Don't lynch Marv ever, all game. If I have only one townread, that townread is Marv. Anyone who votes Marv, anyone who thinks Marv is scummy, anyone who even doesn't instantly believe everything Marv says is in good faith, is a complete idiot. In addition to what I said earlier about Marv (link), there's the crucial fact that he didn't share the fact Iamp masoned him with me. A scum Marv would have every reason to share this fact with the town, every reason to confuse the townies and increase the shitstorm that was the case surrounding me during N1. Iamp was shot because like a jubjub he claimed blue 7 minutes before the end of the night instead of right at the end like an intelligent player. I'm 100% sure this was scum shot, that they were watching the thread, saw a blue claim, and fired their bullet. Seriously though there's 0% chance Marv is scum. I'm also strongly inclined to think DP is town, despite him being wrong about me and scumtells in general. He's legitimately not very good at mafia and doesn't understand how scumslips work (hint: they don't), but his belief is honest. His badgering and incessant attacks on me are what I'd expect from a town DP. It's not the push, it's the motivation behind the push, and that motivation is town. People are still on JJD, and I am aware at one point I was pushing him, but I think the guy is town, at least for now. I don't see why he'd attack DP. I mean, there is a certain possibility he's setting up for a switch in thread sentiment against DP after I flip town, but I really don't see that happening. I'm going to chalk this one up to "JJD is bad and doesn't change his reads all game, even in light of new evidence." JJD, if you're reading this, check out how DP goes after me immediately after the perceived "scumslip". He might be wrong, but his earnest attack is not something that makes sense from a town perspective. | ||

The people who posted within an hour of night end are grush, wos, stutters, marv, iamp, rayn, gk, and myself. Marv touches on that idea here (link) about an hour after the deadline. I'm gonna remove marv, myself, rayn, and iamp from the list since 2 of those are flipped townies, marv is confirmed town, and I sure aint making a case on myself. So, I'm looking at grush, wos, sutters, and gk. I still don't think GK is a good lynch. I've said it once and I've said it again, GK questioning the VA lynch doesn't make him scum, and although his role-pm reading shenanigans are INDEED shenanigans, the guy always has slow starts. Not a good D2 lynch. Okay, wow actually I take it back So, my plan was to write this meta case on how GK was actually town, right? But then I went and spent some time remembering and reading notes on how GK plays, and basically it can be summed up like this: Now, this was a case I wrote in The Game, where, yes, I was scum, but everything written here is true. Town GK is cautious at first, gathering information and momentum, then builds a case and follows it up. Scum GK throws his vote around aggressively and doesn't have followup, going onto whatever wagon happens to become popular. I was planning to open GK's filter and show how he's town, but he is not playing to his town meta, he is playing to his scum meta. Reading GK's filter, his play this game 100% is exactly as he plays as scum. He IMMEDIATELY comes out with a vote on stutters (link), then his next post (after chiding VA) swaps to Grush (link), then after defending himself from an early case he swaps to WoS (link) and he continues the madness all throughout the rest of D1, voteswapping and trying to stay on the popular wagon. This is literally scum GK. I'll eat my damn hat if it ain't. He's playing to his scum meta, he's also playing objectivity scummy and shitty (where's the followups to his push? what's with that list post? Why no careful analysis buildup?), and he was around when iamp claimed mason. ##vote GoodKarma | ||

Examining his play in NMMXXIV as town (link) I see a player who posts slowly and doesn't contribute much in the first half of D1, and only really starts writing cases (mostly unfocused and studded with FOSes at other players) as the game progresses. It's only in the later days that he picks up steam and starts hammering on players. In LVII as scum (link), GK comes out punching, immediately posting cases and voting/Fosing, and instead of pushing multiple reads, he changes who he focuses on as soon as his case fails to gain traction (instead of pressing on, trying to really get his target lynched). He also doesn't wait to formulate reads, he _immediately_ starts flopping mud at people. The GK in this game is the town GK that I've coached and observed extensively. He is cautious, posts rarely, and builds up momentum to be a formidable scumhunter. This is not the kinda uncaring, willing-to-make-any--case scum GK that I've seen. He is not a good D1 lynch. He is not a good vigi shot. He is town. Now, this was a case I wrote in The Game, where, yes, I was scum, but everything written here is true.

Yamato, I personally request this from you as well, since, as you admit, you've slowed down. I'd like you to weigh in on my GK case, specifically the meta component (since we're not talking about PM shenannnies) and let me know what you think of it.

I'm phone posting so I can't pull the quote since I'm on my phone but someone posted about his meta that seemed pretty damming in addition to his overall scummy stylle. If you have access to a computer can you check out what I'm talking about and give your thoughts. If not I'll pull the quote tomorrow morning and would like your thoughts before the flip. Also can you clarify your last paragraph (the one about JJD where you say "he may be wrong, but his earnest attack doesn't make sense from a town perspective." Who's attack doesn't make sense and why doesn't it from a town perspective if both people you're addressing there are people you have town reads on? Ah, my bad, that was a typo. I meant to say, JJD's attack on DP doesn't make a huge amount of sense to me from a scum perspective. This might just be because I know I'm going to flip town, but it seems to be a scum JJD might take this opportunity to buddy JJD and help secure an easy mislynch. | ||

I'm certain I've directly responded to your recent post addressing me. Is there another post besides this one (link) of yours that you want me to read? | ||

It might be a little hard to follow considering I didn't quote the posts. I also noticed you've been ignoring him for the most part in your own filter. Can you go over my read/filter dive him and give me your thoughts along with why you've been so silent on a controversial person? Aside from his shitfest with marv (which I consider scummy (link)) DI has not been on my radar. I'll take a look at what else he's done this game and formulate a more complete read. | ||

BH now that you finally appear to be giving us reads, you've probably seen the scumreads that a few of us seem to share atm. Do you have anyone who doesn't fit into that list and if so, why? That would be more valuable imo if you somehow flip town. On May 22 2013 07:05 Blazinghand wrote: off hand I'd say I think JJD is town, not scum.

Go right ahead! Unfortunately, I typically find grush unreadable as any alignment and an unusually unuseful townie. Up until LX I had a policy of lynching Grush D1, though Marv is generally able to discern his alignment with regularity. I'm modestly sure WoS is scum. He had an extremely flip-floppy post earlier in the game (link). I had him as one of my top scumreads over the course of D1, and it seems like he's fishing for reasons to attack me (like, what? I'm clearly getting lynched today) and not really reading what I have to write today. I'm not as positive on this as I am on my GK scumread though. | ||
