Yes I think it makes you scum. It's not a coherent thought process. Look at how much you rationalize your town read on Z-Boson from that claim:

Woah woah hold-up. I'm not liking how you're trusting this claim right away. Claiming miller is a pretty much a riskless play here. We don't know how many millers are in the setup, and as far as I'm concerned, the claim is null until Z-Bo proves otherwise. its what i think so whatever. Zbos scum is gone put himself out there like that i dont think so.
...then you abandon all of this because of the "iamperfection rule" or some shit like that?
I call BS.

Well duh it draws attention to himself if I call him out for it, but look at his line of thinking here - he basically completely sheeps BH and only adds the "iamperfection rule." Sheeping someone =/= drawing attention to yourself. It's the exact opposite in fact. don't be stupid. 1) iamp says miller claim is town 2) iamp votes for miller claim of course it's massively drawing attention to himself.
Yes it does draw attention to himself in retrospect, but did he intend to draw intention to himself? I think not. If you look at his vote post, he buries his little "qualification/alibi" sentence at the very end.

I know i said early on that i thought the miller claim was more of a town tell but well i think zbos actions speak louder.
But seriously, you don't question is motive at all here? He did a 180 based on BH's case that you yourself said was questionable at best. Sure iamperfection could have done other things here. But he didn't, and what he just did is scummy as shit.

The scum motive is in completely abandoning/forgetting a town read for shitty reasons when it's convenient for you to do so (BH's case on Z-Boson). Sure it would be smarter for a potential scum-iamperfection to stick to his story. But he didn't do that, and the alternative here is also scummy in it's own right, regardless of the attention he brought to himself.

@ Marv
I've seen you super critical of virtually every case brought forth so far with little to offer on your own. What's your top scumread atm?

The hell? BH makes a case, and once it gains traction, iamperfection jumps on it. That's the fucking definition of "convenient"

Oh whoops yeah you're right. Could've sworn someone else jumped on it before.
Still though, there's the fact that there was a case on Z-Bo and iamperfection showed no hesitancy to jump on it (despite it being questionable, as well as iamperfections previous read) is still super scummy to me. I want iamperfection to answer for it.
For all you're defending him so far, do you think he's town or is this more of a null thing to you?
|
Well I beg to differ marv. My mind is blown that you think that his actions so far are townie. MAYBE null. But town? Good lord.

Being right in a themed mini with aliases totes makes you right 100% of the time.

Again marv, I don't care what he could have done. We're not in his mind - we don't know what he's thinking. Therefore we have to look at what he did, and the contradiction makes no damn sense from a townie perspective. How the hell do you go from "insta-convinced claim = town" to "I agree with BH case, "iamperfeciton rule", Z-Bo is scum" if you're town. No way. NOOOOO way.

Again.
Going from INSTANT Z-bo = town because of claim.... To "that didn't matter", "iamperfection rule" is not a coherent line of suspicion.
I do not know how you are not seeing this.
But seeing how this is going nowhere fast, your current alternative is Blazinghand. What do you think of his recent posting/activity/whatnot in relation to the scumread?

Back from school - let's get to work:
Regarding iamperfection
Scumread still stands. I can't reconcile his thought-process at all.

Sure, we're not in his mind, but the job of a good townie is to PUT yourself in someone else's shoes and try to best work out how/what/why they're doing or have done things. And Hapa knows this too.

I hate to use this read again, but it seems accurate in the games I've played so far - he has this "I don't give a fuck" attitude towards suspicion against him.
Paired with how much effort I know he put into GSL I, I think he's town.
Puts himself in the shoes of a player who was outwardly playing scummily (lurking, not giving reads, etc.). And his read there is that he doesn't see scum Kei doing whatever he was doing. In this game though: Show nested quote +On November 14 2012 03:11 Hapahauli wrote: Again marv, I don't care what he could have done. We're not in his mind - we don't know what he's thinking. He's not willing to put the same thinking process into iamperfection, and this reeks, especially as my main argument in defence of iamperfection is why the fuck would he vote for Z-Bo of all people after his earlier town read on him. You have to think about what he could/should/would do and what iamp did there does not line up with how I see him playing scum, and for some reason Hapa does not address this. He gives some bad 'scum motive' but at the same time doesn't address anything at all with how iamp in particular was thinking at the time.
I am trying to put myself in iamperfection's shoes, but I simply can't understand how a townie could do a 180 like that. As for my quote that's "bugging" you, you're taking it out of context.
Perhaps I do a poor job of wording it, but my quote above refers to not considering alternative actions as analysis material. I'm saying "I'm not in his mind" in the sense that I don't know why he chose to do what he did, not because I'm unwilling to think from his perspective. Hell I still can't figure out why or how he did his 180 on Z-Bo.

So... you said your case on Darth wasn't working, then forced it anyway and voted him? This is pretty scummy, and you'd have my vote if it wasn't for iamperfection above.
Please explain this - it looks like you're forcing a case through for the sake of it rather than providing actual analysis.

Oh sniped by some cases on BH. I'll get to that in a bit.
I've always heard that BH's scum-play is notoriously bad, and he seems more fearless than I would expect from his "bad" scum play. I'll take a look at the cases, but that's my first impression of him anywho.

His rationale and motive make sense to me from a scum perspective - I've already mentioned that. Making a 180 when spurred by another case is scummy and convenient. I realize you disagree, but I think you're wrong.
And to draw comparisons to the read on Kei you mentioned in GSL III - I find imaperfection's actions alone much more scummy than Kei's actions in GSL III. Kei has a history of reluctant D1 play. Iamperfection doesn't have a history of these things in his town play to my knowledge.

I didn't find some "scum gem" in one of his posts and started from there. I had a gut feeling and when I looked into him I found nothing that makes him town or scum, and that's concerning to me.
I did provide analysis.
So you're suggesting that he's active lurking or something like that?

That's fair - didn't really understand your word-choice at first, but I can't blame ya for it

Well thanks for breaking the ice there marv. I'm a bit speechless myself.
My first impression is that this is the most needlessly reckless play ever for scum to do. Ever. On the other hand, the claim itself is such an overreaction to the suspicion on him. The former explanation seems more likely to me... but like damn dude...

Well BH isn't prplhz. Prplhz also fake-claimed vigi when we were both masons in Rockband.

Do you think this claim is just a random desperate scum act? I have a hard time believing so. Then again I wouldn't have expected a potentially town BH to do this either.

Either way his tunneling of me doesn't tell me anything about his alignment for the time being. However hapa eventually opens up in his decision making process if he is town. Hapa if your scum just continue to waste my time because it will become so clear that your scum. I did what i did you didnt like it tough for you. Either go cry in corner about it if your scum or find some actual scum.
@ iamp
Can you explain your thought process on Z-Bo to me because I just can't understand it. Why were you so initially convinced he was town based on his claim? Is the case you posted on him the only things you find scummy about him? I can't connect the dots.
|
@iamp
##Unvote
From your reactions so far, you're probably town. The "I don't give a fuck" thing has been on full display for the last few hours, and that meta read hasn't been wrong on you yet.
I also do like the post on Z-Bo, but I give him less townie points than you do. Z-Bo can push a read as either allignment, but I do agree he's being open so far.

Yeah I'm looking at Thrawn and Kickstart atm. Thrawn's inactivity is pretty uncharacteristic of him so far. Kickstart as well dumped some suspicion on me and then peace'd out. I'm a bit more forgiving to Kickstart though as a first-time player.
So let's get thrawn talking shall we?
##Vote Thrawn
(Would love to hear from kickstart too, but more concerned with Thrawn atm)
