So is people voting without much reasoning/argument attached a trend in larger games?
I don't know if I want them to get away with such, it'd be too easy for scum?

pedit: My vote's staying there, but it's no longer a random vote.

Yes. Also, you obviously don't know me. Hi, I'm Boonskiies. I randomly quickhammer on Day 1's when someone is put to L-1, I make pointless-tunnelly cases, don't back up my reasonings, and tend to make everyone want to rip their skin off. Oh, yeah. I'm town most of the time. People who push me are usually scum.

My role makes it highly likely that what you are claiming is actually in the game.

This is a really bad vote, and not only because you are voting me. I checked his ISO, and Oranje has been posting random pointless stuff all game so far. They actually have a good amount of posts so far too. I thought the Vig-charge up shot theory was really weird, and that caught my attention earlier. It was way too opportunistic for my taste. I wouldn't have liked it even if someone else was the one posting instead of me, and then they voted that person. I don't really see anything that would garner a vote in my recent postings, but I really don't care about that. I really had no scum reads before, and was just trying to do random stuff until something clicked for me to get into the game. Looks like it's here.

VOTE: Oranje

Also, it's never anti-town. People are just nitpicky and dumb. You considering a PL so soon and early in this game is ridiculous.

Actually, you haven't really done anything besides ask pointless fluff questions, make random weird theorizing some scum charge up vig shot (wtf?), vote without reason, and trying to start a wagon for a policy lynch. Yeah, I'm happy with my vote.

Lol, scum hunting 101, Boonskiies Style. I drive scum insane because I catch them even when my logic is crap, it becomes pretty undeniable, and pretty damn accurate. BOOM, BABY!!!!!

First day in a large game starts out random, at least so far in my experience. Unless something unusual happens or someone makes a bad slip, the day one lynch wagon usually rolls on whichever townie has the misfortune to say something awkward that gets latched onto like a remora on a shark.

You yourself said you did not intend to ask for the pairs in the neighbourhood to out themselves , only that you needed to know who claimed to have a neighbourhood, which is different from your initial claim and request so let's not pretend you have been consistent this whole time and a bunch of us just randomly decided to go ham on you, that's problem number 1 I have with your claim.


In 275, I acknowledged that part of my initial claim, and retracted it partially. But as I said it was an implication that I assumed was obvious: if you're a neighbor and you claim but your partner(s) doesn't, you should reveal it because a neighbor trying to stay hidden in light of a claimed neighbor day cop is antitown as hell.

copper223 wrote:You then made a post on how knowledge of the pairs and members of a neighbourhood can be used to help town , although you say you don't want it anymore in and just now in which is an inconsistency I did not much care for and that's number 2.


As. I. Just. Said. If you have a neighbor claim. It is only natural. That the neighbor's partner(s) will be revealed soon as well, either of their own accord (which will allow them to keep secret who they're partnered with, though I doubt this will happen because people like you are so opposed to the idea of a neighbor claim, which gives scum neighbors room to get away with not claiming) or by force (which will be done by a fellow neighbor, and surprise, to know someone's a neighbor you have to be partnered with them).

You can't just have one neighbor all on its own. Wtf is the point of the role then?

copper223 wrote:Problem number 3 is I don't see your claim as strictly necessary if you are town, whereas BBmolla should claims as a miller so it's something I would expect and I was prepared for, so yes all in all I tend to believe BBmolla over you, with good reason.


I can't believe I have to explain this again.

When I got my Role PM, I realized I had two options.

Either I could stay silent and try to find a neighbor day 1, most likely only find out that they're not a neighbor and I can't cop them night 1, do the same day 2, get the same result night 2, and so on with the risk of not having any results for a long time...

or I could claim, get neighbors to claim, and maximize the utility of my role from the start.

I chose option 2. There's more benefit to having neighbors claim early so we can get confirmed alignments early and corner scum early. It's risking scum nightkill me right away, but taking that into account with the likely scenarios presented above, it's either:

1. force scum to decide to kill me, potentially revealing just how scared they are of my role, or
2. have my role be completely useless the whole game and then having to say sorry, I could have gotten some results, but I decided to fucking hide in the corner all day and be a scared piece of shit, my bad.

I like this a lot.

Confirmation bias. Rationally there's no reason to believe his claim until it's tested. Since it becomes more valuable the more information we have, we'll be tempted to wait and use it. TDT suggests at least keeping open the possibility that the claim is false.

The lurk in this game is strong, that much is clear to me.
I feel like I could well be wasting time on most of these cases (there's so much sh*t to sieve through), it feels like there's a shitload of baiting going on and I'm still confused about what to make of this. I refuse to scumread anyone till more of these lurkers come out of hiding. Things will become more clear with the progression of time (that's almost a guarantee) but for now I think lynching anyone who hasn't got a massively convincing case against them would be a safe move, then again 12 days is a lot of time for scum hunting (which some will know that I'm not a complete god at yet).

And Soren, I like your ISO :D
