Why is it scummy that when Mages posted about being afraid to post because he is new that MM1 said that Mages didn't need to be afraid to post because there were others just like Mages who are pretty new to forum mafia. Why is comforting people scummy? I am calling this now: Mysterymeat1 is TOWN I put money on it. Going against this is going against me. Please read again. I have never said that it's scummy to post about Avatar. It's not really definitely scummy to trash yourself. It's just that often scum are more keen to appear useless / meaningless as a player so that they won't be accused of being useless in the discussion. | ||

It just didn't feel good to have a big push on VE based on very weak / subjective reasons immediately after he was voted by VE. It felt like an OMGUS / panic reaction that scum might make in his situation. But MM admitted in his post that it would probably look like OMGUS. Which it probably is I think he took the second post out of context. But it honestly feels towny from him and how he normally plays hes at least posting his thoughts and interacting. You just feel like your jumping on him and trying to push because he might of picked up momentum for a good mislynch at this stage. | ||

Because I've already explained several times now that it wasn't something that made him scum, just something to describe his earliest posts with. Why would posting about Avatar make you scum? | ||

You don't agree that the reason to why Mysterymeat " trashed himself" was to make Mages feel more comfortable? Because that looks pretty pro-town to me.

You said this: On August 11 2014 21:56 onevone wrote: 2) MysteryMeat1 After the votes on him, he comes back with a big case on VE (one of the voters) that isn't really saying much I just gave you 4 reasons to townread MysteryMeat of that case.

I think he overreacts to the votes and combined with his self-trashing opening, it isn't a bad vote for now. ##Vote MysteryMeat1 So if I know analyze these 2 points you made about MysterMeat1 1) Downplayed + talked about Avatar ---> Like I said. This is not scummy. He talked with some people about Avatar. He comforted Mages. 2) He makes a case on VE that doesn't say much. ---> Probably the best case in the game so far. At least way better than all the cases on MysterMeat. I am still waiting on somebody telling me the 4 green bolded things in his case are more likely to come from scum than town. Because I see it coming more likely from town. Why is your vote still on MysteryMeat? ##unvote ##vote: onevone | ||

Why would posting about Avatar make you scum? It doesn't make you scum at all especially what was going on in the thread at that point. Your case felt like you popped this in there as why other people were reading him scum and part of the reason that you were. It just felt disingenuous and a bit like you were warping the facts. And now it feels a lot like you are backtracking and trying to cover yourself. | ||

The first wagon to get going is very rarely an actual lynch in my experience. But this is definitely a better topic to talk about than Avatar and it's likely that the clues to figure out the scumteam are already partly within reach from these first pages (combined with later evidence). | ||

I don't think "Figuring out the Scumteam" is our day 1 plan. Specifically, I think that scum would be more likely to think about the game in that manner over town who *should* be more concerned with finding exactly 1 scum day one, or else achieving a good, information-heavy lynch. | ||

However you still failed to speak to the nature of the post, if you said something appears to make someone scummy and then come off of it and misrepresent whats going on and come off of it its backtracking. And you are backtracking off of what you said of MM | ||

I'll vote for someone else when I find someone more scummy. No point in not voting at all just because the read is weak. I just said that the reasons in MM1's case are not scummy in themselves. Yet you continue to ask me why they are scummy. I only said that the timing + weak (not scummy) reasoning of the case didn't look good, making it look more like a panic reaction. It's plausible that the case itself is a genuine town thought process. | ||

And you are backtracking off of what you said of MM How am I backtracking? I've never said anything else than MM1 being slightly scummy and that he talked about Avatar early on (not a scummy thing to do, just a description of what he did in comparison to Mages). | ||

I meant it as in generating clues to help determine the scumteam later on rather than figuring out the whole scumteam now. | ||

However if you don't think its scummy why even put it in your post that lead up to a vote? | ||

Also in a non-instant but still Majority Lynch game it's important to get votes out there at a reasonable time since it takes time to get 7? votes or however many we need today. Although you'll notice that I've refrained from voting. (#lynchbatsnax) | ||
