This seems like bad justification to hide reads. | ||

Twelve and Vivax: my earlier post explains my stance. I don't like their play, but the only way they're scum is with a rather strange mistake in their strategy. Mistakes happen, but for now just a wary "watching them". Hyaach: somewhat similar. I don't get how KtheZ would end up on that list if he was scum. Katina: seems to have stepped up her play. Currently null. BKE: flew under my radar in D2 by being active, but on a second look through his reads are really on the usual suspects and he just sorta sheeps with enough content to seem like he's contributing while rehashing other people's arguments. Then goes afk and comes back to tell off everybody for lynching ET. Not sure why he ever dropped off my scumdar. Want to lynch. Maju: could be newbie town, but pretty null overall. One thing is that Maju as scum has gotten caught on D1 in both my games. This D1 seems acceptable for a newbie town. I like that he's making sense. He's using decent logic and not taking bullshit (see response to BM and his role in the ET/wiggl3s spat). Sensible play doesn't make him town, but it does mean I feel more confident to be able to read him. Grush: I probably shouldn't be transferring reads from one game to another, but I think he's scum in SSB and I think he's playing the exact same style in this game... a sort of trolly lurker style. I like the lynch. ShiaoPi: still reading a newbie town here. His absense is a bit worrying, but seems like a bad lynch. casualman, Kurumi: unreadable. Someone advised earlier to not DT check these, but these seem to me exactly where DT checks should be used: they are unreadable and will be unreadable all game. Grush might also be in this list, but I feel he's scummier than either of these two. Rest are null or town and don't get a special mention here. | ||

How the hell did we end up lynching the person who was going to be modkilled either way?! Looking at the vote the following persons were switching last minute, I'll share some thoughts: Acrofales: I can live with the reasoning he provided here. + Show Spoiler + On July 05 2012 05:50 Acrofales wrote: Okay. Gone over the whole passage and it's a giant contradiction. I can't make sense of this. Just gonna post it in case someone else can make sense of the screwball logic that is happening here: First relevant post, when Twelve goes all paranoid theory: + Show Spoiler + On July 03 2012 06:43 Twelve wrote: I'm hesitant to post this,but I have a feeling I may be killed tonight, and a REALLY strong feeling NoSmurfHere WILL NOT be Mafia killed tonight. I made a list of people who jumped on the mKmKmK lynch as I felt it was just an attempt of mafia to get a townie lurker lynched. As I went through the list of names using their filters, I came to some tentative conclusions. My current read is that if there is a Ringleader in this game (godfather), it is NoSmurfHere. + Show Spoiler + NoSmurfHere New Zealand. July 01 2012 10:25 Also your belief in "proof" probably suggests you shouldn't be playing mafia, given that most accurate reads are not based on anything anywhere close to proof. I feel he may be breadcrumbing for a detective role check. It was just a note next to his name when I Look at the interaction between NoSmurfHere and rastaban. After NoSmurfHere starts the bandwagon against mKmKmK(a lurker lynch I really didn't agree with), he seems very interested in a role claim from NoSmurfHere, perhaps trying to get a detective to waste a night and make a really dangerous "confirmed towny". + Show Spoiler + On July 01 2012 00:53 rastaban wrote: Yeah let's not anger the host. The other option is he is a blue acting strangely to it, but I am sure Mafia already thought of this if he isn't on their team so he is outed regardless of alignment. I think this is the easy and probably accurate lynch for today, so we should be thinking about pushing for a role claim from him. I may be reaching, but again, I think I may wake up dead and wanted to get my thoughts out there. Is he trying to link Bugs and Rastaban as scum members? He quotes Rastaban talking with EchelonTee about Bugs's VT roleclaim and says he's quoting an exchange between Rastaban and Bugs. At the time, I read this as him saying Rastaban or mK was a town DT who Bugs was trying to poke into checking him at night. I also didn't read Rastaban's post as him saying someone should check Bugs at night, but rather someone should check mK. So this whole thing confused me and all I got from that was "he says bugs is scum, but out-wifoms himself and says he's the godfather". That has two explanations: he's scum and knows bugs will look like town, or he's a townie out-wifoming himself who really thinks bugs is scumslipping his godfather role (as marvellosity seemed to think). What I didn't get from it was the theory of Bugs+Rastaban scumbuddies. The follow-up at daytime: + Show Spoiler + On July 04 2012 09:39 Twelve wrote: Alright I'm going to try and clarify some things since apparently I didn't explain myself very coherently. On the Foxtrotter swtich - I had just got a scummy read on foxtrotter out of the thread. I checked the voting thread and saw that a large bandwagon had formed on him. When I went to find out why there was such a huge swing of votes towards him, I noticed that I had less then 1 hour to vote. Instead of figuring out exactly how much time I had I just "ninja" switched in both threads. On saying "soooo, i guess i'll shut up :D " - I had just posted a ridiculous conspiracy theory/rant against NoSmurfHere. I still think he is scum, but it was a bad way to present the information. Anyways, pretty much every single thing I wrote turned out to be false. NoSmurfHere cannot be ringleader because BM was the Ringleader. Rastaban cannot be NoSmurfHere's mafia partner because Rastaban turned up green. Once i knew the facts, I felt silly for posting my theory, and offered to shut up. So this could be the fantastic failing of a scumplan and him covering it up. Or it could be a townie explaining how his giant conspiracy theory just failed spectacularly. I think this needs to be sorted out before we lynch Twelve and I am kinda backing down from my case. The rest of his filter is still terrible, but I agree that this whole conspiracy theory into backpedalling is too fucking weird to see from a scum mindset from my point of view. ##unvote for now. He is at least making some solid reasoning behind it.

I switched to ET because mathematically, if I had voted for any other person, I would have been the one getting lynched. @casualman I've been asking about you and BKE since day one, don't try and act like my play has shifted dramatically. But the stuff from D1-D2 still remains and I really wished we had flipped you... Kurumi: Still a god damn null. But I really don't like the last-minute switch, coupled with the general unhelpfullness until now, tending scum. NSH: I really dislike the reason he provided, which was basically sheeping.

When asked about it his further explanations are the following: [spoiler] On July 06 2012 06:52 NoSmurfHere wrote: [/spoiler]Austin, I think you make very good points. The reason I sheeped Acro was because I had been afk for about 12-13 hours and I wanted to ensure that my vote traveled with the pertinent information I missed. Obviously I shouldn't have switched but I saw Acro, VE and a couple others on ET. I also had a nagging scumread of ET based on his absence but I suppose that can be explained by the holiday in retrospect. My townread on Acro was based on him pushing BM so mercilessly. I actually considered for a time that he might be an active scum attempting to establish himself but I don't remember at which point I dropped him as a suspect; I suppose it was because there were too many people who were scummier than him. Let's see what happens in the next cycle. I'm still very interested in killing grush. ShiaoPi is still suspicious as well. I'll be back later if I'm still alive, gotta go to discussion for my class now. Reread that and tell me it is not just a rehashed version of sheeping. If he was confident in his scumreads (as he seemed to be) why does he feel the need to switch off it for a "nagging scumread", which was not on his to-kill-list? The rest of his filter is looking extremely town to me, cannot say I have a clear scumread on him but this switch is making me doubt my townread and tending towards a null.

The voting was too fishy to be random town stupidity in my book. I suspect one or two of the guys switching to ET to be scum. Probably not the guy who started it, would be too obvious. Mafia just picked up on a townie changing votes and got the bandwagon rolling. | ||

Day 3: Dirty Tricks ![]() austinmcc looked at the Jack-In-The-Box that sat on the small wooden table in front of him. He wasn't quite sure what to make of it. It wasn't his, in any case, and he had never seen it before. When he had come back into his wagon after the performance, the box had been sitting there, a tag hanging from it's handle reading "Play With Me!". Since then, he had been pacing back and forth across the room trying to decide what to do with it. It was probably just a harmless toy, and that part of austinmcc wanted to turn the handle and giggle when the clown popped out of the box. On the other hand though, niggled a voice in the back of his mind, there had been some dirty tricks played on some of the other performers recently. austinmcc weighed the two options mentally and, making a decision, reached out towards the Jack-In-The-Box. Meanwhile, outside, two Clowns were leaning against a wagon across the way from austinmcc's while sharing a cigarette. One of them took a long draw from it before passing it to his friend. As he went to grab it, they both heard the loud sound of an explosion from austinmcc's wagon. They looked at each other, grinning widely, and then skipped arm in arm away from the scene, cackling madly as they did so. austinmcc the Vanilla Townie fell to temptation! Day 3 begins now! You have roughly 46 hours from this post, until 08:00 KST two days from now to decide the lynch. | ||

He made a lot of good points though, I'm not surprised by the hit at all. | ||

Examine his BM interaction on d1 and you'll see that BM and Acro distance each other pretty heavily. BM's reasoning on voting Acro is incredibly strange and their interaction seems very forced. In addition I was wondering why Acro hardlined against BM so hard, without ever expressing even the tiniest doubt. He could have nailed him as scum 100%, but that type of thing is so unlikely on d1 that I find it rather suspicious in retrospect. like this post: On July 01 2012 16:11 Bill Murray wrote: vig shoot Adam first because he asked you to shoot broke the golden rule it's clear BM wasn't afraid of distancing himself from his buddies. So, it's more than plausible that some of the players that BM interacted with are indeed scum. Recall this: On July 01 2012 08:25 Bill Murray wrote: Acrofales FoS on BKX is fishy as fuck if BKX flips scum, will you all listen to me on acrofales?

Let's kill grush instead of Twelve, since my gut is telling me he's scum too, but I think he's actually more likely than Twelve to flip scum. ##unvote ##vote grush57 | ||
