Hi! I'm finally back in thread! I'll be here with the sole purpose of catching up so you can count on some substantive posts soon. I only got to the 20s while I was at school/work reading on my phone.

Since rayn has already taken the liberty of addressing our house members, I won't bother to discuss that. As I continue reading, I would like to direct attention to Afrocales' first post. If anyone is around, please analyze it and tell me what you think of it. I'd like to bounce some ideas off of people about what it means.

The whole point is to see what other people think of it, then post what I think about it. I didn't realize there was an Acro wagon. You are also making the assumption that I find Acro scummy. My post does not necessitate that at all.

Firm, why are you drawing attention to that post if it presumably does not make Acro scummy to you? Does it make him look town?

You will see in a moment. Can you look over the post for me and see if you see anything that stands out to you?

You people are useless. Alright, I do it myself.

Here is the post for reference.

Here is Yamato's opening scum post in Sicilian Mafia Style game. Yes, I know these are two different people, but this is still relevant.
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=414884&currentpage=11#215

Here are Ver's thoughts on Yamato's first post:

Yamato77 is almost certainly mafia based off of his first post here. I’d vote him in heartbeat. This is the quintessential mafia post. Definitely my #1 find. I didn’t even have to read any other posts by him. Remember point 1 about mafia having a hard time entering the thread? I’ve snagged many many people from intuition judging from only their first post of the game. This is confirmed from a brief glance at his posts in Personality Mafia 2 where he was an unabashed townie making strong posts and not holding back. This post here is completely the opposite. He’s holding back, not caring, not pressing as hard as he should be. Can you feeeeeel the apathy? Does he really care about the town’s best interests?

Do you see the similarity?

Afrocales' post looks very constructed and deliberate. He holds back by soft-accuses Oats instead of pushing him like he should be. The apathy is in plain sight for everyone to see. He is just trying to establish thread presence and likability(w/ his RP) without actually scumhunting in the slightest.

We have scum in our sights, people.

I'd just like to say that I formed this opinion independent of any case on Afro currently. I'm still not done reading the thread because I'm cataloging my thoughts(for myself) on most of the posts.

Acro's first post felt way more constructed. Like not even close to being natural cause he was Roleplaying. So I dont think its alignment indicative.

So you think the fact that it was more constructed makes it non-alignment indicative? Wouldn't scum be more worried about the content of their posts than town? Why would constructed flavor not be alignment indicative?

1) You are lynching me based on my activity. I have great potential to be useful in the coming days, whereas there are plenty of people in this town that will continue being useless.
2) Acro is a far better lynch today. I don't know where the votes stand right now, but Acro has been scummy all game. If I had to redirect my lynch to any one person, it'd be him.

Not going to bother to defend myself anymore. It looks like I'm already dead. I'll leave it up to the active lords to decide my fate. I'm extremely sorry about my lack of activity. Something came up IRL and I had to devote quite a bit of time to it today. I expected to be able to get back to the thread earlier, but alas, it was not to be.

When I die, I'd like for town to remember my reads. I have quite a few null, so I won't include them on the list. Acro should be lynched tomorrow barring a completely brainless town. If you want a town leader, follow rayn, he's on the right track.
My Strongest Reads:
Town:
Rayn
Oats

Scum:
Afro
Clarity

Not going to post my other reads because they may not be correct. I am extremely sure about the ones I have listed. Less sure about Clarity, but still.

So much shining man.

14 minutes to lynch, FT explain clarity. Thats probably one of the most contentious lynches.

It's based on meta. I'll try to type up everything I've got real quick. Lemme see if I can squeeze it in.

Town Clarity is someone who has a very confident Day 1. He pressures people, attacks with authority, and backs off only when he is confident that the player he is attacking is not scum. Clarity displayed NONE of that during day 1. Clarity played rather passive and although he was relatively active, his accusations were a lot less characteristic of his town play.

GL town. Please, please, please, please read my filter. Dead town filters are one of town's greatest assets. Also, remember to read the filter of whomever gets NK'd. Very, very useful.

Lame that I get killed for inactivity when there are so many worse in-actives than me that would be terrible at LYLO. I'll read up the thread and find out who started the wagon on me. You guys should look into that as well.
