Problem with that is that he mentions he's back to voting for Palmar in response to that question before he expands, so he had already been thinking of switching back to Palmar before anyone triggered him. Palmar hadn't posted between the time Toad switched to SL and went back to Palmar. Did you copy & paste that from someone out of Hammertime? Sure as hell feels like it... There were plenty of people who said exactly the same after Palmar ruined the thread... like how I'm fluffy and useless and they expected me to do more and I ended up getting lynched for it, which you know about as a host. I let go of Palmar for a second because SL sounded really bad. If you look at my filter you even see me going back and forth about SL, how I mention that the emoticon read is bullshit because all it does is show that he's an unintential liar no matter of alignment. And if it was unintentional no matter of alignment it's not alignment indicative, it just shows that he's a liar. And a bad player. Seems like lynchbait to me and I apologize for going after him. I should have been smarter than to let myself get fooled by people saying he's stupid and therefore mafia even if it only lasted for about an hour. I got back on Palmar because he's mafia and like I said, I lost the last games because I was too carefree as town and didn't manage to get the weight of my reads explained resulting in people not lynching mafia even after I got killed first cycle like 4 times in a row statint who's mafia and who's not.

So why are you doing this Palmar? 24. Toadesstern As Queen Zeal, Was Lynched Cycle 5! as mafia gg did you even bother going through the list? You see I'm using it in my towngames as well: first game is this, second game is JoaT that has Toadesstern in the OP.

Why not come to the conclusion that I'm just using that word a lot no matter what? Even in irc when not playing mafia... no i didn't bother because it was far too much effort and I don't really care enough to click past one game (+ i still thought joat was ongoing for some reason) but this doesn't matter because what palmar said is true because it's exactly how I felt funny how you mentioned how it's important to look at peoples reasoning and not just at the result just recently.

Vivax is lying. There is absolutely no way we have two fucking Drax in the game. No way If Toad is mafia, he's sacrificing himself for a Vivax mislynch. He made the decision in about 12 minutes, so it's unlikely this was a pre-planned idea. At face value, CCing a town vig as scum is a terrible idea as you're likely to get a 1 for 1 trade at best. The play doesn't make sense for mafia to do. There is a little thing that worries me about Toad: His flip on Vivax. Toad was just as convinced that Vivax was a good lynch as I was up until deadline and the way he strongly pushed it made me feel he definitely believed in it as well, but the fact that he shot VE over Vivax is worrying because there is strong mafia motivation for it.

The question about Onegu is wether or not he did it to draw shots or to fakeclaim to not get lynched as lurker wh does nothing. You can make an argument that he's more likely to be town because Rayn said he's not mason with Onegu. Would mafia!rayn just go along and claim mason, happy about suddenly being townread by everyone and their mom?
We literally had him as orange / heavy red before the mason claim, about to lynch him, Onegu claims Rayn is his buddy and suddenly everyone is townreading Rayn. And that made sense. But this just doesn't seem coordinated between Onegu and Rayn at all... unless this is some crappy wifom "look I wouldn't do this as mafia" but that's pretty convoluted. Pretty sure they're just not mafia together Actually, the benefit to Rayn responding in this fashion is that Onegu and Rayn's fates are no longer intertwined. It's one of the greatest distancing tactics possible. Had Rayn confirmed that Onegu was his mason buddy and one of them flipped, the other would be guaranteed screwed. yeah but again, look at where we were at that time: ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/toNtIXB.png) Rayn was about to get lynched at that time. So you're saying it's a move to kill himself while making Onegu not look bad? I don't know about you, but after Onegu's claim that Rayn was mason with him I townread both of Onegu+Rayn heavily. maybe not as heavy as Onegu on his own but still. At least wouldn't he just shut up as mafia if they're together until the day is over, especially if he's supposedly the RB?  Basically he's keeping up very well with the thread and is attempting to solve the game. Despite the one point I raised, I feel confident in calling Toad town. If he's mafia, then he's played a great game and I'm fine with losing to him. I will not be re-evaluating him barring extreme circumstances. Additionally to this, Rayn also went after Toad pretty hard. There is actually a thought that troubles me though: Presume scum Toad yolocced vigi to get Vivax lynched. Toad has a history of fakeclaiming (LI never forget). He figures he might be able to get away with it, but the scumteam gets mad and starts bussing him harder than before (Both Rayn/Palmar were bussing him long before this). They figure that once Vivax dies Toad is in massive shit. However, with a BM flip the whole vigi situation would persist. This would explain why scum wanted to switch to BM when they got the opportunity. ++++ Reads overlapped with me a lot throughout the day. Lots of coinciding thought processes. +++ Palmar bussing him from the get-go when Palmar doesn't bus very regularly. ++ Vig CC + Confidence - Yolo theory makes a certain amount of sense for Toad -- Why shoot VE when he wasn't a scumread?

I think there's a very reasonable chance it's a joke. Though of course you are right that if Eden is in fact a miller, he wouldn't know. Claiming unaware miller is something I was planning on doing eventually. Actually, I would have done that this game, but I forgot and claimed mafia instead. idk yours was obviously tongue-in-cheek. This was a lot more subtle if it was a joke I'm still inclined to give Eden the benefit of the doubt, and I see no real reason to say he isn't joking. Well then I'm excited that you've given eden an out if he did infact slip. You asked for an answer twice, so I provided one. Eden isn't a moron, I'm sure that if he actually is scum, he would say the same thing. And I have two other reasons to say that this isn't a scumslip. 1. Look at Eden's tone. By saying the specific name of the miller, he shows that he's read the first page to find out what the miller is, which contains the phrase You are not aware. So, it's extremely unlikely that Eden didn't know that the miller was unaware. Furthermore, if he wanted to claim as scum, he would have said straight-out that he is claiming, not this indirect reference. Thus, I'm inclined to think that Eden is joking. 2. Eden townread rsoultin very strongly, and very early in the game. And he did this knowing that he wouldn't be able to provide good reasons for it, much less explain this read to the thread. I don't really see why mafia!Eden would want to do this.

In Down Under 2, Alakaslam was wagoned for most of Day 1, but never actually defended himself. He was scum. Perhaps aggressively defending himself is a sign of being town?
And I am well aware that I am both ignoring and using meta on Alakaslam simultaneously. Deal with it. Then there's obviously his orb claim, tracking a mafia LS. Since we know Palmar was part of the mafia team, unless mafia believed that Rayn was indeed a tracker (in which case Ritoky is town), I doubt they'd be worried about a track and would simply let Palmar take the credit. Trfel's not known for having the strongest scumgame and I don't think they would sacrifice LS just for his cred. At this point, I'm happy to call Trfel town and resign to losing the game if he is not. Since then, Trfel has claimed to be Veteran, and he feels extremely disconnected from the thread. I don't like how he mentioned how "Ritoky or Fecalfeast is the lynch tomorrow" when Ritoky had literally claimed scum. His veteran claim was a little odd, but he has proven that he was breadcrumbing it for a while which means that either it was a long, long pre-planned move, or it was town breadcrumbing. I actually think it's really unlikely for mafia to fakeclaim vet here, especially planning it this far ahead. Damdred mentioned a few points regarding Trfel's weird blue post and his reads constantly changing, but I think that's more likely to come from a town Trfel than a scum Trfel. If his post regarding the blues was made to breadcrumb his vet role I can see that being true pretty easily. +++ Tracking LS +++ Vet Claim + Confidence earlier in the game + Tone -- Disconnected from the thread in recent times 8.5/10 Townie rating

Shoot, he's just suspicious of everybody so it doesn't really matter! I wonder when TheChyz will have something substantial to say. Apparently his scumreads aren't very substantial at all as he says himself. On December 31 2014 17:30 TheChyz wrote: I don't have a reason to vote for eden. Because someone is my largest scum read (at this point in the game that means he is the least towny out of all like, what , 5 players) doesn't mean i need to vote on him. Garbage vote atm so why would i do it? With this post let's try to get a masterlist of all the things you think about Eden, your #1 scumread. Sorry if I'm redundant. 1. Eden is my largest scumread. 2. Eden is scummy because he uses defensive wording. 3. Eden is scummy because he is afraid of jumping on anyone. (I would assume this means accusing, pressuring,voting - all things Eden had done before he brought this up) 4. Eden is scummy because he seems cautious and fearful. 5. Eden is scummy just because his wording just doesn't seem right. 6. I have no reason to vote for Eden. 7. Voting for eden is a garbage vote. 8. Eden is the least towny of all the players. And then: On December 31 2014 17:39 TheChyz wrote: Defend what read? Stop spewing garbage and putting it in peoples mouths. I didn't like how eden is formulating his soft accusations and I haven't dismissed it yet. Is it anything to push on, no? But alas donkeys like you like seeing garbage reads so I thought id give you one. Here's another ##vote: DoctorHelvetica Eden's soft accusations resulted in a vote on you pages ago. Now you're accusing me of being soft for not voting for you but eden is soft for whatever reason because I guess you have to stick to your guns or something. I'll wait a few more hours to vote and see how long you chase your tail over it Everyone read this again. Thechyz has yet to contribute a thought out read or try scumhunting. All his votes are jist omgus and hes still telling people he suspects them basically for not scumhunting or having strong reads. It doesn't get much worse. There is no reason we should not lynch thechyz day 1. Then why aren't you voting him? All of this push and you aren't voting?

Do you think mafia really reacts the way that he did here? This is just a small grasp of the questions that don't lead anywhere he asks. He makes many.
Summarizing Mafia meta: Less posty, engages his scumread a lot, useless questions, forgetful. Town:First thing I notice is how Damdred talks with confidence and goes in against Gobble's read on Rayn hard and with confidence. He's generally quite confident.

Any thoughts on that? Hmm, not really sure I buy it. I think scum geript could have/would have pushed my lynch rather than defend me. ESPECIALLY if rayn is town. If they are scum together, maybe not so much, but for now I'm still okay with rayn being town even though he hasn't posted in over 24 hours. Anyways, my point is, with rayn on my wagon without any sign of stopping, scum geript could have pushed me pretty easily without much fear, and likely gotten the second most experienced player in the game lynched for free. Why would he pass up that opportunity? What makes you think he is scum? A few things are really bothering me about him over all, besides that I will say that the wagon on you at the point of geript entering the thread was pretty strong and there wasn't much fight against it. So fighting against it is a bit wifom but could gain town cred being right etc., Besides that, I think Geript lacks follow up to some of his posts and lacks a real thread presence at this point. For example in some of his original postings he asked questions that have just disappeared in the ether. In no way has he followed up on any of it, he had a scum read on me a good bit has came from then and he did not even mention anything really about the case but he attacked obi for no reasons and then when he got asked questions he disappeared again. I'm not saying hes definite scum, or that i'm as sure as I am on gobble. But I think he looks scummy, especially his push or lack of push and follow up at points. So you're saying the fact that I'm posting less makes me scum. That's a really dumb argument when it's clear from the start that I wasn't going to post as much. It's also rather ironic coming from you. I don't think you got the point at all. Posting less has nothing to do with what I said at all. Furthermore, Damdred's scumread on Gobble leads him to push the lynch and push it hard and doesn't let go. In Horn of Africa, Damdred was a strong suspect on D1 and it made him post a lot. In this game, he was also really sure of Rsoultin being scum and pushed her hard.
Summarizing Town meta: Confidence, pushing the lynches he wants hard. Questions also tend to be much more directed and reads oriented. This gameOne thing to note is that Rsoultin has had a townread on Damdred from the start. She's also kept dropping reasons for them/things she expects town Damdred to do. First thing that worries me in his filter is this: On March 20 2015 07:11 Damdred wrote: I think ff case is good, and the points brought are decent. Like I do think it's bad LS is being lazy a bit here as has been pointed out I'm not sure it's worth a vote but it's something to think about Damdred likes FF's case on LS, says it's something to think about.. then doesn't really think about it until he makes his big VCA post. (Intermezzo Vivax theory: A FF/Damdred bus on LS would make sense, especially if it was the plan for D2 but got trifled by Trfel checking him before it happened) What also bothers me in hindsight is that his case on Vivax wasn't followed by a vote and a push. In his town games, he kept repeating "Gobble is scum" or "Rso is scum". This game, Damdred does not seem as sold on Vivax being scum where he usually has been as town. Then the first big VCA post. I still really like it and I think it's a strong argument for a town Damdred. All of his reads read genuine to me, are developed well (though townreading FF, Palmar and Breshke worries me, I can see the motivation for FF at that juncture in any case, and Breshke's scumgames do look pretty terrible so I can't blame him there either but Palmar was really questionable) The biggest problem with his reads is that they've been very wrong. TR on Palmar, scum on Exo, Slam, and Superbia means that it definitely could've been made from a scum perspective. There's one thing that stands out to me in his reads post, I'm not sure what people think about it: This leaves me in a world where I have two mafia or one depending on setup between Superbia, Trfel and Artanis. I'm just wondering if it's something Mafia or Town would add in. Mafia might be worried about TMI; they would've read the questions Superbia and Trfel asked and it could be in their heads "don't betray how many mafia there are". Something to consider. I also really hate this post: On March 22 2015 02:47 Damdred wrote: Shoot like Exo and Trfel/Artanis
Gives us the most information Damdred scumreads Slam/Exo/Superbia/LS, yet calls for the shot to be between Exo and Trfel/Me. What's really weird about this is that Slam is probably the least likely to confirm himself as town, and remain unreadable forever. The fact that Damdred softpushed for a shot on me is not good. The biggest problem for me in Damdred's filter is that besides those two posts, he's not really doing anything.. He isn't pushing his scumreads. He isn't really engaging anyone, just posting oneliners. Also On March 25 2015 11:26 Damdred wrote: I kinda want to lynch breske This kinda came out of nowhere as Damdred had been townreading Breshke a few times already before. It bothers me that I don't know why Damdred thinks Breshke is scum at this juncture because usually Damdred is very clear about who he wants to lynch and pushes it hard. Then there's his second VCA, which mostly concludes that scum wanted to lynch BM over Vivax since Palmar made the late switch (if this is the case, Mafia know about it anyway so it's an easy point to make) and then goes into the reasons for why they would or wouldn't switch to BM, but he doesn't really base his conclusions on them. It feels more like he had his conclusions already ready (in his townreads) and simply found another narrative to tell them. ConclusionHonestly, there's a lot of things that really worry me about this Damdred. He's showing scumtraits in that he hasn't really cared about who gets lynched, hasn't really appeared to be confident and I don't get where his read progression on Breshke came from when I usually have no problem following Damdred's thoughts. What still gives me pause is that he's never made these kinds of big cases/VCA's as scum, and that they're really hard to fabricate. I also know Damdred hates playing scum so from that perspective I find it unlikely he'd put this much effort into it, but I'm just not sure on him. I don't know what to think about Damdred. So I was pretty conflicted on Damdred, but I'm pretty sure at this point that he's town. Toad made a good point in that Mafia Damdred probably doesn't push the notion that both vigis are town. He also pointed out that Damdred's been pretty confident in points, but most of all I just don't think scum Damdred could pull the rabbit out of his arse that he's been pulling this last day and post this god damn much as scum like ever. +++++ Activity/motivation boost +++ Long cases/analysis ++ Effort/Confidence - Read progression on Breshke - Hasn't really cared about who gets lynched Townie scale: 9/10
Which means I'm once again left with Fecal and Onegu, which bothers me a little bit because both Fecal and Onegu have done things that I find difficult to consider for scum. OneguI'm not quite that familiar with reading Onegu. I believe he's rolled scum a lot and he seems to be more comfortable with it than with town from what I've heard. This game I'm finding him not very useful. He doesn't really seem to be digging underneath the surface, going for whatever seems most obvious to him at the time. He simply decides that the setup can't contain that many blues and goes after the first blue that claims without investigating. I'm not sure if this is alignment indicative for him, but yeah. It bothers me even more so considering the fact that he's now going after claimed blues, yet he kept the charade of him being a mason on as long as possible. What speaks in favour of Onegu being town is LS's interactions, but the only thing I have to compare it with is the way he replied to Geript's claim at the time. A sample size of one is not enough as it could be that this plan was more clearly communicated in the scumqt. The HF shot also didn't need to be motivated by him being a mason, his play was reason enough. Onegu's also commented on my Trfel towncase without really going anywhere with it, then agreed with me to look into Damdred but barely bothered. The last person who barely bothered flipped scum and I'm finding little reason to presume Onegu won't himself. ++ Carefree attitude + LS seemingly believing his claim + Hopped onto LS when his wagon was picking up steam --- Mason claim that unclaimed only when he had no choice --- Superficial argumentation -- Doesn't really seem to be doing anything, pretty opportunistic - Intensely wrong Townie Scale: 3/10 FecalfeastFecalfeast is the toughest one to figure out. He's made a case on scum LS, but he didn't really push for it even when the wagon got on steam. However, he's been extremely active and motivated in the last few days, and this motivation is something I often contribute to town. He has this magic ability that makes everyone think he's town at EoD by being so god damn carefree as well as caring about who gets lynched rather than it just being anyone but himself. What does bother me about his recent play is how he says Toad is the sleeper scum, then never makes a case for him yet continues to defend himself in ways that are unconfirmable for any of us. He also spends a lot of time telling the thread how town he is. +++ Activity and motivation ++ Case on scum LS + Tone reads pretty townie --- Analysis often seems fairly superficial (e.g. his LS filter connections) and doesn't really factcheck stuff -- Seems more concerned with defending himself in ways that don't really help over finding the 'sleeper scum' -- Everyone else just seems townier than him Townie Scale: 5/10
I still think the lynches should be Onegu, then FecalFeast, with an outside scenario of Trfel but I don't really see it. What's changed is that Damdred is now at Toad's level for me, maybe even higher because there is the tin foil hat scenario I've mentioned for Toad that I don't believe exists for Damdred in the same way, as Damdred's activity this cycle is something I believe he literally couldn't do as scum. I'm most certain of Onegu being scum, with Fecal being second not just because of his own play, but simply because everyone else just seems townier. If I survive to tomorrow, I'd look into him with more detail and check out his meta and stuff but I don't really have the time to do so. Lynch Onegu, then Fecalfeast.
Yeah one of my plus isn't real as I was sheeping my day one vote, and just wasn't around for deadline to move my vote to BM
