Ok
We are lynching ShiaoPi.
While I think Round is scum, because there is no town logic whatsoever behind his posting, I could be wrong and this might be how that entity thinks they can scumhunt. I have no intention of dropping them from my scumlist anytime soon because it in no way helps us.Though, what mocsta did was such a vomit-inducing attempt to be clever that he clearly did it idly without thinking it through. I guess that is slightly feasible to justify doing from a town perspective.
YOU KNOW WHAT THAT LAST STATEMENT DOESN'T MEAN? THAT I THINK I'M GIVING HIM A TOWN READ. Yes thrawn, I used "is" and "town" in the same sentence, but thats looking at angles, not a read. GET THAT STRAIGHT YOU ILLITERATE BUFFOON. I'm stating there is a chance, so he is not the auto lynch. I was wrong in pushing that sentiment.
ShiaoPi is the lynch that would do us the most good. My mouth started watering when I read the bolded part. Sure you can grind it out to WIFOM, but I love how tangible Roundabound made it with this post.

I'm not going to pretend to know what this whole post implies, but it's purposefully confusing and it's bad, but not completely uninformative. We were clearly on the road to lynching ShiaoPi. It wasn't until Moc's post that we got off of him. The timing is interesting.
Moc accomplished nothing with his claim/un-claim of scum. Everyone knew it wouldn't. I don't think I need to detail that there is very little difference in town voting proclaimed scum and mafia voting proclaimed scum. His arguments against me voting him immediately fall short because my accusations towards him are perfectly acceptable as both alignments. You play against your win-con, I am going to lynch you. It's generically going to be the response that 90% of players give. Trolling indicates that you are trying to trip up someone's thought process, and if you do that intentionally in public, you are encouraging chaotic behavior which is awfully antie-town. There was no fruitful read that came of Moc's claim. Not Gumshoe, not Mattchew, not me. No one.
But maybe ShiaoPi.

On a side note, I think its looking a bit sketchy that it seems like we already have a vote on thrawn (for "hmm") and vivax building a meta case on him for lurking a few hours into the game, it feels like teamwork or opportunistic scum play... No conclusion fluff

I think the abortive case had some momentum for a second against thrawn is very suspicious. The way Rob voted for Thrawn for lurking, and then !Hey Presto!, vivax comes in showing that thrawn is apparently well known for being lurky as scum, well it all seems very wrong. vivax backed down almost immediately, and Rob stayed the course until thrawn started talking. Now vivax left without any more reads after that. Rob did the *exact* opposite, posting a lot and picking up a read (based on thrawn's thoughts and a joke). Essentially what I'm trying to say here is that the behavior between the two of these definitely warrants more investigation.On vivax I really don't like the way that vivax posted fluff, gave someone else evidence to start a case, and then left it all alone for everyone else to take care of, and then disappeared right afterwards.

In short, vivax seems incredibly confident about being right but hasn't really done anything useful aside from helping another player make a case. That seems like as much of a scum mindset as you can get. Red: He is a self-proclaimed "novella-case" maker, yet is only producing glimmers of thoughts with no concrete substance.

Quite reasonably because "do you talk this much as scum" implies that you meant Rob was a town read. Robik didn't say "I talk a lot as town", but rather "I like forum mafia because I can make a ton of content". Offers insight on post phrasing for something insignificant; yet, can't reach vote-worthy conclusions on his own reads.

I'm not going after Robik at present. I felt something was off between the two that warranted further investigation, which has led me to believe that vivax is the scummier of the two. Right now, I'm not exactly feeling incredibly rushed to get a lynch in the next few hours, so I'm curious to see the way kush plays vivax. Red: Apparently now isn't chasing Robik; but doesnt clear him as town either.....

When a guy is lurking and posting nonsense you would actually want him to post more and better stuff so you can get a read on him. Hence I can't explain from a town pov why he doesn't want thrawn to be pressured, and thrawn himself already pointed out: Mordanis could be scum, his suspicions of vivax/robik look like they stem from him having knowledge of my alignment. He's suspicious of people because of their suspicions of a townie which is classic fake-scumhunting.
I thought this was apparent but I guess I have to explain this. The case on thrawn was the first case with anything to it. There were two people behind it, and it seemed like a mostly meta case (as I recall, Robik was much happier with his read after seeing the game vivax linked). The thing is, I don't know thrawn, or really anyone else well enough to make a meta case or even believe one without outside confirmation.So, I did what I can do, and thought about the posts and the order and such, to try to find scum through analysis. I thought (and still do) that, if there is a strong meta case against someone who has played many games on TL, there will be several games that will show this pattern, and multiple people will be able to verify that the meta case is reasonable. An acceptable point of view. And a solid reason to be unsure of Mordanis alignment. Henceforth I treat this post as null until more flips are given. Why?Scum know who town is. Say Thrawn is town; its an entirely plausible contribution for scum to make (Against a weak/incorrect Vivax case). This is independant of Vivax alignment.

Vivax, mordanis is scum QED Please lynch, me falling asleep here.
After throwing red reads around on everyone involved, he goes after a single person that was not involved in the entire incident. The case on Mordanis is weak. It's day one and he is being quoted on promising content and lack of a vote. That's it. It isn't good, but it is far from lynch material when there are worse individuals here.
Now sidesprang, who I admit is not on my townlist is being pushed. The fact that Round strictly used SS's posts about his claim to procure a reason to vote is mindboggling. It's clearly a null-tell when someone votes for someone who claims scum and asks to be lynched.

What a miserable excuse of a vote. I can't believe this hydra has any intention of helping town for the remainder of the game. I'd be more then happy to eat my words and wear the dunce cap if Round can provide a better case and organize town instead of calling it boring because of the nature of IML.
We are lynching the person who was stuffed under the Moc claim and forgotten about vote-wise. His name is still getting mentioned but there is no weight put into it at all.
ShiaoPi flipping scum will confirm alot for me. And I don't think you people will lynch the hydra as long as you are afraid of getting called names by it.

Rayn. Let's hydra here.
Bums post reads like classic scum in very guide.
Start off with a scum read, then produce reasons to ignore it. Then push othersothers whom ya vote is not in.
Yes that's right. Bum advocates shiaopi but no reason yet has a vote on us.how town like do u think? Lol

I would love to lynch you, but apparently you can scum claim and still not die. I'm immune to your tactics boys.
Why don't you go ahead and put your vote on ShiaoPi. You aren't allowed to put it anywhere else.

Why don't you go ahead and put your vote on ShiaoPi. You aren't allowed to put it anywhere else. U were there in restart. I scum claimed as town.heck I'm the guy that fake claimed doc to lynch the doc.
Your sole metric is an action you convey as personally not comprehending. Bad play is not equivocal with scum play.
I would have thought a town player that realises that rounds bound is scum, would then filter dive and prove motive behind the rest of play You can't do that and won't do that.
I.e. your primary push in the game is pure policy.. Yet here you are trying to tell us how to play the game.
What I love is how you comment in the validity of cases. E.g. mordanis You talk with a level of conviction beyond assuming.
Disagree?

Didn't mean to scare you away bum
Wow. If I can do that with phone posting, I'm worried what will happen when I get to a comp
For the record. Rayn and I are in agreement with the best vote for todaytoday and it is where it is already.

I'm doing a "QP"
I'm not going to post for 72 hrs and rely on bum to ignore good cases like mordanis or sidesprang. Plus everyone will forget I exist and thus not vote me

Can you please take a look at the difference in play between this game and this one (http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=436388&user=sidesprang&view=all).
I think the difference is as clear as day, in that game his content, insight and opinion is more prevalent for the average post. In this game, he posts jokey stuff, keeps his posting to a minimum and doesn't go out to calling people scum, or pushing targets.
Still would like the opinion of other folks.
~V

Agreed . it is night and day in titanic. Not just the tone, but that he offers his thoughts willingly
When tied in with his lack of care for lynch as rayn has noted and there is zero reason to not lynch sidesprang
~moc
|
The worse thing is. In titanic he was the cop which is typically thought to be played more reserved in general compared to town play.
Essentially his cop game >>>>> this game
Deffo not a good sign for being town
~moc

Off a glance that game is different to this one and titantic.
In shadow he's playing classic scum in the sense mainly discussing bad logic in cases made against town. i note that he is hesitant to release information in general though, instead choosing to ask questions to others.
The act of withholding informatiom is akin to this game in my opinion
One thing of high note is that shadow is a hydra game of sorts so i dobt think its smart to make that game a baseline for hsi scum play

JJ, I don't understand how that is exclusively mafia mindset. How can you tell that he's simply not interested in lynching Moc just cause of the claim? Sure, it's inconsistent with what he said earlier, but maybe it's not such a big deal for him after all. People's opinions can change.
The problem I have with your case is that it focuses on "this is what he should have done as town" rather than making observations about playstyle that point towards him being mafia, or weak explanations for his actions.
Surely the lack of interest he has in pursuing people is a point, and the fact that he plays completely different from his town meta (but also different from his coached scum meta), but I don't think that as townie, he would have in any case kept going after raynsta.

Sorry JJ, I misunderstood something in your case. It's a really good point. I thought that he was believing Mocsta to be scum when he wrote Then he deserves to get policy lynched, and hopefully a ban aswell.
