Better this way than having the game ruined by modkills, I suppose.

Are the non-newbie games as bad when it comes to signing up and then not actually playing?

If town is lying why would we want to lynch them? Like I said, you probably won't catch scum lying. Lying won't really tell you much. Lurkers > Liars.


Obviously lynching confirmed town because of a lie would be silly, but what about someone most have a weak scum read (or even null) on who's caught lying? Still prefer a lurker lynch over him?

While we're on the topic of lurking, do you think there's any real difference between lurking and posting but being useless? Would you (policy) lynch someone who posts but doesn't have any real content?

Right? Odd. Backtrackin a bit for Policy, even if you wanted to lynch lurkers, liars, and those who post pointless stuff, should there be a level at which the lynch begins. For example yalls version of Lurking could be completely different from each other, where one might thinking lurking is more than 12 hours another might think a day.... We should establish some context, As far as lying, in any sense what if they are lying because they are unsure about you? Wouldnt that make you both the suspects vs just the person that lied, i think depending on the question there should be a level limit there, and those who post pointless stuff, well if you're dodging a question, you're dodging a question, enough said.

From what I have seen any longer than 8 hours is definitely pushing it.


Wow, that's harsh. I guess you don't like sleeping in very much?-)

Personally, I think any hard deadline is a bit pointless and likely leads to zero content "I'm still here!" posts. In fact, I don't care so much at all about the post counts, it's the amount of content that really matters.

Oh, that's interesting, I'd like to hear your reasoning.

Personally, I'm pretty much null on everyone but slightly wary of iVLosK! - while his "policy" about posting obvious stuff indeed makes a bit of sense in late game it felt like he was trying to stifle what little conversation we were trying to get going at that point, which isn't very pro-town. I have a tendency of misreading players like him though, so I have to tread carefully here.

If you have a weak scum read on someone and they lie, well that might be evidence against them. I would try to understand the intentions behind the lie. Not crazy about the lynch liars policy.

I don't know how to define lurking, but people who are being useless are equally as bad as lurkers. In fact, in some situations, I think spammers can be more detrimental to town than lurkers. I equate non-contribution to scum. I am glad you brought this up. I was thinking about this a lot in my last game.

Yeah lynch all liars and no lurking! And anything else that sounds pro-town! C'mon guys. No fucking duh. I have a policy of lynching people who say stupid, obvious shit. What do you think of them apples, flare, deus, and LM?


Well this is a newb game. Hopefully players can read some of the initial policy and learn what not to do. Lynching people who say stupid stuff got me into a lot of shit my last game. That being said, I am all for aggressive play and doing whatever it takes to weed out scum.


Actually it was lynching the spammer- many of the things I said were trying to express my opinions, spamming was me trying to dick around. I promise not to do that anymore except maybe in spoilers if I can't help it.

Therefore I am really glad you laid this out. There may be people like me who just get the juices flowing and go nuts, they will disregard you until they are the scummy one tunneling the wrong guy at Lylo- then they will have to fight not to become stimaddict 2.0, (sorry bout that but u know its true ing one) so like I say- rock and a hard place with "don't spam don't lurk" for me- so gimme a little grace and I will try to help out. For now, I have this:
Ivlosk! - town, he is bamcis for lookin so, especially so early, therefore keep an eye out for even more badass scum play later if I am wrong (and I am wrong often...)
HolyFlare- kinda early. I'm null, in fact, I'm null on everyone but ivlosk! and myself. It's pretty early guys.

"Speak up!" -Seige Tank Driver (selected, Starcraft 2)

Fellows, pleeeze!!


Okay, sounds good. Biggest scum reads so far, Xzavier and reps. Lol at reps if he becomes a day 1 lynch again. Why am I suspicious? Well, they are lurking, and as I previously mentioned, lurking will not be tolerated. Pretty much neutral on everyone. Although, I am leaning slightly town on JAT.

Careful of posting pseudo lurker lists... Look. That is the easies thing for scum to do to try and look town, 1, and 2, if we have vigs, they can shoot into lurkers and we lynch other lurkers till there are none. So it is established that you can't lurk and get by this game. Stating their scumminess other than to explain a vote on them is now irrelevant, lets stick to discussion about actives. Then, before the deadline (close as you can get) vote for a lurker or someone you find scummy- who may have more of a chance turning out to be scum than someone who wanted blue or irl'ed or whatever causes people to do this stuff.


By the way, we don't have vigs. Read the game setup. Your point is valid though, discussing lurkers (especially this early) is pretty pointless.

Check my reads.

Why? You are suspicious?


Okay, I see your track record on figuring out first posts isn't exactly stellar :D

I want to see people talk about each other, because that makes the game much easier to figure out. I consider his first post pretty much null from a completely new player.

On that matter, my reads so far: slightly town on DeusXmachina and Alakaslam, null on the rest.

Btw. I would like it very much if we could agree on not lying if it isn't absolutely necessary for some reason. If a VT claims cop to save himself I will get mad. Worst case we lynch a so called redcheck who flips town and kill the fake cop (also town) afterwards.
Probably wastes 2 cycles of discussion and we have 2 mislynches.
Never do that.

And discrediting a player's statements can be a good thing to do. (Eg HolyFlare being scum- haven't ruled that out). If the statement hasn't got merit it should be discredited, right?

Disclaimer: do I agree with iVLosk? Possibly. I need to weigh it all.


Why are you softly defending (and buddying up to) another player again? Didn't you learn from what happened in the last game with Umasi? Please keep an open mind, so far anyone in this game could be scum.

I still think you're town though. Who's your current best scum read?

My Suspicious list.
1. justanothertownie He seems to be posting enough to stay under the radar. Posts like this "I'm around." make the suspicion flair.

2.Squibbles Makes the IRL excuse. Then says he reads the messages all day long but does not post.

People I am not suspicious of.
DeusX super agressive as a townie last game XLV and is playing somewhat the same.


And in your opinion, is Deus playing to this meta he's established?


My burning question is, why aren't you playing like you did in XLII? I remember you being far more aggressive and attacking people, now you seem to be content to just drop remarks from the sidelines...

I have a question, sir. Why are you pushing these 2 while completely ignoring Xzavier who didn't post anything at all?


Because it's utterly useless to pressure someone who isn't participating in the game and will be modkilled/replaced? Now if he does a last minute post/vote he can be sure I shall dump my righteous fury on him, but until then I'd rather concentrate on those who I can actually pressure into talking.

I'd like to get more reads from almost everyone, please.

My current top scum suspects, in no particular order:
Squibbles - is participating in the game, but hasn't really produced any content nor reads
iVLosK! - it seems to me that his play is different from last time, but that's weak so I'm prepared to watch him for now
reps)squishy - although he finally gave some reads that only happened after being pressured so I'm still suspicious

Had a relatively strong town read on Holyflare, but his useless (and very non-committal) vote on Xzavier makes me a little worried I might be misreading.

I mean his posts are horrible but I don't think they are alignment indicative. He should definitely post some more though.

You are right about Squibbles. No reads as of yet.


I obsed reps' last game before this and yes, there are similarities. He was town in that one and mislynched D1 for playing pretty much like this. That's why I'm cutting him some slack, he's such obvious lynchbait. However, that kind of meta makes it very easy to hide as scum, so I will keep him on my list of people to watch closely for now.

In other news: It's very worrying that we're only a few hours from lynch and there are no real wagons, or even scum reads from most of the players. If you fit either of the descriptions above, please do something about fixing that.

As a placeholder.

However the squibbles voting is intriguing. It is a policy lynch based on what may be IRL circumstances. Is there actually something wrong with his posting, other than the lack of it?

If not, may want to reconsider...
... As according to his own deadlines, he will likely be modkilled. It is 9:15 on the west coast.

Any better reasons though? As the same goes for Xzavier... So if squib is preferable guess what


When I dropped my vote on Squibbles I was fully expecting him to speak up before the deadline as he had said he's reading the thread during EU daytime. Now that it looks like he might be modkilled/replaced just like Xzavier I'm fully prepared to switch.

Indeed, iVLosK! Looks bad after reading up on HolyFlare, but are there enough reasons to voteswitch? Shall he defense hisself?


I'm fully prepared to switch to iVLosK! - as I've stated he seems to be suspiciously timid compared to his style in XLII and the point about not bringing much content that Holyflare brings up has merit.

Also, now that you're here, can I have a few reads from you?

I will definitely second this.

If I am right in my suspicions, IVLosk should be first lynch. If I am wrong we really shouldn't lynch any of them ofc.


So much in agreement. I have a better scum read on iVLosK! than Squibbles, so I'm going to switch. Squibbles seems to be headed to modkill/replace territory anyway.

This game is made of fail. (Not aimed at the hosts; more about the general level of lurkiness, afking and such.)

Also, nice last minute switcharoo to a completely useless lynch that ended up being town.

I thought he wasn't as antagonistic as I would expect according to the description of others about his play. He also didn't defend himself at all...

It's important to note that JAT's read on me is based on the fact that he's HEARD (though, he hasn't gone and read) that I am a bigger dick than this and the fact that I was offline while you guys put together that little 1 hour wagon on me.


Not just that but his overall play has been pretty much to follow the thread sentiment and bandwagon, he's either very new to the game or scum (or both). Hasn't given any reads either, not even when directly asked to, so he's on the list of scummy people.

I was so happy that Alakaslam wasn't being... Alakaslam earlier, but it seems he devolved back to himself

Do you realize how much I hate it that instead of reading what you want to say in less than half a minute I have to pause my music, watch some shitty video for a few minutes, then try to guess if you actually were trying to say something with it or if it was just spam?

So we got 2 confirmed townies already. This game will be easy.

Please take a very careful look at him and compare his play to NMM XLII. Either he's town trolling very hard (why would he do that?) or scum trying to play some weird mind games.

OmniEulogy, could you explain your town read on JAT? If I didn't think he's really inexperienced I'd call him scum for failing to bring any reads and just sheeping others' opinions.

Your both votes were sheeping me and you still haven't given any scum reads, even after I asked you. There's very little in your filter that's actual new content not already stated by someone at that point. Would you mind giving me a read now so I can maybe feel a bit better about you?

To be honest, since there's probably just 2 scum and I have far scummier targets I don't really think you're scum, but it never hurts to be a little paranoid.

Why do you think Deus and slam did what they did if iVLosk is town to you?


This is very much the key question.

If Alakaslam is scum, it's almost certain that iVLosK! is scum also, otherwise his last minute vote switch makes no sense whatsoever. Why would he switch from one townie to another just to make himself look bad? Even more so, why would he switch from a townie he knows to be reasonably strong player to another who's 0-poster?

If Deus is scum and truly believed it was majority lynch then iVLosK! could be town.

If both Alakaslam and Deus are scum their play just plain makes no sense.

If both Alakaslam and Deus are town my brain will explode from how stupid play that was, especially from Alakaslam.

If we take it at face value, Deus didn't think LosK was scum and panicked, Slam was sheeping him both onto the LosK lynch and Xzavier one I believe as there isn't much of a reason given by Slam. Deus at least said "I don't think LosK is scum" or something to that effect.

The biggest issue I have with LosK being scum and either Deus / Slam being his scum buddy in this scenario is why would you bus your scum buddy D1 for absolutely no reason? I don't think a scum vote on LosK makes much sense either if LosK is scum.


But why would Alakaslam sheep such a horrible vote? I could accept Deus' explanation that he thought it was majority lynch, but I can't think of any reason for Alakaslam's vote besides the one I proposed above.

Maybe that was an attempt to distance from the scumbuddy, vote him and then switch to the counterwagon. Which kind of failed when a counterwagon didn't appear. Would that make sense? Or just plain bus when it seemed like he'd be the only real candidate (the wagon formed relatively close to the deadline after all).

Hi I'm back

Read Holyflare's filter

But basically I need to help convince town we aren't scum team because I went and was an idiot and got wishy washy

The juices flow

Ok so I voted vlosk because he hasn't been explicitly helpful, and then I remembered my meta impression of him was fallacious...

Then I get the juices of reservation flowing and lo and behold deus is reserved too and I think to myself "I was reps hammer last time and in the event iVLosk is messing around to later be bamcis town he would be a great loss as a mislynch crap crap what we do now" and he voted Xzavier and I remembered HolyFlare and was like "oh yeah" and I was in hurry like 5 minutes from deadline so I just did it was not thinking straight and boom.

So scummy like "ok let's bus vlosk and then not do it lol and since I think he is so bamcis I should just not make sense" or I don't even know what my scum motive for that mistake is.


Wow, that's weak. "He's messing around to later be awesome" is your reason for doing that utterly horrible voteswitch?

So who would you lynch today?

Yeah. Principle was "I refuse to lynch town and we said we would lynch lurkers and also it feels like I am being svengali'd to vote iVLosK! somehow". In other words, I was practically going nuts, is it impossible to read the intense atmosphere at the time?

And lol- good point, but yes my read is idunno, leaning town. I am saying if he thinks it's scum it's my fault anyway, so being wrong is not scummy like I wish it was. Then anyone who accused me would be scum and I'd win every town game :D


I don't really see how it was that intense compared to many other lynches that have gone around in games you've been in.

Could you point out what changed your opinion on iVLosK! so drastically from "I could lynch him" to "he's definitely town, so I'll rather random lynch a 0-poster"? You must have been quite sure that he's town to consider a 0-poster lynch a better option at 2/9 odds of hitting scum.

Unfortunately that works perfectly as an excuse a scum could make. It really doesn't help your case that you're being wishy washy about your reads (just check what you gave as a "read" on Omni above). So please tell us who's your top lynch candidate and make it at least somewhat convincing.

Deus' case on JAT is kind of OMGUS, but seems like a town reaction, if he was scum I'd expect him to push Alakaslam since he's obviously much more likely lynch than JAT.

To be honest I'm not so sure I can read him right now. Trying to find a game where he was scum for style comparison. He largely gives me a scummy vibe, seeing how he's not producing any real reads and not being really helpful to figuring the game out, but that kinda fits the way he's played as town before so I'm somewhat torn. Leaning scum but uncertain is the best I can do right now on him.

I can't get a read on Alakaslam. He's been town in all previous games, so no meta to compare. The Xzavier vote shenigans make him look bad but that's basically all I can get on him.

An interesting point to think about: The only player to give a town read on Deus is iVLosK!.

Going to go back and re-read some filters.

Wait, what the heck. Your read on Deus is changing so fast I can't even keep track of it. Why did your opinion on him change to town after you made your case on him? Didn't see any reasoning with your unvote.

My top scum read ended up being the only one who was resisting the lynch besides Deus himself, and Alakaslam started looking more town to me. Sadly Slam's latest uselessness made him look less town again so I feel this lynch is a bit unsafe, I'd far prefer lynching iVLosK! who still hasn't really contributed much to the scum hunt at all.

I don't think I can do a full case in the time remaining before lynch, but mainly my points are his reluctance to hunt scum, the lack of reads (the only strong read he's given so far is his case against me, which is a very weak case in my eyes) and just generally being useless. Also avoiding taking a stance on the pressing issue of Slam vs Deus is incriminating.

If you cannot be sold then vote no-lynch. You will dig your own grave if you vote me. If you are town, you are in the unique undesirable position of being the one to lose the game. Unvote me.


How would him voting no-lynch make any sense whatsoever in this situation?

I don't really see how Deus/Slam being town would change the fact that I'd expect a town player in his situation to be probing and pushing others to figure out who's town and who's scum.

That's not reserved play. That's I don't give a fuck play. You are reserved. You have done nothing major that sets you apart from other players.


wait what's the difference between JAT and LosK in the "I don't give a fuck" category?


iV draws attention to himself because of his bold "I don't care what you guys think", I am going to be a dick, You will get reads from me when I want to give you reads style. He sticks out like a sore thumb. JAT tries to make it look like he cares. He plays substantially more reserved, and under the radar. Everything he does could be interpreted at an attempt to blend in.


iVLosK!'s antagonistic style is not alignment indicative, he practically has to play that way as either alignment since he's shown he's like that as town, otherwise he'd just get instantly lynched.

What happened between these posts, Lone?


My top scum read ended up being the only one who was resisting the lynch besides Deus himself, and Alakaslam started looking more town to me. Sadly Slam's latest uselessness made him look less town again so I feel this lynch is a bit unsafe, I'd far prefer lynching iVLosK! who still hasn't really contributed much to the scum hunt at all.

I see. Makes sense somehow. Could you make a case on iVLosk then?


I don't think I can do a full case in the time remaining before lynch, but mainly my points are his reluctance to hunt scum, the lack of reads (the only strong read he's given so far is his case against me, which is a very weak case in my eyes) and just generally being useless. Also avoiding taking a stance on the pressing issue of Slam vs Deus is incriminating.

You are right about his reserved play but if he is town then it is understandable if he thinks slam/deus are town don't you think?


That's not reserved play. That's I don't give a fuck play. You are reserved. You have done nothing major that sets you apart from other players.


wait what's the difference between JAT and LosK in the "I don't give a fuck" category?


iV draws attention to himself because of his bold "I don't care what you guys think", I am going to be a dick, You will get reads from me when I want to give you reads style. He sticks out like a sore thumb. JAT tries to make it look like he cares. He plays substantially more reserved, and under the radar. Everything he does could be interpreted at an attempt to blend in.


iVLosK!'s antagonistic style is not alignment indicative, he practically has to play that way as either alignment since he's shown he's like that as town, otherwise he'd just get instantly lynched.


Like we talked about before meta is not a solid basis for analysis in newbie games. He doesn't have to play that way. Look at the consequences of his actions! Everyone is upset over the way he acts. He gets a lot of attention because of it. Scum wouldn't do that. They would draw attention to themselves in that way.


How can you be so sure he's town? I could agree with "null" or "leaning town" based on that if you truly believe it but the way you defend him makes it look like you have a very strong town read on him, what's that based on?

You have no idea how stressed I was about whether my snap read was right or wrong...

My snap read on the Alakaslam lynch was pretty much based on Deus proving himself to be far too towny to be viable lynch at that moment. His absolute refusal to switch to Slam to save himself screamed "either both are scum or Deus is town" to me, which meant that vote on Slam was the only correct choice.

More comments later, gotta eat breakfast and get to work...

D1 was just painful, so many afkers getting modkilled/replaced. I almost lost motivation and stopped playing after that.

Some notes (all of this is up to when I got NK'd, didn't pay 110% attention after that):

Omni played a pretty good D2, I wasn't really suspicious of him at all until seeing the post where he said Slam would also be okay lynch but he still preferred Deus, that seemed like possibly trying to distance from a potential lynch.

JAT I suspected pretty badly during D1 for being so sheepy and avoiding giving reads, but his game picked up during D2 and I would definitely not have agreed to lynch him over Deus/Slam/iVLosK!.

Deus was both town MVP (for getting Slam lynched) and at the same time very distracting with his crazy paranoia and conspiracy theories. Special award for being TEH TUNNELMASTER :D

iVLosK! was just so very not pro-town with the non-participation and withholding reads. The overall feeling was that of someone not very interested in the game or scum (who aren't generally all that interested in hunting scum).

Alakaslam was being very Alakaslam and to be honest, that really works good when you're scum. I was so extremely frustrated at not being able to read you at all. Would've been interesting to see how the game would have gone without the voting shenigans.

Holyflare was the towniest town of them all to me, I don't think I had him marked as anything but null/town at any point during the game.



Had I survived the night I'd have been pushing suspicion on Omni and iVLosK!, I was actually intending to make a "in case I die" post saying so but missed the deadline by about half an hour.

Overall, very fun game even though a bit frustrating at times and quite stressful (just read my reaction to Slam flip). I especially enjoyed being for once able to look so town that I didn't need to really defend myself.
