I really would like more discussion on rayn than "he is good if not we can kill him later".
1) I have no idea how good he is, and even if he was good, there's no reason to give "good players" a "free multi day pass".
2) This doesn't actually work. In Liquid City Mafia, I was caught and exposed early by BloodyCobbler because of my weak scum play, yet no one actually lynched me.
3) Traditionally mafia KP is based upon mafia #. Lowering mafia # lowers mafia KP.

I'm more interested in DP defending his claim as "what only townie would do" and then saying he is a good scum player and would never draw attention to himself like that as scum.

you don't have to shoot now.... Like obviously I don't want to die. I would RATHER be vigged than lynched though. if it comes to that. Hopefully you can all read my alignment by all the posts I am making clearly outlining the reasons behind my actions.

How about you stop defending your sole action and start scumhunting instead?

Another loaded question, pushing suspicion on him without any justification.

##Vote raynpelikoneet

Instead of addressing this primary suspicion on him, he chooses to instead address Vivax's fake - role name business, which wasn't even the primary source of suspicion on him. This is cherry picking; this is sidestepping.


Flag 3:
False "contribution".

I don't remember who said this, but they said they liked rayn's most recent contributions. Well they should read again. Pick out just how many of his posts are questions. Those posts are not alignment telling - scum can do it no problem because it's so easy. In fact I resort to asking questions as scum because it's safe and I know I won't get flak for it, but it makes it look like I'm participating in discussion.

You have to look into purpose and motivation behind the questions. The ultimate difference in scum and town is that town want scum dead while scum want to look like they want scum dead. Therefore, the ultimate heuristic in finding scum is to ask "are they actually trying to get scum lynched?" From his filter, rayn's only "meaningful" suspicion is on OO. You can see this because he tries to get people to focus on OO. However, they are in the form of "what do you think of OO? why not lynch him?", when he himself had given no proper reasoning to lynching him. There is no honest effort to make players understand his view of OO. It is uncertain if he actually wants OO (or anyone in particular) lynched or not. Makings of scum play - as long as it isn't scum, they don't care where the lynch lands.

Everyone who hasn't, and everyone who has needs to give their updated views on rayn. If you want to push for someone else, you best have something more than a 1 liner saying "he looks bad".


Rayne did respond to this but I don't find his response sufficient:

##Vote raynpelikoneet

1) No it's not. It's an opinion that i expressed as simple as it was possible. I think claiming miller in a setup where the number (or existance) of millers is not known is stupid or scum.

2) The bolded part you quoted; I think as town you should play as pro-town as possible, right? Cops do not check people they think are town right? I didn't understand why DP, at the start of the game, was worried about being checked by a cop. For me it seemed like he was scum who was afraid of being checked. I hope you get what i mean.

3 and 4) As is said, i unfortunately have limited time. I was not interested in kitaman at that time, i did not know what to make of him calling WoS scum that early in the game, so i ignored it. I wanted to hear more from DP, and wanted him to do something else than to defend himself. Everyone was discussing him at that moment, i wanted to know what else than his claim was on his mind.

If i got something else to clarify to you, ask me.



About why i am voting for OO:

What Prome said about OO and OO having an explanation to the DP night kill. In top of that DP was suspicious of OO, makes sense. Another thing that's very very odd from OO:

OO called me out for meta reasons. I then posted in thread that i have a tight work schedule. What does OO answer:

Oh does this mean you are more busy than last game, Rayn? I'll keep that in mind then.

As far as my comment, it's exactly what it said. You asked a shit load of questions last game as town and it worked very well for a) me seeing that we were having similar thought processes and b) you generated a lot of things to analyze by prodding people. I wasn't seeing that from you so far here but if that's due to a change in your schedule then that potentially changes my expectations of town you in this scenario.

In my opinion this has nothing to do with meta, at all. If i post less i post less, but i still act as i usually do whatever my alignment is. OO is dropping his meta scum-read on me because of my work schedule. How does that make sense? Right, it doesn't, unless he knows i'm town and made up a meta read on me before i was even able to fully contribute to anything but DP-stuff.


shiro: You are saying that if WoS is town i am scum. How does that make sense? Are you saying i am not able to form town reads on people other people think is scum? I have given my reasons why i think WoS is town, are they bullshit? Elaborate please.


Ryan doesn't address two of Sloosh's stronger points: that Ryan is asking more questions than he is making contributions or providing opinions, in such a way as to appear to be contributing without actually contributing, and that he's not engaging with his serious opponents but instead cherry-picking weaker posts to respond to.

That said I like that ryan is actually taking a serious look at oatsmaster, who i still think is more likely to be scum.

well go through my filter and you'll see why, its still only day one so im going by subtle clues and gutreads which is how I play every game. you guys may not like it but I usually find scum.

I dont find any of the 3 people you just listed scummy as of now. VisceraEyes also concerns me as well as shirokami due to his massive playstyle difference from the last game we just played where he was town.

Another loaded question, pushing suspicion on him without any justification.

##Vote raynpelikoneet

Instead of addressing this primary suspicion on him, he chooses to instead address Vivax's fake - role name business, which wasn't even the primary source of suspicion on him. This is cherry picking; this is sidestepping.

False "contribution".

I don't remember who said this, but they said they liked rayn's most recent contributions. Well they should read again. Pick out just how many of his posts are questions. Those posts are not alignment telling - scum can do it no problem because it's so easy. In fact I resort to asking questions as scum because it's safe and I know I won't get flak for it, but it makes it look like I'm participating in discussion.

You have to look into purpose and motivation behind the questions. The ultimate difference in scum and town is that town want scum dead while scum want to look like they want scum dead. Therefore, the ultimate heuristic in finding scum is to ask "are they actually trying to get scum lynched?" From his filter, rayn's only "meaningful" suspicion is on OO. You can see this because he tries to get people to focus on OO. However, they are in the form of "what do you think of OO? why not lynch him?", when he himself had given no proper reasoning to lynching him. There is no honest effort to make players understand his view of OO. It is uncertain if he actually wants OO (or anyone in particular) lynched or not. Makings of scum play - as long as it isn't scum, they don't care where the lynch lands.

Everyone who hasn't, and everyone who has needs to give their updated views on rayn. If you want to push for someone else, you best have something more than a 1 liner saying "he looks bad".


Rayne did respond to this but I don't find his response sufficient:

In light of the DarthPunk flip I went back and reread people's stances on him. Because he had so much spotlight on him, scum would be compelled to make an opinion on him, or at least comment on him. What is important is to see how people justify their suspicions / read on him - town players have straightforward explanations while mafia try to make stuff up. Out of them, rayn sticks out the most:

1) No it's not. It's an opinion that i expressed as simple as it was possible. I think claiming miller in a setup where the number (or existance) of millers is not known is stupid or scum.

2) The bolded part you quoted; I think as town you should play as pro-town as possible, right? Cops do not check people they think are town right? I didn't understand why DP, at the start of the game, was worried about being checked by a cop. For me it seemed like he was scum who was afraid of being checked. I hope you get what i mean.

3 and 4) As is said, i unfortunately have limited time. I was not interested in kitaman at that time, i did not know what to make of him calling WoS scum that early in the game, so i ignored it. I wanted to hear more from DP, and wanted him to do something else than to defend himself. Everyone was discussing him at that moment, i wanted to know what else than his claim was on his mind.

If i got something else to clarify to you, ask me.



About why i am voting for OO:

What Prome said about OO and OO having an explanation to the DP night kill. In top of that DP was suspicious of OO, makes sense. Another thing that's very very odd from OO:

OO called me out for meta reasons. I then posted in thread that i have a tight work schedule. What does OO answer:

Oh does this mean you are more busy than last game, Rayn? I'll keep that in mind then.

As far as my comment, it's exactly what it said. You asked a shit load of questions last game as town and it worked very well for a) me seeing that we were having similar thought processes and b) you generated a lot of things to analyze by prodding people. I wasn't seeing that from you so far here but if that's due to a change in your schedule then that potentially changes my expectations of town you in this scenario.

In my opinion this has nothing to do with meta, at all. If i post less i post less, but i still act as i usually do whatever my alignment is. OO is dropping his meta scum-read on me because of my work schedule. How does that make sense? Right, it doesn't, unless he knows i'm town and made up a meta read on me before i was even able to fully contribute to anything but DP-stuff.


shiro: You are saying that if WoS is town i am scum. How does that make sense? Are you saying i am not able to form town reads on people other people think is scum? I have given my reasons why i think WoS is town, are they bullshit? Elaborate please.


Ryan doesn't address two of Sloosh's stronger points: that Ryan is asking more questions than he is making contributions or providing opinions, in such a way as to appear to be contributing without actually contributing, and that he's not engaging with his serious opponents but instead cherry-picking weaker posts to respond to.

That said I like that ryan is actually taking a serious look at oatsmaster, who i still think is more likely to be scum.

See this is exactly what I mean. WTF is this? Look at how many of my posts are about Oats. How can I take this fucking game seriously?


true but no one is listening to you, so it doesn't really help - i want to get some discussion on him.

what does me leaving you out have to do with taking the game seriously? like, huh?

I really would like more discussion on rayn than "he is good if not we can kill him later".
1) I have no idea how good he is, and even if he was good, there's no reason to give "good players" a "free multi day pass".
2) This doesn't actually work. In Liquid City Mafia, I was caught and exposed early by BloodyCobbler because of my weak scum play, yet no one actually lynched me.
3) Traditionally mafia KP is based upon mafia #. Lowering mafia # lowers mafia KP.

There is 0 contribution in this post. He sheeps Prome, comments that he doesn't like OO's analysis on himself but neglects to give any concrete proof or explanation, pre-emptively shirks responsibility for making a correct lynch by saying that he cannot read him, admits to ignoring him, and still concludes that he is a good lynch.

Dont understand your question since I started the prplhz scumread, please rephrase your question.


Could you either post a second scumread and explanation for it, or evaluate one of the cases someone else has made on someone with votes on them, and explain why you disagree


Alright sure. I just posted a few more of my scumreads above so ill evaluate why I think WoS is not mafia. This goes back to the same analysis I played in my previous game to find a mafia, except now I am using it to find a town. When I am town, I get really fucking mad when people are going to lynch me because I know that im innocent and it gets me emotional to know that I played so fucking poorly that people are going to lynch me and we are going to lose for it. When im guilty I try to stay cool and reason with people and it is much easier to know since I
inherently know that I am guilty so there's nothing to be upset about, people just played better than me and found me out.

with how WoS is getting so mad, I really don't see him flipping mafia but of course not everyone is the same. He could be mafia, but I do not think so.

obviously there's no one way to know somebody is mafia or this game would be boring, not all mad people are innocent so you have to use your intuition at that point.

If he flips mafia I look really bad at this point and hes scheduled to be lynched, so think about that for later when deciding on my alignment. Would I really stick myself out this far and look bad on either flip for WoS if I was mafia? Now THAT makes no sense at all.

I'm not saying you're mafia dude, chillax. I'll make a more serious read and case against you. When I call you mafia you know i'm calling you mafia. Why so paranoid?

I'm just saying you need better reasoning than what you got to not lynch WoS. Anyone can fake being mad.


Im paranoid because I don't like any of the lynches people are on atm and with so many people on me just like the last game (although I did make it to the final day as a result) I know that town is facing an upward battle for a while.

Why We Should Lynch VayneAuthority

VayneAuthority's play can be summarized quite succinctly as "hands off". Early on he wanted to sit back and wait for the NKs to analyze, once the flips happened, he voted prplhz for "saying hi to Kita and nothing else" and has since been completely absent from town discussion aside from popping in when his name is called.

Hey Vayne, it's time for you to come out and play!

Unlike some other low content players in the game who are doing strictly speaking nothing (BM comes to mind, sinani), Vayne is putting on the facade of being active by posting in response to people mentioning him, and throwing out one-liners regarding things that are currently happening in the thread. I find this far more suspicious than players who are doing, literally, nothing because it allows Vayne to keep off others' radars.

Who does Vayne find suspicious? The only person that comes to mind is prplhz. Let's see why.

Im not gonna go through everyones filter so far since this thread is already huge, but as I said any interaction where some one goes out of their way to talk to kita. for example, prplhz saying hi to him when not addressed at all.

It makes them scummy, in my opinion, because kita died tonight. Got dat kita on your mind, whos gonna pop in your head when your thinking who to night kill?

What do you think about VayneAuthority? His vote on prplhz seems opportunistic and he basically parroted your reasoning for voting rayn as his reasoning for suspecting prplhz...at least that's what it looks like to me. Are you similarly suspicious of prplhz for his interaction (saying "hi") with Kita?


how can I parrot some one when I spoke first? You are getting real suspicious with messing so many facts up and switching around on so many bandwagons. one second you are voting with me on prplhz the next second you're going ballistic on me for voting him. make up your mind and get your facts straight.

Other people are saying you are playing differently as well so I keeping an eye on you from now on.

bleh.
Choose a dude. Point out 2 things that make him scum.
GOOO

@kitaman27 Hey! How's your stance on this whole miller thing?

Why isn't Viscera "MostActiveGuyInMafia" Eyes around?


Direct question at kita, adds to my suspicion since he threw VisceraEyes in there who is also bugging me now. Viscera is either a PR or mafia not sure which yet.

@slOosh You suck


what the hell is that? out of nowhere and then sloosh starts talking a little later...are they in communication or what? so confused by this post.


My problem with his reasoning is this: he's done nothing to try and discern prplhz alignment aside from look at his interaction with Kita. Cool. Except - he doesn't explain why this post HAS to come from a scumPrplhz. I don't even understand what makes this interaction incriminating at all - he asks Kita for his stance on the whole miller thing. From a town perspective, I can see prplhz asking a veteran player his stance on something relevant to what's happening in the thread. From a scum perspective, what does it gain for prplhz to kill Kitaman after asking him this question?

The explanation is lacking critical thought and it's been his only vote in the game.

He also is suspicious of me now, because I'm suspicious of him I guess. But what has he done to push a lynch on either of prplhz or myself? Nothing. Not one thing. He's not trying to discern our alignments, he's not trying to get us lynched. He's just faking contribution and trying to skate by. I find him more suspicious by far than zero contributors, and I find him FAR more suspicious than WaveofShadow, who is in the thread obviously trying to find scum WHILE being tunneled to death by a more experienced player.

Everyone should be voting for VayneAuthority for today's lynch. It's the right thing to do


You're lead on me isn't any stronger than my lead on prphlz, in fact I would argue its weaker. Just because you don't like my playstyle im mafia? Im a self admitted bad town because I never attempt to scumhunt based off conventional means, and ill always stick to my gutreads and subtle clues because its what has worked for me. I have been playing this game for far longer than most people here and it would be a mistake to write me off as a garbage scum player thats just trying to skate by.

Still waiting for your reply viscera. Interesting how you are telling BH to stop tunneling while you are now tunneling me. What makes me scum and who are my scumbuddies VE?


also I like how viscera skipped over an entire page of questions directed at him, including mine and tries to accuse others of trying to skate by. guys hilarious. answer some questions or no one is going to take you seriously

You think I'm town and you say this?
Personally I don't put a lot of value in emotion reads barring a couple specific examples.


how is your filter unstable? you start out posting normally then go ballistic when accused by BH and you guys go back and forth for a while. take a look at prphlz's filter and tell me it isnt all over the place. Hes attached to nobody and nothing.

The only question I even see is the bit about you parroting slOosh or SnB or whomever when you said that shit about prplhz...but you'll notice that in my actual case against you I didn't mention that did I? You're right in that you spoke first, but ultimately it doesn't matter in my read of you because that reasoning is weak and you've given no other explanation for it.

You're right. You didn't parrot in your reasoning. Point conceded. Any further questions you have you will have to either point to or restate.


I was merely speaking for others, theres like half a page in thread with 3-4 back to back posts directed at you. That is my only clarification from you.

I don't get it Vayne, which is scummy being detached and emotional or being tunnely and not emotional? Because you're accusing two people with very different playstyles, one of which your reasoning is weak and the other is blatant OMGUS, and both are NOT exhibiting the tendencies you're saying the other exhibits as evidence of their guilt.

Furthermore, you accuse me of tunneling you when that's very far from the truth. I've been explicit in who I've been looking at. I'll concede that I haven't really gotten back with the thread regarding every filter I've gone over, but in general that means that I found nothing of note in the filters in question, not that I'm not looking at them. If I say I'm doing something I'm doing it, and I've been willing to look at targets who aren't you all game. Just because now I'm ready to make a case and get you lynched, that does not mean that I'm tunneling.


I evaluate each case in an individual basis, there's no catch all as I was talking about with BH before. prphlz seems flippant, unattached, and making zero case for me to believe he is doing anything town related. As for your OMGUS thing, its fine if prphlz does it like he just did but if I do it its scummy? somethings off here.

Looking at your filter you havent spoken about anything except me in a while, yes I would call that tunneling.

We should really think about consolidating because apparently lynch is in like 5 hours and d1 nolynch is bad. I can't really be bothered to rally a bunch of people on d1 who'd rather ignore me. I still prefer HiroPro.

VayneAuthority could very well be scum. From his filter he seems like a thoughtful guy but his case on me is just bullshit and when confronted with that he doesn't try to explain himself, he simply launches an ad hominem. Why would he do that if he thinks I'm scum who is just calling his case bad? It seems like he's just uncomfortable with my opinion on him because he knows I'm town.

##Vote VayneAuthority

Good night.


pretty much guarantees my opinion that hes scum right here, the old nice cop/bad cop routine. Dude seems cool and thoughtful and blah blah blah....hes scum!

doesn't get any worse than that for me. Won't be changing my vote ever.
