I was reading waves filter and he is totally mafia. I can't quite write why, but his actions after geript got lynched are weird. He said he tried to get the lynch off geript? Nope. And he didn't even repeat his sulph scum read until day 2 when sulph made a horrific post. This reads a lot to me like wave asking his teammate to buck it up but then sulph just can't so he bussed.

SO many things are impossible to come from a scum mindset, never mind a NEWBIE scum mindset.

The only people I'll agree to switch is scott. Sulfu is town and ruxxar is an easy mislynch I feel.

c) Hard defense of sulf and scum read of Moosy when nobody was doing either. Sheer suicide and I don't see Rels being ballsy enough as a new player to be willing to fight the entire thread unless it was something he truly believes.

d) Just been doing a shit ton of work in gerenal. While I don't always understand his thought processes (which is a minor red flag) I tack that on to newbie player.

The only, ONLY thing I can see as being an issue is his need to announce to us absolutely everything he does which can on one hand be seen as a 'HEY GUYS LOOK AT ALL THIS AWESOME ANALYSIS IM DOING I MUST BE TOWN' or he's simply newbie town and all gung-ho about doing shit he deems useful. Second option still seems more likely here.

Kickstart what did you say you had on him again?

I can't quote, takes forever. It was the first post after the flip.

During the night you posted quite a lot of stuff but nothing reiterating your read on sulph. Other than your lis post, which I don't count. Then day 2, you only vote for him after you quoted a post which implies that you voted for him because of that post. And your read on sulph is nothing more than "shit posts, must be mafia."


I dont know why you are angry with me for trying to play the game lol. In fact, it's too much. Like you are dismissing my read because I'm bad, not because the read is wrong.

Find the quote Oats. You don't just get to throw unsubstantiated shit and me and get away with it.
As for making shit up about me, you're right I just remember getting frustrated with you earlier because it was about me---it wasn't--- it was just you spouting nonsense and one misunderstanding of posts.


AND, I haven't looked through Ruxxar yet. He may not be scum at all, but by PoE he has a 66% chance of flipping red.

Why batsnacks and not wave or Trfel....
I know I said I'd talk about this if I survived, but I think I need to clear my head.

Be back later.
Here are all of the possibilities I can think of for the night kill.

1. WaveofShadow is mafia and killed batsnacks to try and avoid suspicion
2. Attempt at WIFOM on WaveofShadow and/or Damdred
3. Batsnacks was one of few universal townreads left, and he was never going to be lynched
4. Batsnacks was being very active, and is an experienced player

To me, it feels like the reasons for the night kill were three-fold. Batsnacks was unlynchable, universally townread, and dangerous to scum. This game, batsnacks was very active and he was reading critically. He was always willing to share his thoughts, no matter how controversial they were. Several times this game, he got everyone to sheep him. He certainly threatened to catch the mafia team single-handedly. The WIFOM (both about who didn't die) and the WIFOM suspicion on Damdred/WaveofShadow were just bonuses.

WaveofShadow raised some good points about Rels, but I still can see him as scum for the reasons I mentioned. But I need to take a much more careful look at his filter.

Well the case was on probable town so whatever.

Wave, if you are so concerned then quote the post and destroy me because I'm talking shit
If not, me and everyone else will assume that I'm not talking shit and lynch your scummy ass.

Also day post is at 18:06 for,me and it's 18:36 now Sooo it's right just sucks.

The Phase might have been 48 hours, but it didn't end when the post in Page 1 said it would, and it didn't end at the time all of the vote counts told us it would.

I don't know that the result of the Day would have been ANY different (because my attempts to defend geript did not get a single person to move their vote off of him yet, and in fact 2 more people moved their vote ONTO him after I tried to defend him) but it's "still kinda lame."

Anyway, we're stuck with it, so I'm gonna let it go for now, and just move on.
damdred wrote:
Anyway, who do you think is town/scum

Well, I would again backreference this post:
n00bKing wrote: Situation: 11 players have votes in place, and 2 players are not voting. All 11 of the votes are on either batsnacks or Sulfurus. No one has a vote on anyone else.

At this stage of a Day 1, I'm more used to seeing a smattering of votes on some other miscellaneous players too. Maybe partially because the scum team doesn't want to have all their votes in one place, so they fan out some (and maybe a random Townie or two gets tunneled on their respective targets, and won't budge, even though no one else has any interest in following along).

Theory: This situation makes it pretty likely that one of the two players receiving votes is actually scum, and that we don't have a Town vs. Town situation for our two vote leaders. The scum team has not been able to fan out their votes, because they've needed "all hands on deck" to make sure that the scum player doesn't take a runaway lead in the voting.

Conclusion: Even though there's a lot of time left in the Phase, we may not want to introduce a third lynch target, and should instead stick to trying to pick between these two (since, if the Theory is correct, one of them would flip Red).

This is why I was disappointed to see the surge against geript ignite (aside from the fact that batsnacks' reasoning against him was garbage), because I felt like we had a REAL reason to think that one of the two original vote leaders was scum. I still feel that way now.

As far as which of them is MORE likely to be scum, and which of my town reads become stronger based on the result of the lynch, I should re-read a few things first, and get back to you later.

I agree with this but I think there was also a decent chance Geript was scum outside of the supposed 'slip' and you could see that people were attempting to coordinate or starting to rally around the idea before Batsnacks' post. The question is, did scum see an easy out once he posted and jump on or ignore it entirely? At this point I'd go with the easy out option. I still see absolutely no reason why Sulfurus isn't scum here. AND him and Rels still looked scummier than Geript at the end of the day so some close evaluation is necessary.

Lynch Rels or Sulf next

This is the Geript I was expecting to see throughout the day but he didn't show up. We listen to him I think.

Also something really stood out to me reading over EOD as well and that's th stupid conversation between Noob and Ruxxar that everyone ignored. I ignored it too up until this point.

It's not uncommon for mafia to defend town badly. Especially newer mafia.



Wow bats... I'm speechless.

I had you and geript as my top two scum.

I refuse to believe that you would bus your own scum teammate this hard.
You really redeemed yourself here in my eyes.

I'll have to change my alignment of you to town and change my vote to geript.

##Unvote batsnacks
##Vote geript

Completely useless and irrelevant posting for pages, then ruxxar jumps in with this.
I know everyone else jumped on as well but read through this and tell me it doesn't look like shit. Just ass-kissing of the worst degree, over emphasis on how his read developed and how bats was 'redeemed' when plenty of us found him townier way earlier. It looks like another case where he was just looking for a way to get off bats because keeping his vote there wasn't going to look so good with Rels/Sulf on the block.

Go ahead Oats.
Show me how I said I tried to get the lynch off Geript.

And by doing this shows that all of his previous posts amount to very little.

There's really no reason for Rels to post like this, it serves no purpose for scumhunting or confirming his own alignment. All it does is make it look like he's doing work, but repeating things that have already been said isn't even work.

So. What do you think of plants first and only post ?
Rels thinks that ruXxar is town for making a post with no content at all. RuXxar made a post saying that MoosyDoosy's defense of himself is really good, and then Rels townreads ruXxar for this. RuXxar's inability to defend himself but willingness to jump on someone else's defense of him is extremely scummy, and reminds me of ShoCkeyy in my last game. There is absolutely no reason for Rels to townread ruXxar because of this post.

Furthermore, he agrees that we shouldn't let the mafia stay silent. And he does this by asking his townread about the only other read he's made in this game, and then vanishing. Not actually acting on this whatsoever.

I don't understand this at all. He basically says that he has no reason to scumread scott31337 any more, but doesn't townread him in his list post. And then, when geript (who he was voting for at this time) mentions a reason that he moved scott31337 to null (but says that he doesn't remember the reason), Rels is extremely interested and justifies this by referring back to his initial read on Fake)Plants. The read he already said has changed.

He's just jumping on something that's there, and it's hard for me to see him really trying to figure out scott31337's alignment.

Rels' Read Progression

Rels is generally throwing around suspicions on everything. His townread on ruXxar changed after it was clear that the push on ruXxar wasn't going anywhere. He's scumreading people already being scumread by others, and multiple times he uses other people's posts to justify increasing his own suspicions of other people.
+ Show Spoiler [Examples] +
Criticizing MoosyDoosy's opening post (geript already did this)
Suspicious of batsnacks (common suspicion), geript (WaveofShadow already said this), and MoosyDoosy (geript)
Agrees with the suspicion I voiced on MoosyDoosy
Immediately asked geript for his reason for being suspicious of scott31337, suddenly is more suspicious of him himself (see my previous post)

It seems like Rels is like a leaf in the wind, following thread sentiment, jumping on whatever works. He townreads people who are being townread already, he scumreads people who are being scumread, and only changes when the thread sentiment shifts.

The one major departure from this trend is when he townreads batsnacks. He did this before Damdred jumped in. This is a pretty big change in his read, and against the thread sentiment. However, I think that the way that Rels jumps on whatever suspicion is available every other time in the thread is quite telling.

Alright Rels is mafia. His read progression on sulfurus goes like this:
  • First I voted sulfurus for voting me opportunistically. Rels responds to me saying that if it were anyone but sulfurus then he would consider this scummy, but since sulfurus voted opportunistically last game then it is not scummy.
    Rels wrote:+ Show Spoiler +
    If it was any other person I would have agree with you about voting opportunistically.
    But Sulfu played exactly like that last game.

  • Rels posts a list post where sulfurus is a town lean.

    Town lean
    Trfel

  • Rels repeats that if anyone but sulfurus had voted me the way that sulfurus did, he would consider it scummy. However since sulfurus voted SL and Breshke opportunistically last game as town, then he is not scum reading sulfurus for it.

    Yeah I would have agreed if someone else voted you like that. But Sulfu did that day 1 last game. On Breshke and SL.

  • Rels suddenly says he is suspicious of sulfurus for voting opportunistically, directly contradicting two posts he made earlier explaining that sulfurus voting opportunistically does not make him mafia since he did the same thing in his last game.

    No idea who I want to lynch. Two of my three town reads are voting sulfurus. I'm suspicious of Sulfu for two reasons:
    - The "case" on KS on his first post doesn't exist
    - The vote on BS is opportunist

  • Rels votes geript and says if the wagon on geript doesn't go anywhere, that he will be switching to sulfurus.

But Sulfu played exactly like that last game. And I don't think he misreprented your plays. Last game D1 you didn't do a whole lot either if I remember correctly. In both game you also posted a nonsense post to gauge reactions.


You just voted me for saying something you agree with!!!

Yeah I would have agreed if someone else voted you like that. But Sulfu did that day 1 last game. On Breshke and SL.

These were some of the suspicions raised on Rels through Day 1 and the start of Day 2. They are quite strong, and Rels didn't answer in a way that alleviated the suspicions. What he did do, though was an incredible burst of activity that made everyone read him as town. Furthermore, the Day 2 voting shows that he scumread Kickstart over Sulfurus.

When Rels started going through all of the filters, his reads were as follows:

Now it's time for some analyzis. I will read the filters of each players in the game and post an analyzis of him. For fun here is my mind before doing the filter diving:

Town
Sulfurus
Trfel
WaveofShadow

Town lean
ruxxar
Damdred
Oatsmaster
batsnacks

Scum lean
Kickstart

Scum
moosy
scott

Gonna afk 30 minutes to eat, then the analyzis will start. We'll see after that if the list has changed.


He analyzed Kickstart first. And he concluded that Kickstart is mafia. His scumread of Kickstart seems to be strengthened a bit by this filter dive.
He scumread scott31337 as well.
Then he townread Sulfurus, me (Trfel), and WaveofShadow. And a town lean on ruXxar.
He arrived at a mafia lean on MoosyDoosy, and he's less certain of him than when he started.
Null read on batsnacks. Null on Damdred. Town lean on Oatsmaster due to a clear train of thought and lots of comments.

So, all of this analysis resulted in him moving Damdred and batsnacks from town lean to null, moving Kickstart from scum lean to scum, and moving MoosyDoosy from scum to scum lean. This isn't terribly impressive for the work that went into it. The advantage is that he now has cases and explanations for all of his thoughts.

From here, I'll record his major pushes and read changes. Yes, this is somewhat subjective.
  • Pushes and votes for Kickstart
  • Said that Kickstart was starting to look more towny, but didn't want to switch because it felt like a mafia switch
  • Said that he would only agree to switch to scott31337, and ruXxar felt like an easy mislynch
  • Comments on scott31337's post about Kickstart, but doesn't really say anything about Oatsmaster's alignment (only later does he say that he liked this post)
  • Still says that Kickstart is mafia

    (If you get the trend, he's actually not doing that much. He's not working to talk to his null reads and trying to figure them out, he's only really pushing Kickstart, he didn't draw any conclusion from scott31337's (his scumread) post on Oatsmaster (his town/null/ish read), which he ought to be very interested in. I'll start cutting the small details from this list from now on)
  • Continued to push Kickstart until the deadline
  • Townread on Kickstart for the Sulfurus flip
  • Townread scott31337 for voting for Sulfurus Day 1
  • Some suspicions of Oatsmaster based on scott31337's post earlier
  • Townread on MoosyDoosy for scumreading Sulfurus early on
  • Suspicion of ruXxar for defending Sulfurus
  • Huge voting analysis, used it to implicate scott31337 for his Day 1 vote and bad reasons (what the heck is "Ninja voted geript just before deadline, almost as if he absolutely wanted to be in the group"???). Also increased suspicions of Damdred, and townread batsnacks a little more strongly. Some more suspicion of Oatsmaster, ruXxar's voting looked fine. He liked Damdred's day 2 voting, suspicious of Oatsmaster's day 2 voting, and really suspicious of scott31337.

    This is a lot of work, but he's not really providing reasons for his reads. Mafia can make a vote and explain it clearly, town can ninja vote. Rels isn't taking the next step to arrive at conclusions that make all of the work really worthwhile.
  • "Cross the lists" read plan resulting in scumreads of scott31337, Damdred, and ruXxar
  • Scumread Oatsmaster
It's not really obviously scummy, but it doesn't feel right to me. I'm not really sure how to explain it.

It feels like there are three separate sections to Rels' filter. The first part, where he wasn't posting all that much and there were several cases posted on him. The second part, where he reread the thread and then analyzed all of the filters. And the third part, his play since then. In the third part, he's posted far more frequently than the first one, but I haven't noticed a large amount of analysis. He's being active, but he feels almost like he's only doing enough work to scrape by. Probably the best example of this is how his mega analysis resulted in a lot of things to follow up on (his null reads and his scum reads), but all he did was continue to push Kickstart. I don't understand the complete lack of attention he was giving to everyone but Kickstart through this time.

The large voting records that he created are another example of this. While they were certainly a lot of work, I'm not sure what they accomplished, really. He said that he wanted to do it to investigate ruXxar's alignment, but the analysis that he provided could have been obtained far easier just from reading ruXxar's filter. I'm not sure why he did this, and it feels like it's just to look towny.

It sort of feels like he just stepped up his work when he needed to get townread, and he's been doing work more with the motivation to seem active rather than truly solving the game.

Note: this post is one-sided, the other side was presented by WaveofShadow previously.

I just can't see scum being outside of Oatsmaster/ruXxar/Rels. Oatsmaster does feel like the most likely, but I guess it could be ruXxar and Rels.

I'd really appreciate people's thoughts on the above post about Rels.

See you tomorrow.

Hey trfel, where did the whole thread sheep bats other than ontthe geirpt lynch?

Wave, I'm gonna tell something you aren't going to like.

The problem I have with that post is not that you said you defended geirpt, it is that you were gonna defend geirpt if you could. And the post you quoted was geript talking about scumslips not existing. How does that make him town?? Also you never answered the accusation that you never actually mention sulph other than in your list post on n1, and you only vote for sulph after he posts another horrible post. This makes you mafia because you wanted to try and save sulph but he messed up.

No gg, No skill.

Yo pals, as I said like last weekend, won't be available today, with family + fête de la musique. Will have much more time tomorrow.

Two things I thought when reading the thread:
- Trfel's big post of me contains things that are all true, so no distorsion of reality. But Trfel, if you think I'm not very commited to my reads, what do you think of ruxxar ?
- Oatsmaster has now attacked everyone to defend himself ... To quote a WOS post without looking for it, he's "throwing mud everywhere to see where it sticks". If deadline was now my vote would be on him.

It doesn't make him town, all I said was I wanted to look into him again but I didn't get the chance.

And apparently the only thing that wouldn't have made me scum is to vote Sulf and talk about nothing but him right off the bat of D2? I talked about Sulfurus plenty up until that point, and pushed him as well. If I didn't decide to vote him until his terrible posting triggered me to remember to do so, then that's my prerogative and there is nothing even remotely scummy about it.
The fact that it doesn't fit into whatever convoluted timeline you're attempting to come up with is meaningless. You are twisting anything and everything you can possibly find in your desperation but all it serves to do is make you look worse. You are grasping at the thinnest of straws to escape your fate, and why you have chosen me to latch on to I have no fucking clue. You would have had better chances with Rels or something.


I'm going to tell you something you're not going to like. I'm done with you. I don't see how a town Oats could possibly play THIS horribly. Even for you. It reeks of scummy desperation and a bad choice of mislynch.
