Sup, I'll be back in a bit.

scott is more meta. He is a pretty poor scum player that has a hard time playing as scum. But this game his thoughts are easy to follow, and he had a couple of long posts that were pretty logical:

I'd like to hear more from Jealous, in #213, it sounds like a light scum read or suspicion on Stutter - but the way they phrase it as a question because they are confused makes me think they are hesitant on the read, just maybe? Not a scum read just yet. I don't crystallize or publicize my reads until I have a decent catalog of posts on which to base them, because I feel like weak pressure and baseless reads are harmful to town because they lack substance, have a higher probability of being wrong, and can lead to ML. I am just trying to get a feel for the players I am not familiar with and see what kind of person is behind the keyboard, why they say what they say, and thus look for inconsistencies in-game. So, Jealous, I want you to explain your stance on Stutters' answers to your questions.

I'm working another 2 hours, but if anyone has any questions fire away. No comment on the blue stuff, scum can try to figure it out on their own. Okay - I've re-read this thought about three times - and I think I get it. The thing I do like about it is Stutters believes in his find of lack of reading. I don't think he'd be so daring as mafia.

I liked that last bit you wrote in the post. I feel the same way but I tend to be impulsive and pressurize my way into getting reads as a natural reaction when I begin playing through RVS which has lead to some results in getting activity in the game which is nice. I still have yet to see the point in the RVS in general but noticed the lack of presence of it so far here. Would like to hear the views of how you perceive RVS/what kinds of points given. This may not lead to alignment indicative posts, but gives me an understanding of where people's heads are at this point in the game.
That being said, I like how confident tone in that post, it could be from a very well seasoned player, but normally see caution amongst scum at the beginning, so I am definitely light town reading Jealous based on the #233, I also like how there is consistency on the behaviour reasoning for the post I questioned which again feels like they are not frabricating a reasoning.
Please note, my reads tend to have a dynamic flow as the game state changes so take it with a grain of salt. There's a few things that bug me about this post (besides his failure to quote, which is one) It's so pronouny it's a bit difficult to know who he's even talking about - especially if you get into another day and do a filter re-read. The second would be the "Please note, my reads tend to have a dynamic flow as the game state changes so take it with a grain of salt." which in theory any one would do. It gives me weird vibes.

Okay so here's my thoughts on what I have read up on so far:
town leans on
Xalador (gave my reasons earlier)
pmtc (the discussion and decoding Danaler's alignment with Xalador felt incredibly nature/smooth + points on scum hunting)
Calix (earlier interactions = bit blurry on reasoning though other than criticism on stutter just nice impression since it gave me stuff to work with to get out of gross RVS)
small town lean on
Danaler (gave my reasoning earlier = based on tunnelling on Lunar)
DoYouHas (analysis on myself I guess? kinda a weak reasoning)
Unsure on
Jealous (confident tone which felt townie to me, abuses newb card in #366 rubs me the wrong way. Good point by Rels that alarms go off on the lack of scum hunting)
Stutters (still need more on current game state thoughts)
Slight Scum read
Lunar (commented on how I didn't like how he gave into the pressure by players, shakey confidence, but didn't like the filler jab I pointed out in #357 and #359 - don't like meta tells to be that conceret)
the rest, nothing really stood out in my backreading. Although I disagree with a bit of this list - SEQ is providing a list here. (IE Jealous & Rels) Xatalos is a really spammy player but nothing has set me off on him or anything yet. Stutters, I feel it's a little OMGUS with a couple good and a few bad posts, to be honest. Just under null is where I'd put SEQ.

Calix to finish on Stutters, Stutters had a couple of posts at the beginning of the game where he was pretty relaxed, when in my experience he is super serious as scum. In general anyway, relaxed posts usually means town, and I found that it is even more true with Stutters. In particular this post at a time where he was being pressured was pretty townie to me:

It's not like you got any smarter in between then and now. I'm older and thus wiser. The findings are TBD btw. Rest assured, I have top men on it. If you had to guess, why do you think I did it?

Also I'm going out to drink so EOD is going to be fun xD
My lynch list is as follows:
Would not lynch:
SEQ/ Xatalos/ ptmc/ Rels (they are townie/ decently active/ contributing. Lynching actives on D1, especially now, is suboptimal)
Superbia (replacement or modkill incoming)
Might lynch:
Skynx/ DYH/ Scott - For doing nothing
Jealous - He's such a wet blanket that you could fill a water tank
If your name isn't on this list then you're here as well
Would lynch:
Lunatic/ Daneler/ Stutters
|
Hm. Well, it's not like DYH/scott/Stutters did anything scummy scummy which is always a plus.
|
I'll reread with Rels' posts in mind when I get back.
Looks like Superbia is here. Still wouldn't lynch though so my post remains unchanged.

What are your thoughts then, Rels? Lunatic is probably scum and needs to die. You, Calix, scott, ptmc, DYH, Dan, Stutters have all done something that made me think you could be town. Jealous is still unable to comment on anything. He's my second preferred lynch. The others are null. DanelerH is town, really?
He has questionned Lunatic pretty hard with the few posts he did. Whatever Lunatic alignement is, Dan's questionning is townie to me; if Lunatic is scum, scum!Dan would maybe bus, but maybe not pressure him like this; if Lunatic is town, it's weird to push a mislynch so hard.
Basically, I think his Lunatic push is townie 'cause he's a newbie and scum!newbs are usually more shy.

Calix did you find Queen's posts townie or are you giving him a pass just because he posted a lot ? I didn't read anything that made me think he was town, and he is claiming to not be a newbie so activity alone isn't a good measure to him.
|
Basically my lynch list is, in order of preference:
Lunatic
Jealous
Skynx/Queen
Superbia would be a coinflip & can be a great player so I'm 100% OK waiting for him to do something.

Hm. Maybe. I got a bit more of the impression that he reacted to being called wishy-washy by taking some stance and just pushing it (Lunatic's odd townread on Stutters) to avoid that criticism? In any case, I guess you could call it a towny action on its own.

Yeah, not really much point in lynching Superbia. He can be pretty good from what I remember.

It's not a legit contradiction or anything but I'd like Stutters to flesh out his reasoning here. [quote] What makes you think Stutters is the most townie player in the thread? Are you claiming to be one of the dumb-sounding people? Fourth part is just weird. It states the obvious ("mafia are informed and will try to look townie") but it does it in a hyperbolic manner. Where are you going here? If you think mafia are leading the discussion then that implies that you suspect players and this is something you did not put down in favour of a town-read. Who could fall under this category of 'leading mafia' in your eyes, if anyone? Stutters is obvious town for me at least, I can understand why you wouldn't notice but I have played with him 4 times in a row and I'm pretty sure he is town. Please explain Well I don't want to day 1 because of reasons to be disclosed at a later date. He is not going to be lynched today at the very least.

I'm a bit confused... What was the point/conclusion of this post? That he noticed my pressure of being so wishy-washy and switched to tryhard (sr?) mode? And does this make him scummy or what? How does it relate to his first post? Maybe it's not "entirely bad", but still the least towny way to start the game from what I've seen.

How did he go from the first post (neutralish?) to somewhat scummy... Because his attitude changed to tryhard afterwards? I mean Show nested quote +
It's not technically a role claim, but it's certainly something unnecessary to say. Why would your first sentence be the equivalent of "I'm not a Mafia."? While it's nothing definite, it seems rather odd to me.
This at first feels neutral territory thing, questioning the entry, posing out something unnecessary from it however it is actually nothing at all. The entire thing is purely nai with everyone being capable of saying all sorts of stupid stuff like "hey 1st post tr me plx ty xoxo" at beginning of the game and we just laugh it off. How he went about making that whole post was very triggering for me, then i saw the post about Lunatic and I'm like "ok this guys is literally trying to find absurd reasons to sr ppl".
He said this later. Still a bit confusing, but I think he meant that DanelerH was throwing suspicion around with bad reasoning or something like that.

I have a bit of time in the morning to pop in. I actually don't mind the activity as much as I usually would because the posting isn't just a bunch of useless spam and it's much easier to catch up/ reread stuff. [quote] Just to pop in with my two cents on this matter. Meta is good for establishing what is NAI for a player. (e.g., how often they vote or if they talk in a particular way) but I agree that a lot of people, myself included at times, use it as a substitute for analysis. I'm not familiar with many people here (I've only really played with Skynx/ Superbia/ Jealous before) and I'd like to keep it that way so that my analysis isn't skewed by some subjective interpretations of how XYZ played in a game like, 486973 years ago. Only exception is if it's a bad player who has pronounced differences between their town/ scum game that means they make themselves obvious or some shit. So if we could keep the "X is scum/ town due to meta" talk down to a minimum then that'll be lovely. As far as initial impressions go, I town-lean Jealous (this is mainly because we were posting similar things at approximately the same time when we were questioning Stutters so he's more likely to be coming from the same mindset as myself) Ambivalent on Daneler. I didn't like his entrance because he was using someone else's words to put forth his opinion and then commented on something that looks odd but his follow-up made sense. Stutters has done some questionable things with his claims to want to generate discussion. These two posts struck me as strange: [quote] Here he says that he was reaction-testing. NAI by itself but the fact that he capitulated so quickly makes me skeptical. Scum are more likely to shy away from their actions in this manner compared to town (who would be more confident in their ability to defend themselves) because they don't want too much attention. [quote] Here he notes that people are likely to discuss his posts. Again, totally normal thing to say by itself, but what I don't like is the fact that he notes most of the possibilities before anyone can actually talk about him...since this limits opportunities for discussion...which goes against his stated aim of getting reactions and thus starting conversation.

Well, I kind of agree with the argument - that DanelerH was latching on to existing pushes and added not-so-good reasons of his own. But the Lunatic push was a bit different in the sense that he actually did something original there (pushing Lunatic for new answers), so it's not so bad as I thought earlier. Conclusion: ??? :D
|
Mainly I meant the argument about Stutters town-claiming = fishy when I said "added not-so-good reasons of his own".

Dunno. It's pretty close to a coin-flip as to what alignment DanelerH is for me atm.
