Using a vig on D1 isn't scummy or townie, but that was loving scummy. Just vig someone for no reason right at the start of the day based on nothing, terrible

Hal Insandenza posted:I think that’s a bit reductive for a start of D1 vig, this seems more alignment neutral as I could see scum thinking it’s easy to hide behind the joke rationale and get an easy extra kill in This is literally exactly my thought process

Grandicap posted:Exactly. Firing like this doesn't give a scum vig any of the stuff that they want. What? Yes, it does. It gets them one death closer to their win condition. Your response exactly shows why scum would think they could get away with a D1 vig

Scientastic posted:I need to read the IA Grandicap posts again after I’ve had some tea I was fully prepared to admit that I was wrong, and that maybe I overreacted to Bif's vig, but I don't think I did. I still think it's Bif. I reread IA, and he seems sincere and unguarded in his posting. Grandi seems to be reaching, especially for D1.

Grandicap posted:JoseV's response feels mega town to me. I don't think scum would put that much deliberation in basically side stepping the question. Feels a lot like SiV's response to the game in Bernie. I agree, I read Jose's response to Sandwolf as really townie.

Sandwolf posted:But then why not just say shoot bif instead of this “I’d shoot bif but then again maybe not because she’s a viable lunch candidate today”? That feels like you know Bif could eat it today and are okay with that happening like that, but if you thought Bif was scum wouldn’t you just want her flipped so we could spend the rest of D1 analyzing the fallout of that? I see what you're driving at here, but I'm not sure I agree: I can see using a vig on someone you think is scummy but that you don't think is going to get executed, otherwise it's kind of a waste of a vig, right?

I was looking back at some of the Grandi votes, and Steak’s votes and posts really started making think he was scum who “knew” Grandi was town (or rather, not the same alignment as him) so I went back through his posts. And then I read his “I think I’m town” post Steak is essentially confirmed town for me

# ¿ Mar 3, 2021 21:09 |

I’ve reread the posts around Grandicap trying to see signs of knowing his alignment that would indicate scum mind, I might need to do a more thorough read tomorrow morning Here are my NOTES Scum mind in votes: B- (seemed to be VERY sure Grandicap, Bif and Sand were all town) IA (massively over explained vote on Grandi) SIV (I don’t like the way she performatively talked herself into the vote) Toal somewhat (seems a bit overly reluctant) Townie in posting about Grandi: Keane Sub Rosa Cant tell: Hal Cena Jose Voodoo

I strongly disagree on your assessment of Keane’s alignment, but more than that, I feel like scum would be more likely to be overly self conscious and apologise for absence. This is a forced vote. ##Vote B-

I’d be willing to bet scum aren’t under any pressure right now. b-minus1 posted:##unvote I do not want to vote Grandicap. I would rather vote bif. Or Hal for that awful vote b-minus1 posted:##vote siv b-minus1 posted:I will not vote Grandicap b-minus1 posted:Allow me to rephrase. I will not vote obvious townie Grandicap b-minus1 posted:Lets just get siv instead. Anyone else who votes Grandicap is scum B- betrays knowledge of Grandi’s alignment in his extraordinary and performative reluctance to vote for him

Voodoofly posted:Science I still don’t see how you are clearing Sub off one post, calling IA scum off one post, and then also clearing steak off one post in a way that makes it sound like steak is too naive to do something performative as scum. Because one post is enough to form an opinion. I’ve been trying to do this more recently, trying to understand the motivation and thinking behind posts, instead of relying on classic scum tells. Largely because all of the things I was told are scum tells when I started playing, that townies should avoid at all costs, all seem to be things that the newer players do all the time. I read Steak’s post and I find it psychologically townie. I find Rosa’s post (and posts in general) to be motivated by a townie feeling. That is not to say he is “cleared”, you’re mischaracterising my current impression of their alignment. I found IA’s vote for Grandicap to be over the top and scummy and put him on my “scummy enough to pay more attention to” radar. Again, you’re overstating how strongly I have voiced that opinion, he’s on the scummier end of the spectrum because of that post, but you’ll notice I am not voting for him. I wrote a list of players and judged how I felt about their alignment based on their posts around Grandicap, you’re acting like I’m forcing stronger alignment reads than I’ve actually made. Except on Steak, he’d have to do something really loving scummy to make me change my mind.

I don’t understand why Voodoofly is so antsy about making an alignment call off one post. In my experience, one scummy post is how you start realising that someone is scum. And that one scummy post is sometimes all you need.

Jose Valasquez posted:I dislike both the first post and Sci's response to it. Night action speculation isn't inherently townie and it gives scum an easy thing to talk about without giving actual reads. This is interesting to me: I initially read Sub Rosa’s post as saying “let’s not put too much weight on night actions, because there could be all sorts going on”, which is what I found townie. But actually, you’re right, I think I read it through the lens of my own thinking, and it’s not saying what I thought.

b-minus1 posted:It’s siv. The person you have wanted to lunch since yesterday. I don’t think you really missed this. I’m not sure we should be making judgement calls about whether we believe VF’s recollection of D1 when he has been very clear about why he didn’t have his mind on the game.

Rereading Rosa, I am rescinding my town call, I was misinterpreting what was being said. Reading it back, I can’t for the life of me understand what I was thinking, I completely read it wrong in a way, just looking for what I wanted to see rather than what was written. It’s literally the opposite of what I thought it was, it’s incredible to me that I read it wrong.

Sub Rosa posted:Is this just a lie? b- used the dark arts (unless I'm misinterpreting I think in the same way steak did) and they said you were in fact on the forums. I can't see any posts from Keane anywhere other than mafia games, so I don't think we can draw that conclusion

I buy the lurking accusation if people are posting on other forums, but not if they just appear in the online users. People leave their computers on all the time, in a recent game Grandicap was on SA on a tab on his phone like 24h after he had last been actually active online and presumably would have shown up as an online user. You can't accuse someone of lurking just for not being around, if CCKeane was active in another game or another forum at the same time, then fine, but lurking is different to "not posting"

Voodoofly posted:So are you still defending your “this one post by sub is totally town” when I said it’s scummy and threw me off while also admitting you completely read it wrong and it was saying the opposite of why you called him town based off just that one post? What, no, how did you read it like that? I’m saying that I drew the wrong conclusion from Sub’s post and I shouldn’t have. Where do you get the idea that I am defending that stance. I’m trying to admit I was wrong. It doesn’t come naturally.

Voodoofly posted:Wait is the lurker argument not just that people weren’t around but also that they were “online” or logged in to the forums but not posting? I have seen people make this argument in the past, and yes, it is very dumb I don’t know that we can assume that’s what B- is doing, though: Rosa is saying that, but I see no evidence that B- is doing anything other than calling out people who aren’t posting enough Which is also dumb, just not as dumb

I think I already said that I was taking back my town call, but I haven’t had time to do enough of a thorough reread in that new context My concern would be that my initial impression was overly influenced by my misreading of that post, so I need to take some time to retrain my brain to the idea that Sub isn’t townie and read their posts in a less potentially biased way So no alignment call on Sub right now, maybe I can read again later

Idle Amalgam posted:Lol what makes my grandi vote scummy exactly? Just so I can know for future reference. Sure. Idle Amalgam posted:I think grandi is a good vote from the day if meta is allowed in our toolkits lol1 1. Explaining that you are going to use meta, while self-consciously acknowledging that you shouldn't, preempting any attack on your use of meta 2. Blaming Grandicap for your read if you're wrong, you get to distance yourself from actually making that call yourself 3. Preempting the idea that you are wrong, distancing yourself again from any blame The whole post is self-consciously attempting to remove any negative consequences for the vote. As it turns out, Grandi was SK, but scum wouldn't know that, they would naturally (I think) assume that if Grandi wasn't on their team, he's town, so try to get him executed while maintaining a healthy distance from the execution itself
