Gonna call this a newbie slip for now. coolTL, what is your current read on marv? You made a post that I mentioned earlier and i'm wondering if you did what you implied you were going to do.
Please clarify what you mean by this?

I mean that there have been discussions this game on whether coolTL was a smurf or a newbie. I didn't see where it was definitively decided that he was a smurf(actually iirc LS and someone else said he was newbie in Student V, which I also played in) so I'm giving him benefit of the doubt for saying bussing when he meant accusing.

But if it gets revealed that he is indeed a smurf some way or another, then this is something to revisit.
Okay, that actually makes sense.

He's almost guaranteed to be a newbie though, seeing as he PMd Damdred in the Student game (leading to his modkill)? I can't possibly see a smurf doing that.

Wait, right as I'm getting quite suspicious of sicklucker, Damdred and rsoultin say they don't want to lynch him.

Someone please explain, because I really don't see it. Everything I see from sicklucker is screaming mafia (page 29).

Is there some meta thing I'm not familiar with? I haven't played with sicklucker in quite some time, I don't remember playing seriously with him as mafia since Linux.

No, that's a bad way to think about things.

If you don't have reasons to lynch someone, don't lynch them. If you don't have any reasons to lynch anyone, look harder.

Do you have any reasons to lynch sicklucker?

pues, sl's reads have been very sl-centric

i generally attribute that to town...plus he was picking up on some interesting details even if they were oriented to him, in GB and in J Roc
I wouldn't attribute self-centered reads to town, I'd attribute them mostly to someone trying to play the game without enough time to really know what's going on? Which you've probably never experienced

Basically, I think that self-focused reads arise when you don't really remember everything in the thread that well, but because you know what you did very well, it's easiest to comment on all the things relating to you. This feels like a mafia behavior as well?

I can't possibly imagine that sicklucker can scumread J Roc here for errors in reading, of all things, (it's sicklucker, after all), especially after a plausible alternative explanation was provided.

Furthermore, his appeal to emotion and over-defensiveness seems very out of place, and I remember him doing these things in Guardians of the Galaxy as mafia (which were rather effective to me at the time).

I caught MoosyDoosy in a lie in his sprained ankle post.

He says he played QB, however he also said that he sprained his ankle while trying to catch the ball. QB doesn't catch the ball.

MoosyDoosy is mafia.

If you don't like the direction that the thread is going in, shouldn't you do something about it instead of just commenting?

OK this post is terrible for two reasons:
- it's 20 minutes into the game
- LS WAS the only person trying to do serious stuff at the time

Here are several posts LS made pushing the game forward before this "LS if you want a serious game do something about it" Trfel post:

Welcome to the Wonderful World of Trfel!
(musical version)

Soundtrack for this post

As some of you may know, I really appreciate instrumental music. As with most things, my knowledge of classical music is very limited (I only know a few of the major symphonies, for example), but that doesn't stop me from enjoying music. My tastes in music are fairly strange and specific, which I suppose comes partly from my musical background.

I have no real music theory education, but I have been playing trumpet for a while, throughout grade school and continuing in college. I like to think that I'm quite good at it, but unfortunately musical instruments are very challenging for most people and it would take me far more effort than I feel comfortable giving to get my trumpet playing to the next level. So I'm stuck playing in one of the boring bands at the university, which just has a bunch of people who feel like playing their instrument once in a while but aren't terribly good at it. And I've found myself really losing my appreciation for playing and practicing trumpet, which is very sad because I've spent so much time working on my trumpet playing over the past five years or so, but I'm not sure if there is anything that I can do about it.

But I still enjoy music a ton. Not just listening to it, but being a part of it. So I'm trying to learn how to compose music. It's quite difficult because I have no formal theory training (just whatever I've picked up over my years with trumpet and coming from a fairly musical family), and my piano playing skills are next to zero (and piano playing is basically how everyone composes music). So it will definitely be a difficult learning period, but I hope that I can push through it.

I have a keyboard in my room now, full 88 keys. I've tried to play it several times, but I'm so bad that it's painful to listen to myself. If anyone has any tips for starting on the piano, I'm very interested XD

But the piano has proved useful for testing new chords and progressions for my songs. I don't have much yet, and the progress is slow, but I'm hoping that I can figure out how to compose proper music.

I generally enjoy music with heavier usage of brass instruments (I do play trumpet, after all). John Williams has done some incredible things with brass in many of his famous movie scores and other compositions. In particular, his french horn usage is amazing. I also found an old CD of some Miklos Rosza film music, and that's been really enjoyable as well. The style of music used in film scores seems very fun to compose, play, and listen to, as there is much more freedom in the music itself (though modern movies tend to utilize the musical score more for background only, and don't use a recurring melody that brings the music directly to people's attention, which I find a bit lacking).

Despite having basically no idea what I'm doing, I'm very excited about the possibilities and hope to create some good songs.

One great band piece to end the post (or at least, I think it's a great band piece ):

TLDR please? Also guys I'm town this game let's get some scum lynched!

TLDR:

yada yada music yada

not posting cause music yada yada
Anyway, this post is extremely scummy. Rsoultin is clearly mafia.

Why does she not take a stance? She's just fanning the flames and waiting to see where everyone comes down instead of actually leading the thread.

##vote rsoultin

Policy lynching her already? Oh please I thought that post was funny from her lol.

Hm, I kind of actually think you are mafia now.....

But I can't decide if I should push or wait.....

@Trfel is this a serious post
if it is I find super weird the fact that most posts before and after this one are funny posts

OK after I finish catching up I'll do a Trfel's filter dive to check if my feeling is right. But I definitely have the feeling there is a contradiction in tone progression in Trfel's posts, something like funny => one serious => funny => one serious => funny
If you think that me alternating between being serious or funny is a sign that I am mafia, then I have no more words for you. To be honest, depending on how that's applied, it's probably the easiest way to read me.

Since apparently I wasn't clear:

I started out by voting rsoultin as a joke. Then I started being a bit suspicious of rsoultin, but not enough that I wanted to actually push it (at least until I reread things). Before I was able to reread things, rsoultin made some posts that were contrary to the assumptions I had made for some of my suspicions of her, and then I realized a few flaws in my suspicions. So I wasn't very suspicious of her any more).

Clear enough?

Rels case plus what others had said about you.
Then I'm assuming you are referring to the one I quoted earlier.

That case is absolute garbage. The claim that Rels makes is that LightningStrike's posts to that point actively pushed the game forward. The thing is, pushing the game forward early in the game can be rather difficult to do, and most people can't do it (even when they try). I know that I can't do it, but I'll keep trying anyway, largely because it's fun.

LightningStrike's posts didn't drive the game forward. Of the posts that Rels quoted that he claims show that LightningStrike pushed the game forward, the following posts do nothing of the sort:

Asking for TLDR does not drive the game forward. Saying you are town does not drive the game forward. Saying you want to lynch scum does not drive the game forward.

So I'm stuck playing in one of the boring bands at the university, which just has a bunch of people who feel like playing their instrument once in a while but aren't terribly good at it. And I've found myself really losing my appreciation for playing and practicing trumpet, which is very sad because I've spent so much time working on my trumpet playing over the past five years or so, but I'm not sure if there is anything that I can do about it.

But I still enjoy music a ton. Not just listening to it, but being a part of it. So I'm trying to learn how to compose music. It's quite difficult because I have no formal theory training (just whatever I've picked up over my years with trumpet and coming from a fairly musical family), and my piano playing skills are next to zero (and piano playing is basically how everyone composes music). So it will definitely be a difficult learning period, but I hope that I can push through it.

I have a keyboard in my room now, full 88 keys. I've tried to play it several times, but I'm so bad that it's painful to listen to myself. If anyone has any tips for starting on the piano, I'm very interested XD

But the piano has proved useful for testing new chords and progressions for my songs. I don't have much yet, and the progress is slow, but I'm hoping that I can figure out how to compose proper music.

I generally enjoy music with heavier usage of brass instruments (I do play trumpet, after all). John Williams has done some incredible things with brass in many of his famous movie scores and other compositions. In particular, his french horn usage is amazing. I also found an old CD of some Miklos Rosza film music, and that's been really enjoyable as well. The style of music used in film scores seems very fun to compose, play, and listen to, as there is much more freedom in the music itself (though modern movies tend to utilize the musical score more for background only, and don't use a recurring melody that brings the music directly to people's attention, which I find a bit lacking).

Despite having basically no idea what I'm doing, I'm very excited about the possibilities and hope to create some good songs.

One great band piece to end the post (or at least, I think it's a great band piece ):

TLDR please? Also guys I'm town this game let's get some scum lynched!


TLDR:

yada yada music yada

not posting cause music yada yada
Anyway, this post is extremely scummy. Rsoultin is clearly mafia.

Why does she not take a stance? She's just fanning the flames and waiting to see where everyone comes down instead of actually leading the thread.

##vote rsoultin

Policy lynching her already? Oh please I thought that post was funny from her lol.
Basically saying "Policy lynching rsoultin is bad". But he's not actually saying anything about my (Trfel's) alignment here, or anything about rsoultin (other than not wanting to policy lynch her at this time).

He doesn't say anything about Damdred's alignment at all. He just comments.

What these posts have in common is that they don't drive the thread forward or contribute towards any reads. They're just commenting without taking a stance.

CLARIFICATION: I do NOT think that these posts are scummy or bad. While they don't drive the thread forward, they don't hurt town at all. In fact, LightningStrike's early posting suggests that he is town, so that is useful. But that doesn't change the fact that Rels' claim is simply wrong.

The other two posts that Rels quoted are where LightningStrike asks a question about rsoultin's stance on Damdred:

nope

Then what were you implying there?
Which I suppose can maybe be seen as driving the thread forward, but not very strongly. It's essentially just a question for clarification.

If you don't like the direction that the thread is going in, shouldn't you do something about it instead of just commenting?
This post. This is NOT a scumread. I was trying to tell LightningStrike that if he wants the thread to be a certain way, and to have a certain direction/atmosphere, then he should try to create that atmosphere. He could produce some reads with actual explanations, for example. Note that at this point, LightningStrike had actually made zero reads. This isn't driving the thread forward. Again, LightningStrike's posting wasn't bad by any means, I was trying to encourage him to do more (in the primary definition of the word, the positive one).

Basically, Rels' case has no grounds whatsoever, and completely misinterprets LightningStrike's early posts and my post towards him. I am not sure if it makes him mafia or not, but I really don't like it.

Rayn and SL hardcore bussing each other to start the game, both think it is funny to claim mafia when they are actually mafia.

Trfel why do you have a town read on Rayn?

Either way that means your a veteran. In that case, you should know rayn never buses his partners unless necessary. Strike against you sir.



This isn't true, Rayn will bus.

no marv. you literally know all this here is 100% bullshit, and considering this guy is a smurf you should be extremely concerned about what he says here. and you are not.

rayn you don't bus as mafia ??

never unnecessarily.
which this would 100% be if i was mafia with sl.
So you consider your early few posts on sicklucker to be a strong push?

Alright goodnight, I am one of the few people on the site who can read Rsoultin. Town lean on her for now.

rsoultin who is this guy?

What comes to my mind is:
jat
yamato
hf

if this is any of those three people he is 100% scum.
See this is what I don't understand about raynpelikoneet...

He knows that justanothertownie is of the opinion that raynpelikoneet's bus in XXX Mafia was unnecessary. Right or wrong (I didn't read the game), there is debate over it, and justanothertownie is clearly opposed to raynpelikoneet.

So if it is justanothertownie, and he is town, it's natural for him to have this same view?

As for trefl I feel like he was trying to deflect on me when I entered the thread after ignoring me early so I dont think hes a bad lynch. Feel like hes trying to get a lynch on me no now that hes under presure. If thats true your a fool. but trefl is a strong town player i think scotts a better lynch
So I'm scum for being suspicious of you now, and not earlier, for posts that you made after I left, and only saw in the past two hours or so?

And then you insult my play, and then call me a strong town player? You can't have it both ways.
