Yes Artanis and I already said why I don't like your arguments on geript. They are more meta-heavy and while you might see them as given ,everyone else who doesnt have experience with geripts meta won't simply accept them.

Something more concrete like the points on Chyz would be appreciated, provided you really want to convince me on geript. At least the first half of his filter didn't scream mafia to me so if you had to bring up non-meta-stuff, what would it be?

When you look through Geript's filter, do you see someone that's trying to solve the game? I see someone asking filler questions, stating the obvious with original thoughts few and far between. Now if you consider how long his filter is and how experienced and, according to many myself included pretty decent at the game, it's hard to reconcile that with a town alignment. It just feels like he's trying to stay alive.

I dunno how my original argument was meta anyway. All it presumes is that Geript isn't a bad player.

I made that point ages before GB did and GB knows very well that we aren't lynching marv right now.

GB expanded on it with that Mafia should've jumped on it though. Looking back a few more people accused him than I remembered so it's not as good, but that was new.

Anyway, focus on lynch candidates please~

First off, I'm really surprised that more people don't want to lynch Robik. New Years has fucked with us all I imagine in addition to the surprise start, but Town!Robik tends to play quite differently. He's aggressive; he bounces all over the place. He makes huge sweeping townreads that are the craziest shit I've ever seen. He's really passive. Nothing "turns his wheel" so to speak. Usually he'd be on something like a dog in heat by now. That's my first read.

This is out of place in where I am int he thread. But I'm pretty sure that this is kinda exactly why I've been called scum this game. At least in part. Pretty odd that Eden defines that as my scumplay. The other thing about Eden that's been bugging me is that specific weird heuristics get dropped from the scene for no reason. Usually when town goes ham, they go ham. But there's a specific level of crazy but not too crazy that makes me think that Eden is probably a pretty good lynch as well.

Palmar, do you still believe Geript to be the best lynch today?

Yes.

One thing that particularly stands out to me is that I'm sort of in the driver's seat on this lynch, and geript hasn't even mentioned or addressed me at all. Like all he has to do is change my mind, but for some reason he's shying away from any interaction with me.

Well, you haven't been around until recently so that's a reasonable consideration. It's weird that he hasn't really defended the main points against him or really push anyone. Just calls Lazer an "ok lynch", calls Eden a "pretty good lynch", decides Marv is scum again yet he seems to have no interest in actively not getting lynched. It's really weird because no matter his alignment he shouldn't want to get lynched.

I don't want to get lynched but I'm busy. Plus, I don't think people are going to listen to what I have to say whatsoever unless I get lynched. Granted most people will likely forget it and some people will likely just dismiss it. But just promise me to look back at my list and think about it. I'll try to be back later to explain things in more detail. But I still haven't had a shower or anything to eat or drink yet today and I have a shitton of stuff to do and I really want to play league.


That's pretty much it. I'm still going to look into the filters of Chyz and Vivax to see if they're better lynches and make up my mind.

Not having the drive to post and reread 80 times like I normally do isn't playing poorly. I'm sheeping a good wagon. I've been the focus of attention for most of 2 days now at least part of which is due to the fact that vets "caught" me early and the fact that the day has stagnated due to NYE. Like, I don't feel like putting in 48 hours of work in this type of situation. Especially when a cop is probably going to red check me tomorrow. That's a really bad situation for town. You gotta look at it from my side too. Sometimes it's best to bite the bullet to let town move the fuck on.

If you think sacrificing yourself is a better play than proving you're town through good play then I don't think anything I say will help. What I expected from you was some form of direction, but I find it extremely lacking in your posts. To me, the most damning point is having 4 suspects within one hour, and asking none any questions or pressing them for anything (other than calling Marv 100% scum)

If you post good gifs I might still lynch someone else though.

Thats not an excuse. What difference is there between one vote on Vivax and 0 on batsnacks? There are still 3 hours until deadline and I might push for a batsnacks lynch.

Two votes on Vivax. If you make a good case I'll look into it but I'm already doing more reading than I was planning at 3am.

TheChyz seems very impulsive, going for gut feelings and ill-thought out ideas for the most part, then suddenly comes back in with a very new and much more level headed attitude which shifts after only a few posts into anger. Then starts thinking pretty rationally again about half an hour later. He then gets angry at Lazer for claiming to tunnel on Chyz, which I find odd. Why would it make you mad that someone felt he pushed too hard on you, even if he didn't? It seems very opportunistic.

In Cultured, Chyz seems a lot more upbeat, though he's also defensive about some flaws he's made in the start. The tone is very different even though people also want to hang him. + Show Spoiler +

As such wave is the one that keeps bringing up to lynch by the list the most imo and as such that is mostly why I think he is scum. That is who I would vote for, but since I'm going to work atm and won't be back till around deadline (my 15 is roughly near break) I'll keep my vote on no lynch (don't wanna get modkilled to help town since thats cheating).

I'm just gonna leave saying this last word. Nothing on concrete has really been put on me. The only thing that people keep rehashing is just the non vote on suki day 1. That argument alone is so weak but it seems the only thing you guys are doing is thinking each of you is confirmed town so the only one with a small question mark is going to get lynched. "Follow the list", pretty good plan scum, keeps you alive all game long.

What seems more likely, a noobie's second game (being town last game) having nothing scummy except for some overblown vote argument thats super wishy-wash (similar to my town game) or a veteran scum being able to hide under voting in a list?

Anyways, gg guys. Was fun (and HELLA stressful )


That said, there's a difference between getting lynched on D1 when you're being tunneled throughout the whole day and getting lynched and during LYLO after a long, but seemingly fair battle. I still think there's a discrepancy, and a few points that you've made resonated with me, but I'm not as sure about it as you are.

Not having the drive to post and reread 80 times like I normally do isn't playing poorly. I'm sheeping a good wagon. I've been the focus of attention for most of 2 days now at least part of which is due to the fact that vets "caught" me early and the fact that the day has stagnated due to NYE. Like, I don't feel like putting in 48 hours of work in this type of situation. Especially when a cop is probably going to red check me tomorrow. That's a really bad situation for town. You gotta look at it from my side too. Sometimes it's best to bite the bullet to let town move the fuck on.

If you think sacrificing yourself is a better play than proving you're town through good play then I don't think anything I say will help. What I expected from you was some form of direction, but I find it extremely lacking in your posts. To me, the most damning point is having 4 suspects within one hour, and asking none any questions or pressing them for anything (other than calling Marv 100% scum)

If you post good gifs I might still lynch someone else though.

I take no responsibility if this does or does not contradict something I said previously. Just making this list makes me think I should look at sl though, he could be mafia. Normally I remember him when I read stuff.

I don't like this list at all Marv. Back to scumpile.

4 different scumreads within the timeframe of an hour. Doesn't really follow up on anything but Marv, of which he just nitpicks the list and talks about fear lynching.

Palmar, do you still believe Geript to be the best lynch today?

Yes.

One thing that particularly stands out to me is that I'm sort of in the driver's seat on this lynch, and geript hasn't even mentioned or addressed me at all. Like all he has to do is change my mind, but for some reason he's shying away from any interaction with me.

Well, you haven't been around until recently so that's a reasonable consideration. It's weird that he hasn't really defended the main points against him or really push anyone. Just calls Lazer an "ok lynch", calls Eden a "pretty good lynch", decides Marv is scum again yet he seems to have no interest in actively not getting lynched. It's really weird because no matter his alignment he shouldn't want to get lynched.

I don't want to get lynched but I'm busy. Plus, I don't think people are going to listen to what I have to say whatsoever unless I get lynched. Granted most people will likely forget it and some people will likely just dismiss it. But just promise me to look back at my list and think about it. I'll try to be back later to explain things in more detail. But I still haven't had a shower or anything to eat or drink yet today and I have a shitton of stuff to do and I really want to play league.


That's pretty much it. I'm still going to look into the filters of Chyz and Vivax to see if they're better lynches and make up my mind.

Also have a look at batsnacks.

But no one's even voted batsnacks yet, I'll look into him D2.

I take it you're referring to your enfant terrible? Will do.

Thats not an excuse. What difference is there between one vote on Vivax and 0 on batsnacks? There are still 3 hours until deadline and I might push for a batsnacks lynch.

Two votes on Vivax. If you make a good case I'll look into it but I'm already doing more reading than I was planning at 3am.

Artanis, there's really not any more direction that I could post than I've already posted. You guys have been all like "OMG his stuff is so shit." People say that shit all the time when I'm town. I also tend to find the right answer in ways that other people don't. I look at games entirely differently than most here. All of what's happening is that my posts are being buried in my filter by me trying to explain this shit to you guys. You don't see Marv around actually caring who gets lynched or why. Why is he so focused on a town? Why has his game been exceptionally different from his town play? Why doesn't he want to lynch Robik? Why is Robik so nothing like the usual townplay I've seen? Why is GB changing his mind in 5 minutes when nothing of note in the thread has changed? Why is Vivax someone that most people are "considering" but few people have any actual drive to consider the situation?

I don't feel like being tunneled for 3 more days which if I don't get lynched is my expected lifespan in this game. I've told you who I think is off and why. You might not understand it. But I don't think I can explain it better. Marv isn't town!Marv. Vivax has a decent shot of flipping scum. GB, idk. I've always had a hard time reading him and I don't think he's a great player. Chyz is town. DrH is maybe town but if he is then he's a large detriment to the game. Palmer is town. Damdred is town. Koshi is almost assuredly town (not because he doesn't want to kill me). You're town.
I think sicklucker is probably town his play looks more similar to his townplay to me and when I reread him again I think he's getting a bad rap because people aren't looking at the towny hints. Kelsier is a tough read. But as scum he tends to be active and do things even when the thread's not moving or changing direction. He's alot like me in that he likes to think ahead a bit I think. I don't really see that in his filter. So he's probably town. JAT is town. Just trust me on this <3.

why you no comment on his jat read that is basically my read?

Out of everything he said that's what you want me to comment on? Really?
A strong scumread shares a strong townread with a null slightly scum leaning player. How interesting.

I will respond to him once he posts a gif that adequately entertains me.

I take no responsibility if this does or does not contradict something I said previously. Just making this list makes me think I should look at sl though, he could be mafia. Normally I remember him when I read stuff.

I don't like this list at all Marv. Back to scumpile.

4 different scumreads within the timeframe of an hour. Doesn't really follow up on anything but Marv, of which he just nitpicks the list and talks about fear lynching.

Palmar, do you still believe Geript to be the best lynch today?

Yes.

One thing that particularly stands out to me is that I'm sort of in the driver's seat on this lynch, and geript hasn't even mentioned or addressed me at all. Like all he has to do is change my mind, but for some reason he's shying away from any interaction with me.

Well, you haven't been around until recently so that's a reasonable consideration. It's weird that he hasn't really defended the main points against him or really push anyone. Just calls Lazer an "ok lynch", calls Eden a "pretty good lynch", decides Marv is scum again yet he seems to have no interest in actively not getting lynched. It's really weird because no matter his alignment he shouldn't want to get lynched.

I don't want to get lynched but I'm busy. Plus, I don't think people are going to listen to what I have to say whatsoever unless I get lynched. Granted most people will likely forget it and some people will likely just dismiss it. But just promise me to look back at my list and think about it. I'll try to be back later to explain things in more detail. But I still haven't had a shower or anything to eat or drink yet today and I have a shitton of stuff to do and I really want to play league.


That's pretty much it. I'm still going to look into the filters of Chyz and Vivax to see if they're better lynches and make up my mind.

Also have a look at batsnacks.

But no one's even voted batsnacks yet, I'll look into him D2.

I take it you're referring to your enfant terrible? Will do.

Thats not an excuse. What difference is there between one vote on Vivax and 0 on batsnacks? There are still 3 hours until deadline and I might push for a batsnacks lynch.

Two votes on Vivax. If you make a good case I'll look into it but I'm already doing more reading than I was planning at 3am.

Artanis, there's really not any more direction that I could post than I've already posted. You guys have been all like "OMG his stuff is so shit." People say that shit all the time when I'm town. I also tend to find the right answer in ways that other people don't. I look at games entirely differently than most here. All of what's happening is that my posts are being buried in my filter by me trying to explain this shit to you guys. You don't see Marv around actually caring who gets lynched or why. Why is he so focused on a town? Why has his game been exceptionally different from his town play? Why doesn't he want to lynch Robik? Why is Robik so nothing like the usual townplay I've seen? Why is GB changing his mind in 5 minutes when nothing of note in the thread has changed? Why is Vivax someone that most people are "considering" but few people have any actual drive to consider the situation?

I don't feel like being tunneled for 3 more days which if I don't get lynched is my expected lifespan in this game. I've told you who I think is off and why. You might not understand it. But I don't think I can explain it better. Marv isn't town!Marv. Vivax has a decent shot of flipping scum. GB, idk. I've always had a hard time reading him and I don't think he's a great player. Chyz is town. DrH is maybe town but if he is then he's a large detriment to the game. Palmer is town. Damdred is town. Koshi is almost assuredly town (not because he doesn't want to kill me). You're town.
I think sicklucker is probably town his play looks more similar to his townplay to me and when I reread him again I think he's getting a bad rap because people aren't looking at the towny hints. Kelsier is a tough read. But as scum he tends to be active and do things even when the thread's not moving or changing direction. He's alot like me in that he likes to think ahead a bit I think. I don't really see that in his filter. So he's probably town. JAT is town. Just trust me on this <3.

You didn't post a gif


why you no comment on his jat read that is basically my read?

Out of everything he said that's what you want me to comment on? Really?
A strong scumread shares a strong townread with a null slightly scum leaning player. How interesting.

I will respond to him once he posts a gif that adequately entertains me.


yes because out of my giant list post reading every1 in the game, that is what you got hung up on in regards to me. why are you unevenly applying criticism?

I criticized you on a multitude of points. JAT was simply one of them. I'm also pushing his wagon, not yours. We can tangle on D2.

I just checked Vivax' filter and I find him the least compelling target. He needs to read the game and not be drunk/stoned. Feels like a shot in the dark at this point.

Artanis. You make me sad.

You made me sad by either rolling mafia or playing this poorly as town

Not having the drive to post and reread 80 times like I normally do isn't playing poorly. I'm sheeping a good wagon. I've been the focus of attention for most of 2 days now at least part of which is due to the fact that vets "caught" me early and the fact that the day has stagnated due to NYE. Like, I don't feel like putting in 48 hours of work in this type of situation. Especially when a cop is probably going to red check me tomorrow. That's a really bad situation for town. You gotta look at it from my side too. Sometimes it's best to bite the bullet to let town move the fuck on.

If you think sacrificing yourself is a better play than proving you're town through good play then I don't think anything I say will help. What I expected from you was some form of direction, but I find it extremely lacking in your posts. To me, the most damning point is having 4 suspects within one hour, and asking none any questions or pressing them for anything (other than calling Marv 100% scum)

If you post good gifs I might still lynch someone else though.

Lots of people seem to think that I'm the lynch. Kinda scary because I doubt many people will actually ahve read the thread by the end of the day or half of it and most of the vets seem to be on that train. But meh. I really dgaf about that. People are just historically bad at reading me correctly.

First off, I'm really surprised that more people don't want to lynch Robik. New Years has fucked with us all I imagine in addition to the surprise start, but Town!Robik tends to play quite differently. He's aggressive; he bounces all over the place. He makes huge sweeping townreads that are the craziest shit I've ever seen. He's really passive. Nothing "turns his wheel" so to speak. Usually he'd be on something like a dog in heat by now. That's my first read.

In looking at some of Lazer's past games, he's probably an ok lynch. Marv is right on that he's pretty much a background player.

I mean, he's on track for a >10pg filter by the end of day 1 and the most prominent memories I have of him are obnoxiously pushy questions that don't have a clear endgame and asking the cool kids what to think. Seems like he's said a lot so far in terms of post count but a little in terms of actual value.

This is out of place in where I am int he thread. But I'm pretty sure that this is kinda exactly why I've been called scum this game. At least in part. Pretty odd that Eden defines that as my scumplay. The other thing about Eden that's been bugging me is that specific weird heuristics get dropped from the scene for no reason. Usually when town goes ham, they go ham. But there's a specific level of crazy but not too crazy that makes me think that Eden is probably a pretty good lynch as well.

It's been a while since I've played with you, but my memory dictates that you press your suspects far more than you've done this game. Perhaps I should put that to the test. As for a lot of your questions, I think NYE is a good excuse and that Day 2 will provide more clarity on their alignments regarding Robik and Marv. As for being tunneled for 3 more days; that all depends on what happens in those 3 days. There's plenty of games where a main suspect on D1 becomes a universal townread later in the game. If you think people will just tunnel you anyway, why did you sign up? Surely you must have some faith in being able to get townread if you're in fact town.

Oh hi Eden. Funny timing.
I think Chyz is a better lynch than Geript because Geript will probably actually try in D2 whereas I don't think Chyz will add much of value. I think they've got about the same chance of flipping scum. Geript didn't even really try to get me to not vote him but was more concerned with how to act afterwards. Could be WIFOM but I got the WoS-approved feels from it.

How do you know?

Vivax went to bed. That leaves me, Geript, Eden and yourself to have posted in the last hour.

Actually depending on how the votes are divided that might be enough
