I haven't been paying close attention to this guy because he's my slot, but I don't remember him saying anything about likeabauss.In post 343, cAPSLOCK wrote:My internet access is spottier than I thought it would be. I am on the blue ridge parkway near Mt Pisgah.
That said I HAVE been paying attention. I have been leaning to voting for likeabauss for reasons I have previously mentioned as well as some recent developments. I think Jason's recent catch of likeabauss wanting to vote because a player is experienced is especially damning. I don't know if my vote would be a hammer so I will hold off for a few moments. Day one is over really soon, yes?
He was clearly a clueless player who did not invest enough time in this game. Luckily you have me now.- Grimgroove

I have never townread you. I backed you down from top scum read due to ambivalence over my objectivity when being obsessively and irrationally tunneled.
Here fferyllt is so kind to show all of us that she hasn't got a real case against likeabauss. Just go over those postys of her and try to discern a case.- Grimgroove

What I'm wanting to see currently is caps's vote down on his biggest scum read as I'm really not liking his vote history. (which was a vote on a lurker and then the vote on jason after I joined the game) I have no real idea of where he is standing.- Grimgroove

Claiming the likeabauss-lynch is not to your liking anymore without offering any reasonable alternative is not exactly trying to stop his lynch.
This is just really good scumplay, well thought-out positioning in a likeabauss-lynch thaty you knew was inevitable at that point.
Really well done.

Those two posts by sikon - the angry/exasperated one and the immediately apologetic one - were unmistakeably what they were - a new player floundering in a way that new town players flounder. Other players mistook sikon's earlier play, so I can accept that the towniness didn't shine through for everyone the way it did for me. But those two posts? No.In post 445, Grimgroove wrote:
There was no mention of his read on sikon anywhere when giving comments about Cheery Dog in 249. Why would you not include something that afterwards sounds pretty crucial to you?In post 443, fferyllt wrote:

I am frustrated by my inability to have a meaningful impact on the game at the moment. This frustration is clouding my judgement, and causing me to act in a way that doesn't seem to be helpful to the interests of the town. It seems that other people here have a better idea of how to scumhunt than I do, so I am just going to step out of their way, let them do their thing, learn from their example, and hopefully come back strong once I better understand how this game is played, if not by the end of this game, then in future games that I am involved in.
But I now do have a strong town read on you after that rage post. I guess I may have another look, but nonetheless just stopping hunting helps less that seemingly hunting badly.
(even if it's just on how people are attacking you and how that may help reads on them later in the game)
How?
In that read on him you provided you hardly voiced any concrete concerns (as I mentioned earlier), but please tell me how this relates to 249.
Because his earlier read of sikon was inexplicable to me if he's town. It boggles my mind when experienced players misread newbs who are so clearly town.
I am feeling kinda similarly about jason at the moment.
My best guess of the scum team is 2 of cheery, jason and Lynx.
One of the things I've been working on in my own game in the Newbie format is getting better at sorting new players. I'm not as good at it as I'd like, but I've improved a lot.
If cheery had ignored or mislabeled sikon's reaction, my scum read would have solidified considerably. While his play bugs me and sets off alarms, it's not for solid and easy to describe reasons.Amid the pressure of great events, a general principle gives no help.

Skipped this before. There isn't really a case against me. It's more of a convenience hang. We are almost at deadline, and need to hang somebody. I'm not being hung because of flip flops, a slip, or anything scummy. I'm being hung because I made a case I believe in and stuck with it. There's no defense to be made. My reasoning and logic has been laid out and I've answered all questions honestly and openly. Conviction, like I stated earlier in the game.In post 356, cAPSLOCK wrote:Is it bad strategy to defend yourself when you are l-2? As far as I can tell likeabauss is doing a good time building a case against another player but is not spending much time talking about being l-2?
It is not a rhetorical question.
I think this nearly concludes my catch-up, the derphammer of my slot is just that, DERP. Big one though.
So, that's it. I think it's clear who I'll be focusing on for the remainder of this daystage.

Ok, still not done apparently, you guys sure kept busy.
Another gentle nudge here, despite having claimed on the same page you did not like a likeabauss-lynch that much anymore. One-line statements like that stand out and with an approaching deadline it's all certain people need to place that hammer. cAPSLOCK was "certain people".In post 390, fferyllt wrote:

Maybe it just looked shady to him. But to me, his play though short, felt lurky. And it read like he was implying I should stop "stirring things up", like its a bad thing.
That is classic scum behavior IMO.
I mean, maybe I shouldn't have quoted all of it, but it is CLEAR who the drivers behind likeabauss' lynch were, and it is CLEAR that they had dubious intentions.

Holy crap that's a lot of calling the dead town obvtown (ygrim has now become the 3rd highest poster in this game)and paired with cAPS's inability to really get any hunting done, my suspicion is now quite rife on that slot. At least I know where your slot stands though.
Still slightly scummy, but with the sheer level of inactivity that plauged the middle of yesterday, I can't say any reasons for them - I was probably more caught out my who I considered my highest town read after reading through the pages before my replace in not posting for ages due to a sickly mod.In post 435, Grimgroove wrote:Just for fun:
@Cheery Dog: what IS your read on fferyllt?Why did you not question her scumread on you? Why did you not question the mitigations of her "arguments" against you?
As far as I've seen, her arugment against me is something weak do to with kingdavid's play - I didn't see what exactly caused it and I don't want to be defending predecessors, so unless it's actually from my own play, it means nothing.Everything happens for a reason, except maybe football.

He's difficult to engage, and his play is ambiguous enough that any alarms he sounded were pretty mild. I am the only player who directly questioned him at all, and keeping the engagement going wasn't easy. He seemed off the radar screens of other players. There were really only 2 likely lynches yesterday, once the replacements were plugged in and the game sort of recovered from the server outage. Maybe a sikon wagon could have gained steam, but I tried to keep the wheels kicked off of that wagon.In post 467, Grimgroove wrote:Why was this not a problem to you before?Amid the pressure of great events, a general principle gives no help.
