By the way, rayn, my heuristic isn't showing good signs with you so far. Then again, it's an unproven heuristic

VE could you elaborate on the thought process on your first three posts? You basically read the thread in a.... non-chronological order, yes?


I am not sure i can see where ritoky is coming from with his Trfel read. However i personally think this looks like Trfel's townplay for the simple reason that he focuses on finding townreads instead of scumreads -- i looked the last scumgame ritoky referred to (at least i think it was that game?) and what Trfel did there was, yes, aggressive, but it was basically a case on VE. I don't think Trfel's meta is that black and white (aggressive = mafia, which, unless i am mistaken ritoky is suggesting here). The last time i personally played with Trfel (when he was scum) he didn't play like in the game ritoky pointed out at all..

He seems to be the most involved person to get the game going and actually scumhunt, and that's why i think he is town. I don't even think "aggressive" is the right word here, "involved" would be more fitting. So yeah, Trfel is town.

ritoky please, elaborate this. I also think the associative read on DYH is... meh..


I don't think there is much anything to say about other people.

I think DYH's play is perfectly in range of his scumplay, and he hasn't really.. contributed much aside the Trfel read. Judging from his last coach QT he is a pretty good scumplayer and aware of his "meta" so i don't think Trfel's read is necessarily correct here, i just think the read tells more about Trfel than it does from DYH.

Ace, one thing. I know your scumplay looks pretty much like your townplay because you like... ugh.. how to put it.. don't necessarily care about "how you look". I mean you don't take part in discussions you find "not relevant" but i have to disagree here with you; It's also the reason you look "scummy" when you are town, people get paranoid because they thing you are withholding information (like already seen to be said in this game).

I don't think Cephiro's and Alot's posting makes them anything yet.


Btw yeah, I forgot to mention this one. It really doesn't make much sense that scum would name their teammate as their first townread. It makes even less sense to suspect them as a scumteam just because of that happening. Rather it should be the opposite, usually.

To be fair, I voted you just because of Palmar's funny post. And I voted for Ace because he seemed the least willing to put forth any useful effort. Maybe some votes could pressure him into doing stuff. If not, well... There could be worse lynches.

Referring to ritoky's post where he made the unflipped association case (and for a reason that wouldn't make it good even if it was flipped).

Ace seems to be putting in effort but you are voting for him so he would put in effort?


Hm? I said the opposite?

Scumlean ritoky, townlean trfel

ritoky's scumlean on trfel doesn't make much sense. He is ignoring trfel's townread on me post, which is trfel's meatiest one so far, which should put him outside of the column of players that "try to be funny, fit in, sound natural, or do nothing". He finds trfel's pushing questioning of him a townie thing, but frames it as either null or scummy because it isn't outside of what trfel could do as scum. Basically has argued trfel to a null unless i'm reading him wrong. So the only reason I see to mafia-lean trfel would be a gut read. But if it is a gut read, that is a lot of explanation. It would make more sense for rito to be scumleaning someone in his do nothing category since the contrast against that category is what makes cephiro town in his eyes.

Trfel is engaging multiple people, generating content, and pressing for answers.


That was after this post I think.

I don't see this aggressiveness you are describing. He joked around, gave a townread on me, and has been questioning people and defending against you. Are you basing this on his initial satirical case on me?

Well, I think there's a decent potential scum motivation though. If one of them is scum and lynched, you have an excuse to go for the other one. If they're both town, you can just push them together for that reasoning. If one flips town, you lose credibility, too bad, but it's good just to have an excuse to go for them both like that?

I was just saying that ritoky's association between them didn't make sense because the scumteam rarely hard townread/defend each other right at the start.

If there's anything to be said for sure out of this, it's that the scumteam is definitely not Trfel+ritoky+DYH haha...

Okay so you were talking about Trfel and DYH there. I somehow thought you were talking about ritoky.

I disagree with you. I don't think it's likely at all ritoky does that as mafia.


Could you explain? I don't really follow either of those points :/ Sadly.

To be fair I think it was just an associative read though? And it's not like there weren't any benefits to be had by saying that as scum... Like I mentioned in my previous post... The question becomes, is it better to stay silent or say that as scum? I don't think the answer is clear.

I guess so...

VE: I also didn't really like the things ritoky was pushing. It was just the way he posted that made me think he could be town after all. He was so bold and didn't really seem to care what others thought of him. Fits better with a town mindset.

Howdy rayn,

I rolled town, how about you?
Why does he only care about raynpelikoneet?

There is no town motivation for this post, because as town, DoYouHas needs to figure out the alignment of everyone else in the game. This post is filled with mafia motivation, as it is a clear attempt to buddy with raynpelikoneet.

Gotta say, it was a bit of a relief. Rolling scum after spending all last newbie game explaining exactly how I like to play as mafia to a bunch of people had me worried.
And then he responds with self meta, completely unprompted? He's completely ignoring the rest of the thread, and doesn't even care about raynpelikoneet's response.

One down, two to go

This is......................not enough for me. I want alot more substance.

DoYouHas' posting has felt very relaxed and natural this game, while at the same time being eager to start finding mafia. Both of these make me feel that DoYouHas is town, especially combined.

Example of his relaxed tone:

Glad to know that I can put you out of your misery


Bring it on, we need a little friction to get this thread moving.
On January 14 2016 09:11 DoYouHas wrote:
Do you have experience with people claiming town on their first post being untrustworthy? Or maybe you were offended that I talked to rayn when you were the first post?


And yes, this time I'm serious.

I need to head out now. I might be back later this evening, but I may not be back until tomorrow morning.

wtf -.-

Fine I'll read the whole thread and THEN post.

Now i am assuming you read the thread and however much (or few) attention you paid to the thread at that time you commented on posts you found interesting. So first is the Trfel's "scumread" on DYH. The problem i have here is that Palmar's post you quoted happened after the Trfel's townread post on DYH.

Now it is natural that you comment on it, and it makes sense, what doesn't make sense is why you skip that post at first and comment on Palmar's post - - and only then come back to comment on it?


Is that really even suspicious? I often comment first on something that I found most interesting or urgent, then come back to some earlier post.

This describes ritoky as either alignment as far as I'm aware.
