Hey older peoples - (actually woah I'm pretty sure that other than Palmar, marv and I have been playing the longest of anyone here wtf. maybe acro? grack doesn't count cause he wasn't really playing this whole time)

but anyway older peoples like marv and acro - why is palmar talking so much on day 1? at first I was like wow palmar cares about this game guess he's town, but now i'm just sort of like wtf is going on. do you think he's just super town or what?

Despite having been around, I believe this is the first game I am playing with Palmar. I cohosted Hero and he was fairly active as town on D1... at least active enough to make a cool video and cause scum to get lynched.

He seems involved enough for the moment and get the impression that he is actively analysing the thread. Even if this latest bluehunting stint is stupid.

In case he's scum, he will lose interest in the game, as scum Palmar always does. If he maintains an active interests and keeps directing town, he is most probably town.

Fuck i want a mafia D1 lynch if Palmar is town. He is capable of doing it. He is just calling out wrong ppl.

Ugh - I retract what I said about over-explained town-read. Palmar actually asked for an explanation about it like that.

Yeah... thanks for pointing this out, this actually runs counter to one of my points against Grackeroni. I am going to take another look at my stance because that was the major reason why I decided to tunnel in. Need to re-evaluate, I'm going to unvote for now and I'll be back in a few hours after raid night is over.

and seriously..... reallly.... Do you even read my posts? I pointed this exact thing out in my post. I said that you didn't read the thread closely or didn't filter Palmar because you would have known that my post on Palmar didn't come out of the blue. and then you came back with "Whereas Grack is literally making shit up about me to get me lynched." But now when Marv says it all of a sudden you notice. And people wonder why I've been less than motivated this game.

Grackeroni is an infinitely better lynch than either rayn or Obvious. Obvious isn't playing scared at all which was the overarching theme of his play in Hydra Mafia (even with VE for support).

Acro, I'll check what you said about Nisani when I'm home and have some time later.

Meh I was mostly right. You haven't mentioned anyone else you think is a better lynch.


I'll give you one tip for understanding my play. Don't "read" into my posts what isn't there. I say what I mean to say. In this case, I meant to say that you're a better lynch than rayn or Obvious. If when you say "marv thinks I'm the best lynch in the game" you mean "marv thinks I'm the best lynch out of these 3/16 players" then you would be correct. Because that's what I said.

Like honestly why are you saying that I'm the best lynch out of these 3/16 players rather than just saying who you want to lynch/who is the best lynch. What is the point of that? If that's not you saying who you want to lynch than I have absolutely no idea so far who you want to lynch.


I said it because there were people in the thread at the time discussing those 2 lynches in particular. Go back and check.

Your other point that you don't know who I actually want to lynch is valid. Work in progress I'm afraid.

So do you or do you not want to lynch Grack?

So, you said Grackeroni was likely town earlier. Or at least the case was bad and "Palmar is on the wrong track".

Let me guess - you think I'm soft defending/attacking my scumbuddy so you're voting for him?

No, he has failed to do anything productive and i don't find his answers acceptable anymore.

Nobody is going to vote OO/Oats/Smurf either way whatever i say. And Grack has not dona anythig useful. I would be okay switching into one of those three or Nisani/prplhz, but nobody is going to listen to me anyways so what the hell. Better to trust people i trust are town then.

I want to lynch OO or Oats. OO for reasons i stated earlier in the game and his behaviour after that (don't worry, i'll answer your case when i have more time). Oats for not having a clear train of thought for the whole game. He does another 180 out of the blue. Who can figure out where?

As for the day-vig. I see no scum motivation behind the shot because imo mafia would have shot like anyone else than Grack. Only reason i could think of is if they want to cast doubt on Palmar (assuming Palmar is town) and that's too much WIFOM in my eyes.

I'd imagine both factions would want to take credit for the kill, seeing as I was putting pressure on Grack. Since no one claimed the shot I'm going to assume it's a scum-shot. I don't think any townie would be this stupid, and there is a clear scum motivation to shooting Grack.


Which is?
A townie motivation would be to use this lynch to lynch someone else instead of Grack and cause more discussion bla bla.

Scum motivation would be to cause confusion? I dont know, please elaborate


Grack was the preliminary lynch, rarely does the person put under pressure on day 1 actually end up on the chopping block. I could give you multiple examples of this. There is no proper townie motivation to shoot the dude who gets put under pressure early in the game.


So you didnt think he was scum?
You dont sound like you were gonna push Grack today.

Now who would you lynch after that weird nk?

And yeah with anonymous vig, scum probably shot but thats not really the point.

I would not consider it fair, no. I also see no reason to retract that claim. Why are you bluefishing?

That question is so stupid, just like your claim. Since I think you're town, yet you're playing like an idiot I'm just going to ignore you for the rest of the game since you're clearly not capable of playing well.

I know Palmar is arrogent but what in the world is this. Day 1 is not over. Way overreaction.

Ok so Grack was basically the only thing Palmar pushed day 1 right?
This reads like Palmar wasnt sure/expected himself to find another read. Which isnt inline with his mentality before the dayvig.

So some scummy stuff about Palmar.

I dont see much point in putting down a vote at this time.
Do you?



The thing is, Oats, if Palmar is genuinely your top mafiaread then you need to make a case on him (like this), vote him, and persuade other people to vote for him.

Do you think mafia or town shot Grack? If mafia, and Palmar is mafia, why would his team shoot Palmar's primary push?


Im inclined to think not scum because he looked like becoming mislynch number 1.

[Speculation Incoming]
The reason why it wasnt claimed its cause
1. Dude flipped town, its embarrassing
2. The dayvig can do it again/has other powers

##Vote: Palmar
Marv why arent you sheeping me?

What made you completely change your mind on the vigi shot? To push for Palmar lynch?

Palmar why did you think the vigi-shot was surely from mafia without thinking it out properly? It looks like you wanted the shooter to claim if they are town which would be dumb, as already pointed out, if it's a JOAT and not a one shot vigi.

That's a stupid question.

Okay let me rephrase.

Why didn't you first think about the possibilities why a townie could have shot Grack and instead came out yelling "that's a scum shot 100%"?

Bleh all I know is that this lynch is not going to come easy. Too many scum candidates and too little time.

I do think Palmar's reasoning for why Grack's shot does not make him scum is valid. It really does not make sense to tie yourself to voting for a person and tunneling them, then go on to shoot them. Doesn't make sense.

Acro is a bit of a harder read. I really cannot tell what he is playing right now, so I won't vote for him on D1. Too much confusion to risk a vote there. I'm worried that Marv is his top scum read, yet he only gave superficial reasons as to why Marv is scum. Marv's defense seems in line with him trying to play a better game, plus his stupid mini-tunnel of me feels way too much like Personality for me to be suspicious now.

Smurf still needs to commit himself to actually scum hunting and not bouncing around multiple targets. Right now he's looking most likely to get my vote.

Prp, now that Grack is dead, can you stop beating around the bush and give us actual reasons as to why Acro could be scum? A vote for anything would be nice too.

Interesting. Do you somehow know mafia shot Grack? Because that's how the bolded part reads to me.

No, I said it doesn't make sense that it would be a town shot and no one claimed. Do you want to do some thinking for yourself, or will I have to do it for you?

Except that it does not make sense for scum to shoot Grack over like anyone else. And it makes perfect sense not to claim the shot in any scenario where the shooter's role is something else than a one-shot vigi.

First. There is no third party. Second. Why not shoot some strong town player, let Palmar mislynch Grack=Noone takes Palmar seriously/Palmar gets lynched.

Town shoots Grack= They thought Grack was scum?
Please give me town motivations for killing Grack. I'd love to hear them.

I don't honestly know. Maybe. But i see zero scum motivation in the shot.

Rayn I thought about the shot, made more sense to come from town.
Anyway, I 180 all the time, hehe get used to it

Fair enough. After doing some thinking myself i think it's more likely that you are town because you do those 180's. I think you would be more careful with stuff like that if you were scum.

As for why i want to lynch ObviousOne:

First this, my earlier case on him:

Because it doesn't matter a single bit how he reacts because the case was built on false information. Hell, if I was scum, I would love nothing more than for someone to make a case on me that I could so easily refute just by posting a few quotes from my previous games that wouldn't even be hard to find.

The point of making "cases" isn't to convince the person they are scum. They are to convince everyone else that someone is scum.

Plus, S&B was asking for opinions about his case.

The problem with meta in this prplhz case is that it's the easiest thing in the world to fake. Even the dumbest idiot could probably fake their "town meta" by posting some general advice as their first post.

Other than that part, you are right.


Broken out, preserving the interaction above:

I thought about this sentence for a while. I probably thought about it for too long. It might even be nothing.

I thought about what a Rayn might be implying here, assuming town:
If we emphasize the "don't" and following parenthesis, the implication here is that Rayn is calling out Kei for shutting down a potentially useful avenue of information. Okay, I get that.

I thought about what Rayn might be implying here, assuming mafia:
If we emphasize the "given that you" portion, we get a scum claim.



I don't know Rayn, and I can't reference the only other recent game since it's ongoing, so I want to say it's believe from a town mindset as an accusation against Kei derailing SNB's poorly constructed case. The alternative is a tired mind, ready for sleep, just posting for the sake of posting and literally claiming scum in the thread.

So this interaction took me to Keirathi's filter where I found myself in a land of opinion-less posts and pseudo-random votes. This is not the town voice of Keirathi I remember from the Hydra game we played in together. It reminds me more of the safer and more timid Keirathi of 6 months ago, which was a safe way to play... the only town points in his favor IMO are that he derailed SNB's case for the right reason.

(An addendum for later--) It's demonstrably fact that Keirathi has essentially defended prplhz by attacking SNB's case which says nothing now about them individually but should be remembered in the late stages of the game if it's still pertinent.

Right now based on signal-to-noise ratio of Keirathi's filter, I'm calling him scum. What do you guys think?

Why this post is incredibly scummy?

First OO says i may or may not be scum based on semantics i used in my response to Keirathi. It's irrelevant in the first place because if i answer to Keirathi or ask something about him i call him "you", not "we" . No matter how hard you try to twist the words the post does not turn into a "scum claim".

Next he talks about referencing the other game i'm playing in, which he can't do in the first place. Why in the world bring up something you can't talk about in the first place?

And the read on me ends up into conclusion "may or may not be scum". How convinient.

Then the case on Keirathi. It says that Keirathi has done some maybe scummy stuff that is not better explained. Then he has done some townie stuff. Then he calls Keirathi scum. With no vote on him. Even asking What do you think?

If you think someone is scum you don't ask what do people think about them. You make a case which forces people to say what do they think about it. Notice that after this post he moves to completely different things. If i thought Keirathi was scum i sure would want to know more about him.

In all this post is filled with lots of "if's", "but's" and "may or may not's". There are no conclusions or follow up's. It looks good in filter later (as contributing) but is meant to be dissappeared in the backgrounds. That's what it looks like to me.

If you can't find out why i think Oats & Smurf are scum by reading my filter then it's your fault not mine. Anyways your case is total bullshit.

Whatever your bullshit question was got buried. CBA to find it until I get to a desktop computer. But you're wrong about me being mafia. I don't feel bad about not answering your case because I feel no need to defend myself from you. I'd rather discuss Grack since he is using me as an opportunity to sheep town sentiment on a player who (and you're going to love this) always looks scummy D1 (me!)

Claims he isn't even reading the thread.

OO: What makes Grack more scummy than Cora?

Cora's seemingly trying to get you to settle on a target with his tunnel and I don't have a good handle on his alignment since he could be serious about lynching you (which I disagree with doing). If I take his vote as intent to lynch then he's looking scummy to me for tunneling my town read. Maybe all you have to do is focus a bit more. He said in the following post that you have attacked 6 people, but that's actually stretching it a bit; perhaps that's how you get your information, via attack rather than discourse. If I assume you do it all via attacks then his argument is that you are being town you. If I assume you combine the two I would really like to see some more general discourse (such as asking me this question)

In all honesty this thread has still been ridiculously chaotic. After the tragedy that was Personality Mafia, I'm trying to only post when I have thoughts and cases to make. Right now we are just switching from one lynch target to the other and not really getting anything done besides calling each other scum. As much as the hosts love to troll, I don't think that they made everyone scum. Sorry guys.

To add my thoughts to the ring, I'm still convinced that Rayn is scum. He's following the thread sentiment to the letter. He's just attacking whoever has the heat at the time. Less than 24 hours into the game, he has already attacked the following people:

Prphlz (voted)
Me
Marv
Keir
OO (voted)
Oats

+ Show Spoiler +

That's 40% of the people in the game...


The other problem I have with this is that Rayn is not following through with any of his arguments (besides the OO vote). He's quite content to go after multiple people and not back his sentiments up. It's scummy because he's just trying to look like he is scumhunting, when in reality he is just shitting up the thread and sheeping on whoever is the flavor of the month (or by this thread's standards, flavor of the 10 minutes). That's not town-motivated behavior, it's scummy behavior.

##Vote: Raynpelikoneet

If there's any questions for me I'd love to hear them.


See if you can change his mind with your actions, he might just be a good candidate for tomorrow if this continues.


Whereas Grack is literally making shit up about me to get me lynched.

This is an interesting post. A bit aerlier OO said he thinks i am town. Here he is attacking Grack and is undecided on Cora, when both of them attack a townie (from OO's PoV - me/him) with shitty reasons. It does not make sense that Grack is sure scum but read on Cora is "undecided".

Here is his case against me:

lol see what the hell is this. I thought he was town but nobody is going to listen to me so now I'll just vote for town.

Yeah I'm actually starting to lean scum on Rayn myself. The seed was planted earlier in my second post when I said that it was possible a tired Rayn could have scum slipped. I don't recall a response to that particular sentence I pointed out, but then again I didn't phrase it as a question.

For reference:

Because it doesn't matter a single bit how he reacts because the case was built on false information. Hell, if I was scum, I would love nothing more than for someone to make a case on me that I could so easily refute just by posting a few quotes from my previous games that wouldn't even be hard to find.

The point of making "cases" isn't to convince the person they are scum. They are to convince everyone else that someone is scum.

Anyone seeing what I'm seeing here?
Plus, S&B was asking for opinions about his case.

The problem with meta in this prplhz case is that it's the easiest thing in the world to fake. Even the dumbest idiot could probably fake their "town meta" by posting some general advice as their first post.

Other than that part, you are right.


Broken out, preserving the interaction above:

I thought about this sentence for a while. I probably thought about it for too long. It might even be nothing.

I thought about what a Rayn might be implying here, assuming town:
If we emphasize the "don't" and following parenthesis, the implication here is that Rayn is calling out Kei for shutting down a potentially useful avenue of information. Okay, I get that.

I thought about what Rayn might be implying here, assuming mafia:
If we emphasize the "given that you" portion, we get a scum claim.



I don't know Rayn, and I can't reference the only other recent game since it's ongoing, so I want to say it's believe from a town mindset as an accusation against Kei derailing SNB's poorly constructed case. The alternative is a tired mind, ready for sleep, just posting for the sake of posting and literally claiming scum in the thread.

-snip irrelevant portion-

Moving forward in the filter, I see him having scum reads on me and several other people I would consider town at this point.:

Don't you see thye have disappeared when townies call out other townies and laugh in the background. Man, you should be able to see that.

Who of those guys are mafia?

I'm more null on Nisani but the rest are more town than scummy to me right now. So let's look at what he's brought up against his proposed alternate lynches:

To finish the thought, you're really just defending Grack outright without giving me a proper alternative and I don't like it.

I just gave you some names who are not you.

Oats / Smurf. Why not lynch them?


Get off your ridiculous reasoning and tell us why other than 'go look at my filter, I cba to explain it to you'
If you dont know specifically why or if you cant concisely put down a few reasons, how could we think of these people as scum? (yes it includes me, no thats not the point)


Okay, here is your fucking reasoning:

Oats:
Oats is calling S&B scum for his bad case and Smurf he is leaning town on for equally bad case. Both of the cases are based on same (apparently false/bad) meta-reads. After being called out does a full 180. Has no scum reads other than slightly leaning scum on Smurf (in that 180).

Smurf:
Smurf is leaving out stuff that does not speak in favor of his DI case. Stuff that he should have obviously checked. Does defend the case later on when people call him out on it. Can't be any sort of reaction test (rofl Nisani). Other than that this is all he has done:

Cora, you have essentially one read that you've fleshed out, and that read has met significant resistance with the thread. Why don't you give a read on a different player? I know you are capable of this as town, I saw it in Duel. Hop off your tunnel train for a minute and realize I want something more alignment indicative out of you than this attack on rayn.

Called Cora out. How is he allowed to tell Cora to do something other than go after me when he hasn't done shit other than an scummy case?

Look at the bolded/red sentence above, in particular. He's giving his full reasoning but he's doing it BEGRUDGINGLY. In what game do we begrudgingly give scum reads? That's pretty scummy to me on its own. Not demonstrating a town mindset IMO. The reads themselves are pretty meh. The only possible original thought I see is his stance on Oats but that's not a difficult thing to do given how easy of a target I feel Oats has made himself.

Finally, resignation:

5, count them, five possible targets for today's lynch. That's a whole lot of suspicion for so little build-up. "Let's just lynch anyone!"

How about no.

Why this case is bad and scummy? S&B summed it up pretty well:
1) "the seed was planted" etc - there's no reason to include this in a town case, but scum want to establish "hey guys I'm being consistent". Makes the case implicitly about "I'm town and making this case on my scumread" as much as about actually persuading us his read is scum.
2) one of his key arguments is "he has bad reads / scum reads on people who everyone thinks is town." We all know this is a terrible argument, since what really matters isn't who the reads are on, but whether the reasoning for those reads demonstrates a town mindset. But saying "look who he thought was scum everyone disagrees with him so he must be the scum" makes sense as a scum case, it attracts the attention of those people and makes the case easier to sheep.
3) I also don't really agree with the "begrudging" part, I think when a townie feels hectored he can be plenty begrudging but scum would hide it. But that's less of a reason this case is scummy, and more just a reason I disagree with it.

My thoughts on those:
1) I agree. Also notice that in his post he calls Keirathi as possible scum. Never after that post he questions Keirathi about anything at all or tries to find out if he actually is scum. Fishy? Yes.
2) Agreed.
3) I don't like the "doesn't give out his reads unless asked"-part. Why should i give out all my scumreads unless someone asks them? I already had a case on OO in thread. Why make another one? And the only person who called me out on "reads without reasoning" was Cora. I didn't care to give him those reads because Cora read my filter and the reasoning was right next to those posts he quoted, yet he missed it.

And yes, prplhz is right about me being frustrated being a reason i swithced my vote onto Grack. Me saying who at that time i think is mafia has nothing to do with me being mafia. After that i have changed my mind on Oats (as i said in thread) and prplhz (because imo he had a townie thought process in his defence on me and his Acro-Palmar observation).

And this:

The initial case on Grack was bad, it was based off of his reactions to certain things, which weren't really scummy. He didn't do anything scummy after that. As I said earlier, the only reason people are voting for him is because of Palmar.

Aren't you worried that Palmar is making bad cases and people are just sheeping them? It kinda seems like you think it's a bad thing but you're perfectly fine with it.

Prp is a good lynch IMO.

Why is he setting up another target if he is convinced i am scum, and not pushing the case on me further? Makes no sense.

This is really weird.

I agree.

After i read the thread today, i went through Grack's filter to see if there was any indication of him being blue. I didn't see anything pointing into that direction.

Why smurf over OO? I get Nisani and i agree. I think OO is way more scummy than Smurf (who i think is scummy too).

marv: I understand it could be bad play. I just think it's scummy play. On top of that: Remember when i first posted my case against OO? Nobody commented in any way. Then OO came and said "fuck you, i'm not even going to read your bad case whatever it is". I think he was in fear that somebody actually goes back and sees why he is scummy and starts to question him. He was just trying to brush the case away and basically said "the case is bad, everyone, let's not go back and look at it" without actually saying so. He is trying to hide in shadows without looking like that. Notice also that he is not even trying to push the case on me further, he just agrees with Hapa that "prplhz is a good lynch too". Why not try to convince other players that i am scum if he is so sure of that?

I'm going to reread Smurf later.
