Grackaroni: In this post his writes a pile of nothing to call HoD scum. my comments have been italicised

Both have posted nothing of worth so far, Palmar was even active elsewhere on the mafia forum today, and both are known for doing very little as scum. He seems fairly content with lynching a lurker. (Palmar/Errandorr are the only people he's pushed lynches for) Together this paints a picture to me, he is one of the earlier players to sign up, he was here right when the game started, he had the time to post quite a few things about the setup which tells us nothing about his allignment. In another game when he is town he is more active and does a lot of scumhunting but in this game he wants a lurker lynch.(granted it did include some meta with it) He has the time to post but chooses not to. I'll wait for more posts. -here he accepts HoD's early posting is null tell-he offers weak "meta analysis" based off of a single game-decides to wait for more information, likely because the case isn't strong enough to justify voting
Here, he decides that the person that he thinks should die right now, which is equivalent to his best lynch target for now is not HoD but Bluelightz

However the lynch is used for Information as well as killing scum, it wouldn't give the most information but more than I previously thought as a lot of people seem split on whether he is scum or not.
Question for Syllogism, Why do you dislike lynching BlueLightz? Is it because you have gotten a town read on him, (if yes plz do share), or was it just because of the way I presented his lynch. Says he would lynch bluelightz mostly because "there's much less downside to shooting him than a potentially useful town player who I think is scum and there's no way of knowing his allignment unless he takes a stance on something" which is an awful reason to kill a player.

There's a difference between saying I wouldn't mind if he is town and it might be good to kill, just because even if he is town he could be useless.
"Oh but Blazinghand I am grackaroni and have no understanding of nuance please explain"
Oh, Grackaroni, you are always so self-derprecating. Here I will help you.
If Bluelights is lynched and flips scum, that would be sweet.
If Bluelightz flips town, i'm gonna mind a lot. I'm gonna be pissed because he played like shitty dick. It will still have been the right move to have lynched him based on the info we had, and even if he is town, you have to admit he's useless-- indistinguishable from scum and actively hurtful if he, somehow, lives to LYLO.
So I guess my question for you, Captain Grack Sparrow, is, do you really think I'd be happy lynching a townie day 1? Or do you think I'm just willing to accept the consequences of my actions, like a goddamn man, make a case, like a goddamn man, and ACTUALLY VOTE AND DO STUFF.
fine. ##Vote: HarbingerofDoomBut with that I am off, Will be back in a few hours though, I promise  votes that we lynch and kill a player other than the player he said he would most like to kill 2minutes earlier this is a glaring contradiction. I cannot understand why he would post such a thing as town.
a universe in which those actions make sense would be a universe that sucks big ol' hairy BearBollocks.
It seems that he could have decided to vote because Blazinghand told him to do something and he responded by voting, but all i can see is weak/barely even reasoning behind him thinking HoD is scum and nothing of worth to justify a vote. I do not think we should let players vote for such bad reasons. I think the vote is scummy.
Does anybody thing his defence in this post is adequate? ( i do not )

To my knowledge they (we) are all relatively new to TL mafia having played a small number of games each. It seems highly unlikely that any of us will have read a large enough number of games to have strong understanding of any other players meta. If you do not have a strong understanding of a certain players meta you cannot use your own judgement of that players meta against them. You cannot compare their play to your idea of their meta and reach a conclusion.
Instead you are reliant on other players assessment of that player meta and how their play this game is supposedly incriminating. As town you should be reliant on your own judgements and reach your own conclusions and you should not vote entirely because somebody else has a reason that you cannot verify*.
Furthermore despite my limited experience of your various playstyles even i was able to spot an error in Wiggles "meta analysis Palmar is normally a very aggressive and direct townie. He is not afraid to share his reads, to call people out, and to use his vote to pressure. He tunnels, and he is happy to call out bad play when he sees it. However, this is not the Palmar that we have in this game.

Syllo, if Palmar does decide to mess around on day one again, would it not be better to wait and see how he behaves later on (like in TLXVIII), rather than just lynching him? Apparently he often trolls day1 anyway? If players who feel that they know his meta disagree about what his meta is how can i or the others trust them?
Simply, voting for a player based soley on meta that does not come from your own judgements instead of voting based on your own judgements is either bad town play or scum play. Mr. Wiggles is encouraging people to vote for bad reasons (from their perspective)
since at least half of the players in the thread have an extremely low chance of having solid enough meta on Palmar and Palmar isn't going to vote for himself, then the majority of town cannot justify an entirely meta based case vote on day 1.
-Similarly i cannot justify voting based on risk.nuke's meta.
-As far as i am concerned Grackaroni doesn't have any points worth considering against HoD.
-I also see no case against RoL.
Therefore we should go for a proper case with reasons that we can support, instead. We should lynch Grackaroni.

having read through recent townie Palmar games: nothing to see here (clicky) Palmar trolls and call people stupid stundent mafia he was smurfing as electric black Palmar make lots of reads election mafia read about half of this and filtered syllo+palamar hyra Arctocod, run for major and call people stupid Steamship mafia Palmar analyses and calls people stupid TL Mafia XLVII Palmar runs for major and calls people stupid
I have seen quite a lot of variability in how town Palmar behaves, after these i read resistance I(which isn't quite mafia) and responsibilty mafia in which palmar was 3rd party/scum.
In those games i could not confidently make inferences about his meta and correctly use them to determine whether he is scum or town, because there was not enough common day1 town traits that have become clear to me in the games of his i have read through, thoroughly. This was largely due to the variance in his play on day1. I feel like i have spent quite a lot of time reading through his post but i feel like i would need to do more to establish a strong read based on his meta that i would confidently support.

It was also to illustrate that the people that are confident in their meta read might have different meta reads. besides the logic behind my stance is independent of the quote and that logic is the important part.

It's stupid to discuss angel/demon lynching, although it is better to have the AoD lynched first we can't just magically detect them. Scum is scum regardless of A/D alignment.
Sage and Seer should not claim unless they have 2/3 scum nailed down that can be instantly lynched; Just make sure to hide breadcrumbs so we believe your claim should that occur.
...day1 is always boring. Just so you know, you should never believe an investigative claim because someone bread-crumbed it. There's no reason to believe it because of bread-crumbs, because there's no proof that they actually did what they bread-crumbed. Breadcrumbs are only useful when a player flips, because you know what role they actually are, and then you know that any breadcrumbs are likely to be sound. If you want a recent example of breadcrumbs killing the town, go read Mini Mafia X, where Wherebugsgo wrote jk three times in a post then claimed jailkeeper, and town believed him. The only person I think can legitimately breadcrumb and use that to support their claim in this game is the demonhunter, and only if they end up killing a complete innocent, or else it could be the acolyte. Also keep in mind that crumbs should be made before the corresponding day-post.
Points out a mistake and tries to encourage good play, could be scummy as it is apears helpful but in itself is quite empty. Could be townie because it is quite helpful. I would only regard this as scummy if he was not do anythig in his other posts.

In fact, given that he was staggeringly bad in Student mafia (though he WAS a replacement) it might be good to kill him just because even if he is town he could be useless.
I think we should lynch whoever is the scummiest. If Bluelightz feels scummy to you, put together a case on him and cast your vote like a man. If you think he's probably scummy, and that he'll contribute poorly (as he did in Student mafia), put your money where your mouth is. I can respect that.
This is bad. Killing a useless townie is almost never worth it. A useless townie is still a townie, and they still provide us with a vote and count towards our win condition. It's always better to lynch scum, not lynch someone because he could be scum but it doesn't matter anyways because if he's town he's useless.
In fact, I was leaning town on you at the beginning of the game, but now I think I'm going to have to re-evaluate that somewhat after your recent "case" on Bluelightz. Being bad doesn't make someone scum, so it seems weird that you'd try to attack him for being bad. There's been a lot of talk in the thread so far (though granted, most of it is based on mechanics), so who do you think is scummy? You don't make a case for why bluelightz is scum, just for why he hasn't done anything productive yet. Tries to shuttdown a bad BL case and bad votes. town like action
Regarding Lynch all Lurkers:
If you want to pursue this, you need to make the distinction between lurkers and inactives. Someone who hasn't posted all day cycles is not a lurker. They are an inactive. A lurker is someone who comes in, makes a useless post to appease everyone, and then leaves again, continuing this as necessary to keep pressure off themselves. So, even if you want to lynch all lurkers, you still have to put a modicum of effort into it, to try to figure out who's actually trying to lurk or not. Scum are very likely to be actively lurking if they're lurking. That is, they are reading the thread, and keeping up with new posts and developments while discussing with their scumbuddies, but aren't actually posting in the thread. These are sometimes easy to find, because when pressured, they'll show up nearly immediately to defend themselves before going back to lurking. So, for anyone who wants to lynch all lurkers, are you ready to make the distinction between lurking and being inactive? Someone already brought this up somewhat, when they asked what keeps scum from just staying slightly more active than the most inactive townie, and this is where the distinction comes in. Think about it.
comes up with an important condition to make the plan i had suggested work. Potentially helpful. Demonstrates that he is reading and thinking about what has been posted carefully. Town-like
Regarding set-up:
In this game, it feels like the town roles can be used in very versatile ways that people aren't really touching on. For example, the demon-hunter is a vigi for demons, but they can also serve as a detective for angels. There is nothing that protects from attacks besides going to purgatory, so if the demonhunter's target lives without going to purgatory, then they're an angel.
Same thing with the sage. Many people are focusing on the cleansing aspect of the role, but not on the investigative powers. This ties in with the corrupted players as well. While the demons want to corrupt as many townspeople as they can, this also makes it more dangerous for them, as they essentially introduce demon detectives into the game.
What I think a decent strategy would be, for as long as the sage remains alive, is to have corrupted players claim the day after being corrupted, along with their result. This means that as long as we keep the sage alive, the number of corrupted players will always remain at, or below, 1. Obviously, we shouldn't set this in stone, as we should wait until day 3 and see if the sage is still alive, along with the acolyte. From my understanding, demons can't corrupt until night 2, which means that day 3 is the earliest that we have to worry about the votes in the lynch. This means that as town, we should try to play as aggressively as we can on the first two days, when there will be the least confusion and complexity. Ideally, we will be able to kill some sort of angel, and optimally the concealer (This forces the demons to choose between corrupting or using their actions, and gets rid of a powerful anti-town ability).
We also have to keep in mind that in this game, until one faction is eliminated completely, no one can be confirmed innocent. If it comes to light that you aren't a demon, or aren't an angel, and try to use that as proof that you are town, I'll be mad and think you're scum.
I think that early in the game, town will be taking the brunt of the offensive abilities of the angels and demons. However, as the game goes on longer, they will be forced to fight each-other. If the angels only focus on killing the town, the demons will simply be able to lynch them once a day later on, and eliminate their KP to win. When the demons corrupt a player and it is successful, they know this player is town, and so that reduces the pool of player with the angels in it. So, the angels can't let the demons reach this stage of the game, and must use their KP on them as early as possible to reduce this threat. As well, the demons should be helping to find angels to lynch, as it reduces the possible KP against them, keeps the lynch off them, and also makes them less likely to be targeted for investigation or demon-hunter KP, as they look more "pro-town". In fact, I think the best angel strategy would be to use their acolyte to try to target demons, as that will either kill their competition, or let them know who's a townie, and thus who's dangerous.
Any information disadvantages we may incur from the AoD and the Concealer also apply to the other faction, and they should be aware of this as well. Thus, they want to try to eliminate their counterpart's ability to hide information, as this will allow them to maintain perfect information in the game. This also ties into the above paragraph
He makes one of the most intelligent comments about the set-up here and in this post (clicky) the fact that the setup is open specifically to balance it would imply that at some stage we as town will need to discuss the setup and this post is something that should impact the way in which we look at decisions concerning the set-up. Could be town helping town or scum trying to appear to be contributing so it does not necessarily have a bearing on his alignment however.
About voting:
Don't Hammer. While we don't have to worry about corruption until day three, we should still be careful of keeping the lynch under our control. Always check the vote-count before voting, and always vote in the thread along with your PM to ZBot, so that we can see when you voted, as well as who you voted for, before Zbot the count. No one should be hammering a lynch until later in the day if we can help it, as this will give us the most time for discussion and information gathering.
more general advice that could be helpful, fairly null in terms of alignment.
1 & 2 both try to put down a BL lynch and explain why it is bad. town points+
this only accounts for about 3 posts (+points for putting effort into posts and not spamming he thread) but they could also have been easy posts for scum to make to try to look good without adding much of value to the thread.
he then goes after Palmar and i find some - points here (click) he presents his case on Palmar. my main problem with this is that it is entirely meta based and i have explained why i think that that is of no use to over half of the thread and why for over half of the thread using his meta analysis as the basis for their vote would be bad play. Some of the assertions about Palmar 's meta don't fit with the recent games that I have read so perhaps the case is forced. (but remember i do not think i understand palmars town playstyle, so this is only valid if to you his meta read doesn't fit)
It also makes lots of sense from a mafia perspective to want to lynch players that can potentially be great assets to town and are likely to be protected at night, as early as possible. So to me this post fits a mafia agenda.
in this post (clicky) He misrepresents HoD arguing to not lynch Palmar day1 by presenting it as "keeping him alive to endgame" and then defeats that idea. Any such action is scummy because he is appears to have put down HoD point when in fact he hasn't. +scum points at the bottom highlights the lack of information and how important is is to not no-lynch. -null
he then clarifies some of his meta comments
EBWOP: When I say seen him play a game, I mean where I was in it with him, also playing.
Conclusion: He recent posts make sense from a scum perspective and as such we should be paying close attention to what he post in future (underlined should be obvious).
In his posts he makes comments about the set-up that are relevant, he appears to be helpful, but importantly, his posts indicate that he is carefully reading the thread and the quality of his comments indicate that he is putting effort in. This last point to me seems very townie additionally his case on Palmar makes sense from a Wiggles is town standpoint also.
On balance i think he is likely town and is by no means the scummiest person in the thread. they are my thoughts. concluding townie in the thread sucks, risk nuke stuff in a few hours.

On January 06 2012 08:59 Mr. Wiggles wrote: Next, is his altercation with Bluelightz, which I find very odd. Earlier, Palmar noted that he thought "it's unlikely he's scum", but then he felt the need to try to pressure him. So, something that Bluelightz posted must have caused some kind of concern for Palmar. The only thing posted by Bluelightz in this time, was his list of reads, so this must have been what set Palmar off. Pressuring Bluelightz to take a stance was fine, but the way in which Palmar did it was odd. Instead of asking Bluelightz who he would like to lynch, he instead came up with some sort of compulsive vig scenario, which doesn't add anything to the thread, and actually ended up detracting from it (see subsequent discussion with people jumping on the question instead of just discussing the lynch). Also, notice that Palmar is pressuring Bluelightz for giving a list of null and green reads, when this is the exact same thing Palmar has done up to this point in the game. It's hypocritical.
So, after he finally gets an answer from Bluelightz, he still doesn't apply any actual pressure to him. He doesn't vote for him, he doesn't ask for people to vote for him, he just said he might vote for him in the future, which does not create pressure, and is completely different from my experience with town Palmar. Palmar doesn't even attack the bad posts made by Bluelightz, where for example he said he would lynch a lurker instead of naming one. Instead, he acts rather timidly compared to the pro-town Palmar I know. He doesn't even end up answering his own question afterwards, even when asked to, refusing yet again to take a stance on scum.

that said, Palmar why didnt you push for a BL lynch? You said that you felt he was a good lynch candidate.You asked him further questions but you didn't share any conclusions making statements like "that's very... interesting" which isn't remotely helpful to somebody reading. Wiggle's was right you definitely were timid in the final post. "you better come up with something tomorrow" contrasts your earlier statements greatly and does not fit whatsoever.

Assuming wiggles is a demon/angel and that palmar is not on his team Then Wiggles know that Palmar is either a townie or angel/demon and poses a threat to wiggles because Palmar is one the stronger scumhunters and could find him. If Palmar has a power role and realises think that Wiggles is angel/demon then he will likely try to catch or kill wiggles. As someone regarded as a strong scumhunter he is more likely to be the one to catch Wiggles and convince others of his alignment. In short he presents a threat and killing him early would help Wiggles team

WoW that is quite a mess! EBWOP:
What if Wiggles is a demon/angel and Palmar is not on his team? Then Wiggles knows that Palmar is either a townie or the other faction out of Angel/Demon. And that Palmars win condition will require him to kill Wiggles. (except in the True love exception) If Palmar has a power role and thinks that Wiggles is an angel/demon then he will likely try to investigate or slay wiggles, with his or his team-mates night actions. Alternately he might try to lynch him later on using forced votes and/or make a case against him. None of these actions are good for Wiggles. As someone regarded as a strong scumhunter Palmar is likely to be the one to figure out that Wiggles is scum and then convince others that wiggles is scum. In short if Wiggles is scum and Palmar isn't on his team, then Palmar presents a threat to Wiggles and killing him early would help Wiggles team. Jackal, would you maybe do something?

I'll probably narrow the list down but I would like to keep the lynch between erandorr/risk/tyrran/refallen.

Also, syllo, why do you still want to lynch me?

I'll probably narrow the list down but I would like to keep the lynch between erandorr/risk/tyrran/refallen. Out of those erandorr appears to be by far the safest lynch and the only reason I haven't been actively pushing him as the #1 lynch was to give him more time and because it's pretty disappointing if he again decided not to play due to rolling scum. While I agree that palmar/Wiggles aren't our best lynch option, why would you rather hang Palmar? Meta? Because i feel that Wiggles case is bad. Whether it is intentionally to push an agenda or just bad i don't know. About your other targets I find risk the most scummiest. Why do you think Risk is scummiest and not Tyrran/me? If I am not mistaken then Syllos reasons to rather lynch Palmar have very little to do with the arguments Wiggles brought forward.

Same thing with jackal, and it's why I think they might be town. The only mitigating factor is the fact that syllo was on palmars case early in the game, and wiggles/jackal thought that was the green light in getting palmar lynched. I think the explanation that they're town is more likely though.
Also, syllo, why do you still want to lynch me?

Jackal58 is another person who would likely bleed red. The first thing he does is attack palmar and keeps at it using tunneling and fearmongering, while I am also slightly leaning red on palmar I don't think Jackal would hit him this hard if Jackal was town-aligned, he's just trying to get rid of palmar any means neccersary. He justifys it by saying he always attack palmar day 1 but I think this is just an excuse. He takes a break from his Palmar tunneling to rightfully rage alittle on people listing no-reads but it doesn't mean anything and he haven't contributed anything himself exept tunneling palmar. It may not be your style to post a lot day1 but perhaps your could elaborate. Other than relative inactivity what make Erandorr scum?

Yesterday i waited to see more from risk.nuke and i was sadly disappointed.
risk.nuke:
Having filtered risk.nukes past games I feel that there are A few general traits that he displays as town: -He often posts very little day 1 (<1 page) -He is very aggressive and pushes people on mistakes -He quotes people a lot and makes accusations -He is confident and assertive in offering his own opinion -He is a bit rude
This game he: -Has posted very little (<1 page) -Has been aggressive against syllogism, who voted for him -Has made a few accusations (but not followed them up) -Has been confident but avoided offering a unique opinion -Has been a bit rude Furthermore he has: -Promised content -Made excuses

My first thoughts on the setup;
Obviously, I think the best way to go about this game is to focus on killing angels in the early game. Once we get rid of the acolyte, the seer has an infinitely easier job in cleansing corruption because we can actually claim if we got corrupted and not get targetted right now as we get closer to the late game lynching demons obviously becomes more and more important, but town would have a huge benefit if we can reduce angel KP early on in the game, as this has a building effect of letting more townies live = demon corrupt has less of an impact. Even though I approve of strategy talk to give us something to talk about day 1 this doesn't fit. This is just empty. There is nothing here that can be of used by town or be discussed about.

We should never ever ever kill town "because he's useless at it". I'm not sure what you're going on about having a solid case. How does one make a solid case on someone who has 3 posts and told us they're going afk for a bit on the very first day of the game? For now, I don't have a lynch target. I want Palmar to start posting. Everyone is not tunneling, coming to the rescue so quickly you don't even properly analyse the situation. Eager to appear protown? The rest of the post is...

Honestly though, was at a friends birthday party, just got home, about to sleep.
Syllo, and others, I don't see how showing angels were a bigger threat than demons would paint me as anti-town. Keep in mind that the context of the post when it was made; all of us were discussing the setup (mainly because it was start of day 1 and it served as a topic of discussion.) Obviously the point about us not being able to tell who was demon/angel makes the whole discussion basically practically useless, but it provided a topic for us to start talking about the game (if you want useless posts, see palmars kite claim)
With that said, I'll be reading through the thread tomorrow and posting who I think are suspicious. Right now at least my previous suspicion of Palmar has been assuaged at him posting and being his usual bullying town self. This is just a stall post imo. He confirms he knows he is beeing looked at but doesn't write much for a defense. Instead he just says that tomorrow he'll write something usefull. Conclusion: I don't like his posts so far and I'm suspicious towards his hype followed by nothing but fluff. I'm waiting for his thoughts tomorrow and some better defense wouldn't hurt him. xskscxsksc and the meta. What is xsksc up to? I might be wrong but this doesn't feel like the townie xsksc I am used to.
At this point in the game there are still a number of barely-posters and discussion has not really been serious. In his next post risk.nuke even states there are two days left why woudl I commit to lynching this soon. I took the topics of the time and wrote my thoughts on them Given that this is the case this post is a very safe post to make, he doesn't need to come to any hard conclusions but it does make him appear to be contributing to the discussion topics at the time. This post is easy to make from either perspective but it is more useful for scum who doesn't wish to contribute but would like to appear to.
Given his comments about refallen it seem reasonable for risk.nuke to pressure or make a case against him, but it seems like risk just completely forgets later on.
He plays carefree, doesn't seem to giving things more then a brief thought before having an opinion which leads to him often changing his mind. Not traits that strikes me as townish in a complicated mafia game HoD already pointed out that these are typically townie traits, so i am left to infer that the "complicated" setup is what in your view makes it un-town-like?

The "everyone looks town!" is surely incriminating, but I am not finding the carefree being incriminating. Why would town get nervous when accused? They know they are innocent. Explaining themselves, yes, but I know I get annoyed, not nervous. It depends. If you are having a single one or two people accusing you, you get annoyed. Like I am now now with syllo. Or example in steamship prplhz tried to get me lynched on a bad case. I got annoyed. Then there are situations where you have a majority of people looking suspiciously at you. You've likely messed up and done something to justify their suspicions but you need to defend yourself. If you mess up town mislynch you. There is a situation I would be nervous in. You talk about the number of people accusing you if you are town, you say that if you are town and in your situation then you should react the way that you did, by getting annoyed. You back it up by saying that you got annoyed before when you were town. You then say that when a number of people pressure you because you have made a mistake then you need to defend youself, but that if you have messed up that town should lynch you and it would be your fault. You say that if you had messed up and were under pressure you were be nervous. None of that answer the actually question. It simply serves to try to paint you as town-like, and if it relates to BL at all then it is to imply that he messed up that town should kill him and lays ground for a potential mislynch. All of those purposes seem scummy to me.

Blazinghand quit floating around and write something helpfull yourself. Here he attacks syllogism for calling him out on his actions. As town risk.nuke typically calls people out for actions he disapproves of yet in this game when syllogism does it "There is nothing pro town about calling him out?" Perhaps risk.nuke believes his usual town play is anti-town?
He says that he had an agenda to "see who would comment on his last post what they would say and who would push to lynch those players", this really doesn't seem like a big plan that syllogism had ruined and having a secret agenda that you expect players players like syllogism to pick up on but not comment on so as to allow you to carry out that agenda seems highly anti-town. Town players shouldn't have anything to hide (except a blue roles) and this "ruined agenda" seems very un-town-like Why isn't risk.nuke being his more open self?

When there are a number of candidates already being discussed why would you present 1 paragraph about a player being scummy and pick a player that, at the time was in absolutely no danger of being lynched? Perhaps he wants to spilt the vote or try to get a no-lynch. When serious discussion about who to lynch had began risk pipes in to sheep a case and maybe start a case. He does not follow either case up and he does not vote. This does not make sense if he truly feels like Jackal is the best lynch and he is town, or if he feels that jumping on Erandorr will kill scum.

@risk.nuke Your defence is evasive at best:
@risk.nuke Isn't carefree play usually a townie trait? How does seeming carefree implicate bluelightz? HoD asked this^
You say you answer him here, in This post (clicky)
I'm not sure what you're meaning here, we're talking about beeing nervous and beeing carefree and I think I answered that. I think your mind is living in a world where mislynches doesn't exist.
You didn't really answer the carefree town question. You just talked about behaviour under pressure as town, you made no links between how town or scum would act and how BL was acting, so you definately didn't answer the second and more important question of how BL behavior was implicating him.
@risk.nuke please explain why exactly you felt that those traits do not stike you as townlike? You didn't answer when i rephrased the question here either, but you did make a bunch of unhelpful comments.
I don't see the point of lynching palmar in a multiteam setup. Worst case he is town and we just lyched palmar. Best case he is scum and he can't help us find the other scumteam, That's why I got really suspicious of all the vets wanting him out asap, wiggles sort of dodged me because I really liked his initial big post. I said that some people are okay with the reasoning but that some would find is suspicious (Wiggles had made the point) but basically because auto-deciding not to vote for a player and disregarding their play would be something scum would rather do if the person was on their team. I will add that the problem with your argument is that you could very well maintain that stance into day 2 or 3, even if the evidence for that player (in this case Palmar) being scum was overwhelming! In a game with such a low proportion of town it is crucial that town players can get behind lynches together and thus a stance like yours could be very anti-town (depending on how long you maintain it).
Why did you simply re-state your reasoning? That doesn't affect the point whatsoever.I didn't even disagree with your reasoning, i just said that some might find it scummy.
I haven't called everyone who votes for me scum wtf? well...

Your dismissal confirms this
I'm wasn't joking, judging from how I looked it was pretty obvious (or atleast a good chance) scum would slowly push for my lynch to protect their own. so you felt that scum were slowly voting for you?surely that would mean that you felt that more than one of the people voting for you were scum? therefore 2/3 or all of the people voting for you were scum
There is no reason not to state what you think, If I were to come in two days and say, well I thought jackal was scummy two days ago people would either not belive me or legitimitly ask me why the hell I didn't say something Do you mind explaining why you have not been saying what you think about the important issue of the lynch?
Blazinghand was acting high on coffe shouting all over the place how erandorr is hustling us, I didn't much get him. He may have been acting silly but a quick filter click would have removed the need to ask a question. Why are you addressing a comment about a post "asks a question" that has no bearing on your alignment?
People doesn't love my townplay I said people may know and love your townplay so this quote from you is not only irrelevant to my case but it is also incorrect. Why would you make a point like that in the first place? You are trying to paint my conclusion as wrong but you can't so you are trying to split hairs to make what i am saying carry less weight.
I haven't given any serious contributions because I'm not good day 1 and I know it. And if you want to see one of my case you'll unfortunatly have to wait untill someone says something I can use because I can't magicly spawn cases.
But you did promise more content and you haven't supplied it. You don't need to maically spawn cases you need to look at players behaviour and analyse it as you have in the past. You might want to do.
Even if you don't construct a case you really haven't made it clear where you stand with regards to todays lynch. We have less than six hours and possibly 1 other candidate that could realistically be lynched yet you haven't shared you opinion, this is quite concerning.
Some people are good at finding scum day1, I'm not so I let them do their thing while I don't them in trying to do something I would probably fail with. Isntead I try to find somehting my own way, and setting a trap isn't scummy. Lying is scummy. Not saying what you were doing afterwards is scummy. If you have something to say then say it, don't hint that you think i am a liar.
I think your mind is living in a world where mislynches doesn't exist. Why don't you attack my arguments rather than attacking me? +my lurker post was entirely based on the fact that day1 mislynches are common and that we should adjust our play to put in a good position if a mislynch does happen.
If I were a scum why would I not pressure him if as you say I had good reason to, exept if you think I'm refallens scumbuddy
Why don't you explain why you didn't go after him rather than trying to put words in my mouth(post)?
If you think I've contradicted myself you need to go back and reread that or repost it to me so I can correct you Here:
It depends. If you are having a single one or two people accusing you, you get annoyed. Like I am now now with syllo. Or example in steamship prplhz tried to get me lynched on a bad case. I got annoyed. Then there are situations where you have a majority of people looking suspiciously at you. You've likely messed up and done something to justify their suspicions but you need to defend yourself. If you mess up town mislynch you. There is a situation I would be nervous in. here you explain how you feel town specifcally a town risk.nuke reacts under pressure.

Also you attack syllogism for doing something on day 1 that you typically do as town on day 1. (calling people out on what you think is scummy or BS). How is this not a contradiction?
You really haven't invalidated my conclusion so i would prefer it if you would avoid profanities like "bogus" i am very sensitive you know. You have responded to comments that aren't accusations and you have avoided actually answering the main issues that i presented.
I also think you shouldn't decide to completely ignore the argument that you are playing in a way that does match your previous play as town, particular as you better than anyone know the reasons for you actions and should be able to explain why you are acting differently.
So my vote is staying on you
@everyone else what time do you think would be best for the lynch? I can stay for another 2 and a half hours, and still get a good nights sleep.
