What are your current thoughts on any potential LS/Shining partnership or have you ruled it out by now? They are both town. In no world I see Trfel dying if there is 1 or more mafia in LS or Shining.
Walk me through this. Why wouldn't trfel die if just LS is mafia?

You've said my tinfoil hat theory is probably not right. You're saying it implicitly by spending 30 minutes on a case on LS. I'm the ONLY one defending him. Why pick LS for a case?
I just picked it because its my strongest read after I called him out a couple of pages back. I thought you were just after a clear and concise read on someone I'm scumreading. Doesn't matter, I'll look into one of the others detailed above.
I honestly don't think your theory is totally out of it. BUT I would say that I don't find it too likely. Lots of people have been getting scum reads on each of Shining and LS.
As I understand it your argument is that unless they're BOTH mafia then the Trfel kill makes no sense, right? My counter to that would be that you yourself said that Trfel is a good player, correct? And he's played before? This would seem to imply either the mafia team has someone who has at least observed Trfel played before, but that could be anyone so its not really helpful. In any case the point is that you've identified him as a strong player; and I'm sure other experienced mafia players will have done the same.
However Trfel has also been inactive and fairly quiet for a couple of days but one of the things he DID say was that he didn't like any of the three lynches, but by the posting of other people was leaning towards the best lynch being Shining. Towards the end he was focused on the fact he didn't like the WW lynch but that's not really indicative of anything at all. However before that he was fairly clear that he didn't like any of them too much.
In this situation I think its just the simplest explanation possible, which I've mentioned before. You say he's a known strong player. He was fairly quiet but mentioned he'd try to get more active later on. The inactivity meant little chance of a doc save and because he didn't really like any of the lynches it'd cast doubt over all of the wagons. The kill is pure disruption to make us doubt the two wagons that didn't go through as well as potentially eliminate a threat that could come later if he became more active. A more obvious kill would likely give us more to go on.

I think unless all 3 top town read players are mafia (Celestial, Exo, Rsoultin, HTS, and I) the leading candidates would be Celest, ExO, Rsoultin or HTS. I can see thinking the doc save if available would go to Celestial as he was the one most universally towned by literally everyone and probably Rsoultin. Wouldn't you think that you ExO or HTS would be dead?
You had good thread presence but not as active as Rsoultin I didn't think and not as universally read as Celestial. HTS same thing really, she makes really good posts but it's really only 4-5 every 1/2 day period.
Trfel just seems like a bad target to kill. He had 0 reads, he was talking about how he couldn't feel this game.
If there was 1 mafia on the lynch, then it's smarter to kill one of the ones with an opinion (framing the non mafia perhaps) and then mafia can "guide" town to killing the townie.
At least one of the strong players has to be mafia. I think it's celestial. He could certainly guide town to a mlynch and protect his scum partner if there was one.

My point is that I don't think it was obvious enough that he was towning the three. If I'm mafia, I'd cling to the fact that he voted The Shining so how could that be a town read? His reads were pretty null at best. I am the one who spilled the he townread these guys, I wasn't patient enough to ask people what they thought of his reads on shining or LS. I should have, as I think most people probably thought they were null if they thought about it at all.

It did to a degree. Let me ask you another question. Trfel said he didn't like any of the lynches. Having reread his filter a couple times, I found something to be odd. Before the it became apparent that WW or LS or Shining was likely to die, there was only one person whoose opening post he specifically mentions as being off. He never got to really expand on it, but can you guess who it is?

I can't really follow this train of thought. You're saying that if one of the mafia were up for lynch you'd want to NK one of those pushing the mafia lynch, despite it being incredibly obvious? Surely that's just hoping that someone will start to WIFOM the NK on the basis that its so obvious that it can't possibly be that simple?

I'd nk the one with the best case on the town. Hell several of the highly towned people scummed both LS and Shining. It wouldn't implicate either one.

Don't know, me probably based on your post here. Let me filter dive a sec.
So the people Trfel mentioned were Shining, WW and LS (which we've already discussed), HtS who he dismissed as having nothing unusual there, jarjar who he mentioned as giving a break to and never followed that up as far as I can tell, me who he described as not liking my original analysis but never followed it up and right at the end he started filter diving Tubesock but never got to finish.
I think that's all of them?

I think ExO's and Rsoultins reads/cases questioning whatever you want to call it is spot on. It helped me believe my tinfoil hat theory. And Celestial is literally the only person Trfel was like wtf about.
In the meantime, Celestial hasn't pushed anyone even when asked for 5 hours. When he does, he makes it on the easiest possible target in the game.

Celestial can't be bothered to make a case on Jarjar??? His number 2 read in all his scum list posts???
When I asked him to make a case, I said make a tough one that you stick your head out. And he starts one of LS??? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

You asked for a case and since you were bloody well doubting the LS read I thought it would be handy for you to convince yourself on it. If you don't want that then fine.

If you actually check my posts you'd see I was already calling LS out with my original set of reads BEFORE you posted something to really set me off on that path; so no, it wasn't just you.
This is a lie Celestial. Saying he's posting fluff and then giving him town credit is not calling him out. You didn't say anything significant against him until I made my big post. This isn't altering the timeline of events, nor is it misquoting you. It's trying to get credit for FoSing someone you didn't. I'm not letting you slip by with that. Do I seriously have to spell this out? Ok THIS was the first thing I posted on LS: LightningStrike just posted fluff and comments on other people's posts so far. Not really sure what to make of that honestly. Translation: I'm weirded out by his posting. Whilst I was writing that he posted something which changed my mind somewhat, leading me to edit with this: Edit: LS posted as I was writing this. Last post was pretty good in my opinion, some credit there. Still don't want to make a call on him though. Neutral for now. To explicitly spell this out: I didn't like his early junk and pointed it out as being weird, then he posted a good post which made me lean away from suspicion somewhat. No, I didn't post anything "significant" against him because I didn't HAVE anything significant. What I HAD was doubt, which I highlighted in my first post before he posted something that made me less inclined to believe in that doubt, but it did not eliminate it which is why I explicitly said he was a null read rather than leaning town. I notice you're no longer commenting on the later parts of this story. Is that because the stuff you're making up no longer fits then? Again, why are you twisting what happened to make up a story? You appear to be wanting to try to make my reads a lot more extreme than they were. The only lies here are a result of your creative interpreting. I don't know what to say. I don't think saying he was posting fluff is expressing any significant amount of doubt. This means that you were not suspicious of him, and didn't really express it until after I did. You backed off of LS after I left the thread for a while, and didn't get back on to him until 6 posts and 12 minutes after I showed that his current playstyle (everybody's town) matched what he did in a mafia game. Regardless whether or not you used my reasoning or your own, this is the timeline that happened. Two times after I went after LS, you followed it up. You claim the 2nd time was for different reasoning. Okay, I could see that. But then I'm asking myself, why would you lie about the initial suspicion? I don't think your first post demonstrated suspicion of LS at all. I'm significantly more convinced LS is scum than you. But I think you did lie, or at least heavily overrepresented your initial suspicion of LS. To -Celestial-: Lies and such aside. I think part of ExO's point is you haven't really stuck your neck out for any read. I'd love to see you cash in some of this town cred you have and really force-ably push a case. You have to have more than 1 scum read. LS is an easy lynch. Building a case on him is a waste of time and shows no risk. You decided to stay off a main wagon and park on JarJar. Build your case. He's pretty scummy.
Ahem. And this is AFTER I said I'd ragevote LightningStrike....
