Jim:
IronyOwl, as Prince, do you tell people who to kill or do you let them figure it out on their own? How much command of the game do you take?
Not sure yet. In general, I think other people taking initiative is important for us to get reads on them, so I'm less inclined to try to order everyone to swarm someone I think is scummy or back off of someone I think isn't.


Toaster:
Irony:  Noted.  Do you expect people to follow your lead in attacks?
To some extent. Believing I'm town isn't the same as believing I'm correct, though.


Tiruin:
You quoted, but did not respond to, my questions. Why? Too difficult, figured you could go back and work out an answer for them later but then forgot?

Also, another thing occurred to me. You made the same mistake in your RVS question to Toony. If defending me was just a reaction test, what was asking Toony a question that didn't make sense?


Toony, how much weight do you feel an attack carries? Less than a lynch? More than a vote?


Deathsword:
Leafsnail: My answer to Tiruin sounded angry because I was angry at his crap (more below), but not at Toonyman. Thus the difference in tone.

Tiruin: First you attempt to defend the Prince (despite IO not being under attack and being called on it by Meph) to look loyal, then when others (Caz and myself) pointed that out, you deflected it by saying it was a "Reaction Test", which I claimed was BS. Then you made up some crap about me mentioning my survival and panicking, to I called you out on. You then proceeded to call me "jumpy" to once more deflect the attention from you.

You are scum, Tiruin. Attack Tiruin
Why was that one post enough to drive you into a frenzy? Why are you attacking Tiruin over preemptively defending me now when you hadn't mentioned that point in a while, instead focusing on defending yourself?

Also, why didn't you mention Tiruin's literal attack on you? Did that have nothing to do with your own assault, or did you just not want to mention it because it's scummy?


Caz:
What about Leafsnail's suggestion that all kills should be sanctioned by the prince to avoid scum involvement? What say you Lord IronyOwl?
See reply to Jim. It's not a bad idea in some ways, but I'd be concerned about the lack of actions to scumhunt off of.

Alright, seems like a fair strategy. Since we're running out of time and I don't want to action too near the deadline I'll be decisive.

I believe Deathsword to be a traitor. Attack Deathsword.

Toonyman attacked me, not Tiruin.

It's really a 1/4th of a lynch you could say (at this point).  I would consider anybody you attack you should be pretty confident in lynching though.  This will become easier once the first guard dies and we can get a confirmed alignment to work off of.

Jim

On 'random' killing, how would you best utilize your only tools [attack/defense - taking the same role said earlier] to find scum? Would you follow the Prince's order and tag along in the hopes they get Loyalists instead, or work on an inference on the number of probable allies you have before striking down your target?

I have no idea what the hell you're asking here.

Jim

I didn't ask you anything about that. Where'd you get the idea that I did?

I am a bit worried about your loyalty, Deathsword.

You don't say.

Better publicly declare that you're worried about traitors, because otherwise everyone would just assume that you were one.

You are playing this game very reactively, and seem agitated. Why not try scumhunting rather than trying to defend yourself and attacking the player that believes you to be a traitor?

You're right, he's not scumhunting. He hasn't even attacked a player he thought was a traitor or explained why.

I think your lazy bandwagon makes you more of a traitor than Deathsword is. Attack Caz.

Toonyman attacked me, not Tiruin.
Oops, my bad.

I'd still like to hear about the rest, though.

You are scum, Tiruin. Attack Tiruin
...Do you read my posts in a coherent way? I didn't make up crap in mentioning your survival and panicking. I asked you. The following dialogue fell into you going defensive. The defensive part, in the literal and literary sense, you did not point, I have to say.

On the first bolded part, you say it as if that was my intention when I already said it was a reaction test. Stop twisting my words. Second bolded part, it was logically concluded from your antics, and I believe that I can't deflect attention - everyone reads what is posted.



The situation I said about survival and panicking was related to the question I asked you hypothetically. You responded with aggression.

Let's follow the dotted line, shall we?

Unresolved? He put it in red?

I messed up my formatting there because I posted that at...a very very late hour in the night. Sorry for that.

> People's reactions are different no matter what exists, pertaining to what is posted.
> If someone clearly points a fact out, occasionally, people will repeat the point that needs to be taken in correction, parroting it in a way that follows what was originally pointed out first [ie, the 'expected' answer to a question]
> @2nd part: I wanted to see how his thinking pattern was in that type of situation.

Also, what do you think about roleclaiming early in game?


Dariush
Explain your suspicions and how you came up to them.
Nice job ignoring my post and my questions to you (#61).
It sounded more like an insult to me than a question - and if a question, a hypothetical one. But thanks for reminding me.

You didn't answer me either, though.

Caz
Tiruin: It's been stated that defending is reactionary. Are you pre-emptively defending the prince in an attempt to make you look better?
Reaction Testing. I did that to see how others would react if I stated such. My defense has not been used yet as of this moment.
This is utter bullshit. Which reaction did you expect, other than the inevitable accusation of trying to look towny and a question about you not reading the rules?

It was a poorly made concept, now that I see it. What was in my mind was the fact on differing reactions to a simple statement, and so I did such.



Caz

So you attack Deathsword because of the lack of time?

I'll restate, mostly because of me posting at a time inconvenient to my health  :-\

= Do you think using your attacks in conjunction with whoever the Prince attacks will be better than following your own leads? Putting in the knowledge that the Prince always listens to everyone.





If I have my timezone-tell skills right, we've got about ~29 hours and 40 minutes from this post until day end.

You seem to spend all your time defending yourself and trying to look town.

You quote my post explaining my reasoning then go on to mock my lack of reasoning? Ok then.


So you attack Deathsword because of the lack of time?

I'm attacking him now to avoid attacking him later and so that more people are likely to see it and be able to react before the day's end. Have you considered that the remaining non-actioning guards may be keeping their attacks ready to assassinate the prince at the last possible moment?

If I have my timezone-tell skills right, we've got about ~29 hours and 40 minutes from this post until day end.

I counted it to be 15 hours until the end of the turn. PST is (-8) right?

Got distracted and added your name by accident. Apologies.

Caz:

Weak answer. How am I looking town? Can you give any examples? And I guess you would love if I completely ignored any and all accusations against me, wouldn't you?

Tiruin: You asked a hipotetical question, which I answered. Then you somehow linked my answer to a hipotetical question to an outright confession from me. You did say exactly that your defend action at the start was a "Reaction Test". Which I still think is an excuse created to justify that slip.

While everyone does read each post (in theory), not everyone pays the same attention to each. By deflecting the attention you make sure the posts of someone else are examined in detail, while yours are not.

OMGUS... Yeah, because I totally didn't bring up a case on you more than once before attacking, unlike the two that attacked me.

Also: Your post formatting is hard to read.

IO: Turin tried to look Loyal, and when I called him on it, came the loads of fecal matter. I can't help but become angry at this. As to why I brought it up twice (before the post I am answering to, #76), it was because his crap about "me being worried about my survival" was new, while the "too town" part was weak by itself. When I made my first full case on him, I did include his "reaction test".

Can you please explain how @ bolded part. Next, explain how my formatting is hard to read. There are only THREE SPOILERS and paragraphs.

Also, it seems you're turning the notion of deflecting to another idea entirely, when the context was 'jumpy'.

Next, you outright accuse me in front of yon Prince as if I'M the one spouting crap? How quaint. Can you explain, in all your entirety, how, with quotes. Then compare. Then justify.

I did not link an 'outright' confession, if you can see how you worded your own posts, by the way.

While this may be a probability to be looked out for, I don't think every traitor would be sacrificing their RL time to stay up until the brink of the timer to do so. Seeing as we have eight people, they won't win even if they did such. 8-1[prince] = 7, roughly 3 traitors.

Can you sum up your defense then, so there will be no trivialities in the posting?

For me:
> Attitude shift to a defensive nature, as if provoked by simple questioning which leads on.
> Says that my statement [which I guess is this] is along the lines of an 'attack'; an interrogative statement does not seem like an attack to me. It could easily be answered by an explanation. Seems much more to be fearing for own life.
> Faulty logic. 'Says' link. Assuming we have roleflips [which I bet we do], and you turn up Loyalist//Town, then I'd be pretty stupid to have attacked you based on what you state, and in general, aye? I say nay.

You aren't, but you are trying to stress your innocence and place the blame on people who suspect you to be scum. Have you suspected anyone yet who hasn't already suspected you? Why are you so concerned that people attacking you must be scum?

Noted. Maybe it will be more applicable if the balance of power slips towards the traitors.

A little. I am more interested in his reactions to being attacked and in getting others to post something of substance so that I can get a read on them.

We have nine players, not counting the Prince would make eight guards.  Four of which should be traitors.  There shouldn't be a conniving heir from my understanding.
