I was questioning you before you attacked me buddy, not that OMGUS is even a tell.

I was highlighting the ridiculousness of you demanding a yes or no answer.

I have no idea why Anxiety made the night choice that he did, I've used a busdriver as town before, but I still don't have a handle on this games mechanics. I haven't even read day 1, I just read day 2.

If your action is targeted, did you in any way have to directly target Cedar? As in, is mr mysterious role mod mistakes random percentages on top of EVERYTHING ELSE just flat wrong?

Please let that be the case.

Pleaseeee
I would show up as targeting cedar and maple, as far as I understand. Unfortunately I believe he claimed as much?

I don't know why he chose the locations he chose. I'm incapable of answering your question, so answer mine for me, what value would there be in doing what you think he should have done?

As I understand things (and I still don't really understand the mechanics in this game) my ability would only work on things that affect a location. Player targeted effects like the nightkill would be left unaffected. I haven't actually asked for clarity, but I don't understand how a single targeted effect could be resolved if my ability did affect it.

That makes no sense.
Marquis targetted maple and got redirected to cedar, why would a kill not be effected by your role? Does it specifically say it does not redirect certain abilities?
Marquis can correct me if I'm wrong, but as I understand it he tracked the whole
neighbourhood
? So would be redirected because his action was tracking the
neighbourhood
. the kill targets a
single player
, how on earth would it being moved from one neighborhood to the other be resolved? who in the new neighbourhood would die? someone at random?

I have issues with lots of peoples play, not just Metal Sonics, and Metal Sonic is a player I expect to have issues with, I'm not at all certain that he's scum. Hoopla's cognitive dissonance of claiming it would be egotistical to think mollies reads mattered more than everyone else's and than using her ability anyway is way more suspect.

Its an 80 page game, I have a life. Fuck me for not being able to read all of it at sufficient depth after a couple days.

i wasn't putting my reads above everyone else's. i used the power because i thought it would confirm me as town or at the very least make me prob/highly likely to be town. to me it still seems obvious that this is a town power because it's just too strong to give to scum - that's how i would think if someone else had this ability.
If it works exactly as you claimed it does, I agree. We have no way of knowing that though. Clearing people is very dangerous.

It stood out more when I was rereading because its recent. I'm not explicitly attacking agar, I'm looking to interact with him (and maybe guilt him into doing the right thing if he's town). When I'm set on someone being scum I typically only use votes, I got my title for a reason.

I can sometimes confuse competence with towniness. He was one of the most competent seeming players when I was catching up. With that veil lifted though I think hes done a lot of overtly scummy things. He ended the day before I could catch up, he attempted to make bob vs zzzx about their roles, he tried to make me look bad for questioning agar, how else did he expect me to develop opinions? It was just thoughtless rhetoric.

I like interacting with the people who's play I actually find questionable, like with say, agar's inconsistency.

Of course him getting wagoned now was a big impetus in me needing to figure out his alignment, there is just nothing scummy about that. You are making it out like I was opportunistically smearing him, I was mostly certainly not. Nor did he need smearing.

and don't give me some horseshit about asking questions, you did nothing of the sort in any meaningful way. you quoted random things and made little cute comments about them.

and yeah, when you make a scum catchup, i'm going to hold it against you.

But you weren't initially holding the way I caught up against me, that is a recent fabrication. All you were doing was holding whether I had or not.

I feel like hoopla is reacting to Shinobi similarly to how I reacted to Antihero. The claim thing sort of gives me pause, but I honestly couldn't tell you the flavour for my role off the top of my head. And I think hoopla would be careful about that as scum. She was pushing for a massclaim, I don't see why she wouldn't at least think that she had hers in order. Though, that's also reason for her to have double checked hers I guess?

I do see it. I feel like I have to keep repeating the same theory argument though. I don't (or at least try not to) look for town. Townie things aren't offset by scummy things. Scum have the motivation to look town. I think you are very competent as scum, I don't think faking looking this town is inherently above you. I am absolutely leaning town on you atm, I thought my last post would get that across, though it was more me thinking out loud then intending to state a solid opinion.

Metal Sonic is number 1 for me right now. Especially if there is actually a hoopla/MS conflict. Hoopla's competent, she wouldn't just make up an ability. On the other hand I can absolutely see MS fucking up a fakeclaim (if the other movements were done by the setup, for instance).

I realized in the neighbourhood that a lot of what I was attributing to antihero being scum is likely a product of his personality not of his alignment (no matter how anti-town it may have been). It could be a cover, of course. I don't remember thinking that of him the last time we played together, but then I was scum in that game so~.

Desperad, shinobi, and oversoul fill out the roster in that order.

On that note, with the massclaim finally done:

And you think that justifies not protecting her?

The chance your 1 shot doc actually stops a kill(without prior coordination with some sort of neighbourhood manipulation to put all the best targets in one neighbourhood) is fairly low. At least guaranteeing info out of the claimed watcher could have been huge.

In post 2588, Hoopla wrote:So, looking back on the massclaim, the one claim I believe the most is farside's. It just doesn't seem like a role that you'd give scum, and I also don't think it's the sort of claim Reck would give as a fakeclaim for scum or that farside would think up as a fakeclaim - people don't usually go for highly specific unique roles as a fakeclaim unless they're a certain type of player. And I think farside isn't that player - she seems more likely to work within known boundaries based on the way she plays, imo.

I'm skeptical about Shinobi's claim, mostly because it is a role than seems kinda problematic in terms of resolution and the amount of neighbourhood swapping and moving of players. The fact he's claimed it to be a non-traditional PGO where he gets to choose when to activate it seems convenient, as it enables him to not be caught out in the event of being targeted (if his claim is false). The one thing in his favour is the lack of killing roles in this game, but that has to be weighted against his play and PoE.

One thing I've also noticed is there have been three slots that have claimed an ability to redirect players or actions; me, Metal and chamber. I think from a balance/design perspective, Reck would probably not give all the redirection/chaos abilities to town, so this makes me more suspicious of chamber and I guess Metal too (but realistically I still don't see him as scum). There could be unclaimed redirection abilities lurking within the scumteam, but I feel like chamber is a logical choice for me, because he is basically an intersection of this redirection trio and the Metal/farside/chamber starting neighbourhood with no scum flipped in it yet but two of my town reads in there. I also remember being underwhelmed by 4nxi3ty's D1 lurkiness/fencesitting, so in all, chamber's slot ticks a lot of boxes in my PoE and from a general play sense.

I also think if chamber is scum, Antihero is town. I don't think Anti would link himself to chamber with a hammer like that. That would be a pretty weird interaction between buddies, imo. Shinobi/chamber seem like a viable scumteam, although I can't pick out the third scum yet.

Right now, I'm going to vote chamber as he is a more likely candidate than Shinobi imo, as there are some weird scumteam possibilities I see that involve Antihero, so I'd like to go for chamber since I think he is the only player in that neighbourhood (farside/chamber/Metal) that can be scum, whereas Shinobi or Antihero could be scum in that neighbourhood.

VOTE: chamber

I don't know if there is any interest for this wagon, but I am going to put it out there.


I know that it's not the entirety of your argument, but I actually mustered up some motivation for this game and wrote a script to randomly distribute players. If the distribution was random the expected value for the number of all town groups is ~1.62. So keep that in mind when trying to use POE. I still think Metal Sonic is scum, but I can't really refute anything else brought up here(oversouls claimed ability also introduces a chaotic element?).

Noted.

But that is assuming that the scum was distributed randomly which I'm not so sure about, and also assumes Reck doesn't reroll unfavourable draws if he is randomizing, which I'm also not sold on.


You're deciding whats unfavourable for reck though. 2/2/0/0 doesn't seem that unfavourable to me. I get the willies when people start resorting to setup speculation rather than scum reads. Your saving grace should be that you've been using your reads to select within the speculation, but that pointing to me mitigates things.

I hope you understand that my worry is not with the viability of me getting quick lynched (which seems very viable) but with me having enough time to properly defend myself and NOT getting mislynched.

I entertained this question once before this game, but then I felt like I wasn't properly conveying my thoughts. I no longer feel that to be true. If you can't figure out clear suspects from reading my iso, it's because I don't particularly have any. Every time I think I'm starting to figuring things out I find reasons to doubt. And I think I've communicated those clearly. I strongly disliked MS's split vote on day2, I strongly dislike him forgetting his actions, but he's MS so who the fuck knows. A 1-shot PGO is a pretty bullshit claim, but Reck seems like the kind of mod that's hard to outguess. Shinobi's put his foot in his mouth several times, but I'm not convinced he isn't just an active idiot. Oversoul made some bad posts recently, but I liked his response more. Desperado is the one person who I don't see any caveats for, so he's who I'm voting. If it comes down to shinobi or hoopla, I'll lynch shinobi, that's not even close.

Ah chamber I see you understand before I say a word my issues with your play.

You went with attack on zzx and hoop, complained about wanting to question those you suspect, but not once when you were in thread with ms did you push for anything on him. I mean you got all pissy about interactions and needing to talk/grill those you suspect and nothing to ms at all when you had that opportunity.
Who do you blame for that? Antihero.

Today you question desp and ms about role and that's it? I mean all if this is now about claims?
That's almost as bad as hoop's let's mod the game and assume scum in each neighborhood and then mod the game more based in claims.


You've self described yourself as a tunneler, I'm not. I think a lot of this may come down to that difference. I very rarely am sure enough in a read to zero in one any one person that hard.

My motivation this game has been lacking, this has lead to me not following up on things as much as I would ideally (guess what killed my momentum and why I made such a big deal out of it). It's also lead to me examining things at a more surface level. Yes I primarily focused on the fall out from the claims today, but not on the claims themselves, the implications of them. The mass claim was a major part of today, so that only seems natural to me. I understand the aversion to only looking at claims, objective facts, trying to make them out to look bad instead of working with reads. But I really don't feel like I've been committing that scum-tell in it's classic form at all.

Well my point had to do with what you stated in the game as a whole.
You wanted to interact and question those you were suspicious of, you didn't.
You stated you wanted to finish reading the game and complained at length about anti's hammer. I mean isn't finishing and looking for scum the objective?
Now it's in the moment let's look at claims.
Wow like I so missed that fake claim by bob. What the fuck is with the claims?
I mean if you read say 1 desp was not hiding that scum read on Mollie. So what awnser do you expect with your question to him?


I have been interacting. Not to a degree that I'm particularly happy with. But I have been. I don't know what you are getting at with sentence 4 and 5. I don't think having a scumread on a claimed investigative role is a justification for not protecting them. If they are telling the truth you likely stop a kill AND confirm them, if they are lying you wasted a 1-shot doc. You know what the chances of a 1 shot-doc actually being useful are? He pissed away the one situation where his claimed role had merit.

If it comes down to it me and farside should be enough to lynch shinobi, I assume she'd take that over no lynch. I'm just sad that's what it's coming to.

It does require farside to be around too, I was just expecting that she would be. I really don't feel good about a hoopla lynch if its taking me you and spyre compromising just to make it happen though.

It's presumably random now and hoopla just got to control it while she was around? Getting down to neighbourhoods of 1 person is obviously silly so he needs some mechanic to counter act that.


@farside: Why didn't you post before work then? Why did you start a last minute wagon on me if you know you weren't going to be around for ~1/2 of that last minute.

@Metal Sonic: Why weren't you around at deadline? Why did you not secure your vote in a useful location if you knew you wouldn't be?

I think the opposite is true. You only feel you are better at finding town because the odds are normally massively stacked in your favor.

I'm also worried about giving detailed reads when I still think that no lynching is right. I'd rather not paint the scum a roadmap.

Farside was wrong to blame us(you) for the way yesterday played out when it was clearly her wagon attempt on me that caused the hoopla lynch. I think you guys have gotten pretty far off course from that original argument though, maybe you want to take it back a step.

I'm not trying to blame you. You just have to admit that you trying to blame desperado for the hoopla lynch is a little silly? If that's not what you were trying to do say so. There is no need to keep escalating this with emotion.

I realized that a no lynch wasn't going to happen.

There is very likely at least one scum in {MS, oversoul, Marquis} (not that that wasn't likely before now, but scum could be quick lynching him, or at least trying to if it weren't the case)


Marquis. Go over your MS scum read with me again.

I liked desp's end of day activity yesterday. He and SpyreX both felt like they were on the same wavelength with me. His argument with you also felt quite genuine. I imagine he'd have some shame as scum that mislynched hoopla yesterday and be less offended by you blaming him.

Oversoul could be scum with shin, but he could easily be town that's just over thinking things. I would have been more willing to believe that if he had answered yes to my question initially. Him being delayed and then coming to a similar conclusion makes it harder to tell if it's genuine or not. It's also a little less crazy, and I think town are more likely to make crazy leaps. All in all I don't think he's the lynch for today.

The Spyre night kill really does point at Shin scum. I just don't think making kills with the intent of framing is usually worth it. Spyre would have come in today with undying rage trying to get Shin lynched.

I think there is a decent chance MS pushing for me yesterday at the end was calculated to force a hoopla lynch without being on it. I believe your reason for not being around, but there is already too much other stuff on his plate. There is a limit to how much benefit of the doubt I can give his incompetence.

Antihero/Marquis is a toss up for me. Both have been incredibly absent. I don't think I have anything new to say about them.



If we are lynching today I really think it should be on shin and any votes that are on anyone else truly confuse me.

I normally say that on a good day I'm like 50% accurate. Given the percentage of scum in the game right now its maybe up to like 75%, but I'm still going to hesitate over losing the game 25% of the time.
