Yeah so...

I still want Damerion.

Holyflare is still wrong. In his world, the meta read was developed on the fly during the course of this game, where clearly as Damerion himself admitted he compiled it after his last game with Damdred. Using a meta read that you believe to be true is something that any scummer can do. The tunneling to the exclusion of the global game does not resemble ANY of his three prior town games. At all. (And honestly he reminds me of an old player and friend here who played scum just like this, but that's neither here nor there).

More to the point, as town I would expect an attempt to use a new meta read, but I would not expect this level of surety this early. The 'like' bullshit that holyflare latched onto so hard is not something that you could reasonably expect to get a read on that early in the game.

Rather than using a meta read as a tool, Damerion used it as a bludgeon, and the holyflare cheerleading oh he's amazing and always right feels dirty to me. I recognize that this doesn't make holyflare scum, though; he's not an honest player as either alignment and will say what he can to get his lynch. So whatever.

Damerion should be the lynch. If only because I need to redeem myself for being such a boob yesterday. But also because he's scum. Not because he was wrong. Because of how he used the meta case and ignored everything else. He's clearly a good town player so he gets no 'oh maybe he's new, overconfident and overeager' from me.

I'm going to trust vets and coached newbies to know what to do if they're vig here. Damerion's the lynch tomorrow.

Going out with Lex for awhile. I'll look at the rest of the game hopefully tonight.

I don't believe he created it this game at all? I believe he had it and as mafia wouldn't use it and certainly wouldn't think to use it.

rsoultin,

In retrospect, I would like to hear HF thoughts on my damdred observations.

Whilst I dont like HF voting damdred for behaviour instead of motive; it is also arguable I could only discern motive through a vote on behaviour.

[...]
nice attempt at a strawman though


And then you neglected the rest of the game where I elaborated on damdred and used your exact points to further my case, that he was appealing to emotions and trying to get people to unvote him based on that.

Yet you've just highlighted your lack of reading of the game and lack of care for even reading into the top people you want to purge. Don't believe a town mocsta would do that.

I had to read your filter twice to even know what you were talking about.

Then I realised, it could only be this sole whining-to-yourself post
"I don't understand why it's so fucking hard to lynch damdred when he's literally doing shit all and makes a post to appease people and fucks off again. It's really quite simple that this is nothing like town damdred at all."

Kudos again on the strawman and ad hominem approach.

After rereading filters, I conclude that I suck at life. But I have a really imperfect set of reads as to where I'm at now, so yeah.

Town
Rels - deadline, general play, don't think this needs much explanation
Twatty - organic posting while still focusing on scumreads, active until afk after 24 hours into D1

Townish
KSC - we see the game similarly. could be pocketed, but I'll worry about that later
mocsta - eat your heart out. i can't say that I'm close to certain, but i just instinctively like the tone of his posts

Maybe Town?*
mderg - he took a solid stand, and I like his interactions. need to see more from him
holyflare - i'm still waffling hard on him. but part of why i think that he could be town is he actually has backed off a few arguments. if darthfoley ever flips scum i'd revisit him hard

Null
darthfoley - can see things in his filter leading me both ways. he's more calm than i remember him in his town game, which makes me want to townread players generally but maybe points toward scum on him specifically
btdt - find the start scummy, but the fucking off at eod actually slightly towny...he'd probably be lower on the list if damdred weren't so adamant about him being town :/

Scummish
Kmatt - despite liking his tone in the beginning, he was around during the day saying he didn't think damdred was scum but never laid down a vote, just talking randomly about twatty
prplhz - i don't like how he wasn't following the game, said he'd follow me and then didn't follow me...kind of weak because damdred and i both could have voted btdt to save damdred (and i would have if i wasn't such a boob at eod) but a scum darthfoley and town btdt would make this really suspicious

Scum
Damerion - laid down his meta 'hero' case on damdred for the first time after four posts from damdred, and disappeared in the midst of my pressuring him on how he'd come to the meta and what about damdred's play he was claiming was 'static'...add that to my post above on why damerion is 100% our lynch d2




So, yeah. I'm a little disappointed that it didn't shake out clearer for me, and possibly I should have hf in a purgatory category of endless waffle all his own. But I think lynching into Damerion, kmatt and prplhz will yield probably two scum. Kmatt seems more likely if btdt, darthfoley and damdred are all town, prplhz if darthfoley is scum.
