"Side with the veteran" lol. I can get lynched on D1 like anyone else.

It's just that the dead dudes knew me well enough to know I wasn't mafia from the get go.
When GB thought the exact opposite all game long in a pretty lame way.

i think he is town. have said it multiple times. believe even explained it to you before lol. i just don't see every dead player being wrong about his alignment, and then onegu killing every single person in support of him. doesn't seem like the play. plus those dead people have better reads on him than me and i trust them.

plus i have heard no case for why onegu has been ACTIVELY scummy. most of it is PoE/activity based, and by that metric the lynch should be hopeless by a mile.

really?
when he himself just argued it's less likely to hit mafia then not rng lycnhing?


it's actually equally as likely, so i disagree with your premise entirely.

it's actually really simple. i mean i guess it's pretty simple for me cuz i read like 10 of BH's games in the recent past so i could accurately impersonate him. here's your guide to reading BH:

Did he RNG immediately @ the start of the game: if yes -> 80% chance to be town; if no -> 80% chance to be mafia

Did he push the RNG target or just leave it there like a dead fish: if push -> 95% chance to be town; if dead fish - 50% chance to be mafia

Did he gather reads from people arguing with him about why they are better than RNG: yes - DING DING DING town; i don't know he hasn't given reads - 75% town; no - 50% town

rayn, was this your turning point on ritoky? They're right when saying that ritoky posted nothing between "(rayn thinks) ritoky is town" and "POE lynch list include ritoky".

Yeah as i said that was yesterday. I clearly pointed out (before going to bed) that i dislike Xatalos' & ritoky's reads on BH which i had missed earlier as i was tired. My townread on ritoky before was not based on that at all. I jsut didn't pay attention to his posts because i didn't think he was saying anything interesting. It's like how i treat players who don't say anything interesting (unless something changes)... in every game.

There is absolutely nothing contradicting there, i re-evaluated his posting after i had slept and dug up further and came to conclusion he is mafia, because:
1) His read on BH is bad.
2) His reasoning for his read doesn't even make any sense.for example; he says there is 80% chance BH does this rng thing as town, so there is actually then 20% chance of BH doing that as mafia - by default. When people tell his that "BH could totally do that as mafia" it doesn't affect his read at all. In fact he just pushes the townread further with more illogical arguments, like trying to argue random lynching is as effective as not random lynching, which is a straight out lie, and doesn't even have anything to do with BH's alignment.

So yeah, there is that. That's basically the only thing he has done in this game in addition to now bitching at me.


Then this later... Which I didn't quite follow...

well, not towards me. You're actually being a little more gentle with me, compared to normal. Normally I'd expect you to end up TRing ritoky for that on your own. Maybe it's been some time since we played together, or my edge is getting dull, but I recall you being pretty good at noticing people's motivations.

ritoky is a really had to read for me and i don't think he has said much of anything that could be in my opinion considered townie.

Maybe it's jsut like you say and other people do not know you as well as i do (and what you can / cannot do as mafia), but still... it's really hard for me to believe both of Xatalos and ritoky actually believe you are town for your actions regarding the rng lynch. I just don't fucking buy it.


nice one bro.


respond.

no


y'know, gonna be honest here. you're the most underwhelming player that people tell me is good on these forums. i just don't see it; maybe i am the one who is so bad i can't comprehend your greatness; but i don't think that's the case.

I don't talk to people who i think are mafia or will not understand me anyways.


i think i am content ignoring everything you say in every game going forward; it doesn't have much value or good reason in it anywayz.

I think if i have this convo with someone they think i am mafia, at least they should imo.

i have 1 guy in onegu who has had the tonal shift of the ages.

like why can't this be easier right now? seriously. all i want are town reads that are trying to find mafia. not all of those people can be mafia....and that isn't even considering if there's a sneakster mafia.

i am just tired and want town reads. is this too much to ask for?

boohoo... cries.... in... vain...



rayn point 1:
Reading bh's rng as town is bad:

this is a null thing, we feel certain ways about things and use logic to justify those feels, ritoky felt good about bh coming into thread with his rng, and conveyed that to the rest of us, that doesnt make him scum, its just an offense to rayns sensibilities. Also with what we know of Bh now, it was from wrong to town read / :

verdict-null

point 2
Rayn has an angry convo with ritoky, ritoky still town reads rayn, rayn thinks he should be scum read by someone if they have that sort of convo, again, sensibilities, I town read people I argue with aaaaaall the time

verdict-silly rayn

point 3

The onegu switch- onegu is never lynched day 1, bad ritoky

bh was the first to vote on onegu, someone else was there as well, there was plenty of reason to think onegu might get shenanynied and given what we know now of onegu ritoky trying to lynch him is far from something to be held against him. I almost voted switched to ritoky myself just to avoid the stupid slam lynch.

verdict- actually pretty townie.

Maybe ritoky is scum this game, but rayns silly arguments from the grave definitely dont make a good case for it / :

ok this is a fair point about active scumminess. now, although i was WRONG about yam, i did make this point earlier:

I agree with a lot of that post, BH. But honestly I would argue that our biggest threat to our ability to win is lynching mafia, not lynching people who don't play the game. Lurkers are really bad for town in this setup, but I think we have to consider if lynching a lurker is our best chance of hitting mafia. I don't think it is right now, but clearly many disagree.


Ok, I totally get what you're getting at here. there's an argument to be made, and it is a totally reasonable one, that perhaps all lurkers are town and all active players are mafia, and we should lynch into the most suspicious active players. And in a sense, I think that is not 100% wrong. For example; I think rayn needed an extension and some time to sort out his rage and unwillingness to play. But there are what, 4 lurkers here out of 11 players? It's almost certain that there's at least one mafia in the lurk group, and there are ones like Hopeless1 and Yamato who are literally playing just enough to not ge tmodkilled (remember, this game has no activity requirement). If I were scum this game, I'd just never post and it would be easy. In fact, I feel really certain at least one scum, or maybe all scum, are doing this. And why not? There's a vocal contingent of people (including the lurkers themselves) who do not want to lynch into lurkers

We have to think smarter. Normally, lurkers are handled by modkills for failure to meet posting requirements, or cops, or vigilantes, or at the very least some blues make it to LYLO and claim and we have a narrow lynch pool. We have none of those tools this game. People are abusing the ability to lurk, and sure, ti sounds like they have reasons, but there's no reason scum can't just fake reasons. As scum, I would.

We need to solve this problem ourselves. We obviously can't lynch every lurker, since doing so is the same as guessing all scum are lurkers (if 2-3 of them are town, we'll run out of lynches and lose probably first). But we can lynch the worst lurker or two, the ones we'll never get a read on, and I'm gambling on one of them being scum.

Obviously none of these guys are gonna shot if they're town. What will you do in LYLO when it's all lurkers and scum, or all lurking scum we're refusing ot lynch? We can't have that.

Gb will always LOOK worse than Yam because there's a filter to look at. He could have eaisly chosen to never post and he'd be just like Yam, protected by "well, we can't just lynch lurkers, or we'd lose". GB CHOSE TO PLAY. He chose to play the damn game, to try to solve things, even if he's super wrong and dumb, and MAKING THAT CHOICE, that's a town thing. If he's scum, he didn't have to post SHIT. He just had to let the thread implode.

He stepped up! HE STEPPED UP.

Don't punish that.


and if we're talking about scum hunting, it's worth noting that someone who literally never posts (as onegu almost does) will post fewer scummy things than a more active scum player (like GB) REGARDLESS because onegu is physically making fewer posts

Well there's the way Onegu has used both of his votes without caring about the lynch result (especially concerning since rayn/Slam were both town, so scum wouldn't care anyway) - first voting rayn D1 (his highest townread), then wasting his vote D2. He just doesn't care who gets lynched (as long as it's town), completely unconcerned about scumhunting. Also the way he said "marv is really useless because he's pushing Slam" like he knew Slam was town despite nullreading Slam himself, among other things..

i'm pretty sure we're just arguing about which of two scum to lynch first so i can't really bring myself to care about this argument, but ritoky I will reread onegu since you insist, and if I were in your position I'd want "sure" people to reread the stuff about the guy I'm TRing.

##unvote

##vote onegu

we need to lynch onegu today, I think ritoky is town but if hes insistent on 1gu bieng town and xata bieng scum and pixies bieng real then we might very lose someone sensible tonight and have trouble killing onegu in the future. Thats not even considering gb flips town T_T in which case ritoky might somehow use that as fuel for his silly reads.

Hopeless, if your here vote 1gu, he should be clear scum from your pov.

stray voting is a 50/50 game tbh. that's a coinflip argument at best. also idk what you're talking about not looking for scum. outside of this phase (where i believe all of 1gu's friends are dead in) he has done more scum hunting than i have ever seen in a game lol. so uhhhh....you're wrong. slam comment is interesting point, but maybe he just has a god read on slam like me.

you should care, if gb flips town for some dumb reason, then you me or xata die, well have 3 scum plus ritoky vs 3 town and onegu might not get lynched till lylo or something equally disturbing.

I don't understand the reads on ritoky. He literally said:
"BH is town until he does something egregious enough to be considered not town."
"generally speaking he doesn't rng as mafia, but i wouldn't put it past him to break meta."

So what? He townreads Blazinghand for something he then says, in the next post, is not a reason to townread Blazinghand`!!?

well, not towards me. You're actually being a little more gentle with me, compared to normal. Normally I'd expect you to end up TRing ritoky for that on your own. Maybe it's been some time since we played together, or my edge is getting dull, but I recall you being pretty good at noticing people's motivations.

ritoky is a really had to read for me and i don't think he has said much of anything that could be in my opinion considered townie.

Maybe it's jsut like you say and other people do not know you as well as i do (and what you can / cannot do as mafia), but still... it's really hard for me to believe both of Xatalos and ritoky actually believe you are town for your actions regarding the rng lynch. I just don't fucking buy it.


nice one bro.


respond.

no


y'know, gonna be honest here. you're the most underwhelming player that people tell me is good on these forums. i just don't see it; maybe i am the one who is so bad i can't comprehend your greatness; but i don't think that's the case.

I don't talk to people who i think are mafia or will not understand me anyways.


i think i am content ignoring everything you say in every game going forward; it doesn't have much value or good reason in it anywayz.

I think if i have this convo with someone they think i am mafia, at least they should imo.

xata is right about this. slam was the least chupazi he has been in recent games. he was in fact significantly more serious than normal resulting in an around a 50% serious post rate which is astounding for him. as desperate as i am to try and ignore everything rayn posts, when he posts for 3 straight pages....anywayz his reaction is overblown and worthless.

at least my meta read on slam is still perfect

honestly i am tired and whiny and i just wish this game were easier.

i have 1 guy in xata who is either playing 5 steps ahead or in a tunnel potentially filled of rage.
i have 1 guy in yamato who is constantly handing out empty promises.
i have 1 guy in hopeless who might have died irl.
i have 1 guy in rayn who ragequit lyfe, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
i have 1 guy in GB who has never once been so disenfranchised with a mafia game.
i have 1 guy in onegu who has had the tonal shift of the ages.

like why can't this be easier right now? seriously. all i want are town reads that are trying to find mafia. not all of those people can be mafia....and that isn't even considering if there's a sneakster mafia.

i am just tired and want town reads. is this too much to ask for?

boohoo... cries.... in... vain...



rayn point 1:
Reading bh's rng as town is bad:

this is a null thing, we feel certain ways about things and use logic to justify those feels, ritoky felt good about bh coming into thread with his rng, and conveyed that to the rest of us, that doesnt make him scum, its just an offense to rayns sensibilities. Also with what we know of Bh now, it was from wrong to town read / :

verdict-null

point 2
Rayn has an angry convo with ritoky, ritoky still town reads rayn, rayn thinks he should be scum read by someone if they have that sort of convo, again, sensibilities, I town read people I argue with aaaaaall the time

verdict-silly rayn

point 3

The onegu switch- onegu is never lynched day 1, bad ritoky

bh was the first to vote on onegu, someone else was there as well, there was plenty of reason to think onegu might get shenanynied and given what we know now of onegu ritoky trying to lynch him is far from something to be held against him. I almost voted switched to ritoky myself just to avoid the stupid slam lynch.

verdict- actually pretty townie.

Maybe ritoky is scum this game, but rayns silly arguments from the grave definitely dont make a good case for it / :


Yeah I didn't really get the latter case either...

The first one might have some merit though. At the time I disagreed with rayn, but maybe there's something to it after all... The way how ritoky was so extremely sure that BH was town, even though he said there was like at least a 20% chance that he could have done the RNG thing as scum.

In any case, this is surely a topic for another day.

you should care, if gb flips town for some dumb reason, then you me or xata die, well have 3 scum plus ritoky vs 3 town and onegu might not get lynched till lylo or something equally disturbing.


if gb flips town you're also wrong. consider that.

and if gb flips mafia, i am going hard on 1 of you, xata, and vivax and never stopping.

But overall I think rayn's case on ritoky is rather weak. It's just mostly PoE for me. I'll never believe gumshoe is scum, and BH has been looking pretty good all game IMO. Chromatically has also looked decent enough, same goes for Vivax. So what's left is GB/Onegu/hopeless/ritoky.

Tbh rayn was only pushing me "out of spite" towards the end I doubt ritoky has any anger towards me.
