That value is equivalent to that of a hat. Atm voting for someone is the equivalent of storing your hat on a rack. Basically for the first day we all have awesome racks but shitty hats. As the game goes on, our racks will deteriorate, the wood changing from fine oak to base mahogany, but our hats shall grow in splendor. Soon they will be both outlandish and dignified. Not just one flavor, but two in conjunction. Chocolate and Vannila in perfect harmony. Vivax would you consider yourself a prickly dude? | ||

Theres no point to him trying to convince us to follow his lynch. RNG is viable when reads are shit, convincing town to rng lynch requires shit reads. The game has just begun therefore reads have not had the time to develop quality, which means bh does not yet posses his convince condition. In the absence of the means to convince us to choose his method, all he can do is argue how his is truly random. Because a mafia player who argues for an actual rng lynch is forfeiting his ability to protect his teammates (and potentially himself) from rng. A competent scumer would usually have faith in his ability to sway town one way or another, which means he probably wouldn't risk an rng team kill. Basically there are only 3 kinds of players who would propose this strat. 1) a player who is so insecure about his play, he is honestly proposing to just roll the dice instead of play(at least on day 1). This player could be town or scum. 2) A town player who is just using this as a means to prove his innocence "why would I risk killing myself or my teamies as mafia? I must be town!" this works sorta because your odds are quite low of hitting yourself and if you do then you can always say "well I know I'm town, so I'll just disregard this result" -_- 3) A scummer who believes that town will not actually rng lynch because it is objectively a bad strat compared to a really solid case/read. He must hope for this, because to a scummer the rng lynch can actually just backfire, since mafia as an entity operate on a clear pool of lives as opposed to towns mist of health. we can probally straight up rule out the first possibility (bh be goods not scrubs), which leaves 2 and 3. This whole thing seems pre written so hard to tell between them. Honestly best just to ignore the whole thing unless it gets to the point where our reads are so junk an rng lynch is actually more likely. ether way, I dont think bh expects us to actually straight up rng lynch, this was probably just a way to look active early on without actually offering substance (though it might draw substance out of others, which is always good) | ||

I'd say I use it more often than not nowadays when I play. When the game started, I was like "you know what would be great here? Given the setup and the player list, this is perfect for RNG" and then I did it. "pre written" --> I copied/pasted it from the last time I used RNG, then filled in the names and list size from this game. The second RNG post where I announced the result, I also copied/pasted, so in a sense, yes, this was prewritten "when did you think of random tl tag info?" --> I first thought of this idea in September of 2013, and I used it for the first time in November 2013. Since then I've used it probably 5-10 times in games here on TL. "would you have done this if you were mafia?" --> the answer to this question is always "yes". I'm willing to lie, cheat, steal, doctor photographs, put items in boxes, fake plane tickets, pretend to have depression, a death in the family, etc, whatever it takes to win regardless of alignment. I'm one of the few players that does not pull punches as mafia. So yes, as mafia, I'd be fully willing to RNG if I percieved it to be a good idea (which it isn't; I've outlined why RNG is pro-town this game) oks : D thanks for answers. | ||

I think bh's argument for random makes sense coming out of scum only if you except town not to listen(or you can sabotage the rng) and makes sense out of town only if your trying to look substancey and dont actually think it'll come to a random lynch. So I dont think BH honestly wants an rng lynch / : cause that would be silly, even in a game with good scum. What does that say for his alignment? Not much at all. Basically at the time I didnt think bhs actions meant he was townie, just that he was being active and probably insincere. I might be totally wrong about but such is the risks of early reads. But yeah, rng is silly, case in point your on the chopping block right now for no reason. Do you think your scum? Do you think BH is derp? if no to both this statements then mine has at least as much chance to be true as there is to lynch into you and hit maf. | ||

Rayns a big meanie, nothings changed. Plus I think BH doesnt actually think theres gonna be an rng lynch, his post is just a way to look daring plus active as ethier alignment. I wasnt a fan of him becoming entrenched as town based of something pretty neutral, the reason I posted was because I felt it wasnt obvius that his rng theory was neutral. Rng play is a risky one for scum, but if you assume town wont go for it and are just feigning the play to build filter, then it's totally neutral. | ||

Remember that time you tunneled me until I swore on my life? Then got drunk and imploded?

Generally hes to the point, and decicive. Reads to me as confident town. Chrom- dont like how he went after ritoky when ritoky was just rolling perception plus charisma. I wasn't being particularly townie at the time yet he seemed confident that ritoky was needlessly pouncing / : could be insider knowledge? Also his start is kinda awkward. Reading as scummy. Still leaving my vote on vivax though, because he has the superior rack, | ||

He probally keyed into my own nervousness because of his own good state of play. That doesn't proportionately make chrom scummier but his weird xata exchange comes off as shallow and pointless. That in conjunction with his pounce on rit are making his rack more attractive by the second. | ||

Personally I feel as if he dedicates alot of talk to the rng thing without actually looking into what it meant about Bh. Burning filter basically. I also get the feeling that hes using my lurky history as a way to waffle on me, thereby positioning himself to go ether way depending on town. Dunno. I really don't know how gumshoe should be read. You know? I remember him being a really inactive/bad town once and he was basically policy lynched. Then he was extremely similar as scum and managed to survive like that (I even defended him because of him being similar as town earlier lol). Here he's surprisingly actually posting stuff... Or has he started generally posting lately? Hm... I've only ever seen him being semi-permanently AFK. Well so far Blazinghand and Vivax feel town. ritoky too? Not as sure about Chromatically yet. yamato and gumshoe are in the gray area. Of course, rayn = scum. Hm so you think gumshoe is lightly town? I guess his attempt at playing so far has been decent compared to my past experiences with him...... Tbh I think any of yamato/gumshoe/Chromatically could be scum atm. None of them feel strongly that way though. And how would you characterize his meta? My experience has been basically "scummy lurker as either alignment". Would also like to know why you put ritoky as town as especially marv. He eventually seems to settle on me bieng town, but by then I think the general sentiment was favoring me? if that makes sense / : he just seems very wishy washy, which we all are somewhat at the start of course, but his posting comes off as very repetitive and pointless. He talks about the rng vote, but doesn't infer any reads from it, he jokes alot about the rain vote but again doesn't derive anything from it. Hes just commenting on stuff that means nothing, and cautiously testing the waters with his uncertain reads. would also explain his weird early interaction with chrom, someone hes kinda pushing but not really. I'm open to bieng wrong this game, Xata may very well just be perplexed by my bieng really active, but for now I'm reading him as red / : I go bed now. good night : D | ||

Xata- as said before, looks like hes posting alot but isnt actually saying much of substance, worse yet he talked alot about stuff that didnt really matter at all (simulating a true rng lynch, trolling rayn, how he waffles days one me) but yeah he hasnt come back yet so probs need to hear more. Hopeless- definition of worthless, but I'm not sure if mafia would actually be comfortable joining an active thread to contribute naught but dank memes. onegu- "So I am debating on if I want to try this game or just troll..." as a player who has been absolutely shit and lazy as both mafia and town I'm well aware of the terrible impact such a player can have on a game. If they are not lynched quickly they become a huge distraction that cant particularly be read into cause they're shit and lazy. Mafia players can and have used the whole "hes so bad, there's no way hes mafia" meta plenty so if Onegu insists on being scummy then we should oblige him provided there isn't a better alternative. People I'm mixed on Bh: His original Rng post set me off a bit, but without writing another wot I'll just say that I liked the answers he gave to the questions I asked. If necessary I'll elaborate but for now lets just say his response felt very honest and off the cuff. His defense of Yam could be scummy, if Yam is town Bh might just be setting up for his flip in a very non committal way(asking for time as opposed to outright defending him), but trying to clear space for a townie so that they can talk freely doesnt strike me as bads, unless he thinks yamato plays worse when hes not under pressure / : they could be scumm bros but that would be a bit obvious no? Chrom: Liked his posts on Ritoky though I still think hes totally wrong. town players have often found that kind of thing (tells early game) scummy, it's happened to me several times before. Reads early game are rarely things of beauty for our hats are often quite puny. An aggressive read like that can also backfire huge, concrete accusations are a great way for mafia to get unnecessary spotlight thrown onto them. So yeah, methinks chroms wrong but not scum. Though he may just be throwing together a convincing tunnel on a fairly inactive player. The thing where Chrom went back and drew a connection with the picture feels very townie to me though, reminds me of my own happy tunnels, but I doubt the picture actually means much (would be a tad obvious if it did) Glowing bear- not sure about him, Vivax seems like a weird target for mafia to push but they might not have a really good selection of schlubs to frame. Fun note, Bh, chrom and GB all clearing room for Yamato when he hasn't done much at all? Coincidence? Mabs, mabs not. Not much else to report, Marv probs town? Someone said(bh I thunk) he'd be pretty shit if hes maf and he doesn't seems shitty so hurrah I suppose. | ||

Cause he grilled you a fair amount, and despite that, all you said about him was: In response to all the grilling, etc. So what's the deal gumshoe? Rayn attacks you and you mostly just call him mean, you don't comment on anything he has to say, any of his reads (other than directly related to your statements) and on your list post, he doesn't show up, not even as mixed. You commented on the nature of the rng lynch on rayn (saying it was daring, etc) but you didn't actually comment about rayn himself. Are you avoiding talking about rayn? Let's hear a stance from you on this. I commented just now on Rayn, but if you want a follow up, Rayn is consistently aggressive towards me as town or scum, but he backed off which is usually what town rayn does when I say the magic words hes looking for. The one time he was scum he just kept going after me till I dead / : but I dont claim to be able to read him very well. Hes aggressive as town, and ever so slightly more aggressive as scum. Time should tell what he actually is / : so for now I'm dumping him the yamato camp of -give it a day out in the sun. Btw I cant tell if your actually for reals about Rayn or just pushing the RNG XD guess its both? | ||

It might not be as deserved as the townread on Vivax (on objective merits of meta etc.), I just felt (and actually still feel) that his level of effort and activity seemed more likely to come from town. The way he engaged people and seemed to have really thought about his own ideas... It didn't feel at all like a fake push trying to gather credibility. What's more, I skimmed through all the links ritoky provided and it was a common trend that BH pushed the idea of RNG lynching as town but didn't do that as scum. I think it's a minor meta point in BH's favor, even if it's not like it's impossible to fake something like that... I just didn't get the feeling it was fake. Well, did you? For the time being, I'm happy to put BH in the pile of non-lynchables. Oh for sure, I literally am a waffle Xatalos. I refuse to just red list someone off mah gut. My thought process has arguments for and against. It is double sided by necessity but I do come down on everyone I look at in one light or another.

Xata- I dont feel hes done little enough good or plenty enough wrong to warrant a lynch today. I could elaborate but meh. I still feel pretty good about chrom and Ritoky(less so about ritoky, but in his defense rayn is kind of a black hole that absorbs all your attention at times) so atm I wouldn't vote them today. Until someone can magically explain why Onegu and Hopeless deserve the benefit of the doubt, my vote will probally fall on them. Over all I'm reluctant to lynch Rayn for my prior meta read, but also because in a game without blues, actives might just get shot outright so doesnt make much sense killing someone who has a chance to bite a bullet. My risque lynch would be yamato. I didn't like this part of his gb post marv fell off this for basically no reason, I would have pushed him more this post isnt calling marv scummy, its saying that he was doing the right thing, then stopped doing it. Feels like hes trying to direct marv back onto JB, which feels quite bad to me. also this I disagree on your assessment of GB. I think he ass-pulled his explanation of his scumread of Vivax. I think mafia GB randomly decided to scumread someone and fabricated the reason over multiple posts. This just feels REALLY confident, like he knows for a fact jb is full of shit, while I and several others are fairly on the fence about him. Imagine a mafia yamato for a moment, hes watching this scrub being totally wrong about Vivax(and he would know for a fact that jb is wrong, cause colour red), he sees marv pressuring him and then suddenly stahping and then finally, he sees his chance. From his perspective Gb is the perfect mark, no? Ethier way I feel theres something going on here. I dont think lynching into one of these two is a bad idea, but between them I am sort of willing to give gb the benefit of the doubt for the sake of pants on head. People I need to read more into -Bh(has seemed rather useless as of late) Slam, been letting him off cause Slam, but thats not a good reason to neglect his filter T_T small as it may be. | ||

I like all his reads and the way he is making them. the first bit of this post - no actually yamato was bang on, and it should make you townread him for it, not mafiaread him. The fact, when he mentioned it and I responded, that I conceded he was right should also bring you to that conclusion. why doesn't it? essentially (as i already explained somewhere) i had a bit of a brain fart and i wasn't evaluating vivax's town/mafia play properly in my head, so what yamato said about dropping off it too easily was bang on, because if i was using full/correct information, i would have kept on it more. It makes yamato look good because he's suggesting the direction that play should have taken, and he was actually right about it. And i can say that because it was my thought process. Because it feels too Bang on. like his assessment about Gbs shitposting feels definitive. The way he phrases it is actually perfect and makes total sense. That said, Gb making shit up as he goes along doesnt and bieng totes wrong doesnt make him mafia( I know this for a fact). Yamato is just right and succint, which is something mafia are very good at cause they know everything / : Also, his redirecting you onto Jb is scummy to me because hes not actually investigating you, the tone of his posts suggests he knows your town and were doing the "right" thing and just stopped for some reason. Problem is, I think he doesnt seem to really care what that reason is, only that you stopped going onto Gb.The only point in him calling you out was to regain momentum onto jb. Which feels like an agenda as opposed to honest scum hunting. Basically, between the guy who feels too right and is trying to redirect the most townie player, and the dude whose stumbling drunkley, my own bias compels me to suspect the former / : | ||

Rayn seems pretty amped up, I feel like he started the game angry and just gets angrier as the game goes on, but the rage hasnt been too focused. Rayn is perfectly capable of tunneling one person forever and coming up with all manner of bullshit on them, but he really has been all over the place, which would suggest he is actually trying to figure stuff out in his own way. Or hes just flailing, trying to get whatever lynch to go down. As for slam, def some wierd stuff cropping up here and there. GB hard defense of Yamato making me wonder. in context with mah yamato case, this is a bit sketch, if Slam pushed to get gb lynched based off association with yam, and gb was town, his flip would in no way impact yamato. It's a small thing / : for sure. Mostly I dont want rayn to be scum, because then Bh will be right and well never hear the end of it. But I'm not sure slam is scum either.

I have literally seen good players go into thier mafia qt and do the following "so I'm gonna lurk till my lynch day, then i'll show up and say I was indisposed, no one will lynch me cause that would look too bad out of maf" AND WE DIDN'T FUCKIN LYNCH HIM. Between slam and Rayn, I wanna lynch neither. Unless my vote is absolutely required I wont be voting for them / : I dont read chrom as particularly bad anymore their but I will go over his filter once more before dead line to be sure. | ||

I don't necessarily disagree that GB looks better but I'm rather hesitant to sleep on the idea of lynching him entirely. Rayn is just not mafia here I don't think. Unless he is mafia with marv and they both successfully pocketed me. I doubt this though, because literally everyone thinks I am town now so lol. I don't really want to lynch Onegu but I admittedly haven't read his probably short filter either. so who do you want to lynch? | ||

Hrmmm guess that is alot more than his last few games. I think gumshoe is falling into the onegu rule. Rayn is like 90% of his town meta. Yamato did some stuff looked townie. GB rolled my RnG. Havent seen BH again since the start. IIRC he had some reads other than his RnG lynch. Townish I think. Hopeless said he was going to lynch me for being useless I told him good luck, he didnt bite at the bait. Not looking good. IE rels in rayns game. I have forever given up on attempting to read slam. Would lynch or wouldnt lynch. Not really top priority. Xata many reads, big filter. he is like 99% town. Rayn my friend you should get off of this one. UMMM... Who else.... Oh chrome completely forgettable. Scum read. Vivax will trust yamato's read on him for now. Ummm..... No more Mabs or Town! since my rant post it must have worked. Damn I am good at this game. You all call me useless but then you all know my reads are normally right on. Unless they are completely wrong. It is never a mix of right and wrong. And I am more right than wrong.

Yes, he's wrong, and yes, he should remember what I'm willing to do, but he sitll went and did actual research when has scum it would have been totally unnecessary, right?

Chrom feels pretty active/emotional, dont wanna lynch him. Rayn strikes me as sincere but misguided, exactly how I would imagine a townie. We have expectations of veteran players, but truth is bieng right from the get go in a game of mafia can be more about luck than anything else. So no, I wont vote him today. Slam is playing too sensible, dont wanna discourage this by killing him. gb is town, unless hes scum with slam his reactions plus the way he protected him take him totally off my list. I kind of need yam to answer mah questions before I can say anything else. Today I'd be willing to lynch Ritoky, who has totally disappeared and needs to be on more peoples radar. 20 hours as of right now since he last posted. Hopeless is also a target, but everyone seems to magically think hes town so I guess he gets a pass. | ||

"*giggles* we're gonna lose so hilariously hard, it'll be great." Then, night 1: "##concede nothing left for me here" and he had a crappy like 2 page filter http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/494452-student-mafia-xv?user=marvellosity&view=all the difference is palpable. In any case, I'm beating a dead horse here so I'll leave it aloen but anyone voting marv is not paying attention to the obvious evidence here. xat was a scum read of mine early on, but his sheer level of activity detterd me from pursuing so didnt waste mah time there. Onegu and hopeless had >2 page filters and most of thier commentary was fairly banal jokey and worthless. Felt this went without saying. Chrom and ritoky were entangled together, I found ritoky townie from his initital pounce on to me (though my opinion has changed since) chrom also just came off over time as really active and sincere so I revoked mah earlier scum read on him. I generally tend to not go too much into mah town reads cause they dont interest me, and there wasnt much to say on onegu and hopeless, the mix made for a shallow one. As for Slam, gonna be honest, me finding him townie is more an asociation thing. Basically people I dont like are calling him out for very little reason. That and his death match with Rayn feels dumb and townie. | ||

"Too correct" about GB's meta or shitposting isn't actually a reason to mafiaread someone. Like... you're literally saying, and I quote "Yamato is just right and succinct"... so he is mafia. You're calling hm mafia for having good reads. How do you get to this place, mentally? How does that happen, where someone comes in (and I'm not saying I think Yam's reads are good here-- but you clearly think so) and says "wow, this guy makes a lot of sense!.... CLEARLY HE IS SCUM HUE HUEH UEUEHUEHUEHUE" like how does that happen, what happened to you? In a perfect game, mafia would never fuck up, and use their superior knowledge to secure a lynch. They would find situations in which they are 'right' result in a mislynch and that pose the least blow back twoards them. A scenario in which vivax and gb are at each others throats and gb is flat out wrong is an example of such a scenario. I came away from gb seeing him as a derpy townie but could see the potential to set him up as a bullshitting mafia player. The way yamato did exactly that gave me chills. Is that really so fucking outlandish? That a player whose good at this game could use mafia omniscience to set up a derpy townie? As I said as well, I didnt like how yam sort of directed marv onto gb, gave me a slimy feeling. I'm also stunned that Yamato has marv level cred from everyone for literally a 10th of the effort. They guy wont even answer my questions on his random unexplained reads. But of course Yamato is town right? Tl mafia circle jerk meta says so, guess it must be true! | ||

And lets say there were last second switch onto me. Why is ritoky going to look terrible. Everyone knows voting analysis is terrible day one. And once I flip town what are you dumbasses going to do? You arent going to lynch ritoky you are going to be like everyone is terrible and we should have lynched slam yesterday we are going to lynch him today. Ritoky is scott free. Every point here is bad. What looks worse is you giving me a town read but then saying you would vote me but then not. Ritoky also voting because someone says so then once the mislynch is secured he moves onto another townie because it makes him not on a town play during the flip. Gumshoe pointing this out and trying to make him look better bothers me alot. Blazinghand gets the same thing as Ritoky. Why try to shennanie on me. Because BH knows if there is shennanies from a player like slam onto another town player means that slam is the focus for most of day 2. It is a win win. Out of the 2 though I would say ritoky is the more suspicious of the 2. And would lynch him first. There are a few more things I want to look into. I really dont get xata's attacks of rayn and Marv. Like are his reads just that shit. Like most of my body wants to believe that. I dont see a way Rayn is scum here. I just dont. The way he reacted to me. The way his reads are changing. His reaction to Slam being town and being lynched. This all comes from town rayn. I am 99% giving my soul read on him. Could also lynch hopeless here. Like I baited him and he did nothing about it and just went after easy lynches even after threatening me. His reads seem to just go along with thread sentiment. Everyone else is fairly null to me. I need to look at a few more things. Really need to take a new look at Yamato. Really had a town feeling yesterday but meh. use your brain plox, slam has a enough of wagon to get lynched. Ritoky jumps on a last second train to avoid the slam lynch. You flip town, Ritoky looks like he was bieng super oportunistic scum saving a player enough people considered scummy to lynch, he flips scum????? he kills his buddy for no reason? Ritoky coulda just afked through the lynch which was already set up for scum. The only reason to get tangled up in a last second vote switch in that postion is to try and lynch actual scum. Only way it wasnt is if Ritoky is certain the lynch will fail, which again, is retardedly risky. Ritoky is town 0_0 if you dont see it your dumbs. | ||

Like, that's the thing we have to consider above all. If Rayn is actual scum, then hes not even mad one bit. Hes happy in fact. I've seen Rayn easily get back on his feet as scum after a post mislynch (I was the mislynch) hes good enough a player that he doesn't have to explode into uselessness. compare this post right after my mislynch- Thank you Sentinel for listening to me on thrawn (or good job or whatever your reasoning was ^^). Apologies guys for D1 lynch, i was really bad and that was bad from me. I'll shut up for some time so people can actually talk and we don't end up with a clusterfuck like D1 lynch. I was roleblocked. to the shitstorm that we had after the slam lynch. In that same scum game, he would go on to post reasonable shit like this soon after. so this is what yamato is suggesting. There are three blue claims. Me, Mr.SexyCake, and Sentinel can't all be mafia, so there are 2 scenarios he is considering: 1) Mr.CC and Sentinel are both fake-claiming and i am telling the truth. This can't possibly be true because that would mean there would be another blue claim and they would have shot their own scumbuddy. Town mislynched on D1 so instead of trying to mislynch on D2 they are giving town a mislynch by shooting their scumbuddy and instantly losing the game if someone claims blue on D2 (if someone claims we lynch one of Sent/CC or the blue claim - if the blue claim turns up blue, scum lose). This is ridiculosu to even consider. 2) I decided to fakeclaim parity cop 1h into the game instead of just not claiming. This makes no sense given that yamato knows how confident i am at my scumplay. Let's entertain a scenario that i did something very stupid (which i would never do) as mafia. The only reason i would do that as mafia is to assume there is no parity cop in the game - because one-one trade is ridiculous in a game where i can just mislynch 2 townies and win the game. There is no counter-claim. I have gained the town credit i was looking for. Good. What's my next move. I decide to buss my teammate thrawn by asking a vigilante to shoot him on N1. I already know there is no parity cop in the game because noone counter-claimed me, so the reasonable assumption is that there is a vigilante in the game. So i made a stupid and a risky claim that could end up in a 1-1 trade, when it worked, i make a stupid move that risks my scumbuddy being shot or lynched on D2 for town-credit i have already gained from my fake claim. In addition to all this stupidness thrawn, my scumbuddy, does not give me the town credit from my fake claim (which was the point of my scumteam in the first place) but instead attacks me and we go 1vs1 with him ensuring we pretty much tunnel each other on D2 - that will most likely end up in one of us getting lynched. So me, raynpelikoneet, did this as mafia, instead of... just lynching townies and playing scum as i normally do, by controlling the thread. Ridiculous. Based purely on yamato even considering something this stupid he is mafia, 100%. As opposed to spending all his time flaming Xatalos. Ignoring the fact that town Rayn has been known to implode on a regular game basis (I'm not super sure he doesn't do this as scum, the above post was only to demonstrate how level headed he could act as mafia) all the shitty inconsistencies hes making, such as how slam is a troll when really slam was super reasonable, are contradictions he doesn't need to fucking make if hes scum and level headed, after my lynch he doesnt go all "FAAAAK GUMSHOE YOU SCRUUUUB" he just moves onto the next point in his agenda. The only reason one would go off the handle and say all this stupid shit that is likely to get them lynched, is if they are emotional and why the fuck would a scum rayn be emotional? He won, he got his way, theres no need for the stupidity hes showcasing. So whats more likely, that a scum Rayn would further antagonize a town already super biased against him post a mislynch he was responsible for, then bother the bloody host, thereby risking things for his team as well himself AND THEN fucking shoot his number one support(marv) when he couldve just shot xata and been like "of course scum shot xata, they are trying to fucking frame MEEEE FUCK SHIT FUCK TROLOLOLOLOLOLOLS!!!!!!!!!" Or that Rayn is just super shit this game and is throwing a temper tantrum as Rayn tends to do? It is super super easy to lynch a townie on the principle of their behavior, it is also a fantastic way to lose. Please townies, use dem heads. Would a happy scum Rayn (a player that you all think is pretty great at this game,( but I honestly feel is far too shit more often than not to justify his occasionally fantasitic scum hunting) forfiet all thread control in some kind of mad meta gambit? Nop, he would probs not. So lets all do ourselves a favour and not collectively pull a Rayn -_- Hopeless has been truly worthless, Yamato has been next to worthless, we have 3 more mislynches left. How about we spend a day lynching a lurker? See how that works out pwease. | ||

Scum Rayn was in a fantastic position, he had Marv at his back, he couldve shot xata and taken the win out of the Rayn train, and just used meta as a reason for why Xata got shot and then he coulda just hustled like he tends to do as scum. At the very least a scum Rayn could've entirely prevented the possibility of a day 2 lynch of on himself. Town Rayn just sees us as either stupid, or trolls. He has no desire to help us and at this point he wants to get mislynched because it will prove his point. I think for now it would be best to treat him as a jester, if a lynch on yamato or hopeless fails, then we can return to this retardation. But till then, show some respect/disgust for Rayn and leave the true troll alone to sulk under his brige. | ||

I hate you, I hate and your town and I hate and I hope you get shot. But we really should work together, personally I think Xata is someone to look at late late once weve exhausted all other options. Going by the night 1 (marv/active townie) trend he might actually be shot in the next two days. Basic rule of thumb, dont lynch someone who who seems likely to get shot before the game ends. Atm we have 8 townies and 3 scum. Which means we have 3 mislynches left till, which also means there going to be two more shots provided hit scum. Bh and xata are two people I could see dying via shot, in Xata's case if only to kill thread activity and throw shade on Rayn. Even if they are both scum, that still leaves a third member who we can lynch, so there's no reason to kill them till we have to. If scum directly avoid killing them by shooting players like me or you who aren't totally as clear, we can probally just call that a win for town without diving into wifom wifom wifom as you say. | ||

As for Gb, he town. think it's too early to lynch slam This should probally tell you that Gb is totes town. The lynch momentum is falling off him, and what does he do? "Hey that guy whose supposed to die instead of me? Maybs lets him live." Even if there scum buddies it makes no sense. This is all I need to prove it, my argument was true then and is truer now. Gb was literally in the sites of Rayn Marv Yamato ect. The heat was completely on him, then it switches to Slam and what does he do? Protects a townie whose acting as a shield for him. He didn't even need to attack slam, all he had to do was not talk / : or go off on someone else. Gb also doesnt strike me as someone with an agenda, hes hot headed and walks into the flame as a result. Def not my first choice for scum. | ||

This post is literally never going to convince anyone not to vote Slam. Like... as mafia he's 100% safe making this post because it will have 0 effect on whether people vote Slam or not. He says that Slam is town again later closer to lynch, but at that point there were 0 votes on GB and 4 on Slam, so GB isn't even a lynch target at all. You assume Gb is bieng totally level headed / : as a scum player, I personally feel tremendous fear to do things that directly contribute to my death or the death of my teamates. We can deduce that Gb was emotional, which is not impossible to be as scum (especially when your actually in a losing position, as opposed to where Rayn was) off his outburst in thread. When the Slam wagon switched, unless Gb is a tremedous actor immense releif would have rolled over him. To then have right away have the peace of mind to recognize your own powerlessness and do something that directly hurts your cause is something I do not think scum Gb could accomplish on his own, given his mental state, and I doubt he would be coached to do by his team. That and I read him as a fuck up townie, not a desperate scummer / : but thats more a feel thing that comes from lots of games of bieng a fuck up townie than anything else, so its harder to elaborate on. | ||

Yamato has only two pages of filter, we are rapidly reaching what could be the midway point of the game and I think it's not unfair to say that as of yet he has not contributed in any meaningful way. Beyond that, he has committed several grave sins in his short span of posts. My argument against him will center around these sins : P This post will talk about the first sin. Sin 1: The sin of vague self affirming reads(and a dash of Hypocrisy as a bonus). Yamato generally has made super vague shallow reads this game, but one could write that off as just his post style, so I'm going to focus on the most suiting event to avoid wasting yalls time : P Early on in the game, Yamato passively gave off a scum read on Slam, if you missed it I dont blame you cause it was super vauge and pretty hard to pin down. Slam I don't really agree on. (in response to somebody town reading Slam)we get confirmation on this soon after, Ritoky, slam, bh, onegu all likely mafia? I disagree on at least one We can assume based off how Yamato hinted at his displeasure with Slam earlier, that Slam was not the one person he would take off this scum list / : from these two quotes, we can reliably piece together what was and is an extremely vague scum read. One that he never actually provides reasons his own reasons for.He says this as well I disagree on ritoky and I don't have a solid read on any of BH, slam, or Onegu which means at some point his Slam read was downgraded from not town to fuzzy? Again there's nothing to hint at the thought process behind this fluctuation.Later on, once the wagon started up on Slam Yamato chimed in slam not a terrible lynch given his insistence on being "unreadable" I think as town he becomes indignant and actually mad if people try to lynch him, this seems more like a mafia tactic. Issue is, this isnt his read, it's basically Marv's that was made several hours before. like the post I quoted from Slam up there - I'd like to be corrected if I'm wrong, but it doesn't feel at all how town Slam reacts to someone like rayn voting for him? Yamato puts his own spin on it, but the sentiment of "this isn't how Slam reacts to pressure" is identical. He doesnt ever offer up his own reasons for why Slam is scum, which is strange because as we established he all but scum read Slam at the start. So naturally, seeing this wierd gap of reasoning I asked him what was going on. This was his reply. you bore me what do you think about them? going back now and explaining why I thought those things at that time is pointless not much has changed Not much has changed confirms he did find slam scummy at the start, but has no reasons for it but what Marv provided? Also this is the only time this game that somone has actually refused to answer a question 0_0 doesnt that bother you people? compare this to my talk with bh at the start.(its long, you can just take my word for it but if you want it's here) + Show Spoiler + Bh, question, if your town please be honest : D were you planning this from the get go? Did you have your post pre written? When did you conceive the idea to use the random tl tag info? Would you have done this if you were mafia? if this was all pre thought up (which it seems to me it was) than it might not be any better than a glorified "hi, im town." not that this at all detracts from your argument for rng(which has it's convincing points but I still feel is a last resort) it's the possibility of you using this opening banter as an aegis that worries mah / : + Show Spoiler + "From the get go" --> I wasn't particularly thinking of using RNG, but it's one of my most useful tools for hunting and lynching scum. I'd say I use it more often than not nowadays when I play. When the game started, I was like "you know what would be great here? Given the setup and the player list, this is perfect for RNG" and then I did it. "pre written" --> I copied/pasted it from the last time I used RNG, then filled in the names and list size from this game. The second RNG post where I announced the result, I also copied/pasted, so in a sense, yes, this was prewritten "when did you think of random tl tag info?" --> I first thought of this idea in September of 2013, and I used it for the first time in November 2013. Since then I've used it probably 5-10 times in games here on TL. "would you have done this if you were mafia?" --> the answer to this question is always "yes". I'm willing to lie, cheat, steal, doctor photographs, put items in boxes, fake plane tickets, pretend to have depression, a death in the family, etc, whatever it takes to win regardless of alignment. I'm one of the few players that does not pull punches as mafia. So yes, as mafia, I'd be fully willing to RNG if I percieved it to be a good idea (which it isn't; I've outlined why RNG is pro-town this game) Yamato may be lazy, but when one townie asks another townie questions, the above is the usual result (ie one townie answers as honestly as possible and the other townie reacts to those answers) Yamato is not so bad that he wouldn't recognize the shitstorm inherent in straight up refusing to answer another player trying to figure out your alignment. Maybe, just maybe hes so lazy and apathetic that he doesn't care, but you know what? It's more likely that Yamato a) felt that any answers he would give were going to be shit derived from a bull and would just weaken his currently strong position and b) that he could get away with not answering because town had given him a total pass and was focused on Slam (seriously, everybody was town reading yam at this point, it was uncanny.) These fears and considerations do not belong to a town player. They are the machinations of a scum player who gave a bullshit read at the start (which it most certainly was, especially considering Slam was playing better than I have ever seen him play) and then justified it as he went with someones elses case. If the slam train hadnt started up I'm certain Yamato would have never pointed out Slams reaction / : he probs woulda carried on and found someone else to nib at. This I feel is backed up by that post where he secretly down graded his slam lynch (probably in concert with Slam not really offering much to go after) To qoute Yamato himself . I think mafia GB randomly decided to scumread someone and fabricated the reason over multiple posts. I bilieve this is exactly what was going on with Yamato's slam read(yay hypocrisy!) THIS HAS BEEN, THE FIRST SIN, OF YAMATO COMING UP YAMATO, AN ALL SEEING GOD??! | ||

Yamato had a slam scum read early on that was super wishy washy. The only reason he provided for this read came mid day and was someone elses read. Yamato refused to give his original cause for that early read, but confirmed that he did find slam scummy way back when foooooor reasons? | ||

Even if you do consider the points vs players like Chrome, GB, Rayn and Onegu(player I would most want to lynch after Yamato) valid, which I dont in most cases / :, how are any of them a superior lynch to a shitty lurker who had a very obviusly scummy dynamic with the day 1 mislynch? | ||

The simpler alternative is that GB just threw out a statement about Slam without worrying about it, knowing that it would have zero effect on the wagon on Slam and even less effect on the wagon on him. I'm telling a story based off my own experiences. This is how I feel in these positions and how I've noticed others feel. Could I be wrong? Possibly but my strength as a player is reading townies (usually pretty right when It comes to this), and I'm telling you unless Gb is a very effective liar he is not scum / : the possibility that he has fooled me and others who credit themselves with reading emotions, is of course real but far less than the odds that Yamato is scum for the arguments I brought up above. Whats more if Yamato is scum, based of his interactions with Gb, Gb is not scum (Gb was Yamatos only real hardcore push) Our two reads are direcly opposed to one another and because Yamato looks objectively worse than Gb theres no way I'm willing to lynch gb first. If yamato flips town, fine, then all bets are off. But till then I really dont see why we would bother lynching anyone else. | ||

I have you as town for filter length and activity, you seem to care about the game which is the towniest trait one can have right now. I have chromatically as town, still. I find hard to believe any scum would put so much effort into writing a scum case on you and me, reading filters and shit. I think Rayn can be mafia but his rage quit is giving me pause. Nonetheless, his flip on me + slam's read on him all points out to him being mafia. I don't trust his rage on slam very much because, well, he knows how slam plays and slam was actually being productive - but productive against Rayn. I am very suspicious of Onegu. I will always think he is a good lynch. Hopeless has some townie posts but some of them are too similar to Avogadro's mini mafia. I think gumshoe might be town just because he is defending me. I can't see mafia motivation behind defending me. Now that yamato is extremely unproductive I can see him being scum. As I said, yamato is one of the players that we can have better reads on later days. And here we are. I don't know what to do with BH. Some of his posts seems very townie, others seems like fluff. I particularly dislike his "eternal dining" posts. On the other hand, I think the has being thinking about the game critically, so he is probably town. I don't know if I forgot someone. Remember how Yamato attacked you for bullshiting against Vivax? Then casually switched over to accusing Vivax once the chance of your lynch evaporated? Theory- wouldn't that make sense, if you were wrong about Vivax and Yamato knew this cause he was scum?(hence why he was so certain you were making shit up as you went along, from his perspective as scum it would look exactly like that to him no matter you were saying about Vivax, cause the bottom line would be that your wrong)he then was fine with switching onto Vivax because wait for it! Hes scum -_- Proposal- Lets lynch Yamato, then we can come back to Vivax, if Yamato is scum, then wouldn't that tell you a bit about Vivax? | ||

Doesn't mean i should want to lynch Onegu, a shit-tastic troll player over --, who actually plays the game. people expect things of Yamato, whereas this game is par for the course with Onegu / : both are fine lynches but the edge should definitely go to the guy who if scum, was playing based off a scum agenda and was actually trying somewhat. | ||

Ritoky is town for the same Reason Yamato is scum. Ritoky's switch onto Onegu last second makes very little sense as scum, if Onegu is town and gets bussed last sec, Ritoky looks terrible. If Onegue is scum, he just helped kill his teamate 0_0 seems like a dumb and unnecessary risk when town is already fixated on slam. It's possible Ritoky was super confident Bh's lynch wouldn't go through, but then why bother at all? Just to distance himself from the slam lynch? Could backfire huge if Onegu actually did get lynched (would look like a last second buss off of Ritoky's buddy slam) compare this to Yam no (in reponse to a last second bus on Onegu)I find it hard to believe that Yam actually considered Slam more scummy then Onegu(this really was slams best game in a while). When prompted to switch he didn't, if he is scum, no matter what Onegu flips it's bad for him. If Onegu flips town, Yamato just led a last second switch off his Slam scum read making him look pretty terrible... If Onegu is scum, he just killed a teamate for no reason XD. Tldr, anyone who was apart of the last second push onto Onegu is probally town, Yamato was not one of these people though he had the chance to be, this in conjunction with his other sketchiness means Yamato is the best lynch T_T please vote for Yamato.

Yamato is a very experienced player, even when lurking you can see his usefulness. Theres none of that this game, all his actions have been a detriment to town. Onegu is a shit poster troll with a place in callers pantheon. Theres really no comparison between them. Also do you really think Gb is scum with Yamato? If not (which is what you should think, cause thinking otherwise would be derp) then just vote Yamato, he is far sketchier then Gb XD and if he flips scum you can easily rule out Gb as a suspect.

I think you misread/misinterpreted some quotes in that first yamato case. He says that he disagrees with a townread on Slam, then that he doesn't have a solid read on Slam, and then that he's not opposed to killing Slam and gives some reasoning before voting him. Those really aren't inconsistent with each other at all. As for yamato and GB being together, it doesn't really matter right now. Maybe they can be, maybe they can't, but it's no use thinking about it until one of them flips mafia. I think GB is much more likely to flip mafia, so he's the one I'm going after. In between these two statements, a list is proposed to him, he says one player on it he wouldn't call scum, based off his prior refusal to town read slam, we can deduce hes other bieng misleading, or hes telling us that hes ok with slam bieng scum. The reasoning he provides for Slam bieng scum completely parrots Marvs reasoning (that Slam wouldn't react that way) Slam later confirms that he did find slam scummy you bore me what do you think about them? going back now and explaining why I thought those things at that time is pointless not much has changed If Yamato didnt think slam was scummy, dont you think he would say that? As opposed to this shit? He also says nothings changed -_- like Chrom wtf? how do you want me to fucking take this post? This is mafia, not a giving waffley sons of bitches the benefit of the doubt simulator.As for them bieng together. Of course it matters -_- if Yamato flips scum then Gb is 100 percent town. If they are buds, why would Yamato redirect godamm fucking Marv onto Gb. [quote]Literally scumreading Vivax because too many townreads Confident Vivax is town Vivax. Paranoia is not a trait, but a symptom of his overconfidence in his own reads. He's so convinced he's right, he doesn't care if everyone else reads the player town, THAT PLAYER IS MAFIA Plus he defends me for ? reasons just to throw more shit at Vivax meh marv fell off this for basically no reason, I would have pushed him more[/quote] Getting Marv to go after Gb is one of the surest ways to get Gb killed. It's like throwing A FUCKING NUKE AT SOMEONE. and it almost results in Gb's death -_-. Gb never says much about Yamato, if Gb flips green or red it says absoloutley nothing about Yamatos alignment.

This is something I think you're misreading, I assume the underlined part in the nested quote is the intended reading of that: I am a firm believer in the fact that the best lynch is always the one that is most likely to flip mafia, and I think that's GB over yamato at this point. Lynching for information like this is nearly always a really bad idea. And after we get a mafia flip, there will be lots of information to analyze regardless of who it is. GB's flip might not say much about yamato's alignment (haven't really thought about it), but it would definitely give information on a bunch of other people. But that's something to worry about once we have a mafia flip, which is priority number one. This post kind of turned out to be a semi-yamato defense which I don't want to do any more of, because I think it's better if yamato himself explains what he was thinking in response to your case. So keep pursuing him if you think he has the objectively best chance to flip mafia! Hopefully he'll come back and explain his thought process to you and then we'll all have a better idea of his alignment. I really have no idea why your defending Yamato. Like your working so hard to make it out as if "no you dont understand, he never thought slam was scum" when he at the very LEAST figured he wasn't likely town. Which is the same pretty much -_- like, this Yamato person you imagine is so vauge with his reads that I can build an entire case against him based off how shoddy his posts comes off (thats how misleading he is) and this is a person you want to defend? How can you back up such unrestrained waffle hood. At this point I'm convinced your just arguing your point cause your just so super tunneled on Gb youll find way to disprove anyone elses argument to get your way. Which ironically is just the same with Gb and his vivax tunnel XD How can you not see that your acting the same as the person you want to lynch? It stuns me beyond measure. I'm also not lynching for info, I know 100 percent that if yam is scum then Gb is town. Therefore my goal is to convince you to lynch Yam not just to lynch scum, but so that I can prevent a Gb lynch down the road. If we lynch onegu, then that solves nothing even if hes scum. Great the troll flipped red wot now. If we lynch Yamato (who I am convinced is the most scummy player if that helps you bite down)then we can for certain know Gb is town. If you think otherwise then I'll just have to accept having one less vote to work with -_- which sucks cause I am pretty certain your green at this point. Players like you have developed all these shitty stigmas against meta and connections that youve gotten scared to make reads beyond "hmm this guy has been posting like shit, must be scum!". Going from a point "ie x had scum knowledge available to them" and looking at they're play from that lens is a valid tactic to anylyze behavior -_- Right now I can see the game unfolding before me. Yamato is the lynch pin, this is the turning point. One of Yamato and Gb is scum, the other is town. If we guess right, we can prevent a mislynch, guess wrong and were one step closer to losing. Mafia is about knowing the right player to sheep more often than not : P today thats me, tommorow its you : D Forget about your tunnel, just do me this one favor this one time. I have found scum.

I don't really want to talk about it any more though because I think that's something he should explain more, but it's not a point against him in my book. Comparing my push on GB to GB's push on Vivax is just silly. I have, in my opinion, a rock solid case that's supported by hard evidence. That's nothing like the "case" on Vivax. I think you are reading too much into associations. You do not know 100% that GB is town if yamato is mafia, and that's based on yamato being mafia anyway, which is what we should be focusing on! Possible association reads that happen based on a flip (which there will almost certainly be some of regardless of who we're lynching) should not affect the central objective, which is lynching mafia. Say we lynch GB and he flips mafia-- now we can go into his filter and get association reads from the people he interacted with. I have not developed any stigma against meta at all. In fact, meta is a central point of my case against GB. I do have a problem with unflipped associations, because they're very often a bad idea. Basically, yamato might flip scum. But I do not think he's the best lynch today compared to GB and Onegu. So we can agree to disagree, and I'll push my reads while you push yours. Scum doesnt try and send the best player in the game against thier own team mates. If you cant accept that then I cannot trust or take seriusly anything you say. If you want to assert that associations don't mean that much, your free to do that. But if you seriously think that an experienced scumer would do that out of the blue to their own teammate.

1:Gb is not as active as usual 2:does not push his reads like he does normally. 3:miscelanius points 1: This ones easy, activity, I have been highly active this game, I currently have 5 pages mid day 2. You only have six, are we mafia Chrom? 4 pages is plenty for day 1. More would mostly just result in thread clutter. Some players as they get better become more concise and as the initial excitement wears off they're a little less eager to post. Maybe gb is just improving at making his point without 5 million posts? Would you not regard that as an improvement? Gb is also currently active in school as we learnt earlier this game. That and he took on a ton of heat earlier and when were under attack were less free to pursue reads and were busy defending ourselves (which usually amounts to smaller posts as its just us answering questions or crying onto our keyboards, were also kinda sad so we post less overall) Does your sample size (which is already ludicrously small, with only 2 usable town games to speak of, seriously shouldn't have included the post limit one) account for any of those factors? Absolutely not. This point is utterly moot and should have never been brought to thread. 2: This also is a fairly easy point to break. Gb has pushed his Vivax read super godamm hard. Well, I think he is mafia because he is assuming things in absolutes. I'm used to see Vivax being paranoid town and him giving a bunch of town reads right out of the blue does not looks like his standard gameplay. There are a couple of similar posts like the one regarding yamato, but there are no posts where he shows the reason to his top town reads. His first post was a vote on yamato? And yes, he CAN do it as town, but his whole filter has posts in similar fashion. And I usually see Vivax being paranoid. Not this straight forward. I may be wrong here marv, but what I'm trying to say is not that he is calling people mafia, but that his posts are very straight forward here (that's what I trying to saying with "absolutes" = he calls a player mafia, he calls a player town - I don't see him having a slow progression on most people. And I'm used to Vivax being way more wary before giving reads). It's basically tonal. I think I'm having a hard time even to understand what I want to say LOL. I mean he had a couple of theories to tunnel both of you. He WASN'T straight forward. His town reads were never strong because of the tin foil. But here, less than half a day, he already has like 4 townreads, and two of them I don't even understand why. By the way, Vivax, what are the reasons to townread BH and Xata? Vivax you KNOW that if yamato is town he will eventually come to the thread and try. It has been like that for a long time. It's the kind of player that you get better read on him as the game goes by. Instead you decided to push him at the start of day 1 and is actually scum reading him for being AFK for less than 24 hours. I pushed Vivax because I don't like his tone and his easy town passes. I can find it scummy before further investigating it. I'm re-reading the game atm. I can go on, but I wont, suffice to say there are 12 direct Vivax is mafia posts with reasoning provided. For refrence, Marv the guy with a 10 page filler has only 10 posts with actual points against slam, the day 1 lynch. What kind of super human standard are you holding Gb too? The guy argued against Vivax until all of town collectively jumped on his dick for it. He woulda gone on for sure if he didnt have to spend time defending himself -_- did he have ward off the likes of Rayn and Marv AND Yamato in the games you mentioned? Have you not considered the situation at fucking all? Despite all that he is extremely passionate about his Vivax case, I dont know how you can say he isn't 0_0. as town, GB not only pushes his target a lot, but is very passionate about doing so (doing capslock or spamming the thread to vote for his target). As mafia, he may have a target but he is much calmer about it and doesn't seem to be very invested in the lynch saying something is dispassionate doesn't make it dispassionate. Are we even playing the same game? Gb had more activity day 1 then the vast majority of town(more than me and you and me) thats not even considering that he had class Wednesday. Oh and heres your caps lock I HAVE READ THE THREAD I KNOW YOU "YOLO'ED" AND CALLED ONEGU TOWN FOR NO REASON I KNOW YOU META'ED HOPELESS AND CALLED HIM TOWN I KNOW MARV AND YOU HAD TWO INITIAL TOWNREADS - XATALOS AND VIVAX I KNOW YOU FUCKING HAD GUMSHOE AS MAFIA THEN FLIPPED YOUR READ WHY CAN'T I BRING WHAT I THINK ABOUT PLAYERS AND ASK YOU TO COMMENT ABOUT WHAT I'VE BROUGHT INSTEAD OF SAYING "OH OKAY RAYN SAID THESE GUYS ARE TOWN SO THEY ARE"????!?!?? JESUS CHRIST how is this diffrent compared to the ones you showed? Cherry picking is fun, but it doesnt really have a place here Chrom / : Oh and the Rayn lynch you mentioned was an association read of Vivax, didn't really count on it's own. I dont blame Gb for not pushing his lynch harder than he already was come lynch time XD, he had no thread power whatsoever and people who did have it were firmly against him, what would you have him do, push for Vivax until town lynched gb just to shut him up? 3: Miscelanius points. Point 1! I thought these were very strange posts to get reads from. Why does my post in there give him such a strong townread on me? I LITERALLY said that BH hasn't done anything alignment indicative and I get a day pass for it??? What? The posts from ritoky and Xatalos he quoted also seemed very strange, since I do not consider those posts particularly town at all. This doesn't make sense from town, but it makes sense from a mafia trying to manufacture their town reads on players they already know are town. Why does scum need to manufacture town reads on players who look super shitty? Wouldnt that be a bad idea 0_0 town can infer from several little cues why someone would be town, I have green cleared people for far less this game(I think I green lighted rickoty for coming after me at one point, thats all), why arent you attacking me right now for that? You know that your town chrom and you know your taking heat, in this situation why does gb feel compelled to like you if hesscum when he can just set you up as a lynch target, or just say hes null on you? This point makes no sense from a scum perspective whatsoever unless your all his scum buddies XD, but it can make sense from a derpy or intuitive townie. misc point 2 Yamato isn't an easy catch day1 by the way, Viv. He is actually very hard to catch because a lot of times he is town he also AFK's and die because of that. Like the last time he smurfed and got lynched. I think it's Himalayas? you actually cherry picked this point like a champ. This a continuation pretty much of a previous post in which hes scum reading Vivax Vivax you KNOW that if yamato is town he will eventually come to the thread and try. It has been like that for a long time. It's the kind of player that you get better read on him as the game goes by. Instead you decided to push him at the start of day 1 and is actually scum reading him for being AFK for less than 24 hours. He wasnt advising Vivax, he was given an example of how Yamato plays, to back up his accusation that Vivax was laying into Yamato early on -_- this is more along the lines of "you should know this, therefore your scum for not" rather than "heres some friendly advise kind stranger!" Tldr. 1:Gb does actively push his read on Vivax. 2:Activity in this case doesnt work as an argument considering the weakness of your sample and the extenuating circumstances. 3: The points you raise against him, that he town reads non townie players that are actually fucking townie (which is dumb cause there's no reason to do that as scum, it can actually come back to bite you pretty hard as a point of contention.) and that he some how interrupts his fight with vivax to teach him(which is so dumb, because for starters that doesnt make him scum and for enders he didn't interrupt it, he was continuing a point) are all dumb. Come back with a non troll case plox. | ||

Not paticularly, I town read you for tone, and the slam thing. If yamato flips green, it just means he may or may not have been wrong about you. Nothing else. The only thing that really says anything is a red flip. ie if Yam is scum, you must be town, the inverse applies as well if you flip red. Basically you COULD both be town, or its 1 and 1, but you cant both be scum. But yam is way scummier, so he always goes first. If he does flip green, I dont actually know what tommorows lynch will look like. The rayn killers will probally come back, people will call for your head, Onegu will probally be the only viable lynch but I'm not 100 percent sold on him as scum as I am yam. If it comes to that well deal with it then, but I dont think itll come to that / : | ||

In my case, I made the clear point that his activity in this game was more similar to his activity as mafia than as town. I also showed how the way he pushed his Vivax read is not the same as how he pushes cases as town (providing quotes from other games). The caps lock post you quoted as an example of passion is not relevant, because that post is just GB yelling at rayn for something, not pushing a read passionately like he does as town. I was pretty impressed at how many insults and condescending phrases you worked into that post though, given that I've been nice to you about your yamato posts I disagree with! I'm sorry ) : I'm super mean when I'm trying to get a lynch together. It's my equivalent to driving on the highway. I honestly think your very smart and my meaness is more like a tick than anything else. I'll try to keep it civil from now on. for the activity, 4 pages is alot considering he was busy day 1 and that he was coming under heat for most of it. The vivax case was high jacked by others laying into him for it, so it mostly became him explaining himself, which is a pretty townie thing to have happen / : also your sample size is really unreliable, which you said as much and should invalidate that whole filter point from the get. If it was like 2 pages I'd get it, but 4 is more than me or you / : it's an active filter. Basically, the points you bring up feel null rather than scummy.

Actual point: Slam was playing seriously, yet you were certain he was scum and concluded that hes a huge troll for not being scum... How can you be certain Xata is not just a huge troll as well? Where does your deliusional confidence stem from Rayn? Can I have a hit? Why should we ever trust you if you dont actually give a fuck? Oh wait you dont give a fuck, so yeah, guess we should just not bother trusting or listening you. Tip 1(dont read this unless you want to be offended+ Show Spoiler + )Do everyone a favor and leave the thread. Other people want you to contribute, but I dont. I want you to go, because everything your going to say for the rest of the game is going to be poison and the only way I see scum winning is if they can somehow harvest your terrible reads as a reusable power source to fuel thier scum ray. Tip2 (dont read unless you want to be even more offended):+ Show Spoiler + Why not get drunk again? I would honestly rather you get modkilled at this point, that way we dont have to listen to your trash and risking spending a lynch on you. | ||

a) Xata is scum, I was right all along. b) Xata is a huge troll and a terrible player, and he deserved to be lynched. The absolute arrogance displayed in this line of reasoning is truly revolting. Heres a harsh truth for you Rayn, regardless of how shitty a player is, when you mislynch them, it's every bit as much your fault as it is theirs (Scum Rayn actually gets that better than you do XD). Given THIS paticular situation, it's entirely your fault because Slam and xata are not playing badly by any stretch, there just off here and there. Honestly, take it from a guy whose been mislynched more times than hes won games, just because someone finds you scummy, and your town, doesnt mean they are scum 0_0 The they should know better line of reasoning is by no means absolute and should not be enough to fuel the unbridled indignation you have been flaunting since the end of day 1. | ||

I would really like to set everything straight with those I think are town long before any shenannies can cause a ruckus way too early before deadline. In the last couple of hours my read on rayn has worsened and the read on GB has improved somewhat. I typed up a question asking him if he still thinks I'm mafia but I figure he still does for some reason. What's good for him is that he's on a good wagon with two who I think are very likely town and myself. Rayn is being a complete dick and I know he likes to do that as mafia. Chrom freaks me out with his persistence on GB over yamato. That said, I wouldn't mind lynching rayn any more, I would even lynch him before GB to make the thread more enjoyable, and cause he doesn't shine town to me as he does to Chrom for some reason.

Dunno about GB, but you at least haven't convinced anyone on him with your own posts. So if you're scum, I guess I can understand saying these things, but if you're town, it's just unbelievable arrogance and overestimation of your own contributions. What do you think of Hopeless supporting my Yam lynch? Could it be a bus?

Oh well though. I don't know what else to say at this point. I looked into your meta thing. Your argument that Gb isnt pushing as hard as normal doesnt consider that 1) Gb has been busy and has had classes 2) Gb came under a ton of heat for pushing a derpy scum read(which is a townie thing btw) and had to spend time defending himself 3) by non Gb standards he pushed his case pretty hard, which considering you only have to valid 2 town games in your sample size should be enough to takethis point down to null. I also countered the miscellaneous points you brought up 1) Gb wasnt teaching vivax he was continuing a 'vivax is scum' point from before 2) Theres no reason to give town passes to sketchy players as scum unless they're your buds (you know your town so yeah, thats one point against that possibility), mislynches are scums lifeblood, scum want to create an environment of negativity and distrust, building bridges with lynchable townies is not the way to do that. | ||

Pushing a bad read relentlessly is not townie, it's very easy for mafia to continue pushing one read the whole time even if no one listens to them. Non-GB standards don't matter because we're talking about GB, and I don't think he pushed it hard in either case. Giving town reads for no reason is something mafia do often because it's very easy for them to do. I am so so sick of arguing with you about this because I've done it all day and for some absurd reason you are so so certain that GB is town that you spend so much time hard defending him. I'm pushing my read, the one that everyone agreed was mafia and yet somehow wasn't even close to getting lynched today, where everyone jumped on yamato at the first opportunity with little reasoning. Maybe I'm wrong. I don't think so though. Hopefully yamato will flip mafia. I told you my reason, I dont think scum gb wouldnt jump on the slam lynch -_- if you dont find that convincing Im not suprised, as I know whats its like to be commited to your own lynch come hell or high water, but you should at least remember it / : Also I think Yam is scum, therefore Gb cannot be town, if you dispute this then we have diffrent perceptions of people in general (im not trying to be mean, I'm just saying this is pivotal point I base all my reads on) They cannot both be scum, yam looks kinda scummy, Gb looks more derpy, therefore I would never want gb to get lynched first because if yam flips scum then we can clear gb 100 percent. So yeah, I will never consider the possibility of a gb lynch until yam flips.

Whereas Yamato basically played super sketch day 1, and then just checked out day 2, cause he knew anything he would say would be used against him (like how you use every little thing gb fucks up on against him) Yamato is generally helpful as town, whereas all his actions this game has aligned with scum. That and I really only need to get Yamato to flip red to prove gb is green. So no point going through the motions of mislynching gb.

Meh, Xata may have pocketed me pretty hard, but if Yam flips scum that should pretty much clear him so once again, no reason to shift course.

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. you so sexy. | ||

He spent a lot of time tlaking about my rng, voted slam literally expressly as a sheep, and asked/answered a few basica questions. I guess this post by Yam: Is probably better than the entire hopeless filter combined even though it's mostly BS. Generally, it seems like Hopeless1 is a slightly better lynch to me.

How about we be ready to shenannie onto H1 if Yam is gonna get modkilled due to failure to vote?

Hopeless never mentioned yam at all really until his vote, so thats an obvius one. Onegu's vote on hopeless was super pointless for a townie. The kind of thing I could see him doing because he knew both wagons (gb and yam) were town and wanted to be like "hah!

OF COURSE GB is going to have more weird flipflops and flaws than yamato; yamato literally hasn't posted. You can't say GB looks worse than yamato and have that be a meaningful statement.

Basically it comes down to my opinion of Rayn as a person. I've played voice mafia, video mafia and forum mafia with rayn more than any other player. Weve yelled at eachother, weve lynched eachother, like and disliked one another. I once swore on my life to him that I was town. And you know what? He believed me, but was fucking mad at me for what he considered cheating . The godamm nerve. That Rayn, WOULD get pissed at slam, for what in his mind is a gross breach of conduct (dont ask how, it all makes sense in his head) But as scum? Hed just let it go with a passing remark of anger or apology , and move on to the next lynch. Because thats his code, in Rayns head there is respectable way to play mafia. The code allows him to act like this in response to people breaking the code, but him using like this, in a way that loses towns respect and forfiets control, thats not how rayn plays or wants to win as scum ) : Thats not the evil Rayn I know, and if hes willing to break that meta, fine, but as a result I would think less of him, and I think on some level he would think less of himself. So if I lose cause I had faith in what I know of Rayn, fine let it be, and he wins by emulating all the he hates, let it be again. Because there are more important things at play here. | ||

rayn dying means scum felt they couldn't mislynch him. scum not bieng able to mislynch him means at least 2 out of three scum are town reading him and to turn around and lynch him for no real reason would be super scummy of them. Is this really such a stretch? Basically my argument is that the majority of the scum team couldn't lynch rayn cause they were town reading rayn.

Story of the shoe ) : Every game since though, I have chased that high, that moment of clarity when the seas of logic and empathy part before me to reveal the truth o_o some players just play for the sake of it, but others are chasing a high. Rayn desires the 'proper' game, slam wants to help town by being somewhat silly yet simultaneously wise and insightful, and I want to catch the 'mystery. That might translate into mislynches, bm, and shit play, but its supposed to be just that. Play. A quest for Fun. A search for that particular Thrill.

This is a good summary of your thoughts, right? well this describes pertty well a situation with all scum not voting rayn, but it ALSO describes a situation where scum are voting rayn and literally all townies think he's town. Like, AND AGAIN, I'm not saying this is true, just pointing out the gap in your logic, it's totally possible that someone gets shot and before he was shot scum were trying to push him and town was resisting.

The fact that you thought I was town should be clear to you that RAYN was wrong so if he is dead it's because mafia tried to wifom us EXACTLY, the only way rayn is unlychable is if scum are in a position where they cannot help rayn be lynched. Bh brought up that it could also be that scum are the only ones pushing rayn. But that would mean 2 out of you vivax xat and ritoky are scum. You should KNOW your town, so it cant be you, that means 2 out of xat vivax and ritoky are scum which I dont bilieve. on the other hand we have the case that scum simply are town reading rayn, therefore they are trying to just wifom us cause they can never kill him. This would support the theory that Hopeless and onegu are scum (two scummy players that are in no position to push rayn as they are town reading him, they fit the bill perfectly.) The problem is, it only accounts for two of scum, the third can be whatever on Rayn / : so yeah, mah theory doesnt clear or condemn any one player, it just makes a compelling case that there are 2 scum out there that CANNOT mislynch rayn cause theyre stuck town reading him. | ||

For example, ritoky eagerly jumped on Onegu D1, and again voted for GB D2. GB has also pushed Onegu lately. Could be bussing I guess, but especially ritoky is a bit hard to explain.

I'm just saying your logc, which again, seems to be pretty strange, could be used to prove both "scum were all on rayn" and "no scum were on rayn". If you are using a heuristic or piece of logic and it can prove anything easily, it should be allowed to fail. The problem with this idea that "scum weren't able to lynch rayn, therefore scum are X, Y, and Z" fails because it explains too much. If an explanation can explain literally any outcome, it has no predictive value. I actually went back and found the quote that first explained this concept to me, so you too can learn: --Devine and Cohen, Absolute Zero Gravity, p. 96. Thats very true, but we have a certain context to clash against my argument, which gives it some utility. heres the frame my argument provides. Scum want to win, scum need to mislynch townies, rayn on paper is the most mislynchable townie, but they shot him, so clearly there was some reason that scum were not confident in mislynching him. There are two possibilities. 1: The majority of Scum are pushing rayn and the rest of town are opposed, which would mean a combination of xatalos, ritoky, gb and vivax, 2 of which, vivax and gb, cant be scum together, and the other 2 arent likely scum based of thier play. so not real hit there. 2: The majority of scum are town reading rayn for varius reasons, and cannot switch to him without contradicting themselves. townies fairly vehemently oposed to rayn bieng scum (hopeless, gumshoe, onegu, bh chromatically) three of these players, me you and chrom, appear townie from thier play, but hopeless and onegu do fit the mold of a majority scum team that cannot mislynch rayn because they are townreading him. Basically when you cross refrence scummy play with the argument that most of sum are townreading rayn and therefore cannot mislynch him, and the argument that most of scum are scum reading him therefore they cannot lynch him, this is the only real hit you get. Does that make sense? Imagine the two possibilities of the fan argument, but consider as well that there are markings on the wall that suggest one rotation as opposed to the other. That's how one would figure the truth in such a matter. | ||

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 / : | ||

##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. | ||

I gotta grab dinner real quick but I'll have an answer for you at least half an hour before deadline 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. | ||

By wasting them on hopeless if hes town he is effectively sacrificing his ability to influence the vote. If the vote is between scum and town, and scum survive then the townie who burned his vote has effectively contributed to another townies mislynch. 3: This works as well vice versa for a scummer trying to save his teamates, but what if 1gu's teamates were never at risk? 4: 1gus day 2 behavior is only optimal if a scummer was not in danger and 1gu is scum, if 1gu is town, he does not actually know if his vote will make a diffrence or not, but if 1gu is scum, he DOES know that the best move is to steer clear of the lynch, so as to avoid fall out from it. Basically avoiding a vote is a pr move, you know who cares about pr? Scum / : the end lynch da goo. | ||

Rayn scum reads Xata, and hopeless and then dies. Coincidence I think not. Anyway I am going to bed. We should lynch xata or hopeless today. Hopeless is scum this I am sure That vote from hopeless on Xata is so fucking random, If he is going to be around why use a placeholder and why Xata. Then he drops a vote on GB... Why does this give me the heebie jeebies that this is two town wagons... Can we please vote hopeless? So question, why is hopeless town reading onegu right this instant? I honestly dont have the answer Agree with this, and onegu doesnt seem as bad as GB after reading through their filters. GB is constantly throwing around "but what about this scummy thing thats just like me", seems like trying to deflect from himself All we have atm is that onegu isnt as scummy as gb... so what? Is he town reading onegu? WHY?! He said townreading onegu cause hes just teasing, but thats a godamm lie! lets be generous and say he consideres gb and onegu his top two scum reads, who would you rather lynch?

It should be pretty telling to you that gumshoe was strong townreading me, then decided to vote me to follow his townreads, but when I confronted him he decided to simply "Unvote" while still scumreading Onegu. Then he decided to vote me again over TONE LOL. Now he is voting Onegu, but just when the lynch is secured on me (he voted Onegu when I've reached majority with 5 votes). This is fucking scummy. BUT if Onegu turns out to be town, gumshoe is always town because there is no reason to do so many scummy moves when the main two wagons are town. I will expand on this in a couple of minutes.

He took every piece of evidence he could find to call me town. Then, today, he decided to vote me. His excuse was "I had to go" because all of his townies were suspecting me and he couldn't waste another day of discussion. The problem here is: he was also scumreading Onegu way before and his townreads were putting ME and ONEGU as obvious scum partners. If he thought I was town before, wouldn't it be better if he asked his townreads to vote me since, well, THEY WERE ALL SCUMREADING ONEGU AND ONEGU WAS ALREADY A COUNTER WAGON? This makes no sense under a town perspective. If I have someone I'm at least not sure is town or mafia and if I have someone that I am scumreading since way before, who would I vote? Obviously the scum read. The excuse that his townreads were scumreading me and that they couldn't waste more discussion on me is bullshit because his townreads were also scumreading Onegu and whoever survives from the team they've made will also have to be discussed on later days. It simply doesn't make sense. 2) When I've confronted gumshoe, he decided to respond it with an UNVOTE. WITH. AN. UNVOTE. Let me tell you again. His townreads had me and onegu as mafia. He decided to vote me who he thought was town. When I confront him, he gets convinced I shouldn't be voted. But instead of going against Onegu, he UNVOTES without voting HIS OWN SCUMREAD which is SHARED WITH HIS TOWNREADS. WHY? 3) Then he decides to vote me because he didn't like my tone. This guy is simply saying that after ALL THE EVIDENCE, after ALL THE POSTS HE QUOTED FROM ME to call me town, he thinks I am mafia out of a TONE READ. Again, why not voting Onegu? 4) When I reach majority with 5 votes, he finally decided to vote Onegu. In other words, he only votes his scumread when his former townread is dying anyways. There is no way gumshoe isn't mafia with Onegu. But in the case he is... ~ If ONEGU is TOWN Then gumshoe is 100% town because there is no way he does all these scummy things with both wagons being town. lord save me from these godamm, not even townies, carnies. 1: I AM TRYING TO KILL ONEGU RIGHT THIS INSTANCE. chill out brah. 2: Big part of my read on you was my scum read on yam / : once that didnt pan out I had to reconsider, thats the nature of reading someone one way cause you read someone else another. 3: I still kinda town read you (never put you above 50 percent scum honestly) its just your the only person I am willing to spend our one remaining mislynch on(gone into this indepth already but everyone else except one dude outside the 3 is super townie).

I think there's a good case that H1's vote means GB has to be town. On the other hand, 1G/GB/H1 isn't ruled out by this: it's worth noting that up until the very end, GB was on the chopping block. H1 was voting GB, who was going to flip scum (in this hypothetical) and make himself look good. It's not like 1G was ACTUALLY going to survive. If we lynched GB, first, we were still gonna lynch 1G even if I get shot-- lots of people were convinced on 1G. That being said, we should probably lynch H1 first. In both of these scenarios, H1 is scum, and EITHER WAY, I think H1 MUST be lynched before end of game. Like, even if he's somehow town, how would we know? We have to lynch H1. I'm onboard with lynching H1 first, then. I'll take some time to think of third scum and do some reading tonight. One of me or gum is probably getting shot so the other has to lead town with just the filter of the dead guy. Gummy, you and I should both leave behind good analysis I actually dont care if gb dies, call me cold for that, but yeah I dont trust the guy at lylo and we still have 1 mislynch so who better to spend it on right?

I was assuming his posting style made him town all game long but given that 2 mafia are planning the endgame now and he has started to doing all sorts of shady shit, I'm reevaluating. Take a look at this post, it's from D1. When you look at the votecounts in question you will notice that nobody ever had a chance to kill Onegu cause marv and rayn were both on the slam wagon with huge support from others. Point I'm making is that this read is weird given the information we have now, and suggests gumshoe had knowledge of how to read people around Onegu's alignment. Another example: When he went all nuts and Chrom-defender after I told Chrom that if he wanted Onegu's reads he could simply look them up. As you will soon see, neither was ritoky's switch "last second" (it happened 12 min prior lynch), nor does it make sense for gumshoe to make the assumption that ritoky is town cause if Onegu was town ritoky would look terrible. And I think this is a nail in the coffin type of argument already, cause now I'm explaining it like you're 12. First of all, he's exaggerating the weight of what ritoky really did: Last second switch, killig Onegu when the majority was on Slam all the time and didn't have any intention to switch. Second, he's making this argument in which he spews Onegu's alignment (and ritoky's with the entire post). Second, he's using this logic: "Since ritoky would look terrible if Onegu flipped town, he is town". at a time where he couldn't possibly be certain on Onegu's alignment, and also wasn't in his scumreads posts. He literally assumed 100 % that Onegu was mafia when making this post.

[/QUOTE] I have considered onegu scummy all game based off his lacklustre play. Never once have I town read him, was I bussing my teammate to max? Maybe? Purposeless bussing is dumb to me. As for the accuracy of the read, remember, everyone who town read onegu did so for meta reasons, but I cannot recall a game where we were both active together. Basically I was immunized to the whole onegu is always bad therefore he's town bug. So I wasn't calling him scum because I knew his alignment, I was calling him scum cause he looked scummier than everyone else there. As for my ritoky argument, your counter point makes sense only if I was certain that ritoky was certain the slam lynch would never happen (which how the fuck could I be?)but by the end there were as many votes on onegu as there were on rayn, I woulda switched myself but I was scared of scum hammering rayn instead of onegu or slam. But yeah I stand by it even now, if you last second sheep a guy who leads a shenayne onto a townie off a guy everyone wanted dead, your gonna have a bad time, and if you did it onto your scum buddy, why? All that plus ritoky a actions yesterday means ritoky is town. Also chrom is town too, leave him alone. | ||

Or we'd be stupid for not both being on the bus Don't get me even started on the GB and me scenario cause that's just super idiotic. He's reading way too much into that to be townie. And the focus on Onegu. If he was stuck on voting Slam like he was without partaking in shenannies like ritoky, then why is it one of his first thoughts to analyse ritoky's alignment BASED on Onegu's alignment? The point is that as mafia you have a different type of attention to things. Like Onegu slipping that Slam was town when he said "the best marv has is a lynch on Slam" and then ends up TRing marv. Both flipped townies (you gotta work with that not with the conspiracies around my alignment depending on GB's). I think that in that post gumshoe said something mafia would say, since he resorted to analysing the action of a guy I'm assuming to be town (ritoky) using a now flipped mafia as the person that made a difference in reading ritoky. And that happened when in the posts previous to those posts, he wasn't pushing for an Onegu lynch, he was pushing for hopeless and yamato. If you go back a little more you find what he was actually saying about 1gu: + Show Spoiler + id get behind an onegu lynch to spare slam and rayn, also in these posts he calls hopeless and ritoky scum for super vauge reasons. Found this kinda townie when I saw it? more to do with my fantasy mafia team than anything else but the reads were so weak they might not actually count against it. Oh and the nice post above says this: + Show Spoiler + I have considered onegu scummy all game based off his lacklustre play. Never once have I town read him grats, your cherry picked the one super fucking flip floppy qoute out of a dozen onegu- "So I am debating on if I want to try this game or just troll..." as a player who has been absolutely shit and lazy as both mafia and town I'm well aware of the terrible impact such a player can have on a game. If they are not lynched quickly they become a huge distraction that cant particularly be read into cause they're shit and lazy. Mafia players can and have used the whole "hes so bad, there's no way hes mafia" meta plenty so if Onegu insists on being scummy then we should oblige him provided there isn't a better alternative. Onegu: Kill with acidic detergent Until someone can magically explain why Onegu and Hopeless deserve the benefit of the doubt, my vote will probally fall on them. Basically the people I would want to see lynched Onegu-hopeless (both are interchangeably useless to me) but yeah I think your just butthurt town, which is why I am voting for Onegu : P Can we just collectively agree to pussy out as town and vote for the most objectively useless player? Onegu, 2015 I think Yamato Ritoky plus maybe onegu/hopeless are scum. and I think the lynch onto you and slam is retarded and it seems like a super dumb lynch ethier way. at least we now know you have the ability to hit control f, wonder where that was all game when we were trying to find actual scum -_- Also the one qoute you did show STILL HAS ME WANTING TO LYNCH ONEGU If I am intending to lynch my buddy anyways, why I am I flip flopping instead of milking him for absolute godamm cred? Maybe its because I'm a townie whose trying to reavaluate his reads as he goes to ensure the best chance at catching scum? Nah, that would be crazy. Also your argument that I knew onegus alignment and thats why I town read ritoky is literally retarded ill rehash it here in all its n1 glory Ritoky's switch onto Onegu last second makes very little sense as scum, if Onegu is town and gets bussed last sec, Ritoky looks terrible. If Onegue is scum, he just helped kill his teamate 0_0 seems like a dumb and unnecessary risk when town is already fixated on slam. It's possible Ritoky was super confident Bh's lynch wouldn't go through, but then why bother at all? Just to distance himself from the slam lynch? Could backfire huge if Onegu actually did get lynched (would look like a last second buss off of Ritoky's buddy slam) It doesnt fucking matter what onegus alignment is, IT STILL LOOKS BAD ON RITOKY OR IS BAD FOR RITOKY. There is no pre flip asociation going on here, the only motive to vote onegu in such a dodgy situation is to lynch scum! tldr ritoky put lynching the guy he thought was most likely scum over his own reputation therefore he is fucking town. How is that so hard to wrap your tiny brain around? | ||

He saw that ritoky's action made more sense as town if Onegu is mafia AND if Onegu is town, so he gets a conclusion about ritoky. Is the argument that gumshoe is more likely to think about relational reads like that as mafia? Because I don't see that at all. And in the posts before the ones you quoted, he did say he wanted to kill Onegu (although I still don't get how that's relevant to the ritoky thing)? For the record, I read GB's case and I am completely unconvinced. gumshoe basically spent all D2 defending GB but knows that everyone in the game wants him gone (and he was wrong on yamato), and he's said multiple times that he's okay with lynching GB. His hesitance between GB and Onegu makes a lot of sense from him, and it's definitely not 100% by any stretch of the imagination. Honestly, if gumshoe is mafia and GB is town, he pretty easily could have kept his vote on GB after being so undecided about it. He literally wrote that he thought GB is mafia from tone and voted. Why not keep the vote there if he's town??? That's on top of the meta stuff I've said earlier and the fact that he's so so passionate about yamato mafia and GB town and the fact that he's been posting a lot of thoughts. btw vivax still thinks you might be scum. And I'd answer about Chrom if I got to it, he's still the guy I suspect to be the most capable mafia in here. I'm undecided , 2 paranoid. | ||

By the same notion, I don't care whether gumshoe deserves to win or lose: we shouldn't lynch him anyways. Why? Because he is town. I think that he was instrumental in the 1G lynch yesterday (though if both wagons were scum as I suspect it doesn't matter) and all game has been laying down solid analysis. He has been unafraid to interact with players, make posts and cases, and comment on other people's posts and cases.

Scum is among yamato/rayn/GB/Onegu/BH. Contributing to this game means finding out who the two townies are. fun fact, if we were to follow vivax's plan here and our reads are correct, that would mean town would win up mislynching exactly 4 times( gg) trying to find the magical two townies when really onegu was the only scum among them / : | ||

Course theres one other possibility, maybe mafia threw all their weight to save onegu? Wouldn't that mean chrom could be scum too vivax? also we should be lynching hopeless right now because hes more scummy than gb, whose actually put quite a bit of effort into this game / : we want to delay lylo as long as possible, because if the scummer is rayn tier than they'll have an easier time manipulating town if the stakes are higher. You all are so set on lynching gb right now, you haven't considered that if the scummer is skilled he can use that potential mislynch to sow doubt amongst us and perhaps cause us to shift from da plan / : (if your certain you wont break, are you sure about your fellows? Ritoky has already been to finfoil land, hes for sures town, whose to say it cant happen again?) tldr We should lynch the person with the highest chance of flipping scum right now, to avoid giving the remaining scum more of a chance, as it will only take one of us having doubts about whether or not we should bank the game on killing a lurker to turn the tides for maf. PS. If there's 2 scum among vivax, gb and hopeless, vivax and gb arent likely scum together (that would mean that gb, the only competent scummer on his team of hopeless and onegu, threw himself to the wolves day fucking 1.) That means between the three, hopeless is the only one that MUST be scum as he doesn't really clash with either of them. | ||

I don't know how you can still defend him, especially not from a random vote Hopeless threw down (lol). I'm fine lynching Hopeless today though, that's probably the "correct" move given that he probably literally isn't going to post today now that he's voted. I do agree with Vivax's desire to see whether the wagons were M-T or T-T, but in either case we should lynch Hopeless so I don't think it actually matters that much. GB just has to be lynched tomorrow. I've disagreed with almost all those reasons : P gb just doesn't strike me as the guy I've been playing against. Hes put too much effort into a game that could be easily as seen as lost from the get go. I just dont get how he thought he could win day 1 with a team of hopeless and onegu by playing such an agro style / : like, when I look at gb, I see someone who is just begging to be lynched constantly with his play(coming out with a case against me of all things yesterday -_-) but if your right about his team, hes not bieng an lightning rod for anyone, onegu and hopeless get lynched no matter what, so who is he tanking for? Whats more he IS playing the game, I think your a bit biased by his meta, from a totally neutral standpoint hes been very active and engaging, usually answering all questions directed at him. I just dont see it man, hes playing as if the game isn't lost , especially his big anti me post yesterday, why put in all that stupid effort just to flip and basically prove it all to be bullshit Hes making a post that will make absolutely no difference if he flips scum, so clearly he must think hes going to survive right? But if your right, his own two teamates were bussing him, and they never stopped bussing him 0_0 So gb puts a ton of effort into a case that wont make even make a ripple let alone a wave if he flips scum, on the off chance that town would save him while his own mates were bussing? I just dont buy it, I would expect something like Onegu's pity post any day, but not a whole frikin case that only matters on the off chance that I live when my own team has given up on me -_-. Meanwhile, we have onegu pleading, screaming wifom, and hopeless bending backwards to justify why his null read is his scum read and his should be scum read is a null read. and of course dont forgot Vivax's last second attempt to sway xata -_- Too much effort was put in by all our suspects for a lynch that supposedly didn't fucking matter 0_0 its just not consistent chrom, I checked vivax's games, hes fully capable of playing an active scum game like this / : you should check him out for yourself. | ||

GB fits that description just as well as Vivax or anyone else. Maybe you could characterize GB as having an "aggro style". but going after people and arguing with them is something that mafia can do and have to do. If you don't do anything in the thread, then you'll obviously get lynched. I can talk specifically with his post about you he made. Why is he more likely to put effort in there as town or as mafia? As mafia, he wants to seem like he's town by pushing to survive, and making posts like that is one of the ways he can seem town. In addition, he probably thinks that he can carry the game better than Onegu can, so he legitimately wants Onegu lynched over him. Putting "effort" in when you're about to be lynched is not a town tell; I would have put in a lot of effort in that position as mafia too. You said that I'm "biased" by his meta, but you don't explain why it's bias. The meta is a very legitimate point against GB. You're similarly using meta as a point against Vivax, but I found his meta pretty inconclusive for me. I did check it out for myself and made a post about it a while ago. He could be playing like this as mafia, but his meta doesn't show that he's more likely to be mafia. With GB, the meta does. For the bias aspect, I checked out gbs games, you only mentioned 6 of them but hes played at close to 30 -_- I checked the games where hes about to get lynched, when hes scum its more like "wow you guys are so bad for voting me" its all about protecting himself, but yesterday he was pretty much resigned to dying, and was more concerned with pushing a scum read before he died. Which is more in line with his town games I've found. Also your argument he was trying to convince town with effort is kinda bull, his own teamers were totally bussing him, it was as grim a situation as it gets, scum gb would spend his last moments yelling at town for thier incompetence, not trying to "solve" the game / : also out of the 7 scum games he played, only one of them has had as much activity as hes shown this game / : his push vs me was all caps and hyperbole. his filter is higher than his scum average his "last moments" are more in line with town gb all in all, his meta seems more in his favour than anything else / : but maybe thats just mah bias. | ||

If gb was scum with hopeless and onegu, why did he shoot rayn? Clearly onegu did it for cred a world where I am scum this game I dont kill Rayn, I am not going to kill the only person that is town reading me this game. It would be suicide for me. Killing rayn takes pressure off of the people he was scum reading and lets them put pressure on me. They want this mislynch on me it gets them to lylo. but he claims this looks bad on hopeless, | ||

Rayn scum reads Xata, and hopeless and then dies. Coincidence I think not. Anyway I am going to bed. We should lynch xata or hopeless toda according to his logic, it looks shit on Gb too, so who the fuck was the nk for? Onegu? Was the scum team really banking all their hope on him (clearly cause hopeless sided with gb on the vote)? Do you think Gb would endorse that? It's absolute bonkers -_- I dont get the vibe of defeated scum from gb, yet hes clearly sure hes going to get lynched fter I die, think twice before doing meta cases. Hint: they suck. Gut feelings say hopeless is town. Facts point out to him being mafia (him voting me like that today is bad). Ok, so it seems I'm dead today. Some thoughts for you: IF Onegu is mafia, gumshoe is always mafia with him. It should be pretty telling to you that gumshoe was strong townreading me, then decided to vote me to follow his townreads, but when I confronted him he decided to simply "Unvote" while still scumreading Onegu. Then he decided to vote me again over TONE LOL. Now he is voting Onegu, but just when the lynch is secured on me (he voted Onegu when I've reached majority with 5 votes). This is fucking scummy. hes done this twice -_- dumped a ton of effort into reads that dont matter if he flips scum, which he must assume will happen because his buddies have bussed him 2 days in a row. Hes more concerned with us taking him seriusly after hes dead than trying to stay alive. thats not scum | ||

Cause if it was MvM there's 1 mafia riding hard on lynch cred and you don't want to have to start considering that at lylo in the really scary case that hopeless flips town. I don't thibk hopeless is mafia... both vivax and gb assume hopeless has a decent shot of flipping town -_- that is to say, both the prime scum reads dont paticulalry want to lynch hopeless, so you know what we should probally do? Fucking lynch hopeless so we dont have to worry about spending our last lylo life on a lurker Also if your talking about lynching for info, lynching hopeless is way better for that / : as gb bieng scum with vivax is unlikely, so clearly hopeless must be the buddy of whoevers scum. If hopeless is town, thats the real bombshell it would force us to totally reevaluate, whereas a gb or vivax lynch would just have us staying the course. Tldr. 1 of the three scum is most likely scum, if somehow hes not scum hes the only flip that gives us reason to rethunk the game. ##vote hopeless | ||

Are you claiming to be scum with gb now? Please tell me how likely that is, please do.

I actually totally agree though, it is idiotic, which is why we should just lynch hopeless instead of digging into the tinfoil cause hopeless is just scum, | ||

Its a tiny little thing that has a good chance to improve your overall life, so why dont we? Why is only seventy percent voter turn out considered a good thing? Also why is higher voter turnouts considered bad for the people in power? Its because as a whole we dont act unless we have too, and we know our actions will make a difference. Thats why effort is townie, it's hard to bring yourself to write up massive cases that you know is bullshit, thats why scummers end games with 5 page filters while towners have 30. as for you argument hes was trying to convince us to spare him through effort. 1: the case was against me -_- the guy most likely to spare him, 2: it was pretty terrible. 3: not once this game has anyone been swayed by the pants on head logic, so there's was no reason to think it would work now. I dont see how gb thought he was going to live with his own teamates bussing him and by accusing his ally AND by having a shit argument. More likely? He just thought he was gonna flip town and blow the whole case wide open post mortem / : | ||

I've thought about what would happen if either player flipped either alignment, and I believe that the next lynch is always the other player. I want GB because knowing what the wagons are is nice, he's getting harder to lynch (especially if Hopeless is town and we go to LYLO), he's very likely to be mafia from play, and personal gratification. I want Hopeless because it feels incorrect to let him live another day without playing, and because he's very likely to be mafia just from his vote yesterday. Maybe this is getting to far ahead, but in the event that we lynched Hopeless today and he flipped mafia, I think it's pretty important that we lynch GB next and not at LYLO. That way, in the event that GB is town, we have maximum information at LYLO on the D3 wagons so we can determine what the most likely last mafia is. I guess this scenario is unlikely though because it's not LYLO if Hopeless is mafia so GB probably gets lynched. So I'm not sure if any of these reasons is better than the others. sure we can lynch gb tommorow, as I dont see vivax getting lynched till lylo(you want a slippery one, there ya go). But yeah, we need to kill hopeless today, gb and vivax arent scum together so hopeless must be. | ||

GB's kill would tell us about the wagons yesterday (which we don't get form Hopeless), so that we can start considering bus possibilities if GB was town? The only way lynching one of them before the other is a problem is if both of them are town. So, we should lynch whichever one will give us the best information to decide if the other one could be town. If GB is town, then we can start considering whether the team was stacked on him (with Hopeless) or if it's some crazy bus (even though we should lynch Hopeless next anyway). If Hopeless is town, then... I don't think we get very much about other from that? Lynching for information feels bad but I think it's the best tiebreaker? if we lynch gb and hes scum, we probally just lynch hopeless and then vivax the following day anyways, nothing really changes, if we lynch gb and hes town, same story, we dont alter course If we lynch hopeless and hes scum, again, we stay the course if we lynch hopeless and hes town, that means ethier way we have a complex bus between vivax and gb, or someone in the town circle is scum. Basically we have 4 outcomes, and only one of them has us changing course / : the only information that matters is the one you have to act on, therefore if you lynch for info, hopeless is the superior choice. | ||

Ritoky could also easily be mafia as a lurker, plus his thing following his towniest read and that read was BH. onegu was pushing ritoky constantly -_- seems dumb to spend the entire game bussing both your teamates also ritoky is the only real scum read hopeless ever pursued. ritoky had an early "textbook" mafia read of gumshoe (as per chromatically), gumshoe posted more, I wanted to know where ritoky's read ended up because he hadnt updated it and needed to be prompted a couple times.

I get that it makes him look townie, but there's a REASON it makes him look townie, and that's that it's a bad move for scum to make. It's not just a bus, it's a bus that basically took Onegu from not being lynched to be ing lynched, if you think this is what happened. nah your not getting vivax's argument / : vivax knows hes town 100 percent, therefore it doesnt matter how bad a play scum made, because hes not scum, therefore there must be scum who bussed (that or chrom and hopeless are scum together, but I think vivax has flip flopped enough for one game so no reason to invite that) | ||

He jumped on my yam train once it got going and he even tried to make a rayn mislynch happen until he realized a shot would be more effective considering his scum buddies were town reading rayn to the max. His stance of "I have no idea who scum is" basically translates to "I'm fine with any lynch so long as it's not me" which perfectly fits the scum agenda I would expect him to have with a team of onegu and hopeless. Speaking of which, it's not hard at all to find tons of awkward encounters between hopeless/vivax and vivax/onegu, as weve already pointed out time and time again. The final nail in the coffin is without a doubt his attempt to convince xata to switch his vote on day 3, plus his discontent post flip as point out by bh. His overall play this game, which has frequently led town in the wrong direction( going so far as to critique others for attacking onegu and hopeless on day 1) in conjunction with the above evidence leads to only one conclusion. Vivax is our final scummer, Lynch him and be merry as we savor frozen dairy!

----------------------------------------------------- 1: Every major stance I have taken this game has been, as far as I can tell, to the benefit of town, with the exception of the yam lynch which no one can blame me for cause that dude looked legit terrible / : day I: called for onegus head, decrying the slam rayn lynch as dumb and illconcieved(basically slam dared marv and things snowballed from there) would have jumped on the onegu shenayny train but was worried that people would use the split to hammer rayn, who I assumed would be of great use to town should he live (I was wrong and I was right about that, rayn was utterly worthless, but his death all but outed the scum team) night 1: As opposed to joining the rayn hate train, I kept a level head and used my history with him basically to come the conclusion that he was being a useless little bitch, but wasn't scum. Had just a few more reacted to rayn in anger, we may very well have lost this game, as town would literally not have survived both a rayn and gb mislynch. day 2: Yamato debacle, dude had to go, just be glad there were no more yamatos this game. night 2: I immediately bounced back from the mislynch and started to consider the scum team as a whole, basically the inception of the 4 man suspect pool that would define the back half of the game. day 3: Drew alot of information from the rayn shot that many disagreed with, but gave me personally the direction I needed to put together alot of different bits that resulted in the onegu lynch. night 3: sparred with gb, once again kept a level head despite townie stupidity, resorted to desperate measures to get him to cooperate. day 4: Made my opinion on hopeless known, but didn't shove it onto a town I knew to be reasonable. night 4: popo sees all. day 5: ez ez night 5: are we there yet? =------------------------------------------- point 2: As you may have already figured, I can explain every single stance I have taken this game, every. single. one. Please try me. ------------------------------------------- point 3: I did give Yamato a chance to convince me / : I had misgivings, and asked him questions at one point on day 1. He responded with "you bore me". Not sure how I was supposed to react other than pushing for his immediate removal from a game he clearly did not want to play. ------------------------------------------------------------------ point 4: there is no record of me bieng remotely this active as scum, but there are plenty of town examples. ------------------------------------------------------------------ point 5: I am town. --------------------------------------------------------- so with all that in mind, anyone wanna fight? | ||

Past days I felt really defeated by the last mafia cause he's playing so well and after pinging at gumshoe I started doubting I would be able to ping him at all, but today I passed my assessment with 8/9 pts and I'm going to at least TRY to kick the last mafia's ass after I'm done drinking with my fellow students. See you tomorrow for a maximum difficulty lylo fellas. BRING IT SCUM. YOU. ME. MOTHERFUKAN THUNDERDOME | ||

Why do you have to look at each other and comment on that? Cause I got no real slamdunk idea on who is scum right now and I need help from volunteers. I can't solve this game alone, I've been just feeling outplayed for days and I'm paranoid about all of you. the problem with this is its exactly what scum would want us to do in a strong position -_- kill ourselves. Townies have the power of ignorance, were in they can come up with bullshit cases that they know 100 percent are the truth, when in fact are just theories at best. Basically yeh, who know the honest gospel, cannot bring thyself to concoct bullshit in the face of nigh overwhelming fact, and hope that we of lesser knowing can do what you cannot. You call us biased, but the truth is your the one whose view point is fixed / : You see the situation so clearly, you cant actually concoct a case that makes sense, like a patron whose tasted such fine delights he no longer can bring himself to enjoy the flavor of based bacon, BACON. But your downfall shall be that we are now much the same, Afterall, what lies can sate men who have tasted a desired truth far beyond their most cherished fantasies? You rely on us cracking in the absence of absolute clarity, but it shall not be so chocolate man, it shall not, be so. | ||

At best the ritoky NK was weird cause he really quit playing the game altogether since the Onegu kill and all he did was keep spamming how confirmed he was. And besides I really wanted to lynch him so the NK felt to me like "nope, wrong again bro" and I just wanted to bite my own ass at that point. I don't even know where to start looking for the last mafia and I will do it tomorrow anyway, sober. One important point is that it's probably the guy who was most right and survived the longest, still. Bolded for importance. We're looking for someone who was more right and more townie than marv or rayn since the game started, probably included scum in his lists but always pursued somebody else until he had to vote them, and who has always been buddy buddy with the other two townies. I called hopeless/onegu day fucking 1. I was right about rayn, gb, xata, ritoky, marv slam, (Though I did go back and forth a bit on rit and chrom) and of course I am right about you. basically 'I wouldn't say I'm the best,' she said, 'but I can't think of anyone better, I have to say.' besides I've already locked you in for single combat so don't go dodging me mang : P | ||

He was indeed town jesus! Yet starting from these reads he kept changing them for strange reason and based on what others said. Now you can just compare reads to see if what gum was saying was truthful... GB and yamato Rngd and townread by Onegu, so gumshoe couldn't agree with it. Gumshoe himself falling under the 1gu rule and not ask him wtf that means, also agreeing with that. And Xatalos 100 % town, who was one of gum's initial scumreads. So I assume this was gum early bussing his really useless mafia partners, then changing his mind when rayn and marv pushed for the slam lynch and GB made his dumb push on me. The bolded makes no sense, as I came right around to lynching onegu to spare slam and rayn who I read as town, and I was defending gb -_- and wasnt even coming after you at the time. id get behind an onegu lynch to spare slam and rayn, also in these posts he calls hopeless and ritoky scum for super vauge reasons. Found this kinda townie when I saw it? more to do with my fantasy mafia team than anything else but the reads were so weak they might not actually count against it. as for onegu rule, I assumed it was the same as any stupid slam/coag rule that magically makes them unlychanble, I always find those kinds of things total bullshit and didn't bother asking at the time cause I didn't want to even acknowledge it thereby giving it any credit whatsoever. | ||

I don't know how many lylos you played but it's usually where you want to have different camps and not just one. For example we have 3 players right now, 1 mafia among them, and me being an uncontested lynch. We need an advocatus diaboli to make this two sided, cause the game isn't over and you should still go over it. I wouldn't even be writing all this if I weren't a mislynch. But little can I do if the 2 remaining townies and the mafia keep repeating how they won't change their mind. If you're good at this game and also know you can be wrong, you would have to help me make this a day where decisions are actually being made and not just followed through with. if your good you also know when to trust your strengths and accept the obvious. My strengths are town reads, not scum reads, my town reads on bh and chrom are some of the strongest I've ever had. I have an insane rate of accuracy whenever I defend someone in gb like fashion and bh/chrom rise above even that / : Also there actually is plenty of evidence against you, so those two put together basically eliminate all my doubts. I will continue to reflect everything back at you because I don't think we need two camps / : I think that's exactly what scum needs, so forgive me for not entertaining your proposal. question vivax, do you think the no shot was the best choice for today? | ||

I'd put you into the towniest spot tentatively, BH in the middle and gumshoe as the scummiest. That might change upon reread. It's an odd question since everyone agreed it was. It just makes it harder for everyone to figure out the last maf, so yes, it was the best choice. I understand it was super obvius for you that it would be a no shot, but wasnt really for anyone else Bh My initial thought remains "let's post our reads right before EoN" so that scum can't plan who to shoot for LYLO, but honestly our reads are already pretty much out there. I'll do the usual End of Night read post but I'm glad to discuss things with people before then. Chrom Huh. That's true. I guess we should just use this as extra discussion time. me in response to you. promise? basically, you say it was super obvious, but no one elses mind just went there like yours did / : but that's a low blow, what I am really getting at, is you knew mafia were taking weird shots. At best the ritoky NK was weird cause he really quit playing the game altogether since the Onegu kill and all he did was keep spamming how confirmed he was. And besides I really wanted to lynch him so the NK felt to me like "nope, wrong again bro" and I just wanted to bite my own ass at that point. so with the knoledge in hand that scum had been unpredictable with thier nks this game and also that a no nk was objectively the perfect choice, why did you out the best move so casually? After you say it, everyone's in agreement, its clearly optimal, if scum were going to take a shot before what you said, they most certainly weren't after. Did you not even consider the negative impact nonchalantly guiding a clearly erratic shooter would have? Your reads aren't just bad this game Vivax, your not at all concerned about the negative effects of your overall play, like your bitching after the yam flip. That yam flip really killed a lot of my motivation to play this game, he had two fucking days. It's a riddle to me why people actually sign up sometimes. you never should do this at town, it contributes to a gloom and doom outlook on the game that only benefits scum, its also an excuse for future shitty play which is exactly what scum love to cultivate. | ||

Why I think about this? Cause I think from town point of view. I know I'm the mislynch, I know that the last mafia just says the same stuff as the other two townies. Easy decision for mafia: Don't shoot anyone, keep 2 allies and a mislynch. Your gloom and doom point is irrelevant cause I play the game without many excuses really. I was just telling you how I felt. How do you feel after pushing a lynch on the wrong guy? I dont talk about how mediocre I'm going to be after/because of/a mislynch. also you dont exactly have a bunch of idiots here with you, we all have been pretty reasonable this game but none of us were quite as on your page right away about the nk, but clearly you had thought it through, so why didnt you even consider that maf was going to take a shot? Mafia have done ludicrous work with the nk this game, I would have never expected rayn or ritoky to die and neither did you, so was it not possible mafia WAS going to make things easier for us by making an nk? The fact that you didnt even consider that a possibility when you posted is my point / : no matter how unlikely it was, you may have been the one to put us into a slightly worse situation than we already were in if your town. | ||

I've been wrong at times (pushing yam over gb; though both were town anyways, and i did try to shenannie onto 1g, h1, and gb) but in general I think I've played a really really good game. I helped drive us towards the right set of lynches, kept wagons together on 1g, h1, and gb, and basically all game have been doing my best to figure out the game. I honestly am proud of how I played this game; this is one of the best town games I've played, definitely in 2015, possibly in years. I was wrong at times but i figured things out. If I seem complacent on this lynch it's because chrom and gumshoe can't possibly be scum, and if it seems like i'm not entertaining vivax' arguments, it's because they're really bad. he's clearly flailing looking for ANYONE to call scum and ANYTHING that can stick. I'm around though if you guys have Qs : D dont vote this guy, hes adorable. | ||

An advice I could make is that you were confirmation biased by the meta case. Like I've said before, sometimes you twisted the facts to fit them under your scum read on me instead of analysing them objectively. If there is a place to improve, it's in there. I think my mistake was letting you die / : I was fairly sure you were town, if I could have convinced the others maybe we might have lynched vivax instead, which might have given us a chance, but not sure how we could have swayed chrom / : and I'm not sure I personally would have ever gotten out of bh's pocket T_T | ||

You could've just stay on those if you had your scumread on us three. It didn't make much sense to me voting with your townreads when both the wagons were supposedly scum to everybody. Do you understand what I'm trying to say? wouldnt matter, I needed to prevent you from dying ever, if your on the chopping block doesnt matter when it'll happen, it'll happen. You had to be saved / : that's just one obvious thing I needed to do. | ||
