Sounds like a good plan.

Explain why you're not following the plan.

Why not? A bunch of people were super-eager to get things started and did wild things without thinking of their reputation. It's a townie circle-jerk until someone proves otherwise.

If you're convinced this easily then I'm not sure I'm going to be too confident in your ability to find scum. Tell me Hapa, is this comment serious? I've seen plenty of mafia games that start out in a joking way and I don't see why it wouldn't be very easy for scum to do so.

Because I made a joke post before it? Yes, I felt like I should contribute after that given the amount of content already posted. I read through the thread after said joke post and found Hapa's posts to be strange. Do you disagree?

His comment seems to suggest a certain sense of seriosity unless my sarcasm detector is malfunctioning. It smells like buddying based on absolutely nothing.

I don't think Hapa is scum based on what you said about him.

I simply wanted to hear your opinion first before I gave mine since you seemed to place value on me sharing mine first while I could see no reason why.

I find the post by hapa suspicious in that it has strong conclusions from very weak argumentation. That he's being so blunt about it and doesn't try to hide it does make me doubt, though.

This is just about what I gathered from the proceedings:
Dr.H (WELP)
Dandel Ion
Mr.CC
Thrawn (admitted to not reading his role PM at the time)

So obviously the comment doesn't apply as much with Thrawn's admission, but I still stick by my stances on Dandel and Mr.CC. I perceive Dandel to be too fearless to be scum, and Dr.H (a vet player who he doesn't know) is a pretty brave target for a joke-bandwagon. Smacks of fearlessness and "not-giving-a-shit" about his image, hence he's town.

Mr.CC just seemed townie with the light-heartedness of his posts. He also made me laugh a couple of times.

Mafia's a simple game really.

Dr. H has been 'cleared' only because he claimed blue, not because of the banter. I agree on your Dandel read; he seems aggressive and willing to take action, but I wouldn't colour him as green as you have. How you can call Mr. CC as anything above null is beyond me. He's barely posted anything.

Also, fwiw, I didn't read my role until after I already commented on your post. I was going to bus you if we turned out to be in a scumteam :<

But I'll see how he plays the day out, in the meantime I'll favour him over the others.


##Unvote
##Vote Artanis

I think you place too much importance on your confrontation. I'm not calling him scum because whilst I found what he said suspicious, I still wonder if it's something he'd say this confidently as scum. Would you consider it more towny if I tunneled him?

If you answered that you thought him to be scum I would have mentioned the reasons for why I think he's town. That's why I asked you if you thought him to be scum.

Since you said you doubt him to be scum I see no reason to mention the reasons for why I think he's town. I still have my reasons for my townread pasted in a document to be posted later if it need be. But I don't see a reason to defend anyone when he's not in danger.

If you're town then just play like you're town and I might or might not change my opinion about you. Discussing my impression of you is not going to be productive. Try to find some useful information on your own instead.

So you're hiding information about why you think Hapa is town (aka town tells), yet you consider him town for giving town tells. Which means that either you think Hapa is town for doing something anti-town, or you're being purposefully anti-town. Please do tell me if I'm missing a third option here because I don't see it.

As for finding useful information on my own; there's precious little to go off in the thread so far other than the post I quoted before. We could talk about Dr.H's blueclaim but I don't see that going in any useful direction, nor all the joke votes that have been thrown around. Hapa's recent post doesn't really give me a lot.

Hapa, why do you consider Cheesecake a town read? Do you have any current scumreads?

I've played 3 or 4 games with him so I have a pretty good feel for how he plays. Admittedly I haven't looked through his latest scumgame (Nomination Mafia, in which he apparently played pretty well), which I need to do some time today. Otherwise, his attitude suggests townie CC.

Ah okay, so people are townie for making you laugh, duly noted.

Tunneling you but not extremely hard, though it isn't necessary as you're getting plenty of pressure from the thread already. His aggression weighs up to this and ranks him at a null, but I'd like to hear him about people that aren't you.

Nothing at first glance, but when we have people like jaybrundage who haven't said anything worthwhile yet there's still plenty of time. I like Hapa and I'm currently not interested in lynching you with your activity level right now. Helvetica is off limits for obvious reasons though I'd like him to chime in as well. Being near-confirmed town doesn't mean you get to sit on your ass and contribute nothing. I'm leaning town on Dandel Ion, and I'm null on thrawn, cheesecake.

You're scum for FoSing me which is something you apparently never do whilst you were happy to vote on someone as a joke earlier in the thread. When you realized this leap in logic, you quickly voted for me despite nothing having changed that could make you go from FoS to an actual vote.

I'm not too sure between jay and Prome currently but Prome just did something that I don't think I would see him doing as mafia. Jay instead is rather lurky that's not good. It makes sense to be scared to post as scum from his perspective.

My top priority remains Artanis as of now, I don't like how he hooked onto a bad argument to vote for me and his start into the game remains scummy.


List 'o questions:
1) What is the rationale behind your Jay policy lynch pre-game?
2) Since when do you FoS players?


1) The only rationale was: I just finished reading the game, had no real scumread and threw down a vote on a guy who didn't post in the game yet before going to uni. Don't think he posted before since the game started.

2) You think someone is scum or not scum for pressuring with a FoS instead of a vote? What is the difference between FoS and a vote except for the function of hammering a vote brings with it? I bet you will try to skip this question.

Feel free to answer this question if you like but even talking about this seems so stupid I will just leave that as optional for you.

Since when? When I feel like pressuring people, problem amigo?

Because it's a massive difference in psychology. A FoS is vastly different from a vote in terms of confidence. A FoS indicates you don't really want to vote them yet, but are suspicious of them. A vote indicates a greater degree of certainty. The fact that you went from a FoS to a vote with nothing happening in between shows that you realized your lapse of logic in the meantime and tried to salvage the situation by voting on me and hoping no one would notice. It's a subconscious thing.

I just checked if you used it before. You did so once, when you were scum., and once when you were town. The difference is, in the scum game you changed your mind an hour and a half in. In the town game, you changed your mind over the course of two days and didn't even end up voting for the guys you FoSed. Your current meta matches up with your scum game, and not your town game.

Oh shit doublepost sorry BH have mercy please please.

Well that makes it more iampy doesn't it. I had to lend iamp's power for this one.

To add something more substantial to this: I'll make a recap of what I found scummy about artanis.

[*] Enters the thread first joking then immediately going serious mode on Hapa.
[*] Posts something about Hapa that actually made him likely town in my eyes and calls it buddying, not giving out townreads.
[*] You can only call it buddying when you think/know the people he gave townreads to are town. In totes, I disliked the whole buddying argument.

I did not read my alignment yet before these points. I also don't consider them anti-town. I entered the thread jokingly, then realized a bunch of people had already posted and people might react negatively to me for it. Regardless of your alignment, you do not want to get lynched so I started to actually read after that. Also, when you post town reads, in my eyes you're buddying up to them. Look look how townie I think you are do you think I'm townie too please say yes

[*] He reacted strongly defensive to a simple FoS and my following posts and didn't actively tried to persuade me that Hapa's actions were scummy.

I'm a defensive player. You were in Fruity Mafia, you saw how much time I spent looking as confirmed as possible. I was town.
[*] When asked about his stance on Hapa he didn't want to commit and I read that as fearful. Why does he ask Hapa questions about something if he doesn't think it's scummy?

I thought it was strange at first, that's why I brought it up. Later, I realized that posting something like that this fearlessly weighs up to the buddying.
[*] He sheeps Hapa's bad argument against me "Oh I didn't see that point before"-style, that looks convenient and not like he sincerely reads me as scum.

That it's a bad argument is your opinion. I think it's a strong one, and I'm not the only one that sees it that way. What a surprise that the person whose being accused things his accusation is poor.

Will post arguments for why I think Hapa is town where Artanis said he saw buddying and also why the way of Artanis attacking that post was scummy when I feel like and when I got enough feedback on Arta.

What are you even saying here?
In the meantime, discussing whether a FoS is a massive difference in psychology like Artanis wants me to is so abysmal I refuse to do that. He confirmed by himself I used that as both alignments and
[*] Bends that to his purposes of calling me scum by noticing irrelevant differences.

Yeah, because those timings are completely irrelevant. They are key differences and show the difference in mindset between the two games. You're showing the mindset you had in the scumgame in this game.

Huh. Me scum for not voting someone but then doing it? That's interesting... Meta sucks when you don't know how to use it.

I'm not too sure between jay and Prome currently but Prome just did something that I don't think I would see him doing as mafia. Jay instead is rather lurky that's not good. It makes sense to be scared to post as scum from his perspective.

My top priority remains Artanis as of now, I don't like how he hooked onto a bad argument to vote for me and his start into the game remains scummy.


List 'o questions:
1) What is the rationale behind your Jay policy lynch pre-game?
2) Since when do you FoS players?


1) The only rationale was: I just finished reading the game, had no real scumread and threw down a vote on a guy who didn't post in the game yet before going to uni. Don't think he posted before since the game started.

2) You think someone is scum or not scum for pressuring with a FoS instead of a vote? What is the difference between FoS and a vote except for the function of hammering a vote brings with it? I bet you will try to skip this question.

Feel free to answer this question if you like but even talking about this seems so stupid I will just leave that as optional for you.

Since when? When I feel like pressuring people, problem amigo?

Because it's a massive difference in psychology. A FoS is vastly different from a vote in terms of confidence. A FoS indicates you don't really want to vote them yet, but are suspicious of them. A vote indicates a greater degree of certainty. The fact that you went from a FoS to a vote with nothing happening in between shows that you realized your lapse of logic in the meantime and tried to salvage the situation by voting on me and hoping no one would notice. It's a subconscious thing.

I just checked if you used it before. You did so once, when you were scum., and once when you were town. The difference is, in the scum game you changed your mind an hour and a half in. In the town game, you changed your mind over the course of two days and didn't even end up voting for the guys you FoSed. Your current meta matches up with your scum game, and not your town game.


When I mentioned the Vivax "FoS" thing, he went through all his games and found all the instances of that in Vivax's meta. That's far too much :effort: for scum. Scum would accept my allegation as 100% true rather than such a specific filter dig.


That's incorrect, I do things that show effort as scum too, I dig up meta and post notes and shit. What we see here is just an effort to ride on an awful points trying to imply I'm scum based on a time difference between a FoS and a vote which is so ridiculous I don't want to discuss the basic flaws of it like Artanis wants me to.

It's not just the time difference, it's that nothing changed between the FoS and the vote yet you changed from a FoS to a vote, which collaborated with your scum game which played out very similarly, yet not with your town game. That you don't grasp this simple concept is beyond me, and using the "it's so dumb I won't even address it" argument is not going to work for you here.

I still have no clue how to read the sudden change.

Nothing at first glance, but when we have people like jaybrundage who haven't said anything worthwhile yet there's still plenty of time. I like Hapa and I'm currently not interested in lynching you with your activity level right now. Helvetica is off limits for obvious reasons though I'd like him to chime in as well. Being near-confirmed town doesn't mean you get to sit on your ass and contribute nothing. I'm leaning town on Dandel Ion, and I'm null on thrawn, cheesecake.


This is Art's last stated opinion on me. So I am interested in what changed for him. I'm also interested in why he thinks he is a better nk target than the good doctor.

I said I wasn't interested in seeing you lynched today because there are better candidates as well as less active ones. I see a much better target in Vivax and more inactive players in Jay for example. That doesn't mean I liked all of your posts today.

I think I'm a better target than the doctor because I'm playing the game and he hasn't made a post in quite some time. If he goes afk, why would he be shot? I even mentioned that he's afking in the post you quoted, surely you can extrapolate the logic from that.

And now I'm really going to play.

Morning.

Jay looks awful. It makes little sense that he'd resign this easily while contributing absolutely nothing. Since there's no vigi possible in any of the setups and we can be pretty sure scum won't shoot him when he isn't scum we'd have this question roaming around town until we decide to lynch him. I want to give Jay one last chance to come up with his own reads before anyone hammers him though. The lynch is going very easily, but it could be a bus so eh.

Regarding Vivax:
I still think the post I made on him regarding the FoS thing is strong, and it's still a cause for concern. However, his posting as of late has been good and that can't be overlooked. I'm not willing to lynch him right now after the interactions he's had with Promethelax especially, in which I'd say the latter didn't look as good. He seems suspicious of everyone, is throwing his votes around and commenting on a lot of things. If he's scum, I should be able to find something other than the nugget I had. I haven't yet. Prome's case on him feels weak.

Regarding his case on me:
He keeps stressing the point about me calling out Hapa on his town reads and calling it buddying. I found it suspicious that he was happy to call people townie for such little reason, which presumed me to believe he was trying to gain favour from people. Furthermore, I hadn't even read my role yet so there was little reason for me to pursue scum agenda there. I didn't even make reads on the guys he called green yet, I just saw that post, had read the posts before and thought "what, how can you say that after this little content" after which I posted the comment I did.

Regarding Helvetica's post:
His vote post is so wishy washy that it's obviously just a pressure vote rather than actually suspecting me. His main argument is that I'm noncommital; I'm always noncommital. I'm an honest person in character and find it difficult to overexaggerate things or try to mislead people, so I don't do those things. I push people as strong as my case is, and my case on Vivax rested on the meta argument I provided before. I don't pretend to be more confident then I am. As for the argument that Prome is playing different from his meta: I haven't digged into it yet. You can't expect me to meta read every single player in the game before making statements about them.

Tl;dr I'm not willing to lynch Vivax anymore until I get more evidence that he is scum and I'm good with a jay lynch unless he suddenly improves strongly. I still want to give him a chance to reply though.

I think Vivax is town now.. At this point, people were suspecting Prome a bit but no one was really questioning me. Given Prome's tunneling on Vivax he could easily have gotten away with continued tunneling on Prome, yet he didn't and changed his opinion, albeit on something retarded.

Jay didn't mention me, no. He didn't even answer the question I asked him. Why would a scum master plan include an unanswered question? He also never discussed me because by the time there was actually some suspicion on me not from you, he already went into resignation mode. All he did until then was answer about whatever was the town's main suspect. He has almost no content in his filter about anything else. I've already commented on the rest of your reasons for calling me scum. As to anyone calling me scum for not being super duper convinced about people: Check my meta. I never am. I'm also not a veteran, I've just been around for a long time. That doesn't mean I've played a lot of games.
Regarding the town PM claim thingy; I made sure to check the OP to see if it's in there before I said anything as I didn't want to cheat.

Just checked out Promethelax' meta. Unfortunately it's inconclusive as the last scum game he's played has been a while ago. In this game, he's sheeped my opinions at the start, also commenting on Hapa calling other people town quickly, though he stepped off of it about as quickly as I did. His interactions seem to be suspicious of everyone, but overly so. Vivax indicated that he didn't like both my, your and Jay's posting. Continuously going on about the order of it feels disgenuine. He calls Vivax scum for not actually wanting to get his scumreads lynched despite the fact that he's been hammering on me all game for a 180 when he asked me to lynch you. I've finally decided that I lean town on that; it feels too ballsy and spontaneous for scum. The rest of Prome's filter focuses nearly entirely on Vivax, calling him scum with nigh every post. Fuck, despite that some things feel off in his filter I can't reconcile this idea with Prome being scum. If he is indeed scum and gets Vivax lynched as green, he'd look terrible and definitely not survive two more lynches. He also looks to be genuinely wanting a Vivax lynch.

With Hapa claiming to be the other named VT, he's obviously town but I already felt that way about him. That leaves Dandel Ion, Thrawn, and Mr. Cheesecake . Dandel Ion seems to be a massive troll that likes posting a bunch of oneliners that mean nothing. In his scum game though he was a lot more serious, as was the case in his first scum game. Even in his accusatory posts as town, he's more jovial than as scum. His current game fits his meta as town.

Thrawn has played a mildly active game at best. In his most recent scum game he got caught on day 1. The other scumgame he played he also had a short 8-page filter in a 200 page game. In this town needs guns, he was more active, though still not as much as others. Thrawn has been more active this game. His hammer of Jay felt premature but I don't think it's a scumtell.
Cheesecake's activity has been depressingly low and his filter is awful. He's doing nothing, but it doesn't line up with both his town and scum meta so it's not alignment revealing. In his godfather scum game he played a very pandering game, trying to stay on everyone's good side. The scum game's a few months back so it could be that he's learned from then. Cheesecake's played a poor game so far. What's weird is how he formulated his reads. First he said he wants to lynch Vivax/Jay/Prome with me as a maybe, then he indicates I'm now his main suspect with Promethelax and Vivax also being good candidates. His hammering on Jay could be a bus, and it's the only serious pressure he's given anyone. Also.

What's changed in these times? You've made a full 180 and you haven't said why. You haven't contributed to town other than telling your reads when prompted, you've been a lot less active than you have in your previous games, and your filter is pretty bad. Given I don't see scum elsewhere Cheesecake is my current top suspect. No reasoning for read changes, and is playing a jovial game which contradicts his recent town game.

Because in the town game of him that I read up on, he didn't play jovial at all, Hapa, but rather played confrontational. In the scum game I linked, he was excited and posted as such. If you have meta on him to suggest differently feel free to share, I've linked mine.

Artanis I would want you to favour a thrawn over a cheesecake lynch, I would also like to add that I didn't like that you spent more time explaining townreads than reasoning over the scumreads.

You started by posting meta arguments about thrawn and then quoted some stuff about CC and rushed to the conclusion of favouring him over thrawn which doesn't make much sense from my perspective.

Based on what you wrote about your scumreads I would have expected you to favour thrawn over CC also considering that you seem to have put more effort into reading thrawn's meta than CC's, and if you put more effort into something then it means you would have had a stronger suspicion of thrawn beforehand, which you didn't so it looks to me like you just dug up some stuff and then decided to vote CC cause you don't really care who of them gets lynched.

Just based on the investment you made into digging up thrawn's meta it would be more logical for you to favour his lynch from a dissonance PoV.

That said, know I'm still watching you and you are my #1 scumread. I also didn't like how you just unlurked to answer a question but don't push for the lynches when you knew I was in the thread.

Hapa asked me to post reads on everyone. My reads were developing as I looked into people. I spent two hours looking through filters. I put more energy into you and Prome than the others after which I wasn't particularly feeling like doing more but I couldn't just post two town reads and keep it at that. I know I'm town, yet I didn't have a strong scumread on anyone anymore after my read on you updated. I hadn't looked much into Dandel, Thrawn or CC much because I was too busy tunneling you and Prome. I initially had a town read on everyone when I made the meta analysis and Thrawn was the last person I analyzed, so I was more thorough with him but didn't find it convincing, so I went back and gave CC another look.

I unlurked because I woke up. I went to bed before the daypost came up.

You seem to think Prome is scum. What other rationale do you have for it?


So is Prom's reasoning that sheeping weak townreads gives strong town vibes.

Artanis I appreciated your last answer frankly I don't think CC is scum I think we should be looking at Dandel, thrawn and Prom today.

Dandel cause I just skimmed the filter and he's been behaving scummy and chaotic regarding jay but actually kept pushing my lynch despite saying that me and jay are dumb and thus scumteam.

His preference of lynch choice is scummy cause it doesn't coincide with what other people thought would be the more likely to be scum, pretty obviously I think it's cause he didn't want to lynch his scumbuddy over me.


Proms comment was a joke, but it calls me a 'town player' which I find weird as fuck.

My vote on Dandel was 100% super serious except the expound part.

Why do you make a post that doesn't mention Dandel at all then vote him without an explanation?

After I read the posts up until that point and went through the filters the first time I didn't have anyone marked as scum or scummy, so I went through your filter again.

Fuck, despite that some things feel off in his filter I can't reconcile this idea with Prome being scum. If he is indeed scum and gets Vivax lynched as green, he'd look terrible and definitely not survive two more lynches. He also looks to be genuinely wanting a Vivax lynch.

With Hapa claiming to be the other named VT, he's obviously town but I already felt that way about him. That leaves Dandel Ion, Thrawn, and Mr. Cheesecake . Dandel Ion seems to be a massive troll that likes posting a bunch of oneliners that mean nothing. In his scum game though he was a lot more serious, as was the case in his first scum game. Even in his accusatory posts as town, he's more jovial than as scum. His current game fits his meta as town.

Thrawn has played a mildly active game at best. In his most recent scum game he got caught on day 1. The other scumgame he played he also had a short 8-page filter in a 200 page game. In this town needs guns, he was more active, though still not as much as others. Thrawn has been more active this game. His hammer of Jay felt premature but I don't think it's a scumtell.
Cheesecake's activity has been depressingly low and his filter is awful. He's doing nothing, but it doesn't line up with both his town and scum meta so it's not alignment revealing. In his godfather scum game he played a very pandering game, trying to stay on everyone's good side. The scum game's a few months back so it could be that he's learned from then. Cheesecake's played a poor game so far. What's weird is how he formulated his reads. First he said he wants to lynch Vivax/Jay/Prome with me as a maybe, then he indicates I'm now his main suspect with Promethelax and Vivax also being good candidates. His hammering on Jay could be a bus, and it's the only serious pressure he's given anyone. Also.

What's changed in these times? You've made a full 180 and you haven't said why. You haven't contributed to town other than telling your reads when prompted, you've been a lot less active than you have in your previous games, and your filter is pretty bad. Given I don't see scum elsewhere Cheesecake is my current top suspect. No reasoning for read changes, and is playing a jovial game which contradicts his recent town game.

##Vote: Mr. Cheesecake


What is Artanis doing with this post?

A) Picking on weak players. This would be myself admittedly, Dandel, and somewhat Thrawn. <--- Scum agenda

I only called one person scum in this post and that's you. I even explicitly said I think Dandel matches his town meta.

B) Says I hammered Jay. What?

I think you need to learn some reading comprehension. I said Thrawn hammered Jay.

C) Plays the "I'm not a vet so I'm not right all the time" card.

I also have the luxury of knowing he is voting for town.

Yes, I'm playing that card because people push me into the role of being a vet when I'm not. Read Hapa's post about it, that's why I brought it up.

You can't throw 3 joke votes down in a game like this. With a scumteam of 2, they can swoop in and force an instant mislynch. In the ensuing chaos it wouldn't be terribly difficult to swing suspicion onto one of the initial voters. However, I don't think any serious townie wouldn't have realized that. At least 1 scum I would imagine has already voted me.

You really think scum would hammer a random vote like that? That's recipe for getting owned the next day.

Can someone tell me in what world what I did would be a good idea for scum to live through two more lynches? And don't give me wifom crap because there's a very good chance Vivax would get lynched regardless of my vote, and I'd come out looking a lot better than I do now.

The reason I decided to hammer Vivax was because my read on him changed from how he posted since my post saying he was town, but it was not long enough ago to make credible. Prome's post was decent and despite saying I had a town read on Vivax now, the initial idea I had about him being scum in the start of the game still nagged at me in my head. It was also somewhat of an OMGUS since Vivax has been at my throat all game, I will admit. But tell me, how does my action make sense as a scum that actually wants to win?

Also, kill anyone that decides to hammer me early. Even if this defence isn't satisfactory I'd like to at least give out some reads before I die.

Also thrawn, your reasons for calling Mr. CC and Dandel Ion town are extremely weak and it makes me suspicious of you. Saying "it's not these guys" implies a degree of certainty for which those things are too easy to fake, especially Dandel's comment. That was just a comment to support fairness in the game which I considered making myself but decided not to. Your post makes me suspicious.

I disagree. There was no way that either hapa or myself would have lynched vivax. And idk why it would have made sense for you to do that as scum. You shouldn't have done it/

If it doesn't make sense for me to do as scum, then think harder goddamnit. It was actually Promethelax' post that convinced me in the end. I still had doubts regarding Vivax but found him likely to be town, then he pushed me some more with a strange post that seemed a bit wishy washy.
Artanis, look at Vivax's interactions with you. Look at the way he has twice now called you his biggest scum read while trying to direct your vote elsewhere. Vivax is scum. It should be more obvious to you than anyone else. Vote with me. Lynch scum. Help town win this game.

He appealed to my emotions hard as fuck. Made me think "fuck, what if he IS scum and he's been playing on my exact thought process all along. What if what I think he's town for is all calculated?" and I thought back to the original point I made about the FoS which sealed the vote.

As for reads, I'll post them later this afternoon. Gotta go to uni in a bit. If you'll all post a link to your latest scumgame and town game it'd make things easier for me as apparently the database isn't always accurate.

Thrawn, I went afk after we lynched him and only bothered to check in if the daypost was up yet. I didn't feel like analysis at the time (something you should be able to sympathize with giving your game) and from when I woke up I didn't have enough time to do analysis until I had to head off. I'm currently in the train.
Can you finally answer the damn questions or do you not give a shit about actually thinking critically about the game.

I figure there's no way you're not going to wifom yourself into lynching me either today or the next so I mind as well get lynched today. Prome will probably die tonight as he's the only one left that gives a shit about this game other than me. Prome, when you catch up, pretend you know I'm green and we'll bounce off reads on the others for a while. Should be home in 4 hours or so.

I defend him because I don't think he is scum and Doc's cries of "hammer right naow!" are not helpful.

I'm done defending Dan though, he can defend himself. If he cares to. You guys can lynch him, I will not be voting him though.


And Promethelax, what the fuck is this? The lack of concern for someone lynching one of your town-reads is unlike anything I've seen from you as town.


I'm done defending Dan when he does nothing to defend himself. I have stated that he is town, I have stated that Vivax is scum. I have said I'm opposed to the Dan lynch and approve of a vivax lynch. That was all I needed in the thread and that was what the thread got.

And when he does look at it he starting his lurking marathon. If you look at Normal Mini IV Iamp called out thrawn on it. And lo and behold thrawn was scum.

Jay's second scumread was Dandel. He stops suspecting Vivax, says nothing about Dandel and joins the bus on Thrawn

But cheese, most of the posts you quoted in your analysis there are from Day 1, yet you went from calling half the thread more suspicious than him to calling him more suspicious than the person that hammered a townie, which you found a very compelling argument just a bit ago. Do you feel the new posts warrant this high level of suspicion or were you just too lazy to read properly before?

Or, the third option could be that you realized after Prome's post that hammering me was going to be more difficult than you thought and you know you need two mislynches, killing Dandel today, shooting Prome at night then convincing Thrawn to lynch me wouldn't be a bad plan for scum.

No offense, but if you don't have the time to put in more effort than you really shouldn't be playing.

I haven't done much this cycle because I don't see anyone but Prome giving a shit or willing to think about things critically, just taking everything at face value, so it makes me not want to bother.

Dandel, why did you have a town read on me all game then suddenly completely 180 after I lynched Vivax and now you're suddenly certain? You defended me on the day leading up to Vivax and pressured Thrawn for pressuring me for not hammering Jay yet this one action which no one can explain as sensible for scum to do makes you certain of me being scum?

So my grand master plan as scum when I was only really suspected by Vivax was to hammer him instantly so I could use the strategy of it being so dumb to do as scum that I can't be scum rather than just playing the game out from the decent position I was in.
Makes perfect sense.

That people saw sense doesn't mean that it was to be expected. From a scum point of view it's a massive risk with a high likeliness of just getting lynched the next day, whereas I had a fine position in town up until that point. IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE.

Agreed, Hapa. My hammer of Vivax was bad and I know it, but I made the decision in an instant. It went exactly as I described ingame.

Also Thrawn, I don't think you were being an ass, I just don't think you were invested in the game up until D3 and didn't bother reading the game properly until Prome motivated you to do so. It was very frustrating playing with you, Cheese and Dandel when you really seem to put in no effort in your posts for the longest time, and it works very demotivating.

Also Thrawn, I don't think you were being an ass, I just don't think you were invested in the game up until D3 and didn't bother reading the game properly until Prome motivated you to do so. It was very frustrating playing with you, Cheese and Dandel when you really seem to put in no effort in your posts for the longest time, and it works very demotivating.


hmm. D1 my play wasn't great, but I did end up with correct reads. (changing my read on prom from scum to town, and jay being scum) D2 I was wanting either an artanis or a dandel lynch, and I went to sleep and woke up to find that vivax had been lynched. had i been there I would have argued strongly against the lynch. so i'm not sure what I could have done to be more useful in D2 aside from not passing out for 12+ hours. my d3 start was.... maybe not ideal from your perspective, but I was really just trying to see if you were scum or not. i sorta did the same thing with dandel during d2... be extremely uncooperative with a person who is accusing or questioning me, and then judge their alignment based off of their reaction. you and dandel reacted completely differently... in d2 when I was an ass to dandel, he shut up and didn't question me further. in d3 he went crazy. but you hung in there despite me being extremely annoying which is what caused me to change my reads d3

Well, just reading the thread and getting reads off that is easy, actually doing analysis on players and posting it and trying to convince others, using meta, etc. is something else and it's not something you bothered with. When I did do so and people barely/didn't respond to it and still happily voted for me, it doesn't particularly make the game very fun.

Artanis, do you know how many times you have died in the OP in TL Mafia games? I dont. That's why you should just the end of the world game.

Analysis first. There is no end of the world until a comprehensive analysis of this game has been written.
