Z/Look, this BKE issue seems to get quite a lot of "attention" from other people that are jumping on it. A/Mmhhh, it just seemed like a joke and nothing else, and a derp from BKE's part. B/No, that's not alignment indicative at all, both town and scum can post "jokes" and derp right at the beginning of the game, although I always get the feeling townies do it more often. C/Oh, I think I've only seen more "veteran" players play scum and act jolly and expose themselves right at the beginning of the game (Mattchew, Risen, or Bill Murray and those kind of guys), and for the moment I don't really suspect a scum BKE would do that. D/Well, there's not much to go by now though. E/Xfire seems eager enough to post and seems to do it without fear, but damn some of his "rhyming" posts are just full of fluff. Yikes, I guess if he's really entertained by this posting restriction he could get carried on; but really if you are town Xfire you should not try to post filler just to "satisfy the posting restriction". F/Zoolander, one of the things that caught my eye was Keirathi's behaviour: On October 31 2012 12:22 Keirathi wrote: 'Sup, everyone. Time to get rid of those pesky musicians. G/AH! Crossfire already mentioned something about it. H/But here Keirathi is showing eagerness to start scumhunting, but doesn't follow up with it at all until called out. On October 31 2012 13:33 Keirathi wrote: Keirathi was enjoying some Diablo 3 with a buddy. Looking back over the posts since I chimed it, it doesn't look like theres really a whole lot to comment on. Maybe its just me, but while this posting restriction is very entertaining, its quite hard to say exactly what you mean. I/Cool, maybe the Diablo 3 part is true, it still doesn't justify him not posting any thoughts at all in his 1st post. J/D, I'd have thought a townie so eager to catch scum like he did would spend at least 10 seconds posting what's on his mind at least. K/Eh, not only that, but that above post is just filler, saying there's nothing to go on and saying the post restriction is hard. Fine, it's true that there's not much to go on about, but I expect more from town Keirathi. L/Gah, like in Aperture 2, town Keirathi starts the game with a bang; there he posted an "obviously shitty" case with his first post just to get some discussion going. M/He didn't care about "there's not much to go on about" there, he just cared in sparking discussion. N/In here, Keirathi is just passive as hell, and doesn't seem to care about starting or participating in any discussion On November 01 2012 00:14 Keirathi wrote: Do you care to share why you think it would be a good idea to out our blues early in day 1, Chezinu? O/Joot; here's Keriathi's last post; which again is just filler. P/Keirathi doesn't seem to care about other stuff going on, like the BKE vote, or other people's posts, and just seems hung on Chezinu's claim...? Q/Like, not even that, but even that question of his seems unimportant (since we know most likely Chezinu wouldn't respond it and Chezinu is Chezinu) which makes me wonder why he thought asking that question was better than....I don't know...commenting on anything else that was going on. R/Maybe I'm getting too excited here, but for now I think Kei's the best bet for scum: ##Vote: Keiarthi S/Now, I'd like everybody's opinion on Keirathi. T/Oh, haven't looked into other people either (BH, Hopeless, S&B, etc) but I didn't see anything that caught my attention. U/Pikachu I'd like those guy's thoughts as well. V/Pre-Edit: Xuck, this posting restriction is getting annoying when someone posts right before you :/ | ||

Maybe its just me, having never played with Chezinu, but that was a pretty anti-town plan. Now, I did comment on the BKE thing. On its own, its not particularly scummy. Particularly, though, the fact that he hasn't done any kind of early pressure vote in any of his last 7 town games is a bit weird. Still, even then I only think its minorly scummy and would never be enough to make me vote him. Cay, I fucked up that little bit, you did slightly comment on BKE. Deeply still, you didn't conclude anything with it, you just responded to Adam's meta argument, you didn't talk about the vote itself, you just reacted to Adam's comment. Ehm, your question on Chezinu was "unimportant" in the sense that out of all the things you could be talking about you chose to ask the "unreadable guy" a question he most likely wouldn't respond. For it also seemed very safe to ask. Granted it's not that your question was "scummy as fuck", it's the fact that you bothered asking that question and not do something else, like starting discussion, comment about other things people said. Hhh to me it seemed "safe" of you, specially since you didn't follow up with anything else after asking that question. I'll wait for other people's thought on this though; it's still too early in the day. | ||

Very suspicious that he claims "oc I was joking" but leaves his vote where it is. Which choice (between leaving the vote or unvoting) would be "going back on your word" to BKE? Jolly, didn't notice that. Kay, that's just too clumsy to do if he's town. Like, I just came from a game in OMGUS where a scum did exactly that (made a "joke" vote, spent like 10 posts explaining how that vote was a joke but never unvoted), so I can see something like that happening again. Ministry, however he still has time to explain himself; if he goes AFK and keeps his vote on Xfire it'd certainly be scummy as hell. | ||

Oh, BH once you come back from your 1 hour detention, could you post your thoughts on Keirathi? Perhaps or you still think Adam is scum for that 1st post of his? Query him you did but I don't really see why your vote is on him; I'll check it out again though | ||

Surely you think his comments about BKE are scummy perhaps? Titanium I haven't seen you comment on those and you just seemed to forget Adam even existed, even though you still have your vote on him | ||

Xena, you make some good points, although you seem to be ignoring his pressure of BKE; do you think him pressuring BKE looking at his past games and shit would be "a player who's trying to reason things out and learn" or not? Zoo, again because you haven't mentioned that. Also, again I'd like your thoughts on Keirathi. Boldly I feel that he hasn't done much ever since I called him out, he just kept hung on the Chezinu issue yet again and posting minimally yet again | ||

Chicka-bow just in case I know Keirathi is in a 1 hour detention right now, I meant his posting before that. I assume the "EBWOP" thing doesn't count towards the restriction, right? :/ Dandruff, well, this is getting boring now. Earpiece in my ear, and I'll be going to uni in 1 hour or so, and I'll be working on a project now so bon voyage. Foreplay, I'll check this thread every once and then until then anyways. | ||

O/Macho, I didn't really pay attention to his "he posts big questions" argument, but rather that "Adam is fearless and forceful in his 1st posts" argument. P/Ni, it didn't convince me that much because of that BKE issue I said before BH seemed to have ignored, but it's a little bit interesting if he is willing to expand on it. Q/Oh, when I played with Adam I didn't really see him being such a "huge force" in town (I think I played with him as town..? I don't really remember, I did play with him as scum I think) so Adam not behemently trying to fuck scum is not really something that worries me. R/Pibe, what kind of worries me is that he just got hung up with BKE as well (kind of how Kei is hung up with Chezinu right now); although he has time to contribute more though. Shhh, it'd be nice if people didn't make instant consecutive posts when they ask someone else for a response >_> (Ta-ta, although that's kind of what I did previously...ehmm...huh...so nevermind <_<) | ||

Vault this kid into detention please so that he's forced to stop dicking around and go the BH route, or play the game properly. Xtention of this would be to allow everyone (looking at you BH) to just throw in a random word that starts with the applicable letter. Zap, that's because when I already have the post made someone else ninja's me so I'd have to redo the whole post again. And I don't really give a crap to change a whole post I made (which did follow the restriction) every time someone ninja's me. But, if the hosts say it's not allowed then I'll be in detention and not do it. Can't say it happened yet so I think it's valid, at least if my previous post follows the restriction. Dear BH...are you serious? Elementary, I did read that post of yours. For what I know though, it's that you did keep up with the restriction later, for instance these posts: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=378652¤tpage=9#173 http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=378652¤tpage=9#178 http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=378652¤tpage=10#188 Given that, I thought you started to care about the restriction again since you were following it. Highlighting you not giving a crap about the restriction again was a remark about that. Is this really enough reason for you to think I'm scum? Joke, at least try harder dear, FoSing me because of a remark about you not caring about the restriction is stupid. Know, although I can see you making stupid cases like this as town. Like right now I'm leaving so don't have time to check you BH, I'll do it later when I come back. Making statements like "lol I won't comment on Keirathi since my Adam case is the bestest" is stupid as well; it's D1 and we need info and contributions from people; knowing people's stance on Keirathi, seeing if they have more info to share about him that can help us figure out his alignment even more, etc. | ||

I don't know how this seems to be dogmatically in favor of using the 1-hour wait method at all times or the rhyming method at all times. You should read my posts more clearly and think a bit harder about the game. Yeah, I guess it doesn't mean you'll dogmatically be in favour of using the 1-hour method at all times, I may have misunderstood that... ....so? I don't get the point here. It's not something important (at least not to me) and it's not something that I would even dwell on so I don't get how I should "think a bit harder about the game" about something mostly irrelevant that I just made a remark on. You are grasping at straws there BH Part of the reason I'm on your ass is that you're not playing like you normally do. This focus from you, and the lack of serious pressure on multiple targets, that's not like you. The gonzaw I know, when he plays town, has fullisades of questions for everyone. Why just this one Keirathi case? Where's your usual constant interrogation and probing of everyone in the town? I remember your posts as being kinda annoying and having formatting issues, and maybe being unfocused, but also being unrelenting in their pressure on multiple targets. What gives? First of all...no, that wasn't "part of the reason" you were on my ass and if it was you made a pretty poor job of pointing that out. Second of all...I don't know? I don't know what you seriously expect me to answer. I'm playing like I play, nothing more; I don't honestly see any difference like you are pointing out. I'm getting the feeling there's not much to go on about though, and I think I came into the game kind of late and could only post a few times with the people that were active (you and Xfire mostly) so that may be why you are "worried" about it. If you don't mind I'll just ignore this for now. If you have any specific stuff about me that worries you point it out so I can clear any misunderstandings. Anyways BH, I don't really get why you somehow got all pissy about me for some irrelevant reason, and after I call you out...you somehow backtrack on it and completely change the reason why you are suspicious of me? Not only that but the tone of your post is just....like apologetic...? I don't really know the word, but you are asking me why I'm "not playing like town" in your mind? You very well know that if I was scum I can answer anything you want me to answer and "satisfy" that question of yours. It doesn't really feel consistent with your "aggressive macho guy" persona you put when you FoS people or when you even FoSed me before. This inconsistency is weird.....but meh. You seem genuinely interested when you post and I don't think you'd explain yourself so much as scum, which makes me doubt you being scum at the moment. You could still be scum but I can't see it much at the moment. Again, about your Adam case it seems interesting but unless you expand on it I can't see it. It's interesting because yeah, Adam hasn't done much at the moment other than pressure BKE and that seems suspicious, but he's not "100% confirmed scum" because of that flimsy meta argument you made. Maybe you get it better since you played with him in those games but I don't see it. On November 01 2012 08:33 Adam4167 wrote: Well this got interesting. Blazinghand, you are cherry picking my game history to support your meta case. X marks the spot. You ignore more recent games such as Aperture Mafia and wiggles mini mafia II - where I did not launch into cases with my first post - both of which I was town. You're taking a year old game, my FIRST game, and a post that I later admit to being drunk when writing and use that as evidence for aggression which you believe is lacking in this game. Zebras. I handled you more carefully this game because I've seen your horrendous tunnel-vision in TL51 - something that was a large distraction to town. ...however Adam, that doesn't excuse you to just post to "defend" yourself and not contribute much more. I believe more than 1 hour has passed so you can now post in here, but you haven't. You also fail to comment on the BKE issue which you participated before, yet somehow you can only find time to "defend" yourself from BH's accusations. Why not do more? Saying "there are other games where I was town and haven't done much" doesn't mean you are justified in not doing much this game. On November 01 2012 07:04 Keirathi wrote: Too many posts not following alphabet guidelines, so I'm not sure what letter we're on. But BH: why so willing to comment on basically everything else except gonzaws points about me? Hmm.... Don't really know what to think of this (Keirathi basically wants people to check him out?). Keirathi why do you want BH to comment on the stuff I said about you? You are playing differently that in previous games I've played with you, and you still don't seem to contribute anything of your own other than slightly "pressure" some people (Chezinu and BH now apparently). If you are town you would really need to step up your game, because it's making me hard to think of you as a townie that cares about this game right now. That comment of yours seems weird for a scum to make....but damn I've seen scum post weird comments before (even in our last game) so I don't really want to take it into account, at least if you don't contribute or do something other than appear you are active by posting every once and then. In Aperture Mafia 2 you were like confirmed town in my mind in very very little time by the way you posted, and in Can't Believe I remember you being part of discussions and stuff early on (even if you were "fluffy" or wishy-washy at times which made me FoS you initially...but you became pretty "obvious" town in D2 and D3). I don't see you doing either here, you are not even close to making me consider you town which is what makes me worried as well. There are some other players I'd like more stuff on. Like S&B, Mementos or that Django guy (or even Chezinu). Hey S&B, do you plan on doing something? I see you talk about BKE and posting stuff like "I'm very wary of people fucking up on purpose! *wink* *wink* " but there's not much substance in there. Please don't turn up like in Aperture Mafia 2 :/ (i.e useless all game) ..or worse...scum About BKE,....well at least he changed his "joke" vote and voted someone else with some reasoning, although it seems like an OMGUS. I'm not too sure, he seems too "aggressive" to be scum in my mind, specially with that "joke" vote of his initially. Meh I'll look at him tomorrow. Also yeah fuck this restriction, at least for this post. | ||

Like, fuck, I'm not very sure who is scum at this moment, but I have to vote someone. Mementos seems only concerned with his vote on Xfire and nothing else and it wasn't a strong vote either (didn't even have reasons for Xfire being scum, just "unreadable"). No, like, why the fuck haven't you made a proper case on him yet? Or are you just "policy lynching" him like BH said? Possibly, he's just justifying himself with "oh I don't have time" or "oh I'm at the gym" when he spends the time he's here only defending himself about his Xfire vote. Que? Right, fuck gotta make this quick. So, damn; I think Keirathi is the most likely scum out of all of them.Oh fuck this post restriction I won't make it in time. He has done 0 scumhunting at all this day other than making "probing" questions to players like Chezinu or BH. He wasn't part of any discussion, and worst of all didn't seem to care. He didn't even seem to care to defend himself against my points. Again, the main point is that he doesn't care about the game and is not contributing. Again, in Aperture 2 or even Can't Believe, he was part of every discussion and would have never acted like he's doing here at all. Yeah I think he should be today's lynch. But fuck I won't be around here for that, so I hope you guys can make something out of this D1. I wouldn't mind Adam or Mementos lynched. Adam hasn't done anything other than park his vote on Mementos. He posted good reasons to pressure him but not to base a whole lynch vote on him and disappear. Again taking into account him only "pressuring" BKE earlier and nothing else. He isn't pushing Mementos nor doing anything else productive. Mementos made a "bad" vote on Xfire and doesn't seem to care to be part of any other discussion or scumhunting. He hasn't even moved his vote from Xfire or talked about Adam or Keirathi or any of those guys (that I remember). I'm still not sure about BKE, since I can't really see a scum "noob" BKE make such an aggressive "joke" vote very early into the game. I'd prefer him not being lynched today but fuck it I'm not sure fuck running out of time. Also we can lynch that Django guy as well he's not doing anything at all and fucking parked his vote on Chezinu. Well fuck I gotta go. | ||

Just finished reading the thread. OKay, first of all Keirathi isn't getting lynched today at all, so: ##Unvote: Keirathi Anyways, it seems this lynch is decided by me today, so I'll try not to be biased with "gut feelings" and shit like I'm used to. Anyways fuck, this is not that easy decision after rereading the thread. Mem seemed to step up his game a little bit with his Keirathi case and BKE seemed to go mad. Now I'm not that sure if BKE's "aggressiveness" is a town tell to be honest. Reminds me of ghost in Aperture Mafia 2, being "aggressive" and shit but making stupid votes, and purposefully acting stupid to convince us he's town. Anyways damn getting fewer time. I'm not entirely sure who to lynch of them too, I'm confused about that right now and the pressure of the lynch isn't making that any simple. Some of BKE's posts are just scummy as fuck, like this one: On November 02 2012 04:22 BroodKingEXE wrote: Bottom part is so scummy, because you basically say your vote for Keir isn't pushed by your case but by the lack of Xfire's scummness. Cause of this, it shows me that you have no confidence in this case about Keir, because you had to justify a vote change. Dingaling shouldn't even be included in this post as you already have two scum reads, why would you support a policy lynch when you have two scum? Eyeing one of Hopeless posts, I noticed I hadn't unvoted and voted is that what you guys are saying Im am being hypocritical on? Some people pointed it out, but he seems to not really get the point at all and is a very fucking bad reason to vote Mementos. Not only that but he was absent at all times. Hmm....I could still see him as stupid town but he has very anti-town behaviour to be honest. I didn't really pay attention to his case on Hopeless since I thought it was just for pressure but apparently he believes it in. I don't see anything scummy in Hopeless nor I dont' see him pushing BKE scummy and it doesn't feel like BKE believes his own case on Hopeless. Even now he just jumped on Mementos who had a few votes on him and ignored Hopeless at all. I think that makes him more likely scum than Mementos. Although Mementos did vote BKE too and could have done it just to avoid getting lynched and not just because he thought BKE was scum, but BKE's vote was much more scummy to be honest. Pre-Edit: On November 02 2012 09:46 Keirathi wrote: Give me a little credit. Had something come up right at the end of my time out, and I had to leave for a while longer. I'll consolidate onto BKE, because I believe that the case against him is stronger than the "case" against you. Just to be clear, though, that whole post was me committing to my reads. ##Vote: BroodKingExe Ah fuck Keirathi hammering BKE? Argh, does that make BKE town? THe wagon on Mementos was shifty with votes like Chezinu and BKE but this doesn't feel right. Fuck it ##Vote: Mementos I'm not too sure about this but this gives me a very bad feeling. Keirathi comes out of nowhere right now only to vote BKE at the last minute? When Keirathi could have voted BKE at any time in the day? No, BKE can't be scum now. I'm not too sure about mementos but he's a better lynch than BKE now. Yeah I flipflopped about it even in this very post honestly I prefer to take a chance with Mementos Ah for fucks sake fucking restriction SOMEBODY SWITCH TO MEMENTOS Ah goddamit | ||

Yea, my vote was at the end of the day, but its not like I didn't say I wasn't going to consolidate if I needed to. The only other option was to just not vote and get modkilled; is that what you wanted? I don't understand the faux anger. How about not coming with a "ninja-vote" right before the deadline and vote before that? When I was skimming the thread I was too busy trying to figure out the Mementos/BKE issue so I didn't pay much attention to it, but I kind of thought you were getting modkilled/replaced like that Djingu guy. Why didn't you vote BKE when you made that huge post saying you wanted to lynch BKE for instance? Why did you wait until the last second to vote? Adam, I know the restriction fucked things up so I decided to make a post as I went along and post it right before the deadline It's a huge post that's there at the deadline so I can't believe you could fucking miss it On November 02 2012 12:01 Adam4167 wrote: Lets take a good look at what just happened regarding Gonzaw: His reads are as follows - So to summarise - happy to lynch Myself or Mementoss, claims to not be sure on BKE, leaning 'noob' town.

Then he proceeds to get himself an hour timeout, but keep in mind this does not exclude him from voting at any point. Complying with his ban, he falls silent. He resurfaces at 09:41 in the voting thread to unvote Keirathi: This proves that he is still around, and yet he still keeps his vote on Mementoss withheld. Five minutes later, in comes Kierathi and votes for BKE. Finally, at 9:56, Gonzaw smacks his (now useless, as Mementoss would need 6 votes to pass BKE) onto Mementoss, avoiding a modkill and wasting his vote. You are just retelling what I did. How's this any helpful? He could not vote against BKE to save Mementoss because he had previously said that he found him to be 'noob' town, leaving him with this as his only course of action to avoid hanging his teammate or a modkill for failure to vote. I was planning on voting BKE until I saw the Keirathi vote after F5ing it and after that I didn't really know what to do, but after that I thought BKE had much more chances of flipping town considering those circumstances (Keirathi hammering him right before the deadline when he could have voted him way before, like when he made the case against him). Right now you are using confirmation bias. You are assuming Mementos is scum and I are scum and making up a story because of that. That's not how it works Adam. Scum. He dies tomorrow. No. Every single time I'm town people FoS me out of nowhere but I don't get misslynched and I don't plan this game to be my first misslynch either, so you better come up with better reasoning other than just restating what I did and making wild speculation while conveniently ignoring the posts where your theory falls apart. Also Adam, you were here right before the deadline (you posted that "He won't but you will" comment). Why didn't you try to convince other people to lynch Mementos? Why did you step aside in the sidelines and watch town destroy itself and then as soon as the deadline comes you accuse us of the BKE misslynch like you had nothing to do with it? You werehere and did nothing.

You think BKE is town but you don't even try to stop his lynch, even though you saw him having 3 votes and apparently you knew Keirathi would come and place his 4th vote on him (since you accuse me of the same thing). The guy you think is town will likely get lynched (again because of the Keirathi vote, at least in your mind) and you do nothing, absolutely nothing but sit there and wait for BKE to get lynched. If you cared about the lynch you'd be here convincing people to switch onto Mementos and away from BKE. You would be convincing BH to vote Mementos instead of BKE (since BH was active all the time) but you do nothing. You don't even try to convince me, the guy that had the "definitive vote" (at least until Keirathi came back) to vote Mementos either. That's apathy to the lynch Adam, and it's what scum do. Right now you think I'm scum out of a sudden because I voted after Keirathi, conveniently ignore the post where I share my thought process with town later (unless you think I made that post in 2 minutes after I voted Mementos), and post no reasoning behind me being scum at all other than that fallacy of yours. Your only contributions on D1 where some slight pressure on BKE which you then completely ignored and just brushed him off as "town", and a small case on Mementos. The worst of all is that you didn't even push Mementos that much, you just made some comments on his Keirathi case, made that inital case of yours and parked your vote on him and that's it, you made very little effort in getting lynched even when there was a possibility he wasn't lynched (for instance when you were active in that last 1 hour). There's no way you wouldn't try to push a Mem lynch right before the deadine if you really cared to lynch him as town. For D2 if I'm still alive I'll be looking at Adam, Mementos and Keirathi. If I'm optimist then all 3 of them are scum....although meh I get the feeling that may not happen (just like in every game of mine where I fuck up those multiple-reads), but I think at least 2 of them are scum. If they were all scum the lynch would see kind of weird....although it'd make sense. Adam would bus Mementos early in the day, but once votes keep piling on him he wouldn't make a 180º and decide to lynch BKE instead of Mem because he even said BKE was likely town. So he keeps his vote on Mementos but doesn't really try to get him lynched, which is what happened in that last hours of D1. Maybe in their QT they told Keirathi not to vote BKE and to have him hammer him in the end so Adam doesn't have to unvote Mem and hammer BKE (which would "out" him as scum). Since Keirathi already said he'd prefered a BKE lynch over Mementos (and said Mem was town I think..?) he could brush off the suspicion later, and Adam would help keep suspicion off him like he's doing now (shifting the suspicion back to me). It certainly makes sense to me, although it's kind of convoluted. Adam: What I said above Keirathi: What I said earlier. I don't see him care so little as town. I don't see him making his vote 10 freaking minutes after the deadline and not before (to pressure, to make people know who he wants lynched, etc what normal townies do). His demeanor kind of "seems" townie in a way, like he doesn't care if people FoS him....but that play is completely different than what I've seen from him before (he's VERY active in discussion) and he wouldn't just not care about anything like he does now. Right now he seems to not give a fuck and just coast through the game, which town Keirathi would obviously not do. Maybe it could be attributed to him finding the restriction too difficult to handle so he wouldn't try that much. But if that was the case he would at least go the BH path (not give a shit about the restriction) or explicitly tell us he's not contributing much because of the restriction, so I don't think that's likely (plus if that's true he should start being heavily active on D2 and contributing, which would be basically the only way to convince me he's town, so he would have no problems doing that if he's town, right?). Mementos:Although I'm not too sure about him being scum like I said in my deadline-post, Adam and Keirathi being scum point towards him being scum by association in my mind. He didn't really contribute much other than the Xfire vote and the Keirathi case (and FoSing BKE later). Again his XFire vote was "bad", and maybe his BKE vote was OMGUS to avoid getting lynched. I didn't really see him push Keirathi that much after he made that case either. He's likely scum because of that There are also some other players that are shifty, like the Django guy who got replaced, and now I'm a little worried about Xfire. XfireHe seemed eager in early D1 and I thought he was likely town because of it...but damn his activity and contributions heavily dropped from mid-D1 ever since. Yes, he spent most of his early posts pressuring some people and "posting rhymes" which is not alignment-indicative (although gut feeling tells me townies are more likely to do that)...but then he did almost nothing at all. He only parked his vote on Mementos and disappeared for the rest of the day, and now that he shows up he doesn't contribute anything relevant at all :/ My gut tells me he's might be town because of him being so eager in early D1....but meh I don't really know if I should trust that. I hope to see more contributions from Xfire on D2. Anyways, off to eat, be back later. P.S: Wait, so these points really do matter? I can give my points to S&B or someone else if someone can explain me exactly what they are used for, how they work, etc. Of course the guy should be townie of course...but I don't have any reason to doubt S&B being town at the moment so I could entertain giving him points. | ||

If you are scum you can easily tell everybody to "give you points" and then keep them or do something anti-town with it and we would never know about it. It could even be a ruse and, like the show states, the points don't matter and you are making a big deal out of it just to spread confusion. It's unlikely but it's possible, and I can't know if that's what's happening or not | ||

You still haven't responded to BH's case (or my addition points), btw I kind of forgot about them (with the whole BKE/Mementos thing), but I already told BH that in an early post. If you guys are just "oh gonzaw doesn't seem like town, he doesn't seem to play like I know he'd play as town" I'll ignore it. People do that shit against me every single game. Again, read Aperture 2 where like half the game FoSed me for similar reasons. It's also something I can't respond to (the "you are not playing like you do as town!") because I am playing like I do as town so I can only think you guys are not reading very well or want to find any reason whatsoever to FoS me. Why did you spent so much time tunneling day 1, when your townie meta is to be suspicious of EVERYONE while gradually making town reads? If you look back I wasn't in the thread a long time. When I woke up and started the game it was pretty late (few hours from mid-D1). I thought you were scum and wanted people's opinion on it, but well instead got into an argument with BH about Adam and BH making that stupid "case" on me. After that I went to sleep and the next day I went to uni. You can't blame me for there not being anything interesting in the game and there not being active people to ask questions and pressure (when I was active only BH, Xfire and Hopeless were active I think, except that time mementos popped up). I also clearly am not "tunneling" you if you read my posts correctly. Saying that is a lie, I never tunnel anybody as town(i may be biased though, but I seriously don't think I've tunneled people for the sake of it, unless they were scum), just find them scummy as fuck and want peoples opinions on said player to make up my mind, and post my thoughts on said player and vote the player most likely to flip scum. Also, I suggest you read http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=376602&user=265522 Hell, you should probably read Aperture again too, and compare it to Liquid City which was running at the EXACT SAME TIME. Aperture was an anomaly in my play style, not the norm. Hmm, okay I'll read them. I never read those games in Can't Believe and Aperture and didn't have much trouble figuring you out as town , but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt here. @S&B: What do you think of Keirathi, and also Mementos considering what happened on D1? If you also find Adam's "theory" "interesting" then again, read the post where I post my thought process about it (since I couldn't post in-thread because of the restriction). If you have any doubts about it ask, but if you find Adam's theory interesting at least consider the post he conveniently ignored. I take it you are still serious with the points thing? If what BH said is true and you can use the points to kill someone I may consider giving them to you if you discuss with us who to shoot. | ||

Outing myself and Mementos at the end of D1 wouldn't have been that bad....if you know, we could have killed 3 townies on N1 (H1 didn't have vet protection on N1 since he gave points to BH right? So he would have died). Also iGrok, I really want to know how you planned this game to play that doesn't end in town winning by a landslide. Tell me what would have happened in this scenario: H1 and BH claim Ryan and Colin as soon as N1 starts and claim they are confirmed town to each other and ask everybody to give points to them. After they get like 6000 points from everybody, they convert them ALL to KP so they have like 5 vig shots to use on anybody they want and they obliterate scum on N1 if they have decent reads. Or just ask everybody for points, buy vet+mirror and with the rest of the points buy KP. If scum shoot them then scum kill themselves because of mirror, and if they didn't doublestack them they survive because of the vet shot If scum don't shoot them, they proceed to lynch whoever they want on D2 (since they are confirmed town basically), and then again ask everybody for points on N2 to repeat the process Because really, they could have gotten like 6000 points out of everybody and their abilities costed like 500 points each wtf? I'd like to see the full list of what they could buy. Like....yeah we were lucky S&B claimed first and neither BH nor H1 tried to get people to give them points instead Had the reverse happened (which is what BH and H1 should have done imo) this game could have been over by D2 with BH/H1 using like 10000000 vig shots on everybody that's not them lol | ||

(besides the troll $100 game). That's enough to buy a vet ability every single day. If they claim and become "confirmed town", then they effectively become invincible confirmed townies basically. They would be unlynchable because they are confirmed town to each other (therefore could only be scum together), and they claimed 2 blue guys and were uncc'd, and there would be no way scum had 2 blue fake-claims like that and out themselves like that basically. THey would be unkillable at night since they could get a vet ability every single cycle. Not only that but they'd have points to spare to buy mirror or other shit as well to make them even more unkillable at night or at least if they are killed they take one scum with them. SO town could have had 2 confirmed invincible super townies on N1......or am I missing something? | ||

Also if you have mirror it wouldn't have any effect right? The RB is done back at scum who are RBed and can't shoot you. Again, yes we could double-shoot you but: 1-We wouldn't know if you had enough points to get vet status..since remember we needed 1500 points to do so and had no idea it costed 500 instead for you guys 2-If you get mirror then we suicide into you basically. We can double-stack 1 of you guys, but in that case one of us dies as well and there's still another confirmed super invincible townie left, and since we have 1 less scum we can never use 2 KP again basically (and if nobody gives us points we could never afford the 3750 points for a new KP either) Also you guys could get a RB as well (you could get like 3-4 RB if you wanted) and RB who you think is scum who will give out the scum kills. Wait.....#involve only costs 500? Why didn't both of you use involve on D2 for instance? You either confirm scum or get 2000 instead which you can use to use #involve again on D3 like 4 times (both of you each) to basically out the whole scumteam. Or was it only one-shot? Also double points was only 250? Like....here: On N1 both of you: -Use 500 to buy vet -Use 500 to buy 2 double points -As soon as D2 starts both of you use 2 double points Then you'd get four times as many points! Both of you would get 4000 points in the D2 game and with 8000 points you can do whatever the fuck you want! Is it me or did BH and H1 like severely underperformed with their powers? At least considering all the possibilities they could have gotten. | ||

How many points? Okay that may have stopped the "get 8000 points on D2" deal, but they still could spend at least 1000 points each night, therefore could get veteran+mirror each night and be invincible confirmed townies that can do whatever they want with the game | ||

Like how would the buzzer game work for instance? Anyways had I known we wouldn't get any KP on N1 I'd have hammered Mementos when I got there into the thread (I was thinking about doing that but Mem really wanted the 2 KP and I thought I'd wager "outing" both of us for 2 KP and maybe the possibility of swinging the lynch somewhere else since there would be less townies around). Also if it wasn't for that fucking restriction I could have worked something out to not "out" me and Mem like it happened there :/ I tried to "look" as townie as possible with that last post....but yeah if you see me saying "I wouldn't mind a Mem lynch" and then I don't vote him and vote him after Kei comes back it does look shifty as fuck no matter what my thought process would be at the moment. I.e if I was town I'd look shifty as fuck too no matter what I was thinking or posted afterwards because the action itself was shifty, no matter how I would justify it or do it (since I couldn't post). | ||

You pressure multiple people and post big old multi-pronged walls of text as town. I mean yeah that thing with the fake bad post and the voting at the end of D1 did you no favors but you were my top scumread. Before that all the accusations against me were pretty weak to be honest. "You are not pressuring many people!" is not strong at all and I can easily push it apart by saying "I'm busy" or "there wasn't much going on when I was posting" (which was true, when I was posting only Xfire and BH were active, then I went to sleep and went to uni almost immediately). I think even Keirathi was having second thoughts about it at some points. If it wasn't for the end-D1 thing I don't think I'd have much trouble staying alive. ...well, yeah you were vig and maybe that "weak" reason was enough for you to think I was scum and vig shoot me. However when I play I tend to ignore the possibilities of the single guy that thinks I'm scum but can't convince others being vig and shooting me (if not I'd get pretty paranoid each game). If you think I'm scum but can't convince others then I don't think I'm in any danger (or if I think you could not convince others or the reasons for that I can refute). If you weren't vig I think I could have gotten away with the end-D1 thing too, if I put quite an effort in it. If it wasn't for the restriction it would have been easier though :/ One positive thing about this game: Watching Keirathi get mindfucked and angry at BH in that last day | ||

Basically that's like 24 hours where I only made 1 post, and it was entirely due to IRL stuff (sleep+uni). If I had more time I'm sure I could have played like you expected me to do (i.e pressure more players, post bullshit wall of text cases, etc) but sadly I didn't have time. I can't say something similar would have happened if I was town, but it could have (i.e me making a case against someone I think is scum early, not having much people to talk about, then going to sleep and to uni and miss all D1). | ||

You were acting 99.9% differently than you have in any recent town game, and spent almost all of your time tunneling me. Town gonzaw is suspicious of everyone until he has a good reason not to be, and even if he's fairly sure of a scum read, he still questions the shit out of other people. Basically, your play this game was much, much, much more similar to your play in Liar Game than it was in any of your town games that I read. If this is true.......then why the hell am I FoSed in every game I'm town?  Come on guys, if you use my meta to "instantly" pin me as scum then at least use it to instantly pin me as town as well :/ That's not fair \: lol but joking apart, I think some of it had to do with the circumstances (i.e me not being able to be more time in the thread trying to make you doubt your suspicion on me) and maybe you guys putting too much attention on me | ||

Edit: In a way, I almost consider talking about IRL excuses "cheating" in the sense that it's a non-defense that people for whatever reason accept. If I'm ever away from the thread for a period of time, I never give a reason for it. Mafia is about mafia, and that's it. My IRL excuse is for not being able to play better as scum to convince you otherwise mostly. I.e if I wasn't AFK IRL I could have done things to make you stop having that "top scumread" on me (ie focus on other players instead of Keirathi, or whatever). Of course if it wasn't for that end-D1 thing I'd use put an IRL excuse like I said earlier. In anybody else's mind except yours and maybe Keirathi it could have been a valid point against your argument ("gonzaw is not pressuring much people"->"it's because gonzaw wasn't around and when he was there was not many people to pressure"). You may not have bought it, Keirathi may not have bought it, but as long as the rest of the players buy it (which I think would have been likely) then it wouldn't matter. It would also have been enough to strike a little doubt in your head (you'd tell yourself "maybe he's right? Nah he's scum.....what if he isn't?) and that'd be enough for me. Take SoaF mafia for instance. On D1 I was FoSed by like a hundred people for meta reasons and shit, but once those people were dead/changed their mind I became like a "confirmed townie" on D2 and onwards. I don't really care for getting FoSed on D1 for "bad" reasons (i.e reasons that I can refute and maybe make people change their mind about it) since I have the chance to refute them, adjust my play accordingly (if I can though, at times I just don't give a fuck ) and make people forget about it later.It may or may have not happened this game, but well again the whole end-d1 thing happened and you vig shooting me :/ | ||

I don't normally FoS you but I've obsed enough games with you in it to know that you don't play like a spear, you play like a trident. Or a ball of needles. You poke a lot, and at a lot of people. You have to at least *try* to emulate that as scum, or at least recognize that you weren't doing that this game, or your scum play simply won't improve. That's my advice.. I can't really be a "trident" when I'm scum since it might work against our scum agenda. For instance I wouldn't really want to pressure Mem or S&B too hard on D1, which I think I would have if I was town. I also wouldn't want to give town too much info if I end up dead and flip scum, since it might make it easier for them to figure out my other scumbuddies. Again....take into account that people thought Stutters and Xfire were scum at points and were kind of suspicious because I never pressured them that much. Would that have happened if I "pressured" them like you wanted me to do as town? I don't think so. Maybe trying to balance these things out didn't work that well for me in this game, but I was hoping the "difference" in play was not that big to warrant me getting lynched soon But yeah I'll say that my town play is kind of hard to emulate for me as scum (at least taking this game and Bureaucracy into account) since i really try to establish myself as town in those games. ...too bad it doesn't seem to work when I'm town and neither when I'm scum, huh | ||

Also again could you tell us what the point threshold was? It wasn't 1700 because BH had vet status and vigged me on N1. I also wonder....what if people started giving BH and S&B points but BH hit the point threshold while S&B didn't? Wouldn't that out S&B? Also why make town's powers 1/3 the price of scum powers? Is it just because you assume the other 2 scum will always give their points to the other scum? Isn't this a bad assumption? The other 2 scum may need spare points to give to other townies for instance to blend in as audience members for instance, and if scum start dying then S&B would not have the same chance to buy stuff as town, even though perhaps at the beginning with 3 scum he may have that chance. Why not make scum powers just like x2 of town ones? Or why not give them a completely different set of skills with different prices (that depend on scum alone) instead of giving them town's powers? I mean, S&B would never buy stuff like Track or the DT stuff unless he's forced to or something. Or at least make town's powers more expensive. Make all powers at least 1000 points, so when they win a game they have to decide which one to get. Don't let them get vet every single night and any other stuff they want, make them choose "Do I choose vet tonight or mirror/vig shot/DT?". The vet stuff maybe make it one-shot as well so they can use it once in the game. That way they are not invincible every single night. Also make the KP WAY MORE expensive please (to town at least). Each performer just needs an extra 200 points to get a KP every single night. I mean there were four town vig shots in a 13-player game (me, adam, chezinu and S&B the last day). That's insane. | ||

lol at that Adam vig shot Really town had the chance of fucking us in the ass hard and win by a gigantic landslide. I mean they could have even just used DT abilities on N2 onwards instead of just randomly choosing who to shoot and S&B would have had like 0% chance to win. Or again not let all points go to S&B on N1, or use other powers that seemed good (like earn double points to get more stuff, or steal points to steal points of who you think is scum, etc). | ||

As I was thinking about this and knowing that scum had to have had extra points from gonzaw and mementoss, I wanted to have everyone publicly give all their points in the thread in varying amounts of groups. For example, I would get Keirathi to give all his points in 14 point groups, Stutters to give all his points in 19 point groups, etc. This would prove that scum had extra points. Maybe scum could have spent their points before doing this, but it would have taken time to do, so they would have likely messed up how many points they should have had. Or it would prove that scum had less points than they should have because they spent them all. Wait how would that work? | ||

Like is that even allowed? If it's allowed then I can write something like this: ##For (player in PlayerList) ##Give (points/(PlayerList.size()-1)) to [player] in increments of ((int)[player] mod 100) points at (current_time+ 60*random() seconds) time ##End for and it should be allowed as well, right? | ||

It's just: ##Give X points to Y And it gives X points to Y as long as you have them. I don't even know if "give all points" is allowed, and instead you should put your total number of points in that "give x points to y" command | ||
