essentially, my view here is that of

"i don't understand it; therefore, i will attempt to kill it"

and i feel that i am completely justified in my actions after the ways in which you are treating mastin and anti.

i'm expressing agreement in your goal in that i, mostly during the latter half of day 1, felt like this game would have gone better if they weren't...... here.

i'm expressing bewilderment at your
choice of conduct
, in that you quoting their post, deleting an important line from their post, and then criticizing them for a "lack" of the information given in the line you deliberately deleted, is something that i absolutely cannot understand why you would do that as town.

the closest explanation i can think of for you being town and doing that is that you just want to aggravate them, but in turn you're aggravating me because i see it as a horrible thing to do.

it's much, much easier to come up with reasons why you would want to do that as scum, and the whole action simply makes more sense with you being scum.

Or is there a third option?


i'd rather not.

i'm trying to figure out what your motivations for misrepresenting necromancers' post were, so i'm asking.

now you're just deliberately withholding the answer.

which gives me yet another action for which i'm trying to figure out the motivations of.

because i'm not going to come up with the reasons for you.

simply put, you're refusing to be open about this and fmpov stopping me from trying to understand what's really going on here.

i'm completely fine with just lynching you instead of having to deal with more and more rhetorical-questions-that-are-not-answers-that-i-care-about.

I would submit your inability to accredit the action to a scum mindset is pretty much all the effort I need to produce in order to show the value of your case.

Making a scum mindset there is easy. You win if people don't notice you edited it out. You win if they do bc you can clsim that would be too stupid for Thor scum.

I can't say I agree but there's enough there to make a case with.

i'm pretty sure i actually did.

and all other assumptions of a town mindset are just that- assumptions, in order for me to try and figure out the likelihood that those town mindsets are even possible.

just because i chose to evaluate your actions from a potential town mindset doesn't mean i can only see it as town.

it just means i chose to use the "these are the reasons why thor would do this as town and they ultimately don't make sense at all compared to the simple explanation that he's scum" approach rather than the "keep giving the simple explanation that he's scum while ignoring potential town mindsets" approach.

or in other words, i went through the scenarios of town-you doing that, ruled them out, and came to you being scum through
process of elimination
.

ftr i'm not unvoting.

Thor probably isn't scum, especially with how hard Doublade went after him.

It's more his inability to even consider the 'maybe Thor just didn't notice it, which would explain why when it was pointed out he just immediately went into the next question of whatever it is he's trying to do there' concept.
Honestly I'm mildly sad you're entertaining it too - it's beyond stupid.
I'll even toss out one of my assured Thor meta commentaries - I've literally never done a snipe and run misrep as scum ever.

To be perfectly honest - I've never seen scum do it ever either.
I'm guessing you and Doublade have...somewhere. But I haven't.

Thor, I live in grey areas as scum. I do more with enhancing ambiguities than selective quoting. However, quoting out of context is pretty much the only way I ever get mislynched. That's what you did here to Necro. Intentional or not is bickering about alignment. I believe it was accidental but can I prove that? No.

Well, I am one of the few that actually got Mastina lynched with her MD. I was scum though.That being said, I love it when a plan is destroyed and comes together.

Developing diabetes is not a scum tell, sorry try again.

I almost never consider absences due to Meat World scum tells. If someone goes silent after being a frequent poster,
and
getting a little heat, then I might. Rach is doing one of the best jobs of
active
lurking I think I've ever seen. Like riding a raft through rough rapids. I just can't quantify her posts into a Town mindset.

It's more the tone of your posts, added to your voting history. You don't really look like you're out after scum. I may go back and cut quote strips to better show what I'm talking about. I admit, I could be wrong, but this is my stance right now. I'm glad you're
almost
Town reading me and all, but you might be, just to try to get me to look elsewhere for scum. Remember? Those with scum roles are deceptive.

One last thing I thought about right before I hit submit, weren't you scum reading ZZZX?

Spoiler:
Lets' take Day 1 first. (Sorry Titus, I'll get to Doublade soon, I hope.)
Rach's first six posts are throw away posts, no big deal, it's the start of the game.
talks about the Polarity in Bulba's vote counts with Doublade. not sure of any relevance.
TMCT is her first scum read, by now she's Town read several slots. Necro, Shiny, and Talah, and she Town reads SKOT in her next post.
In she votes her "weaker" scum read, because she thought Pere was going to be replaced. When Thor questions her about it she says
RachMarie wrote:So I should not vote one of my scumspects just because they only have a vote on them which is probably a bus vote at that?

But what I'm seeing is someone who's trying very hard
not
to rock the boat, attempting to be "the voice of reason".
She moves her vote to Pere since he's staying in from TMCT. With her vote, TMCT had two votes, she was the only one on Peregrine. This is close to the deadline when we should be working hard to come to a consensus.
Now she's scum reading Pere and TMCT, which I'd like to point out, she's never given
any
reason for thinking they're scum. She never states any reasons for her Town reads either.
In she finally gives reasons for her scum read on Pere.
Shiny Hydreigon wrote:RachMarie Stop ignoring me, and stop making useless votes. If you're unwilling to see Xayneck die, then join the Jordan wagon

This prompts a vote from Rach in the next post.
finds her voting Dry Fit with Doublade, Saki, and Xayzeck. finds her asking Thor and Mara to join the wagon, she says Pere is more his Town self. No explanations, and no follow ups.
gives her reasoning for her reads, But I don't understand the relevance, or what she's trying to show!??
She spends several post complaining that the Day is almost over, but that's about it aside from some joke posts.


And so ends Day 1.

Doublade is next, I done a lot of foot work already.

Feel free to compare that to other D1s

BTW if you want to know why early on I was scum reading Pere, it was the way he was posting and the attitude he had felt very much like games he was scum in. Later his posting style did improve and appeared more like the towny Pere. So I felt like I could put him in the town pile . As for active lurking were you aware I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes on July 1? That is why I went V/LA. Even before I was diagnosed, I was having issues with fatigue, and trouble with focus and concentration. This worsened as I radically altered the diet and started pushing myself to exercise. Still not completely up to par. And feel free to meta stalk me on site including my GTKAS thread (link in sig) you will see it is across the board.


Seriously dude you have played with me before, why is your read so off base?

Posted: Sat Jul 12, 2014 8:29 pm
by jon_h61
I have played with you, several times, and I think I even once scum read you (through the first portion of the game) when you were Town. In all my "evidence", I never used lurking, or more precisely, not posting, as a reason. I too have health problems, and they suck!!! Outside of this game, I emphasize, but in this game, I'll still wager you're scum. I'm not voting you, yet, and stretching your neck isn't high priority, but please, glance through my spoiler and correct me on how I'm seeing things wrong. Since you know me, you should know I'm quick to admit mistakes, and will change my reads when they're proven mistaken.

I'm going to bed, g'night all.

I'm about to go to bed for the night, but before I do I'd like to let y'all know that I am going to get to this game. Tomorrow. I've missed too much of this game and forgotten even more, so I'd be useless if I tried to get to anything tonight.

We didn't change polarities. If anyone has not claimed whether they did, or if anyone did not claim yesterday, please do so.

If there is anything I need to address that aphix hasn't already answered, I'd be pretty happy to have you address me.

Lets take my wagon and decompose it:

ZZZX (5): Thor665, Dry-fit, Eddie Fenix, Jon_h61, Xayzeck

Thor665: Never played with him - Townish with really naive posting and bad logic
Dry-fit: Never played with him Scummish
Eddie Fenix: Never played with him Idk
Jon_h61: Never played with him Scummish
Xayzeck: Playing with him/played with him in a finished game. Afaik its the latter but I wont comment about his meta until I am sure. Really Scum Stuff... I dont even know if he is scum or just trolling town.

Let me apply pressure to help know it.
Vote Xayzeck



interesting facts about my wagon:
Its mostly made up from people who dont know my playstyle
Its not made of a case
People who know me are not voting me.
Made by people known to be scummy be everyone
Clearly a mislynch.

Yeah...except I didn't quote anything out of context. i agree that's scummy and that scum do it and that I've seen that.
What I'm being accussed of is saying someone didn't do something they did do - by cutting it out of the post they did it in and otherwise quoting the post... :neutral:

1. Maybe so - my vote has nothing to do with playstyle unless your playstyle is to lie though.
2. It has made a case. You have even claimed to have disproven the case that hasn't been made.
3. Maybe so.
4. We are?
5. It is? I wasn't aware you were obv. town to anyone.
