You're town this time I see. There was no exclamation last time.
Why can we safely off Wisp?
Yes, as in we won't be hitting town there.

He could be scum, there's no way to tell. This is standard Jedi play and pressure isn't going to change it. I'm surprised none of the xkcd players have pointed this out.

Catching up now.
Firstlyyyyy do you think anyone has been particularly negligent in staying silent about Jedi?

Secondlyyyyy ok why do you find my play bad

oh god 4 pgs, okay, more + and -

moody +
wisp +++
jedi
the worst +
morgan
seven ++
sabrar +
bessie +++
mathblade - (just voted without much other interesting commentary, this is a weak minus)

most people are posting things that are completely neutral to me except for the votes and of course i can't work out if they are voting town or scum because, y'know, nobody's flipped

bessie is my favourite player right now. very analytical. i trust her more than i trust myself. this trust will be re-eval d2

i also more generally trust seven who basically had scum immediately on starting Halloween

and wisp seems to know what they're doing.

i think those 3 are my main sheep candidates for the future, but i also don't think i will need to sheep today / have time to sheep today.

deadline is at 2am my local time so i won't be on. I will pop in about 5 hours before and update my vote if needed.

Vote manipulation will be made obvious with indicators. If the numbers don't match, it's probably a typo.

As has been indicated by the fact this morning's votals have been edited to show Seven actually does have a vote. I'll take off the tinfoil hat for now, but I'm keeping it within arm's reach.

Great, that game has 9,718 posts.
Thanks I’ll try to take a look at it later tonight.

I hosted the first game there but other users hosted a few other variant games in the same topic there later on, I believe I participated in most of them in some capacity
Thank you I will try to get to this too.

They are here, they are ignoring questions/requests, they show no desire to help.
Interesting. SuperJedi is unhelpful, but in your opinion, is it in a malicious way, and does that make SuperJedi scum? Why not vote MathBlade, who is the only other player on whom you actually have firm scum lean?

I vaguely remember playing one game with SuperJedi, but I don’t remember much about his gameplay but I feel it must have been about the same. Do you remember the game? He mentioned cards, but I checked and it's not Texas Hold'em.

moody7277 wrote: Sun Nov 21, 2021 11:33 pm That vote of SuperJedi by Sabrar already had me feeling a little queasy about him, which is not easy to do given my usual mindset on him, but Seven is bringing up some interesting data. If by some chance Jedi does flip scum if eliminated, I would be a lot more hostile about Sabrar. Not setting it in stone as a syllogism yet.
I have reservations about Sabrar, I FoS’d him in my second post. And I am suspicious of SuperJedi. But knowing what you do of Sabrar, do you really think Sabrar lets SuperJedi post the way he has this game?

Is it your opinion that I am positing a Sabrar-Jedi scum team? Because I can tell you that is not what I am thinking at all. I still think there is an even chance they could both be town.
How do you reconcile this post with your previous post?

crazy that Bessie understood my question, but it went over Moody's head
most people are posting things that are completely neutral to me except for the votes and of course i can't work out if they are voting town or scum because, y'know, nobody's flipped
ya this game is certainly on the lighter side for me, but I think you can trust that core of Bessie/Seven
though in terms of his read accuracy on me, its a bit lacking, so obviously don't trust that lol

@Moody
anyone two groupings of people can be town if want to decide to ignore logic
the question here isn't, "can Jedi be town", but rather, "Why shouldn't he die today?"

Seven's argument in regards to his meta is moot I think, funny, since nobody mentioned anything about moody's play here, until I somehow screwed up what alignment he was in Halloween mafia. Its not like Seven doesn't have a high percentage of hit or misses, with his playstyle, especially in terms of early game

I like his case on Sab though
and I think Vaimes is trending down for his response to Seven

I am probably not voting the Duck today

Just letting you know this is NAI. He does the same as scum. Here's an example. If anything, the fact that he didn't look to see moody's alignment shows that he wasn't really looking all that hard.

Only Sabrar, who is voting him.

I don't find your play bad, I find it underwhelming. Lacking in WIM. You're going after small targets when there's a giant Wisp in front of you.

You are correct it is Texas Hold'em. I haven't put it together yet.
[Yes I know, I really need to get back to that project. Remind me to do it this weekend I have Thursday and Friday off.]

btw MathBlade, are you actually questioning what Madge did as mod in the Halloween game, or are you just using a quote to ping her?
I am suggesting modge/wam seems like a weird solve for this game.
Can you explain this comment, I’m not following.

And what do you think of Wam?

However, you never did answer my question about Wam. What do you think of Wam? Town-lean or scum-lean? And why?

And I am anxiously awaiting your analysis of Page 8.

SuperJedi's name looked familiar so I checked Smashboards and couldn't find them. I had no recollection of playing with them on xkcd. If this is their standard playstyle then I'm not surprised my brain blocked it off.
Seven wrote: Sun Nov 21, 2021 11:16 pm So posting this right after shows an inconsistent mindset, and makes me think he doesn't actually care about the filler as he was trying to portray:
You don't understand the difference between the two fillers? One is looking like it's game-related content but is not moving us forward, other is oog chit-chat which we sometimes do.
Seven wrote: Sun Nov 21, 2021 11:16 pm She played with snark in her last game as scum. How is this different? Additionally, how is it different from Apex?
I'll take a look at Apex later. As I already explained I think scum!bessie would have directed a snark at a different target.
Seven wrote: Sun Nov 21, 2021 11:16 pm The bolded here doesn't feel right, especially given your bessie town read. It seems too premature.
I don't think so. I was able to identify an early scum-connection in Things I Like which could have been useful had I not died. Stating these before N1 is important.

I can't determine maliciousness and it doesn't make them scum necessarily. But they have a wagon, MathBlade does not and it's better for my power to vote them here.

Wrong thread. I meant to post that in scum chat.

Town reading me isn't going to make me change my read btw.

Also @Sabrar fair enough @everything honestly. My suspicions are more or less allayed.

I think they’re town but not because of what they’ve posted but because my PoE pool is pretty big already and nothing stands out enough beyond it to add themselves in it. So it’s more a “town because of others” than themselves.
