Why was his play neutral to you? Specifically, what posts, what actions, etc.


He had a few reads, but nothing that great, which shows that he was atleast trying to look town, he hasn't pushed any case really really hard like some of the other people who I have stronger town reads on.

Anyway, on to my current thoughts on the game and my reads. I'm gonna talk a little bit about everybody and then zero in on the two I mentioned earlier.

DarthPunk - probably town. For some reason I don't feel quite as strongly about this as I did earlier, but I would still be pretty dag surprised if he flipped scum.

austinmcc - town. Thinking about the game critically. Not a lot else to say about him.

Z-Bo - I think is town. Earlier today my read had waned a little, because I thought maybe I made too much of his thinking the same about keirathi as I did. But he's looking at my case critically which I like.

iamp - probably town, but a bit weirder for me, because I've been thinking he's town for the whole game but he seemed to get on my case quite quickly, which I don't like. This is in large part ameliorated by the fact that I know he's been kicking himself for NMM3 for not going after me properly.

Keirathi - I think is town by process of elimination. I explained why earlier but the way he both explained and backed off Z-Bo really softened my read.




Hapahauli the Hypocrite

Hapahauli is a new, but accomplished player. He's capable of strong play, and in his only (?) scum game as practically a total newb played a convincing game. And he's hoodwinked you this game.

His reads:

Hapa is a hypocritical motherfucker. He accuses me of making mainly only town-reads but he's done exactly the same fucking thing, and I'm the one who's scum for it? No siree. The only difference is that he was actually around to flip-flop a bit at times when I wasn't around.

I go off to play some TF2 and the thread blows up - sweet!

Regarding DP

If I'm getting his logic correctly, he used "role" instead of "allignment" when questioning Draz because scum will somehow be under more pressure if they fakeclaim later, correct?

Well it doesn't make sense, but it's not scummy. The fact that he's sitting here and earnestly explaining incomprehensible logic away makes me think he's town tbh.

Regarding Draz

I coached Drazak in two newbie games, so I feel I should say something about his meta/playstyle. Drazak got mislynched in both his games (pretty early) for lurkiness/wishy-washyness as town. Nothing he's done is alignment indicative so far. I will say he's shown much more interest in this game than his previous games FWIW. Nothing to make a read on him yet.


Like even if they are 1% less likely to fake claim why the hell not? There is absolutely no difference either way but I thought that this way May have some small advatage of the other so I chose that way. I honestly don;t see what is so difficult to understand about this. It is not as if that scenario needs to occur or if it is even likely. I thought it may be the better play out of two otherwise equal options. So I chose it. I am baffled that no one understands that.

geez.


The point that people are trying to make is that it makes no difference. Scum aren't going to be deterred (or even remember) something like this. Anywho, I think it's best to agree to disagree here. It gave me a town read on you anyway so cool.

Nao off to bed - peace out folks.

This drazak kid falls into the category of saying such dumb stuff that he must be town is what im thinking. I remember from liquid city and my newbie games that saying dumb stuff is not a scum tell and in fact it usally means the opposite. Also i cant imagine this game where there are 2 scum and the player list that we have that drazak would continue to say dumb stuff like he has so i would have to say town for him.


Oh, and Idunno if I'd go THAT far. Mafia are capable of saying stupid things as well, though I do think he's town based on his interest levels. The question is whether he maintains his activity or not.


There's a quick vote-unvote of iamp when iamp responded to him. He votes for vader, and he's null-leaning town on Keirathi (this is just going through his filter). He was also very briefly scummy on austin until austin made a post and then he was immediately unscummy on him.

Starting to realize from my last post that Z-Bo could have read Kei's stuff much different than I. 180'ing the read here and calling him town (I DO WAT I WANT) - dropping the contradiction, everything else in his filter pretty much makes sense from a town perspective - willingness to jump on multiple people, making several consecutive reads and playing reactionary.



More town-reads.

##Vote Vaderseven

The only players who haven't given me some reason to think they're town are v7, drazak, and marv.


And finally votes for vader, just like I did.

Actually for all his doing this and doing that, the reasons I gave for voting vader were stronger than his.

What Hapahauli is actually doing is 'getting involved' but without any actual results, apart from town town town town vote vader. It's a whole nonsense facade of activity to hide the fact he's not making proper reads. At least I fucking pursued mine.

Oh, and we want to drop meta on this? This is his filter in Rock Band: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=369250&user=47519 Look at how much more he jumps around with his votes, and unlike this game, how he's willing to revisit past votes and vote them again (as opposed to the brief and meaningless vote flirtations here). Like seriously, I lost count of the number of times Hapa was everywhere with his vote, in distinct contrast to his play here. He's picking and choosing to try to make me look bad, but he's neglecting himself.

So, that being said, we come to his iamp and marvellosity reads. I already attacked him heavily for his iamp case here:

The gist of it is that Marv's posting is really detached from this game, and is something I never see in his town games, but very frequently in his "lazier" scumgames.

Iamperfection also has this golden post here:

You are grasping at straws. I read the thread on my phone and its day 1 and you think what I have posted the past like hour males me super scum?

yes i think refusal to give reads on players is bullshit and its scum behavior.

Same goes for you Keirathi.

It's super fucking easy to say "that's scum behavior!" But is it? What would you say if you lynched me and I flip town? "Oh, he was playing scummy. He deserved it!"?

i would hold a candle light vigil in your honor if you flipped town.

i think its a moot point to keep hammering this point. you even said yourself its a terrible mindset that has gotten you lynched in the past. also its concerning that you called out for it in gsl I.

...where he basically calls Kei scum outright on Day 1 yet keeps his vote on v7 the entire day. I'm also sure I'm not mis-interpreting his "candle-light vigil" comment since he clarified his scumread on Kei here:
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=376602&currentpage=31#607

Also, I noticed that he had an "FOS" on me right after the lynch deadline, but has done nothing so far to push his read, despite me not posting in the thread at all in the last ~16 hours or so.

He's also just really really sure about Draz being town, which is odd to me. I know I had a town read on Draz before, but so clearly declaring him town is completely unjustified in light of his complete absence from the thread after early D1.


Hapa, you've gravely misrepresented what happened in the thread. Like Kei the strongest point looked to be the vader/kei thing. So I dug through his filter to look for how hard he was going at either.

Seriously though i think that saying your gonna do something and not doing it is one of the worst things you can do. Its a stalling tactic and i DEMAND vaderseven get in here and fast preferably .

I'm not entirely sold yet. He did the exact same thing as town in GSL 1. "Hey guys, I'll post my reads later when I get home" and then disappeared until 10 minutes before the deadline and claimed doc at the last second :o

It's a stupid thing to do, but particularly for him, I don't think that necessarily makes him scummy.

Until he comes and posts something more substantial, he's a null'ish read, for me.


bullshit

he is scum for what he has done in this game. his posts are basically all talking about himself and he barely commented on anything else

Also dont you think he would learn from his failure from last game and wouldn't do what he did. V7 is scum for his actions in this game.

The spoiler above contains the most pertinent posts regarding vader and Keirathi up to the post that you quote as 'golden'. iamp is pushing vader pretty hard for not contributing anything, and only towards the end, does he start pushing Keirathi for the same reason:

"Same for you Keirathi"

Keirathi then asks iamp, "what would you do if I flipped town?" and iamp responded with his candelight vigil comment. The comment was not, as I read it, a statement of certainty, on its own, of how scummy he found Keirathi. It was a direct response to a question which... how are you supposed to answer? If you asked me what would I do if I lynched you and you flipped town, what exactly would you be expecting me to say in this situation?

vader was clearly iamp's main scumread through day 1, and this is clear to anyone looking at his filter with any sort of critical, or even just browsing, eye. The fact that you're representing otherwise is downright scummy and I want an explanation.


The whole case is nonsense. I zeroed in in particular on his total misrepresentation of iamp's reads, which was just malicious, and he'd almost gotten away with it until I brought it up. The rest of the case is such a stretch as well. iamp having a strong read on drazak for dodgy reasons is pretty consistent with the way iamp plays the game and Hapa knows this too. It's a really bad case pushing bad suspicion. It's really scummy.

On October 24 2012 08:13 Hapahauli wrote:
Anywho, I want to comment on Marv's suspicions on me:

My town meta is really really inconsistent at times. In particular, I'm good for making 2-3 horrifically bad cases in the early game - mostly because I post without proof-reading and I read filters faster than I should (confirmation bias ahoy). Now marv and I have played in several games, and he's been witness to these cases of mine over the last few months. It blows my mind that marv thinks I'm suspicious based on my iamperfection case - he of all people should be familiar with my town meta, yet he thinks I'm scummy for some reason.

However, while I'm good at making the occasionally bad case/point, I'm pretty confident in this one (as well as my iamperfection case, just not on that one point any more). I think it's out there for the town to see how different marv is this game.


Here he's using his own meta to try to cover up his bad case. No, the case on iamp was a forgery and he's just hiding behind the fact that he's made bad cases before to cover this one up. Incidentally, the only mini I played with hapa (i think?), rock band, he didn't make any blatantly bad cases. So there we go. Comparing a bad case in a 9 player mini past day 1 to casting around on day 1 in full-sized normals is... bad meta defence.

His case on me is extremely convenient and he's pushed it well, mostly. He's noticed I'm not playing up to my usual strength and he's taking the opportunity to try to take down a strong townie without having to waste a night-kill on me. The problem is, he's not demonstrated at all how I'm playing scummily this game, he's just gone to town on meta and left it at that. And the rest of you fell right into it :/ For a case based solely on meta, he's not leaving me any outs:

On October 24 2012 09:39 Hapahauli wrote:
I already addressed the rest of that post previously.

You still haven't shown me how you are capable of this behavior as town. I'm convinced that your filter can't come from town-Marv.

But I'm not expecting you to disprove my case. Are you town? Stop saying you're "trying" and convince me. Dump your reads, give the town some good stuff, and there's a small chance I'll reconsider.

Also, I'm curious if you still think I'm scum? Because that earlier "scum-Hapa" bravado of yours disappeared real quick.


Oh, there's a small chance you'll reconsider your meta-only case? tyvm.

On October 25 2012 05:30 Hapahauli wrote:
Oh also I should probably talk about marv's "motivation" for giving so many town reads - the thing is, he can always retract those reads w/out any problems. For example, he was slightly town on Drazak, and all of a sudden finds him scummy now. Declaring people town doesn't matter if you aren't strong about it. Marv just weakly declares a bunch of people town while pursuing scumreads. Big difference.



This is manipulation; this is putting me in a lose-lose situation. Reads fucking change as town and it's ludicrous to even insinuate otherwise. Of course reads change. Does anyone have the same reads on Day 3 as they do Day 1? Town reads grow stronger, or they nullify, or they turn into scumreads. It's the nature of the game. But he's painting it as a scummy action. THAT is what it scummy, not changing your reads. Especially if you can see my thought process behind it. I think some people are probably town while pursuing scumreads? You don't fucking say.

Overall then: Hapa's playing a pretty clever fricking game, and he's got you lot going with him. He's an outrageous hypocrite with his 'marv has townreads' accusation when he's been much the same, with just a couple of little hops in the middle of big events (when I was away). His case on iamp totally misrepresents the thread and his case on me contains no scummy actions from this game. He's not actually picking anything out from anyone that's scummy in this game. His whole play today has been backing me into a corner; "when marv flips scum" over and over, and stuff like the quote there which doesn't give me any outs if I'm a townie.

The reason lots of us are having trouble making scumreads is because this fucker is one of the scum and he's not been giving us anything obvious to go on. Hapahauli is scum.




drazak the piggybacking sorta-hypocrite

So yes, I think I've been wrong on drazak. *All* his play today has been simple bandwagoning. How nice for him to have an easy, long, nice-looking case to piggyback off.

And the meta evidence? Now, I know a lot of you have both played, observed, or talked to me a lot. But drazak? What does he know of my play? Has he gone and looked at my meta for himself? There's been no evidence that he has. He's blindly gone along with a meta case that's designed to incriminate me with no critical thought on it himself.

Sorry sorry, I fell asleep last night watching some burn notice, V7 saying he'd post and then not is pretty serious stalling. I'd like to take a bit more of a look at keir but I think I'm going to part a vote on V7 so that he must reply when he returns, I feel that it's certainly been long enough to be after work for him. it's been 16 hours.

##Vote vaderseven


So is this a "I think you're scum" vote or a "pressure to post" vote?

I push him to explain his vote on vader, and I even explicitly ask him if he thinks he's scum. He totally dodges the question and doesn't definitively answer. He's jumping on wagons without having to justify why the wagon he's on is scum.

As a small aside, I can see him and Hapa together quite nicely. Hapa could have told him to go at me aggressively, which he has - but along side this he's been ignoring the questions about my play this game. Obviously this is just connection and what I have to say stands for itself, but it makes sense to me.

I think drazak is scum. The read isn't as strong as with Hapa but he's both bandwagony, without explanations, and he often evades questions that might help others develop his reads on him - he misses the questions, or he's afk, while at the same time berating others for not posting immediately.

I am Boxer

Why am I claiming?
- Even with my case, I was scared to death of lynching marv... until I saw his recent posts. It confirms him as scum in my eyes.
- I wanted to prove to the town how bad marv's reads are (in particular his OMGUS against me).
- I believe these bad reads are hilariously uncharacteristic of town marv. In addition, gunning for your assailant (when you are the top scumread in the thread) is the optimal play as scum to not give away any information.
- When marv flips red, I'll be confirmed-town and NK target #1 anyway, so claiming a role-less blue doesn't matter.

Why can you trust me?
- From the lack of NK and the lack of roleblock, it's 99% likely that this is a Boxer/Medic blue setup. The only way this is not the case is if scum missed the NK deadline. Pretty unlikely (especially given that marv is scum).
- Therefore, there is only 1 Boxer. Unless another Boxer counter-claims, I am confirmed town.
- If marv somehow counter-claims, I get a 1-for-1 situation where he gets lynched first every time and confirms me as town.
- I also have a semi-breadcrumb:

Well, you really think he is scum and should insta-die before he's even had a chance to defend himself? I'm uncomfortable sending him to his grave like this...
I'd like to know if you are scum. Think about it. It's the pro-town thing to do. If you are scum, it's pro-town because town will lynch a scum. If you are town, then it's pro-town that we don't have to kill you. Tell us


Uhhgggh fine I'm scum.

Actually I'm town+ Show Spoiler +
Actually I'm the Vigi+ Show Spoiler +
No but really I have no fancy abilities and I'm town TT


But in all seriousness, is there anything you want me to address? Like I don't understand this helpless attitude you're taking to making a read on me. I understand jokes to a point, but I'm not unreadable and I'm a bit suspicious of this nonchalant attitude you're taking to determining my alignment.

Click the spoilers. I mention that I'm the vigi in the 3rd layer (that I'm blue), and that I have no powers in the 4th layer (that i'm a roleless blue, a.k.a Boxer)

bleh. your claim doesn't make me scum, nor did you bother to read my case.

Seems like my case is wrong. Just as yours is.

I find it funny how marv has been dangling his scumread on me for almost an entire day and has yet to come up with any rationale whatsoever.
I'm hoping you're just town that thinks he's caught scum and is really happy about that, but I don't like your series of posts like this.

Hurry up I'm bored.

I think your case is well-written and presented. But little potshots and posts like this serve to weaken your overall position in my mind somehow. Like...case good, well-presented, but it's being followed up by little comments like this, and for whatever reason that makes me want to disagree with the case/read, just because of how you're pursuing it.

I'm not sure if that's particular to me or not. I'm not sure if that's really relevant or not. And I don't find it scummy. But, at least with me, the continued sniping serves to turn me off the read you're pushing, because it adds posts to the thread that don't matter at all and are phrased very negatively.

I find it insanely odd how marv calls those cases cherry picked and then can't come up with other cases to his defense, obviously if they're cherry picked it's because there are other cases contrary to them, but I haven't seen any yet.

Still curious about this:

To me, your play is pretty neutral
in reference to marv.

Why was his play neutral to you? Specifically, what posts, what actions, etc.


He had a few reads, but nothing that great, which shows that he was atleast trying to look town, he hasn't pushed any case really really hard like some of the other people who I have stronger town reads on.

What reads in particular?

What posts do you feel like are him pushing cases, but not very hard, as opposed to a case that you feel someone else WAS pushing hard?

If there's a parity cop or another boxer, maybe claim up, don't think it's fake though.

Look at your attitude, look at yourself, and see how anti-productive it is, please.

Look at how you're coming across and even you should be able to understand my point of view on you.
