Pushing for information and reactions is good. Fast bandwagons are suspicious and there's almost always a ton of information to be had from them.

I'm curious Elvis, what do you have against Loaf playing the newbie card when you yourself are playing it now.

and while we´re on it, how do you feel about the points I brought up about loafery?
I'm new to this and like criticism.
(even though you might be mafia and mislead me. Which if you do and I detect it might give reasons to call you mafia, if you don't I have more good vibes. Win-Win)


Eh, let's walk through some of your points then:

1. He heavily concentrates just on defending himself and as mafia do try to do, avoids the questions asked to him by answering different themes from what was actually asked.


Day had just begun and he is the center of attention. Don't expect too many genuine reads from someone in this position. He was rather quick to call people town, but everyone has their own play style. Also, FF was rather quick to trust me, wouldn't you think? Nobody commented on that.

2. Another thing about loaf is that I don't like how he's playing like he doens't know some things that were in this thread for the weeks it to to get it started. Especially since he seems to be used to complicated setups, this must be "easy" for him? Talking about how "newbie" he himself is is a very convenient way of distracting people from you. Of course being a newbie should not be read as being scum, it just doesn't sound quite right how he mentions his complicated setups and then talks a whole lot of how they were and how this is different.
Just straight up without telling anyone a proper plan, want everyone to do something as radical as to claim on D1?


I've played with some veterans by now and some of them don't even know what roles are in the game by d3. Did he talk about he himself being a newbie? Please link to post.

3. Then another thing I really dislike is, that he talks so much about how he isn't mafia, because he "doesn't do certain things that he thinks are mafia". So if he knows that these things appear mafia and he was mafia, surely he wouldn't do any of these things. This might be my strongest point about him being mafia.


Actually I have rolled mafia before and his points are actually pretty relevant. As mafia you don't want to be in the spotlight. You want to appear townie. That's literally all you want to do. You don't give a flying fuck about solving the game or whatever. You hide and you rolehunt. Tricking others to start a miss lynch is just bonus.


Whatever, he should defend himself.
Minimal effort.

But atm i want to read abuse as scummy for trying so unnaturally hard and tunneling into lynching me.


You want to read abuse as scummy but you're not. Can you give some reads on other people? What do you think about the people who joined the push?

I feel loaf may be a silly push right now. Yeah he said the words confirmed town but other than that I think people are making the evidence fit their assumptions.

What are your thoughts on loaf? You called him towny, I called him towny but you still ask about him?

I didn't really want to play the "newbie card" myself here, that wasn't intended. I was just really really confused as what he meant by that (which he said now so that's good). I'm not quite sure about Superbia's alignment yet but the recent post seem more clear thus less scummy.

A thing I try on focussing at the moment:

Isn't information exactly and almost only what we want? We want people to explain themselves about as difficult of themes as possible so we can detect scum indicators. If we ask easy questions, we get easy answers.

For me right now, since it's still early, pushing and bandwagoning is not done in order to quickly push an idea of mine and lynch quickly, but mostly to get everyone talking on something we can guess their alignment from.

Yes, information is what we want and bandwagons can provide information. We all agree on that. Superbia was saying that he doesn't like this wagon on loaf (in that he disagrees with it), not that he doesn't like bandwagons in general (like you seemed to be confused about). I was just trying to point that out but I guess I added more confusion. Sorry D:

Firstly I don't really get what the difference is between calling myself town and confirmed town.

And for abuse to pick up on this and accuse me of being scum seems a little far fetched to me.

you are awfully staying in the background and letting others do the work while you just ask questions and try to care about twhats going on. I have a scum read on you right now.

Isn't that pretty much the only job that town has? To find things that are scummy and pursue them. Any reason you're asking others to do that for you?

You say no one else seems scummy to you, are you suggesting that it's probably loafery or the lurkers that are scum?

Why are you taking the easy route here?


Yea this made me tilt my head too.

Do you not agree then that people reading you as town just for misreading the OP could be scummy then? Like this is something that could be faked so i don't see how people can get a town read off that. Also in my opinion not trying to answer questions is scummy because it makes it seem like you have something to hide but I understand there been so much focus on you so there's a lot to answer.

I'm uneasy about superbia and ff saying they both basically disagree with the push on loaf but aren't pushing on anyone themselves. Who are you both scum reading? Who do you think should be a wagon for today?

Also my biggest town at the moment is abuse from his hard push on loaf as he was the first one to actively push his reads and doing this as mafia would majorly put the spotlight on him if loaf gets lynched and happens to flip town.

From my understanding confirmed town is when you have been checked by a cop and the mod has told them you are town. I can't speak for abuse but you calling yourself confirmed town in my eyes seemed like you were trying to ride off your dumb tell of not knowing the setup don't take yourself off the table for day one which is scummy because you shouldn't be trying to confirm yourself you should be trying to find mafia.

It's mostly a gut read plus I'm happy with people pushing on him so far, so I'll let you know when it matters.



I'm not nececarily amazed by Superbia this far, most of his post seem to try hard not to put to much suspicion on anyone.
Typically for a mafia, he posts a lot to seem active, without having much content. He so far avoids to do any FoS in any kind and even called loaf townie for no apparent reason. This doesn't help the investigation on loaf at all, if he doesn't give good reason/proof/ideas about it.


Then "its mostly a gut read plus I'm happy with people pushing him"

@Superbia would you like to elaborate how you think he's town and still like how he's getting pushed? Shouldn't we focus on searching mafia?


Then on loaf:

I really don't like his posts either, and for now he is my top 1 mafia ( Superbia is second ) and I'll ##FoS loaf.
The reason are the following:
1. He heavily concentrates just on defending himself and as mafia do try to do, avoids the questions asked to him by answering different themes from what was actually asked.

Wow, lots to see already.

@Superbia and @Fecalfeast - why so quick to jump on loafery being town?

@loafery - a game that elaborate and town just decided to mass role call? So sad Couple questions for you:

How often over the past year have you had games similar to that? Is it the kind of game you're used to or do you play more games with sane rules like this one?

Do you think mafia will be incapable of giving you positive vibes? Is town capable of giving you negative vibes? You've reached the "not scum" conclusion for Superbia and Fecalfeast pretty quickly, why is that?


Only the one. Most games were complicated having multiple power roles.

I'm sure they're capable. This too. Haven't done anything suspicious and ff read me as town with good reasoning instead of chasing after me.





Here he gives really weak reasoning for calling these people town. I can imagine it to be a clever strategy to try to make some people read you more town by telling them how "great they are" (they get called town for not being suspicious? How is that special townie behaviour? It just sounds like a null read for me.
Also people like to "be right" and get applauded for their decisions, so saying "ff read me as town with good reasoning instead of chasing after me" is supposed to make ff like loaf and maybe even defend him later on / vote for other people / chase after everyone except him / just work together in general. Especially for newbies it can be nice to get approved by someone.


2. Another thing about loaf is that I don't like how he's playing like he doens't know some things that were in this thread for the weeks it to to get it started. Especially since he seems to be used to complicated setups, this must be "easy" for him? Talking about how "newbie" he himself is is a very convenient way of distracting people from you.

3. Then another thing I really dislike is, that he talks so much about how he isn't mafia, because he "doesn't do certain things that he thinks are mafia". So if he knows that these things appear mafia and he was mafia, surely he wouldn't do any of these things. This might be my strongest point about him being mafia.

there are so many things wrong with this post I don't even know how to end this


I first thought there was 5/6 blue roles. I thought it was easy game. ff showed me it wasn't so. I admit my mistake and ff retracts his suspicions. If I were scum why would I even think of getting an easy win. I would havent mentioned anything at all.

You're coming off as very over reactive to my posts. It's all good but I have done nothing wrong.



If I were scum I would surely do all these things I believe are read to be scum. Suuuuuuure.

I don't care what you did at that point. What I care is what you did afterwards.
How the hell can you call yourself confirmed town for something like this. That is scummy beyond belief.
Also all the things I mentioned in this post you quoted. You have not addressed any of the issues I point out. Please do so and do so well. Otherwise, no way in hell am I removing my vote from you.

Right now it seems like you're using the excuse of a newbie to make everyone wear gloves while around you.
You're signaling that you are definitely town based on a incredibly stupid reason which is in no way alignment indicative, you imply that people should not chase you or suspect you, you also trust 2 people in the game already, after no real interactions at all and you're trying to buddy them. All this makes absolutely no sense from a town mindset. It comes from a mindset of scum who wants to stay below radar and does not want people to read their posts and judge their posts. The goal of such a mindset, is "I want to get in as many towncircles as possible and stay below the radar" not "I want to find and lynch scum"

I am not coming very overreactive. You slipped hard. And your defense so far was trash, and nonexisten.


Really? would I be so blunt about it? Don't you think mafia would rather stay low and not post anything of worth to the discussion than being so open and starting discussion in any way possible.

Your talking about very high tactics that would need a high skill cap to achieve for me to get into as many town circles.

And I was on the radar from the start so I failed in going below the radar and am the center of attention.

I think my reasons are legit in getting town reads from ff. He thought I gave valid reasons and realizing a scum mindset wouldn't act this way backed off. I think scum mindset there would pursue the matter no matter what because I did have dirt on my hands in proposing a mass claim and ff's actions to follow the post was very townesque to me. He had valid arguements against me to which I admit I was wrong and that was that.

But the vibes I'm getting from you are...you are really trying hard to lynch me no matter what. I see you have your reasons for which I have answered, but I don't understand what more I can do to prove my innocence. Keep questioning more if you will. Anything I missed?



"Now I'm in the center of attention" (... that I'm now desperately trying to get out of...)


loaf, I'm sorry for (maybe) uncovering some of your strategies, but being not mafia in totally obvious ways doesn't get you any closer to being townie.




1. how else am i supposed to defend?
2. I don't think external factors of whether I have previous experience with this kind of setup should be used in an arguement.
3. is it possible to point stuff out that a mafia might do without getting scrutiny.

for my defense of being noobish I frankly didn't read this part of the OP. My mistake. To be frank, it's my first time playing semi-open or any kind of open setup. It's always been where everyone knows which roles there are and its fixed.

I srsly don't want to bring in external factors to the game and my credibility and what not. If I have to then so be it...

But atm i want to read abuse as scummy for trying so unnaturally hard and tunneling into lynching me.


Do you not agree then that people reading you as town just for misreading the OP could be scummy then? Like this is something that could be faked so i don't see how people can get a town read off that. Also in my opinion not trying to answer questions is scummy because it makes it seem like you have something to hide but I understand there been so much focus on you so there's a lot to answer.

I'm uneasy about superbia and ff saying they both basically disagree with the push on loaf but aren't pushing on anyone themselves. Who are you both scum reading? Who do you think should be a wagon for today?

Also my biggest town at the moment is abuse from his hard push on loaf as he was the first one to actively push his reads and doing this as mafia would majorly put the spotlight on him if loaf gets lynched and happens to flip town.


How would players reading me as town be scummy?

Firstly I don't really get what the difference is between calling myself town and confirmed town.

And for abuse to pick up on this and accuse me of being scum seems a little far fetched to me.


From my understanding confirmed town is when you have been checked by a cop and the mod has told them you are town. I can't speak for abuse but you calling yourself confirmed town in my eyes seemed like you were trying to ride off your dumb tell of not knowing the setup don't take yourself off the table for day one which is scummy because you shouldn't be trying to confirm yourself you should be trying to find mafia.




So what your saying is if a mafia is pushing someone for lynch they would be read as town?


No im saying if we all sat here and just said we were town mafia would slowly kill us and they would win. So instead we try and find the mafia and lynch them. Also people pushing lynches gives information after the lynch happens as well so its also good in that way. Of course mafia can push lynches but its the reasons they push lynches for that you have to look at and where they flip there reads and what not.

Why do you think loaf is town?


It's mostly a gut read plus I'm happy with people pushing on him so far, so I'll let you know when it matters.


you are awfully staying in the background and letting others do the work while you just ask questions and try to care about twhats going on. I have a scum read on you right now.


Also i like this post as i was having much the same thoughts so i am reading you town for it.

People lumping super and I together is making me uneasy but I guess I made that bed myself.

I never meant to make it sound like loaf is town, though I did use the word town. What I should have said, in hindsight, is 'I no longer read loafery scum based on his explanation of his misunderstanding.'

I think this whole situation right now is a little scummy, not loafery himself. I am reading the people all jumping on loaf and wondering where the lurkers are, still. We need more than a few voices to find the scum or they will be content to hang back while we all argue over one person. That is to say, while the people pushing loaf may well be mafia, the people who aren't commenting at all are where I turn my suspicion for the moment.

Superbia, who are you reading scum? You've asked me a couple loaded questions this game but I don't see you explaining yourself in much detail. You say you are getting reads from this discussion which is great but are you really content to just sit back and wait for someone to slip?

Rad, anything else to add to the discussion of lurkers? I see you're thinking the same as I am regarding the low activity players but you've spent most of your posts discussing what other people are saying. Anything from your point of view to add? You mentioned superbia disliking the wagon, what does that tell when compared to the way he is playing? Anything?

All right. So zen is probably scum here.

Hi guys, sorry for being absent for a while. I'm afraid i'm going to be absent a few hours after this as well, but after that I can play for real. I thought i should do a quick analysis on loafrey, as he seems the most scummy to my eyes.


Why does zen think he had to do a quick analysis on loaf here? Why does he not exercise a little patience and make a better case later on? Why does he feel the need to get a push out on someone quickly (before others)? This feels like mafia trying to get some easy town points by getting some easy reads out. Town has no need to rush here. There is no EoD in sight. Mafia wants to appear townie, how do they do that? By getting out easy reads and easy pushes. This is one of them. Hence, zen is scum.

So there is a theme running through zen's post that I want to specifically look at: Zen did not read the thread well. This comes up in a later post during which he exclaims:
On October 08 2014 02:40 The_Zen_Man wrote:
Ok, so I read trough the thread better this time and it seems like most of my arguments, like someone already mentioned, had already been said by abuse.


Now, assuming this is true (more on this later), my point of "why did you need to feel the need to rush out a push" becomes more prominent. After all, abuse was already starting a push on loaf. Why would town feel a need to push on loaf here? It's already being done. Again, this is scum trying to get easy town points.

This leads me to a contradiction between zen's two posts. You see, zen said that he did not read the thread well before he posted his initial post, but in said post he says:
On October 07 2014 21:03 The_Zen_Man wrote:
But as stated before, saying that you are confirmed townie is very scummy behavior.

On October 07 2014 21:03 The_Zen_Man wrote:It might have been poorly worded or misinterpreted by others, but some of your behaviour after is also kind of strange.


This means that zen did read abuse's push on loaf. It was, after all, abuse who stated "saying that you are confirmed townie is very scummy behavior". Moreover, the behaviour "after" was interaction with abuse, which zen claimed he did not read (though he clearly did). He even quotes abuse's push in his push. What is zen doing!? This is such a blatant lie and super scummy. Again, zen is scum.


Now, during this entire push zen stays absolutely non-committed in his read. In the end zen only "Finger of Suspicion"s him, which honestly translates to "I will join this wagon if it takes off, lol" for me. If zen is not at all confident in his read, why is he making a push? Again, zen wants to fetch town points here but at the same time does not want to get any shit if he flips town. It feels like zen is making the push here so he doesn't get pinged out for inactivity, which mafia is terrified of.


The above reasons are why I am voting for zen and I'm expecting town to vote with me. Let's fucking hit scum d1.
