The most likely motivation is easy ml and being under the radar in a somewhat lazy and hf driven game that's contentious at points.
Other than that it's towny looking to consolidate at least.
As for tw idk I'm suspicious and vivax has fallen off a lot to.
Thank god! I was going to ask the dark lord to make your child be the love child of Slam, Chez, Moosy, me, and Race.
Eh. Easy ML would of be just agreeing with it. My problem, is that he openly contracts himself, and doesn't seem to care. Maybe it was to look more town, due to being on the part of the wagon that was against TT.
But why then vote TT? If that was his plan, then he could of wasted his vote on me/palmar/Tw/you. And harp how he didn't vote for TT, who he would of know flipped green.
God this must be like how people try to read my votes when I am scum.
TW i am bothered with due to him knowing better then to town read me for what he did (Which no one commented on it. How dare you people. You complain about my WoT's being useless, but don't read it.) and his overall play. I am a bit put off by his last game, and how he was there. But I litterly have to read his posts as:
Let's Make Tumblewood Great Again! One lost scum game a Time!
because they bother me so much. He should be doing much more than this. He should be a easy read for me.
He's not.
Vivax, I saw a post about superbia (the one where he first mentions superbia) and the timing was really off. It felt out of place entirely with how the thread was talking. The caselet on Superbia was nothing great either. And I barely can remember or care nough about the posts I am reading around 30-40

This was kind of what pinged me when I was catching up earlier. It felt like Grack/ TW were ganging up on HF with shoddy reasoning once TT was under fire.

Would the post be scummy if he made his post without stating that setup discussion is boring? Also, to end up here after reading the posts seems like he's going way overboard.

Any other question could have been more productive. Calix opinion on NeverU was already fairly obvious from earlier convos. - That question wasn't related to superbias current circle of suspects -> ergo it was just a question to appear active, get people to talk about what they want to talk. And on top of it, it was a question easy for Calix to answer given that her opinion on NU is probably the most fleshed out in the game. - One point that isn't as important to me, but still relevant: The fact he had the same early scumreads as HF but somehow didn't relate to what HF wrote about them, or talked about HFs posts on them. This usually wouldn't be a problem if superbia actually brought up points of his own that seemed better to him than HFs points, but since I don't really see anything explaining why TT is mafia, this isn't the case.

(shit did someone say something earlier and now my thread reading is a lie?) They're both in this game. I have been inclined to group them together though I believe this has been covered by Calix before. TW's read on TT seemed non-existent and kind of forced. Plus he was willing to ignore your push on him because of 'paranoia'. Felt awkward. Like "look at how townie-paranoid I am" while not committing to anything. This is the reason superbia believes them to be suspect. It looks entirely based on TWs read on TT. You tell me if that's a good reason. Follow up from Vivax about Superbia was meh. Point 1 I don't love. 2 is a ok point to make. 3, too early in the game to state this IMO. You should sus. everyone (or talk to everyone) till halfway through Day 1. 4 is WIFOM reasoning.

Granted, I only skim-read it so this opinion is shit, but nothing Vivax pointed out is that scummy (seemed more theoretical, like when he was saying "Superbia could be trying to make Calix scum-read NU", so stuff like that is too...abstract (for lack of a better word) to appeal to me) I didn't see anything that only scum would do from either of them.

Don't know if that makes much sense but that's where my thoughts are atm with him. I really like this post! Townie tone, Townie mindset, it really is just a very obv. townie post.

Hello Internet, and welcome to Mafia Theroyizers, the show that brings town play to its knees
So, what is up with the absence of the letter D, on HF's posts? We can tell that a D is missing, since both good and friends both have D's in them. Therefore, why is HF almost dodging the letter D? Does he not like D's? Was he scared with By a Big D monster?
The answer is no.
HF just cannot be arsed to spell words right. It is actually a pivotal point in his play. By disregarding to spell words right, he throws people like me, grammar nazis, off his trail. Resulting in us being more focused in his spelling, then the actually content.
But that is just a theroyizer, a Mafia Theroyizer!

You basically didn't/don't act at like I know you to do as town. Your attitude, the way your attacking the thread, is off. Your not posting beautiful works of content. Your not having the same thought process I associative you to have (inquisitive/logical) and you just feel lazy overall. There is also problems with your logic. Your read on me earlier makes no sense IMO. I have shown to you, multiple times, that I talk set up in thread as either alignment. Hell, Storm was me trying to convince town that 3rd party existed, and was basically my set up talk that brought back the win for me.
Also the sheeping post, where you just say skynx (IIRC) is a good sheep due to voting records from past game I found ridiculous. Your sheeping a player, based off of things outside the game? It makes no sense.
So finally, we are here:
Let's Make Tumblewood great again! One lost scum game a time!
Because I refuse to believe your town, and your like this. The only thing that gives me a little ray of hope is your past game you played.

Calix I TR. NU and Skynx on same team? After what NU just posted? Grack idk (mainly because nothing stood out to me) and fuba is a shrug till I sit down and read his filter. Super is okish off what I have read on him. Palmar is apperently afkville. And HF..
Well HF is HF. Honestly waiting for him to fakeclaim this game.

I very much like Shapelog's spoiler post. He made some original and good points I can agree with on TW, Skynx, and even me.
It's hard to believe he is a grammar nazi with his spelling however.
@TW -- The game is not as clear cut as you make it to be. For instance, I am not against HF, Shape nor Super. I have liked both Super and Shape's recent post and still think that HF is town. It's much more complex than 'Group 1 vs Group 2'.

Well Good night.
"It's hard to believe he is a grammar nazi with his spelling however."

This isn't us against them and you're the only one thinking that at all.

Why Calix isn't scum
First of all: It is best first to ignore the Tictock wagon/flip and to look at Calix's posting style. Look big picture. Calix posting entirely from a townie mindset. He has consistently put himself out there with his reads and has been unafraid to call out bullshit. He is willing to confront people, inquisitive, and, above all, he is so clearly trying his hardest to help town. + Show Spoiler [Some examples of what I mean] +On September 09 2016 07:31 Calix wrote:Show nested quote +On September 09 2016 07:16 NeverUnlucky wrote:On September 09 2016 07:05 Calix wrote: Using the correct pronouns is not a scum tell and never will be.

Also seriously? You are aware that I moved to a different site to get AWAY from crappy meta reads and the first thing you do is give me shit via a crappy meta read? It's a very mild scum tell and always will be. Yes, I used it in my last line... in a different context. The "we" I used referred to you and me, not the town. Nice misrep attempt. Ugh, I know, and I apologize. I won't use meta anymore. :3 In regards to your LW point: you stated that town should use surnames/quotes to refer to X player and then mentioned that scum can manipulate LWs. So you knew that what you were going to say wasn't going to be helpful for town anyways. Why did you feel the need to mention this? What do you think of my first post? How did you think that town had PRs before they were lynched? It's a PRONOUN. Bloody Hell, if you're going to start a tunnel based on this, you're going to be useless. That wasn't a misrep because I was using it to say that your point sucked, not to discredit you. Scum can only manipulate LWs twice. The game is going to go on for more than two nights. There is going to be at least one accurate LW in there, no? Don't care to look. Where did I imply this again? I forget.

PL's here basically refer to Meta, inactivity, Behavior, or just the basics of scum hunting (I.E. Obv scum) I am guessing when you said NU cannot be a PL, you meant activity right?

Anyway, hi. It's pretty late for me so if I randomly drop off, don't be surprised. Bolded seems like fluff tbh cause you don't seem to have any own ideas to contribute for this part. "we have to find out what to do" . Who would've thought.Your last point is also pretty uninformative. It's like you're suggesting not to lynch. Doesn't look as bad as your second though. But still. You get a bit of benefit of the doubt for this being your first game here, but if somebody is meh for me right now it's you. My point says we shouldn't rely too much on LWs but that establishing good communication with the dead is important. While that's not some profound insight, there are clearly ideas being expressed here. What are you even referring to with the bolded part? Because it bears no resemblance to anything I said. "suggesting not to lynch" - No, I said we shouldn't rush into a lynch or policy-lynch early on. Nowhere did I imply that we shouldn't lynch. (which isn't even possible, lol) "benefit of the doubt" - No I don't. Just because I'm new to the site doesn't mean I'm clueless. What do you mean with "we should establish a way for dead townies to communicate" then? Cause to me it reads exactly like "we should do stuff" without having an idea of how to implement such a feat. I just suggested a way in which Sheriffs could communicate their results to the town by saying "they can get around the no-names rule by using post numbers" which is literally giving a suggestion as to how we communicate with the dead.On September 09 2016 07:00 NeverUnlucky wrote:On September 09 2016 06:46 Vivax wrote:On September 09 2016 06:37 Calix wrote: It doesn't look like you guys do RVS and I don't relate to the few posts being made so far, so I'l just chip in with some thoughts on the setup.

Also, she infered that town had PRs before they were lynched which shows she didn't correctly read the setup. It's NAI, but To add to your point about her fluff: she used words like "we" -- Scum tend to use those words more than town to fit in the group. Scum!Calix uses "we" a lot. She ends her post with an excuse to why she wouldn't post in the upcoming hours. It's something scum tends to do more, but it still is NAI. Scum-reading Calix. @Vivax, don't give me or her the benefit of the doubt because we're "new", we aren't. We're both familiar to mafia. Giving either of us (especially her) a chance, it could be all we need to fly under your radar. Using the correct pronouns is not a scum tell and never will be. You just used it yourself in your last line because it's a common word in the English language. Also seriously? You are aware that I moved to a different site to get AWAY from crappy meta reads and the first thing you do is give me shit via a crappy meta read? But that's about your first point, not the second one. Which makes it look to me like your second one might as well not be there. Proceeding with the dissection: There's always the chance that the scum can interfere with the message being given. -> yes, but what's the point of saying this. Although they can only rewrite LWs twice, we can't rely on the LWs much -> And yet you suggest a plan that seems to deem them important. but I think it's good to establish a way for the dead townies to communicate with the rest of the thread because I'm not seeing a way that the scum manipulation of the LWs/ votes can be prevented. -> Cause scum can manipulate LW, you want LW to be reliable communication? These two statements don't mesh together. Why? Cause scum can manipulate LW, no LWs are reliable. Main point being: I found your second point there to just be fluff. The point is that we can't trust the messages too much but that it's still a good idea for the dead town to try and communicate with the rest of the thread anyhow. (trying to post correct information > not trying at all) I'm not sure how saying "hey, here are some ways that the town could try to communicate info via their LWs" is a bad thing. I also didn't say "LWs are reliable" and openly said that we shouldn't trust them...which is something that you note in the rest of your post. I'm not seeing how you're concluding half the things that you are from my posts.

And shape is one of more interesting scum players on site, so I'll always hold out on him. You didn't explain your read on him, LMAO. "Obvious town" doesn't convince anybody (Maybe Eggy).

Explain. Can you cut the crap with referring to Eggy every game? Nobody here knows who you're talking about and it's petty. Pointing out fallacies =/= scum-hunting. Going "oh you misrepped me and made an appeal to emotion" isn't the same thing as detailed analysis. Vivax's post that I responded to is a MUCH better example of legit scum-hunting even if he's wrong. Maybe try emulating that instead of going "boom! Found a scum tell, gg no re" I don't agree with Damdred that he's scum-hunting. He claims to be using POE (with town-reads) but that is not the same thing imo. Otherwise not sure what he would be referring to.

I don't know what this site's view towards setup spec is but I consider it NAI. It's commonplace on my home site. I don't disagree with the conclusion but I dislike the reasoning. Your NU scum-read doesn't make sense. Why would the fact that I 'feel more genuine and helpful' have an impact on what NU's alignment is? You just used someone else to give a scum-read on another player. You say our entrances are the same on the 'surface level' so how do they differ underneath that then? So Damdred's a null?

Also first 1/3 of filter is arguments with her town read NU.
Rest of it is just lots of giving out free wishy washy town reads and flip flopping on vivax, I think there's one real case but that's on town Fuba. I was asking for a case for why they thought you were scum because things like "his cases aren't as good as they are when town" aren't something I can give an opinion on because I don't know your meta. I've also explained my thought process in regards to TT which is clearly shown in my filter. I initially scum-read him, then had doubts about his static train and the people voting him and then I switched my vote after reading fuba's filter. That's also a horrible characterisation of my filter. I had scum-read Grack/ TT/ TW together earlier, then revised that when I read fuba's filter and my town-reads aren't 'wishy-washy' whatsoever. I stated who they were and why and that was that. You haven't explained how fuba is town as of yet. In fact, NOBODY has. Why is everyone just ignoring him?Also, she slipped when she talked about setup spec, saying that town had PRs. Someone who rolled town would know which town roles are in the game. That's the first thing they would check. Additionally, her LW talk seemed coming from a mafia trying to appear like he's helping town perspective. It in no way helped town. If anything, her proposition would have given mafia more freedom to frame those LWs. btw, I will not post a LW. Any LW attached to my death is a framed one. There's also the meta points that make her 100% mafia in my eyes. I will list them later if need be. @Calix, they're not the shitty meta-reads you usually get scum-read for i.e. being much less active than usual. They're actual things you've only said as scum and will only say as scum. I didn't say town had PRs to begin with. I already explained what I meant there...? You have no meta points on me. It's impossible for you to have any because you've only read ONE scum game of mine from FIVE MONTHS AGO. One game =/= meta. Again, you have no idea what my scum meta is. You're too focused on 'scum slips' which aren't scummy so I expect anything I say will be ignored by you. Honestly.

"But Tumblewood," you ask, "how can you ignore that Calix had TMI with Tictock?" Ah ha ha haaa. What a silly question. Calix didn't have TMI at all. Right here is where Calix first shows wariness of the wagon on TT. Keep in mind that before this Calix was scumreading TT.

I just think that Tictock is going to end in a mislynch because nobody is doing anything to stop his train. Grackaroni spent more time explaining how his posts weren't defending Tictock than he actually did diverting the train and I know I am town. That can ONLY MEAN TWO THINGS: 1. He is town. 2. The entire scum team are so inactive that they don't give a fuck about stopping a lynch on their team mate. Option 1 is infinitely more likely but I'm not sure how to stop it.

Mafia can do anything they want at any point in the game and you don't know our meta. If anyone was throwing suspicions away from tt for no valid reason it would be you.
Tt has three votes, tt has not come back to post, people ARE defending tt etc etc.
Stop talking around people's posts and what THEY have done and talking about wifom scenarios it's bad play regardless of your alignment.
You should pick a person to mafia read and post why they are mafia for reasons rhey have done. I know I am town. Why would I say "oh yeah I am defending TT so he must be mafia being defended"? No, I don't know the meta. That doesn't make my point invalid. What are you even arguing here, that since nobody is defending him that he is still scum that the scum aren't trying to defend? Otherwise what is your point with WIFOM? No idea what you are even calling me out for here with 'talking around posts'. If you are defending him and are town then it goes to say that your entire point about mafia should be defending him if he's mafia is irrelevant because town can also defend him. Wifom seems to be the entirety of your argument for not voting a scummy guy. Everyone should look at my logic and say if it's right and sheep it because tt is mafia or wrong and he's not and PROVE why. Also vivax why have you let damdred be there saying tt's mafia meta is to afk when you just saw him afk as town? Mafia are not going to stand by and let one of their own die on Day 1. Several people have said " oh I don't find the TT case convincing" so it's not like the case is so airtight that the scum will give up if TT is scum. So the utter lack of scum defending him or pushing for a different train doesn't make sense. How do you know those people aren't mafia???? I don't. What I was saying there is that there is enough doubt about TT's alignment that scum have room to make a more coordinated defense of TT/ attack of someone else. And I don't see why they wouldn't because bussing is a horrendous scum move.

Hardly anyone else has managed to get anywhere near the number of sheep votes as TT has. "guys does anyone else notice how many people wanted to sheep that wagon? isn't that a little weird to you all?" I recommend especially that you read the third quote in the spoiler. The important thing to get from this is that Calix did not have TMI by picking the correct answer out of many equally valid possibilities; he picked the simplest, most logical answer from several possibilities and was correct. How long are we going to pretend that it is scummy to be skeptical of a wagon because it formed with little resistance? That is a major trait of a mislynch. The following quote doesn't give me anything that overtly proves Calix didn't have TMI, but the vibes from it are very good.

(I know you are voting HF, I am just talking generally) If I'm mafia with TT here, I sheep hf's wagon just like I'm doing now, hell I even come up with semi-independent reasons like I'm doing now. The entire point is that IF hf is town, no mafia team is going to risk defending TT here. This means that a) TT could very well be mafia and b) the people defending him if he is, do not have to be mafia (in fact I'd argue that people actually trying to pull away from the lynch are more likely to be town). "If I'm mafia" - Stopped reading because self-meta on your scum game is useless when you are obviously aware of it and can change how you act accordingly. And since I'm the person who is hardcore defending TT, that parenthesis part could be a subtle pocketing attempt from you. I don't think I can do anything about TT's train. Nobody seems to find anything I say worth listening to. The last line screams of trying to get people off the wagon. This was clearly not to get town cred but rather to prevent a mislynch.

There are 6 people in this game who are for sure town and it's safe to say Calix is one of them. Everyone needs to see that so we can focus on solving the game. Yea all three scum were on Tictock, or maybe in 1%-chance world it's that wagon and Vivax. Either way pull your heads out of your asses. Specifically you Superbia.

I just came up with an AMAZING new Grackpot theory.
I don't really want to go into it right now, so stay tuned before the day post for the new iteration of Grack reads.
HF was phase 1.
Now I've officially moved on to phase 2. And 2 is greater than 1
Let's just say on a scale of 1-Koshi I feel about this much:
