I'm a believer now, Titus. I think what you need to do to be believed in general is:
1. If you think you have conftown, just say that. Don't push one suspicious person over another. If you're wrong on which one of two is the guilty party, then that undercuts your credibility and makes people suspicious of you. Stick only to the facts you know first; then you can express your opinions. Label your opinions as opinions, though
2. Point to games in which it worked, especially if you start applying Step 1 above. It will make you look like a genius
3. Don't overstate your case. Anything that is known to catch scum can be manipulated. At best you should claim a 90 percent chance that you're right on town or scum imo; you never know when you're going to get played.
I'll believe in you now that I know your playstyle better, but that's another thing. I didn't find you arrogant. I just had trouble understanding where you were coming from at first. Now that I think I get you better, I think it would be easier to trust in you in the future. <3"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."
"How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."- Titus

You just present things in the way you type as if you're a mafia Goddess, and if you come down from that tone it'll change things a lot for you. You made it really easy for me/UT to be combative with you because of the way you present yourself in-thread. There is a tone in the way you post things that is cold and intimidating and makes it easy to mistrust you, and easy to fight you.- Titus

That's because scum use emotion to manipulate. *sigh* Logic can't be manipulated without the facts... so yeah I'm a little colder but I'm even working on being cheerier.ShowThe scum had the misfortune of Titus being absurdly accurate on day one.Really quite impressed by that.~Drixx

Just remember everyone is manipulating everything so when you try to present something as 100% factual truth all you are telling everyone is "hey don't look at this while I quietly manipulate it".- fferyllt

Titus just hasn't played against a scum that's skilled with manipulating VCAs yet
Like in Gay Mafia where the scum team voted the entire game as a single block because who the hell would actually do that?

I don't think I was even scummy, I think I had like 1/2 posts people didn't like but none to bring on your attitude, UT.
I would have stayed in it had I not dropped down to 1 game due to real life shit, so sorry you had to replace in and complain.ShowSTRIKE HARD

@PM, I didn't see much distinction there. Yes, I get people have to filter through my alignment. Yet, if somethings true, it is true. If Egg had been scum, I would have been autoscum with him. If the Egg lynch went through and he flipped scum, I would have understood lynching me and gone back to the drawing board.
It is possible VCA can be manipulatable but not to a huge extent. Also, VCAs being manipulatable to hide from me makes little logical sense since I wasn't there.ShowThe scum had the misfortune of Titus being absurdly accurate on day one.Really quite impressed by that.~Drixx

Test against it now. Your VCA argument is that it's objective, so theoretically if it's 100% accurate, it should be applicable to any past game."SAULRES you are THE man! Fav mod eva, no contest!" - Bert; "Saulres is a fantastic mod, if he is running a game everyone needs to join it." - FuDuzn

well, vca is an interpretative value system not mod confirmed info (barring bastard games wrt mod confirmed info) and I think that is the difference between evidence and "facts".

Scum team was me, DGB, katsuki, and deas veil.
Veil got jail kept while making a kill by Fate / Nuwen's hydra, then outted. DGB and I claimed masons together and were counter claimed by the real masons who were vengeful lovers. Then Iecrint realized he had fruit vendored on katsuki and had forgotten kats was a claimed PGO
still, for awhile we were doing good lolJoin me on my quest to play every NES game! Some of them are awful.

My problem with the way you are using VCA (and probably other's problems) is that is assumes some things. It assumes scum will be properly distributed in a VC and it assumes scum coordinate their votes with absolute precision to get this distribution. In my experience, I don't go out of my way to coordinate any sort of day play with my scummates.- Titus

I know the answer, so I can't test against Gay Mafia.
I need the following conditions
Singleball, Day 3-5 (depending on size)
Scum not wagoned together. (Meaning two wagons on scum)
It only generates town reads... not scumreads.
