Ok, having caught up on the thread a few things have jumped out to me.

Firstly, because of general inactivity and the accusations that have been flying every which way between the active posters in the thread I think the correct play for scum has been to lay low. I'm looking at several players who have avoided putting out a lot of content, specifically Chezinu, Talismania, iamperfection, and KVille. At this moment I'd be fine with a lynch on any of them, but especially Chezinu. I realize he plays trolly, but he hasn't contributed much more than placeholder votes at the end of the days. This is bullshit. Feel free to hoist him up and I'll make sure to dance on his grave.

It seems like there is a decent amount of traction towards a talismania lynch. While my gut prefers a Chezinu lynch, I can happily get behind this lynch as well. Having played with talis in the past, I think he's been inactive/unhelpful enough to warrant a lynch.

I'm pretty tired and catching up on the thread while I probably should have been sleeping has left my brain fried. I'll hopefully get some more time when I wake up to put together more complete cases. Night everybody.


To the bold, this could well be a good shout.

Lvdr, do you have a 2nd read behind talis?


Thanks for drawing attention to this.

Marv, do you have 2nd and 3rd reads behind talis?

This.

On Lvdr on D2, the people who jumped were me and you. The person who led the DJ lynch train was IamP. So the only thing we have to blame is ourselves. Today, we should stick to the Lvdr lynch.

I just am really frustrated with the reasoning on the Talis wagon. I feel like Lvdr is a much, much, much stronger case than talis, and even certain folks on that wagon themselves seem to acknowledge it, yet somehow the Talis wagon has more votes. What gives?

I jumped, but only after no one was voting lvdr. This time I'm not going to buy in, even if it is another good candidate such as tali. It is the same reason I'm not voting Dj right now. I need to stick to my original read. We need answers!

I think the mafia are trying to lure me by providing a name that was on my list.

So why do you think Lvdr is scummy?

These two posts say about the same thing. Very similiar in content. But only those who understand the chez troll can read it. It's very useful to talk to selected individuals. Others won't even read your posts.


Chez, here's the thing though. When you make a post like that and then vote for someone, you're not trying to convince other people of the correctness of your vote.

When town votes for someone, town wants other people to follow their vote as well. Town votes in good faith.

Scum doesn't. Scum wants the results of their votes to ideally never see the light of day, because that would mean either bussing or mislynching. So scum doesn't want to persuade other people to vote for the people they do.

Hence when you vote for someone and then make troll posts to justify the vote, people view you as scum. I hope you understand that.

Winning is not the only objective of playing mafia. Having fun is a crucial part of the game. Of course, I will try and withhold having too much fun if it will hurt the town. But I don't see how making that post hurts the town.

Posts like that don't hurt the town, but they don't help the town either.

The issue is if you're just playing to have fun, it makes it impossible to develop good reads on you. That's what ends up hurting town. Understand?

Lvdr lynch will give a big time info to us. If he flips scum, we're good. If he is townie, then we have all the reasons to suspect Chezinu.


Your claimed trap was to push a lynch on lvdr, who you supposedly think might be scum. if he is, great, if he isn't maybe you can catch people bandwagoning. So far... ok. But at the time you made that post, you already had two people voting behind you. So the actual trap part wasn't this post, it was the part where you voted lvdr. This doesn't contribute to the supposed trap. Instead it sounds like what it probably is: lynch lvdr, if he flips town, lynch chez. In essence, justifying two days of votes at once, which smells like scum. That isn't bait for anything, and calling it that is a clumsy way to recast your actions.

Talis, where are you? Your neck is on the chopping block. You should be in here defending yourself.

Maybe they lost convincingly in that game and he's trying to work on his scum play?


Well, I have an odd feeling that you might be scum, and that your pushing for the easy lynch today, and I think talis is town, from his reasoning on not being active.

What the heck?
You think Talis is town.

Then you say that you'll vote on him to consolidate. That's a blatant sheep vote and you know it. You've only contributed one decent case on Chez so far and that's it.

I like my previous read on talis being scum. Also, I disappeared mainly because (as you noted) I was extremely involved in the other game, esp coming down to lynch deadlines, and I was unable to deal with shady because I was mad at him (oops).

The lack of activity makes me really uncomfortable. Also, it may be a cross game gambit, but Shady's actions here seem similar to those in the other game (where he flipped scum). I keep getting a "He is either really bad town or clumsy scum" read across the two games.

I would say lets just lynch him, but I don't think thats actually good play.

Hence, ##vote:Talismania


As noted above, he's sheeping Marv and IamP here when he's already done that with the Obvious lynch. Moreover, the results of his reading simply state that

Other than me and Talis, he has no results. At all. No comment on the whole IamP/Chez/DJ discussion which has occupied most of the last three pages, no mention of his thoughts on the D2 no-lynch at all. No analysis of voting patterns or anything specific which leads to his scumreads on me or Talis; instead, we just get a general meta read and reiteration of prior points on Talis.

Except: this is his prior read on Talis:
Show nested quote +
Regarding talis, I would give him no better than a null read. 2 points that stuck out to me.
1. The activity is quite low, and not particularly filled with content. I wouldn't call it downright scummy though.
2. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=359836&currentpage=25#497
This post latches on to a stretch of a case, complete agreement, no further points made, never revisited beyond his initial AHA moment.

Which he has never elaborated upon. Indeed, his vote on Talis D2 said this:
Show nested quote +
##Vote: Talismania

Let's see what happens.

So Lvdr at this point has offered the town no reads at all since D1, while claiming to have scumreads on 2 people. In addition he's sheeping Marv yet again and making excuses for his lurky behavior when he clearly had a much higher activity level in the game where he was town.

Basically, at this point, he has a giant scum sign hanging above his head. This, on top of the fact that lynching him will provide town with a plethora of information about other players as well.

In case you guys haven't done it yet,

Vote Lvdr or else I will call my friend to find your IP address and DDOS you back to the stone age.

I'll look closer at Lvdr. I'm at work so it'll probably take me a while. What's your opinion towards Chez? I don't like the idea of him being around during LYLO because his filter is pretty shit.

I'll do my best to comment, answer questions, and build towards a lynch today, but once again I'm at work so it will be difficult for me to get in here.


My opinion toward Chez is just like yours. My response is a bit different though. I want to give him a chance to contribute. If he still doesn't, then we lynch him after Lvdr.

Also, Chez is not a realistic wagon today. It's coming down to Lvdr or Talismania.

Hmm my read on chez is that he is engaged in the game. His voting patterns look pretty pro-town (extremely active at deadline, seems to be trying to find a good lynch even if he doesn't actually state reasoning)

Unfortunately it is very hard (at least for me) to read a troll player. YourHarry's scum game was deadly effective, and it doesn't seem that a troll townie could be all that useful to the town.

Not sure why he voted for me, but hopefully there is an explanation at the other end of the rainbow.

That being said, I think a vigi shot could be a good call at this point.

Does the town know who made the shot

Regarding talis, I would give him no better than a null read. 2 points that stuck out to me.
1. The activity is quite low, and not particularly filled with content. I wouldn't call it downright scummy though.
2. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=359836&currentpage=25#497
This post latches on to a stretch of a case, complete agreement, no further points made, never revisited beyond his initial AHA moment.

Maybe I've talked myself into a scum-read. I have to see how I feel after some-more activity.

I like my previous read on talis being scum. Also, I disappeared mainly because (as you noted) I was extremely involved in the other game, esp coming down to lynch deadlines, and I was unable to deal with shady because I was mad at him (oops).

The lack of activity makes me really uncomfortable. Also, it may be a cross game gambit, but Shady's actions here seem similar to those in the other game (where he flipped scum). I keep getting a "He is either really bad town or clumsy scum" read across the two games.

I would say lets just lynch him, but I don't think thats actually good play.

Hence, ##vote:Talismania


classic scum forgetting what he wrote earlier.

##vote:lvdr


Yep. Town, what Talis just pointed out is a fairly open scumslip. Everyone pile in.

hokay so basically I'm on the block because I haven't been around? I guess that makes sense. I haven't been around much after all =P Can't say I've even really gotten into this game from the get-go either. I usually like a bit of setup talk to chew on but this one after all is normal.

ok let me gather my reads n shit.


Apathy that only happens when talis is not town. talis hates scum and loves playing town. I'd like to see him even try to deny this, and try to explain this away.

These are very spurious tells you're going off of. Basically your whole case on Talis boils down to him not knowing his own meta. If Talis knew his town meta was "enthusiastic+busy", why would he even make posts which make him seem apathetic? Only a town Talis would have an excuse to excuse his own lurky play.

talis' defence is

"i don't give a shit about this game"

brilliant.

Lynch this guy.

And Lvdr's defence is "when I'm town, I play like a scum".

Guys I always seem to have these 'scumslips' as town. I can be too offhand in assuming people know what I mean, which gets me into trouble. My prior read was slight scummy on talis. Coming back later I was reconfirming as a stronger read.

Let's make sure we have a lynch today though, even if its me. 2 no lynches would be pretty bad...

Lvdr your read on Talis was null. When you voted Talis you said "let's see what happens" not "I think we got a scum." Then you conflate your original read into "I have a scum read on Talis".

Shady you're so dumb sometimes

Jeez Marv. I just posted my interpretation of Talis' actions.

Why don't you post your interpretation of how Lvdr could forget his own fucking read on someone?
