Like i know it's the best idea but when people are not willing to do it there is nothing you can do about it. Right now it seems like you are intentionally shouting for an idea that's pro-town but what you can never achieve. What's the point? I think this is the most important thing that needs to get done and that's why I am pushing for it so hard. I do not understand why you think I should "give this up" an idea that you admit is "pro town". I am more concerned about doing things that will be very important to the town as a whole, and someone needs to do this and I decided to do it. If you want a scum read I'd say I'd read you as red, I can understand if you are saying stop yelling for massclaim because it is bad for XYZ. But to say stop yelling for massclaim even though it is a good idea stinks of casual sabotage. I would rather have your support for a plan you admit is "pro town" rather than attempting to dissuade it before it is completed. There is a good mount of suspicion on you. If you don't talk about the alignment of others it is harder to tell if you are town or scum. So I think it is very reasonable to demand this.

geript caught me out big time in Boardwalk by trying to pick a power that I picked. Through a good bit of behavioral analysis, he even got the thread to lynch me. None of that would have been possible if he'd kept his mouth shut about what role he tried to pick...because I had a plan for that role and town knowing I had it really fucked it over.
If you're a VT you should claim who you picked. At the very least if you CLAIMED VT you should definitely do so.

Scum can always coordinate their actions well because they have a team. Cooperation is a MUST for the town when everyone has a role. Otherwise people will just screw each other over when they for example roleblock scummy people (who end up being town) who have roles that are good for town. If we massclaim we can coordinate all actions at towns best interest. If someone does not do what they are supposed to, they risk of being lynched due to lying, it does not matter if they are town or scum, you just coordinate all the powers regardless of affiliation. Someone fucks up = lynch. Of course scum might lie and not get caught, but if they lie on N1 they misght get caught on N4 for example, when people flip and we are able to confirm roles/actions. Knowing all actions and assumed roles at all times is highly beneficial because there is no room for scum to hide with power. Maybe you are right. But you are assuming town will be united in what they want the blue roles to do and I don't think it will. If there are different opinions on the actions it gets easier for scum. If a majority agrees to a massclaim I will claim, ok?

As far as I am concerned LSB can hang if he keeps avoiding scumhunting. Policy lynching Bum for stupid reasons won't save him and I still think it is a weird choice for the last person in the draft to pick Tryndamere as town.

Do you think gtrsrs and JonnyLaw are scum, like honestly? gtrsrs did just make a case based on completely false setup information? Like he totally faked it? JohnnyLaw does not know which player list to look into when discussing things about player-mover roles. Do you really think scum are not that aware of the setup or do you think they are faking it here?
What separates ticklish from let's say Rean? ticklish came in and this is what he did: "i had a scumread on rayn, but after 2 days of looking into his past games i don't anymore" "i don't remember why i had a scumread on him" "my townread is based on him now being abrasive, which he is as town" "i however do not mention how that is different from his scumgames while i was asked about it" "i might not post much because i wanna get to know people's playstyles before making judgement on them -> i need to read their past games first" "but kushmasta is scum, that i can say - while other people tell this is what he does as town"
and geript's push on Oats is ridiculous, he takes some aspects of Oats' play and fits them into something Oats has once done as scum. That's not meta, that's bullshit. Especially considering Oats does all those things as town.
seriously marv?

My issue with ticklish being mafia is: 1.I believe he went away and read rayn towngames. Lazy lurky mafia won't usually do this 2.He actually found inconsistency in kush's filter. Now this doesn't make kush mafia obviously, but it does mean tickling was attentive enough to notice 3.his posts have a IDGAF feel about them. Marv what is this? I had absolutely the same thoughts as rayn about gtsrs and JonnyLaw (maybe that's not very strong reasoning but it's something). Why did you not answer his questions here? Avoiding a bitchfight with him seems like a really weak excuse to me tbh. Especially since he wasn't hostile to you at all. Also finding out that rayn is aggressive as town and that kush contradicts himself are like the easiest things to achieve ever.

Sounds like you want to lynch kush for bad play rather than for being scum. Which one is it? What's bullshit about it is that all those geript pushes were the exact same but you were more than happy to lead the voting there. What's bullshit is that you keep talking about Oats at the expense of anything else when Oats isn't getting lynched. Shape up. There aren't other horses I like. I don't trust Oats push on LSB. Sure the Oats scum storyline makes sense, "Well I can't drop this because it's not happening because then people will instantly call me scum for not 'believing in /pushing' my plan". Sure it makes sense, but the flip side is also true as town you're likely to push that shit regardless. Also, Rayn I'm pretty sure is scum. He was a big push in the graves ban. More importantly town Rayn doesn't consider voting his early town reads. Like never and especially not D1. I think he's being opportunistic in who he's targeting. Rayn of all people? Are you for real?

Actually that's most of the reason This is horrible horrible reasoning for a townie. a) who cares what you are, I am of the opinion that the less information we give the scum team the better b) being concerned about getting lynched is a very scum oriented mindset, townies have nothing to fear from the lynch because they are inherently innocent, it is a scum mindset to focus on not getting lynched. c) nobody cares about how much damage you do, you took a scum role, it should never be used d) the collateral damage your role does means it should never be used to target one person Seriously LSB it's pretty clear you are not looking at this from a town angle. This is a PYP game, there are so many unknowns that the less kp townies throw around the better. The last thing I want to see is for this town to shoot itself to death while scum laugh their way to gg. You throwing kp around indiscriminately is the most blatantly anti town thing done in this thread so far. 1) I also think LSB looks reeeeeally bad. 2) I don't like the way MZ is attacking him here. He is still attacking him for his plan (a)). Point b) is simply untrue because every townie should try to not get lynched as a very high priority goal. I am unsure of what to make of this.
The more incriminating thing about LSB is his refusal to talk about anything but his crusade and that is the reason he can die.

So you don't like the way M_Z is attacking LSB, but you think LSB should die. Do you think M_Z is scum? I quote posts when I reply/comment on them. Problem? I don't have any problem with posting oneliners all day (look at hogwarts for prove) so accusing me of trying to make my posts appear longer is pretty stupid.
I posted the thing about MZ because it is like this: Either LSB is scum - in this case I don't care that much about it later. Or LSB is selfish/antitown town. In this case I am suspicious of MZ later because he took the easy mislynch for the wrong reasons. I am obviously not 100% sure about LSB so I wanted to state that for now.

I did answer his questions after rayn posted again. I've been in a few games with rayn where he called me mafia because I didn't line up with his thought process, though he seems to have gotten over that which is nice.
I don't really understand why you're nitpicking at me because it should be fairly obvious I'm town by this stage, much the same as you're having a go at geript for calling rayn mafia when rayn is obviously town (which has already been done by me indeed, but you may as well do it again, right?) No you did not answer his questions as far as I can see. Or is this a complete answer for you (seems very generic to me)?
As always you (and others) labour under the delusion that mafia on day 1 will be "in the know". Mafia are dumb as well as town, often.
I still think it is weird for you to kinda ignore his questions and accuse him of picking a fight with you when he did not.
Yeah, I am leaning town in you for the rest of your play but I want to be sure about it because I value your reads and you ARE sneaky so why shouldn't I ask if I see something I don't like from you?

I will mark that as annoyed townmarv who didn't want to argue against rayns point for now.
So, who are the popular lynch candidates right now? Bum, LSB, ... ? I will be here several hours but most certainly not until deadline.
Also question for rayn and marv (anybody else may answer aswell but I want those opinions especially): are there any kind of roles that should definitely claim in your opinion?

If LSB is scum it makes sense for him to roleclaim after he found out how useless his ability truely is (50 dmg...). If it was more powerful he could have saved this for the right moment or he could have fakeclaimed. Add to this how he did almost nothing besides going roleclaim, roleclaim, roleclaim...
Going to look at JonnyLaw and Bum filters now.

If Bum is town and LSB is scum, LSB wouldn't have taken trynn, because his team would have told him not to do so since Bum was probably going to take it. If Bum is scum and LSB is scum, he could have dropped it to LSB, but I don't think that's the most likely scenario. If Bum is scum and LSB is town and just replaced in and didn't read bum's plans he could have went for tryn. This seems likely to me because LSB only noticed Bum didn't follow his own plan after BC called out bum on it. The other scenario is bum and lsb are town, which is also possible.
But the base line is, if you think LSB is scum vote Bum first. I bet you any amount you want that if LSB was scum and just replaced in he would have consulted with his team before picking something and they would have told him Bum was planning on picking trynn. I don't agree. Obviously bum being scum would fit in well but I don't think it is necessary for LSB to be scum. He is last to pick a champion -> not very likely to get any role. So why not try to get tryndamere who seemed like a very good scumrole? They couldn't be 100% sure bum was taking that role because no townie really wants it. Taking a risk with the lowest placed scum doesn't seem like a stretch to me. Good risk/reward ratio. Scum wants to have this role. Town doesn't. He is the last person to pick and chooses to go for it. Go figure.

I will announce my use of this action well before the night post 2) Move one space to damage someone I believe is mafia. I will not be using this ability night 1 atm, I will announce my usel of this action well before the night post. 3) Do nothing.
What I plan on doing tonight If Bum is lynched - I will do nothing If Bum is not Lynched - I will verify my role claim by moving up three spaces. So you didn't trust bum to take it - yet you attack him solely for that reason later. Did you think bum was scum before you picked? Tell me more about how scum has to think bum will follow through with his plan sandro.

Why did you pick Tryndamere of all those roles to verify its existence in the game LSB? Why did you not choose a role that has at least a tiny bit of townie possibilities to it?

Yep, basically every other role in this list could be used in a townie fashion. Why not one of them?

I don't think you understand what I posted. I am more interested in finding out the existence (and if they do the location) of the power roles and denial of their abilities to maifa. As last pick I understand the chances of me getting a role is very little, so it is far more important for me to use my pick as a way to verify the existence of a role rather than attempting to actually get a role. As last pick my optimal play is to pick a random role and that fell on tyr. I expected a different answer if you are town. Hm...

Ok, I read Bum. I am not convinced he is scum. The only thing that looks really bad to me is how he tried to justify lynching jcarl over LSB. He tried to organize town and was one of the few people with a plan before the rolepicking. I also don't see the reason for him to claim picking tryndamere and not following through as scum. The only instance this makes a tiny bit of sense to me is if he is scum with LSB.

If Bum took trynn as scum, he wouldn't ever be able to justify using it. Trynn is actually terrible for scum. It's pretty obivious when you are moving 5 pos and hitting people randomly that you aren't town. And if you don't plan on doing that why take it in the first place? Better to take some concentrated kp to eliminate threats quickly. But if he faked taking trynn and took something else it would give him town cred for never using the ability plus it would allow him to use whichever other role without suspicion. Too bad for him LSB didn't read the thread and randomly took trynn. This is actually a very good point. Although I am still of the opinion that you thinking Tryndamere is bad for scum does not mean scum thought so as evidently people thought it was a good scum role.
