Is this what you mean by extrapolating or whatever the word you used was? He doesn't make any point here. He just summarizes DDL's posts to justify a vote for him. It's a big, color coded post though, so is it supposed to be kosher?
IDK. What is Speedchuck accusing DDL of here? What is Speedchuck's aim? To borrow a phrase, what has speedchuck done other than summarize a guys posts and claim he's doing things that Chuck himself is arguably guilty of?Nobody asked me about Dom's post.

Re: Pikachu Tribe - Day 2
My point being you’re being a sort of biased against speedchuck. It’s like you’re not taking into account other players and focusing, tunneling onto one person.
Maybe that’s how you play, but I try to keep a constant updating view of as many players as I can handle

You were talking about how the mafia team was spread across both tribes. I just don't understand the "but no" qualifier.

But no, they had a lynch as well.
I am thinking there was a failed nightkill on Pikaside.

I can see where my thought process wasn't clear, now that you explained which part you thought I was talking about.Maybe the mafia only have one nightkill total?
But no, the other tribe had to have a lynch for the game to make sense. And it wouldn't be right if townies had two lynches and mafia only one nightkill.
Therefore, we must have had a failed nightkill here.

Re: Pikachu Tribe - Day 2
I don't believe I have ever killed her (I don't remember doing so, anyhow), but if I ever did, I am confident that I never did so early. I would certainly kill either Eloh or nijuukyugou if game flow dictated it (or I somehow knew one of them was a role checker or something of the sort), but early on I don't see myself ever doing that. I grant that you could argue that I'm on a team with somebody who was adamant about killing her, or that, since she has a second role, I might have no qualm about taking a shot at her first, but neither is the case here.

Re: Pikachu Tribe - Day 2
I've been feeling better and better about speed so I am going back to including DDL and DH on my short list. Speed's thoughts on DDL are compelling, and I agree with sprit on DH (that he is showing bias against speed/a double standard in favor of DDL)

Re: Pikachu Tribe - Day 2
Here's my take on speedchuck at this point.
If he's bad, he has to be faking ignorance. He's been adamant that alignments can't change. He's been on colonialbob's ass like twice now. And there's one or two things more I don't really remember and don't feel like digging up.
speedchuck, if he is bad, is a strategist, and a strategist needs to be informed.
The only way speedchuck is mafia right now is if he is acutely aware of his reputation as a strategist and is playing "town fool," as it were.

Re: Pikachu Tribe - Day 2
If Epignosis wasn't fucking with me and his legitimate point was "Speedchuck would have to be acutely aware of his meta and actively pretending to be a doofus to go against it" Then speedchuck already showed he was acutely aware of his meta when he told me all about it. Ergo, he's bad.Long Con wrote: ↑Tue Feb 27, 2018 11:26 pmDom agreed with this pretty readily, but I'd prefer if you finish the ellipsis, finish the sentence.DharmaHelper wrote: ↑Tue Feb 27, 2018 10:12 pmHe spent a whole post using past games and WIFOM to defend himself so.....Epignosis wrote: ↑Tue Feb 27, 2018 10:07 pm Here's my take on speedchuck at this point.
If he's bad, he has to be faking ignorance. He's been adamant that alignments can't change. He's been on colonialbob's ass like twice now. And there's one or two things more I don't really remember and don't feel like digging up.
speedchuck, if he is bad, is a strategist, and a strategist needs to be informed.
The only way speedchuck is mafia right now is if he is acutely aware of his reputation as a strategist and is playing "town fool," as it were.

You were talking about how the mafia team was spread across both tribes. I just don't understand the "but no" qualifier. I'll take it back as a scum-slip, but I need you to explain to me in little kid words what I'm not getting.speedchuck wrote: ↑Mon Feb 26, 2018 6:58 pm Maybe the mafia is spread across tribes and the only nightkill was over there?
But no, they had a lynch as well.
I am thinking there was a failed nightkill on Pikaside.
I can see where my thought process wasn't clear, now that you explained which part you thought I was talking about.Maybe the mafia only have one nightkill total?
But no, the other tribe had to have a lynch for the game to make sense. And it wouldn't be right if townies had two lynches and mafia only one nightkill.
Therefore, we must have had a failed nightkill here.

Re: Pikachu Tribe - Day 2
I just think that if someone is continually bringing up their own meta as a defense, then it'd be natural that they're looking to subvert their meta.
Gotcha.

Re: Pikachu Tribe - Day 2
Heh. Shaddup, you. That plan would have worked if it weren't for the 6 things that went wrong, all of which I should have known were possibilities.
Nah. I like my meta. I like being the straight player as scum that everyone can trust, and I like being the horrible town player. Nobody will lynch me when I'm scum, because I play well. Nobody will lynch me when I'm town, because I suck but it's my meta. It's the perfect plan!
I've been following it steadfastly for a year now and it's been pretty productive. I can't think of any counter-examples, though I'd be happy to be introduced to one.
I don't know what you mean, but I am annoying, so I think I can handle it!

"Wanted to look productive."
Psh. I'm pretty good at blending when bad. Let me give you some meta context.
I just got out of two scum games and a town game. MK, LOTR, and Buffy.
Scum: I survived in MK until I alignment claimed, with only Mac and maybe Dunya voicing suspicion along the way. Nothing gained any traction. I survived in LOTR by making posts, giving effort, and laying low. Typical scum games for me. Clean, smart, calculated (except for the alignment claim. Don't ask.)
Town: I survived in Buffy as town because my D1 play was crappy and my BTSC partner wasted his role protecting me. Then I gambited in order not to be lynched, despite having a lynchproof I forgot about, got lynched anyway and survived. I then vigged two townies, wrote off the ENTIRE EFFING SCUMTEAM as town, and lost the game, despite having gut scumreads on some of the baddies in early game. It was a crapshoot, and I made some weird choices, especially in the early days.
Tell me, which one of these recent games more matches my behavior in this game?
If you think I'm good enough to calculate my horrendous town game and put on an act, then i thank you for the compliment. But I LIKE having little suspicion. I LIKE playing scum games and being the supahtown smart guy. I LIKE being on top of things. But I'm not a good enough hunter to do that as town.
You can hate self-calls to meta if you want, but the fact of the matter is: if I were scum, I'd have an inkling of an idea what I'm doing.

Re: Pikachu Tribe - Day 2
I suspect DH because he hasn't done anything definitive to advance the civilian cause. He pokes, prods, says sarcastic shit, posts the usual gifs and videos, begs the question, assumes people are bad to accuse them of being bad, acts like accountability means anything (it rarely does) and his posts look like he's just trying to get somebody lynched...except yesterday when he didn't.
If, on the other hand, I am to defend DH, I can only do so on two fronts:
First, a civilian DH likes toying with people more than a mafia DH. That's my experience from many moons ago.
Second, if you were to accept the premise that mafia struggle to generate the level of content DH has (a premise I still don't agree with, but some zealots buy into this like it's a religion and only MP is the Devil), then DH is likely a civilian. I won't go there myself.
Discuss.

1. Hasn't done anything to advance the civilian cause ----> Meaning what? I have a suspect, I'm following that lead.

2. Pokes Prods, etc etc and so on ----> Yes hello we've met.
3. Begs and assumes and etc ----> No wrong I have proof you're just ignoring the proof because you're you.
4. Acts like accountability means anything ----> Adverbs
5. Trying to get someone lynched ----> Gasp! In a game of mafia? Be still my heart.

Re: Pikachu Tribe - Day 2
You haven't done anything definitive. You are leaving important words out of what I say. Your suspicion of speedchuck doesn't mean anything to me. You voted him Day 1 when he presumably could not be lynched, and you are mischaracterizing my defense of him by omitting the second part of it.DharmaHelper wrote: ↑Wed Feb 28, 2018 12:25 am1.
