I'd encourage everyone to re-examine TestSubject with the following two questions in mind: 1) Is TestSubject looking for scum? 2) Has TestSubject done anything which is far more likely from town than scum? My answers to these questions were no and no. If you disagree I'd love to discuss it, but only with people who've actually put in the work and reread him recently. | ||

 One question: Night two, scum *withholds* KP to frame up me or whoever they thought you'd roleblock for the lack of KP, town vig Vivax shoots RO. Why is this implausible? | ||

With the context above, the RB (on Aqua vs JJ/Vivax) makes no sense; but Aqua continual urge to justify the RB makes me feel uneasy. If I was town, I would have no idea why I was RB'd.. and would leave it alone as it is all WIFOM.. Aqua instead continues to flesh this out (e.g. the post I am responding to). Layabout has been screaming non-stop for my lynch for the last two days based solely on that roleblock. It's also perhaps the biggest thing in this game that doesn't make a blind bit of sense and might solve the game. So no, I'm not "leaving it alone". | ||

1) If the only explanation for the observed events was that Vivax was scum why would scum do it in the first place? Answer: Should have been obvious. If JJ had actually done a JK that would have explained the lack of scum KP, which perfectly explains why they didn't roleblock him (which has been mentioned before). Fortuitous in hindsight. I think this was mentioned by JJ but it took me a while to get it through my head. 2) Vivax claimed vigilante Night 1 and scum would have had to "use" their roleblock on him to explain his lack of KP. Answer: Implies a fair bit of planning in advance but I suppose I can see it. Roleblock night 1 is a bit of a crapshoot 3) I had a townread on Vivax independent of vigilante claim. Answer: I've been wrong before and will likely be wrong again. Which leaves the question of "would scum really shoot themselves with their own KP?". I have doubts but it's the kind of plan Vivax and Chezinu would come up with. ##Vote: Vivax | ||

I said that I did have doubts, and then gave my answers to all of them, for two purposes: 1) to make my thought process transparent which I think is a good policy 2) in case anyone else was stuck on the same points, my explanation might help them get past those points | ||

Scum knew I wasn't going to be RBd, so I don't know what happened to their shot, they might have framed me by withholding KP knowing I would shoot, which is now working just fine. ... The trouble is that scum must have thought JungleJorge would JK someone and so the lack of scum KP would be blamed on that. It would be impossible to know even after the JK'd player was flipped that scum KP hadn't been lost by a shot either on or from the JK target. So this plan from scum wouldn't actually accomplish anything. | ||

Feeling a lot better about PR balance with Vivax scum after that claim. I wouldn't have though an additional JOAT would be required for balance personally, but I suppose it's possible (scum might need something we haven't seen yet as well, though). | ||

Even more disappointed I couldn't push the TS lynch through. That's my responsibility in the end, I suppose, but I definitely felt nobody really read it (until maybe WoS just before his lynch). At least I was a NK for mafia and not just collateral damage to arsonist/hatter :/ Definitely sticking to minis for the future, this was not an enjoyable experience (too much thread and too many lurkers). | ||

The first several days I played exactly as I would as town and when I was attacking your case I was doing it sincerely. I really did think you didn't have enough to go on. For the record, when I wrote that case I was as convinced (if not more) that you were scum as I have ever been about anyone else in a game of mafia. You were just not assertive, at all. I appreciate you said something about finding scum by intensive conversation with people - as far as I could tell you weren't doing that either, you'd just done nothing for four days. Obviously your view and my view of your play differ rather a lot. Unfortunately the only real way I had to convince anyone was to say "go read his filter". And nobody could be bothered. | ||
