Vote: DemonHybrid
Demon, a question for you. Why did you take it upon yourself to answer my request in #26 then proceed to not really say anything?
1. You say you dont have a meta but contradict yourself by saying you play quietly as scum.
2. "Go review my games" is not an adequate response to my post in #26 by any standard. So why even say it.
Post #28 has left me somewhat baffled.
@everyone but demon
Demon's initial reaction to ryuu could be considered townie response, considering his level of passion. But said passion only came after he was bullied into justifications. Demon assumes town is a certain way only and anything that deviates from what he conceives of what town should be is suspect. It doesn't seem like he's willing to account for the fact that ryuu might be a noob, or that simply that there is not alot of weight attached to the attack on him. There are countless variables he seems unwilling to account for. It seems fishy. His past few posts have been a little off. "Hikari and Emp are town" - "Link are you so sharp/experienced". Seems like a nice little detour for the pressure on him.watch for the eggshells-

And I'm not going to do your homework for you. My list of games are a click away, and I don't know what to give you specifically.
So there is a difference between meta in general andconsistentmeta. OK.
Never asked you to. I never asked for anything in specific.
DemonHybrid wrote:Also, Timeater, me calling Link and Empking are relevant to the game and are not meant to be a detour. As well, my interaction with Link happened between the posts of #44 and #51, with the only interaction of another player being Empking correcting himself. So, what exactly was I trying to distract everyone from?
Did I not address that paragraph to "@everyone but Demon"

I was going to unvote you but after this.
Uhh how about no. You're fine at L-3
In response to #66 and #65.
I never stated specifically why I was voting for you, Demon. http://youtu.be/eZdYoGUkqn0
That paragraph, addressed to everyone but you - was just my thoughts on the situation. I wanted to see if you could resist quoting it, if you could resist addressing it. You couldnt. I now know more about you as a player.
You put me in a false dichotomy with the fact that you asked for meta, and then when I tried to give it to you, you shot it down, saying that I was "inconsistent", but yet, you still found something scummy in it, even though I voluntarily gave you the information you needed.
Entirely incorrect false and untrue. I asked for a meta citation, and have gotten it so far from various other posts and sources. "Look it up yourself" and "Sometimes I'm quiet as scum" is not a meta citation. Please dont try to act like it is. False dichotomy my ass.
This was all said and done after a full page of you sitting back and not commenting. You are the one that's spouting the dissonance. Your position on the wagon is scummy, your reasoning is scummy, the way you set up the meta argument is scummy, and the way you attacked my short side conversation and the fact that I gave two reads, which is a perfectly normal thing to do in this game, is scummy.
1. A FULL PAGE OF NOT COMMENTING HUH. 2. I am attacking you because I want to see you flail. You are flailing. Hard. 3. I never gave my "position on the wagon". I never gave my reasoning. Which by the way is this - to keep pressuring you. Any scumreads I had on you at the time of my vote were somewhat inconsequential. After your blatant misrepping/floundering/desperation I'd like to see you lynched. Unlike Link I am not going to give you a pass, especially after the quote at the top of this post. 4. I set up nothing. I merely asked for a meta citation on your playstyle. You are attempting to create this elaborate construction of a "meta argument" where there is none. The only architect is you. You got super aggressive early game, you are going to draw the inquisitional eye. Get over it, sister.

Well I guess if you want to call not wanting a Day 1 lynch in under 24 hours a pass, then sure...
Personally, I wouldn't mind. But thats me.
@Timeater: well what do you think of this Twistedspoon fellow?
He cant triforce so theres that. Oh, and to answer your question (because I'm ISOing you again atm). I wanted to see if Emp would name names - especially after his bold declaration. He didn't. My initial post was trying to be an RVSender, but DH ended up doing that.
I'm not gonna go out and say you're obvtown, but you're close to it. I keep thinking if you're scum you're p. good. I just didn't like post #95.watch for the eggshells-

My read on him changed. This isn't necessarily due to anything he posted, more of an inner realization on my part.
Gonna have to disagree with a few parts of your summation Tick. Also, you never answered my question. Despite his roleplaying in #117 that post feels pretty spectatory-ish, predatory, and noncommittal.

Demon I didn't want to be a dick. BLAME SPOON. In any game, and I'm going to generalize here, there is always wide margin of skill. Lets say Albert has been playing chess for ten years. Little Bobbie comes along, a novice of only two years, and absolutely crushes Albert 9 times out of 10. Bobbie is just better at chess than Albert. Albert plays and plays, then plays some more - but he will never be as good as Bobbie. I'm not some super great mafia player. I'm pretty terrible. I've already roughly made threeish mistakes I wish I could take back. My assessment of you is nothing personal. Just blow it off. Its just one man's opinion.

No particular reason. I like to call out random people earlygame.

Its hard though. Usually the "bad" comes first - the alignment is secondary. Motivations, mostly. Like in DH's case most of his motivations are good.watch for the eggshells-

According to this it is within the bounds of a normal game to allow Day-Vigs. Whether or not there IS one however we will have to wait and see.
Zdenek, congrats on killing a vanilla townie. You are pro.
Anyways, this'll be my last post before I head out to PT so I'll be back in like 4 hours.

claim: vt
I'll be straight up. I've been scummy as fuck this game. I've said a lot of dumb shit. About Demon - because of the way he construed his arguments, the way he put together his cases - I felt they lacked any sort of empiricism, utterly rooted in passion, and ultimately holding up a sort of "I'm right-your-wrong-no-matter-what" style of logic. He was playing like a medieval inquisitor who wants his witch burned no matter the cost, no matter if he's wrong or right. Evidence of this could be gleaned from one of his first posts, where he says "Town acts like X all the time, Scum acts like Y all the time". I dont normally have split-second changes of heart, but since I did, and I rolled with it - I faced the consequences. My unvoting of demon was strange and should have been questioned. I am not 100% he isn't scum. I'd say I'm 51%.
I dont like the way Zdenek has chainsawed for Demon. He's pretty much done it all game. I feel that either Demon is town and Zdenek is scumORthey are both scum. Zdenek was too quick to agree to my post about him being linked with Demon. He held on to it and used it greedily. The way he hopped from me to link then back to me again with the reasoning of a turnip. Trying to mollify Demon with an apology is apparently "the story of blathering scum". His vig was transparent as fuck. If wanted to gambit to get more information, it should NOT have been on Maruchan. I was his number #1 suspect, remember? He tried to justify it with "oh Timeater isn't RESPONDING HE MUST BE SCUM" - what a retarded line of reasoning. Another example of him ammunition-gathering instead of posting with real consequence.

I wasn't saying I got something against vt claims, just that one in particular (because of the meta, he said didn't have time for TS, and just quoted me in his crybaby style. + Next post the misrep). I gotta be honest, I was REALLY tempted to say something like TRACKER or fakeclaim cop just to stick it to this game. But I knew that if I did that I'd only be lynchbait down the line.

@ryuu
The current site meta is that its completely acceptable. 1. It was unnecessary. 2. He faked-vigged the wrong guy. Which should be pointing people to the fact that the act in itself was a scummy one. I am not against gambits when done properly. The thing is though this was a scummy gambit. So I dont like it. :p

Dont you think you should have said that ages ago? Aftering ISOing you, you dont seem to get off DH until his replacement comes around. Do you still think he's scum?
The thing about Don is he's acting really lazy, and he shouldn't be. Its not like the game is 60 pages.

and before I go to bed, I think zdenkek is town (or at least he was) because I don't think scum would want the attention or suspicion drawn to them that a fake vig-ing would cause. It could backfire badly and scum have nothing to gain from it, unlike a reaction-testing townie
I think zdnek is town as a result
Well as it turned out it didn't really draw much attention at all. It sets him up, builds trust because of the current site meta which is 'gambits are kewl!'. I dont think all scum play like lurky lord-gurgi-esq scarecrows.

long story short its good that at least I'm not the only one questioning the Vig. on some level at least. same with empkings lack of doing...anything. openly at least. good to know my brain isn't completely useless in a game of mafia.
Impossible. He may have planned to do it as scum or town for whatever reason, I don't really care, but collaboration between the two of us is impossible.
There was no N0, scum-talk phase of this game. The thread opened at 5:20, we all received role PMs between 5:20 and 5:45, and at 5:45 he opened confirmation, in-thread. There would have been no time for the scum to plan anything together pre-game, no matter who you suspect the scum-team of being.
Quicktopic could have been open prior to PMs, he could have sent scum PMs first, and discussion might have been open during in-thread confirmation since it was the confirmation phase. If what you say is true, I count about 37 minutes that could have contained discussion.
Lets not play outguess the mod m'kay? The quicktopic COULD have been made before the game totally correct. But guess what, scum get the quicktopic link, in their role PMs. Role PMs (for me at least, maybe yours is different. Since you say you think the QT was already opened when game started, maybe you got a role PM an hour before the game started so you could see the QT?) were sent out AFTER the game started. IE: even if QT was made before game started, scum didn't know about it till after game started.
The Day officially started at 5:57. I got my role PM at about 5:30 ish. So yes, scum could have talked for 27 minutes. Which I find is TOTALLY long enough for them to come up with an elaborate day-vig the scum-partner scheme, WHEN THEY COULDN'T EVEN GUARANTEE THE SCUM PARTNER WAS GOING TO LOOK SCUMMY.
I mean lets start being realistic guys? Stop being paranoid (Link), and be realistic.

Guys. After ISOing Tick I'm 100% Link is scum. He might try to claim some vla bullshit too.

Before we all hop on nintendo because it feels like scumbus, I think we might need to BACK IT UP A NOTCH. The last three people who voted Tick are all guilty of being scummy - but lets not to be TOO QUICK to be led on this one.

Reg was undoubtedly one of our best players. Empking also SAID he was one of our best players (but lol). Maru's reasoning on the SK/Vig motivations of killing Emp are sound, but almost too knowing and "thought out". These kills feel Gurgi-esq. The "I dont give a fuuuuck I just kill the strongest players" style of mafia killing.
@Maru: Do you believe a scummer would kill someone D1 who lists them as one of their top scumspects?
