Hi again dahdum! I hope you aren't mafia again ><

I'm all for lynching a lurker, but we should definitely wait a bit for everyone to have a chance to post.

What... I said that purely in jest, teasing him about the newbie game that just completed. I didn't think you guys would go batshit insane over it.

He posted less than an hour into the day and he makes a reference to a previous game. I don't know what happened in the previous game, but it seems like dahdum was mafia and Firmtofu wasn't and that the town lost (I infer this from his little >< face). It seems like he is complimenting dahdum's play and hopes they are on the same side. What's bad about that?

As for his lynching lurkers stance, he was like one of the first posts, so no one really posted and it seems he was stating that we should wait to judge people until they posted. If people still lurked after a while then he seems to support lynching the lurkers. This isn't a terrible stance if I am interpreting him correctly, so I want clarification from him on this, though.

Crossfire put it best. dahdum was in a game before this and I just commented on how I hope he isn't scum again because he played well last game. I didn't think I was acting suspicious at all, but apparently it was? Regardless, we should switch up our votes onto some more scummy targets.

There are certain people that are playing very pro-town right now, but may be doing so just to gain the town's trust. It's extremely hard to tell from just Day 1 behavior, so I think our best for a lynch would be to hunt those people who are genuinely acting scummy or playing poorly.

Anacletus seems like the perfect target to start.

I am only voting because I don't have much to add. I would also like to point out that *if* we hang tofu for his suspicious behavior and he is mafia then we can rule out those voting as being mafia, no?

But if he's town, shit.

This quote is suspicious, for reasons mentioned previously my numerous people. However, there is an interesting phrasing of words I find rather intriguing.

See bold. What motive would anyone have to say that sentence. Is it not already a statement of fact? Why did he feel the need to reiterate something that is quite obvious to everyone that is playing: If we lynch Tofu and he's town, then we are in trouble.

Well, no shit Sherlock. Generally when town people die, the mafia gets farther ahead.

Here's my theory. Anacletus knows I am town, because I'm not on his mafia team. Therefore, he knows if and when I get lynched, I will flip town. That statement is guilt insurance and a scum tell because of it. He is trying to insure himself now so that later, he can say "Aw crap, well I was wrong, but look at my previous post where I admitted I might be wrong!"

When town members vote people, they don't know whether they are right or wrong. When mafia vote people they know the exact alignment of the person they are voting. I believe this knowledge just leaked from Anacletus the mafia.

Not sure if I'm supposed to vote in a different format from the other newbie game, but I checked the rules and it says vote like this:

##vote Anacletus

Please forgive my terrible punctuation and sentence structure in my previous post. I only got 3 hours of sleep last night.

Holy balls guys, calm down and think before you post for a bit.

You are all listing all of the people you deem suspicious AND least suspicious. Why? We only need to find ONE guy today and that guy is supposed to be BAD not GOOD. With all these lists of scummy to non-scummy, we are just giving the mafia advice on how to play better. Instead of showcasing your reads of EVERYONE, just tell us the reads of the people you think are scummy. You are doing mafia's work for them if you tell everyone who you think is the most pro-town. i.e. me.

That being said, I would like to shift our bandwagon because it's becoming a bit superfluous at this point, with a lot of the same points repeated and the same fail defense from Analectus.

Here's a post I found extremely scummy from a different person.

Well though i still think Anecletus seems the scummiest, but he does make a... point i guess about BioSC id need more proof though than to change my vote to him, ill keep it in mind when reading his posts. I still find this a weak bandwagon forming as i stated before, does anyone want to respond to my post before? (feeling ignored D: )

Wait, did I just read that? In the same post, two sentences right next to each other seem to contradict one another. That's odd. Let me explain if you didn't catch it.

The first sentence:
1) Acknowledges that Anecletus is scummy
2) Asserts that Anecletus has a good point about BioSC

The second sentence:
1) States that the bandwagon on Anecletus is "weak"
2) Wants someone to read his unsubstantial post from before

Isn't 1) from the second sentence somewhat contradictory to 1) from the second?

So yeah, I have another elaborate theory for you. I'll be your friendly neighborhood theoretic translator so that you can know what's going on in my head.

Sentence 1: "Well though i still think Anecletus seems the scummiest, but he does make a... point i guess about BioSC id need more proof though than to change my vote to him, ill keep it in mind when reading his posts."

Possible Translation if both Anecletus and Darkfirex5 are mafia: Anecletus is a goner at this point... but maybe there's a chance I can save him by lending support for his accusation of BioSC (which btw is complete BS). I'll say that Anecletus is scummy so that no one thinks I'm suspicious.

Sentence 1: "I still find this a weak bandwagon forming as i stated before, does anyone want to respond to my post before? (feeling ignored D: )"

Possible Translation if both Anecletus and Darkfirex5 are mafia: I'll now discredit the wagon on Anecletus in hope of saving him, but I can't outright support him without risking buddying.

.....................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Now remember, this is only a possible theory. I'm just putting it out there so we can discuss it. Its only useful if Ancletus flips mafia, otherwise it's best to throw it out the window.

tl;dr: I have a theory that darkfire and anecletus are both mafia. Read for the excruciatingly boring details.

I think Broodking's responses to the pressure are much more telling than the actual initial pressure itself. austinmcc is completely right that Broodking is the scummiest person alive now.

The terrible defense didn't exactly help his case. No roleclaim, no nothing. It was all around terrible play by him and I don't blame any of us for voting him.

I'll be free to analyze all the posts in a few hours. Until then, I urge you all to scrutinize the people who jumped on the wagon(including me) with little to no explanation.

Real quick, I'm not done reading, but I just had to quickly point this out. NO ONE seems to be questioning austinmcc at all?

wtf. Look at the facts guys. This guy completely switched the direction of a lynch on a scummy player onto a blue town. Yeah, he's been playing pro-town, but that doesn't negate the fact that his actions have led to a deficit in our numbers!

If Anacletus flips mafia, austinmcc is nearly certainly mafia. Everything points to it. Buddying is already evident in Anacletus' posts but I'm going to read more to find a substantial argument in favor of this.

That took a fuckton of time...

ANYWAY, that being said, here's a preliminary list of who *disliked* who on day 1. These suspect lists are based on who contributed to a full-fledged discussion when accusing these people, as opposed to just voting them. We can compare this to changed perceptions on day 2, if we have enough time.

Main ACCUSATIONS for each player(Excluding bandwagon votes):
FirmTofu- Anacletus and BroodKingEXE
Darkfirex5- BioSC
dahdum- FirmTofu(Later retracted), BioSC
Mufaa- Jailbreaker
BroodKingEXE- FirmTofu(Later retracted), Anacletus,
Hyaach-Anacletus
austinmcc- Anacletus and BroodKingEXE
Unforgiven_ve- FirmTofu(Later retracted)
BioSC-Darkfirex5, dahdum (Anyone who accuses him)
Crossfire99-Anacletus
ShiaoPi-Anacletus, BroodKingEXE

Note: A single minded focus is more akin to town play because town generally are more likely to tunnel vision with limited information.

Please let me know if I'm missing anything.

With the vote changes of day 2, I believe the most likely mafia TEAM seems consists of dahdum and darkfire. Why?

The buddying is fairly obvious when they choose to attack BioSC. However, this is probably wishful thinking. dahdum has accused darkfire before, but very lightly. He has a lot more posts agreeing with him than disagreeing.

If we make the assumption that mafia are more careful than that, we can sub out dahdum for one of these potential (lurk) candidates:

-Unforgiven
-Crossfire
-Hyaach

We can also almost make the statement that if darkfire is mafia, then BioSC and austin probably are NOT. This lynch would provide us information on two others right off the bat, and probably dahdum as well. Considering we have little time left, I am going to have to place my vote in support of this lynch.

##Vote Darkfirex5

A dahdum lynch would also be decent because it would provide us information on Darkfire and possibly Mufaa, but I do not think it is as beneficial to us as of right now.

darkfirex5, dahdum, Anacletus
vs.
BioSC, Mufaa, austin?

These seem to be the core alliances, but I can't seem to figure out which side is the right side. I'm going to stick with my vote for now. Sorry for all the grammatical mistakes in my previous post, I am trying to rush to fit everything in before the deadline.

At the moment, i think that BioSC, Anacletus, you and me are twonie. I'm townie and the fact that Anacletus stuck up for me, well now i know he is townie as well.

This is pretty much the nail in the coffin for me. As soon as he starts getting pressured, he backs off of BioSC in order to save his own skin. If you remember back to Day 1, this guy was all out attacking BioSC and now suddenly switches his stance into him being town. I call bullshit.

I'll respond to that after the lynch I guess. We certainly need to start drawing inferences about who the scum team as a whole might be, but I dunno about those setups.

Yeah, I just rushed through that. Give me some time and I can analyze it better. Maybe during night?

Unforgiven, please vote Darkfire. This is our only shot. I believe AT LEAST 2/3 votes on BioSC are mafia.

This is all or nothing.

now Tofu has the suspicion he really wants me dead, at this point matters less becuse well ow you know he's scummy. I'm onto mafia and even if i pop town when i die you will know who to target. It's over for you mafia, also austincc any response?

Consider this, Day 1 you accused BioSC of mafia with a single-minded focus then Day 2 randomly decided he was town. Then when you were about to be voted to death, you decided to lynch him anyway. How is that not scummy yo?

If anything, your death should be attributed solely to you because you've made a very bad case for yourself.

My mistake. My prime targets now are austinmcc/BioSC, Mufaa, and Crossfire99.

I think Unforgiven is simply indecisive and that Anacletus and dahdum are playing very deceitfully if they are mafia.

Another possibility arises with austinmcc and Anacletus as the pair of mafia because austin did essentially save Anacletus from a day 1 lynch. However, I think this is a bit more far-fetched.

If you think I am mafia for my voting patterns, I do not blame you. I urge you to read my reasoning before coming to that conclusion.
