Open 674: Duck Duck Goose [Game Over]

[Aubrey]

I doubt scum will scour a wiki and a number of people's previous games in order to seem relevant. That is where my town lean stems from on Doom currently.

What if he's doing that because his last scum game went so poorly? I could be reading too much into it but it seems like he's trying very hard to be super town

You're not swaying me here.

[Aubrey]

I voted havingfitz because I haven't seen anybody do anything that makes me actually scumread them yet. I figured that if that's the case then the person who I know is hard for me to read is more likely to be scum.

Nuts, you're right. He is on V/LA. I must have been tired last night. I'll go through the thread yet another time and see if I can find someone to vote.

@MOD: Could you prod Allomancer, please?

KidAmn, when you post a gif but don't explain the faults in anyone's reasoning, it just comes across as passive-aggressive and unhelpful. Could you maybe explain your objections?

I don't like you. Then I like you. Then you say crap and that makes me go, "

What the hell.

" Vote for someone you are getting scummy vibes from. Not someone you are scared of.

[KidAmn]

lol, fine Kid. Let's get on with it. Do you think I'm scum and was budding Creature as Kop suggested? If the answer is yes, bring it. If the answer is no, then move on and get over the meta crap.

I don't have any massively strong feelings on you one way or the other - if pushed I'd lean town simply because scum could be coasting through this day very happily without doing much at all at this point, and you're doing quite the opposite. I just dislike the meta comments and wanted to make that clear in a sufficiently wavy manner, as I am reliably informed the kids say these days.

[MooginSoosy]

Is fitz still the person you find most suspicious? I looked back to see who you last voted for Aubrey and it's still on fitz.

[Kop]

Not being able to read someone simply because they are hard to read doest make them scum.

[doomfeathers]

I don't like you. Then I like you. Then you say crap and that makes me go, "

What the hell.

"

That's totally going on my wiki.

I voted hapahauli because I needed to put my vote somewhere, and he looked like the least townish option. I would vote Fredrick, but I'm still trying to determine whether sloppy disregard for the game are something scum would be more likely to do than town. Allomancer's got my vote whenever he shows up.

[doomfeathers]

...referencing one's own meta as Aubrey did is one of the most glaringly useless things there is - anyone capable of brief introspection can play to or against their own "meta" given enough ability.

I agree with this.

[Aubrey]

Cool. We understood your distaste for meta the first time. It will get old very quickly if you complain every single time someone uses meta though. Furthermore there is a correct way to use meta and a wrong way to use meta. That is a conversation for another time though, but long story short; one should use meta to guide oneself into watching someone, but not use it in a absolute manner what-so-ever.

Now Let me talk to you a little bit about my post, a post you called basically called a waste of time. 1. That post really wasn't a defense post against Kop's claim intended for you all to get some meaning out of exactly. It was directed at Kop, and Kop alone. 2. Kop and I just ended a game last week, in which I won as scum, while Kop was put into a Kingmaker decision at LYLO between myself and a good ol boy named Hawk. There was no clear answer in the finale, so Kop basically analyzed our plays pretty damn painfully. He probably knows my scum play better than anybody else right now (especially in this game), only for him to accuse me of something I didn't, nor do I really ever do, as scum? Naturally that is going to set off a warning alarm in my head, and Kop should know that based on my

waste

of a comment. <-- That was the intention behind that post. Kop is still pinging the shit outa me, but I can't articulate a strong case against him. That is due in part by meta probably, but I have yet to decide if he is a strong scum candidate. <-- remember me saying Meta should be used as a guide and not a absolute? For example, I don't remember him utilizing these short bursts of assaults at all. In fact, it comes across as if he is just shooting randomly to see if a fire will start somewhere. Again, it feels as if someone is scooping out a place to land their vote once a wagon is generated.

Now, please stop wasting my time complaining about meta in general (unless it has a valid point) and please start pushing ppl and locating scum as I'm attempting to do so.

Pre edit: Doom, shut it. Unless of course you want to actually follow up on Kop's accusation against me.

[Aubrey]

Is fitz still the person you find most suspicious? I looked back to see who you last voted for Aubrey and it's still on fitz.

Most suspect? No. I don't know if I really have a

most

suspect right now. There are people I kinda don't like, and then there are people I kinda like. Then there are people I'm waiting to decide if I like. I don't have a reason to town read him right now either.

For instance I don't know if I like you or not.

[doomfeathers]

Kop is still pinging the shit outa me, but I can't articulate a strong case against him.

I agree with that, but to a lesser extent. If someone else is also noticing it, that means it's not my imagination.

Pre edit: Doom, shut it. Unless of course you want to actually follow up on Kop's accusation against me.

Too late. I've already had my say.

[doomfeathers]

Hang on, I think I've got a case.

VOTE: Kop

His posting tone seems bored and rather uncaring, which clashes strongly with his activity and content. I think he's scum trying to look town.

[Aubrey]

Allomancer's got my vote whenever he shows up.

:-/

again.

I like your enthusiasm, but my god I hate your voting methods so far.

Too late. I've already had my say.

Meanie head.

[doomfeathers]

Allomancer's waiting until as late as possible to post. I've seen scum use that strategy.

[KidAmn]

I mean, they haven't posted

at all

so I'd hesitate to put any kind of motive behind a lack of action just yet.

[doomfeathers]

Fine. I'll read what Allomancer posts when he posts before I decide to vote him. I probably still will, though, especially if I don't have a decent wagon at the moment.

[Aubrey]

Hang on, I think I've got a case.

VOTE: Kop

I think you're getting it confused with dry posting to be honest. His posts usually lacks strong emotion in them. <--- where meta is also useful.

[doomfeathers]

[boop]

VOTE: Fredrick

because I think he's lazy scum.

[outoforder]

Creature is probably toen too. And someone..umm yes, it was Kop. But now i am confused since two of my top scumreads call him possibly mafia. I fidnt have much time today, i'll reassess that first thing tomorrow.

[hapahauli]

V/LA until Monday (2/20)

Something came up, won't be around the thread for atleast 48 hours.

[MooginSoosy]

Allomancer's waiting until as late as possible to post. I've seen scum use that strategy.

Isn't allomancer being prodded and will probably be replaced?

[doomfeathers]

Well, that was sudden. I thought you townread me.

Allomancer's waiting until as late as possible to post. I've seen scum use that strategy.

My bad. You're right.

@Mod: Sorry, missed the prod. You're doing great.

[outoforder]

rofl, i meant townreads

[Fredrick E Campbell]

Yeah, to some extent. This is only Fredrick's fourth game, and he doesn't appear to post much.

I'm actually kind of busy now. It's my dad's birthday, so planning a surprise for him. Anyways, I'll be back by tomorrow.

[doomfeathers]

I meant in general, not specifically this game.

[Kop]

lol, fine Kid. Let's get on with it. Do you think I'm scum and was budding Creature as Kop suggested? If the answer is yes, bring it. If the answer is no, then move on and get over the meta crap.

That comment about buddying was meant in jest, from our little back and forth, I'm reading you as town, because your posts seem a bit more thought out and there is more frustration behind your words. In the game we just finished, you seemed more composed as scum.
