Lastly I just want to say my vote wouldn't have changed despite the convincing desperation. I thought Gladus was scum, not dim, still do and I'm going to go in depth about it soon if you'd just give me a bit of time to finish.

Theres an hour in between my posts, it was 8ish when I rushed my vote, I didn't vote to establish a majority I voted for the person I found suspicious, I left to go eat. Also I've been awake all day pretty much, I just haven't posted. I voted at 8ish left to go eat dinner with my family, came back and read the results. Also are you actually mad at me for not voting for a townie? Or do you think I wanted to look as if I was right about not voting for the townie ?



Simply wanted to clarify for why you were missing during the lynch. I dont think that you wanted to look as if you were right about not voting a townie, but am simply curious as to why you were gone and just wanted to pressure you to see your reaction.

Damn.
I stand by my play though, I think the reads were pretty clearly scum.

Reminder: When you are being accused, STAY ACTIVE, the more you give us the more we can find out about you. If you are town and you stay active generally this will be identified.


I think everyone needs to focus on the hour running up to the vote. There was a lot of action and activity that probably didn't get %100 attention. I'm to check out the voting records, specifically the correlation between who came off of MG and ET and on what basis.

Alright, having reread some stuff after the flip,

Alderan was the first to put up a case for DDimmuKlok and stuck on him.

Can someone please explain this sentiment? Am I missing something?

To my case he responded:

"I'm new, I'm new, I don't understand your case, I'm new."

His play after my case:

"I'm still on my gumshoe wagon, I don't know what to think about Midnight, I don't know what I think about Hawkin and Manner, and I'm too tired to give an opinion on Steveling"


If someone can please point me to the direction of pro town play I would greatly appreciate it.



And he is another player posting his inability to read Midnight and some weak calls.




Janaan was willing to switch to Ech from Dimmu to try to guarantee a lynch even though he said he didn't think Ech was scum.

At this point, it's looking like the lynch will be either Echelon or a no-lynch. I am still undecided as to which I prefer. On the one hand, I'm not really getting a scum read from Echelon, just a aggressive townie. On the other, we need information. I am usually in favor of lynching, since it provides information that is unavailable any other way. If there's a no lynch, the voting record is almost entirely useless for the day. For now, I'll vote. I just hope that it's not a huge mistake.

##Unvote: DimmuKlok
##Vote: EchelonTee


But then he switches back to Dimmu and gets the bandwagon going on Dimmu started again. The reason he voted for Ech was because he didn't want a nolynch day one. Then he changes his mind and votes for a target he thinks will cause a nolynch.

Yeah, I think after thinking about it for a bit longer, I really don't get scummy feelings from you at all, and I haven't since the game began. As SlOosh reminded me, lynching people you don't think mafia is not a good idea. Now I just need to decide who to actually vote for...


##Unvote: EchelonTee

It seems that I'm the only one not voting atm. It really looks like unless something very drastic happens, we're gonna end up with a no-lynch. Of the cases presented, probably the one that made me think most was SlOosh's case against DoYouHas, but I'm still not ready to vote for him.

As for the case against MidnightGladius, I understand where Echelon is coming from, but I have slightly different opinions on Midnight.

I think I have to stick with my original read at this time, as much as I don't really want a no-lynch Day 1.

##Vote: DimmuKlok


He's willing to vote for somebody he doesn't think is town to guarantee a lynch, but then vote for somebody he thinks is scum to force a nolynch because it was his original read. Not only that, the reason he gave for changing his vote "I don't get a scummy feeling from you at all" is bogus. Janaan didn't have scummy feelings from Ech when voted for him. He already balanced the we need info vs. I don't want to lynch people I think are town in his head.

Gah, just realised why that lynch was dumb, which is silly because I figured it last night. Before the last rush, the distribution of the votes and the active player count meant that it was essentially impossible to lynch scum. The correct choice was to no-lynch.

Off to flagellate myself and then sleep. We do the 20-hour dummy voting run on day 2.

I'm not surprised that I got called out on that, honestly. Let me walk you through my train of thought as best as I can.

Orgininally, I had voted on DimmuKlok. He was what I thought at the time to be a decent scum read.
When I first looked at the thread today, I noticed that there were only two people with any decent number of votes on them: Mignight with 4 I think, and Echelon with 5. Reading through what everyone was saying, it seemed like no one voting for one would be likely to switch to the other, and we were hurtleing toward a no-vote. I have always gotten the impression from reading guides and previous games that a no-lynch was almost never good for the town. It seems, judging from other players' reactions as we neared the vote deadline, that I'm not the only one who was thinking this. At this point, I made a fairly quick, impulsive decision that to try to guarantee a lynch I'd have to switch to the one with the most votes, so I voted Echelon.

Now, as you pointed out, I didn't actually think Echelon was scum. When SlOosh posted, asking me to read his post, and warning me against voting to lynch someone that I had a town read on, it kinda made me think a little harder about my vote than I did previously. I probably should have thought the vote through 100% previously, but I didn't. I read through the cases against Echelon. I read Echelon's filter. I read Echelon's responses to the accusations after he posted them. The conclusion I came to was that I didn't want Echelon to get lynched, so I unvoted, and began seriously looking at the other possible lynch targets.

At the point when I unvoted Echelon, the only player with a decent number of votes was Midnight. Again, I read the cases against him specifically, and the cases against others (DoYouHas's case of SlOosh, SlOosh's case of DoYouHas, etc) and I didn't really find any of them more compelling than my own original read on DimmuKlok. So, since I had to vote, DimmuKlok it was.

I honestly didn't expect this to end with a lynch. Now, you ask, why was I ok with this? Because, after going over the posts in my head, I decided that I'd rather have a no-lynch than lynch someone that I really didn't think would flip red. Do you disagree with this? If you were in my position, would you really have let someone that you really thought wasn' scum get lynched?

Without going through an entire filter, the notes I have taken lead me to this:

He came out of the gates getting in a multi page argument with Sloosh, later to be dropped because he felt that Sloosh was not actually scum, only to end up hardline voting on Sloosh even when the town was in danger of not getting a lynch.

Any analysis about that vote though is going to WIFOM, so I say this his play been suspicious but not enough to lynch yet, I'm glad it didn't happen today. I think we definitely should take a closer look though.

I just got home. I barely made it to be in time of the lynch before I went out.

Dimmu could have been played better though.

I'm going to bed now. Tomorrow I'll post my thoughts. I too tired now. I did a bit of reading though.
Sorry If I appear lurkish to you. I'll do my best. See you in some hours.

EchelonTee:

1. My first post in NMM3 responded to other posts because other people had posted. In this game, I was the second poster, concurrent with DYH. Your allegation is baseless.

2. Our posting styles are different. You dislike mine, and I dislike yours. Fine. What specifically have I not contributed to? What topics have I failed to address? What questions have I failed to answer?

3. I was referring to FP's terrible use of statistics (saying that 30% chance on a random lynch was good), not the fact that he was green. Anyone trying to use bad reasoning is anti-town in my eyes.

4. jaj22 has no valid case on me. If he did, he would be presenting one. I don't see it. Do you? Don't push him into taking shots at me that he clearly isn't willing to take.

5. gumshoe and I had been the only ones going back and forth for quite some time. He asked me some questions, I answered them, and suggested that we both back off for a bit to cool down and sleep on our thoughts. I happen to think that my reasoning is good, and you still haven't convinced me otherwise. If you think that I'm completely and utterly scummy, then you really need to take a step back and fully re-evaluate the claims that you're making and the evidence from which you're making them.


1. You could have said more, still. Perhaps you hadn't seen DYH's post yet, but still, considering how meaty your post was the other game, this one looks strange in comparison. In your previous game, there were only really 2-3 substantive posts to yours, so the difference is not solely because of that.

2. I don't dislike your play; I respect your play tbh. I just think you're being scummy this game. Our posting styles are not substantially different. We post fairly long at times, shorter when having direct conversation. What I don't like is that you are honing in on people that I, and others, have noted to be noobier players who are not inherently scummy. There have been a lot of other people posting in the thread that you could easily be suspicious of, but you pick the reads that take the least work. You haven't generated NEW content, which is why I say you are not contributing. I really don't like that you're trying to define this as myself simply disliking your posting style. You're avoiding the fact that you haven't really been contributing.

3. People trying to use bad reasoning is anti town, yes. However, you used this as justification to vote gumshoe. The fact that FakePromise was green is damning for you; I know that you didn't use the fact that FP was green, I am the one who is using that. If you know that nooby and anti-town=/=scum, you shouldn't have voted gumshoe. I don't see how you can deny this. The facts are laid out. This is not at all a loose point, as you claim my case is.

4. If jaj does not want to pursue you then w.e. His original case, I liked.

5. your back and forth only lasted for about 1-2 pages, 2-3 posts each. You really didn't go on and on about it that much, and haven't presented much reasoning other than "acting obviously anti-town". This is a newbie game, you realize. I don't expect all townies to be pro-town.


Can other people look at my #2 and #3 and honestly say that my case is baseless?


@gumshoe, I'd advise you slow down your posting and try to be more coherent; activity is good, but you're starting to fill up the thread unnecessarily with a LOT of randomness. Analytical posts by other people have been buried. Just post when you've consolidated your thoughts.

Holy Moses just woke up and read the day post. Q_Q

GG Dimmu and gl next game, (.


Ok, I see that noone followed me on Gumshoe only to see that he went afk literally minutes before the deadline without changing vote. Yet I see that you guys still are
a)not convinced that he's scum
b)believe that although he plays anti-town you don't want him gone.

So I'm gonna drop my vote off of him as well. To avoid no majority situations like last day.

Expect some analysis during this night from me.

Ok, I am home and I am caught up. Seems I have a lot to respond to.

Before I go back and get into a point by point defense I want to respond to a couple things. I was unwilling to vote for ANY of the 3 most likely candidates simply because we NEED to lynch someone. And as for switching to a lurker when a better case isn't available (which is what I first espoused), Mannerkiss has been replaced which most commonly happens to townies, so I was not going to vote him. TKHawkins was another lurker I was uncomfortable voting for, same as blae000 and Dimmuklok. So that took switching my vote to a lurker off the table. What does that leave me? To follow my own case and stick with it, even if it means a no-lynch. I was put in the position of either voting for people I thought were likely to flip town, or voting based on my own suspicions even if they didn't help the majority.

As for zelblade's repeated accusation that the line "Find the majority without me" is nonchalant and that I'm treating my vote as if I didn't care about it is crap. There is nothing nonchalant about that statement. I was being pointedly stubborn towards slOosh who was trying to get my to change my vote off him for the sake of the majority. I put my vote where my suspicions were, there is nothing clearer than that.
