Celestial, I have a townread on him. I know list posts in TL are generally frowned upon but his coming off with the list post to me is NAI - I was on the scumteam with him in Newbie LX, and he had mentioned to me he does those things as both alignments. His followup on Scott though is pretty solid (looking at Cel's filter, bottom of page 1, first post in page 2 of his filter) from the point he picks him off sheeping Superbia without looking into the case to the last quote he mentioned about his trying to get Celestial to back off him.
The other problem I have with Scott reading his filter (and after page 15 again) is not only that he didn't check Superbia's rationale/whatever but typically if you sheep someone you obviously want to be sure that the person in question is town. Going through his filter, he said he was going to keep an eye on the vets, Superbia being one of them. But if you look at page 1 of Scott's filter, there is not even an inference that he's concluding that Superbia is town nor does he appear confident in the former's reads before sheeping him. So that's another reason to scumread Scott for sure.
To further elaborate on Scott's approach to the game, as I've said in other games, going after inactives isn't bad in of itself, but only after you've townread most others and you're deeper into the game. It's generally never a good thing for town agenda to do it D1 and not everyone right now is active enough to even attempt PoE.

Im pretty sure we coached him to doing a list post so I kind of expect him to do it.
Why are listposts frowned apon there my fav.

Same.
I didn't have a problem with it, but there were at least 2-3 comments I read from others that they didn't like listposts or that listposts were scummy.

Case on scott:
Game starts with a bunch of non-alignment indicative things. Although I really don't like the whole thing of people posting "yay I'm town" because it honestly just comes across as insincere to me. He made a comment about keeping an eye on veterans he's seen play, specifically Superbia and sicklucker: + Show Spoiler + On May 03 2015 08:07 scott31337 wrote:Show nested quote +On May 03 2015 08:04 Superbia wrote:On May 03 2015 08:04 scott31337 wrote:On May 03 2015 08:02 sicklucker wrote: Scott are you the dude that always posts in obs qts?

Other than that his first nine posts don't really show anything at all. He makes random comments about how he's going to play the game and banters a little with Shining without actually pressuring. Not really alignment indicative but he's pretty much just meandering around off-topic. Admittedly this was very early on.
Then came the whole HtS incident. Something I missed last time was that he ACTUALLY MADE AN EXCUSE FOR HTS BEFORE JUMPING ON THAT WAGON: + Show Spoiler + On May 03 2015 09:11 scott31337 wrote:Show nested quote +On May 03 2015 09:08 Superbia wrote:On May 03 2015 09:07 The Shining wrote:On May 03 2015 09:06 Superbia wrote: HtS, SL, X.

So yeah, he himself makes an excuse for HtS and seems to completely accept that she just wouldn't be about, despite Superbia's initial criticism of her not being around.

Scott outright accepts this at face value. No attempt to question it. Either he's gleefully jumping on a train that someone else has started early, over-excited that he's caught someone lying and can get an early mislynch; or he's accepting what a mafia buddy is saying because he inherently trusts Superbia due to being on the same team. NO TOWN WOULD PLAY THIS WAY. There's an outside possibility it's just one of the worst town moves ever, but I don't buy that excuse. If scott is town then based on this he's an outright liability.

I don't like meta arguments generally (although him having actually played with me makes it a bit better) but now he's misrepresenting my meta from my prior game in order to flip around and to try to townread me to maybe placate me a bit.

Translation: "Yes I was a dumbass, but I'm town really, please believe me!" Sorry, no. Also ritoky pointed out the rather hillarious use of "we" here. I don't think this is so much a slipup as an oversight but amusingly could easily be used to refer to himself and his mafia buddies.

Sicklucker and prplhz are in the scummy pile for actually showing up and having shit posts.
I think Celestial could be town - the push is so early on me makes me wonder.
Two easy to make town calls, at least that's my feeling on FF and Shining. Hell, they're the two strongest town calls that I put out myself in my initial reads post. Plus a similar shoutout for Superbia. In my opinion this is smart mafia play whichever side Superbia is on. If he's mafia he's been associated with two townies, if he's not mafia then it sows more confusion. Two extremely easy scum calls because they've not posted much at all so they're soft targets. Nobody is going to defend them because there's not much to defend and they're not here to defend themselves right now; but it sets up nicely to potentially get a policy lynch train going. Reversing direction on me. First I'm scum because I called him out as scum and he willfully attempted to manipulate the facts to try to make me look bad. Then when I call that out for nonsense we get this rapid backpedalling despite the fact that virtually nothing has changed, I'm still calling for his head but apparently that now that means I'm town. My rough translation of the above post: "I, scott31337, am on the scum team. Please lynch me." Anyway its 5am here. I'm going to sleep. Goodnight.
His next few posts are just one liners or nothing with any substance. In the meantime Superbia pulls out his chainsaw and starts to use it on me, but that doesn't really work out too well either. If my tentative theory about a Superbia/scott team is true it may be that Superbia told scott in the mafia QT to shut up and let him do what he can to help.

Did you read HtS's filter before you put down your vote? No I did not - She hadn't posted anything in the game - I didn't think of her pre-game filter until it was mentioned. Then I saw the April 25th excuse and stopped there the first time - voted since I thought it was TMI - It was noted it was her May 1st post about being AFK instead.

scott is either scum or is playing horribly scummy town. Either way he's a total liability and I would not be surprised in the slightest to see him flip red.

Unfortunately in the time I've been away I've NOT been keeping an eye on games going on. Then again I tend to prefer any meta reading from games people have actually been in together. On with the show: What are you apologizing for? This feels like you yourself don't have any faith in your reads. This is likely because you had to fabricate them due to being mafia, because you feel confident enough to start a wagon on scott. Also, starting off with an apology for being late is pretty mafia.
This second part above, I simply interpreted Celestial just disregarding meta and drawing his own conclusions based on his following list post. Yes, what Superbia quoted there was preamble, and IIRC, Celestial did get a few scum reads for not posting prior to that list post. But his comment was also not the first on disregarding meta reads (I know one of the newbies mentioned that too, disinf maybe?), and that said I don't think there's anything wrong with an apology - he follows up with a list of reads based on what he has.
I think "not having any faith" in his reads isn't an appropriate comment at all, in fact I think he's just making Celestial look bad. The comment would be more applicable to someone who makes excuses like "well it's D1 and D1 reads are trash" then yeh saying that is fine, but this isn't the case. What part of the quote are you reading that way?

ritoky's sole post of note is an easy push on disformation. Other than that he's just posting nonsense and off-topic stuff. Coming across as pretty scummy to me; complete misdirection plays. So you say that you yourself did not like disformation's opening post, but you feel like ritoky is scummy for pushing on him? Is it not townie for ritoky to push on something that may very well be scummy? Furthermore, "easy push"? Since when are you so sure that disformation is town? Rest of your reads are pretty fluffy.
I looked at ritoky's opening post which I also thought was pretty bad

Then he mentions it's bullshit because he's loopy or whatever, but his later posts - particularly the one where he checks Superbia for not providing anything alignment indicative on SL aside from the pressure vote is quite townie to me. Ritoky that is.
But back to Superbia.
One of the things I've made clear in a lot of my games is that it's not the push on someone (esp a newbie or a weak player) that makes someone scummy, it's how that push is done. That said, looking at Superbia's quote, ritoky may have had a "bad" reason (smileys) to push on disinformation but from what I read of disinformation's entry post THAT IS NOT THE SAME REASON WHY CELESTIAL HAD A PROBLEM WITH THAT POST. He didn't comment on his smileys at all - his first post gave zero information and you can tell from Celestial's phrasing that his point on disinformation is JUST on that.

And again, more context problems with Superbia's "easy push" - doesn't mean he's saying that disinformation or anyone is town.
Easy pushes generally mean the player is weak - that comment was made because he's new to TL (first game) and not because he was so sure disinformation is town. Even Celestial himself said "weakly town."
That post is quite scumlike behaviour from Superbia. It's so bad.

So far, I have Superbia and Scott pretty red. Shining, Celestial look town. ritoky weak town lean. prplhz slight scum lean.
Stutters is null, same for sicklucker.
I will look at disinformation, yosu, and ticktock next, after I get off this conference call.
At this point in time, I can vote either of Superbia or scott.

Looking at why you voted Scott, I assume you mean his entry. No issues with your vote on Scott.
If so, what are your impressions of some of others' first posts?
Because Scott isn't the only one with a poor first entry to be honest.

Damn, Celestial, I missed your case on Scott whilst I was on Superbia. I'll re-read after this call finishes.

*cough* *cough* Currently taking in your posts and celestials case... Case looks incredibly solid. You have even more stuff on scott... And he was my top scum read before... Can't find a reason to not vote him... should probably head over to the voting thread and do so.
I feel like I need to think about superbia some more. As I was writing earlier I had a mixed feeling about him at the start, but I just gave him a bunch of credit for his push on me... after reading your post about him I am starting to get mixed feelings again.
Also looking forward to your other posts.

Mafia.
I've only played one other game. I was the Mafia Roleblocker. Link is in my profile.

so your mafia coaching is paying off well?
serious question though, why did your opening list have 3 mafia reads despite so many "too little info" reads?
|
Voted Scott in the voting thread. Still on call here.
I want Superbia to respond when he's around.

I would like that, too, as I am greatly confused as to where I would place him right now.

Yes. More practically I read a bunch of guides before I started playing that first game and I read how important it is to keep a consistent style. Hence why I'm largely trying to follow a similar style.

Because I had scott down as a pretty hard scumread and was very uncomfortable about Superbia both by himself and with his association with scott given the whole HtS thing. ritoky was just messing up the thread with insanity, hence timewasting whilst also looking like he's actually doing something which I'm given to understand is another mafia tell.
There happened to be three. If there'd been five people looking scummy then I'd have listed five. If scott had been the only one I'd only have listed him. Last game I learned to be more aggressive with posting reads because I opened very softly then by towning/nulling everyone and it looked kinda bad on reflection.

EBWOP: I realise there can't be five people on the team when its stated there are three but what I mean is if there'd been five suspicious people I'd have listed five and then looked to start eliminating people from that list.

EBWOP 2: I also realise that this doesn't help my position in this game, but I also don't want to compromise future games by deliberately changing my style just because I was mafia last time and am town this time.

okay, I guess I can buy that while trying to make T reads you just saw red.
Your case against scott is the first i've ever seen so i'll really have to give it a few more reads (as well as rereading the whole thread).
That said, I'm still not shaking the strange feeling that you're trying too hard to get a ML.. (hence I'm not jumping on the scott train yet.)
Have your feelings towards ritoky changed? I still see his "loopy" entrance as a red flag (as big if not bigger than people that haven't been posting).
