EBWODP: Also Dr.H I thought it was your policy not to post at night?

I felt the need to. This isn't really going to affect who the scum hit, they can't hit me, they can't do anything to me, and it shouldn't really alter their opinions on anyone else. If Bumatlarge is spot on with his analysis, they're wary of him regardless of whether or not I say he's great.

I think this will be pretty much non-effectual. I'll never make a lynch case/scum case at night though.

I'm going to point out that "did the mafia get me elected to kill kav, or because they couldn't stop me is wifom"

I agree that bum is making some solid points and actualy hunting scum, which is what we need. I think his focus might be missplaced, but if it gets discussion going I'm willing to weather any and all accussations.

Because I know its coming, yes I did contradict myself a lot, I do that often, I doubt myself a lot, its something I'm working on fixing in my play. however you'll notice that when I decide to take a stance I stand firm, like my conviction that AO is scum, I still think he is.

However if you guys want to lynch me I'll understand, my play hasn't been stellar and my binge of posting while drunk and angry isn't helping matters.

Oh, and chaoser I went for AO because I felt his posts were legitimately scummy as opposed to ON's which felt more like a bored townie to me. However if you feel strongly that ON is scum (and your case against him looks good) then I am willing to go along with it.

Well sure it's WIFOM, it's impossible to know what they were thinking. But you can't win mafia without making guesses about what people are thinking or trying to read into it/figure out scum plans. It's something I need to think about, regardless. I don't think it'll hurt to share whats on my mind right now.

This is in response to being called out for blindly voting for GMarshal. He provides us with this extensive post of bold reasoning. A strong analysis over a strong leader? What does that even mean? Dr. H and GMarshal both appeared to be good analyzers as well as leaders. The rest of the post is just pointless blabble about the goal of the game and keeping the town united.

No, but it looks highly suspicious that you don't post any thoughts/opinions (or anything at all really) since the game has started, and then come in and vote.

What are your thoughts on the current situation?

Why do you like GMarshal the best for mayor?

Why don't you like the other candidates?



Alright, so I made a really noob mistake of not posting a bunch before I make a vote. It's my first game here, and while I know that shouldn't be an excuse, it's the only one I can come up with.

Anyways, as for questions

What are your thoughts on the current situation?

Just reading the past pages of posts has made me realize I need to be more careful with what I post, and I should post more often.

Why do you like GMarshal the best for mayor?

-Seems to be more analyst oriented
-Is willing to consider the lynch of kavdragon
-Seems to be "Pro-town"
-Protactium seems to care too much about the assassin game.
-Pandain is trying to get Protactium to be mayor by making people support him through his dt reveal, I don't think this is smart.

Why don't you like the other candidates?
-Now that I voted for GMarshal , AirbladeOrange, RedFF say I should be lynched.
-Protactium has said he is not town.




Here is an apology and admitting to making a mistake. I think he is being real when he says he knows he made a mistake but again, the rest of his post is just throwing out relatively useless questions which many people have already been addressing.

I AM RUNNING FOR MAYOR.

My platform:
-ignore assassin bullshit for the most part
-I'd consider protact for pardoner because
a. he will use his powers to help the town in exchange for the bodyguard protection so he can win his game
b. pardoner isn't a strong role for the town
-keep town focused on hunting scum
-ignore everything pandain and kenpachi say

so if those seem like things you like, you should vote for me. My top 3 lynch candidates are:
1. originalname
2. mig
3. kavdragon



That makes 2 of us. I have been pushing for a day one lynch of originalname for a while, I think you should consider m0nsterChef too. I will do everything I can do to try and convince people to not vote gmarshal as the amount of reasonless votes for him is still unfathomable. Yeah i'm stalling on who i vote for because i want to see more solid numbers. That being said:
##Unvote Protact
## Vote DrH

As i feel we need a rational town mayor as opposed to an assassin mayor, though i still want Protact as pardoner. 2 extra kills for town and a check guys come on.


This is the third time you have insisted on lynching me, yet provide no other reason other than that I voted for Gmarshal without explaining why. If you read a couple pages back you'll see why I voted for him in one of my posts.


Here is the next useless post. He claims he explained why he voted for GMarshal, which I guess he did. I'm just not sure you can even call it an explanation.

I take this as playing the noob card to the extreme. "Come on guys, stop picking on me."



The rest of his posts were even more pointless than the ones I quotes. One of them being saying "dang" after Kav was found out to be green. Another was just a comment about the spamming in the tread.

He only has 10 posts thus far in the game and has contributed even less than me. At least I'm trying and open to answering questions. All of his responses were the opposite of compelling.

The reason I wanted to bring him up was the I was suspicious of him ever since the blind GMarshal vote. As the game goes on GM is looking more and more red. GM is even accusing me without any real analysis and has yet to ask me questions directly, which I am more than happy to address. But I guess my beef with GM will be left for another post later.

I am always leery of people who look like scum from the very beginning and fail to ever help their own public image.

With all that said I want everyone to be clear who are on my scummy list:
M0nsterChef
GMarshal
OriginalName

What should be noted is that m0nsterchef really only showed up to defend himself. Otherwise he contributed nothing but it's obvious he was lurking the thread, posting when his name was brought up as a lynching possibility. That's a major scumtell imo.

M0nsterChef's scumminess has been summed up quite effectively already I think, and DocH has added a finishing touch which I didn't realise:

redFF voting for different candidates is not a reliable sign that you're not scum - in fact I imagine it would be better for mafia if they could avoid voting as a block as much as possible (unless they had a key vote they wanted to swing).

However, things that have concerned me regarding your alignment:
[QUOTE]On April 11 2011 22:06 redFF wrote:
If ON flips red it confirms basically everyone thought of as red so far as red. If he flips green(highly unlikely) Then it clears a shit ton of people and we have a few people who would look very red, myself included.

I do not think that lynching a player for information is ever a good idea. We should lynch a player we think is red, and then gather the information we get as a result of that. OriginalName is nowhere near the top of my list of scum.

a reasonably large amount of posts by you are also one liners, and you've been feeding the trolls quite a lot, although that has calmed down the the past 15 pages or so.

Finally, there is this analysis from Kavdragon, our late lamented townie:

This is a sentiment that RedFF takes very quickly. He trusts that Protact is town right from the get go. That is NOT a townie reaction, nor is a noob reaction. A new player who is townie would be quick to question things like this, and while he may eventually come to the same conclusion, there's no way that a townie would reach certainty this quickly. His certainty betrays hidden knowledge, knowledge that only scum would have.

Up to this point (and beyond for a while) he has displayed the same characteristics that he is condemning Dr.H for. Your own FoS back onto you. You are trying to look like you are contributing, and it's not working.

He complies a list of inactives, but it's early in the day. No one needs to see the inactives that early. Another of many ploys to look like he's contributing. A few posts later he complains about everyone ignoring this out of place list, and posts it again. It's funny, because this fits Ver's profiling for a new scum player almost exactly. Right down to the out of place list. (See: Ver's analysis of XXX)

So if DrH gets hit night one we have a pretty good mafia list.


So if [redFF] flip scum we have a pretty good innocent list. It's an odd thing to say when you've FoS'd him not too long ago. Why would you guess that mafia would shoot someone who is scum?

The list returns! Still out of place. Also, lol at his guess that the mafia are all found in that. He quotes this again to bring attention to the list yet again, and to FoS M0nster. He still hasn't given any opinions. He's tunneling this inactive list, and bringing it up over and over without even bothering to update it. This reaks of scum.

He later slightly modifies his plan to tunnel those mostly inactive people that voted for Gmarshal.

My Thoughts on the Game



First and foremost, the spam needs to come down. We need to be able to read through this thread to scum hunt, and the amount of spam is making it really hard to read. Obviously a good idea, right? So why is everyone still spamming? A few people on the top of my spam list are

RedFF (For posting a lot of lists pointing at people, and asking tons of questions of people, but not actually contributing as much)

Gmarshal (For posting more than is healthy. I know that you have a lot of things to say, but when you have that much to say you need to learn how to condense it. You don't have to reply to every single person when almost everyone is talking to you.)

Dr.H (Not bad like RedFF, but in the similar vein as GMarshal, I think that you can condense what you are saying. If there are three people who say something scummy, wait a bit, then put your responses into the same post or something.)


I don't think anyone is used to having 50 pages to analyse by day one. I'm certainly not. I've often been told that it's useless to analyse on day one, and I've disagreed with it before. As daunting a task as it is, I agree with Dr.H that there's plenty of material to get started on. Sure it won't be as reliable as the material that we will have by day 3/4, but there's no better time to start analyzing than NOW.

If you wait, it won't happen, so I'm going to ask EVERYONE, even those who are bad at it, to try thier hand. By this time, the only people who don't have scum reads are scum. Take someone who you think is scummy, and analyse them.

Right now my main concern will be inactive/lurker types, because they are the higher priority for lynching.


I get your point about spamming, i will try to tone it down. Sorry if I'm spamming a lot, just trying to learn/catch scum. That said, this post doesn't really have any content.

Agrees with my sentiment that there should be less spam, and then proceeds to post more frequently than he has all game. Wtf mate?


RedFF has been tunneling, spamming, and not contributed to the thread yet. He has posted that he thinks that Protact and dr.H are good candidates, but simply mirrors others arguments when he gives his reasons. He has yet to really come up with any good reasoning that is his own. He fits a clear pattern for new scum.

RedFF is RedFF


Ok then. Now bearing in mind this is my first mafia game. I submit to you that i have been playing town badly.

So i will try to explain each quote and why i did what i did.

I said this because i thought that no mafia in their right mind would claim assassin. At the time he was the only person who i thought i could read as telling the truth. I also said votes are subject to change. And mine has.

I was put off by his aggressive posting, and honestly had no real idea what i was doing at that time anyway. Yeah it was a mistake and i went and read through some old games of his and saw that he plays like that. In my mind i knew quite soon after i posted that that i was wrong, and am now in support of DrH's campaign for mayor.

On to my list of inactives. I originally made it because gmarshall said he wanted to lynch an inactive/lurker. I posted it a bunch of times because i thought that keeping an inactive list updated on the thread would be a good idea to help more experienced players analyse. After people telling me it was bad and realising myself it was not useful i decided to stop posting it.

i mean it's day 1 so these reads are shitty but i think the scum team is:
kavdragon
mib
aidnai
jackal58


and some other people idk, thats just a baseline guess i'm really only feeling good about kav and mib at the moment


So if DrH gets hit night one we have a pretty good mafia list.


I kinda posted this without thinking, as i have done a lot in my first ever day of mafia. Maybe i thought it would help. I guess i wanted people to just take note in case he did get hit. Kinda dumb thing to say i realise now since it was so early and so many things were and are subject to change.

Me saying i'm enjoying myself is a scumtell. I honestly can't really respond to that except that now you think I am scum a lot of my posts are probably scumtells.

In regards to posting that list again.

I actually posted this 2 posts after in clarification that the only mafia member i thought was on that list was m0nsterhunter. You seem to have ignored that posts. So lol at thinking that anyone would think everyone on that list is scum.

I understand that getting anything 100% definitive out of a lynch is wrong. This was a bad post. I was really tunneling ON at the time pushing for a lynch because he was and is my number one scum read. I still maintain that if ON flips red that implicates M0nsterChef and Gmarshall in my eyes. Because m0nsterchef has argued against me with ON, but they haven't really communicated with each other. And because they both voted for GM with little to no reasoning.

About the spamming, I am trying but when i hear something i disagree with i've been trying to get down what I think far too quickly. I took some time with this post to be fair. Please anybody tell me where i'm going wrong and why they think i am scum.

A dt check asked for by DrH on me would be a good idea so I don't have to explain my noobie town behaviour and can analise instead.

I do not think that lynching a player for information is ever a good idea. We should lynch a player we think is red, and then gather the information we get as a result of that. OriginalName is nowhere near the top of my list of scum.


What he's saying is that lynching ON might be a gamble, but it's one with a high reward. Either we kill him, he flips red and we've got a few red buddies to point out, or he flips green and then people like RedFF will start to be very red.

A risk that might just be worth taking, unless there's another good option.


Lynching for information is like fucking for virginity.

Lol yes, that is one way to put it, but the information we could get from lynching ON is extremely limited. If he were to show up red, the people that he might implicate would be Mig and possibly GMarshal as well due to their association with him, but those links are still relatively weak. You'd need more evidence then 'association with a mafia' to justify a lynch in the later days. If ON turns up green, we get just about zero information since a ton of people have already suspected him of being mafia.


Correct. He's an almost entirely inactive player, if he flips green there isn't really anything to examine. This "Lynch for information" is a terrible terrible idea.

Oh sweet, looks like GM is dead. Cool, then I can give some blue advice since what I've seen so far has been woefully inadequate.

Medics: Who you think will be hit. No further discussion.
Tracker: DR. H! Since vigs and assasins can't hit tonight, this is an obvious choice. Even if you disagree with Kav and I, you can't really argue that this won't produce results.
Watcher: This role is so strong, especially night 1. Act like a medic, sting like a DT.
DT: Obv scummy people, ignore that there is a GF imo. Just keep it to yourself if you visit town.

Just be smart. Bum will help you the rest of the way.


Also remember you accused me of posting generic advice? I at least got it first.

Also Dr.H cannot be tracked as he is immune to *all* night actions, that includes tracking.

Instead of this generic advice I'd like to see a list of who exactly you think needs protection and who needs dt checks, as well as who needs to be tracked or watched, I'm curious to see where if anywhere our lists overlap


Well it's fairly obvious that I am town who knows how to play, so my blue advice is good. I missed the mayor pardoner immunity which makes me sad. I was mainly pointing trackers at Dr.H anyway, but since that is ruled out, everyone can disregard the blue advice.

Bumatlarge makes good points against Gmarshal and rereading Barundar's posts, his meta read on me is pretty valid. Although I disagree, he has no way of knowing what I'm thinking or reading my mind so I would probably think the same thing if I were him. There are a few of his posts that I thought were scummy and I'll point them out.

I'll be reading through all of GMarshal's shit soon. The fact is, by the time GMarshal's campaign was going strong, I really just scanned his posts because I was too tunneled onto Kavdragon and GMarshal was much more placid. Everyone seemed to find him agreeable so there was never a huge red flag get off, although I started getting vibes later on that he was trying too hard and he was actually contradicting himself a lot. But I wanted my read on Kavdragon to be true so bad I overlooked that and that is really shitty town play. I actually should apologize for that.

This is my conflict:
Did the mafia put me in office because they thought it was worth it to kill Kavdragon? In a normal situation, mafia wouldn't want me in mayor, but (they would know for sure Kavdragon is innocent) if they can get a guaranteed lynch off on a town-aligned power player (they do take the chance he's an assassin tho) and then flip that around to get me lynched that's a big first two days for scum. Seems like a good plan actually.

But are they willing to put me in as mayor? If GMarshal is scum, and his platform as mayor was really to do the thing that pissed off the least amount of people, he still gets the pardoner protection from night actions which allows the scum to pick a second person as godfather. That's a pretty big advantage against investigative roles.

That's sort of my vision of whats happened right now. I have reading to do and I need to cool my jets this time. Bumatlarge you're making a lot of good points, I know you think I'm scum and you want me lynched, but I guess I'm inspired now to do better analysis? I'm glad you're in this game anyway, if I get mislynched for the poor decision I made and my bad attitude in the beginning of this game then I think you'll lead town in the right direction.


Icing on the cake. I make good points. Naturally, because you know I am right. You were tunneling Kav and ignoring GMarshal. Also very apparent, that seemed like it was part of the plan. I accept your apology but if you have 1) Shitty town play and 2) great scum play all rolled up into one, you have yourself a great lynch. The next two paragraphs aren't making me sympathetic. Your drawing modern art on a chalkboard while I'm playing connect the dots. And thank you again for the compliments, I'll make sure to give you more.

I'm actually not one for bashing aggressive play, but yours was pointlessly aggressive. I recall a response to Kav where you said that you were going to drop the charade of constant aggression. I had to pause for a moment and see if that was a legitimate excuse. I think you would have to be attempting to pressure people to get an alignment read. Except you ignored GM at that time, the number 1 offender. I'll try to get a Dr.H analysis up. In the mean time, read every post Kav has made when the the lynch on him was going to be apparent. It has great stuff on Dr. H in there. Kav's lynch was not a mistake, it was a desperate move.

And if GM doesn't flip scum, you have nothing to worry about right DH? Right?....

I'll respond to you when you have actual analysis. I'm not going to respond to your attempts to provoke me, that's not going to help anybody.

This could just as well become the bumatlarge vs DrH show but that's just going to clutter the thread and I have no intention of doing that. You're free to analyse me and call me scum all you want of course, but I remember how badly I've fucked up the town before doing arguments like this (me vs youngminii in salem, me vs youngminii in some mini mafia game, me vs pandain in insane mafia i) and I hope to avoid that.

Ok, I post large posts that are not always content-full, but I *am* trying to contribute and help. I provided a blue list during the day to foster discussion, it was ignored, I pressured kita to see how he would responds, people got pissed at me for it, I tried to keep the assassin out of office, that was apparently anti-town (although I stand by it btw). It seems like theres nothing I can do that won't have you people yelling scum.

Also, guess who else posted large posts that were even emptier than mine? Kavdragon.

Sensuously lynching me is stupid, we are already down one active townie, are we just going to lynch them all until we reach the endgame with Serejai, M0nsterchef and Mig? Because thats going to be a very dull endgame, where lynching is going to be a guess.

Still if your buddy is Dr.H this a great plan, link us through really tentative evidence and when I flip green be like "oops, I guess he wasn't scum, guess that means Dr.H is town". Proceed to lead the town with some more great "analysis" and get the rest of the vocal players killed. Proceed to lead the remaining players in circles.

You know what, I want a DT check on this guy. I thoughts his motives were pure because he was trying, but now I think there could be something more sinister here.


If you really think Kav's posts were empty compared to yours, you need to read them again. I read Kav's posts and yours in my first read through, and the difference was apparent. Kav wasn't posting for his benefit. He was genuinely unconcerned of convincing people of his alignment, it would be nice, but he was focused on town cohesion, and he got it. Your agenda was yourself. Proving yourself and the newer townies, and it worked to an extent. It was a shame I was not here earlier.

If you think Dr. H is my scumbuddy, anaylize myself and analyze Dr. H. You're so desperate that you just want to throw things around hoping it doesn't hit you in the back of the head. I don't need a DT check on you, I know you are scum. Dr. H has given HEAPS on posts that link you to him, and the only thing you have is my threat to him.


Ok, I'm not starting a shitstorm over this, I've done nothing but try to be protown all game long, foster discussion and make people talk, what I'm getting here are baseless accusations of "not posting enough content" and "trying too hard to get elected". Congrats, you caught up to my meta, I post mountains and mountains of posts, some of them end up not having very much content, I assure you its not intentional, but I post whatever I'm thinking, if its stupid or wifom then I'm fine with people calling out on it, but it isn't anti-town, and if you think its a cause for a lynch well then, see if you can get the town to agree to it. Mind you these are the same people who put eight votes on an assassin for mayor, so I wouldn't be surprised if they went for my neck.

Anyway, I'll answer any new accusations, I covered your points thus far and apparently me answering your accusations would also be " contentless posting" or "trying to hard"

Do answer me one question though, why, when I was in the lead to win the elections did I post a blue list and pressure Kita? it actually made voters switch off me, and I took all kinds of hell for it.


Yes it is.

Hey guys, I'm sorry for my lack of game knowledge. The mods sat down and explained some of the rules and gameplay to me so I think I have an idea of what's going on now.

Here is my analysis of all players. I think I have everyone figured out now. The mafia is easy... cause only mafia can change their votes so we know who they are already. I don't know why the thread says there are only six... cause it looks like there's at least 10 or so.

Next I did the assassins cause they're pretty easy, too. Jackal seems very hostile so I think he's an assassin. Protactinium said he was assassin. I don't know who the last assassin is but it's probably one of the red people because maybe assassins can change votes, too.

Blues were tricky... most are just guesses. Pandain said he's DT but I think he's lying about that. I still think he's a blue something though. bumatlarge and coagulation seem very good at this game so I think the mods probably picked them to be blue since they have experience. I also think Barundar is blue and the mayor probably thinks so too which is why he's trying to kill him.

This guy is amazing, you should be more specific though as Im sure you'd be able to peg our exact roles. I'm the veteran role of course, and coagulation is a vig.

You enjoy the same bodyguard-protection the mayor has. You are not immune to lynch, and if you are the lynch target, you may not pardon yourself.


Oh sweet, looks like GM is dead. Cool, then I can give some blue advice since what I've seen so far has been woefully inadequate.

Medics: Who you think will be hit. No further discussion.
Tracker: DR. H! Since vigs and assasins can't hit tonight, this is an obvious choice. Even if you disagree with Kav and I, you can't really argue that this won't produce results.
Watcher: This role is so strong, especially night 1. Act like a medic, sting like a DT.
DT: Obv scummy people, ignore that there is a GF imo. Just keep it to yourself if you visit town.

Just be smart. Bum will help you the rest of the way.


Also remember you accused me of posting generic advice? I at least got it first.

Also Dr.H cannot be tracked as he is immune to *all* night actions, that includes tracking.

Instead of this generic advice I'd like to see a list of who exactly you think needs protection and who needs dt checks, as well as who needs to be tracked or watched, I'm curious to see where if anywhere our lists overlap


Well it's fairly obvious that I am town who knows how to play, so my blue advice is good. I missed the mayor pardoner immunity which makes me sad. I was mainly pointing trackers at Dr.H anyway, but since that is ruled out, everyone can disregard the blue advice.

Bumatlarge makes good points against Gmarshal and rereading Barundar's posts, his meta read on me is pretty valid. Although I disagree, he has no way of knowing what I'm thinking or reading my mind so I would probably think the same thing if I were him. There are a few of his posts that I thought were scummy and I'll point them out.

I'll be reading through all of GMarshal's shit soon. The fact is, by the time GMarshal's campaign was going strong, I really just scanned his posts because I was too tunneled onto Kavdragon and GMarshal was much more placid. Everyone seemed to find him agreeable so there was never a huge red flag get off, although I started getting vibes later on that he was trying too hard and he was actually contradicting himself a lot. But I wanted my read on Kavdragon to be true so bad I overlooked that and that is really shitty town play. I actually should apologize for that.

This is my conflict:
Did the mafia put me in office because they thought it was worth it to kill Kavdragon? In a normal situation, mafia wouldn't want me in mayor, but (they would know for sure Kavdragon is innocent) if they can get a guaranteed lynch off on a town-aligned power player (they do take the chance he's an assassin tho) and then flip that around to get me lynched that's a big first two days for scum. Seems like a good plan actually.

But are they willing to put me in as mayor? If GMarshal is scum, and his platform as mayor was really to do the thing that pissed off the least amount of people, he still gets the pardoner protection from night actions which allows the scum to pick a second person as godfather. That's a pretty big advantage against investigative roles.

That's sort of my vision of whats happened right now. I have reading to do and I need to cool my jets this time. Bumatlarge you're making a lot of good points, I know you think I'm scum and you want me lynched, but I guess I'm inspired now to do better analysis? I'm glad you're in this game anyway, if I get mislynched for the poor decision I made and my bad attitude in the beginning of this game then I think you'll lead town in the right direction.


Icing on the cake. I make good points. Naturally, because you know I am right. You were tunneling Kav and ignoring GMarshal. Also very apparent, that seemed like it was part of the plan. I accept your apology but if you have 1) Shitty town play and 2) great scum play all rolled up into one, you have yourself a great lynch. The next two paragraphs aren't making me sympathetic. Your drawing modern art on a chalkboard while I'm playing connect the dots. And thank you again for the compliments, I'll make sure to give you more.

I'm actually not one for bashing aggressive play, but yours was pointlessly aggressive. I recall a response to Kav where you said that you were going to drop the charade of constant aggression. I had to pause for a moment and see if that was a legitimate excuse. I think you would have to be attempting to pressure people to get an alignment read. Except you ignored GM at that time, the number 1 offender. I'll try to get a Dr.H analysis up. In the mean time, read every post Kav has made when the the lynch on him was going to be apparent. It has great stuff on Dr. H in there. Kav's lynch was not a mistake, it was a desperate move.

And if GM doesn't flip scum, you have nothing to worry about right DH? Right?....


Ok, I post large posts that are not always content-full, but I *am* trying to contribute and help. I provided a blue list during the day to foster discussion, it was ignored, I pressured kita to see how he would responds, people got pissed at me for it, I tried to keep the assassin out of office, that was apparently anti-town (although I stand by it btw). It seems like theres nothing I can do that won't have you people yelling scum.

Also, guess who else posted large posts that were even emptier than mine? Kavdragon.

Sensuously lynching me is stupid, we are already down one active townie, are we just going to lynch them all until we reach the endgame with Serejai, M0nsterchef and Mig? Because thats going to be a very dull endgame, where lynching is going to be a guess.

Still if your buddy is Dr.H this a great plan, link us through really tentative evidence and when I flip green be like "oops, I guess he wasn't scum, guess that means Dr.H is town". Proceed to lead the town with some more great "analysis" and get the rest of the vocal players killed. Proceed to lead the remaining players in circles.

You know what, I want a DT check on this guy. I thoughts his motives were pure because he was trying, but now I think there could be something more sinister here.


If you really think Kav's posts were empty compared to yours, you need to read them again. I read Kav's posts and yours in my first read through, and the difference was apparent. Kav wasn't posting for his benefit. He was genuinely unconcerned of convincing people of his alignment, it would be nice, but he was focused on town cohesion, and he got it. Your agenda was yourself. Proving yourself and the newer townies, and it worked to an extent. It was a shame I was not here earlier.

If you think Dr. H is my scumbuddy, anaylize myself and analyze Dr. H. You're so desperate that you just want to throw things around hoping it doesn't hit you in the back of the head. I don't need a DT check on you, I know you are scum. Dr. H has given HEAPS on posts that link you to him, and the only thing you have is my threat to him.


Ok, I'm not starting a shitstorm over this, I've done nothing but try to be protown all game long, foster discussion and make people talk, what I'm getting here are baseless accusations of "not posting enough content" and "trying too hard to get elected". Congrats, you caught up to my meta, I post mountains and mountains of posts, some of them end up not having very much content, I assure you its not intentional, but I post whatever I'm thinking, if its stupid or wifom then I'm fine with people calling out on it, but it isn't anti-town, and if you think its a cause for a lynch well then, see if you can get the town to agree to it. Mind you these are the same people who put eight votes on an assassin for mayor, so I wouldn't be surprised if they went for my neck.

Anyway, I'll answer any new accusations, I covered your points thus far and apparently me answering your accusations would also be " contentless posting" or "trying to hard"

Do answer me one question though, why, when I was in the lead to win the elections did I post a blue list and pressure Kita? it actually made voters switch off me, and I took all kinds of hell for it.


Yes it is.


Why? It ensures everyone has a clear view on my stances... and despite the accusations of "contentless" posts I think most of my posts contain something worth seeing.

No, it's a bad and shitty play. Bum's analysis on you is pretty good. Looking back you've contributed much less than Kav. You've been wishy washy in your lynch choices.

At first you said you'd lynch an inactive, this draws the least attention and is agreeable to most people. Then as soon as you're criticized for that seriously, you say "Yeah I'm gonna change! Stand up and be a man!"

Then you go back to being completely indecisive and pretty much poking at inactives as soon as everything blows over. Your defenses here aren't convincing, they actually make you look a bit worse. I wish I had a read on your meta but I'm starting to think bum is right. Of course I won't put my votes on you until I read your post history for myself, I wish I had the time to do it today, but like I said: I'll wait until Day 2 to make a scum case. For the reason that I don't have time to analyse things much today and that it's just pointless to post it all at night since I'm invulnerable to hits for the time being.

No im not actually a veteran. If you really push GM doctor there is a good chance you wont get lynched the next day. Just saying.


I don't like time delay on your response but fair enough. Like I said, I'm going to go through what he said myself. Expect my thoughts pretty soon after Day 2 begins. I unfortunately have 3 essays to write tonight and am procrastinating like a motherfucker T_T

Your experiments with various controlled substances have produced the hottest new drug that's about to hit the black market: tdotium. This drug is so powerful of a psychoactive, it actually causes people to believe they've been transported to a magical land called Rainbow Rumpus Partytown, where the mushrooms are made of cake and you can ride ponies all night long. You've decided to put this drug to work to help the rest of your organization gain control of TLHQ. You may visit one person per night and slip a dose of your drug into their food. They will be far too drugged-out to do anything that night, so they will not perform their normal night-action. They will be informed that they were drugged-out as shit the next morning (sadly, your drug does not impair their memory). Being drugged-out does not prevent a Veteran from being a stone-cold badass, so he still takes 2 hits to kill.


I assumed that you would be informed whether green/blue/black.

I don't think barundar is claiming anything.

Oh I see. Well that's fair then.

I don't want to see any blue claims : /

Note who didn't get hit:
bumatlarge
chaoser
kitaman27
jackal58
aidnai
redFF

all potential power players or people who had very strong opinions/cases on day 1 that avoided death during the night. hopefully DT's got a hit last night and there will be a strong push for a good lynch today based off that. I would think any of these people would make great investigation targets.

Surprised at the choice of darmousseh, otherwise I'm not that shocked at the hit choice. If I'm mafia I'm thinking I want to take out big town talkers though.

Don't wanna WIFOM about it too much, but anyone who was a "big town target" that didn't get hit (there were no missed hits) is worth an analysis and a dt check.

Today on the shitter I thought "flamewheel is either assassin or detective making some ballsy play"

however i don't believe you are bad enough to DT claim day 2 on a check, I mean really? that's textbook shit. This pandain stuff sounds like mumbo jumbo you made up after the fact.

Here's what I think. I think you're the assassin. I think you came to the same conclusion as me:
Coagulation and Kitaman27 are the other two assasins.

You think you can win very quickly, if coagulation is lynched and you burn your hit on Kitaman27. I'm not convinced. This is just very odd behavior and I wouldn't expect this from a player like you of all people.

I'll look back on coagulations posts and crosscheck with your analysis tomorrow. Still working on homework tonight but I'm skeptical right off the bat. Please elaborate more on your DT gambit ESPECIALLY why you decided to claim?

Why not simply make a case? Everyone believed you were trying to help town as the assassin? Why not just say "look coagulation is probably mafia here is my case as to why" and get the lynch onto him? As I see it you have a huge incentive to see Coag dead if you got the same read on him I did and you are indeed the assassin : /

Yeah. The assassin gamble is way too risky and it basically guarantees protact is dead.

But if he is assassin, he has nothing to lose. THe other assassin's wont take a chance. They WILL hit him Night 2. IF he believes coagulation is teh other assassin, this is his only opportunity to win his game if im not mistaken
