Definitely lynch all liars, there's only 1 or 2 scenarios where a town would lie so it is not worth it, and yes lynch all lurkers too, unless there are obvious lynches.

Stupid obvious shit in response to a question that asks for a stupid obvious response is not lynch worthy

Here we have squibbles pointing out what I find to be obvious but what many of us failed to say. He didn't need to backtrack but he did because this is an important point, it isn't beating a dead horse and implies that he'd like further discussion if this arises in the future, I like this guy. Also agrees with not posting bs spam. +++++
Would like to hear more when he's back from work.

I'm liking this post, yet, it seems this game he is going all out aggressive on lurkers. Lurkers annoy me yes but he hasn't really added anything yet in terms of proper content other than elaborating his policy when asked which increases my suspicions of people that are rating him as a town player for now

Is a skilled player and I would hate to lose him as town.
I actually do somewhat know his style, we were both in a game with him earlier, and that's why I said I need to be careful on how I read him, since he's a likely misread for me. Since it seems to be just you and me here, let's talk about something. Your thoughts on Squibbles' first post? Can you be a little more specific? I thought I addressed it right after it, above my Chloe post... You addressed the content itself, but I was more curious of your thoughts of it as a first post. Did it seem like the way a town player would enter the game? http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=424098Check my reads. Why? You are suspicious? Okay, I see your track record on figuring out first posts isn't exactly stellar :D I want to see people talk about each other, because that makes the game much easier to figure out. I consider his first post pretty much null from a completely new player. On that matter, my reads so far: slightly town on DeusXmachina and Alakaslam, null on the rest.
however he hasn't had to talk about other people so I cannot give a good read on him whatsoever yet. If you read this lonemeow I want your full impressions on iVLosK! and Slam.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What I am REALLY quizzical about are why people are riding iVLosK!'s dick so fucking hard, he implies he hate's wishy washy bull shit but has provided absolutely 0 content in his posts so far:

This is his only thing that has any merit and it's a line about him agreeing with a post.... like seriously I question the people that lean town on this guy...

For a guy that states he hates people that talk about "stupid obvious shit" he sure is hypocritical. He's also just devolved into talking about lynching lurkers in his last post, again, no content.

Okay, sounds good. Biggest scum reads so far, Xzavier and reps. Lol at reps if he becomes a day 1 lynch again. Why am I suspicious? Well, they are lurking, and as I previously mentioned, lurking will not be tolerated. Pretty much neutral on everyone. Although, I am leaning slightly town on JAT. Careful of posting pseudo lurker lists... Look. That is the easies thing for scum to do to try and look town, 1, and 2, if we have vigs, they can shoot into lurkers and we lynch other lurkers till there are none. So it is established that you can't lurk and get by this game. Stating their scumminess other than to explain a vote on them is now irrelevant, lets stick to discussion about actives. Then, before the deadline (close as you can get) vote for a lurker or someone you find scummy- who may have more of a chance turning out to be scum than someone who wanted blue or irl'ed or whatever causes people to do this stuff.
I like this post but by this nature he should also assume that ivlosk is now scummy (after reading my post/his filter), he has a habit of being swayed easily by people who are expressing pro town interests which you all need to watch out for too. Obviously the game is early and you can't read too much into what he is saying so press him lots <3
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
JAT hasn't really added anything other than his dislike of fakeclaims, can't read into him at all so would like to hear more from him too, will push him on people when he is around.

He says it is pointless to post the obvious but many people obviously have asked the lurkers to speak, why is it useful to hear it a 4th time? Just because he said something you liked does not really mean it is a contribution in terms of our progression, it is a scummy move to do that and I want you to understand that for future reference. I find it interesting you aren't keen to pick up on that though

I'm hurt babe. I've already examined all of your filters earlier today while waiting for a truck to come in to the warehouse. Well what, I mean, I played along- wait a minute. So Holyflare, why didn't I get any fire for playing along with iVLosk? Did you notice that I posted about "Watching him with 75 energy" & stuff? & "Can't touch him without an upgrade"? But then I was all  iVLosK! the professional scum, and look who Holy tries to lynch. Dang it everyone scummy again, Please xplain ppl. Especially you Holyflare? Was that a meta blind eye or ?
I have played a game with you and have become pretty clear on your spam and contribution posts, you have actually posted reads and are willing to entertain scenarios, much like i am, that can force information out of people. While yes you have spam you also have useful bits of info. Ivlosk has really nothing in his favour so far, not that I am totally accusing him but I do not like hypocrisy and he has not contributed YET. This is still obviously early and I'd like to hear more from him.

My current top scum suspects, in no particular order: Squibbles - is participating in the game, but hasn't really produced any content nor reads iVLosK! - it seems to me that his play is different from last time, but that's weak so I'm prepared to watch him for now reps)squishy - although he finally gave some reads that only happened after being pressured so I'm still suspicious
Had a relatively strong town read on Holyflare, but his useless (and very non-committal) vote on Xzavier makes me a little worried I might be misreading.
If he posts at 6.59 he will not be modkilled, hence the placeholder vote, it can be moved anytime I feel like it onto someone more suspicious. It is also madatory to vote for someone otherwise you will also probably be warned/modkilled, if I was to suddenly become inundated with things to do later at least my vote would be on a worthy person. It is more suspicious that people have not voted at all with only 3 hours left to go. This is also a plurality lynch meaning that the person with the most votes, not majority will be voted off. Do you really want to vote off the guy that has at least said something rather than the person that has said nothing?

You agreed with JAT that relying on modkills would be bad so why have you gone 180 on squibbles when you originally liked his first post?

My current top scum suspects, in no particular order: Squibbles - is participating in the game, but hasn't really produced any content nor reads iVLosK! - it seems to me that his play is different from last time, but that's weak so I'm prepared to watch him for now reps)squishy - although he finally gave some reads that only happened after being pressured so I'm still suspicious
Had a relatively strong town read on Holyflare, but his useless (and very non-committal) vote on Xzavier makes me a little worried I might be misreading. If he posts at 6.59 he will not be modkilled, hence the placeholder vote, it can be moved anytime I feel like it onto someone more suspicious. It is also madatory to vote for someone otherwise you will also probably be warned/modkilled, if I was to suddenly become inundated with things to do later at least my vote would be on a worthy person. It is more suspicious that people have not voted at all with only 3 hours left to go. This is also a plurality lynch meaning that the person with the most votes, not majority will be voted off. Do you really want to vote off the guy that has at least said something rather than the person that has said nothing? A last second vote from Xzavier would be tantamount to admitting he is scum. If he does, we just lynch him D2. I would much prefer to allow him to be modkilled and we can see what his replacement has to say. I much prefer reps or sqibbles for the lynch and will vote squibbles because multiple players have stated that reps is always like this. ##Vote: Squibbles
You do NOT want to accidently vote off a town member if they have contributed, even 1 or 2 posts, compared to somebody who has done none for now.
--------------------------------------------------------------------- I honestly do not understand how people can think you are acting town when you flip flop all over the place on almost every post you make:

Nothing has been noted in your posts since then that implies you'd even think about modkills or squibbles voting, you just seem to be bandwagoning with no valid reason for the easy lynch.

There was no condition, I await further posts implies you liked what he said and want to hear more because his contribution was apt. Xzavier and Reps were your main targets and you backed off reps because some people said he was playing like last game, you even 'dislike' (+ Show Spoiler +On August 16 2013 05:26 iVLosK! wrote: Using meta on noobies is usually useless, in my experience. ) previous noob game metas but are willing to accept when people talk about it enough to sway your vote.

No, it's a plurality lynch system, whoever has the most votes at the end of the day is voted off not majority, I've even stated that before and so did somebody else earlier when you said we needed more people.

Okay, sounds good. Biggest scum reads so far, Xzavier and reps. Lol at reps if he becomes a day 1 lynch again. Why am I suspicious? Well, they are lurking, and as I previously mentioned, lurking will not be tolerated. Pretty much neutral on everyone. Although, I am leaning slightly town on JAT. Careful of posting pseudo lurker lists... Look. That is the easies thing for scum to do to try and look town, 1, and 2, if we have vigs, they can shoot into lurkers and we lynch other lurkers till there are none. So it is established that you can't lurk and get by this game. Stating their scumminess other than to explain a vote on them is now irrelevant, lets stick to discussion about actives. Then, before the deadline (close as you can get) vote for a lurker or someone you find scummy- who may have more of a chance turning out to be scum than someone who wanted blue or irl'ed or whatever causes people to do this stuff. I like this post but by this nature he should also assume that ivlosk is now scummy (after reading my post/his filter), he has a habit of being swayed easily by people who are expressing pro town interests which you all need to watch out for too.

However the squibbles voting is intriguing. It is a policy lynch based on what may be IRL circumstances. Is there actually something wrong with his posting, other than the lack of it?
If not, may want to reconsider... ... As according to his own deadlines, he will likely be modkilled. It is 9:15 on the west coast.
Any better reasons though? As the same goes for Xzavier...

Also, now that you're here, can I have a few reads from you? To me this looks like a town motivated mind set. He's actively watching what people are doing and how they are reacting to things and trying to see the town/scum reasoning behind each action. Actually by quoting these I realize Slam also voted on Xzavier as a place holder at first. wtf. Sheep placeholder at that, scummy as hell.

This is behavior of somebody who wants to look like they are contributing without actually putting anything of worth into a very large post very early into the game when there isn't really much information to go on.

Firstly, this was right at the start of the day, not much information to go off but I wasn't around before and it is a hell of a lot more contribution than people had been doing previously, I was pointing out what people were doing differently from last game, what I liked so far and what the fuck people were thinking about iVLosK! with so much bs floating around. The top that was being talked about was peoples views on lynching lurkers and it got us nowhere, this actually got us off that stale topic and got people talking, more than anyone had done so far.

You are taking all of my posts out of context, I would have asked these questions within my bigger post and then it would have seemed more reasonable, possibly to you, but maybe those people would ignore it. I wanted to see who was around before I asked the questions in the first place. I asked for 2 different people to give me their reads because I had a plan set around it to retrieve more information, so I asked people to give me reads on a person I thought was scum and a person I thought was town to see their responses.
As for IVLosK I cannot comprehend what gives you a town read on actions like that. He contributes nothing, when pressured adds nothing in his defence and was going to be lynched off with nothing valuable to save his life. What speaks town for you there? A townie should want to do everything he can to stay alive but no, nothing like that happened.
As far as the Xzavier vote goes, it is NEVER a good idea to no-lynch on the first day. EVER. Like how does that even make sense for you to say? It's practically a free night for scum to do what they want, at least with A lynch we have a 2/9 chance to hit a scum, especially with a no poster who may vote last second. I would have switched my vote to iVLosK quite happily if I was around at the time, but read into it what you will I'd rather celebrate my girlfriends birthday than tell her I have to pop out to switch my vote on mafia.
As far as my reads go, I have a lot of information from the last day that will be helpful. I will post these in a bit after I've had some time to relax.

"A common misconception in a majority lynch system is that no-lynch is bad due to the notion that flips are the only source of information. While flips are useful in confirming information, there are many cases where it is clear that town is bandwagoning a player and will lead to a mislynch. In most cases, a bandwagon lynch on a townie is not going to produce any useful information. Without serious competition for a lynch target, the mafia don’t have any incentive to either jump on or stay off the bandwagon. Unless there is insurmountable evidence that the target is mafia, a quick bandwagon usually suggests that the player is town. Don’t be afraid to no-lynch in this situation. Going with the flow and agreeing to bandwagon a townie stifles discussion and allows the mafia to coast through the day without giving up any information. It is better to force the discussion and risk a no-lynch than to go along with an obvious town bandwagon."
While this is plurality lynch the logic still applies. Why do you think no-lynch is bad? We'd still have another townie if you had done it, what a terrible thing to have right? Instead you lynched a guy who made 0 posts. what you NEVER do is lynch a guy with 0 posts. He either makes a last minute vote and gets himself killed D2 or is modkilled.
Also you were around with plenty of time to change your vote. You made your big post on him after you voted on Xzavier so enough with that bullshit, you simply chose not to move your vote.
but fine newb townie is what it seems you're going for and I can kind of see it. I can agree that Slam looks worse than you at this point anyway.
My post on LosK was made after I voted yes, I wanted to see his response but I see he didn't fucking write one, I didn't expect him to sit there like a mute tool and not reply to it. The rest of what I said still holds true, nobody was voting on him yada yada.
I don't know if you are a nooby or are just kidding me about but do the math please. In a 9 player game with 2 scum, you lose upon mislynching for a third time. If you no lynch, you can only mislynch once.
There's 9 players and 2 of them contain scum so that's 7 townies left. If we no-lynch then we can only mislynch 1 time. If we lynch the first day on the 0 poster or a random person then we can mislynch up to a 3rd time. So we can gain an extra day of lynches just because we vote off the first day. Statistically it is ALWAYS better to lynch on the first night, that post you referenced implies no-lynching can be used at any time in the game which is obvious.

This is to get people to shape the fuck up, it's not going to be a read on everyone because that would get me killed but rather I want you to look at the overall shape of the game so far. What has been happening, who has been pushing who? Who has died and why? Who has not contributed anything?
When you can look at it objectively things become incredibly transparent. Koshi was a replacement for a town member, he was killed within the first night of him joining. Why? It's because he was on the right track and had it all figured out (I mean it's not rocket science anyway). I therefore only want to focus on the 3 people that were most suspicious to him: iVLosK!, Alakaslam and Deus. Yes, they might not ALL be scum, but at least one of them is probably. The real question is who should we be lynching today?

Lying won't really tell you much. Lurkers > Liars. Obviously lynching confirmed town because of a lie would be silly, but what about someone most have a weak scum read (or even null) on who's caught lying? Still prefer a lurker lynch over him? While we're on the topic of lurking, do you think there's any real difference between lurking and posting but being useless? Would you (policy) lynch someone who posts but doesn't have any real content? If you have a weak scum read on someone and they lie, well that might be evidence against them. I would try to understand the intentions behind the lie. Not crazy about the lynch liars policy. I don't know how to define lurking, but people who are being useless are equally as bad as lurkers. In fact, in some situations, I think spammers can be more detrimental to town than lurkers. I equate non-contribution to scum. I am glad you brought this up.

These 2 posts (and a few more) are where he completely devolved into off-topicness and then lightly throws in a question of asking for reads.
However, these things pale in comparison to what the fuck happened at the voting stage. This is exactly the same scenario as last game too which is beyond annoying because last game he did the same thing and was town.

He has a "bad feeling" that makes him completely switch his vote, like what, there is NO reasoning whatsoever for that. Obviously there are several conclusions that can be drawn from this:
1) He was actually indecisive. Although for no reason. At that point in time after being sure IvLosK! would be the first lynch he had second and seemingly third thoughts, his voting pattern seems to be that of a extremely indecisive townsperson that has trouble seeing everything in perspective, although this could be because of #2.
2) He was surprised by the towns vote concensus, knew IvLosK! was scum and had to bandwagon, saw that I had an afk vote on Xzavier and took that into consideration. However, it should be shown that Slam changed his vote to Xzavier AFTER Deus did, he saw that he could bandwagon and kill a townie, taking his vote off a scum counterpart for a free town kill would be easy seeing as 2 people were already on him so he would take less flak for it because other townies would be supporting his decision.

So scummy like "ok let's bus vlosk and then not do it lol and since I think he is so bamcis I should just not make sense" or I don't even know what my scum motive for that mistake is. ) he explains that he was undertermined and vote switching BEFORE the deadline, however, deus vote was after the deadline and so was slams switch to Xzavier. However, the timing is what strikes me as scummy. Slam revotes LosK! at 7.03 and that is the exact same time that Deus voted Xzavier, 7.05 is when slam switched to Xzavier so he could have enough time to see xzavier being lynch candidate and can move off to the easy town lynch.

And finally, I like Holy for town, only slightly, because he was the first one to get some solid discussion going, other than the policy chat. That leaves 5 other people. Of which my favorite targets for scum and lynching day 1 are xzavier, reps, and squibbs. These lurkers on hindering discussion, they are not putting forth new ideas, and they are not scum hunting. I will continue my firm stance on this, lurking is scummy. Reps why did you poke in today but not really contribute? Xzavier why are you not posting? READ THIS SHIT.

+ Show Spoiler +On August 19 2013 14:23 DeusXmachina wrote:So here it is, like promised, my long post. My so much writing that some of you may not read this post. Overview:I. Introduction II. Day 1 Voting III. Omni, iV, and HolyIV. Lone/JATV. Slam V. Final thoughtsI. Introduction To prepare for this post I went back and reread the entire game. In addition I studied filters. The reasoning behind this is simple, my early game reads were weak, almost non-existent, and I wanted to start fresh and unbiased. In this post I will go over all my town reads and more importantly my scum reads. I tried to base my reads on a variety of factors. Even if they are not entirely accurate, they are well thought out and will illicit responses. II. Day 1 VotingIt is almost comically to see everyone so caught up on day 1 Xzavier voting. Right off the bat I will say that the day 1 voting catastrophe is a perfect opportunity for scum to mislead town. Furthermore, it is irrelevant to scum hunting, therefor any analysis based off of day 1 votes is useless, and possibly scummy. I will explain both of these points. Why is the day 1 voting catastrophe irrelevant to scum hunting? Well, to begin, look at the candidates. We had iV, Squibbles, reps, and Xzavier. Two of these candidates we know to be town, xzavier and reps, and the other two were arguable in that we did not know if they were scum or town. The fact of the matter is, before the day 1 lynch there was no clear scum favorite. Okay, that's the setup. Point 1: It would be a huge misstep for scum to vote xzavier last minute. Why would scum a) put themselves under so much scrutiny by switching votes last minute and b) take their vote off of a controversial lynch target? It would be absolutely horrible play by scum. At the time several people had what I would call a weak scum read on iV. So what do you think, that between slam, holy, and myself one of us was trying to protect a fellow scum? HA! That's ludicrous.The biggest advocates of scum reads based on the Xzavier lynch aren't even convinced iV is scum. Furthermore, if in light of new information we find out that iV is scum, wouldn't that reflect poorly on the people who didn't vote for him? The whole argument that scum voted for xzavier is bs. Of the 4 potential candidates for lynching its likely that three of them are town. It is just as likely that scum voted for Squibbles, or scum voted for iV. So here is thing. My vote on xzavier is because I genuinely thought he was the best candidate. I did not believe iV was scum, and I was neutral on Squibbs. To me, it genuinely seems like slam was in the same boat. I cannot speak for holy. If I have lost you, ill reiterate, simple and sweet: Interpreting a vote on xzavier as scummy is asinine. It is a terrible basis for a scum read. And most importantly the day 1 lynching catastrophe is a perfect opportunity for scum to lead town, by targeting the wrong people, by building cases on the wrong people. And for this, I apologize. I should have know better than to let something like this happen. Quickly, last thing, why the hell are people looking at my meta and saying, "oh he is not as aggressive as last game, that's scummy". We had a discussion on meta during policy chat and came to the conclusion that is not very useful in newb games. Furthermore, how much do you have to fucking compare? 2 games, of course I am not going to play the exact same in my only two games. Which brings me to an interesting point: that is similar to one of the arguments against iV. Might be scummy to make that argument, or bad town. II. Omni, iV, and Holy There is so much that can be said about these individuals. 1 scum, 2 scum, or no scum? Are they connected? Why the attacks on each other? I wanted to talk about them together, to compare mentalities, contributions, etc. Furthermore, I think that it is very likely that 1 is scum, and is attacking/being attacked with scum motives. So let's begin. OmniI had a neutral read on Squibbles so that does not affect my read on Omni. The first thing he does upon entering the game is post some quick, poorly thought out scum and town reads. He makes a really poor case against me initially, more on that later. + Show Spoiler +On August 18 2013 07:39 OmniEulogy wrote:Show nested quote +On August 18 2013 07:02 Koshi wrote:On August 18 2013 07:02 OmniEulogy wrote: what's up guys.

I'm getting a newbie town feeling from him and with the amount he's posting if he is scum it wont take long for him to slip. For that reason I'm ok with him currently. I've never played with Deus but people say he's an aggressive townie. I'm not seeing any of that from this game. He's been asking really bad fluff questions which would be easy for scum to imitate to pretend to be contributing, his vote on Xzavier and his reason behind it were terrible or rather his lack of a reason. Then after the lynch on Xzavier he goes after Holy for something he was fine before and even said he thought Holy was town for. I'd say out of all the players he's my top scum read right now. And then Holy votes for Xzavier as a "place holder" never to take his vote off him. Very scummy behavior considering he goes for the easy lynch, and a way to avoid needing to actually come up with a reason to vote for somebody. As far as town reads go I had a newbie town read on Reps and so in turn I believe Koshi is town. JAT is my strongest town read in the game at the moment slight town read on iVLosK! and the rest are all neutral as I still have to go through the filters again. I'd really like to know why Slam jumped his vote around so much asap and why the hell all three of you (Holy, Deus, Slam) thought it was a good idea to lynch Xzavier. So what does he do? Jumps on the Xzavier vote fuck-up train. In a way, he mimics Koshi, but doesn't really offer anything new to the table. If I was scum I would do exactly what he is doing, use the day 1 lynch opportunity, and come in loud and big to appear active and town. After that he has a couple posts that target holy, ending in a case against holy, then drops holy. + Show Spoiler +On August 18 2013 08:02 OmniEulogy wrote:Show nested quote +On August 18 2013 07:49 Holyflare wrote:On August 18 2013 07:39 OmniEulogy wrote:On August 18 2013 07:02 Koshi wrote:On August 18 2013 07:02 OmniEulogy wrote: what's up guys.

I like how you ignore everything I've said the entirety of the game just to focus on the person I put my vote on. It was my girlfriends birthday today (went out yesterday for it/party today) so I left my vote on the safest person so far. If he posted once and voted he'd be still in the game and I would NOT be alright with that, I would 100% not be alright with wasting 2 days just so we could fucking waste another day talking about him and wasting the day on him. That's a pretty massive issue.... the objective isn't to find the safest person to vote for and then do it as town..... Your reason of not wanting to get rid of somebody who might contribute doesn't work in this case. Xzavier had literally not made a single post, was very likely to be modkilled and you had stronger feelings against another player but you kept your vote on him because it was safer? Am I reading that right? Safer for what? Town on D1 doesn't need to worry about what the safe vote is. if you wanted to be safe why didn't you just ##Vote:No-Lynch instead of putting it on somebody who wouldn't defend himself. I'm fairly certain I just got that last part wrong, would a mod be kind enough to tell me/us what the correct format is to vote for a no-lynch?

I actually do somewhat know his style, we were both in a game with him earlier, and that's why I said I need to be careful on how I read him, since he's a likely misread for me. Since it seems to be just you and me here, let's talk about something. Your thoughts on Squibbles' first post? Can you be a little more specific? I thought I addressed it right after it, above my Chloe post... You addressed the content itself, but I was more curious of your thoughts of it as a first post.

Okay, I see your track record on figuring out first posts isn't exactly stellar :D I want to see people talk about each other, because that makes the game much easier to figure out. I consider his first post pretty much null from a completely new player. On that matter, my reads so far: slightly town on DeusXmachina and Alakaslam, null on the rest. however he hasn't had to talk about other people so I cannot give a good read on him whatsoever yet.

Okay, sounds good. Biggest scum reads so far, Xzavier and reps. Lol at reps if he becomes a day 1 lynch again. Why am I suspicious? Well, they are lurking, and as I previously mentioned, lurking will not be tolerated. Pretty much neutral on everyone. Although, I am leaning slightly town on JAT. Careful of posting pseudo lurker lists... Look. That is the easies thing for scum to do to try and look town, 1, and 2, if we have vigs, they can shoot into lurkers and we lynch other lurkers till there are none. So it is established that you can't lurk and get by this game. Stating their scumminess other than to explain a vote on them is now irrelevant, lets stick to discussion about actives. Then, before the deadline (close as you can get) vote for a lurker or someone you find scummy- who may have more of a chance turning out to be scum than someone who wanted blue or irl'ed or whatever causes people to do this stuff. I like this post but by this nature he should also assume that ivlosk is now scummy (after reading my post/his filter), he has a habit of being swayed easily by people who are expressing pro town interests which you all need to watch out for too.

However the squibbles voting is intriguing. It is a policy lynch based on what may be IRL circumstances. Is there actually something wrong with his posting, other than the lack of it?
If not, may want to reconsider... ... As according to his own deadlines, he will likely be modkilled. It is 9:15 on the west coast.
Any better reasons though? As the same goes for Xzavier... So if squib is preferable guess what When I dropped my vote on Squibbles I was fully expecting him to speak up before the deadline as he had said he's reading the thread during EU daytime.

Also, now that you're here, can I have a few reads from you? To me this looks like a town motivated mind set. He's actively watching what people are doing and how they are reacting to things and trying to see the town/scum reasoning behind each action. Actually by quoting these I realize Slam also voted on Xzavier as a place holder at first. wtf. Sheep placeholder at that, scummy as hell. Add that to how much his vote jumped around and he makes me pretty nervous I think Deus looks pretty scummy as well and also mentioned he wanted a "safe" place to put his vote. After looking through his filter carefully though I no longer think he's the scummiest out of all three. It's possible that Omni begins pushing a lynch on Holy, using the voting catastrophe, and drops it when it doesn't seem to be working. There is a little tiff between these two. So i ask myself, would scum bus each other in this way? Unlikely. So it's safe to say both are not scum. So from here I tried to look at who is pushing a case for the wrong reasons?

I agree with you completely when you say that nobody should vote for a guy with literally 0 posts. Town should NEVER lynch the "easiest" target which it seems like they did... that's complete scum mentality. Town lynch the scummiest players not the easiest ones -.- ... I'm also really upset that three people didn't even vote which makes it even harder to sort it out. so far I think I'm pretty happy with my reads right now though I think Slam really sticks out to me as scummy for jumping around on his votes so much, even to the point of voting for Xzavier on two seperate occasions, however he has been one of the most consistant contributors in the game albeit very spammy. I'm getting a newbie town feeling from him and with the amount he's posting if he is scum it wont take long for him to slip. For that reason I'm ok with him currently. I've never played with Deus but people say he's an aggressive townie. I'm not seeing any of that from this game. He's been asking really bad fluff questions which would be easy for scum to imitate to pretend to be contributing, his vote on Xzavier and his reason behind it were terrible or rather his lack of a reason. Then after the lynch on Xzavier he goes after Holy for something he was fine before and even said he thought Holy was town for. I'd say out of all the players he's my top scum read right now. And then Holy votes for Xzavier as a "place holder" never to take his vote off him. Very scummy behavior considering he goes for the easy lynch, and a way to avoid needing to actually come up with a reason to vote for somebody. As far as town reads go I had a newbie town read on Reps and so in turn I believe Koshi is town. JAT is my strongest town read in the game at the moment slight town read on iVLosK! and the rest are all neutral as I still have to go through the filters again. I'd really like to know why Slam jumped his vote around so much asap and why the hell all three of you (Holy, Deus, Slam) thought it was a good idea to lynch Xzavier. I like how you ignore everything I've said the entirety of the game just to focus on the person I put my vote on. It was my girlfriends birthday today (went out yesterday for it/party today) so I left my vote on the safest person so far.

I actually do somewhat know his style, we were both in a game with him earlier, and that's why I said I need to be careful on how I read him, since he's a likely misread for me. Since it seems to be just you and me here, let's talk about something. Your thoughts on Squibbles' first post? Can you be a little more specific? I thought I addressed it right after it, above my Chloe post... You addressed the content itself, but I was more curious of your thoughts of it as a first post. Did it seem like the way a town player would enter the game? http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=424098Check my reads. Why? You are suspicious? Okay, I see your track record on figuring out first posts isn't exactly stellar :D I want to see people talk about each other, because that makes the game much easier to figure out. I consider his first post pretty much null from a completely new player. On that matter, my reads so far: slightly town on DeusXmachina and Alakaslam, null on the rest. however he hasn't had to talk about other people so I cannot give a good read on him whatsoever yet.

Okay, sounds good. Biggest scum reads so far, Xzavier and reps. Lol at reps if he becomes a day 1 lynch again. Why am I suspicious? Well, they are lurking, and as I previously mentioned, lurking will not be tolerated. Pretty much neutral on everyone. Although, I am leaning slightly town on JAT. Careful of posting pseudo lurker lists... Look. That is the easies thing for scum to do to try and look town, 1, and 2, if we have vigs, they can shoot into lurkers and we lynch other lurkers till there are none. So it is established that you can't lurk and get by this game. Stating their scumminess other than to explain a vote on them is now irrelevant, lets stick to discussion about actives. Then, before the deadline (close as you can get) vote for a lurker or someone you find scummy- who may have more of a chance turning out to be scum than someone who wanted blue or irl'ed or whatever causes people to do this stuff.

Firstly, this was right at the start of the day, not much information to go off but I wasn't around before and it is a hell of a lot more contribution than people had been doing previously, I was pointing out what people were doing differently from last game, what I liked so far and what the fuck people were thinking about iVLosK! with so much bs floating around. The top that was being talked about was peoples views on lynching lurkers and it got us nowhere, this actually got us off that stale topic and got people talking, more than anyone had done so far.

LoneMeow: Sounds reasonable to me. He brought up the policy thing but someone has to start discussion somehow. So you liked his rap and pointless posts about being a zergling? Ok sounds reasonable....... Oh wait not really, i want you to filter dive like i have done and specifically point out what it is you like and why It is irrelevant for now why i picked these 2 people Slam if you are still here what are your thoughts on deus and JAT? Another scummy move is to constantly keep asking people what they think about the others and not answering or very briefly answering questions directed at yourself. This way again it looks like you are contributing when in reality it is the others doing most of the talking. Also I happen to like LosK's pointless talk as it is part of the reason I have a slight town read on him. He seems very comfortable to talk about nothing in particular which sets most scum on edge and can sometimes make him a target for others to try and attack because of it. Which you later do. You are taking all of my posts out of context, I would have asked these questions within my bigger post and then it would have seemed more reasonable, possibly to you, but maybe those people would ignore it. I wanted to see who was around before I asked the questions in the first place. I asked for 2 different people to give me their reads because I had a plan set around it to retrieve more information, so I asked people to give me reads on a person I thought was scum and a person I thought was town to see their responses. As for IVLosK I cannot comprehend what gives you a town read on actions like that. He contributes nothing, when pressured adds nothing in his defence and was going to be lynched off with nothing valuable to save his life. What speaks town for you there? A townie should want to do everything he can to stay alive but no, nothing like that happened. As far as the Xzavier vote goes, it is NEVER a good idea to no-lynch on the first day. EVER. Like how does that even make sense for you to say? It's practically a free night for scum to do what they want, at least with A lynch we have a 2/9 chance to hit a scum, especially with a no poster who may vote last second. I would have switched my vote to iVLosK quite happily if I was around at the time, but read into it what you will I'd rather celebrate my girlfriends birthday than tell her I have to pop out to switch my vote on mafia. As far as my reads go, I have a lot of information from the last day that will be helpful. I will post these in a bit after I've had some time to relax. and a few others. Here is the thing. Holy's defense is strong, and it seems like a town defense. He did bring up good points. Holy was the one to get real discussion going day 1. Holy was the first one to show real aggression. Holy built a decent case against iV based othe information he had. But is that proof? I wouldn't say so. Holy didn't vote iV despite attacking him. Holy went to great lenths to defend himself, and Holy has not really contributed that much post day 1. As you can see there is 2 sides to the coin. Back to Omni. What upsets me about Omni is he does have some good points. Furthermore, he has been one of the most active members considering he only joined us a short while ago. But a feel like like he is building cases for all the wrong reasons, and I can't shake a scum vibe from him, but he seems genuine. All things considered, It is possible that both are town, and simply misguided in their efforts. iVSo what about iV? Well iV is someone who I will watch closely. I keep going back to his antagonistic behavior. That and he doesnt seem to give a shit what is said about him. I admit that is a weak reason to call him town, but it's something to go on. It could be a damn good poker face, so with that in mind I will keep my eye on him.

I'm just not a fan of this rather pointless policy discussions. People can talk alot about these things without adding any useful content. I won't read to much into early contentless posts though. Bad experience last game. Yeah scum could talk policy all day. Lets put all this lying, lurking, and what-have-you talk aside for now. I am going to vote reps or xzavier if they don't start posting. I want to push for a lynch day 1, and as of right now they are the best candidates. If reps/xzavier are tied for first then a close second would be, well.... everyone else. Although, I can't help be suspicious of holy. Last game he was pretty try-hard and this game he seems pretty detached. I won't press it for now though because he said he was busy. Anyway, I think our goal should be pressuring xzavier and reps to get them to participate. Lurkers won't be tolerated! His scumhunting pretty much only revolved around lynching lurkers.

Why are we tolerating lurkers?

I think this is the post JAT is referencing above. I noticed it too. I like you drawing attention to this, oh it's scummy to avoid lurkers but then say you want to do the anti lurker thing, seriously? I mean what the hell i don't know if you two are trying to set me up but until the lurkers actually do something talking about them is 100% anti town by way of wasting time. Of course we will lynch lurkers if nobody is under any real suspicion do not be stupid. I'm not sure I ever said it was scummy to avoid lurkers. So you've lost me. JAT is saying it's scummy and you said "i noticed it too"? "I noticed it" =/= "this is scummy". It's sorta more like what you're doing. Putting together a case on me without actually voting me. Read D1 of my first game on this site. I don't like that shit and happily lynch people who do it. This is a good example. Attacks holy and contributes nothing to town.

I agree with you completely when you say that nobody should vote for a guy with literally 0 posts. Town should NEVER lynch the "easiest" target which it seems like they did... that's complete scum mentality. Town lynch the scummiest players not the easiest ones -.- ... I'm also really upset that three people didn't even vote which makes it even harder to sort it out. so far I think I'm pretty happy with my reads right now though I think Slam really sticks out to me as scummy for jumping around on his votes so much, even to the point of voting for Xzavier on two seperate occasions, however he has been one of the most consistant contributors in the game albeit very spammy. I'm getting a newbie town feeling from him and with the amount he's posting if he is scum it wont take long for him to slip. For that reason I'm ok with him currently. I've never played with Deus but people say he's an aggressive townie. I'm not seeing any of that from this game. He's been asking really bad fluff questions which would be easy for scum to imitate to pretend to be contributing, his vote on Xzavier and his reason behind it were terrible or rather his lack of a reason. Then after the lynch on Xzavier he goes after Holy for something he was fine before and even said he thought Holy was town for. I'd say out of all the players he's my top scum read right now. And then Holy votes for Xzavier as a "place holder" never to take his vote off him. Very scummy behavior considering he goes for the easy lynch, and a way to avoid needing to actually come up with a reason to vote for somebody. As far as town reads go I had a newbie town read on Reps and so in turn I believe Koshi is town. JAT is my strongest town read in the game at the moment slight town read on iVLosK! and the rest are all neutral as I still have to go through the filters again. I'd really like to know why Slam jumped his vote around so much asap and why the hell all three of you (Holy, Deus, Slam) thought it was a good idea to lynch Xzavier. I like how you ignore everything I've said the entirety of the game just to focus on the person I put my vote on. It was my girlfriends birthday today (went out yesterday for it/party today) so I left my vote on the safest person so far. If he posted once and voted he'd be still in the game and I would NOT be alright with that, I would 100% not be alright with wasting 2 days just so we could fucking waste another day talking about him and wasting the day on him. That's a pretty massive issue.... the objective isn't to find the safest person to vote for and then do it as town..... Your reason of not wanting to get rid of somebody who might contribute doesn't work in this case. Xzavier had literally not made a single post, was very likely to be modkilled and you had stronger feelings against another player but you kept your vote on him because it was safer? Am I reading that right? Safer for what? Town on D1 doesn't need to worry about what the safe vote is. if you wanted to be safe why didn't you just ##Vote:No-Lynch instead of putting it on somebody who wouldn't defend himself. I'm fairly certain I just got that last part wrong, would a mod be kind enough to tell me/us what the correct format is to vote for a no-lynch? Thanks! I am confused why Xzavier WAS voted off though when the 2 votes were placed after the deadline........
We didn't even have enough votes against him. It wasn't a vote off. He was modkilled. They just said he got lynched in the end of day post. I really would like to hear his reasoning for all of this. Also he should be way more active Day2 if he is town because right now I am really worried about him. First thing of note: He quotes a shit ton but doesnt give that much explanation. Weak case. Second thing of note: He argues that I am scummy because of my inconsistency. Let me just make something clear. Why is that scummy? Shouldn't town BE inconsistent. Reads are constantly changing, new information constantly surfacing, the game is fucking changing. Hell yes I am going to be inconsistent at time, especially at the beginning of the game. Weak weak weak argument. Remeber when I said scum will use the xzavier lynch as an opportunity to push and agenda? Well this is it folks. Targets me because I have come under recent suspicions, and makes a really shitty argument. His first real stance comes after the xzavier lynch on an easy target. JAT mimics other people. He bandwagons. This kid is scum. I can feel it. Main target for pressure these day 2. LoneAlthough I cannot say this with complete confidence, I believe Lone to be town. He asked some good questions, and seems genuinely invested in promoting discussion. Furthermore, he is playing moderately aggressive, is pointing fingers (like his case against JAT), and he is bold in his votes. I would like to hear in-depth analysis from Lone. I would like to see real town effort. Conclusion: JAT: Scum. This guys filter is BS. Not contributing. Weak stance. Bandwagon. Using Xzavier lynch to push agenda. Low key. Lone: Slightly town because of noticeable contributions and efforts to further discussion. V. Slam Slam is a weird one. He is goofy and hard to follow. I have a very tough time reading him. I don't think slam is scum but I will look into him in the days to come. He seems to be trying to improve his play, as Holy mentioned, and I think that is pro town. He is asking good questions, has actually taken stronger stances this game than I have seen in the past, and seemed genuinely confused about the iV situation. VI. Final thoughts I could see a possible scum team being JAT Omni. I plan on looking into Omni more in the days to come. I would like him to answer my questions. Because I am much more confident in JAT being scum I will vote him instead of Omni for now. We will see how things play out. -Sincerly A devoted townie you loons! ##Vote Justanothertownie

Omni I would like you to make a summarized post on why you think Deus is scum. Try to stick to why scum Deus would do something instead of just pointing out contradictions please. sure thin, although I'll say now most of his contradictions do point to very scummy behavior. He starts off by saying town should be allowed to lie and we should lynch lurkers, this also means it's ok for scum to lie as he says town will never catch lying scum. Town's mindset is to catch scum lying because they NEED to lie to stay alive, not to ignore it and let anybody say what ever they want. The policy lynch for Lynch All Liars exists for that very reason. In a newbie game you don't need to fake claim your role, in fact by town lying you just add more confusion to the rest of town. Although this was just his policy talk I felt it was a very important start to his game. He goes on to say he wants to put all the policy talk away, and follows it up by saying he's voting for a lurker because they are lurking and haven't posted. I know he's played a few games before, he knows you don't claim to cast a vote for pressure. EVERY vote should have the intention to lynch behind it. As town you want to get lurkers to contribute but you don't say "hey, this is only a pressure vote but you better start contributing or maybe it'll become a real vote!" That is not a town oriented move. It's scum focusing on a "easy" target and being very non-committal about it on top of that. If we still had hardcore lurkers I'd bet he'd still be voting for them doing the exact same thing. he goes on to talk to Holy and asks this question, "Yes he hasn't contributed, but do you want to make a case against him because he hasn't contributed or because he is a hypocrite?". This isn't something town says... "yeah he hasn't contributed and he's going back on what he's saying BUT that's no reason to make a case on him!" actually... that's called scum hunting and it's exactly what town should be doing. Unfortunately this comment stops Holy and Deus effectively stops any potential attempt at town talking about it at all. Which he has done several times now. Again this is not how a townie behaves. You don't try to stop people from talking about the only leads they have to go on, you contribute and try to find something else that other people have missed. Scum try to stifle conversation and tell people that it's scummy to continue trying to scum hunt. He has constantly been trying to work out association cases based on nothing, which although many townies unfortunately were doing, scum loves this and tries to hop in with their own, because it's pointless but it makes them seem like they are contributing. Once people see an association case it becomes very difficult for them to think about it in another way which effectively shuts down their helpfulness. Deus was completely on board with doing just that. his vote has been covered, but again it's scummy and there is no town benefit for him voting for a modkill. It only adds confusion. He goes on to claim that the voting catastrophe is irrelevant to scum hunting which it certainly is not. Town tries to gather information from clusterfucks like that but he claims it's scummy to talk about it and we should just ignore it and pretend it didn't happen. Makes sense considering he made the jump to Xzavier from LosK first. Claims myself Holy and ivLosK have some sort of connection..... not really sure how. "There is so much that can be said about these individuals. 1 scum, 2 scum, or no scum? Are they connected? Why the attacks on each other?" Mmmmmmmm WIFOM bombing town is so helpful. After everything he says about thinking I'm scummy, he then claims I'm genuine and have been actively contributing and posting and then calls Slam town. - then says JAT and myself are the scum team. Can not even make up his mind in the same post. literally has 0 direction and claims I'm trying to mislead town. Let's see what he's said... "II. Omni, iV, and Holy There is so much that can be said about these individuals. 1 scum, 2 scum, or no scum? Are they connected?" and "VI. Final thoughts I could see a possible scum team being JAT Omni." one (two) large post which comes down to an association case based on nothing. Baffle them with bullshit guys! they won't see through the smoke. Townies don't do this crap. Scum try to lie and confuse us, they try to stop scum hunting, stop conversation, and try to convince town that everybody else is scum. so yes, I believe Deus is scum and actively trying to mislead town by throwing everything at the wall and seeing what sticks, he himself certainly has not stuck to one story even in the same post. The only thing he's stayed consistent on is that the Xzavier lynch should stop being looked at. - scummy. I don't say town should be allowed to lie. I say it is unlikely that you will catch scum lying, so I would rather focus on lurkers over liars. I don't really understand what you are saying in the next paragraph. I was trying to pressure lurkers. At that time no one had really contributed much, except for holy, so that wasn't a scummy tell in my mind. Holy didn't clearly communicate his main reason for being suspicious of iV. Not basing any cases of mine on connections. The most I said was I could foresee a connection between JAT and Omni. I am probably off base with that one. I have already addressed in detail why I think scum hunting based on the Xzavier lynch is detrimental to town. Like I said Scum will try to capitalize on that opportunity. You, holy, and iV have a connection as far as the thread goes. Arguing among each other. Again you go back to me talking about connections, that is weak. I admit, It was preemptive for me to say that you guys were connected, but that was not at all the focus of that post. It was a very small tidbit of information. Furthermore, both of you were building cases based on the Xzavier lynch. JAT to a lesser extent, but he did bring up the voting prior to the lynch in his case. I did stick to one story. Your argument is weak. You are trying to find evidence when there is none. Here is the story. I think you are pushing an agenda, capitalizing on the Xzavier lynch. I think you mimicked Koshi to a certain extent, and your arguments are super weak. I think you are scummy. But at the time of that post, my biggest read was JAT. I outlined all the reasons I thought JAT was scummy. Furthermore I said Holy has attributes that seem scummy and that seem townie, and I am leaning town. I said you "seemed" genuine, and have other townie traits, but I am leaning scum on you.
NOW HE THINKS ME OMNI AND IV ARE CONNECTED?????????? There is literally no evidence at all other than me defending myself from omni's posts and me targeting ivlosk day 1 because he WAS scummy to me.

Who is to say that you could be town and he knew it so wanted to get on your side?

Whether you take from it that you are also scum is up to you, I do not give a shit.

Past tense because now that I think too many people are town everyone got kicked to null again. So I will shower, prepare for work, read, and try to give reads.

(<3 WhiteRa) Speaking of which, Yes Holyflare- I will work on my read on Deus in a minute. + Show Spoiler +On August 16 2013 14:17 Alakaslam wrote:Show nested quote +On August 16 2013 14:08 LoneMeow wrote:On August 16 2013 14:02 Alakaslam wrote:On August 16 2013 13:05 DeusXmachina wrote:On August 16 2013 12:56 Alakaslam wrote:On August 16 2013 05:14 DeusXmachina wrote:On August 16 2013 04:58 LoneMeow wrote:On August 16 2013 04:54 DeusXmachina wrote:On August 16 2013 04:51 LoneMeow wrote:On August 16 2013 04:46 DeusXmachina wrote: Liars?

I mean iVLosk is wrong (this is no connection case although it makes iVlosk look bad in the long run) but almost all your points are already stated in my first case on Deus. I know you made a second post about this so I won't draw conclusions before I read the whole thing but this stuck out to me.
Like I told you before, this was all in my original big post, didn't want to post it earlier because I wanted to see other peoples reactions to the first bit. I added bits that were up to date only today. I've already written about ivlosk too

Ok, after seeing all this defending from deus I actually want to switch to slam who gave up straight away after I made a case on him, anyone else agree? I also do not think JAT is a valuable lynch target right now either.

Slam was a spur of the moment last second switch not an inevitable kill. Umasi last game HAD to bus his team because sc_am was useless and gotard and him were linked, he made no fight against gotard until my night post and then he came out all guns blazing which was very out of character, but you were too concerned with 1 aspect of his vote and that threw you off him completely... In this game jat was under no threat of link with slam, no danger of getting lynched probably in this entire game, it just doesn't make sense

Time Cycle: This game will follow a 24 hour night/48-hour day cycle. The deadline will be at 19:00 BST (+01:00) The day lasts for 48 hours. Who-ever has the majority of votes at the end of the day is lynched. If at the end of 48 hours, there is no majority, it is a no-lynch. Night lasts for 24 hours, and you can post at night.

This aint a case with quotes because I can't be bothered, you can make your own because it's obvious, game solved. Sereals though, look at who voted who. Why would slam switch so much.
Mainly, what I think is actually the case is - So who was everyone voting at the start of the game or applying pressure to that slam did not? SQUIBBLES!!! WHO DID SLAM NOT VOTE?? SQUIBBLES!!!! Instead he placeholdered xzavier instead for no reason. He also was asked for reads on omni, never gave them. Omni kept lightly mentioning scam for his voting during the day but never put a case on him, only me briefly and then deus tunneling the rest of the game (was suspicious as fuck though to be fair, soz deus).
If you click slams filter and click the all button and than ctrl + f and search omni, it comes up what? 3 times? no reads, no mentioning, no pressure, blind acceptance. If you click omnis filter slams name only comes up in tandom with deus and never much else. He also didn't vote slam in the lynch at the end and stayed on deus, WHY BOTHER WHEN BOTH WERE EQUALLY SCUMMY TO YOU?
GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG, town wins.
btw trying to sheep deus, pro move, you slipped up though

His two posts also indicate that and while I was reading the game before being subbed in for him my read on him was town. Why are you deflecting the subject? Squibbles didn't get voted on, if he had this wouldn't be as bad as it is. At least you could argue Squibbles had said he would contribute but never did. I also thought he was town from what he has posted (if you actually read anything I posted, it seems you haven't). I am also not deflecting, the point you raised was that you shouldn't vote for a 0 poster, squibbles was a 2 poster with a no vote that also got modkilled, the REST of the town was on him right until the final minutes where they bandwagoned iVLosK! and then subsequently Xzavier. There was some suspicious shit there though and I'll leave it till the day before I discuss it. Not making the same mistake as my last game. you are mistaking me asking you questions for me making a case against you.

I actually do somewhat know his style, we were both in a game with him earlier, and that's why I said I need to be careful on how I read him, since he's a likely misread for me. Since it seems to be just you and me here, let's talk about something. Your thoughts on Squibbles' first post? Can you be a little more specific?

Okay, I see your track record on figuring out first posts isn't exactly stellar :D I want to see people talk about each other, because that makes the game much easier to figure out. I consider his first post pretty much null from a completely new player. On that matter, my reads so far: slightly town on DeusXmachina and Alakaslam, null on the rest. however he hasn't had to talk about other people so I cannot give a good read on him whatsoever yet.

Okay, sounds good. Biggest scum reads so far, Xzavier and reps. Lol at reps if he becomes a day 1 lynch again. Why am I suspicious? Well, they are lurking, and as I previously mentioned, lurking will not be tolerated. Pretty much neutral on everyone. Although, I am leaning slightly town on JAT. Careful of posting pseudo lurker lists... Look. That is the easies thing for scum to do to try and look town, 1, and 2, if we have vigs, they can shoot into lurkers and we lynch other lurkers till there are none. So it is established that you can't lurk and get by this game. Stating their scumminess other than to explain a vote on them is now irrelevant, lets stick to discussion about actives. Then, before the deadline (close as you can get) vote for a lurker or someone you find scummy- who may have more of a chance turning out to be scum than someone who wanted blue or irl'ed or whatever causes people to do this stuff. I like this post but by this nature he should also assume that ivlosk is now scummy (after reading my post/his filter), he has a habit of being swayed easily by people who are expressing pro town interests which you all need to watch out for too. Obviously the game is early and you can't read too much into what he is saying so press him lots <3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------JAT hasn't really added anything other than his dislike of fakeclaims, can't read into him at all so would like to hear more from him too, will push him on people when he is around. + Show Spoiler +On August 17 2013 01:30 justanothertownie wrote:Show nested quote +On August 16 2013 20:37 LoneMeow wrote:On August 16 2013 20:30 justanothertownie wrote: Because it was mentioned someone did it in one of the last newbie games and because there were 2 townies who fakeclaimed cop in the first game I played.

I much prefer reps or sqibbles for the lynch and will vote squibbles because multiple players have stated that reps is always like this. ##Vote: Squibbles You do NOT want to accidently vote off a town member if they have contributed, even 1 or 2 posts, compared to somebody who has done none for now. --------------------------------------------------------------------- I honestly do not understand how people can think you are acting town when you flip flop all over the place on almost every post you make: + Show Spoiler +On August 17 2013 01:27 iVLosK! wrote: Anyway, if Xzavier and reps haven't done anything meaningful by the time the Chiefs game ends tonight, I will lower the boom on whichever I deem most worthy. Nothing has been noted in your posts since then that implies you'd even think about modkills or squibbles voting, you just seem to be bandwagoning with no valid reason for the easy lynch. Clearly you've had a problem with LosK all game, yet you continue to keep your vote on Xzavier, I can only assume it is to be "safe". Lastly please don't soft claim town with a "I'm not going to post my thoughts at night, cause I might get NK'd!" after playing like shit and tunneling LosK for most of the day for play that I and a few others consider to be town aligned. It's bullshit. My town reads are still JAT and LosK, I think if Koshi continues to play exactly as he has been I feel pretty comfortable calling him town as well.

However the squibbles voting is intriguing. It is a policy lynch based on what may be IRL circumstances. Is there actually something wrong with his posting, other than the lack of it?
If not, may want to reconsider... ... As according to his own deadlines, he will likely be modkilled. It is 9:15 on the west coast.
Any better reasons though? As the same goes for Xzavier... So if squib is preferable guess what When I dropped my vote on Squibbles I was fully expecting him to speak up before the deadline as he had said he's reading the thread during EU daytime.

Also, now that you're here, can I have a few reads from you? To me this looks like a town motivated mind set. He's actively watching what people are doing and how they are reacting to things and trying to see the town/scum reasoning behind each action. Actually by quoting these I realize Slam also voted on Xzavier as a place holder at first. wtf. Sheep placeholder at that, scummy as hell. Add that to how much his vote jumped around and he makes me pretty nervous I think Deus looks pretty scummy as well and also mentioned he wanted a "safe" place to put his vote. After looking through his filter carefully though I no longer think he's the scummiest out of all three.
Carefully through deus' filter, not scummy, few posts later.

His filter is worse than Slam's, He made the same terrible vote, and he's not playing like his standard town play as said by other people.
Unless anything massive happens in the next 48 hours the only other person I'd consider voting for right now would be Slam. I'll be going through his filter and trying to make a case on him as well but the case made by JAT is very compelling.

Ill answer the questions directed at me 1 by 1. JAT's is first + Show Spoiler +On August 19 2013 19:46 justanothertownie wrote: So Deus, you don't like it if I quote you - ok. I don't like to quote such an enormous post anyways. So here is my answer to you but first: I thought about the whole thing since yesterday and I will admit that the lynch conclusions alone are not enough to forge a solid read on someone. I got caught up in this because your voting was really stupid even if it wasn't scum motivated. If you read what I said you know that I already mentioned it doesn't make so much sense for scum to voteswitch like that if iVLosk is town. And iVlosk is right that this is kind of an association case and that they are bad.
Still I don't really like how you responded to my case on you and I will tell you why. Yeah, I quoted a shitton if you want so say it like that but I always explained what's scummy about it if it doesn't speak for itself like your voting pattern. You don't even adress one point of my case directly instead you are saying I am scum for pushing you? Wow, now I am impressed. Thats's the scummy way to "defend" against a case.
You are absolutely right - a townie should change his reads if there is new information but did you really do that? What happened between your vote on iVlosk and your vote on Xzavier that changed your mind and if there is nothing why did you vote for iVLosk in the first place? If you can explain your thought process through yesterday to me instead of just claiming there is no way scum would do that I would consider changing my read on you. Also please explain to me why you didn't know it was plurality lynch when it was mentioned several times before the lynch (did you read the thread at all?). So far I see your case on me is that I am agreeing with people on things + OMGUS. Yeah, great case.
Other than that: I am suspicious of Omni myself. He is obviously right about me but if I understand him correctly he obsed before he replaced so it is easy to know who looks townie to people and who doesn't and scum likes to give townreads. It is easy for them to give strong reads because they know who is town and who isn't. But what really gets me thinking about him is his reasoning. He doesn't even really consider iVLosk to be scum and still insists on you or slam being scum and I don't follow that. There still is only one alive player who I really have a considerable townread on and it's not him.
I would really like you to keep being active Day2 and to keep posting reads. If this means you have to push me - do it. The same goes for iVLosk who didn't contribute anything for a long time now. I don't want to call him scum for not defending himself before the lynch anymore because it was very shortly before the deadline that he got voted but still several people were suspicious of him and there was always the possibility of him getting lynched earlier. I don't know what to think of him.

I'm almost completely caught up Yeah it took me 5 minutes as well. Hahahaha yeah, unfortunately what I'm really going over right now is the massive clusterfuck at the end of D1. I agree with you completely when you say that nobody should vote for a guy with literally 0 posts. Town should NEVER lynch the "easiest" target which it seems like they did... that's complete scum mentality. Town lynch the scummiest players not the easiest ones -.- ... I'm also really upset that three people didn't even vote which makes it even harder to sort it out. so far I think I'm pretty happy with my reads right now though I think Slam really sticks out to me as scummy for jumping around on his votes so much, even to the point of voting for Xzavier on two seperate occasions, however he has been one of the most consistant contributors in the game albeit very spammy. I'm getting a newbie town feeling from him and with the amount he's posting if he is scum it wont take long for him to slip. For that reason I'm ok with him currently. I've never played with Deus but people say he's an aggressive townie. I'm not seeing any of that from this game. He's been asking really bad fluff questions which would be easy for scum to imitate to pretend to be contributing, his vote on Xzavier and his reason behind it were terrible or rather his lack of a reason. Then after the lynch on Xzavier he goes after Holy for something he was fine before and even said he thought Holy was town for. I'd say out of all the players he's my top scum read right now. And then Holy votes for Xzavier as a "place holder" never to take his vote off him. Very scummy behavior considering he goes for the easy lynch, and a way to avoid needing to actually come up with a reason to vote for somebody. As far as town reads go I had a newbie town read on Reps and so in turn I believe Koshi is town. JAT is my strongest town read in the game at the moment slight town read on iVLosK! and the rest are all neutral as I still have to go through the filters again. I'd really like to know why Slam jumped his vote around so much asap and why the hell all three of you (Holy, Deus, Slam) thought it was a good idea to lynch Xzavier. I like how you ignore everything I've said the entirety of the game just to focus on the person I put my vote on. It was my girlfriends birthday today (went out yesterday for it/party today) so I left my vote on the safest person so far. If he posted once and voted he'd be still in the game and I would NOT be alright with that, I would 100% not be alright with wasting 2 days just so we could fucking waste another day talking about him and wasting the day on him. That's a pretty massive issue.... the objective isn't to find the safest person to vote for and then do it as town..... Your reason of not wanting to get rid of somebody who might contribute doesn't work in this case. Xzavier had literally not made a single post, was very likely to be modkilled and you had stronger feelings against another player but you kept your vote on him because it was safer? Am I reading that right? Safer for what? Town on D1 doesn't need to worry about what the safe vote is. if you wanted to be safe why didn't you just ##Vote:No-Lynch instead of putting it on somebody who wouldn't defend himself. I'm fairly certain I just got that last part wrong, would a mod be kind enough to tell me/us what the correct format is to vote for a no-lynch? Thanks! I am confused why Xzavier WAS voted off though when the 2 votes were placed after the deadline........
We didn't even have enough votes against him. It wasn't a vote off. He was modkilled. They just said he got lynched in the end of day post. I really would like to hear his reasoning for all of this. Also he should be way more active Day2 if he is town because right now I am really worried about him. For starters, scum reads based on the xzavier lynch are extremelly unreliable, and I will try to explain that by detailing my thought process. Ill say this again, the xzavier lynch is a MASSIVE opportunity for scum to capitalize on. It's a gateway to mislynching a townie. There was some talk about my inconsistency. I wouldn't call the moments before the Xzavier lynch inconsistent. At least in my case, the better word is impulsive. So my thought process: The most impulsive thing I did that day was vote iV. Shortly after, I posted what I was thinking. + Show Spoiler +On August 18 2013 02:56 DeusXmachina wrote: Sorry guys. I couldn't be around this morning. Read the thread.

I got in right before the lynch. I pan through the posts. Wow people seemed convinced iV is the best lynch candidate. Vote iV. Wait a second, I don't really agree with that. He is way to antagonistic, and aggressive to be scum. I don't think this is right. Well how many votes against him, we need 5 right? (Yes I genuinly thought it was a majority lynch. No I didn't catch where it said plurality. Yes when slam responded right after saying plurality I discarded it because I thought wtf does that mean). Nope this isn't right he is not scum. Unvote, vote Xzavier. Why vote Xzavier? Yes I actually thought it was a majority (Guys do you really think scum would say something so stupid?). I thought, you know what, I am sticking to my guns this game. I don't want to tolerate lurking. Why such a strong stance against lurking? Well I had a major lurker in my last game who turned out to be scum. Another lurker, although not as bad, who turned out to be scum. Okay, so in retrospect Xzavier was beyond a lurker. He was a no poster. But I thought to myself, I don't think Squibbs is scum just yet, I don't think reps is scum just yet. So he is the only one I can vote for. I kick myself for not voting no-lynch. But don't you see! That inconsistency, that impulsiveness is not scummy. Who is more likely to be impulsive? A scum who is constantly thinking about the ramifications of his actions, or a townie who is interested in scum hunting, not constantly making sure he does not look suspicious. Look how much shit that Xzavier lynch got slam and I? That would be, like I said earlier, a massive misstep by scum. That's why talk of scum reads based on the Xzavier lynch are so silly. That's why I think Omni is trying to capitalize on the lynch. Ill respond to JAT's case point by point. The first little bit is based on my meta. I think that is a weak argument. He is talking about how I am not being as aggressive. Well different game different situation. Second point. Back off the policy talk was not defensive at all. I was heading your advice/agreeing with you. My scum hunting was based off of only lurkers? I didn't have anything else to scum hunt at the time. I didn't want to talk about inconsistencies in IV's play and over-analyze his first post, so I didn't chime in with Holy. After that is the best example of my inconsistency. My read on iV was changing, that's all that needs to be said. The rest I explained above. Overall it's still a weak case. My case on you was not just based on you agreeing with things. It doesn't sound like an impossible scenario to me. The only thing that really frustrates me about him is his tunneling against me. I already stated why his case is bullshit and I won't do this again here. I don't understand why he attacks me and not Omni (I know he leans scum on him but he pushes me instead). I would absolutely attack Omni right now if I was him. He even stated several times that Omni is the one who is pushing an agenda with the Day1 lynch but instead he fucking votes me for laughable reasons. I don't get it. But I also don't see why scum Deus would do this - it's just bad/stupid play. Also it weirds me out how everyone apart from iVLosk voted him without a problem. Either they are a very obvious scumteam (I won't call it impossible) or something doesn't add up here. Any thoughts? I will see if I can find a better target for my vote for now. Check out lone for me ya? Now, brb. You are talking about omni, are suspicious of his agenda and get a chance to press him further? Slam asks you to tunnel lone instead, like what more shit do you need?

Also, who was on the lone vote? Slam and Ivlosk, what other obvious alternative is there to framing him than voting off his lynch target?

He wasn't super obvious town, didn't push slam or whatever, wasn't a real threat to anyone by way of his posts. If anything you or JAT would be better examples to kill but JAT voted slam and you stuck to Deus even though your second read is slam? what reasoning is that?? If slam and ivlosk were actually scum together they could have switched votes to deus at any time to save slam and I'm sure they'd be around for the vote for that to happen and your vote would have killed the townie.

We also have 1 blue, if it was a jailkeeper or cop they 100% would have blocked deus or checked him last night. Since we haven't heard from them that means deus is safe for now. Most likely we have a doctor and he has been missing who to save each night though. I think I know who the doctor is but that is irrelevant for now. Seeing as I am town and the person I think is blue is blue then that only leaves you on my suspicious list.

There is no way both scum would vote lone knowing that either slam or deus would get lynched that day.

Speculation is 100% what we need to do. It determines whether we can mislynch today or not.

Congratulations, you are FXOLeenock, the Town Jailkeeper! Once per night, you can play a long macro game with another player, forcing them to stay at the GSL studio all night. While this roleblocks them, it also protects them from 1 KP. You win with the eSF players!

United Kingdom30774 Posts
there are 4 town, 1 scum left.
I know I'm town, and I'm pretty sure you are town. If there is a cop he would have checked someone other than us 2 because we were on the slam lynch aka deus, omni or ivlosk. If he reveals that he got a town check on one of them then that's 4 confirmed people (or 3 if you are blue jat) and then we easy lynch off the 2 or 1 remaining. Since we can afford a mislynch.
Jailkeeper would be much the same reasoning as cop for revealing.
Doctor on the other hand, there's not much point theorising about that, he saves someone or he doesn't.

Why do you act like you knew Slam would flip scum while only acting on hindsight? It's stupid. Only Scum would know Slam was going to flip Scum, I don't know if you figured that out yet though. You were literally on the Deus bus pushing hard till Slam's 2nd extremely scummy vote and then bailed asap. Scum would know Slam would eventually get caught and lynched for how he was playing and would be ready to bus him to get town cred. You make it sound like I was trying to keep Slam alive without bussing him on top of all this. Scum wouldn't rely on having both players make it to the end game. You're whole point that Slam doesn't mention me very much applies to a lot of people, that's how he was playing, as I said you literally can't find Lone anywhere in his filter, his conversations with LosK are completely pointless, and he straight up avoids answering my questions directed at him during D2.

You raise some interesting points about HolyFlare. I will read him again (he was null to me before your case). please by all means pick my case apart as well, I wasn't able to say this because I was so late in joining this game but I believe not only does Koshi's death prove he was on the right track, but that in order to correctly pick the scum off the Xzavier lynch we need to go through each others cases and almost play devils advocate on how certain points might be considered town rather than scum. Admittedly at least in my case I find it very difficult to find town motivation behind a players actions after I think they are scum. I'll have to take another look at LosK then as well. He's messing around a lot which makes it very difficult for me to read him. I just don't think scum would be so openly ballsy as he is being lol

Making an alternate argument to your deus and ivlosk tunneling is also a form of playing devils advocate so no, maybe you should fucking google before insinuating that I don't know how to speak my own language. Just because I quote a post where you say do that for peoples TOWN MOTIVES does not mean I can't do it for peoples scum motives. It is the opposite to what you said to do.

You also shouldn't have a problem with me tunneling you if you are town, I wouldn't find anything to question you about and you would be clean from everyones suspicions. So why the hate? Is it because you ARE actually scum?

The thing is you aren't defending yourself, I didn't say slam DIDN'T reference you, I'm saying he actively deflected from you. Of course if you were scum you would be trying to discredit everything I say anyway so what is the point of even discussing anything with you in the first place?

In response to that crapy deflection you are trying to do. Deus actively defended himself for over an hour+, Slam cracked after the first case I made for him, it was an obvious switch to make.

Slam had no reason to last minute jump onto Xzavier if he wasn't following some sort of weird plan imo. Exactly. But the only real plan I can see there is saving iV.
Slam was agreeing with iv all day 1 and calling him town, if he switched off of iv and eventually revealed scum it would be obvious implications for iv. Hence all are accusations have been wasted calling iv scum with slam when really we should be looking elsewhere.

I wasn't even sure on slam at that point but he was on the xzavier lynch and so was deus so I only made cases on those two. His defence was awful and like I said he fell apart. I made a case out of nothing and if you say it isn't even a good case then that's because his posts weren't implicating enough for you either. However, his stance afterwards completely changed my mind and after seeing deus' defences, like I said, it's an easy switch.

Saying that also makes Deus scum because he didn't vote for Squibbles but instead went straight to LosK, and then to Xzavier. Good logic.
I told you deus tunnels. He tunneled lurkers, of course his vote would be on a lurker if he wasn't convinced that iv was scum.

His tunnel on JAT all game should be evidence enough for that. If you look at last game he was also tunneling all game.

He is exactly the same in this game as he was last game, the only difference is he has had pressure on him the entire time. He reads a lot of the guides and knows that the best thing to do when being attacked is to point out other peoples scum mistakes and why you should not be voted over anyone else. His only downside is tunneling. I am not so sure he would tunnel JAT for THIS long if he was scum, it just doesn't make any sense at all. In fact why am I even debating things with you. YOU ARE THE SCUM.

I was prepared to switch but instead wrote what I did at the end of D2.
More on Deus, as I've said before I believe you trying to make Slam seem town while about to be lynched for the last hour, and him trying to keep you from being lynched by jumping off your wagon and trying to find somebody else to vote for is still very much a possibility. The only reason JAT has given me for that not being possible anymore is that it doesn't sound very believable that two scum were on the Xzavier lynch. You (Deus) didn't think even 1 scum was on the lynch and criticized me heavily for pushing it so hard when now obviously there was at least 1 scum on it.
The other possibility as JAT mentioned is that Slam jumped onto Xzavier in order to save LosK who still would have been lynched even with you joining Xzavier (as it would have been tied 2-2 with LosK coming down from 3 votes) so if LosK is scum, Slam would have had to move to save him.
Also sorry JAT I was going in circles with Holy till he decided to call it quits, which he never really did. Also Deus's meta is still relevant @Holy because he's still one of my scum reads. How dumb do you have to be to think Deus is cleared as town just because Slam flipped scum (And that is all that has happened since the time you were ready to lynch Deus btw)
Deus vanished after Slam was lynched after trying to convince us he was town for an hour as well. Not even a "well done town! thank's for keeping me alive for another cycle!" nothing. He has been soft defending Slam for most of D2 and it's quite possible that the scum team just decided to both vote on Xzavier at the end cause honestly who the hell would see that coming.
I do think I got a bit too wrapped up on Deus though, as thinking about it logically it would seem that LosK would be the scum buddy by looking at the D1 lynch and through the conversations between Slam and LosK + LosK's behavior in general has not helped town very much at all. D2 however imo points towards both Deus and LosK equally. As I said earlier, I haven't played this game anywhere near perfectly but that =/= playing like scum. I've pushed my reads, contributed to town discussion, tried to get others to contribute and even while Holy was pushing me he's doing things I said town should do to try and hunt scum. I've been playing this entire game for the purpose of catching and lynching scum and I think my obsession over the D1 Lynch and my push to get people to focus on the people involved on it was well placed.
This is easy, he just scum slipped. Let's get this over with.

I agree with you completely when you say that nobody should vote for a guy with literally 0 posts. Town should NEVER lynch the "easiest" target which it seems like they did... that's complete scum mentality. Town lynch the scummiest players not the easiest ones -.- ... I'm also really upset that three people didn't even vote which makes it even harder to sort it out. so far I think I'm pretty happy with my reads right now though I think Slam really sticks out to me as scummy for jumping around on his votes so much, even to the point of voting for Xzavier on two seperate occasions, however he has been one of the most consistant contributors in the game albeit very spammy. I'm getting a newbie town feeling from him and with the amount he's posting if he is scum it wont take long for him to slip. For that reason I'm ok with him currently. I've never played with Deus but people say he's an aggressive townie. I'm not seeing any of that from this game. He's been asking really bad fluff questions which would be easy for scum to imitate to pretend to be contributing, his vote on Xzavier and his reason behind it were terrible or rather his lack of a reason. Then after the lynch on Xzavier he goes after Holy for something he was fine before and even said he thought Holy was town for. I'd say out of all the players he's my top scum read right now. And then Holy votes for Xzavier as a "place holder" never to take his vote off him. Very scummy behavior considering he goes for the easy lynch, and a way to avoid needing to actually come up with a reason to vote for somebody. As far as town reads go I had a newbie town read on Reps and so in turn I believe Koshi is town. JAT is my strongest town read in the game at the moment slight town read on iVLosK! and the rest are all neutral as I still have to go through the filters again. I'd really like to know why Slam jumped his vote around so much asap and why the hell all three of you (Holy, Deus, Slam) thought it was a good idea to lynch Xzavier. This is a post that I would point to as alignment indicative. It is his first in this game. Of the three candidates that he will focus on he focuses on Holy and Myself. At the time slam was not one of the best contributors, so this seems like a fake reason to "be ok with him currently". Another thing that really bugs me about this post, is when he says JAT is my strongest town read. I don't think JAT should have been anyone's strongest town read at this point in the game, unless you are scum and you know he is town. JAT and Holy would you interpret this post in the same way? Anything else to point out? Is this alignment indicative? Omni would you mind commenting on this? What were some of the contributions that caused you to overlook slam and focus on myself and holy?
