Posts well, I just wish he would post more today. Not as certain about DYH as I am about geript, because I think DYH could be doing more and he isn't.

I don't fully trust my read on WoS either way -- there's been no real counterclaim to his DT power, and he's pressured BH somewhat, but that could also read as throwing softballs for BH to participate with. He's had multiple instances of possible scum slips (calling himself a newbie scum, knowing the number of scum remaining), and his claim was the most painful, laborious, awkward claim that I've ever seen. But someone mentioned that such a horrible claim couldn't have been scummy because scum would do it more carefully so as to look more legit -- but perhaps he was buying time so as to find a breadcrumb? I don't know about this guy, but I just don't like lynching an uncontested blue claim at MYLO/LYLO, whichever we're at.

Super low contribution level -- couldn't see how anybody could see BH as scum, had a really abrupt unvote of WoS after WoS claimed without any real qualms at all (this after putting a case on WoS), voted Mocsta out of nowhere when everyone else was on Ace, pushed for both Wiggles and cosmicomics -- I could see him being scum, but I don't think there's a strong enough case for it on MYLO/LYLO day.

This is what makes me less sure about a layabout scum -- he actually pushed for a BH lynch, but it was out of nowhere and I don't quite follow the logic. What IS interesting here, though, is the fact that this is the first time that the mirror is mentioned. We now know that layabout was hooked with the mirror at this point, but the question becomes: why does layabout want others to think that BH is the mirror? Did layabout know somehow that VE was going to take the Mirror thing into the thread, thus giving layabout a chance to nullify his read of BH while still disassociating himself from him? A lot of WIFOM here.

However, here's a question: how did layabout actually get converted (as was alleged by CC) if he was in a QT with VE on Day 2? It takes two full cycles to convert someone, and you can't be masoned to more than one person at once. So layabout could NOT have been converted, but why act as if he were? I don't understand the motivation for this behavior from any perspective.

Is this a show? Seems like quite the escalation and then they both just drop it out of nowhere:


Also, I don't know why he let Vivax go on for so long looking like he scum-slipped by calling him Yamato. He could have easily solved that crap by just saying "it wasn't a slip, because I'm not Yamato, but I'm not going to entertain any further guesses." Instead he let town spit its wheels forever before finally answering.

One of his biggest posts is a bad argument full of WIFOM for why Ace needed to be lynched.

The reason he's not on the bottom rung is because WoS has called him a Fool, and that's enough for me to not want to lynch him today.

Disproportionate response to BH pushing a lynch (ie, false distancing from other scum):

Buddying:

Sheeps BH after fake distancing, two targets are both town flips:

Crappy reason to vote for GM:

Responds with:

So he switches to a vote where he's not surprised he flipped town? Also note that he's not very comfortable NOT getting the limelight, and yet he's completely disappeared. Also note that this post is full of crap -- "mafia MUST be in here, but it's a hard group to figure out; btw, neither me or Ryu are mafia. But I'm having a hard time piecing information together. ALSO, I want to claim a medic protect because I am super town and scum know it." No drive to figure anything out, just to contribute without actually contributing anything. There is more energy spent trying to look like town, while also an awareness of HOW he looks TO town -- note the self-effacing "he's as invisible as I am." Why is he letting us all know how aware he is of his participation? Is it a proactive defense?


His case on goodkarma, who flipped blue, is based entirely on the fact that he was a hot topic and that many players talked about him. There is literally no comment on GK's actual content, just on the fact that he was talked about by the town. It's like a sheep trying to re-start the herd so he can have something to follow again. And what's with this "boldly" crap? How about "intelligently" or "carefully" or "rationally?" It's a bad argument without substance trying to get people to lynch emotionally.


I am voting Vivax but I want other people to check into his filter FOR me? What the heck is this?

"wiggles was another hot topic for good reason." Why is he framing his reads in terms of how popular it was to talk about them? Also "Hes mafia every game." Isn't that just calling him mafia? Because the rest of this post doesn't look like he's calling him mafia, just warning town to pay attention to him.


"lack of concern in Wiggles which makes me inclined to believe he is suspicious" that is a long train of mitigating phrases, leading to what is literally almost not a read at all.

This is so fake. He called BH town and GK town (after pushing for a "bold" lynch of GK), but the majority of this post is simply trying to look pro-town WAY after the Ace lynch was old news. Fake outrage. The timing of this post is so off for what its content actually is, which is outrage at the town, when the town is already moving onto something else at this point.


This log is full of nothing but them pretty much saying to each other exactly what they say in the thread. Note that they don't ask each other any questions or interact at all. It strikes me as being very staged.


Notice how he put "Town" in red. Subconscious slip. Also, notice how all of his mafia are town (I have the benefit of knowing this for 100 percent, but hopefully I am an easy enough town read at this point for the rest of you for this to be as substantial a point from your perspective).

Wasn't Kenpachi the one trying to boldly lynch GK?

The rest of his filter is complaining about the town being so awful, and him mentioning how awful he is (I haven't read his filter at all lol, I was way off on that guy lol, etc.). This guy looks SCUM.

Has been wrong on literally everyone he's wanted lynched. Not as certain here as I am about Kenpachi. Called CC both 3P and scum, and has framed today's discussion between glurio and layabout when both of them have gone after BH. DP called him scum and then immediately died.

Town thinks, "darn, how did I misread that? Let me go check." Scum goes, "it was his own fault for playing so poorly. BTW, I'm town, and my reasons for lynching him were AWESOME."
DP calls Ryu scum, gets killed. Has not been trying to find scum. Spends tons of times justifying his votes and zero time trying to find scum. I feel more certain about Ryu than I do Kitaman, but not as strongly as I do about Kenpachi.
