We are not policy lynching anyone, mainly because even if it was a good idea, we can't afford to in this format. Also there is a 50% chance we have a cop and there are no millers or framers, which means policy lynches are even more retarded.
Meapak's posts caught my attention so far, if you are unhappy about the current state of town, you have to point it to a better direction, you are just complaining without actually being helpful.
I also want to hear from more from hiro. You say you knew errandor was trolling. Explain to me how that was obvious to you, while you argued the merits of blind lynching wbg.
@jay Lynch is not done in a random fashion, it's aimed to hit mafia and produce information. I assume this is your first game? If so please go read some of the previous game and get an idea of how things work. I'm tired of mafia skirting by using noobness as an excuse. As of now you don't give me the feeling you have the town's best interest in mind.

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.

People that don't seem genuine to me as of now are Mr.Wiggles (his "atempt" at catching scum was the most optimistic plan ever known to man) and jaydude (seemed intusiastic about mafia, but has posted very little, only one liners without any thought behind and after people's reaction to his posts has gone missing -> good match for inexperienced scum, but a poor choice for a lynch today since I know nothing about his play).

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

I don't agree. He does seem clueless, but he could be clueless mafia following the flow just as easily. I think a new townie would ask questions and try to get a better explanation on why to lynch wbg before putting in his vote. Kinda hard to say though, new players are kinda my weak spot =/. I wouldn't lynch him today because I'm nowhere near certain on him.

Tell me what you think about Wiggles.

I agree with what you said about wiggles and there is always the statistical benefit of lynching wiggles, even when there is no evidence on him =P
But seriously, his posts screams to me "look at me guyz, I'm being helpful and trying to find scum!". He seems to be trying to blend in too hard. I'd rather see some more from him before pushing for his lynch though, hopefully he will comply.

prplhz seems town to me this game, so maybe that means he is mafia? (j/k prpl =P)

errandor is interesting. His play this game is way different than any game I've played with him before, and one thing that's clear for sure is that he is trying his best to win this one. I'm leaning town, mainly because he is arguing against the hiro lynch which seems reasonable to me at this point.

Onto my weak scum suspect, Meapak: what do you think about this guy?

Fuck man, there is not much argument against lynching wiggles. No one is really pushing a second candidate (MZ is pushing hiro, but not too strongly, I would expect him to put a lot more effort into it if he was mafia with wiggles).

Jaybrundage is looking real scummy to me and voting wiggles too. =/

@Wiggles There is not much you can say that will change my mind tbh. Reading all your posts they come off to me as fabricated and convinient, not actually a genuine thought process of a townie trying to find scum. The only thing that actually bothers me is the lack of resistance against your lynch, but it's indeed possible that you have a non influential player as your partner. You raise a few good points on MZ, but the evidence is kinda of thin imo and it seems like you are streching it to save your own ass. The same with errandor.
The fact that you chose these 2 to acuse seems extremelly convinient to me when the main people calling you out are suspicious of one or the other. It seems you are specifically trying to alter our reads towards you, not actually trying to find scum on our own, and this only makes sense if you are scum yourself.

I'm here, I'm pondering which is the best lynch for today. I'll post when I've convinced myself on who to lynch. Wbg doesn't seem scum to me this game. Jay is a possibility, but I'm nowhere near confident on him.
Based on Wiggles posts hiro is a strong possibility since he never mentions him and instead of going for him (which was the best option since a lot of people were suspicious of him) when his ass was on the line, he goes for errandor/mz. Kinda peculiar choice in that situation if hiro was not scum with him. This however goes against my previous read on hiro and he did vote for wiggles on his own, but well sometimes I'm wrong =/.
That being said I don't feel like mafia is ever going to get rid of jay for us, and I don't feel I'm going to get a better read on him any time soon. I'd be fine lynching him today until more information comes in.

K I've reflected a bit and I think MZ/jay and maybe hiro (not very likely) are the only people that may be scum. Most likely MZ, but I'm kinda lazy to explain why. If hiro and jay could give their opinions on who they think the last scum is it would be great.

@jaybrundage Man, do you realise I basically was the main force changing the lynch form hiro onto Wiggles? No one was voting for wiggles before I said I thought hiro was not scum and explained how wiggles "It was a trap for scum!" bullshit made no sense and seemed artificial. I shifted the discussion with palmer towards wiggles and then put in the last vote on him, even though I had cold feet since no one seemed to be defending him.
All this considered there is absolutely no way I'm scum this game and no matter how new you are you should realise this. Also you say I'm scum in all your posts and votes wbg? Only because someone else is voting for him? I swear man, if you are not scum this game mafia is not your thing at all =/

Yeah that was a bit harsh, sorry. I'm just puzzled by his behaviour and it does not fit new townie either.
The one thing that really make me believe he might be scum though and I guess I forgot to point out is this:

This is some backwards logic to saying someone is scum unless you are already sure of wiggles alignment beforehand. Doesn't make sense for a newbie townie to be behaving like that and waiting to vote on wiggles since at that point no one was 100% sure on his alignment. Doesn't make sense on calling me out for taking long to vote for wiggles, since I even hammered the vote. That's scum logic right there transpiring in his backwards train of thought.

My whole case on meapak was based on him weak pushing hiro day1 and wiggles trying to distance himself from him. I don't feel like typing it up cuz I feel there is good odds on jay flipping scum, so I'll save myself the trouble. Especially after he posted his case on WBG, which DOES seem authentic, so he gets townie points from that.

@Errandor I commented on that already in a previous post. I had a town read on hiro day1, but wiggles not going for him when his ass was on the line seems a bit strange. It can be explained if he thought he wouldn't be able to convince me/palmar hiro was scum OR hiro was indeed scum with him. Hiro is missing though, he said 12 hours but it's been way more than that =/. I wanna hear what he has to say about today's lynch.
What's your take on today? Who you think is the best lynch?

The fact that jay explains why he voted wiggles after he was already lynched shows that he already knew that he would be lynched at 5 votes, so it was a concious act. He was holding off on voting and the explanation he provided as to why may only be logical given acess to extra info (knowing wiggles is scum). The more I think about it, the more I'm confident he will flip red.

I think no matter what alignment it's already established that he is not the greatest mafia player. However, despite inexperience, I can only explain his actions so far if he is scum. Even in the very begining of the game I got that impression when he threw in the wbg vote and after that it only got worse. If being scum somehow makes you better at mafia in your first game than maybe I'm mistaken, but I don't think it's the case.

You are missing my point. Your general play will be shit in your first game, but that first vote may have been him being completely clueless and not scum. If you have not played before and see 2 people voting for someone in the first 5 posts or something, don't you think that its possible that he thought that is how we play this game? As Scum, wouldn't you be more likely to shut up and do nothing, instead of pushing somone you know is town?

You are talking about the "clueless card" and you think he is not "that " bad but if he is not , why would he point something out to you that makes you even more certain that he is scum?


I don't know how you are jumping to that conclusion. Each person functions differently. Maybe you are knew and see 2 players you know are town voting for some random dude and figures "well maybe I should that too".
And he also doesn't know how my head works so your argument that he wouldn't post that as it would lead me to believe he was scum makes no sense. Like wiggles is a good player and I'm sure he didn't intend to get caught in his posts, but still we figured him out. How does his play so far makes him town as oposed to scum? I really took a look at several other players, but I simply cannot flat out call someone else scum without ignoring some townie behaviour from his posts. Jay just seems like the best option by far to me. Who would you say is a better lynch?

Well, as I already posted it kinda makes sense if hiro is scum, given wiggles' behaviour, but his own behaviour day1 lead me to think he is town. I would like to see his opinion on the lynch aswel.
Your logic (except for meapak, because he didn't go balls deep for hiro and we have no confirmation about his alignment) seems fine, but the thing that puzzles me is that if you went out of your way to make these conections beforehand you should have come to the conclusion I was town on your own. It feels like an after thought to me =/.

The thing that bothers me about lynching hiro is that they were both on the chopping block yesterday and they made no real effort to get the lynch moved elsewhere. Like wiggles had no thread presence while the pressure was on hiro and it seemed like he might have ended up being lynched. Wiggles only really makes an appearance when he gets called out. Occam's razor says that one of the main lynch targets ytd ought to be town, but then again it has failed me before (merc mini mafia).

We could also no lynch twice and still have 2 chances on hitting scum. That could be a good strategy if our blue(s) use their heads.

Hmm actually no lynching might be a good option, as both cop and jailer (if you protect someone and still mafia gets their kill off means that player is inocent, so you need to protect a dif person each night to confirm as many as possible) can confirm players. With also the possibility of medic/jailer mafia can't exactly choose who to kill and they are behind, so that means they are going to have to shoot shady players if they want sure kills, which is a plus for town as it narrows down our suspects.

As the great artosis said, when you are ahead, get more ahead. There is only 1/6 chance that we have no roles capable of confirming players and even if we only have a medic, he can get a protect and confirm himself + another player. That means disaster for scum so if they risk shooting one of the players everybody else thinks is town they risk losing outright. The only way scum can actually come back is if we keep mislynching people. While we have 1-2 blues alive, prolonging the game only gives us more info. If we had a clear cut lynch today, great, but nobody seems to be on the same page and risking a mislynching on low odds seems like throwing away our lead.

Wow, this is going really slow. Here's something to get people talking:

If you could pick one player (Not yourself) to make mayor (decides day 1 lynch + a couple night's worth of protection), who would it be and why?

I would personally pick MZ. He's level headed, and a decent scum-hunter, so I don't think he'd do anything crazy with a day 1 lynch, and the protection would come in handy with letting him live until later when he could scum-hunt more effectively.

Back to you guys.


Mr. Wiggles, I don't believe I've ever seen you play town. Nonetheless, your first post is moronic. You're obviously not new, and I assume you have a functioning cerebral cortex. Thus, I think you should stop distracting town with a brainless question and an equally brainless answer to your own question. Next time, ask people what their favorite color is, because I'm sure that'll be more relevant to finding scum than what you posted.


This interaction with mr.wiggles seems very legit.

Scum can't really afford to hold of shooting we have 50% chance of having cop. They exchange a kill for 1/6 chance of getting lucky and "confirmed" by the medic. They also have to be in the "likely town" player pool in the first place, to this having any resemblance of chance of working out in their favor. Still the odds are stacked towards town.

Go filter wbg when the wiggles discussion was going on. He says he is fine with wiggles lynch while saying other players (errandor, meapak) are probably town. As scum why would he do such a thing? If you are planing to cast suspicion on your partner and bus why you limit your lynch options for later. Doesn't make sense for wbg to dissagree with palmar on errandor and with me on mz if he was scum with wiggles.

The reason I didn't get shot is prob because we have 5/6 chance of having a protection role and scum can't afford to shoot me. Seeing that there was no cop claim till now that makes it 99% likely we have a protection role and if scum shot me they would confirm 2 town and auto lose. So yeah. I think you or hiro is the last scum, but I'm still trying to decide which one.

The thing is prpl, wbg is my least likely suspect of being scum after you, based on behavior alone. I already pointed out why I don't think he is scum. I'd rather take my chances with hiro today. Everyone seems very concerned about who to lynch today and people are strugling to make the right choice. Everyone besides hiro. That's since day 1, he only pops in right before the lynch and votes. He is prob the last scum, since everybody else has more things pointing to them being town.

That fact that wiggles got lynch so easily day 1 means that scum had very little influence over town at that point and couldn't push anybody else as a lynch. At that point a lot of people were suspicious of hiro, so if he went against wiggles lynch it would have made them both very obvious. He really had no choice but to bus wiggles, because with that much suspicion onto him, his best shot was that people that thought he was mafia wouldn't be confortable voting for someone he was voting for.
That also explains why wiggles chose to push suspicion onto errandor/meapak instead of hiro, which would be way easier if his hope was only to avoid being lynched. Hiro had 2 votes at that point, and 2 more people (errandor/prpl) willing to vote for him instead. Instead he goes for MZ which had no votes and only one person (me) slightly suspicious of him. I guess they were trying to go for a no lynch, since 2 of their members were in the chopping block.
Wbg had also 2 votes at that point, but those were mainly random votes and nobody had a real case on wbg. Wbg is an influential player, and were he scum, he would have fought the lynch harder and try to push somebody else. As scum he uses pseudo-townie traits of agressiviness and certainty to push the lynch onto other people, but this game we see that wbg wasn't really sure if he was right on his case on hiro (since me/palmar dissagreed with it) or the case on wiggles was better. That seemed to genuinely transpire in his posts. Yeah, he could be playing to especially fool me, but then he would have to worry about the rest of town going after him (meapak on day 2 and now you today). So my conclusion is that wbg would have played this game very differently were he scum with wiggles and I'm going to stick to my guns.

That newfound confidence is kinda interesting prplhz. How come you are so sure wbg is scum? Are my arguments for him being town that poor?
And why exactly isn't hiro scum? You seemed to think so previously.

Let's look at evidence shall we?
Hiro starts day one very sketchy with the whole "I knew he was trolling" deal, when he stated that it was logical to vote wbg day and that he wasn't trolling. Yet he doesn't vote for wbg. He goes after meapak who is calling him out on useless posting (like "I will take a hard stance on anyone that tries to derail this thread!" or "Let's start this off on the right foot!"). He later says that scum will try to pretend they are contributing without actually adding anything, which is exactly what he is doing at that point.

Well, If everything I say is obvious, and does not need stating, perhaps I should just stop posting...

I dont know, perhaps its because the activity level right now is bad? What else is there to say other than the obvious? How can we analysis if know one is saying anything. Im the current lynch target which is fine, but at least Im talking. So perhaps everyone else could come in and give us some insight please ^_^

Here is some more obvious stuff that does not need to be said: one mafia is almost surly lurking due to the activity in the thread so far. I think its very likely that one of Palmar, Meapak, Wiggles, or Sandroba is scum. Right now Im leaning towards Meapak.

He says here he is having a hard time coming up with relevant things to talk about and scum does have a hard time doing analyses on anyone out of the blue because they KNOW they are innocent. The bolded statement is something that shouldn't be obvious to anybody besides mafia, who knows their buddy wiggles is lurking. Anyway he keeps going for meapak out of pure omgus, he posted no real reasons why meapak is scum.

OK, here are my reads so far:
2.Mr Wiggles- null read. His first post was obviously trying to draw out reactions. both scum and town would can do that so it sheds no alignment. His second post has his reads on everyone one that responded to him. He does not give his opinion on the current lynch target.

4.Meapak_Ziphh- leaning Red. Its not anything that he said, more its his overall style in the game so far. He jumps on easy targets AKA both my "generic post" and Wiggle's first post. He undercuts my statement of trying to start things on the right foot by saying its worthless, something that is clearly a mafia agenda IMO. Will be watching.

And now for my vote. and I will place it on WBG. here is why:

-Bugs still has the same arrogant aggressive Behavior as every other game hes played. He is wrong most of the time as town, and It has cost the town the game on more than one occasion.

-I dont think we should allow someone that can be so obtuse and grating a free pass.

-I simply am gonna ignore WBGs for the rest of the game, but that will be easier once he is no longer in it.

##Vote: Wherebugsgo

Here are his thoughts on the relevant subjects (the rest was mostly null reads with no comments). He still thinks meapak might be red and votes wbg because of the same reason he refused to vote for him before. Note that now both his and wbg's wagon is picking up pace, so it's convenient to place his vote on wbg.
His next post is when wiggles already has 3 votes, he has 2 and I had said I'd be waiting for wiggles response before I vote. At that point he could either support wiggles or mz as those are the lynches being pushed besides his. Now if you are scum at that point and having 2 people voting for you and 3 for your partner what do you do? Even if you both manage to scape the lynch (which is very unlikely at that point), after MZ flips townie you are in deep shit, since a lot of people already suspect you. So he does a miraculous 180 and even admits that MZ was right in thinking he was scum:

Also I'd feel grand lynching hiro.

This post is so unbelievable worthless that my mind has a hard time comprehending it. This is like a textbook example of contributing without contributing and fluff posting. The part in red had me laughing it was so hypocritical.


Solid in calling out people. aggresive. I make a point that my post was not worthless, arguing that posting it early in the day and when most people had not posted much the reason that it had worth. To "set the tone" i said. Meapak disagrees and we argue some back and forth when he responds to something I said with this:

So Wiggles, please show me where I "make multiple aggressive moves towards people before settling on hiro." Your whole little case against me is essentially a rehash of what hiro wrote. It was bad when hiro wrote it and it's bad now.

Still, I don't think Wiggles is the best lynch for today. The case against Wiggles started when sandroba decided to start playing the game. Palmar jumped on board and those two got things started. Now the case isn't completely baseless. I've seen Wiggles play third party and scum and his current play does smell suspiciously like that. However I'd rather lynch hiro, who's scummy behavior has only increased since last time I brought him up. Notice that since the case against Wiggles was brought up, hiro has posted ZERO times. This is a huge scumtell in that once the pressure's off he goes back to lurking. A townie would still be contributing, however a mafia would want to get out of the discussion as soon as the pressure is off.


no changing his mind. My conclusion is that he is actively pushing a lynch based on solid logic. also comments about a few others like wiggles, Erandorr, giving his opinion on them. Giving him a second look, I less inclined to think he is scum, but will be watching him as the days go on.

now, on to wiggles:

so, other than his "throw out a lure" first post he has only posted twice. spolierd for length

@Mr. Wiggles and Palmar: I know you both are active on TL right now, get in here and post.

I wasn't active. I'm home now, and before that I was just on at school for a half hour at lunch, so I posted something in hopes of there being discussion when I came home, discussion which up until a little while ago has been largely absent. The "let's lynch random player X" train wasn't exactly full of content when it was completely off-hand and based on nothing.

Back to you guys.

Or you could talk about the game. As in waht you are proposing that does not really help us but instead wastes a ton of time. Maybe MZ would make a great Mayor in general, but his only post was shit. Why not talk about what is already there and how do you think your suggestion could help in any way? In my opinion it does not get anything going because it in no way puts pressure on Scum or forces them to reveal information Turned around it also does not help establishing townies either.
For example I respect Sandro a lot (because he helps me with my dwarf fortress ! ) and he is a good Scumhunter. But I could say he would make a great mayor if I was Town OR Scum because it is not related to this game and the alignments and you seem to ignore what people(in this case MZ) already did until now.

At this point I actually just want to lynch the Lurker who produced the least amount of content at the end of this day. Anyone else like that Idea?

Until recently, no one has really produced any actual content, in my eyes. We had 4 pages which were basically Palmar asking to lynch WBG before he'd even posted and then for RNGing the lynch and people telling him no. Neither of those even needed a response, they were just bad ideas with no discussion value besides giving people something to bash on.

It's like when someone comes up with a bad plan for town and we spend 10 pages attacking it. Everyone can do it and it doesn't produce real content.

Basically, I wanted something to read (which I got), and my post drew out a few reactions which I liked.

Erandorr:

He's trying hard to be GMarshal. He wants to lead the town along with generic advice and constant appeals to do what's best for town (activity, etc.). This can be seen by the quick reaction to my post, pointing out that it was useless and wouldn't generate good discussion. This is good in and of itself, but he's someone who has to be watched to see if he actually starts to give concrete information on other players in the game, or just continues to act as the "advising townie". Basically, whether he keeps up with the generic advice or starts to contribute concrete and strong analysis.

Meapak_Ziphh:

Here's our aggressive player. He jumped on my post a lot more forcefully than Erandorr did, before quickly moving on to Palmar, WBG, and then finally Hiro. I'm interested in seeing how he plays after Day 1, because right now he's just cycling through targets, and that could either be him as a townie trying to pressure and find scum, or as scum trying to elicit a response from a skittish townie or blue and take us to a mislynch. He needs to be watched for how he forms his analysis and what the content of it is.

jaybrundage:

Right now, he's being a sheep. That's either due to the fact that he's new, or because he's trying to blend in. He got called out early, and after that he's just sort of been going along with majority opinion. Case in point:

Honestly I do have to agree that the only Mr.Wiggles post seems very off topic. He says its going slowly and then decides to start a discussion that is pretty irrelevant. Did you have any point in this pick a mayor thing, and if so what?

I also am rather dismayed that WBG hasn't posted yet.

TO this is quite worrying. Although i do see the point of this post not completely irrelevant just establishing some guidelines which maybe obvious to some but always good to have a reminder imo.


AND I STILL WANT WBG TO POST especially seeing as he was the first topic of discussion

Something to be aware of as we approach LYLO.

Wherebugsgo:

This is interesting, because he comes in rather later than everyone else and puts effort into attacking my post after most people had left it. It's a case of people jumping on a bad post and repeating what had already been said, because bashing something bad is easy and gets you brownie-points from town. It was mostly left alone until he brought it up again, so I'm curious as to why he did so. He didn't contribute anything that hadn't been said already, so what's the motivation? I mostly see bad players and scum do this, and I don't consider WBG to be a bad player.



So, my post got me some information that I consider valuable and more information on certain players than the rest of the thread did before that (besides maybe Hiro). Too bad no one was really dumb and actually responded to my question though, because most townies here are smart enough to know not to and it would have been an easy scum-tell.


Now one thing has caught my eye, and thats the following: first in his post he talks about Meapak:

Meapak_Ziphh on the other hand, has shown that he's definitely scummy. He was trying to play the hyper-aggressive townie, but he hasn't played his role quite well enough. Notice that he makes aggressive moves towards multiple players in a short period of time, before settling on hiro. This is enough to establish himself as "scumhunting", but then he never follows up. There's barely any additional pressure on hiro after his vote, he doesn't try to convince anyone else in the town to vote for hiro, he doesn't respond to what I said about him, and he basically disappears from the thread. This is incredibly scummy, and contrary to everything a townie should be doing after early aggression.

##Vote: Meapak_Ziphh


So instead of "watching for how he forms his analysis and what the content of it is" he votes on Meapak for disappearing . thats a bit of a jump from "watch this guys post" to "He is scum". the other thing that has bothered me about Wiggles is that he makes no mention of me at all, when the rest of town has put up there thoughts on me. Why leave me out wiggles when I was looking very scummy?

So based on what others have said, as well as my own reads, I am be OK with lynching Wiggles.

All the rest:

I have a funny feeling about Prphz, and I would be OK with lynching him. WBG is slightly more readable and reasonable so far this game, which in its self makes me feel funny but I cant deny his actions have been protown so far.

Ill need more time to read over Sand and Palmar Ill be around till slightly before lynch


Yes, he suddenly no longer thinks meapak is scum and attacks the person who is going after him! Sometimes you do change your mind and alterate your reads completely, but that normally takes someone flipping something that completely destroys your previous reads.

Later errandor attacks him on his connection to wiggles to which he responds:

Wiggles makes a few post subtly referencing me. As well as not bringing me up when I was the major lynch target. I know Im town, so I think He was looking buddy up to me in case he dies, to make me look bad.

I thought it was scummy then, and I think he wanted to make me look bad in case he died. that, or he did not want to look like he was to much for a mislynch.


Which doesn't make sense, because the time referenced here wiggles was not on the chopping block, so the thought of him getting lynched day 1 prob never crossed his mind. Also he says he thought he was scummy then, but he doesn't state that in his reads, he put him as null.

So there you go. Couple all that with the fact that he doesn't give a shit about this or the previous lynch, he popped in late to vote jay who he never mentioned before in any of his posts, you'll see that there is a high possibility of him being the last scum.

I'm vanilla, so unless anyone else claims blue this confirms wbg. Prpl I'm pretty sure is town. If MZ killed me tonight that ment prpl would probably lynch wbg, winning him the game, so there you go.

@prpl yeah wbg's game is a bit off, he is not pushing his shit and is not as agressive as he normally is. However, being blue also explains this sort of behaviour (i.e. doesn't want to draw atention and get shot). It's a bit weird since he used his role like ass, he should have been confirming people who have a low chance of getting shot (like hiro/jay).
@WBG Why did you use your role the way you did?

You said you found that my explanation for not being shot was logical, so what exactly is your case on me?

The matter of fact is that you are content with lynching whoever is up for the lynch unless it's wiggles day1, which was the only time you tried to fight the lynch.

And since you are blue WBG is no longer confirmed. I really thought there was only a doc, since both jailer and parity could have given us info already. Now that he is no longer confirmed there is one thing that really bothers me about wbg's actions. He jailed errandor night one. How does that really make sense? If he wanted to protect a hit he would have gone for me/palmar. If he wanted to confirm someone that he wa suspicious off he would have gone for hiro/mz/jay. Instead he says he went for errandor. The next night he says he went for prplhz, which is again a dubious choice. As jailer in this spot you go for suspicious people that are unlikely to get shot, since if you see a night kill there is a high likelyhood that you confirm that person as town (unless you get rb'ed).
Let me tell you why this is extremelly convinient. He couldn't claim he went for me or meapak at any point besides today because that would limit his options. Also he couldn't have said he jailed jay or hiro at any point, since he would have to confirm these people on previous lynches and not have voted for them. In fact the only possible combination of players wbg could possibly say he jailed are exactly errandor + someone he thought was the least likely to get lynched, in this case prplhz. Couple that with the discussion that TL towns are too trusting and they always take claims at face value, which wbg argued against, you have here many coincidences going on. It seems like he has been setting up this claim for a long time to prove his point.

The fact that meapak claimed vanilla, when I was expecting him to counterclaim wbg if he was scum, also bothers me.

The likelyhood of there being 2 blues is 1/2 and the likelyhood of both being alive at this point is extremelly slim. The likelyhood of wbg, an inteligent player, using his role like ass is close to null.
You did a good job fooling me this game, but in the end you got cocky and wanted to prove your point.

Yeah, the fact that you would fake claim at this spot does surprise me, but considering the discussion we had on the previous game I think you are trying to prove a point and you planned to do so since early on. Your night actions make absolutely no sense. From your perspective it was damn near obvious that either me or palmar would get shot night 1. Errandor was not nearly a high priority person to protect. From your perspective the obvious choice would be for me/palmar defensively or hiro/jay/mz offensivelly. Instead you go for errandor then prplhz. Other than that it was the most terrible use of jailer role in that spot with one scum left. I said day 2 how it would be the optimal way of using it, but I'm sure you would have thought of it on your own day 1. You could have gone for people you deemed suspicious and confirm one of them with very high odds and save town from mislynching one of them. Instead you chose to completely waste your role. I simply can't believe you can play so bad having a role that I deemed auto win for town after day1 scum lynch. If you are somehow town and used your role this poorly accept the fact that you lost town this game. However I'm pretty sure you would not play so poorly having such a powerful role with 1 scum down.

It's not even for you. I consider you a solid player and it would completely mesmerize me if you did indeed chose those as your night actions. You are not dumb. You are a proud, smart individual and the fact that you are saying you are dumb suprises me. Didn't you realize it was dumb day2? Even after I posted, didn't you realize you had the power to confirm one of the players most of the town was suspicious every night? Why the hell even this night would you jail me instead of meapak, since he was your only suspicion as scum at that point? Roleblocking me prevents the hit only if he hit me, roleblocking him would prevent him to hit period.

What wouldn't surprise me at all is you planning to pull this stunt to show how towns are wrong on trusting claims. Yes it's poor play if you are scum, but it reflects your proud personality.

Wether it was possible you'd be rb'ed or not has no bearing on your decision, since it wouldn't matter by then. So you are saying you thought I was more likely to be scum than MZ and that's why you went for me?

It's not prpl being doctor that makes you scum, it's who you claim to have chosen to jail. The fact is that before I thought that those night actions were suspicious, but dismissed the thought because iI did find it very unlikely scum would be the first one to claim today. But then I thought about the discussion we had in the previous game, and how a claim at this point would be impossible to prove fake, since you can always say that the person counter claiming you is lying. The fact that you breadcrumb doesn't change shit, because you could always opt not to point it out. It was an option that you had as scum, push comes to shove. Yes, I wasn't suspicious of you all game long, but your night actions make absolutely no sense, no matter how you put it. 2 blues being present and alive at this point is extremelly unlikely. You felt the need to breadcrumb your role several times, without the fear of being found out and shot by scum. Surprisingly scum never payed any attention to your breadcrumbs, despite how obvious some of them were. Jailkeeper could fuck scum over so many different ways with only one player alive, yet you are alive and here and failed to produce any relevant information all game.

No, when prpl didn't cc you on the spot I assumed he was vanilla. You couldn't have said you jailed me every night because that would be an even more absurd use of a role, downright impossible to believe. You are saying that you have absolutely no reads this game so far, since you vote both hiro and jay, had no reason to believe errandor was town and had to confirm prpl which by reading the thread should be confirmed by default.

Are you insane decon? I pointed out why wiggles was suspicious before anyone else did.

People that don't seem genuine to me as of now are Mr.Wiggles (his "atempt" at catching scum was the most optimistic plan ever known to man) and jaydude (seemed intusiastic about mafia, but has posted very little, only one liners without any thought behind and after people's reaction to his posts has gone missing -> good match for inexperienced scum, but a poor choice for a lynch today since I know nothing about his play).

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

The I moved the discussion to wiggles and palmar is the one who agrees with me.

Have you read my posts and do you think wbg's night actions are solid?

Exactly how caught up were you in this game? You seem to reach a conclusion pretty damn fast. Have you read this thread carefully?

Yes man, I'm willing to admit that open jailkeeper claim is really throwing me off as I think it would be unlikely for scum to do that. But those jaillings man, those jaillings... so convinient and not well thought out =/ It's driving me insane. You do have a point about the discussion being about fake claiming as town, and ace argued that town takes claim at face value in res mafia.
I'm going to read the thread one more time =/

Several people said what he said was stupid, before I did, but I was the first to say it was suspicious. I ask palmar to tell me about wiggles, because I thought wiggles was scum and that would allow me to get a good read on palmar. I just found some somewhere day2 that you say "I don't find Erandorr suspicious, despite the fact that he agreed with my argument on hiro but attacked it on the grounds that he didn't like me.". I saw that you were suspicious of both errandor day 1 and prpl day 2, since they were both calling you out. From your perspective these checks do make a little more sense.

If you did that as scum props to you, I now think you are town.

I also read meapak case on you and he dismisses it as soon as there is resistance and there is someone easier to get lynched.
I won't be switch my vote anymore, so either prpl decides to lynch mz or you lynch me as I won't vote wbg anymore. My conspiracy theory entratained me for a while, but if wbg put that much effort building a solid jailer claim and had the balls to claim it on lylo like that, then he deserves to win.

##Unvote

Yes, meapak said that, then proceeded to push for hiro. I said I thought hiro was town and shifted the focus to wiggles. See the difference?

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?

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.


I wouldn't call this a 'hard shut down'

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.


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!

I don't want to no lynch. I want to lynch decon who is the last scum. Filter him and you see him posting cases all game long and then disregarding it to lynch whoever has more votes (day 2 and 3). The sole exception to this rule is when wiggles was up for lynch where he said "Wiggles is scummy, but Hiro is scummier."

I'm not changing to wbg. If he is scum, he did a wonderful job with breadcrumbing his checks and future role claim and so it's well deserved if he wins. The night actions don't really sit well with me and the whole previous argument about claims went over my head, but I've been suspicious of MZ since day one (tbh his very first post that says "let's stop trolling guyz" is what made me take a look at him day1) and him being scum is the explanation that fits the best.

No prpl you played great, I had my head stuck in my ass and failed to realize wbg could be mafia till his claim. By then, the way decon reacted to the claim accepting it completely tipped me off towards lynching him =/.

I still don't think lynching jay was a mistake in that spot and I would have done it again I think. Lynching hiro was dumb as fuck in retrospect, but if you are going to go missing and post once every cycle you should prob ask for a replacement =/.
