I don't like this. It seems in spirit with OMGUS. I don't think it's alignment-related, I just don't think it's effective scum-hunting. You shouldn't town read people for town-reading you.In post 91, eagerSnake wrote:Well nn30 is probably town.

True. But I don't hard-bucket anyone so. Everything is just a matter of probabilities. In weighs towny though, so it pushes the needle. He's at least thinking about the game as a whole rather than mono focusing on one or two targets.In post 98, eagerSnake wrote:Could be faux-analytical

You say that like it's a bad thing.
QUESTIONS FOR EVERYBODY
1) What is your preferred alignment?
2) Are you often mislynched? If so, why is that?
3) Can you describe your play style concisely in one sentence?
4) If you were the deciding vote at lylo with the slot above you, and the slot below you, which player would you lynch and why? (Ex: 1 would be deciding between 13, and 2. 2 would be deciding between 1 and 3. 3 would decide between 2 and 4.)
5) How excited are you for this game?

I read the RVS of a few random games. In 2 of 3 games my initial scum-reads turned out to be accurate. There's a lot to be learned in RVS.In post 99, MariaR wrote:I don't think anyone has done anything that is towny or scummy yet but this is amusing to watch.

I've been finishing up a new set I want to use.
Some people are roundabout in the things they do. However, it doesn't mean that they don't get anything done.
That was more me signifying that I was about to post my questions then anything. If I had gotten a response, positive or negative, I would not have pulled back from my original opening.Yes, I like to review the question results to see if I can divine some alignments. Why not contribute to the game with your answers?If this is non-sarcastic then I'm holding you to this - I'd like to hear what actual alignment-indicative or otherwise useful content you're getting out of these questions.Grendel wrote:If its cool I'd like you all to leave me to analyze them,
Also of all games to feel like you need to force an RQS or RVS, this is a very silly one. We havea claim.On page one. An unusual one at that. We have a goldmine of material to analyze already - why do you feel the need to instigate an RQS? RQS and RVS as they're usually conceived are both kind of outdated anyway. There's usually enough substance in the first few posts to get reads that are legitimate enough to argue about, even if they're very unstable.
I don't know if Eager claiming ascetic at day start is more likely to come from town, or scum. So I'm doing something I'm more familiar with.
I'm interested why you find my entrance poitenally scummy when you feel Zoronos is legitimately scummy. If you thought that Zorones was implying I'm scum then why was your initial reaction to my post, "well that's kinda scummy"? Sorry, but its weird that you'd have me as a tertiary scum read while your top scum is, in your opinion, also scum reading me. If you think he is scum, why do you think I am scum too?
I am not seeing much town intent with these pushes of yours.Okay, gun to your head: Am I mislead town, or misleading mafia?Zoronos wrote:Because I don't vote the instant I have an inkling of suspicion. Or moreover, because the simple act of asking the questions isn't necessarily scum play. Using the questions as a sole form of contribution on the other hand is (which doesn't necessarily mean Grendel, a townie putting down that kind of list gives the scum room to dwell on it to contribute, so it isn't even that Grendel is scum for doing it, it's just pro-scum to exist). So yes, I'd rather take the hard line early and nip camouflaging play in the bud.In post 64, implosion wrote:Zoronos, you're implying a scumread on Grendel; why not follow it up with a vote?
Or maybe these boards don't have a conception of 'fake content' or maybe I'm using the wrong jargon to explain the idea. If I'm unclear, well.
I disagree what you are saying about RQS, but I'll have to wait until I've gotten a decent sample size before I post full reasoning.
In the meantime it'd be super nice if you'd humor me and play along.
I'd cut him a little slack. I basically called his approach to the game bad and slightly scummy. No defensiveness would be really odd (and an indicator of a low-ego player, or someone artificially playing that way).In post 117, nn30 wrote: I'm suspicious of this post. It's too early for you to be this defensive.
1. Mafia, cause I love the wifom. But I probably play better as town.In post 43, Grendel wrote:I like it when people make Beowulf jokes.
