I really hope you guys know what you are doing. Also I'd like someone to shoot Bluelightz, based on his constant fixation on lynching cccalf, and not doing anything much else. A read of his filter is probably the best way to do it. I've pulled a couple of em which also have some strange undertones. On March 28 2012 08:29 Bluelightz wrote: herp derp, I feel that the CC argument is stronger ##Unvote ##Vote: Cyber_Cheese EchelonTee looks townie, he has substance unlike say, cccalf? Here he soft defends ET and simultaneously accuses cccalf, all while voting CC. Was the second clause necessary? Is the line of thinking really 'ET can't be scum because cccalf is so much more scummy'? "ET looks town because he has substance" is reasonable. "ET looks town because he has more substance than cccalf" is quite dubious, especially as he isn't forthright pushing a cccalf lynch, but merely commenting on it as he votes CC. On March 30 2012 10:38 Bluelightz wrote: I can see why Sinensis is scummy, he has posted usseless questions, he also has shared his reads, etc, though. But today, I believe cccalf is the better choice for Lynching. Not a solid stance on Sinensis. He "can see why Sinensis is scummy", but what is his actual stance? Its very neutral. Very much so. And then he offers cccalf as a lynch alternative again. He isn't trying to decide if Sinensis is scum based on his actions. His thought process again is "Sinensis could be scum, but I think cccalf is scum so I'm going with that". Seriously, why is he forgoing all discussion for the sake of lynching cccalf on the basis that he hasn't posted anything? Why is he acting like cccalf is the only scum, the very standard of scum and that if people look better than him they must be town? I'd recommend shooting Bluelightz. Read for yourself - you don't have to post. I'm pretty sure according to raw balance we have a vig or something, but I'm guessing it could be a conditional thing. | ||

There is a SU one and a US one, and both of them have to target the same guy to make a kill. In which case, if there is a US/SU vig, shoot Blue. We don't want the SU one shooting him but the US one not, and viceversa. C_C's case wasn't that good, here is mine: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=322686¤tpage=21#407 I don't have much to add to this case, considering Blue didn't do anything worthwhile since D1 (just check his filter) Here is something I haven't noticed before: On March 28 2012 14:06 Sinensis wrote: Every game I have played with Bluelightz this happens. I would go so far as to say voting for Bluelightz day 1 is a scum tell on TL mafia. On March 31 2012 13:44 Sinensis wrote: Look. There are 7 votes for zentor. So unless me and/or Bluelightz are scum, which for the sake of this argument we are not, then there are three scum voting for MrZentor right now. Would mafia vote for mafia? On April 01 2012 14:55 Sinensis wrote: The votes have been so bad there is absolutely no way to get an alignment read on anyone. I am pretty sure Bluelightz is town, and I am pretty sure cccalf was noob mafia. That's it. Everything else is so beyond screwed up there is no sense to be made out of anyone. At this point johnnywup, Nemesis, and gonzaw could easily be scum too. Who the f knows. Seriously? Both tried VERY HARD to get cccalf killed, avoided ALL other disscussion, and either defend themselves without any justification(Sin->Blue), or are completely wishy washy regarding the other (Blue->Sin) This is the plan then: -Vig shoot Blue tonight -We lynch Sinensis tomorrow. | ||

I also expect an explosion of activity from mafia D3 - depending on how the night plays out they will make up roughly under half of town. Also I'd caution fake claims. Mafia probably will only require 1 mislynch - be very wary of fake claims. I wont be here for daybreak. I posted all my reads. Let's do this guys. | ||

The thing is that we need to be VERY careful right now. We can't start spouting whole scumteams at this moment, since only 1 of them needs to be town for us to lose. Check what happened on Newbie IV, everybody started posting whole scumteams, which were wrong, making the townies in those think the ones that posted were scum, and basicly losing town the game. I think we need to focus on Sinensis (once Blue is vigged hopefully), and see how other people react to it. Remember that scum win with only 1 misslynch, so they might as well try their hardest to make that misslynch tomorrow. | ||

I'd check out ET with (hopefully) a bluelightz flip tonight. I wouldn't totally rule out a full out bus either - they can afford to lose a couple of members if it buys them enough time to fulfill the other wincon. Basically it would be best to solidify reads tonight before daybreak so that they can't WIFOM or do whatever like that. p.s. Happy birthday Hassybaby! | ||

The thing is that if it's a SU, then it's almost impossible that we can win, EVEN if we successfully lynch all scum. | ||

PREAMBLE: If you wish to dispute any points I make, do not argue 'But froggy some of these points apply to you too'. Rather say 'froggy, you are wrong because either 1. your logic is wrong because of X and Y or 2. Your evidence is flawed because of Z. Dismissing anything I write because you think I'm scum is a scum move i.e. OMGUS-ing, unless you can back it up by 1. or 2. I present to you my strongest of three scum-reads (in order of conviction): I. Bluelights (or lurking the Nazi way) As opposed to 3C (who we have no info on), BL has been posting the absolute minimum, enough to appear less scummy than 3C (or at least more active), and, lets be honest, with VE/BH Day 1 townie-induced chaos and Mr Z's Day 2 townie induced-chaos Mafia had no reason to post anything risky (i.e. sowing the seeds of discord themselves... as we were doing that ourselves). His first post of content was this: Reads, Reads! Blazinghand ---> Catapaulted to very sure is townie from his recent posting(Active, Pressuring people, etc) and being funny and awesome in starcraft ^_^ Some random summaries MrZentor --> Has been following Discussion, has not provided any reads, I'd love some reads from him. gonzaw --> Has followed discussion, setup speculation, I'd love some reads and more content from him . ET --> Townie, has followed discussion pressed people to post, preety townie C_C ---> Needs to step up, he has nothing of substance, has not taken a stance on anything yet, I want reads, willing to lynch depending on what he post's next. About as sheepish as it gets, posting who he thinks is townie, thus appearing to be pro-town but in fact contributing nothing. Don't get me wrong, knowing who you think is town is good, but if that is all you contribute then town is not going to win. HIs reads are also oddly certain, it seems like an easy scum move to post who you know is town, so that when they flip you can go 'hey see how townie I am!'. As town, and that early on there was no way making such 'certain' town reads. All his next posts throughout day 1 are 'who he thinks is town' posts. Absolutely useless day 1. Gives no content and adds nothing. He then sheeps on ET, proceeds to sheeps C_C (ok... we all did so not a factor) and says that actually he thinks ET is town (wtf). Day 2 he posts this: If you guys would like to lynch gonzaw, that would be fine with me, Ill change my vote asap if you guys do want to. Some more reads, I think that Nemesis is town, he has been following discussion, not lurking, has provided reason for his vote on Cyber_Cheese. Wtf! Thats not even sheeping whilst agreeing with someone's case (something we all pretty much did Day 1), its unconditional sheeping. This IMHO is the scummiest post I've seen so far. He then proceeds to want to kill 3C for lurking, an easy lynch to bandwagon, whether 3C is town or scum. The rest of his posts are oneliners. Part 2 to follow... (in an hour or so, giving people enough time to respond appropriately; I don't like multi-case posts) | ||

If cccalf was mafia I'd expect more effort rallying people around MrZentor early in the day when we were discussing possible candidates. Rather, it is quite the opposite with people (of whom Sinensis is included) who suggested and prodded cccalf into the spotlight as an alternative candidate. There is absolutely no reason to think DYH is townie; what sloosh is saying is pure WIFOM; you realize that you rallied people around MrZentor, which corroborates your idea that if cccalf is mafia, they would want to push towards MrZ? What if you're Mafia, mr sloosh? now we're in a situation where we have absolutely no information on cccalf and he is going to be alive in LYLO for the rest of the game. joy. | ||

Your first cluster doesn't prove any scumminess at all: there is absolutely nothing with pointing out people's logic is bad. If you actually read what I bolded, you can tell that in that cluster the only person I call suspicious is MrZentor, which is where I put my vote. I call gonzaw "unclear". I don't need to follow that up, he's not my number 1 scumread. I call zelblade's logic "nonsensical". I don't need to follow that up, I was just defending myself. I say that it's weird you lurked all D1. I'm going to follow that up. I say that mr wup's post is bad. It's not a scumtell to post something dumb, I don't need to follow that up. So... yeah. Me talking to other is scummy? damn maybe i should just lurk into oblivion like our friend cccalf. Your second cluster is simply wrong. If you truly believe that giving out reads like candy is pro-town, then you are either unintentially or intentionally forgetting that game that we lost as town. Remember all those idiots posting at night "Oh I think Alderan is town!!! derpa derp". And meanwhile, I and a few other called Janaan "obvious townie" and he gets shot. It is BAD TOWN PLAY to reveal your reads until RIGHT BEFORE THE DEADLINE becuase otherwise SCUM CAN ACT ON IT!!!! It's absurd for you to say that I've been unwilling to scumhunt when your D1 contributions were nil and your D2 contributions were to tunnel MrZ. You aren't dumb, I think you're being willful in ignoring this. When discussing a lynch, the right thing to do is to focus on a handful of candidates. Want to hear my opinion of gonzaw? The fact that he writes really big posts every time means it is hard to dissect his reads. The fact that other people have acted wildly anti-town (sinensis/MrZ sigh...) means that he gets a free pass to look townie if he writes look townie for no good reason. He has also been pushing, in my opinion, townies all game. But is this hard evidence? Nope! am I willing to bet losing this game? Nope!!!! So I push people who I see as more scummy. You calling me suspicious for playing optimally isn't you being dumb; you're smarter than this. You're pulling the strings lol. | ||

Sloosh I'm not the only one that noticed that sloosh didn't push anyone or build any cases D1 right? And he only pushed MrZ after he had already been brought up. META TIME OH NO. slOosh is one of the loudest seminewbies I know and he's very very active as both blue and green. What he's done is scum 101: 1. lurk D1 while town leaders scream at each other. 2. power a lynch through D2, somehow avoid any fallout. don't got time to flesh this out, but can SOMEONE look at the filter of the dude who pushed MrZ over? When people flip don't just ignore the traindrivers. cccalf/DYH the fact that people keep on shying away from him, and now even think he's townie??? absurd. Should've been shot N1 and now we're trapped with him til endgame. he's been scummily lurking. there's no other way to put it froggy has been contentless for most of game, doesn't have the same active tone as other people. gtg bye | ||

Also Nemesis until your "analysis" of my play becomes something other than quoting 3 of the first things I said in the game out of context and saying "Also he seems to have a habit of inflating useless topics," I don't have time for you either.

Anyway the bolded part isn't true I have shared every read I have had this game, and I would be scum hunting but the person I am suspicious of hasn't responded yet so in the mean time... there is this. Note that my case against him from the beginning was that HE WAS NOT INTERESTED IN SCUMHUNTING and taking very neutral stances against players. But he somehow tries and spin that as a "new reason" and tries to put suspicion to me even though he stated before he thought I was town. So which is it? Town wouldn't have any reason to make up reasons for lynching someone and here you are trying to imply that I am just making up reasons to think that I am scum.
