To be fair I un-nay-voted your team Toad though that might actually lose you town cred ._.

In any case, I'm beginning to think Zona is a spy, in cahoots with an elaborate Rad/Palm scheme. it's kind of a long shot but it makes sense given what's happened so far.

The big thing about this team is that it's saying "toad rad grey zona"

Which is saying "on day 1, palmar or blazinghand (or both) were spies (rad town), and on day 2, palmar VE (or both) were spies (greymist, toad town)"

it's also saying "zona doesn't look scummy" and i have serious reservations about zona. I think i'm going to nayvote this team after all.

Man here come the nayvotes, right guys? I'm gonna lay down the reasoning for my team, put something together, and post it. That being said, if you think i'm scum you should just nayvote me now and get on with it.

Here are some general thoughts:

1) I do not trust Radfield. Radfield's actions d1 still are suspicious to me. I'm fairly sure he picked me for his team even though I looked scummy due to the "don't talk about spy meta" thing specifically BECAUSE he wanted me to be a fall guy. Zona goes into detail about this in some posts.
2) I do not trust Palmar. He's been relatively quiet, which doesn't say much, but he was on both teams that lost, and I wouldn't put it past Radfield to pick Palmar d1.
3) I do not trust Jackal58 for previously mentioned reasons including Hammering. The fact that he hammered the N2 team is meaningless though
4) VE actually seems okay to me. He was aggressive towards me but didn't tunnel and didn't make too many factual errors.
5) Truthbringer is still suspicious for me.
6) Greymist seems kosher. I'm somewhat worried about his post-reading skills and math skills but he seems more town than not.
7) I'm distrustful of Zona for a) the scum meta post on d1 and b) the completely unreasonable conclusion that both Rad and I are mafia (????) and then being like "well i'm voting against this team because blazinghand is voting for it" when RAd and I almost always vote at odds.
8) Toadesstern has been wrong for the right reasons this game. He's been asking questions, and rather reasonably included Radfield on his team. The thing I don't trust about him was the inclusion of Zona. That being said, I'm not willing to trust Truthbringer over him, and Palmar and Radfield are both iffy, and jackal is suspicious, and if I trusted zona i wouldn't be suspicious of Toad in the first place.

therefore, my team is Blazinghand, Toadesstern, VisceraEyes, and GreyMist.

Gentlemen, start your nayvotes! Anyone who thinks i'm mafia, please nayvote immediately so we can move on. Anyone who's iffy or who thinks i'm town, ask questions and interact with me! We will have many fun times together, I promise.

I agree with radfield that increased posting from town players would be nice.

Radfield, I don't believe your "town" read on me on day1 was legitimate. I think everyone thought i was mafia day 1 after I made this post:

The beauty of this though is, assuming you're right about the "1 mafia among Zona/Palm/Rad", If your mission succeeds, you've pinned down a mafia member! (WIFOM alert: Mafia, knowing this, might intentionally not sabotage, etc).


A post like this which shared spy information is very scummy, and several people pointed this out, which is why people were suspicious of both Zona and myself who made posts like this on day 1. It's why Zona didn't even bother making a team because people were probably gonna mass nayvote it anyways.

In any case, I didn't like that you chose me day 1. Looking back on it, I think you were setting me up to be a "fall guy".

It could be you just didn't think that was that big of a slip-up. That being said, a couple of other things (the unnecessary discussion of the 1/3 1/3 1/3 possibility, the delayed justification, whether you meant it or not) also compound that suspicion.

In any case, I think my team is pretty solid. I think that most people will look at this team and think that the weakest link is Blazinghand. I, knowing myself to be town, suffer from no such doubts. This is a good team.

Alright Greymist I'll unvote my team but really if you don't trust me and think i'm a spy it's impossible for three spies to hammer the vote, since there are only 2 spies remaing, right?

But yeah given that it's d3 and we have only 1 loss left we should be careful. It's possible I've made a misread, and in that case if my team gets 2 votes and then gets hammered all manner of bad things will happen. And by that i mean we'll lose.

TB you have said that Toad is a spy, but you haven't mentioned why-- here's what you say about Toad:

Why do you think toad is a spy? I'd rather not bring a spy along on a mission. I'd like to hear your case.

Although I agree with you, Palmar, that Zona is scummy, I don't think there's an easy way to justify radfield picking me for the team day 1 given that I made this post:

Like, do Radfield's suspicious actions d1 strike you as normal and cautious, as Rad would normally play? Or do they strike you as Rad setting up a fall guy (myself)?

Or do they strike you as "you are palmar, radfield's scumbuddy?"

That being said, you still have some town cred-- having someone besides myself calling Zona out is great but now I wonder if there's some serious bus craziness going on or if one of you is actually not scum

To answer some questions.

Why do I think toad is scum? First, as jackal points out above me it is hard to determine if someone is a spy by wtf they post. Yet toad, on the first day, before the mission has even failed, nay votes the team saying that blazinghand is suspicious. At that point in the game Blazinghand's participation level had been very similar to toad's participation level, anything BH could be guilty of, so too could toad. Except toad's contributions are generally less sincere, they are to me more, "look, I'm participating" rather than an effort to help the town make the best decision. His posts seemed to be primarily picking apart BH's arguments and then doing some math for us.

Another strike against toad is related to the math. After the second mission fails he jumps to the conclusion that Palmar is the reason the mission failed both nights. When it is actually more likely that there was 1 distinct spy on each mission. (With 6 players, it is more likely that you have grabbed 2 spies and 4 townies, rather than 1 spy and 5 townies.) With all the math toad did earlier, I thought that was a bad oversight.

Then, I see the team that fails, Palmar, toad, VE, and greymist. Palmar and VE have been consistently giving me townreads. Greymist has been essentially giving me a townread, a little bit of a bumpy ride with him, but ultimately he still seems town to me. Which leaves me with toad. He hasn't been over the top scummy, but he has been scummy enough that when 1 of those 4 have to be a spy, I am very comfortable concluding it is toad.



Another question for me, was my ideal team. If I can include myself, me, Palmar, VE, and greymist. If I can't, Palmar, VE, greymist, and Radfield.


Your first paragraph is essentially the reason BH already called me out ( I think it was BH, not sure right now). You're basicly saying that nayvoting something d1 is a bad thing. I don't see how that's a bad thing at all. You were suspicious because of your instant-yay vote before a team was suggested and BH was suspicious for contradicting himself. At least I thought so, don't know about the rest. Therefor I nay-voted the team because again, that's all I had at this point in time.
I really don't like the style you're posting because it sounds a lot like "well since we don't see flips we will never know about people for sure, therefor we don't need to try and analayze people by what they're posting and should only go by math". I already told BH that that's not going to work.

I don't know what you're talking about, but off hand I'd say "you can't rely on reads, only math" is not something I'd say, given that my chief argument for myself being town is "I voted nay on the d1 team due to a read"

I have no clue how the hell you guys can determine that somebody is a spy by wtf they post.
Sorry if I've been less than active but this game makes no fucking sense to me.


I'm assuming you think the people you have not included on your team are people you have less than
Optimal reads on. If that is the case why zona and not say palmar or rad? Who do you think are the spies this game? You say that we can't determine spies by what they post, but this is not much different from true mafia except that no one dies and scum can't communicate. If anything because scum can't talk to each other outside the thread it should be easier to find them based on their interactions.

I'm picking people I see as town. As much as I can see in this setup. I'd say one of either Palmar or Rad are spies. I don't really expect any team I propose to be accepted anyways.


If you think one of either Palmar or Rad are spies, do you think I too am a spy and it was a 2-spy n1?

Also, don't say "I don't really expect any team I propose to be accepted anyways" because even though *I* didn't expect my team to be accepted I did my best to make good reads and defend it, as should you. Proposing and voting on teams is good for us.

Alright, fair enough. I too would like to know what Jackal thinks. I'm highly suspicious of him as well, though I don't think his day2 hammer makes him any more suspicious than his day1 hammer. His defeatist attitude and non-defending of himself is discouraging, though.

Also, Rad, looking back on it, what made you pick me Day 1? Was it random or, given that you had a town read on me, what motivated that?

Here is my reasoning.

Palmar's only post, while brief, is an important piece of advice and not one I had even considered.

Blazinghand seems townish and willing to reason out and his posting is sound.

So you think there were 2 scum N1, one of which was me? Would you say you agree with Zona's analysis of "Blazinghand and Radfield are in cahoots"?

Actually, I guess the real question is, Jackal, If you think me and one of Palm/Rad is scum, do you have a solid read for a 3rd scum player? Is there an additional scummy player who makes you doubt that one of Palm/Rad is scum, as well, or are you pretty sold on that?

Welcome back! I hope you can reread and realize the Radfield/Palmar conspiracy that is afoot.

Also things are super confusing now that Jackal and I have the same portrait.

In any case, I don't trust Palmar any more. I kinda trust Radfield a little more but I still don't know what his deal was with the D1 team.

Ah yes good move claiming Town. I was under the impression, however, that we are all implicitly claiming Town. I in fact can and will say the same thing:

I'd like to say that a team that includes me is a team with a higher success rate... include me in teams please.
