Met posted:The logic here doesn't make sense. "It's a scumslip that he 'forgot' what the bad guy flavor is despite the fact it's in the OP... something only a scum would do." As far as I can tell, aliens haven't been mentioned in any of the flavor. I'd think, as far as slips go, it would make sense for a hypothetical alien 3p. I suspect you're scum. ##vote Met

Met posted:Evil Sagen made this post: You didn't ask if there were aliens, you asked who the bad guys are. Considering it's plastered all over the place, I don't see what the confusion could be unless there was something in your role message that might differ from what we've seen.

SirSamVimes posted:I'm guessing EXALT are scum and also possibly alien-aligned 3p. Since Met brought it up, I have to admit this post is still bothering me. I know others parsed it as "aliens are a potential other 3p," which is a reasonable educated guess since it's an X-Com themed game, but it still reads to me like he was saying that EXALT are 3p that happen to be alien-aligned.

Wait, I read Met's post and then his again and it makes sense as an answer to Met's strange inquiry, leaving Met as still more suspicious in the case of who the gently caress slipped up when talking about aliens in an X-Com game. My bad.

SirSamVimes posted:Why would I say one faction is both scum and 3p? I meant that EXALT as scum and either alien or alien mind-controlled 3p, based on my knowledge of the game itself. You're right, it doesn't make sense, which is lucky because your grammar in that post is atrocious.

The word "slip" has been used multiple times. I'm pretty sure that's the common theory, not bragging or taunting.

It's not information because it's just a claim. Do you feel I should be moved? You didn't answer my question. If Met really is a tracker, when was the right time for him to tell the whole world?

BottleKnight posted:Yes. Are you reading mine? I was not objecting to your point. It's totally valid to think that town should not reveal info to scum. I am simply wondering why you chose to point that out now instead of earlier when we were discussing it (or before the claim.) Because my only objective was to express my skepticism about your questioning the timing. Everyone already knows why claiming isn't a good idea, I had nothing new to offer to that conversation.

Can someone clarify something for me? It's been a while since I played mafia. Does the colloquialism "scum" refer to all non-town/"bad guys" including 3p or just the "main" bad guys (i.e. the titular mafia)?

I suspect SirSamVimes is scum. I'm convinced, after too much deliberation and seeking some clarification on language today, that my read on his post re: aliens was in fact poor parsing on my part. However, taking another look today, his initial reason for voting Mets reads to me like scum trying to imitate the reasoning on voting Mets without really understanding it and his follow-up posts [1, 2, 3] read to me like retcons to get on board with the town reasoning after more people became vocal about what made Met suspicious. In other words, his contribution to the Met lynch reeks of thinly-veiled "me too" posting. I suspect Green Intern is scum. He hedges a lot on the subject of Met, offers no conviction or little in the way of reads on other players, and mostly just limply hangs off Winson's comments in regards to limited information. I suspect Winson_Paine is scum. Over time he establishes that he doesn't believe Mets is scum, but also that Mets is such a poor player as to be GRR SO ANGRY-MAKING, and ultimately votes for him anyway. Maybe he's just a really passionate advocate for good town play?

I don't really believe you, SirSamVimes, but if you're telling the truth you better hammer yourself, because you've guaranteed scum won't ever take that hit. ##vote SirSamVimes You kind of baffle me.

TMMadman posted:This just really doesn't sit right with me. I don't get why you would think that another LMG would be another dayvig. Do you think that every other Assault rifle is a tracker like Met? Do you think that there is another sniper rifle out there with the same power as whatever the Battle Scanner turns out be? That seems unlikely since I doubt Horsebanger's role was the same as mine.
