We must lynch this Redville scum and take revenge for the mayor!!! Down with FirmTofu!!!! Up with SilkenTofu!!! Constructively discussing? Are we dreaming about a different type of forum mafia. If we wanted constructive discussion, might as well lop off about 24 hours of time and get closer to the voting deadline. Beginning of games is always fluffy and I like fluffy. | ||

Firstly, I'm looking at lynching rules. Is it majority or plurality. I'm going to assume majority by default. Secondly, do we have a countdown clock for the action deadlines? Would be much appreciated. FirmTofu just giving out those scum points. Anyways, we should be happy about these hydras. Two separate people trying to fake town have a much harder time of keeping their Redville lies straight, it's much harder to pull off those scummy conspiracies, and scum slips are twice as likely. Be glad of hydras. | ||

Let's go look over the who might look like a surer lynch among the actives. If no clear candidate, let's go with an inactive. | ||

Getript suggests that we should be lynching him. A bit later, he shows up for a short little post about Tofu and then promptly goes to sleep. As getript suggests "convenient." Also 5T, what are you doing leaving me off your lists!!! You too Tofu!!! I am useless. Totally useless. | ||

Just interesting for now. You say it's stupid. Anything else? Do you think it's alignment-indicative at all? Looking at the post timing, it wasn't that bad of any omission at the time. I don't see it as alignment indicative. | ||

It's a first post so it could be telling or it could just be fluff. The other posts do throw some shit around but bring me back to my sentiment about this game. We're doomed with how many inactives there are currently. So as town, we do have to throw some shit around and watch for what the reactions are from the active players. Then we can come up with a plan or something like that and pose a challenge for scum. | ||

It's not fluff in that it's completely meaningless, but rather Day 1 type interaction. As a first post, it could either be extremely revealing (a slip) or just sort of a getting into the game type entry. I favor the latter interpretation. | ||

Coming into the post, JarJar jumped on Tofu who was the most obvious target and then leaves. This is most likely not indicative of scum as townies seem more likely to do it. But it does provide a quick way to try to pick up on some scum tells. | ||

I'm multitasking. Doing two things at the same time. When votes are counted, lynching an active based on evidence is preferable to lynching an inactive. I'm poking the inactives while I still have time. | ||

I found his absolutely refusal to give reason for it, while commenting on a couple of other things and just repeatedly ducking something like giving reasons for his vote or explaining a comment he made to be mind-boggling. I don't understand it as EITHER faction. He didn't say no, he just consciously avoided specific things and yet answered other questions and poked at me once or twice. I can't understand townies not giving reasoning for their votes/reads, especially when I've seen him do it. I can't understand mafia just straight up going "Nope nope nope, better not acknowledge that someone wants my read here, better just drop my head in the sand." Because it's not a read, yet, and if I'm probing, I am not going to telegraph how I will be probing. It isn't effective. I was clear that it was a pressure vote and I stand by that. Still not seeing where I am dropping head in the sand. | ||

You talked about why TAA was also somewhat scummy. You talked about being left off of lists. About inactives. But dear sweet jesus you REFUSED to discuss your actual vote, what you wanted JJD to discuss, etc. etc. I see I ignored you for the longest time and that was because I was read the thread and giving thought on other things, rather than wanting to reveal what questions I wanted to spring on JJD when he is back that he would want to answer because I had my vote on him. Also I don't think TAA is scum. What he did in his first series of posts can be considered scummy. | ||

But anyway, that's just MY opinion, and it's regarding DocH who is either replacing out or getting modkilled or providing further content later, so it's whatever. Really? Scum would refuse a mislynch served on a platter for them? Especially with how Geript blew up at DocH for that. Sheeping as scum would be the lowest risk play ever. Just do it and continue to fly under the radar. DocH is very unlikely to be scum, ok!? Your idea is that scum takes a shot at saving a town and while preserving lynch-bait? Weight the risks and rewards, there. Look at the heat on DocH. It's not even close. | ||

Noone is lynched! Only DocH(Onegu) was around for the bandwagon moment. Who do you think scum could have mobilised for a mislynch? Your conclusion is only valid if the mislynch is easily possible. Since it hinged on Onegu, that's why I am confident he's town. | ||

He figured voting for himself wouldn't have actually mattered at that point and didn't catch up or care enough about this game at that point to help us out. It had nothing to do with him being a towny or scum not dropping the hammer imo. I think scum probably knew this so I don't really think that argument holds much water. @WoS Scum DrH would come from a position of information unlike Town DrH which would be in ignorance. Acting on their information is what should be happening and a mislynch was the easy answer. Do you think scum would act as DrH apparently did and abstained from the vote? Again, scum DrH COULD STILL make the no-lynch play if they were confident that I would be lynch bait and waste town time on a Day 2 lynch. In such a play, they'd have to know town well and be able to push town agenda. Given that, I'd expect one of the more vocal town voices to be scum and DrH would have been prepared for some kind of pressure on the null vote. He surely would not have rage quit. The way I see it, I was completely focused on Onegu. There is nothing in my post about myself except the unquestionable assumption that I am town. If you want to analyse me via my posting, clearly you'll have to peel back the assumption and run through the scum scenarios. @Marv Not sure what kind of mentality you mean by "self-centric." | ||

Mom, you're no fun. Anyways, I'll repeat what I said before about setup speculation. If we believe the three role-claims excluding TTA's (how did three town players claim on day two!?), then from a balance perspective, Redville scum probably have a Roleblocker and Godfather as those scum power roles are good counterbalance to claimed town power roles. The RBer against the Vig and the Godfather against Cops. (A scum JOAT jack-of-all-trades in place of Roleblocker is an interesting possibility.) As the only one to claim being RB'd, either one of town/scum Roleblocker didn't use their abilities in N1 or the town Roleblocker doesn't exist. VE/Marv's dumb mafia RB action idea is believable considering the comparably dumb town role-claiming. Of course, it could also be next level play.

@Oats What are your thoughts on 3p possibilities? @VE On July 25 2013 18:49 FiveTouch wrote: It's really simple if you just think Oats. Possibility 1) TG town. He has no reason to lie about being roleblocked. Possibility 2) TG scum. Maybe they hid a RB under the rayn shot. Maybe they didn't RB at all. But scum wouldn't RB one of their own. He could be lying about RB. To answer your question, if scum ACTUALLY REALLY roleblocked TG, we can assume he's town. Unfortunately we can't know for sure. We know he claimed it and we know that scum wanted us to believe it. -VE Can you point to posts fleshing out part of the analysis? | ||

In the middlepost, Cora sort of talks about how 4 blues in town would be unbalance and in such a situation the most suspicious blue claim would have to be getmoript.

A disorganized scum team with one inactive player barely joining the team before the Night Action deadline could have lead to such a decision playing out. | ||

However, I don't understand the sidetrack to Onegu/getmoript/Cora when the topic was about TAA. And he repeatedly threw out getmoript false claiming scenarios without looking at the TAA response. I guess players more familiar with Tofu play will be able to say if this is genuine inability to discern a clear scum tell or trying to stall a lynch. | ||

I didn't unvote him several times, and I started playing the second half of D2 like TAA was going to be the lynch. I don't understand where you are going with that. Secondly, I did not call into question Getmoript's claim after TAA had claimed scum RB. While it doesn't really make sense to have 2 investigators, I'm more likely to believe Getmoript now that he was right about TAA. The roles look a bit more balanced with scum having a RB. And then the last point you made is you trying to fish for reasons to make me look like scum. Try harder. Oh come on, Cora. The case is all about not whether you believe Getmoript now. It was whether or not you were actually considering TAA as town/scum scenarios. I'm saying you didn't consider the TAA as town because you knew it wasn't going to happen. | ||

I think TAA was supposed to be Corazon... Tofu corrects it later. Because Getmoript jumped on Tofu immediately for that. See if you can follow the thread and find it. I'm not sure what to make of the typo/mistake though. | ||

So I just need to ask, how confident are your one-for-one reads between for jrkirby and I. Because I'm not seeing a firm read on scum jrkirby. On July 25 2013 12:26 jrkirby wrote: Yes, his day 1 posting as a whole troubles me. But I really don't think it's damning. I think this is what VE is basically saying? The major difference is that jrkirby is really lurky and FiveTouch is all confirmed town. FiveTouch, if you end up being scum I'm going to have to congratulate you for being one deep mastermind, as a hydra even. We've got 8-2 or 7-1-2 currently. If we can hit one mafia in the Night and Day and head into Day 4 with 5-1 or 4-1-1 and at least 1 confirmed town and 2 mis-lynches to go. As long as you're confident that you can at least get 1 out of 2, it should be a good plan? Just don't be completely wrong and hit two towns and head into MYLO. Be prepared to eat your words, austin. | ||

Someone please convince me or at least Onegu about the information we're going to get from town flip out of me is going to be worthwhile. Onegu, if you decide to shoot me, give me a heads up so I can write up a final post on my other reads. Otherwise I'll hold them in reserve to see if I can improve them. @ FiveTouch + Show Spoiler + It makes sense in review as the probable scenario that getript should have foreseen and expected when making the claim. I think that it is certainly worded for that interpretation. | ||

Upstanding Blueville getmoript A hydra with a correct DT claim on TAA and pretty much clear town all the way through the game. There is almost no question that this guy is town and is most definitely Blue too. FiveTouch The other hydra. I think Marv was my guardian angel for the longest time, although he is probably wrong that I couldn't make the counter arguments the way I did when under pressure, I probably wouldn't have had the creativity to try it as scum. Day 1 VT claim into close lynch into Night 1 Lurk and Early Day 1 RB'd claim is some crazy shit. Seriously, if you are red, I will bow down and worship your crazy masterminding ways. OneguI pretty much cleared DocH on this one and then Onegu made that awfully dumb but town only Vig claim. But this can only be a town claim and matches DocH's behavior. Definitely a blue. Still, what the fuck Onegu. Mr Third Party Oatsmaster and Survivor. Since the start of Day 2, I've placed Oatsmaster more and more into a third party role. Oatsmaster starts off as bored and disinterested and really telegraphs his uselessness in terms of NK to scum and sets up as mild lynchbait as well. When the balance of power shifts to town favor after day 2 lynch, Oatsmaster shifts into more scum hunting mode. The Murky Purple Color Coded to show probable alignments. jrkirby jrkirby says that he is both going to siggraph and is busy with work. Appears to mirror JJD's but is even more lurky. Ultimately the fearlessness of his reads while under the gun lands him on the towny side of the spectrum. Yet the spectre of the lurkiness still hangs over the guy. I don't think anything will help for the shot, but he promises to play more. JarJarDinks I have no idea why JJD thought getmoript was scum and he seems really slow to read the thread. I think he's a bit unclear with wording and arguments. cDgCorazon I made a case for shoot this guy earlier in the day and looking back maybe it is more because of how frustrating it was to read his filter. From questioning the Onegu claim to impulsively claiming RoleCop, Corazon seemed to bumble in all kinds of anti-town ways. Of the purples, I think cDgCorazon is the most likely to be scum. But combine the late entry into the game with self-professed poor town play and willingness of Marv to read this guy as almost braindead has soften my previous read. The Big Read The remaining players are my top scum reads. I know there will be some hint of OMGUS as both of these players are heavily targeting me, but I've bided my time long enough for the evidence to develop, and will be presenting it in a separate post. | ||

TheAwesomeAll FirmTofu austinmcc The Narrative The opening strategy of this scum team is to open with some fluffy messages between two of the scum members so there can be some distance between the team. When push comes to shove, the two scum members don't actually press hard into each other. When in doubt, the third safe and towny member will escort the two out of trouble and guide the pressure away. In the mess of the first day, the safe towny member would seize opportunities against scummy towns. The other two will provide support if possible. Through this process, the scum will also attempt to gain the ear of town leadership and that's how they attempt to influence town agenda. While seemingly distant and unrelated and always talking to different guys, the scum team is actually coordinated and won't have horrendous cases of miscommunication where they totally misunderstand each other's intent. FirmTofu - TheAwesomeAll This Day1 interaction is essentially a bait. They will look scummy, fluffy, and even a bit newbie. However, anyone wading into the mess can be ambushed by austinmcc if vulnerable enough. With the stuff of day 1 lynch basically burying the suspicions of the opening act. Still, while distanced, the two players are still trying to support each other. Familiarity I think this is the first sign of a slip where TAA unveils unwarranted amount of knowledge about FirmTofu. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=420356¤tpage=13#254 On July 22 2013 05:30 getmoript wrote: Do you know fuck all about Tofu?

Whether you attack him or not, he isn't going to start suddenly giving a shit. Vigi him if you have to. Stop wasting time talking to him. For the lynch tomorrow, TG is the only viable choice. He's been scummy all game long and needs to be exterminated. His death would also provide us invaluable information about jrk and DrH, maybe even Oats. As for where discussion should go..., I think we should be talking about people like TAA and JJD, maybe rayn as well. There are people who are currently sitting in the null-scum territory for me and are likely to scumslip when pressured. I'm going to go through their filters and see if I can find some dirt on them.

I think claiming RB is very much a null tell, it shouldnt change your position on TG too much. If Getmoript had just waited a bit longer on his role-claim, it might not even needed to happen. TAA Defense When TAA was in trouble, FirmTofu enters the thread and proceeds to try to throw up as much distraction as possible. It looks like a delaying tactic to not talk about TAA and focus on the blue claims. Including questioning Getmoript's cop claim while never "really defending TAA."

Speculation: id guess oats is town because it would be really stupid to tunnel some townie and then shoot him super speculation: oats might be vigi and shot rayne but i dont know where the mafia killpower went then.

Austin basically explained everything and even pulled out another example game in support: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=420356¤tpage=60#1193 TAA Vote Both austinmcc and FirmTofu vote at the end of the run when it looks austinmcc Day one Austin day one was offensive against Oatsmaster and me. Defensive for TAA and FirmTofu. Even had a "with that last post by XXXX I don't think he is scum anymore." Based on the attack, I had austin on a town read on day one. After that austin basically coasted without producing too much venturous new material either night 1 or day 2. Other stuff Miscellaneous Austin Reading One weird thing is that austin said that I claimed VT during the night in http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=420356¤tpage=64#1276 I definitely claimed VT Day 1. I don't know what to make of this mistake, but since austin was exhorting FiveTouch to read me, I didn't expect him to make this mistake. Tunneling Both FirmTofu & austinmcc have tunneled me hard with nothing to dislodge their argument against me. I think this is what getript considers more of scum meta. I'm not too keen on this one. Although it does make sense to follow through on your scummy plans. But tunnelling seems a bit all-in. Roleblock on Me What the fuck. What the fuck. | ||

But if you aren't confident about the vig shot, then it's a bad idea. The other downside is that you might give mafia two KP. The upside to a vig shot is that if you do hit scum, you also have a lynch to work with the next day. | ||

If we want to we can treat the vig as a night lynch. If mafia-hit we can do a psuedo double lynch with the day lynch the following day. If a town kill, we can just no-lynch the following day and it'll just be like a mislynch. | ||

First, let's look at his one reason not to be targeted: Being targeted by TAA in post: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=420356¤tpage=81#1615 The reason and the supposed distance between TAA as generated by the first day banter posts is immaterial. TAA didn't even vote for Tofu on Day1 and got lynched Day 2. He voted getmoript both days. Posts made by TAA on Day 2 were throw aways and TAA never pushed his read. On the contrary, TAA tried to bridge the gap and make an argument for FirmTofu, the idea that a RB'd claim by yours truly should not be alignment indicative for town but rather harden the case for scum read. TAA does this in the worst way possible. On July 24 2013 06:16 TheAwesomeAll wrote: Its funny 5touch is defending TG again. I have a scum read on neither but gotta keep an eye on things like that.

I think claiming RB is very much a null tell, it shouldnt change your position on TG too much. Look at it. "I don't hold your views but if you thought that, this is how you should think now." This is clear manipulation and discussion in bad faith. Townie discussions would rather be something like: "I'm trying to understand your thought process. I think I would come to this other conclusion, instead." The distance that Tofu claims - the amount TAA wants him dead - is non-existent, and there is contradicting evidence. | ||

You'll need to help me on whether or not these mistakes are possible with a town Tofu as well. Not only do we see FirmTofu not get a committed attack from TAA, we see FirmTofu distract attention and run interference for TAA. The best example comes during TAA's lynching. Missing the scum claim post is possible as matter of timing, however, Tofu basically dragged the conversation sideways against getmoript for a while and then asked getmoript to read TAA for scum. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=420356¤tpage=58#1147 Left out of his post filtering is the red - that he could not have possibly omitted because of timing. On July 24 2013 06:16 TheAwesomeAll wrote: Its funny 5touch is defending TG again. I have a scum read on neither but gotta keep an eye on things like that. And that post combined with the following one as discussed previously is very scummy. I really don't like a town missing this read.

In the end, FirmTofu is the 6th person to vote for TAA when it is all but certain that TAA will be lynched. In addition to the Day 2 defense that failed, FirmTofu also excluded or distanced TAA from any of the Day 1 no-lynch pressure. In the run up to the Day 1 Lynch, only Rayne announced that he would be gone for the deadline and without Zeph (Corazon), there were TAA, jrkirby, and DocH(Onegu) outstanding.

I believe this is enough to show that there is a level of cooperation between TAA and FirmTofu and some willful ignoring of the scummy scum. There's some other early game reads that the two hydras had. Those reads and aside from the bad defense of TAA, FirmTofu doing nothing except tunnel jrkirby and I and occasionally glance over Corazon should be a solid case for scum Tofu. @FiveTouch, JJD, Onegu, jrkirby, Corazon Vote? or Argue? | ||

Scum will know both cop status and sanity. I'll know what to think about his sanity. (I don't know if he is really a cop.) The rest of town won't know. (sanity or cop status) You also know that I (as either town or scum) will say that I think he is sane. I haven't put his cop claim to serious question at all. | ||

I still don't know why he just announced his role without any info at all. So, I can't give a good recommendation for who to shoot between me and TG, because I think we're both town. I might slightly prefer TG getting shot, but that's only because I think I'll play better from here on out, I KNOW I'm town, and only think that he's town, and I like being alive.

FirmTofu's interaction with TAA is a little bit sketch, but the second part of your case (in which you say he pressures multiple people near the D1 deadline) only shows to me what he cared about the vote and wanted you dead, which would be really ballsy for scum to do. If he was scum, he would not have cared too much if you had died or not. A no-lynch is still really good for scum, which tells me that TAA's efforts to drive your lynch home do not have much scum motivation. It's not the driving home of the lynch it's that FirmTofu didn't call out TAA. It is almost as if he knew that TAA wouldn't show up and didn't want to call out TAA and draw attention. FirmTofu also wasn't the only one pushing. He blended in with the WoS angry reaction. The sort of contrast between DocH, jrkirby treatment and the TAA treatment is there. | ||

This is really hard to do as scum. Because scum would have to be really well prepared for that scenario. Honestly TAA appears completely blindsided by the claim as evident by the virtually dead scum slip. Now that I'm reviewing, Corazon snapped called even faster than TAA's scum slip. Wow... | ||

Teflon Austin Basically strategy of scum play is to get a scum member to look very towny and have a place to influence town agenda.

So I come down to really looking at zephir and Oats, and wanting to lynch Oats between the pair. On July 22 2013 09:27 austinmcc wrote: Went ahead and voted Oats. There's merit on both sides of the TAA thing, but I like that post and his response to me as townie posts. The only caveat is that if 5T is town and marv disagrees with my thought process entirely and thinks I'm dumb and TAA is mafia, then it ups that chance TAA is mafia by more than I'd like. It's an added bonus that wading into this mess for others is a bit of a minefield since austinmcc can pounce at any moment. I literally walked into this and as soon as getmoript did his intimidation thing, I was in serious trouble. austinmcc took the opportunity to look really towny. On July 22 2013 11:35 getmoript wrote: I ask because I have like super hella meta on JJD. He's one of like 3-4 people who i am 100% on my meta reads on. All that pressure was to get a reaction from him. I'm fine-ish on him right now. I'd like to see more before solidify him as green but I don't want to lynch him today. Move your vote. Austinmcc is goes to town on me and it's even easier after I back down. Forum veterans have to stop doing this to newcomers. That's sort of the Day 1 Guardian Austinmcc. Deflecting some pressure but ultimately not that successful with TAA and ending up having to kill Rayn in the night to protect FirmTofu. I'm really the reason why the strategy was so successful. Day 2 At this point Austinmcc goes to work on FiveTouch since he is in such good standing. He tries to push his reads and exert influence on the influential and active players of the game. One of the big events in the day 2 is l Austinmcc sheeping on the TAA vote (7th in line) and fishing Tofu back out of danger with a quick series of posts. (way more on this in another post) After that austinmcc continues to work on FiveTouch and continues to defend Tofu. Basically Austinmcc pretends that nothing really happened during the TAA vote. Continues to defend Tofu after having been instrumental in fishing the guy out of the brink. On July 25 2013 23:34 austinmcc wrote: Need to do some more rereading. Don't like FirmTofu as a shot right now: (1) SUPER HARD "defended" a guy who was clearly getting lynched (2) on SUPER WEIRD grounds. I am more inclined to believe actually that FirmTofu really did have some runin with fake-claiming Ace and that was fresh on his mind. I think a TG shot is fine. I think a jrkirby shot is maybe less fine, the conversation I had with him last night was...he was VERY freely saying some stuff that could get him into hot water/make him look scummy. Like, if he's scum, then scum is just saying "I'm townie cuz this guy's posts weren't awful and he scumhunted" followed by not pulling up any not-awful posts and only finding scumhunting with 45 minutes to go in the day because people had been bullying him for reads. I don't count that as scumhunting, and it looks VASTLY different from the last game I saw TanGeng in (as town). To just straight up type those things and post them is, imo, a super mega outrageous plan if jrkirby is scum. | ||

In the game of Mafia, any thing involving townies are real conversations. They are talking trying to figure out what the other guy is saying. But communication is never perfect, either because of bad or hasty writing skills or bad or hasty reading comprehension. Conversations happen in fits and starts with some questions coming back immediately or misunderstanding between people lasting pages and pages. This is the nature of town conversations. There is miscommunication. The amount of miscommunication depends on the person. Careful readers and writers will have fewer and time starved readers and writers will have more. All kinds of things can happen. Examples Here: + Show Spoiler + On July 23 2013 11:11 TanGeng wrote: A bit of forgetfulness or just ignoring the red letters everywhere while the getmoript hydra raged and floated just lynching him blindly. Is that not enough risk? I'm still town and it looks like DocH is/was town. I don't know what you are. Example of me reading the post and not following the conversation or something. On July 25 2013 21:13 TanGeng wrote: Want to? Not in normal circumstances. If there is an excellent winning plan that involves me getting vigged, I'd be up for it.

Here I skipped "who" on the first run through and answered "Do I want to get vigged." Hahaha. Realized it afterwards. On July 27 2013 00:15 TanGeng wrote: It's not the driving home of the lynch it's that FirmTofu didn't call out TAA. It is almost as if he knew that TAA wouldn't show up and didn't want to call out TAA and draw attention. FirmTofu also wasn't the only one pushing. He blended in with the WoS angry reaction. The sort of contrast between DocH, jrkirby treatment and the TAA treatment is there. Complicated Ideas require clarification. Sometimes there is just plain combativeness and refusal to read.. In movies and televisions shows, actors can interact, talk, and engage without missing a beat. They can throw one liners out there with their co-workers there to comprehend and respond immediately. These people have preparation, the talking points are planned out, and their conversations are scripted. And this is exactly the advantage scum have. They can plan out their conversations, but there is a potential of a huge scum tell. This tell is that when two masoned individuals performing a rehearsed or nearly rehearsed conversation is that it can look unnaturally smooth without the normal friction that you see between two people actually having a conversation. With this idea let's take a look at the critical part of day two where austinmcc fishes Tofu out of the TAA lynch problem. See this page: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=420356¤tpage=60 Tofu's earlier conversation about the same topic spanned pages!!!! Got sidetracked all the time. And had all sorts of natural conversation flow signatures. This austinmcc & Tofu exchange, however, takes exactly 5 posts over the course of about 20 minutes. BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM and it's over. No real questions and challenges. "You're right. I see. Etc." from Tofu, as austinmcc leads him out of his original position. Tofu sees the logic that he couldn't see before. Given austinmcc worded his response better than other players, Tofu also had to have much better reading comprehension. This is so out of character as to be unbelievable. It's completely scripted. BECAUSE they rehearsed it in scum QT. SCRIPTED. SCUM. LYNCH. | ||

Evaluate my austinmcc/Tofu argument for me. The TL/DR is the two of them scum slipped hard by performing a rehearsed conversation for the rest of town to see. Do you see, understand, and/or are convinced by that case? I need to see where I need to strengthen or clarify my case. I also need to take a step back. | ||

The only way it makes any sense is if 5T and tofu are mafia. And a double fake claim just seems way too ridiculous to consider. Actually, FiveTouch claim really threw me for a loop. But if we consider the scum Tofu and town 5T, scum made the play without knowing 5T was DT and is trying to kill Corazon. The small exchange between me and Tofu seems like Tofu is now off script (not according to plan) if he is indeed scum. I'm still ok with my read. Atually very comfortable because I'm seeing Tofu pull idea after idea without responding to our objections. Sometimes they are really stupid ideas, too.

Oh I missed addressing the 5T part. 5T sees a 4th DT claim and he both confirms possibility of all four being town. This in a way helps confirm FirmTofu but also derails the FirmTofu agenda. Then watch FirmTofu attempt to get back on track. If I am missing anything please feel free to ask. | ||

It seems like you're assuming that Cora didn't get this PM or isn't claiming this PM wording is what he got? Peel everything back for me. Cora claimed early D2 and much much before the N2 end, so he couldn't have said that when he claimed. He didn't have phagga post to use as an example. Of course, Cora could have since then. He didn't. I don't feel like you can assume that Corazon didn't receive the same wording though. | ||

I've been pressing Tofu for pages now: See: On July 28 2013 12:18 TanGeng wrote: Let's go at the Tofu Roleclaim from a different angle: This is the FirmTofu Claim: See Why did I defend TAA with "weirdness" for so long? Now look look at FirmTofu's role PM. FirmTofu basically sees that he has a possibility of being insane. The Why did I defend TAA with "weirdness" for so long? still makes no sense. He'd have to question his own sanity first and since he got a DT check, he'd be really interested in figuring out TAA alignment first. That is not what happened. FirmTofu basically explored everybody else before finally getting to TAA. I'm having a real problem with this claim even on its own now.

Also, TG makes a lot more sense as scum considering Day 1 and how heavily he's pushing me today. I'm pushing you because I have a completed scum case against you. | ||

What is your case against kirby. Really. It's "meta" but this jrkirby is a lurky newbie and you're trying to force a meta on him? I posted my case, and you never liked it.

See getmoript's comment about jrkirby. The guy is a newbie lurker that is lynchbait. Scum team needs to keep him around to win. That's why Tofu made the huge move. Scum need you to mislynch on jrkirby. If jrkirby isn't around town wins via process of elimination. | ||

jrkirby is lurky - yes. He is also a total newbie and is completely liability for town. Yes. Basically jrkirby opens his mouth and doesn't look townie. That's right. That's not enough to mark scum for me. And don't blame him for YOUR Oatsmaster shot AND Corazon lynch. Scum? What evidence? Build a case for scummy plays. So build a fucking case. And go lighter on the weak meta arguments please. Otherwise I will bust out OMG Y U META DO YOU EVEN SCUMHUNT Only thing I have at this point is he lurks and then posts like no townie or scum would ever post, and that is a policy lynch.

That's a null. jrkirby made no pressure to force a lynch on Cora or Tofu. You had to identify whether or not the lynch was good or not. Don't call kirby scum for making you look bad.

I'm not going to let my policy lynch ruin the game for you two. But you two do need to elevate your scum-hunting game if town is to win. So I'm going to teach one fundamental scum-hunting technique as one last gift. It is the telling difference between townies scum-hunting and scums pushing scum agenda. Personal Notes: Onegu, set aside meta arguments for a moment. The reason for lurky scum meta is because these scum hunting techniques work better with more activity. JarJarDrinks, set aside setup speculation and WIFOM for this. This is a fundamental difference in behavior and unless there are some crazy crazy roles, the fundamentals always hold. Town Scum-hunting + Show Spoiler + First, I'll discuss the look and feel of real scum-hunting. You make a case, you point some fingers, and you wait for counter-arguments. If you feel like your points haven't been addressed or more convincing information pops up. You press on and you vote for lynch. Example: getmoript's TAA accusation series + Show Spoiler + Day 1 Starts http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=420356¤tpage=12#239 On July 22 2013 05:08 getmoript wrote: Also @whoever's around... What do you think of TAA completely ignoring any sort of points on JJD and barely touching on Tofu? Getmoript eventually gets into a long discussion with austin/Vivax. While it is notable that austin/Vivax is constantly defending TAA, note getmoript's reaction and logic. austin/Vivax http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=420356¤tpage=17#331 Pushing Oatsmaster over TAA.

The strength of a town scum-hunting case change with the situation and the facts.

Example: FiveTouch's Corazon claim questioning + Show Spoiler + The look of genuine scum-hunting is that it should be logical (barring intimidation by other players) and the conclusion fits to the new facts and counter-arguments. If it is a partial case, there some sense of doubt should be coming from the town player. In more advanced play, you'll also have to know what kinds of facts appeal to the particular player in question. Pushing Scum Agenda + Show Spoiler + Pushing scum agenda plays out differently, where scum will have an agenda in mind and grab at facts to fit to the desired outcome. Even if the initial argument is broken and the situation changes, scum will try to re-establish new arguments for the agenda. Sometimes, these arguments will be ridiculous, or silly, or even blatantly anti-town. And scum will ignore counter arguments, make up new reasons, or just plainly rehash the same argument to continue pushing. This is the scummy sort of tunneling. For this I give you FirmTofu's Corazon Day3 lynch sequence. + Show Spoiler + Even before the claim: On July 27 2013 20:09 FiveTouch wrote: Just one more note on Cora, and this is to Firm especially. Presumably Corazon would be claiming to save his scumbuddy, TAA. There's a couple things to note about that. 1) he's going head to head with getmoript, someone already viewed as significantly more townie than Corazon. Already the chances of winning that battle are pretty small 2) EVEN if he did win that battle, getmoript gets lynched and flips detective. But then that gives away *both* TAA and Corazon. The net of it being that even in the *best case* scenario for Corazon, he's trading 1 townie for 2 mafia. Seems terribly unlikely, no? 5T warns against the case for Corazon as scum. We start with the claim. On July 28 2013 04:04 FirmTofu wrote: Alright, I gave myself a 12:00 deadline to post this. I've only delayed it this long because I wanted to see where the votes go before my reveal. I was also hoping for the off chance that people would lynch Cora without me having to reveal. I am the Detective! I have the exact same role pm as getmoript. Night 1, I checked TAA. Result: Town Night 2, I checked Cora. Result: Town This should answer a few questions for you. Why did I defend TAA with "weirdness" for so long? Because I got a town check on him. If you have any additional questions, please ask. I'm either a naive cop or a defective cop that gets everything wrong. I'm leaning toward defective. I want to lynch Cora. 3 cops in this town? Highly unlikely. I am a DT and agenda is lynch Cora! On July 28 2013 04:17 FiveTouch wrote: So annoying doing this via phone at a party. I believe this claim because we are also a detective, we have red checks on getmo and Cora. If I were to speculate, I'd say we had 4 cops with a different sanity each. The combination of our and firm's checks means Cora is probably town though Marv 5T also claims DT; says Cora is probably town. On July 28 2013 04:22 FirmTofu wrote: Oh damn. Okay hold on, I'm going to have to think about this for a bit. Agenda derail? So far still looks like town DT claim & scum-hunting at this point. On July 28 2013 04:29 FirmTofu wrote: The problem with this theory is that Cora didn't claim detective. He claimed investigator. I'm like 100% sure Cora is scum at this point. Agenda is back! 100% sure. Also 100% superficial. (also Cora does explicitly claim Detective). On July 28 2013 04:30 FiveTouch wrote: Imo we lynch outside the claims because I believe them all. We probably die tonight but the other two cops should be able to confirm their sanities. 5T's town plan is to confirm sanities On July 28 2013 06:11 FirmTofu wrote: Well, scum is currently voting for me. It all comes down to whether JJD or kirby will vote me or them. We need a majority on either one to win this game and that means you need to vote one of them as well. I will not be voting kirby today. Remember not kirby, today. On July 28 2013 06:34 FirmTofu wrote: Instead of all of us wasting our checks... why don't we lynch Cora and see what our cop sanity is based on his flip? that way we'll know whether the two cops can find scum the following night. It's a win-win. A get information plan! That lynches Cora! On July 28 2013 06:44 FirmTofu wrote: So your whole case against me rests on the timing. Holy hypocrisy. You think the timing of your claim isn't scummy when it brought getmoript's claim and accusation of TAA into question, but when I claim as kirby is gaining votes, I'm suddenly scum? Trying to draw a parallel to Corazon claim? Here's Corazon's Claim sequence + Show Spoiler + CORA explicitly claims detective here On July 24 2013 06:21 FiveTouch wrote: Are you serious? Are you sane? (as in, cop sane) On July 24 2013 06:34 cDgCorazon wrote: Because having two sane cops in an 12 player setup is ridiculously town favored. On July 24 2013 07:02 TanGeng wrote: If town indeed has these power roles, we'll most likely be dealing with a miller or a godfather. Notice Corazon gets derailed quickly, but never reasserts his agenda. This is how a town claim works. If it meets resistance, the agenda is discarded. On July 28 2013 07:35 TanGeng wrote: It's a terrible plan. Scum kill the only useful DT remaining. This is a terrible plan. The information play is actually a terrible anti-town plan. After this Tofu's filter is filled with nothing else about Cora as scum. Do you see Tofu get derailed from the agenda? Do you see Tofu pick the agenda back up? 5T already posts some warning analysis. The case is quite flimpsy. Is it willful ignorance / scum agenda pushing? To me this feels very different from how scum-hunting and a town counterclaims works. Contrast with how Corazon's counter-claim played out. Once the possibility that there could be multiple cops was suggested, he puts his initial "You're lying reaction aside." As for my tunneling of Vivax and FirmTofu, my arguments posted days ago remain unaddressed. + Show Spoiler + FirmTofu http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=420356¤tpage=94#1880 http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=420356¤tpage=95#1885 Vivax/austinmcc in support http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=420356¤tpage=98#1960 http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=420356¤tpage=99#1962 However, this is not a fool-proof way to pick apart scum and town. Good scum players will make their agenda pushing look like town scum-hunting as much as possible. But town scum-hunting will always look like town scum-hunting. Feel free to see if you can find other conversations in this game that feels like scum agenda pushing. You two can decide whether or not this is a worthy technique, whether or not Tofu looks like he is pushing scum agenda, and whether or not you will vote my really solid scum reads, Vivax and FirmTofu. If there are 3 votes on either Vivax or FirmTofu at the deadline tomorrow, I will hammer them down. If instead, one of you still want to vote jrkirby and there are 3 or more votes on jrkirby, I promise to cast a policy lynch vote on jrkirby. And I fully expect to go into an endgame with scum victory. Basically I will provide the 4th vote on any one of jrkirby, FirmTofu, or Vivax. I also hope we don't go to no-lynch, as I would like to end this game as soon as possible. Onegu, JarJarDrinks. Balls in your court. | ||

Are you sure the argument is not WIFOM? If you say it's suicidal as scum and then use that to justify not lynching him, is it really suicidal? | ||

As long as one of you votes for jrkirby, I'm there. As for doubts about whether or not I'm serious about policy lynching my teammate at MYLO and going against my Win-Con. I'm deadly seriously about it. It will happen. | ||

Overall: I think jrkirby is town via process of elimination but is playing an absolutely disgusting game. One comment and completely lurking, again. | ||

You got called out by FiveTouch. This day's been a change for the better. Apparently voting jrkirby is probably violating the Play to Win rule, but jrkirby is really making it hard for me honor it. | ||

But it's not 2 hours before the deadline, yet. You're really early!! As you might have noticed, I am policy lynching you (for day 3 play), and at this point you will probably have to give me three great reasons not to. The other option of course is to convince both JJD and Onegu to switch to either Tofu or Vivax. I'd suggest you not waste your breath on Tofu or Vivax as they are still my scum reads. I know. What's new. It's been that way since Day 2. Seriously. Good luck! | ||

So that austinmcc & Tofu exchange on page 60 was genuine town!? I'm shocked. Will have to take note that Tofu listens to austin and practically nobody else. Those day 3 plays. ![]() After that, I still like Tofu & Vivax for scum pair even though I know it's JJD & Onegu. JarJar had this really weird switch from jrkirby to Corazon at the end of Day 3 that raised some flags for me, but I went with the main read. | ||

@Cora Don't investigate yourself. @Vivax Was coming around to your day 4 play, but you were natural ally to Tofu. | ||
