I wish he'd comment on more cases than just mine and Moonspeak's
Now that you've backed off your point, You'll get your wish.
##Unvote: Serpentariushe's trying too hard to defend the newbie.
It's kind of hard to tell people their reasoning for voting for someone is bad and NOT defend the person they're voting for at the same time. Should I just let any bandwagon I feel is scummy go forth?
No, I'm actually asking this question. I use to think that was a bad idea until the last game where everyone was too busy trying to lynch said person to notice I had caught scum.
I will concede that if Days So doesn't start shaping up before the end of day 1, he's worthy of the day's lynch and will vote/hammer accordingly, But I still feel somethings wrong for voting for someone who doesn't know how to act like a townie whether he is one or not.
Yeah, that point was sarcasm if you didn't notice it.
I didn't. Thanks for pointing that out.
I'm saying that if we immediately give him a free pass because he's a new player and don't suspect him as scum, then
seriously, how much do you think a free pass is worth? If you say until Lylo, I'm putting you down on my blacklist for the rest of the game.
Analysing individual scumminess will only get you so far. Analysing relationships between players will get you closer to a final result because in the end that's what you're looking for - a scumteam, not a single scum. In Umineko, by attempting to analyse pairings on D4 I got closer to the actual Carth/Serp scumpair than I managed to get anywhere else in the game.
Let's take a closer analysis of this point, even ignoring that fact that this only works during lylo or after we've lynched scum (You know, after we have solid evidence). You pulled up the Serp/Carth scumteam point, and then dismissed it due to a single bus attempt and went after Sodium. I on the other hand had taken a look at Serpentarius' posts and saw some Subconscious Scummy intent, and voted while making a case based on it. Which of us wound up being closer to targeting scum than the other?
People HAVE pointed out what he's doing wrong, and he's STILL incomprehensible and useless. If we go any further we'll practically be playing the game for him.
83: First instance of Days So getting his scummy play explained to him93: Days So's mistake becomes apparent98: Second instance of Days So getting his scummy play explain to himCan I not assume that before he showed up here Tenshi did a little research about the game? Can I not assume that he'd have the initiative to look up a phrase he didn't recognise rather than make us explain everything to him?
You call my point of refusing newbies and sending them to Mafiascum to play games designed to teach them "AtE", yet you fully expect them to play as if they've been through two or three of those kinds of games already?

And there was nothing concretely suspicious at that point. Was I supposed to pretend having a strong opinion?
Would it really have been that hard to have an opinion? Why were you trying to avoid having an opinion that wasn't "Strong" enough earlier in day one, when bad opinions are easily excusable?
And it's no problem for scum to let a townie dig his own grave without getting involved either.
No, but it probably wouldn't hurt to throw in a vote. Especially if you have yet to throw one around.
alright, Looking back now...
Neitz 53 - points out two flaws in Serp's voting, Then Unvotes. You don't bother to find something worth putting your vote on, nor do you bother to explain why you're not voting for Serp even with the points of the bad case and the WiFoM.
Neitz 65 - Suwako already pointed out what's wrong with this post. Two Null Tells on the same person, and still no effort put into looking at anyone besides Serpentarius.
Neitz 103 - pokes suspicion onto me and Jan-san by putting out the opinion that the Alice vote was worthless. This would be worth more if you had presented your opinion of the Alice bandwagon while it was happening. Also, your vote on Days So worries me, since it was made during the "Let's all bandwagon Tenshi/Moon" phase of the game.
I'd like to see what you think about more than just Serp, Days So, and bandwagons that have already failed. Right now, though, it's worth a vote.
Carthrat 49 - Brings up a serious point on Serpentarius, but in such a drastic way that I had to check the next post before taking this one seriously. I can't tell if this is real outrage or not. Also, Votes Serp.
Carth 66 - Doesn't think Alice is necessarily Scummy, thinks Days So's vote is obviously a joke vote. I like this post up until the prod on me, Ignoring Jan-san (already discussed) but also doesn't bring anything up of Serp or Suwako's vote, even though Suwako left his random vote due to Alice not having spoken up. Why focus mainly on the third vote even though Suwako also had no intention of making the number any lower?
Carth 78 - Tell's everyone to talk less :V. Or use less words, I'm guessing? Admits Jan-san is as suspicious as the rest of the wagon. Then continues to turn his attention to me. mentions my vote switch to Serp for him focusing too much on Alice, even though I voted Alice as well. Vote switches from Serp to Me.
Carth 85 - Explains his reason for tunneling me, but unvotes due to my take charge attitude thus far in the game. Continues with the Alice Bandwagon theory, and chooses to go after Jan-san who he felt was the only one with no business on it. Votes Jan-san.
Carth 89 - Accuses Jan-san of Active lurking, Which he is.
Carth 92 - Question's Days So's vote and what he learned.
Carth 92 - Changes his opinion on whether or not scumpairing should be used on day one in order to suggest a Serp/Days So pairing. If this is true, what of your opinions on the Alice bandwagon now? He's apparently dropped it, since he unvoted Jan-san and voted Days So.
Carth 101 and 102 - says coaching is bad because then the newbie wouldn't be giving his raw opinions. And he was before? :V
Basically, It was easy following along a townie thought process behind Carthrat's voting up until the wall that was Days So, where he drops everything and starts up a "Serp and Days So are Scum, End of Game." Attitude. I can't really imagine what would cause him to spout out post 92, but I imagine if there is an answer to that, it will become apparent later in the game. To be honest, I figured there would have been much more to look at for someone who's changed his vote four times in two days.
And Since Xan has only made two posts, I might as well throw in his analysis free of charge.
Xan 77 - Says Days So's vote was worth enough discussion to get us out of RVS. Gets a bad vibe from Serp's vote on Alice, but chooses not to say anything definite on it. He accidentally WiFoM's all over himself, which I think is less him trying to confuse others, and more actually confusing himself. He does go along with Carthrat's suspicion against Me and Jan-san.
Votes Carthrat for not Contributing much, with Neitz following closely behind on contributing a little bit more. This actually fits in nicely, since it was the post before Carthrat started to actually get active.
Xan 97 - for all his opinion in 77 was worth, he drops everything and focuses on Days So. He actually presents his reasoning in a compelling manner, but it's still for reasons similar to Carthrat's, and it still adds a weird fluidity to the bandwagon on Days So.
Basically, I can see the beginnings of a townie trying, but I would definitely need to see more from him before I decide if we shouldn't lynch him.
Basically for all it's worth, Neitz is the one I'm most worried about, so I'll
##Vote: Neitz
