Ah, another of the people I wasn't terribly impressed with. I just looked at your iso and came away wanting a lot more.

There has been a lot of conversation regarding MonkeyMan. What's your opinion?

You know...I was kinda fishing for who. And why.

Saying 'yes I do', when I ask for other scum suspects doesn't tell me very fucking much of your progression or reads. :igmeou:


you asked if i had other scum reads, i answered.

i could always answer who and why but you never asked so if yo want to take everything so literal im going to do likewise.

tbh i dont really get the case on moneky right now. it seems like a lot of thing i like to do myself in some of my games. so someone is going to have to present me the case on why i should be scum reading him for something tha i do myself.

BBT has 11 post so far (i went isoing) [snark]he actualy has less post then monkey[/snark]

but more seriously i dont see anything from him that gleams at me yet. he think meta isnt really all that telling but ive seen his scum game (robbery at casino and one of his newbies he linked in that game) so im going to see if i can meta him. i really give nothing about a person logic and i know thats the kind of player he is.

anything else?

Yeah, who and why is unspoken, and this reads like cheeky scum to me. And you even started the literal fuckery with literally casting a vote on me with the words "when I am town", so I'm not inclined to treat this seriously.

But since you're prompting: Who do you think is scum and why?

im beeing cheecky b/c your acting so literal. if you want to tone it down and be more casual i can be as well but if your going to be literal im going to do likewise:

that being said:

you are still a scum read of mine but now that you are directly engaging me it wanning a bit.
abr is null leaning scum mostly due to the fact hes just agroing a lynch down. but i have seen him do it as both alignments...
sorce is also another for his silly potshots at me although we will prob sort it out in neighborhood

i have a few other ideas on some things but thats left for me and possibly my neighborhood to know

What do you make of Ika and Sorc?

They're both in your neighbourhood and you made little mention of both in your catch up.

Nobody yet. I haven't played with many people in this one before, so I'm reading and watching.

This mimics my own reaction so this seems town.

The "everyone's got a neighborhood" mechanic is, I think, leaving a lot of information hidden. It will be very interesting when we get someone up towards lynch, how much the "neighborhood reads" will start coming into play in terms of players defending each other. It's also interesting because it's curtailing a lot of the interaction that we'd normally see in-thread. "I'll probably sort him out in the neighborhood," etc.

Not much to see yet. I think I might exceed Sorc's post count with this response.

I AM GROOT! Without claiming flavor, does anyone's PT make sense as one that would have scum? Further, does everyone's PT make sense flavor wise for their character?

I AM GROOT! I think it is likely that there is no all scum neighborhood, so once scum flips start happening, that information is valuable. Do not let me forget this.

I AM GROOT! There would be a certain elegance to 1 scum in each of the 3p neighborhoods. More likely is that all of the PT's were assigned randomly.

I AM GROOT! If any neighborhoods don't make sense flavor wise we can assume random assignment. To this end, I suggest flavorclaiming in the PTs. Thoughts?

I agree, and the things he has been posting lately have been making feel like he is scum more and more.
Will do an analysis on him later. For now:

This assumes you are using the neighborhoods for their intended purpose. I am not. (Although considering I'm stuck with one person I'm reading scum, another I feel queasy about who apparently hates the damn things might have something to do with this.)

Also, REALLY? Two of the people I'm accusing of not scum hunting have the same reaction to me accusing them of not scum hunting! I'm stunned. (Yeah, that was sarcasm.)

I keep waiting for something from you about pushing suspects and interacting with people instead of game mechanics. Day One is a bit soon to find a game breaker mechanic for Town to exploit, and this has taken up a number of your posts.

Reads, please.

Except doesn't an Appeal to Authority, by definition, require someone to appeal to something? You can claim he's full of shit and full of himself, but you can't actually say he's really trying to get anyone to do anything in this post.

In fact, that's the exact thing I don't like about it.

BBT, you have no opinion on ABR?

Ghostlin, I wasn't accusing ABR of overtly trying to take advantage of his "experience," what I'm saying it sounds like he's trying to divert attention to less experienced players and thus prolong his own game life.

Not really, no.

Other than tunnel you, I don't think he has done all that much.

I wouldn't say he's tunnelled me. He's asked to lynch me and asked people if they want to dayvig me and tried to 1v1 me. But that's like a total of 3 posts about me, not exactly tunneling. But it is odd that he's looking at me so hard without any real reasoning and without confronting me directly.

When I say tunneling, I just mean I don't see him interacting with many other people and even when he does it's mostly one-liners.

One of those players that takes a little time to gain a read on I think.
