In post 172, Lying Scum wrote:This is an ETL post that has not been approved by Belisarius. I am V/LA on the weekends, always and catching up today. From ISOs, here's what I've got (half done):
1.Bert: Ok so, ignoring the doublevoter claim, I really, really, really think this is town Bert. In Dark Age of the Law, he was kind of all over the place (I was one of his scum partners as part of the Drunken Lies hydra). I think the thing I like the most here is his attention on KA and the way he went about it. I got the impression that he was actually interested in figuring him out, and not just fucking with him.TownThis doesn't have one because I didn't think to do that until after I did the first ISO.
2.Bulbazak:That being said, I really looked hard for scumtells in your ISO. The biggest thing that stood out was that Bulbazak actually followed up on the answers to his inquiries of gameplay/Mirhawk and made conclusions from them. Honestly, he could totally do that as scum, but he seemed interested in the results and I dunno, I see that more for townBulb. He can be town for now, with a very healthy dose of paranoia that he may not be.I don't think I'll ever NOT be paranoid about you, Bulba <3 You got really mad at me for your lynch in Chain of Command, and that really stuck with me. I'm troubled by it because I find myself townreading you out of guilt. You fucked me up good as far as reading you goes.Maybe town
3.gameplay506Given the join date, and general tone of the posts, I'm not sure I know what's up with this guy. Clearly new to the site/mafia. I can't tell if he's excited to be here or not, I can't tell if this is normal for him or not. Posts seem a bit awkward, but responses sound genuine. Oh, also seems like maybe English isn't his first language, so.. maybe a little trouble for me there as well. He hasn't really given much of his own opinions yet, at least not enough for me to make a determination. Definitely one we'll be focusing on for sorting.Don’t know this person.Null
4.KingdomAces:The fact that it was unprompted here is a little worrisome to me, though for now, I'm mostly inclined to believe it's not alignment-indicative. Actually, there's one thing that really bothered me. It was really small, but really stood out - in post 83, he states that he hasn't rolled scum in a year and a half, and then saysI saw KA explain his playstyle in Dark Age of the Law, but only when pressured based on it."But anyway..."as if to dismiss the train of thought completely. But why? This is going to need a deeper look and a chat with Beli. All in all - not the same KA from Dark Age of the Law.Maybe scum
5.Lying Scum (Belisarius+EspeciallytheLies): such scum omg even their name says so lynch it with fire naow
6.MafiaSSK: Er... can you just like, release a handbook on how to read you because... 2 game posts... (plus confirmation post for 3) egh. It's almost like you couldn't give a flying fuck about your games or your team. I'm cutting this rant short, as it's (mostly) irrelevant to this game. But yeah. wtf...NullI didn't feel like this needed one, but I don't really know how to read this person at al. I've played a few games with him and never really payed much attention. The only one I remember was street racers which I read the slot based on mastin, but overall he put far more effort into it than he has done in other games since then.
7.Mirhawk:His defense of Bert in post 100 is really weird and out of left field, and I don't get it. He throws in the "well he could also be scum" almost as an afterthought just to even out the post and make it look like he doesn't know what's up. It definitely doesn't come across as natural. He's also arguing semantics which is a nice scum tell And Bulbazak is voting for him, after much townier posts than this guy has, and if Bulb is town I kind of want to sheep him. Will need to chat with Beli, but I want to vote here.Don't know this person.Scum

p-edit: heeeey.... Let's chat before voting cuz I don't wanna vote ZZZX right now.

9.Oversoul:I actually rather like his questioning of our first post. I was looking for someone to say something and he's really the only one who asked, and it seemed like he was actually thinking about what it meant rather than just looking for something to push. I also like how open he is with his thoughts.Don't know this person.Town
10.Rubicon:Buuut... I don't see any inclination to get involved or solve the game. Also, the Jester comment was weird.Lynch-bait.Maybe scum
11.snscompt1:. I don't like the posting style in the least. I don't know what to make of this slot. Yet. Needs a closer look.Don't know this personNull
12.Varsoon:His posts this game are a little weird. My perspective is totally skewed though; I've only ever seen him that once where he was town and I was scum. I'm tempted to push his buttons just to see if I get the same reaction but I'm hesitant cuz I'd rather not make him replace out again. I wouldn't mind some interaction now that I'm getting involved in this game though. The read as it stands though is he might be scum. I really only saw excuses for not engaging.I know you hate me. Don't hate me. I was scum there. I did what I had to do.Maybe scum
13.ZZZX. Looks town to me. Nothing pinged so far and he seems really into the game and all about doing things. Not sure how else to describe but I think most people should get what I mean. Anyway I like him for town.Lynch-baitTown
p-edit: seriously Bert? I saw you melt down from the scum QT. Give me a break, okay.. this is not the same Bert, and I gave very clear reasons for my read on you. Just because you think I shouldn't have an idea about you doesn't mean I don't, and scumreading me for thinking you are town is insulting, to say the least.

Do you mean in general or specifically?In post 204, Rubicon wrote:Mirhawk, thoughts on ETL's reads?
In general I don't like the way he gathers his reads, too many of them are based subjective assessments. Things such as meta or transparent posting are things that can be viewed in different ways by different players. Their lack of solidity also means they can be easily ditched when no longer convenient, by simply stating the player is no longer acting in that manner.
In specific, I agree with his assessments of KingdomAces and Bulbazak, but don't particularly like his assessments of bert, Varsoon, Oversoul, and Zed.
That being said, In berts most recent post as he basically implies that he cant be scum because his scum game isn't this good. Which would be fine, except I think he was actually being serious.

In post 174, Bert wrote:I do admit that having ETL locked in on a townread on me already definitely makes me suspicious as these townreads on me lack some kind of clarity about my play which I think is 'unknown' so far.
This is the quote you are referring to. ^ Your posts seem to be for the purpose of "appearing town" with your questions, but without enforcing why you asked your questions in the first place. That doesn't stand you in good stead with the rest of town. Your posts have been reactions or unloaded questions, which so far doesn't seem useful in the long run.In post 200, Bert wrote:your mercurial opinion that I can perfect my "competent" scumgame to where tone is irrelevant seems peculiar
What makes me nervous is why you think I'm worthy of a vote for discussing my meta. I did not bring it up.-

Clear on what, why Cabd's pissy about a perceived BoP read, or why you're willing to vote anyoneIn post 232, morph the cat wrote:Are you clear on this now?voting one of your scumreadsdue to an egregious scumslip?
Because I sure as hell don't grok the latter. #167 was clearly "wrong thread, but right game." Jesters are a bastard element, and how many bastard games are going on right now? Oh that's right, one. The "we" and "stay safe" sentiments are clearly something one would write in a scum QT, and scum have daytalk.
Voting ZZZX after the slip isnotalignment indicative. That lynch isgoingto happen. Scum will be on the wagon to avoid being PoE'd so readily, and town will be on the wagon because when the scum give you a free lynch, you take the fucking free lynch.

Clear that we are scumreading ZZZX. I feel like ETL keeps pointing up supposed (but actually nonexistant) contradictions in our posts. Mostly my posts. I don't ordinarily push back on every little thing, but I don't like how this last day or so went at all.In post 240, Lying Scum wrote:

Morph - I think you're scum for in-thread reasons, as I posted in post 175: empty questions with no follow up, making excuses for not placing a vote, saying snscompt1 is a "person of interest" and not explaining why after being asked several times, and the post that was used as a reason (post 41) doesn't fit with the explanation given.
Additionally, both of you are claiming that I am scumreading you based on BoP and meta. Please read the above paragraph again. None of that has anything to do with BoPormeta. This is a false statement. You have spent many posts saying how this is a contradiction when the argument actually does not exist.
Furthermore, the statement I made about cabd was that he wasgood at catching scum. The exact words I used were "scary for scum". See here:
He then turns around and accuses me of trying to use the argument "Cabd is scary as scum" as a reason to scumread you, which is also false. See here:
It is truly beyond my understanding that either of you would twist a statement in such a way and attempt to apply it as a scum tell, AND have this "misunderstanding" for so long.In post 211, morph the cat wrote:This is a cabdpost. Hi. ETL why are you trying the "omgcabd so scary scum" angle? It...

I don't ask empty questions. Whether I follow up immediately or at all depends on the answers I get.
Your explanation about historical comments to start your paragraphs satisfies me. I haven't talked to Cabd about it. But, some of the other problems I had - for instance your characterization of my question to gameplay being hypocritical or contradictory with my own play, was quite simply incorrect, and I don't see how you can read my posts that way unless you are actually trying to put the worst possible interpretation on each individual post rather than looking at the conversation as a whole.
Players doing stuff that prolongs RVS or that looks like they are ignoring or refusing to engage actual content that drives the game beyond RVS always gets my attention.
I think Beli is aware of this about my early game.
Anyway, you're utterly wrong about us. Cabd has reminded me that you rage about as either alignment, but there are alignment differences in how you go about it, which will come to light. Waiting is.-

From your ISO, it looked to me like you gave someone a snarky response about why you did not place a vote, and then later poked at gameplay for doing the same thing. It looks hypocritical to me in the ISO, perhaps not in context, but the point of doing ISOs is to find the contradictions that may not be apparent in context.In post 244, morph the cat wrote:your characterization of my question to gameplay being hypocritical or contradictory with my own play, was quite simply incorrect,
Is this your explanation of the context? You were poking at gameplay because he was RVSing at a point that you felt it was no longer appropriate?Players doing stuff that prolongs RVS or that looks like they are ignoring or refusing to engage actual content that drives the game beyond RVS always gets my attention.
Also, forgive me if I do not trust either of you to be able to read my alignment correctly from "rage", considering how 1) I haven't played regularly as ETL in the last 2 months and I'm positive Cabd isn't aware of all my alts currently in circulation, and 2) I've been working pretty diligently on adjusting my playstyle, focusing mostly on channeling my emotions and not insulting people. Me telling you what I'm working on regarding that isn't going to help you, but neither is guessing about it.
Lastly, if you're not going to follow up on your questions, how do you expect me to think that is anything BUT scummy? It doesn't look to me like you are actually interested in the results of your inquiry. You can't simply scumread us for pointing out something valid about your play here that doesn't look remotely town motivated. If you actually plan on doing something constructive with those questions, then do it, but don't complain that I'm scumreading you when you haven't yet. I've been strung along far too many times by scum who were "too busy" or "not done yet", and I've done it myself more than once. Actually, until recently, that was probably my biggest scum tell and I don't know why no one ever fucking caught it.
Anyway, I'm done arguing with you. I have other people to sort, and you've become a distraction. I'll come back to you later.

I have no idea how you could possibly have missed that this was the problem I had with gameplay. That was why your nitpicking this against my own tendency not to vote at all until I see something I think is lynchworthy as somehow cotradictory looked like a non sequitorIn post 245, Lying Scum wrote:

In case the conclusion I reached somehow got lost in all the dust you've raised, I think gameplay's reaction to my pressure didn't look scummy.
We'll read you as best we can as the data comes in. The lack of trust in read ability obviously goes both ways. We at least aren't WRONG yet, because we haven't reached a conclusion. The same can't be said for you.Also, forgive me if I do not trust either of you to be able to read my alignment correctly from "rage", considering how 1) I haven't played regularly as ETL in the last 2 months and I'm positive Cabd isn't aware of all my alts currently in circulation, and 2) I've been working pretty diligently on adjusting my playstyle, focusing mostly on channeling my emotions and not insulting people. Me telling you what I'm working on regarding that isn't going to help you, but neither is guessing about it.
I don't ask questions or do anything else in mafia in order for you personally to think anything about me. I ask questions to inform my own reads. I know based on lots of past experience that my body of work always accurately reflects my alignment, and most players will figure that out.Lastly, if you're not going to follow up on your questions, how do you expect me to think that is anything BUT scummy?
