I think you're readying way to much into that. Dry-fit is saying policy lynching everyone who claims is a bad idea, which it is. It is also a response to a joke from Commie, which was a reference to the last game we played together. In that newbie we had two townies fake claim power roles, needless to say we lost and it left a bad taste for random claims in our mouth.Retired GM of Px2 - It's like a book club, but with bullets.

I'm having trouble understanding the concept of being "inactive & pro-town." Can you clarify?Furcolow wrote:
Considering the scenario we are in, we have a very good opportunity ahead of us to lynch either a mafia member or a werewolf. I am very suspicious of people who aren't being active and pro-town: yellowbounder, nightson, and dry-fit just to name a few. yellowbounder has 1 post. I am going to vote him. I will consider unvoting if he is replaced or explains himself well.
vote: yellowbounder
Can you justify how yellow, nightson, and dry-fit fit in the category "inactive & pro-town?"
You said you were going to scumhunt, but you return with what amounts to a lurker/inactive vote. I see this as a cop-out, as you never presented any findings of actually scum-hunting.

I see it as attacking bad logic and poor cases. Personally, I don't see where Dry-fit has done anything that needs defending by him or anyone else. Furcolow's attack on him was unjustifiable, an action I consider scummy.CommieX wrote:EBWOP: I feel it's relevant to mention that in that game that was linked earlier, Zipper chainsawed the hell out of someone D1 (he was town).
However, I would prefer it if we could hear the person defend themselves first.

I have to disagree, the RVS is the base from which the entire game is built off of, and I have to agree with Commie, votes lead to discussion. Its the discussion that becomes relevant later, yes, but we would never get to that discussion without some random votes to start things off. Also, the RVS can be studied during the late game to decipher vote patterns, which can help town find scum.JesseSheffield wrote:
For players to show how unfunny and unoriginal they are.
No, but in all seriousness the random vote stage and the votes placed in it usually mean absolutely nothing. It's how we get out of RVS that matters.Retired GM of Px2 - It's like a book club, but with bullets.

First off: Start scum-hunting and I will.Furcolow wrote: First off, get off my nuts and quit tunneling.
second off, I said they're being unhelpful and inactive when i said "who aren't being active and pro-town". You knew this. You are just being a difficult fuck.
Second off: I see what you mean now, I completely misread that the first time and will admit being wrong. That being said, there is no reason to be a dick. I think that qualifies as a genuine overreaction.

Why? Can you give them a reason not to vote you?Furcolow wrote:"there is 4 people voting you"
you are really making me trust in this town...
regardless, 6 of you who will read this are town, and should consider having my back
These are obviously serious accusations. How about you point out who is doing these scummy actions.I am not going to claim at L-3, so either get votes on me or off of me
There are people rampantly ruining this thread, not committing to actually scumhunting, and just senselessly bandwagoning.
I fail to see how metagaming and wifom help your case. So far all you've done is random vote, attack lurkers, and overreact. Those could all be actions of a scum Furcolow or a town Furcolow.If you all would just go analyze a game in which I am town you would realize that I am not a fucking werewolf or mafiaRetired GM of Px2 - It's like a book club, but with bullets.

Obviously, you missed this...

I didn't like his actions regarding both D1 wagons.
I'm also slightly suspicious of Sevei for the same thing, but I'd like to try a CES-wagon again.

So how does my actions toward Furcolow factor into you thinking I'm scum? Do you think I was busing him from the start?
There has to be something to back up your gut, otherwise you're guilty of the same thing Sevei is and deserved to be lynched.

Well, I certainly didn't push it because all I've got is a vague gut suspicion.Cogito Ergo Sum wrote:I didn't miss it, but you never really tried to get a wagon on me going - if we disregard CommieX's V/LA notice, only Jesse, Sevei and I posted between those two posts of yours.
I hardly call outright attacking him "distancing." I had plenty of time to unvote before he even became close to being lynched. Furcolow was making baseless attacks against people, much in the same way you and Sevei are doing, and I attacked him for it.
I doubt it was bussing, but distancing which accidentally helped lead to his lynch is very much possible. There certainly was no reason to suppose that he would end up getting lynched at the time of your vote.zipperflesh wrote:So how does my actions toward Furcolow factor into you thinking I'm scum?

You still haven't proven how I'm mafia. All you've done is provide a hypothesis where I was scum distancing himself from his scum buddy.
My gut is quite reliable, thank you very much and Sevei doesn't deserve to be lynched, but, as it happens, my second point does back up my gut.zipperflesh wrote:There has to be something to back up your gut, otherwise you're guilty of the same thing Sevei is and deserved to be lynched.
You think baseless accusations are fun?

I don't have a problem with using your gut, I use mine all the time. What I have a problem is you attacking me without reasoning and blaming it on gut. Chances are if you truly have a gut feeling that I'm scum then I've done something to provoke that response. If not then you are lying scum.Cogito Ergo Sum wrote: Gut is awesome and is a completely valid method scumhunting if a not particularly convincing one. You keep asking me why I think you're scum. The notion that me answering truthfully could in any way constitute mudslinging is laughable.
My vote on you was a carry-over of my vote on you yesterday, with an additional suspicion based on your wagon hoping, and sprinkled with me wanting to start the day off with a vote. I came back later once the Jesse/Sevei discussion was underway and voted Sevei based on his response to Jesse, in fact I was the first to vote him.I probably wouldn't have batted an eye if you had started the day voting Sevei, but the timing of the switch seemed highly opportunistic to me. I get the feeling that you switched to Sevei because Jesse was already pushing the Seveiwagon for you. I'm also not entirely clear how I'm supposed to be "guilty of baseless attacks" when I'm fairly sure all I did was fun bandwagonning (the advantages of which are aptly demonstrated by Furcolow's breakdown).
You are guilty of "baseless attacks" because you continually say people are scum without showing a shred of evidence. Need I remind you this is the same tactic Furcolow attempted to use which resulted in his lynch. If you think people are scummy then you need to put you money where your mouth is, otherwise you're mudslinging.
I've already explained what my gut feeling is based on --> Your baseless attacks, and the way you hopped wagons on Day 1.Then what is the "vague gut suspicion comment" about? What purpose does it serve? I do have more on you, but you're obviously not going to agree with me.
If you've got more on me then POST IT! I can't very well properly defend myself from a guy calling me scum for no reason, but perhaps when you provide your evidence (I'm doubting you have any...) I'll be able to defend myself.
Are you saying that mafia isn't a game about collecting evidence on a player to convince the town to lynch that person? I don't think so, where I come from we have to prove our accusations or be held accountable.You'd have to be a fairly crappy player for me to be able to "prove" that you're scum by page with any regularity. That's not how mafia works. Also, calling people scum in a game of mafia is just part of game and not slander.
Calling people scum without providing a reason is slander, not a part of the game. Proving someone is scum via a presentation of the facts is a part of the game and how you play mafia.

I did post in other games, but I wasn't under any pressure to respond immediately to CES's post. Personally, I respond to things when I have time. I had time to answer a menial question in a Newbie game, but I haven't had the proper time to adequately respond to CES's post. How 'bout you quit trying to meta me and have a little patience, or are you trying to get me lynched before I properly rebuttal?Mafuyu wrote:But you were the one under fire with what's a pretty legitimate argument, so trying to diffuse the dodging accusation with "But everyone else was doing it" isn't going to fly, especially with the note that you were posting elsewhere on the site during the timeframe mentioned.

First off I'd like to start with this:
I'd be very much interested in seeing these, and I'd like to know your thoughts on each player based on them. Unless, of course you want to be caught in a lie...Cogito Ergo Sum wrote: I form my gut reads through reading ISOs(I ISOed each player at the start of the day.)and they tend to be based on the totality of a person's posting. I wouldn't be surprised if there were specific elements that triggered, but in that case I didn't manage to isolate them.
...now unto this supposed contradiction.
The first quote comes from #224, which was a response to #223. What I say there is correct, but I did use the wrong words. This was a result of me not fact checking, because when I replied Sevei already had some votes. I wasn't concerned about voting order, and what I should have said there was Jesse/Sevei discussion. It seems you believed Jesse had been the first to vote as well, since in #234 you said,
Good thing you pointed that out, because this is what you said earlier:zipperflesh wrote:I came back later once the Jesse/Sevei discussion was underway and voted Sevei based on his response to Jesse, in fact I was the first to vote him.
You've just given two contradictory explanations of the same event.zipperflesh wrote:...for some reason (perhaps you are scum?) I can't get a wagon started on you, so when the Sevei wagon started I hopped over since I was just as suspicous of him.Unvote, vote: zipperflesh"I get the feeling that you switched to Sevei because Jesse was already pushing the Seveiwagon for you."When I answered that, I did go back, and I fact checked. This was where I saw that I had in fact placed the first vote, which as you can see I hadn't realized myself. In all honesty, I thought I had voted after Jesse, but the truth of the matter is that while Jesse was "pushing a Sevei-wagon" with their discussion he was doing so without a vote.
So, I made a poor wording choice and a mistake due to posting based on my memory of events rather than what actually happened. Mistakes happen, and that doesn't make me scum. What CES has failed (and still refuses) to do is show reasons (prior this discussion) that make me scum. Why has he done this? I suspect it is because he is scum. Is it unreasonable for me to ask CES why he found me scummy, and is it unreasonable to expect a valid answer from him?
This just shows how callous you are. If you are town, you are doing a poor job of it. You refuse to acknowledge my points because you know they prove you wrong. For some reason you are reluctant to admit you have nothing to hold against me. For you're convenience, I'll repost the specifics:I was going to respond to the rest of your post, but screw it. Die, scum, die.

List of things CES needs to provide:
1) ISO of every player and his read thereof.
2) Evidence prior our discussion that provides reasoning for him calling me scum.
3) A valid response to the ignored portion of post #240
If he fails to provide the first two he should be lynched under LaL.Especially, #1.
#3 is a personal request, as I don't think valid arguments being ignored.Retired GM of Px2 - It's like a book club, but with bullets.

Its entirely possible you're scum attempting to accumulate votes on me before I had time to rebuttal.Mafuyu wrote:Lynched...with two votes. That's stretching.
As an aside, a rebuttal can take more than one wall of text to do. You apparently had time to post that little retort, a teaser of your defense would be appreciated.

I thought you said you were joking when you called Jelly scum. Can you explain why you feel he is scum?Cogito Ergo Sum wrote: You seem to have misunderstood. I simply read each player in ISO. There's nothing for you to see. The only meaningful conclusion I drew from it I've already shared: that Djelibeybi is harbouring a dark and terrible secret.
What do you mean? I was suspicious of both of you for baseless accusations, but I choose to switch my vote to Sevei because of his reaction to Jesse's attack. How is that a contradiction?You're not addressing the central issue, which is that you have posited two wildly different motivations for your Seveivote.
A gut call is not a valid reason to cast suspicion upon anyone. In order for it to be worth a damn you have to validate your gut with evidence. The fact that you continually fail to provide a reason for why I am scum proves to me that you scum just looking for an excuse to lynch someone.I most definitely have explained why I think you're scum (gut + Seveivote). You just seem to think that I need to provide a convincing case (which my gut is unlikely to provide) merely to include you on my scumlist, which is simply false.

Apparently, CES thinks he can catch scum on gut and meta alone, both of which he has admitted has nothing to do with in game actions. This is a dangerous and anti-town stance to adopt, either he's scum or a terrible player, now I've never played with him before so I'd rate it as scum trying to pass off gut as an excuse not to scumhunt.Retired GM of Px2 - It's like a book club, but with bullets.

Unvote. Vote: Jesse
Sevei's last post is actually a fairly good defense.
I don't like CES, but I'm getting the feeling that's more OMGUS than he's actually scummy. Although, baseless attacks are a pet peeve of mine, and I will pressure someone if they don't provide any reasoning.
While I agree with him, I always get a bad vibe from people who buddy up with me. I think appealing to another player's ego is a slight scum tell.
I'm also not a fan of Nightson, for reasons already stated, and I'd be willing to pressure wagon him.Retired GM of Px2 - It's like a book club, but with bullets.

It is practically impossible to provide "proof" that a player is scum, especially now that there are no power roles in the game. In my experience, scum who think they are playing a good game get pretty annoyed when somebody catches onto them, but then does not explain why.petroleumjelly wrote: I don't understand how that's especially scummy though. I would think anyone who was accused would be like "well then, provide proof I'm a baddie."
So... JesseSheffield is still alive. This is a problem.[/quote]
Keyword is catches onto them, that implies said scum has done something worth of being caught, which would me the attacker would have a valid explanation for their attack.
What you are talking about is exemplified in mu catch of Furcolow, he was so aggravated that I had caught him for baseless attacking Dry-fit that his actions devolved into mindless babble. What you see in me is peeved town trying to discover why he's being attacked.Retired GM of Px2 - It's like a book club, but with bullets.

Ya' see, this is what I've been talking about. CES stands around calling people scum and when asked to support his accusations all he can say is "gut & meta." Its completely and utterly ridiculous that he should be able to do this and get away with it scott free.Retired GM of Px2 - It's like a book club, but with bullets.

Please lynch CES.
I have nothing else to say.
(I've already given my reasoning for voting Jessie)
Tier 1 - (Lynch these dudes)
CES
Nightson
Jessie
Tier 2 - (Scummy or Suspicious, Investigate)
Mafuyu
Katsuki
Jelly
Tier 3 - (Null Reads, Lurkers, POST MOAR)
drmy
Tier 4 - (Town Reads)
Sevei
Sapro
------------------------
Its pretty obvious that scum are pushing my lynch over both Jessie and Nightson. It wouldn't surprise if at least one of them were scum, if not both.
I think Mafuyu and Katsuki reasons for voting need to be looked into for possible scum motivations.Retired GM of Px2 - It's like a book club, but with bullets.

I think drmyshott's meta is to replace into a game and jump on whatever the most prominent wagon is at the moment... can you give us you reasoning on why you find me and Mafuyu as the scummiest and why (of all people) do you have a town read on CES?
also, it should be noted I have tried to get CES lynched, because I remember you saying I had to be scum because I didn't push any lynches... (horrible logic btw)Retired GM of Px2 - It's like a book club, but with bullets.

His argument was that I didn't push a lynch because I had a night kill. :/
Quite defending his illogical attacks with you own kooky logic to make me look worse and him look better.Retired GM of Px2 - It's like a book club, but with bullets.

One word.drmys wrote:
Ok Zipper this is your first post and it is already scummy. Because here, Zipper made a joke about being scum, and thus tried to instill in our minds the fact that he isn't. I've used this many times, as has a lot of people who I've played with as scum. It may just be meta(provide links if it is), but I find it to be a scum tell.zipperflesh wrote:Vote: JesseSheffield
Third vote on the wagon! I must be scum! :VJoking
How about you provide links showing that this is a valid scum tell, you know, since you and people you've been scum with have done it so many times.
The vote on CES was in relation to him saying he was town.
Yay! for random vote hopping!!... but wait whats this?!?zipperflesh wrote:
:/Cogito Ergo Sum wrote: You may use that I am town.
Unvote. Vote: Cogito Ergo sum
Let's see if we can prove/disprove that statement.
Om nom nom! OMG he did it again two posts later!! I find this really scummy.(Both of them)zipperflesh wrote:Unvote. Vote: Dry-Fit
Sha-Zam!
Because in the first one it almost sounds as if he is saying "hey guys let's lynch him for fun and a little bit of info"
The vote on Dry-fit was a joke as well, but I was also pushing the wagon on him for reactions.
Can you explain how these actions are scummy?
Again, this was taken from early in Day 1. Voting someone for fun/info is exactly what you are supposed to be doing.
Hypocrisy!! yay, more scum tells. =D. Also Zipper buddy chainsaws are dangerous, but this was more of a weed wacker with a diesel engine. Or in other words it screams scum at me, yet in reality it didn't hurt you very badly even when you cut your self with it.zipperflesh wrote:I don't see where Dry-fit has done anything that needs defending. I'm attacking you for saying you have a valid reason to be voting for him, which you have failed to provide.Can you point out the hypocrisy?
Using Chainsaw defense against me is irrelevant, because it only matters in cases where the person being defended flips scum.Can you explain how defending someone from a baseless attack makes me scum?
1. & 2. were a misunderstanding. I acknowledged this in the next quote you ISO'd. Reading in context is fundamental.ok so here I numbered the points I am going to make against you.
1. with a game made of almost 50% anti-town roles, they fit hand in hand. And your anti-anti-scum mentallity is noted.
2. Ok now you are twisting his words(and the scummy goes to zipper). He is saying they don't. So DO NOT ask him why they do.
3. And what scum hunting have you done zipper? So far you have said oh he is scum, oh no he is scum. BUT THERE IS NO WAY HE IS SCUM!!" and all of that nothing adds up to you being scum.(active lurking IS a scum tell)
4. HYPOCRITE!!!! You just did exactly what you are yelling at other people for doing. Just go die scum.(I mean you already bussed your partner)
3. Up to that point, I had probed around with a few random votes, made some general comments, commented on who I thought was town/scum, and started probing my #1 suspect up to that point. I know you are trying to make it look like I was actively lurking, but you failed.
4. This is an outright lie. I suggest you go back and read this in context to exactly what I'm talking about.
Yeah, not random. If you're going to attack me at least get it right.Yay more random "let's start a wagon" votes. Dude that's not pro town D-2.
Explain why going after you top two suspect at the start of the day is anti-town.
Again, get your shit straight. At this point in time Jelly had never raised a finger to defend me. This is complete and utter ridiculousness.You are partners with jelly because he is chainsawing you, and yes you were busing him.Retired GM of Px2 - It's like a book club, but with bullets.

Katsuki, you have the brains of a cupcake.
How about actually pointing out why I am scum instead of just saying "Scummy as fuck"
I don't think you've posted anything substantial this whole game and now you are pushing a wagon without explaining why I'm a goods lynch.Retired GM of Px2 - It's like a book club, but with bullets.

Nope. Furcolow was squirming scum who got caught. I'm just aggravated because people keep calling me scum without backing up their words.Katsuki wrote:Now now, isn't this starting to resemble furcolow all over again?
So, until someone says something I can actually defend against I'm just going to join the crowd.
I have to give drmys some credit though, his case is crap, but at least he tried to back up his feelings.
Furcolow wanted people to stop attacking him. I, on the contrary, don't care to be attacked. All I ask is if you're going to attack me, then at least have the decency to back your shit up with some valid reasoning. I'm the target of a witch hunt, not a scum hunt, and I hope the town will remember it when I flip town.Retired GM of Px2 - It's like a book club, but with bullets.
