Oh shit I forgot to bookmark the new thread. Read these (thankfully few) pages tomorrow!!
Looked at the flips and I think it's interesting that snifit is a cyborg; would that qualify as organic or inorganic? He didn't have either qualifier (and neither does my role).
It's interesting because yesterday, kuribo claimed to be human and therefore organic. I think that's probably the case, whatever his alignment. Kuribo, do you have an organic qualifier?
Is anyone else's character something that is organic and town?-

Oh, Fate, fucking bite me. I wish you would just prove your towniness so that I can ignore you for the rest of the game.
Read the fucking game. You can't seriously expect anyone to take you seriously when you're suggesting that I'm BLUE SCUM. I could maybe understand pushing me as red scum, even though that's also stupid, but BLUE SCUM? BLUE SCUM? Ha.
Tierce is re-creating history and I don't like it. I still don't like her flip flop and it makes me wary, but bb's scum flip makes me okay with leaving that alone for awhile and observing.
Nuwen is probably not bluescum/Staeg. I don't see anyone stepping out for a buddy like that and being sooo wrong. Nuwen was against lynching BB and very vocal even when the bb ship had obviously sailed. A buddy would be more likely to do damage control at that point.
I had a townread on farside, but I'm not getting one from Shadoweh so far. The clarifying/fishing question was bad, but "bad" =/= scum or town, necessarily.
Singer I had a scumread on yesterday, but it's decreased today. I liked how she questioned "Why Nuwen and not me?" It doesn't seem scum motivated to ask why there isn't more attention on her when there's already a wagon going on her. That seemed genuine.
Yos is still as town as ever. Benmage, you voting him because you disagree with him about balance pissed me off and was the dumbest thing posted so far.
Kuribo is striking me as off off off. He's not really saying anything overtly scummy, but it's just so ... UNKURIBO-LIKE. What gives?
VOTE: kuribo-

You don't even know who did and did not try to start a counterwagon, so don't pretend to have a grasp of this game.
I haven't made up my mind on you yet, no, and that's fine with me. I don't have an opinion on everyone in a game this large so early, and that doesn't bother me.-

DGB: Why is this typical kuribo? It's unlike the kuribo I've played with.
In post 182, Yosarian2 wrote:Benmage shot Reck from scumteam red in the face early on day 1, right at at time when Reck was doing backflips to try to get BBmolla lynched; and then helped lynch scumteam-blue BBMolla at a key point at the end of the day, putting him at 7 votes to UT's 5 votes when Benmange could have put them at a 6 and 6 tie instead. Benmage is very unlikely to be scum with either scum group at this point.
Anyone seriously thinking Yos2 is scum at this point needs to be shot in the head. Also, to singer: Well, yes, Benmage has been known to bus, but I think the evidence points strongly to his being town in this case.

Oh come on. For pity's sake. Even if you are scum, you can certainly do a better job at smearing me than this. How am I 're-creating history'? How did I flip flop on a read? Are you aware that BBmolla pretty much faked townmetafor me and me alone, and that was why his meta sounded forced to me (because it was a a deliberate collage of our towngames together, ignoring his other towngames)? You spent D1 calling posts 'fake as hell', including my interaction with BBmolla. You've been proven wrong on that, so how about you get down from your high horse?
Stop this soft suspicion bullshit and be upfront about your read on me.
You're re-creating history with all this stuff with BBmolla. It's arrogant and silly to assume that he catered his entire game to you; I see no evidence of that in-game and you failed to prove it before the crash. Stating it as fact now doesn't make it true. And "what flip flop" indeed? That's a prime example. That's the main thing I criticized you for yesterday. "This is mollatown! This is mollatown!" <wagon forms> "OH NOES IT'S MOLLASCUM!" You love to conveniently ignore the fact that you defended him for a long time based on meta and then randomly decided to change your tune. This turn around did NOT read organic to me then and it will never read organic to me. The only thing that changed was the wagon momentum. This alone reads as very scummy to me; however, later, when the bbmolla wagon began to falter, you stuck to your guns, so you get minor townpoints for that. I have not been unclear about this at all. And, for the record,I started the BBmolla wagon and pushed him until the cows came home, so how was I proven wrong about anything whatsoever?I was, in fact, proven very right.

And what has the fact that WiHIII was 'abandoned' instead of 'finished' influence Fate's statement of what happened with you and Magua? Why is Fate's logic "fucking terrible"?
Do you even comprehend what he said? Fate's arguing that I started a wagon on BBmolla in this game because my suspicion of Magua in another game, which wasn't slated to end for MONTHS, would start a wifom game. He's saying I was trying to manipulate my meta, but it's a terrible comparison in any case. What he's saying doesn't make sense.-

That's funny I remember you spending most of Day 1 saying how scummy she was for joking that she was scum; to the tune of nearly ignoring most everyone else in the game.
Funny how you don't seem to remember that little detail.
We both thought each other was scum early on in Day 1; both of our opinions changed. If you re-read day 1, Yosarian was right and I don't know why you would undermine him for making an obviously supportable statement.
Do you have two votes today?-

Blegh, I know I can't but that doesn't mean I get to ignore my feelings. Also, I did eventually realize you were scum and convinced the rest etc. And in red dead I didn't exactly give a rip about you alignment-wise, which is not exactly a townread. And those games give me experience so naturally I will get better at reading you.
But the warning thing I did forget about. Blegh.
I'MMA STICK TO MY GUNS
I don't think your claim of being human jives with what I know of the game.-

You say you don't care how much I tried to get BB lynched, and then go, "but she said she did!" I DID ride the wagon hard - from start to finish - took crap for it on SEVERAL different occasions (good job totally ignoring the wagons on me that sprouted up mostly as a result of my bb pushes, good job there), and I stated varied reasons why he was scum. My initial vote for him was weak reasons + gut, but his reactions to the wagon, and my reactions to that, showed pretty organically why I rightly believed him to be scum.
This is a prime example of that "re-creating history" thing I was talking about. You're talking totally out of your ass. None of the things you've asserted have been true, for example calling me a lurker when I was probably the singularly most active player of Day 1 and had a metric fuckton of posts. As for BBmolla tailoring his play to you: I still don't see it, and if you claim that it wouldn't be obvious to anyone but you, why are you using that as if it should be a commonly understood fact that makes you town? How ridiculous.-

I'm just plain not going to do that. It isn't relevant and it isn't important and it's a waste of my life. When I originally started the wagon, I took criticism; there were small jabs throughout. I was a viable counterwagon at at LEAST one point. What does my reaction to UT/Nuwen etc. have anything to do with the price of tea in China? I said a ton of things to and about BBmolla. He had many different posts that I did not like. I recall one in particular that made me go KILL IT WITH FIRE but I forget what it said.
As for being the most active player, I don't really care. I was definitely the most active player earlier on, but I had some v/la throughout the day so naturally my post count wouldn't be the highest. My point is that I've been a presence in the game consistently and been an important factor in most, if not all, of the significant wagons. Much of the discussion of the day revolved around me and my actions. In NO way, shape, or form do I qualify as a lurker and you're just mudslinging and hoping people will be too lazy to check.
Okay, fine, not bluescum instead of town - but the point is that you admitted that I wouldn't know because only you would know, and then act as if it should be commonly understood fact. To be perfectly honest, I do not want to be bogged down with stupid, inane crape about BB's meta, since I will never (and now, can never) check that meta for myself. It's so amazingly not important and I think you're smart enough to know that. Drowning the game with noise serves only scum.
I'm not even interested in lynching you today, or possibly ever, and agreed that you have a decreased chance of being bluescum. The points you are challenging me on are wrong, and so inane that I'm pretty sure nobody in the world cares. It's surely possibly that BB was tailoring his meta to you, but I do not give a flying french tit. BBmolla is dead scum. I care about how you've portrayed it and your very strange actions and reactions surrounding it marginally more, but even then, not really that much. Jesus shit. Stop the noise.-

Your request is more reasonable, singer, and I may do that, (and would have done so just now if it wasn't the biggest pain in the ass in the world due to cache, downloads, etc). That's not what Tierce was asking for. Still, I think it's a pretty pointless thing to ask for and realistically speaking I'm swamped this week and probably won't even bother to download the files until thins lighten up a bit for me.
Your claim that the wagon formed because of Tierce is FALSE; she argued forever that he was soooooooooooooo definitely for sure town, and then once the wagon gained a little momentum, she changed her mind. That's not relevant anyway. I started the wagon and continued to push it for the remainder of the day; that is just a pure, basic fact. I am not the sole reason BBmolla was lynched and I never claimed to be.
kuribo, I never asked for your role and I don't want to know it. I want to figure out the organic mechanic, to which you are relevant only because you claimed human. I don't want or need any further information than what I already asked, which was if it said "organic" next to your name. I never asked anything else so let's stop pretending I did.
p-edit: I interpreted one of your earlier posts as calling me a lurker (and I remember the phrase lurkscum). If it wasn't referring to this game, then I misinterpreted.
Calling your points inane is my opinion and not a smear at all. I'm not sure you know what the phrase "smear campaign" is supposed to mean, to be honest.-

Tierce, I am technologically retarded and have NO IDEA how to quote from that thing. It's a very nice resource and I'm grateful that you made it, but it's patently useless for quoting. What's more, I DON'T CARE. There's nothing I really care to prove because I don't think I've said anything that isn't just basic truth and general knowledge. Without issues, I would quote, but I am not going to spend 73 hours figuring out how to do something that I don't see the point in doing. I spent most of the day interacting with/around BBmolla. Just because I didn't make a pretty post that says, "HERE IS MY CASE ON BBMOLLA" doesn't mean a damn thing. That's not how scumhunting happens. I really think this entire tangent is 100% irrelevant.
I'm obviously - OBVIOUSLY - not blue scum. If you don't see that ... I don't actually give a rat's ass.
In more interesting news, I've changed my mind and Shadoweh gets to be town. Yay!
Staeg is also town because Nuwen was town. Staeg has a scummy playstyle in general, in my experience.-

Slight difference, though: my initial reasons for voting bbmolla were insignificant by the end of the day. Reasoning evolved throughout the day as events unfolded and bb reacted to things. But overall, yes.-

In post 352, UberNinja wrote:Amrun, have you figured out what is "off" about kuribo yet?
This sort of side sniping is just ... it's bad.
What is "off" about kuribo is the same thing he says is "off" about me, and I said as much when I voted for him. He's being un-kuribo-like, in my opinion. I don't like that he's claimed organic as well. Up until now, his pushes haven't impressed me, which is not how it usually goes when I play with kuribo.
However, I am now less sure. I had forgotten he had been warned before, which does affect my opinion, and Shadoweh has now claimed organic as well and I think Shadoweh is town, or at least townish. I also don't really hate his push on me. It's not the best; it's uninformed and it's based in all sorts of really terrible logic and is ultimately wrong, but from my past experience with kuribo, it doesn't feel fake.
Question for kuribo: If you don't think my vote on you is "looking for an easy mislynch," how do you reconcile that with me supposedly being scum?
You, on the other hand, are not a full double voter, and I have learned my lesson in other games about giving certain roles town-passes. It's not at all outlandish for an occasional double voter to be scum. (Note: does anyone know if weather conditions are randomized, or if some can't happen during lylo, etc?)
I haven't found any of your analysis this game worth reading and I know you're definitely capable of better. Your push on Yos is particularly terrible.
I'm also a little weirded out about how you're dancing around me - do you think I am scum, or not? If so, why aren't you simply voting for me?
I have TOO MANY TOWNREADS syndrome right now, and you are decidedly not in that category. Your day 1 pass has expired.

Kuribo, about Yos: it wasn't that I thought Benmage was town, it was that I didn't understand why Yos wouldn't vote Benmage after the comment he made.
Also I DON'T think Tierce was bussing BBM.
I think you realized the things you pointed about BBM are wrong or misleading, judging by the rest of the post.-

Another question: When in Blizzard and Foggy conditions, identities of those killed are not revealed. does this apply to Day Phase as well (as in, we won't know the role of the person we lynch)?
1) The changes in weather may or may not be drastic. The one thing I will say is that I have preset the weather conditions for nine full day/night cycles for balance purposes. Weather patterns are not randomly determined in any way.
2) This applies to all forms of death; you will not know the role/identity/alignment of a player lynched under Blizzard or Foggy conditions.
Double voter on day 1 is no reason at all that UN can't be scum. I am satisfied with this. It's no reason to think he IS scum, of course, but it's no reason to think he's not. I think he's scum for other reasons.-

I always provide cases if I have one, but honestly, sometimes there's no case. Someone just IS scummy. BBmolla for example - he was scummy to me, and I found some reasons, but for the most part, I sort of invented a reason to vote him at first. My original reasoning was weak, and I knew that, but I was going with my gut. His responses to that solidified my feelings.
However, later in the game, I usually can construct very sound arguments for why someone is or is not scum. Sometimes, I can do this early, even on day 1, but it's more common later in the game. If tigers hadn't eaten it, I'd direct you to zoraster's Pet mafia, in which I had no truly convincing reason to suspect VP Baltar on Days 1 and beyond, but kept pressuring him throughout the game, and then finally, on a late day (lylo or similar), I absolutely nailed him with a case that was quite convincing, and with other flips and bearing out of gamestates, I could put words to my earlier suspicions. His scumflip was one of the most gratifying things I've ever seen. I babbled to my boyfriend about it forever and he had absolutely no clue what I was talking about and I didn't care.
My point is that when there's a case, that's great, but there isn't always, and I don't have a problem with that.-

Also, since amrun is far from being in the townie column of my book, I'm pretty sure I'm not gunna just take her word on it.
First, DGB isn't necessarily saying scum are more likely to replace out in overall replacements; she's saying a slot with 4 replacements is more likely to be scum. I think she's right in that, statistically, but not right in Staeg being scum.
And I modded UN's newbie in which he was scum and he was the most active poster.-

He pretty systematically refused to vote for bbm (scum), but didn't ever raise a proper defense of him. Tierce quoted some actual examples. UN says he had a townread on BBM.-

For me? Mostly gut, which isn't convincing, and a general history of bad pushes. All of his suspects are bad, and his reasons are bad, and I know he's capable of better. My gut says it's scum badpushing rather than town badpushing. In particular, I dislike his pushes on Staeg (he's totally sheeping, and poorly) and his push on Yosarian, who is obvtown to me. He doesn't seem to really believe either of them are scum and is pushing them perfunctorily.-

Welp, thanks for being clear, singer!!
As for other interactions... Yos, Benmage, Shadoweh very unlikely to be redscum.
Fate and kuribo were the most vocal to defend Katsuki based on meta. Fate's wording was a little more forceful than kuribo's, and therefore less likely to be a buddy defense, I think.
Fate said things like, "Katsuki is TOWN!" and kuribo said things like "people are voting Katsuki to avoid the Amrun wagon" and "this is not consistent with Katsuki's scum meta," which is not the same thing at all.
VOTE: kuribo
p-edit: Oh, Katsuki is actually blue scum. That explains a lot about which counterwagons were pushed yesterday. Yurp.-

I actually meant bluescum there but I wrote it before the flip amendment. (Hence the p-edit.)-

It's actually far more likely that kuribo IS redscum. I still really hate that "secret scumtell" "LOL JK" from Reck about kuribo.-

I never said I didn't remember day 1. I just said I wasn't going to back and quote 10,000 things from it that I didn't think were remotely necessary or helpful when there were no quote buttons and I had no time. I remember it pretty well. I don't know what made you think otherwise.
As for the Reck comment, it does confuse me. On one hand, the immediate reaction is too go "too risky for scumbuddies in multiscum" -- but on the other hand, it was clearly part of some sort of longer game. Reck is RARELY lynched or killed as scum, so why would he expected to dayvigged? My question is: what was his longer game? Was it to mislynch you, mitigate you as a threat, OR ... to distance?
I don't think you being bluescum is out of the question, as noted earlier today. But I don't think you being redscum is, either, and I find you scummy. So I don't really care which team you're on.-

I think my possibilities included the possibilities you listed above, but it's not important.
What I'm saying is I can easily see Reck going for the "so obvious there's no way reck-scum would do that" since I've seen him do it before. in his long game, he could move his position to one more sensical, but if one of you ever flipped, everyone would look at that and go, "Not scumbuddies." It was a deliberate move that struck me at the time and that I couldn't figure out, and I still can't. I'll never know for sure why he did it, but it hasn't left my mind.-

Except this is multiball.
She wasn't necessarily defending a scumbuddy. I've seen Nuwen defending scum and townas scum.
You are not this dense.
I know it's multiball. I'm not stupid.
But what she did was BEYOND defense. It was really put-your-life-on-the-line. It would be really stupid for scum to do that and paint a target on his or her back.
Even when it was clear BBmolla was the lynch, she kept on and on. If she was his scumbuddy, she would KNOW he would flip scum.
I'll eat my own hat if Nuwen is scum with BBmolla. Staeg COULD be redscum, I suppose, but I reallyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy do NOT think he is bluescum. Nuwen is far too good to make such a clumsy move.-

I am not particularly familiar with Nuwen's play, it's true. I never claimed to be. We played together for awhile in Mr. Flay's recent game, though.
The move WAS calculated, but I don't think it was calculated by scum (or at least blue scum). In other words, it would be a clumsy move for scum to make, and the only scum that would make it was one that was very ballsy and enjoyed risks. Even then, I think scum could have damage controlled a LOT better while still achieving overall objectives. I considered it and rejected it. You can disagree, and if you make your case well rather than just disagreeing with me, I'll consider your evidence.
Can you show me how she buddied Yos, because I don't remember that at all. She tried to lynch me, for example, and I'm his biggest town read. That's not a usual "buddying" action.-

Have you seen Nuwen defending people as town? That seems a more likely scenario. And where have you seen this?
I just don't see Nuwen going that far as any type of scum, though redscum isn't totally out of the question. Staeg is ... well, Staeg. He's low hanging fruit. I don't have much experience reading him, but I've seen him play similarly as both town and scum. My read is based off of Nuwen's play.
Staeg seems to be distracting people, and there's an outside chance he flips redscum, so I guess his lynch isn't terrible. I vastly prefer a kuribo lynch, though, hence my vote.-

If you're justifying something by saying "I just dont see X doing something as scum." you are, right there, creating the powerful motivation for scum players to do exactly what you are claiming they wouldn't do. Plus there is added motivation because they get to get townie points for doing something that is already in their interests in defending a buddy. Please think about what you're arguing here.
Yeah, so what? I'm not trying to convince anyone, just stating my opinion. Opinions are sometimes influenced by wifom. Too bad so sad.-

In post 692, Fate wrote:Nuwen wasn't buddying Yosarian because she was trying to get one of his town reads lynched? Youu really ARENT that dense.
That's a disagreement of reads, which any alignments can have. Where she was BUDDYING Yosarian is when, and this happened DIRECTLY after I replaced in and derped around. She chainsaswed (one of the better ways to buddy: attack people calling your target scum. It has more finesse than just sucking someones cock and calling them obvtown) IMMEDIATELY and called Yosarian's wagon "full of scum" and tried to paint it like there were all scum on Yos' wagon.
And now that Katuski's flipped you see she was effectively setting herself up for credit on a Katsuki flip which would also put her highly in Yosarian's eyes (Yos also being one to call Katsuki scum for awhile). Now Nuwen WOULD powerbus Katsuki the second she got the chance, I know that she hates his useless herpderp meta with a passion.
I might load up the cache later and get direct quotes, but I doubt that its contention. Anyone thats not scum (Amrun) and read even half of Nuwen's ISO D1 knows she was way up Yos' ass.
Also she was replaced by the more easily read Staeg who has played the "OH NO WHATS GOIN ONNNNNN" card, tried to get the obvtown DV lynched, thinks Tierce is scum, etc.
Staeg also hasn't dropped his 100% towntell that I have on him and probably won't share. It'd be more obvious to others but most of the Staeg/Fate games got lost in the crash.
Okay, I get where you're coming from, and concede your greater experience with Nuwen.
It doesn't really change my gut read that Nuwen was town, but I get what you're saying.
p-edit: WIFOM isn't a logical fallacy. Bzzt try again.-

You often insult the intelligence of people you call town without explaining what exactly is wrong with their views. FATE and KURIBO may rage, but they show what's wrong and know how to work with someone.
Uh, it's NOT anti-teamwork, and what do you EXPECT me to do, go "Oh, Tierce, you're right! That post was fake!"
That post was 100% genuine, and I know because I POSTED IT.
I haven't insulted your, or anyone else's, intelligence at all. That's what I mean by confrontational. You're making things up.-

Eh, I think Fate's town here. Multi-scum throws things off a bit. If it weren't multi-scum, I would think Fate was town almost without question. I think some of his scumhunting has been genuine.
On the other hand, he prides himself on reading me and has done an abysmal job in this game. He picked me as a target before he read the game and then just kind of stuck with it and made me "fit" in his view as scum, even though he kind of sheeped me onto kuribo. That doesn't feel very genuine.
I'm a little conflicted, but overall, I do lean town on him.-

On a serious note, does anyone have a good handle on fate this game? I find him consistently hard to read and this OMG PUSH PUSH PUSH thing seems consistent with him both town and scum. Anyone have any insight?
By the way, the promises that you'll catch up are getting a little stale. This is akin to a prod dodge.
My top three arekuribo,Porochaz, andTSQ.
The prod dodges are getting really old from TSQ and I've seen him posting about how he "usually" focuses in too much detail when he plays... Is that because he's "usually" town?
He was also too sure on D1 that it was multiscum.
He is very unlikely to be bluescum, though.-

Well, that's a good question... I thought UberNinja was blue scum, but he clearly wasn't.
I think Porochaz is a decent candidate for blue scum.
kuribo COULD be bluescum but is more likely redscum.-

I don't really care whether you consider bluePoro or not right at this moment. You're not in charge of this town.
I don't care what color scum we lynch in any case so long as it's scum.-

The thing that makes me think Poro might be bluescum is the same thing that you insist means he is not.
Let's review:
Tierce wrote:In post 1063, BBmolla wrote: wrote:Poro - Initial posting looked good, but then he followed it up with some active filler jokes and provided no further reads. He later votes Uber commenting that the quality of his posts were "crap," but I don't really think this is true scumhunting, it looks more like him trying to appear to be doing something.He's kind of scummy, but there's something telling me that he might be town, so null on him for now.
Tierce - I'm conflicted. She seemed scummy at first, then for a while she seemed town, but the bullshit she's pulled to push my lynch through un-nerves the crap out of me. She is completely ignoring the context of the meta, acting like I'd play exactly the same in a 13p as a 20p(Protip: I don't.) She's completely ignoring the fact that I'm playing to my town meta, instead opting to say "Oh yeah he's totally faking his town meta." Herp. My read on her is unfortunately going to be affected by my frustration in her terrible cases against me. I'll put her as misguided town for now, but I may change my mind at a later point in time.
What the hell are these.
If BBmolla flips scum, Poro is town. BBscum knows exactly what he is doing here with that read on Poro, which is to get me to call SCUMBUDDY READ:
In post 628 in Newbie #1185, BBmolla wrote:
In post 616, Tierce wrote:BB, why Post 415? That one has been gnawing at me.
Read the Vijay read. Scum always have a hard time placing their partner somewhere, and the "I donno, he's kinda scummy, but he makes sense, I donno" read kind of read as a gut partner read to me.
"Vjay: Sampson's lurkiness didn't help you at all. Made a few cases, but those made senses... Not too much content at the moment, I think... Unsure."
REMEMBER THIS >>> Poro = unlynchable if BBmolla flips scum (or if multiball, Poro is not in BB's team, etc). <<< REMEMBER THIS
The stuff about "I may change my mind at a later point in time" and all those reads "for now" are very bad. Reads are always about the present, why does he need to remark on that they may change in the future? I've never seen him do this.
Not only is your "case" on porotown not at all convincing, I think it's down right silly. It could just as easily apply to you, since his read on you was JUST as "I dunno null" as it was on Poro. That sort of subtle manipulation rubs me the wrong way.
That comment makes Porochaz MORE LIKELY to be a bluebuddy, not less likely.
I also don't like how you start the day saying that Poro is town. How do you KNOW Poro isn't redscum, Tierce? Is it because you are redscum?
And as for your theory, it's wrong, as Yosarian pointed out. This isn't LyLo and we shouldn't be chasing our tails with bluescum. It's wonderful and great if we have a good case on bluescum and lynch it, but we should be lynching whomever we think is most likely to be scum, regardless of color. All factors equal, I would go for blue scum, but all factors are never equal.-
