What's that mean, by the way? Tried googling but didn't really get anything that fit all the contexts you use it in.

Geript that's terrible. Personally I have a 0% win rate as scum because as an upstanding citizen I help town as much as possible.

Backtrack harder, Deus.
Scum can happily put themselves in the center of attention, Hzflank in the previous game is a good example. He was a very vocal scum who made a case on a townie day one, and the only thing that thwarted him was an accidentally godlike serial killer shot (hi nightcat)
filtering Holy for a sec to respond to stim, atm he's null, will see if anything sways me.

I totally took this as a BroodWar Terran QQ.

On topic: I am super new to mafia (first ever game) and I think coming up with something to say is super hard. I hope this is just a beginning thing. Trying not to be a hated lurker is kind-of hard.

+I almost edited one of my posts good thing I read the rules xD.

infii did not want to lynch anyone night 1 and he is "neutral." And the neutrality seems to me he does not want to be a lurker but he does not want to draw attention to himself so I will.

the thing nightcat, is that if someone is TOO SCUMMY TO ACTUALLY BE SCUM
they're probably scum.
it's just as easy to be crazy scum as it is to be crazy town, yeah?

Please also refer to my previous point that as you can see he is dragging our discussion on and on about him and if he is in fact town it has wasted a whole day of discussion because of it and thus he is a good lynch either way.

Humph. Well if reps flips red I will be cool. If he flips green, know this: I have stated earlier that my own train of thought looked just like reps if not worse first game. It was because I 100% wanted to survive, rather than hunt scum- because I was tracker, and felt that tracking night actions would make me better prepared to successfully scumhunt.

See this; it hasn't happened yet, but I already feel that if reps flips green holy flare and deus x machina look scummier. Why?

Simple. Reps has given inclination toward being an ideal scum mislynch target.

That being said he hasn't helped things one bit. But I still fosftp for future reference, and yet here is my vote as I agree, we need to lynch.

I am fully aware that I will look scummy right with them if he flips town, because I'll look all knowing and distancing myself from mislynch. I am aware of this fact and still post it. So shouldn't affect your votes!

votes reps

I just remembered reps actually voted for infii and questioned him.
Which means they are almost certainly not BOTH mafia.
Infii could still be mafia and voting scam to not seem like he's mafia bandwagoning. I guess we'll see what he says about criticism of his reasoning.

I'm going to tell you a possible scenario and I want to see what you think about it.

Umasi, gotard and nightcat99 as mafia and sc_am as a neutral (don't know about role he may just be survivor or sk)

assume we're a scum team together, what would we get out of tag teaming like you said we did? Is there any reason we would build such a strong connection?
(yeah, it's wifom, the thoughts not even occuring to you, and since I brought up you should just ignore it I guess.)
(btw, the town motivation for no lynching instead of mis lynching is the fact that we don't kill a townie.)

Yes I have read flare's extremely long post. Call me selfish but I wish he would of focused on only a couple people. He has got great analysis and it seems like he wasted some time on smaller suspects (like himself lol). I think he has got some really solid info on u M asi, Gotard, and Night. Ill do my part by researching them too. On a side note, I think it is best to focus on a couple key individuals. Analyzing their associations is great if it helps pin that individual as scum, but otherwise I don't think it is very useful. I am trying not to get bogged down by looking at everyone of suspect all at once. Ill post in detail on scum reads later tonight.

@Umasi: still a dick move to switch vote and afk.

Drop infi, that's all I'm going to say.

yeah, you can feel free to call me tsunami. Reading usami all the time is like :< do you guys just not spell goods? kind of thing.
who started that anyway? calling me usami, that is.

as for focusing on gotard, the easiest way to prove my innocence is to find and lynch scum, so when I read gotard and was like "he's actually scummy" it was reasonable to state my thoughts on him/make a pseudo case.
Still want scam dead :<

FUCK. I was at the card shop for a magic sealed event and my phone died, which is why I couldn't switch when we went for gotard. Sorry guys, yes that looks scummy as hell.

As for why I stayed on Umasi earlier--we had 3? votes for him and there was no real consensus, I just didn't switch bc it to seemed silly to just keep throwing around the vote until we had decided who to knock out....is what it is, not much else I can say. Obviously you all will still be suspicious, not much else I can do besides playing well from here on out anyway....I'll go back through again and read the last pages, see what happened

I do keep track of those sort of things. I've been keeping up on the thread and if you notice, I was posting in the morning just before so I had read up

Where does this idea that I haven't posted any reads come from? I was actually the one first made a real case for suspicion against Gotard, and I was very vocal on my opinions of Usami. I've posted plenty of my own reads.

At any rate, last night kind of fucked up what I thought again.
Stim are confirmed town

Slam is playing a really strong town game--that being said- why has he not been lynched? Seems like he would have been a great target for mafia-he would be playing a wild joker game, but he seems like that sort of guy..he is the best and mosts experienced player here.just something worth thinking about

That leaves Deus and Umasi

Still a little suspicious of Umasi--his play to go after scam may have been an attempt to put his name in the clear by getting rid of a lurker and also spearheading a charge to kill a fellow mafia member.

Dues--I have a decent townread on him

Nightcat--he may be town, but he is not confirmed not-scum either, but there are a number of important possibilities to consider- namely Mafia tried to kill jaded salesman first night, or someone who was saved by the doctor the first night. They would know that their kill was blocked and there IS a serial killer- fact is, he is still my strongest scum read

Look at this post again+ Show Spoiler +
Not only completely wrong, but the reasoning is exceptionally weak. 1 liners and no quotes about his scum reads--it is more of a post because he has to and to shift suspicion than anything else.

Also, an "if I die" post? He's clearly trying to play up the possibility of his being murdered. Why? Everybody has the chance, why make such a big deal of it? To associate himself with town as much as possible

+ Show Spoiler +
+ Show Spoiler +

Above, he tries the very low-profile defense of Gotard. First states he is pretty sure that he's town, then questions why everyone is voting for him. Just enough to call into question the vote against Gotard and try to help Gotard's defense without drawing signifcant attention to himself. He doesn't join on the suspicion of Gotard until the last minute, when it becomes apparent that Gotard is going to be lynched.


Also important to note is that his posts are almost entirely fluff. Most are 1 or 2 liners making some minor comment to show his presence in the thread (or to ask slam for an opinion, which he does a lot of ) without drawing attention. He's largely failed to level significant accusations (he's only posted them twice?), and the one's he has made he has not gone after aggressively. He posts them and then lets it go, leading me to believe that once again, he was posting them to blend in, not to actually make strong cases.





Probably nothing, but "another source"---that's a pretty confident statement
