DNP has made a single post that is obviously not a very good looking post. Didn't think I should spend too much time discussing obvious stuff. Hopefully he posts more.
"Hopefully".. and what happens if he doesnt?
This end remark is not congruent with the opening remark.
Is DNP a person of suspicion or not...

I don't think scum would be nervous talking about setup. I think it's scummy that setup is the only thing he chose to discuss.
This is beyond ridiculous.
The game started on page 14.
Sidespring made the post in question on page 16 at the behest of Robik.
Since then, his posts have been responding (somewhat) to accusations regarding him.
I have seen plenty of town only discuss setup early game; you have failed to elucidate me towards why this tell is only indicative of a mafia mindset.

Like I said I don't like the way Mattchew looks.

So yeah I have 2 scumreads indpendant of each other that don't really mesh well as scumbuddies.
So what is the outcome?
Are you keeping Sidesprang/Mattchew as a scum team; or are you rescinding a read?

JJD,

Please explain what is inherently scummy about giving out town reads? I can totally see what you are saying with regards to chewy being non-confrontational. This is weird because I perceive him to be a more aggressive player. If I had my choice, I'd very much prefer him to play this game similarly to how he plays on video, but that doesn't seem likely to happen...at least not given how he's played the game so far.

scummy <> only indicative of a mafia mindset. You read DNP as scum because he made 1 shitty post and then peaced. I have seen plenty of town make 1 shitty post and go awol for a while. Can you tell me why this tell is only indicative of a mafia mindset?

Uh neither. I think they are both scummy but I think it's unlikely that they are both scum together. Is something wrong w/ that?

I don't think it's a good idea. If you're keeping the vast majority in here and talk about weather in the QT that's fine with me and I think it is a lot better than having everyone spam it up in here.

Idk. I don't believe people who say they don't slip like that, I also don't believe you have to have slipped there at all. I do believe that I apparently make it look like single phrases that I find odd for whatever reason are huge things for me. I just like pointing it out and hearing opinions about it unless a shitton of that stuff masses together. To big of chance to just be wrong on it otherwise.


Pointing it out without waiting for him to do it again later or changing defeats the object of it doesn't it? It's totally baseless, especially if he isn't a native english speaker.

On a different topic let me reiterate:

Okay I'm done with the contest. Just won it. So let's talk mafia.

Anything interesting happening in your QT supersoft? This skanjab guy asked in mine wether mafia has 1 member per house.
Rather scummy question to me. There's really not much to get out of that. Obviously everyone assumes so at this point but what do you expect the hosts to answer to that? Up until this point it's just a no-brainer question that might have not been a no-brainer for him. I ask that kind of questions all the time but this particular one really makes it sound like he's trying to "just post something" and look like he's participating imo.



Can we assume so though? It is randomly distributed after all. We had something similar in our QT. Storrzerg asked pretty much the same thing.

Then there was Grack, he said he would not be participating in the pick up line event unless we had some spare, never knew google was a hard concept for some. What would be the point in not participating at this point as these items seem to be game changing, does he not want to win?




What would be people's motive (Grack) to not participate in an event? These items seem to be useful for finding scum and he implied that he didn't care which house they went to in the QT. Seeing as scum is randomly distributed it would be detrimental to go to another house that you don't know how many scum are in it. Why does he not care?

I don't know how many scum are in my house either lol.

i didnt like this "lol", i thought it looked pretty weak

saying lol at the end of a sentence is what you do when your texting a girl and you're nervous she wont understand what you're saying is a joke, aka weakness

His earlier scum read kind of reminded me of this - lol

Scum doesnt want to help lynch innocents so it's possible he doesnt want to give a scumread on anyone untill some townwagons form so he can make sure he doesn't have to be on one of em because he called that person scummy earlier.

JJD,

my core issue can be summed as:
#1: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=435582&user=JarJarDrinks
(Town Filter from BttB)

#2:

This is pretty much how I feel. Scum is looking for something "safe" to talk about. The fact that of all the things in the thread he could respond to, he chose setup talk, is scummy IMO.




Specifically,
#1 - As town you come out of BttB with the intent to do your own thing, call your own shots. Of note, you outline your positions in detail and are certainly not afraid to go against the grain.

#2
In this game, your filter is undeniably more passive than BttB. It is also full of +1's such that twice now you have agreed with the scum reads of people *YOU* previously declared as scummy. (roundabound with DNP, and mattchew with sidesprang).


Now, we could argue that in the time since BttB you have matured and become a better person. Thus, meta is out the window.
OR, we could go with the simpler solution and deduce that your sudden lack of a backbone is synonymous with rolling mafia.

What sayeth you.

Couldn't you argue the opposite applies as well? What if wagons form on two people that he has town reads on and then he can't vote on them because he committed to being town on them. I dunno...I think your argument is a tad fallacious. Having said that, I like this post from you, so you might have moved into my "fence" territory:

Meh, I don't really see too much of a difference. I definately started that game out very aggressive but I don't think there's really been too much stuff to attack in this game as of yet.

You could read some of my scum games I suppose since I don't think I've been passive in them.

You all call meta cases bad but you say yourself that everybody knows you lurk as scum, and you have been instakilled in that game cause the meta rule was accurate. Now that you've stepped up your play it's obvious that I won't keep pursuing you, but I stick to the opinion that you can't simply call meta shit, cause that's how I get caught when I'm mafia.

Besides, bad != Mafia.

I'm interested in opinions on sidesprang, as he has shown an early activity burst and cooled off very quickly. His questions don't really seem interested in the game, and I get what matt means with mafia-nervous post, it's as if he was shaking off any incentive to discussion.

THe point Mocsta made on QP is also good. Waiting for him to kinda justify his lack of inquisiveness.

Having said that about thrawn, I'm still not on the town side of things with him. But for now, I prefer to hear stuff from people who don't post much, the two above and you also can take DNP and grack into the category.

It's perfectly valid if you say you're suspicious of a person without voting for that person. This is instant majority we probably shouldn't be throwing around our vote carelessly.
