Wouldn't this make mafia way overpowered, as they would know both the alignment and role of a few players? I think it would work better if we each just submitted a role and they were randomly assigned to players. booo, thats not nearly as much fun though! I have quite a few cool ideas that are specific to certain players, like if I get bum he gets a specific role, if i get tnkted he gets a specific role too, etc. | ||

If there are no KP roles(Since mafia has only 1 KP in a 30 player game), it means to me that we either have neutrals filled in to balance the game out. Is that a possibility, or did our fine town fill the roster with kp? Discussing balance at this point is a waste of time and breath, we don't know how the game is balanced, just trust that it is. Discussing that allows the mafia to blend in with baseless speculation. Instead of that let me ask you a question, which of the players in this game is the scariest as mafia in your opinion? | ||

You people are doing it wrong, these lists are supposed to be a point of discussion, just posting names is easy. All lists need to include *reasons*. "BC is on my list because he is pro-town" is not an acceptable statement. "BC is on my list because he has tried to keep town discussion focused and promoted a good environment for scum hunting" is a good reason. The point of this list is to provide a focal point for discussion. For example, all the people who said they think bum is town. Why do you think this?

1.) Usually but not always. I did warn you that things move fast 2.) Day1 lynches usually degenerate into lynching inactives, however with good scumhunting its sometimes possibly to pin down and lynch mafia 3.) Things that help us find scum. Basically limit yourself to discussing things that force you to commit to and opinion on someone. For example, if you say you really think _____ is town and defend them heavaly for three days and then they flip mafia, well then we have a lead. | ||

Between the two, who appears to be more scummy, and why? While you're at it, why don't you tell me why you have consistently harassed people to start contributing without doing so yourself? Also why you mentioned a few times why zodiac lists and the type were useless without reasoning behind the names when you haven't actually given your own thoughts on anyone at all so far. This is your biggest piece of analysis so far: Your posting stance is noncommittal. Your vote commits a lot. What's going on here? The first few questions I asked on varpulis and kita will be a perfect opportunity to start contributing some more btw. Don't forget to answer them. I wake up and this is the first thing I see, not bad. I haven't posted a zodiac list because I don't have enough to go on yet. I'm not going to write a list of people I perceive as vets, that would be hypocritical of me, I already pointed out that this serves no purpose, its not a bad idea to have three or four lists to discuss but having everyone post a list is a waste of our time. I have been contributing, what I haven't been doing is throwing around useless FoS without real support, I've been asking questions in an attempt to foster discussion. When I ask a question I myself cannot answer it, as it allows the person being asked the question to say "oh yeah, I agree with what you said earlier". My vote on torte is a pressure vote. I'm getting him to contribute by threatening to kill him, I do it pretty much every game. Its the only reliable method of luring out lurkers. You want me to commit between Varp and kita? Varp isn't his confident self, but I hesitate to make any reads based on meta, as peoples playstyles change, so until he does something that is actually scummy. kita is setting off every alarm in my head, but I'm waiting to see how he reacts to being called out before doing anything. Between the two I would rather lynch kita over varp at the moment, simply based on the amount of attempted contribution. While we are discussing scumspects, I want to point out that Barundar has yet to do anything really, I am waiting for him to contribute. | ||

GMarshal's List of Opinions (Part 1)
Karshe- I'm getting noob town reads from him, he has a couple posts where he tries to contribute, notably his accusation of BC, but other than that he seems to be trying to give opinions in his scant posts. He needs to post more higher quality posts before I can commit to a certain read of him, but I'm interested to see his thoughts. Mr. Wiggles- on the wrong side of a dt check, sorry but theres no getting out of a lynch here, it happens. If you are town and a miller or something I profusely apologize, but we always lynch on the words of a dead dt. Palmar- giving me town vibes so far, he is commited to an opinion, shot the mole and is firm in his convictions. The only scary thing is that he is playing this much like he played SNMMII where he was scum, so far he has done nothing to make me suspect him of being mafia and shooting the mole, which is an excellent mafia tool, makes me think he is more likely than not to be town Eternalmisfit- he seems to refuse to commit to accusations, at all. this post really stands out to me as he gives plenty of opinions, but fails to accuse anyone, instead he casts doubt on everyone, thats the kind of play I would expect to see from mafia trying to sow dissent. This post is a clear example of "leading" without contributing, role action lists need specific names and reasons rather than "follow this guy's list" chaos13- I'm not sure what to make of this guy, he generally fails to contribute, his major focus is calling redFF and Amber scum. I think Amber is probably town, as he seems to be trying to be of use despite his rather large limitations, so accusations against me make look at the accuser. He then accuses me with a case that is as solid as a paper mache wall. His attempts at focusing the town on a few lynch targets seems pro-town to me as it avoids the issue with all the votes being terribly split. His shouting match with Karshe also serves no purpose and hinders the town, although its not necessarily a mafia behavior as townies do this all the time too. This post suggests town to me, and posts from that point forward seem to scream green to me, in particular his frustration at the lack of an argument against him reminds me of my frustration at gryffindor (BM) in XXXVII where he consistently called me scum without an argument. chaos13's appeal to having defended townies is somewhat suspicious to me as well, scum defend townies as happily as town do. Right now I'm not ready to commit to his alignment either way, I'm willing to listen to arguments from both sides however. kitaman27- mostly lurking, however he gives enough opinions that I'm leaning more town than scum on him. Kenpachi- chaotic as usual, not contributing as usual, only "contribution" is the fact that he wants to lynch wiggles. You can stay for a while I guess, I just want a dt on you sooner rather than later if possible. Tackster- hardcore lurking, no way for me to give a real opinion, his role claim makes me think WTF. I'd DT him simply to avoid having to waste any time/attention on him at this point tnkted- you know what irks me? When someone is convinced of their own immortality and feels like for that reason they don't have to contribute. However tnkted does commit to one thing, tunneling sinani206, other than that he commits to practically nothing. He has more than some other players, so I'm willing to say he is green for now. Good possible DT check, especially since he defends tackster. hiro protagonist- calls node scum with weak arguments, derails the town with focus on Amber, however after that he picks up his game considerably, his day 2 posts are odd, but I'm attributing that to him having role information we don't and attempting to entrap scum. So far I feel he is green, but I'm willing to rethink that. Ok, this is part one of my list of opinions, I'll finish the rest of the remaining players after I get back from classes. | ||

Bum is allowed to kill for an infinite number of nights, because his role allows him too. Neither of them were lying. Come on GMarshall, that wasn't hard to figure out at all. GM what do you think about Palmar? I think he is a townie who fucked up. He killed a mole N1, which to me is a pretty good indicator that he is town. I very much doubt mafia would kill one of their own. I'll grant you that killing chaos was a *stupid* choice to kill our tracker, when it was pretty clear who it was, but I think that if he were scum he would have claimed a safer kill. As far as bum goes, has he roleclaimed? If so, around what page was it? Also if he had both KP from his role and his alignment wouldn't he use the ones from his alignment when his role abilities were rbed? | ||

I'm not buying Bums claim. I think its a fakeclaim. No serial killer in his right mind would *ever* claim, especially not one as experienced as bum. The only reason bum would claim that is if he thought it would buy him a longer life expectancy. As far as being roleblocked, I'm not buying that either. From a balance perspective rb's either block serial killer KP or they don't. Anything else is a gimmick. Bum is lying to save his ass and is desperate to survive today for some unknown reason. I'm not going to let him if I can help it. | ||

If TDL was scum, his scum team would know how to avoid being roleblocked. Meapak thought the people getting roleblocked were suspicious. I'm not going to totally believe Meapak's suspicion (He was considering Wiggle's BS lie, after all) but it's something to look into. That said, bum claimed roleblocked and I already proved why he is capable of getting roleblocked. I'm not buying GMarshall's scum claim. Torte's role description: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=227186¤tpage=95#1884 I'm asking everyone who thinks TDL is the slightest bit suspicious to read that post. It is unfortunate Meapak had to die (lol DropBear), as he could of given us some really useful info today. I don't think either TDL or bum are scum. Bum is a SK, and the Scum are trying to throw us off guard by centering discussion around him. My vote is staying on Palmar. As I said before, he hasn't done anything that makes him worthy of being called Town. You are *clearly* not following the logic here, so lets imagine the situation from a scum and a sk perspective for a second shall we? 1.) You are Scumatlarge the fact that you were batmans nemesis has just been revealed and its likely that every vigi and their mother is going to target you. You need to somehow increase your life expectancy so you can at the very least force the town to waste a lynch on you. Your options are pretty limited, and since its almost certain that you aren't going to be town aligned you claim SK this serves two functions, 1.) it means you'll survive till dawn, and 2.) you can probably shove any lynch on you onto "real" mafia. While you will eventually be lynched, its cool as you can still die and win, you are really just buying time to get all your anti-town powers into play. 2.) You are the renowned mass murderer Bumatlarge , damn, the fact that you are batman's nemesis has just been exposed! Quickly you need to cover for yourself! Do you even consider claiming SK? NO YOU DON'T if you claim SK, you are *guaranteed* to be lynched at some point 100%, you can no longer win, you have essentially forfeited. NO SERIAL KILLER WOULD EVER CLAIM. If bum were really a serial killer he would have claimed assassin, or survivor, or town aligned but misunderstood, anything *but* an alignment that *guarantees* his death. There is no fucking way bum is a serial killer, no way in hell. | ||

Also LOL at Palmar claiming assassin. I dont buy it. Now I know you are scum, you claimed assassin to buy another night for yourself, so you can kill more townies, you are just banking on there not actually being any assassins in the game. Plus *even if* you are telling the truth, your alliance with the town is *worthless* as we cannot enforce anything we ask you to do, as if you really are an assassin (which you aren't by the way) then lynching you to "enforce" our demands is an utter waste. You are just desperate to survive just one more night, so you can deal maximum damage to the town. Wonderful strategy, at this point I'm convinced you are scum, and so is bum, you are just busing him because his night ability isn't as valuable, if I'm not mistaken. However it seems like the town is content to let you scooch by. Whoever the bomb placing guy is, do you mind strapping one around his neck? For when he isn't dead tomorrow, I mean. | ||

The lynch is the town's strongest weapon. The mafia already knew that bum would be under pressure. What kind of an idiot plan would have one of their own randomly claim the chaos13 kill just to bus bum anyway. It just doesn't hold up. I'm an assassin, there are two more in the game. You claimed killing chaos13, because you are the only person with a known kp. Forestalling the question by claiming is a very nice mafia strategy, its one I tried using in PYPI.

If we don't lynch Palmar, we will kill bum, find out his alignment, and there's a huge possibility that Palmar will die tonight. If Palmar isn't killed by assassins, Karshe's bomb will get him. My vote stays on bum. Both are scum. One gives them a kp for the night, the other doesn't. I'm not going to be wondering about bum's role, I know he is scum and lied about what it is. There is no possibility Palmar will die tonight, because there are no assassins in the game! if there were three assassins one would have assuredly flipped by now with 10 or so deaths, don't you think?

When Palmar shoots yet another townie tonight we can all "ohh" and "ahh" about how it turns out he wasn't the assassin, bonus points if bums powers turn out to be something like "can, once per game, track a player" I'm done arguing with this rubbish town. You guys are getting played like the town got played in Insane 2 by Kav. Props to you Palmar, your scum play is every bit as good as it was in SNMMII. Oh, and without knowing if there were watchers or trackers in play you had no choice but to claim the chaos13 kill, its simple logic, you'd rather claim an anti-town action you think you can get away with then risk being caught by a DT. As I said, I'm done arguing, Palmar is as much of an assassin as I am the tzar of russia and as much as bum is a serial killer. | ||

I'll spell it out, because its apparently not obvious to everyone, but RedFF has made it abundantly clear that he has been in contact with a DT, and now he comes out with this "100%" certainty that Torte is scum. Put two and two together. If you go back and read you can probably figure out who the DT is and everything. I'm sure the mafia has already. Other than that, I'm now really shaky on my reads, I've been thinking and linking things from the PoV that Palmar was red since he claimed assassin, I need to rethink things. For one hiro-protagonist's vote on palmar takes a new light. Plus he has been lurking hardcore. I'm honestly kind of shaken that palmar was green, I was 100% sure he was scum.

And you were around when I made the argument about mafia not even knowing his role when they killed him. Any experienced player should know how unlikely it was for mafia to kill their mole just to buy fucking palmar town cred. I mean if they really wanted town cred they would have used wiggles since he is 50x the player. This is shit the veterans would have picked up on if you were actually town. Something else everyone needs to consider, hosts balance the teams in terms of skill so one side doesnt get crushed. Now look at the town deaths on our side. Kitaman, Meapak, BC, Node all good veteran players. Do you think decu balanced this game with just 1 good vet (wiggles) on the mafia side? Of course not. Between bum, jackal, GM, barundar at least one must be mafia and it is a lot more likely to be 2-3 of them. Kill bum first then Jackal or GM should be killed after. I would prefer jackal and I will write up a full case for it if I get home early enough. Easy to pick on us, you who only showed up an hour before the lynch. Yes, I fully believed Palmar was scum, and shot the mole, knowing it was an uber DT. When I made the accusation I was not aware that RedFF had crafted Palmars role, but if i had know I would have probably pushed the lynch anyway. I made the argument that it was not for "town cred" it was to silence a DT, that was all, it was making the best of a crappy situation. It would not have worked with wiggles, as he had no kp, and the mafia would not have gotten into a convoluted lie to do it. Again its easy to demolish our arguments now, but if you had shown up sooner and argued it while I was around this might have been averted. As far as considering how the host balanced, that is WIFOM to the nth degree. You have no idea how the game is balance, how many newbs are mafia or if the host RNGed the alignments, basing *anything* on "this is how the host would have balanced it" is bad play at the very least. I eagerly await your case against jackal however. | ||

For all we know and with the way this crazyass game plays, Amber could be the 3rd assassin and I wouldn't be fucking surprised if he was. I'm actually starting to consider that Jackal's list might legitimate. Lynch Barundar, shoot Karshe, Jackal claims he will shoot GM, and lynch Jackal tomorrow. We can figure shit out from there. Of course jackal has to lie, as the serial killer he needs to survive. Kill jackal, there are no assassins. Look at how many kp have been in play. Do you *really* think there are SIX more bullets that have yet to be fired? Hint, there aren't. Kurumi basically accounted for all of them before he died. There are no assassins. Jackal is a serial killer with a gun, who will kill town tonight if you let him fire and bring you one step closer to lylo. In fact the best play for the serial killer is to lynch scum today, shoot town tonight, cut a deal with the mafia tomorrow to tie the votes if there are enough mafia left and then create a stalemate situation. I'm not going to allow it, anyone not voting for jackal is allowing a townie to die tonight, and has their hands stained with Blood You want me to lead? Fine, I will. Lynch jackal, he is a serial killer. Shoot Barundar, he is scum Lynch DropBear, he is mafia We have this game in the bag, unless you let jackal shoot, in which case we are one step closer to lylo.

So stop putting on airs, and commit to an opinion. Who of the remaining players, not counting barundar is mafia? I'll give you a hint though, DropBear is mafia. | ||

An in depth, detailed analysis of DropBear The gig is up, I'm bringing down DropBear. The mafia made a critical mistake letting me live this long because I was "lurking". I'm a wolf, and I'm bringing down this bear. Lets take it from the top. A quick search shows that our good friend, the Murderous Bear, has all of 43 posts. Through a game that has hit well over 150 pages. Compare that to mafia XXXIX, where he had well over 200 posts. That by itself is a significant change in posting, one which is difficult to explain. "But Mr.Wolf" I hear you murmur "Thats, Meta, we aren't allowed to use meta" Fine, I agree, let us for a moment disregard the fact that our good friend is posting *far* less than he did as a productive member of the town. And lets not even take into consideration the high probability that a Paranoid Gun Owner role would land in the hands of the mafia team, as that too is fruitless speculation. Let us instead take a close, scrutinizing look at all 43 of his posts, after all mayhaps he has decided to play like Ver and only bust out huge useful posts, to sway the town. The first two are pregame spam, and can be disregarded, consider then his net number of posts to be 41. Let us look at his Day 1 posts, shall we? Day 1 My comments are, as usual in Bold + Show Spoiler + On May 31 2011 15:23 DropBear wrote: Hey everyone, only just caught up. First of all tnkted why the hell have you voted for Coagulation? This needs explaining. Questioning role related stuff, he is promoting speculation on an useless topic Second I am intrigued by Palmar. I have no idea what to think about a bro but I'll keep a record of who he speaks to. Attempted fistpumps that have been returned: GMarshal Node tnkted Attempted fistpumps that have been ignored: Amber[Light] redFF Even more useless fluff, this list serves *no* helpful purpose and only adds to the "content" of a as of yet vacuous post BC, I like the idea of a Zodiac list but I am very surprised to see myself on it. The experience of everyone else on that list is more then ten times mine. I don't mind being on there but I'm confused as to why I am The others are all good choices. An attempt to downplay his skill and experience, akin to the classic "i am a noob" scum tell, his insistence that he doesn't belong on the zodiac lists is an obvious attempt at dodging the pressure that those lists bring Scumhunting time! I find the following people extremely suspicious: kitaman27 tnkted Torte de Lini Tackster Kita is following exactly the same pattern as XXXIX. He has not said anything at all except tell people to shut up and posting vague accusations. In games in which he has been town he contributes much more actively. tnkted is posting extremely wierdly and I would very much like an explanation for the Coag vote. Torte is reknowned for being a heavy poster and has only 3 or 4 so far. Sure he is only in his first game, but other newbies like VisceraEyes, hiro protagonist and Karshe have been up and about providing opinions and trying to help. Tackster has already been done by Meapak and I am interested in him for the same reasons. At this stage I am voting for kitaman27. He is capable of much much more than he has been contributing and is following the same pattern as last game. This part of the post *at first* seems pro-town, but in reality its as scummy as you get, its a diversification of targets, splitting town votes so that the mafia can control the lynch. A real townie would have offered one or at most two targets, but this is an obvious attempt at 1.) splitting the lynch and 2.) hedging his bets, notice that Torte is on here with three other greens, this is so that later he can point at this post and try to garner town credit. Also his attack on torte is one that can be disproved by having torte mention his post restriction, exhuming him of lurker status. This is a well designed post in the sense that it *seems* constructive, but is really a deliberate plan to hurt the town, furthermore his only real "justified" target is kita. What a first post, huh? For those too lazy to actually go through the post itself, it basically contains 1/3 fluff, 1/3 "I am noob!" scumtell and 1/3 an attempt at splitting the town vote, while hedging his bets and attempting to appear pro-town while proposing poor targets. His next three posts are crappy analysis on those same targets, a very concentrated attempt at diversifying the lynch, by posting these "analysis" that can be brought down to one line arguments and that did not require full posts, with full posts however DB was hoping to be able to blend in as a "tryhard townie" Let us look at another post that piqued my interest shall we? We can call this the "association" exhibit. + Show Spoiler + On June 01 2011 01:52 DropBear wrote: Ok, so you're voting because Amber's trying really hard. Sandroba is a terrible lynch. The main reason seems to be his original plan. It was against the rules but when he posted his idea it was before deconduo clarified the rules. It might not be the best plan but he's obviously trying to help. So far this actually seems like a townie post, you know the whole "bad play =/= scum" thing, he gets no town points for defending sand, as a scum love to defend townies, but he does get a logic point He is accused of turning quiet. Within only 2 pages of the announcement of his plan the following people told him his idea was terrible: chaos13 Eternalmisfit Rean Varpulis Palmar Mr Wiggles BloodyC0bbler GMarshal stefftastiq redFF Mataza That is a lot of negativity to swallow, why is everyone surprised that he has gone quiet? I'd pipe down too if I was told by half the town to stfu. An useless list that adds fluff to his post and a deeper justification of sand's behavior than is needed, it is once again trying to hard to seem town, after the first paragraph is when most townies would have cut their argument, with perhaps one line devoted to this, but DB needed to make his arguments look convincing. Varpulis, who tried to alter the plan is then jumped on next. He decides to "withdraw" and is immediately jumped on by kita and Palmar. Their plans might not be good ones but it doesn't make them Mafia. They are just trying to help, if poorly. Redtooth in XXXIX was an example of that. Their contributions are much larger than several players so far, even if they have gone quiet recently. Here is the gold. Read this paragraph twice, its *that* relevant. This is a preemptive defense of their mole, he was trying to head off vigilante shots before they happened, it obviously didn't work out, but its an association that is rather relevant DropBear then has a nice little spat with kita, all about how kita is lurking just like in XXXIX, but the entire argument is based on meta. Its still an attempt at pushing lurkers, but I have to wonder why db chose kita, when there were more evident targets. That by itself fails to convict DB, so I suppose that so far its a null tell.

Brings up Tackster who wasn't under any real focus at the time, and diverts even more votes off the main lynch targets.

I am worried about what it would do. nothing really scummy about being suspicious I guess ^_^ Look at the rest of my post. It wasn't just Sandroba who was jumped on for offering a bad plan, Varpulis was as well. I'm liking the effort that you are putting in but I'm not convinced. Varpulis has been still very active and doing his best. He got timid briefly after being told he was playing poorly, so what? He's back to his normal self again now. Now theres no subtlety in this, he is brute force linking Sand and Varp, with the hope that sand will really get lynched and Varp will be cleared of all suspicion, for a while at least I would put a lot of money on both Sandroba and Varpulis being town. See, Varp, who isn't even being discussed is having credit bought for him by DB. Its a clever play, and one that will buy DB credit too when sand flips green. Very clever play, but a little too obvious. Wiggles, what? I have to say that I strongly disagree. You are worrying me, you just seem to be jumping on the bandwagon. Throwing light suspicion on a scumbuddy so they aren't tied together later, but understating it so that theres no chance of an actual case being assembled. When I was mafia I *loved* these weak FoS, as they made cred easy to gain, just light FoS and then talk about how right you were. Nice to know that somebody agrees. I still think kita is dodgy as hell, if one of these others comes up as a candidate I will gladly switch to them. Nice switch to Tackster then right back to kita as soon as someone agrees.

I've played only 2 games and wasn't exactly successful. He *really* wants to be taken off those zodiac lists, no? Why would a town player want to dodge pressure like this? Most townies would see this as a chance to shine, rather than cowering from the attention Next is my favorite day 1 post from DB, its his "analysis" of VisceraEyes, where he says nothing, points out a bunch of scummy moves on VE's part and then concludes "he is probably" green. 1 check for being wishy washy, and another for your analysis actually contradicting your conclusions. this is the post in question if anyone cares to read it. Also the so called "analysis" fails to actually analyze anything and limits itself to pointing out the glaringly obvious. Thats all of the day one material DB so kindly provided us with, I shouldn't need more damning evidence than this, but lets dive into it anyway. Day 2 His first post of day 2 actually seems extremely pro-town, its a detailed defense of chaos13, (here), but scum *love* to defend townies as well, best way to build town cred. Still I'll throw him a townie point, to counterweight all 40 scum points he earned day 1. His part 2 thoughts however are much more... significant. read it here he points out that kurumi is lying. And then advocates no course of action Let me say that again: DropBear points out a clear liar and makes no suggestion as to what to do. This is a deliberate attempt to avoid the controversy that proposing a policy shot or lynch would bring. This failure to suggest a lynch or shot on clear evidence indicates that he is trying to push for something to be done, without sticking his neck out. Part 3 of his thoughts are fascinating, as they mimic my own, any sane townie should have seen this, this is a case of DB pointing out the obvious, bussing a teammate that is already damned to die by pointing out what an reasonable townie should have already seen. The fact that he was able to post this to gain town cred just points at how awful we as a town are. This next part merits me going point by point + Show Spoiler + On June 04 2011 04:40 DropBear wrote: DROPBEAR'S THOUGHTS PART 4 OF 4 Other assorted tidbits - Bringing back BloodyC0bbler is an excellent idea. He's already flipped town. He's an expert player. Why not bring him back? I don't agree with the worries raised by Amber and others that his role could protect Mafia. From the looks of things, there are so many killing roles that the only time it could possibly harm town would be if he was still alive with only 5-6 players left and the only shot being a Mafia shot. Yay! Lets point out the glaringly obvious and neglect to mention the important points, such as 1.) mafia will shoot him 2.) Mafia now know to send their hit in at the very last minute - Wiggles' claim of framed and his night action bussed is theoretically possible. Theoretical. It is however bullshit. The chances of everything lining up so perfectly are astronomically small. It assumes that there is a bus driver, it also assumes that there is a framer. There then has to be him being framed, which is 1/31 chance, plus sinani being bussed with precisely deskcaress which is some stupidly small number. The chances of all these things falling perfectly into place are negligible. Bus, bus, bus your teammate desperately... There is also this post which I credit for starting the ridiculous sandroba v redFF v Jackal58 melee and completely derailed town for several pages. Not only this, he was jumping on whatever bandwagon was gaining speed at the time without starting any of them. His scum flip is no real surprise. This claim of being DT checked because he was on a zodiac list is rubbish. The point of the zodiac lists was NOT dt checking those on it. - I still don't understand why I'm on the zodiac lists and I would LOVE an explanation. No pressure please! I want to be able to seem like I'm contributing without any *real* scrutiny - This thread is reeeeeeeeally hard to read. Please stop posting every little thing that comes into your head, only post if you have something important to say. I'm having massive problems getting scumreads cos its just spam spam spam. Keep it concise and need-to-know. although I agree its an easy statement for anyone to make - The level of roleclaiming is ridiculous. My spreadsheet can't keep up with the notes. There is so much information out there now that Mafia can use and I encourage everyone who has not roleclaimed yet to stay silent, at least until you have something very important that requires revealing yourself.

Day 3 and onward Day 3 DB contributed nothing, while supporting Palmar, that would usually be good play. Except for the fact that Palmar played exactly like mafia. Other than that he went through the day with "Internet problems" which was a great way to avoid having to push for a bum lynch when I so conveniently saved him... His next major post is day 4, in his analysis of hiro protagonist. Which tries to look *really hard* like real analysis but is utter bs, basically it boils down to "he has a bad voting record" as a rule though, mafia usually have *good* voting records, since they know who is mafia, they only vote for the same target when they *have* to, hence they usually vote for their own team mates unless its a close thing. None of those lynches can be called a close thing in any way shape or form. His only other post of substance is his arguments against redFF, which are as poor as his arguments against hiro. He's been pushing bad lynches and behaving scummily all game long, while trying to *look* pro town. Not trying to help the town, but trying to look pro-town way too hard, rather than trying to win, he has been trying to build cred while misdirecting the town. Drop Bear is a mafia PGO and should be hung Kill the bear. Win the game. | ||

Oh, btw, I know we love the lists, but if we don't want to lose theres something we need to consider. A serial killer miller already flipped, I think there might be a mafia miller as well, which means that if we get the list down to only people who are unlikely to be mafia we need to consider other possibilities. I'm throwing that out there because otherwise this game seems dreadfully imbalanced, no? Anyway, lynch DB and we can worry about everything else tomorrow, or tonight. | ||

Your plan would be wonderful, except if we follow it and follow your plan, and there is a miller and a mafia outside the list then we lose. I'm betting that thats the case, and I'm betting that you are the mafia outside the list. You are desperate to silence me before the town listens to me and realizes "fuck, dt roles aren't foolproof". I'll agree to the plan on three conditons. 1.) You prove rean isn't mafia and just playing us 2.) You prove the only mafia left are on that list 3.) You prove there are no millers. Guess what, you cannot fulfill those conditions, so I will not agree to that plan. I'll execute steff, If I find evidence that his is mafia, otherwise you are shit out of luck | ||

Nice try with the chainsaw defense/huge OMGUS but it won't work. So to recap, please tell me how the game would need extra balancing other than a mole. We have established there is no framer and we have now established there are no millers. As for Rean being scum LOLOLOL. PYPI was a terrible example of a balanced game, it was hideously broken *because* there were no godfathers and no millers. I really doubt that after seeing the scum team anally violated in PYP:I by vote lists, decon was like "nah, its cool, I'll just fuck over the scumteam again" And the "OMGUS" is due to you providing no reasoning, but rather attacking me when I cast reasonable doubts on the lists. Blindly depending on list checks is a path to defeat. I'm almost certain that there is a miller or/and a role with a godfather like function, if there isn't I will be astounded by the brokenness of the game. You do realize that list checks were so broken even in games with millers that they had to be removed from the game Now you are telling me that a single mole would balance that brokenness? BS, there is at least 1 miller, and probably a godfather in addition to it. | ||

So, lets take a quick poll. Who here believes that there are no millers and that we should follow the lists to our demise? Who here agrees with me that if we shouldn't sheep a failure prone list, but rather *scumhunt*? Are we here to play mafia? Or are we here to sheep dts? I know what I'm here for. So, thoughts on my analysis of DB? Is it wrong? Right? Did people just glaze over it because it has too many words? I won't allow us to go quietly into the night, if we want to win this we cannot just go inactive! | ||

You're really fucked now because of that list and these idiots are buying your bullshit about millers and gfs and such. A gf would do jack shit to that list, if there was a gf on it then more of you would be scum not less lol. A miller would fuck it up I agree, BUT WE HAVE NO REASON TO THINK THERE IS A MILLER, WE HAVE TO FOLLOW THE VOTECHECK OF A FRIGGIN CONFIRMED DT. This is hilarious that people may actually side with you. Palmar ffs you know what to do. Once again all this is is a hardcore OMGUS/chainsaw defense from GM and Votechecks are op but what you gonna do? Keep on being desperate scum, you know and I know and your scumbuddy knows that there is a miller in that list, you know that if you convince the town to kill everyone on it you win, its just a matter of how much people are willing to sheep idiocy, rather than bother to *think* about whether or not such an op ability would be allowed without a counter, and of what your real intent is, mr "I oust dts" Do you really think that if there were two mafia left both would vote for the same target like idiots? The fact that you think that if I were mafia I would be that stupid is so condescending that it makes me actually angry. | ||

Yes Gmarshal being on both lists is suspicious, TOWN HAS TO KILL INTO THIS LIST, IT IS THE ONLY RATIONAL THING TO DO. Gmarshal was the main force behind palmar getting lynched over Bumatlarge lol. If you guys actually listen to this guy and don't shoot into this list then you are idiots. I've gone from being thought of as town to being questioned and doubted because I brought up a perfect plan which would result in scum's loss and of course GM is trying his hardest to prevent that. Right, the guy who has now killed two different SKs and a red is obviously not to be trusted. Oh he also mistakenly lynched the guy who claimed assassin, when he was sure there were no assassins (And was I right? I WAS! ^_^) You know what else I'm right about? There being a miller, I guarantee you there is. I've balanced games, at least trust me as far as "there is no way in hell there are listchecks and NO alignment disguising powers/roles in the game" Again, you are using the same exact arguments I used against radfield, even the same tone of rage at the town. Have you been reading PYP:I for pointers? I remind you I lost that game, so copying my strategy might not be the best play, Mr. I oust DTs . Oh, and by the way I CAN SPAM CAPS TOO! Not that it lends your arguments any credence. | ||

Go for it then, but shoot me because you think I'm scum, not because of some "list" Make a case. Yes I mislynched you, sorry, but *you* claimed assassin. Analyze my posts, point out what my motivation is. I've also killed two serial killers and called out bum on his bs from day 1 + not sacrificed anyone. Are you saying that all that gives me fewer "green points" than say RedFF? The guy who exposed three detective roles thus far? Really? Don't guess, judge people by their actions, I've only tried to help the town, redFF has only tried to lynch people at random, and his record thus far is poor to say the least. You have a KP, you are responsible for this town's victory or defeat. Don't throw my efforts away, please. | ||

But the thing is you're good at this game, I've read through PYPI and your posting almost didn't change at all when you turned mole, or not in a way I could've spotted the difference. And don't get me wrong, I notice other things too. Amber and Rean were among the last people to switch to my lynch. What it comes down to is looking at the actions at hand. You see, there are tiny little things pointing in your direction. Most of the town probably wouldn't have cared if it was me or bum who got lynched, both were "confirmed" anti-town and useless. But you really made it your case that I should be the one dying. I mean, your comments in that part were okay, there was logic and reason to them, but that's only what I'd expect of you, town or mafia. But, even if I end up shooting you, you have 24 hours to win the game for us. Show us what you're made of, you're our best analyst. There is enough information on the board. Lead us to victory beyond your grave. Why? I've already done more than enough for you guys, I'm tired of being right and then being called scum for being right. You can't even provide analysis to prove to *anyone* that I am mafia, hence you have no justification for turning that gun on me. Who made sure jackal died when people were all like "lol he is assassin"? Who called out bum on his bs Night 1? Who just provided the damning evidence that will kill DB? Who pegged redFF as the last mafia? I did. I fail to see why the hell I have to do all the work, this isn't a single player game. But I digress, you want me to solve the game for you? I already did, DropBear and RedFF are scum, the miller is probably me or Amber. There is no third mafia. I won already, I'd just like to not die, in case I'm wrong about redFF. | ||

I admit attacking Mataza wasn't correct but there is no way you can look at his posts and not think they are scummy as fuck. You killed Kurumi, scum have just as much of an incentive to kill SK's as town. You didn't kill Jackal lol. Rean inspected him and he came back black so we lynched him. Neither of these actions have made you "more townie". Gm will continue with this bs about PYP:I and how he doesn't want me to win when he couldn't regardless of what I say. Just don't listen to his ramblings and lynch dropbear, shoot him. GM you should still sacrifice steff if you are town obviously because then he is probably the other scum. "I pushed hard for wiggles lynch" is easy to say, when there was a DT on him *everyone* voted for wiggles. You exposed chaos13, and Rean and don't you fucking dare deny it. Actually as mafia there was *more* incentive to leave jackal alive than Barundar. barundar was fucked either way, jackal would have killed an additional townie and brought you closer to lylo, as well as probably making palmar mis shoot and having to waste a lynch on him. *I* pushed the jackal lynch, and theres absolutely no denying it, you guys were ready to let him sail by with his assassin claim. And yes this *is* exactly PYP:I | ||

Nope, *your reaction* to me questioning the lists makes you scum. I question the lists, you *immediately* had to devalue what I was saying by calling me scum, even if you didn't lynch me right off the bat, you couldn't allow me to focus discussion outside of the list. The whole plan for you to win safely is to kill everyone on the list, after that happens you are almost assured to win. Its damage control, the list already fucked you over in part, so you might as well get some free townie kills out of the deal. | ||

I've answered every PM he's sent me, he's been pretty afk though. I intended to pressure him to see if he was scum, but current events have kept me occupied, and basically determined who the other mafia is, no PM's required.

Maybe you can force their votes or something. c) you said we should rely on analysis, so let's keep all the information in the thread and out of PMs. Ask redFF, he interrogated me, he should have my role, I can't actually kill anyone anymore. I only had two sacrificial knives, I used both on kurumi. I wanted to keep this secret to scare the mafia in the later game, but I guess its a moot point now. I'm going to add Cths because I want to be able to ask certain questions about her role without the mafia hearing us on the offchance RedFF isn't the last mafia or is actually green.

While I haven't stated I'd shoot GMarshal there are several good reasons for killing him. Let's have a look at his "accomplishments" Calling out bum, whose role got leaked. Well so did I, and I am bad. Voting for Wiggles... well duh. Killing Kurumi, again... duh, he was an outed SK. Killing Jackal, once again, obvious choice, I am bad at this game, and I was independently calling for exactly the same thing, I think before GM called for it. DropBear: yes, this was good. I will agree to that. But was it a bus or was it a good call? So I did all these "obviously" pro town things, while the rest of the town twiddled their thumbs, I produced a monstrous, in depth analysis of DropBear but you are just handwaving it all away as if it were nothing, because some of the stuff was "obvious", when some if not most of the town was not doing this "obvious" stuff. Quite simply, if the jackal lynch was clearly the best move, why wasn't it an unanimous vote? GMarshal keeps rehashing these achievements in his defense, but most of it seems like obvious reasoning. Now let's move on to reason number 2 to shoot GM He has a freaking KP that we can't control. No, no i dont, 2 daggers, as redFF revealed, the only thing I can do now is PM people And finally bumatlarge Eternalmisfit Kurumi Jackal58 Karshe GMarshal Amber[LighT] Cthsazsa Rean hiro protagonist GMarshal Palmar Rean DropBear stefftastiq Amber[LighT] two lists. both lists have two mafia on them. By exclusion the remaining mafia is GMarshal or Amber. Except, of course, there might be a miller type role. so Rean, if you know something I don't. Please explain why GMarshal is a bad kill? I think I'm shooting redFF, but I really want to know why you say killing GMarshal is stupid. But wait! we KNOW theres a miller, and by induction that there is a GODFATHER role.

Its time I handed you the game guys, since its obvious no scumhunting is going to help with people who showed no real thought thought the game. Palmar is sure Cthsazsa is green. So, I'm going to gamble the entire game on that one read, mostly because I agree with it. This plan is going to abuse the fact that the mafia lacks enough KP to kill all the confirmed townies, so what we are going to do today is lynch Karshe, because I find him more likely to be mafia than steff. Then Palmar will shoot steff. If Karshe flipped green then steff will flip red. That night the mafia has to kill rean, which if I were mafia only leaves me, Palmar and Cthsazsa, if we reach that point, then Cthsazsa and Palmar lynch me. Its a win win situation, whatever happens we kill all the unconfirmed townies and leave only Palmar and his #1 (and my #1) town read alive. Again, if I'm scum, I can't win with this plan. Which is why we need to follow it. | ||

No offense, but I like my bases covered. RedFF revealed my role, I don't have any KP left, and fuck it, you know I'm almost guaranteed to be town. Lynch steff instead, Cstha has a pretty decent analysis of him written up. All I'm asking for is a little trust, for getting DB lynched at the very least. I think I earned it. | ||

There is one thing that RedFF didn't reveal about my role, at my bequest (when he was interrogating me in PM's I asked him not to ^_^), but I'm only willing to share it if I'm in real danger of dying, as it may give the enemies of the town a chance to fuck me over. Can you trust me at least until tonight? I'd rather not share it at all, but its rather important that I survive until tomorrow. | ||

You can't come up with a single scummy post of mine, or prove, even to yourself that I am scum. Yet you still want to lynch me. We kill who we think to be scum here, period, we don't kill people who are likely town to "reduce risk" especially when that risk is fictitious. Also, I hadn't actually read that last part about redFF's power in the day post. I wasn't aware of that, so I suppose it still lends your arguments *some* credence. | ||

We don't even know steff's role. No one has checked him and no one has claimed it. How do you know he dosn't have a gun. I don't have any shennanigans to pull and you know it. You just want me dead. I can accept that, but don't hide it under "oh its the best play". It isn't it makes not one whit of difference what order we do it in. You are ignoring a second major fact. How do you know its *mafia* we are dealing with. What if whats left is a serial killer. A list checking serial killer. I doubt it is, but it will be interesting to see what happens if Rean dosn't die tonight, no? Sure, cth is clear and so are you and lets accept that rean is. How do you know karshe dosn't have a hand grenade as part of his role? How do you know steff dosn't have a mindblast that can kill a player? You don't, you are just deadset on killing me. Of the three, I'm the only one who's role is actually fully disclosed, and confirmed by an outside source. Yet I'm the most likely to pull shennanigans? Once again, you have no real reason to kill me. Or at least no logical reason to. | ||

I *really* appreciate it. Don't bother apologizing, next time I'll leave you idiots to keep shooting into the town and killing each other. Oh, and for the record, I'm not only town, but I also know that theres a mafia and a serial killer left. I should thank Barundar for crumbing that, I wouldn't have realized in time. Now my trap is out the window. And after killing me, we lose for sure. Which is what you morons have earned. | ||

His role that *I* wrote specifically says it goes through all forms of protection. That said, I am still fine with switching over to Steff because I think he is most likely to be mafia. But decide quick, I'm leaving the house in 10 minutes. Palmar is town, sure. That dosn't make him right. As a matter of fact, based on his track record I'd argue that if we eck out a win it will be *in spite of* Palmar's "contributions". I never said she had a shot, I'm talking about her death vigi that goes through bp. Like serial killer vests. See, you don't care who dies as long as it isn't you. Thats not a very town trait. You know what, fuck it all, you guys want to fuck me over after everything I've done for you, for absolutely no reason other than this intangible "gm is dangerous, OH NO, he is a *decent player* whose role has been *fully* revealed, by an outside source.

You DO NOT lynch townies who are obviously not scum, but obviously that basic tenet of town play hasn't been absorbed yet.

We met on IRC, and I argued for killing Palmar with Jackal, and go into a shoot off end game, where we would rely on Jackal to win, but I would put our winning a chance to 50 % at best. I still think it was our best shot, but GM and DropBear however wanted to play on, so we went with majority decision + I was getting busy in RL so suited me fine to die Setup wise I think you can never let mafia KP=town KP in a game as large as this from the beginning. Would need at least 2 night KP, possible three, depending on the strength of the mafia roles. We lost the game because town had twice our KP in the end game. Game was broken horribly in the town's favor, and I'm not just talking about the list checks. Ressurection roles give confirmed townies, which are absolutely hideous for the mafia. You realize that if BC had been ressed then there was no chance of the mafia winning, right? We'd have 0 kp effectively. A vet vigi, who can become town confirmed, seriously? And I managed to talk my way out of the lists by pure miracle, we *needed* a framer or godfather. Overall this setup was hugely town favored, and essentially relied on DTs to win it. I don't think a single mafia was lynched due to analysis. | ||

As far as KP go. We got insanely lucky that the town had next to no aim. Had they not shot themselves to peices/used their roles better, we would have been exterminated twice as fast. With the bomber man, Palmar, two death vigis and a lynch, the town had more than enough KP to absolutely rock the mafia, with no real chance for the scumteam to do anything. Personally I feel like it would have been more interesting if multiple KP roles were banned, a mafia team with a medic, a role cop and a PM circle would have been really interesting, instead it seems like the mafia got handed the "traditional" mafia roles in the forms of kp and roleblockers. Another issue I had were the too restricting post restrictions, for example Amber's role takes out 80% of the fun in the mafia game, which is chatting, analyzing etc. It was *far* too harsh of a post restriction, IMO. A better post restriction is one that makes you say things in different ways, e.g. always post in verse. (Its clear that post X amount of smilies was not a *great* idea on my part, I should have chosen something less easy to sidestep.) Lastly, I though it was ironic I rolled mole again. Although I do want to thank you for hosting Decon, it was great fun and I enjoyed myself, even if palmar did end up seeing through my deceptions. Anyway, despite all the "imbalance" it was a lot of fun and I had a great time. Thanks to decon and everyone who played. Oh, yeah, do you guys want the mafia QT? | ||

Welcome to PTP Mafia, you are the High Inquisitor. You are here to purge the unclean, kill the heretic and burn the mutant. You have the following abilities. 1.) Agent of the Inquisition. Every night you may place a player under surveillance and watch who visits him at night. You'll also sniff out signs of heresy so you'll be informed if he is a evil heretic or a mutant. 2.) Emperor's Justice. You have your holy inquisitorial bolter, loaded with a single blessed bolt shell, which you can use to execute a traitor. Just type ##Execute: Player name to do so. You must include a spiel about how he is a moral threat to the safety of the imperium in the post you execute someone. 3.) Favors from on hight. You have access to some favors thanks to your high ranking connections, once per game instead you may contact the Caudillius Assassins and order them to assassinate someone at night, just PM me who you want killed, and barring special protection they will die. Also once per game you may call upon the Adeptus Arbites to investigate someone, returning their full role PM, but not their alignment. Any night you call in a favor you may not place someone under surveillance. Additional notes: 1.) You have a post restriction, as often as you can you must proclaim your fanatical love of the emperor, as well as proclaiming how suspicious you are of the heresy and mutation that surround us. Phrases such as "the taint of chaos infects this town, I can smell it, like a rot eating away at a carcass" or "In the name of the Emperor, lynch this heretic" are appropriate to your role. 2.) In addition to whatever alignment based winconditions you may have, you must kill the three heretics, which will be randomly determined by the host. You will be informed of the identities of one of each of these heretics each night (so night 1, 2 and 3 to get a full list). There is also a mutant in town, which you must also slay. You must find him on your own, although he will be informed that he is the mutant and must kill you to win. I thought that the additional win-conditions would be a bitch to deal with + I hesitated to add more KP to what was going to be an already kp saturated game. | ||

Was GMarshal lynched since he had gotten up to 4 votes at one point? Again, I made both players reach 3 votes at the same time. I was considered to have majority first as I had 4 votes then 3 while steff had 2 and then 3. So I gained majority when I had four, and never lost it, since no one had more votes than me.

I voted him over Wiggles Day 2 even though Wiggles was also scum. Bum definitely had the more terrifying kp role with his multikill gasbomb. Also for the celebration of this awful game I made a chart how to play a vig in a game with mutiple vigs: I still feel the haphardly shooting of town aligned people almost handed scum the win. Jackal didn´t even shoot at all in the game. How many kills did Kurumi send in? I thought SKs had only 2 kills yet he somehow shot a third time? I know the answer to this, his kill on kita stacked with the mafia kill, but he didn't notice/didn't get the pm that his bullet had been refunded until half way through the day, at which point he decided to keep it secret | ||

The role did change a bit from what I submitted, but the original incarnation would be a bit broken in the hands of the mole. Deconduo, I think the game would be improved if you reduced the size to ~25 people. In a crazy setup like this, the thread is inevitably going to be a mess for the first couple of days, but I think that it would be alleviated somewhat if there were simply less people. But as it is, you couldn't pay me to read through days one and two again. I also think it would be good if you incentivized the creation of more scummy roles, but I'm not sure how you could go about that -- maybe inform a few people of their alignment ahead of time, or create a role that allows for manipulation of the rolepick procedure.
