I don't think it necessarily implies he's scum either. I guess I'm trying to make conversation about people other than jin since jin won't be on much until the 17th. Maybe jin is scum and it's fine to go after him so much, but he won't be the only scum in the game. I also want to see how people respond to claims being made against them.
Are you saying I'm diverting attention away from jin or formerfish?-

As town you have to be suspicious of everyone until you get a better feel for the current game state. At this point in the game we have 2 people who still haven't even posted, and someone doing something i think is scum motivated. The idea that he was just posting some bs seems to be a cover to me for why we will never be able to look for associative tells if Jin dies and flips scum. I am going to hammer that idea right now because its the only one we have. You think someone else is being scummy, point it out. For me I am going to wait for everyone else to post before I start looking for a scum team. Pressuring Jin here is the right move, even if he has stated that he will be lva.In post 48, MooginSoosy wrote:So while we're asking questions, I'd like to know why formerfish is going after jin so much still after he explained he wasn't going to be around much until the 17th. I still think jin is being suspicious, but is it worth it to continue to question someone who isn't going to be around for a little while? Wouldn't it make more sense to also question other people rather than stick to one person in this phase?
Oh and don't forget that day 1 is all about interactions. Who followed who onto a wagon, who never voted for a specific player, who talked to who, there is so much to be learned from the forming of wagons to the individual interactions players have or don't have.-

Aggression doesn't equal scum, most times. It's all in the player and their ability to keep it going. The test is trying to determine if an attack is for real, or a faint.In post 49, JackChaos wrote:I have no idea how to go about this so, Formerfish seems pretty aggressive but I don't think aggressiveness in a game (at least with newbs) would imply he's scum. I think it would be someone playing it cool so... MooginSoosy seems pretty cool right now diverting attention away from him.
(how's that?)
As for what you are saying about Moogin, it sounds like you are describing buddying, possible white knighting, or the start of a chain saw defense. With buddying he could be trying to get me to take some pressure off of his scum partner. White knighting owuld imply that Jin is town and that scum!Moogin knows this and hopes to gain town cred in the event of town!Jins death. A chainsaw defense is where someone defends someone else by saying the first attack is scummy, and therefore the first attacker is scum.-

I mean I get it, but I also haven't stated that I think jin is innocent so I don't know if it would fall under white knighting? My main reason for trying to bring anyone else up was to get an actual discussion going since all that was happening was formerfish asking questions and those questions going unanswered. How much discussion typically happens in each day phase? At the moment it seems far and few between. Is that mainly because there are 2 people who haven't posted at all and a few others who haven't posted much?-

True. How much stock do you put into the statistic that says one of those guys is more likely scum?In post 56, Toto wrote:Still waiting for a couple of people to post or get replaced.-

What's usually the apprehension to posting? Just because people don't know what to post? I feel like I'm the question queen over here hahaIn post 59, Formerfish wrote:Moo, yeah pretty much. Also, newbie games tend to start a lot slower because of apprehension towards posting.-

Pretty much. Or they are scum and they are afraid to post and do something scummy by accident and get found out.In post 62, MooginSoosy wrote:

Actually afer re-reading the thread again I cant really see much aggression from him at all. If anything I think TS was a bit aggressive towards me after I voted for him but I guess it could just be him defending himself. Being my first game ive got no idea how scum will generally act on day 1 so I dont have much to go off unfortunately.In post 61, Toto wrote:Fykus what's your take on FormerFish's aggressiveness and questioning?-

When putting a person at l-1 you generally announce it so that others are aware that another vote would lynch. In this case you are new and didn't know. It's alright.
Now we can look at the wagon that started on Jin, and see who stayed off it. That info could come into play later dependent on flips.-
