And we can hold off the lynch forever, whats your point? If the remaining mafia isn't a dick he'll shoot.

decon imagine we're in a day 5 situation after no-lynching day 4, and scum has shot prpl, he has flipped doctor.

What is different about that situation than this one? The fact that prpl can't vote and you only need 2 for majority?

It clears prpl 100%. We're going to look pretty dumb if he's the last mafia. Also as far as I can tell prpl has refused to vote for anyone but you, so we don't have much of a choice.

well like I said before, what's stopping scum from holding their hit?

We can no lynch for all I care. It's not going to do anything except delay.

This is why you shouldn't let town no-lynch as well as mafia no-kill

#Vote Sandroba

WBG's claim looks legit enough. He claimed at the start of the day and has breadcrumbed it. Also think about this:

If he's lying, he tried to kill Sandroba last night and prpl saved. He then knows that either:
-There's a jailer that jailed him
-There's a jailed that jailed sandro
-There's a doc that saved sandro

By far the safest blue role to claim at this point is cop. There's a 2/3 chance there will be a jailer CC. Again, given how early in the day the claim came, I really don;t think he would risk it as mafia.

wherebugsgo also knows this:

I am not the jailer, or I would have jailed him ages ago and exposed him. If not, then he could have role blocked jailer-me and then hit someone and I'd most likely take my suspicion off him. I never did that.

If any of sandroba/deconduo is role blocker, they would have to counter claim him, but that okay because he's already casting a lot of suspicion on them and neither of them breadcrumbed anything.

A cop claim would be lunacy. Then you might as well just not claim. I only claimed because sandroba took wherebugsgo's claim for face value because there were no other blues, otherwise I would not have claimed because: when you claim on last day it all comes down to how believable your claim is along with how much people think you're town. If people don't think you're town, then all it does is spread confusion.

If wherebugsgo hit sandroba last night he would have to role claim jailer. If the hit was saved by a doc then he wouldn't know it, but he could have been jailed. Not by me but by one of you and sandroba. In a situation where there is no hit, the first guy who claims jailer will always have the upper hand over the guy who counter claims I'd think. Otherwise either you or sandroba would claim jailer and throw more suspicion on to wherebugsgo, while he would just sit there and counter claim later with a ton or breadcrumbs leading to the question "why didn't you claim straight after the no hit?".

@wherebugsgo

You said you breadcrumbed your jails, where exactly did you do that? Some quotes or something, I couldn't find it in the big breadcrumb post. Not that I don't believe you 'cause scum wherebugsgo wouldn't claim to have done such a thing and then not have done it and neither would town wherebugsgo.

@deconduo

How do you feel about how hard sandroba shut down hiro protagonist as lynch candidate for day1? He really stuck his neck out there, there wasn't too much analysis it was just "I looks more like he just accidentally". That was really ballsy, and that was at a point where attention was slowly shifting towards Mr. Wiggles. Why the hell would a scum sandroba do this? He could have pushed hiro protagonist harder and he has a lot of town sway, that could very likely have ended in a hiro protagonist lynch on day1, and a hiro protagonist lynch that no one could blame anybody for because the dude didn't really bring his a-game.

Your point that sandroba voted Mr. Wiggles because wherebugsgo or Meapak_Ziphh would have voted hiro protagonist just to avoid a null lynch is stupid. It is insane. They both voted hiro protagonist, so if he had achieved majority (Meapak_Ziphh, wherebugsgo, jaybrundage, sandroba, Mr. Wiggles), and they all thought that hiro protagonist was more scummy, and then they suddenly changed to Mr. Wiggles? That would make no sense, a townie would never do that, and a scum would never change his vote to push his buddy into the gallows in place of a very scummy townie.

ALSO I NEVER AGREED TO THE SHORTENING OF ANYTHING INCLUDING DAYS

If sandroba is scum I don't see him flip flopping so much here, he would just say that wherebugsgo is town and his claim is breadcrumbed and there is no counter claim and then lynch deconduo. It is unfortunate that Meapak_Ziphh chose to substitute out because I know I shouldn't put anything in it, but he looked like he didn't have time to come up with a counter claim and so deconduo was brought in.

wherebugsgo also never shies away from pointing out how his scum play this game does not fit his meta. It's like pulling yourself up by your hair "I am not scum because I am not acting like I would act when I am scum!".

sandroba wants to let scum wherebugsgo win because he breacrumbed a role claim and because sandroba lead the town into two stupid mislynches. Derp.

Point being, when do I leave someone alone when I am town for using bad logic to attack me? I never do that, regardless of me being town or scum. Think about it, I get accused of OMGUS all the time, it's because when people use bad logic to attack me and I'm town I think they could be scum. In this case I didn't back off him just because (even though I didn't explicitly state the reasons). This was a hint that I knew more than you guys; I had visited him.

I've caught several scum that way in the past, it's not always reliable, but Erandorr was playing really differently.

@Erandorr

At the danger of being ever more of an idiot I don't think that hiro protagonist is scum. I skimmed some of his earlier games and he always looks like this.

This post from PYP:I looks the same as his posts here, he never says anybody is scum. He mostly just focuses on who is town. Now, I know that there was a mayoral election on day1 in PYP:I but people still had to scum hunt. Also his logic was way off as illustrated in posts like this. I think his posts in that game looks a lot like his posts in this game, he is trying, in his own peculiar way, to create what he think is is a good townie atmosphere.

The most townie tell for hiro protagonist in my opinion is that he voted for Mr. Wiggles as fourth. I don't think the lynch was certain at that point and I don't think that he bussed Mr. Wiggles. While sandroba had said that he liked the Mr. Wiggles lynch he had not voted yet and I don't think that anybody would bus their scum buddy on day1. I don't think scum would want any of them to die on day1 since that would give town 3 lynches to find the last scum, that's really uphill.

I would like to lynch wherebugsgo. The simplest explanation is that scum don't want to die day1, don't draw attention to each other, and that overly newbie play is probably because someone is ... very new at this game. This leaves wherebugsgo.

Also, I don't hate wherebugsgo's play, I think he's pretty good at mafia both as scum and as town, but whatever.

I don't like the no lynch idea.

I don't see what you are seeing in those posts, but hiro's posts in this game do not look like that. Also he's not focusing on finding townies in this game, and I don't even think the two games are comparable.

Lastly, if the bolded were the case then I am not scum. I wanted Wiggles to be lynched, but I thought hiro was a better choice. If I were scum, I would've acted upon the fact that there were four votes left and hammered Wiggles. I'm very decisive as scum and not afraid of starting arguments, but I am afraid of things that make me look bad long term. Not hammering wiggles, I admit, made me look really bad. I also straddled the fence because I was unsure between hiro and wiggles, though my gut kept saying hiro was the better lynch.

Ofc, at this point we don't know if hiro is scum or not, so I could very well still be right. I reasoned after the flip that it was unlikely though, since hiro voted fourth on Wiggles. I was the one who pointed this out to Meapak, who said the focus should be on me+hiro. If I were scum why would I point that out to Meapak, and basically give him a free pass to attack me? If I were scum I would have no interest in giving information to town, that would work against my win condition. I could have simply let Meapak chase after hiro because he missed the fact that hiro was the fourth vote on Wiggles.

He is focusing on finding townies. Maybe this is because he doesn't trust his own scum hunting abilities and instead he tries to find townies that he can trust. I think he has more confidence as scum, since he knows he's wrong and that he can't possibly he right it's easier to be more assertive. You even complained about it yourself that his list of reads didn't contain a single scum read.

Yes, it made you look bad that you didn't hammer Mr. Wiggles. You can say that you wanted him lynched as much as you want.

You pointed out something that 6 townies would have figured out eventually (I knew it, I would have stated it if you hadn't). These are easy points for scum to get town credit, you point out something that's important but that's going to be figured out in a short while anyway.

There is nothing to suggest that hiro is looking for townies any more than he is looking for scum. I don't know how you can come to this conclusion when hiro hasn't even said anything about it himself.

Second, when the hell have you seen hiro play scum? How would you know how he would play scum, or what kind of confidence he would have as either alignment?

And I don't believe I complained that it contained no scum reads. He called meapak scum, but he didn't call me scum. That's what I pointed out. I pointed out the fact that he voted me despite never calling me scum. He said he thought meapak was red, so my concern was the disconnect between his thoughts and his vote.

Lastly, I wouldn't point out something like that as scum about my own scumbuddy before anyone else noticed it. That's dumb, since it wouldn't further my win condition. If I were scum with Wiggles I would have either bussed him when it was apparent he was going to die or I would have destroyed the thread in my attempt to cover it up and distract you guys. I'm not afraid of causing chaos when I'm mafia, because I know I can get away with it if I have to.

And, what's your point? I was the first to point out something important about wiggles, but your excuse is that it would've been figured out anyway, so I'm scum? Your logic makes no sense. I thought wiggles was scummy but hiro was scummier. So I voted hiro. You claim to adhere to Occam's Razor but you ignore the simplest explanation when it's staring you in the face.

This is WIFOM, though.

I agree with you that Meapak doesn't look scum, but for different reasons than this. You can't simply assume scum won't make other scum look bad, because that's not always true.

Think about it, I don't think Palmar would've said he thought the optimal play for scum day 1 was to bus unless it actually has happened. I didn't agree with it earlier but it's certainly possible, we just cannot rule things out based on unbased assumptions. That's how, for example, town often falls into the trap of getting a "confirmed townie" and letting him live.

No, it is not WIFOM that two scum do not want a lynch to be between themselves on day1. They want both to make it through day1.

Palmar said to ignore everything he said during the night including his hard bussing theory, a theory that also surprised me as I wrote in the thread. I don't propose lynching only between those who didn't vote for Mr. Wiggles, but I think that it is very much more likely that we find scum there so that's where I'm looking. We can think about something else later.

Wait again, how can you assume this?

One person thinks jay looks coached, you think he doesn't look coached. Don't you see that there is no room here to just assume those things? We can't have it both ways, since between you and Meapak there's nothing objective that furthers one argument over the other.

Yea, it's hard to be objective about whether someone looks coached or not. Same about whether someone looks genuine or fake or fabricate and all that. I can only say that I doubt Mr. Wiggles would go out without giving some advice to his newbie scum buddy. Mr. Wiggles put a lot of effort into the thread when he was about to get lynched, do you really think he just totally ignored jaybrundage in the QT? That would make no sense.

If what you think Wiggles did was effort, then I really have to question what you are talking about.

Wiggles rolled over and died, he did next to nothing to save himself. If you think he put a lot of effort into his case on Meapak then I don't really know if you're reading the same game I am.

Also, when and where did Palmar say to ignore what he said during the night? He died that night, he certainly couldn't have said it in retrospect unless I missed something.

What?

Your defense is that you don't push lynches hard, so...then what? lol. You should have no fear of pushing a case if you're town, your apprehension is what is setting me off. I don't understand why you would be apprehensive when I know as town you push ideas very strongly. Your ideas might not always make sense but you don't wait around for people to agree with you before pushing them, normally.

And the way it looks, we're going to lynch jaybrundage, the guy who might be the hardest to get a concrete read on. Scum is never going to shoot him and we'll be left with your null tell still in 3 real days.

1 cop, 1 vt: Best case we win the game, worst case we lose 2 townies.
1 jail, 1 vt: Best case we confirm 3 townies, worst case we lose 2 townies without confirming anyone. There's a lot of WIFOM here.
1 doc, 1 vt: This case is laden with WIFOM as Scum can elect not to shoot to soft confirm doc's target. Most likely I think scum will just shoot two guys and we'll have wasted a lynch for nothing.
1 cop, 1 jail: Best case we win the game, worst case we lose 2 townies. Tons of stuff could go wrong, jailor could jail cop and scum could elect not to shoot that night. What would happen then?
1 cop, 1 doc: Best case we win the game, worst case we lose 2 townies.
1 jail, 1 doc: Best case we confirm 3 townies, worst case we lose 2 townies without confirming anyone.

I like the best case scenarios. I don't like the worst case scenarios. Imagine if we sit here in two days, our doc dead and another townie dead, no one claiming any other blue role and jaybrundage still alive. How would you like that situation? I don't like the idea of putting a huge responsibility on the blue(s) when we have no idea if they have the skill or ability to even further town's goal this game with an additional two nights to perform their actions. Ideally, we win the game but I'd much rather lynch jaybrundage than no lynch. If jaybrundage is at 4 votes at the end of the day I'll switch to him.

This isn't all thought out I admit but I'm not a huge statistics buff. I still think it's not a great idea to no lynch.

I hope you meant three votes and not four, since four votes means jay would already be hammered and you would be wasting your vote.

Most of the rest of the post is rather weird because the best case in all of the situations is that we win the game and the worst case is we lose! (lol wut) I mean, what was the point of all of that?

Yes, three of course.

Yes, it's a weird post. I just wanted to show that I'd thought about it, in the end I arrived at the same conclusion as a lot of other people: it's not worth it. I'm not a statistics buff so I can't give you numbers but it just seems to risky and town is in a good position right now so I don't think it's worth it.

I'd much rather see jaybrundage hang than a no lynch. He's the second most scummy by far, even though I'd still prefer wherebugsgo. If there are 4 votes on jaybrundage before deadline, I'm gonna switch to him.

@sandroba

What do you want to do tomorrow then if jaybrundage flips green? You said you had a harder time reading newbies than more seasoned players, and I feel that your jaybrundage lynch isn't as much a scum read as it is a you-will-never-get-a-read-on-him-anyway read. Also, you could be dead tomorrow so I hope that you will be active tonight if jaybrundage doesn't flip scum.

As sandro pointed out (sometime yesterday?) sandro actually, from a scum perspective, probably doesn't have much thread cred.

Look at it this way; by the end of day 1 he was one of the most inactive players, he was relatively indecisive, and there was never any suspicion on him. Even now there has been no suspicion on him.

That's an excellent opportunity for scum to open up an attack, since they love players like that. It makes it look as if they are doing real analysis, they are obviously making an original attack, since no one else found that person scummy, and analysis can be fabricated because the player is relatively inactive.

When you think about it like that, it's not so far-fetched that a scum player would attack sandro. The bigger assumption is actually the one you're making, that a new player wouldn't attack sandro since he's a well-known good townie or whatever. That assumption relies on wiggles telling him that, and trying to figure out what scum would do in that kind of situation is very similar to predicting or making sense of night kills; only scum know that.

sandroba has a lot of town credit, he hammered Mr. Wiggles. I don't think you could pick a worse day2 target than sandroba, especially for a new guy since he's gonna get destroyed no matter what. It's a bit hard to judge since jaybrundage is new but I just think he strikes me as a new guy with a very misguided attack on sandroba. A lot of new players think they've figured it out and that they're batman, that's what he uses to explain his late Mr. Wiggles vote too, a crazy plan that makes no sense. I think newbies like these and it fits on him, while I think that it's hard to overplay the newbie card as a newbie.

I disagree with you, sandroba wouldn't be a terrible choice for a scum to attack.

He's not the best and I agree with you on that; so then why would we consider optimal cases? Since jay is new he's not going to play optimally regardless of his alignment. It doesn't make much sense to push sandro from either alignment but it makes more sense from a scum perspective.

Yes, sandro hammered wiggles, but look at how jay keeps talking about Palmar's idea that it's hindering our thought process to eliminate the possibility scum would bus.

This big post on that day, day 2, was the big "?" for me. I was beginning to doubt your townieness. I was having second thoughts about Jay, but in the end he was way more scummy. My second choice on day 2 was you, but I never explicitly stated this.

When I have scumreads I tend to do this because I can trap scum that way. If I set them off early then they will kill me. So I figured I'd check you that night and if the kill still went through then we'd lynch hiro.

We lynch Jay, and if he flips town we brush that off and reevaluate again. We'll probably need to look hard at who might have considered bussing scum, since if Jay is not scum, and since I think Meapak is pretty town, scum would probably be in the prpl/Erandorr/hiro/sandro side.

Sure.

wherebugsgo, my response is in the paragraph above. It's latin letters.

Something tells me that you're scum and I just can't shake it. In the end, I'd much rather think that you're a great scum than that you're a weird not-too-great jailer-townie. Sorry about that.

If sandroba is town why didn't he try to win this game today. I have been on wherebugsgo's back since day2, why didn't he just vote wherebugsgo and hope that Meapak_Ziphh/deconduo would relent which I would find very likely. A lot more likely than that I would relent, I've been on his back since day2 and I didn't bend in yesterday. That would win him the game. Instead he chose to go for deconduo, which is only something a townie would do. Scum have no reason to try to lynch one townie over the other, while town have reason for finding the last scum.

I just don't get it. sandroba is 100% town in my book. Meapak_Ziphh/deconduo is 10% scum and wherebugsgo is 90% scum. We're talking certainty, not quantity, because then wherebugsgo would be 100%.

Man.

I don't like the hiro lynch. I've read his posts and while his logic path is not stellar, his posts seem genuine and doesn't seem like he is trying to hide. I see him arguing controversial issues and not thinking carefully before he posts. Not mafia imo.

I'm not quite sold on any lynch in particular yet, but I'm against lynching hiro.

It looked like hiro was going to be lynched at that point anyway. I know as mafia its great to oppose a townlynch when it looks like there's no way of stopping it, you get town cred for free. I doubt he thought the lynch would flip to wiggles so quickly, and I think his posts reflect that. As scum you don't want to be on the town lynch, you want to oppose it but still have the lynch happen. If at the time he posted the above he instead used all his town cred to get hiro lynched, there would have been a lot of scrutiny on him day 2. Again, I'm pretty sure he thought hiro would get lynched, and he just wanted to FOS wiggles for town cred later if wiggles got caught. He could then push the people who voted for the hiro lynch the next day. He didn't think the lynch would change so fast, and by the time he realised it it was too late and he had to bus.

Your point that sandroba voted Mr. Wiggles because wherebugsgo or Meapak_Ziphh would have voted hiro protagonist just to avoid a null lynch is stupid. It is insane. They both voted hiro protagonist, so if he had achieved majority (Meapak_Ziphh, wherebugsgo, jaybrundage, sandroba, Mr. Wiggles), and they all thought that hiro protagonist was more scummy, and then they suddenly changed to Mr. Wiggles? That would make no sense, a townie would never do that, and a scum would never change his vote to push his buddy into the gallows in place of a very scummy townie.
PLEASE

I think you misunderstood something because I never said anything like that. I said Sandroba voted for wiggles because it was too late to save him, there was already 4 votes on him and the tide had turned. He did it to save face.

I also think WBG is town because of his meta. He's less aggressive and argumentative as town, which ties in with his play in this game.

If sandroba is town why didn't he try to win this game today. I have been on wherebugsgo's back since day2, why didn't he just vote wherebugsgo and hope that Meapak_Ziphh/deconduo would relent which I would find very likely. A lot more likely than that I would relent, I've been on his back since day2 and I didn't bend in yesterday. That would win him the game. Instead he chose to go for deconduo, which is only something a townie would do. Scum have no reason to try to lynch one townie over the other, while town have reason for finding the last scum.

I just don't get it. sandroba is 100% town in my book. Meapak_Ziphh/deconduo is 10% scum and wherebugsgo is 90% scum. We're talking certainty, not quantity, because then wherebugsgo would be 100%.

Man.

You realise that you are voting for me right?

Yes of course! This makes sense! I planed a hard bus on wiggles, so I got people thinking he was suspicious, but instead of voting for him early to get the max amount of town cred I vote him late. Yes!

Please show me where I said you planned a hard bus on Wiggles lol. That's the exact opposite of what I said...
