i just filtered him, and he just posted one policypost and no thoughts about other people.
Why not pressuring him a bit. Can't be bad.

##Vote DropBear

and before anyone jumps on me like:
"wtf he bandwagoned blablabla" - like Curu did in AA; I am NOT one of the players, that bandwagons on anyone random with a bad explanation only to show up the next day like "hey guise sorry what happened, oh you lynched scum - yea well I had stuff to do." I will be there at the end of the day and put my vote on scum.

Random fingering does not help the town.
-_-


it's not random when it's pointed at scum.

you guys are fucking lazy and boring.

Why not just bandwagon everything I say? that's a good plan.

Go read DB's first post in PTP2 where he was town. He's like 1000 trillion times more careful and vague in these opening posts than last time.

Here's his PTP2 opening post for comparison: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewpost.php?post_id=10466682

He's careful to just give advice that cannot possibly rub anyone the wrong way.

read both posts.

notice the different attitude. He's calling shit stupid and has balls in werewolf and ptp2. He's being super-duper cautious this time around.

DropBear! you're here!

Hi, you're scum.

Your first post includes a question to the mods, some random advice that everyone already knows. I think you're just making blanket statements to hide the fact that you rolled red.

And of course Nard's post is hella scummy if you flip town, it means he's trying to set me up as a follow up lynch, which is potentially really good for mafia.

But I'm not sure we have to worry about that, you're the most scummy one in the thread at the moment, and I propose we investigate you with a piece of rope around your neck.

??? Cmon man, you're a better player than this. It's the first post of the game, what do you want from me a 100 page dossier on each member of the Mafia team? I was attempting to generate discussion by bringing up how we force lynches to occur.

Your first post didn't contribute anything. Should I be tunneling you for it? Of course not.

Ok, either you have epic tunnelvision or you're actively trying to stop discussion right now.


Guess which one.

Also, you seem to be advocating lynching lurkers quite heavily. Care to elaborate on that?

Posts like this make me sad. Put some effort into the game.

Palmar/DropBear, I'm starting to believe at least one of you isn't, however this could just as easily be two townies chest-pounding day 1, at which point mafia just sits back and watches the fireworks as one or both get lynched, town wastes time, and they don't have to do jack shit.

Point being, Palmar, we know you want us to lynch DropBear. DropBear, we know you want us to not lynch you. Arguing about it just takes up space.

So, DropBear, if you want us to not lynch you, name someone who you think would be a better lynch target, and why. If no better alternative presents itself, I'll vote for you over a no-lynch, and you're the only person really with votes currently on you, so I highly recommend giving us some reasons why your neck should be spared.

And Palmar... you keep making statements like "nard's totally setting me up he's scum" or "dropbear's scum lets investigate by lynching him" without ANY backup. "Your first post was a question to mods ppl know YOU MUST BE COVERING YOUR TRACKS OMG MAFIA" does not constitute evidence. If DropBear's gonna be active and making plans, I'm inclined to NOT lynch him day 1, because it means one less inactive jackass dragging us down. Plus, the more active he is, the sooner he'll slip up if he actually is scum. Of course, lynching is preferable to no-lynching in 99.99% of cases, so I'll vote for him in the end if nobody else comes forth.

But I want to see a better case from you regardless.

Finally, DB's plan: in a perfect world, it'd be great, but I don't think an unofficial mayor will have the power necessary to break ties of more than one vote. Also, how do we know this mayor will be pro-town? How do we know you are pro-town? How do we know if ANYONE'S pro-town at this point?

We don't really, so I think an unofficial "mayor" will just serve to clog the thread further, will draw med-protects away from people who really need them like blues, and will end up not benefitting town in any major way.



I just want to point out I now think Brownbear is scum too.

The only thing I can think of is in my large post, where I said if DB is gonna be active I'm less inclined to lynch him. This means I'm less inclined to lynch DB right now, NOT that I'm "heavily advocating lynching a lurker". Please don't put words into my mouth.

Well, I read that as any scummy asshole with a plan is going to get a free bye on day 1, because you want to lynch someone inactive?

Or does, the free pass on making plans and blanket statements to avoid the lynch only extend to a specific pool of people?

I think it's kinda scummy to call out Curu on using fuck twice in the same sentence while you have this in your signature...

"life of lively to live to life of full life thx to shield battery"

By the way, BrownBear is the person I want dead today. I'm not sure how to interpret what Foolishness is saying, but at least he's right.

BrownBear



So, I decided to try a new tactic this game. Most towns spend day one arguing casually about policies and then lynch a scummy lurker. This is sometimes effective, sometimes kind of weird. This game I decided to just tear up the thread with some super-awesome tunneling on the first scummy fucker I found, and read responses by other people. There are two people who stick out to me as scummy from their reactions to my tunneling. Namely Sevryn and BrownBear. I feel more confident BrownBear is the scum of the two.

There are quite a few things in BrownBear's logic that really scare me. First off, let's take a look at the post that initially raised my suspicions of him:

If DropBear's gonna be active and making plans, I'm inclined to NOT lynch him day 1, because it means one less inactive jackass dragging us down. Plus, the more active he is, the sooner he'll slip up if he actually is scum. Of course, lynching is preferable to no-lynching in 99.99% of cases, so I'll vote for him in the end if nobody else comes forth.

But I want to see a better case from you regardless.

Finally, DB's plan: in a perfect world, it'd be great, but I don't think an unofficial mayor will have the power necessary to break ties of more than one vote. Also, how do we know this mayor will be pro-town? How do we know you are pro-town? How do we know if ANYONE'S pro-town at this point?

We don't really, so I think an unofficial "mayor" will just serve to clog the thread further, will draw med-protects away from people who really need them like blues, and will end up not benefitting town in any major way.


I immediately called him out on the scum logic in his posts. I pointed out that one wouldn't have to make a big stretch to understand the bolded sentence as a free pass to anyone who was being active in the thread. Which conveniently enough also clears BB of any suspicion.

He also mentions the possibility of two townies just shouting at each other.

The reason this jumps so much out to me is that I used exactly the same logic as scum on day 1 in SNMMII as scum. I pointed out that two loudmouths were probably just townies shouting at each other and then I suggested that the real threat are the inactive people.

Deflecting lynches onto inactives is mafia's favorite way of playing day 1.

BrownBear's defense of this, is that I'm twisting his words. But can anyone honestly says he understands the bolded sentence in any other way than BrownBear wants to kill off inactive people over people who are active, because the active people will reveal themselves as scum at some point.

The only thing I can think of is in my large post, where I said if DB is gonna be active I'm less inclined to lynch him. This means I'm less inclined to lynch DB right now, NOT that I'm "heavily advocating lynching a lurker". Please don't put words into my mouth.

Well, I read that as any scummy asshole with a plan is going to get a free bye on day 1, because you want to lynch someone inactive?

Or does, the free pass on making plans and blanket statements to avoid the lynch only extend to a specific pool of people?


I asked for something of substance and this is what I got?

Oh, you.

Ok, something you've pulled out of my reasoning that really just wasn't there. You're saying I want to lynch someone inactive. Not necessarily true. Implied, maybe, but NOT what I said. Again, you really need to stop putting words in people's mouths.

What I said there, and what anyone who took 5 seconds to think rationally got out of that sentence before you started spewing shit all over it, is that regardless of what I think about DropBear's alignment (and for the record, I think he's more green than not. Scummy, possibly, but not confirmed scum), I want to see people post more. We're on only 17 pages halfway through the first day, which is kind of sad. I want more content. DropBear's providing it.

I'm for lynching any of the semi-actives - that is, the people who are just contributing one liners and sheeping along to do the bare minimum to fly under the radar. Inactives = people who haven't noticed the game's started yet, people in different time zones who are sleeping, or people who don't care about the game. No reason wasting a vote on them - modkills will get them soon enough. The real area where mafia are probably lurking are the semi-actives - the guys who have posted a few times to be able to say "hey, I was here", but haven't contributed anything of substance or worth to the discussion.

That doesn't include DropBear right now. At the very least, he's provoking discussion both about his silly fake-mayor plan, and about whether or not he's red. He's defending himself and providing some alternate ideas. (Although, DropBear, "I will do so if it becomes necessary"? Really? That's not doing you any favors, bro). Right now, my list of semi-actives include: wherebugsgo, hiro protagonist, Foolishness, and JeeJee (when you read his posts, they don't contribute nearly as much as they do ask questions that go unanswered). I'm open to adding more to that list tho.

So let's start talking about those guys! JeeJee is the most suspicious to me right now: He's posted the most, but I see not all that much in his posts... it looks to me as though he's trying to post while not adding anything of value to town discussion. Just a gut feeling, but I still feel a lot better about lynching him than I do DropBear.

Anyway, long story short: You read things out of my post that didn't exist, those things are the entire basis of your case against me, your case against me sucks, gg, try harder.

##Vote: JeeJee


The first sentence is interesting. He makes a point that he did not say what I called him out for, yet he implied it? What's the difference? The mindset he's working in is the same.

I ask that everyone reads the post above carefully, and preferably often. Look at what he's saying. He's basically throwing a one-line accusation towards JeeJee in an attempt to divert the discussion off himself and DropBear.

The bolded sentence is another one of interest. I don't actually understand how he's going to scumhunt if he actively states that "mafia is amongst the semi-actives". Well sherlock, if you tell us that you're going for semi-active people, won't the mafia just stop being semi-active? And note that he himself is definitely not amongst the semi-actives, so he cannot be mafia, by his theory.

This case against JeeJee is basically just a throw-away case, BB knows well enough that JeeJee is not going to get lynched based on this case, and he's happy to look like he's not supporting a town lynch while throwing an off-vote on some random "semi-active".

Re-read his posts.

Look at them from the point of view he is scum, understand what motivations he might have for posting like this if he's town.

I think we have a great lynch candidate here town.

BrownBear is scum

No Palmar, I do not want to blame you excusivly , but look at what this thread is looking like right now. You want either DB or BB dead depending on who is disagreeing with you more (and I do not think either of them are completely certainly Scum)
Other then that , right now basicly everyone seems to have their target but I am actually getting a bit scared that we will not get our shit together until the first night is there.


no worries, we will. If you think I'm scum, vote for me, if not, go hunt scum instead of posting passively about your concerns for town safety.

I think he very well may be. But I think BB has much more damning evidence in the thread than DB, so it makes more sense to lynch him.

Let's take a brief look at the sevryn bandwagon. Did it build up quickly? Has there been any noticeable defense that appears flimsy or false or nervous? I don't think he's scum.

Jackal, who do you think is mafia and why?


I don't think you're actually this bad at this game, so you might quite possibly be scum. The thread has a pretty clear focus at the moment, but you're trying to spin it off as it's some randomness to try and discredit me.

If you were town, you'd recognize what I have done, but I don't think you are.

I think we should lynch Navillus. He jumped on quick Palmar bandwagon with shoddy reasoning ("he is shouting kill DropBear").
Let's recap what Navillus have done:
-say I am trolling / will troll / am useless / anti-town in the first hours of the game all over again
-vote for me just because of that
-unvote me without any reason (besides "You started to contribute")
-tried to coordinate blues (Town KP should shoot lurkers, really good deal for Mafia, because hatters will have useless bombs planted and vigis will waste their only one shot they have)
-disappeared during the most active time of the day.

##vote Navillus
I'll see what Sevryn has done. Palmar is not good lynch today, I feel his lynch is a bit Kavdragon-ish from PYPI I've played.


Re-read the case on BB please. Navillus is not the best lynch we have today.

Agreeing or disagreeing with me has no merit in my conclusions, if you hadn't noticed, almost the entire town disagreed with my initial accusations of DropBear. What I look for is the manner in which people present their opinions and what agendas they are pushing.

You will notice that a ton of people called me out for having little reasoning behind the accusations. It's only the manner in which BB did so that leads me to believe he's scum.

Woah woah, where did I say I had little reasoning? I said I jumped the first scummy fucker I found. That means I had a better reason to believe he was scum than anyone else in the thread at that point. I still think there's very good chances of DB flipping scum, but I think our chances are better with BB.

I still think that meta argument is quite valid. But there is more to go on with BrownBear. I don't think agreeing with me is at all scummy just for the sake of agreeing with me.

Again, its how people say things, not what they say.

But really, it's not my methodology we should be discussing, but much rather who we think is scum.

I see Sevyrn being scummy as all hell. His past games as Town he's looked scummy too, but in a different way. He's not afraid to put his vote on someone and keep it there unless someone brings up a better case against someone else. He defends his vote and attacks people who call his vote a sheep or bandwagon (him vs Lucidity in Kurumi's game).

Here he's retracted his vote altogether, not made enemies with anyone calling him out for scuminess and disappeared forever.

How do you not see this?


Do you not find it surprising that there are no alternative lynches? Do you think the scum team is full out bussing him?

By now you should know that if you feel like lynching me, I'm probably town :p

But seriously, your only reason for being okay with lynching me is because I think you're scum. That is a textbook OMGUS, and I have no idea why everyone seems to think you're so town. You're the reason this thread has been so completely derailed already.


Nah, the reason I want to lynch you is because you are one who really should appreciate and recognize what I've done to make this thread into proper discussion and draw out comments from people.

The fact that you do not recognize this, and in fact you're trying to make it sound exactly the other way, that I have somehow created a bad atmosphere for scumhunting, is especially damning for someone who puts as high value in thread control as you do.

this has nothing to do with balance or other people, it's purely a self-induced-rage.

What happened here on day 1, is that someone presented something I consider a weak case and bad arguments against a player I was 99.8% sure was town (hence my chances post!). I then presented a case against someone I'm pretty damn sure is mafia, yet I did not successfully push my case.

Now to me this means I failed terribly at doing my job on day 1, and I'm just ridiculously mad at myself for letting mafia run the thread like that. Not being able to push the lynch away from someone I knew would flip townie, is the ultimate failure in my mind. If BrownBear actually flips scum, I'll be even madder at myself, if he flips town, I'll feel a bit better, I just don't think he will.

Basically, I let someone with bad reasoning outargue me, which means something is wrong and I need to take a step back for a while. I don't mind being wrong or right, I do mind being unable to do my job.

Thing is, what I want to do now is rehash my entire strategy and approach, because clearly this is bad. But if I do that I'll just be lurking through the game. If GM finds a replacement, it's unfair to you guys that I'm being useless.

I just re-read the entire thing since I cast my vote on sevryn last night, I'm really glad so many townies realized that the lynch was a bad one. I also re-read Rayzor's posts, and I don't think he is scum. The lynch is 2am my time and 4am CET, so if switches are to happen they need to be initiated sooner.

same goes to me, brb re-reading the thread.


I think I've made my opinions pretty damn clear, but I've made some fundamental mistakes this game that stop town from considering my opinions as valid. I think I have laid down the most detailed analysis of someone in the thread that isn't completely based on meta, and I stand by my conclusions in that one.

I'm fine with lynching Mig actually, there are multiple mafia in this game, and unlike sevryn I'd actually give him a 50% chance of flipping red. I'm much more convinced BB is scum though. I don't know Chaoser's meta so the argument made against him may therefore look weaker to me than it should. Hopefully others who know him will correctly push his lynch if they're right.

Just to rehash, this remains my opinion:

So, I decided to try a new tactic this game. Most towns spend day one arguing casually about policies and then lynch a scummy lurker. This is sometimes effective, sometimes kind of weird. This game I decided to just tear up the thread with some super-awesome tunneling on the first scummy fucker I found, and read responses by other people. There are two people who stick out to me as scummy from their reactions to my tunneling. Namely Sevryn and BrownBear. I feel more confident BrownBear is the scum of the two.

There are quite a few things in BrownBear's logic that really scare me. First off, let's take a look at the post that initially raised my suspicions of him:

Posts like this make me sad. Put some effort into the game.

Palmar/DropBear, I'm starting to believe at least one of you isn't, however this could just as easily be two townies chest-pounding day 1, at which point mafia just sits back and watches the fireworks as one or both get lynched, town wastes time, and they don't have to do jack shit.

Point being, Palmar, we know you want us to lynch DropBear. DropBear, we know you want us to not lynch you. Arguing about it just takes up space.

So, DropBear, if you want us to not lynch you, name someone who you think would be a better lynch target, and why. If no better alternative presents itself, I'll vote for you over a no-lynch, and you're the only person really with votes currently on you, so I highly recommend giving us some reasons why your neck should be spared.

And Palmar... you keep making statements like "nard's totally setting me up he's scum" or "dropbear's scum lets investigate by lynching him" without ANY backup. "Your first post was a question to mods ppl know YOU MUST BE COVERING YOUR TRACKS OMG MAFIA" does not constitute evidence. If DropBear's gonna be active and making plans, I'm inclined to NOT lynch him day 1, because it means one less inactive jackass dragging us down. Plus, the more active he is, the sooner he'll slip up if he actually is scum. Of course, lynching is preferable to no-lynching in 99.99% of cases, so I'll vote for him in the end if nobody else comes forth.

But I want to see a better case from you regardless.

Finally, DB's plan: in a perfect world, it'd be great, but I don't think an unofficial mayor will have the power necessary to break ties of more than one vote. Also, how do we know this mayor will be pro-town? How do we know you are pro-town? How do we know if ANYONE'S pro-town at this point?

We don't really, so I think an unofficial "mayor" will just serve to clog the thread further, will draw med-protects away from people who really need them like blues, and will end up not benefitting town in any major way.


I immediately called him out on the scum logic in his posts. I pointed out that one wouldn't have to make a big stretch to understand the bolded sentence as a free pass to anyone who was being active in the thread. Which conveniently enough also clears BB of any suspicion.

He also mentions the possibility of two townies just shouting at each other.

The reason this jumps so much out to me is that I used exactly the same logic as scum on day 1 in SNMMII as scum. I pointed out that two loudmouths were probably just townies shouting at each other and then I suggested that the real threat are the inactive people.

Deflecting lynches onto inactives is mafia's favorite way of playing day 1.

BrownBear's defense of this, is that I'm twisting his words. But can anyone honestly says he understands the bolded sentence in any other way than BrownBear wants to kill off inactive people over people who are active, because the active people will reveal themselves as scum at some point.

Next post, after demanding contribution from me:

The only thing I can think of is in my large post, where I said if DB is gonna be active I'm less inclined to lynch him. This means I'm less inclined to lynch DB right now, NOT that I'm "heavily advocating lynching a lurker". Please don't put words into my mouth.

Well, I read that as any scummy asshole with a plan is going to get a free bye on day 1, because you want to lynch someone inactive?

Or does, the free pass on making plans and blanket statements to avoid the lynch only extend to a specific pool of people?


I asked for something of substance and this is what I got?

Oh, you.

Ok, something you've pulled out of my reasoning that really just wasn't there. You're saying I want to lynch someone inactive. Not necessarily true. Implied, maybe, but NOT what I said. Again, you really need to stop putting words in people's mouths.

What I said there, and what anyone who took 5 seconds to think rationally got out of that sentence before you started spewing shit all over it, is that regardless of what I think about DropBear's alignment (and for the record, I think he's more green than not. Scummy, possibly, but not confirmed scum), I want to see people post more. We're on only 17 pages halfway through the first day, which is kind of sad. I want more content. DropBear's providing it.

I'm for lynching any of the semi-actives - that is, the people who are just contributing one liners and sheeping along to do the bare minimum to fly under the radar. Inactives = people who haven't noticed the game's started yet, people in different time zones who are sleeping, or people who don't care about the game. No reason wasting a vote on them - modkills will get them soon enough. The real area where mafia are probably lurking are the semi-actives - the guys who have posted a few times to be able to say "hey, I was here", but haven't contributed anything of substance or worth to the discussion.

That doesn't include DropBear right now. At the very least, he's provoking discussion both about his silly fake-mayor plan, and about whether or not he's red. He's defending himself and providing some alternate ideas. (Although, DropBear, "I will do so if it becomes necessary"? Really? That's not doing you any favors, bro). Right now, my list of semi-actives include: wherebugsgo, hiro protagonist, Foolishness, and JeeJee (when you read his posts, they don't contribute nearly as much as they do ask questions that go unanswered). I'm open to adding more to that list tho.

So let's start talking about those guys! JeeJee is the most suspicious to me right now: He's posted the most, but I see not all that much in his posts... it looks to me as though he's trying to post while not adding anything of value to town discussion. Just a gut feeling, but I still feel a lot better about lynching him than I do DropBear.

Anyway, long story short: You read things out of my post that didn't exist, those things are the entire basis of your case against me, your case against me sucks, gg, try harder.

##Vote: JeeJee


The first sentence is interesting. He makes a point that he did not say what I called him out for, yet he implied it? What's the difference? The mindset he's working in is the same.

I ask that everyone reads the post above carefully, and preferably often. Look at what he's saying. He's basically throwing a one-line accusation towards JeeJee in an attempt to divert the discussion off himself and DropBear.

The bolded sentence is another one of interest. I don't actually understand how he's going to scumhunt if he actively states that "mafia is amongst the semi-actives". Well sherlock, if you tell us that you're going for semi-active people, won't the mafia just stop being semi-active? And note that he himself is definitely not amongst the semi-actives, so he cannot be mafia, by his theory.

This case against JeeJee is basically just a throw-away case, BB knows well enough that JeeJee is not going to get lynched based on this case, and he's happy to look like he's not supporting a town lynch while throwing an off-vote on some random "semi-active".

Re-read his posts.

Look at them from the point of view he is scum, understand what motivations he might have for posting like this if he's town.

I think we have a great lynch candidate here town.

BrownBear is scum

I have a really hard time believing Foolishness would fail badly enough as to not read the rules, especially considering it's normal for veterans to get killed by a rb/kill combo.

Also, I don't take orders from scum chaos13.

But to be fair, you forget the worst part about Foolishness's actions. Only like 3 posts earlier he accused chaoser or BB of being mafia, and then he's willing to listen to the arguments presented by chaoser just a few posts down.

I still think we should just lynch BB today.

I'm not sold on Rayzorflash, the only thing that's a bit weird is that he apparently seems to know what an ideal atmosphere looks like for town, yet he doesn't know what wifom means. He claims this is his first game, but it really looks like he's either put a lot of work in research, or he's actually played some before.

But if we assume he's telling the truth, I very much doubt he'd have the balls as mafia to post the way he's done, so I'd like to remove him from the discussion as of now.

So, here's the thing I don't understand chaos13:

First off, after re-reading everything you've posted I find it hard to believe you are scum because of this little thing here, from the post where you originally voted for me:

The bolded is probably the scummiest thing about DB at the moment. You say that as if Palmar is confirmed town "I hope you didn't land vigi..."
Any explanation for this?


You see, I don't see why any mafia would ever point this out, because it basically is giving credit to someone who is controversial. Sure, you may not have followed through and voted on me anyway, but it's still something to consider. Some people might actually believe you and consider this a scumslip by DB, and by extension a confirmation of myself.

Thing is there are some things in your posting that make absolutely no sense though. Like are you seriously posting shit like this?

oh, I don't know I'm not exactly a Veteran player, it's only been 3 months since I signed up for my first mafia game ever.

But if you're interested in my opinion, then no, I only find it easier to analyse people I've played a lot with because I better understand their posting.

Foolishness made some correct observations on day 1. In addition he claimed a shot in a way I don't think Scumishness would've done. However, the medic who saved him should absolutely claim at some point, I've not concluded how and when is the best point to claim. I think claiming before this night would be stupid. Perhaps just as this night ends in case he gets shot? I don't know.

As for Navillus. I'd like you to figure out the answer by yourself. Go back and read the difference in tone how BrownBear was pushing his ideas and how Navillus was pushing his. Everything about Navillus screams enthusiastic townie at me. Filter out each's posts and look at the very, very notable difference in attitude.

I actually think Navillus is one of the less likely players in the game to be mafia at the moment.

I want to hear more from Mig. It really bothers me that Jackal is trying to somehow link my alignment to his flip, something he knows very well is ridiculously stupid to do as town, because townies have been wrong before, however it makes perfect sense as scum.

Care to explain this link Jackal?

I see no reason to disbelieve Foolisness's claim, especially with the RBer add-on. If no one gets RBed the rest of the game, he comes under suspicion and Foolishness makes sense as a N1 hit.

I see no reason for the Medic to out himself to "confirm" a guy who shouldn't need to be confirmed at this point anyways.


Hence "I don't know when and how".

The medic should absolutely claim if Foolishness was up for a lynch. Also, if the medic suspected he might be getting shot for some reason, leaving the information with us is good.

If I get RB'd tomorrow does that confirm Foolishness? Hell no... I don't even know what you're saying here. But yes, he's not about to be lynched today, thus it's stupid to claim until at first near daybreak tomorrow, maybe even wait another cycle or two.

People keep talking about Vain: I think shooting him tonight would be an excellent idea. He hasn't contributed squat to this game and doesn't deserve to live.

Meh it didn't seem so obvious to me. All of his actions from early on and the middle of the day were scummy and they were different than his play in the last 2 games I had played with him where he was generally much more passive early on as town. His defense late seemed more townie but even that I thought could still have been plausible scum play trying to last ditch save himself.

What do you think about my case against Dropbear?


I think it's very good, seeing as dropbear is reasonably active and almost always content with speaking his mind when he's town, to the point of trolling the thread. But this time it's almost as he's disappeared until the heat is off him.

It's actually the one saving grace in your play from my point of view. I'll call you bad names on skype if you flip town this game.

I'd like your thoughts on the following players: BrownBear, VisceraEyes, Curu

malicious or accidental mis-reading Erandorr?

Barundar clearly says he's okay with a vote-off between those two contenders, and he also makes it clear which one he'll be supporting.

Also, each role has custom fluff, to deter any silly ideas like name claiming, the mafia may at any point request a safe-claim from me and I will provide it, safe claims can be for any role, from Liquidian to Inquisitor


Still... I don't have a name from TL Mafia, although my role description does mention Ver.

DropBear claims DT and points at supersoft as scum:

There are quite a few things missing and I'm still trying to make sure how to interpret them. Maybe DropBear will be so kind as to provide answers or explanations where applicable.

a) DropBear never once even mentioned Supersoft's name before he claimed the check. Normal play for DT would suggest you immediately start planting it in your posts that your red check is scum after receiving the results, this is done in case you get killed.

b) I have no idea why DB decided to claim the role to out a relatively new scum player. His weight could easily have pushed the vote towards Mig, someone DB apparently considers a fair lynch too. It just seems like DB is playing DT very sub-optimally.

c) The timing of the claim is weird, why not just post it right at the start of the day if he was going to do it anyway. Votes were happily piling on Mig, just breadcrumb your results and check another day.

d) Why on earth would he check Supersoft? I think the obvious DT checks would be the more experienced and outspoken players, or the lurkers. Supersoft has been very enthusiastic in the thread so far, and definitely not afraid to speak his mind. I was getting a pretty townie feel from him overall.

e) Why do you feel the need to push your DT check with an analysis? Like... You know he's red, and you just told everyone else. Isn't that enough?

f) why the hell would you not immediately demand town lynches Supersoft when you claim?

But to be completely fair there are several points that also need considering, and those work in DB's favour.

a) This whole thing seems too elaborate to be manufactured. If DB wanted to simply frame someone red in a trade, he'd probably pick someone perceived as more dangerous to the scum team, or he'd just fake a dt check on some heavy candidate.

b) Supersoft does have some questionable content in his posts.

I don't like jackal's plan. I'm not on the hunt for confirmed townies, but scum.

Worst case they're lying, and since no one counterclaims DB, Foolishness is scum. It looks like an insane gambit from scum point of view. Occam's razor tells us they're both town.

I hope our vigis shoot scummy lurkers, I want to lynch scummy active people.

Thing is, Hiro always lurks hardcore as scum and contributes almost nothing. The reason I don't think he's going to change that meta is that it's worked very well in the past for him. This game he seems very open and speaks his mind quite freely.

Yo palmar you still down with lynching bb?


I would very much want to lynch BrownBear, but I'm not sure I can build the support for that case today.

Of the other candidates there are some for points and some against.

Hiro Protagonist has either very much stepped up his scum play, or I'm right and he's town, I don't want to lynch him today.

xtffcasdio is much more scummy than hiro. But there is a certain impulsiveness in his posts. I can't exactly put my finger on it, but he's not gone below the "fishy" category for me yet.

Which leaves Mig. The entire argument against Mig, is that he has done very, very little fingerpointing that matters this game. Mig is one to usually tear up the thread as town and find scum left and right. He says he's fed up with mafia at the moment, but I mean, it's huge wifom if he's actually telling the truth in that regard.

There are other daming things in Mig's play. He has stuck down a total of 3 fos's in this game. One on Sevryn, where he called him lolscum, only to back it off later and try to switch the town to lynch chaoser. I don't know if Mig ever thought he could sway town with this switch, but it sure didn't look like he was pushing it.

Lastly he wrote an analysis on DropBear, who has... well... played questionably throughout the game. I don't really mind this case, what I mind is the fact that Mig was wrong again, and seemed to be going for a target that was easy to hunt down.

As I said much earlier in the thread, I have a fuckton of respect for Mig as a player, and given that respect, I don't think he can have done the things he has done unless he is either completely and utterly fed up with the game, or just not town-aligned.

I find the latter more likely.

It's based on meta, once again, wherebugsgo. I have played with hiro as scum, and against him when he was scum, and the only way he's posting like he's doing now is if he has drastically improved his scum play since those games.

The games I'm referring to are BC's AA and SNMMII.

Thing is, meta isn't always reliable, good players can and will change up their meta, but there is always... something. I don't know, it just feels like he's too... jumpy/impulsive/arrogant to be scum this game.

But do form your own opinions.

if you actually have a hammer, feel free to punch hiro in the face if it's your best read.

I'd suggest Vain and Nard as other options. Maybe even chaos13, who has done literally nothing to help town this game. I find it really contradictory that he keeps ranting about town atmosphere being bad, yet has not taken any visible action to improve it.

Also, why do you basically declare me town? Do you know my alignment?

hiro looks worse than Mig to me, I'd much rather him be the lynch today. I'm trying to explain to you why, you respond with "Curu doesn't want to lynch Mig, so let's lynch Mig."


What do you want me to say? I have read both arguments, there have been numerous other points about Mig, not only mine. Neither are in no way connected to any of the other tunnels I've had the entire game. I came to this conclusion after re-reading the posts of all three. I don't even understand what your gripe is.

So here's the case on chaos13.

It's based majorly on three things in his play, so I'll just quickly summarize them up now:

a) He complains about bad town atmosphere but does nothing to improve it, in turn becoming part of the problem
b) He's basically abstaining from voting, both on day 1, and now again on day 2, by throwing his votes on random people that aren't in danger of being lynched.
c) He hasn't actually pushed a single lynch hard the entire game.


First off, let's look at his day 1 performance. This is basically what he did. He attacked me for disrupting town atmosphere, but he did nothing to try and remedy the "problem". All he did was throw down the vote on me, and complain some more.

He never really pushed my lynch either, he kinda said he wanted to do it, but never commited to forcing town to do his bidding. Now let's also look at one major slip up on day 1.

By now you should know that if you feel like lynching me, I'm probably town :p

But seriously, your only reason for being okay with lynching me is because I think you're scum. That is a textbook OMGUS, and I have no idea why everyone seems to think you're so town. You're the reason this thread has been so completely derailed already.


Here's the deal. He says he thinks I am mafia, but the bolded sentences really looks like he believes that my accusations are genuine, the first one is a joke, the other one isn't. If he thinks I'm scum, why on earth would my accusations be genuine.


Chaos13 ends day one with his vote on me on the basis that he thinks I am scum, and yet he fully understands how bad off-votes are for town. He also did the razorflash switch, I don't know if it's to absolve him of responsibility or what, but I don't like it.

The second post I'm going to look specifically at from chaos comes in wake of the DB mess on day 2. He does have some questionable content over the day, just read it up and think about it.

This post is the reason I'm inclined not to believe you. I can't see a genuine DT with a red check feeling like they will have trouble getting their red check lynched. This is a guilty mindset.

The order of events I would like to see happen right now
1. Lynch DB
2. If blue flip, vig supersoft
3. Suddenly, information - lynch mig.

Going back to read all of DropBear's posts before I move my vote to him.

I've never seen a townie be so adamant about defending their town read before. Regardless, I'll drop him for today and focus on what's relevant.



This plan he's giving us is basically the perfect way to continue as mafia. He already knows both supersoft and dropbear won't flip scum, so hell, let's suggest we kill them both!

This is of course based on the assumption they aren't scum, but we need to work with something.

I think chaos 13 is our best lynch today

Didn't You refuse to lynch hiro based on meta ? Honestly , what the heck is this . Hiro will die anyway , so just accept it .


What the hell are you talking about Kurumi, this makes no sense. I said that sometimes I mistake it, but I think right now it's over the top, and this isn't just meta, look at the case I built against him. I'm starting to think you may not be as town-aligned as I had hoped.

You are providing a huge distraction to the town. You're almost helping the mafia by splitting up the votes like this. I don't care if you don't like the prospects, you spent all day doing nothing about the people who were the top candidates, don't pansy out now. At the time, I didn't like either of the 1st day candidates but I sucked it up and voted rather than push for a last minute switch against my favorite candidate (Mig).

I think most everyone agrees that at least one person of the 3 (Mig, hiro, xtfftc) is mafia. To ignore that is asking to get lynched/shot. We have 3 people who we have good analysis for, who have spent time defending themselves. To toss all of that out the window at the last second could not be more anti-town.

Not to mention, when either of these flip we have good leads. If Mig is mafia I have an incredible lead on his team (Dropbear confirmed the link between Mig and other players in the game) so I'm not bluffing. People have pointed out the connections between hiro/xtfftc and other players. Where does chaos13 fit in? No where. Take your garbage somewhere else.


Trying to get a player lynched because I like him as scum is not anti-town. It would be if I just went afk, but I'm not going afk until I either abandon this attempt, or successfully pull it off. I hope everyone who is town aligned does the same.

Mig is the person I'll be voting for if this switch to chaos13 fails. I didn't like sevryn on day 1 either, but I voted for him because we need the lynches. I will do the same again, but I'm going to try to do the right thing first.

Best introductory post ever.

Also... what the fuck, town. I guess at least we lynched somebody... nah, fuck that, WHAT THE FUCK TOWN.

I'm taking a second look at Palmar tomorrow. His chaos13 plan was one of the most retarded things in the history of TL Mafia.

Reverse psychology time. Every time I tell you idiots someone is town, you go ahead and lynch him. So here is a list of townies.

80-100% chance of being town

BrownBear is town
Chaos13 is town
Erandorr is town
Vain is town
Nard is town
Curu is town
Kurumi is town

You should never lynch into this list, because that'd be stupid.

Honorable menitons go to:

Cause you say things in a manner no one would listen to!

If you actually said things in a reasonable manner, we'd probably value your opinion. Yesterday I disregarded what you were saying because your manner seemed scummy to me.


Yes, I am aware that if we lose this game it's probably very largely my fault, because I haven't been able to secure the trust required for town to listen to me when I explain we're about to lynch a townie.

What I'm slightly annoyed at, is that while I'm playing terribly, and really, I'm more mad at myself than anything else, there seems to be no one else ready to put in the work to actually think about the game at hand. It should have been pretty obvious that Hiro and Sevryn were being lynched because they were being a bit derp.

But someone already put it right in the thread that it's generally townies who are derp, not scum. I think Hiro was playing a pretty good town game, better than he ever has. He was blatantly town in my eyes. Now I can't fault people for not seeing things I fail to properly explain, but I hope that when you guys re-read his posts, you'll understand.

I would have preferred a no lynch over killing hiro.

Problem is, for some reason this town is more concerned with not being wrong, than with actually being right. Like people are afraid to think independently and read the thread objectively. The hive mentality this majority lynch spawns is extremely mafia favored, at least with a town that is so afraid of being made fool of.

If we have the chance, I'd suggest to our vigilantes to focus on shooting active people tonight. The reason for this is that we severely lack information, so instead of shooting the scummiest lurkers like vigis usually should do, I'd ask you to shoot scummy active people.

You believed hiro's Vet claim. I don't think your judgment this game is that great. Trying to introduce chaos13 as the new lynch candidate 2 hours before deadline was also a blunder. If anyone is not thinking, it is you. Based on the previous game I played with you I expected more from you... That's worrying me.


I believed his Vet claim because I believed he was town. That's not bad judgement. I can't actually tell the difference between vanilla townies, medics, dts, vigis and veterans. Asking that of me is absolutely ridiculous. I didn't think townies would lie about their roles, but who cares. I knew he was not scum, so I don't care what he claims.

I can, with reasonable amount of confidence, tell apart town-aligned people and scum-aligned people.

And I already apologized, I simply wasn't perfectly available to try to do the switch earlier. As I already promised, the switch had no negative effect on town. It was not a blunder, however much people trying to discredit me make it want to look like one.

I'm actually just going to believe Mig's claim of hating mafia games at the moment, so I'm not going to consider him scum. I know the last two games he's played in must've tilted him a bit.

If he's using it as an excuse, we'll find out later. And I'll tunnel him every game from there on. I just don't think Mig is dirty enough to play like that, if he was scum he'd be defending him with in-game reasons instead of emotional reasons.

You're a joke. If you expect something from palmar, you have to give him the chance to prove himself. Consequently you have to vote for his targets. You were wrong two times now. How can you claim that palmars judgement isn't that great, while your judgement isn't existing.

One additional word to your accusations towards me: You didn't see that hiro was green, because you're just not smart enough. This is nothing personal or whatever, but if you don't see that the wagon on hero came out of the nowhere and builded up exceptionally fast, with noone reasoning his decision, I can't help you.


Okay. I think this post convinced me lol.

Come morning I'm voting you.

Well I'd be down to vote you too, cause your actions over the past day have definitely eroded my town opinion of you. I think you're scumbuddies with supersoft.

Both you and supersoft have attempted to gain towncred by landing on the right side of the voting both days. SS was more obvious about it but you've been spearheading these distraction efforts too. You BOTH are claiming we're all too dumb etc etc to see that hiro/sev were town when in reality hiro played like absolute trash and Sevryn's mistakes made him seem like a pretty good target day 1 too. Yeah, we were ultimately wrong in our assessments, but I stand by the reasoning. You can filter my posts and go back and see my analysis of hiro, for example.

Honestly though, you and supersoft jumped several levels all at once in scumminess, ESPECIALLY in that last 2 hours vote switch you guys attempted.


I'm scum because I'm right, lol

I'm not saying town is stupid, I'm saying it's my own fault for not explaining my arguments in a good enough manner to prevent town from doing stupid shit.

Basically, at this point you're either town hiding the fact that you're not objectively reading the thread behind claiming hiro and sevryn are bad, or you're scum trying to do look like you're doing exactly that.

I have been leaning town on you for a while, I simply think your reasons were wrong. Being wrong is fine, being okay with being wrong is good town play, but we also need to be objective instead of emotional. Read the entire thing again with the knowledge you have now. You should find things a bit more clear.

I'm not giving up, and at some point people will listen.

You're not scum because you're right.

You're scum because you were right when no one else was.

There's a big difference. Care to explain why, if you knew all along hiro was town, you didn't reason me and others out of voting him? Care to explain why you would pick a lurking lynch target in the last 2 hours of the day to focus your attention on, when we already had 3 candidates to lynch, ALL with decent analysis on them? Care to explain why you would seemingly just throw out 20+ hours of information and work just to muck up the last 2 hours with a vote on chaos13 (lol) instead of Mig or hiro? We could've used that time to discuss, instead we lost it all scrambling to try and get a vote on an actual lynch candidate most of us had spent hours analyzing.


I'll break it down for you:

Care to explain why, if you knew all along hiro was town, you didn't reason me and others out of voting him?


I did, I tried to get the lynch away from him, here's one of the posts. I already said multiple times that knowing Hiro Protagonist this was not the way he'd ever play as scum. This is based on meta, so it's harder to explain, and in turn for you to understand.

Read my posting history, I state multiple times that I don't think hiro can be scum.

Care to explain why you would pick a lurking lynch target in the last 2 hours of the day to focus your attention on, when we already had 3 candidates to lynch, ALL with decent analysis on them?


We had two candidates, Mig and Hiro. xtf wasn't a serious contender for that lynch, or I'd probably in the end have liked him better than the other two. I already said multiple times that I did not have the time to build the case, and it simply did not occur to me to try the switch until 2 hours before the lynch.

I don't know why people keep fixating on that, because it's not like that thing was in any way detrimental to town.

Main reason I tried it is because I don't believe either candidate is scum.


Care to explain why you would seemingly just throw out 20+ hours of information and work just to muck up the last 2 hours with a vote on chaos13 (lol) instead of Mig or hiro? We could've used that time to discuss, instead we lost it all scrambling to try and get a vote on an actual lynch candidate most of us had spent hours analyzing.


What did you want to discuss, which townie to lynch? I'm not here to make sure everything goes to plan, I'm here to find and kill scum. How does it matter if you spend hours analyzing it when it's wrong? I said multiple times that being wrong is okay, it's perfectly fine. But once you realize you were wrong, you need to step back and re-read the thread.

Every time a townie gets lynched, you need to re-read the thread, instead of lynching the next player who must be scum because he wasn't wrong like you.

LOL

You believed the vet claim, of all things. Hiro's logic was so convoluted I have no idea how anyone could've believed he actually was a vet. He didn't even provide flavotext for it.


He could have claimed a town-aligned planar dragon and I'd have believed him.

why?

Because I believed him to be town aligned, and I had no idea what his role was.

I can't believe people are actually giving me shit for only being able to deduce his alignment, not his role.

Vigilantes, whatever you do, do not listen to this. Unless you're an amazing scumhunter (there's a few of you out there, so if you're one of them feel free) you are more likely to hit town. Then you have not only eliminated a townie, you have eliminated an actively contributing townie, which is BAD.

If you feel compelled to shoot, hit lurkers. Even better, hit a scummy lurker.

DT's check Palmar. Hell, vig him. He's still stirring this game up into an anti-town environment, so even if he's town it would be of more use than hitting a lurker.


shut up scum.

Or if you're town... you're amazingly bad.

Do I have to go back to find the post?

He wrote a big post about simply being fed up with mafia. I believed him because I've played quite a bit with Mig, enough to know that it's very unlike him to try and use excuses like that if he was scum. He's much more likely to be genuine and be town.

In addition, his posting dramatically improved in the latter half of the last tday.

but you don't find his change of heart to be scummy? Suddenly starting to put extra effort into posting after having "genuinely" stated that he's burned out – is that part of his meta too?


That's exactly what I'd expect him to, he's Mig, he's a nice guy and a fair player, he doesn't want to cause the town to mislynch him, so he mans up and posts some good stuff.

That's what I think.

I'll probably just write a big post before daybreak about all the things that I think, then I'll just let you guys decide if what I say will ever become something to listen to.

I am more sure of chaos13 being mafia than anyone else in this game.

He cannot possibly be this bad at mafia, I've actually seen him play really good town games, but as per my analysis right here:

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewpost.php?post_id=11038314

I suggest we lynch him tomorrow.

You're basically claiming a vigilante and your target 11 hours before the deadline.

If somehow you're not scum and supersoft is (the chances of this are very low) the scumteam will just block the shot with a doctor or roleblock you.

Unless you have a bigger plan (trying to draw a roleblock... or something... I don't know...) this is basically a terrible way to shoot.

Yeah I know.

I'm generally active, but not like I've been this game. Thing is, I don't yet know how to convince an unresponsive town without PMs. This is the first time as town where I want to be listened to and get completely ignored. In all those games I've played recently I've had my way, and town has done very well for it.

For some reason, mafia influenced or not, this town is different than others. People here refuse to listen to reason, and lynch based on what, but not on how. The ridiculousness reached new heights when people started accusing me of being scum for the crime of being right.

I'll take a step back, I think I've made my thoughts pretty clear, I've built my cases and submitted my reads. The rest of you can do what you wish with them, I'm not posting unless necessary now.

GG everyone, I wanna apologize for two things.

a) Most importantly, anything I say within the game should be considered "role-playing". If anyone takes it personally, then I'm deeply sorry, I got a bit frustrated there for a while because I'm super-competitive. So yeah, sorry about my attitude. I'm available to talk things over if anyone feels mistreated.

b) Sorry for my terrible play this game. This is the worst game I've played as town since my first 3 games where I was learning.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Go get them town!

Good luck, see you next game.

Curu scumslipped like a boss and no one noticed but me, thankfully mafia had Kurumi on their side. I guess I have been spoiled by playing with good town players who bother to work for their victory instead of expecting to be carried, and thus I thought it didn't matter how I acted, because people would most certainly be able to tell the difference anyway.

This was not the case during this game, people were stuck with their heads up their asses and did not want to read objectively, and thus it's my own failure not to adapt my play to the bad logic that worked with this town.

Here is the list I wrote on day 2, remember that later during the day foolishness and dropbear got "confirmed"

But this game was different, people simply did not want to work for it, and I completely failed to adapt my playstyle to this much more naive town than before.

I form opinions, and I then try to objectively read the thread after that, but it's hard. I'm not afraid of being wrong, and I've quite often been right. Maybe this is the game where I'm wrong on all accounts, but I expect others to be able to pick that up.

Also, why do you basically declare me town? Do you know my alignment?


The only person on town's side that had decent reads early was Foolishness, other people like xtf and wbg played alright-ish once they got the chance to pull their heads out of their asses, but that was just too late.

Personally I have a huge issue with people who seemingly don't care enough to put any thought into their playing. I had major confusion issues with chaos13 this game, because I couldn't simply write off his terrible reads as nooby, because he's not a noob, he's actually pretty good at this game, but this game everything was so off I simply couldn't imagine any other reason but him being wrong intentionally, while the truth was he simply failed to read the thread.

I'm going to bold this, because I failed to do this once when I was a newbie, and you all need to learn this lesson.

Whenever a townie dies or gets confirmed, especially through a lynch or vig shot, re-read the entire thread with this new information in hand.

Foolishness died and had so many nuggets of wisdom. I died and left you with basically the entire mafia team uncovered, but still you lynched people who were obviously not scum. It's so important to read the thread and not focus on looking for "scummy things" or "scumtells". That's what gets uncareful townies lynched, like Hiro and Sevryn. Anyone should've been able to tell they were town, it is how I initially pinned Curu as scum, he's very good at mafia and thus couldn't possibly think the Hiro and Sevryn lynches were good ideas. It was also the case against Mig.

This game is just the pinnacle of what happens when you mix pride with lazyness, you end up with a shitty, shitty town that's unable to do anything constructive. On day one we had a mafia against the wall, but we lynched a very, very obvious townie (like, what mafia would so blatantly bandwagon me?) because I was too proud to change my approach, and town was too proud and lazy to listen to my arguments and actually read Sevryn's posts and deduce the mindset he was in when he made those.

Thing is, I'll admit it, I'm getting more lazy with posting in a political way, by now I expect people to just listen to what I say, when I'm town and they do it usually ends up very well for town, but sometimes people just don't, and it's hard having to convince the same people every game. Some of us are just never going to be any useful anyway, VisceraEyes has almost never had a correct read, yet he seems unwilling to step back and reassess his approach. Kurumi is a troublemaker in his own, and giving him a gun was the worst thing that could happen to town. chaos13 has been having a streak of terrible reads (cosmic horror, xliv etc) but he'll bounce back once he lets go of his pride, because he's actually good.

I think both xtf and wbg have the potential to be good players, same with supersoft, and if hiro protagonist plays town like this again he can easily elevate himself to a good player too.

And then there's of course balance to consider, with DropBear and chaos13 derping like mad, who were supposed to be some of town's best and most experienced players there was very little to work with for town.

Mafia had 4 really good players, Curu, Mig, BrownBear and chaoser, while town really only had three, Jackal, Foolishness and me.

Anyway, I guess this game can act as a collective lesson to us all. So many new or new-ish people got their first taste of being completely fucking wrong time and time again this game, so I hope it allows them to break down and re-build their approach to play better mafia in the future, loads of fairly new players in this game that can go on to be good.

As for myself, I'll never again take being listened to for granted, I thought Foolishness's "If Palmar is mafia he's on drugs" would be enough, but again, head in ass syndrome ruined reads for town. Whenever someone like Foolishness says something like that, and then becomes confirmed, people better fucking listen.

Well played mafia, and again, sorry for my own performance this game.

GG

@Chaos13 - yeah, as I repeatedly said I'm not going to (and I haven't) repeated this same style of play. It's very easy to pick out mafia like this,but it's terrible for making other people read the thread. Let's call it an experiment. I think I've found a more balanced way of pushing my ideas, and I'm using those in more recent games. It's slightly harder to find scum, but it also doesn't destroy town atmosphere.

I am fully aware of the shortcomings of this approach, which is why this is the only game I employed it and the only game I will employ it. This does not work as an excuse for people who didn't read the thread though.

And to answer your last point chaos13, is that when everyone is cool, calculated and logical, the mafia can be exactly the same. It's very, very easy to fake an analytical mistake, but it's surprisingly hard to fake an emotional response. By stirring things up, if you're able to then disconnect you from the situation, you can get miles better read on people, because things posted fast like 1-liners, arguments, shouting etc, is a lot less thought out than analysis, and thus much easier to read the true motivations, as they cannot be properly hidden in the time-frame it takes to respond to this emotional style of play.

Erandorr, thanks for telling me things I know.

Palmar's absolutely right about the logic vs arguing thing. I didn't get a lick of suspicion for my giant long "analysis" posts but when I went toe-to-toe arguing with Palmar about hiro, I actually scumslipped and called Palmar Town.


Well that, and I know for a fact you're not bad enough to actually believe the shit you were saying.

Eh, I'm tunnely/wrong/stupid a lot of the time as Town too. I told Mig over and over in XLIII that I had the perfect meta for scum and wouldn't be lurking as scum when he suspected me in that game cause I was borderline lurking.


Difference is that you accept logic as town

I mean, this information is useless to anyone but myself, but I can usually tell by your reactions if you're scum or town, which is great for me.

You're certainly a great player, now you've proven to be both good at scum and town, so don't worry too much about it. It's like syllogism and myself, I simply can't hide the fact I'm scum from him. If syllo dies n1, I'm scum.
