That's not an answer to the question, and your last statement is irrelevant because it's not a fact.
I did it because I was amused by smith's reason and knew it would generate reactions. Simple enough. I'd say it's done the job thus far.
So I ask you again - is it scummy? I would like you to explain this one.-

Ok - explain why it is more likely to come from scum.
You can't really say my reason isn't valid. You asked me why I did it and I gave you my answer. If you don't like it then idk what to tell you lol. Again, you're presentingopinionsas if they are facts which isn't good play in the very least. I was amused by smith's joke vote and figured sheeping it to get something started was better than doing nothing.
Does it matter that I picked his over someone else's? Who would've been a better wagon to vote on prior to that?-

Considering the state of the game at the time, it was good enough of a reason. I don't need some deep thought process to sheep someone's joke vote. That's a stupid point for you to make.-

Scum reasons:
Blending with another player.
Sheeping a teammate.
Town reasons:
Getting a Wagon started (I already explained why this one's not possible, you would've done it with your first vote if that was your intention).
Reaction Test (Seems to be your explanation, but a reaction test stops being one when everyone knows what's coming).
1) Blending in by doing an action that directly lead to me getting attention? Seems counter productive.
2) Huge reach at this point. There's literally no evidence to suggest this.
You are straw manning the Hell out of this case.
1) Again, you cannot tell me how I would've used my vote. The fact I made an RVS before wagoning doesn't mean shit. You are reaching.
2) I did want to generate discussion/reactions, and it's worked. You bit and now others can weigh in on our interactions.
In post 30, knightmare wrote:Also - why does it matter that I made an RVS vote before switching?
I refuse to believe that a Town player would just go "Hey let's vote a random person" and one hour later goes "Oh hey let's randomly sheep this person instead for reactions". Once again, why didn't you do it with your first vote? What made you change your approach this game in that 1 hour time frame? seems a little quick...
Timeframe is irrelevant. It really makes no difference that I made an RVS vote before wagoning someone because the purpose is still the same.
"Refuse to believe" ? That's a rather hard line to take so early in the game when your reasons for me being scum aren't that good in the first place. Not sure if you're scum or just extremely subjective in your scum hunting, but either way it's not a good look.
I would like some others to get involved at this point.-

Sakura's reason was because I sheeped an RVS vote. You agree that's scummy?
Also, seriously - why the fuck else would I sheep an RVS vote that was clearly going nowhere while blatantly saying I was shamelessly sheeping it if not for reactions?

Out of curiosity, knight, have you caught scum for "BS reasons for scum reads" right of the RVS gate? Or is that a process that happens later on?
Not RVS, no. It tends to hold more firmly as the game progresses, but that could be as early as EOD1 depending on the type of content that is produced. I find that sometimes scum struggle to come up with reasons to push townies, so they have to make 'narratives' that frame someone in a bad way. That's why I find it important to challenge people on points that I think are bad/not scummy and force them to explain their POV more clearly. It's not fool proof because bad =/= scum all the time but it's constructive behavior nonetheless. Make them be on record so that it can be reviewed later if need be.-

Knightmare have you played on other sites you seem pretty knowledgeable?
Bold is the point I've been stressing the entire time. Amazing.
You're right, this is my second game here on MS. I've been playing Mafia for a while, but I think I'm still adjusting to how things are done here so I feel like the new kid in school or something - which might be where some of the edge comes from. But I also maintain Sakura's reason was bad though, thus reacting as I did.-

Firstly - I would ask why didn't you say this from the get go? It wouldn't have made your vote look as bad as it did initially otherwise.
Secondly - I can tell by reading this that you are working under the assumption that I think I've caught Sakura as scum? That's not the case at all. So with that in mind - let me address your points now.
In post 50, Sayaka Maizono wrote:OK.
Your reaction towards Sakura was really bad. I feel you aren't considering the motivations behind her posts and instead are just posturing here. As a few examples: what is the purpose in calling a post on page like 2 "reaching"?Who do you think is more likely to "reach" on page 2, scum who wants to blend in and avoid tipping anyone off; or town who starts with the game with no information and thus wants to push around to get reactions? Both of which are things you said in this thread btw so I know you're aware of this. I think you saw her pushing you and got worried that it would gain traction, and overreacted.
Moreover for someone who acts like they caught scum straight out of RVS phase you haven't so much as voted her and instead keep your vote on the RVS wagon you joined? If you were going for reactions here you should have voted her. I think what you did is more like scum testing the waters to see if their push would be well received before wanting to commit to it, than town who is believing of what they're saying.
Your entire angle contradicts itself tbh, and it's for this reason I'm voting you.
I can react badly to something and still be townie, first and foremost.
Sakura's reason for voting me was crap, and I addressed it as much. You are assuming, again, that I didn't consider their motive. I wondered if perhaps they were just pushing a bad case to see how I'd react, but later she apparently doubled down on it when I pushed her to explain more. So I doubt that was what she was doing.
I called her post reaching because that's what it was. It being on page 2 is irrelevant. A reach is a reach, and her trying to say I could be scum sheeping a partner in Smith is a gigantic leap in logic for that stage of the game. The bold is something I would agree with in a generic sense, but I see what you're getting at. That said, at the point we were in the game either alignment is going to have to 'reach' to make any sort of case.
Once again, you are working under the assumption that I am scum reading Sakura outright - which isn't the case. If it was, I would've stated explicitly and I would be voting here. You'll find that I'm a pretty straight shooter and I say what I mean. I rebutted her case because it sucked, but I'm also very aware that bad cases don't always equal scum and I would need more time to gauge how she progresses elsewhere. Townies tend to trend up, scum tend to trend down in my experience.

This is a kind of thing I think scum are more likely to say than town because all it is a bullshit neutral sounding comment that's designed to look good and posture. If you were town and you were actually unsure out of her posts what is the point in throwing that "it's not a good look on the end" if not to throw shade at her? And if you were town and thought she was more likely to be scum, you would have said as much instead of acting unsure about it (which again points to being afraid to commit to it).
I said it's not a good look for her because it's not a good look. Plain and simple.
For me, from my POV, I now have to try and evaluate Sakura while ignoring the bias that she is calling me scum for a shit reason if I want to remain objective. So yes, it does look bad for her imo and makes it harder for me to judge her clearly in this regard. If you want to call it posturing, fine, but I don't need to have a 100% read on a slot at this point. I can also challenge something someone says without scum reading them.

I think you guys are taking this in the wrong way. When I said 'bit' I meant that she reacted to it. Not 'bit' as in I've caught scum who stumbled into my trap. Lol that's ridiculous
I didn't mean it in a negative context, which is apparently how you are interpreting it.-

This post sounds like a bunch of narrative spin to push me as scum. The bold and italics parts are especially bad, nothing objective there - just an attempt to smear me regardless.

It's pretty obvious why people second guess themselves when you plop scummy ass votes on my wagon in the manner you did.
You're claiming a lot of ignorance regarding the events of the thread considering how hard you want to lynch me. So instead of acting like opportunistic scum who thinks they've found low hanging fruit - you reread and bring something original to the table?-

I don't necessarily disagree with you on those two. Garmr seems to be looking at things objectively but he also strikes me as a strong player generally so I would say my town lean there is cautiously light. I liked chilled's reaction to Sayaka's naked vote earlier, I had similar thoughts to what I'm assuming he did in that instance.-

You're right actually, and apparently I have been working off a misunderstanding this entire time. I thought Sakura was sussing me for sheeping an RVS vote, when I guess originally it was because I made a second one? LOL... still, both are terrible reasons to be scum reading me and I stand by that. Saying I am defensive for arguing how these are bad is also a terrible reason to be scum reading me.
I get that it's D1 and players tend to leap on the first person who moves, but when I'm getting pushed for bad crap like this what happens is that it opens up the door foractual scum(hint hint: Lowell) to start pushing me for it as well.-

Having to think hard to figure out a motive is more or less what I meant about reaching. You had toreally thinkas to how it could be scummy for me to do so, and even then you came up with two reasons that weren't very strong.
I think I have stated from the get-go that your reason to push me was bad, and I'll continue to reiterate even now considering I realize that apparently the issue wasn't that I sheep'd Smith's vote (which I did for reactions, thus answering you in such a way since I assumed that was what you were talking about) but because I made a second RVS vote. So no, I don't feel I've misrepped you. The reaching point was just another in which I was proving your case was bad.
All that said, I'm over it. I don't really think you are scum at this point, but I think you need to be a little more critical in how you interpret a player's actions.-

@Smith - thoughts on anything else? Anything that has stood out to you, good or bad?
Looking at my wagon there is already a decent chance scum is on it. I feel like as much as I've been discussed at this point there's no way they don't bite at the chance to wagon me.
Figure out who it is.
My bet is between Lowell/Boon.-

In post 113, mhsmith0 wrote:@knight: This is my first time doing RVS so... I don't know? It does seem that you've been taking this surprisingly seriously, so I wonder if you're a bit too defensive.
But frankly, my scum hunting approach is to try and figure out sincerity, try and figure out who's fake scum hunting, etc. I find it difficult to parse out the BS that's town trying reaction testing and messing with people form the BS that's alignment indicative.
PS Why do you think there's scum on your wagon? Why not just a bunch of townies that thought it'd be fun/interesting/productive to build a quick wagon and see what happens? Do you think that the wagon was a serious attempt to kill you and bring D1 to a quick close?
PPS Did you notice that the only person who hasn't posted since the confirms went in was the scum I caught? Why abandon such a clear winning wagon?
Why is it surprising for someone to be serious? I play these games because they're fun but I also like to win them.
PS: Based purely from a mathematical standpoint, it's already likely that there's scum on my wagon. Any random populace in the game of 4 or more playersshouldproduce at least one scum. I was up to L-2 at one point. Your question is a good one to ask though. The difference is in how I have been cased. Do you get the vibe that anyone who was wagoning me is doing it just for kicks? Or am I legitimately getting pushed as a serious scum candidate? When it's the latter, knowing my alignment, I now have to discern who is genuine and who is just trying to kill me because they need the mislynch. Can everyone who voted me be all town? Yes, but I strongly doubt it.
PPS: I lol'd at this, good one. Tbh, I haven't noticed though - but I will be giving players their due diligence as they come in though. Expedience/Madonna seem to be the next two up.-

What I'm getting from this post is that you honestly thought (or at least heavily suspected) that it was a serious attempt to kill you. What in that stream of votes made you think that? The L-2 vote in particular was such flagrant bullshit that even I picked up on it.
The fact I got to L-2 alone is troubling for me. Perhaps it's a cultural difference from where I come from and here, but I am not used to wagons being formed for amusement. If you're asking what votes in particular I find the most suspect? Boon and Lowell, as I've stated already.
And I also don't think anyone's vote on me was not serious, minus Almost50. Do you disagree?
I'm not saying I would've been lynched within the first 24 hours of the game - but taking into context the discussion from today - I don't think it's unreasonable to say that I was/am a legit lynch candidate.-

@Madonna that is probably a better explanation than I gave earlier. I think Smith took it as me saying I saw those wagoning me as attempting to end Day quickly when I meant I did think the wagon was serious. I was talking about being lynched, which I guess he connected to Day ending.
@Sayana I disagree with you about Lowell. I can accept that people think his vote for me was NAI. I do think 84 and the one from this morning are though. Him saying I am just OMGUSing is crap because there are others who voted me that I haven't attacked. His progression is bad and his focus is narrow thus far. I don't see this as townie play.-

My point is that I think Lowell istwisting things to make me look scummyand that his perspective is not genuine.
Again, look at post 84 again I think it's pretty obvious he is not being objective.-

In terms of content to action ratios, Lowell is doing a whole lot better than most. His reasoning has been simple and clean, and I like that.
I'm not sure we can agree to disagree on this. 84 is a terrible post. His line about me making some "deep, methodical post to look helpful that reeks of scum" is seriously bad and nothing but false conjecture. It's not an objective argument, it's an attempt to smear me. I don't find this townie at all.
85 is an exaggeration. Who was actually freaking out about my wagon? You said yourself Sakura handled it rather passively and that's the only one I would consider getting cold feet at the time that was around.
89 also doesn't make sense in the context he is agreeing with you on.
So no, I strongly disagree that he's making good posts and I find it questionable that you think so. What about his two most recent posts, what's your opinion on those?-

I don't really think he has such a strong scum read as people are claiming he is, I think people are taking issue with his methodology for pushing reads.
You're over thinking it imo. Like how can he sheep without knowing the details of the argument? It's bullshit. It's lazy town at best and opportunistic scum at worst.

I said as much to you back when it happened. The sequence of your posts doesn't make it apparent, so no, I don't think it's unreasonable to draw the conclusion that you were voting me for being defensive.-

I agree with the above. Boon has a slightly better read now that he's back and engaging, but I still think his entry was weird.
Lowell on the other hand hasn't done anything but throw mud at me while offering no other thoughts anywhere else. For as young as the game is having such hard tunnel vision isn't genuine imo. It's easy to see that my alignment is becoming more clear and basically everyone else who was scum reading me early on has shown progression in that regard except for him.
TLDR - he's scum and can't believably change his stance on me because he committed too hard to it.-

He's jumped onto every wagon, putting Knight at L-2 and Lowell at L-2, voting Sayaka in between, and now getting scum vibes from Boon. Something seems particularly wrong about putting Knight at L-2 and then putting his accuser, Lowell, at L-2.
You're another one that I'm unsure of. Out of everyone who was scum reading me, or at least supporting the case that I looked bad, you're the only one who didn't vote.
Why?
Also - do you have thoughts on anyone/anything else?
Why is L-2 the important factor here?
Thus far all I've seen you do is support scum cases on players without bringing forth any new info/opinions of your own.-

That's fair.
It doesn't excuse them not doing anything else but following other's leads though. I don't see any scum hunting coming from their end.-

1. It is true; you had not been very helpful up to his 84, just defensive. And emotional, and prone to get further emotional, all over-defensive. In that he was right, and in that I agreed.
2. Townies do not need to sweat much about a Day 1 lynch. Without better scumreads, lynching knightmare is no big thing.
3. chilledtea moved to Sayaka Maizono once you reached four votes. Sakura Hana unvoted once you hit five. 85 is good.
4. 144: it is possible you OMGUSed. 175: post references would have been great, but it is like he has conviction to stand by his vote. Not scummy.
1. Do agree that I made some long, methodical post in order to seem helpful that reeked of scum? That sort of rhetoric is scummy imo.
2. I'm not sure what your point is here.
3. chilled was never a serious vote on my wagon, so I don't think he counts. I'm pretty sure I know exactly why he moved his vote to Sayana when he did, plus he was never calling for me to get lynched. Sakura did unvote later but as you've described yourself (and are scum reading her for, I believe?) passively backed down from it. So yes, 85 definitely is exaggerated. To use his own words, who reactedunreasonably?
4. Post 175 is garbage and offers nothing constructive. It's a pop-in post. He doesn't address anything said against him, doesn't interact with me at all, and doesn't mention any suspects. There's nothing to it.-

No new info? Hmmm...wasn't I the one who pointed out that Sakura's reason for voting you wasn't sheeping.
I am seeing some possible connections between people, but without any flips they aren't worth very much.
That's true, you did, but it doesn't mean much for your alignment imo. When I say you aren't bringing new information I mean that I have no idea where you are with anyone. You've mostly been out of the bigger convos and come in to drop a vote on Almost once a case on him starts building.
What is your opinion on the other wagons?
Sakura/Lowell?-

Which Almost50 vote?
And okay, you're symphathetic to Lowell's case. It seems most are. You agree with him that the vote was warranted when he put it down. Okay, fine - I'm cool with that. The issuenowis that we have progressed past that point in the game and yethe is still holding on to it while doing nothing else to help town.
See the difference?-

Personally I am null on Almost50. He has done some stuff that bugs me a little but that could just be his playstyle. I certainly don't think he looks scummier than other players.
Sakura I am leaning town on. I don't really buy into the theory that she, as scum, sees a mislynch building up and decides to switch gears and suss the wagon instead of riding it out. If she pulls off that sort of transition as scum then bravo but tbh after what she scum read me for originally I'm not sure.-

???
Why is A50 flailing and why should he be voting Sakura?-

Lol not gonna happen.
Is this another one of your 'gut' reads? Thus far you're 0/1 on those.
If you want any sort of credibility to start demanding people follow your reads then you might wanna offer something other than your subjective rhetoric.
Did you read change on me? If so, when/why? Do you have any other reads?
Smith is a new player - so how do you think that affects him on the uncertainty point?-
