We don't know that he will be mod killed yet

I do want to lynch you. It looks like a slip superficially but if you read the post in context clearly it is not. So I inderstand why you may have interpreted the post that way but I think you took it too far

You are playing poorly and don't seem to want to drop anything. For a person who plays this a lot that doesn't seem very logical. Hence I think you are probably scum

Took a nap cause I was feeling like shit and moody, probably came through in my posting. Lots of people have taken issue with my Nydus town read. I just want to say again that it was hastily done and I just said it off the top of my head because people were pressuring me to give more town reads (which again I don't find fair since I gave them, but people are greedy and wanted more and I reacted badly). It can be ignored and I have tried to explain why it happened, I will have to reevaluate him later but like I said I would probably not lynch him at the moment.

this post is scummy as hell and just screams to me that you're just trying to survive

Hey guys I'm back online.

I have to admit, I'm a little blown away by how much back and forth there was. I guess there's no other way to do forum mafia, but still, it's tough. I sort of feel like I should print out all of your names on a big A3 page and then draw lines between each of you representing defences and accusations. In fact, if anyone has the time to do that, I think it would be helpful (especially later in the game, when nobody can be bothered to go through a bazillion pages of text).

My only reads, and I admit they are very weak, are on Kickstarter and Viscera. I thought that both have taken a somewhat 'holier-than-thou' tone in their posts. Kickstarter started off with a very lecture-y post which felt to me like an attempt to stake out his town credentials before the mud began to fly. Then again, maybe that's just how he is as town, I dunno. Viscera has similarly been very confident in his/her posts, which is suspicious to me because I'm just not sure about anything at this point.


I do not like this post. It really does not say much and have any conclusions - although he shares the same ideas with VE as I do -

VE - in particular, I agree with his read on scott and GG, and also on KS. I also think he has a point about the way you entered the thread (and this is something I've said before as well). None of that is to say that I have a strong read on him either way, I just don't agree that anything he has said or done obviously makes him mafia.


I'm going to keep an eye on him for now.

Damdred never did reply to my meta question and has magic meta townreads, but we wait until Day 2 unless something comes up.

VE is noting Chocolate is trying to get a easy ML on me, I like where he's going with this - and I don't think it's a VE pocket, although I've seen him play like that either way.

From how Milo defended himself I believe he is town. I still like Kickstart although the thread consensus seems to be the opposite.

I'll reread a few pages of the thread I was pretty blitzed last night when I did so.

no need to freak out on me, think about what I saw and it's a fairly logical read

few posts, evidence of reading, one post saying "yeah this player that's contributing a lot looks good"
obviously now that you have contributed more I have more to base things on but come on

my response to your post is basically what I just said, with what I had to work with, scott was a pretty clear read, obviously that's changed a bit since he has contributed more

also it was a case of someone with pros and cons vs. someone who seemed to only have cons

Ok last thing I was wanting to reread and look at for now. This whole VE, Chocolate, and Milo thing.

VE struck me as town pretty easily, prob something I need to recheck but I'm prob going to go with it today. Not sure I like how tunneled he seems to be. He made one post which looked like he was willing to drop it, but now he seems to be right back on Chocolate like he's peanut butter or something... + Show Spoiler +
Sorry, that was weak. I'll stop trying to be funny...


As for choclate himself, he''s kinda just OMGUS right back at VE. Milo isn't going this route, but he is clearly frustrated by the whole thing...

My personal opinion is that that all 3 are probably town here and are just over reacting to a rather stupid "he's afk" comment. I don't expect anything fruitful to come from this interaction.

This post in Chocolate's filter caught my eye though...

I don't play forum mafia very much but I don't like the idea of having town reads. To me that seems somewhat counter-productive since at this point any player could be town. It's easy for a scum player to post in a "town-friendly" way (which is I think a reiteration of the "tryhard" vibe). I believe it would be much more productive for people to look for scum reads than to try to identify people as town

@ VE do you have any opinions about people other than me and milo


At first that sounds reasonable, but then I have to stop and think. Isn't it just as easy, or beneficial, for Mafia to be putting a lot of scum onto people? Also for someone who is putting alot of emphasis on scum reads being important I can't help but look at his list of people he'd like to lynch.

Scott
VE
Onegu
GG

I would pick Scott as my #1


2 people who were not very present in the game, VE, and GG. I can't find a read on GG from Choco in his filter at all, so really VE is his only real read here. That doesn't seem like very decent scum reads to me from a guy who is stressing their importance.

@ Choco
I see your more active atm. Care to update us on your scum reads?


VE for previously stated reasons, it isn't purely an OMGUS though of course that is probably it to a large extent

KS I'm beginning to think is a bit fishier but it's a small hunch

I have a very hard time reading damdred , you, and ritoky. Admittedly I kinda have a hard time reading the newer players too (because I subconsciously associate posts with icons lol) but tomorrow I'm going to go through them all again

Onegu has pretty much been a shitposter so far which I don't like and don't think is good for town

As for not liking town reads, for me it's because anyone I don't think is scum I am leaning towards null or town on (in which case I wouldn't want to lynch them). It can also restrict thinking - we need to, and do, change who we think may be scum somewhat frequently. With town, since calling a given poster town is usually held to less scrutiny, we can let that label linger and it can affect our reads

[to everyone] Don't be offended if I call you or something you did scummy especially on the first day. There's very little to work on and since I don't think calling people town is productive I don't make a lot of friends

my thoughts went from
"him siding with kickstarter"
to
"he apparently read about half of what we've posted today and yet only came up with a very "safe" (in the sense that it makes sense to call the most active player town) read"
to
"What good is it to say "X player seems town"? There's no risk at all in that situation. "
to
"General inactivity
His only contribution of note was to call a very active player town which seems way too conservative"

it wasn't policy per se, IDK where you're getting that from. it was inactivity combined with conservative play

Ahh, so the bandwagon begins

ritoky I don't why you're so interested in an early vote that obviously would eventually be changed
most votes in the beginning of the game are just to make people talk

if I do end up getting lynched I will post a final will and testament (if I have time)

for now I will vote VE in the official thread

actually now that I think about it, VE doesn't seem very scummy to me unless he's doing some ridiculous reverse psychology bullshit, I think this really is just a case of two people OMGUSing each other until one dies

I'm going to keep my vote on him for now but only because I'm not sure who I read as most scummy. anyway here are some reads

for some low post-count reads (like I said earlier they had been all jumbled up in my mind)
Nydus - not a lot to work with but seems conservative yet quite reasonable. null
Fidei - agree with almost all of his posts
milo - I lean towards town, he could be trying to pocket (is this the correct use of the word?) me though, nonetheless I think he has been very reasonable

everyone else
onegu - posting has been shit and IDK why nobody seems to have a problem with it
VE - I OMGUSed him a little hard and he returned the favor. however he still hasn't dropped me at all. I kinda want to die now just to make him look stupid
sicklucker - same boat as onegu
GGT - not really sure why people are super convinced he's scum anymore, I read his filter again and while I do find his posting suspicious it's not nearly as bad as some other people's. I'm not convinced enough to hop on a bandwagon about him. Though I think if he is scum, rather than defending him, people are just trying to bury his discussion under other stuff
KS - quite a roller coaster ride of my reads on him. I find it highly unlikely he is mafia at this point simply because if he wants to keep up his volume of posting and is mafia then he will probably be easy to identify. Also @KS, me "throwing votes everywhere" is how I play. Like I said earlier I don't like to call people town, and as a result I don't make many friends
ritoky - I agree with most of what he says except the things about me and scott. from my perspective pushing scott was very logical and you even thought he was scummy at some point too you bozo. hard to read
TT - I pretty much just like his reads other than the GGT read
scott - didn't like what he was doing at first, now I think he has been making very good points especially about GGT
damdred - hard to read, seems to be setting himself up to bandwagon on me, I like about 80% of his posts

I think that's everyone

It's a really hard choice, honestly since i'm not really sold on anyone being 100% mafia I would just get rid of Onegu/SL as my first choice because
1. it's easy to hide as mafia if you never contribute
2. even if they are town they aren't very helpful

unless someone makes a very good case for someone else or wants to vote one of these people with me I'll probably just leave my vote on VE because it looks like he isn't going to get lynched and (I think) we need to vote for at least somebody

"You still have no scumreads, you still have no town reads"
that is just not true

honestly you're pissing me off and making me not want to play the game anymore. I suck at mafia, OK, whatever. I've only played two games before this and I lost.

just kill me then because it isn't fun having some guy go NOPE YOU'RE MAFIA DIE DUMB SCUM

I was just about to post that I was actually favoring SL over Onegu, but then I realized that SL hasn't posted in a while and Onegu has, also SL has contributed marginally more. So I'm down to make a vote on Onegu

sorry for getting emotional guys

Also, the main reason I don't really have a read on VE/chocolate is I just don't find their interaction very meaningful or useful at all with regards to solving their alignment. In reading the thread it just didn't stick or to me or seem interesting at all. I would like to see their thoughts on myself/tictock/kickstart interaction and of damdred's vs scott's analysis of it.

While I was unable to really discern either damdred's or scott's analysis from their content regarding me/tictock/kickstart, I believe they have spent a lot of time focusing on it. One of them is probably mafia as well tbh.

I don't really see you guys as mafia and I don't think either TT or KS is scum at the moment, just misguided town

I don't have a strong enough read on any of you to say that any individual is scum and I don't really want to vote on any of you currently. Statistically I suppose one of that 5 is scum but that's not necessarily the case

I'm going to read everything again but I never found much of it compelling

milo I encourage you to change your vote to Onegu rather than VE because it looks like most people don't really want to vote on VE currently

ehh I don't really see why you guys want to give onegu and/or SL time

I think reading too much into meta is giving people passes to not be active or play well, which is generally not good

I still don't really understand the push on GGT
