Well that was a quick read.

Some thoughts in no particular order first:
-random lynch is stupid. no need to discuss it imo
-it should be clear that if there is only one vote left to hammering someone, you should first off really think through the situation and then give appropiate reasons for the hammer. So please refrain from just sheeping in this instant majority lynch setup.
-I do not like the idea of boxer claiming day 1, and in no way does it confirm him as he could be counterclaimed by scum/boxer/crazy townie or there could be no boxer in the setup anyway. If there is a boxer claim it should be saved until it is of some real use (e.g. lylo stuff)

Now some directed stuff:
@SnB: Why did you suggest random lynch? I do not want to hear why Palmar does it in whatever other game he played. I am interested in your arguments.

@austin: There was no Boxer in GSL1, if I recall correctly it was the doc, parity cop setup.

@phagga: I don't like your opening post.

I am against a random lynch because in an instant majority game it might shortcut the discussion and therefore won't be helpfull. Also, there is the trust issue.

Sinensis, why dont you want the Boxers to claim?

Also, where is Bluelightz? 4am has long past.


you complain about lack of activity in this game, while having been inactive as well. You also jump on another person who has done nothing until then. The post is pretty much devoid of any meaning, besides opposition to random lynches. Nothing that screams scum right now, but still worthy to take a note of.

everyone? Looked like austin and phagga to me. no one else.

Also it is useful to keep timezones in mind, no need to rage at someone not answering your question if he is asleep.

@SnB:

He is as null as you can get. Nothing remarkable in his filter yet, positive thing is he is not shitting up the entire thread like last game.

Would like to get some more activity in here sooo, let's point out something that struck me as really weird:

Sinensis

How did you go from this

I asked why YOU wanted to random lynch not why Palmar sometimes random lynches. Palmar isn't even in this game. Why are you dodging? I'm not going to go searching for a random Palmar post about mafia and I'm not going to let you drop Palmar's name like that's an excuse to do something that is widely reguarded as a bad move.

I've been thinking of Boxer as a mayor type role. Claiming Day 1 is bad cause then Boxer probably dies night 1 and ESPORTS along with it. It's better to save it for later in the game when we're in a pinch.

.... Ugh

So the thing about random lynching is you never want to actually random lynch, it doesn't give you enough info for layer. But what you can do is, if you can get a little momentum going for a random lynch, it freaks scum the fuck out if they don't know what's going on. They know that unless they fuck up, there is little chance for them to get lynched normally on day 1. The information advantage and the ability for their teammates to push other bandwagons guarantee that. So when they think a random lynch might actually happen, they start to behave weirdly and you can pick that out.


Makes sense. I'll try to remember that for future games.




when SnB basically did the same explanation twice in a row? I did not like the idea and Snb's explanation particularly either, but you are spinning 180 degrees like mad. You say it is something regarded as bad move, something you got crucified for and then it is something sane which you will remember for future games?

Also why did you call out austin for saying the random lynch idea is "stupid"? Iamperfection said it too, I did as well. So why do you FoS austin? Only for the Boxer thing? If so that would come down to personal belief as I think there would also be a time when a Boxer claim might be useful for town.

Anyway your on my watchlist now, can't yet decide between bad townie or scum. Off to uni now!

on phone:
@Sinensis:
there is a crucial mistake in your thoughts regarding the boxer claims. you are assuming that the blue roles know who each other are, but they do not, therefore a boxer claim is the "easiest" fakeclaim in the world. There is no way to out a fake boxer without having other blues counterclaiming (or claiming) immediately.
Let's go through your scenarios:

3 boxer claim: I doubt that in a 9 player setup both scum would be fakeclaiming so it would probably at most be 1 scum between them. How do you plan to confirm who? We do not know if we got 1, 2 or 0 boxers, if there is a boxer he also does not know if there is another one.
2 boxer claim: The same problem, boxers don't know if there is another, other blues would know, but they would have to out themselves. How do you want to confirm the fact that there is one or more boxer without blowing the cover of our blues or lynching amongst the claimers?

I would say we discuss further the topic of boxer if a claim shows up, there is not much use to speculate around it right now.

@ottoxlol:
What is your read on SnB?

@thrawn:
from what I got from the last game I played with SnB he is neither dickish nor too unclear as scum. So I would say that the remark from sinensis was unrelated to meta, especially since he was not referring to it anyway.

What strikes you as confusing in the little talk between SnB and me? I would also be interested in your read on ottoxlol.

Hmm...dunno about this vote on Thrawn yet.

Not clearly enough scum motivated in his posts until now for me to join your vote Iamperfection. Not wanting to exonerate him, but he could very well be just doing this as town.

I'm off to bed...was a long day :S

You say there's not enough in my posts that are scum motivated for you to vote for me, so obviously you must think some things look scum motivated. What looks scummy?


First off: way too early for connection stuff, get a red flip (or any flip in that regard) first and then we get link people, but that is not necessarily a scumtrait

What I did not like was this post:

On September 26 2012 07:39 thrawn2112 wrote:

that's what i'm saying. if there's one more vote needed and you wanna make that vote, you gotta say so in advance so the guy up for lynch knows it's time to make his (potentially) last defense


While I am also of the opinion that the hammer-vote has significantly more impact in this game, there is no reason to give out "warnings" since every player should read the thread and be active anyway, looked a bit like giving potential scum more time.

Also the various nitpicking stuff. As I said it is basically things which can be interpreted as scummy but are not necessarily so.


Now on to the stuff that happened while I was busy.
First off I don't want to lynch ottox today. You might say he is scummy for not defending himself and going after other people instead, I believe it to be more a towntrait to continue scumhunting, while being under pressure by yourself. Neither do I want to lynch thrawn or austin. Now who do I want to lynch?
I got several candidates at the moment:
First off Sinensis.

It feels like his cases and suspicions are kind of forced. There was not much of a basis on his suspicions towards austin (imo) and the current target thrawn would read as null-townish to me at the moment. While he has been an active person the real amount of contribution was kind of low, I also did not like the way he kept theorizing about Boxer or not Boxer-stuff when it was not really relevant at all.

Next up phagga:

His votepost really struck me as odd.
He accuses ottox of not playing like a townie should (scumhunting, establishing own innocence) while ottox' defense was precisely scumhunting on his own terms. While it may not be that good at establishing townieness, I think it to be town to look for scum instead of defending yourself all the time.

Last but not least iamperfection should really be stepping it up.
While he did the first vote of the game, it was with rather poor reasoning imo and he has largely gone back to lurking. What are your reads at the moment iamperfection? Still want to lynch thrawn?

I'll be heading out again, but be back before I sleep. Laters!

sooo I am back and I am gonna stick around for about an hour or so before sleeping and dropping my vote (sleeping at deadline).

@Iamperfection:
I do not want to lynch austin, since he reads as town to me. The thing with thrawn is, while there is some stuff that looks bad, it can also be kind of townie, so I am more for keeping him around for at least another day. Also being one of the more active persons, it should get easier to read him as the game progresses. It is poor reasoning since the derpage of doing associative tells that early could simply be town as well. Stupidity is universal and not limited to either alignment. So I do not like to kill him off that in addition to the things I mentioned already.

@Sinensis:
I read that whole dialogue, no need to remind me to do it. Still I did not like how you jumped on him. Point remains.

@phagga:
Who do you want to lynch?

@Bluelightz:
Same question as above. Who is scummiest in your opinion?

Okay fuck this, since they are both not here and I am getting tired, let's do this the old fashioned way.

##vote: phagga

Reasons:
He has very much blended in with the thread, never took a stance that would have stood out from the general direction the thread was heading to. There is close to zero content within his posts (most are short anyway). The first longer post is the more or less useless list of timezones, he admitted himself that talking about it is a good way to appear contributing while not doing it actually.
Also look at the way he shifted his attention around, never called out somebody (besides the "lurkers" at the start) on his own, but piled up onto thrawn and ottox respectively as they started to get pressured by others. As the pressure subsides he pulls back as well.

So I wanted him to give out reads of his own, maybe a target of his own, instead of sheeping others and blending in with thread-sentiment. Looks like he is either not online right now or prefers to lurk. Since I want to sleep soon, I won't stick around all the time until he posts.

I cannot see any good town reasons for trying to blend into the thread and doing nothing besides piling up onto players already under fire. Looks incredibly scummy in trying to be on the "good" side of town, while seemingly "contributing" but actually just coasting along.

I know it's a bit late to propose a new lynch target but phagga reads red to me now.

Hmmm...just going by gut feeling from a single reread, it looks like two townies at each other's throats for the sake of tunneling the other. Thrawn's vote seems a bit oppurtunistic, with 3 votes there was the real possibility of ottox getting hammered with the threadsentiment at that time. especially considering the fact that thrawn had a vote on him as well (still has as a matter of fact)

Ottox' vote could be called omgus or scumhunting, it is kind of nullish. I already said that thrawn can be interpreted as scummy or townie so I am not so sure on it.
I think both of them kind of talked to each other without listening to each other, at least it reads that way to me.
As a result I dunno what to really make of it. Thrawn reads a bit as piling onto ottox while he is pressured, the votepost of his was not too informative, while ottox reads as kind of omgus. Both do not look too good in the exchange.
