So I've been skimming the thread each day. I was going to take notes until I saw that PMs are allowed at night, at that point I figured there's no point in trying to keep up from outside. Anyway, it would be really helpful to me if people could say what exo has claimed to them about his role. This can wait until the night phase if it's information that hasn't been given out to the thread. This role has some pretty interesting mechanics that AFAIK haven't been claimed yet in the thread, although I could have missed something. I feel terrible for Exo for going through what he is right now and wish him the best, but unless he worked with people in pms to find some kind of plan, I really really don't understand why he did what he did with his role. | ||

I think I hear my advisor coming but I'll try and post a few initial reads soon. | ||

Remember that for all of these reads, I don't have the benefit of PMs so there's a lot of information I'm lacking. So I think that Kita is mafia. The things he's pushing in thread and the kind of posts he's making are exactly the kind of things I remember him doing as mafia. - Being really active. Straight up activity has won Kita at least one game as mafia that I've been in where he was actually more active in thread than any townie; I distinctly remember the sentiment "kita can't be mafia, if he is we might as well give up because he's the only one being active." He's the kind of player who is confident enough in not getting caught out as mafia that he can put in a lot of effort and not just make a lot of posts but actually maintain thread presence. - Being really active without actually accomplishing anything. Think about it - who has he pushed this game? What has he really gotten done in terms of scumhunting? No one and nothing. And yet he's got a ten page filter, and has some of the longest posts (at least that I remember seeing when I was skimming the thread). - Making the kind of posts that demonstrate effort without actually accomplishing objectives. List posts. list posts and more list posts. But in none of those list posts does he really present and push a preferred lynch target. Also the big early BH read post. So much effort, so little conclusion. Same for the VE read post, really. - Declining activity as the game goes on and his position is more and more secure. Admittedly this one is based on my impressions, but there's a pretty clear scum motive to this trend. This isn't how Kita plays as town. I mean, unless things have changed since I was here, but I remember Kita being someone who would make plans and push things - not necessarily cases but either cases or plans or coordination. Right now I can't say Kita is pushing anything except his own activity. ##vote: Kita | ||

That does not mean that we should not lynch the only 100 % scum we have. Like you people can discuss other targets and do analysis about them as much as you would like but in the end we are lynching damdred today. Here's how I'm thinking about this - we already have a game with a somewhat gimped lynch (majority lynch) with at least one ability to cancel a lynch (controlled by town but still) and potentially more. In the last couple of Greymist games the lynch was also pretty underwhelming, and town powers were supposed to make up for that. It's definitely not out of the question that damdred could have some anti-lynch power - one-shot lynchproof, suicide bomb/vengeful, vote redirector. It's also not out of the question that he's just claiming scum. The thing is, we can't just let him live. So unless we have some really reliable way of either killing or investigating him tonight, we kind of have to lynch him anyway and just grit our teeth. | ||

Crossfire actually sent them to me already, before anyone knew that this is okay. This actually makes me more suspicious towards him, rather than less, but I would rather kill Kita first anyway | ||

Since I pmed Exo, I thought it would be nice if the replacement was able to actually play the game with the knowledge the previous player had. Sorry for being helpful... I appreciate it - it was just weird that you sent it to me but didn't mention anything in the thread about having asked if it was okay, made me think of a different place than PMs where people ask hosts questions sometimes. I don't think it's a big deal. | ||

I as lestrade the role-category-cop i also recieve the results, but not the target, of two other cops. one of them was marv the alignment cop, who was shot N1 but checked someone and got GUILTY. he crumbed no checks but had VA as a scumread. I'm pretty sure he checked VA. i get it if you don't want to lynch VA today, during our first lynch, but i have zero comprehension of why people actually think VA is TOWN. no i read all that when it happened, I have been sort of following the game it's just you, like, refuse to acknowledge the evidence people have presented as to why the check may not have been on (probably wasn't on) VA - marv specifically saying in his how-to-cop not to check the first suspect I don't have any particular reason to think VA is town but I'm inclined to discount the red check for a few reasons: 1. I don't 100% trust you in the first place 2. Especially since you really haven't talked about anything but this check 3. Especially since AFAIK you've never engaged the counterargument to this check 4. Especially since your intentional baiting of Koshi is specifically in line with your scum philosophy 5. Especially since you did the same thing to like rayn I think in a game where you and I were scum together 6. Basically I think you're scum too but I am less sure about you than Kita because of the missing-moriarty question 7. Also sometimes you just play shitty so this could be one of those times. 8. But since I think you're play is pretty fucking scummy and you haven't engaged with the counterarguments to the only thing you've been saying, I'm not going along with that thing. | ||
