I'm not buying the "fake vig". Nor the "town reaction". But I'll have to take a look back to see what exactly irked me about it.

I saw Zdenek's vote coming from halfway around the map.

My vote is still on Doc because I've got no reason to move it unless he answers my questions.

I am 100% conflicted on Mister. I see effort; I see questions; I see pushing the game forward by way of this, and a *lot* of posts. I was waiting to see what was going to happen with the questions he was asking and something about the way his reads are being formed is irritating me. I don't know - it may just be hangover from feeling ganked at gamestart.

And this, is a prod dodge until tomorrow. I have a headache.

Take medicine and post better. And feel better.


And post better.

I'm not going to argue with you over your great desire to create naked town reads. Its scumtastic.

How about I join Yates and adovcate your lynch until you stop trolling or leave the game at the end of a rope?

null to scum

There is a sort of bizarre dynamic here because he only has two votes and both people are voting him for a scummy reason; there are still ways it can make sense though.

Meh, I consider both votes to be RVS based. We'll see how Yates responds and how Rach steps up before assuming anything about thier votes.

Ok.

Sorry if I overreacted. Carry on.

Why do you think I'm trolling? Because I disagree with you?

I did. I think I read them twice, and quoted them at least once.

I also asked this:

In post 229, PeregrineV wrote:

Why bjc?

He claimed scum with his first post. Maybe to distract from that very fact, maybe to assuage his guilt over the fact.
Maybe he's town and he's trying to catch scum. For everyone assuming he's town trying to catch scum, analyze the total sum of his followup to his scum claim. Then analyze the total sum of the rest of his play. Explain how it is town. Use charts, graphs, links, etc. Use his own words and yours. TIA.

Responses so far have been underwhelming, but I eagerly await your (further) input. Anything you can do to erase the scumvibe I have from your posting would be appreciated.

RE: Pere

Why was BJC low hanging fruit

Because he made a post that was very easy to attack.

Yes. Ask the logical question, and then think through each answer.

In post 297, Mister Rogers wrote:

Why was BB_replace_scum "faulty analysis"

Well I like how it brought people to attack you. Yes you are making a good point here. You were low hanging fruit too. I have Rach as scum for that (among other things). I am not liking Yates for it especially because he hasn't moved an inch while the "thread has exploded". Although again, a bizarre dynamic, but you haven't given him a reason to move either.

But their hasn't been analysis on it yet. I wanted to see who would react and how. But, both are players that reacted in a way that does advance my reads on them. If you get reads from their reactions, then I approve.

In post 297, Mister Rogers wrote:Very funny. At this point he is prod-dodge/lurking. Seeing his first post as null, I shall be judging him based on subsequent posts and/or lack thereof.

OK.

In post 297, Mister Rogers wrote:Throwing out a bunch of town reads with only one "scum suspect" is scumtastic. It is not genuine town play. This is a game with 19 other players and almost all of them have posted and a handful of them are scum (and probably not BJC imo).

On page 10? Your lucky I have any reads at all. And for me, "town" means I scumhunt them slightly less vigorously than my non-town reads.

No worries. Everyone has a different way of playing.

I liked post 202, the overall tone, there's no panic in it despite being the largest wagon. He had his own individual take on Luca rather than solely agreeing with my previous reasoning. And the way he described his talah and doc read felt really genuine.

Yeah, thanks, in order to do that I probably needed to not have a headache, and to actually read through rather than just read along. But noted, and I've just read (properly) up to page 10 this morning.

I have a question mark on townreading you mainly because you seem a bit more proactive (or maybe 'pushy') than I remember and also don't remember you having scumhunted using PoE before.


Re-reading through the fake vig I can probably buy it, actually.

So anyway, bored with waiting for Doc to never come back. I don't see Damon as scum and we need more activity from the bottom two thirds. It's actually quite unnerving that so many players have posted only a handful of times.

VOTE: Luca

Ed: well there ya go.

It's a function of free time, as in "how much do I have?" that affects my mafia playing. And PoE is not super realiable, but it's a good springboard to start day1.

I read a few pages.

Why am I scum? And why is the vote spread so large?

So Doc posts a one line, pretty whatever vote on Molla and votes on Doc are legit because? What do you expect from DV to help you read him here?

Town.

No opinion on Talah's half of this?

In post 25, Doc Holliday wrote:There is no legitimate purpose to this as Town. bjc is either scum or not worth listening to. Obtuse gambits are anti-Town.

There is no legitimate purpose to it as scum. And still, its PAGE ONE. Joke posts are pretty par for the course. This post reads awfully forced considering you are ignoring that context.

In post 29, Doc Holliday wrote:My vote on BB was strictly random. It was, like, the sixth or seventh live post of the game. BB still hasn't said anything, so obviously RVS.

Ok, but it being Page 1 RVS excuses any actions you take.

In post 223, PeregrineV wrote:I'll say yes and let you prove otherwise.

I didn't make the allegation - I don't have the burden of proof. That said, I think I've only played with BB 3 or 4 times and I'm pretty sure he's never replaced out [not that I can find, anyway]. Why this strikes me as particularly shitty is because you are basically accusing him of dishonorable play. You'd think he would have a reputation for it if it were actually true.

The sad truth is, Nero has first hand experience with being called scum for replacing out [by me - in the heat of an epic argument - in my more wreckless days]. And he was Town.

In post 223, PeregrineV wrote:Someone claimed scum. Thoughts on that.

I gave my thoughts on that...

In post 217, Yates wrote:[@ThAd] I hate the fake scum claim as much as a self vote. I think you are overstating how scummy it is - since we were both in a game where Town did this - but it is annoying and frustrating and can be difficult to see past. Perfectly acceptable reason for an RVS vote. Not a great point to build a case on, though.

Everything? The timing makes it look orchestrated.

What? Why do you think there are at least three people asking you how you jumped to these conclusions? I wasn't even aware of the chainsaw until I went to correct ThAd, looked at your ISO, and realized you called EVERYONE that called bjc scum scum. I absolutely agree with Pere here:

In post 238, PeregrineV wrote:I don't feel you can adequately assign alignments to reactions-to-bjc without assigning a bjc alignment...

In other words, you need to be Town reading bjc pretty hard to assume anyone calling him scum is scum. And this is something I pointed out to you and asked you about.

On page 3? In a large normal? I guess it didn't bother me because a. half the player list had yet to vote b. I was one of those players and c. we still had pretty much the entire day phase ahead of us.

Do you still think this is a big deal?

In post 253, Mister Rogers wrote:Errrm, what? No vote? Meh. I guess there is only so much 1 guy can do at one time.

I was and continue to be voting Pere. For reasons...

That vote has nothing to do with our current game [at least I don't think it does]. I'll leave it at that.

Ok, so here we now agree (with the appropriate edit).

Are you guys high? If you think scum have day talk, isn't that something someone would do? Also, even if you think Bipolar is Town how does that in any way reflect on Zdenek's alignment? Like... scum never gambit? I mean... ever? I have way better examples but unfortunately they are on another site.

Plus, DV pretty much nails it here:

Oh. Well, that's just weak. You are condemning me for not unvoting Pere while I was away from the game? lol. Pere responded [kind of unsatisfactorally - as you note yourself] after my last post and before this one.

In post 302, Mister Rogers wrote:How about I join Yates and adovcate your lynch

Uh. How am I "advocating" a Pere lynch? My vote? You realize votes are scum hunting tools, right? My vote is on Pere specifically because I'm of determining his alignment.

Deas is a dude unless I have alzheimers. Mobile Suit Gundam SEED in large themes topic.

I think Deas voting Doc for (Doc) making a vote which was "fuck that guy", deserved pressure because it was a bad vote, but mainly I like the fact that he (Deas) latched onto it and naked voted because I think that he (Deas) tends to get over-explanatory as scum, dotting i's and crossing t's where town probably wouldn't. So I liked it fine and given my mastin vote was pure RVS and reaction-fishing, and mastin hasn't posted, switched quite happily to simultaneously get a better read on Deas, and find out what Doc was about.

No results yet because I'm being hijacked by you. Nevertheless I'm noting the Pere/Admiral interaction. Dunno what to think about bjc or Doc yet, maybe slight scum on Doc. You I'll abstain on for now.

You're going to have to excuse me for being stupid here. The only point I see zdenek making about me is "#4", which you'll forgive me if I don't find it to be spectacular analysis. Obviously I'm missing something here so can someone explain it to me? I'll pre-emptively point out that I barely read the post I was supposed to be sheeping. Honestly, there's only so much one can say about a post that says "I'm scum", so it's unsurprising we have similar things to say about it.

And yes, I guess I did overjustify my absence which is turning out not to be so much so anyway thanks to this nifty iPad keyboard I got today. I appreciate the birthday wishes, even if they are laced with poison!
