Koshi, to add to Slam, again same with VA, if I were to ignore meta, I would be scumreading both for doing absolutely nothing to help town.

No, not saying the question on Damd wasn't a sidestep, but the ones on Marv and Lian were the first thing that came to my mind. Also SL was trying to convince me at the beginning on Marv, but I'd taken a wait and see approach.

so clearly you knew i was talking about SL dodging a question damdred, you agreed with me. But that question never existed.


We went through this. Did I recall? No. Did I assume? Yes. Do you really think I was going to argue or even comment on a point I didn't recall? Again, I recalled the points I was involved with, Marv and Lian.

Can you answer more dangerously. This is all pretty boring.


Alright, disregarding meta, then.

Lian, I already explained. Scumread.

Slam did press Lian and threatened to vote him if he dodged questions. On this alone, I'd townread him but that's about all he has done.

VA, disregarding meta, I'd scumread since he's not doing anything. Random votes Slam. Is he hiding behind meta? I don't know.

Wile is a null. Answered questions from HF, did do some probing of people in the game, he did ask me some questions. Nothing has stuck out as scumlike.

Oats appeared his usual self until the call for the Bats lynch and the push on Vivax. Those two actions would have me scumread him.

Kels, maybe my understanding of English is different but not arguing a point with you does not mean I'm agreeing with you.

Have you considered that some people may not question something because they feel what they already have in front of them is enough?

Vivax, I was answering Koshi's question to me about his scumpool. His scumpool contained Slam in it. He told me that Slam and Vayne were playing different games so that was in my response.

Yes, Lian is my top lynch, he was a scumread.

I think he's been pretty active since he got pinged out. I like some of the stuff he said.

Also you look at dam and hts just jumping onto the wagon and they are both scummy to me. Especially the way hts did it.


Context please. Damdred isn't even on a wagon, you just called him for wasting his vote. Lian is a scumread of mine, which justifies the switch, and Koshi is pushing to consolidate votes.

Vivax, my first impression of Kelsier is that he appears to be doing the usual things a town should be doing. Questions, followup, etc. The question is whether he's misleading.

I've played one game where he was scum (Carol) and if I recall right in that game he might have been misleading and was eventually caught out D2. Vivax you were in that game too, not sure how much you remember.

Bats called him once for being out of context in this game, but it was not to the level it was in Carol. I'm inclined to say leaning town. Nine-page filter, so might need to keep digging harder.

Hello, back to the thread and reading through now.

Firstly people who are scum reading me for my scrooge comment , specifically viven and rasputin, you don't realise I never actually noticed a hole in the set up but then retracted it is just a reaction test.

viv then goes on to say that I didn't follow up on ff, This is completely false

(additional quotes deleted for brevity)

I pointed out flaws in his logic and have asked follow up questions which he hasn't answered yet. I have called ff one of my scum so saying I don't provide info or follow up is false.

The final point of me being scum is that I am curious about people who town read slam, but don't provide the information. Well I noticed nb called him town quite early and that again made me sit up, but then dam did it aswell and I think rasputin did it and I have both of them town so perhbaps the heuristic isn't that useful, again I didn't make a post saying "actually guys I didn't get information off of people calling slam town" I just gave my town reads.

Again people say I have fluffy , one liner reads are completely misrepresenting my play. I have explained all my reads if you are unsure you can ask me about it in more detail, no one has actually asked me to do that apart from getting me to explain my bs read, they just falsely accuse me.

Anyway having put to bed all those arguments I am going to add a few people to my town circle and then start deciding who I want to lynch.


I'm going to add Lonemeow to the town circle for d1, I like his analysis of the d1 wagon on NB, he looked at the people voting and how they voted and it made him uncomfortable with the lynch, the post felt town. He also reads ff as pretty scummy and I like that read a lot.

So my town circle contains. hf,bats,dam,templar,xat,kit,koshi,lonemeow,rasp,

It is possible that X in my circle finds Y scummy but Z in my circle finds Y town. Yeh town can have different opinions. But these people have projected town to me and I am happy going forward.

My main scum reads are FF, NB, hts, LS and Kush

questions, comments go ahead.

Vivax, here's an example indicator. A more developed read on Kelsier, I'd take a look at Trfel's case on Kels in Carol, and see how closely things align (or mis-align) depending on how you view it. Are you seeing the same jumps in logic?

Ok, I'm pretty suspicious of KelsierSC.

The first real thing he does in the game are these posts, which I'm sure everyone is familiar with:

So i think fecal is scum, we played a game together as town and early game he was very try hard, essentially Kush made a set up/mechanics comment and fecal went back to the setup, worked through all the permutations and then asked Kush to explain. Super town super eager.

this game i make a set up comment, then retract it and ff doesn't bat n eyelid. All he does is talk to slam about sumo. Which is pretty pointless. Like "herez an excuse nit to scumhunt" it doesn't feel towny at all

This feels really weak to me, especially now that KelsierSC linked the game that he refers to. I don't understand how he can possibly find Fecalfeast the slightest bit scummy for this. It feels like he is really forcing this read from nothing, while potentially identifying a stupid Scrooge (which happened...) and appearing towny.

Do you know how I play as mafia? This seems pretty baseless if you do and even more so if you don't.


i saw you play town and this feels like town, I'm happy with the read for d1

Same with his early townread on Holyflare. Even Holyflare says that it is weak, and I agree. We've already established that Holyflare is really good at playing Mafia, and that makes it really hard to identify him. So no, a meta case that early into the game isn't very good. This post again lacks substance, and feels like he is making a read for the purpose of making a read.

Hf, bats have you played with ff much? What is his d1 like normally?

This post seems to take even more force out of his meta case on Fecalfeast. Is it really a good argument, if he isn't sure himself what Fecalfeast's day 1 play is like?

KelsierSC and I seem to be the only two people who read batsnacks as town for the post he made on Half the Sky. (Since then, batsnacks' play has made me much more suspicious, but that isn't the point of this post). The weird thing is, KelsierSC read batsnacks as town because he agreed with batsnacks' post. The validity of batsnacks' post has since been shown to be very questionable, but KelsierSC hasn't changed his stance.

KelsierSC then spends several posts focusing on Alakaslam. Here is his explanation.

You should also stop wasting your time trying to read slam and just try and make him interact with you about this game instead. He can actually play mafia and says insightful things.


I'm not reading slam. But the free town passes he is getting are good info.

especially people who call him semi town.. Wtf is that
Later, he goes back on this and says that this didn't end up working out. More words, less analysis.

His scum list seems to be changing without that much explanation. He says that he would happily vote 27nb, but doesn't include her in his lynch list. And his inclusion of Vivax in the lynch list for bad reads seems strange. Bad reads don't necessarily make someone scum, it is the intent behind them. And these reads are seeming forced.

Later, he comes back with a new post, and Vivax isn't mentioned in his scum reads at all.

The point about his changing stance on ritoky is also interesting. He puts ritoky into his town circle, then adds him to his lynch list, saying he has done absolutely nothing. His explanation of this is that he forgot he had him in his town circle. Shouldn't his reads be the same every time, even if he forgot all of his previous reads? If he was trying hard to make real reads, they would. If his read changed due to new information, that would be good, but the only new information he provided is that a few people scumread him. "I forgot" and "others are scumreading him" are not good reasons to change a read like that, he should at least investigate the case himself.

In conclusion, I would be happy to lynch KelsierSC. Moreso than Fecalfeast, anyway. Obviously it's not certain, but it seems better than anything else.

Now I will take a look at GlowingBear's complete case on Holyflare.

Vivax, based on the above case, I'd focus on his scum list changing - which it appears you already are - and see if it matches the same jumps in logic.

so you scum read vivax and townread me but now you decide to softly throw scum on me once I start calling you out.


can we lynch hts already.


First, I said before my scum read was a weak read.
Vivax asked me a question to help him come up with a read on you. I responded.
If someone brings something up, I'm going to examine it.
If Vivax is taking things out of context I will actually have further reason to scumread him.
If you have a problem with his read or his case, defend yourself. It's that simple.

Kels, did you not read what I said before? Or are you choosing to ignore it like you apparently are with Vivax?

Based on my latest scumreads, the ones that Koshi asked, I would go for Lian, possibly Oats.

Boring play? Sorry I don't have a "sparkling" personality or whatever you deem worthy of being in this game.

I already explained to Koshi where I'm having trouble getting decent reads on some people.

Replying to questions has been taking up most of my time aside from reading filters because I'm getting so many of them. Context please.

On the "gets info for other people" if he's referring to the Vivax question - and yes he DID ask me to help form a read on Kelsier - I already explained to Kelsier why I was doing that. If someone is going to question a townread, it makes sense to look into their motivations.
