I'm voting for kush over prp. kush doesn't seem to have much interest in finding scum - his votes are for people who he thinks are "bad", which is pretty much just abdicating any responsibility for scumhunting. The one vote that he does try to give some reasoning for is nonsense and in itself a contradiction since kush himself is not attempting to find scum - he's content to make one weak read and pick 2 other people for reasons unrelated to finding scum. Show nested quote +He's right, that getting a bye makes it easier for you to be lynched. But he calls it a "disadvantage." Scum would be more likely to think of it this way. He is not approaching the bracket as an opportunity to catch scum, but as a trial to avoid lynch. He has the natural fear of a scum. kushm4sta x1
You need to be aware that that's what he does as town and that's why I semi-jokingly suggested a kush policy lynch. If it matters I think he looks like town if you're going off of meta reads. What do you think about prp?

sandroba I'm hoping you've got something to say along with your recent 2x vote?

I doubled up on djodref, not prplhz. Sandroba was talking about out how much he trusts his hunches so my vote was a test of that

ON why the votes on djoref?
more importantly why 2 votes? djodref was obviously going to move on at that point

Why were you panicking and why did you chose djodref?

Gonna vote for sandroba over kush.
I'm getting a pretty scummy read off of sandroba atm. The majority of his filter is fluff. Then there's this bit:
On October 10 2012 20:40 sandroba wrote:@prpl You are my best scum read so far, how do you feel about that <3
So here he says that prplhz is his best scum read. Not only does sandroba not push to vote prplhz over kush during round 1, he doesn't even mention prplhz again. Why would any townie not want to at least throw 1 vote for their "top scumread?" Why would any townie have a "top scumread" that they never talk about?
He also says:

"Hunches" aren't good enough explanations for me. And this is the 2nd case where sandroba has a read but he's not willing to go the distance to push his votes. He says prplhz is his top scum read, never votes for him or mentions him again. He wants da0ud to go through based on a hunch, and he puts a lot of weight behind the validity of his hunches. Yet he doesn't put enough votes in to push da0ud through. So that's twice where his stated intentions don't match up with his actions.
FOS sandroba

So you wanted me to go through ? Not nice  But I see your point against Sandroba. I just cannot make up my mind on who is the scummiest between him and kush.
No I wanted djodref to go through that's why I voted for him lol. What I was talking about is that sandroba's votes weren't lining up with his words. He put no effort into pushing his top scumread (prplhz) and he didn't have the balls to put enough votes on you to push you through, despite having a hunch after saying that his hunches are usually correct.
So what do you think about kush, and do you have anything else to say about sandroba?

My alien joke.... yes i read the intro. He agrees on how I could have been made a mini-scum without arguing against it. Maybe you don't want me to form an alliance with another townie so soon in the game ?
I'm confused, what is this mini-scum stuff you two are talking about and what do you mean by "form an alliance with another townie so soon in the game?"

Go look at the voting thread, I added a vote for djodref right when I made that post. Sandroba's reasoning for picking da0 over djod was because of a hunch, and I didn't like that as an explanation so I decided to see if he really trusted his hunch as much as he said he did. Apparently he didn't.

On October 11 2012 20:49 sandroba wrote:Right now I'm pretty sure ON is scum. There was no reason to throw those 2 random votes and freak out a ton if you had not read the thread. Voting isn't even mandatory. The only explanation is someone informing him erroneously that he would be modkilled due to the cohost pointing out in the thread he had not voted and since on his mind he had to throw some votes somewhere he just used the opportunity to push some agenda that is yet to be seen by voting the most controversial match up. No reason for him to vote that match up at all if he was town and had no info, since he doesn't even know those players, and I would expect him to throw one vote on someone he knew if he didn't have any agenda.
This is what I was thinking, but he came in after the deadline and gave some reads and promised more so I'm not sure about that MU atm. As of now I'm probably going to vote ON over hiro.

ON Hopeless Da0
None of them used any votes officially, and all have 10 votes remaining. Coming down to the wire any one of them as scum could sway the results.
If they're scum and that's their plan then they're pretty stupid because they'd be put in the spotlight for doing that.

Kush, the thing about ON is his wtf behavior at the deadline. He comes in placing 2 votes on a candidate that was for sure going to be moving on anyway, and I've yet to see him adequately explain why he did so. He said it was a panic vote.... why was he panicking, why pick djo, and why 2 votes? Those are all questions he needs to answer.
|
There's no scum motivation to make a vote that won't affect anything? LOL
|
I guess. But I don't have a solid scum read on either of them so it's gonna come down to what contributions they make from now till deadline. So far all ON has given us is a post about djo vs ET and a promise to talk about more matchups, which he hasn't. ET has been present in the thread D2 and he's voted.... how long are we supposed to let ON get away with being afk and not voting?
|
I probably won't be voting in that MU. My main focus this round is the sandroba vs kush MU and I really want sandroba to go through. I don't care as much about the other matchups so I'm not going to waste my votes on them. I think something feels off about djo's posting. That description I gave of him applied to how he played last game, and I see a notable difference this game. His post just seem more calculated that what I saw of him in newbie 28. Also I don't like his starting posts where he called people scum for talking about voting policy. So if I end up caring about that MU then I'll probably vote for djo.
|
Is that because you think et is scum or because you think djo is town or what?
