Maybe you understood this from my post, but what I'm saying is that after hopeless calls slam town for jokey reasons (not reading the original post) he says

big whoop, wanna fight about it? so I think it is fine to question whether the prior post was a joke because he was referring to it again.
I don't think this conversation is too good but we can talk about it more if you want, I will stick around for about another hour so I can needle another game :3
@raynpelikoneet: What do you think of Toad's comments on hopeless' posts here http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/445571-doctor-who-mafia-2?page=18#347 ? (I thought you commented on them but then I couldn't find them in the thread)

I am fine with you not saying what the power is right now. @Toadesstern: Since your post mentions a power, let me ask what do you think of raynpelikoneet's suggestion of massclaiming?

I agree with you - I feel like Toad does not explain his rationale. Even if the read is coming from Foolishness, we don't get any explanation as to why they developed the read they made.
And now, although you agree that Toad doesn't explain, you seem willing to agree anyway-

Maybe I'm confused... whose case are you referring here?

@tehpoofter: What do you think the chances are that Alakaslam is Survivor vs. Mafia vs. VT? Right now I'd guess, like, 70% survivor or traitor / 30% mafia / 0% vt. I guess there's also a chance he is some other 3rd party role.

Are you referring to this post? http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/445571-doctor-who-mafia-2?page=11#215 I guess I could construe that as a case against hopeless, but he votes for thrawn right afterward.
Or are you just talking about this comment as a case???

It's difficult for me to post in the mornings so I apologize for the brevity of this post. But, this is what I was interested in at the end of the day yesterday and it involves raynpelikoneet / kitaman27 who seem to be potential wagons for this afternoon.
raynpelikoneet voted on Hopeless1ider earlier in the game. In response to a question from thrawn, raynpelikoneet seems to suggest kitaman27's case on hopeless1ider sounds fine. I think there are only two posts from kitaman27 that even address hopeless. One barely mentions him (http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/445571-doctor-who-mafia-2?page=18#359) and I do not think it is a case. The other is just a series of questions (http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/445571-doctor-who-mafia-2?page=11#215).
I'd like to ask rayn questions and go back and forth but I am out for a few hours, so in summary I currently think rayn justified his vote on hopeless1ider based on a non-existent case by kitaman27. (he also justified it based on foolishness' read but I can't use that for anything)
I will come back to thread in about 3 hours and read the more recent developments, I haven't given the recent posts fair attention yet and can't until then.

@rayn respond to my concerns please re: kitaman case

if you did already sorry hard to read on phone

I’m back in the thread and I am mostly caught up, I skimmed a little.
I'll give a little more below but to summarize thoughts right now: I don’t feel all that convinced by kitaman27’s case on rayn. But I really dislike rayn’s 100% scumread on kitaman27 following the case, and dislike that rayn seems to promote gumshoe’s scumminess and downgrade Alakaslam’s scumminess for no clear reason.
Currently my vote preference is rayn (feels scum), slam (scum/3p), or gumshoe (lurker). I do not know if rayn is checked out of the thread for real so I will question him below. I'm voting him now, but I am may move back to Slam. I don't like his answers to my questions.
I think gumshoe and alakaslam are “safer” lynches for today. But, if we are going for a 'safe' lynch Alakaslam seems safer, so he'd be my preference over gumshoe. Only potential read I got from gumshoe is that he is maybe hinting at a power role, but he could just as easily be a VT that's roleplaying.
--
Regarding kitaman27’s case on raynpelikoneet: kita raises a few points I want to address: (1) rayn doesn’t follow through on kitaman: I believe rayn likely did not do the research or read your prior game because I think he could have used it to support a town or scum read on you. (2) rayn’s vote on hopeless seems bad : I pretty much agree with this. I don’t feel rayn gave an adequate reason for this. I may be tunneling a little because rayn’s comment on kitaman27’s ‘case’ on hope1ess still feels unexplained when it should be easy to explain. (3) kita sees rayn’s mass claim policy as towny: I feel rayn has probably played enough that he knows how to push an agenda, but I do not feel he pushed the idea in a meaningful way.
rayn’s read on gumshoe

It seems to me that rayn reads gumshoe as more scummy and Alakaslam as less scummy but I do not really get his reasons.

##Vote: raynpelikoneet
@raynpelikoneet: To get me off this wagon (1) adequately explain what "case" kita raised on hopeless and (2) adequately explain how gumshoe seemed to become more scummy and alakaslam became less scummy. You might also have to (3) vote alakaslam or it won't matter anyway.

Gumshoe vs. Slam For people in thread now, why pick gumshoe over slam?
Maybe I'm biased because he picked me ~~~ but it seems to me that Alakaslam is not town, maybe scum, whereas gumshoe is just maybe scum.

It seems unlikely that mafia would have both a town recruiting role and a traitor role in the same game. I suppose a third party traitor that joins the mafia team is a possibility, but I've never seem something like that before.
I do not think traitors are alignment changing, and given the Dr. Who lore as I understand it (cybermen turn other people into cybermen somehow) I feel pretty strongly that mechanic is in the game.

@austinmcc & @kushm4sta can you explain why you would prefer to vote off gumshoe over slam? I do not actually know that is your preference but will take Djoref's word for it for now.
To be frank and direct, I think non-town would prefer to keep a 3rd party role alive as a potential asset later in the game so I am suspicious of this preference. (obviously if slam is actually scum then there are other simple reasons you would prefer he live)

@raynpelikoneet I take your shrink claim as meaning that despite evidence to the contrary you still want to live.
Would you kindly look at the comments at the bottom of my post here, http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/445571-doctor-who-mafia-2?page=44#863. Maybe it's too late to get votes off you, but if you are town maybe your answer will help me read you properly in another game.
@austinmcc I like most of your posts, but I do not really understand your vote on tehpoofter and it doesn't feel to me like you are pushing that lynch at all. I talked about conversions some earlier, if you want to pursue that topic I'm glad to during the teatime/night phase.
I'm still willing to move to slam though I feel fine on rayn since he didn't answer me again.

As rayn has flipped blue I want to know if anyone feels differently about massclaiming as rayn proposed d1. I still feel it is a bad idea but since I know it was coming from someone in town I'd like to hear if anyone has re-evaluated it or feels differently. @kitaman27 I would especially like to hear from you, not just because of you and rayn in the whole 1v1 thing (though that is important) but also because you mentioned it as consistent with rayn's play when you were making your case.
|
@whoever but especially thrawn2112, I'll be around for about an hour if you want to talk, I think my filter is short and I think a fair number of my d1 posts refer to rayn so there may be something you can ask me to get better reads.
|
While waiting I'm going to go through Vivax filter since he was discussed a bit above and see if it gives me reads.
Vivax I already commented on Vivax's post asking hope1ess if he was joking (http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewpost.php?post_id=21088181).
Vivax dislikes that Toad goes 100% on hope1ess on his first post. I'm not sure if Vivax dislikes the certainty or that it was reached so quickly, but it makes me feel he should have dropped a comment on rayn's certainty regarding kitaman27 later in the day.

Gotta read Raines newest stuff still.
I think there is evidence that kita has too much information.
What do you think was he referring to kita?
Did this get answered? If not I would like to see kush's response because I think kitaman27 deserves a deeper look.
I don't feel Vivax takes a stand on rayn vs. kita and ends up with a safety vote on Alakaslam. I don't find the Slam vote terrible (as I said, I wouldn't mind voting Slam) but I don't like that he escaped weighing down one way or the other. If I were to infer from his posts, I felt he was more likely to put his vote on rayn than kita.

On April 01 2014 11:29 thrawn2112 wrote: did rayn's flip have any effect on your reads or how you view D1 in general?
Yes. I think I spent most of my attention d1 on rayn, though I did interact with some other players. My vote ended up on him largely because I felt he didn't or couldn't explain questions I had about his comments.
I don't let other players dictate how I vote so I'm not set on rayn's 1:1 trade with kitaman. However, I am willing to sheep rayn enough that kitaman27 is a focus and leaning scum based on at least some of rayn's comments. Frankly, I don't know rayn's meta enough to say whether he always tries to portray "100% confidence" or if he is honest when he is unsure about his reads. Either way, I'm willing to pursue it.
Other than that, I need to reread hope1ess next, the interactions I gave most attention to involved rayn/kita/hopeless so I think he is my second person to be attentive to. Had rayn flipped scum I would have felt a little better since hope1ess also voted on rayn.
As to D1 in general, I think we should have decided earlier if we were going to go with a policy lynch but I didn't expect that gumshoe wouldn't post so it didn't seem like a realistic concern.
Giving you a short post because you are in thread, I'll write more in a little bit.
