Much as I'd love to play this now, you should move froggy to the final position as LIV finished.

Sheeping ET is maybe marginally better than actually trying to follow your own reads, so kudos.


Trying to get the attention off you by using a personal insult about the first game I ever played seems a bit shit, you got anything to say about the actual case I made, instead of about me?

I can see why someone would throw out a random vote on someone to pressure as number one (even if I don't think it is a great way of pressuring).You do this as number two on VE, for no reason. And next you are sheeping ET on his Acrofalis vote. Why did you vote VE? And could elaborate why you are voting Acrofalis?



Ok, vote on VE was a joke, as also as a cheeky backup vote in case I forgot to vote later in the day :X

I'm voting Acro because for the time being he is the best choice in my opinion. ET's case makes sense to me. Add this to the fact that in the last game he was scum he played similar to the way he is in this game, yet wasn't lynched, and I don't want to make the same mistake again. If he can start posting usefully, then it would help alleviate some of this suspicion.


Hey, care to elaborate on how his playstyle is similar?


And yeah, right off the bat on that game, he voted on some random guy, followed by being called out by someone as scum, then proceeded to WAY overreact in the guise of being "Afraid of death"

Obviously, now he's tried to run away in the face of being called out, his replacement will have to convince us he isn't mafia.


A couple of things about this post and in general.

Firstly I will not be held responsible for Acro's posting, deal with it. I will be held responsible for my own. I replaced into SNMM XI and said this, and I was townie:

Second of all, I am not AcesAnoka. You may think his posting is terrible as hell or that he was scummy and lurky or whatever, but please approach my posting with an open mind. If you're gonna call me scum, call me scum because of what I've done.



Secondly, your post I quoted. Were you seriously having a go at Acro for insulting you for your first game played, when your entire case on him rests on his scum-play on the first game he played?

No but seriously I'd say it's generally advice, I'm not sure that I agree on the DT advice but then if all the other stuff is him actually trying to help that probably is too and I'd defer to his judgement on that over my own.


Navillus places a dumbly explained vote on wbg, and the justification is that... the advice was helpful and good? Something doesn't add up here.

The point, Zealos, is that whether it was addressed as an insult or not, Acro said your scumreads were bad that game. I am going to presume he is telling the truth, or you would have corrected me.

You cry "but it was my first game douchebag!" before using Acro's first game as the basis for your case.

The irony of Navillus' post on the matter being dodgy is that I do agree wbg's post was dodgy in itself. Who is wbg giving advice to here? This is not a newbie game.

Cool.

A few notes I want to share with everyone:

1. Please don't lurk.
2. With that said, please don't spam either; if we have like 50 pages by the end of d1 it'll probably be looking really good for mafia.
3. If you are a blue role: don't breadcrumbyour role; you may choose to breadcrumb your actions, as that is more useful (and much harder to fake for scum). Don't play diffferently simply because you have a power role; scum will notice.
4. DTs: choose players who are unlikely to be framed or shot n1. Choose players who you think will live for a while.
5. Medics/JK: don't bluehunt, just protect the most sensible townies.
6. Vigis: don't be MrZentor (case in point: Game of Thrones)
7. Veterans: please don't do stupid shit to try to ensure you get shot. Chances are far stronger you'll be lynched for being a moron than take a bullet from scum.

Anyway, all general advice and all stuff most of you should know, but read it over anyway.

##Vote: VisceraEyes


I don't support policy lynching but I do agree we should keep an eye on VE because his play can be quite erratic. If he's the focus of attention as either alignment it becomes very difficult to discern what he is. So for now I think we should look elsewhere so we don't have that problem, and let VE decide for himself what he wants to do.


This paragraph says remarkably little. He's talking about VE but what does any of it actually mean? The two bold parts are somewhat contradictory as well.

I don't think I'd agree to a Nova lynch unless something very particular came up. Atm he's playing to his not-very-useful town meta rather than his post-extensively scum meta

Guys. Look at Nova's filter in LIV where he was also town (and where I won on your behalf, Katina dearest). Very similar. Not convinced by his lynch at all.

As far as I can tell he's just posting with flavor text from mtg cards, if that continues I don't really care if he's scum or town it makes him impossible to read, doesn't let him contribute, and makes for a really shitty atmosphere. Mattchew stop it.

no u

My point is that townies should in general strive to be as lucid and clear as possible. Don't give a flying two hoots what you think, if Mattchew just talks in plain text, it will achieve this better than speaking in MTG speak or whatever.

Frankly I'm bored with the sheer quantity of townies who seem to not want to do this. Hence the vote.

Hey marv who are you suspicious of at this point besides mattchew? Can you also clearly state why you think nova is town based off meta alone? Because I cant see it being similar.




How is it different from LIV? Quite a few posts but generally not a lot of content, no?

For now I'm going to answer 'who I'm suspicious of' as 'who I'd like to be dead'. So other than Matt, Nova, Acid, and to a lesser extent Jeb.

So you think nova is town yet you want to kill him?



I wouldn't mind him dead.

I just came from playing scum in LIV where 3/5 of my team were mod-killed and we still scored a convincing victory with the entire fucking town voting with me to kill another townie at LYLO, making a total of 6 consecutive townie mislynches and 0 scum lynches.

Why? Because useless townies are useless and make easy lynch bait. Ideally I'd want someone to shoot Nova tonight.

That's your reasoning. He didn't explain his. " I'll lynch you cause I don't like you !" that's not a reasoning.

Gonna have to disagree with Mouldy on what consolidated evidence means I think. "inclined" to vote based on "random train of thought against others" - what does this even mean? It rather seems he's jumping on an easy wagon that's already started, because he's been voted against by said player, with a nonsensical reason.

???

Overall - votes for Nova and admits it wasn't a proper vote, wishy washy about what the vote meant - basically his posts are just setting himself up to back down from the vote on Nova. A promise of consolidated evidence instead followed by a vote with a barely understandable explanation. Also going back to my earlier posts, he is hard to understand and does not post his thoughts clearly (well, actually he seems not to have clear thoughts anyway). At this time I would prefer a Jebjeb lynch. His posting both seems scummy while at the same time hard to understand.

No strong ones, no, I haven't had a good enough look over the thread. I'll look over everything at the end of the night, because even if I tried to make a case now it'd probably be too late to get anything done about it.

Katina: why are you avoiding interacting with the thread in any way? wbg has asked you a question on more than one occasion and you do nothing.

This isn't acceptable. You're effectively throwing your day 1 vote away because you can't be bothered to spend the time to form a proper opinion.

Not the case. My opinion is that Jeb should be lynched. The reason is twofold. 1. He is still a strong scumread, even though I said it was more likely that he is bad town. 2. That he has lurked, then been less than useless to town. I think he is a strong lynch, regardless of whether I have a strong scumread.


So people, what do we think of Zealos? He votes on MouldyJeb who he thinks is bad town. He tells me he doesn't have a strong scumread. Then he reiterates that in fact Mouldy IS a strong scumread, even though he is likely town (seriously, wtf). Contradictions abound.

At the start of the day, a couple players made a case against NT, and you (like Acrofales before you, whom you are replacing) jumped in to defend him, twice.

As soon as I called you on buddying with NT, you included him in a list of people you'd like to see dead, and justified that with something about him being a useless townie.

Now, to quote your own words :

You're using the same argument in both cases, but resulting in different conclusions, and that swift reversal came mere minutes after being accused of buddying.

Seems to me like you're trying to distance yourself from NT now that prospects are looking grim. If that's not the case and you truly had an epiphany, please quote the exact post from NT that made you change your mind.


Are you not capable of working out the difference between lynching someone and vig shotting them?

VE: I am dissapoint.

Having pressured Matt to try to get him to post normally (to no avail) I am now trying to lynch scum. This is in no way incompatible with wanting to see bad townies shot at night. Good god.

Yeah but useless stuff in terms of scumhunting.

I have been inactive due to work and sunny weather. Have been catching up on the thread this morning. I unfortunately did not get to put my vote off Katina as I only got back to the thread post lynch. If I had done I would have probably voted N_T.

@VE: Perhaps I'm being thick but are your suspicions on WBG simply because you think he's been dodging you? That seems an exceedingly stupid thing to do as scum no?

@Acid: Are you still confident on a marv lynch? Your case on him seems like the strongest so far (which still isnt much tbf).


I would still like him to explain how he came about his reversal, but I'm not sure I'll be voting him again at the start of Day 2. First I want to read the thread again, specifically how the Jeb lynch happened, who pointed fingers and who followed, that sort of thing.


You're not going to get one that satisfies you, I fear. I want scum and/or anti-town dead. I voted for scum (or so I thought) and at the time Nova seemed like a good vig shot, townie or not. Is this pushing a scum agenda? Maybe you could interpret it that way, but it's not the case. froggy, you should certainly know I'm not so openly risky as scum.

Anyway, I have other people on my mind now. Here's hoping Nova makes some kickass cases to disprove my scepticism.

Nothing is coherent.

The Mouldy Jeb and scumreads affair. Firstly I'm just going to requote my earlier post. Mouldy is a scumread except he's town except he's voting for him except he's not a strong scumread except he is a scumread except he's probably town.

Check out particularly the things I had bolded in the nested quotes. This ties in heavily to whether or not Zealos has scumreads. Because apparently on day 1 he was happy to lynch someone he thought was bad town.

This post in particular abdicates any duty to search for scum and lynch them day 1. When Zealos left last night, he did not have any strong scumreads (apart from Mouldy. who wasn't actually a strong read. etc).

On May 21 2012 18:30 Zealos wrote:

I'm voting Acro because for the time being he is the best choice in my opinion. ET's case makes sense to me. Add this to the fact that in the last game he was scum he played similar to the way he is in this game, yet wasn't lynched, and I don't want to make the same mistake again. If he can start posting usefully, then it would help alleviate some of this suspicion.

@Zealos: if I were to go by GoT mafia I would lynch you off the bat: you were the 5th scum, the way you played that. Your reads were terrible that game and scumteam was rather happy to keep you around. I would try not to draw attention to that game if I were you. Sheeping ET is maybe marginally better than actually trying to follow your own reads, so kudos.


Trying to get the attention off you by using a personal insult about the first game I ever played seems a bit shit, you got anything to say about the actual case I made, instead of about me?



Zealos' 'case' on Acro consisted of "you seem to be playing similarly to your scummy meta". He and I may have different interpretations of what means what in Mafia, but this does not a case make. What is Acro supposed to say? Yes? No? Ok?
The only part of his case is an attempt at meta.

Funny, then, how he completely disregards meta while attacking me. I'm cropping the following post because I'm going to use it again.

Could I just point out how "Active" Marvel has been all game, without making any real cases himself. He seems very good at pointing out problems, asking questions and what not, but I want to know who you want to kill and why

The point is, useful townies don't use the thread as a place to have a conversation, they use it to root out scum.



"Could I just point out" he asks innocently. Given how he was so keen to bring up Acro's meta, it's awfully negligent for him to ignore mine. A cursory check on my games indicates I post a lot, regardless of alignment. For example, I have an 8 page filter as my only scum game in LIV in a 79 page game. I have a 12 page filter from LIII when I played town and died just before page 100. I post a lot regardless of alignment.

His part on me with relation to Acro:

Firstly I will not be held responsible for Acro's posting, deal with it.

I understand the reasoning, but it seems like a free copout for acro's scummy posting. Not to mention he makes a lot of small posts with very little use for them other than to seem active.



Again, he's putting suspicion on to me, but for what? He completely neglects to mention that the part he's talking about, I even provided a direct link to what I said when I last replaced into a game. It seems like a free copout for Acro's posting? What the fuck am I supposed to do about Acro's posting? It's just insidious. And again with the lots of posts comment when if he was consistent he would know that I post like that.

Handily glosses over that I was one of the first players to make a coherent case on Mouldy:

Gonna have to disagree with Mouldy on what consolidated evidence means I think. "inclined" to vote based on "random train of thought against others" - what does this even mean? It rather seems he's jumping on an easy wagon that's already started, because he's been voted against by said player, with a nonsensical reason.

???

Overall - votes for Nova and admits it wasn't a proper vote, wishy washy about what the vote meant - basically his posts are just setting himself up to back down from the vote on Nova. A promise of consolidated evidence instead followed by a vote with a barely understandable explanation. Also going back to my earlier posts, he is hard to understand and does not post his thoughts clearly (well, actually he seems not to have clear thoughts anyway). At this time I would prefer a Jebjeb lynch. His posting both seems scummy while at the same time hard to understand.

##Unvote: Mattchew
##Vote: MouldyJeb



------------------------------------------------

In Summary: Zealos blatantly contradicts himself as to whether he has scumreads on day 1, not able to keep up a consistent story. He abdicates responsibility for providing scumreads, but appears with them during the night, having formed them in his sleep. He attempts to use meta to attack Acrofales, but totally neglects to check my meta when attacking me.

Sure you would. Typical scum. Act all scummy and then act indignant when called out. "Oh come on if I was scum I would never be so obvious about it! Pschaw!"


I am not 'typical scum'. I am marvellosity. There's a difference. I just finished playing scum in LIV. I never had any sort of case made against me there. Why? Because I can avoid the spotlight if I so desire. The closest anyone came to anything that game was 'he soft defended a scum once'.

I would be a terrible scum player if I let myself come in for this flak, over... what? Wanting to kill Nova Terra? Hardly a grand prize.

1. This was a jumble of words. I struggle to see why you still try to use this as a case.
2. Cute, you seem to think things through.
3. It was a game I had played with him, and I remembered the start quite well, hence why I used it.
4. As per 3, I didn't "Check" anyones meta, it was just something I happened to remember perfectly from my first game.

Your case almost seemed reasonable apart from the fact your summary does nothing to point me as mafia, instead, it just tries to find flaws in my case against you.


I've made my case, and I will answer you once, because getting into an argument will not help anything.

To your 1) - you jumbled everything up because you were desperately trying to justify your vote on mouldy but you couldn't properly. I was pushing you on your vote, and the fact that you started stumbling over yourself showed you had no conviction in your vote. This heavily ties in to my point that you excused yourself from making any proper scumreads day 1, only to come up with them in the night phase.

To your 3/4 and summary in general. I point out the many flaws in your case against me, because when scum are 'scumhunting' they need to fabricate a case on a townie. Unless scum is bussing, they will have to fabricate motivations that do not exist in order to try to conjure up a case. Your case against me was riddled with lies, inaccuracies, and fallacies which I pointed out - in short a case but not a case. I can't for the life of me remember which game it was, but the veterans might remember - Caller scum did this in some big game and was caught for it.

My point is that townies should in general strive to be as lucid and clear as possible. Don't give a flying two hoots what you think, if Mattchew just talks in plain text, it will achieve this better than speaking in MTG speak or whatever.

Frankly I'm bored with the sheer quantity of townies who seem to not want to do this. Hence the vote.
(ironic)

The point is, useful townies don't use the thread as a place to have a conversation, they use it to root out scum.
So Marvellosity, you've got 4 bullets in your gun, who dies and why?

Big ones hunt the elves, so the elves hunt the small ones to keep them from getting big.

Convenient, then, that you decided not to spend the time looking for scum and instead deferred doing so until after the lynch.

Stop it.

All I get from your case on Tunkeg is that he made a post you didn't like that asked a lot of his questions and his scumread died.

Part 2 (ET dying) is wifom-central so I'm going to ignore that for the moment.

What else makes him scum other than the fact he made a list of questions you don't like?

I was asleep. Deal.
Hiro isn't scum for arguing with me. He's scum for making a useless case that makes literally no sense at all. It feels like he made the case just for the sake of making the case, and as a result, it didn't make sense.


Ok guys, we're lynching Zealos today. See bold for his excuse on not providing scumreads. See below timestamp for his post where he deferred his scumhunting:

Do you not have an opinion which? And presuming you do, why?

Leaning on terrible town, because his team would have shut him up or at least coached him by now imo. Still strongest lynch atm though. Lurked to begin with, followed with nonsensical posting.


You don't have a single scumread?

No strong ones, no, I haven't had a good enough look over the thread. I'll look over everything at the end of the night, because even if I tried to make a case now it'd probably be too late to get anything done about it.

That is not 'he is my strongest scumread'. If we're in Day 2 and your strongest read on someone is based on not answering a question, we are in trouble.

Fine, I'll respond. I don't think I would lynch Tunkeg today. There's nothing about his play that seems scummy to me. Zealos, that might happen if you could make a real case against him.

I don't know what to do about Katina :/ I almost made some sort of case when I was doing Zealos - before the post I had planned on doing them both at the same time - but couldnt' find convincing enough arguments.

There's also the fact she was very active in Liar for a while, while completely ignoring this game.

Let me spell it out to you, as you don't seem to understand.
In a game where some one has to die, and my current reads are:
13 town looking players
1 scummy but still overall town, also useless in general.
Who do you vote for? It's like trying to explain maths to a toodler...


Let me spell it out to you, because you're an idiot.

In a game where one has to die, and each lynch is important.

You decide not to look for scum until after the lynch is over and lynch someone you believe to be a townie instead. As pointed out the 'reads you came up with all happened before you decided to pack it in for the day and be happy with lynching someone you thought was town.

I voted for someone who I thought was scum.

It's like trying to explain mafia to a toddler? No, I do toddlers a disservice. To a fucking stone.

No, I'm saying that you COULD have done so. You abdicated searching for scum 7+ hours from the deadline, and the next day your reads all came from posts before that point.

You actively chose NOT to hunt for scum when judging by your later cases the evidence was there for you, and you chose to lynch a townie because you actively chose this option.

So is it just that case? Or are there other surrounding factors? Could we just *remove sarcasm* for now please, I think we shit up the thread enough

Alright, cool. The issue I have is that Hiro being as aggressive as he is doesn't fit into what I believe his play to be as scum.

I just went over his filter in Newbie VI to check this out. For the large part he was calm, reasoned, and somewhat lurky. Here he is aggressive and indiscriminate.

What do you make of this difference? Clicky here for his Newbie VI filter.

I can at least understand where he's coming from with his case, even if I don't necessarily agree with it / it was badly presented. The big lists of questions, the fact that he said he was changing his meta AFTER roles went out (contrary to what VE remembered).

I just find it very hard to get to grips with atm that he'd change his scum meta from calm and reasoned to aggressive and pissing people off. It doesn't make sense to me.

Regardless of his alignment nova seems to post a lot. Over the span of a week in games where he was scum and town he had 8-10 pages of filter in both.

Only his first game seems to be an anomaly with 5 pages after 9-10 days but that's still quite a lot (especially for a newbie game)

So why is it, Katina, that you're trying to pass off Nova's spam as exclusively a scum trait?


I'm not. I'm just saying he has done it before.



Yay, Nova, a case! I've quoted the part I find particularly compelling. You see, you have a veteran player who knows how to play the game, and yet is lurky. This is at least forgiveable if when they do turn up, they say something of note.

But here it's: Nova spams! And her response to wbg is even worse - "I know it's not alignment indicative, I'm just saying he spammed before". Her filter is short enough that when she contributes with the weakest sauce possible, it's superbad.

What does everyone else think?

I am not ignoring the content she has. I am asking about these specific comments. She points out Nova spams, to what end? When wbg pulls her up on it, she says "yea, i know it doesn't mean anything." Then why did she make the comment, to what purpose?

I'm going to have to go back over the thread to see at what time she was pushing for an N_T lynch.

My issue with much of your case on wbg is that you are making a narrative out of his posts that doesn't actually have to be the case.

Bugs, I loathe to talk about my reads with you for balance reasons, but everyone else has forsaken us.

How confident are YOU that Nova is scum? I feel like he went limp kinda quick, but aside from that has at least quit posting scummily. Whether that's just because he's quit posting is obviously up for debate. Combined with the fact that he's got so many people going "Meta him bro" and the fact that he's all "Meta me bro" and it just looks really bad.

But something doesn't feel right - like, he seems like TOO easy a target, ya know?


This was what I asked after bugs has been asking Katina if she's sure Nova is scum. Here is bugs' following post.

On May 23 2012 04:52 wherebugsgo wrote:
Sorry all, I became really sick overnight. Feeling quite a bit better now, though.

I'm fine with killing Katina, VE, and mold man, in that order.

Katina normally reads the thread and she usually has more than one read. She also at the very least explains herself to townies. It's clear that she's deliberately ignoring my questions, possibly because she doesn't actually believe in her "case" on Nova (i.e she is scum)

By the time I asked Katina the first time how sure she was of Nova being scum I had started to think he was town. Now, it is day 1, and I may be completely wrong about my assessment, but the way the bandwagons have gone today suggest either that both nova and mouldy are town or that one of them is scum. Based on the nova votes just now I'm inclined to think mouldy is scum.

Of course, we'll never know the truth unless they flip. As there's not much time left in the day I think we should kill mouldy.

If anyone else agrees with me that we should kill Katina or VE, let me know and perhaps we can get a vote switch going. I'll be around till deadline.

##unvote
##vote Mouldy Jeb


PS. Anyone notice that Katina says she hates people using the noob card, but hasn't really expressed suspicion of mouldy? (at least, from what I recall)


Now, I put it to town to decide. Did bugs satisfactorily answer the question that I very specifically and very directly asked bugs?

I think not, myself. Bugs would have you believe that I'm "self-centered".

Well, let me try again.

Here's a question I posed of Bugs.

I don't think that's balanced at all; normally a 16 player game has 4 mafia on one team. As this is a 15 player game I would expect that to be true as well.



Wait a second...sokaywait....you are only responding to things that matter, right?

Didn't you just write:

On May 24 2012 14:05 wherebugsgo wrote:
You say I'm ignoring you because you're either wholly self centered or scum. I address only what's necessary to address and nothing more, because information about reads in the hands of scum causes them to act differently.

Think about ET being shot, and reread some of the only posts made on him. Tunkeg made an ET accusation that was completely ignored. ET was relatively vocal, and from what I recall several people called him town.

Each time you've accused me of ignoring you both in this game and others there's two explanations: I'm afk when you are here or I've already addressed you and you simply don't find it satisfactory. My problem? Not really.

Anyway, if you want to work together then you might as well stop calling me scum, since I'm not.


...the bolded?

So in what way does "2 families vs 1 family" balance related question NEED to be addressed? How is that going to help us find scum?






I didn't quite know how to answer this in a coherent manner, so I've used red, blue and green to highlight.

Now, he didn't answer you directly, but he answered your red question in the same colour, ditto with the blue question.

As for the green, I'm specifically pointing at what bugs wrote. The point is that the question about two families of course did not need to be addressed, but doing so does not give information about reads to scum, therefore there was no potential harm in doing so. That's how I read it and it seems reasonable.

Okay marvel, let me ask you because Bugs will pretend to be exasperated if I ask him.

If we don't talk about our scum reads with each other, how are we to find scum? This is the big part about Bugs' play that I can't reconcile. I'm town, and I don't know who to trust...but I can't hope to find out who IS scum unless I get information from others about their reads and the reasoning for their actions. Bugs is abdicating responsibility for hunting scum with the phrase "information about reads in the hands of scum is bad"....but he handily glosses over the fact that without discussion our reads and reasoning, there's literally NO WAY TO FIND SCUM. Otherwise, we're just pointing a finger, lynching and hoping it turns out okay. We can't just randomly lynch, and we can't put all of our trust in one person to tell us who to lynch when there's no way to know if he's town or not (especially someone who isn't even willing to discuss his reads)

It doesn't make any sense, the way Bugs is playing. It's contradictory, and I can't understand what the hell he hopes to accomplish if he's town....and I know Bugs is better than this, so that is why I'm certain he's scum.


This point is valid, and is one I've alluded to myself. I dislike posts such as these:

The first one is at best arrogant and at worst an abdication of scumhunting responsibilities. The 2nd... well actually yes, I would like to see the cases and reads myself, and it shouldn't be contingent on whether the Zealos lynch 'takes off'.

I expect to hear from wbg some more during this cycle on his reads. "I want the rest of town to do the work" or "people don't read" isn't a good reason not to present reads and cases. At the moment the way he's posted doesn't have to be scum, but if he continues to refuse to share his reads/cases, this will change.

Ok, I'm going to try a slightly different tack on Zealos, because it appears I am not gaining as much traction as I like. Instead I will be presenting quotes together with minimal commentary.

Light explanation - "if I tried to make a case now it'd be too late". This is 7 hours before the lynch. After the lynch he wakes up with his scumreads, all the material on his cases on me/zelblade being present before he decided not to do so the previous day 7 (!) hours before lynch. See post later in green that ties into this.

Your case against me was riddled with lies, inaccuracies, and fallacies which I pointed out - in short a case but not a case. I can't for the life of me remember which game it was, but the veterans might remember - Caller scum did this in some big game and was caught for it.


I quote my post as the rebuttal of his incorrect quibble of my summary.

the difference is i don't see the scum motive in zealos's faults


You don't see the scum motive, in for example, saying I couldn't defend myself for Acrofales and then later accusing me based on it?

You don't see the scum motive in, say, lynching a townie because he didn't have any reads despite the fact he could have made them?

You don't see the scum motive in him saying there was nothing scummy to see, and then waking up AFTER the lynch and finding such things?

I am not voting for zelblade when the entirety of the case against him is that he said he would probably post reads and he hasn't.

That's not enough.

We do have an idea. We have a strong case, and we have a case built on lurking and a single failure to present some reads.

you cant defend yourself against them (cause you arent him), but that doesnt mean they cant be used and should be thrown away like they never happened. (Acro gave me my initial townread on you guys btw)

I don't know what you are referring to with your 2nd point.

I don't know when he actually sleeps so idk why that matters. Also, I think it would have been easier for him as scum to just sit idle and let the thread go wild then to make the comments he did. He doesn't seem stubborn with his reads or thoughts, which I find to be pretty telling that he doesn't have much information.


Alright, let's do zelblade.

Something came up in his life and he couldn't play mafia.

Oh look town motivation.

Shall we discard both cases now?

Why would he point something out as being scummy (jumping around) and then in his next post name 3 players and vote a new one (who 2 of his scum reads were also voting)


zelblade said his vote had been jumpy. zelblade looked at the options and then voted for one player, not several. What's the problem?

Hey, if you think the case against Zealos isn't strong, than why. You don't actually mention anything wrong with the case. All you do is keep saying "i'm ok with him. but the case isn't strong" over and over.



How to explain this... The case against Zealos is made up of bits and pieces. A quote here, a quote there, someone pointed out inconsistencies and so on, but there is no big thing. If you take every single point in a vacuum, none of them scream "SCUM!"

And, looking at the big picture, it's hard to see the scum agenda that should normally be revealed in a situation like this. No one has been able to answer a very simple question that I shouldn't even have to ask.

"If Zealos is scum, what is he trying to achieve by playing this way? How is this playstyle going to lead the mafia to a victory?"

Now, if you looks at zelblade's posting, sure there's only one thing wrong. But it's a big thing. It's a five by itself. And if we were to ask the same questions of zelblade, answers are easily found. As a scum he has everything to gain by playing this way, especially if he has a special power to use at night.


I find this entire post deeply inconsistent. I have pointed out several times the scummy motivations for doing what Zealos did. Your justification on zelblade is so weak.

To the bold: so zelblade has some special power, and the best way to utilise it is... wait... it's coming.... I know! to say he's going to post reads and then not! That's sure to make him survive so he can use his powers!

The reads he decided not to post during the day? The read where he said I hadn't made a case but I had? Or where he said I was posting a lot even though that's irrelevant?

What is it about the timing of his reads (not posting them during the day) or content (everything he said on me was bad) do you like? Or is it just that he went after zelblade who you are also going after?

Marvel first at the beginning he was doing his whole flavor text thing which I really didn't see as alignment indicative, if anything town would probably be more willing to do it because scum would be afraid of drawing attention and everyone yelling at them to stop, but then where I started to think he was town was when people had a problem with him he continued to do it but also made sure to make his reads clear and explicit as the game went on, I don't think scum would do this as once enough people were accepting it or not lynching him over it I think he was in the clear, policy lynches rarely happen day 1 and almost never day 2, but he continued to be clear with what he was saying.

Then when he posted all of his reads I agreed with many of them and just the thought process behind them seemed townie.

The biggest thing now though is that he stopped with the flavor to try to get VE and WBG to stop fighting. Scum would have no reason to do this, first most scum would (and probably did) just stay out of that fight in general seeing as it was making the thread more confusing and scum-hunting more difficult. They could sit behind the excuse that it was the two vets and they know more or should work it out or something, but Matt has an even better excuse, he could have ignored it or thrown some useless flavor at it and if anyone asked him about it later he could say he did what he could (which because it would just be some flavor text probably wouldn't fix anything) and no one would blame him as most people accepted the flavor at this point. But instead he decides that doing what's best for town is more important and stops with the flavor text, this is big because one he's helping town in the first place by calming the fight and two by stopping the flavor text he's making himself more vulnerable and easier to read, I think if scum took the gambit to post like that at the beginning they wouldn't be willing to give up the advantage of being harder to read so soon at all.


Perhaps you're right. It's not a ploy I'd put past a scum Matt, at all though.

For example, an alternative story:

1) sees Drazerk made it to endgame almost without suspicion using posting restriction, does it himself
2) rides to the rescue by posting normally again (like we should be pleased with this. he should have been doing so from the start) and gains town credit for it and coming to scold wbg/VE.

I'm not saying this has to be the case, but it definitely could be the case.

Note the word brief, her filter is 12 posts. 6 of which is 1 or 2 liners.

Now lets go and check a game where Katina was scum, TL Mafia LIV.
In her filter:
Posts at the same rate as this game, aka lurking (until she gets modkilled day1)
posting aggressively when she actually posts
quoting to look like shes contributing
to quote katina,
What is she doing this game?

Hi guys, just finished reading through the thread (not that it was much to read) I like how people jumped onto the VE votes like little school girls licking lollipops and followed the teacher. We are how far into day one? and there are only a few pages and not much to go on as in terms of scum hunting. I agree that Navillus looks a little suspicious at the moment. I will be rereading the thread and taking a closer look at what we have so far.

Okay, so immediately we have complaining about other peoples votes while offering nothing, saying theres nothing to scum hunt with (yeah thanks for that) a Navillus scummy bandwagon, and a promise for some closer look soon.
Only a day and 3 hours later does she actually make a post with any sort of "closer look".

Reads d1 of Day1

Acrofalis/Marvellosity:
Leaning town based on Acrofalis aggression while he was in game. He tried to get this game going, and tried to apply some pressure.

EchelonTee:
Leaning town. He went into a fight with Acrofalis from the get go, and haven't been afraid to stick his head out.

Zealos
Get some scumvibes off him. He started the game by voting VE as number two, without a good reason. He claims it to be a joke later (which it might be). He then proceeds to vote Acrofales based on ET's case, and because of meta, basicly sheeping ET. The rest of his filter seems very empty, even though he got more post than most in this game. Some townpoints for actually bother to answer questions.

Mattchew
He might be one of those I called out for not posting earlier, that is a scum. I don't know what he is trying to do, but if his postingstyle continues this way he will be disruptive townie at best, and sabotaging scum at worst. Leaning scum for now.

Nova_Terra
Leaning scum. He was active at the start, but unlike Acrofalis his attempts at pushing seems more forced, and with no real weight behind it. His whole postingstyle seems very non-commital and gives me scumvibes.

Also Navillus need to get in the thread and do some more. His vote on WBG is the only thing he have done. And it was done without much reasoning, and in my opinion strange reasoning.


PS: I know you guys don't like list. But I want to do lists so bare with me.

PS 2: This is not an analysis post. It is a read post. When I am ready to put my vote down on someone I will try to make a good case/analysis on them. Exception is if there is a great case on them that I agree with, then I will be open about sheeping it, and probably just add some of my own reasoning to it.



This list... serves no purpose other than making you look active. Town reads are worse than useless day 1 as 1. they are even weaker than day 1 scumreads and 2. points to scum who to kill to cause confusion.

EDIT: There was more but WBG and Navillus covered it whilst I was writing

##Vote: Mattchew


As far as I can tell he's just posting with flavor text from mtg cards, if that continues I don't really care if he's scum or town it makes him impossible to read, doesn't let him contribute, and makes for a really shitty atmosphere. Mattchew stop it.

On N_T yes VE and WBG I'd say he's using pretty bad method of scumhunting/analysis and his vote is for a dumb reason, but that doesn't make him scum and aside from clear-cut examples of someone being useless or disruptive (such as restricting their posts to text from a card game) it's a bad idea to lynch someone for bad play, in my experience it's rarely a scumtell and depending on how they're playing badly it can be more of a town tell.

Tunkeg you asked a bunch of questions earlier, most of them were ignored, was there any point to them? Why don't you care that people didn't answer you/why aren't you following up? Also why post that list, if you have scum reads why aren't you just pressuring them instead of telling them, and how does telling everyone your town-reads do anything but let scum know who you think is townie and so light them up as targets?

Holy spam batman! NT scum or town please stop with multiple one or two line posts in a row, it's distracting and makes the thread harder to read through, consolidate.


How is voting for Mattchew due to his posting style (which you consider to be *Bad*) different to voting N_T based on bad play?

I don't necessarily disagree with you I just think you're being a little inconsistent. Shoot I forgot to unvote as promised:

I never said that it has anything to do with indicacating the alignment of the player,i said that general advice seems to be contributing but isnt really. and that its just as likely mister helpful is scum, etc.


Your style has so far been laced with an air of giving advice to the other players - in what way is Bugs' post giving advice any different from, say, you warning that "players trying to give advice could be scum"?

ooh i forgot about that
Its different because its not all i've done
and because i know im town
and its not really different itself, but i was aware of the hypocrisy before i made teh post


I would to bring attention to this lovely post. N_T might be the BM version 2! I say this because of his spam, oneliners, and the fact he seems to be refreshing the thread every 5 minutes. When BM is mafia he always over emphasizes that he is confirmed town.

Such things are silly to say and provide no help to the town I will be setting my vote.

##Vote Nove_Terra

Based on his fliter, he seems to more interesting in proving his innocence then trying to find the Mafia.

Then we have a wonderfully awful case against myself, decides to link me to another player and therefore i am mafia (lolwut)
This post is also wonderful because once gets accused of lurking... NO LOOK I WAS HERE BEFORE READ READ READ WHY U NO READ

So so far we have a silly case and vote that adds suspicion to players with no logical reasoning, getting defensive when called out on totally true lurking, and meta that is the exact same as her last games scum meta

I was reading through filters and came across this post. It is just O.o This post does not have a purpose. It feels forced. Almost like he didn't really want to post but knew that he had to. I'm not saying we should kill him but that a finger of suspicion should be pointed onto him.

He just played the noob card in his post. I'm always wary of those people. They don't tickle my fancy.

Hello Marv : I'm almost tempted to policy vote you due to how scary good you played with me as scum in LIV. Policy lynches are bad though so your safe until you post more.

I don't think WBG's opening comment is alignment charged. there are equal reasons for both town and scum to open up D1 with general common sense posts.

From the 2 games I've played (Noobie VIII and TLMafia LIV) and N_T has been lurky/bored as townie and hyper-active as scum. Just saying.

Navillus, despite still being a noob I am strongly against a 'voting against vets' policy. It makes no sense and seems hugely anti-town, unless its a joke.

Let me know if it is because until then ##Vote Navillus[/b

Rofl, well thats interesting, it looks like i just went through your newbie game (snmmIX not VIII, bitch to find) and in that game there was an understanding that my town meta was very very active which i ended up failing at as scum, and my meta change was frequently noted in cases against me. Very interesting that you would want to try to make this conclusion. what reason would there be other than scum?

Okay.... please tell me you guys have seem how inconsistent N_T is. Take a look at his filter. He opens with going after VE right off the back with close to no reasoning except he that he might be a veteran. Then he proceeds to spew out short useless posts. He is throwing doubt around the town and is picking at everyone. I don't need to tell you guys he's spamming relentlessly. As I said before he seems more interested in proving his own innocence than trying to find mafia. This is shown by how he is trying to kill anyone he can. Instead of just focusing on one or two players.

First part of the post is literally the exact same excuse as LIV where she says that she had a busy night so apologies apologies, good job
Then is this awful reasoning that i am scum, looks like to me once she realized that my vote got sufficient traction it was time to bandwagon a real reason for hers
Problem is, the reasons are bull. So right now it appears that she opposes pressure (apparently pressuring a veteran isnt ok) and its a problem that i picked at "everyone" (actually 6 people, 15 people in town. i dont see the problem). Furthermore, as she had just been in a game with me, i would assume she knows how i post spammily and this shouldnt be surprising to her. Unless she rolled scum, and is bullshitting, that is. Apparently its a bad thing to not only focus on 1 or 2 players (what? trying to limit a vote where there is no no-lynch?)

Then theres a couple worthless short defenses of herself. then this wonderful gem:

Look at this link where N_T was mafia. Notice that he spams here.... and what is he doing this game?

...
Spam!

.....
Not only is this completely stupid to have not seemed to read the thread, she says that my spam is similar to a game i played mafia in
But wait, i was just in a game with you where i was town
AND I SPAMMED
So now shes just throwing shit to try to get a nice mislynch, doesnt matter if it makes sense as long as it casts suspicion, amirite katina

Regardless of his alignment nova seems to post a lot. Over the span of a week in games where he was scum and town he had 8-10 pages of filter in both.

Only his first game seems to be an anomaly with 5 pages after 9-10 days but that's still quite a lot (especially for a newbie game)

So why is it, Katina, that you're trying to pass off Nova's spam as exclusively a scum trait?


I'm not. I'm just saying he has done it before.

OWAIT NOOOO dont get me wrong im not trying to say that hes scum because of it! im just suggesting its a possibility11!!!!!

Do i seriously need to explain this


Then theres some wonderful sheeping on the "mattchews posting is cute but maybe hes scum"
Good job saying nothing original (again)

WIFOM: Katina was one of ET's main suspects that he was fine with lynching, but wasnt noticed very much
Same meta as scum Katina
[b]##Vote: Katina


this is a good case, sorry i missed it. more people should read this and give their thoughts


I did try to delve into a specific part of it, but it didn't get me very far for some reason

Firstly I will not be held responsible for Acro's posting, deal with it.

My point is that townies should in general strive to be as lucid and clear as possible. Don't give a flying two hoots what you think, if Mattchew just talks in plain text, it will achieve this better than speaking in MTG speak or whatever.

Frankly I'm bored with the sheer quantity of townies who seem to not want to do this. Hence the vote.
(ironic)

The point is, useful townies don't use the thread as a place to have a conversation, they use it to root out scum.
So Marvellosity, you've got 4 bullets in your gun, who dies and why?

Big ones hunt the elves, so the elves hunt the small ones to keep them from getting big.

Mmhmm. Let's have a little fun with a thought experiment

1) what happens when everyone does their best to contribute in a clear way?

2) what happens when everyone only posts in MTG quotes?

I am actually quite interested in Acid. His somewhat dismissal of the Zealos case and absolute adherence to the zelblade case, where he uses the same but faulty reasoning for both opinions intrigues me.

He says he can't find the motivation in Zealos, and yet apparently the motivation in zelblade not following through on his reads is perfectly clear.

EBWOP: further, he makes a huge deal out of the zelblade not posting his cases when he said he would thing. Like, that is *the* thing that makes him scum. Because he wants to survive to the night to possible use his powers? Why on earth would zelblade make and break a commitment if he wanted to fly under the radar? It doesn't add up at all.

Tunkeg clearly isn't mafia, he's just a godawful town.

there is no way anyone who doesn't know tunkeg's alignment would come to this conclusion

stick with the zealos vote


Mattchew - do you accept zelblade's real life excuse and what he's posted? How has his return altered your read?

Another targert of intrest is Tunkeg. I already mentioned that I dont think that wanting to change one's meta is scummy, since players regardless of alignment might want to try out new styles of play. One point against him is that he didnt post that post before the game, but that is a minor factor to what I feel about his posting. He seems to emphasise that posting lists and reads gives "accountability", when in reality, it does nothing. How does knowing his reads, especially considering they are weak D1 reads which could easily be backpeddalled on, help town in anyway whatsoever? I have no idea what he means by accountability, considering townies can and will change their opinions overtime, and we do not need to know this. Notice how he also says that knowing his reads will help when someone is making a case on him. Wut? Why would a townie ever post something like that?

Lets lynch Tunkeg tomorrow after we get rid of zealos.


Before Tunkeg's recent... posts, I actually had a tentative town-read on him. Because he had ET marked as town originally only to make a case on him subsequently. This did not seem like a scum move to me.

What do you think about this?

Allright got the warning. I will actually write some of what I would write if you guys lynched me. Hence my reply to WBG if I wanted a townie to get lynched.

Yeah, I wouldn't mind getting lynched at all. I think this game have taken the course as many games do, where everyone keep mouthing off about how everyone else is bad, stupid, fucking useless etc etc (I don't care if it is directed towards me or anyone else, for instance the way syllogism played in liars should be frowned upon be the entire community). This is an environment I don't want to play in. It annoys the fuck out of me that you guys aren't capable of playing this game through arguements, but have to resort to namecalling and domination techniques. It actually annoys me to such a degree that I can't read the thread properly, nor play the game properly, and start caring less and less about the game. If TL towns can't deal with badmouthing players ruining the townenvironment the scum will keep dominating.
I have told Artonis to do as he please about it. I won't bate you into lynching me as long as you guys don't bate me into writing obvious "LYNCH ME!" stuff.


I'm going to defend both myself and others here. As far as I can see, there have been 3 main 'arguments' - Me/Zealos, VE/WBG, Me/Mattchew.

1. Me/Zealos - yes, we went at each other a bit. We never crossed a line though. And guess what? Totally of our own volition, we pulled the thread back into normality, and I got a read and case out of Zealos. Net outcome - productive, even if it took some spam preceding it.

2. VE/wbg. You should know these 2 regularly argue. Look at Liar as an obvious and recent example. This is what they do together.

3. Me/Matt. So we swore at each other which we should not, and then since it's been back to productive conversation. Tempers flare and arguments will be had, it is mafia. As far as I know, there is zero bad blood between us.

Your attitude is also deeply hypocritical. Taken from your meta-change post:

My biggest weakness is ... my temper.



Freely admitting your posting in the past has been disruptive, temper driven, involved in fighting, argumentatitve, and again temper.

I am starting to think one of Katina and Nova_Terra has to be scum.

Why you may ask?

It all hinges on Katina. In LI, she was one of only two players who pegged Toad AND VE as scum. Great read. In Liar Mafia, she pretty much nailed all the mafia at some stage. In short, she has good reads.

In this game, this leads to the following possibilities:

1. She is town and correct about Nova.
2. She is mafia pushing a fake case on Nova.

Personally I feel Katina's presented case is fairly weak, relying on 'spam' as a central point, despite admitting to wbg it was not alignment indicative. This is why I am at the moment discounting

3. She is town and incorrect about Nova.

I know this sounds paradoxical. I just feel that a town Katina would not both be incorrect and pushing a weak case.

Personally I feel like option 2 is the most likely, in conjunction with her general apathy for the thread.

I would like everyone to seriously think about this and give me their thoughts.

To be fair most of that was a conversation with WBG.

Tunkeg does look like scum who has given up though, seems like he isnt even trying anymore.

But zealos first.

@zealos who is the most likely to flip red today?


Tunkeg clearly isn't mafia, he's just a godawful town.

there is no way anyone who doesn't know tunkeg's alignment would come to this conclusion

stick with the zealos vote


Mattchew - do you accept zelblade's real life excuse and what he's posted? How has his return altered your read?

he hasn't posted anything that made me ready to give him a green background but I don't really think he's the best lynch today

also, that quote from ver isn't fitting for this situation.... noone is "someone who appears so unbelievably guilty" in this game, despite how strong you may believe your case and read on Zealos are. I mean look at all the counter examples, like acro from GoT who had a red check, from a confirmed (dead) DT. He went down swinging until his last moments (he tried so hard, it got him modkilled)


This is a good point, I will rethink

Obviously I didn't take part in the games you're referencing, but I'll take your word, unless you think I should read them over.
Assuming you're right with what you're saying, and Katina is normally very strong with her scumreads, maybe we should be putting more pressure on Nova. Her case is pretty weak, and I'd like her to elaborate on why she thinks Nova is scum, if she really believes Nova is scum, then she should try harder to convince us to vote for him.

In general though, it feels like people are to happy to see one good case and just jump on, rather than try to improve town atmosphere overall. Even if these players are town, they seem far too happy to sit back and let one or 2 influential veterans do all their work for them.


So you disagree with my conclusion that option 2 was more likely, given her general posting in the thread as well?

You do realise that even if you are townie, it doesn't make you miraculously correct in your reads, right? ^^

Two things that have given me back a bit of confidence in the Zealos lynch:

1) Matt's post about Acro in GoT
2) your wishy-washyness regarding Katina there

I'm kinda liking a Zealos/Katina scumteam atm

I would like to add a bit of meta case to my argument against Zealos.

Where he was scum in SNMM X he was aggressive from the get go.

He was townie in LIV and although he got mod-killed early and made practically no posts, there was one post that stands out.

At the moment it just feels like we are running in circles. We seem to be very quick at voting for the first thing that anyone does wrong without really thinking about it. We need to vote when we actually have a decent read, not when someone makes an offhand remark that seems a tiny bit "off" That's what I won't be voting till a little later, when I've got a better idea of who's who.

I think the Blub thing at the start was really pretty strange, but I'm not convinced it warrants a vote on its own.

Palmar: I don't get why he has to post so much useless stuff. I don't ever agree with the arguement "It's what he normally does" because it just lets him hide his scumminess. So what I would say to you is; if you're town, just tone it down a bit to allow people to make useful points instead of constantly replying to random stuff you're posting.



Conciliatory. Constructive. Non-abrasive - even when he's having a go at Palmar, he's actually trying to get him to post more usefully.

To the part in bold: he's not willing to make a vote there and then. He wants to think about it, and make a strong read before committing to a vote. Compare to this game.

Do you not have an opinion which? And presuming you do, why?

Leaning on terrible town, because his team would have shut him up or at least coached him by now imo. Still strongest lynch atm though. Lurked to begin with, followed with nonsensical posting.


You don't have a single scumread?

No strong ones, no, I haven't had a good enough look over the thread. I'll look over everything at the end of the night, because even if I tried to make a case now it'd probably be too late to get anything done about it.


I've posted 4 quotes here. He immediately votes on VE and then immediately switches to Acrofales. He later switches to Mouldy, with an excuse for deferring his scum hunt until later. Just for emphasis, compare to his attitude as town in LIV:

The other player I thought was a bit off was Zel. However, he was being super inactive and lurky at the time, so I expected him to be vigged, and so not worth the check.
The reason I did check Hiro, however, is that he was one of the few people who didn't bother questioning me about Jeb. I stand by my decision to vote for him, but it raised a few eyebrows, and for good reason. Hiro on the other hand didn't think twice of it, and was happy to just watch us townies argue between ourselves.

When he came out red, I *slightly* overreacted, hence, the moment I saw any reason to pile pressure on him, I took it, and hoped town would do the same. When this didn't happen, I subtly claimed in the hope one of the vets would see it. This is also why I asked earlier, that a vet would look over my filter and I asked "Is my few mafia traits the only thing that sticks out?" in the hope they would notice, and attempt to help me swing the votes over to Hiro.

Take from this what you will.


Fuck guys, come on, think about this a little.

Firstly, to the bold: you know when zelblade started getting suspicious to a lot of people? The first day of the 2nd Day cycle. Why? because during the Night he said he would provide reads the next day (i.e. the first day of Day 2). zelblade at the time of Night 1 was neither that lurky nor that suspicious to anyone.

Further to this, why on earth would Zealos expect him to be vigged?

There were several loud claims for vig shots, most notably: me - I wanted NT shot. wherebugsgo - he wanted Zealos and Tunkeg shot. there was also mention of Katina being vigged I believe.

Where in all this does Zealos come to the conclusion taht zelblade is likely to be vig shotted? IT MAKES NO SENSE.

This is Mafia LI mark 2, can't you guys see that?

Think about the timings of when zelblade got suspicious, think who Zealos apparently found suspicious, who Zealos made no mention of at all (seriously, his reason for checking Hiro is superweak - he didn't question me on Moudly?). zelblade was at no risk of being vig shotted.

This claim is as false as they come.

Because Zel was inactive and useless to town. I would have vigged him. Also, the hiro reason didn't need to be super strong at the time, it was either that or a random.


Bullshit. During Day 1 he was not inactive, he only started getting inactive later. Everything in my post stands.

Hiro conveniently comes out with this case allowing Zealos to attack him for it, and they proceed to attack each other.

Town needs to see that your reason for not checking zelblade is nonsense.

You were at a high risk of being lynched Day 2 anyway.

You have no breadcrumb on your check.

This whole thing reeks.

No, you're a liar, like you've been lying all game.

This is Mafia LI all over again.

Day 2 VE is under heavy fire. Comes out with a blue claim while bussing his team-mate. Team-mate gets infinite town credit (had the game not ended).

This is what is happening here. Whichever of Zealos or Hiro gets lynched, the other is going to get massive town credit. It's so see through.

Zealos has gotta be lynched. People were voting him because they thought he was scum, and now because of an un-breadcrumbed, badly reasoned (re: zelblade/vig, re hiro 'because he hadn't questioned him on mouldy) 'claim', he's suddenly telling the truth?

My case against him was based on large part on contradictions and lies, I don't know why anyone would suddenly believe a random claim/check.

There is an absolute TONNE of information waiting to be mined on how the Zealos lynch was both resisted and grew before the claim. There is also information to be had on how people reacted after the claim.

This isn't me saying anyone who didn't want a zealos lynch is scum, or anyone who believed his claim is scum. This is more that the manner and timing of such things can be revealing.

I have preliminary thoughts on who I think looks good and/or bad from this, but it's not the right time to share them yet before I can analyse.

Nova/Matt - have a think about this.

What do you think Zealos hoped to achieve by claiming?

Let's say for now, Scenario A: Hiro is townie. Two things can come of his claim:

1) people believe him for the moment and lynch Hiro, who flips town, and Zealos gets auto-lynched the next day
2) people don't believe him and he gets lynched immediately.

So it's either a 1 for 1 (never normally good for mafia) or it's a straight up death. I haven't done it yet but the one thing I really really need to do is go back and see just how many votes Zealos had at the time he 'breadcrumbed' his check. So, at best in this scenario, Zealos is making a 50% play for a 1 for 1.

Or there is scenario B

Hiro is scum. Two things can come of the claim

1) people don't believe him and Zealos gets lynched, Hiro gets town credit, especially as he's been attacking Zealos
2) people believe him, Hiro gets lynched as scum and Zealos gets a butt-tonne of town credit for 'catching' a scum

Further thoughts: why did Zealos choose Hiro? Seriously, think about this. The easiest way for people to believe your claim is if people believe your target is scummy. Zealos could have chosen, say, zelblade who he even made a case on. He could have chosen Nova_Terra (bolding because choosing him absolutely seems the logical play) who was under HEAVY pressure. Nova would absolutely have been the best guy to fake a claim on. He could even have chosen Katina the uberlurker. But he chose Hiro, who had, what, no suspicion on him? Did anyone suspect Hiro before Zealos' fabricated case on him?

All this leads me to think Scenario B is the most likely.

We need to consider Hiro on his own terms because arguments about whether he's scum or not in light of Zealos flipping scum are kind of wifomy.

Like, if you remember LI with the Toad/VE thing, in a situation like this when a scum flips after having pushed someone else pretty heavily, you have almost no way of knowing what the other guy is except based on his own behavior. In LI that was apparent through Toad's own behavior like his own bad claim and his own lack of scumhunting.

Hiro hasn't particularly scumhunted but he'll be forced to now that Zealos is dead and the main pressure is gone. So, we take this upcoming day to watch him carefully.

Is he a good lynch for tomorrow? No, as we need a bit of time to determine his alignment. I would say though, that tomorrow is a great time to lynch Acid or Katina.


I think you are too quick to dismiss it was wifomy. Of course it is somewhat speculative, and no we shouldn't lynch Hiro on the basis of this alone.

But what is playing mafia about at its core? It is about motivations, and especially motivations behind actions. Here we have a very specific action (Zealos choosing Hiro to fake claim on) from a confirmed scum. It is absolutely necessary to think about why Zealos chose HiroPro.

Also, you don't really have the right to claim this. It was you, specifically you, that raged against the thread and me in particular telling me that Toad was probably town because of his 'meta'.

Don't come here and say it was apparent toad was scum when you were the one who defended him most.

Nova/Matt - have a think about this.

What do you think Zealos hoped to achieve by claiming?

Let's say for now, Scenario A: Hiro is townie. Two things can come of his claim:

1) people believe him for the moment and lynch Hiro, who flips town, and Zealos gets auto-lynched the next day
2) people don't believe him and he gets lynched immediately.

So it's either a 1 for 1 (never normally good for mafia) or it's a straight up death. I haven't done it yet but the one thing I really really need to do is go back and see just how many votes Zealos had at the time he 'breadcrumbed' his check. So, at best in this scenario, Zealos is making a 50% play for a 1 for 1.

Or there is scenario B

Hiro is scum. Two things can come of the claim

1) people don't believe him and Zealos gets lynched, Hiro gets town credit, especially as he's been attacking Zealos
2) people believe him, Hiro gets lynched as scum and Zealos gets a butt-tonne of town credit for 'catching' a scum

Further thoughts: why did Zealos choose Hiro? Seriously, think about this. The easiest way for people to believe your claim is if people believe your target is scummy. Zealos could have chosen, say, zelblade who he even made a case on. He could have chosen Nova_Terra (bolding because choosing him absolutely seems the logical play) who was under HEAVY pressure. Nova would absolutely have been the best guy to fake a claim on. He could even have chosen Katina the uberlurker. But he chose Hiro, who had, what, no suspicion on him? Did anyone suspect Hiro before Zealos' fabricated case on him?

All this leads me to think Scenario B is the most likely.


We need to consider Hiro on his own terms because arguments about whether he's scum or not in light of Zealos flipping scum are kind of wifomy.

Like, if you remember LI with the Toad/VE thing, in a situation like this when a scum flips after having pushed someone else pretty heavily, you have almost no way of knowing what the other guy is except based on his own behavior. In LI that was apparent through Toad's own behavior like his own bad claim and his own lack of scumhunting.

Hiro hasn't particularly scumhunted but he'll be forced to now that Zealos is dead and the main pressure is gone. So, we take this upcoming day to watch him carefully.

Is he a good lynch for tomorrow? No, as we need a bit of time to determine his alignment. I would say though, that tomorrow is a great time to lynch Acid or Katina.


I think you are too quick to dismiss it was wifomy. Of course it is somewhat speculative, and no we shouldn't lynch Hiro on the basis of this alone.

But what is playing mafia about at its core? It is about motivations, and especially motivations behind actions. Here we have a very specific action (Zealos choosing Hiro to fake claim on) from a confirmed scum. It is absolutely necessary to think about why Zealos chose HiroPro.

He would say "lol I'm town" regardless of his alignment I imagine.

You answer me bugs - why did Zealos choose HiroPro, instead of someone like Nova_Terra? I want to know what you think the motivation behind that was.

That was a pretty quick start after we were full.

Anyways I have decided to play this game in a different manner then before. And if I can make it work I will continue in the games to follow.

Previous games
The Tunkeg of old was all about reaction based reads, which meant that I would provoke certain players to get a reaction. I would have a hypothesis about how they would respond as town and how they would respond as scum, and work off off that. The way I would do this was:
A: Suggest some kind of plan (or taking sides, and arguing for or against if someone else proposed a plan).
B: Picking fights.

Why change it up?
Even though I think it was a great way of finding scum for me. It wasn’t necessarily good for town. Many times it took up to much space, and some might even label it as disruptive. It have also led me close to being lynched many times, and often put me on the defensive straight from the get go. Constantly defending yourself makes it hard to put effort into proper scumhunting.

So what am I changing it to?
My goal in these games is to figure people out. Sure I definitely want to win, I hate losing, but more than winning I want to be right. To be right I will need to focus on my analysis, instead of fighting. What this means is:

1. I will not be posting as much as before. I will try to post better and longer posts though. And less one liners and useless crap. I will try to format my posts better.
2. I will control my temper. I will not be getting into any fights, I won’t be starting any and I will try not to get pulled into one. This also means I won’t be spending a lot of time defending my actions. If my posts are scummy you lynch me, if my posts aren’t you don’t .
3. I will try to post better analysis, and avoid insulting the ones I analyze. Again, I will try to post quality posts, and not many posts, meaning I won’t spend my time defending my analysis, I can clarify, but I won’t argue with nitpickers.



lynch all liars.

the fucking dick strikes again


You want to have WBG modkilled as well the marv? Equality or?


Just for the giggles, I will explain without sarcasm.

What did I do? I swore at Matt after he swore at me 3 times in a post

What did wbg do? He used your own words in retaliation against a completely unfair insult from you.

What did you do? You had a big strop about people being insulting, you basically gave up playing the game, and THEN you outrageously swore at someone without provocation.

I think you mistake BM for aggressive. It's an extremely rare thing indeed where I will directly insult someone.

Anyway, are we going to do some scumhunting today or are we going to wait for tomorrow?

Who do people think are good lynch targets at the moment?

What's the risk? It's taken me very specifically pushing the idea that Hiro could be scum for it to be even considered, and even then no-one is buying it. A quite likely possibility is that in making the play they hoped people wouldn't consider or push it at all like I've done.

Mattchew duped me in LIII, so I am not confident in my ability to read him well. I'm not inclined to lynch him though.

As you're aware, I already posted myself how 'convenient' it could be for Matt to speak in MTG and 'ride to the rescue' by posting normally. So I am aware of the possibility. At the moment I don't think it's the case though.

Her town play is very very strong. She emulates Foolishness, and honestly she does it incredibly well.

When we were scum in Arkham City together you recall how she played? That was her first game and for the most part she just stayed under the radar. That's what she's been trying to do this game.

In games where as town she gets accused, Katina is willing to get her hands dirty. Sure, she doesn't respond nearly as much as other players, but she at the very least DOES respond. She doesn't try to feign that her posts are of quality when they're not, such as in this case.

I'm not convinced that she's scum but I'd much rather kill katina over most of the other players in the game right now, probably even tunkeg. Acid goes first IMO though, he's almost definitely scum.


Do you have a case on Acid anywhere? Or do you fancy summarising for me the points that show Acid is definitely scum?

Right, 2 more apart from him.

I'll tell you partly why I get a town-read from Matt. We had our little tete a tete when I said he could be scum etc for his posting and coming back to normality.

imo if he was scum, he wouldn't have lost his rag at my prodding and sworn at me a bunch of times.
It seems a genuinely town reaction.

It would have had to have been a faked scum reaction to swear at me like that, and it was totally unreasonable and I do not believe Matt is totally unreasonable even when he is making plays.

Well, I mean it would be all to easy to fake an angry reaction - anger is the easiest thing to fake, you just have to throw a few curse words in there and that's that. The question is: do you believe the reaction was genuine IN CONTEXT. Like, do you think he had any reason to be as angry as he did? Because believing the reaction is genuine is one thing, but it has to make sense too in order for it to be genuine. Does Matt's "genuine frustration" seem understandable to you?


No, no, it's not just throwing in curse words. iirc, he said "shut the fuck up" to me twice and called me a dipshit. That's not just an angry reaction, that's specifically swearing at me in a way that he would know would be mod-warnable.

If Matt is scum and did that I think it's pretty damn low, and I don't think he is.

I'm not sure what to make of Katina's non-response to the claim issue. She could be an apathetic townie, but I'm really not sure. I've struggled with Katina. I quote below my 2 main thoughts / thought processes on her.

Specifically if you're interested in Katina you should look at my 2nd post.

Only his first game seems to be an anomaly with 5 pages after 9-10 days but that's still quite a lot (especially for a newbie game)

So why is it, Katina, that you're trying to pass off Nova's spam as exclusively a scum trait?


I'm not. I'm just saying he has done it before.



Yay, Nova, a case! I've quoted the part I find particularly compelling. You see, you have a veteran player who knows how to play the game, and yet is lurky. This is at least forgiveable if when they do turn up, they say something of note.

But here it's: Nova spams! And her response to wbg is even worse - "I know it's not alignment indicative, I'm just saying he spammed before". Her filter is short enough that when she contributes with the weakest sauce possible, it's superbad.

What does everyone else think?

I am starting to think one of Katina and Nova_Terra has to be scum.

Why you may ask?

It all hinges on Katina. In LI, she was one of only two players who pegged Toad AND VE as scum. Great read. In Liar Mafia, she pretty much nailed all the mafia at some stage. In short, she has good reads.

In this game, this leads to the following possibilities:

1. She is town and correct about Nova.
2. She is mafia pushing a fake case on Nova.

Personally I feel Katina's presented case is fairly weak, relying on 'spam' as a central point, despite admitting to wbg it was not alignment indicative. This is why I am at the moment discounting

3. She is town and incorrect about Nova.

I know this sounds paradoxical. I just feel that a town Katina would not both be incorrect and pushing a weak case.

Personally I feel like option 2 is the most likely, in conjunction with her general apathy for the thread.

I would like everyone to seriously think about this and give me their thoughts.

There's a town and scum narrative for virtually every action that can take place. Simply being able to provide both doesn't exclude the possibility of either.


Of course. But his posting I found consistent on the matter. If we took your view literally everyone would be suspicious all the time. The burden of proof lies with proving someone is scum, and my point is that in this instance I can easily read all those posts from townie Matt.

The Occam's Razor answer is that Matt was deeply uneasy about lynching a dt claim.

EBWOP: just to provide a counter-example:

when I looked at Zealos' meta. As town he absolutely rejected placing fast votes, wanting time to think and analyse before placing votes.

Here he threw out 2 votes immediately in 2 posts.

Occam's razor says the two games he is playing different alignments.

Probably. But from my point of view it seems scummy. I think he wanted to play the concerned town role, but I think he overdid it. If he was dead certain Zealos was town and had indicated it before I might have bought it. But remember his vote was on Zealos just before the DT claim, so he should be in doubt. And I don't think a doubting townie would push this much for either side, he would vote, give his reason and let it play out.


Okay, fair enough that you think that but I don't subscribe to it.

His vote was on Zealos despite previously it being on zelblade and saying he wasn't at all sure on Zealos. He moved it to Zealos with the comment that he was doing so because VE/me/wbg believed him to be scum. This was not a strong read on Zealos. It makes sense to me that Zealos DT claiming was easily enough for his opinion to sway back.

People get very, very passionate about blue claims.

Hell, in LIII I was town and I absolutely crusaded for VE's lynch after he blue-claimed day 1. Turns out I got him lynched, turns out VE was in fact blue, turns out I was townie.

This is Mafia LI all over again.

Day 2 VE is under heavy fire. Comes out with a blue claim while bussing his team-mate. Team-mate gets infinite town credit (had the game not ended).

This is what is happening here. Whichever of Zealos or Hiro gets lynched, the other is going to get massive town credit. It's so see through.


heres where im baffled about you voting zealos, if he's scum like you think, hiro is scum too. if hes not scum, your lynching our detective, while you coulda been lynching a red-checked hiro
To which I still don't have an answer from marv and maybe I'm wrong but I feel like I make sense. Marv basically says that he thinks Hiro is scum in both scenario's yet votes Zealos.


Sorry Matt, I forgot to reply. Basically my theory is that Hiro is scum and they were bussing to get whoever wasn't lynched town credit. But as others have pointed out, this does not have to be the case by any means, it's just what's in my mind at the moment.

I voted Zealos because he was the scum regardless of my little bussing theory. I had 2,3 or however many cases on why Zealos was scum and none on HiroPro, so naturally I was going to vote for Zealos.

Zealos, froggynoddy, Mattchew, Tunkeg, VisceraEyes, Acid~

These are the players that voted for HiroPro after the DT check. Zealos, Mattchew, Tunkeg, Acid~ are the players who didn't change their vote. I am certain there is at least one scum among the 5 that isn't Zealos, who either voted and switched or voted and stayed. VE I am scratching, same with froggynoddy (even if I am sold on him being town yet).



Tunkeg, why are you scratching VE from the possibilities?

I don't like this '50-50 case'.

This isn't the case. Zealos was getting lynched before he outed his claim because a lot of people believed he was scum. Hiro did not have a single vote.

I don't get in which world this is 50-50

Ok, I'm going out this afternoon and I won't be back until tomorrow, so in case I'm dead I just want to write down some thoughts.

On Zealos/Hiro:

Earlier I have been suggesting the idea that Hiro is scum and Zealos/Hiro were bussing. This remains a distinct possibility imo, but having read back on the thread and timings I am less convinced than I was before. Zealos hadn't had all the votes piled on to him yet, so it wasn't yet necessarily the case that he was going to get lynched (I feel the Zealos/Hiro both scum theory works best if Zealos was definitely getting lynched).

I am now inclined to believe another possibility - Zealos breadcrumbed the DT check simply in case it looked like he was getting lynched later. That way he at least had a possibility of dragging a townie down first before he got lynched, which would be a decent result. This seems consistent with how it went down - he brought up his claim to the thread at the point where everyone had decided to vote for Zealos after all, so he activated his last-ditch ploy.

Anyway, both these scenarios are still possible, but I wanted to talk about them both. The question that needs to remain in people's heads is: Why did Zealos choose HiroPro? Because even in the 2nd scenario, he could have selected someone else like Nova_Terra or even zelblade, and had a likelier chance to take them down first before he died.

About wbg and VE:

We all know wbg and VE do their own little thing in the thread, and it's remarkably hard to pierce it. Nonetheless they do need to be looked at and so I will do so a little.

On wbg:

It seems like he helped push the Zealos lynch with me, and a lot of his posting has been strong and makes sense. There's a couple of things I don't like though:

Okay marvel, let me ask you because Bugs will pretend to be exasperated if I ask him.

If we don't talk about our scum reads with each other, how are we to find scum? This is the big part about Bugs' play that I can't reconcile. I'm town, and I don't know who to trust...but I can't hope to find out who IS scum unless I get information from others about their reads and the reasoning for their actions. Bugs is abdicating responsibility for hunting scum with the phrase "information about reads in the hands of scum is bad"....but he handily glosses over the fact that without discussion our reads and reasoning, there's literally NO WAY TO FIND SCUM. Otherwise, we're just pointing a finger, lynching and hoping it turns out okay. We can't just randomly lynch, and we can't put all of our trust in one person to tell us who to lynch when there's no way to know if he's town or not (especially someone who isn't even willing to discuss his reads)

It doesn't make any sense, the way Bugs is playing. It's contradictory, and I can't understand what the hell he hopes to accomplish if he's town....and I know Bugs is better than this, so that is why I'm certain he's scum.


This point is valid, and is one I've alluded to myself. I dislike posts such as these:

Based on that alone I think there are at least two viable targets, but neither of them has received much attention. I'm gonna sleep on it for a bit and then if this Zealos thing doesn't take off I'll make a stronger case.


The first one is at best arrogant and at worst an abdication of scumhunting responsibilities. The 2nd... well actually yes, I would like to see the cases and reads myself, and it shouldn't be contingent on whether the Zealos lynch 'takes off'.

I expect to hear from wbg some more during this cycle on his reads. "I want the rest of town to do the work" or "people don't read" isn't a good reason not to present reads and cases. At the moment the way he's posted doesn't have to be scum, but if he continues to refuse to share his reads/cases, this will change.


Those kinda posts rub me the wrong way. Note how wbg says he doesn't want to give reads because town isn't listening, or wbg says that he'll post reads on 2 people 'later', or generally how wbg talks about not giving away information because giving reads is giving information to scum. Fair enough as a stance, perhaps, but it doesn't line up with

Like...I don't know, it doesn't make sense. Also his absolute certainty that Bugs being town like ALL game mystifies me considering the lengths bugs has gone to to not talk about his reads and shit.


I think the only person who's talked about reads more extensively than I have this game is marvellosity.


So wait... on one hand wbg repeatedly talks about giving reads can often give information to scum, on the other here he claims he talks about reads more than almost anyone else. These two sentiments do not make sense together.

alright, this is not going anywhere.

Day's almost half over and if people aren't willing to consolidate on zealos then we consolidate on zelblade. He needs to post anyway.

Vote with me, marv.

I also really did not like this. There's like 30 hours left in the day and he already wants to 'consolidate' on to another player where the only case is he was inactive. It's one post that really made me sit there and think "wow, really?!".

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On VE:

At the time of Zealos' doctor claim, I was especially interested in how VE and wbg would respond to it. The response I disliked most by far was from VisceraEyes.

After the claim, froggy, Tunkeg, and Mattchew voted for HiroPro in quick succession. However, I would expect VE to give the Zealos claim some critical thought, especially as he has been suspicious of Zealos before. But what do we get?

Gogo timely-claim!!

##Unvote Zealos
##Vote HiroPro


Nothing but a blind vote switch. No analysis on why it could be true or false. The suspicious part of me thinks that VE was behind Zealos' fake-claim, and then in the thread it looks like town is lapping it up so VE feels safe to carry on the trend. It is simply very odd that he just vote-switched like that. Bear in mind his vote here came before I started seriously attacking Zealos' claim.

He goes on to explain his switch IN HINDSIGHT (rather than at the time) with what I consider some fairly weak reasoning:

The worst that can happen is 1 for 1 unless Hiro is a miller or scum pulled a massive frame. I'm not buying either of those explanations...so I'm voting Hiro. Please remember that a lynch is imminent, we're in no danger of a no lynch and your opinion DOES matter.


He doesn't buy that scum could massively frame? What, like him/toad in LI, it's so unlikely? And still no analysis of why Zealos' claim is likely to be true or false.

But all of a sudden his opinion changes with some bullshit reasoning, and he goes on to quiz Zealos on why his claim is true and what not. But imo, too late, the ship has sailed.

Okay wait...Bugs is scum right? He's this big fake-claim advocate as scum...

Mattchew I'm gonna go with my gut here instead of my brain...surprise surprise right?

##Unvote HiroPro

What kind of reason is this? bugs is scum and he's a big fake-claim advocate? This is the weakest sauce possible for switching votes. Like seriously, look at how ridiculous it is. And look at how *hypocritical* it is. scum is this big fake-claim advocate? To bring it up again, it was VE's plan in LI to fake-claim as scum and bus his team-mate.

Everything is wrong here.

What I find the most interesting is that you came in here and posted half-assed attacks of me and Bugs now, when you're about to leave, but yesterday when we would have had time to respond to this stuff you had no interest. I mean, I get that it was late, but you had PLENTY of posts yesterday before you went to bed between the observations you just commented on and when you when you left the thread. If "Everything is wrong here" then why not mention it then when I could respond?


Because to put together the last post I had to

1) go back and read the thread where where Zealos first breadcrumbed
2) go back and read the thread at the point Zealos revealed his claim properly
3) looked through wbg's and my filter to put together my thoughts on him
4) looked at your filter in conjunction with how things went down in the thread

These things take time, and today is where I found that time.

Do not try to discredit what I say because of when I posted it.

As far as your analysis of my actions Marvel, to be fair I hadn't gone back to analyze the claim at all, as you say, but when I did I realized the truth immediately, and gave the only actual analysis of WHY he was absolutely lying.

Add to that the fact that I was, along with Bugs and you, one of the first today to put any pressure on Zealos and I would say that not quite EVERYTHING is wrong.


So what if you were vaguely suspicious of Zealos early on? Scum are quiet happy to vaguely bus their team-mates, and you did so before I made the first major case on Zealos.

As per my last post, it is the timings of how you responded to the claim that I find most suspicious. You went back to analyse only after I had heavily attacked the claim, and of course at that point it's very easy to argue for the switch. The fact is at the time when the wagon was growing on Hiro, you happily joined it with no critical thought. That is the pertinent point.

Why are you picking at wording? I was just saying that is the point of the thread to go back and read. Call it whatever the hell you like.

Yes, and my post there shows how that wasn't the case...
