I started from the top in his thread ISO - there were a couple of town games and a scum game. I'd like to do more.
Can you give reasons for this?Luca Blight wrote:I’m starting to get the feeling that Datisi might be Town after all, and that at least one scum is sitting in the quieter half of the Town. I’m particularly looking at Flippy who has been conspicuous only by his absence since Alisae began her tunnel on me. I’m becoming paranoid that I might have been wrong about Tchill as well. I’m feeling almost resigned to the fact that I’m going to be today’s Lynch given how it’s shaping up, but I’m gonna try and leave some decent reads behind anyway.
Also can you answer this, pleaseIn post 1021, Datisi wrote:@Luca
What information would my lynch provide? Whoever's on my wagon is gonna hide behind "but her reasoning for Luca was shit".
Thats cool.In post 995, Tchill13 wrote:The interaction between datisi and icon has left a terrible taste in my mouth with both of them.
If we lynch Luca and he flips town I will be extremely annoyed... Plus the idea that datisi AND iconeum will probably both still be in play at the beginning of D2 isn't a pleasant one to me. If one or both are town they've already proven they don't care voting with players they just believed were scum. That type makes for great scum TOOLS imo.
I want to point out that, the desire to be right is important. You don't HAVE to be right, actually being right isn't important as long as you WANT to be right.In post 996, Tchill13 wrote:I subscribe to the school of thought that you don't have to have the game figured out early. Sometimes you just let it come to you. It's very difficult to disrupt the flow of RVS and out of comparison alone like I mentioned Luca was the only player that didn't make me... Alarmed so to speak.In post 994, Alisae wrote:talk to me about it?In post 993, Tchill13 wrote:Lucas's early game was way better than anyone else's from my perspective.
When I read the game I found that Luca didn't really do anything significant or substantial like at all
Now I'm not one to try and catch scum D1 based off gut or feeling. That maybe a confidence issue or it maybe that observing the entire play list, weighing the pros and cons in terms of level headedness, ability to be manipulated by scum, who I would want in lylo if I were scum in a given game... Works better for me in the early game.
Icon and datisi are players if be trying to get to lylo if I were scum here.
I don't see how you can debate in a hypothetical where icon, Datisi, and Luca were all town.
Luca would be the most destructive to scum throughout an entire game.
There's also actual scum motivation in voting WITH someone who just pressured you to get a lynch through as datisi voted WITH icon to get at the time an inactive slots lynched push through.
I actually didn't really read Icon's posts early. I figured if he was scum, he would be at his best then, and if he's town, we'll he's going to be at his best anyways, so I don't think I would have gotten anything out of his earlier posts, but a lot more out of his later posts and his interaction with Datisi.In post 997, Tchill13 wrote:What was substantially GOOD about the other players?In post 994, Alisae wrote:talk to me about it?In post 993, Tchill13 wrote:Lucas's early game was way better than anyone else's from my perspective.

So far I've seen icon and datisi vote every which way a wagon was.
I refered to you as "just wrong" because one thing you were saying about Datisi was that she was "pushing" kop and I really don't see how her vote was like a push and more like "I am going to work with Iconeum here"In post 998, Tchill13 wrote:And if you say "they're intentions were in the right place" that's not gonna hold up.
I noticed you said I was "just wrong" but not manipulative in your early read of me. That's fine I have no pride about my early game. I'd like to know where the others (not me or Luca) were particularly correct though.
do you have an a50 read you wanna share?In post 1127, Luca Blight wrote:With regards to my defence of myself being ‘scumclaims’, I’ve genuinely felt my frustration in this game boil over to the point where I’ve felt the need to bluntly point out certain things that mean I’m Town, and certainly mean I shouldn’t be the Day 1 Lynch.

This really is a case of ‘i’ll cross that bridge when I come to it’. I think it’s fairly obvious that information could be gleaned from either one of our lynches, regardless of the outcome.In post 1133, Datisi wrote:Okay.
So if I flipped VT, what would you take away from that?
If I flipped Mafia, what would you take away from that?

I'm not seeing the argument from 'not wanting to be right' to be honest. But I can see the thing you're arguing next to that, that he's far too concerned about how he's coming across in everything he's saying. Especially lately he has stopped scumhunting to take a lot of time explaining why you're wrong.In post 1126, Alisae wrote:and as for him wanting to be correct here?
I'm not quite sure why you need meta for that.

The problem is that I can see a plausible town motive for it (that being that he's just really stubborn and you needled him in just the right way to set him off). But from an overarching perspective I do think it's a scumtell.
I'll chat about Emperor/A50 later. I haven't really given any mental attention to most of A50's posts since they replaced in tbh, so it'll do me good to give them a proper read.
This reply isn't sitting well with me though. As if you're afraid to actually say what you're thinking becuase someone might disagree.In post 1136, Luca Blight wrote:This really is a case of ‘i’ll cross that bridge when I come to it’.

I promise you, I couldn’t care less if someone disagreed with me. It’s happened so often recently that I’m fairly desensitized to it. I just can’t be arsed going over pure speculation; I’m having a hard enough time dealing with the current state of this game.In post 1140, Datisi wrote:This reply isn't sitting well with me though.

I’ve already stated that standard D1 play would be to Lynch you here. I also just said I now think you might be Town, so that is a very strange way to take that post.In post 1142, Datisi wrote:Okay, fine, but your posts can also be taken as "Datisi's lynch, whatever she flips, would provide us lots of information.

Is it really? Because judging by your view of standard play and that fact you're still voting me, it doesn't seem like you're that opposed to my lynch.In post 1145, Luca Blight wrote:I’ve already stated that standard D1 play would be to Lynch you here.

I wasn't saying he was wrong. I just wanted to hear him say what info would he take away from that.Alisae wrote:given how major your wagon was, your flip regardless of what it is will have an impact on the game.
A town flip makes me want to kill Luca more
a scumflip makes me re-evaluate practically everything but from Luca's POV, wanting to lynch me as soon as you flip scum isn't unreasonable
