Fallacies aren't always scumtells. tobi didn't vote for Jdodge only said that he thought he was a good player and required extra watchin'.shaft wrote:Sounds like the classic too townie fallacy. Why aren't more people voting for Tobiassen?
I'm reading him as scum right now. I guess it's because I've been burned in a couple games recently where I gave erratic play too much of the benefit of the doubt and I am trying to adjust accordingly. Two times they've come up scum in my games here, so I'm trying to be more firm in this regard. It seems others think I'm over-reacting. I'll try to get one last re-skim in today to see if my scumdar needs adjusting.pwayne66 wrote:Fallacies aren't always scumtells. tobi didn't vote for Jdodge only said that he thought he was a good player and required extra watchin'.shaft wrote:Sounds like the classic too townie fallacy.

I take it that you think that tobi is more likely very very bad scum than very bad and disinterested newbie. Is this accurate?
I'm not totally against the "lynch all wild cards" philosophy. Even if the person isn't scum, they end up being a liability later in the game.pwayne66 wrote:... on the other hand... I have advocated lynching people just b/c they are obnoxious...

JDodge is very active on site. I haven't played with him, but his general style is to lay fairly low early game. Then turn it up a bit once more information is available (you can see this in his Dasq loves waffles post). It's a very effective style as it gets him through the game without much posting which means dropping fewer scum tells regardless of alignment.TylerJ wrote:yeah tob, post something of actual content I'm being persuaded more and more that you are scum and not just a newb, you don't even try.
Note on Jdodge. I can't reference a game, but I played a game with Jdodge before when he provided no Reasons for voting. He didn't once scum hunt. Town lynched him and he was a town. This could be a scam that he uses to esape the radar when he is scum, I don't know. All I know was that he wasn't contributing at all in the game and he came up town.
I do. He's playing like a clueless newbie. If he was a clueless scum newbie, he'd be clueless while following other people's suspicions and voting for the person most likely to get lynched (in this case, lordy).Dasquian wrote:Does that mean that you think Tobiassen is more likely to be town than scum? If so, why?
