hello turns out my claim was a joke but it got us all talking proof it was a joke: qpq has correctly guessed that i copied my claim from when i was a 3p in an older game, and also why would i believe there is no town if i'm told that i have to get rid of the cop, doctor and scum in my wincon? on-to bigger and better things: ##vote capitalistpig players who've played with me fewer times might be tricked by the sincerity that i display when i fake-claim at the beginning of my games, but by now he's seen me do it 30+ times, there's no chance he took it seriously

here's a link to the last time i did this with cpig in the game, less than two weeks ago he was scum there, but his reaction is consistent throughout our histories of playing together where he simply calls bullshit on my shenanigans (i'm too lazy to find an example when he was town)

maybe consider the similarities: in both cases cpig exploited my claim to vote me off the bat opop is another player who always calls my bullshit, and he has done no such thing

100YrsofAttitude posted:This is unrelated to the discussion thread and is general meta/experience stuff for me. First you've given accurate advice previously, which I've ignored, and I want to take into consideration this time. 2nd I feel your trustworthy enough, I thought your joke claim was clearly a joke and that we had people tripping all over it is somewhat surprising. 3rd, I still find Cpig's post pretty disingenuous. If you don't want me to listen to you on this case why're you still voting Cpig? Also what're your thoughts on winvirus. Okay, but I'd still like you to vote CPig if you find him scummy, not based on a case I made. This feels weird because this is exactly what I'd like to be able to do but I feel like it's both unearned and it's making me feel weaker about my read. As for winnie, he just hasn't really said anything yet for me to have a read. It feels like a typical winnie post where he just peaces out after the lightest of reading.

Unlike KCW faking an opinion, QPQ came back with the results of his search and opinions based off them (i.e. he doesn't like my case, but independently finds cpig scummy). That's both content and effort. If you don't think people should read into that for alignment, then what should they look for?

merk posted:I'm asking Glock here and am concerned that you felt the need to jump in to whiteknight. I think that's scummy actually: ##vote Ernie I'm not white-knighting, I'm attacking your case. Your case is based on faulty premises. Just because the wrong person pointed it out doesn't mean you can avoid the question. If you can't think someone is townie based on effort and content, then what can you think they're townie for? Additionally, you've played hundreds of games, have you never seen a town player think someone else is townie for putting in Too Much Effort?

merk posted:He thought QPQ was town because 'that post was awesome.' I was mining out what that meant... because that means nothing. he told what it means when you asked: Glockenapfel posted:I like the fact that he was willing to do homework that helps out newer and lazier players like me. The results are fairly inconclusive, but the willingness to do it is towny I think. Additionally, your case is: merk posted:I don't really agree that you can glean anything about QPQ's alignment from the effort he put in because the effort goes nowhere. I think you made this up. But now you say it's because they're saying meaningless things. Which is it? Do you think Glock is saying meaningless words, or reading into things that aren't there in a scummy way? And for the third time: The post I just quoted says that it's reading into effort for alignment and I just asked you a question about why that's wrong when it's accompanied with content and an analysis of motivation.

Glockenapfel posted:I also noticed in looking back briefly that CPig was the third vote on Ernie. That makes him look worse to me. For the record, this is the core of my argument against CPig. If his motivation was 'to help ernie's gambit' then he wouldn't have been the third vote (2 votes is already enough information). All his vote did was add momentum, and CPig is a player who even though he doesn't admit it, plays with momentum a lot some times leaving his vote on players for days on end.

Somberbrero posted:If you can't see the benefit in lunching a player who isn't town that kills other players then I don't know what to tell you. I don't know if Numerrik is a serial-killer but it's definitely a possibility. This is a pointless argument. As far as numerrik's role is claimed he can only kill someone with a killing role by visiting someone else. This is easily provable depending on how people flip, even. If he's a serial killer then scum want him gone as much as we do and they'll figure a way out to get it done. Can we table this argument now? Somberbrero posted:Narco is scum because she's already retreating to attacking her own play. Which is good, because if she wasn't pointing out how dumb it is that she's making a meta vote based on a game and a half I would probably be calling her rude names. She's also made lurker callouts and content callouts despite offering very little content herself, there's a lot of posting without saying anything. 'Narco has offered content, but she hasn't offered content.' What? Her contributions seem fine to me. She's more concerned with protecting players than attacking them, which in my opinion is something a town player does far more often than scum.

Jedit posted:There's a difference between role and alignment. For example, you could claim to be 3P Survivor when you're actually an SK. (Heck, you could even claim the Survivor win condition as an SK without technically lying; you're telling the truth that you'll win if you're alive at game end, just omitting that you count as a threat to Town and so the game won't end when all the scum die.) This entire post is an argumentum ad ignorantiam. I've seen and been Town+ before. Has your case fallen apart because of that? You think Ninth is scum for defending Numerrik. And you think PMom and Quandary aren't on the same team when PMom has claimed to be on a completely different alignment than everybody else? I feel like that's a read that you have because you haven't fully read the thread proper and just feel compelled to comment anyway.

Somberbrero posted:Defending players is not a pro-town action because it doesn't find scum, it just stymies discussion. Content lurking is a thing. It's a pro-town action if Narc actively stops us from making wrong arguments. She stopped the merk discussion effectively, for what I'm sure are going to turn out to be good reasons. She was a background-blending scum player, and I'm sure she's that kind of person as a town player as well (i.e. offer opinions that won't get her killed by the scum). Also something that stymies discussion is sticking your fingers in your ears and repeating the same arguments Ninth shot down when he's not around pushing the same case hopelessly and relentlessly.

Can someone read Jedit's post that I quoted above and tell me if you get a vibe of 'i have to list players, now, so i'll list two town and one scum to confuse people if i flip'? That feels like that kind of post.

Somberbrero posted:I have trouble reading MiR because it just reads like another one of the lovely votes on me. Right but you don't find the fact that he isn't actually reading the thread problematic? Like he missed the entire context for his votes. It looks like he went in looking for something to backup his conclusion and came out with something he can pretend was voteworthy. As for Quandary, I know it's tenuous, but the last time I made this argument it was on Asiina in a game where everyone had to submit some stat-selection stuff in an rpg-like thing. She came into the thread and said 'Ah, I don't know what all the numbers mean but I submitted something anyway'. I immediately asked her if that's because the scum-team told her what to put in and turned out to be right. There are some actions I think are difficult to happen if you're not talking to someone outside the game. No where near Quandary's posts do you see anyone summarizing PMom's actions/soft-claims of being a 3P, but Quandary still assumes it.

# ¿ Mar 24, 2015 16:48 |

I mean Quandary explains it away by saying he used the wrong words, but it's impossible to say that that's true because he said PMom has a mutually exclusive win-con with town which never happened!

Quandary contradicts his own posting (because he's forgotten about posting in order to follow the thread's lead into a wrong direction). Somber's posting becomes more decided because he thinks he has something and wants the thread to listen.
