I'd just like to point out that the rule states you are not allowed to "literally claim scum" so your potential scumslip would not be against the rules. It's funny how you make a mistake and then try to claim that it didn't happen because you wouldn't break the rules. If you are scum, you haven't broken any rules yet. Why are you trying to say that because scum slips are against the rules, yours wasn't a scum slip?

*if yours wasn't a scum slip.
Off to bed.

It wasn't a scumslip, I'm just too tired to express myself clearly, and I'm too stupid to stop posting in the thread. I've had problems with this before.
Town has a problem in this game. So far we've made two coordinated efforts: 1) Lynch the SK, 2) Lynch me. I'd hardly call the 3 votes on glurio a coordinated effort (at least not by town).
So if we discuss nothing for the rest of D2, as Mocsta essentially suggests here by requesting an instant majority lynch on OO, and then we decide to lynch me D3, who are we (well, not me) going to lynch after that?
If I do get lynched and flip town D3, town will have an ever bigger problem, since they've mislynched again. If I flip scum D3, is town going to gain any association-type information? Due to the constant hate train, I've basically been radioactive this whole game, so it's not like you'll see some blatant cooperative effort in my voting patterns and whatnot.
Since I'm still being attacked some, I'll offer this defense: if I'm scum, wouldn't I have just shut up and let town lynch the SK? I'm not saying we shouldn't lynch the SK, I'm saying I refuse to give up the rest of D2 like Mocsta suggests. It's time town can spend hunting scum.

On phone will make 3 short points
1. Get used to losing sleep over mafia. Some even dream of mafia haha. Welcome to the club.
2. If u r tired as u indicate. I would contest your scum slip was genuine and is easily explained by a lapse in concentration. I think the counter of scum dont break the rules is weak at best and desparate at worst.
3. U r clutching at straws. Fact no one in general is talking. I find it convenient u choose to ignore my posts asking for activity and discussion
Nice try warbaby and enjoy the scum dreams

The vote is essentially majority now; are we able to shorten the cycle to say: 30hrs (or now); Pretty Puh-lease ?
Why would a town want to throw away part of the day cycle? Day belongs to town, it's when they hunt and lynch scum.
"Oh but we're gonna lynch the SK/scum ObviousOne anyway" is a lame excuse. If we throw away the rest of D2 like Mocsta suggested, we're giving up any chance to actually hunt scum. Why would a town ever want less time to hunt scum?

Its actually a common occurrence to ask for shorter cycles when a lynch is universally agreed.
If town was actively conversing than yes. Keep the cycle full.
But don't try and bullshit me as if lots of flowing conversation occurred.
P.s. thanks for ignoring my succinct reasoning for your scum slip. Do u always cherry pick what you respond to?

It wasn't a scum slip, so I don't need to respond to your reasoning.

Can you provide an example? I'd assume you can easily find an example if it's a common occurrence.

Im confident off the top of my head. Mafia LIX we asked for shorter cycle.
Normal Mini 4 I think we asked for shorter cycle. And those are my two most recent games.
I think even nomination mafia we asked for shorter cycle IIRC - but that is on going so shouldnt discuss.
Everything you say is based off poorly reasoned arguments, and rash conclusions founded upon no merit.
Go to sleep; I am not bothering continuing discourse with you this cycle.

Catching up on the thread for the morning here's my thoughts.
I really don't like the way Mocsta handled the questioning from WB about his opinions on Cora on pages 60-61. Its brought me to the point of thinking that if Cora is in fact scum, then Mocsta almost certainly is too. That's too rash actually, there's plenty of situations where they have opposite alignments.
Corazon then jumps in and starts diverting attention away from Mocsta (be it on purpose or not). He then essentially implies that we shouldn't be discussing anything else for the rest of D2 + Show Spoiler +On February 15 2013 14:13 cDgCorazon wrote:Show nested quote +On February 15 2013 14:10 cDgCorazon wrote: These are the posts that I've made that include your name since I said I was done attacking you until you decided that I was attacking you still.
...
Please tell me where I attack you at all in these posts. Not posting about other players (because by the time I got back OO had been ousted as SK) does not mean I am attacking you still. I'm not giving out scum reads because at this point OO is going to be lynched and it would be useless to make a case against someone else as the case would not lead to a lynch (for example, I made my case on you 5 hours into D1 and after a couple of hours it did not go anywhere else). So again, not posting about other players does not mean I am attacking you still. Stop being so emotional. .

WB is trying to converse, but you and Corazon just keep insisting that we should not be.
(Mocsta was addressing WB in this post)

I personally think that WB is asking reasonable questions (especially for a newbie game). The fact that no one is answering him is concerning to me.
My conclusion from reading all this: Corazon is fishier than ever. He keeps deflecting all questioning with "I was tunneling WB and I admitted it already, leave me alone." even when that does not apply to the questioning. On top of that, he entirely ignored my post responding to his blatant attempt to defame me, although he was gone at the time I posted it, I still expected a response.
I do think its likely that Mocsta and Corazon are scum buddies, but there's plenty of WIFOM to be had about Cora setting this situation up to bring Mocsta down with him, so I'm not quite ready to start killing people based on this part of the theory yet.

Testuser: I am not sure if we are reading the same thread here?
warbaby - consistently insinuates associations
- consistently misrepresents information
- consistently cherry picks a sentence in a wall of text
- consistently ignores rational argument directed his way
- & consistently infers his actions are pro-town; whilst being in complete contradiction to his original "promises"
If you want to keep looking at corazon I won't stop you. - I said before it is his job to convince you of his alignment.
However; if you want to assume corazon and I are a team; I am going to have to stop you right there..
Firstly, the only reason association was brought up was because you were looking into corazon; and found it odd I did not want to concentrate on him.
This has now been explained twice
On February 15 2013 16:19 Mocsta wrote: If anything, I have *not* been discussing you. Keep It Simple Stupid: As stated before, I have a town read on you. The goal of this game is to find scum; not have a townie love fest. The only person I spoke about being town was TestSubject (as he was essentially confirmed) Again, why is that scum-alignment indicative? You are working off associations founded upon assumptions. Mafia is about flipping one player and then making the associations.
Lets work through the logic. Corazon flips town; then what? The entire association case falls apart; unless you are warbaby, then I become de facto scum. Anyone that targets warbaby is scum right...
Corazon flips scum; again, then what? How does my interaction today prove I am in a scum team? (Simply, that evidence on it own does not; and fuck me if I am going to have my first mislynch under this condition)
The same logic applies with me as the lynch candidate.
Fact: One interaction does not make two people scum. If you were not 'essentially' confirmed town; I could say you and Sn0_Man are a scum team because of the glowing review you gave him.... But I didn't (and neither did others), because that is an illogical stance to assume - just like the situation present.
Secondly, the only reason this item of association was re-raised was due to the misrepresentation of warbaby

- Some of those counts are from quotes I have responded too
- Some of those hits are from nested quotes when responding to OTHERS
I am not going to comment on the times I referenced corazon directly, because frankly, it does not matter.
In reality; I did not mention corazon much throughout Day1. Just as there are others that did not catch my attention. This is the way of a game of forum-mafia. I can go into anyone's filter and find people they have not questioned.
What is the point, and why is this alignment indicative - without a red flip

I assume you imply town; if so, I am genuinely surprised by this; as I thought I was a proponent of town continuing scum hunting.
Further, I am confused by the statement in general, even though it is written plain and simple. Are you inferring: that you disagree with the above comments I directed to warbaby?

However: What is concerning to me TestUser; is that you do not seem to notice (or case) warbaby is actually the one who blatantly ignores any criticisms/comments directed his way.
I simply do not understand how when two people react, and exhibit the same behaviour; one is reasonable, the other becomes 'something else'?

HOLY CRAP LET'S STOP MAKING ASSOCIATION CASES ALREADY

Okay, I totally just skimmed the last four pages and I don't feel like I'm missing anything. This is the kind of thing that made us almost lose the last Newbie Mafia -- three or four active townies cluttering the thread, sparring each other over nothing while multiple inactive players post literally nothing.
Somebody said that Mocsta/Cora/WB rushing to defend or attack Mocsta/Cora/WB was only meant to divert attention from Mocsta/Cora/WB... this is getting out of hand. None of you have attention diverted away from yourselves. By participating in this BS, attention is focused on YOU, and as town (and I assume at least one of you involved here is town), that is bad.
We are looking at MYLO tomorrow, guys. TOMORROW. And we know almost nothing about the reads or opinions of MULTIPLE players:
Sylencia Mandalor Sevryn
Why are we so eager to let them do literally nothing today?

Quit ignoring empirical data. Why are you wasting any reasoning at all on TestUser? He claimed Tracker with no counterclaim and we'll know if he's a liar tonight.
You're turning this into a schoolyard bicker. LOOK FOR SCUM, don't engage in juvenile wordplay games.

Okay, looked at WB's supposed scum slip -- it comes from within a hypothetical scenario, so I don't see it as necessarily being a scum slip.
If WB is scum, we should be able to tell from reasons other than him literally telling us he is scum.
|
warbaby is my number one scum - thought that was clear.
as for number two:
I think its between mandalor or sylencia
I have not liked mandalor most of the game (identified him in my last will) and this cycle asked him to produce some reads (with no response so far).
I treated Sylencia as blue read early on (same reason as Sn0_Man).. but. considering his play has not picked up @ all i am now getting concerned. Even this cycle; his play is still *all* blue talk. I must admit i am starting to think its a ploy; because I certainly have not seen a strong scum read out of him - even though I asked him for one already.
Between the two, I am more likely to suspect Sylencia. Because, he has shown he is still actively lurking; just selectively picking and choosing what he comments on. (this is a problem due to sharing no strong reads)
On the other hand mandalor I ?think? said he was busy; which is a pretty convenient excuse, but I guess with the filter activity might be adding up?
My thoughts on course of action; pressure both, figure out if mandalor is lying about being busy; and get Sylencia to disseminate some reads. Will be able to re-assess from there.

Agreed; I dont build a case due to scum slips. Its simply icing on the cake.
