If that person is paired with a relatively easy read, (damn I wish Mig was in this game hahaha) then I think we should lean more toward the person who is easier to read, for obvious reasons. The two player unit is very good for town. It provides us more information than we would normally have, as there is more behavior and there are more posts to analyze. Or at least, I hope this is how it turns out. If town starts succumbing to inactivity (as is the norm lately) I'll be rather pissed. | ||

Two posters means twice the risk of mistakes, I would have liked to say that means it´s twice as easy to find scum, but Town make stupid scumslips too. I think we´ll have to take it on a case-by-case basis. Actually the best way of playing this kind of mafia is splitting up your team. If only one of you knows your role, then only one can make mistakes. The only thing you need to do together is analysis of the other teams. To prevent any possible mistakes, must the one who knows the role only paraphrase what his teammate says. Ofcourse by the second night the one who knows should tell the one who don't (a few nights later depending on the size of the game). There is an obvious easy mistake to make here: the role should always be hidden, even it's town. What in the eff Pretending you don't know what your role is, is something that scum like to do. You're advocating people split their team up so your team makes less mistakes (townies should not be afraid of making mistakes, but scum should be). Town don't strive to prevent all mistakes. Town strive to find scum. That's it. On the contrary, it's SCUM who strive to prevent mistakes. They don't want to be caught. So...not only is your "plan" unworkable, the things you are suggesting we should do are what scum would do, not town. ##vote Team Edward | ||

Except I'm telling you straight up it's more complicated than that, and you should understand it simply because you and ON were that two headed monstrosity of confusion last game. All game long I remember talking to people (including Mig, Foolish, Kav) who kept saying, damn Jacuzzisplatt is scummy as hell. It was primarily because of you. I saw what they were seeing, but I didn't believe you two were scum because ON posted very reasonably and I talked to him for quite a bit on IRC. You, on the other hand, couldn't have been scummier. I think basing our reads on both players is necessary, but with the caveat that if we have conflicting reads on the two halves we need to take the one that's easier to read into account. Ex. if an incredibly easy-to-read player A looks scummy while his partner B (who is much harder to read) looks town then we should give more weight to the scum half. | ||

I would take your reads and reverse them; I think hyshes is probably scum (with chaoser) and I can't read prpl atm. And why do you think hyshes is scum? His plan? I'm not disagreeing, mind you, I just can't think of a reason why scum would post such an insane plan in the thread, rather than in the scum QT, unless he really *didn't* read his role PM, which would be patently ridiculous. We've seen many townies produce super anti-town plans in the past, which is why I'm hesitant to judge him just on that. I'm actually decent at reading chaoser, which is why I'm reserving judgement, I should be able to figure chaoser out a lot faster than hyshes, whom I have no experience with. So yeah, I'm jotting him down as a null read till I see more. But by all means, pile on the votes, I'm intrigued to see how that whole team reacts. I agree with you, once chaoser starts posting we'll have a better idea. However, the issue is not the plan about reading PMs. The issue is the fact that he's concerned about covering up mistakes, or preventing mistakes. Townies don't actively try to prevent or cover up mistakes; they're not concerned with getting "caught" (oh I caught a townie! yay!). Rather, scum should be afraid of getting caught. There were no pro-town aspects to his plan. Sure, plans can be bad, but the merit of the plan is not what we're talking about. For the most part, I don't give a flying shit about 95% of plans. (ex. I don't care for your jailkeeper idea; I'm with sandro on that) However, I do care about motivation. A plan could be bad, but if it's pushed forth with town motivation I don't care, I have the information I need, and what matters is that we stuff the plan in the face so we don't have to deal with it. On the other hand, if a plan is anti-town and it seems to be pushed forward with an agenda that we need to be concerned of, I get suspicious. | ||

![]() Anyway, let's get into this. First of all, I like some of the ideas that have been put forth since I've been gone. I also like some of the reactions, since they obviously indicate a decent level of involvement in this game. However, I still think the hyshes/chaoser is a good bet for a lynch today, and I'll elaborate on this in a bit. First, some background: On November 04 2011 03:55 sandroba wrote: You are wrong GM, sorry. Lynching is only good for town when it hits scum. The process is good for town regardless, but going ahead with it is only favorable depending on results. From an optimization stand point regarding the setup I guarantee you town's chances are higher if we prolong the game by one night. I think sandro is right that lynching is only good if it hits scum (for really obvious reasons). As Kita pointed out, we have this: On November 04 2011 03:59 kitaman27 wrote: 7v2 Mislynch 5v2 Mislynch 3v2 LYLO 7v2 No lynch 6v2 No lynch 5v2 Mislynch 3v2 LYLO Essentially we are trading 1 mislynch for 48 hours of disccusion, during which nobody is threatened because they know there won't be a lynch. The odds of hitting scum statistically are unfavorable every day. That doesn't mean you don't try. Show nested quote + I will do my part to ensure we no lynch today, unless someone comes up if a more convincing case Or you could try to come up with a more convincing case yourself. We agree the prpl one is bad, how about the other 6 teams? HOWEVER, I highly disagree with this: On November 04 2011 03:55 sandroba wrote: I will do my part to ensure we no lynch today, unless someone comes up if a more convincing case Sandro why are you so passive? You should be working toward getting a lynch, not ensuring that we no-lynch. We have to lynch two scum at some point. Sitting around and advocating a no-lynch takes pressure off scum, because while a no-lynch guarantees that town will not get lynched, it guarantees scum won't either! What do scum have to fear if they know that the town is not seeking a lynch today? It's not beneficial for town at all unless we have lynch candidates we're discussing. The no-lynch should be employed, in my opinion, by putting votes on a suspicious person, and then removing them when it's clear that they have reacted in a townie manner under that pressure. So far, hyshes and chaoser are under very little pressure. I voted for them, and I think one other team did. When chaoser came in, he didn't say very many things to establish he is town. He attempted to defend his partner but kinda failed and got really mad: On November 04 2011 03:10 chaoser wrote: Thanks for summarizing my stance and posting nothing here. Also, are you trying to say that you know what hyshes' motive are in posting that? I didn't realize you were psychic. How do you know for a fact that hyshe wasn't trying to draw mafia out? How do you know he's NOT bad at making plans? How do you know what he was thinking when he posted that plan? Have you played with him before? Are you talking to him in PMs? Oh right, you're not and you've never played a game with him. What shitty logic. From what I have experienced, townies get hostile and mad when defending themselves, but chaoser is an exception. As town he is generally calmer than this, and he uses reason. In this instance, of course we knew hyshes's objectives. Hyshes wanted to be hailed in the thread (as he said himself.) What purpose does this serve? Well, if he's scum, it takes a lot of early game pressure off him because he submitted a "good plan" and then isn't receiving pressure for not providing much later on, or even purposely misleading town. Right now, hyshes has been MIA for a while, letting chaoser take the pressure for a bit. I imagine they will switch turns again soon. I already posted why I think hyshes's post came off with scum motivation, so I'm not going to bother repeating that here. Regarding the No-lynch Plan I give the hyshes/chaoser team a very good chance to flip scum. As I said earlier, I think a no-lynch would be good in the case that we're gunning for a townie. However, I sincerely believe that we are not dealing with that right now. I imagine that even if hyshes and chaoser aren't scum, we stand to gain a lot just by looking at how the vote unfolds. Day 1 information is vital, and with a good candidate for lynch we should only avoid lynching them when we're absolutely certain the information lost will be outweighed by the benefit of having that extra townie, and the extra day. So, to answer this: On November 03 2011 18:02 supersoft wrote: Show nested quote + On November 03 2011 12:00 chaoser wrote: On November 03 2011 11:52 redFF wrote: On November 03 2011 11:08 chaoser wrote: On November 03 2011 09:56 supersoft wrote: okay nothing interesting came up, yet. one thing i want to point out. if you're town, save all your conversations with your teampartner. if you're getting lynched, these conversations may provide something that speaks in favor of you.

I thought we already covered this topic in PYPI NICE TRY SCUM WHO DOESN'T WANNA DO EXTRA WORK I really hope you're kidding about this. I'm 100% serious about my point. Are we really going to try to exploit every single mechanic in place in a game to try to avoid the actual point of a mafia game which is to analyze and use scum hunting skills? Not to mention this doesn't even work. Look at Kita escaping lynch for a hilarious amount of days because of his "PM convo" with Radfield. It took me two days of setup to finally convince people that he was mafia and should be voted for. yes okay i agree. my "plan" is a bit lame. it's a process that uses the game mechanics in an unfair way. but i guess, posting the logs to avoid a lynch will happen anyway, unless it's forbidden. no further discussion needed. (do the extra work, scummers!) okay next point is GM accusing team Viking. Prplhz is from denmark and hes no anglistic expert. i dont mind some minor mistakes and i do them, too. i know you say he's doing that interpunctuation mistakes on purpose, and you say that a townie has no reason to be hard to understand. i think however, that scum has no reason to be hard to understand, too. therefor... @wbg: who is the scummiest team in your eyes right now? Hyshes and chaoser. Sandro is scummy because his plan makes sense but his motivations and behavior do not. This is how I felt about his plan in PYP:I (and he was scum there) but he's so passive again. At this point there isn't enough information on him; the information we have, IMO, is conflicting and unreliable. PYP:I was a PM game, this is not, and so I don't feel comfortable using that meta, but I think it's a potential lead nonetheless. GM I thought was scummy earlier, but his recent reactions have made him look more town. His posts are like what I would've expected from him as town. If you look at SMG where he smurfed and was scum, he backed off from the spotlight a little (probably because he was afraid of being caught) instead of boldly going out there and just throwing his opinion into the thread. GM as town doesn't back off when he's faced with confrontational or conflicting opinions. You can see that here. Finally, you need to seriously learn how to use meta. I find it hilarious how people think meta carries one to one between PM and non-PM games (and that's just one example; tons of things can affect a person's behavior from game to game) | ||

Hyshes has been active in the newbie game over the past few hours but not in here. So, he's around. But he's kinda "cooling off" in here. I find that pretty strange. | ||

Remember, more time is always good for town, and giving the lynchee time to dump information can only be good. Leaving the player at L-2 ensures we avoid any "accidental" lynches. Lynch minus two is three votes. Are you advocating that we just split the vote once someone reaches 3 votes?? I don't trust that this will be a great idea, particularly as people are often not available when you need them, and vote-splitting is great for scum. While we'd only need two more to lynch, that's not very comforting either. In such a situation we'd basically need to last-minute voteswitch if we think that we have a townie at 3 votes. Otherwise, we take the risk of no-lynch. Of course it opens us up to scum manipulation too. Scum can throw in a late vote "to stop a no-lynch" and then bam we lose a townie. I meant two votes to lynch, so if a player needs 7 to lynch, stop at 5. This policy would only be in effect for the first 36 or so hours of each day, but from personal experience, nothing sucks more than lighting bandwagons ending the day 3 hours in because everyone agrees someone is "scummy" and then seeing them flip green. GM are you not understanding what I'm saying? A person gets lynched at 5 votes. Lynch minus 2 is 3 votes. gm thinks this is a 12 player game hahahahahahaha Oh, frag, I forgot its a 9 team game. Oops.

I think we´ll have to take it on a case-by-case basis. Actually the best way of playing this kind of mafia is splitting up your team. If only one of you knows your role, then only one can make mistakes. The only thing you need to do together is analysis of the other teams. To prevent any possible mistakes, must the one who knows the role only paraphrase what his teammate says. Ofcourse by the second night the one who knows should tell the one who don't (a few nights later depending on the size of the game). There is an obvious easy mistake to make here: the role should always be hidden, even it's town. What in the eff Pretending you don't know what your role is, is something that scum like to do. You're advocating people split their team up so your team makes less mistakes (townies should not be afraid of making mistakes, but scum should be). Town don't strive to prevent all mistakes. Town strive to find scum. That's it. On the contrary, it's SCUM who strive to prevent mistakes. They don't want to be caught. So...not only is your "plan" unworkable, the things you are suggesting we should do are what scum would do, not town. ##vote Team Edward Dumb doesn't mean scum.

I have no idea of hyshes alignment, his NotChezinu plan is derp, but hey, its a plan. You on the other hand seem to be immensely annoyed at being called scum. Why this reaction to being called out? It looks like someone might have something to hide... Answering WBG's question about spelling and grammar, since when does a townie have a motive to make reading his posts harder and making him less likely to properly convey a point, making people more likely to disregard his posts? You seem to be all over the place atm, GMarsh. I think that's a pretty convoluted reason to think someone is mafia, especially in light of a much simpler and robust reason for hyshes being mafia. I would take your reads and reverse them; I think hyshes is probably scum (with chaoser) and I can't read prpl atm. And why do you think hyshes is scum? His plan? I'm not disagreeing, mind you, I just can't think of a reason why scum would post such an insane plan in the thread, rather than in the scum QT, unless he really *didn't* read his role PM, which would be patently ridiculous. We've seen many townies produce super anti-town plans in the past, which is why I'm hesitant to judge him just on that. I'm actually decent at reading chaoser, which is why I'm reserving judgement, I should be able to figure chaoser out a lot faster than hyshes, whom I have no experience with. So yeah, I'm jotting him down as a null read till I see more. But by all means, pile on the votes, I'm intrigued to see how that whole team reacts. This. Its a new player with an ill-thought out plan. As for Sandroba's No-Lynch day 1 plan, it has merits but as has been pointed out you shouldn't declare a no-lynch at the start of the day as all the extra scumhunting time is just wasted. The only exception to this would be a mylo situation where a mislynch would be a loss and a no-lynch would give an extra round of night actions. What's with people today and putting words in my mouth? | ||

First of all, I'm okay with lynching these two teams today: Team Edward Team red21 I liked GM's analysis of red and kita. I was suspicious of them myself, and I was planning on stating something about them now, but GM ninjaed me while I was sleeping. I haven't yet talked to Radfield, and I think he's going to be away for a bit, so I'm not sure what he thinks yet. Now, we have a PC claim and an interesting situation here. I don't like claims. However, I'll hold off for a bit until I can get some basic information from kita and red on this. Yo team red21, who would you check tonight and tomorrow night? | ||

I've mostly ignored all your posts up till this point (short of reading them and laughing at them, mostly) However, claiming doesn't automatically make you town. The fact that you even imply this screams agenda to me. There's a 50% chance of there being no PC. Even if there is a PC and you aren't the real one, the real PC wouldn't counterclaim because that would out him to mafia! Your claim does nothing to establish you as town and anyone who naively decides you are more town because of it is probably not thinking very clearly. Just as context, kita claimed tracker in LoTR to save himself and wasn't able to provide sufficient information about his checks. He claimed he had tracked chaoser but wasn't able to provide who else he had tracked. If you have no potential checks at this point in time, and seeing as it only benefits town by publicizing them, you're probably scum who is gambling by fakeclaiming. | ||

I strongly oppose lynching Liquid, I oppose lynching SS and Switzerland though I think we should still consider them. GM hasn't done anything that is blatantly scummy (to me) yet, so I'm not suspicious of his team quite yet. Switzerland = iGrok pretty much and he hasn't done much of anything, but that doesn't mean he's scum. Team SS is the most suspicious of these three (Switzerland+Liquid+SS) and that's primarily because of how sandro's plan is two-sided and it's really unclear as to what he's pushing. With all of these teams, we have players who will contribute if they are town and will probably get shot if they are right. So, let's not lynch them and do the work of scum for them. Therefore, I still think team Edward is a good bet for today. | ||

Everyone needs to go back and reread the entire thread right now, in light of the new information we have. Come daybreak we'll probably have another townie dead (unless we have baller protters) and we need to consolidate tomorrow to lynch scum. If we cannot do that, we must no-lynch, and a day 2 no-lynch will probably not be very useful for us unless we are thoroughly confused. Activity is imperative. We can only find scum if everyone is active and present. Choose to disappear for extended periods of time and I will levy a heaping dose of suspicion on your heads. These teams/players, in particular, need to go back and reevaluate everything, since they were the most convinced that Team Viking was scum: On November 05 2011 07:29 Palmar wrote: The teams voting for Viking at the deadline: SS Liquid Nipple Edward Switzerland | ||

There is an obvious easy mistake to make here: the role should always be hidden, even it's town. It was heading in the right direction, but you would have overshot your destination by a few hundred miles at the rate you were running. "This kind of mafia" is the key phrase that we should consider in our analyses. That said, orthodox scumhunting is at it's finest here. I had certain suspicions rummaging through the thread, so I was very happy to have GM a step ahead of me. I was fairly certain redff was scum (not so much kitaman). I'm very curious about how their claim would have fleshed out, but with no counter-claim, and the 50/50 risk of being dead wrong as scum, I can't really reach any gamestate where mafia would do that. And that early. Holy shit, you guys had like 2 votes on you. Split milk I guess. Forumite and prphlz was a poor lynch choice, I think there were better options available.

Remember, more time is always good for town, and giving the lynchee time to dump information can only be good. Leaving the player at L-2 ensures we avoid any "accidental" lynches. Lynch minus two is three votes. Are you advocating that we just split the vote once someone reaches 3 votes?? I don't trust that this will be a great idea, particularly as people are often not available when you need them, and vote-splitting is great for scum. While we'd only need two more to lynch, that's not very comforting either. In such a situation we'd basically need to last-minute voteswitch if we think that we have a townie at 3 votes. Otherwise, we take the risk of no-lynch. Of course it opens us up to scum manipulation too. Scum can throw in a late vote "to stop a no-lynch" and then bam we lose a townie. I meant two votes to lynch, so if a player needs 7 to lynch, stop at 5. This policy would only be in effect for the first 36 or so hours of each day, but from personal experience, nothing sucks more than lighting bandwagons ending the day 3 hours in because everyone agrees someone is "scummy" and then seeing them flip green. GM are you not understanding what I'm saying? A person gets lynched at 5 votes. Lynch minus 2 is 3 votes. gm thinks this is a 12 player game hahahahahahaha Oh, frag, I forgot its a 9 team game. Oops.

Town strive to find scum. That's it. On the contrary, it's SCUM who strive to prevent mistakes. They don't want to be caught. So...not only is your "plan" unworkable, the things you are suggesting we should do are what scum would do, not town. ##vote Team Edward I felt like that was a backwards conclusion to make. I know bugs is a universally aggressive player, so seeing him draw out this line, from what I can tell, a newer player, seems like play focused in the wrong direction. And then this drops of the map. Incredibly odd. I concluded that radfield convinced him it was a bad idea to pursue this, but radfield's posts have not impressed me. I'm mostly suggesting that people take the "Interactions" philosophy to heart when they analyze. There is no direction to point blues in with the known info, so please don't try. Guess you didn't read the thread very well, did you bum? I pushed Team Edward ALL DAY yesterday. I thought they were the best lynch yesterday. It never "dropped off the map." It's just dumb people who drowned it out with their retarded idea to lynch team viking, and the GM-team red21 interaction that got the PC claim out there. Second, Radfield supported lynching Team Edward too! Guess you didn't see that, but let's reiterate his words for you, shall we? On November 05 2011 02:28 Radfield wrote: sorry bugs, not on my comp. and yes, lol at asking who the cop is checking ![]() Unless there is a counter claim, we're not lynching kita/red. With a 50% chance of the cop being in the game, it's a ballsy claim, and done earlier in the day than a desperate scum move typically would(unless you're iGrok). If you are the Parity Cop, and kita/red are lying, you absolutely need to claim. It is by far the most info a parity cop will net us. That leaves us a whole slew of teams on the table. I think Team Edward is still by far our best bet. Team Switzerland is a good bet at this point as well(Bum&iGrok), but I don't think adding another team to the mix is the best play right now. Likewise Team Nipple. Team SS is best left for another day in my eyes. On November 04 2011 22:42 Radfield wrote: Well, a lurker lynch at this point means You Kurumi...

Sandro + Decon: Anyone voting for Sandro+Sevyrn needs to reaffirm that they still think this is the best lynch. I don't think it' a terrible lynch, as Sandro is rubbing me the wrong way. However, he is a solid player and I'm confident he will either start to make sense or start to look very red. Kurumi + RoL: Lurker Lynch. Kurumi has used a lot of words and very little content, while RoL has used no words at all.. I'm not sure why you are playing the upset card here though Kurumi.

I'll admit that I'm mildly skeptical of you actually discussing much with your partner considering the circumstances, but that's neither here nor there. I assume you have plenty to contribute to the lynch discussion at this point. Chaoser and Hyshes: A good lynch target at this point, though I'm willing to be swayed. Hyshes: I do not think Hyshes is scummy because he came into the thread and proposed a bad plan. In fact, that is NOT what happened. Hyshes did not propose any plan at all, because his 'plan' was obviously impossible long before he brought it up. Yet this did not stop him from speaking at length about it. Does this make him scum? Of course not, but certain people here feel that proposing bad plans is a townie trait(certainly not always true) but that is most emphatically NOT what happened. Since then he has contributed nothing to the lynch discussion, and has played the newbie card several times. Chaoser: I fully agree with his views regarding posting logs. The game of Mafia should be played as Mafia. That being said I also recognize how supersofts plan was abusive to town. Town players generally do not react angrily to abusive pro-town plans(see PYPI where everyone who was really upset about Jimbo smurfing IRC was scum). However, I'm willing to write that off as a null-tell at best. What I am NOT willing to write off as a null tell is the fact that Chaoser has almost no contribution outside of his own defense. In PYPI Chaoser came alive with posts to defend himself and very little else(as scum). He is doing a similar thing here, as well as giving himself excuses for future inactivity(advisory capacity). To be perfectly clear Chaoser, I do not think you are scum because you are defending yourself, simply because you are only defending yourself. What are your reads Chaoser, who is scum, who is town, who should we lynch today. Show me that I'm wrong.... dazzle me... Yeah, that definitely makes it seem like Radfield was opposed to us lynching chaoser and hyshes. Like I said earlier today, I'm not going to tolerate people being illiterate during this game. | ||

I am referring to you pushing hyshes without more then what radfield surmised in that last post of his. Those posts by radfield are exactly what I'm talking about when I'm saying "unimpressed". I'm used to radfield being more helpful and conclusive, and I'm not seeing that here. He hasn't given me much reason to put him red, but it's odd play and it should be noted. I don't understand. I pushed hyshes because his post seemed mafia-motivated. Only scum want to appear "good" and try to minimize mistakes to the greatest extent possible. He even said that he wanted good attention from his plan, and it was clear he had nothing else to contribute. I don't care what his plan was, and I never did. I cared and still care only about how he behaved. His behavior is not consistent with what I think a townie would do. A townie does not appear, post something like that, then disappear when the heat is turned up. That's exactly what he did. In addition, the only other significant thing he did later was start the bandwagon on prpl/forumite. He also showed that he wasn't reading people's posts.

Chaoser is absolutely correct in that forgeable logs can loose Town the game, I just don´t agree with reflexively throwing away tools that might have helped us. This still doesn´t excuse how Chaoser and hyshes has acted in other respects, Chaoser taking a backseat while his partner suggest Anti-Town plans. I thought Chaoser would have stepped in if he thought hyshes was making a fool of himself, instead he waited until he was called out. Chaoser was actively lurking while his team was being accused, that doesn´t make sense, unless he was weathering the storm, hoping that hyshes would be excused because of him being new.

First thing first As usual there is no excuse for lurking, don't do it and you won't have me lobbing for your lynch. Seriously, 2 players per team should mean a more than decent level of activity, you aren't going to get away with 2~3 posts per cycle unless they are an outstanding, wall of text, analytical set of three posts. So post, transparency and information means we have a greater chance of success. Second thing (this should *not* be a point of discussion, as what I am about to talk about is too general for us to really talk about, I just wanted to make sure it was said). Because there are no vigilantes, if we have a jailkeeper he should be using his protect/roleblock offensively, that is "protecting" scum in an attempt to roleblock the kill, rather than going after the most outspoken townies and possibly roleblocking a power role. This style should encourage activity (scum no longer want to risk being lurkers if it might make their kill fail) and with the possibility of a medic in play scum still cannot afford to shoot the top players. Other than that there isn't that much to say on the setup until we get later in the day and can talk about dt lists and such. My lurker policy remains the same as always, and yeah, that's about it. I am against lynching lurkers. First, the setup is really small, so we should delay the game and make it as long as we could. Scum, unless terrible or really overloaded with RL stuff (they shouldn't join game then, but hey it happens) won't lurk. Remember, scum are those MIDDLE guys, not so active or inactive to draw attention. "But it sounds so cool Kurumi... go get them Yourself, let me derp my way to LYLO" Yeah I know Towns on TL are quite damn lazy and with all the info coming out at the beginning of the game, quoting guides by either side and stuff like that and forget all of it after D1 lynch but.. I am not going to forget, I wish to play my best this game. "But Kurumi, Mafia has a Role Cop!" With 1 blue, they will have hard time finding Team with it. With 2 blues, we will get enough protection/information to retaliate strong enough. Remember, the more time Parity Cop gets, the stronger we are, because he can slowly confirm people. I think we shouldn't worry about Mafia Role Cop too much. Lurker lynch is a bad idea. We either no-lynch or lynch the scummiest fuckers out there. With a mislynch, Mafia ALREADY got their KP per cycle! If we don't get a good protect/block or we just don't have roles for it, 2 people are dead by Day 2. Meanwhile, Mafia Role Cop has checked one of the roles. That means, 3 out of 7 people roles are known to Mafia, another lynch and it's 4 out of 5, if the (only one) blue survived to this time, he will be killed during the night, no matter the lynch result. Summary: Lurker lynch is a terrible idea, Mafia rarely lurk without any special plan. No lynch does not put us behind: Our blue will survive longer this way. Lynch = scummiest person, remember!

Also I know you've been following the newbie game and hyshes play in this game pretty much matches up with his play in that game. And that is, he's playing in a way that's totally foreign to us, specifically because he's use to playing a different form of the mafia game where the meta is so different as to be alien. False. Just on numbers alone, hyshes is not playing like he did in the newbie game. hyshes has committed several times more effort to the newbie game than to this one. 12 game-relevant posts so far in this game, with at least half of those being one liners (or just in general rather useless) We've had 21 pages of posts in this game, or around 440 posts. 12/440=2.7% of the total posts. There are 18 players total, so if you merely divide the proportion evenly you should get 5.5% of total posts per player, on average, or 24 posts. Hyshes has half of that. Hyshes had four times this many in the newbie game; 48 posts, and it hasn't lasted much longer either, only one more day. There were about 350 posts in that game between when it started and when he died. Newbie game of 12 players, hyshes has 13.7% of the posts by the end of day 2, when divided equally among all 12 players it would be expected for him to have around 8.3%. In addition, the overall content of his posts was better too. Don't believe me? Read the filters yourself. newbie mafia filter hyshes filter (this game) We can't really discuss an ongoing game in here though, so that's all I will say on that. | ||

How can you even compare numbers when this game is a team game when that one isn't? Just by the pure fact that I am able to fill in for him when he is unable/uncomfortable/don't know what to do when posting makes it a moot point to compare post numbers. Not to mention you're not looking at the actual situation of how he posts and instead looking at generalization of "relevant posts" which is still bullshit. In this game, he posts a bad plan, and starts getting pressured, he shuts down and stops posting, not even defending himself. I had to come in to defend. In that game, he gets a case put together and then voted on by Harbringer at a time when Drem had 3 votes on him, including a vote by the main other influential player. He immediately shuts down and posts "Yeah sure, lynch me." For the rest of the game he posts that this martyr is a smart plan/move that will help town. Pretty much all of it is one-liner or useless Show nested quote + I'm not retarded, and this aint stupid play either. It's the only play i got left to have a possible chance on a town win. I'm just kinda hoping it will open your eyes. I'm just offering good working material here. for that purpose, i'm willing to do a sacrifice here. Just a sample of what he wrote right after being voted on (each separated part is a different post) No emo here, just not up for your shitty logic. I'm going to get lynched today, that's settled. Please lynch toad when i flip green the next day. Yes i'm from EU but its only 20:47 atm. I have just no freaking clue what to say. Seems that i can't follow your logic, and you guys can't follow my logic. I guess this is the ending point. Nahh, this shitty logic was easy to explain in a few lines. The rest of your shitty logic would take me too long. And i'm not even good at explaining things. When he's finally pushed to actually post something on Toad, he posts mostly one liners while quoting him. All of them were simple statements saying the same thing which is the general sentiment of "Toad doesn't care about which townie dies" Show nested quote + "Nice idea.. select a lurker to get a free kill as mafia. And again, the refer to another game where he was town." "Ofc he's also a fine target for you. You don't care wich townie dies." "Trying to get an easy hit on a townie without proper argument." Can't tell if you're being obtuse or scum >_> I'm not going to bother arguing about this anymore, you're clearly not willing to listen to reason, or read properly. The number of times people keep mentioning that hyshes "just posted a bad plan" is starting to piss me off. It was never about the plan and never will be. | ||

You mentioned that your no lynch plan was an attempt to get reactions from people and that people made some very good points that you agreed with, yet at the end still advocates a no lynch. You said it was because we claimed as PC. Could you explain how that makes any sense at all? The only reason for a no lynch was to hide the identify of the PC. RoL, are you aware the game started?

We didn't "casually" mention it. The reason team edward didn't get lynched is because team Edward started the bandwagon on team viking, GM started the pressure on you/red, (which led us to wasting a whole bunch of time) So, for the last time, it isn't our fault that this town is dumb and team Edward did not get lynched. | ||

At least one of those teams is scum, and I think Edward provides the best chance of finding scum there. @GM, bum thought I was scum, and iGrok thought the sandro team was scum. Other than that there isn't much to go on. | ||

If this were a PM game you'd probably be trying to guilt trip us into not lynching you. In PYP:I you tried changing the lynch to heist when it was apparent you were going to get lynched. It would've worked, too, if we hadn't decided on node instead. In this game, your team chose to push team viking (and it succeeded). You guys STARTED the bandwagon on them. lol. | ||

Having reread everything that happened before lynch I think I'm content with this: ##vote Team Edward You started the huge bandwagon on team viking, and you guys nearly got away with it. I really don't think it'd be a very good idea to let you guys get away a second day in a row. | ||

No one thought you were mafia yesterday at all, you were off the grid in terms of suspicion. So why would town derp along into voting for you again? Cause most of them seem to be pretty trusting of you. Though now your shitty logic for trying to get me lynched is starting to show. There's no reason whatsoever for if I was mafia to NOT kill your team seeing as how you would probably be the most prominent at getting MY team lynched today. The suspicion on you is mainly from using SHITTY LOGIC and Radfield being inactive. Having the not die part is just icing on top. Any vote puts pressure on someone. That's why we have a thing called pressure voting! And there you go again with more WIFOM. "If I were mafia I would've done this and this!" You're using the fact that we didn't die to simultaneously call us scum AND call yourself town. And you say I am using shitty logic?

To expand on this point, in a small game like this, especially since it's so active, I very much doubt that mafia will be lurking or even inactive. Those are tactics that mafia teams of 6 use for late game survival when it's Day 8 and there's a sea of lurking/inactive players for town to work through. Nice use of terrible logic to basically exonerate anyone who is lurking/inactive and take pressure off them. So now we're less likely to suspect lurking players like hyshes, sandro, kurumi, or RoL.

I don't use inconclusive evidence to find scum, unlike you. iGrok dying is not evidence for you being scum any more than it is evidence for me being scum. You're scum because you've used a lot of bad logic (which I have repeatedly pointed out, unlike you), you've pushed terrible cases, and, most importantly, you've contradicted yourself. Behavioral contradiction is the number 1 way to catch scum, IMO, and you've displayed it at least twice within the past 30 minutes alone. | ||

I'm saying that isn't true, since your team certainly didn't shoot me or anyone else who was a threat to you last game. Nice contradiction. lol, once again, bringing up something that happened in the previous game in a situation that was completely different from this game and in a setup that was completely different as well. I can paraphrase the plan for you if you want though. You claimed mafia and wanted alliance, we didn't know if you were actually mafia or not. You were being extremely suspicious and we weren't sure if you were townie trying to trick us, mafia trying to actually alliance, or mafia trying to trick us to gain town cred. So I decided to leak to Radfield that you were mafia with our conversation. During the end of our conversation I tried to make you change your kill target to prphlz, the person I told Radfield I was going to protect. This was to make it look like I was actually medic trying to prevent a death and also outting a mafia to Radfield, gaining me town cred. I told him to lynch you but I was hoping he would have dreamflower shoot you. You dying my town hands would have been best for us. If you were methman anything, townie gets killed shooting you. If you were townie, hurrah, we made a townie shoot a townie. If you were mafia, hurrah, we confirmed foolishness was actually a mafia and we would have started negotiations. There was no way your death would have been traced back to us since Radfield would claim his townie circle shot you. I recall you saying after you died that you thought I was town laying a trap because of how I messaged you after foolish did. In that case, if mafia hits are always so predictable, why didn't you shoot me? If you are really town then you should see the glaring issue here. You can't conclusively conclude why mafia would shoot someone, because no one knows for sure why someone would get shot except for mafia themselves. The simple fact that you're trying to spin me and Radfield being mafia because we didn't get shot but iGrok+bum did is highly suspicious. Indeed, there are still gaping holes. For example, iGrok suspected team SS. Using your logic, is team SS scum too then? Lastly, you don't respond to half my posts or points. For example, this one: If a no-lynch was in favor of mafia yesterday, why are you not suspicious of team SS or team nipple? | ||

The main thing making me lean towards chaoser scum right now is the fact that hyshes is totally gone and that is unexpected considering what chaoser said previously. Also RoL needs to post.

Finally, here's a compilation of the chaoser+hyshes case, so it's easier for people to read. Also, big apologies for destroying a couple pages of the thread; I've been trying to reduce my postcount since XLV but it's obvious I haven't learned yet.

Two posters means twice the risk of mistakes, I would have liked to say that means it´s twice as easy to find scum, but Town make stupid scumslips too. I think we´ll have to take it on a case-by-case basis. Actually the best way of playing this kind of mafia is splitting up your team. If only one of you knows your role, then only one can make mistakes. The only thing you need to do together is analysis of the other teams. To prevent any possible mistakes, must the one who knows the role only paraphrase what his teammate says. Ofcourse by the second night the one who knows should tell the one who don't (a few nights later depending on the size of the game). There is an obvious easy mistake to make here: the role should always be hidden, even it's town. First thing hyshes posts in the thread, and it basically suggests we should minimize mistakes at all costs. As I pointed out repeatedly, (as did prpl+Forumite) only scum want to minimize mistakes, and only scum are afraid of being caught. Townies should not be afraid of making mistakes because they really have nothing to fear. Townies can go out there and state their opinions freely; they do not need to be overly careful and they do not need to be deathly afraid of making mistakes. Certainly, townies need to exercise judgment and restraint when they are wrong, but they never need to be afraid of being wrong. The behavior of hyshes certainly pushed the notion that he was afraid of being wrong, since he even posted afterward that he expected to be hailed as a genius for his plan. Lastly, two more things hammered in my suspicion of hyshes. One was this post, the sole other "contribution" hyshes made to this game.

Chaoser is absolutely correct in that forgeable logs can loose Town the game, I just don´t agree with reflexively throwing away tools that might have helped us. This still doesn´t excuse how Chaoser and hyshes has acted in other respects, Chaoser taking a backseat while his partner suggest Anti-Town plans. I thought Chaoser would have stepped in if he thought hyshes was making a fool of himself, instead he waited until he was called out. Chaoser was actively lurking while his team was being accused, that doesn´t make sense, unless he was weathering the storm, hoping that hyshes would be excused because of him being new.

First thing first As usual there is no excuse for lurking, don't do it and you won't have me lobbing for your lynch. Seriously, 2 players per team should mean a more than decent level of activity, you aren't going to get away with 2~3 posts per cycle unless they are an outstanding, wall of text, analytical set of three posts. So post, transparency and information means we have a greater chance of success. Second thing (this should *not* be a point of discussion, as what I am about to talk about is too general for us to really talk about, I just wanted to make sure it was said). Because there are no vigilantes, if we have a jailkeeper he should be using his protect/roleblock offensively, that is "protecting" scum in an attempt to roleblock the kill, rather than going after the most outspoken townies and possibly roleblocking a power role. This style should encourage activity (scum no longer want to risk being lurkers if it might make their kill fail) and with the possibility of a medic in play scum still cannot afford to shoot the top players. Other than that there isn't that much to say on the setup until we get later in the day and can talk about dt lists and such. My lurker policy remains the same as always, and yeah, that's about it. I am against lynching lurkers. First, the setup is really small, so we should delay the game and make it as long as we could. Scum, unless terrible or really overloaded with RL stuff (they shouldn't join game then, but hey it happens) won't lurk. Remember, scum are those MIDDLE guys, not so active or inactive to draw attention. "But it sounds so cool Kurumi... go get them Yourself, let me derp my way to LYLO" Yeah I know Towns on TL are quite damn lazy and with all the info coming out at the beginning of the game, quoting guides by either side and stuff like that and forget all of it after D1 lynch but.. I am not going to forget, I wish to play my best this game. "But Kurumi, Mafia has a Role Cop!" With 1 blue, they will have hard time finding Team with it. With 2 blues, we will get enough protection/information to retaliate strong enough. Remember, the more time Parity Cop gets, the stronger we are, because he can slowly confirm people. I think we shouldn't worry about Mafia Role Cop too much. Lurker lynch is a bad idea. We either no-lynch or lynch the scummiest fuckers out there. With a mislynch, Mafia ALREADY got their KP per cycle! If we don't get a good protect/block or we just don't have roles for it, 2 people are dead by Day 2. Meanwhile, Mafia Role Cop has checked one of the roles. That means, 3 out of 7 people roles are known to Mafia, another lynch and it's 4 out of 5, if the (only one) blue survived to this time, he will be killed during the night, no matter the lynch result. Summary: Lurker lynch is a terrible idea, Mafia rarely lurk without any special plan. No lynch does not put us behind: Our blue will survive longer this way. Lynch = scummiest person, remember!

This was the vote that spawned the prpl+forumite bandwagon. We cannot forget this, as this is probably the single most important thing that happened yesterday.

Somehow, (even to chaoser) this became a scumtell. This vote was completely unreasoned, and to me it came across with a scum agenda; get the attention off of themselves by leading the lynch on someone else. The fact that the vote lacks analysis (both on the part of hyshes and on the part of chaoser) is suggestive of the fact that prpl and Forumite were just scapegoats. Hyshes and chaoser picked a weak team to target and quickly relieved themselves of a lot of pressure. In the end, the bandwagon worked and it saved them from a lynch. The third and last thing that hyshes did was he disappeared after this. Just dropped off the face of the Earth, and he hasn't been here since. For a team that was supposed to be chaoser coaching hyshes, this is incredibly suspicious, particularly as chaoser has many times the number of posts hyshes has. That doesn't sound like chaoser is coaching hyshes at all.

This is the first post that originally stood out to me from chaoser. Highlighted are the important parts. red=dismissed prpl's statement rather angrily (or so it appeared to me) without actually addressing his point. Prpl was stating that this game is not specifically a mentor-type game, with the implication that chaoser can't just cop out of being here because he's coaching hyshes. Chaoser instead takes offense to the statement that he got himself lynched as DT. (missing the point) green=once again, missing the point. Chaoser focuses on the notion that the bad plan doesn't make hyshes scum, though he does nothing to address the motivation concerns. In fact, the crux of the argument against hyshes had nothing to do with the plan at all, but rather the reasoning behind the plan. This can be seen with prpl's reference to the fact that he thought, "it was conceived by a mafia mind." Also, he incorrectly and misleadingly exaggerates by implying that only townies post bad plans: Go read any number of games but especially LoTR's opening days where tons of shitty plans came forward and all of them were by townies. This is actually completely false. I actually remembered one certain someone posting a plan in LoTR, who was universally thought to be town for quite a while, until chaoser himself shot him.

What do we actually want on Day 1? First, we want to get everyone down on paper. Thoughts, feelings, vibes, etc. I really don't care what you're saying right now, I just want you to say it. Second, establish a baseline of activity. PlayerA makes 20 posts Day 1 and 5 Day 2, that's a problem since there is very little to talk about on Day 1 and a whole lot more on Day 2. Step 3, avoid lynching an easy target. This is a player with a few bad posts, or some flip floppy votes, or a badly phrased 'scum slip'. Easy targets give scum great excuses to get on a bandwagon. Instead we're going to lynch someone who is fairly active, but not saying anything worthwhile. With 5 posts per cycle it means we're going to have something to go on, however likely not till the later half of Day 1. Which leads to: Step 4. Hold your votes. Slamming votes around 6-12 hours into the game is not productive. Take off your scum-goggles and allow people to post. Have a suspicious person in mind? Great, sit on it and let them keep posting. See if they keep posting scummy stuff.... THEN attack them. All players should be keeping a spreadsheet with notes/roles/activity levels/ etc. Posts like this(mine) should not be given consideration when you are trying to determine a players alignment. Are there helpful tips in my post? Absolutely. Have I said anything remotely game related? Absolutely not. Anyone can talk in generalities. Anyone can offer advice. Honestly, I cannot stress how important it is to keep a spreadsheet. If you don't know who's still alive in the game, or who claimed what, or which players voted for whom, then how can you make informed decisions? For those who don't remember, Radfield was scum. So much for "only townies post plans day 1 and put themselves out there", eh? The only other player I can recall who even made a plan that game was Trancestorm. And if it's somehow specifically a bad plan that makes it different, then we haven't even considered sandro's plan from PYP, have we? Pretty bad plan it was, IMO, and the way he pushed that plan caused me to be suspicious of him from nearly the beginning of the game. Indeed, this game he pushed a fairly bad plan too, but I'm not sure of him in this game because the way he approached it was different. In fact, his behavior has just been giving me ??? all over the place because I can't find consistency in this game. blue= Chaoser misses the point for the third time in a row and once again twists prpl's words. In chaoser's own words, either a townie intentionally posts a bad plan to draw out mafia (and prpl calls out chaoser on this, since chaoser is mentioning a scenario that doesn't apply) or a townie posts a bad plan because he is bad at coming up with plans. There is nothing that just automatically makes townies worse at coming up with plans. The idea itself is stupid, and indeed you are committing self-deceit if you simply and almost automatically assume anyone who comes up with a bad plan is town. prpl correctly and very effectively points out that mafia have a vested interest in appearing like they are contributing. Posting a plan is a great way to do this. Indeed, we need to look at classic behavioral tells that suggest that it is indeed a scum posting a bad plan and then trying to get away with it, and we later see that this is exactly the case with hyshes. As prpl stated, this was the one situation (scum trying to appear town) that chaoser very conveniently glossed over in his posts about who posts plans and why. In looking to establish whether the plan poster is scum or not, we would need to look at the behavior after the post. Scum would want to feign contribution and then fly under the radar to remain unsuspecting. This is exactly what hyshes did. After the plan was posted, he really didn't do anything. Then, when it came to crunch time and it was apparent that he and chaoser would be a focus for the lynch, he started the bandwagon on prpl+forumite and promptly disappeared. The next post of chaoser that tipped me off further was this: On November 04 2011 05:36 chaoser wrote: Says my team is scummy, doesn't vote for us. ??? This post suggested to me that chaoser didn't have a vested interest in reading the thread. He seemed to only be interested in who was suspicious of his team. Indeed, his first suspicions were of prpl, and it certainly seemed like it was in reaction to prpl pressuring chaoser on the plan/hyshes business. For someone who kept getting outraged over people using "shitty logic," I found it extremely weird that chaoser wasn't reading the thread properly, so as to completely miss my vote on his team. How can a person who is concerned with proper logic employ said logic without a proper foundation of information that is gathered through actually reading the thread?

I'm leaving in an hour or so, maybe kitaman27 or redFF can conjure up something before that. Forumite even posts this: Sure, you can pick this lynch, I´ll pick the next one which shows that only does he NOT care about his previous case against us but that he's ok with lynching whomever. They went after exclusively lurker teams or "easy targets" as I like to call them. They also showed a disregard to what their actual suspicions were, being very cavalier with their vote as well as their own reasoning/cases. Multiple times they posted a case and then were completely fine when their teammate wrote a case about someone else and then voted for that someone else without question. Finally, they decided to rest their vote on a team that they themselves didn't even push for (red21), citing GM's argument as "good" as the only reason for voting for them. It's the "I don't give a damn who gets lynched" attitude that's suspicious to me. This post was strange to me simply because chaoser was introducing reasons for prpl/Forumite being scum that weren't present in the actual vote that hyshes posted. He said earlier that hyshes was coming along with the reasoning for voting prpl/forumite. Hyshes posted the vote by simply quoting the three voteposts of prpl and Forumite, saying that they were scum because they were voting a lot (wtf?) Again, for someone like chaoser who is so concerned with shitty logic, the logic couldn't get shittier. How does "voting a lot" make someone scum? Finally, the hypocrisy of the red and bolded part is astonishing. Chaoser claimed that the actual, main reason for voting prpl/forumite was that they were exclusively going after lurker teams or "easy targets." In the same vein, chaoser's team was pursuing one of the easiest targets of all. This was only proved by how easily prpl and forumite got bandwagoned and lynched. Pretty much every vote for them was completely baseless and stupid.

To expand on this point, in a small game like this, especially since it's so active, I very much doubt that mafia will be lurking or even inactive. Those are tactics that mafia teams of 6 use for late game survival when it's Day 8 and there's a sea of lurking/inactive players for town to work through. So for forumite and prp go for those easy lynches of lurkers (their cases against SS and Nipple mainly talk about how they're not contributing much and thus they're scum) and don't actually write any real cases against active people. Notice how prp immediately stopped going after my team. And when they finally do vote for an active team, they says "we're going to sleep/can't post anymore today, we vote for them cause we agree with GM" which not only is an example of them trying to sheep a vote but it's also an example of them having to no longer defend their vote since they're off "sleeping"/"Not being here" This is the last post I'll mention for now, since I've covered everything else already in both my previous posts and this one. In this post, chaoser says that, since it's so active, he "very much doubts" that mafia will be lurking. This indirectly pushed suspicion off teams like team nipple, team SS, team Switzerland, and to some extent, team S&G, none of whom at the time had been very active at the time. We now know team Switzerland was town, and teams nipple, SS, and S&G have still not been very active. Townies should not be excluding possibilities so easily. We cannot simply make ill-reasoned generalizations (again, chaoser, here's your own shitty logic) and ignore activity patterns that could net us scum. Indeed, this post seemed to come across with an agenda, since usually only scum will be interested in letting lurkers slide. Conclusions I might be heavily biased, and I accept that, but upon reevaluation I still think chaoser's team is the best lynch today. There is still the possibility that chaoser is town, and in that case it would obviously would be incredibly detrimental to waste more time arguing and potentially risk destroying the thread and letting mafia simply choose one of us to lynch. So, as I went back and reread again I became rather suspicious of both team nipple and team SS as well, and I think they would make good alternates. Nipple has literally done nothing while sandro has been rather difficult to read. Decon has not done much of anything either. Sandro has said some things I agree with, but also some things I don't. This is rather weird, as I usually agree with almost everything sandro says (when he is town). He also seems to lack in activity. This isn't a huge tell, particularly as his activity was almost nonexistent in SMG, but it certainly is weird because he is definitely here; he has posted several times. I am in agreement with him, for example, that team nipple would make a good lynch today. I didn't really like his no-lynch plan yesterday, and I didn't like some of the other things he said yesterday, either. In this situation we just need to obtain more information on these teams. I want everyone to post their opinions and their top two lynches for today. If we can agree on at least two choices then that would be some good progress for the day. GM what are your thoughts? | ||

He is clearly reading the thread as he shows up when called out, but apparently doesn't have time to say anything about anything else.

Two teams right now are posting relatively well: the kita half of red21, and team S&G (though their posts are few) Team Edward, team nipple, and team liquid could all be your buddies, though it makes sense for Team Edward to be so, particularly as chaoser has been slipping in things about scum not being lurkers and inactive. That's rather bullshit, since sandro has just jumped from scummy to scummiest by simply showing ignorance of the night kill.

Other than that there isn't much to go on. what do you think of liquid? I think they could be scum, but personally I think they're not because sandro and GM went at each other on day 1. I don't think scum would attack each other on day 1 in a game this small. GM looked way more townie than sandro, and sandro basically just said something that only a scum sandro would ever say (that is, something so dumb as to go, wtf?) Town sandro reads the thread and is relatively active in scumhunting. He uses good reasoning and I almost always agree with 100% of what he's saying. In this game, I agree with maybe 40% and then go ??? on the other 60. Then he says Switzerland+Chezinu would be the best chance for a scum team when it's been reiterated at least twice that Switzerland is dead. Plus, chaoser and I had a huge argument about what iGrok/bum being dead means and he apparently missed that entire, huge exchange. Only a scum sandroba would just completely neglect reading like that, and as I've said repeatedly, I'm not going to tolerate illiteracy during this game.

As decon said both our team and igrok's could be much more easily pushed as a lynch today then yours. It IS suspicious that you are alive, since for me you were the logical hit were you town (based on reputation and the amount of effort wbg is putting on this game as you said). Also, how much are you following this game or talking to wbg? It's really strange that you are both on the same page on chaoser/hyshes, since the case is not that strong imo. Do you agree completely with everything wbg has been saying? He usually plays this agressive and forces the issue, but that's not your style from what I gather. In the words of Ace, On January 10 2011 11:52 Ace wrote: Sometimes it's just better to think of a simple answer. You have no idea what the Mafia know and don't know their motives. Hence it's just a simple decision on who is more believable here. We don't know scum motives, and WIFOMing ourselves into trying to figure out why they didn't shoot us is a nearly pointless discussion. Perhaps they didn't shoot us because we didn't have clout and they wanted to destroy our credibility. Perhaps they shot iGrok and bum because they were blue hunting. Perhaps they didn't shoot us to set up a mislynch on us today. Perhaps they shot iGrok and bum because they had a suspicion of team SS! Who knows? There are multitudes of reasons they could've shot iGrok/bum over us, and leaving out those other reasons to fixate on us is simply bad logic. I am highly suspicious of team SS+Edward right now, and would be fine with either of them taking the axe today, but I think team SS has become the better choice in light of the simple fact that sandro doesn't know that Switzerland is dead. | ||

In Resurrection, for example, I jumped all over Jackal after pushing Ace repeatedly for hours because of the simple reason that I didn't believe his claim. I still thought Ace was scummy but Jackal became the better lynch simply because his claim didn't make sense.

Previous game are irrelevant, but of course meta plays a role. The main thing making me lean towards chaoser scum right now is the fact that hyshes is totally gone and that is unexpected considering what chaoser said previously. Also RoL needs to post. I'm not afraid of lynching someone that doesn't give a fuck about this game, and you can bear the blame of the loss if you are town. Of all the things that make you suspicious of chaoser the fact that hyshes is MIA, which chaoser has no control over, is what makes you suspicious? Also if you had to lynch someone right now, in the next 15 minutes, who would you lynch?

My sugestion is that we no lynch today and save a no lynch for later to prolong this game. This setup has a high chance of benefiting town and generating a lot of info the longer it goes. For people saying "if we don't lynch we have no chance of hitting scum". Sure, but whoever you thought is scummy isn't going to dissapear or if he does that's one saved mislynch. We are basically trading 2 nights of possible info for 1 shot in the dark day1. If someone here can say they are confident someone else is scum and prove it to us, I'm all for lynching. But despite having my suspicions I'm not willing to make this trade based on the odds I think I'm getting. I'd rather wait and no lynch today. In addition, what's weird about this post in retrospect was that it wasn't an original idea. For the longest time yesterday, I thought you were more town because I kept thinking the no-lynch idea came from you. In fact, the idea came from Kurumi and you parroted it. There was nothing original in this post, and I didn't agree with it to begin with. When GM pointed it out in the thread, I became rather confused. In PYP, you parroted another unoriginal plan and you pushed it in the thread half-heartedly. You did the same thing this game, and that was suspicious. I also saw the potential pro-town motivation of going for a no-lynch, but the behavior was too passive. Passive behavior will not catch us scum, and you put the idea out there and really put in no effort yesterday. You didn't even give us an option for lynch, you did nothing. In the aftermath, you conveniently claimed that you thought team Edward would have been the best lynch (but in all honesty you wouldn't have lynched anyone at all!) That's an incredibly strange thing to say, it's pretty much a cop out and absolves you of all responsibility.

You see that "the bullshit about blue snipe makes no sense" when I provided you at least five different situations in which scum could've shot iGrok. You focus on one specific case when I mentioned several. You focus and twist my words to convenience you when in reality I said nothing of the sort. I offered possibilities, and the only people who are so sure of who scum would shoot and why are you and chaoser. As I have said repeatedly, speculating on the night kill is useless. You claim that I speculate that iGrok was shot because of a blue snipe (not true, I don't know why iGrok was shot; I offered that situation as a possibility). Then you call my "speculation" that iGrok could've been shot because of a blue snipe is bullshit without seeing that your own speculation (and, by extension, chaoser's) is equally bull. Then, finally, you achieve your agenda once again by misconstruing my vote switch as a dismissal of my case. My vote on you doesn't magically make chaoser town, and it doesn't make him worse as a candidate. My vote switch to you means I think you're more likely to be scum, on reevaluation of new information that is available. The fact that you cannot see this is, again, more an indication of your alignment than mine. | ||

Not so impressed with hyshes's comeback to the thread. I think I only have played with him in LoTR and in pypi. Maybe werewolves but i dont remember if he was in that one or not. But because he was blue i think in lotr and operated mostly in PMs in pypi, i dont really have any reads on the way he normally plays. Taking meta out of the question because of those reasons, I think my feelings that me and super outlined on day1 are still valid. I am up for a Team SS or a nipple lynch. I might have missed it in your many recent posts, but do you have any thoughts regarding team nipple? Not taking into account the fact that they have been absent, their posting when they are here is very shady. I agree with most of the sentiment regarding team nipple. As I said earlier today, I think the lynch needs to fall between Edward/SS/nipple. After I reread the thread, I was suspicious of those teams, in that order. However, there are some problems with the nipple lynch, the main one being that it's another very easy lynch. In fact, it seems we didn't learn much from yesterday, because this nipple lynch is going on unopposed. In fact, I myself would be completely fine with killing them if it wasn't for the fact that sandro is a big advocate of lynching them, and they are not connected to any other teams. Let's think about this. The only reasonable connection we can make between team nipple is team Edward. Why? Because chaoser mentioned that scum are not likely to be lurkers/inactive, and this would ease suspicion on a team like Kurumi/RoL, neither of whom are ever around. Sandro thinks my team is connected to RoL/Kurumi for RoL saying that me+Rad being alive is not a reason for us to be scum. So, if you believe sandro then the only two connection possibilities for a scum nipple team would be chaoser's team and my team. Then, look at Kurumi's idea. He advocated a no-lynch on day 1, which is incredibly dumb, but that's almost to be expected from Kurumi. What's interesting about this is not really that Kurumi had an idea, but rather that sandro parroted it. Remember what he did in PYP? He parroted the plans of both Radfield and Mig. It caused both Radfield and Mig to view him more townish. I remember talking to Mig and Radfield and at times both of them used the fact that sandro had made a plan day 1 to call him town. Ofc, the plan was completely unoriginal, passive, and useless, just like it was this game. I have no idea who RoL is or how he plays, so I can't comment on his lack of effort. Certainly, it's disheartening that he has something like two or three posts since the game started, but he's not the only one. Indeed, just look at decon. He's not playing too far out of his scum play from PYP, either. Then, what about Kurumi? Is he normally useless? Yep. So we really can't tell anything from that. If you have time, Greymist, I'd suggest checking out sandro's play in both Some Mafia Game hosted by Ace, and Resurrection Mafia hosted by iGrok. In Resurrection, sandro was very active and caught scum day 1 (along with me) but we double lynched two townies (thanks to the derpness of redFF). Then sandro and I worked together and we had two scum caught on day 2 (ON and bum). In SMG he was very inactive for the first two days, but he wasn't showing any signs of bad reasoning or illogical behavior. He suddenly became active on day 3 and basically caught the entire scumteam within a few hours. It was jaw-droppingly impressive. So, by all measures, as kita mentioned earlier, sandro is "not trying." He's pushing easy lynches. He actually just sounds dumb. Town sandro just doesn't do that. That's weird. Kurumi has been completely useless in every game I have ever played with him, so I can't say that his behavior here is any real indicator of his alignment. Hell, I don't even know what a scum Kurumi would look like. | ||

I'll be here for a couple hours (noon to 2 PST) and will be gone for the hour before lynch, for class. I don't know what Radfield will be doing but hopefully he'll be around at least a little before lynch. I would like the lynch to go between team SS and Edward. If team nipple comes and responds badly they'd be a good lynch too. | ||

My meta is actually quite easy to determine, when I'm scum I try to look town and when I'm town I don't care about how suspicious I am when I'm stiring things up. I'm hoping radfield could post more tomorrow and tell me what he thinks so I can actually get a more acurate read without having to sort through all your nonsense. LOL tell me, what about how I portrayed your meta is a lie? Parroting that no-lynch plan day 1 certainly seemed like you were trying to appear town, sandro. After that, you disappeared. You did the same exact thing in PYP. Parroted Radfield/Mig (mostly Mig actually) to appear town, then did some PMing, and more or less disappeared. Every time you come back to the thread you deny what I'm saying but beyond simply denying it you provide no reasoning, no specifics, nothing. "your case on chaoser is bad. wherebugsgo you are a retard. you are spouting nonsense. you are lying." Try to come up with specifics when you're accusing me, why don't you? | ||

That thought was reinforced after kita claimed p-cop, making no lynch an even better option. Second in pyp mig never posted any plan and my plan was not a parrot of what rad was saying, I even had to convince him that not denying those roles was a better move (and would have pretty much proposed the same thing as town / was a mistake doing it as mafia). PYP I posted an extremlly pro town plan that really did go a long way making people believe I was town. This game I posted some controversial shit that could be argued both ways and would certainly not give me any townie points. You also acuse me of pushing easy lynches when I'm saying you are scum now and previously said I didn't want to lynch anyone day1. Huh? In PYP Mig had the plan of being passive and "holding out" by taking all town roles and letting scum kill each other. Jimbo and I called him out on being too passive and not wanting to actively hunt scum. Your plan was nearly identical to his plan basically saying not denying would be good and we should take town roles instead of trying to steal mafia roles. The only difference really is that Mig didn't say much explicitly about denying roles. On October 12 2011 23:44 sandroba wrote: Okay time for Sandroba's Plan (TM). I've thought long and hard about this game and the ultimate goal for town is to focus on surviving and let the bad guys hopefully and inevitably kill each other. This game will tend to balance itself since the currently winning team will always be focused by all others. Town has a HUGE advantage over all other teams by outnumbering and "outroling" them. Mafia info advantage is extremelly nerfed since they only know their own teamates. So how to exploit this? We focus on picking information/protection/survival roles. We are surely going to need a little bit of kp too, but that is secondary. By limiting where on the player pick order kp can be chosen we buff 4 (capitalist/rolecop/bulletbill/tracker) info roles, basically making them aligment checks or close to it. We can hold people that chose kp accountable by knowing where they are. We shall not try to deny any roles to mafia and let them fight for them and get insta-nailed when caught having one of those roles. My list would be the following, really simple (of course inventor is considered prot/info): On October 14 2011 17:26 Mig wrote: 2) Turtle hardcore. Just like in SC2 or any other last man standing FFA game the correct strategy for us is to turtle and hope our enemies kill each other. Which means a few things A) Green checks are more valuable than red ones early in the game. DTs I don't believe should be checking suspicious people early on. DTs should check people they think are likely town, not likely to be framed/gf and could possibly be protective roles. Then try to organize these protections to protect each other and insure mafia are not. Obviously there is always a risk of your check not being true so use your own discretion before claiming but forming small circles of mostly confirmed townies and trying to survive until the end game is how we will win. Remember we cannot win, even if we lynch correctly everyday, if the mafia do not shoot each other and we get some protections. Our goal should be to keep each other alive and let the mafias do much of our work for us. B) No DT should ever claim, unless we are very far into the game, to get a red lynched. And in fact make sure not to push in a way that could even make people suspect you as a dt. Almost half the people in the game are red, a 1-1 trade dt for red is horrible for us so use caution. I will admit though, I was wrong about in which order the plans appeared in PYP. I thought Mig's plan appeared first (but that wasn't the case) Also, other than the denying part, it pretty much WAS what Rad was saying. Your plan revolved around holding out by getting town roles like investigation and protection. All three of you were saying that, the only difference was that Radfield preferred prioritizing denial and you prioritized KP over denial. However, how can you say that your plan in PYP was "obviously" pro-town if both Jimbo and I thought it was incredibly shady? We attacked both Mig and you on the basis of your plans. The difference was that Mig seemed to push his with a different agenda than yours. Your attitude wasn't pro-town in that game, and it isn't here. This game I posted some controversial shit that could be argued both ways and would certainly not give me any townie points. You also acuse me of pushing easy lynches when I'm saying you are scum now and previously said I didn't want to lynch anyone day1. Huh? So you're saying you're intentionally appearing scummy? What the fuck? How would that be helpful for town, this late into the game? Finally, if you want to lynch team nipple, you certainly are pushing easy lynches. Radfield and I are a pretty easy lynch too, seeing as redFF can be convinced with almost anything and you and chaoser solely use the "Radfield is alive therefore he is scum" reason as if it holds weight somehow. Anyway, I'm leaving now; will be back tomorrow. (damn stats homework) | ||

Most important thing: after SS's flip, we need to kill team Edward IMO. They escaped lynch both days and that's incredibly suspicious, especially as almost everyone (with the exception of team S&G) thinks Edward is suspicious. Am I wrong in that assessment? Right now there's a lot of WIFOM going around and I don't like it. I don't want to get blindsided tomorrow (if Radfield and I are still alive, that is) and a team that narrowly escaped lynch twice isn't really one we would want to keep around.

That left the people voting for us as possible scum. red21 was pretty much clear, and I was fairly sure super was town as well. That left Chezinu. This was irrelevant however has viking flipped town which meant mafia were voting between 2 townies and could have done whatever the fuck they wanted. We didn't vote you on day 1 you idiot.

I think Edward is a possibility either way SS flips, but they obviously look better if SS flips scum since it's unlikely they'd bus. If SS flips town then Edward looks really bad because chaoser basically just followed my vote. What's weird about team Edward is that they are constantly absent whenever there's no pressure on them. They've also escaped lynch TWICE basically (let's all agree, they're not getting lynched today) Either way sandro flips, nipple looks scummy, but obviously a lot less scummy if sandro flips scum. The reason I say nipple could be scum even if SS is scum is because nipple hasn't voted SS and that's really weird. Unknowns to me are GM's team and S&G on sheer activity. Both teams were looking townie to me earlier in the game. S&G looks more town to me than GM's team, and I wouldn't put it past GM to be scum this game. I just don't find it likely. If sandro flips town then the scum are in nipple/GM/edward most definitely. If sandro flips town then we need to kill team Edward, since IMO they will become #1 scum. | ||

last minute thoughts: we need a hammer on team SS, and I think nipple and S&G haven't voted yet. If SS flips town then we pursue Team Edward and then Team Nipple and I think we'll win. If SS flips scum then the last scum is among team Liquid/teamS&G/team nipple, with nipple being least likely if SS flips scum. We lynch in that order. S&G not hammering SS would be really suspicious if SS is scum, basically. Either way I think we've won this. | ||

I dunno. That's strange to me. I really hope you and kita survive the night, because tomorrow hopefully you can provide us with new information and we can lynch chaoser+hyshes. Make sure you pick a good team to check tonight (I really hope your night 1 target died so that you have a confirmed town check) 95% sure chaoser is scum. I am disappointed that we let him get away twice (particularly with myself, since I derped really hard and was very convinced sandro was more scummy than chaoser after the way he was acting) but hindsight is 20/20 and clearly chaoser was sheeping my vote and only around at convenient times. | ||

So you went after SS, which I bought into. But now I'm 100% sure you're mafia so we'll have that to go on tomorrow =] LOL Your mislynch came at the time when people weren't sure of YOU as the lynch. That's much worse. Also, I've outlined over and over why I chose to push team SS over you; I thought he was scummier. I was wrong. Now you must die tomorrow. | ||

You went from "calling" the scumteam as being me+GM's team, to saying team S&G is sure scum. If you really want to be productive then start writing up a case on who you think is scum. Otherwise, go play with your little toys in the kiddie corner. | ||

If we have a jailor/doctor they should NOT claim tonight, seeing as if we lynch scum tomorrow a successful medic prot will become easier and easier. Indeed, tonight the medic can still potentially block a shot by not claiming. If they claim, the chance of the blocked shot is 0 because scum will shoot the medic. In addition, there's an even stronger chance they block the shot the following night since there'll only be 4 players left, 3 town 1 scum. At that point if you're still alive, kita, then you'll have enough parity checks to determine the remaining scum. Don't give scum more information than they need. Keep them guessing. IMO the advantage of the medic prot is bigger than the potential gain from getting the parity check. That's just my opinion. I agree fully on the voting tomorrow. That means, however, we need to reach a decision relatively quickly, since people are notorious for not being active. I for one will try to be here all day (if I'm still alive), though I do have stats to study. (midterm Wednesday) | ||

I guess we have a guaranteed lynch tomorrow? 95% chance chaoser is scum still IMO. That counterclaim makes no sense unless he's specifically trying to paint GM as scum. Nipple is probably scum #2. | ||

Also Kita, if neither GM nor chaoser dies that probably means myself or S&G will die. No-lynch won't work because a successful scum shot the next night will result in scum victory. | ||

Since at least one of chaoser/GM is scum we can conclude at least 1 scum member is not dumb so someone will die tonight. | ||

They have two forsure kills in myself and whichever one of S&G+nipple is not scum (probably S&G), and they could even kill the real medic, whichever one it is. Think about it. There is no reason for there to be a no-kill, that unnecessarily drags the game out for scum. If GM is the medic, they have the choice of shooting GM/myself/the third guy, and if chaoser is the medic they have the choice of shooting chaoser/myself/the third guy. Either way we're going to be dealing with a lot of WIFOM tomorrow. The only guarantee we are afforded is if one of them dies and flips medic. However, if one of them dies and flips medic, we have the game won. We'll have your parity check. Hopefully whoever you guys checked night 1 is dead, that's the best shot. If not, then we can still eliminate possibilities. We lynch the guy who didn't die, then we have 2 lynches to use on the unknown and whoever shows up as being opposite parity. If neither of them dies then we lynch based on the parity check and it's pretty much the same thing. | ||

GM is forsure scum, the last is either nipple or S&G. Kita we can lynch based on your checks. Lynch GM today and then we lynch whoever you haven't checked tomorrow and the last person alive on the last day. Then we win. | ||

Problem here is that tomorrow Kita is probally going to die because we no longer have a medic that's not a problem, they have a check from today. Imagine this: GM dies. If kita checked you last night, you're clean and you guys can lynch me tomorrow and then nipple the last day (or the other way around, too) If kita checked me last night, then we lynch nipple and then if nipple is not scum we lynch you guys. Or, again, the other way around works too. If kita checked nipple last night then he'll tell us, what parity he got. We lynch GM, then if nipple was opposite parity of GM the lynch comes down to our teams (S&G and Chezinu) town wins this no matter what. | ||

You give your check, we kill GM. There's no real reason NOT to kill GM today, he's confirmed scum. If you didn't get anything useful on the check then I say we kill nipple tomorow because S&G looks town to me and I definitely am town. | ||

I have been more suspicious of team nipple all game long, and that really hasn't changed. Hopefully Red21 can get us some more info with which to work. Agreed. This is the exact same position I'm in; I've felt all game that you and super have been more town than team nipple, and I feel today GM needs to be lynched at all costs.

![]() For now I'll make this quick and simple. I'll elaborate on everything later, I promise. Given that the check is real, we have to kill team S&G. Then, IMO the best kill will be GM's team afterward. The fact that nipple and GM's team are opposite alignments doesn't make GM look better. Ultimately the only difference for me with respect to these two confirmed liars is that I am town. I don't think town would ever fake claim in GM's situation but there is still an incredibly remote chance he is not scum, and an incredibly low chance is still greater than 0. | ||

Kurumi's last few posts don't indicate anything more of his alignment. You can't fault him for talking about us when you specifically said anyone who pushes GM's lynch is anti-town, red. You also can't fault him for uncertainty when you said your check could be fake. Honestly, your approach isn't going to give you anything. GM hasn't even responded and he'll probably come in the thread and nitpick now that he's seen everyone's reactions. From my perspective S&G has to be scum if the check is real. Then either GM is scum or Kurumi is scum, with GM being far more likely since he's a confirmed liar and almost everything he's done in the last 48 hours has been anti-town. His activity patterns match his scum meta from SMG too; he smurfed in that game and landed scum vig. He was really active day 1, posted a big case, then shot his target and disappeared. Didn't get lynched cause no one noticed him afterward (Zona shot him tho) | ||

as soon as you said your check made one of us scum, super said that GM is not scum. The check says nothing about GM's status as scum or not. He doesn't instantly become town. That connects them together. I also noticed just now that super claimed I said meta is useless (that's not true). I never said meta is useless, I just said people need to learn how to use it. Meta from PM games doesn't carry one to one to regular games and vice versa. You have to be careful how you use it. S&G have been trying to get on the "right side" all of today. Now they're trying to bait a mistake from town. Finally, look at the night kills. It perfectly conforms to a GM+S&G scumteam. I've already explained why, if I were scum, it would make no sense for me to shoot chaoser. I would've either shot GM if he was scum, (who claimed first) or I would've shot the other townie, (which would be S&G I guess according to team S&G) That would allow us to hammer a GM lynch within like 10 seconds. Why does GM have to be on the scumteam? Because he outed the medic. Any scumteam that doesn't have GM on it would need to get a baller night 1 rolecheck. GM and S&G both being scum is the most likely scenario right now. | ||

The lynch comes down to your vote. If you let GM get away with this, the town loss is on your hands. We had him at the beginning of the day and you basically pissed it away by seeding doubt. The simple fact that you said your check could be fake has allowed GM and S&G to muddy the waters. | ||

We were punished for the fact that the PC appeared scummy. This game was bs IMO, town was terrible and we got punished for finding the medic on n1 and the PC claiming n1? such a joke. We needed a roleblocker and we would've won. | ||

PC can claim n1 and scum have to gamble. Doc plus PC where PC claims day 1 and there is no roleblocker=we were dead from day 1. There was nothing we could do to stop the check going through on day 3 and if we tried shooting the PC we would've been killed even harder. | ||

It was 50/50 for us to win on day 3 and that's with two mislynches in a row. | ||

http://mafiascum.net/wiki/index.php?title=Follow_the_Cop it's really only breakable with a roleblocker. I wouldn't call the setup imbalanced if I hadn't experienced it myself (I'm not blaming anyone, I don't blame Palmar, I'm just saying that in the future this needs to be changed) IMO mafia should never be punished for forcing a roleclaim. People claiming and then loling to victory is just crazy stupid IMO. This game is about analysis, not dumb luck. | ||

People claiming and then loling to victory is just crazy stupid IMO. This game is about analysis, not dumb luck. That is why I argued for either a roleblocker/framer or a miller in the pregame, DT is just too powerful without it, especially if there is a high probability of protection roles being present. roleblocker would've balanced the setup, IMO. I personally just hate roleclaims. If I ever host a game I will probably punish roleclaimers very hard. TL towns tend to believe any role claim fed to them, but that's a big problem when generally only townies gain from roleclaims. Very rarely do scum roleclaims actually gain scum anything. Sometimes you see them do something but more often than not mafia only really gain from counterclaiming. Counterclaiming on day 1 this game would've taken balls, but we would've been dead day 2 and that wouldn't have been good. | ||

I even repeatedly sent Kurumi PMs telling him what I wanted him to do and every single time I'd look in the thread and there'd be this random single post that would make me and Radfield look like shit. And I disagree with you completely on the day 3 business. I really don't think I got lynched on day 3 for any fault of my own. That lynch literally could've swung either way, and all the facts were on my side. I know for a fact I would've hated to be in GM's or super's shoes as town. We were in a good spot. Town just flipped a coin and it landed correctly. Also follow the cop IS an issue with the parity. All they need to do is check people who don't die and they have more than enough information on day 3. We couldn't do anything about a day 1 claim. That isn't our fault at all. | ||

I was actually thinking of doing that myself. I just figured that holding off the vote would make me look more town than you. Radfield I think thought differently than me on that but he was at work. I could've also just risked not posting while I saw it because I saw it on my phone and kinda panicked. Had I just been gone I think maybe I would've survived? Who knows. | ||

You did your best, the rest of your team didn't. You cannot argue with what's a fact. It really did come down to a 1v1 argument where both of you raced to convince the deciding team you were town, a race you lost. You made a few mistakes, but overall you played a really solid mafia game. The problem lies in your team. The fact you defended Kurumi and RoL multiple times throughout the game because they simply couldn't be arsed looking innocent, the fact that the Radfield side of your team who could've complemented your aggressive style with big solid posts very well was for the most part missing.... Those were the things that lost the game. There is no such thing as winning a game as mafia alone, you have to do it as a team because you never know when shit hits the fan. I found this out in personality where I was happily leading town until a random watcher found me out and suddenly the rest of the team had to scramble. The setup may have been slightly town favoured, after a very successful day1/night1 cycle, mafia was in prime position to win, all they had to do was to establish themselves as town and distance, because the parity cop could NEVER have more than one check because you found the doctor. Right, but one check is all the PC needed in a day 3 situation when there are four other players left. Think about it. If the PC gets one confirmed townie, then the PC just needs to muddy the check and then figure out which one is the last townie. If the PC gets two people as the same parity in the endgame situation, game just proceeds with preceding analysis. The only situation in which the PC has less than a 50% chance to score scum on day 3 is if both the checks died. No matter how we could've played it, town would've had at least a 50% chance to score scum on day 3. All you need is one shred of analysis and a bunch of dumb luck and you win the game right there.

In any other setup there isn't a confirmed townie still living on day 3, therefore the pure chance is 40% to hit scum. Plus, the check gives more information than just the parity difference. It also gives a bunch of other information that can be used to determine connections. Do none of you remember that we tried killing GM and then bussing nipple? The parity check gave kita+red the information that GM and nipple were opposite parities. At that point we were basically fucked. | ||

Town had exactly 50% chance of killing scum on day 3. last time I checked 50/50 is quite balanced isn't it? And technically it's not that bad if scum dies on day 3, you just shoot parity cop during the night, and you have another 50/50 shot to win the game. Because of your good first 2 days, you guys were set up to have 2x 50/50 chance of winning the game. That's odds anyone should take. It's always gonna come down to it in mafia, it's what the game is about, having to convince people in a 1v1 situation. This time it was S&G vs Chezinu, each team has equal chances of convincing red/kita they're town. If Chezinu wins it ends the game, but this time S&G won the duel. But Nipple didn't have to give up. Shoot, Red21, and then it's another 50/50 fight, where Nipple and GM fight to convince S&G they're scum. At this point it's perfectly balanced, in my opinion. The problem is you had to go too much out of your way earlier in the game due to lazy play by the rest of the scum, so you were already at a disadvantage. 50/50 is incredibly good chances for town when they've mislynched for two days straight. EDIT: I mean really, put it in perspective. They mislynch twice and then suddenly they're actually FAVORED to kill scum. Without the check it's still 50/50, but that's the cap. With the check it's higher than that because the check inherently gives way more information. EDIT: I should say, without the check but with a confirmed townie. The fact that the townie is confirmed PLUS has extra information is what kills it. | ||

EDIT: I mean really, put it in perspective. They mislynch twice and then suddenly they're actually FAVORED to kill scum. Without the check it's still 50/50, but that's the cap. With the check it's higher than that because the check inherently gives way more information. thats something you really can't fix though. if we assume a settup with 8 town and 2 scum, the town has a 20% chance to random a scum. As they fail, the scum and town numbers reach an equillibrium, bringing it close to 50%. Town doesnt truely have a favored odds to lynch scum, because if it ever reaches exactly 50% the game is over because scum can control and neutralize the lynch. The only situation in which town has a 50/50 chance of lynching scum is in which at least one townie is confirmed. In every other situation, (just name one LYLO situation) the chance is lower than 50%. Confirmed townie+check is higher than 50% inherently because the confirmed townie alone gives the 50% chance. The check just adds to that. Therefore, you CAN fix it, by punishing roleclaimers. Mafia had no way to punish a PC claimer in this game. It was either gamble to shoot the cop (which would've been the wrong thing to do in this setup) or sacrifice a scum member by counterclaiming and hope your buddy wins in the endgame. Those were our two options on day 1. When that didn't work our option of bussing opened up on day 3. We tried that but then the check made it impossible. It pigeonholed us. The check basically FORCED us to talk about one thing and one thing only. That screwed us in the end because Kurumi randomly came in and started defending us when he could've stayed out of the thread and it would've made no difference.

I even repeatedly sent Kurumi PMs telling him what I wanted him to do and every single time I'd look in the thread and there'd be this random single post that would make me and Radfield look like shit. And I disagree with you completely on the day 3 business. I really don't think I got lynched on day 3 for any fault of my own. That lynch literally could've swung either way, and all the facts were on my side. I know for a fact I would've hated to be in GM's or super's shoes as town. We were in a good spot. Town just flipped a coin and it landed correctly. Also follow the cop IS an issue with the parity. All they need to do is check people who don't die and they have more than enough information on day 3. We couldn't do anything about a day 1 claim. That isn't our fault at all. I completely agree that you didn't HAVE to bus, but it was the safest way to win. But yes, the problem lay in you guys already having screwed up that opportunity, leaving it down to a decision on where RedFF and Kita would stand, which was unfortunately unfavorable to you. And of course you got lynched by your own fault, you have to remember, they only know either you guys or S&G are scum, you lost that argument to supersoft and greymist because they played well enough. It basically came down to a simple duel between S&G and Chezinu, and S&G came out on top this time. lol I really do disagree with this, but I'm not going to argue about it anymore because I know I'm more than a little mad right now. This game was extremely frustrating to me because I knew as soon as kita+red claimed on day 1 that it was going to be incredibly hard to win. I did my best, and we lost. Oh well. You did your best, the rest of your team didn't. You cannot argue with what's a fact. It really did come down to a 1v1 argument where both of you raced to convince the deciding team you were town, a race you lost. You made a few mistakes, but overall you played a really solid mafia game. The problem lies in your team. The fact you defended Kurumi and RoL multiple times throughout the game because they simply couldn't be arsed looking innocent, the fact that the Radfield side of your team who could've complemented your aggressive style with big solid posts very well was for the most part missing.... Those were the things that lost the game. There is no such thing as winning a game as mafia alone, you have to do it as a team because you never know when shit hits the fan. I found this out in personality where I was happily leading town until a random watcher found me out and suddenly the rest of the team had to scramble. The setup may have been slightly town favoured, after a very successful day1/night1 cycle, mafia was in prime position to win, all they had to do was to establish themselves as town and distance, because the parity cop could NEVER have more than one check because you found the doctor. Right, but one check is all the PC needed in a day 3 situation when there are four other players left. Think about it. If the PC gets one confirmed townie, then the PC just needs to muddy the check and then figure out which one is the last townie. If the PC gets two people as the same parity in the endgame situation, game just proceeds with preceding analysis. The only situation in which the PC has less than a 50% chance to score scum on day 3 is if both the checks died. No matter how we could've played it, town would've had at least a 50% chance to score scum on day 3. All you need is one shred of analysis and a bunch of dumb luck and you win the game right there. Town had exactly 50% chance of killing scum on day 3. last time I checked 50/50 is quite balanced isn't it? And technically it's not that bad if scum dies on day 3, you just shoot parity cop during the night, and you have another 50/50 shot to win the game. Because of your good first 2 days, you guys were set up to have 2x 50/50 chance of winning the game. That's odds anyone should take. It's always gonna come down to it in mafia, it's what the game is about, having to convince people in a 1v1 situation. This time it was S&G vs Chezinu, each team has equal chances of convincing red/kita they're town. If Chezinu wins it ends the game, but this time S&G won the duel. But Nipple didn't have to give up. Shoot, Red21, and then it's another 50/50 fight, where Nipple and GM fight to convince S&G they're scum. At this point it's perfectly balanced, in my opinion. The problem is you had to go too much out of your way earlier in the game due to lazy play by the rest of the scum, so you were already at a disadvantage. 50/50 is incredibly good chances for town when they've mislynched for two days straight. Only if the mafia already has put themselves out there. I understand you're frustrated, but you should know you played well this game, easily mafia mvp, and losing a very close game being the mvp of your team is pretty good. (You could tone down on the insults though). But you can't run out and blame external factors, you simply had too much weight to pull this game, and your team paid for it. I've two times ended up in a similar situation, that I can remember. 1st as mafia, where I had a 50/50 shot with a confirmed townie. I managed to convince him I was town and won the game. 2nd as town, where I was the confirmed townie, and both the others had claimed, sadly the townie botched his claim, and I was really new at the time and didn't read the thread properly (there were holes in the scum's story), I went with the wrong call and gave mafia the game. I'm not saying it's valid evidence to prove you wrong, just pointing out it can easily be done as scum. All the best mafia games come down to 3 people anyway, and one person is always technically confirmed because you as scum can't actually allow yourself to try and lynch either townie. It's a very common situation in mafia, and I think it's pretty fair. Thanks, also this is for everyone: I hope you all realize that my insults aren't serious, and I actually do my best not to use insults. I just resort to calling people derps as much as possible when I see bad logic ^^ go ahead and flame me and vent your anger if I made you mad. Sorry. I'm sure it can be done (I thought I could do it too, 50/50 is a coinflip after all) but I thought it was just unnecessarily difficult. Like I said and I maintain this is a problem, when a roleclaim cannot be punished by mafia, there is a huge problem. Follow the cop situations are not fun because there's literally nothing scum can do about it short of brilliant play coupled with even more luck on their own part. We needed to get lucky that kita didn't check us in order for the bus effort to work. The bus failed because kita checked us and S&G, effectively killing all chances of a bunch of scumteam possibilities. | ||

also it started out with the RB'er, and the RB'er was only removed because of the potential for jailor and RB to target each other. Which, of course, glosses over the fact that a rolecop is not an effective deterrent to a follow-the-cop situation in such a small game. | ||

People claiming and then loling to victory is just crazy stupid IMO. This game is about analysis, not dumb luck. That is why I argued for either a roleblocker/framer or a miller in the pregame, DT is just too powerful without it, especially if there is a high probability of protection roles being present. roleblocker would've balanced the setup, IMO. I personally just hate roleclaims. If I ever host a game I will probably punish roleclaimers very hard. TL towns tend to believe any role claim fed to them, but that's a big problem when generally only townies gain from roleclaims. Very rarely do scum roleclaims actually gain scum anything. Sometimes you see them do something but more often than not mafia only really gain from counterclaiming. Counterclaiming on day 1 this game would've taken balls, but we would've been dead day 2 and that wouldn't have been good. Roleclaims are good, and in games with really good players at some point they become necessary. The Town needs information. Punishing guys for roleclaiming usually leads to awkward situations and/or people getting upset at the mod. The level of gameplay also tends to become crap because claiming at the right time is a powerful strategy. As for the bolded - not true ![]() Scum roleclaims are just as good as Town in most setups. The major difference between Town and Scum is motivation at the start of the game. If a Town player claims and can't be verified, and the same happens with a Scum player then is there any difference from a Town p.o.v.? You just have to blame people who accept any RC at face value, or a setup that lets Town PRs claim with no real consequence. "Follow The Cop" scenarios are one of these scenarios for sure.

People claiming and then loling to victory is just crazy stupid IMO. This game is about analysis, not dumb luck. Follow the cop is not an issue with a parity cop (who essentially can only have one real result at the start of day 3) in a 7 player game with a role cop. What lost you the game was your (the mafia team's) inability to argue your way out of a lynch on day 3, or unwillingness to bus a partner to secure the win in lylo tomorrow. The reason I say follow the cop is not an issue this game is the following. Day 3 is the FIRST day a parity cop can have reliable results. Actually it is the same issue. Whether the Cop has results or not, it works for any information role that can't be safely CC but infinitely protected. The PC claims Day 1 with no CC because the Scum team isn't willing to risk one of it's members. Let's stop for a second and look at it again: The only chance a Scum team has of stopping a claimed PC is by CCing on Day 1 and losing one of it's members. If they don't get the PC lynched he is confirmed and they play find the Doc and almost surely lose. This isn't a good deal for Scum at all. At this point does it matter that the PC hasn't gotten a check yet? ![]() The same thing would happen if a Tracker claims Day 1 in this game. Your best outcome is going into Night 2 with 1 Scum team remaining vs a Doctor and a bunch of Townies. Not extremely bad but not even a fair winning position. You could play it this way 50 times and any sensible player that gets PC will always claim Day 1 knowing that both Scum options (let the claim ride, or counter-claim) lead to the Town almost surely winning anyway. Bussing your partner to win should never be a real option for a Scum team to win a game. If it comes down to that then something is seriously wrong. That doesn't excuse the rest of the Scum team for afking and leaving WBG to fight alone though. If you can't argue your way out of lynch you probably deserve to be screwed. Maybe I should've said, "very rarely do any of the scum claims I've ever seen actually gain scum anything" Granted, my experience is limited. EDIT: Also, punish roleclaimers=include things like RB in the setup, where if you're forced to roleclaim you more or less lose your ability lol. Kita and red roleclaimed on day 1 when there was a very strong case on them. We could've gotten them lynched (and I was looking forward to pushing it) and then they claimed and my dreams just got destroyed. | ||

I agree the setup is town favoured, but after mafia had the identity of the doc at start of day 2, and had already secured a mislynch and a good nk, they were in a good position. They got into a good position a screwed it up. They knew they would have to deal with 1, and exactly 1 result from the parity cop, which is frankly... okay. Again, i'm not saying the setup was fine, I'm just pointing out with the good start that mafia got, it wasn't the setup that lost them the game more than their inability to get themselves out of that guillotine. One result from the parity cop actually inherently gives you a second result free on day 3 if neither player is dead. In other words, you just check two players you have a very strong feeling won't die by day 3 and you have every parity combination possible. Then you muddy the waters and bait the scum and determine which one of the parities is scum and win. | ||

Save the real medic if he exists 2.) Give the DT a check, either by having him check me and dying or by letting him live and check someone else. In the scenario in which no other blue exist, I gave the dt basically a free check into a pool of 3 players. In a scenario in which a medic exists, the game becomes unwinnable for mafia, unless the medic counterclaims at night. Which chaoser did. If you examine the motivation behind the claim, there is no logic to it as scum, none.

When both team S&G and I said the same thing, and I pointed out how I would "never" shoot chaoser in such a situation, you should've realized that the only chance I would've shot chaoser is if we had a proper role check on night 1 on either chaoser or GM that confirmed one/the other as lying. That's a 1/3 chance we role checked one of them, way too low to be dealing with in a LYLO situation. So, since you got opposite parity checks, you should've insta-lynched GM. That didn't happen for whatever reason (I'm still not sure why I got lynched, actually) but whatever. EDIT: Also, in hindsight, there IS one thing I would change. I should've just shot team S&G and then insta-lynched GM with chaoser. It would've been suspicious that I switched from chaoser to GM the next morning but as long as chaoser voted I could've just voted GM and had Kurumi hammer. | ||

That game was excellent for showing the subtleties in the difference between a confirmed lie and something that, in a semi-closed setup, is really far fetched but the result of really stupid play.

You get your parity check back and nothing about GM changes. The parity check tells you nothing about GM. EDIT: In fact, think about any possible parity check you could've received in that situation. In every single situation, the parity check will tell you absolutely nothing about GM's alignment. (that is, excluding your first check being dead and your second check being GM) | ||

If the scum team was GM and S&G, the game plays out differently and perhaps we don't make the same decision. uhhh... you said you had a scum read on S&G not even a day ago, not to mention by all accounts S&G was saying scummier things on day 3. I mean, "scummy" is all subjective at this point, so it's not like it matters. EDIT: My whole point is that if the scumteam was GM+S&G (and the best evidence pointed to GM being scum) then you would've lost. The two situations are literally indistinguishable. That is precisely why it's bad town play. | ||

The Town would have lost but it was the correct play. If it could have come from both alignments, you discard the information and base the lynch on the other 70 pages. Carrying out a policy lynch just for the sake of policy doesn't make sense. This isn't a policy lynch. It is a LYLO and someone has been found to be lying about a Role claim. You can't tell if he is Town or Scum because his alibi is acceptable for both alignments so you can't take it at face value. What you do know is that he claimed a role, and the actual REAL role died. What happened in the other 70 pages that can overturn this scenario? Regardless, its a good thing we didnt kill him, lol This statement means you completely missed the point of everything Ace said. No i understand, He is saying that a smart town would have killed GMarshal because his plan was chaotic and very indicative of scum play, and we didnt do it because we were dumb. I'm saying its a good thing we were dumb, or we would have lost This is gold LOL It should go in the postgame analysis | ||

Next thing you know you'll have 3 new players fake claiming medic before LYLO every game | ||

There was a parity check between Radfield/Bugs and super/grey that returned different. That means there was a difference in parity between GM and Kurumi/RoL. From there, GM was the clearer town based on the first three days events. there is nothing that told you GM was clear town over Kurumi in that respect. Even Qatol said that you would lynch the fake claimer because he's a confirmed liar. The inactive guy is 9 times out of 10 a bored townie. This is precisely why we left sinani alive so long in PYP. He's fucking useless as town and it came down to a process of elimination where we had no choice but to kill him. Same thing here, except you had a choice and you just chose badly lol. You chose correctly, just your method was dumb.

I knew something like this would happen. I PMed Ace about 5 minutes after day 3 started telling him to check the game out cause I thought the situation was interesting. I wanted to see whether you guys would follow the logic train. It somehow derailed and crashed horribly. Although, you won. + Show Spoiler + also I wanted to know what I should've done better so I didn't feel like it was impossible to win -_- that literally was a concern for me though, at no point in the game did I think mafia had an advantage. It sucked. | ||

Technically we never had to make the decision because you guys conceded ![]() I didn't concede. Kurumi literally just gave up. I PMed him after going wtf, why did you do that when kita expressed doubt in the thread. Clearly, after 3 days of doing nothing, he had no future intent of doing anything. I actually thought it was funny that I could use the line, "oh really plausible, I'm the lone scum with 3 afk buddies" and actually mean it lololol | ||

I mean sometimes stuff is logical, but then if like people count on me to act logically you'll be very disappointed and maybe you have to account for that or something? Like if I suck and then you're like "of course he's a genius like everybody else because why wouldn't everybody be a genius" and then I totally fooled you because I suck and stuff like that. Or what ... ? maybe that's why you get lynched day 1 every game Look, scum barely touched you and you got yourself lynched. | ||

You get lynched day 1 all the time because your illogical reasoning makes you a massive red herring and detriment to town. Generally detriments to town are scum, not stupid townies. If townies stopped acting stupid then you could actually scumhunt for real, instead of active townies ending up fisting themselves by pursuing false leads when the real mafia come and defecate on the thread. | ||

Yea but how are you going to handle my sucking? Are you going to ban me from all games? Or are you going to try to see if there are other tells to my alignment than whether I just have bad logic, which I always have, or good logic? Are there other tells? Dunno I never claimed to be any good at this game but maybe this is helping, even though I doubt it. Dude you keep asking why you get lynched day 1 every game. People handle your shitty play BY LYNCHING YOU ON DAY 1. How thick can you be when you can't even tell the optimal solution is to just kill you? Just look at this game, scum didn't touch you and you died, meaning town thought you were scum and your shitty play=scummy play. So they killed you. | ||

![]() I wonder where that bastard is EDIT: Also prpl, for the record, last game in PYP where you were scum and I was town, we believed you were town because your claim was ballsy and we already knew someone above you had picked dreamflower. Basically even in that game you were gonna get lynched day 1 or shot night 1, which means that it's basically your behavior and thread presence/logic that's the problem. Generally when you say things they just sound anti-town, so we decide, okay, I guess it's time to kill this guy. In this game the case on you was really bad, but the problem was that the things you were saying that were good were buried under the pile of derp that you kept piling on yourself. You kept saying things that made no sense, and as GM pointed out it was incredibly difficult to tell what you were trying to say. From a town perspective it's really annoying to deal with someone who appears like they just don't give a shit about finding scum, or making it easier to find scum. So, they resort to the only way they have of getting rid of you; lynching you. Day 2 it surfaced obviously that your case was really bad. I used those facts to basically blast whoever was on your wagon; i.e. chaoser and sandro. They couldn't do anything about it because in hindsight their case WAS shitty. I used your mistakes, basically, your bad play, to punish THEM for doing what was optimal; killing a player who was detrimental to town. That's what happens when townies use bad logic. They get lynched, then scum takes the lynch and manipulates it to make all the townies on the wagon look like shit. That's how strings of mislynches occur. At least, that's how I strung those mislynches. If you notice, I had multiple options. I was going for bum, but then I forgot that we thought bum was blueish. We shot him and it made me look bad but I didn't give a rat's ass because iGrok had hard FoSed team SS and bum's accusations held very little weight. | ||

Generalizing someone's play based on the entire forum's average skill level is stupid. Meta is based on individuals, not groups; basing it on groups leads to false conclusions when you start considering individual cases. The simple fact of the matter is that GM's scum play IS good, so there's no doubt he would be capable of doing that as scum. Saying TL scum=shit therefore GM wouldn't do that as scum is not only wrong, it's an insult to GM's scum play, which IMO is not that bad. He was probably the most effective scum during SMG hosted by Ace, for example, and probably one of the best scum players I've actually played with. Again, not that I've played with many scum, only like 10-12 people total by now. EDIT: also palmar, if it wasn't for Jackal's shitty roleclaim in Resurrection he would've lived and fucked us over. Thus, the simple fact that you completely ignored the roleclaims means you don't remember that game very well. The bad roleclaim was the only reason Jackal was ever caught, he had shit tons of cred from just getting shot n1. Imagine if we just said "oh well this claim doesn't make sense but that's okay because Jackal has looked town forever and he got shot n1. He's not scummy at all!" then Jackal would've survived and gotten away with his crap claim. | ||
