Holyflare's Wandering civilian claim is interesting. There is no mafia tracker in this game, so there's no point faking the claim as town role. Which means he's either Wandering civilian, or mafia role. Wouldn't be a bad cop check, hoping that we do have a cop and mafia doesn't have a framer. | ||

His contradiction thing, and he isn't the slightest bit phased by so many votes being on him. Two things I can't see from mafia. | ||

Fine, but what sets him from being mafia instead of a nullread? | ||

I find Lord Tolkien scummy because his entry into the game is joking about lynching himself and that's all he's done so far. I've seen mafia do this so often where they just joke about being mafia, and then tune out the rest of the day. Wouldn't be surprised if that's the case here. | ||

The lack of discussion and lack of depth of my case can be explained by lack of substance in Lord Tolkein's filter. The lack of substance in Lord Tolkein's filter can be explained by how nobody is voting or pressuring him. I think the solution might be to start voting and pressuring him. | ||

He contributes very little and all his posts ask some question or open some line of thought without any followup at all. Compare it to his previous game as town, where he goes total townmode from start to finish: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/464494-newbie-lviii-disney-princess-mafia?user=Superbia We're seeing a very different Superbia this game | ||

I specifically explained I had no good reason for that other than thinking that the one wagon that takes of in Majority Lynch when we don't have a solid case is unlikely to hit mafia. I haven't even read kush. If Palmer was town, he has to try to justify a lynch on kush or at least find another wagon. What he actually did can only come from mafia. He did a soft defense on the only person who could be lynched instead of him. The only purpose of this kind of play is to give off the impression that he's merciful and thinking about the game, and then gain some credit for being correct that kush was town. | ||

I feel Koshi has given some of the best reads so far. Just because his posts just say stuff like "+1 scumpoint" doesn't mean there isn't a case behind it. A lot of posts that Koshi highlighted are of high interest, and he's showing a lot of attention to detail. | ||

I mean Palmar is like, literally TRYING to get lynched - would YOU want that on your team? I doubt that rayn and palmer are mafia together. The way rayn was pushing on palmer, he was really emotional about it. He wouldn't be so emotional to get a teammate lynched instead of a town. We know that it was a genuine emotion rather than a fake play because if it was fake, he would have stopped at the mislynch. Instead, rayn trampled all over modkill territory even after the lynch. Would rayn get this pissed off that town is giving Palmer another day? | ||

A difference here is that Holyflare did claim a role and hasn't been counterclaimed. I would totally believe that he could hide behind the safety of a roleclaim as mafia, but being busy irl would also explain it. It'll be very useful if someone else who is a wandering civilian to come out. | ||

I only have a couple minutes here and there to check the thread. Palmer was a better lynch than kush, but I didn't have time to write out a case. Best I could do was show a little support and maybe town would have reconsidered. Read the case I posted later on about Palmer. | ||

The last game I played where rayn was scum, when town was about to lynch a townie, rayn had disagreements with other people and such, but the entire time he was being smart and as cool as a cucumber. This game he was raging at other people for not agreeing with him. Rayn being mafia would not be so angry that other people were misreading the situation and getting a town lynched. It can only mean that he's either faking it for towncred, or actually frustrated. If it was the former, then rayn would have stopped once kush was mislynched. Instead, after the lynch he continued to mouth off and almost got himself modkilled. He really should have been modkilled there. There's absolutely no strategic value in getting yourself modkilled in this situation. This literally makes zero sense coming from scum. | ||

I had a read on his day 1 play, but it's excusable since he recently came back from vacation. However his play today has still not picked up yet. In his last game when he was VT, he was very aggressive and attentive. This game he's the exact opposite. He did two things today - give a read on me, and ask geript a few questions. The read on me ended up with oops I didn't read, and there was no follow-up or conclusion to his push on geript at all. This guy is not trying to find scum at all. Should totally lynch. | ||

Towny people are targetted by mafia when they are correct on their reads. They have a lot of influence, so work in the mafia's favor when they are onto innocent townies, but are a threat to mafia when they have reads on actual mafia. Looking at who they were scumreading: Koshi - BloodyC0bbler, Lord Tolkien, Yamato, ShiaoPi, Superbia, Chairman Ray, Palmar, geript VE - batsnacks, Holyflare, Fecalfield, geript, Superbia I bet that at least one from each list is mafia. We should focus a little more attention on these people (except Chairman Ray, who's town) | ||

When people give a meta read that this game rayn's acting like his scum meta, that doesn't exactly help me because they can be referring to anything. That's why I brought up this one specific example from one specific game. It doesn't fit his scum meta in that one case and that's worth exploring. Robik posted a nice counterexample game, which I'm grateful of and I'll look more into later. | ||

So far Palmar has claimed mafia outright IMO 2 fucking times. Hes not being killed. (im still on page 96ish and palmar filtering) None of this has changed, yet BC has completely abandoned Palmer on day 2. There's still the possibility that BC ignored Palmer because he didn't want to repeat his previous reads, but to not push your scumread is weird, I dunno. | ||
Chairman Ray
United States11903 Posts
All of Superbia's other reads were quite general and I get the impression that he's only skimming over people. His read on BC was quite specific. So either he's town and he spends most of his time investigating one person, and still decides to post a tidbit on other people, or he's mafia bussing. It's far easier for a mafia to catch a teammate's blunder than a town to. I think the latter is more likely since Superbia seems a little too sure on BC. Anyways, I don't know why I'm blabbing on under the assumption that BC will flip scum, so I'll be quiet now. But yeah, I would also lynch BC tomorrow. | ||

1. Don't lynch me, I'm town 2. Push a wagon onto ShiaoPi. The case batsnacks posted on him is pretty solid. I can see little reason why ShiaoPi would be so demotivated due to more recent happenings in the game, when he put in very little effort from the very start. Doesn't make sense. Also, instead of going to do something else like a demotivated person should, he stuck around and kept saying that he's demotivated and won't help whenever someone brought it up. That also doesn't make sense. He would be my #1 lynch today 3. I'm okay with the hopeless lynch because he hasn't contributed at all after day 1. Yes, I'm being a hypocrite here. 4. Ideally I would like a flexible wagon between ShiaoPi and Hopeless. If one of them comes on last minute and turns out he's the JK or something, it might be better to lynch the other. Don't make me the backup wagon because I'm town. | ||
