So the mission failed after all. Now before we even knew if the mission was going to fail we had our two prominent nayvoters EC and super appear back into the game and post as if it were day one.
For me that is way too big a coincidence to happen for both players. Sure I know I am the prime suspect of a spy for pretty much everyone in this game but neither of them posted that much after the first mission was approved and sent out (with me in the team). They only started talking so much when the 4man team was approved. Now of course they will cry vote analysis for this reason but my counter to that is they nayvoted the previous 3 man team too and yet they did not bother to cause such an uproar at that time.
So EC, super: tell us why the 4 man team bothered you so much but the 3 man team you let pass quite easily without much rejections?
Also I think SL and TW are still owing us explanations for yayvoting the 4man team although the team had people they accuse of being a spy.

Do you know the difference between OR and AND? I have my doubts.
Are you using '+' as OR? If so, apologies then...
I use '+' as AND...

Vivax was on the team, not artanis... Also I explained my vote yesterday.
Sicklucker if you don't even know who was on the previous team no one will even consider voting yay for your team... You are so out of the game it's not even funny anymore..

What is wrong with you all? Suddenly Grack is everyone's favourite guy to hit upon? How can anyone turn from most trusted guy (wanted on the team by literally everyone) to the dumping ground of mistrust. And the most surprising thing out of all is how vivax and RT totally forgot their vendetta with each other and suddenly are best buddies (not saying that both of them are spies). I don't think I have ever seen anyone jump up so high in trust as vivax did while being in a failed mission.
Everyone can imagine Grack being the mastermind from the shadows, manipulating everyone from day one. Yesterday most didn't even bother listening to what I was saying how good spies don't play it the conventional way and you believed that I have to be obvious spy 100% (with the exception of RT). If you can consider Grack being a spy then surely silver can be a spy too (not saying that they are but has to be kept in mind). Way too many people are ganging up on Grack (math wise).
Also I even read how SL could be a possible resistance player, now that is one thing I cannot imagine at all. That guy doesn't care one bit about what is happening in the game. He doesn't even know who was sent out for the second mission..
Now I expect I get shit for defending Grack just like RT did yesterday for defending me...

Dude, pay attention to the game!!!

I still disagree with the fact that one of us three are spies. I find it ridiculous how in the positions all three of us were that none tried to abuse the fact to sabotage the mission. I find it much more likely that vivax is in a team full of incompetent spies and tried to solo carry the team to victory. And if we consider how many incompetent players we actually do have in this game (ec, tw, sl, super half of the game) is this really so far fetched?
I disliked his stance of trying to create a rt/sharkie combo and then his sudden switch from grack being his best townbuddy to suddenly rt being his best townbuddy or is that normal play here on this forum when you get accused of being a spy that you turn 180 degrees on him? If that were the case, do people expect me to accuse silver, vivax, grack, sl, tw, super,ec spies since they at one point in the game tried to frame me for being spy?

So in what world are ec's votes weird but Super's are expected (*hint* they completely voted the same way the last two missions).
I don't care whether someone thinks sicklucker is a resistance member by process of elimination or by his non-caring attitude of the game. For me both him and TW have shown us several times that they neither read our posts nor even pay attention to who was sent to which mission. Even if one or both of them are resistance players and we lose because I refused to put them on a mission I don't care. At this point I'd rather have vivax (who is a spy in my eyes) in my team than one of those two. Also, I am saying if resistance is going to lose the game I will blame SL and TW on the loss. I have never seen someone care so little about a resistance game that they actively refuse to participate in our discussions or even PAY ATTENTION to what is happening in the game. Stop pouting and do something ffs.
Also, I don't know how your gaming groups work but each time I play resistance with my friends they completely mix up their playstyle from game to game. I could never say "x is not a spy because that is not how he plays as spy/resistance". Citing old games is like giving your opposing players a fake alibi imo. "Here, look: that is how I usually play resistance -> I could never be a spy".

That is true. I cannot give you negative points for something Grack had asked you to link.
I am just a player who goes into The resistance with a clean plate all the time. I look how players play THIS game and don't think of old games at all. So each time one of you mention that vivax is not the sort of player to do "X" my suspicion of him grows. Because what would be the best play as a spy? Exactly, play like you have never played before. That throws you off completely. I wish I had the assistance of players who have clean slates like me to help analyse vivax. From a neutral point of view everything Grack has said makes complete sense to me and is not the play of a spy.
My biggest point in favour of Grack is: he defended me (that I don't care about personally) and accused a completely new combination of spies (rtani + vivax). Why should any spy do that? He could have just joined the cool guys (silver and vivax) into bullying sharkie and rt as spies and just enjoy his status as top resistance player. But he didn't do that! No way any spy would ever do such a play. That is self suicidal. You really expect a seasoned player like Grack to
1) Don't fail the first mission to gain credibility in order to prepare for a bigger con. -> Yes, absolutely. That is very good spy play!!
2) After 1, throw everything into the wind and go defend sharkie and accuse vivax/RT -> No way in hell, not even a n00b player would do that.

First regarding vivax: Just regard his first few posts.
On January 27 2017 00:58 Vivax wrote: I'm thinking that maybe the first nomination should immediately pass without a 24 hours discussion phase. That way we actually have something to discuss, the outcome, as there is no lynching and otherwise we will just be talking about who should go on a mission without any actual arguments to support a decision.
Like in voice I think no one was intent to oppose anyone on the first team anyway, when we played. It was mostly just seeing if it fails or not, there wasn't anything to discuss.

First he starts with "lets's just auto-accept the first nomination as that doesn't matter at all". Then he nays the first team and mentions that he has no problem with the nay voting game at all and he can keep doing that for a while. Then he is suddenly fed up with the nay-saying and wants that we all yay a team. Nothing too suspicious but for me it is just one of the things that pile up.
Next thing is how he regards people. He used to be always very suspicious of Grack and has for a long while even considered him a spy. But then he nominates a team which has not only me but also Grack in the team, also putting me into the team was done almost offhandedly. Also he never really explained at that time why he suddenly stopped suspecting Grack. Then the first mission passed and Grack is top resistance for him together with silver and the obvious spy has to be me. Not only that, rt and me have become a spy combo based on accusations that barely made sense. Each post I made to defend myself he just ignored and practically defended with "you have to be a spy, I ignore the rest of what you say." But then he loses the support of Grack (support he actually never really had but vivax and you, silver, kept repeating that he has to frame me of spy) and rt and he become best buddies out of nowhere and Grack is the obvious spy (with a smaller suspicion of me). He keeps switching suspicions around as he thinks they suit HIM the best.

Also, you have to understand that we don't all play like you and your friends and you should stop comparing the two.

I get that. I just don't believe that any of the 3man mission had a spy in it and vivas has to be the saboteur.

Also my main point of all the things I posted is not defending Grack as resistance. It is that no one considers vivax a spy at all. I can understand that you don't want to believe in a good Grack anymore but how does that make vivax automatically a resistance player?!
And don't come to me with crap about how his past play proves that he is not that kind of player. Or how he has played makes no sense of spy play. WELL HELLO THERE neither does Grack's play.
But Grack is an obvious spy -> Vivax is not?!

-He put forward an all Town team as a spy and left himself off when he easily could of added himself.
-He risks ika and I adding another Town member to the team-he has no way of knowing we would pick him and make a gamethrowing mistake as a spy.

I also very much like rtanisouls list except that superbia would be higher in mine, and grack is more of a null for the point he made about tumblewood which seemed perceptive to me, but can come from spies as well I guess.
Here's my suggestion that doesn't have me in it.
superbia/silverika/tumble
My next step would be to ask rtanisoul if they're fine with this.
Grack was null point for vivax, not resistance

Regarding 2) - he added before the game started not to put himself on the team, he CAN'T go back on his word. If he does, he is AUTOMATICALLY a spy to everyone I hope? - What risk? He even asked you what team you would suggest to put up. He practically said "I trust you what you do. Tell me what to do" Don't tell me that didn't give him bonus points in your view. As you can see not including himself gained him massive resistance points from everyone with the exception of me. - Why? Because his spy teammates suck.

I mention it only because not mentioning it would be withholding information about what has happened.
If I didn't mention his defense of me I bet you that there would be at least one person who would say "oh sharkie, you defend grack only because he defended you. Why don't you mention that he defended you?"

On the other, I feel like Vivax has made a bunch of plays much less likely to come from a spy than Grack has. Mainly the not putting himself on a mission (you mention he said he wouldn't from the start, my argument would be why would he bring it up to begin with? Plus you can backtrack on your words anyway like Grack has regarding not mentioning what he'd vote for) and the whole play with switching me in for you when he was widely townread that didn't make much sense. As for silver not putting me on the mission: At the time when Vivax made the nomination, it was impossible for him to know that. It would be a very big gamble if he were mafia. I don't think these suspicions were loud enough at the time Vivax nominated his mission that he could be reasonably certain he'd be picked for the next mission instead of us but I could be misremembering.
So your answer is practically yes but you don't want to admit it. XD

Since I am running out of people to add in the team, currently if I had to nominate a team I'd propose: RtaniSoul/Sharkie/Silverika/Super
I cannot add vivax as he is my prime suspect and if I add Grack the team won't happen anyway. And out of all lazy players super seems the most likely candidate for resistance I guess?
