Not any more than any normal wagon on D1. There being pissed off town votes on it actually strongly reduces the information. He truely doesnt care about the pressure Vash thing just because he skated to the endgame by lurking once upon a blue moon (we've all done that).
Also he blatantly kicked against the logic of it being a gambit to attract kills, saying he plays like this every game. Which is blatantly false, because all his games use different shades of playstyles. He has had plenty of games where he barely insults anyone, but just makes snide comments to show people his displeasure. This playstyle was done intentionally, and the mark is moving more towards scum wifom for me.
And before anyone asks: ND is a way more competent scum player than you guys currently imagine if he puts his mind to it. He is easily on Kgray's level.

It's working on you.Balki Bartokomous wrote: ↑Fri Nov 27, 2020 6:19 pmConcerning how?
Like, you think it means we are scum?
I see two possibilities: (1) Durga is town who did not recall the part of the OP that said how many scum there were, or (2) Durga is scum who purposefully wrote in the thread that she didn’t know how many scum there were in an effort to look like she must be town.
Do you agree that those are the two possibilities? That is — if she’s scum, she knows how many teammates she has for sure, right?
So, the key question is — do you think it’s plausible that Scum!Durga would post that she doesn’t know how many scum players there are in an effort to get people to think she is Town? I don’t see her doing that. I don’t see her thinking that would be an effective strategy to get town credit.
Would you respond to that?
She's also done it in many other games, as have others (like me). She's also definitely the type to actually not know how many scum there are if she is town. It's definitely NAI.
Re: M62: PEOPLE'S DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF REVOLUTIONARY MAFIA GAME THREAD!
Yawn I am going to take a nap. I don't really care. Lynch me or don't. I've contributed a lot to this game that someone can examine later down the line. Esp with Ghug/Durga. I'm just a VT, it hardly matters. Peace out.

Yes, I was exaggerating. I was trying to be funny. If I literally spent half my day giving energy to Bozo's post, I'd have a pissed-off employer.
It just seemed like an odd thing to emphasize. Possibly because you were trying to suggest to the thread “Hey thread, I’m really looking seriously at what people write and trying to puzzle solve,” which is what scum are trying to suggest to the thread. Only you picked a thing to emphasize that was a poor facsimile of actual puzzle solving.

You've now oozed town in 2/3 games I've played with you. You didn't last game.kgray wrote: ↑Fri Nov 27, 2020 6:20 pmI have guesses but I don't think they're right, since I couldn't figure out why I was so widely scumread last game (until ghug died, because I was super scummy that EOD).Vecna wrote: ↑Fri Nov 27, 2020 12:50 pmi dont see how you could townread the Kgray slot before, but have doubts now. She only recently started her towntelling process, but did so quite convincingly in a way ive never seen her play as scum (and this tell has worked every game since I discovered it).
Would be interesting to see if she has a clue what it is

Please tell us how using dark mode vs standard mode is alignment-indicative?
Enlighten us with your pulsating intellect. We are agog with anticipation at the pure white light of insight that you must surely be about to deliver.

Re: M62: PEOPLE'S DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF REVOLUTIONARY MAFIA GAME THREAD!
Maybe I already convinced you with my last post on the subject, but: I would scumread her if she knew how many scum there were. This fits with her town meta, so it's worth doing as either alignment.Balki Bartokomous wrote: ↑Fri Nov 27, 2020 6:30 pmCertainly capable. It’s not a difficult thing to fake. But do you think she would?ghug wrote: ↑Fri Nov 27, 2020 6:27 pmShe (and you, for that matter) is very capable of faking this confusion. It's NAI.Balki Bartokomous wrote: ↑Fri Nov 27, 2020 5:12 pm
Okay, pretty sure Durga is town. This is town confusion. And it feels authentic because when she said it, I felt like she was probably right that the opening post did not say how many scum there were.
Do you think Scum!Durga would expect that people would townread her for this? I doubt it.

Teacon, can you do that thing where you ignore this interaction and focus on getting some reads and calling out some bitches?teacon7 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 27, 2020 6:39 pm
Unless you're really getting into the flavor, I don't think people's politics are relevant to the game. I don't see how that's going to help make things more productive. It's just throwing fuel on the fire.
This dynamic will not end until each of you take individual owership of your own part in it.
@ND - Please don't antagonize durga. It makes everyone's life worse, and there's no conceivable kind of information you're going to get from pissing her off. Generating reactions is one thing, but we're all kinda expecting this situation to happen. Which means it's no longer a good rxn test, and just a pain in the butt. I don't want to play in that game.
Re: M62: PEOPLE'S DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF REVOLUTIONARY MAFIA GAME THREAD!
Hamilton seems so different to me this game. More confident, maybe? Are other people noticing this or is it just because it's the first time I've had to figure out his alignment?

Re: M62: PEOPLE'S DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF REVOLUTIONARY MAFIA GAME THREAD!
Yes. I do this too, FWIW. This could easily be a real towntell too, though. Flum has too much faith in people's willingness to read the setup.Jamiet99uk wrote: ↑Fri Nov 27, 2020 6:33 pm7.

Re: M62: PEOPLE'S DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF REVOLUTIONARY MAFIA GAME THREAD!
The contrary is he was using his entrance style as a means to say ‘hey, I am not scum because you could see that in the past when I was scum, I did this and I didn’t do that this time.’kgray wrote: ↑Fri Nov 27, 2020 6:49 pmYeah, there totally is a difference. Using a similar entrance doesn't affect the rest of his game at all. Limiting his posts might, or watching instead of pushing his own reads definitely would. But I don't see how you can think he can't be both trying to improve his hunting game and also sticking with a NAI comment he likes to make at the beginning of the game. I'm not saying that entrance makes him towny, I'm questioning why you think it's contrary to him trying to change.worcej wrote: ↑Fri Nov 27, 2020 4:22 pmIs there?
Because when I think people are making strong efforts to play entirely different, like limiting their post counts and trying to be as concise as possible and not engage in banter with other people as much as they have in the past, I don’t think their prior behaviors/posts should be mentioned on a way to towncred.
I don’t like how limited your assessment is on how hard Jamie is trying to change - go read the GT of last game, pretty sure I shoved his PMs into it.
If someone is actively trying to change their gameplay methods, making that statement is worthless and trying to buy town credit with a maxed out Visa.
Re: M62: PEOPLE'S DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF REVOLUTIONARY MAFIA GAME THREAD!
Why are you concerned about this vote specifically? He did post explaining it.
Re: M62: PEOPLE'S DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF REVOLUTIONARY MAFIA GAME THREAD!
Yeah I didn't know how many scum there were either, and everybody knows Durga doesn't read setups. This is dumb.Balki Bartokomous wrote: ↑Fri Nov 27, 2020 5:31 pmDo you really think that not knowing the number of scum on Day 1 in a game this size means you are “incredibly lazy town,” if town?
I am town. I did not recall how many scum there were or whether the opening post mentioned how many scum there were. How about you?
Re: M62: PEOPLE'S DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF REVOLUTIONARY MAFIA GAME THREAD!
Stop. Ffs make clear statements. Don’t be Damo. You know better.
