lol, no, you're back to null.

My reason to vote you loses much of its luster when you were V/LA and that was a legitimate reason explaining your pbp catch up presence, which led to a deficit in what looked to me like legitimate hunting.

We'll see where you go from here.
I'm going to need you to explain your vote in more detail then, because you were ambivalent about my reasoning apart from the wagon analysis bit, which was fundamentally predicated on town!Deimos = True, as you seemed to admit already in ("if you assume Deimos is town..."). How is it then that my wagon analysis is what convinced you most?

lol so now we're trying to make it look like I'm attacking you in an ad hom so you can play the victim.

you're bad at being scum because you're being so scummy in this push.

Because I'm a big believer in wagon analysis, so I'm willing to assume you're town for the sake of a wagon analysis in D1 because it's better than the other options available.

^^^ To be clear, if I didn't move you to null I wouldn't assume you were town just for the sake of a wagon analysis, but I also probably wouldn't have unvoted you.

I've been burned for doing this before, but it wasn't in D1 and was later in the game, which was particularly dumb of me. But I'm more comfortable doing it here given it's D1.

This was sarcasm, which I'm not sure I've ever seen from you.

The rest of your post was edgier in general but that part was the most remarkable departure, to me.

@deimos: 588 isnt even your post. and your iso is full of annoyingly long posts that i really dont wanna go into.

@game: sorry, this game is kinda dead and im having a hard time putting in high levels of effort. especially since the only wagon seems to be shit and the content is mostly a pissing contest.

@crayons: yes i can be a troll. thanks for noticing. im gonna take your refusal to find an example as proof that im right. now i dont even need to go check. thanks.

@abr: thanks for sheeping my wagon. I guarantee good times and a more interesting thread in the pages ahead. real quick tho: why did you go from sheeping FB to voting him?

@everyone, no UR bad. also, ur mom. got em.

I really object to the notion that Looker's playstyle doesn't meet the standard to be sortable. It's possibly more difficult to sort than some people's natural style but there's always enough there that you could sort it if you were smart enough. I think categorizing him with people who never care enough about winning their games to be sortable would be gross and I don't think you should ask people to adopt a totally different way of playing

obviously I am still catching up

Your premises is incorrect. I read her commentary as saying that his playstyle in this game is indicative of being scum.
Deimos's characterization is closer to the truth. I could reason he's infinitesmaly (sp?) more likely to be scum off what he's posted, but mostly he's just unreadable. I've seen him be town with horrific isos, and read a game where he was lyncher and never provided enough that anyone had any chance of figuring that out.

Deimos doesn't seem to think it's optimal play to kill unreadable players first, but I think it is. Intuitively I feel like that's even truer in nightless but I can't math out a proof and maybe it's tied with nightful (of course, you often see people argue it becomes suboptimal in a closed setup with a high likelihood of providing a vig)

Does anyone have more context for how they expect ABR to play? I thought I heard he was like, good at mafia, but his participation here is bizarre at best.

I am wondering whether we should lynch him on an expectation he rolled scum with people he didn't want to cooperate with or something.

Obviously I don't have remarkably compelling reasons to want to lynch him, but he's not posting much you can work with any which way.

The last naked vote was on an UTR (by my casual tally), hard to view that as redeeming

Oh, well then that's just a policy lynch reason which I don't agree with.

You think he's going to be completely unreadable all game or won't get replaced?

abr will contribute more later. my understanding and experience is that he lurks early, and then at some point he'll see something and go nuts. and i dont like your reasoning here either.
