(For what it's worth, I think Chrom was very townie this game. That dude hunted like a mothertrucker.)

For me now, scum-hunting is not looking at actions but at motivations. It's not hard for scum to act like town, but it's really hard for scum to make their motivations appear to be town. For example, my motivation on D1 was to keep Gotard alive while letting the wagon backed by Stim and Chrom win. I backed myself into a corner though, where I could not save Gotard D2.

A good example Sponge:

My motivation for attacking you at the start of D2 was because you knew scum shot Rainbows, therefore you might be the SK. I did not really back off until I thought that you were blue.

I think xzavier could have survived the day 3 lynch if he fought harder, then it would be hard for me to lose.

cause i know umasi is on the fence and i am diffidently backing him.

also i think i would have survived a LYLO against super or slam.

Xzavier did not put enough time in, though.

If I could of told him what to say D3 then I think I could of gotten him out of it, but he had no confidence to try himself so he just played league of legends.

Yeah, if you look through my filter knowing who's who you could interpret my posts as fake soft-claiming cop. I do this a decent amount because it can make mafia waste a kill on me instead of going after real cop. Didn't work out too much this game because I had so much pressure on me early.

Also, my first two and top scumreads were hzflank and xzavier. Too pro.

I could not waste a kill on you though, because if you flipped Cop then someone would of read your filter and Xzav would of been lynched. I wanted you alive until you were pressured enough to claim cop during the day, then xzav would of counter claimed and traded 1-1. I did not mind losing Xzav after a mislynch on the Cop, but I did not want to lose him after night-killing the cop.

If I had interpreted your soft-claim, I would have hard claimed and pushed for your lynch. Which would have ended up with both of us dead.

Thinking about it more, I wouldn't call it soft claim. It's more giving out a fake read I guess. Mafia is looking for cop and trying to get a read on them. I didn't soft claim so much as talk about cop a lot and the importance of cop. I don't think I ever did something as blatant as when alak soft claimed jailer.

##VOTE SUPERFLUOUS

this will be removed once you start some LIGIT scumhunting none of that "vote for one guy, make a case on another guy" bullshits okay?

if i dont think youve done an adequate job/you look more scummy as the day goes on expect this to stay, and a case to be made along with it.


I get the feeling you barely even know what you are saying. It's like you see when other people raise criticisms of me then copy them exactly. Also, it feels SO SCUMMY that you and Umasi are so quick to vote an hour into the day. Don't forget that after the jkirby lynch a decent amount of town said that they felt it was too easy and a town-town lynch, including rainbows who is dead and proved town.

I'd also like to go back on what I said about umasi. Generally I feel it is a good, pro-town move to put pressure on people and get info from them. On day one he pushed me and jrkirby and it didn't work out. Now that's not the worst thing in the world, but then that he immediately goes back and puts pressure on me instead of forcing info/ reads from other people which is much more productive. It's fine that I'm his biggest scum read and he wants to vote for me, but why the rush to vote? It doesn't make him scum, but I don't feel he's clearly town anymore.

Hey guys sorry I've been missing, been sick the last few days and mafia hasn't really taken priority. Regardless I'm back and surprised that I am somehow not the main lynch target. I think Gotard is a good lynch and would like to honor kirby's last reads. That said I find it strange how no one is defending him too too much, though if he's maf it may just be that his teammates felt town would really push his lynch and they didn't want to defend him only for him to turn red.

Other thoughts: Gut still says something's up with Xzavier, but with the revelation of sk it could be that and not necessarily maf.

I agree with Onegu's case against Hurricane, though don't really have much to add to it. I realize it's kinda scummy to show up and just agree with the closest we have to proven but eh.

I feel like Chroma has been playing completely differently day 2 than day 1. Now, maybe that's because he spent the first day defending me and had less to do today, but it feels weird how his main reason for defending me and calling me town was just to lynch kirby. Also keep in mind that while I think Maf killed Rainbows and not Koshi, Koshi WAS going really hard on Chroma for defending me. One line sticks out in my head, Koshi said that considering how hard Chroma was defending me it was almost as if he knew I was town. Something to keep in mind.

I also feel like Umashi has done very little for town on day 2. Day 1 he was putting out pressure and trying to accomplish something, and it doesn't feel the same today. Now, he has ceded this roll to Onegu as he is pretty much confirmed yet hasn't done much himself. (Correct me if you feel I'm terribly wrong, this is just from skimming over and trying to post my thoughts before lynch). I also thought he was the obvious kill for mafia n1 if he was doing a good job of leading town.

i just want to point out taht i played League of legends when i got home from work 2 hours before the deadline, because i knew there was no way for me to clear myself and even if i did there would be no other wagon so they would lynch me anyway. If i woulda been active the day before though i think i might have been able to survive, and i was for an extent, but the case against me was build when i went to sleep and i tried responding to it at work but i was pretty fucking dead :/

if i coulda like been there to talk back i think i coulda survived the day3 lynch, but i was pretty unmotivated when the case was built against me at work, i kind accepted my death.

That was all reads, not even me trying to soft claim LOL. That thought was furthest from my mind there Shout out to the coach who said stay with your gut, it's the best place for reads to come from. I think I said in in game, but my. reads are based on my gut and how I interpret the tone in someone's writing. If I had positive read on someone and was cop I would've claimed. I would've highly doubted there would be miller in a game with sk. (Was there one? Someone was talking about earlier in the thread and I couldn't find it.)

That looks a lot like a soft-claim to me :/

No Miller, just a Framer.

I disagree with you going by your gut. Your D1 read on me was luck imo, as there was no way to have a solid scum read on me that early.

Were there any blues except cop and JK?

Also, everyone who I personally accused of being scum was scum: both hzflank and gotard. Major points for me?

In other words, it was not the Aqua fake pressure play I used in XLIII to stay alive. Onegu's ridiculous read on me was enough for that (although I guess it didn't end up making much of a difference in the end. I was still the second guy NK'd)


Would like a vet to weigh in on this please, was I way off? I saw FirmTofu also said hurricane was scum in obs chat.

GG yall. Just got back from the land of no internet. Still have to read the thread and see what happened. Won 3 games as town so far (mostly luck, I swear).

PS - @Onegu: did you have a hard time because of me?
