On a more serious note, given that he's either lying scum OR actually a miller, there's no reason for a DT to check him-- whether he's lying or telling the truth the result is the same. | ||

If I'm a DT, I'm not going to check you. If I'm not a DT, I'm just going to ignore your claim for now and see whether or not you play like scum. You have a history of making claims at weird times as both town AND scum, so this doesn't tell me anything about your alignment. Your actions will. | ||

Lynching townies is game ending on lynch or lose situations. Lynching bad townies on ML is actually okay in my experience. Makes for better 3-way lynches. As for the framer part, you have a good point. Anyways, it seems no one agrees with me, which makes me feel like I'm tunneling, but my FoS is still VE. I'll leave it at that, and won't press it, until I see another scumslip from him. ' *whoosh* ^-- the sound of my quote going over your head. Let me try this again, maybe you'll understand this time.

My #1 goal is lynching scum. I don't lynch townies, I don't lynch "for information" and I certainly don't aim specifically at "retarded town". If town players happen to die as we lynch down the list of scummiest players, so be it-- but we must try to avoid lynching town as much as possible. If we lynch town, don't be happy, be solemn. Maybe be mad at him for playing like scum. | ||

On June 05 2012 08:34 furerkip wrote: Okay, I have a question for all of you: Under what evidence should we lynch people, if not for scumslips? You lynch people off of scummy play. Town players tend to promote activity and interactions, and overall pressure people and provide analysis. Scum players literally cannot play as town as town players, because they know who scum is, they must play differently-- scummily. There are some scumslips that only scum can make, but most of what are considered "scumslips" are things that are done equally often by town and scum. A classic example of this was during one of my games (I think it was LI) I referred to the town as "you guys" when I was a VT. A major scumslip. The fact of the matter is, looking for little slips of the tongue or word might be helpful, but it might also lead you to bark up the wrong tree just as often. Behavioral analysis is much better. | ||

The accusations to me are "BH isn't hunting scum or pressuring anyone" which... well, it's actually true. I haven't been hunting scum or pressuring anyone. Although I personally know I'm town, I could see how you could make that meta argument (though you'll note that since my ban I haven't been swearing in games though so don't expect any of that.). The only way for me to exonerate myself is to find scum, so I'm gonna go do that. Or would you rather I waste everyone's time arguing about whether or not I should have been hunting scum during the first few posts in the game? I'm gonna go hunt scum. You've already voted for me, there's nothing more you can do to hurt me. | ||

This coupled with the fact that he thinks Furerkip is scum makes me suspicious. Isn't that interesting? G_403 and you both seem to be very unsure of yourselves reading VE and myself. Still, the Ghost waffling case is all very reasonable, not counting the fact that you've said the same thing: On June 06 2012 05:00 MrZentor wrote: I can't wait for him to try to make some of Furer's posts look scummy. ##Vote: ghost_403 What G_403 says here is null. Although there are scum who do this to delay, there are town players who say this before going to bed or whatever. MrZ quotes it like it's some sort of evidence then says "I can't wait" as though that's analysis, but don't be tricked! It's not! You see, leading up to this moment, Pandain and VE both pressured MrZ, and VE put a vote on G403: + Show Spoiler + On June 06 2012 01:30 Pandain wrote: I think Mr. Zentor is very suspicious, and should be looked at instead. He's offered very weak arguments, suggesting he does not want to force his opinion onto the town.

I'd really like to hear more from MrZentor though, as he seemed cautious even before the game started (asking wbg if he could be in the game, etc.) And of course MrZ doesn't have the balls to go after me. His natural response is to attack the guy who's got votes and FoSes on him, and try to dig up some vaguely scummy statements (That he himself has also made). "Now, perhaps G_403 is scum" Have you ever played with G_403? Here's a typical post of his from LI: On April 22 2012 08:46 ghost_403 wrote: @paq: Why do you care so much what I think about you?

Pending the results of his usefulness, I think I'm not disinclined to lynching Marv today. He's always like this. His scum meta is to lurk a lot: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=309405&user=104946 G_403 is just being typical G_403 and MrZ had pressure on him and looked for an easy vote, which he thought would be G_403 and not me.

I'm about to go back and find which is the truth, but I'd like to hear your thoughts on Katina if you please BH. I'd say that Katina's probably town. Katina typically doesn't put any effort into Mafia games as scum LIV But as town, is more aggressive and makes cases like this: (Liar Game Case). Contrast Katina's case in MtG as scum: (link) in which Katina just reiterates other points people have already made, and is slightly wishy-washy about it as well. The aggressive case against me indicates that this is more of Katina's town meta than scum meta, imo. All this of course pending further posting. | ||

(Hyaach seems to be a lot like furerkip, a bit anti town but not scummy.) In summary, he votes for somebody who isn't really suspicious, just so he himself doesn't look suspicious. Guilty much? Which seems like a pretty aggressive case compared to his relatively mild G_403 case. And On June 06 2012 05:51 Navillus wrote: Now looking at the votes on him I get suspicious, VE's vote which is now moved was very fast and didn't go on much, he basically read a couple of posts where artanis points this stuff out and says his meta is different and jumps on. This is suspicious but even more FOS: Mr.Zentor he has a couple posts about VE that don't indicate much then his first post where he says something solid is him jumping on ghost for 1. admitting that he is bad at reading VE which makes no sense and 2. for not following up on furer which I've mentioned. It just looks like Zentor isn't trying to talk about reads or cases, he just wanted to jump in and vote someone people were already suspicious of Which seems like a pretty aggressive case compared to his relatively mild Hyaach case. This looks to me like 2 players who seem interested in making cases at each other without voting each other. Which is scummy. Distancing is a typical scum tactic. Also: On June 06 2012 06:14 MrZentor wrote: I voted for ghost, because he's the most suspicious person. Whether or not other people also think he's scummy is irrelevant. This is so bad I'm not even sure it's scummy. Like, whether or not people think someone is scummy is super relevant. If you think ghost is scum, you should make a really good case and convince everyone he's scummy. You can't lynch him unless other people also think he's scummy. It's like the most relevant thing in the world, and it's kinda the reason you make a case along with your vote. | ||

I mean, not that I mind - but I DO kinda miss the fun-loving Paint-slinging BH of old. I understand the bit about you toning down your language, but that doesn't account for the other nuances that made you such a joy to play with...what gives bro? If you check my most recent games you'll notice this was the case there as well. After getting banned from iGrok's game I decided to rethink my overly aggressive gif/mspaint posting style in which I called people shitty dicks. | ||
