Initially, you think I'm weak. So you call me mafia.

Then you realize, I am strong. You must try to win my favor.

I am sorry Robik, I don't believe in violence. But we must investigate. Investigation shall be performed using a rope and a tree. I hope this does not come between us.

I am town, thus I'm trying to solve the game. I don't think you're a strong player. I was told by Mattchew that you're good, but I didn't see any good town play from you in Foundations and I was able to determine that you were mafia based off of one measly sentence in Heavyweight Champ.


Appeal to ego, noted.

Cool. You can proceed to try to mislynch me now. Lead the town in the wrong direction. GOGOGOGOGO!

S'ok. if you're town, which I don't think you are, you can justify my mislynch after by saying "well he was scummy" just like all the other trashcan players do.

Well then you need to change your opinion of what scummy is, cause I'm not scummy and I'm not scum.

You are clearly smart so you know mafia is a game of incomplete information and thus townie attempting to lynch a townie is unavoidable. So why are you saying something like this? It looks off to me; something a carleess mafia is more likely to say than a smart townie.

As for the rest, the best way to win as either alignment is by making friends, even if just for the duration of the game.

That's all fine and dandy from your POV, but like -- I don't play that way. So you won't find me sucking up to people and trying to befriend them during the game. I'm gonna be aggressive. I'm gonna take weird fucking stances that no one is going to understand and I'm going to tell you what I'm thinking when I'm thinking it.

As for the first part of what you're saying -- I know mislynches happen, but fuck that. I never wanna mislynch and I never wanna be mislynched.

You do realise that its possible to change your playstyle? Is it brtter to find all the scum in day 1 and get mislynched day one or to slowly convince people to lynch your targets since you profess to have awesome reads.

chill the fuck down, nobody is being personal.

"I'm generally just happy if I can post a list that wins if you lynch from the bottom up (actually getting them lynched is totally overrated)"

"The real battle is fought and won in the postgame."

I'm not influential cause my reads don't make sense to people and they're hard to explain/take seriously. I'll post a list at some point with my reads. Then I'll die. No one will listen to me for the aforementioned reasons and after the game I'll just direct you to my reads post.

Wanna lynch balla?

I'd have to read him first. the only posts I remember are his first RL one and then the latest one. But whats-his-face just brought up a "good" point about the role neutral posts. That kinda makes the situation more difficult. But yes, if I remember correctly, I thought that balla was scummy to start the day

I did not claim this to be the case. Being fair is always nice though, for the people of course. What is interesting is not the fairness of the lynch but the attempts to make the lynch unfair.


Then wagon of justice.

All in all, I would think he was scummy, but taking into account pregame, I would hold off judgement temporarily to see how he plays moving forward

when you say like, do you mean read him as town or do you mean actually think that what he's saying has substance. Cause Dandelion might be the worst player on TL

This post reaks of town to me. I guess it's just more towny in my eyes to be self-deprecating.

Yeah. I read and came to the same conclusion. Would you rather have had me put in effort to read him, after I said I would and then posted nothing instead, so that people wouldn't know where I stand?

That's the thing - I still don't know where you stand. You read his filter, made that post, and still don't have an opinion.

I don't think it makes you scum - but with people thinking you're scum making contentless filler posts looks really bad. I'm concerned for your well-being brah.

Cause I don't have an opinion. If I were to analyze him from just his posts since the game started then I'd think he was scummy. If I take into account the pre-game shit that Palmar fucking created to fucking waste everyone's fucking time and fuck everyone's reads, then I think it's absolutely role neutral and not indicative of anything.

Because frankly anything anyone said pregame I'm throwing out with regard to reading their alignment because it was all done and said before alignments went out. If anything I'd say his insistence on playing his "character" leans scummier because he doesn't want to attract suspicion by going /against/ what he said pregame (like this guy).

I don't know. I haven't thought about it and didn't think about it at all until that dude just brought it up

You are clearly smart so you know mafia is a game of incomplete information and thus townie attempting to lynch a townie is unavoidable. So why are you saying something like this? It looks off to me; something a carleess mafia is more likely to say than a smart townie.

As for the rest, the best way to win as either alignment is by making friends, even if just for the duration of the game.

That's all fine and dandy from your POV, but like -- I don't play that way. So you won't find me sucking up to people and trying to befriend them during the game. I'm gonna be aggressive. I'm gonna take weird fucking stances that no one is going to understand and I'm going to tell you what I'm thinking when I'm thinking it.

As for the first part of what you're saying -- I know mislynches happen, but fuck that. I never wanna mislynch and I never wanna be mislynched.

You do realise that its possible to change your playstyle? Is it brtter to find all the scum in day 1 and get mislynched day one or to slowly convince people to lynch your targets since you profess to have awesome reads.

chill the fuck down, nobody is being personal.

"I'm generally just happy if I can post a list that wins if you lynch from the bottom up (actually getting them lynched is totally overrated)"

"The real battle is fought and won in the postgame."

I'm not influential cause my reads don't make sense to people and they're hard to explain/take seriously. I'll post a list at some point with my reads. Then I'll die. No one will listen to me for the aforementioned reasons and after the game I'll just direct you to my reads post.

i thought you said you like winning

Although I can't verify, not sure i'm town.

TMI = too much info?

Did I TMI when I called you out as mafia instantly? You still give me 0 fucking credit. Fucking pathetic

Initially, you think I'm weak. So you call me mafia.

Then you realize, I am strong. You must try to win my favor.

I am sorry Robik, I don't believe in violence. But we must investigate. Investigation shall be performed using a rope and a tree. I hope this does not come between us.

I mean. If you are town then you're trying to lynch another town, so that's playing against your win-con. I know mine says something along the lines of I win with town.

I don't need to win anyone's favor. I'm not here to make friends. I'm not here to make anyone feel good about themselves. I'm here because I like competition and because I want to win.

i dont know what you're doing but it sounds like you're either playing next-level scum play or trying to justify your own dogmatic view of how a "townie" should play and if you lose it's everyone else's fault.

it's like you're a dota2 player who believes he's stuck in "elo hell"

Nah. I'm like the support player that plays well and gets his carry like 600+ gpm, but then dies and gets blamed for the carry not being able to carry.

so change your playstyle. play a higher-impact hero. be the solo mid of this town if you want to win, but if you'd rather have "i told you so"s than wins admit it and gtfo cause this is a team game

It's belaboring to keep explaining this lol:

it's difficult to do when you clear people because they said "the killing has become the killed" or condemn them for saying " whether or not I am mafia or town"

I don't go on and on about stuff. I give my reads and that's that. If I don't like the direction we're going I'll say something. If I do, I'll prolly just sit back

Anyways, for the record, I'm not really interested in lynching Balla right this minute. Mostly because everything he's done has fit with his pre-game "roll".

Random lynch = 100% neutral. He rolled true neutral.

I don't think it was constructive and the whole bit was dumb, but I just see it as more of him having fun with his roll than being scum.

Totes okay with waiting until he says more.


Nah i totally disagree with this. What better way to play as scum saying "i said I would do this pregame". I feel like townBalla would have more responsibilty as town than to play like this.

so your read on balla is a meta-read based on the fact that you think he would roleplay as scum and not as town? can you give me some evidence or reasoning to back up this meta read? i have never played with balla before.

other than this metaread i dont see anything in balla's filter that looks actively scummy rather than just not playing the game, and it's early enough in the day that we don't have to start worrying about that yet

Balla's meta is that he plays as town. If he is mafia he either does not play or if he tries he gets caught.

if it didnt come across in my sandrojism comment

i dont like people like that

syllo is playing for real so far this game though so i should stop needling him. my b



anyway i still don't think killing is town. who's with me?

Killing is DEFINITELY town. If you think otherwise, go read Foundations.

The tl mafia world heavyweight championship belt.


Oh shit this actually gives me a great idea!

Just finished pg 52, but this x100. I am starting to believe balla could be scum. I think he'd be more nervous to post as scum than as town.

yamato's bit on rayn not making townreads 5 minutes in reads like yamato town, silly thing to say if scum, and not in a good-silly way. Carefree comment, nonsense read based on nonsense reads, town. Especially since rayn thinks/thought that yamato might be mafia for being serious, yamato super town.

iamp i don't really think townreading people because of their reaction to obvious joke post was as easy comment is legit.

Uh ok. I use it a ton and I don't really get burned by it. Not really worried about it anyway as Yamato is super easy to read. But lets not try and give iamp advice he kind of knows what he is doing.

But do you know how to bake a pretty cake?
I believe it's a piece of cake, if the way is hazy. I was once told that I had to "do the cooking by the book" and also ordered to "break it down bitch ... drop dat ass down low then pick that muthafucka up"


gumshoe remarkably overzealous.

everything else when skimmed does nothing for me or my pee-pee.

red part: nono. yamato would try to read me as town but he would also "try to read me" as scum. either a lie or a very lazy comment
green part: another good one, or rather.. bad one. yamato's read or "read" is not nonsense. my reads are definitely not nonsense because i already said i am srs. so austin are you calling me a liar? or are you making the same lazy "didn't read properly, didn't think for a second and i admit it, but anyways i am taking a stance" opening post you made in last game?
blue part: how does me thinking yamato is serious make yamato more town? this makes no sense.

best lynch 2014.


1: Is it not possible you two have diffrent opinions on yamato? That and you admit it could just be a lazy comment 0_0 why does this make him scum?

2: Hes saying that early reads based off early reads are meh, but the fact that yamato feels comfterble making those reads is townie, which I tend to agree with, whats the issue here?

3: I completely agree with you on this one, your read has nothing to do with Yamato's alignment, it's not like he magically becomes based off how your feeling / : still, thats sloppy reasoning, not scum reasoning, mafia play is not necessarily sloppy.

Question: Do I have to sleep on the couch again tonight?

Gumshoe might be scum.
