He's here now and you're not asking him anything. You're whole reasoning is bullshit. Palmar, what do you make of this? | ||

But meh, aside from that, most of the people posting right now seem town enough. People that HAVE irked me so far include CC, VE, and Oats. BM is also sketch for his claim thing. He "soft claimed" last game, too, and was mafia. This could be the same sort of play. | ||

Then he lists off some easy targets who haven't been here and say they "irk" him. Then BM is sketch. these words are very wishy washy. Also his comment on BM is really dumb reasoning compared to his usual town reasoning. TLDR, no conviction behind anything yamato Look up a dictionary and tell me where "sketch" and "irk" imply indecisiveness and I'll take this post seriously. | ||

It's not outside the realm of possibility that he wanted to nudge the town causing millers to claim. Doesn't tell me if he is town or scum, either; he could be fishing for mafia to rise to the bait and miller claim as well. Discussion went (without his explicit aid) towards lynching all miller claims and that theoretical concept was shut down. Why don't we just ask him if he's claiming miller and move on until he comes back? His activity in Boardwalk was mostly in the late evening/early morning hours (EST), so we'll see what he has to say about it when he comes back. In the mean time, ShiaoPi why did you want to kill Bill Murray as your first game post? It doesn't exactly jive with your previous post in the pre-game. Explain please. So even more so than me, you don't seem to care what the thread is doing, don't want to talk about reads, and seem content waiting on one person to explain his claim in order to do ANYTHING today. But you're content with your +1 of suspicion on me while repeating the same drivel the people that have already spoken have said. I'd kill Ace. Forreal. ##Vote Ace | ||

Ace is lynchable because his reasoning for throwing suspicion on me is ass and he's been posting bullshit the entire game. BC is nullish, despite my earlier proclamation. He could have made that post as either alignment. More information is necessary to lynch him. CC is too quiet to be town CC. His "tunnel me" charade is a copycat from Nomination where he replaced in day 1. His shitty null reads are also indicative of him being mafia; town CC calls people mafia and gives no fucks about being wrong. And VE is mafia because his reasoning for being suspicious of me is ass, just like Ace. Only VE is even worse because he should know better. Unfortunately, however, a VE that blindly follows thread sentiment is a scum VE. Lynch him. | ||

Yamato looks bad too, I never like the excuse "Oh well you know my posting was INTENTIONALLY bad". ##Vote: Bill Murray What is important here isn't just that he's slapping a vote down with such little thought, it's that he also slyly slips in that he'd be willing to lynch me as well, with reasoning that conflicts with his own earlier analysis of my posting. Early in the game, he clearly understood that I wasn't putting in effort for some reason, and reached the correct conclusion that I was sheeping Palmar out of a town read on him. So why does he suddenly not understand that some early posts, and indeed some of the latter ones, are truly just trolling? It seems like he's fabricating a reason to vote me after earlier having defended me, and I see no clear line of reasoning that caused the move. On April 23 2013 03:51 VisceraEyes wrote: But OO!

Because I got news for you guys: I would and did. I'll respond to yamato's case specifically if his wagon goes anywhere, but suffice to say that there are several misrepresentations present in his case and he never once tries to figure out if I'm town or scum - only assumes I'm scum and invents a narrative that supports it. Invents a narrative? Your posts are the narrative. I invented nothing. I provided valuable commentary on 100% scumtells. A VE that does what you did is scum. | ||

If you accept bullshit claims like that then it auto confirms people for no reason other than players are stupid. If you are someone who gets a red check when checked you die. Why does a town player having the opinion that millers should claim mean that they are mafia? Just because you think it's "pro-mafia" (wrongly) does that make the person in question mafia? BC is a good enough player to know better than that, no? Yet the majority of the rest of his filter is devoted to arguing this point with OO, cementing the ides that OO likely believes what he's saying as opposed to just bringing up the idea so his mafia buddies could claim miller without a second thought.

If you get red checked you get killed. Its pretty simple. You lynch people who are likely mafia. Town has no reason to ever claim miller EVEN IF THEY KNOW THEY ARE ONE. As all it does is create chaos. IE only mafia have a benefit to claim it thus should be lynched. As for extremely bad? Sorry I've seen you play. You aren't that bad and should be able to follow the logic I just outlined. Its straightforward and extremely basic.

So what happened if both Oats and I are town? The mafia don't care which one dies, since we're both town and seem similar. BC being inactive is a product of how little interest he has in actually finding mafia, because he already knows who they are. Furthermore, where is the curiosity in his reads? He's CONVINCED that I am mafia from one post taken out of context (something he argues against in his own filter, saying that looking at posts out of context is retarded). He's CONVINCED that OO is mafia, simply because he argues that millers claiming should be allowed. Why has everyone let him skate by? Just because he wanted to lynch me? Where is his response to my newer contributions? What does he think about Oats, VE, ANYTHING? He doesn't care enough to tell us. Even when he has been active, his responses are shallow and focused on irrelevant things like debate over POLICY LYNCHES. LYNCH THE COBBLER! | ||

Because the reasoning of us being mafia is largely bullshit, and confirmation bias about our contributions this game being survival based are bullshit? Why is Oats posting more when he's about to die a trait that is exclusively reserved for mafia? Do town just want to get lynched without putting up a fight? The assumption is a bad one. | ||

It's not like I hold a high standard for what is good play and what people should be doing, I'm horrible myself for that situation, but what use is it if Oats is not giving us anything when others ask?

Seriously look at this game. The only argument there USED TO BE against me is that I "wasn't contributing" or whatever, when now, I've contributed more meaningful analysis than almost anyone in the game. Look at BC's filter for yourselves and be amazed at the complete lack of "give-a-shit" you see in his scumhunting. Realize that I'm his ONLY scum read OF THE ENTIRE GAME. Stop listening to him. If Ace is going to be blind to BC, then he might well be mafia, too, for all I know, but don't let them bully you into voting me when the obvious proof is in front of you. | ||

Because perhaps he felt it would look "scummy" if he came in and just plopped his vote down on me/Oats, knowing we are both town, when he's been un-involved the whole game. He potentially looks better by "scumhunting" with his case, which has been picked apart endlessly since it was posted. I feel that a town player would more likely than not take a stance on me/Oats, even if it was to say that we were likely town/likely mafia, and then case someone else. Clarity just sort of ignored the both of us, and didn't do a whole lot else. | ||

Having played with him on NMXXXIX, i can tell that he has no idea how to act in the start of the game. Here he seems to be trying to figure out things and share his thoughts about stuff he is asked about. Fine, why is Sharrant scummy? - He's discussing the "policy lynch BM" matter but does not reach any kind of a conclusion that points towards this particular situation. - Asks TRN about his last games. It's not TRN's job to find those games to him. It's Sharrant's job to find out TRN's affiliation and TRN wasting time on telling him about his last games is a waste of time that does not help TRN find mafia. Seems like Sharrant is lazy and does not want to find out things on his own. Townies should not do that. This section is particularly telling to me. Your entire play up until this point had been about "policy lynching BM" because you THOUGHT he claimed miller, which was a dumb enough idea anyway. Then, you come up with this read, and that's how this whole thing started. NOW I understand, the read of Sharrant is complete fabrication. Yeah, you're mafia. | ||

His read on geript seems genuine. Despite the claim, he finds geript scummy, but can't lynch him because of the sentiment that he's town for the host interaction. I like his read on you and how he handled it. I like how he interacted with BM, it seemed honest and a real product of frustration. He also has a scumread on Hopeless. I haven't personally looked at Hopeless, but that's another point in his favor. In the time he has been here, I like Sharrant's contributions, even if he may be wrong about some things. | ||

I rarely see mafia back down from an early read, and even if they do, I even more rarely actually say that person is likely town and close the door on lynching them. That's not a mafia mentality.

You stated that if Sharrant was Scum, him calling TRN town eventually in his current position doesn't make sense. What position was Sharrant in? Was he in danger of being lynched? No - so how can you really glean anything from what he says about TRN's alignment at the moment? Your post screams you automatically assumed his alignment is Town and then worked backwards. If you don't know Sharrant's alignment your entire example fails hard. Making a case on hopeless1nder doesn't mean anything.

2) A mafia player in Sharrant's position would not make the read change he did. He's not under suspicion, so why is he worried about how he looks necessarily? And why does looking like you're tunneled mean you're mafia? It doesn't. It makes no sense for mafia Sharrant to call TRN off the cuff like that after casing him at the beginning. It does make sense as town, however, as he processes new information and evaluates his reads. Far more likely that he's town for that than mafia. 3) When I look at Sharrant's filter, his contributions are many. He's obviously trying, and he's not even someone I consider a particularly good player. Contrast that with BC, and his contributions, and you'll see how I get nearly all of my reads. I don't expect much from Sharrant, but what he has put forth exceeds those expectations. I expect much more from BC, but what he's put forth wouldn't even be acceptable from Kushmasta. Do you understand now? If you're town, it's pretty fucking obvious that I'm town. I'm basically the only person who gives enough of a fuck about this game to make sure we're lynching actual mafia. You might just be confirmation biased or whatever, since I don't know what to expect from you as a player, but my gut tells me you're mafia. You seem intent on slandering my name to the thread and shooting down my perfectly good analysis at every turn. So if you're town, address my case on BC. Do you think he's trying this game? Do you think the one post out of context with the reasoning he gives is an acceptable level of effort put forth into finding mafia for the day? Even if you think I'm mafia, don't you think it's a little suspicious that he's been unable to provide any solid analysis of anyone's posting that wasn't about policy? Where's his real case on me, if I'm the mafia here? I daresay I'm the most involved player left in this game. What does that say about my alignment? Why aren't you doubting your scum read on me if you're town? I just have so many questions, and I don't think you have all the answers. | ||

And as I might add, we didn't know at that point if BM claimed, so your attack looked bad on multiple fronts. @ Yamato Your 5-man-scumteam seems weird, it seems focused on people who are rather at the center of attention, and you've become really spammy and seemingly nervous once contrasted by ace.

The explanation of night actions that we know of is complicated, given that we have 1 role block unaccounted for and 1 KP unaccounted for. I will discuss here the relevant possibilities of all of the combination of events that could have led to the situation we are at now and discuss the likelihood of each event. 1) Palmar is role blocked by town JK and shot, and Vivax is shot, while scum JK either goes unused or was used on a scum player who did not claim it. I feel like this is not very likely. Scum would want to jail offensively, because they have no chance of blocking town KP on themselves or on another town. If true, however, Palmar is confirmed town. 2) Vivax was double-stacked and jailed, and Palmar was jailed by town. Palmar's alignment is unknown, but scum deny town a ton of information, as we see. RB+KP combo is a common mafia tactic for this reason. The variation that semi-confirms Palmar would be if town JK protected Vivax and scum offensively jailed Palmar, and Vivax was still double stacked. That feels more unlikely than the former. 3) Scum double stacked Vivax, role blocked Palmar, and town JK'd offensively and hit mafia, but they didn't claim. I feel this is unlikely, because a role block claim on N1 is a soft town claim, and town JK should be defensive N1 because you can't stop KP. 4) Scum KP was on Vivax and an Vet or SK/SP, who didn't claim being hit, scum JK went unused/used on mafia or was double stacked on Palmar with town JK. Town vet has no reason not to claim, as scum already know from claims that they are vet and can die tonight. Claiming might actually help keep confirmed town alive. Third party are fucked for this rationale, but would have claimed vet with the shot, I believe. This seems unlikely, based on claims so far. So unless there are claims of shots taken or role blocks notified that have yet to be made, it is either 1 or 2, with 2 being more likely in my opinion. Combined with Palmar's somewhat disinterested play, and his insistence that VE is mafia throughout the game while consenting to some of town's wagons, this makes me believe he might be mafia. Perhaps this is the truth even if VE is mafia, as Palmar's "push" of him feels weak, and the VE lynch has been successfully resisted twice now. Regardless of VE's alignment, then, Palmar should be looked upon with some degree of suspicion. I'd consider lynching him today. | ||

BC is very scummy, as I've been saying since D1. The possibility of double stack Vivax is somewhat likely, now that I keep thinking about it. He was basically confirmed town on everyone's lists. Scum could have reasonably thought he could be protected. But if that's true, last night's actions have almost no bearing on Palmar's alignment. So maybe it's better to just ignore them altogether, in which case, I still say Palmar is reasonably suspicious based on his relative lack of effort in pushing his lynches. | ||

Shaio is easy to mislynch, as evidenced by the suspicion on him in day 2 of British Empire 1, also an instant lynch where he was lurkish, and eventually replaced. The worst part of his filter is the hammer sequence, but even that could be explained by overly eager town who got caught up in the game emotionally. Clarity is always inactive, and him being fixated on Sharrant is not alignment indicative. His case is objectively something that scum like to do, but in the context of the game, I can see a town Clarity who had a late start feeling the need to get his thoughts about the game on the table, even if they weren't about the main lynch candidates. The fact that he basically has no other reads in the game is a point in his favor, but just like VE, we can afford to play a waiting game with him, seeing as we have unlimited time. At the very least, we need real discussion about the alignments of Ace/BC/Palmar before we move forward with any lynch. Ace is the most town out of the three, and BC the least, in my eyes. I'd say a long day is in order, and town need to consolidate pressure upon just a few people so that we can determine their alignments more clearly. | ||

Even when they don't look particularly town they can still solve the game so keeping them alive is a big risk. That risk probably isn't taken for no reason, especially with the instant majority system allowing for long days. Precisely a good point. So what do you think about them? Let me know when you're caught up. | ||

For someone who is super godly at this game (or something like that) I figure he would have been the center of discussion. Some things come off scummy others seem kinda towny. He's a fairly null read tbh in the grand scheme of things which sucks. I also know apparently he's good at mafia which makes me further paranoid about him. Not a good lynch, forever null. BC is mafia because he spen the entirety of D1 throwing shit at people ("You are scum for what I bolded"). He also only took a really strong stance against you, which I think is wrong right about now. I have very similar sentiments about Ace, but just the fact that he seems RELATIVELY town when compared to most of the game makes me feel like he's not a good lynch for a while. BC, though, I've seen be a negative force in many towns, acting superior and being a dick. What I haven't seen is him being lazy enough with his scum reads that he fails to properly justify them. A good bit of his filter is also devoted to policy lynch discussion about the miller claim thing, which is disturbing. I feel like a look st his filter from Personality 2 might give me some insight into his alignment, as he was town shot N1 in that game. I don't particularly remember much of it, as the game was such a blur of spam. | ||

For all the "scum" reads I have garnered why is it only a single player has even pushed an analysis of any sort on me? This is coming from someone I pushed day 1, Yamato. Since then I have see others share the sentiment of BC must be scum. 0 reasons have followed aside from activity. My activity that I stated straight out that I was not going to be around for. Now we have someone like Yamato claiming we should kill me before I return to avoid ruining town atmosphere meanwhile he has spent the day floundering over his reads, then telling people we should lynch into the ace/palmar/BC pool. Guess what? read his filter for this current day. Find me him pushing anyone on analysis. Show me him trying to consolidate the town on any central lynch. He suggests names then changes them. The only constant is me but he never just pushes me. He is still not actively pushing me. Why? If i am his #1 scum read this game he would be trying to push my death faster and surer than anything else he has done this game day. Instead? He just mentions my name. Read his filter. End of page 5 and on. Tell me where he gives an analysis post or solid read that is based on any substance. Tell me where he tries to prove my original statement of him being scum wrong. He has done absolutely nothing but attempt to blend into the crowd while calling names? Why? Because if I get lynched then he follows me to death as hes pushing for a death on a townie. He knows damn well that he will get shot / lynched on my flip thus is not pushing for my death. He also mentions we should lynch into the me / ace / palmar group. He never does a solid method of analysis on either just blanket says we should lynch into this group to find scum. Why isn't he attempting to help? Because he knows there are misslynches in there and does not want the fallback on his own head. Why if he also believes ace could be scum why no analysis on ace? Why is the only post on palmar being red a WIFOM argument. Why does he have a vote on VE if he wants me dead of all people? Simple. Yamato is scum. So I'm catching up in the thread, but I stopped here to specifically respond to this case, because while I can tell from a skim if the rest if the game that it is unsuccessful in pushing for my lynch, it has been successful in attacking my image to the thread, which is absolute bullshit. VE, in particular, is sheeping the FUCK out of town sentiment today, especially when it regards me, so he's definitely mafia, but I'll talk more about that later. In THIS post, we have a few accusations, all of which I can reasonably explain with a simple lack of understanding. While my gut reaction to someone misrepresenting my posts and my agenda today this horribly is to call them mafia, this sort of confirmation bias induced look at my alignment is more likely to come from town. I think BC is just wrong here, and unable to realize it because his experience with playing with me is little. When I said I didn't want us to let BC come in the thread and shit on the atmosphere, I was not advocating killing him off before he had time to respond. I was advocating either ignoring his inflammatory posting or responding to it with solid explanations or analysis. If you managed to accurately read my posts from today, I very clearly said that I did not want to rush today's lynch. That brings up my next point. I've been accused of waffling around with my reads and not pushing any one lynch. As for BC, I genuinely believed him mafia and a negative presence in the town atmosphere, and was pushing for his lynch based on analysis that I made yesterday, which he had done nothing to change. He hadn't posted anything worth analyzing until this post. As for Shiao/Clarity, I have yet to see what they've done today, but what they did yesterday/last night was not enough for me to want to rush their lynches, and that is exactly what I was saying in the post where I supposedly contradicted myself. I consider the possibility that they are town who are bad, because it is always a possibility, even if it is not a likelihood. Thus, there is no reason to shorten our day and rush a lynch when we have infinite time, and they have hardly had time to make a response to the thread. VE I was obviously wrong to doubt my read on. He is mafia, just from what I have read, but I'll get to that later today. The accusation that I haven't done analysis of filters is inaccurate, in that I had certainly analysed the filters of VE, Palmar, and BC in context and given my thoughts about each. Palmar I specifically said seemed disinterested to me, based on his posting. I have cases on VE and BC, and will have an updated one on VE. To attack me for this is to show you aren't reading my posts very closely. I asked for other's opinions on them to see what other people read in Ace/BC, because I am not familiar with either of them. Perhaps the only thing you can truly accuse me of is doubting my reads and not pushing for a consolidated lynch, but how exactly does that make me mafia? I didn't want to lynch 24 hours into the day, so we discussed our reads at the time and tried to draw more thought-out conclusions. What mafia motivation is there for that? You think I don't want to be responsible for a lynch? Do you really think that my outspoken nature is one that kinds itself to blending in? No. I own my reads, and I had perfectly good reason to doubt them. Now, if you're going to lynch me, you're going to have to come up with a lot better reasons than that. Seriously reconsider what you think about my play, because it's obvious to me that some of you are looking at me with extreme confirmation bias. But, at the very least, I think this is somewhat difficult to imitate as mafia, so from here on out, I'll treat with you as if you're town, because treating you like mafia isn't going to help anything. | ||

Go figure. ##vote: VE If there are no direct questions to me in the next couple of minutes I'll be off to bed until I can come back on tomorrow at about the same time as right now.

He has no original thought about the game, and doesn't seem to care about giving us any valid reasons for voting for VE outside of Palmar's lackluster efforts in pushing for the lynch. And then there's the bolded, his "reaction" to the tube modkill, that sets something off in my head. It seems unnatural and forced to go "(lol btw!)" in the middle of this post. I'd be happy with lynching him, if we feel we need to consolidate on a lynch. I've advocated playing a waiting game, but I saw it mentioned that we've only really talked about lynching between him/Clarity today, and I agree, so perhaps it is best if we move on.

The thing that was holding me back most was that my primary scum suspect (rayn) was on Oats fairly early on. However: Given that Oats never actually provided anything for us in terms of reads afterwards and posted crap about being green and telling people to push others. If he has nothing to say either: a) He's playing as the bad townie b) He's withholding that info from us to stop us from gaining more than we need from the lynch. Either case is bad for town, so that's why I'm willing to go down on Oats. ##Unvote ##Vote Oats Seems more of a case for voting for "bad town" than scum, which seems like a slip of a scum mindset, in my opinion. Why? Because it is something I run into as scum, how to formulate a read on a town player and call them scum so I can vote for them. Most of the time, it is "bad town" that get mislynched, so the difference becomes vague. Justifying a vote by saying that someone is "bad for town" is an easy scum out, because town players can and will be anti-town on many occasions. Yet this is Sylencia's mindset, and how he justifies the vote on Oats. Just from this voting analysis, I feel he might be mafia. I have yet to analyse his filter in totality, but given this, I will definitely give it a look.

This all happens within the span of ~2 hours, mind you, when I'm screaming at the thread not to lynch Oats. Say what you want about me, but all three of these votes are particularly HORRID, and all of them are either switches off Rayn (a wagon that seems inherently scummy, in that people that switched off it didn't seem to change their read on him much) or the player's first vote of the game. Is there a chance they are town? Sure. I'd probably say Sylencia has the most chance to be town, since when compared to the other two, his vote looks the MOST explained, despite the fishy nature of the post. The other two, however, give very little indication that they think Oats is mafia before they vote, and the hammer in particular looks like TEXTBOOK MAFIA trying to find a good reason to just lynch a town. Notably, I did something JUST like this day 1 of British Empire 1 (also instant majority), where I fabricated suspicion of a town-created wagon on a town player and managed to hammer him for the lynch. Only this is even worse, and more obvious, because they didn't even manage to look like they thought about it before obviously putting Oats in danger of, and actually being lynch. That's VCA done right, bros. And from it, I find the willingness to lynch the fuck out of Shiapi, because this is bullshit. No matter how much post-hoc justification he gives, there is only mafia motivation to be seen in what he has done. | ||

I literally can't get past this roadblock in my mind, so you need to step it up. | ||

While it can be reasonably assumed that he is actually busy, the amount of this post used to excuse his own inactivity is mind-blowing. He has no original thought about the game, and doesn't seem to care about giving us any valid reasons for voting for VE outside of Palmar's lackluster efforts in pushing for the lynch. And then there's the bolded, his "reaction" to the tube modkill, that sets something off in my head. It seems unnatural and forced to go "(lol btw!)" in the middle of this post. I'd be happy with lynching him, if we feel we need to consolidate on a lynch. I've advocated playing a waiting game, but I saw it mentioned that we've only really talked about lynching between him/Clarity today, and I agree, so perhaps it is best if we move on. Another thing I thought to look at was the WHOLE votecount from day 1, not just the Oats wagon: There are some changes to this: So the votecount itself is somewhat difficult to analyse, seeing as most people were either on me or Oats, but the people on Rayn do seem out of place, and it is even more weird that two of them managed to get themselves on to Oats before his lynch; Sylencia and Hopeless. Also note that Shiao's only vote of the whole day was the hammer on Oats. And people want to say that it isn't scummy? Yeah, no. But as before, there were multiple vote changes inbetween, and they are worth looking into. To begin why did Sylencia decide to change to Oats? Seems more of a case for voting for "bad town" than scum, which seems like a slip of a scum mindset, in my opinion. Why? Because it is something I run into as scum, how to formulate a read on a town player and call them scum so I can vote for them. Most of the time, it is "bad town" that get mislynched, so the difference becomes vague. Justifying a vote by saying that someone is "bad for town" is an easy scum out, because town players can and will be anti-town on many occasions. Yet this is Sylencia's mindset, and how he justifies the vote on Oats. Just from this voting analysis, I feel he might be mafia. I have yet to analyse his filter in totality, but given this, I will definitely give it a look. Hopeless. + Show Spoiler + Get it? Anyway, this is Wonder's SECOND EVER mention of Oatsmaster, and the first one where he gives any inclination of thinking him mafia. AMAZING! HOW DID HE REACH THIS SECRET CONCLUSION?!?!?! Wow. I'm not saying this is totally regurgitation of other people's arguments, but it is. This also come AFTER his vote, where he's fully aware that he's putting Oats one vote away from lynch. And then guess what happens... I unvote (temporarily delaying the lynch), Sylencia manages to vote AND: The hammer! This all happens within the span of ~2 hours, mind you, when I'm screaming at the thread not to lynch Oats. Say what you want about me, but all three of these votes are particularly HORRID, and all of them are either switches off Rayn (a wagon that seems inherently scummy, in that people that switched off it didn't seem to change their read on him much) or the player's first vote of the game. Is there a chance they are town? Sure. I'd probably say Sylencia has the most chance to be town, since when compared to the other two, his vote looks the MOST explained, despite the fishy nature of the post. The other two, however, give very little indication that they think Oats is mafia before they vote, and the hammer in particular looks like TEXTBOOK MAFIA trying to find a good reason to just lynch a town. Notably, I did something JUST like this day 1 of British Empire 1 (also instant majority), where I fabricated suspicion of a town-created wagon on a town player and managed to hammer him for the lynch. Only this is even worse, and more obvious, because they didn't even manage to look like they thought about it before obviously putting Oats in danger of, and actually being lynch. That's VCA done right, bros. And from it, I find the willingness to lynch the fuck out of Shiapi, because this is bullshit. No matter how much post-hoc justification he gives, there is only mafia motivation to be seen in what he has done. You clowned around all of day 1, almost got lynched and have shown no effort to step up. You've promised analysis on VE and BC and have failed to deliver. Telling the thread to just give you some more time. Yet you show up to blast ShiaoPi and not do what you promised. You aren't even trying to scumhunt - just throwing accusations at big name players. This apathy and lack of effort, that you yourself promised, shows you aren't focused. If you thought any of us you named were people you wanted lynched you would have made a case by now on us - not a case on ShiaoPi and ignoring clarity completely. GG scum. I've provided almost all of the analysis I have promised, expect analysis of you, so that's a moot point. If you can't find analysis of BC and VE in my filter, you're not reading it. I fucked around PART day 1, sure, whatever. Doesn't make me mafia. I voted on Oats wagon, but guess what? So did you! AND, I was the only person who managed to realize that he was actually town, and tried to NOT get him lynched, so that's a non-issue. Your voting analysis is also shit and proves nothing about anyone, town or scum. I never "defended" Clarity, I simply found SHIAO a better lynch, and I would still stand by my analysis of his posting. Just because Clarity was mafia doesn't mean Shiao isn't. You may be right, I'm not completely focused on this game, but the effort is clearly there. I am here, in the thread, talking about my reads nearly every time I post. YOU are the one calling me mafia every time you post with ZERO fucking analysis to go along with it. Your "reasoning" for finding Clarity a better lynch is laughable. I have no reason to believe you weren't just bussing him for cred you would have lost should he simply be modkilled. I have no reason to believe you actually found Shiao town based on anything but poor conclusions drawn from the "wagons" of three players, when you didn't consider ANYTHING about the context of the votes, why they were made, or whether they were changed or not. It seems more like you just decided Shiao was town and had to find a reason to say so, rather than actually having analysed the information in the thread and reached a solid conclusion. But hey, shit on my analysis some more. I guarantee one of syl/shiao/hopeless is mafia. You don't think those votes are fishy as fuck? Of course not, YOU SAID IT WASN'T BEFORE! LOLOLOL Whatever. Shoot me. I'm obviously too angry to take this seriously. | ||

So assuming Shiao is mafia, that makes the day 2 wagons BOTH mafia. People that felt there was little difference between them would be largely absolved, in my opinion. What would then be strange were the two people who argued over the two of them, VE and Ace. As I said before, there is a clear scum motivation in saving Shiao and bussing Clarity, because Clarity was likely to be mod killed anyway and highly inactive. Ace proposes that this lost the scum team 2 KP, and it did, but it actually served to SAVE a scum member, since before Ace's push, Shiao was the one getting lynched. Some time in day 2, people began to realize just how inactive Clarity was, and it became apparent that he was more than likely to be mod killed. So the Clarity bus, assuming Shiao is mafia, is actually making the best out of a shit situation. Ace also argues in his filter that the scum team would have pushed an alternative target, but people fail to realize that this person was me. Thread sentiment has been against me the entire game, and even the way Ace develops his suspicion of me on day 1 is worth looking at. And on day 2, there is no shortage of referring to me being a possible lynch candidate in Ace's filter. What adds on to this for me is that his metric for determining the better lynch between Clarity/Shiao is somewhat suspect. Most of it no longer applies, because in knowing that Clarity was scum, and Shiao was scum, we realize that him not voting his scum buddy in the time he was there is not weird whatsoever. The VCA that "scummy people" from the Oats wagon were on the Shiao wagon is also complete bullshit, and I've been over that before. Another thing is the choice of NK, CC. His check was the one on Shiao, and it was this check that Ace wanted to argue against, that CC was suspicious for his claim and not to be trusted. Later, he goes on to about face once he realizes people are believing CC and plays along with this whole thing, but he's still disruptive in the sense that he wanted cops to check each other, which CC was obviously against from a look at his filter. So with VE complying, and Palmar being a wildcard and under some suspicion, he NK's the cop everyone believes that isn't following his circle jerk plan. Shiao flipping a scum largely invalidates the largest part of why people should believe Ace as town, which were his day 2 actions with the lynch. When you eliminate that, which is a large portion of his actual contribution this game, his filter devolves significantly, and you're left with a lot of arguing with people and insulting others, along with bullying people for their read on him. So yeah, Ace could definitely be scum. | ||

But I have made many cases this game, right or wrong, and with the Syl/Shiao situation, I got shit done, right or wrong. But I can see where someone might think I'm mafia, because I have played like shit for the majority of this game. I would like to think I'm being more reasonable lately than I have been most of the game. But hey, you can yell and scream at me because I think you might be mafia. That's cool. I might be wrong, and I acknowledge that, but I never sleep on players like you, VE. You're better at scum than you want people to believe. | ||

Don't just shit on it, discredit those participating and fuck off...that's a SCUMMY THING TO DO, and you can be mad about it all you want but it is. You may think I haven't done anything in this game but claim, but there's a reason most everyone is certain I'm town at this point and people are frothing at the mouth to lynch you...I'll tell you for free that it's probably not because of my claim. Yeah, it's because you've largely agreed with them all game, and I haven't. Small wonder they think you're town and I'm not. All of people's criticism of me boils down to "I don't like how you play" and that's bullshit. I'm not going to play how you want me to when I'm perfectly successful in games where I play my way.

While it can be reasonably assumed that he is actually busy, the amount of this post used to excuse his own inactivity is mind-blowing. He has no original thought about the game, and doesn't seem to care about giving us any valid reasons for voting for VE outside of Palmar's lackluster efforts in pushing for the lynch. And then there's the bolded, his "reaction" to the tube modkill, that sets something off in my head. It seems unnatural and forced to go "(lol btw!)" in the middle of this post. I'd be happy with lynching him, if we feel we need to consolidate on a lynch. I've advocated playing a waiting game, but I saw it mentioned that we've only really talked about lynching between him/Clarity today, and I agree, so perhaps it is best if we move on. Another thing I thought to look at was the WHOLE votecount from day 1, not just the Oats wagon: There are some changes to this: So the votecount itself is somewhat difficult to analyse, seeing as most people were either on me or Oats, but the people on Rayn do seem out of place, and it is even more weird that two of them managed to get themselves on to Oats before his lynch; Sylencia and Hopeless. Also note that Shiao's only vote of the whole day was the hammer on Oats. And people want to say that it isn't scummy? Yeah, no. But as before, there were multiple vote changes inbetween, and they are worth looking into. To begin why did Sylencia decide to change to Oats? Seems more of a case for voting for "bad town" than scum, which seems like a slip of a scum mindset, in my opinion. Why? Because it is something I run into as scum, how to formulate a read on a town player and call them scum so I can vote for them. Most of the time, it is "bad town" that get mislynched, so the difference becomes vague. Justifying a vote by saying that someone is "bad for town" is an easy scum out, because town players can and will be anti-town on many occasions. Yet this is Sylencia's mindset, and how he justifies the vote on Oats. Just from this voting analysis, I feel he might be mafia. I have yet to analyse his filter in totality, but given this, I will definitely give it a look. Hopeless. + Show Spoiler + Get it? Anyway, this is Wonder's SECOND EVER mention of Oatsmaster, and the first one where he gives any inclination of thinking him mafia. AMAZING! HOW DID HE REACH THIS SECRET CONCLUSION?!?!?! Wow. I'm not saying this is totally regurgitation of other people's arguments, but it is. This also come AFTER his vote, where he's fully aware that he's putting Oats one vote away from lynch. And then guess what happens... I unvote (temporarily delaying the lynch), Sylencia manages to vote AND: The hammer! This all happens within the span of ~2 hours, mind you, when I'm screaming at the thread not to lynch Oats. Say what you want about me, but all three of these votes are particularly HORRID, and all of them are either switches off Rayn (a wagon that seems inherently scummy, in that people that switched off it didn't seem to change their read on him much) or the player's first vote of the game. Is there a chance they are town? Sure. I'd probably say Sylencia has the most chance to be town, since when compared to the other two, his vote looks the MOST explained, despite the fishy nature of the post. The other two, however, give very little indication that they think Oats is mafia before they vote, and the hammer in particular looks like TEXTBOOK MAFIA trying to find a good reason to just lynch a town. Notably, I did something JUST like this day 1 of British Empire 1 (also instant majority), where I fabricated suspicion of a town-created wagon on a town player and managed to hammer him for the lynch. Only this is even worse, and more obvious, because they didn't even manage to look like they thought about it before obviously putting Oats in danger of, and actually being lynch. That's VCA done right, bros. And from it, I find the willingness to lynch the fuck out of Shiapi, because this is bullshit. No matter how much post-hoc justification he gives, there is only mafia motivation to be seen in what he has done. | ||

He's mafia. Lynch him. OO/WoS/TRN/Gigyas/VE/Kush seem town enough to eliminate them. Ace/Palmar/BC - will never speak about again. If I had a choice, I would RNG between them and lynch ruthlessly. Sharrant/Artanis/Stutters all possible mafia. | ||

Artanis replaced Drazak, who was a lurky, inactive player as mafia in Hydra. Perhaps this trend carried over to this game, and he rolled mafia again? Is Drazak known for being inactive as town? Artanis also suffers from the same syndrome mafia DarthPunk did in Personality 2, one of complete apathy upon replacing in, and excusing his lack of contribution with the idea that he's "still catching up." He is also one of a very few people who have correctly read my alignment. Is that just an attempt to buddy me, or is he actually like CC and Palmar in that he has a brain? Difficult to tell in this town. Seems like a good candidate to pressure for lynch, because if town, he might actually do something. He is relatively decent at scum, however, so he may be difficult to hammer home. Stutters replaced DH, who I think is just AWOL from the forum altogether. Stutter's inactivity is typical of his play, so there's literally nothing alignment indicative about it. What he has said in the thread seems logical enough, and it would be his first scum game ever, so it's probably better to treat him as if he's town until there is some indication that he isn't. Not a good lynch, because it's 75/25 that he's town, IMO. So it's Hopeless/Artanis as possible mafia left out of the "non-vet" group. Next I'll take a serious look at the vet group and determine the actual possibilities that lie therein. | ||

By this same logic, it seems odd that Ace is alive. While all of these players have been under some degree of suspicion this game, this fact hasn't stopped scum teams from shooting high-priority targets before. Out of the three mentioned, Ace seems like the least likely to be mafia, simply from activity levels and attitude about the game. But he also has a reputation as a legendary scum player, so it is difficult for me to cognitively cross him off my list of suspects, and my conspiracy theories only serve to move him further null in my mind. It may be a decent idea to ignore him for a short while until we get more information about the alignments of the other two. So back to Palmar/BC; I find it more likely that Palmar is town than BC. Palmar, while relatively inactive, has attempted at times to push his own agenda in lynching VE, good or bad. He's also had a believable narrative in checking/claiming a red check on BC. Is he capable of this sort of play as mafia? It's possible, but I feel it likely that Palmar is actually telling the truth that he simply cba to do anything. It's an illness that often strikes Palmar. BC doesn't seem to have pushed for anyone's lynch but mine this whole game. From my perspective, this is hilariously weak, since I know I'm town. It's unfortunate that his schedule restricts him from being active most of the time people are attempting to decide upon lynches. His strongest stance since saying I'm scum is saying that Palmar is, which seems to be in line with general town sentiment. But I've never seen BC play past D1/N1, so I can't know if this play is his typical town play or not. I will say that in the games I have played with him, he seems more assertive about his reads and more aggressive in hunting them. I'm not getting that feeling this game, especially as the game wears on. Out of the two, I would lynch BC. I'd much rather lynch Hopeless, however, over either of them. I'll take a better look at his voting patterns throughout the game and come to a much more defined conclusion. | ||

Go on, look at it, it's short. He has 5 vote this game, and they are not spread evenly throughout the days. I'm going to match them to the corresponding reasons he gives in thread and analyse his voting strategy this game, all in chronological order to see how it's changed, or hasn't, over time.

Am I trying to prevent townreads? You could say that. However, the reasoning used to attain a townread on VE was true of literally every player in the game. It's the equivalent of calling anyone who doesn't post for more than an hour scum. Man's gotta sleep right? Same way he has to READ THE OP TO LEARN WHAT HIS ROLE IS??? Vivax/Palmar's openings: Palmar, based on the plethora of information from Vivax's two posts, the first ones in the game, declares Vivax to be unlynchable. Just like that. And that was alright because I felt similar about it. I mean I'd still have an open mind, but Vivax's post did put me onto a townier side of Vivax. My problem with Palmar's post was that he called something really fucking stupid a valuable towntell heuristic. Let me break this shit down: DAY 1 POST timestamp On April 21 2013 16:55 Blazinghand wrote: Vivax's first posts, the ones Palmar was referring to So roughly an hour and a half. In addition there were 15ish posts between 6 players, obs notwithstanding. Also, the game started in the dead of night where I am. Hydra Mini scum in ~30 minutes, 33 posts into the game. Ego Mini: scum posted within an hour of game start. 34 posts in. Noir Mini: scum four minutes and 6 posts into the game British Empire II second post of the game 3 minutes in. Red team's prize Scum in under an hour, 25 posts in. The Game scum 5 minutes in, second post All of these games violate Vivax's heuristic, but fuck me for pointing it out (without proof i guess) and questioning Palmar as to why he felt it was valuable, eh guys? . These are literally games just going down the list of the TL Mafia forum. I'm obviouscum trying to derail town from giving out Completely valid and well thought out town reads based on sound reasoning. Nah, you can all go die in a fire if you want to lynch me for this. As of right now, I'm on Sharrant's side and would lynch rayn. I disllike his backpedal about "policy" miller lynching. I dislike his case overall as it is largely OMGUS, but still asks questions of the person he is accusing. However, his preface to his case was here: These two quotes don't accomplish anything to me. He's just throwing the question back at sharrant like a stall tactic of feigning disbelief. For having come up with a scumread on Sharrant it seems grounded in the fact that Sharrant is wrong, not necessarily scum. "If I WERE mafia, blah blah blah" No. I say you ARE mafia. ##Vote: raynpelikoneet This post has been given as reason for hopeless being town, because it shows effort. I disagree. Most of the things Hopeless argues about in this post are completely pointless, and none of it has almost any bearing on anyone's alignment. Again, I'll break it down. 1) VE shouldn't be a town read because everyone had to look at the OP for their role, or whatever. I don't even understand what he's arguing here, and he doesn't pursue it. It's a non-issue, and it seems more like he's defending himself for doing what he did than actually pushing any sort of suspicion on VE. It's stupid, and not worth talking about. 2) Vivax gave out too many "free town reads" or whatever with his "no scum have posted before this!" post. What the fuck, who cares. Why does he care what Vivax is doing with his reads this game, unless he thinks he is mafia? It's an absurd argument, and again pointless. Just as pointless to argue that Palmar is suspicious for giving Vivax a townread over it. Another thing that seems self-serving, in that it's defending his contributions this game. 3) He's shutting down town reads of people. That point actually seems true, since that's most of what he's talked about. Valid criticism, but not all that damning. 4) The case on Rayn, which was woefully short and inadequate. Not only do we have the luxury of knowing that he was wrong here, but his arguments aren't even that strong. He takes a couple of posts out of context in an argument between Rayn and Sharrant, and calls Rayb mafia because they sound odd, or something to that effect. It's largely bogus, and Hopeless is obviously just taking sides in a town vs. town war and hoping to fan the flames. I view this as a point against him, not for him. So when we break that post down, it's actually fairly apparent that his contribution esd largely self-serving, and have fairly clear mafia motivations. He wants to clear his image and appear to be "scumhunting" while he argues over town reads, so he slaps an ill-thought-out case down on Rayn and proceeds to do little else day 1.

Clarity's spiel about 'easy outs' doesnt look that stupid to me considering how Sharrant's read on rayn went into the abyss with no comment at all. He just dropped his read with no explanation that I can find. What gives? There's also what I view as feigned contribution. I realize he's posted way more than I have, but when you post and then don't drop a wall of text in some regard, it looks like faked activity to me. This is also his first post after insisting he has shit to do upon his return, but I cant find these amazing things he's done. He's focused his attention towards clarity, but clarity barely existed at this point. Where are these "better things" sharrant promised? ##Vote: Sharrant In the Sharrant vs. Clarity thing that happaned day 2, Hopeless took the side of mafia, after having taken Sharrant's side day 1. Purely as an association case, this looks horrible, but when you consider that Hopeless' read of Sharrant changed so drastically overnight, it becomes even more suspicious.

Unless shiao is ALSO a vig, he really should be considered town. Depending on flips and such, I'd consider him semi confirmed. My personal choices for shots is sylencia and stutters. Obviously don't shoot me (herpderp), and I marginally believe wos. Post-hoc justification, yet again. He stays consistent in that he "didn't trust Sharrant" so he didn't vote for Clarity. But what did he do? He defended Shiao's image to the thread and threw shit at the people on his wagon. Why? Who the fuck knows. Before now, I see almost zero mention of Shiao and his read on him, except that he's "willing to hammer him". Not looking great for Hopeless here in this department. Day 3... Nothing. While we did lynch quick, he made no vote. A non-issue, I suppose.

Overall, it's fairly clear to me how little Hopeless cares about finding a good lynch. He doesn't spend much effort in the thread trying to discern people's alignments, and his votes on Day 1+2 look highly suspect. Just from looking at these posts, and some context in his filter, it's easy to discern that Hopeless is mafia. | ||

For someone who so vehemently called me mafia the whole game, he sure does feel fine with simply hopping along with the town sentiment I've created with the wagon on Hopeless. Bear in mind, he would do this regardless of Hopeless' alignment, because if Hopeless is mafia, he cannot risk sticking his neck out to save him when I have town sentiment on my side. He's obviously here, reading the thread, so that means he's not simply inactive. He's lurking, but not providing any input on why he feels Hopeless is a good lynch, and is obviously not invested enough in his read of Palmar to push it over my case on Hopeless. | ||

Due the the possibility of there being 3p, neither scum nor town is not allowed to concede in this game. SK and SP both are compulsive-- they must target someone every night. SK and SP shots cannot be protected against by Doctor, Veteran, JK, or the target being another SK or SP. There can be anywhere between 0 and like 20 of any role in the setup. You are always informed of roleblocks regardless of your own role. This seems to imply that SK/SP can be role blocked, and their shot stopped, it just can't be protected against. This all but confirms Ace as 3P. | ||

You responded with "Sharrant you're wrong, there are no scum vigis left; if there were they wasted their shots on Ace or something. There is no way in hell scum would be sitting on vigi shots this late in the game. Ace is 3p, deal with it. I agree we don't lynch him yet."

The only downside to claiming is that you'll 100% be shot tonight if you do it before the day post, but if you wait until after, we might not get the chance to know. I would claim, because I think I know who it is, and if I can figure it out, mafia probably can as well. You'll literally be giving us a PRIZED piece of the puzzle here, as confirming one of those two is fucking amazing. So do it. Thus ends the concrete portion of today's analysis of the game state. Next, I want to think about a notion I've been considering since Ace flipped third party, and one that may lead to a more complete understanding of the game. It's speculative, but it's interesting. What does Ace flipping third party give us in terms of information? Normally, I don't think it would give much, because neither mafia nor town can know Ace's alignment, so it's possible that mafia vote for him just like town, right? Wrong. It's in mafia's best interest to have KP like a third party poisoner floating around, especially in a scenario like the one we're in now, where town vastly outnumbers mafia. The scum team need all the help they can get, so if they think someone is serial poisoner, they might shy away from lynching him. So that brings me to this post from Sharrant: On May 03 2013 05:02 Sharrant wrote: The only exception to the following is thus: You think Ace is mafia and bussed 2 of his teammates, and possibly a third. No, it's quite demonstrably anti-town to lynch Ace. It's been explained several times. There are three situations where you lynch Ace: One: At least one night before LyLo. Two: If the jailer dies to a night kill. Even if the jailer dies to a night kill, Ace will still be RB'ed and thus cannot kill anyone, and he can be lynched without losing any townies. Three: We have 5 dead mafia and the game has not ended. Why do you people not understand this? Ace is not in any way shape or form confirmed third party. He is the only candidate that could be third party (aside from a survivor) but lynching him is ANTI-TOWN. Lynching him now means we give another night to the mafia members in return for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Unless our jailer pops up and goes "I'm not RB'ing Ace tonight" then there's no reason to lynch him. On top of that, IT'S ENTIRELY POSSIBLE HE'S NOT THIRD PARTY. If there's a scum Vigi still left alive (which is just as likely in my books as Ace being mafia just due to set up analysis) it would explain the exact same scenario we are in. So anyone not looking at that like it's a possibility is either not using their brain, or is mafia trying to push an agenda. Whether or not he's third party, it is not good town play to lynch him. He still may be town, and either way he's one of the stronger analysts in the game. I'd rather have the counsel of a man who knows he is doomed to lose, than potentially kill a townie AND waste time not killing mafia when Ace is already a completely solved situation. TLDR; There's never a situation in which Ace kills a townie unless our jailer dies AND we spend the following day not lynching Ace. Ace is a bad lynch today. I don't want to have to argue this anymore, I'm going to go read stuff, and if anyone tries to dispute this and cannot prove even a single specific scenario where this breaks down, I will just assume you're mafia and go from there because you will be pushing anti-town agendas with the knowledge that it has no benefit to town, and only helps mafia. Most of this is, on its face, reasonable. Actually, I'm pretty sure that Sharrant here believes it to be fine and dandy that Ace not be lynched, and I have a town read on Sharrant. But the notion he spreads here is another thing that is pro-mafia, when you think about it. Keeping Ace perma-jailed actually leaves town more vulnerable to KP than lynching him, because with the town jailer locked up, mafia KP is assuredly going to hit town. Now like I said, I think Sharrant is town. But the idea is there nonetheless, mafia have a clear motive for keeping Ace alive, even if he's confirmed third party. And who argued to keep Ace alive and not lynch him, despite believing him to be third party? Hopeless. At the bottom of page 215, you'll find a conversation between him and I about lynching Ace. I argue for the possibility, and he argues against it. I ask a very straightforward question, one that is at the root of the town win con: why should I, as town, care whether I'm lynching mafia or anti-town third party? Both of those groups have to die for town to win. Yet Hopeless disagrees. Why? It's because he's mafia, showing his true colors. Another interesting notion that goes along with Ace being third party is BC's read of him. If BC believed Ace to be third party, as he claimed to have done the whole game, why did he never push for his lynch? He doesn't care enough about the game to push his reads, even when he is here. I think he mentioned Ace being third party once, the whole game. Why didn't he try to persuade town to lynch him, if he felt that way throughout? Because he's been fixated on me the whole game, using some of town's suspicion of me as an excuse for a scum read to skate by. He doesn't care about solving the game, he cares about not getting lynched. That's why I thought he was survivor, but there are people who play scum the same way. Perhaps BC is one of them. All in all, the Ace flip only makes me more confident in my reads. I could be wrong, I admit, but I doubt it. | ||

On May 05 2013 13:19 Sharrant wrote: Whether or not it happened, to discount scum jailing one of their own on day as "very improbable" is unwise in my opinion. Jailer claiming would give us one confirmed townie, then a dead townie the following night and no protection from that point on. And it wouldn't give us another confirmed townie because scum no doubt put more than two seconds thought into their night one jail. If they did that, they'd first come to your conclusion, and then realize that they only had probably 1/3 chance of hitting a role that would be hampered by a role block, and that they could use their own roleblock for town cred. Now it doesn't matter whether they did that or not, because just the fact that they could have done that means that you can't confirm a second person from a jailer claim. Thus I urge the jailer not to claim. Yes, you can, because scum wouldn't jail their own N1. Stopping a cop/other jailer is so much more important than the "town cred" from a N1 roleblock. | ||

On May 05 2013 14:20 Sharrant wrote: Then how do you explain both of the people roleblocked on night one being alive? Surely if a vet would be considered confirmed town after such an action, the mafia would have had to kill him as quickly as possible, even if they were a mislynch possibility just based on the fact that the jailer could claim. The jailer wouldn't claim until a situation like this, and the chances of the jailer and the scum target both being alive, plus the scum jailer dead at this point in the game are relatively low. All of those things are required for this to be successful. You don't go in to a game, especially on N1 after a mislynch, assuming that your roleblock could somehow later on confirm a townie. You go in trying to stop a cop or a JK from getting off their night actions. It's not that difficult to understand. You're making this far too complicated. It's simple. Town JK roleblocked someone night 1, and he did it trying to protect them. That says nothing about their alignment. Scum used JK on someone night 1 trying to stop a night action, and that makes that person CONFIRMED not mafia. | ||

I disagree about the double stacking, but it's perfectly possible they hit Ace on night one. Mafia players obviously had no traction on day 2, how could they swing the lynch onto him? Besides, what if the jailer is Geript? We'd lose a confirmed townie just to play the wifom game some more on night actions from day one. Because the jailer claim has nothing to do with who scum shot, it has to do with who they jailed. He's obviously not even paying close attention to the thread. And no, it's not a WIFOM game. You're being bad by suggesting it is. Scum jailed a townie night one, and we can figure out who that is if the town jailer claims. The fact that it's one of BC/Palmar is fucking invaluable information. Stop trying to argue against this. | ||

This post is then ignored for the rest of the game. I sort of want to go through Yamato's filter now and see what's up, but at the very least I'm unvoting from Hopeless until I figure this out. That post isn't about "defending scum" it's about giving real discussion on other players besides Clarity/Shiao. It's advocating a longer day. It's doubting a quick lynch. All of these things actually happened after this post, too. If you'll notice, I suspected both of them the night before, and ended the day with my vote on Shiao, despite the majority consensus of lynching Clarity. This one post looks bad out of context. It's been talked about before, but it doesn't mean what you think it means. | ||

The point is that he could have just been bad. There's town explanations for every vote. The fact that my initial gut reaction of calling him mafia for it was right doesn't mean some townie wouldn't do the exact same thing. I wanted to talk about other people. I was successful in getting other players' opinions on Ace/BC/Palmar. I will stand by my intentions. The fact that you're fixated on a meaningless detail of one post in my filter that was taken out of context is ridiculous. Reread the game, because you'll obviously see my actual motive unfold in the conversation that followed that post. | ||

I'll try something different here. Yamato: I am telling you that your own analysis will tell you, in the end, that BC is not scum if you stick to what you've said. Now talk to me about two people that would be scum if BC were as good as confirmed town. Palmar/Hopeless. I might rethink my town read of kush, but only if they both flip town. Palmar's claim is convenient. It's also sub-par for what I expect from Palmar, because it was objectively bad and he's not bad enough as town, I believe, to actually make that claim and expect to be taken seriously. There's also all the other stuff I've said about Palmar and his RB claim, plus my general doubts about his play. I've been letting it skate by because of my read of BC, but if I'm wrong about BC, Palmar is literally the next scummiest person, and he looks fairly bad. Hopeless I've talked about ad nauseum. He tryharded yesterday to look involved, but today he's done little to interact with town, as he has all game. Notably, Palmar also didn't want to lynch Hopeless yesterday because "he had some argument and it made him look townie" which is weak. I've been saying that these three (Palmar/BC/Hopeless) are the only ones I'm worried about for a reason. I've been asking for the claim for a reason, because confirming one of Palmar/BC virtually solves the game. Unless one of these two flips town, I have no reason to doubt the analysis I've made of this game. | ||

What kind of cop cares so little about figuring out his sanity in a game like this that he not only claims after one check, but also FORGETS TO SEND IN A CHECK after having not even confirmed his own sanity? Palmar is not this bad at mafia. | ||

No longer do I have faith in you being town. Your cop claim is alignment null AT BEST, and so is the rest of your play. At worst, it's pretty fucking scummy. You checked OO, supposedly to confirm your own sanity, and then VE, I suppose in the same pursuit? It seems convenient that you checked VE the night he gets shot by mafia. But as I said before, you've constructed a possible narrative to you not being mafia; you're just bad at cop. Why should I believe you? I have no reason to trust the word of Palmar this game. | ||

No, it means you haven't given me any reason to think you're town, and lategame, that's a fucking gigantic problem. In the games I have played with you when you lived past night 1, I could easily read you as town. Most day 1's I can read you as town. I haven't had a solid town read on you the entire game. That's a problem, Palmar. It's enough for me to want to hang you this late in the game. | ||

Just because someone was wrong about the lynch they led on day 1 does not make them a bad shot. Vivax was an unexpected NK, but I don't think anyone was suspicious of him whatsoever. It's important for scum to keep people like Vivax dead. If town is listening to someone, even if that person is wrong at that time, you should kill them. You never let town form a cohesive group. That's what the Vivax/Rayn/OO NKs were all about. No one suspected them, and they were listened to, to a certain extent. | ||

WoS would also be first time scum, and he's too active for that. He's too involved. He's claimed miller within a reasonable context. Not what I'd expect from first time scum. Sharrant is highly involved in the game. and seems genuinely interested in figuring out the game. He's also the only person mafia Clarity ever talked about, which would be weird for his scum mate. I believe Sharrant would be another first-timer, so unless he's a prodigy, he's town. TRN is a mason, and I have little reason to be suspicious of him. When he masoned me, he seemed to want to figure me out, as he had apparently done with geript. Town. Geript is town because I understand how he thinks. I was just in a Hydra with him not long ago. His perspective on the game is similar to what I saw there. He's a little tunnelish, and genuinely doesn't understand my play this game. I believe it. Artanis is also likely town (unless my conspiracy theory comes true) because of how involved he's been in the game since yesterday. He's attempting to figure the game out in a rational way. I have little real reason to suspect him outside of interfering with me wanting to lynch you. BC is town because either you or him is confirmed town, because of what I've talked about his game, and right now I'm working under that assumption. BM is town because he's still playing the game. In Boardwalk, his activity fell off a cliff and he stopped trying later in the game when he realized the scum team's chances were shot. In a similar situation this game. he's still trying. Not to mention, day 1 he tried to talk sense to me in my trollish state. Easily town. Giygas is town through sheer effort. He's tryharding to figure out this game. I don't even have to explain this, it's so obvious. Kush I might be wrong about, but he seems genuine when he just wants a lynch. His accusation of me felt like an accusation town Kush would believe in. He's also not hardbussing, as far as I can see, so he's not mafia. Real heuristics, applied realistically. That leaves you and Hopeless, Palmar. Without your claim, there's nothing to point toward you being town, and the claim is ass. | ||

On April 26 2013 00:12 yamato77 wrote: The reason I think Palmar might be mafia is delving a bit into WIFOM, but it's an interesting thought. The explanation of night actions that we know of is complicated, given that we have 1 role block unaccounted for and 1 KP unaccounted for. I will discuss here the relevant possibilities of all of the combination of events that could have led to the situation we are at now and discuss the likelihood of each event. 1) Palmar is role blocked by town JK and shot, and Vivax is shot, while scum JK either goes unused or was used on a scum player who did not claim it. I feel like this is not very likely. Scum would want to jail offensively, because they have no chance of blocking town KP on themselves or on another town. If true, however, Palmar is confirmed town. 2) Vivax was double-stacked and jailed, and Palmar was jailed by town. Palmar's alignment is unknown, but scum deny town a ton of information, as we see. RB+KP combo is a common mafia tactic for this reason. The variation that semi-confirms Palmar would be if town JK protected Vivax and scum offensively jailed Palmar, and Vivax was still double stacked. That feels more unlikely than the former. 3) Scum double stacked Vivax, role blocked Palmar, and town JK'd offensively and hit mafia, but they didn't claim. I feel this is unlikely, because a role block claim on N1 is a soft town claim, and town JK should be defensive N1 because you can't stop KP. 4) Scum KP was on Vivax and an Vet or SK/SP, who didn't claim being hit, scum JK went unused/used on mafia or was double stacked on Palmar with town JK. Town vet has no reason not to claim, as scum already know from claims that they are vet and can die tonight. Claiming might actually help keep confirmed town alive. Third party are fucked for this rationale, but would have claimed vet with the shot, I believe. This seems unlikely, based on claims so far. So unless there are claims of shots taken or role blocks notified that have yet to be made, it is either 1 or 2, with 2 being more likely in my opinion. Combined with Palmar's somewhat disinterested play, and his insistence that VE is mafia throughout the game while consenting to some of town's wagons, this makes me believe he might be mafia. Perhaps this is the truth even if VE is mafia, as Palmar's "push" of him feels weak, and the VE lynch has been successfully resisted twice now. Regardless of VE's alignment, then, Palmar should be looked upon with some degree of suspicion. I'd consider lynching him today. On April 26 2013 00:35 yamato77 wrote: The reason I'm running through all this is that I'm not particularly happy with any of the lynches that most of town is talking about. VE of yesterday feels somewhat town. I feel like more time would only bury scum VE or give chance to solidify a town read on VE. There's absolutely no rush for his lynch to be finalized. Shaio is easy to mislynch, as evidenced by the suspicion on him in day 2 of British Empire 1, also an instant lynch where he was lurkish, and eventually replaced. The worst part of his filter is the hammer sequence, but even that could be explained by overly eager town who got caught up in the game emotionally. Clarity is always inactive, and him being fixated on Sharrant is not alignment indicative. His case is objectively something that scum like to do, but in the context of the game, I can see a town Clarity who had a late start feeling the need to get his thoughts about the game on the table, even if they weren't about the main lynch candidates. The fact that he basically has no other reads in the game is a point in his favor, but just like VE, we can afford to play a waiting game with him, seeing as we have unlimited time. At the very least, we need real discussion about the alignments of Ace/BC/Palmar before we move forward with any lynch. Ace is the most town out of the three, and BC the least, in my eyes. I'd say a long day is in order, and town need to consolidate pressure upon just a few people so that we can determine their alignments more clearly.

While it can be reasonably assumed that he is actually busy, the amount of this post used to excuse his own inactivity is mind-blowing. He has no original thought about the game, and doesn't seem to care about giving us any valid reasons for voting for VE outside of Palmar's lackluster efforts in pushing for the lynch. And then there's the bolded, his "reaction" to the tube modkill, that sets something off in my head. It seems unnatural and forced to go "(lol btw!)" in the middle of this post. I'd be happy with lynching him, if we feel we need to consolidate on a lynch. I've advocated playing a waiting game, but I saw it mentioned that we've only really talked about lynching between him/Clarity today, and I agree, so perhaps it is best if we move on. Another thing I thought to look at was the WHOLE votecount from day 1, not just the Oats wagon: There are some changes to this: So the votecount itself is somewhat difficult to analyse, seeing as most people were either on me or Oats, but the people on Rayn do seem out of place, and it is even more weird that two of them managed to get themselves on to Oats before his lynch; Sylencia and Hopeless. Also note that Shiao's only vote of the whole day was the hammer on Oats. And people want to say that it isn't scummy? Yeah, no. But as before, there were multiple vote changes inbetween, and they are worth looking into. To begin why did Sylencia decide to change to Oats? Seems more of a case for voting for "bad town" than scum, which seems like a slip of a scum mindset, in my opinion. Why? Because it is something I run into as scum, how to formulate a read on a town player and call them scum so I can vote for them. Most of the time, it is "bad town" that get mislynched, so the difference becomes vague. Justifying a vote by saying that someone is "bad for town" is an easy scum out, because town players can and will be anti-town on many occasions. Yet this is Sylencia's mindset, and how he justifies the vote on Oats. Just from this voting analysis, I feel he might be mafia. I have yet to analyse his filter in totality, but given this, I will definitely give it a look. Hopeless. + Show Spoiler + Get it? Anyway, this is Wonder's SECOND EVER mention of Oatsmaster, and the first one where he gives any inclination of thinking him mafia. AMAZING! HOW DID HE REACH THIS SECRET CONCLUSION?!?!?! Wow. I'm not saying this is totally regurgitation of other people's arguments, but it is. This also come AFTER his vote, where he's fully aware that he's putting Oats one vote away from lynch. And then guess what happens... I unvote (temporarily delaying the lynch), Sylencia manages to vote AND: The hammer! This all happens within the span of ~2 hours, mind you, when I'm screaming at the thread not to lynch Oats. Say what you want about me, but all three of these votes are particularly HORRID, and all of them are either switches off Rayn (a wagon that seems inherently scummy, in that people that switched off it didn't seem to change their read on him much) or the player's first vote of the game. Is there a chance they are town? Sure. I'd probably say Sylencia has the most chance to be town, since when compared to the other two, his vote looks the MOST explained, despite the fishy nature of the post. The other two, however, give very little indication that they think Oats is mafia before they vote, and the hammer in particular looks like TEXTBOOK MAFIA trying to find a good reason to just lynch a town. Notably, I did something JUST like this day 1 of British Empire 1 (also instant majority), where I fabricated suspicion of a town-created wagon on a town player and managed to hammer him for the lynch. Only this is even worse, and more obvious, because they didn't even manage to look like they thought about it before obviously putting Oats in danger of, and actually being lynch. That's VCA done right, bros. And from it, I find the willingness to lynch the fuck out of Shiapi, because this is bullshit. No matter how much post-hoc justification he gives, there is only mafia motivation to be seen in what he has done. On May 01 2013 14:26 yamato77 wrote: Hopeless. He's mafia. Lynch him.

Much more likely Sharrant is town, even if he is relatively inactive. Artanis replaced Drazak, who was a lurky, inactive player as mafia in Hydra. Perhaps this trend carried over to this game, and he rolled mafia again? Is Drazak known for being inactive as town? Artanis also suffers from the same syndrome mafia DarthPunk did in Personality 2, one of complete apathy upon replacing in, and excusing his lack of contribution with the idea that he's "still catching up." He is also one of a very few people who have correctly read my alignment. Is that just an attempt to buddy me, or is he actually like CC and Palmar in that he has a brain? Difficult to tell in this town. Seems like a good candidate to pressure for lynch, because if town, he might actually do something. He is relatively decent at scum, however, so he may be difficult to hammer home. Stutters replaced DH, who I think is just AWOL from the forum altogether. Stutter's inactivity is typical of his play, so there's literally nothing alignment indicative about it. What he has said in the thread seems logical enough, and it would be his first scum game ever, so it's probably better to treat him as if he's town until there is some indication that he isn't. Not a good lynch, because it's 75/25 that he's town, IMO. So it's Hopeless/Artanis as possible mafia left out of the "non-vet" group. Next I'll take a serious look at the vet group and determine the actual possibilities that lie therein. On May 01 2013 14:39 yamato77 wrote: Oh, Bill Murray. I kinda want to think he's town off his day 1, but he's been real AFK since, and he had this penchant of a disappearing act late in the game as mafia in Boardwalk as well. His alignment is difficult to ascertain with any certainty because of this dichotomy. On May 01 2013 14:58 yamato77 wrote: BC/Palmar seem like they should both be dead. In most of the games I have played with them, they are high-priority NK targets and usually dead by now. In fact, I don't think I've ever seen either of them live this long in a game I've played with them. Regardless of me being paranoid about the alignments of the veteran players or not, something is suspect about this. the analysis that says that there is a vet who wants to hide among the alive vets seems accurate, and it only becomes more damning when one considers that ALL of the NKs we have seen have been on mid/low-tier players in terms of activity and skill level. By this same logic, it seems odd that Ace is alive. While all of these players have been under some degree of suspicion this game, this fact hasn't stopped scum teams from shooting high-priority targets before. Out of the three mentioned, Ace seems like the least likely to be mafia, simply from activity levels and attitude about the game. But he also has a reputation as a legendary scum player, so it is difficult for me to cognitively cross him off my list of suspects, and my conspiracy theories only serve to move him further null in my mind. It may be a decent idea to ignore him for a short while until we get more information about the alignments of the other two. So back to Palmar/BC; I find it more likely that Palmar is town than BC. Palmar, while relatively inactive, has attempted at times to push his own agenda in lynching VE, good or bad. He's also had a believable narrative in checking/claiming a red check on BC. Is he capable of this sort of play as mafia? It's possible, but I feel it likely that Palmar is actually telling the truth that he simply cba to do anything. It's an illness that often strikes Palmar. BC doesn't seem to have pushed for anyone's lynch but mine this whole game. From my perspective, this is hilariously weak, since I know I'm town. It's unfortunate that his schedule restricts him from being active most of the time people are attempting to decide upon lynches. His strongest stance since saying I'm scum is saying that Palmar is, which seems to be in line with general town sentiment. But I've never seen BC play past D1/N1, so I can't know if this play is his typical town play or not. I will say that in the games I have played with him, he seems more assertive about his reads and more aggressive in hunting them. I'm not getting that feeling this game, especially as the game wears on. Out of the two, I would lynch BC. I'd much rather lynch Hopeless, however, over either of them. I'll take a better look at his voting patterns throughout the game and come to a much more defined conclusion. On May 01 2013 15:29 yamato77 wrote: Hopeless' Official Vote Filter Go on, look at it, it's short. He has 5 vote this game, and they are not spread evenly throughout the days. I'm going to match them to the corresponding reasons he gives in thread and analyse his voting strategy this game, all in chronological order to see how it's changed, or hasn't, over time. DAY 1 This post has been given as reason for hopeless being town, because it shows effort. I disagree. Most of the things Hopeless argues about in this post are completely pointless, and none of it has almost any bearing on anyone's alignment. Again, I'll break it down. 1) VE shouldn't be a town read because everyone had to look at the OP for their role, or whatever. I don't even understand what he's arguing here, and he doesn't pursue it. It's a non-issue, and it seems more like he's defending himself for doing what he did than actually pushing any sort of suspicion on VE. It's stupid, and not worth talking about. 2) Vivax gave out too many "free town reads" or whatever with his "no scum have posted before this!" post. What the fuck, who cares. Why does he care what Vivax is doing with his reads this game, unless he thinks he is mafia? It's an absurd argument, and again pointless. Just as pointless to argue that Palmar is suspicious for giving Vivax a townread over it. Another thing that seems self-serving, in that it's defending his contributions this game. 3) He's shutting down town reads of people. That point actually seems true, since that's most of what he's talked about. Valid criticism, but not all that damning. 4) The case on Rayn, which was woefully short and inadequate. Not only do we have the luxury of knowing that he was wrong here, but his arguments aren't even that strong. He takes a couple of posts out of context in an argument between Rayn and Sharrant, and calls Rayb mafia because they sound odd, or something to that effect. It's largely bogus, and Hopeless is obviously just taking sides in a town vs. town war and hoping to fan the flames. I view this as a point against him, not for him. So when we break that post down, it's actually fairly apparent that his contribution esd largely self-serving, and have fairly clear mafia motivations. He wants to clear his image and appear to be "scumhunting" while he argues over town reads, so he slaps an ill-thought-out case down on Rayn and proceeds to do little else day 1. This is his only other vote on Day 1, and as I analysed before, it's a shit vote with literally no prior explanation, and one that should have been taken more seriously. Hopeless CLEARLY understands that this puts Oats at real risk of being hammered, but there's no prior indication from his filter that he's considered this fact at all. The only justification comes AFTERWARD, which is too little too late. You can judge for yourselves how you feel about this, but I will note that Shiao's vote was ALSO justified largely post-hoc, and I also analysed that vote to be mafia motivated for the same reasons. And look what he flipped. DAY 2: In the Sharrant vs. Clarity thing that happaned day 2, Hopeless took the side of mafia, after having taken Sharrant's side day 1. Purely as an association case, this looks horrible, but when you consider that Hopeless' read of Sharrant changed so drastically overnight, it becomes even more suspicious. I'm not at all impressed with this vote. ...Why? Post-hoc justification, yet again. He stays consistent in that he "didn't trust Sharrant" so he didn't vote for Clarity. But what did he do? He defended Shiao's image to the thread and threw shit at the people on his wagon. Why? Who the fuck knows. Before now, I see almost zero mention of Shiao and his read on him, except that he's "willing to hammer him". Not looking great for Hopeless here in this department. Day 3... Nothing. While we did lynch quick, he made no vote. A non-issue, I suppose. Day 4: Follows along with town's plan, altogether blending in. Overall, it's fairly clear to me how little Hopeless cares about finding a good lynch. He doesn't spend much effort in the thread trying to discern people's alignments, and his votes on Day 1+2 look highly suspect. Just from looking at these posts, and some context in his filter, it's easy to discern that Hopeless is mafia. On May 04 2013 17:32 yamato77 wrote: First of all, I want to make an immediate point. On night one, there were two role blocks. We've seen a mafia JK flip. We know he was responsible for one, and that person is confirmed not mafia. The other one could very well be the result of a town JK, and that person's alignment would still be unknown. However, by process of elimination, if the town JK claims, we have two confirmed town, and one of them is Palmar/BC. The only downside to claiming is that you'll 100% be shot tonight if you do it before the day post, but if you wait until after, we might not get the chance to know. I would claim, because I think I know who it is, and if I can figure it out, mafia probably can as well. You'll literally be giving us a PRIZED piece of the puzzle here, as confirming one of those two is fucking amazing. So do it. Thus ends the concrete portion of today's analysis of the game state. Next, I want to think about a notion I've been considering since Ace flipped third party, and one that may lead to a more complete understanding of the game. It's speculative, but it's interesting. What does Ace flipping third party give us in terms of information? Normally, I don't think it would give much, because neither mafia nor town can know Ace's alignment, so it's possible that mafia vote for him just like town, right? Wrong. It's in mafia's best interest to have KP like a third party poisoner floating around, especially in a scenario like the one we're in now, where town vastly outnumbers mafia. The scum team need all the help they can get, so if they think someone is serial poisoner, they might shy away from lynching him. So that brings me to this post from Sharrant: Most of this is, on its face, reasonable. Actually, I'm pretty sure that Sharrant here believes it to be fine and dandy that Ace not be lynched, and I have a town read on Sharrant. But the notion he spreads here is another thing that is pro-mafia, when you think about it. Keeping Ace perma-jailed actually leaves town more vulnerable to KP than lynching him, because with the town jailer locked up, mafia KP is assuredly going to hit town. Now like I said, I think Sharrant is town. But the idea is there nonetheless, mafia have a clear motive for keeping Ace alive, even if he's confirmed third party. And who argued to keep Ace alive and not lynch him, despite believing him to be third party? Hopeless. At the bottom of page 215, you'll find a conversation between him and I about lynching Ace. I argue for the possibility, and he argues against it. I ask a very straightforward question, one that is at the root of the town win con: why should I, as town, care whether I'm lynching mafia or anti-town third party? Both of those groups have to die for town to win. Yet Hopeless disagrees. Why? It's because he's mafia, showing his true colors. Another interesting notion that goes along with Ace being third party is BC's read of him. If BC believed Ace to be third party, as he claimed to have done the whole game, why did he never push for his lynch? He doesn't care enough about the game to push his reads, even when he is here. I think he mentioned Ace being third party once, the whole game. Why didn't he try to persuade town to lynch him, if he felt that way throughout? Because he's been fixated on me the whole game, using some of town's suspicion of me as an excuse for a scum read to skate by. He doesn't care about solving the game, he cares about not getting lynched. That's why I thought he was survivor, but there are people who play scum the same way. Perhaps BC is one of them. All in all, the Ace flip only makes me more confident in my reads. I could be wrong, I admit, but I doubt it. Good luck, town. | ||

If you look at ace all day 2 he thought if clarity flipped mafia shiao was innocent. He followed through on that. Caught d5 based on roleblocks is only half true. he was suspected of being 3p for ages and because he didnt claim survivor he got shafted for it. Also given that yamato has not really done anything major this game, its not eliminating a good player. It also doesn't make yamato more likely to be town. I've done over 10x the analysis of the game you have. It's a statement of complete ignorance to say I've done nothing. You've literally done NOTHING but call me scum this game. Nothing. Good play, BC. You're a TOP PLAYER FOR SURE | ||

I might rethink my town read of kush, but only if they both flip town. Palmar's claim is convenient. It's also sub-par for what I expect from Palmar, because it was objectively bad and he's not bad enough as town, I believe, to actually make that claim and expect to be taken seriously. There's also all the other stuff I've said about Palmar and his RB claim, plus my general doubts about his play. I've been letting it skate by because of my read of BC, but if I'm wrong about BC, Palmar is literally the next scummiest person, and he looks fairly bad. Hopeless I've talked about ad nauseum. He tryharded yesterday to look involved, but today he's done little to interact with town, as he has all game. Notably, Palmar also didn't want to lynch Hopeless yesterday because "he had some argument and it made him look townie" which is weak. I've been saying that these three (Palmar/BC/Hopeless) are the only ones I'm worried about for a reason. I've been asking for the claim for a reason, because confirming one of Palmar/BC virtually solves the game. Unless one of these two flips town, I have no reason to doubt the analysis I've made of this game. Put 2+2 together, BC. | ||
