Would lynch Sulfurus. Would also lynch Mage or Breshke, to save Ticktock. Would not be happy about lynching Scott without a CC, but...might still do it, to save Ticktock. That Night Action appeared by magic.
Can any of these things happen?

Can any of these things happen? Rayn was just called bad to entertain the idea of lynching a UN cc cop. And you would lynch UN cc cop over another player ? Actually tell me why we should lynch Scott over TT I'm interested. Because Scott's Cop claim is illogical, and I know Ticktock is Town. Have you not been reading the thread?

What was damaging to the Town is my belief that RELS AIN'T NO POWER ROLE in this game.
I blue hunt in my Town games, just as surely as in my Scum games. For two reasons.
1) It's good practice for whenever I DO draw a Scum role. 2) If I can figure out which blue role someone is, I can eliminate them as a Scum suspect, even if they aren't contributing to the Town win condition with their posts.
Seems like a lot of players don't even think about which player might be a blue role, while they're Town. But I do. And you didn't look like one. At ALL. This is why I was so careful to correct the notion that I had said you weren't Cop or Vigilante. And I said no, I'm only ruling you out as Vig in the scenario where Flexes is Scum. And only ruling you out as Cop in a scenario where I'm Scum. I made sure that ALL other possibilities where you are Vig or Cop are left open. So that the Mafia could still think you're a blue role, even though I was pretty damn sure you weren't.
So for me to say you weren't a blue role at that time is damaging to the Town. I can't say that, even though it helps me explain how I know this "n00bKing blocked Rels cuz he might be Cop that was gonna turn in a check him" is ridiculous. It's safe to say it now, because you've already ruled yourself out as one.

Here, I found the quote for you (underlining for emphasis in a couple of spots):

In what world does Mafia Flexes think you are a Vigilante, and roleblock you because he's afraid that you're going to do EXACTLY WHAT YOU SAY YOU WOULD DO IF YOU WERE THE VIGILANTE?? And in what world does Mafia n00bKing think that you are a Cop, and roleblock you because he's afraid that you're going to do EXACTLY WHAT YOU SAY YOU WOULD DO IF YOU WERE THE COP?? If the roleblock goes uncountered, then you're right on the edge of being completely confirmed Town. And yet you're STILL actively playing against the Town's win condition, by putting forth reasoning like this, and setting the stage for a mislynch on me.
Of course that doesn't make you or Flexes confirmed mafia. But the mafia team took the risk of hitting the veteran to roleblock me. Completely dismissing the possibility of them afraid of my powers, like you're doing, is ridiculous. Oh hey look, you're misrepresenting my position. I am SO surprised. Read it again. I did not eliminate the possibility of the scum team thinking you might be a Cop or Vig. I only eliminated two extremely specific scenarios. One where Flexes is Scum and thinks you're the Vig, and one where I am scum and think you're the Cop. Every other scenario where you're a Vig or Cop can still make sense. There is something else that I really want to add on this topic, which more strongly demonstrates how I'm right and you're wrong, but it should wait until after the game. So, the first underlined portion is me making sure that the Mafia should continue to wonder about whether Rels could still be a Cop or Vigilante.
And the second underlined portion...wonder what that could mean? It means that although I'm not going to tip my hand to the Mafia, I'm pretty damn sure that RELS AIN'T NO POWER ROLE.

You never really said so, but it is implied in your filter. What do you think of the claim? Your #3 scum was TT. If Scott goes uncountered on Day 3, then Breshke's suspect list becomes:
#3 - The guy you people just lynched, who flipped Town #2 - The Cop #1 - The Cop's green check
I'm not sure how alignment-indicative that is, but it's too funny for me not to comment on it.

I felt like it was pretty easy to distinguish his scum game in Newbie 12 from his Town game in Newbie 10. What do you think of Sulfurus meta now? It's an interesting thing to analyze. His play in this game does not match his play from any of his previous games, of either alignment. Earlier in the game, Sulfurus' play was a pretty near match to his Scum game. These were the thoughts I posted about him in my big "reads on every single player" post during Night 1: + Show Spoiler +Activity level is basically a perfect match for prior Scum games. First post was strange, and his posts have never improved. In his last scum game, his first post was strange, and his posts never improved. The only post of his that doesn't match his Scum games looks like a lazy mimic from his Town game in Newbie X, when he decided he couldn't figure out how to play Townie without being Townie, so he just does some copy & paste work from a game where he was Town. Reads are bad. Volunteers to offer more information about his reads, if anyone asks for it. People ask for information about his more controversial reads, and he fails to offer more information about some of them, while posting additional info about his read that already matched thread sentiment. Every time the dude posts, I do my best to read with an open mind, and then it just ends up being another strike against him. Some of that is still true. He still has some strange posts, and he still has some bad reads. Activity level has picked up a little, at least enough to be more in line with his Town game from Newbie X (not a very high bar to get over).
Couple of things in this game that are distinctly different from his Scum games:
1) He's more serious-minded in this game. He didn't seem to care much at all, in those Scum games. You might only get 1 or 2 posts from him the whole way that represent an actual attempt to play the game. Otherwise he's just goofing off. There are comparatively fewer goof-off posts from him here (like, percentage-wise).
2) He was more of a pacifist in his Scum games. If someone seemed to be upset with him, he tried to defuse the situation quickly, and smooth things over. (You'll see a lot of Scum doing that.) But in this game, he has sometimes used a mocking tone or mixed an insult into one of his posts.
3) He didn't seem to play Devil's Advocate so much in his Scum games (this is very minor).
There are, however, also some things in this game that are distinctly different from his Town game. Someone earlier said something about how this "looked like Town Sulf's meta" or something like that. No, it doesn't. It's not a match for his prior scum play, but it's not a match for his prior town play either.
1) Some of his posts in his Town game are so boring. I get maybe 2/3 through one of them and I want to skip to the next post, before finishing the one I'm looking at. Because the posts are bland, and he RAMBLES. There aren't boring, rambling posts in his scum games. There aren't boring, rambling posts in this game. He's rather concise in his Scum games (and in this one).
2) Just as his posts are concise in this game, they are also pretty clear. Most of the time, you don't get confused by a post from Sulfurus in this game because you can't figure out what he's saying. You only get confused by a post from Sulfurus in this game because you can't figure out WHY he's saying it. In his Town game, those boring, ramblings posts were fuzzy. People didn't always know what he meant, and they had to ask.
3) In that Town game, when people asked what he meant, he told them! He went ahead and clarified his posts, and explained himself. In this game, we know that there have been times that people didn't understand why he felt a certain way about something. And when they asked for clarification? Zippo.
So, meta analysis on Sulfurus comes back fairly close to null. Maybe slightly Scum-indicative, but not as much as it had been earlier in the game.
Post analysis is still slightly Scum-indicative, as I've outlined previously, in other comments.
Vote count analysis is still slightly Scum-indicative, as (like Ticktock pointed out so long ago) Sulfurus is in one of the 3 players (along with Rels and Breshke) who were sitting in the prime bussing slots during the Barakos lynch.
Overall: I think Sulfurus is going to remain in my Top 2 suspects, in a game where there are 2 Scum to find.

And I was not discrediting you by telling you to pay attention. I was trying to get you to pay attention by telling you to pay attention. And then you decided that I could be right about it, or that it at least wasn't worth talking about anymore at the time.

So even when I was moving my vote to Barakos, I made it clear that although I thought he was a good lynch, I still thought Rels was the best lynch. And that's not how you bus. I would not say "I'd still rather be lynching Rels than Barakos" if I know Barakos is about to flip Red. That would not help me.

Too late in relation to how much time was left in the Phase. I only made 2 more posts in that Phase after the vote, because nothing else really happened (nor was there reason to think it would).

1) Tarot crap needlessly draws attention to himself and makes people irritated with him, especially after a late entrance to the thread. WIFOM is in play here, but this is slightly Town-indicative, because it is self-detrimental for the Scum version of himself.
2) Questions the "bigs" when no one else is doing so. This again makes him conspicuous. Challenging the Town leaders will make them more likely to want to lynch him later (and boy are we seeing that from rayn) but he shows no fear of those consequences.
3) Named me as a Top Town read, and said he's "never lynching me." I'm the only player that (at that stage of the game) he could name as Top Town, and I could be sure he's right about it. I don't have any reason to think that TickTock would believe I could be "pocketed" by this type of move. So it looks legit.
4) Half of Breshke's participation in this game has been due to prodding from TickTock. This could be scum-motivated only if they are both Scum. Otherwise, Scum Ticktock has no interest in making Town Breshke participate more.
5) Soft defends Barakos, when a Scum player would be more likely to either bus him HARD (to maximize Town Cred) or defend him HARD (to maximize the chances of saving him). If he wasn't sure which direction to go, he would probably just not mention him at all. Instead, he participates in conversations about Barakos, but allows himself to be in a hazy middle on him. Scum is not going to be wishy washy about a guy he knows will flip Red, while Town sentiment is clearly against the guy.
6) Correctly identified the 3 players who are mostly likely to have bussed Barakos. I had the exact same 3 players in mind, and I'm Town, so it makes me think he's coming from a Town mindset as well.
7) When I interrogated him about how he selected those 3 names (without offering ANY hint as to what the correct answer might be) he gave the correct answer. He used the same process I did, and again, I know that process came from a Town mentality.
8) Was DumbTown on Day 2, forgetting that a Doctor and Veteran cannot co-exist, which a Scum player would know, because of the fact that they know the setup.
9) Was DumbTown MUCH worse on Day 2 when he said that if he was the Cop and had a redcheck on someone, he wouldn't reveal it. He said the person should stay hidden and get more checks. Because if they reveal themselves, they'll just get roleblocked or killed. This is RIDICULOUS, because if the Cop has a redcheck, it IS the roleblocker. And there are no more checks to get, because the other Scum player is the Godfather!
No Mafia player could ever make this mistake genuinely. And no Mafia player would know what I just wrote above, and yet tell the Town that if a Cop has a redcheck they shouldn't say so.
##Townshield: Ticktock Yeah, he was right. No question. But a few of these things like 1), 3), 5), 6), 7) are either tailored to n00bKing's perspective or kinda WIFOM. Yes, already said that 3, 6 and 7 are much stronger evidence to me than they would be to others. But again, the other six points were available to everyone. The post is not just meant to tell other people why THEY should townread Ticktock. I'm also giving a more thorough explanation of why *I* was townreading Ticktock. For the people townreading ME, my view of Ticktock through the eyes of Town n00bKing is relevant.
Call 1 "kinda WIFOM?" Okay, but like it says there, it's still slightly Town-indicative, because it isn't pure WIFOM, because it is self-detrimental if he's Scum. And 5 is even further from true WIFOM. For a Scum player, there's a fork in the road. Bus the hell out of Barakos, or defend the hell out of Barakos. He chooses...neither, really. So he was Town. You can say 2 and 4 and 8 are all WIFOM as well, but I think each one of them is slightly Town-indicative. And I think 9 is pretty heavily Town-indicative, just like 5.

If Moosy flips Godfather, there are two of the ways you can know I'm Town that disappear. But they would be replaced by two ways that you can know I'm not the roleblocker, so it would still be a wash. You are way way up the wrong tree.
