Dafuq man. How do you dive without filters? How do you guys even play without filters?! Also this is my first all vanilla game so I was thinking of ways mechanically to hunt scum. I've got iGrok at a light town lean for wanting to go at lurkers from the start, which was one of the first things I considered. I'm not sure I agree with his RSo read, but I'm trash at treading her, and most ppl, D1. But as someone mentioned, she's threatened to go full lazy lurk mode and still hasn't. Not D1 Lynch. I'm going to have to reread since no filters and I'm on mobile(I always play mobile, sry) but I remember being ehh on FF. It's too early for an associative read but his reaction to ruxxar felt a bit forced. "Idk I don't like ruxxar" its too noncommittal. Great, I'm not sure I like him either but I'm going to reread and figure out why I do/don't. He seems too bouncy to read clearly. | ||

I don't like Cop feeling it necessary to point out that he's a gem, as well as giving us his own chosen example of his scum meta. It shows he's very weary of his play, and how he looks at himself as scum, and trying to influence us in that direction instead of giving us the opportunity to do so on our own. Unless that is literally his only scumgame on this site. | ||

Look at the timing of when I said I needed to reread and the post you're referring to as "after my reread." My first post was from my first read through. All the posts after that were only referring to the posts I had missed while I was catching up from my last post and a few reads I felt comfortable posting from the first read through that I didn't include in my first post. And I'm posting as I catch up so inb4 "you reread now, you're posting now, came back to thread, still nothing" I'm getting there. | ||

Then he says he has to re-read and instead of doing that he goes to post about something completely different. Like i get that his posts are 5 minutes apart, but it still doesn't make any sense he feels it's more important to to make another post onto townreads (damdred) and finding out other suspects (cake) when you already have people you suspect. He just leaves his read on FF & ruxxar onto "idk" state when the most logical thing to do is to go and figure out the reads on them. I believe he just got timid about the fact his post was called out bad and had to post something that would be considered "good". ##unvote ##vote The Shining ruxxar and edgar still mafia but this is my strongest scumread. Cool. Lynch town. I don't really want to play without filters, anyway. Thanks for noticing my posts were 5 mins apart, though. I just had the other reads fresh on my mind as well and wanted to post them so that if I brought them up later, my reads wouldn't be "contrived." I always put whatever is on my mind in thread when it's on my mind. | ||

Edgar - says he is at impasse but in the next sentence contradicts himself and votes for iGrok. TheShining - says "I'm going to have to reread since no filters and I'm on mobile(I always play mobile, sry) but I remember being ehh on FF. It's too early for an associative read but his reaction to ruxxar felt a bit forced." In the next post after re-read talks about everything that is not FF or ruxxar. Sad. I agree wholeheartedly with one and could lynch into the other. If I wasn't 3rd, I'd have you even higher on my town list than you already are ![]() | ||

I liked Scott first post, it felt genuine. Mm after that Scott attacked me, but I didn't really sense scum intentions. I've never seen Scott play scum, so have no meta for this. I still think he's a slight town read. My 100# town this game is damdred and rsoul. When I'm posting fluff first day to create activity, it's easy to see who is in the same relaxed, non stressed/tense mindset. I got that vibe from damdy and rs, don't want to lunch them this game unless they do something super scummy. Other town reads: Kelsier I'm ok with for now. Scott is meh, very slight town. I think rayn is misguided town on me, wants to find scum Rels super town, criticizing and asking edgy questions. Who else.. Fecal is neutral ish, defo not town lean. Coppy response to pressure was meeh, not so good. Shining had again big polished post, it's always slight scum lean to me when I see these kinds of polished posts, big content posts. Igrok is slight scum lean, didn't like his opening post, but could possibly come from town. His case which is the reason for him voting rsoul is so bad and bullshit I don't even know what to say. It made me think he's even more scum honestly. Those are the people I remember right now, off the top of my head. Maybe I forgot someone, dno. I'll read more in depth when I can use a computer and read filters etc. Ehhhh. Still wanna lynch you. You have been aloof, self-meta'ing, then you drop this bomb. Kelsier and Scott reads and even really explained. Why was Cop's response to pressure meh? You call me scummy for dropping a big content, "polished" post in the biggest post I've seen you post thus far...meh. | ||

I already gave my thoughts on self meta and my not wanting to be pushed in a direction that Cop wanted to push us in. I put an immediate block in it in my mind because it's obviously a scum meta that Cop wants me to abide by when reading him/her. | ||

You stated at the beginning of the game that you would hard push lurkers; good, I agree with that. Now it's time for you to do something else though. Cause the only person that did less scumhunting than you was yamato. The only thing you did was a case on rsoul paraphrasing all her posts, that didn't convince me. So you are an active lurker right now. You could start be doing what you said you would when waking up: I like this post. | ||

Lol this happens in every game with Damdred. He somehow is one of the only ones who can pick up on my townposts and immediately make me suspicious of him, for knowing I'm town when most want to lynch me lol. But every game this has happened, we've both been town, and Damdred is actually right, so he's still town. | ||

I'm not really seeing scum in anyone else, except maybe Scott, but I'm only suspicious because of activity. I'm on page 27 right now and still haven't caught anything but rayn defending igrok(with good logic, let him play since the pressuring could make him useless) and I still don't see any reads from iGrok outside of RSo. He even had a post regarding the split between LAL and the dissenters but hasn't made a post about any other scumreads. And with him having RSo at only 50% scum as top read, it seems he's very weary of committing to any one way of thinking outside of LAL | ||

I'm even less sure on igrok as scum now, this post and the one before it are pretty good. Meh, probably should've just caught up before giving a read. | ||

I'm low content and I post on mobile, at work. I fear that going back and rereading and addressing what I wanted to in the reread would bury the current live thoughts and reads that I had in my head, so I put them in the thread. | ||

FF's vote on ruxxar and post seems pretty legit. When FF is scum, I randomly decide to track him with no prompting or reason(lol I still find that funny). I don't feel like doing that here at all. Damdy(fite me RSo) sry to hear, love ya bro, you know how to find me, if anything. I'm riding a seesaw with ruxxar. Like, at some point, I started sitting back and wondering if its really just bad play vs scum motivation. I'm going to cop out here and sheep Damdred and RSo in not lynching ruxxar today. Also I don't really question the timing of that post Damdred, considering it was 5 minutes after your balls to the walls post and like 20 mins after your comment regarding noob. You pushed him into that direction lol. Edgar came in and targeted RSo. No reactions about anything else and no other reads. I don't think even unmotivated town does this. | ||

On August 07 2015 06:35 Rels wrote: OK good. What did you think of this post ? Not really sure what to make of this post. I want to immediately throw it into the same pile of Cake and ruxxar doing these self metas that just don't sit well with me. Like yes, meta can be used to find scum but you have to play the game, as well. This is a really big fluffy post where iGrok tells us what he thinks he does as town as scum. These always have to be taken with a grain of salt. Like obviously if you know you do xyz as scum and ABC as town, then you know enough to try and consciously change said meta. He also reaffirms his stance on LAL. One thing I did notice was he set that post up to say that in no way could he be scum here. We don't have 3p so he can't claim that like he would as scum. No vigi shots or medic saves to draw. He indirectly painted a scenario where there is no way he can be scum just because it's an all vanilla game and he can't do his normal scum things. I'm not sure if that was intentional but if he's scum, that's a very interesting way to self-meta without giving away your alignment. | ||

On August 07 2015 07:14 Rels wrote: OK wanted to know if that was comparable to ruxxar / cake or no. Your remark about him setting up his meta in a way he cannot be mafia is super interesting. It was and is. The only difference is his post was way more elaborate and detailed which admittedly should make him look worse. But there is so much information there, especially regarding his d2 town meta, that it could be of use to town going forward, even if he's scum. Because he has now trapped himself into having to abide by his own town meta and I'm kind of curious to see if this "burial" analysis on d2-3 he claims he will do is going to be genuine or contrived. When there are players like yamato who roll scum and quit games(not saying he's completely done this here yet but he's borderline for me) and drive by, non-contributive scummy posters like Edgar and huge question marks like Scott, things like this take a bit of a backseat. | ||

Damdred, my post right before EoD explained why I wouldn't switch to Scott. Work was hectic, I hadn't fully caught up, no idea when deadline was, I didn't see where or how the Scott wagon started gaining traction, and the biggest one was I had a newbie game with Scott in which he had like 5-6 posts d1 iirc. Did a lot of nothing, but had a strange vote post and scattered ideas like here and we lynched him D1. He flipped VT. I was afraid of it being the same situation. | ||

Posts 324 & 573. I'm not by any means saying they were good posts or anything great to go off of but, along with his excuse about work and that one prior experience, it was enough to make me hesitate. | ||

Im bad. Someone make me better lol. I cant believe I actually managed to do the whole catch up posting thing too lol I'm also very purposely ignoring the endgame stuff. I am going to take HTS word for it, among with the friends I have here, and say this is far from the norm. Cop, you should do the same. And I don't want to rehash any of the EoD stuff cuz it didn't directly involve me and I agree with a lot of points from a lot of different people. I've played with HF once or twice and this was a first. Sad to see you wanna go but I just came back from a break so I know the feeling. Ah well,enough rambling, onto the next! | ||
