Scummies Invitational (OVER!!!)

[Hoopla]

I do not know why you would counter Incognito's argument of using the surveys as a distraction topic by countering with this comedic roleplay that you, as scum, would tell your scum buddies about your plan just to make Incognito's idea less plausible. I do not think this counter-argument from you makes his point less plausible.

Tenchi, I've already done more countering than you can count. You're grasping at very small straws.

In other news, populartajo is pretty obviously town.

Explain, pls. THX.

How about you tell me about some of your reads? Was this post;

It gets people talking about uselessness and tends to make people worry more about the uselessness than laying votes and finding scumz.

Meh, I think its better than random voting wagons... I'd actually wait whether Hoopla would say something about what he found out with the questionnaire.

Oh look shiny wagon!

VOTE: Vollkan

....meant to be a joke?

[Kmd4390]

Why isn't Vollkan dead yet?

[mykonian]

Ojanen, Kinetic and mykonian were the favourites. You were going to conform because you're a submissive little butterfly. I don't believe the stance you are taking against me is genuine - it feels like a contrived act to assert dominance. Why didn't you want to do my survey?

Hoopla quite obviously doesn't know how I play or what my preferences for a game are. I'm quite disappointed.

5. Sum up your playstyle in one sentence. I find myself not sticking to one singular playstyle.

Hi, you are scum, aren't you?

That said Volk you raise some interesting points and then follow up with a throwaway vote? What up

None of the points I raised in relation to Hoopla resulted in me having suspicion such as might justify a serious early vote (at least until Hoopla answers my question), so I figured I may as well RV as normal. (I don't like RVS, but it's the worst way of starting a game except for all the others, and

sometimes

it works as a springboard.)

Now you are talking yourself into it.

You dislike RVS
Hoopla clearly creates a way to escape RVS
You

comment

on it.

and random vote anyway? Esspecially the incredibily effective (and discussion generating) OMGUS random vote!

Contrary to Hoopla, I dislike Q21's vote on Empking. Going for the likeliest target before he has posted and on page 2 is hardly protown. This is not daring, this might be creating a selffulfilled prophecy.

In other news, populartajo is pretty obviously town.

Explain, pls. THX.

no, we dn't play tht way arnd.

You aren't arguing why someone is town day 1. And unless you have good reason to doubt tajo right now, you'd better look for a different player in stead of "doubting" hoopla's read, which accomplishes nothing.

Or you are just scum who is "discussing" but does so in a for him harmless way.

[Kmd4390]

Myko is obvtown.

[mykonian]

Myko is obvtown.

You want to bet?

God that was a silly joke.

More to the point: why are you posting oneliners. Bored, or trying to look typical annoying town?

[Kmd4390]

Dunno. Lazy maybe. It's not intentional.

[Kmd4390]

Actually, "bored" sounds about right.

[Hoopla]

Hey myko, lets vote KMD together.

Vote: KMD

[SpyreX]

...

So close, and yet so far.

Sometimes we lose sight of the obvious in pursuit of the complicated.

Unvote, Vote: Tenchi

Wagon vote? Check.
Town read question? Check.
No statements about the person he's wagoned but half-fling in other directions? Check.

Now THIS is a vote I can get behind.

[Tenchi]

5. Sum up your playstyle in one sentence. I find myself not sticking to one singular playstyle.

Hi, you are scum, aren't you?

Yes I am <.<
(Seriously now, I really am not consistent with my play. I'd consider myself aggressive but the game that we won the scummie for I was pretty much a lurker. In the last game we had, I got lynched as a lurker scum, but I also won my very first mafia game in Spies by being aggressive.)

Do you think I am a detriment because I do not have a clear meta on me?

Also, SpyreX, I am usually more paranoid then most. Therefore, I do not just clear people just because you say so. Also, I am wary of scum getting some brownie points just because they "figured out" that somebody is town. So... reasons?

The italics I don't even know what to make of it.

And no, no reasons were given. None.

VOTE: Vollkan

....meant to be a joke?

Nope. It's my best vote right now.

Now your explanation on your PopT read? Right now, I am assuming all this declarations (you and Spyrex, maybe more?) are from meta reads which I am strongly distasteful about.

[Tenchi]

*this --> these

[SpyreX]

I am assuming all this declarations (you and

Spyrex

, maybe more?)

What????

VOTE: Vollkan

Unvote, vote: Tenchi

[Kmd4390]

Tenchi looks town to me.

[Hoopla]

$200 on Tenchi.

[Kmd4390]

I'd be willing to avatar bet. Just keep in mind that I have another bet pending so I may be delayed if I lose depending on how long it takes to resolve either bet.

[imaginality]

Bayesian statistics says learning that Kmd4390 is prepared to avatar bet on Tenchi being town should make me increase the probability I assign to Tenchi being scum...

Hoopla, are you voting Tenchi for contradicting himself in the post you quoted?

Not sure I see the problem here.

Contrary to Hoopla, I dislike Q21's vote on Empking. Going for the likeliest target before he has posted and on page 2 is hardly protown. This is not daring, this might be creating a selffulfilled prophecy.

This, I agree with. Except it was on page 1. But it does seem a little like taking the easy route. Also,

Now time to hedge my bets with an Empking vote.

random votes with smileys are 17.4%* more likely to come from scum trying to make people like them.


*Objective accuracy of statistic is not guaranteed in all countries. Consult your local soothsayer.

[populartajo]

TBH, I was also surprised Incognito was the first nonconformist. For some reason, I think he is not an agressive guy, have we played together before?. Incog, would you define your town playstyle as agressive?

I still dont know if this makes him scum. (The thinking of scum that would just play along and answer as townie as possible gives me pause... unless the scumteam is filled with Incognito and noobs).

In other news Im liking Tenchi for scum, followed very close by vollkan. For wagon reasons, etc,

Vote: Tenchi.

Sorry that was in response to KMD's post not yours.

Its a bad habit I've grown over time.

I dig what you're saying. I'm not sure if I am totally BEHIND it, but I dig it.

What bad habit you are talking about here? You took six minutes to answer kmd after vollkan posted, why?

[SpyreX]

I was probably checking other games?

The bad habit is (like here) not quoting directly what I'm replying to.

[populartajo]

Im talking about page, posts 37, 38 and 39.

Post 37 at 11:17 is kmd telling you to vote hoopla. Post 38 at 11:19 is vollkan justifying his random vote and answering to your accusation. Post 39 at 11:23 is you answering two lines to kmd (shouldn't have taken more than 20 secs) and not directing a single word to volkan, which leads me to think that you didnt read volkans post when writing your post.

So why did you take 6 minutes to answer kmd?

Also i just checked the votecount and volkan is the leading wagon, so volkan it is.

Unvote Vote: Volkan.

Hoopz, thoughs of the interrogator?

[populartajo]

In other news, both hoops and myko are obvtown and shouldnt be lynched ever. Voting for one of these guys is now considered a scumtell.

[SpyreX]

I wasn't thinking about his post for sure when I posted that. I probably read it?

Tenchi is far, far better than volkan fyi.
