OK, thought I already answered these.In post 4101, F-16_Fighting_Falcon wrote:Cephrir, a few questions:
1) Explain your reversal of read on me. Everything you quoted in your catch up post seemed like you found it scummy.
2) Are you serious about the posts of Sakura that you quoted saying that you agreed why she was run up?
1) It never reversed. I did quote a few things I found scummy, but still wasn't scumreading you.
2) Mostly, I guess."I would prefer not to." --Herman Melville,Bartleby the Scrivener-

I am caught up, but figuring out who to lynch will take more time. This is not an easy game.
Cephrir and Bert stand out as capable scum who are currently active but not in the trenches.
I don't especially trust Generic, but tilting into someone who will probably claim a PR is worth at least a few points.
A scumteam based on Pieguy, whom I don't understand the townreads on:
Pieguy
Bro
BBQ?
Muffin or Desp
Ceph
VOTE: PieGuy
He'd be an effortscum, but how many players are left who wouldn't?
Casso is still an option. F16 less so.
I am somewhat disgusted by MC / GM being masons, but they laid considerable groundwork for the claim and haven't backed down.
It's worth mentioning that Marangal claimed masons as scum in Wingate, but she was also scummier in that game.-

3) I don't care whether I have presented a case or not despite this being a massive double standard

Are you going to keep fucking denying you're scum? "Hi I'm going to spew shit at you and I give no fucks if it's actually true or not that's your job of figuring out! Oh also I'm town!"
3) Yeah I'm done this please die scum.
2) I was agreeing with Muffin. If you have an issue, take it up with him, rather than deflecting the issue by starting a fight with me and throwing in some fake rage.
3) I'd prefer not to, if only marginally.
Incidentally, you're lucky I bothered to give a civil response here rather than vote you 50 times as I was originally going to.
I still have no idea whether or not I am wrong on the original point but your reactions have been pretty great!In post 4320, Ser Arthur Dayne wrote:
My favorite part about this statement is how it subtly implies that he knows he's wrong yet continuing the argument, whereas a town would've admitted he's wrong right away.In post 4316, Cephrir wrote:2) Your read magically changed because everyone else's did; it's their job mean if you have a problem with that assertion then you need to argue with it
It may be, not it is. But it seems safe to assume this is your meta without looking into it or someone else would have commented by now.In post 4342, pieguyn wrote:
the problem is that you're saying it's weird no matter what kind of post I make. if I make a logical post, it's too cold. if I make an emotional post it's weird bc I'm breaking from my logical style. you set up this false dichotomy (logical vs emotional) and then no matter which one I pick you paint it as scummy. if you're town this is confbiased as fuck and not to mention I know you said you try to avoid this when I was questioning you on D1. if you're scum it gives you an easy way to throw suspicion at meIn post 4289, Cephrir wrote:I have a slight dislike for the overall coldness even though it's probably a playstyle issue; breaking from it was annoying as well.
also, 170+ pages in and one of your main scumreads is probably a playstyle issue? srsly

lol when did this happen?In post 4352, Norlkaz wrote:I am somewhat disgusted by MC / GM being masons, but they laid considerable groundwork for the claim and haven't backed down.
I feel like everyone has been rehashing the same old shit, am I wrong?
Currently, my vote thoughts look something like this:
Well, SAD doesn't look 100% sparkly here and I don't like some of his responses to things, BUT I also don't like the look of that wagon. I mean, normally that shit doesn't bother me, but if only 1/6 voters is a townread then there's a step back I need to take.
Still working through ISOs, this would go so much faster if people hadn't posted so much fluff.-

MUFFIN'SSTATEMENTHASNOTHINGTODOWITHYOURS
You were not (key words: WERE NOT) agreeing with Muffin. You made a NEW accusation. JUST because you quote his post and then write something under it does not mean you're agreeing with the statement. He said I basically camped my vote and that I didn't explain my reads when I switched off of them. YOU came in and then said that it was "crowd following". These are two COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THINGS. What the hell do you mean "take it up with muffin"? Stop fucking scapegoating. You and him were NOT saying the same thing. Not remotely. Stop deflecting your wrong accusation and putting the blame elsewhere. I can see where he's coming from and I even agree with him (and I am aware of the weaknesses in my playstyle, so again, I see where he's coming from). However, the accusation you made is WRONG. So you're either scum and spewing shit or haven't been reading the fucking thread and think you can bullshit your way through the game. You've already claimed that the latter is not true. So that leaves me with the former. If you're wrong, which any townie would've realized by now, you would've maned the fuck up and admitted it instead of crying about "But why don't you go blame hiiiiiiim? ;_;".vezokpiraka: If you are playing on EUNE we can duo.

Tbf I read your posts before I read mafiassk's, but basically I always believe there's at least one scum that tries to go against the major wagon especially if it looks like it's going to go through anyways. Your recent posts have been saying you don't agree with my lynch, yet you offer no alternative neither do you make a full effort to convince anyone (supported by the fact you wishy-wash your statements by then putting a things you don't like - so no one that is currently on the wagon can even be convinced of the things you DO like because it looks like you're not even convinced of them yourself).In post 4341, zMuffinMan wrote:
cool. why?sad wrote:Muffin can start raking up some scumpoints for his recent posts.
Also do you usually take suspicion on you this lightly/calmly, or are you trying to materialize this air of coolness around you by brushing off suspicion on you in an attempt to look town?
I've explained the former already, and the latter I basically agree with MCM (I think it was them?) who said they're town in what they did concerning the sakura wagon.In post 4341, zMuffinMan wrote:also why geists scum and why casso town?vezokpiraka: If you are playing on EUNE we can duo.

I went for geists because a) I was struggling to read her, and b) I didn't think she would be lynched. Muffin and casso were both people I considered looking into, but both are people who I felt might get lynched pretty soon anyway. I don't want my confirms getting wagonned, because I either have to claim to protect them or lose a confirm. And less readable? That's relative. I was having difficulty reading someone who I expected to be able to read. I thought she was a good bet for scum, but didn't want to push for her lynch without some grounds other than my paranoia. You might have an easier time reading geists over casso and muffin, but I'm not sure I do. I'll pick people I have a hard time reading, I won't be investigating for your benefit because I cannot be sure about your alignment.In post 4345, F-16_Fighting_Falcon wrote:I don't feel great about your choice of investigation. I think you should have checked someone less readable - like Casso or Muffin for instance.-

See I have concerns about cephrir and I'm trying to decide exactly what it is.
The reads of the wagon are indeed consistent with his earlier reads, but it's exactly that sentence DOMO highlighted that pings something.
It's almost as if he had already determined how town the wagon was rather than the main thing being on a wagon should be, that you think the person is scum.
Yes you were asked for opinions of the players on that wagon, but you seemed to introduce whether the wagon was acceptably town enough.
I'm gonna scrutinise the arguement you had with SAD in a bit more detail to settle my mind on a few things, for now though I would rather the SAD wagon stays parked rather than accelerated.-

ok. i'm not convinced you're town but you're right that i don't agree with your lynch. the reason i'm not pushing anyone else yet is because i'm still going over ISOs. i made yours a priority read because of the wagon on you.sad wrote:Your recent posts have been saying you don't agree with my lynch, yet you offer no alternative neither do you make a full effort to convince anyone (supported by the fact you wishy-wash your statements by then putting a things you don't like - so no one that is currently on the wagon can even be convinced of the things you DO like because it looks like you're not even convinced of them yourself).
the things i don't like are the things i don't like and i'm not going to avoid mentioning those things just because i think you might be town. your read progression on me is still one of the things i don't like about you because i don't understand how you went from initially thinking i'm town to thinking i'm scum (or at least a worthwhile vote) to changing your mind about me at some point between the end of D1 and that reads list you recently gave to now thinking i'm scum again (or at least that i've earned "scum points"?). it'd be nice if you actually explained what was going on with this.

I am not the best person to tell you that since I am scumreading Cephrir based on his posts about me which is hardly unbiased. I'll re-evaluate his interaction with other people and go through his other games when I find time. I read through your argument with him and I didn't find anything alignment indicative. I can see "misreps" coming from both town and scum. I had a huge argument with Bulbazak in Micro 252 where I thought he was scum because of perceived misreps on his part but when I took a step back and objectively analyzed his posts, I realized he was town. Cephrir's play reminded me of Bulbazak's a lot in that he tends to attack nearly everything his scumreads do so a similar strategy like not looking into what he said about me in particular might help figure out his alignment. Let's try this: you go through Cephrir's posts about me and offer your opinions. I'll go through his posts about you and offer mine.In post 4321, Ser Arthur Dayne wrote:
Hi, you seem like a reasonable fellow in this town of crazies please tell me you see where I'm coming from with Ceph and that I'm not just seeing everything he does as scum and it's an ad hom attack.In post 4317, F-16_Fighting_Falcon wrote:
Okay, I like that your read reversal is internally consistent. It seems like you re-evaluated your reads based on the nk. 3930 matches up with that theory.In post 4314, Ser Arthur Dayne wrote:
Your scum-partners could agree better with you when you say "I don't want to kill Tammy because she's townreading me and we're bouncing off ideas off each other and I feel I can influence her when we need" rather than were I to say "Hi I don't want to kill Tammy because I'm enjoying playing with her".In post 4313, F-16_Fighting_Falcon wrote:Arthur, you agreed with me that a Tammy nk shouldn't necessarily make you town but you townread me based on it, why? Wouldn't the same reasoning apply to me?
Cmon bro. Too ez.
Cephrir, I'd like a response to my questions in 4101.
Also, what is your read on Desperado? In 4113, you talk about how you are going to prove him to be a moron at endgame implying you think he is town. Has your read changed since D1 and when you posted your tiers? What other reads of yours were influenced by the nightkill?-
