A uPick of Ice & Fire - Day 12 - #REKT?

[Goat on a Raft]

goat people - I do not even remotely want this to be true but he is scum I am pretty sure of it and it makes me want to cry. strongest scumread

I'm also growing more paranoid of Goat; I think I may be unintentionally giving them a pass because CDB is the Coolest Dude.

i think no matter what goat posts anymore im gonna be reading it as scum, no matter how objectively solid it is. its 1 of those reads i dont want to have but its gonna fester like fuck and color my judgments on him for a long time 2 come.

Right, this is getting ridiculous. If

anyone

would like to explain why we're more likely to be scum than town, please feel free, so that we may point out that you are wrong because

come on, guys

.

If you have a problem with our not having strong scumreads, wake up. We are 43 pages into the game, with 24 voters voting for 12 people. The largest wagon has four votes.

There are no obvious scum.

We are wagoning someone not in our now-quite-extensive list of townreads and you can all fucking deal with it.

[Goat on a Raft]

@Goat - if you want a good wagon, the Amrun one is right here for you. Why avoid it in favor of Safety?

Also, Amrun was one of those I was waiting on and assuming that I'd get a read eventually and I

think

she's just done enough to make me settle on town. But maybe don't quote me on that just yet.

Amrun is in the 'town for today' pile.

@ thor

1. town is capable of subterfuge too. and often does. is that the axis you are spinning from? that only scum do this? I think not, you are too experienced for that.
2. I have no idea what he is capable of, why the wking?
3. refracted sunlight

I like you. Can I keep you?

Also you made me realize that this game is far too long for me to not have read it thoroughly lately but now I'm having too much fun spiting Nacho~

[Eddard Stark]

I stopped believing in gods the day I saw the Windproud break up across the bay. Any gods so monstrous as to drown my mother and father would never have my worship, I vowed. In King’s Landing, the High Septon would prattle at me of how all justice and goodness flowed from the Seven, but all I ever saw of either was made by men.

With 24 alive it takes 13 votes to lynch

• Deadline Date: 1st of October at 17:05 EDT
  
• Deadline Countdown: (expired on 2013-10-01 17:05:01)
  
• Thor and Benmage are V/la

ooba has not responded to his prod. Will begin to look for a replacement. If he posts in the meantime he may keep his slot.

[quadz08]

I still don't like Zdenek. Amrun has moved into nullish territory, though that may be due to her being less of a presence in-thread.

I'm also growing more paranoid of Goat; I think I may be unintentionally giving them a pass because CDB is the Coolest Dude.

so if I tried to push a goat lynch through would you still support it even tho we both would cry cos cdb and av are the coolest dudes?

can you help me try?

lets see what comes of it

VOTE: goat people

See I was gonna hop on here to see what happened and then you moved your vote off of it too fast. Jerk.


Goat's response to the mild increase in pressure on them seems... strong. Filing that away for future reference more than anything.

[macmollie]

44 pages for me to read?

you guys are awesome!

should be done with it tonight hopefully.

[Tierce]

From experience, it is mightily irritating when you're Town and people have the vaguest excuses to vote you out of what seems like nothing but paranoia. The reaction is strong, yes, but anyone that has gone through that knows how

annoying

the situation is. CDB's reaction reads like honest frustration.

[quadz08]

Yes, I know that. I've been there (like I said, I get lynched D1 a

lot

). That's why it's being "filed away for later." It's to analyze in context of future behavior.

[Thor665]

@ thor

1. town is capable of subterfuge too. and often does. is that the axis you are spinning from? that only scum do this? I think not, you are too experienced for that.
2. I have no idea what he is capable of, why the wking?
3. refracted sunlight

1. Nothing I said indicated that.
2. ...um, I am defending him because of the reasons I have already described to you for thinking he is town? If you have no idea what he is capable of why not just accept the defense and move on or do something t educate yourself?

[macmollie]

1. you are right. how am I supposed to lay hyperbolic traps if you keep evading them? it doesn't make you town tho it just makes you nimble.
2. cos I think he is scummy.

yabbut your premise is based on that alfred is not that good of a scum player or he and benny are scummates?

you never adequately addressed this.

[Syryana]

Well hallefuckinglujah, mollie finally showed up. Looking forward to your catchup.

In other news, people should stop wasting time on Thor and vote SafetyDance.

Garruk, your god speaks.

Vote.

Fucking.

SafetyDance.

[Garruk Relentless]

Well, it's just as unsubstantial as the other vote. Here you go, SyrGod.

VOTE: SafetyDance.

This game is still annoying me, I am collecting quite a few town reads from people, but I am having trouble finding scumreads. And all the wordswordswords are boring. I feel like it's 2008 all over again in this game.

[Thor665]

1. you are right. how am I supposed to lay hyperbolic traps if you keep evading them? it doesn't make you town tho it just makes you nimble.
2. cos I think he is scummy.

1. It didn't require much nimbleness. Next time try asking me if I'm scum, that's an equally brilliant scumhunting question, and just as likely to catch people unaware as making up stuff they said and not expecting them to realize it.

2. And then I'll ask 'why' and then you'll say 'cause it can't be explained' and I'll combine that with your refusal to do any work on your case or to try to understand other people's work and my opinion of your play shall remain the same.

yabbut your premise is based on that alfred is not that good of a scum player or he and benny are scummates?

you never adequately addressed this.

Clarify the question then?
Because I certainly responded to it - if I didn't answer what you wanted me to it's on you to clarify what further info you need - I'm not going to psychically rip the info from your head since I use all of that power to control people's thoughts so they believe whatever I say even if it seems to be a joke.

I have no idea why so many people are posting this commentary as though it's a bad thing.

[Tierce]

I hope you're trolling. Otherwise you are

really

bad at telling them apart.

And if you are trolling, what you've done re: mollie (see:

nothing

) is a spectacular waste of time.

[Syryana]

I find it spectacularly awesome and ironic that you're taking me to task for doing nothing and wasting time, Tierce.

[Syryana]

As for my SafetyDance vote, it should be blatantly obvious why he needs to die toDay.

[Thor665]

Ugly face?

[quadz08]

it's not

splain again

Ouch. Is gallantry dead in Loki's Landing? Does a lady have to take the first step? Don't tell me Lady Tammy would be jealous of a dance.

You should understand about spiting Nacho

I do have reads and a good share of them are public, explicitly or implicitly. The question of whether you thought it was actually Mac posting so far (and why) was not rhetorical.

[Syryana]

*sigh*

Problem #1: 3000 fucking scumreads. Scummy by itself? No. Scummy when considered of the context that he's done jack fuck to narrow the list? Hell fuck yes.

Problem #2: Reaction to scumslip. As town, when somebody else goes up to me and says "LOL YOU SCUMSLIPT LOL", the immediate town reaction (in my humble 13er opinion) is some variant of "lolthefuckyousmokintierce".

What did we get? "What? I scumslipped? Where?" *looks for scumslip for 20 minutes* "Oh, you mean that?" *proceeds to overexplain scumslip*

Hmm...

Problem #3: Best reasoning for anybody being in his scumlist is "X is most likely to flip scum." No reason X is scum. No indication of thought process. No indication of scumhunting. Hell, corollary to that, there's no reason anybody in his list is any alignment. The moral of the story: THERE'S NO INDICATION OF THOUGHT PROCESS OR ANY KIND OF ALIGNMENT HUNTING IN HIS READS LIST OR ISO.

Questions?

Pedit: Tierce, I was attempting to troll the fuck out of mollie, and you are all up in me shit. Besides, I don't

need

gallantry, because I got bitches

lining up

to be all in me shit. Just ask Tammy and Shadoweh.

...You asked me to dance. Now you're leaving me hanging? When I went to

all this effort

to be awake and stuff?

Wow. Just wow. Excuse me, I may need to hit the bar.

[ooba]

I couldn't re-read the entire thread during the weekend as I had hoped; I have managed to read the pages in between.

@Tammy, Syryana - Congrats!
@Empire - Congrats too!

Town

Nacho, Syryana {I like what they're doing, reads\thinking is relatable, town posting}
elle {I was sort of losing my faith in elle town and in fact noted "Needs to post more reads" but that Thor vote was very-town}

Not as strong Town

Goat {Goat's suspicious of Shadow; Bottom of Page 38 was nice. Would have been "town" for sure if he had voted Shadow instead of Stupdendous,SafetyDance}
Andrius\Agar {"He knew he wouldn't be able to spend much time in this game - yet opened with that"- Nacho}
Tammy {Probably my weakest "town" slot since I haven't gotten a read yet - but sheeping Syryana}

Neutral+

Thor {Had the vibe of "something being off" from Thor's entrance; I went back and skimmed through his posts in Test of Faith Mafia - didn't look the same - not someone I'd want to lynch today though}
Kanye {That was a good return to the game; liked all his posts in the previous pages}
Amrun {I always have a 'scummy' feeling when reading Amrun though; need to skim through posts in previous games we played together; but interactions, wagons make me think she's town}
Zednek {Vibe}
Cephrir {Vibe + Said somethings in post that I was thinking}
SafetyDance's {Initial reads made no sense whatsoever to me. 870, 874 however resonate to me; As someone who has been accused of a 'random read' playstyle before on D1 - I can see me-town replying with those posts.}

Neutral-

Tierce
MessiahComplex
Alfred's {I didnt like the list in 935}
Garruk {Earlier vibe + Sheeping Syr isn't bad, but two sole posts stating just that rubbed me off as scummy}

Not as strong scum

Quadz {Earlier vibe + Don't like any of the no.2 suspects - Amrun, Goat or Zed}

Scum

Shadoweh {Not sure if Pygmalion but every post of his has been pinging my scumdar}

Unvote. Vote: Shadoweh

[Syryana]

...You asked me to dance. Now you're leaving me hanging? When I went to all this effort to be awake and stuff?

Wow. Just wow. Excuse me, I may need to hit the bar.

Time to get crunk and do the shack nasty, honey child.
