Now with the continual pressure of dd5. we can expect a claim from his lover yes? Then what?
And the theory that dd5 claimed to relieve pressure off virus/ultra is super tinfoil hat. Since he would have to claim his lover at some point, meaning thats 4 scum on day 1 with claimed roles. and they expect to "win the game" like this? this is the realm of make believe.
I'm going to continue to defend dd5 on all points made on him that are silly and not alignment indicative. (yes silly, i consider 99% of this flavor talk meaningless as to what alignment dd5 is)
DD wrote:me wrote:News Flash: Earlier today didn't happen.
Uhh... what?
Storr asked me for my opinion? I can't agree with someone else's views?
His reasoning for me being scum was that I didn't listen to him and voted virus over him. My argument against that is that I don't care what he says because I think he's scum. This may not be a perfect argument, but it's not bad. No worse than anything Ultra said.
Please point them out to me and I will gladly clarify anything you would like
These are just simply my responses to some of Ultra's points. I didn't want to go back and find everything and quote them and post a short novel that everyone would skim through.

@everyone As for the manga nonsense: I don't know I'm not the mod. I told you my name and background as to why I can only talk in my QT at night. If it doesn't match up with the manga story then the mod changed it for game purposes or made a mistake. Does that matter at all? Does every single person's character line up exactly with their character?

Again don't have too much to say on this right now. I'd have to specifically look back on somethings about this point which I don't have time to right now. Other than that, your first three points here seem as about differing play styles as scummy vs townish.
It has been done. It used to actually be the norm for lover pairings to be one town one scum, however this also usually meant the opposite alignment lover could win with his lover's alignment in certain end game scenarios if they were still alive.
I don't really like how you say this like you figured it out yourself. Pancake mentioned he was doing this. Maybe you missed that fact when he said it earlier in the game but this just rubs me the wrong way. I don't really see as much fluff here as you do. Seems like Pancake is addressing things as he reads them, maybe he doesn't comment on everything but he goes into some of the details and he made a point in regards to Streaker "pounding the hammer" on the Ultra case which was kind of ignored in game. I don't think that's a complete throwaway line.
Feels like overreacting from Storr. He made a joke. Get over it.
He is questioning the situation, he questions virus, he questions streaker. These look to me of attempts at figuring out the situation and looking for a direction to proceed. Your case kind of ignored those aspects of PCM's post.
This feels like you are holding PCM to a standard that you haven't established for everyone in the game. Don't know where he stands? At this point I would say it is fairly clear he stands anti-Ultra and there's enough evidence out there to say that he is unsure about some of what Streaker has been doing. Do we know everything about his position? No. I think that's true of a lot of the people in this game. So in conclusion, I think your conclusion is mostly bs.
So my analysis of your PCM post. I think you saw someone posting in a manner that you thought you could manipulate and trick town into thinking it was scummier than it actually was. I disagree with Pancake. I don't think it had anything to do with you wanting to take out someone who could go toe to toe with you as mafia usually tries to leave that in the night kills though perhaps getting town to go after a good player did present an extra thrill.
This statement is scummy as hell (Note I don't have anything against the rest of his post so don't have anything to say on it). I don't really feel your follow up reasoning was much better:
Yeah it's only an issue when Pancake doesn't know where to go.
So you trust him? You like the way he's posting? Kind of seems like a split hair difference. "Similar" "Same."
That said, I think my biggest problem with your recent posts (particularly in handling the PCM one yes but overall), it seems like you are missing or ignoring a lot of details that normally you would notice. Also some of the people who did similar things as pancake or even worse got a slap on the wrist while you went after him. Perhaps you were tunneling and going into too far into it but your play today does not really seem like the play you've had in other games where I know you were town. Some of the elements are there but a lot of it just seems like it is for show.

@mtam, I really have no inclination to just up and sheep you when you have spent the majority of the game skimming and not really contributing, before you suddenly decide it is time for aog to die.

no the overall arching point was it didn't pcm was adding anything new at the time. the jokes, the late views on the game, not current with whats going on.
It has been done. It used to actually be the norm for lover pairings to be one town one scum, however this also usually meant the opposite alignment lover could win with his lover's alignment in certain end game scenarios if they were still alive.
Link to a game that has opposite alignments ? (i know the one i hosted did have one. ) I say this, because iirc most people being shocked that it was a possibility for opposite alignments, and had been more used to same alignments. (or the cupid version)
I don't really like how you say this like you figured it out yourself. Pancake mentioned he was doing this. Maybe you missed that fact when he said it earlier in the game but this just rubs me the wrong way. I don't really see as much fluff here as you do.

Pretty sure i'm not saying i "figured it out myself" or anything along those lines. The point was he had asked questions, that had been asked. and didn't help develop current theories that had been floating around. At the time i really felt pcm was just to disconnected to the game. Often a trait mafia show, since they don't really want to show interaction fo the game.
What im trying to say is we as the town, have discussed certain points all ready, and most of what he is saying is just repeating whats been said. i find that scummy.
Am i judging pcm different sure, that tends to happen. Some people are newer, some people are vets, some people you expect certain things etc.
Storr wrote:Feels like overreacting from Storr. He made a joke. Get over it.
As for the running theme in this game, i don't seem to get the jokes.... Hence why crasp is helping me out in that department, and now pcm is starting to use icons to help differentiate whats a joke, and a serious comment.He is questioning the situation, he questions virus, he questions streaker. These look to me of attempts at figuring out the situation and looking for a direction to proceed. Your case kind of ignored those aspects of PCM's post.
while i agree on these points, as to what he is doing. I still stand at the time, it seemed he wasn't developing the game.
This feels like you are holding PCM to a standard that you haven't established for everyone in the game. Don't know where he stands? At this point I would say it is fairly clear he stands anti-Ultra and there's enough evidence out there to say that he is unsure about some of what Streaker has been doing. Do we know everything about his position? No. I think that's true of a lot of the people in this game. So in conclusion, I think your conclusion is mostly bs.
Again, holding people to different standards isn't shocking or scummy. And to say he had a scum read on streaker at that time, or any indication that he wants to look at streaker for a lynch is reaching. He had a lot of content on ultra, that i felt had all ready been said. I wanted him to contribute something else since he was lacking imo.
So my analysis of your PCM post. I think you saw someone posting in a manner that you thought you could manipulate and trick town into thinking it was scummier than it actually was. I disagree with Pancake. I don't think it had anything to do with you wanting to take out someone who could go toe to toe with you as mafia usually tries to leave that in the night kills though perhaps getting town to go after a good player did present an extra thrill.
so what you just said is a staple of my style of play. Yes i do try and manipulate people / convince people of my views. this isn't shocking, new or surprising.
This statement is scummy as hell (Note I don't have anything against the rest of his post so don't have anything to say on it). I don't really feel your follow up reasoning was much better:
While the statement looks scummy, how about the actions of those trying to act on something like this i said? Yes i'm talking about dd5, and how people are wagoning on with out much reason. This is a far scummier thing to do, since its an action to force a claim. Rather than looking for someone that is scum. So while my curiosity is apparent, its clear i know its for the best to not out for now.
Yeah it's only an issue when Pancake doesn't know where to go.
Yes again, treating people differently in this game. I know its hard when you have a town read on someone, and you only give them a slap on the wrist, and when your scum suspect makes the same comment you throttle them.So you trust him? You like the way he's posting? Kind of seems like a split hair difference. "Similar" "Same."
The difference between dd5, and pcm isn't split hair, its much more different than you make it imo. PCM made a post, dd5 responded to it. The response was very similar to my conclusion on a previous pcm post. dd5 added new content to the game.
PCM post, had been for the majority, catching up to the game, and rehashing all ready said stuff.
As for if i trust him, its been addressed at this point, i'm leaning more on town for now though. At the time, i wasn't sure, i was just certain the comments are not similar.That said, I think my biggest problem with your recent posts (particularly in handling the PCM one yes but overall), it seems like you are missing or ignoring a lot of details that normally you would notice. Also some of the people who did similar things as pancake or even worse got a slap on the wrist while you went after him.

Really? seems that its more about me being manipulative (guilty) , me treating people differently (guilty). Idk maybe you should reread the last game you hosted, and check the pcm/storr fight. Fairly certain i ignored a lot of what pcm said that game, and harped on him up and down for it. (reads in particular)

Maxleod wrote:Not strike, he's the only one with a functioning brain.
My point was a. that you seemed to miss where Pancake had said it earlier and b. that it felt implied like you had figured it out saying things like "more proof..." etc.
And my point is you seem to be judging PCM the harshest out of everyone. Mtam who you seem to regard as a good player did not get as much attention as PCM and while I may have been more talkative than most, a case early on probably could have been made that I wasn't being very committed to actually scumhunting and that I was just pushing the bandwagon from the side line. It would have been wrong I would have rebutted it but I would like to hear why you never really said anything about it.
And we might have to agree to disagree. I thought questioning Virus was helpful, testing how committed he was to standing by Ultra's play. Streaker was another one. He had been one of the focus people earlier but kind of slipped a bit under the radar when the lover speculation started. You question people all the time, sometimes to never follow up. Why did you think PCM questioning Virus there was not helpful to the development of the game?
Really? I've seen you stretch a mole hill into a mountain but you did more than that here. You arranged your post in a way that to me looked like you were trying to prime a wrong reaction out of it. That is fishy to me.
That depends on your interpretation of the DD case. I would assume there is probably a scum on it whether DD is town or scum. The fact of the matter is though, DD's claim doesn't seem to match up with the flavor of other roles in the game. I know you don't like going by flavor but flavor in a claim that does not fit the game is a legitimate method of identifying a fake claim. As far as the people on that wagon, I would agree with Mtam right now that AoG has been very scummy and I am getting to the point where I expect him to flip scum regardless of what DD flips. As far as the Zivel statement, I am willing to accept that answer.
Be specific. Because his ideas really did seem to go off of yours, even a lot of the ones that you had expressly said and "you respond to things as if you hadn't seen the new information and then also respond to the new information on top of that. Makes you seem like you're adding stuff to make your posts very long so that people will just skim through" might as well have been a quote from you.
Yes. Because he was responding as he was writing as he has said. There's not really a case there. It's just your smoke screen to hide the fact that there isn't a case for you to make there.
But I was making the points about what you missed throughout the case? didn't you see the references? The people you ignored, the points that PCM brought up that you missed. I mean you have pretty much flat out ignored Hotshot this game who really hasn't contributed much and what he had before today was what you were basically accusing PCM of doing in saying stuff that had already been said and making even less conclusions out of it.
Now am I comfortable with the manipulative aspect? No. As I said, I thought your intro was pretty bad and I would even dare to say that you've been trying to manipulate people's reactions to this case (trivializing it by not even bothering to respond to it. Acting unworried about a case. Saying you'll put it off until tomorrow and then coming back and challenging someone to push you now like you wanted to answer it immediately to begin with).
