He dismissed it saying he didn't like his case against forumit (and cases against vets in genera)l, but that he agreed with the conclusion.
i.e. "your case sucks, but I also think forumite is scum"

He doesn't shit on it so much as disregard it as being poor.

Hopefully will get time to catch up on the Forumite thing, I don't recall him properly addressing any of the cases built against him and he went lurking as soon as people stopped paying attention to him.
BM, you can check out Dwarf Mini for my latest (2nd time excluding Bureaucracy) scum game. I played in Mad Men, Movie Star Mini and Pick Your Poison as town (was innocent child in PYP). Only normal blue role I got was medic in Newbie III. Rest have been in setup games. Oh I think I was JK in Movie star.

He does mention it being d1/n1 too. And considering a lot of his own case on Forumite was based on "town-forumite would be much more helpful", it does make sense. On d1/n1, it might be early to call someone out for not helping, but almost at end on N2, its not.

Why would you claim this? You eliminated yourself as a possible blue from scums list of townies, and it´s not like you doing this eliminates you as a scum suspect. If someone see you visiting a player who dies the we´re lynching you anyway. "We're lynching you anyway" Not cool. First, I disagree with the notion that revealing yourself as a nosy neighbor is scummy. Oh wait, Forumite didn't really say that. He didn't really say much of anything here if you ask me, but back to the point of "lynching you anyways", I don't like the blanket statements from Forumite.

If someone see you visiting a player who dies the we´re lynching you anyway. Because there is no town benefit to me hiding this information. and for all everyone knows I could be a blue role trying to avoid being incorrectly tracked as well if I get tracked to a dead person atleast there will be something to think about before mislynching me Lying to town as a blue is a bad idea. If you fakeclaim nosy neighbor to fool scum, then you risk getting lynched by town. You are still going to draw a few trackers during the first few nights, just to make sure that you are really visiting people at random with no effect, so because of this you might actually be hurting town by distracting blues. Why are trackers going to be inclined to 'verify' a nosy neighbor claim? Even if Mattchew is scum, he just needs to do something and his claim is still up in the air. Why is Forumite trying to manipulate our blues? There's also the point about lying as a blue. How about lying in general to the town? There isn't any value in this statement. Town is supposedly harmed because our Trackers have to make sure Mattchew is really visiting random people with no effect. And then they get a confirmed townie out of the exchange. Wait, how does that hurt us again?

Hello folks ^^
I would appreciate it if someone could clear some things up, since I've never played in this setup yet. Right now I've noticed this new mechanic: visiting someone.
A nosy neighbor will randomly visit someone. This will be caught up by the town watcher and/or tracker.
Now what I don't understand: if a medic saves someone, or if a roleblocker blocks some, or if a Suicide Bomber plants a bomb somewhere, or if a goon tks someone, will they also "visit" this person? Yes, all nightactions, including mafia nightkills, can be detected by watchers and trackers. I´ve never seen you before. Have you been on TL-mafia long? What do you think about the game so far?

What's nagging at me, is that you completely shat on hopeless1's case, saying you didn't like cases against vet's in general. Also, in his case, there are some parts where he mentions some of the things you did on his case against forumite. If you were inclined to think that forumite is scum, why didn't you give emphasis to some of those parts?
[...]
I did not completly shat on hopeless1's case saying I didn't like cases against vet's in general.
I said I don't like it that much because it's far-fetched. What I meant with that is that I see some points on foru and I agree with them but I also got some things I completly disagree with in his case as I do not think everything he pointed out is a mafiatrait or scummy at all.
Also about the I don't like cases against vet's in general-phrase as at least 5 people have asked about that by now and it seems no matter how often you guys ask about there's always someone who's still misunderstanding what I said back than.
What I meant was I don't like the cases we've got on foru (or vets in general) so far, saying the cases on vets we've got are not good as they're far-fetched.
I never said or intended it to sound like I don't like cases against vets.
I think I should have made that misunderstanding clear by now but apparently people come back to that all the time and ask me about it...
About other Mafiareads:
Not much right now. We've already got 2 flipped mafias and there're not going to be 191518696 more mafias in this game.
I'm still standing by my point that either Grush or Shady has to be mafia. They're both giving me a hard time and everytime I want to get something going on Grush, Shady gets in the thread saying something that just screams "LYNCH ME" and vice verca.
So I'm kind of having a hard time on those two.
I'm still suspicious of S&B but I don't really want to go into details about him for a reason.

He dismissed it saying he didn't like his case against forumit (and cases against vets in genera)l, but that he agreed with the conclusion. i.e. "your case sucks, but I also think forumite is scum" I don't see why that makes him scummy.

Why would you claim this? You eliminated yourself as a possible blue from scums list of townies, and it´s not like you doing this eliminates you as a scum suspect. If someone see you visiting a player who dies the we´re lynching you anyway. "We're lynching you anyway" Not cool. First, I disagree with the notion that revealing yourself as a nosy neighbor is scummy. Oh wait, Forumite didn't really say that. He didn't really say much of anything here if you ask me, but back to the point of "lynching you anyways", I don't like the blanket statements from Forumite.

If someone see you visiting a player who dies the we´re lynching you anyway. Because there is no town benefit to me hiding this information. and for all everyone knows I could be a blue role trying to avoid being incorrectly tracked as well if I get tracked to a dead person atleast there will be something to think about before mislynching me Lying to town as a blue is a bad idea. If you fakeclaim nosy neighbor to fool scum, then you risk getting lynched by town. You are still going to draw a few trackers during the first few nights, just to make sure that you are really visiting people at random with no effect, so because of this you might actually be hurting town by distracting blues. Why are trackers going to be inclined to 'verify' a nosy neighbor claim? Even if Mattchew is scum, he just needs to do something and his claim is still up in the air. Why is Forumite trying to manipulate our blues? There's also the point about lying as a blue. How about lying in general to the town? There isn't any value in this statement. Town is supposedly harmed because our Trackers have to make sure Mattchew is really visiting random people with no effect. And then they get a confirmed townie out of the exchange. Wait, how does that hurt us again?

Why not just straight answer the question without adding another one? There is a difference in someone discrediting me and someone being deliberately disruptive. Forumite phrased the question in a way that seemingly put words in my mouth as I said the former but not the latter (or never intended to so I checked with my question).

Forumite is just stirring the pot here and not really being helpful to me. He looks like he's pushing discussion, but slo0sh was taking care of that all on his own. We didn't need Forumite to prompt him.
I see a lot of roundabout advice from Forumite on why claiming self-aware miller is terrible and how our blues are screwed for it. But nowhere does he tell us that Mattchew is scummy, just that he'll still be suspicious no matter what.

Hello folks ^^
I would appreciate it if someone could clear some things up, since I've never played in this setup yet. Right now I've noticed this new mechanic: visiting someone.
A nosy neighbor will randomly visit someone. This will be caught up by the town watcher and/or tracker.
Now what I don't understand: if a medic saves someone, or if a roleblocker blocks some, or if a Suicide Bomber plants a bomb somewhere, or if a goon tks someone, will they also "visit" this person? Yes, all nightactions, including mafia nightkills, can be detected by watchers and trackers. I´ve never seen you before. Have you been on TL-mafia long? What do you think about the game so far?

Did you read my post? I actually said he was consistent in this regard. I was trying to peg him down later in case he didn't make a proper case. I said he stinks because of his good-bye post, which I thought suspicious.
I was thinking you were trying to say toad was your top scum read and I've realised I could be completely wrong.

I did not completly shat on hopeless1's case saying I didn't like cases against vet's in general. I said I don't like it that much because it's far-fetched. What I meant with that is that I see some points on foru and I agree with them but I also got some things I completly disagree with in his case as I do not think everything he pointed out is a mafiatrait or scummy at all. Also about the I don't like cases against vet's in general-phrase as at least 5 people have asked about that by now and it seems no matter how often you guys ask about there's always someone who's still misunderstanding what I said back than. What I meant was I don't like the cases we've got on foru (or vets in general) so far, saying the cases on vets we've got are not good as they're far-fetched. I never said or intended it to sound like I don't like cases against vets. I think I should have made that misunderstanding clear by now but apparently people come back to that all the time and ask me about it... About other Mafiareads:Not much right now. We've already got 2 flipped mafias and there're not going to be 191518696 more mafias in this game. I'm still standing by my point that either Grush or Shady has to be mafia. They're both giving me a hard time and everytime I want to get something going on Grush, Shady gets in the thread saying something that just screams "LYNCH ME" and vice verca. So I'm kind of having a hard time on those two. I'm still suspicious of S&B but I don't really want to go into details about him for a reason.
Oh, I forgot about shady. I have one hell of a suspicion on him, mostly meta-based. His meta is totally balls-out off from his townie death note and townie XXIV.
Since he's mostly lurking and not being useful with his reads, I would add him somewhere between mav and Shiaopi.

Also, you forgot this part, which I consider very important:
".... What can you tell us about Bill Murray? Because he's so useless up to now that it's annoying. If you aren't targeting him, that means that he is consistent with his meta, yes? Tell us more."

I think I've seen Shady twice in newbie games and the general idea about his town meta seems to be something along the lines of
"not posting at all, lurking not contributing" so I wouldn't say his play is off meta-based at all.
Yeah it's hearsay because I haven't played with him myself but that's not a reason to lynch him. If it is you would have to say BM is mafia as well while we both seem to agree that BM looks somewhat townish.
Shady looks bad because of posts that just scream "LYNCH ME" like those:

I will say that while Shady has recent active scum and town meta, he did play a lurky mafia style in Newbie XXIII (both the aborted game in the beginning AND the reset game).
That being said, I don't think his lurkiness is necessarily an indication of his alignment. I don't think he as mafia would go after me with a case when I have a reputation of OMGUSing the shit outta people,

LOL. His meta is exactly this... he makes posts that scream "lynch me!" all the time, and he posts a LOT.
Thing is, it's mostly his reads, his him asking everybody random questions, his generally quietness that feels weird.
I've never seen him as scum so, dunno =/
|
Anywho, I'm off until after the deadline. GL surviving y'all.
Summary in case I get shot:
I have my eye on Bill Murray and Forumite for reasons posted earlier in my filter.
I also have somewhat of a lesser-eye on Sloosh - even though he was the first to vote Mattchew, looking back at his filter, I do find it odd that he was so sure that one of BC or Mattchew was scum, even though I agreed with him at the time (they could've both been town). Also, he sheeped several cases on D1. Call it a gut feeling, but I think there's something to discover there.
|
Oh, and ShiaoPi needs to get shot. That's all.
|
May as well post a little about Toad.
There were a few things I was worried about in his filter. Some bits that were fine as town, but could also be read as him setting up mafia objectives. This was also one reason I wasn't going to vote forumite, and still might not, because I was worried about Toad, and probably overly so.
The way he was asking blues to congregate on himself/BC last night worried me, in a game where scum went for a suicide bomber on outspoken townies (DrH was as outspoken and towny on my list as BC was). He wants medics on him and BC. If you're a watcher, you might want to watch those people to see who visited and either find shooters or blues if the guy doesn't die. So a request like that MIGHT = a bunch of blues stacked up. However, DrH got suicided and not BC, so the more I reread the less paranoid I am.
He also wanted all vigis stacked on ottox.If Ottox somehow manages to survive the night you've got to lynch him no matter what. It's actually quite possible that we've got vigs thinking "well we probably got a bunch of vigs who want to shoot him so I don't need to as well. No need to quadrupel-stack him". I've been in that situation as well and ended up shooting my #2 reads instead of my #1 reads (AC comes to mind ) because I thought someone else would take care of the #1 read anyways because the guy was pretty much confirmed mafia. Same as with stacking on himself/BC, you get a nice juicy suicide bomber target. Moreover, you could ensure that extra bullets were wasted on Ottox, who you knew to be town. Again, perfectly townie thing to say - we need to have this guy gone before D2, please don't everyone think someone else will take care of this, because that's happened before. But just nagged at the back of my mind.
A lot of the rest of what I didn't like were some conversations between Z-BosoN and Toad. Toad rushing in to start up conversation about vets when Z-BosoN was trying to not be a topic of conversation, couple other instances. But, I'm still thinking Z-BosoN third party, so Toad looks better there.
All in all, I don't think Toad would have asked everyone to stack himself and BC, yet suicide DrH, if he were scum. So I'm townie on him at the moment after a couple rereads, no longer thinking of pursuing him.
|
Just a random mention: I get what you're talking about when mentioning what I said about BC and myself and yeah that could be a set-up, didn't think of it that way 
But the other thing you quoted, me telling people to shoot Ottox no matter wether or not you think he'll be taken care of is something I posted 10 seconds prior to the deadline, for a reason. The moment people read that the deadline was already over and I could not have possibly influenced someone. It was just a "if he survives this night you have to lynch him".
