D1 calls me mafia, lynches his best friend damdred with me on the wagon. N1 calls me mafia despite voting with him but agrees with me that rayn is mafia-y despite calling me mafia. D2 makes a meta case that rayn is mafia because of rage but only has 1 meta link to XXX mafia and it looks nothing like this game. Then he just afks on that wagon despite there being other wagons and palmar voting rayn for modkill reasons. When asked who LS' scum reads other than rayn are he says he has none. And doesn't consolidate. Despite the fact he thinks rayn is the only mafia and he agrees with my case on rayn and he's voting rayn he still thinks I'm mafia but NOT with rayn, the guy he is voting for. Furthermore, LS has been inconsistent on his reads. He says that palmar is mafia repeatedly but then says he'll lynch both palmar and holyflare despite earlier saying that if rayn is town palmar is mafia. He goes on to say that tw did not spew grack town because the case was shit but begins today saying grack is confirmed town because of spew. LS has a problem of forgetting his own reads and then trying to blend by just copying other people's reads. Lynch him after me. this is his primary case against you and it doesn't feel similar at all. i guess he accusing you of being inconsistent again, that's the only real similarity i can see. am i missing something more? | ||

None of that makes the slightest bit of sense. If there's only one mafia between us then why do I spend my time trying to defend him when I just let him die and get confirmed town? | ||

but HF does that always and to pretty much everyone. it's how sometimes he ends up lynching dumb instead of scum. i think you're kinda omgusing. | ||

he defends TW for missing a joke "full frontal" (w/e the shit that means); when from my experience lacking a sense of humor is more mafia indicative than town. he defends grack from vivax because of last game? he doesn't disagree with vivax that what grack is doing isn't more scum indicative, he just says "don't call him mafia cuz he said terrible things last game too". read as mafia trying to pocket/protect weak town a bit. he prods the new player, which is easy for anyone to do. he calls out PB for sounding wishy-washy....but that makes no sense to me. he has a read on TW and grack from previous games, but not on PB. in the previous game PB was incredibly definitive and made tons of sense pretty much all game long. in this game PB sounds more unsure and makes less sense. it makes me think PB is more likely town, so why does PB sounding dissimilar to last game make him think PB is the same alignment as last game? dunno....pretty much don't like anything of what he has posted. | ||

And every time he has been town. BH makes a good point that you have to try and work out if something is scummy for the person in question, and for LS the stuff that HF pinged out is null. LS' OMGUS drive against HF actually makes me think LS might be town - by reason of the fact that I don't know if LS as Mafia starts pushing HF based purely on OMGUS, who I presume is one of the most experienced players in the game. HF - his reads are thin and I think his LS read is wrong in particular. He has also kept pushing the TW read long after everyone else had sort of agreed and moved on. I think he probably is at a wedding tho, so his style makes sense in that context. I think it's a null-leaning slightly scummy read, but I definitely wouldn't lynch into him at the moment. Apart from the actual AFKers, the two people I'm most on at the moment are TW and Conversation, but for different reasons. We've all pinged out his weird read progression on TS earlier, but then when he finally comes back he comes in and gives two lazy-ass reads on me and ritoky (and yes, I know D1 association reads are garbage, but if one of those flips red later the other could be with them). And Conversation thread enters, leaves for almost a day, then comes back in and posts a huge WoT which basically just says nothing about the game at all. It basically flashes "I'm here and I don't care about the game", which is scumtell 101. In a way it's almost too flagrant, but I'm definitely not willing to give the benefit of the doubt at this stage. re:bolded, is this because you have many town reads? or? cuz i feel like with new players it generally should be the opposite re:LS, what about him backing off the read immediately once i pressured him about it? is that alignment indicative to you? | ||

I'd appreciate some effort into why you think my posts are scummy so I can understand how you think instead of what you and Fidei are doing, which is calling me weird or "scumtell 101" without actually expanding upon it. It feels rather off to me that people would let inactives pass, but rather unconstructed arguments based on feelings (you) can pass as constructive posts. don't worry about them. tell me who you think is town or mafia. | ||

I think it's okay if you are a bad player or a newbie, but I think it's worse for the town environment by throwing your arms up and saying you're a bad player instead of trying to be the best town player you can ability wise i am fine with players being new or bad, i actually tend to read new or bad players relatively well. what i want more of from you is what you think and why. it doesn't have to be big elaborate posts or well constructed thoughts, i just need a window into your brain so i can try to read you. when you type things like "i am glad x and y are reading me town"; normally that would indicate to me that you're more concerned with your image in the thread and how others are perceiving you than you are about finding mafia. and maybe that is the case, i don't have a good enough feel for you yet. but i want less posts like that and more posts like "i think this guy is this alignment cuz x." even if x is 1 sentence or 1 quoted post or some vague feeling in your kidney. if you don't post your train of thoughts in the thread i can never follow you, it will just come off like scattered thoughts or large leaps in logic that are disconnected | ||

fidei has like....almost exact opposite reads of me. dunno what to think about that. reading LS mafia, what else is new for me. btdt has done nothing to change my opinion, still think he is probably mafia. tw doesn't make a whole lot of sense. defending grack for ???? defending grack from spooky ghosts pushing him???? missed joke early. says "mindmeld" then doesn't say what the mindmeld was. mafia pile. grack made a joke while being yelled at by BH, so he gets half a town point; but otherwise he hasn't done jack esp for a 2 page filter. actually i just looked at his filter and i take his half point back cuz he doesn't really have any posts pushing the game forward. BH has been disappointing. i expected RNG -> a play or snowball it into some reads. if that was it, he could be mafia. onegu...flip a coin. | ||

If there are more questions towards me coming from that case, feel free to ask, I'm here. Yes, his reads were wishy-washy at that point, I agree with you. That's my point. My point is that his reads in the previous game were basically never wishy-washy, they were always definitive. So if he is playing the opposite or different from his previous game, then why are you assuming he is the same alignment as the previous game? | ||

Nagging someone to contribute at the end adds to the perception that he's trying to fluff up contributions. Plus I generally find pestering people to post annoying. Also he called me a baddie. It actually wasn't as bad of a post as I thought though because his whole schtick in the next post is that PB is making fluff posts, which is a fair argument. That may be what he meant by super weird in the second line. On June 04 2017 23:41 Grackaroni wrote: HF might be scum for still thinking Fidei is scum. It's hard to be that self-righteous as scum.

I think these posts come off fairly townie and I simply like the way Grack puts them out there and for example how he found something that doesn't make sense in TW yet doesn't use it as an excuse to push him when there's baddies like HF trying to get him lynched. a bh/hf team? you think hf defends a teammate who has contributed this little (BH) this hard on d1? i don't think that aligns with how hf plays mafia. | ||

Scum HF went out of his way hard defending Palmar and trying to lynch LS and SL instead (both town) and that ended up in a foreseeable HF lynch for him. So he basically voluntarily traded himself in resulting in Palmar getting lynched the next day although the outcome would have been the exact same if he didn't. It just made sure we REALLY lynched Palmar cause HF made it look like he was trying to win the game on the spot for both of them. wasn't palmar green checked and right all game....that shit was a travesty | ||

1) he was phone posting at the wedding. this is shitty reasoning, but i got the sense he was so frustrated with rolling mafia that he would have just afk'd through the wedding had he rolled it again. 2) his reaction to one of tube's posts about conv and pb was pretty much identical to my reaction to it. 3) he is pushing LS in a way that doesn't feel like he is pocketing LS or is in a QT with LS 4) he hasn't talked about me much/given reads on me formally, which is how he tends to act toward me as town on day 1 5) he is defending BH, who i feel hf values as one of the few players on the player list with game-solving potential if he tries. as mafia i think he would be content to let BH just die. | ||

i think PB's post about his reaction to the lynch is pretty similar to mine, although him never delivering on his promised reads is meh. he came to the same conclusion i did about the 3 people i think are town because of the lynch and he looks toward the same spot i do for the mafia on the wagon (grack + ls). but when he starts saying things that make tons of sense to me, it's kinda the opposite of why i had him town leaned earlier. btdt played the emo card on me and i am hard pressed to get over that. i think his filter and play isn't particularly townie, but he played the emo card.... conv is certainly not particularly useful at the moment, but i don't get the sense that he is malicious or mafia. i told him "stop doing this and give me reads." and then he immediately produced reads that seemed genuine; so i have a difficult time thinking he's mafia. then vivax....i guess vivax COULD be mafia? but then i been pretty wrong this game. but doesn't vivax just see the runaway train and bus his partner for the nickle or dime's worth of credit he would get? i would have. | ||

I mean the difference between me and you is that I basically had no read on fid, and if you want the real reason for that it is because fid posted shit about london in the community thread so i kinda felt like i should just give the benefit of the doubt that there's shit going on there. while you had a read strong enough to potentially call hf mafia for not having the same read, then proclaimed that it wasn't strong and you were content voting on fid. | ||

The twisted narrative from your second post about me makes me think this is less likely hypocrisy and more likely scum motivated. I would have been willing to vote for Conversion or Prison Break who I both called town earlier in the day. A large part of the reason that Fidei got voted is that he disappeared for a long time and that has a big influence since my reads change relatively frequently. I had a lot of chances to shenanny to somebody else at the end of the day. I defended TW. I defended HF. I defended LS. If I wanted to save Fidei I could have given a defense of him and came out looking fine but I didn't want to lynch Tumblewood. I don't think I did this. What I said was: 1) your read on fid was strong enough that you accused hf of potentially being mafia just for not sharing the same read as you -> then later you claimed to not have a strong read on fid at all. so then why is hf potential mafia for not sharing a weak read of yours? 2) you wanted to lynch onegu minutes before sheeping his read. 3) you wanted to lynch onegu, then pb, then and only after those didn't materialize and there was an obvious tide flocking to fid did you move to fid. to me that indicates that you wanted the shennanie to land on other people first. And regarding "I change my reads frequently" that's really not a good thing sometimes, what have you done for me recently is kinda a crappy heuristic. Sometimes people just do shit that makes them town or mafia forever. | ||

It's another thing to completely ignore him and then piggy back on what Onegu said about me not talking about him. I also didn't include TW and Tubesock who most people gave a read on. then why wasn't it an issue when i quoted it 2 days ago? | ||

"i would expect you as town to realize that you..." is all about image. it says "if you're town you would have considered previous stances before posting" which is literally the opposite of how you play town where you spew your frontal lobe into the thread without a second thought. you're saying i am mafia for being town again. it's w/e over it. | ||

Yes it was, you're taking a question of me trying to understand your thought process and how you got to the headspace you're in so that MAYBE one day if there's a cop with 4 green checks on you I can begin to reconsider your alignment; and rather than just answer it, you're trying to make it sound like an accusation and start a fight with me again. "to be expected" is not antagonistic, it is just reality. I think you're the opposite alignment, and I think you're making conclusions then after the fact constructing narratives to support those conclusions. So it is only natural that I don't understand how you got to where you are since in my opinion it is made up. I did this thing, it is called process. I said "well, i am pretty sure he is fake. i am leaning mafia let me consider this further." "if he was vt what does he have to gain from this?" "i can't think of anything right now, so he is probably mafia." "hey this guy thinks he is vt, hey guy who thinks he is vt what upside is there for vivax to make this play if he is vt?"; guy's response: "fuck you fight me, you're mafia" But like I said you are sucking the modicum of joy I get from this game out of it and I don't feel well enough to deal with that, so I am just going to leave. | ||

In retrospective, the point where he rescinded should've made things clear: why does he rescind in the first place? To save himself? Impossible. So why does he rescind? Because HF claimed blue. Vivax does not have perfect information, so he believes the claim. At this moment, Vivax thinks "fuck, not only have I incorrectly faked a red check, but I have also outed the 2nd blue". So all he can do to save that potential second blue is un-claiming, thus allowing HF to also unclaim - or of course at least not get lynched and survive another night due to Tumblewood-doc being alive. The rescind was a town tell. even if he was town i reject this. | ||

btdt's case doesn't say anything about you not scum reading fid either, it is about lack of follow-up on your reads. he is saying "PB says things then never does anything about it". you didn't vote on fid nor were you actively trying to get people to vote on him like "HEY LYNCH THIS FUCKER HE NEEDS TO DIE NOW!" style even though he was your 2nd scummer. as for flood control, it is less about post count and more that you feel disconnected from the game (at least to me). it's like there's a game going on and then you randomly appear posting a wall of text that is like 30 hours old and half of it is irrelevant now, and then you disappear without much interaction. | ||

He does post starting with conversion first. Meh maybe Im thinking to much about this. But seriously how do people not know this is what BH does. RNG first is always his first thing.... Tumblewood coming in with the attitude was really weird also. Then he calls out tube for focusing on the only thing that happend in the thread at that point, because he calls BH rng nothing... TW gets scum points. @PrisonBreak. What is the difference between a RNG vote and a RNG lynch. IMO they are the same thing. Both give zero info. I would say a RNG lynch gives more info because you see who went along with it when a RNG vote gives you nothing because it is just one person. Town points to Vivax seeing the same thing on TW. To bad we are lynching Vivax... Scum points to Vivax for bitching about Grack posting but not being around. Thats not a scum tell. Good thing we are lynching vivax. Fword dude gets scum points for the calling out of people who posted in the thread but didnt actually comment on things. This is just bitching and not actual scum hunting. LS comments on things with no relevant meaning <3 LS PrisonBreak calling out Fword dude. PrisonBreak getting town points. Fword dude defending his stance. Scum BTDT calling out the newbie. Im a bit meh on it as I actually like PB thoughts. NAI on BTDT though. Fword dude agreeing with BTDT- Yeah I think FWord dude is scum. Everything HF is posting is completely forgettable even though I am still reading it. HF town. Ritoky also forgettable and boring... Conversion makes a large post that says nothing except he wants to learn how to catch mafia. Really a bleh post. Ritoky makes a good post on BTDT. But dislike Fword dude more than BTDT for scum. BH third post isnt pushing is RNG lynch, but his fourth is. Kinda odd he doesnt tack on at the end of his third post that vivax is scum. But NAL. Grack leaves out Fword dude in his list post. But Fword dude has posted much and grack should have a opinion on him but doesnt... Fword dude calls out the other newbie... Love me some PB. Like his posts. I doubt I will ever vote him. Tumble wanting to lynch BH out of nowhere. BLeh Agree with HF, would lynch Tumble. BH drops his Vivax for grack to easy imo... Like BH even I dont know how your RNG works, I just assume its right and you do it. But if I started questioning things I am sure they would be wrong. The grack vote here seems really odd. 2 pages of BH and Grack arguing about RNG and how it works shoot me now... Tubesock makes a great post on the newbies. HF calls this post out for being good. Town for both of them. @Tubesock I am here and I just posted it in thread as I read this thread a write a stream of thoughts on this post.

Quick reasoning, my case on BTDT day 1 + he emo'd me and I didn't want to be fooled by it. Considered switching to grack or LS. Day 2 grack because obvious reasons. | ||

The major problem I have with HF being mafia is that I am like 60% sure he has had a blue read on me for most of the game. And the fact that I was not dying or getting roleblocked after having that feeling from him makes me have severe doubts. HF, you kept saying TW could not be the doctor, which means you had a blue read on someone who was it? | ||

Plus I think with me narrowing the game down so much with checks on players who were probably in mafia's "lynchable" category; I won't be allowed another check. I think ignoring the claims will just have you waking up tomorrow with me dead and an entire phase of TW vs HF. | ||

The other parties with seats are all left/centre parties and so won't agree. The DUP (homophobic/abti abortion/creationist Irish nuts) are the only ones willing to do so and they will absolutely be demanding a lot of their policies will be shoved through. Bear in mind they won't be able to do anything of their wishes if they didn't form this coalition either. Theresa May will remain PM but she lost so much of her party power that people are calling for her to resign because she basically called an election to get more power and ended up with almost no power. I'm happy London almost unanimously voted Labour and saw sense. The rest of the country are a bunch of degenerate cockwombles though. I don't think Theresa May will remain PM for very long, she'll probably resign within the week. I feel like there's tons of intricate things here that I probably should know, but why would she resign? I know she doesn't have the public mandate she was looking for, but for all intents and purposes isn't she still the leader of the majority party? Why would you willingly abdicate power? Or did she lose key members who supported her in the election turnover or? And is there a better conservative alternative? From what I read the next guy up is a douche canoe. | ||

Real US politics attack with strong and stable soundbites. She took her party from a position of absolute power and ran it into a position where there's a "hung parliament" so her party can effectively get nothing they want through the house of commons. Now she's partnered with religious extremists after imploring to fight against religious extremists. I guess I am just too used to America where old white people hold onto power with their arthritic fingers until their dying breath regardless of if they do awful things or have 0 public support or tank their own party. Funny how they targeted young people with negative ads via internet advertising and got absolutely rekt in that demo. Shoulda learned from Obama, hope, change, and free shit is the way to go for the young people! | ||

Conversion I liked some of his posts after I read his filter a bit but his weird reaction to the flip seems odd defending himself about being a team with PB. So ya One of Tubesock and Conversion is my last scum you? I think figuring out you is the key for me to solve the game. So walk me through your read on me and HF respectively, since from what I can gather your TW read is entirely "he's un-cc'd blue" with no further interaction. For me you read me town for examining a past game's filter, then I called you mafia, and you seemingly wavered, then you didn't interact with me forever, and then you said mine was the most believable claim. Is there more depth to it, and what makes mine the most believable? Then explain your hf read over the course of the game, because in your filter you speak a disproportionate amount to hf compared to anyone else in the game, but I never got the sense you committed to a solid read whether that be out of paranoia or? | ||

That bugs me a lot but isn't enough to call him mafia. i could say i have the same doubts about you, how your progression today reads eerily similar to your vivax progression. how, if TW is real, that you've literally non-stop tried to lynch town all game which is exactly how palmar pointed you out last game, how you're clearly the most capable player here of making a fake claim play like this. or i can just vote on the guy who claimed to save himself then spiraled his "confirmed" town status into jack shit. and if that don't work, at least i got auto i am pretty sure. | ||

by John Stuart Mill (1863) Chapter 2 What Utilitarianism Is. A PASSING remark is all that needs be given to the ignorant blunder of supposing that those who stand up for utility as the test of right and wrong, use the term in that restricted and merely colloquial sense in which utility is opposed to pleasure. An apology is due to the philosophical opponents of utilitarianism, for even the momentary appearance of confounding them with any one capable of so absurd a misconception; which is the more extraordinary, inasmuch as the contrary accusation, of referring everything to pleasure, and that too in its grossest form, is another of the common charges against utilitarianism: and, as has been pointedly remarked by an able writer, the same sort of persons, and often the very same persons, denounce the theory "as impracticably dry when the word utility precedes the word pleasure, and as too practicably voluptuous when the word pleasure precedes the word utility." Those who know anything about the matter are aware that every writer, from Epicurus to Bentham, who maintained the theory of utility, meant by it, not something to be contradistinguished from pleasure, but pleasure itself, together with exemption from pain; and instead of opposing the useful to the agreeable or the ornamental, have always declared that the useful means these, among other things. Yet the common herd, including the herd of writers, not only in newspapers and periodicals, but in books of weight and pretension, are perpetually falling into this shallow mistake. Having caught up the word utilitarian, while knowing nothing whatever about it but its sound, they habitually express by it the rejection, or the neglect, of pleasure in some of its forms; of beauty, of ornament, or of amusement. Nor is the term thus ignorantly misapplied solely in disparagement, but occasionally in compliment; as though it implied superiority to frivolity and the mere pleasures of the moment. And this perverted use is the only one in which the word is popularly known, and the one from which the new generation are acquiring their sole notion of its meaning. Those who introduced the word, but who had for many years discontinued it as a distinctive appellation, may well feel themselves called upon to resume it, if by doing so they can hope to contribute anything towards rescuing it from this utter degradation. The creed which accepts as the foundation of morals, Utility, or the Greatest Happiness Principle, holds that actions are right in proportion as they tend to promote happiness, wrong as they tend to produce the reverse of happiness. By happiness is intended pleasure, and the absence of pain; by unhappiness, pain, and the privation of pleasure. To give a clear view of the moral standard set up by the theory, much more requires to be said; in particular, what things it includes in the ideas of pain and pleasure; and to what extent this is left an open question. But these supplementary explanations do not affect the theory of life on which this theory of morality is grounded- namely, that pleasure, and freedom from pain, are the only things desirable as ends; and that all desirable things (which are as numerous in the utilitarian as in any other scheme) are desirable either for the pleasure inherent in themselves, or as means to the promotion of pleasure and the prevention of pain. Now, such a theory of life excites in many minds, and among them in some of the most estimable in feeling and purpose, inveterate dislike. To suppose that life has (as they express it) no higher end than pleasure- no better and nobler object of desire and pursuit- they designate as utterly mean and grovelling; as a doctrine worthy only of swine, to whom the followers of Epicurus were, at a very early period, contemptuously likened; and modern holders of the doctrine are occasionally made the subject of equally polite comparisons by its German, French, and English assailants. When thus attacked, the Epicureans have always answered, that it is not they, but their accusers, who represent human nature in a degrading light; since the accusation supposes human beings to be capable of no pleasures except those of which swine are capable. If this supposition were true, the charge could not be gainsaid, but would then be no longer an imputation; for if the sources of pleasure were precisely the same to human beings and to swine, the rule of life which is good enough for the one would be good enough for the other. The comparison of the Epicurean life to that of beasts is felt as degrading, precisely because a beast's pleasures do not satisfy a human being's conceptions of happiness. Human beings have faculties more elevated than the animal appetites, and when once made conscious of them, do not regard anything as happiness which does not include their gratification. I do not, indeed, consider the Epicureans to have been by any means faultless in drawing out their scheme of consequences from the utilitarian principle. To do this in any sufficient manner, many Stoic, as well as Christian elements require to be included. But there is no known Epicurean theory of life which does not assign to the pleasures of the intellect, of the feelings and imagination, and of the moral sentiments, a much higher value as pleasures than to those of mere sensation. It must be admitted, however, that utilitarian writers in general have placed the superiority of mental over bodily pleasures chiefly in the greater permanency, safety, uncostliness, etc., of the former- that is, in their circumstantial advantages rather than in their intrinsic nature. And on all these points utilitarians have fully proved their case; but they might have taken the other, and, as it may be called, higher ground, with entire consistency. It is quite compatible with the principle of utility to recognise the fact, that some kinds of pleasure are more desirable and more valuable than others. It would be absurd that while, in estimating all other things, quality is considered as well as quantity, the estimation of pleasures should be supposed to depend on quantity alone. If I am asked, what I mean by difference of quality in pleasures, or what makes one pleasure more valuable than another, merely as a pleasure, except its being greater in amount, there is but one possible answer. Of two pleasures, if there be one to which all or almost all who have experience of both give a decided preference, irrespective of any feeling of moral obligation to prefer it, that is the more desirable pleasure. If one of the two is, by those who are competently acquainted with both, placed so far above the other that they prefer it, even though knowing it to be attended with a greater amount of discontent, and would not resign it for any quantity of the other pleasure which their nature is capable of, we are justified in ascribing to the preferred enjoyment a superiority in quality, so far outweighing quantity as to render it, in comparison, of small account. | ||

the mechanics behind it are simple, you have no confirmed town which means all players to some degree are question marks. to make the most informed decision possible you reduce the maximum number of question marks. lynching me would have reduced 1 question mark and not lost you a confirmed town. thus you should always lynch me. but hey, don't listen to the guy telling you how to play town properly. | ||

sorry for playing you so hard early conv, but when some guys is over the top nice to you (as a new player) on this site which skews a bit more abrasive it usually means they have a motivation hidden behind their dagger teeth. you did pretty well all things considered though, you made yourself appear pretty unimpeachably town which is the 2nd most important part of being VT. | ||
