Newbie 1419 - GAME OVER

[Flammus]

I think Verbs vote is straightforward. He doesn't like Gaidens post count/effort ratio. I'll do already on depth analysis later.

I don't like Flammus coming in on defending Verbs. Let players speak for themselves.

It was more of "I don't see anything scummy in this." I didn't mean to defend him, just merely provide a theory. Are RVS votes acceptable at this stage? I don't believe so, so that's why I provided a quick thought on his post.

explain

[Verbs]

Yeah... i'm confused too.

23 posts and only a couple of them have much thought put into them. way too much lurking.

[JKMatthews]

@JKM, Really, you cannot see town motivation behind analyzing players early? If you didn't want MM lynched, like you claimed, then you just immediately turned your attention to the first player to post content and attacked. That doesn't make much sense either.

This is a ridiculous generalisation. I turned my attention to you because of your

specific

analysis that I thought was terrible and looked like friend-making rather than actual analysis...

explain

myself and several people I play with frequently are known for having a fair amount of fluff with some scattered content. It's not the most optimal play, but not posting content is a null tell.

@mod: RL happened, replacing out

[Titus]

@JKM, you never highlighted anything terrible about the analysis. That's because the analysis wasn't terrible. You're stretching.

[Amrun]

phokdapolees replaces SXTLHGaiden, effective upon posting.

Hi

[Titus]

Welcome phokdapolees! Any chance you have a nickname you like?

[phokdapolees]

Hey everyone! I just got lynched in my first newbie game, 1412 (also being modded by Amrun), so I signed up as a replacement for this game. I still need to read over all the posts so far and catch up, after that I'll tell everyone what I think so far.

Welcome phokdapolees! Any chance you have a nickname you like?

You can call me phok.

Do not talk about ongoing games. I know you are dead, but the game isn't over. This is a common confusion for newbies, so don't panic. This is an official warning. Until a game is declared over by a mod, pretend it doesn't exist. Don't do it again and you'll be fine.

You high? I questioned it a whole bunch...

[phokdapolees]

Heading to bed, I'll finish catching up and post what I think some time tomorrow.

DONT TALK ABOUT ONGOING GAMES

I don't feel town would come up with this method of deciding on who is scummy and who isn't, do you get what I'm saying?

I do. My hesitation lies in the fact that it could be something that could be "objective" and the fact that he isn't using those reasons to vote m-m, only to figure out whether the gambit is scum-oriented or town oriented.

Nacho, Brian, what do you think about Gaiden? notscience?

notscience seems town so far, I generally understand his thought process so far even if we only see flashes of it. I can talk about it if you'd like, but I think that he'll be an easier player to sort out D2 when I'm likely dead and he's forced to take more of a leading role. What I will say is I did like his suspicion of Verbs while attacking the wagon itself, and I did like that he picked up on scummy-JKM before anyone else.

Gaiden is more null, hasn't really engaged the game in any significant way (where I feel that at this point, Verbs actually has). He is a very reactive player and his votes have been opportunistic, so I'd lean scum for now but nothing really magical has stood out to me.

It was simply my way of encouraging those who were suspicious to remain suspicious

So you took the route of "have the replacement claim and then kill the slot" as opposed to pushing the replacement after they come in...? That's a hard pill to swallow, honestly.

VOTE: shii

this vote pretty much just sucks.

[notscience]

this vote pretty much just sucks.

Why

[Nachomamma8]

shii is town and you should have figured that out five pages ago.

[notscience]

I disagree

I'm still bugged by the sudden interest in my vote on you

[Nachomamma8]

then you probably should have brought that up 8 pages ago instead of now.
and you should probably look at the information that Shii's produced since then and analyze it or comments on it because the point you have now is outdated and wasn't that good initially.

Sorry about that! Didn't realize it would be that big of a deal if I said that, but I'll refrain from it in the future.

Pertaining to the actual game, I just finished catching up on everything, and here's what I think so far (forgive me if I mix up facts or something like that, it's hard absorbing 271 posts in a short amount of time). Nacho and Shii are my strongest town reads so far, both are actively scumhunting and analyzing information accurately. I'm also getting the feeling that Brian is town, he has a lot of reasoning behind his actions, and his analyses have been better than I would expect for a newbie. I get the vibe that Flammus is town too based off of his posts alone, but that gambit in the beginning by Mail still makes me a little suspicious. I'm not sure exactly what to think of Titus, some actions seem pro-town, some seem anti-town, null on this one. Verbs, null-scum in my opinion, seems suspicious because of the supposed reasoning behind Mail's gambit, but that's not enough to make me too suspicious of him. I'm suspicious of JKMatthews and notscience the most, JKM because of the situation with Mail's replacement and asking for a lynch, and notscience because of low levels of activity and not much reasoning behind the vote for Shii.

[phokdapolees]

Also, I will be V/LA from tomorrow to Sunday night/Monday morning, EST.
