Well blazing read right through how stupid it was so I'm glad. Nice try Djo!

it's because I was spamming and being useless, obviously.

Okay so let's take my case on snb for example. I make the case, no one disagrees, I move on. I let the case speak for me, if my case is good I won't need to spam X IS SCUM OMG
As for the questioning stuff, it all came together in my list of reads posts.
I can definitely see your point though.

Hopeless gains the LVP trophy here. Confirmed town, blindly sheeping his vote on me, and just chilling without trying to do shit this late stage of game. Seriously, what bad play. Everyone else was trying to figure shit out. Gah
I really liked this town day one though, insane activity made it tough for scum to hide in. All three scum members were completely discernable from after day one (with the exception of SnB imo... took me a while to get a townread from him), which is something that I've never seen happen before.
We got a bit (a fucking lot) lucky on hapa's lynch, but this was one hell of a day 1for town, and I'm impressed.
Will comment more later.
GG! A trophy's a trophy I guess... Seriously though, why did you down your game so much after day one? I know you as a capable player, especially from LVII... I honestly don't know why I stop putting things into the thread. I'm always thinking about and lurking the game. A combination of BH was alive and I bought into DP's WIFOM bomb theory, and things just went downhill from there.
I mentioned this during the game too and it got shot down as "calling people bad", but you truly were the only confirmed town, so you were in a unique position to lead town to victory... TT
Your shot on cross was still really good though.

You have to keep pushing people to really think about your case. That's like the biggest difference between decent town players and really good town players. everyone is right sometimes and wrong sometimes but the really good players get the lynch when they're right.
I would've gotten you lynched instead of zbo if I was around that day, I'm certain.

Z-BosoN should have never been lynched. That was such lazy thinking by everyone in the town.
So, the godfather is lynched day 1. Then, during the night, marv is screaming for the vig to shoot BH (the claimed JK). If ZB was scum, he would know that BH was in fact town, and probably have deduced that BH wasn't lying about the JK claim, and would let the BH vig go through. Instead, ZB comes into the thread saying "No no no no. Don't shoot BH, shoot [my other partner] Crossfire!" Scum just doesn't do that. Period, end of story. Maybe scum ZB would have bussed him the next day, but he would 100% want the vig to waste a shot on a townie rather than his teammate. I fully considered this and STILL thought the WIFOM bomb theory made sense. Well, you had already sent in the shot on Crossfire even before he said it, so props to you. But, I still think it was a terrible lynch, and by far the worst wagon of the game.
I'm a pretty close second.

Blazing that's a terrible mindset.
|
You should be able to see why "eh, we weren't gonna lose anyway, probably" is kind of a lazy mindset.
|
So he calls you lazy, you call you lazy. lazy lazy lazy It's not a big deal, you're not all wrong, and you did win.
|
By the way maybe I'm just good at picking the games, but so far every game people have said it's really active (or even, too active) Yet it doesn't feel that way for me.
|
Blazing I think all the things I would consider "bad" from your play originated from your JK claim but you already said why you did that, so there's not much to say there. I guess maybe, when you are in a position where you are basically confirmed town, take advantage of it.

I think I fucked myself by overreacting to snb's case. iamp showing doubt got me killed, fairly sure. Even though he was like the last to get on me

oh Keir I never thanked you for hosting, thanks! And dandel and drazak for votecounts ofcourse.

That being said, Whilst I understand keir's viewpoint and thought about that, what gonzaw says is true and is exactly what I would have done as scum. Which is the only point of reference I have. Add to that that both marv and Blazinghand thought you were scum at different points of the game and that you, like me, almost got mislynched day one. There is some work that needs to be done on your town game to stop you getting mislynched. Also anyone saying that a miller claim should be treated in the same way as a miller claim is wrong. If people disagree I would love to hear their reasoning. @clarity. I felt your play was based on emotion rather than anything substantial. Especially with your reads on myself and djo. also you need to work on posting less IMO. 100 pages on night one is ridiculous for a mini IMO. Many people in the obs qt complained about it. The amount of content generated was unnecessary and hurt town IMO as it was very difficult to find anything important in the mess. Others may have different thoughts but I think the mass posting hurt town. hmm If I have any other thoughts I'll jot them down. Also I am actually burnt out BH. Don;t know why I would lie about it. I was actually going to take a break after ACME but keir asked me to join this and I <3 keir so what could I do.
That's funny coming from someone who makes an OMGUS case on me because I made a case on him, and posted it at a really weird time. I'm also fairly certain I'm not the only one to blame for the size of this game.
That said, yes I might have overdone it with my posting. You need to realize that D2 people were giving up though, so I was trying to keep town talking, but it ended up being me and djo a lot.

I VOTED for you before you even mentioned me, I thought you were scummy day one. It was not OMGUS at all... Also if you are worried about peoples contributions, drowning out everything else in useless spam is not the way to go about it. And shutting down people who actually try to get back in the game because you don;t like what they have to say is not the way either. You are right though. I think BH spammed to much and Djo did too for obvious reasons.
You voted for me when I wagoned onto snb if I recall. I made a case on you, you made a case on me and posted it like 45 minutes before lynch when there was not way you were being lynched. I guess I'm obviously biased but the case seemed major omgus to me.

Depends why they get replaced. If it's not specified then it's rather hard to use anything the replaced guy says against the replacement.

Also how did anyone try to bend me mixing up names D1 as me being scum, are there people that seriously do that?

debears = CC from code geass. How did no one laugh at that joke?

Scum DP would have never given a town read on S&B when he was the most popular mislynch option just to push a mislynch on someone like Djo :p
I think I explained the reasoning for scum to keep snb alive quite well. But yeah a town read might be a bit much.

Yes but if I can emulate it I can do it as both alignments and then everyone will know I am town regardless of alignment. Right? how does this benefit me?
You get to improve the play of others and therefore have a richer experience when you play with them
