Can you give me a run-down of his play in those games? Because in recent games I've seen (particularly Yet Another Normal Mini Mafia), he really flaunts a town persona. | ||

^XXXI was my first game with him. We nearly lynched him D1 for being scummy town. The rest of the game he tunneled me with confirmation bias and he was one of my top scumreads until I figured out the scumteam during lylo (which could have included him). Glancing over the post-game you can see him being like LOL I'm so bad sorry town, etc. But yeah he was scummy all around. In XXXII he was fairly scummy too but I got NK'd n1 so I didn't read into it much after that. Those were his nooby games though, maybe I'll look at some more of his recent games? I just assumed he kept his scummy-town persona thing going on. I don't doubt he's improved. | ||

But look at his filter in those games. Look how engaged, spammy, and aggressive he is. This game... he's a shell of himself. | ||

This game... he's a shell of himself. Can it all be due to a work schedule? I mean I can sympathize with that. But he's been really lurky so far and I was looking forward to him tunneling the fuck out of me. Him backing down made me a sad panda... | ||

Even if we dismiss the inactivity (due to RL excuses), it's the backing down that triggers the scum-alarm for me. I've never seen town Yamato back down from a scumread like that. Ever. | ||

Though, I think he's scum because his behavior seems to go beyond a strategic change and into a personality change. . Basically all traces of his town-aggression are gone from his play. Perhaps this is due to inactivity, but it just seems too drastic of a change. | ||

My original "case" was just a read post with vote pressure and it kind of got blown out of proportion both by myself and others. Allow me to rationalize why his indecision struck me so: Oats as scum in XXXII. I caught him flip flopping his read on Yamato so hard and lynch him for it. Xatalos did the same thing by contradicting himself within the frame of ~20mins with only 1 post from you inbetween. I'm starting to realize the two situations are different (as scum are more refined in these non-newbie games). But my concern stands that he's only really done that the entire game so far; saying he could be scum because this, but it could also be town. My experience with such play has been that it is scum. Tell me: Is it different? | ||

Also just reading through all the posts since I have been asleep I noticed something weird. It seems as if Jaybrundage and Xatalos have been pushing the same agenda and using very similar reasoning despite extremely limited in thread interaction. Now I know we can't make association cases before a flip, but I thought that I would mention it in case someone else had noticed the same thing. | ||

Well his (Xatalos's) "flip-flop" makes sense since I was actively trying to convince him to do exactly that (in regards to DP). I will say that I see hesitancy as a town-trait in instant-lynch setups. It's something I was advocating early on, and him being patient and willing to take time with things makes me lean town on him. He reminds me a lot of Austinmcc in GSL III Mini in terms of his approach to early-game play. I'm not concerned about his "indecision" yet. I might be if this goes on for a couple of more days though. | ||

In fact, mafia buddies often won't push the same mislynch early Day 1 Do you have any individually focused thoughts on Jay and Xatalos? | ||
