Poison Mushroom posted:I'm actually quite interested to see goodness "gain knowledge from the no-lynch". I'm even more excited to see a case built on it! Who knows, maybe he'll actually find something. You wanting to lynch those two isn't a redflag per se, but you wanting to lynch Lamp and then voting for goodness is.

tithin posted:I'm re-reading goodness at the minute and I'm getting kind of a scummy vibe - but at the same time I'm not sure I'm not just projecting (scum hunting will do that for you) - is goodness a newer player also? Is this how they typically post? The first couple days and last couple days I am typically pretty cynical about the game, just because of the way some people think they are clairvoyant gods.

goodness posted:The first couple days and last couple days I am typically pretty cynical about the game, just because of the way some people think they are clairvoyant gods. The problem here is that the first couple of days, and the last couple of days in this particular game are going to run together. There's not going to be a comfortable middle imo - so you're kind of shooting yourself in the foot.

This is probably not the right attitude to go about it, but out of topic... I loved this sentence. I am seriously planning on setting up scenarios irl so that I'm able to say "clairvoyant god" :P

Pinterest Mom posted:It's not that they're not making an effort, it's that they're trying to appear to be making an effort without making one. "I'm trying to see if I can gain any knowledge from the no lynch" conjures up images of him retreating into his basement hideout, burning the midnight oil and making crazy diagrams on the wall trying to figure it all out, but you know and I know and goodness knows that there's no knowledge to gain from the no lynch. It's an attempt to look like they're doing something without actually doing anything, and it's super scummy when paired with posts like "Content on the first couple days is completely irrelevant until late game when it can be analyzed. Trying to pick something out of nothing just leads to false arguments that everyone bandwagons on." that actively try to stifle conversation. I want to see what they come up with. Same with Maltose. There's no one except maybe tithin I wouldn't want to vote at all. I can see reasons for a lot of people though the ones I have on Kitiara aren't really founded on anything. Pinterest I feel ambivalent towards but not bad. Mushroom you still haven't answered my question in regards to Maltose from D1. Also how do you feel about them on this D2?

A harder question to ask is why was sos killed? He targeted goodness and maltose each. He also mentions mushroom in this post: soscannonballs posted:Yeah I am going to ##vote Mr. Maltose. I am feeling pretty good about 100 being town right now, although I admit my only meta experience is from 2 game over a year ago, but in those games their town game was a lot different than their scum game. Sos was also a proponent of lynching Maltose and against the no-lynch. Useless to say in retrospect, but I think anyone would've been hard pressed to put him down as scum on D1 and I think it was that earnestness of his as town that led him to being lynched. Normally it's risky for scum to go after a player they think personally threatens them, since it can be easily connected. Does that mean we get to pay less attention to these guys? I can't get much out of the night kill of last night, there's probably not much there, but I don't think we should forget that it happened.

Gonna do my best to be present for deadline, though it may get a bit tough. At this point I would vote goodness or Maltose, though it's more because I don't want to vote other people. I want to see what they have to say first. At worst, I'll announce I'm going to bed and lay down a vote.

Yeah let's get a dialogue going because I'm nodding off and we've still got a ways to go. I want to check out Lamp, I've never bothered and all I know about them off hand is that Mushroom considers them scum for meta reasons. You were a bit retaliating strongly against Mushroom earlier Kitiara but I feel that a case could be built against them. So I guess 2nd them I'm gonna try to look into.

tithin posted:due to the flip flop vote first on 100, and then later for no vote. Oh god is it seriously ambiguous that my first d1 vote for 100 because "of his name" wasn't a joke? That's really unfortunate. Just because I want to say my last piece on the matter: I wish people would stop saying I was disrupting Day 1 srs talk with my joke vote. It was literally like half a dozen posts from the last joke vote and there really wasn't any proper content from what I can read. Only "hey guys we should get serious now" Which I disagreed with because I always like to do at least one joke vote and wanted to get mine in before that. There was no intention of mine to push the town away from serious talking. That would be a blatant and poor scum tactic and I like to think in an alternative universe where scum-Lamp is playing this game he wouldn't be so dumb to try do that. Now. The lack of energy in this game points to an inactive scum. I feel like nobody is really stirring the pot as such. Poison Mushroom posted:Do you think he's scum, then? Because you're getting awful defensive but not doing much but talking about how town you obviously are. I just read but can't find another post like this against goodness which basically reads "if you are spending all your time being overly defensive and not prodding other players that is pretty scummy" And I think that's just sloppy. Newbies, and some vets, have a tendency to spend all their posts just defending themselves from being scum. It's an easy trap to fall into to. But what really helps t find s is.. questions and offensive posts! Not emotional pleads that "I'm townie guys wait till I flip!!" I'm hella guilty of it myself. And I definitely don't see it as a reason to label somebody scummy like Poison Mushroom etc might. OK so. Poison Mushroom posted:I was feeling fairly strongly on him being town Day 1, because he was here and engaging and my gut said town. But also I really do think scum is being lurky lurks. goodness posted:The first couple days and last couple days I am typically pretty cynical about the game, just because of the way some people think they are clairvoyant gods. And if you are town, your absence isn't helping much. With only a couple hours to deadline and two votes already on you - ##vote goodness I am hesitant to defend my day1 no lynch now. I mean, I still think we didn't have enough content to lynch anything more than random (and I curse those who argued against this!) but I was hoping for some more pages d2. Nevermind. Also Poison Mushroom props for actually trying and making good posts. You come across as strongly townish so please keep an open mind on me ya bish

At least it's not nearly so quiet as the Australia game where the mod's threatened to modkill / close the game because no one's loving talking. Thanks for the explanation on WIFOM 100YrsofAttitude posted:A harder question to ask is why was sos killed? It's difficult to say the logic, but it would be a good way of diverting attention to Maltose, which honestly makes me a bit averse to voting for him on that ground. That being said it's almost literally all we've got to go on. Might try to do a formal read - how much time do we have left?

From my reread just now I think sos was killed because he seemed like a strong aggressive good player. I don't think reading in anymore than that will do us any good.

re-reading that last quote block is confusing even to me To clarify, I had thought I'd done a read and post on goodness but hadn't - I just did the read. Unfortunately there's not a lot there to read, and I suspect it's mainly scum lurking. Combined with the subsequent cynicism explanation and promise to do a big effort post from him that didn't occur, I'm happy to vote goodness, as I'm pretty confident he's scum at this stage.

We'll hammer tonight, as long as no one moves their vote, I'll finish it off when need be. There's a good enough case against goodness at this point where I don't really have qualms voting him. Though I didn't have a hand in making the case, I just never felt like he was trying too hard for most of the game but that at least he was sticking with a specific style of posting. I'd still like to see a rebuttal though if any is coming.

If his rebuttal is sufficiently strong enough, I'll be happy to unvote, but promises to post content and then failing to follow through is a big scummy move a lot of the time, especially when it helps to avoid them getting lynched.

Pinterest Mom posted:There's no tracker in this game. Go ahead and hammer. There can absolutely be a tracker. I find mushroom to be pretty inconsistent, despite active. He doesn't bandwagon Maltose, but quickly got on the goodness vote when all we had nothing more than pinterest's 1-phrase case. I don't know how he can call Maltose engaging. Maltose had arguably 3-4 posts of his total 7 that were somehow about Mafia but he never cased or made effort in the slightest of ways. Mushroom could've just called his non-vote gut but he added the extra really false qualifier. I'm really uneasy about poisonous mushroom. His case on Lamp was never particular strong, and lamp has shown himself to be pretty forthright so far.

I just want one last fail-safe. If it turns out Pin's doing a gambit or whatever, where does this put us towards LYLO? We've got 8, we get town tonight and they kill one of us. Brings us to 6 where 2 v 4. We hit Pin for lying and they kill. We're down to 4 where it's 3 v. 1. If we mis-lynch then that's it. It's not a fool-proof gambit but it's a pretty good one for scum seeing how little posting we've gotten. That said I think it's worth the risk.
