Mormota:1, I didn't. Mimicking it would require me not to provide a reason for it. I did.
Or it'd require you to provide an excuse to cover for your mimicking.
For instance, you specifically mentioned that your questions to Shakerag were "still unanswered" and implied he'd need an excuse for that. Yet, the difference between your asking the questions and voting him over them was just a pinch over the time between asking those questions and your previous post. What about that time difference seemed lurky or suspicious for Shakerag, but not yourself?
That would also mean that you were asking him when he was going to start scumhunting, but that your only other scumhunting was a single "Huh? What's this?" question to Shakerag. Doesn't that seem a bit hypocritical to you?
2, You could try using your brain. Let me help: To get Powder Miner talking about SOMETHING [Both bold and capital, because... FFFFFFFF!] other than you, and allow us to get reads on him.
So you had nothing else you could/wanted to ask him about? Did you think this might encourage him to post relevant things somehow, or did you feel his response might be useful in itself?
Also, on D1 you said mipe9 was more arrogant than scum, but FoS'd him later on. What made you change your mind?
Similar question in reverse with Powder Miner on D2: What made him go from scum to arrogant noob?
Mormota: What do you hope to get out of this game? If you could pick one of the four possible power roles (Cop, Doctor, Godfather, or Roleblocker), which would you pick? Why?
Probably Godfather. The ability to stay hidden from town is invaluable, and I don't think I'm experienced enough to take any other role.
"Is", not "would be?"
I laughed. But other than that.. What? I was talking in this peculiar language called English, and that is how that's grammatically correct. I think.
I believe the idea is this:
"Is" means that it is currently so. "Would be" implies that it would be true given a certain set of circumstances. So answering this question like that implies that you were thinking "Well I'm scum, so hiding from town is invaluable, so I'll say hiding from town is invaluable," rather than "Well I'm town, but if I was scum hiding from town would be invaluable, so I'll say hiding from town would be invaluable." In other words, it implies you weren't thinking of the town/scum situation hypothetically.
I have shown that the logic behind your arguments was wrong. If you are still voting me, that is not out of logic, but on a gut feeling. Do you believe that is good?
Interesting. So you believe Urist to be town following his gut, and not scum pushing for a mislynch? Why's that, Mormota?
Zrk2:Overall, after reviewing the entire thread, I feel that Powder Miner is scum.
This seems kind of lackluster.
First, you say you're going to do an in-depth analysis of everyone's posts today.
Then, you go through and say "Nice, not so good, nothing really here, nice, really nice, nice." You don't even explicitly state your opinion all that often, and your most in-depth explanation was probably "I like this, looks at others and still pushes on his main suspicion."
Then you vote on what appears to be "this was least impressive" style reasoning, without bothering with much else. You at least ask Urist some questions (though probably hard-to-see ones, due to quote SNAFUs), but that's pretty much it.
Care to explain all this? At the time, I know you've been attempting to correct it.
If you are town and you think someone is scum, lay on and don't back down. If you think he is scum overcome the opposition by proving that he is scum. Backing off like this to avoid questioning is a major scumtell in my eyes because yo are trying to avoid being questioned. This is LYLO, everyone will be questioned. Deal with it.
Now, explain why number of posts is a scumtell. Explain why you thought Irony was not scumhunting when he was. Explain why you backed down at the first sign of trouble. Explain why we shouldn't kill you. Now.
This is better, but it still feels like you're going after easy targets.
To everyone: I apologize for fucking up the format on that post so seriously. If you endeavoured to quote any section of it, I say double-sorry. Looks like that hour of my life was pretty much for not.
It was better than nothing, but I don't see the in-depth analysis part. You want to try re-giving your opinions on everyone you've analyzed?
Anyone who hasn't voted; who are your scumpicks? Why? Examples?
Mormota and you. Powder I still think is thrashing town (mainly due to gut and doesn't-have-an-IC-syndrome), Urist has seemed townlike for the most part. I was suspicious of ed boy and you've been continuing that a bit, what with going for the easiest target and delivering somewhat lackluster results. Mormota's had kind of a history of subtly following others' suspicions/votes, and hasn't had any serious suspicions all game.
