Wow, already declaring town and scum tells on the first page? Thats fast.
I'm fine with it, attacking someone because they say you are being silly with voting everyone and then basically calling it OMGUS because the vote ended up on them seems very...attacky? Um, overly agressive, wanting to lynch quickly, too hostile. You know what I mean, right? I can't think of the word for it right now, but I'm pretty sure there is one...I guess I'll just say 'scummy' for now.Ghostlin wrote:...

I see that as a bit scummy, forcing RVS to end by making a "trap" like that in order to attack the first person who questions it isn't very townie play. Townies would just wait for somebody to mess up all on their own from the pressure instead of trying to pull a bizzare gambit thingy to end RVS faster. Ending it faster with a "trap" would just mean that the only things that could be talked about early in the game would be the person/people who "fell" for the "trap" and the "trap" itself, thus stifling debate, thus scummy. It was a bit more scummy in this case since the people who talked about the voting didn't even make this huge deal out of it or anything scummy like that, but gxw acted like they did.Forseti wrote:...
I WAS intrigued by the fact that he says he aimed to use it to reaction-fish though. I've never seen anyone do something like that as anything more than a joke, personally. Curious to know how others see that, because I've always treated RVS as a fluid phase that generally get ended by accident, and in general have never been fond of seeing it forced to an end artificially, particularly not at a point where very few others had checked in at all.

Well first off, I don't really think of those traps as containing any real evidence of the person falling for them being scum, since the only ones I've seen have been rather silly...null tells on them, to be precise.Dazzy wrote:...
@King: How would you prefer to create pressure on the mafia (not a random player), rather than a play designed to catch scum?
But I would say a bunch of people vote for each other wily-nilly until somebodies like "why you votin' this guy" and the other guy gives an explanation and it all ends up snowballing from there into some real discussion, or something along those lines. If you do it that way everybody has a chance to say stuff about what is going on (and possibly incriminate themselves), and we can analyse their posts to move forward in the day from there, but if you just make a trap thing or something like that to end it quick nobody makes those posts, and there is much less to analyse at the start of the game. 'Cause like I said, all we really have available to talk about is the trap now, instead of various wagons and votes and ect.ShowWin-Loss Ratio

FarmeriXi self-voted first post, though he did unvote in the same post, I have seen scum do that in a game and he got killed for it so apparently scum do that sometimes for some reason. He also acted all wierd and nonsensical, and has yet to post a serious type post with serious type reads, so I give neutral-scum read to him. So yeah, talk some more FarmeriXi.ShowWin-Loss Ratio

Actually, both those reasons are incorrect. I didn't vote him because I recently got slammed in a different game where I voted based on someone else's argument, and then it turned out that the guy the argument was against had a bunch of reasons for everything and utterly destroyed the argument against him, and I had to remove my vote and put it back the very next post. Everyone said it was really scummy of me to just sheep somebody else's argument (it was) and I lost a bunch of credibility because of it. So I am waiting to see if Charlie has one of those counters or not so that doesn't happen again. If he doesn't I'm-a-gonna vote him immediatly (unless he gets knocked to L-1) after his post.FarmeriXi wrote:...
@King: Why did you not go ahead and vote for Charlie, you said you "probably" would. I don't understand why you didn't after giving your reasons for thinking Charlie is scum. Is it that you don't want to seem like scum for putting a late vote on Charlie?
Yes, this could be scum talk. Waiting to see if more votes go Charlie's way and yes it could be townie, bc you don't want to be the reason Charlie winds up at L-1 or lynch "if" the real scum vote him afterwards. Personally I find it as scummy, too so easily accept an explanation from GXW then jump on the Charlie wagon without adding any real thoughts of your own about the "contradictions". If you had just voted Charlie or not told your move it wouldn't have stood out so.

Lynching someone and putting someone at L-1 are two very different things. One of the two ends the day and kills the person, just as an example.FarmeriXi wrote:...
More so, in his defense he stated he would not vote if Charlie is at L-1. His recent vote placed Charlie at L-1. Funny thing about that is that his post #72 he claimed then Charlie was at L-1 which Ghostlin corrected stating he was at L-2, then King's very next post was a vote for Charlie placing him at L-1.
Clearly scum. King will not be the reason Charlie is lynched at L-1 by placing a hammer, but King will put Charlie at L-1 making it an easy lynch for the mafia. King says,
Charlie is at L-1, next vote on him lynches, so don't go voting wildly.
but then his next move is to put Charlie at L-1. If so worried why vote? Charlie clearly has enough pressure on him at L-2 to withhold a L-1 vote for a little bit.
So...what? Was my explanation lacking somehow? I thought I explained why I did that fairly well. Or are you just saying that it doesn't matter what defense I give its scummy no matter what? Even if I had a perfectly good reason for doing what I did?FarmeriXi wrote:...
So far, as mentioned in my previous post, the only real question I have was directed toward KTS for his "probably vote Charlie" comment. That was very scummy to me and I know he has given his reasoning, but that doesn't take back the original comment.
I have no idea what that hammering part is saying.Forseti wrote:I actually do not like this Charlie wagon, not to the point of someone being supposedly willing to hammer him certainly.
Well, in my own words, the contradictions would be him saying he plays very cautiously and then being very not-cautious shortly afterward. Shortly after that (shortly as in, immediatly after it in the very same post) he went back to being cautious again. Thus, contradicting himself.Forseti wrote:...

He voted soley due to gut, andForseti wrote:...
Also, I would argue he set out his vote on TS with a certain amount of caution. Using your vote on your lead suspect =/= scummy in and of itself, and given the nature of the wagon, and given the context of his interaction with me in the leadup to it, making it perfectly obvious and plain that it's going to L-2 at that point seemed like a fairly logical thing to do.
Would you say YOU were showing recklessness or caution by putting Charlie to L-1 and shouting loudly that it was, in fact, L-1? I see little difference in the scenarios, other than the vote count. Especially not since you've been also stating your caution about doing certain things because of your past game experience. Either he made one reckless move, in which case you've been as reckless, if not more so, or what you did wasn't all that reckless, and if yours wasn't, his CERTAINLY wasn't given that TS was further away from a lynch than Charlie is.
...hethought someone might try to hammer TS. That "He thought that" part is important. That seems fairly reckless if he believed it might happen. I however, do not think that will happen. It would be pretty stupid for anyone to purpousefully quicklynch day 1, in my opinion, so I loudly said he was at L-1 so nobody would accidentally kill him. Thus, from our own points of view, I was acting cautious(ish) and he was acting reckless.
I'm gonna quote him now:Charlie wrote:...
Mmm, I don't agree with this and you've said things which you cannot prove, like "you're almost certain". Anyway, the whole post strikes me a bit odd.Call it gut if you will, but I believe this is deserving of a vote.

This is L-2. That's 2 more votes to lynch, sobe careful when placing new votes on him.A premature lynch does not benefit anyone but Mafia.

That isn't irrelevent, when he says that it seems to blatant he is saying that it is, ah, what was the phrase? "Too scummy to be scum"? Something like that. Incidentally, "too scummy to be scum" seems like a scummy argument to me.

Sure you can counter this argument with WIFOM, but Farmerxi knows how active I was in the last game and I wan't scum. Also, unlike scum, I'm not afraid of my lynch as then you'll see that all my suspicions were townie ones, not scum ones, when I flip town.
This is why the mafia always keep me alive. I'm active. Therefore I post a lot, therefore there are more chances for me to slip up.
anyaways, I claim Vanilla townie. no fancy roles.
If you choose to believe me or not, that's your choice. I can't force you to believe I'm town, and I won't blame any of you for hammering me.
It's your choice. never forget that the town's greatest weapon is their voice. Let it be heard.

I do not believe your town read on me was caused by that, as a good reason for me as scum to not hammer you would be that I would be totally exposed as scum.

You vote Dazzy without even mentioning why. you seem to think 'Oh and also' explains your vote.
You're trying to get a counter-wagon going here to protect your scumbuddy charlie. This is obvious. Especially because you didn't give a reason.

You should at least check to see if your accusation is correct when people say it isn't, especially since its been a while since Forseti first called you out on it in ALL CAPS. And, oh yeah? Rushing a lynch is scummy.Twistedspoon wrote:

If no-one's hammering or asking questions then what's the next step?
Who says I'm not gonna hammer you? I'm totally about to hammer you. Like, you have one more post to defend yourself before I hammer. The next step is likely for you to fail to defend yourself adequetly and then I hammer you.
Oh, and the reason I have switched from "I agree with no lynching immediatly" to "lynch TS" is because he ignored like 3/4 of my entire giant argument, then said that there was no Dazzy case to counter the other 1/4, which is a flat-out lie, and His explanations for "not looking back and checking" don't jive with me. If he was in a rush he wouldn't have had the time to continue arguing and whatnot for like 6 hours after the original statement of "I have a case on Dazzy" was made, and he wouldn't continue being "in a rush" whilst simultaneously posting regularly in the thread for so long. If he was in a rush he would have made one post and then been unable to make more.ShowWin-Loss Ratio

...Ok, thats a really good point. I was only really thinking about how scummy TS was and if it warrented me hammering him, I didn't even consider letting him live to get info from the other guys who havn't said anything about him yet.Forseti wrote:@KingTwelveSixteen
I think it would be prudent to give some of the guys that haven't posted in a while to post before hammering. Im okay TS going, however, I'd like to see some comment on all of this from the likes of Ghostlin, Farmerixi and gxw (who, let's face it, has only really posted in the last couple of days to talk about how he wants to hammer people).

I have a gigantic post just a little while back there with me saying what I think TS has done that is scummy. The only thing I didn't include in that huge post and the couple of posts that followed it that was scummy that I can think of would be this:Ghostlin wrote:...
King Twelvesixteen:
I don't like this. We're trying to stop people from quickhammering, you accuse TS of being overzealous of it, and the next breath you say you're willing to do that, and it's mostly because he blew off your arguments. It reads contradictory, which reads scummy, because scum like quickhammers. They don't mind accusing others of what they could be responsible of with a 'well, he was going to do it!' You went from null leaning town to null leaning scum here.Who says I'm not gonna hammer you? I'm totally about to hammer you. Like, you have one more post to defend yourself before I hammer. The next step is likely for you to fail to defend yourself adequetly and then I hammer you.
Here's what'd I'd ask of you. Lay out your TS case, point by point. If you have ISO him, do it. Give us analysis of what you find scummy most versus someone of the other townsfolk.

Wherin he says that everyone is tunneling him and they should consider alternatives, but doesn't give any counters for arguments or arguments explaining how people are tunneling him or any alternative people should consider.Twistedspoon wrote:...
I'll cool off for a bit and let you guys catch up, but you guys seriously need to find other alternatives to my self because you're all tunneling right now, and once you've realised this mistake you'll be left with no alternate suspects.
So for the good of the town let's move onto alternatives
Though the big thing that made me want to lynch him would be, yes, that he blew off my post that was like 3 pages worth of words and almost entirely against him like it wasn't even there, and instead he strawmaned onto just a part of my argument and "countered" it with anout-right lie.He also acted like nobody had asked him any direct questions when my post had a couple questions, both implied and direct. And then there was the thing with him saying I now have a town read from him for not lynching him immediatly.
I guess I shouldn't have been willing to lynch him so quickly without everyone commenting on it, but seriously that was so incredibly scummy.
Hm, you know you never commented on that contradiction Forseti. It can't be blatant and yet unnoticable.KingTwelveSixteen wrote:...

Ok, I just realised something. The reason I felt fine with lynching TS so quickly when I felt it was scummy for him to want to lynch Charlie so early was that I was thinking of quicklynches being scummy mainly because the person being lynchedcouldn't defend themselves,since they died so quickly, and because a general bit of "not enough stuff has happened in the day yet" sometimes, but there is another reason it is scummy that I didn't really think much about until Forseti pointed it out, that it is scummy becausenobody can comment on the lynch.
That is why I seemed to contradict myself, TS responded to my case with a horribly bad "defense," and there had been enough talking for me to get some good reads in, so at the time I didn't think it would be anti-town or anything to lynch him. Of course now that I know the other reason, and think of it as a good reason (which it is), I will be more careful with my lynches and blah blah moral of the story blah.ShowWin-Loss Ratio

Guh, my computer ate my post. Here is an approximation of the points I made in list format, listed in the order I think of them.
----------------------
1. Farmer claims to have overstated(lied) about my scumminess to see my reaction in order to cover his inconsistency.
2. I apparently reacted townie-like, as he hasn't made any solid accusations of scumminess past stuff about my vote on Charlie.
3. He apparently thinks I am scummy soley because I said I was going to vote "to quickly".
4. Several other people have been less cautious with their votes. Farmer has shown little-to-no suspicion to any of these players. Or any player other than me actually. In fact,Tunnel, tunnel, tunnel.the only person FarmeriXi has expressed suspicion of in this entire game is me.
5. My post warrants no more explanation in my opinion, I didn't vote immediatly because I didn't want to blindly sheep someone else's argument, when it could have been just a misunderstanding or a misrep or something.
6. Why would scum-me need to signal his partner about anything? I would have told this hypothetical partner not to quicklynch until LyLo in the QT scum get before the game instead of making myself vulnerable by stating it in-thread, and I'm pretty sure nobody removed themselves from the pressure on Charlie after my post anyway so the second reason I would send a signal is moot.
7. Farmer has a scum-read, but he is pushingme insteadbecause of a minor issue with voting style, and letting the scummy person get off scot-free.
9. You can't "know" both mafia have been involved with anything yet.
10. Farmer has specifically not commented on the TS and Charlie wagons other than "I think they are town. I will give no reasons for this belief" for the entirety of the game.
11.Yeah, last I checked I was kind of the only person pushing you and I wasn't even voting you. In fact nobody is voting you. Why would you think that you were going to be lynched today? Is there perhaps a"If I make it through D1 lynch"reasonwe would want to lynch you today? Like say, that you are scum?
12. Farmer started pushing me when I made a post that included me saying I had a neutral-scum read on him. OMGUS.
13. The part about making it through the lynch also further delays Farmer needing to post actual content on anybody other than me.
Vote: FarmeriXi
8. Twistedspoon's continued defense to the arguments against him has been mostly AtE.
--------------
That part about not making it through the lynch I only noticed whilst writing this up, and is the main reason I voted instead of FoSing him like I originally did.ShowWin-Loss Ratio

What mistake did you point out?Meransiel wrote:Nah, it was just pointing out a mistake.
Even if thats how you really saw it then your post is still untrue, I'm not focusing entirely on you as I clearly spent some focus on calling TS scum/lazy. (It was the first one.)Meransiel wrote:I mean, the way he put it sounds like he was accusing Ts of being lazy, not scum.
I never stopped thinking he was scummy. I just havn't voted him because of the whole hammering thing, and then like 2 pages later Charlie says he is newbtown and everyone else just accepts his AtE counter-arguments (and distinct lack of arguments on certain points) without any comment. Kinda annoying since the only reason I didn't hammer was to get other people's reactions to him...Dazzy wrote:...
It seems that we've decided that TS is town, though i have to say I'm not comfortable with that.
...
What are your thoughts everyone?
...
Er, wait. I'm rereading and it is merely Charlie/Farmer who start saying TS is town, the other people just stopped talking entirely or replaced out (and then the replacements said not to kill him), and Ghostlin still made a couple more points. It is merely that TS never did respond to most of the points I made in my giant post, and has instead been saying really wierd and scummy things that for some reason I didn't respond to back when he made them. In fact, he's still making wierd posts.
Like this: it reads as if he is making excuses for being scummy instead of explaining his behavior. "I get discussion going at the expense of looking like scum" is just an excuse for looking like scum and trying to make it out to be a good thing, even though it is clearly not.Twistedspoon wrote:when i say 100% sure I'm usually wrong, especially in LyLo
took me a while to remember that

well we've got discussion going now see. I'm good at getting discussion going, but at the expense of my townieness. It's a problem i have. I believe in newbie 1050 my first post was 'Who's the doctor then' That really got discussion going, but against me XP
anyways, it was a pressure vote at the time. That's the only way I could have been sure we didn't have a lurker. We probably don't, but still :/
gtg for today. Ciao
It alsoapparentlytook him awile to remember that 100% reads are impossible, even though people pointed that out to him way earlier, according to this post heapparentlydidn't notice it. (similiar to how people who pointed out the case on Dazzy were ignored in favor of pushing a faulty case.)
And this one is him saying that he can't scumhunt anymore because the people he thought were scummy replaced out, so he is waiting for somebody else to do all the work for him (and take the blame if the person being pushed turns out to be town.) It also ignores that the slots that he thought were scummy still have players in them, in fact I've been making arguments against Mer already, so he could easily continue pushing the slots he previously found scummy.Twistedspoon wrote:

So you admit to being scum then?Charlie wrote:...
Charlie - Obvscum.

I think the answer lies in me trying to post succinctly added with you thinking too much over a simple matter. In other words, you've spotted some small detail and you've made a mountain out of a molehill.
Thats kind of a patronizing thing to say.
This sounds like an excuse to me, I can't really see how you would be meaning that from your previous statement. It sounded to me - from the beginning - that you were just saying that your two biggest suspects replaced out and you were annoyed by it.Charlie wrote:@ Ghostlin: Understood. Perhaps it would help to know that when I made that comment about those two replacing out, I thought of an early game I played in as SE Cop where both the IC and other SE were Mafia Goons. The chances of this configuration of all experienced players not being VT is slim; that's what I'm thinking about in this game too: the chances of both players who replaced out are Mafia is slim, but its possible. That's it.

So you arn't making comments on anything specific, nor are you scumhunting or even suspicious of anyone?

I noticed that Ghostlin was setting up to get the (now debunked) claimed PR lynched tommorow (today)...But now that the fakeclaim has been revealed as a, well, fakeclaim, I am finding myself less suspicious of him...Oh yeah, and Ghostlin was the first to follow in the "There is definantly a roleblocker" thing that happened yesterday, which could be telling if a roleblocker pops up...
@Everyone: Uh, why does Mer saying there are two scum make him scum? This is a newbie game, it is guaranteed that there are two scum.
This is PR fishing, there is no way mafia would know any better if Mer's claim (which was false) is as a doctor or cop, (unless you are saying you think there is a Dazzy/Mer scumteam with Dazzy being an idiot and saying what his partners fakeclaim would be before he made it fully, which I find highly unlikely. (And that you did not mention at all)) but getting this out in the open DOES get Dazzy implicated as a possible cop for all to see.Ghostlin wrote:@Dazzy: Don't head into NK terrority yet, full of WIFOM. Also, how do you know Mer is the Doctor? He didn't claim as much as I read. That's suspicious you'd say so. Also, Mute's on the right track with his suspicions with Mer.

1. SO SUSPICIOUS. Lying about being a PR is severely scummy.Meransiel wrote:
Quite simple, really. First, no, I did not target anyone. Actually, I false claimed day 1 to limit the format a bit. Also, to protect the real power roles, if any. I'm Vanilla Townie.Ghostlin wrote:@Mer: Full claim. Targets. Now.
Here's the deal: if I died, it means the mafia doesn't have a rolebloker. But I'm alive, so it's obvious they do.
Now, having that there exists a mafia rolebloker, there are 2 possible settings: no PR or 2 PR.
Charlie's posts look like those of a cop to me, and I guess he is so sure I'm scum he didn't even bother to investigate, so I won't ask.
Also,Vote: Ghostlinfor hammering.
2. Nice job just making the "Dazzy could be cop" thing so blatantly in-your-face that nobody could miss it even if they tried. Such a townie move there.
3. Mafia could have let you live you try and get you mislynched even if they don't have a roleblocker, I've seen something similiar happen before.
4. Why are you saying that if he is Cop he didn't investigate you? I don't see any way a townie mindset would come up with this, the only way I see that being true is if you are scum, so you know he didn't investigate you because he isn't pushing you like everyone else.
Stop PR fishing! And that is still an AtE, regardless of whether or not you are town. (The site doesn't have an edit button because if it did people could edit away anything scummy they do.)Meransiel wrote:That's not the point, really. Just, blast this site for not having an edit button.
The point IS, that your likeliness of being cop combined with the fact that there must be a doctor, which has been hardly represented, leads to this conclusion: no power roles, at all.
If you wanna lynch me, fine, but do note that if I die, you guys will enter lylo. This is not Appeal to Emotion, it's the goddamned truth .

Also, you saying that sounds like you're accusing me of playing poorly, basically, as a townie. So, pretty much "I'm lynching you because you bring no benefit to the town." Question, and a lylo does?
We don't know if there is a roleblocker for sure yet, as tclawren says right there.

Nice rolefishing. You do realize there are two setups where there is either 1) a cop, or 2) a doctor, without the existance of the other.The point IS, that your likeliness of being cop combined with the fact that there must be a doctor, which has been hardly represented, leads to this conclusion: no power roles, at all.
3) You voted me because I hammered? Is there anything particularly scummy you find buy my hammer, or do you find hammering scummy?
...
3. You hammered before like, 3 of the town had even commented on the claim, (including me ) right after somebody said "Be really sure before hammering," and you were only "pretty sure he's done scummy stuff."
...At the time I was pretty sure that Ghostlin was scum and I didn't want to be NKed by him and be unable to push him, and if he isn't scum then I would probobly have been NKed anyway, since the scum would want to throw some suspicion on Ghostlin. And I couldn't really see how my post would make any potential doctor any more likely to target me.tclawren wrote:@ King: Why didn't you comment on this during twilight?
So yeah, I didn't want to die.
Though the thing that I thought most scummy about Ghostlin - assuming there was a roleblocker before any evidence of such was there - as I realised over the night, several other players seemed to do it as well (including the dead townie TS) so it is obviously a mistake that town could make as well as scum, without it needing to be a scumslip from a scum that already knowsfor surethat there is roleblocker.
You did notice the post after that which said that I had posted that early accidentally, correct? And that my post was not complete yet?Ghostlin wrote:King: The article comprises of #277, 278, and 280. You can read them if you'd like. I don't have much more to say about the matter. I thought the entire day TS was scum, so I hammered him instead of continuing to debate the same points over and over. The Mer issue didn't seem like it was going to resolve itself until today, which is what we're talking about.
I am sorry that TS flipped town, but frankly, if you're wanting much more remorse out of me for hammering...sorry, no. Someone had to at some point. Town was going nowhere and we were circling the wagons, unless you wanted to lynch the supposed PR Day 1 and deny whatever information we might of gotten from Mer's flip? (He didn't. That's pretty convincing. Now when he's confronted with it, he says he was faking it to draw the NK/RB. That sounds like a scum that doesn't want to commit to a gambit to me.) There was less time and more information when I did it on Page 12, then you threatened to do on Page 6 or 7.
I did want to see what would happen in that gamestate, and I don't think it was a waste. We have a scum claiming PR and going 'wait, I didn't mean to say it was a PR.'
Plus, I'm not convinced you're committed to this accusation and are just trying to pull suspicion off of Mer. Where's your vote?
Post 278 says nothing other than "I can give you an article if you ask for one," which is both not a part of said article and means that the previous post was not part of it as well.
You should have at least not hammered before everyone got a chance to say something about Mer's claim.
You act like kind of a jerk this post. Implying that I didn't read your posts the first time, and saying you arn't sorry that you hammered a townie.
Gotta go do something now, so just:

Right, about KingTwelveSixteen.. as I recall he was a wildcard in my books. But,after seeing his posts D2 I feel that he's protown.After we lynch Meransiel and he (hopefully) flips Mafia, then I'll look more into the possibility of either you or KingTwelveSixteen is his partner.

Looks more like an accusation to me. Oh, and also?Ghostlin wrote:...
...Ghostlin wrote:...
Also, how do you know Mer is the Doctor?He didn't claim as much as I read.That's suspicious you'd say so.
...
My next post was asimple question about information that no one would of known from the information in front of them.
...The cop would think of the other claimed PR as the doctor.That was, you know, the entire point of my accusation. That cop-Dazzy would think of a softclaimed PR as the doctor. Saying it is suspicious is also incorrect, as thescumare not aware of what roles the town has at their disposal, so no scum-hunting could come from it.
Hmph, Mer has been more scummy than you though. Fakeclaiming before death and then saying he is a VT, ugh...
Also you didn't answer my "What the heck are you talking about" question, you know, the one that asks why, if you think I am trying to protect Mer because we are scumbuddies, that you are only going to be looking into me if he turns out to be town.
Oooooh. Yeah, that is really suspicious.Dazzy wrote:Also, King.
The issue is that Mer claimed there were twogoons, not simply scum. This is seen in his ISO 26, as pointed out in Mute's #310
Seemed like something quick I could clear up.
I just want to make it official here: I agree that Mer has to die, he has been far to scummy to let live. I have merely been apprehensive about it because my other big scum read is Ghostlin, and there is no way both of them are scum.
Mute said he would hammer if he got to L-1, so he was essentially at L-1 at that point. The only reason Mer hasn't been hammered yet is that the mod hasn't made an official vote-count that says "L-1" on it.Ghostlin wrote:
You're giving up at L-2?Meransiel wrote:Eh, seems my death is inevitable then. Just...don't let Ghostlin fool you, guys. And, I wish you good luck at lylo!

@King: You said (Im too lazy to quote) "Also, nobody explained why Mer mentioning that there are two scum means that Mer is scum."
He claimed there were two goons in the set-up. However he's also been going on about how there's a cop and doctor. IT's impossible for both to be true. If he isn't scum that fails at being scum he's a VI and is harmful in LYLO which we are now going to enter.

What? I'm not saying that he is the cop, he blatantly said he wasn't. I'm saying that what he said seemed like a cop tell, since what he said follows the mindset of a cop. Also, I already mentioned the possibility of the scum fakeclaiming thing, which if true would mean you were straight up accusing Dazzy of being on a scumteam with Mer. Except you didn't do that at all. Ever. You didn't even mention Dazzy at all, other than in the post you call him out on what appearedGhostlin wrote:...
1) Dazzy's not the cop though. He just admitted he wasn't the Cop. You presumed he was the Cop, when there's been nothing to support it. Secondly, if scum agreed to play off each other fakeclaim in their quicktopic, it could be they agreed that Mer should claim Doc and that was a scum slip. Hence the question. There'd be no reason for a comment like that to be made since the words'keeping my hands clean' could mean anything: he needed a protect target the next day, he needed suspects for an investigation target...it means virtually nothing.
...at the timeto be a cop-tell. IN FACT: I just ISO and Ctrl-F'ed you, literally the only time you mention Dazzy in pages 2-3 other than the role-fishing thing, and right now, even in the previous posts responding to my argument against you, is to say he needs to post more.
I shall make my argument against you abundantly clear. Day 1 you mention several times (3 I believe) that you think Dazzy is town.
Dazzy posted something that looked to me like a cop-tell, but could have possibly, though it is in my opinion unlikely, been a scum-slip of a Dazzy from a Mer/Dazzy scumteam.
You say this is suspicious, and give no reason why. You never mention this possible scumteam, any scummy connections between them, or anything else about this at all, not even in the accusing post,until after I start accusing you and I have already pointed out this unlikely possibility.In fact you specifically said in that post "Also, how do you know Mer is the Doctor?", meaning that at that time you did not think it was a fakeclaim made by Mer with Dazzy as his partner, as you were not suspicious of itat all.
You are also seemingly misreping and not responding to full arguments unless forced to right now.
@underlined: That had not been mentioned at the original point of role-fishing, using it as an argument against you being rolefishing then is therefor faulty.
Oh, and guess what? The role-fishing was successful, now you know that Dazzy isn't a cop.
Underlined is a lie. Mer never made that assertion. Also, Mer's main point appears to be that you are happy with the lynches because you are scum and you know that the people you are lynching are town, not that town should no-lynch or anything like that, which makes this whole post just a bunch of misrep. Which is really weird, since Mer has already been hammered...Ghostlin wrote:
Your last point makes me lol. Here's some mafia wisdom for you:Meransiel wrote:Eh, dead, then. Wonder if you'll manage...let me say a few things.
1. I stated about a dozen times there is a rb, NOT 2 goons.
2. I was not rolefishing. I was stating my whole, absolute opinion about the absence of PRs, because I DON'T think there are any.
3. Ghostlin is so obvscum it hurts. I'm surprised you can't see it. She is constantly sporting the 'it is always good to lynch' and 'no matter if we lynch a townie, it would still benefit us' concepts like there's no tomorrow, because she KNOWS townies will die. Why? Simple, because she is not the one being lynched.
Meh, not that you people would listen or anything...
It is always good to lynch during days in this game. There is absolutely ONE time you No Lynch, and that's MyLo. At no time you should never NOT vote for the scum candidate and town should take it to lynch, even if it's not a candidate you don't agree on.
The maximum benefit of a lynch is information. Information should be and can be analyzed, remarked on and wagons should be remarked on. You do NOT lose the game for your faction if you are dead, even if you're a power role. (Only exceptions to that is not present in a newbie game.) The game is still anyone's up to and including Lylo. Until that last vote is cast, no one has lost the game yet. It is infinitely better to lynch scum, but you should always lynch someone. Frankly, I feel you are scum, like I felt TS was scum during the last Twilight.
So yes,I do laugh at your assertion thatwanting a lynch is scummy,along with the fact you get no information from a townie lynch.Neither of these are true, and in a good 90% of cases, town will always want to lynch.
You know what? This is probobly gonna bite me later on, butI call that Mer's flip will say Vanilla Townie.Ghostlin just seems far to scummy for Mer to be scum, and Mer still seems to be talking like he is town even after being hammered...ShowWin-Loss Ratio

1. Except you only applied pressure at one point and didn't continue to push him, or express in suspicion of him, or evenGhostlin wrote:...
King: I asked him point blank how he would know Mer was the doctor because he used the wordprotect. Nottarget, notinvestigate. Are you trying to twist that into a pretzel for your own purposes, or are you ignoring the assertion that he used that word in reference to Mer when Mer didn't bring it up and we both know it?There's such a thing as scum slips. I was applying pressure to see if he slipped.INEVERasked Dazzy his role, and he volunteered cop on his own. There were a million ways Dazzy could of answered the question without revealing role information, and he didn't reveal said information until three posts laterwithout my prompting.In fact, wasn't it you that said "well, if Dazzy's the cop, he would automatically assume that the other role was the doctor." There's some veiled rolefishing for you.
...
Going 'Hey, how do you know that [piece of information not readily available to town]?' IS NOT ROLEFISHING.That's essentially what I asked, but you know, keep pounding that rhetoric there. It seems to work for you, scum.
Also, as for your second part of that:there's more than one misrep done here. Mer's lied to the town. This makes him scummy. TS acted scummy.With the information we had at the time, no, I've not been sad to be part of either wagon. I'm not certain that Mer's VT at this point, but you sure as hell are sure.mentionhim after the original post, if you actually thought it was a scum-slip you would have, I don't know, actually showed signs of thinking that he was scum?
2. It is rolefishing if one of the only ways you could know the info is if you are the cop.
3. You did not ask, you accused. Odd that you said you were pushing him earlier in the post when in would make you seem less like scum, but at the other points in the post you try to make it sound less notable by saying you were just asking a question.
4. "It's ok for me to misrep because the person I am misrepping is scummy!" Yeah, that is essentially what you are saying here.

1. You can, however, mention that you are suspicious of them being scumpartners, or perhaps mention small, scummy things they have done whilst still voting for the person you find scummiest, instead of just deciding to completly ignore them.Ghostlin wrote:...
1.Misrep AGAIN. Mer had all but fake claimed a PR at this point and said, 'I made it up.' You can't vote the most scummy person and someone you find mildly suspicious (or does something mildly suspicious) at the same time in this game.
2. Doesn't make any sense under a microscope. Yes, I am the Cop, but I don't get role information so I wouldn't know Mer was a doctor from Santa. I could infer it, but why would I when I could counterclaim him? If Dazzy had claimed Cop, I would of known he was lying. At no point did Dazzy claim cop, and admitted in twilight he wasn't. Mer hadn't claimed at this point, so we didn't know what PR he was, so why was Dazzy trying to claim for him?
Yes, I was hoping Mer was scum and picked the wrong role to claim.In a 2 Goons setup, that is entirely possible.
3. I accused Dazzy of having information he didn't have, which headmittedto? This point is blatant tunneling at it's finest.
4. Let me ask you a yes or no question, since you seem to do better with those: You did or did not hint that Dazzy knowing Mer was the Doctor was because Dazzy was the Cop?
2. How about,you are assigning motivations and knowledge of you claiming cop to my postunder a microscopeWHEN YOU HADN'T CLAIMED YOU WERE THE COP YET.Heck, you did thesame thingearlier, trying to say that things that have happened since my post make my reasoning behind the post bad since I wouldobviouslyalready know things that nobody has even mentioned yet! Nice job claiming cop by the way, scum. Thats pretty much the perfect excuse for your role-fishing as it is the only way it wouldn't be scummy.
3. This point of Ghostlin has nothing to do with my point. I said that you were claiming to be pushing him while at the same time phrasing it such that your accusation was as non-noteworthy as possible. Bending your own words around like that to try and make your motivations look as townie as possible instead of just stating which of the two was your actual motivation is scummy.
4. Once again has nothing to do with my point. I didn't "hint" at it, I flat out said it and used it to accuse you and Mer of rolefishing. On top of that it had already been blatantly pointed out by Mer before I first mentioned it. Also once again, you are justifying your own scummyness by saying that others are also scummy, instead of actually defending yourself.

Excuse me? That post was me saying that Ghostlin said that there were only goons when we have no evidence of such, and the only people who would know that would be the scum.

Now then
What makes you so sure that there is one? I can trust Ghost's claim as he's had a town read from me the entire game. Combine ghost's claim of you being guilty and this post just feels really smug to me. I know, that doesn't make sense, but how I read the posts in my head this sounded so smug and sarcastic.
My point in that is I can't help but wonder if this is a slip.

Prove to me you're town and I should dismiss Ghost's claim or eventually I'll change that to a vote.
And then you say that unless I can prove that Ghostlin isn't the cop or that I am town you will vote me, even though it is impossible to do so, and you completly ignore the rest of my case on him. Defending your scumbuddy much?ShowWin-Loss Ratio

1. Wrong. You didn't point it out as a fallacy, you accused Dazzy of being scummy and then procceded to ignore him as scummy (or anything at all actually) for the entire remainder of the day. I have said this before already, and you have ignored it.Ghostlin wrote:King, answer me this. If I and Mer were so scummy you had to point out our blantant rolefishing (and I'll note again, since you're deaf to this, all I did was point to a fallacy (?) in Dazzy's reasoning that he said Mer was the Doctor) why didn't you vote at all Day 2? You tunnelled me for the entire day and didn't cast a single vote on anyone. You almost entirely attempted to keep your hands utterly clean of the Mer lynch while accusing me and not voting.

Two goons? Oh, I wonder how you know there isn't a roleblocker, hmm?since unlike you, I have an innocent on him,there is in fact a RB and he did draw Mer the first day.
As for the 2 Goons assertion, up until Charlie claimed, I didn't know there was a doctor in the setup, I was kinda guessing since I though Mer was scum at the time, he'd fakeclaim my role and I'd counterclaim. What I meant there, misrepping scumtard, is that if there's a setup with two Goons in it, there's a 50% chance that scum chooses a role that is not occupied by another player. (You even ADMIT THIS in #417, so you know EXACTLY WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT.) If you weren't tunnelling so ferciously, you'd know that in your brain of yours or reading the first post that Vel made.
Bluntly, I have nothing to hide: you know as well as I do that you hadno reason for not votingDay 2. Mer was already a scum suspect, if the vote count of Day 1 was to be believed, but you never went back to him. I imagine you were pissed because he claimed a PR and you couldn't get him to L-1 to claim which one we had, so you went to your next obvious suspect, me, making my hammer look scummy and selectively ignoring the reasons why I cast it in the first place. You also ignored the fact that you had threatened, the beginning of Day 1 to cast TS's hammer, and only stopped when I pointed out that looked horrensously scummy, with less reasons than I, so you're entire case on that hammer is scummy and moot. The rest of the posts you've made are so full of WIFOM and rhetoric we might choke on it.
Thing is, you could only get one vote, so you decided not to ride that wagon to keep your hands clean of the Mer mislynch. (Vc's, end of Day 1 and Day 2).
Should I quote your post where you were willing to lynch TS on Page 6 or 7?
...
2. I already gave reasons in Day 2 why I didn't vote. To wit: I wanted to know how close Mer was to being lynched before I voted (accidental hammers stink and I wanted to push you that day as well), and then I just didn't want to hammer him since I was busy accusing you. Oh yeah, and I pretty much only got two posts out before Mer got hammered on Day 2. Thatmight justhave had something to do with me not voting anyone.
3. OH BOY LOOK AT THIS TUNNELING ON GHOSTLIN:

Here's the deal: if I died, it means the mafia doesn't have a rolebloker. But I'm alive, so it's obvious they do.
Now, having that there exists a mafia rolebloker, there are 2 possible settings: no PR or 2 PR.
Charlie's posts look like those of a cop to me, and I guess he is so sure I'm scum he didn't even bother to investigate, so I won't ask.
Also,Vote: Ghostlinfor hammering.
2. Nice job just making the "Dazzy could be cop" thing so blatantly in-your-face that nobody could miss it even if they tried. Such a townie move there.
3. Mafia could have let you live you try and get you mislynched even if they don't have a roleblocker, I've seen something similiar happen before.
4. Why are you saying that if he is Cop he didn't investigate you? I don't see any way a townie mindset would come up with this, the only way I see that being true is if you are scum, so you know he didn't investigate you because he isn't pushing you like everyone else.
Stop PR fishing! And that is still an AtE, regardless of whether or not you are town. (The site doesn't have an edit button because if it did people could edit away anything scummy they do.)Meransiel wrote:That's not the point, really. Just, blast this site for not having an edit button.
The point IS, that your likeliness of being cop combined with the fact that there must be a doctor, which has been hardly represented, leads to this conclusion: no power roles, at all.
If you wanna lynch me, fine, but do note that if I die, you guys will enter lylo. This is not Appeal to Emotion, it's the goddamned truth .

And by the even if it is the truth it's still AtE.
Charlie: I don't understand your cop/cat thing. But that just might because I'm tired.
Also, you saying that sounds like you're accusing me of playing poorly, basically, as a townie. So, pretty much "I'm lynching you because you bring no benefit to the town." Question, and a lylo does?
We don't know if there is a roleblocker for sure yet, as tclawren says right there.
AtEEEeeee
...
4. Wait, I am suddenly confused. Are you saying you were using the "2 goons" thing as something from day 2/1 or are you saying it happened day 3? I'm not really sure which you are claiming.
5. Oh boy, pointing out loudly that you got an innocent on Charlie even though we all know you claimed as much and there was no reason to do so. Except for buddying up to a townie of course.
6. "What I meant there, misrepping scumtard" "If you weren't tunnelling so ferciously, you'd know that in your brain of yours or reading the first post that Vel made." That would hurt my feelings if you weren't scum. *sniff*
Oh, and FYI to all newbies: Now that Ghostlin and me are in a vote-off in LyLo one of ushasto be scum or the scum would have quicklynched and won the game already.Especiallysince he claimed cop with a guilty on me. Me trying to push someone thatisn'tGhostlin in this situation except as his partner would be utterly insane.
7. Hahaha, this paragraph (the fourth) is so incredibly wrong, it gets a list-within-a-list:
a) I totally had a reason for not voting day 2, not the least of which being that I didn't get the chance to post much due to my horrible sleeping/checking mafiascum.net patterns around that time.
b) You are stating this as if you have accused my not voting day-2 of being scummy in previous posts and I weaseled out of it. This is the first mention of such an accusation as far as I can remember.
c) And you have selectively ignored my big reason I called the hammer scummy - it stopped people from being able to comment on Mer's claim - this whole time in favor of saying that TS deserved to be hammered. Whether that is true or not is irrelevant to my accusation of that being a bad hammer as Ineverused that as even apartof my argument against your hammer. In fact the only thing I said on the subject was that you were to unconcerned when he flipped town. So much misrep here.
d)Whenexactly, did this bit about me being angry I couldn't get him to L-1 so I instead pushed you happen at? During day 2? Impossible, Mer had already revealed his fakeclaim by then. Day 1? Also impossible, you ended the day before I had a chance to push you.
e) HA!stopped me from hammering TS? I could haveYouswornthat it was Forseti who did so and that this is just a blatant lie you came up with in order to get townie points.
f) So why don't you point out which points of mine are just WIFOM and rhetoric? And why havn't you mentioned it before? I don't recall you ever doing so. Ctrl+F and his good buddy ISO agree with me almost completly. The only other place you accuse me of rhetoric involves you using it to once again refuse to say something about my actual Re:Dazzy-cop-fishing accusation.
8. The reason the vote-count analysis of day 1 says I was still on the Mer wagon is because you hammered early. I have already said earlier in this post why I didn't get on the Mer wagon early day 2 as well, I didn't want to hammer him yet do that I could push you more.
9. I have thought of Dazzy as obvtown since day 1.ShowWin-Loss Ratio

Wow, that is a lot of misrep there.
Ok, finially giving the reason you dropped it, because you wanted to push Mer and I was attacking you, got it. Considering how long it took you to say that though...
Who am I hedging my bets on? The only scumteam that makes sense to me is the Ghostlin-Mute one andmaybeGhostlin-Dazzy but that one is very unlikely. I had thought I made it obvious already, what with me saying that exact thing earlier.
There were in fact other reasons besides "I didn't get much chance to post" that I listed. Specifically I gave two reasons. ONE FOR EACH POST I MADE THAT I DIDN'T VOTE.
Ah, so it was something scummyIdid that made you think there were two goons then? Even though you say that it would have been suboptimal for me to do so and you have never brought it up before now?
Crazy misrep. Let me quote what I said: "5. Oh boy, pointing out loudly that you got an innocent on Charlie even though we all know you claimed as much and there was no reason to do so.Except for buddying up to a townie of course."
What part of that makes it seem like I think Charlie is scum? Answer: None of it.
You realise that the only way that is WIFOM is if we are both scum right? And how stupid it is for you to counter my counter against your "tunneling" accusation with that?
I never said I wanted him to fullclaim. I did not suggest that at all. I said I wanted to comment on his claim before the day ended. Nothing in what I have ever said about that topic has ever had to do with him making a fullclaim. It only had to do with being completely unable to even comment on the softclaim.
I was pissed day 2 about us lynching Mer the day before? We lynched TS day 1.
I wasn't going to immediatly lynch Mer in order to push you Ghostlin. Oh, FYI? I would have still lynched Mer, people who fakeclaim like that are just to scummy and unpredictable to let live in LyLo, regardless of how scummy other players are being. I mentioned this day 2.
Yo Ghostlin you still havn't answered this question from way back when: During day 2 you said you suspected me of trying to defend Mer as his scumpartner, but then said that you would only push me if he turned up town. Why did you say this?ShowWin-Loss Ratio

You know what, I'm tired of you dancing around my points. This right here is just lies. I did not misrep nor WIFOM, you said I was hedging my bets when I BLATANTLY had said earlier that I could only see two scum-teams and one was very unlikely. I asked what you were talking about when you said I was hedging my bets and now you are UTTERLY ignoring that in order to say that my choices for possible scumteams are bad. Strawman argument.Ghostlin wrote:...
1) WIFOM/Misrep. This post makes the assumption that scum always buddy each other in order to cloud the truth since I've pretty much for 90% of this game have had Mute in my town column. It convientently ignores the convential wisdom of bussing. Also, if I'm buddying Mute because he's my scumbuddy, why didn't I clear him instead of Charlie? While both Mute and Charlie can be town, if you use the correllary that I'm setting townies up by buddying them, then Dazzy must be my partner, right? So why, if your town, do you find it unlikely?
Let me distill the question down simplier: If I'm buddying Mute, and I'm buddying Charlie, how is Mutebuddy different than Charliebuddy?
Let me be blunt: Your premise is flawed, or you're leaving holes in it to adjust to whomever you else you might be able to railroad for being my buddy.
Oh, and Mutebuddy is different then Charliebuddy in that I have a neutral-town read on Charlie just by himself and a null read on Mute by himself, ON TOP OF THAT your posts buddying Charlie seem to me to be BUDDYING, and not distancing or any of whatever it is you are saying they are.
Oh, and I never said you were buddying Mute.
How nice, using teaching newbies as an excuse to strawman away the original argument instead of answering. To remind everyone here who doesn't want to look back through our argument for it: Ghostlin claimed I wasGhostlin wrote: 2) I know you're a scumtard, you know you're a scumtard trying to accuse me of being a scumtard. However, from a third party perspective, this is WIFOMsque. So advising the new players that is 100% true is misleading. Fact is, I suspect you already know that.tunnelinghim. Despite the fact that he claimed cop-with-a-guilty on me in LyLo so he is pretty much guaranteed scum. Seriously, that is ridiculous. Please note that this contradicts his current case against me of hedging my bets, which is as equally ridiculous as the tunneling case was.
I would have said that we shouldn't lynch the claimed PR yet, and then ALL OF THE TOWN would know my position on it and you would be unable to say I was "angry" that I couldn't get him to L-1 or SOMETHING like that anymore. IN SHORT: You deprived the town of information about how some people would react to Mer's claim and now you are using that lack of information to make a false accusation towards me which cannot be proved or shown one way or the other due to your hammer. That is what I have to say on the matter.Ghostlin wrote: 3) Honestly, what would have you said that either wasn't already said in the thread: should we hang him, or let him go to Night? I didn't think letting scum get their hands on another claim (which usually happens as L-1) was wise, even if it was countered, and in this particular case, it would of been disasterous if Mer took his gambit all the way. Explain to me what ninja insight you would of had in the claim that wouldn't have been forcing the claim. Particularly since I was waiting for a more detailed claim (role, nightaction, blocked or not) or Mer's body.
I didn't accuse Charlie of being scum, I asked him what the heck he was talking about since his post made no sense. I thought you were scummy and Mer was scummy so I pushed you both, but I focused on you because nobody else was pushing you at all. I didn't leave a FoS or HoS, I merely asked the mod for a votecount to see if me voting Mer would lynch him, which anyone can go back and check,Ghostlin wrote: 4) You didn't vote like it. You didn't even leave an FoS or HoS that I remember Day 2. (Just checked. You didn't.) You just sorta accused Charlie, Mer and I of being scum without DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT. Also, your other reasons kinda read 'well, I thought Mer was scum, but I thought you were scum, so I applied pressure to you.' Which, when you distill it down was passive-aggressive waffling without acutally taking a stand either way. You also had a backburner against Charlie, who you now claim is town.
...thus heavily implying I would vote him if it didn't,and then I specifically did not vote him because that would have lynched him. Not like it mattered the second time, I got ninja'd by Mute hammering.
Why would me attacking you when Mer was being pushed be scummy? The only reason I can think of is that you thought we were scum-buddies and I was protecting him, which is patently ridiculous from the whole "I will be suspicious of you if he flips town" thing.Ghostlin wrote:
If you're refering to this, this is acutally; I think you're scummy for attacking me when Mer picked up steam, however; I'm going to open up myself to the possibilty you're town.

...
King will probably get a second look if Mer flips town, but his attack against me almost seemed timed for when Mer picked up suspicion.

Unfortunately, it didn't match my expectations.
Incorrect, I stopped the argument about the cop-claim thing last post with "Ok, finially giving the reason you dropped it, because you wanted to push Mer and I was attacking you, got it. Considering how long it took you to say that though..." towards your reasoning for not saying anything else about Dazzy being scummy, which was kind of the whole thing that made me think it was role-fishing in the first place.Ghostlin wrote:...
Since you go on and on and on about me fishing about the Cop, I'd thought I'd dredge this up. I acutally never mentioned Dazzy-cop in my inital accusation/question...you did, posts later. I was just trying to sift if it was a scumslip (Dazzy-Mer were going to claim Doctor for Mer backstage at the time and Mer ended up claiming VT because the opportunity was ruined) since there's no reason for him to know that. But nice try to make it seem like you weren't rolefishing: 'Well, if Dazzy's the Cop, he'd guess Mer was the Doctor...' (Translation: can I get both PRs to admit it, or find out what the other PR is through a soft or counter claim?)
I would like to point out to the observers in the audience that I have been making this point since day 2 and Ghostlin is only just now actually giving a straight answer. I wonder why he couldn't have just been honest and answered the accusation in the first place? (Its because he's scum and he needed time to come up with a reason why what he did wasn't scummy)
Also, as I have mentioned before now, I previously believed that Mer had pointed out the Dazzy-as-cop thing before me, and thus it was not damaging to the town to bring up him as a possible PR for a role-fishing accusation since it was already out there. I re-read and apparantly I read "Charlie" as "Dazzy" from one of Mer's posts, and nobody ever corrected me. That is why I was fine with saying it, and anybody who believes otherwise is perfectly welcome to go look back at the 3 or so posts where I mentioned that I thought Mer had brought it up before.
@Everyone who isn't Ghostlin:Please note that Ghostlin has been ignoring, misrepping, strawmanning and just generally trying to avoid giving a straight answer to my points this whole argument. ALSO YOU GUYS NEED TO POST MORE. Just because me and Ghostlin are having a big argument doesn't mean you guys can't interject with your own questions/opinions on the issue.ShowWin-Loss Ratio

Nope, I never did post a scum-list. And I have felt Dazzy was pretty solidly town from the start, it is Charlie who is the null-town read.Ghostlin wrote:1) You still don't explain why Mute, someone I've called a town read since Day 1 is different than Charlie, someone I've just recently"buddied" up to.
No, you didn't actually say I was buddying Mute, you just used my protown tell for most of the game for Mute to accuse him as my scumbuddy. You've still not adequately explained why Charlie couldn't be buddies with me. Or Dazzy. In fact, you accept Charlie being town exactly at face value. You accept his innocence exactly without doubt, as if you know he's town without the investigation.Oh, and Mutebuddy is different then Charliebuddy in that I have a neutral-town read on Charlie just by himself and a null read on Mute by himself, ON TOP OF THAT your posts buddying Charlie seem to me to be BUDDYING, and not distancing or any of whatever it is you are saying they are.
Oh, and I never said you were buddying Mute.
You dance around the specifics, keeping to the periphery as much as possible--you don't specifically say why Mute is a desirable option over Dazzy, or why you accept Charlie's claim 100% when you don't have an investigation or anything remotely resembling that. You just cite 'well, Mute's a null over Dazzy who's null to town.' WHY ARE YOU GETTING THOSE READINGS?
Oh, and where are these tells? I read your ISO. You've not posted a single scum list I could find. NOT ONE.
And I think that Charlie scum-team with you is incorrect because of your buddying towards him, as I have mentioned several times already if you cared to read my posts. I also said that I thought Dazzy was town from the start as well, and that is why I think a Ghostlin-Dazzy scumteam is unlikely. In case you don't care to count, that leaves, by process-of-elimination, Mute, who I have had a crazy null read on this whole game, as the only possible scum-partner left.
Still using how you apparently "disagree" with my scum-team options to ignore answering the question. To repeat: How would my scum-team opinions being incorrect mean I am hedging my bets?Especiallysince this is LyLo andif you are town like you claim,the game would end with you being lynched, without usevergetting the chance to act on these scumbuddy accusations. This reads to me more you desperately trying to prevent your partner Mute from getting lynched tommorow if you fail to lynch me by attacking my scum-team reads.
Everything that could have been said about Mer's fakeclaim had already been said, and it was pretty clear he was going to die no matter what I did. It seemed like a complete waste of time to push him just to say the same thing that others had already said. Wait, I mean say the same thing thatGhostlin wrote: 2 and 3). You said you found Mersianel scummy and then focused on ME pretty exclusively because no one else was. That's what I meant by tunneling. You can't focus on someone and not focus on someone. And for all that focusing, you couldn't still vomit up a vote. It's not hard to post FoS. Or scum lists. In fact, when it was mentioned last Day by tclawren why you didn't accuse me at twilight when you posted your reasons, you posted the WIFOMY excuse that scum would of killed you if you had attacked me that twilight. AtE, specifically, AtF, and scummy AtF since I had no interaction with Foresti at all, and Tclawren didn't accuse me of anything.Ihad already said. Since I had already said my part about Mer being scummy in my first post that day. (I am counting my incorrectly posted post and the post saying that it was incorrectly posted as one post)
The voting thing has already been covered. And I would have been voting Mer, not you then. Like has already been covered. Repeatedly.
And I've already mentioned several times that Mer was far to ridiculously scummy and bad with that fakeclaim to let live through to LyLo, even if you were so much more scummy then him if you disregarded that claim.
I don't know what AtF means.
It was not a redaction, to quote my original accusation of rolefishing:Ghostlin wrote: 4) You brought up the Cop thing. You've been passive aggressively been role fishing and yourlast few sentences are a complete retraction of what you've said previous about me fishing for Copafter loading me with bear and trying to MISREP ME about it. Also, does anyone besides me find it slightly suspicious that Mer's been attributed with calling Dazzy the Cop and claiming himself as doctor when either of these aren't true (as in that's not what he said at all, irregardless of the flip)?
Your note at the end is AtE. I've answered your questions. There's one last question I want to answer, and then I'll relinquish the floor, but I'm trying to keep these posts bite size and easy to swallow.
"This is PR fishing, there is no way mafia would know any better if Mer's claim (which was false) is as a doctor or cop, (unless you are saying you think there is a Dazzy/Mer scumteam with Dazzy being an idiot and saying what his partners fakeclaim would be before he made it fully, which I find highly unlikely. (And that you did not mention at all)) but getting this out in the open DOES get Dazzy implicated as a possible cop for all to see."
Right from the start all you had to do was say why you didn't mention it at all and it wouldn't have been very suspicious. You did not do so until more than 6 posts worth of arguing later, which isverysuspicious.
Two seperate people thinking that Mer said something he didn't doesn't seem that notable to me, unless you don't believe in coincidences or something.
You still havn't answered why my scum-buddy reads being incorrect (in your opinion ) has to do with me being...what was it? Spreading around my options or whatever. Also, you didn't actually mention why you hadn't said anything about Dazzy being scummy until way way way into the argument.
Theres two examples for ya.
Yeah, I called the flip. After Mer had been hammered and was still posting as if he was a townie.Ghostlin wrote:...
By accusing me, you get towncred in a Day Three 'I told you so.' By timing your accusation when you did, you could easily cite this, and go 'see, I told you Mer was town.

This is probobly gonna bite me later on, but I call thatMer's flip will say Vanilla Townie. Ghostlin just seems far to scummy for Mer to be scum,and Mer still seems to be talking like he is town even after being hammered...
Oh, and I fully expect you to say I misrepped that quote. Fact is, you called the flip, a lot safer thing to do as scum than town.
I also never said "I told you so" in regards to Mer. That would have been ridiculously hypocritical since I agreed that he had to die.ShowWin-Loss Ratio

Gotcha.Dazzy wrote:...
King, instead of arguing back and forth, make a summary of your case on Ghostlin, in terms of the game as a whole.
...
This is what I got as a case from re-reading the thread, starting at the page of the day-1 hammering.
---------------
1)Day 1 Ghostlin hammers TS before several players (including me) had a chance to comment on Mer's softclaim, thus denying the town potentially useful information. He was also only "pretty sure he's acting scummish" when two posts previous tclawren had stated that nobody should hammer unless they are sure TS needs to die.
Shortly after this he claims that he totally had good reasons for hammering him and scummy stuff TS had did, thus contradicting his pretty sure-ness, since that indecisicive hammering was scummy and he didn't want anybody to be able to call him on it.
1a)His quickhammer directly caused Forseti to be unable to give any comments on a large number of things day-1, as he died during the night after the day ended to soon.
1b)Day 3 Ghostlin makes the claim that I was mad that I didn't get to get the claimed PR to L-1 day 1 and that I was scummy and blah blah blah. If Ghostlin himself hadn't hammered early everyone would know that I wouldn't have attempted to push Mer to L-1 to get a fullclaim day 1, but due to his quickhammer there is no way of knowing for sure. Thus, not only practical evidence of how this hurt the town, but evidence of him using his own quickhammer to push others on things that cannot be proven.
2)During twilight of day-1 Ghostlin makes the claim that scum would never leave a claimed PR alive in this setup unless they had a roleblocker, which is false. He states this "fact" several more times over the course of the game, even though other people have stated several times that this is wrong, since the scum could let the claimed PR live in order to get a mislynch on him.
This is relevant because he has claimed cop and Charlie says he is the doctor, since Ghostlin is lying it is a two-goons-no-roleblocker set-up, and thus the scum had to have left Mer the claimed PR alive in order to attempt a mislynch on him, something Ghostlin has tried his hardest to get everyone to think impossible.
On day 3 he also made a scum-slip of saying that there are only goons on the scum-team and then tried to blow it off by saying that it was something scummy I did that made him think that was true, even though from his own arguments there wouldhaveto be a role-blocker, since Mer wasn't NKed after soft-claiming.
NOTE: Mute the scum-buddy backed him up on the "Scum would kill PR unless role-blocker" thing, at least until Ghostlin started getting heat for it and Mute jumped off.
2a)Mer was also somehow convinced of this "truth" of scum-night-killing-PR-ness-thing. Ghostlin thenpointed outthat there could be no role-blocker, indirect contradictionto his other posts on the matter.
3)Twilight day-1 Ghostlin starts laying the groundwork to lynch the claimed PR day 2, mostly using the incorrect NK speculation mentioned in point 2.
And then day-2 he continues laying groundwork for a lynch of the claimed PR up until Mer reveals it as a fakeclaim.
4)Day 2 the whole PR fishing thing happens. To wit: Ghostlin says that it is suspicious that Dazzy would say that Mer is the doctor, I say this is role-fishing because the cop would think of the claimed PR as the doctor and the only way it would be suspicious is with a Mer-Dazzy scumteam which Ghostlin never mentioned, Ghostlin proceeds to try and weasel his way out of answering the accusation by saying he was just asking Dazzy why he had information nobody would have, then he tries misrepping, then he tries to get out of it by saying that he thought it was suspicious due to Dazzy-Mer scumteam, even though I mentioned in thevery first postI made on the rolefishing matter that the only way it wasn't role-fishing would be if he thought there was a Dazzy-Mer scumteam, but that he had never mentioned it.
NOTE: He also switched between saying he was just "asking a question" all downplayed like and saying that he was making an accusation during his attempts to avoid explaining his role-fishing, using whichever one would make him look most town at the time instead of just sticking to whichever was true. (Hint: Neither was true because he was role-fishing)
Thus, I call him out on it as he never mentioned it ever. He merely tries to weasel his way out of giving a reason some more until he FINIALLY gives a reason why he didn't push/show suspicion of a Mer/Dazzy scumteam, after like 5 pages and an entire day worth of him trying to avoid answering the question.
NOTE: The reason heeventuallygave for not mentioning/pushing a Dazzy-Mer scumteam was that he wanted to focus on Mer and me instead of Dazzy.
5)Ghostlin has alternated between misrepping point 1 and just ignoring it entirely.
6)Day 2 Ghostlin mentions twice that it is suspicious that the timing of my case directly coincides with the push on Mer, then says he will only push if Mer turns up town. I call him out on this.
Ghostlin then proceeds to do the usual stuff he has done during this whole argument with me, ignore the accusation, repeat what happened instead of anwering, misrepping, ect.
He eventually mentions that the reason he said it was that he thought I was scum trying to get townie points for not pushing someone I knew would pop up town, which is false as I plainly said day-2 that Mer had to die. I also pushed him some.
7)Ghostlin misrepped and strawmanned (notice a pattern?) Mer's arguments against him during twilight, after Mer had been hammered.
This includes Mer's question/accusation of "specific things you learn if I flip town," something Ghostlin has still not given, though hedidpost a nearly incomprehensable wagon-analysis post (the thing he said they would be able to use to learn stuff if Mer was town),eventually, after a period of completly ignoring my reminders and the original accusation.
7a)Ghostlin has said that Mer was misrepping in order to excuse his own misrepping of Mer. Basically he said "Its ok for me to misrep him because he misrepped me!" Excusing bad behavior with more bad behavior is a faulty argument.
8)After (fake-)claiming cop he tries the laughable strategy of replying to one of my accusational posts towards him as if I already knew he was going to fakeclaim the cop, even though there was no way I could have known that.
8a)This post is also the one where he says I am "tunneling" when I pointed out his changing between "question asking" and "accusing" with regards to Dazzy-PR-fishing. He does not actually explain why this is tunneling or give an explanation for the thing I accuse him of, instead he just repeats (again) what everyone knows already happened.
8b)This post he ALSO does some strawmanning so ridiculous that I don't think it even qualifies as strawmanning anymore, changing the point-by-point of this:
ToKingTwelveSixteen wrote:
"It's ok for me to misrep because the person I am misrepping is scummy!" Yeah, that is essentially what you are saying here.Ghostlin wrote:there's more than one misrep done here. Mer's lied to the town. This makes him scummy. TS acted scummy.this:
Which has literally nothing to do with the point being discussed.Ghostlin wrote:4. Let me ask you a yes or no question, since you seem to do better with those: You did or did not hint that Dazzy knowing Mer was the Doctor was because Dazzy was the Cop?
9)Ghostlin accuses me of being scum for not voting for anyone day-2 when I thought of Mer and him as being scummy. I respond with the reasons of: Only got two posts 'cause day-2 was to short, the first post I wanted to know how close Mer was to death so I didn't accidentally quick-lynch him, and the second I wanted to push Ghostlin some more before the day ended so I didn't vote Mer yet.
Ghostlin proceeds to completly ignore the two reasons given for individual posts, and instead strawmans into saying that the first point is ridiculous as I clearly had two long posts day-2. I even point out later on that the first reason only counts to explain why I only had two chances to vote, and that the other two reasons are the actual reasons I didn't vote at those times.
Ghostlin ignored this and continued to push me.
10)Ghostlin said that he stopped me from hammering TS day-1. It was Forseti that did so. Blatant lie to get townie points.
11)Ghostlin buddied up to Charlie by pointlessly repeating that he got an innocent on him when it wasn't relevant and everybody already knew he had claimed that. He CRAZY misrepped/strawmaned me when I pointed this out by acting like I had said that Charlie's claim was false.
12)Ghostlin has claimed that I am "hedging my bets" about who his partner is, despite the fact that I had made a blatant and obvious mention of who I believed were possibilities for his partner already, way back at the start of the day. (Mute and Dazzy, but mostly Mute.) He then tried to strawman the argument onto just saying that my opinions on who could be his partner were bad and that meant I was hedging my bets, but it didn't take because not only is that stupid but I do in fact have reasons for thinking his scumbuddy is Mute.
13)Ghostlin tried to use explaining to the newbies that there was a possibility that both people voting for each other in LyLo could be scum in order to avoid giving an explaination on how his "tunneling" claim made any sense.
Even this "explaining to newbies" reason fails all on it's own though. I said that it was guarenteed that one of us had to be scum. Both of us being scum means one of us is scum.

Hooray! You agree with me.Charlie wrote:Look like Mute stands out from the rest. He was on most of the leading wagons.
Dazzy's on the other end of the spectrum, he seems to be not voting more than the rest.
KingTwelveSixteen's voting pattern is not scummy... he never participated in the lynching wagons. I don't believe Mafia would be THAT passive.
I believe both Mafia were on the TS lynching wagon @ 1.10.
Ditto the Meransiel wagon @ 2.1
These 2 lynching wagons carry the most information out of all the VCAs.
If I have to call it, I'd say we're in 2 goon 1 doc setup and the Mafia are Ghostlin & Mute. Both participated in both mislynches.
That's my 2 cents.
Thoughts?
And to respond to some of Ghostlin's more recent arguments:
1. I never said that Ghostlin giving a town read to Charlie was what I was talking about when I said he was buddying him, that is ridiculous. He is buddying him in other ways: Repeating unnecessarily (and at ackward times) that he got a "town" result on his Charlie "investigation", and this whole thing right here are examples of what I am talking about:
Explaining to Charlie, theGhostlin wrote:...
Charlie, if this flips RB, protect me tonight and I'll investigate either Mute or Dazzy. (I'll flip a coin.) I'll know for sure, because scum will have to kill one of us, they must. This'll lock the game. You ARE innocent. You are a confirmed innocent, so I can trust you. In fact, you're the only one in town I can trust 100% right now. Doesn't mean you're right, but I will NOT support a Charlie lynch AT ALL tonight, and you'll have to lynch me for the lose first.IC, what the correct and obvious course of action would be if I died and fliped roleblocker. (Hint to newbies: as doc protect the cop. I mean seriously why wouldanyoneneed that explained to them?) Then that "you are the only one I can trust" thing there? Wow.
Also pointlessly mentioning that he will not support a Charlie lynch, which should be obvious by how he, you know, said he got a town investigation on him. And how it is LyLo. It would be suicidal for a cop to help lynch somebody he has gotten a town investigation on (obligatory mention of insanity/redirector/godfather ect. ect. but this is a newbie game so those don't exist) in LyLo. Also nobody was pushing, being suspicious of, or mentioning that Charlie was suspicious at any way at the time of this post.
2. The point about me being too cautious ofto be town can be easily seen through if you think about it a bit.being nightkilled
...
(Hint: scum generally don't have to worry about their own team NKing them.)
3. The cop who sees somebody else soft-claim a PR in a newbie game would assume that the guy who claimed is either a doc or scum, and generally will not instantly assume that the claimed PR is scum, since they could just as easily be doc.
4. And what exactly does that coincidense about people thinking Mer said stuff he didn't mean then? All you say is that some random thing means some other, unspecified thing.
5. Why would I need to "confirm" that my reads are in order of Dazzy, Charlie, Mute, Ghostlin? Anybody who read my posts could tell you that.
6. Point one on Ghostlins third-person type argument against me is him subtly justify scummy things he's done by pointing at scummy things other people have done. It is also acomplete lie, Forseti merely asked me to let TS live longer so that other people could comment on what had happened, and then I agreed that other people should get the oppurtunity to comment on it. He did not accuse me of anything, nor did he say it was scummy of me to hammer TS (that came later, with Ghostlin's post on the matter). This is thesecondlie Ghostlin has told about what happened with my almost-hammer day 1, which is really making me wonder why that particular part of the game is so important as to lie about it repeatedly.
7. Ghostlin's claim that I was using the "to dumb to be scum" argument is false. As I have previously (and repeatedly) stated, I have had a town read on Charlie since day 1. That is why I found it highly unlikely that he was scum, not because of the part about him being an idiot scum. (though that did make me think of it as even less probable.)
8. What is wrong with using POE to find scum? There are only 3 possibilities for Ghostlin's scum-partner,notusing POE in some way would be stupid.Especiallysince I have a town-type read on 2 of them.
9. Apparently not-voting for over 2(!!) whole posts is now an indication of being scum. Even when you give reasons behind why you didn't vote in those posts.
10. Apparently changing reads from what they were at the start of day-1 is scummy now as well. (Note: I had actually change my read to a nully-townish type read by the point where I defended Forseti's argument against Charlie. Just thought I'd mention that.)
11. Point 4 in his big argument thing is putting words into my mouth. I only started mentioning Mute-scum day-3 because I found him with POE. Before then he was null.
-------------
Actually, I just wasn't on any of the lynch wagons because it would have killed (or directly resulted in the death of, in the case of Mer) them and I didn't want to end the day yet at the times of not-voting. I totally would have been on both their wagons if I had switched to them earlier, when voting for them wouldn't so instantly end the day.ShowWin-Loss Ratio

I shall now point out some stuff.
I was unaware that cops needed to state repeatedly and at times that it isn't relevant who their investigations say are town. I was under the impression they only needed to mention it once and then everyone would know they the result.Ghostlin wrote:1) Yeah: you know, because I did that before I revealed the investigations that in my mind cleared Charlie...oh, wait...it was AFTER.
This is an elaborate smokescreen: confirmed innocents are trusted above unconfirmed townsfolk. It's sort of a duh. If you're basing your case over me stating the obvious, that's not scummy. Neither is stating someone's cleared and treating their claim as sincere if you acutally are the Cop. That's good business.
Haha, nice. What a complete turnaround. Ghostlin started this little thread of argument by including that I was too concerned with self-preservation as part of his "third-party case." The post Ghostlin is claiming I am WIFOMing with is me saying that his accusation of scummyness with regards to self-preservation from NKs makes no sense.Ghostlin wrote: 2) Yawn. WIFOM. Scum could very easily fake that. That's a load, and you know it.
That seems like I phrased it wrong. To wit: Ghostlin uses me being too concerned with self-preservation as a reason I am scummy, then lists some things that only show me wanting to be preserved from NKs. I reply that this makes no sense as scum don't need to be afraid of their own NK. Now Ghostlin says that I am using WIFOM to declare myself town because scum wouldn't be afraid of NKs. Even though my statement was directly in response to his argument being bad, and not that my wanting to survive from NKs means that I am town. It had nothing to do with the second at all.
A wise player would role-fish the claimed PR?Ghostlin wrote: 3) They're not going to autoassume doc either. Which is essentally what you said, King. A wise player would wait for a claim, even provoke it.
Ok then.Ghostlin wrote: 4) It creates a link (not a strong one) between you and Dazzy that should be noticed and commented on.
...
Well what comments ya got? 'Cause I got nothing.
Oh ok, so because I didn't state my reads previous to LyLo that means that all the times I mentioned them in LyLo never happened. Makes perfect sense.Ghostlin wrote: 5) Um...no, we can't necessarly. Did you not read your own posts Day 1 or Day 2? You only start mentioning this business, when under the gun, NOW IN LYLO.
I have stated my reads over and over again, Dazzy is town, Charlie was neutral-town until Ghostlin started buddying him, Mute is null by himself but scum with Ghostlin, and Ghostlin is scum.
My posts numbered 25, 26, 27, 31, 32, andGhostlin wrote: 6) Bullshit. You were going to hammer if your posts are going to be believed. If you were serious about Foresti's letting him live for town's comments, you should have voted when we were done. You didn't vote TS at all that day. Your votes don't indicate any insistence of. You let off pressure.especially34 are all from day 1, all from after the hammering thing, and all push TS.
Due to replacements nobody made many comments on TS at all for awile.
...Ghostlin wrote: 7) That last point is my point. You found it less likely (I think you used the phrase 'greatly unlikely') in an argument we had about the validity of information a townie shouldn't have.
...
I was unaware that your point was that I slightly changed my take on a situation because scum would have to be really dumb to do something. I thought it was more you saying I was making a "too scummy to be scum" argument, even though I didn't make one.
Ok, yes, I get it. Post town-reads and crap next time.Ghostlin wrote: 8) ...Which you've only mentioned on Day 3. We've not had any town reads before Day 3 from you. God, I sound like a broken record.
9) You texted walled, had two obvious suspects, and didn't EVEN FOS one. The most you did to TS was a Double HoS. There's NO point in town being that passive.
10-11) It's scummy if you don't ever let us know any reprision of your reads until endgame. You've been the only so...stingy with those. You could say anything about anyone now. You could say code from the pyramids proves that Dazzy is my supersecret scumpartner....we don't have a read on Dazzy, and the only read we have on Charlie is esssntally you thought he was scum Day 1. We'd have to utterly take your word for it on the reads, King. NO TOWNIE DOES THAT. Usually, they'll mention town reads, even in passing.
Why the heck did you leave this unmentioned till LyLo if it was so obviously scummy and anti-town anyway? Should have just asked me for my reads instead.
Or I could have, you know,Ghostlin wrote: Try something more covnincing. Seriously, the worst you would of done at L-2 would of put him at L-1, which if you were convinced he was guilty, like you SAY YOU WERE, you should of applied the pressure back so we could reexamine the wagon.
Guys: this is the scummiest defense ever: "I didn't vote the lynch wagons because I didn't want to put them close to hammer, but I totally would of voted them if there was no danger of that." How do you think we win the game through lynches, anyway? If all of town voted like that, NONE of us would get anywhere.nottunneled onto TS and applied pressure to some other people as well while I was waiting for people to comment on TS. Like I did.
Same with the Mer wagon except replace "other people" with "Ghostlin" and "waiting for people to comment" with "I want to push him because he is scummy."ShowWin-Loss Ratio
