vonKlaust: in your own words, why should we lynch MrZentor?
He's not contributing at all while accusing Prpl for not contributing. He said he don't think that Marv is mafia, and then he voted for Marv.

EBWOP: Voted for Marv without really saying why we should do it.

rastaban made a terribly cautious first post and a quite bad case, and I think that the chance of him flipping scum is higher than Zentor's. Zentor is just playing his usual bad play with lots of one-liners, just like he did in Emergency Mini Mafia. Contrast this to how he played in Death Factory Mafia 2 where he writes long, fluffy, useless posts. I think there's a larger chance that Zentor is town in this game than that he is mafia. He is a lot more careful when he plays mafia.
For today's lynch I suggest rastaban. His cautious first post is scummy, and his case on risk.nuke is scummy as well. ##Vote rastaban

VE, I need to put my mind at rest.
Other than LI, could you please tell me a couple of scum games you've played recently?

rastaban sounds like town with bad cases.
Zentor sounds trollish and uninterested, usually a signal of a VT(because VT is indeed an uninteresting role) or a scum(with the intention of creating confusion in the thread and wasting discussion).
IMO, Zentor sounds like a good day 1 lynch atm. ##Vote MrZentor

no idea what AtE means, but i was out of line there, so sorry about that comment

Appeal to Emotion. sorry I thought it was a common concept.
I used that versus redFF on Sleeper Cell II. Basically you try to use emotion to demoralize someone or to sound like you are innocent. Saying I can't even play the game because I "don't have pulse on psychology and emotion" is appealing to emotion.
In fact, the more I read that post, the more I think that is a scum trying to deviate from my initial thought - that you and VE were bussing eachother. VE's response wasn't good either.
You know what a good response would be? A sarcastic one. A joke. Certainly not going "is that all you've got?" or "omg you suck".

Because when I looked at Bang Bang I didn't really see any similarities with his play in this game. At least no similarities that you wouldn't expect from the same player regardless of alignment, anyway. How did you go from thinking that rastaban was your best scum read to thinking that he is town? All you said was this:

Something in the back of my mind is still clicking everytime I read Snarfs. Can you cool cats reread his last post and tell me your thoughts? It would be great to get some discussion particularly from marv, prplhz and risk.nuke.
And as for now here will be my preliminary vote to hold me accountable. ##Vote: Snarfs All I read from his last post is "there is no difference between Zentor and risk.nuke". The only way this would be a scum tell if risk was scum. idk, snarfs looks null to me. Well, the most glaring scum tell so far(for me) is rastaban, but if you think about it he's just playing as his town meta(based on bang bang) and all he's done is a bad case, not a scummy case. Since he is "the most glaring scum tell so far" for you, you must've surely seen some clear signs pointing toward him being town when you read Bang Bang Mafia for you to believe that he is town.

No, I'm just arrogant and sarcastic.
But it's not the case.

No ... I'm not liking this at all. Shraft brings up a good point about MrZentor's meta, which adds to my belief that he is townish. I think the rastaban choice is a better case here. Even though his last posts says he posted his thoughts on MrZentor, there is nothing in his filter that really indicates his thoughts. His posts are padded with fluff. His vote switch seems unnatural.
##Unvote: MrZentor ##Vote: rastaban

Okay deadline in 3 hours I thought it was in like ~7 hours.
What are you doing slOosh?

Yea I really think rastaban has a higher chance of flipping mafia than MrZentor.

Had a look through Zentor's filter. His vote on me was the first time he mentioned me at all (other than the general 'how intense' comment), and worse it was in response to Zephirdd's comment about scum bussing. 'One of them has to die' - why? no reasoning.
I first got my anti-town read on Zentor in Bang Bang when he mysteriously lumped Toad into his list of scumreads without having previously mentioned him, because other people had done so. So pretty satisfied with where my vote is right now. I disagree about risk, he defended himself but didn't actually contribute yet. However I doubt I am going to get enough people to vote for him today. The reason I wanted to wait on on mr.Z untill tomorrow was because he stayed in, even after subbing out. now it isn't deffinate by any leas but it increases the likelyhood he got a blue or red role. I didn't mention this earlier because if he wasn't scum then it increased his chance of getting hit tonight. However I think his vote on marv after claiming both were probably town is pretty incriminating. He isn't doing what he said he would do - hold him accountable. He pushes risk saying that he is scummy, yet waits for risk to defend himself. When he does, all he doesn't comment on whether the defense is valid or not, but dismisses the whole thing and says risk still hasn't contributed. How is that pushing scum reads? He clearly still has one, but isn't pushing it. He is merely going with the flow and sentiment of town.
Compare his play here to his play in Bang Bang, in which he is confident in what he says and isn't afraid to put out his thoughts. In this game there is more fluff and more references to games that don't really prove anything. Moreso, suspicions of him have been ignored several times, which indicates resistance.
Vote rastaban.

I think rastaban has a higher chance to flip scum. Therefore I will vote him and try convincing everyone else to do it too. MrZentor is playing like junk, but I still think rastaban is scummier.

There are people who I'd rather see dead *cough*Prplhz*cough*, but Rastaban isn't a bad choice.
##Unvote: Marvellosity ##Vote: Rastaban

Honestly I'm fine with both Zentor and Rastaban (Klaus aswell and maybe zephirdd), I'm feeling I prefer rastaban but I don't care enough to sway people one way or the other. Aslong as we have majority on one,

Guess what there is more than 1 mafia in this game o.O surprising huh. I still want risk lynched, but do you really think 6 other people are going to do that in the next few hours? No, because everyone seemed to want to discuss me instead of my case. And this game if we don't get 7 votes on someone then it is a no lynch which is very bad for town. Also if I stay on risk it doesn't say anything about my alignment if I am the only one. I think Zentor is currently the second scummiet player after risk. As I mentioned earlier his voting for someone who he thought wasn't scum pushed me from being neutral on him to him being likely scum. I felt his play only fit a red or blue player, I don't think he is blue now so red is most likely.
Also staying on risk is the safe move it means regardless of the lynch results I am not responsible For the outcome.

risk do you think that scum only lurk? Because you're really only pushing people who aren't likely to push back. :/
Marv do your own meta research.
I'm also feeling strange about the ease of this lynch. I also don't want to lynch Zentor. Can we lynch either risk or prpl? maybe Marv?

Okay I wanted to write a case on Zephirdd last night but then I really had to sleep and I've been busy today but here we go.
On June 22 2012 08:41 Zephirdd wrote: 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. This is the post in question. People have already said that this is a bad plan and I agree with that. My problem isn't that he's suggesting a bad plan. it's that I think it comes from a scum perspective.
Scum are much more likely to suggest plans that they think are bad for them. For scum, it doesn't really matter if millers claim or not but what Zephirdd focuses on is how it will make them confirmed green and not blue. Zephirdd thinks that that will narrow down the pool of potential blues that scum can shoot which will be a plus for scum. Townies would never focus on this because they don't really care about blues, they care about analysis and avoiding chaos and that's what miller claims will help them avoid.
This is really the crux of my case but I'm going to write some more that might convince other people too.
First Zephirdd is pretty suspicious about rastaban. Worst case ever into doesn't feel like your other games. He never does anything. Next he has an epiphany that VisceraEyes and marvellosity are scum and again he doesn't do anything about it. No vote, no push, no anything. He looks pretty convinced from what he is saying but he's not acting on it. In the end he jumps on the zentor wagon as the 9th voter, an ultra safe vote based off of two lines of analysis that has already been made several times by other people.
What you guys think about this?
