Black Mamba is one of the nicknames of Kobe Bryant, who wears # 24. He's old and washed up, inaccurate, probably responsible for global warming.
BlackMamba24, BM24, Kobe are all ... that guy, who also has an old account that people are calling DrH, which he's posted under a couple times (DrHelvetica).
Steve Nash is everyone's favorite player ever, who now has the misfortune of playing a team with Kobe.

The above is the explanation of basketball players, from someone with no bias at all.

I'm not discussing the numbers crap and the scumslip. However, this part of your post has been addressed by numerous folks. The explanation is the bit about how doing a scummy thing and then quickly backing down might have looked scummier, so he had to stick with it, which he proceeded to do vigorously.
As to your case on Steve Nash's teammate, I don't love it. I DO think that milton just got the times mixed up, that's a legitimate explanation from me. You can call it outright lying, but I just came from a game in which I thought 2 or 3 things had been said that weren't, and where one of our medics claimed to protect a dead person one night. I was town, he was town, we both "lied." It happens, and frankly, if you're talking about an actual fact (x happened before y), you're not talking about something scum can twist for their objectives, it doesn't really further scummy objectives when anyone can check the order and call you out. I think that's a legitimate reason to go into changing your read on someone, especially when almost 24 hours elapsed between the "vigis/trackers on this guy" post and the next mention. You can argue that if his read changed there should be a post when that happened, but...not enough for me to find Steve Nash's teammate scummy. Moreover, he had one of those little quotes that sticks out to me as something that only a townie could have written: Show nested quote +On September 06 2012 07:51 BlackMamba24 wrote: If you're unsure if someone is scum/assassin but have good reason to think they are scum, broadcast their case as an assassin so that assassins will hit the scum at night and help us win faster. That's not just an idea that should get you town cred, it's just a weird little thought thrown into a bigger post of his, and, in my mind, it's not what I'd come up with if I were just thinking about how to get townies to think I'm townie.
I've said all I need to say on Ottoxlol. Considering his emotionality and unreasonableness during his defense of Mattchew, it reads pretty clear to me that he doesn't know allignments. I doubt he's scum caught in bad allignments, considering how many opportunities town gave him to back off his reads. He could've taken any one of them and looked fine, not scummy as you suggest. Him hard-defending Mattchew is nonsensical from a scum perspective - it shouldn't even cross his mind to defend Mattchew once he's confirmed scum by the moderator if he knows player allignments!
As for my case on DrH, it has nothing to do with my suspicions on MiltonKram, so I'm not sure why you bring that up. It has everything to do with the sudden shift in suspicions. I realize 24 hours elapsed, but take a look at MiltonKram's filter. Between his case on me and his last post (neutral questioning of BillMurray), he does nothing to alleviate himself of suspicion or make him seem more townie.
Also, you missed a key part of one of DrH's posts:
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=361826¤tpage=40#795
1. People who went actively or softly against the Mattchew lynch: Ottoxlol/Gravan
2. People who came in after Palmar confirmed it and made fluff posts
3. At least one active person, probably Bill Murray. He's seemed to focus a lot on people like MiltonKram/Hapahauli neither of whom are scummy at all and meanwhile his rhetoric/language seems very much an attempt to buddy up with me or other people.
Look at point #2 - that's exactly what Miltonkram was doing, and in the very same post, he calls Mitonkram "not scummy at all." This makes absolutely no sense.

Ok so when BM referenced Kobe he was talking about DrH. So who is Steve Nash an alias for?

Sorry. Steve Nash's teammate = Kobe = Black Mamba = DrH. He appears to be a man of many names.

I'm so convinced by that one bit of a post that he could claim scum in thread and I wouldn't believe him. I would straight up Ottoxlol in his defense. But I can understand that reasoning may not work for others.+ Show Spoiler +Seriously...that bit of one post has to be from a town player. It's such a weird little statement AND it makes no sense for assassins who have 1 bullet but unlimited yes/no checks for other assassins to read a case and shoot at the subject of the case just because he got called an assassin.
You'd check the subject of the case the first night. If the guy comes back assassin, you shoot. If not, you don't. You're not firing your only bullet at another assassin just because someone makes a case that pins a player as an assassin.
The part of the post you reference doesn't even strike me as forcing Steve Nash's teammate to find Milton scummy.On September 06 2012 07:51 BlackMamba24 wrote: You'll find most of the scum team in these three groups.

He's seemed to focus a lot on people like MiltonKram/Hapahauli neither of whom are scummy at all and meanwhile his rhetoric/language seems very much an attempt to buddy up with me or other people. So MOST of the scum (4 or 5 people we seem to think) are in these three groups. Saying "most of the scum are part of these groups" is different from "the people in these groups are scummy." I'd be way more concerned if he thought everyone in each of those groups was scummy (every active person would be scummy), than if there were people who fit those categories yet he found town.
Last thing, what does Steve Nash's teammate get out of calling Milton scummy? What does he get out of deciding Milton isn't scummy? What scum purpose does changing that read have?
|
Regarding the "Assassin" statement - I don't see that as a town read or not. It's, as you say, a "weird statement", and that's all I get from it.
Regarding the List - Again, I'm not saying that DrH needs to find Milton scummy. If he found Milton null, that would be fine, but "not scummy at all" is a blatant contradiction considering who he's suggesting the town to analyze. After that post, it would make more sense for him to take a closer look at Milton rather than give him a town read.
Regarding why it makes him "scummy": Well first off, I'm not suggesting a vigi-shot on DrH or anything like that. I just found something suspicious in his filter that I want him to answer (since he hadn't been answering before). As for why it makes him "scummy," my interpretation is that he forgot about his read on Milton. I've seen this read with more active-mafia metas in other games (See Risen forgetting his suspicions on ShadySands D1 of Deathnote Mini Mafia). Also, It makes sense, considering that he wanted to use "townie Milton" as an excuse to point suspicion at Bill Murray (point #3).
|
Another point: I find it strange that DrH is willing to see "bad townie" in MiltonKram, but is completely unwilling to see any "bad townie" motivation in Ottoxlol. From my perspective, I think it's pretty clear that Ottoxlol is a deluded townie, and DrH really hasn't even considered the other side of things. He's been incredibly aggressive at getting Ottox vigi-killed - and this was all before BC brought up the 5-man team "scumslip" (which I still believe is a misinterpretation, but we've argued enough of that).
|
Just so I can add something to the thread: If Otto gets vigi'd tonight and turns up red, Hap's next on my list. If Otto turns up green, Hap's in the clear. He seems like the next most logical focus after Otto.

Is Rewok a smurf or a new guy?

Judging from the filter and his /in post, he looks new:
Can I still /in? This sounds like fun.

hold on. let me filter him, as I have thought of another explanation

second time filtering him this game, but i'm going to be combing for something.

weird interaction between kobe and austin there, too, and coupled with him slipping in his wording? potential scumteam
|
im not an idiot so i don't feel the need to inform the thread every single time my reads shift or i change my mind because it's cluttering
i tried talking to you before in death note mafia hapahauli and it didn't work because you are stubborn and horrible at scumhunting so im going to actually ignore everything you said
you're obsessed with milton
your whole case hinges on the fact that my reads seem to be changing which is something that happens to everyone. get a grip.

yeah scum me, is incredibly afraid of ottoxlol the guy that doesn't push his cases and just attacks everyone and creates chaos
your little thing about how miltonkram lurked after voting for mattchew, yeah that is bad, yeah he should be considered, but i don't think over ottox right now. basically, miltonkram is a lurker who falls in a group of players where scum is likely hiding. however, that is not enough to lynch or kill right now because a lot of people fit that description.
first lynch actively scummy people
then look into lurkers and pressure them when there's nothing better to do
go ahead and keep pressuring miltonkram,t hat's a pro-town thing to do but i'm by no means defending him and going after people for not worshipping your case is egotistical but not in a helpful way.
im not gonna validate you with responses anymore, people might think you're worth listening to
|
when i say not scummy at all that's equivalent to null read i.e. i read his filter and nothing jumped out at me as particularly scummy
