Aqua was like 'Jay has been contributing' and when I called him out and asked him what Jay's contributions were Aqua just kinda shrugged it off.

Look, the thing with analysing Jay's contributions to this game is that you have to forget about the question "Is this a good contribution?" and ask the question "Is this a contribution he believes?".

His case on Koshi at the start was, I agree, almost completely without merit in terms of persuading me to vote for Koshi. Indeed, it's so unconvincing that I do have serious doubts about his alignment. Same for his reasons for voting Alakaslam. But the fact remains that he did vote for people, and made an argument why other people should vote for them too. And that's a contribution.

The real question I'm asking myself here is "Is it possible Jay is a townie who in fact believes the cases he's made and is honestly trying to push lynches on who he believes is scum?". To which my answer is "maybe". And I'm a fair bit more confident than "maybe" about Jonny.

Jay's vote is on me right now. How do you explain that.

He got mad at you, voted you, then AFKd.

The answer is no.

He said Koshi was scum, refused to provide a read. Then later came back and said Koshi is null.
He voted slam as basically a policy lynch.
He voted me as an OMGUS.

He's not pushing lynches and getting reads from him is like pulling teeth.

He gave his reason for his read on Koshi. I reckon it was a bad reason and probably the only reason he believes it (if he does) is that Koshi had just voted for him. And I don't see how changing his mind later about that is scummy.

As for his Alakaslam vote... I can think of a couple words to describe this reason for voting Alak, but I don't see how you can describe it as policy specifically. Can you explain this to me?

I don't like this post. Alakaslam looks like he is thinking about calling me out as scum. But the way he does it is all wrong. I made this post and I said how I wouldn't give as much advice and just policy lynch lurkers. So he takes it to the extreme. This is the only post I believe from memory that I said anything about policy lynching lurkers. And out of my entire filter he picks it out and starts talking about how if i'm advocating policy lynches then I should be following thru or my motives are questioned (that I would be scummy.)

But this isn't how a townie should be thinking. A townie should be going after there scum reads and then if that doesn't pan out go for a scummy lurker or lurker lynch. I had made a case on Koshi and a push on him. If anything Alakaslam would be reading the thread and seeing if I was pushing my scum suspect and scum hunting. However he acts like the one post I mention about policy lynching lurkers means that's solely what I should be doing.

@jaybrundage, that implies that you were thinking something, so what was it that you were thinking before you came to that conclusion?


Legitimate question.

Jay, since you're 0.29% more likely to be scum than me, and since you were the top 2 Day 1 lynch in the previous game, how do you plan to play differently in order to avoid being targeted for lynch this game?

It might be a rough game. I tryharded the shit out of last game. And jonny wanted to lynch me cause I was "acting" like town.
I guess the first thing would be too not give as much advice this game.

1. Because I said it last game.

2. Because now I can just policy lynch lurkers cause they have been warned :D

I want to just say scum hunt more. But its not easy too early day 1. Maybe more pressure less advice for the early day.

Thing about lurker lynches. You can advocate them but if you don't follow through your motives should be questioned... Has Jaybrundage voted for me yet?

... Who is he voting? If anyone has been lurking I have been, he should be pushing me according to this policy.

More as I feel the desire to comment on it.



As for his vote on you, I can see how you might well have pissed him off. Which is again not a great reason to vote someone, but it happens.

What? he's not saying you're confirmed town, he's saying you're going to be sad when he flips green. How is this a slip at all?

The question is "why would Koshi be sad when Jonny flips town, if Koshi is scum like Jonny has been claiming?"

Aquanim. I would like to talk mmmate. What do you think of Suki? Do you have any opinion on if we should try to get the vig to shoot someone via vote or something similar. What do you think of Coag wanting Vig to shoot him.

oh hey I wandered off to play dota, sorry

On Suki:
Trolly and more importantly content-free start to the game set off serious alarm bells for me at the time. I'm not yet sure how much weight to give that phase of the game as opposed to her greater amount of content later.

Hopeless said it very well here:

I agree that suki hasnt been playing scummy but I still have this nagging feeling about her. I'll try to look into why later tonight.

Suki's been contributing her thoughts to the thread and trying to push a lynch but... something feels a little weird.

I should have a better thought-out opinion on Suki later.

-----//-----

If we have a vigilante, they can do what they please. I have better things to do than direct blue roles.

-----//-----

Coag wanting a vigilante to shoot him is... bizarre, I'm not sure what to make of that. That slot wouldn't be a bad vigilante shot (alak and Coag aren't the most readable of players, and replacement slots are annoying at best), but calling for a shot on himself is some weird shit. tl;dr I have no idea.

Do you have any theories about Coag asking for a shot on himself? Town/scum motivations for it?

These aren't my best thought-out reads ever, but I have some faith that if I get shot here you guys will be fine anyway.

On Suki:
+ Show Spoiler +

Points for town:
  • Pushed scumreads (Sidesprang, JayB) in the thread
  • Seems to be trying to draw information into the thread e.g. here, here
    Both of these she did as scum in LI I guess, but I'd be deeply suspicious if they weren't here. Moving on.
  • Scumread on JayB was kind of reasonable, his cases on Koshi and Alak definitely looked incredibly sketchy
  • Posts feel... well, natural. Suki seemed genuinely aggreived that the thread sentiment was against her point of view. (e.g. here, here)


Points for scum:
  • Pushed a different wagon to a scum lynch. Pretty basic one here.
  • Didn't back off jayB even after the blue soft-claim.


Well, to be honest, those lists didn't help me much. Anyway...

I don't feel like the blue-claim argument is a slam-dunk on Suki. In Newbie XXXI I remember pushing a lynch on Oatsmaster, and continuing to push it after he straight-up claimed doctor because I didn't believe him. I was mislynched there, for that among other reasons. Back to the point - I think it's a valid point against Suki but not conclusive.


Conclusion: Still not entirely convinced either way, though I have a nagging feeling that she's town. I certainly want to see lynches other than Suki at least considered tomorrow.

On Alakaslam/Coagulation:
+ Show Spoiler +


Points for town:
  • Alak appeared to be putting some thought into the game: here, here


Points for scum:
  • Alak didn't push any cases or ask any questions really... not like he had the opportunity, though.
  • Dodged discussion of the lynch, but if he was still reading... meh.
  • I drank the wine in front of me re. Coag's plea to be vig-shot, and it tasted scummy. The post is weird, but it feels (marginally) more natural to me as a scum posting that to make a vigilante second-guess themselves. This is very marginal and your mileage may vary. Or, on the other hand, maybe he just wants out of the game and the post was sincere - also possible.
  • This post. I have no idea what my name is doing next to Oats, LM and Sidesprang.



I would look for any more scum in Oatsmaster, Sidesprang and Hopeless, probably in that order. Maybe LoneMeow too, but I got some reasonable town-feels from him.

Everybody else I'm fairly confident is town. If JayB's blueclaim falls through maybe re-examine him.

EBWOP: That's missing a conclusion on Coag.

Conclusion: It wouldn't suprise me if this slot flipped scum, though I am quite aware I can't read Coag to save my life and I'm hardly much better at reading Alak.

More likely them than me/oats/coag.

Coag is full null so the hat eating does not count for him. Oats can be included though.

Still confused. Are you saying you think Oats is town? Can you explain why?

At a skim, he goes from JayB->JonnyLaw->me->Suki->sidesprang. Can't sit still, pursuing everything he sees for the most part.

He completely glances over JonnyLaw and me, but volunteered reads/reasons for the other 3. I think he's town.

This post is more-or-less accurate. In the hypothetical case where Oats is scum and Suki is town, I can easily see Oats jumping on this though.

THIS post, however, is pretty shitty. Suki had in fact tried to explain why she saw JayB's tryhardness as scummy, and had briefly explained why the Koshi case was bad (not that it needed explaining, hence why I'm comfortable with it being brief).

##vote Suki


I skimmed JayB's case and didn't like it. I don't see the point in meta reading someone off of their pre-game content, or meta reading them 2 hours into the game as the game is still getting started.

What threw me off was that he put in a ton of effort trying to find every little thing he could in order to paint Koshi as scum. He basically became super sure that Koshi was scum off of a weak case. He had already stated that he was going to scum hunt and he was hunting so hard it just felt forced and contrived.

In other words, I didn't care about the case that he made, or the fact that it was made early, I cared about what motivations he could have had when making that case. Does it make more sense for town to hard tunnel someone off a weak case and try to make them look scummy, or does it make more sense for scum? The fact that the case was made so early is just a bonus point against a town scum-hunting mindset.

In my opinion, it's more scummy to take this line of action. Thus I voted Jay.


On Koshi

Koshi has talked the talk. He just needs to walk the walk.

His attitude is different in this game than last. He's more confident and more 'willing' to be active and contribute.

If he doesn't hold up his end of the deal then he's an easy lynch.

Other than that he hasn't done anything so I am waiting for his contributions when he returns.



Furthermore, making a subjective case is not a scumtell and I have no idea why Oats would think it is.

tl;dr I am not in any way convinced of Oats' towniness by his reasons for voting Suki.
