Match Overviews
Absurd Revolver vs vector_to
A big contention right off the bat! We have a hedgemaster vs a lurker! It's amazing that vector_to even showed up the match!
Let's see the highlight shot of the match, made by Absurd Revolver:

Woah! A powerful hypocritical hedge, a three pointer! No substance, just weak spite against our incredibly amazing and beautiful referee, jon joe!
Meanwhile, vector_to was knocked out despite lurking due to overuse of this tactic. It look like he's lurking in every game, folks! Easy victory to AR!

PMom vs Azuth0667
Two lurkers, folks. The main difference here is Azuth is pulling the strong move of "no opinions so far"! And "confusion post!" Woah!
PMom is absolutely slaughtered by these moves, having only a weak showing of low-reasoning votes!
Azuth0667 takes it!

JakeP vs GulagDolls
How did GulagDolls even get to the playoffs? Dude's so town it hurts. This is due to his signature playstyle of fun jokes combined with scumhunting through calling people out on their bullshit.
JakeP is pretty town to, what with strong opinions and contributions, but he's a lot less likable. His only saving grace is his total misrepresentation and hatred of lumpenlists.
Wait, a surprise move?!

He's not going to vote jon joe anymore despite not giving a reason! Could he really be just blowing smoke? The audience loves smoke!
JakeP wins by not being GulagDolls!

imgay vs MG3
imgay is content-less, but pretty consistent with his town meta, while MG3 is just content-less.
imgay is gay!
Wow, MG3 not even lurking, but I've seen lurkers with more content than him!
It's a toughie, folks, but the audience likes the cut of MG3's low content and high post count! It's a new lurking strategy! A win for MG3!

Shadow0 vs Rarity
Is Shadow0 just a copy-cat of MG3? It's the exact same strategy, except he has a vote!
That vote makes it all, folks! It's one thing to have many posts and no content, it's another to bandwagon, too, then go back to no content!
Rarity has just been lying down on the floor the entire game. Is she okay? Medics? MEDICS?!
Shadow0 wins through strong play AND an opponent who can't play anymore.

Mayor Glowku vs Anomalous Amalgam
The last match of the round, gentle audience. We have the popular lurker strategy from Mayor Glowku, plus a no-content vote, vs Anonymous Amalgam.
Woah a series of strong scum plays from Anonymous Amalgam!
Wait, instant replay!
It looks like AA has a lot of townie content in addition to his scummy posts! Will this hurt his chances?
No!
It's a good thing we keep posts saved, though, so our incredible judge can look at them with a more objective eye. AA may make it through this round on the back of some suspicious timings and hedges, but his town-like legitimacy might be his downfall in a future round!
AA wins, but loses many fans!

Round 2 incoming!

This is an amazing post, I'm sad that JJ is dead now.


AR had major beef with JJ early. I'm thinking he had reason to kill JJ

i mean I have been scum with rarity before it it really annoyed me that she wanted to kill off the best players and make it an easy game rather than a fun game for all involved.

I have never been scum with you before, and I am not sure I ever even played in a game where you were scum, but I feel like you would be similar

i would have killed forums poster vector, who has 5 posts, if they were town.

(and killing them is such an obvious pro-game move that it's making me think they're likely to be scum - keeping vector is super rude on the part of the scum team otherwise.)

Yeah I think you're still scummy. Like I said lumpen lists mimic scum hunting. They feign opinion and that makes you look worse than AR, lurker vector and an mia Rarity imo. The more you post, the more I am pinged because outside of your tunneling on AR, who has admittedly made some awkward posts and convictionless votes, you your self seem to have little conviction and turn your cases into fill in the blank questionnaires for players to respond to instead of actually building a case on your own merit.

Like I said, your vote on Rarity was opportunistic, your casing is shallow and lumpen lists are easy ways to pretend like you actually have opinions.

##vote Jon joe

You want my vote baby, you got it. ;)

Anomalous Amalgam posted:

You're scum or incredibly obtuse. I had an opinion on your vote when town was pushing lurker lynch but you neatly omit that.

I've got way more content than you in my joke posts than you do in all your rebuttals and lists. You're fake man, and the reason why is....

You're scum. Not even the scum mvp.

Mags was a lurker vote but he's started posting today which negates my reason for voting him. On the other hand your justification for voting him was weak and I think comes from bad intentions. It's not that difficult to understand.

Rarity posted:

The problem is "This is a band bad vote I'm sticking where I'm at" is not a persuasive enough statement to stop a bandwagon.The sheer act of putting a vote down forces people to pay attention and not just skim past your post. Yeah, I suppose I'm trusting someone else's reads there which is not generally good play but I'm feeling good about JJ so based on my vibes so far I feel lynching Mags gives us a better shot of hitting scum than lynching Azuth

I hope Vector is ok. I think they have gone MIA from the forums altogether.

Good luck mate.

As far as who is scum and not scum.

Glowku, Rarity, and MG3 are pinging me the most.

I really don't like MG3's "catching up" to make a vote while calling people out and not really actually building a case rather than making a couple quotes. Seems feigned IMO and I feel like the vote on Rarity just now is maybe a buss for cred given that she was at -2.

Glowku has almost no content at all. Their posts are bereft of anything but a few shady votes.

Do you not see the way that she's changed her impetus for voting me on D1? That's scummy.
