How would you describe you as scum in your own words? Cos you were surprised earlier when someone thought this was you as scum, so if we're talking behaviour what is scum metalmarsh like?Metalmarsh89 wrote:Thanks.

Last game I was mafia, I did jackshit the whole game, just teasing people and having fun. A Gentleman's Guide to Mafia
The time before that, after doing shenanigans on Day 1, I was the most vocal scumhunty player in the game (after MP was nightkilled). I wasn't a great "civilian", but I was the most active. Angry Birds Mafia
I was also mafia in Recruitment Mafia, but I was recruited to the mafia team Night 5, and the game doesn't really describe one's "mafia style" like a normal game would. But we still had to eliminate the other mafia team, and we were successful.
Looking back, our teams did win all three of those games, and they happened to be 3 of the last 4 games I've played here.
Dunno if that tells you much.

You are blaming me for all the lynches? I stand by all of my votes. I made a case for each of the votes I have cast with the exception of Jay on Day 6 which is after this post was made. If (I was going to ISO jay but I ended up not having time to do so. This is my bad.) After reading more I do not think that Jay is scum.
If you are going to blame me for these you can also include the huge argument that started the case against mac and my defense of sorsha.
If you wish to hold me accountable by all mean do so, but first be sure you read all of my cases regarding the votes.

Re: [NIGHT 5] Talking Heads Mafia (RYM #90)
I find this to be interesting. Though the tone is sarcastic in nature the implication/association that Mac was trying to make here is clear. Even though this is most likely false, based on Jay's actions Mac, still planted a seed of association with JJJ even when he most likely figured that he would be lynched.MacDougall wrote:You cracked the case guys. Jimmy has been publicly orchestrating town lynches on purpose while maintaining a vocal town read on a teammate and we both bussed Long Con on day 2 because he asked us to.
Or we are both townies who have a town read on each other and both had a scum read on a scum player.
And in a twist of fate you two are our teammates.

I play hostile and provocative for a reason and you know why I do it. Same as it ever was.
I don't have any issue with anybody having a scum read on me. That comes with the territory. I have issues with players who go along with half cocked cases without criticizing them first. I don't even fault Matt his case, after it all came out in the wash I can see where he got the idea from, despite there being a glaring hole or two.

Re: [DAY 7] Talking Heads Mafia (RYM #90)
So why would you be so surprised that someone might find your play in this game scummy? You don't seem too vocal scumhunty this game, maybe more like your first example, but if you're good at switching masks as scum why act like its confusing why we should think this particular mask is scummy?Metalmarsh89 wrote:Good question.motel room wrote:How would you describe you as scum in your own words?

Re: [DAY 7] Talking Heads Mafia (RYM #90)
Ok, so I literally have two hours time this afternoon [EDIT: one hour left at the time of submitting this] (because of some bullshit back-and-forth trips to the school where I teach, for board meetings and other irrelevant shit, both before and three hours from now on) and will have two-ish more in the evening after I come back from German course and have dinner. My day and game time is pretty toast, till EoD, but what can I do?
First, I'm going to take b24's and Epig's idea about scrutinizing the tally and make a monster out of it, same as I ever do, by expanding it to a list of all the tallies, marked with colors on flipped statuses, so far. It won't be up to the standards of G-Man's technicolor lists, then again I am not G-Man. Red means confirmed mafia, green means civilian. Every mafia kill will be also green. For the sake of not putting too much interpretation into this list-making, the SK kills (except for Golden) will be orange - although, personally, except HamburgerBoy, I am fairly convinced those victims were also civilians. Also for the same sake, I will leave myself uncoloured, although y'all should really put in me in green, k.
Day 1
I also have written down tempvotes from JJJ on LC (early on, switched it) and Choutas on Mac.
Questions out of this:
BWT was lynched. LC distanced from BWT wagon. Could teammates have gone there?
If not, did LC's teammates spread? Maybe Floyd, maybe Choutas, maybe on the Russ wagon?
How can we interpret seaside's vote for MacBaddie?
LC - MacBaddie forced antagonism was just proven, could LC - sig be the same? Could sig be bad?
Regardless of sig's alignment, LC still made a "real" case on sig, could teammates have also nested there?
Day 2
Temp votes on scum: motel room early on LC (back afterwards), Sorsha on Mac (irrelevant), LC on Mac (confirmed distancing), Zebra on LC (irrelevant)
I think this is still a very important day to analyse. Apart from Epig, b24 is almost confirmed to have had no LC teammates on. If anyone is of the opinion that bussing LC (whether planned or not) was not what teammates did on that Day, then you seriously need to come with some names from other directions.
Questions from this:
LC mid-wave includes sig, sea, wilg. Too early to judge either of these as bussers or just the right time for any teammate to have done so?
LC final-wave includes Diiny, motel, b24, JJJ, Russ? Bussers here?
Llama wagon got real serious, until Zebra, JJJ and Golden backed away. Did JJJ switch to LC to buss him or to send him to hell as a civ?
Day 3
No temp votes on confirmed MacBaddie.
MacBaddie made a temp vote on Roxy, then jumped on Golden.
Sorsha wagon was huge at one point. Zebra (civ), Dev (civ), Bull, Wilgy, Golden (civ) backed away from it.
Only sig backed away from my wagon, moved to Golden.
Questions:
So what ratio is more likely, between me and Golden? Is it a mix, some here, some there? MacBaddie for instance could have added to my vote, but avoided me like the plague, and attached himself to Golden very early on.
I'm not bad, so keep in mind that between Sorsha, Golden and I, the mafia didn't give a shit who'd get lynched, but they still could have sought not to make too much noise with a case on either of us, just in case they'd look bad or catch heat post-flip.
Day 4
Only temp vote on MacBaddie from Golden (civ).
MacBaddie made a temps on Sorsha, jumped to Matt, jumped to motel, then finally going back on Sorsha.
Well this is a fat one. Again a reminder that the mafia team knew both Devin and Sorsha are civ wagons, but this time the amount of wagoning almost makes me feel they were more comfortable planting themselves anywhere.
Question:
tbh
Day 5
Temp votes on MacBaddie from b24, Matt.
Looks same as it ever was, as well. Everyone on both wagons is still alive and unconfirmed.
Devin got lynched probably by being drugged and with or without extra manipulation from civs (Pulled Up? Blind?!).
Questions:
Wait a minute, Matt hounded Mac the whole day without actually voting him in the end?
Day 5
Bit hard for any reveals here, except MacBaddie's, at least for the time being.
Questions:
How likely was bussing Mac? How likely was trying to save him?
If you ask me, I think two factors weigh in on the latter:
a. I dropped the Mac case on Day 6, so despite Mac being under pressure before, it still must have surprised them
b. Mac was never a done deal, till the very moment, so I believe the mentality was that he could be saved rather than that he should be dropped in acid.
Most of Mac's lynchers look consistent, from previous Days, although I'd double-check how MM and Russ converted to this wagon.
Most of Diiny's voters have townreaded Mac till the very end. Combine two possible teammate tendencies - "never losing hope, until the bitter end, that Mac could be saved" with "keeping the townread on Mac, until the bitter end, or otherwise risk blowing themselves up by suddenly flipping on the Mac wagon or waffling" and I think we definitely have teammates on that Diiny wagon.
If Diiny is also bad, then everything's just fucked up.

For the sake of not putting too much interpretation into this list-making, the SK kills (except for Golden) will be orange - although, personally, except HamburgerBoy, I am fairly convinced those victims were also civilians. Also for the same sake, I will leave myself uncoloured, although y'all should really put in me in green, k.

Day 1
Spoiler: show
Questions out of this:
BWT was lynched. LC distanced from BWT wagon. Could teammates have gone there?
If not, did LC's teammates spread? Maybe Floyd, maybe Choutas, maybe on the Russ wagon?
How can we interpret seaside's vote for MacBaddie?
LC - MacBaddie forced antagonism was just proven, could LC - sig be the same? Could sig be bad?
Regardless of sig's alignment, LC still made a "real" case on sig, could teammates have also nested there?
Day 2
Spoiler: show
Temp votes on scum: motel room early on LC (back afterwards), Sorsha on Mac (irrelevant), LC on Mac (confirmed distancing), Zebra on LC (irrelevant)
I think this is still a very important day to analyse. Apart from Epig, b24 is almost confirmed to have had no LC teammates on. If anyone is of the opinion that bussing LC (whether planned or not) was not what teammates did on that Day, then you seriously need to come with some names from other directions.
Questions from this:
LC mid-wave includes sig, sea, wilg. Too early to judge either of these as bussers or just the right time for any teammate to have done so?
LC final-wave includes Diiny, motel, b24, JJJ, Russ? Bussers here?
Llama wagon got real serious, until Zebra, JJJ and Golden backed away. Did JJJ switch to LC to buss him or to send him to hell as a civ?
Day 3
Spoiler: show
MacBaddie made a temp vote on Roxy, then jumped on Golden.
Sorsha wagon was huge at one point. Zebra (civ), Dev (civ), Bull, Wilgy, Golden (civ) backed away from it.
Only sig backed away from my wagon, moved to Golden.
Questions:
So what ratio is more likely, between me and Golden? Is it a mix, some here, some there? MacBaddie for instance could have added to my vote, but avoided me like the plague, and attached himself to Golden very early on.
I'm not bad, so keep in mind that between Sorsha, Golden and I, the mafia didn't give a shit who'd get lynched, but they still could have sought not to make too much noise with a case on either of us, just in case they'd look bad or catch heat post-flip.
Day 4
Spoiler: show
MacBaddie made a temps on Sorsha, jumped to Matt, jumped to motel, then finally going back on Sorsha.
Well this is a fat one. Again a reminder that the mafia team knew both Devin and Sorsha are civ wagons, but this time the amount of wagoning almost makes me feel they were more comfortable planting themselves anywhere.
Question:

Day 5
Spoiler: show
Looks same as it ever was, as well. Everyone on both wagons is still alive and unconfirmed.

Questions:
Wait a minute, Matt hounded Mac the whole day without actually voting him in the end?

Day 5
Spoiler: show
Bit hard for any reveals here, except MacBaddie's, at least for the time being.
Questions:
How likely was bussing Mac? How likely was trying to save him?
If you ask me, I think two factors weigh in on the latter:
a. I dropped the Mac case on Day 6, so despite Mac being under pressure before, it still must have surprised them
b. Mac was never a done deal, till the very moment, so I believe the mentality was that he could be saved rather than that he should be dropped in acid.
Most of Mac's lynchers look consistent, from previous Days, although I'd double-check how MM and Russ converted to this wagon.
Most of Diiny's voters have townreaded Mac till the very end. Combine two possible teammate tendencies - "never losing hope, until the bitter end, that Mac could be saved" with "keeping the townread on Mac, until the bitter end, or otherwise risk blowing themselves up by suddenly flipping on the Mac wagon or waffling" and I think we definitely have teammates on that Diiny wagon.
If Diiny is also bad, then everything's just fucked up.

with 5 mafiosi alive I think it's likely that at least one scumster was cheeky enough to bus.

Re: [DAY 7] Talking Heads Mafia (RYM #90)
Here are my thoughts on jay: when he was scum and I was also playing (I didn't read the champs game in enough detail to divine anything useful about scumjj other than the fact that, yes, he knows when to shut up
) J had something that immediately set me off when I saw it. (I was dead at this point so I couldn't take him down. alas). He was very deliberately buddying another play, my fellow bowie fan Mungbean, I think it was. It wasn't so much that he was buddying per se, but that his methods for buddying were very un-jjj, namely, dismissing evidence or really just not grappling with it. J can be wrong as town; he has been and he will be. He's obviously evidentially damned, and his scum game shows that he does like saving teammates over bussing them, which helps the case. I'd just like to see something that gives me that vibe in his ph.
If anyone can bring something like that to my attention, J taking a stance that doesn't consider evidence or is extremely suggestive of deliberately downplaying or disregarding it (as opposed to a read that goes against what some evidence might say, which everyone does and has to do when amassing all the evidence)
I'm not opposed to the lynch at all, and he's one of the better candidates along with brian. My problem is that I wasn't getting particularly scummy vibes from him before, so while it's evidentially sound I would like to get my gut to join the fun

Re: [DAY 7] Talking Heads Mafia (RYM #90)
WIFOM, that's why. So he can make this argument. It's not unheard of, especially when you consider that scumJ also likes saving his scummates.bcornett24 wrote:I haven't reached this point in reading yet. Is this why he is so suspicious as of right now?Strawhenge wrote:Here's a nutshell on my Jay feelings, since he's leading in votes.
Jay is, almost needless to say, hard as fuhhhh to read. I think his actions near the last EOD were quite scummy, and a couple nuggets in his voting history are questionable. However, I'm reticent to hop on that bandwagon because one of Jay's greatest strengths is one of his weaknesses (no offense meant, Jay): when Jay sets his sights on an objective, he comes off as really sure of it. He's a confident player, and rightfully so. The reason this can be to his detriment is that if he's wrong about somebody, e.g. Mac, his adamant incorrect case might seem inauthentic.
To wit, it's possible that Jay was simply wrong about Mac. But since he was adamant about his stance, that's why we're not trusting him so much right now.
I stand by my two-star rating on him; he's giving me a nasty feeling. I just want to throw the possibility out there so that we can approach his case evenly.
I do not think Jay would intentionally throw himself in that position. My bet is that Mac is rolling around his floor laughing at this. I would see Jay more likely to bus Mac or distance himself than to defend him and potentially risk his own lynch after. Why would he, as town purposefully risk bringing about his own lynch? This would be absurdly stupid, and even more so if he was scum. This seems very similar to the sorsha case and I am going to take a look at who voted for her and who is currently voting for Jay.

Re: [DAY 7] Talking Heads Mafia (RYM #90)
So I have sig as the person who put the first vote on Diiny. At that point, Mac led with 6 votes. No other player had more than one vote, except JJJ (seaside and b24) (BR at one point had 3, but MM and Epig had already switched to Mac, leaving only Russ with his vote on BR).
It's clear Diiny wasn't drugged, since he didn't edge out Mac in the tally, so why would sig's choice, if baddie, be to put his vote and try to start something on a player that's not vote manipulatable? Nonetheless, it doesn't change that Dinny would have been a good option, considering he had been sussed enough before.
It also doesn't change that sig, if baddie, would have looked bad voting BR or JJ. He has no read on BR, I think, and his suss on JJJ was also far behind (Day 3), oscillating with some "look at the good work JJJ pulled on Rico" during the same day.
Unfortunately, sig also has very little on Diiny himself, apart from his lynch post. In fact, he has more posts in which he questioned Diiny voters than the opposite.
> MacBaddie moans about there being no counterwagon to avoid his "mislynch"
and seaside replies
Was this like a total marshalling signal for the Diiny counterwagon to get going?!
You already have my history on Diiny votes from there on., so this is the big picture of the Diiny counterwagon.
I have to go shower and leave soon.

Re: [DAY 7] Talking Heads Mafia (RYM #90)
That comparison to the Mungbean buddy-fest is a good one Diiny. I buddied him, a townie, because he trusted me snd I knew people would wrongly link him to me. Scum 101.
Now I'm getting a dose of my own medicine. In this game Mac is JJJ and JJJ is Mungbean.

Re: [DAY 7] Talking Heads Mafia (RYM #90)
I thought you were scummier than Mac. When there are two big wagons, you'll find that I tend to pick a side. This isn't RYM, where my word holds some sway -- otherwise Black Rock would have been the counterwagon, not you.Diiny wrote:Remind me before I go food shopping, J, did you think I was scum as well?

@Diiny- This being said, you just said that scum may know when to shut his mouth, from my experience, granted it is far more limited than your own, town Jay is like an engigizer bunny and keeps going.
The comparison you have made though is worth noting.

bcornett I think you're bad because you seem to have very selective question answering skills. Questions that have been asked for days, not just once or twice, are hard to miss.
The only thing that leaps to mind for J3 downplaying or avoiding evidence is his apparent inability to discuss Wilgy. If I recall correctly he made a post asking for a rundown of the suspicions against him and then hushed up about it.

Re: [DAY 7] Talking Heads Mafia (RYM #90)
Your accusations are weak from a Jay perspective. You have not made any effort at a case against me. Once, you dropped the comment "I think we're seeing baddie metalmarsh here, but I really don't know what that looks like". You later down-played my role in the lynching of MacDougall, and though you acknowledged my responses, you seem to have forgotten them.JaggedJimmyJay wrote:Marsh, I think yours is the worst vote on my wagon. You've condemned me without bothering to engage me and give me any opportunity. I doubt town Marsh treats me this way.
Also, your meta-reading of MacDougall was incorrect, so I don't know how much you plan to trust your meta-read of me right now.

You're right, I haven't done much to support my vote today, but I did have more to say about it Day 6. This sounds weird, but a night phase would have been nice for things to cool off after a wild Day 6. I've had other things to attend to, so haven't had time to revoice my Jay suspicion.
Addendum: I rebuke, town-Jay would not treat me this way.

I understand why Epignosis's vote doesn't look bad. He started the day off with a small case and a reason for his vote. However, what about the other three votes: Elohcin, seaside, and TheFloyd?
