Primarily. I think Patricks point against Glork wasn't intended as anything other than just to get a reaction out of Glork, and I think you picked up a very weak point and used it against Glork in a way that feels to me a little arbitrary. The question I asked you more is aimed at the quoted bit though, yeah, that's right.Incognito wrote:Assmaster, just to clarify, I'm assuming you're talking about this portion of my post?:

To clarify, I think it's weak because it ignores a few points. The main thing it ignores is that I am a massively compulsive lurker who has flaked out of huge amounts of games, which means Glork had no reason to expect I would post, and no reason to suspect I would get any extra suspicion for lurking considering I do that in every single game regardless of alignment going back over a year. It also ignores the fact that when I'm actually playing, I am a player with three years mafia experience and at least couple of dozen completed games as scum, and there is no reason for Glork scum to try and protect me because if I was going to post, which your train of logic assumes, I would have been perfectly able to do myself.
There is no plausible reason for Glork to try and stop me from posting, or block me out of posting in the manner you suggested if we are both scum, and train of thought you expressed behind your original question is flawed.-

In that case, I agree that both of those things I'm calling out Glork for are dependent on context but the thinking behind that post is just based off of my previous experience playing with Glork. Mind you, I've only played with him inAssmaster wrote:

How else would you say that? Glork and I played in a completed game together in which we were both town. If he's town in this game also, then this will be another completed game in which we're both town. I don't see how that implies knowledge.Assmaster wrote:

ps: it should be. Also I wouldn't use the phrase ad homeniem again, it's not a logical fallacy in syllogistical logic like mafia and it just makes it look like you're lying when you try and cite it.
It was the use of the 'but' to imply that the previous game was invalid for some reason but was still valid as a comparison because of the parallel points you stated after. I get that it was because of the one game but it read humorously to me.
Gimmie a suspicion list also, top 4, I don't want cases but rudimentary reasons would be nice.-

I guess the biggest thing I found odd was his whole attack on you yesterday. That never really made much sense to me; he had several posts attacking you, some of them quite long, but the only point he actually made against you that made any sense at all to me was the "if he's scum we'll take care of him tommorow" comment, and that hardly seems enough.Coriolanus wrote:yos: why are you suspicious for glork's play?
Glork is a good enough player that his scum-play dosn't diverge much from his town-play; so even though about 70% of his play yesterday is what I would expect from him as town, including the Xtoxm hammer, the other 30% makes me nervous; more so then if it was someone else.I want us to win just for Yos' inevitable rant alone. -CrashTextDummie-

Pffft. Being "extra nervous" because I am renowned is bullshit and you know it, Yos.
Also, Yos, you really need to go back and read my posts again, if that's ALL you got out of my attacks. I'm going to assume this is an honest mistake, because I don't believe that you as scum, would so blatantly lie about that, but seriously. Terrible play.-

I'm not "extra nervous" because you're renowned, and that's not what I said. I'm just much more on the lookout for possible small differences between your scum playstyle and your town playstyle, because I know full well that small differences are all I'm likely to find if you are scum; everyone is readable to some degree, but with good players the differences between their "town playstyle" and "scum playstyle" is far more subtle, and is much more in the details and the exact direction of their arguments then in more general style issues or more obvious scumtells. And I've always gotten the impression you look over everything I post with the same fine-toothed comb, for the same reasons.Glork wrote:Pffft. Being "extra nervous" because I am renowned is bullshit and you know it, Yos.
From what I saw, it looked like most of your other points were either just rhetoric or line-by-line disagreements that didn't really amount to anything. There's nothing fundimentally wrong with anything you said, but it just dosn't seem to add up to a case.Also, Yos, you really need to go back and read my posts again, if that's ALL you got out of my attacks. I'm going to assume this is an honest mistake, because I don't believe that you as scum, would so blatantly lie about that, but seriously. Terrible play.
(shrug) It's that part of yesterday, the part where you were attacking Corn, where I get some bad vibes from you. I can't really explain it much better then I have, which is why I haven't made a big deal about it yet, but IGMEOY.I want us to win just for Yos' inevitable rant alone. -CrashTextDummie-

Well, they (the statements that is) do definitely not contradict to eachother but why would someone feel the need to investigate someone that theyYos2 wrote:Um...you do realize those two statements kind of agree with each other, EA?firmlybelieve is protown?
With that said, I personally read Glork's post (#301) as; "I believe he is protown but one can never know for sure".
With that also said, if hefirmlybelieved dahill1 to be protown, he would probably have a good read on him already. Therefore no reason for further "investigations".-

I am very sorry, but work commitments will keep me from playing this game with the commitment I should give this game. I PM'ed OMGL to seek a replacement for me. If he doesn't find one, I'll continue to play, but to be honest, I won't have enough time to do more then a quick-read every now and then.
