However, I wish bum would talk more. He's posted literally six times since he replaced in. This doesn't entirely feel townbum to me.

I missed this. I submit my kill during the day. However, it doesn't occur until the following night. Do you still not believe me?
I feel kita is scum at this point (after rereading) but I'm not entirely sure why. Admittedly, I haven't contributed too much myself. His last five posts lack anything significant in regards to the game other than a commentary on what had happened at night.
Again, this is my first time playing with most of these people so I apologize that many of my reads have been off thus far.

I am suspicious of foolishness but I will have to put vote elsewhere based on what I read. I've been following what kurumi says, but I've deduced that he isn't trying hard enough regardless of what his role is.
Amber, heist and sandroba are probably town as well. I think people who voted BC are a bit suspicious, with nisani at the top of the list.
##Vote nisani201
I wouldn't vote foolishness. And how exactly do I incur this penalty? It's hidden right?

I have been reading through Nisani's past games and have found something peculiar about his attitude this game. Look at some of his posts from real time mafia (he was town aligned that game):

I'm voting for Draserk because he is full of contradictions and slip-ups, NOT because of spam.
That is all.

Cthsazsa's analysis on Drazerk seems to be correct and I definitely think that he is scum. And thus, I place my vote. ##Vote: Drazerk Notice the confident attitude. Yes the majority of his posts are short and he provides little explanation, but he's exhibiting a confident attitude about what he thinks. He blatantly calls the town stupid before casting a vote based on contradictions, which went against the town consensus at that point. Contrast this with his posts this game:

Ugh, whatever. youngminii is probably scum, because he, you know, KILLED A TOWNIE ON THE SPOT.
##Vote youngminii Just tossing around his vote like he doesn't care, and only because youngminii killed a townie. Nothing confident, nothing about contradictions and slip ups. He also voted for BC at the same time when everyone else was placing their votes on him, and spent the rest of the day afk with the occasional post about nothing.
In real time mafia, he also had a few long posts, including a defense. And as we are all aware of he's yet to have any post longer than 3 lines this game.

- Number and length of posts
Nisani201 has 36 posts in the thread, 24 of which are from after the Day 1 post. His mean post length is 2.5 sentences, his mode post length is 2 sentences, and his maximum post length is 6 sentences which he reached 2 times. Just keep these numbers in mind as I continue this analysis.
Those numbers mean anything, and I don't understand why you would waste your time doing all that math and counting. Quality over quantity is what matters. Just because a post is short doesn't mean it can't be useful.
- Contentless posting
Here is an example of one of Nisani201's better posts:

In this post, he simply agrees with sandroba's thoughts that syllogism is town and Cthsazsa's analysis, which showed that Drazerk was scum. He does not provide any new content. I defended Syllogism with some thoughts on his behaviour. Does that not count as new content?
His other 6-sentence gem:

I'm voting for Draserk because he is full of contradictions and slip-ups, NOT because of spam.
That is all.
He provides one tiny piece of advice: not to kill spammy players, which is only half-right: lynch scum, shoot spammers. He re-references Cthasza's analysis and defends his vote, but he doesn't give any evidence of Drazerk's "contradictions and slip-ups."\ Right now Viscera is under fire because his analysis was supposedly a repeat of what others have said. It's implied that the contradictions and slip-ups are in Cthsasza's analysis.
These are Nisani201's two longest posts, and both of them are simply parroting what others have said and stating the obvious without adding any new analysis to the table. Completely wrong, as I've stated in the red.
- Active lurking
Here are some examples of what the average Nisani201 post looks like:

This is serious business. The reason why "fluff" is so frowned upon is because it makes it hard to navigate through the thread. Fluff takes space from important things like analysis, defense, and possible scumslips. This post was at the very beginning, so it's stupid to say that it is a "fluff" post.

I wonder what motivation GMarshal has putting a new player like Palmar (if you'd like to see an example of his 'stellar town play', may I direct you to PTP?) in the 'Vet' side of that list. He's certainly no vet as far as I'm concerned.
Palmar is not in this game, he submitted /out soon before the game started. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=237124¤tpage=6#109 Though this ended up not being true, it was new content that I was bringing attention to the other players. They later thanked me for telling them.

These are all bits of information that are not useful to the town in any way and questions that can easily be answered by reading the OP. He makes these posts because he doesn't want to have to post content, but he doesn't want to seem inactive.

I'm pretty annoying, so I'm going to pressure ##Vote: Sinani201 into being active because I know how much time he spends sitting at his computer and I don't want him to die from lurker KP his first game.
If someone dies from lurker KP, do they get banlisted? You're already voting for me? First off, I am not Sinani201. I'm Nisani201. Second of all, if you want me to make a post, you could have asked nicely. I don't have anything to contribute yet. I'm reading every single post, and when I feel like I have enough information, I will contribute.
First, I pressure him into posting and he responds by saying that he will contribute when he has enough information. Let's see what he means by contribute:

This is his "analysis" of chaos13, where he points out that he is either Mafia or Medic. This contribution does not help town at all. The fact that he could be on either side is useless, and pointing out that he could be Medic helps Mafia, as GMarshal pointed out.
It's not analysis, it's a comment, a contribution if you will. If I were trying to help the Mafia I would have been able to tell them in PM.

He is referring my supposed scumslips which were posted by sandroba. He refuses to take a stance on my play. He is acting extremely safe and neutral, which is a scummy trait.
[red]It's Day 1, so evidence can't always be 100%. I also don't want to be put under fire for taking a too aggressive stance on topics.
A more recent post:
On June 30 2011 00:40 Sinani201 wrote: Drazerk has posts that give off scumtells. For Viscera, it's a lack of posts.
I don't understand why the bandwagon against Drazerk is a bad thing. A lot of people are voting for him. That just means Cthsasa's analysis against him was good. It's not OMGUS, it's just agreement.
He says that a lot of people are voting for Drazerk because Cthazsa's analysis was good. I assume he was talking about himself as well when he said this. He subtly explains that he is voting because of the analysis, not because he actually thought that Drazerk was scummy. This is a major scumslip. He is basically saying he found a good analysis to hide behind. The point of an analysis is to convince other people to vote for someone. Cthazsa's analysis convinced me to vote for Drazerk.
Finally, he says this in response to Drazerk's analysis of me:
On June 30 2011 04:09 Sinani201 wrote: You're trying to draw attention away from the large amount of votes you have accumulated. We have pretty much established that you are scum so why should anyone trust you?
This is a scummy post because Drazerk's analysis of me was good because it could have started some healthy discussion, and as scum, Nisani201 would want to stop all discussion, which he does, which proves his scumminess. My comment on the analysis did not take away any potential for discussion. I was simply stating my opinion. If anyone else has opinions on it, by all means tell us.
That took an hour and a half to write. Whew. My vote will stay on VisceraEyes today, but tomorrow, I urge all of you to vote for Nisani 201.

I now realize that you need the page number AND the post number for this to work properly. I'll be placing my vote on him in the hopes he responds. Otherwise we should put a Bisu in him.

out of curiosity, what does "put a bisu in him" mean, apart from fulfilling your TLPD quota?

Hmm. Well I have to say that Foolish is not being helpful. He hasn't contributed anything of substance all game really, except lately with his case for Nisani.

Alright, I've been speculating. He started doing it with his first post, so I don't believe it's a penalty. Immediately I thought it was a "palmer bro-fist" situation, but when redff or whoever started TLPD'n everything, F said "thanks for infinite lives" which I've thought through and I'm 75% sure this was a white lie. Nothing wrong with hinting that you have vetty stuff me thinks, it's not consequential because if you dont have vet stuff, your dead, and if you do, then it doesn't change things.
Now I think he can state certain players to activate certain things. His first posts were all really obscure players who happened to have common words as their names. Later on, as in just recently, he started randomly saying the J-word (don think it matters if i dont TLPD-ize, or if us TLPDin anything actually does anything) and placing a B-word on people. I don't even want to quote foolish's stuff but its all there using filter. I think B is either a bomb or a check me thinks, he doesn't hide that hes referring to nisani.
I haven't made a role this game, but if I thought to utilize TLPD in my role, I'd do something similar to what I mentioned. Do you want us to try to figure out what you do exactly without inccurring your penalties or do you not want us to figure it out at all

Far out, but until we start seeing the results of these actions or can make logical correlations between unclaimed events (nobody claimed the hit on supersoft iirc) I wouldn't put any stock in it.

I completely agree with Varpulis. Unless you (or the person you replaced, rather) made Foolishness' role and that's along the lines of what it is... Hmm.
However, if that is the case you should probably claim it outright. As it is now it looks like a wild conspiracy theory and will only lead to further confusion and make you look more suspicious in the future.
