It's worrying, not a declaration of a certain read. I have a town read on gumshoe, i don't see why saying that makes me more likely to be scum. I asked WoS about his "emotionless opening" because last time i played with him when he was town he raged because he wanted to be mafia, and i wanted to know what's his reasoning for opening the game differently this time. By saying what i did about thrawn i wanted to make him uncomfortable in case he is scum, and i also promised to have a clear read on him later on on D1 which should help you guys figure out my alignment. So what's wrong with those things? | ||

It is meaningful to me because you are saying some of my posts worry you and therefore you don't have a town read on me. You are not straight out calling me mafia, but you imply so. When i ask you to clarify you say i posted useless shit and that i am too cavalier. When i ask you how does that make me any alignment you don't have an answer. When i clarify my posts that bothered you you call the conversation meaningless. What exactly were you trying to achieve with your first post? Because to me it looks like there was no purpose as you think the discussion is meaningless as you just said. Why are you making useless posts? | ||

CC uses like ~15 posts in interacting with Artanis and after that gives a read on gumshoe and even a null read on WoS who has posted once, maybe twice. What was the point of discussing shit with Artanis as CC didn't even try to form a read on him. Artanis did the same with gumshoe. Fuckton of interaction that ends up with calling gumshoe scummy but then again maybe not. | ||

I take it you're leaning scum on Gumshoe atm because you posted that gumshoe was talking about something not being alignment indicative and that he gains scumpoints. Gumshoe you are once again the topic of day 1 discussion! Congrats! I can only hope that this leads to good things this time around :D It ends in a disagreement and neither of those guys bring that up any more and neither of them have a read on each other. | ||

So hopefully he doesn't go and fuck it up like he did in that game. 1 down Gumshoe Town 11 to go see you all tomorrow iamperfection how is this different than what gumshoe does in his scumgames? If this is a meta-read you should probably elaborate on that too because it's kinda.. the point of a meta-read, what someone does differently as town/scum.

![]() He didn't say "hi" to the thread. That's like a scumclaim. j/k, i dunno about JAT. Actually no, i think yamato is town. There is some sort of a process going on in his head on his read on me. When he is scum there is no process, he just posts some stuff and tryhard reads or does not post anything. Dunno about bugs either, have never played with him. I have some super secret scumreads but i am waiting for all people to post. | ||

The bolded quote is proof of that. If he claims otherwise he is lying and there is no reason to lie about that as town. After that i ask thrawn what was his read on me and why i became null after his answer. He refused to answer, he still refuses to answer. There is no reason to refuse to answer unless he has no answers. He does have an answer (of his own thought process) if he is town. Therefore he is scum, it's the only possibility. | ||

Like, as town, you do stuff that helps you figuring out other people's alignments. Therefore you don't ask questions that can have null-answers, or at least questions where the answer is expected to be null by default. As scum, you want to look like you are doing that but you actually are not because you don't want to "confirm" townies to you or other townies as in the end that gives yourself away. To me that looks like you were doing stuff that looks like you were doing stuff but that didn't have any intention behind it, which makes it far more likely to come from mafia. | ||

Well then you should not post when you are under influence. I stopped posting drunk when i realized that's a fucking terrible idea. yamato even asked you to stop posting last night when you told us you are stoned. WoS: I try to elaborate as well as i can onto yamato. What yamato does as mafia is two things. He does not play for an all game plan. He plays for (1) survival, usually lurks, and (2) fuels arguments between townies. 1 and 2 are important, usually lurking is something that's not so important as he is able to change that if he wants to. 1) This can be seen in GoT, where i played scum with him. We had a game plan from the beginning but yamato's mindset was pretty much "i won't get lynched on D1". I don't remember he was doing much else than trying to survive D2. 2) This can be seen from 4 Persona, where yamato's pure purpose was to fuel me vs you argument until it ended up in a townie lynch. After that he discredited me for all D2, but when i basically solved the game on N2 he had no other option than to night kill me, even though i lynched a cop on D1 and had a red check on me. That's how "confident" yamato feels his scumplay is. What he has done in this game is neither of those things. | ||

I dunno Rayn it's like I said to WBG, I am not particularly good at meta, and I very rarely see it getting used well so I can't really take reads solely based on meta into account. I see what yamato has done in this game, and it's scummy. It's not scummy, it's "not caring". That's not necessarily scummy, especially for yamato who has been not caring as town many times at the start of the game. | ||

If he fails to do so, or does scummy stuff when he starts playing, then we can revisit Cora's argument about yamato<->me and re-think "hmm.. maybe yamato could do that as mafia, what was he in fact doing there?". But right now it's not scummy, maybe you can consider it null, but i'd lean town on him for what he has done and what he usually does as scum. | ||

If you don't, you deserve to get lynched because you (incorrectly) accuse of WBG not playing the game and then you yourself refuse to play the game. | ||

Although I don't know if it was because he was scum or busy or what (I assume a combination of both) but he lurked to the point where he got replaced, then his replacement won the game for him and his team basically. (not like the replacement really did anything either, though). On day 1 we almost lynched him, but switched and lynched someone else who happened to also flip scum. We need to consolidate on yamato as long as he continues to be worthless. He's not completely useless as town and it's incredibly scummy for him to come back only when pressured simply to post one line and leave again. As for Cora, if he routinely plays like this (something that I will try to confirm for myself later, probably early tomorrow when I wake up) then he's probably not scum since there are ways one can justify his play from a town perspective. It's hard, but doable. However he's still a reasonable alternate choice if something drastic changes with regards to yamato. I don't think this is a right way to go, because yamato already promised to contribute. When someone does that you leave them alone to make them feel comfortable (in case they are scum) and focus on other people. If yamato does not contribute, he claims scum and we can vote him at the end of the day. If we vote for yamato now, regardless of his alignment, noone else is pressured and while townies should not stop contributing even when there is a clear thread sentiment that's unfortunately not the general line of thinking. Placing votes on yamato will kill the discussion to some extent, people are more likely to contribute if they are under pressure. yamato was already under pressure and promised to contribute, that pressure has achieved what it's purpose was. | ||

Yamato did something incredibly scummy-he reentered the thread and promptly disappeared. If he was town he'd be here arguing for his innocence and providing us with proper reads. It's much easier to read someone when they are actively present rather than afk. As at the very least a decent player yamato knows that. I've seen him play town myself. If he's not making sense or contributing to town he needs to die, and taking our votes off and moving them just because he gave us a promise is not a good way to ensure that we'll actually have the ability to kill him when the lynch deadline comes around. Okay so what do you expect the town gains if we all put our votes on yamato now? He has done what he has done, that does not change. some people find it scummy some people don't. That does not change regardless of how many votes are on him. However putting votes on him does not allow the town to pressure other people. I don't care if this has worked or not worked in other games because i can tell you for sure i will not forget arguments and people's promises and i sure as hell will confromt yamato when he comes back to the thread. Why this is incredibly scummy thinking is because of there are at least you and iamp in the game who are generally considered better players than me. Also yamato, Artanis, WoS, thrawn etc.. *Notice this is not supposed to be an insult to anyone and does not represent my thoughts because i obviously think i am the best mafia on the planet*. If i am generally not considered to be in top 2 of players in this game stating that i should be policy lynched on D3 if i am alive is a way of saying "i refuse to give my opinions on rayn and i will already set up an arbitary read on him regardless of what he does - a read that becomes "valid" at some point of the game". | ||

One would assume that cora actually perceived the shitflinging, or at least believes that we could interpret what he's said as shitflinging, but that's not at all a part of my opinion of him. My opinion involves him validating his accusation by comparing iamp's actions to a different scum player in a different game. Saying he's shitflinging and following it up by saying he seems scummy is fine. Saying it's scummy because this other scum did it in another game gives me the impression he finds his own argument weak. Like this is literally one of the towniest thought processes there are in thread and incredibly hard to fake as scum, especially considering we are talking about fuba here, who's not played scum much (maybe once or twice?). | ||

Okay so do you think it's reasonable to lose your train of thought in 14 minutes as thrawn is suggesting happened? Also do you buy his explanation of being too stoned and how does it make sense because before the argument yamato politely asked thrawn to not post if he does not have a clear head? | ||

Regardless of your alignment you either think my case is not good or for some other reason you did not want to comment on it. When i specifically asked you to comment on it you didn't even remember the case and wanted me to point out where the case was. That suggests to me you are not reading the thread closely (as you did not remember the case at all) which means you are lazy, or that you for some reason didn't want to either +1 my case or tell me you think the case is bad or does not make thrawn mafia. If it is "for some reason" i can't think of a townie reason and if you were not lazy i think you are scum. | ||

How do I have to point that out to you? Like wtf is this? Just because I don't comment or agree with you I immediately must be working against you? Lemme try to be as clear as possible as i think you have misuderstood something. Here's what happened. I made a case on thrawn. you did not comment on it in any way. That's not necessarily alignment indicative, but i wanted to know what you thought about the case because it helps me in getting a better read on you and to some extent on thrawn by proxy, as i could be making a bad case, but in any way i think my case is important because otherwise i would not have made it. I am expecting one of three different answers: 1) "I think your case is good, i agree with it." In this case you are probably scum because if you thought the case was good then why did i need to prod you into answering it in the first place? 2) "I think your case is not good, i disagree with it because of XYZ." In this case i consider if your reasons for debunking my case are good enough which makes you town, or if they are bullshit in which case you are scum. 3) "What case?" In this case you are clearly not reading the thread properly because by default, if you have read the thread, you would remember i have made a case on thrawn. This could be because you are lazy and just didn't read the thread or you are mafia and for some reason are avoiding to comment on the case. The answer you gave me was (3). Okay, next thing i want to know is if you are lazy or scum. I point out where the case is and ask you to comment on it. Then we go back to (1) or (2), with same outcomes, but with a difference that if you give answer (1) you are definitely scum because townies never forget there was a good case in thread and not comment on it. If you give answer (2) i don't know if you are scum or town, because i can't be sure if you were just lazy or if you are lying about not reading properly and just did not want to comment on it. So, my conclusion is, that you were lazy or that you are bullshitting and you are mafia. It's impossible to tell which one is true. However, i told you to not be lazy any more if you are town because that's not how townies should play, so if you are lazy in the future i am inclined to think you are not playing towards town's win condition and are scum. If you do scummy stuff in the future this argument between us should be revisited and re-examined and judged amongst other things you have done in this game. Right now it is a null tell. That's my thought process. Hope you understand. | ||

I dunno Rayn it's like I said to WBG, I am not particularly good at meta, and I very rarely see it getting used well so I can't really take reads solely based on meta into account. I see what yamato has done in this game, and it's scummy. I think atm this is the only post/argument that could make WoS scum. He does not explain how what yamato has done in this game is scummy. Because yamato hasn't done anything besides argued with me up to this point. So where the scumread is based on? Lurker lynch? No, because WoS said yamato is scummy. Meta? No, because WoS said he's not good at meta so he does not use it. So exactly why is what yamato has done up to this point of the game scummy? I agree with your read on iamp to some extent. Not confident enough to say he is scum but want to see more from him - especially now that you started contributing. | ||

Nor does he seem interested in trying to figure out many people's alignments in this game. Much of his filter, like Cora's, is comprised of "lynch yamato because he's lurking" which is just not good justification. This, atm it seems to me as well iamp is trying to find a lynch, not figuring out alignments. | ||

If I had to pick, I feel least confident about Cora because, well, he is really whiney this game and his town play isn't exactly a gold standard of excellence. The problem with Corazon is he uses arguments like "WBG is mafia because he refuses to play the game". First of all if he did read between the lines what WBG said there was: "I am pressuring yamato to contribute. This is also a message to every player in this game i want everyone to contribute. If you don't, you are scum, because there is no reason for a townie to talk and interact with people. My vote however does not mean i won't do shit, which i prove to you here Corazon, by asking you about your reads and stuff". Somehow Corazon twists this into "I have done much more than you so don't tell me i have not done shit - you are scum because you haven't done shit and you are not trying to play the game". Okay, i could see that coming from town Corazon, he could think so. But when i make a case on thrawn, he does not apparently even read the case (or if he does - he misrepresents it totally - which makes him scum). He calls the case OMGUS and the argument between me and thrawn a "shitstorm which will ruin the town". This is totally not the case. He shuts down a case based on incorrect things and stupid assumptions and refuses to contribute towards the case in itself. When asked to do so multiple times he still refuses to do so, but instead he calls thrawn town for other reasons (hint: that's an entirely incorrect way to play mafia and fucking scummy). Not only that, when i ask for his reasons for calling thrawn town (what Corazon sees as thrawn's contributions to scumhunting) he again refuses to answer and instead says he won't answer because of the pressure that's on him. Again, fucking scummy. TLDR; He (incorrectly) calls WBG mafia for not playing the game when in fact it's him who is not playing the game. He repeatedly refuses to explain his logic (which should be very easy thing to do for a town player) - something that is a foundation in proving your own towniness and therefore reducing the suspect pool. In addition to that he shuts down cases with no reasoning which equals shutting down the discussion which equals not playing the game, which is a scumtell by his own definition. And that's my case on him. | ||

Symptoms appear to be gone as of now, though, so I'm hoping my activity will pick up as we move into N1. Only thing I have to say at the moment is that I'm still up for a Cora lynch. I assume that my posts about him make me one of the people "taking all of his posts and twisting them into lies," but he hasn't responded to what I've said in any way, even though numerous people have agreed at various times throughout the day that it's a valid point. Wish I could participate more in discussion, but I've got about 6 hours before I have to be up again for class, and I'd like to fill it with as much sleep as possible. I should be free for a few hours leading up to the deadline. tbh at the time you made the comment about Corazon i was looking forward to his answer because the argument in itself does not make Corazon mafia and is not even necessarily scummy (depending on his answer). Instead it tells more about your alignment as you were clearly trying to figure out the game and thinking in a townie way. Could you comment on things that have happened in the last pages? | ||

I don't think he's mafia but it's hard to find concrete reasons to call him town. The one thing i find out scummy about thrawn is what i said in my case. It's the exact same thing he did in the last game, said stuff that he hadn't thought through (at least it seemed so). Like i can understand him being stoned and not remembering what he did the day before but i am not sure if i buy him losing his train of thought in 14 minutes (yes, it was 14 minutes between the argument and his refusal to answering me and moving on to other things). Imo the point of him being "not at his best" is not a valid defense because regardless of your mindset you do think of stuff, let it be a stupid way or a good way. Also he used a same way of "discrediting the argument" he did in his last scum game. Hope you get what i am trying to say. Being not in a "right mindset to play mafia" does not mean "i did not have a thought process at all" because it's impossible to not have a thought process regardless of or your alignment. | ||

But in this game, the case is that he's slightly less coherent? I don't see a big enough distinction between his play in this game and in his past town games to accept this read. This is something i really dislike. Even the worst scumplayer in the world does not slip in every post and has townie posts.

Your vote on WoS was reasonable because i thought the same thing you and kush did when you reacted to his post. The thing i find scummy is when WoS interacted with people after that you retracted from the vote back to yamato for reasons that were "well at least WoS is here talking but yamato is not". If you really thought WoS is scummy why didn't you keep your vote on him and pressure him about his scummy post(s)? This is exactly what i was trying to say to WBG, you did the exact thing i was worried about people voting for yamato when he earlier on promised to contribute when he had more time. To me that seems like you did not even care about WoS' alignment, because why would you not keep your vote on him if you think he did something scummy? Why did you not want to hear more from him? If you give him a "free pass" by rectracting your pressure/vote what does that achieve? | ||

Or is this something specifically attributed to Corazon? If anyone has a scum corazon game on hand I'd like to see it. @Cora I want you to calm down. Give us your top scumreads with 2-3 reasons why for each. Honestly the sense is just strew apart in the thread, maybe it's there if I can get a consolidated post. You've been a bitch to me already for no reason, and I have no problem lynching you. If you're town I want the best reads you can give me. Yamato - I think he's town. Based on extractor I don't see a reason he cant be town here, and lynching him day 1 is probably a mistake. JAT - leaning scum. When I was arguing with rayn about the semantic thing (which, by the way, people have to stop saying shit thats confusing) he jumped right on with a few posts to bolster the argument which was clearly false. I also didn't like how he fought with bugs about the kush thing. It also looks like he misinterpreted my-artanis interaction at the beginning of the day which didn't make sense to me. Rayn - Probably town, though Idk what rayn scum looks like. He tunnels on cora and bullshits at him which is fine (well.. w.e.). I am really hesitant about listening to his reasoning after extractor. Thrawn - looks town, would bang. Artanis - Idk where the hell he went after voting me for crap reasons. Tunneled onto me for similarly crap reasons. Would lynch if anyone is down. So right now I'm looking at JAT/Artanis or a policy of cora/kush. - Read on yamato is not a read. "I can't see why he can't be town" - Read on JAT is so bullshit it probably comes out of CC's ears. That's the worst reasoning for a read i have seen in this game because every single thing is so wrong. - Read on me is not a read. Discrediting me for bullshit reasons, i would have lynched mafia on D2 if idiots didn't hammer yamato. - Read on thrawn is bullshit. - Read on Artanis is bullshit because CC did scummy stuff, then Artanis called him out for it. After that CC changed his reasoning to something else, but later on went back to the original reasoning for no reason. It's just so stupid and every other post the reasoning for Artanis being mafia changes from one thing to another. | ||

I dunno, when i started playing mafia i read Palmar's comment on who to blame when a townie gets mislynched. I have been mislynched exactly 4 times in my ~55 town games, in 3 of them i basically intentionally killed myself because i did not want to play anymore and one time i could not convince the town i was town because someone made a case on me after i lynched mafia on D2 "you must be bussing, so we should kill you and then we should kill the mafia's counter-wagon, obviously you are both bussing, no other option kthxbye". I could not argue against that shitlogic because everyone in town used the same shitlogic. Whose fault? My fault. | ||

1) establish your innocence 2) try to lynch mafia and only that town would win every game. When you have a town that works together the town wins. When people are clear in their thoughts and clarify their thought process. When you have people who only post half-assed comments, people who claim that they will not play, and people who are clearly not reading the thead and refuse to cooperate you already know you are going to lose the game if those people are alive at the end of the game. It doesn't even fucking matter if they are town, because they do not play towards town's win condition regardless of their alignment. That's why those people get lynched, that's why i get angry, and that's why people hate me, because when i get angry i become mean towards those people - i can't stand people who sign up to games and don't even try to play. If you can post 2 posts / day phase and have time for no more do not fucking use that time to argue about semantics or something irrelevant, read the thread and make one coherent case on your top scumread and try to push it. That's it, even if you are wrong or miss some other stuff or fail to consolidate it shows you have a clear opinion and you stand behind it. If you give 8 half-assed reads which are not even reads or are not explained or that make no sense given what's actually happened in the game you are not trying to get scum lynched, you are trying to do something you can't possibly achieve if you are town. Who cares who is your #4 scumread, who cares if you do not like player X. You are here to lynch mafia and not for telling who is a cool guy and who is not. And then people say, after doing that, "but i had no time to play". It makes me see red. | ||

It's clear he's not going to contribute, as he's said nothing of original value despite showing in past games that he has the capability and despite being around practically all the time. Basically this, and yes, i actually think Corazon is mafia, so i am not policy lynching here. | ||

I don't want him to die, but I haven't seen anything to make me feel confident about that. He's capable of quality posts as both alignments. I wasn't even going to bring this up because it's so inconsequential, but you asked. Lecturing about how to play mafia is not alignment indicative in my opinion and it only tells you how that person should be playing. If they don't play like that they are playing against their own "rules of playing town" and they are probably scum. | ||

mkfuba07 - if he started the game by making a good logical thought process on his scumbuddy then i am amazed. gumshoe - has clear thoughts and i totally disagree with WBG about his post near the deadline, i can't see scum making that post. yamato77 - don't have to worry about him in a long time iamperfection - leaning town on because of his posts towards Cora at the EOD and his willingness to let go of his tunnel on yamato justanothertownie - had some good posts and i especially liked him commenting mainly on Corazon when he got back and there were multiple wagons. some of his posts are not that good and i think he is focusing on wrong / minor non-alignment indicative things a lot, but should prove his towniness if town later on. kushm4sta - being really dumb or scum, at the moment it's impossible to say which Artanis[Xp] - inactive, not much to say, case on CC was fine, interested in seeing where he is headed next WaveofShadow - some stuff is good, some stuff is bad, some stuff is terribad. need moar wherebugsgo - case to come before deadline thrawn2112 - case to come before deadline | ||

I know you are perfectly capable of making good logical arguments and reads as town. In 4 Persona you were the town MVP from N2 onwards. In Titanic 2 i shot you over Blazinghand/Artanis/Xatalos/three other people because you looked so town and because i thought you were most likely to solve the game after DarthPunk. I also know you are not capable of making good logical arguments as mafia, because you just can't put yourself into the right mindset which is pretty evident from Extractor game. Therefore your alignment is pretty easy to figure out and now, when the thread is not moving fast is a perfect time to prove your alignment if you are town. So please do so, for me. | ||

He has a case on Cheesecake. I ask him to contribute to thrawn/WoS/Corazon. He says Corazon is the scummiest of those three people, gives a few scumpoints to WoS aswell, and doesn't understand thrawn's "scumminess". In this post: On January 08 2014 21:14 Artanis[Xp] wrote: I like this point. I also like this point. Scumpointsᵀᴹ to Cora. I agree here though I'd need to filter dive WoS again. I'm not sure this is something he'd do as town especially after being so active. I can't really comment on the Thrawn case because I have no idea what the effects of drugs are as I've never really used them myself. In a vacuum it looks scummy as shit and I haven't really been impressed by the rest of his play. Dunno when I'll be back, but I'll try to find time before the deadline. He agrees with my reasoning for WoS to possibly be mafia (as he gives him scumpoints). The reasoning is WoS' "bullshit stance" on yamato which is quite clear from my post. However, when the thread sentiment leans towards lynching Corazon here's what Artanis does: On January 09 2014 01:07 Artanis[Xp] wrote: I'd be willing to lynch Yamato but I'd rather get CC.

As an example, after the flip - yamato was really happy and was going around calling himself almost confirmed town, saying the wagon can't have been scum/scum, basically strutting about in a pretty cute way. bugs called this "very scummy". Well... maybe in isolation, because maybe a mafia could do that. But generally speaking, yamato's tone and confidence in his own townieness strongly indicated that he was town. What yamato was doing was not 'very scummy' at all, in fact it was a reasonably strong town indicator. Towns are generally more likely to be confident in their own towniness. Even more than this, townies are more likely to think they look townier than they are for the wrong reasons (Toad is the perfect example of someone who always does this) Same with what bugs said about gumshoe, bugs calling him "scummy as shit" for coming in last minute, doing some silly long reads post and not voting Cora. See yeah, on the surface that's pretty bad. But actually gumshoe was so blitheringly, moronically (no offence) unaware of what was going on, what gumshoe did was more likely to come from town. What mafia player, when he sees his scumbuddy claim scum, doesn't think his scumbuddy is claiming scum? That's a really unnatural mindset. Far more likely to be dopey townie.

This is an interesting point. I have always considered it (obviously) from only my perspective, as i assume people are capable of thinking about scum/town motives and i feel like when i do stuff like that i am ALWAYS able to explain why, and why that is the only explanation (town motive) for what i do.
