you're allowed to vote in a quote?
I read it and found it ridiculous. Am I scummy for voting you or what? You post only talked about me staying on the wagon.Baby Spice Post 705 wrote:Hey Sotty. try reading the rest of my post that you quoted from where I answer your question.
Then answer this question. Why did you jump off of a wagon you started when it hit L-1?
It's possible, I'm not willing to rule anything out at this point. Bussing tends to be over used as a tell from what I have seen. My new approach is not to be too quick to write someone off just for being on a scum wagon. If a player is scummy but voted for a scum lynch I won't give them too much credit for it.Elmo Post 707 wrote:Another thing that's bothering me is that open, all-vanilla setups are, by a long way, the best kind to bus in. I don't want to start the conspiracy theories too early, but I would actually like to hear from everyone what they think about the possibility of Dry being bussed by at least one buddy.
I am trying to sell IAI (just as he's trying to sell me ) and I think there's a reason neither of us are voting the other, and that's because we each realize at this stage it's a wasted vote. IAI's case hinges on me as Percy's partner and my case on him just lacks any real support - therefore it's a wasted vote.Mina wrote:Thor, why did you settle for a compromise vote on Lrdwhyt so early in the day? Now wasn't the time to decide to switch to whoever had the biggest wagon. If you really think you've found scum, shouldn't you have been trying to sell the I am Innocent or Baby Spice lynches to us, instead of just going with the flow?
That actually weakened it, but only exceedingly slightly. I tend to consider self votes an anti-town tell for the most part with town underlying veins. His was extra weird to consider because of the point in his wagon he opted to self-vote, the timing almost made it seem false to me "hey look, I self-voted, *not* scum here, amirite?" but some of the pissiness felt real. In the end I decided it was a big ball of WIFOM and mostly just stuck to the weak cases + constant bellowing of how right he is as scum play inherently and a viable case without sweating the self-vote.Mina wrote:Also, what was your opinion of I am Innocent's meltdown and self-vote early on Day One? Did it strengthen or weaken your scumread of him?
Maybe, except that my strong town reads were already out there and i'd agreed with the Lrdwhyt wagon long before I switched to it. Basically I feel that for someone who is so absolutely convinced I'm scum he's really not following anything I post. Also, he's mudslinging like a madman at me and drops accusations after making them as though he really doesn't care about them, but rather about how bad they'll make me look from the initial blather. Really feels like case padding, and I feel the same way about how he's treating Percy.Mina wrote:For the record, I think I am Innocent has been suffering from a horrible case of confirmation bias today, but his trying to lock you into give town reads out of his conviction that you're struggling for suspects because he's nailed the scumteam has pretty much clinched that he's town for me. It's just an utterly townish mindset, particularly from an inexperienced player.
Uf da, you really have to pull in a Mikajin reference?Mina wrote:Can you explain your read on Elmo for me? Truth be told, his play today has completely nullified my earlier townread. First he was unhelpful and flippant and brushed off of my questions early on (he reminded me a bit of Mikujin popping up out of nowhere inACoK, after having ignored pages of discussion, just to make a snide comment about douchebags), and since then he hasn't taken a single firm stance. But what I find really off is that he hasn't even reacted to the fact that his one major scum read (Red Coyote) was wrong.
And up until I and Percy voted her Day 2 she was a scum read for you, so...yes, super weird that we would have a scum read on her.I Am Innocent wrote:Day1 Phase 2 Percy Nikanor and Mina voted Baby Spice
Day2 Phase 1 Percy and Thor voted Baby Spice
You realize this is a week away right? Who is stalling?I Am Innocent Post 729 wrote:Benmage is right, this stalling is wasting time for Phase 2 of Day 2.
Those aren't the only questions she is ignoring. She votes me while ignoring the questions both myself and Mina asked her. It's ridiculous and scummy.jasonT1981 Post 735 wrote:What is this super town tell though BS... you keep decalring town town town, but ignore questions asking what your town read is
Everyone not voting Percy. And the people who haven't voted and the people who are on solo wagons.Sotty7 wrote:Who is stalling?
I believe three changes have happened since then to make the new unofficial vote count:Zachrulez wrote:4th Vote Count of D2 P1
Baby Spice - 4 (Percy, Sotty7, Thor665, JasonT1981)
Percy - 3 (I Am Innocent, KaleiÐoscøpe, Benmage)
Lrdwhyt - 3 (Mina, Locke Lamora, Baby Spice)
I Am Innocent - 1 (Furcolow)
Not Voting: (Elmo, Lrdwhyt)
If I made any mistakes please politely point them out and I will correct them.
Deadline for Day 2 is Monday, December 6 at 8am CST
With 13 alive it's 7 to lynch.
Do you even read before you post? Percy never even got to L-1, he was L-2 with the next largest wagon at L-4(Red's)...but he managed to wiggle himself out. When Red's increased to L-2, and Percy's decreased I unvoted.Baby Spice wrote:Personally Mina, I was happy leaving my vote on Lrdwhyt while I re-read and things, rather than throw my vote around willy nilly or wagon shop.
Ben, you do realise that when Percy was at L-1, you're the one who unvoted?
So we have both Benmage and Sotty starting wagons, on different people, and then jumping off when they reached L-1. I have no idea what to make of that, though it is hinky to then see Ben asking why the Percy wagon stalled.
Unvote
Vote Sotty
Sotty/Lrdwhyt are my top pairing for scum, with Ben as a possible. If ben is scum then I'd have to think I was wrong on Percy despite the supertowntell and general early townieness. (Though supertowntell looses strength if Ben is scum)

with this argument, you need to take into consideration
1) scum can bus
2) i am not perfect
3) i am not saying this argument is the be-all-end-all
These people were not on the dry-fit wagon in which we lynched scum:
Percy - I read him as town. I haven't seen him play as scum, though. He feels pro-town to me.
Nikanor - I read him as town as well. I feel like he requires a lot of evidence to vote/unvote/change votes.
RedCoyote - I definitely read him as dry-fit's scumbuddy, hence my vote.
Mina - I will have a better read on her shortly
Lrdwhyt - KingDavid made the same mistake I made. town.
Baby Spice - I guess that leaves babyspice as scum? null read from me
The only difference between the people on Percy's wagon, and the people on dry-fits, are that a few aren't on there (myself, for instance), and redcoyote IS.
RedCoyote, what makes you so sure of percy, yet you wouldn't vote dry-fit? why why why
It doesn't matter whether you think I'm good or not, your voting someone you think is town is suspicious. And it's not like you thought I had changed that much, this looks like a bandwagon vote with a dumb excuse.Furcolow wrote:the thing we need to look at, though, as a town is who can help us if they are town. Percy could. Could lrdwhyt? I don't believe so.
VOTE: lrdwhyt
2 wagons are a go
houston, we have liftoff
I didn't vote him because, as I had stated, I wanted to give him a chance to get on and respond to the accusations before doing such a thing. And I don't necessarily feel that those who thought jason had scumslipped were suspicious - just that they were wrong. It is more likely for scum to jump on such a thing than town. Also, I wasn't really backing his lynch - I thought him a better lynch than Percy.Locke Lamora wrote:That was one of the posts I was referring to. There's another comment that refers to it before RC gets lynched, where you say:Lrdwhyt wrote:This post was made after Dry-fit had already been lynched, so there's not really much point in saying that he was slightly scummy.
My point is, at the time of your first catch-up post where you talk about Jason, you say you've read the game. You've obviously familiarised yourself with Jason's posts, and you know enough to say that he's not that scummy and that there are better lynches out there, mentioning a DF vote without saying why you'd want to vote him. You don't vote, you don't focus on players who you think are scummy, and you don't comment on the players who jumped on Jason for supposedly making a slip - you just say it's 'dumb'. By the time we're nearing the RC lynch, this 'dumb' attack on Jason has turned into one of your reasons for backing his lynch. If that's your attitude to those who jumped on the slip, and DF was one of the most blatant attackers of Jason for this reason, why did you neither spend your first post looking at DF's play, nor vote him for doing something that you later state is scummy, yet still felt the need to include him in a brief passing note?Lrdwhyt wrote: RC's going after jason's slip doesn't make him look any better.

You're part right and yes I made a slight mistake.Do you even read before you post? Percy never even got to L-1, he was L-2 with the next largest wagon at L-4(Red's)...but he managed to wiggle himself out. When Red's increased to L-2, and Percy's decreased I unvoted.

It's on page 29 if you want to read it.

Doesn't change my question though.
