@ST

I'm glad you brought up "I win with town, if that makes me a townie...etc". Because on page 1, you wrote in response to that very line or discussion, ""being townie may very well be evil". So I have two questions for you ST. How did you forget that that conversation happened? I mean, you just quoted it and said, "I'm surprised nobody has brought this up". The second question is, well, WHY DID YOU SAY THAT BEING A TOWNIE MAY VERY WELL BE EVIL? Do you not even know your own alignment? If it's a misunderstanding, well, I don't know how to respond to that either.

And you also recently semi implied that I was a third party, commenting that SK or cult is not unlikely

However, I'm also suspicious of Vette for understanding that I'm a townie. But, then again I did say that I only have one vote, I win with town, and there's nothing complicated about my role at all. I'm not a townie-SK like Baal implied last round. THere is literally nothing beyond that.

1.)No, I did not forget the conversation. What I meant is that Niko Bellic is scum and Dimitri Rascalov (or whatever his name was) is town. It's a misunderstanding and I'm sorry, I worded that terribly.

2.)Of course I know my alignment, I'm pro-town. I read my PM after all.....

As for the third-party, yes, it's possible that there is a cult or SK. I'm asking you, why not? Does it seem that unlikely that in a GTA-themed game there is a serial killer or a cult? I did not imply that you have on of these roles, I just clarified that these roles my exist in this game.

when will people learn that talking about their own PM is a bad bad idea?

 

if there's cults it'd be krishna's in orange and squish well under the cars =) but that would be GTA 1 or 2 =D (maybe 4 too but I don't recall them there)

At least you recognize you are being stubborn. I'm trying hard to figure out your motive behind all this. I don't think it's the unknown aspects as you say because if that was really all you were after you would have just kept your mouth shut about it.

I'd say you're either scum who thinks he's in too deep to go back now or you're just fishing for reactions like you did last round with your Prof vote.

As I said a few times, it's more fun for me personally. I already know that as scum I can blend quite well, to the point that claiming I scan guilty was the reason I didn't make end game if not win at all despite having one partner make themselves the scummiest looking player since radish and the other partner disappearing and being modkilled. I've also shown that I have no issues of displaying a connection with a scummate, evidenced by quoting hatmoza linking myself and Gnizmo.

Point is I don't need to do it as an aid if I get unlucky(because I prefer town roles) and land scum, but it doesn't hurt either. Just playing the odds, I'm more likely to role town, and for that I am trying to hide what type of role I have. You say it shouldn't matter because there aren't really tells or they can be hidden, but you(among others) also correctly had me pegged for a power role my second game when I thought I was playing the same.

The reason I was vocal about it is because I wanted scum to know that they cannot read me day one when I'm town. I said it again in thread because there are players this round that very likely wouldn't have read the quicktopic where I said it was my intention. That's also for any of them that could be scum, but also for anyone that is town so that if I'm still around in future days they would understand why there may be a shift in my behavior.

I'm town that's probably in too deep. The reactions are great to gauge people's alignments, but I think it will be up to the other townies to make sense out of it all.

I'm starting to think you could be town but  there's still some points that don't sit well with me.

You say you're clever ever to fit in with the crowd if you land a scum role (I agree with you on this) but right after that you say not reading your PM helps you hide your possible power role and you bring up last game to support this idea because you were spotted as a power role.

That makes no sense since you caught my attention on Day Two because you defended ABC while he was doing his best to make himself look scummy. That was what pointed to you having some kind of information on ABC that explained your leaniency for his behavior.

I don't see how not reading your PM Day One could have changed that situation.


dude, you know that ABC is the mod, right?

Dude, you do know I was talking about last game right?


Whoops, nope, missed that :D

I already your question in a big-ass post at the beginning of the page. The towny thing, the reaction to Wonk's claim, couple of small things, you being so defensive now....

I want to be honest with you. I still suspect you, although not in the same amount as before. You really want to find out why I suspect you, and that's actually town behaviour. I got myself kinda into a dead end. You are definitely giving me scum vibes, but at the moment I can't seem to find arguments agianst you. That's why I removed my vote on you.

I'm tired, I need sleep. I'll deal with Zarx tomorrow.


I was already working on a post comlaining about how you ignore me, when you clearly are online and even posting in this thread, well just before I hit the send button I checked the thread so i don't get ninjad.

Also wonk is a stump!!! GOD DAMNIT A STUMP!

Thank you for answering my question anyway, I would have hoped for some quote of me that represents why I earned your distrust...

Also since you are so sceptical about asking if prof is a towny, do you think there might be a difference between asking if someone is scum or if someone is towny? If you do think there is then please explain it to me why you think there is one.

There IS a difference in my mind but I'll let Silver-Tiger answer since he's the one you asked the question to.


Well, I also explained that before, but here we go again.

When I'm town, I would ask: "are you scum?", since I try to find scum.

When I would be scum, I would rather ask: "are you a towny?" since as scum you know who your buddies are.

That's where the difference is: You try to find out who has a powerrole and who is a simple towny. As pro-town you couldn't care less who has powerroles (other than protecting them), since they're on your side.

Why are people making such a big deal about that post please explain?

I am personally not prepared to make a case against someone based on a presumption of how the mod would word someone else's PM (not everyone uses the same template for all roles), and additionally this is skating on thin ice as far as what is kosher metagaming IMO. 

But to break it down for you, Heph is figuring that if you say your PM says "you win when the town wins" then you're lying scum ... or something similar to that. 

Wildvine didn't see that, and I told him.  That's all. 

Ah, i see now


ok well FF basically gives you a way out (not everyone uses the same template for all roles) and your reaction is: "ah, I see now". To say that your lack of reaction is akin to a confession is an understatement  here.

"You basically said you were scum" "ah, I see now" ... good defense good defense...

Scum Vette

(keeping the vote on linkz for now)

No I never said I was scum,  you are assuming that I was refering to all my PMs including the one from this game as well,  But I was in fact refering to my past role PMs when I was town and theprof's current PM.  My lack of a reaction is to an overreaction of a very simple post taken out of context.   If you want to know what my alignment is all you have to so is ask,  it does specifically say which side I am in my Role PM.  Thats because it part of my role.

So Not Scum Vette,  overreaction on yours and everyone elses part on a simple comment.

i understand it sux to slip day one after being nightkilled night one... but in your despair there's a silver lining, your scumbuddy link will be preceeding you and you get to live till tomorrow's lynch at least ^^, plus he's usually very chatty in the dead thread so you won't feel laone like last time.

@ bolded, as i pointed out to ST, people should really learn not to speak of their own PMs.

look at link's post on this subject... there's a link to the mod's explanation of why what you said is a slip.



OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

I am. People want to lynch me based on a presumption of how the mod would handle my situation when the roleclaiming rules were written in thread. Meanwhile the mod said this:(in the sign-up thread) "If I did not denote your side, you are town. All non-towns I labebled in their pms." which I would take to indicate town roles didn't explicitly indicate such, and given that I can't see a win condition listed either.

It does border on thin ice as far as metagaming and so I don't really want to venture down that lane. But if I decide it's time for a nameclaim by the time I'm caught up, I'm certainly going to be looking for such. It's pretty clear to me at the moment that Vette, Heph, and/or prof slipped up. I can't imagine it was an elaborate trap set to see if I'd bite one way or the other and actually give my alignment away.

quoting for vette.

 

look at the "this" link
