If I say something is odd and the guy just say "yes but let's not talk about it" is a deflection. It doesn't matter if night2 kills where not a surprise. The guy is dismissing an important fact.

He agrees with me, marv. If he thought like you, he would say "I disagree, night kills were perfectly done"

i'd say shorter day today would favour mafia, but not necessarily in general. shorter days when things are more settled help prevent impatience and paranoia from town

Add that to the lack of push from SL to LM.

My throat hurts.

Considering to just sheep DP, cause he was awesome.
Then again I laughed for a good while after reading what Artanis wrote, not sure if I'd use it for scumhunting at this point though.
GB, can you make something more complete about SL? I have a lot of stuff scattered around in my filter on him. Wanna know if you truly believe what you say cause I'm kinda concerned DP died.

Currently still got a question dominating my mind: If SL's plan was to greencheck LM from the start of D2 (cause he said his greencheck was supposed to confuse scum), why did he bother posting lists of scummers twice or thrice that were
obviously fake cause LM wasn't in it before he carried out the plan???

I really think his "masterplan" was just a result of getting very nervous about what he was doing, ie fakeclaiming cop. D2 it just looks like he invents one thing over the other.

Palmar, you were very clear in that Marv should townread you after your defense. What meta read do you believe he has on you and why did you say he should already have a townread on you to begin with?

Also, you stated before that Marv was 100% scum, then you said later that Marv should read you as town whether he's town or scum implying that you do in fact doubt your read on him. Why and where did that happen?

there's reasons from various people littered all over the thread.

You see, actually it is how it works. Pretty sure you've said it yourself - cases are just for herding the sheeple. The fact is your sustained play (purposeful choice of words) over the course of the game means the sheeple don't need something pretty to convince them.

Because the closest thing in the thread to an actual accusation, I'm just going to respond to Artanis' poem. Also, he's one of the people I want most to actually talk to, because he's basically stayed away from me throughout the game (it feels like, at least, I've interacted with vivax, gb, marv, sl etc, but him I've sorta never talked to).

Your case on GB was most curious


Don't know what you mean by curious. It's super townie if you know how brains work. If I am mafia, I already know GB's alignment, so why would I bother with the whole "start out piling some scum points on him, pretend to read more, then completely flip my conclusion and call him town".

Like I'm not good enough at scum to do that. Now obviously you can argue this, but I'd think that because I have perfect information as mafia, I wouldn't have bothered with the whole changing my mind in the middle of the post/filter read. I think I'd rather have tried to strengthen whichever conclusion I wanted to reach by mostly citing examples pointing in that one direction.

Stopping mid-filter when I feel confident he's town after questioning some of his early stuff, is something not many mafia would do.

And your case against Damdred dubious


What do you think of Damdred?

Do you disagree that he's played this game very much in the background? He's not taken any kind of a leadership role in town and even now, with just a handful of players remaining, almost nothing he has written really stands out.

Sure, voting superbia on day 2 builds the case for him being town somewhat (also, remember, I didn't know superbia was mafia when I wrote my stuff on Damdred, as he hadn't flipped). But it all depends on whether or not we think superbia actually had a real chance to die that day. Also, I cba checking, but was geript firmly in the lead? or was Vivax right there? We may have to check that.

You helped lynch Geript, a member of our town


So what? Being wrong on my first target happens all the time. Weren't you on his wagon too? I made a case, I believed in it, geript's non-response made me want to go through with it.

Do you doubt that I believed geript was mafia? Or at least he had a good chance of being one?

Palmar confirmed town for making me laugh. I also kinda agree that we haven't really had a Geript moment of insight yet, which reminds me a bit of LXI where he just waddled through.

I would like to hear Geript's dumb reasons for considering Dr.Helvetica town.


100% defense. Confirmed town.

1st of all, read my filter. There's a ton of reads in there. And I got geript lynched.

I mean, he turned out to be town, but at least I did something. What have you done?

Marv is the big x factor this game.

At 2-3 occasions I've basically jumped up "aha, marv must be mafia", but then he keeps being reasonable and I can't convince myself he's 100% mafia. Like he does some weird things, but comes back to sound reasonable again. He reacted almost exactly the way I did to the ritoky claim (ie: we get the counterclaim, we lynch whoever is less believable). The last time I started thinking he might be town was when he posted this:

Btw, as I'm probably going to be mostly unavailable today (it's new year's eve... why did we even start?). I'll just throw out very much not curated thoughts I had while reading up to like page... 16?

I'll catch up with the rest later.

geript is sort of scummy in some respects. I have no idea why 20 minutes into the game he started wishing for random people to be there to talk to him. Also, everything he says is sort of... too clean? not dumb enough? I don't know how to describe it and it's just a feeling based on memory, I haven't gone back and re-read, so I'd need to confirm.

Eden came off strong and he said something I thought was really dumb.

DrH is probably town, and he had a post that made me feel good about that read.

Damdred is probably town too. He too has a post I can't remember that made me think "oh that looks like a townie".

Koshi overreacting on this page (21) to DrH's dismissal of koshi's defense was kinda mafia. Idk though.

I should probably just sheep marv and lynch him if he's wrong. That's always a fine strategy.

Remember, these reads I'm just throwing out literally from memory of having read like 4-6 pages this morning. Don't pretend these are some concrete observations.


Then he tunnels geript for a bit and does nothing I really like.

This post seems more likely to come from scum at the start of the game also, just because scum are more likely to feel demotivated early in my experience, conversely a townie who believes he has caught scum is much less likely to feel demotivated.

You have to read in context.

I wanted to lynch geript. I got a wagon going on geript, when I went to sleep geript was the leading candidate for a lynch. However when I woke up town had voteswitched on to batsnacks (and not Vivax as I had suggested) and killed him. This led me to being extremely frustrated as I didn't even know people were considering batsnacks as a lynch target and I had read batsnacks as town.


Cool, so why were your first large posts on day one such wishy-washy inconclusive garbage when you are known for having strong day ones and I personally think you are an excellent player?

What benefit did you wish to gain by creating that list post? why did you call DrH probably town?




They're not inconclusive garbage. In fact, me hedging half my calls with wording like "very slight leaning town read" is probably the biggest tell that I am town this game.

However I also wouldn't expect just about anyone to understand that.

It's basically me trying not to be wrong, or if I am wrong have something to point to "hey look, I told you I just called him town for this small thing, not my fault he didn't end up being town". If I was mafia I'd be far more confident in my reads, or so I think, at least.

And the list post was basically me trying to do useful stuff. I decided to punch in what I was thinking at that point in the game.

and I already explained why I called DrH town.

this post is reasonable. I can't remember who it was but there was a game recently where someone made this long, terrible case on me, quoting a bunch of posts where i'm umming and ahhing.


Because it's 100% true, it's a very reasonable post by me, and marv takes it as such. The only sort-of-weird thing is that DP was much quicker to pick up on how amazing that post was than marv, which might mean marv was parroting him, might mean MARV NOT READ SO GOOD TAKE TIME, or maybe he just wasn't around.

But yeah, I see no scenario, even if I'm cop checked green that I'm leading a lynch on marv today. I think, by far, the best target is Damdred, and I have to read Vivax and LM. I keep forgetting LM actually exists, which sometimes means people are mafia.

You think more of my scumplay than I do.

Maybe I am? I do admit I like to go for the contradictory play when I'm mafia (ie: shoot the people who call me town and then go "I'D BE INSANE TO SHOOT MY ONLY SUPPORTER!!!!!")

Which reminds me, I'd be crazy to shoot DP who actually had brains enough to call me town (I think he did).
