GOODKARMA: Who should we make the CEO of /towncircle Co. for the rest of the game? Also be sure to name two successors since our leader(s) will surely be killed off. Actually name 3 since that's how many nightkills the mafia have before we win


Do you seriously think we stand a snowflake's prayer in hell of getting through this game without ensuring everyone consolidates? What I suggested is one way to ensure a non-scum influenced lynch. There's enough scummy people in this game right now that we're very unlikely to go 3 for 3 otherwise. Otherwise scum just goes "yeah this guy looks scummy," steers a lynch, and we lose gg.

As it is, it's a very hard battle. I kinda doubt we recover and win this. But /sheep is the best thing we can do. And if you /sheep the dude who just died, you guarantee a townie-led lynch. And if you have that dude post the desired lynch target just before deadline, scum nightkill couldn't have possibly been influenced by directing a mislynch based on people's reads. There's no doubt other ways to go about this, but I like mine the bestest. If you want to come up with your own method feel free to, but I'd encourage you to think up something instead of berating me and fast.

It's pretty clear you're going pants-on-head right now. Quite honestly, if you're going to be super-bad and disregard any suggestions to ensure some semblance of consolidation and as a result, ensure we lose, I really don't have the energy to argue right now. I can't be bothered to dive in and solve this game anything I say will probably get ignored anyway.

People have this super-stupid idea that if you don't post a ton you don't have anything meaningful to say. And so we get caught up in this shit-post war when anything off the top of your mind gets thrown onto paper and posted. It doesn't do anyone any favors, makes the game unreadable, and hurts town. This is probably my last game for at least a while. It was nowhere near this bad before, and I honestly can't understand how it ever got this way. Only playing limited post games if I play in the future 20+ page shitfilters aren't worth my time.


I don't get your logic at all, confirmed town isn't any more likely to be right than unconfirmed town. Instead of blindly sheeping confirmed town, instead we must use logic and reasoning to deduce the 3 scums.

In order I want to lynch Holyflare then goodkarma. I'm kinda waffly on my Haru and justanothertownie reads and so I don't mind waiting until the end for that. But I'm more confident in Holyflare and goodkarma than I've been in any read I can remember all game; if I'm right on them then I think my reads on everyone else pretty well fall into place by associations; and if I'm wrong then we lose anyway, so I would rather focus attention on the reads I feel good about and see if I can get them lynched or if I have another change of heart.


Your case on HF can be boiled down to one sentence: he's good but somehow not dead. Your jat case is basically an association case, so if HF is scum then jat is scum. The goodkarma case I can agree with, now that I think about it I don't really seem to have noticed him post anything important or striking, and that's a good mafia heuristic. Once we lynch goodkarma and he flips scum, we can then see whether HF gets nightkilled (after you presumably).

I'm sheeping HF's read. He's the dead townie, and sheeping dead townie was my plan. He did what I suggested, and I'm following my plan.

From everything I've seen, he's a better player than you and the rest of the people here. He totally deserves to be sheeped.

That you're still alive after being townread by many here is also more than a little strange. To be perfectly honest, minus this huge spurt of activity super-late into the game, I don't recall you saying anything meaningful. You've trolled for multiple pages early into the game, deliberabely spammed on numerous occasion and called yourself townie for doing it (showing awareness of the whole nonsensical "he posts a lot therefore he's town" meta people have been following here), and you really haven't tunneled people much. Like you've kinda just gone with the flow and let things happen. I clearly remember you telling me in chat when we hydra'ed you like to tunnel people. I haven't seen anything like this this game. You've been fairly lost much of the game, and I'm convinced that it's been deliberate.


HF clearly had reasons for thinking you're scum if he dies and I agree. You don't just troll-post "kill Eden if I die" at the zero-minute mark before night ends. There was literally ZERO chance that scum had the option to act on that post, and as such HF in his last dying breath gave town a chance to actually push a proper scum lynch today. That chance is you, and I'm sticking with it. Everyone who's town should join it's our best bet.


That's a complete misrepresentation of Eden's filter. From a cursory reread of Eden's filter (which I admit is too long to study in detail), I get the feeling of a tryhard town solving the game through methods conventional and unconventional. I totally don't get any scumfeels off his filter. You are taking his trolling/post-count-inflation as scum actions when those actions are very non-indicative of alignment. Also your /sheep is just a cop-out so you can borrow HF's name to advance your own interests, which I very much believe is mafia agenda.

It already is Les Mafia.

Only difference is I gave you guys a method to consolidate this time, and you couldn't be fucking bothered to consider it.


I considered it and my conclusion is that you're scum.

People I'm 100% sure town:

People I'm 99% sure town:
Eden1892, WaveofShadow

People I'm not that sure of:
JAT

Probably scum:
Obi, Haru

Scum, lynch this fuck now:
goodkarma


It's time to recall the lessons of Palmar: if you didn't notice him, he's probably scum. If you noticed him for something really bad, he's probably just a shitty town.

At this point I cannot find a reason to believe Eden or WoS could be mafia. The level of their analysis and effort is not something that I think can be faked. I also *remember* what they said, wave made those 2 epic analysis posts on HF and haru, while eden is eden and he's been pushing reads all game.
JAT is an enigma. He *could* be scum. He's on the townier side for me but it's worrying that without rereading his filter I can't actually remember what he had ever said. He might be a scum that's good at not being noticed.
The remaining 3:
I'm really sure of goodkarma. I can't remember at all what he said in the previous days but it certainly wasn't anything towny.

Upon reread, things he did on day 1:

Defend haru with some handwavey 'mafia generally don't rage hardcore when tunnelled' argument
Ask people 'what is your read'
Sheep onto poofter (We now know poofter is town), then only giving reasoning that's pretty much what everyone else said, after being pressured to give reasoning.
Sheep onto vivax


Look at the case on vivax:

While I still like lynching Poof it kinda is a policy lynch at this point. Not sure how much more I should have expected from the guy...

Vivax, on the other hand, has done some substantially scummy stuff.

abou vivax:
Try to understand this post if you dare (I don't suggest it). I spent about 5 minutes on it reading it again and again. So far I think it has something to do with goodkarma being scummy because he didn't read the scumminess of his two scum reads equally, and that is scummy because of some other reason I can't understand. But the fact that he thought through all this shit makes him town.

It seems there is a strong difference in Goodkarma's play regarding his two scumreads. I feel he ended up focusing much more on Haru than on WoS, and that after criticizing Haru for nullreading WoS for that.

Like, the one thing GoodKarma had to expect in his opinion was that Haru would scumread WoS with a -1.
I think that if they wanted to nullread somebody as opposed to scumreading him, then scum would prefer ścumreading the townie and null reading the other scum.

If that's what GK might think, too, then he must just feel as strongly scummy about Wave than he does for Haru, cause just then nullreading WoS might show a scum motive.
However all we are left with Goodkarma vs Wave is:

Your scumread and dunno read have been pretty active in thread. Kinda curious you haven't had anything to say to them.


WoS wrote this before GK posted that:

Scum: Haru---his defense of me is awkward and he immediately backtracks on it when given an out. Rubs me in completely the wrong direction


So they both scumread the same guy, Wave says what he found scummy about Haru, but GoodKarma still asks him that.
Besides, I don't really like the reason WoS is using there for scumreading Haru, so I'm surprised Goodkarma wouldn't also try to get more interactions with WoS aside from that sort of loaded post.



This quote you used Kush was constructed 8 hours after my last post of the night. Don't you find it a bit odd that he'd call me out for not talking to Wave when I was clearly asleep?

I seeded suspicions in this post, but given Vivax didn't ever come back I never followed up.:

Not sure yet, waiting for Wave to deliver something more substantial at the moment.

As for you, I have a hard time telling if you're just saying stuff to keep your story straight, you seem to try kinda hard to stay very consistent in your play but I'm not sure if it's me being tunneled or a fact.

Hence it would be helpful for me to know how you want to read Haru if you feel that he's super scummy on one and townie on the other hand. How do you get to the conclusion that his reaction was townie, for example?


I actually can't recall a game where you haven't thought I'm scum. You must really really hate my playstyle...

I've told you exactly how I've read Haru. How a person comes off towny is a semi-subjective thing. Generally when a person curses and screams at their tunneler in the way Haru did it's a town response. It's not a foolproof read by any means, but reads of this ilk have historically served me well. If you're a skeptic, just go with my latter reason (he easily could have just made a scumread up). It's totally valid here. Haru isn't a good lynch today.

And saying you don't know who you want to lynch when the thread's already ~40 pages, and the day's half gone is pretty weak. If you were forced to choose now, who would it be? This question really isn't that hard.


I would be lying if I said I had no scumreads. I'm simply not confident into them yet. Still in the process of deciding on you and WoS, and that's evident, so don't call my play "weak" just cause I don't go guns blazing on you guys, which is something you should actually value if you are town, since I give myself space for reconsideration.

Implying I'm doing something scummy with what I'm doing in your regards isn't something I would expect from a townie in your position to be honest. You see this guy talking to his persons of interest, but not dead set on lynching them, and the first thing coming to your mind is that the play is "weak"?


There's something to be said for still deciding, but there's also something to be said for sticking to safe stances. You haven't outright accused me of being scum, so I'm going to just assume you think I'm town.

On August 05 2014 10:50 Vivax wrote:
Btw what's the super scummy stuff you talk about in regard to Haru, when I look at your filter I see you in conversation with him and when I asked you, you said you found it a bit odd what he was doing.

Not really a post where you showcase A to B how what he was doing was super scummy so if you really feel that way it might be a good time to display what it is.


I've just told you Haru's probably town. Not wasting my time discussing this with you, as if it wasn't already obvious.


The guy has been "pressuring" people for a good portion of the game, but he's never really called people scum (until super-recently in a sheepish way). I find this really odd. The Vivax that liked to tunnel me in times past had no trouble doing so.

It's also worth mentioning that he hasn't really touched up on his old reads all that much. Especially me, which is significant given how much time he dedicated to pressuring me before.

In Marv I trust. Sheep sheep.

I really wish I could elaborate more, but this deadline is super awful for me. I'll try to pop in a little before the deadline but don't expect elaborate posts of any kind from me until evening.

One more thing.:

It should be considered that Haru hadn't really shared meaningful reads until his listpost. No matter how he presented his reads it would have looked scummy given all the time that had past. Keep that in mind.


Something's just *wrong* with that post now that I look at it with the knowledge that vivax is town. The logic doesn't sit well with me. The case is literally 'vivax hasn't been tunnelling', which is another handwavey argument that ignores all the reasons why vivax might behave like he did.

Day 2 is just him sheeping onegu but that's not alignment indicative, literally everyone sheeped onegu.

Day 3 is him sheeping poofter and me. Poofter died.

Night 3 he explains why everyone should sheep:

has this guy done literally anything other than sheeping? I expect townies to be able to use their own brains. mafia on the other hand...nothing beats a good sheep. That way you can blame the shepherd when it inevitably mislynches town.

Stalling? That's a pretty stupid reason. You do realize I'm only here the next few hours right? And that evenings are the only times I can spend in earnest to this game beyond the cursory random post.

WRONG

I probably spend less time on mafia than you do (it reflects in the number of pages in my filter) and I've been on the noose for quite a while. And I actually haven't just gone about stalling, I actually make reads.

This entire post is wrong.
You try again.


It seems pretty right to me.

Let's set the logic out:

Definition: A sheep is a vote that is placed due to trusting someone else. (1)

From 1) it follows that a sheep vote needs little explanation because the explanation is given by the trusted player. (2)

Assumption: Votes should come with an explanation. (3)

From (3) it follows that a non-sheep vote, due to not having an explanation from another source, requires its own explanation. (4)

Assumption: Explanation requires a considerable amount of words. (5)

From (2) (5) and (4) it follows that a sheep vote contains less text than a non sheep vote. (6)

Fact: A post that contains more text takes more time to read. (7)

Assumption: The longer it takes to read something, the more you remember that such text existed. (8)

From (6), (7), (8) it follows that sheep votes are less noticeable than non-sheep votes.

Anyway that is tangential to the discussion at hand, which is that goodkarma is chainsawing us now because he's caught.

I would disagree. Sheeping grabs tons of attentions for the reasons you've cited. For a disciple of Palmar you could sure do better using his suggestions in context.

Actually I disagree.
It depends entirely on the context of the sheep, who you're sheeping, why, etc.
For example some of the time you can get away with sheeping for no reason while other times if you don't provide a reason you get torn apart.

GD, (I think it was in this game that) marv said something along the lines of knowing when to sheep and when not to is important for town (or townie, or something). DO you believe GK deliberately chose to sheep badly or did what a great deal of other townies have done in this game and simply fucked up?
Can you prove it either way?




GK.
Is Eden scum?



So WoS

I have 3 basically confirmed towns in my mind who are alive, which is me, you and eden. None of you nor me shept extensively.
vivax didn't sheep, onegu didn't get to sheep before he died, artanis shept once and then got replaced. poofter was hard scumreading me for most of the game, but he gave his reasons, definitely not deliberately sheeping.

Everyone who is confirmed town shept once. But there's only one person who has been sheeping for 3 days in a row. Once? Fucked up. Three times? Doing it on purpose.

SO what you're saying then is he is scum for sheeping onto the wrong wagon three times, correct?
Is he the only one who did so?


Correct, and correct. I checked the scummy people's filter too just now, none of the scummy people sheeped multiple times either.

EBWOP it makes sense that not all scum mass sheep, it would be too easy if all scum used the same strategy.
