Slam stop throwing votes left and right. If u think someone is scum just bold it in this thread. Votes matter at all times, more than just letting people know who you want to lynch in x hours.

Also HMMMMM I wonder why he did not explain his reads. Maybe because when somebody goes into detail, people bitch about the length of it. (this happens across multiple games) Why do you not ask him about why he thinks x is scum or why y is town rather than telling him to explain why he is not scum because what he did is considering scummy by you. Asking him to go into detail about his reads will give more info than.... prove that you are not scum.

And I made a mistake. Thought kush was in this game.

I'm at work
I'm showing that I'm here and lurking, but not fully committed to solving this game yet. I am more than happy to lynch anyone at this point, because lynching > not lynching in most cases, as long as we don't lynch me cause I know I"m not mafia. At some point, someone's gonna have to step up and grab the reigns. I'll probably do that during n1 or d2.

I've heard that "sorry, I can't contribute guys, I'm totes mega-swamped at work" excuse before
I'm just not in mafia chat this time to see you post "so should i post or just stay quiet"

i would love it if people would post a list detailing all of their reads in a semi-comprehensive format, this way we have all the reads in one place, and its easier to tell exactly what people are thinking. Also catching scum later on in the game its easier to see how their logic has changed in order to see inconsistancy.

So without further ado, i shall go first!

Snickers:



really not a fan of this post and the one beforehand. It seems like he's being super try-hard. Not a big fan of him insulting people this early on in the game before things have really gotten serious. However the fact that he's being super try hard makes me think he could be town. However, i wouldn't mind lynching him just because it seems like he's a jerk, and i feel like i would have more fun playing without him. I also don't like snickers chocolate bars.

EchelonTee:
+ Show Spoiler +

Honestly i'm not a fan of EchelonTee, In a IML setting i feel like people who vote earlier are actually more scummy. For a mafia to be one of the last people to vote it's too obvious, I may have contributed a list of my gut reads, but i still view that as a considerable contribution to town. It also prompted more discusion instead of people posting very little. Which i am quite satisfied with.

leaning scum:

StrongandBig:

+ Show Spoiler +

I really really like strongandbig for this post. He's asking serious questions and trying to get the game figured out. Also doesn't like snickers for the same reasons. We both got the try hard feeling from snickers but camae to slightly different conclusions. I like his questioning of me and why i put robik as top town. I've played with robik on dailymafia, and the games that i've played with robik when he's super trolly like this he usually ends up VT. I'm really only giving him a day pass, and i expect him to start contributing more d2 or n1

overall: town

Sinami:

+ Show Spoiler +

I really don't like sinami, his filter is literally useless, quotes some post of Ray going /in and then goes alirhgt and votes for him.

leaning very scummy.

Chairman Ray:
I like his posts alot, they have a good mix of trolliness but also comes back to the game to ask serious questions and figure it out. I'm not sure how i like the deflection off of snickers. With only two mafia, i doubt you would ever want to bus d1.
very town: however if snickers ever gets lynched and flips red then i would take a look at Ray.

Slam:
something about Slam's post just rubs me the wrong way.


If you think something is scummy you should call it out as scummy, not go its usually seen as scummy, in order to try and put it into other peoples heads. I feel like Slam is trying to very subtly push his agenda without being overly obvious about it. He then switches his vote from snickers to me. And asks me why am i mafia with snicker. If he really believes snicker's is scum why is he switching his vote. I also just hate his posting style (lololo ) and the fact that he keeps on claiming hypocrisy. however i really hate people who push on people for stuff like inconsistancies, and get caught up in keeping everything straight as possible.

Gut feeling and after seeing his other posts, leaning mafia stil:

Robik:
I explained in strongandbigs profile, but it was more of a joke that i called him top town, its pretty much an obvious attempt to pocket him this early.

thepoofter:
Every forum game i've played with him or watched him play, he comes out of the gates super hard and just spews town all over everyones faces and keyboards. The fact that he hasn't I think is also very scummy of him. However i will give him the benefit of the doubt, as i think he's playing like 3 mafia forum games atm and playing video mafia at the same time.

I feel like i got everyone, if anyone has any questions please ask. Ill be back a few hours before voting ends.

ok so there's like 9 hours left. given time zone disparities it makes sense imo to start actually trying to consolidate on a lynch now.

I will lynch the following people, in order of preference:

1. Snickers
2. Chairman Ray
2. mysterymeat
3. Sinani
3. Poofter

I will not lynch the other four people in this game, even at the cost of a no-lynch.

Everyone should express multiple people they would be willing to consolidate on, so we can make sure we actually get a lynch today.

I mean, if you decide to mislynch me for a lack of effort then that's your prerogative. I have promised effort moving forward and I will uphold my promise.

Lynching me is a bad strategy anyway, because I'm really really fucking good at portraying town and making myself obvious town. This will also occur sometime between n1 and d2.

Additionally, I have said the towniest thing in this game. There has been no one that has said something townier. That statement was that I would lynch ANYONE but myself today. Literally anyone. As long as we don't no-lynch and don't lynch me I'll be happy.

No one else has made that claim, and I'm town for it.

I'm cool killing ANYONE! LITERALLY. If I had a mafia partner, I'd be happy killing him too lol. I just want us to kill someone today so we don't have to no lynch against later in the game.

During the day, he was first mainly on Chairman Ray. That seems to be his strongest read. He was oh Tehpoofter for a bit but that seemed mainly OMGUS. Not sure on that.

In the night he goes on snickers hard. He seems to primarily advocate a snickers + CR team.


I'll think about this more but it looks like we have another long day cycle ahead of us. I'm primarily curious how Tehpoof thinks about all this since he seemed pretty confident Robik was mafia.

The case on poofter is that him being pushed by robik is a much more reasonable cause for robik to be killed than to frame you, plus robins case on iPod. Your think about looking at mislynched players over night killed ones is stupid.

Also, in case you decide to mislynch me, remember that tomorrow you should go ahead and elect a town mayor. Someone who town unanimously decides is town. That person should have a great say and final say in who gets lynched (after much deliberation). The reason for this is that town needs to unite and all vote to lynch people. It is pretty clear that we are incompetent and incapable of doing so without one, as it's 72hours into the game and there hasn't even been a semblance of a wagon on someone -- there also hasn't been a good case against ANYONE ---- not even mine really against poofter or CR

If you think I was answering questions here (robik did not think so) that is why he "thought" I was scum. And if you read my other post about it, If he actually "thought" I was scum he would of made a case for me and posted it before his death since he thought he was going to die. He said he was unsure about me then, I was magically "scum" for disagreeing with him.

So three reasons why he did not actually think I am scum, and he was just getting angry. This is why scum killed him. People see that I was the last person he was posting to a lot and called scum. Scum know people do not read carefully. Exactly how I was the only one that caught ET doing something that made no sense.

You are the other person robik pushed. I have more reason though to suspect snickers because he has paranoia like none I have seen.

The bold literally makes no sense to me. So wishy washy. Sinani still my top scum read. He does absolutley nothing day one excpet for his vote post which is indictive of mafia. Bh warns him of activity... BAM he posts in the thread. Says there is not much to comment on..... So two super scummy things.. one still scummy but not much as the other.

Like I said in the begining slam, is one of those people you do not lynch all game because of his playstyle. People were arguing this about sinani too but sinani's playstyle is more scummy to me. And we may only have this lynch and the next, so we should probably make more of it than "their play is scummy"

Also slam, Ofc I am paranoid. I knew people were going to think robik was calling me scum and logic dictates that mafia kill people calling them scum, Et comments after the nk and says he was pushing me. I even explained once (before ets posts)how he was not calling me scum. Then I explain again and poofter then says it. So i explain a third time now poofter understands.

To people talking about me going after meta a lot in other games; I couldn't comment on meta for a few players I wanted to, because their most recent / only other game was an ongoing game (namely mysterymeat and tehpoof). And aside, the only people I've played with / remember playing with are sinani and Strongandbig.

Pooft why are you going after sinani?


Look at this.

Pooft if everyone is scum then you are, someone who accuses everyone is usually actually scum.

Like I want you to list everyone you have not accused this game

you or sinani. it's funny though because you saying


resonates with me really well atm

The problem with sinani is that he can be an easy mislynch when he plays ultra lurky. I'm not done going through his past games; his most recent games were all town. One of them he was mislynched D1 (world cup) with acitivity posting style sorta similar to this games. The other two (boardwalk, Order 66) he was a lot more active and more obvious town.

Overall though I think he is scum, because his posting in this game is SUPER SPARSE and uncaring, even by the standards of htis low post game. One of my first games I remember being on his scum team and he was similarly super hyper lurky.

It's funny isn't it; sometimes the game is too much spam and that sucks crap, can't remember anything. Then you get the opposite which blows as well

I'm voting sinani. it's possible he is bored townie but the extreme lurkyness can't be overlooked imo. In such a lurky game, scum being lurkster is a viable strat
