Hm, good to know. I won't initiate many conversations either but because of different reasons. I think it is hard enough to manage the thread and filters without having to pm a shitload of people while doing so. I will respond to people but I will pm people first only if I have a very specific reason to do so or if I really respect their opinion and want to know it.

Not considering the play of the person in question? are you flipping kidding me? kush's play is not necessary "awful" per se but it's the kind of play that in my personol onion demands a response that optimizes our chance of winning this game. That response is lynching kush. I know EXACTLY how kush is going to play this game, and let's not kid anyone here: so do you. He's going to lurk. he's going to make occasional posts. If he's town, he will try to vote whoever is the scummiest, but if he's scum his activity will basically be the same. We should get rid of him.

Well IF Kush is playing this way and you still think nobody will be able to read him - ok. But I don't think threating him this way (deciding to kill him without caring about what he actually does) improves the situation with him.

I'll run for mayor if/when I find a candidate I want to lynch or I think town is going full on dumbo.

Keep in mind that the mayor has more power than deciding the Day1 lynch.

I am here for maybe 1 hour before I have to leave for ~ 3 hours again to travel. After that I will be fully available for a longer timer. I will try to catch up for now. If there are any important things to look at more closely point me to it.

This page

is a read from Kush regarding you.

You call that a read? Maybe have a look at my last game where I got in a huge fight with bugs about the same topic. We can look at his actual play (which based on this read on me is pretty bad I admit especially because he knows I defended him last game) before deciding to policy lynch him, no?

So does BH wanting to policy lynch kush make him mafia? How so?
In the last game BH wanted to policy lynch someone who would not contribute. He was confirmed town in that game and did nothing but wanted to policy lynch a lurker, all game.

I didn't say or even imply that, it's clear you're not reading. I'd like him to explain the mass PM and why he sent it to me first then didn't respond to my reply, I want to know his intentions there. Just like I wanted to know his intentions for the Kush lynch, which he admitted were sincere, but then is going to push me as mayor even though I most definitely won't lynch the person he wants lynched which means he must not have cared much about it in the first place. That's not really what I'd call tunneling and it doesn't seem like he's taking his policy lynch seriously so it's curious he hasn't abandoned the idea already. It's even more curious that anyone else would think it's a good idea. It's curious. I want him to respond. I want answers from him. I demand them. This is part of the process of scumhunting. Not pulling hyperbolic accusations out of your ass prematurely, it's a process.

I obviously get why you think the policy is bad but I don't understand the bolded. How would you know at that point that you won't think Kush is scummy later on?

Agreed with Mocsta, suchdoge is the scummiest person in the thread.

D'you reckon you can explain this to me? That long post of his looks like it was written pregame, and therefore doesn't tell me much regarding his alignment. He's also expressed a desire to talk with people (specifically VE) which isn't the most intuitive thing I'd expect a scum smurf to do.

If he thinks that long post is sufficient contribution for the day I'll agree with you that he's likely scum - but I don't see any reason to believe yet that there won't be more material forthcoming from him.

Is there anything else making you lean scum on him? Convince me.

His post says Mig and marv are good players. So is DrH, but not as good as Mig or marv.
DrH writes posts with many words.
PM me and let's discuss reads, i won't do that in thread.

Somehow I feel those quotes don't go to well together. Could you explain this?

The thing that sucks about making rayn mayor is he is really bad at d1. He is best at analyzing the consistency in someone's reads, but you can't really do that yet d1.

This is so wrong. If anything Day1 is rayns biggest strength. Just look at the last game.

Apparently i thought Cheesecake was town last game, i wasn't the driving force behind lynching Corazon and Artanis was an easy catch on N1. But in the end kush might misremember that game..

Apparently in Extractor trick in the end of D1 my scumreads were gumshoe and yamato. I think thrawn can tell more about this.

Also in other games kushm4sta has played with me my D1 reads have been terrible. He won't elaborate more though.

Ok, I don't know which games you are talking about but I will take your word for it I guess.

No idea. You could think someone else is better suited or have other reasons. Like Marv who doesn't seem to be interested in being mayor.

Implied suspicion?

I think Xatalos is townie from what I know of him. This seems nitpicky.

I don't think so at all. You have four or five people listed, you only barely called one of them scum, you're not really asking questions of any of them. If I was on that list I wouldn't feel any need to respond to anything Xatalos said. He talks about suchdoges suspicious behavior then says it's more likely town than scum so what is he even getting at? I wish people would stop posting lists like that, they're the worst posts ever.

So DrH you make a post like this where i assume you call Xatalos scummy.
About 10 minutes later you PM me about your scumreads and "funny feelings" but Xatalos is not there. Why?

what do you mean why

You give me a list of your scumreads. I assume you are asking me about what i think of them. If Xatalos is your scumread why the hell is he not on the list?

And why are you voting for yamato for mayor if i am going to execute your scumread?

i don't like you to be honest i've never hated anyone in a game more than i hate you but i think you're town, i'm being petty

This only answers the second question and not the first one.

let's talk about how derrida is scum

Yeah, OK.

Reasons to think he's scum:
list post, but that's a heuristic in which I have only limited confidence
bases his mayoral preferences first on "enjoying reading their filter because it is srs" and second his read on them

Reasons to think he's town:
I got nuffin, but I do have...

Reasons I'm not certain yet:
he has like 2 posts and being a newbie his thinking about "is this relevant to whether they should be mayor or not" probably isn't expected to be entirely accurate whatever his alignment

tl;dr I'm not certain he's scum but he's a reasonable guess

P.S. will go meta him now re. Marv's statement

do you have a stronger read on someone else then?

No. I have a couple of similar strength though.

All I see in justanothertownie's two-page filter is kinda pointless oneliners in which he commits to almost nothing. For all I know he's doing work in PMs, but based on his thread presence so far he's another possible scum for me.

This one isn't a scumread as such, but as long as Captain Obvious continues to post only "obvious" stuff and committing to nothing he's going to be next to impossible to read I think.

And then there's the eight or so other lurkers.

Of the active players I reckon at least most are town.

Maybe you could point out the scummy things in my 2 page filter then? Or is my thread presence the only reason for your read? You don't even have one filter page and call other people lurkers...

The most important thing to me right now is to find a good mayor. Right now I think that would probably be rayn because he is one of the few people that look really townie to me.

If we would be talking about a normal game you would probably be right. But this is a mayor game.
If you want to hear my reads you could question me you know? But you didn't do that. You did not try to figure out my alignment and instead just threw shit on me.

See, the thing is that if somebody accused me in the way that I just accused you, as a townie I would not have attacked them back. I would have thought "hey, they have a point. I should post my reads and convince them I have actually been thinking about the game."

Also, just because this is a mayor-election day doesn't mean we shouldn't talk about who is scum.

The bolded is obviously true but it is of secondary importance to me right now.
If someone who looked townie accused me I probably would have reacted that way. But it was you who did next to nothing himself and to me it looks really suspicious that my lack of public reads is the scummiest thing you found in this game.

If we would be talking about a normal game you would probably be right. But this is a mayor game.
If you want to hear my reads you could question me you know? But you didn't do that. You did not try to figure out my alignment and instead just threw shit on me.

See, the thing is that if somebody accused me in the way that I just accused you, as a townie I would not have attacked them back. I would have thought "hey, they have a point. I should post my reads and convince them I have actually been thinking about the game."

Also, just because this is a mayor-election day doesn't mean we shouldn't talk about who is scum.

The bolded is obviously true but it is of secondary importance to me right now.
If someone who looked townie accused me I probably would have reacted that way. But it was you who did next to nothing himself and to me it looks really suspicious that my lack of public reads is the scummiest thing you found in this game.


what in your opinion is the scummiest thing in the game?

Good question. I thought some things BH said were pretty scummy but that was probably wrong obviously... and call it OMGUS but I think Aquanims wishy washy stance on Derrida (he himself felt the need to answer the question about Derrida which was directed at everyone and then only came up with this inconclusive statement - why even say anything about it then?) + his attack against me is scummy too.
If someone wants my opinion on something/someone just ask me. It's not hard...
But I have to leave for real now.

Well the reason for this is probably that some of those reads were indeed formed on the spot. I did not think deeply about all of the persons on your list and had to think about what my actual opinion on some of them is.

I know, that's what's fucked up in PM games. Noone does anything in thread. That's what i was trying to say early on in the game but apparently noone gives a shit.

This is so annoying to me. It is hard enough to read people in normal games but here everyone can just say "no, I won't post in thread I pm people". The problem is if you pm those people they can choose what to tell you specifically. There is no possibility of reading people by their way of interacting with each other... I hate this.

Well for starters I'd appreciate it if you say where I "called people out for making general statements". I remember calling JAT out for "having no commitments regarding any reads at all in his entire filter" which is not at all the same thing.

Also, everybody makes some general statements, including me. I've also made some not-general statements. What exactly is your point?

I also can't help but notice that you haven't really answered my question. Would you care to correct that?

Where is your commitment to your reads then? You backed off when rayn said I play this way as town and you are still flip flopping about Derrida.

I don't understand why this is this hard. There are a fuckton of people who have been present but done "no scumhunting".
Why is JAT scum over suchdoge, marvellosity, WoS, Mocsta, Koshi, etc.. Why you need to single out JAT and not other people?

Having a scumread on him because he hasn't done shit is okay, but why him and not those others?

Talked with marv and mocsta in PMs and I'm confident they're thinking about the game, hoping someone else who actually wants to deal with suchdoge in PMs will read him, have a slight townread on WoS (and he's pushing suchdoge, anyway, so your characterisation is inaccurate here), and I don't like Koshi's play so far either but I'll get to him later.

If I tried to push eight lurkers at once I wouldn't get anywhere. By pushing JAT alone I've drawn reactions from him and others and moved the thread forward.

(Before you ask, I'm not telling you everything I've learned from pushing JAT. Deal with it.)

You still haven't explained why you think VE's town.

1) You call me out for having 2 pages of filter and no reads.
2) You call me a lurker.
You can't have it both ways.
3) You tell us you have townreads on players who didn't do more than me because of pm conversations. Why didn't you pm me then? Are you interested in figuring out my alignment at all or are you just looking for someone to throw shit on to look like you are contributing?

What is the point? If it is the same question you could also just answer rayn... ignoring him only makes sense if his questions seem dumb to you. If they are there is no benefit in answering them if someone else asks them.

You must not take the absence of something convincingly town as meaning they are mafia! Perhaps they have not yet had their chance to prove their towniness!

In other news, Koshi still has not replied. It concerns me that he is happily chitchatting but stops messaging once I ask for something actually game-related!

Are you actually chezinu? So many exclamation marks.

You aren't your intelligent and independent self. You also say you got to go in a hurry and then stay for 25 minutes. Twice now.

Really Koshi? I am scummy because I stay a little longer than I said before? Explain please.
When I said I was in a hurry I certainly did not stay 25 minutes longer. I remember this as one of my last posts at that time. How would you define my intelligent and independent self? Where is the difference to my usual play?

It's weird to make a post that essentially functions as a list of accusations/scumreads without actually calling anyone scummy/scum/or likely scum and even admitting in suchdoges case that he doubts he is mafia? So what's even the point of saying anything then.

Implied suspicion?

I think Xatalos is townie from what I know of him. This seems nitpicky.

I don't think so at all. You have four or five people listed, you only barely called one of them scum, you're not really asking questions of any of them. If I was on that list I wouldn't feel any need to respond to anything Xatalos said. He talks about suchdoges suspicious behavior then says it's more likely town than scum so what is he even getting at? I wish people would stop posting lists like that, they're the worst posts ever.

So DrH you make a post like this where i assume you call Xatalos scummy.
About 10 minutes later you PM me about your scumreads and "funny feelings" but Xatalos is not there. Why?

what do you mean why

You give me a list of your scumreads. I assume you are asking me about what i think of them. If Xatalos is your scumread why the hell is he not on the list?

And why are you voting for yamato for mayor if i am going to execute your scumread?

i don't like you to be honest i've never hated anyone in a game more than i hate you but i think you're town, i'm being petty

This only answers the second question and not the first one.

Yeah, OK.

Reasons to think he's scum:
list post, but that's a heuristic in which I have only limited confidence
bases his mayoral preferences first on "enjoying reading their filter because it is srs" and second his read on them

Reasons to think he's town:
I got nuffin, but I do have...

Reasons I'm not certain yet:
he has like 2 posts and being a newbie his thinking about "is this relevant to whether they should be mayor or not" probably isn't expected to be entirely accurate whatever his alignment

tl;dr I'm not certain he's scum but he's a reasonable guess

P.S. will go meta him now re. Marv's statement

do you have a stronger read on someone else then?

No. I have a couple of similar strength though.

All I see in justanothertownie's two-page filter is kinda pointless oneliners in which he commits to almost nothing. For all I know he's doing work in PMs, but based on his thread presence so far he's another possible scum for me.

This one isn't a scumread as such, but as long as Captain Obvious continues to post only "obvious" stuff and committing to nothing he's going to be next to impossible to read I think.

And then there's the eight or so other lurkers.

Of the active players I reckon at least most are town.

Maybe you could point out the scummy things in my 2 page filter then? Or is my thread presence the only reason for your read? You don't even have one filter page and call other people lurkers...


But I just glanced over some pages of PYP and you do this kinda one-liners there as well so mehhhh.


okokok

You are off the list.

Is your confidence in your other reads of similar strength?

We've been talking all game and I've been very friendly in a "i'm town reading you" way, but I've gone back and forth from scum and town reading him without him knowing. All he knew up till I posted my case is that I was probably town reading him based on how I acted in PMs. Then suddenly I reveal my scumread to him and the thread, and he's still interested in talking to me even after he knows I strung him along in PMs. I don't think that as scum, his first reaction would be to immediately talk to the guy who just "betrayed" him.

Well if he was scum don't you think it would be his primary goal to convince you that your suspicion is wrong? By refusing to talk to you he certainly would not achieve that.

Yes, that would be his goal. But I have to make a call, and my call is that that post was genuine. This part here:

"Well, I still think you're town (perhaps even more so now, that case felt about right as your town mentality)"

looks very much like a real thought process that actually occured in a town aqua's mind

Ok... I actually thought your post about him made plenty of sense and I don't see how this pm can't be written by scum.

So do you think this is unreasonable? This is about your reads post i talked about earlier:

<VisceraEyes> But what I really don't like about it is that he later asks me what I think of it...as if I should already be aware of his stance on justanothertownie, when he states quite literally that those reads are about as firm as his null read of someone else.

Well. I gave my problems with Captain Obvious the thread space they deserved, which was about a sentence. It's not like I'm screaming for a policy lynch of him - just gave my opinion of him.

And why shouldn't VE be aware of my stance on justanothertownie? The conclusion of my clash with JAT is literally on the same page as where I asked him that question. Is he not reading the thread or something?

For that matter, why shouldn't I ask VE for his opinion on a read I'm pushing?

I question the purpose of VE raising any of those points.

Because you don't really have a stance. You call JAT out for not posting reads. Why is JAT a scumread when about 80% of the game has not posted a single read?

Well for starters I'd appreciate it if you say where I "called people out for making general statements". I remember calling JAT out for "having no commitments regarding any reads at all in his entire filter" which is not at all the same thing.

Also, everybody makes some general statements, including me. I've also made some not-general statements. What exactly is your point?

I also can't help but notice that you haven't really answered my question. Would you care to correct that?

Interesting. I don't see a single clear read from you in thread. If there is some, could you point me out to one? All i see you say about other people is "they might be town or scum". And yes i answered your question. You asked me if i have a reason to think VE is town and i said i do.

Do you have a reason to think VE is mafia?

I think JAT is much more likely to be scum than town, for the reasons stated earlier - namely that he didn't seem to have any reads, even when I pushed him for it. I've seen the PMs Thrawn referenced here and I find JAT's reads there entirely unconvincing, just some lacklustre one-liners. Derrida moderately more likely to be scum than town, but that could change fast since his filter really doesn't have much to go on yet.

And yes, I have a reason to think VE is mafia. There, see? Two of us can play that game.

As a FYI, bugs kinda laid into jat in Quiet game for "having no reads" while he was alive, both in-game and post-game.

Surprised you didn't notice this given you hosted it? Or take this into account at all into your read...?

It would be an easy playstyle to replicate if he's scum. At worst, if he's town I have hopefully communicated to him that he should have reads and make them public to convince us all of his alignment. If he does that I am quite willing to be persuaded that I am incorrect in my present read, if that is in fact the case.

Town Aquanim from BttB

The differences should be pretty obvious. Aquanim is clearly player who as town (which he's always rolled previously) likes to put a lot of thought into his reads and effort into his posts. He's doing neither of those this game. His explanations for reads only go surface deep, and many of his reads follow the pattern of "maybe this, maybe that, and here's an out for my future self." He doesn't screw around like that as town. He thinks through a problem, and comes to a conclusion which he clearly states. I've been having trouble getting firm reads out of him for much of the game, and when he considers a person's alignment he only takes small portions of their play into account. This is not the thoughtful town Aquanim that I've played with.

I also want to mention that I've been in PM contact with him since 15:40 KST, roughly two hours ago and he has not posted in the thread during that time. I'm fairly sure that I noticed this happening earlier in the game. His thread presence is non-existent, but since that is the case with so many likely-townies because of PMs I'd like to hear if any of you have PM'd him enough to get a read on him.

Am I the only one who has issues with some of those reads?
Even if I put his read on me aside there are problems here:
He states that the only things gumshoe has done were townie - is ok lynching him.
He states Koshi has done nothing townie - true. But Koshi did play like that in recent games and I somehow doubt he would play this blatantly scummy if he was indeed scum. Ok, maybe Aquanim didn't follow those games.
But the kicker is this rayn read. Holy shit.
No, OMGUS is not the thing rayn does at all. I basically fought with rayn for half of the PYP really hard and he still had a townread on me for almost the whole game as far as I know. And I totally agree that discussing reads in pm while maybe helping to figure the specific person out prevents other players from reaching conclusions and isn't that helpful for town as a whole. This seems like a really weak cop out to not have to face rayn and/or his reads.

Well. I gave my problems with Captain Obvious the thread space they deserved, which was about a sentence. It's not like I'm screaming for a policy lynch of him - just gave my opinion of him.

And why shouldn't VE be aware of my stance on justanothertownie? The conclusion of my clash with JAT is literally on the same page as where I asked him that question. Is he not reading the thread or something?

For that matter, why shouldn't I ask VE for his opinion on a read I'm pushing?

I question the purpose of VE raising any of those points.

Because you don't really have a stance. You call JAT out for not posting reads. Why is JAT a scumread when about 80% of the game has not posted a single read?

JAT had clearly been present for a fair bit of the game but hadn't done anything which seemed like he was even interested in looking for scum.

As for rayn, if you think my view is groundless I guess you didn't read Back to the Basics, which is my only first-hand experience with him.

I'm going to recast my question to you very simply.

Do you think I am the best lynch tomorrow or not?

You seem like a decent lynch, yes.

As for rayn, if you think my view is groundless I guess you didn't read Back to the Basics, which is my only first-hand experience with him.

I'm going to recast my question to you very simply.

Do you think I am the best lynch tomorrow or not?

You seem like a decent lynch, yes.

That wasn't the question I asked. "Decent" isn't the same thing as "best".

I want you to say, one way or the other, whether you think at this time there are NO other people in the game who are more likely to flip scum than me.

Luckily it is N1 and the end of day2 is far away. You are the player who I have the worst feeling about right now so if I had to lynch someone this instant it would be you.
I have a problem forming that many scumreads this game because I usually go mostly by PoE and with that many lurkers/replacements + some people only being active in pm this doesn't work that well this game so I have to have to go with what stands out as scummy to me (you).

It's the way he posts. He has really good posts. Especially lately.

For example?

Being suspicious of you, because you had a hard time getting reads cos everyone was in PM's. Now we have a scum flip and you are still not getting anything out of it.

How does being suspicious of me before the flip make him look good then? But you are actually right. I didn't really go back to what Xatalos said yet and should probably do that asap.

I (and everyone else, I imagine) would like to know what conclusions you draw from connections to Xatalos.

I am going through his filter right now will post conclusions when I am done with that. You should do the same.

Ok, so I don't give to much weight in Xatalos' early conversations like the one with gumshoe because there are no consequences to them. The pm thing with DrH points towards DrH being town pretty heavily though. That's just to weird for scum to fake me thinks.
I think it is interesting that Xatalos supported yamatos campaign. Leads me to the question if mafia tried for mayor at all. I am not really sold about yamato but marv told me he looked good in pms. The only ever so little opposition against marv besides that was WoS. Hmm...
Xatalos also seems to have a weird fixation for VE somehow. Brings him up really often without VE really doing that much and only puts him as a secondary scumread. Maybe a soft bus? He seems more certain about killing Derrida which makes that slot look a little better to me.
Ok, wow those pms with Aquanim are quite exzessive for scum to fake and Aqua even started them. Damn.

Hm? I remember pming you opinions on both Xatalos and WoS day1. I had no opinion on VE that is correct. I always have problems reading VE and he didn't seem that important to me day1.

While you are absolutely right about their play and I also agree that there should definitely be logs - I get that BH does strange and risky plays but claiming maison would be totally retarded. They can't even be saved so the longer the game goes the less excuse is there for them to survive. They absolutely will be caught if they are scum and out not one but two members.

So off hand my scumreads that are left are WoS and JAT. WoS doesn't really seem to be playing as others have said, and I think JAT has when he has showed up been pushing an actively antitown agenda. Here are my thoughts:

A lot of his posts that look like interactions are not really interactions (link)(link)(this entire page of filter). Eventually he does give out a single unsupported read when he's seriously called out, then he bails (link).

Even his attack post on thrawn2112 is super weak (link) and he's done nothing useful tonight except semispeculate on the xatalos associative tells, a player he didn't mention all day D1 (this is scummy).

I want to lynch jat tomorrow. thoughts?

Not sure, its just how it is. If Xatas in a game making posts is like writing underwater.

What prevents you from ignoring him? Are you trying to act dumb on purpose?

Hes done it to me + doge.

I just cant understand him; I cant understand the motives for his actions; nor the objectives of his posts.
Currently I am attributing that as mafia struggling to contribute.

I only have LoL to compare to, where town Bum was open with his thoughts regardless of how useful or useless they were.

Oh you can, its not like I'll be doing much more dead than I am alive and I have certainly not played pro town this game. Of course there is precedent for me doing this as town (double precedent in fact) your still free to lynch me, you just wont be getting the result you want ) :

Gumshoe, do you think as town you would say this in voice?

What does voice have to do with forum? My Forum meta allows for this sort of douchbaggery, thats all thats relevant.

Can someone just shoot this guy? Omg...

I suggest this convo be continued POST-GAME in the ban thread or whatever.

This is probably the only solution besides aborting the game.

We had 2 very good mislynches with VE and gumshoe. Who knows how this game would have turned out especially if Aquanim had checked Vayne like he said he probably would have. I won't deny that town had the edge (and I certainly won't claim scum played well) but this wasn't over.

I do think u were nailed for the approach to the mayor. Even though u ended up in pm with them, the thread actions didn't support it.

All good anyways. U were the only guy I rhymed to.
So well earned haha


Ohh and thrawn was a pm fiend . Absolutely. Scary stuff what that guy knew.

I don't think I would have approached the mayor election very differently as town. There were other indicators though.

Everything fine Aquanim.

For what it's worth, shortly before the modkills happened, VE spoke to me on IRC, and the conversation went along the lines of

"you actually think I'm town don't you"
"yes, but I'm terrified of being wrong and looking stupid for it, but yes I think you're town"

edit: but I did want to lynch gumshoe right at that moment, the modkills came at a terrible time for him to reappear

That's one reason I use a spreadsheet actually, I don't usually say that much on them, but it's my "rational" place, where people get up/downgraded with due thought and without emotional flippancy. So what I'm pursuing in thread doesn't necessarily quite line up with my 'inner' reads that I decide to lynch later.

For some particular reason, my reads shift after the lynch/during N1 were something like

bum neutral -> town
yamato town -> neutral -> town
Mig neutral -> town
Koshi neutral -> town
gumshoe town -> neutral
Captain Obvious suspicious -> neutral
Aquanim neutral -> town
chinstrap neutral -> suspicious
BC neutral -> suspicious
Wave neutral -> suspicious (oops really)
VE suspicious -> neutral

jat had the sole honour of never being coloured anything at all all game

Then I am actually not that disappointed with my play. Although it sucked.
Bum said that he was about to go after other targets after I gave him my pms to you from day1. Sadly that wouldn't have helped me since he suddenly passed away...

Yeah, I would also like to know who suchdoge is. Much respect.
