The sidesprang case is the bait and switch one right? He isn't too active, which is usually what you do if someone accuses you and they are right. He doesn't have alot to go on.

OK this sentence just reeks of a scum mindset w/ the knowledge that cora is town. Because yes, asking someone to vote for yourself is anti-town when you are actually town. But if you're scum then it's just a kinda dumb, ballsy move. But it isn't anti-town. Any comments on this? @ least would like to hear what people think of sidespring. i think it's equally dumb as either alignment, 100% alignment neutral. What is your point sir? btw voting you now based on on your scummy posting pattern. Also you bring up your shit point and want people to comment on it like its gold. ##unvote ##vote jarjar My point was that I wanted to know if anyone had comments on it and I wanted to know people thought of sidespring. Pretty sure that was implied. I'm reading sidespring as scum and would like to know if other people are as well. You think that asking people vote for yourself is alignment nuetral? Great, I agree that a person doing that doesn't help tell you what their alignment is. What I'm saying though is that it's anti-(whatever alignment that person is). So to say it's anti-town seems to imply that the person saying it is town.So before you call my point shit, make sure you understand what I'm saying. Exactly I currently view everyone as town, people have done scummy things. But no one are scum In my eyes yet, if so I would have voted for em. So why I would phrase that in any other way I really do not know, and tbh you just seem desperate to find something that is not there.
He is from Norway, his English might not be the best, but he has odd ways of approaching the game. He just needs to post more I think.
LSB, can you point out exactly what the bait and switch was from?

I don't man, mafia don't single out people to send little messages. I've got this special power rangers post, and I think he was trying to tell me something.

Can we go back to lynching pandain?

Sorry I don't have great scum reads right now, but I think slam is blue. He could just be random, but his posts indicate a vig or something.
I don't like panda ins reasons. I don't think comparing me to a vastly different game is right, and even then I don't think I'm posting that differently there. And after that he gets on holy for not staying on me. I do agree with Pandain on Slam, but his whole anti policy lynch spiel doesn't sit right with me. Generalizations about scum defending policy lynches seems poorly thought out. Why wouldn't they remark on something that's subjective in either direction? Policy lynches are often revealing, and while I don't think Slam is a good one, it would make it easy for him to get his points across or probably not post.
He says he can decipher slams posts, but I'd like to know because I've been trying to no avail.

How can you read 6 pages of filter and arrive at zero conclusions?
I said you were interesting, because I liked your posts. I used your posts to read kush, so thanks for that.

I have to vote someone, is there anyone besides Slam we can think about? All my reads are popping up green. What about purple, did he ever come back?

What about vayneauthority, I don't have a read there

I wish I could contribute more, but I'm caught up at work

I didn't get the chance to review vayneauthority, and it would be unfair to vote him over Slam knowing that

Apologies for the Day 1. We really lynched spaghetti? I think we are being a little too harsh if we are willing to lynch off an active poster for failing to post results so early. He had very unique (and wrong) conclusions, but it was pretty obvious he was genuinely trying to help at least the atmosphere.

All you have to say is someone is mafia because of some assumed connection because they tried to guess someone's identity. Every other post you have made is an OMGUS to call out people who are telling you to go scumhunt or telling you why your logic does not make sense. You are not really trying to find mafia and your attitude towards people in this game gives out you are working under fear, pressure, insecureness and inherent guilt.
##Vote: Spaghetticus
I think this sum's up how aggressively we are approaching scumhunting. Picking apart what people say to get reads is fine, but concluding that everything a person says that doesn't resolve in a red read is quite vicious, and I think it's detrimental for players when we want them to be open about their posts. Forcing questions and re-establishing scum-hunting lines are great for a distracted an inactive town, but I think we've established that everyone here is willing to try, and scum is willing to post as well.
Repeatedly harping on people for content and reads stalls thread discussion rather then promoting it. Trust town to reach it's conclusions eventually. The enviroment is becoming so negative that I don't think Spaghetti felt comfortable being free with hisposts, when he really should have no such inhibitions as a townie.
Let's minimize the Spaghettis and be a little more lenient with our pace. I can't imagine what you guys start posting like when it's down to the wire if that was the day 1 atmosphere.

Is there a day 1 voting list? I can't seem to find it.

This is the game I belong in :D

Sweet, have you looked at jarjar?

Well, I have, and I like to pick up on certain aspects of certain players in certain games. JJD is pretty good at piggybacking.

And then he pretty much admits that he's casting suspicion on townie looking people because it's "typical of [his] style". So again, he's pointing out how what he's saying makes him town.

I agree we should not let lurkers stay silent, and should poke anyone that stays silent for to long. But there is a lot of value in not spamming down the thread if you are town, that will only make the scummy post harder to see. I'm mainly looking at you Xatalos, as you are on your third page in filter with like half of the post being oneliners. Even if town you will be detrimental to the town if you keep this up! There are others aswell, just used you as an example.
--------
About Cora there are a few things I did not like and caught my eye. His opening post is not good, and if he's mafia hes basically just buying himself an excuse to lurk for day 1 and then come out day 2 and bring chaos onto the town.
He also deflected a lot in his defence and basically just said "look at X he's scummier than me".
And lastly he asked for people to vote for him if they found him scummy, which is very Anti-Town.
I do not feel cora is mafia yet at least, but definetly worth to look at.
-------
@Kish, can anyone that have played with him earlier say something about how he plays. He is deffo playing the most anti town atm, but he's also doing it on purpose which is frustrating.
I really really do not like this post as an entry post: A) Sheeps everthing I have mentioned on Cora. B) Uses a big chunk of his entry post saying why cora is displaying mafia associated traits but won't vote him yet? C) Mentions Xatalos in a completely non-inquisitive manner, no justification on a read based on Xan's posts or anything. Agree completly w/ holy here. I had the same thoughts reading it. Also worth mentioning is how that first paragraph says absolutely nothing. Just obvious stuff like lurking is bad and people shouldn't spam. It's not like he's using it to call out Xatalos since he says he's just using him as an example. It's just a safe non-confrontational post.

I'm not still sure why VA is #2 in votes. Apparently he contradicted himself, but why is he scum just for that? It's not like he needed to talk about how he'd love to NK / lynch Alakaslam.

I've already pretty much answered all of this In this game the thread sentiment actually suggests vigi's WILL shoot useless people. Let's consider a scenario where you are scum. If Slam is scum you: 1) can reasonably assume a vigi will shoot him on N1 anyways so 2) when you lynch him instead you gain towncredit 3) even if you don't succeed, you gain town credit when he flips red 4) you don't need to contribute anything useful If Slam is town you: 1) can't be held responsible for anything scummy because it's a pro-town thing to suggest a policy lynch on him anyways 2) you don't need to contribute anything useful So, why again is it unreasonable to assume you would vouch for his lynch as mafia? because I would never, ever help town get rid of somebody so detrimental to town. He adds another scumplayer to my team, why would I want to get rid of him ever? I could just sheep you on spag or something dumb like that. I know exactly what it looks like.
I think contradictions are awesome to find, but comparing these two is reaching. Hard. Even if Vayne felt two different ways about the way he plays in two different posts, you need to build off that to actually get a read. I know JJD was against policy lynching slam, but I found this vote very telling that he is willing to do so if it gives him an easier explanation.
I thought it would be worth pointing out

He doesn't try to argue that I should be lynched at all after a certain point, just let's it happen.
You are like Spag 2.0

I was wrong to defend Slam by the way. He would be a properly good vig hit.
The votes.
They speak to me.
Votes, what are you saying?
What's that about Alakaslam?
His wagon?
Apathetic?
Gasp, you are right votes!

I feel like alot of players here see this game as a boxing match. It is if you play it like one.
