So you think you know me now, eh, Panzer? After playing one game with me as scum?
Sorry, but your radar is off on this one. That was a fun game, though, wasn't it?
I'm quite curious what your meta reason is though... I am not aware of any tells I may have, and anything you think you've discovered is definitely not a tell since I am of opposite alignment this time around.
Anyway, back to the game... I have a list of players I trust at this point and players I am still not sure about. I'll share so we can see who agrees and who thinks I'm off my rocker:
Trust:
Phate
Korlash
kabenon (yes I know I suspected him, he's changed my mind)
Holy
SensFan
Drunken Piper
Unsure:
Thanatos
QuickBen
Suspicious:
Zhao
Panzerjager
Jex
Here's my cases on the "suspicious" characters, starting with
Zhao
.
Zhao wrote:This plan will not work;
too many holes to exploit.
Phate is suspicious.
OK, even if you disagree with Phate's plan, at least he is trying to propose something to help the town in a game with a rather unusual setup. I doubt scum is going to be bold enough to put forth a plan like this so early in the game, therefore I immediately put Phate in the "trusted" category. Zhao seems to equate bad plan with scum, which seems disingenuous to me, and not a true townie-thought-process, so I became suspicious when Zhao said Phate was suspicious. Sure, scum could come up with a bad plan that would benefit scum more than town, but that is SO risky, and Phate's plan doesn't strike me that way.
Zhao wrote:Hey Sensfan, your buddy Phate is taking alot of flak for this plan, aren't you going to speak up? As the original proponent of it, I would have expect more discussion from you. You've haven't mentioned anything about it for 3 pages now.
I'm also suspicious of OTM, he seems to be flipping.
I don't see much purpose behind this post, other than to try to establish a link between SensFan and Phate (which I never saw) and also to try to stir up conflict between townies. Seems like a reach to call out SensFan for not posting about the plan at this point. And then he throws in suspicion of me in there, too, when I clearly explained why I was questioning the plan.
Later, Zhao explained this post by saying he thought Phate's and SensFan's plans were one and the same? That seems impossible to me, for a townie evaluating plans to make that mistake, when SensFan was actually quite critical of Phate's plan. The original post still seems to come from suspect motivations.
As far as
Panzerjager
goes, I have a metareason too. His posting style reminds me of when he was scum. Admittedly, I haven't played with him as town yet, so that's a pretty weak reason. But, since he's played with me before, he knows I can play this game. So I'd imagine if he was scum he'd want me gone ASAP, which indeed he does. He has pushed suspicion of me without any real reasons, simply claiming meta reasons. There are no meta reasons, because I am in fact playing very differently this game than in the game we played together as scum. Since the meta reasons are B.S., and Panzer clearly wants me gone, I have come to the conclusion that he is likely to be scum.
Finally,
Jex
. Jex has not posted a whole lot, and his posts have had very little content. The most that he said was back on page 9, and it was basically a misinterpretation of the rules that was the main content of that post. So he's pretty under the radar, and that's really the only reason for my suspicion.
