Hapas case i think is one of the best i have ever seen and marvs refusal to give reads is just the confirmation in my eyes. Despite what he says he is just stalling for as much time as possible in hopes that something happens. I know bullshit when i see and and his request to wait for tomorrow is bullshit. What? How is being @2am in the morning and being pissed not a good excuse to go sleep? This seems to me like a pathetic reason he needed to add to go with his vote. | ||

Marv had plenty of time and instead he decided to shout at hapa and pretend to be mad. Go read hapas case the real reason that marv didnt give reads is he knows everything in that case is basically true. | ||

For now I will tell you you are not in my top 2 reads. Your explanations on Z-Bo were sincere and at some points compelling, and you were willing to admit you were backing off him a little. | ||

Normally I am able to post reasonably often at work because every post only takes some minutes. The posts I need to require are not 5 minute jobs. You hypocritical little nub. | ||

There are some things I agree very strongly. In my laptop, I have some notes on marv, and one of them is "seems detached from the game". I noted this especially during his measly contributions after my mud-slinging with Hapa, and immediately afterwards, when there was a lot going on. Marv's Lack of Suspicion This point, however true, I do not find to be inherently scummy. I think this because of two reasons: 1) I have a bunch of town reads myself. This game it is very easy to make town reads, it seems to me. The people who are in it have very distinct town filter from scum filter. 2) If marv is scum, the last thing he wants to say is that multiple people in a 9-player game are town. People generally take a lot of faith into what he says, and really, if he wants to avert suspicion it doesn't come off to me as the smart thing to do. This of course is a double-edged sword. He can also be "buying" town points by giving townies confidence that he knows what's up. But I'm inclined to think the former point. Also, read this post as carefully as you possibly can and see if it doesn't give sense to it: + Show Spoiler + On October 22 2012 05:50 marvellosity wrote: I'm not exactly sure. A couple of posts later in his filter he explains he was just calling out bullshit and didn't read anything alignment-y from it. But then if that's the case, then the contributions were just pointless and not really contributions. I think Kei is playing pretty scummily - but what gives me pause is in his recent post, he just told town he doesn't really have any reads. Given he's under some pressure, it makes little sense for a scum Kei to do that. But then I find myself going around in stupid little wifom circles. What do you think? I don't have these little niggles about vader, so I'd quite like to hammer him. But we're still going places with discussion so I'm loathe to right now. Z-bo, are you sure that part of your read on Hapa isn't that you're putting him on a pedestal and placing unreasonable expectation from his posting? I'm getting that vibe from what you're posting about him. Over Consistency This point has some strength to it. Even though he was dealing with other aspects of the game, his lack of analysis is pretty weird. Games differ from each other, and I can sympathize with v7. Emotional Detatchment Now this is VERY strong. Like I said earlier, I had that feeling for quite some time, but didn't invest too much in it yet because ... it's marv, lol. Anyways, your point on Kei was spot on. It is pretty clear the difference in attitude he's had in regards to his emotions. His vote on v7 came late and... I dunno. Marv is good in recognizing some town tendencies. Every time we talk he always gives some explanation as to why someone so scummy-looking might be town (look at the level of detail he had on his town read on me, when I mentioned "Go away, shoo") The fact that he lynched v7 without giving any sort of attempt on that seems off... I'm kind of just casually strolling by and throwing that out there, but I don't think this argument is worth a turd, but it's just how I feel, don't jump on my nuts about it. The Insta-lynch Mechanic This is also reasonable in it's own rights. Those two games show a very big contrast in play. Like you said though, this alone isn't inherently a strong tell, games are always under different circumstances, but it's definitely something to note. Conclusion I began to consider marv a possible scum candidate by pure elimination. Like I said earlier, giving town reads this game is pretty hard not to do, and once I removed the people I had slight reads on, the people who remained were: Kei, marv, Drazal and iamp. If you can convince me why Kei is such a strong town read (be as scummy as you can about that, I really want to know), then that really shortens my top suspects list to three people. Of course, odds are that at least one of my town reads are extremely off and that I'll need to reevaluate. But for now, I'm sticking with these. Right now I don't want to lynch marv however, especially due to number 2) of your first (or second? don't want to scroll up  ) point. I kind of feel strongly about this. Let me know what you think of it.With that, my head is turned towards iamp and drazak. I feel less strongly on drazak, because even after reading his filter I was 10x more confused than I was certain about his alignment. Will turn towards iamp's filter when I have more time later tonight, and post what I think. My strongest town reads at the moment are Hapa and austinmcc (yea, green, bold, that much. Sue me). In no way can I view them being scum right now with the amount they have been posting and the sincerity of their posts. I'm of course always scared of hapa, but I'll consider him next only if we face-off again in lylo. | ||

And no I don't think bussing is unreasonable here. I think my case is strong, and I think it's worth it for scum to bus here. However, I don't want to go down that road of analysis until I see marv flip for myself. | ||

Presumably because I made the same case points he did, before he did. Yeah it's not so much your play - it's associative. Bussing is horrendously risky with only 2 scum-members, and if marv is scum, I doubt he'd spend so much time putting heat on you throughout D1 and D2 - ESPECIALLY since you were a target of suspicion. | ||

That's a risky way of thinking. In GSL 1, I spent quite a lot of time being "suspicious" of prplhz, and relying on townies (mainly marv) to shut me down and keep him from getting lynched. But, I would have bussed him in a heartbeat :o | ||

I may or may not reconsider after marv flips with new analysis and all of that, but that's where I stand right now. | ||

But I'm okay with you NOT knowing that I am town. Marv is a tricksy fucker as scum. | ||

That's probably something I'll deal with more tonight or after marv gets lynched. | ||

I'll look more into DP later. If you really think he's scum, go for it. @Hapahauli Thoughts on my thoughts? | ||
