Adorkable is probably Vickey
So no organizing wishes, but let's all massclaim our rolenames.
Wishes that allow us to do almost anything, including win the game are boring, but rolename discussion "gives extra spice"?
Don't want to "everyone just follows some list" about wishes, but hey, rolenames!!
How does that knowledge help you catch scum? And how is your insistence on it town?

You really want answers?
OK. Let's start with 2 Benmages.
There is town Benmage, and there is scum Benmage.
The two are different, but very similar. My best bet for finding out is from talking to you.
So here, I was expecting a response along the lines of wasting my wish, since you're already town. But, you asked if I have wishes. As scum, I say of course, but I'm lying. As town, I say of course because it's true. So, I took your question/reponse as snark, meaing you did not want to engage in direct conversation. This keeps my read on you at neutral.
Not sure what you want me to say. You hoping on a wagon is not alignment-defining for you.

@Captaineddie- Just want to point out that breaking the game with wishes and breaking the game based on names are all breaking the game.
And after being Harry Potter in Harry Potter mafia, I did not feel a strong desire to claim Timmy in Fairly Oddparents.
And adding spice is one thing, but pretty much every person was told to nameclaim, so it was not "just interesting". And if it's not scumhunting, then why devote 75% of your posts to name flavor?I will haveLimited Accesson weekends.-

Answered in 272.
And once again I will point out that each TOWN player has 2 wishes. You don't want to discuss the usefulness of them, but instead want nameclaims.

Oh yeah. I actually never got to play on MTGS. I signed up because a group came from the WOTC boards, but there wasn't enough room in the game PK set up.

It doesn't help me "catch scum" but it's interesting, and if there is chance that it could help us find scum, again, why not? Your argument is basically "I don't think it's important so the fact that you're proposing it MUST mean your scum" when in fact, I don't think it's that important either. It was just fun to see what characters were in the game and it doesn't harm a thing

Going with my gut on this one.
I didn't like the way he tried to lead the town and try to game it - although I tried to look for a clever loophole in his idea I did not find it (a loophole that would result in one backfire targeting multiple people). After that, his wording made me think he was jealous of townies' ability to make wishes. And this insight by another person about his votes on and off vifam make me do this.
You kind of missed the part where the mod changed the rules to avoid breaking the game based on Balrog's post.
In post 85, numberQ wrote:While I congratulate Balrog on his clever plan, I'm sorry to say that no mod wants to see their game broken that easily. After careful consideration, I have decided to alter two rules.
First, the rule that allowed both wishes to be used in one night has been revoked. You may now only make one wish at night.
Second, and this is something that I was wrestling with since my initial plans of this setup, I'm going to give the mafia a slight buff. As of now, they can choose to either backfire OR kill each night. However, if they backfire, they can backfire 2 wishes. I feel this is a necessary change that hopefully balances the game a bit more.
PEdit: Human Destroyer, that is not allowed. Wishes cannot control the mod.

You were active when pushing your agenda after not wanting to talk about coordinating town wishes.
Once town planning was kaboshed, and you got the name claims you wanted, you stopped posting.
Apparently, the masses wish to confer sainthood on you for this type of play.
While the style is not preferable to me, it's more the topic and intensity which has vanished now that your desires have been fulfilled.
And you still never answered how any of it helps you catch scum. Because it doesn't, because you're not scumhunting.I will haveLimited Accesson weekends.-

I feel like a broken record here.
Did you read my case? If so, summarize what you think it was.
First, you summarize what you think it is.
Then, I clarify if you are understanding me, or if you fully understand why I think he is scum.
Once we have established that my case is what we both think it is, then you can proceed to explain why my case is "shit".
I will relay back to you what I understand your reasons to be.
Once you acknowledge we both understand your reasons for thinking that, then I will respond to your reasons.

I'm assuming in here somewhere you answered 468. So, let's to it.
In post 565, Sanjay wrote:
But whatever,let's talk about PeregrineV:
The thing about Peregrine's Vifam case is not that it is bad. It's that it is fake. It's incidentally bad but that's beside the point. Why it is fake:
1. There is an inauthenticity to it in so far as the strength of the conclusion doesn't follow from the strength of the argument.
The strength of the conclusion: Vifam is scum
The strength of the argument: In looking for Vifam's scumhunting posts as opposed to nameclaim posts, I found where he did not wish to use town wishes to win.
More details on what you are trying to say here.
In post 565, Sanjay wrote:2. PeregrineV somehow both can't conceive of why someone would fluff post so much as town, and yet fluff posts himself.
So, you admit that Vifam had fluff posts.
You claim I have posted fluff.
Which posts of mine are fluff?
Which posts of Vifam's are fluff?
While you're doing that, I'll refute that right now. Town fluff posts all the time. Scum fluff post too. This is a social game, and some people enjoy the social aspects of it more than others. Being social is not generally a scumtell.
What is, you ask?
When you answer the questions above, we'll go into that.
In post 565, Sanjay wrote:3. The effort to copy and paste all those quotes together doesn't really match the strength of the case it illustrates. That was probably a pain in the neck. Why wouldn't you just say "ISO'd Vifam. Almost all of his posts are about name claiming."? You're more likely to do it as scum for two reasons: One, having a big wall post full of quotes makes it look like you are putting in more effort. Two, mafia have less reason to believe the strength of their arguments stand on their own, so they need to put in more effort. They know they aren't acting on real scumtells. I'm not saying townies don't put in effort. I' m saying they are less likely to put in effort into stupid garbage while scumhunting.
There is a button on each quote with the Q+ feature for multi-quoting. No problem at all.
And tell me you just didn;t say " big wall post full of quotes makes it look like you are putting in more effort".
Are wall posts, in general, scummy? Or only wall posts that use quotes? How many quotes make a wall? Is breaking up a wall posts into multiple postings more town?
You know, it really sounds like your trying to say I'm scum because of the way I posted.
Otherwise, unless you are chainsaw defending Vifam for some reason, I haven't seen from you why my case is "fake", and you haven't once said it was wrong either.
My case is fake and unconvincing?In post 565, Sanjay wrote:By the way, I was shit-talking the case before I got this wagon going. Peregrine didn't feel like engaging with me then. Where was Peregrine when I said that it goes without saying that the case is unconvincing? He only started to care that I didn't understand his case once I started voting for him.
468.
In post 565, Sanjay wrote:It's not all about the case, either. PeregrineV has been weirdly ambivalent with his attempts to break the game. Dude said he wasn't excited about it, but yet is trying to break the game constantly. The heck. Between that and the fluff posting, it really reads to me like Peregrine is just doing stuff because he's seen others do it for townpoints.
"Fluff posting" addressed above.
And i'm not trying to break the game.
Read 85, 107, 150. The mod doesn't want the game broken, but if I'm not trying to win why bother playing?
Yes, because I am scumhunting.In post 565, Sanjay wrote:Kiwi, you are right that the mafia doesn't always fall all over themselves. But PeregrineV has, and I think the best explanation is that he is mafia. Maybe you aren't taking Vifam seriously because you are raging at him right now, so maybe the question will come better from me: how does Peregrine's play make sense as town?
In post 565, Sanjay wrote:Could Vifam be mafia? Easily.
So you agree with me that Vifam is scum, but think I'm scum?
This sounds like why scumhunt today when we can scumhunt tomorrow. I'd like the thoughts about why you think this is good play.In post 565, Sanjay wrote:MrZepher, the day ends when we figure out someone to lynch. If we are lynching PeregrineV, we aren't delaying the day so we can chitchat with Klick without any pressure on him. Trust me, there will be enough people to scumhunt tomorrow no matter what happens. And without pressure, mafia can act townish pretty easily, and all we are doing is filling our thread with a bunch of bad data that dilutes the good stuff.

Balrog in my mind is not confirmed town. Sure, it would be awful if the mod said what he did and balrog was scum, but the phrase also reads well for scum. Experienced players will, as scum, try to look for anyway they might lose. If my balrog thoughts are right, scumbalrog could also have questioned the mod to death to find out the nature of the wishes, and subsequently posted a game breaking strategy to get it refused by the mod. It wins town points with some (most) and allows him to post as he likes.
This can't go unremarked, but I need to go to meetings and work and such. Bonus points to anyone who can point out how stupid this sounds.I will haveLimited Accesson weekends.-

You know, I came back to see if you have a response to ANY of my posts.
But you don't Sanjay, do you?
Because you, too, are scum with Vifam.
You defend him, attack me, but don't answer anything posted to you, you just keep bleating and squalling.
Because your scum.

Sanjay is scum
adorkable is scum

now that we're close and something I say might actually stick in people's heads during the night phase, I just want to make a general PSA that nobody should use their wishes to make vig shots imo.
a.) if you get backfired by the scum you might end up shooting yourself in the face
b.) even if you successfully shoot andeven if you're right, you're depriving us of information that could be gained via votecount analysis.
I will probably hate myself for this announcement later if we're still alive in a 200-page d4 or something crazy, but eh, it needs to be said.
Vote analysis? Describe your vote activity again, scum?

In post 725, Sanjay wrote:Peregrine, you didn't respond to my posts either.
I mean, I see where you quoted them and then typed a bunch of words but all I read was BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH.
So you are basically lying.
This is the post where I didn't respond to you.

In post 565, Sanjay wrote:
But whatever,let's talk about PeregrineV:
The thing about Peregrine's Vifam case is not that it is bad. It's that it is fake. It's incidentally bad but that's beside the point. Why it is fake:
1. There is an inauthenticity to it in so far as the strength of the conclusion doesn't follow from the strength of the argument.
The strength of the conclusion: Vifam is scum
The strength of the argument: In looking for Vifam's scumhunting posts as opposed to nameclaim posts, I found where he did not wish to use town wishes to win.
More details on what you are trying to say here.
In post 565, Sanjay wrote:2. PeregrineV somehow both can't conceive of why someone would fluff post so much as town, and yet fluff posts himself.
So, you admit that Vifam had fluff posts.
You claim I have posted fluff.
Which posts of mine are fluff?
Which posts of Vifam's are fluff?
While you're doing that, I'll refute that right now. Town fluff posts all the time. Scum fluff post too. This is a social game, and some people enjoy the social aspects of it more than others. Being social is not generally a scumtell.
What is, you ask?
When you answer the questions above, we'll go into that.
In post 565, Sanjay wrote:3. The effort to copy and paste all those quotes together doesn't really match the strength of the case it illustrates. That was probably a pain in the neck. Why wouldn't you just say "ISO'd Vifam. Almost all of his posts are about name claiming."? You're more likely to do it as scum for two reasons: One, having a big wall post full of quotes makes it look like you are putting in more effort. Two, mafia have less reason to believe the strength of their arguments stand on their own, so they need to put in more effort. They know they aren't acting on real scumtells. I'm not saying townies don't put in effort. I' m saying they are less likely to put in effort into stupid garbage while scumhunting.
There is a button on each quote with the Q+ feature for multi-quoting. No problem at all.
And tell me you just didn;t say " big wall post full of quotes makes it look like you are putting in more effort".
Are wall posts, in general, scummy? Or only wall posts that use quotes? How many quotes make a wall? Is breaking up a wall posts into multiple postings more town?
You know, it really sounds like your trying to say I'm scum because of the way I posted.
Otherwise, unless you are chainsaw defending Vifam for some reason, I haven't seen from you why my case is "fake", and you haven't once said it was wrong either.
My case is fake and unconvincing?In post 565, Sanjay wrote:By the way, I was shit-talking the case before I got this wagon going. Peregrine didn't feel like engaging with me then. Where was Peregrine when I said that it goes without saying that the case is unconvincing? He only started to care that I didn't understand his case once I started voting for him.
468.
In post 565, Sanjay wrote:It's not all about the case, either. PeregrineV has been weirdly ambivalent with his attempts to break the game. Dude said he wasn't excited about it, but yet is trying to break the game constantly. The heck. Between that and the fluff posting, it really reads to me like Peregrine is just doing stuff because he's seen others do it for townpoints.
"Fluff posting" addressed above.
And i'm not trying to break the game.
Read 85, 107, 150. The mod doesn't want the game broken, but if I'm not trying to win why bother playing?
Yes, because I am scumhunting.In post 565, Sanjay wrote:Kiwi, you are right that the mafia doesn't always fall all over themselves. But PeregrineV has, and I think the best explanation is that he is mafia. Maybe you aren't taking Vifam seriously because you are raging at him right now, so maybe the question will come better from me: how does Peregrine's play make sense as town?
In post 565, Sanjay wrote:Could Vifam be mafia? Easily.
So you agree with me that Vifam is scum, but think I'm scum?
This sounds like why scumhunt today when we can scumhunt tomorrow. I'd like the thoughts about why you think this is good play.In post 565, Sanjay wrote:MrZepher, the day ends when we figure out someone to lynch. If we are lynching PeregrineV, we aren't delaying the day so we can chitchat with Klick without any pressure on him. Trust me, there will be enough people to scumhunt tomorrow no matter what happens. And without pressure, mafia can act townish pretty easily, and all we are doing is filling our thread with a bunch of bad data that dilutes the good stuff.
You missed 468, but I'm still a few pages behind.
pedit: Yeah, I'll get there when I get there...
And you admit to not reading.
Good news: I'll be confirmed town in a few.

In post 723, Sanjay wrote:adorkable's PSA goes double for alignment switches.
And, while we are talking about wishes, I think I'm going to spend some of the townpoints I've apparently accrued today to do something super anti-town.
Anti-fairies, get ready for some free advice:
Don't backfire my wish.
Please don't backfire my wish.
Whoever you are, whatever else you are planning to do, backfiring my wish won't really help you that much.
I know what my wish is. I've known what I wanted my wish to be before I even had a wish. Backfiring it will barely help you.
You might be thinking: I am WIFOMing you and trying to get you not to mess with something important I am going to do. I'm not.
You might be thinking: I am WIFOMing you by telling you I'm not WIFOMing you. I'm not.
Don't backfire my wish.

Nice try. WIFOM since I'm already dead and will flip town.

Basically this.
PV, if you are town and you think it is SOOOOOOO important that someone answer your questions, why did you put your life on a timer?
WTF are you talking about?
There's no good reason.
In post 734, Sanjay wrote:You know what? I hope you are town, because I've been pushing for your lynch all day, and I don't want to have wasted all this time lynching you and protecting my buddies.
Because if you are town you just suck at this game.
If you are mafia you are an asshole.
It's been said before. But why the insults instead of ever answering my posts?I will haveLimited Accesson weekends.
