Hahahaha.
I'll feel a bit bad if Hopeless is indeed town, but I doubt it.
I'm also saddened by the fact that the overall trend of these games still hasn't changed. Still there are always so many deadweight players. Why do you all sign up for games if you're going to be such a detriment to your own faction?
|
It's really saddening how lurky this game is. Several players (grush, MrZentor) have literally done nothing all game... And most players are posting less and less frequently. Although I guess it also has something to do with how unanimous (=boring) today's vote is.

Oh wait, MrZentor *did* actually play during D1, but not after that :/

That's why, for example, my vote was on Hopeless for the majority of the time. He was consistently behind in votes. If I swapped over to slOosh at a bad time then it would make a Hopeless lynch less likely, because a net 2 vote switch is likely to scare off all the noobs into making real stances.
If you're town and can't understand why I would want a close lynch, and why I would be interested in forcing scum to take sides like that, then I'd suggest you reread Ver's town guide. So, how am I being dumb if your reason for voting someone is deceptive(even from your own PoV)? I can buy that you wanted to hold the voting close. But that isn't a very relevant part of the case anyway. For example, it doesn't explain the fact that you first say that hopeless looks much better after his post + the fact that he played similar to this last game as town and then moments later say that he is just as scummy SlOosh. It also doesn't explain the fact that you didn't push Hopeless at all during the day, while you were pushing SlOosh like no tomorrow.
This is pretty much based on WBG trying to save his scumbuddy Hopeless, I guess. If Hopeless flips town, is WBG still scum in your mind? What makes WBG scum outside of this connection?

Who is scum if Hopeless flips scum? What if he flips town? This is just a complete waste of time holding reads until N3.

Yeah, there's no way scum would reveal themselves by resisting a lynch with such huge support. I would bus really hard right now in their shoes. It's a lost cause even attempting to save Hopeless at this point.

He is only pushing SLOosh. Even when voting Hopeless, he is pushing SlOosh. He dissmisses all my accusations with that he wanted to keep the voting close. I do agree with that keeping the voting close is a nice thing to do as town, however its not a very relevant part of my case at all. I'm not pushing him for the fact THAT he swapped his vote, but rather how he did it.
Now, ask youself this. Almost ALL day, SlOosh was leading in votes. If WBG really did want to keep the voting close and were fine with both Hopeless and SlOosh lynches, why did he push SlOosh and not Hopeless?
Also, Look at SlOosh last analytical post, he has some good points on WBG as well. WBG is scum for me no matter what Hopeless flips.

Actually, when thinking of it. If Hopeless turns out to be scum, I'd say grush is probebly town. His interactions with him doesn't actually look like two scum talking to each other. And besides, grush has had Hopeless as scum since the game started even.

If we assume that WBG is town (so he has no information about the alignments of Sloosh or Hopeless), it feels natural to push one of the main lynch candidates over the other one. It would in fact feel unnatural to just be indifferent about which one of them gets lynched as town.

He did state quite explicit that he HAD them both down as scum and that he did in fact feel indifferent about who to lynch. Yet he chose only to push SlOosh even tho Hopeless was behind in votes almost all day.

Well, the end result WAS close. With Hapa pushing Hopeless so hard, I can see it being more useful to push Sloosh, even if it made no big difference to him personally. I'm just trying to see the town logic here, and I think it's more likely than openly helping out his scumbuddy. Although that's a possible scenario, but it depends completely on Hopeless flipping scum, and even then it means WBG was playing very greedily by openly saving his scumbuddy.

Lazer's LVIII filter, Page 6 http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=373946&user=187170¤tpage=6
Read it, learn what town-Lazer pushing a scumread looks like.
Go read it goddamnit.
In this game, none of that persistence is present. I implore you to read his filter from THIS game, and look for the ways that Lazer has read me as town all game, and then look at this post:
On January 20 2013 05:29 Lazermonkey wrote:Hopeless is probebly scum after all... Sure, his play is similar to what it was last game but on the other hand him playing similar to last game when he was town is actually completely irrelevant because it actually doesn't tell us anything about his play as scum. Also, his play overall simply isn't townie at all. His posted some long posts some time ago but the first one was just him echoing what he said D2, Hapa + Lazer are scum. The second one was talking about setup. Why would you as town in this position do something like that? A townie who is just about to die would do ANYTHING to help his team get on the right track and give out all reads because when he flips, everyone will know that what he said was comming from a townie who at least wanted to hunt scum. Him repeating reads isn't helpfull at all. We would go through his filter anyway once he flips and find those reads. With that being said, Hopeless is going to get lynched today it seems, and spending more time explaining why he is scum seems ##Vote: HopelessWBGWbgs vote pattern yesterday is veeery funky indeed.

alright, fair enough. Let's bring out Hopeless and then we can move onto this slOosh business later.
##unvote ##vote Hopeless1der While admittedly I think he is getting convinced by the guy he thinks he scum a little bit too fast, I don't really see any problem with this vote. He did state quite explicit that he had Hopeless down as scum. The third voteShow nested quote +On January 17 2013 01:42 wherebugsgo wrote: alright, let's go for it. I actually like Hopeless's thoughts in his last post and Lazer looks much better because he pointed out something that I noticed too; in Hopeless's last game he played somewhat similar to this.
slOosh, on the other hand, is still scum.
##unvote ##vote slOosh Now, this is when things start to get fishy. WBG states that because he read my post about about Hopeless play last game and how its similar to last game, he is now much more inclined to belive that Hopeless looks town, or at least much better. However, I have a hard time thinking this is what actually happend. In last game, all of us three were town. Me and WBG were heavily suspicious of Hopeless that game(WBG filter). Both of us were pushing him hard core. I have a hard time seeing that WBG just forgot all this in a few days and needed my post as a reminder, especially since he seems to be a guy remembering things like this. For example, he was very fast at dissmissing my accusations against Jay PURELY based on meta from another game, a game that was played about a month ago. Also note how during the time that he voted Hopeless, He doesn't really pressure him at all. He only has one post asking Hopeless about whether or not he is willing to lynch into SlOosh or not. This is in stark difference to when he was pushing SlOosh scum. The forth voteShow nested quote +On January 17 2013 04:18 wherebugsgo wrote: alright.
I'm feeling lazy so let's just kill Hopeless. I don't think anything is going to happen in the near future to make either read stronger and so it's just best to consolidate our votes rather than continue to inflate the thread with further pointless back-and-forths.
##unvote ##vote Hopeless1der Once again, this is a very scummy vote. In just three hours he went from saying that he liked Hopeless posting much more, that he saw similarities to his last game and that SlOosh was scum to the opposite. Hopeless doesn't actually post even once during the time between the third and forth vote. WBG is instead convinced by Hapa's arguments on the issue. During the time between those two votes WBG goes on to say that Hopeless is a good lynch once again. But what happend with Hopeless improved posting? What happend with the meta read that made him look more town? And during this time, WBG still seems convinced that SlOosh is a good lynch, yet he votes Hopeless. He also tells us to conolidate which is strange because the votecount at this point was looking like this: Show nested quote +On January 17 2013 01:50 Dandel Ion wrote: Votecount:

let's see what happens if I do this:
##unvote ##vote slOosh Not much to say. WBG doesn't really motivate this swap at all and would he have voted Hopeless, hopeless would've died. Summary: WBG is flipping his vote like a mad man between Hopeless and SlOosh. However, while he is pushing SlOsh hard, he doesn't push hopeless at all. He even pushes SlOosh while he is voting Hopeless. As for the last scum, I'm not sure. My best guess at this point is grush because of the simple explanation that I have a town read, albeit not too strong, on every else. Consider the fact that there is NO OTHER CANDIDATE. In addition, there are currently 2 people not voting, 1 of which is MrZentor. I am either being bussed like a fucking champion, or scum see no reason to contest my lynch. I wouldn't mind Lazer voting me, except he's had me as town the entire time. Not null, not leaning, he hard defends me against Hapa:

I'm feeling lazy so let's just kill Hopeless. I don't think anything is going to happen in the near future to make either read stronger and so it's just best to consolidate our votes rather than continue to inflate the thread with further pointless back-and-forths.
##unvote ##vote Hopeless1der In just a couple of hours? And Hopeless didn't even say a thing during this time. Just you talking with Hapa and him calling the thread bad for not wanting to lynch Hopeless. @Hapa: did you read hopeless filter from LVIII? Yes I did. However that's only one game out of the multitude of his recent town games in which he played very aggressively. In addition, I can't rationalize his stance on iamp from a town perspective: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=392955¤tpage=52#1022Votes Ruuch, afks for the entire night cycle, comes back and says he thinks iamperfection is town for no reasoning, then proceeds to make arguments against me based on the "assumption" of iamp being town. Furthermore, he stated that he didn't understand my reasoning for voting Ruuch, which is incredibly scummy considering that he voted Ruuch himself. Meeeh, I really think Hopeless should be defending himself, but since he seem to suck at that... I feel like alot of your points, maybe even all of them, could be explained by the fact that Hopeless is bad. And do you see any scum motivation in scum motivation in saying that a player is suspicious for voting the same person that you are voting yourself? This just seems retarded as both alignments. Also, Hopeless feels like he bases alot of his reads on OMGUS(whoever votes him, he votes etc) Also, I don't exactly see that he went from vote ruush to Iamp is town without explaination as scummy. ruush was a policy lynch and nothing else, and Iamp is clearly looking better than ruush to say the least. I'm not terribly fond of having to be defended because I'm bad and therefore not scum, but fuck it. One way or another, his reasoning for his read of me (as town or scum) is weak and scummy as it has allowed him to flop on his read very easily.
Previous reasons to lynch Lazer:

Your reads being terrible is very alignment indicative, you are up for lynch and you have three reads and calling one dude names. You aren't trying to help town, none of those are new reads and none of them are explained there.
the difference in your play is that in LVIII you felt like a townie trying to work out what was going on and here you feel like a scummer trying to find someone to vote. You are looking for excuses and not reasons.
supersoft: tbh, I'm not even sure how detailed his read was, he just kind of sheeped my case towards the end of the Day and gave out these posts:

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.

You would think as scum he could at least throw some town reads around. To come in that weakly may mean he is in fact town. which is more likely.. that he's town and has no reads or that he;'s scum?

Currently, Promethelax is set to be lynched! Less than an hour left until the deadline.
PM me or CC if I dun screwed up the count. Remember - you must vote! I'm using the last votecount before ruuch entered the thread. 2 people on lazer's wagon were confirmed town. That plus EVERYTHING that's happened since N1 should be more than enough to reason to hang lazermonkey. Just go back and read the exchange I had with him where he was completely unable to talk about reads, other than the read he was sheeping. (also interesting to mention that lazer was sheeping wbg, even tho wbg was one of the very few people it looked like lazer might be suspicious of.) The small amount he posted earlier today was scummy.. his most recent conclusion/insight is that hopeless and xatalos are probably not both scum. How is this helpful at all? It's the latest in a long pattern of lazermonkey making no attempt at all to scumhunt. Hapa is also one to worry about. D1 he pushed to lynch prom, then abandoned his scumread to vote for ruuch. If hapa turns out to be scum, I don't think that will say anything about ruuch's alignment. If ruuch is scum, he would have been a great buss opportunity. In N1 and D2 hapa tunneled hopeless the majority of the time.... but I don't remember him actually trying too hard to get hopeless lynched or entering into other conversations. I think wbg is town but you should pay attention to how well he contributes towards lynching scum from here on out. Same thing applies to hapa. everyone else I don't really have any relevant thoughts about.
Guess who got nk'd?
Yes, the end of this was me invoking the desires of dead townies who had limited information compared to us now, but they, all 3 of them, wanted to lynch Lazer. No one finds that even remotely suspicious? 2/3 have been nk'd, though it isn't clear if/who slOosh shot. Oh shit conspiracy theory time. Maybe closer to deadline.
