For anyone who has played games with rayn, could you please refer me to his worst town game (worst in the sense that his reads were all wrong)? This is paramount.

You are really basing a read on someone ONLY because they are "wrong"?
Now this is why i am voting for you. Being wrong is not scummy.
IT'S FUCKING DAY 2!!! I cannot possibly have been wrong more than once in this game.

That's not what I said, stop putting words in my mouth. Being wrong isn't scummy. But you are rayn (someone who I think is a reasonably strong town player), and in this game you have made a big case against gobble (which ended up wrong) and a big case against sylencia (also ended up wrong), and have called me scum (so I know you are wrong there), yet you still have the gall to call everyone else terrible and / or scum. Not once does it look like anywhere in your filter you considering that you've been very very wrong on your two strongest reads. Like you aren't surprised that they are town.

In fact you have set yourself up in a position where you could feasibly call anyone scum and you have been. You've been flinging out accusations and suspicions everywhere. It looks opportunistic, it looks like it could be scum.

Now you could be very well town having an off game. So I'm asking if we can get some meaningful discussion on people done rather than jumping around. Who is most likely to be scum and why, or conversely who is most likely to be town and why? I've taken some strong stances, and I'd like to know where you are, and for you to take strong stances that don't shift so much.

It may be indeed something that you (rayn specific) do not do. It is something I do, so perhaps I mistakenly applied that heuristic too widely.

I'm reviewing geript right now, so just hold on for a few minutes. Could you clarify the "that's what you said" part? I'm thinking you are referring to my use of the "what has he done that was memorable" but that was I believe in reference to Damdred.

Still reasonably suspicious of rayn.

His two strong scum reads in gobble and Sylencia have ended up in them claiming. Like look at how he treats them before the claim. He points out how this and that and everything is super suspicious and makes them scum. But then they aren't scum. His read on me is wrong, so rayn has been 0 for 3 this game.

I am referring to this. You literally said i have been wrong and that's why you think i am scum, no? And i am scum because i let go of my scumreads when it's only reasonable to let go off them.
How else i am supposed to read this post?

Like tldr'd:
- i am scum because i have been wrong (which is not scummy)
- i am scum because i let go off my scumreads when i realize i was wrong (which is a towntell)

I think I underestimated your mental fortitude. Like I very much agree that this town is lacking direction and that there isn't productive discussion going on, and it's really off-putting since like way too many people aren't caring and for me, whether it's because I haven't played mafia in a while or maybe it's the no flips, but the mental stress is adding up. You were suspicious to me for essentially having an abnormally strong mental fortitude, since I think that only scum could be mentally intact in this town atmosphere.

Still reading context of geript / syl claim etc.

I understand where you are coming from, and I agree to an extent. I guess it falls under reading for "tone" for me. I might not feel good about the read but I might feel good about that person.

Still reading. I do think Sylencia is telling the truth. Looking into geript's reactions.

Oh and so you have something to consider while waiting, for the Oats question, it's balanced by "what has LoneMeow done this game"? While reading context I came across this post

While I'd agree he's not playing as he usually does, I don't see that being alignment indicative.

I don't have a solid read on him but I do like this post for him being town:

the problem with this game is the following.
there were four people who were considered (usually) town leaders. me koshi geript and yamato.
geript people do not trust on anyways, no matter what he says.
i was not around for the most of the time.
koshi didn't do shit - i think he could have even be scum based purely on that.
yamato didn't get anything done.

That leaves Koshi and yamato. I think there is one mafia between them because i am conflicted about the fact that the d1 was shit. yes it really was shit. you guys couldnt even get a fucking lynch done without me and thats terrible. however yamato looks town so id put my bets on koshi being mafia.


In fact the point about Koshi is a very good one and I think Koshi was a decent lynch.

So I'll say leaning town. A little.

Also in 36h starts my vacation and then i'll play.

He'd never say this as scum - is what I'd want to believe.

LoneMeow why did you make this post?


Because you were one of the focal points for D1. I thought it would be useful if I commented you since you were the leading wagon.

But i am not the leading wagon on D2. You should have said what you have on D1 when it was relevant. You didn't even comment on me in any meaningful way on D1 when it actually WAS relevant, and now when it isn't you do. And i do wanna know why you think it's relevant now?

Also what's your take on Sloosh and Sylencia?


You're right that I should've said it on D1, unfortunately that was not possible. Make whatever you want of that.

My take on slOosh has not changed, he's still my top scum read.

Sylencia is quite scummy, especially for calling slOosh scum but not doing anything about it. All the while pushing geript who doesn't seem likely to get lynched right now.

I'm still his top scum read, meaning he has read me scum for quite some time, but he himself has done little to get me lynched. Then he accuses Sylencia for failing to do anything. Hypocrisy.

Essentially I find LoneMeow more problematic than Oats.

From what I recall from Oats' filter (without reading) is that he really really wanted Koshi dead, and really really wants LM dead, and has done a couple of sidesteps here and there questioning why people don't play "his style" of mafia, which comes off to me as pretty town. And fwiw, Robik had Oats as strong town but I don't know how much stock you put into that.

I've read the interaction with the Syl claim and what I've concluded is thus:
Both geript and ritoky want to lynch Syl through the claim. Now there's a towny concern here and a scummy motive. The towny concern is that Syl is mafia, he gets the real acolyte to claim. Mafia syl gets lynched, but then mafia hit acolyte and learn his role with necromancer. I think the confusion here is how the setup works, in that is the inquisitor role revealed to necromancer or not.

This is what I'm feeling ritoky's desire to lynch Syl comes from. A townie concern that it is not a simple 1 for 1, but more like a 3 for 2 or something like that.

Geript on the other hand wants to lynch through the claim because he finds it hard to believe that anyone would claim period. Ehh I'm gonna have to check his treatment of gobble real quick.

Huh. Ok. Yea I think a lot of why this game is so whack is because it's such a new concept to a lot of us so our approach may not be the best.

So as for geript, here's his treatment of gobble's matryr claim D1

I really hope there's a counterclaim. Not a good time to claim. Not a good reason to claim.

Nope. Now you claim. There's only a handful of roles that could get you into considering claiming prelynch. Claim or die. It's that simple.

On September 09 2014 18:34 geript wrote:
Or you're not Sylencia. Point is. There's no role he could have that he'd consider claiming period. Like there's no point.

As inquisitor he'd try to stay alive much more before wanting to claim.
Acolyte isn't a role you ever claim.
As Judge he'd do his best to get a no lynch.
As Exorcist he'd know that there's not a point to claim.
Oracle doesn't claim without information of 2 and even then it'd be a bad idea in this situation.
Grander doesn't need to claim.
Pope has no point claiming now.
Crusader... Why claim here or ever?
Wraith has no reason to ever claim.

So again what's his reason as town to claim?

So a question is how different are the two claims? I could see matryr being a confirming level above in that he will die the next night guaranteeing the 1 for 1 trade without needing a lynch whereas the acolyte has a trade where ....

Yea I don't see how we lynch into Syl if un cced ... it is just a 1 for 1 right?

Like the only concern I could see someone having is the one I think ritoky has, (unless he is acolyte and trying to not claim outright but I doubt it based off Syl's behaviour), where it isn't a clean cut 1 for 1. Like Robik and Oats immediately understood. Yea I think I'm agreeing with you that there is no reason to try to continue to lynch Syl.

Yea I dunno. geript says the line "what's his reason as town to claim?" which throws me off since we just saw goobley claim D1. Like, in one sense yes claiming to defend yourself isn't the best strategy, but it's lacking that geript doesn't consider that town can still do "not best strategies". Added is your point of "it's all moot Syl claimed we don't have a cc we shouldn't lynch him". I still don't get the math 2-1 but it could just be because I'm super tired and having trouble typing / thinkign now.

Uhh ... shoot.

ok I need to do this after sleep.

You can't possibly do shit unless you know how many mafia is left unless you are the Oracle in which case you're being extremely dumb because you are the most important role in the game.

Do not talk about the setup and connections until either the oracle or the cop claims.


This is the approach im am taking to solve the game.
I did not talk about any connections yet, like I said, I will not reveal them until they actually happened. I am just stating what happened and what are the implications.

Feels quite townie (regardless of if it's misguided or not) cause it's like, he plays how he thinks game is best played.

Also he was feuding with geript D1 so he is opposite sclaing with geript.

sheesh typing skills declineing.

One last thing, not ttoo sure if I'm confirmation bias at this point.

Geript didn't care about lynch D1 he was ok with no lynch saying judge lynch. I think wagons were you (rayn) and damdred and he was pushing harurh, and syl looked bad so it's ok to let judge lynch into them. But d2 he said judge not to be trusted when koshi got hit so maybe koshi was scum? wow maybe that was bad tin foil hat but it is my mind ...

ok i stp posting now i'll pick up morning when sober

Order matters from my perspective because I need to figure out if you are town or scum in the way you are trying to deflect the lynch. Could you tell me your strongest scum read sans Syl regardless of viability of lynch? Or could you explain to me why Syl is scum and why we should all be lynching him.

Order doesn't matter. It's silly to think that at this point. It's essentially a mylo situation here because of soup. Perhaps you should realize that my current view is Oats/Harurh/Damdred. If you think I'm mafia, find a single game where as mafia I have been able to make 10 pages by after 72 hours. You won't find a single one. I can't keep up that activity as mafia. I can do it for 24 or so but past that I've never done it.

Order in the sense of which one of them are you most confident of your scum read on. I mean who knows scum's soup skill level and more so if it is those three since it seems they are all playing this setup for first time. I'll be checking your filter in meantime. Do you still think Syl is mafia?

Also, timewise this game is like D3, you hit 10 pages after a week of play. I'll concede that several of your town games have many many posts, but your scum games also had decent sized filter (9 pages for the Game, ended D5, 7 For PTP Demon's Run lynched D3). So it's not as clear cut as that.

Basically Robik and rayn (whom I recently trust) both had issues with you so I need discussions to trust you now.
