Looking back over it I think I'm comfortable dropping my scumlean on GB. With that said: ##vote GiygaS Can you also walk me through what in your head made you drop that scumlean on GB? That's about the only thing not clear in the filter. I can see the evidence threshold being reasonable of an argument for a newbie who doesn't know what he's doing to make. I can see this quote: On December 30 2015 09:49 Kmatt wrote: While that seems like an effective tactic, I really can't like using it as town since that fits "make posts that stir up trouble without actually contributing to the thread" to a T. Not five minutes after I toss my scumread... If you really do have an argument against me, let's get it out into the open. I don't think there's anything to lose by hiding information from all three of us in here right now. Being a reasonable amount of scepticism towards someone for someone who is inexperienced with forum mafia. This becomes more certain when you take that against GB's lack of (direct) followup per his filter. | ||

(1) Irishbound's case/explanation on the Noon/Scott association (2) Fidei and his opening reads (3) Noon's posturing (for lack of better words) on GB (4) Scott and how he looks from your perspective (5) any other issues - EXCEPT Onegu who I feel is bordering the closest to a policy lynch - that you think are deserving of the thread attention? | ||

Look at my post again. I'm suggesting the problems in the POST THAT HE HAS lies in his wording and context. I am already aware he CAN be a low activity poster, I'm arguing that what he DOES have is scum indicative given the context in the thread. | ||

There is nothing wrong with that basis. | ||

I mean if his play style is that changing then i be more incline to think the afk is NAI then AI. idk i like to see him post more as with GiygaS Khan. Again, I can't speak for others but Scott being afk is NOT why I'm scumreading him. | ||

But yet it is funny to me that afterwards, when he posts, it generates more content then the tatic did. And a quick skim up the thread shows that he is deflecting a Kmatt read. I really starting to have probs. with this again. Hes deflecting to much IMO. Well like I said before his initial explanation for a reaction test made sense the lack of followup or conclusion on KMatt's responses does not. Or lack of engagement to resolve the scumread. It doesn't make sense from a town perspective. | ||

Alright I'll continue catching up an then I'll post my reads line. I can see where you are coming from especially since Scott's reasoning to townread KMatt on taht explanation was poor, plus saying what he said there "I could jump on this" it doesn't line up with ending up at a null read, not to mention I had already posted other material that Scott could have looked at. but to be fair that is a separate issue that he may have neglected to look at as either alignment. Policy lynching is something I have seen coming out of both alignments to be fair, I know it was the case in Dark Tournament, townies wanting to lynch other townies but I think those townies had been playing all game. | ||

There was no followup there and his looking to GB to find a reason to scumread KMatt (probably this in conjunction with the white knighting argument is my guess from his filter). There's two futher points against Noon - the lack of followup to KMatt's response on the white knighting and using some really bad association (namely if GB is town then KMatt must be scum) to try and get where he needs to be (post 364). The scum motivation looks like he's reaching for that scumread unless he was not satisfied with the response but there is no such indication in his filter AND subsequent posting. | ||

So basically what I know of Fidei's meta is that as town he tries to solve the game, will whine about spam and is generally a low volume poster since he's a laywer who works ridiculous hours. There are two reads that I have not been able to follow easily (I'm seeing a double standard between Shapelog and GigyaS reads but I do want to make sure I'm not misunderstanding those reads). I don't agree entirely with his initial scott read, partially because I'm sceptical of meta and he used a game (NSM 14 where scott was high activity) where he took a town trait and compared it to here. But looking into the substance - or lack of substance in scott - moving to null would make sense. There is not enough solving of the game from him and I cannot contest what he's saying on Onegu as a policy lynch, but he has not returned. I tentatively have a null to scumlean on him largely because I couldn't follow the GigyaS/Shapelog reads but I was going to engage him when he returned to the thread and would hopefully comment on the key issues that have arisen since. | ||

Noon/GB/Scott Further fleshing out: Scott/Fidei/GigyaS Last resort/policy lynch: Onegu For GigyaS there was one post that I felt was unlikely to come from scum, but considering where he's not been in thread for >24h now, getting a mindset read with all that has happened is I think pretty important with a few of the concerns brought up. | ||

Scott, I have questions for you. First your scumread on GigyaS. (1) His third post admitting his joke was forced and admitting he didn't know what to say. (post 214/218) Why does that come from scum? (2) He has posted and made reads since. You are saying his filter is (still presumably) worse than yours (worse as in less content? how?) How is what he's done from your perspective scummy? Admittedly I agree with mderg etc, moving Noon up at the time you did is a weak/poor defence, but I need to see what Noon's posted since. I'm not experienced enough (5th game on TL, 4 of which were newbies, and no other forum experience for those who don't know me) to know what a pocket is or what categorically qualifies as a pocket. | ||

Scott looking at your latest list post, why was the case poor? Is it because you are townreading KMatt or because you thought TheCow was legitimately making the case based on scummy and/or questionable points? | ||
