OH SHIT! I FORGOT ABOUT THAT GAME AFTER MY CP DIED! .... Um... + Show Spoiler + So...How... How did that Game turn out? In short, After day 1, I went to slay RLVG, and a lookout caught me doing so. I was then lynched the following day. That left you, the traitor, and an empty slot (Was replaced twice) as the last scum members. Firebringer who was replacing our teammate was sent to kill Kovath; the lookout once again spotted him in action. Seeing as you were inactive and that it was 9v2 (including you), scum decided to concede. It was a bad game all around: The setup was bad, 5 of the 15 slots were empty, and scum played like Eggy. Don't bother reading what you've missed, not worth it. Eh, idk why PRs were in that game. Towqn could already get at most 4 confirm townies off a scum lynch. Also i can vonch for them being active Before playing here, some players must go through the procedure of answering a few questions designed to establish their general ability to answer questions and assess their abilities. Shapelog amusingly tried to mimic this procedure in an attempt to take a jib at me (and most likely at you). Rels does the security checks for newcomers. Most of these questions are designed to perfection the game of mafia. I will consult with kitaman afterwards who is the head of the database department and is developing an automated behaviour processing system with the help of Palmar who is the assistant who codes words per post algorithms and similar minor things. Let's start: 1. There are two guardians, one by each door. One guardian always tells the truth, and the other guardian always lies. What one question can you ask a guardian to find out which door leads to heaven? 2. If you would be an animal, what would you be? 3. If I posted this post in game, what would you think my alignment was? 4. What's the size of your ego expressed in football fields? You may choose to express it in bathtubs if you so wish. 5. Think about the colour red for 10 seconds. Then name a tool. First, You stoled it from me. Second, these questions are about as useless as Ness questions in outlaw.

There is no way to muti-quote things on TL (since the site wasn't made for mafia) You will have to Ctrl:C and v each quote into 1. We make it up for our filter system though. | ||

It's pretty late for me so if I randomly drop off, don't be surprised. Town doesn't have blue roles this game. Blue roles are spirts. That is why I asked if dead person could related the spirts qt. Personally, if your about to get lynch, state who you think is top scum and why. Do so before night. That way we know who your top scum are, and you don't have to waste stating it. Then, tell us what the QT thinks, since they are confirmed town (or mafia). Also helps out, because even if the message gets changed, we will at least know the flip person's top scum. 2nd point: Yeah, that too. | ||

The "Death Whisperer" is a heavy counter to TPRs. + Show Spoiler + Death Whisperer Win condition: Win anytime living mafia members equals or outnumbers living town members. Ghost curse: Once per game at night, you can target one player. If that person is protected by the benevolent ghosts' protection, he will die. If that person is targeted by the spirit's KP, he will protected from it. Death tracker: Spectral (can be used even if dead). If you successfully killed someone with your ghost curse, you will have access to the Benevolent Ghost QT after your death. You won't be able to post in it. If you successfully protected someone with your ghost curse, you will have access to the Vengeful Spirit QT after your death. You won't be able to post in it.] Using a TPR ability unwisely can backfire terribly if countered by the DW. Do you think TPRs should act every night? If we ML today, the Vengeful spirit should not use his vigilante shot today as the DW will 100% target one of the three mafias. He has no reason to target townies as the Benevolent Ghost won't exist by then. Therefore, using the sole vigilante bullet N1 has the most chance of it going to waste. It is preferable to do an alignment check on any player and keep the shot for the following nights where the DW won't necessarily target a mafia. Eh, I mean Death Whisperer is a counter to TPRs. It is basically their blue snipe I guess (Death -> suspected target for heal -> dead person) No matter what about blue roles, we shouldn't really try to direct the spirts actions to much. Since mafia is in the thread rofl. I think we can expect the spirts to play smart, and prevent us from giving mafia TMI in regards to what a Veg/Ben spirt will do (since Death exist) | ||

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. This doesn't work due to the mafia change LW mech. I mean, (and this is for everyone), tell me if this LW is altered. "Look at the posts between X-Y (or player list number), the suspect with a Check is hiding there." | ||

I have my own thoughts below but would like your taken on this. While I feel like he was misrepresenting what I said (with saying that I was 'suggesting we should No Lynch' when that's not possible and 'you haven't given any ideas on how to communicate with the dead') I can see someone trying to be provocative to get a reaction or move the conversation in a more productive direction so I'm not confident in my read of him. I'm also biased by default so I'm not sure wherever my scum lean on him is due to the "he's pushing me so he must be trying to mislynch me" bias or because he legitimately strawed my points.

But basically, it boils to how vivax phased it (and I associated it with how scum would phase something) Especially the second one. I made a remark about it too, but the way Vivax made it sound it to me was like he thought TT was mafia for trying to act like Trofl's opening, since it got him (trofl) Town reads.

But it wasn't the case, so I posted it and colluded NAI, so I could still debate it with people (aka get others views) like how you and me are. | ||

Why did this arouse me? You secretly have a fetish for demanding women who uses the word "fixation". I still think TPRs should use their actions every night. Agreed that Vig shouldn't shoot N1 - it's a mid-game thing given that Vig cannot shoot if the game hits five players. Pretty sure someone already said that TPR-directing = bad so won't harp on about that. You get a Sheriff-Vig when someone is lynched, yes? They can use their LW to say "I checked X". On N2, the next person to get lynched can say "X is inno/ guilty" (in retrospect, telling people who the Sheriff checked N1 is kind of dumb but that's what I was saying at the time, not implying that town had TPRs before N1) Vig cannot shoot n1. Vig is person(s) who are NK. They can check too. One who is lynched are doctors. Already talked about how hard it is to tell difference in altered LW. [quote]I will say that I do not like your slot.

Calling a waitress at Hooters "strippers" nullifies the resultant theme. I already talked about TT's post (aka I stated I didn't really like how he set himself up to be afk already). In regards to Mafia WIFOM, I couldn't tell you. I rolled 2 games with scum TT, and they were months/last year. I really didn't pay any attention to how much he WIFOMs people. I am waiting till he comes back and posts (if he does) and go from there. | ||

So far: Damdred hasn't done enough really to warrant anything higher then null. Kinda weak rn. NU included Damdred into scumville. Made my opionon on their fight (NU and Cal) clear. Prob. reread it tomorrow. Vivax also in there in terms of reenvu. Though I have read some of his posts again, and see my earier grievance becoming less and less. Experienced players cannot give reads on me: + Show Spoiler + Maybe because of what I did to damdred in storm/all last mafia games. ![]() And thats it | ||

-NU's reaction to tumbles post bout confusement is a line with mine reaction. points. -Cal is similar too. About Cal, I thought of something last night. Tinfoil here, but cal is Mafia's Necromancer, and wanted to establish a format to make changes to LW's more believable. This could explain the focus on LW's on the entro post.The only thing against this, and that she did mention the risk of Necromancer changing. TT- The Setup stuff kinda bores me, but I should prob read through it eventually kus it sparked a bit of discussion. Kinda getting town feels from both of NU and Calix atm though. My thoughts on Setup, the dead should make their own calls on how to use their powers and Last Wills are not that important since the dead can be just as wrong as anyone about stuff. Basically the only setup thing that's important to living players imo is being able to see who the dead are voting for as that gives us insight into their thoughts. In general though it is best to approach this game as a straight all vanilla game with some potential information coming from dead players. Ok post that mimics my thoughts earlier.

The only thing that could in my mind, make TT town. Is nothing that TT has done. It falls upon voting logic. The highest counter wagon rn is at 2 votes, while TT is at 6. Which indicatives to me, that either mafia is bussing TT, or Mafia is fine lynching TT due to him being town. And that's it. Which is just awful to go off of. TT's filter is Crap honestly. Reading it doesn't give me too much rn to go off of. Nothing in TT's filter feels majorly town. I am going to put my vote on him. And then catch up during the night phase. | ||

From what I see, I actually see TT getting talked into his pool as a P-lynch, and voted TT since he was the worse of me/TT/Super for PL reasons. The way I see it: On September 11 2016 04:09 Skynx wrote: Show nested quote + On September 11 2016 03:56 Holyflare wrote: On September 10 2016 09:58 Holyflare wrote: No it's actually not at all.

Who posts something like that after acknowledging that it already exists but not knowing their content? Mafia. Perhaps you should actually read his god damn filter from his town game instead of harping on about how it's bs and overplayed when it's literally night and day differences between substantial reads from his town game and simple "Yeah I like that post" bs in this game. It's hilarious that you've actually for some reason looked at two of my previous games and ignored absolutely every other game I've ever played and concluded that I never do these kind of pushes as town when vivax has literally told you 3-4 times that I am this aggressive as either alignment whenever I want to be.

Your case is based on meta, shitposting, assumption and policy. 2 of those above can be applied to 4 I've mentioned earlier, they are essentially same with ticktock with exception that they actually posted stuff.

I still fully expect Palmar to show up in some capacity before the deadline, and hopefully he can weigh in on what I've written about HF. My heart glitters as you mention my name. But on a serious side, grac I think sky is interesting he's usually so... closed with who he wants to lynch bit he has such a wide variety keeping,hi a options open. What do you think of this? lol opportunism at best. Give me a clear lynch target for today ser Damdy. Here's the thing we have a list (in my mind) of mostly lynched today and tt is probably the least bad and it's all,going to,be based on meta and strange posts. It would go like Tt Shape/super And then there is a wide gap and cal is super low, with grack and you to a lesser extent. The rest I either want to,ignore or think are town mostly I mostly agree. TT, Shape, Super and Palmar are all plynches. Whats bothering me and what I've been trying to say over last few pages is TT is not as good of a lynch as other 3 because he is TOTALLY afk. Rest have been posting with no content whatsoever. Super just trolled and commented on setup for 3 entire pages of filter. Palmar said he will just not read or post. Shape posted walls of text that says nothing at all. But we are tunnelling on 1 guy that is actually away while 3 people we have more data that reliably suggests that they did jack shit all game but no one even considers them. So if we are dealing with these points: Somehow TT sneaked into his lynch pool without previous notice. It's a big contradiction considering he disagreed with HF. He says that HF is painting TT as scum, but then votes him and says that it's a PL? I understand that he didn't have a strong scum-read, but voting someone who he acknowledges has aa shitty train on him is brutally bad when there were other possible PLs he himself proposed. I mean He disagreed with TT being a scum read. He thought TT was a P-lynch and that was it. He points our what he thinks are errors in HF's read, and states that TT was a P-lynch. And he ended up on TT due to my filter being better (or not as bad?) and over super due to i think a discussion he had with Damdred. Personally. I can follow the train of though on Skynx vote. I feel it would of been better if he had voted damdred or someone like that then TT, but it isn't like a major contradiction or anything. Honestly a better point to make, is that late into the cycle, his pool was mostly P-lynchs, with the only one not being it was Damdred | ||

In fact he complains about people ignoring the other lurkers and never really brings much of anything worth talking about up just says the filter he checked wasn't that bad. Then he bites someone who he really shouldn't given his filter. So no it's scum The difference is that you are not confrontational at all in your posts. As if you didn't want to make enemies. That just fits with you town-hunting rather than scum-hunting. Why is it scummy then? You make a point. However, you never really brought anything worth talking about either. Does that make you scum as well? How is this making him scummy? Confrontational is a nai trait scum can be nice or mean and,the same as town. This is a non point I have talked about whatever I wanted to,when,I was in,thread, the fights. Reads, my read on tt most,of,these things were ignored by you however. Idk if voting is mandatory where you are, but jumping on at the end,has the least amount,of responsibilities and,if he brought,hf near tie and hf,flipped even more heat would be on him. His decision making,process does not portray town trying to push or figure out anything. Like what he said about ignoring super shape etc but never pushes then himself and votes the person he was upset we were pushing. That's not town. That is kinda why it is a bummer for me to not see him vote you. Cause at least then. then he is actually pushing a vote onto you. And others were on the wagon as well, so it wasn't like it didn't exist. From reading his filter, it felt like he was trying to consolidate onto someone. Hence why he voted on TT, as a PL. He didn't like the reasoning why HF thought he was scum sure. But ultimately, knew TT was a decent PL due to inactivity. Overall, I can understand how he got to point A to B. | ||

And he was pre try side lines during,the lynch and most of the day (slight hypocritical at parts of,me,to say). Do you disagree? And tumble is better than what I have read bout of him so far. And he was town the last game, where he acted exactly like he is now. I reread a further back. and I see what you mean by the [u] part. From page 2 - 4 I found Several remarks of him stating Me/Palmar/Tumble or who ever was missing or not posting or what ever. But I have to agree that he really didn't do much about them, other then just throw out posts about it. Shade posts? but honestly why bother? In actives would get lynch anyways for PLs.

Not seeing anything particularly eye-popping aside from the following: - Names aren't allowed in Last Wills but if you wanted to reference a player (e.g., say you're a Sheriff-Vig who wanted to say "I checked X/ this player is innocent/ guilty") then you could quote some post numbers by said player, quote something they said, etc. I don't think LWs will be that useful for the protectives unless nobody died on a certain night because telling the scum who was protected last night in the event of a kill just needlessly gives the scum information on what the healing roles are thinking. If anyone knows what the Doctor roles would even need to tell the town (aside from telling us who they scum-read or something) then I'm all ears. - There's always the chance that the scum can interfere with the message being given. Although they can only rewrite LWs twice, we can't rely on the LWs much 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. - We might want to be careful with policy lynching apathetic/ inactive players or being sloppy with CFDs in general. I've been told that TL is more open to policy lynches compared to where I come from, but since lynched players become Sheriff-Vigs, I think it would be suboptimal play to give lazy players a KPN in the early stages. This point might be moot, however, as I don't know how anyone here plays or if anyone would qualify as policy-lynch material. (save for NU who I wouldn't consider a policy lynch) 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. 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. I like this guy, this is a solid post.

He previously analysed one of TT's posts, and said HF+ things. The problem is....is that i have no clue what the mafia motivation or agenda is for trying to get me/tumble/Palmar lynched over TT, other then the chance me/Tumble/Palmar steps up. And that is it. He is in a spot to push the TT lynch, yet doesn't, and goes back on the earlier points. Now if TT was scum, I would have a reasoning. Skynx was trying to protect scum!buddy TT. But TT was town. There is so little he would achieve by doing it. And it is a High risk, lowish reward to get one of me/Tt/Palmar/U? lynched, and then get lynched for not having anything else. All he would achieve is attention.... idk, the part i looked at made sense, but now that i found the quotes, I am confused on why the switch happen. TLDR: it is off now that I look at it, but I cannot figure-out if it is necessarily scummy, since the mindset doesn't make sense. | ||

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.

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.

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.

That whole 'finding shit that only scum would say' is why I'm not full-on scum-reading Vivax, by the way, because while scum COULD play like him, I don't recall him doing anything that only scum would do. 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.

The answer is no. HF just cannot be arsed to spell words right. It is actually a pivotal point in his play.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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?

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.

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.

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.

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.

Once the votes were skewed to what they became at EoD, I might have gotten concerned, but she was on it much earlier than that. Might lean slight scum for that, but I also recall thinking that many of her posts just felt like frustrated town. Might be able to find some and quote them later. At the moment I'm considering her town. Why did I vote for tt? The narrative HF originally laid out made sense to me, and then tt disappearing after it just reinforced it. At the end of the day, I could still see scum behaving as he had, so my vote didn't change. I didn't see any reason that HF exaggerating his sureness was indicative of the case being bad. Though iirc he later mentions that he no longer had a scum read (or maybe it was just a weaker scum read? Would have to look it up) on tt and was lynching for information at that point. That bugs me. Mostly because I'm not sure how much reasonably confident information we got from the lynch. Maybe that'll come to me when I reread EoD. Who are my scum reads? I'll have to get back to you on that one. My two yesterday were you and tt, which is more that I usually have d1 XD. One was proven wrong, the other I'm currently believing is town. Have to dive some filters and probably reread EoD to develop some more. I also have some thoughts on TW that are almost completely unrelated to this game, and actually take place in an obs QT for another game that he wasn't in as far as I remember, but there are similarities to this game and I was wondering what other people's thoughts were on it. In one of my previous town games I made a case on a suspected scum being town. In the obs QT, it was declared that I was town for doing so by most people present, even if they were unsure of me before. Does anyone feel that this could apply to TW in this game? I could try to find the game, but would have to wait until a few hours after start of day. On one hand, I understand that scum have an easy time town reading people (if they're town) because they know they're town. They know it's from a town perspective because everything has to be. On the other, why defend a high content poster once the thread starts swinging slightly against them if your goal is to get them killed? The ability to defend town is greater, but the reason for doing it seems far less so. I know that these scenarios assume tw scum and calix town, but I'm leaving out the possibility that they're both scum because that would be a hard defense of a scum buddy. Which I guess could happen, but it doesn't feel likely? The scenario feels like either both town or one scum. I needed to ask because it'll be on my mind until it's resolved (think NU's lynchbait comment). Bold are flip floppy when I read it. TW past game I have commented on. Interested to see your scum reads.

First, I don't know where all of this hyperbole is coming from. I don't have much of any opinion on Ticktock. He made 5 meh posts at the start of the game. The point of my post on HF's TT case was entirely in relation to HF because I think I had some valid points to make about HF from that case, which I will try to make clearer. This was my view on TT's posts: On September 09 2016 23:50 Vivax wrote: Definitely not having the confidence HF has on TT based on so little. Remains nullish for me. Really there's not much interesting in there. He makes 2 posts to say that he rolled scum. He makes 2 +1 posts. And then he gives some brief thoughts on the setup. Now, there were three things from Holyflare that I did not like in the push that I alluded to earlier. The first one was this: On September 09 2016 11:10 Holyflare wrote: Read his filter and look at how forced it looks that he's giving out reads such as "I like this post" and similar crap.

Not seeing anything particularly eye-popping aside from the following: - Names aren't allowed in Last Wills but if you wanted to reference a player (e.g., say you're a Sheriff-Vig who wanted to say "I checked X/ this player is innocent/ guilty") then you could quote some post numbers by said player, quote something they said, etc. I don't think LWs will be that useful for the protectives unless nobody died on a certain night because telling the scum who was protected last night in the event of a kill just needlessly gives the scum information on what the healing roles are thinking. If anyone knows what the Doctor roles would even need to tell the town (aside from telling us who they scum-read or something) then I'm all ears. - There's always the chance that the scum can interfere with the message being given. Although they can only rewrite LWs twice, we can't rely on the LWs much 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. - We might want to be careful with policy lynching apathetic/ inactive players or being sloppy with CFDs in general. I've been told that TL is more open to policy lynches compared to where I come from, but since lynched players become Sheriff-Vigs, I think it would be suboptimal play to give lazy players a KPN in the early stages. This point might be moot, however, as I don't know how anyone here plays or if anyone would qualify as policy-lynch material. (save for NU who I wouldn't consider a policy lynch) 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. 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. I like this guy, this is a solid post. Contrast to Skynx here On September 09 2016 07:01 Skynx wrote: Nothing good on tv/twitch and you guys are no fun, I'm offski to bed. First to post, been around, fucks off without saying anything and right about when things start happening. These were the posts in question. Does anyone agree with this assessment? They look like normal posts to me. I've definitely made posts like that as town. The second thing was the focus on the talking about setup contradiction. Contradictions are only scummy if you can show some mafia motivation behind them. I don't see any here. I do, however, think you can pretty easily convince people that someone is scummy for contradicting themselves in some fluff post when their post shouldn't be viewed any differently than any other setup post. And frankly if you do think the contradiction was scummy (which I don't think you should), I will note that it wasn't even much of a contradiction to begin with. His main point was that we should just play the game like everyone is a VT. The third thing was just the sheer certainty from Holyflare: On September 09 2016 10:48 Holyflare wrote: I will never in 1000 fiery years vote anyone other than ticktock today. I mean this is just weird to me. It's entirely possible Holyflare is just really full of his reads but it's still a lot. He's carried out this push throughout the rest of the day (and me by extension.) Now, here are what I view as the mafia motivations for the 3 points: For point #1: He seems to be twisting the filter to try to make it sound scummier than it actually is. For point #2: I think he is focusing on a contradiction that he can portray as scummy when I think he should be good enough to realize that it isn't very alignment indicative. TT said he didn't like talking about the setup and then said something about the setup. So what? For point #3: As town in Onegu 2 he sat back for the start of the day and didn't really push anybody until quite late in the day when he questioned Lunatic. At the end he tried to start a last minute wagon on Glowingbear and was unable to overcome my amazing Kushm4sta squirm case (which failed badly, but his case also failed. Really it was an entire game of fails.) As scum in Star Wars he made an early case on Tumblewood and was more proactive. I do believe that HF could be more inclined to try to put himself in a good position as scum and may have jumped out of the gate a tad bit early. He definitely cares a lot about his mafia record. So these were the points I was trying to make. I'm not even convinced that I want to lynch HF but I still wanted to post something to preempt his shennanies. For the non-lazy, this should be a concise summary that shows why HF is mafia.

SO what we have here is that ticktock has LIED about not reading the posts and has actually skimmed and knows what they've said OR he's not read them and then he's posting useless shit as his only content of the game that he said was boring that he knows full well other people COULD have said <------- and if THAT is the case then he's literally posting just for the sake of posting which, again, is a mafia mindset. Who posts something like that after acknowledging that it already exists but not knowing their content? Mafia. Perhaps you should actually read his god damn filter from his town game instead of harping on about how it's bs and overplayed when it's literally night and day differences between substantial reads from his town game and simple "Yeah I like that post" bs in this game. It's hilarious that you've actually for some reason looked at two of my previous games and ignored absolutely every other game I've ever played and concluded that I never do these kind of pushes as town when vivax has literally told you 3-4 times that I am this aggressive as either alignment whenever I want to be. I have no idea what you're trying to make out of this but all I see is hogwash. Really this seems like a whole lot of effort to try to portray some minor thing as some huge scum slip. The thing that truly solidified the HF read for me was the way he was arguing with me yesterday. The way that he tried to nit pick on any little discrepancy he could find to discredit me gave me war flashbacks to the survivor series mafia game I was talking about earlier. I looked through Onegu 2 again and he didn't do this when I accused him then as town. Now for the Tumblewood part: After the lynch I was starting to realize that it's really unlikely that all 3 mafia voted for TT. I am lumping the Palmar vote as a vote for TT because even though he switched he didn't actually make any effort to lynch a non-TT person.

Then I was reading through Shapelog's filter and he was making a lot of good points. Therefore I am crediting Shapelog with the assist on this one. At first I was thinking, the only person being reasonable in this game is Tumblewood. But then it hit me. THE ONLY PERSON BEING REASONABLE IN THIS GAME IS TUMBLEWOOD! Since when is Tumblewood ever fucking reasonable? When he's bussing! Nobody else in the game has been able to figure out HF yet. I guarantee that if these two rolled scum together they are going to bus heavily. Plus whenever TW has tried to put out a non-HF scum read this game it's seemed bad to me. There's one where he thinks NU could be scum from tone that he rescinds because he can't understand him. There's another on Damdred that he rescinds after Damdred posts a super useless list. And then there's a third on Super for not voting him instead of TT when Super has been calling both TW and TT mafia together.

So that's where I'm at right now. The third is probably somebody super boring like Damdred or Palmar. Head Bang. Tumblewood part is meh. As scum that is when he is reasonable. But as town as well, he is much more resonable then he is right now. Hence my problum with his play. Him not talking to me after I brought up the meta points, the fixation with Super due to his past games voting record, His Tumblewood vs. the World post, Cal. Town case. All to name a few. Have to stop because of Storms. Hopfully be back either tomorrow morning, or late tonight if it passes. | ||

Not really in the mood to go full blown critic mode. But, acknowledge the type of the roles, and have strong enough counters. For example, Town has unkillable full cop that could check each night vs a framer and a 2 time negation (because for mafia, it held no value to change non-checker votes.). Mafia can only stop the Check from going out till Day 4, which would be the last day if only ML and NK's happen. Meaning, the people who mafia were pushing/sus. people will most likely have been checked and revealed on the most influence day. Also DW's can be swing if able to guess save. Good game. | ||
