So you believe that WWM would shaft Shanakin, assuming he is a scum, on the grounds of he dosen't want a new player on his team?

No, I believe wwm would shaft Shanakin to make it look like they were doing a good job of finding scum. It's called "bussing" as in throwing people under the bus.

I think bowmore is someone who isn't really paying a whole lot of attention, but I don't see that as a scumtell for him. I feel like the Shanakin case is pretty shaky. Yes he (she?) was one of the people who didn't vote for DC at the end of the day, and that is suspicious, but I'll take Shanakin and Gridlocked at their word that Shanakin forgot deadline. The rest looks like typical newbie awkwardness and is generally null. With a gun to my head I'd vote Shanakin, but I think there are much better votes out there currently.

So...right now you think they are both town? Or scum?

Those are some pretty vague opinions.

I'm proud of you, Bender. Sure, you lost. You lost bad. But the important thing is I beat up someone who hurt my feelings in high school.

Gridlocked posted:

You know what guys: ##vote WWM

Poor quality Logic here:

a) Early on WWM suggests grandi and FV as "Gut Reads". Grandi has already shown himself as a cop, so obviously that gut read was wrong; and to me FV is one of the most upstanding citizens. Why would you gut read 2 people like that?

To me this is not a particularly convincing point. Wrong does not equal scum. If WWM was town, how would he know that Grandi was a cop?


I think you're misinterpreting WWM here. I dont see that he doesn't want people to vote DC, but he's looking at the motivation of people's voting at the end of the day.


Gridlocked posted:

c) WWM wants me to explain if I think DC is a townie (as I said I thought she was during Day 1). Why would s/he care about my opinion on that? Strangely specific in the circumstances.

No, this is how you play mafia. You get people to commit to concrete opinions and then watch how their opinions change throughout the game. Are they consistent? Are their thought processes clear? This is much harder for scum to do because they know more than town and have to lie.

Gridlocked posted:

d) S/he claims DGK is a bigger threat then someone a number of people have fingered as a newbie scum. Jumping on the DGK bandwagon. Why would they do the bandwagon after blasting two people for the same on day 1? And why would you bandwagon so easily when you are someone who has already made clear your hatred of it? Answer: S/he already knew, before Grandis cop post, that DGK was a townie and wanted to get the free townie kill because they thought everyone would bandwagon DGK hard (which we did) and maybe drop the hammer. Also: What kind of rear end in a top hat hangs a fellow scum out to dry? Why wouldn't you try to help them post better?

I can see this from WWM's perspective. If I thought an experienced player and a new player were both scum, I'd want to lynch the more experienced player first. The longer you leave inexperienced scum alive, the more likely they are to make it obvious who their scum buddies are.

Gridlocked posted:

e)WWM now thinks DC is a scum, citing the "no lynch" was suspicious. Blames Shanakin and DGK. Hold up there son, you just annoyed at two people for voting DC to death, wanted me to reinforce that I thought DC was a townie and are NOW upset that the no lynch happened? YOU could have voted for her, but you didn't. And yet here you are saying it's Shanakin and DGK's fault that she didn't get lynched. It sure does look like someone is protecting DC, but it ain't Shanakin or DGK.

f) WWM reiterates his/her belief that Shanakin, DC and DGK are scum; and suggests that Shanakin and DGK are attempting to pull votes off of DC. This is odd considering that, as previously mentioned, s/he did made an effort to tell people off for voting for DC earlier. Again: Why would you be mad at people voting for DC and then act like DC not getting lynched was bad and you wanted her lynched all along?

It seems like an unnecessary bus to me. Shanakin had one other vote and WWM goes in hard with his case.

I know people bus, but I don't understand what WWM's motivation would be to bus here. Shanakin wasn't under any threat at the time and there doesn't seem to be any connection between them before that which would indicate they were scum buds.

Also considering you were asking after both Shanakin and myself: do you think we are both scum, both townies or a mix?

fiery_valkyrie
Mar 26, 2003

I'm proud of you, Bender. Sure, you lost. You lost bad. But the important thing is I beat up someone who hurt my feelings in high school.
I think DC is the most likely scum.

D1 she posted a lot of negative posts about Kleedrac, but without actually committing to calling him scum or voting him. 1 2 3

When I asked her to clarify her position on Kleedrac, she hedged and wouldn't commit to an alignment call. 1 2

These are scummy behaviours because they allow her to put pressure on a player without being seen as a prime instigator in their lynch, while at the same time giving her the ability to be wrong about that player and later say "well I wasn't sure".

Today her opinions on WWM and Shanakin dont make a lot of sense, unless you are assuming that WWM came out early bussing his companion who was in no current danger. Yes, it is possible for that scenario to occur, but is it the most likely scenario? DC is really having to follow a convoluted thought process to make her opinions line up with the content in the game. This is really anti-Occam's razor. DC is stating that the most unlikely version of events are probably true.

I think you're town too. I dont agree with your case on WWM but I think it shows that you're thinking and engaged with the game and being honest with your thought processes.

Shanakin is probably scum. All of his posts scream newbie and a lot of them are pretty scummy.

Honestly the main reason I think chain lynches are bad is that they're distracting and completely irrelevant. Discuss the impact of someone's scum flip after they flip scum when you actually know a flip, not before.

Welp I got nothing. I was pretty convinced by grid when he presented his explanation and regrettably trusted it on face value. However now that you've poked a bunch of holes in it, and I've gone back I see we've confused the timeline somewhat by looking at player post history pages.

I kinda wish we weren't made unconfirmed masons, as it makes it harder for everyone else to trust us, but also leads us to feeding awkward newbie ideas off each other. I can understand why he did it, and don't really object, but it has been a bit awkward.

Follow up questions:

Why is DC voting for Shanakin then? He is doing a good job of hiding it from me if he is getting thrown under the bus by her; dosen't seem to care.

Also if Shanakin (or myself) gets lynched and comes up mafia, will you believe the other is innocent? Being somewhat selfish here but if my mate gets blaped I have a bad feeling people will, incorrectly, assume I am scum.

The problem with your questions is that you are assuming I think both DC and Shanakin are scum together.

While I do think they are both scum, my opinion of each is irrespective of the alignment of the other. I'm not trying to tie my thoughts about them together, because I am still keeping in mind that I could be wrong about one or both.

As for your second question, I don't know. It would depend on who flipped. It would depend on future posts from both of you. It would depend on who voted and the reasons they gave for voting.
