What makes you say that? Personal meta, or a read you've got? This is a very strange insight, one that a townie typically wouldn't have...

Be careful with that. The last person who posted 6 scum reads had a wagon started against him for it. 
For real though, 6? Who? Also, do you play "townie until proven scum" or "scummy until proven town?"

Mah nigga. +1 town point.
So how do you weigh in on the meta topic, then? Do you think RL mafia and forum mafia have similar metas, or would you consider them very different?

Welp, guess I have to take a closer look at this filter. Good thing my work day has been fairly slow so far.
Vivax, you seemed to have an issue with Templar's posts. Any thoughts, now that he's no longer among the posting?

You convince town to force me to vote outside the majority. It wouldn't have changed the outcome, and as a mafia player, if I were to fail a mission, it would mean my death. That's just as good as a lynch. He didn't even bother asking. In the meantime, while he is running around with his head cut off, he never even gives an opinion on Micchan.
I think bat's opinion of Micchan was implied when he was calling him the "easy lynch." This is further compounded by his response to Vivax:

1) Both and I think the two are related. <snip>
Aside from that, I want to personally high-five you for echoing my sentiments exactly. I thought something didn't feel right with bat's wagon, I just couldn't put my finger on what it was. I came very close to the same conclusion though, as quoted:

Why ask me these questions now and not when you are imagining they would be important? This discussion is meaningless now. He does have a point. To be honest, it looks like the way you started your wagon could have even been the point of a mission. Something like "be the only vote on a target" or "have X number of targets by EoD." I liked your reasoning on the kita case, but give me a reason to like it. Why not push your target, especially so close to deadline?
Though, the one aspect of missions that we seem to be assuming as true is that each mafia member has a different mission. Note the target distribution at the end of D1:

If we clean that up to only the people with votes on them at the end of the day, we get 27nb (1), batsnacks (2), Micchan (6), kitaman27 (1), and 3d12 (2) for a total of five lynch candidates.
If we back up a few hours, to the last vote count that was more than an hour before the deadline:

Three targets. Granted, the timeline between these two posts is extensive, but a few things stick out immediately to me: 1) Two wagons started up within eight hours of the deadline, both on quite flimsy cases, and both without much attempt to get others onboard (me and kita) 2) On each wagon, the people who supported/townread the wagoner neglected to vote with them (me on the kitawagon, 27nb on Obi's dicewagon) 3) No follow-up has been posted from either wagoner to try and rekindle the fire for D2
This is absolutely suspicious behavior, and seems far too similar to be a coincidence. kitaman, you're top town imo.

Heya Poofter. I was here, but I'm almost done with work. I'd suggest Templar's filter, if you're looking for a place to start. There's a few interesting tidbits in there that might be worth further investigation.
Also, what happened to that reads list you were going to post last night? You seemed fairly confident last time you posted one, so just because you wagoned a mislynch that means all your reads are off?

I'm still catching up on the thread, but I wanted to put this out there so far:
##Vote batsnacks

Sorry I didn't post last night. I literally fell asleep on my notes while I was writing my piece on bat.
I have a busy workload, and left all my notes at home, so if I find time I'll write up something quick. Otherwise, don't expect too much out of me for the next eight hours.

Expanding a little on the batsnacks vote, since I have a few minutes while one of my jobs is running:
Does anyone else find this suspicious?

First of all, why the host warning? This screams mission to me, since I doubt bat would have been warned for changing his vote otherwise. At least, I'm pretty sure we can vote an unlimited number of times before deadline. And why the defensive clarification? Obviously, he ended his post "not actually voting someone," since his last vote was an unvote. Why specify this to the host, unless it had something to do with a quantification?
Conclusion: batsnacks has a mission to vote X number of times today.
Any explanation for this, bat? Any clarification from √(-1)?

This is probably the strangest post I've seen from you yet, kita. Many potential missions have been pointed out by you and you've been really good at pointing out/heading off potential mission-like behavior. What makes you say this couldn't be true? Honestly, from the way your viewpoint changed without any clarification, it sounds like you're trying to pull me off of bat's trail. I'm townreading you so far, so give me a reason to keep doing so.

How about in a scenario with potential death hanging over whether or not you fulfill your mission? I believe a mod would warn bat for trying to cheese his mission and complete it in one post. Without clarification from √(-1) though, it's impossible to tell.
The way I see it, if this has nothing to do with a mission, √(-1) should clarify why bat was warned, since his behavior didn't seem outwardly worthy of a warning. If no clarification comes forth, I'm forced to believe it's to protect the integrity of the game, i.e. mission-related. Would you disagree?

More likely, its in incredibly pain for a host to record 10 votes and unvotes on a voting history.
So hitting CTRL+V 9 times is worth warning a player? I'll believe it when I hear it from the host. In the meantime, I suggest we keep a closer eye on bat. I was one of the ones who wrote off his intro post as nonsense, but his actions have gotten fishier lately, and that intro post keeps popping back into my mind like it's somehow relevant.
You analyzed the intro post he posted and if I recall, you said there was a small section missing? Could you paste or link the missing section? If I have time over my lunch break, I'd like to poke into that a bit myself.

There's been like 4 or 5 times Obi has asked BS to give his read as to why there's one between me and him, and BS still has refused to answer.
Why are you avoiding it so much, Bat?

We have zero information about the terms of the missions. Speculating something as specific as that and basing a scumread off of it is ridiculous. So ridiculous that scum would probably never make that argument. Originally I said it indicated tmi. But that is wrong. Scum would not go into lengths about a theory informed by their knowledge of their own missions. No scum is that dumb.
Of course I would. Any case that helps root out scum, directly or indirectly, helps us as a whole. And zero information about the terms of the missions doesn't cripple us as much as you might like us to believe. We can infer about certain objectives the host may have arranged and gauge reactions accordingly. I don't like how it seems like you're trying to throw us off that trail.
Also, I rather dislike the disparity between "So ridiculous that scum would probably never make that argument" and "No scum is that dumb." (emphasis mine) It seems like you started writing your post in one frame of mind, then switched to another frame of mind to make your point seem less shaky. If anything reeks of tmi in this post, it's that.

You have one chance from me. I was reading you town prior to today, but now I'm willing to put the batwagon on hold to pin you on this:
Post your updated reads, or explain in clear terms why batsnacks couldn't be scum. You may quote any posts you would like to make this argument, not just the one you were referencing initially.
