His conversation with Oats made me think he was scummy because of how irrational his approach was. I still don't understand why you would check yourself for sanity when it barely tells you anything. You should be checking others, not yourself. You can figure out whether you're sane based on their flips and you get a plethora of useful information.
While I think getmoript may be lying about his claim, I think he is more likely to be a VT pushing a strong scum read in TAA.
I cannot think of a single good reason why cDg would claim as town given a getmoript claim unless he started to speculate upon roles.
That being said, I would much prefer to lynch jrkirby or TG today. I think we should hold of on lynching potential blues unless we are certain that one of them is scum.
That last line. Explain what you meant by potential blues? Considering TAA had yet to claim @ that point. Is there some reason you knew that TAA was potentially blue? No, I didn't know TAA was potentially blue. TAA was null-scum at that time, but not in my top 3 scumreads(Close, but not quite there). When he claimed blue, specifically roleblocker, I knew he had to be axed.

If you were looking at some of the recent posts that you've made from the outside, they would look really odd and difficult to explain. They really look like you're trying to avoid lynching someone who was redchecked while not calling that person town/not distrusting the cop claim. You may be town and Lieutenant Angrypants may be wrong in calling you scum, but your whole mindset on things since getmoript's claim has been funky. Everyone else isn't going one way because they're overlooking some likely scenario, imo.

If you want me to vote for anyone other than TG or jrkirby today, you're going to have to make a really solid case against them and convince me. Given TAA's reaction post, you think it's more likely that: (1) getmoript is not actually a cop, fakeclaiming a red check on a scumread of his, who responded in that manner but is town AND TG or jrkirby is scum (which I still agree with on TG) than (2) getmoript either is or isn't a cop, nobody cares, and TAA is scum ? No, I don't think it is likely that getmoript is not actually a cop. I'm saying it is a definite possibility considering how adamant he has been about his read of TAA. TAA could definitely be scum but considering that I have nothing to go off of except a cop role claim that may or may not be sane, I'm not willing to blindly follow the train on TAA just yet. If you can convince me of his alignment either way, I will definitely be willing to vote him. It's not just about whether TAA is scum or not (and seriously, that reaction was super duper scummy). You're going to vote someone, you're going to have a scumread SOMEWHERE. So it's not solely a question of whether TAA is town or scum. It's a question of whether you trust a different read of yours SO MUCH that you think it's more likely that read of yours is scum than TAA. All of TAA's posts don't HAVE to be scummy, there may be some things that are difficult to explain. But that's true of everyone (probably), and you're going to have that problem with any lynch candidate, TAA or whoever you would prefer. You're almost hesitating about TAA because he may or may not be scum (before this claim stuff that you jumped on). But that's true of most anyone, and the combination of the possible check + definite reaction is, imo, a much larger indicator of scumdiddlyumptiousness than anything you can point out in another person's filter. Note that his reaction wasn't that getmoript was LYING, wasn't that he's town and doesn't want to bother putting up a fight, but was that getmoript was cheating because he didn't even make a case. He didn't just get called scum and choose not to fight it (initially), he got called scum and responded by saying it was lame and getmoript should have made a case. The problem a townie has with a redcheck on them is "I'm not red." The problem a mafia member has with a redcheck on them is "Boooooooo." Bolded relevant. At the time, I trusted my reads of jrkirby and TanGeng to enough to offset the likelihood that all of the following were true regarding getmoript: 1) Telling the truth about his claim 2) Target was not framed 3) Is a sane cop(implying not paranoid/insane)
The probability of all of these events occurring simultaneously was not particularly high in my mind, so I thought that it was be best to trust my own scumreads before jumping on getmoript's wagon.
You make good points about TAA, all of which I have considered and are part of the reason why I'm currently voting for him.

I disagree. I think I am the only one who is reacting correctly to getmoript's claim, accusation, and TAA's initial feeble defense.
Here is the quote in question.
On July 24 2013 06:21 TheAwesomeAll wrote: claiming detective instead of making a case is cheating The correct rational town response is to consider whether: 1) Town would do this when accused. 2) Scum would do this when accused.
1-> This is bad town play. Town probably wouldn't do this when accused. The correct town play would be to post a defense of themselves and counter-attack their accuser. 2-> Scum wouldn't do this when accused either. This is terrible scum play. Why would they bring about unwarranted suspicion upon themselves?
Thus, we can conclude that TAA's post is bad, but not 100% alignment indicative. It's bad play, sure, but I don't think you can say that it implicates him beyond reasonable doubt.
As time went on, I started to grow on the TAA lynch. TAA didn't defend himself for a long time, making me more suspicious of him.
The nail in the coffin came when he claimed blue. It was far too convenient. TG had just claimed rb'd and it looks like TAA is using the claim as an opportunity to exonerate himself. Add to this that a bunch of other blues have already claimed that look less scummy than he does and I no longer could justify not lynching him.

Just because it isn't good scum play doesn't mean it's not human nature. It's FAR more likely to come from scum because of mindset. This is a fair point. I hadn't considered that.

I didn't really understand Oats' post so I'll just respond to JJD.
You said "we should hold of on lynching potential blues" when trying to talk people out of voting TAA even though we had no reason to think he was blue @ the time. Tell me how this isn't a slip. I was never trying to talk people out of lynching TAA. That's where you go wrong. I said hold off on lynching potential blues because I didn't want anyone voting getmoript, Onegu, or cDg. Remember, TAA hadn't claimed yet, so I didn't know he was blue.
|
I think you should all hold off on your accusations of me until the flip. I'm done answering these questions. Austin had the only good ones anyway.
|
I'm sorry. I had to attend to my other game before getting to this one because I'm being pressured there. Will read thread and get back soon.
|
Okay well, it looks like there have been very few developments since I left. I will say that my biggest scumreads right now --other than TAA -- are TG and jrkirby.
I would endorse a shot on either one. I don't think you can justifiably shoot anyone else.
cDg is the only person I'm still wavering on, but by process of elimination, I'm pretty sure we found the entire scumteam if TAA flips scum.

If people are still not convinced about kirby, have a look at this post I made a while back. I think it's still quite relevant.

If you want me to look at something in particular, let me know. I kinda skimmed the thread, so I might've missed a bit.

God, I'm so bad at seeing scum until the votes come in. He returns 30 minutes later with this post that basically says he has no scumreads now. He also is making excuses for his bad play by downplaying his "mistakes" as newb town. Why does he have such an apologetic tone to all his posts? So far, he has contributed nothing to the thread.

I have even more scumread on oats than I did before. I'm not sure about DrH, I'd prefer to see how he plays tonight and tomorrow before I come to a conclusion on him. Another apologetic post.

I think it does a good job of connecting kirby and TG as likely scumbuddies as well.

Who you should shoot:
Tier 1(High Priority): jrkirby, TanGeng Tier 2(Low Priority): JJD, cDg cDg claimed cop. It will be useful to see what he says about his check tomorrow. JJD seems a bit too aggressive to be mafia. He's also tunneling me heavily which seems stupid if you are scum. I think everyone else is town.

This JJD guy is playing really badly if he's town. If he's scum, then whatever. I don't understand why you would deliberately attack me when I'm basically confirmed town.
