@Sciberbia:
... Rean and jamp literally have not posted more than once in like 2 days I think. Between the two I think what there is of Rean's filter is significantly scummier, and depending on what he does (or doesn't do) today he could very realistically be the best lynch. ...
I obviously don't disagree with you, but what are your reasons for thinking Rean is a better lynch than Jampidampi? I'm aware they may at least partially overlap with mine but I'd like to hear you express them in your own words.

@Aquanim Sure. Here's some more exposition on what makes Rean scummy to me.

But I'm curious as to his answer. I don't like Rean's start to the game. He looked to content to hover around the thread and not actually do anything. For example, what is the point of the bolded sentence above? He comes to no conclusion about Aquanim's alignment, but throws out some general remark about his play. I don't like it because it's dirt-throwy and I just don't see any reason to include that sentence as town. I see two motivations as scum: look like you are paying attention / doing something and throwing dirt at Aquanim.

(His unvote doesn't change that.) As for scum, I'm not sure yet. Not enough information. I don't much like Corazon's case on sciberbia but I can think of reasons why Corazon would make that argument as town, regardless of how good it is.

Do you think Corazon's argument that sciberbia is scum is persuasive? Why or why not? Persuasive...it's a good argument. Sciberbia was being more laidback, trying to avoid comitting to anything, so it definitely makes him look scummy. Overall the kind of argument that gets discussion started and gets us somewhere useful, I quite like it. Guess persuasive would be a decent way to describe it. He has to be practically talked into his first read. He calls me scummy only when specifically asked to comment. His play in this post and in general feels reactive and not proactive.
Repeatedly calling out lurkers on D1 is typical of scum in my experience. There really isn't anything to say about them. They're lurking. It's obvious. But if scum feel some heat they may try to shift the spotlight elsewhere.

This is demonstrated when he essentially copies my post asking thrawn if he was a mason (deliberately, his post was at least 2-3 minutes after mine) and then decides that he can take my words and twist them when I pressure him about it. This is what troubles me about sciberia right now. seems like a legitimate point to me rather than a scum-slip. But it could be a way of distancing himself from Scib if he flips red.

He agrees with Mocsta's conclusions but then accuses Mocsta of confirmation bias in coming to those conclusions. Seems awkward from a townie perspective.
As I said before, one thing I do find townie is his irritation at me calling him scum and his insistence that I explain myself.

Sciberbia...while your reasoning is anything but original, it's understandable so not gonna push that read on me any further. I don't like though that you're yet again trying to go for someone already mentioned (Onegu).
Why is that everyone here is so anxious about me mentioning lurkers though? It seems to me like with your attitudes you automatically assume anyone that mentions lurkers ever is scum, but that way people can get away with lurking hard and not contributing a god damn thing. I find it really fishy that both Aqua and Scib seem so paranoid of me for trying to call out lurkers >.> He's wishy washy and seems scared to take a firm stand on anything in this post. Is he calling me scum or not? I don't really know. He kinda is but kinda isn't. Is he calling Onegu scum or not? He kinda is but kinda isn't. Even Aquanim he is hedging his bets on. Why does he not like this Onegu wagon at all? Reasoning is flimsy.

Where in that post do I say he is claiming mason? I was making a comment on the possibility of there being a mason after thrawn's post.

The way I see it, sciberbia analysing the first page at least gives us something to talk about. Why don't you think what he's doing is productive?

Obviously this plan has backfired, but I figure if you're going to come after me that gives them an interesting choice to make so hopefully we'll still get something useful out of them.
For the same reason, I voted Rean above for the purposes of running a second wagon and introducing a choice. I'd cheerfully vote Corazon as well, his failure to actually vote for sciberbia despite his constant accusations is pretty damning. .

While a vote does put a little extra pressure on it I think saying it's scum-indicative not to vote is really overrating it's importance.

A few things about this post the only thing he finds scummy is coras atk on scib about him piggybacking him about the mason thing. This is far from damning, I didnt like it either but Im not going to give cora a scum read for this. It really looks like nitpicking to me.Second the case on rean is completely unreadable and he never gives a tldr later. While this isnt scummy its at least null .

Why is this post even remotely scummy, because he defends someone he thinks is scummy, but he wasnt he was saying what they were atacking him for wasnt legit.

Moc, I'm quite concerned that you have already used up >25% of your "self-allotted posts". If you're going to start spamming, it's going to be a problem.
Now to my goals/early game statements:
1. I'm not gonna make any meta crap posts. TBH I don't remember anyone's meta and it's ridiculously stupid logic. I'm not going to stand for it and I don't think you guys should either.
2. I'm voting for the scummiest person. My last game was Titanic and it came down to 3-4 days of "X is scum, Y/Z/Q is scum as well". That led the town way off of the path and allowed my scum team the easiest scum win in a very long time. I don't care if they're not on the two lynch trains that are going to form. It's not instant majority so as long as I feel like I'm voting for the scummiest person in my opinion, I'm going to be happy with my vote.
3. I'm going to do my best to not be just an onlooker. I'm gonna try and facilitate discussion and ask a lot of questions instead of just answering questions and throw my ideas out there and just create more chaos.
On that note, sciberia needs to stop analyzing the first page so hard and just discuss. We're not going to find scum on the first page. You guys just need to talk instead of being at each other's throats 30 minutes into the game.
Couldn't agree more. Also, don't shit up the thread with useless spam like the LXIII game please. I tried keeping up but the amount of shit posts just trolling/making useless jokes/comments is unbearable and makes it impossible to tell low-laying scum from trolling townies. If anyone goes around posting stupid oneliners without saying anything meaningful they have my vote >.> Reans first post into the thread and it just fakes activity. He doesnt say what he agrees with and there are multiple things to agree with, does he agree with all or only some he, never actually says what points he agrees with.

I do want to point out he only takes it after cora points out his spam. But unlike cora I thought it was scummy, because it was a easy way to avoid conversation. The was one more post from mocsta I didnt like will find it in moment it was post 4or 5 where he gives 3 scum reads with no reason and then says half the thread hasnt posted so his reads can change. Coras case on Sciberia is terribad and scummy. Anyway rean is really scumm though. Sorry Im at the mall but when I am home I will catchup on both of my games and be up late playing. Ill be checking in periodicly while Im at the mall though. if he's scum, this is not at all a "safe" post to bust into the thread with. i think it's on point that he calls mocsta's thread presence out. i really want to believe moc is town, but i keep seeing small red flags embedded in his posts. he's the first person to really do this, and if scum, i think this is also pretty bold because mocsta's obviously an aggressive player. i was accused of being scum and attempting to disrupt a town circle for telling mocsta to explain himself. he gives me a very very slight town lean (exact phrasing "starting to look better") at a time when it's totally unnecessary to do so, considering everyone else would most likely have slotted me into the "lurker, null, need to hear more from" category if prodded. admittedly his last post is a jumbled mess and i have no idea what he's saying with this: Show nested quote +Im going to go over your reads here and just ask you how you came to these because alot were null to me or the exact opposite of what you wrote so lets go.
1 hes trying to be clever there is nothing to be overdone and there is no way a troll post like this can be scummy, fuck the police was already taken...
2 why cant sciberia find the repeat and calling of you obv town scummy, but your troll post null as it was the first post in the thread? You getting that it is scum-scum interaction I dont understand how you get that read from this post.
3 how is this agressive, you put a pregame post restriction, then start the game numbering your posts, seems like you are going to keep your post restriction up. Calling you out for it isnt agressive its correct when all your first few posts are trolling.
4 this is fine
5 he made a troll response how is that overcompensated? Doesnt make sense and him not thinking the same as you is a scum read?
6 the first part of this is correct that post was null, the second part you can only get so much info from the first page and alot of page one was trolling. Telling someone to keep looking isnt scummy, its not damage control.

23 meh no point in continueing on with cora, him moveing on is fine and how he did it was fine.
24 really wishywashy post but also slightly dinstanceing himself from rean while giveing him a town read at the same time. I think this is really scummy from you mocsta. Your thoughts on rean is just really odd. but i do think it's a very strong point in his favor that his posts are coming off as being written with a lack of care as to how they'd be perceived.
Here is his defense of me, but my post on the bottom look at the part he quotes, its not the whole thing its just the part on mocsta, this is important because later he somehow thinks this is a case on cora. This is big why only quote the part where it is a case on mocosta but fail to realize it is a case on mocsta. The answer is he is scum and setting up town cred for defending someone alot of people had scum reads on at the time without actually reading what I wrote.

why don't you bold where i'm calling him scum? i'm asking him what he's trying to accomplish. if it's obvious to you what he's trying to accomplish, please enlighten me.
Nope you said " are you really going to bed when i'm around right now and willing to engage?" that is calling him out for going to sleep. Your response backpeddleing is more telling then you calling him out in the first place.

The whole game you've done nothing productive to the town. That case was so bad it's anti-productive. Try harder. I never made a case on you its a case on mocsta where the quote tags got messed up somehow... if it's not a case on cora, what's your case for voting cora?
Here is the crux of the matter you quoted my filter, cut off the portion that was a case on mocsta and here you think its a case on cora, this is impossible if you are town as you would have actually read my filter not just pick things out for no reason.

Moc, I'm quite concerned that you have already used up >25% of your "self-allotted posts". If you're going to start spamming, it's going to be a problem.
Now to my goals/early game statements:
1. I'm not gonna make any meta crap posts. TBH I don't remember anyone's meta and it's ridiculously stupid logic. I'm not going to stand for it and I don't think you guys should either.
2. I'm voting for the scummiest person. My last game was Titanic and it came down to 3-4 days of "X is scum, Y/Z/Q is scum as well". That led the town way off of the path and allowed my scum team the easiest scum win in a very long time. I don't care if they're not on the two lynch trains that are going to form. It's not instant majority so as long as I feel like I'm voting for the scummiest person in my opinion, I'm going to be happy with my vote.
3. I'm going to do my best to not be just an onlooker. I'm gonna try and facilitate discussion and ask a lot of questions instead of just answering questions and throw my ideas out there and just create more chaos.
On that note, sciberia needs to stop analyzing the first page so hard and just discuss. We're not going to find scum on the first page. You guys just need to talk instead of being at each other's throats 30 minutes into the game.
Couldn't agree more. Also, don't shit up the thread with useless spam like the LXIII game please. I tried keeping up but the amount of shit posts just trolling/making useless jokes/comments is unbearable and makes it impossible to tell low-laying scum from trolling townies. If anyone goes around posting stupid oneliners without saying anything meaningful they have my vote >.> Reans first post into the thread and it just fakes activity. He doesnt say what he agrees with and there are multiple things to agree with, does he agree with all or only some he, never actually says what points he agrees with. This is a very scummy first post. Also if mocsta didnt retract his post limit on himself I was going to call him scum, but he did and I am ok with it for now. I do want to point out he only takes it after cora points out his spam. But unlike cora I thought it was scummy, because it was a easy way to avoid conversation. The was one more post from mocsta I didnt like will find it in moment it was post 4or 5 where he gives 3 scum reads with no reason and then says half the thread hasnt posted so his reads can change. Coras case on Sciberia is terribad and scummy. Anyway rean is really scumm though. Sorry Im at the mall but when I am home I will catchup on both of my games and be up late playing. Ill be checking in periodicly while Im at the mall though. if he's scum, this is not at all a "safe" post to bust into the thread with. i think it's on point that he calls mocsta's thread presence out. i really want to believe moc is town, but i keep seeing small red flags embedded in his posts. he's the first person to really do this, and if scum, i think this is also pretty bold because mocsta's obviously an aggressive player. i was accused of being scum and attempting to disrupt a town circle for telling mocsta to explain himself. he gives me a very very slight town lean (exact phrasing "starting to look better") at a time when it's totally unnecessary to do so, considering everyone else would most likely have slotted me into the "lurker, null, need to hear more from" category if prodded. admittedly his last post is a jumbled mess and i have no idea what he's saying with this:Im going to go over your reads here and just ask you how you came to these because alot were null to me or the exact opposite of what you wrote so lets go.
1 hes trying to be clever there is nothing to be overdone and there is no way a troll post like this can be scummy, fuck the police was already taken...
2 why cant sciberia find the repeat and calling of you obv town scummy, but your troll post null as it was the first post in the thread? You getting that it is scum-scum interaction I dont understand how you get that read from this post.
3 how is this agressive, you put a pregame post restriction, then start the game numbering your posts, seems like you are going to keep your post restriction up. Calling you out for it isnt agressive its correct when all your first few posts are trolling.
4 this is fine
5 he made a troll response how is that overcompensated? Doesnt make sense and him not thinking the same as you is a scum read?
6 the first part of this is correct that post was null, the second part you can only get so much info from the first page and alot of page one was trolling. Telling someone to keep looking isnt scummy, its not damage control.

This is BS just because you got called out, if you actually read it you would see in the first line I am calling out the posters thought process, who is the poster mocsta, and the reason this is BS is because you quoted the cut off part.

Also I don't like the idea of lynching someone because "if he's town then he's worthless so it's a win-win". I dislike it in general. And specifically to rayn, if this helps you not lynch him, the last two times I've played with town rayn he has contributed significantly to town after questionable day 1's. There's nothing more for me to say about onegu, cora, and rean as they are all NOT HERE, which should be telling. What is holding you back from lynching them? also, it's not so relevant now that Cora has unvoted, but I drew you this: ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/nsg2TE5.png)
My problem is this he tunnels him the entire time but posts this I dont understand his motivation.
Then he never really pushes a cora lynch, he never gives reasons for it just we need people to switch.
And his first scum read rean is never mentioned again.

On November 23 2013 01:16 Bereft wrote: in response to thrawn:
as per my diagram:
when who you would lynch based on scum reads coincides with who you would lynch based on policy, it's not hard to become stuck or tunneled on the player in question.
I chose not to interact with him because he was spamming the thread and came off unwilling to listen to reason. anyone who confronted him HAD to be scum (see JJD, Mocsta). if you look back around page 30 or so (sorry I'm on my phone) when he jumps on me for having bad priorities, I try to engage and talk with him, but he just peaces out and goes to bed. whatever, it's 6am in Finland, I'm annoyed but willing to let that slide...but when he comes back the next day, there's no attempt to analyze anything I've said or have a dialogue with me. he rides in on his high horse, calls everything bullshit, and insults/points his finger everywhere, clogging up the thread with what appears to be no more than 5 second long analysis. IF(PLAYER THINKS IM SCUM, THEN HE'S SCUM, ELSE TOWN). it's like when you see a dangerous and crazy looking person in the street shouting at passerbys and you veer off course to walk around them. do you find it hard to see why I had no intention of interacting with him?
in my mind, it was a good and fair lynch up till about 8pm EST (2 hours before the deadline) when my town reads came back into the thread and voiced misgivings about the lynch choice and it became clear Rean was lurking and Onegu, Jampi were all absent. in retrospect, I should've stepped back and worked with them to find a better 2nd candidate, but (and this is where the 3rd circle of that Venn diagram comes into play) when it's close to the deadline and the person I'm tunneled on getting lynched is within grasp, it's hard to take a step back and rethink my stance. its like dangling something a toddler wants within arm's reach - it was hard for me to look away and reevaluate whether there was a better option further away across the room, and to change course so last minute seemed to put heavily risk a no lunch and put our consolidation into jeopardy.
with hindsight obviously I don't think it was a good lynch. but I do not think that it was an unfair lynch given the information available. I think the fact that you did not need to be persuaded to vote rayn implies that you agree, no? as a final point, yours and scib's defense rested purely on "rayn could do this as town". I'm fine with analysis without meta or analysis with meta, but the defense of rayn read to me as pure meta without analysis, which I found weak. maybe that's not how you guys intended it, but with the clock ticking down and rushed posting, that's how I read it.
let me know if you need me to explain any further.
And I hate this post he tunneled rayn the entire time, gives reasons why he was ok to lynch him even if he wasnt scum, then says yeah hindsight it was a bad lynch. The people who are town came in said he is town but I wasnt going to get off of him to find a second lynch, but yeah it was a bad lynch. Feels like scum trying to distance themselves from the mislynch after tunneling him to get him lynched.
|
Tldr
No one ever knows why he is voteing rean, after he votes rean he never mentions him again, reads my filter quotes the relevant part of my case on mocsta not the whole thing, later thinks its a case on cora, changes his read on me after I call him out for "being useless". Tunnels rayn, then switches to cora without and reason, back to rayn posts a venn diagram why he is ok to lynch rayn even if he is town, then after flip says rayn lynch was a bad lynch in hindsight.

@Onegu I'm unconvinced by your case on Bereft. Here are a few problems I see with it. Convince me I'm wrong.
In the post where you made a case on Mocsta, you quoted Mocsta's case on Cora, but the quoting was messed up so I assume Bereft must have read it as YOUR case on Cora with a case on Mocsta tacked on the end. I guess this proves that he wasn't reading very closely, but I don't see how this makes him scum. Your post was hard to follow. He basically said that he couldn't understand what you were talking about at all so he probably only skimmed it and assumed it was your case + vote on Cora.
It's not true that he never mentions Rean again. He has mentioned rean as someone we should consider lynching today. I don't blame him for not saying more about rean as rean has literally not been posting so it's hard to talk about him. I just went through Rean's filter for Aquanim and I had trouble finding things that weren't already beaten to death.

I'd be down lynching him tomorrow if it comes to that. You mean a scum off the Rayn lynch besides Onegu? Yeah. I would definitely not throw out the possibility that 2 scum were off the lynch. Not quite a scumslip, but pretty close I think. Cora posted quite a bit about how Onegu was likley scum because of how he voted. He made a post right before the flip where he wrote his name in red caps 3 times and then he made several posts after about how scummy he was.
So how exactly can someone who believes that say "I think if there was a scum OFF the Rayn lynch, it is very likely to be [Jampi]." His brain shouldn't even be able to process that sentence.
He tries to cover it up when questioned by saying: Yeah I meant BESIDES Onegu. But you would think that he wouldn't forget his top scum read.

Ok the thing with my case was yes the quoteing was messed up, but when bereft quotes it he only quotes the part I wrote, he didnt quote the whole thing. So he pulls that part out that he knows its from me but doesnt read it, why would he quote that part, the correct part without reading. If you actually read the first line you know I am responding to the original poster and that was mocsta. So why pull that out but not read it?
And the second part what is his motivation for posting the venn diagram in the first place if he truely believes rayn is town? Thats why I dont get a town person who has been tunneled the entire time on rayn post that venn diagram.

So play the game cora, dont policy vote someone because they question you, or if your scum feel free to continue doing it as it will get you lynched.

Just stop talking to me Onegu, you can't even explain why you aren't scum and you nitpicked on the fact that I contributed to town discussion in a different way than I had promised. You fail to realize that if you are town you automatically promise to contribute to town discussion in ANY way and you have failed at that.
Go back to your QT and figure out a way not to get lynched, idiot.

Case on mocsta will come tomorrow morning. Also if cora plays the game great, if not just let me know when he is the lynch. Because gamewise what he is doing is scummy, he can just hide behind his votes without actually voteing for his reads.

Im about to sleep but I want to explain why this post is very scummy, first if he actually plays like this, his vote will always be on someone who attacked him, and not necesseraly on his scumreads, even if he scum hunts like normal but votes like this he can make any case he wants because it doesnt matter, he never has to follow it up.
Second If he takes this stance back, he has already put it in peoples head that if you make a case on him he will jump you for it, so some people who like to avoid confrontation have a null read on him they wont push him when they would normally because of this post. (not saying anyone is like this but there could be)
Also he is the one who decides if someone is nit picking or not, your post could be a legit thing to point out like I feel mine was. Everyone else in the thread could feel it is legit but if cora doesnt you get his vote.
