He literally posts close to nothing

Glowingbear have not posted his long wall of read yet, be patient.

It's not inherently scummy, it's null. If he posts close to nothing d1 I would expect maybe one big post with reads and that's it for d1. I've gotten as much. It doesn't mean anything. More to the point, you didn't explain how it's scummy in the post I was describing. You just said he doesn't say anything, and then after I mentioned it, you added in that it's inherently scummy.

And you didn't explain anything to do with me, just some handwavey stuff about reading the thread.

And I know he hasn't posted it yet, I'm saying that your responses aren't making sense to me. I'm not really concerned with your slot right now beyond talking to you right now, though.

Exo is scummy because he's producing more content than usual under the watch of his senior?

Just woke up and caught up with thread....mostly. idk why slam thew such a big fit, but I really didn't appreciate some of what he posted.

Game wise I'm not sure enough about his alignment to really want to lynch him, but I have enough questions about him that I'd be willing to lynch him so that we don't have to deal with that kind of shit in the future. The spam posting of images like that isn't cool with me.

But can't because it will destroy the game for their hydra

I like lynching Team WeDemandALawyer much more than lynching Team Cabernet Sauvignon.
I didn´t like GlowingBears contribution regarding the kenpachi rule. It was actually saying very little besides that it shouldn´t be discussed much. Seemed like a political type of post without any conclusion.

Why do I think it's secondary: a scum can fake claim vt just so he can get townie to accuse him and get mislynched. More than that, a vt can simply try to pressure someone who claimed vt. Why not?

-WeDemandALawyer: Haru and Glowingbear


Haru´s defense of GlowingBear also didn´t really help. While I don´t think that defending your partner is alignment indicative in any way it was unclear for me what they discussed about the kenpachi rule in their quicktopic.

What I don´t like about Haru are his townreads for questionable reasons. "palmer is confirmed town for saying he is confirmed town" just makes no sense. I as townie do not townread others for saying that they are town (Robik ).
I also don´t understand why he townread Robik here

Do you play here on TL often?

What is your take on the game so far?

I've never played on TL, only irl and some facebook based games. I'm familiar with how mafia works.

As for the game so far, I don't really see any information to cast more than suspicion on anyone.

Fun question
What merits casting more than suspicion then
And who is your suspicion cast upon

So I go to sleep
and I wake up
and this question still isn't answered... Stratiform pls

--

Robik can you tell me what bunnies/poof have done that's scummy other than "they disagree with each other"? Alternately can you explain why disagreeing with your teammate is alignment indicative?

I don't know. The only thing that really bothers me strongly is that they have differing reads based off of my previous experience with playing as a hydra and the two heads expressing differing reads -- it also happened in my first game with rayn and mocsta expressing different reads. So both hydras that I've played with that were mafia had different reads. The one hydra that I played with that had the same reads (mattisfoolish) had the same reads.

it also MINORLY bothers me that bunnies is trying to push scum on me because I'm town, so that's pushing an anti-town agenda


I was waiting for you to say that robik

Top town

Nothing in that Robik post stands out as town to me. There´s also no explanation for that read, so I see it as buddying with Robik. We all know that being on Robik´s good side makes things much easier. I´d say it was a calculated move.

It´s also difficult to understand how they´re individually reading other players here. After these posts I have no idea how Haru is reading Robik and Exo anymore. While GlowingBear is supposedly scumreading them.

Few things I noted, mebbe they're useful or will be, maybe not. With slam/sqrt, check how easy the wagon is, I don't see any pushback for the lynch. I don't really get this weird martyring behaviour from a team of 2, you'd expect at least one of them to prop up the other. I don't know what that means. They're both unstable? Or it's a ploy? ?? I'm not used to Slam insulting the thread like this. That doesn't make me feel good. I'm tentatively ok with this lynch but with reservations I guess.

Stratiform doesn't look quite so bad. Not sure about Palmar. Not gonna be around to judge him on today's play so meh.

Poofter didn't bother playing. Many scumpoints. I've felt ok about bunnies, but Poofter dragging her down. Probably not lynch but I don't trust.

Right now I like Haru/Glowing for mafia most.

I have a stronger hunch on sqrt/alakaslam, as a lot of people were saying here.

Why these guys? Because my way of scumhunting is going through passivity and too much friendly behavior. Going against people there were being quite and being friendly was my best bet on my first game and when I did that most of my readings got the right guys.

I had suspicions on you, which doesn't mean you're necessarily suspicious of overly friendly behavior or passivity... that's why I'll filter dive you, so I can get a better view of what gave me the feeling that you were suspicious.

My main scumhunting is attacking passivity/friendly behavior. It's not may only scumhunting method.

Throws in random names (Robik, ExO, Eden) and a couple of times states that he scumhunts through passivity and friendly behaviour. These 3 names don't make much (any?) sense in this context. Robik the most abrasive of them all, Eden has been active, ExO's argued his corner firmly enough. His description of what he's looking for -> these 3 names doesn't seem natural to me. He brings up Robik as suspicious again in a later post but again never explains why, again it is the opposite of what he's looking for in mafia.
sqrt/Slam may have been passive to some extent maybe? They've been quite prickly too. There seems to be a whole bunch of other targets that conform to his self-professed view.

Basically I find the 3 names he throws in, together with his self-styled description of scumhunting, together with how he introduced sqrt/slam as scummy after that, very suspicious indeed. My best bet for mafia right now.


Really?

From what I read, robik is playing weird at first. He isn't coming into the thread and turning it into a shitstorm. This is acceptable at first since he noted his intent to let exo learn. Also, his strong will to kill anyone who thinks he is scum (town|robik does this) makes me think he is scum. But glowingbear probably doesn't meta read him and thus it is also acceptable for glowingbear to have a suspicion on him. Glowingbear isn't just throwing out names. We had discussed about these people in the qt and my opinions differs from glowing's in these regards. Thus, glowingbear isnt just writing them off as scum as I have a conflicting opinion.
Exo doesn't post jackshit d1 as town btw.
eden doesn't make sense? Read the thread bro
Sqrt/slam IS passive. Their posts were mostly replies and shit.
So glowingbear is scum for saying he wants to scumhunt through passivity, but others who aren't doing shit isn't suspicious? (LIKE MDERG)

Ok I think we have enough posts to make a case. When I get home, I'll reach my computer and do what I do best: filter diving. Then I'm going to bring cases. Expect a big post in around 4 hours since now.

Before I go, I must also say that focusing "townhunting" is worse than "scum hunting" in my opinion, because it gets easier to a scum to blend in your town circle and doesn't help to do a good lynch on day1, as you are going to choose who to lynch based on someone you just don't have a strong town read instead of lynching someone you have a strong scumread.

Ok, I've read enough.
I really can't read more right now, I tried to analyze every single page and it seems my head can't absorb that much information. I started to write a summary on what was going on but I've got no more energy to do. It's incomplete, but I will leave it here in case someone finds it useful:

Half-ass summary:
+ Show Spoiler +

A) Game started with Eden claiming VT. Tehpoofter questioned it (indirectly btw). Got a wagon on him because of Kenpachi Rule policy. Bunnies and Eden started a discussion about the kenpachi rule and about Bunnies writing nonsense.
B) Robik posted about getting on the backseat while ExO would take the main point of his team. Got wagoned when Eden decided that this and Robik's vt claim was suspicious.
C) Rayn accused Eden's and tehpoofter's posts of being the worst of the thread. It can be viewed at page 22 as quoted by Ede. This is the game while on page 22.
D) marv/mderg starts posting at page 23 right after Exo express his will to hear about them.
E) Eden is questioned by marv and palmer for his vt claim. Eden insists in his vt claim. This is around page 24.
F) Palmar scumreads my posts because he thinks it was filled with fluff and unhelpful, then voted on me and Haru. Page 26.
G) Rayn decides to vote on me and Haru assuming that Haru was writing useless stuff when defending Palmar's push on me. 26-27
H) Robik posted and people got on him again, inquiring about his back seat attitude and his vt claim.
I) 32 - 36: sqrt starts giving reads on everybody, mostly null or town reads, except for Palmar because... he didn't confirm? o.O. People start to pressure him.


So, for what I read until now, I have three main targets I want to read more: ExO, Robik and Eden. I'll filter dive them tomorrow, as I didn't have energy enough even to read through 50 long pages.
I have a stronger hunch on sqrt/alakaslam, as a lot of people were saying here.

Why these guys? Because my way of scumhunting is going through passivity and too much friendly behavior. Going against people there were being quite and being friendly was my best bet on my first game and when I did that most of my readings got the right guys.

I see this signals on sqrt's posts, mostly. Check out these quotes:

Hello guys, it's my second game here.
It seems that there is a ruckus going on already. Can someone explain me what Is the Kenpachi rule?

Also, I'll be signing every post of mine with a bolded "-WeDemandALawyer: Haru and GlowingBear" so it gets easier to identify the team.

First post that catches my eye. This team is leaning town. First team to get a signature.

The last time I remember someone saying that he was confirmed townie he was actually scum.

the last time I had a grilled cheese sandwich for dinner I got laid by a hot Russian chick later that night

Eden is town.
Last time I played with Eden, he was mafia, and he wasn't joking around like this. He came down hard on people.

Also this is from my notes regarding my earlier post:

I felt like Eden is running out of arguments after the Kenpachi gambit. After the stuff he said does not sell to people he soft-calls out poofer for something really awful.

Also poofer's post was bad because this is not a normal hydra game and reading two people as one is a bad strategy, if someone is scummy they are likely to be scum. It does not matter how townie the other half looks.

Let's see if Palmar is paying attention to the game. He should most likely say these things in case he is town.

Why do I think it's secondary: a scum can fake claim vt just so he can get townie to accuse him and get mislynched. More than that, a vt can simply try to pressure someone who claimed vt. Why not?

-WeDemandALawyer: Haru and GlowingBear


I like the summary of his opinion on the issue. "Meh".


1) Being excited =\= spamming. More than that, I wasn't posting anymore because I was sleeping. Different time zones hooray. I'm excited and I'm reading through everything but if you think not giving a opinion on someone is scummy, I'll say that giving free useless opinions on everyone is scummy. As I didn't know at the time what the Kenpachi rule was and as I said we needed more game to have a primary argument, I think it's pretty reasonable to just point out useless effort and wait to have more food to make a case, probably around midday.

2)Pointint out that I didn't know exactly what was happening because I didn't know the meaning of Kenpachi rule. How can I understand a fight if I can not understand the language?
I think the team name bolding is very good so we can give a better analysis while diving through the topic.

3) See point 1. Also, I don't think it was unnecessary post as we were wasting breath on a useless subject by the moment, and I find scummy people who just spam things about useless objects, so town loses time and focus. It has already stopped, well, yes, but to the point you would say that I pratically necrobumped it? Check the post times or the distance between my post and the last "Kenpachi rule" post. It's less than a page.
More: why would I bring the discussion back just to say "let's not discuss this"? If it was a misleading topic and I were scum, shouldn't I just keep the topic going on saying something like "oh we have to use this policy because of X"?

Is a good post. Decent logic here.

Overall, I'm on the fence with these guys.

Haru, a question for you.

Robik can you tell me what bunnies/poof have done that's scummy other than "they disagree with each other"? Alternately can you explain why disagreeing with your teammate is alignment indicative?

I don't know. The only thing that really bothers me strongly is that they have differing reads based off of my previous experience with playing as a hydra and the two heads expressing differing reads -- it also happened in my first game with rayn and mocsta expressing different reads. So both hydras that I've played with that were mafia had different reads. The one hydra that I played with that had the same reads (mattisfoolish) had the same reads.

it also MINORLY bothers me that bunnies is trying to push scum on me because I'm town, so that's pushing an anti-town agenda

I've bolded most of his reads. He looks like he does not want to "get into the battlefield", mostly giving free townreads to people. What mostly bothers me: just one-liners.
He made a push on Palmar, though:

Howerever, there is no strong argument to justify a lynch, as there is no strong argument to justify his townreads.

If you check his filters, you will find tiny posts with little information and reasoning behind. It just looks like he is trying to look like he is contributing, but not contributing at all.

But if he is scum, I'd better check Alakaslam also, because they are a team. If you filter dive him, you're going to find posts with no much useful information. Like this one:

So, although I'm not sure if alakaslam is not contributing more because he, at the time, didn't have enough food on anybody, and although he doesn't have an overly friendly behavior like sqrt, this lack of contribution fits sqrt's attitude until now.

Slam gotta do better to change my vote.



GlowingBear gives a scumread on Team Cabernet Sauvignon, the main point being that sqrt is not giving strong reads. (Note: at this point Team Cabernet Sauvignon is already under heavy pressure) So you can´t call this "going out on the battlefield". (complete case spoilered above)


Overall they look pretty bad. There´s not that much behind their posts and the townreads feel like they´re given for free while the scumreads are OMGUS on rayn which is easy to get out of because it´s "just" OMGUS and an easy scumread on Team Cabernet Sauvignon (mostly sqrt).

Haru´s defense of GlowingBear also didn´t really help. While I don´t think that defending your partner is alignment indicative in any way it was unclear for me what they discussed about the kenpachi rule in their quicktopic.

What I don´t like about Haru are his townreads for questionable reasons. "palmer is confirmed town for saying he is confirmed town" just makes no sense. I as townie do not townread others for saying that they are town (Robik ).
I also don´t understand why he townread Robik here

Nothing in that Robik post stands out as town to me. There´s also no explanation for that read, so I see it as buddying with Robik. We all know that being on Robik´s good side makes things much easier. I´d say it was a calculated move.

It´s also difficult to understand how they´re individually reading other players here. After these posts I have no idea how Haru is reading Robik and Exo anymore. While GlowingBear is supposedly scumreading them.

Few things I noted, mebbe they're useful or will be, maybe not. With slam/sqrt, check how easy the wagon is, I don't see any pushback for the lynch. I don't really get this weird martyring behaviour from a team of 2, you'd expect at least one of them to prop up the other. I don't know what that means. They're both unstable? Or it's a ploy? ?? I'm not used to Slam insulting the thread like this. That doesn't make me feel good. I'm tentatively ok with this lynch but with reservations I guess.

Stratiform doesn't look quite so bad. Not sure about Palmar. Not gonna be around to judge him on today's play so meh.

Poofter didn't bother playing. Many scumpoints. I've felt ok about bunnies, but Poofter dragging her down. Probably not lynch but I don't trust.

I have a stronger hunch on sqrt/alakaslam, as a lot of people were saying here.

Why these guys? Because my way of scumhunting is going through passivity and too much friendly behavior. Going against people there were being quite and being friendly was my best bet on my first game and when I did that most of my readings got the right guys.

I had suspicions on you, which doesn't mean you're necessarily suspicious of overly friendly behavior or passivity... that's why I'll filter dive you, so I can get a better view of what gave me the feeling that you were suspicious.

My main scumhunting is attacking passivity/friendly behavior. It's not may only scumhunting method.

Throws in random names (Robik, ExO, Eden) and a couple of times states that he scumhunts through passivity and friendly behaviour. These 3 names don't make much (any?) sense in this context. Robik the most abrasive of them all, Eden has been active, ExO's argued his corner firmly enough. His description of what he's looking for -> these 3 names doesn't seem natural to me. He brings up Robik as suspicious again in a later post but again never explains why, again it is the opposite of what he's looking for in mafia.
sqrt/Slam may have been passive to some extent maybe? They've been quite prickly too. There seems to be a whole bunch of other targets that conform to his self-professed view.

Basically I find the 3 names he throws in, together with his self-styled description of scumhunting, together with how he introduced sqrt/slam as scummy after that, very suspicious indeed. My best bet for mafia right now.


Really?

From what I read, robik is playing weird at first. He isn't coming into the thread and turning it into a shitstorm. This is acceptable at first since he noted his intent to let exo learn. Also, his strong will to kill anyone who thinks he is scum (town|robik does this) makes me think he is scum. But glowingbear probably doesn't meta read him and thus it is also acceptable for glowingbear to have a suspicion on him. Glowingbear isn't just throwing out names. We had discussed about these people in the qt and my opinions differs from glowing's in these regards. Thus, glowingbear isnt just writing them off as scum as I have a conflicting opinion.
Exo doesn't post jackshit d1 as town btw.
eden doesn't make sense? Read the thread bro
Sqrt/slam IS passive. Their posts were mostly replies and shit.
So glowingbear is scum for saying he wants to scumhunt through passivity, but others who aren't doing shit isn't suspicious? (LIKE MDERG)

Before I go, I must also say that focusing "townhunting" is worse than "scum hunting" in my opinion, because it gets easier to a scum to blend in your town circle and doesn't help to do a good lynch on day1, as you are going to choose who to lynch based on someone you just don't have a strong town read instead of lynching someone you have a strong scumread.

Half-ass summary:
+ Show Spoiler +

A) Game started with Eden claiming VT. Tehpoofter questioned it (indirectly btw). Got a wagon on him because of Kenpachi Rule policy. Bunnies and Eden started a discussion about the kenpachi rule and about Bunnies writing nonsense.
B) Robik posted about getting on the backseat while ExO would take the main point of his team. Got wagoned when Eden decided that this and Robik's vt claim was suspicious.
C) Rayn accused Eden's and tehpoofter's posts of being the worst of the thread. It can be viewed at page 22 as quoted by Ede. This is the game while on page 22.
D) marv/mderg starts posting at page 23 right after Exo express his will to hear about them.
E) Eden is questioned by marv and palmer for his vt claim. Eden insists in his vt claim. This is around page 24.
F) Palmar scumreads my posts because he thinks it was filled with fluff and unhelpful, then voted on me and Haru. Page 26.
G) Rayn decides to vote on me and Haru assuming that Haru was writing useless stuff when defending Palmar's push on me. 26-27
H) Robik posted and people got on him again, inquiring about his back seat attitude and his vt claim.
I) 32 - 36: sqrt starts giving reads on everybody, mostly null or town reads, except for Palmar because... he didn't confirm? o.O. People start to pressure him.


So, for what I read until now, I have three main targets I want to read more: ExO, Robik and Eden. I'll filter dive them tomorrow, as I didn't have energy enough even to read through 50 long pages.
I have a stronger hunch on sqrt/alakaslam, as a lot of people were saying here.

Why these guys? Because my way of scumhunting is going through passivity and too much friendly behavior. Going against people there were being quite and being friendly was my best bet on my first game and when I did that most of my readings got the right guys.

Also poofer's post was bad because this is not a normal hydra game and reading two people as one is a bad strategy, if someone is scummy they are likely to be scum. It does not matter how townie the other half looks.

Let's see if Palmar is paying attention to the game. He should most likely say these things in case he is town.

Robik can you tell me what bunnies/poof have done that's scummy other than "they disagree with each other"? Alternately can you explain why disagreeing with your teammate is alignment indicative?

I don't know. The only thing that really bothers me strongly is that they have differing reads based off of my previous experience with playing as a hydra and the two heads expressing differing reads -- it also happened in my first game with rayn and mocsta expressing different reads. So both hydras that I've played with that were mafia had different reads. The one hydra that I played with that had the same reads (mattisfoolish) had the same reads.

it also MINORLY bothers me that bunnies is trying to push scum on me because I'm town, so that's pushing an anti-town agenda

Bunnies isn't as helpful as in other games, to the best of my memory. She's not questioning anything, not pushing people, I don't like it.
But I don't think we should lynch them because you usually don't lynch the most outspoken player, even if they're not posting all that useful stuff.

Bunnies, any particular reason for not scumhunting?

I've bolded most of his reads. He looks like he does not want to "get into the battlefield", mostly giving free townreads to people. What mostly bothers me: just one-liners.
He made a push on Palmar, though:

Howerever, there is no strong argument to justify a lynch, as there is no strong argument to justify his townreads.

If you check his filters, you will find tiny posts with little information and reasoning behind. It just looks like he is trying to look like he is contributing, but not contributing at all.

But if he is scum, I'd better check Alakaslam also, because they are a team. If you filter dive him, you're going to find posts with no much useful information. Like this one:

So, although I'm not sure if alakaslam is not contributing more because he, at the time, didn't have enough food on anybody, and although he doesn't have an overly friendly behavior like sqrt, this lack of contribution fits sqrt's attitude until now.

Slam gotta do better to change my vote.



GlowingBear gives a scumread on Team Cabernet Sauvignon, the main point being that sqrt is not giving strong reads. (Note: at this point Team Cabernet Sauvignon is already under heavy pressure) So you can´t call this "going out on the battlefield". (complete case spoilered above)


Overall they look pretty bad. There´s not that much behind their posts and the townreads feel like they´re given for free while the scumreads are OMGUS on rayn which is easy to get out of because it´s "just" OMGUS and an easy scumread on Team Cabernet Sauvignon (mostly sqrt).

##vote Team WeDemandALawyer

I like your GlowingBear part of our argument, but your Haru section is lacking a little. You mainly focus on his townreads, one of which is for a sarcastic reason.

I'd also like to point out that Haru townreads Robik for calling out Poofter/Bunnies for having different opinions, where he himself has a different opinion from his partner.

Why do I think it's secondary: a scum can fake claim vt just so he can get townie to accuse him and get mislynched. More than that, a vt can simply try to pressure someone who claimed vt. Why not?

-WeDemandALawyer: Haru and Glowingbear


Haru´s defense of GlowingBear also didn´t really help. While I don´t think that defending your partner is alignment indicative in any way it was unclear for me what they discussed about the kenpachi rule in their quicktopic.

What I don´t like about Haru are his townreads for questionable reasons. "palmer is confirmed town for saying he is confirmed town" just makes no sense. I as townie do not townread others for saying that they are town (Robik ).
I also don´t understand why he townread Robik here

Nothing in that Robik post stands out as town to me. There´s also no explanation for that read, so I see it as buddying with Robik. We all know that being on Robik´s good side makes things much easier. I´d say it was a calculated move.

It´s also difficult to understand how they´re individually reading other players here. After these posts I have no idea how Haru is reading Robik and Exo anymore. While GlowingBear is supposedly scumreading them.

Few things I noted, mebbe they're useful or will be, maybe not. With slam/sqrt, check how easy the wagon is, I don't see any pushback for the lynch. I don't really get this weird martyring behaviour from a team of 2, you'd expect at least one of them to prop up the other. I don't know what that means. They're both unstable? Or it's a ploy? ?? I'm not used to Slam insulting the thread like this. That doesn't make me feel good. I'm tentatively ok with this lynch but with reservations I guess.

Stratiform doesn't look quite so bad. Not sure about Palmar. Not gonna be around to judge him on today's play so meh.

Poofter didn't bother playing. Many scumpoints. I've felt ok about bunnies, but Poofter dragging her down. Probably not lynch but I don't trust.

Right now I like Haru/Glowing for mafia most.

Why these guys? Because my way of scumhunting is going through passivity and too much friendly behavior. Going against people there were being quite and being friendly was my best bet on my first game and when I did that most of my readings got the right guys.

I had suspicions on you, which doesn't mean you're necessarily suspicious of overly friendly behavior or passivity... that's why I'll filter dive you, so I can get a better view of what gave me the feeling that you were suspicious.

My main scumhunting is attacking passivity/friendly behavior. It's not may only scumhunting method.

Throws in random names (Robik, ExO, Eden) and a couple of times states that he scumhunts through passivity and friendly behaviour. These 3 names don't make much (any?) sense in this context. Robik the most abrasive of them all, Eden has been active, ExO's argued his corner firmly enough. His description of what he's looking for -> these 3 names doesn't seem natural to me. He brings up Robik as suspicious again in a later post but again never explains why, again it is the opposite of what he's looking for in mafia.
sqrt/Slam may have been passive to some extent maybe? They've been quite prickly too. There seems to be a whole bunch of other targets that conform to his self-professed view.

Basically I find the 3 names he throws in, together with his self-styled description of scumhunting, together with how he introduced sqrt/slam as scummy after that, very suspicious indeed. My best bet for mafia right now.


Really?

From what I read, robik is playing weird at first. He isn't coming into the thread and turning it into a shitstorm. This is acceptable at first since he noted his intent to let exo learn. Also, his strong will to kill anyone who thinks he is scum (town|robik does this) makes me think he is scum. But glowingbear probably doesn't meta read him and thus it is also acceptable for glowingbear to have a suspicion on him. Glowingbear isn't just throwing out names. We had discussed about these people in the qt and my opinions differs from glowing's in these regards. Thus, glowingbear isnt just writing them off as scum as I have a conflicting opinion.
Exo doesn't post jackshit d1 as town btw.
eden doesn't make sense? Read the thread bro
Sqrt/slam IS passive. Their posts were mostly replies and shit.
So glowingbear is scum for saying he wants to scumhunt through passivity, but others who aren't doing shit isn't suspicious? (LIKE MDERG)

Before I go, I must also say that focusing "townhunting" is worse than "scum hunting" in my opinion, because it gets easier to a scum to blend in your town circle and doesn't help to do a good lynch on day1, as you are going to choose who to lynch based on someone you just don't have a strong town read instead of lynching someone you have a strong scumread.

Half-ass summary:
+ Show Spoiler +

A) Game started with Eden claiming VT. Tehpoofter questioned it (indirectly btw). Got a wagon on him because of Kenpachi Rule policy. Bunnies and Eden started a discussion about the kenpachi rule and about Bunnies writing nonsense.
B) Robik posted about getting on the backseat while ExO would take the main point of his team. Got wagoned when Eden decided that this and Robik's vt claim was suspicious.
C) Rayn accused Eden's and tehpoofter's posts of being the worst of the thread. It can be viewed at page 22 as quoted by Ede. This is the game while on page 22.
D) marv/mderg starts posting at page 23 right after Exo express his will to hear about them.
E) Eden is questioned by marv and palmer for his vt claim. Eden insists in his vt claim. This is around page 24.
F) Palmar scumreads my posts because he thinks it was filled with fluff and unhelpful, then voted on me and Haru. Page 26.
G) Rayn decides to vote on me and Haru assuming that Haru was writing useless stuff when defending Palmar's push on me. 26-27
H) Robik posted and people got on him again, inquiring about his back seat attitude and his vt claim.
I) 32 - 36: sqrt starts giving reads on everybody, mostly null or town reads, except for Palmar because... he didn't confirm? o.O. People start to pressure him.


So, for what I read until now, I have three main targets I want to read more: ExO, Robik and Eden. I'll filter dive them tomorrow, as I didn't have energy enough even to read through 50 long pages.
I have a stronger hunch on sqrt/alakaslam, as a lot of people were saying here.

Why these guys? Because my way of scumhunting is going through passivity and too much friendly behavior. Going against people there were being quite and being friendly was my best bet on my first game and when I did that most of my readings got the right guys.

I see this signals on sqrt's posts, mostly. Check out these quotes:

Also poofer's post was bad because this is not a normal hydra game and reading two people as one is a bad strategy, if someone is scummy they are likely to be scum. It does not matter how townie the other half looks.

Let's see if Palmar is paying attention to the game. He should most likely say these things in case he is town.

I like the summary of his opinion on the issue. "Meh".


1) Being excited =\= spamming. More than that, I wasn't posting anymore because I was sleeping. Different time zones hooray. I'm excited and I'm reading through everything but if you think not giving a opinion on someone is scummy, I'll say that giving free useless opinions on everyone is scummy. As I didn't know at the time what the Kenpachi rule was and as I said we needed more game to have a primary argument, I think it's pretty reasonable to just point out useless effort and wait to have more food to make a case, probably around midday.

2)Pointint out that I didn't know exactly what was happening because I didn't know the meaning of Kenpachi rule. How can I understand a fight if I can not understand the language?
I think the team name bolding is very good so we can give a better analysis while diving through the topic.

3) See point 1. Also, I don't think it was unnecessary post as we were wasting breath on a useless subject by the moment, and I find scummy people who just spam things about useless objects, so town loses time and focus. It has already stopped, well, yes, but to the point you would say that I pratically necrobumped it? Check the post times or the distance between my post and the last "Kenpachi rule" post. It's less than a page.
More: why would I bring the discussion back just to say "let's not discuss this"? If it was a misleading topic and I were scum, shouldn't I just keep the topic going on saying something like "oh we have to use this policy because of X"?

Is a good post. Decent logic here.

Overall, I'm on the fence with these guys.

Haru, a question for you.

GlowingBear gives a scumread on Team Cabernet Sauvignon, the main point being that sqrt is not giving strong reads. (Note: at this point Team Cabernet Sauvignon is already under heavy pressure) So you can´t call this "going out on the battlefield". (complete case spoilered above)


Overall they look pretty bad. There´s not that much behind their posts and the townreads feel like they´re given for free while the scumreads are OMGUS on rayn which is easy to get out of because it´s "just" OMGUS and an easy scumread on Team Cabernet Sauvignon (mostly sqrt).

I like your GlowingBear part of our argument, but your Haru section is lacking a little. You mainly focus on his townreads, one of which is for a sarcastic reason.

I'd also like to point out that Haru townreads Robik for calling out Poofter/Bunnies for having different opinions, where he himself has a different opinion from his partner.

I didn´t see any sarcasm but sarcasm is difficult to detect on the internet, so I´ll concede that point.

I don´t think that calling out Poofter/bunnies was townie in that case, though. Something like that is about the first thing I´d think about as scum.

That reminds me of something, Robik never gave an answer to this question.

Do you still think bunnies and poof are scummy for having different reads or something?

Posting gifs is fine. Repetitively posting the same gif is exceptionally annoying. Posting a page and a half of nothing but gifs is not ok in any circumstance. Keep your gifs and images at least somewhat funny and on topic or face my wrath. This is the last general warning. Should gif abuse continue, Kita and I will consider a 24-48 hour mandatory silence for the offending head, removing the offending head and removing the offending team.

Why do I think it's secondary: a scum can fake claim vt just so he can get townie to accuse him and get mislynched. More than that, a vt can simply try to pressure someone who claimed vt. Why not?

-WeDemandALawyer: Haru and Glowingbear


Haru´s defense of GlowingBear also didn´t really help. While I don´t think that defending your partner is alignment indicative in any way it was unclear for me what they discussed about the kenpachi rule in their quicktopic.

What I don´t like about Haru are his townreads for questionable reasons. "palmer is confirmed town for saying he is confirmed town" just makes no sense. I as townie do not townread others for saying that they are town (Robik ).
I also don´t understand why he townread Robik here

Robik can you tell me what bunnies/poof have done that's scummy other than "they disagree with each other"? Alternately can you explain why disagreeing with your teammate is alignment indicative?

I don't know. The only thing that really bothers me strongly is that they have differing reads based off of my previous experience with playing as a hydra and the two heads expressing differing reads -- it also happened in my first game with rayn and mocsta expressing different reads. So both hydras that I've played with that were mafia had different reads. The one hydra that I played with that had the same reads (mattisfoolish) had the same reads.

it also MINORLY bothers me that bunnies is trying to push scum on me because I'm town, so that's pushing an anti-town agenda


I was waiting for you to say that robik

Top town

Nothing in that Robik post stands out as town to me. There´s also no explanation for that read, so I see it as buddying with Robik. We all know that being on Robik´s good side makes things much easier. I´d say it was a calculated move.

It´s also difficult to understand how they´re individually reading other players here. After these posts I have no idea how Haru is reading Robik and Exo anymore. While GlowingBear is supposedly scumreading them.

Few things I noted, mebbe they're useful or will be, maybe not. With slam/sqrt, check how easy the wagon is, I don't see any pushback for the lynch. I don't really get this weird martyring behaviour from a team of 2, you'd expect at least one of them to prop up the other. I don't know what that means. They're both unstable? Or it's a ploy? ?? I'm not used to Slam insulting the thread like this. That doesn't make me feel good. I'm tentatively ok with this lynch but with reservations I guess.

Stratiform doesn't look quite so bad. Not sure about Palmar. Not gonna be around to judge him on today's play so meh.

Poofter didn't bother playing. Many scumpoints. I've felt ok about bunnies, but Poofter dragging her down. Probably not lynch but I don't trust.

Right now I like Haru/Glowing for mafia most.

Why these guys? Because my way of scumhunting is going through passivity and too much friendly behavior. Going against people there were being quite and being friendly was my best bet on my first game and when I did that most of my readings got the right guys.

I had suspicions on you, which doesn't mean you're necessarily suspicious of overly friendly behavior or passivity... that's why I'll filter dive you, so I can get a better view of what gave me the feeling that you were suspicious.

My main scumhunting is attacking passivity/friendly behavior. It's not may only scumhunting method.

Throws in random names (Robik, ExO, Eden) and a couple of times states that he scumhunts through passivity and friendly behaviour. These 3 names don't make much (any?) sense in this context. Robik the most abrasive of them all, Eden has been active, ExO's argued his corner firmly enough. His description of what he's looking for -> these 3 names doesn't seem natural to me. He brings up Robik as suspicious again in a later post but again never explains why, again it is the opposite of what he's looking for in mafia.
sqrt/Slam may have been passive to some extent maybe? They've been quite prickly too. There seems to be a whole bunch of other targets that conform to his self-professed view.

Basically I find the 3 names he throws in, together with his self-styled description of scumhunting, together with how he introduced sqrt/slam as scummy after that, very suspicious indeed. My best bet for mafia right now.


Really?

From what I read, robik is playing weird at first. He isn't coming into the thread and turning it into a shitstorm. This is acceptable at first since he noted his intent to let exo learn. Also, his strong will to kill anyone who thinks he is scum (town|robik does this) makes me think he is scum. But glowingbear probably doesn't meta read him and thus it is also acceptable for glowingbear to have a suspicion on him. Glowingbear isn't just throwing out names. We had discussed about these people in the qt and my opinions differs from glowing's in these regards. Thus, glowingbear isnt just writing them off as scum as I have a conflicting opinion.
Exo doesn't post jackshit d1 as town btw.
eden doesn't make sense? Read the thread bro
Sqrt/slam IS passive. Their posts were mostly replies and shit.
So glowingbear is scum for saying he wants to scumhunt through passivity, but others who aren't doing shit isn't suspicious? (LIKE MDERG)

Before I go, I must also say that focusing "townhunting" is worse than "scum hunting" in my opinion, because it gets easier to a scum to blend in your town circle and doesn't help to do a good lynch on day1, as you are going to choose who to lynch based on someone you just don't have a strong town read instead of lynching someone you have a strong scumread.

I really can't read more right now, I tried to analyze every single page and it seems my head can't absorb that much information. I started to write a summary on what was going on but I've got no more energy to do. It's incomplete, but I will leave it here in case someone finds it useful:

Half-ass summary:
+ Show Spoiler +

A) Game started with Eden claiming VT. Tehpoofter questioned it (indirectly btw). Got a wagon on him because of Kenpachi Rule policy. Bunnies and Eden started a discussion about the kenpachi rule and about Bunnies writing nonsense.
B) Robik posted about getting on the backseat while ExO would take the main point of his team. Got wagoned when Eden decided that this and Robik's vt claim was suspicious.
C) Rayn accused Eden's and tehpoofter's posts of being the worst of the thread. It can be viewed at page 22 as quoted by Ede. This is the game while on page 22.
D) marv/mderg starts posting at page 23 right after Exo express his will to hear about them.
E) Eden is questioned by marv and palmer for his vt claim. Eden insists in his vt claim. This is around page 24.
F) Palmar scumreads my posts because he thinks it was filled with fluff and unhelpful, then voted on me and Haru. Page 26.
G) Rayn decides to vote on me and Haru assuming that Haru was writing useless stuff when defending Palmar's push on me. 26-27
H) Robik posted and people got on him again, inquiring about his back seat attitude and his vt claim.
I) 32 - 36: sqrt starts giving reads on everybody, mostly null or town reads, except for Palmar because... he didn't confirm? o.O. People start to pressure him.


So, for what I read until now, I have three main targets I want to read more: ExO, Robik and Eden. I'll filter dive them tomorrow, as I didn't have energy enough even to read through 50 long pages.
I have a stronger hunch on sqrt/alakaslam, as a lot of people were saying here.

Why these guys? Because my way of scumhunting is going through passivity and too much friendly behavior. Going against people there were being quite and being friendly was my best bet on my first game and when I did that most of my readings got the right guys.

I see this signals on sqrt's posts, mostly. Check out these quotes:

I felt like Eden is running out of arguments after the Kenpachi gambit. After the stuff he said does not sell to people he soft-calls out poofer for something really awful.

Also poofer's post was bad because this is not a normal hydra game and reading two people as one is a bad strategy, if someone is scummy they are likely to be scum. It does not matter how townie the other half looks.

Let's see if Palmar is paying attention to the game. He should most likely say these things in case he is town.

I like the summary of his opinion on the issue. "Meh".


1) Being excited =\= spamming. More than that, I wasn't posting anymore because I was sleeping. Different time zones hooray. I'm excited and I'm reading through everything but if you think not giving a opinion on someone is scummy, I'll say that giving free useless opinions on everyone is scummy. As I didn't know at the time what the Kenpachi rule was and as I said we needed more game to have a primary argument, I think it's pretty reasonable to just point out useless effort and wait to have more food to make a case, probably around midday.

2)Pointint out that I didn't know exactly what was happening because I didn't know the meaning of Kenpachi rule. How can I understand a fight if I can not understand the language?
I think the team name bolding is very good so we can give a better analysis while diving through the topic.

3) See point 1. Also, I don't think it was unnecessary post as we were wasting breath on a useless subject by the moment, and I find scummy people who just spam things about useless objects, so town loses time and focus. It has already stopped, well, yes, but to the point you would say that I pratically necrobumped it? Check the post times or the distance between my post and the last "Kenpachi rule" post. It's less than a page.
More: why would I bring the discussion back just to say "let's not discuss this"? If it was a misleading topic and I were scum, shouldn't I just keep the topic going on saying something like "oh we have to use this policy because of X"?

Is a good post. Decent logic here.

Overall, I'm on the fence with these guys.

Haru, a question for you.

Howerever, there is no strong argument to justify a lynch, as there is no strong argument to justify his townreads.

If you check his filters, you will find tiny posts with little information and reasoning behind. It just looks like he is trying to look like he is contributing, but not contributing at all.

But if he is scum, I'd better check Alakaslam also, because they are a team. If you filter dive him, you're going to find posts with no much useful information. Like this one:

So, although I'm not sure if alakaslam is not contributing more because he, at the time, didn't have enough food on anybody, and although he doesn't have an overly friendly behavior like sqrt, this lack of contribution fits sqrt's attitude until now.

Slam gotta do better to change my vote.



GlowingBear gives a scumread on Team Cabernet Sauvignon, the main point being that sqrt is not giving strong reads. (Note: at this point Team Cabernet Sauvignon is already under heavy pressure) So you can´t call this "going out on the battlefield". (complete case spoilered above)


Overall they look pretty bad. There´s not that much behind their posts and the townreads feel like they´re given for free while the scumreads are OMGUS on rayn which is easy to get out of because it´s "just" OMGUS and an easy scumread on Team Cabernet Sauvignon (mostly sqrt).

HAHAHAH mderg I don't want to call this read bad, but I have to

you chalk everything up as 'I dont know what they're doing so I ASSUME they are doing xyz....' you're making an ASS our of U and ME. So bad.

So you don't know why I townread robik, so you're going to ASSUME I did it to buddy him? Oh god no. Neither does buddying robik makes this game easy. Last game, you did the same shit and assumed but you flipped town, so i'm a bit hesitant to call you scum for trying to do this.

if you don't know why anyone did anything, ASK. Don't ASSUME. Making a case out of assumptions only make you look bad.

I've never played on TL, only irl and some facebook based games. I'm familiar with how mafia works.

As for the game so far, I don't really see any information to cast more than suspicion on anyone.

Fun question
What merits casting more than suspicion then
And who is your suspicion cast upon

So I go to sleep

and this question still isn't answered... Stratiform pls

Robik can you tell me what bunnies/poof have done that's scummy other than "they disagree with each other"? Alternately can you explain why disagreeing with your teammate is alignment indicative?

I don't know. The only thing that really bothers me strongly is that they have differing reads based off of my previous experience with playing as a hydra and the two heads expressing differing reads -- it also happened in my first game with rayn and mocsta expressing different reads. So both hydras that I've played with that were mafia had different reads. The one hydra that I played with that had the same reads (mattisfoolish) had the same reads.

it also MINORLY bothers me that bunnies is trying to push scum on me because I'm town, so that's pushing an anti-town agenda


I was waiting for you to say that robik

Top town

Nothing in that Robik post stands out as town to me. There´s also no explanation for that read, so I see it as buddying with Robik. We all know that being on Robik´s good side makes things much easier. I´d say it was a calculated move.

It´s also difficult to understand how they´re individually reading other players here. After these posts I have no idea how Haru is reading Robik and Exo anymore. While GlowingBear is supposedly scumreading them.

Few things I noted, mebbe they're useful or will be, maybe not. With slam/sqrt, check how easy the wagon is, I don't see any pushback for the lynch. I don't really get this weird martyring behaviour from a team of 2, you'd expect at least one of them to prop up the other. I don't know what that means. They're both unstable? Or it's a ploy? ?? I'm not used to Slam insulting the thread like this. That doesn't make me feel good. I'm tentatively ok with this lynch but with reservations I guess.

Stratiform doesn't look quite so bad. Not sure about Palmar. Not gonna be around to judge him on today's play so meh.

Poofter didn't bother playing. Many scumpoints. I've felt ok about bunnies, but Poofter dragging her down. Probably not lynch but I don't trust.

Right now I like Haru/Glowing for mafia most.

Why these guys? Because my way of scumhunting is going through passivity and too much friendly behavior. Going against people there were being quite and being friendly was my best bet on my first game and when I did that most of my readings got the right guys.

I had suspicions on you, which doesn't mean you're necessarily suspicious of overly friendly behavior or passivity... that's why I'll filter dive you, so I can get a better view of what gave me the feeling that you were suspicious.

My main scumhunting is attacking passivity/friendly behavior. It's not may only scumhunting method.

Throws in random names (Robik, ExO, Eden) and a couple of times states that he scumhunts through passivity and friendly behaviour. These 3 names don't make much (any?) sense in this context. Robik the most abrasive of them all, Eden has been active, ExO's argued his corner firmly enough. His description of what he's looking for -> these 3 names doesn't seem natural to me. He brings up Robik as suspicious again in a later post but again never explains why, again it is the opposite of what he's looking for in mafia.
sqrt/Slam may have been passive to some extent maybe? They've been quite prickly too. There seems to be a whole bunch of other targets that conform to his self-professed view.

Basically I find the 3 names he throws in, together with his self-styled description of scumhunting, together with how he introduced sqrt/slam as scummy after that, very suspicious indeed. My best bet for mafia right now.


Really?

From what I read, robik is playing weird at first. He isn't coming into the thread and turning it into a shitstorm. This is acceptable at first since he noted his intent to let exo learn. Also, his strong will to kill anyone who thinks he is scum (town|robik does this) makes me think he is scum. But glowingbear probably doesn't meta read him and thus it is also acceptable for glowingbear to have a suspicion on him. Glowingbear isn't just throwing out names. We had discussed about these people in the qt and my opinions differs from glowing's in these regards. Thus, glowingbear isnt just writing them off as scum as I have a conflicting opinion.
Exo doesn't post jackshit d1 as town btw.
eden doesn't make sense? Read the thread bro
Sqrt/slam IS passive. Their posts were mostly replies and shit.
So glowingbear is scum for saying he wants to scumhunt through passivity, but others who aren't doing shit isn't suspicious? (LIKE MDERG)

He literally posts close to nothing

That giant read post of his is inherently scummy due to ^

Ok I think we have enough posts to make a case. When I get home, I'll reach my computer and do what I do best: filter diving. Then I'm going to bring cases. Expect a big post in around 4 hours since now.

Before I go, I must also say that focusing "townhunting" is worse than "scum hunting" in my opinion, because it gets easier to a scum to blend in your town circle and doesn't help to do a good lynch on day1, as you are going to choose who to lynch based on someone you just don't have a strong town read instead of lynching someone you have a strong scumread.

Ok, I've read enough.
I really can't read more right now, I tried to analyze every single page and it seems my head can't absorb that much information. I started to write a summary on what was going on but I've got no more energy to do. It's incomplete, but I will leave it here in case someone finds it useful:

Half-ass summary:
+ Show Spoiler +

A) Game started with Eden claiming VT. Tehpoofter questioned it (indirectly btw). Got a wagon on him because of Kenpachi Rule policy. Bunnies and Eden started a discussion about the kenpachi rule and about Bunnies writing nonsense.
B) Robik posted about getting on the backseat while ExO would take the main point of his team. Got wagoned when Eden decided that this and Robik's vt claim was suspicious.
C) Rayn accused Eden's and tehpoofter's posts of being the worst of the thread. It can be viewed at page 22 as quoted by Ede. This is the game while on page 22.
D) marv/mderg starts posting at page 23 right after Exo express his will to hear about them.
E) Eden is questioned by marv and palmer for his vt claim. Eden insists in his vt claim. This is around page 24.
F) Palmar scumreads my posts because he thinks it was filled with fluff and unhelpful, then voted on me and Haru. Page 26.
G) Rayn decides to vote on me and Haru assuming that Haru was writing useless stuff when defending Palmar's push on me. 26-27
H) Robik posted and people got on him again, inquiring about his back seat attitude and his vt claim.
I) 32 - 36: sqrt starts giving reads on everybody, mostly null or town reads, except for Palmar because... he didn't confirm? o.O. People start to pressure him.


So, for what I read until now, I have three main targets I want to read more: ExO, Robik and Eden. I'll filter dive them tomorrow, as I didn't have energy enough even to read through 50 long pages.
I have a stronger hunch on sqrt/alakaslam, as a lot of people were saying here.

Why these guys? Because my way of scumhunting is going through passivity and too much friendly behavior. Going against people there were being quite and being friendly was my best bet on my first game and when I did that most of my readings got the right guys.

I see this signals on sqrt's posts, mostly. Check out these quotes:

I felt like Eden is running out of arguments after the Kenpachi gambit. After the stuff he said does not sell to people he soft-calls out poofer for something really awful.

Also poofer's post was bad because this is not a normal hydra game and reading two people as one is a bad strategy, if someone is scummy they are likely to be scum. It does not matter how townie the other half looks.

Let's see if Palmar is paying attention to the game. He should most likely say these things in case he is town.

-WeDemandALawyer: Haru and GlowingBear


I like the summary of his opinion on the issue. "Meh".


1) Being excited =\= spamming. More than that, I wasn't posting anymore because I was sleeping. Different time zones hooray. I'm excited and I'm reading through everything but if you think not giving a opinion on someone is scummy, I'll say that giving free useless opinions on everyone is scummy. As I didn't know at the time what the Kenpachi rule was and as I said we needed more game to have a primary argument, I think it's pretty reasonable to just point out useless effort and wait to have more food to make a case, probably around midday.

2)Pointint out that I didn't know exactly what was happening because I didn't know the meaning of Kenpachi rule. How can I understand a fight if I can not understand the language?
I think the team name bolding is very good so we can give a better analysis while diving through the topic.

3) See point 1. Also, I don't think it was unnecessary post as we were wasting breath on a useless subject by the moment, and I find scummy people who just spam things about useless objects, so town loses time and focus. It has already stopped, well, yes, but to the point you would say that I pratically necrobumped it? Check the post times or the distance between my post and the last "Kenpachi rule" post. It's less than a page.
More: why would I bring the discussion back just to say "let's not discuss this"? If it was a misleading topic and I were scum, shouldn't I just keep the topic going on saying something like "oh we have to use this policy because of X"?

Is a good post. Decent logic here.

Overall, I'm on the fence with these guys.

Haru, a question for you.

Howerever, there is no strong argument to justify a lynch, as there is no strong argument to justify his townreads.

If you check his filters, you will find tiny posts with little information and reasoning behind. It just looks like he is trying to look like he is contributing, but not contributing at all.

But if he is scum, I'd better check Alakaslam also, because they are a team. If you filter dive him, you're going to find posts with no much useful information. Like this one:

So, although I'm not sure if alakaslam is not contributing more because he, at the time, didn't have enough food on anybody, and although he doesn't have an overly friendly behavior like sqrt, this lack of contribution fits sqrt's attitude until now.

Slam gotta do better to change my vote.



GlowingBear gives a scumread on Team Cabernet Sauvignon, the main point being that sqrt is not giving strong reads. (Note: at this point Team Cabernet Sauvignon is already under heavy pressure) So you can´t call this "going out on the battlefield". (complete case spoilered above)


Overall they look pretty bad. There´s not that much behind their posts and the townreads feel like they´re given for free while the scumreads are OMGUS on rayn which is easy to get out of because it´s "just" OMGUS and an easy scumread on Team Cabernet Sauvignon (mostly sqrt).

##vote Team WeDemandALawyer


HAHAHAH mderg I don't want to call this read bad, but I have to

you chalk everything up as 'I dont know what they're doing so I ASSUME they are doing xyz....' you're making an ASS our of U and ME. So bad.

So you don't know why I townread robik, so you're going to ASSUME I did it to buddy him? Oh god no. Neither does buddying robik makes this game easy. Last game, you did the same shit and assumed but you flipped town, so i'm a bit hesitant to call you scum for trying to do this.

if you don't know why anyone did anything, ASK. Don't ASSUME. Making a case out of assumptions only make you look bad.

'HALU CALLS PALMER TOWN FOR CALLING HIMSELF TOWN HURR 100% SKUM'

'I NO UNDERSTANDS HALU TOWNLEAD LOBIK 100% SKUM'

'OVERALL LOOK BAD BECUZ TOWNLEAD LOOKS BAD LEL'

'SKUMLEADS BAD CUZ OMGUS LEL'

'SO I VOTE DEM LEL'

(ps. I apologise if you cannot stomache this, but I'm pissed that mderg is doing this.Very pissed.)

This is completely different from that last game. I won´t discuss anything about that game since it is still going on.

There was exactly one point were I assumed what your intentions were. That was the townread on Robik. Buddying Robik has a good chance of making the game easier. If he likes you, there´s a good chance that it becomes harder to push you because of him.

I don´t appreciate your aggressive tone and I don´t think that it makes you look better.
