OK. finally. I got some time. I just woke up from a nap. have only slept 5 hours out of the last 48, sry to keep you all waiting but that is definitely more important. *stretches and yawns* Yeah, this is three full hours late :0 obvscum!!!! lol
Post by post analysis of thread (caution, may contain IIoA):
@ Seraphim accusing Tasky of double-standards in RVS: w/e, I dont think it's a tell. if he's a newbie, let him act like a newbie. I am wondering why ooba would let such a newbie into a large theme game though
SharkFinn's entrance to the game in #44 doesn't seem particularly strong or well thought out, but... yeah its pretty early to have anything to go on. In #45 though he pushes for a lynch already: "5 more to lynch Tasky (of course I doubt it will happen soon)", which I don't find particularly useful or pro town.
I kinda agree with #47 from ckd. I hate playing with lurkers and flakers.
#49 from digi seems more like town-paranoia than scum-freakin-out, as I mention in #50.
I like #53 from Anon.
#54: Sharkfinn is also a VI. Oh noes. Now we have two already.
#60 and #61 from diginova sounds like an IC talking, not really like a player playing. This is not a newbie game. If scum don't have a day talk QT, why help out newbies in this game? This game shouldn't have newbies in it, period. It makes things a lot less fun for serious players.
No offense to them since they've obviously been trying a lot harder and paying a lot closer attention, but yea it's kind of tough when you're in ten current games like I am.
But seriously,
have they even completed a newbie game, mod?
#62. Ok wait. We have three. This game is looking a lot harder to win now... I'd definitely not want to see any of those three in a MyLo situation.
Karma's comments in #66 about sharkfinn's #44 echo my own.
sharkfinn's #67 is terribad in defending against #66, but then again looking at his join date... idk. still though, read this: "At the moment of the post, he was the scummiest in my eyes. Of course it was not set in stone and I already had intentions to move the vote if things got closer." So he voted for whoever the largest wagon was because he was scummiest. yay, because votes on somebody make them scummy! logic fail. but the disturbing part is "Of course it was not set in stone and I already had intentions to move the vote if things got closer." <-- ORLY. then what is the point of a pressure vote?
and that he says that "most people put themselves on their own 'town' list has me facepalming right now.
#72: yawn
#73: nice avatar, that is from the Doubt manga, right? and wait a second...
are you friends with KageLord in real life??
#79: I like this post. I think I like 99% of Magna's posts on the site. They drip town. Easy to say after he's all dead and flipped and whatnot, but yeah, point stands. this post was good even before he died.
#82: after seeing gandalf's flip, what does this make you think?
my #88 and #89: sorta my excuse for not paying so much attention. lol
#100: same here, ckd. what do you think now? lmao
I like #103 a lot. Enough to lay a vote on it.
Vote: Zang
#106. Go-go-gadget-IC from a newbie, that's a new one
Ok I'll stop, lol
#107. shhhhhhhh let him figure these things out by himself. this is not a newbie game, please stop treating it like it is. they won't learn more by being babied, they'll learn more by making mistakes and getting ganked for it. (yes, i realize that if they are pro-town that it's 'scummy' of me to say this, but frankly, I don't care)
#109: what do you think of your gut now, Empking?
#110 sparkles with pro-town loveliness.
I like #112 as well, but that looks like it could also be a scum sheep vote with parroted reasoning. Still, looking at the join date, it could just be an earnest vote.
@ 118: ORLY diginova. you missed it. i believe you.
Zang's third reply in #120 makes me want to backhand him, but it seems like only a townie would say something like this. And it's true, Zang plays differently as scum. But I ... but...
Unvote
Seraphim #122: WOOP WOOP IIoA ALERT!!! scummy post
ckd 124: you seem rather jumpy about a vote on you, good sir. and not even a vote, just a threat of a vote. noted.
#125: i don't know razorback either. who's razorback?
I kinda like 127 even though the vote is wrong. nobody could have known. I thought thelonging was scum just as much as anyone else did (except the real scum that is, lol). anyways in a game this large, it's likely we have 2 scum groups and/or a number of third-party roles like gandalf's.
sadly, the points about me in #143 were spot on.. moving on
#144: though i agree that magna's posts are long, there's generally a lot of good content there if you wanna dig a bit. he thinks through things significantly more in-depth than most players i know, and when it comes to
I like #148 by 'I doubt it'. The points about Zang AND the points about TheLonging. How long have you been on the site, IDI? you seem to know how to cut through the crap and get to the meat of the discussion, at least, a lot better than some of the other newbies floating around. I see you have been here a month, that might explain most of it.
And for what it's worth: Even though TL flipped town, she deserved to die. (She's probably in the dead players quicktopic at this very moment shaking her fist and screaming "I AM NOT FEMALE!" rofl)
.......
This is taking longer than I thought. My readthrough analysis of page 7 and on will have to come later, along with my thoughts about certain players and overall summation of the thread. Sorry again for promising more content which I can't yet deliver... but... hey thats life.
