And if anyone is buddying anyone in this game so far, it's you buddy MattP and maybe Wisdom. I mean you are calling them obvious town, saying they are giving off super strong towntells based on things you are assuming without asking.

Yeah, looks like your scumgame and how you treated me at the beginning of that game so I'm happy with my vote. I'll see what ika says when he gets here.

~SW


You keep saying I've "decided" that you are scum as if I've already cast a hammer vote. I think you are scum, yes. If you're town, then I expect I'll see it soon. I'm interacting with you and figuring you out now.

You did only have four posts which is why I didn't have much to say about you. You just don't feel like the town-SilverWolf I've played with in the newbie game. You don't have the fire to figure out the game. I don't see you aggressively scumhunting and trying to move the game forward. I see you mostly complaining about my and Wisdom's suspicion of you and saying that I didn't try to figure you out hard enough before "concluding" that you are scum. So what if I called the scumteam? That doesn't mean I can't change my mind and realize that you are town.


BS-The game barely started. You can't possibly have expected me to have anything figured out yet at the point you called me scum. You know what I see. I see your scumgame from newbie 1656 where you attacked me similarly right out of the gate, up to and including you talking about how you like to make waves and how you expect scum to come after you for your weak points, even though town me in that game, went after you and scum GM on both of your weak points on me.

So yeah, I feel like your scumread is BS and I'm saying so because I'm sure you know, scum have to fabricate scumreads on townies. Having said that, I'm gonna let ika catch up and see if he agrees with me and try to keep out of tunnel/confbias mode.

pedit: GM told you that in the Mafia PT of 1656 that I do that AS TOWN and you told her you were pushing me anyway so yeah, I do think you decided to do it again as scum. But thank you for acknowledging I push back hard against people who scumread me for bad reasons as town. Hell, even your reason for saying you wouldn't do that as scum is the EXACT excuse GM gave me as scum in that game.

Alright so I am caught up on the thread. You guys Meta game way harder than I am used to but I will do my best to contribute (considering that I haven't researched any of your playstyles). Now, I find it strange that Pisskop would OMGUS me on an RVS vote. I can see that you guys don't fluff much so I will avoid doing that.

Now given that this is a chosen game I find is strange that no one has mentioned this. I think that scum will have to be extra cautious this game trying to not buddy or push too hard on individuals that are "chosen" seeing as how they are the only individuals that know who the chosen are.

About OceanWind saying that they are confident about and Anxiety/Lucian being a scum team this early on. Well, surely not. Experienced scum doesn't want to distance themselves from scum, they don't want to buddy scum, and they don't want to ignore scum either. This Lucian interactions with Anxiety is definitely interesting. However if they were scum buddies they would have tried to be more low key.

As for me still being on my RVS vote. Well I don't see a better place for it at the moment. Putting the slightest pressure on Pisskop and then posting some fluff was cause for a PL on me, come on now.

I could see switching to Lucian for the interactions that he had with Lucian (possibly Lucian was trying to associate with the Chosen townie in order to make town think they were scum friends). However I doubt sacrificing one chosen for one mafia would be inefficient, because town would really only have to hunt down one. But yeah surely scum isn't that bad.

My impression this game is that there are no TPR's (namely no doctor)
Day/ People alive / Max scum alive for town to not lose.
1 / 9 / 2
2 / 7 / 2
3 / 5 / 2
4 / 3 / 1

This of course somewhat ignores the chosen mechanic, but we need to hit scum at least once on days 1, 2 or 3. And hit both scum in 4 days. Also we win if we avoid lynching whoever the chosen are.

I'm a little less sure on SilverWolf based on her posts so far. I'll see how that develops. Much happier with my vote on Lucian.

I am finding Yakko to be extremely wishy washy. So far this is his voting record:
Wisdom (#7) (followed Pisskop in RVS)
MattP(#46) (Moving away from RVS and into a legitimate vote)
Lucian (#104) (Following OceanWind calling townread on MattP you change your vote to be on the same train as MattP)

I don't get it Matt, what's your justification on the vote?

I don't like this super rational protown way you're trying to present yourself both in your dissuading Ocean to pursue me and in you trying to get Wisdom to unvote Anxiety on page 2 of the game

Matt, coming from anyone else, I would've called this logic Bs, but I can see that you're a sensible guy, and sensible guys don't vote on account of whim. Especially on players that they're calling protown. Though this is far from the reason I was expecting, I'm actually reading you town for it. But what exactly about my defense/dissuasion/ whatever you want to call it do you find scummy?

I want to see more interaction between Ocean and Matt. I originally thought the meta jab from Ocean was SvT, but now I'm not so sure.

SW burst in here firing questions at Ocean's logic, and I have to say, they've managed to ignore me quite nicely. That makes me kind of sad on the inside, but remember when I asked where the salt for voting Ocean was coming from? I don't need an explanation now.

Ocean, I'll be frank in saying that pre-associative flips, even when a player has still yet to confirm, are pretty bad. I speak from experience.

In post 96, OceanWind wrote:Adding to that is the fact that I do find Lucian scummy. The way he's defending Matt in Post 69 doesn't come across as genuine. Firstly, he didn't even wait for Matt to respond before diving in, and secondly, even if he disagreed with my opinion, that isn't indicative of my alignment.

I didn't need to wait for Matt to respond to find a junky meta analysis scummy. It looked a lot like you were trying to get something out of Matt, (or possibly even posturing a vote over him), and that's what I found scummy. You said you even agreed with me disagreeing with you. That made me do a double take, and left me wondering if you even took yourself seriously.

There is a distinct difference between being protown and trying to look protown, fyi

@LucianRoy -
How do you distinguish between town asking questions to figure out a player's alignment and scum asking questions to "posture for a vote?" If I was trying to "get something out of Matt," that fits with town motivation, doesn't it?

Re-reading my , I think I was unclear. I didn't say that I agreed with your vote on me. I said that I disagreed with everything you've done including your vote on me. "until this time" meant, "until the present time," not "until your vote."

Like you playing the role of a grounded mediator when you have no knowledge of my intentions or alignment, or Anxiety's intentions or alignment, when we had both posted so little at the point you defended us, looks scummy precisely because it makes you look like some sort of voice of reason in a place where we shouldn't be at the point where your voice of reasoning is legitimized. Two pages into the game you shouldn't be telling a player that their vote needs to go somewhere else, and certainly not multiple times within those first few pages.

In post 69, LucianRoy wrote:Ocean, I'm not a fan of meta, but if MattP really wanted to have reads on those players, he could've whipped something up easily. Instead, he chose to play the "let's wait and see" game before jumping the gun on them. I'm doubting his caution is as bullshit as you say it is.

VOTE: Ocean

Like I don't think these sorts of WKing posts come from a legit place of no pre-knowledge of setup

So me and silver have synced up.

Heres our read list:

1. Usted - town
2. Ranger - scum
3. Wisdom - null
4. OceanWind - town
5. Anxiety Attack (ika + SilverWolf hydra) - chosen town
6. pisskop - town
7. MattP - null scum
8. hi im Yakko - null scum
9. LucianRoy - null town

now obviously we have way too many null/scum reads so I am gonna be here for a bit with silver to try to sort them out and have her help me and vice versa.

Open for questions as well

I interjected once because I thought what he was saying was redundant, and frankly, stupid and unnecessary :roll: I thought it was scummy the first time it was suggested by Lucian and I thought it was scummy the second time. You're assuming by availability heuristic that I am a person who interjects trains of thought to derail meaningful conversation and that somehow has negative and intentioned implications and disregarding all the trains of conversation happening in-thread that I have
not
involved myself in. I thought Ocean was town before your push on him based on Ocean's push on me, even if I thought Ocean's push on me was silly - but I didn't interfere with you engaging him.

I obviously disagree with your Lucian read. I don't care right now about any of your other reads.

I was merely trying to convey to wisdom that I had towny vibes off Anxiety, and I largely voted Ocean because I had towny vibes off you. I just acted on them in attempts to see where they would take me. Obviously no where good...

What about the lucian read do you disagree about. More specifically to ask, what make you think he is null or scum? If its in your iso tell me and i can go look because i might have missed it.

I understand you ahev finals and stuff so it can put you a little on tilt but i willsay this here and what i told SW, deep breath take a moment to collect your thoughts and then post. It helps me a lot when all i want to do it be putburt and emotional and snarky even.
