The thing is that you were insulting and shitting on players way before being ignored. And yes, I would say being overly emotional like this is alignment indicative for you.

I mean even if you look at my "arguments" with milo (who is not actually confirmed mafia, his posts don't actually sound too bad sometimes) they are constantly bringing up valid points about his stances not matching up to what he's said previously. Arguably, I've been doing a lot of work while people just chill out and say they'll do stuff tomorrow instead.

That's not the case at all. When did I shit on players d1? I simply made an exaggerated case on Trfel to get his posts actually started and when they didn't it was a bit frustrating while another player hard defended him and kept throwing accusations my way instead. Another player that claimed miller ignored me for scum reading her with valid points? You didn't even respond to my other points on people at deadline when a lynch was already locked in. You disregarded my points on milo which are seemingly entirely valid now. Like 2 people have even talked about my rsoultin posts and all in the mean time people just keep idly saying i'm mafia because i'm annoyed. I think it's totally justified.

Please. If you think emotion is indicative then make a case because I certainly would love to hear it.

If you think i'm mafia and don't really give a shit then i'd ask that you just keep me in a list and refrain from mentioning me until you actually want to lynch me. It would be helpful if everyone did that actually because then I feel I could be far more productive (and please respond when I post something)

You shat on rsoultin pretty badly. You have been shitting on me for a very long time now. I never disregarded your points on milo. I made one simple point that going after a new player for this exact thing has failed very recently which I think is a fairly reasonable thing to point out. That's literally all I said about your milo stuff but you had to construe it like I shut you down which is just completely ridiculous.
I do not need to make a case on why shitting up the thread like you do is scummy. It is pretty obvious and you JUST did the same as mafia in himalaya. You are a smart guy and a more than decent townplayer who is able to be aggressive and investigative without resorting to shit like this as town. The post Trfel made about this which you completely disregarded for a pretty minor reason is pretty good.
And yes, I do not intend to engage your further with this since it is just not worth it regardless of your alignment since we have 2-3 lynches lined up and I do not need to convince you that you are mafia anyways. But if you say something I disagree with then I will point it out. And I will remember people from time to time that I think you are mafia because otherwise they will forget it and mistake your effort later in the game for townyness. Or you will just say "he never really called me scum" like you did with rsoultin last game.

No let's do this. Do you think what he posted last night is not scummy?

I think its pretty damn null.

Well that's pretty damn weak. Vivax does the same thing wave does. Come in, make an excuse for his play, and bails. A townie doesn't go "hey guys, sorry I'm bad, gonna keep being bad until you lynch me" a townie tries their best to appear town. Vivax and wave aren't thinking like that, they're just trying to find excuses for their scummy play rather than actually try to appear more townie by helping scum hunt.

This is completely false btw.

It's not. Be emotional that's fine. But you are very often shitting up the thread and burying important shit with your whining. You are doing this consistently. Town can definitely do this but only when they are bad. Are you bad? No one else seems to think so. So you're pushing a scum agenda in that way, and it worries me.

I have looked into rsoultin just not very deeply yet, there's really no rush on it at the moment. I'd rather someone on my list do something useful so I can strengthen my reads. But townies are saying "fuck it we know the lynch so I'm afk" which allows scum to hide in that group of people.


Off the top of your head what emotional shitting up the thread did I do today.


You're bringing up every little point against you, blowing it out of proportion and then defending yourself.
For example, your previous post is not you saying trfel is scum as much as it's saying "I am town", something that really doesn't matter at this stage.

Let's get back to trfel though. His case which you disregarded as his best post because it has words in it:

On July 08 2015 05:17 Trfel wrote:
I need to leave soon, and I haven't caught up in the thread.

I see that milo109 claimed two-shot cop, and Holyflare claimed vigilante.

If it's between milo109 and ritoky, I think I lynch ritoky.

I don't want to lynch Half the Sky, but I also don't know why people are scumreading her?

Anyway, (very) short version of why Holyflare is scum:

Someone once said that Holyflare gets mad as town, but not as scum. This isn't really true, but Holyflare's tone seems to be a fairly good way of reading him.

For example, in Linux Mafia, Holyflare was mad at most people in the game and towards the end of Day 1 started throwing suspicion more wildly at everyone. His anger didn't really have justification. Contrast with Guardians of the Galaxy, where Holyflare and Alakaslam scumread each other early on. Despite Alakaslam being somewhat scummy (he always is, to some extent), Holyflare eventually agreed that Alakaslam could be town, despite objectively having little reason for it. And he didn't let his anger get in the way of scumhunting.

Here, Holyflare's felt way too angry, way too often. One example of this is that he was angry at me. If Holyflare is very confident that I am scum, he should be happy at having caught me, not angry at me for doing scummy things. It makes sense for him to be angry at townies who don't want to lynch me. However, Holyflare's posting didn't at all seem interested in showing people why I am mafia, but instead focused on pointless arguing with me. Holyflare knows when an argument isn't going anywhere, especially when it's with one of his scumreads. Holyflare has no problem filling the thread with nonsense and arguing with no goal in mind.



Let's start with the bolded. If he believes this is the case then he is saying I did not scum hunt at all day 1 which is unarguably false, correct? I'm pretty sure I cased him, rsoul, hts, milo etc etc etc. So, even though I was angry at HtS and Rsoul I was still scum hunting. It's irrefutable. Then, what else is contained in that read? The dropping of reads for objectively little reason which I'm also pretty sure I did multiple times (him, hts at night but that's after this post, wave clearly disappeared from my first list, etc etc.) My list posts have been updated pretty constantly all throughout day 1. So. How can he even make this read if he has been reading the thread? I don't think i've been throwing suspicion at everyone either, sure I've been argumentative with my town reads but anger is just a thing that gets displaced onto other people.

The next paragraph after that, yes I've been angry a lot but if I've dropped my town read of Trfel why does he assume he's confirmed mafia to me? He can't, it doesn't make sense. You cannot even say that I haven't been trying to point out why he's mafia to people. That's legitimately just not true in the slightest. I've been getting into fights with rsoul because I've been trying to point out scummy things and questioning them. I even made a case on his read not existing beforehand and appearing magically and then never featuring in his read on LS in the slightest here:

    When he gets scumread by geript, he just says he's not scum, and then says that something must be impeding geript's ability to read him. He responds to geript's scumread, but without providing any content. He doesn't actually ask geript why he had this scumread, doesn't think about geript's alignment at all, and seemingly assumes that geript is town.

    Furthermore, I'm not used to LightningStrike being this aggressive in his wording.

    Oh? I think I've played with town Scott once. But ls any other thoughts about him?

    Not much to go on him yet.
    This is his first discussion about reading people in this game.

    From what I can tell it's easier to read him later than earlier(Also quick note on the first game I linked he replaced in the night before)
    Which doesn't actually do anything to help his case. "Hey LightningStrike, you're scum because you didn't do this." "Okay, I did it, am I cool now?"

    do you have any town at this point?

    Damdred even if he's wrong on me I see Town Damdred this game.
    The townread on Damdred feels very out of place. This is the only read he's made to this point in the game. Also, note the wording, he says "if" instead of "though". LightningStrike ought to know that he is town...

    Kel I don't get it, you really like my points on ls which I feel is really strong and getting stronger by the second.

    But instead you judge me based on the structure of a town read and don't even mention the ls read that you liked? That's kind of strange


    how i like to read you and rsoul is how you read eachother, your town read on her is less developed than usual i cant explain that shit.
    so i liked the ls case, but ls....like i just fucking hate whenever he types so if i ignore all that shit and try to play outside of that id ont like you
    make sens


    I'm not sure I follow 100%.
    example if you don't like a town read that's ok, but you like another read is developed with support you want to discard because you don't like him anyway? So you don't like me.

    that doesn't make sense and you are discarding part of my game play for no real reason it feels uneven and unnecessary coming from you


    im basically not sure i believe your LS read anymore and anything connected to LS is always slightly aids
    so im looking at your rs read and it doesnt feel as good
    im not 100% i just dont like you in my gut i guess
    it dpeends what ls does


    What does it even mean that my RS read didn't feel as good? Not as condensed as assassins where I had to be vs different here and the last game I played in?

    So you are scum reading me (sorta) on style rather than content?

    And you don't think my Ks read is good anymore when he is 100% still going against meta?


    well..it is like this. scott apparently has few games played and LS did explain the read of like "oh you get him later"
    LS is...well like you never know wtf is happening. so i think a few pages its hard to say well fuck yeh he is lazy...it just doesnt feel good...fuck i cant explain that properly
    so i feel like your LS scum is dishonest and your rsoul is town feels like a cheap rsoul is town comparitively


    Damdred is wrong about my alignment and Damdred does normally rsouls alignment correctly but he wrong on my alignment this game but that wont make him scum if he is scum.
    And it continues. He doesn't take any effort to explain this Damdred read at all. And he's so aggressive towards others who scumread him. It feels like he just townread Damdred to appease him.

    When LightningStrike finally gives a reason for townreading Damdred (in his list post), it's because Damdred is putting in effort. Which wasn't the case when LightningStrike first gave his townread of Damdred.

    Normally, I would expect LightningStrike to ask a question to ritoky, such as "When you return, please share your reads" or something like that. In the Himalayas game, he asked this question very early on. But here, he just comments. No question, no conclusion, just a comment.

    There's a very clear difference in tone between these games.

    Any thoughts on other people atm? I would like to know what you thinking that's all.
    Here's a counter-example from Himalayas. However, I haven't seen LightningStrike play like this as town before, and it still feels like his tone is more meek in this game than his other town games (even the Himalays quote).

    Furthermore, he's being more aggressive towards people who scumread him this game than in other games. Why is he more aggressive in response to scumreads, but more defensive when asking people for reads? It doesn't make sense.
There is one more reason, possibly the strongest reason. But I need to see what people think about this before I could consider sharing it. And no, I'm not going to say what it is at this time, so don't ask.

it's pretty basic but works for him being town from my exp, i have another stupid meta read that i'm waiting on for him too


1st point is a town read like we've said and you should have seen if you were reading the thread

2nd point is just silly because he does that regularly, you can just look at any game and see he plays reactionary to appease people

3rd point you literally compare 2 quotes that are exactly the same and say they are different


When you wake up care to give me your thoughts?


When you are caught up can I have your reads please?


also NONE OF THIS CONTAINS ANY RESPONSE ABOUT LS' READ ON RITOKY LOL

so, trfel's case is based on everything earlier and what did he say earlier?

I think it makes sense now....

I don't scumread LightningStrike any more.


everything after does not change because of his response to ritoky, nothing is different


So how on earth does it look like i've not been trying to show people he's mafia? It doesn't he's simply just posting things to attempt to blend in.



As much as you may disagree with trfel's post, I think it's a good post. He has a good point about you yelling at people you are scumreading which doesn't make much sense from a townie perspective.

Anger is very easy to throw around as scum. You can act all angry and come in and out of the thread, you get people to ignore what you're saying and make them rather not go through the mess you've left behind.

If he believes this is the case then he is saying I did not scum hunt at all day 1 which is unarguably false, correct?


No where in his post do I see him saying you did not scumhunt d1, this is a total strawman.

Yeah, basically this. Thanks for saving me the effort.

Look. I don't get it. You all see this as defending myself perhaps because i've been a whiny bitch. I don't really give a crap about that at this point. I'm trying to point out scummy people and putting in the work to point them out at the moment. If you consider that defending myself then sure. I'll keep on doing that. I'm certainly not concerned about Trfel of all people scum reading me but I am concerned at how he can write that post in the way he did when it is a false representation of this game. It is scummy.

you literally are defending yourself, I dont care what skin you try and dress it up as.

Do you think this is helpful to just keep pointing out things and posting one liners to agree? Why can't you do your own work and actually converse with me and find out my alignment for a change. All these interjections of "lol bus", "lol defence", "totally scummy" don't really help with someone who has been getting clearly aggravated by it does it?

Why is defending myself to point out someone's scummy post is fabricated scummy?

Defending yourself in itself is not scummy. But you tried to sell it as scumhunting and trying to discredit me all the time with things like the bolded is not very towny either. I made one post that could be construed as being a dick in this regard which was the "lol bus" post. Fair enough. But that's it and you are making a big thing out of it again for no reason.

Also with the way you treated me this game so far you really have no ground to stand on here.

It is impressive how you manage to point things like this out but are able to avoid giving an opinion on him like the plague.

When I pointed it out it's like...

I dunno, like he would be yelling rsoultin is scum, and then when rsoultin points out a reason HF is scum he would spend two paragraphs explaining why he would do said thing as either scum or town. He didn't do it because rsoultin's argument was scummy, but rather only to defend himself, which is weird if he is relatively confident that rsoultin is scum.

Stuff like that. Like obviously you get accused you defend yourself but he takes every little thing and then acts like he needs to fight his hardest to not get lynched on the spot, and that kinda defensiveness I see coming from scum more than town.

It's just a feeling tho

I can tell you, for free, that I do that a lot more as town than mafia.

And HF is in general quite a similar-minded person to me.

That might be true but there are huge differences in your play. Your thought process for catching mafia is very similar but your way of presenting yourself in the game and arguing your points is very very different if that makes sense. If you were under suspicion as town you would react very differently.

Homes you need to drop the HF shit now, you're no better than rsoultin at this point.

Oh, no. Whatever will I do.

I want to reiterate this. I'm going to post a bit more tonight. But I don't see any reason not to shoot MZ or to shoot other people over MZ. Yes, shooting MZ is boring and expected and you'll get zero credit for it. However, it's important to note that he will 100% be lynched at some point. So by shooting him, it lets us gain more information than shooting anyone else.

Yes, 100 % agreed.

i have 24 pages filter or something and i think the only egotistical thing i've said is that if i tunnel someone d1 they're usually mafia

you should reconsider your read :p

You're probably town, I wasn't scum reading you. You're a decent player just not as good as you think you are and I find your attitude abrasive sometimes.

If you somehow think I'm a better vigi shot than wave vivax scott I really have no response because I don't understand how you think that.

From tactical standpoint I think shooting me is terrible given what I've already outlined but like I said, now I kinda want to die bc it's gonna be hilarious watching you be wrong.

From a tactical standpoint shooting you is the optimal play because you were the counterwagon to townBM day1.

No actually that's not how that works but good try!

That is exactly how that works. There is noone whos flip gives us as much information as yours does.

you misunderstand.

your egotistical read, not your town/mafia read.

if i'm wrong i'll shrug and move on

Do you really actually think I'm a better shot than wave or vivax? Why? Literally the only reason you think I'm scum is that you didn't understand my read on milo/ritoky (which you now agree with).

There's a quote in someone's sig somewhere. maybe bugs' sig, or maybe the sig is a quote from bugs.

it's about the timings of being correct. something about being correct at the right and wrong times. and in this case the reasoning behind it.

like sure i can be wrong on you, i just don't think i am. i think you'll flip red, and if you don't, it was an incorrect read on my part (obviously).

i also personally think your push on Vivax/Wave is kinda shallow. It's a very typical "they're lazy = scum", it seems pretty unnuanced, it seems formulaic.

I think it is bugs signature and actually a Palmar quote.
