I'm curious of the Jealous townread because at page 13 I'm not seeing it ptmc -

slight scum lean:
SoulEaterQUEEN, but purely based on the RVS
Stutters, see calix' post, also his mentioning of his meta rubs me the wrong way
Lunatic, since he town reads my scum lean?

And I don't like all the townreads he's getting simply for writing the most words in the thread. 80% of his content are about things that are not scumhunting and are very easy to write about: RVS, meta, PL. The only thing he's done in terms of reads has been questionning Stutters with Calix. I don't liek that he's already justifying himself to not having to take a stance: Show nested quote +On September 24 2016 13:29 Jealous wrote:On September 24 2016 12:05 SoulEaterQUEEN wrote:
I get a light town read on Calix based on #204, #207.
I'd like to hear more from Jealous, in #213, it sounds like a light scum read or suspicion on Stutter - but the way they phrase it as a question because they are confused makes me think they are hesitant on the read, just maybe? Not a scum read just yet. I don't crystallize or publicize my reads until I have a decent catalog of posts on which to base them, because I feel like weak pressure and baseless reads are harmful to town because they lack substance, have a higher probability of being wrong, and can lead to ML. I am just trying to get a feel for the players I am not familiar with and see what kind of person is behind the keyboard, why they say what they say, and thus look for inconsistencies in-game. So, Jealous, I want you to explain your stance on Stutters' answers to your questions.
This is exactly where I'm at with Jealous too
Rels moves up in my book

So I've read Jealous's filter and this is the most informative post in his whole filter. Still not a big fan of you though.
So let me read Luna's and Stutter's filters. I've observed a lot more Stutters games than Luna's (although there have been a couple)

Im going to sleep now and Im putting my vote on Da so I dont miss it.
Well I liked Rels's posts so far - so hmmm

Seriously, did no one else catch what I quoted before I left besides Luna?
I'll give you a hint, go read SEQs filter (9 posts). The one I quoted shows a clear lack of reading, even incredibly early in the game.
I'm working another 2 hours, but if anyone has any questions fire away. No comment on the blue stuff, scum can try to figure it out on their own.
Okay - I've re-read this thought about three times - and I think I get it.
The thing I do like about it is Stutters believes in his find of lack of reading. I don't think he'd be so daring as mafia.
The thing is - I don't see where Luna quoted it though. :/
Verdict: Wouldn't lynch today

I don't think anyone is town-reading or defending Luna - which makes me worry.

This is a pretty bad first post, as been quoted and noted earlier.

I liked that last bit you wrote in the post. I feel the same way but I tend to be impulsive and pressurize my way into getting reads as a natural reaction when I begin playing through RVS which has lead to some results in getting activity in the game which is nice. I still have yet to see the point in the RVS in general but noticed the lack of presence of it so far here. Would like to hear the views of how you perceive RVS/what kinds of points given. This may not lead to alignment indicative posts, but gives me an understanding of where people's heads are at this point in the game.
That being said, I like how confident tone in that post, it could be from a very well seasoned player, but normally see caution amongst scum at the beginning, so I am definitely light town reading Jealous based on the #233, I also like how there is consistency on the behaviour reasoning for the post I questioned which again feels like they are not frabricating a reasoning.
Please note, my reads tend to have a dynamic flow as the game state changes so take it with a grain of salt.
There's a few things that bug me about this post (besides his failure to quote, which is one)
It's so pronouny it's a bit difficult to know who he's even talking about - especially if you get into another day and do a filter re-read.
The second would be the "Please note, my reads tend to have a dynamic flow as the game state changes so take it with a grain of salt." which in theory any one would do.
It gives me weird vibes.

Okay so here's my thoughts on what I have read up on so far:
town leans on
Xalador (gave my reasons earlier)
pmtc (the discussion and decoding Danaler's alignment with Xalador felt incredibly nature/smooth + points on scum hunting)
Calix (earlier interactions = bit blurry on reasoning though other than criticism on stutter just nice impression since it gave me stuff to work with to get out of gross RVS)
small town lean on
Danaler (gave my reasoning earlier = based on tunnelling on Lunar)
DoYouHas (analysis on myself I guess? kinda a weak reasoning)
Unsure on
Jealous (confident tone which felt townie to me, abuses newb card in #366 rubs me the wrong way. Good point by Rels that alarms go off on the lack of scum hunting)
Stutters (still need more on current game state thoughts)
Slight Scum read
Lunar (commented on how I didn't like how he gave into the pressure by players, shakey confidence, but didn't like the filler jab I pointed out in #357 and #359 - don't like meta tells to be that conceret)
the rest, nothing really stood out in my backreading.
Although I disagree with a bit of this list - SEQ is providing a list here. (IE Jealous & Rels)
Xatalos is a really spammy player but nothing has set me off on him or anything yet.
Stutters, I feel it's a little OMGUS with a couple good and a few bad posts, to be honest. Just under null is where I'd put SEQ.

I wonder how not wanting to state a read because it will reveal a blue role is equal towards being mafia. The reason for not saying anything is because that is based o information town dont want mafia to know.
This game is just full of paragraf knights. I told you why I didnt want to say my SINGLE read and I got forced. Saying I wasnt forced is a lie.
And when I do say why Im a coward, so either way Im scum. And that dosent even make sense.
It is also intresting to see that town once again town reads the people with most posts as town.
Remember that mafia always sound smater and better because they know who is mafia and are working with perfect information.
Lastly I yet to see a day one lynch of a mafia player so anything that happens day one usually is just speculation.
My time is precious this weekend the little spare time I have not working is spent defending myself. I dont really have time to do what I want which is identify townies and lookig for mafia in the top posters day one.
A good example is my last normal game in which I found the gf day one and was unsuccessful in lynching him 3 days in a row because the mafia undermined me constantly.
So who do you want to lynch?

Allright, so I even asked Luna who he wanted to lynch and didn't even say. He had two wordy posts that didn't have any content. There's a couple other people trying to push other lynches now too - so I feel more confident voting for him.

What part do you not get? I was saying that isn't a "slam dunk" basically. We have more than three people that have other preferred lynches than Luna. (like was supposed to be lynch)

Man i dont get why get this PL discussion every game. Its quite simple, odds are town barely have any info D1 to decide on a proper lynch, hence guy with 2 posts dies. Sometimes scum slip, or someone has incredible meta read confidence or w/e, then you dont't pl. Simple stuff. Somehow I knew you would say that. I hope we can stay on friendly terms this time around but I doubt it. Stutters is so far the most obvious townie. I am a bit afraid of the logical development of this game. TL is filled with smarties that loves to talk the talk but always lynch the random dude that didnt sound smart. This will be the doom of us all I tell you, nobody can look more perfect then the mafia because they already know everything! This looks like the current meta afk townies and leading mafia for sure. This totally reminds me if the palmar/hf domination game check it out.

SEQ moves up for being the first on the Luna train and not swaying.
Xatalos and Jealous as well.
90%+ Town:
SEQ
Calix
Rels
Jealous
Town lean (in order)
Skynx
Stutters
Xatalos
DanelerH
ptmc
My instincts tell me I think one of the scums is probably hiding in the town lean list though.
Scumlean:
DYH - I like some of Skynx's posts on him - and his vote reasoning looks really bad once I've re-read it as well.
Superbia - I'm not a fan of how he wanted to go after me - the reasoning was weak, many others did not agree and I know i'm town (OMGUS?)
|
So I'll try to explain it better for you-
So last night, Luna was looking pretty bad, after he made the blue post - he got really defensive. I was thinking about voting for him at that time - but no one had town read him, defended him, or really push another lynch. This made me fear he was town. I even asked him straight up who he'd like to lynch.
So this morning, all he had was two new posts - and they had 0 usable content. It was all "why you calling me mafia etc". Skynx wanted to go for another lynch as well now (DYH in post #462)
With the above new information, I put my vote on Luna and he never posted again.

Other reads from the Lunaticman-Lynch: solid town: DanelerH Calix town lean: Jealous Rels SEQ superbia (for actually noticing scott) inconsistent: Xatalos Skynx scum leans (lynch all day err'day) Scott, stutters, dyh This is quite impressive p: in particular this made me reread Jealous post where he called Lunatic's post retarded. It's very true that it's a strong word to use on your teammate so it is a town indicator for Jealous. Stutters is still 99% town because of how Lunatic treated him. And Superbia did like nothing this game yet, if scott is scum I agree that he's a unlikely partner but until that happens he's not town. Other than that, this list is pretty good Slight disagreements.. 1) It's pretty safe to call a scummate "retarded". Basically it just downplays their ability to play, making them less suspicious if they do something stupid/anti-town. 2) Lunatic's posting about Stutters would make little sense if they're teammates, but Stutters himself didn't react to Lunatic in a way that would raise much confidence, so.... I'd say Stutters is still a bad lynch, but not sure town. 3) True, he's not done much, but he's been very blatant about it... He seemed pretty relaxed when Lunatic was heading for the slaughter too. On second thoughts, he did seem to hesitate about going for a counter-push on scott or not. It would fit a scum motivation if scott is town, but that's not certain at all.
It's certain to me that I'm town, yo
I also think PT's and Dandel's posts were pretty good as well.

You only got two responses before claiming it was a reaction-test? My dear Watson, the game is afoot. That does seem kind of counterproductive in retrospect.

No I didn't say that you are scum I just find it suspect why I have to tell you why I town read him even though I don't want to yet. There is no reason not to give your reasoning for a Town-read. I want to know why you think Shutters is Town and I will not accept "I'll tell you later" as an answer. The game is 4 pages long day one, take a chill pill. I dare to say I have done more than half the players in the game and in my experience you never hit mafia day one. It is much better to build a town circle. Also Stutters is in all likelyhood a blue role. And if he dies it is on you and Rels. Am I crazy for thinking this is an anti town post? Making Stutters out to be blue role with no nuance is downright retarded. It is absolutely anti-town. Do you think it is bad play or scum? On September 25 2016 10:53 DoYouHas wrote:

Pretty decent case here, kind of goes what I was thinking as well.

There's one positive, two negatives, and one note with this post I'm going to keep to myself.
The one thing I like is in the third paragraph is how he describes "before you all send me packing to try and not leave the town with nothing." Feels like a honest (or trying to be) townie on a legit sympathy for the rest of the town.
The two things I do not like are "Many of you want to lynch me, I get it." - now if I'm town, I'd phrase this as "Many of you want to mislynch me, I get it." - something worth noting to me.
The other is I will probably have at most 1-2 hours to look at this game between now and deadline. So since your last post - we have had two pages of posting - but you wrote this out instead?
Like I asked Stutters, who do you think are the last two scum, and a sentence of your reasoning.
The note I'm keeping for later in the day and will post if necessary.
So many other people being silent gives me tinfoil tinglies as well.

On September 29 2016 02:38 Xatalos wrote:I'll answer to earlier questions for me etc. later, but I had an idea while at work that I just had to start working on as soon as I could... So the following post is about that. It should make things a lot clearer at least for me  The idea being: two levels of scummy interactions, one for Lunatic <--> others and the other for the scummiest of the previous ones <--> each other to figure out 3-man scumteams that make sense. Let's see where this goes. (huge thanks to ptmc's post here by the way, it saved me a lot of time: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/513316-newbie-student-mafia-xxiii?page=35#695 ) 1) Lunatic <--> othersDanelerHPushed Lunatic through most of D1 and possibly caused him to "shut down" in the thread. I highly doubt he would do that to his teammate. Lunatic appeared genuinely pressured as well, making odd (in hindsight) claims like the blue read on Stutters and going overly defensive. CalixPretty much started the Stutters-read pressure on Lunatic and participated in forming his lynch wagon. Kind of similar to DanelerH, hard to see scum doing that to each other from the start of the game. StuttersA more controversial pick for green color, perhaps, but I agree with whoever said that it would be extremely rare for scum to immediately throw a strong townread on their teammate like Lunatic did. It would only link them together in everyone's minds (something scum would definitely not want) and make the other look bad/scum if the other flips. In addition, it wouldn't come naturally as a careless throwaway comment like how Lunatic said it. It just fits so much better as a casual, too strong townread on someone he would know to be town in advance. Also, I have an interesting theory related to Stutters, but that's best left for later. RelsJumped on the Lunatic wagon pretty early and questioned his read on Stutters earlier on, but nothing truly conclusive. Town lean? - - - - - - (the point after which I can see these people being scum with Lunatic to some meaningful extent) SEQ/TictockVoted for Lunatic, but otherwise ??? JealousHard to say. Had Lunatic as a lynch candidate / scum for most of D1, but nothing exactly conclusive to their relations happened. scottCan't say I agree with ptmc's assessment about how weirdly he interacted with Lunatic. His posts almost mirror my thoughts at the time of their writing (even regarding Stutters and DanelerH)... but it's true that he was pretty "on the fence" about lynching Lunatic or not during D1 so it's not too hard to see a Lunatic/scott team. DYHPassive towards Lunatic and the whole D1 lynch in general. His Lunatic vote was pretty "resigned" and late as well. Could well be scum with Lunatic. SkynxSoft-defended Lunatic, ignored him or counter-pushed away from him on several occasions during D1 (see ptmc's eventlist for easy details, just search for "Skynx" lines in red text, or read his filter). Never pressured Lunatic or contributed to his lynch either (no, the one-liner "Lunatic had the worst intro post I guess" didn't impact his own or anyone else's play during D1). A Lunatic/Skynx scumteam makes the most sense to me. 2) Sensible scumteams?Now it's the time to check if any of the players who could be scum with Lunatic would fit as scum with each other. Skynx/DYH?Doesn't seem very likely. Skynx pushed DYH late during D1, and it would be pretty stupid to go through that trouble just to perhaps get a scum lynched instead of another scum. More sensible options would have been to bus Lunatic or to push a townie. I guess it could have been distancing, but that doesn't seem likely in that high-stakes situation. Verdict: NOSkynx/scott?Skynx soft-defends scott in a couple of his posts, otherwise nothing. scott barely mentions Skynx, but when he does, in a slightly positive light. This team could make sense. Verdict: YESSkynx/Jealous?Jealous doesn't really mention Skynx until very recently where he said that he "doesn't like Skynx but he's not necessarily scummy". Skynx doesn't really talk about Jealous at all. Verdict: YESSkynx/SEQ/Tictock?Not much, but Skynx congratulates SEQ for questioning Lunatic... And Tictock calls Skynx town for "pressuring Lunatic"??? In reality, it was the opposite situation, just read Skynx's filter or ptmc's summary. Not really sure if scum would so blatantly prop up another, but something is off. Verdict: YESDYH/scott?Not completely sure about this one, but I guess they do fit somehow. scott agrees that DYH is scummy, but not much beyond that.... They also have a weird interaction where they start to "chat" with each other, but nothing happens? Verdict: YESDYH/Jealous?Not likely. DYH has pressured/scumread Jealous on several occasions and similarly Jealous has been scumreading DYH. A double bus in this game state is a bit too unlikely... Verdict: NODYH/SEQ/Tictock?DYH defended SEQ somewhat, but Tictock has been quite anti-DYH. Could be bussing, I guess, but hard to say. Verdict: ?scott/Jealous?scott scumread Jealous D1, but townread him after the Lunatic lynch since Jealous "never wavered on lynching Lunatic". Jealous put scott as a lynch candidate after Lunatic was lynched. Overall, uncertain for now. Verdict: ?scott/SEQ/Tictock?Kind of like with Jealous, scott first (slightly) scumreads SEQ and townreads him after Lunatic was lynched since he "never wavered on lynching Lunatic". SEQ never mentions scott. Tictock calls scott "prob town but kinda null". I guess this scumteam could work... Verdict: YESJealous/SEQ/Tictock?SEQ townreads Jealous early on, later on unsure. Tictock calls Jealous null. Jealous doesn't really voice an opinion on SEQ/Tictock. Verdict: YESIf I missed something, please point it out. This has been a ton of work and there's probably a mistake somewhere at this point. In any case, it's time for the conclusions based on earlier stuffs. Here are the sensible possible scumteams that are left now: Skynx/scott Skynx/Jealous Skynx/Tictock DYH/scott scott/Tictock Jealous/Tictock Frankly, I'm not too confident that DYH is scum based on this. He would almost have to be scum with scott. Meanwhile Skynx could basically be scum with anyone besides DYH. scott isn't very limited either, but I like him better than either Skynx or DYH. Well, I'd be glad to hear other opinions on these findings.
Some of these are some crack smoking teams -
I'm town so a lot of them are crack but -
DYH/me - so I push my other teammate in n1/d2 and lay a vote on him at the beginning of d2 and have others hop on it, so I'm all by myself for 3-4 mislynches. Yeah that'll work
Me/TT - so SEQ/TT starts the train on his teammate, and then when TT replaces in, he's got legitimate thoughts and we mindmeld together because we are mafia together? mmhmmm
I think this is quite a bit of stretch and what you are throwing out, to be honest. It's why I asked you who your two scummates are. Now it looks like you are throwing shit to see what sticks.
Not good.

Well that sucks.
Don't think I'll say much until EoD

Last Will and Reads in order
4) ptmc - This guy has his spurts - but he craps out analysis quite well. I have very little doubt this guy is town.
6) Tictock - We have a lot of ideas we sync on - his replacement was the first on LunaticMan.
1) Calix - I really think this guy is town, but he has a change from his last game that had no suspicions at all. He's giving real thoughts and contributing to the game. If he doesn't die d4/d5/etc I'd get really worried why he's alive.
2) Rels - His push on Luna - this feels like helpful, progressing the game Rels, not the scummy Rels.
3) Skynx - He's trying really hard to pocket me or he's town and others are looking to mislynch him. I think he's town though and not trying some stray idea. But in the tinfoil "Game can't be this easy" strat, he's my #2 tinfoil mafia.
5) Jealous - Like his last wall of texts show he's looking into the game, looking for holes and possibilities.
3) DanelerH- After re-reading his filter there's not a whole lot there. One page - and two okay posts. He has some scumreads, which is good, but I want to see where he goes with these. He goes after Luna at the beginning when there was little pressure to do so.
1) Stutters695 - Luna/d1 interactions - he really shit the bed day 2 though. If he doesn't step it up today, he's gone.
4) Xatalos - Guy is pretty defensive, doesn't like to give up information unless forced (Don't give town a damn thing style) - and feel like he's trying to mislynch Skynx, since I'm either being really pocketed or he's town. He also in his "scum team" and other posts seem to leave me as low hanging fruit.
I feel Xata is mafia, and there's a vet that knows Superbia that killed him when he was scumming me, and not nearly as helpful as the three up above (or the blue read) Hopefully this kill will shine some more light.

A'ight. What do you think TT? Put some pressure on Xata? Wait for stutters to shit out some info? What do you think?

Also if there's a cop - remember there's a miller and a godfather, your checks can mean nothing.

Feels like a honest (or trying to be) townie on a legit sympathy for the rest of the town. The two things I do not like are "Many of you want to lynch me, I get it." - now if I'm town, I'd phrase this as "Many of you want to mislynch me, I get it." - something worth noting to me. The other is I will probably have at most 1-2 hours to look at this game between now and deadline. So since your last post - we have had two pages of posting - but you wrote this out instead? Like I asked Stutters, who do you think are the last two scum, and a sentence of your reasoning. The note I'm keeping for later in the day and will post if necessary. So many other people being silent gives me tinfoil tinglies as well. What was the note you were keeping to yourself?
The medic. They were dodging the medic (if one exists). A vigi would've shot by now.
The note was that this the last post DYH could make a blue claim and I would believe it. If he would have made it afterwards, it was past the point of no return and I wouldn't buy the claim. He had enough pressure and was early enough. That obviously didn't turn out though.

Welp DYH Shall we chat? This was in response to the Superbia kill. What do you think the Mafia was dodging?

Boy I do hope scum doesn't figure out I'm a PR.
But from knowing Superbia's playstyle I was 90% sure this was only a bait. It may have worked
I'm not going to hide the point he was scum reading me as well, if that's where you're going.

Yeah this got my attention during EOD as well. Jealous was very quick to throw out the idea of DYH being town for bad reasons.
Scums are most likely in Jealous / Stutters / scott
I'm not sure how it would take you so long to read over his filter and find this.

I'm starting to see the light now.

So reading your filter over Stutters, and I saw -

I'm here and not scum. How disappointing.
Anyway, as it stands I'd be all for a d1 Xata lynch. Pretty sure he's fooled me like the last 3 times he's been mafia and that's no good.
So, I did some research - Unless there's some newer games this does not have, I only see one game (and Assassination?) where you were town and Xatalos is mafia.

Unfortunately, looks like you can't vote for yourself in this setup :/ Interesting idea. What does this achieve?
Last time I checked, voting for yourself is a lazy way of avoiding pressure, gives no info, doesn't get you reads. Unless you are schizo ^_^Also hi there. I'm one of the newbs, this is my first on-site mafia, therefore I am not aware of the site meta. Also find it pointless to link off site meta examples personally. Too many players fall into the meta trap to conclude reads. Anyway this is shit fluff talking. Grill me, bake me, do whatever that makes you happy until my alignment cookie crumbles infront of you. I'll post my RVS vote, and call it a night. Emphasis mine. I'd lynch for this
I still never understood this.

If you all think Stutters is town and do not want to lynch him - it's fine. Him and Xatalos make the most sense to me though.
Seeing TicTock go after me makes me sad though - We've been having in sync thoughts and I guess cuz I had a few beers and things started to make more sense now he thinks I am mafia. But I'm pretty sure he's town. I don't why this has happened (his 180) - I guess cause of my base case on Stutters? It was more that he hasn't done shit - I know the mafia game link was weak.
I'll be back and forth - probably going out to eat though. Going to take it pretty easy today, I have a test tomorrow to take and I want a clear mind for it. Speaking of, I won't be here for deadline.

Well TT, let's see what you got:
My replies in bold
On October 01 2016 19:49 Tictock wrote:The Case on Scott Just for a change of pace and to keep this post from getting unmanageable I'm going to link to posts rather than quote them directly, at least for the most part. Regarding Lunatic:Feel like I should just get the done first and get it out of the way. Scott first mentions Lunatic in #380 though he is pretty much just mirroring what has already been said about Lunatic. In the very next post Scott throws out doubts because nobody is defending Lunatic. Last we get #518 which is when Scott decided to vote for Lunatic. To me this post reads as though Scott is reluctant to lynch Lunatic, but has no better alternatives (this will get into my next point). So Scott parroted the concerns people had with Lunatic, threw out doubts, then voted Lunatic when there was really no other option. Also worth noting that after Scott posts #380 he has nothing to say about any other reads besides a post responding to stutters where he concludes SEQ was just under a null read. So this doesn't make me mafia though - You just all think I rode the phat bus. Hey I was worried there was no one defending Luna, like I've mentioned multiple times. When no one defends, OFTEN it's a townie. Luna's screw up was so bad though.D1 Read's and Progression:Not quite the same as the last point, but related. I pointed out that Scott didn't really talk about his reads after #380, but before that he posted #307 where he townreads Calix and Rels, and scumreads Jealous and Dane. The problem here is that Scott gives no real indication of why he thinks they are scum, and these reads basically disappear after #380. In fact both Jealous and Dane later show up in #661 as townreads with no real mention of them in between. So basically besides what I already talked about with Lunatic, Scott has no read progression at all with his D1 reads. EoN2 Reads List:Reviewing Scotts filter I realized that his reads posted in #1076 don't really make sense given his progression. THESE ARE ALMOST THE SAME FUCKING READS YOU HAVE! SO WHY AM I MAFIA? The biggest thing is the read on Xata, Scott had Xata as a townread in #661 and the only post relating to Xata I could find is Scott reacting to Xata's big "Possible teams" post. Problem is the read shift to scum here seems a bit exaggerated, Show nested quote +Guy is pretty defensive, doesn't like to give up information unless forced (Don't give town a damn thing style) - and feel like he's trying to mislynch Skynx, since I'm either being really pocketed or he's town. He also in his "scum team" and other posts seem to leave me as low hanging fruit. I'm not gunna dig into this read much, besides note that it's odd that Scott accuses Xata of trying to mislynch Skynx. I will also make note for my next point that based on this reads list Xata is Scott's strongest scum read. Push on Stutters today:As I said before this was what first got me reconsidering my read on Scott. So coming into today Scott and I apparently have very similar reads and Scott asks me, Show nested quote +On September 30 2016 07:02 scott31337 wrote:
A'ight. What do you think TT? Put some pressure on Xata? Wait for stutters to shit out some info? What do you think? Which seems fine and resonable so I reply that pushing stutters is kinda pointless and ask him to talk to me about Xata. Scott still never responded to this. Instead Scott "starts to see the light" and makes the push on Stutters. This bothers me not just because scott asked my opinion and this was the opposite of it, but because Stutters is already super-low hanging fruit that is widely scumread. What really makes this push unlikely to come from town imo is just how bad the points Scott brought up where. The comment stutters made about playing with Xata in the past is so NAI I'm amazed Scott even tried to make a post about it (I suspect that post was made to give screenshots and make it look like scott was trying to dig into things). The stuff about the past game where Super vigged Stutters had no real connection to this game since Super townread Stutters and when I spent 5 min glancing at Stutters filter that game I thought it was pretty clear the play we see from Stutters this game is very different from that scumgame. Basically neither point Scott makes should suggest Stutters is scum, and reviewing the same stuff Scott did I came to the opposite conclusion. Whats amazing is that even when I say we aren't lynching Stutters and that I want to lynch Scott, here is his response. Show nested quote +On October 01 2016 06:41 scott31337 wrote:

Even admits his own point on Stutters was weak. Misc:Just a couple things I noticed that bug me.

Also if there's a cop - remember there's a miller and a godfather, your checks can mean nothing. Who wants to bet Scott is the goon? Lol. Seriously though, this struck me as odd. I don't know why would town think to post this, but obv scum worried about getting checked would benefit from reminding any cop that there is some hate on his checks.
I think that about covers it. I've got a bit more to say as I've got a pretty good running theory about who the last scum is as well, but I'll go ahead and save that for now kus it might get confusing.
I'm VT. This will be my last defending post. LIKE I POSTED YESTERDAY, I have a test to take in an hour. Go ahead and lynch me. Go ahead and say "He would've defeneded more."
I don't have time to. I need a calm mind for my test, and this will not help.
I think town is losing traction but do a lot of posting and we can get this game back.
I love how I got the same reads as TT and post the same fucking reads 30 seconds later but I'm fucking mafia.

Well I hope i passed my test - I'll find out in a couple of weeks. Get my nerd card!
I'm glad the miller issue has been solved, but it sucks Stutters was a mislynch. I've tried to guide two people I think we're mafia to their deaths and it has failed, so I have little faith in this game anymore of my reads. I need you guys to help me out. I won't want to guide another to lylo.
If we don't get a doc save or vet shot, it'll be 5-2 tomorrow. It'll probably be time to think about claiming (DO NOT DO IT BEFORE DAY THOUGH!)
I'm going to an American Football party tomorrow, so I'll check in here and there, but do not expect much.
Monday shouldn't be too busy (I HOPE) at work.
I still do not get TT's 180 though, especially when we had the same reads.
