We really don't believe in reading people via bop at all. Categorically.
I was looking for some stuff in this game which I should townread. Sorry if this felt like a breakthrough but I'm not sure how to see anything AI in the BoP argument. It might be slightly towny because of the disconnect maybe? But then scum who are caught for the wrong reason often react the same way. So I'm quite net null on it
Basically, the idea that "because Player X isn't proficient, they must be scum". For example, saying "because Nancy mislynched scum and had bad reads she must be scum". It's a nonsensical argument.
Here URAP2 is suggesting I'm BoPing him because I'm saying "because you didn't have the same read as us on a lurker post, you must be scum".

@Mod: Can we take the point quoted here to indicate that there will be a TOWN-ALIGNED role that is similar to a Vigilante this game?

yes, both? I've got a lot of town reads and next to zero scum reads so my thinking is in poe mode if that makes sense.In post 843, ProFlavor wrote:

Well, that of course is fine and I’m not referring to that. I’m referring to the obscene and arrogant behaviour which involves actually attempting to try to dictate to another member on this site, which games they are allowed to play, which is entirely different, obviously.In post 846, ProFlavor wrote:to be fair when I blacklist people I don't tell them, I just don't join games they are in - like I already saw a post from nancy about how blacklists should be banned and I fully agree - however, if I think someone is a numpty who cant behave I will avoid them and because I'm old and boring I just keep it to myself.
not directed at you as I'm not blacklisting you but I just wanted to add my comments on this as it's like a really easy problem to solve - be civil and if you cant shut up and don't playShowHydra of Aristophanes and Nancy Drew 39

I am not voting Nico for lurking but for a likely scummy post she made about being very unhappy with something, apparently game related - very likely referencing her role pm and when I requested further clarification on this, she failed to respond to it.In post 852, ProFlavor wrote:if we are lynching nico for lurking why don't we get Vars to vig it

That wasn’t how I interpreted it. “Why again”, why again WHAT exactly?

I had a thought that I was cop in overkill 2 - claimed on day 1 and last 5 days somehowIn post 751, Almost Chara wrote:@Michael Scott: You answered your own question. Any experienced player wouldn't claim Vig knowing there IS a Vig that would shoot them, except if they were @L-1 maybe (and it still would have been a bad move), and Varsoon wasn't even under pressure.
so given Varsoon likes a fake claim and has meta for it would I believe scum!varsoon would claim a role (at least a variant of said role) that we know exists and therefore risk either a cc or worse yet, would shoot him just to try and get the town cred of IC status.
that means you are gambling on 1 of 2 things being true to keep you going:
1. the real vig going "oh varsoon just a fake claim he does that for lulz I wont shoot him"
2. the existence of a protection & said protection actually believes the claim.
then another issue - the shot failed and has 'expired' for today somehow - This implies another go tomorrow- on the fact that Varsoon was confident enough today, you can't bottle it tomorrow and say you're not sure so holstering, you'd surely get lynched tomorrow
All these options severely reduce the lifespan of varsoon regardless of any wifom - my gut is telling me to not believe the claim but the logic is saying there is no advantage to scum of claiming

Yeah in Overkill 2, the way he walked back that claim. was super sketchy, so I really can’t see any scum motivation to stick with the claim, so yeah, I agree, probably town.
I also agree getting a town consensus first, would be nice. If the shot had been successful and Stw had flipped town, how would that have helped us?ShowHydra of Aristophanes and Nancy Drew 39
