peregrine, if you get online soon, please vote bulbazak.
ffery, vote bulbazak now.

or, we can flashwagon penguin.

Penguin, why are you lynching me when Bulbazak is going to block and kill you during the night?

You don't construct baselines from what you learn about players when you're scum?

Bulb is red. Penguin is blue. Why the fuck do you think penguin voted me 2 hours before deadline after she just got done calling me town?

Not nearly as effectively. Especially in a game where I'm letting town wreck themselves and have no real need to care about what's going on.

Cephrir had a bit of a "scummy" townstyle and a "townie" scumstyle. His earlier playstyle seemed more like LoL than Amnesiac Mafia, but I ended up amending that read sometime later. You know I have no problem calling scumbuddies town; why do you think I'd have a problem calling Cephrir town here?

I don't have nearly as much practice constructing baselines from games where I was scum due to being a statistical anomaly. But, I find knowing the player's alignment while I'm seeing their interactions is revealing in ways that cold meta never seems to match.

Penguin, explain your switch.

It's going to take more than Penguin's gut to make sense of such a late switch on such flimsy reasoning.

peregrine get your ass in here please

It's good to construct a decent baseline on scum when you are partners with them and actively constructing a baseline.
It's not good to construct a decent baseline on town unless you are actively constructing a baseline on them, and I don't bother constructing baselines on people/don't care about meta too much unless I've played multiple times with them.

I'm here.

Why would we flash wagon Penguin? She's blue scum, not red. This is just desperate scum flailing, isn't it?

In post 6280, Nachomamma8 wrote:Penguin, why are you lynching me when Bulbazak is going to block and kill you during the night?

Yep, definitely desperate scum flailing.

What does blue scum changing their vote to you have to do with you being town? If anything, it shows that Penguin-scum actually thinks you're red scum and that lynching you will make her wincon easier.

Actually, I learn a lot about how somebody plays by actually being scum with them. For example, I was scum with GiF in A New Matrix, and I actually learned what GiF looks like as scum, and by extension, what he looks like as town. It's useful, because I can then use that knowledge to identify his alignment in other games. As town, you should have been able to identify characteristics of Cephrir's scum game based on your experience with him as scum. Why didn't you?

Vote bulba

So your reason for voting me is because Penguin-scum unvoted me, even though she has just as much of a reason to find and vote red scum as we do? Yeah, that makes perfect sense.

All votes are in play.



Last votecount was page 251, post 6250.

If she's blue she has as much reason, yes. Reason and accuracy don't necessarily correlate.

I still think you are red scum. I still think she is blue.

Cases/reasons would be nice. After all, this might be your last opportunity for them. Deadline is in one and a half hours.

Bulbazak, why do you think penguin changed her vote?

This doesn't always work, sorry.
