In post 31, notscience wrote:Peko was best girl in two.

Nagito was best overall character and Angie in game three was best.

Best in the first was prob junko or Kyoko
I liked Peko, but I found myself liking Fuyuhiko a bit more out of the pair. Gundham is cool too.
Angie is terrifying but I'd agree that she was probably one of the best-written characters in 3 (out of a ton of great ones there).
I'd go Byakuya for the first game? Not that he's particularly likeable but he's rather interesting.
This was the 6th post after mine so VOTE: klick

And thats all I have to say about that....

Taking stances so early so not you gerain. Giving reads with excessive pressure being placed on you. Certainly not town you.


And your example is blatant misrep. IN your example what happened is that I started pushing you as you would take no stances. I started the wagon although tried breaking up when alert started to look like obvious scum.


And the game is only 2 days old. So you really are cherry picking meta. Since you want to use meta. Look at all my games and tell us if your theory still stands.
I was asked an opinion, I gave it. it wasn't meant to be a strong read on you, I didn't vote or anything.
and was it you who started the wagon on me? I didn't remember that bit,sorry. but even so, you just said in that one you started a wagon and were more active, this game you hadn't done anything like that. so my view on you being much more passive I think was fair

why was it bobbins?

well, first explain to me what bobbins is, because i like this word and want to steal it for future use.

then explain why it was bobbins.
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/bobbins

Just a British phrase meaning something is pants :)
I think a bobbin is something to do with sewing, but It is just a way of saying something isn't much good.

I said in my post 87 that I thought popopo was clutching at straws with their post. I thought they were, for a post in the 1st 100, reading way too much into nothing. I hate people making grand statements about the game Day 1, because you just don't have the info. so that was why I thought it was a bad post. and then youcame along and said it was a good post!

Yes
I am not consciously trying to be better. I haven't been so aggressive in "Day 1 sucks" in this game as I was before, but I still think it does and have been quoting posts when I think people have been overreaching same as before.

Klick, Hoops are more than welcome too as is Una.
so, I looked over Dunn.

there is a bunch of votes being thrown around,
bob
una
bella

and some itching to join other wagons too, some posts saying people are scum. I think between those and their votes over half the town has been scum at some point.

like....I don't like Dunn at all. but I find it hard to believe scum would be this bad, it is just too obvious.
I think i'd rather keep them alive until day 2, I think I would learn more about their place in the game with them placing more and more votes.
does that make sense?

I hardly think it was a grand statement just a read and a little case based on early posts that felt off
I said you were clutching at straws. I stand by that. I don't think I said your post was a grandstatement, but fits in with people making overconfident statements about other people way, way too early in the game.

my conversation with hoopla was me saying it was awkward that they read the same post as I had of yours and they thought it was good.

not sure who I have misrepresented though. you? I said you overreached with your post, and I stand by that view.

I was the first to vote for him (well, other than una's rvs vote) and the first to hop off his wagon, yet both ways he finds me scummy?
yep, find both scummy because using other people's reasoning to easily place a vote I find bad.
and then hopping off quickly to go elsewhere is bad too. I dislike players who move their vote around a lot and tag along following wagons and other people's reads

I feel like you dislike a lot of things that are just inherent to my playstyle. :P Recognize that this one is a bias that is not particularly likely to find scum.

What do you think of Hoops, gera?
I dislike pretty much everyones day 1 play. if I thought people were good at day 1s, then they wouldn't always end up with townie getting lynched.

hoopla - they made a townbloc in post 260. I don't like that. tink this follows 2 different votes before this

posts like 261 and 288 are them being involved in the game by asking other people their opinions.

post 371 - making a group of 5 people all town.

"so far, this wagon looks solid to me, and i haven't seen anything behaviourally to give off town vibes from geraintm; though i will look into him more the longer he remains a candidate."

^^^ they just seem happy to be the player happy to lynch almost anyone day one, they were happy to lynch me and assume everyone else voting me was town too. but how on earth they can a) know I am scum b) know everyone else is town? their reads are just so weak day 1 they are worthless

they had a little bit of an interaction with me over bobbins, but they just let it hang... it is almost like they want to be seen having interaction with everyone but nothing more than superficial

here is where we have commonground.

geraintm's wagon is at feverpitch. i can sense it. i can
feel
it. i don't want to abandon my post yet - especially given he has been quite responsive to pressure.

consider myself spiritually on the dunn wagon. i give it my stamp of approval.
this pings me bad. they feel like scum wanting to get off a wagon they know has a) stalled b) is only going to end up lynching a bad town player. they can keep me alive for later in the game safe in the knowledge I am not athreat to them

then a switch to Dunn to try and get something going there.

post 515 - excuses for behaving differently to what people expect

I have gone through, it feels like half the posts are them asking others for their thoughts, a quarter are hopping off and on wagons and a quarter just fluff.
they are the sort of player I find it hard to get along with at this stage of the game. def closer to being scum in my eyes than town

agree that the wagon that has quickly formed on hoopla is likely to have a high% of townies, it screams of a classic "Day 1 townies looking to lynch someone and scum just letting it happen". I suspect y post has helped with the wagon. noway should it be ended now though without the people una has pointed out chiming in

This is just untrue. Your crown must be made of lead. Replacement for Sujimichi was just the second real vote of the day for me -- either you're not paying attention or you're blowing bubbles. And I don't think you're one not to pay attention.
not just votes. you are spewing reads on everyone (or were when I wrote the post).

Geraintm explicitly stated rather early on that he didn't like it when people hopped around with their votes. I get this as a tell that works generally, but when applied specifically to geraintm it doesn't hold much water.

and the vote hopping, it is when people quickly jum about, using others people's logic to justify their moves, that is what I find bad. just looks like they are trying to get onto any half decent wagon and then later on can blame others if it goes wrong.
if someone is coming up with good reasons for their votes, I mind that much less

because I like having posts like that were people have explicitly said what they think. then, later in the game I can see if they are being consistent with themselves or not, and if not they should have a good reason. it isn't a good look thing for town people to switch their read on someone without a good reason.

im not very good at this game, and most of my reads on people are based on their votes and how they come to them.

I scum read you.

You have not been able to come with any real reason to scum read me. All you have done is say you scum read me for not having the same read on gerain two days into the game. Even I can only assume trying to use posts that were made after my vote happened.

You barely take any in depth stances on any players. Yet were happy to hammer hoopla. When you hadn't even mentioned him. Your only two mentions of him were when you said you liked something from him and when he said he believed the gerain wagon was all town.

You are evasive on you una read. Every time giving no reason. You say you town read una for town content but you never say what town content or what your read on his motives are.


You selectively answer questions and at the same time barely answer the ones you do.




Now on gerain I'm not too sure. He could be scum that feel more confident as I have read his scum games and he is less indecisive and more open to make stances than in his town meta. In his town games he is so indecisive scum would never want to nk, or day kill him. He is some you want to take to lylo.

But the thought i'm having is gerain actually coming out of his shell.
I think my only scum game since I have come back was in a Newbie game, and I was doing what I normally do there in newbie games which is to tell town that lurkers are bad and I may have been more active, but think that is just what is expected of someone who isn't a newbie should do. I don't think I've been scum in any Normal games since I have come back?

and if this is out of my shell then I dunno what i'd be like if I were hibernating.

had a look over popopo's posts, trying to see why they are the leading candidate.

lack of posts I guess is one reason to string them up. only one post is longer than two lines. they have effectively been absent from the game since post 500, half the game.

I like their post 352, but nothing else.
they had a few opinions on people early doors, but not enough to be helpful day 2.

I wouldn't say they are scum, just not very helpful to the town right now.

pushing the wagon onto popopo and also a mention of Dunn.
and then just nothing for the rest of the data except a "why not popopo" post, they just seemed to get themselves onto popopo and no come off.

like, there was nothing to it, I can't see a good reason for them to end up on popopo and just let the lynch happen.

their progression of votes was galron > hooplas > popopo

and none looked good to me now when I look back.
so yeah, just have them in non-town pile

looking over galron
there just wasn't much interaction with popopo.
they got a vote onto hoopla and stuck it there for the second half of the day.

post 694 defended popopo's lurkiness

I didn't like Galron much yesterday (See post 488 and 172). 537 def said to them I didn't like thei rposts. after this they then didn't move their vote I think.

overall - would place them middle of the road at best, their DAy 1 I didn't like though that much.

I guess it does, I was just interested myself in my intereactions with them, as I could remember their creepy icon all the way through the game but noting of what they said

Wanted to look over isis

their switch to lynching popopo wasn't...good
In post 891, Isis wrote:VOTE: popopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopopo
that was their vote. no explanation
In post 944, Isis wrote:I want to flip popo
this later, like giving themselves an out when popopo comes up not scum
In post 1049, Isis wrote:I see it as a scum indicative vote no matter what popo flips.[/quote


there is nothing to their posts, just fluff all the way through. Day 2, they haven't done anything that I can get a read on at all, I cannot understand their thinking at all or what they hope to accomplish today.

they were part of the push on hoopla too, voting for them in 820 and I cannot work out why
In post 820, Isis wrote:I was on my phone so I couldn't investigate thoroughly.

I feel trolled.

VOTE: Hoopla
this was an earlier vote for hoopla
In post 531, Isis wrote:VOTE: Hoopla

Hoopla is who I'd most like to exile.
The way she describes her mens rea with respect having more doubts based on a previous town roll seems like the way mafia would describe the information rather than how town would, even though it's the same information. It's a little bit hard to explain and an intuition thing but it's come up more than one time. I wouldn't be too prideful to deadsheep her if wrong but she's very much front of the pack for me.
and this is again just wishy washy. but everything from isis, over 135 posts is the same. not substance at all
In post 443, Isis wrote:VOTE: Replacement for Sujimichi
another earlier vote in the game. again I cannot undertand why,,,,
In post 165, Isis wrote:VOTE: Hoopla
urgh...just I hate this slot.

@galron

I dislike players who tag people as scum, place lots of votes. If a player ends up thinking 80% of the players are scum then that isn't helpful, and I felt it was what you were doing in the first half ofnyesterfay

trying to look over porkens now

there was a lot of catchups on people
This was the end of it
In post 1109, Porkens wrote:Mmm Bella comes out to small t.


Super scientific goodreads say:

(Gron/isis),<hooplah>+una, flappynips
but they had said earlier I was town but then didn't include me here.
In post 1204, Porkens wrote:VOTE: unabomber that rings contrived to me
first vote. picking on Una for a contrived vote, but there isn't anything to their own.

later reads the all the Bob stuff as town vs town

think they end up as Bella as most likely scum??

I find them hard to read their posts, very bitty and just random non sequitur stuff. do not have them in the town pile

trying to go through isis now, their day 2 posts. too much for me to look through day 1
they were agains the hoopla lynch, so they get points for that.

there are a ton of posts that don't really add much, eventually come around to saying they find bella bad. with a cote

later on their voted for bob

In post 1228, Isis wrote:VOTE: bob3141
and I don't know why. bob hadn't posted since isis' last post, and certainly not since isis had said "Bellaphant is scummy just in general" in post 1202
I don't get the switch to bob

oh wait
In post 1319, Isis wrote:i'm caught up and mad
It is perturbing that people are treating my bob vote as serious and doing wagon analysis
nobody is paying attention there must be 8 scums.
VOTE: Una
Hoopla's behavior is almost unparsable at this point but Una has a hated modifier I guess.
I think the bob/notscience 1v1 is pretty plainly TvT and should be used to solve the game.
It certainly shouldn't be used for "guys I'm not sure which mislynch off of this is most likely to go through, could you guys signal which one you're sympathetic to before I commit?"
I don't think this game is really hard anymore and people are treating it like it is and it's weird.
the bob vote didn't count...but we wer emeant to know that?
but their switch to una seems sorta believable. I want to give them the benefit of the doubt over that one I think

but then later back to bella

overall, they are doing a decent job of not appearing too scummy or too townie. I think there are better places to be voting than here today.

some meetings now, not sure I will have chance to look over anyone else today.
so far, VOTE: bella is the best i've got

I guess people will call it a defense of Bella if she flips red, but I get close to the same feeling from this wagon as I do from popopo's yesterday.
That is unfair to say I voted bella with no reason

This basically mirrors my thoughts..I'm concerned about the level of... construction in hoops' posts (how hard is it to say you were stoned and made a few weird posts?) But like...*shrug*
like, there was nothing to it, I can't see a good reason for them to end up on popopo and just let the lynch happen.

their progression of votes was galron > hooplas > popopo

and none looked good to me now when I look back.
so yeah, just have them in non-town pile
I didn't quote this post in the one I actually voted for bella, but I had clearly gone through their posts and said I hated their lynch vote yesterday.

I stepped away for a day, and I cannot work out what is going on. People asking permission to move their vote? People don't seem to be pushing actual logic on wagons, just instead wanting to randoly consolidate wagons.

Splitting into multiple wagons and then rushing into one "because deadline" is the way to play where scum can scatter however they want.
Agree with this (I think I tried to express this thought myself, but this is better).
But the random screeching of players going "we should be only on 3 wagons" without actually saying why certain wagons are better than others isnt helpful either.

Tried to read galron's post to see if i think I could see a reason to switch to them. They have been under pressure for a while.

Their posts are just...Meh. lots of "it would be bad to lynch me" some posts through aspersions on others but no real pushes to getbother wagons going.
Lots of "this player is doing things people are scum reading me for"

But...there is little overall content. I haven't seen anything explicitly scummy. But little town and has the vibe of someone who just doesn't think they are going to get lynched...

I am fairly sure not science got killed as he was about to give me ice cream and the pair of us were going to be cleared. He wasn't subtle about it and people could work it out. And scum would always kill the more useful player out of the pair of us.

Q: if they had killed them, would I have woken up with ice cream? Or would that have been thwarted?

Yeah....so I think I have basically been playing the last 6 months on this site as a complete idiot. I would like to think that is because I am lulling everyone into a false sense of security and one day it is going to matter and I can turn something I do which is totally stupid into something really smart.
But I actually think I am just bad at this game.

....i honesly thought there would be ice cream :?
I didnt really know what the role did but everyone was saying it would clear the person who was being targeted it and I think I got that and somethig fruit related confused.

Not sure if that was scummy (guess that'd make me scummy too for having these lurking suspicions), or the complete opposite.

Post by geraintm »

going through all the votes I can find that had at least 4 on them, and going to pick out anything interesting I can find

Day1

Bob - Dunn, Emp/not mafia/Klick/not science

3 of these turned into town, all dead and only one left alive in not_mafia

Hoopla's wagon had 6 on it twice

Bella, Isis, Klick/pokens, not science and Una and then switched from bob to Bella

of those on the wagons, Bella, Isis and Una are still alive and everyone else was town

popo was lynched. 2 townies in Dunn and Klick/porkens who later turned up dead. obv Hoopla was on the lynch
the other lynchers were Bella, Isis, Replacement and Una

Bella looks bad on day one. they were on the Galron, Hoopla and Popo wagons
Una looks bad too. On My wagon, the hoopla and popo wagon

Day 2

There was a bella wagon with 5 votes, 3 of whom are townies (me, Porkens and not science) and then Not Mafia and Isis

there was a replacement wagon that had Galron (town) and Hoople and then Bob and Not-mafia

these were at the same time

the eventual Galron wagon was

Porkens and not science (town)
Hoopla
not_mafia, isis and una

day 3

the hoopla wagon had

me
hoopla
isia, bella and una -

they killed night 3 porkens which is kinda weird. they had lynched galron and popo, might have been worth their while keeping them around because of being on previous lynches

thoughts

bella disappeared from wagons day 2
replacement hasn't been on any wagons since the lynch at the end of day 1
una has been in a lot. they were on the hoopla and popo day 1, the galron one day 2 and hoopla day 3

not-mafia
was on loads day 2 - emperor was on basically none day 1. they were on wagons day 2 on bella replacement and galron

bob isn't on many and hasn't been on a lynch all game


isis looks awful

day 1 on the hoopla wagon early, and then the popo lynch
day 2 on the bella, replacement and galron wagons
day 3 the hoopla lynch

ok, I am not overwhelmed with thoughts.

here are how I am reading people's presence on wagons

Bella - on all hoopla wagons, absent day 2 and jumped off the galron wagon before the lynch.

bob - they just aren't on wagons. not on any lynches. if they are scum they have done it very much on the down low

not mafia - didn't vote hoopla day 3.
day 2 on loads of wagons. looks bad

isis

voted hoopla
lynched popo and galron
also on the bella nd replacement wagons day 2
has a similar profile to bella

replacement

lynched popo day 1, not been on any wagons since. similar profile to bob


una

lynched hoopla day 3
on plenty wagons day 1 me and popo, day 2 the galron wagon

I think if bob and replacement are scum then they have outplayed me. they have both basically not been involved in any wagons and have let town kill itself

bella/isis/una

all three have similar profiles.
all 3 voted for hoopla day 1 and lynched them day 3
all three lynched popo
2 lynched galron and the other nearly did

not mafia

they have the unique voting pattern

no votes for hoopla on the wagons
emperor was absent day 1 before they were replaced
day 2 they were on lots of wagons, including bella, me and galron. got off bella early though

they look, to me, the most suspicious out of all the voting patterns

I have them minorly tired with Bella

I can't see me voting for Bob or replacement any time soon.

I have no other info to go on in this game, all I can do is look through past votes and that is what I have done. said I would and so have done so.
any errors in the wagon counts are my own, please point them out if I have made any

I thi k it is likely. It only becomes unlikely if at least one sxumhas basicLly avoided being in any wagons the entire game. That is also likely. But I am pretty much out of ideas in this game in finding scum.from their posts so have tried a different angle.

I've been in a few games now with bob. just gives off the most consistent town vibes all the time. might have to start lynching him early as a policy because I know the game they are scum they'll just have me.

I was close. I am basically convinced my reads should not be the start of any wagon, and scum use me as a way of getting an easy lunch.

I don't know if I have passed your test or what?
considering how close I was to unvoting though, your test was flawed

Is this aimed at me?

I think since I’ve returned to the site I’ve had. String of being VT except my first game back in a newbie game when I was scum
I think the reason I am so often read as town is because I am indeed always town and the reason I am always clueless is because I am always vt

How do you read nm unvote of bella after porkens push bella to l-1?

Now you might town or scum read bella but based on your read on bella. Why do you think a scum nm would unvote in such a way
Is this the bit about not mafia in my summary when I said they jumped off Bella quickly, and was why I had them minority tied to Bella from my second tier?

my feeling btw is that the inability for any wagon to go over the top means scum is likely among the targets.

Daughters tenth birthday today, sorry.

I stand by this. That the wagons are not consolidating or going over the top makes me think they are scum or the votes are scum. Me not being one of the wagons helps with this thinking being honest.

So can you vote for Bella or Una, and I'll join you and we can end this day??
why don't you join me? as I have said I think the wagons are either on scum or voted by scum, I do not want to join anyone. I am very reluctant in this game state to do so.

a lot of people are saying who they think are scum, and not willing to follow votes due to this.

for ease, here is my list, going from worst to best

not mafia
bella
isis/una

bob
replacement

me

the bella wagon is 3 Bob Una and Isis
the Una wagon is 2 Not Mafia and Bella
the not mafia wagon is 2 me and Replacement.

as the bella and una wagons both have 2 of the 4 people I dislike on them, I ain't joining them despite me thinking Bella and Una are bad.

I'm awake now.
Bob dying isn't that much of a surprise to me. I am fairly sure my read a are bad enough that scum are happy for me to still have a vote.
Am more than happy to claim, but I am 95% sure I've been pretty explicit in my role throughout the game. If people want me to go last then I can wait

Well....not sure being honest. I want to vote not mafia, suspect it is like 70/30 to be right. Tonorrow is a day away. I hate the push towards replacement. Fear my interagency is going to cost us now, but feel as town has pretty much had no successful hits on any day on any jnfo the roughly 25% chance we have left seems fair

This is a strange attitude for someone who's constantly saying how flawed their reads always are
Well, I wrote that on the basis that I didn't think we would have a post coming out that had a guilty verdict on someone. I obviously have to eevaluta the game now. Give me some time as sister and family are arriving for the day shortly.

I feel like I should be costanza, but I am more like Indiana Jones. Nothing I do in a game makes any difference :)

I have had too many games where I get bumped from my reads to other people's reads as deadline approaches or to break open stalled games and helping mislynches. I was very clear this game that the people I was reading as most likely scum were the ones also voting for the person I might switch to made it harder for me.
it also was tricky that a game I was following contained Bob, and he just won it as scum and I had them as my most town read in this game. I admit I got paralysed.
