Serious question.
I don't really like that you deflected to your position on this site instead of addressing your absence from early game.Gonna borrow again.

Stop tell me that me doing my job is bull****.
This is crap.
I can take your word but I need your action to back it up! You read null to me and for some reason I want you not to be null. Can you give me some reads, such as ones on EBR and Soup, since you made such a big deal about them earlier?@WL, I don't know. You were the one who was like "I can trust you right?" and I was like "Yeah! I'll be your bro!"
It's true that I didn't go into exact detail of why I thought he was townier at that point, because I didn't need to. You think I'm buddying him for saying he's looked townier? Are you really that concerned with my read on WL changing?
**** gut reads.Asidoh said:
...the same thing IR said, huh? My intention wasn't to buddy you, sorry. The point I was trying to get at is that you don't deserve my vote anymore.
Gova has a number of posts but I can remember no stances or votes from him, which is either due to my short memory, or due to an actual lack of stances.
No, we think you are buddying him for switching your vote to us because he told you to.It's true that I didn't go into exact detail of why I thought he was townier at that point, because I didn't need to. You think I'm buddying him for saying he's looked townier? Are you really that concerned with my read on WL changing?
Is there a better reaction? Your case is **** and you know it. It's better just completely not to acknowledge it.Parr- ..
It does worry me that you react in the exact same way riddlepoo does though.
**** gut reads, if your gut read on someone is "scum" and you're going to charge in trying to lynch them at all costs. If your gut read is "town" then is there a problem with looking elsewhere? I mean, my read on you could change, but I've continued liking what I've seen from you, it looks like legitimate thought process and scumhunting to me, and nobody but GLG seems to think you're scum.**** gut reads.
Oh, ok. I did list you as null leaning scum prior to that, though.No, we think you are buddying him for switching your vote to us because he told you to.
Look up the post. "Keep up the good work, WL." Also subtle buddying with me? I'm not impressed, IR.I guess this is a good time to further explain my vote on Asdioh. The latter part of his #167 is really gross. Asdioh placing his vote on me seems more like he was doing it to appeal to WL rather than actually having a scumread on myself.
More on Asdioh later.
is straight up bull****.but then now you get on soup's case for not answering your question tl;dr I don't get you.
That line was moreso supposed to be a subtle hint that I understood why you didn't answer my question, but I can see why it can be seen as buddying.Look up the post. "Keep up the good work, WL." Also subtle buddying with me? I'm not impressed, IR.
"WL, keep up the good work."WL, keep up the good work.
Gord, why do I need a wagon over anyone else?
Asdioh u so scum y, trying to appeal to WL by switching your vote?
unvote
Vote: Asdioh
Dork, please try to get the vote counts correct, JTB is not voting for WL.
I don't get you.That line was moreso supposed to be a subtle hint that I understood why you didn't answer my question, but I can see why it can be seen as buddying.
Honestly I feel like 235 is complete and udder cow poop. The whole "I didn't answer his question so that other people would give out their read" I don't feel is a legit excuse to not answer a question directly phrased at you.
Asdioh.AA, imagine that I wasn't in this game. If you had to kill one player right now, who would it be?
I suppose you could see it as reaching, but I thought that you would say something after pursuing and defending your decision to pursue it for so long. Did you just want to drop the topic after noticing how insubstantial the results (and your pursuit) were? Do you actually have anything on that slot from what Bardull posted about his previous games?Bolded is the reaching that I'm referring to.
You think you can gather this info from what he has given you? You have SMBRPG mafia public for town so what about the ones you can't see?I answered your question in the post you quoted?
I said I was busy earlier, I said it briefly however.I don't really like that you deflected to your position on this site instead of addressing your absence from early game.
No, your basis on WL is nothing but a gut read. No logical progression to it, there is no basis other than you feel like it. That doesn't fly with me, what has he done that makes him scum in this game before? And now your changing your mind on him quickly, even using what others think as reasoning?**** gut reads, if your gut read on someone is "scum" and you're going to charge in trying to lynch them at all costs. If your gut read is "town" then is there a problem with looking elsewhere?

Oh, ok. I did list you as null leaning scum prior to that, though.
IR, what are your thoughts on Gova?
You don't feel it is a legit excuse. Why?Honestly I feel like 235 is complete and udder cow poop. The whole "I didn't answer his question so that other people would give out their read" I don't feel is a legit excuse to not answer a question directly phrased at you.
I'm leaning null towards EBR at the moment.
She got me to understand her lack of IR scum read, for the most part. I'm sure there was other shiz but I'm really tired. If you want me to elaborate I will when I get back on.Gova said:@Gord, can you explain how July's 245 or whatever is good posting? I mean specifcally what do you agree about it and whatnot.
What an inane accusation. How can you tell that it *ultimately* led nowhere? You act like JTB was supposed to know that Bardull would replace out of the game. And even if he didn't replace out I already explained how the knowledge could be useful. Now let me ask you this: if you say that obtaining meta-knowledge on a new player is useless [which I assume you're implying, otherwise you wouldn't have an issue with JTB asking about it] how is that a bigger problem than EBR asking Soup whether or not he knows the flavor? That's something that leads nowhere, wouldn't you agree with that? Hell, he directly asked you whether you're town or not and unless he earnestly expects you to answer the question with "no" then it's pretty feasible that this question would lead nowhere as well.IR's early play was pretty bad. Pursuit of Bardull meta was silly and ultimately led nowhere.
Care to elaborate on that opinion then? How is neither "particularly good"? I am part of this player-slot - am I supposed to twiddle thumbs while people grilling the living hell out of JTB for something so silly? What's wrong with me speaking in defense of my own player slot? [These are not rhetorical questions fyi]I also don't like how ghebhead is (consciously or not) covering for the bad play by pushing it all onto JTB ('I don't get the case on JTB', 'JTB was getting a bit concerned', etc). Someone mentioned he was 'deflecting'? Somebody else said he was 'defending'. Neither is particularly good imo.
Hmm...even if you misunderstood me, what you say does not really scream scum to me. I didn't say the act of pursuing meta was questionable, I had thought your slot's early game play involved pursuit of meta and little else in the way of productivity. Even so, I suppose you bring up a reasonable point, and re-reading shows me that the only truly questionable post was the nyantroll one, which was unbidden.What an inane accusation. How can you tell that it *ultimately* led nowhere? You act like JTB was supposed to know that Bardull would replace out of the game. And even if he didn't replace out I already explained how the knowledge could be useful.

That's something that leads nowhere, wouldn't you agree with that? Hell, he directly asked you whether you're town or not and unless he earnestly expects you to answer the question with "no" then it's pretty feasible that this question would lead nowhere as well.
See above, it was your lack of non-Bardull-meta activity, not the act itself. Ignored this point because it isn't related to what I found questionable.Once again I'd like to re-emphasize the point [which was completely ignored] that there would have been absolutely no issue had you just let Bardull answer the question and get it over with. We would've gotten the information we asked for, which could've helped us understanding how he'd act under pressure as the pretended [or not] newbie.
Did not say game was leading nowhere, please don't put words in my mouth. The only possible interpretation you could have is that you believe you are leading town or something, and that's not right.But since you already tackled it: If you believe that this game has been led nowhere, wouldn't you agree with what I just said above? Because if you look a bit more closely at what's happening it's *certainly* not JTB's request on meta-data that led this game nowhere but EBR stubbornly pursuing the point as if there was a problem with it. If this game truly has been lead nowhere, I think that's pretty strong evidence that EBR's has indeed pushing a null-tell.
I'll give you that last point, but I feel that anytime you have to deflect or defend, it's because there are potentially scummy aspects of play, not 'bad' aspects of play. Why else would you defend if it could be written off purely as lack of skill? Deflecting is basically pushing scummy or poor play onto the other head to imply the slot is actually town. Obviously there is something that can be judged as scummy by somebody. Regardless, this is debating general actions and not your slot's play, so I'll let it rest. I'm not criticising your defence of your slot, it's the fact you had to do it to begin with which is troubling. I suppose some of that could be attributed to people on your wagon, myself included...Care to elaborate on that opinion then? How is neither "particularly good"? I am part of this player-slot - am I supposed to twiddle thumbs while people grilling the living hell out of JTB for something so silly?

Of course I am going to cover for the bad aspects of his play, you act like I'm not supposed to do that. The problem is that most of you aren't willing to look beyond that to see what's actually *scummy* play and what not.
I agree with this, and to be frank i don't even think asdioh is scummy, hell, not even sure if i like my vote on IR right now, i did like his response too.**** gut reads, if your gut read on someone is "scum" and you're going to charge in trying to lynch them at all costs. If your gut read is "town" then is there a problem with looking elsewhere? I mean, my read on you could change, but I've continued liking what I've seen from you, it looks like legitimate thought process and scumhunting to me, and nobody but GLG seems to think you're scum.
explain yourselfSoup said:his suspiscion of WL and Asdioh are warranted in their own way,
Can you clarify what you mean by this line, and what about this adds to your scum read on Asdioh?Scumpick is IR. Leaning scum is Asdioh. Nothing dead-set.
IR's early play was pretty bad. Pursuit of Bardull meta was silly and ultimately led nowhere. I also don't like how ghebhead is (consciously or not) covering for the bad play by pushing it all onto JTB ('I don't get the case on JTB', 'JTB was getting a bit concerned', etc). Someone mentioned he was 'deflecting'? Somebody else said he was 'defending'. Neither is particularly good imo. Granted, his recent play is much better than his early stuff and I think somebody said JTB sometimes acts scummy early on, but I'm still not convinced.
Asdioh has done nothing but defend his bad vibe read at the beginning. Lack of proactivity. Oh, and he poked Gova a couple times.
I also want Gova to start talking.
Can you be specific about what you liked about his responses?I agree with this, and to be frank i don't even think asdioh is scummy, hell, not even sure if i like my vote on IR right now, i did like his response too.
what to do..
what to do..
unvote
taking a re-read, i'll give some insight when i get back.
GLG's #295 gives me the feeling that he is simply complacent in his scum reads, but not particularly scummy. His suspicions of WL are difficult for me to follow, but he seems to believe that he has found scummy behavior from WL and is content with that and his vote on him.GLG is an odd character, but i don't think he's scummy, his suspiscion of WL and Asdioh are warranted in their own way, guess my only problem with him is that he's not posting as much, but that's nothing.
I'm still wary of July, something isn't sitting right with me with her this game and i need to figure it out or make a case.
on the subject of july, who do YOU all feel about her?
hahahaudder cow
I'll try to answer, but first let me ask this. Do you ever vote anyone early-game in the hopes of getting a read on them?No, your basis on WL is nothing but a gut read. No logical progression to it, there is no basis other than you feel like it. That doesn't fly with me, what has he done that makes him scum in this game before? And now your changing your mind on him quickly, even using what others think as reasoning?

Hey guys, I found a picture of AA:

Am I wrong? Also, that flip off IR was grody as ****.[/QUOTE]Oh hey, I was gonna say "I don't get it" but now I see parrot in the url.
Apologies. If you had asked me a day or two ago, I'd be unreserved in answering, but right now I have a couple leaning scum (Asdioh and IR) and not much else...I'll re-read this afternoon and try to change that up.If you can read back and give me two scum picks + reasons, that'd be simply delightful. May you do me the solid?
Reaching and dumb, but not scummy. He just went out of his way to avoid the Asdioh vibe read/IR meta pursuit issues in finding scum. I don't know why he would do this, maybe he didn't want to look like a bandwagoner on either of the two (at that point) scummy looking people. Still null.AA, what is your opinion on GLG's case on WL?
What a wonderful blue colour.Hey guys, I found a picture of AA:

Am I wrong? Also, that flip off IR was grody as ****.
It's an example of arbitrary and general play. Haven't read back today, but from what I remember he mentioned Gova at the end of a couple posts otherwise dedicated to defending himself.Can you clarify what you mean by this line, and what about this adds to your scum read on Asdioh?
Soup, what do you think of this?July said:As for July, I honestly really like her![]()
I second this.I want to hear from EBR again, especially current reads, especially on IR, aa, and Asdioh. I'd also like their thoughts on GLG's entrance into the game.
I'm not sure what kind of point you're making here, why would july hate her own play or incriminate herself.July said:Soup, what do you think of this?AA said:As for July, I honestly really like her
What a wonderful blue colour.
I'm still okay with a IR lynch.
wha..? you unvoted the guy, you still OK with the lynch but your vote isn't on him? explain aa.Hmm...for now,
unvote
