Happy New Years to all the Americans stateside. Been partying all night but a few comments before I finally crash.

First this whole scumslip business, I still have no idea what you people are looking for or looking at. Onegu, Fidei gave context to how he was reading you, even if the read was ON you, I tried to look for examples using search where people are either making interpretations of these things and of these things as either alignments and the interpretations from both alignments seem to be all over the place.

I'm with Noon with how is Shape scum independent of the scumslip (based on how you phrased post 667), and how is reading you MORE of a scumslip than not reading you?

Scumslips - being misused or misinterpreted by townies on townies
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/493411-newbie-student-mafia-xiv-firefly?page=75#1493
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/494873-battle-of-the-drams-mafia?page=214#4276

Actual scumslip - read wasn't even made on a person
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/484076-assassination-mafia?page=80#1582

No I don't have an example here where scumslips were misused by mafia on townies, but I imagine that there have to have been scenarios where this has happened.

Point is, absent a secondary argument (yes I am aware Noon has one which is something I'll read when I re-examine filters) beating scumslips out of proportion if town (as demonstrated in the examples above) can be unreliable at best and scummy at worst.

The second question regarding Onegu - since I've never played with him before is that is the whole finding scum thing based on scumreads on you - is this something he does as town, mafia or both alignments?

Also Onegu, is your case against GB boiling down to:

(1) the quick town read on Irish
(2) his scumreading/pushing you

Or was there more than that? That was all I could garner from your filter.

Did you have any comments to make regarding his engagement with his scumreads?

So you think Onegu is town? Mderg also?


Yes, I've got a town read on Onegus reaction towards Fideis post, it's not a particularly strong one but not even remotely interested in lynching there. I do have a very strong town read on Mderg, his reads and thoughts mirror mine when catching up quite often, I can understand his reasoning behind almost all of his reads, I'd almost bet the entire game on him being town.

Want to make an agreement Glowing? We lynch Scott today, if he's mafia like I expect you let me tell you where to put your vote tomorrow, if he flips town you can tell me where to place mine.


Page 28.

This is either a big ass mafia slip (which btw, mderg copied his scum slip from me! look at the filter its their.) Or one huge town tell


So it is NAI, basically


idk i read his filter when i catch up if i feel like it tonight.

And just saw scott got lynched.......And no one else voted for kush. Eh shapelog Vs Kush rule must happen.


I'm confused by this?

EBWOP - alright I saw posts 652 and 653.

Have most players who have tried to metaread you typically been scum?

I don't believe in scumslips, I've quoted that because I find hard to believe Onegu would see a slip from fidei but wouldn't from Shapelog.

To add to that, he said "then shape is Mafia too" but just forgot about that and now he is only scum reading me and Fidei


I didn't actually play in Nutcracker, but seeing that Onegu didn't play in Nutcracker do you think it's possible or believeable the Shapelog scumslip would have just gone over his head?

Wait, ignore post 691. I stand corrected. Onegu smurfed that game. That completely negates my last question. That slip/criteria for slip probably should have jumped out at him since it was a game he played in.

In his big reads post, his scumreads are summaries of me and gigas' play put into a scummy light. He latches on to some of my trolly posts and doesn't stop to think "why would scum make such overtly scummy posts"?

The only thing keeping this from moving into policy is that he has a couple of posts where he talks about non-game stuff (#225, #228). If you have time to do that, you have time to play as well. This is how newbie mafia play, imo.

Noon/Kush - This whole filter makes me want to facepalm. He TRs Scott for saying he could "possibly jump" on someone else's read. WTF? I just don't understand this read at all - mafia are the ones who are going to hedge and give weak reads, not town.

He then also prods a bunch of people into giving reads, despite the fact that he himself has given almost no content.
##Vote -- Gigya




Looking at this case - the Onegu bashing/policy lynches is something Fidei has done as both alignments and in pre and post-games. So to me that is NAI.

Regarding the reads on GigyaS, "a filter that is almost entirely devoid of reads".....for someone that has been relatively inactive that could go either way. The bolded that I have for GigyaS read looks reasonable enough to scum for unless you are arguing that he's taking those posts out of context in which case I will go back and mark those pages to read around the filters.

The Noon read is actually slightly more concerning to me because the "possibly jump" part I think you even disclaimed that it was a shitty read/criteria (paraphrasing) and it would seem to me that mafia would try and hide that.

"Woe is me/Day 1".....I remember you getting off a great scumread in Dark Tournament on the player both DoYouHas and myself eventually got lynched (Half the Sky) and considering Fidei was also in that game - I replaced in, so I know -, do you think it's completely unreasonable for him to scumread you when you were clearly more productive in that game, contrasting to here where you go for the straight policy lynch?

Sheeping GB onto KMatt? Wait.....didn't you argue against that? Or at least accuse GB of misinterpreting?

Can you explain this? (bolded) If you read Noon's filter carefully you will see subsequent pushback.

Kinda drunk. not gonna be a very good post but here goes.
scum is in irish gigyas mderg onegu.
I've given varying degrees of townreads to everyone else.

Irish seems like a dude who would make a very townie looking scum. I find the reasoning behind his scumreads/townreads to be unbelievable. I know a statement like that is worthless without backing it up with specifics but that's not happening right now. If he dies, which he very well might if he's town, then that would be work wasted if I post reasons now.

gigyas. all honesty i can't read this guy for shit. He seems scummy to be even when he's town. Dunno but his play seems like it has no creative thought behind it or anything to indicate towniness. No offense gigas I didn't mean that as an insult.

mderg. Always taking the side of you'd think the townie would take: Hard against policy lynches for example. Seems like an upright citizen townie, but his towniness is very surface level.

onegu- really wasn't satisfied with his respond to GB's recent questioning of him. Nothing townie in his filter. Looks like he found something he could call a scumslip then relied on that for a reasoning behind his vote. With no thought to "is it really a scumslip?" "did shape scumslip as well?" etc.


These reads are all pretty shit. I'll verify them and stress them out during d2.

You realize I was mislynched d1 in dark tournament.. so I couldn't have been that productive lol.
I didn't sheep GB onto Kmatt. Actually I townread him eventually. Right then I did I quick read of his filter and understood how someone could think it would be scummy. I was interested in if GB had any not obvious idea of why Kmatt was scummy. That would give me a townread on GB. If someone has a scumread based on reasoning I find interesting or didn't think of, I townread them for that usually.
GB's scumread was actually not really different from the reasonings I was expecting. Although I later townread GB for other reasons. Specifically his scumslip point against Onegu (and other stuff maybe? dont remember).

I hope you can read this post lol. Gnight now.

How was kmatt parroting?
He voted for gb who has no other votes...

How is paroting lynch target Scummy? It's called consolidation. In this post you say you would lynch Scott for everyone else's posts. Isn't that parroting lynch targets?
