Sure, I was just responding to Q's question on Gaz. Ichabod's final Uberfish vote was just an experiment related to the double vote, though.

Only one night kill and nobody is raising an eyebrow.

I suspect Uberfish based on some tone reading, and for making a bad case against me. His case against Gazglum didn't really do it for me, either. So I think he could be a superwolf, working hard on his fake scum hunting. He was happy to include the 1-1-1 argument in his case against me, which isn't his style, as Lewwyn pointed out. He also made a huge deal out of the timing of my QT reveal, even though I think I've explained that very adequately. It feels like he was pushing just for the sake of pushing at the end of the day.
If you know what I mean.

I didn't state you were my top two suspects (and you aren't...) I was just finding the lack distinctive.
And asking about gazglum is just a way to get you taking about something in particular as otherwise it might be hard to know what to comment on, especially given that you may not have thought about the game much.

I think it's a good case for only one scum team, especially if we believe lewwyn.

Zak, that uberfish case resonates with me. I notice that both rowain and ichabod were pushing uberfish

Seriously pind? Rowain's self preservation argument wasn't really convincing anyone else (neither was mine against you I guess.) Ichabod said clearly that his vote on me was for the purposes of testing what was going on with the double vote. he was voting with me against gazglum and zak, so clearly he didn't think I was scum.

The question is, is Pind trying to deflect attention from someone else with this attempt to pin the night kills on me?

Zak's case on me is total crap, so apparently he can accuse me based on "tone" and I can't accuse Gazglum based on early game style difference? LOL. I've already explained my stance on 1:1:1 very clearly. And zak is turning something I originally just mentioned into a "huge deal". I don't even understand why anyone would think it's "not my style" to consider meta. I mean, I've designed quite a few games, it's very natural for me to consider whether a setup element would have made sense, in fact I've lynched someone almost purely for claiming a role that didn't make sense before (IIRC it was merovech, who fakeclaimed in that marathon length game.)

Oh and BTW zak says that he was sitting back on day 2 but not day 1. My opinion is that he was sitting back on day 1 too. Just lots of "X what do you think of Y?" "No followup." "I agree with Z for no reason." "I dislike W for no reason." Zak's obviously going to argue but you can just go back and read his posts, that's most of what he does day 1.

There is a bit of meta in favour of Q: the doublevoter is almost certainly scum for not aligning his public and private votes, so it's more likely that town has the 0.1 tiebreak to balance things out. And I haven't picked up much of a scummy vibe from Q's posts. I do expect him (and jkaen) to contribute more today though.

I found this sequence of posts from the day 2 quicktopic a bit... odd.

Lewwyn's response really makes me think village. Look at him describe his targeting of Azza: because he thinks he's village? He's not a common vig, he's something else, to have targeted Azza because he thought the guy was village...

62
BRickAstley
What? Why are you still talking about him? We already covered all the Lewwyn bases, and now it just sounds to me like you're desperate to get me off voting him. Maybe you're in league together...

63
pindicator
He got me wondering if I had misread my role PM.

I'm thinking about voting for slowcheetah. His day one vote on Azza doesn't sit well with me, and then seeing Azza defend him in the QT makes me wonder. It's more often than not when a villager is targeted by someone they think that the person suspecting them is a wolf. But Azza defends SC when SC's attack was very weak. I think if Zak passes muster on my morning read then I'll likely vote SC.

64
BRickAstley
That sounds forced like you're desperate to move on and I'm not buying it. Of course there's no reason to try and flesh it out today because you're my translator

65
pindicator
Are you referring to me talking with Lewwyn or Uberfish? I don't mind answering questions about my ability

Regardless I just caught up from what happened overnight, and I plan on switching to slowcheetah. It is getting annoying that the people I vote for today end up posting thoughts that mirror my own. So I am willing to give zak a chance. But I see people are voting zak as well as slowcheetah, so I want to see if that continues before I vote SC.

If you have any last posts please get them up an hour before deadline. It's kind of spotty to translate from work.

pindicator
I also don't like how slowcheetah has disappeared today

BRickAstley
Uber fish? I'm talking about how you seem to have a Lewwyn association and now that I mentioned it you're shrugging it off like its no big deal. Like you just don't want me to think about that possibility and focus on other targets while I stay picture bound where you can kill me before I get the ability to talk again.

68
pindicator
I don't get where you see a Lewwyn association. I'm thinking the opposite. I'm worried that the guy who classically mislynches me in LYLO has an ability that will apparently kill me because i'm a lost soul and it kills undead things. I'd put the odds of me dying to Lewwyn's ability at over 50%. Because if both of us live long enough he's going to think "Eh, maybe Pin is finally duping me" and kill me with it which is what he argues every time he mislynches me. So if you see me buddying up to him in game, it's because I'm pretty certain he's going to kill me.

69
BRickAstley
The Lewwyn association comes where you've stated over and over again in this thread about how he's shown his villagerness or that he must be innocent and so on, I wouldn't think of it if you weren't keeping on trying to assert the same thing over and over again.

Ok, I see where you're coming from (I re-read a bit). I'm trying to remember what prompted me to write that, and I don't remember. I probably was just posting my thoughts after something in the main thread. Thinking out loud because I'm not in love with any one person as scum.

Mostly I agree with BRick's reactions here that Pindicator's focus on Lewwyn seems odd, and that it could appear that Pindicator's just trying to shake off BRick's question. But I also find it a bit strange how quickly BRick goes from a "strong town read" on Pindicator to cross-interrogation mode.

I guess I'd just like to hear other people's take on this.
I have to run.

Well, I had a similar thought that Brick could be overdoing the "paranoia" in the QT. In fact, I believe he hinted at that passage up front, before the QT was even posted, which might speak of a guilty conscience of sorts (i.e. knowing there was something there that might look a bit suspect). I also thought it was a little bit odd that he "gave permission" for Pindicator to post the QT - it's not like Pindicator needed his permission. smile So he was kind of going out of his way to be cooperative, there. Finally, I had a random thought earlier that it's a bit strange that he doesn't know the exact sanity threshold for his post restriction. I don't really see why his PM wouldn't just state that explicitly. That's very minor, though. But overall, I do think he's a lynch to consider.

Also related - I do think Pindicator gave a pretty solid explanation for his Lewwyn fixation.

Ok, reading it again before submitting, post 62 there really does stand out. Post 61 looks like a pretty natural comment to make on Lewwyn, I think. I remember having the same thought when reading Lewwyn's post - who justifies his vig kill with "he looked like a villager"? smile It made me chuckle. So post 62 looks like an overreaction. And if those were his genuine thoughts - why just blurt them out like that?

I'll sleep on it, but it does look suspicious.
If you know what I mean.

Sanity 13? Definitely eye-twitch time. Maybe even muttering under the breath.

In the night phase Kevin Rudd also lynched Julia Gillard, so I'm a bit distracted at the moment. (Australian political turmoil).

I need to reread and think. One point - I'm a little suprised that Brick still apparently has his post restriction Sanity 13. We've had 4 townies killed vs 1 ghoul, who may or may not have counted as a full scum. That's...not a great ratio. But even in an underperforming village, Brick still hasn't reached his freedom limit on Day 3 (meaning, that if we had got a wolf, he would likely still be restricted on Day 4). That's a harsh restriction. And the context (Brick can post MORE sanely as the town gets LESS sane) reminds me a little of Azza's faked PR when he was a Minecraft monster, who claimed he could only be active during the day, even though Minecraft monsters are out at night. It runs counter to what you might expect.

You're putting a bit of emphasis on the double vote being scummy Uber, though I agree it is interesting.

I also think that you are ballsy enough to have put the first double vote on yourself. You were on at deadline Day 1 and had 2 minutes to see that the bandwagon was sliding away from you onto MJW. You had time to see Pindicator get you out of danger, and then fire a one-word PM to Serdoa.

Second day you attacked Zak hard after the QT reveal, and have continued today. If you are a wolf then I can see you setting up a 2-day campaign against Zak, while using the double vote to help ensure that Zak stays around another day (and potentially getting rid of a rival scum faction, if you thought Slow really might be a ghoul).

It would then be in your interest to talk up the scumminess of the vote, to gain indirect town cred.

It's a bit tinfoil, but hey, sanity is 13. I'd be interested in hearing who else you suspect of having the power.

I actually agree with parts of this argument. I made some of them myself. But I still think you are scum zak.

Who do you suspect beyond uberfish? I think my biggest issue is that you have been A) focused on slowcheetah for two days, B) not particularly discussed a bunch of other suspects except to say by process of elimination you've ruled them out and C) jumped on the MJW wagon with ease instead of staying with slowcheetah.

Day 1 I was on slowcheetah. In fact 3 people were. If you really suspected him why not push that more at the end of day 1? Or we're you saving his mislynch for the next day and jumped at the opportunity to knock off someone else in the chaos?
