Fine. My town read is on TheChronicler. He's either new to the game or a longtime vet fucking with us. In the former case, a noob scum would not be proposing some shitty plan like that. In the latter, he was gauging reactions and hoping to get scum to bite. Also, not a scumplay.
It's not a very useful town read, though, because I don't want to vote for him precisely because his plan was terrible. huh like, how random is this? I mean, i can give or take the logic, but did you really need to explain your useless town read right then?
No. I didn't think I did. Hence why I didn't at first. When asked for it, I figured it couldn't do much harm either.

His town meta has nothing to do with being a strong townie, and everything to do with his attitude towards the game. As town he is carefree and says whatever the fuck he feels like. As scum, he's careful, reserved, and can get defensive/apologize when people call something he says or does bad.
Nobody has called stuff he says or does bad yet. Lets start! Oh wait, I just did.

Thank you for pointing out what I do and don't want to do. What I don't want to do is plough through dozens of pages of old games to figure out your town meta, when I am not feeling you're town simply based on how you're playing this game. I obviously got your meta wrong and Keirathi has updated me on it (not sure where I got the idea it was constructive... I could've sworn someone in this thread said so), but I still fail to see how your playstyle is contributing to a townie atmosphere, scumhunting, or even putting forward a decent campaign for how to get a party in the minigames. That does not read like a town player to me.

@Clarity
I give my thoughts on what we are doing (Electing a party leader, something we need TOWN reads for), and I give my reads on whom I believe are town right now. Are they based on little info? Yes. Can they change with newer/better info? Yes, but since I agree with what they've said so far, I haven't had a reason to color them red right now.
As for the quirp about not scumhunting while scumhunting, that's not what I said. I said, while the focus is on electing a mayor, we should at least try to elect a town. As I believe winning events is crucial to winning the game (almost as much as a lynch, since it is in place of one afaik.) Electing people I believe to be town and having them bring people I also believe to be town makes for a high chance of success. What's not to get?
Let me phrase the accusation in a question: what is it that makes you lean town on Marv?

I dunno. I never consider Kita serious in the first place. I liked his posts this game, but then I kinda forgot about him. If he were to make an impact on the game then I could certainly see him as a serious contender. However he is also a risky candidate, because I don't find him easy to read at all.

As I was on the way to the supermarket, I thought of something that might be worth considering. I know this is a greymist game and aperture mafia was hardly about aperture at all, but I, at least, am not the goddamned batman or any kind of planar dragon, so from my point of view the theme is more serious this time around.
If you agree that the theme could be serious, consider that the first mission in Chrono Trigger is also in a church. The playable characters are Crono, Lucca and Frog. Of these, I feel Frog is the most important, lorewise, in this mission. I don't think an outright claim is in order, but it might be worth considering, if you're one of these chars, in particular Frog, and running for the campaign, to make a more serious go at becoming the party leader.
Frog, of all the characters, seems like he would wield the most influence in favour of town in the first mission of Chrono Trigger, assuming lore is an important aspect of this game.

I don't think you're obvious town at all. In my first game I rolled scum (GoT mafia). The first thing Chaoser (experienced player on the scumteam) did, was coach us noobs (there were actually three of us) on what kind of things to say.
I don't find it in any way weird that this could happen in this game as well... and while I, personally, would not coach noobie scum to play the noobie card quite so openly, I could definitely imagine some players in this game advise that playstyle. It is rather easy to pull off and has everybody fooled off the bat.
+ Show Spoiler +
Sidetrack: in GoT mafia, Chaoser's coaching/plan backfired horribly and it was a miracle that we managed to talk our way out of the trainwreck that was the first few hours.
Your recent posts have been better, but I don't have you labeled green yet, let alone obviously green.

Technically you're an easy target too, but I still think you're scum. The new and fluffy will have to die as well. We don't need complications in the end game. Excellent, more wanting to kill people for reasons that aren't that they are scum. New and fluffy != scum (to use your construction) and we want to kill scum, dear. Anything else? No point killing scum if you can't kill Lavos What's that got to do with being new and fluffy? New and fluffy are harder to read and likely to make mistakes. If they prove themselves to be town and competent somehow: Wonderful. However if they fail to do that they need to go down before the end game. So far I don't ever see the dinosaur changing and so he's on my needs to die list. Before you call me an easy target again I am including myself in the needs to die before end game list since I'm smurfing. fuck i was really happy that i was gonna get to play a themed game without drazerk in it but no

Hokay so
I just finished reading this massive thread
I also have yet to vote.
I am thus a swing voter and demand pandering.
As far as I can tell, there are three "real" campaigns (real meaning the candidate actually intends to get elected) - Sandroba, Syllogism, and Toad.
All three campaigns are based around the fundamental premise "i'm a vet, i'm town, i have good reads, and i'm self confident enough to take responsibility for my actions."
Unless I've missed something, that's pretty much 100% of syllogism's campaign.
Sandroba has his "get some noobs semi confirmed" thing
Toad says he'll talk a lot
Out of those, I gotta say Sandroba's got the lead on talking points, so I have questions for the other two:
Syllogism, it's been a pretty long time since you started your campaign. You said you weren't going to lock yourself in to your party or whatever early, but do you have anything more for us by now? Or is it 100% that you're running because you know you're town and you're still not sure of Sandroba?
Toad, why do you need to be the party leader to do that stuff you were saying you would do about getting people to talk about reads, and putting yourself under scrutiny so we get a better read on you? Shouldn't you be doing all that anyway, and why is it a campaign point? Mine name is Glenn...Cyrus' hopes and dreams...and now the Masamune, forthwith I shall slay Magus and restore honor! There is yet time to aid me on my quest. Elect me your party leader!
Ok. This roleclaim was stupid. Which part of "don't roleclaim" did you not get when I said that.
I don't believe scum would claim Frog... and I find this play far too ballsy for a noob 3rd party, making this guy an actual town Frog.
Sandro, Syllo, Toad: would you take this guy along on a quest?

I was on my way to bed. But I can help you with this one. It's this thing called logic.
Keirathi's explanation for CJ being townie based on his first post was that CJ had a low influence value. This implies that CJ would know his influence value. I definitely have no clue about my own influence value (other than what might be given by role). The OP states they are hidden. So Keirathi was, insofar as I knew, making a rather dubious claim. My bullshit detector went off and I made a post calling his post bullshit.
Is my post intrinsically townie? Hell no. But I don't believe in letting bullshit bad logic stand. Keirathi explained himself adequately, implying that he had some more information than I do about his influence value.

Strongly disagree with your analysis on iamperfection. His town meta involves plenty of those spammy one-liners. He's someone I'd strongly consider as a D1 option since his scum/town meta is pretty distinguishable. His play is leaning towards his townie side for sure right now.
I do agree with your assessment on kush, but for different reasons though. He's said that he doesn't care about who gets voted in for leader, which is pretty questionable. He also posted early that he was lost, confused, and had no reads. Then recently, he seems pretty adamant about lynching nl_Clarity.
Mind explaining this a bit better? I am 100% in agreement with Kita about iamperfection.

You are playing absolutely without a town agenda. In addition there is some promise for future explanation for your play. The current, likely explanation is that you're scum playing with a scum agenda. Until you start playing with the goal of killing scum and/or explain yourself, then yes you are effectively useless. I play to win. You cannot win without an end game plan. I gave no promise of explanations for my play (Nor will I ever) but an explanation to my role. Perhaps you should read the conversation before you speak. Honestly you're moving up on the kill list rather quickly... you're awfully patronising for someone who is clearly a weak player. ^this made me lol. I feel really sick. Like really sick, My symptoms include sore throat, constant shivers, and a fever. What I most regret is I made this really sick breadcrumb saying I was Cyrus and now I won't get to use it. ##Nirvana Strike: Marvellosity
Kush, why would you do this? Do you think Marv is scum?
Also, if you are feeling terrible, you could probably ask to be replaced out and make VE a very happy guy, rather than ninja striking someone randomly in the middle of D1. You're not Drazerk.
