Anyone know if there's a refresh function on the android system?
Press the button that brings up settings screens or what not (usually a physical button) and refresh should be an option.

I took a look through everyone's filter looking for one specific thing.
Who, if anyone, didn't touch the lurker issue at all?
Why did I look for this? Cuz a scum player would surely see attacking lurkers as an ultra risky strat, especially day 1.
redff never mentions lurking once. Refallen never mentions lurking once. Jackal58 never mentions lurking once. Zephirdd never mentions lurking once. Cwave never mentions lurking once.

So the primary way of finding mafia is just by lynching players who aren't contributing to the town but aren't completely lurking. Scum will be the players trying to ride the line between been too scummy and getting lynched or being too towny and getting shot. Town, on the other hand, shouldnt be afraid of shots so they'll be the towniest towns.
GGQ is outright saying that scum arent lurkers.

How. The. Fuck.... How is MZ hustling?
Lanaia feels that lurking doesnt say a thing about align.
So I count that as a FOS worthy fact especially at GGQ and Lanaia.
Lurking has EXTREMELY clear plus sides for a scum player in this setup and there is HUGE plus sides for a scum player to establish that it is ok to lurk or that saying lurking isnt a good scum strat.
Lurking is probably the only non breadcrumb way (at least day 1) for the scum to say IM SCUM day 1. It prevents them, from killing each other. This point has already been made but it deserves to be in this post next to these players names.
Once again:
redff never mentions lurking once. Refallen never mentions lurking once. Jackal58 never mentions lurking once. Zephirdd never mentions lurking once. Cwave never mentions lurking once. GGQ says that lurkers are not scum because the scum will not want to lurk. Lanaia says that lurking is a null tell on alignment.

Now for a closer look at one lurker in particular-
GGQ.
You have 15 total posts in this thread. Your first 4 posts have nothing to do with this game.
You have filler posts like this in there:

How. The. Fuck.... How is MZ hustling? Oh yes you're right i should have pushed my massive case on MZ with his 2 posts of filter. OH NO WAIT HE HAS ONLY 2 POSTS OF FILTER. You know I sort of thought my original one-paragraph case was self-evident. I kinda figured other people would be like "hey you know what this guy is lurking pretty hard and trying to lead us by the nose" but it turns out all we are are sheeple in here and we are getting hustled what did you want some freaking phd thesis on the two posts MZ has written? God you're terrible 1. You don't need to be rude. 2. All you have is "oh, he hasn't been active and therefore is scum" which is not something that logically follows. If it applies to him, it has to reply to everyone. 3. You're being unnecessarily aggressive. Calm down. Why didn't you try to push this earlier then? How do you know he's trying to lead us anywhere? Real life stuff can pop up. Just saying the same thing over and over and over isn't going to get people to listen to you. 1) ?? 2) yes it does, and it applies to everyone, and he is the most egregious example 3) I wasn't here in the thread earlier, and i come back and everyone's wagoned onto some BS lynches. We only have 5 minutes left so a voteswitch isnt' happening. I'd like to say more about MZ but it turns out... hey! he's like got no content to analyze. Why are you defending him so much mr scumbuddy Well, I suppose I might as well lock in the lesser of two evils. ##Vote: Radfield Scum doesn't know who other scum is. You just called me scum. Why aren't you voting me? If you keep trying to get people to go on your wagon, and if they do, they'll still be sheeple as you so politely call them. Refallen, you have literally one minute. You know what scum does day 1? They don't know who other scum is so they try to be unhelpful and push crappy lynches and crappy arguments (see: your entire idea on the bum lynch and massive attempts to derail MZ switch) or the lurk (MZ). How ironic

I might not be back before lynch, so if I die I suspect bumatlarge, Cwave, and blazinghand. After that look at redFF, refallen and lanaia.
Some of those aren't completely unrelated to the game but they are at best comments on things already said that do not help in the least in finding scum.
So 5 throw away filler posts, 4 posts not about the game and 6 real posts.
You are lurking so hard and you have also claimed that the scum won't be lurkers even though it is very VERY clear (and was pointed out a long time ago) why the scum will want to lurk.
Scum.
Found.

The tl'dr of my case on GGQ:
Hey guys, Lurkers aren't scum don't worry look for people that aren't lurking and lynch them.
BRB I need to lurk a shit ton.
He literally said that.
Literally.

Ok not literally.
G'Night thread see you guys tomorrow.

Don't pretend that the Radfield debacle isn't important or a good source of information. Refallen may get a reprieve here depending on what happens with redFF, but I personally don't get what he's doing at all. If he has some kind of power that activates when people vote him, then why doesn't he ask for everyone to vote him? The rules don't actually say anything about when the lynch ends, I think it's just at the end of the day. I don't think there's any kind of majority hammer. Also this seriously caught my eye.

Whats your suspicion of me based on? I dont like random FOS at people, give reasons!
I think that the radfield lycnh is ofc a valid source of info but I think GGQ is getting away with some seriously scummy shit here. I would be doing such a huge disservice to notice that shit and not comment on it.
GGQ says that lurkers arent scummy and that scum will post enough to not be called lurkers. With the setup in mind, lurking is so pro scum that I dont even know how he felt able to say that except in order to cover for the scummy move of lurking... which he is doing.

And are you saying that lurking is trully something that only town would do??? You said that earlier. Defend that position.

I will weigh in on the vote leader when I get off work. This game day kinda slipped by me and I feel like the thread has really just moved past where I am...
Anyways, ill be posting in like 2 hours.

This post will probably be the reason I end up voting you over GGQ. A hobby of yours? Wtf man so your hobby is to post lies to piss people off?

Seeing as the OP makes no mention one way or the other I think there is no way to answer that Lanaia.
Is GGQ up for being modkilled at this point for inactivity?

Jackal, be useful and respound to that post instead of posting stupidness.

So scamp, refallen, and ggq might expire today?
I think that sounds just fine!

Alright. I have sat back, died, slept off the feeling of death, and then sat back a bit more. Apathy took over me and stayed my hand for a bit but as I start to really feel better I find myself overwhelmed by two feelings. Bewilderment and Anger.
There is constant accusations of associations and how loud player X is scum or loud player Y is dumb and X isn’t scum but loud player Z is actually the scum. People are ignoring a lot that has been said in favor of calling each other names and the like.
Basically, I think this town, no this whole thread, has become completely filled with useless conjecture that isn’t based in sound logic concerning the setup and the actions of the people in it. I am going to make an effort to bring the discussion back to that now.
Some conclusions that I am operating on that the people in this thread need to at least consider: The mafia are going to act very independently this game. With that in mind the mafia players are each going to act WAY more self serving than even in a traditional game. They have to. Another thing, saying if one person is scum/town then another is scum/town is a stupid course of action in this setup. Yes stupid.
The reason that we haven’t lynched a single scum AND that scum haven’t killed one of their own is simply because the scum are laying low. I pointed this out before and I even found the single player that is abusing this idea to the highest level. This was ignored in favor of lynching a person who claimed to not have had time to read for very long before vote was required or he would be mod killed. As if it would make any sense for a scum player that is playing to win to pop in and last second vote AND to draw huge amounts of attention to it. Such a gambit would only make sense in a setup where the mafia has access to power roles that manipulate night actions (framer roleblocker) (if you think the mafia DOES have such PRs say so, I take it as a balance issue for them not to… did the previous sleeper cell game have mafia power roles?).
The mafia don’t know who each other are and they don’t want to be lynched. Starting with the start of day 2, it became clear that lurking was going to be largely acceptable because we had ‘better’ targets to lynch. With the loud players voting off other loud players and the mafia killing off loud players… it seems the only ones that have an easy way to live out their days is the silent lurkers. Starting with today, I will be pressuring everyone to justify GGQ’s actions as anything that isn’t anti-town because I cannot see a single reason for a player to play like he is except one of a self preserving nature.
So the primary way of finding mafia is just by lynching players who aren't contributing to the town but aren't completely lurking.
GGQ said that on day 1. I brought this up before, but it needs to be brought up again. This is a complete scum post. It outlines a way of lynching players that are not lurkers as a primary goal.
Other than that, GGQ only deems it worthy to post one liners and to randomly throw FOS out at multiple people at a time with no evidence. He is creating confusion while adding nothing at all to any case. He also posted a one liner calling a case on him shit.
HE goes inactive for a long time and then drops in to say and I quote:
Did you think I was joking when I said I had no time to chat?
Sorry but I think it’s honestly pretty obvious at this point. The people that are scummiest are the people that everyone is talking about lynching.
My god. How did you guys let him get away with this?
The most he gives us to add to a discussion yesterday is that his gut instinct is to vote meapak/scamp. He does this after a sheep vote on refallen gets called scummy. That was also a last minute vote.
If you have NOT read his filter, you are being a lazy moron. Its short and boring and adds nothing new about anything other than the fact that it confirms that he is lynching and sheeping his way out of every lime light.
Come on guys, it’s the town’s job to prevent the scum from lurking a way to victory and in this setup we should be MORE wary of it not less.
That or we can go back to seeing which loud case about a loud player generates the most votes from the people that post small tidbits and then all sheep onto that person. That seems to be working out pretty well (for the scum).
