THE METAL - End: Dinner for Wolves

In this sense scum would be any anti-Town entity.

 

I will specify when I am talking about the wolves or Mafia.

 

I have to admit that my vote on AJ was just meant as a reaction test, and to get the game started. His initial post wasn't that scummy, but the reactions that I got with my vote are quite interesting. Like I said, it is odd that AJ didn't mention the wolves in his post where he asked who the scum was. There are three teams in this game and each have their own win condition and the means to achieve them. Now, I wouldn't have thought much of it if he had just brushed my vote away but he went on the defense and felt the need to explain his action, which I find pinging. I don't like how he suddenly got so serious after I my vote on him for his comment that was more meant as a joke than anything.

 

What I said is true. Scum = anti-town. It's ridiculous that this point is even getting pushed onto me like this. You seriously think I'm not aware of the set-up? 

 

Meh. I meant what I said, so take it or leave it.

 

I think Cloud's focus on the wolves is more interesting than anything. The fact that he's jumping so quickly to vote me for something like that leads me to believe he is one of two things. I won't really expound too much there though.

 

So you accuse me of being a wolf but you won't move your vote to me? Do you have any better scum read right now that is making you doubt who you should go for? A townie wouldn't hesitate so much with his votes.

 

Where did I say that you were a wolf? Stop putting words in my mouth. And cut the crap about what Townies would do... you read extremely forced right now.

 

 

Big METAL middle FOS.

 

Pral - I am okay with his vote. Cloud definitely went out on a limb though.

 

How can you be ok with Pral's vote on you and yet think I'm scum? Did you ever consider the possiblity of me just trying you out, and Pral seeing it as an easy opportunity to follow up with a vote of his own?

 

Again, never said you were scum.

 

 

 

 

What's the point in distinguishing between mafia and werewolves? Anti-town is scum. Period. Pretending this is a slip is LAME.

FOS Cloud

FOS Pral

 

In fact...

 

Vote: Cloud

 

Opportunistic much?

 

Yes, anti-town is scum. But, is that what Andrej meant originally?

 

As I said in my post, my problem with AJ  was not that he slipped but how he responded. This game is different than others because there are two teams that we have to hunt, not one. By force of habit, anyone can make a slip in the game - be it town, mafia or wolves. But, I felt AJ went into a defensive mode and going into a damage control mode, which is what made me suspicious of him.

 

 

Again, meh. You're reaching here. I stated pretty clearly that I would be more specific when it came to the two, but for the time being scum fits for all players anti-town until I can sort them out.

 

 

This is the second time you posted a "meh". For someone who wants to appear not to care much you sure are being very defensive over something that shouldn't have been taken that serious in the first place.

 

Don't try to downplay your opportunistic move now. This whole WoT is just gross... you can die. :smile:

 

The reason for his vote is plausible is what I meant.

 

Tina, way to sheep and also accuse me of buddying all at once.

 

You call Pral's reasoning plausible, and yet you FoS Tina for following it?

 

Saying 'I agree' is the simplest way to move onto a train. I've seen you say this yourself before so now that you're calling light to it to make me look bad here is just... baffling.

 

Responses are in the METAL bold.

 

I was still teetering on my idea for who you might be Cloud, but I think you've tipped the scales into the scum favor by pushing at me so hard on mostly baseless info.

- No, of course I don't think that you aren't aware of the set-up, but that's why it's called a slip. And like I have already said I didn't find your initial post that scummy, but the way you went on the defense over something that you could have easily brushed aside is making me think that I have struck a nerve.

 

 

Where did I say that you were a wolf? Stop putting words in my mouth. And cut the crap about what Townies would do... you read extremely forced right now.

 

- You said that you find my interest in wolves interesting, and then you FoSed me (which has now turned into a vote) so that makes me believe that you think I'm a wolf.

 

 


Again, never said you were scum.


 


- Fine, even if you didn't directly call me scum you did FoS me while you were OK with Pral's vote. This confirms to me that you find Pral's reasoning for his vote legit and that is only making you look worse in my eyes.

 

 

Don't try to downplay your opportunistic move now. This whole WoT is just gross... you can die.  :smile:

 

- Lol, and now you are calling MY move opportunistic? Give me a break. I kickstarted the game and voted for you with a reasoning that you would have easily dismissed if you were town. And yet you are OK with the person who was following up on my initial vote?

 

 

Saying 'I agree' is the simplest way to move onto a train. I've seen you say this yourself before so now that you're calling light to it to make me look bad here is just... baffling.

 

- I didn't get the feeling that Tina was sheeping her vote on an easy lynch which I would normally see as a scummy move.

 

 

I was still teetering on my idea for who you might be Cloud, but I think you've tipped the scales into the scum favor by pushing at me so hard on mostly baseless info.

 

Ah, finally a vote. I can't get much info from two pages worth of gameplay when the game has just started so forgive me for not making a more convincing case against you :rolleyes:

Posted

So let's give this a go.

 

Pretty quiet game until AJs scum 'slip'.

 

Cloud, Pralaya & Tina both seem to jump onto AJ pretty quickly.  Cloud for the initial slip, Pralaya for AJs reaction & Tina accusing AJ of buddying.  However, both Pralaya & cloud earlier tried to move the game away from spam and into scum-hunting, so their votes could be to get a reaction.  I also don't particularly like Yates reaction, at the moment this interchange is the most interesting thing to have happened so far (outside of Darthes opening scene anyway).  The initial 'slip' probably means nothing, but the reactions are interesting.

At the moment I'm more interested in Hallia & Kaylee, both of whom have posted since this discussion started but ignored it.

Now I just need to decide what I should think about it.

 

I also don't like this comment much

 

 

 

Show me where I said anything about which alignment you are. I said you could be one of two things... I'm still speculating based on your interest in the wolves. If you are what I hope you aren't, you're an idiot for blowing this wide open like you have.

@Cloud - :rolleyes:

 

You guys should just consolidate and lynch me or him. I don't know if I can seriously put up with him this game if this is how he's going to 'scumhunt'

 

@BFG - The quote is legit.

Cloud do you remember the last time you came out with an early case on D1? I do. You were lynched, flipped mafia, and basically doomed your team that game. Your case is bogus and you know it. I seriously hope people will see through this clownery and string you up.

I do remember that game and I also try my best to learn from my mistakes. You call my case bogus, and I admit that it's a bit loose but you also don't realize that I'm saying the same things Pral has been saying and yet you find his reasoning plausible and you don't find anything odd about his vote placement which would have normally caused more suspicion. You also didn't consider a reaction test which I find odd.

Let me break it down shotgun style for you here Cloud.

 

I never said you were a werewolf, nor do I think you are one. There are for the most part two people that are going to be searching for the wolves in this game. The seer and the mafia team. The seer for obvious reasons and the mafia because the wolves are IMO a bigger threat to them than town because the wolves can NK. Are you catching my drift yet? The fact that you so quickly jumped onto me with a case on wolves leads me to one of those two conclusions. Coupled now with how you continue to try pushing for my lynch I am getting serious mafia vibes from you.

 

Since you so strongly believe that I'm anti-town, which faction do you think I belong to? I'd actually like everyone voting me to answer that. Eventually we're going to have to differentiate between the two.

Posted

I didn't jump onto you with a case about wolves. I merely pointed out that you didn't mention any wolves in your post, and then voted for you. I wanted to get this game started one way or another. 

 

Answer this question: Why are you ok with Pral's case on you, and think I'm mafia while we have mostly been saying the same things?

Posted

Pral came across as more genuine to me in his posts. I'm not going to get into the debate of vote placement on trains, that's retarded. I don't care that he voted me after you did. Now that you're taking what he said and agreeing with them is just an easy way for you to justify the action in the first place.

 

By pointing out that I 'slipped' and didn't mention the wolves was an implication that I am a wolf. Therefore you were looking for these signs. Am I wrong with that train of thought?

Fair enough. I will probably get lynched right now, but your last couple of posts gave me a town fibe. I should probably stop with this aggressive early game playstyle. 

 

And no, you aren't wrong with thinking that, but I have already explained that my vote on you was just meant as a reaction test and as a way to get the game started.

 

 

Unvote

 

 

I have a headache after the two last pages now.

 

Sorry :/

Posted

I was just starting to think AJ was the anti-town between the two of you, and then you turn that 180? Hmmm. Would have preferred if you'd stayed your course and not backtracked;  now I'm uncomfortable with you again.

Now that I have some time I can add my thoughts to this...

 

Unfortunately I think the good metal movement has kind of came and seen it's day in America... but a lot of those bands (like Megadeth) opened the door for a lot of the stuff we see today.

 

Some of my favorite bands are Metallica, Pantera, Lamb of God, Black Label Society, etc. Pretty much if you can shred on the Axe then I will jam to it :tongue:

 

Anyway, I'll get back to game content.

 

unvote

 

So which of you is scum?

Nothing in this stood out to me. Felt like he was trying to get things started.

You forgot about the wolves already? I wonder why.

 

 

Vote AJ

 

Cloud stood out to me. (Yes I know he has since said it was for reactions). It made me wonder why he was so quick to mention that there are other teams. What reason would AJ have to distinguish at this point? Does it matter? If he felt someone was scum, meaning anti-town as most of us refer to it, then why need to differentiate? Both are a hindrance to town. Yes more so for wolves.

 

 

In this sense scum would be any anti-Town entity.

 

I will specify when I am talking about the wolves or Mafia.

I didn't read this as defensive but rather explaining himself more clearly.

 

 

Andrej, that seems a lot like "Damn, I slipped and I need to damage control" kind of reply.

 

I am not convinced that you considered both wolves and mafia as scum in your original post. If you had said that you mentioned scum by force of habit, it would have been more believable.

 

vote AJ

How should he have worded that then to show he meant both? I disagree that about his post being damage control. Felt more like someone explaining how there were misunderstood.

 

 

 

 

What's the point in distinguishing between mafia and werewolves? Anti-town is scum. Period. Pretending this is a slip is LAME.

I agree. I also find it interesting that he is okay with your vote. Looks like a way to try to win you over.

Bold: Incorrect, I was at work until recently. (I've been home for an hour but had to take care of some stuff). The exchange really didn't start happening until after I had posted and left lunch.

Cloud - is it emo posts like these that make you think AJ is town? Not buying it. After a few posts back and forth AJ can´t put up with Cloud, he also use words like retarded and idiot. He says he is willing to get lynched. This sound so fake emo and not townie at all.

 

Mish first don´t take a stand, just getting headache. Then after Cloud´s unvote she starts to think he might be scum. As others has already pointed out - we have two scum teams. Isn´t it possible that Cloud and AJ could be on each? Looks to me like Mish is looking at this from one of the teams.

 

Kaylee - if I agree with someone then I will just say so instead of trying to make it look like I have come up with some new ideas.

This sucks. The charger to my laptop is messed up I just found out, and my laptop's almost dead. So yeah, I might be confined to my phone for a bit unless I can get the charger to work.

 

Either way, this is kind of an easy choice for me. Unvote, Vote Cloud.

 

If you're going to act like an initial fos on someone was a trap or to kick start the game, don't pull the ol "oh man, maybe I really was onto something!" routine and keep trying to case the dude you fos'd. The original for was weak, scum means any antitown role so there was no slip imo. Except for a bit of possible AtE in some of his recent posts, AJ's responses to this whole thing seem fine to me.

 

But Cloud acting all upset that AJ isn't more suspicious of Pray and not just him reeks like hell. He's tried diverting focus to Pray multiple times. Then the whole Unvote rolled together with the "y'all will lynch me now anyways :sad:" AtE was just as obvious of scum backpedaling as you can get. Not to mention that Cloud seemed to try ducking AJ's question about whether Cloud thought him mafia or werewolf. A veritable orgy of evidence, as it were.

 

Also thought BFG could have been possibly trying to cover for a teammate, the way he tried diverting attention to Kay and Hallia for no apparent reason. If Cloud flips scum I'd bet BFG is his teammate.

 

Prob more I wanted to comment on but oh well, I'll try and fix my charger.

I don't see much use in pushing for a lynch I don't believe in anymore. I don't play like this to get a person lynched without figuring out if he is town or mafia; I was trying to pressure him to get a better feel for his game.

His emo posts were part of my reason to unvote because I don't associate such posts with AJ's usual playstyle, but more importantly I liked his recent posts and and the way he defended himself. His posts make sense.

 

You have an interesting point about Mish not appearing to take the two scum teams into consideration. I also get the feeling that she is just watching from the sidelines, but she tends to sit on the fence a lot this early in the game so it isn't very telling imo.

What use would a trap have if you don't follow up onto it with more pressure? I admit that my case was a bit loose but you can't really expect a bulletproof case right at the start of the game. I questioned AJ on every point that stood out to me, and the way he defended himself makes me believe that he is town. I'm aware that the initial FoS was weak; I already explained that I didn't find his post scummy but I voted for him anyway to see how he would react, and to get the game started. His reaction that followed was what I found pinging. I wasn't trying to divert the attention to Pral, because if I wanted to do that then I would have stopped going after AJ. Him being OK with Pral's vote, but not with mine was one of the main points of my case against him. He also didn't vote for me while thinking I was a wolf, but he has already disproven this point. I wasn't backpadeling; My reads on him only changed after our argument. Should I have kept pushing for his lynch instead while thinking I would kill a townie? I have also already explained that I thought he was a wolf.

No, you shouldn't. I like that you're open minded enough to be willing to back down when you're shown something that leads you to believe otherwise. I've seen a few people who go after people and won't let go no matter what the person says

I don't like you trying to link me with Cloud.  I was commenting that I thought it interesting that a couple of players had posted while this was developing but they hadn't commented on it.  

 

And also, I'm a she.

I think this is right:

 

Unofficial VC

 

AJ (2) - Laya, Tina

Cloud (3) - Yates, AJ, Des

Tina - Kaylee

 

Does anyone know when the current deadline is?
