Hey guys, i wait around most of the day and then it starts while i'm at work that makes me sad. But i'm caught up now thankfully.
I know its been talked about a little bit but I agree with that it should be a confident townie against his top scum read. Its to easy sometimes when two people you think look scummy to tunnel them both and just not see whats going on besides that.
Obi why didn't you post more like this in titanic? You were so much more reserved their and you are acting so much more confident and easy going here I Iike it in comparison to our previous games together.
Meh, I'm not entirely sure in hindsight. I got really detached from Titanic for some reason. I wouldn't be able to tell you why because I honestly don't know.
If I really had to give you a reason, I think frustration might have been a really big part of it.

Someone is going to have to race me when the selection period begins if they don't want us dueling. Like, they better get there within 5 minutes.
If you waste our selection period doing stupid shit instead of letting the duelmaster do his thing, you are going to get lynched.

Please don't duel anyone until we've talked it through properly. In response to your question though batsnacks you'd have to wait and see. The way games are going nowadays mafia always need to be pushing into the lurker category of people because people are getting pretty exceptional at finding town reads out of active players. If you have extra information that someone is pushing a towny in the lurkers you'd been in a good spot. So really just see who is lurking because they either come back mafia which is a win or they come back town and you have a lurker that could be pushed in your mind for making reads on ppl.
So really there is no specific name to give.

Who the hell cares, you probably aren't even the cop.
Acting all pseudo-insulted about something this pointless.
I got more experience at this game than you and an innate ability to bleed town so if you really want to force town to kill you go ahead.

I feel like this guy and HF have only been trying to paint all the stuff I've done in the worst light possible, so I need third party opinions.
Ok, we (me you and HF) are gonna clear this out now otherwise we probably won't be able to play the game proper since it will nag at our minds and whatnot.
I'll step through my thought process from start to end, and give the evolution of my thoughts. Let's keep it civil and clean.
The posts in question that started it all are the following:

Other joke posts/not caring posts from me and ritoky and you pick out sloosh who is doing the same thing and write a big paragraph explaining it. Reeks of too mafia try hard.
My initial post was done as a simple read check / way to jumpstart discussion. I don't think the posts prior were doing much apart from being opener posts, so I went ahead and did it.
Your general phrasing of questions was very off putting. When you ask "Are you scum?", how is that meaningful? How is that helpful? Prior, you asked Obi "Will you have the balls to duel somebody at some point in the game or do you prefer to leave it to others?" which also felt quite loaded. There are tones of "are you scum or are you scum". Perhaps I'm reading too much into it / language barrier or whatnot, but that is the feeling that those questions give.
HolyFlare (I'm guessing) interpreted my post as a joke / not something serious, and then found your response out of character, given the presence of other joke posts.
What soon follows is you basically calling HolyFlare scum in each post you make without being explicit of why HolyFlare is mafia. To clarify, it wasn't explicitly clear to me, maybe it was obvious to you.

It's one thing to ignore it entirely but to then continue to ask a question with only 1 logical follow-up (i cant be sure 30 mins into a game herp derp) is actually silly and not in the same spectrum of scum hunting that you would associate with someone thinking about things like you want to appear to be doing Misrepresentations of my posts will be either corrected or punished. Stubborn perseverance on a point made that apparently isn't valid enough for you to definitely categorize me as scum, but valid enough to be classified as analytical, isn't something I see as townie behaviour. I have challenged your strange confidence you expressed in me being mafia by forcing you to prepare for an eventual duel, and now you have proven my point by saying that nobody can be very confident 30 minutes in the game, yet that post of yours sounded like it was the case, given that it offered no townie explanation for my behaviour. You have backtracked in the face of danger, sir. Prepare for the consequences.

I'm saying that you didn't give a satisfactory answer as to how sure you are about me being scum just based on my former reasoning.
Do you have the guts? I think you're confusing guts with being retarded. You yourself agreed with my complaint about games degrading and not being analytical but the moment i start with analysis why do you try and sidetrack that instead of just refuting what i said and in fact avoiding any real analysis with some useless "do you have the guts question"? Very bad vivax My post about SlOosh was even more analytical, and not instantly condemning as opposed to yours, which was limited to skip over my point of view to summarize it as being tryhard scum. Faced with your one-way infamy I see no choice but to force you to be prepared for a challenge against my minority, and from what I've gathered, you seem to display a great deal of cowardice, and call my courage retardedness, just like a rat would, to rationalize his failure in facing a much more worthy contender.

vivax dont you think two scummy people should duel each other, rather than 1 scummy vs 1 townie? I think the idea Obi proposed of getting one townie looking guy to duel a scummy guy is good. Mafia can cause a lot of chaos in the eventuality that two scummy people duel each other. Imagine if they both were townies. You mislynch one, and they can push the idea that people on his wagon were scummy, then maybe they mislynch the other, and so on. Besides, if mafia so wants, they can simply refuse to duel, upon which somebody has to take up the task and pick one of the two. Seems rather unrealistical. I like the idea of having one townie guy duel somebody who is scummy, it will look one sided, but it will also be one of the opportunities where either scum shows face or has to give up on their teammate, if the target was right. And after all, if somebody is confident enough, he will duel on his own. We should be careful after all to not become tunneled and emotional all too quickly, even though it's hard for me when confronted with HF's attempts to misrepresent my posts and paint me scum.
I found this post very reasonable. It clearly explained your intent and explains why you reacted the way you did from a town motivation.
On July 30 2014 08:14 Vivax wrote:
I picked SlOosh's post cause it interfered with my intent and was after all, a post that might or might not tell me he's scumreading me. It was one of those posts that have the potential to cause chaos while you try to get a productive discussion going, and people making those posts can say it was meant seriously or as a joke afterwards, whatever they prefer and is most comfortable for them in the moment they have to explain it.
Without this post, it just seemed that you were calling me scum for vague reasons.
Upon leaving thread and thinking about it, and rereading, I feel that both you (Vivax) and HolyFlare are town, and have different playstyles which account for the misunderstanding and consequent finger pointing. This is where I stand. If you have more you want from me, ask away. HolyFlare if you want to talk logics or whatever, I'm here to talk as well. I think that we should clear this up earlier than later, lest we emotionally make a gutshot duel or something.

How do you figure you have more experience than me at this game? Because your tl post count is higher than mine on this account? You go ahead and force town to kill me if you can.
Notice how Vivax says nothing about his alignment in this post. He only says he has an "ability to bleed town."

Seriously don't do this bat its a good way to get yourself killed and help town become dysfunctional. If you duel Viv at least wait till the last second so that we can get as much information as we can from the day.
However viv didn't necessarily give you bad advice, just check someone who you think are lurking day one or night so that you can gather information from more active posters. So don't go crazy on viv because he didn't give you a solid name right now

No, I don't think you get it. If you end up dueling people for asinine reasons we are just going to lynch you and move on. We are not wasting our time with people who insist on doing stupid shit instead of scumhunting/solving the game.
If you honestly believe that whatever the fuck you said is actually grounds for a scumread/duel then you're out of your mind.

Reason being that I think Vivax and HolyFlare are town, and the argument between quite clashy, which newer scum would have more difficulty entering thread. The people who have already entered looked ok and didn't seem particularly awkward.
