Warning number 1.

And no they aren't, everyone has been complaining about Palisade's scumminess. The only reason he was left alive for so long was due to accurate cop results on actual scum.

I am not confirmed scum, I just fucked up and everyone is jumping onto that being a scumtell. That said, I do appreciate the people voting Palisade.

Mastermind of Sin was warned for post #933; first warning of three.

@mod, can we use Morse code in our votes and unvotes? The rules say that we can only unvote/vote in this phase so I don't see how it would violate that specific rule.

[DemonHybrid]

No messages of any kind. I want no communication.

If the question is "Can we put our votes in Morse code?" then no, because I can't read Morse and damned if I'm going to translate every vote.

For future reference, make sure you (and everyone else) PMs any and all questions to me during Mortal Kombat phases just to be safe with the amount of information being let out.

[Oversoul]

To prove whether or not getting kills is actually part of this game, Palisade, when you are at L-1 submit

Hara-Kiri

That is the self fatality found in all games. I am almost positive that getting kills is not important and DH did it just for a different mechanic.

Dang it. DANG IT ALL TO THE NETHERWORLD.

I went V/LA Thursday. I was counting on my partner to post. TS hasn't posted, either in here, or in the thread. (Kinda wondering why we weren't prodded, actually. ) We've had zero chance to scumhunt so far, but I noticed something.

EVERYONE:

Treat a hammer as a scumclaim

. We have five days until deadline; you can wait 24 hours for me to finish a reread

.

But needless to say, I still think this was a lolfail townVtown and that Oversoul is indeed town.

[Palisade]

SCRUTINIZING TWO QUICKTOPICS: (Pine and I used a topic at the beginning, and we switched to a new QT when TwistedSpoon replaced him.)

About one third of the votes are policy (scummy), one third are legitimate scumhunters who've misread us (town), and the other third? Seems like they're there just for the heck of it. (Case-by-case for those.)

An old quote. I still think this has a significant chance of being correct.

I'm not familiar with pre-existing Grudge Matches before this game started, what's the deal with CooLDoG and Fate?

Vote: CooLDoG

As explained, this post shows extreme cognitive dissonance between the first paragraph and the second. To paraphrase?

"What's the deal with

Cooldog

and Fate?"
"Oh, and I'm going to go after Cooldog, by the way."

Clashing. Thoughts. So. Painful. THIS GUY SHOULD NOT LIVE TO SEE DAY THREE. HE IS CONFIRMED SCUM.

In addition to the cognitive dissonance, there's the additional scum Motivation behind his post--he tries to look pro-town by defusing the Cooldog/Fate situation. Key words, "tries", and "look". He is actually doing nothing to help, and as the cognitive dissonance shows, he actually makes it worse.

THIS GUY MIGHT AS WELL HAVE SCUMCLAIMED.

Actually, it only takes one vote on someone else to make that person a kombatant as well since the rules state the two players with the highest amount of votes go against each other. Technically, the player getting the most votes will more than likely get to choose their opponent if all other votes are on him, which is why I think they get to talk during the Kombat phase (it allows the person with the most votes to build a case against his opponent).

As mentioned, this is fluff. It has a scum motive--Togeloo is trying to appear helpful. When really, it's contentless padding.

THIS GUY NEEDS TO DIE PRONTO.

I still feel this is valid.

Vote: GhostWriter

Read the rules kthx

Remember how GhostWriter was null for 16? There was something which could make him scum, but something that indicated he was town--this reinforces the latter. Not reading the rules is a trend far more frequently observed from town than from scum. Amrun should realize this. It's common sense. As scum, you want to know the rules, specifically to avoid being called out on this. You want to be careful and not get caught. As town, you tend to be a little more carefree and don't read things as closely.

It's not a 100% tell, and GhostWriter's particular misunderstanding of the lynch system is an extremely minor version of it (hence why it was mostly null), but Amrun exaggerates it to be stronger than it was...to use it as a scumtell against GhostWriter, rather than a town-tell. This shows extreme scum motivation.

Strong scumread.

Actually. Amrun's confirmed town from this. She can't be Black Dragon, and GhostWriter was Earthrealm. This was not a bus.


Posting this now in case someone ignored my request and already hammered. I'm still reviewing; this was in our old QT, and QTs have gems in them.

[Palisade]

SECRET READS;

MOD CONFIRMED SCUM: MASTIN

HHAAHHEHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

THE DEATH OF MASTIN HAS ARRIVED BY MY HAND

FOS: EVERYONE NOT VOTING MASTIN

VOTE MASTIN

And Ironically Enough, Ludi's extreme hatred of one half of this hydra has lead both halves to conclude that Ludi is solidly town. We both feel that Ludi would not be focusing purely on Mastin if he were scum, because it'd be ASKING for us to tunnel on him. Since he chose to do so, anyway, it means that Ludi is solidly town.

Strong town-read.

BTW, this still applies. Ludi is solidly town.

STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM MASTIN. I DO NOT WANT TO READ WALLS.

We came to the mutual conclusion that this made Nero Cain town, because he was trying to stop our lynch for--quite frankly--selfish reasons. Once more, we come to the same line of thought as on Reck and Ludi--that if Nero were scum, him defending us for this would only attract attention to himself. Bonus points for doing it in all caps.

Town-read.

This, however, I'm not as sure on. Will be reviewing. (I'm going to pull an all-nighter if nobody hammers me. If I go down, I go down scumhunting, thankyouverymuch.)

CooLDoG (11) - Darox,

Albert B. Rampage, Fate

, Toogeloo,

xRECKONERx,

Ghostwriter

, Oversoul,

Palisade

, Internet Stranger, T-Bone,

Amrun

This was the peak of the Cooldog wagon. Coincidentally enough, our reads here are Town-scum-town-scum for the first half of it. But that's 2/7; there needs to be one more. Amrun's joining the wagon fills up that need.

This makes sense, because you don't get this close to a lynch with only town names. You need scum support.

The names might've changed, the conclusion has not. This needs 2-3 scum, one from each faction minimum. GhostWriter takes care of one Earthrealm, but we need one Black Dragon here MINIMUM, if not two. {Darox, Toogeloo, IS, (Oversoul), T-Bone} contains 1-2 scum, probably two.


Posting this since once more, I don't want my work to be wasted by someone hammering me before I post.

[Palisade]

Scum didn't read the first couple pages and see a Miller claim already and thought they could get away with one themselves.

unvote;
vote: springlullaby

This reeks of scum bussing their buddy who just effed up in the hopes of getting town-cred.

By the way, how have you not read your PM? You had to confirm through it before we started playing the game. I imagine you had to have at least read through to that part, right?

Further pursues this lynch. It feels like Togeloo KNOWS the claim is fake already. Like he wants to get town-credit for nailing the scumbuddy who royally screwed up.

Obviously, we were wrong about Spring being scum (she's confirmed town), but I need to look into this some more, to see if he's scum-thinking-he-nailed-opposite-scum.

Statement 1 says you think you both are Millers (if you think BL is town, then you think he is Miller).
Statement 2 tries to discredit BL's claim to being a Miller.

Passive Aggressiveness. Strengthens our scumread on him. It's like he wants to be given credit for nailing spring...while not strongly pushing for her death, leaving open the possibility of her getting out of it.

Vote: Bunnylover Lynch all claimed millers.

Fails to address Spring.

He's saying that pointing out mod errors is not scumhunting. duh.

Fonz, take your shiny white armor, sword, and shield elsewhere. We need no White Knight. (This trend continues...)

I'm aware that SL claimed miller too; Bunnylover is however scummier. See how that works?

No, we don't. You said "lynch all claimed millers", and failed to mention spring AT ALL. Not even a casual "spring's is more believable". Nothing. You. Ignored. Spring. Completely.

We'll get back to Fonz's stances later, but he is scum.

BACK TO FONZ:

I have, and I see an effort at scumhunting. The slot seems to be getting attacked because one head referred a question about a comment the other made to the head that made it. That's not scummy, that's hydra play.

This is about as ultimate as White Knighting gets. HE'S EFFING WHITE KNIGHTING A

HYDRA

WHO HAS ONE HEAD BE

MASTIN

!

Anyone else see the problem here?

He knows we'll flip town, and him defending us is an attempt to make himself look good after the fact. "Told you Pal was town."

"Maybe that's just how Fonz plays?"

DUDES.

HE CALLED FOR WISDOM OF THE CROWDS ON ALL THINGS MASTIN BEFORE THE GAME BEGAN! HE

TRIED TO VOTE MASTIN OUT OF THE GAME,

YET NOW IS DEFENDING OUR SLOT

. There's no way that comes from town. AB-SO-EFFING-LUTELY NO. DANG. WAY. It's Cognitive Dissonance at its most extreme.

FONZ IS CONFIRMED SCUM.

Fonz's refusal to touch the fact that SL also claimed miller and proceeded to not give details EVEN AFTER BL WAS CALLED ON THE SAME THING is so lovely to see. SL is definitely going up with Pali now. We get an SL scumflip at any point, Fonz has got to be a buddy.

Has officially moved to town for this.

Right, so if Fonz is scum, then it has to be Black Dragon; I don't think GhostWriter would bus in this manner.

I also think I can get good info on Toogeloo out of this: both of them went heavily against Spring. If the Earthrealms/Black Dragons legitimately believed they had caught an enemy scum fakeclaiming miller, it should be easy enough to spot it.


Posting once more, same reason.
