So you equate anti-town with scum.Shinnen_no_Me wrote:
Yes. I don't think that attitude of him of saying that everything is a scumtell will help the town, not now not later, whatever he's scum or not. So, I rather not have him for another day.TDC wrote:Is that a serious vote?
Which is exactly what Empking is doing.
You guys are a bunch of hypocrites.-

Let's revisit your vote:Shinnen_no_Me wrote:It's not based on previous grudges or anything. I don't like playing with that. But I can't deny that Emp's activity in this game has reduced to say that everything he doesn't like is a scumtell. For me, that's quite enough reason to be suspicious of him. And if he is a townie, do you want a partner like that, who can't truly help you guessing who the mafia is thanks to that?
Whatever he's scum or townie, he's a good lynch.
Underlined for emphasis.Oh, please! Can you end that discussion? It's not going anywhere! I agree with hewitt, random voting is not necessary, and Emp suggested that it was some kind of ritual all townies must do in other to prove that they're not scum early in the game.Get over it, Emp, and let us play the game, you scum.
Unvote
Vote: Emp
For thinking that everything is a scumtell.
So you did claim he was being scummy (and might I add in a way that makes the post sound fake - which is why I thought it was still random).
But now you claim you're actually voting him because he's useless.
Which is it? (And again, Empking actively suspects people for being useless..just like you.)

Empking: What exactly is the purpose of that list?-

It wouldn't be a crap case if townies could easily think it up, would it?Empking wrote:
Even if townies are just as likely to push that specific case?TDC wrote:That's a broad question I can't really answer. People that push crap cases for example.
I'm not saying that "slackers" should be ignored, just that I value lynching scum inthisgame higher than lynching someone to "educate him" for a later game.
I didn't claim you did.When did I say otherwise?-

To clarify my point there:
Lynching someone just because he's useless is
1. not better than a random lynch
2. doesn't gain anymore information that the lynchee's alignment. If Empking comes up town everyone on the wagon can just throw his arms in the air and say "Oh well, who could've known he'd be town! Such an easy mistake to make". There's no responsibility involved at all.
The only possible good thing (other than, by chance, hitting scum) that could come off it is a long term learning effect for the player that's lynched.-

Change the question to "Where has Grimmy been useful?" then.hewitt wrote:I think it's silly to ask a player to evaluate their own game and ask where they've been useful. The ultimate way to rate someone's usefulness to see how useful they are in other player's opinions. If I'm posting useful information and nobody's listening then it's to no avail. If I'm posting crap and everybody's listening then it's misguidance. A player's usefulness is not how they perceive themselves but how other's perceive and use their posts.
Who's to say that Empking will remain a mystery for the whole game?dejkha wrote:I can actually think of a few reasons lynching a useless is better than a random lynch, when the useless is Emp.
- Distracting to town (A random lynch may or may not be. Either way, it's no worse than lynching Emp.)
- Impossible to tell alignment (A random lynch may be someone who's alignment can be guessed by what they post. That's not the case with Emp).
- Adds no new information and doesn't help town at all (A random lynch can give information taht could be used at present or in the future)
I have no idea what the third point is supposed to mean.-

Because it's a useless question.hewitt wrote:And actually why did you not answer my question before turning around and basically asking the same question back to me? I didn't ask you about my game and my usefulness I'm asking you about Empking's usefulness.
You're asking me to tell you where Empking was useful, presumably to justify why I'm not voting him, when several other people have been just as useless, or even more useless (see: Grimmy).
You're applying a double standard.-

I'm not saying he's useful.TDC, you really think that Emp is helping the town? Do you really think Emp is being useful? Why are you so defending/preventing his lynch so much?
You guys are saying he's useless and I'm saying that
a) that's not good enough a reason for a lynch at this point
b) I don't understand why Empking is the only one who is useless (his posts might not help much, but at least he does post).-

Unless the Jailkeeper prevents two nightkills, we have exactly two mislynches. That's not much, and potentially wasting one of these two on a policy lynch would be stupid. Not only because so far the chance of Empking (or Grimmy) being scum is 1/4 like for everyone else, but because we will have nothing to go on tomorrow.Shinnen_no_Me wrote:So far, the only thing that has called my attention has been TDC's posts. It feels as if he was trying to defend Emp. And I'm not saying or imply that TDC's scum, but I don't like people who over-defend others like that. TDC, I know that you probably think that an Emp's lynch just for his attitude is a bad idea, but why you defended him so much? Or is it just my imagination? No sarcasm intended, just wondering if it's just me the one perceiving that way.
That some of you even considertwopolicy lynches is outright ridiculous.
If you consider that "defending Emp", feel free.
Slightly off-topic: Is english your mother tongue?
Exactly. Now imagine what happens if this is all we do today.Sironigous wrote:To be honest, I have nothing on everyone else.
Why?
Everyone on the Empking wagon basically has the same reason for being so.
Everyone else not on the Empking wagon has the same opinion as I - Empking isn't worth the lynch - or is semi-inactive.-

So: No you don't think he's more likely to be scum in this game than chance would have it.dejkha wrote:
I'm done trying to read him. If he doesn't want to adjust his scummy play, then I'll gladly lynch him. If someone else appears scummier then I'll switch my vote, but I doubt that'll happen when all anyone is talking about is Emp.TDC wrote:You think he's more likely to be scum in this game than chance would have it?
In other words: You have no read on him.
What, then, am I bypassing, and how does me having the same opinion regarding his alignment (though different opinion with regard to having him policy lynched) imply I think "he's more likely town"?When you bypass his scumminess and claim to have no read on him as see that as thinking someones more likely town.-

So your criticism of dej is not that he's unreadable when he talks about Emp (which we seem to agree we all are), but that he doesn't talk about anything else?Shinnen_no_Me wrote:I'm not really getting all this mess... Any roads, I'm going to answer a question directed to me some time ago (sorry for being late):
Well, you have a point there. Usually Emp only rises problems against himself. But, take hewitt for example. He's trying to find other ways to keep the game going without needing to lynch Emp for his playstyle, like looking for any leads in other players. I have given it a lot of thought, and I've decided that though I dislike Emp's style, I won't make a policy lynch just for that. I mean, this is a game of discussion, not a game to take it on the people you dislike.TDC wrote:

While, if we take aside discussions brought on him by other people (hewitt and zwet) that is probably true.. why single him out?
He's hardly the only one.-

I have this gut thing where I think dej and you are connected, but I can't really substantiate it. And it might just be a result of your common suffering in your previous game anyway.
Thad and Sir make sense.
Grimmy seems to have to fulfill a fluff quota.
Shin is meh.
Zwet and Emp are in too many games. I have my doubts of whether they actually know whether they're scum or not themselves.-

You think zwet's going to make cases?dejkha wrote:He can give opinions, but I'm saying I don't want him directly saying who his 2nd or 3rd suspect is. I want him to say who he suspects while making cases, but not by making a list. Lists tell scum who his top suspects are, cases don't. Cases make them guess.
Because if he won't, just telling us the names is about the only way we'll ever find out.
Empking: Do you usually make posts of the "my top three suspects are.." variety?-

The discussion with dej is hardly worth panicking over ,you know.Sironigous wrote:It's improperly placed.
That is the FIRST mistake with punctuation you've made the whole game, which just happened to be between the back and forth with you and Dejhka.
Henceforth, I believe that's panicking.-

Entirely besides the point. My point was that you're justifiying your vote with "everyone else does it too!", which is not a good reason at all.Shinnen_no_Me wrote:
My vote looks bad? Sorry, but I do find scummy when a player OMGUS-es almost everything, and answers with "it's a scumtell" when someone says something he doesn't agree with. You may find that normal, and pro-town, but I don't.TDC wrote:

I'm not. How was Empking in "problems"?You're getting yourself in a bad position, as now people may start wondering if you're just scum that is helping a scumbuddy in problems (which, btw, I'm starting to think that as well).
Why are you trying to link people to Empking?

Let me remember you of my question:Sironigous wrote:Oh wow.
I seriously missed that question.
viewtopic.php?p=1581637#1581637
That is the FIRST instance of a misguided punctuation mark which is why I thought he panicked.
After that, he has made several other posting mistakes... (ie. posts 525, 534 [posting with his alt], 575, 596.)
I might have missed others...
I just find it odd that he has 4 mistakes in just 5 pages and 0 mistakes in 20 pages - everything before I mentioned that...Whatwas he panicking over?
If you want to interpret some spelling/punctuation mistakes as "panic" feel free, but until you actually show why he would have reason to panic as scum, I don't see how it's useful evidence for anything.
Or maybe you can dig up some scum games of him where his posts were "riddled" with errors like that.-

I would say the pressure from Zwet and Dejhka.
