Amni you're stating that there are existing interactions that lead to definitive alignment conclusions and based on the last page I have no idea what you're talking about. My initial reaction is that you are eager to make strong alignment calls to appear town so you are getting ahead of yourself. I've had a weird day so explain your earlier statement like I'm an idiot because it's been a weird day.

Gamer that's a scummy post. Why do you feel the need to detail your opinions on so many players when you only call one and a half of them scum? What function does it serve to say someone is dumb or 'could be suspicious?' List style posting is weird this early in the game and that looks forced.

I think Amnistar is town. He was trying to generate content in the beginning, which seems like a town move to me, and misinterpreting my early game posting as scummy is a pretty town thing to do.

That's a good question.

Right now, my leaning is Gamer, probably one between Max22 and CirclMastr due to extreme lurkiness, and I'd guess at least one other person who is currently under my radar.

You barely mention Gamer before and then you name a bunch of lurkers, that's so lame. Do you think that a lurker lynch is a good idea day one? Why?

Get out of here, I was mostly joking.

My sentiment was that HiipFire was posting more than I've ever seen him post before (because literally, every game I've seen him in, he has not participated at all). That could mean he's scum and feeling like he has to try. I was serious about that.

I was joking that he should be automatically cuddled for it.

Not feeling it. I'm not saying that we should give Gamer a pass just because he is new, but I am saying that I think that we're getting a false positive because he's new.

Quidnose has over a hundred games and flipped out after a modicum of pressure was applied. I don't really care about his meta because arguments based on posting styles are generally bad. He's currently dogging the vote leader hard so I'm not particularly inspired to give him a pass on effort.

My last game I was scum I got outed for posting to much and literally quoting the OP but having to much information, why would I post a lot of trash the next game? I'm just lovely at posting I guess. :shrug:

I think Amni sees how Gamer talks about how he got caught last time as scum and why he wouldn't do that behavior this game, the implication being that he is scum this game as well. It's clever but I doubt it's actually a scum slip.

Quids done lots of whitenoise posting to make him look like he was involved while not actually adding anything, up until he was accused. I agree with the suspicion, but I would think scum would share with the vote-post-only lurkers over posting a lot and getting hosed over.

I think that's a sweeping generalization. There are a lot of different ways to play scum.

Allen Wren posted:

Of course it's a weak excuse. Nobody's got anything but weak excuses or lovely reads.

Do you have no opinion regarding Quid's blowup?

Does the idea that 'Gamer should have been coached better than this' work counter to your vote? Why wouldn't he have been coached better? It's not a rhetorical question.

Allen, you say that Gamer should have been coached better by his scums. He was, apparently, not coached well. Doesn't that imply that he wasn't coached well because he's town and doesn't have any buddies to tell him how to play?

After looking over the posts that occurred the past few days, I was able to narrow down a few suspects for scum.

1. Gamerofthegame -- His first post was essentially a misinformed list of opinions on people which make him highly suspicious.

2. apostateCourier -- Has not posted since his outburst against me, most likely lurking now.

3. Meinberg -- Recently admitted being poor at mafia despite experience, most likely a ploy for sympathy.

The last time I played against scum Quidnose it was the Christmas game and he was cool as a cucumber (source). Let's flip the logic around. Do you think someone with over a hundred games of experience will just flip the gently caress out under the least bit of pressure when they're scum?

I started to read that but I'm not sure it even counts as a real game.

Yeah I think it's possible for experienced players to get overly defensive as scum. I've been playing mafia off and on since my reg-date and I still get flustered as scum sometimes. Seriously how does that reaction seem normal or sane to you?
