In post 23, Sesq wrote:Don't you realize that overengagement can ALSO be a scum tactic, an attempt to avoid suspicion through vacuous, constant posting?

I know you're new, so you need to hear this: there are no easy scum tells. There is no such thing as "scum behavior". There are unique contexts in which scummy behavior will arise that are yet to fully reveal themselves. Don't chase your tail like a dog here.
You're going to be a joy I can already tell
In post 26, Sesq wrote:I fully meant to be as condescending as possible, because as the oldest player here by far I think it's in all our best interest if I set the facts straight. My vote is also (mostly) RVS, but we have to start making things serious *sometime*, and I figure it might as well be now. I'm helping you. Chill a little.

Also, the main reason I didn't answer the questions is because I thought they were stupid. I like answering questions but not stupid ones.
Overruled now. No need to be condescending in a newbie game. It's literally here for people to learn the ropes.
In post 27, cw357 wrote:I'm getting kind of funny vibes from both Alonzo and DkKoba's slots; probably a gutread at this point but they're staying on my radar
Early SE paranoia is usually a towntell. I've liked most of CW's posting so far it reads as eager newbtown.
In post 29, JDye wrote:The appeal to authority really doesn't sit well with me and there weren't any facts to "set straight" in the first place, so I think it was a bit unnecessary.
I think scum easily could fake a vote here and I like that he didnt vote and is instead trying to sift through the egotism to get a read.

Holy town batman

Scum wouldnt come out of the gate with a PL vote in a game like this let alone with two competing wagons
In post 71, arachnidsGrip wrote:Wow, mean. I like typing like this, don't h8 on me for it, that's lame.

Also, just going to say, the only person that has 8een trying to drive the game really hard has 8een #3 cw357. For as little info as we have, you post way more than necessary.
You understand in order to get info we all have to post, right?

DkKoba is powerwolfing at the moment imo.
This rigid structure following proper townie behaviour is so invigorating

town
In post 98, DkKoba wrote:like fr im just hella overgamed rn and i wanna speedgame it alongside gonna be modding a game soon. so im just going explosive plays.

aggressiveness =/= scummy.

why are u using terms like powerwolfing btw lol wtf is that supposed to mean. imma be hella real with u ur just making up that im scum and working backwards to frame me as such
Why is you overgaming yourself our problem? I think you've had some weird vote timings this game.
In post 99, DkKoba wrote:and thats why ur probably jdye's partner
You think blatant chainsawing like that comes from a newbscum duo? Newbscum typically struggle with reads on their buddy going too far in the red direction. I usually make a disclaimer in my newbie scum games to them about it so they know to adjust a bit for it. I think defense like that would more likely come from town or scum on town lol.

Now, I do 8elieve there is something going on here, 8ut I could 8e wrong. The pro8a8ility of this 8eing a farce is low, 8ut I have other suspicions if that does come to pass.

In post 111, JDye wrote:You're making a mountain out of a non-existent molehill and then going on to make all sort of crazy deductive leaps. You're playing up what's happened to make it seem like I've been so deep in his pocket I'm touching tip, when all I've done is say that I like him trying to step in between me and Sesq. Truth be told, you're not some scumhunting god, and acting like you are this early in the game is only harmful.

Atleast DkKoba is honest about why he wants the quick lynch, he thinks its a meme and he's got a gut feeling. I can respect that. Although, he says that it's because I was trying to be unobtrusive but when I point out why I don't think I have been (64), he just ignores it?
I like this guy too

Actually a good stance. But I feel like the wagon was definitely slowing at this point.

In post 202, Sesq wrote:Then who am I with?
This reads as really scummy to me. “I can’t be scum because you haven’t solved the game completely yet.” Sesq knows that no one needs to answer this in order to make a case against her, but newbies might not know that.
This is goodposting

This reminds me of an interaction I had with someone before I misclowned them recently. mmm.

Let's keep shots above the belt peeps.
I like that hes trying to keep the peace but I think its all I have seen him do
In post 244, cw357 wrote:hi peoples

i'm going to self VOTE: cw357 because everyone thinks I'm conf-scum regardless, so what difference does it make

the main reason is, after reading the game, I'm fairly sure I've solved:
at least one and potentially two of the scums are in Sesq, arachnids, DkKoba


actually, please hang me, because then I will be a conf-town and you can actually
listen to this
. and if for whatever reason I'm wrong then we're no worse off because town is screwed atm anyways.
uhhh

I was feeling the pure town energy before and I think I am from this post too but its been the first post from cw thats made me raise an eyebrow
In post 266, Alonzo wrote:I want to call Rany town, I hope JDye is.
These are very safe reads
In post 279, Rannygazoo wrote:Dk's push for a quick lynch on page 4 is so transparently anti-town that I didn't even call it out because I thought they must have some gambit and I wanted to see how it played out. Maybe they were expecting newbies to jump on the wagon and expose themselves as scummy, or maybe it was a scum play so they could FoS the last newbie on the wagon. It didn't get to L-1 until much later, but arachnid sheeped dk immediately (87, 88). Not even the last time that this happened (210, 212). This is WEIRD, along with their mutual defense and dk's "obvtown" read of arachnid that they can't really explain. It's for this reason that I think that one of these two is scum, but probably not both, because it would just be too obvious if they're on a team together. Either dk is leading arachnid by the nose on a scum agenda, or dk is playing fast and loose (like they said, overgamed and going for fun plays instead of good plays) and arachnid is being an opportunist.
I agree that there is prob 1 scum in the duo but not 2
In post 315, Donempire wrote:i'm actually coming around to a policy lynch on arachnid because this shit shouldnt fly.
Why are you so focused on policy clowns this is the second time youve brought it up

Do you think arachnid is scum? Because its not policy if youre scumreading her.
In post 342, JDye wrote:I can't see any justification for her play being beneficial to town here. I'd be pretty happy with her getting hammered, if she doesn't come up with something decent in the time Alonzo's given her.
mmmm

Scum is way more focused on optimal play. This kinda drops you some.


Ranny
cw
Alonzo (felt better after the initial safe reads)
Jdye
Sesq
Dong
Koba/AG (one is scum other is town)

But I feel like my reads feel way too safe for how the game has been. My top two townreads I'd take to the bank everyone else is subject to move, I'm mostly angling a PoE atm
this was me sry

The four in the middle are subject to change. I think Dong has potential to move upwards. Sesq downwards. Alonzo is playing a safe game and it feels like they're in that crevice scum would want to be in this game.

Re: AG and Koba- last time I noticed a similar voting pattern to the one jdye is highlighting the sheeper was the scum. Mini 2137 if anyone wants to go skim some VCs, scum was votato and town was DrippingGoofball.

I think scum would be way more self aware of their placement in the game and realize the wagon shifted off them and redirecting attention back onto themselves would be a dumb tactic

Am I actively pushing to clown them off of it? No

Am I using it to explain why im wary of the way you two are playing? Yes. Even now that they are starting to get some sideways looks you’re jumping way aggro on it, and now suddenly read flipping on a lead wagon? Have you considered you might be pocketed?

I mentioned last page it’s mini normal 2137 I’ll link it when I get home.

Take it easy. Really, I don’t care how you guys feel about each other but it’s a game. All I ask is we be civil.

Candidly, for future reference, claiming before intent is the wrong play in 9/10 cases. Knowing part of the setup is part of scums strength- by continually limiting it while not being forced to claim under duress we make it easier for scum to get a roadmap of who to kill.

Especially now, I think at most one of those three is scum now. Ranny and cw are still town so I’m guessing last scum is Alonzo or dong?

No, I think AGs is the one that feels extra here. Of course you might be right but of the three, sesq is the one who was at c-1. There’s a reason we play the right way in stuff like this- we’re in uncharted territory

You can’t just call people scummy because they haven’t picked a side yet.

I’m specifically asking Alonzo so we can get some information to read him on because he’s been an enigma wrapped in a puzzle all game snd I want to review what he’s doing around these claims later down the line.

I’m 70/30 rannytown/Pantown atm

@jdye that game I brought up earlier you looked at had scum fake a guilty on a VT and leave the game in his inexperienced (and widely scumread) partner and won off the wifom.

I glazed over the back and forth because toxic confbias slap fights aren’t worth the energy.

I also am probably unfairly nitpicking you some because I’m concerned I’m getting snowed.

Not really, lol. This game is the most toxic game I’ve seen since I’ve been back and that’s not a good thing at all. Quite frankly if it weren’t a “one of you has to be scum” situation I would be unabashedly ignoring these reads and you’d have near no chance of my cooperation

To clarify the neutral part a bit more- it’s kinda an explicit choice on my part? I normally play way more passionately but as I was reading up and saw how toxic some parts of the game were I’m trying to be even keel as to not tip the game back into that. I used to play a style as scum (read:spamming or lurking) that wasn’t really conducive to a fun game environment. It has since made me really (sensitive? Idk what word fits here) to the game state and I’m constantly reevaluating- both for a game fun sense but also to get a sense of “does it feel like scum are controlling this”. For example, my first game since hiatus (the one I’ve talked about briefly here) felt very much lurker and scum led apathy wagon. I had to come in and assert control over town to get that scum out.

Here, we have a lot of passion and hot heads. The best way to balance it and make a game state that provides the best opportunity for town is to be neutral.

Does that make sense? I’m concerned I’m rambling a bit

Yeah I did lol.

I’d say so. I’ve seen fake guiltiest on weird days- (like I’ve brought up) to let the buddy ride to cylo but it’s such a ballsy strat for newbie. The only person in this game who I (in Rannys spot) would trust to bring it home- CW. And I don’t think he’s scum, at all.

So meh. I really want to reread today and feel better about where I’m at but I need to finish up here first

Better question

Everyone- sell me on your vote. 3 sentences, why is your vote right and the other wrong?

For me- I don’t think Newbscum makes this gambit half heartedly. It would only work if the other scum was Uber lock town (such as CW) and I don’t believe that is the case here. I think, as Alonzo said, peta is able to punch holes through an iso simply due to the experience gap.

Both sides are AtEing. In theory, both of these people are “sure” the other person is lying. It’s not really beneficial reading into their back and forth- the confirmation bias of knowing the other person is “scum” colors all arguments.

Re:AG- if you want me to make a case on you using AG I will. I wasn’t because it’s not fair to put you in that situation because you can’t speak for them, but I’ve said since d1 there was scum between your slot and Kona.

Re- my vote on pan: In situations like that it typically is the first person to claim that is the truth. I backed off because I wanted to watch it play out some but it devolved and I called out the devolving.

And you’re right, the only one still alive I’m townreading is cw who I’ve townread all game. Not off one flimsy nai interaction. I was also townreading ranny going in to yesterday but I owe it to the game to give everyone a fair shot.

And I honestly have been leaning town on Alonzo but I’ve seen scum do that quick hammer a buddy to shut off discussion too many times. Hence my skepticism.

I was saying AG was shadowing a more experienced player so down the line any and all blame for said reads fell on them.

@alonzo, fair. We all fall for AtE from time to time. I’m super susceptible to it.

Re the quick hammer it was like right after he hit c-1 you revoted. I felt like it made sense as scum sensing the tides turn and wanting the towncred if that makes sense

I am explicitly referring to my post where I ask everyone for simplified reasonings for voting people.

That’s what swayed jd and Alonzo hammered before everyone could reply and shut off discussion. I also was not /supposed/ to be leading discussion there it was a 1v1 and I only intervened when it went over the line.

At this point it sounds like you decided to try to clown me today instead of actually understand my alignment. You keep asking me to clarify what things I’m saying but it doesn’t feel like you’re looking beneath the surface at me.

@alonzo- he selfhammer Ed. I was working my way over there.

Re- Sesq and dong- this games actually been trickier than the average newbie for me. I normally have way too many townreads to handle. The middle tiers are /supposed/ to be easily fluctuating, that’s kinda the point. As I said in that point the only few things I was confident on was scum in you/Kona, cw and ranmy town. And, re the policy thing- small tidbits of town don’t outweigh a rather meh iso. If you look at newbie 2029 plusjiyed made similar policy comments and flipped town, so it was a moment of pause.

Anyways, feel free to keep picking through my iso. I’m not going to engage you like they did yesterday.

Hey, sorry. Passed out after work.

To elaborate a bit on why I didn't like the slot-
First we have those mirrored movements from Koba and AG. As I said earlier, last time I saw those mirrored movements consistently it was newbscum following an experienced player (Mini 2137, the game Jdye already looked at).
Second, we have that weird claim timing. I just don't see why Town-VT claims there. Sesq was at C-1 and should have claimed. Koba was a PR under pressure and we literally know koba's town now. That leaves the last claim that just felt... off at that point in time.
Third, look at petapan's play yesterday. Given how... intensely... he played that day, I think its safe to assume scum are in a spot where they *needed* that big play to rattle us. I think that lends itself to scum with a widely suspected slot, and iirc Adorable was one of if not the first to openly question and side against Ranny. I think it was a coordinated push.
Fourth, arguments that say "I have not seen anything that looks town from x person" are hyperbolic for a reason. Town would be looking for all options, whereas scum want to seem "committed" to their push and saying nothing is town about them, well, screams overcommittment.

That's it off the top of my head.

I went and checked and you are right. I am misremembering the vote. I do remember thinking that was important that game but I guess he wasn’t as shadowing as I remembered? I digress, that’s a fair argument.

Re: me saying Occam’s then unvoting, ranny was weird at the start of yesterday and like I said, I owe it to the game to hear everyone out and make the right decision (which I did!).

Disagree it’s town-indicative to sheep but that’s a theory chat so not really relevant to the matter at hand

Re:try to clown you for asking for clarification- first off, my points were very clear. You didn’t ask for clarification, you said I said something I did not and I corrected you on it, then called it weird you’d even interpret it as you did. I even asked the peanut gallery for a second opinion to make sure I’m not crazy, so lol

Assuming adorable isn’t viable? I’ll hammer whoever isn’t me bc survivalism (not scummy, I know I’m town vs others aren’t)

Are there any other things I’ve missed?

In post 1057, JDye wrote:@notscience. You mentioned AGs claim as weird (implying it was scummy) but do you not think that it would be even weirder for scum to sheep Koba once more after being called out on it for song.
Not sure but I think you’re asking why keep doing it after being called out for it?

Because a rapid flip over it comes off even worse while doubling down on it has potential to look town?

Like I said I really doubt it’s cw and would only be voting because maybe I’m off a cliff as a byproduct of my disengagement

I can guarantee you tho at least two of both of those pools are town :p

Hey guys.

Real life's been a bitch, sorry.

Regarding the nightkill thing- meh. I think regardless of who is scum in that situation I get brought to cylo- something I've always found useful is why someone is being brought here. Frankly, I think I'm the vote-bait. I'm doing some thinking on it.

1141 is a good point in jdye’s favor, but I’m pretty sure regardless of the scum when we were at 4 I was getting brought to cylo. I think it would make more sense in a scum Jdye to kill cw but I know I can’t really expect scum to act how I would act in the same situation

Imo I would be happiest if everyone lost this game but I don’t think it’s feasible.

My predecessor literally replaced out from the toxicity. And then we still persisted with name calling and personal attacks. Tempers flare but it just ruins the fun of the game, you know?

And don’t sweat it cw jdye was going to cross you too- a great tactic as scum brought to cylo is to play up paranoia. If I was more available I would have done more to do so.

I don’t really care what you do re our pt Bork it’s up to peta

I also made the right call doubling up the actions on dong slot n1 lol.

I see a lot of blaming newbies when town lost as a team lol. Yeah newbies made mistakes but like... cmon

I also see a lot of people saying games are normally this toxic? Literally no. If you find a player who’s toxic you blacklist them and don’t play with them. This is the worst game I’ve been in since I’ve been back hands down.(not Bork you’re great o/).

You understand the only players who didn’t really have anything to do with it were the people still around d3 lol

And nth Bork. I wish I had more time to devote to this game because I frankly think both teams deserve the L here.

@the 3 reasons- I was looking to either pivot myself or lead someone to hammer ranny.

Re not prodding for his result and autovoting- that was a scumslip. I overplayed for the info that was out because I knew I didn’t go anywhere and this was safe and given ranny claimed it was obv who he targeted. Which of course I’d only know that as scum lol
