And If I didn't randomly vote I'd be getting this too... *sigh* Its a loose-loose situation for me.ryan wrote:Vote AmeliaLi
I read your first post where you through up the dice way to vote (totally random I agree) but than you follow Sir Tornado and unvote because "my vote was totally random" seems to me as though you were really trying for the rest of us townies to see you blend in, I don't like people who try to blend.>.> I changed my email on crywolf20084....

Errrrrn. Wrong. Thanks for trying though. Usually I don't even randomly vote. Most of the time I just sit around. But this time I felt like being different and now I'm on the cutting block. Damn.ryan wrote:But Amelia could have been following ST, possibly two scumbuddies that messed up when they were going to unvote.>.> I changed my email on crywolf20084....

Okay Maybe not the cutting block with two votes, but most of the time I like to read what other people are doing and such and be quiet, though taht is been proven ineffective both in this game and the other one. And about the defensive part.... well, its hard not to be defensive playing this game.ryan wrote:2 votes and it's the "cutting block?" You mostly just "sit around?" Thanks for making the case easier on you. Active players don't sit around and wait, nor do they get defensive when a couple of votes are placed on them. Very interesting>.> I changed my email on crywolf20084....

Oh well. Lets not make this into an argument. Thank you for your input.ryan wrote:AmeliaLi: You can't sit around this game and not be accused of a) lurking b) not participating. Ask some questions of your fellow players but sitting around doesn't help us find scum. If you are pro town, finding scum should be your #1 goal NOT reading other people's quotes and being quiet. Those two things will get you on the vote list real quickly.>.> I changed my email on crywolf20084....

A) I was voting off of the dice. Its more suspcious to throw the dice up and not vote rather than vote for and then both do something 'scummy'klopyrev wrote:About the whole unvoting business between ST and AmeliaLi. Has anyone actually noticed that AmeliaLi voted for ST in the first place? If they are both mafia, as some have suggested, that would have been a sneaky move on AmeliaLi's side. Considering its the first move of the game, its just plainly odd and stupid, isn't it? Therefore, AmeliaLi and ST can't both by scum.
B) I agree with you on that one and everyone does get defensive.curiouskarmadog wrote:I do not agree with the defensive play mode theory. I think mafia and town alike get defensive when their head is on a block. If someone accuses you of doing something scummy, most people’s first reaction is to defend their actions…which will then have retorts, and retorts to retorts, and so on.
C) I had a C...but I forgot it. I'll post for now but when my C comes back to me, I'll post it.>.> I changed my email on crywolf20084....

And yes I realize i just screwed up the whole dice thing. But It came out one so I went to the list and Sir Tornado was the frist one.Sir Tornado wrote:
There is a problem in that theory.Dral wrote:
True. I guess I would fall into the second category. But so far, there really isn't alot of content in the game.Jester wrote:I agree with this completely. The four fastest ways to show up on my particular scum radar are to:
:arrow: say literally nothing (no posts at all);
:arrow: say nothing (post, but create posts with no game content in them);
:arrow: concentrate on the "guilty" instead of being specific about who might be guilty and who might not be guilty and why; and,
:arrow: to get into a defensive play mode and concentrate on defense to the exclusion of offense.
Generally, scum will do one of the last two things, but not both. Right now, Lowell, Nano, and klopyrev are doing the first; curiouskarmadog and Dral are doing the second; Indy's doing the third; and Amelia's doing the last.
Want a comment on klop? I agree he is just a newbie who didn't know what to do. Voting for himself was probably a joke.
Want a comment on ST and AmeliaLi? Seems like this has already been discussed too much.I guess its possible in pre-game that ST sent a message to AmeliaLi and said "Hey, do a "random" vote on my early to throw people off. Just don't forget to unvote!" Then when AleliaLi saw ST's unvote, she thought "Oh shoot! I forgot to unvote!" and quickly unvoted.But I doubt it.
I do agree that Ryan seems town and is actively searching for scum. Or does he just want us to think that??

What do you mean by "screwed up the whole dice thing"?AmeliaLi wrote:And yes I realize i just screwed up the whole dice thing. But It came out one so I went to the list and Sir Tornado was the frist one.
No, but I guess over defending something is gonna get us lynched just as fast as you guys can speculate on a mere coincidence.Dral wrote:oops, I never knew anything about this dice thing. Its suppose to give a random number that you can't change? I didn't know that. Seems kind of silly. Just pick a name vote. It would be just as random. Both of you seem very defensive over this issue. Within minutes both jumped all over my post. Trying to hide something?
And when you think about it: you've already killed this coincidence, go find another one and then I might be able to help find reasons why that person is possible scum!>.> I changed my email on crywolf20084....

And I highly agree to that statement. Hence why I orignally said lynch the lurkers!ryan wrote:Sir Tornado: Pressuring lurkers is sometimes our best route in getting some content. If people aren't going to post, won't reply to their prods, I'd rather see them replaced BUT I have no problem putting a little pressure on somebody who is posting but not posting content. If they can't handle the pressure they will be no help to us in the end game when it comes to mafia pressuring them and causing us to lose.

Okay. I just re read through all my posts, and holy shit, I'm acting Anti-Town. Other than that I have really nothing to add to this. Ryan has asked all the good questions and I agree with the whole he's actingtoo-twon. But he hasn't given me reason to say the too-town thing is really bad. I've seen what he's done first hand!>.> I changed my email on crywolf20084....

Okay. To start off this seems like a bit of a bandwagon vote to me, seeing as how everyone thinks my 'Lynch The Lukers' strategoy was awfully scumy, and I do agree, but I will resate it was just a joke.klopyrev wrote:With 7 to lynch, I think it'd be safe for me to put my vote on AmeliaLi! She's the most suspicious right now. Sir Tornado hasn't said anything in a while, has he?
Unvote. Vote AmeliaLi
Or they will use me as a scapegoat because I've done things that are awfully anti-town, and I look back and am wondering what the hell I was thinking. But it has been said and I can't go back to change that.Sir Tornado wrote:So, my suspicions on him have lifted. I would also keep my eye on whoever tries to push for Kloprev lynch. He is the perfect candidate for the scum to make a scapegoat of and claim he seemed scummy if/when he turns out to be town the next day.

Does this seem a little strange to anyone? . I've rarely seen anyone say "I'd think it'd be safe" before they vote before.

Yeah... If he is scum, the town might actually have an advantage. If he has a power role: Have fun killing us off, scum.ryan wrote:I would hope that he wouldn't have a power role.

1) I saw you unvote and I’d rather not leave a random vote. Your unvote triggered mine.Sir Tornado wrote:Questions I want answered by AmeliaLi failing which FOS would turn into a vote:
1) In Post 44 you unvoted along with me. In it's explanation, you stated in Post 90 that your unvote was "coincidence". However, you say in the same post, that you unvoted after seeing me unvote. Now...
Coincidence = We just happened to be unvoting at the same time
Unvoting after seeing me unvote and thinking "That's a good idea" = Trying to follow me.
Two totally different things. What exactly were you doing?
2. In Post 46 you accepted Klopyrev's reasons for self voting. However, in Post 51 you sayit is highly suspicious.
Why the sudden change of heart in the space of 5 posts and 212 minutes?
3. In Post 135 you say "Let's lynch them(lurkers)". Yet, quite soon, on being questioned by Ryan you change your position and say "I was joking when I said lynch them"?
This really doesn't make any sense at all to me. Sorry. I hope you can tell me how to make sense of it all.
2) I wasn’t changing my heart, I was merely stating the different reasons why he might do such a thing.
3) I knew that I would never be able to get everyone together on the same boat to lynch the lukers. It was more trying to get people out to have more content.
And the question is, when I turn out to be a scapegoat for all the scum out there, then what happens? The scum has their way and have effectively wrapped the town around their finger.klopyrev wrote:Hmm... after not being here for several days, I find AmeliaLi at -1. That's interesting. I still have no opinion what-so-ever, but I feel like I should withdraw my vote not wanting to lynch a townie just trying to defend herself.

Thank you for answering my questions.
What is your scumlist right now?
Mine?
Hm.
Klop is really making me uneasy. In the last week, I think its been, his posts went from being one-liner newb questions, to an over eager bandwagoner, and now he's defending himself in larger posts. Though I think it'd help if he broke up his thoughts....
I think his argument is rather weak because scum usually don't want attention drawn to them by a quick vote.Klop wrote:This may be a WIFOM argument, but if I was mafia, how would changing my mind of AmeliaLi all the time benefit me? You're saying that its a scum tell, but I don't completely understand how? Don't mafia want to vote on one town, so that the town is lynched as soon as possible?
Nanosauromo has only posted enough to not be called a serious lurker.
Once again, I think the argument is kinda weak. I think he could take what was stated and put it into his own thoughts and add a little bit to it.Nano wrote:...by the time I form an opinion about someone, someone else has already posted a "Why [playername] Is Scummy" analysis, so all I can do is agree with what's already been stated.
Curisous isn't high on my list. Though he hasn't said much other than the lurkers need to get out of the shadow.
Ryan is starting to make me nervous. I'm not sure what he was thinking in 328, but the reason why I havn't voted yet is because I don't have a solid opinon on anyone yet.
the_Red_c hasn't really been around that much to get me nervous or anything like that. But I don't like how he joined the bandwagon of me putting me at -2 before you unvoted. And he never really added anything to the conversation other than he thinks klop is more town than me.
ST you havn't said much either except for asking me those questions. You are one of the few that I have really no opinion on yet.
...I think that's everything. Though the way I listed everyone is not in the order of scumminess.... I really don't have an order yet... My opinion is really flexible right now....>.> I changed my email on crywolf20084....

Thank you oh so much for explaining that. But you failed to explian why I was included in that. You only mentioned Klop.ryan wrote:Post 328. I'd be happy to explain. I find it interesting how Kloppy has gone from (as you say) newbie posts to bandwagon jumper BUT won't put his money where his thoughts are. He seems to be making better posts but not dropping a vote. Anytime I see that it always strikes me as somebody who doesn't want to vote a townie and would rather see somebody get lynched and than say "well that's why I didn't put a vote on him/her" its a scum tactic that could be going on here.>.> I changed my email on crywolf20084....

But usually someone has something more to add. I don't know how many times i've heard 'Yes i concur, however I think blah blah blah...' And its usually one line but its something else.Sir Tornado wrote:
That's it! That's why he is the more dangerous as a scum than Klopyrev. Everyone is onto you and Klopyrev, but not him. Not a single FOS.

I think that is retarted. Ryan and ST strike me the most likely to be town. And you are just plain STUPID. Curious isn't high on the town list but he's not that high on the scum list either.klopyrev wrote:Hmm... ok, I'm taking my vote off ryan, because I'm more convinced of him being an aggresive townie after reading Jester's post. However, I'm putting it on curiouskarmadog, following the same argument as Jester. I'm only suspicious of ST and curious right now.
Unvote. Vote curiouskarmadog
And you need to make up your own opinions and vote on them. Not mainly on what others say.>.> I changed my email on crywolf20084....

Frist off I would like to say nice one liners. Don't you have some depth?
This one could be forgiven because that topic was already killed by ryan.Nanosauromo wrote:
He was wrong to attack her over such a trivial thing such as the dice, and you for voting for Kyloprev.Nanosauromo: Can we finally have some sort of proper response from you? If you feel nothing is worth commenting about, then I'll make it a bit easier:
What do you think of:
1) Me and AmeliaLi getting attacked by Ryan early on and then being defensive.
Yeah, It could be terrible, if the lurkers are all townie. I was trying to help get some of the conversation stirred up and it was slightly sucessful.
As I've stated before, lynching all lurkers is a horrid idea.2) AmeliaLi's comments about lurkers
Don't you have something else to say to this. I mean c'mon! I know a lot has been said, but some eyes see things in a different light. Some thinks he's stupid, other thinks he's really bad scum.
As far as I can tell, Klopyrev is only voting for them because they voted for him. This is OMGUS and is bad.3) Klopyrev's suspicion of CuriousKarmaDog (CKD), Ryan and Me
Uhhh... ya think? You havn't been on much thus not brining out scum. And as I read this, I was sitting here thinking that you hanvn't possed questions to anyone else.
I'll admit that he brings up valid points against me, and I do look like I'm not really doing anything. I'm trying to remedy that.4) Jester's two posts on the last page.
This is the one thing I do agree with what you've said. He's doing some double talking methinks.
He's saying that it's scummy to not jump on a bandwagon. Saying this has knocked him up a point on the Scum-o-meter.5) Lowell's comments on the last page.
I have to revert to OMGUS because that post is just really stupid.
He's been very helpful, and I agree with his scumlist. (Except, of course, myself.) He's a great townie.6) Numenorean7's scumlist and his general play so far.
Ticked much?
Was that good enough, Your Highness?Fail to answer these questions in reasonable period of time satisfactorily and I vote for you.
By reasonable period of time, I mean 18 hours.
By "satisfactorily" I mean answers which are not one-lined and echoing someone else's comments.
Okay. Now I have question for you.
Ryan, Numenorean, and you are the ones I think are least likely to be scum.Lastly: You have given us your scum list. How about your townie list?

Who the hell are you to talk about scum-tells Mr.-I-wanna-vote-for-myself-*stupidgrin*?klopyrev wrote:ryan: You argument against Sir Tornado at this point is ridiculous. Threatening to vote for someone and not actually doing it is the most ridiculous scumtell, if it is one at all.
Anyway, as for my vote for curiouskarmadog, did anyone actually notice that I put him on my scum list before Jester even said anything? He just struck me as scummy right away. Jester just convinced me even more by discussing his actions. My opinion of curiouskarmadog is concrete right now. I really think he's mafia.
And about your little 'list' I need to go look that up before I say something on that.>.> I changed my email on crywolf20084....

Okay Klopy-boy. The ONLY time you mentioned CKD was in the very begining, post #93, and you only voted for him because he was not here very much right after the random vote stage where ryan was burning ST and mine's asses.
And this is what you said:
And as I read that post over and over again. IT'S ALL NEWB QUESTIONS!Klopy-Boy wrote:I still don't understand the explanation of why voting for yourself is scummy. Can someone explain it to me again? Anyway, I have several more questions: What is leading? What is WIFOM? And to contribute to the discussion. Why is it that people who are inactive blaimed? If you are town and are sitting around watching the action, instead of contributing, wouldn't you be able to understand the behaviour of everyone else. In another game I'm playing, I made 2 very stupid posts since the beginning of the game and have been trying to defend myself ever since. If I stayed quite, I could have found out more about other people. Also, how is trying to defend yourself too much a scummy thing? I'm not very experienced, but as a town, I don't want to be lynched in the beginning of the game. That would mean the end of the game for me, since I can't contribute anymore. I would be bored not playing a game. Hmm... anyway, no one has voted for both curiouskarmadog and Lowell, I'll vote for the lexographically least.

And I'm back. First off, I want to say I posted for Klopy-boy because he seems like the most scummy to me, and I voted for him then just incase the day was ended while I was gone. I didn’t want to have no say when the hammer was sent down.
Now for my analysis on everything that has gone on while I’ve been away.
[quote="Numenorean7]I get a distinctly different flavor from his posts in 403 (especially his last four) than I get from his behavior this game. Sure, there isn't much to go on, but he demonstrated some good thinking regarding EmpTyger, and he didn't do anything that scummy. Also notice that he never self-voted, just asked if he could. I'm pretty certain I wouldn't have voted for klopyrev in 403. Yes, hindsight is 20-20, but I just don't find anything scummy in his play. Transmission was very wrong to hammer.
IMO, klop has been acting like newbie-scum in this game, and he didn't in that game.[/quote]
I like what you had to say here Nume. I really just don’t like what Klop did. I’ve already stated that I think he is newb-scum. And I put my vote on him, because that is the one I want to see gone.
I find this post interesting. We haveklopyrev wrote:You're right, there aren't many posts from the previous game for you to go on. As for this game, can you do the same thing as you did for my previous game by posting all my important posts?

I would love to refute it.alreadygone through and posted all of his posts to a certain point, and I think it’s time for someone to do it again.

I’ve been noticing that as well. The conversation rolls on but more and more people drop out of it until the four you mentioned go back to talking. It really gets on my nerves because there isn’t much left to form an opinion, other than we have a rather large set of lurkers.”Jester” wrote: Something of interest about pages 16 versus page 17. After my long posts at the bottom of page 15, just about everyone jumped into the game and wrote stuff, for most of a page, all day Monday. By Tuesday afternoon, though, we're back to ryan, klopyrev, Sir Tornado, and AmeliaLi writing just about everything. This has been a recurring pattern throughout this game so far.
This is where "saying literally nothing" pops people up on my radar. When you sit out the game except when you're directly nudged, poked, prodded, or voted on, that to me is a scum-tell. Is it enough to lynch someone just based on that? Of course not. But then when you combine literal nothing with posted nothings (Nano, for instance), that to me is enough to lynch someone.
This is where my opinion begins to change on several things. I agree with Jester here that CKD and Nano. CKD, though I think he’s still out there and nowhere near scummy enough to vote for or FOS him, is hiding in plain sight. Yes, I know he’s on vacation right now so there will be nothing from him, but he is hiding behind the proverbial bush that has 10 leaves on it and as he begins to beat around it more and more leaves fall down, leaving him exposed.”Jester” wrote:
I answered this question also, in my 373. I notice that you responded to nothing about you that I posted in my 373. You and Nano seem to have just decided that you're not going to be able to convince me you're not scum, so you're just going to ignore me and hope that nobody else is convinced.curiouskarmadog wrote:the question still stands (because I think only ryan answered it) What if they were lynched and it comes up they were town, what next?
Nano… Nano is just being stupid. He’s done absolutely nothing. As already pointed out, his post in 465 has no content other than he pointed at the fact Klopy-boy was being stupid with his posts.
Good point Klop. Good Defense Ryan. I hope to god you are town ryan, because if you are not, then we, the town, is in deep shit.ryan wrote:
Klopy: I have been consistent on saying you or AmeliaLi are the best lynches for today. I ask people questions on their voting because I am trying to find "tells" and how you'd vote me after you just freely admitted that Sir Tornado put AmeliaLi at -1 is beyond me, but most of your play is.klopyrev wrote:After reading over about half of the total posts, I find that most of the things I figured out have already been stated by other people, thus I don't have much to say. However, I did notice several important things. Around post 250, AmeliaLi was at -3. ryan, whose vote was on me, saw this and decided to put AmeliaLi on -2. This was post 254. This was note very suspicious by itself. However, this was how the game continued from then on. Ryan asked why Sir Tornado didn't vote on AmeliaLi when he found her suspicious. He urged him to vote on her to put her on -1. This was in post 257. Right after that, Sir Tornado voted for her and put her on -1. Right after getting Sir Tornado's vote, ryan questioned the_Red_c about his opinion of the game. Was ryan fishing for his vote to lynch AmeliaLi? That's what it seemed like to me. All of this happened in a matter of a few posts and nobody noticed.
Another interesting thing was that curiouskarmadog took AmeliaLi off -1 and put his vote on me. Several posts later, when ryan saw that people very taking votes off of her, he decided that I am a good candidate for mafia.
To summarize, here are my thoughts. ryan has shown a huge scumtell, or so it seems to me. I don't really have an opinion on Sir Tornado. Even though he put AmeliaLi on -1, he only did it after being pressured by the most town player in the game. As for curiouskarmadog... My suspicion is lifted off of him. Thus:
Unvote. vote ryan
I don't have any more time today, but I will try to catch up with the rest of the game at another time. I'll already spent 2 hours today.

Thank you Nume for doing these first posts. I shall be continuing from where he left off.Numenorean7 wrote:I was going to point you back to some PBPA, but I find there isn't any. I think I will analyze your posts so far and try to explain why you're scummy. Perhaps this will also help codify my own suspicions:
(post # sorting by klop's posts)
#1
This is a bad start. I'm not quite sure why, but self-voting is often seen as anti-town. You are pretty much excused from this by the metagame, and your next post provides an explanation: "I'm just bored and random."klopyrev wrote:vote klopyrev !!! Can I vote for myself?
#3
There are rules in newbie games too. Why didn't you read them? In any case, this smacks of the "newbie card", trying to get out of anything you do because you're a newbie. What parts of your behavior are just newbishness and what parts are scummishness is for the town to decide, not you.klopyrev wrote:Well, considering that its my first game(Well second including the one I'm playing in Road to Rome), this was the first time I actually read any set of rules.
#4
What is the benefit of self-voting for anyone, mafia or townie? I still don't understand the problem with self-voting, but this is a flawed argument. If self-voting looked pro-town, Mafia would immediately do it to look pro-town. This is WIFOM. Besides, you had just aptly demonstrated that things are sometimes done which do not benefit the person who did them.klopyrev wrote:I'm just wondering how voting for myself is anti-town? If I'm mafia, why would I want to vote for myself? What would be the benefit of that?
#5
A single townie death is not as bad for the town as a single Mafia death is for the Mafia. Thus, the Mafia will be more defensive. The Mafia are also trying very hard not to be discovered, so they will be more likely to feel defensive when they think they may be being discovered.klopyrev wrote:I still don't understand the explanation of why voting for yourself is scummy. Can someone explain it to me again? Anyway, I have several more questions: What is leading? What is WIFOM? And to contribute to the discussion. Why is it that people who are inactive blaimed?

vote curiouskarmadog
By the way, if you are killed in one game, you can sign up for a new one right away. You don't have to wait for the first one to end.

First of all, voting for yourself is somewhat odd and stupid, so you're not one to talk.klopyrev wrote:About the whole unvoting business between ST and AmeliaLi. Has anyone actually noticed that AmeliaLi voted for ST in the first place? If they are both mafia, as some have suggested, that would have been a sneaky move on AmeliaLi's side. Considering its the first move of the game, its just plainly odd and stupid, isn't it? Therefore, AmeliaLi and ST can't both by scum.
In this post, you are employing a classic WIFOM argument (perhaps the most classic). Scum will sometimes "random" vote each other to give them some slight distancing without any real danger. Voting each other has no bearing on whether two people are scum together or not. Defending these two people (especially at this point) is a risky thing to do, as it links you to them.
#11
Referring to an ongoing game by name is a no-no. You're sounding a bit ruffled and hostile here. Note-keeping questions are newbish in the extreme: there's no correct way to keep notes, you just... keep notes. Not everyone does.klopyrev wrote:I'll even help you out a bit! I just wondered if I can vote for myself without actually voting in game 403 of The Road to Rome. Satisfied? To continue with the game, I have a question for the more experienced people. How do you keep notes? I keep reading different posts over and over, but there are just too many for me to base my opinion about anything. How do you keep notes? What do you write down and what do you not write down?

This is a weird post. You're agreeing that Amelia's post was strange, but wondering whether it was townie or scummy. This is OK, but the way you do it is weird. It is true that pretty much any move could be interpreted as either townie or scum, but it's customary to say which you think is more likely. Of course you don'tklopyrev wrote:To agree with ryan, AmeliaLi's post was really strange. I've played for very little, but I can still say that that was a very unusual move by AmeliaLi. She could be a town trying to defend herself from all the attacks however. My conclussion is: Who the hell is the mafia? I'm soooooo confused.knowwho is Mafia, but you must have some idea. There's no need to say, "who the hell is the Mafia? I'm so confused." This post comes across as an attempt to defend AmeliaLi by casting doubt on the town's ability to discern scummy behavior.

People have been accusing you of playing it too safe, and here's an example. This comes across as scum hoping to not attract attention. Of course, you could be referring to the fact that there's no danger of a scum hammer, but that was fairly obvious. Also, this was a big flip-flop on your part. You had been defending AmeliaLi (#7, possibly #16), and now you vote her with no explanation but that "it would be safe". Putting her at L-3 isn't all that safe, anyway.klopyrev wrote:With 7 to lynch, I think it'd be safe for me to put my vote on AmeliaLi! She's the most suspicious right now. Sir Tornado hasn't said anything in a while, has he?
Unvote. Vote AmeliaLi
#20
There is no reason to place your vote on AmeliaLi if you don't think she's scum, especially when she's got a bandwagon. There's no guarantee she won't be put at L-1, or even lynched, while you're gone. This is another very scummy post: defending AmeliaLi while leaving your vote on her bandwagon. If you don't think she's scum, you shouldn't be voting against her, especially if there's a large bandwagon.klopyrev wrote:Hmm... To answer AmeliaLi's post... I was jumping on the bandwagon with the vote on her. Considering I was going away for 4 days, she was the best place to put my vote and I didn't really want to not vote. Anyway, I'm wondering why everyone is so suspicious of Indy. He's just not here. You all should be focusing on people who are here. I know that it makes sense for a mafia to not say anything to keep suspicion of themselves, but there are several other mafia we could try to find in the meantime. To repeat another post: Townies often act more scummy than actual scum when heavily pressured. I believe that would be AmeliaLi's situation. Also, since when has Sir Tornado been analyzing things. This was the first time I've seen him act as a vigilant townie (though I may be wrong) I currently don't have a concrete opinion on who is scum and who is not. Since my vote is still safe on AmeliaLi(safe meaning she's not at -1), I'm keeping it there.
#22
Now, your vote on AmeliaLi is no longer "safe" by your definition. Given your past comments and reasons for voting Amelia, you should unvote her immediately, because you never thought she was scum in the first place. But now you say, "AmeliaLi is the best candidate for scum." This is a major flip-flop. You don't even explain your change, but go from considering her a townie who's panicking under pressure, to the most likely scum. Another very scummy post.klopyrev wrote:
Hmm... after not being here for several days, I find AmeliaLi at -1. That's interesting. I still have no opinion what-so-ever, but I feel like I should withdraw my vote not wanting to lynch a townie just trying to defend herself. However, I feel that AmeliaLi is the best candidate right now for scum, so I'm just going to keep it as it is. Wasn't this post completely pointless?
#23
Here, you're unvoting at the call of the town. Voting or unvoting just because someone tells you is often a scumtell. In this post, you have completed and reaffirmed your sudden change of heart regarding AmeliaLi. Of course you're not completely convinced she's scum. If you think she is probably scum, you should keep your vote on. If you still actually think she's probably a townie, you should unvote (you should have several posts ago). But instead, you say you think she's probably scum, and unvote in the same post. Unvoting now won't fix it, and the way you did it just made things worse. In addition, you're FoS'ing ryan for no apparent reason. Something about Sir Tornado's argument for AmelaiLi's contradictions. How does this apply to ryan? I am suspicious of anyone who's suspicious of ryan at this point.klopyrev wrote:How the hell is that scummy? I'm saying that I'm still not completely convinced that AmeliaLi is scum, but since I don't have a better candidate, I'll keep my vote on her. I know its day one, but everyone is a bit jumpy, mostly ryan. He keeps changing opinions constantly. And people blame AmeliaLi for her contradictions. I'm following, I think, Sir Tornado's argument for AmeliaLi's contradictions and applying it to ryan.
ok... I was just about to change my vote to ryan, but then I actually read his posts and saw that my point is not so obvious reading a second time over. For now:
Unvote
FoS: ryan
#24
If she's the best candidate, you shouldn't have unvoted. Still no explanation of why you suddenly think she's likely scum.klopyrev wrote:I'm sorry I'm undecisive! I'll try to be more decisive when there is something more concrete to go on. I still don't fully believe that AmeliaLi is scum, but she's the best candidate at the moment. I guess I'll never be fully certain that someone is scum in this game.
#25
Defending Red because he's a replacement is not good logic. Curiouskarmadog did this in another game we are playing together, and it was an important catalyst for an L-1 wagon (incidentally, led by me). There are plenty of reasons Mafia might quit a game: perhaps they feel guilty about deceiving the town, or perhaps something in real life got in the way?klopyrev wrote:I unvoted already. But Wow, the game is over in 3 pages? WTF... I think that it was my fault:( I'll try to be careful next time. I'll try to be more careful in this game too. Anyway, I currently don't know who to vote for, so I'm not going to vote. Also, I believe the_Red_c to be Town, because a Mafia wouldn't quit a game. (Well, at least I wouldn't since I like being mafia more than town) Anyone else have a point of view on this?
#26
Acknowledging your flawed reasoning about replacements (more than curiouskarmadog did).klopyrev wrote:I'm basing my opinion on what I would do, which could be completely wrong.
#29
The way you play online is very different from the way you play in person. Live Mafia is based much more on gut. In MS.net Mafia, there's a lot of material which anyone can look over, sort, and analyze at will. Everyone is also a lot more careful of what they type here than of what they would say in person. Scumtells are different, perhaps more subtle, but easier to identify and build up a case with. The rules are the same, but the play is very different.klopyrev wrote:No, I'm not scum. WTF is this? Every time I try to point out something minor, everyone jumps on me and starts saying I'm scum. What kind of game is this? I know it's the first day and everyone wants to lynch a mafia, but you guys are a bit too paranoid. Maybe it's because I'm used to games which are a bit more relaxed (not online), but calm down. What I was trying to say is that I enjoy playing mafia much more than I do playing town. That doesn't mean I'm mafia in this game. I enjoy playing power roles more than playing just normal town. That doesn't mean I'm a power role in this game either. What can I say? Townie is a boring role for me. What I'm also trying to say is if I was playing a game and had to leave, I would think twice about leaving if I was a mafia. Using that logic, the_Red_c is possibly town, because he's a replacement for someone who left.

This post is actually sounding a bit pro-town to me, acknowledging your mistakes, etc. Of course, scum can say anything town can say...klopyrev wrote: I don't know why you would think I'm mafia in the first place. I know I've done stupid things in this game, but that's because I didn't know better. Give me your reasons why you think I'm scum right now, and I'll try to refute them.
I believe the biggest point against you is your behavior regarding AmeliaLi. Why did you defend her in #7, vote her in #19, defend her yet keep your vote on in #20, and call her most likely scum from #22 onward?
Unlike what Nume did I’m going to be posting the post number, not the number of how many posts he’s done. (I hope that makes sense….)
327:
The one thing I don’t like about this post is he’s all over the place. He’s trying to defened himself with out sounding too newbish, but at the same time trying not to be scummy.klopyrev wrote:Hmm... In response to the accusations of me: I'm sorry I'm undecisive. I keep posting stuff, because I arrive on Mafiascum and I want to say something before I go. Since I don't have much to say, I just post whatever comes to mind at the moment. That's why some things I say may be contradictory. As for the AmeliaLi business. I kept changing my mind. Since I had no concrete evidence to go on, I couldn't decide. At one moment, she seemed scum, at another, just a really defensive town. Currently, I once again think she's scum, just because of the way her attack on me is worded. It is perhaps too agressive. Sounds like: "Um... um... I'm not scum... He's scum..." AmeliaLi playing that card in this situation really makes her look scummy to me. However, I may change my opinion at any moment, which is not necessarily a scummy thing. This may be a WIFOM argument, but if I was mafia, how would changing my mind of AmeliaLi all the time benefit me? You're saying that its a scum tell, but I don't completely understand how? Don't mafia want to vote on one town, so that the town is lynched as soon as possible?
Then he disappears for the rest of page 14, then on page 15 in post number 355 he votes for ryan with no explination then in 356 he writes:klopyrev wrote:Vote ryan
I've made up my mind. I think ryan and Sir Tornado are scum and my opinion is pretty concrete. Look at ryan: He's being trying to lynch either me or AmeliaLi from the very beginning. He's hiding his mafia attack by saying he's just an aggresive townie. I really think he's scum. Sir Tornado is also scum, because he focuses too much on lynching a single person, rather than discovering who the Mafia are. He's too quick to form opinion. AmeliaLi on the other hand seems like more of a defensive townie.
Here he is defending me again, which wasn’t helping at all, and he explains his vote…sorta. But I must say he’s pissed at ryan for going after him (Klopy-boy) and myself. Then he says ST is too quick to form an opinion. . . .The one thing that can’t belived that he’s attacking the two most likely town.
357:
I would like to note that is his second time mentioning CKDklopyrev wrote:Further more, I wish to add curiouskarmadog to the list of scum. He's been supporting ryan for a while now.
378 is his next post.
Newb question.. X.x C’mon! Who, other than Klop, didn’t understand that sentence?klopyrev wrote:
I may be misunderstanding this, but what exactly do you mean by that sentence? Do you think Jester is mafia, then?ryan wrote:WOW. Jester gets back in the mafia saddle in a big way.
384:
third mention of CKD…. He really didn’t have much of a reason other than agreeing with what Jester had stated.klopyrev wrote:Hmm... ok, I'm taking my vote off ryan, because I'm more convinced of him being an aggresive townie after reading Jester's post. However, I'm putting it on curiouskarmadog, following the same argument as Jester. I'm only suspicious of ST and curious right now.
Unvote. Vote curiouskarmadog
Then in 402:
This is where I attack Klop about the scum list. I really just didn’t like it. If you say you have a scum list, please state it. It really helps.klopyrev wrote:ryan: You argument against Sir Tornado at this point is ridiculous. Threatening to vote for someone and not actually doing it is the most ridiculous scumtell, if it is one at all.
Anyway, as for my vote for curiouskarmadog, did anyone actually notice that I put him on my scum list before Jester even said anything? He just struck me as scummy right away. Jester just convinced me even more by discussing his actions. My opinion of curiouskarmadog is concrete right now. I really think he's mafia.
411:
Why ignore the posts? I think that is stupid to ignore posts about you.klopyrev wrote:Read posts 356 and 356. Initially I thought ryan was the scum, but after reading his posts over again, I changed my mind to curiouskarmadog. I didn't even realize he was the one calling me a VI. I pretty much ignored those posts.
Posts 419-422 was just stupid. I’m not sure why ryan calls you Klopy, but I call you klopy-boy everytime I wanna scream OMGUS at you.
424,427-428 once again has no point to it.
433:
This is because we quoted what he said in his other game. Which What he posted over there was really stupid as well….klopyrev wrote:You're right, there aren't many posts from the previous game for you to go on. As for this game, can you do the same thing as you did for my previous game by posting all my important posts? After you do that, tell me something that you think makes me seem distinctly newbie mafia. I would love to refute it.
435-437 was still about his old game.
461:
*Holds her breath* I hope… I hope, I hope, I HOPE ryan is not scum(for many reasons, the main one being that he’s got everyone convinced he’s town). This is where my opinion begins to change about klop… I am not sure about him or ryan anymore. This is where he jumps out of that newb personality and right into an active member of the town.klopyrev wrote:After reading over about half of the total posts, I find that most of the things I figured out have already been stated by other people, thus I don't have much to say. However, I did notice several important things. Around post 250, AmeliaLi was at -3. ryan, whose vote was on me, saw this and decided to put AmeliaLi on -2. This was post 254. This was note very suspicious by itself. However, this was how the game continued from then on. Ryan asked why Sir Tornado didn't vote on AmeliaLi when he found her suspicious. He urged him to vote on her to put her on -1. This was in post 257. Right after that, Sir Tornado voted for her and put her on -1. Right after getting Sir Tornado's vote, ryan questioned the_Red_c about his opinion of the game. Was ryan fishing for his vote to lynch AmeliaLi? That's what it seemed like to me. All of this happened in a matter of a few posts and nobody noticed.
Another interesting thing was that curiouskarmadog took AmeliaLi off -1 and put his vote on me. Several posts later, when ryan saw that people very taking votes off of her, he decided that I am a good candidate for mafia.
To summarize, here are my thoughts. ryan has shown a huge scumtell, or so it seems to me. I don't really have an opinion on Sir Tornado. Even though he put AmeliaLi on -1, he only did it after being pressured by the most town player in the game. As for curiouskarmadog... My suspicion is lifted off of him. Thus:
Unvote. vote ryan
I don't have any more time today, but I will try to catch up with the rest of the game at another time. I'll already spent 2 hours today.
Then in 462-464 he’s back to being a weird ass newb that makes no sense.
478:
I hope having all your posts side by side help to explain those bells and whistles…..klopyrev wrote:Indy: That was somewhat out of place after not having posted for a long time. What the hell? Explain which bells and whistles I send off.
And that was everything he’s said in this game.
And right now I’m not sure with what I’m going to do. I just have something in the back of my head screaming he’s town, look into ryan more.
but for nowunvote.>.> I changed my email on crywolf20084....
so now i'm on my other account.-

Just reading everyone's views on whats been going on, I have a feeling that Klop might be safe from a short drop and a quick stop today.
I agree with ST, if Klop doesn't go today, then Nano should be the next. Everything he's said has not helped us find the scum.
I also agree with ST about Indy and linking to Numes posts. If Indy is scum, maybe his scum buddies told him to find someones views and cling to them closely without drawing much attentnion to the others.
Ryan: What do you mean by the statement

I wish Nano would SAY SOMETHING MORE than his usual bull shit! But sadly we all know that we're not going to get that wish.
I must say though, I'm going to be watching ryan a lot closer than I have been.
I need to think more about if i'm going to put my vote on Nano, or Klopy, for that matter.>.> I changed my email on crywolf20084....

ryan wrote:Jester: Let me answer your questions/misthoughts
1) Am I the only one that thinks that AmeliaLi and Klopy have exhibited some of the same tendencies? I see a little bit of Klopy in AmeliaLi and vice versa (hence why both are on my scum list)
2) As I asked for earlier, where did I actively say "Vote Klopy or Vote AmeliaLi" My personal opinion is on Klopy at this time and I believe him to be the best first day lynch.
3) Your scum searching and mine might be different. I keep my top two suspects in mind and one other, why throw 5 potential lynches and risk getting somebody mixed up? I also have a few that I feel are town that I watch to see what they do and if they change their habits/tells any. I keep my list small and to the point, guess it's worked before in getting scum so why change it?
4) Again where have I asked a specific player to agree with me and vote Klopy?
Scum List
1) Kloppy
2) AmeliaLi
3) Nanosauromo
Town List
1) MightyFireball
2) Sir Tornado
I'll ask you than ST, where did I say "Vote for Klopy" I've given opinions, posted quotes that I found to be not townie but I never said anyone should follow me if they didn't believe Klopy to be scum.
BLUNTLY you havn't said VOTE FOR KLOP or VOTE FOR AMELIA. But in every post that you analyze the two of us, you drop hints that we'd be the best bet for the day! You've never even thought about the fact that we might be town!
And I hope you realize you're pissing me off by saying 'Oooh, I've never said that! What are you talking about? *shifty eyes*'>.> I changed my email on crywolf20084....
