91, 93
These are the first two really scummy posts from BBmolla. He, despite being an experienced player, disagrees with basic principles of mafia to justify an anti-town stance on quicklynching, even though he must know that quicklynching wastes a Day and is only in scum's interest. In the second he said scum would defend a buddy doomed from Day 1, and argued the pros of a 2birds quicklynch if he was town! I really can't see any of that coming from town.

216
This is the worst post of all, and was completely ignored by everybody else. He asks another player if he has a power! What townie wants to reveal if someone has an active power? This strikes me as semi-subtle rolefishing he thought(correctly...) he could get away with.

361
This is the first time he called me scum,
coincidently
after I was put under a little pressure. I expect he was hoping I would go off him when he first responded to me, because before then he didn't give an opinion at
all
. This blatent opportunism was also ignored.

524
If BBmolla was trying to draw the nighkill, why has he posted 0 reasons for lynching anyone? Whenever he's voted since the guilty child his "reasoning" was some variation of:"his posts suck", even though his own posts were rolefishing, fluff and going on about his role.

Also numberQ has two posts, including what he says was the hammer, so that needs to be looked into as well. Plus, of course, Oversoul. And I'd like to look at the people who were saying "No, the case against GNR was bad" (hint: It wasn't) because that group could easily consist of scum who knew he'd flip town and were "defending" him for towncred. So that's my agenda for tomorrow.


Agenda completed. Results thusly:

CCV
's slot seems town, or at least I see nothing scummy about it.

NumberQ
- need more content. Two posts does not scum make, but another "come in to hammer" either is indicative of a scum or, well, a worst role. But even if it is a role ("has to hammer when the option is there") then he needs to be removed before LyLo at the latest, so the scum can't use him to quicklynch. I'll be putting a vote here if he's the next hammer.

Oversoul
: I find it interesting that his anger over being voted seems to parallel that of Hippo's. Possibly a connected 3rd-party group? Lookit:

Teleporting Speed Hippos wrote:if I get less votes than the night number, I remain unsigned which gives me special power X.


I could see that "special power" not being particular to Hippo, but rather, to an entire 3rd-party group, where they collectively get something if they meet some kind of voting criteria.

Regardless, what I completely don't understand is how he went from "I personally do not find BB scummy" to thinking that because Tierce is voting for Oversoul,
BB
is worthy of a vote, especially instead of Tierce. I just don't follow that flow
at all
.

Now onto those who said the case against GNR's was bad. There were two: Shadowgirl and Red Panda.

Shadowgirl
, who could have commented after the wagon started, completely avoided saying anything about it until 471 where she thought the hammer was done and says "despite the somehow 'incredibly obvious' tells that he's scum, I'm totally calling that he's town".

In 479 she says "you would think that he would try and pay attention to not contradict himself". Yes, Shadowgirl, I do think that if he were scum he would try not to contradict himself, and that's why I (and others iirc) called it a "slip", as compared to "an intentional action". And I've caught scum who did exactly that, slip because they weren't paying attention, and contradicted themselves.

Shadowgirl, why did you not say anything about the wagon until after you thought it was over?

[Shadowgirl's V/LA ends when mine begins, so we probably won't be able to discuss for over a week. Still plenty of time before the deadline]

Red Panda
was in an argument with TSP most of the wagon, but gives his reasons for not voting in 422. I'm not sure whether he means ISO #10 or 11 when he refers to "eleventh post" but at least he says he likes the Elmo kill, giving a reason for thinking GNR was town (unlike Shadowgirl who gave no reason).

I do find a contradiction, though: In 203 he says he's going to vote Agent_Ireland "tomorrow", which is today -- so where's the vote?

Also, Red Panda, does chimera's leaving the game change your opinion of his slot being scum? And is Foxace36 posting in your QT? Because he sure ain't posting here...

[Full disclosure: When ISOing Red Panda I didn't look at the arguments back and forth with Hippo, because of Hippo's non-town flip]

I don't understand. TSH is dead, why would anyone be sending him a message?

And what restriction are you referring to? No matter, the answer is no -- I'm under no restriction that I'm aware of.

Right, yeah, TSH is dead. I was meaning the TSH votes received restriction, and change that from message to TSH to message to your third party buds.

So wait, you're using the hypothesis I came up with to say "Hey! Do you have that hypothesized thing?"

That's just -- weird. I'll ISO you next. (With so few posters, I have to look somewhere. But then again, I guess you do too.)

Meh.

VOTE: Phillamon

He has reminded me of his need for imminent death.

Also, BBmolla did claim 2-shot, so I'm okay with keeping him alive, for now. I am not really convinced, but he's not the best lynch.

What I was saying was, if such a hypothesis were correct, then presenting it as a hypothesis would be a great way to confirm to buddies. As I said, my suspicious side says that. Feel free to ISO me anyway.

Amrun's vote spurred me to look at Philammon's iso, since I realized I haven't been following him too closely. Here's what I came up with.

Iso #11, #14, #19, #39
Really tentative and strange speculation, sometimes including rolefishing. It looks like scum trying to gain an information advantage.

Iso #34
Trying to set up a policy lynch.

Iso #35
Why me = fry me anyone? It might be a tad outdated, but a request for a case is often considered a scumtell because town should be more confident that there are no reasons for a vote on him/herself.

Iso #40/41
What? Looks like really weird flailing.

unvote vote: Philammon


I'm willing to see where this goes.

Phillammon wrote:As for 2birds, I just had a thought: How does vigjester sound? As in, he wins if he's vigged?


This is a nonsensical hypothesis. Why would the mod confirm someone likely to draw a vig kill and give them a win like that?

Phillammon wrote:I would vote you here and now, but it's not worth the effort on this device to get square brackets up. Also, you're basically confirmed innocent,


WTF is that?

That was directed to GNR. You said you'd vote him if brackets were easy to do on your device, and in the same post you called him (from out of the blue with no explanation) that he was confirmed innocent. Makes. No. Sense.

Phillammon wrote:Would it be scummy to try and detonate Moneybags?


Protip from someone who's been there as a newbie: Don't ask people if something would be scummy. That tends to make them think you're scum, whether you are or you aren't.

I'm up to your ISO 14, where you tell town PRs not to target you. I still haven't seen anything resembling scumhunting. It takes until your ISO 360, where you just QFT CCV's suspicions of Haddock. Then in 391, you call him your strongest scumread. At that point, it looks like he's not only your
only
scumread, but the only read you've expressed
at all
.

Phillammon wrote:For a quick reference, did anyone get ditto'd? Cause that'd be a really easy way to prove that I'm not a third party here and now, I imagine


Explain 1) How this would prove you're not a 3rd party, and 2) Why you didn't say it would prove you're not scum?

And that's it. 41 posts, nothing to show for it?

Unvote

Vote: Phillamon


pedit: Oh look I'm not the only one. And make that 42 posts. Although I should respond to that last one: It would confirm buddies? Huh? Don't you think, if I were what you're accusing me of, I would already know who my buddies are?

It's not invalid; it's just not convincing. Plus, Phillamon needs to die for role AND scumminess.

p-edit: Idk if it matters to you, but I've been voting for Phillamon since yesterday and BBmolla was just temporary detour. For your calculations, whatever they may be.

I voted him yesterday. Got shit for it, and I've had enough negativity on this site for a while. So I figured instead, I'd let him try to defend himself again. Plus, that's all setup speculation. I'd rather focus on what I see as more actual scummy behavior. Like phillamon's.

Right, fair enough, the heat is on, time to claim the restriction:

It's 1 shot.

I have one shot ditto'ing, then I'm effectively a VT. My role name is Green Slime, but that doesn't help much given it appears not to be in the original thread. I'll admit my posts have looked fairly scummy. I'll freely admit I've been extra speculative/paranoid because of the nature of the game. So yeah. My fault.

Pardon me, I'm green goo, not slime. But I am not a third party. Just did a search, apparently this role name has some history on the site.

Surely that should be a dead giveaway that I'm *not* the normal version of the goo?

I did analyze where it came from -- that's where my whole "3rd party party line" theory's coming from.

As to your case against him, it's a little tough for me because remember where I moved my vote off of -- BBMolla. Who brought you into the game. I'm not convinced about either of your alignments, and your defending of BB so strongly, when all you claim is a neighbor relationship with him, makes me suspicious of you. But I only have so much time (and that's going to be the story this week, leading up to my V/LA) and I had a published agenda from yesterday that I wanted to get through. I did that, but didn't see anything strong enough in what I looked at today to place a vote.

But then phil came in with his bizarre accusation so I chose to look at him and let the BB/Tierce/Oversoul/whoever else storyline lay dormant until more people than you commented on it. And then I found scummy activity, and I only have one vote, so I'm trying to use it effectively.
