Like most players so far, Golbat hasn't done much to seem solidly town. Doesn't mean he's scum. | ||

Neither Sideni or TolEranceNA have played a game of TL mafia before, nor have they posted beyond saying "/in." If they've forgotten about joining this game they will be modkilled no? | ||

Golbat has made a number of fluff posts, with the only real material coming when he attacked my confusion about his role in the last game he played. The cases he claimed to be forming are not in evidence (yet). As it stands, Golbat might be a semi-lurker mafia. However, Synyster remains my top suspect. | ||

YH: the whole point of being scum is to confuse the town. Being a confusing townie only makes people suspicious: as you no doubt have noticed. iamperfection: other than YH's incompetence, who do you think is actually mafia? | ||

So far you've suspected YH and Hapa. There are 3 scum, so who is the third? | ||

Or do scum already know that they should be active? Or is there a benefit? Or isn't there? Is the wine in front of me? Here, he doesn't say very much at all. First off, policy lynching lurkers is not because activity indicates alignment, it's because when town can lurk, then scum gets a free ride to lurk, too. Policy lynches are designed as punishment to "dry up the pond" for scumfish to swim around in. Second, when he says that scum like to cause discord amongst the town, it's almost like he's painting anyone who comes out with an early case as a potential scum. Why would a town want to do that? Town benefits from discussion and active scumhunting, even to the point of arguments, if necessary. Scum have to look like they're trying to catch scum, without committing to anything. Here, Synystyr does that, as well as basically priming Golbat for a lynch, without having to commit himself. This is anti-town play at best. Scum try to buddy other players very aggressively in the early parts of the game. This is a classic scumslip. Wait a second: earlier Synystyr says that "activity is not indicative of alignment"; now, when people pressure him, he argues for a lurker policy lynch. This is the biggest slip in the thread so far. In conclusion: town doesn't have to act like they're scumhunting without actually committing. Town doesn't have to try and buddy other players. Town doesn't have to self-consciously apologize for fluff posts and then immediately contradict their own post from 2 pages ago. There is no reason to do any of this... unless he's scum. ## Vote Synystyr To add to Shady's case, Synyster offers no information of his own while saying he's waiting for golbat's cases. Scum hate making their own cases. | ||

In all seriousness, my FOS point to only 2: synyster and iamperfection For the record, YH and golbat are likely townie reads in my opinion. | ||

Golbat is average suspicion, and YH is inscrutable. Right now (and I reserve the right to change my mind when more posts are made) I think iamperfection would give us more information. If he flips red, YH looks much less suspicious. Hard to believe he would bus YH that hard D1. Synyster is still a good lynch because of the cases brought so far. Unfortunately, because he has said basically nothing, the connections would be less obvious. Voting trends are always useful though. | ||

He has posted on policy, attacked YH way more than is needed, and fluff. Directing discussion to another game doesn't look good. Talk about something other than lurkers and YH. From a scum point of view, YH is the perfect target to tunnel on because a mislynch would be defensible. YH has acted somewhat suspiciously, but is also attracting a lot of attention and will struggle to keep his cover if he really is mafia. Otherwise, I invite everyone to filter iamperfection and look at how little content he has offered. He has commented on the D1 lynch policy, called out lurkers, and referenced another game of mafia. He has made no reads other than YH. | ||

My initial suspicion of YH has been almost universally shared. However, given the meta-game information that has come out and his prominence, YH seems more incompetent than sinister. My generally widespread suspicion has been in order to elicit as much discussion as possible. | ||

Since Synyster and YourHarry are taken, I will make a case for Golbat Golbat has made a number of fluff posts, with the only real material coming when he attacked my confusion about his role in the last game he played. The cases he claimed to be forming are not in evidence (yet). As it stands, Golbat might be a semi-lurker mafia. However, Synyster remains my top suspect. Like most players so far, Golbat hasn't done much to seem solidly town. Doesn't mean he's scum. Golbat's main contribution has been noticing my early flub. That points to an being an active townie or a mafia jumping on an early mistake. Worth watching but not explicitly a suspect. For the record. | ||
