Ok then let's just do this.

Vote: glg

As much as I contemplate, this path makes the most sense to me. I think a lot revolves around glg. But X1 I don't think Air is glg's scum buddy. And I don't see Swiss either. EP or Incom is more likely, based on the interactions between them. As what you have already said about EP. And Incom's super weird bus-but trying to keep him alive type vote.

I love it when my internet cuts out in the middle of a long post. Luckily, I had the foresight (at the last moment) to save it to a text file. :awesome:

Swiss - Possibly Incom. After looking back at this post I think I'm going to put him back on my suspicion list.


I don't see the point in saying this really. It sounds like he's being overly cautious with his actions. Later below when he does vote him he mentions that no one should hammer. I don't see why he'd put a vote on him for literally hardly any reason (very poor reasons imo) besides opinions of the people that he's replaced and then tells no one to hammer...
Nobody is to hammer because I don't want the day to end early. What is it that people don't understand about that?

Also:
X: The sky is blue!
Incom: Yeah, I can agree with that.
Y: U BANDWAGONING BRO

versus

X: The sky is blue!
Incom: *ignores*
Y: U NONCOMMITTAL BRO

That's hyperbole of course, but basically I'm trying to mock that I have seemingly no way out except to shout "The sky is orange!" or whatever.
I really don't like this post. To me, it looks like a really desperate attempt to look town. I feel as though it's waaayyyy overdoing it.
Being at L-1 is a ton of pressure to be under, town or scum. I had already thought BSL/Xas was scum, therefore GLG by definition could only be scum. When someone replaces in, they're still holding the same slot as the person before them. Usually I give them the benefit of the doubt for a brief time, but you can't really automatically forgive someone for everything as soon as they're replaced. GLG has been playing much better (case against Air).

You and I both know that I'm not saying you aren't allowed to agree with people. I'm saying agreeing with people is all you are doing, ie you don't put any aggresion into any of your own cases, you just try to agree with others as much as possible. It's fine to agree, but to do nothing but agree, is what I find you did most of the game.
Cello says hi. (Okay, I did retreat on that one, but I thought I made it clear why.) This convo says hi.

Also: http://www.smashboards.com/search.php?searchid=3995320&pp=40
Searched your posts. Much of your pressure this game has been on me. Not all of it--you've done some things with Swiss and GLG, and assorted single comments towards other players. I count six posts that are pressure on me (out of 27--about one in 4.5), along with some other offhand "X, I agree that Incom is scum" lines. I'd compare with other players, but this post is taking too long already.

http://www.smashboards.com/search.php?searchid=3995357&pp=53
Searched my posts. Up until the last few (realtime) days, you may have had a point. I spent most of my time on the defensive. A lot of that could be explained as some combo of noobcard, trying to deflect early pressure, and reaching into the dark trying to find something.
If you feel like his IRL situation might be different and you don't want to push him if he's busy IRL, I don't understand why you said "Im gonna re read the thread, if I can do it, surely BSL can" Why make that comment if you don't feel he should be pressured for his IRL situation? You are right that this issue isn't a big deal, I'm not gonna say you are scum because of this, it's a really small reason compared to everything else, but as part of my case I wanted to include every little thing that contributed to my read on you, and that did contribute a little. I find that scum often pressure someone but then give them a way out when they do it, ie offer answers or excuses for the person they pressure, so I saw that as a very slight scumtell, as in you wanted to look like you were pressuring his inactivity but at the same time say it was not a big deal, I see it as you wanting to have it both ways. So yes I'm seriously adding this to my pressure on you, I don't see the problem with that.
I see where you're coming from. I do want to point out that Swiss did something early on to DH that was similar to what you are describing (pressure + way out), after luring out DH's QT. See post #46. You did not react to it.
Also, on the Swiss issue, gotcha. That's reasonable enough.
Cool.
While some of your answers are satisfying to me, I don't like that you pass off my case on you as off and then give the reason of me being scum trying to pass it off as pressure. Just seems a bit like you are trying to reflect the pressure I put on you by discrediting/reflecting it back onto me, and for this I feel you to be the play for the day, and a much better play than GLG.
You missed one point re: Cello.

I explained this in the post above. Also, both BSL and SOLID were my scum reads along with Cello, and a scum lynch is a scum lynch (unless you can confirm one has a scum PR). Honestly, if I'd been present when Cello told X1/you to hammer, I'd have unvoted due to the same quicklynch logic from D1 and that I used against Swiss D2.
@Zen: Can I get a quick clarification?
I agree with Incom. I really don't like his last couple of posts.
You agree with Air about me (not liking me) or you agree with me (not liking EP)?

Zen whats your reason?
Zen#362 said:
I don't think that you and xastern is SvS. He had major buddying with you D1, and I don't think scum would buddy their partner like that especially just to bus them D2. So if one of you flips scum, I'll be more comfortable with the other. Putting out SvS, there is still SvT and TvT (and IvT/S). Right now I'm leaning towards of at least one of you being scum. Xastern is looking a bit more suspicious but I feel like I'm being mindgamed by you.

-Both you and Xastern pushed the DH wagon hard.

-Xastern buddied you hard D1. -Begins D2 declaring you the obvious choice.
-Has only really made connections with a few people.
The main reasons why I felt Xas to be scum. And why I still feel you are scum. I don't think Swiss is scum. He thinks he can't be meta'd but I think I'm right about this. I don't think he would have played the way he did D1 and took such aggressive control over everything. And except from some occasions it really looks as if he is actually trying to catch scum rather than just stick a vote on someone and babble the rest of the day as I have usually seen him. And as I have said, I don't think Air is scum either. the only thing I dislike about him is his inactivity and having to be forced to take stances a lot of the time. But when he does take stances I like what he says. And I don't think he is anything like the scum Air I have seen.

Therefore I disagree with both of your lynch choices.

I think that scum are between you, EP, and Incom or that X1 and Swiss are scumbudies. But I'm pretty much ingoring the latter based on my gut read on Swiss and X1 as well. And Swiss not quick hammering just now furthers my town view of him. So I think by lynching the three of you and perhaps a cop investigation we can win this game.

Right now I'm thinking you-Incom or you-EP. But you in both cases. Which is another reason why I prefer to lynch you over the other two toDay.

Where are you getting this? If you're town you shouldn't over speculate on trying to appear townie. Just be and let be. It's when a townie plays overly cautious that they seem scummy. As scum are the people who should be playing overly cautious. So if you are town, just play the game. Don't do scummy **** yeah, but you don't need to play overly cautious of what you do. But I could see this coming from a town pov.

And if you didn't want to end the day, there was no need for you to vote with L - 2 this late in the game. It really looks like you were just trying to be on the wagon to me.

Maybe you have more experience than me but have you ever played with Swiss town? I noticed the huge playstyle diff with him d1 too but I've been forced to consider it a nulltell because I haven't experienced his town play. r there actually completed games where he was aggressive early when he was town? otherwise I don't see this as being good meta.

Don't get mad - get Swiss
Gawdddddddddddddddddddddddddd

I go mad aggressive when I want. Anytime, any alignment. Go check super uber controlling pro town swiss d1 in Oddworld where I was scum. Srsly I rage everytime people try and meta me it's always wrong. Don't think me doing what I did D1 is a town tell ffs. You're right that I'm town here but I see this all over decisive games and I rage so hard to see meta applied so broadly and badly. One of you guys (this game??) tried to clear me as town because I wasn't posting in my troll stylee. Then in another game I don't post in my troll stylee and one of you call me suspicious for it. I'm raging so hard right now. I don't mind being called scum, I don't mind being called town. But I hate being called an alignment for the wrong reasoning.

Swiss you know I'm not just going by your style. I tried that already. But I still think I'm right. Not sure why you're trying to convince me otherwise. Maybe you should put that energy elsewhere, yeah :p?

EP: I was scum with Swiss twice, and I know how he works. But I mentioned more than just speculation. And, incom is right. Looking through your posts, you haven't really targeted anyone but Incom. I don't necessarily disagree with your points, but are you seriously not willing to lynch anyone else? Why do I feel like you and glg have a magnetic repulsion shield.

Swiss: " I want to hear from 3 townies, Zen, Incom and X1"

Swiss: "Oh wait I just remembered I'm calling X1 scum atm"

****.

Someone unvote. We need EP and Incom to post. GLG can self hammer to stop us co-ordinating PR's and getting firm stances from those two. He knows he's dead anyway. Zen I saw you online not 5 minutes ago. UNVOTE.

IMO, time is better for town than it is for scum. (Math time!)

Hypothetical scenario:
48hour phases.
Town can communicate 50% of the time. Scum can communicate 100% of the time due to the QT (if I'm understanding the rules correctly).

Another hypothetical scenario:
72hour Day phase, 48hour Night phase.
Town can communicate 60% of the time. Scum still gets to communicate 100% of the time.

One more for the road:
90hour Day phase, 10hour Night phase.
Town can communicate 90% of the time. Scum still gets to communicate 100% of the time.

tl;dr version: The shorter the Day relative to the Night, the more disproportionately influential the scum QT is. Therefore, long Days and short Nights are good for town, and short Days and long Nights better for scum.

(Somebody correct me if my math or understanding of the rules is wrong.)

Also, EP still hasn't answered my stuff despite having been in this thread twice since I last posted.

Incom, although that is a lovely time chart, do you happen to have any thoughts on anything else?

I'd like to know why you didn't unvote. Call me curious.

@Swiss: Come to think of it, wouldn't GLG have self-hammered right there if he was going to? Or am I WIFOMing myself?

@X1: you have a point I guess.

Unvote Vote: EP

I almost called you PM o.o
I am willing to lynch Swiss and Incom, would prefer incom by a wide margin, willing to settle for Swiss as well. Also to avoid a no lynch I'd even settle for air, but I feel GLG, X1, and you are town, those are the people I wouldn't be willing to lynch at all. I am against lynching GLG for reasons stated 3-4x already, but no one is listening to me.

By the way I viewed this thread a couple of times because I do a lot of my posting at work and I don't always have time to post even though I"m reading to keep up. I just got home from a day of work plus I have 3 hours of japanese class on wednesdays and I get off at 10pm, so when class is busy I barely have a chance to post even from my phone.

@incom I believe I already answered any questions you had. If there's something I missed let me know, but I thought I covered it all. The only other thing I can see you waiting for me to comment on is the thing about your stance on Cello. I still stand by my original point - you say you had scum reads on BSL and Cello, but I stand by the fact that, while your explanation for switching your votes on not staying on them makes some reasonable sense for a townie to do, I don't really buy it as you switching your vote to vote on scum, to me it seemed like the vote switch was way too influenced by the opinions of vocal people like Cello and Swiss in order to be part of the crowed/avoid being wrong. It's the repetition of the actions plus everything else you've done that makes me scrutinize it more, not so much the standalone act itself.

@Zen and I quoted the 'almost called you PM" thing because I meant to comment on it, somehow forgot to. Anyway, I'll gladly accept that nickname if you do call me it =D
