Town motivations I don't see town motivations for making a joke about a scumtell
Mafia motivations Creates confusion and disturbs the thread. Allows to influence our read on debears while looking clean You also neglect to realize that my joke was in a RESPONSE to his joke. (I don't wear hats). You're really trying to dig where there is nothing. @ CheeseOk, you had motivations for doing this joke but it doesn't really help town while it could be done with mafia motivation. And, at least, I'm trying to dig something. Would you prefer me to discuss how we should use plurality lynch ? Which got me curious what he had to say on the subject. Turns out the answer is nothing new. Which begs the question: Why did he mention it in the first place? Clarity, I think it was meant to be read as more of this: Do you want me to push something and try to get the thread going, or do you want me to talk about useless policy? Would you agree with that? I.... didn't even consider that. Yes, that actually makes much more sense.
I was exactly this.

What do you think of Obsy's, Dau0d's, and Sylver's epic uselessness so far?
@ debears
The game has just started. Regarding daoud and sylver, the longer it takes for them to join the discussion, the bigger my expectations are for their future input. Obsy has to step up a little bit. @Obsy if you are town, you should definitively ask Hapa for help

@ Cheese
Regarding your pokemon joke explanation, I didn't like how you focused on the content instead of precising what were your motivations for this joke at that time. It would be acceptable if you just told me that it was genuine or an attempt to frame me (it occurred during last game after all).
Nevertheless, I would agree that we should drop this discussion. But you are still on my radar.

Votes, the mod will keep track of for us. I understand he's the most active person. If that was 3 pages of posts with useful content, I'd have no issue. It's like 2 pages of fluff and 1 page of content, and the 1 page of content could be condensed if he didn't jam the "post" button after finishing a sentence, when he fully intends to immediately write another one. @Rad - you were friggin brilliant D2/N2 last game. It's a shame you used your only bullet N1. 
@ sylverfyre
So let me sum up the situation. You join the thread and directly vote for debears mainly because there is a lot of fluff in it. Then you say that you are voting him to "cast suspicion with your vote". I'm sorry but I'm voting somebody when I find them suspicious, not to cast suspicion on him. Do you know who is voting innocent players to cast suspicion on them ? Mafia. (Not sure if debears is innocent in this case, I have seen things I don't really like in his filter) I'm taking this for a scumslip and the most suspicious thing I have seen in this thread so far.
##Vote sylverfire
@ Clarity
It answers your question

The only potential lurkers that we have in this game are daoud and maybe Obzy (but it doesn't look like it). My problem with your policy is that it is directed towards these players in this game. What we have to be wary of is active lurking (refer to the mafiaQT in the previous game) and people blending in. Do you see anyone else possibly lurking ?
Show nested quote +On November 03 2012 11:04 Djodref wrote: @ Rad
That's my problem with a lurker policy this game, I think that it can be used only against daoud or Obzy (maybe sylverfire). I think it would be much better to call directly these players for lurking rather agreeing on a policy which could be a perfect excuse for the mafia to push a mislynch on them, assuming that they are town. It's a small game and if you have a problem with the activity level of anyone, you can call them on it, no need for a policy.
@ daoud
I think the game is small enough to use some direct tools to pressure lurkers instead of a policy. According to this, I have absolutely no problem with debears vote on you. I was just identifying you as potential lurkers, not potential targets. Anyway, it should be easy enough to get away from this position: you just have to regularly post some content in the thread.

@ Clarity
I was concerned with policy because everyone was supportive of the "Lynch a Lurker" policy when I am not. So I've tried to argue with Rad over it because I think he is one of the greatest supporters of the policy (see last game). I agree that I might have had this discussing for too long. Regarding the "Cheese joke argument", I've picked something in the thread that I didn't like and purposely made a big fuss about it to put pressure on Cheese and to spark some discussion. You could argue that we end up arguing about useless things but I wouldn't say so. As you have noticed, debears defended Cheese and attacked me at the same time while I was tunneling him. It could be useful information for the future

Its mafia favored compared to the last setup. Only 9 players means a quicker game. A quicker game is better foe mafia since they don't have to fake their townieness for so long.
Also look at the roles like medic. Medic can't target the same person twice (was it also that he can't target himself? I'm on my phone and i really don't want to check
@ debears
So, are you saying that the fact that we have a medic which cannot target the same person twice is such a big imbalance that this game is obviously mafia favored or are you role-fishing ? I'm not sure why you mention this in this post, could you elaborate ?

@ Obsy
I didn't ignore the deb/Alsn argument. I've just thought that it was not such a big deal. Please look at the time stamps and be more careful when you read the thread.

I don't think this one deserves a FoS. When Alsn says that it is technically a lie, that's just Alsn arguing about math and logic.
@ everyone
I'm going to be around at deadline but it is 10am for me so please expect me to take some time to catch up with the thread and not being able to think very clearly. I was seriously pissed off last game when you were jumping at me for my waking-up posts.
On November 03 2012 11:07 debears wrote: @djo
Why are you addressing lurker policy still while me and alsn are arguing?
Afraid to jump in and actually talk about something that doesnt make you commit?
Also not that debears call me for it after my first post about it but the thread was moving quite fast at that time.
|
Just a remark for Obsy and Clarity, lists can been seen as a scumtell. I know that newbies love them so it's a null tell for me right now. Let me explain.
Making list makes you look like as an active contributor while you are not really committing on any player. From a list post, it's easy to blend in and find some reasons to vote for the possible lynch candidates.
And I also think it would be better for you to focus on your scumreads rather than dispatch your attention. If you are town, of course
|
@ Clarity
No, your post was fine, I was just giving you an advice. And I was indeed talking about your post summing up your reads. Maybe it should be better if you focused on one or two players.

No comments on sylverfire scumslip ?

Definition of casting suspicion: suggest that something or someone might be suspect
I had to look up in the dictionary to be sure ^^
This coupled to the fact that his reasons to vote debears are insufficient in my eyes (you vote someone for some facts, not because he is fluffy without showing where he is fluffy) made sylverfire my top scumread right now.
|
@ daoud
Why do you defend him ?
How can you know his intentions ? The reason he has given us for his vote is his intent to "cast suspicion" upon debears because his filter is full of fluff, according to him. You should better have waited for sylverfire to defend himself for this one because you might just have given him a rope to get out of his situation,

I'm not sure to understand exactly what you mean...
Are you saying that I purposely misinterpret what sylver has said and done to attack him ? Could you clarify where you think I am wrong ?

@ debears
Maybe you were waiting for a possible medic to confirm you the fact that he cannot heal himself. I would expect a medic to carefully read his role's rules and I'm expecting you to know that medics usually cannot heal themselves. But you are asking this question nevertheless. I'm agreeing that the speed of this game is benefit the mafia but I don't see why the role setup would be mafia favored. It is only because the medic cannot heal the same person twice ?

That, with no vig, no vet, yet the Mafia still have the same power roles for possiblities, except the godfather. Oh, and roleblocks aren't notified. Mainly it's the number of players and speed of the game combined with only having 2 mafia
@ debears
I think that cop and jailkeeper are powerful roles, we might not have both of them though. Vig is not so good in newbie games (could you confirm this one, Rad?). Please also note that a framer couldn't use his power on his mafia partner. Anyway, I don't think the setup is imbalanced from a role point of view and I was surprised that you were only mentioning the medic. I'm not totally satisfied with your explanations but it was a minor thing.
I'm more interested in sylverfire and daoud right now.
Can the framer frame himself ?

What do you think of my points on Sylver?
Well, I have voted for sylver before you for a different scumslip so I definitively agree 
Anyway they are good points, the scumslip you have found is better than mine, his vote on you is quite unfounded and he has also totally forgot to mention me jumping on Cheese in his post.
I think the chances for him to be scum are great.
