BH and Zealos are the guys I've been most sure of being scum this game. The last quote especially just seems to be a vague statement about how he thinks he is being pro town. He has never come up with his own argument for anyone being scum. He is very keen to stress how I should be getting lynched. Why would a mafia player want to make sure I am lynched above anyone else. Because he doesn't know the rest of his team. He can't risk calling anyone else out in case they flip red. Yes, I hear you say that he wouldn't know whether I am mafia or not, however, the worst that can happen by killing me is if I turn out to be a minion that everyone already thought was mafia anyway. He's basically trying to hide away from making any real reads or cases by just running with the "These guys are clearly confirmed scum so we should just ignore everything else" On July 25 2012 02:21 HiroPro wrote:On July 25 2012 02:18 supersoft wrote: We are not lynching Zealos tomorrow.

How is what you are doing different from what hiro is doing? Also, any reason why you doctored Sandroba's message when you posted it? Because I'm lurking. He's actively trying /not/ to lurk, while still being useless. And yes, obviously, in case he had any other reason to send me another message.

Ok now you are just twisting everything to make me look like scum, just because the role I received doesn't seem like a Ver / Incog thing to do, and apparently explaining myself was a scummy thing to do. I want to lynch him because he looks like scum. Did you lynch Palmar because Foolishness wanted to lynch him? What's with the loaded question?

I see you did post some thoughts of your own about him, but you would think palmar/foolishness flipping mafia and pushing the lynch would make you reconsider a bit. I don't particularly like the post where you commented on Foolishness' case as it had too many strange clarifications and you even said that you had started ignoring him, just like in a previous game where he flipped mafia...

Oki doki, here are my thoughts (so you can hold me accountable, VE )
Meapak_Ziph: Yeah, there's a high likelihood he's scum. syllogism pre-empted what I was going to say about him a couple of pages ago:
+ Show Spoiler +On July 25 2012 02:51 syllogism wrote:Show nested quote +On July 25 2012 02:21 HiroPro wrote:On July 25 2012 02:18 supersoft wrote: We are not lynching Zealos tomorrow. We lynch Meapak Explain the case to me then please. He has been very passive and his behavior near day 1 lynch deadline was quite suspicious. First he wanted to switch from BH to Gonzaw because mattchew's vote was "stuck" on gonzaw. He also stated that he was fine with lynching either BH or Gonzaw and cites Sandroba's support being one of his reasons for support gonzaw lynch. However, after the no-lynch he started the blame game in a very noncommittal manner, vaguely alluding to people responsible for the gonzaw wagon when BH and austin wagons were "well established". Now, who is responsible for Gonzaw wagon? Sandroba and Probulous, the former who is considered nearly confirmed town by this point! He also says people who "threw their vote away" are also under scrutiny, but they certainly didn't come under any scrutiny from Mr. Meapak. It's also worth nothing that Meapak hadn't voted at all until he showed up 45 minutes before the lynch when BH wagon was the dominant one. He had to vote, so he pretty much had no choice but to vote BH at the time. It doesn't get much more passive than this: Show nested quote +On July 20 2012 04:06 Meapak_Ziphh wrote:On July 20 2012 04:01 HiroPro wrote: MZ, you think Zealos is scum? I do actually. He came in, was under some pressure, and then promptly checked out once he was safe. To me that's always extremely scummy. If you were a serious lynch target you had better work your ass off to give town reason to keep you around next time. Zealos hasn't done that. Show nested quote +On July 20 2012 04:07 Meapak_Ziphh wrote:On July 20 2012 04:02 Blazinghand wrote: I think Zealos is scum! The literal non-thread-reading and utter garbage that tries to look town but isn't makes him like my #1 scumread. Well that's nice to know, I'd appreciate if you wrote out a case. You're lucky to not be dying today so I think you should make some serious contributions to give people reasons to rethink their position on you. At the time Meapak is still sure that BH is mafia (though for some reason he writes a case on Rastaban instaed), but right after saying he thinks Zealos is mafia he weakly asks BH to write a case on Zealos. Now he, just like Palmar was, is barely posting and doesn't seem to care at all.
Passivity is the name of the game. I have two recent memories of Meapak playing town, that is Liar mafia and LV. In Liar Mafia Meapak was a central figure, being a part of the meapak/gonzaw/ET town circle. More pertinently, in LV he believed he had found scum in VisceraEyes, and what did he do? He made a big case and then relentlessly pushed VE until he got his lynch. We have none of this here. Here he has 'found scum' in rastaban and makes a case. Except he never pushes anyone to lynch rastaban, even though he pops up on occasion to go "yeah rastaban is still scum" and the like. Meapak is uninvested and scum.
Zealos - he is scum. Again he is uninvested in the game. He doctored sandroba's message to him in addition to not bringing it to the thread originally (I'm aware Kurumi flipped town, but it is definitely anti-town...). layabout brought up how Zealos played in Bang Bang. A decent filter comparison because he replaced into both games. It seems clear to me that Zealos was much more interested and invested in the course of that game (even if he did make questionable decisions). He was quite active and at least looking for some truth. Here his filter is defending himself poorly and very little else. What is Zealos trying to do? Also the case on Hiro is bad and smells of him making an effort because he feels he finally needs to.
rastaban - not quite as sure with rastaban as I am with the two above, but I think he will flip scum. Earlier in the game, MZ's case was an accurate summation of rastaban's play. He was going wherever the lynch was easiest, taking the path of least resistance. Since the time of his case, he's pinged the other way in what reads to me as an artificial attempt at pushing new/interesting ideas.
He magics a townread on Kurumi on the basis that Kurumi /outs a different game, and when the sentiment was anti-Foolish he buddies up to him
On July 22 2012 04:57 rastaban wrote: I was snooping through some of the experienced players filters Syllogism is town it is pretty obvious Foolishness I'm sorry I doubted you for a bit. I forgot last game we played together mafia's ploy was to get you lynched. I am convinced your town now so let's work together. You are posting just like you did then with distant for poor town play an focusing on finding scum. I like it!
Not sure on ggq yet, time for more research! Chezinu and sandroba are obviously town. BM is so different from himself he must be scum.
Just the tone of how it's written feels fake. "Look! I'm being different! yay!" He also makes a bizarre case on layabout on the basis of wbg's nightkill. It was an entire case built on some wifom and fundamentally he seems to be thinking in a different way than I'd expect a townie to.
Other bits and bobs: gonzaw: I seem to have a townread on him now having looked through his filter. His posts read as genuine and earnest to me. He's had a couple of dodgy reads which I'd love to say constituted an agenda, but he never pushed the misdirection of them, so I'm not seeing it. On Katina: her filter is interesting. My question to her some pages back re:syllogism was the question mark I took out of reading her filter earlier. I'm not quite sure how she can have a null read on syllo at the moment, syllo is too prominent for this to be the case. Some of it read quite decently though with her belief of BH/Palmar being scum. Basically I'm saying I'm on the fence with her atm.

Yes, but rest assured neither of them thought he was mafia

quoted too much, just meant to cut off at the BH/Palmar bit.
also Marv

Of course it means something. Just because mafia do not know who the other mafia are does not mean they want to actually lynch mafia if they can get away with it. Pushing to lynch mafia every day isn't a very sound strategy for a mafia victory.

What's her goal in bringing him up early and then not talking about him for a couple of posts?

On July 25 2012 07:00 marvellosity wrote: What's her goal in bringing him up early and then not talking about him for a couple of posts? well day 1 and day 2, there was no chance of a palmar lynch (especially when she made the case)...
He was supposed to be her strongest read right, wouldn't she be immediately pushing him on day 3 if this was the case?

If she were scum and wanted to be consistent she'd just keep at it. She's generally come across as fairly pragmatic but she hasn't really made particularly bad shouts (other than that 1 post where she implied bugs/sand/etc were scum).
Again what is a scum Katina pushing at in these circumstances?

If Katina is scum and was not in connection with Palmar, there is an extremely low chance of Palmar being scum.
lets say katina is an exec, and Palmar is not her minion (50/50), one would assume that if Palmar was scum, he'd be the other exec, but thats only 1 person out of a list of like 7 or 8 vets in the game.
lets say katina is a minion, palmar is not her exec so that leaves the same situation as found above.
I think the consensus of the thread and everyone in general was that if Palmar were to flip scum, he'd be an exec. This means that if Katina did not know his role she would be actually playing it pretty safe thinking Palmar was town due to the numbers alone

What do you mean I've just been floating under the radar.
I've not been playing irc mafia and got 20+page filter. I'm also am aware that I haven't really made cases but not because of lack of wanting to. I just haven't been able to motivate myself into doing it when people are already voicing their suspicion against my targets. If I don't need to convince them i don't need to make a case. And not making cases is not the same as not having reads.
