Wavering back and forth on whether bodyguards should be outed. We have possible medics, possible jacks who could act as medics, and toad's sheriff power. Even if scum install two scum bodyguards, they can't be guaranteed to hit all three targets that would know the identity of the bodyguards. Moreover, if they fail to kill toad, there's the chance he masons someone tomorrow and is comfortable giving out the identities of the bodyguards to THAT player, and then killing FT/toad/sandro still doesn't hide the identities of the bodyguards if both are scum. Just seems like "all-in" doesn't even describe how risky a play 2 scum bodyguards would be, because there's a decent chance you give up half your team for a SHOT at killing 3 players on N1. That said, off the top of my head I don't see a ton of downside in giving out the names, because we hit mafia on D1 and protective roles could just as easily screw up mafia's ability to take out town bodyguards, except for Toad's jail. Just as a side note, we're also almost guaranteed to out a mafia later in the game because of the mafia mason. I found it incredibly unlikely that you'd hold your mason power D1 if you/sand were scum Toad, and I also find it incredibly unlikely that ANY mason would hold that power. So it's likely that SOMEONE was contacted by the mafia mason during D1. I don't think we need to force mason claims right now, but I remember mad men having some mafia masons get caught just because of their roles, and it's bound to happen here as well. Assuming we're already zeroing in on a list of a few players for tomorrow's lynch, if any of them masoned someone D1, the masonee should go ahead and out the mason if the masonee shares the general suspicion of that player. /unrelatedspeculationoff | ||

There are a couple compartmentalized discussions going on right now, but the mason bit is something I don't think should get left behind while these other things are happening.Austin, I already outed Grush as mason. Are people reading my filter? Your outing Grush as a mason does not mean we only have 2 masons, however. It's entirely possible that we had more than 2 people masoned on D1 (between regular masons OR the mason ability of a jack), and the possible-non-you masonees need to be considering who masoned them and what went on in chat. More just something that I don't want to get lost, I was writing that post during the time Sandroba posted, and it looks a little more unnecessary that it did when we'd gone pages without bringing up you/grush/masons in general and didn't want that to get lost. | ||

Here is a kitten We/FiveTouch lynched scum D1. That is good. That is fantastic. We have some low/no-activity players, that is not good (and I've been one of them the last 24 hours). But that's also relatively normal for a large game. We're in a good position. All of half the accusations have become super negative, and people are getting sucked in to responding to negativity with negativity. Be the kitten instead. The kitten is not negative. If you're just SUSPICIOUS of someone, or less-sure than others about that person's townieness, that's fine. That's probably helpful, to just bring it up and challenge things. But if all you have is a suspicion, and you think it nearly impossible to lynch a person today (I'm thinking mainly Axle --> Toad here), watch that person, continue building your suspicion or let it drop, and eventually make a case. Everyone should know that Toad isn't confirmed, but he's neither confirmed town nor confirmed scum. Him not being confirmed isn't useful information, and while suspicion can be helpful it's NOT if you gum up the thread with it and it never gets anywhere. Wait, watch what he does, watch what others do, and if your suspicion turns into a legit scumread, make a case. Please? ANNUL If you don't want to waste energy defending yourself, fine. That's on you. But do you actually buy into the idea that a mafioso probably ran for mayor yesterday? Do you buy into BC balancing the game in terms of giving scum a solid vet?

That's the entirety of those votes. Within a span of 15 minutes, we had 4 people vote for a double lynch without ever having mentioned the idea beforehand. One of those guys also voted for annul without ever mentioned him beforehand. I'm not as caught up on specific people or mini-threads that are going on to want to comment on that stuff. I thought Gonzaw was town D1. I'll reread him. Bugs I was worried about you for a while, but (VAGUE STATEMENT ALERT) I've found your posts today to be NOT getting as caught up in some of the sideshow and more towards moving in on scumreads of yours, which really says town to me when the thread has gotten kind of bogged down. But despite not being caught up, there's stuff that we're missing because people are zeroing in on a certain read and just going crazy. LOOK AT ALL THOSE NINJAVOTES. The first 4 in a tiny time period. Smells to me like there could be a nervous scum in there who threw his vote in with the rest of the pile. I don't even care that it's just votes for double lynches, I don't like that people are voting for that without seeming to give it any thought at all. Do they have two candidates they want lynched? Do they think they will? Do they think a double lynch will always be useful? Are they certain FT is town, and so want as many lynches in while we've got bonus mayoral votes? We don't know! We have no idea why some of the double lynch votes are coming in. And that's no bueno. | ||

A while later I said something specific about the annul wagon The double Lynch seemed self evident. I pointed out when it would happen which is the following day. I had considered at some stage if delaying it one day might better as the reads get better out there However consecutive double Lynches D3 andD4 looked fairly reasonable and it easier to slow down by going D3 D5, if you find you need the time than to speed up. It just looked right? But I couldn't find your actual thoughts on doubly lynching anywhere earlier on in your filter. You asked about it in relation to the mayor's votes, but I didn't see particularly thoughts on whether we should/shouldn't double lynch. I'm less concerned with when it would occur if we voted for it, which anyone can find, and more concerned with WHY people voted for it. Do you think a double lynch is ALWAYS good for town? Why so? If not, why is it good for THIS town in this situation? It's stuff like that. | ||

So I don't know how much we can speculate about the decision making of the mafia faction.yeah that's kind of what I'm getting at as well and the reason I asked palmar about it. I just don't see a reason to sub in bodyguards if mafia comes to the conclusion "well, can't shoot that" unless of course for confusion. Especially with Palmar saying he'll out the BGs shortly before deadline they can't be afraid of not being able to find the bodyguards in time. Though you two guys ending up being bodyguards is rather funny. I think there's SOME value in doing a 1:1 split. All the assumptions during the night were that either mafia would go all in on you guys, with 2 mafia BGs, or would let it go and have two townies. The fact that nobody was really talking about 1:1 means that maybe it's just some plan to force people to think that both are the same alignment, and either keep someone alive for a day or two that might have been in trouble otherwise (oats) or perhaps keep someone alive that has an important role for them (jack? gf? this reasoning seems less likely but I guess it's a possibility, and I don't see either of those two being made gf unless they were incredibly worried about a check on oats as the day went on). | ||

I want to help what little I can before then Gonzaw was townie to me earlier, but do need to reread in light of all this suspicion, and also I'm still working off the assumption that either they ran a serious candidate or I had mafia voters on me (IF stutters is town, which I'm still skeptical about). I'm not sure how "questionable nks" factor into whether we double lynch or not. Does that actually tie in to a double lynch for you? What reason is there to not double lynch? Uncertainty that we have two great targets, a discussion about whether we can more easily out hiding mafioso by single lynching or double (I've never actually had a double lynch game, and I wonder whether a double lynch brings scum out of the woodwork more or allows them to hide/comment on secondary targets/Ihavenoideawhatbutit'ssomethingtothinkabout). Perhaps there's no good reason not to, but look at it this way - do you find it completely fine that 4 people within 15 minutes voted double lynch without ever mentioning it before that point? Do you think it is likely that one of those is mafia jumping on the double lynch train to blend in? Whether or not a double lynch is a good idea, i find it REALLY odd that votes came in like that, all ninja, and it's more than worth asking questions about. Also, as to us having a "scummy annul," you had made NO mention of him at all before you voted for him. The rest of us can't know whether you found him scummy for your own reasons, for reasons someone else brought up, whether you're just jumping on a wagon...nothing. You call him scummy, but at the time you voted him you had never mentioned the guy. | ||

If Oats is town: There is a roughly 1/10 chance of Oatsmaster being randomly selected as bodyguard. If Oats is mafia: Is there a greater than 1/10 chance that Oatsmaster is put in as bodyguard? I would contend yes. If that's the case, scumoats as a BG gives him a little bit of cover when he was under pressure D1 and would probably be under pressure D2. Mafia risks outing scum BGs ONLY if they want to kill FT/Toad before the bodyguards have been outed as mafia, and they gain some towncred for the mafia BGs so long as those two are alive. I don't see a lot of downside to scum BGs, or a scum BG, in that case. If your bodyguards live, that's a day or two holding onto 2 KP, and maybe you think being a BG gives them a better chance to survive than not-BG. If town still kills them, well, by installing mafia BG(s), you made it easier to shoot the elected folk. Regardless of any other strategy involved, installing mafia BG(s) just makes it easier to get at the officials, whether they out the BGs or not. | ||

Yes, this is how I interpret it to, and you worded quite well. If, for example, mafia consider they can't save Oatsmaster from the lynch because the mayor who just lynched mafia wants him dead, mafia may as well use the opportunity to get rid of a bodyguard for free. Of course this doesn't have to be the case, but it's extremely plausible. I'll do a more substantive read this evening, but a quick check has him on BOTH the mass ninja voting group that I'm worried about AND voting for me as mayor D1 once things shifted towards FT. Granted, FT wanted to lynch him and I was more skeptical, so I don't think that's terribly strong. Need to see what I'd already said about him at the time I voted. But...I had two votes, FT had zero. Toad and FT, my voters, moved off me and over to FT, along with two others. Now 4 FT votes and 0 me votes. Djodref and oatsmaster then voted me, not right after the swap but within like 6 hoursish. Djo flipped town. I'm still pretty convinced there was scum on me. The timing on Oats's me-vote, on a quick check, fits the timing where people suddently move to FT and then I pick up a couple votes. It's just not as strong as with other players because of FT also wanting to lynch oats. The voting just doesn't make me feel good about things. I still disagree about exactly how contradictory his vote was with the lurker stuff, but nothing really looks GOOD for townoats, off the top of my head. | ||

There are 4 mafia remaining. Only 4. If you honestly think Toad/Gonzaw/Mocsta/Yamato are mafia, that means we have 8000000 inactive/lurky townies. If you honestly think Toad/Gonzaw/Mocsta/Yamato are mafia, that means you think that a lot of the players you think are town are SERIOUSLY wrong about some reads that they all share. It may be the case, but it's very unlikely. I have played with you in a couple games. I will assume you have reasons for doing whatever it is you're trying to do this game, whether scummy or townie reasons. But right now, you are flying off the handle at so many different people that I have more or less stopped reading your posts. Others have stopped reading your posts. If whatever you are trying to do involves "post good analysis that will be taken seriously" then you are shooting yourself in the foot. If not, carry on. I'll just ask, do you honestly believe that the 4 people you have accused within the last...36 hours or so are scum? Do you believe that's a team, or just those people are scummy and you might be wrong about one or two? Do you actually believe we have NO scum in chezinu/annul/stutters/BKE/grush/clarity/fuba (that's roughly my list of inactive or lurky players)? | ||

(2) how much of those cases/suspicions on you are driven by us having a certain number of scum vets?

Even if you take away the "as scum", how is being wanting to be elected as mayor a scumtell? I do not interpret that post as a scumslip at all. I agree with the sentiment that it is likely scum had someone running for mayor. I temper that by being almost entirely sure they either had someone(s) running for mayor OR pushed a candidate that wasn't going to lynch scum. It would be a bit ridiculous for them to just let prplhz die and do nothing, unless they thought his last minute change of heart would be enough - where he came back, voted FT, etc. A lot of people agree with that sentiment. It's not scummy to assume that scum tried to do something in the election. What you have done though is taken that expressing that sentiment somehow is a slip and makes you scum. It is not that wanting to be elected as mayor is a scumtell. It is that scum SHOULD have been trying to do SOMETHING with the lynch. A person who (1) did not run for mayor and (2) voted for someone who lynched scum is, at the very least, LESS LIKELY to be scum than someone who ran for mayor, or voted for someone who didn't want to lynch prplhz. yamato didn't run for mayor in the sense that he tried to get any sort of control over the election. yamato spent all of EIGHT minutes voting for himself, before moving his vote to FT. UNLESS the time period of his vote was the time period where FT seemed particularly interested in Oats (as I remember D1, there was a time where he was talking more about Oats than about prplhz), it is unlikely that scumyamato would vote for FiveTouch and run the risk of having prplhz lynched. You are just misinterpreting that "wanting to run be elected as mayor" is NOT a scumtell. I don't think anybody is saying that conclusively. More that scum should have been trying to do SOMETHING to get control over the lynch or get a townie lynched instead of prplhz, outside of the really paranoid idea that FiveTouch came right out the gate bussing hard. | ||

Most, if not the whole scum team reacted to something really dangerous in the last pages. I think I'll go for some Ice fishing in Greenland. I do think that I'm not doing enough this game, but I can't address that right this minute. For now, I'm trying to make myself useful in finding things that stick out, and perhaps do a mediocre job of trying to get everyone to keep the thread legible and slightly more focused. | ||

Specifically, I can't reconcile why Chezinu would not vote for me or you when he claimed to have an interest in lynching prplhz. That's literally the only reason I have him down as town-he wanted to kill prplhz. However, his last minute vote switch from himself to austin/gonzaw seemed as if he wanted to accomplish something with it. Toad had 4 votes and gonzaw/austin had 3 each. Do you think it's possible that scum were trying to get someone other than Toad into that position? I believe at the time it was known that Toad was a mason, correct? I believe him when he says that he is busy due to school, but unlike last game, he has no reads that I can really recall. His only read on prplhz was based on his rule. I assumed Chezinu was just dicking around. I think I had explicitly stated that I was cool with sheriff Toad, and was ready to swap my vote if needed. Toad was known to be a mason at that point. Got nothing much to base it on, and I may not have been explicit in thread as I was in my own head (which might make scum think they could have shifted things more than they could have, except last-minute), but I read it as Chez just...doing Chez stuff. | ||

You sure you're not misinterpreting who he was talking about? | ||
