You start of saying that you think that there are "A couple of possible tells" that could be used against you. Then you keep saying that you don't know any differences between your scum and town play. Then you claim that there are very few of them as far as you are aware.

I interpret this post.

As saying that you don't know anything about what differentiates your scumplay and your townplay. I know you say "very few" and that could indicate that you know of a few, but since you haven't actually posted what those would be and for the fact that you have once and once again given very diffuse answers about your scum and town play(i.e. "I play more carefree as town) I don't think that would be a proper interpretation.
I interprate this as two statements about what you know about your play that is contrary to one another.

how is 'very few' different from 'a couple'? I've posted my little heart out on what they are/might be (how i'm more impulsive as town, less scummy as scum) and yet you find these answeres unacceptable.

From one of the forum's most prolific observers in LV

So basically you attack me for not posting an answer that you find acceptable even though it is true:

And sure, you kinda answered the question but I don't think that "I play more care free as town" really counts as a proper answer. Escpecially not after all that slithering. Most people are more careful as scum and your answer pretty much doesn't say anything about your actuall play.


And now you attack me for saying I have very few differences. Right, I have very few differences, and having elaborated on the ones that exist, you don't like them.

Keep trying

How can you not see what I've highlighted (in nested too) is absolutely consistent?! Of course the answers are 'diffuse' given there aren't glaring differences given the quality of my scum play...

Snarfs: You aren't thinking of the rest of town. Pointing out that people aren't contributing is a minor contribution that scum can just as easily make (and in fact no doubt are glad to make against townies) - it's not like we are totally oblivious to people who haven't posted anything / lurking. You yourself have yet to produce any read on anyone, and from our standpoint we have no idea what your alignment is.

MrZentor: You missed Prob's post here, where he points it out and I respond accordingly here.

Everyone should back off Marv for a while because as town it is difficult to produce proper analysis / reads when all your energies are expended on defending yourself. D1 will be disastrous if he ends up town as scum could easily blend in and start provoking him. Just watch what he does with his "free time" and based on that we can deem him worthy of D1 lynch or not. Also notice that if he is scum, he can easily use his defense as "contribution", while not actually helping us find scum. So back off and scrutinize what he does this game.

I really liked Shraft's first post on catching rastaban's fluff, and I'm surprised no one else bothered to comment on it. There is general neutral fluff and allusions to games that don't really help us find scum here.
Post in question:
On June 22 2012 16:46 rastaban wrote:
Just caught up on what is the "haps", here are my thoughts.

First, I agree with the Millers claim day one, and policy lynching all Millers after today. In a game where they are self aware it is a huge boon for town. The benefits far out way the negative of less people with possible blue roles. First and most importantly it guarantees our checks. Detectives know any red checks from non-mafia get lynched, since sanity isn't an issue in this game. Any Mafia will always claim miller if checked and we don't force a day 1 reveal. It will cause a lot of confusion, it is best to eliminate this by forcing day one claims. It also forces Mafia's hand, if they want to claim they have to do it now before they are in too much water. This is hard for mafia to do, they don't want to be scrutinized and that is why they claim miller as a last resort. While it is argued that Millers make it easier to snipe blues it also makes our blues more effective. Look at Bang Bang where I, as a doctor, pushed strongly for a miller claim night one.

Second, the focus of Marv makes me think of karma after seeing him do it to Gonzaw in our last game together. We need to be careful with tunneling though, when you push someone so hard day1, they will often come across as scum no matter what since the only content you have is them trying to defend themselves against accusations. He could be scum but I just want to say that we need to be cautious, as I feel the case against him is a bit biased. Now his day 1 "meta" is to spam 1 liners so I personally wouldn't mind him getting lynched if there isn't a better candidate but I feel like there is too much discussion on him this early in our day. Remember we have 48 hours, half that time hasn't even passed yet so I don't like the band wagoning on Marv so quickly.

That said I have a hard time getting anything from his filter right now. Some people analyze best when their quarry is under pressure but for me that introduces too many variables so I like to read posts where they aren't defending themselves. So marv would you mind answering the original question ( as leading as it may be) about what you feel are your tells, and second who do you feel is most likely scum?

Says we have too much discussion on Marv. Concludes his first post by asking marv more questions.

There are differences marv. For instance, townMarv is interested in finding scum. scumMarv is interested in lynching townies.

Also, both townMarv and scumMarv are good enough to realize that I'm very obviously town in this game, so the fact that you're calling me "dodgy" still (not scummy, not scum, not suspicious, not suspect....."dodgy") just confirms that you're not interested in finding scum today. For that, you're gonna die friend. Sorry. *shrug*
if I had to describe his playstyle, it'd be a coked up rabbit with the attention of a goldfish injecting caffeine into himself directly through an IV drip. it's like a reel of random animated shorts where things just blow up randomly

I would like to put forward a new actor into the spotlight who I feel doesn't want this movie finished. One risk.nuke! This fellow looks shady to me and he must have gotten Kirsten Stewart for his actor for the poor job he has done hiding his distain for our movie.

Wants to lynch zeph but like most bad actors he says the lines but doesn't have his actions (vote) match up to his words. He doesnt want to have the case lead back to him, and until more people have joined in he holds his vote. Perhaps you might think he is an actor who values life and is very conservative with his voting habits, but you will soon see that is not the case.

In fact, we can't even confirm the existence of a SK until after the night phase.

I'm not sure about Millers instaclaiming. While it clears path for cops(as it's pretty obvious that they will show red), it also reduces the number of possible blues, making it easier for scum. At least what I understood from the setup is that Millers can't be blues.

If anything, Millers should be breadcrumbing and claiming in case a cop calls them guilty. For all other purposes, they should be *Vanilla*(unclaimed, aka. possible blue) to make it harder for mafia to shoot into blues.


Thanks, I will pass this on to my scumbuddies immediately.

Marv is showing how absurd it is to have millers breadcrumb so they can be saved later, and this post is the one risk decides justifies throwing the weight of his vote behind? I think he thought the risk train was gaining momentum and wanted to get on board.

Here is his latest post, what!!!??? This is so out of the blue, he never says why he changes his mind, he doesn't even say why he votes for klaust though I am guessing inactivity. This is a huge throw away vote meaning nothing as he doesn't even ask for klaus to speak up. On top of that look at the time stamps, this occurs 10 hours after his Last post. So picture this, risk votes marv, 10 hours later he comes and votes klaust with no reasoning at all. Ahha, but what has changed? Well I and a few others have pushed for slowing down on tunneling marv, and he realizes that it might not happen. Prob mentions the lurkers need to get posting and names klaust as one of them, risk immediately votes for him. So he has 10 hours between his posts and apparently knows enough to change his mind on the marv lynch and that klaust hasn't posted yet and still we don't get even a single line of content from. This is a mafia mindset, all of hs targets are equally scummy since none of them are scum so he doesn't care about who gets lynched as long as it isn't them.

Let's kick this sham of an actor off our set before he changes this movie from Signs into The Happening.

This is insidious, confirming/calling yourself as town play, while calling anyone who is suspicious of you scummy. Buddy 'friend' 'sorry' justification at the end. Extremely weak.

That is not town play.

"Also both townVE and scumVE are good enough to realise that my defence is clearly townie this game, so the fact that you persist in tunneling me just confirms you're not interested in finding scum today. For that, you're gonna die friend. Sorry. *shrug*"

@rastaban
That case is extraordinarily weak. You could've summed it up in one sentence: "risk.nuke has not yet posted anything of value.". The part about him switching his vote is not a scum tell, and what had happened was that ten more hours passed without VK posting anything. It's just a simple pressure vote.

What was this incriminating post? Well I thought it must have been the dodge marv made or perhaps his posts where he says he is confidant he doesn't get lynched, but no it is this one.

This is a semi-closed setup. If there are 13 players, it's possible that 12 are medics and 1 is a scum. Of course that's retarded as fuck, but nothing is concrete and we shouldn't think "but it's not common to 2 of X" exist ever. at all.

In fact, we can't even confirm the existence of a SK until after the night phase.

I'm not sure about Millers instaclaiming. While it clears path for cops(as it's pretty obvious that they will show red), it also reduces the number of possible blues, making it easier for scum. At least what I understood from the setup is that Millers can't be blues.

If anything, Millers should be breadcrumbing and claiming in case a cop calls them guilty. For all other purposes, they should be *Vanilla*(unclaimed, aka. possible blue) to make it harder for mafia to shoot into blues.


Thanks, I will pass this on to my scumbuddies immediately.

Marv is showing how absurd it is to have millers breadcrumb so they can be saved later, and this post is the one risk decides justifies throwing the weight of his vote behind? I think he thought the risk train was gaining momentum and wanted to get on board.

##Unvote: marvellosity
##Vote: von Klaust II

Here is his latest post, what!!!??? This is so out of the blue, he never says why he changes his mind, he doesn't even say why he votes for klaust though I am guessing inactivity. This is a huge throw away vote meaning nothing as he doesn't even ask for klaus to speak up. On top of that look at the time stamps, this occurs 10 hours after his Last post. So picture this, risk votes marv, 10 hours later he comes and votes klaust with no reasoning at all. Ahha, but what has changed? Well I and a few others have pushed for slowing down on tunneling marv, and he realizes that it might not happen. Prob mentions the lurkers need to get posting and names klaust as one of them, risk immediately votes for him. So he has 10 hours between his posts and apparently knows enough to change his mind on the marv lynch and that klaust hasn't posted yet and still we don't get even a single line of content from. This is a mafia mindset, all of hs targets are equally scummy since none of them are scum so he doesn't care about who gets lynched as long as it isn't them.

Let's kick this sham of an actor off our set before he changes this movie from Signs into The Happening.

##Vote: risk.nuke


Post-by-post case on a <24hr game, huuuuuuuuuuuge fluff accusing no one other than risk - I'm scummy when I'm town because I never roll scum - nuke.

Have you played other games, rastaban? link me please.

Yeah bang bang that just wrapped up, check out my post on cephiro, which nearly everyone ignored based on his few early game posts but in the end it was found out he was mafia.
I think you are dismissing it way to fast. I may have played up bits to fit the setting but I stand by what I said, I really don't see town swapping votes like that with no reason and the sudden defense of him is quite astounding to me.

rastaban: no, someone said they were gonna lynch me and I said "lol, ok" - risk says lol ok = scum response and votes me. Will read your case in more detail later but that's a correction for now

Thanks I misunderstood the Iine of thought there. I really want to hear risk give some reasoning for his bad play.

I'm not fine with lynching marvellosity at the moment. From what I gather, he is a good player and the case against him consists mainly of meta and him not responsing straight to Mattchew's question. I agree that it's a bit scummy, but not enough to warrant lynching a good player. I'd rather lynch someone like rastaban:

Just caught up on what is the "haps", here are my thoughts.

First, I agree with the Millers claim day one, and policy lynching all Millers after today. In a game where they are self aware it is a huge boon for town. The benefits far out way the negative of less people with possible blue roles. First and most importantly it guarantees our checks. Detectives know any red checks from non-mafia get lynched, since sanity isn't an issue in this game. Any Mafia will always claim miller if checked and we don't force a day 1 reveal. It will cause a lot of confusion, it is best to eliminate this by forcing day one claims. It also forces Mafia's hand, if they want to claim they have to do it now before they are in too much water. This is hard for mafia to do, they don't want to be scrutinized and that is why they claim miller as a last resort. While it is argued that Millers make it easier to snipe blues it also makes our blues more effective. Look at Bang Bang where I, as a doctor, pushed strongly for a miller claim night one.

Second, the focus of Marv makes me think of karma after seeing him do it to Gonzaw in our last game together. We need to be careful with tunneling though, when you push someone so hard day1, they will often come across as scum no matter what since the only content you have is them trying to defend themselves against accusations. He could be scum but I just want to say that we need to be cautious, as I feel the case against him is a bit biased. Now his day 1 "meta" is to spam 1 liners so I personally wouldn't mind him getting lynched if there isn't a better candidate but I feel like there is too much discussion on him this early in our day. Remember we have 48 hours, half that time hasn't even passed yet so I don't like the band wagoning on Marv so quickly.

That said I have a hard time getting anything from his filter right now. Some people analyze best when their quarry is under pressure but for me that introduces too many variables so I like to read posts where they aren't defending themselves. So marv would you mind answering the original question ( as leading as it may be) about what you feel are your tells, and second who do you feel is most likely scum?

His post a huge ball of fluff. The miller issue has already been argued to death, and everyone except Zephirdd agrees that millers should claim during D1. The second section consists of him arguing that it's dumb to tunnel players (marv in particular). In the end of it he says "Remember we have 48 hours, half that time hasn't even passed yet so I don't like the band wagoning on Marv so quickly." which initially makes him appear pro-town, but in reality it's just bullshit. What do you mean with the band-wagoning on marv going quickly? He just had 3 votes on him by the time you were writing this (2 now) and the only guys who seems very intent on lynching him is VE and Probulous (risk's vote looked more like a pressure vote). I mainly see scum posting unnecessary advice like this where they encourage everyone to be calm and collected when voting and not to rush things, especially when there isn't even any real bandwagoning going on.

I agree, this post is very scummy. Also notice how the general feeling of the second paragraph is that we should back off marv a bit so that we can get some better reads and not waste the entire 48 hours, but then the third paragraph is him coming right back to marv and pushing him? Now, granted he does appear to be trying to ask more "nicely", but why not try focusing on someone else if you feel too much time is being wasted on marv?

Pre-Edit: Noticed rastaban has posted a "case" on risk.nuke after slOosh also commented on his post. I really don't like rastaban's case as it is quite exaggerated. It feels to me as it was a quick case he made as he noticed he was getting flak for not commenting on anyone besides marv. risk.nuke's actions have been quite clear as marv and shraft explained here: [click]

EBWOP: @Snarfs
What do you mean with when you say that MrZentor tried to correct his errors in the recent WBG mini mafia? Did he play even worse before that? In EMM he only posted one-liners, and he could have been either scum or town; it was impossible to read him.

Well, in WoF he self-voted at least twice and basically actively tried to get himself lynched as a townie. From there the only way is up.

Pretty much this. Unfortunately, being mafia in the last game I had a bit of a biased perspective of Zentor and naturally couldn't help but try to justify his actions from a town point of view. I didn't like how Artanis's reasoning for thinking he was town was that he wasn't trying to act townie (basically implying that all scum try to blend in) since if Zentor knows that, he can just act like he doesn't give a crap as scum. Unfortunately, I think he does know this and probably plays very similar as both town and scum because of it. I'd be absolutely okay with Zentor lynch, as I'm starting to see prplhz's point about him being perpetually null. He'll probably refuse to show any analysis unless absolutely pushed to do it and I'm pretty certain scum won't kill him for us.


I don't think we should lynch marv today. He's been attacked the entire day and hasn't had a chance to do anything but react to other people's pressure.


People I'd be fine lynching today, at this point: rastaban, MrZentor. I think rastaban is more likely scum so that's where my vote is going.
##Vote rastaban


Why MrZentor and not risk.nuke given they both have a similar playstyle?
Because, MrZentor has shown in the past, that as town he is capable of actually making towny posts, yet refused to do so his last town game which looked very similar to his most recent scum game: [towny post]
risk.nuke is risk.nuke.


Also, I'm still waiting for Mattchew to come back and explain this:

Mattchew, you claim that you had hoped that marv would write down some things that he does as mafia so that you can hold him accountable, yet it just appears as though the most likely thing that will happen is, if marv is scum, he will become more cognisant of his flaws as mafia and be more likely to attempt to avoid them. It seems like you didn't fully think that question through.

'sup
for reference rastaban's case on Cephiro on BangBang2 => http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=340480&currentpage=39#778

It feels very different from his case on risk.nuke here imo. In particular, the timing and amount of fluff in it.

Wow, really surprised no one sees the vote switching without any reason at all not scummy. My case is misconstrued as "risk.nuke has not yet posted anything of value." That would be a case against

Also I never saw Sloosh's post as it took me far longer than 30 minutes to work up a case against risk. You know why ,because I don't throw accusations around wildly until I have convinced myself.

Last game as a doctor I had no gun and so I had to mafia reads and a town read but since it was my first game in a year and I was afraid that without a gun if I pushed too hard they would want me to shoot and out my role. Well no one seemed to care about my cases but me but in the end I was correct.

Day 1 of Bang Bang I posted this: "Meapak_Ziphh, your filter looked really bad last night tons of filler and no posts contributing to discussion, but you seem to be posting more like your normal self today. Mind explaining what was going on?" I actually had an entire case typed up like I just did for risk and yet I decided to go easy and let him slide, well guess what he was GF. If I had pushed for him like I thought I should have day 1 we might have outed GF immediately.

This game I am trying something different since I don't worry about having a gun, I am going to push my scum reads and try and save my town reads. If I get lynched for that, at least town gets a trail votes to follow that led up to it.

Sorry but this is so similar to bang bang's Gonzaw fiasco where everyone clamored about him being red while I thought the case against him was awful, he gets shot flips blue and since it was almost all townies pushing the lynch we started the next day clueless as to where to begin which is why I had to post the Cephiro case linked above to begin with. So yeah, I stand by thinking risk is our best candidate and want him lynched. I am putting forward someone who is actually scummy instead of the marv case where half of it is based on his reaction to a leading question.

Why risk.nuke and not MrZentor? Can you demonstrate the differences you see which makes risk.nuke the more likely scum, in your opinion? Because I feel they have played a similar game up until now.

When I review MrZentor I see someone who hasn't contributed much, which, while scummy, isn't enough to lynch yet in my opinion.,Especially when he commits to delivering something tomorrow. I have seen players like Foolishness say the same thing so I am inclined to give him till tomorrow before I make my Judgment on him.

I feel like Nuke hasn't just been a null, like MrZentor, by not contributing, but that his actions further scum agendas. There are legitimate reasons a town player may not contribute day 1, but I can't find legitimate town reasons for Risks actions.

His "lol, ok #1 scum response ##Vote: marvellosity" Seems like such a cop out to get a vote on marv, instead of finding for a reason himself or even investigating it. It is the combination of not contributing but still trying to push a lynch that I find very questionable and seperated him from MrZ.

What does town gain by him voting Klaust later, but not mentioning why he is doing it? The huge time gap, is so strange as well. I can see not being caught up and posting a quick one liner, but to be aware enough that one of the players still needs to post, to take your vote off someone you said was scummy, and yet not take even a moment to say something seems strange to me.

I would like to hear from him on these actions and why he did it, maybe I am missing something but I feel that his actions make him extremely suspicious.
