You really are seeing things that aren't there thrawn. My statement of "Xatalos is weird town" isn't a sweeping statement meaning I thought Xatalos is a weird player. You can see in my second post that I've looked at his previous games and his current play doesn't match up to either town or scum play. That is weird. Even if the contradiction you think you are seeing is there, you can clearly see that I'm not pushing to lynch Xatalos on that point anyways.

Now comment on my Prom thoughts.

sloosh I don't see what's necessarily scummy about the stuff you pointed out. people can have conflicting alignment connection theory ideas if they don't know who is scum

Yea but there is a basis for each conclusion you make. Maybe a certain post makes you think a player is more townie than you thought, maybe a certain case makes you think a player is more scummy than you thought. Prom swapped and I'm saying there isn't anything to base that swap, which is a scum thing to do, because they already know the alignments and can screw up like that.

Do you see sufficient reason for Prom to decide to swap his read like that?

Sloosh, what changed is that I reread the thread, looked into Xat's past and changed my mind. I at first thought he was a scummy looking dude who is always scummy (see Jay) even when town. On looking into him more as a player I decided that his play this game is different from his past, town, games. I knew that since I had earlier stated that I would not vote xat so I used that to pressure you and Hapa to give reasons for your read and to provide a better way for me to read both of you.

Can you clearly describe to me how you employ meta to read people in general?

You called my case weak. What about it was weak?

I brought up the fact that his play is also different from his scum play, yet you never bring this into consideration. Why?

An answer is implicit in the fact that I've dropped you to go after Prom. There's currently nothing to be gained from me interacting with you unless you have some insight into Prom that you have yet to share.

And as to the case on Xatalos, have you looked at his play in Paranoia? (SloOsh you get to answer this one as well). Hapa I'll tell you what I think after the answer to this.

I looked at his play from Paranoia and a bunch of other ones too, and this game's play looked nothing like his play in former games, either town or scum, which was the cause of the "second guessing" comment I started with. Do you think his meta indicates something about his alignment, particularly his drastic change in playstyle?

It's doesn't matter if you don't see a drastic change in playstyle because my case doesn't use meta, but it does matter if you think something about his meta is alignment telling but that is on your side and not mine to guess. So out with it.

Yea I still think Prom is scum.

If that's the case you should be convincing the townies to move their vote no? Stop setting up future mislynches.

There's still ~90 minutes until deadline. If you think Prom is town then you should be defending him and convincing people to take their votes off. If you think someone is much more likely to flip scum than him then you should be pushing for them and convincing people to switch over.

I see neither, but I do see people complaining about the Prom lynch. If you don't like it then do something about it.

Hmm. I can accept that you're focusing on Prom now, close to the lynch, but why did you totally ignore me earlier in the day after you made your case on me? Even though I responded to your case and questioned you about that? It just feels weird that you would drop any interest you had in your #1 scumread after making a new case. Were you even serious about that case on me?

My time is limited and I wanted to pursue some other reads. Prom's one ended up more fruitful. I really don't know how to get more specific than that - it's a playstyle thing.

Sloosh, do you sincerely see a scum motivation for being so back and forth with his opinions about Xata? It wasn't even a very good bandwagon attempt as there was only one vote at Xata at the time when he said he found him scummy.

Votes don't necessarily reflect the opinions of people, especially early day 1. My point with that post is that there is no actual basis for his back and forth switching. Even "lower level" town players all have some basis for switching reads (regardless of if they are valid or not). His basis is meta and I call bs on that.

What do you think of supersoft's playstyle? He set up two hypothetical scum teams and is now using a town flip in one to push the other. It is something scum can pull off and requires at least two mislynches before getting called out on.

I think he is town.

One is his constant needling of me when I stopped paying attention to him. Scum prefer to lay low and this works directly against it, because it draws my attention. Second is his wbg case. Of all the people to build such a case on, I don't think scum Xatalos would try drawing town WBG's attention to himself like that.

Anyways I think hopeless is scum.

Biggest tip off was how he didn't care at all about the lynch, especially given that I called him out for it, and his response:

If I can show him to be scummier than Prom, then yes, that would be rather useful. ZENTOR, HOP TO IT


Absolutely nothing showed an effort to defend Prom or push someone else harder. He just didn't care about the lynch. Other stuff in his filter gives off wanting to be seen as useful / doing stuff.

YES DO SO NOW!

You're letting the mafia win.



For all we know all 5 mafia could be in those 8.

;(

typo or did you post 5 because you're one of them and have 5 buddies? The op tells me it's 6 mafias.


Sorry, last game I played was 5 mafia. And before you guys get on my case for an OMGUS you scum slipped, I said all 5, not 5 others.


yeah but if you're mafia that would be a likely mistake to make and I don't think a townie would post something like that without checking the OP lol.
Not sure what to make of it because people said you're anti-town no matter of alignment and I can see what they were referring to if you really are town :D


By saying a typo it refers to me being anti-town?

it refers to you being weird.

Also about the ET matter: I still disagree with people voting him, even if he's town.
Yeah I think he's somewhat likely to flip mafia but he's not a vet in my book and I don't think he should get into the mayoral position for several reasons, even if he is town:

The mayor thing is pretty much a one-time use thing. You want someone to use that lynch in a good way and not some random guy who agrees that he's not good d1.
The mayor will be shot early on UNLESS he is hurting town. So again, it's pretty much a one-time-only thing because if you're voting the right guys you'll get shot.
If you're voting the wrong guys with 2 votes instead of just 1 mafia might want to keep you alive. I don't want that either because that's bad for town as well.

So I really think we should vote a vet into the office. Yes you usually vote a vet to protect them, but that doesn't mean that we should vote some guy into the office just because there's no BGs. I find that highly suspicious. Vets are vets and they're going to be shot either way, it's not like not electing them is going to protect them from danger.

So you want a good scumhunting vet to get shot?

nah I want a good scumhuntig vet to take a mafia down with him before being shot either way.

Yeah but everyone is lurking so its going to be a guessing game at this point. So the more important issue right now is to.... POST everyone!
Look at this conversation with Toad. Toad initially points out an inconsistency in the number of scum, says Grush might be scum because he counted only 5 scum in a game that had 6 (indicating he might have 5 buddies). Grush gives actual responses, discusses it just being a typo. Doesn't just discuss himself either, but notes the lurkers, has counted posts, and says where he thinks mafia might be hiding.

Grush will occasionally call some folks scummy - + Show Spoiler +

I agree with others opinions on Wiggles in that his lynch wasn't the best choice but calling someone scum for having posts that are too long is ridiculous. Having a filter a page long isn't too bad as long as the posts have content as Wiggles seem to. Plus wiggles still has more posts than most people anyways. He's not really indecisive either, he had two ideas on who to lynch for day one and so far day 2 has barely started.


Sigh majuju, you were lurking too and now that I called out your buddy you finally unlurked. LOL SERIOUSLY TOWN NUBS STAR TPOSTING asdaSDFASDFA. Okay, I will bring up the posts. Actually just read them too much work lol.

A town grush in LV wasnt afraid to defend towns when he need to nor was he reluctant to share his read. His interaction in the thread was far more active too.

His post this game all are filler-level post with 0 content.

Well, it's good to be curious.

Actually judging by the swap and the players on each list I think both were town...hmm.

We should definitely kill grush at least though. We need to address these people who are skating by without getting attention. Allowing them to live while townies die because we seek active scum is a plan for losing.

On the whole, including pregame banter and postgame, a not quite 4 full pages of filter. Lived until endgame, which was the end of D4.


So, based only on two games and nothing else, what patterns do we see in Grush's play?
  • Town grush lived half as long as scum grush, but posted as much or more. Towngrush more posty.
  • Town grush makes real accusations sometimes, although he may not back them up with anything when asked.
  • Town grush is more likely to respond to being called scum, or to people questioning him, with actual discussion.


PokeGrush
PokeGrush's filter is a decent bit over 4 pages, after 3 full cycles (And he spent part of it banned)

He starts off responding to questions - + Show Spoiler +

To answer the question, breadcrumb, and meta. Plus I'm town.

Now, we must find scum.

I must stop posting so scum can start posting and then we catch them.

Cool trick.

Maybe BioSC(I don't even know why but he is scum)


How is dirk helping? I would like a detailed response on that.

I will agree that hopeless is likely scum at this point though.


Well I mean he's posting cases and defending himself and contributing. I don't know why he was the closest to being lynched.

Well, half his posts are before the game, and he just is basically lurking and not helping.
In scum teams in my experience, you have 2-3 active in the thread, and 1-2 basically lurking Toad and chezinu died, I feel like there is only one major player in the thread that is scum atm. Also dirk may be scum aswell, before his posts were useless and now he just lurks.

He gives some reads, with...some reasoning - + Show Spoiler +

Sorry my activity has been shit. My guts have been acting up, which has had me not interested in thinking much. Occupational hazard of crohn's.

Anyways, I'm not comfortable with the people looking at VE because he's playing differently. He took a LOT of crap in Mad Men for his play, some based on meta. If a lot of people want him to play differently, and he's tired of being looked at the way he is, he might just try to play differently.

I still like the idea of lynching Grush in absence of real reads, but maybe that's just a combination of me being vindictive and him being Grush. If we have a better target, obviously that would nullify it anyways.


YOU DONT ANSWER FOR VE ACTIONS, VE DOES.


You're trying to answer for my actions, you're saying it's scummy to want to policy lynch a useless poster (you), when I actually just don't want to read your posts.

This game is all about reading intentions. Sometimes that leads to a defense. Tough luck.

lol.
no.
You're assuming he's playing differently because he got butthurt.
I'm saying that your scum.
Different things

Jingle, you don't answer to any of the cases against you, you keep bandwagoning on the townies!!!!!!!!!!!
You call me scum because I'm actually playing this time?!?!?!?1?!!??!?1?1?1!/1?1?1!?1?1
However when commenting on VE's play you said he wanted to play differenty and give him the benefit brohan.
Which is me questioning VE being town right now.
But all the vets aren't trying, the one who did was BC and he died, and Wiggles is playing the EXACT same way he did as scum before. When I played with WBG before and he was town he was very active, and Kenpachi could be town or scum because he is Kenpachi.

**I doctored this quote because it was split into two posts**


I could keep pulling more stuff from this game, but now I want to do something else. So instead, you should read this. You should come to your own conclusions. But if you think Grush is scum, you need some decent reasoning. Because it looks to me like he's playing much more like he did in LV than in LVI. It looks to me like there are some actual helpful posts buried in the trolling. D2 I didn't think hopeless1der was scum, but I didn't fight it hard enough, had just entered the game. D3 I didn't think VE was scum, and I should have swapped my vote from Wiggles to misder in order to try and get a switch at the end. D4 I don't think Grush is scum, and it's time to actually stand up and fight his lynch, early. I do not want scum having control of this one.



The jist of what was relevant to me was that scum-grush is rather flippant when accused, just like his response to Thrawn this game. In addition, grush' towncrumb is 100% accurate afaik, so I was kind of baiting for that as well. He's completely self-aware of this fact, but its probably no longer useful because I'm using it to explicitly coerce him now.

Since I reinforced my scumread without actually doing anything, he OMGUSed me with the reasoning that I didn't have a legitimate reason for voting him (as quoted above). Grush' activity has little to no bearing on his scumminess to me because in my experience he trolls regardless of alignment. His relative 'usefulness' is different and worth noting but is not alignment indicative. His questions and concern for the game (which is still apparent in troll-mode) are what distinguishes grush from his town/scum selves.

What I 'expected' from town-grush was closer to his response to me. His response to Thrawn was dismissive and was really the only reason I had to go after him in the first place. When I accused him, he wanted to know why I thought he was scum, seemed to want to discuss it. He's also spent time reading the thread, or at least it seems that way from his filter.

##Unvote: grush57

Like, was this really necessary? He wasn't in danger of being lynched, and he said in the post before that he might "be talking out of my ass". The meticulous follow up certainly does not match up with his previous uncertainty.

Hapa's case covers the rest.

One is his constant needling of me when I stopped paying attention to him. Scum prefer to lay low and this works directly against it, because it draws my attention. Second is his wbg case. Of all the people to build such a case on, I don't think scum Xatalos would try drawing town WBG's attention to himself like that.


how do you know I'm town?

Huh ... I guess I tipped my hand. I think you are scum.

Might as well come out with it all.

I planned on testing out my read of WBG by presenting my read on hopeless. I think hopeless is scum, and wanted to push him today and gauge WBG's reactions accordingly, especially since it seemed WBG was showing, what I perceive as, some unwarranted leniency to hopeless. Of course this is something characterized under tone, feel etc. which is why I wanted to see his response to better gauge it.

I will now field any and all questions.
