A quick case on Release - I find his current gameplay very different from his typical town-aligned gameplay, which is well established from three newbie mafia games:
Newbie Mafia XIV
Newbie Mafia XVI
Newbie Mafia XVIII
I'll give a brief overview of his playstyle in each game. I also highly recommend skimming through his past games to get a feel for his posting - it doesn't take much reading to realize how different he is as a townie. (all underlined words are hyperlinks for referencing).
Newbie Mafia XIV
On page 1 of his filter, you'll notice long posts that take clear stances on players early in the game. He never appears wishy-washy or unsure of himself. THIS POST sums up this game's town-alligned Release very well - forceful, looking to pick confrontations, and actively builds cases (even if this particular case was against the town doctor xD). I had a ton of time in this game. Not nearly as much in this game
Newbie Mafia XVI
Release doesn't build any large cases in the early parts of this game, but is very forceful about his opinions. He locks on to one player (Grush) early on in the game and grills him relentlessly. However, he's very willing to change his vote multiple times at a whim. He's extremely reckless and not afraid to forcefully point fingers/generate discussion. Look at THIS POST for another example of forceful townie Release. again, a ton more time. So doesn't compare too well
Newbie Mafia XVIII
Release gets killed by Mafia N1 here, so there's not much to go on. Do note that his tone is forceful throughout his filter, he never summaryposts, and never tries to out several people in a single post. His post count/activity here is much lower due to a busy schedule, something he mentions after death. one, i mentioned that before the game, and two, i was sheeping BioSC a little before i turned on him (without posting unfortunately). three, that game was so inactive that reading hardly took my time and i had spare time to re-read and whatnot
Release Townie Meta Summary
- Release always accuses 1 player at a time. He locks on to someone and grills them forcefully, actively seeking confrontation. He'll switch votes at whim if he sees other suspicious behavior. sounds like bait to do something which you could later call wishy-washy. Lose-lose situation for me huh? Same thing you did to jingle. "does your wife know you're cheating on here?"
- Release rarely, if ever, attacks cases on players he's not pursuing. Release really locks on to his cases and tries to build it. it's called tunneling and it almost got someone (ha236) to give up when i actually thought he was town. I have been advised not to overdo this many times
- Release is always at the center of the controversy. when i have the time
- Release is not afraid to defend himself against accusations. when i have the time
Release Day 1 Lynch
Release in this current game has been very different. Just take a look at some of these quotes:
One thing that I really fucked up in my case against JingleHell was not looking for Mafia motive. I had evidence of scummy play, but did not have a story and mafia-motive behind actions and behaviors. I will be clearly identifying motives in this analysis
First, Release calls JingleHell's post suspicious after defending him against Lazer in his previous post. In addition, he doesn't take any forceful opinions. Note he doesn't accuse Jingle ("This is kind of interesting"), and takes a very unclear stance on TMG26. Townie Release would have been throwing around votes based on past meta. Release is trying to spread suspicion against multiple players while pushing a bad case against LazerMonkey. The push in itself isn't bad, but spreading suspicions is pro-mafia. i have never, ever, used meta as a means of supporting my votes. also, it's called fuck TMG, we have bigger problems to deal with. But saying it like that gives me the "fuck the town" attitude because people were seriously considering TMG. I didn't accuse Jingle because as you can clearly see in my second paragraph, i still think Lazer is the far more scummy player
Next, Release acknowledges my case on hopeless as "fairly good," then continues his vote for LazerMonkey for unclear reasons. This is consistent with a Release who wants to put himself in good standing with the author of a case against fellow mafia, but instead tries to push a townie lynch. Release is keeping his options open and remaining unclear - a mafia trait. unclear? Deceitful. Aka the first post and the bringing up of sex toys as a legitimate reason of scumminess. i repeated that quite a few times actually. And i acknolwedged your case. Your case against hope had nothing to do with my case against Lazer.
Release's post just before the D1 lynch. Pre-lynch panic, combined with outing THREE players in one post for unclear reasons. This is wildly inconsistent with Townie Jingle, and it is in mafia's best interest to spread baseless suspicion.
because everyone is going to take my post seriously. Lazer for obvious reasons. Jingle and Harry for their "OMGUS that was actually serious" and subsequent reconciliation. I thought this was too pretentious to be townie.
When its clear that Hopeless is going to hang, Release covers his bases before the D1 mod post. Note that he acknowledges a legitimate suspicion against Hopeless, yet does not change his vote. He also outs 3 players in this post again. Why should i change my vote? He is going to hang. In fact, leaving the opportunity for someone to jump of the Hope train means that we have caught 2 scum. It's something i did in another game too: i was in the majority, i jumped off and put a random vote, begging for someone to do a last minute switch. You didn't read that in your "meta analysis" did you? and i out 3 players. Just that it was 3 different players. I already outed 2 of them now didn't I
Release: Night 1
You're going to see Release make a huge gear-switch after Hopeless1der gets lynched. He tries to further justify his suspicions against LazerMonkey for vague reasons (and ignores me the MULTIPLE TIMES I call him out for it). Instead, he tries to establish a friendly rapport with the town, while pointing fingers and generally not doing anything.
Release first addresses why he voted for Lazer. Look at the complete lack of reasoning. In my counter argument, I proved all of these false. i read your counter arguement, didn't agree with it. simple.
Despite still having HEAVY suspicions of Lazer, Release agrees with my case on Jingle then promptly outs YourHarry and Mackin for scummy behavior. His reasons are vague, unclear, and this is not the forceful Release in his townie meta. Release is trying to stirr up suspicions and create unrest. he had a "fuck town attitude" everyone saw it. Already said your harry twice now. Your using this as reasoning against me is seriously shit. Mackin was lurker. Telling him to speak up. You make it sound like i have outed 9 people, when in reality, it's 5. Sounds bad but hardly as bad as 9.
Release outs two MORE players in his next post. unless i'm mistaken, that quote belongs to jingle. So ONE more player. you say 11, i say 6. this is fun
Release has a sudden change of heart against Lazer and jumps on the Jingle bandwagon (before Evul claimed DT and verified Jingle as townie). Release finds a better angle and jumps on the mislynch in an attempt to avoid suspicion and at this point, i suspected that you were the godfather trying to buss jingle. Imagine my surprise when khorrus got modkilled. Good on fighting? Hapa has been the GODFATHER
Summaryposting in an attempt to gain rapport with the town. I was getting clarification for who was actually being suspected.
Sudden voteswitch to lazer for a single line after N1. This is an effort to create further confusion, knowing that JingleHell is on pace to be lynched. i wanted to get clarification. a vote is the best way to do it
Release spends the rest of the night (and the opening of D2) posting summary and one-liners. yeah cause i'm bus. believe it if you want. Disregard it otherwise. And that "obvious" slip about jiexian, i just used your reasoning against you and poof, no more. And how about you: I'm sure you read my first game with mordanis no? YOu make this huge ass case on me, highlight mafi-orientated in red and refuse to vote me. In other words, testing the waters. You only voted me upon when prompted to. This is exactly how mordanis (scum) played against me in the other game.
In conclusion, Release's behavior this game is very different from his Town-alligned meta in a mafia-oriented way. Furthermore, clear and logical mafia motivations can be derived from all of his actions.
clear and logical mafia motivation can be derived from almost any actions. I've done that many times. People don't doubt you because you were so "good" in your analysis against hope, who helped you tons.
I highly suspect Release to be Mafia.

Response in red at start but i change to italic for easier to read.
Since my vote is already on you: fos: hapa
And just so we're clear, you claimed that i cast suspicion on 11 people. I cast it on 6 people. A real townie doesn't try to be so manipulative.
