HF if nothing else his kitathoughts were in line with mine, concerned/tentative and not just jumping on kita for barely/not posting and doing nothing useful. His early game here FEELS different to me as well when you compare it to the last big themed game he was mafia in (i think his most recent, PYP: LOL).

i don't mind if it's different i'm just curious why it was such a completely off base thing to add to a post of scum suspects when it had no logical reasoning behind it and it wasn't even substantiated because he didn't even know who posted what

Curious is cool, but...doing that doesn't reads actively townie to me. A thrown-on "oh yeah and this".

I did. I just didn't terribly care. He clearly meant Scumeling when he said Alakaslam and anyone who wants to lynch Scumeling is town in my books.

Why haven't you read Scumeling's filter to see how obviously scum he is.

Because honestly everyone who has spent a bunch of posts sniping at each other makes me 0% motivated to read their stuff or listen to anything they say until they stop it and calm down.

You can also just follow HF's requests, but if any numbers were responsible for unspeakable crimes of violence against your ancestors and you therefore hate ALL numbers, my list of people involves no numbers.

Not me, I think maybe WoS? I'm talking to some sheep of the non-following and yes-counting variety.

I actually liked the bathroom break fake-analysis and don't want to lynch val

Also, I like these posts:

Look, I know you guys all hate RNG lynch but with 4 factions there's gonna be way more scum than usual, right? This means RNG has a much higher chance than usual of hitting scum. This is possibly the best time EVER for using RNg. Everyone lynch OdinofPergo, because statistically speaking he is scum.

Why does more factions = more scum? Wouldn't scum numbers stay the same to keep the ratio of scum/all players balanced?

As a member of the balance team, I can assure you that a multifactional game supports more scum than a non-multifactional game. There are a number of reasons for this. Part of it is that, say, in a 2-scum-faction game, half of the scum will push on each other for reasons unrelated to bussing, because they can't distinguish between "scum on the other scum team" and "town". They'll even shoot into each other sometimes. Town loses the ability to make some associative tells, but the amount of crosstalk from scum accidentally pushing or shooting each other makes up for it.

2+2 scum with each group having 1 kp will never be as effective as 4 scum with 2 kp working together at killing town.

That being said, you never mentioned any real objection to the concept of RNG, you just questioned my estimate of scum in this game. I can only assume you didn't object to actual RNG because you think it would be fine if more factions = more scum. So, now that I've shown that more factions = more scum, you'll vote odin, yes?

I would need some kind of hard evindence that there are multiple scum factions in this game to RNG lynch, since those additional factions could be third parties and that wouldn't necessarily increase the scum numbers.

The definition of factions pretty much means they have to be scum aligned. Otherwise we'd just call them "blues". Even if they were like 3p factions or whatever, we'd still want them dead, right?

Also nice goalpost moving.

1. "do more factions = more scum? wouldn't scum numbers stay the same to keep the ratio... balanced?" as a question implies that you, like me, expected all or most of the factions to be scum factions.

2. but then "additional factions could be third parties..." later on is what you say after I show solve #1.

So, what's the deal? Why the resistance on the odinofpergo lynch???

I don't see how my wording implies I thought all or most of the factions to be scum factions. My orginal assumption was that there would be only one scum faction, since that is how it usually is.

At the risk of being shouted at for setup talk, I'd be a bit disappointed if it was one scum faction. Cross-shooting (see BH's post) would be funnier.

(sort of acknowledgement that something he's doing might be scummy, doing it anyway for no reason but to add a little comment)

I really do think Odin is scum. Even his meta which Koshi thought exonerrated him, was actually very different from his town games. If you move to Odin, he becomes the lynch candidate. This is your chance, dude/lady.

BH I have a vote.

It could be yours, for the low, low price of telling me on a scale of 1-10 how much you truthfully think you can meta Odin

Oh no. Don't get me wrong. I had no clue how to read him last game, have 0 desire to or trust in any ability to put a meta to him. Just wanted to see whether you were overzealously pursuing this. If you told me you actually had meta I'd be worried.

Let's play a game!

I'm gonna give you a person. You're going tell me the towniest thing in their filter, the scummiest thing in your filter, and what you think their spirit animal is. You're also going to ignore that the previous sentence was grammatically incorrect and should have had "his/her" instead of their.

VALENIUS!

You can do the same to me when you return.

kita can you talk about mtam? You were looking earlier for a counterwagon to avoid blowout, now they appear in spades.

If you throw out the last couple posts that are intentionally trolly, how you feel about his/her play?

Sorry, can you do those things and add why you chose them? That's my bad I guess for not including it.

Also, no desire to assign someone back?

I liked you earlier because your posts felt fun and happy in a good way, and it looked like your newbie posts were fun and happy in a good way.

Your posts right now are fun and happy in a bad way. And you know that. AND THEY ARE VERY UNLIKE THE STEREOTYPICAL CANADIAN SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO MAKE OF THAT, REALLY.

Haha, I was just looking at hapa. Wants to see stuff from you before maybe moving to Odin, which would indicate that he's looking at the thread to see if you post anything.

But mtam is posting what mtam is posting, and hapa was JUST looking at mtam, and doesn't pop in for any kind of comment.

Spades? -_-

YOU WILL PAY FOR THAT ONE.

As for tam, I know I've made similar stream of consciousness posts as town after catching up on a large amount. Ya, they are usually pretty bad, but you find yourself gathering quotes of interest and then sharing your thoughts without realizing most of the things aren't really relevant anymore. I think the vote on poofter an hour before the lynch is pretty terrible. Overall, I see a player that is only interested in interacting with his little group and playing for personal amusement, but not necessarily scum yet.

Qua? What am I paying for?

How about his earlier stuff? There was nothing from you about him as a whole when I looked back through, although he was on a list of 4 dudes that...I think it was you saying MZ or WoS could look at. Something.

And I guess more specifically, you see him as catching up on a large amount?
