So, serious post: I think players withholding their action are actually more likely to be scummy, but not enough to pursue completely. What I do think is worth pursuing is that I highly doubt any scum have used their action on a scum mate. So if someone could possibly collate who used an action on who I would live you. Otherwise I will do so later. As for my scum reads, I'm gonna ##unvote I will reread today to see what jumps out at me.

spacing in vienna posted:BTW I had a theory in Hidden Role Mafia 1 that scum was less likely than town to use the action on themselves, just in case it was a vig. I was wrong, in that at least one scum person did test their day action on themselves. (DB I think?) Thanks for this! Doesn't mean much now, but I suspect after we find scum, this list of who targetted who day 1 will provide a lot of insight.

Okay, rereading the thread and I'm gonna ##vote YPM Their posts are superficial and it's hard to parse what is actual content vs. what is a joke. To the point that they voted for steak (as a joke?) but then it's a real vote? And they voted for gamer because they were manufacturing content, but it was a joke? but maybe it wasn't?

Sorry was I being unclear? I am not confused by what you are saying, I am pointing out that you are ping pinging between joking and not joking to avoid making actual firm stances you can be held accountable to in the future.

Your Personal Muse posted:What stances would you like me to clarify so that I may properly be held accountable? You have now, since pressure has been applied, taken a firmer stance that is accountable, but that does not change the fact that you behaved the way you did.

Toalpaz posted:its obvious please spell it out for the class then. Saying "it's obvious" is a cop-out that leaves significant wiggle room in the future for defending your stance when I flip town.

Toalpaz posted:I think that it is also obvious that my main case is against bif and dragon. I don't think I need to explain myself further. I think it's weird how defensive you appear to be, also. I mean, you haven't mentioned me once the entire game, and hten throw me in a list of scum, but now can't actually explain why you think I'm scum?

Your Personal Muse posted:##unvote I no longer think Steak is scum. I disagree with his analysis that scum wouldn’t overreact to joke votes, since I think scum tend exaggerate the danger they are in, and I generally hate meta self defenses but I liked the cool down and the response was genuine. People talking about your posting is pressure. Pressure is not always votes.

Your Personal Muse posted:Talking is only pressure if there is real worry from the target, otherwise it’s empty talk. There was literally zero threat from your case. Stop avoiding my question. You said I was slipping in and out of joke phase so that I could avoid scrutiny on my stances. What stances were those? Amnistar posted:Okay, rereading the thread and I'm gonna ##vote YPM Being disengenious about what I am saying is a also scummy. I have already said what the things you were doing were, what stances you seemed to be joking and then not joking about.

Your Personal Muse posted:Ok but I didn’t vote for Gamer with the manufactured content thing. Again, do you really believe that anyone would say that was a serious case? That I was seriously casing him for making a lunch pun? I think you were 'joking' until such time as someone called you out on it, and then were going to stick with it, like you did with steak.

Your Personal Muse posted:To clarify, you said I didn’t make a distinction between joke votes and serious votes and used my gamer vote and steak vote as examples. Let’s ignore that I didn’t actually vote gamer for what you said I voted for him for. When you made the case on me, I had explicitly said that my Steak vote was real due to his follow up, so I’m not sure who I could have theoretically wiggled out of that one. And I really don’t see how I could have used the gamer case to my advantage. I was looking at the "We got him, he's scum" and "How do I vote for 2 people" comments as posts that can be jokes, or not, based on what people respond to them.

Your Personal Muse posted:I assume we got him, he’s scum, is referring to when I listed the scum team, because otherwise I don’t know what you are talking about unless I missed a post. Those two posts are not what you mentioned in your initial case. Instead, you mentioned only my Steak and Gamer votes (of which one wasn’t actually a vote). In addition, my first serious post, which was clearly delineated, was AFTER those two posts so I you can’t say I was drifting in and out of joke phase for those two posts. Your Personal Muse posted:I think Gamer is ~~manufacturing content~~ and doesn’t believe this case smh bag him and tag him I called this out initially and you even responded that you didn't vote for Gamer with the post...so like...I'm confused why you're pulling a gotcha here.

Your Personal Muse posted:How are words alone pressure when there is zero threat behind those words? It annoys me that Amni is pretending like I couldn’t possibly just go after Steak because I thought something was there, no, it has to be because of the immense ~~pressure~~ I felt from his case which boils down to making some jokes Because it's calling attention to activity.

Your Personal Muse posted:I guess in my mind, there has to be some effect on the recipient for it to be pressure. If I had announced at the beginning of day 0 that I was a n0 cop and I had a scum result on Amni, there’s no pressure even though I said words that could conceivably result in Amni’s lunch. The game literally doesn’t allow for that claim, everyone knows it’s false. There’s no pressure Aside from the fact that uou literally did use it as an out right when I was posting the case "Oh yeah, no it *was* a joke vote but it's totally a real vote now!"

spacing in vienna posted:Wait are you talking about when ypm said that about steak? The "ok I was just joking before but now that he's said X, I'm actually thinking it's true"? Your Personal Muse posted:The initial vote was a joke, current vote is real This was written when I was writting my initial case post.

spacing in vienna posted:Amni, did you miss this? Because this is pretty clearly ypm going "... Hang on, I was joke voting steak, but now I want that to be a real vote, because I think that's a scum post from him." That post was the same, to me, as the post about Gamer earlier.

Sandwolf posted:I could see it was town just latching onto whatever D1, that’s how I see it now, but the more weight he tries to put behind it the worse I feel about it. Honestly, The initial case is weak, but YPM's responses have me happier about things.

Mostly the "Poke at the weak case until I make amni look bad, but ignore sandwolf's case becaue I can't make them look bad."

spacing in vienna posted:Okay, now I'm confused. Which post about gamer? I remember ypm full on joke calling gamer scum, but not ever backing that up into "wait no I actually meant it." I don't see where the confusion is. My entire initial case is that the post about steak and gamer both have just enough of a joke vibe to them that they can be excused and discarded or referenced as an actual case.

Sandwolf posted:Can you tell me why? It's the way that they just poked and poked until the felt they could justify a vote, but when another person also expressed an opinion of them as scum, they shrug it off and say "Yea sure". It's a weak D1 case, that they've just poked at until it beacame "a thing"

spacing in vienna posted:... But ypm didn't pretend his joke vote on steak was real; he threw down a joke vote and then explicitly changed it into a real one later, after steak did something he saw as scummy. Disagree there. When I read that post, there was no "This is a real vote" post and I could not tell if it was a real swap to a serious vote or more joking around. The fact that right as I was posting my case YPM made the post about it being a serious vote does not invalidate my point.

Sandwolf posted:Couldn’t this be explained by your argument about what constitutes pressure though? Like just digging in and arguing your brains out and then when the dust settles you’ve been arguing about the connotative definition of a word I'm not sure where the narrative that we were arguing about pressure comes from. I made, I think, 2 posts, about it? One to say that votes aren't needed for pressure and another to say people started talking about it.

Toalpaz posted:Amnistar is still being very defensive and reading like 'anyone but me'. Merk is lurking. Amni: Doubles down on a specific case, keeps pointing out what the point of the case was and how YPM is scum. Toal: Man, amni sure wants anyone but him cuddled! o.O

Toalpaz posted:the context is that you spent 2 days trying to make a real case and then gave up and voted me because it was easy? Oh no, I'd love to get YPM cuddled, but there is more than one scum, and your return to the thread makes it clear you don't know what was going on and just threw shade at the current target of the town's attention.

I'd switch to Dancer, and if we don't will push to use our free kill on the tommorrow. Not feeling the dragon or hum cases personally, wouldn't switch for them. I could be convinced to do ETR though. Do we have enough people around to make the question worth considering?

Your Personal Muse posted:Id like you to expand on this. Is there someone on your list that you think wouldn’t be a town lunch? Especially in light of moving your vote to ETR after saying that.
