Would guess 3-4 total. Probably 2 start and a third converted? Another option is a 3 start with the option to convert 1 person or so, I don't think there's some MASSIVE conversion with a 3 scum start.
Also given all the talk of alignment switching, I don't know what to think about conversions exactly. Having anti-conversion mechanics in rayn indicates that conversions are a lasting threat to town, indicating we probably start with like 2 scum and the threat of conversion is constant. I kind of thought there might be multiple alignment-swapping mechanics, given the OP, but it seems difficult to swap people from scum to town --> they just give up the team.
One option is nothing but pseudonyms in scum chat. Seems terrible.
One option is scum having limited conversion or no conversion powers, and things just happening naturally. If amiko's role swap is to be believed OR not believed, conversions could simply be a function of time. If x is alive for y cycles, send new message, convert, etc.
OVERALL THOUGH ALL THAT ASIDE I THINK WE'RE PROBABLY AT 3-4 RIGHT NOW

BUT ALSO THAT THE EXACT NUMBER IS NOT AS IMPORTANT AS FINDING THEM AND KILLING THEIR FACES

I'm kinda afraid to have kita checked cause thrawn and poofter both seem eager for that to happen and I don't want him to be a godfather in that case cause then it's gg.

On N1, hopeless (if truthful) would have seen Vivax and JJD targeting me. That checks out. On N2, hopeless would have seen JJD targeting (kita).
At first, hopeless said he saw ME visiting last night. I roleblocked kita, or attempted to, so that checks out.
However, hopeless shortly thereafter said he got a correction and that he saw NOBODY else visiting his target. That would be the case if Vivax roleblocked me, I would not have visited kita.
I don't believe there to be a contradiction. There's a contradiction if you assume Hopeless is lying about host update, 100%. However, if you believe the update, there's no contradiction.

The take is I jailed austin N1. Austin N2.
Hopeless saw me jailing austin N1 cause JJD checked him, and saw no one visiting kita N2 after saying it was a host mistake that he saw me going to kita.
Now I think it's kinda unfair to say things as if you received them from the host without official confirmation, it's like checking someone, getting a wrong result back and you say to the thread that it's the host's fault without the host chiming in, then it looks fishy and it's the host's fault. On the other hand scum saying something based on host action is also something I don't see as fair play.
Given that hopeless used an argumentation that is based on a host mistake or is phrased like it came from a host I would consider it adequate for the hosts to give confirmation
|
Oh. I misread JJD's n1 target then. I need to confirm if he actually did that I suck this game apparently sorry.
|
Btw amiko given that scum knows I'm not lying you get confirmed townie status in my book for using those wrong arguments.
|
That's great but I'd rather be town with good arguments ;_; Where does JJD say he targeted austin n1?
|
Hosts should not confirm IMO

oh I see.

I'm typing up a second thought. But, I don’t want to distract conversation from tehpoofter. I don’t like his last few responses.
|
Off work. So you think 3 Austin. I think the number matters because some people don't make sense as mafia unless they started higher IMO
|
@amiko what didn't you like?
|
Okay thought 2:
Scum used 2 KP used tonight as far as we can tell. If Scum had 2 KP n1, but no kills resulted, where might the KP have gone?
One KP might have been used on me (because gumshoe saved me). One KP could have been used on Austin (because Vivax jailed him), but in that case Hopeless should have seen the kill. One KP could have been used on Toad, who was ethereal n1.
It is also possible that scum players were roleblocked and unable to use KP. Austin was roleblocked n1 according to Vivax. Austin is a roleblocker, we don’t know whether Austin’s roleblock would go through if Austin was targeted with a roleblock. Regardless, N1 Austin says he targeted toad. So, if Austin does have KP, it was either blocked or ineffective (because it targeted toad). If a roleblocked Austin’s roleblocked actions still occur, he blocked kita n2. So kita may be able to clarify how this works if he knows whether his n2 action occurred.
- I’m gonna talk about tehpoofter next.

Oh sorry to wrap up the last post
To wrap up the last post- I don't see Toad or myself as a particularly likely kill n1. But, if Hopeless' claim is real, then Mafia didn't target austin. So, I will take a look at my d1 and Toad's (though I don't remember seeing much there for him besides the scumread on hopeless).
|
Amiko, maybe scum has the ability to withhold KP 1 night and have 1 extra the next one.
Or they convert on odd nights and 2 kp on even, Toad's role had similar mechanics.

Re - tehpoofter: Day 1 I was mixed about tehpoofter.
Some things he said I didn’t like: - He suggested it was possible Slam (who claimed 3rd party) was town, which didn’t feel possible to me. (http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewpost.php?post_id=21090949]link[/url]) Granted, he didn’t say it was likely (5%) but I felt like, why even bring it up if the percentage is that low.
- Early d1 he seemed to townread kita. He also had a scumread on rayn, or at least disagreed with him on some substantial points.

Yeah but maybe one day rayn will learn to tone it down a notch instead of pulling stuff like telling everyone they're bad/shit/stupid for simply disagreeing with him. In the meantime, he insists we can totally scumhunt while we circlejerk around slam's impeding doom. Do you think rayn is doing a good job of scum hunting? not particularly. Glad you agree with me! We should vote him off cause hes not doing a good job of hunting for scum like I feel he does as town and might be pushing an easy lynch in slam irrelevant of his role and not bothering to scum hunt.

Surprise surprise i think i have done the most scumhunting in this game hands down. He has talked about nothing than me, he bases his read on me on one game (rofl), noone agrees with him on his read, yet his meta read must be correct. ^^ I could write a bigger case but i don't wanna do that right now. Basically he keeps flip-flopping over same things over and over again, when i tell him why they are wrong he forgets them for a while and then they suddenly just reappear. He is saying maybe two things and nothing else in this game. I agree with whoever said (austin?) that Hopeless is town. While i think his play is completely useless and idiotic he is town. JJD also looks okayish. so kita and tehpoofer are most likely scum. maybe gumshoe. I would love to hear your bigger case rayn. This is what I mean that is different from last game... your heart is either not as into this game or you're a different alignment than last time. The rayn from the game I played was more than happy to bring up a whole case on someone even if it was a massive wall of texts and then scream at the town for not realizing they're scum. This isn't what you're doing this game... its different and its the only meta I know for you. The Way I play mafia is assessing how people play different alignments and roles and compare them between games along with the information in the thread to attempt to make a read. Thus far you are different than last game where you were basically the whole town. IF I have a read you do X as town and then you do Y instead should I draw a different conclusion?

For scum: I want to look at vivax, kita, kush and JJD the most. I don't think they are all four scum but I think there is definitely a scum in there. Vivax for the reason that he tried to bury rayn and then voted slam... like he buries a town and gets off the wagon good lay low scum play imo. Kita: He puhsed on rayn and didn't really seem to listen to his responses during his push if you will note the difference between him and me pushing our cases on rayn I was not really sure and uncertain about if he was scum and austin pointed it out on my case I feel like being sure is more scummy than townie cause I'm trying to figure it out and kita in this case would just need a ML also I pointed out earlier my theory on the vote count thing possibly being from him. Kush: He is here because my town read thrawn wants to know whats up with you. JJD: He says that kita scum slipped calling me and him town maybe he did and kita is scum but it counts against JJD here because I'm in no way confirmed so how does he know I'm town? I mean maybe he read me as town but I didn't see that in his read... I'm going to read his filter after this and see if I missed him calling me town before that but I don't recall it.
I ranked my scum and town in order of strongest to weakest. I don’t feel he really asked kita questions to follow up on those reads. But, it’s also unusual because toward the end of the day he seems to suggest that kita’s actions that day didn’t seem that scummy. Then the next morning he is back on with kita as scum. [spoiler]

Also @ austin the post you quoted with 4 I still am hardest on vivax, kush is clear I think cause his role with the extra vote and day shot would be insane op for Mafia, Kita I will get up and read on d2 actions and see if he makes the pile but just the brief thread read through nothign stood out. JJD has a nuke and I like what he was doing pressuring hopeless with the fake claim thing it seemed like a really brazen thing to do and not something you'd really want to do as mafia and I think hopeless acted poorly on it.
I know I haven't been around but I feel confident on this vivax lynch read my case, maybe kush will come out with a big case like he said in one of his posts but I don't like his posting patterns.

I'm not convinced any of the roles have to be blue even toads but if town lynches a third straight blue we're pretty much SoL.

JJD had a role that could do something to others kita as mafia would know that its not a medic/shrink/inventor since JJD had the nuke yesterday. Austin lived through the night so unlikely to be vigi my next thought would be cop. JJD was going saying adamantly against kita if I recall correctly. So that was my first thought that Kita didn't want a cop claim with a red on him thus 1- JJD only claimed cop after the night action deadlines were in. So, scum had already decided who to kill before the cop claim came out. 2- Scum used 2 KP last night. If tehpoofter thinks scum killed JJD for being suspicious of kita, why would they also killed Djodref, who seemed to really trust kita (look through his filter, I think it’s basically all pro-kita)?
Besides the above @tehpoofter: If you think kita is scum, who do you think is his most likely partner?
