Skruffs, last post: wrote:
Dp, you arent interested in a name claim, presumably because, just like you have been since your original band wagon vote, which you hastily found reasons for later, you just want me to be lynched. I'm presuming that it is better play to actually hunt scum rather than blindly try to get someone lynched.
Is Anyone else who is voting me not interested in a name claim? Or would they rather keep pushing for a mislynch?
The people who are/were on my wagon are/were the following, with their responses:
Dragon Phoenix
: Ignored it to call me stupid instead. See below.
Battle Mage:
ah sorry, *Unvote*
LoudmouthLee:
If necessary, I will claim.
Foolinc
: Skruffs: While his play as of late has given me some doubts of whether or not he is really scum, downgraded to slightly scummy. *unvote*
VitaminR:
Well that part of Skruffs' behaviour has little to do with why I'm voting him. That's why...
VitaminR and LoudMouthLee have ignored the request.
LoudmouthLee even offered to, himself, while ignoring mine. And now I am curious as to what 'other reasons' other than my behavior, VitaminR is voting for me for.
I even went back to look to see where VitR voted me. I figured he stated his reasons earlier, and I missed them:
VitaminR
I don't like your defensiveness or OMGUS one bit.
Unvote: Oman,
Vote: Skruffs
Care to expand on this, VitaminR? I'm really curious what 'defensiveness' is, if it's not part of someone's behavior. Is it part of the digestive system? Please remember, I'm rather stupid, so talk in small little words so that I can understand.
I'm not in the lead of being lynched, but I wanted to follow up on my request. BM and Foolinc do not seem as opportunistic, they unvoted without asking for a name claim. The other three are still blustering. I'm suspicious of them. Especially DP.

Skruffs, are you really advocating a name claim this early or am I misreading that?
I offered to name claim to help prevent a mis lynch. Try to twist that into advocating anyone else in the game to name claim.

PookyTheMagicalBear:
Skruffs, why are you voting Lee right now?
I want to help lynch scum. I am not scum. To allow myself to be lynched over someone else who might be scum would be untownly. Therefore, I put my vote on someone else to try and prevent a mislynch. I'm surprised you couldn't piece that together. You're supposed to be really good at this game.
If that's not enough, there's this. He makes bad points as reasons to vote someone, gets called out, and hides away saying "But that's just how I am!" He has taken minute opinions (look at his post against Thesp) and blows them into extreme proportions, but doesn't want any counter inquisitation when people are curious about it. So if I were to push for someone's lynch, day one, with no information, it would be someone who has been playing a game similar to the way LML has, so far, today. Which works out, because apparently, four other people also agree with that mentality, which is why he has four votes on him.
Side note: You seem to be asking me a LOT of questions about minute aspects of my play. You are not asking anyone else in the game questions about their play. Are you interested in Vitamin's reasons for voting me, since they are not based on my behavior?

Dragon Phoenix wrote:To Skruffs: yes, there might be a second mafia family. That is not unheard of in a 20 player game. I would even bet either two families or one family and a SK.
He's made a guess regarding the setup based on the number of players in the game. The word "might" shows he's guessing and unless you know something I don't there's no evidence yet, that that guess is actually right.
This is very confusing. DP says that there are two families. I point ou that nobody except scum have any idea how big or how many the scum groups are. There have been no chances for night kills so we do not know how many scum groups are. You know who might be suspicious of a second mafia family, on day one? Someone who is in a unusually small mafia family. And I point you to Mafia 61, which had one scum group of 5 people in a 23 player game.
He used "Might" in his second post (which apparently is the third or fourth word I've used wrongly in this game. Stupid skruffs, durr hurr hurr). The point is,
why would you even suggest something like that if there is no reason to think it?
Oman said he thought we were mutually exclusive scum. Not we could be, or anything like that, but that there was two scum parties, and we were each part of one.
DP said "He could even be of a second family." Not "a second scum group", which is what he tried to corerct himself as meaning later, but family. Specifically, TWO mafia families.

:
Welcome to the game! Having you around will be exciting. Personally I do not care if you note who said what, but if you don't, be prepared to both be held accountable for something the other person said. My only issue is that I don't understand why the mod would assign two players to one role so shortly after saying that finding enough replacements may be an issue.
-------------
Dragon Phoenix
Are you trying to play the dim card Skruffs?
Durr hurrhurrr.
1. jeep clearly went out for family reasons - what are you trying to reach by casting doubt on his motives? jeep backing out because he is under pressure??
I'm not trying to "reach" anything. His replacement, in and of itself, is not based on him breaking the rules, and not from teh family thing, which spurred a question: "Why?". I am sorry that some people do more than bandwagon vote to figure out who is scum or not. If jeep has a scum=tell where he leaves or replaces otu of a game if he screws up somehow, than yeah, I will definitely move my vote to him. Some of the more experienced players in the game may very well be able to point that out. I have no idea. REMEMBER: NEVER PLAYED WITH HIM. It probably was not very tactful to probe into the events surrounding his departure, but, I went there.
2. Reading the rules is a clear prerequisite for this game. The deadline has been announced since day one.
What is the point of saying this directly to me,
3. Congratulations on the astute observation that if I mention a second family, that this implies that there is a first. Excellent. If you think my next comment you refer to (about there also being a possibility of one family and a SK) is backpedalling, then you don't understand the meaning of that word.
Oh wow. The problem is not that you implied there was a first family. The problem is that you seemed to think there would be a reason for there to BE A SECOND FAMILY. I pointed out that you seem to think there may be two families, and you immediately change it to "Second family or SK" - but you didn't imply SK. You implied second family. And if someone is in a small mafia group, they might be more suspicious of a second mafia family than a normal townie would be. THAT is my point,a nd you haven't actually refuted that. You are instead trying to belittle my intelligence. Guess what. Everyone belittles my intelligence. If you think I'm stupid, fine. My point must be stupid too. Which means that you can respond to it, easily, because you are so much smarter than me.
I would be happy with a Skruffs, battlemage(jeep) or Cubs lynch.
I have pointed out so many errors in your decision that I should be lynched, and you mostly just ignore them and stubbornly keep saying I should be lynched. Was it really just a 'townie bandwagon vote' or are you just trying hard to get someone not in your mafia group lynched? Nothing you have done since has indicated to me that you are interested in more than death.

IH:
It's useless to speculate about this, but considering how long Jeep has been playing, and making his "list of scumtells" and such, it could be for any number of reasons. Using this against BM isn't valid I think.
FoS:Skruffs I think....
Again, do not take me ASKING if jeep's request to be replaced as SAYING that he is scummy. I was asking because I have no idea. If I thought it was, I would not have asked.
Also, how does a name claim help us at all? Just curious.
You are up to date on the theme of the game, right? I can't tell if this is fishing or not.
-------------
Cubs:
Most of your posts have been (rightly) asking why I got such a wagon on me and saying I'm town, etc. I appreciate it, to a point. You did something similar to this in Anime mafia as an SK. Are you scum?
-------------
Tamuz"
I won't ignore you, don't worry.
I liked your first post, not because I agered with it, but because you went to the trouble to put your opinion out there. I'm going to pick on teh things about me first, everyone else second, because I am Skruffscentric.
- Over-defensive & bad logic, slight vent at pooky (?)
I resent having my intelligence insulted. He was a band-wagon-insulter, which is pointless and baitive.
- Blames, or explains a 'scummy' action of his on the mod. uhh DP isn't modding this game, you can't blame the mod.
???
Okay, so you thought putting MGM after no lynch was scummy? Did you think about that much before you made that decision?
What does DP not modding have to do with blaming the mod?
And did I blame the mod? No. I have taken responsibility for what I've done, which was, stir the pot. I explained that I used the mod's example for my own first list - but I would hardly call that 'blaming' him.
- Aside about LML and CH is appreciated
Sure.
- Tally makes him happy? She hasn't said anything of importance or value
She was the first person to use common sense in defending me, which made me feel better. Also: "vote: playswithsquirrels, cubsfan, Oman, Zindy, no lynch ::Wink::, MoS" See that wink? That made me happy.
- Compares his actions to LMLs and wonders why LML is geting meta-excused and he isn't (180). But fails to mentions that unlike LML he used horrid logic and misrepresented the word misrepresent.
I don't like this, because it ignores the horrid logic that LML was using. Say I have two apples. If I look at one, and then the other, for imperfections, I will find that the one I did not look at is probably more perfect than the one I did. Similarly, if a friend gives me an apple and says "These apples tend to be a little sour", I will be more surprised and upset about the apple that was not given to me by a friend, because, hey, I had no idea this apple was sour. Does that mean that the second sour apple is 'better' than the first, in either of those examples? No. Does it mean it is worse? No. But the means for determining which apple is better or worse, is flawed. That's what I was complaining about.
-224 = deflection
Yay Tamuz. BetteR?
That's my part. Let's look at the other parts.
Mos - avoiding possible tells - that's what I thought, too.
Foolinc - HE talked about other players as well - is that the only note of worth?
PWS - I can see you thinking that about him - but what does it mean?
Adele - I don't see her as counselling me in 181. It sounds a lot more like she was giving LML an out. (which is why I put her on the condorcet list later on)
Talitha - Blowing steam happens a lot. For example, you have spoken about two players in this post 'blowing steam' or saying a lot without saying anything, but you don't actually take your review of any players further than that, a review. So...
xyzzt-
- I think this is a false dilemma where he states in 159 that the scum are the only ones who start with any information. There are way too many goofy roles that we as a community have invented that result in townies or third parties starting with informations either because the mod outright states it or because one mechanic implies another.
I think scum start with more information (in most games) than any other role. Someone being a miller might imply there is a cop, but, mafia know which of them are scum and which aren't, which is the eral point of the game. Speaking of mafia knowledge... what do you think about the multi family theories that have been thrown about?
cubs - Agreed, but, curious about the 'at this moment' emphasis. Do you think the wagon that was on me at that moment was sound?
Jeep - Which assault by DP? And what does "Thermopylae' mean?
yay thesp - *patpat* Flattery can get you everywhere. Sometimes the best way to really figure out how someone works is to compliment them and make them feel confident. Thesp is a Macintosh apple.
