Palmar is Mafia: He puts out the idea of a random lynch and tries to convince the town to go with it. Random lynches are a bad idea, yes there are a lot of mafia but there are more townies. There's a higher chance of hitting a townie D1 which I rather not have happen. Palmar's defenses and responses to other people are pretty interesting and lacking to say the least. Here are a couple recent ones that I pulled from his filter. When Marv confronted Palmar and asked his to share this is how Palmar replied Then a couple of pages later comes back with this I thought it was interesting and wanted to bring attention to him. Palmar as isn't playing like his "Usual" self this game. He hasn't started up his play of calling people idiots and chewing them out for disagreeing with him. Instead he has been trying to keep his mouth shut in case he gets a few people a little too angry and the votes start shifting towards him. As for BH, I'm not too sure about him yet. I'm going to wait to see more until I make a decision on him. Kurumi: I'm leaning suspicious on. I have been in enough games with him where he's been Mafia to have a good idea of how he plays. So far he hasn't been as obnoxious and confusing as he has been previously in other games but there is still enough to make me be weary. Until I see more I'm going to keep an eye on him. This is an awful post. A. You clearly did not read austin's post here + Show Spoiler + On July 16 2012 22:17 austinmcc wrote: Ummmm, did nobody read iGrok's game? The %s may be higher here, but a random lynch still isn't anything but a discussion-generator. That game was 2 scum 1 SK 8 town, 3/11 or 27% chance to hit non-town on a random lynch. This is 9/27, 33% chance. Not higher enough to really matter. I like the discussion of causing chaos to mess with mafia, to some extent. Just like with the Sleeper Cell games, this isn't normal mafia. Town have the numbers advantage, and, for now, are more or less on even footing information-wise. Scum don't have an advantage UNTIL they get organized. Some forms of being chaotic would be equally harmful to both factions, other forms would be more harmful to town (higher numbers). However, I don't support trying to cause chaos, because we don't know (and can't know) when mafia will get organized. We can speculate all we want about how many cycles it could take, and how each of us would communicate with mafia underlings were we CEO (see sleeper cell...II? for message speculation), but, especially given the vague comments about censoring messages made by hosts, we just don't know whether mafia can get fully organized, or how long that would take. At some point, IF they can organize, any chaos we cause only hurts town and no longer hurts mafia. Not good. B. His response to Marv is also explained in that same post The point is that you can't really explain that in the thread (hence why I didn't) because as soon as everyone realizes you're meant to argue about whether you actually follow through with the random lynch, instead of just executing it, everyone will start thinking about it like a normal case based on analysis, and the advantage will have been lost. ..C. The "I hate you all" post was (i think) in response to Austin post, because it says explicitly that it cant be explained in thread or it is ruined. D.

I want him to change his behavior since the less shit that goes on in the thread the better, he can still be scum but the thread won't be a nightmare to read and we can simply catch him later This is the type of stuff people write so that they can look pro-town and look like they make sense. He seems to be trying to look sensible and not shitstorm causing which I feel is a common tactic used by scum to deflect attention from themselves. I already quoted Prob on him being extremely passive and careful, and I think he has continued that since I don't understand the Syllogism case despite reading BH's posts. This is why I asked Palmar to explain it to me which he hasn't. If anyone else would like to explain it to me that would be much appreciated I think Prob has called out MZ for something I agree with to be scummy. Therefore at this moment I would not vote him over MZ. I already said why I think BH is town Right now I lean town on Palmar. I don't see anything scummy about his game play My point with Katina is not just that she is wrong. It is the flaws in logic and the lack of reading she does when making her case against Palmar. These are things that scum katina does, town Katina may not always be right, but she makes a hell of a lot more sense then here | ||

I know I'm an easy target to get mislynched but that's not going to happen today. You think that scummy people are town and people that aren't that scummy you are pushing for to get lynched. Your points against me are based off of nothing except the fact that your reads are different than mine. I'm trying to find scum and you just made your way onto my Mafia list with Palmar. You come out of nowhere and immediately jump all over one of my posts then nit pick at my response to you. The reasoning for your suspicions are bad and have close to nothing to back any of it up with. Most of what you say you just pulled out of thin air. You are making a sad attempt to do what WBG does in attempts to try and get me lynched. You literally haven't answered any of my points in my case against you and you still fail to even quote what I have wrote. I can't tell if you haven't read it or if you just don't know how to respond to the truth | ||

On July 17 2012 03:29 austinmcc wrote: Matt, your case on Katina is wrong, regardless of what alignment she is. I posted that bit from iGrok's game. Some of the players in this game played in that game. At least one of the players here read that game closely. If a random lynch is pro-town because it generates information until you pull back the curtain, then it functions differently here, because the curtain is already pulled back (it took all of like 30 seconds to find that post). Can't assume that he's throwing out the random lynch idea for he same reason as normal. Katina may be wrong about some bits of her case on Palmar, but I think you're also wrong about her. I don't think you are correct. I think Palmar was doing EXACTLY what he said in that other game and is pissed that you quoted him from it, thus revealing his curtain | ||

WBG said here (LVI Obs) the way to catch Katina Also if you read my reasoning behind Katina being scum that's essentially how you catch her. She was much more slippery this game, probably because she heeded the advice I gave her last time. She had multiple targets and she made "cases" on different people (last time she just tunneled one guy) but her downfall was that if she was town she would've equally attacked different people for the same reasons. In other words if she wanted stronger scumplay she should've been aware of contradicting herself She ignores others in favor of RL and she contradicts herself about Palmars defense with her own completely lacking defense | ||

Keep that in mind for a second. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=349678&user=233798 He does nothing but shed doubt on sandro's claim. He instantly disbelieves it without considering other evidence. He knows the caliber of sandro's town play yet he doesn't even acknowledge the possibility that sandro could be town. In addition he's stayed toward the back of the discussion, as he does when he is scum. When he is town he is out in front if he thinks people are being stupid. He will kick and scream and call people retarded if they're doing something he disagrees with. Clearly he disagrees with us sheeping sandro on his catch of Kurumi (otherwise why else would he shed doubt on it?) but notice that he actually doesn't do anything to stop the wagon. i.e. his doubt is unfounded and he wants to undermine sandro without taking heat for the action itself. Scum tactic. Kurumi is going to die at the end of the day. Thus, we should kill someone else. Let's kill this guy for now. Make the bad man fly. ##unvote ##vote layabout why do you want me dead? | ||

My intuition hasn't let me down yet. I assure you that as soon as I can demostrate he is Mafia accurately I will. I did go back and take another look at Mattchew's filter though. He's only going after me because I'm an easy target (Liar game is proof of that. In that game three different Mafia members went after me) It's evident that his case against me was incredibly forced and makes little sense this is seen because nobody agrees with it. People like WBG know my play very well so if his case had any value it would be sure that these people (WBG, VE, etc) would be commenting on it. He hasn't done anything this game besides tunnel me and attempt to nuke BM. That's a very questionable move in itself. To answer WBG's questions, I'm not sure about VE yet. I will let you know what I take a look at him. I will get back to you on Foolishness. Yeah testing nukes on someone who hasn't posted and I would normally be ok with policy lynching sure is questionable! I've also posted reads on people like BH, MZ and others while trying to stimulate discussion and push people for their reasons, but fuck that, I have only tunneled you | ||

In this game, the only thing related to actual play (and not setup) he ever said was that matt's case on Katina and Katina's case on Palmar looked wrong. I've asked him twice now for thoughts both on BH/MZ and on who his scum reads might be and he hasn't bothered to say anything. He's parked his vote on sandroba for no other reason than that he wants to know what his role is. Looks like scum to me.

Does it change your read on Katina or Palmar? I would have thought you'd not instantly jump on someone based on that RL thing without checking it out at first. I don't really see you caring about the game right now either. You think Katina is scum yet you are just asking irrelevant questions and posting one-liners. Fuck, Mattchew you act like this every game and I don't know if you do it on purpose at times. I actually read that and meant to respond, but forgot to put it in the thread. Firstly I read the post as if it was written in postgame discussion which was a dumb assumption but I don't think it changes its meaning I don't think his alignment had anything to do with his thoughts on Random Lynching in that game. I mean ace literally said in the next post that he completely agreed with Palmar about Random lynching and Ace was town. I don't think was a trick tried by Palmar or anything like that in either game. Theres a decent chance at that point he had not even read his role PM (a. I know he has done this before and b. he didn't post in the scum qt till way later) I am trying to care about the game but there is so much E-Penis measuring going on and unexplained reads that I find all of this pretty hard to follow, and when I ask people to elaborate, I am very much ignored Right now, I believe Kurumi to be scum and nuked cause when I tried to launch a nuke it didn't go off I believe Katina, MZ and Rastaban to all be very suspicous and scummy. Hence my poking and prodding at people about them. | ||

I don't agree with him, but in a game where I was expecting mafia to be awfully self-aware, his play seems straight up counterproductive. It's a very weird/dumb/ballsy thing to do as mafia.

We know that there is indeed a politician type role in the game. It's mafia aligned because it happened when we were trying to secure the lynch on BH, and shifting it to gonzaw is essentially shifting it to a no-lynch. It is alignment null on the person it was used on (Mattchew), but I find his response to it wrong (for possibly thinking it could be town originated), surprisingly pointed out by Chezinu. I think it may possibly be a ninja vote type thing (switch his own vote without announcement). Furthermore, Kurumi's nuke was real. I find that very alarming that mafia were given KP. Probably the only minion ability of that power though for balance's sake, and probably indicative of many blues.

You said rastaban was Mafia twice but only said that was because he was looking out for himself, that's hardly a reason to call someone mafia. You did not want to kill gonzaw D1 but you didn't do anything to stop the votes from going over. Instead you sat there and watched it all happen, of course your vote got stolen but that shouldn't stop from telling everyone to vote for someone else instead.Futhermore you never commented on any of the big names in the thread.

Looking through his filter he posts to make it look like he's doing something and contributing but in reality his posts don't say much of anything. Basically they are asking people the same "what do you think of this guy" "What do you think of this reponse" but not generating anything useful.

Why move it back? Honestly I am starting to think that whoever used it was just trying to mess with us, so I am going to drop it. Thats why I suggested it could have been a townie as well | ||

When we have more information on how he's done this (given time) we can more effectively determine his alignment. If, at any point, there are no players scummier than him, we just kill him.

In his hands, he clutched a thick sheaf of redacted spreadsheets, crooked financial records, and bribery lists, as well as some dirty photographs of the company's top executives enjoying a wild party with dozens of ladies of the night thrown in good measure. Now sandroba just had to find an honest mid-level executive to help him expose their corruption, bribery, and dirty dealing to the world. Unable to find working elevators anywhere in the building, sandroba raced up the stairs to the office of the Principal Operations Liaison. However, on the door to his office read a sign saying, "Please refer your business to the Corporate Communications Strategist on the 17th floor." Chagrined, sandroba dashed up to this man's office, only to behold a sign directing him to the Internal Security Coordinator on the 4th floor. Up and down the stairs he sprinted, getting more and more exhausted and out of breath. To his growing frustration and fatigue, each office pointed him toward the office of even more obscure executives, from the Senior Creative Director to the Customer Division Manager or the Chief Accountability Orchestrator. His heart pounded agonizingly, sweat poured out of his body, his head ached abominably, and his blood throbbed in his veins. Before long, the exertion of running from office to office up, down, across, and diagonally through the building became too much for him. At last, sandroba's over-strained heart gave out just as he arrived, gasping and blue of face, at the door of the Human Directives Analyst. Of course, this door, just like all the others, bore a sign saying, "Please refer your business to the District Data Designer on the 20th floor." Coming upon the corpse of sandroba, another harried and overworked employee cried out an outraged shout. He had been feeling uncertain about life, death, and continuing to work for this demonic corporation already, and now he discovered that one of his colleagues had died on the job. With a swift movement, he shattered his coffee mug against a nearby table to make a jagged improvised weapon and charged up the stairs until he found the poshest, most luxurious office in the building. Screaming out again, this employee burst within and stabbed in bloodthirsty fashion at a stunned-looking Foolishness. Within a few minutes, the veil of red passed from before his eyes, but by then Foolishness was long dead. sandroba the Bossy Employee has been exhausted to death. Foolishness the CEO was stabbed to death with a broken coffee mug. + Show Spoiler [role PM] + Congratulations, you are Foolishness the CEO! Naturally, you are an evil, evil bureaucrat. You control a mighty company that is moving in to acquire Liquidia. Having already dominated the games queue thread with your dictatorial policies, you judge the time is ripe for assuming complete control. However, because you are too occupied scheming and ripping off customers, you only have time to issue orders to your two trusted directors (once every half cycle). You do, however, know the powers your company posseses amongst its minions. They are: [information redacted] Be warned: one of the above minions is a traitorous employee who wants to sell you out to your fiercest competitor and doesn't actually have a power. Sadly, you don't know his identity. On the other hand, just like a real evil dictator, you have the power to kill your own employees. Any time during the game, you may use your secret trap door to anonymously (and instantaneously) kill one of your employees in an attempt to kill the traitor (one use). However, the trap door only works on your own employees. If you use it on a non-employee, the kill does not go through, they are notified someone made an attempt on their life but not who, and your night action immunity goes kaput. Unfortunately, your subordinates don't know who you even are because you're too busy playing around on your luxury yacht. Luckily, you know them! Your subordinates are: [information redacted] Once every half cycle (day/night) you may choose to send a message to one of your subordinates (Chairman of the Board or VP of Marketing) Because you are the CEO, you have immense power. Any malovent night action on you fails (besides vigilante shot) and you are notified that someone attempted that action but not who. You also show up as a role of your choice to any detective type actions. You may choose from the following roles that might exist or make up your own! [information redacted] Lastly, your team will vote on a kill. During the day, the rest of the mafia will send in their kill choice to the mod. At the lynch we will present you with a list of names to choose the kill from.. If you die the Chairman of the Board takes over your job, then the vice president of marketing, and if he dies then the name which comes up the most from the remaining mafia members is the target. Once per game you may eschew the advice of your minions and simply choose the target yourself. If you live and one of your executives die, you will be given a name of their most trusted (living) minion. You may choose to promote said minion to the executive's position (and knowledge), if you choose to spend 1 full cycle without sending messages.

Until you do that I am not risking a no lynch simply because someone else might be scum. You forget we have less voting power than usual.

I don't know if this is because he is afraid to discuss players and their motives or if it is because he is just trying to figure it out the "safe" "mod-confirmed" way | ||

After day 1 all he ever does with MZ is include him on ever single scum list he makes. He's not talking at all about what MZ is posting. Define doing nothing about it. | ||

I'm more of a null read on him right now and I wouldn't be up to lynch him at this moment since I have found others who are much more scummier to me. I don't think it's a good idea to lynch Zealos (atleast not right now) As I said there are others that should be lynched instead right now. I feel strongly for a sloosh or gonzaw lynch as I have state before. I have seen some talk sbout Meapak and I wouldn't mind that either (Since he's on my list) but as for Zealos he hasn't been around for awhile so I will hold off on that until I see more from him. His filter can go either way... Either Mafia or misguided townie (I'm not positive on which one like Mattchew) On July 22 2012 09:25 Katina wrote: Gonzaw: I noticed that in the two pages of his filter he complains a lot about the how much chaos is in the thread but yet he does nothing about it. Instead Gonzaw often goes off and comes back eventually posts something then gone again. He talks a lot about other players in the game but never hard pushes anyone. Gonzaw makes long posts that basically ramble on certain player and by the end I have forgotten what I have read. He tries to look useful with his posts but in the end they are just taking up space. He throws doubt around the town and takes off when he has done his job. I'm aware that he said he was away this weekend and can't be here to properly defend himself. this is literally all you have said about Gonzaw in terms of how you define his alignment. The first part can be attributed to his lack of time (to read and to post) and the 2nd part is like literally the most typical town Gonzaw-like play ever, meaning you have not taken account for his meta or previous games.

Palmar needs to be lynched today then one of the following next: Sloosh Meapak Gonzaw Layabout risk.nuke This is all you've said about sloosh. You don't believe his claim. You don't have reason for why you don't believe his claim, you just... dont? Katina, you are pushing lynches that you have just about not commented on. And now syllo is null, and rastaban says he hasn't done anything lol. I forgot to mention at any point that I did not want to lynch Gonzaw day 1 because I was playing in another game (I cant believe its not themed) and I was scum, and I was pushing Gonzaw for lynch on the same principals that he was being pushed for here. | ||

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. This is using your knowledge that like Palmar is 100% scum. Not everyone is as confident as you (I would argue like literally no one is) and I don't think Katina was as confident as you. 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 | ||

If you think Chez is scum because of his actions, then post a case, but lynching him because we want to test the mirror role thing is scummy as all hell. It has been "tested" and twice it has been found to be true. So if you accept that it is true that every role has a mirror than you can push Chez based on your belief but not to "test" it. So we aren't in a position where we can test a theory that nets us 2 scum? However, VE I have no seen a mirror to BM's role. | ||

It's a really bad reason to lynch someone. @Meapak Why did Zealos leave out the first line from sandroba's PM? I just don't understand how his reaction to sandroba makes him scum. Either he deliberately chose to remove that line and not respond to sandroba in thread, or he is dumb and wasn't reading. Wait a second, maybe he expected Sandroba to die that night alleviating him of the need to post the PM? But that doesn't explain why he left out the first line. I don't get it, can someone explain to me? I mean if it aint broke don't fix it type shit... but the problem is supersoft brings up a good point with chezinu+sand = 2execs so we would have to lynch into scum between you and VE and I don't feel comfortable doing that | ||

I can understand the rational behind a mafia vig shooting foolishness which is exactly why I'd expect him to have warned people against it. The more I think about it though, it doesn't matter either way since sloosh is scum no matter which way you slice it according to the mirror theory. Unless you think supersoft could be scum but I doubt it. it depends on how often execs can speak with their minions and how much info they disclosed. But shooting the guy basically everyone thought was scum is a good way to earn town cred. idk why sloosh/super would fakeclaim that shot knowing he would be counter-claimed | ||

Syllo I feel the crux of your case is how wrong he has been. If you have time please read him in I Can't Believe It's Not Themed. This post by WBG is about how wrong he with his reads in that game.

The only thing bugging me about her is Kurumi asking for her reads, and Katina responding that she has no town reads. Hopefully that isn't still the case. Post heavily edited to get question/answer I'm also more likely to compare her to LVI, since I played there and only read Liar Game. Some stupid comparisons: In LVI, her first page of filter has 10 !s. Here it has 5, and only in two playful posts. In LVI, she deflected Bugs and I, but no OMGUS. Here, after more pressure from Mattchew, she's finding him scummy (Not conclusive of anything) If you look at MTG when I pressured her she did the same OMGUS type thing | ||
