Going for a quick re-read of the past half day after I post this since I've been tabbing out to catch what I could during down time. First impressions: I saw that Oats is/was under some suspicion (just going from memory, don't recall if it was talked out or not) but Oats is Oats; he's a bit all over the place but I don't see the same intent to shut things down that someone mentioned earlier. He was just as loud and all-over in RED. Null still. RO seems to want to be more helpful than I remember him being as scum in LX, not feeling what you guys that are suspicious of him are feeling there, either. Got my eye on Rayn at the moment. His style was spammy but usually constructive (at least in telling us what he was thinking) and I've got none of that after the first couple pages of his filter. Ten one-liners in a row or something, doesn't match up to his standard attacking pattern from RED. The attacks there were thought-out, here they mostly look like casual accusations perhaps fishing for reactions?

Other stuff: Most of the chat was about planning how to set up the top spots to get roles protected, is that still a thing? I'm spot 2 somehow, and I was thinking about taking America because America, fuck yeah! Is that going to make me a Pariah or something? Girls just wanna have fun, you know?

This post felt very airy, it certainly felt to me like a post that was primarily summation. There are some good questions in there, but there's no hard stances. The closest he comes to that is that he says he's got his eye on Rayn, but then never specifically says he was scummy. Points out he doesn't give fit his previous town meta, but then he gives him an out on it anyways saying that he might be fishing for reactions. I actually noticed something that really has me leaning towards scum on him now. He makes 2 posts specifically stating for people not to spam, and has several posts insulting BM for making small spammy posts with no content. I read this as townie when I first skimmed through his filter, but looking at it again There's something very wrong. + Show Spoiler +On April 05 2013 13:25 ObviousOne wrote:.

As for S&B I'd like to hear his response, but I like your points about how he seems to find the draft/picking phase important but doesn't actually contribute anything to them at all. So go look at his filters from past games. Dismissing a meta read because you're too lazy to look at the meta yourself is just...wtfboggle.

Also the top guys are gonna get killed anyways early on as they probably have the "best" roles in the game. If they do not die it brings more attention to them. I already addressed that. No, trying to get yourself in a top pick isn't scummy, in itself. Rapidly changing your mind to a plan that benefits you more, personally, than town, and then refusing to back up your opinions on cooperating with the other top picks is scummy, though.

Though the idea of stopping strong scum roles is appealing, there are a myriad of strong roles in the game and I don't think sacrificing strong townreads that can pick early (and therefore are unlikely to be blocked by anyone) VT roles just to stop scum from picking certain roles is good. 1. They'll know exactly what X players before them picked so they can dodge roles that would otherwise make them VT. 2. Strong townreads end up with a public VT role rather than being able to help town beyond their scumhunting. 3. The townVT to scumVT balance will shift heavily in scum's favour 4. If there's scum before the last strong townread assigned to a scumrole, it could easily be sniped anyway.

No one's actually addressed this yet, especially Yamato which I find strange as it's an improvement upon his plan. I'd propose we use it for 2 roles at the most though. Past that, it just becomes too unreliable. I don't like the VT claiming idea. Players that ended up with a VT role are still important to town in one way: Taking hits that would otherwise land on blues. I don't think the info gained on roles is worth this downside. There might be exceptions in certain situations (such as a player high up in the list claiming VT when he tried to pick a scummy role), but as the norm I'd be against it. Brings up his idea again, stating he believes it's an improvement to the plan, and again is applying critical thinking about the picking strategies that others are proposing. I don't see this as "hiding in set up speculation" I see this as someone applying critical thought as to how the town can start the game off with the most advantageous, and start the mafia off with the least.

I randomly chose obviousone. i wrote up a few sentences about his post about artanis, how about you do the same and then we can both post ours after i finish my next dota game? Commercial break.

Do you think I spamming up the thread?
I am asking because my last couple posts have all been big text walls; and not sure if Im getting my message across succinctly at the moment.
Who cares at this point. Give the lurkers a shit load of posts to read when they get back. Let them cry. Let them complain. They will sheep anyway. Your question wouldn't even be relevant if everyone was participating. Be the Mocsta we know and love. Fuck the haters. Straight up saying to spam. Call it a joke, or whatever, but that kind of conflicting mindset isn't townie. ##vote: ObviousOneYou can't stay in line with your own thinking at all, I think that's because you're scum. thanks! here's mine OO's artanis case: - most of the traits he picks out are not mutually exclusive or alignment indicative - no attempt to explain the connection between his "meta research" and the conclusion at the end of his post - most of the things he highlights about artanis in tl mafia 51 are equally likely to be explained by the fact that it was a large game as the fact that he was scum - basically the only real points he makes are that artanis has not posted much and that artanis is missing the "edge of sarcasm" that he has as town - imo nebulousthings like the "edge of sarcasm" are equally likely explained by confirmation bias as by them being real, especially when they're just asserted without quotes so what does this mean about oo's alignment? - first, the actual fact that the case is qwrong doesn't mean anything aboput it. townies make wrong cases - second, however, the fact that oo went to all the trouble of highlighting trhe stuff he read from artanis's old games, but then didn't actually draw any conclusions from it but ended up making exactly the same points gonzaw did, makes me think he cares more about the appearance of effort than actually getting anything out of the effort itself. diong all that work to read all those filters and making a list fo traits and then ignoring that list when he makes his final analysis just really doesnt make much sense ot me from a townie pov. - that said, i got exactly the same feeling about oo in RED mafia just now and he flipped town. so i'm hesitant to put too much weight on this point wrt him specifically. basically what i learned from RED mafia about him is that it's entirely possible for him to put in a shitload of effort and not actually get anything useful out of it. - so conclusion: very weak but lean scum.
He starts putting suspicion on OO here, and throws in a defense of Artanis.

wifomwifomwifom
more likely that he was killed because one of his "potential dayvig targets" is scum? or just because scum figured out his role and decided to kill him while they could?
Followed by another defense of Artanis

For a scum that high up to take NRA member instead of some active KP role, they would have to think of themselves as a likely check or other night action target. It doesn't make sense just to have a lurker take it and hope to get vigged instead of lynched.
VE is the only one of the list above geript who is a likely check or vig target but not a likely early lynch.
Plus, if you look at his play it's like he's trying to draw vig shots or dt checks.
He is most likely the scum NRA member.
Plus unlike artanis or shelvocke, if he is the NRA member then there's no hope for investigative roles to clear up the questions about him.
IMO we should lynch ve.
He's suddenly in line with lynching Artanis here though. But he's still trying to push the lynch towards the most beneficial possible for mafia. If we had lynched Artanis, we could have lynched VE the day after and we would have known it would be less likely that there would be a kill. If we had lynched VE there would have been another mafia kill. In reality both were lynched, but before that happened getting the lynch onto VE was the best scum could really hope to achieve.

I still think artanis is decently likely to be scum, as is shelvocke and to a lesser extent OO.
But I'm gonna go ahead and
##vote: VE
Actually votes VE. Is still going after OO, a little bit.

Still pushing OO a little. He's never really been going after him too hard, just enough to keep him on everyone's radar, but not enough to lead the lynch.
On April 10 2013 07:04 strongandbig wrote: if i were a vig i would probably shoot oo
or maybe i am a vig and have shot him already! scum you will never know the truth
This is the hardest he's gone after OO, and it actually looks like it's designed to WIFOM townies out of shooting him, which makes sense if they want to mislynch him.
This is in line with what Caller was pushing as a mislynch day 2.
Now there's a few ways this could all fall apart.
First off there's the fact that it means mafia were throwing a fair bit of suspicion on each other at the beginning. Either that was their plan to begin with, or they got forced into it, or there's the possibility StrongAndBig isn't mafia but just ended up in the middle of Deconduo/VE/Artanis.
There's also a lot of assumptions in this case. It assumes that A) Deconduo was not just a townie mad about being shot so that he used his janitor power, and that he was actually mafia. B) It relies on BM actually confirming that he is or is not the justice vig. I think it's very important we confirm this because if he's not then Caller was not necessarily mafia. C) Caller being mafia. If BM is the justice vig he for sure was, but until we know that for sure this is the weakest point of the case. If Caller was not mafia, I am not as certain that StrongAndBig is mafia.
One last point I almost forgot:

This post reads to me as a joke made by someone who couldn't get it out of their head that they were mafia. That's really up for interpretation though.
It's food time, so I'm going to post this. I'll make one more post on who the other person I think we should lynch today is before I go, and I'll try and be back for lynch time, but I'm unsure if that's possible.
