[Untrod Tripod]

the definitely was a town-motivated series of posts from Quilford yessiree nothing weird or awkward there

unvote vote Quilford

[Untrod Tripod]

like, honestly, hito's response was "nuh uh" and you unvoted him

what is that shit

[Quilford]

like, honestly, hito's response was "nuh uh" and you unvoted him

No it wasn't?

Ut you're not actually scum are you pls don't actually be scum

[Untrod Tripod]

girl please

[Untrod Tripod]

like, girl, that's even weaker than your vote/unvote/vote combo

which was pretty fuckin weak itself

[Quilford]

Hitos response was 'doesn't this look like an (unnecessary) abbreviated catch-up promise post to you' and then I was 'no it doesn't but I can see why you would think it does' with the implication being 'oh I thought that hito was making a mountain out of a molehill re Otolia's post but he wasn't really'

I don't like ur massive oversimplification

[Untrod Tripod]

well I don't like ur FACE

[Quilford]

booooooo

[Untrod Tripod]

it's okay, you can talk to your PT about it

[Quilford]

I will then

[Wrong Song]

that otolia post is kinda gross. no random vote or nuthin. Like he's already scared there's content he's gotta fake so he gives what essentially feels like a prod dodge post in a game where nothing's happened.

Unvote, Vote: Otolia

VOTE: hitogoroshi

Seems like a lot of extrapolation to me.

I actually agree with this. I don't really find contentless posts scummy in early game especially if it's RL related, however, if he doesn't produce content after the time he said he would then I find it suspicious.

There's also a few players who have posted "content"-less posts, but haven't prod-dodged and Hito didn't jump on them.

Why not vote me, then?

Didn't feel like it. Wanted to see your reaction.

[hitogoroshi]

Surely my reaction to a vote would be more telling than my reaction to a post.

[Wrong Song]

You had a vote already on you. I didn't see the point to put a second one on you during that time.

[Dinare]

Ut you're not actually scum are you pls don't actually be scum

And yet you've moved off of a semi-serious vote into a vote back onto UT. If you don't actually think he's scum, what's up with the vote?

You had a vote already on you. I didn't see the point to put a second one on you during that time.

The vote has been removed and you have had the opportunity to vote Hito since then, why have you not done so? And what makes L-5 so different from L-6 that you did not want Hito there in the first place?

:III

[Otolia]

that doesn't read like an abbreviated "I'm behind, but I'll catch up soon" post to you? I've read a million of those on ms and his post seems to have that same DNA. which is what weirds me out because it's super inappropriate here.

but hey, if you don't subscribe to that line of thought, we can always talk about his reaction where he didn't random vote OR vote me

You supposed I wasn't following the game ... with is false. I just didn't post yet. I was on a different laptop yesterday.

[Otolia]

which is false*

Also I'll be V/LA in Istanbul from the 30th of April to the 10th of May, I'm looking for a temporary replacement.

[elusive]

Ok, yay Equinox game!

Ghost VC is interesting. I wonder if there as a way to automate or script VCs?

Otolia do you mean VLA or ?

VOTE: Quilford
A bit jumpy, yes?


I lightly know a few of the people in this game but it seems like mostly new names or alts.

RQS Question Time

If you're town, you'll answer and if you're scum you won't so the vig has a clear shot

1. What are your thoughts on meta and how effective is it in scum hunting?
2. What is the main tool you rely on for scum hunting (VCA, interaction or behavioral analysis, whim, etc)?
3. Favorite TV show of all time
4. The sneakiest thing you did as scum and the stupidest thing you did as town?

[Untrod Tripod]

TASKY?????????????????

1. What are your thoughts on meta and how effective is it in scum hunting?

Meta is trash.

2. What is the main tool you rely on for scum hunting (VCA, interaction or behavioral analysis, whim, etc)?

Behavior.

3. Favorite TV show of all time

The Wire.

4. The sneakiest thing you did as scum and the stupidest thing you did as town?

I dunno. It all seems very sneaky at the time. Stupidest thing as town would be letting Reck live in Andrius's last game when I knew he was scum.

[Dinare]

:III

So, you're answer is to post useless nonsense... good to know.

1. Depends on the person you're using it on. For scumhunting it can be useful in getting an initial read, but in securing a lynch not so much.

2. Don't know yet. I've had 3 games on this site so far. The first one I was town, and I pretty much had no idea what I was doing. The other 2 I was mafia. So I don't actually have a method of scum-hunting yet. My last game I faked interaction and behavioral analysis pretty well, so I would think that would be what I use, but we shall see.

4. umm, my last game I got everyone to trust me throughout almost the entire game, didn't really do anything in particular, just lots of towncred. I don't actually remember my one town game much, and all record of my being there was lost, so good luck finding that.

[hitogoroshi]

What? I'm not saying you "weren't following the game", I'm saying your strange belief there's a game to follow is spooky. And your continued lack of vote causes me physical pain.

1. What are your thoughts on meta and how effective is it in scum hunting?

Useful in small doses, overhyped. Scum like to use it to backpedal off of unpopular opinions so I come down a bit hard on people requesting meta.

2. What is the main tool you rely on for scum hunting (VCA, interaction or behavioral analysis, whim, etc)?

Accountability. Town want to be held accountable to their actions; scum, their words. I used to have a decent set of "scum tells" but I've boiled it down to the tiny handful that actually work. They all tend to involve accountability in one way or another.

3. Favorite TV show of all time

Man, I am not a TV dude at all. HunterxHunter or QI, maybe?

4. The sneakiest thing you did as scum and the stupidest thing you did as town?

I am notoriously transparent so hard to think of sneaky scum things. I guess it's funny that I'm actually a bit better fooling people in private convos than the thread, see Court of the Gods and the early days of Always On (I got caught later because I am hito and I get caught as scum, but I fooled people early in private convos!). Stupidest thing as town, maybe vigging Klazam in Strategy Mafia? He was pretty obvtown but then did something hugely scum favored mechanically, and I was obsessed with the idea he was scum getting the advantage instead of town playing poorly. I got a lot of shit for that one. In fact yeah, my biggest town blind spot is easily "If they are scum they CANNOT get away with this" leading me to mislynch more than my fair share of players doing silly things instead of reading them out. El G in SAIII was another example.
