He did his normal spam thing, but it was way over the top. A major characteristic of his scum play in my experience is that he's pretty rarely around when it matters, and his spammy nature was way off from what I perceive as his townie "center" too far towards spam or to far away from it. | ||

I wouldn't say that his activity is the only way to read him and it's subjective anyhow, I basically caught him through POE and that was the best reason I could come up with in Toy Story, he exhibited both behaviors there so I'm going to use the guideline until it no longer works (i.e. he steps up and plays the game). He's a policy lynch because I have no idea what the fuck he is saying 99% of the time. He seems to have the goal of being unreadable in every game he plays and that puts him in my "ok to policy lynch" group because I'd hate to lose to him (again, lol). re: thrawn, how would you suggest I eliminate people from the lynch based on their behavior if not on some basic first post instinct when the game is like 20 minutes in? I've opened lines of communication when in the past things have been not so great between us, unless I recall incorrectly. The last game we played together I wanted to lynch him and he ended up being town, so I'm trying a new approach so I don't immediately put him in a category labeled "people I want to lynch because I hate" Gotta re-read after I get some coffee in me. Only other thought I had for the moment is I didn't immediately want to lynch Koshi which is standing out to me. I think he's more actively participating (rather than posting for what looks like the sake of posting) than in other games I've read/played with him in them. Maybe that's some kind of themed-level-Koshi and I haven't seen a normal ass game Koshi in recent memory? | ||

@OmniEulogy - can you wrap up your thoughts on what makes djag so scummy into one post? I'm sort of seeing it but you talked a hell of a lot about/to Koshi so condense your points for me, please. The metaphor he quoted from the book is basically "if you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem" (if I'm interpreting it right). Is it the association situation, the chest-beating, the out-of-game reference? Seems like a lot of mistakes to be making if he's scum. Like, a fucking train wreck. @Cavalinho - admits he looks scummy, seemingly focuses in on FT for calling him scummy, lol. This thing regarding FT is pretty funny since the game is only like 10 pages long and it's the missing context that makes me think you're just clicking filters looking for an easy target. Need another scum read from you, mate. @mderg - not a single thing he's written comes to mind, so I go look and remember he had a single post. Pretty insightful post, if his claim to not having much time is true. One-liners are a part of the current meta-game so you're going to have to deal with it. Have you come up with any scum reads yet? | ||

Why would you insist on making a giant wall of nothing rather than just say "I don't have any opinion on this guy yet?" It's as if you wanted to be seen as doing things while ultimately accomplishing nothing. I think we're collectively accomplishing nothing. I don't want to speak for FT, but I know it sometimes takes a while for my mind to make connections and realize things before I bring them up and that's not always as soon as I've read the thread. | ||

I said I was inactive, and asking me to talk more is a reasonable thing to ask. 2) FT never even talked to me until I posted my vote on him. OTW was the one who made a read on me. 3) I said that the short case posted on me is, at best, null and silly, due to my three posts having no alignment-indicative information in them whatsoever If you're going to pressure me, at least get the details right. Cripes. I'm not pressuring, I'm trying to have a dialogue. Not every inquiry is calling people scum, lol. It's also possible I'm too tired and crossed names in my mind. I'm thinking of djag? Am I too old for this shit? | ||

Thank fuck we have a replacement, hello vivax please explain why I am on your POE or what you didn't like about me. mderg's main, perhaps only, focus is a vig claim / scumminess of claiming a near-verifable role D1? That's... concerning, he's getting my vote for now. No reason to be pushing to lynch blue claims unless there's a cc. He's even sticking with it despite talking to others and defending his position which, with a tiny bit of critical thought should be an intractable one. ##vote: mderg @FT: Koshi reads town to me only because he's all over the place and active. I'm more familiar with his "go forth and do work for me" town-meta that I think he uses in themed games but I'm not as aware of his regular town-game meta. My distant memory from back when Titanic 1 was a thing was that his scum game was pretty focused, but I'm bad with the memory thing sometimes so if you have something contradictory that would be useful today I'd like to see that. On April 17 2014 04:32 FirmTofu wrote: I don't like Koshi's insistence on pushing kush. Kush has a decent past few pages and his pressure of Cavalinho seems genuine. Although Kush brings up some good points on Cavalinho, I'm not entirely convinced. Cavalinho looks like he doesn't understand that people sometimes give out null reads in order to promote discussion on a player. Fundamentally, he doesn't understand the purpose of my post: to explain to Koshi why Dja was not the appropriate use of our time in the thread. @kush+Koshi Tell me what you think of OmniEulogy so far. I'm curious to hear your thoughts. | ||

On April 17 2014 05:15 mderg wrote: Did you even read my posts? The claim is the one thing that makes Skan look less scummy. The claim was never my focus, it was everything besides that. I´m also having a hard time understanding the rest of the paragraph about me. Would it be possible to rephrase that? Any potential vigilante situation is self-solving. Either a shot is called and made, called a missed, not called and claimed later, or never called but the vigilante dies. Giving any amount of effort towards discussing how much you do or don't believe it and arguing about it or using it to defend someone before any of those events happen is ridiculous. So to say it another way; having a read on a player solely for their power claim is ridiculous because we know that mafia can fake claim, we know that a power role who claims early can get their role blocked, they can be simply shot, and other corner cases where it leads into some kind of big play (which I would discount but in the interests of trying to be thorough I add it here). So if he's actually blue then you pushing for his lynch is pointless endeavour for anyone thinking with a town mindset. With so few potential power roles in a normal game (something you may not be aware of). You can just accept for one day that he's got something useful to contribute outside of his lack of conversational contribution and focus on real lynch candidate possibilities instead until it can be established he's lying or he is caught in a sure-fire situation where he knows something that he shouldn't. That is why I think your vote is wasted and you've given him the possibility of being town for his role but you refuse to accept what that means for the overarching scheme of the game when you pursue him as a potential lynch candidate. | ||
