I'm far more interested in the people swimming against the current andIn post 48, Slandaar wrote:Which is?their motivesfor doing so. Hopkirk appears to be playing a similar game where he previously played as a VT and made a similar yet less aggressive post towards another VT. Of course, you are going to go ahead and say to me that this is a WIFOM situation, and yes it is, I agree with you. Based on Hopkirk's posts from that game, I feel like that was not his first game of mafia, and I believe he is a more than capable of a player to play scum properly. Given his experiences in the aforementioned meta, he should know that accusing someone of not making RVS votes is capable of leading to a wagon regardless of if it is a mislynch or not. Now the interesting part of my post is, we can then analyze if hisintentfor voting me was to lead to a mislynch, or was it a genuine post to prod more information. Since I made this post, of course what ever that has happened will not be on the table anymore. The purpose of this post is to let you know that I have genuine interest in the response of the players I mentioned previously.-

I didn't try to break it. I'm interested in why you posted what you posted, and concluded that it is not pro-scum.In post 49, The-Duck wrote:Its weird that you say you don't like RVS, but question the motives of the first one to try and break it?-

I wasn't very clear earlier. A scum would however look at a previous VT game they played, andIn post 54, Slandaar wrote:Even as scum its very unlikely any scum making an RVS vote would be voting to lynch (yes secretly they may want it to happen) but they won't be voting for that purpose thus you can never find the scum intent you are looking for. Both as town and scum the intent can be to 'prod' more information. As scum the intent is at its most basic level to blend in; to look town.act in a similar fashion. This was the main point of that post, and I didn't feel this was highlighted enough.-

I don't know how to answer this question because I don't know what is being asked. The game moved out of RVS hasn't it? I would startIn post 60, Hopkirk wrote:The question I’m asking is that if nobody did rvs or anything like it then how would you start the game?

I just got to the thread a few moments ago since the server went down.In post 70, Hopkirk wrote:@Emo: So could you answer my q so i can vote someone else?-

Compared to any other reasoning one could muster up for voting someone seriously at this point, the reasoning is one of the stronger ones.In post 33, Yiley wrote:I think it is a very weak reason
I did what I did because this was a misrep, as the servers were down periodically since the start of the game. I just wanted to see if he noticed this as well, as he was one of the first people to confirm. It was hypocrisy.In post 40, BolteAltamont wrote:vote emogirl for being the first to confirm yet not ever posting again.
There has been a follow-up. See the timestamps for 50 and 51. Approximately half an hour was given to analyze your post, and I came to the conclusion that whatever I thought earlier about you was negligible. I wanted to see if your response was either to say you were pressuring him for information, or if you genuinely thought the vote had a good basis during the time of RVS. My argument for the former is that Alduskkel is not a good target to place a pressure vote on meaning that your reasoning for placing the vote is flawed. As your answer was the latter, my thought process was not posted as it was not relevant to whether or not you are town nor scum.In post 109, The-Duck wrote:I gave her were enough to give her a read on me, yet there is no follow up.-

Did you know, in doing what I did, I am opening the game to you, and more people to question my motives for doing that? We can see this is the case as both you and The-Duck have voted for me inducing further action from me. This being said, I don't feel that what you are saying now has any validity as I was aware of these issues at the time of my post.In post 111, Hopkirk wrote:“I’ll let people form scum reads, say nothing until they have so that nobody forms one on me then I’ll wagon”.
I seem to be the only one who considers that logic scummy, jake seems to consider it very pro-town which I totally disagree with. Although emos lack of opportunist voting seems good/townish.-

It was impossible for me to have access to the game because of server issues at times, and external factors at other times, until the moment where I first posted.In post 126, The-Duck wrote:I don't think that is what you mean, but I cant make anything else of it (rephrasing/clarifying would be nice
Because I'm entitled to focus on other players. This is how the game works. You are not the center of the game.In post 126, The-Duck wrote:So, you don't know whether I'm town or scum, yet you lose interest in me?
It would have been a bad reason for defending your vote with. This is because he seems to be one of the more experienced players of this game. Voting for him, then jokingly brushing off your vote saying it wasn't too serious but as a vote to get people talking sets off scum flags. It strikes me as a player not wanting to rock the boat too much and taking the safer more socially acceptable route. I feel at that time, there was no appropriate vote to place which induced pressure.In post 126, The-Duck wrote:Why would aduskkel be a bad person to pressure in RVS?
Would open up a chain of discussion between us initially leading me to believe you are scum.In post 126, The-Duck wrote:Lets for arguments sake say I did vote him to pressure him, would that have made me town or scum?-

We are not having a discussion about my lack of access. There is no basis behind that and a complete WIFOM situation.In post 127, Hopkirk wrote:Logically a vote for inactivity will vanish if your reveal it was due to lack of access thus how would you follow that up?
I will provide further input once Slandaar response to your wall.-

I began to read your previous games but got way too lazy to do so. Let's try starting here.
Alduskkel has made a total of three votes:
- 1. Hopkirk was the first RVS vote. This has no significance and is only natural that he drops the vote eventually.
2. Yiley was his second vote, and this vote has a reasoning. He explicitly stated that the reason for his second vote was to prod Yiley in giving more than one-liners.
3. Jake from State Farm was his third vote, and again this vote has a reasoning. Stating that he has a feel for a bunch of players being "town", placing the vote has no other intention other than another prod on Jake.
I am waiting on a follow-up with The-Duck for Alduskkel's second question, and Alduskkel's response, so let's not talk about that right now.
Making this claim while not taking a stance is a flag for me. Why stop the analysis at establishing that Hopkirk's push is flawed? To maintain neutrality.In post 133, Alduskkel wrote:I feel like Hopkirk's case on emogirl would be good if emogirl were actually doing what he was accusing her of doing, but emogirl seems to be participating just fine so I see no issue there.
This is just a commentary on a significantly small portion of why Hopkirk has been racking up votes. I agree with his comment of how Jake has no case, but this is a misrepresentation of the wagon on Hopkirk, as Jake's reasoning is not why Hopkirk has votes.In post 133, Alduskkel wrote:At the same time Jake's case on Hopkirk doesn't work for me either. Personally I thought it was funny to respond to such a stupid argument in such a serious manner.
He fails to acknowledge that there are real reasons as to why Hopkirk is being wagoned on. He does not push Slandaar to reason his vote (which by the way, needs to happen), and he does not push Jake to reason his vote on Hopkirk, as he did raise good points as to why Jake's reasoning is flawed. Why take the time to start a defense of someone and not follow through? Again, it's to maintain neutrality.
In post 133, Alduskkel wrote:I don't really understand what you're saying here. In particular, are you speaking hypothetically starting at the phrase "voting for him"? Does "a player" refer to anyone in particular?
Why was there no appropriate place to put a pressure vote?I want a response from you for why these questions were asked.
Will make a follow-up post after the things bolded above resolves.-

@The-Duck. I wanted to see whether or not Bolte's vote was indeed RVS, or was it to exploit a vote. As you can see, it was indeed a RVS vote.
This stood out for me. I wasn't sure if it was an exploit or not. My post clarified this for us since he responded saying that it was RVS.In post 40, BolteAltamont wrote:Compared to any other reasoning one could muster up for voting someone seriously at this point, the reasoning is one of the stronger ones.
This isn't true. Slandaar sayingIn post 169, The-Duck wrote:If you were town, I'd expect you toat the very least question or push me a bit more until you do get a read."I gave Hopsy the Benefit of the doubt."made perfect sense to me as to why he dropped the vote, in fact, I felt the same way. It was a similar feeling for you at the time when I found you uninteresting.
The reason why I didn't post my thoughts in more detail at the time of how you responded to me, was that it didn't provide town with new information. I posted why eventually when prodded, and you can see Adluskkel took no time with his exploits.-

Sorry, I was mistaken. Now that you mention your vote was not a prod, your reasoning make your posts inconsistent. Whether or not you think this is a good reason, it is for sure notIn post 181, Alduskkel wrote:I don't know how you concluded that my Jake vote is only a "prod" on him.useless. In fact, his case for Hopkirk kept escalating, and the only response you have for it was stating that Jake's casedoesn't work for you. Keeping in mind that you are still voting for Jake, his new posts should have been mentioned with more detail. Especially since Hopkirk had a wagon with various reasons. This makes you appear to be throwing out votes without contributing much content for town. Wouldn't you consider this asactive lurking? Which is a scum read according to you.
Your wordingI don't really understand what you're saying here.I read as aggressive. Your previous post explains how it wasn't. This is all I'm going to say about that.
How do you know that's not exactly what I want scum to believe? In fact, it's not too predict that reaction, as you probably only took 10 seconds to formulate that conclusion when you read my sentence and believed it. How do you know I didn't put thought into it when I posted? How do you know if I'm lying my teeth off right now trying to appear as a high and mighty douche bag? It's a mystery.In post 181, Alduskkel wrote:Thanks for telling all the scum that. Now they know exactly how to fool you.-

I'm going to step in here as you aren't going to listen to what he is =19567#p5485548]telling you. You can see that he never directly responded to Yiley, when asked for the reason why he scum-team read. I believe he adequately explained his reasoning for doing so as standard Day 1 aggression. Try to not focus too much on why he gave a scum-team read. I genuinely believe it wasn't significant.In post 188, SonOfZeus wrote:I really don't see a reason for you to have team reads at this point in general, but to vote outside your team reads doesn't make sense to me.-

Take my word for it that Jake "escalated" his vote on Hopkirk with more posts. Between your vote on him at 57, up until you made your 133 post, he has made multiple posts that "don't work for you". Your reason to vote him was that he "is kind of useless". Things changed, yet you failed to acknowledge this, leading me to believe you are throwing votes out for the sake of throwing out votes. Hence "active lurking".
All of your votes so far have been empty or RVS. And when given the opportunity to develop more on Jake, whom you voted, the only input you had was "Personally I thought it was funny to respond to such a stupid argument in such a serious manner.". So tell me, what have you done that isn't considered "active lurking".-

I word things in an awkward way. Should have probably said, of course I am aware of this. That's why I will adapt my play-style accordingly to compensate for what you said. I defend myself when another player questions my competence to play the game.In post 201, Alduskkel wrote:Honestly, this just seems like being argumentative for the sake of being argumentative, because your responses are more rhetorical than anything else.-
