No, its not circular reading. Wagon composition is a great indicator as to the alignment of the person being wagoned.

Still willing to kill Manasi

 

So justify it. Tell me why I'm a wolf other than that Silver thought so.

 

You pointed to townreads /and yourself/ being on the wagon as a good indicator that it’s a hit.

“I’m now going to determine this person is mafia. Town on their wagon is a good sign that they’re mafia. I’m already on the wagon and I’m town so this person is more likely to be mafia”

That’s like the definition of circular reasoning. You’re starting with an implicit question and your reasoning invokes something that already answers it.

 

No. If the wagon was only myself then it would be. Because I town read the full wagon including myself, that indicates it is a wagon with multiple town on it that is not gaining traction. Aka, indicative of scum.

I don't need to tell a wolf why they're a wolf. I can't convince you to vote you.

 

Like maybe circular isn’t the exact right word for it but it’s certainly /bad/ reasoning.

If you’re gonna walk into someone else’s house and start calling the artwork on the walls tacky, you’d better come correct with that yourself, is my point.

 

Argument from analogy is a fallacy.

Let's try this again. I know I'm town. Two of my top town reads are voting with me. Therefore, it is very likely in my eyes 3 town votes are on Dels. The wagon is not gaining traction despite that fact, so either scum are choosing to whiteknight instead or they're protecting their partner.

Circular my ass.

 

Tell me then.

 

Tell me why he's town.

Posting a lot of words is something any competent player can do and is not town indicative, so point to any thought process he's had that is overtly townie. Because despite his "content" being plentiful, I don't town read any of it.

 

That's not why I think he's town. I posted my reasoning somewhere back 200? posts. I would get it, but I'm phone posting from work.

 

Ouch, the quotation marks. I am wounded.

Here, Muzjik.

WitchHunt 9

This is where Fonti explained why she was townreading me.

What do you think of it?

 

I think it exemplifies the issue behind the concept that casing is somehow how to scumhunt best.

My non shithead reply it that its eh. Discredited by the fact he followed that case up by a vote on town.

Dels, you are from MU, so you have to realize casing is not the only nor really the best strategy. So compare site culture from here to MU for me in context of the game. I'm a mix of stunned and lost at how much the focus is on wallposts here.

 

Man, you think this game has had wallposts? This has been light.

 

I actually don't disagree with that, but here everything has been "case this" "iso that".

 

I mean do I look like I'm casing? lol. Half my posts are just "Yeah this person feels okay, idk, not sure, guess I'll vote here, not sure why"

 

What, in your view, is the best strategy?

 

But Fonti wasn't making a case anyway, she was asked her reasons for trusting someone so of course she had to put together the posts and explain. "Casing" just means explaining why you see things the way you do and why others should listen. It's pretty important imo

 

Oh, honestly.

Fine, let's do it your way. I think everything Del's posts feels genuine. I also think you are trying to dodge out of giving any reason for your vote, even though you should be trying to convince people to vote with you.

Your turn.

 

I mean I would really just like a reason why I'm the most likely to be scum out of everyone else, disregarding who has voted me. If a stranger came up to you and said "I don't get it, Dels posts look okay to me, how do you know they are a wolf?" what would you say?

 

Hey Dels, when you were asking if it was ok to talk about qt things wrt muzjik, did you notice what I thought you noticed.

A yes, no or maybe will suffice.

 

That could have been much worse
