You are implying that anyone who looks at your past games will see a pattern as to how you play as town, which will miraculously match how you are playing in this current game that you are claiming town. You could easily be scum masking as town and trying to post similarly to how you did in the past. Ultimately this information, at least for me, will not be that useful to use. | ||

Interesting that you are focusing on me when others are posting blatant spam. I look forward to hearing your absurd reasoning. | ||

I don't feel he's a good lynch right now since his play (though bad) is consistent with what I've seen him do as town before. As someone who was in the last newbie game, Vayne is playing quite similar. D1 he prodded a little and got a good number of people pissed at him then D2 he went quiet. He had a some suspicions on people but held back for the most part on revealing them. I did not like his play style that game as I felt the more information we had out, the better. | ||

Don't know anything about you. Your postings give me mixed feelings. On one hand you claim early that you wont be able to post much over the next few days which feels scummy. Though you are clearly active atm asking a good number of questions. Still figuring out the banter back and forth between you and bn. You seem to like to go fishing D1 by just asking a ton of questions without really giving out your opinion, though it is early D1. So I would say right now I have a null read. | ||

As for the shitfests, I gave my 2 cents on the vayne issue. I knew how he played from our previous game and I saw no reason to jump on the band wagon. As for the marvellosity/ Dandel Ion cluster fuck, I felt it was best I stay clear of it. It turned into some kind of argument of meta gaming that I was unfamiliar with. A lot of guys in here have played dozens of games together and can do the meta argument. Dandel started off by just spewing spam but then it seemed he was doing it for a reason. Then the whole thread seemed to be jumping from one person to another. No reason to jump into a shitfest if I have nothing to add, would be just spam. | ||

I didn't know the meta history between the two so I had nothing to say. I don't find much use for meta that I'm not familiar with so I tend to see it as not important in analysis. I've only had a game with jarjar and vayne so my use of meta is limited. I've already talked about vayne and jarjar hasnt posted enough in this game to really warrant a strong look. | ||

I get them some people like to use a lot of meta to play but the fact that he has always been town is irrelevant as every new game could be the first time you get scum. He also throws some spam in a number of his posts like this: On May 18 2013 04:36 s0Lstice wrote: /trustfall catch me WoS soo your question was: s0l can you talk about yourself? yea I can do that. I tend to be a fan of meta. I don't use it all the time...I use it in a manner similar to how BH was describing. I have a shitty win record, though I do get NKed early a fair amount. I have a virgin, unlynched neck. I'm usually pretty active. I like weird set-ups just as much as I like a good normal mini. I like ice cream, electric guitars, and words that sound like what they mean. I've noticed that there is a lot of spam in many guy's post so this might not be such a big deal. The thing that really bugs me is this post: On May 18 2013 03:40 s0Lstice wrote: Yup, both things are there. I said I'm always town because, like I said, some folks may find it helpful to know. On a personal note, I happen to think it's hilarious that I can't seem to ever draw scum. That's related to Stutters question that I missed. If you have never played scum before, chances are your first time isn't going to be so graceful. It's just one more piece of the puzzle; it helps me weight any nervousness/silence/inconsistency that I see. He keeps pushing this reliance on meta and I find it extremely scummy. He firsts points out that he has never rolled scum, then says that if you roll scum for the first time, you are going to have a bad time. His posts can be summed up in a nice simple sentence: I have never rolled scum and if I did I would be playing so much shittier that it would be obvious. His later posts seem to then abandon mention of meta and actually really focus on reading other players. He didn't jump on the vayne bandwagon like a lot of others did. I did like his read on goodkarma and did a good job of calling him out on his back and forth thoughts of jarjar. As of now I'd say he's not scum. I really dislike his meta play style but his subsequent posts have gotten better. | ||

Because, Whilst my meta on grush may not be enough to lynch him it sure as fuck isn't good enough for a town read or calling him a mislynch. As someone who hasn't played with grush before, his filter looks terrible. The whole starsenses meta argument doesn't seem helpful at all. The majority of his posts are just complete spam aside from his voting on vayne. Overall even if he is town, he's not helping. | ||

It's the same type of argument. What really helps get scum is to get people's opinions, have people take sides, and see if they defend them. grush hasn't done this and it bothers me. | ||

Anything I can say to defend myself I'm sure is gonna sound like more excuses to you. Is there something specific that you or someone is accusing me of that I should post a defense for? Your lurking is a huge problem and it seems you don't really care that people are upset that you are. Even if you have limited time, why not spend it filtering a player and getting an opinion on him off. This post feels like a delay of anything substantive. The best way you can defend yourself is to give me thoughts/opinions on the other players. vote is staying on you. | ||

When you think someone’s scum, it’s generally burning in your mind as you’re writing up your post.

He’s like “this guy looks kinda bad,” or “this guy is a shitty townie,” but when it comes to who’s actually scum he kinda doesn’t have much to say until his botched up vote post. I'm wondering if this is an attempted scum vote redirect on me at the last minute to save someone else. Your entire post is hinged on me have 0 scum reads that you are so happy to point out a number of times. This is a complete flat out lie, and given my small filter, a deliberate misreading of me.

GK first votes for stutters then unvotes because of explanation. He then votes for grush, then unvotes him because of 'consolidation'. On May 19 2013 02:15 goodkarma wrote: Since it looks like no one here is going to vote for Grush now that he said Starsenses several more times, I'll be changing my vote. I still feel he's scummy and would like to lynch him, but consolidation is important. Also, there's always the chance he will be vigi shot. Among scummy Grush and lurkers Sputnik and JarJar, one should likely be vigi shot. ##Unvote ##Vote: WaveofShadow On May 19 2013 02:58 goodkarma wrote: As for consolidation, yes it's a bit early. But given the last few games I've obs'ed / been in have had profound problems with this, I figured I'd rather push for it sooner than later. I feel Wave is a good lynch for today, so I have no issue switching my vote to him. He then switches votes to jarjar for his lurkiness. He then writes a whole big post on how BH is scum but unvotes when BH claims. Finally he switches to me. In his opinions of everyone post, he wrote how I was wishy washy and yet he did the exact same thing when he wrote about WoS. On May 19 2013 20:18 goodkarma wrote: WaveofShadow: I feel less good about lynching him right now. Looking through his filter, I see that he has an active involvement in the game. I'm not a fan of his playstyle, and the certainty of his statements about Grush and Sputnik were definitely scummy, but the way his reads evolve and the way he seems to actually care about what's going on in the thread indicates to me he's town (slight townread). He also said in that post that he still thought jarjar was scummy. So why change to me? I already deconstructed his argument in my previous post on the matter but I feel I should a few thoughts. GK put a good emphasis on consolidation and it feels odd to throw a vote on me as I had a town read from a few players. What I think is more striking is the hypocrisy in his post about wishy washy behavior which he himself did with Wos above. I wonder if he will stick with his vote on me or will he fold like he did on grush when he realized no one would support him on that vote. | ||

EVERYONE has to post a vote, so obviously you'll have to at some point make a single stance for a vote cycle. That you were so hesitant to make any kind of scumreads up until that point is the casepoint I made. This is distinctly different from how you played your only other game (where you were town), which can be referenced by everyone here: NMM XLI In said game, you were forthcoming with getting out scumreads, and showed a more active involvement with solving the game. Here, you seem more interested in giving an opinion here or there to show activity while not really sharing any scumreads. If you want to bring my meta into this then fine. the newbie game reads were a hell of a lot easier. My analysis has been the same in both games, posting analysis of players. Simply because some of my earlier analysis didnt come up scum doesnt mean that my play is different. Take my recent read on you that you haven't responded to. Called you scum for your consolidation and rampant vote changing. Your tunneling of me this late goes against everything you said about consolidation in your earlier posts. You are scum and your attempt to get a late day bandwagoning going is evident of it. | ||

yeah i do. I think he's overemphasizing meta way too much and holds double standards. Take me and WoS for example. On May 19 2013 02:15 goodkarma wrote: WaveofShadow, on the other hand, is a different matter. From what I remember of his play in The Game, he played pretty horribly. As town he was wishy washy about his stances on most players, and when he was nearly lynched the only thing that really saved him was that he blueclaimed. Here, he seems to be a lot more sure of himself in places, but in a way that doesn't really make sense to me from a town perspective. Sputnik, who basically made one scummy post and lurked, is "sure scum" to him. And Grush is "sure town" for saying starsenses. This has already been discussed, but the contrast from his townplay is what stands out to me. Further, he seems to really like asking people for scumreads. His questions don't seem to really have any purpose other than to make him look more active. Look at his filter and see how many times he asks a variation of "Who you think is scum?" It's a pretty pointless thing to ask, given everyone here is going to be giving their scumreads anyways. ##Unvote ##Vote: WaveofShadow Here he says that WoS is scum because he's more sure of himself now, than when he was when he was town, hence he's scum. If WoS was more wishy washy like he was in previous games, gf would be ok with that according to his own logic.

If this is where his analysis ends that would be at least consistent. He goes on later to state that being wishy washy is a complete scum trait. He's not consistent with his reasonings. Also he claims that in the newbie game i had suspects and evolving opinions. My reading on WoS can easily be considered an evolving opinion. One of my posts about WoS started off claiming he was scum but then explained he got better. How is that not an evolving opinion. If i called WoS scum first, and then in a second post said eh nvm, how would that be different. On May 19 2013 20:38 goodkarma wrote: As for spicy, he only discussed Solstice when you prodded him to.

As for my "spammy comments," look at the beginning of the game... lotta people wrote spam. Spam doesn't help town and thus seems scummy. Can you disagree with that?

So I've been through the filters multiple times, I'm left feeling like the scum are in the following group: BH, grush, dandel, jar jar, GK. BH for the slip, grush for what I just said, dandel for his continued desire to do nothing to help the town, JarJar for his suddenly appearing scumread on a pretty town DP, and GK because his meta cases have been bad to the point of being fabrications. These reasons are coupled with process of elimination via town reads. The last two are pretty interchangeable right now...I still wanna see how JarJar and GK behave in day 2, and to be fair I had a townread on JarJar before this little exhange we just had. Now I'm not so sure. If BH flips scum would you still think jarjar is scum? | ||

Should WoS change his playstyle one game from being wishy-washy and apologetic (as town) to being very sure of himself here, that's something that needs to be looked into. In general, when you see someone discussing having 100% certainty this guy's town and this guy's scum, it can be an indicator of privileged knowledge that only scum would be privy to. On the other hand, when you have someone like BH who's usually very assertive have little opinion on anyone, that can be a scumtell. In short, different people behave differently. I work with general scumtells for sure, but I also keep in consideration how people typically behave for both their town and scumgames. And then you discuss how your reading on WoS evolved over time, when you really didn't discuss him at all except when mixing up his name in your vote post... I really don't know what to make of your posting to date. On the one hand, it is super-scummy. On the other, it is very hard for me to believe that a scum would be so insanely careless. But then again, we have this post from you: So you have some awareness of how you could come off townie by looking insanely scummy (if that makes any sense...). I feel like I'm looking at your filter and I'm WIFOM-ing myself. The simplest explanation is that you're a newbie and as scum you would be less likely to have derped as hard as you have. And I'll stick with that assessment for now. I would really like to know what other scumreads you have other than myself and hopefully BH. Clarification: when i said my views were evolving I meant S0L and not WoS and was referring to this posting below. On May 18 2013 23:23 Spicydinosaur wrote: s0Lstice's filter comes up very scummy for me. He started off by posting about his meta and pointing out that he was never scum. I get them some people like to use a lot of meta to play but the fact that he has always been town is irrelevant as every new game could be the first time you get scum. He also throws some spam in a number of his posts like this: I've noticed that there is a lot of spam in many guy's post so this might not be such a big deal. The thing that really bugs me is this post: He keeps pushing this reliance on meta and I find it extremely scummy. He firsts points out that he has never rolled scum, then says that if you roll scum for the first time, you are going to have a bad time. His posts can be summed up in a nice simple sentence: I have never rolled scum and if I did I would be playing so much shittier that it would be obvious. His later posts seem to then abandon mention of meta and actually really focus on reading other players. He didn't jump on the vayne bandwagon like a lot of others did. I did like his read on goodkarma and did a good job of calling him out on his back and forth thoughts of jarjar. As of now I'd say he's not scum. I really dislike his meta play style but his subsequent posts have gotten better. | ||

Seems more like a 3P kill, given that there were more dangerous players alive who seemed more universal as townreads. If we flip BH, it practically confirms this suspicion, and it does make BH look quite terrible if I trust my analysis. IDK man, this game is hard. If BH flips town I'm really going to be upset. My feeling on the rayn kill is that it if it was a 3P kill, then GK is a highly likely to be the 3P killer. Rayne's posts D1 moved around a bit but a large portion was written dealing with GK. It's the only thing that could possibly justify the kill aside from the vig shots. The other possible interpretation I was thinking was that it was a mafia vig shot and they shot rayne because they thought the better targets had docs on them that night. | ||

And here are his explainations: I mean look @ that first post. He says he has a null read on WOS but that's where he was originally gonna put his vote? And then he says "A lot of his posts are full of self doubt and lack confidence." was supposed to refer to me. Does anyone really feel that way about my posts? The null read on WOS was my concluding thought when the post was published. When i began writing it I was going to vote WOS and was writing as such, but as I was filtering and building the case, I realized he was acting townie, hence the switch to a null read.

One of my biggest problems with him was his lack of post/excuse for postings which he has improved on. I thought his asking for town credit didn't feel scummy. He was taking a lot of heat D1 and when the BH slip happened, his response felt like a "i told you so!" Just felt like a new player reaction more than a scum. I also found it extremely unlikely that jarjar was bussing BH from the beginning, so if BH flips scum, I'd doubt that jarjar would also. The other reason is that others have jumped out more. BH with the slip, dandel not giving a fuck and the last second vote still annoys me, and then GK for his no reading role pm, his flimsy arguments and for possibly being the 3P killer. | ||

With Iamp flipping mason it would seem weird for a setup to have 2 town night masons. Just doesn't feel right. Also as Marv pointed out, BH's delayed postings are troubling and definitely scum indicative. | ||

Usually when hes accused hes very quick to fight back but hes kinda laying low. Wouldnt be surprised if hes telling his mafia team what to do after he dies or something. He fought back immediately after the slip and stayed up pretty late arguing with DP about it. The follow up is a complete void. | ||

I'm not a huge fan of meta arguments by themselves. If there are meta arguments + substantive claims in the current game then I could go along with it.

Obviously this is speculation but there were better shots for scum to take if it was a scum vig on Rayne. It's almost 100% certain scum killed iamp as they wouldn't want a confirmed town who is a strong player around another day. If he has kp that suggests a 3p read over scum. I think GK can be either mafia or 3p. So when I talked about him being scum that meant anti-town. In the future ill differentiate more so no confusion. But yeah if there is a 3p, my money right now is on GK. Rayne wasn't seen as a uber townie so it leaves a few theories. 1. Mafia vig shot b/c they figured marv and the other more likely townies could have medics on them. 2. Town vig who really fucked up. 3. 3p killer randoming. 4. 3p killer killed because rayne was getting onto them. Like i said before, given rayne's postings D1, it would make sense for a 3p GK to take him out. | ||

When you mention the role PM thing I'm assuming you're saying you think I was lying, which I've already addressed. My read on you had some very valid points. How is what I said about you garbage when you BLATANLY misrepresent your read on sputnik, and mis-speak who you're talking about on MULTIPLE occasions? At the very least, that is a CLEAR sign of a lack of investment in this game. As for 3P stuff, BH is getting lynched today, and when I do present my case I would like to do it right. I'm not going to rush it because you're angwy. I probably should have just kept it to myself until I post it, as this kind of thing inevitably happens, but rest assured it will be out there long before it needs to be considered for next lynch. As for this popping in and out thing, I don't respond to everything. Especially when arguements I've already replied to are similar to the ones being brought up now (such as stupid meta cases), or the answer to the questions are in my filter but people are too damned ignorant/lazy to look into it. And I may not be the most super-active guy in thread right now, but I'm comfortable with the direction of the game (outside of course this sentiment that I'm scum). Dandel and JJB should be lynched. I will be providing a bit more discussion on Dandel, but JJB has been discussed to death by both myself and others here in thread. And the 3P thing I'll get to during next night cycle. Thank you for confirming you are scum. You aren't going to rush your analysis because I'm angry? First of all I'm not angry and for you to assume so is scummy. You are artificially creating an excuse to not give out information. You say that BH is going to be lynched but want to wait to give out more info... why? Why not try to find out if there is a 3p killer now and not in the next cycle. Oh and my read on sputnik? dead on At this point I'm more sure that GK is scum more than I am BH. ##vote: goodkarma | ||

As far as you know, I'm scum jerking you around, but once I flip, you'll be like "he died for our sins... truly he was the best of us, and we let him down" I'll be like the Jesus Christ of this game. Calling bs on the bolded part. If you didn't have your slip, there wouldn't have been a singular focus on anyone at the start of D2. You HAD to say something today because of the mess you started.

The fact that people decided that based on this, they should vote me, is understandable. The fact that they decided that based on this, they should vote me and stop talking, is not. I mean, I guess it's totally understandable: people are lazy and dumb and mafia are good at imitating that kind of behavior. Even though I understand it, I don't condone it. Even during my tunnellest of tunnels, I try to still talk to people about other things. At this point you are going to get lynched since too many people are convinced you are scum. I suggest to just get as many reads off as you can as that is the best way to help town at this point. Dont' bother trying to do anything else as its a waste of time. No more self reflective posts, just reads. If you flip scum then we can just ignore it, but if you flip town, then we can possibly use it. | ||
