This game needs some HYPE.
Marv is failing his job as a co-host to hype up this game. All he's good for is creating Anti-hype.

is he a Palmar smurf, you think? i honestly thought they were the same person up until yesterday. i hope that's inoffensive for either party - i just have trouble focusing on more than 2 letters or so at a time.

I believe that accusation could be offensive for both parties. But tell me Mr. Bereft, Why are you trying to move suspicion off of the Oatsmaster?

arrested development quotes aside -- your throwing darts at the player board didn't seem worth addressing, especially since you've picked someone who's probably going to be at school or work for the next 10 hours.

why oatsmaster? do you like picking individuals who aren't around to defend themselves, mr. grackaroni?

I love attacking players not around to defend themselves. That way I come out the victor in all of my arguments; After all, my opponent was clearly too scared to even show up.

I like the plan but one suggestion Pandain day 1 Oak day 2

I really would prefer to stick to my master plan. Not that I'm defending Pandain or anything. He's also a total scummer. We'll kill him day2 unless something pertinent comes up. How much could change between now and then?

no, i want to ask a question -- why does pandain only get to ask one.
asinine, what's your reason for smurfing? i can think of only 2 reasons. which one is yours:
[a] you have a reputation known throughout the land of being an excellent scum hunter, and you don't want to die night 1.
[b] you believe your meta is so obvious people would be able to read your play day 1.
[c] other (please expand)

Those are some pretty good odds. I'm not against RNG if people are up for it.

Why label Stutters as town


As a conversation starter. Up until that point only little blue men were being discussed and I am unable to partake in that discussion to to my unfamiliarity with big green or red men. Obviously I did not think that Stutters' post gave a clue to his alignment, but I may not of conveyed the tone correctly.

On October 31 2013 12:05 Asinine wrote:
and leave the thread?


Due to Stutters reply. As you begin to read his post he appears to care about what I said, then when you get to the end I realised that he does not care. There was no reason to continue that line of conversation with him and I had nothing that I wanted to post, so I decided to spare the poor tl.net servers the effort of adding another one of my posts for a short while.

On October 31 2013 12:05 Asinine wrote:
Your post serves no greater purpose other than to gain Stutters' support.


But my post gave you something to post about and in turn gave me something to post about. Now I can wonder why you commented on my post twice even though that you thought my post had no purpose. You might be mafia looking for something to post about, but obviously this early in the game there is no real need for that. You may be town attempting to move a conversation forward. Or perhaps you genuinely thought I had a clue as to Stutter's alignment two hours into the game when only five people had posted, and felt the need to call me out on that. Either of those possibilities fit in with your second post.

On October 31 2013 12:07 Asinine wrote:
Looks like he didn't even gain Stutters support... Regardless, hzflank does not look good right now.


The (rhetorical) question is: did you post that for the sake of posting something? Or did you post that hoping that I would reply directly to you? Or did you post that because when you were reading the thread for the first time you were already looking for scum, and my post was the only thing so far that looked like it might be scum?

I have no flipping idea, but less than five hours into the game and when I am tired, that's the best that I can do at the moment.

Hey all. First off I'll add my name to the very much against random lynching list for the exact reasons Oats posted.

Also, I'm suspicious of the people pushing for it. Most notably hzflank because he only said he was for it after people brought it up. Like, even though it's only a 30% chance, if I'm scum and someone talks about random lynching my first thought is probably something like "Oh god, what if one of us gets chosen? There'd be nothing we could do." So he makes his post saying he'd be for a RNG lynch to show everyone that he's not afraid of it. Even going as far as saying

How in the world could his odds actually be worse than random? Even if he had no scumhunting skill whatsoever, it would be @ worst equal to random.


I don't understand. You believe that scum are afraid of being picked by random lynches, yet you say that people are scummy for pushing something scum are afraid of?

You do realize you can't just lynch people because others support it right?

The only reasoning you have given is that hzflank was the 3rd person to say yes to random lynch, thus he was pretending to agree with it to show that he is not afraid.

Because it can't be influenced by scum giving us good odds. That is the reason why statistically day 1 RNG lynches come out more successful than analysis.

This is terrible reasoning. The odds of lynching a scum from the hardcore(1-5 posts max, with a vote to stay alive and no contribution has the exact same odds as picking someone at random but provides an added benefit in the form of reducing the room scum has to hide in the inactives.

I don't really wish to argue over the benefits of RNG but you are wrong. Scum can push town lurkers and we would be none the wiser. RNG is completely objective.

Because the whole point of that was that I did not like the idea of random lynching because I was worried that scum might control the random.

I also was under the impression that you were in support of random lynch if it was actually random, but I can see the sarcasm now.

Would scum, knowingly voting for someone to look good, openly state that they're placing the vote because many others appear willing to do so?

Oats should know better. JJD's posting doesn't look like scum. he comes off as a bit anti-town but he hasn't been very careful at all.

Would scum, knowingly voting for someone to look good, openly state that they're placing the vote because many others appear willing to do so?

Oats should know better. JJD's posting doesn't look like scum. he comes off as a bit anti-town but he hasn't been very careful at all.

That post looks exactly like noob scum or noob town. You think everyone plays scum perfectly? Nope.

Also JJD unvoted. Hmm. I need to think about this one.

the players doing blatantly scummy things day 1 are almost never scum. He also should be having more trouble coming back into the thread and responding if he was an overwhelmed newbie like you suggest. I can only think of one player that did something like this that flipped scum and it was his first game. It's very easy for scum to appear pro-town on day1.

Scum are careful and more concerned about looking good. They pretty much never say, "Hey, I'm going to lynch this guy because other people are lynching him"

When you were first questioned about your post involving stutters you could have answered it in 4 words.

As a conversation starter.


Instead you rambled for 4 paragraphs about nothing. In general scum are more likely to have these knee jerk overreactions than a townie who knows he is innocent. None of your later posts have made me feel any better about you.

Not a fan of this quote either. Town are generally less concerned with whether or not they offend others with their posts.

Show nested quote +

I should also say that it was not meant offensively (towards Stutters) as I am not sure now as to whether I offended him.


Oats can you explain more about why you liked hzflank's rambling post also if you had to vote right now who would you vote for and why?



Judging from the last sentence in that post I got more of an impression that he is messing with us than it being a knee jerk overreaction.

I don't agree with this when talking about new scum players. It is pretty normal for a new scum player to jump on an easy bandwagon and use that as their reasoning. That being said new townies do the same thing and I am more leaning new townie on JJ.

Grack what do you think about hzflank? ?


I'm not sure yet. I liked his first defense because I think he has a bit of an attitude (Saracasm/messing around with us) that gave him some negative attention. I really don't buy that he got really nervous over that accusation and wrote out a long defense because he is scum.

-Tehpoofter who do you think is scum? You have several useless posts and one saying you had no reads. We are over half way through the day you should have some suspicions at this point.

Just from playing with Oatsmaster I think it's more likely he's scum jumping on lynch bait than town and believing JJ is scum. Oats can be nutty but he's actually pretty good.

I have played a shitton with Oats lately. Nuclear Winter Mafia, Titanic, Persona, Aperture and now this game.

What do you want to know?

Just what you think his alignment this game is and how you can tell. Every game I see someone talking about how Oats is the easiest player to read and I have absolutely no idea how to read him.

They told me this:
If Oats is agressive and in your face he is town.
If Oats is passive and shifty he is scum.

He was pretty passive and evasive in NWM in which he was scum with me. Not the biggest help to the scumteam.


Are there examples that you need to have to form an opinion about him? What bothers you about him this game?

Listen to the Koshi. THE KOSHI!

Passive and shifty. Yeahhh best attributes ever.

Ok so Mig, Hzflank seemed really confident about his position with that long rambling post. Im pretty sure that ive played in a game with hzflank as scum and I dont remember him being so jovial and posting long bits of shit that dont really need to be there. Hm. ok so scum post a lot of stuff cause they are nervous, town post a lot of stuff cause they are confident. Is there a difference? yes, and I feel that hzflank is confident.

I wanna lynch JJD or Grack now. Grack's instant defence of JJD is weird because apparently he doesnt have that innate suspicion of people and is calling JJD town for something that is pretty objectively scummy. Basing his vote on someone other people think is scum. Ive seen someone on mafiascum do it. And he was scum. And I didnt lynch him cause I thought he was noob town.

You said it was noob town or noob scum for JJD. Noob scum would not be posting as persistently under these circumstances. JJD looks very confident as well, Oatsmaster. I don't understand the point against me.

All JJD has basically talked about is Random lynching. Which anyone, scum or town can talk confidently about because its unlikely to be implemented anyway. So its just empty words.

JJD actually confidently pushes hzflank and reconsiders his opinion later. When people question why he would rather vote people other people are also voting for he sticks up for his opinion. hzflank mostly just posts a bunch of fluff in a confident manner.

no, i want to ask a question -- why does pandain only get to ask one.
asinine, what's your reason for smurfing? i can think of only 2 reasons. which one is yours:
[a] you have a reputation known throughout the land of being an excellent scum hunter, and you don't want to die night 1.
you believe your meta is so obvious people would be able to read your play day 1.
[c] other (please expand)

Those are some pretty good odds. I'm not against RNG if people are up for it.


I would think my chances of actually identifying scum on day one are less than 31%, therefore RNG would yield better results for me. Ofcourse, We would need to decide on who rolls the dice. How should we do that? I suggest we vote on it.
How could anyone read this post and not think you were for random lynching?


Because the whole point of that was that I did not like the idea of random lynching because I was worried that scum might control the random.
This is exactly my point. You pretend like you're ok w/ random lynching when you are clearly concerned about it. First you say that you're worried about who gets to choose the random person. Then when it's pointed out to you that there is indeed a way for a random selection to be chosen, you change your stance to: If we lynch randomly then we wont get any discussion.

If that was your stance then what was the point of suggesting that we vote for someone to pick the random person?

I suggested that we vote for someone so that we do not have to vote for someone. That is not a serious suggestion, that is me saying that I want to vote and not rng.
OK, you're saying that you were being sarcastic in that post as well as the following one. Didn't understand that's what you were saying. If that's the case then it didn't come across that way to me at all but I can definately see it that way now.

Since that was the bulk of my case:

##unvote hzflank

It's true that he was attacked for his confusing RNG logic where he said hzflank was scum for pretending to be unafraid of random lynches, but when he brought this point up the only thing that happened between the change of mind was mkfuba agreeing with it.

How is my read bad exactly Oatsmaster? You eventually agreed scum would be more likely to attack JJD so that point must be valid. And rather than being honest you lied about being bad in order to discredit my case. Also discrediting me since you were calling me scum for saying JJD was town.

It also doesn't help that because one scum targeted you last game you OMGUS the two people to accuse you and throw out all of your previous notion on how scum players would interact with you.

Reallly Grack? You think my vote is based on the fact that Pandain voted for me? Nope. Its based on the fact that he only voted and did NOTHING ELSE. NOTHING. Fucking bullshit.


Your read is bad because it has a few preconceptions.
1. That Oatsmaster is good enough to see between lynchbait and scum.
2. That JJD is town at that time.
Isnt your read the opposite of OMGUS yourself Grack?

It has like nothing to do with me being 'scummy'. Its not even meta, its worse than meta.
I lied where exactly?

Also if you checked properly, you will notice that most of the time, I will call the dude who called me scum, scummier because of that read, it just ends up that the dude is town.

Yeah ok Grack is scum now. This is like the one thing you could do to change my mind.

1) I do think you are good enough to know that JJD is unlikely to be scum.
2) I think so and you seemed to think so as well when you said it was true that scum would be more likely to attack JJD than to hard defend him.

You lied about being bad to fit your own agenda. (defend yourself/discredit case + Grack) You don't actually view yourself as a bad player. That much is clear from your previous game and from this game.

I know you said it later but you were explaining currently why my read was bad and that's not a current reason for it being bad unless you changed your mind on JarJar?

you used bad here as well. I'll let others comment and sleep on it. Definitely want to hear some opinion from the Panda.

Incorrect. I wanted to lynch you for jumping on lynch bait.

Your defense was that it's not actually scummy because you are bad.

You are referring to your defense to what I wanted to lynch you for.

Why don't you contribute

I am contributing, I just shut down something that could had become ten or more pages of nothing concrete, you're welcome.
And the very post you're commenting on is trying to generate discussion. You on the other hand. Your biggest impact on this game have been getting randomly generated to be lynched.

And I'm starting to think Oats will be a good lynch for today.

Cool, and why would you want to see them spotlighted over others?
I think Odin is a terrible pick really. Since he's not been around, why did you pick him?

Because he's active in another game and still hasn't shown up in this one.

Jumping on lynchbait isnt scummy unless you expect me to be good enough not jump on lynchbait. Which is the absolute weirdest argument ive seen about me being scum ever.

That really isn't true. You can be good enough of a town player to see who is scummy and who is not and bad enough of a mafia player to jump in after Laughing Jack and attack people that are seeming to get a lot of negative attention.

I'm not being an ass, I just don't have the patience to babytalk people who refuse to use their heads.
But is that the reason you want to lynch me? Because then I think you just promoted yourself to worst player in the game.

Laughing Jack, you literally don't know how to play this game. What you need to do is read the thread and comment with your opinions. What you are doing right now is coming into the thread complaining that people are posting a lot, ignoring everything that has been written, and just asking Oats who is scum and coming to the conclusion that he is scum for not answering your questions.

If you are going to be insulting other people while doing that then I want you out.

It amuses me that it's concerning to you that you don't know all of my reads when I think my reads are pretty open on players that are actually doing anything that can be alignment indicative. Most other players are not this way.

Take Mig for instance. All I know of his reads is that he gained nothing of interest from the thread and is going through with the circumstantial hzflank push. He asks many questions, yet he rarely adds in his own opinions. You want to kill that guy?

All I know of your recent reads is that you think JJD is town. Jack is an annoying asshole, and Oats is scum.
I guess Hzflank is also leanign scum for you.
I wanna know MORE.
MORE.

Unfortunately I don't want to tell you more. Most of these players are all null anyway.

Nobody is willing to comment at all on what I said on oats.

Oats only plays the noob card when he is mafia and he has an agenda for using it. Why would he say it as town, he doesn't actually believe he is a baddie.

For clarification, Mig is the guy who seems to have some interest in keeping up appearances and is not saying much. Pandain is the "fuck it" attitude guy. <3 Pandain.

So the noob card I played was actually a 'non-pro' card. You are totally twisting and exaggerating what I said Grack.

No I'm not. You called yourself "bad" twice in a row. Then when I came out with posts from your town game incriminating you, you started saying that you're just not good. Word choice is important.

I think It's different. A newbie only posting in one game could indicate that he rolled scum and is nervous to post. If Pandain rolled scum he would have to be a dick to his teammates to be an experienced player and blatantly not care about the game and get lynched. Knowing Pandain I don't think it's likely.

@Bereft: I know Oats doesn't normally think of himself as bad. I wanted something to show that. I'm sure if I looked in other games I can find him saying something along those lines before being provoked by BH but I don't really need to because its clear now from this game.

You don't think it's damning that Oats sees no reason to play the noob card as town and attacks HF for doing it in that game because that is something Oats does as scum?

Why would someone as town, who doesn't view themselves as bad, try to convince others that he is bad? That shouldn't ever happen. He knows that many other players view him as bad.

Oats is actually pretty good. That's why I am more interested in him. Laughing Jack is either not good or much more likely a troll.

Oats has played over 30 games on TL. I don't think he's quite as clueless as people perceive him to be, but If not oats than I think we need a new lynch besides Pandain.

Is your town read on Pandain simply based on the fact that you don't think he'd be a dick to his mafia temamates?

That reasoning was good enough for syllo so it's good enough for me. He doesn't HAVE to be town but I really don't see Pandain just screwing over his teammates like that. I'd rather not lynch him.

It's not really the same. If he is scum he should have a team going "c'mon Pandain start playing the game or we will lose."There's more of an obligation for mafia to not let down your team. I don't see him going, "nah. You guys are on your own."

I don't think Mig is right Pandain. I loudly pushed Oats and only Laughing Jack jumped on the train and people haven't been very adamant in pushing up other targets of their own. I'd bet mafia are either almost entirely afk or content with a hzflank lynch.

Can you do something useful? If you are town and you really think fuba is scum, why don't you make a case or post some evidence?

I prefer to sit back and manipulate Pandain into sabotaging town's lynches.

In all seriousness I don't see what is so scummy about Hzflank. He's getting way more suspicion on him than he should be. No scum agreed with my Oats lynch, which really should have happened if oats was town and hzflank was mafia. I think a fuba lynch is pretty solid for day1. My only real concern is that Odin is on the fuba wagon.

I'm not sure if it's a scum point though. Surely scum as well would know after the flip that Stutters helped lynch scum.

Oats is being weirdly helpful in a lot of his posts this game and he's not spending much time trying to figure out the game.
All I see in his filter is a town read on hzflank for being confident. (which also could have been equally applied to JJD) A scum read on JJD for caring about whether others agreed with his lynch. A scum read on me for defending JJD. And him wanting to lynch Pandain for lurking.

Maybe I'll check out some meta.

I'll think about it but I can kind of understand it from a townie POV as well. He had a scum read on hzflank and viewed fuba as null and then a last second bandwagon showed up seemingly out of nowhere.

All I see in his filter is a town read on hzflank for being confident. (which also could have been equally applied to JJD) A scum read on JJD for caring about whether others agreed with his lynch. A scum read on me for defending JJD. And him wanting to lynch Pandain for lurking.

Maybe I'll check out some meta.

Ill try to be less helpful.

Do you think Pandain is more likely to lurk as scum or as town?

I don't think Pandain would completely screw over his teammates as scum. I could see pandain being "busy" and doing little scumhunting as scum, but this Pandain had done nothing and was putting a target on his back.

So we have at least three more lynches, unless a vig shoots a town. Last lynch will of course be trickiest if we don't lynch scum.


4-3 after a Mislynch and 3-3 when scum shoots a townie so I don't think it matters if vig accidentally hits a townie tonight.

With nearly 1/3rd of the players in this game being mafia I think it is pretty optimistic to think that none of the mafia voted for Fuba (unless hermeane's replacement ends up being mafia).

I would agree with this and I think the most likely person to be mafia on the lynch is poofter, (No real analysis yet this game, stutters looks pretty towny and Odin's vote was more important) but that doesn't mean it's not a good idea to focus on the people not on the lynch for tomorrow's lynch.

This post from Mig seems so disingenuous. I can understand him defending himself by pointing out that he was scum hunting. But does he really believe that someone thinking he's scum means that person has no common sense simply because he "put legitimate effort into scum hunting"? Where was Migs common sense when voting for hzflank, who put more effort into scum hunting than most did?

Mig comes from a different period of mafia play! I am convinced that 2 years ago for the most part townies were the only ones scumhunting.

Plays the newbie card, why?

He then posts a post about why Grack is scum, or at least suspicious later on. He never followed up what he wanted to do and pressure me, and in fact I was fucking around at the time. That's pretty weird to me as town bereft. He also never voted Grack then. It was just like a random analysis.

Regardless of whether or not he was afk, it's not a good point for his favor.

The thing is that Asinine isn't likely to be defended if we push him and he's scum. He's also not likely to be defended if we push him and he's town. So we can only judge him on his actions.

I think this analysis is pretty solid Pandain. I don't mind it when newbies play the newbie card but the fact that Oats didn't jump on him as an easy first push for using it doesn't help his case.

You are right that it's entirely possible that Oats just didn't notice it and wasn't paying close attention to people's posts. Town Oats does think that playing the newbie card is scummy though so it should have been an ideal push for Oats.

Oats was ready to give up Asanine though. I haven't re-looked his filter yet but I'm just not completely convinced the way he defended fuba is more indicative of a mafia player defending his teammate or a town player with a mafia read on hz seeing a last minute bandwagon pop up from nowhere on a lurker. I also don't like the argument that he's not thinking so he's scum for saying he wanted to lynch stutters after fuba flipped.

My gut right now is that the last 2 mafia are in that poofter/bereft/hopeless group so it's possible that is the reason why there was no mafia resistance to the lynch.

Oats/fuba were not there at deadline. Bereft was also not there. Obviously hopeless just replaced in. Poofter is a new player and it makes sense for a newbie to do what poofter did if all of his teammates are missing and there is suddenly a lot of traction for a mafia lynch.

Of course he's willing to give up Asinine. Assuming Asinine is mafia, then they're not going to hard buddy someone. If Asinine was mafia, I would hard bus him hardcore and play it from there.

So the question becomes is Asinine mafia and I think he's suspicious enough to warrant a lynch, more then the targets you have at the moment.

His reasons were really weak for defending him. And then when it became obvious he just switched entirely

He didn't exactly switch entirely. He was never townie on fuba and even said he would vote him over odin. he just didn't think there was as good of a case on him as there was on hzflank and was wary of a last minute bandwagon. I don't think it's a ridiculous switch in mindset.

If you are really confident that Asinine has to be mafia then I will trust your judgement.

I would probably put Asinine as my 4th guess for mafia.

I think his filter lines up pretty nicely to be honest but he did push a mafia agenda and it is wishful thinking that there just happened to be no mafia that fought against the lynch.

I would think not Asinine is a likely teammate of Poofter/Odin either because with the way Asinine was pushing against the fuba lynch it's not worth it to have 1 lurker push the lynch on to scum when everyone else on the team is not on the wagon.

Hopeless, you said earlier that Stutters could be a possible teammate for Asinine. Do you really think that's likely considering his interactions with the flipped scum? I remember in Hogwarts you narrowed in on all of the our house's interactions with Pandain and determined that Holyflare was the hufflescum.

lol let's not go too far Asinine. Regardless of how your filter may look you are still a smurf who is likely capable of playing a decent scum game and you were the only one loudly pushing a scum agenda. (Making sure the lynch was on hzflare rather than fuba)

I didnt really use Pandain as an anchor to compare filters against that game, HF was the scummiest looking of our house based on actual content and actions in the game.

Quite frankly, Asinine looks like scum and I think we are in the situation that Mig has described where scum is banking on Asinine looking so scummy that doubt seeps into our minds wondering why isnt anyone trying to contest his lynch and we just agree to lynch elsewhere. I don't know who his scumbuddy is, and it does not matter. I don't need to lynch his partner to win. However, I do need to lynch Asinine so that this game can move forward. If he manages to flip town, we are still ridiculously better off without him. He is like the embodiment of scum right now. He's cancerous and prohibitive to any constructive discussion while he is around.. Remove him.


Pandain's filter seemed to me to be how you got town reads on Mattchew/Storrzerg so you must put some stock in using scum interactions to help determine alignment.

Let's play on so that we have things to work with in case Asinine doesn't actually end up being mafia.

Could you do a brief write up on what you make of stutters interactions with the flipped scum. (filter oats and fuba in stutters filter and stutters in Oat's filter) I personally think they make Stutters look quite townie.

I'm not positive Asinine is mafia but I am going to vote him because I'm certain he is going to be lynched at some point in this game and it's probably better to do it earlier rather than later so that discussion doesn't just get stuck on Asinine.

Setup Information

Overview:
This is a semi-open setup. The possible roles are listed, but the exact role counts are unknown. The mafia win when they equal or outnumber town while having more than 1 member alive. The town wins when mafia only have 1 member left. There are 10 townies and 4 mafia. Mafia have 1 KP each night. Notifications will only be given if required by the role.

Before I leave, just wanted to throw this out there. If I was scum, why is no one defending me? Scum loses if I'm scum and I die.

Scum also needs 4 mislynches and if you are scum and everyone wants you dead with one guy pushing the lynch away from you then scum is as likely to lose from the obvious interactions later on as they are from voting you and hoping that me/Pandain do something to push the lynch away.

Meh don't think the lynch is going to be stopped at this point. Going to hope I am over thinking things and Odin is his buddy.



##vote Bereft


I just don't think there is ever going to be a time where the town finds Asinine townie. If we switched off Asinine today we would just go through another day like day2 of everybody listing off reasons for why Asinine has to be mafia and him being lynched.

I think hzflank makes some sense for a night kill. Pandain was a likely medic protect so he's unlikely to be shot. I was going strongly against Oats while failing to convince people so while it's ok to leave me alive I think it would reflect badly on Oats for me to be shot.

Then we are pushing and discussing multiple people as scum and can get some real information out of the day. We get nothing if everybody just pushes the exact same thoughts. (Asinine is scum because he defended scum.) I don't want to risk another day of just hearing reasons for/against Asinine even though I feel Bereft could have a slightly better chance of being scum.

This isn't a defense.

I don't see the point in hoping on the Asinine train. He's already dead.
I'm not going to add rehashing arguments to my lurker status this game.
So obv following scum would look bad but sheeping a train looks bad.
That said I'm considering either Bereft or Mig as Asinine's scum buddy.

Poofter flipped scum in our newbie game and I feel like his playstyle was different.
Yes he's lurking hardcore but Bereft has looked bad from the start of this game and while I liked Mig's early scum hunting but I feel like you didn't do much on D2.

##Vote Mig

What do you mean with the bolded? You should vote for who you think is scum; You shouldn't ever as town vote for someone because you think voting for them will make you seem less suspicious.

I just thought the first 2 pushes (hzflank/JJD) were pretty clear townies by the end of day1. And with the lurkers Odin/poofter correctly going on the mafia wagon it made the game pretty easy.

I wasn't being emotional. The game doesn't have to be entirely comprised of 5 paragraph posts; sometimes quick back and forths like me pushing Oats can have a lot of content. It's annoying when you show up in the thread and ignore everything being written, complain that you have to read spam, insult people's intelligence, and then make absolutely no contribution of your own besides asking people who they are interested in lynching.

You make it out as if it's just bad mafia play to pressure scum reads and that is not the case.

You see how this makes like absolutely no sense. I spent 3 pages pushing oats mostly on this point and then your in game-reaction was: "wow grack, Don't you know that Oats will never agree with you... Soooo why do you want to lynch pandain?"

What you should have been saying was, "I think that Oats defending himself by claiming he is bad while actually thinking of himself as a decent player is scummy." Or whatever you actually thought of it at the time.

I see what you are saying though. I could have spent time pushing other things and could have just wrote out one longer post on Oats. That was the most important thing in the thread for me and I'm not trying to convince Oats that he is scum; I'm pushing him to see his reactions.
