Just finished reading up on abilities so many :o

I want to ban graves he can only cause confusion. I don't think we should ban talon however. What we should do is just lynch anyone that picks talon. Do we know who is picking what champ. I was rereading cause i wasn't sure. But it looks like no cause ww has to know the name and the champ. We don't know the whos what champ so then a talon ban, a graves ban and an amumu ban sound good.

##Ban Graves


Also guys do we have any specfic draft plan we wanna set up. I guess we would want the scummiest people to go on the bottom of the draft and have the towniest people go on top so we can make it more likely that town can get the good roles first. Ofc we should all be open about our draft number and write them in the thread so we dont have any mix up.

What yall think? :o

ILL BE BACH (after sleep)

Generic post. Would lynch as well. Also the apostrophe exists for a reason in the English language... use it.

I like Rean he's trying to roleplay his character (DoubleLift) who would mean hes town cause hes not on SKT I would think. But then there would be more players on SKT then mafia slots. So it is possible he could be mafia as LiftLift and if he was mafia with the balls to say his real role name (DoubleLift was a big SKT fan in the shoutcasting)

But given his general game play so far i am gonna go with my gut and say town.

First off... how do you know that Rean is DoubleLift and two why would not being on SKT mean that he must be town. Scum are always given fake names to use. Why are you so sure on his alignment based on nada?

He's Doublelift cause he called everyone trash.... Duh.

Also i am learning to use apostrophes. I'm writing a post on it thank you for your help.

No, the only reason why you'd expect him to be honest about his claim is because you're scum. Just like how only mods can recognize a fake nuke and make a joke about it. You're scum.

I have to agree with jay at this point.
Rean's post are obv Liftlift impersonations.

That's not the point. The point of the question is WHY does he "know" who they are of. Why should he expect Rean to be town because of the hints (whether taken as Doublelift or LiftLift or whatever the difference is). Why should he read this as a town trait? There's literally zero reason for that. The only reason for why he can assume that Rean is be honest about the name claim is simply because he's scum and Rean is town; he knows Rean's alignment so he can read him as being honest about the summoner/player/whatever the fuck it's called in LoL that Rean got in his pm.

Oh also, Jay I'm not sure what you are trying to say with the pick order statement.
I get that town would want townies first scum last... But short of knowing their #'s and picking them placing both of you at the back of the queue... I'm not sure how you'd hope to accomplish this.
Maby you can fill me in on your thoughts if I've misread the OP..

Also to note, even if there is a way to accomplish this we probably shouldn't spread numbers around (especially second #'s) until way late in the phase to ensure that the scum don't just sacrifice to place the stronger townies at the back of the Q with themselves.

Don't ignore me. Why don't you think Jay is scum?

Why do you think he's starting conversation instead of putting out random +1 blandness? Why can't you see that him giving Rean a town read based on complete bullshit makes him scum? The only reason for Jay to take Rean as being honest about the player/summoner he rolled means that he's reading him as being 100% srs about it. The only reason why Jay could assume he's being 100% srs about it is because Jay rolled scum because there's little reason as town to lie about the player/summoner rolled.

All right, so why in the hell would we not ban talon?

Saying it's an easy cop out and a bad mafia player will pick it is terrible logic. What you're saying is if someone is suspicious and rolechecked as town then we should lynch them. Why even allow that possibility in the game?

Yorick and graves are also solid ban choices. Yorick's is ridiculously strong for scum.

Yo, Geript back off of Jay. Do you even LoL? So he's claiming a town spot with the trash posts what does it matter at this point? He's trying to set up a ban priority list. It's just not phrased well.

IDK why MZ likes sandroba... a sandroba that lurks is far more likely to be a scum sandroba. VE really disappointed me in not talking about Rean or Jay or anything actually important.

I'm going to be 100% honest here people. I'll probably end up voting for Rayn's ban targets, but I don't think it matters whatsoever. I know who I'm going to try to pick regardless of where I pick (unless I end up with a super prime spot). Roles for the most part don't matter. I expect that scum will only be nixing the super-pro-towny roles. Without knowing the Scum KP and # of Scum and 3P stuff our guessing on who to ban is just that. Any reasonable 3 are likely to do fine. It's far better to "waste" the day scumhunting than worrying about bans.

These are the only ones worth considering ban imo. Tryndamere should be considered very pro-scum.
Annie - Incinerate - Vigilante -- Possibly worth blocking since it's extra KP every day.

Cho'Gath - Feral Scream - Worth banning. Deals damage AND checks HP. Very pro-scum.

Evelynn - Ravage - Anonymous Vig -- Worth considering blocking

Fiddlesticks - Drain - Consistent KP and healing -- Worth considering.

Heimerdinger - H28-G Evolution Turret - KP you don't control. Good for scum or town.

Karthus - Requiem - Triple KP -- Worth considering banning.

Shaco - Jack in the Box - Defensive power and KP-- Worth banning to prevent scum from getting it.

Tryndamere - Spinning Slash - Very pro scum. KP to a broad range of people.

Twitch - Deadly Venom/Expunge - Firebomber--Very pro-scum/3p.

Viktor - Evolving Technology - Inventor--Goes 80 different ways.

Yorick - Omen of Death - Janitor. MUST BAN.

@Rayn. Graves is a bad ban choice. Scum banning cops will be irrelevant of whether Graves will be available. At best, Graves is a role which a low draft scum may pick up because town are highly unlikely to take it. That's not worth a ban. Banning a powerful KP ability to deny it from scum is better.

We can pick the powerful KP-roles and use it as town. We can't use framer as town in any way.
That's why it's a better ban.

I disagree. Because it's far easier for scum to coordinate the draft phase (town plays as selfish individual while scum plays as a team), then scum is far more likely to end up with 2-3 early drafters to grab those early picks.

I don't think banning any role is a must. Janitor should be obv ban. But Framer is a role that is very hard to use effectively as you generally must guess who is both the cop and his likely target. Banning the best KP power or powers after janitor, mainly ones that are non-specific, multi-use, and/or affect multiple players are better IMO as that type of combination is far better for scum than for town.

This is easier said than done. I picked like 10/10 in the last PYP and ended up like 3rd pick or something. Coordinating to get picks is hard for mafia to do imo.

My point was that all your team was spread out well to maximize odds of going high. You guys got a bit unlucky to pick many of the oft chosen numbers iirc but still got 2 picks in the top 5. We can expect 6 scum and 1-2 3P.

Anyone who wants to kill Rayn better explain that shit ASAP. He's not obv scum and he's been super active. Reads like town and he's not worth considering for a lynch/nk until we see who and how he pushes D1.

That sounded like a border-line personal attack.

What other than Soniv lurking hard this phase and disliking Rayn makes you think he is scum?
You should post this instead of directed attack that isn't doing anything.

Of course it's a personal attack. If he doesn't explain his shit then I'm grabbing KP and shooting him pre-Lynch 1. He's pushing Rayn in a stupid way and I'm happy to just remove that from the game by intimidation or by force.

Why don't you think he's scum? What, in all of his disruption and argumentative posts made you give him a "I want to keep you around" vibe?

He has a 5 page filter already; as scum he has no reason to be this active already in the sea of lurking that's going on. He looks and feels like the aggro town Rayn I know. He's good as scum but far and away worth waiting on to see who and how he pushes further.

I don't disagree. My point is that as scum he has no reason to be this active right now on day -1. Maybe on Day 0 to get a lynch line up but not right now. Especially when most people aren't reading or posting. Plus, I understand his tow reads and mostly agree with them. I just don't think organizing picks ever works well.

Mass claim is bad imo. Makes grabbing specific roles significantly more powerful ie. Warwick.

not to mention that we'd also have to 100% have people committed to "check if it's taken" picks. People won't do that.

I don't disagree that a mass claim is bad at some point. I don't think that point is just after roles are chosen.

It's mostly a gut read. He's not putting himself out there in any real way. He's just doing random shit and posting whatevs.

Despite Kurumi not drawing, I don't think he's scum even though he think I may be. Filtering now that I'm caught up. Dependent on what the MD says I may be able to be more active.

seriously? we're already at the point where you just "lol what?" my posts? You said I am scummy. You didn't give any reasoning.
I called you out before for soft-defending me randomly without actually reading my stuff
then one day later you randomly appear and call me scum.

I point out, that this looks like a cheap countermove and you answer "lol what?"

I think you're just posting without reading anything in detail. That's extremely scummy man. I don't know
I won't talk about ongoing games here.

by "lol what" I mean how in the world are you calling me scum for something that didnt even happen.

This post really stood out to me. This doesn't read as a normal Oats reaction to me. It's like he feels the need to defend himself but isn't actually willing to be in the spotlight in this manner. Honestly, this game it feels like Oats is trying to pick a fight with me just to pick a fight with me because that's what town oats does. It's very similar to his game in hydra (with Rayn) where he rumbled with Mocsta because he had a history of Oats/Moc bitchfests as town in his recent history.

Are you blatantly ignoring my question?

No. I was filtering. Kurumi afaik has been known to be carefree/trolley. Often he would draw and things. Close quote from the podcasts, "that's it. I'm calling it. Kurumi is scum. He's not drawing."

It's a quote from the first podcasts. Geez Marv get with the program. I think the question was how can I get that fun carefree frilly style and still be effective. As an addendum answer Kurumi noted how that style is very hard to mimic as scum. Especially since as scum you need people to listen to you. So it becomes obvious when you break from it.

Mocsta, can you give me quick reads on the following people (a couple of words will do fine):
supersoft, geript, OdinOfPergo, Storrzerg, sandroba, gtrsrs, Oatsmaster, justanothertownie.

SS - Null.
Most of his posts are setup speculation which is acceptable either alignment at this phase of the game.
I admit I haven't played with a scum SS; but I also havent played with a pleasant one either. It makes me naturally assume something is different. Hes active though which is a good sign too. Yes, null.

Geript - Soft town lean.
Trolling Geript is null. But this Geript appears to be trying to push the thread into a certain direction - using reasoning vs slander. I also like that he is trying to make "look at me statements" to be noticed. He *wants* the attention. For this stage of the game I think thats pretty townie.

OdinOfPergo - Null to soft scum lean
Very setup oriented filter so i dont place a lot value in having activity. Half the stuff hes takling about I have no idea about because I'm not familiar with LoL. Hes also got an early Day0 obsession with Jay which hasn't relented, yet, he seems to be asking the opinion of others rather than talk to Jay to firm up a read?. This is kinda reminding me of how I approached Storrzerg in Mafia LXIII.

Storrzerg - Null
No idea, nothing really to work off

Sandroba - Null
Sandroba is known for good plans as town so its natural for him to easily receive buy-in // propose something conceived pre-game.
Hes also known for lurking as scum. Hes given reasoning for lack of activity, so I think he will become pretty clear over the next 48hrs especially with roles being out.

gtrsrs - Soft town lean
I hate players like this. Troll. Its pretty light hearted, and the joke he made on Sandroba made me laugh, which is probably a good sign - as joviality is hard to fake. Most of the stuff is selfish setup talk which probably indicates town that will be useless to moving the thread forward i.e. the usual TL sign up these days.

Oatsmaster - ??
It looks like hes trying to stir the pot intentionally.
He seriously couldnt think that SS vet idea was good...
I honestly have no idea how to read this guy anymore, he used to have direction in his pushes as town. Tips??

Justanothertownie - Null to Soft scum lean
He is uncharacteristically active/assertive. The games I played with JAT he was pretty timid. Here he is calling people stupid and just in general seems to be on edge. I find he also talks to Rayn as if auto-assuming Rayn is town. White knighting?


I'm still reading the thread, but I don't know if this is normal for Mocsta, but this post is a classic example of saying a ton that doesn't make up for anything. To me Mocsta is posting a lot to seem like an active townie, but nothing substantial but "null" or "leans" that really are just filler and don't contribute anything to the discussion.

##Vote: Mocsta

##Unvote; Mocsta Oops I didn't see this was a response. I will revisit this accusation after I finish reading the thread


So, you're scanning the thread looking for something to pinpoint as opposed to reading the thread and understanding contexts?

Come on LSB, I know you're better than that.

This seems like a weird way to attack him. You know he's better and he's not being better but he's only potentially scum? It's such an odd push entirely. Nothing you've said will force him to respond. What's you're point in making a blah post?

I disagree with your percentage and I don't particularly dislike Oats. So the LoL factor doesn't weigh in. Both jays seem town to me.

Not going to bother giving/explaining town reads until i think it's necessary. I'm curious as to why you would ask me of all people that. I think it's pretty obvious that I'm town.

I've only played a handful of games with you (maybe 2); one was nuclear where palmar caught you on a missed town read. I haven't read your filter yet but I wanted to get a sense of your thought process in specific.

Isn't every read based on play? Why do you think your play is so transparent? You've been jumping on people all game in a seemingly random fashion. You distract more than contribute.

That's generally a pretty strong reason for me to be town. Either way I'm feeling a Oats more than jcarl. Meh whatevs.

The aspect in hydra when iirc in scum qt he posted "I'm going to pick a fight with Mocsta because that's what I do." He gets into shitfights with people. Also like in nuclear (not in duke nukem) he wasn't very much putting himself out there. That's what I've seen this game.

Because as town Oats walks into fights blindly, he doesn't go looking for them. As town they happen as they happen he doesn't look for usual targets. I mean he completely tried to avoid a fight I pointed out earlier for no real reason; reminded me of his response to me in nuclear of "Stupid game for a stupid player."

Idk. Iirc there was someone who kept plugging the need to get all #'s picked out in the open. I didn't care either way iirc. I haven't played w/ him before afaik but it wouldn't surprise me to to get a paranoid towny pushing that.

Honestly I've been thinking about the draft phase more. I don't think scum expected to be able to grab Yorick and were fine with a ban on it. I think the Graves ban was just as likely pushed by scum knowing it'd be a useless roles given their bans and would assure that scum roles they wanted were available.

Sounds like you want to lynch kush for bad play rather than for being scum. Which one is it?

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's gotten in bitchfests about people voting his town reads. That's not uncommon at all. His pick is a very interesting claim too because it'll justify him being around for a few days as well (big shield for 4 phases or something). I think you're wrong obv. But can you explain the BAL scum logic. Remember to use little words because I'm stupid and bad at the game.

Main reason because you went back on an early town read which I've never EVER seen you do as town. Especially when in nuclear you went ballistic over people targeting/voting the dude that made you laugh and you have a random town read to.

Something like "I forgive you my boy"

I think it's closer to, "and you I absolve/forgive my (male) child" IIRC it's the latin phrase used to absolution of sin... not wholly sure on the "puer meus"part.

You had a town read on me early and even defended me against VE and shit early on. But you were willing to vote me over the "Oats totes scum" stuff. That's bullshit and you know it.

Your case on Oats is bullshit and you should know it. It's based on things you fit into something Oats has once did as scum and never answered me when i asked "so does Oats not do these things as town". Because he does.

It's never the "what" he does it's the "how" he does it.

These are pretty much mafia favored roles (some more then others) so last slots *could* check them. I don't think town would take these roles, so no one would have them except mafia. The last slots have a much worse chance of getting neutral roles like veteran/evasion or vigilante roles so I think it's worth towns while.

4. jcarlsoniv - Heimer


That's my rough draft. If people have recommendations or criticisms on numbers/orders or generally better ideas, I'm open to it.

He's been pretty active, so if he's not sure what to pick, Janna seems good for him. I like his judgment on players so far, and I think he's town.

I tried to put them in order of power level.

What's really odd to me is not the jcarl case or vote. It's the progression of thought. Like he obviously thinks that Heimer/Janna are powerful roles and the Heimer is a potentially pro-scum role. The really odd thing about the case is that 11 hours earlier he had a reasonable vote of confidence in jcarl as a player. More importantly the really weird thing about the case is that in only includes 3 posts from between when Bum thought jcarl was town (12-2 @6:05) and when he thought he was scum (12-2 @17:14) whereas he included 4 posts from before when he thought jcarl was town. I'll read more when I'm back from work.

More importantly. As town, when I'm evaulating other players based on who their targets are, that's not something I frequently forget. It seems really weird to 180 on that in 11 hours. Jcarl's targets previous seem to be Rayn and Geript. Yet afterwards, Bum posts:

I have yet to analyze geript, though my gut said mafia. I was going to but the jcarl analysis wore me out, and I scratched a whole long segment that I thought wasn't good.

But that's really weird that Bum liked jcarl's targets of which included Geript/Rayn but yet had never really analyzed me over "gut" sentiment.

Not Rayn, just you. Don't reach.

So you admit to never taking a serious gander at me but gave jcarl a townread based on him liking me for scum... I mean liking us both for scum doesn't seem odd in the towny sense to me but liking us both for scum while making a case on him and practically completely ignoring me is really fucking odd.

More importantly why did your view on pre-case jcarl change over 11 hours? Yet it seems like at 12-2 @15:00 you didn't have particular notice of anyone.

Also where is supersoft. I would have expected him to be around by now and commenting on current events. His only case this game has been against LSB who he called scum but then he proceeded to say he isn't sure if he should be lynched today in the same post? He also said he was going to go do some meta research on him, did you ever do any of that super?


I'm not actively reading the thread, just happened to be around at the time. And it really annoyed me that apparently it's okay to tell others to kill themselves over a fucking game.
ATM I don't have any opinions on anyone, didn't really read that much of the thread. Prolly gonna find someone that looks town enough and go full sheep.

+1 for not telling others to kill themselves over a game, it was a few steps to far. Should be addressed out of thread anyways, and possibly maybe filing a complaint to the moderators.

However, lurking is probably the most anti-townie thing you can do and hopefully you can remedy that.


I pmd the host account hoping they're gonna do something about it but nothing so far >.>

Really rean, I think you are reading too much into that Roffles comment. I guess it's ambiguous, but when I read it I thought he meant kill yourself in game, i.e. use abilities to kill yourself and didn't find it that outrageous.

Honestly I'm with Rean on this one. Even if it's meant that way it's pretty bad. I try, often unsuccessfully, to make my "death threats" reasonably clean in game. Considering the back to basics game I can understand his sensitivity to the issue.

I'm going to look into BC when I get home.

Honestly I'm not even sure how I feel about the Bum wagon right now. There hasn't been many if any other real wagon options. We only have 11 votes of 22 total. That concerns me because if it's a bus I'd expect 14 minimum. Honestly, right now I'd really prefer to vote Rean or Jbrundage on policy. Anyone else interested in a big switch?

What else concerns me, at this is partly my fault, is that the atmosphere isn't great for town. It's not god awful, but I don't think many are actually evaluating other people's points or trying to understand what they're trying to say. Yes, sometimes things can't be explained well but I think most comment are being swept under the ego rugs and that's going to make it really hard for us moving forward.

You said you would play lazy this game pregame. He can be scum and use that excuse to not do much, skating by with out doing much. Im sure if the heat gets turned up on you that you will step it up and use that great scum play i was talking about. A couple players seem to be defending you as well with not much basis other then that your a vet.

Marv do you think your a good scum player? You acting like I'm wrong yet we both know you play a damn good scum.

I thought i had played another game with you but i was wrong. Regardless my whole post was to say you play a very good scum and I if you play townie-like there is a still a very strong chance you can be scum. So im gonna FOS you like a sonovabitch.

Also you have me a scum read I read later on. Please Marv tell me why I would create a terrible case on you a townie vet. As mafia and draw my self into the spotlight. It wasn't even a case ffs. It was a gut read. You say Im bullshitting. But how is a gut read bullshitting it just is a feeling. If your not dead in a day or 2 your prolly mafia regardless of how your playing.

One of the things that bothered me about jay earlier is that this doesn't feel honest to me. I can fall into the paranoid town trap pretty easily; I don't think this is real paranoia. When paranoid townies tend to derail, there's a very obsessive quality to it. Additionally, paranoia tends to spiral in drastic and crazy directions. What's really odd about it to me is that he both 'forgot to send in his numbers' despite being pro-"everyone should state their numbers" but additionally that he's not at all concerned with what/who marv chose. If I were that paranoid about Marv being scum, my #1 concern would've been getting a higher slot than Marv and trying to figure out what he would've taken so that he couldn't get it. Being a newb (or hasn't played much) I'd expect very different spins from him and I'm not really liking how lackadaisical he's been about his "concerns/FOS about Marv" without that really carrying into any other aspect of his game. Feels like a random newb card to me.

Do you still think rayn is scum?

I don't see why he wouldn't. If he's that concerned about Marv being scum (that's practically his only discussion) then I don't see why he wouldn't concern himself with trying to get that role. Yes, it's seems ridiculous to normal rational thinking, but you also have to remember that paranoia is by definition irrational. The fact that he isn't being irrational really bugs me.

As far as thinking rayn is or might be scum, honestly I have not clue. There's no way he gets lynched today so there's a real point in me trying to get an assessment on him in any regard right now.

Usually I like to back things up with examples or at least fancy words. You have the rare talent or choosing not to do either.

You've never really accounted for Sandroba or Marv's points. You never really explained my points against you. You continue to push me as a scum read with no real reason for me to be scum when I'm the person who really started the counterwagon against your lynch. You never really came back and explained your reads on why the people who you suspect are scum. You're the person who faked going to Trynd but picked Lux and seem completely revolved around that while no one really suspects you for that.

You did come back with a chezinu-esque fucking poem with practically reads as a scumclaim. On top of that, you've completely fucking avoided talking about the counterwagon to your fucking lynch entirely. It's weird as shit and scummy. The fact that your defense is focused on bits of things that people don't really find you scummy for and not the big fucking elephants in the room is why people are so happy to jump on your wagon in part.

As in he gets to egg VE on with both the unvote and with the vote on VE. Gets to see how many times VE wants to keep posting the "Roffles just voted XXX"

I don't think that when a lynch is this far ahead with time to kill and ODD type person wouldn't mind fucking with people just to fuck with people. With 4 people on LSB and 4 on jay, very low odds that his vote makes any difference. I don't read into it as more than trollish and slightly town leaning as scum get random attention for that when it's not like he's not already going to be under fire as being a lurker.

That was slip in my scum mentality not following through with what I would do as town though. I don't think that automatically crosses over to everyon else.

And we all know that you would unvote and vote the accuser I dont see what the problem is.

Yah, but I'm me. It's like saying, "well VE plays scum this way so everyone must play scum this way." It's an inductive fallacy (might be wrong on that, haven't brushed up on logic and argumentation).

Why cant we ask Roffles to take accountability?

I'm find w/ demanding accountability and firing shots at him until he dies and/or lynching the fuck out of him. But the vote accountability is like the least of my concerns.

Even if he was town realising consolidation is not required; how do we know hes not going to do this again next cycle.
Premature cockblock from you, I thinks.

Well if you'd like, I'm sure Marv or I could unblock your cock for you

No but you didn't do anything to move the lynch to your preferred target either. You're happy roasting Jay but didn't want to vote for him. You're happy voting LSB but not trying to convince anyone else to vote for him. You're happy being in the background.

yeah ok you read that part. I guess you didnt read the other part.

What did you do to get Oats lynched over Bum?

I tried people didn't buy it. So I looked around for other people that I thought could be scum. Hence the reason why Jay as a counter wagon was brought up at all. You're just in the background +1ing shit. You denying that?

Yah I think he's scum and I'm going to ride his ass until I either die, prove it to everyone, he dies or I'm convinced he's town.

Geript, I was ok with lynching bum.

Yah, that's part of my problem. The way that wagon ended up (no real counter wagon, no major push in other directions, a majority of the vote at many points, everyone seems fine with killing but no one really making a push to save him, etc) it didn't give me great feelings that we were going to lynch scum. Yah I recognized that scum could just be inactive/willing to bus/bussing/etc, but that's significantly lower odds imo. As town, I'm never "OK" lynching town. I always want to look and see if there's something missing something else moving. The inactivity in the thread, other than about bum, didn't feel good. People being "ok" with his lynch and not wanting to go elsewhere really bugs me. So did VE's "I'm not gonna vote Bum because I like LSB way more" thing with sandro.

1. I'm surprised you didn't know this.
2. Only Rayn/Oats/jcarl/Kenpachi and idk who else are considering it afaik
3. I'd rather hear your views on what/how it went down.

1. He is not actually doing anything useful here.
2.His case on Oats is a couple of comments followed by "Oats did this in his scumgame X".
3.He didn't even want to lynch Oats "because noone will believe me so i am up for a lurker lynch".
4.His scumread on me is "rayn changed his read on me, he does not do that when he is town".
5. He is calling out my most pro-town plan there is.

Yeah that's my case on geript, everything he does is either really weak - and not in a townie way, or straight out bull.

Here's a line that Oats loves to use this game, "but which of those makes me scum?"
Honestly can you step back and say that this isn't just confirmation bias. If so then bring it and bring it hard. In the mean time, I'll be lynching scum.

hey rayn and geript, what do you think about Risen and Roffles?

Risen. No clue. Read him at one point but nothing memorable other than I feel like Risen has been more vocal in games I played where he was town.
Roffles. Slight town read based on behavior. I skimmed him once but thought there were more concerning issues.

Noted. I think that is a fair position (regarding Geript).

I agree with his case breakdown though. Some of what you said is annoying as the end-user (e.g. shits on ya plan) .. but I dont see why a townie wouldnt/couldnt do that either.

I don't care about someone telling me your plan is bad in case they have something better to offer. Which geript hasn't.

In theory, I don't dislike all of you plan. I just don't have a solid read on Koshi. Not sure I've played a game with him since nuclear. I didn't and don't like your push for graves ban; framer is a mostly worthless scum role IMO. I don't wholly trust you. I don't think your plan has been fully stated or pushed. Honestly I don't think a plan is fully required. I found it odd that you're not throwing your weight behind LSB more to push for claims (Vt or which role) as that was very influential in the last PYP but you seem to forget that.

I am tired of talkingabout claiming strategy. At least now i should be obvious people won't agree to certain strategy regarding claims so i couldn't care less to push something that will never be achieved.

So can you understand me saying "I want to lynch oats, that's not possible so I'd like to lynch Jay ."

The problem is you never even made a case on Oats. The "case" is spread all over your filter and it was really hardfor me to find why do you even think he is scum. Then you just proceeded into saying "Oats is scum" and a bit later "well Oats is not gonna get lynched, so let's lynch a lurker.. like jay".[quote]
So does that make me scum?

Here's the thing that, yes once cooler heads prevail mine included, that thinking someone is scum doesn't magically make them scum no matter how much chezinu faith is put into that. Yah, I can recognize that. I hope if you're town you can too.

Nobody cares about the fake claim. Like that's the least scummy thing you've done.


Usually I like to back things up with examples or at least fancy words. You have the rare talent or choosing not to do either.

You've never really accounted for Sandroba or Marv's points. You never really explained my points against you. You continue to push me as a scum read with no real reason for me to be scum when I'm the person who really started the counterwagon against your lynch. You never really came back and explained your reads on why the people who you suspect are scum. You're the person who faked going to Trynd but picked Lux and seem completely revolved around that while no one really suspects you for that.

You did come back with a chezinu-esque fucking poem with practically reads as a scumclaim. On top of that, you've completely fucking avoided talking about the counterwagon to your fucking lynch entirely. It's weird as shit and scummy. The fact that your defense is focused on bits of things that people don't really find you scummy for and not the big fucking elephants in the room is why people are so happy to jump on your wagon in part.

geript this post really comes across like you know he's going to flip town.

1. Is any of what I wrote wrong?
2. How so? Because I've done the same thing like multiple times as scum?

And is that feeling any more valid than my feeling that oats was picking a fight with me? Is there a difference between venting and "smack down." Is that even what VE meant or is he just bringing up a point and not fleshing it out so others can fill in the gap?

Honestly Koshi I'm really pissed off at you. Like rayn says you're unlynchable right now (not actually but that he'd cockblock it). Like my first game with you I remember wanting to lymch you for coming across to me as dumb/newb/scum but not wanting to risk it. Here you're not wanting to participate for sounding dumb yet people aren't instantly taken to lynching you. IMO you're in my lynch it with fire zone and I'm not thinking twice right now.

I was just about to comment on how many of them were KP or RB or a mix. And you're not bothered by the fact that he's done nothing day 1 and gotten away with it and you're feeding his trolling and you're not even willing to fucking tell him to not make KP and make investigation stuff. Instead you're very, extremely unconcerned about Koshi who is and actually has been part of your plan, the person you're claiming to shield from damage for 2 days, not following through on YOUR PLAN. But you wanted to bitch at me for not liking your plan whatsoever and not coming up with a better one. Really Rayn?

So the content of what he posted doesn't matter, only that he posted?

Well broadcast the fucking message to the scum team, all you guys need to do is post a halfassed analysis and koshi will call you town.

Even the way this is worded doesn't come from the perspective that you think Koshi is mafia, it's couched in the terms of Koshi's message to the scumteam, with the implication that Koshi is not of the scumteam. It's all pretty weird to be honest Meapak.

Do you think jay's analysis is half-assed? Because that's what you said. Or is it hyperbole? If it's hyperbole, why?

The whole message to the scumteam bit is supposed to sound sarcastic but apparently that didn't translate.

I honestly haven't looked too closely at jay's analysis, I just read it and saw koshi's response.

No, it did translate, the point is that consciously or subconsciously, those are the terms you phrased your attack in. And you felt it was ok to attack Koshi's stance on what jay had just said without having really read what jay just said? Colour me unimpressed.

Yeah because who gives a fuck what jay says, it's the fact that koshi just doesn't care. If you had said the same thing he did I wouldn't care because I know you are paying attention to the game. Koshi on the other hand clearly does not give a fuck and his response to jay's post read like "oh wall of text, I can call this guy town" I'll repeat this again, it's not about what jay said, it's about the way koshi responded. I couldn't give a fuck who it was honestly, it read like koshi saw an analysis and went "he wrote a lot, I can call him town."

I care what jay says and I want to lynch him. My initial reaction to reading it while driving was, "Man it's odd that he directs his case on VE only to VE."

However, since it may have existed geript could you please explain your reasoning for the post on zero bans. Thanks.I'm also interested in how you, geript, feel in general now that I have partially filtered you as you asked.

How I feel in general, nauseaous. But that's just the antibiotic I'm on right now. As for my post on 0 bans, I honestly don't think that bans (other than maybe yorick) made any sense this game. We're given little information about roles, their health levels, how much they protect or damage, what the ultimate is, Unlike the previous PYP where there were obvious roles that were exceptionally important to deny scum and it was a matter of how people ordered them, this PYP because of the complete ambiguity of the roles there's little real discussable material with it. So not only are we very unlikely to be able to pick the "right 3", the discussion about the picks is likely to devolve into a worthless "IMO this" "IMO that". Plus, I just don't think it actually makes a difference on the game at all. Which roles get banned being/making the scum team the most vulnerable or feel the most vulnerable is going to change drastically based on who's scum. None of the bans actually replace the ability to scumhunt or in any way affect the ability to scumhunt (yorick included), so the bans and number picking and role picking is very much a distractor for me than I think it is anything important. I based the role I picked partially based on which people my champion apparently played with more consideration to which roles I'd want to know if someone ahead of me were to take or which roles I'd prefer to prevent scum having. In many ways I've taken a similar approach to how Dr. Helvetica took in LIV, "who's mayor/pardoner doesn't really matter. I'm more concerned with who the mayor is intending to lynch" despite the fact that I exceptionally despise Dr.H and think he's an awful person and would never ever want to play a game with him again except to play just to troll him and annoy the fuck out of him.

On a more serious note about how I feel after you've filtered me, I actually feel pretty good about my play and I think that alot of your description of my play tends to characterize some major differences I have as town.

Its based on almost nothing. But geript is in it like a hell hound. Got his teeth sunk in the meat of Jay's leg all deep like, I don't see it from a townie. A scum wants to leave fangs in over something dumb because its a way to look active. A town gives up bad game as bad when they realize its going no where.

Like this specifically, I don't believe that hour 0 pressure is not worth a damn. I very much feel like many of my initial impressions and feelings are less clouded by my conscious thought process. I've given many strange and correct scum reads on people very early on based on completely random stuff. As for me sinking my teeth in, I think that's very apt but I also didn't feel like there was an adequate resolution to my suspicion of jay and it moreso got passed over based on picking phase "priority stuff." To be honest, a lot of that unsatisfactory resolution is why I went back and took a look at him late day 1 because I wasn't really liking how the bum vote was shaping up and I wanted to provide an alternative that I really believed in because I'm just not sold on all the LSB stuff. The major difference for me between how I play scum and how I play town is a lot of my scum play has shown that as scum i want to convince town to follow my lynch out of an ego thing and I don't want to have to bother trying to keep a consistent timeline of things (which is exceptionally hard for me to do); additionally, I'm far more passive as scum. I think most people equate my scum play with Dr.H's "the Game" which is really unfair because my scum team was absolutely amazing and that really lifted my play; whereas I think my scum play is far more like LX or LXI whichever one it was that I was "confirmed town" in. I literally had to keep on watching WoS filter in that game to try and keep up with his page count so that my activity wasn't an obvious tell.

On top of all that, I think I'm a bit relieved by it. I think a Geript mislynch is a thing that can be very easy to push and with, at that point, many people and some who I thought were town were including me on their "Hmmm I could lynch this dude" list. Lynches like that can happen really quick and I didn't want another thing like what happened with Bum (Wagon forms, no real opposition or alternate option around) to happen to me too. Because that's very frustrating as a player.

Why is that a good idea? There are a million hidden powers and it seems likely that at least one of them is also related to names/champions.

So far from what I've gathered the hidden powers are mostly OPG abilities (mine is Spray and Pray). I don't mind risking triggering a OPG ability because it's not going to be consistent.

I liked you explanation for NO BANS! so explain why we need FULL CLAIMS!

First off, Accountability. If abilities are used, we should know about it. Second, it gives us a ton of information about what people's mindset was and is. Third, people who roleplayed their player are more likely to be town IMO so for people who have lesser content it provides another potential way to evaluate them. Fourth, it makes scum guess who's chosen what. Fifth, at least a few people have claimed to have picked a champion based on their player; this gives us a way to check that.

Part of the reason for me coming out is because 1: It's night and 2: the fact that very few people claimed VT and that even fewer VT's claimed what they tried to take made me a bit suspicious because nobody claimed wanting to grab Twitch (mass damage seems like a pro-scum/3P thing).

I want to be very clear. I don't think that people with SKT players are necessarily scum just like I don't think that people with non-SKT names aren't necessarily scum. I'm betting that WoS and Kita mixed that up some both according to flavor and also provided other players to scum to use just in case.

Either way I gotta head to work. I'll try and read at work but no promises.

I would actually be very surprised if people on the scum team were non-SKT. This whole game is built on flavor and following the structure of the League-atmosphere. It would just seem odd if they made this whole setup that SKT are the bad guys, and then make some SKT members non-scum.

In the recent Hogwarts game Harry Potter was scum. I wouldn't put to much weight on stuff like that.

Of course he was. He's British right?

I can't find the post. But I remember (imagined?) a post where someone took 215 damage, but I can't find in on my phone. I remember thinking that person responded with incredulity but wasn't really motivated to change his actions/behavior. I remember thinking "that has to be town KP because of the target." But the scummy thing was that the person didn't really try to change despite being lynchbait. The incredulity doesn't bother me it was the fact that it wasn't more than just "I've been shot"
If this was a hallucination please let me know.

One last note. I think people stating they've taken damage is better than giving an amount as it makes it herder to guess how much KP scum will need to direct their way to kill them.

Look guys. I'm going to request that everyone Thais 4 hours away from mafia and come back later. This thread feels like it's getting toxic super fast and I'm losing interest really quickly in wanting to play. I get that the sheer number of replacements is frustrating as is losing Marv/Prome. But we really need to get a hold of this before it devolves.

When everyone comes back instead of just saying X should die or whatever, let's have everyone actually make cases that we can constructively discuss and weigh so that we can actually lynch scum today.

Reading his filter I'm at loggerheads.

- I cant follow his reads mid Day1 - they read like checklists and with some of the reads I dont even know if the lean is town or null.
- I find him to be a lot more direct/assertive during the pick phase. Coupled with the point above I find pretty scummy.
- Has a read on OWB/Kush.. that is weird.
      On one hand he is making some effort in his filter to push it, and on the other hand I don't feel he is making an effort to strengthen his read by talking to Kush.
- I do like how he plays early Day 1 with Geript/Jay. It felt like he was stopping that feud and then tried to generate discussion with the right level of assertiveness.
- I also misread him earlier when I said he +1'd me. That was prob OMGUS of me. Having said that, I dont see why it is relevant to call me out for making excuses. Doesn't take it anywhere either.

Overall
I think he has good potential to be scum.
I really want to see him push his prime read (Kush) more.

Not even a name I recognize. Given that he doesn't even have a mafia database entry I'll assume he is new.. As always anyone who knows anything about the individual who can add anything metawise would be greatly appreciated.

According to an old Gonzaw heuristic I'd have to call JL scum, he stopped posting while getting boozed up. You can't trust a dude who stops posting while his guard is down.

Based on his early posts I'll assume Johnnylaw is a LoL convert brought over by Wave. Dude knows his LoL (and I don't, so a lot of his early posts are not in a language I speak).

This makes no sense. There's not a lot of pressure on you because you're flipping it on everyone else. Just fucking calm down, make your arguments and wait while we gain more information as people post, vote and draft. I get that you're making people talk and that will help us down the line but for now we have little information and ten pages of personal attacks and shit posting is clogging up the whole fucking thread.

Get your shit together or I'm saying you are scum or at the least, not helping the town actively.


The series of personal attacks and shit posting for ten pages gave me nothing yet. I'll post again after I see what scum ban.


Holy double donkey dicks. Would lynch off of this post.
1. threat
2. it was a weak threat
3 that last sentence. You know what ten pages of shitposting gives a townie? I'll give you a hint, it rhymes with bum lead.
4. the whole thing is a soft grab for town points, its a 'ooh but bad thread atmosphere is bad' post with out doing anything to fix what it complains about. Scum love to agree with something being anti town while doing nothing to prevent it.

So far this post is the scummiest thing I've read in this thread. Would lynch.

This means we need to know which champion the player has successfully picked. Why pick trynd at all? Just so you know who has tryndamere? There's not a chance in hell I'm picking that champion. I plan to contribute to winning this game. Dealing damage to people above/below me does not help us win the game. I don't even understand.

Actually, I must say fuck your list. I disagree strongly with most of the conclusions. I think you're scum as is.


"I don't understand, therefore you are scum" = scummy
"I don't understand, I would like to understand" = townie
which is the above? Oh yes, the former. Johnnylaw is not making new points of his own, is arguing for and against nothings and keeps grabbing at town points while attacking town favoured plans. Note that he argues with the usefulness of the plan but does not provide a better plan, he is tearing down not bringing up.

Okay, I was out all day yesterday. Two hours later I've finally caught up in the thread.

gtrs - I dont like how his filter reads but he hasn't really given us much to lynch him either. I know he's capable of playing better as town so either he's busy, lazy or scum. None of these qualities help us win the game.

Soniv - fine for now. Looks to be making an effort to push the game towards a goal.

kushmasta - Like really? This guy comes into the thread and starts calling people scum in one liners and generally shitting the place up. He replaced OWB who completely shut down and hated playing scum in NMM L. The random tooscummytobescum post irritates me as well.

The rest have longer filters and I need to evaluate them. Just reading through the last 20 pages hasn't left me with other strong feelings yet.

I'll be checking filters and around for a while.

twenty pages of reading twenty four hours after his last thread appearance and the only kinda scummy thing he picks up on is that kush is a weird ass dude. I could have told you that for free.
He also says that gtsrs is playing the game. Which is not a conclusion. Everyone can see that gt is busy/lazy/scum JL doesn't provide any insight, he says he didn't like something and follows it with nothing until VE brings it up again at which time JL +1s like a champ.
He does these quick summaries of people which I can't stand, many of you know my stance on list posts without content and JL has many posts which are just one continuous contentless list. A bit of an excuse since Sandro asked him to look at those particular filters but in reality he said nothing about the four players.

Conclusion rating 4.5

my qualms with a JL lynch. The kid may be so new he doesn't see what he is doing and is unsure of how to contribute in a large game, lord knows its hard. He could be throwing around dog crap posts because he simply doesn't know how to make better posts, he seems relativly involved in the thread and has intereacted with many players by name and by idea. For now he looks like my first pressure for day two but I am not yet confidant I will want to lynch him. If I had to guess most likely scum out of the players I have filtered so far I'd take JL no questions asked.

Of course not to your last question.

What I'm saying is that warwick offers such a random attempt at something. With the bans how does ww benefit the scum anymore than other champions that deal guaranteed damage.

Your argument is preventing scum from getting champs you think are strong for them.

Look at Ziggs/twitch/eve for guaranteed damage. Then there are defensive champs for scum who already know their teammates. Warwick and trynd are just garbage imo.

Do you really expect to have scum line up for trynd in a position where we know who they are? It seems like a ridiculous pick to me.

On the other hand, warwick is incredible strong and even though we didn't know he would do 450 damage simply by guessing the hero correctly I think that the entire scumteam would have actually figured out that warwick was a good hero if they could get blues to claim. So JonnyLaw saying that ww is bad and heroes like Twitch/Eve/Ziggs are way better look more like a townie being "wrong" than a scum being deceptive.


I again read Prome and Mocsta points on JonnyLaw and I am not really convinced.

There are lots of things that bug me in Jonny's filter. First off I want to specifically bring up a point that Koshi made:

At first glance I didn't read much into this, but in having time to mull over it I think the conclusion that Koshi draws from this wrong. Scum start off knowing more than town by nature of the game; additionally scum start off knowing what their team will value. Being decisive about what roles are good for town but not who is scum reads as scum to me. Here's why: As new scum, it's very hard to fabricate scum reads. Whereas, being familiar with LoL and having access to scum QT and a team discussing which roles they are most interested in taking makes it very easy to be an expert on what the right and wrong picks are.

First off, Jonny does some speculation on ban based on second abilities but wants other people to ignore that. Second, he dismisses Urgot as wasted based on just being KP. Third, he continues the "Urgot bad" rap but starts considering other interactions. Fourth, he makes a point on how specific champs and work in coordination with knowing who's who. I would expect at this point Jonny to be able to put together that straight damage and increased DoT is exceptionally powerful in coordination with focus fire from a team. Additionally, his ban of choice was Nocturne which has a watcher (investigation) ability on it. Considering his focus on banning information denial roles, it would make sense that he could easily see a Town use for this ability.

Next there's an extreme adversarial tone he takes with practically everyone:

What really bothers me about this is if you read his filter it's pretty full of stuff like this. More importantly, he can obviously and absolutely recognize "shit posting" and tells people to shape up, get better, etc. However you can also tell from his posts that he makes no effort to do more than "shit posting" himself. IIRC this is a scumtell that Marv uses at points. The fact that there's so much complaining about "shit posting" while not having a single post in his filter that I value is exceptionally telling to me. This tells me that he's more interested in flinging "shit" than in analyzing and providing information.

Back to point 1: Uncertainty. This is Prome's strongest point in his case IMO:

I agree with you that Kurumi's trying to lead the town while not actually saying anything outside of game policy and how we should be playing. There's not a lot of substance aside from when he's asked directly or arguing with you. Maybe you two have some problem I wasn't aware of before this game.

Rean - Votes yorick, claims vt and roleplays liftlift. Could be scum lurking.

Austin talks about champ abilities and not wanting town to role claim. I'm not certain role claiming is the best policy either. Maybe I'm missing something but these two are lurking harder than gtrs.

Mocsta is making a lot of excuses. Busy, in mylo etc... I generally agree with Roffles and Mocsta about gtrs.

MZ wants gtrs lynched and then spends the rest of his posts defending himself. If this is a popular sentiment and he was a proponent of it early why is he getting so much flak? Are mocsta and MZ arguing for some personal reasons?

Why did you want me to read these filters. The first two say nothing and the second two are just arguing. Rayn thinks MZ's contradicting himself but the first couple days I thought Rayn posted okay for the most part. I'm more confused about them at this point than anything.

I find nothing gtrs has done to be town leaning. He wrote a bunch of posts about champions in league then wrote a case on jcarl that serves to defend himself. That's it. Either league abilities or attacking soniv.

It's exceptionally hard to find any point where Jonny feels comfortable calling people scum or explaining why he thinks those people should be lynched. I find this really scummy because as scum you know who scum is. It's really, really easy to make absolutely fantastic cases against them and analyze why they're scum. Jonny being able to recognize bad posting, continue to do it and continue to never have any sort of solid scum read shows me how absolutely uncertain he is to push a case.

As a huge bonus, Jonny is a major lurker. 3 pages in a 180.

I look into Austin and a few others after my tests tomorrow.

And now Chezinu is back to me having no clue whether to lynch or not. Like is fun to play with you at points chez, but it's also frustrating as hell.

Moc can you give me a summary point list on why Austin is scum. I saw it come up but read it during break in class and don't remember it.

I think I'm just going to ignore you and request that you never join a game I sign up for in the future ever again. The frustration of playing with you is worse to me then the fun you shenanigans bring.

I really hope you're town chez because otherwise if you keep playing like this were fucked.

@Moc. How do you feel about jcarl, Rayn and the lantern thing. I have a really hard time coming up with any reason why jcarl would give it to Rayn over Marv. It really makes me think they're both scum. By this I mean as a Doc you try to save the best player who's you have a strong townread on. I have a very hard time coming to a conclusion why jcarl would not give that to obv town Marv over not-obv-town Rayn.

I understand that Chez tries to encrypt what he means because he makes reads out of the chaos, but it still makes him impossible to read because he does that as either alignment and your conclusions from what he writes are rarely his intentions. I know he's a skilled player as either alignment but the time it takes to try and discern what he means and then discern his alignment is not worth the time of reading his posts.

Chez just remember what I flip whenever that happens and remember to not sign up in a game I've already joined. I will not sign up for games that you've already joined as well.

To clarify, if you were concerned with protecting the role of (Koshi) a player who had done nothing to confirm his towniness at that point then you could've just given the lantern to Koshi. Second, players > roles; by giving the lantern to Marv you protect 2/3 players assuming they're all town and reveal scum in the case of either Koshi/Rayn. Third, I think the whole super inventor plan is an exceptionally pro-scum plan because at best things start working on D3 or d4 at the earliest limiting action analysis for 1-2 days instead of starting it right at D2.

I could go on but I have a lot left to do at work and I have 2 tests which I didn't study for this past weekend because of have laryngitis.

not true. Chez is perfectly readable town and scum. He's town this game.
Go and look at his games, there is a stark difference.

I have no clue how you get this nor do I have any interest in learning how you did it because I'm not going to play a game with him ever again.

Look jonny here's my perspective on it. This is as much as you've said about the case. You've done nothing to address any of the points. It looks like you're more interested from your posts in trying to say that X person should be town, or is "shit" or "plays like shit" then actually addressing in a clear and constructive way points on why you think X player is scum. Like we want meat from you but it feels like all you're doing is letting your ego play and blow hot air everywhere.

@Austin. Yah he's combative but I'm not quite sure I've seen a townie be that adversarial before. I think I've only seen it in myself when I've played on another site where I've had like 80 different exceptionally negative experiences. I mean I literally called out the whole scum team (and I wasn't bussing) and got lynched instead and then got called least valuable townie for that game.

Wholly disagree. Marv felt exactly like how he did in a previous game I played with him. He also shut down some major fights between me and others. Plus, I can't see Marv replacing out when he's playing the scum game of the century.

@Austin. Honestly I'm frustratingly mixed on MZ. Like I think you have a great point that he doesn't push his scumreads half as forcefully as he does his VE townread. Like that's you're best point. But I feel like I have a really good grasp on WoS (<3 you wubbybumpkins--except you know making my player Uzi is totally a bastard host move), so I can understand his faith in that read.

But there's a point in the game where on D1 I'm a huge topic of issue but he doesn't follow up on it. It's like the perfect time to push me as scum and push me pretty hard as he likely could completely get away with it. On the reverse side, there's this post

never once does he properly analyze oats and is content to simply lean on his "gut read"

he constantly talks about both oats and jay but never really tries to get people to join him and instead simply tells people to vote them because his targets are guaranteed scum.

The biggest thing I get out of geript is a bunch of noise and posts without doing anything substantial. For instance, he has his main targets but he brings up others on the side and never follows up. He's in that twilight zone where you can't blame him for the bum mislynch but he was definitely involved.

Probably the biggest thing in geript's favor is calling out people like austin and coag, both of whom are low content lurkers. If he's scum he could be bussing his teammates but it's a point in his favor that he doesn't let them fall through the cracks. However the reason why this doesn't clear him is because he never follows up with any of this. It's easy enough to call out lurkers as scum but he never actually follows through which makes me think this was an effort to appear protown.

geript is frustratingly inconclusive for me. He's done things I feel are scummy (hence my gutread) but I couldn't put it into a coherent analysis. This is the problem I was running into earlier in the game when I was looking at geript and sadly bum's death hasn't really made it any easier. He could be scum but I'd rather look into bum's other suspects right now.

Which I really don't like. He comes to a similar-ish conclusion to Prome (who gave me a stronger townie lean), like I don't like the thought process like this coming out of a vet. As a counter point:

geript hard defends Rayn d0 and really puts his foot down about it. He takes a hard stance which I rather like. Its odd, everything I'm seeing seems to objectively point to scum but I don't find it convincing. There is something in how geript is thinking that seems silly but not scummy maybe? I can't explain it right. He is ringing all the scum bells but it feels like he is ringing them for the wrong reasons. He has all this ill founded bravado that I think would be hard for him to do as scum. He is very in your face and it seems townie.

I like geript's day one play, he is all around the place. Starts on jay but doesn't stick. Has gotten over his bad tunnel. HIts oats.

People who are all over the place, to me, tend to read as town. Like it's very hard to bounce between reads as scum and continue to juggle that. This is a "tell" that I've seen be so true so often and, iirc, many "pros" tend to share.

Next this is going to seem really weird to bring up, but I seem to have skimmed some important stuff.

Hmm, this is an interesting perspective which gave some thought. *goes to move jay back from scummy to null in spreadsheet*. I wonder if it genuinely makes VE scummy or if it's just coincidence? Probably just coincidence for now, but it's interesting at any rate.

Like when I saw MZ and Marv's interaction and had to go back and reread Jay's post, my reaction was literally just like Koshi's. "wow that makes jay look towny."
MZ's reaction to Koshi seems really out of place and wrong. When good players read things completely differently that tends to be a warning flag for me.

Another thing that really bothers me is this:
On December 05 2013 01:30 Meapak_Ziphh wrote:
...you made kurumi get himself modkilled... have you ever seen a scum do that?

This seems like a really weird reaction to me. It's always been true that I've seen town get other town modkilled. Perhaps MZ's experience is different, but LIX is a good example of where Toadestern and somebody else ended up getting modkilled because other town brought up the rules and stuff and pushed it. In general, town tends to push other town to get modkilled and not the other way around so it seems really weird to me that this is his reaction.

In summary after looking and thinking more about his filter, I'd be down for a MZ lynch but not for most of the reasons you posted.

I actually really kinda like your townread on jay, not entirely for the reasons you posted but it reminds me of the nomination podcast where VE was talking about how one player (forget who) really flaunts his "#1 mislynch in the world" status way more as town than as scum. I'll have to reread jay to see if this is true but it's got me thinking moreso and that's plus points for not lynching you.

I can't explain it right. He is ringing all the scum bells but it feels like he is ringing them for the wrong reasons. He has all this ill founded bravado that I think would be hard for him to do as scum. He is very in your face and it seems townie.

I like geript's day one play, he is all around the place. Starts on jay but doesn't stick. Has gotten over his bad tunnel. HIts oats.

People who are all over the place, to me, tend to read as town. Like it's very hard to bounce between reads as scum and continue to juggle that. This is a "tell" that I've seen be so true so often and, iirc, many "pros" tend to share.

Next this is going to seem really weird to bring up, but I seem to have skimmed some important stuff.
[insert Jay's post on VE]

Hmm, this is an interesting perspective which gave some thought. *goes to move jay back from scummy to null in spreadsheet*. I wonder if it genuinely makes VE scummy or if it's just coincidence? Probably just coincidence for now, but it's interesting at any rate.

Like when I saw MZ and Marv's interaction and had to go back and reread Jay's post, my reaction was literally just like Koshi's. "wow that makes jay look towny."
MZ's reaction to Koshi seems really out of place and wrong. When good players read things completely differently that tends to be a warning flag for me.

Another thing that really bothers me is this:

...you made kurumi get himself modkilled... have you ever seen a scum do that?

This seems like a really weird reaction to me. It's always been true that I've seen town get other town modkilled. Perhaps MZ's experience is different, but LIX is a good example of where Toadestern and somebody else ended up getting modkilled because other town brought up the rules and stuff and pushed it. In general, town tends to push other town to get modkilled and not the other way around so it seems really weird to me that this is his reaction.

In summary after looking and thinking more about his filter, I'd be down for a MZ lynch but not for most of the reasons you posted.

The main problem with your idea / draft order reads is that it is too coordinated. Unless you can finger candidates for the mafia mastermind who is organizing the mafia, I have no reason to believe the mafia didn't just pick roles they wanted and made sure they didn't clash.

basically, it's pretty high probability that there is around 3 mafia on the top 12 or so. Take a look at the top 12 and tell me who can be scum.

I'd be interested in who you think. MZ has a higher odds of flipping scum IMO.

Why? I got the role I picked so that's the same.

The more I look at this response the more it makes you look like confirmed scum to me. A town JAT would easily recognize with the number of revealed roles and the players claiming them, that there's no way your role has any significance in the next 2-3 days. And it's not like JAT is obv town to grab an nk either.

First off, everyone voting Roffles is my my shit list. Yes he's a lurker but he's a lurker and an unreadable troll but his play isn't as bad as Coag's. Coag is a decent player. He's had 11 posts only 2 of which are longer than a single line. One is trolling about the strawberry rating system and the second is playing the birthday card so that he can get away with not having to post. This guy is a motherfucker and should be lynched with fire and told to go back to omgus.net or wherever else because this play is entirely unacceptable. This guy is known for being a complete ass. If we want a lurker lynch, lynch that bitch and not Roffles.

But I feel like I have a really good grasp on WoS (<3 you wubbybumpkins--except you know making my player Uzi is totally a bastard host move), so I can understand his faith in that read.

But there's a point in the game where on D1 I'm a huge topic of issue but he doesn't follow up on it. It's like the perfect time to push me as scum and push me pretty hard as he likely could completely get away with it. On the reverse side, there's this post

here's what I got out of geript:

never once does he properly analyze oats and is content to simply lean on his "gut read"

he constantly talks about both oats and jay but never really tries to get people to join him and instead simply tells people to vote them because his targets are guaranteed scum.

The biggest thing I get out of geript is a bunch of noise and posts without doing anything substantial. For instance, he has his main targets but he brings up others on the side and never follows up. He's in that twilight zone where you can't blame him for the bum mislynch but he was definitely involved.

Probably the biggest thing in geript's favor is calling out people like austin and coag, both of whom are low content lurkers. If he's scum he could be bussing his teammates but it's a point in his favor that he doesn't let them fall through the cracks. However the reason why this doesn't clear him is because he never follows up with any of this. It's easy enough to call out lurkers as scum but he never actually follows through which makes me think this was an effort to appear protown.

geript is frustratingly inconclusive for me. He's done things I feel are scummy (hence my gutread) but I couldn't put it into a coherent analysis. This is the problem I was running into earlier in the game when I was looking at geript and sadly bum's death hasn't really made it any easier. He could be scum but I'd rather look into bum's other suspects right now.

Which I really don't like. He comes to a similar-ish conclusion to Prome (who gave me a stronger townie lean), like I don't like the thought process like this coming out of a vet. As a counter point:

Geript do you have anything to add to the case supersoft posted on MZ. Before you say I haven't been reading the thread I stated that I was 20 pages behind. Do you agree with the SS summary or do you have a post or something you would like me to read.

I made a post on MZ that I've quoted twice I think. Also posted it recently to MZ.

MZ the crux of my arguments I feel are based on the fact that you seem to come to wildly different conclusions or reactions than I'd expect town to have. The point of the Koshi thing isn't you jumping on Koshi, it's the fact that, while Jay's analysis wasn't great, it showed towny mentality. You're response was "sure give a free pass to everyone". Like that comes more from scum losing a mislynch to me more than town frustration. Plus, if you thought his conclusion was wrong it makes more sense to point it out and pressure Jay more.

I'm done I'm not going to play this anymore. Coagulation not getting mod killed for inactivity or for obviously only "playing for his on enjoyment by lessening the enjoyment of the group" is unacceptable to me. There no point to play a game to have fun that has Coag in it. I'm not having fun. The people in this game aren't making it fun to play. The mods have chosen not to take action. There's no point for me to play.

The fact that you're happy to flaunt that you are doing the exact minimum to not get mod killed is reason enough. Congratulations though, you're the primary reason why I'm leaving the community. You must be proud of yourself.

Sure Coag pissed me the hell off, but I was honestly far more pissed off by the fact that the mods hadn't taken care of him before then. That type of play is 100% unacceptable imo and if I had been the mod I would've MK'd him on D1 when he had 2 posts for the whole day regardless of any reason he gives/gave. If you /in or /replace in a game and are selected to play, then I expect you to try regardless of alignment. I find it exceptionally ironic that his play has been deemed "acceptable" and my play not (as clearly evidence by mod ban request choices).

Then try to lynch him for it. What you did was way worse and much more frustrating to me than coags playstyle.

So you're saying I should improve up to Coag's style. Thank you for proving my point. Ask and ye shall receive.

Sure Coag pissed me the hell off, but I was honestly far more pissed off by the fact that the mods hadn't taken care of him before then. That type of play is 100% unacceptable imo and if I had been the mod I would've MK'd him on D1 when he had 2 posts for the whole day regardless of any reason he gives/gave. If you /in or /replace in a game and are selected to play, then I expect you to try regardless of alignment. I find it exceptionally ironic that his play has been deemed "acceptable" and my play not (as clearly evidence by mod ban request choices).


I don't think it's reasonable to expect the hosts to enforce rules that don't exist. The rule for this game was one post per cycle. Coag did not violate this rule. While I agree that the activity rules may need to be reevaluated, that's something that should be discussed regarding future games, not the current one. Furthermore, coag was mafia and extreme lurking is a viable strategy if he is playing towards his win condition. Whether or not it should be an accepted strategy can be up for discussion, but it has been accepted in the past and there is certainly no reason to expect a modkill for it this game.

Play to win.
This means you play your best to help your team win while you are alive and in the game. This does not mean, for example, that you should try to win by being a jerk to the other players so they all want to quit playing. If you're not playing to win you risk a modkill. This also means that you cannot leave the game without a good reason without a ban. These situations will be dealt with on a case by case basis. PM your host if you need to leave the game; I will attempt to accommodate.

So this wasn't in the OP? So "playing to win" doesn't include playing the game? I firmly disagree with you. There's a clear difference between Lurking and not fucking posting at all ever. In the ~150-200 pages that Coag played the game, he had a page and a half of filter. Being 3.33% to 4.54% of the player but posting < 1% of the discourse while having 0 content whatsoever, that's playing to win as scum? That's not playing to win as any alignment. Expect me to come back as fast as I can to implement this "winning strategy" regardless of alignment.
