Two questions:

Why are you willing to drop Fynal scum?

Can you explain how his accusation was baseless with counter-points?

I asked Sword's and Kuz (Null and town respectively) what they thought of what I feel was a scumtell.

I have been told by both that they see it as newbie town/newbie. Therefore it probably isn't a scumtell.


His accusation is based on the assumption that I voted Fynal because he put JTB at L-1. It has nothing to do with that.

I explain this here:

Weary of his early play, but now he's done with giving the advice early on I feel he's scumhunting.

Specifically, #534.

Cool with Sword/Ranmaru/JTB atm.

Want to hear from both Soren and Gatlin about stuff before we even come close to ending this Day.

Sorry for ignoring this thread so far today, I was pretty wrapped up with another game.

Seikend null (leaning scum) for me. I understand his case on Fynal now, but I still find it odd that he was hopping on easy wagons.

@kuz's #486

As focus rapidly shifted off him and onto me, he didn't go for it like ran, siek, sword, etc. He started calling out ran, siek, and soup, 3 other people who were on his wagon, and to a certain degree he was defending me.

I consider this a fairly solid town tell, he's looking all over a hyper-speed-formed wagon for scum, instead of at the most obvious target(i.e. me) as i'v got enough people on me(i.e. Ranmaru)

which brings me to my next point:

@Ran a couple of things are sticking out about you. Why did you go after me so obsessively without posting your own reasons? kuz asked you this in #448, but your answer in #452 avoided explaining. you admit in #464 that i was a special case and you jumped fast, and started drilling me because you think my roleclaim excuse is bs. You've been drilling me ever since, and recently started encouraging other people to ask me questions.

Well, I try not to be defensive, because defending myself isn't my priority. Scum need to look town, not me. I have to catch scum. (Yet this will net me attention, it doesn't matter)

Basically, I care not of my image, but of catching scum. I may be wreckless.
speaking of bs, what is this? i don't have meta on you, can't say for sure.

also, ran, your #440 listed JTB, soup, and slightly Gova after me as scumpicks. in #464, as JTB's bandwagon was finishing its rapid deflation, you claim he had enough pressure on him, so you could switch to me. What is your analysis of me and/or JTB now?


my read on Ranmaru: null-scum. would switch to null-town-scumhunting if i had reason to believe this was not scummy

EBWOP yes i'm not voting on purpose. awaiting a much more solidified opinion before i go wagoning again.

i do see ran spreading around pressure, questioning siek, etc. its really the "i don't care about my image, i've gotta hunt scum" post that gets me.

Now, despite the fact that I consider Fynal's reaction to be a tell of a newbie-townie, I'm still cautious of him for two things right now:

1. Him putting someone at L_1 and then LOLing about how someone might hammer him. That . . . tells me that he might of already known about the dangers of putting someone at L_1, and thus lying about how he didn't realize that it was really bad for him to put someone at L_1.

2. Him deliberately using the noobcard as of late.

@Ran, Gova: Thoughts on this?
Uh, at 1, maybe you should ask him about it, to determine if he was wrong or lying instead of just accusing him straight off the bat for it.

2, where is he using the noob card? I don't recall seeing it.

Ok, you are wrong. Kuz asked me, and I did answer it. Right here:

Jtb, Soup. Soup for getting on a wagon without a reason, while saying he DID give a reason.

Gova null leaning scum. Ausie is null.
Of course, i have went after you. L-1 is no laughing matter, and yet you knew someone might have hammered. There is nothing wrong with asking people about you. I asked people about myself. Explain how that is scummy. You are still noob scum to me. JTB is scum, especially for asking people before joining my wagon. What do you think of JTb/Seikend/TBS? Don't forget that Kuz used MY reasoning to get a wagon started on him, none of his own.

I think you are just OMGUSING me. So, do you still think I'm throwing suspicion off myself? What should I do?

Seriously Ran? You don't need to think someone is scum in order to jump on a wagon, you get on a wagon to apply pressure and see how they react.

unvote vote Ranmaru



It's a null tell. Nothing wrong with jumping on a wagon for reads.
Oh yeah my bad. I forgot you were on me long before Kuz was.

X1, do you agree now that he is indeed coasting? He's only made two posts in the entire time that this Day has started, neither of which had helped us toward our wincon. And his profile shows that he has been online.

No. I would agree that he's not posting. Doing that and coasting are very different. Wait till he receives a prod atleast to accuse him of that,


JTB tell me about Swords

I'll have to come back to you on him, I was just quickly browsing the thread before I get ready for a job fair today. I'll touch up on him this afternoon.

No, you should teach newbies how to play. Its not good mafia practice to delay the lynching of scum.

Read this:

For ICs
[collapse=IC's (inexperienced challenged)]There are a few things I ask for (and expect) to happen during this game.

1) Please be respectful to the other players.
Although you all have far more experience than the players around you. These games are for the newbies. Make this a fun experience for everyone.
2) You are here to teach
Explain what should happen throughout the game in certain situations. Newbies tend to become inactive without a gentle nudge in the right direction.
3) You are here to win.
While you are here to teach, you are also here to win. With that being said, you need to have a perfect blend of both rules 2 and 3. Win condition comes first, teaching comes later. If you come to a point where you have deceived someone to meet your win condition, tell them what they did wrong, or why you did what you did.

If you would like to know more ways of being a good IC, read here Being a good IC[/collapse]

X1 and Kuz treating me like the star of this game, I'm glad.

I don't know what to think of Swords. Doing a quick iso of him, it doesn't appear that he's taken any strong scum stances, just a minor FoS on Fynal? I understand his vote on Gatlin since I feel the same way about Soren, but that has been the only time he's voted outside of RVS. So, null-scum?

X1, I believe I'm not properly understanding the definition of coasting. Would it more appropriately fit Swords since he's not actively scumhunting and not doing much to help town?

Coasting = Posting little content, bobbing along, posting but being OK with not scumhunting or providing reads etc

Lurking = Posting very little, popping up only from time to time, inactive.

Soren = Not posting at all

Which of the above is scummy?

Coasting = scummy (usually) - Players who want to look like they're contributing or being helpful without providing content.

Lurking = scummy-ish - Sometimes people are just inactive, sometimes people just don't want to have attention on them

Soren = Null


Also sorry to say guys but I'm V/LA for a while. Got ridiculous work deadlines. I get 2 weeks of at the end of this week though so will be super active and catching scum then! If it interests you to know, then my top two reads from this game atm are Swords and JTB. AA comes a close second but needs more questioning. If someone wants to follow up on him that'd be nice. He seems far too agreeable

i posted my view of JTB in the post you quoted.
siek: null, maybe null-town. he jumped around a lot, but he was scumhunting
TBS: he's posted too little for me to get a read. I realize my first accusation of him was almost baseless. waiting for a few more posts before i get a read.

have more to say, will post after dinners

bleh, looks like i didn't actually say "my read is X"
now that i look at this post again it wasn't as well worded as it could have been...

read on JTB: town, tentatively. i have yet to analyze why a bandwagon formed on you in a first place, i was just looking at it's deflation, as kuz had asked.

@kuz ok. got one more to finish before swords then i'll look into him
