Lurkers are a minor annoyance sure, but I think just lynching based on lurker status could end up hurting us more so as the game progresses.

Lets focus on getting a mafia lynch for the first day.

I will try to discuss all your topics.

1 discuss lurker policy. I know you are bored with it or whatever, thrawn, but for peopel to say how they feel about lurkers and if they want to lynch them or let them lurk (both are viable strategies imo) gives us a baseline for FOSing people that go back on their lurker policy.
Like what if a scum says lynch all lurkers, then one of the scumbuddies turns out to be the biggest lurker. That puts him in a bad position that he could avoid without lurker policy discussion.


I don't think we should waste the first lynch on a lurker. Without sufficient information it could end up being detrimental to us.

However I don't want to forget about people who are lurking and leave them unscrutinized.

2 I think we should discuss a plan for how to spend time.
Here is my proposed plan: Freely making cases against anyone you think is scum in the first 24 hours of the day, then focusing on a couple of the biggest bandwagons in the second 24 hours.
Do you like this plan or do you have a better one? I would a more systematic scumhunt this game though.


We have to start somewhere, so I'll post a theory.

Most of the time they aren't mafia but in the 2 games I played both of them had semi-lurker mafia.

Lurker Policy: LYNCH ALL LURKERS, semilurkers at the top of the lynch list if we don't have a very strong scumread to bandwagon.


Kushm4sta, you say that it gives scum safe people to accuse, and I agree with that point, but your comment in your policy looks like it would fit that point. It would be pretty safe for a mafia if they were able to convince people to lynch lurkers.

Also Thrawn pointed out your contradiction.

So right now i am FOSing kushm4sta.

I have the lynch day off work, so I will be around a lot that day.

I mentioned before the game that I am working a few 12 hour shifts. Today is my last one which is over in 6 1/2 hours. Afterwards I'll be more into the discussion.

I also have the next four days off, so just be patient, I'll have something good tonight.

I disagree, nothing is impossible

I don't like that *active* part in the second line. Being active shouldn't exclude someone from a possible lynch candidate, so I still have my suspicions, but i'll leave those for later.

##FOS kushm4sta (There, not in a spoiler!)

Now then...

This Sharrant vs. Debears arguement. I think both of them are posting very strangely.

I have a stronger scum feeling on Sharrant though as of this moment.

I don't see why you would switch your vote after having two decently long posts about Kush with a semi-good arguement, and than after one paragraph about debears, change your vote.

So I also ##FOS Sharrant

I am going to do some more reading and try to have a better argument done before going to sleep.

I looked at this guy's filter again. And yeah it's fishy as hell.
So now I'm less suspicious of killingtime, more suspicious of debears.

First thing isn't it da bears not de bears??

His initial dickriding of thrawn strikes me as something that could just be indicative of newbie play. It's more productive to make cases against scum than cases for town, especially out of the blue when no one is even accusing the townie. But the latter is easier so it is very possible this is just a newb mistake.

But in his latest post he simultaneously continues the dick ride and defends his right to dickride.

Incoming possible scumslip:

However, if you look at the motivations from a townie and mafia perspective, it doesn't make sense as a mafia post. There's little reward for the risk as mafia. Here's what I showed earlier.

1) Thrawn as town - prevent the lurker discussion from going overboard. Present an idea that should provoke an "you're an idiot" response from town members (with a long shot of some mafia jumping on him about the idea).
2) Thrawn as mafia - Put up an idea that a thinking town would "not" take seriously, make himself look suspcicious. Possibly lynch the most inactive player if it works.


People really need to learn to specify antecedents btw. After about an hour of rereading I figured out that what he is actually saying here is that thrawn's retarded idea to lynch the last person who posts makes him town. He purports himself an expert on the "mafia perspective" even though this is his first game.

I would like more explanation about this line specifically:

1) Thrawn as town - prevent the lurker discussion from going overboard. Present an idea that should provoke an "you're an idiot" response from town members (with a long shot of some mafia jumping on him about the idea).

What do you mean mafia would "jump on him about the idea?" As in they would like or get mad at him for it? Are you saying that thinking that idea is bad makes you scum?


It is pretty much information that had been mentioned before, so can you elaborate more?

Okay, stolen from a guide.

Buddying is a tactic used to subconsciously become perceived as less of a threat by another player. While this is usually done by scum, Townies have been known to do this as well.
This is typically accomplished by the buddying player acting unnaturally friendly to its target, either subtly or outright. Originally, this made it so that once the buddying scum died, it implicated the victim they were acting friendly toward. In addition, by budding up to a victim, they will become less likely to want to lynch the buddying player in the first place. More recently, though, this has become used as a pre-emptive accusation against anyone who acts nicely toward another player, regardless of intent.


States that townies have been known to do this as well. Also the last sentence... "this has become used as a pre-emptive accusation against anyone who acts nicely toward another player, regardless of intent."

So I can see how it would indicate scum, but I don't think it would rule out town either.

Also it would be a good way to accuse him of this, and draw attention towards him.

Your case against me was made a really long time ago. Also it is real weak. And you blast me for the weakness of my cases?

You are actually one of the biggest lurkers at this point btw.


I would vote for you because I don't believe in the lurker policy lynch, and you're my biggest suspect at the moment. (Answers first two questions.)

It's still the first day, my case wasn't made that long ago. Just because it is nearing the end of the day doesn't diminish my case against you.

This is my 10th post in the thread since the game started. Explain to me how after saying 1 post is enough to stay out of lurker status, yet you say i'm one of the biggest lurkers. There are still a few who have posted less than myself, and I don't find it necessary to have almost 50 posts in day one, like yourself.

Well, fuck. I'm sorry, everyone. I had to PM the mod, and the mechanics in this game are similar but not quite the same to what I am used to. Enough to the point that were my plan successful the information would still be 50/50 on proving mafia.

Debears, your play has struck me as scummy, but I wasn't playing with full knowledge of the situation. You and Thrawn both stand a much better chance of being town in my eyes than you did 5 minutes ago.

So, I'm going with the lurkers now. Remedy, that vote randomly popping up on Kush is pretty suspicious to me, but I'm still more suspicious of stutters. So that's where my vote is going for now, but depending on Stutters next post, it could end up on Remedy very easily.

And what if the person you decide is lynch worthy based on lurker status comes up as a town. What are your plans after that? It is not helping town, but helping mafia in the long term.

Also why would the town feel less badly about Cubu turning up green than sharrant? Everyone else seems to have a good indication that he is mafia. Are you trying to protect him?

Does any one else have an opinion on Kush's motives?

Killing is scummy looking to me, but he looked that way last game too.


Okay, so you state the three you want to focus on. Killing would be a reasonable choice, you have pushed for him a little bit earlier. Instead you don't think for yourself and just hop on a bandwagon. I also think saying you're hopping on bandwagon isn't much defense.

I have been adamant about the lurker policy, and defended cubu against kush in this post

No offense to kush but kush's scumteam theory was completely awful. What I see is you coming in and sheeping onto an insubstantial case in order to get a mislynch on me, drazak and (maybe) debears. That scumteam idea is such a weak argument I find it hard to believe a town player would honestly use it. Which leads me to wonder why kush brough it up in the first place, but I'm still unsure of kush because I have a hard time serparating crazy scum things he could have said with crazy town things he always said in previous games.



I said it didn't turn out too great, and guess what, it didn't.

That trio comment was at a time when debears was wierdly into defending you, and in my mind I thought Kush had a reasonable post.

This post seemed very emotional. Could be he is town and he just feels very bad for the mislynch, or he is mafia and is getting flustered with the recent accusations. I am leaning towards the latter.

But onto a different topic.

Why, Thrawn, does it not seem suspicious that you kept on about Sharrant even after he had a very reasonable claim. Looked like to me you were trying to find something to exploit to restart the bandwagon against him.

I don't see the scum motivation in this, since both our bandwagons were town. He is not following the town plan of consolidating our bandwagon, but we never made that plan concrete really.
He didn't believe sharrant case. He has been consistently against lynching lurkers, so that's why he wouldn't vote for cubu.in the

Sorry if my posts last game weren't up to your posting standard kush.

For the record, I might not post consistently at different times, and maybe I'll push agressively against someone, my reasons will usually be good. I'd ask that people use their own logic after reading my posts, look at the evidence provided and use your logic. Last game we had a lot of people not thinking for themselves, I'll be going to bed soon so don't expect another post from me. I'll probably post in the morning, and I think I'll post before tutoring, but I don't think I'll be posting until maybe this time tomorrow again after that.


My thoughts while reading this: "man this guy is going out of his way to defend himself when there's no need to"

And that's a scum trait....so drazak, I'm watching you buddy. I don't see why you'd ask everyone to be fair and "use their own logic" and "look at evidence" when reading your future posts... obviously those things are what everyone is trying to do. It looks a little suspicious that you're already defending criticisms of your posts that haven't even happened yet.

If it's all because kush pissed you off then too bad you should ignore that, he does it from time to time.


Why get worked up over this post by drazak, when he was replying to Kush? He is very capable of defending himself.

@thrawn you say I made a straight up lie and that's not an accusation I take lightly.

if anything it was an exaggeration and not a lie.
I don't want to spend a lot of time discussing my scumteam theories, because while I think they help in looking for cases, they do not constitute a case.
but I don't like being called a liar so here goes.
drazak is connected by saying killing is more suspicious than debears. he says they can't both be mafia so therefore debears isn't mafia. That is the classic mafia defense..defending a teammate by attacking the attacker.
and you have defended debears.
So that was the basis for that comment. Is it a real case against you? no. Is it a lie though? also no.


Uh, saying that drazak and I defended each other is a lie. In fact it's the exact opposite of the truth.


Scum slip? That sentence totally contradicts itself.

Okay, I don't think mafia got lucky in killing a blue.

Looks like other than the Sharrant read, Sonic's biggest read was Atreides-, Debears, and Killing.

All three have had good arguments made against them. Possibly they they thought Sonic might have more info.

Thrawn, you haven't replied to a single post I made about you. Do you have a response to any of my concerns?

Also, was that role block from mafia?

You know, I could see sonic role blocking you. His power also allows him to save someone, if his strongest town read was you, then he would use it on you.

Just read through remedy's filter. Don't see how this guy can be anybody's "biggest read."

Your two main arguments against him.
1 He sheeped on my retarded scumteam notion.
I don't like this read because it seems like the case here is stupidity = scum. Not everyone is as enlightened as you about the uselessness of association cases. Are they bad? Yes I agree with that but I don't think making them is a scumtell.

2 His useless vote for me.
I don't see the scum motivation in this, since both our bandwagons were town. He is not following the town plan of consolidating our bandwagon, but we never made that plan concrete really.
He didn't believe in the sharrant case. He has been consistently against lynching lurkers, so that's why he wouldn't vote for cubu.

The scumteam thing is not about stupidity = scum, it's about him going along with a a dumb idea that will end up lynching at least 2 confirmed town.


I acknowledged an idea, that is all. Nothing ever came of it afterwards.

Of course you know your alignment. Why do you even have to say that.

And his vote for you accomplishes nothing at all. There was absolutely no way you were getting lynched so even if he was town and didn't want to lynch a lurker why wouldn't he pick his scummiest read out of the people that could possibly have been lynched?


I made my case against Kush, that is why I voted for him. I had no one I felt as confident about to vote against. I'm not going to just bandwagon onto someone unless I have good evidence.

He was also absent during all the confusion near vote deadline, and came in after the mislynch talking about how it was dumb. That looks scummy because he wasn't around during the confusion to help town out, yet he is there 9 minutes afterwards talking about how the lynch didn't go well.


Now you're just putting words in my mouth. I never once said it was dumb. I stated the obvious and said it didn't go too well. Big deal? Also I mention in another post what I was doing near lynch time. Read it.

Okay, too move the conversation towards the lurkers, since they haven't been active d2.

My scummiest read is on stutters, mainly because of this post.

Killing or any other lurker is a better lynch than Sharrant at this point for two main reasons (IMO):

1) Sharrant is active. If he is scum it will reveal itself over time, while if we go into lategame with a bunch of lurkers we're boned in lylo.

2)You guys are painting the SK idea as way too scummy imo. Look at Kush's early posts. Self-survival is usually indicative of a power-role or scum. If he's a blue he wouldn't have so obviously painted a target on himself. If he's scum it seems to reason he wouldn't paint such a big target on himself. Given the option between SK and VT, SK makes a hell of a lot more sense.

I don't necessarily agree with that conclusion but it makes sense and he's putting himself out there on that read and gives us even more of substance to hold him accountable for.

Looking at the lurkers:

Drazak: Would like to see some more from him before the lynch. Nowhere near the least active and he has at least thrown out questions. Wouldn't be our best lynch target imo.

KillingTime has been actively lurking. He has 11 posts during D1. He has only one post with any real content. This is similar to his town play in XXVI but his reads in this have all been agreeing with other people while in XXVI his reads were more based on his observations.

Really I'd like to see a lynch on Cubu.

Regardless of if Cubu is scum or town, Cubu needs to die. For anyone who didn't play in NMMXXVI check his filter there (http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=363923&user=153930). 9 posts before he was lynched on day 2. We let him live Day 1 with the hopes his play would improve and it didn't as VT. After we wasted a lynch on him D2 we put ourselves in mylo. We shouldn't let that happen again when we can easily avoid it. Our day 2 lynch candidate will be a much stronger one than our D1 if we're lynching someone active and Cubu has shown no intentions of actually playing.

##Vote Cubu


In this post he mentions three confirmed town. KillingTime I am iffy on, and I'll take a closer look at his posts. I think that if Killing is town though, than this post by Stutters is very scummy.

He even goes as far to say that even if Cubu is town he needs to die. Like really?

Too bad I already gave SDM credit for not JK'ing Sharrant (or Sharky), now it turns out he did :/


Not necessarily. We could have another roleblocker who is town in the ugly prostitute.

That is assuming Thrawn is town. If he was mafia, a town would roleblock him so he couldn't perform a night action.

Why are you defending him with bad logic?

Also this was rethos's first game ever.

Before playing mafia, he would be excited to try it out. Maybe he couldn't get into though.

I'm posting this from my phone. Once I get home I'll attempt to detail my posts more.

But I wanted see what people thoughts were on Stutters.

So you won't be around much until after the d2 lynch? This is looking a bit like an out so he doesn't have to contribute much today and can continue lurking. It could be true, but as someone else said( i apologize, i forget who did and im on my phone) this is the second time you posted soon after being called out.

Disclaimer: I am not done with reading the thread and respective filters

Right now, I have deep suspicions of Remedy. No sure if they will stand, but I think they may.

I'd also be down for lynching Stutters, Killing or Atreides, but all of them are mostly policy about lurking/non-conributing, and less about actual scumreads.
I do think, however, that getting rid of lurkers one way or the other is absolutely necessary looking towards MYLO/LYLO. If there's only 1 or 2 lurkers, that could be easily solved with a vig shot, but we have 3 (4 counting the late rethos), and possibly no Vig at all. Which sucks.

I need to look more into debears, so I'd like to withhold judgement for now, but I'll bring him up if I see something suspicious.

Sorry to be "that guy", but I'll come back to this later.


Dandel, you posted this 28 minutes after I called you out for bad logic. Previous to this you only mentioned me because there was a mistake in someone calling me Regent. You never responded to my question and are instead trying to get the attention off yourself.

Did I hit a nerve? You seem to really want me gone now.

My posts may be shitty and lack content, but i have always been pro-town. I could have easily gone after drazak or Cubu Day 1, but instead I refused to vote on Cubu, and I didn't know what to think on the Drazak situation. That is why I didn't post with 45 minutes remaining day 1. I didn't think i could say anything that would make a difference when Lynch time was so close.

I didn't pick who I accused based on how it makes me look, I picked you because you were the one I was focusing on. I didn't want to let up on you until I could think that you are either town or mafia. At that time I was almost 100% certain that you were scum. Recently my opinion on that has changed, and you are looking a lot more like town.

What I was saying with that cubu vs drazak post is that if I were mafia, wouldn't I have taken the opportunity to go after one of them. I had no reason to believe Cubu was mafia, and with Drazak I thought it could go either way.

remedy, a lot of the points brought up against you boil down to this:

you don't seem to care too much about who gets lynched... most especially when the lynch candidates were mostly all confirmed towns (drazak and the masons)


No, I did care. I pushed for Kush to be voted over Cubu, because I there was at least a few people with cases against him on D1. Cubu had no reason to be voted for D1.

Your case was adequately addressed by Kush. Also one reason why I don't think Kush is scum anymore. I am town, why would Kush frequently defend me if he was scum?

I need an new argument as you both seem equally scum and I need to convince myself one way or the other.

Well, I didn't really have a case against rethos until he flipped out. Since he was replaced Dandel (while a little riled in places) has posted often and does have town motivations behind this. (although is a little spastic with his votes) remedy has a more solid case behind if we ignore the rethos flip out.

What is better about my case? I know there isn't much time left now, but really, Dandel jumped on me half an hour after I called him out on his logic. He even says -

But that might not matter, because the flip could change that easily.


There has been a lot of talk about what will happen if I flip scum, but no one has really mentioned what will happen when I flip town, and you know what? I will be flipping town.
