I don't buy it. Ichi, you're having a bit of tunnel vision and finding everything he does scummy. Faust has played very pro-town this game. Do I need to pull quotes, or are you guys (XerxesPraelor, 2.71828....., and Ichimaru Gin) going to see the light and snap out of it?
Also, why aren't more people voting for pps?
What a joke. I haven't said or done much to find faust scummy in quite a while (pretty much this whole day).
Why don't you look at what I actually said and tell me what you think about him tunneling me all day for D1. His first post was literally to vote for me and he kept it up for the entire day.
Sure, go ahead and pull quotes. I'm sure faust has done some townie things, but what, there is not one thing in my post that you think is legitimate or could offer an opinion on? It's not like I make the best cases, but I have a problem with you choosing to ignore every single point as just "you have tunnel vision" which is an obviously untrue statement.
okay, I guess what I meant by tunnel vision isn't exactly what tunnel vision means. I meant that you seem to be contorting everything faust does into a scum narrative, ignoring the possible town narrative. I read what you said, and I guess now I'll respond to it since my last post obviously didn't work.
Early on, faust fights quite a bit with Ashersky. It feels a bit contrived.
Sorry. I know see that 6 wasn't a very good roll. I rolled only a couple dice, but 6 was the highest I had, and I had to play one.
So faust's assumption seems to not be taking a lot of things into account.
Also, how many dice did you roll exactly?
I'm back to vote: Ichimaru for now. The one thing we need to do is discourage bad dice rolls. And I think his reaction to being accused is scummy.
He pressures to to tell him how many dice I rolled, voting to add extra weight. He completely ignores my response and just says that he's feeling better about his vote on me.
#152 Asks me what I am afraid of, as if there are no PR's that can mess with dice or rolls. This feels kind of taunting. He also says it will help determine exactly how likely it is I am telling the truth. The logic here really fails because of course scum!me would just lie about how many dice I rolled.
#204 I kind of forgot just how much he twisted words in order to make me look scummy. Again, there is a huge difference between a statistic and an individual event. faust just seems like low roll = 100% scum here. Also, I expect this as exactly the sort of tactic that scum would take because it makes people focus on numbers rather than reads and interactions.
#392 He pressures mail-mi to roll. Exactly as would be expected by scum trying to weaken a town PR. He goes for more threats there too, basically saying people will die if they don't listen to him.
#488 So much WIFOM in this post. Basically shows how his mind is made up on me for evidence that is very thin and 100% WIFOM. Like coincidences don't happen or he never factors them into his reads. In light of how dice rolling works, this is pretty ludicrous.
Link to my first reread of faust http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=11174.msg393288#msg393288
#588 Damning evidence in my mind. faust thinks setting me up as a mislynch is still worth a shot and noticeably hedges on Voltaire in a very scum-partnerish way.
#657 Even better. This is the post I keep referencing where faust just drops my case and flips to Voltaire.The last posts from me just before faust posts this are as follows: A joke about lio's interaction with EFHW, interpreting WW's statement about people not making sense as directed to me, replying to PPS's irritation at me asking a clarifying question, posting some pretty obvious stuff about mail-mi's preferences to roll or not, me having a townread on WW.
This (technically #658 when he corrects a bolding mistake) was faust's last post of D1 before Ash hammered Voltaire.
Ok. Thinking about reading D2. I'll post this for now.
Also, I know my first reread of faust that I link to is flawed in some ways, but it still provides info on faust.
It's very easy to get in a fight with ashersky, as scum or town. Not contrived.
He makes a good point about rolling low. It is scummy. Volt was scum and played low. You didn't roll quite as low, but early D1, that's better evidence than anything else. Scum are absolutely more likely to play low numbers, and so it is indeed a good idea to discourage low rolling, so they don't do it.
Yeah, I don't really agree with some of his prying questions, but they aren't scummy. I've never seen scum actually rolefish. faust is genuinely trying to figure stuff out.
He doesn't twist what you said very much, what you said does sort of imply what he took it to mean.
I don't see the WIFOM in that post (488). There is never anything that is 100% WIFOM. You can't use WIFOM to turn something that would be a scum or town read into a null read. WIFOM weakens those reads. The reason it doesn't negate them entirely is because scum still has that lingering motive to do things like playing low. Scum can play high for towncred, but they still would rather play low more often, otherwise the towncred for playing high goes away.
You don't say anything about what you think about the posts that he makes. Ignoring your claim is fine because your claim of how many dice you rolled doesn't mean anything.
It seems faust can win with you. He suspects you, it's scummy. He backs off, it's scummy.
post 588 isn't written by faust and has nothing to do with faust, so I don't know what you are talking about.
Changing to voltaire seems townie to me, because I think there was still a good chance that he wouldn't be lynched. ww talked about this.
In addition, I find his clearing (essentially) of XP to very townie. He wouldn't do that as scum. Today he has been very helpful in finding more people likely to be town. Plus, it seems he has some sort of information/role for sure which is townie.
faust is easily my top townread besides myself.
