Yes WoS has been the towniest town since D3.
Vayne's play is VERY unlikely to come form mafia!Vayne. He works differently as mafia. I just read Noir's obs QT and Vayne describes his town!meta very accurately there. That's the easiest way to read him.

At this point though, I have three options. CC/VA/WoS.

So if it ain't cc, it's one of the other two, regardless of townie play.

I also maintain that, whether he's played townie or scummily, those posts on oats come from the mafia mindset. Cheese has his own mafia mindset post on oats though and now it can only be one person.

No it doesn't.
"I don't find the "convincing others" part to be very fun or interesting. I just like seeing if what I am doing is correct. "

Whether or not you think this is wise it's a perfect summary of how Vayne plays as town. Unless he has changed his meta a full 180 this is town!Vayne without any doubt.

Vayne's reaction to Oats confirmation would be a scumtell for most of the people playing mafia, but not to him. He cares more about if he is right or not compared to who is winning or who gets lynched.

Ya, those posts come from mafia mindset. As far as meta, VA himself seems to love claiming that he has none/changes it/can't be read/etc. etc. You believe that all to be crap? (full disclosure, I do, but at the very least he claims to muddy the waters on his town style)

I already addressed this. It's not about right or wrong on the read. There are two ways to respond to being wrong.
  • I can't believe I was wrong on my read. Oats's PLAY has been scummy, so I cannot believe he would play like this as town.
  • I can't believe I was wrong on my read. Koshi you're dumb for checking oats.
We just avoided a mislynch probably. EVEN IF HE THINKS OATS SUPER SCUMMY, the townie response to being wrong is "Wow, I hate oats right now for playing so scummy as town, cannot believe he's town, but boy howdy thank you Koshi for stopping a mislynch." The scummy response is "WoW, I hate oats right now for playing so scummy as town and Koshi I cannot believe you burned your check on oats, he was probably going to bulletproof as scum, maybe you're wrong, you're probably wrong."

The townie response attacks oats's play, because oats's perceived poor play made him look scummy. The scummy response attacks the cop for taking a "bad shot," and figures out reasons why Koshi was dumb and his check might be wrong.

VA did the scummy response and only like 20-30 minutes later did he finally utter the townie "can't believe oats was town while playing that way."

VA may really want to be right, but he can be wrong and attack oats or attack koshi. His posts indicate he almost blamed koshi for his own wrong read on oats - bad target, oats might still be scum.

why do you preach about being wrong on reads and then say im your top scumread?

die already so I can stop reading this shitty trash
Because I'm town and I know townies make mistakes. Everyone here who is town has made them, and been wrong about reads this game.

So unless you're going to tell me that all townies are always correct in all reads, then it has to be possible that I've misread you. Enough people have suspicion on pandain that he's not the most shining townie ever. Maybe he ain't town at all. I find it very very unlikely, but it's there.


ok then you misread me end of story. You don't even have a read on me, just trying to hang onto that oats thing which was me reading the OP wrong. if that's the best you got as a town member then I really hope we never have to play town together again after this and nuclear. you are always fucking play for scum!
That wasn't you reading the OP wrong.

You said oats was probably bulletproofed last night as scum. That's not an OP thing, that's a wrong view of gamestate.

You said you were the mislynch of choice yesterday. That's not an OP thing, that's a wrong view of the gamestate both N3 AND D4, because you were third in votes.

You said oats was a bad shot. Nothing to do with the OP.

Your misreading of the bullet refund WAS the OP. But your reaction to Oats being confirmed has nothing to do with the OP.


so your whole case rests on the fact that I am "misreading" the game state when i am much more likely to do that as town then scum. Case closed you're garbage thanks for proving me town.
Nope. Not at all. You're ANGRY that koshi would confirm oats. Which is a good thing for town. You're upset and trying to wiggle out of something that was positive for town, with reasoning that doesn't cut it.


and I already explained that, I hate being wrong because I was 100% sure oats was scum due to how he was playing, but you are trying to play it off as some big thing. and that is why you are scum.
There's a townie way to hate being wrong. There's a scummy way to hate being wrong.

Your first reaction was the scummy one. Koshi you took a bad shot, oats was a great bulletproof target, etc. etc. Only after a while do you have the townie reaction "I can't believe oats is doing this as town."



and for some reason you don't understand that that is completely subjective. god you are an idiot. really hope you get flipped tonight


this game is going in circles at this point

that's not a real scumread austin, it's just your subjective view on something. it's bad. we already went over this

So why does he do that as mafia?
Is it more likely that he wants to claim scum rather than that he cannot believe Oats was town and was angry because of it?

Which is more likely?

Why does he do that as mafia? Cuz he wants to respond to the check and possibly undermine it, still get oats lynched. Or just because he wants to respond, feels like he should post about this, and makes a scummy post. Mafia make scummy posts, it happens.

It's not about oats being townie and him being angry. It's about oats being townie and him being angry AT SOMETHING. The something he's angry at is important. People who blame the cop for checking, and do so based on misrepresenting how things probably play out (oats prime bulletproof target as mafia), are more likely to be mafia.

so hard not to troll at this point, it has nothing to do with the game. it'd be like if austin was eating chocolate ice cream instead of vanilla ice cream after the lynch and I find chooclate inherently more scummy then vanilla. completely asinine and makes it unstoppable for me to give austin a townread between things like this and refusing to read pandain

Ehhhhh
I'm not 100% sure on Vayne (mostly because my recent townread is based on some mind-meld town POV stuff, and every other time I've based reads on like one post this game I've been wrong), but I don't necessarily see how that's a scum reaction.

I'd be WAY more careful as scum to let my anger over losing a mislynch target spill into the thread. Like.,...why would you not fake the joy or go for the townie reaction here?
I 100% would.

Yaya. 9/10 dentists agree.

No stats, but it worked with ange in ... rock band mini. She reacted in a slightly wonky way to a screwed up claim about 5 minutes before we lynched a mason, and the way she did it showed she wasn't actually thinking about whether the claim was legit or not. That's the only time I can think of that a particular reaction has felt mafia mindset-y to me. I won't claim that 1/1 is equivalent to it being correct all ova da place.

I get this, rayn is saying the same thing, "Why would he do that?"

It boils down to the options:

A townie had the scummy reaction and attacked the cop for stopping a mislynch, trying to undermine the veracity of the check.

OR

A mafia player posted a scummy post.

Sometimes they slip, sometimes they post too quick, I know I've posted stuff as mafia and gone OH NO NO NO. Other people have outed themselves as mafia through single posts, it DOES happen. And most of the time, if someone accidentally slips, it's going to be when a plan goes awry, something mafia didn't expect suddenly pops up and they react to it.

If you were a matador, and the players alive in this game were all part-bull part-robot beasts (are part-robot animals cyborgs?), probably the result of some sort of scientific experimentation, perhaps a government program in an early phase before looking towards human cyborg soldiers:

(1) which player would be the most robotic, perhaps with just a shred of bullmanity remaining?
(2) which player has the most original bull, and has barely been robotified at all?
(3) which player is the most dangerous bull, the one you know you have to keep in front of you or you'll be gored?
(4) how do you subdue the robot bulls?

feel free to answer later if you're headed home. but please do answer

When people were talking about his "reads post" that apparently never existed in the first place, this was all Austin had to say.
