How can you say this is the most damning bit of all yet you literally just did the same thing and went 90% scum on rayn when Steveling has still "yet to open his mouth"?


Show nested quote +
Steveling plays alot of video games, he lives in greece(athens, its 11:57 over there at the time of this post) and has been known to post/stay up/game late. He also likes quality literature and is invested in public conflict (like the syrian civil war). Which gives me the sense he is excited to play mafia overall and I find he can be quite active at the start of games (have not played with him in some time but thats my old impression). Seems interesting that he feels the need to recalibrate instead when this is really the best time to jump on the game, I mean theres only like 6 pages so far, perhaps he wants to tread lightly?

Rayn watcha think?


I used this to bait Rayn, but the fact that this exists means I thought out what his early lack of commitment might mean.

Show nested quote +
You and Rayn are firing off in every direction, trusting in your scum hunting skills to avail you I suppose, I on the other hand am pretty much zerod in on you because you are 50 percent scum XD so yeah, I can see why you might say that.


Show nested quote +
Because there's a 50 percent chance your scum therefore I owe you no favours, and I didn't catch anything worth bringing up at that moment.


Rayn pressed me into fighting him when I had nothing concrete to call him scum, I tried baiting him and my results were inconclusive so I back off until he pressed me into fighting with him and revealed his true self, also I clearly say repeatedly hes 50 50, therefore worthy of suspicion, but not 100 percent how does any of that reflect the mindset of someone completely set on scum Rayn from the start? .

Compare that to this.

Like, read the fucking thread before you post Balla.

I think another key thing is Rayn doesnt once include sheer probability as a factor in his suspicion of me (like I do constantly, similar to a drowning man clinging to a raft) he presents his scum reads as if their derived from sheer skill and analysis, because probability doesnt factor into Rayn's convictions, he knows who town is and his reads will just continue to build up solely because he wills them to.

What are you on about? None of that has anything to do with the contradiction you are displaying. You are calling rayn scum for being confident about his scum read on you even though Steveling has yet to contribute. Yet you are going HAM on rayn, even though steveling has still yet to contribute.

It has nothing to do with you attempting to bait rayn. What I want to know is, how can you call rayn scummy for that and say it's the "most damning bit of all" even though you are doing the exact same thing.


I backed off of Rayn after the fake case cause his response was fine, but Rayn came back for me and I explained why I lied. He then started hammering me as if he knew I was scum, whereas I was never certain of his alignment, only reasonably suspicious. He has always been far more suspect of me than I of him, I was just trying to read the guy whose in my group. Instead of talking shit Balla, show me proof that I was certain of Rayn's guilt before he was certain of mine and that I was more vocal about it.


Come on now, I'm not talking shit, I'm talking about what I'm seeing.

The order of operations doesn't matter. Steveling has still done nothing, yet you are certain Rayn is mafia, and you call rayn scummy for being certain of you being mafia even though Steveling has done nothing.

You display that confidence here:

Like, I'm not arguing that rayn does not twist stuff like crazy to be in his favor as mafia and make stuff up out of thin air, he does that, it's true. I'm arguing that you guys going after each other hard and with confidence is not a scumtell like you are trying to make it out to be for rayn (and brushing it off when you do the same thing).

I understand the rest of your case, and while it's hard to follow it might be somewhat ok but that point isn't valid.

Let's move on: what do you think of some other cells, specifically Cell 2 and Cell 5 are the ones i'm most interested in.


I am displaying confidence that he is mafia after this.

Here i present you our first......

My reasoning for him bieng scum is BORN from his lack of consideration of Steveling 0_0 the order of operations means fucking everything here. Also I even said I'm 90 percent sure after that huge case, I admit it's possible I'm wrong despite my high degree of certainty, whereas Rayn who hasnt put half the effort into going after me thinks I am 100 percent scum.

Like, its amazing how your trying to break my whole case by going after this one bit, and you cant even do that, is it hard being scum/dumb balla?

We can talk about plenty. How mderg's posts so far have been useless and scummy maybe?


Mderg is a lurky/noobish player, bad play coming out of him deserves due consideration. 50 percent of this games active players (I am not counting lurkers) find this guy scummy in a game where a third of us are scum. Yeah... lynching this guy is not getting us a red flip.

First off that was Cav. Second, I can understand this line of thinking (50% of active think he's scum in a 33% scum game), but it's bad logic. OTTOMH I forget who is in what group but it's quite possible that everyone who hasn't liked mderg is town. Like I really don't want HF playing past day 1 but right now I'm really uncomfortable lynching into pod 2 because Banks is a little town but the other two are complete question marks.

I understand it's "shit logic" usually, but we have really never played with this high a ratio of scum to town, so I do feel it is a facor worth considering / : if pretty much half the people playing right now are scum, and half of town as a whole has attacked this guy who we know plays bad, dont you think thats pretty suspicious?

Its almost purely because of the ratio of players, he is a meh player who is capable of playing very bad and too many people have jumped on him, I have also pointed out holy as an alternative scum in that group, what do you think of him?

I am also going to say this last time poofer and i try to be as clear as possible.

What you are doing is this:
You are refusing to comment on the part of the game where it is statistically easiest for you to find mafia if you are town (and therefore prove your townieness) and where it's the hardest for you to hide if you are mafia.

Can you see why it's scummy?

~rayn


Well I disagree I see if I refused to give them ever that it would be scummy but thats fine I'm moving on and reading the slam/LSB/Balla cell now.


If you have many people telling you what you are doing is wrong, shouldn't that tell you that you are probably wrong? You need to comment on your cell as soon as you get the chance to, and since you have been "taking notes on your cell" it should be easy for you to do so.

Furthermore, why do you disagree with what rayn just said?


I disagree that temporarily holding back your ideas is scummy but I do agree never telling is scummy. (Mainly I had this idea that if i got scum I'd just tunnel my own group and do nothing else and I wanted to avoid letting people do that as mafia and this sounded like a good way to do it so I'm probably just arguing cause I want my idea to be right)


Two things:

#1: Is holding back your ideas hindering scum's abilities to play properly or is there any reason that you are actually holding back your ideas? If not, then you are only hindering town's ability to read you, so post what you think of your cell.

#2 Like rayn said, it is EASIEST to read your cell, since you have a 50% chance of being correct therefore it is also hardest to hide within as mafia, since the people within your cell have a higher shot to read you. So you need to post about these people.

Do you consider yourself unreadable?

~rayn

I consider myself perfectly readable. I am town, thus I know that I am town.

I consider myself pretty easy to read by others, if I had to guess what my town/scum features would be, it's that I get a lot more frustrated as town. In Noir I was a lot more logical and active than usual because I had 5 people to calm me down and streamline my behavior. With town I either get mad and stop caring (Nuclear Winter), or tunnel someone because I can't be arsed to do anything else (Roulette).


I hate things like the bolded part, just doesn´t add anything. Everybody claims to be town.

The analysis on yourself is interesting, I think it is very difficult to read peope who know their "town/scum features"


Neither does your post. What exactly is the point of it? Are you calling sentinel scum because he is "claiming town"?



I had highlighted that post by mderg in my normal read through and your comment I agree that his non conclusion on Sentinal is really weird like he wants to paint him as scum without actually using those words. Makes me think Mderg scummy Sentinal town. I like that you seemed to on the same thought chain as me here. So atm in my cell I'm leaning HF=town and Mderg=scum.

As far as your filter what do you read on slam Balla? Do you read him like rayn based off tone?


You thought I was scum before reading my filter? Why? This makes no sense if you thought Slam was scum. Maybe i'm misreading the "but after reading your filter".

I don't read Slam off of tone, I read him off of content. I'm 2/3 with him. When he posts mostly gibberish he is town when he posts somewhat related to the game he is mafia. That didn't work for me last game so I will be more careful, right now he is town but he's had a string of posts that are making me doubt that. Plus it's not that unreasonable for him to have been changing that meta on purpose.

Which leads into LSB: he has talked a lot about setup and pushed a prplhz mafia angle for a little while. From what I've seen so far it is not totally unreasonable for him to be mafia. We will see what he does.

Last thing to you poofter: you just directly contradicted what you have been preaching for the past couple of hours and asked me about someone in my cell even though from your PoV I shouldn't be commenting on people in my cell. What gives?



I don't know you and rayn's alignment so I have to consider that you're attacking my plan because you're scum and know its a good idea or that you're town and my idea is shit. So The "after reading your filter" bit was me saying "well shit I read rayn as town and Balla now looks town maybe my idea was shit" so before you were neutral and I wanted you to comment on my idea after the read you both look town and so maybe my idea was bad. I have formally abandoned my plan because apparently it was bad so might as well use my town reads to figure out what they think and find out their views. You and rayn could be mafia and I'm misreading you both but since I've only played with a couple people in this game you and rayn being 2 of them and you were both town in the games I've played getting a read on you both as town and trusting your judgement seems like the best course of action. Basically I reassessed after reading your filter and am willing to try it you guys way.


Ok then, so moving on: what are your thoughts on Holyflare and mderg?



So I liked your point on mderg he seemed to make a really weird point that led me to believe he is scum and sentinal is town if thats the case. He wasn't willing to call sentinel scum off what he said but like wanted someone else to which is scummy.

As for HF he has 2 posts that cause me worry.

2. Agrees with rayn that we ashould be scum hunting today
3. Asks to be mayor repeatedly instead

Is that towny to you slam?


So to me he insinuates palmer is town cause of something geript said who he reads at scum then his very next post he makes it seem like palmer is not town at all. Now I think the 2nd post is probably more indicative of how HF feels because I can see the 1st one being more of a sarcastic off hand remark and more about geript than Palmer. However it is odd that back to back posts from him call Palmer two different alignments.

HF also read my idea about the cell reads as stupid which is what rayn and balla both did and they seem town to me so I guess he should get town points for that.


For me Mderg more scummy than HF.

I am also going to say this last time poofer and i try to be as clear as possible.

What you are doing is this:
You are refusing to comment on the part of the game where it is statistically easiest for you to find mafia if you are town (and therefore prove your townieness) and where it's the hardest for you to hide if you are mafia.

Can you see why it's scummy?

~rayn


Well I disagree I see if I refused to give them ever that it would be scummy but thats fine I'm moving on and reading the slam/LSB/Balla cell now.


If you have many people telling you what you are doing is wrong, shouldn't that tell you that you are probably wrong? You need to comment on your cell as soon as you get the chance to, and since you have been "taking notes on your cell" it should be easy for you to do so.

Furthermore, why do you disagree with what rayn just said?


I disagree that temporarily holding back your ideas is scummy but I do agree never telling is scummy. (Mainly I had this idea that if i got scum I'd just tunnel my own group and do nothing else and I wanted to avoid letting people do that as mafia and this sounded like a good way to do it so I'm probably just arguing cause I want my idea to be right)


Two things:

#1: Is holding back your ideas hindering scum's abilities to play properly or is there any reason that you are actually holding back your ideas? If not, then you are only hindering town's ability to read you, so post what you think of your cell.

#2 Like rayn said, it is EASIEST to read your cell, since you have a 50% chance of being correct therefore it is also hardest to hide within as mafia, since the people within your cell have a higher shot to read you. So you need to post about these people.

But after reading your filter you do seem more town like when we played that Newbie game forever ago with posts like this one:

Do you consider yourself unreadable?

~rayn

I consider myself perfectly readable. I am town, thus I know that I am town.

I consider myself pretty easy to read by others, if I had to guess what my town/scum features would be, it's that I get a lot more frustrated as town. In Noir I was a lot more logical and active than usual because I had 5 people to calm me down and streamline my behavior. With town I either get mad and stop caring (Nuclear Winter), or tunnel someone because I can't be arsed to do anything else (Roulette).


I hate things like the bolded part, just doesn´t add anything. Everybody claims to be town.

The analysis on yourself is interesting, I think it is very difficult to read peope who know their "town/scum features"


Neither does your post. What exactly is the point of it? Are you calling sentinel scum because he is "claiming town"?



I had highlighted that post by mderg in my normal read through and your comment I agree that his non conclusion on Sentinal is really weird like he wants to paint him as scum without actually using those words. Makes me think Mderg scummy Sentinal town. I like that you seemed to on the same thought chain as me here. So atm in my cell I'm leaning HF=town and Mderg=scum.

As far as your filter what do you read on slam Balla? Do you read him like rayn based off tone?


You thought I was scum before reading my filter? Why? This makes no sense if you thought Slam was scum. Maybe i'm misreading the "but after reading your filter".

I don't read Slam off of tone, I read him off of content. I'm 2/3 with him. When he posts mostly gibberish he is town when he posts somewhat related to the game he is mafia. That didn't work for me last game so I will be more careful, right now he is town but he's had a string of posts that are making me doubt that. Plus it's not that unreasonable for him to have been changing that meta on purpose.

Which leads into LSB: he has talked a lot about setup and pushed a prplhz mafia angle for a little while. From what I've seen so far it is not totally unreasonable for him to be mafia. We will see what he does.

Last thing to you poofter: you just directly contradicted what you have been preaching for the past couple of hours and asked me about someone in my cell even though from your PoV I shouldn't be commenting on people in my cell. What gives?



I don't know you and rayn's alignment so I have to consider that you're attacking my plan because you're scum and know its a good idea or that you're town and my idea is shit. So The "after reading your filter" bit was me saying "well shit I read rayn as town and Balla now looks town maybe my idea was shit" so before you were neutral and I wanted you to comment on my idea after the read you both look town and so maybe my idea was bad. I have formally abandoned my plan because apparently it was bad so might as well use my town reads to figure out what they think and find out their views. You and rayn could be mafia and I'm misreading you both but since I've only played with a couple people in this game you and rayn being 2 of them and you were both town in the games I've played getting a read on you both as town and trusting your judgement seems like the best course of action. Basically I reassessed after reading your filter and am willing to try it you guys way.


Ok then, so moving on: what are your thoughts on Holyflare and mderg?



So I liked your point on mderg he seemed to make a really weird point that led me to believe he is scum and sentinal is town if thats the case. He wasn't willing to call sentinel scum off what he said but like wanted someone else to which is scummy.

As for HF he has 2 posts that cause me worry.

Of course you donät like it because you are prolly mafia.

God Rayn you are like super fucking infuriating when you don't listen to me. Like I don't really care what your alignment is right now but I'm not going to listen to your scum reads anymore. Like you half bother explaining them and then you always ignore me just like you did on Toad. The sad thing is I'm pretty sure Palmer's going to phone it in and the you and HF are going to drive town into the dirt. Like I'm not sure that you're scum but regardless of your alignment what you're doing is a real dick move and I don't appreciate it.


So just to confirm with scum geript here. Plam, rayn, hf confirmed town now right?



Then right after that.

Hate to say but yes I would confirm you three...


Why confirm palmar?
List of what he's done :

1. Said this day is shit and he wants to afk it
2. Agrees with rayn that we ashould be scum hunting today
3. Asks to be mayor repeatedly instead

Is that towny to you slam?

The last quote is from Holy's scum game in cultured mafia. Scum want town atmosphere to be one of two things, lax, or utterly chaotic. Lax especially if they feel they're in a good position, which Holy definitely is considering his cell mates are relative unknowns. Scum holy likes to present easy options, lets him minimize his contribution to the game, I'm not impressed with him so far, so hes my pick for scum over mdern.


here about holyflare are that interesting. I'd like to see how this read develops as the thread atmosphere evolves and Holy contributes more (which is why in general i'm not a fan of early cases based solely on meta).

@gumshoe I think your logic train on mderg being town because other people saying he is kinda weird. I mean looking at your list you are listed there but your quote doesn't seem to favor his alignment. The other people on the list I town read Balla, Rayn, and Geript. Geript the least so. HF is weird to me but hes my cellmate so thats kinda obvious. I disagree with your statement that this makes mderg auto town even if you use this 50% of players think this 1 guy is mafia thing so hes auto town your logic leaves out the fact that a lot of the time mafia tends to lurk and be inactive so there is more of a chance that the active players are mafia so I dislike this read and makes me think it might be you defending a teammate.

What is your ideal evidence? What kind of case sways you? Wouldn't you agree that town are often just as likely to trip up as scum?

I was curios why he defended steveling, I am less curios about that now that rayn is most likely my adversary. Are you people really this blind? Or am I just talking to scum? This is a unique setup where every third person you talk to is red and swaths of people have gone out of their way to attack this guy, WHO WE KNOW is capable of suppar play.

As for the lurkers, they have straight up not started playing, that is fucking null and nothing else, they might be scum or town, seriusly doesn't matter and that argument of yours is awful. Point is, half the actives think mdern is scum for bieng mdern, and half the actives are scum, I'm sure there's townies on the wagon too but there are almost certainly scum who judging by the qoutes WANTED to be on him.

Also I don't think you understand scum tehpoofer, they are craven, and would never in a million years step up to defend such a weak buddy if so many townies were on him, I can't honestly bilieve you'd think that, so my guess is your just scared that it'll be your head on the block if not mderns.

@gumshoe that being said as for scum the biggest one for me is prplhz I said earlier in a post he said he wants people to just focus on the people in their groups as thats their best chance of hitting mafia. Statistically it is the best chance but people should read everyone. I also really dislike the post where he claims hes being ignored to me thats like he wants to be read as town for posting and is mad his work is going to waste.
