Truly, the nick I should have chosen. Offtopic, I picked emeraldemon as my nick to play the first age of empires online as a kid, I liked green and I thought it sounded intimidating , I've used it for pretty much every game / forum I've been on ever since, so I probably won't change now.

Hmm... actually now that you mention it, it feels quite odd, when I came in bjc was already getting pressured anyhow and i just thought that if he was scum he would have self-hammered or claimed PR, what do you think about him wanting to get hammered instead of just ending the discussion himself right there? Maybe because ika was pressuring him and i was scumreading ika at the time (and im still on the null-scum realm for that slot, not in so much as TS or kop tho).
TS > kop interaction could be buddying tho.
I feel like you just claimed scum here.

Sorry, could you explain what you see here?

Would you stop hiding behind nacho please? Thanks.

I think that Tier may be using my slot a verification of his own, which is why he was okay defending it. I've stated something of the sort before. Another point is his pursuit on bjc. bjc has let him sit rather idle whilst looking like a scumhunter.
Saying I'm afraid to be lynched is pretty groundless your activity was worthless to me and I refuse to be lynched solely because of that and that's the last I'll say about that activity.

Aside from that its all wifomy and Stuff.
I want a wagon on him, not to share my theories or to lynch him now.

I try to understand this. So, because you haven't been able to drop any associative tells, you think that bjc is not scum?
I like this new guy's entrance.
What I don't understand is all the townreads that koppie has been getting all of a sudden. How did he go from flailing scum to obvtown? Can someone assemble a summary or something?
right now with tge amount of legwork you put in I cant say you or lmb are good.
which leaves me hana sakura( ), bjc. nacho. ive never hidden my distrust of nacho in this game.
p sure I haven't called your actions nonsensical
perhaps not, but this is a communication at least 8 others will read as well.
I don't understand this. Who is "you"? And do you mean "questions for tier to answer
in this case, You voted him, and I thought you intended to question him.
Who is "you"? Me?
I left you all (him mostly) *to* insinuate it
'you all' would include you.
beeboy - Everyone thought this game was made to troll pie but it was really made to troll pisskop. Almost50 pisskop: Overall, that's a townie slot. Don't ask for specifics because with PK everything can be interpreted either way. It's probably WHEN he says/does things that matter, so it's more of a matter of conception rather than solid reasoning.

Ah, OK, makes a lot more sense now. For some reason I thought you saw some scumslip in Sakura's argument about bjc, or the TS-Kop buddying line, and was very confused about where you were going.
Do you think Sakura's emphasis on the replace-in statistics argument says anything about alignment? Do you think she would be more likely to make such an argument as scum (or town)?
In post 1193, RayFrost wrote:If you guys could read transparency tells this would make more sense to you. Pisskop's genuine as hell.
So help me out. Which posts of pisskop's are transparency tells? Is this a gut-feel thing, because I feel like you're very vague about what is townish in pisskop. See what I wrote about pisskop in 1130, I haven't seen anything particularly towny since then, but it sounds like you're telling me I don't know what to look for.

I don't know. I feel like the argument from anecdote is something that fits Sakura-town fairly well, and the statistics happen to line up with her personal experience. I had the impression it was Nacho who was pushing the statistical argument more strongly. In my readthrough, at that point I was actually thinking maybe Rob was going to be the player-slot that I finally got wrong when deciding to replace in. pisskop's play put that to rest.

hmm that's odd...
I'd think that it would be quite unlikely for both scum to be on my wagon at the same time, my current strongest scumread is pisskop and he's already here, my guess is that his partner is really TS who is just standing around and looking for a way to jump into the wagon, and what other good reason to do so than:

You defended the hell out of his predecessor without ever actually calling him town iirc.

First sentence feels kinda like a slip.
What was your read on LMB?
What I don't understand is all the townreads that koppie has been getting all of a sudden. How did he go from flailing scum to obvtown? Can someone assemble a summary or something?
Which players called him flailing scum and then changed their reads to obvtown?

Guys I don't know if the deadline is gonna get extended again if Nacho swaps out, but I'm traveling most of tomorrow, I don't think I'll be able to post.
@fferyllt
I'll ask you the same question I asked ray: what am I missing about pisskop that makes him town? Are there any posts you can point to?
I believe thet refer to my honesty, my willingness to be frank even when it hurts my cause. like admitting i had no tiershift case but still tried to wagon him. which i explained I did for infos, but nvmt.

I could basically quote random posts from his first few hours in the game and call them all town.
I offered to replace into the slot and I was very curious to see how the player who did replace in handled himself. So, though I'd told GiF I'd replace for someone else if he needed it, instead of catching up on the thread in anticipation of that, I watched pisskop post. In real time. His posts were quick, staccato burst of energy hitting the thread, and for quite a while he was interacting mostly with bjc and ika. And through all of that IMO he came off town as fuck. There was no hesitation or appearance of pause to think carefully about replies.
When claim became inevitable he did exactly what a scum player up for lynch usually doesn't do and probably shouldn't do. If you're going down as scum, anyway, scum usually try to flush out a town PR by claiming something and seeing if someone counterclaims. pisskop claimed VT. That's not an ironclad town tell, but given the earlier play it looks pretty damn town.
The spoilered posts all struck me as transparently town.
In post 607, ika wrote:enough of your survivalism play. at this point your play is becoming more hindeirng to me then helpful if your town.
In post 608, bjc wrote:......... Okay. Whatever, someone hammer me so I can play in a different newb game.

Does this look like survivalist to you?
And if his play is hindering you then you're effectively pushing for a policy lynch, now that i finished reading im thinking on bjc as more town. Maybe because I've been in his position before.
Also Ika leaning more scum =/
it was a pure test to see his breaking point, he sat at l-1 for a very long time, and he continued to tryt o stall it out and push elsewhere. at first i thought it was flail scum, but his continued fight makes me think hes town. also his last post saying "fuck it lynch me" was all i needed to know to make me think hes town.
i still feel like there was survivalism play in it but it wasnt scum driven survivalism.
In post 839, ika wrote:i come back and see pisskop first few posts. im almost tempted to sheep him becasue i still want to see a bjc flip becasue it would also contain info.
i was reflecting back on this game at work and was tossing an idea around
ts/bjc are the scums
i cant be the only guy reading this, and iys not the first time hes flopped on a read based on current events. killitwithfire. and a rope.
vote: ika
In post 867, pisskop wrote:so explain them. apparently you are lynch material if Im joining a wagon, and long/frequent posts =/=town.
as far as nachos request I claim, wifom under the bridge. hes not town to me,and he would have reason to say that no matter his alignment. dont generate content where there is none to be had.
