My own tl;dr of Balla's post: scum suki is too confident, not enough paranoia not enough second guessing.
I need to sleep I'll take a look through this games' suki filter and give my thoughts on it when I wake up.

In the meantime, you can rest assured that Lord Koshi of Koshington will be there to protect you King Balla

Oats why isn't your vote on me?

Jay is objectively scummy and I'm happy where my vote is.

what. I think you dont understand the meaning of 'objectively' scummy. You havent explained anything about his tryhardness making him scum or why his case was bad, or why his stuff is forced. Like half this shit is subjective.
##VOTE SUKI
WAGON OF JUSTICE

This is the most succinct point about suki's early game. From the moment jayb pushes koshi she's jumps to call him scum for tryharding without addressing the validity of the case against koshi at all.




I severely dislike suki's meta of sidesprang. For one thing, his scum game was a 51-player setup. Sidesprang died Night 6 and had a 1 page filter over the course of the almost 150 page game.

On February 07 2014 14:50 suki wrote:
He asks 'Are you basing your scum read on Suki just off meta atm?' then spends two large posts talking about how my meta is different and basically soft-defending me.

I'm used to sidesprang asking tough questions, questions whose answers have meaning. It's kind of subtle but I feel like if sidesprang really cared about Aquanim's answer he would have waited for Aqua's reply.

Go check sidesprang's filter to verify this claim. I assert that it is a false representation of sidesprang's filter.

On February 07 2014 14:50 suki wrote:
The other thing I noticed is that when he talked about Jay, he talked directly to Jay 'Regarding your Koshi case.. you better get more meat on it ... I think it's too early to call you scum...'

jayb and sprang were having a direct conversation with one another. There is nothing suspicious here.




On February 07 2014 14:54 suki wrote:
In the previous game Jay also didn't write giant cases like the one he wrote here. One of the big problems we had with him is that he talked too much policy and didn't scum hunt enough.

Obviously he's changed his style, but he's done a complete 180. And my gut says it feels more forced than it should be, but if you don't see it then we can agree to disagree.

Jay was damn near lynched last game. I will concede that I do find jay scummy, but this is not the reason why. Changing his style when he explicitly said he was going to change his style is not scummy. Tunnel vision - Check.


On February 07 2014 15:14 suki wrote:
lol get off my case Oats.

I told you why I thought Jay's play was forced and why I think it's scummy and you don't agree with it. What else am I going to do?

His case against Koshi is BAD. Seriously. Koshi is scum because he's not happy?

Tell me why you think his case against Koshi is good and maybe we can have a decent discussion.

The case being BAD had zero bearing on suki's read on jayb earlier. Why the sudden shift in reasoning? The exact same evidence was present but suki generates a secondary reason for the same read when pressured by Oats. Do not like it.

What do people think about lynching slam or LoneMeow for pulling the same 24 hour disappearance trick that Hopeless did in the previous game?

I know that slam can check the game from his phone and has no qualms about posting from his phone. This behaviour is not typical of either of them.

If suki is scum I'm damn near certain one of those two is as well. Trying to push the lynch onto zero-post lurkers is super scummy. The "feeling" of hey look I was totally right about the lurkers was a heavy draw for me last game to lightly throw pressure onto sidesprang. That is what this post reminds me of, a light bus attempt.

Ok, so a lot of things going on. I agree we should not let lurkers stay silent, and should poke anyone that stays silent for to long. But there is a lot of value in not spamming down the thread if you are town, that will only make the scummy post harder to see. I'm mainly looking at you Xatalos, as you are on your third page in filter with like half of the post being oneliners. Even if town you will be detrimental to the town if you keep this up! There are others aswell, just used you as an example.


--------

About Cora there are a few things I did not like and caught my eye. His opening post is not good, and if he's mafia hes basically just buying himself an excuse to lurk for day 1 and then come out day 2 and bring chaos onto the town.

He also deflected a lot in his defence and basically just said "look at X he's scummier than me".

And lastly he asked for people to vote for him if they found him scummy, which is very Anti-Town.


I do not feel cora is mafia yet at least, but definetly worth to look at.



-------

@Kish, can anyone that have played with him earlier say something about how he plays. He is deffo playing the most anti town atm, but he's also doing it on purpose which is frustrating.



This is pretty much his first post in the game. Notice he writes a short thing about policy and then starts scum hunting.

Most of his posts in this game are scum hunting, but I didn't find many difficult questions in this one.

Why so eager to have people help you achieve your goals? Maybe they don't agree with them.

Also having people fight can cause confusion in the town. So I don't see a reason why people should just help you achieve your goals.



You don't see a reason why people should help Bella with creating a "tough environment for mafia to hide in and lynch some mafia" ?

Be analytical. I'm already feeling a bit weird with thechyz but it's preliminary obviously and i'm waiting for him to post some more.


@ onlywonderboy

atm he is just null for me. from his PoV he has only stated obvious things so far. It not really contributing atm, but its to early to fault him for that. And he does say he is going to more active and contribute with meaningfull analysis, so as long as he atleast tries to do this we should be able to read him in the future.

@ thechyz,

I don't like him atm. In his first post he says he agrees with you and dont mind lynching lurkers to discourage lurking. But then in his second post he says he see no reason to why people should help you achivieving that same agenda he just agreed with. Feels very much like a contradiction to me.





This is his third post in the game and he's pointing out contradictions.

Miller in TL Mafia XX
He spends most of the game apologizing for his low post quantity.

scum in TL Mafia XVIII
Like sidesprang pointed out, this scum game is from 4 years ago, something that I didn't think about as I was just looking through past games and not noticing the date. Regardless, I'll include some posts here to show where my line of thought came from in my case that I wrote up.

L's point about beeing 20 mafia and that it will take a long time before we get two different clues on a single mafia i dont really think is true.

Last game i was in there was 8 mafia and they had 3kp. meaning at day 3 we in the worst case scenario had 1 mafia with double clues.

In this game there is 20 mafia and 6 KP, meaning in the worst case we would have 4 double clues at day 4. But you with there beeing possible 12 mafia kills and 2 lynces one should think/hope that some mafia would die, and we get double clues at day 3 again.

Spamming the thread full of what shit? Posting an objective compilation of everyones arguments? Compiling voting history? Defending myself when redtooth and Ace accused me of being mafia? Finally getting Bill Murray to justify his statements? Don't put me on the same level as BM TT___TT

I guess for the time being Empyrean is our best bet. Ver did a great job of pointing out the inconsistency in his pro-town/mafia behavior from past games and the clue connection is just very very very very strong.

Redtooth did a decent job of defending himself, or at least why it doesn't make sense that he and Ace are both in the same mafia family. His argument for him and ace not being in different mafia families doesn't make sense. "Why would mafia defend a mafia from another family/not mafia"

Unless he wanted to discourage clue analysis because he fears it will hurt his mafia family, or wanted to defend Ace because regardless of Ace's role his argumentation is successfully dividing the town. If redtooth is mafia, he has no way of knowing Ace's role anyway, so saying "i wouldn't defend another families mafia" makes no sense because he doesn't know who those people are. I really doubt the mafia are going to ONLY defend one another, look what happened when I got lynched in the last game. By analyzing who I defended/supported/whose clues I ignored the entire rest of the mafia family was caught.

I'm not accusing you of being mafia redtooth, I'm just pointing out that the argument falls short.

I'm voting for L because so far his arguments have been extremely consistent, he's been trying to get the town moving/discouraging waste posts, and providing excellent clue analysis. Redtooth shouldn't have a problem with this, don't you want L as the other elected role anyway?
you're right. actually that's exactly what i want you to do. i want L as mayor and i want to be pardoner. no vigilantes means pardoner is very very powerful if he is mafia.

as for my argument in why it's sort of illogical for ace and me to be mafia in separate families is because consider the alternative: i could have silently held back and not brought attention to myself instead of being in the middle of controversy between the town. knowing previous games, L vs Ace was going to become a shitstorm whether i stepped in or not. instead i chose to argue a point, blew my top (admittedly more than a few times), and got into a position where my alignment was pretty damn clear. and if Ace isn't on my team (which would be the case if i was mafia and he wasn't in my family) then i would want him dead regardless of what role/alignment he was.

and guys i've said this before but i genuinely believed L was full of shit. now i only think he is half shitty but i've expressed my disdain for day 1 clues enough already.

so it's not about mafia ONLY defending each other. it's about a mafia risking his own neck to defend a good player that's not on his team. THAT is something that doesn't make sense. so if it doesn't make sense then that means i'm not mafia. yay we are finally caught up.


Fair point, now that is a good argument.

Why are we assuming day 1 clues are bad based off previous games? There are 20 mafia. It's highly unlikely that mafia will be getting 6 kills a night, I'd say 4 MAYBE 5 is more likely. Why?

1) Overlapping kills. The mafia are simply going to hit the same targets. Let's say, for example, Player X is green. He's been painted red by a lot of people and thus might be hit by both families. This could happen with anyone who was painted red but is not mafia of either family. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if even 2 kills overlap.

2) Smart medics. While mafia might avoid really big targets early on because they will be protected by medics, medics who are able to anticipate mafia goals will help reduce kills.

With 20 mafia, let's assume we get 5 hits a day. We don't see overlapping clues until DAY SIX

DAY SIX

If everyone feels uncomfortable with Day 1 clue analysis just based on previous experience, I guess there isnt really anything I can say. But let's please not ignore clues on Day 2. If someone makes an accusation based on clues at you, provide an alternative. Simply saying "day 1 clues are trash" isn't enough, especially when you aren't addressing the point of just how many mafia there are in this game and how strong clues need to be.

Also redtooth, I'd like you to clear something up for me. I found a mildly disturbing inconsistency in your arguments. While L was painting Ace red based on clues you said clue analysis on day 1 is trash; that's fine.

You also said the clues pointing to ace specifically were shaky and not well thought-out. Then merely a few posts later you said that the clues pointing toward Ace were so obvious/numerous he can't be mafia. Was there a change of heart here? what happened?


Man your so wrong about the overlapping clues thing. If we dont see overlapping clues before day 6, it is because the mafia only hits the town. And that is not realistic.

The mafia hitting 1/3 each lynch seems realistic if not to low to me. Then we have 6 dead by day 3. And already overlapping clues. Altho the mafia would prolly have overlapping hits.

But my point still stands. We will see overlapping hits WAY before day 6, and if we dont we're allready doomed cause we've lost half our town

The next post, more setup talk.

First, my votes are not set in stone. If so i would not have voted so early. But its the weekend coming up and i know im definatly going out on saturday(and the voting closes 1AM(or something like that) in norway. So i had to vote something in case i wont have the time later, ofc i could have abstained but i think scamp is mafia and that L might be and he

voting scamp, because of the cluelink towards you.

voting L, because he has lead this town on so many wrong turns. And i don't see any real proof of him beeing non mafia, and if he is mafia he has gotten away with far to much allready.

reasons for not voting johnnyspaz who i think is definatly mafia, let the other mafia team kill him.


And to the clue link from malongo, im not really sure what aristocracy of money means but for the rest of the first bold sentence i feel that is a huge strech. And im not decafchickens friend

And the bold part number two. That has to be a clue to johhnyspaz, i mean he gets turn into a pincushion. And he has a picture of sonic the hedgehog.

Basically this is his only scum hunting effort in the game.

Again, his filter was super short, but the thing that I noticed is the lack of scumhunting compared to his other town games.

But I missed something big in my meta analysis.. That is, sidesprang was scum in the original Shadowed game.

Sidesprung you asked me a question I responded. There is alot going in the thread right now. I don't just want to see content I want to see some post count too. People are conversing, poking at one another a back and forth. You make one question at me and you disappeared. Don't you have anything else to comment on, or respond to my post or make a comment on another post or give your opinion. Anything really.

Dropping one post and leaving the thread is not the environment town should be fostering. Thru discussion like i was talking about earlier we can learn other alignments and discover ulterior motives. Ill give you somethings to post on.

What do you think of Balla's early vote on LM? Was it appropriate given LM"s posts?

What do you think of my response to your post? Does what I say made sense? Do you agree that I should have questioned Jonny about Balla's scum game or should I have not said anything?

Why do you think Suki poke at Jonnys two opinions? Do you think Suki got defensive after Balla inquired about her post? Why do you think Suki would post about jonny if not trying to discern if hes mafia or not? (These questions go out to Suki as well?)

Who is your towniest read at the moment? Who do you think is most likely scum? Do you believe in policy lynching lurkers? What is the lowest amount someone should be expected to post?



Firstly its Sidesprang, not sidesprung or whatever else ppl think it is.

I don't mind Balla voting for LM, because I think if he keeps on playing like this he will hopefully be easy to read. As for why he voted I dont really agree with. LM's stance on koshi's "plan" is kinda like mine. Judge people based on content not number of posts, and also only reason to lynch lurkers is if there are no better options available.

I liked your response, you had a reason for asking it and you had logic backing it up. Answer felt honest. Tho I do not agree with your logic. It's nice and all generating discussion, but I dont think going over ppl's meta this early is wise. As I think it would be harder to use meta against players if it's been discussed in thread first.

The whole suki / jonny deal requires more thought if I wanna read something out of it. Aka atm I don't really know, and I will read more up on that tomorrow when I got better time.

I got some people whom I feel are playing protown atm, but I see no reason sharing townreads at this point.

I don't have scumreads atm, tho I got a bit interested in Suki since she disliked your post. A post I liked cause you are doing what I think you should be doing with lurkers (get them to post, so you can read them, not lynch them blindly).

People should post enough to be readable and enough to get their scumreads out. I don't belive in a set number.


his first two posts in the game. Basically... He doesn't spend time on policy talk and he starts hunting right away.



So yeah. Taking this into account my case on sidesprang doesn't hold any water. Based on the games that I linked in my original post, I think that my conclusions were reasonable - policy talk in his scum game and scum hunting in his town games. But taking into account the previous Shadowed game where he was scum it's obvious he's changed (read improved) his scum game quite a bit.

Anyways, I suppose I'm null on sidesprang for now. I'll take a closer look at him later.

Full 180 on sidesprang, still based on meta.

This is in direct contrast to what I know of town jonny. The guy LOVES to pick at this stuff.


That is a sick sick catch Balla, My King. The fact that Jonny hasn't jumped on Jay at all is really suspicious, especially Jay's post where you pointed out he was making excuses for no reason.

Another thing I noticed about Jonny is that he spends a lot of time saying how stupid your opening post is, but that's all it amounts to. Just adding fluff to the game. He appreciates I start the game 'with style' by asking him this question "Why the hell is a giant post that balla OBVIOUSLY wrote before the roles were revealed, make him scum?", and then proceeds to ignore my question and continue to berate balla for the bad post.

Ok so Jonny doesn't have any scum games that I can find. If someone can link me any that would be great.

Going through the previous town games of his I don't see too much difference between those games and this game. He's always posted one liners, with the occasional longer post here and there. One of the things that I didn't like about his play that I've mentioned is he keeps on shitting on Balla's opening post way after he says it's useless to talk about it.. But in Shadowed Mafia he actually does the same with Koshi's opening. Keeps on mentioning it despite saying it's useless.

I think there's not enough for me to come to a conclusion on him yet. I'm eagerly anticipating his case on Balla and the next few people he pushes.

Jonny's scum game had already been linked by balla. Suki appears to be avoiding the issue/not reading the thread
But then...

Right now my second lynch is Jonny.

I think the points brought up by Balla are quite valid. I found his lack of comment on Jay strange (even before I really started tunneling Jay). He promised a big post on Balla and has not delivered which is really fishy. Points in his favour are that his playstyle hasn't changed dramatically (still one liners, still mostly angry), and a good player once told me that he's never seen a scum player post in the thread when they're drunk.

I think that his activity the next time he comes into the thread is going to make or break my read on him.

If somehow Jay became off-limits for the lynch and I had to choose right now based on my general impressions, I'd vote for Jonny.

She clings tight to this idea of wait-and-see.

I just can't get over my read on Jay. He's scum to me through and through. Even before he started blowing up at me his attitude just didn't make sense and didn't fit with his town play. People give him the pass for 'making changes' but they never explain why these changes make it more likely that he's town.

If it's between Jonny and Jay, then I'll push Jay.

Jonny's case on Koshi based on the early gameis so bad. His continued use of the previous game to provide examples is stupid. However if I give him the benefit of the doubt and believe that he was working and he's short on time, then it's easier to accept that his cases are bad. At least he's pushing cases, giving reads freely, being upfront.

Contrast it with Jay's behavior. Yes, I am tunneling Jay. I'm just so damn sure of him. I don't buy his blue 'claim' at all (true-blue townie? what kind of stupid claim is that). How is it that Jay's been here so much more than Jonny and yet he's the one that has less scum-hunting activity?

Remember how we were like when Koshi came into this game and claimed he was going to be super active, that if he didn't hold up to it then he's an easy lynch? Jay came into this game with an over the top IM GONNA HUNT SCUM attitude and he HAS NOT DELIVERED. Fuck.

I am willing to give Jonny a second chance. His cases that he made are bad but that's no reason to fault him, at least he made cases, posted opinions and pushed the person he thought was scummy.

What is Jay doing? Jonny came in and had no problems making a shitty case on Koshi just now yet I ask Jay why he thinks Koshi is scum and he dodges hard and later says 'Koshi is null'. Jay can't even stick to his own guns.

Look at the votes in the thread. EVERYONE is on Jonny. Everyone. But there's so much hesitation with Jay.

Face it, Jonny's the easy (mis)lynch target and not because he's been playing scummy, but because he has a few tweaks to his game that are suspicious (such as not flaming people for excuses, not commenting on Jay), because he's been away and because his cases are horrible.

BUT he is OBJECTIVELY (yes Oats, Objectively) doing more pro-town things than Jay.

Arrghghghghgh.

I could apply suki's "jonny is freely posting" reasons to jayb if I felt so inclined. This line of reasoning doesn't hold water. Add in the fact that despite the fact thta Jonny isnt really that scummy (to suki), Jonny is still the #2 lynch on her list. Wat?

NOT ANYMORE IT DOESNT. This is the kind-of-sort-of defending Jonny that I think has everyone on edge about suki's true motive.

For real though, Koshi if you're town are you going to try and make real cases and hunt scum this game? Because last game you made shit cases and said I'm town. If you make shit cases and say I'm town again there's only one logical conclusion...

Poor jayB. Koshi doesn't need to be happy at the start. Scum Koshi would need to fake that. Town Koshi will shine through and will never get lynched.

Click on my profile. Look at all the towngames. Koshi hasn't been lynched since Titanic. Won't happen this game.

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.


You're making so many excuses for no reason. Why would you tryharding last game have anything to do with this game or how tough it's going to be? In fact, what are you trying to say when you say you "tryharded the shit out of last game"? What, are you implying you're not going to tryhard the shit out of this game, why not?

Scumhunting is scumhunting. Sure there's not much to talk about on day1 but that's where you make stuff to talk about and then scumhunt from there. There has been no effort to do that. Instead, all you have done is called my first post "icky", which was 100% totally intended to do just that, get people to start talking and scumhunting from the get go which should be pretty obvious to everybody, but for some reason you decided it was icky and then make excuses for what I can only assume is going to be bad scumhunting on day 1.

Your first post was obviously pre-written. It's not "icky" but it's not alignment indicative. You'd post the same thing as scum or town.

The sections you highlighted in his posts make me feel wary. They're scummy sure. Does that make him scum?

Koshi is scum. I caught one :D


In fact, this post is so very scummy. If you are town, your reaction to these "fake votes" would be completely different. You would be confused and curious as to what they find scummy about what you said, or you would just think that it's totally trolly and ignore it.

Here you find it is scummy? What cause he thinks you feel off? Your response should have been "what feels off about me then oh wise one koshi" and not "you're scum".


I actually agree with Jay here. I don't give a shit about votes an hour into the game.


1. That's interesting to me because that's literally what you always jump on as town is people making excuses for their play. But at least you are wary.
2. That's not the point. Think about your reaction if someone just random votes you without explaining anything.

You either think it's trolly or you think "wtf". If it's trolly you basically ignore it, which jb started to do. If you think wtf, you become curious and try to understand wtf they are thinking, and SPECIFICALLY if they have actually think they see something or not.

After he thinks their real, he basically goes "WTF" and goes HAM on koshi for being non-commital. NOWHERE does he show a curious, townie, scum-hunting mindset but instead just straight up attacks him. He doesn't ask what is that "feels off", he just says that saying that is scummy.

I would seriously expect him to think harder about what Koshi is doing.



That's the most important part of your post. Anyone who calls jay scum must be scum. Easy defense. Jay looks scummy. So does Koshi.

Honestly you've done nothing to show otherwise either.


Decent analysis. Sharing of reads.

After this he goes to dinner with his girlfriend.

Right now Balla has posted this against Jonny:
He also completely dismissed my first post without even giving it a a real thought, similar to what jaybrundage did, and has been spewing irrelevant things like commentary about post-game which is completely off-topic unless he wants to make a point about this game with it. Also the aqua stuff is pretty irrelevant, and actually anti-town. What's the point of talking about Aqua's meta if he hasn't even posted anything yet? Sure I guess it's interesting to see if anybody has played with him, but you can 1. do that research yourself. 2. wait to see if anybody brings any meta arguments and information to the table themselves.


So at this point in the game, Jonny's being called out for:
1. Dismissing Balla's opening post. Jonny also hated on Koshi's opening post last game and wanted to stop discussing it asap.
2. Commentary about the previous game, which is off-topic.
3. asking about Aqua's meta. Balla calls it anti-town but I'd rate it more neutral.

Koshi also at this point called Jonny out for leaving right when JayB started getting attention.

I appreciate the effort you put into that post man. It's funny but you're trying to force it into being more distracting than Koshi's post last game.

What the fuck?


The post he quotes here is completely irrelevant to my probability mafia post. This was literally the first time I was not being trolly in this game. I know the things I was referring to were trolly and joky, but I wanted to start the game at that point, and they were interesting enough initial thoughts to question their motives behind it. Why does he think i'm forcing anything and distracting anything. That was literally the start of the first discussion of the game yet he doesn't even really read it.

He even moves into quoting one of my more trolly posts afterwards ("I declare myself king") and calls it funny, even though it was way more distracting than anything else I did.

Overall you had a good game. You had one comment early that tripped my scum radar. I think along the lines of "in newer games people need motivation to post." Then you proceeded to try and take over the town. I felt like you were scum trying to take over the town. Bah, you should have been scum.


There were plenty moments where jonny talks about something irrelevant and not helpful to the game with the facade that it is "getting the game started" and "not talking about policy". This post here could have literally happened in post-game and pre-game, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference. There is absolutely NO relevance to jay's alignment in this game. In fact, all it does is help jay if he's scum. There's more moments like this, specifically the Aqua stuff.

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.


tldr Rean and Austin are useless right now because they're doing nothing. Mocsta's making excuses without them being asked. Could be scummy. MZ's spending all his time on defense. This is the opposite of how soniv approached aggression directed his way. That's why I liked soniv for town earlier.

Balla your points are as follows:
1. Jonny is taking offense to your joke posts, although he calls your first serious post a joke and he also laughs at your later crowning of yourself as king. You don't really explain how this is scummy but I assume it's more like a point that he's inconsistent and not reading properly.

He ignores the points where Balla says Jonny was wasting time talking about fluff. He explains he felt bad in the previous game for tunneling Jay so hard. Basically he dismisses Balla's case which I think is reasonable.

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.

The second post is the scummiest thing Jay's said all day. Actually it's scummy as hell rereading it. Under what town mindset are you ready to lynch one person and vig another two hours into the game? I wanna go look at balla before I crash.


He posts saying Jay is scummy. Asks a very potent question (bolded) which I actually really like.

I really want to see this case on Balla he claims to have.

idk what to make of jayB now, gonna need to see more from him to make any solid read. Similar for sidesprang.


The important point here is that he brings up the fact that Jonny hasn't asked any questions or put any serious pressure on anyone.

Aqua says Jonny didn't answer Balla's case (the two sections previous to this one), I think Balla's case wasn't really pointing out why Jonny was scummy and Jonny's 'defense' makes decent sense. I mean, what is someone supposed to do when you accuse him of fluff? defend himself? He went and posted a case and promised another one.

Hello. Had major emergency at work today so I have only done a quick read of the thread so far.

So far I'd call JonnyLaw the scummiest of the bunch. Just compare his posting to the previous game and his newbies.
One liners, off topic, no hostility towards who he thinks is scum.

Proper read commencing now, if there's anything you want me to comment on or pay extra attention to let me know.

Okay, so:

JonnyLaw

Not playing to his usual aggressive, abrasive town meta (and he was called very town for it in the previous game, so there's no reason to change). Posting a lot of one liners and not volunteering his opinion.

Verdict: scummy


LoneMeow calls Jonny the scummiest of the bunch. The logic is kinda flawed. He was somewhat hostile in the beginning and even in his other games he posts mostly one liners. He hasn't volunteered his opinion on anyone really. This point is true. However, I feel like it's not because Jonny was here in thread not volunteering his opinion but that Jonny was away from the thread and that's why it didn't happen.

Why do you think jaybrundage can't be scum if JonnyLaw is town? Connection?

The way you catched me previous game. I disappeared when it was lynch and wasn't discussing anything. The same happened with Jonny early game. Imagine if Jonny is town and jayB is scum, do you think Jonny would suddenly disappear at the same time hell breaks lose and not offer his opinion?

Then when I call him out on him he says that he is there and trying to make sense of the clusterfuck. Which is extremely scummy, and then the next thing he posts is a misinterpretation about something that hapenned PRE-GAME. (the lollypop business).


That's so strange coming from a guy who is pretty straightforward and dares to gives his opinion. When they are both scum it could have been because Jonny was seeing the clusterfuck that JayB was pulling himself into and just didn't know what to do. But I can see scum Jonny seeing townies fight and maybe be startled a bit on what to say, which side to pick. But town Jonny not knowing what to say when scum jayB is parading in the thread. Mehhhh.


Again, if Jonny really was away, it's just inconvenient timing. If Jonny was here then yes it's suspicious. However Jonny did leave the thread at that point and say he was going out so it's just whether or not you believe him.

Moving on, Jonnylaw. I feel bad here because of his drunk posting last night and how I said I wanted to ignore it while waiting for Jonny to come back and tell me if they were serious or not. But it's been a while now... his activity level is making me very wary(did I use the right word?) on top of all the other stuff I've already posted about.

So actually, mid-writing this I decide I don't really have anything more to say about Jonny. I'd appreciate if he would try again to refute the points I brought up against him last night, because all drunk jonny did was mis-interpret what I was saying and ignore other stuff then call me scum for my filter which has still not been followed up on. Actually he also did this while he was sober too:

He also completely dismissed my first post without even giving it a a real thought, similar to what jaybrundage did, and has been spewing irrelevant things like commentary about post-game which is completely off-topic unless he wants to make a point about this game with it. Also the aqua stuff is pretty irrelevant, and actually anti-town. What's the point of talking about Aqua's meta if he hasn't even posted anything yet? Sure I guess it's interesting to see if anybody has played with him, but you can 1. do that research yourself. 2. wait to see if anybody brings any meta arguments and information to the table themselves.

Knowing whether someone has played with someone or not doesn't do anything.

This is not what I said. I didn't say there was something to discuss, I said you didn't give it a real thought.


It's actually giving me flashbacks to Normal Mini Mafia 1 vibes where I was scum and I was called scum early by multiple people because of my activity, and unfortunately I wasn't able to re-establish myself in the thread like I would have liked. I'm not sure if that's what's happening here obviously until Jonny gives me some sense that this is not what's happening. Another thing that makes me feel worse about him is that when we are both town, we tend to work very well together, regardless of how clashy our personalities are. We're not working well together. I don't know who he thinks is scum, all I know is he read my filter and thought it smelled bad. Maybe that will change.

Finally....

##vote Jonnylaw



Basically, activity level sucks. Not really anything else to say. Comparing Jonny's inactivity to when Balla was scum and he wasn't able to re-establish himself in the thread. (Interesting point, why are you using this point for Jonny and not for Jay? Especially since Jay at the start said he was totes going to scum hunt hard) . Meta of how Jonny and Balla aren't working together even though they usually do despite their personalities clashing.

That reminds me of people wanting to know about my off feeling from jayB.

From what I remember:
I was reading his post and I was thinking "well, this post feels somewhat constructed. But ok." and then Balla voted for the guy and I was like "yeah let's get this party starting."

no. i don't think jay's scum at this point. his gameplay changes from this game to the last one make sense to me. his read of balla's starting post makes sense to me. calling out scum that early in the game makes sense to me as town. he changed the things that i said make him scum.

koshi's play doesn't make sense to me.


He says he doesn't think Jay is scum and provides reasons. He says Koshi's play doesn't make sense.

I think he's forgotten that he had promised a write up on Balla. The scum explanation is he's trying to ignore it. The town explanation is he was drunk and doesn't remember.

Furthermore, Jonny's case on Koshi really feels to me like he just opened Koshi's filter and tried to spin each post in turn so that it looked scummy, rather than drawing a reasoned conclusion from Koshi's filter as a whole.

I don't feel like a townie would seriously believe that case. I'm not 100% certain that Koshi is town myself but that case doesn't convince me one bit.

And then just his filter. I don't know if it is hilarious because I know I am town but really. There is nothing.


I like this follow up.

-- -- -- -- - - --

And now everyone is putting on their party hats and saying we caught scum.


Suki's thoughts

Points against Jonny:
1. He has one stupid case against Koshi and a few barely explained reads.
2. He isn't questioning people or trying to find out alignments.
3. He said he would write a case against Balla and didn't follow up.
4. He's barely been in the thread at all, and is almost lurking really.
5. Rushes to get out of the thread at the end of his latest case.

Points for Jonny:
1. If you believe that he had a shitfest at work and believe he went out with his girlfriend then his absence from the thread, lack of reading through the thread and lack of depth in his reads can be explained.
2. He posted while he was drunk (which I guess most people will ignore)
3. If you believe he hasn't had much time, then the fact that he isn't questioning people makes sense too. When he is in the thread he uses his time to post his reads and also answer questions briefly. His rushing out of the thread also makes sense. like, if it's a long day and work was shit then maybe he just wants to get in bed.

He isn't making excuses. He provides his opinions on people freely even if the reasons themselves are horrible and not researched. He's consistent with his view on Jay which is he doesn't want to read him due to tunneling him badly in the previous game.

UNLIKE Jay, I can see townie motivation for the way Jonny plays if I assume that Jonny has been really short on time.

YES, not questioning people and having shit cases is definitely against Jonny's regular play style. HOWEVER, I don't think he would just play scum like this if he actually did have time to play. In other words, unlike Jay who I am having a hard time finding townie motivation for, Jonny's actions and activity can be explained.

Final Conclusion: I want to see more from Jonny. He is basically like a lurker at this point with bad cases. Maybe I'm giving him too much slack and to be honest his play is bad enough that I still would vote for him as my second pick, but I am NOT confident that he HAS to be scum.



Way harder on the defense of Jonny and insisting that he needs more time and his inactivity can be explained because of out-of-game stuff. That didn't matter last game when it was me who was afk for 24 hours. I could have made whatever excuse I want, that doesn't mean it had to be true. Its not fair in my opinion to be trying to push LoneMeow or Slam for lurking and then turn around and say Jonny hasnt posted enough but we'll give him more time. The double-standard and hard defense look really bad to me.




Actually page 8 of suki's filter looks terrible to me. Especially that discredit at the end.

Balla why is it more likely that me or oats is scum? Did you see Marv's godly bus on sandroba that was basically the point at which town lost the original game? "Oh scum wouldn't bus like that". Don't pull that shit. Koshi is town because jonny slipped. You're probably town because I like ya. I'm town because my pm told me so. In my eyes everyone else is a target.

You said A) only 1 of jayb and suki is scum. (They can absolutely both be scum so you're wrong on this one)
B) oats/me/coag must be scum because our reasons for voting jonny were shit and uninspired. I'll eat my hat sir.

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.

All things are possible. Ruling people out for fitting into certain boxes is bad. Stop scumhunting by checklist

If you don't want to lynch him then why bother defending him?

Fair point. I haven't decided who I want to lynch today. If it ends up being Oats we'll revisit this.

No it's not a fair point. I thought you and I were on the same wavelength here but apparently not lol.

If another player thinks your town read of someone is not solid then you need to explain that town read. Having a town read that you can not convince others of being solid is scummy.

Even if they might disagree on the reasoning, but as long as it is solid then that's where the conversation can end. Aquanim thinks your town read of Oats is no good, therefore you might be scummy for that, especially if you cant more in-depthly explain.


The sun is blue. Discuss.

1)Why is jayb not town to you?

2)Why is suki/jayb both being scum still possible to you, where for everybody else it's not?

3)Why do you tell me that it's likely that scum bussed based on last game but then you say

which means that you think mafia did NOT bus if you think suki/jayb are more likely mafia?


1) jayb still has horrific cases on koshi in his filter and an overall uninspired day1. Just because Jonny did it too doesn't make jayb less scummy-looking. It does have the unfortunate side-effect of making it seem improbable that jayb will actually flip scum but I'll be damned if I say he looks like sunshine and rainbows.

2) Because everybody else consists of a herd of moo cows

3) My point is that ANYONE who voted Jonny is possible scum since an outspoken push on getting Jonny lynched could have been made with full knowledge of his alignment. The fact that I think jayb/suki are scummier than the group of me/oats/coag does not infer that jayb/suki are scummier than aqua/lonemeow/sidesprang/you (although you do look town king balla, so you've got that going for you)
