Lets put it this way: the only people with any reason to lie about not having read their role PM are scum. However, given my experiences, the 2 previous times I encountered this phenomenon, the player had in fact not read his role PM. Once was Drazerk, so good luck figuring out his motives. And the other was Ver in Personality 2, who was trying some new and improved way of playing, which failed miserably due to time constraints.
In both cases, lynching them would have been equivalent to a random lynch. I don't feel like random lynching, so lets find scum instead and IGNORE OO until he starts playing the damn game like a normal player.
I don't think ANYTHING that has happened so far says anything about anybody's alignment... except Marv, whose very existence proves he's scum.

stop talking about the role pm if he really didn't read it we can argue about it in the banlist postgame. as of right now it's no different than claiming "I AM AMERICA AND SO CAN YOU" and typing ##Nuke Kurumi in the thread. it's stupid and stop talking about it and start talking about prplhz

I agree; didn't really mean to choose a day 1 lynch target with my first post. One suspicious intro post =/= instalynch.

I meant that there was no point for him to say that.

Is your case serious, s&b?

Fine. SnB: I don't see why prplhz's opening post is anything other than fluff... and a criticism of the trend that recent games have to create about 90 pages of fluff filters on D1.
Why do you feel prplhz's posting is scummy?

Just a little reminder to some people and all people, something that was brought up in the latest podcast and that I agree with: it's a bad idea to have a 150 page thread after day1. Especially for a guy like me who probably doesn't even have 3rd grade reading level, it's really exhausting and it burns me out. So lets consolidate and not screw around too much. Yay!
this doesn't sound like something prplhz would say
and i think "not following your own advice for creating a good town atmosphere" is quite a strong scumhunting heuristic

so @marv, yes.
that said there's obviously a reason that days are 48 hours long instead of 2. if prplhz shows up and starts posting again, i'm not gonna be like "you scum i ignore you booo". but as things stand now, prplhz should hang.

So you're genuinely calling someone with 3 posts right at the start 'spammy'.
Also prplhz often comes into the thread with generalised advice as town. In fact it's what he usually does as town. I know this because I researched a billion (yes, a billion) of prplhz's 'openers' in LIX when I was pursuing him as mafia.
Please also elaborate on 'suspicious interactions'.

Yea, I agree with marv. I went back and actually looked, because I remembered prplhz doing something similar when I played scum with him in GSL 1. But, he's done the same thing as town in the past. Not always, but he has.

I love how everyone:
Actually believes that OO hasn't read his role pm.
and
Is now going to talk about meta reads even when Ace just posted a thread saying meta reads should not be followed.
-slow claps-

Here's a post I made in LIX, s&b:

Ok, I can roll with this read. I looked up two of his recent town-games, and in one he lurked and got lynched Day 1 (Mad Men Mafia). In both games (Rock Band, Mad Men) he opened up by asking people to consolidate and not spam, whereas in his mafia games he opens in a more trolly style - in Dwarf he came in laughing that he hadn't read the thread, in Normal mini mafia 2 he spammed votes down. Similar with GSL Open.

-slow claps- 1. Do you believe OO read his role PM? If you don't believe it, then how can you see anything townie about it?
2. Ace is not god and I disagree with his opinion about meta.

Content per post ratio was low, they came in quick succession, and when you have just told the thread that the current state of the game is too spammy and bad for town, there's a different burden for what constitutes "spammy."
When prplhz comes in with generalized advice as town, does he often explicitly disregard it almost instantly?
Suspicious interactions - I don't like how that one guy was so quick to effectively retract his vote by implying it was not serious. Especially when he didn't unvote.
This is obviously a really shitty reason to say prplhz is scum. You should focus on the real reason. But I wanted to mention it as it did influence my thought process.

I disagree with his opinion about meta as well. Hell, meta might be the one thing in mafia that I am actually above average at.

How do you expect content to be high when he's the first person posting? There's also a pretty significant and large difference between making a couple of posts at the start of the game and spamming in general (how Dandel plays, how I played in Personality). I'm just genuinely staggered you believe in what you're saying here. But do carry on.

-slow claps- What is a meta read and why is this particular thing that you claim constitutes a meta read a bad piece of information to use? Why does your comment on OO help town or advance discussion? We've moved past that point, why try and drag us back? Y u so bad?

If he was going to be true to his ideal, he should either have apple posting and waited until someone said something he could comment on in a worthwhile way, or he should have made an effort to do some legitimate analysis on something that was in the thread. You should always be making the best case you can make, even if best isn't very good yet.

S&B: I never said i wasn't serious with my vote. I asked marv why does he assume i am serious. Something he also failed to answer.
