Someone seems rather aggressive.

RQS (Or QS) isn't my style and to be honest I really don't like it. It's just people making noise and either town or scum can tell the truth and not have to worry about towntelling. That and I am not reading useless walls of fluff page one. Nope.

VOTE: Cobalt

Let's see where this goes.

You aren't asked to regurgitate useless, NAI details such as your favourite film or icecream or whatever. Rather, we get an early indication of how people react under pressure (especially when wagoned) which is vital for spurring on discussion. That's why I think RVS is far, far superior to getting D1 underway than RQS.

That said, happy with my vote for now.

To be fair, Innocent's first question is an okay one. I'm GMT+0 and because I'm a seasonal worker I'm at work every day of the week barring sunday, which is the day that I sleep all day to recover after my saturday shift(s).

Activity levels? It varies but usually between 1800-2100 GMT daily barring weekends.

Yea this is what I use it for. For example your list of pizza toppings tells me a whole lot about you than I would normally have to guess. A lot of scumhunting has to do with understanding perspectives of where a person is coming from :]

I apologize I can only check in quick here. More in 6-8 hours :P
So if I tell you my favourite pizza is Hawaiian, how does that affect how you read me?

Because honestly, I strongly feel this is fluff and distraction. Same from IV.

IV, people can change their own meta if they're aware of it (as hiplop is). I would never teach newbies to follow that kind of information and I think your vote is there for either misplaced reasons or I haven't fully understood them.

Could you clarify? Is your vote based on Hiplop's self-meta?

The biggest thing I've picked up on on a brief skim of the game is that I absolutely hate quote pyramids.

Cobalt is hilariously hard to read as a result. If he had any conviction in his vote he wouldn't have reacted in the way he did which makes me question the wisdom of voting to L-1 in the first place.

Rusty also comes off quite badly.

I'm still wondering why there isn't more focus on Cobalt for trying to quietly push through a quickhammer and then, when it got fluffed up by an invalid vote, itrying to salvage it and score townpoints.

Cobalt, what were your reasons for putting Inno to L-1 in your #89? If people are really going to berate and even vote me for 'not explaining my vote' or whatever (I have) then they should also have reacted far, far more angrily to the hammer-that-never-was earlier.

0x40 stop tunnelling it's very distracting.

Neither of the 'slips' are slips, because they're both examples and not outright statements in the course of open play. Don't be so absurdly tunnelly.

Cobalt is at
L-1
by the way guys, and so if someone fancies declaring intent to hammer that'd be great. We've caught scum stop faffing about with ill-concieved conjecture.

I think the time to claim is now, Cobalt.

Reso, if you spell InnocentVillager's name, the word 'Inno' is an easy way to shorten it. Don't try to misrepresent what I'm saying.

I'm getting rather sick of the double standards in this game.

Cobalt puts someone at L-1, doesn't draw attention to it hoping someone will hammer and it very (very) nearly works but for a fluffed vote and a technicality in the rules.
I put someone at L-2, I draw attention to when it progresses to L-1 and I ask for intent to hammer and all of a sudden I'm scum?

Cobalt quickly backtracks (having no conviction in his vote-SCUM) and looks to earn townpoints by looking about for ways to not have the hammer apply (eventually settling on the same rule quote I do) and somehow succeeds.
I vote a legitimate scumread, ask for more votes, ask for intent to hammer and a claim and yet somehow I'm scummy for it?

If anybody thinks scum isn't on my wagon (cough COBALT cough) then you seriously need to walk away, give your head a wobble to make sure it's screwed on, then return to the game and vote for Cobalt. I'm seriously getting frustrated that scum is pulling so hard on town's strings here.

I would much rather lynch scum now than gift them the chance to talk their way out of it. Putting off a hammer because 'ooh there's plenty of time left' is weak at best.

I love the way Reso's #261 is focused almost entirely on IV and RyanK and yet the vote went on me for another hilariously weak reason.

Ninja'd: I'm fairly convinced. I'd be surprised if he flipped town. I was kinda sure earlier in the day but the last few posts and then jumping on the easiest wagon he can to push through a mislynch convinces me that my vote is in the right place.

What do you think?

The point was you tried to undermine my argument by altering a quotation of your own post. Now that I've brought to attention the fact that you misquoted yourself you're backtracking, Cobalt.

You're the one misrepresenting me saying that I had 5-6 scumreads when I posted my rusty case

PoE? Your last readslist had 5 or 6 scumreads!

SCUM!
I was talking retrospectively about your last readlist and you're misrepresenting it. You've dropped and hopped onto fresh wagons opportunistically before, (remember the wagon on me that ended before it began that Cobalt jumped on without reason, anyone?) reasonable to assume your reads don't fluctuate much between votes...

L-1 now so once again get an intent to hammer from someone? Let's lynch scum D1 come on.

Their readlist came across to me as genuine, I think they're town.

Why would I tunnel on someone I'm not convinced is scum?

Nope. I'll decide when I reread the game carefully in the night after you flip scum. I'm half-tempted to go for RyanK but like I say, a careful re-read after your lynch will decide, not your PoE and I refuse to engage you in this lest you distract me from your partner with WIFOM.

If you're town you'll let someone hammer you as opposed to playing against your wincon and lynching yourself.

That said, I'm happy to see the hammer fall.

The fact that he's played so scummy for so long and had a wagon dissolve on him already (with this one taking time to gain traction) also suggests to me that we have scum.

I'll shorten Reso's argument for you all:

I don't like Ox40 tunnelling on people who I thought at that point were town, but I'd be more than happy if they were to tunnel on my scumread. I'm strong in how I approach my case about my scumread, I push hard and apparently I'm unco-operative with town? I hardly agree.

But the reasoning behind the quote is such a bad misrepresentation. The point was that Cobalt had no conviction in his vote, and worried that he'd be accused of scumhood for allowing a quickhammer to happen (townpoints for IV for this btw) quickly backtracked to look like he'd valiantly tried to save the day. That they settled on the same rule that I did is a moot point, I was simply recalling the events for people. (You know, that whole co-operating with town thing).

That is such a forced vote and the fact that you give yourself a disclaimer at the start of that 'this isn't a scum list' reeks.

Genuinely considering changing my vote.

Sorry guys. I was absolutely convinced and I feel somewhat guilty about that. In my defense, Cobalt didn't help himself.

This table from Ryan is garbage in my opinion.

As much as I don't want to indulge in WIFOM, I'd say that 0x40's death makes it less likely to Vax to be scum. I'm going to go ahead and remove him from my list of potential scum. I really don't know what to make of Ryan. It looks like overeager newbtown but at the same time I can't ignore the shift from him placing the hammer vote and voting me for causing a mislynch. It's very forced.

RyanK - That jump on Vedith for the L-1 vote looked far too forced to come from Town. Not a fan of that at all.

Vax is town to me - as much as I dont want to repeat my previous post I simply can't see a scumteam involving Vax killing Ox40.

The Hiplop wagon developed far too easily for it to be entirely town-driven. I think for this reason that Hiplop is inactive town.

Upon a quick re-read I suppose my vote is going to go on Ryan or Vedith. I kinda want Ryan because his posts are difficult to get a read on but the hypocritical nature of Vedith's vote on Hiplop earns my vote for today for the time being. Vedith says he doesn't want a hammer yet (intent is fine) but is voting Hiplop who basically implied the same thing in my eyes.

VOTE: Vedith

Ninja'd: I'd have to go through more analysis of X40's posts and reads but that's a wiiiiide road of WIFOM. I think the best way to approach it is look at it as a random kill. I'm awful at NKA and would rather do without it than become entrenched in a WIFOM-y back-and-forth.

Scum has to be on the Hiplop wagon, since it wasn't a player off the wagon who disrupted it and there was no counterwagon. As such, I'm looking at one of you, Ryan or Vax for scum.

I don't think Vax would have killed his tunneller and I townread him off mostly gut anyway so between you and Ryan I think one of you is scum. Ryan at the end of it all looks like (hilariously) overeager town so I come to you. You voted for hiplop and welcomed intent to hammer on the same basis that he voted for Cobalt. There is no credible reasoning for why your vote is there since you're voting hypocritically which simply isn't something Town!Vedith would do.

Hiplop did say he was going to post between 1-3 times a day. Just because it appears inactive, doesn't mean he's lying. If you go off RL days that we've been in the day phase, he's actually pretty much in that average. There is no case to answer to on Hiplop and I don't see an unposted meta analysis to be all that indicative of alignment.

EBWoP: I clicked IV's ISO rather than Hiplops. Brilliant. Ignore most of that last paragraph on Hiplop's activity.

My read stands though. I find it hard to get and maintain high levels of activity in games and I don't see it as being alignment-indicative.

Only at the start of the game, fair point. He townhunts more, but some people do that in order to let PoE govern their votes.

Granted, he doesn't have much though. I don't think he's scum but I'm not sold yet on town now. Thanks for pointing that out.

Thoughts on Vedith's hypocritical vote on Hiplop?

Letting yourself always get swayed by arguments is a bad way to play. If you have no conviction in your reads then scum can walk all over you.

Who do you think is scum?

I'm confused. Maybe hiplop has a gut read or something but to drop a statement like that is pretty ballsy without backing it up can only really come from scum. Can't see why he'd say anything like that when not even at L-1. Other than an investigative role which isn't something i'm thinking hiplop has given his play so far I can only see Scum!Hiplop. Pretty sure on that and I'd welcome an intent to hammer.

If anything, Hiplop is even scummier for allowing this delay to go on so long. The fact that there hasn't been a hammer yet also tells me he's scum.

I'd welcome more discuss, but I'd welcome intent and a claim even more.

Town-aligned PR's would have no reason to with-hold information, or softclaim without being at L-1 which is what I caught onto. The fact that he's softing looks like Scum!Hiplop trying to lay down crumbs to offset his lynch and now that he has been called out on it is delaying the game and hoping attention shifts elsewhere.

By stifling discussion, not only does he lessen our chance of finding his partner, he also prevents himself from slipping anymore.

This strategy cannot possibly be town-aligned and as such we need to eliminate Hiplop. I'm happy to wait until Monday, but I really want to see what the claim is from Hiplop.

Ninja'd: Happy to wait but would prefer activity from Hiplop and someone to declare intent.

Very surprised at this set of play from hiplop. Although on one hand I townread them earlier heavily, I can't help but to feel in my gut and following the above logic that he is scum whom we should lynch, find his partner and home for
tea and medals!
XOXO

Town!hiplop wouldn't play like this. Only a scum mindset would seek to deprive us of information. Why he's silent I don't know but I don't particularly see it is changing my view. Nor do I see any other lynch target today given the day's events.

Ninja'd: Yeah I'm happy to wait for IV and the V/LA is NAI. Everyone has lives outside the site so activity during V/LA is NAI and I doubt even Scum!IV would twist the V/LA mechanics to his own end like that.

Ninja'd: Yeah basically PR hunting isn't anything Town!Hiplop would do, but the wording he used suggested he was softing an investigative role which simply isn't something Town!Hiplop would do. He'd want to avoid claiming if possible and at L-2 when it happened it was out of the blue and unneccessary.

Ninja'd: LET ME POST. But yeah I kinda half-agree with that but it could lead to scum potentially setting up a ML

You want me to pick out an endgame based on 6 different potential setups, many times the number of potential night actions and say what I think your strategy is, do us a favour and don't try and drown us in WIFOM thanks. How are you going to clear IV anyway?

And don't try to turn the rolefishing back on me. You're the one rolefishing by softing and witholding information.

Hiplop is scum. Votes now thanks.

At no point was he even close to being lynched, and saying 'lurking doesn't equal scum' when he's in V/LA anyway doesn't make you town. As scum you're trying to earn townpoints after softing. 'Look at me I stopped a lynch I'm so town'

Also, waiting for an answer on this:

I have no scumgames yet on-site IV, much as I'd want one. I don't put faith in Metanalysis anyway as you ought to know so I'd rather your reads on me were based on just this game, to remove the WIFOM element.
