Oh, I also understood Ernie's argument from before and didn't think it was weird. He made a big post with reads responding to a variety of different flavors, and I came out of that wanting to arm him but instead saw merk's vote for him right afterwards and got confused.

True and Real posted:Well, what if I told you that is exactly how I felt about him in The Breach in which he was scum? Poque is avoiding the thread at large and just kinda sniping at the conversation and I do not like it. If you told me that, I would respond that it's some pretty interesting meta info that I didn't know! Then I'd thank you. It would also make me more intrigued by Merk's case on Ernie since it's predicated on the exact same ideas that you and PMom are bringing up. Question for you and PMom so that I can get a better contextual feel: Would you say that what they're doing is equivalent to an argument about flavor?

Flavor arguments are lovely and dumb obviously, but what merk's case on Ernie is saying is that Ernie is saying things that are entirely valid but the kind of thing you could easily say from any position in the game because the statement is sort of common mafia sense. That's more insidious. In Poque's case? No, it's not arguing flavor, it's just saying things that appeal to reason (don't arm someone who claims to know who to shoot because it washes hands of culpability) and not really engaging in the game otherwise. He's been around but not involved, and that is a problem.

I don't understand why the points I made during the arms race were bad. nothing I said was untrue and I didn't want a run for the gun to be determined by a momentum shift where scum could easily throw in their arming votes to keep themselves from being shot. Like they don't have hard calls that sort of theorycrafting is important to get out there.

My read on Poque as of when I told you I strongly disagreed was that he was suspicious whereas you were saying he was blatantly town. I'm not ready to say he is scum because he just hasn't said much in the way of content, but yeah, the fact that he's sitting back and saying things that are equally easy to say as scum and town is suspect, imo.

Oh my goodness you guys are killing me - every time I try and make a case I refresh and there's like 20 new posts! Unlike yesterday I'm kind of slammed at work at the moment so my posting might be a bit more sporadic. I went over the four people Mills named: Little Mac posted:I think I should get voted out simultaneously in every game I'm playing. That would actually be kinda hilarious. I'm null-leaning-town with Mac. Although there isn't much to go on, he sounds relaxed which implies town to me. He's someone I plan to re-read later pending future cases. Hal Incandenza posted:I see your point on MT but I disagree about PM. I don't think he was doing that based on Grandi giving him a pass and I think it's weird that is all you got from him I lean town here, Hal's posts read like someone who has been carefully reading the thread trying to find scum despite not having much time to do so. Poque posted:I don't consider this an absolute scenario. If you're wrong about Grandi, you've given scum a place to hide their votes without putting a target on their own backs and that needs to be out there as well. Poque I'm null. His posts sound like they're coming from a town point of view, but seem like they're more focused on "who is town" over "who is scum", which makes me more suspicious regarding him than I am with Hal. Dr. Hurt posted:Gun thoughts! Hurt has a whole ton of posts, almost none of which really advance the game. His one effortpost (quoted above) kind of implies that maybe Merk / Ernie / myself are shady, but never really comes out and says it. He endorses Poque for town, which I usually find suspicious when not done in tandem with looking for other scum. The one thing he takes a firm stance on is that I should get the gun - if I were scum I feel like this would be a good way to blend in since it's an easily justifiable opinion to have. Other than that it's all just a bunch of noise posts, which feels consistent to how I've seen Hurt scum in the past. Of the four I find him the most suspicious. Cases/opinions on other people (plus repsonse to weekly font) will hopefully be coming soon over lunch break.

I disagree with this. The implication that he would do the funniest thing is that he would shoot himself with the gun, but he never outright comes out and says it. It would be very easy for him to get the gun as scum and then say "no this is what I meant" and shoot somebody else and blame us for misinterpreting his meaning. Combined with the immediate vote for PMom who says he'll shoot Grandi and I don't like Mac.

I will treat your content like I would any other content produced in the game. I don't like at all that you're putting this in the light of me tunneling in on you and confirmation biasing. That isn't the case and never was. I agree with merk that it is a mark against you to be overly concerned with that anyway.

I don't think you're tunneling on me, you've got explicit opinions on a lot of people. That was strictly in response to you asking if it mattered or not if my content was genuine.

Murmur, I really like your points on Hurt. Normally he's pretty jokey but this feels different. He's making small points but the way he's phrasing his reads is very weak. It doesn't seem like he has any interest in pushing his opinion. ##vote Hurt

Mills posted:I'd like to see opinions on why the following players are town or scum: LM, Hal, Hurt, Poque. We should do this. At this moment, I think the shoot order should be: LM (I think he's scum), Hurt (I can see the scum angle), Hal (a mystery and i have baseline suspicion of him from something he said today but i cant remember what haha), Poque (possibly scum but he's a proven quality poster so don't do it)

# ? Feb 26, 2015 17:57 |

I kind of stumble over "Let's not give mills weapons." every time I reread that post by Hurt. It's an argument against arming him not based on alignment, but on his image as a dick?

I find it very curious, very curious indeed, that Mills doesn't want to shoot Somber. He's still mad at Somber in theory, right? Shouldn't Mills want to just knock him out? Hmmmmmmmmm

I don't think Poque is scum. I can see the Hurt case. This might be a good shot. I think anyone saying they have a read on LM is questionable; guy has no posts. Hal is the scummiest of the bunch, but a Hurt shot might actually be better. That is, a Hal lynch probably would generate more content than a Hal vig or a Hurt lynch... if that makes sense. More clearly, there's more talk on Hurt right now than on Hal.

You were not listed among them. Eh?? EHH????
