The only way you'd know that, is if you're SCUM!

Have you given your thoughts on Banana vs Supa yet?
That's taken a bit of a backseat to both Banana and Greyparrot suggesting that their role kills if they're hammered, then changing their minds.

Greyparrots answer seems to be that anyone who questions him on it is a bitch and committing OMGUS to push for said answer.

Still awaiting Banana's answer (in fairness, I initially tagged the wrong Banana). 

...

I find Banana's killing role to not be much of a counterclaim to a vig.

I also find two characters being about Israel to be odd, even more without any commentary from them on it (Banana and Savant), which means their CC is backed by less credibility than normal CCs are.

If lynching either Vader or Banana, I'd go with Banana. I also don't see much point in not powering Vader up (better to test that his role indeed retains the killing power as claimed, than to test if he fails to make a kill when not empowered).

I haven't yet gone digging for Wylted's previous statements on Incels, but I'll get that knocked out tonight.

That explanation makes sense. However, it doesn't reduce tracking information on a dashboard to equal someone being a bitch; nor does it explain what the crab God mechanics actually were. You're reflecting with insults rather than answering a really basic question; that combined with an inconsistent story on what powers your role has/had, have me worried.

The mod gave me some vague description of the crab god, in that my role was passive, I could move side to side, but nobody leaves he bucket.
More details please. What does moving side to side mean? Like dodging night actions, or switching factions?

Small note, I think the role I refer to as bomb is actually Super Saint (kills whomever hammered them, like in Good Omens when the town burnt an actual witch... Ok, so that destroyed the town, but you get the idea). Assuming Banana is soft claiming this, because as a normal town killing role, why even CC Vader instead of just kill him tomorrow night?

Honestly, why Vader wasn’t roleblocked is a good question to ask.
Assuming he's town, scum may not have suspected he was on to any of them.

Caught up on reading, but in bed on my cellphone so not going to try to update the dashboard.

I trust Vader more than Banana right now, but I need to re-read a post  from Wylted about Incels to ensure they gel (want to say a couple months ago?). Black pill equals death makes sense for most, but Wylted has a different opinion on black pills and Incels in general; but I am not sure paying for sex matches death. Again, I need to hunt town his prior statement on this topic to ensure consistency.

That said I don’t think Vader would be role confirmed if we don’t vote him and only one NK occurs. With how many players there are mafia could have been given a single bonus kill (as one possibility, buttered are others). That said, consistent bonus kills from mafia seems unlikely, so I’d be in favor of continuing to trigger his powers.

fYI, I assumed his power was detecting how many scum were on his wagon.

Oh Banana implied being a bomb, I think someone else already did that previously and there was no counterclaim.

I'm going to flame a Retro Hoc fallacy for the above!

Look at it, Wylted posts a vote count with no whiteflame vote, then another with whiteflame voting, and whiteflame THEN adds himself. One or both of them is an evil time traveling wizard! (and yes, I see this crap enough that I made a page on it)

...

Anyways, in the interest of not dragging things out when the outcome is a forgone conclusion, 

VTL Earth (not specifically the player, more of the planet; but I suppose when Wylted destroys the earth it'll destroy him too)

Updating for the soft claims my VTL on Owen stirred, in addition to other new info.

Player            Character          Role/Notes
Vader            Non religious    Confirmable w/ 3 votes (savant, Pie, Owen… Lunatic)  <<< Could be fake, but really not worth wasting time on until later rounds. I also like them catching behavioral oddities between Casey, Pie,  and Mharman (#186), probably nothing, but a good sign that they're looking for behavior which doesn't quite grok.
Banana  Hamas vs. Israel  14 message long role         <<< This doesn't guarantee town, but pushing against it is a red flag to me. Mine was only two, but the second one was a journal entry, I suspect it's much the same for everyone else. A journal entry from Wylted could indeed be crazy long.
Whiteflame ???                        ???              <<< High quality reads, no seeming artificial pushes. Cast doubt on the Banana push with the likelihood of scum roles being posted on discord thus not 14 separate messages (I know there's still a character limit, but if memory serves much less of one).

Earth           Can't live without doing evil... Evil Cookie Giver third party  <<< Third party, so default lynch target unless we find another. That said, I care more about fun than victory, so I'm fine with letting his evil cookies play out (not that it'll happen).
Savant            Non religious               ???  <<< In play, no significant thoughts.
Casey               Religious                     Diary mostly useless. Potentially chaotic role     <<< One note I will say, is their interaction with Pie doesn't feel at all staged (in summary #217), so if either flips scum, I assume the other is safe.
Mharman       Non religious                ???        <<< In play, no significant thoughts.
Joebob           ???                                     ???     <<< AFK?
Austin              ???           Confirmable   <<< I know I've made jokes with some of you about "confirmable" roles. People either don't know what that means, and/or they just say they're confirmable DP1 to decrease the odds of being lynched.
Barney            Religious Camera Toilet                       <<< is self, so my opinions are biased (but to play to my meta, he's obviously scum!). I did however share good information that what we voted for probably has nothing to do with what role we got (#104).
Owen               Transgenders   Vanilla w/ powerups                 <<< Fast to town read white flame. Probably nothing, but it's come up. Also regarding #218, yes, that's how OMGUS works 😁

Lunatic                                                               <<< Voted Vader after confirm condition reached, so slight distrust, but also an easy legit mistake. Also sewed distrust of Banana's PM (#48#88).
Greyparrot carcinization   Crab God   bomb? <<< If memory serves, he always shares his role first thing, so hard to tell anything by it. As for the bomb joke, I don't leap to conclusions about statements like that as being serious or even misdirection instead of simple dismissal. ... Seemed to vote for Banana out of nowhere, so leaning scum for acting opportunistically.
Pie                    ???        Has info              <<< Latched onto the Banana must be scum thing, well after whiteflame's analysis of why 14 messages implied town (#141); they do however do a good job defending their doubt (#206).

@Mharman
I don't trust is Barney's reads. If he's thinking of 3p why not Greyparrot? I don't fully trust GP's claim here bc a Crab God that whose character is carcinization (the process of turning species into crabs) sounds like a recruiting role (cultist) if it's 3P. Could a different townie that I wont talk about but I don't get why Barney is thinking Owen of all people is some third party. Even based on Owen's role, why not apply the logic to Vader?
As I stated of GP "Seemed to vote for Banana out of nowhere, so leaning scum for acting opportunistically."

And I was crystal clear on my reason for VTLing Owen. That I didn't have outsider knowledge that non-religious characters were common (GP being a crab GOD seems religious to me), meant Owen was a significant outlier. Also I did not accuse him of being third party. That I threw out a guess about their involvement in the same long post but on a different paragraph, doesn't mean the two things on connected.

Islam is best.
The core problem with Islam is a non-falsifiable one: how do we separate true Muslims from persona trolls pretending to be Muslim to degrade Islam?

Example, pedophile politicians in Iraq want to marry pre-teen girls in the name of Mohammad (who apparently wasn’t a pedo because he was too sexy… actual argument from a claimed Muslim on this site). Are they doing it for the benefit of their religion, or is it because they’re pedos?

By the way, regarding “Barney literally got away with scum slipping and laid low.” if it’s the game I think it was, it was a rare time where I used inactivity as a tool (I can’t recall who my partner was, but they advised it AFTER pressure was on me, until I could be replaced for genuinely being too busy).

My main scum tell is trying too hard. Which I’ve gotten better at hiding, but is still my main scum weakness.

That said, I do independently concur that the push on Banana feels opportunistic rather than genuine (but town can want to lynch someone as a policy).

My girlfriend is visiting from Canada this weekend, which is contributing to a lower actively level.

Not that it overly matters DP1. I suck at DP1.

I usually focus on keeping an up to date dashboard to benefit everyone, and while I’ve read most of the posts, I am not putting the needed time in for tracking all claims and their post links (also not spotting any big ones, just spitballing).

Because I cannot fathom a townie not doing the most basic and easy thing they can do to help town by reading their OWN role pm. 
Not every line of a PM is going to matter. One could read the first and last, and be good to play. If they end up really needing the defend the role justification, then more, but in the mean time I don’t see what town would gain from them reading a lengthy journey entry about some potentially boring subject.

Also, at least for DP1 not knowing if you have a power role, makes it impossible for scum to read from your actions if you have a power role. May be a suboptimal strategy, but it’s been done in plenty of games.

Im generally in favor of longer day phases, but not too long, and never as a last minute change.

I consider it a bastard move when day phase end before people even have the chance to interact… at the same time, when scum counting down the clock shouldn’t suffer moved goalposts (I don’t consider this to matter dp1).

Regarding what we voted for, I don’t think it matters…

I joined half in joke voting for Skibidi Toilet after the game was already full. And I was meaning to fake claim Camera Toilet no matter what (even if I got assigned that)… Then the PM came and no connection… I was going to do it anyways and say Wylted wrote a diary entry about watching that show, but I got a little busy with a date, and I can see now it’d be a Red Herring which would hurt towns analysis.

Sadly, my role PM has nothing to do with the masterpiece of cinematic art that Skibidi Toilet.

The role I suspect he has, is more effective if there’s less people who voted for him.

Not that I’m trying to get tunnel vision on one possibility.

8. Earth 
9. Owen  
10. Banana.  14 message long role
11. Joebob 
12. Austin
13. Barney.  Has crabs
14.  Whiteflame

I distrust Lunatic right now, due to the extra Supa/Vader vote. But if town or scum the answer is too obvious to need to ask, and it’s a valid answer (we all make that kind of mistake).

Is it at any point in the day phase, or three votes sitting on you at the end?

If unclear, when it gets to the end it might be nice to have the exact three in you to ensure it works.

Also is it actually three, or three or more?

Either way, I am thinking we should stick with the current people who have voted you to minimize confusion (this is a request for everyone, no one who hasn’t already voted for him should vote for him… tradition be damned).

If you have pubic lice (crabs), you may experience intense itching in your genital region. Pubic lice can spread to other areas with coarse body hair, including the:
  • Legs
  • Chest
  • Armpits
  • Beard or mustache
  • Eyelashes or eyebrows, more commonly in children

Justin Baldoni’s Ego

@FLRW
Yes, I have had a lot of Sue's.
With that attitude you’ll never be a real feminist like Justin Baldoni. It’s not enough to imply you hooked up with them, you have to also say demeaning things about their bodies; and ideally spend all your money on bots to claim that you’re the victim of DV by the hands of those sluts who wouldn’t put out for you…



I’m actually a little surprised none of those bots have popped up in here. On Facebook any story that mentions Ryan Reynolds in any context, is immediately flooded with them (and yes, Blake Lively refusing to undress for Justin Baldoni, has morphed into Taylor Swift committing DV against him).

Devils advocate- is trumps unlawful coup morally justifiable?
Had to say it’s a coup when it’s by the democratic majority.

And yes, hypocritically I argued it was a coup by a fertility cult in my last debate.

While interesting, that they aired the whole answer first and then a cropped version on 60 Minutes, implies to me they were not trying to conceal anything so there’s not much substance to that lawsuit

Hell, when Trump engaged in a bizarre racist rant at a press event, I doubt any news channel aired the whole thing on any of their prime time shows. This doesn’t mean they were all being controlled by Trump, rather it just shows the normal process of editing for time.

Further, assuming that network is found to be at fault, it doesn't say much of anything about her.

Got the first argument page in place. I cannot say it's a perfect representation as I have no feelings on the topic:

As always, feedback is appreciated; for this one particularly if there's any organizational changes (since I'm going to copy/paste this one as a base for the next argument page)

Progress continues.

The category for logical fallacies looks good, even while there's so far only eight pages built: https://debate.miraheze.org/wiki/Category:Fallacies
One fallacy I have not seen a writeup for before is the Retro Hoc: https://debate.miraheze.org/wiki/Retro_Hoc_Propter_Ex_Futuro
Something I'm having a little fun with is renaming some of the fallacies to be more inclusive. Can't say if it'll ever make a difference, but I can try.

Since I'm using ChatGPT so much, I've added a category for the frameworks I'm building in it to then build pages with: https://debate.miraheze.org/wiki/AI_Fallacy_Framework

This week I plan to get a couple of argument pages up. I was trying to, but I needed to get some of the logical fallacies they reference in place first.

A lot of it is my opinions (which is not to say anything needs to stay that way). I have only pulled from old guides a little so far, and those were ones I had a hand in. While the goal is partly to keep information from these sites alive, having been debating on and moderating them for so long I believe it's safe to say much of the information is distilled inside me.

Admittedly I feel a little shame that when I made the Kritiks guide I put in a ton of research, but I did not record citations. I'll attempt to add citations when I make a Kritiks page, but it won't necessarily be the same places I originally gathered that data.

One tragedy is that Imabench wrote a trolling guide, but it was on a fansite for Debate.org someone had made and kept an iron fist control of. When without notice they deleted that site, so that and other good content was lost forever. Which is why this wiki is hosted by Miraheze, because I expect them to survive; further the format allows anyone interested to step up and be an editor.

The guy is all but claiming Ryan Reynolds used a time machine to mock him… of course he also denies any resemblance to how he’s being mocked, which begs the question of how he knows that’s mocking him?

Somewhat related to my previous post, I have begun added bracketed description of a single standout point into some debate titles.

I was adding a semantic comedy debate to the previous category, which crossed over with abortion debates (https://debate.miraheze.org/wiki/Category:Abortion_Debates), and it camouflaged with the others in a way that could be misleading if someone mistook it for serious like the rest of them. So "Should Abortion be Illegal in the United States of America" became: Should Abortion Be Illegal in the USA (Rap Exception).

...

On that note, I'd say the debates section is far enough along for anyone to join in.

My next goal for that wiki is building some content for the arguments section

I am also considering commonly incorporating a few symbols to do shorthand denotations of effectiveness (➕ and ), and  logical validity (✔️ and ✖️). Or maybe use the plus/minus for pro/con and leave the strength only testified by the logical validity. Anyone have any thoughts on that?

Oromagi's series of debates with ramdatt. Since he knew ramdatt wasn't going to reply, he joked around with the resolutions.  There were four such debates, two of which had similar topics and therefore the same reply from oromagi.  "If you want constructive information about the coronavirus, listen to Andrew Cuomo" became a debate about whether Andrew Cuomo could offer good info about construction during the coronavirus to oromagi. A debate about "WHO," as in the World Health Organization, became a debate about WHO the radio station. A debate about the now former president of Liberty U Jerry Falwell became a debate about Jerry Falwell, septic tank installer.
I've given them their own sub-category!

Plenty of other stuff will eventually end up in there too, but they really do exemplify why basic spell check is important.

Unless AI gets a whole lot better, I hope summaries written wholly by it become an outlier. Still, they served well enough to get a barebones operation going... A much as I've had continued fights with it over such issues as identifying that the vote tabs are publicly accessible.

One good thing is that what it writes feels even-handed. But that is a problem if it's even handed with stuff it made up on a topic, instead of what each side covered.

Springfield needs more immigrants to solve their stray cat problem.
Ironically, that is literally what he accidentally argued during the presidential debate (his cat eating commits were to explain why he killed a border security bill).
