next steps for me is to look at games where trfel and breshke overlapped and trfel and ve (since he put up a case on ve and we know ve was town now) and see what expectations should be upheld btw.

TRFEL IS MOST LIKELY MAFIA - HERE IS WHY

Part 1 of 3: Trfel's expectation on Scott
posted previously - link below with previous questions
part 1: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/497023-newbie-student-mafia-xvii-fullmetal-edition?page=60#1198
geript's initial callout: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/497023-newbie-student-mafia-xvii-fullmetal-edition?page=60#1195

Part 2 of 3: Trfel's case on VisceraEyes - misinformed or malicious

Trfel - 18 games, 3 as scum, 1 as third party
VisceraEyes - 80 games (holy fuck mate you are an addict), 18 as scum, 5 as third party

next step - games where trfel and viscera overlap

(1) TL Mafia LXX: Guardians of the Galaxy
(2) Aperture 4: This Time It's Personal
(3) Assassination Mafia
(4) Tropical Storm Mini Mafia - Trfel was mafia
(5) Gaiden 2 - Trfel was mason, VE was mafia

now, tbf, only problem here, case wasn't based on meta. ritoky and geript both had ve as town. at least one of them said ve isn't the most towny player in the world.

did trfel take advantage of that?
should he have known better that ve isn't a towny player?

5 games with VE, 4 of those with the relevant alignment for VE. should he have known better than to jump on VE? 5 games is a decent chock of experience. Gut reaction, I'm going to say yes here.


questions for veterans

(1) does VE as town get mislynched a lot?
(2) is he a common target for mafia players to push?
(3) based on what ritoky/geript said earlier my initial guess is yes. but if you have more information, it would help me a lot here as a newb


if nothing else, the data is conclusive that VE is a mafia addict. someone get him a referral to mafiaholics counselling centre please.

but right now? if meta expectations hold and given that trfel has used meta at least once on geript this game (that post where he said "geript should know X" remember that?)....it's not looking good for trfel.

part 3 of 3: Trfel's defence of Breshke - does it make sense?

Trfel - 18 games, 3 as scum, 1 as third party
Breshke - 20 games, 2 as scum

next step - games where trfel and breshke were scum and town
Trfel was not present in games where Breshke was scum.
Games present together where Breshke was town
(1) Student Mafia IV
(2) TL Mafia LXX: Guardians of the Galaxy
(3) Noir Mini Mafia
(4) Newbie Student Mafia VII
(5) TL Mafia LXXI: Gaiden

5 games with Breshke when Breshke was town. That's enough information I feel to realise that Breshke if town here, could be falling below town expectations.

MAFIA PLAY/AGENDA ALERT - he implicated that for scott for a scum meta, so the data is here, why not for Breshke? he said "geript should know X", why not "Breshke should do X"????

so at the very least geript's statement regarding misrepresentation of of Breshke's reads could be valid.

Overall Conclusion: I think between the numbers alone on here, likely meta expectations, his casing of VE to be incorrect (with possible mafia expectations versus what he should know already on VE), his push on geript based on "geript should know X", if Farah/Damdred is vet and the proceedings against, or as others have put it trying to push an uncounterclaimed blue, NK/WIFOM analysis if geript was the nightkill, there's a better than decent chance Trfel is scum. [/b]

like I'm not doing bloody meta reads folks. I'm trying to answer objective questions on expectations because geript threw meta expectations out. his alignment and the database game numbers support this. I hope you understand me. If not I can break it down another way.

unless the database is fucked you can't argue with these.

questions? comments?

I think we have a Trfel/Breshke/+1 mafia team.

I think someone is looking enough town just enough to fool us, and I think it might be Trfel.

next steps - did Trfel and Breshke interact with each other in thread?

I'm not vig and I am responding to disformation right now fyi.

the issue is that trfel could be working on a mafia agenda which I want people to discuss, I have a second post coming up. the big question is why he prioritised scott over breshke.

it's a double standard. he takes one game to explain that breshke doesn't have a towny game which I can agree with. but scott has 11 games as town, 7 games where he's mislynched and 3 of those games mislynched as day 1. IDK. you don't have to read filters to understand that scott doesn't have a towny game either.

the thing is scum play to survive. I realise why trfel said breshke has a towny followup, but was it really scum like for geript saving scott when he had the justification to do so? (or was it understandable in his own view for trfel to say that geript was scummy for trying to save scott?)

Part 1 of 3: Trfel's expectation on Scott


The link to geripts initial callout leads to another of your posts? And while we are at it: what is the so-called WIFOM/NK analysis? Can you explain, or at least post a link?


geript's original posts were quoted in my post. If you want to see geript's original post it's post 918 and 925, it's quoted inside what I posted.

the wifom/nk analysis I refer to is from newbie 14

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/493411-newbie-student-mafia-xiv-firefly?page=176#3506

As a sidenote, HTS is right about the Slam NK (fidei, this is for you). It doesn't make much sense for anyone to NK slam, however it makes much less sense for either Slam or scott to NK one another and then try to convince one of the most townread to lynch one of the other most townread over them. Simply put, they are very unlikely to do that as it makes it almost impossible for them to win. The WIFOM isn't worth the struggle.

That NK meant someone in a stronger position: you or Moosy. The way Moosy started D6 with his constantly changing story and endless missteps also might have been a clue. But he played well and you shouldn't feel bad for missing this.

Another thing to note...there were times where Moosy did something I've seen recently from scum!ruxxar as well...namely scumreading someone by lecturing them on how a good townie should play. It's an odd mindset for town to have. Town usually says "I think x is scum for y, and if they're town they're awful for doing this." It was reversed for the newbie scum. "Good town should do x and since you didn't I think you're scum." <- see the difference in the mindset?


what this basically means is that geript was pushing Breshke and Trfel and will make it hard for them to win if they are scum. yes it's wifom, no it's not fully definitive but it's something to consider.

Yeah, he was wrong on VE. But I have 0 clue as to how to figure out if he should have known better or not. You could play 100 games with sicklucker and still don't know how to read him.
I have like 0 experience with VE, so I have no clue how hard/easy he is to read.


this is why I asked the questions I did for the veterans. scott has already demonstrated one case of where trfel can put a case together and get people lynched. so it's a caveat in his play.

Can you link that for me? I went through trfel's filter with a Strg+F on "geript" but wasn't able to find that. Wasn't he saying scott should now better about geript and that makes scott mafia?


On November 18 2015 04:21 Trfel wrote:
Wait, what the heck?

This push onto Breshke is so mafia-motivated. I don't trust geript at all here.

Look at scott31337's townread of geript. He just says that geript is a top town.

Notice that he repeatedly says "Trfel could be scum or he could be town" in response to me solving the game and pushing my ideas.

He never describes any difference between me and geript, just uses the fact that I had one good game as scum to avoid townreading me. But geript is better than me at mafia, by far, and scott31337 knows this. It's impossible for him not to know that geript is extremely skilled as mafia.

So now geript comes up with this push out of nowhere to prevent scott31337 from being lynched?

I don't like this one bit.


That came from the geript is better than me at mafia, but even then this is a double standard because he's using a fear read (basically fearing geript as mafia) and holding scott to that standard and then using the same sentence to say that scott, in fearing trfel as mafia was unreasonable to do so. "scott should have known X" is still just as bad.

the problem is, is that he's cherry picking because scott saw a townread in VE from geript that also resonated with him.

the problem is that Trfel is saying "scott should have known" which isn't necessarily a reasonable assumption. from this scott at least took into consideration geript was possibly running mafia play:

I'm here and catching up

From the games I've observed of VE - this is fairly spot on - He also shows a lot more emotion/caps/etc as town. From geript's first message I thought it could be a pocket, but I'm going to slight townlean/not lynching on both of them for now.

I've read Trfel's "case" twice and I'm still not seeing it -

If you want me to explain, the logic of closing your eyes and finding a town less than an hour to d1 by just pointing means statistically you have a higher chance of finding town by being random. By that same logic, snap voting this early on D1 means it has a higher chance of landing on town.

Farrah why do you think the game is boring less than an hour after it started? That feels pretty ñonsensical. Things have to happen for it to be exciting, or boring. Deciding its boring on the 3rd post of the game is pretty weird.

And AS I said, it wasn't a random snap vote. It's a vote placed with reason. You may or may not agree with the reason, that's your prerogative and should affect whether or not you place your vote. Not mine. <3

Furthermore, Eversince's post on FarahBlackwing has a very large logical flaw, in that The Shining hadn't posted at the time. Eversince is comparing a townread based on actual posts to a vote with zero reason from this game, which does not work. VisceraEyes knows much better than this.

This isn't VisceraEyes pushing The Shining, this is VisceraEyes reading incorrectly and flailing wildly at The Shining with words that don't match his stance.



I'm really not sure what to make of this - and it was coincidentally after geript's "do something or you die post".... mmm

I'll see if this is explained more farther down in the thread.

and right now I'm running on the assumption that geript was the night kill but I can understand the caveat. here's the question, was VE really pushing anyone or a threat to anyone? and I can't see who would vig shoot geript. don't know.

like to sum up, from what scott was saying, trfel apparently won newbie 11 because his cases on people were scummy. the thing is that he looks town in making the points that he has done.

to be fair people didn't have appropriate responses to him and even I asked geript to separate bad Trfel from mafia Trfel.

when you add that up with his willingness to lynch farah - there was a point where I stopped myself as much as it pissed me off because mechanically we can afford to wait one cycle and then resolve, he still insisted on lynching her instead of finding the other two mafia, it makes me quite nervous.

still I think it's valid to discuss this one way or another. realise others are grappling with reasoning to lynch trfel (ritoky/fecalfeast)

but if we decide eversince could be vig, then go with breshke for the lynch.

Disfo you get half a town point just for being the only one to mention that post tbh. I'm not gonna quote it and stretch the thread out but this is in response to 1072.

First point. Right I dont want to but I did anyway cuz I felt it necessary to point out. Yolo. And considering ES was one of the only players I had directly interacted with, it would make sense that she was the read I was most sure of.

No I didn't miss that post and I won't go into wifom territory on whether scum ritoky would do that or not. The point I was trying to make is that he himself claimed he tried to get a switch. But he can't really say he did that when that Scott post and his switch were all at the last possible minute. It just looked like he said that to make himself look good.

Skipping the fair enough.

I agree with you there. But if Moosy is in fact town, then I'm more inclined to think the early voters that never moved are more likely scum than the vote switchers. Like if town is getting lynched regardless, scum has no motivation to move back and forth a bunch of times.

So you think Farrah is scum then? I believe someone asked you before to show when and where your null read on her became scum. Can you do that now? What do you think of her blue claim?

Yeah I'll get around to Trfel soon.

I dislike ritoky for seeing what I see in ES then scumming me and asking why anyone TRs me for it. And misrepresenting himself as someone who tried to get ppl off Scott when there wasn't enough time for that to even happen. And I was finding him suspicious enough to revisit my townread on him. I'm not saying he's a full blown scumread but I do have question marks now.


not sure if above is fully true, trying to grasp wagons and thread sentiment is hard...tried to map timing of votes to the tracker below....

Trfel's vote on scott31337 was five hours prior to lynch.

Shining's reads are back and forth on ritoky but I'm hoping there's some pickup today because I'm not terribly sure where he stands on people now. Last page of filter not saying much.

Did Breshke have an actual "good" reason to vote Moosy? curious.

the vote counter map....well we know Breshke voted early but previously discussed timezones could have fucked him over, but reason for Moosy at the time was.....?

Fecalfeast COULD be problematic....18 hours between first and final vote.
ritoky voted shining early but read was supported and went to bed, probably not mafia based on this.

Eversince isolated vote....no idea.

I'd say of all these votes, Trfel, Fecalfeast and Breshke look the worst based on timing of votes, reads I'd have to double check the latter two but....

Breshke's timing of the vote is NAI based on timezone but it was his first and only vote (the fact he didn't vote ve as he was pushing) but I don't recall the reason to take out moosy as being that great.

so Shining Breshke and Trfel didn't switch at all, the last two voted "early" relative to the wagons.

long gap between the Fecalfast votes.

Breshke also voted when the votes were pretty piled up on MoosyDoosy, that also looks pretty bad for him I think.

I've been posting more analysis than anyone, making more cases than everyone else combined. I've pushed my suspicions to the best of my ability as well.

Just because I was wrong does NOT change the amount of effort that I've put into this game or how invested I've been in this game.

The fact that you can even think of simplifying my play to a defense of Breshke is unbelievable.

I have an exam tomorrow morning. I found one mafia. I gave a POE list with my reads (yes, the people not on the list have good reason to be town). That means that unless I messed up, there are two mafia in the other three. I'll go worry about my exam now, we can worry about the other mafia later.

No, he makes a good point. You're pointing fingers at basically everyone EXCEPT for Breshke which is highly suspicious.


I tried to outline this agenda earlier but he said the reasons were crappy. It's not his arguments I have a problem with, it's his agenda.

The question about all I'm doing is defending Breshke?

All I'm doing is trying to lynch scum. All I've done is try to lynch scum. If people are going to be stupid and lynch someone for no reason instead of scum, then I'll tell them why their reasons are stupid.


Trfel my biggest issue with you is you aren't considering why people's reasons are changing.

(1) Breshke's posting not since 24 hours - I have been told in the past that scum tend to fall off. In theory when lynch options close off it gets harder for them to come up with scumreads
(2) Play has not been consistent and you've been treating it as if it has been consistent. Namely I thought his play day 1 was towny, and the pushes that we described for day 1 are lacking for day 2 and the particulars of his engagement day 2 are more scummy than they were day 1. It isn't "towny enough" or whatever descriptors you use for day 2.
(3) There are 1-2 observations in the voting analysis that don't make Breshke (and possibly others) look very good either. For starters, he only voted once - why didn't he take a stand or a vote earlier? Why not VE? Why not whoever he was pushing earlier?

Like why aren't you asking those questions? And these are pretty damn good reasons to lynch him.

The issue with you "pushing scum" is that if you are mafia - and this is what I was taught in my mafia game newbie 13 - you can just get in a mindset enough (I think that is how glowbing bear put it) to be towny.

From the database you have had enough experience as scum to at least realise this.

Like right now you are talking around Fecalfeast.

I will ask you the same thing I asked VE earlier this game....

Why didn't you just directly query him if you had issues with him?

I am pretty sure you two were in the thread at the same time. Like your approach to Fecalfeast, I think he even responded something like "congrats you made a case on town" and you didn't even bother to ask him about his reads.

The other thing is that you are framing that case without considering any possible towny behaviour. Like I said earlier he's being obvious about being lazy and doesn't seem to give much of a shit and unless there's a meta that this game is screaming about Fecalfeast like it was done VE, and for him it doesn't appear to be the case, then at least you have to consider that his not giving a shit from time to time would go against scum play.

Obviously there's a PoE factor that comes into play and if he's still alive in mylo or whatever then it can be another story. But do you really think he's highest likeliness to be scum?

But now?

I'm not buying your line of play.

Damdred I'm not the most experienced player in the world, but I can see why you are saying everyone voting him makes you nervous.

I am more than happy to start a second legitimate wagon on Trfel to be quite honest.

3) I don't think trfel and breshke are together and I think trfel is mafia. I say this primarily because of setup. It is a set-up with only a 50% chance of having investigative power and a guaranteed GF. This means that distancing and busing are more optimal than hard defense and aligning; and trfel has been REALLY defending breshke (like since p1 of his filter defending) pretty much all game. I think both trfel and breshke are good enough players to recognize that about the setup and I sincerely doubt that trfel hard defends his partner so early. Probably a case of mafia trying to pocket town.

imo lynch pool right now should be something like:
trfel - reasons above
ever - already said why
ff - hasn't shit town rainbow yet, disengaged
shining - same as before + extra dropoff + not scum hunting.


no I don't think this makes you mafia, but I do not understand the setup speculation and the correspondence to mafia strategy that you are explaining here. don't scum team already know the setup?

I think Trfel and Breshke are mafia for separate reasons.

Shining's voting (when and how) is somewhat suspicious as I previously posted but I need to look at bit closer at what he's posting, because when you are posting so infrequently it's hard to tell if he's rolling with thread sentiment or....

actually, you know what.....fuck it.

##unvote
##vote Trfel


I am pretty sure they are both mafia, we have a claimed veteran right? I wonder if scum might have a stake however small to protect their roleblocker so they can off the veteran in one shot? especially for someone so towny like Damdred in the most likely scenario that Farah's claim was true.
