Replace Dandel Ion in Koshi's post with any other person in this game. You respond with, "Oh XYZ... Are you scum again? What's your take on this post?" and I say the exact same thing replacing Dandel Ion with XYZ. Are you making this useless post distancing yourself from XYZ for when XYZ flips scum? | ||

Since then he has disappeared except to come in every now and then to yell that person X or Y is a Blackfyre. In the past, he has always shown a lot of interest in uncovering plots, and while he may not always be the friendliest fellow, he is more useful than he is today. I feel we should really look at Ser Ion tomorrow. Funky stuff happened in Baratheon politics and a Dragon amongst the Stags would explain a lot. The whole house should be scrutinized tomorrow, but Ser Ion should not be given a free pass just because he has been an outspoken loudmouth. He really hasn't said much of anything useful. | ||

That's not the biggest problem here. I can sort of see a townie thinking like that. The actual problem is that you later stated that your scumread on DI was based on a connection of his to me. There is nothing like that in your filter (actually the opposite, with you assuming DI is scum in your case against me). Why would you clearly forget or forge your own thought process if you actually were town and trying to find scum? | ||

I thought he had been helpful in sorting out the mess regarding Baratheon politics, but he was instead disruptive and caused more harm than good. We're starting to agree on things. This feels quite strange. | ||

"was only scum b/c of connection to xatalos unsure" Right? | ||

Yes. 1) You never based your scumread on DI to any connection. 2) Even if you did, there were plenty of other reasons in your post. There's no consistent town logic here. | ||

Something that bothers me is that there wasn't really ever a response to my last case. Just a bunch of that's stupid posts along with he's crazy town now. People are now suspecting DI openly in thread. Why? Why now when you didn't respond to my case before? | ||

There's no consistent town logic here. What is town logic? Acting to benefit town and hunt scum is the only "logic" there should be. That only applies to how the individual is thinking at any given time. Too often people in these games get wrapped up in, "oh I can't see why he would do that" without realizing they only see the game from one perspective. Every town player will act in what he thinks benefits town most at any given time. Any scum player will try to appear as town as possible, and will therefor attempt to emulate your "town logic". I can not understand people who make arguments based on town logic and town motivation. "Where's the scum motivation in X doing Y"? Well maybe X did Y so you would say that. I'm going back to building my cases. | ||

Saying "what you're saying is WIFOM" is not only, dumb, it's also untrue in this case. | ||

The reason why nobody took your post seriously was because it was too bad to consider. There have been people suspecting DI all game for different (bad) reasons. The situation hasn't really changed to any direction. Acro isn't even really suspecting him now I think, just softpushing him in case he gets a chance to vote for him at some point. | ||

For calling people "scum" because they're playing badly as town, not because of actual behaviors that indicate they are scum. Yes i read your post. First you say Risen is scum for calling out anti-town behavior (Oats/yamato/DI). On August 13 2013 03:46 raynpelikoneet wrote: Sounds good. You are also saying he should know their meta. Afaik the guy has had a long break from mafia (correct me if i am wrong here). People (aside me) tend to forget how people play in games, just look at Titanic where i was trying to confirm Oats in a way or another from the game he played a couple of weeks ago. Didn´t work. So calling out anti-town behavior without looking into players last games makes him mafia? well, if he really had forgotten everything about those players then my "should have known better" point wouldn't be correct. I don't think it's that easy to forget things like "this player gets in fights" or especially to forget dandel ion. but anyway, even if that is the case - there's still the fact that an experienced player would, if they were town, know that townies get in fights and fuck up the thread too, and that spamming doesn't make you scum. Come on rayn, making cases against bad play rather than scum-motivated play is scum 101 and that's what risen was doing here, whether or not he knew anyone's meta. On August 13 2013 03:46 raynpelikoneet wrote: that's why this was a minor point, it's something that both town and scum do but scum are more likely to do it than townies are. Then there is a connection case. You said townies can do that too. That´s right. Did you check if Risen does that as town? As scum? At least you didn´t tell that in your case. If you are gonna tell Risen is scum for something both town/mafia do, at least provide some evidence. On August 13 2013 03:46 raynpelikoneet wrote: i never said it did, i was trying to explain why it doesn't make him town. Huge post - makes him scum how? On August 13 2013 03:46 raynpelikoneet wrote: duh. if someone is choosing easy targets and making easy cases against them, it's because that person is not actually trying to find real scum but just trying to look like they are. "Easy reads" for anti town behavior - makes him scum how? On August 13 2013 03:46 raynpelikoneet wrote: compare it to the entire rest of his filter. he obviously spent more time on that post than on anything else he's done - it's much longer, but also (for example) he uses quotes more (the only place he uses quotes as examples rather than things to respond to). and yet he spends all that effort making terrible, scummy reads. How is Risen´s post "constructed and careful"? On August 13 2013 03:46 raynpelikoneet wrote: The only thing that holds water in your post is that he has not explained / pursued his reads. Fuck, a half of the playerbase doesn´t even seem to have reads. If you think Risen´s reads are bad, why don´t you question him on them? Instead you want to hear from people who have been in contact with him?? Why? Why not from him? i want to hear from people who have been in contact with him because maybe he's been putting more effort into his reads and the game outside of the thread. those people can give me information that i can't get from reading his filter. i fully expect him to answer my case but i shouldn't have to ask for it specifically, should i? | ||

Do you seriously compare yourself to me? I've pushed several people, you haven't (unless you mean softly throwing suspicion at anyone you can). | ||
