Eden is prolly town for trying to at least figure out the game when the thread was in stalemate.

Although I don't think oats is playing greatly like the aggressive town player he is there are others who are very unmemorable for example, drparnassus and breshke or even lala.

sidenote: games in other forums takes a very long time, sometimes even months. This game is actually really fast paced in comparison. Sorry if I seemed very unmemorable/not posted much, I'll step up my posting.

I have issues with your list post. I need justifications on each player thrown into the townpool (mderg, sl, bats, hts) and more justifications on the scumpool, other than being unmemorable, because that's a terrible way to pick out scum.

There are many scum players, in fact most scum, who play really active and outmatches most town filtersize. Give actual evidence on why you think they're scum. In this case, you were just separating people into "posting a lot" and "not posting much".

How's the defending of LS/obi "overwhelming" if the thread is "in stalemate"...? Seems like a stalled out thread would be more receptive to a push on your suspects, not less.

And what's with the soft defense of Oats? You appear to use meta as a primary tool of evaluating people, yet you're disregarding what your analysis of the meta is apparently telling you. Instead you're scumreading my nulls for being unmemorable. Do you have any actual reason why they're mafia?


None whatsoever except the fact they arent trying to figure the game out. Which is a pretty big reason in the scheme of things. I would like more content from them but you cant get everything u want in life.

I don't think looking for unmemorable people is a terrible way to pick out scum but yeah more reasons are always better.

In this post, I will be both commenting on eden's post and be using it to supplement the suspicions I had on people.

eden's thought on liancourt
+ Show Spoiler +

First is liancourt. Most of his d1 posting by far is pushing LightningStrike, then ObiWanShinobi. Then he ends up voting with both on VayneAuthority, because VA wasn't trying d1. This is an odd sequence of events to me because (1) I don't think that's the strongest case to be made on VA and (2) liancourt claims to have only given up on pushing LS and Obi because the pushes weren't getting traction, which should mean he didn't stop suspecting them, and yet he ends up voting for the same guy as them. I know that even if I had failed to convince people to kill my suspects, two of them voting together on someone would have given me a great deal of pause. liancourt just lets the kill happen.


I don't know about the "letting the kill happen" part, but I had some doubts about liancourt as well. His d1 and d2 don't match up: he scumread obi/LS/VA (voted VA), but dismissed all 3 on d2 and took up 3 new targets, which were low hanging fruit for their low quantity posting. Why? I'll be watching him from now on. Also, that amount of bad posts from lian and obi from n1. Ugh.


eden's thoughts on oatsmaster

+ Show Spoiler +

Second is Oatsmaster, his case on Vayne is also not the correct case IMO. It's weird that it's the opposite of liancourt's, and that in the course of discussing this read neither one of them ended up arguing with the other about it. I guess maybe he didn't have to push as hard because Vayne became the lynch fairly quick, but it seems like he pretty much parked his vote and left.


Oatsmaster. I don't know where to begin. His case on VA was legit, and both oats and lian certainly did settle down on VA together. I need more content from him to decide what he is intending to do this game.


eden's thoughts on SL and LS
+ Show Spoiler +

- sicklucker and LightningStrike are probably town, they've both been pretty active and have pushed their lynch hard. I don't think either of the cases they made on their targets d1 were actually good, but I think they were genuine, which is all I need to see to make a read.


I don't agree with using activity and pushing lynch as a metric to decide if they are scum or not, for reasons I have explained.

How would one decide if they were genuine? SL was just tunnelling for d1, while LS kept mentioning that he can't read bats/obi/hts.


Eden's thoughts on HTS

+ Show Spoiler +

- Half the Sky looks reasonably good to me as well. The one thing irking me a bit is that she read me as town for making a "detailed case" on Vayne when I don't remember ever doing so, but it's obvious she cares about the direction of the game. Her interaction with sicklucker about the past game seems sincere enough - I know it's not directly relevant to this game, but I think the entire conversation reads town, go open her filter and find that bit and read for yourselves so you can see what I mean - and she's been rather open with her thoughts.


What about the part where HTS' s filter was just content-less, filled with meta reads? The entire filter just screams 'I'm trying to look like I have content!' to me.

Eden's thoughts on batsnacks
+ Show Spoiler +

- batsnacks is sorta vulnerable to the same logic that implicates liancourt, but batsnacks still pushed reasonably hard on Obi while voting Vayne and tried to get a last-minute vote on Obi instead of Vayne. This strikes me as more of what I'd expect a townie to do if his primary suspect were off the table: go after a secondary one while taking his chances at getting the primary suspect killed instead. I also think he's been a lot more forthright and sincere than liancourt, so I find myself okay with batsnacks, even though to some extent he does the same thing that liancourt does.


batsnacks felt like he was trying to control the flow of the game near end of d1, which makes me think he's trying to scumhunt and settle town down. +1 townpoint.

Eden's thoughts on obi
+ Show Spoiler +

- Obi already called out liancourt for the big thing I noticed earlier, so he's town in my mind for now. Obi does end up criticizing the VA lynch while staying on it, but if you read his filter it seems fairly clear that he got caught with insufficient time to figure out anything else to do due to out-of-game constraints. It's not like he peaced out from the thread and coasted. I can give him a pass on that.


His n1 was toxic. Enough said.


Overall, these are my thoughts about the people that eden mentioned. I will be giving my thoughts about the few orhers later, then decide on where they stand.

Half the Sky (3): mderg, sicklucker, DrParnassus, lalipop
27ninjabunnies (0): DrParnassus, DrParnassus

Currently, VayneAuthority is set to be lynched with 5 votes.

until deadline.

First thought is LOL at trying to do vca on this. Two wagons, one town, the other unknown, clear majority, only outlier vote is confirmed town b/c she was shot right afterward. No layups

In situations like these where the main wagon is town and we don't know the other wagon, we first want to look at the rationale people gave for their votes. The first person I notice is myself, because I didn't give any, because I'm a donkey and I slept through EOD and only managed to slap a fast vote down to avoid mod sanction. No johns, I suck, sorry guys.

Instead I'm going to look at the other people who coasted on the lead wagon.

First is liancourt. Most of his d1 posting by far is pushing LightningStrike, then ObiWanShinobi. Then he ends up voting with both on VayneAuthority, because VA wasn't trying d1. This is an odd sequence of events to me because (1) I don't think that's the strongest case to be made on VA and (2) liancourt claims to have only given up on pushing LS and Obi because the pushes weren't getting traction, which should mean he didn't stop suspecting them, and yet he ends up voting for the same guy as them.

Other notes:

- sicklucker and LightningStrike are probably town, they've both been pretty active and have pushed their lynch hard. I don't think either of the cases they made on their targets d1 were actually good, but I think they were genuine, which is all I need to see to make a read.

That's all I feel like doing right now, I'll do more later on but this seems good enough to start with.

Town: me, Obi, HTS, SL, LS, bats
Mafia: Oats, lian
TBD: Breshke, lollipop, derg, Doc

To the townpile you go. Especially the part about liancourt looks good. I'd imagine a townie would at least question his vote more, when he is on the same wagon as his two main suspects. His vote literally made no sense at all.
