In post 2336, Espeonage wrote:Going to fucking do this proof again.
Ok here is the important bit.
It is a widely accepted rule of modding that it is in poor taste for a game to be allowed to start without any scum in play. This is due to various concerns mostly regarding that scumhunting gets fucked with and quick lynches are assured of not hitting scum. Therefore when deciding at what point to allow the start of the game, mods count scum and pick the amount of scum +1. This ensures there is at least one scum confirmed at game start.
So combining this with the above quote means we have 6 scum. Having a 6 person scumteam in an 18 player game seems incredibly off balance-wise. How is this balanced out? By having them split across a second scum team. Two three man teams is much more balanced. A tad town sided I think but that is easily offset by some scum power. A much more believable setup.
It's not a proof of anything. "Widely accepted" and yet people who mod games (including myself having modded many games offsite) don't have any idea what you're talking about. It's not listedanywherein the Wiki articles about good modding. And you are flat out contradicted by the fact that the newbie games are strictly regulated and start with 7/9 confirmed (I've never seen it be 8/9 and I regularly IC in the newbie queue), and newbie games have two scum. Your entire "proof" fails because the premises upon which it rests fail.
In post 2337, Espeonage wrote:Ok so what does this mean for the game?
It means that the usual method of using lack of conviction in reads and other such tells that revolve around the fact that scum have to fake scumhunting are all out the window. Scum need to scumhunt too. It also changes other things. For example Shiro's 2335 just above is negated by asking how two people are meant to influence a wagon off someone in an 18 players game to the point where it stagnates a potential lynch target. What that tells me is that the friction is town sided, and so there is nothing usable from the observation. Pig might be scum, but it's not because of the difficulty the wagon is having getting off the ground.
Why do you want to force people to change how they scumhunt? Your entire agenda appears to be to force people to accept your weak setup spec and move out of their practiced ways of scum hunting. This is troubling, for obvious reasons.
In post 2339, Espeonage wrote:There's a mix of 7 and 8, and there also shouldn't be.
There are nearly 1700 newbie games archived. Shall we pick 50 random numbers between 1,000 and 1670 and look at those games and see how often it is 7 and how often it is 8? Before even making the effort, I predict that there is a strong chance that we will find no newbie games in the random selection that require 8 confirmations to start, let alone anything even close to being considered common.
I also want to note that you have, as of post #2339, swapped from talking in absolutes to talking about what should or should not be. If you aren't even actually sure your speculation is for sure true, why are you pushing it when assuming wrongly could do huge damage to us?
In post 2341, Espeonage wrote:I will be incredibly disappointed if a game this large was started without any scum in it. It's negligent modding.
Sorry but you're wrong. The game needed 2/3 of the players to confirm. For all you know, all the scum confirmed before the game started.
I'm trying to decide if you are scum trying to push this for town cred or to get people to abandon their usual strategies for finding scum ... or if you're sincere. I honestly cannot tell. You present like you are trying to logically prove something, but if you understood the basic rules of logic, you would already have concluded that you cannot know whether your premises are sound and therefore you cannot trust any conclusions. The only thing you can do is wait and see if evidence of multi-ball shows up, at which point you can say you were "right", although it would be more a case of a blind squirrel finding a nut in this case. Your logic is unsound and therefore your conclusion does not logically follow.
In other words ... if you end up being right, it will be because you got lucky and nothing more.Get to know a Drixx - Recently Updated!-

drixx was a very town lean null slot in day 1 for me. when I saw titus brought up him in her town block I got shocked because I wasn't so sure about that. his attack on Elyse makes total sense to me. and his conversation with dave is not something I count scummy.
But I just don't like the amount of logic in his arguments. we're playing with humans here and I think viewing everything in a logical surface is a kind of ignoring some important facts.
his recent post answering to Esp makes me think there is something fishy going on here. that I will talk about it in my later posts.False tears bring pain to those around you

In post 2371, Grib wrote:You said you might agree with a pistachi0n lynch. Why, and what's stopping you?
nothing is stopping me. both pig and pista have a shitty ISO.
pig has 41 posts , always defensive , he has no solid read. just town lean and some agreements on finding others scummy.
pista has 51 posts , always 1 line , throwing stuff without reasons , branching everywhere, never defended himself at all , his only single solid reads are Aj->scum and titus->town and he never tried for these reads.
so I'm happy with both wagons. prefered pig atm.False tears bring pain to those around you

I think both of them are equally bad. but at least pista is trying ... I don't know. why you think pista is a better option than pig?False tears bring pain to those around you
