There's something your wall o' text can defend against.
unvote, Vote: Khamisa
This vote is bolstered by the fact that your cute little kitty cat is the antithesis of Lynx's badass, predatory avatar. When we lynch the antithesis, we lynch khamisa.-

Not necessarily. Both town and scum players want the game to move into a phase where a lynch is both more likely and less reprehensible on an individual level. An RVS-lynch (hammer vote specifically) is an instant suspicion-magnet, something scum would never encourage.dank wrote:CSL stated distaste for a long RVS, what I feel is a town point of view
Disliking long RVS's is a null-tell.-

Is your vote on CSL really that serious?? You jumped on what seemed like a very lighthearted post. His "Fos: My Bandwagon"-post seemed to me no more grave than if he had said "cmon guys im really the RVS target?" I get this vibe based on the "evil twin" comment after, followed by the "XD"Lynx wrote:On a side note, you say it's town's motivation to get us out of the RVS. But I've seen you do little to accomplish this goal. As far as I'm concerned, Paradox and I are the only ones with actual serious votes out there.
I guess this could be aided by CSL responding as to whether his threat was a legitimate one.-

This is false. Discussion of game theory encourages scum to contribute in what they sometimes mistakenly interpret as a "non-scumhunting" environment, leaving their posts less guarded. Analysis of game theory posts can definitely yield results.RayFrost wrote:(game theory doesn't help find scum)...
Also, if that all sounds a little too conspiratorial for you, game theory discussion is still discussion. In this game alone, theory-talk is ushering us out of RVS.-

This has to be the single worst opinion I've ever read. You don't "pass around votes and nothing gets done." Each successive vote is a sign that the player receiving the votes is more and more obligated to take a stand and defend themselves. It LITERALLY is pressure. The more votes you allow to pile onto someone (eg: bandwagon) LITERALLY increases how pressured they are to respond. How can you argue this?Khamisa wrote:Maybe it's only applicable to me, but I don't care about votes. We could pass around a million votes and nothing gets done; but one someone reaches five, there better be a good reason as to why that happened.
And supposedly I've been posting fluff. Give me something that I haven't noted already.-

Just reread Khamisa. She has only contributed 7 of the 173 posts in this game so far. Of these 7 posts, 1 is a confirmation, 3 are related to her random vote, and the most recent 3 are arguments about the nature of pressure/fluff. Although you definitely couldn't argue she's playing well, I just don't think she's said enough to be considered the scummiest so far. Granted what she has said is none-too-commendable, RayFrost and CSL are both actively digging their own graves every time they post.
At this point, I'm going to leave my vote on Khamisa (just to keep applying the pressure she claims doesn't exist.) I'd like to have my vote on CSL, but that would put him at L-1, and he deserves one more chance to defend himself/start playing for real.
Consider this an ultimatum CSL.
Khamisa needs to post something of substance soon too, and while we're on the subject. How about Maemuki?? Only 6 total posts including the confirmation, and the most recent post was a week ago today.-

I'm not sure if this is what Lynx was getting at, but YOU DIDNT REALIZE YOU ONLY FOS'ED HIM? This strikes me as flat out bullshit. People have already brought up the fact that you unvoted an imaginary player without putting your vote on anyone else! Dank asked you straight up, and you responded. [posts 171 and 172] Usually when you drop a vote on someone, you provide some sort of reasoning, even if its just a well composed summary. But you provide nothing.CSL wrote:Yes, I'm serious. Putting someone at L-1 is scummy. I'm claiming if you guys put me at L-1 again.
And this L-1 ultimatum?? I'm not buying it.

Just couldn't get to a computer in time to beat the rush of responses you got.Paradox wrote:And I'm sick of Deuxieme being explained for. I asked a question and I want people to explain themselves. Or is that as unreasonable as asking someone's motivations?
Paradox wrote:When CSL threatened to claim you chose to apply more preassure.Once he'd actually claimed you unvote.I think that's suspicious.i added the bold
Here's MY explanation, which is I think, unique from the explanations that have been provided for me by others.
CSL makes his "Don't put me at L-1 or I'll claim" ultimatum, which I readily admit, is a pretty obvious softclaim. I contemplated the obvious option, (back off so as not to completely out a power role) but then I reread CSL's posts, and decided that regardless of a claim threat, he was acting pretty scummy. Since we know exactly what power roles we have, and CSL had already softclaimed (which made him a pretty strong mafia NK target on its own if he was town) I would try to call his bluff if he was mafia. The Doc and the Cop don't know who each other are, so both could buy his softclaim as being "the other."
Now, unfortunately, CSL has claimed Doc and no one has counterclaimed. But to reiterate, I think CSL's softclaim put him so much at risk anyway, that we're not THAT worse off.
Bear in mind, I do agree with many of the explanations for forcing CSL's claim that others have provided but this was an aspect I heavily considered, and it had not been mentioned.
Now for the bolded part. No one has counterclaimed his Doc claim. Why would this be suspicious at all?-

For taking the time to post a nice-sized diatribe against empking, ray, and dank, but failing entirely to acknowledge the direct address made to her by Empking, right previous to her post. Why did you ignore this question, but still take the time to quote people and attempt to refute them?

There's a picture of a girl in RayFrost's avatar, but he's listed as a guy.Haylen wrote:I AM A GIRL.
THERE IS A PICTURE OF A GIRL IN MY AVATAR
EmpKing's voting thus far on Day 2 has been erratic and precariously founded. First Haylen, but then a 1-sentence Paradox vote, and as soon as Paradox responds, a 1-sentence unvote/vote back to Haylen. It gives me the vibe that he's trying to look like he's got real suspicions by tossing votes around that won't draw suspicion on him but that make sure we are aware of him as "actively playing."
Emp, please reiterate why your vote is on Haylen.-

I'm really not digging this post. The part in italics is extremely deflective; the conflict between those two characteristics (anti-town and scummy) is a major part of the case against Ray. It needs to be defended.-

There's a difference between reckless and aggressive. Everyone has to admit that this game got off fairly slowly, and concerning CSL, as I've already said, when a case finally came along that I thought warranted some real suspicion, I took action. Sure, a less aggressive player would have acknowledged the soft claim and abandoned the wagon. but first of all, there's no reason to trust CSL if he doesn't claim directly, and second of all, it can be argued that certainty of a mistake is better than just some nebulous possibility.paradoxombie wrote: I still think DO is suspicious for his fairly reckless voting of CSL(outing the doctor) and Khamisa (unexpectedly hammering).-

Reconsidering my vote on Haylen. I accused her of deflecting and question-dodging because she took the time to make a fairly large post without answering the questions directly addressed at once, but she quickly proved me wrong there, and the only other basis for my vote was what I interpreted to be voluntary lurking. Although that's still a possibility, I'm not really as convinced of it anymore after rereading her. She promises to vote by tomorrow, so I'll leave the vote there right now, but a substantive (and obviously, non-scummy) post would probably warrant an unvote.
Empking, why exactly are you voting Haylen? Do you find anything scummy beyond what I've already mentioned?
Lynx, what would Emp have to do to alleviate your suspicion of him?
I know we've gone back and forth about this (the whole "I started this wagon / No you didn't" thing) but can you provide some quotes and post numbers that disprove EmpKing's claims?Lynx wrote:I'm attacking Empking for trying to take credit for actually doing something for the town when he has not.
RayFrost, where do you stand on all this?
Why wouldn't a player who is apathetic, or disinterested respond to pressure this way? Wouldn't pressure be something that would generate interest in an uninterested player? This is a flawed deduction, and the fact that you use it to justify a vote/suspicion troubles me.Dank wrote: Empking more or less actively lurked all game, which suggests either purposeful lurking (he's scum), or apathetic lurking of a disinterested player. The fact that when the pressure's on him he seems have gotten much more active, implies that it was probably not the latter. I'm getting that vibe from his posts.

Okay, I see what you're saying. But I still think the circumstances here don't necessarily point to one situation over another. If anything it becomes a null tell. If there's a case against Empking, it's going need more to it than this, is all I'm saying. I personally don't like the way he's been responding to Lynx's pressure, but I can't see anything yet that really gives me good solid motivation to vote him. Maybe that's just because he has a tendency to post very few words, and when someone doesn't give you a lot to quote, it makes it harder to analyze.dank wrote:In my experience, if you're not interested in a game, then you're just not interested in the game, regardless of what's going on.
Prime example is Khamisa. She was jumped on pretty early for being an apathetic townie, and responded with one or two posts, hardly making any sort of defense, and then just dissapeared. Same behavior throughout.
Its not foolproof by no means, but I think its a decent deduction based on my experience in this game, other games, and even my own behavior (just ask Lynx about Quiet Town )
This still leads me to asking, Empking, where do you stand suspicion-wise? You've spent the better part of the last 3 pages defending whether or not you started the Kham/Haylen wagons, and really haven't mentioned whether or not you had good, well-founded suspicions on either of them. What's the deal?-

First of all: Have you heard the theory that saying "to be honest" is a scum tell, since it implies that you're generally not being honest, and that this is an exception? What would you say to that?RayFrost wrote:Tbh, neither are exactly excellent in reasoning, but those are my top choices,if I had to lynch somebody
Second: The fact of the matter is that youhave to lynch someone. Not because you have absolute power or anything, but because that is how the game is played. You need to decide on someone who needs to be lynched. So let's question your targets right now. First para, who's been absent for a little while, making it all the easier to allow your "case" on him to sit stagnant without being questioned. What exactly is your case against Para, or if you don't want to call it case, can you remind everyone why you find him the most suspicious so far?do
You call Empking distracting. What would you say about his play is distracting? What is he distracting us from?-

Don't you remember that Paradoxombie needed to be prodded for his return? He was gone for 5 days, 5 days when your "case" existed on him. This is an all-too-obvious attempt to lessen the weight of my actual arguments by trying to "disprove" details, which would make me seem less reliable. It pains me to let Haylen go, after yet another IOU, but I just have to.RayFrost wrote:Second, I'm saying I don't feel solid enough to have either of them lynched right now. Also, I'm not sure how para, who's posted quite recently, has been "absent for a little while." Would you mind explaining that a bit more?

Well duh Lynx. But it's interesting to see how people respond when you tell something they're doing is a scumtell. I'm sure somebody else has probably used it by this point in the game already. I just wanted to see how Ray responded.Lynx The Antithesis wrote:

Didn't realize there were outstanding questions posed to me. This is from post 429, which you cited, Lynx.
I've answered this already, albeit indirectly so I'll restate it in context here. Obviously Ray doesn't have the power to lynch anyoneLynx wrote:DO, I don't understand the extent of your problems with Rayfrost about the lynch candidates. Did you not ask him who he'd he'd be willing to lynch right now? He answered who he'd be willing to lynch if he had to right now. He just didn't use the "right now" like you did. What is scummy about this?right now. It's just a forceful way to get a List of Suspicions, and in this particular case it happened to provoke a contradiction: namely, that although Ray, by his own account, does not support another policy lynch (which defined his case against Khamisa D1) he puts a player on whom he has NEUTRAL read in the number two spot (Empking) implying that he would support a policy lynch again. Contradictions are inherently scummy, because the indicate a lack of honesty.
Empking's response was pretty terrible (he gave me one sentence that was a complete deflection) but at the same time I'm having a hard time analyzing that because it exactly the same amount of effort that he's put into answering anyone else's questions. I'm going back and forth between Ray and Emp as of right now; my vote's on Ray, but I'm beginning to doubt the merit there, at least over Emp. It will take some rereading.Lynx wrote: How is Empking's response to your similar question any better? He basically dodged it while Ray answered "honestly" at least?
And Lynx, what is this about me skating by today? If you think there's more I could be doing, I'd be happy to oblige.-

I'm not sure I like this post. Lynx was very clear about why he thought your skepticism gave him a town read, which makes this post seem a lot like very forced overkill. I don't know if this is necessarily a scummy post, but it seems to me like you're trying very hard to play the part that Lynx has concocted for you.RayFrost wrote:If I understand you correctly, you are saying the fact I don't trust you and don't take your "town reads" out of hand to be a town tell? If it is my general attitude toward scum hunting, I would like it if you explained what that meant, exactly.
Do you actually not understand something about Lynx's comments or what? I think, however, that when Lynx responds to my post, all this will be cleared up.
The EmpKing post with the vote-switch is really scummy.
Dank pretty much sums up the many ways this post reeks right after:Empking wrote:Unvote: Haylen
Looks like she legitimately wants to post.
Vote: Para
It looks to me like Para is buddying to RF. (See: His continued defence of Ray Frost.)
Empking realizes his vote on Haylen has no potential of inspiring a policy lynch so he makes up a b/s reason to remove it. Then he puts the new vote on Paradox for buddying with RayFrost, and the only way you could possibly rationalize this is to mentally remove Lynx from the game entirely (not that I personally see Lynx as necessarily buddying up to Ray...yet) A lot of this just doesn't make sense.Dank wrote: 1. Haylen "legitimately wants to post", but still has yet to contribute anything to the whole game. She's said that she'll post before (even giving specific days) just like she did there multiple times, and has yet to deliver. Why, exactly, does her last post convince you of anything?
2. You're voting Para for defense of RayFrost. If you read the game, Para has Ray as his second suspect behind you, and has mentioned several scummy things Ray has done. Lynx has had a much more in depth defense of Ray, in which he both calls him town, and fails to give any specific reason as to why he thinks he's town (see post above yours, where he says "I can't really explain"). In other words, Lynx not only defends Ray more than paradox, sees Ray as more town than paradox does, but even fails to come up with adequate reasoning for why he thinks that. If you're voting for defense of Ray, why are you voting para and not lynx?
I'm thinking about putting my vote on Empking instead of Ray, but here's the problem: right now, Ray will be lynched if all votes remained the same up until the deadline. If I unvote, Emp becomes the lynch, by default. The problem with unvoting then, is that even if I change my mind and go back to voting Ray after that, Emp remains the one to be lynched because of the rules of the deadline (unless of course someone else votes Ray.) This is why I really need something huge to move my vote from Ray, because, for all intents and purposes, after that, it's gone. This last post from Empking may be just scummy enough to do the trick, but I'm going to play it safe here - we've still got 3 days till the deadline. So now Emp...here's your chance to convince me.
@Empking
Where does RayFrost sit with you? What's your read on him?-

My reasoning would not lose any of its value Ray. The logic itself would still be correct, it just would't be relevant anymore. Right now, I'd say I find Empking slightly more scummy than you, but I'm giving him one more chance before the deadline to respond to the question I posed him before I switch my vote because, guess what Ray, you're not voting Empking.RayFrost wrote:and if I vote empking... you're reasoning here would lose all its value. As it is, I won't jut yet. My understanding here, though, is that you find me to be equally scummy when compared to empking. I would like it if you listed off the reasoning for finding both me and empking scummy and say how each thing weighs in your mind on the scumminess scale.
Since you'd like me to tell you the reasons I find you scummy, I will oblige you.
RayFrost:
1. Contradictions concerning policy lynches/suspect lists.
2. What seems to me to be a bit of overacting regarding this super-town player that Lynx likes to pretend you are
-----I will admit though that my suspicion of you has definitely diminished significantly since its initial flare-up about 100 or so posts ago.
I'm late for class as it is, so I will get to Empking a little later.-

So Empking responded to my request and gave us his read on RayFrost...which turned out to be a string of one-liners that ranged from contradictory (the town read on Rayfrost) to nonsensical (the other two statements.)
Now that Dank has put his vote there though, it makes no difference whether or not I do...Emp will be lynched unless everyone undergoes some sort of magnificent transformation in the next day and a half. After some more contemplation and rereading though, I've determined that I wouldn't really want Ray lynched (at least yet) so I'm gonna
unvote, Vote: Emp
this is basically a moot vote, but at least the vote-count will better reflect where my suspicions sit.-

Wow totally jerk-ed that one up...forgot to take into account that there were only 7 people alive. Guess I'm gonna have to eat shit tomorrow for accidentally hammering twice in a row. But still...Empking was 99.99% certainly the lynch that would have occurred at deadline tomorrow. I know, you'll say, maybe he could have said something to defend himself... But it's been over a day since my vote -- the mod hasn't closed the thread, and Empking hasn't bothered to say anything. So #1: there's a good chance he wouldn't have said anything before the deadline. #2: what could he really have said at this point?
But yeah this is all basically rationalizing the fact that I made a mistake. I wouldn't have hammered had I been more aware (I would have just let the deadline do it) but I'm not particularly regretful since he's the man I wanted lynched anyway.-

Are we playing Clue? Anyway detective, good job, there's nothing I can do at this point.Lynx The Antithesis wrote:Well we should be pretty glad I was on Empking's ass all day yesterday. He was clearly scum and a much better choice than Ray for the lynch.
Now we have a cop in the game who was able to use an investigation last night and survived until today. We should definitely hear his claim to confirm some town roles. There's no point of hiding it because the cop will not be able to use his ability again until Night 4 which would be the end of the game. If there's a counterclaim, we can lynch that person. If by some miracle that person came up town, then the other cop would be scum and he'd be lynched the next day.
Oh wait...just checked the role PM. Silly me, in fact, I'm theCOP. Yup, I'm the big bad sheriff. I saw that one person on the Empking was pretty scummy for ignoring Empking until it was completely necessary to hop on. Instead of genuinely attacking Empking with the rest of us, he tried to push the Ray wagon along.
It's pointless to draw this out and toy with the last scum. I was heavily contemplating it though just to see how they would talk themselves out of it. The last scum with Empking was....
Our old buddyDeuxieme Octupus. You made some fairly large mistakes by killing Dank instead of me and poorly bussing Empking.Vote :Deuxieme Octopus...Let's lynch this bastard and go home.
Take it like a man DO.
vote: Deuxieme Octopus
Take me home, captain.
