Pala wrote:@bork - Can you explain what you meant by your post #12?
As I mentioned, I wanted to know if your vote was serious or not. Some people use "last to confirm" as an RVS reason, and some might use it as something of a weak scumtell, as you seem to have done.
I don't have a scumread on Pala, which I might've if he tried to maneuver this CE thing into something it isn't.
#25 and #34 both look like he's just trying to keep his target off balance more than actually make a point. In #25, he doesn't say anything about why elvis repeating a question that had already been posed by someone else is telling or even relevant.
#34 looks like he's trying to look like he doesn't understand the point Pala is trying to make (which IS a weak point, but I think it's pretty obvious what he was trying to say there: scum gets more pregame time by potentially delaying a confirm. I think it's a weak point because I don't think either most people would think to care nor do I believe pregame talk is terribly useful from experience)
I think #71 is another example of this -- I think elvis' slightly tongue in cheek point here (you call me town = I like you!) was obvious and Wisdom went the derp route with it.
In post 81, elvis_knits wrote:Hey Mr e roll, all you ever do is ask questions and don't really provide analysis.
It's getting annoying. I also think it's a way to fake participation. Like hey I'll just keep asking questions to look like I'm helping but I'm not actually doing shit! I havent even given any opinions!
VOTE: Mr. E roll
(Shut your pie hole, Wisdom!)
Wisdom does this as well, and unlike Mr. E Roll, his questions/comments are pretty much pointless.
That being said, I don't like how Xegarus is essentially lurking at this point, so
VOTE: Xegarus
Quick post
I haven't posted in 20 hours and that makes me a lurker?
...
Stop grasping at straws.
I think other than the beetlejuice (and with a sample size of 1 I'm not going to worry about that too much) The tone here is off. I'm getting a "your reasons for calling me scummy are insufficient" rather than a "I can't believe I'm even having this conversation" vibe from this. I see scum subconsciously having the former attitude and town having the latter.

e_k wrote:@ bork and Wisdom -- can you explain why you feel so confident that moth is town?
Yep --
My initial read was for #37, which I think is a good acknowledgement that scumreads are an analog thing and he wasn't trying to make a bigger deal out of his vote than needed to be on page 1/2.
The exchange with Majiffy solidified the read -- I think scum might've taken two potential routes with that
1) Continue the pissing match indefinitely in the hopes that someone calls it town on town or they see a crack in the armor
2) Immediately call Majiffy town for pushing back at all and ignore him
He(She?) didn't do either of those -- I think he acknowledged the playstyle gap and was willing to put the argument on hold, while not making a judgment that he didn't necessarily feel he had the answer to and pursuing other avenues.
I agree that the 6/3 speculation thing is null. It's maybe less null for someone out of practice for so long but meh. Some people don't dabble in normals.

I support the Xegarus wagon right now -- 165 is a bad bad post.
That said, there are plenty of people I don't have very good reads on and I'm not even remotely eager to end the day right now.
I'd like to hear more people's thoughts on Wisdom, Pala, Majiffy, Mr. E, and I'm going to try to harden my reads on the latter three of those players as well. I have better handles on the others. Not much I can do w/ CE right now.

I say this because she simply hasn't moved her vote and hasn't said "I confirm this Majiffy vote as no longer random" it's just been there the whole time.

This is why Pala is town
Meanwhile Jiffy doesn't like the intent to hammer so early, isn't sure about Xegarus' alignment (which is fine at this stage in general) but doesn't remove his vote

Majiffy wrote:"Ok maybe this may look _____ but" followed by doing EXACTLY what was just prescribed by another player as to "you would look town if" is a massive scumtell I used constantly on EM. I haven't seen it pop up much here.
Eh, fine. I wasn't looking at it with regard to my post.
Still, why did you NOT jump off it?

I mean at it's most primal level, the only real "mistake" you should be worried about is getting town lynched; withholding support on a wagon because of underdeveloped interactions that could lead to a better idea of who might be scum is perfectly reasonable.
You're emphasizing claiming rather than emphasizing what his alignment might be when he does flip. That is weird to me.

1) I addressed this -- I really don't want to end the day at all right now; Xegarus read is there but interactions with everyone are lacking. Pretty much no one is commenting on things NOT Xegarus (except Majiffy -- good on him for that)
2) Wisdom looked scummy early and hasn't really done anything to change that. Do I find him scummier than Xeg at this point? I don't know -- I think I need to reread for that. Majiffy says I'm misreading Wisdom's meta and I'd actually like him to elaborate on that.

In post 255, Pala wrote:@xeg - your vote on Bork is basically an omgus. What exactly is your case against him?
@mod - can you please prod Mr. E? Thanks
@moth - I don't recall seeing anything in your posts about xeg except for where you asked how the rest of us felt about CE given she was also short on content/posts. I will go back and see if I can find anything else after I've had some sleep as well.
FUCK YOU PALA YOU STUPID SITE BREAKING NINJA.
My vote against bork is because he very subjectively said something i did was scummy, hasn't said much about me since just that i'm scummy and refused to say anything relevant to the posts i have made.
He is just ignoreing what i am saying without the decency to correct me where i may be wrong.
If im so scummy to him, he should have no problem tearing my posts apart.
Uh yeah, the point of mafia is not to get people to admit they're being scummy or win an argument against them; it's to get their suspects lynched, and pretty much everyone wants you lynched right now. Having the "decency to correct you" is not an obligation nor goal of mine.
Still I'm wondering if you're voting me BECAUSE I'm not voting you -- looks less like OMGUS that way, and there are people taking a much more hardline stance against you without debating you into the ground.
Still not enough people giving reads on people other than Xegarus.

Seriously if you have to ask this, you're not paying any fucking attention.
Things I want to do
1) Get people's reads
2) Promote more interactions with the less involved players
3) Unstall the fucking game (get CE replaced?)
Things I don't want to do
1) Lynch you right now.
2) Get into a wall war with you. I'm sorry you don't think I'm explaining myself well to you but in the end I don't really care -- gauging your reactions to other things are more important than winning an argument.

I honestly did not know that was your angle, that I didn't explain why I didn't like one particular post of yours -- you voted me for agreeing with elvis about something and then say that I "haven't done anything" which is fucking shit -- I'm trying to clarify every slot as best as I'm able.
But really that post that I called bad draws very little conclusions and more importantly only comments on things that specifically concern your slot. In fact that's all you've done the whole game is responded to pressure.

In post 217, Wisdom wrote:I don't know, given she was hesistant to vote him early on (see 139), ignoring me there and L-1ing without any concern looked to me like nervousness about if she should vote or not. Maybe I'm speculating too much but that's the feeling I get.
Well, as you can see, Wisdom kinda already brought it up before.
Didn't notice it?

Pala wrote:but now this slip of his says otherwise.
Does it?
Does it really?
Why is that. Explain what I'm trying to accomplish here.
It does because it is either a bold faced lie or you weren't paying attention to the game. Either of those is a scumtell in my book, albeit a weak one in case it was the latter. Which it probably was since I can't see any motive for a lie in this instance.
1) I think Majiffy is town and I'm sheeping him: He also had a good point about you possibly unvoting in response to something I said rather than for the sake of breadth, although I can't say for sure that this is what you did.
2) You're testing the waters with your reaction to what I did and trying to see if anyone besides Wisdom is willing to bite on it. Why is not paying attention a scumtell (since you admit I have no reason to lie there)? [But really, what happened there is what I said in #294]

Pala I don't care about anything you said in your post except this:
Pala wrote:Was I doing the same reaction testing with what I said about elvis too, then? Do you still think that the point Xeg made about elvis is a valid one?
Explain this -- are you suggesting that I should call you out for exhibiting "testing the waters" (I assume that's what you mean because "reaction testing" makes no sense there) behavior about not only about me but also about elvis?
Why would what I think about Xegarus' point matter here? Why would my thoughts about it have changed (they haven't)

Dammit Majiffy do you think Wisdom is town? I've never seen him this utterly passive and ineffective before. It's still a better read than Pala is, which I'm mostly taking on faith.
