Shraft I agree about lurking but I think the first order of business should be to get as many people as we can to stop lurking, I'm worried about making a case like this on ZB at this second because I think it's case on the lurker who's contributed the most because he has contributions to look at while there are others (furer and hyaach among others) who have yet to make any strong statements, they have almost nothing that can be analyzed and that's something we should make clear they have to stop even before we try to get someone lynched.

I also would encourage any real vig we have to strongly consider shooting a hardcore lurker so we don't have to waste a lynch on them and because even if they're town it narrows down the lurkers making it much harder for scum to get away with it. If you're town and you haven't been active please it can only help town, even if you think your reads aren't good or are not positive what you want to push at the second, the very act of you talking in the thread makes it harder for scum to hide while doing no work.

Make sure I get all night actions before 21:00 GMT (+00:00).

This is another reminder that the night action deadline is ONE HOUR BEFORE the normal night deadline. You have roughly 13 and a half hours from the time of this post to get in night actions and then another hour after that until the actions are resolved and the nightpost is put up.

Yes, I agree that we do need to get them to post. Out of the lurkers (zelblade, furerkips, Hyaach, and maybe Snarfs) I think that zelblade is the one looking most suspicious. That's exactly why I wrote my analysis on him. I don't think your reasons for worrying are valid. zelblade has not made a strong statement about anything yet either, and his posts are lacking just about as much as Hyaach's. I don't know what you really mean with "... and that's something we should make clear they have to stop even before we try to get someone lynched". If you think my way of putting lurkers in the spotlight is bad, how'd you suggest we get them to post? By asking nicely? We need to threaten them, or they are going to keep lurking (and get away with it), that's just how it works.
Regarding Hyaach, I find him the second most suspicious of the lurkers, simply because of his complete lack of contributions along with just jumping on the easiest lynch without much thought.
I believe that furerkips has posted most out of the three lurkers (I'm not saying that he's contributed enough, or that he's probably town). It's disturbing that he has not posted anything for two days. He seems to be indifferent to the outcome of the lynch as well, coming in and just placing his retarded vote on VE in the beginning of the day and then disappearing, not coming back for two (?) days.
Snarfs has not posted that much either, I don't really know if I'd call him a lurker. Either way, when he has posted, he seems to post relevant stuff, and he does not simply come in and vote on the easiest target without providing any reasoning. I'm getting a town vibe from him.

I'm not that suspicious of Navillus anymore. All of my problems with him came from one post that I thought was loaded with scumminess, but I haven't been able to notice anything scummy about his subsequent posts. I've made the mistake of tunneling a player based off of one really scummy post before, and I am not going to do it again. Additionally, we now know that Pandain had a town read on him.

I've got this gut feeling that at least part of the Mafia is lurking. They might have one active veteran player in VE/BH but I think that at least one (likely two) of them are skating by without posting much.
My proposed lynch target for Day 2 is zelblade.
My first issue with him are these questions:

it takes huge balls on claim this early, be it fake/real and its not a fool proof plan imo mafia or town.


Besides, from his claim, i would put all his analysis on a magnifying glass to be dismembered and examined piece by piece.


Why would it take "huge balls" to claim if he is town?

Why would you let him live for only "a day"?

Why would you put his analysis specifically to be dismembered and examined just because his is immune to checks? Does this mean you think this claim is suspicious?

And you didnt answer this: Why did you state that you are going to let him leave for only "a day?"

Eh wait what did you mean by "paint a targert on his head"

It generally means a targert for scum to shoot (thats what I thought you said) but did you mean a targert to be lynched instead?

They make him appear pro town, when in reality he doesn't really have to anything at all. They make it seem like he's contributing to the town even though he's not. I wouldn't have as much of an issue with them if it weren't for his lack of contributions to the town. (VE also poses a lot of questions, but he also brings new information to the table, makes his own cases, etc.)
After this he returns after about 24 hours just to jump on the Pandain lynch with this post:

Apologies for the splotchy activity have been a little busy of late.

Either way I would be perfectly fine with a Pandain lynch. The blueslip feels exteremely fake to me. Slipping like that is akin to making a major scumslip... and one is more likely than not going to be more careful about leaking their role no? As pointed out, the random vig claim as well as the random mason discussion managed to severly derail the thread which reeks of scum. A couple more points is that he tries to dump suspision on me through a vauge statement. [1]

+ Show Spoiler +

I'm also very suspicious of Zellblade, as he's hardly posted at all. In fact, hilariously enough, he's just asked interogative questions. Which I find hilarious and will do one day.


Call it OMGUS if you will, but the combanation of his mispelling my name and calling me bad hurts my feelings =(

So why are interogative questions suspicious? I found hyaach's post to be a little.... wierd so I questioned it. Why do you even bring me up if you dont intend to lynch me today? (Assuming this since he wants to lynch BH + he isnt even bothering to make a serious case) Town doesnt bring up every little suspision they have and put it out in the open, and this side comment looks alot like mafia attempting to derail the discussion onto me. Note that this is when pressure starts going onto him. [2]

##vote: pandain

  1. The part about the blue slip being akin to a major scum slip and the claim feeling fake is mostly insipid bullshit, and the part about him derailing the thread had already been taken up several times.
  2. This feels really much like scum trying to find scumminess in people they know are town. I mean "Why do you even bring me up if you dont intend to lynch me today?". Come on. His remark about "town not sharing their every suspicion" is also bullshit. I've seen players who like to share all their suspicions, and I've seen other people who make out plans to catch scum, not sharing any reads until they believe that they have fool-proof case on their target. Besides, even if your statement was true, that was not what Pandain was doing. He was not "sharing all his suspicions", he was merely stating that he found you suspicious. It doesn't really seem like at attempt at derailing the thread either. If he wanted to shift the attention towards something else, I believe he could've come up with something that works better than just "I find X suspicious".

Keep in mind that this is the only lenghty (it's lenghty compared to his other posts) post that zelblade has written, it contains only bullshit, and he does not take a firm stance on anything. He is just "fine with the Pandain lynch". His two most recent post about furerkip's scum slip (which furerkip has yet to explain, by the way) brings no new information either.

Basically what I'm saying is that if zelblade doesn't do some quality posting during Day 2, we should lynch the fuck out of him.


I dont see how me saying that the blueslip seemed fake is bullshit, when it seemed so forced. I cannot wrap my head around someone "slipping" like that, and thus thought it was fake, and thus thought he was fakeclaiming scum since doing that as town makes no sense.

Basically I agreed with the pandain case and thought that he was most likely to flip scum on a couple of points, and I mention them in passing. So just because I dont bring up any new points means im scum? Really? As town I usually sheep cases that I find are good/likely to hit scum, might I ask, how is this suspicious to you?

Also, "im fine with a pandain lynch" = I want to lynch pandain, I think hes scum and he needs to hang. Are you really going to nitpick over a small thing like phrasing? Me voting him means me making a stance on the issue. What does "firm" stance even mean? I guess its fine to accuse me if I try to shrink away from responsibility after the lynch, but am I doing that?

It makes little sense as scum as well. Either way, the jump from bad claim -> scum is not straightforward, and you do not offer any explaination about it, except that it "reeks of scum". It's bullshit because it's taking an action that is not very telling of his alignment and saying that it reeks of scum, without you explaining why.

It's not suspicious by itself, but when you're not contributing anything at all, along with only sheeping your votes, it starts to worry me.

I agree that it's a minor thing, but I don't think that "I'm fine with the Pandain lynch" equals "I want to lynch Pandain".

I think its fairly obvious why fakeclaiming vig as a vt d1 isnt exactly the smartest thing.

As stated I was busy with stuff. Will have more time so dont worry about it.

It does equal it -_-
Even if you dont think it does the fact that I voted him along with the post should say something no?

Townies do stupid stuff as well. There's a difference between doing something dumb and doing something scummy. You might be right about my concern with your wording/not taking a firm stance issue, but that's still just a minor part pf my concern with you. We should stop arguing this. It is not going to render us anything useful. There is a better way for you to convince us that you are town. Go look for scum.

There is too much talk on VE and Furer. To start out, claiming miller was indeed a good move if town. It gives information to us and suggests that as blues we not check him, allowing us to use our powers on other people.

VE is almost certainly town. There's a small chance he's a badass serial killer, but for him to have claimed(vulnerable to counterclaims) requires an element of risk which I do not think the SK would use. There is almost certainily not 2 millers in this setup, as having two "false" townies, as well as all the other Alignment-Confusing roles would just decimate the cop's role.

Since the risk of being counterclaimed would be so damning, I do not think that VE would have claimed miller if he was mafia/SK. Especially so soon as the day started.

Furer is just playing poorly, but his play does not reek of scum. He voted rashly against VE, the very first(and only) vote so far. I do not think mafia would risk bringing so much attention to themselves. He's not only single handedly try to lynch VE, but he's done it with a reckless aura that excludes mafia.

I think Mr. Zentor is very suspicious, and should be looked at instead. He's offered very weak arguments, suggesting he does not want to force his opinion onto the town. He's offered vague statements that do not really put himself out there("a bit rash", "would probably", "I think, but we should") which do not prove him being mafia but merely cause me to be watchful.

I am also somewhat suspicious of Navillus, but it is more of a general feeling than specific evidence.

I do agree that the "accidental claim" looks a bit forced.

It could be that he claimed later as a vanilla town to act as a target.

I'm starting to think it's more likely that he's scum though, as why would he lie about accidentally claiming instead of saying that he was breadcrumbing if he were vanilla town?

We could WIFOM away about why he might have said there are 4 scum (I can think of both town and mafia motivations, whether that number is right or not), or you could try and find someone doing scummy things.

For instance, VE just called out a BH/zelblade possible scum team. Can you read through the thread and give us your opinion on those two players?

Snarfs who do you think is scum besides BH?

Katina seems to have it in her head that I'm scum, in spite of me trying my hardest to just emanate green...to be honest the fervor with which she believes her (awful) case and the timing of it are extremely suspicious to me. Like, if she's been this suspicious of me all game, why hasn't she been trying to get me lynched? Especially with built in support in the form of Furerkip's placeholder vote?

What do you think of Katina sir? She's been all over BH, which I'm sure you like, but what do you think about her case on me?

Hyaach is your only read that I can see...wanna expand on that in addition to answer my question regarding Katina sir?

But fair enough. Actually it's not very likely with my claim and my spearheading a townie lynch that I'll be hit anyway, so I can wait. ^^

I guess you're not very concerned about dying Artanis? /:|

11PM isn't the time when people die. 12PM is. There's an hour of discussion time where people can't change their night actions anymore, but day doesn't come into effect yet.
