Used Koshies (cop) previous target list to exonorate himself and look like 100% town. Tbh it was a really nice play that we should have seen through but hey hindsight is 20/20. I just don't know if it is dumb to lynch someone based on being salty. | ||

You can ask his opinions befroe he goes away try to spark some activity but voting because he doesnt contribute cuz cba is weak. It feels like you are also sceptical of Grac, I don't know if I will be able to trust him. Also I think he is playing similar to last game so far. I don't know if that is good or bad. The big difference is that he is contributing "more" atm so that should indicate he is towny? | ||

I don't know how you came to that conclusion but since he is being replaced can you please elaborate on this read. Also this is a good way to get town cred now that he is getting replaced. | ||

Your first posts really didn't put you in a good position becauset they were a super lame buss attempt on a "policy lynch" (however I don't think many would disagree on it), I would consider this was more of a towny mistake than anything but if I was town I wouldn't go back on what I said like that without an explination something like: "hey I messed that one up and thought he was super annoying". No intead you were like "Hi I'm town". It's like your just trying to hide what you previously stated. I would definatly not have a problem lynching you for your posting behaviour tbh. | ||

If you feel like you have such a good feel in his playstyle after 1 game and can meta read him based off of that 24h into a new game please inform us. That's what I did I must say I think he played brilliantly last game so of course I put him under the spotlight. I think he is probably town since it feels like he's intention is to solve the game atm. But he already fooled me once so we will have to wait and see I suppose. | ||

Thank you, but be careful. Make sure you're reading through what I've said and check that my train of thought makes sense to you before you townread me for it. I won't say its 'easy' (because that damn thing took between one to two hours to write) but its a very 'simple' thing for a scum to simply write a huge post and then hide behind it. Trust nobody until you've decided they're town from what they've actually said, not just from posting a lot of stuff that reads nicely. I'll be asking myself some very searching questions later on, believe me. (Kudos to whoever gets that reference.) Here's a useful summary of bussing: http://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=Bussing I think you might be thinking of bandwagonning? Fair enough, I thought it might be something like that. Yes I like that you remain "skeptical" and it is true that it was pretty late when I read your post where I am. But I can't see anyone being mafia doing a post like that. At least not compared to the other players atm. I had a hard time seeing Bannon being mafia also because of the spamming but that is irrelevant now though. | ||

Also I'd much rather lynch someone who isn't typing anything at all than someone who is trying to contribute towards solving the game. The silent mafia is always the worst. He had plenty of time to do one post. The players posting are more likely to make a mistake the more they post. And this "save him he might help us later is just a bunch of crap". | ||

However, I've actually posted some pretty good points on Lunatic. The only post I've liked from Luna so far is his Kelsier post where he seemed really confident that Kelsier was mafia. Also I said early that I would try to post less to appease some of the other players. If you are going that route we should lynch rels. | ||

I think it is safe to say that most of the accusations yesterday was probably Town versus Town (at least of the players being tossed around for a lynch while I was asleep). First I'm going to post a list on my current read on the players (I can elaborate on them if asked). And it is safe to assume at least one mafia was on the train on Mderg. And one mafia was probably not on it. Town: Lunaticman Mderg Town-reads: Celestial Scott Skynx Nullreads/unsure: MoosyDoosy silentwarrior J Roc Stutter BeenThereDoneThat Scummy: KelsierSC Grac Mafia: Rels First of all Rels joins the game way to late to actually consolidate town in any meaningful way. And he only does it after being called out on it (modkill warning?). And he starts a train with conviction anyway and simply points out three/four players based on nothing: Scum team is very likely to be in this pool: mderg Celestial / KSC / Stutters BTDT You then explain why Mderg is scum and I have to agree most of your points are valid but it feels contrived when you do this post: Yep this is the lynch. All aboard the mderg express. You have to be seated before the departure. Scummates traveling with mderg are not allowed in And then you welcome Grac aboard, like it is the only available lynch target. Grac is more than happy to follow your read and happily join. I feel like there has to be one mafia between the two of you and it feels like you are playing way to similar to last game. It can be that one of you wree trying to protect one of the lynch targets in scott/Mderg. I don't think both of you are mafia though. I also feel that Moosys modkill warning was really wierd, it might be he simply forgot to vote but it is still strange. I am not impressed with Kelsier contributions to town atm, it doesn't feel like he trying to solve the game. It is like he doesn't care and just coasting through the day, I expect him to do a lot of work day 2. The same thing applies to BeenThere but I feel he has done more for town. I don't like how Grac was sheeping Rels. I find it hard to think that both Grac and Rels would make such a mistake but it is not impossible. I would think Rels is more probable out of the two. Grac has way more activity this game and feels towny to me based on it. But some of his thoughts doesn't make sense to me. Ill have to reread his filter. | ||

On August 02 2016 20:46 Skynx wrote: Man why 1 thing you say doesn't match the other one in a regular basis? You assign Grack to Rels, mention previous game and gracks willingness to jump on the train. You then put grack in same line as KSC? You say btdt has done more for town compared to KSC so he's null and KSC's low tier scum? KSC's entire activity consists of a lazy vote on Race/Scott, I dunno how that is not null and btdt is. I also dunno how you assign Celestial as top tier town and not Moosy/Stutters cuz they did everything together post flip. Stutters/Celestial were even working together pre-flip. Moosy's warning is as per game rules, please read them. Voting is the most important thing here. At first I put both KSC and BTDT in the same category but when I read their filters BTDT did way more to solve the game, so I "uppgraded" him. KSC filter is really really bad, it does not contain anything useful at all. The reason for where I put Grac is that he has posted a lot more constructive this game compared to last game and before I went to sleep I had him as towny. I did not like his sheep vote from Rels at all and when I compared them I think Rels is more likely to be mafia between the two. Townies are prone to make more "honest" mistakes and I think Rels has to take responsibility for the misslynch, I don't feel I have as good a read on either Moosy or Stutters yet to place them in my town list. They are however more towny than null but I'm not certain. I think I will reread their filters after day 2 and make a decision after that. This might sound cliche but Celestials filter is what I consider to be the perfect towny. I also don't think any mafia would put that much effort into solving the game that early and just trying to move the thread forward when it was basically dying. Atm I see no reason to change my mind regarding cele. Also scott is not mafia because of how bannon was playing. I don't buy that he would do that spam as either alignment. | ||

There should have been a Mafia on Race Bannon because he was too easy a chance to kill especially when we look at the list of people voting for him: KSC mderg Stutters btdt J Roc KSC is null-town for me right now, mderg flipped town, and Stutters is fairly town. That leaves us with btdt and J Roc and btdt is the more likely. Especially considering he had such shit reason to vote Race Bannon in the first place because he tried to make up a reason to show RB as scummy when the spammy stuff RB was doing was completely NAI. If you look at the final votecount, you see that Grack/silent were on every possible wagon except for the btdt one as well. I'm pretty sure the team is btdt/Grack/silent. I want you to tell me why we shouldn't just lynch Rels though. There has to be a mafia between Rels/Grac? They actually did a misslynch, The Bannon train so far to my knowledge is just speculation right? | ||

Well the way he went about the lynch is what I'm having a hard time to accept. There already were a few lynches in motion and he just rides in on the wind late and goes balls to the walls lets get Mderg. it seemed contrived. I also don't like how fast that wagon formed from the other lynches being talked about. It felt like he was basically trying to save someone rather than lynching a mafia. | ||

Briefly, I'm suprised the way the entire town is tunneling. Also this game is kinda sad, there is really a lack of activity. I don't really think lynching someone for not making sense is way to harsh until we get a red flip. I will just say that I am more of a emotional player. Logic doesn't really make sense until the endgame for me. It is because I played so much irl. | ||

On July 31 2016 19:39 silentwarrior wrote: Hi guys, this is my second game on TL. I play mostly irl mafia, but wanted to try this again, first game ended too quick. Ok, so about Race Bannon. He posted a lot in the beginning when not many else did, which is good as it helps town discussion. Granted, most of it was nonsense but he is atleast posting. Don't think he should continue with it later though. But what I wanted to focus on was KelsierSC So, his first post he says that this is stupid and is gonna not post anything until the evening when something "reasonable" has been posted. But why not post yourself? Maybe say something reasonable yourself. Going away for hours without posting does not help us. Then this, where he votes for Race Bannon (which is not what I have a problem with), but then states "See you all in a few days". Again, stating his intention to not post. I think not wanting to post and waiting for others seems like something scum would do. ##vote Kelsier SC I think it is kinda funny how you claim to be the perfect mafia hunter, but when you look at your filter its full of crap shoots: Ok, so thought I should give you my general reads on everyone and also a little to clarify my position on Kelsier. Stutters695: I'm pretty sure stutters is mafia. He begins with basically calling out Race and wanting to lynch him. A little too easy tbh, but still nothing suspect about that since Race was spamming hard at that point. But then, basically the only thing he does is ask others opinions and adding nothing himself. He then says he would prefer to lynch a lurker, and if not a lurker then grack, for which his reasoning is only 2 sentences. Then goes on to agree with other people and asking questions adding nothing himself. But then, contrary to his position before on lynching a lurker, minutes after celestial votes for me he places his vote on me as well. At this point he hasn't said a word about me at all and the only thing he says about the vote is "this guy gets it" about celestials vote on me. He basically only votes for me because celestials does. That's what it looks like, because he gave no indication that he thought I was mafia before. Certainly not enough to warrant a vote on me. You guys should really take a look at his filter. Kelsier: I don't know what to think about him anymore. My first post about him was partly to get him to actually post more so I could get a better read on him. At that time, he didn't want to post because there wasn't anything "good" in thread yet. But then, when thread gets some content he comes in and basically says this game is "terrible" and still won't post anything at all about his views about the game. What possible reason was there to not post then? Or after, because he still hasn't said anthing for a while. Right now I'm leaning scum on him. Celestial: I liked his big post. I obviously disagree with him about me but his post definetly shows that he is out to analyze us and hunt mafia. I agree with him on some stuff there. But I think he confuses opinions he dosen't like being equal to mafia. He does this to me, since his main reason against me is that he disagrees with me and that is the reason he votes to lynch me. He also gives people towncred for being against me for the same reason. I'm still leaning town on him though. Scott/Race: On Race actions, I admit I was wrong. I thought it was just early game posting to get people to talk. But he was just a spammer. On scott however I think he is town. His entry post to me seems very town-like. He immedietly accuses 4 people of scum. To me, mafia are more careful and I can't see them coming in and doing that during first posts. Granted, you can fake being careless, but what reason would mafia have to get on 4 people's bad side for calling them mafia? He is townlean for me. beentheredonethat: This guy seems like a newbie to me. People have mentioned his post about lynching Race before replacement, but I don't think it was really that alignment indictive honestly. He seems generally a little clumsy in his posts. His vote on Lunatic didn't have that much content. Mostly it was meta and the fact that lunatic wasn't pushing anyone. He is null to me right now. I will post more about the rest of the players too, but wanted to get this out here first. ##Unvote ##Vote: Stutters695 Like nothing about these two posts made any sense and are misslynches. How can we even trust you? | ||

Personally I'd rather lynch Lunatic then you. But I'll probably have another look at Rels' argument for reading you town in the next few days. Got plenty of time because we got the rest of this night, then all of D3. Then N3 and only then do we have to actually start deciding where to go next (because we're lynching Lunatic tomorrow, full stop). Is it my fault that KSC played like an idiot. I was doing what I thought was best for town. He even claimed when told not to by the majority of the players. It almost felt like he was trying to get the vigilante to shoot him. | ||

If Rels wasn't killed and flipped blue I would honestly have thought that there was another blue role out there. A person can CC someone if you think they are mafia to begin with. I've done it many times. Often this leaves the real blue alive too. | ||

After that play you're not getting anything but scumread especially considering said play wiped out the last mislynch chance we had and killed an actual blue. There is probably somewhere south of a 1% chance of you actually being town here. And that's being VERY generous. You're an auto-target at this point. On a side note I'd like to point out that scott is still nowhere to be seen. With a filter consisting of literally of around two dozen posts in the entire game. And in the last eight posts he's said no less than three times he is going to give some reads or be around for discussion or whatever. And then just hasn't. After which he made two posts, which are frankly stretching the definition of "discuss". One going "nice find" to the vote-count thing Moosy led me to. The other asking Rels if he's "run out of energy". Then: This was the car accident post. So its a bit more understandable that he doesn't follow up on this when he said he would. Then a post about how he's skimmed the thread and will leave a vote. Then: That was twenty hours ago, so rapidly approaching a full day, with no follow up. Not even a "whoops I didn't get time". I'd like to reiterate that scott is doing literally jack all, his earlier posts are questionable at BEST, and despite all of that people are heavily townreading him for that and some vote indicators. But I've been banging this drum for a while now and a bunch of people are flat out ignoring it, yet are apparently totally unable to explain it away. Wake the hell up, everyone. What if I told you I am that 1%. I just told you why. At least you could give me the curtious call to read my answer. I know I have failed you but at least give me one more try. | ||

Yesterday, August 5th, 2016 -- a date which will live in infamy -- the United States of Newbie Student Mafia XXII was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Mafia. The United States of Township was at peace with that nation and, at the solicitation of Mafa, was still in conversation with its government and its emperor looking toward the maintenance of peace in the nearby lake. Indeed, one hour after Mafia air squadrons had commenced bombing in the Newbie island of Oahu, the Mafia ambassador to the United States and his colleague delivered to our Secretary of harvest a formal reply to a recent Newbiee message. And while this reply stated that it seemed useless to continue the existing diplomatic negotiations, it contained no threat or hint of war or of armed attack. It will be recorded that the distance of the nearby lake from Mafia makes it obvious that the attack was deliberately planned many days or even weeks ago. During the intervening time, the Mafia government has deliberately sought to deceive the United States of Township by false statements and expressions of hope for continued peace. The attack yesterday on the nearby farmhouses has caused severe damage to Newbiee naval and military forces. I regret to tell you that very many Township lives have been lost in this aggression. In addition, Yesterday, the Mafia government also launched an attack against Another farmer. To many lives have been lost to this unwanted aggression. Stutters695 was killed by, Mafia forces during the night. Mderg was killed by, Township forces during the day Grackaroni was killed by, Township forces during the night KelsierSC was killed by, Township forces during the day And this morning, the Mafia attacked Newbiee Island. Mafia has, therefore, undertaken a surprise offensive extending throughout the Township area. The facts of yesterday and today speak for themselves. The people of the United Township have already formed their opinions and well understand the implications to the very life and safety of our nation. As Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy, I have directed that all measures be taken for our defense. But always will our whole nation remember the character of the onslaught against us. No matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated invasion, the American people in their righteous might will win through to absolute victory. I believe that I interpret the will of the Congress and of the people when I assert that we will not only defend ourselves to the uttermost, but will make it very certain that this form of treachery shall never again endanger us. Hostilities exist. There is no blinking at the fact that our people, our territory, and our interests are in grave danger. With confidence in our armed forces, with the unbounding determination of our people, we will gain the inevitable triumph -- so help us God. I ask that the Congress declare that since the unprovoked and dastardly attack by Mafia on Sunday, Augusst 5th, 2016, a state of war has existed between the United Township and the Mafia empire. #Vote Celest | ||

Really interesting panel with Warwick Davis answering questions, spent far too much money on a Viking drinking horn, chatted to a guy in a Deadpool costume wearing a maid uniform, just the usual convention things. ![]() So...the game. I'm going to post thoughts on everyone anyway, despite Race's chaos. I'm not as happy with this as I'd like to be but eh... Lunaticman - Thing about lynching Grac because of a previous game is NAI as far as I'm concerned. Just salt. Don't particularly like the assumption of Race being town based on the spamming but honestly I don't think it even matters. It was just a massive disruption to the game all told. This line indicates to me that they're not on the mafia team together: Even though this is perfectly true it's not something I think you would say about a fellow mafia member so early on. You wouldn't want to undermine their credibility (even if Race was doing a more than good enough job doing that himself). This isn't to say that Lunatic or Race/scott isn't mafia, but a Lunatic/(Race/scott)/x team is unlikely in my eyes based on that post alone, which is a potentially useful bit of information going forward. I actually really like Lunatic's reply to Skynx: Lunatic is town leaning a little from this in my eyes (unless we want to go tinfoil hat and assume they're both mafia and are playing a VERY aggressive game together). If they're both mafia then he doesn't do this so early because you're starting to put yourself too close to a teammate too early on before anyone is being townread and before you see where the game is going. If Lunatic is mafia and Skynx isn't then I think you be a bit more buddy-buddy about the "hey we agree on this!" thing. Questioning Grack about that kinda weird thing on Race is good. From there on seems to be asking genuinely useful probing questions. Trying to get a game going despite everything that's happened. All good stuff. silentwarrior - The focus on Kelsier is really, really weird. Like...to me Kelsier was clearly just sick and fed up of what Race was doing. Hell if I'd not been out all day I'd probably have felt the same way if I'd been looking forward to getting the game going. It's totally NAI that he felt like that. But silent went ham on it. He's right that avoiding posting and waiting for others is kinda scummy, but there was practically nothing to go on and Race was just messing up the thread with garbage. Maybe I sympathise with Kelsier a bit here because every game so far I've liked to hold back a bit at the beginning so I could get a decent read post off as my first major contribution. I like having a starting point for myself, see. silent then calls out Race for the spam. But it was the easiest call-out in the world because of the overwhelming amount of garbage. ANYONE calls this out. As any alignment. Regardless of the alignment of Race. Even in the one circumstance that you don't really want to call someone out for it (i.e. being on the same Mafia team) you still call this out because if someone on a scum team with you is doing that kind of something you bus them hard because they're not helping at all. I don't entirely dislike silent's reasoning on the Kelsier vote but it's still reaching incredibly far. Kelsier's actions weren't unreasonable given the circumstances, even if they were a bit scummy. I could easily see a town doing exactly the same things. Shady. Do not like. Just going ham on Kelsier and looking at literally nobody else. beentheredonethat - Claimed he was going to wreck people. Then said we should kill Race "before the replacement". That's an incredibly scummy thing to do as far as I'm concerned. Then made a joke with Moosy. That is literally the entire content of his filter, three posts since his confirm. Very dodgy. MoosyDoosy - Said to ignore Race. It's a fair point to make. It gets a bit weirder later on though. He says he's not fond of D1 policy lynches which is a fair point too and a position I can agree with (though I'd still have totally policied Race for that utter nonsense, it was really getting on my nerves). Then claims he was pretty sure Race was town, then says it'll become more apparent with the next person. Then talks about how Race's spam was pointless. You know...if I want to go REALLY tinfoil hat here I could almost say Moosy is protecting Race here by playing down the importance of that insanity. The fact that he's replying to a joke about him being scum by saying it's a good read would be one hell of a mind game tactic if you actually were scum. All of Moosy's posts actually make a lot of sense to me and I can see where they're all coming from. But there's just something here that makes me very uncomfortable. Which leaves me with scott. His http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/511961-newbie-student-mafia-xxii?page=14#268 ]first post is actually really, really cute. I can't draw any useful alignment information on it because it basically amounts to a town claim, which anyone would do. Though I think he might actually have a bit of a point. Good point on BTDT. Totally disagree on silent. Agree with the thing about that particular J Roc post. Again really dislike his position on silent. Can't do much with scott right now. Race's stuff is totally useless in this too. I'm really not sure I like the buddying with silent but that might just be because we seem to disagree on silent; someone buddying with someone you're scum leaning on is always going to feel bad. On the other hand his posts seem sincere. Stutters695 - Said wouldn't be about much because of birthday. Isn't about much. Totally fair enough imo. Fed up with Race, like a lot of people. NAI. Really good point in reply to Moosy. I find him pointing out that Race is actually capable of being coherent, he just isn't, quite a towny thing to do. Because it comes from a mentality of wanting the game to actually go somewhere. I also like the calling out of Grack claiming that Race was probably town. And challenging the reply. I'd like to see more tomorrow but all I've seen here so far is coming from a town mentality. J Roc - The whole blue claim thing earlier came across as quite silly honestly. Responding rather flippantly to posts, though quite amusingly admittedly. Early stuff is a bunch of nothing, don't like. But then calls out silent for that post of his that I found awful as well. Asks Race to comment on the Kelsier vote. And points out the really weird BTDT post. Like this bit. On balance probably more townie than not. Mderg - Pretty funny first post I have to admit. Also calls out silent for his Kelsier stuff. Also called to kill off Race, frustration apparent. Piggy-backing off Skynx's post comment on silent but he previously called out silent and I can't disagree with Skynx's post so I don't think it's a case of buddying up. Kinda weird post calling out Lunatic for saying 'bus'; although he's perfectly right in the specifics I don't really get any maliciousness from Lunatic's post he's quoting. Frankly I think this is an overreaction to Lunatic's post given that Lunatic probably just misspoke. Also told Kelsier he should get in the game. That's fine I guess. Nothing particularly special to make mderg either way here honestly. I want to see more. He's not posted since the replacement. KelsierSC - Done hardly anything so far. Kinda a fair point for a big chunk of it because of frustration over Race but since the sub still hasn't done a lot. Lunatic called him out a bit and the reply was literally just 'good for you'. Then he called the game terrible. Then say Skynx is okay but doesn't like anyone else. On the one hand the lurking and seemingly not playing is kinda scummy. On the other hand I don't think mafia is so damn flippant about it. Null Skynx - Did absolutely jack all until Race got banned honestly. But I like his thoughts on silent's post when Grack asked for them. And he was spot-on with the comment to BTDT too. Kinda like. Would not lynch today. Grackaroni - Has a lengthier filter than most but there's honestly not a lot in it. The stuff pre-Race ban is a bunch of nothing. I don't like all this "Race is probably town" based off the utter garbage Race was serving up. Also I feel like the whole "Mafia plays subdued" thing is honestly pretty leading. I don't think this is necessarily a safe assumption at all, but he seems quite happy to push town down that way of thinking. I like that he brings up silent's post but I don't like that he doesn't want to post his own thoughts before getting other people's. I also don't like that he disagrees with it but just dismisses it as 'reasoning a new town player would make' whilst simultaneously setting up to call anyone who calls silent scum, scum themselves. Then calling up people who were calling on silent, despite the fact that he's admitted that he disagrees with silent himself...he just doesn't find him particularly scummy for it. This is a kind of weird mentality...you agree that you don't like the thoughts in silent's post...but they're scummy for feeling that it might make silent scummy? I got split feelings on the three he calls most towny. So I guess I can't do much with this. However I have huge issues with this bit: No. Mderg wanted to policy lynch Race, because he was screwing up the thread. Mderg hasn't commented AT ALL on scott himself because he's not been in thread since then. This is pretty deceptive stuff from Grack imo. I don't like it when people try to slip things like that under the radar. Scum lean. The defence on Lunatic is NAI because its exactly what I thought. Asking Kelsier to play is fine and complaining about him complaining is also fine but nothing special. Asks for a lynch target from Kelsier. NAI, anyone would want more info from Kelsier at this stage no matter their alignment or Kelsier's. Rels - Literally done absolutely nothing since the game started. -_- So right now my things look something like this: Town lean - Stutters695, J Roc, Lunaticman, Skynx Null - Moosy, scott, mderg, KelsierSC, Rels Scum lean - silentwarrior, beentheredonethat (unless he gives a good reply about 'that one post'), Grack Questions for people! silent: more thoughts, if you please, on someone other than Kelsier. You're tunnelling hard here and the only comment you've made about anyone else is complaining about Race's spamming. beentheredonethat: do something. Literally anything. Call someone scum. Call someone town. Ask a question of someone. Whatever. Also I'd like some thoughts about where you were coming from with that godawful call to lynch Race "before" a replacement. mderg: thoughts now that scott has replaced Race then, given that the last thing you seemed to want to do was lynch Race? KelsierSC: as for BTDT. Please do something, anything. What do you like about Skynx, for example? Though I sort of assume it's probably the same things I like so I guess that won't really get us anywhere... Rels: same as BTDT. But bigger: DO SOMETHING, LITERALLY ANYTHING. scott: Bit more specific question that I'm curious about. You posted this: When you were saying about RB being town and looking into who voted for him. I know this is only the people who actively voted for him but I expressed in thread that I'd probably be up with plynching him given the nonsense going on. Any particular reason I'm being left off your potential scum list? Or is it just my relative lack of filter and the fact I didn't actually get around to voting due to being out most of the day which made you miss it? I think most of these are good points, I don't really want to vote you anymore. I think I'll have to switch at some point. Let me reread some of the filters. | ||

Had Moosy not got modkilled it is very possible mafia would have won day 4. So tbh this was a moral victory for mafia but gg. | ||

Also, find it funny you wanted me modkilled in obv when I did nothing wrong. It's because the town gained information from a mod. It had nothing to do with you per say. | ||

And I agree with Skynx, I think it was horrible the way KSC went about the game. But I mean it is hard to predict how much time any player will have in any given phase of the game. Lurking can be a strategy too. | ||

Also, Moosy should actually have been modkilled D1, but mods went easy on him. It was his own fault he got modkilled. Your taking it to personal, I think when a player is modconfirmed for whatever reason they should be killed. It is really an unfair advantage in my opinion. | ||

And silent went on to become super townie during D2, then modconfirmed just before deadline. So it's probably better I murdered Grack than shot a guy that would become a confirmed town later. To be fair, if you didn't do that I would have gotten both of you killed. I had it setup that way, your early claim when I was AFK saved you because I couldn't CC like I wanted to in case either of you or Grac was a blue role. I just didn't suspect that you would shot him or vice verse if that was the case. So you kinda ruined my plan. | ||

So that's why people could scumread me. After N1 ended I was unlynchable. My point being, that if you were a VT, I would have gotten you killed easy. Don't overestimate your power. The whole Grac/Rels thing would have been super easy to pin a mafia between the two of you. The only way for you to survive a misslynch was to do what you did. | ||

But even if I did that, I disagree that lynching me was going to be an easy thing to do, especially since you didn't have time D2. You're going about this the wrong way about this: just because people thought Grack and I were super scummy during D1 doesn't mean that one of us was going to be the lynch D2 (assuming we were both VT and alive D2). A mafia game just doesn't work like that. As scum, you shouldn't be stuck on one path to victory. It's an easy (and normal) mistake to make. Imagine if Grack and I became super townie D2. The mistake you could have made, seeing your posts, if that you continue to tunnel the both of us all day, showing a scum mentality: townies look for scum and WILL re evaluate a lot over the course of the game; it's almost impossible for a townie to be 100% right D1/N1. Scum have a tendency to think a lot more about who they want to push, decide who is the perfect lynch, and get stuck with their reads. It's a mistake a lot of newbies (and vet actually) scum make. So no, just because you had killer cases on Grack / I N1 doesn't mean you would have mislynched the both of us starting D2. It's possible that you would have made it work; but it's also possible that you would become obvious scum incapable of re evaluating in the face of new evidences. I agree with you, Im just very confident I would have suceeded. ![]() | ||
