The first one is because it felt completely fabricated and tryhard just to impress and get town cred. I felt like the whole schmick of it was to make it look like a in-depth analysis with all the wording he had, and the dissecting of every post to lead to the ultimate good of becoming a deep wolf and power wolf his way through starting D0. The iso is similar to what Nutella's iso on me the last game was. It looks deep and stuff from surface level, but looking below the surface, it comes straight outa left field.
The second is bad cause it's well just plain old discrediting to make my thoughts look worse than what they actually are(at least imo). Making the person doubt their reads and have others not look into it much. Seeing how I believed I played bad last game and made public of that, I can see scum taking advantage of this by saying that I'm doing the same thing as last game to get into my head.
Though my vote is not on him but instead Luxy. Why? I firmly do believe that she made a scum slip there and she didn't do a good job convincing me otherwise.
Also I was also gonna argue that Sloonei didnt discrete you but he did say it directly. However he did have a point that I’ve even said before in regards to how you enter tunnels that it’s fairly hard from you to break from when you lock yourself into them
Only happens when I feel super confident in who I'm tunneling is scum. I've had past games when I've been completely unsure of my reads and had low confidence in who I was coming at is actually scum.
But also I did just play a game with you where all the people you were super tunneling were town. So I’m not fully inclined to give that one to you but I will Consider it when moving forward

Re: Arrowverse Mafia - Day 1
I do ISOs like that too. They’re valuable too. Different circumstances ask for different approaches.Luxurious wrote: ↑Mon May 20, 2019 12:53 amOkay that’s fairSloonei wrote: ↑Mon May 20, 2019 12:48 amA little of both. When I post an ISO like that, especially on Day 0/1, it is with the intent of creating reaction from as many players as possible. I wanted nutella to respond to the post because her reaction would tell me more about her. I wanted everyone else to respond because their reactions would tell me more about them, and they could add their own points either for or against my case. The ball would be rolling in a productive direction. Like I said at the top of my nutella ISO, I never make a post like that with the idea in mind that I’m delivering any sort of Final Word on the issue. I see it as the beginning of a conversation.Luxurious wrote: ↑Mon May 20, 2019 12:33 amYah that was it.Sloonei wrote: ↑Mon May 20, 2019 12:26 am @Luxurious I believe The Question you want answered is “Why don’t you inude posts where people outside of nutella start suspecting you?” If this is not the question you’re referring to, please point me in the right direction
The answer, believe it or not, is brevity. I didn’t think to include posts like that because it didn’t seem totally necessary. I was focusing on nutella, not Other People. But if I had my laptop right now I could highlight suspicions from Macdougall, Ultra (I think. Might be mixing him up with someone else), and Dragomir just off the top of my head. My concern at the time was that nutella had been keeping me at arm’s length while proclaiming a town read, but as soon as the opportunity arose to pile onto a case against me, she pounced.
I do not currently read nutella as scum and I am not currently operating under this assumption. But when I looked to nutella with an eye for suspicious behavior, that was a possibility which stood out to me.
And that’s fair. Nutella addressed it as well since she seemed to know what you were talking about. I am aware of the read swap you had because it is Very Apparent in your list
So was that a point you explicitly wanted nutella to respond to? Or was that iso made mostly as a “here’s why you too! Should scum read nutella!”
Another question you asked (I think. Maybe I inferred it or took it from someone else) was “why do you only focus on the bad aspects in this ISO?”
To answer that, it’s because I’m trying to construct an argument for why my target (in that case, nutella) is bad. I usually ISO people with the intention of reading them as bad. If I find patterns or isolated moments that are consistent with the idea of that player being scum, I share them. It doesn’t mean I’m certain that person is bad or that I’m not considering alternatives.
My issue re:Iso’s is the fact that it’s hard to see that thought process when you’re not the person making the ISO, so it looks a bit suspect.
Like I’ve seen iso’s by players (not JJJ and were actually town) where they considered both sides of the coin, and then presented the argument where the bad outweighs the good. It allows people to engage with a “okay yeah but x makes them town.” “Yes but y does the opposite of that and makes them scum as you can see here” so idk maybe I’m idealistic
But I do think MM coming back and reading your iso and going “actually the good outweighs the bad” is a genuine thought even without the information considering the progression he had in the thread

I respect that this is an extremely confusing place to be. I say i’m trying to be helpful but you have no idea what my role card says about me.

No. That was just one hypothetical. My point is that I can’t do anything with that information yet because I don’t actually know the alignment of anybody in this game but myself.

I feel I’ve more or less addressed all of those points in this ongoing exchange. How do you feel about that bussing theory now?
(The only one I haven’t addressed is the one about why I was waiting to post my nutella case. The answer to that is courtesy. I didn’t want to flood the threat too too much on Day 0. It’s the same reason I waited to name you a suspect later.)
All of this is at luxurious.

Re: Arrowverse Mafia - Day 1
No because it’s + Ev and - Ev
You’re saying that “while yes town can make these posts, I dont believe they’re town and Here’s why”
It’s so people who are town reading them can follow along and be like “well when you put it like that yeah it does look that they’re scum” because scum is also trying their best to look like town, and people are definitely going to think they are
Unless they’re openly wolfing which is pretty ballsy

Re: Arrowverse Mafia - Day 1
I do ISOs where I try to specifically argue that a player is scum (or more rarely, town) if I’m trying to kickstart something, either a suspicion for myself to pursue or some points for other people to consider and respond to.
I do ISOs where I try to measure both the good and the bad in a player when I truly don’t know what to make of them and want to establish a direction to move in.
You’ll see both if I stick around long enough.

Re: Arrowverse Mafia - Day 1
Oh. I think I know what you’re asking.
I never know for sure what anyone’s alignment is while I’m ISOing them. So if I see points for either side, I mention it. I don’t give a rat’s ass about looking “wishywashy.” Nutella will tella you that’s the area she lives in. Civilians should be uncertain of themselves and should consider both sides.
It’s when people state suspicions limply and without conviction that “wishywashy” behavior looks bad.

I don’t give a rat’s ass about looking “wishywashy.” Nutella will tella you that’s the area she lives in. Civilians should be uncertain of themselves and should consider both sides.

(The only one I haven’t addressed is the one about why I was waiting to post my nutella case. The answer to that is courtesy. I didn’t want to flood the threat too too much on Day 0. It’s the same reason I waited to name you a suspect later.)
All of this is at luxurious.
Anyway I think I’m considering it less since when I voted you, nutella was also voting there I really just Did Not Feel Good About That and I’m still missing info on the Why? Aspect of it

What “why” info are you missing?

Re: Arrowverse Mafia - Day 1
Like Nutella knows way better than to think me not posting is scum indicative.
She was my teammate for Mass Effect and I never coasted. I recently soloed two mafia wins after my whole team was lynched with pure WIM.
There is no way town Nutella decides I'm scum because I'm not posting enough. This is not a thing.

Re: Arrowverse Mafia - Day 1
Ah, I see? Have you ever seen an open wolf tactic work before? I expect it's to make town think that the player is too scummy to be wolf right?Luxurious wrote: ↑Mon May 20, 2019 1:22 amNo because it’s + Ev and - Ev
You’re saying that “while yes town can make these posts, I dont believe they’re town and Here’s why”
It’s so people who are town reading them can follow along and be like “well when you put it like that yeah it does look that they’re scum” because scum is also trying their best to look like town, and people are definitely going to think they are
Unless they’re openly wolfing which is pretty ballsy

You’re literally just a wolf voting to be a wolf and get away with it.
I was reading champs game 2 while also playing Scrimmage because Tsunami, my sites representative was there, and the wolves literally had been suspected the whole time because they were open wolfing and yet town kept? Going to other people? Until tsunami called out fable
Bless tsunami
Oh also town kept NOT VOTING
SO WOLVES LITERALLY DIDNT HAVE ANYTHING TO WORRY ABOUT
Re: Arrowverse Mafia - Day 1
I think being wishy washy is trying not to get your hands too dirty. But I guess being too firm and open to a bunch of things can be bad. Kinda reminds me of the salad scum tell which was mentioned last game.Sloonei wrote: ↑Mon May 20, 2019 1:28 am Oh. I think I know what you’re asking.

Re: Arrowverse Mafia - Day 1
That being said the game ended in a scum sweep with like 5 people who didnt vote and the game was pretty much at mylo so mods ended it since town had no chance

You were convinced I was town in Hogwarts because my play didn't make sense as a mafia member...and it didn't. I gave out too many townreads that didn't lead to enough mislynches for my team to score a victory.
IIRC, you suspected me in SHP somewhat but then Rey shot you.

LC red peaked me in Steely Dan but I don't remember if you were in it or what your read of me was.
Do you believe Nutella believes I am scum?
Re: Arrowverse Mafia - Day 1
I shall give you another chance. Back into my soft town reads you go into.Luxurious wrote: ↑Mon May 20, 2019 1:35 amI want you to decide for yourself lol. Like if you’re so sure I scum slipped, leave it. If you’re not, take it off. It’s literally up to you
Re: Arrowverse Mafia - Day 1
Yeah if ryast flipped scum then like, people needed to be replaced I think
I know Lissa was freaking out about Heroic for sure and considering it was already day 4 and the game was pretty hopeless for town she felt really bad about it
Luckily he was town so game ended

If dunya posts a big long spiel where she identifies possible scenarios for the player she’s ISOing to be either town of scum without committing to one side of the other, that’s good wishywashy.
If JaggedJimmyJay says “well maybe this person is possibly bad because of this but I don’t know, don’t look at me, go away”, that’s bas wishywashy.
It’s about the thought process more than anything else.

Re: Arrowverse Mafia - Day 1
Wilgy's posts so far have been contentless and just a bunch of fluffing. Vastly different from how he played last game which he subbed into late game but was still engaging with the players and trying to produce.
I don't really care if his posts were all in D0, doesn't mean anything. One can still try and do a bunch of townie things in D0, you just can't lynch anybody.
[VOTE: DrWilgy] aubergine

Shockheaded Peter was the other example I was thinking of, yeah.
I did not play in Steely Dan.
I can believe a reality in which nutella’s suspicion of you is legitimate right now. That doesn’t have to mean she’s right.
