RECK's post about the history of Sunny, though enlightening for the kids not following along in the appreciation thread, wasn't remotely alignment indicative. Yet you're seemingly taken aback by something you don't think will help engage you in a way that'll show your own alignment?

Why did you hammer in that situation Haschel? Why not let the MANY stragglers comment first?

I hammered because chkflip was acting like scum and by refusing to give any of the several town reads that Townchkflip should have been happy to provide it read like he knew he was going down and he was desperate to prevent anybody from being connected to him. Any scumbuddies surely would have bussed him at that point so I wasn't concerned with hearing comments.

He was twisting in the wind and not giving info; all that would have happened would have been scumbuddies taking the chance to build towncred.

Granted this was all assuming that he was going to actually flip scum but I was very confident that was how it was going to happen.

Im a little shocked by the confidence honestly.

So I'm guessing you took the speed of his wagon to be town driven. What are your thoughts on the wagon now? What are the odds scum were on there?

Conversely I'm shocked anybody would be shocked by the confidence. Chkflip was acting scummy, got called on it, then admitted to being scummy but said it was all part of a test to get reactions and reads. Now, in a vacuum I have no problem with that whatsoever. But he gave no indication that this was true at all. When I see a townie get ran up to L-1 I usually see them try to get the vote onto somebody else. A player with reads would be able to do that. Failing that if they think their execution is inevitable they would be telling the town their last suspicions. Chkflip did none of those things and I'm not gonna apologize for hammering.

As for your question, I do think there is scum on the wagon. Probably just one, since chkflip was playing poorly enough to get misexecuted. I'll go one further; that scum is Ythan.

Difficult to say considering you quick hammered before everyone could weigh in.

So comment on the ones who could. Agar, UT, brighteningskies, tn; all of them posted while this was going on and had a chance to weigh in. In fact, it's just Doctor Pepper and janko/Noraa who didn't. Don't use the fact that two people needed to be prodded as an excuse to not comment on either side of the wagon.

I have never in all my years see scum go through the effort to BREADCRUMB VANILLA TOWN.

The breadcrumb had nothing to do with flavor. It literally said "I'm VT". Unless I'm high? I'm not high.
So... were it me, had I had a chance to come back after that, I would've very heavily advocated we NOT eliminate town.
It just screamed town to me.

Ah yes, using the word "booty" to refer to Butt Sunny and the manhole reference. Truly breadcrumbs with nothing to do with flavor.

A VT breadcrumb is useless.

For example: why is this not valid? Surely a town player could also mess up trying to get reads in a particular way and failing?

A town player could mess up trying to get reads and fail. Chkflip didn't fail, though; he specifically said he'd gotten four or five reads out of the deal and then refused to share.

In post 367, brighteningskies wrote:No I get you're scumhunting but it feels a bit like scumhunting in a way where nothing is shared with town. What opinions do you actually have on players because if you're getting reads from your scumhunting, you ain't sharing them yet apparently?

1) I'll share them once they're formed; not every road leads somewhere useful.
2) I already have shared several. But right now I townread Agar and VP Baltar, maybe UT. I scumread Ythan and tn. I'm not thrilled with you, Noraa, or Gamma. No opinions on everyone else yet.

Speaking of Gamma...

In post 396, Gamma Emerald wrote: Just because I’m not going full Sherlock Holmes doesn’t mean I’m not contributing, and even if I wasn’t actively solving at all, just posting still counts as content.

That's technically true, if only because when the only scumhunting from you that made an impression on my catch-up was your bad nightkill analysis and the hydra theory then the lack of other stuff is content in and of itself.

In post 415, VP Baltar wrote:I think I need to start limiting the elim pool for my own sanity here. I'm not getting super strong reads so far, and sorting newer player behavior from scuminess is not my specialty.

Feeling fairly town enough on Gamma, skies, Reck and UT that I wouldn't want to yeet them today.

It's a real toss up for me between Haschel and Ythan for who was worse on the chkflip elim. Ythan seems a little more probing today, but still pretty useless in actually pushing the game forward. Haschel has better content, but that hammer explanation was a dog turd. The problem here is a real lack of information to sort due to speed and Ythan's lack of posting. I need to double check myself here, but I believe Ythan was on site and posting on the day of the hammer...but I think when I checked this before it didn't feel very conclusive as to whether he was present enough to unvote. Haschel...I'm super mad at you if you are town.

Off wagon of Dr. P, Agar, tn, noraa is a toss up too. TN maybe feels the most town of that group? I need to do some ISOing of people in that group today and better refine my sentiments.

You don't have to like my hammer but I stand by it. The only thing I regret was that he was town playing poorly and not scum.

I never liked the SR from that slot on me. It felt pretty sheepy and like they just tried to re-word everyone else's responses to justify jumping on the biggest wagon.

Huh.

I kind of want to claim now because I can't decide if my role makes duppin's claim to be more or less likely.

Mon Oct 05, 2020 10:58 am

I'm Running-Through-the-Street Sunny, town voyeur.

On Night 1 I targeted Reck and learned that he (meaning me) was targeted by a Manipulative action (bus driver), two Miscellaneous Actions (Mask and Friendly Neighbor), and an Action Investigation (myself). On Night Two VP Baltar was hit by an Action Investigation (me). Last night UT was targeted by a Killing Action (scum) and an Action Investigation (me).

So besides the Watcher we have a whole bunch of roles that don't really do a ton but provide things for the Watcher/Motion Detector/Voyeur to notice.

Skies/Noraa scumteam? The doc claim doesn't fit with the game and their interactions with each other feel off.

I'm guessing this will only happen after a prod and it won't be a fruitful comment. Let's just end this so we can move forward with the game. I feel pretty confident in this flip at this point.

I swear I wasn't planning to hammer today.

Well this is not what I expected.

I'm willing to claim night results first if you want me to but I'm not sure it matters. Leaning Duppin/Gamma as the only scumteam that makes any sense since Skies being town means all the ties I saw to Noraa weren't actually there at all.

That's fair.

Anyway since you are the only 100% confirmed town person here (Ythan is like 97%) I'll defer to you on if Duppin or I goes first.

For clarification, your claim is that you targeted Noraa?

Sun Oct 11, 2020 10:19 am

I also targeted Noraa. She was targeted last night by one Miscellaneous Action and one Action Investigation (me).

That means either we are both telling the truth and you were the Miscellaneous Action, VP targeted Noraa and you are lying, or Ythan targeted Noraa and you are lying.

Based on what Noraa said I'm going with the middle option. Ythan, can you confirm that you did not send a mask to Noraa?

Motion Detector is a new role for me; it shows both comings AND goings but doesn't say which is which? Is that correct?

Sun Oct 11, 2020 10:55 am

Positive, I've gotten that mod-confirmed while I was trying to figure out the busdriving on Reck.

In post 1335, VP Baltar wrote:Haschel, what were your N1 results exactly?

I was told that "my target" was visited by two Miscellaneous actions, one Manipulative action, and one Action Investigative action. In separate PMs I was told I got a mask that did nothing and that you were mod-confirmed town.

When you and Ythan started acting aggressive towards Reck for lying about being targeted I asked the mod if my own voyeurism showed up and the report and got an affirmative.

The only reason i mention this is because for that to make sense it would mean that i either lied about my target or i dont have a night action and just randomly guessed that gamma did nothing and that no one visited him two nights in a row.

Option 3: You have a different night action and lied about Gamma doing things. Most people with roles had already claimed their actions by the time you first claimed to have targeted Gamma, if I'm reading things correctly.

Ythan admitted the person he gave a mask to died in post 796, a whole 300 posts before you said you targeted Gamma. I also mentioned that VP Baltar had targeted me Night 2 in post 834. You don't mention targeting Gamma until post 1106.

Cooking dinner right now but after I come back I want to look at the Reck/Dr Pepper interactions a bit more.

Post Post #1394 (isolation #78) » Mon Oct 12, 2020 7:19 am

At work right now.

As you suggested there wasn't much there re: Dr. Pepper, although I am a little curious about Reck proposing a Flash wagon that suddenly turned into votes; once the wagon starts he doesn't really push on it more until after it's started to slow down. I do think his vote on Noraa at the start of Day 3 is townpoints for her; it doesn't feel like a bus.

Post Post #1452 (isolation #79) » Mon Oct 12, 2020 4:58 pm

Worth remembering that Haschel's results really did almost save Reck.

Not really, it was UT seeing him visit two places that did Reck in and I said nothing to wave that away. My results were just saying what literally happened, unless you have another explanation for how I got targeted by you and Ythan.

Noraa is looking good. Meanwhile I don't like the way Gamma is interacting with Duppin and I; he seems *way* too confident and trusting in Duppin.

From my perspective the scumteam is 95% Duppin/Gamma and will certainly hammer either one of them if the opportunity arises. I don't care for the theorycrafting about why there was no kill last night although ironically I'm starting to draw my own conclusion.

Tue Oct 13, 2020 12:57 pm

N3- Saying you targeted UT on the night of the kill is exceptionally safe from a scum perspective....and it actually doesn't even make that much sense from a town perspective? What could be learned by voyeuring the guy who was very likely to die?

Because if he didn't die and there wasn't another kill I would know if it was because of a protective role or if we were looking at a no-kill gambit or blocker scenario. And considering where the claims were at the point I wasn't entirely sure it mattered who I targeted.

He couldn't have been visited by Ythan or you, as I had already said that you targeted me and Ythan had already claimed to have targeted Agar.

Using haschel for the kills actually does make sense after he performed that hammer D1, especially if he is a goon.

Aside from the fact that UT saw Reck commit the first kill, and the fact that I'm not a good, I was under a lot of scrutiny on both hammers and was a likely investigation target so I'm not sure I follow.

Haschel, why did you target Noraa of all players N4?

My thoughts on Noraa being scum were strongly linked to the idea of a Noraa/Skies partnership. When they flipped town I had to reevaluate and didn't have any better ideas with who to voyeur.

Right, got the nights wrong. At any rate that's a bit of a WIFOM argument that I don't buy in to.

In post 1501, VP Baltar wrote:I had not claimed my N3 action at that point I believe. So I think that's incorrect.

Where did you actually claim N3? The was an implied claim before Duppin claimed but I guess it can be read as unidirectional.

At any rate, I'm going to

even though Duppin is more of a lock. Then tomorrow I'll accurately know how many people visited a person I guess and we can get Duppin.

I do; I just acknowledge that it's a coinflip for the rest of you. From my perspective Duppin is 100% scum and Gamma is probably 85%, but from everyone else's then Duppin is 50%, I am 50%, and Gamma is still 85%.

Incidentally Duppin trying to shift things onto Noraa using a single game's meta is scummy as fuck. Not only is any cherrypicked meta argument worthless to other players, but using a small sample size is disingenuous.

Post Post #1633 (isolation #87) » Wed Oct 14, 2020 5:41 am

The Noraa/Brightskies interactions looked bad for a day and a half; I thought each was going out of their way to look like they were commenting on the other without saying anything of substance. I specifically called them out as a scumteam multiple times.

Then Skies died and they were telling the truth about their doctor claim after all. The whole point of this game is reevaluating after getting new information so I'm not sure where you are going with this.

Wed Oct 14, 2020 11:09 am

Nobody is limming me today. We absolutely have to vote correctly or its over. Get rid of Gamma and tomorrow we'll have another night of results to prove my claim.

I was asked earlier about my townread on Noraa today. It's based on a few things, but the most important is that her posting feels like it is intended to uncover information and figure out the game whereas Duppin and Gamma don't come off that way. Furthermore, I know that Duppin is lying and a Duppin/Noraa team feels impossible; Duppin/Noraa would have had Noraa start to push me harder here and go for getting VP or Ythan to mislim me to win the game.

EDIT: Welp. GG Duppin/Gamma.

I thought Reck killing was safe because I knew three town powerroles targeted him N1. Surely statistically there 1) wouldn't be many more town powerroles, and 2) they wouldn't target Reck, right?
