Yeah, it would have been. Because it would have been a poor, not-very-strong reason.

Yeah, but it's usually a silly/funny/nonsensical etc reason. Your vote wouldnothave been RVS if you had voted me for voting Kaboose.
Yeah, it could be argued that. Case closed.In post 123, BlueBloodedToffee wrote:Is there? It could be argued it's better scum strategy to leave the newbies until the later game phase where they can be easier to manipulate than more experienced players. What do you think about that?

Remember, the question in question was
In post 12, Kaboose wrote:What do I do if the person I wanted to vote for in RVS is already taken?
Which is something that a newbie might not know. A newbie asking this doesn't make them scummy. Someone who knows the game though, should know the answer to this question. It looks like fake confusion. Who wants to befuddle? Scum. A practised player, a not-noob, should know the answer.

Sure, exaggeration is great and all that, but, is drunk posting a scum-tell or not?
It doesn't matter, as according to you, RVS can be for a "nonsensical reason." Consider this that; I said it was always a scumtell, and that was nonsense.
Or, if you'd prefer, I'll say, no, there's no trend (to my knowledge) of scum doing this more than town. So no, it isn't a scumtell. It still is, though, anti-town. It still is, too, a dickbag move.Integrity, Pride, Confidence, Anger, and Truth.-

Oh, um-- sorry? Let me grab your ISO real quick...In post 125, 4burner wrote:@Whiskers why is the exaggeration defense only coming out now and not earlier when I asked you much the same questions as BBT here?
You mean post 108? Look, you and BeeBs are asking pretty much the same questions so I'm just cherry picking what I answer and when-- I'm pretty sure I've gotten to everything by this point, though.
Also, I didn't think it would be such a thing. For a while, I would make a post and assume we were done with the issue. I'm not sure why a first-post,RVS voteis up for discussion, especially one this in-depth.
In post 125, 4burner wrote:Your RVS did not seem very RVS like at all. You would have voted BBT but chose Guyett for drunk post, as has been mentioned with an always qualifier to really ram home how often drunkposting is a scumtell. Seems suspect. WhaWhat's the story here without any glibness or nebulous reasoning?
I would have voted BBT for a weak-but-real reason, one that I didn't think made him scum, necessarily, but that's ok in the first post of the game, on page 2, when there are no strong reads or tells, andnobodyshould be "definitely scum" to anybody else. I WOULD HAVE VOTED BBT, as a weak-reasonedRVS vote.
Then I kept reading and say Guyett's post. It made me mad, because he was posting while drunk. Instead of the otherRVS voteI was prepared to make, I made that one. "It made me mad" is the reasoning for myRVS voteon Guyett.Integrity, Pride, Confidence, Anger, and Truth.-

Again, nothing to go on. Your wagon will be better for information at a later stage when it can be anaylized better, after a few flips. Right now there is nothing in it that would be worth following up, it was for all intensive purposes the opening RVS bandwagon that comes in nearly every game.
For allintents and purposes,you might mean. Yes, it was that. But if it wasn't worth bringing up for analysis or discussion, why did you bring it up?

Why do you insist it was an overreaction? It wasn't even that strong of a reaction, I didn't use caps or italics or anything. Tell me what makes you say I was over reacting, because it seems to be the foundation of your attack and scum read on me, and it's fucking annoying.Idon't feel I over reacted, by my quote and short mention of BBT's post, butyouclearly do, so go on. Clue me in.
What makes it an "over reaction"?
They aren't redundant though. No one's said them yet. And more importantly, they're useful for me-- that's why I gave a reason at all; if I didn't, I'd forget why I'm reading them that way. As it stands, I can scroll up the page and go, "Ah, scripten is making sense to me, having good reasons behind the thoughts he's sharing. He seems to be actively scumhunting," and, "Guyett hops on the Kaboose bandwagon because according to him, kaboose is good as town, and apparently isn't playing good enough right now."In post 139, Red Arrow wrote:In post 109, Whiskers wrote:
Yes, that is accurate.
Though, what about my reads is "redundant," as you call them?
you really want me to explain why your reads are redundant? because there is nothing to them, they seem like you are randomly spouting names for the sake of making it seem you have reads. As I said, you're half assing things and not really following up on your reads as to why these people are town/scum.
So hows about you stop half assing, and get your ass into gear?
Which, before I get attacked for tunnel-vision, is separate from the drunk-posting bit. Guyett is basically making a meta attack on Kaboose, and not a very good one. While Kaboose may be scum, it's not because "he's good when he's town," and saying that "he's not good enough to be his town meta" is a very fucking weak argument
So: I listed those reads the way I did as a note-to-self, and to update the game on some spare reads I had.
And anybody else who wanted to know about 'em, could ask. Although when I type that down, I think about how I've attacked people in the past for that: "They should have just listed the reason for their reads in their initial post!" So that makes me a bit of a hypocrite.
You're really not caring about actually catching scum are you?
Maybe a bit early to speculate on teams and connections without a flip but I am liking Kab/Whiskers as a scum partnership.. And further makes me think my thoughts of over-reaction to a Kab vote by Whiskers earlier is justified. [/quote] What makes you say that, actually? What makes you think I'm "not interested in catching scum"? Look here, kid:
My involvement in this game so far has beenentirelypushing off little nits that decide they want to fight with me about an RVS vote and post that I made. I'm beating three of you off with a stick over thefirst post I made in the game.
Pick a serious topic to talk about and I will maybe take you more seriously. Pick a different topic to talk about, and I won't feel like I have to make all of my posts about defending myself. As it is, most or all of my posting is dumped, wasted, on this incredulous, sarcastic defence against an inane attack that I'm still scratching my head over why it happened.
Good for you. One post, a sarcastic one at that, might be a bit too little information to start basingIn post 141, Red Arrow wrote:Yeah, I am liking Whiskers/Kab right now.scumteamson.
Keep in mind, I wasn't chainsaw-defending Kaboose, I was attacking BBT for scummy behaviour. Later, when I looked into it, I found that the person BBT attacked wasn't actually a noob-- meaning that whatIhad attacked them for wasn't eve scummy. So I backed off about it. It was never about Kaboose being the one under attack, it was about BBT potentially going for an easy target. It was alsosuper weak reasoningthatwouldn't normally warrant a vote, but it was my first post of the game, page 2, most everyone was still in RVS stage, so I went ahead and offered up that I WOULD have laid down my RVS vote right there, on theweak attack(you know, the one that was WEAK and NOT an Overreaction?) I made on BBT.
ALSO
You're complaining about how you can't possibly analyse the BBT wagon, or question anybody on that wagon, because nobody's flipped and it won't be useful until later days? That's perfectly true, but still you're trying to create and match scumteams, a method that isuselessuntil one scum member has flipped. If you want to flip me to see if I'm scum, that's fine, but don't try to convince people I'm scum because I'm supposedly partners with another unflipped scum. Pick a camp: is it too early to analyse shit? or am I scum with Kaboose? If the former, why are you making proposed teams? If the latter, why aren't you doing shit about the BBT wagon thatYOUemphasized early on?Integrity, Pride, Confidence, Anger, and Truth.-

ok cool
Also your role sounds incredibly dangerous to town-- or incredibly helpful to town, if you're town. Honestly, I kind prefer to think it's the latter. Otherwise, we know we have vengefuls or SKs or Vigilantes-- town-aligned killing roles.
Oh! though, deathfisario makes a good point: if the power is 1-shot, it's fairly balanced to give to scum.

I think I now have a conjecture on how to balance a 10:3 full PR game. My initial thought was something in lines of "1 shot lynchproof" mafia PR. Like, if it activates the day just ends there and the lynchee doesn't die. But that still leaves a full night worth of town PR gang powers to fight against. So it may still be town-favoured.
How about a "1 shot lynch return" on top of being lynchproof, the hammerer dies instead of the lynchee. If scums discuss their PRs in pregame PT, they're not gonna fall victim to their teammates powers so it removes 1 town and they get to shoot too.
Originally just wanted to know the scumcount but since you're dropping breadcrumbs I'm gonna eat them and play outsmart the mod =P
Man, reading this again. Why are you so concerned with the well being of the scum team? I mean, you're typing out a way in your head to make sure it's balanced for scum, why would you care if it's balanced for scum? Shouldn't you want an advantage?
Also why are you trying to outsmart the mod instead of scum?

Do you think that him outing his possible lynchproofiness is something that scum would do?
Now,thisis actually pretty interesting. On one hand, sure, why wouldn't he? He's trying to avoid a lynch, so why not breadcrumb a role like that? If he's scum, why not try to get people to lynch him even? If he really is lynchproof, and the lynch fails, Town loses their D1 lynch. Correct?
What strikes me as odd is, if he were faking the claim, why would he claim LP, specifically? It's a little odd.
So I'm taking his claim as true-- the question still remains if he's town or scum, though.
In post 167, BROseidon wrote:In post 136, Scripten wrote:It's pretty simple. Kaboose's "I'm not playing until you threaten to kill me" is so anti-town that I cannot fathom it coming from a town player. I'm significantly more sure of his scum-ness than I am of 4burner due to a combination of his play and the post I quoted. I can see potential town motivation behind 4burner's posts, but not Kaboose's.
The bigger issue I have with is is that he crumbed BP, which defeats the whole purpose of being BP if town and is a fairly basic claim for scum to make.
Do you mean earlier, the bit about, "I won't be dying"?
Later he crumbs lynchproof, instead.Integrity, Pride, Confidence, Anger, and Truth.-

This gives me pause, though. Where do you stand on Kaboose being town right at this very moment? Because in the same post you make allusions to him being town and scum. (Note: Not town or scum.) Might just be due to it being a ketchup post, but eh... assumptions and stuff.-

Not sure what you mean. I don't think I said anything about him being both town and scum at the same time; obviously he must be one or the other.
I'm optimistic about him being scum, but no guarantee... I think he probably would have been the lynch for today, eventually anyway, but I wasn't ready for the day to end-- and neither, I think, was anybody else.

COMMENT
By George Ankers
English football is reeling after Hull City's shock expulsion from the Premier League on Sunday.
Though news had leaked of an emergency conference between member clubs to answer rumours of a malevolent force rotting the game from the inside, few had expected the notoriously insular Premier League administration to take such drastic steps.
Outrage, however, has quickly spread among the Hull faithful, as well as concerned neutrals, at the league's citing of "improper hiring practice" as its reason for ejecting the Tigers, whose manager, Steve Bruce, signed his son, centre-back Alex, in July 2012.
The fury is certainly justified. While perhaps dodgy, there can be no doubt that football faces much greater problems than nepotism in this modern age. If the Premier League is to retain its credibility then it must identify and deal with more egregious offences rather than scapegoat a much-loved club.
Night 1 now begins. You will have an extended Night whilst I wait on the prods, meaning Night will end at 2pm GMT on Wednesday 31st December 2014. Please PM me your Night Actions by then-

EXCLUSIVE
By George Ankers
Former Burnley manager Sean Dyche is furious about the club's forced disbandment due to Financial Fair Play breaches.
It emerged on Wednesday that the Clarets have sensationally been found guilty by Uefa of spending far beyond their means, a verdict branded as "ludicrous" by Dyche. His views are echoed by many fans, who point to a lack of summer spending since their unexpected promotion to the Premier League as evidence that such a breach could not be possible.
"It's an utterly ludicrous situation," Dyche toldGoal. "If you look at us compared to the likes of Manchester City, Chelsea ... how could we be the ones who have overspent? I don't want to talk about officials but it certainly feels like we'd be getting a fairer crack of the whip if we were a bigger club."
Dyche is now being considered as a potential successor to Steve Bruce at now-Championship-bound Hull City but the fate of Burnley should have many more worried for their futures in this strained time for English football.
Day 2 now begins. With 11 alive, it takes 6 to lynch. Deadline is in 10 days, at 2pm GMT on Saturday 10th January 2015-

You voted before the mod announcement. I can understand BBT's behaviour but you predicted 1 hour into the future. Care to explain 194?
And you quoted a 2 year old post from a 3 year old thread to support your vote that happened prior to mod confirm. And in strictly less than 9 minutes you found Nexus' post about Liverpool and you're not going to end up with that post if you just search for Liverpool, you'd have to specifically search for Liverpool + Nexus combo. I don't understand why you went through the trouble and how you were so decisive.
