In all seriousness, I do want to policy lynch Oats. Every game I've played with him, he's contributed to a toxic town atmosphere by tunneling obv-townies beyond the point of reason. I'm all for killing him until I find an actual scum-read.

Calm the fuck down. Jesus. Hapa is like the most obvious scum ever. WE don't need to overreact off one throwaway post. PLus it's his first post of the game and oates was being silly. Seriously though, what the fuck is going on with everyone this game?

I'm not going to make the same mistake as last game and say that Cora is 100% town. Scum are capable of early-game sheannanies like that. However his behavior so far is indicative of a fearless townie. He's posting rhyming lyrics for crying out loud. We'll see if he can keep up with his behavior of course, but so far so good from him.

That being said, nothing you're jumping on is remotely scummy. Like, how on earth is a policy lynch on Marv alignment indicative?

Until goodkarma was scum last game yet no one listened to us :D


I'm not saying that Oats never gets things right. However he has a propensity of locking onto obv-townies, especially town-leaders. I firmly believe that his behavior, especially on Day 1, does more harm than help for the town. I don't mind aggression, but he just locks on to people, calls them scum, constantly antagonizes them, refuses to listen to any logic whatsoever.

For example, how long did he tunnel me in that game? I consider myself a fairly level-headed player, and I was seriously contemplating shooting him with my mayor shot solely because of his disruptive presence. Or him tunneling obv-town Palmar in Red Team's Prize. The list goes on.

I said I would breadcrumb my alignment to you.

But since you're scum, you know my alignment already.

Every game. Every day.

I don't think I've ever advocated a policy lynch on a player. Ever. That's how disruptive and anti-town I find your tunneling antics to be.

DP meta please


I don't have a very firm grasp on his meta - he's one of the best scum-players on TL. I have some ways to read him though, but revealing my hand now is incredibly counter-productive to those efforts.

We're at about ~5 pages of filter, so you should have enough information to carry this game. What are your thoughts on the players who have posted so far?

Coag and DP are the only people I'm actually worried about at this point.


Talk to me about DP a bit. It usually takes me a while to have a concrete read on him, so I'm surprised you have worries this early.

He just hasn't done anything that would make me swing either way about him. This continued angry-man act is a bit disconcerting.


So you are 'worried about me for no reason' and the only thing you mention is something which i have done consistently as both alignments since the beginning of time.

Why would you mention me at all if you actually had no reason for the read? And what about coag? What has coag done to make you worried?

It's precisely that neither of you have done anything particularly townish at all that worries me. It's obviously early, but I have quite a few soft town reads already.


This makes absolutely no sense. DarthPunk is one of the most notoriously hard-to-read players on TL. Why would him not doing "anything particularly townish" be a cause for concern? Especially when he's incredibly good at acting "townish" as scum?

It's a process of elimination, obviously. I'm not worried about the other people who have posted. I am still perplexed about DP and Coag's alignment. I don't think there's that much to argue about, really. Both of you seem to be admitting to the fact that nothing he has done is alignment indicative.


So what is it exactly that you mean by "worry"? If you think DP is a null read, that's a very odd word choice.

Also, does the bolded imply that you have town-reads on every other person who has posted in this game? Because I find that very hard to believe given the sample-size thusfar.

Yamato is pretty readable. He doesn't get mislynched as town very often, and when he does, it's often pretty terrible. I'll explain if/when I make a scum/town case on him.

I have weak town reads on most of the other players in the game, for varying reasons. At the very least, I can ignore them until later in the game when their alignment should be clearer.

Why DP isn't one of those town reads is cause for concern, yes. He's been perfectly readable in the past.


You have town-reads on SloOsh, Sylencia, and ObviousOne already? This needs some 'splainin.

"Oh dudes Yamato is totes scum, but I could be remembering wrong."

You seem more interested in criticizing his play rather than calling him scummy. Hell you're not really calling him scummy >>

Sloosh and Sylencia are people to ignore until later in the game. Sloosh is obvious as town and absolutely lurk-fucking-tastic as mafia. No need to concern myself when time will tell with him. Sylencia might be a coinflip either way, to be honest, so I ignore him until he flips or something.


Ok, that's fair.

OO's townread of Oats is ballsy at that point. I don't expect a scum OO to jump into the game calling someone under fire town.


Offering a town-read and calling him a good policy-lynch isn't exactly a "ballsy" opening.

Coag is worth worrying about because I have no idea how he plays, but he's obviously here, reading the thread, just not very active except when mentioned.


I really don't understand why you equate null with "worry-some"

We've had our fun with marv, and now it's time to move onto more productive things, such as thoughts on players that have actually... you know... posted?

Regarding Oats

I'm really, really sad that no one has asked me about my unvote of Oats.

@Hapa:

Because his play so far has been based on antagonizing every single person in the thread. There's no scum survival instinct in his play.

He's playing like a paranoid townie. Which is why I have severe objections to how you interpreted his play so far:

On June 21 2013 14:55 goodkarma wrote:
I'd say that right now I'm most suspicious of Oats.

He's called multiple people scum already, including: Cora, Hapa, DP, and has sheeped onto Yamato. But what I've failed to see from him is conviction in his reads. This is something I've seen from Oatsmaster in the past, even this early into the game, and I'm not seeing it here.

Oats, care to explain your current thoughts on DP and Hapa?


I have no idea how you associate any of this with scum-behavior. Firstly, "lack of conviction" seems the exact opposite of his play thusfar. Sure he doesn't have great justifications for his reads (which is normal on Day 1), but he seems to have as much "conviction" as possible.

Secondly, calling multiple people scum is completely non-alignment indicative, and might even be a town-tell (paranoia, natural suspicion, etc).

You are holding "townie conviction" to an immeasurably high standard. If there's anyone that has "conviction" about their reads so far, it's Oats. And hell it's early Day 1 - are you expecting the guy to have one clear scumread already or something?

While I'd use this heuristic for most players, Coag is known as more of a troll, so this is normal for him as either alignment methinks.

I have no idea how you associate any of this with scum-behavior. Firstly, "lack of conviction" seems the exact opposite of his play thusfar. Sure he doesn't have great justifications for his reads (which is normal on Day 1), but he seems to have as much "conviction" as possible.

Secondly, calling multiple people scum is completely non-alignment indicative, and might even be a town-tell (paranoia, natural suspicion, etc).

You are holding "townie conviction" to an immeasurably high standard. If there's anyone that has "conviction" about their reads so far, it's Oats. And hell it's early Day 1 - are you expecting the guy to have one clear scumread already or something?


Different people play scum in different ways. You say that the way Oats has played so far would be impossible for scum because there's "no survival instinct." I would strongly disagree with that. Oats so far hasn't really persay tunneled anyone all that hard. Coming from a game where he (as town) literally devoted all his energies to trying to get me lynched, his play this game is dramatically different. Sure, it's early and he could maybe not have that guy he's feeling really strongly is scum, but it is odd that he can so lightly jump on and off of people the way he has. Especially what he did with Yamato felt a bit off to me, more or less completely sheeping thread sentiment while entirely abandoning any focus on his prior scumreads.

I really haven't seen this "lack of survival instinct" you seem to have. This is a guy that as town waves his arms in the air and begs to get mislynched or vigshot for how scummy he looks. Here, I'd say he's not really acting like that.


He's already tunnelled a couple of people and is the most active person in this thread. I have no idea how you can interpret his play about having a lack of conviction.

In regards to him tunneling the hell out of you in "I Swear" Mini, you should know full well that he tunneled you on Day 2 of the game. How is that all relevant towards his play in the first few hours in the game, in which it is near impossible to have anything with which to mega-tunnel someone.

Can you point to me to any of his town-games in which he acts to the degree you attribute his play to within the first few hours of Day 1?

First of all there is the 180 on me because it was obvious no one agreed with you.

Then it was the only semi-explained reasoning for DP, Hapa, and Yamato scum.

It doesn't equate to much contribution. I see a whole lot of nothing in your filter, and that's not good seeing as it's three pages already.


Do you agree or disagree with what hapa said about townies often being paranoid and casting suspicion on many different people for this reason?


This is a bit of an oversimplification for what I'm saying. Both scum and town can cast suspicion on multiple players. What's key is how they do it. In the case of Oats, he was doing it and making every effort to antagonize everyone around him. Combine this with his hyper-activity so far, and I associate this much more with his town play than his scum play. His scum-play is much more diplomatic.

Could he have adjusted? Mebe. I'd need much more than a couple of hours to catch him should that be the case, though I don't consider it likely.

Anyway, I'm off to bed.

Oats is a strong town-read.
Cora is just under that.

At this point, the only person I'm suspicious of is GK for what I interpret to be a very bad entrance into the thread. He was suspicious of lynch-bait for very suspect rationale.

Essentially null on everyone else. Maybe a tinge suspicious of Shaio because one of his posts ("y u so scummy Yamato") rubbed me the wrong way.

Because his play so far has been based on antagonizing every single person in the thread. There's no scum survival instinct in his play.

He's playing like a paranoid townie. Which is why I have severe objections to how you interpreted his play so far:

It was the first few hours I was in the game, so as far as I'm concerned it was day one. And it was based off my first post, so he literally is capable of megatunneling off basically nothing... But that's not really my main issue with him. I'm still having trouble understanding how he can so easily forget about you and DP when jumping onto Yamato.


Well you didn't mention this before. That being said, I still have no idea about how this is scummy, but I'll let Oats answer for himself.

Also have you learned your lesson from Axel and Shao last game? Activity =/= towniness. Oats is always pretty active, so that's not particularly indicative of anything.


Shaio and Axle weren't very active. They were active in the early game, but dropped off later. The most active players in the thread were town, per usual. If there's a lesson to be learned, it's that early-game activity isn't as important as I weighted it to be. That being said, my read on Oats isn't entirely based on activity (though he has 3 pages of filter already) - it's based on his antagonistic attitude.

I'm not gonna call anyone scum for disagreeing with me. I'm just a bit disappointed that Hapa doesn't agree with me =(


Objectively bad play ("shoddy" play) isn't necessary scummy. For example, spurr-of-the-moment, crazy, emotional play is often 100% pure columbian townie. You seem suspicious of Oats for his sudden 180 on you, but I view that as fairly townie. He's not interested in covering his tracks, and despite him thinking you're town, isn't very interested in buddying you or being your friend. I can't detect a coherent scum/survivalist mentality.

Then what do you make of the fact that he hasn't contributed much to the discussion and has only managed to murk up the thread will really silly sheeping/unexplained arguments and acting like an idiot.


You just described to me Oat's town-meta. I was more fishing for reactions with my policy-lynch talk earlier, but it wasn't entirely baseless when I brought it up.

Fuck me need to sleep.

Anyway Cora, this fight with Oats reads so much like a town-on-town fight. You seem more interested in voting him because he's being a dick rather than scum. It's a natural reaction, but not one that helps the town cause I'm afraid.

'afternoon all

Got some good posting going on, and I'mma gonna catch up shortly. But first...

@ GK

I don't understand the first part of your case against Shaio. You identify two of his posts about his suspicions of you and state that they "contradict", however I can't see at all how that's the case:

Despite you screaming about how the case is "solely on meta", that's simply not true. The bolded makes clear motive for his vote, and the meta seems very secondary.

The second quote you list is perfectly consistent with this.

This is basic reading GK, and the second case from you I'm reading as forced and logically-flawed.

And wouldn't you think that this kind of "architecture" is exactly the kind of tell that gives away scum?


It puts me on higher alert about him, but that's about it. It's definitely not damning on it's own.

The main reason being that your case doesn't preclude the possibility of it being a general, non-alignment indicative posting style.

Anyway, GK is still my top-scumread.

His first post/entrance on Oats was pretty bad, and his second case on Shiao is based on him clearly not reading Shiao's posts.

If it was GK's first time seeing Oats play, I'd understand a bit more. But he saw him in action as town last-game and should expect this wild, random behavior.

Other than that, his cases just read very forced. He's harping on individual points that are incorrect (Shaio's case on GK being all meta) or non-allignment indicative (Oats moving on from his Hapa/DP scum-line) and calling people scum for it.

Selections:
And yet your opening post that highlights why you’re voting me says it’s based on how I played last game, which is the very definition of a meta-case.

Yet… Your case is in fact literally based solely on meta…

Yeah I think you're right about that. The line...

... reads as more of a persuasive point than an actual statement in his case.

I still don't like how he arrived at the conclusion that two perfectly consistent statements by Shiao are inconsistent, but I guess the thought process somewhat makes sense.

GK's other point about Shiao's other reads being nonexistent rings fairly true. His list post with a bunch of null reads and suspicion on Sloosh/Sylencia as about all we have to go off of, and it's not impressive.


I'm sympathetic to that point, but I don't believe it's allignment indicative of Shiao. I was screaming for Shiao's head in Mafia LXII for making posts like that, and ended up pretty wrong. If anything, I think it's something of a town-tell for him when he's being open about multiple players as opposed to forcing "clean" cases on a couple of targets.

Well with this, I have no scumreads. Yaaaaaay. Gotta read through again.

Regarding Obvious, I was waiting to post that later tonight (around the 24-hour mark), but yes it's strange how he lectures the town about activity then proceeds to ignore his own advice and preaching.

More or less. The general things that caught my eye were ObviousOne's entry and ShiaoPi's entry.


Can you give me a fuller opinion on Shiao (besides his entry of course)?

You need to take a deep breath, step outside, and come back in an hour or so.

This isn't a game about a grudge with Marv - it's a game about finding mafia. Antagonizing people isn't going to get us anywhere.

We're at about ~5 pages of filter, so you should have enough information to carry this game. What are your thoughts on the players who have posted so far?

Coag and DP are the only people I'm actually worried about at this point.


Talk to me about DP a bit. It usually takes me a while to have a concrete read on him, so I'm surprised you have worries this early.

He just hasn't done anything that would make me swing either way about him. This continued angry-man act is a bit disconcerting.


So you are 'worried about me for no reason' and the only thing you mention is something which i have done consistently as both alignments since the beginning of time.

Why would you mention me at all if you actually had no reason for the read? And what about coag? What has coag done to make you worried?

It's precisely that neither of you have done anything particularly townish at all that worries me. It's obviously early, but I have quite a few soft town reads already.


This makes absolutely no sense. DarthPunk is one of the most notoriously hard-to-read players on TL. Why would him not doing "anything particularly townish" be a cause for concern? Especially when he's incredibly good at acting "townish" as scum?

It's a process of elimination, obviously. I'm not worried about the other people who have posted. I am still perplexed about DP and Coag's alignment. I don't think there's that much to argue about, really. Both of you seem to be admitting to the fact that nothing he has done is alignment indicative.

So what is it exactly that you mean by "worry"? If you think DP is a null read, that's a very odd word choice.

Also, does the bolded imply that you have town-reads on every other person who has posted in this game? Because I find that very hard to believe given the sample-size thusfar.

I have weak town reads on most of the other players in the game, for varying reasons. At the very least, I can ignore them until later in the game when their alignment should be clearer.

Why DP isn't one of those town reads is cause for concern, yes. He's been perfectly readable in the past.


This mentality of "I have a bunch of weak-townreads that I'm just not concerned with" doesn't seem very townie. You seem overly trusting of the situation and lack the natural paranoia that I'm accustomed to seeing in your town-game.

The bolded passage (in the second quote) I find most disconcerting, because weak town reads aren't an excuse not to look at someone early on Day 1. Much less when that list at the time included ObviousOne, sloOsh, and Sylencia (all of whom had 1-4 unsubstantial posts at the time).

2) The way you backed off Shaio doesn't make much sense to me either. You're a player known for very strong-tunnels, and often very willingly confront the opinions of veteran players to push your own thoughts and scum-reads. In the case of Shiao, you backing down from your vote with so little resistance isn't what I associate with your town-meta.

Futhermore, your unvote post...

Shiao's "post architecture" wasn't the only reason you were suspicious of him. By contrast, your suspicions on him started because of another of his posts:

@ Yamato

Well I think you're misunderstanding (purposefully or not) my motives here. If I thought you were scum, I would vote you. Hell if I was scum, I'd vote tunnel the shit out of you. I've done it before, and I'd have no qualms about doing it again.

I've had success as town not because I'm "committal", but because I'm anything but. I'm willing to be cautious, think things through, and take things slow. I have a lot of hesitancy about lynching a player like you, because you are a player (if you're town and left alive to the end) can put things together. I'm not lynching you unless I'm sure you're scum.

So answer my questions. I don't think they're baseless, nor do I think you answered them in your filter.
1) Why were you so willing to back down from your read on Shiao? It is extremely uncharacteristic of your early-game to do so.
2)

Notably, he is on my watch list still.


The bolded passage is strictly wrong. There clearly are other parts of Shiao's posting and game you were suspicious of. Yet you seemed to have forgotten completely about them the second marv and I confronted you about your second wave of suspicions on him.

3) Regarding your "lack of suspicion" (willing to wait on SloOsh, OO, and Sylencia), I'll admit you did respond to that, and I let it pass earlier, but it doesn't sit well with me.

Particularly your town-read on OO. I have no idea how OO's play so far can warrant a town-read from you. Not only is there a small sample size, but you call his posting "brave" when it's very clearly not. Your explanation doesn't cut it:
Why would scum OO call Oats town at that moment? Unless he's just posting to post, I don't see it. that may be the case, but I feel that it's more likely that he's town from that post than scum.


This doesn't make sense. Why wouldn't "scum OO" call Oats town here? There's nothing brave about lightly calling someone town and supporting a policy lynch on them anyway. Scum do that all the time in varying degrees.

What about DP is cause for concern? I've seen you say that you "worry" about him a lot, but you've said virtually nothing specific about him.

Also,
Perhaps my phrasing has been poor this game, but being clear with how I feel about a particular player's posting when things are not as black and white as I'd like them to be is difficult. I think it's fairly obvious that I'm not particularly confident in any read.


So is this a pressure vote on me or are you reasonably confident I'm mafia?

Do you think DP seems particularly interested in this game? I don't.


I agree with that, and this was the answer I was looking for. DP has posted alot, but really hasn't shown the engagement/emotion I'd expect from him. He seems comfortable, which is a really weird feeling.

Both him and Rayn actually. Rayn's play just feels off. He's literally suspicious of every person in this game. And not in a "paranoid, spazzy townie" way. It feels very controlled and deliberate, which is just strange and scummy. I'll write something up when it's not 5am >>

You being timid in a game is how you seem as mafia. I don't like that you seem sheepish with your timing of questioning me right after Oats and DP state their suspicion of me.


Oats, DP, and Rayn have all been suspicious of you during pretty much all points of the game. It's not like there was ever a point in the game where I wouldn't "sheep" to some degree.

As for the timing... well it is what it is. And honestly yes you're right in that I'm being a bit more passive than usual. It's part a conscious effort on my end to post-less and re-read more, and part just a general burn-out I've been feeling in the last few games I've played.

Couple of non-scumread related things from the re-readthrough:

Shiao and GK appear to be playing a side-game with one another - both think each other is scum, yet are doing very little to push their opinions. This is pretty normal for them though, as town-Shiao is known for early-game lurk, and GK is on record saying he doesn't read his role PM on Day 1. I don't like their play, but neither is a good lynch for today.

I don't think DP is a good lynch for today. There are aspects of his play I don't like, however I feel that the reasons people have been suspicious of him for (myself included) are fairly inexact and within the realm of town-DP. He is a very null read for me, but that doesn't justify lynching him right now. One of the main arguments seems to be that there's a lack of engagement on his part than their normal town persona, but that could be said about half the players in this game right now (and obv not all of them can be scum).

I like ObviousOne's play in the last few pages. It's not aesthetically pleasing, but it seems genuine and town-motivated. Sylencia/Adam also get the replacement-pass for today.

The good lynches for today are the lurkers, namely sloOsh/Ange. Neither has done very much, and neither has shown any engagement in the thread. I'd be pretty happy killing sloOsh right now on the basis that his contributions (while I approved at the time) were fairly meager/non-committal, and that he fucked off from his promised activity.

It requires far too many assumptions.

Firstly, it's a secret vote, so the pool of candidates isn't necessarily comprised of only the people suspicious of you in the thread.

Secondly, I don't like assuming that it's a mafia ability. At the very least, I'm not making my decision based on that assumption.

Who knows. Hosts design "red herring" roles all the time. I understand thinking that a secret vote could be scummy, but basing a lynch decision on it is a whole different game.

Secondly consider this argument - if you are town, and someone on your wagon is scum, why would scum place a secret vote on you? It creates all sorts of alarm-bells amongst the town and questions about the lynch.

2) I don't suspect anyone else but shiao/ange/adam and they are all afk lurkers. There's no one who is both active enough to place that vote to try to get me lynched and also someone that would have any interest in lynching me.


...which is why we need to lynch an afk lurker. There are too many liabilities right now.

For example, you seem not to want to lynch sloOsh because he's "more readable down the road." Well DP is readable down the road too, AND he's more active of a presence.

Who is it, then? DP is the only one that makes any sense. And it's obviously not a town vote.


Again, I'm not making a lynch decision based on the assumption that the Secret Vote is a scum role. Could be 3rd party, and hell I do think it could be some town "double-voter" role.

But behaviorally, what makes DP scum? I don't want to coin-flip a lynch on an active player, and there are better targets for such lynches.

That's just it, OO and Cora are probably town. The secret vote was placed on me to get me lynched, and it's actually working.

Who has a vested interest in actually getting me lynched? DP. It's obviously his vote, and he's obviously not town. A townie would claim the fucking vote even if they did have it, because they have no reason to hide their intent to lynch.


That's actually true. No townie has claimed the vote, and someone should have claimed it by now if it was a town vote.

However, why are you precluding the possibility of someone off of your wagon (and not pushing your lynch) from placing said secret vote?

DP might possibly be scum.

You're running under the assumption that the vote is from an anti-town faction. That's not very good logic.

The problem is that now that you're on the chopping block, you're finally sticking to a singular read instead of flip-flopping. It's too late man. Too late. I can't tell whether that move is out of desperation or you actually think DP is scum. I don't agree with that, so I'm more inclined towards leaning that your attempt you get DP lynched is born out of desperation and not born out of scumhunting.


What the fuck is too late about Yamato's actions right now?

And if this was desperation, isn't ObviousOne, or even a lurker so much of a better target?

Cora, absolutely none of this makes sense.

There's an argument to be made that OO should be lynched for lack-of-content/lurking, though his behavior in the last few hours seems genuine.

Anyway, I keep reading through DP's filter looking for anything lynchable and I can't find anything. Even the "lack of engagement" is explainable by the fact that he's literally always busy on Saturdays in every one of his TL games ever.

I still don't think DP is a good lynch. I think it's more than possible that the secret vote (which is presumably sent by PM) could have been sent by one of the lurkers, and I want to lynch into one of them.

SloOsh or Ange I think. Maybe a YOLO SWAG lynch on Adam cause he hasn't shown up (but no not really).

DP is town.


Why is DP town? That's a really strong statement at this stage.

I'm willing to give Ange some more time to get more of her opinions out more: she has done a good job asking questions and if she's town and just hasn't explained her reads a bit more thoroughly it would be a really bad lynch for town.

I'm in favor of lynching Oats, Yamato, or sloOsh.

My problem is lynching sloOsh is that I could blame Adam, OO, and Ange for mostly the same things: lack of scumhunting and lack of activity. Why single out sloOsh?


Why not? All of them are lynchable, and sloOsh really doesn't have an excuse for it. Also, this argument rings hollow when you want to lynch someone (Yamato) who's by miles doing more scumhunting.

Also Cora, regarding your Yamato case, you're suspicious of him over two things:

1) Shiao unvote. This is non-allignment indicative. Someone changing their mind isn't scummy. It sounds like you wanted him to tunnel Shiao more, which is a strange argument since you're finding him scummy for essentially being more reasonable.

2) "DP kick" - again, not allignment indicative. What precludes a townie from wanting to lynch someone over themselves? Fact is, both town and mafia are desperate not to get lynched, and it serves as pretty good motivation to push your reads strongly.

However Yamato's push (while I don't all together agree with it) shows that he's carefully reading the thread and is not balls out retarded. That's enough for me to think that he's town.

Furthermore, Yamato has put more scum-hunting efforts in the latter half of this day than any other player. That's a pretty big town-tell, and you can't ignore the rest of his filter while harping on one or two things you may not agree with or like.

I have a strong feeling about DP being town for a couple of reasons:

1. His play has been productive and level-headed for most of the game. He is contributing to discussion and I don't believe he is hiding anything. His play seems very genuine to me and he has been very logical and reasonable in everyone he has analyzed. I don't see anything in his filter that looks scummy to me.

2. There have been a couple points where Hapa has been under fire. Instead of joining the wagon or not saying anything, DP has come out multiple (at least 5 times) to say that a Hapa lynch is a really stupid idea due to Hapa's importance to town. It would be so easy for scum DP to jump on the Hapa lynch train or to just sit out of the way and let a Hapa lynch train form. The fact that he went out of his way to defend Hapa means that he wants to keep Hapa alive for as long as possible, which would be super beneficial to town.


1) I believe you'd think differently if you've seen any of his past scum-games. What Yamato and I are more concerned about is not his lack of out-ward scumminess (which he never really shows regardless of allignment) - it's his lack of out-ward townieness.

Point is, he's null at best on this.

2) I'm one of the hardest players to mislynch on TL. Defending me is not that risky of a move. In fact in the last few games I've played with DP (both of us being town), he's tunneled the fuck out of me in each one early in the game.

Well if there were 5 people that could be lynched (with ShiaoPi), I would lynch them all.
Every time we lynch a lurker D1 they always flip town. That's why I'm almost always against LAL.


I don't think you understand the purpose of Day 1 play and lynching lurkers. The goal of Day 1 is to get a good lynch. This doesn't mean you necessarily have to hit mafia - you want to kill someone that you think could be mafia, but also isn't an asset to the town. This is because Day 1 lynches are the most random - why take a huge risk on an active player when you can be much more risk-averse by lynching a lurker?

In the present case, it's possible that a lurker we consolidate on will be town. However it's a much better option than lynching an active player who's going down kicking and screaming, because those players flip town %99.9 of the time.

Yamato - that's just so much speculation. Yes the theory "sounds nice", however things that sound nice and are convenient aren't necessarily true. At the very least, we're not lynching solely on that basis. Something like "Secret Vote WIFOM" can supplement suspicions (particularly behavioral analysis), but aren't the good basis of suspicions.

Hm ok. Because of all the people in the thread, I think his play is objectively the scummiest.

He's off doing his own thing with Shiao, and doesn't seem interested in pushing his case at all. He kinda just dropped a case, said he was voting Shiao, and fucked off.

I've heard not a peep from you about what you said about rayn, by the way. What gives?


Oh Rayn. Yeah his behavior today was pretty damn townie. Definetely not interested in lynching him today.

But yeah, kinda forgot about Rayn with the other stuff going on in the thread.

I always try to look for players that are blending in, and at the time I had thought Rayn was doing so. There was just something off/wrong about how he was attacking players, and a lot of the things he was attacking players for was him essentially parroting the points of others. His attack on Yamato was also really weird in the sense that he was just too confident about it.

Obviously whatever gut feeling I had about it has been placated by his recent behavior.

Well we're looking to consolidate on someone right now.

I dunno :/ Basically waiting for slOosh / Ange to report their findings. coag's just a crapshoot. Obvious sounded better but now he's disappeared again. I'm just browsing GK's filter since you mentioned him. What's the strongest point(s) against him would you say?


I wish I could say I was convinced about GK.

Because I don't think that GK's case is 100% completely unreasonable. I don't think it's good, but it isn't a wall of horribleness. It's just that he made a case, is seemingly convinced of Shiao's guilt, and isn't pushing it at all. In games I've read of GK, he's usually pretty interested in consolidating even at the expense of his own reads (see Les Mis), and just isn't around to do it right now.

But yes, more waiting on sloOsh // Ange right now.

If OO does have anything on DP, it's DP's lack of initiative. The way he's been pushing cases is somewhat wanting.

I think Oats was right though, as mafia why not just answer the question? I can understand as town thinking you were a dumb lynch and not wanting to talk about it. Why even pick a fight there?


Defending me is like the least risky move ever.

DP picks fights all the time. As for why that particular fight, who knows, but at the very least it's not allignment indicative.

In other news, I think I'm down to lynching GK or DP.

##Vote GoodKarma

I can excuse DP's behavior on the grounds that he's generally busy on weekends. I don't like his play, but I feel it could come from a town DP.

I can't really excuse GK's behavior so far. He's made two bad cases (Oats and Shaio), and isn't pushing either one of them. Compared to Les Mis (where he was actively seeking to consolidate his vote), he just plopped his vote on Shaio and is content to let it rot there.

Well I explained the GK thing before. He's playing this side-game with Shaio, is not a presence int he town at all, his analysis has been lacking, and fucks off when we're supposed to be consolidating.

As for hesitations for lynching DP, I just feel like GK is a better shot at flipping red at this stage. In addition, it seems like everyone is ok with a DP lynch and that this wagon just "acquiesced" on him. I understand the reasons for voting DP, and I'm very sympathetic to them. Hell Ange's last post on the subject was quite compelling.

Coag, at a certain point, if you want to call marv scum, do so sanely and constructively. Because the whole
foaming at the mouth "marv is scum trolololololol" doesn't really cut it for me, nor for the rest of the people here.

I also still don't understand the giant gap in analysis that you have regarding the DP vote - your analysis and thought process is literally only valid if GK isn't mafia.

Well I think it's safe to say that whatever GK's alignment is, there's a very low chance that there is scum on the DP wagon. It makes very little sense to bus an asset to your team, much less when that asset is the godfather.

What this does tell me is that the scum-team is probably passive and/or bad at pushing their agenda. The DP wagon was allowed to form at the last minute with very little interference, and that should inform us about our scum-suspects moving forward.

So regarding non-DP voters (not including myself):
Corazon - I really don't see the scum in his filter. Hard-defending a scum-buddy (especially when DP was on track to be lynched) would be a very brave thing to pull off.

Marv - If marv was scum, I don't know how we would have ended up lynching DP. Marv is a fairly pro-active scum player and great at pushing his agenda. Furthermore, his interactions and thoughts seemed fairly genuine. There's nothing illogical or scummy about how his end-of-the-day voting actions or suspicions. He seemed pretty interested in figuring out the game.

Reyn - Behaviorally, he's very aggressive. I had assumed this was townie up until now, and I still think it is. I'll read through him one more time just to be sure.

Adam - Is null.

Shiao - Ditto.

GoodKarma - I still believe he's scum for all the reasons I've discussed before. He voted Shiao and never pushed his case. He just kinda fucked off, which is fairly normal for a scum GK.

Oats - When I read over Oats filter, it reads very similarly to DP's filter. He's active, spammy, but isn't really pushing his suspicions. In the last game I played with him (I Swear Mini), he would lock on and tunnel people to death, constantly screaming bloody murder about his targets being scum. He did it to GK, BH, and Myself, all really early in the game. He's relentless and completely uncompromising about his suspicions.

So we have a good idea that Yamato is town this game, and Oats has thought he was suspicious most (if not all) of the game. However reading his filter (especially the latter parts of his push on page 5-6 of his filter), his play doesn't have the same abrasiveness "FUCK YOU U SCUM BISSHHHHH" attitude that I'd expect of Oats.

Furthermore, I think this is a scumclaim from him:

CONSOLIDATION


Consider Oats - the most uncompromising, unreasonable, relentless player, who has gone after Yamato all game, all of a sudden dropping all of his yamato suspicions and considers voting ObviousOne. While Oats ends up re-voting yamato a couple of posts later, the fact that he's even considering a lynch option on another player is very strange. Much less when you consider the things Oats has actually said about OO:

Notice OO is gone.


In Oat's entire filter, that's all he posted that could even be constructed of suspicion about OO. The fact that he could even consider unvoting Yamato on this evidence makes me think that Oats is scum.


As a second point, I believe there's an association case to be made about DP/Oats. Both interact with each other a lot, and at times imply suspicion on each other, but never really say anything definitive about each others' alignments.

One exchange that stuck out to me was this:

He's clearly defending DP here and completely chainsaw's Yamato for attacking DP.

However, Oats NEVER mentions that he thinks DP is town throughout his ENTIRE filter!!!!!!! He repeatedly calls the cases against DP bad and uses them as a platform to attack Yamato (who is very likely town).

Hell Oats has expressed suspicion of DP in his filter several times in the early game, which this exchange so strange.

There are little things in DP's filter as well that go the opposite way. Where he's repeatedly suspicious of Oats but fails to ever give a clear, coherent answer about it.

I said you were scummy. not scum. You are always scummy though. so you're still null for me.

The point Was that it is difficult to see through blatantly scummy shit like retarded tunnells and shitting up the thread enough to make a town read straight up. Especially when your town game is similar to your scum game in a lot of ways. Like I know you always play scummy. But would you expect obvious to know that and to give you a town read in the context of the thread? I wouldn't. and that is what is off about the whole thing.


...and then poof! That's it! No more!

He starts interacting with Oats from time to time, but never mentions anything resembling a read on Oats, or even an opinion. There's even this gem that ObviousOne pointed out earlier:

That kush thing pissed me off too.


Offers some random non-read on Oats that somewhat implies suspicion but in reality says nothing.

For the amount that Oats and DP interact in the thread, there's markedly little of substance. Thay have these random casual conversations, never give opinions on one another, and trust each other way too much given the suspicion they imply on each other.

I see you sobered up real quick rayn. Care to tell me why're you're faking your drunkenness?

As for not voting DP... so what? Neither did you. And that goes for everyone but five people in the thread.

Now be a good boy and
a) Tell me what's with this fake-drunkenness stunt you're pulling and
b) Why is my case on Oats bad?

Thoughts on Marv Hapa?


Marv - If marv was scum, I don't know how we would have ended up lynching DP. Marv is a fairly pro-active scum player and great at pushing his agenda. Furthermore, his interactions and thoughts seemed fairly genuine. There's nothing illogical or scummy about how his end-of-the-day voting actions or suspicions. He seemed pretty interested in figuring out the game.

You're usually really, really good about voiding your opinions on reads. You've explicitly called several people town this game, and I have a really hard time believing that you failed to do it with DarthPunk.

You had plenty of instances to do it. Look how many times you offhandedly dismissed Yamato's suspicions, all without ever saying that you thought DP was town? Really?

Much more from a scum perspective (hence the case).

Honestly Oats, I making an association case, which is near impossible for you to defend directly. Because I'm essentially setting out expectations for your town play, and you're not really going to change them unless you prove that you're town in other ways.

I'm more interested in hearing who you think is scum given the lynch actions.

If I do have any more specific things I'd like you to defend, I'll let you know.

I don't like the fact that he has disappeared since i laid out my case. Unless he has something reasonable to say i'll be voting for him and you all should do that aswell.


You posted your case and voted me when I was asleep, so there's not much more to say about this. Now as for the case...

He is not wanting to be a town leader here.


I don't always lead town early on. Examples include both Hydra Mini I and II.

You played in Hydra Mini II and tried to mislynch me for it when you were scum. Why are you forgetting about this?

He is asking random questions from random people. He had Goodkarma as his top scum read, then suddenly went on voting for Sloosh and after that dropped the "GK is my top scumread"...


Exactly at what point did I ever drop my suspicions of GK? I didn't.

...did not answer me about that when asked, masked it with a question about yamato for me and went on with "something is off with rayn and DP", didn't explain that any more and said he would be writing stuff about me later. Does this sound like a townie behaviour?


It was the last post I made before I went to sleep at 5 am in the morning. When I woke up (which coincided with you falling asleep), you had posted enough to convince me you were town. So I didn't feel the need to post anything more.

This is probably because yamato is mafia too, and with no real direction in the game right now, he might get lynched. If mafia does not do something soon, one of their own will get lynched so they are trying to pursue more and more targets to hide in the shadows.


This doesn't make sense, because yamato is most likely town given voting actions. So why exactly do I need to defend this?

Now Hapa, am i bullshitting in what i said here and if i am not, why do you think i am scum? You have seen me play scum in a game that i was actually able to play to the fullest. Why do you actually think yamato is town? You basically ask him questions and whatever he answers you reply with "okay, that's fair enough". You are taking him at face value at the earliest possible moment, and that's really REALLY fishy. Yamato never explained his reasoning behind his town-reads actually being null yet you have never talked about that again. You labeled GK as your top scum read and after that you place a vote on Sloosh and after one post from him you take the vote back and hop on entirely different things. It does not make sense from town PoV.


Like honestly, half your case is entirely associative with Yamato.

Basically that.

yamato isnt in the thread, i think GK might be scum, I wanna lynch yamato today.


Most notably, GK posted ONE time after you made this post, and that was his post AFTER the lynch.

my point is that I rethought the game, read GKs filter when I woke up and realized that HE WASNT SCUM.
WOOHOOOOO.




I don't mind you leaning town on GK. However when you're assuming he's town for the sake of making arguments against other players, we have a problem.

There is a big leap between thinking someone is town and assuming that I wasn't voting for scum.

Regarding Yamato,

I have a huuuuuuuuuuuuge+ Show Spoiler +
huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge
game history with Yamato. He's someone that not only have I caught as scum (notably in Red Team's Prize), but he's also someone I talk about the game with fairly frequently. I understand how the guy thinks, and our interactions will be far different than two random players on TL.

So yes, I read Yamato as town pretty darn quickly because he's someone I can meta extremely well. Moreso than any other player on this site (maybe except for iamp, possibly marv).

As for dropping my scumread on GK, yes I did drop it at the time because I agreed with what Yamato was saying. Also one of the reasons I didn't want to lynch GK was because when I filter-dived him in Les Mis, I noticed a comment about how he never reads his role PM on Day 1. When marv proved that wrong, you'll notice that my drive to lynch him resumed pretty quickly, and he's one of my current scum-reads... or well he was until Oats started assuming that GK was town for the sake of casting suspicion on me.

I was answer this portion of your suspicions:

All i was saying was that you viewed yamato as town (if you can read the case ffs) with very little reasoning, which sets off alarm bells for you. So no, i have never said yamato's alignment has something to do with yours (besides the fact that i thought you were both scum, which i have changed my opinion on - but that has NOTHING to do with the case on you).


I viewed yamato as town with "very little reasoning" because of my absurd familiarity with his playstyle.

and why did you not say this about GK before the flip? I asked you about it.


As for this, I did say all of this. Not directly to you, but everything I'm saying to you is in my filter directed at others.

I don't mean to offend you, but I didn't take your case very seriously, and given that I woke up a couple of hours before the lynch deadline and had virtually no chance of getting lynched, I had more pressing concerns (i.e. finding a scumread) to deal with.

What point are you trying to make with the underlined if not that Hapa wasnt on the DP wagon?

You underlined it, i did not. I was saying Hapa was on GK wagon and i don't think he never pursued it as he would as town (see my original case). I am not as cheap to say "Hapa is scum because he was on the wrong wagon" as i do know that means nothing. Now, sleep.

You don't do that as town. You literallyt ake every opportunity to take a dump on your scurmeads when you're town.

Also Im town, so I guess your meta read is inaccurate. poo.


Nope.

1 reason that we can discuss is I feel Yamato wasnt even CLOSE to playing to his town meta day 1. So how in the world do you think that Yamato is town for meta reasons. HOW.


He was not playing to his stereotype, but he was playing to a meta that I've heard him talk about repeatedly over Skype.

You're the last person who should be lecturing me about how to meta and how to read Yamato.

So again, Oats, we're in a situation where you think I'm scum, and we're both awake.

Why are you not substantiating your reads? How is that pro-town?

When you went after me in I Swear, I was the towniest motherfucker in the thread, yet you were not afraid at all to throw things at me. And now the second I confront you about your read on me, you go into a shell.

Yep, so Adam and Cora are here.

You have an audience and "people to convince", so convince them.

No more excuses, right?

I can't tell if you're serious.

But if for some reason you are, I mislynched the hell out of you in RTP when we were both town, and almost shot you in I Swear when we were both town.

Anyway if you're not going to be serious about me, it's fairly safe to assume that there are 3-4 scum in this game.

Therefore, even if you think I'm scum (for god knows why), have to have a scum-buddy or two. Who are my scumbuddies and why?

Well given your completely beyond retarded approach to being suspicious of me, I don't think I'm wrong.

Like you usually have bad reasons to think I'm mafia, but in this game, you literally have no reasons beyond a couple of joke posts.

What the hell am I supposed to think when you're making every effort to not take this seriously?

oh he voted for DP. Coag town.


aksdhfakslfawlekfajdfasjdhfkajshf

Why are you not reading the thread? You were explicitly attacking me for not voting DP. How on earth did you miss that about Coag?

He said he was acting like normal town yamato. When he wasnt. When you said he wasnt.


So the only reason that both marv and I are scum is because we both at the time thought Yamato was town based on meta. Nevermind the fact that we both have large game-histories with Yamato as well as conversation-histories (skype, podcast, etc).

Like honestly, how is a town-read even alignment indicative? Hell speaking of poorly justified town-reads...

I'm well aware what he flipped. He made himself intentionally unreadable, as you are doing now. I'm done with unreadable. If you don't want to play the game, don't sign up.

Right now I want to see more out of GoodKarma, ShioaPi and Raynpelikoneet. Oats would be on this list as well if he weren't playing like a dick.


So presumably you find each person scummy to some degree. Can you elaborate your thoughts on each? I'm most interested in your thoughts on Rayn.

@ GK

There's really not much in that post I can draw from, but I await to see what you have for us when you catch up.

That being said, I want to address one thing:
As for Hapa, it doesn't sit well with me how he seems to still be of such a conviction that I'm scum, when scumteam would have every motivation to push my mislynch over losing DP on day 1. It also doesn't sit well with me how he's spent much of his focus on those that weren't on my wagon, when those specifically on my wagon is really something that deserves a lot of attention.

The thing about the DP lynch is that there wasn't much vocal opposition to it. Even players on your wagon (such as marv and I) were perfectly happy to see DP hang. You say that scum wanted to resist the DP wagon and want to do everything in their power to stop it, but where does that resistance come from?

For me, the key to figuring out this game is your allignment. If you're town, then players like Adam and Shiao catapult to the top of the lynch list.

However you've done very little to demonstrate that you're town, or even care about this game. You posted a case on Shiao and fucked off without having ever pushed it.

Anyway, it looks like I've gotten everything out of Oats that I will for a while.

I'm not as sure that he's scum anymore. He's responding fairly quickly and not showing very much guilt while doing so. While his answers are incoherent and unprepared, they do make sense provided that he was calling me scum in order to "poke" me and see how I'd react.

I still find him "poking" somewhat uncharacteristic for his town-game (he's usually much more direct/forceful with his reads), but I'll need to sleep on it and see what his actual reads end up being before I make a final judgement call.

Have you ever stopped to consider that it's really easy for scum Oats to complain and bitch like a townie when the pressure has been on him? There's no way to can say that him acting like that can erase the fact that his filter is all talk and no real scumhunting.


Perhaps. That doesn't change the fact that there is one possible legitimate reason for his line of responses.

And Oats and I basically had a 40-post back and forth. That's not real easy for scum to do. Certainly possible, but not very easy.

I would agree with you if Oats' posts were on the same level of depth as yours. However, you were being very calm and giving reasons for your suspicions and he would just respond with one-liners and saying that you are wrong because he is town. The parity of the "intelligence" of the conversation was heavily swung in your favor. I think it's more non-alignment indicative because both frustrated scum and town can act like that.


That's fair.

To clarify though, it's not so much that I'm convinced he's town, but that he's given me some reason to doubt that he's scum. Ultimately I'll decide to lynch him or not based on the substance he is going to provide.

I also still don't understand the giant gap in analysis that you have regarding the DP vote - your analysis and thought process is literally only valid if GK isn't mafia.


I am not sure what exactly you are refering to in your question.


I'm not really asking a question here. More telling Coag to give reasons for marv=scum, and identifying that the whole "if you didn't vote for DP, you're suspicious" isn't as straightforward since we don't know GK's alignment.

@ Marv

Can you explain your reads on sloOsh (seemingly null) and Coag (strong town) respectively?

I have sloOsh at very strong town given how much sense he's making. Also regardless of GK's allignment, he was the hammer vote on the Godfather, which makes me incredibly skeptical of any sort of suspicion on him.

As for Coag, I'm not sure what his behavioral tells are, but his vote on DP actually isn't that important. It wasn't made in the last minute scramble, and almost seemed like a throwaway vote made in the middle of D1 when DP had virtually no chance of getting lynched.

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=417453&currentpage=67#1329

Regarding my "general aversion" to voting DP:

My attitude is what it is, and I really have nothing to defend in that regard. I always have a general aversion to lynching active players on Day 1, and I almost always try to lynch into lurkers unless there is really compelling evidence otherwise.

Also, keep in mind that during most of those quotes, Yamato was talking to me about lynching DP based on what was essentially "Secret Vote" WIFOM. The reasoning didn't resonate with me at all and was making me fairly skeptical of voting DP as a whole.

Notably this...
Again, taking a generous view of DP, and another shoddy reason for it. Earlier he said he doesn't like assuming it's a mafia ability. Yet he cites the secret vote as a reason to lynch into the lurkers.


... is a big misrepresentation of what I was saying. I was more stating my objections to Yamato's rationale (who was convinced that DP was responsible for the secret vote) and trying to argue on his terms.

If you look through my filter and my game history, obviously I have more rationale behind lurker-lynching than a silly Secret Vote. It's something I heavily trend to in all of my town-games because I find it a very effective means of catching mafia on Day 1 with a low-risk attached.


Regarding Rayn:

Particularly people like goodkarma, ShiaoPi, cora and Adam, this new stuff a good place to make contributions.


I think I'm being perfectly fair to rayn. Maybe not diplomatic, but fair.

I'm more than willing to defend myself when someone approaches me with well-informed and rational suspicion. However in the case of rayn, he is a player that's locked on into two completely irrelevant parts of my filter and calling me scum for it.

On top of that, when I see shit like this...

I have a terrible hangover so i am not going to try to have more of a headache today by rereading.

I am still suspicious of Hapa. I don't think anyone who voted for DP is scum unless GK is scum too, but i find it kinda hard to believe there would be only 2 scum wagons at the end of the day. That does not just sit well with me, especially considering my scumreads are not lurkers. I still think Oats is town for what i have said and i don't like how Hapa was (and apparently is?) unable to understand my read on him. I have no idea why he thought Oats was mafia last night.

... it pisses me off a great deal. I'm strictly not going to afford the respect to someone who's not going to re-read the damn thread. That's not a signal of a hangover, that's the signal of confirmation-bias up the ass, and I'd much rather spend my time finding mafia than wasting my time talking to someone who's not going to listen.

@ GoodKarma

Regarding Cora

There are a lot of things I could say about his play, but wishy-washy isn't one of them.

Also his reasoning for voting you was pretty much "I think DP is super-town, I will vote anyone except for him"(...which isn't any better, but it isn't what you represent it to be ("lololol there are 5 lurkers let's go and kill GK").

Regarding Shaio

One of the reasons that I'm skeptical of your push is along the lines of what Ange said a couple of pages back:
On June 23 2013 20:34 Ange777 wrote:
To be honest I really don't see scum ShiaoPi right now. Yes, his inactivity is troubling but in I Swear he showed that he can actually play scum differently. Reverting back to his absolutely lurking scum meta from the past just simply does not make any sense for me.


From last game, we know the guy is capable of playing an active and engaged scumgame. So why revert to this passive/lurky play? Also, are you sure this passive play of his is exclusive to his scum-games as opposed to his town-games?

@ Cora

I will say that GK has a really good point about your "read" on Ange.
Finally there's his last set of reads, which clearly make no sense from a town perspective. I simply can't visualize a townie making the Ange read in particular, given her contributions to getting scum lynched on DAY 1. All in all, this is a guy with a lot of activity who hasn't had a whole lot of stances on who's scum. He's content to suspect lurkers and be pretty wishy-washy on everyone else. Ange in particular he's gone from "possibly Ange" to "probably not Ange let's not consider lynching her even though I think she's scummy" in very short order when pressured about it. Like what kind of townie does that??? The Oats read I could possibly see a townie making, but everything else just doesn't make sense at all to me from a town perspective.


Why would you be suspicious of the person who was the driving force behind the Godfather lynch? And even if you are suspicious, your quotes on her don't come across as very natural...
Perhaps Ange, as it would be really easy for scum to cast doubt on me and push for my lynch D2. That got me really suspicious.


So you mention that you're "really suspicious" of her right here, but then when someone confronts you about it, you immediately back down to a very non-committal stance:

I'm not say Ange is 100% scum and that we should try to lynch her. I'm not even saying Ange looks very scummy and we should thing about lynching her. I'm just saying that it makes me a bit suspicious.


And now it's a "bit suspicious".

Hapa, let's talk about something else than D1 for a change. You said a lot about solving this game revolves around flipping GK, and if he flipped town you would then look into ShiaoPi and Adam. I can get the ShiaoPi part, but why Adam? And do you actually think GK is mafia or what were you trying to say there? That we should lynch him to have more information on ShiaoPi/Adam? That doesn't really sound like a reason to lynch someone.


I was more throwing names out there, and not necessarily concrete examples.

For example if GK is mafia, there's an overwhelming chance that the mafia was fairly lurky and passive. Thus the candidates to look into would be very passive players who hadn't had much influence in the game. So Shiao/Adam fit that bill somewhat, though it's not a complete list by any means - after all, why speculate about specifics until I actually know more about GK?

Ermmmm sorry I butchered that a bit and forgot my argument a bit.

If GK is town, mafia would probably be a passive influence on the GK wagon (players like Adam, Shaio, and maybe marv).

If GK is mafia, players on the GK wagon look much better, and it's worth to look into players either avoiding both wagons all together OR those that were extremely passive (also now that I think about it, would probably include Adam and Shaio as well).



Regarding Adam and Shaio specificly, I do have reasons to doubt they're mafia. Adam has come across as fairly genuine so far (even with his limited posting). Generally when he's posting as mafia, he just comes across as sounding terrible, illogical, and desperate. I don't get that feeling this game.

As for Shiao, I posted my thoughts (directed at GK) just above. Given his mafia performance last game, it doesn't make very much sense for him to slink back into this lurky/wishy-washy game if he rolled mafia again. His wishy-washyness is a null-tell at best I think, and perhaps even a town tell.

Hapa, let's talk about something else than D1 for a change. You said a lot about solving this game revolves around flipping GK, and if he flipped town you would then look into ShiaoPi and Adam. I can get the ShiaoPi part, but why Adam? And do you actually think GK is mafia or what were you trying to say there? That we should lynch him to have more information on ShiaoPi/Adam? That doesn't really sound like a reason to lynch someone.


I was more throwing names out there, and not necessarily concrete examples.

For example if GK is mafia, there's an overwhelming chance that the mafia was fairly lurky and passive. Thus the candidates to look into would be very passive players who hadn't had much influence in the game. So Shiao/Adam fit that bill somewhat, though it's not a complete list by any means - after all, why speculate about specifics until I actually know more about GK?

Ermmmm sorry I butchered that a bit and forgot my argument a bit.


If GK is town, mafia would probably be a passive influence on the GK wagon (players like Adam, Shaio, and maybe marv).

If GK is mafia, players on the GK wagon look much better, and it's worth to look into players either avoiding both wagons all together OR those that were extremely passive (also now that I think about it, would probably include Adam and Shaio as well).

Oh what the shit this came across as really wierd.

Ignore the part that I striked above. I thought I posted it for some reason, but it turns out I didn't and I confused myself.

@ Cora

I will say that GK has a really good point about your "read" on Ange.
Finally there's his last set of reads, which clearly make no sense from a town perspective. I simply can't visualize a townie making the Ange read in particular, given her contributions to getting scum lynched on DAY 1. All in all, this is a guy with a lot of activity who hasn't had a whole lot of stances on who's scum. He's content to suspect lurkers and be pretty wishy-washy on everyone else. Ange in particular he's gone from "possibly Ange" to "probably not Ange let's not consider lynching her even though I think she's scummy" in very short order when pressured about it. Like what kind of townie does that??? The Oats read I could possibly see a townie making, but everything else just doesn't make sense at all to me from a town perspective.


Why would you be suspicious of the person who was the driving force behind the Godfather lynch? And even if you are suspicious, your quotes on her don't come across as very natural...
Perhaps Ange, as it would be really easy for scum to cast doubt on me and push for my lynch D2. That got me really suspicious.


So you mention that you're "really suspicious" of her right here, but then when someone confronts you about it, you immediately back down to a very non-committal stance:

I'm not say Ange is 100% scum and that we should try to lynch her. I'm not even saying Ange looks very scummy and we should thing about lynching her. I'm just saying that it makes me a bit suspicious.


And now it's a "bit suspicious".


Perhaps I used the wrong wording in how suspicious of Ange I was. Her sub-par D1 play was only revived by the fact that she voted for DP at just the right time. Then she goes on about how I look bad for voting DP which is so ridiculously obvious. I'm still feeling on edge after the DP vote because I thought I was going to be a prime lynch candidate because of it. I considered (and still do, but to a lesser degree) myself to be lynch bait and when she mentioned my name I saw her possibly as scum jumping on the lynchbait. She shouldn't be hailed as an angel just because she voted for DP. Everyone still has to do their part in the town.


RE the bolded - she kinda is though in this situation.

Not only did she vote DP, but the circumstances she did it under make the vote more compelling (and townie). For example, she came back into the thread at the last minute, quickly read it, and then immediately voted DP and pushed the lynch? How could that come from mafia?

The bussing argument is hard to make, and made even harder by her general interest in this game so far.

I wanted to ask you that because you brought that up yourself and i do not think it's anything concrete as you just said - GK is alive.

Do you think it's more probable that there were two scum wagons at the end of the day 1 than only one?
Also if GK is in fact mafia, do you think ShiaoPi could be mafia. Like, thay did nothing than attack each other on D1?


I'm 50/50 on GK right now. His recent posting is better, but still has some random questionable elements in it.

As for the GK/Shaio link, I really hate speculating on associations. However I do believe it's possible, as neither of them really pushed each other's lynch. Do I believe it's likely? Well that depends on a host of factors, and I'm not sure enough to give a concrete answer.

Do you think Adam is scum, or that he's just not a town-read of yours?

Also do you still think Cora is town?


I have him behaviorally as town, though my town-read has somewhat waned with the whole Ange thing. That, and his town-read on Darth Punk was really really weird looking back at it.

So yeah, a bit of a wishy-washy answer, but I'm assuming I'll have 48 hours with him tomorrow to set things straight.

The lurker lynch seems like a post-justification for his vote. He had a town-read on DP and didn't want to see him lynched. Whether or not that read on DP is scummy is a subject for another debate, but it is what it is.

Also, why do you care about list posts? List posts are non-alignment indicative.

I have my reasons to be suspicious of Cora, but all the reasons you're coming up with aren't very robust.

Somewhat.

He's being a lot more trolly this game which is throwing me off. The raw activity suggests he's town, but his refusal to substantiate anything is maddening.

Welcome to every game ever with Oats.

Anyway, work again. I'll see you guys in a while.


But usually Oats is willing to substantiate his reads and scumhunt without fail. He's a very opinionated guy who will death-tunnel people he thinks are mafia. This game doesn't fit that pattern. He seems more interested in "poking" people by calling them mafia, then refusing to back any of it up.

It's like he doesn't want himself to be taken seriously, which I associate with his scum-mentality.

If you're referring to his lurker lynch post he made not too long ago I referenced, it doesn't sit well with me that half those people were on the DP wagon, and he doesn't even make any kind of note of it. He doesn't work to differentiate between them at all, and just makes some kind of blanket statement that he's okay with lynching into them. And that is scummy.


Oh ok that makes a bit more sense.

I'll give you that - it does look really bad.

Frankly I find the contention that a player who's lurked in many scumgames and been active in one, we should assume he's going to be active in this one too, on top of what I said about playing more than one scumgame in a row. In fact you yourself should know how horrible it is to play consecutive scumgames.

The argument seems to be that a mafia player would make a special effort to be active and involved, whereas a townplayer would not make this effort.

When has it ever been this way round, ever?


My point isn't that Shiao is super town. It's that the things that GK is attacking him for are null-tells.

And frankly I'm more interested in hearing GK talk for himself. I need to establish his alignment right now, as that is the most pressing thing.

1) (Shao made his scumplay "worse;" I would just say if scum here he made is scumgame different): If indeed he's played like this as town, then fitting into his town meta wouldn't exactly be subpar as scum would it?


Fair.

2)I was scum with Shao last game, and scum with him very briefly in Rockband before replacing out. He was town and I was scum in LVII, and he was in fact productive there and not this troll you've seen him be... And as far as I can remember, that's it. I certainly never played in LXII, and if you were to check my profile you'd know that... The point here is he clearly has different playstyles as town and different playstyles as scum, so exactly why are you trying so hard to meta-analyze him?


Shaio didn't play rockband. And yes I mean LVII - wrong roman numeral. Annnnnyway, his early game was markedly similar to his early-game here, where he made a bunch of wishy-washy list-post reads and complained about being away from the game. It was only later in the game (in the last few days) where he really took charge of the town and almost won the whole thing for town.

Also, I'm more trying to play devils advocate with you to see how much substance your reads have than some sort of Shiao meta-analysis.

3) The afk around lynch-time specifically is not necessarily alignment-indicative. That he refuses to pop back in here and share reads of any kind, even after clearly being around enough to troll, is scummy as fuck.


He was in here and trolling? Which posts are you referring to, because I don't see them.

Let's talk about sloOsh and OO then.

What about their play is "shoddy" so far?

Why are their voting actions not sufficient to exonerate them? (And in OO's case, DP trying to get him killed)?

With OO, there's still the big factor that DP tried to lead a wagon on him. Actually, both DP and Oats voted him at some point, which makes your suspicions of him somewhat strange.

As for sloOsh, how has he not been contributing? He's been doing quite well since the lynch.

OO is far down my list of people I want to lynch but I'm not going to write him off as confirmed town. How many ways do i have to phrase that?

Overall, sloOsh's contributions have been mediocre. His filter is about 2 and a half pages, with 50% of that coming after the lynch. He's done well N1, but his D1 posting left a lot to be desired.


So is there anyone confirmed town in your mind? Actually, can I get a list of who you consider to be town/scum/null?

Moral of the story - trying to mislynch me never works and ends up in your death.

I'm inclined to think that Rayn's super-defense of Oats last night makes Oats town. Rayn just seems waaaay too sure about it, and hard defending a scum-buddy like that is very psychologically difficult.

That's really all I drew of relevancy from Rayn's filter on one quick readthrough. He does talk about reads on Shiao, GK, and others, but never really does anything committal that would say anything about their allignments.

I'd like to hear other's thoughts on it.

I will look at her filter right after my shower.


Ange was the most obvious townie in the game as well as an analyst. Also, her main suspicion was on marv, so scum shooting her (assuming they did) due to her suspicions don't make much sense.

Not anymore I don't.

I'm referring to looking through Rayns filter now that he flipped red. When I interacted with him (p57-60) at the time that I posted my case on Oats, Rayn was flipping out and screaming that Oats was town in the thread.

I find it extremely unlikely that Oats is scum on this basis, given that scum rarely (if ever) hard-defend their buddies THAT intensely when suspicion is brought on them.

I'll also state that I think Cora is really, really townie.

There are certain people that are off-limits for scum to attack (obvious townies, etc), because scum fundamentally want to blend in.

So when Cora is going off and being suspicious of players like OO, sloOsh, and Ange, that's 100% paranoid townie. Suspicions like that attract attention like crazy, and scum really just want to play along.

Right now I think I'm between lynching GK and Shiao.

Adam's play has seemed fairly genuine to me. It's a bit of a gut-read, but one I'm comfortable with for now.

As for who to vote, I'm not placing anything until I hear what they have to say.

Despite the fact that we're ahead, lynching the last scum can be extremely difficult (harder to draw connections, especially when two scumbuddies die early). Best to take this one calm and slow.

Also, does anyone here support GK or Shiao roleclaiming if they have roles?

We're down a confirmed cop and a vigi, vs two incredibly powerful mafia roles. It's likely we have another role (maybe 2?) somewhere.

Because "I agree with all of you regarding your town reads, Shiao has to be scum" is a bit hollow.

Regarding the above, that opens the door to some speculation about scum-teams. For example I've seen Hiro roll scumteams with Traitor roles, and such information could be removed from a mafia role PM.

That being said, Traitors rarely have individual KP.

So if there's no NK tomorrow, the scum-team setup is probably 2 mafia + 1 traitor. If there is one, then ignore mah conspiracy theories.

In one word: yes.

I'm assuming given our knowledge of the setup we're most likely left with only one scum. In such a case, Shao is the most likely to be scum, not only for his scummy behavior, but because I have townreads on literally everyone else in the game right now.

Not really hollow. Just a logical conclusion to this whole ordeal. I'm fairly confident I've found the last scum.


Can you convince me that Oats is town again? He keeps trying my patience.

Shiao has been around here for a while, and is a pretty smart guy, but historically that hasn't translated to his mafia play. He played a fairly good scum-game in his most recent game (I Swear Mini), however, I wouldn't call him an expert blue-sniper by any stretch.

##Unvote

Can't say I'd expect something like this out of a scum Shiao. I'll have to do a read-through tomorrow.

One thing that crossed my mind is that the last hostile party might be a traitor, which would open up some avenues. I'm not sure how likely this is (given that Cora claimed RB, which looks like a scum RB). But if there's no NK tomorrow, we need to start looking into that possibility.

As for GK/Shiao, I've gotten townie vibes fromt hem, but nothing to override other town-reads I have yet.

Anyway, let's see what GK has to say about all of this.

Eh yeah I will right now actually.

And what is your current read on adam? considering you asked shiao, i assume you have something new?


Nothing new on Adam after a brief skim of his filter just now. A deeper read is a project for tomorrow morning.

That being said, Shiao is pulling off the paranoid townie real well. The fact that he's not just settling for the "process of elimination GK lynch" and is looking into other players (such as myself) as well is very townie. GK's approach looks a lot worse, with which he seems a bit too comfortable with the situation.

...
Adam also I believe to be town, as he shows an active involvement in the game.

I'm obvtown.


His read on Adam seems scarcely informed. Adam is involved, and I tend to believe from his posting sounds townie, but the whole "he's actively involved, town, ez" seems a bit too... easy.

That, and the "I'm Obvtown" thing rubs me the wrong way. Because he's clearly not, or he wouldn't be in this position as one of the two major lynch options for today.

Anywho, I'd lean towards GK over Shiao at this point.
Adam is a project for tomorrow. Yourself as well.

To add to the GK thing, what I don't like about his approach is the "everyone's town, therefore Shiao is scum duh" approach. It seemed alright when I read it, but compared to Shiao's response, it is quite wanting. And honestly I can't point to anything in GK's filter that I can call strikingly townie.

Of all the town-reads I have, the one I have on him is by far the least robust and the least justified.

Because I refuse to sleep, there are two things that are striking about GK's filter on yet another readthrough:

1) How few questions he asks to other players after Day 1.

GoodKarma does poke and prod a couple of players with random questions (mostly Shiao) on Day 1. However post-lynch, he really hasn't attempted to engage with anyone in the thread. He comes in, plops some commentary, and leaves without ever pursuing his reads.

This is literally the only question he has asked since the lynch:
Corazon, what is your read on Hapa?


Huh.

2) It feels like his analysis posting empty "mass" and "drivel".

One thing about the structure of his posts and analysis since the lynch is that his thoughts are often "dumped" into a post, are very rambly, are very poorly formatted... etc. The structure of his posts are really hard to read, and are almost designed to not take seriously. For example:

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=417453&currentpage=62#1235
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=417453&currentpage=69#1365

Like these two posts are essentially the culmination of him catching up on a giant block of posting. Perhaps this is baseless and I'm overthinking this a bit, but it just seems like he's posting in a manner that's just asking for us not to take him seriously.

Yeah. I can very confidently say that I have a clear scum-read on GoodKarma and a town-read on everyone else in this game.

He's done so little this game, and everything I thought was a town-tell in the past in his filter is not robust. I've felt like his analysis was bad all game, and that's pretty classic for a scum GK.

There's also the fact that Adam was one of Rayn's scumreads right before his sudden demise. That's some points in Adam's favor.

Anyway, I'll double check all of this tomorrow.

@ GoodKarma

Can you explain your thought process behind the Yamato save? Multiple people in the game expressed a desire to save Ange. Ange was the clear-cut save, and you seemingly ignored everyone's advice.

I've honestly grown pretty tired of this game, and all the bullshit it entails.

Every. Fucking. Game. People want to lynch me for stuff I do day one. Regardless of alignment. And said stuff just carries over endlessly until either the game ends or I am lynched. Sorry Marv, but I'm never ever ever reading role PM's day 1 ever again.


So here's the situation:

I think there's merit to everyone being town at this point, including Shao. So we have nine people, and among them I'd assume one scum (two would be a bit odd with 2 3P, which should go without saying). As such, we determine who to lynch and in what order today.

We can afford three mislynches, or 4 tries at this in total.

If we take Corazon to be "modconfirmed town," and assume that everyone on DP wagon is town, we're left with this situation.: We lynch into Oats, Adam, Shao, Hapa. It's just a matter of order.

Honestly, at this point, I'll probably just sheep whatever Obvious/Corazon/Coag/Sloosh come to a consensus on. I'm kind of worn out this game, and I don't need to be some kind of master scumhunter this game. We lynch between those four targets the next four days we should win.


This rings somewhat hollow to me. No one is suspicious of you for Day 1 things. No doubt that somewhat plays into the equation, but your play on N1/D2 has been fairly lackluster compared to the effort that other people have put in. Shiao for example, came in and burst-posted more over the span of 1-2 hours than you had over the last day or so.



@ Corazon

I think you should roleclaim. If you're actually a blue-role, there's a pretty good chance that GK is scum - 4 blue roles is really extreme for this setup.

If there are no other blues, it doesn't preclude the possibility of GK being town.

And as a last, but slightly preachy point...

If you are finding yourself getting tunneld on Day 1 every game, not-reading your role PM probably isn't the answer, and you probably should look to your own play to see why players are getting on you.

Well I wasn't 100% sure about Yamato being town.
The fact was that Yamato would not shut up about the secret vote and insisted that it was DP. I didn't want to change it to make Yamato tunnel me and confuse the town right before the lynch.


That's fair. Not like the votes have a mafia motive anyway, given that you had a chance to save DP.

The problem I have with GK's claim is that it's really, really convenient.

Firstly, he's claiming to have jailed the only guy (Yamato) who isn't around to verify his claim (given Acro's RB fuckup). Secondly, Ange was the obvious save for the night, so that adds further questions to his target choice. Thirdly, we basically have to assume that marv used his 1-shot vigi ability to kill Yamato and essentially made a YOLO shot. I suppose it's possible, but it would be an incredibly risky move for him to do.

And lastly, there's a pretty high chance that the last scum is a roleblocker. A mafia RB literally has no choice but to claim JK to keep his story straight in future days.

And lastly lastly, the wording/construction of GK's "frustration" post is really calm and collected given the mentality he's portraying.

Complete sentences, immaculate punctuation, and even has the level-headedness to come up with some long-term lynch plan.

Then "oh btw, I'm the JK".

It's not something that reads like a truly angry/frustrated townie, who would be panicing, mentally disjointed, irrational, etc. It reads as constructed.

So either you are lying, or the host is.



Wait a sec, from just at start d2.
Factional KP cannot be blocked. As gk picked that quote he must have known that he couls not defensively rb. so yamato would have been an offensive rb. while that makes more sense it is still weird why would you rb your null???


Wait wut?

Just to clarify terminology:
Offensive JK = trying to Roleblock someone (usually to block factional KP)
Defensive JK = trying to save someone from a NK

Now obviously it doesn't make very much sense for GK to offensive JK Yamato. However nothing precludes him from Defensive JK'ing Yamato. At that point in the game, Yamato was obv not-scum since he was on the DP wagon. While GK mentioned Yamato as a null read early in the game, most of his analysis structure in the past two days basically assumes that everyone on the DP wagon is town (including Yamato).

That being said, JK'ing Yamato is both convenient for the purposes of a fake-claim, and suboptimal (given Ange was the clear save target on N1).

@Corazon:

From the OP:

"Overview: This is a closed setup. There are no standard notifications (RB, save, hit) in this game and there will be full role reveal on death. Passive abilities and factional KP cannot be roleblocked. The town win condition is to eliminate all anti-town players."

So either you are lying, or the host is.



Wait a sec, from just at start d2.
Factional KP cannot be blocked. As gk picked that quote he must have known that he couls not defensively rb. so yamato would have been an offensive rb. while that makes more sense it is still weird why would you rb your null???


Wait wut?

Just to clarify terminology:
Offensive JK = trying to Roleblock someone (usually to block factional KP)
Defensive JK = trying to save someone from a NK

Now obviously it doesn't make very much sense for GK to offensive JK Yamato. However nothing precludes him from Defensive JK'ing Yamato. At that point in the game, Yamato was obv not-scum since he was on the DP wagon.

but he cannot defensively jk, cause factional kp cannot be rbed?


Wait. Offensive JK is about blocking KP. Defensive JK is about saving someone.

Now obviously Offensive makes no sense in regards to Yamato. However Defensive makes sense, since Yamato was obvtown after the DP flip.

I think the OP means that you can't roleblock mafia KP.

Not that you can't prevent KP in the first place. Though doesn't hurt to ask.

Well Adam would be the first on my mind. Returning to the "least robust town-read" heuristic, that's probably Adam right now. He's posted some stuff that's made my head nod, but I can't say he's done any groundbreaking/original/compelling analysis.

Shiao sounded very genuine last night. The whole "OMG GK CLAIMED SCUM" thing in the last few hours was weird though.

As for Oats, he's playing this paranoid, spazzy townie that seems hard to fake as scum. He's probably my strongest town read of the 3.

Given that he was repeatedly stating his suspicions on me throughout D1/N1, I assume he probably would push for it to some degree. He was a nuker, so perhaps he wanted to get enough suspicion on me in order to drop a nuke on me and semi-justify it. I really can only speculate about it though.

Then again, it's not like you'll get an objective answer out of me on this subject >>

Well I don't want to be called a dick for not believing him, but his play does not back up his town claim. I hate to say it, but no one's claimed the RB on me and he claimed RB but with no way to verify, so what am I supposed to believe?

I could see a scum GK roleblocking me just in case I was an investigative/vigilante type role (because we had no clue about the set-up before Yamato/Marv's flip) because I was starting to get really tired of his illogical pushes and I was starting to call him scum.


Ignore the claim and his actions for now - what do you think about the post? Tone, townieness, etc?

blaaaargh and then adam brings up a good point

The one thing that's been on the back of my mind this game about Oats, is that he's definetely throwing around his suspicions a lot and acting "paranoid", but he's pushing his suspicions in such a different way than town games I've seen him do in the past.

For example, when he thought I was scum in his last town game (I Swear), he went against all thread sentiment and was hurling suspicion at me, screaming that I was scum and that he wanted me to get lynched. Similarly in Red Team's Prize, he did the same to a town-leader Palmar. Hurled shit at him against all town sentiment and was completely uncompromising about it.

This game... he seems very reluctant to push his reads in any meaningful way. He's poked at me saying I'm scum several times this game, but it has all been a "joke" according to him. He's also poked at Adam, but sounds really reluctant to go after him.

When I think about Oat's contributions in the last few days, it feels like he's been a ghost. I can't remember anything meaningful he's posted, which is really rare given that his town game is all about madly tunneling players.

Since when are you suspicious of GK anyway?

Fuck, have you even read that post of his?

Looking through the last few pages of your filter, I see you mention him a couple of times...
Adam, why is shiao and GK scum? You only summarized shit and didnt say why that makes them scum.

GK saying he is obvtown instead of town is rubbing me the wrong way. Its like obv town is your appearance to the thread, town is your actual alignment.

Im only inclined on lynching Adam/GK/Hapa today.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok final say on GK. I feel that his misguided push on me is townie because I dont think he wouldve done it as scum considering I thought he was scum off 1-2 posts. So drawing my attention? Bad.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And if GK is scum, lotta reads are wrong.
But yeah i agree with the analysis about the GK and Shiao issue.

Actually explain this more, do you not feel my push on yamato and adam being as not meaningful? Can you say why?


You're "pushing" them but it's so much more passive than your pushes in past games against other players.

Why aren't you voting the guy? You clearly think he's scum above all your other reads. Yet it sounds like you're waiting for the approval of others of your case before you do anything.

Hapa and Sloosh's unvote is not weird in light of that post by GK. If you cannot get how town that post makes him look, which you apparently cannot, since you said its a scum claim, then you are not looking at it properly and trying to figure out his alignment. It has genuine town frustration for yet again being the subject of discussion, despite his best efforts stamped all over it.

I dont agree with the genuine town frustration part.
I think its a carefully crafted ragequit post.


The guy said he was quitting mafia for good. Using that argument as scum is a realllll dick move, and something I just don't see scum having the balls/heart to pull off.

Anyway, I've read through Oats' filter several times right now, and I really don't think he's scum.

His play is so absurdly attention-whorey and spazzy, which lines up with his town games very well. All his posts reek of paranoia, and him being "unreasonable" is completely par with his town games.

@ Coag

I don't know what scum-slip you found, but it would have to be really, absurdly compelling to go agains the behavior tells in Oats' filter.

My feeling is Shiao as well.

Yes he had that burst of "gahh I'm lost" posting, but he seems more interested in that than actaully finding mafia.

There are two things that are wierding me out about his filter right now:

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=417453&currentpage=78#1542
This post, in which he expresses doubts about GoodKarma yet wants to trade with him anyway. Trading is something you do when you're 100% convinced the other person is scum, and not as a "eh I'm not sure" move.

...And this...

Shiao's a smart guy, so him not seeing eye-to-eye with us on the GK issue is a bit alarming. I'd expect this from Oats, but not from Shiao.

I also really don't understand why his switch flipped all of a sudden when GK made his JK claim:

If anything, that claim should make you doubt his allignment, and not immediately remove all doubts about his allignment.

##Vote ShiaoPi

Last scum...
I don't think it's Oats. It's definitely not GK.

It might be Adam, but his posting just sounds so terrible in his scum-games, and he seems interested in figuring out the game right now. Even if he's barking up the wrong tree with Oats, his suspicions are basically what happens when someone plays with Oats the first time.

I think it's Shiao. His recent push on GK (in spite of the towniest martyr ever) is troublesome. Also his transition from "fuck me I'm lost I guess I'll vote GK cause he's my only possible lead" to -----> OMG GK claimed JK he scumscum doesn't strike me as organic.

Why would he do that? He literally just played a game as scum where he dominated and had a flawless victory. I don't think we've hammered or flamed him to a point where he wants to quit. He's just being dramatic and emotional. That's not alignment indicative.


Well more because he's been mislynched in his past few town-games. Plus in his scum-games, he's never dramatic or emotional. He's always really, really level headed and calm.

Also GK is much more known as a town player than a scum player.

Normal martyr posts... no.

A martyr post saying you're quitting TL Mafia... yes.


Why would he do that? He literally just played a game as scum where he dominated and had a flawless victory. I don't think we've hammered or flamed him to a point where he wants to quit. He's just being dramatic and emotional. That's not alignment indicative.


Well more because he's been mislynched in his past few town-games. Plus in his scum-games, he's never dramatic or emotional. He's always really, really level headed and calm.

Also GK is much more known as a town player than a scum player.


These aren't really good reasons to call him town based off of one post. He's played a scummy game and now he's town to you because he writes one emotional post saying he's going to quit.

My votes are staying right where they are.


I changed my read because it's an absurdly townie post, along with several other vets in this game.

Just understand that you're a double-voter and you'll have a lot of sway over who flips in the next few days. If we lynch GK and he flips JK, no more hipster voting... mmkay?

Yeah. Alright.

By the way, no one has claimed their RB on me. It's just way too convenient for him to claim and then say he JK'd Yamato.

Yamato was probably #3 or #4 choice of RB for an actual RB. There were a lot better choices.


Well it's not like the actual scum RB is going to walk in here and claim that they roleblocked you.

The thing is, yes GK made a suboptimal decision regarding the JK. However, you can't discount the fact that people are capable of making suboptimal decisions. If we lynched people for doing stupid things all the time, town would never win any mafia games. Hell it's not like saving Yamato was completely out of the ballpark of a save since Yamato was very obv-town and is known for being a fairly capable scum-hunter.

It doesn't make up for the scummy game he has played. He spent the last half of N1 trying to get me lynched, and then didn't follow through on it once D2 started. He also jumped on the "no rb notifications" really quickly after I announced my RB. I really don't think anyone would've paid attention to that unless they were an RB role themselves. Once it was clear that Acro had made a mistake, he just dropped his scum read on me 100%. It's just him continuing to follow thread sentiment.


You do realize that the JK role is essentially an RB rile, right?

When was the last time you saw a scum martyr, self-vote, and peace out of the thread for good?

Self-vote being the key, as it's the lack of a survival instinct here that makes GK's post very compelling form a townie perspective.

Alright. This is getting us absolutely nowhere. I propose a deal to you. We both came to the same (correct!) conclusion on ShiaoPi. We take one day of the next cycle where we do not attack each other. We go through everyone else in the game and try to come up with SOMETHING that isn't both of us slinging shit at each other.

If after that day we still have nothing, we happily go back to voting each other and then town can flip one of us. Deal?


Every time I want to lynch Adam, he posts something like this and convinces me he's town.

I wish I could say I was satisfied with lynching anyone right now, but I"m not. Oats is probably my biggest lead. GK can die in a fire if he pulled the "quitting TL" shit as mafia.

At this point, half process-of-elimination and half nagging feelings about your behavior.

Overall I feel you've been active and "chaotic", but there are just some things in your filter that make me "WTF". Such as you calling GK's martyr post a scum-claim yet voting Adam. Or you not even voting Adam. And the association case on you with DP I posted earlier.

A bunch of things like that.

And the problem is that it's so hard for me to look at anyone other than you, Adam, and GK, and believe that anyone else could be scum.
Coag is the obv-vigi.
sloOsh not only hammered DP, but has came across as really townie through his scum-hunting efforts
ObviousOne was not only targeted by DP and Rayn, but voted DP himself. And nothing about that wagon looked like a bus. Not to mention that OO has come across as fairly townie (which is why he wasn't lynched D1 in the first place)

Cora's behavior has been questionable/unhelpful, but he also 99% mod-confirmed with the RB claim. And something like scum intentionally roleblocking themselves (in a setup where targets aren't normally notified) makes very little sense.

So who's left - you, GK, and Adam.

And tbh, I just want to lynch into all 3 of you consecutively and win.

It was one of my scum-games. If you think I was at all engaged in that game, then you're sorely mistaken.

But again, how is forgetting about a player list from games months ago at all alignment indicative? All it proves is that I was wrong. And that perhaps Adam's suspicions on you have more merit than I had originally thought.

And the fact that you talked almost exclusively about GK day 2. And did nothing else, not even questioning me or adam about anything other than GK. Even after his martyr post, I felt like you instantly thought he was confirmed town, without even questioning anything.


I talked only about GK Day 2? Are you reading my filter? What the fuck are you smoking?

As for the martyr post, that thing is really fucking townie, and I've explained it several times in my filter. Hell if I was scum, what on earth's my motivation for defending GK?

Not doing anything with our conclusions on Shiao and lynching him.


Yes, because I totally factor your opinions into my lynch decisions. I thought the guy was scum, and I lynched him.

And I was wrong. Welp.

His play is so absurdly attention-whorey and spazzy, which lines up with his town games very well. All his posts reek of paranoia, and him being "unreasonable" is completely par with his town games.

@ Coag

I don't know what scum-slip you found, but it would have to be really, absurdly compelling to go agains the behavior tells in Oats' filter.


so I assume you figured out that that wasnt a scumslip. Why didnt you post anything about it?


Clearly I have been posting about it, given that I've been asking Coag wtf he's talking about.

More than 50% of your filter day 2 is related to GK, and you reacted to GK's martyr post like scum reacts to blue claims. Instantly believing.


50% of almost everyone's filter is GK, given that he was the main discussion topic of the day. Hell how the fuck is having 50% of one's activity talking about one person even scummy, especially when that person is the main scum-suspect of the thread?

Finally, have you looked at the other 50%? Having 50% of my filter on stuff OTHER than GK is a pretty big freggin deal, and is very different than "talking about GK all of Day 2."

Like you have 90% of your Day 2 filter about Adam, and Adam has 90% of his D2 filter about you, and that's not alignment indicative.

Why didnt you even take into account ANY THING me and Adam said about Shiao?


I did. I just didn't think it was conclusive or compelling enough to act on. Just because I don't explicitly post something doesn't mean it doesn't factor into my decisions.

Why not throw shit on him, maybe he gets lynched


Trust me, you've thrown enough shit at virtually every other player in the game.

So hapa, why am I scum?


It's not even that I think you're scum at this point. It's that I have such a hard time believing that anyone else could be scum.

Like on behavior, this conversation gives me town vibes with both you and Adam. If so, then who's scum?

Do we spite-lynch GK tomorrow then cross our fingers?

Like if I had to go on strict behavior, Cora gives me the scummiest vibes. However he also has one of the strongest alibis with the roleblock.

Virtually everyone else in this game I have a strong town read on, and my head is spinning because of it.

The only way this game makes sense for me is if there is a traitor, or if there's a bus-driver somewhere.

Well Adam, let's assume that Oats is town for now (for the sake of argument).

Who would you think about lynching? Can you run down the players for me?

Can you explain how the RB on Cora is from scum?


I'm assuming since no one has claimed it.

But on that subject, we should probably mass-claim first thing on Day 3.

Well, as we just proved, the RB is most probably scumside. Scum dont actually roleblock themselves when they claim roleblock, so the fact that acro confirmed that Cora was roleblocked means that he is most probably not scum.


For what it's worth, I had JayBrundage roleblock himself and claim roleblock when we were scum together.

However given the ruleset (with roleblocks not being notified), a scum RB roleblocking themselves seems realllllly farfetched.

Hell we can probably take Cora off the table period since he's the confirmed double-voter. And mafia doublevoter/RB doesnt make much sense.

Even sloOsh - he hammered DP and has shown many times more the engagement in scumhunting and posting than I've ever seen him do as scum.

...hence the confusion.

Anyway I need to get some sleep. Suppose it can't hurt to hear more from sloOsh.

Hapa, do you still think im scum? Or has the conversation earlier soothed your fears?


I don't think anyone is scum, so I kinda think everyone is scum. So no I wouldn't say it soothed my fears, but just made me more confused.

At this point, I'm more trying to figure out how to set up the best possible LYLO for the town. Therefore, we should start lynching people who we wouldn't want there. Who this entails lynching - we'll see. I'll probably post something after update, since I'm pretty busy this afternoon. Plus it's very doubtful I'll get shot tonight anywho.
