Updated reads:
Rsoultin - Some reads, some questioning, short filter, but not a lot if any spam. No red flags. After 22 pages, I hope he can come up with more reads, there's way more to work with now.
LS - Same as Rsoultin, some reads, and very short filter, no noise, but with 22 pages, again, more input would be appreciated.
Alakaslam - About as close as it gets to coasting, dropped in once, had a few minor points, but was largely spam and a joke vote. Concurrent game participation is NOT an excuse - Damdred and SL are in the same game as he is, and they have contributed at least twice as much this game. Likely scum.
Meatpudding - 24h gap alone isn't cause for concern, particularly as people have posted less. Some reads are better explained than others, but his calling out of SL makes complete sense. Nothing here really is indicating scum. Null to slight town lean.
Kush - No real red flags so far. Some decent reads, called DSMI for his tactics, thinking seems to be townie aligned.
Batsnacks - Premature vote on kush, whether you want to define it as pressure or policy, it was way too early to be doing that (8 hours into the game), even if you knew his meta. Adding to that is a lack of reads, a vote for DSMI without explanation and the one of us is dead comment, those last two things don't add up. The policy vote was my biggest problem with him before Trfel even pulled what he did. Oats argument was a weak defence, and I'm not seeing a meta argument anywhere for his behaviour aside from the kush vote. Overall there's too much wrong with Bats to not vote him down. My views on him were scum, but the DSMI vote only reinforces that.
SL - First, there was the afk thing at the off, got him nowhere, posts through page 17 are mostly answers to questions, some observations. But post page 17 is what gets me. There's not a lot of original thought in his posts, particularly with casting suspicion on Damdred, and didn't have many reads on more than the 3 players he marked for scum. In fact, most of his discussion is noise or focused on the same three players. I'm not sure why he made Breskhe null and then scumlisted, explanation wasn't very clear at all there.
Breskhe - Not posting much, but posts are mostly of substance. No red flags here.
Oats - Tunneling on Bats is problematic, even if it was initially justified. Could provide a few more reads, but most of his posts seem town-aligned. Yes there is nitpicking, but the points presented have been valid. I don't agree with LS being scum, not yet, but I understand why he's made that point. Even if I were to play devil's advocate and suspect Oats of being scum, it's not anywhere near as strong as Bats and Damdred.
Damdred - I'd like to see Oats' reasoning for calling Damdred scum, but on my end we have the excessive questioning at the beginning of the game and the LS policy vote suggestion, he gives a few reads but drops off with the exception of going toe-to-toe with Oats, which isn't bad in of itself. I believe SL and someone else has called him out too, and I don't see any defence as of page 18.
DSMI - massive gap in posting though latter posts have been somewhat okay even if I don't agree with some of his points, although the Bats vote appeared to be a bandwagon vote. Null. Nothing strong.
Alakaslam is liable for a (lurker) policy vote at this point with just over 6h remaining, SL is all over the place, but at this point, the overwhelming pile is on Batsmacks.

My problem with trolling (anyone, not just Bats) is that it's noise, it's not productive and creates confusion for townies, especially in a (relative) newcomers' game.

DSMI voters - I understand the policy vote arguments, and for the most part, I'm okay with that, because he and Alakaslam had about the same post count with minimal substance going into last night. I can accept that argument. The Day 1 argument, okay, I can also give someone that too...however...
I'm looking at his post-page 18 activity and he has been putting out some substance though it could be supported better. He did have a bandwagon bats vote...
...but if you are looking to policy vote ANYONE at this point, you guys should be going after Alakaslam, not DSMI. After page 18, DSMI isn't a policy vote in my book.

What do I mean? I mean that he is going to be a big unknown all game due to his lack of activity and not giving a fuck. Unlike someone like bats or oats, who can prove themselves town later in the game.
Fair point, but can you (or anyone) distinguish between him and Alakaslam?

I believe his issue is not the quantity of posts, it's the quality of them. In my case, I had a problem with the voting.
Also, in your history of playing this game how often does a scum player try and be overly active so that focus is off of him later on?

LS, is that no-vote even allowed? Can we get a clarification from the hosts please? First no-votes were allowed on page 11 and then latest on page 15 they were not.
Newbie question - no-vote/sleep same as abstain right? If not how are they different?

Currently, Oatsmaster is set to be lynched. Day 1 ends in at 22:00 GMT (+00:00).
Reminder to make sure to unvote before voting, if you have already voted someone.
Remember, voting is Mandatory. You may NOT abstain.

LS, check page 1. DSMI is not in the noob category. You were last game and this game. You cannot compare the two situations.
Kush, I went through his filter again, and now your arguments are making a lot more sense. I checked the filter against the sequence of his reads/explanations versus others for the same individuals and there is a lot of bandwagoning. Too much for his own good this late in the day.
I'm still not feeling too good about Batsnacks though, ignoring any meta. I would be lying if I said otherwise.

Er, 1 each for Alakaslam, Batsnacks and Trfel. Bats changed his vote excessively...

Okay, went through from page 15 onwards.
DSMI (4) - Kush, Damdred, Lightning, myself Batsnacks (3) - Oats, Trfel, DSMI Trfel (1) - Batsnacks Rsoultn (1) - sicklucker Sicklucker (1) - Meatpudding Alakaslam (1) - Rsoultn

Regarding the no-votes, DSMI voted Bats, but that vote wasn't counted as it wasn't in the correct format.
Breshke being Aussie has a timezone disadvantage, so if he votes, will be forced to vote last minute.
And Alakaslam has been inactive so who knows if he'll vote.
|
That is frustrating, his voting also made no sense. We had no way of figuring he was the doctor, and I was convinced enough by kush. Now I'm having a really bad feeling about this. Who else seemed driven to vote DSMI?
|
Well let's look at the arguments used to defend bats - Day 1 reads being unreliable to awful (justifying his bad reads on people) and DSMI's gameplay being poor, the latter upon which we generally agree.
Damdred if I recall used a meta argument against DSMI.

Damdred - your question about the meta read -
This is the post I was referring to, to when which SL said you had convinced him.

If you compare Bats earlier games Mission Mafia, Storm, Neat and Tidy, Cell, Titanic. You will see A HUGE disparity in the way he plays. I am always suspicious of batsnacks though because we have such a good history together and I think his scum game and his town game can be similar depending on the amount of time he puts in. Thats just the thing about Meta cases though they can be wrong and can be right
This second point isn't right at all, I even quoted myself when I questioned Dicksmash and he never answered me at all. I never said who my scum leans were and Bresh was the only person to inquire which I just now got around to answering part of hat question and of course I can't go extremely in depth like I want on my phone thats just silly reasoning there.

Lightning, I voted for DSMI, but did not "actively pursue" the case. Here are the posts in question.

Fair point, but can you (or anyone) distinguish between him and Alakaslam? The keyword is DOUBLES. As in he's a good scumlynch as well as plynch. Alaka would be a better pure plynch sure, but Dicksmash has scummy content as well. Dicksmash shows a need to survive. Earlier he came into the thread and tried to give some content.

I took what kush said and tested it using the filter against the arguments he presented. It fell in line, which is why I was convinced enough to change the vote.

Then theres this post, not sure what you are doing here but trying to say voting lots is scummy? Overall I think dicksmash is scum. His reads are pretty flimsy and easy to back out of, he has little to no follow up with the questions he asked and dodged several peoples questions. He has only became active now since he is up for lynch today, he throws dirt on people to see what can stick and his scum read on SL went into the ether and he voted on someone he never called scum till later instead of his scum read at that second. This guy is pretty scummy
The result of which....

As an aside, if town jumps on a townie (nearly inevitable in Day 1 lynch) mafia wouldn't need to push after it hard. Their only concern should be protecting their own team. Means the pushers aren't necessarily mafia. To assume they are is to go down a rabbit trail.
There was no reason not to push Dick. We can agree on that, I hope. Whether or not there was a better choice is up for debate, so why don't we take a look back and see if we still think those people are scum? That seems far more productive than this. Anyone still thinking Bats looks good for it?
Well reasons were brought up for voting Bats to begin with - to simplify we have the voting and what he did with the voting, and second the argument that Trfel used with his behaviour. Using your theory, let's test what you said, and see if we can answer the question - what did bats do when everyone piled on DSMI? Well for starters he left his last vote on Trfel, mainly to prove a point I think, and then he fades out.
This is my reference point - kush's initial call on Bats:

Batsnacks is way too active to lynch d1. The truth is that it's rare that someone is going to have strong reads d1, so you can't fault batsnacks for that. He has been promoting discussion and had a huge presence in the thread. You don't ever lynch someone like that d1. Oats, you should know that. And that's what makes me worry about you.
Examining the posts where Batsmacks posted AFTER kush made his initial charge: (top of page 23)

Batsnacks even moved his vote off of Oatsmaster and then moved it back without explanation, which I feel gives even less support to his accusation. I don't feel that batsnacks has been promoting discussion, since he hasn't really been adding any discussion himself. I've given more reads than you.  By my count, you've given zero reads. I've explained why your Oatsmaster read is terrible, do I need to quote myself here? Meanwhile I've given one read. I also have several town leans, but I haven't felt the need to share those yet. I can do so if you would like, though. Anyway, batsnacks, I REALLY want to know why you keep changing your vote between Oatsmaster and Dicksmash without explanation. This seems extremely fishy to me. What's fishy about it? Why does changing my vote make me mafia?
