Townpicks and scumpicks are important for stance analysis and useful information for town.

See aboveadumbro wrote:Nobody's made a large enough slip to push them further then that.
Fair enough. I retract this point.Adumbro wrote:There IS a v/la thread you know, you'd do well to read it prior to accusing people of lurking.
I see your point. That wasn't my only reason for voting him however, again, read the thread.TA wrote:Why is not reading the thread scummy? How does not reading the thread help someone if they are scum?
It is a bs reason to vote someone, and an even more bs reason to justify your vote on someone.
So I could have said the exact same thing except not numbered or bulleted and it would be fine? Come on now, this is the most bullshit thing I've heard since people have tried to convince me that telling jokes are scumtells.TA wrote:Actually all of the last three points on my list were essentially the same, or at least in the same ballpark, and that is the point - when you write a list like you did it makes it seem you have more evidence than you do against someone, it is a way to manufacture weight behind your reasoning especially when you know the reasoning is weak.-

If you have to make a list with a bunch of minor points against him to convince yourself and everyone else, then you don't have a strong case. And pushing a weak case, by making it seem like a strong case, is scummy.Don't ask me to provide self meta-

Townpicks and scumpicks are important for stance analysis and useful information for town.
I got news for you, it's pretty basic analysis to figure out who's the most trusted townie at the end of the day. Scum will figure it out if don't put the information out there.
However taking a stance on whose townie at various points during the day for a variety of different people makes it easier makes it much easier to analyze who has what reads, and probably more importantly, gives us a snapshot of makes it change by comparing townlists at various points of the day.
Actually, I just had this conversation with somebody I play with on smashboards a few days ago.
People being too quick to declare others scum?

While uncommon, winning games through process of elimination is a perfectly viable strategy when there are stand-out town tells, but no stand-out scum tells.
Didn't I quote another RVS post right above one? As well as the majority of posts before that? RVS stops when it stops, you're not the arbitrator of when RVS ends.

Except that isn't all I was doing, but regardless asking people to take stances IS one of the most useful forms of information you can get. It's also a nice way of getting people who need to talk talking.

This has been a standing question since the second post I made on this thread and he has yet to answer it.AdumbroDeus wrote:

i gotta say, wagon on chess looks oppurtunistic
Also, I'm not quite sure what you mean, but your post was an illustration since it obviously wasn't just chesskid who thought it was still RVS.-

You're going to get the exact same answer as before whether I make it bulleted or not...TA wrote:Let me put it another way: why do you think adumbro is scum?
You keep saying this but you never actually explain it... I still have no idea how making a bulleted list is somehow scummy compared to saying the exact same thing unbulleted.TA wrote:If you have to make a list with a bunch of minor points against him to convince yourself and everyone else, then you don't have a strong case. And pushing a weak case, by making it seem like a strong case, is scummy.
As an off note: HOW THE HELL IS VOTING SOMEONE FOR MAKING A BULLETED LIST A 'STRONG CASE'?
@Adumbro- I feel fine not helping scum out kthx. I'll tell you everyone eho I have at least slight scumreads on adn ou can figure out who I'm getting town/null reads on from there:
In no real order: You, chess, veko, Andrew, TA
But the thing is there ARE scum tells. Somehow you seem to be failing to look for them. I'm going to request something from you: reread the thread and tell me who your top 3 scumreads are no matter how slight the reads you have on them are.Adumbro wrote:People being too quick to declare others scum?
While uncommon, winning games through process of elimination is a perfectly viable strategy when there are stand-out town tells, but no stand-out scum tells.
At the time of your post plenty of people were making serious votes. How you connected serious votes to "OMG ITS STILL RVS TIME" I fail to understand (Wait a minute... Why the fuck are we still on this? We should have stopped talking about when the RVS ended a long, long time ago)Adumbro wrote:Didn't I quote another RVS post right above one? As well as the majority of posts before that? RVS stops when it stops, you're not the arbitrator of when RVS ends.
@Adumbro- How scummy do you find Gandalf? Is your vote a vote you plan on keeping or just a pressure vote to get him to talk?
Oh yes, asking one other question and calling out chess for being dumbtown... How could I have missed these earth shattering breakthroughs in scumhunting >.>Adumbro wrote:Except that isn't all I was doing,
If I remember correctly the only person you asked who needed to talk was Kat...Adumbro wrote:but regardless asking people to take stances IS one of the most useful forms of information you can get. It's also a nice way of getting people who need to talk talking.
Andrew knew roughly when the RVS ended. I have no idea what you're talking about.Adumbro wrote:Also, I'm not quite sure what you mean, but your post was an illustration since it obviously wasn't just chesskid who thought it was still RVS.-

You are misrepping the fuck out of this situation. It is NOT because your list was bulleted. It's because your lists was a bunch of bs to justify your vote. You were clearly clawing desperately to anything you could to make your case seem bigger and better than it was, and the reason you felt you needed to justify it so much is becauseDoombunny9 wrote:TA wrote:I still have no idea how making a bulleted list is somehow scummy compared to saying the exact same thing unbulleted.

One of him and Darkhorse is scum, but I have them all mixed up in my head. I'll look through which is which tomorrow, heading off to bed in a few.
RBT needs pressure though.Papa Zito - "Your signature has been blanked...we remove signatures at a users request if said signature references them, or if it quotes from a thread in the Speakeasy, which is not allowed without permission of the poster"-

I'm oh so sorry for thinking that "Writing lists like you did" and "Using lists with a lot of points" means "BS reasons". I just looked back and all my reasons were valid. Care to explain how they are not?TA wrote:You are misrepping the fuck out of this situation. It is NOT because your list was bulleted. It's because your lists was a bunch of bs to justify your vote.
