mistake takes place for that goal to go in. Mandzukic didn't help the cause by heading it like that The 'Dutch' is rubbing off on the Belgians I see, or at least a good tournament has the Belgians pick up some Dutch tendencies. What is exactly anti-football. Defending is absolutely an aspect in the game, as much as attacking. You can say all you like about France, the players that they have and the football that they are supposedly obliged to play, but that is the most non-argument I've heard and it's always the Dutch that say it, because quite frankly we are so hellbent on 'totaalvoetbal', tiki-taka, offensive football, whatever, that everything besides that is basically 'anti-football'. Do you play this game to win or for the show. First and for most you compete to win and France have done that. How they do it is irrelevant to me. During EURO 2016 the Dutch broadcast could not shut up about the fact that the Dutch team should never win a tournament like the Portuguese did. Newsflash, we haven't won shit in years, so it's basically a non discussion if you can't even compete in the same tournament and the same goes for this one. We need to get our heads out of our mighty totaalvoetbal asses and start playing some actual football before we comment on other countries play styles. I'm afraid this mentality is starting to rub off on the Belgians, because it's basically the same if you see the comments that Courtois made about France. Kevin de Bruyne's comments were much more levelheaded in that regard 100% agree with this part though. If we want to see this sport move forward, like we did with goal line technology and the VAR, we need to start playing the game in actual time. Stop the clock as soon as the ball is out of play. No more time wasting shenanigans with players seemingly forgetting how to throw a ball, no more time wasting with players faking injuries, no more goalkeepers that take ages to restart play again, no more time wasting by substituting players who for some reason never know when they need to go off. More importantly also no more bitching about extra time being unfair because we don't need extra time anymore

France are very well deserved champions, but nothing can be taken away from Croatia who have played their hearts and feet out. Mark my words, this isn't going to be Mbappe's last World Cup. This France team has some a great future ahead

Damn they actually pulled it off. England played so bad that game, unbelievable. Especially against a side that has so much more match time in their legs. France have played a full match in match time less than the Croatians. It's going to be an interesting finals for sure.

Ironic isn’t it, because that’s exactly what Kim has done. Not so different after all I guess

Wow ad hominem argument, I honestly somehow expected more from you Lys.

I've always said that France was my pick as the winner before the tournament started, England has been very solid this entire tournament, same goes for Belgium. Croatia is the underdog, but absolutely not without a chance, however playing 120 minutes and penalties twice already is pretty straining on a team. France > England > Belgium > Croatia for me

Worked a treat in Iraq right, or Afghanistan? Funny thing is that this time the nation in question can actually bite back with nucleair weapons, so that's the exact same moment that a nuke lands on US soil. If you think that things are fixed so easily, why in the last 70 years haven't the US done it sooner and before you blame it on previous presidents, why not even in the last few years? But nucleair warfare is fun right. You've also completely neglected the fact why 'you' are still at war with NK. NK is still backed by China and Russia and given it's geological position, they aren't going to back out any time soon. The situation is delicate, it has been for 70 years, yet your president is willing to throw that all away after that puppet show? I doubt that. Storming into a room claiming to solve a conflict which isn't really a conflict anymore, yet storming out of the room blowing up said conflict. It's a bit ironic, but it's telling that he's willing the relinquish an existing standstill in the conflict. You saw Kim sign an empty promise, which could be signed in blood, sweat and tears if you want but both parties are holding up their end of the bargain probably, i.e. nothing. Trump just claims all the things that are in the agreement, but can he actually reproduce said agreement so we can all see what has been agreed on? Highly doubt we'll see that, so his sheep will just follow whatever he claims is in the agreement, because there is no way he'd lie about it right? No way a politician would ever lie about these things, that's absurd.

Trump doesn't have the balls to actually go to war, calling that right now. What would that so called war even be based on? The fact that the US and NK signed something that has for all intents and purposes no actually meaning expect we talked about our days and shook hands afterwards. What did people actually expect when that piece of paper was signed? That Kim was going to destroy all his nukes and call it a day? Even if that was the case, what do NK have to gain from it? All that Trump did was boast about what he had accomplished that day, but never did he mention what he had to give in return. So either Trump didn't accomplish anything that day which means he doesn't need to give something in return, or he made a deal with NK and his end of the bargain is something that he can't possibly bring back home to his followers. Given the fact that NK is just proceeding like nothing happened, you'd probably guess which one applies.

Spain has been failing since 2012, I never understood the hype around them. They don't have the striker to facilitate their play style and don't have the players to facilitate their striker

So let me get this straight, the one night that I get tracked you happen to get a result that isn't consistent with all your other results. I'm being set up here by someone. You don't find it convenient that there is a supposed FBI agent, but no SK? The same FBI agent that 'ousted' me by saying that my Pokemon was mentioned in the flavor text. Where is my Pokemon name this time then? I don't know what's possible or not in flavor text, but I might suspect that I was framed that night, which caused my Pokemon to be named like that in the flavor text. Wouldn't it make sense if I actually killed Brewers last night that my Pokemon would be named like previous kills? I don't know what more to give you, but the fact that a SK has yet to appear makes me suspicious of Rhizo's claim. Because what would be make more sense? A townie who's Bulletproof in a game so he has scum protection, or a FBI agent in a game with no SK? I'm inclined to be believe that Rhizo purposely bluffed his powers and investigations to get Ali killed. Bluff to make it sound like one of the two lovers is a SK, town lynches the innocent townie and scum get a free 2 for 1, because Rhizo is dead if it turns out that Ali is town. However we are so far in this game that that play doesn't matter anymore, since all his other scum partners died before him. It honestly is a shame that Darkfox decided not to roleblock me, because it would have proved my innocence more than what Jazzy can provide us with (which honestly is bugging me, because I can't do shit during night, yet he got nothing happened instead of targeted nobody). I honestly can't explain that, but maybe scum have a power left that can do things like that.

Please tell me jazzy tracked me to prove my innocence because I’m not scum and I don’t know how many times or different times I have to tell you

Thats no good. Why would you track brewers of all people? It also doesn't help that he reveals this after Brewers announced it

8681 0738 2573

It's funny right. 2 people are blocked and I'm not one of them and according to town I'm the for sure scum, yet nobody dies. If I were scum, wouldn't I rather risk getting blocked then to put my other scum buddy in immediate danger since there is still a Tracker alive? I really don't care anymore, you can lynch me if you want. Town can afford the mislynches after so many nights of blocked kills or inactive scum. I have nothing more I can share and quite frankly I can't do more than I have done so far

I can only say that I'm 100% a X-shot Bulletproof, so Kevin is lying if he's claiming to be bulletproof as well.

@@Samus Can you change the title to WC 2018 so we can discuss the WC as a whole, not just the Spain - Portugal match. Would love to hear some people's opinions on other matches as well

Bit harsh on Spain though and not enough credit for Portugal Because first of all, they didn't lose. A draw was a very reasonable outcome of this match, especially if you take in consideration that the whole Spain camp is on high tilt since they fired the coach like a day before the tournament started. Second of all Ronaldo hasn't been a prolific free kick specialist for a while now so conceding that free kick there was always better than giving a 100% chance to anyone else. I agree though with the fact that Nacho, Pique and De Gea made some stupid mistakes, but punishing those mistakes is part of the sport and it's no coincidence that Ronaldo is the one punishing them

What a goal (last one), what a player

Unless bullets are a normal move, I don't see how Gengar can be bulletproof

If this is true, than it pretty much confirms it right? Unless someone really has some solid information about someone else, I think this is the right course of action Vote: Kevin

Unvote Jazzy I don’t know who started this bullshit but the moment we start having the flavor text dictate how we should play we are done for. I understand the fact that we are grasping for straws in a game that has progressed as it has but honestly actions should be louder than words and so far I’ve seen people just yell random shit to justify their actions and not the other way round. I honestly don’t want to lynch Ali just yet because it would kill SGB in the process but with the game this tight it’s preferably him over me. Also to point out the Jazzy wagon. Nobody in this game was willing to do anything before I put some pressure on Jazzy,but let’s forget that part shall we. Better to all collectively sit on our hands right

Talk about a stretch and then some. I could go online to find whatever connection to all of the Pokemon mentioned, but that doesn't mean that Pokemon X is for sure part of a scum team that could be literally any Pokemon. If it were true that scum team was consistent of all Rock-type, or Pokemon that are mentioned in whatever Pokedex entry together or what not, would I seriously take the chance to roleclaim Golem? Think about that I'll fully roleclaim so people won't get persuaded to follow this nonsense that Rhizo is spewing, however I will confirm something that he threw out there as I believe there is a SK in this game, because I'm Golem, a X-shot Defense Curl-er (Bulletproof). I'm not saying how many shots I have because I honestly believe seeing as there have been 2 nights where no kills have occurred that I've been targeted at least once. However as I've asked TW I will not be informed if and when my power is used to protect me. I'd like to point out that Rhizo being a FBI-agent doesn't automatically make him town. He could very well be a scum FBI agent. Seeing as Manda is again so easily swayed into believing him, I wouldn't be surprised that those 2 are on the same team. Do I believe Ali is a Vig or a SK, I'm not sure. I wanted to wait out this night to find out as it's also possible that TW gave town a Bulletproof as protection against an unfortunate Vig kill + scum protection. If there were 2 kills again this night it would have fully confirmed my suspicions but unfortunately Rhizo forced my hand.

I just read back all the flavor texts that TW made and I'd argue that only the last couple of texts are really worth looking into. The Pokemon that have been mentioned are Pikachu, Spearow, Bulbasaur, Charizard (allegedly Ali), Arcanine (MK), Chansey (Canik v1), Snorlax (Canik v2), Blastoise (Atliis), Venasaur, Hitmonchan and Rhydon. Only the last ones are interesting for us as those are the ones that drop the most names, but Machamp (Rafay) wasn't named anywhere. So I'd say we shouldn't really focus on the first couple ones all to much as I don't someone is going to claim Spearow, Bulbasaur or Pikachu. Venasaur and Rhydon could be mafia Pokemon, as mentioned before. That being said I'm Golem

And do you care to share some results then?
