at least I tried to get people off the tunnelling da0d and prplhz all day and wasting the day. I tried to get people to pass the potato around so that this wouldn't happen. I may not have had time to read through everything and flesh out some big thoughts. But I was trying to tell people to get off them and pass the potato. Without the potato passing people didn't have to do anything.
we let hiro do nothing we let kush do nothing and "plan" the rest of the games lynches you'd think ET who had a townie status by almost all would do something other than lolz prplhz scum and post a picture
god damn.
The funny thing is in a mini its more than likely all these guys are scum. so anti town.
oh well, lets learn from it and have a better day 2. I will look into hiro and kush specifcally before nights end. I doubt scum will want to kill me. But just incase.

tunneling is not an inherently bad thing. Another way to phrase it is "focusing on someone you think is scum and getting them lynched". Calling kush scummy for tunneling doesn't make sense. Tunneling is an inherent part of playing the game, unless you enjoy being unfocused.
This is stupid. Anyone who thinks this is legit is stupid.Our tunnel vision on mainly two players and planned future lynches caused discussion. Basically if you want to do this your basing all your lynches 90% on day 1 material.
ET's day 1 voting actions look very town. However, his attitude/posting this game has not been town at all. I was thinking why ET as scum would put all his votes onto hopeless right at deadline to put ON into the finals as scum. The only reasons I can think of are the following.
a) Scum ET looking for town credit being sneaky as shit b) Scum ET/saving Scum hopeless to bus scum ON
|
also I know im all over the place a bit as far as reads go but im not completely sure what to think after what was day 2. Gotta re-evaluate da0d. As well as read into kush/hiro/hopeless.
|
To clarify I'm not saying I think ET is def scum, or that I want to lynch him. I'm just saying my town read on him has dropped to null and anyone else with a town read on him should re-consider or re-read him.

fuck im not going to have enough time to do hiro and kush

Hiro Hopeless austin kush, can't all be scum. I like the above djos points on da0d at the moment. I will have to re-assess my case on Austin based on his more recent actions, scum austin does a decent job at looking town though.
Short version in my noodle before gym and nights end. Hopeless's faking scum thing made no sense to me had me thinking he was scum for a while and then his lurking all of day 2 makes him look worse.
Kush's day 1 play seemed townie, but his day 2 play had scum motivation all over it. Shutting down discussion while being active in the thread, and planning the lynch for the next day. Also making an anti-town potato plan.
Hiro is lurking hard I don't remember what he did day 1 to be honest will have to revisit how he voted. Didn't do anything day 2 other than hold the potato way too long day 2, to start day 2 off on a lulll and shut down discussion, than ultimately pass it to a planning.
Austins more recent posting seems to be getting everyone active and trying to pick up a town that lost a shit load of momentum, im willing to consider he may be town, but this guy is tricky. I think we have better more secure lynches tomorrow though because hes a good asset to the town, and there are people that seem to be more likely to flip scum.
This was all in like 10 minutes so if I fucked anythng up my bad.

also being wrong =/= scum so stop thinking this is so

Everyone pretty much had a town read on ET for the most part because of day 1 voting. I made a case against austin. That could be why ET was killed. Hell I was really surprised ET was not killed day 1.

It's interesting to get the list so people should put them in the voting thread regardless of who is going to be lynched today (according to the lists). With the parallel majority lynch (running until smthing like deadline - 1H), we decide what is the real target of the lynch today and we modify the lists in order to get the right guy lynched. I'm betting right now that it's going to be the same guy anyway.
I propose a majority vote for this idea !
I'm in !
##Vote Hopeless
Nononononononononono
No
no more fucking scummy plans based on the lynch mechanics. Everyone do what they want. But more specifically (lol) put your top 2 as your best scum reads and explain them in detail. (cuz there is probably 2 left) than for the remaining rank them based on how townie you see them. Always put yourself last, not putting yourself last is a scum claim, don't put yourself in another position to save someone.

@Kush, can you explain your read on thrawn please, and explain why I went from your top 3 scum read to one of your best town reads. In detail plox. Bed time for me now.

Why Hopeless1der is Most likely Town
The Facts:
1. Original Name 2. EchelonTee 3. Sandroba 4. EchelonTee last minute vote bombs Original Name to put him into the finals
The Theory:
Alright, I want you to pretend you are on the scum team and think from a team planning and chatting in the obs QT while you read this. Looking at day 1 and the facts we have, I think its pretty obvious hopeless1der is town. I thought he was scummy, for his posts, but after thinking of this and unable to answer the question with any confidence I have come to the conclusion he is town.
In the semi finals, Hopeless1der was set to move on to the finals over Original Name until EchelonTee last minute voted him through. Scum could not have foreseen this happening. Therefore scum wanted Hopeless1der in the finals to be against Sandroba . I think this was an attempt to get a guarenteed mislynch. It is the only situation in my mind that makes any sense whatsoever.
If both Hopeless1der and Original Name were scum, the scum team would have had to make a decision, who was less of an asset to their team. Who could they afford to bus? The obvious answer to this question is Original Name. Why? Because Original Name was guarenteed to be a lynch contender for the rest of the game, and would eventually be killed. However, this was not the case, as scum clearly wanted hopeless1der through, until EchelonTee ruined their plan. Do you think if hopeless1der was scum they would send him against Sandroba hoping he could win out? Very doubtful. It woulda been the same sort of case, "well they both look scummy, not sold on either, so lets be safe and not lynch the vet Sandroba ".
If you cannot make sense of this round with hopeless1der being scum, or think of logical (likely) scum motivation for sending Hopeless1der over Original Name. If it doesn't make sense, than it probably isn't true.
Therefore:
Hopeless1der > Hopeless
Now, I need to re-read the Hopeless1der vs Original Name matchup because I think scum was trying to send hopeless1der through to save Original Name.

With my most recent conclusion, this list looks horribly scummy.
1) 2nd best town read 2) 1st best town read 3) Confirmed Town (from my perspective)
Not sure if really really wrong/bad, or scum trying really hard to push a mislynch.

On October 17 2012 21:02 thrawn2112 wrote: that's very interesting i'm going to read through the ON vs hopeless stuff
so correct me if i'm getting this wrong but the logic works out to be like this:
ON is scum. Sand is town. Scum don't want a scum in the finals. That;s why hopleess was originally set to advance instead of ON. We know this because it was ET who pushed ON into the finals, and ET is town. If hopeless and ON were both scum, then scum should have been bussing ON because he would have been the less detrimental loss. It would have made no sense for scum to push a scum hopeless into finals rather than a scum ON.
Therefore the scum plan was to move hopeless (who is town) into the finals?
Yes this is the correct less pretty TLDR of my post. lol

But I wouldn't do this at all if my lurky scum partner was going to face me in semi-finals.
ConclusionIt would make no sense for him to be scum but he has such an anti-town play that I don't believe him to be town anymore. Right now, I believe he's playing a WIFOMy act ("too scummy to be scum") so I would support an Hopeless lynch. Nevertheless, if you believe he is town, please check his filter and tell me what he has achieved for town.
it doesn't matter what he achieved for town it doesn't matter if hes town or anti town anti-town day 3 is not good basis for a day 3 lynch WIFOM: + Show Spoiler +Do you think 66% of the scum team would be in the top 3 lurkers list?

My only problem now is I don't know who to lynch, but at least this is a starting point for discussion

Guys I was allowed to make that defense on hopeless because it was 90% 10% wifom.
We can't tell if hopeless vs ON was townies voting hopeless through and scum "letting" is happen by being apathetic to vote against it or if it was scum pushing hopeless through voting to save ON. Remember hopeless was one of the bigger cases of day 1, made by a confirmed townie (ET). So using purely vote analysis is oversimplifying things and too wifom. Stop oversimplifying, remember day 2?
So guys go back to making real cases from real analysis. Use the voting wifom as a weak support, and not the main point. The main case on prplhz was voting sandroba and look how that turned out.
As far as I'm concerned im going to be looking at everyone except myself and hopeless for scum. Don't forget to analyse night 1 day 2 night 2 and day 3 (pre/post hopeless town post) to find scum. Don't limit yourself to only 25% of the information.
