I don't know, it doesn't sound like something scum would do either. I agree with Sandro, we need to focus on the senior management.

Well we will have to deal with kurumi eventually and since he is known scum it makes sense to kill him off now, because at least it is something everybody can agree and vote on. After we are free of certain scum I suggest we kill Foolishness and Palmar since they are my best guess for executives right now. Of course if they can prove they have a role I'll shift my focus off them.

I have a very low opinion of town Zealos and that i something i think he could do if e hadn't been reading the thread. What you said he did was not accurate and this play from Zealos reminds me very much of how he acted at the end of Bang Bang mafia 2.

Zealos said that he would vote for Blazinghand and not come back for the rest of the day. If he is town and he cares then he will come back and try to be productive there is nothing to stop him doing this as mafia but if he doesn't do it he is probably mafia and we should lynch him.

Why would a townie essentially make up a reason. Bear in mind that Zealos has show that he has no desire to come up with good reasons when scum (in MTG when I was mafia teammates with him, he argued that he had zero scum reads d1 and so he just voted for his least townie person. he then proceeded to lurk until halfway through night 1 and then appeared with a case on zelblade who was basically just a lurker based entirely on evidence that would have been available to him when he made his d1 vote.)

I have had my vote stolen for the entire cycle.

Also I really don't like the idea of not killing kurumi today. The last thing we need to do is give up an easy scum kill.

OK, we kill Kurumi.

##Vote: Kurumi

If we can only kill one person at a time during both day and night then can we speed up this particular day? Everyone will be voting Kurumi and if the whole 48hrs is used people are just going to AFK.

By the way, I gave up after that sandroba gambit. I got really angry that I was trying to have some fun and it backfired on me. I knew I was as good as dead. The effects of my anger? Well, we're on page 82. Pretty much that. Then the RoL nuke came in, but I did not care. The no-lynch was bad thinking about it now, but not that bad when we were before the nightpost. There was a chance that we'd lose 3 towns (Me, RoL and lynch target) but sadly only RoL died and he flipped town. If there was better time to get organized, this is it. Today, scum get third batch of messages. That means CEO can proceed with High Ranks, while they make sure their minions know what to do. We got some role reversal here. Anyway, I guess I'll need to get through that garbage I did and actually do something.
I did not believe I would survive Day 1.

Ok, I read his filter. I was too lazy to read the thread going on at the same time. I think your opinion of his town play is a little low - while he's certainly not what I would call very helpful and the shot seemed bad (I can't judge that well), he seems to have more involvement in the thread - and he did identify Zentor as scum correctly...

It doesn't matter if your vote was stolen, just vote.

Why would we give up an easy kill? It will narrow down the scum count, that's what we need to win as town. If Kurumi doesn't die people are just going to derp around and be unfocused because he IS still alive. With him dead that's one less distraction and we can focus on the other scum such as:

Mattchew
Foolishness
Palmar
Blazinghand

Bill Murray!

Think to yourself: is Bill Murray actually Bill Murray this game? It's an easy enough question to answer: no. Because he is mafia. The items that characterize Bill Murray's usual town play are absent from this game. Consequently, it is easy to see that this game matches his mafia behavior.

The running joke on the forum about Bill Murray's alignment is that the more chaos he causes the more likely he is to be town. This has been seen over time as in the far past the games he broke the rules in he was usually town. Even today it is true, he is just much more mature about his posts.

Simply put: Bill Murray is much more spammy in games where he is town. This should make sense; everyone in this game has played with Bill Murray as far as I can see. Recently in Holy Roman where Bill Murray was town, he busted out four pages of posts within the first day alone. In two games where Bill Murray is mafia, Mafia LIII and Mafia LVI, by the end of day 1 he had less than two pages worth of posts (LVI he had about 1, LIII had about 1.5). How many pages of posts does Bill Murray have this game at the end of day 1? Less than 1 page, and closer to half a page than a page.

This may seem a bit out there, but it's certainly significant. When Bill Murray is town he posts twice as much as he does when he's mafia. That's a very noticable difference, especially for Bill Murray who can be very spammy. You shouldn't even have to check his filter to know that he had less than 1 page in his filter by the end of day 1. I know there was a point day 1 where someone made a post like, "wtf Bill Murray is in this game?". Bill Murray loves to ride the inactive train to mafia victory.

Before we do some more comparison to other games, take a look at what Bill Murray has accomplished this game. Needless to say he has been all over the place. This is not uncommon of Bill Murray nor does it strongly indicate his alignment. But his best post this game is probably the one he made against me:

Actually, his whole filter is quite devoid of any content other than his laughable case against me. Someone shoot him tonight, thanks.

I completely agree. Came back to see some more filters, saw this post, had to reply.
I feel this is against Foolishness's meta... hence him being my #1 suspect. His wall posting has been lacking, and I feel like he has been trying to push from the background without committing because he is a lower level minion that doesn't want to lynch someone up the chain.

I also dislike him attacking people for wasted votes, when his was useless. Hypocritical.
He did voice his opinion, but did nothing about it... even worse than holding it in, because it is information without action.

The issue here isn't about what's being said but about when it was said. He is essentially just restating arguments that were already laid out in full by wherebugsgo, syllogism, and sandroba. Bill Murray came late to the game. Has he provided something to the town that's genuine and fresh? No. He waits to see what the town thinks before trying to weigh in a contribution.

But that aside what other posts has Bill Murray made that are of interest this game? One of my favorites is:

We all know apathy is a trait many mafia possess.

Outside of that, it was interesting to watch him go from wanting to kill Chezinu without a second thought:

I will be the first to tell you that Mattchew voting me, or wanting to nuke me, is a complete nulltell, and is only a result of his stupidity.

However, Chezinu is reading as town to me.

Outside of all this there's nothing you can say about him. He's done nothing. He said gonzaw was making excuses but never said anything more. He's made a troll post or two. He's defended himself in the typical Bill Murray style (which he does both as town and mafia). He has not helped the town nor has he made any real effort other than jumping the bandwagon on myself.

What's missing from his filter that should be there? Bill Murray when he is town always tries to help in one way or another. The typical way is by calling people out on their bullshit, Bill Murray style. But that hasn't happened this game. In games where he is town Bill Murray always makes long posts in between his one liners and ever-increasing troll posts. For example take this post from Holy Roman mafia (he was town). I spoilered it cause it's long:

Your play is structured and logical AS BOTH SIDES, meaning you're not an easy read for people who are logical, with no sense like me. I have sense, whereas people like Hassy don't.

They can't read you
I can

I know you are town
but i know you are really fucking confused right now because you're in a position to lead, and you don't know what to do.
You got backed into this when you claimed, so take it.

To say my posts are all over the place as town is probably true, but you're admitting that I'm posting all over the place right now, which contradicts what you said about me not being transparent. You seem to admit this by saying I have good reads in my wall.

1 question for you: Who is more likely to go back on their own reads in the same post, town or scum?


I'd also like to apologize. I am sorry I called you a bitch, Hassy. It's 7:47 comin outta the sky, gonna take me down to memphis for a midnight ride we gonna move playin in a travellin band

yeah

WWHOOOOOOHOHHOHOO


This is what I mean with you being completely confusing as both town and scum. You make quite a decent point and then draw completely wrong conclusions from it.

1. Your wall post is decent because it reveals a lot of information about you (not necessarily about the people you are posting about). It's quite a townie thing to do. However, you continuously obfuscate townie moves by posting random stuff. This makes you exceptionally bad as an emperor/empress, as I don't want to be second-guessing you all the time.

2. Changing opinion often is something I am FAR more likely to do as town than scum. Mainly because as scum I already KNOW who is scum and don't need to second-guess myself. I can pick some random townies and start building up bogus cases on them. I don't need to change opinion unless someone "convinces" me. However, as town, I don't know who is scum and who is town and will be far more inclined to try to look at things from both sides and find reasons for actions in either a scum, or a town motivation, without being biased either way. As scum, I can be completely free to nail someone to the cross with a case painting out all the little slips they made during the game. As town, I must always be aware that someone playing scummy might still be a delusional town.

3. Posting all over the place doesn't make you transparent if you do it regardless of alignment. The only thing that can be said in its favour is that by posting a LOT, you give a LOT to analyze. However, the longer a game goes on, the less I enjoy going through giant filters.

I'm going to man up on this one, because I honestly feel I need to
1) you are misguided town
2) you are in a position of power
therefore
you are misguided town in a position of power
therefore
you can fuck us over with an indecision... or hurt us... and oh, baby, don't hurt me
don't hurt me,
no more.

when you said "Your wall post is decent because it reveals a lot of information about you ", how does it do that?

You said that it doesn't reveal information about who I'm posting about, but you contradict that later when you say you agree with my scumhunting and reads

You say "As town, I must always be aware that someone playing scummy might still be a delusional town.", which is true, but it can work both ways. Someone who is not only acting pro-town, but acting pro-town as town, can be delusional town.

look at yourself

you're "all over the place" even in this one post, whereas I have not contradicted myself once in terms of how I feel about things. What people do, in terms of their actions, speak louder than their words.

Acrofales, I expected you to write me off as town due to my effort, but your obtuseness, your parroting of my point earlier, and your inability to address that has me questioning having sent your name in as emperor, and you being town. I'm honestly regretting it right now, and I should have gone with my first instinct. I'd have rather voted for that annoying cube than you right now.

Pfft, most of the post-game was emo QQ about the setup. People calling Sandro a cheater, people calling DrH a bad host and people generally being nasty to eachother. If you think the reason I got shot was in any way memorable in the crap that was the post-game analysis you're nuts. All I remember is telling Sandro and MrZentor who I was going to bomb. Neither of those were scum. The only other person to know I even had an item should have been Chaoser, who was also not scum. Of course, Sandro shared quite a bit of info with Bugs, so that could've been info that slipped. Of course, I was very near to bombing Coag, which would've gotten a scum blown up.


Ontopic: fine, I am perfectly happy to retract that statement. Scum has always had a good reason to shoot me (early in the game). I believe I am currently giving them another good reason to shoot me by being active and trying to get other people to post actively and stop trolling (I believe that a good number of us are doing that now, so yay). I believe I will be a good emperor and will lead town to victory.

Ok, why does scum have a good reason to shoot you? Because you were the only person making wall posts?
You said yourself you're active as both town and scum... how, then, does that confirm you at all? hint: it doesn't

Why Jitsu? Care to tell us?


From the way it's worded, I think the heretic ability is a one-time use. Jitsu's one of those players who doesn't fuck around and will use it sensibly. On top of this, I really think it's a pro-town ability no matter who get's it. The only way it would not be is if the Archbishop doesn't use it, at which point we kill him and the Emperor re-assigns it.

Same reason for syllo/sand, but they have the benefit of two brains so they can pick a better target. Hopefully


No it isnt a pro-town ability no matter who gets it. Its a free rolecheck for scum, and if it works for frames (No idea about this just speculation).... Yes its still useful to an extent, but why give it to scum when no scum archbishop will ever deliever a [unless frames work/its a bus] scum check?

By saying that you are willing to elect Jitsu as you archbishop means you are relatively sure he is town. I am strongly suspicious that you seem to want to elect him simply because he is supposedly good, and its good no matter how who gets it. I dont see a single reason why you think hes town, only what good he could do with it IF hes town.


Yes. at this moment i don't think anyone is town. Therefore I gave names about who I think is good.

It's also a free rolecheck for everyone, not just scum. Re-read the mention. If scum outs a blue, we know who to protect as well as vigs won't shoot them. Still beneficial


Yes but if scum gets it its power is drastically reduced, and if scum have some way of messing it up we are more likely than not going to blow a lynch on a townie.

I am not going to vote for Hassy for two reasons.
1) I will not support Jitsu for archbishop - He has done nothing this game, I dont care how "good" he is when all he has done is try (and not even try hard) to be empreor.
2) I think Hassy is looking sketchy atm.

It's definitely a good ability for scum to be able to blue snipe, even deductively, depending on who they flip

I'm glad Zelblade called Acrofales a noobie before I did
I was starting to feel like I'm just sleep deprived in having a village idiot read on him
Acrofales, you think people are voting you because of your walls?
They're not.
They're voting you because of your claim.

Unlike them, however, I don't stick to reads, and you definitely parroted me

Also I find it very very hard to believe that Acro didnt know why he was shot n1 (or 2 idc) in SSM, considering the post game discussion and stuff.

WBG is BagManager, the smurf he used in Bastard Mafia.

Yeah. You made a good catch on that, possibly.

Hello, Would you like to marry me companion cube?

The important part is how he explained his thought process on Acrofales. Note how direct he is in saying what he thinks and how he's actively trying to figure things out. This is the town Bill Murray. We all know that he loves the game and is quite competitive, so posts like these fit right in with what you would expect out of him. When he's mafia, posts like these are absent from his filter. He doesn't actively speak his thoughts or convey his feelings. And that's exactly what he's doing this game as well.

He had other posts where he explained his thought process that game. One of them is very very long so I've omitted it (you'll find it if you look through his filter for that game. Remember he is town here). But you can always find the posts where he explains his reads. In this game it was in list form:

Alright. Acrofales may not be parroting me, and might be genuine still.
Considering he is going to be the Emperor, there is no point in gunning there
I am much more suspicious of OpZ/Carolus/Mattchew of the recent posters that I formerly had town reads on

People that were scummy that aren't as bad include Forumite, Drazerk, and MG



Mattchew - town
A.T.L.A.S. - town
P-Body - not touching with a 10 foot pole until someone will decode
Laika - lurking dog
Companion Cube - want to lynch if i dont see scumhunting; too focused on buddying
OpZ - scum via meta
Adam4167 - dont believe ive seen much from him, but ive seen him play as town before, so i should be ok
U - town
YES_THIS_IS_DOG - lurker/inactive
The_Bard - good taste in music, but other than that, very null
Carolus Magnus - scum
QuickSilver7 - town
Mr. Potatohead - lurking scum
Itouchyou - lurking town
Hassybaby - scum
Drazerk - town
Strongandbig - town
Vaderseven - v7 is in this game?
Quatol - lurker, one post saying they needed to read the thread
Bluelightz - town
Zelblade - town
Sinani206 - town
Kurumi - town
erandor - town
Acrofales - town
MajuGarzett - town
Forumite - town
Jitsu - town
bagmanager - scum
Bill Murray - town


so i have like 5-6 scum naturally... i am not 100%, but this is just general



Another good example of his town play is from Death Factory mafia. It's easy to scroll through and find posts that he makes where he explains his thoughts about other players in the game:

I'm actually curious to see what other players say first. There is plenty of time in the day and there's no rush.

I'd like to use time to get more reads, rather than idly talk about things we've already been talking about.

risk.nuke, layabout, Wiggles, Mattchew, and Bill Murray: I want you to do the bulk of the talking. Go. Tell us what you would like to do right now and who you would like to kill.

Syllogism - I want to test Cephiro's hard-softclaim. He isn't outright claiming any investigative ability, whether, if he has it or not, it is multiple or single use, or anything, but his softclaim was as close to a guilty claim as I have seen in a long time. I don't want to not test that.
PRP - Like syllo, I feel like his interactions with WBG, and the way he responded to the Cephiro ordeal, is pretty damning. I am willing to lynch him off of associative tells, but I'd like to flip syllo first.

Tobon - Though he has been looking better, with his defense being "noone has made a case on me, therefore I can't be scum", and all the flak he has gotten, he has my eyebrows raised.

Bluelightz - I really wouldn't mind losing him, even if he is town. He is not a VI, I don't think, so I feel like he is playing dumb as scum. I am not sure, however, that he isn't a little kid that wanders, lost, into the middle of the movie theatre... but with an AK.


And again you can find other long posts that are always present in his town play:

Either way we need to get the above four out of here. I would want to wait until the lights come back on, and I'm kind of scared to do anything due to VE dying...

If your interaction with syllo wasn't completely 100% scummy, I would feel like you were town WBG. I do have a leaned townread on you, but it's not 100% like I felt about Palmar, because you could potentially be throwing syllogism under the bus. I only say this because your questioning of him felt too good, to where it looked like an act. If you're really that good, and that was the building up, and prelude of a great case, bravo.

We haven't been using our PoPs correctly. Now, I'm not a dictator, as I'm not confirmed or anything like an innocent child (definitely not bluelightz lol), so I'm not going to boss people around in a "Soviet Russia make you push or pull like want" way, only sort of. We need to hold people accountable, loosen up, and ask people questions. Scum will eventually become illogical... it wears on you being scum. Here's to hoping so, at least.

reasons you should believe I'm town:
1) I actually want our next course of action to be to consolidate pushes or pulls around what Snarf wants to do, but I know the thread won't go for it, and would lash out against me, so I'm not touching it with a ten-foot-pole.
2) proposing someone else leads versus myself... kind of having second thoughts on that, though
3) personal meta of lack of night posting, whereas, as scum, i'd post in the night /wifom

Honestly, though, I can't really be sure snarfs is town...
1) Godfather
2) I could be naive
3) Snarfs has a Lawyer, possibly Qatol
4) I could be ... no, VE flipped town... I can't be insane... not in the game at least :D
...A role changing ability, or busdriver


only the first two are valid, where my ability was day use
However, I feel comfortable leading myself, if you all aren't satisfied listening to Snarfs.
I'm not saying to not scumhunt, and to turn into sheep. I'm just saying that people are really looking to be prone to wasting their pushes and pulls without any sense of order, which allows for scum to blend in, and that should be our first mission as a town to prevent



If you look at his mafia games, in particular, Area LIII and LVI, you'll find these long posts are absent. For instance in LVI his longest post was a nice little:

Are you arguing that I should have been more convinced of VE's innocence, despite his scummy play, and pushed people off of his lynch? Perhaps I could have, but hindsight is cruel, and I would have not wanted to have been led to a no-lynch. Like I said in the post you only partially quoted, I highly doubt that I could have convinced the people voting for VE to move off of him.

Would I have liked to have been perfectly certain and pulled a ton of pressure to move votes off of VE? Sure. Did I think it was the right, or feasible, idea at the time? No.


MG is wording this like a politician. He knows defense is overrated, but that isn't the point. He isn't going to defend him anyways.

He has been uncaring, even for a no lynch

His name is MidnightGladius.
##Vote: MidnightGladius



Which is nowhere near of the calibre that you see in his town games. Furthermore you can see in this accusation post (remember he is mafia this game) that he only accused MG after others had gone after him (he says so himself in this post). This is easy to see from his filter in that game because this is the first time he's ever talked about MG.

This is exactly what he's done this game. He doesn't make any mention of me, but once a handful of people say I'm mafia he immediately hops aboard the train trying to contribute. Exactly what he did as mafia in LIII with MidnightGladius.


Summary of why Bill Murray is mafia:
1) Overall inactivity. He hasn't done anything this game. Do any of the posts he's made stick out at you as memorable?
2) Spam level. He's had zero spam this game. There is a noticeable difference in his spamminess when he is town and mafia. This game it is consistent with his mafia play.
3) No long posts. When Bill Murray is town, he makes posts that are paragraphs long. When he is mafia he never does such a thing. This game he hasn't made a post longer than ~5 sentences.
4) Lack of thoughts or accusations. When he is town he is not afraid to call someone out or make a long (relative to him) accusation post. When he is mafia he is all aboard the sheep train. He even said in a post that he is sheeping and in another post that he thinks sheeping is good for the town.


Obviously have to take care of more pressing mafia first.
