There are a couple of things that don't make any sense in any world for what i know of town!Xatalos.

I can even let it slide what i said before about his treatment of me but these things make me very very uncomfortable.

1) Xatalos calling AMG mafia. Now let's imagine a scenario where AMG is mafia. It's D2 and he subs into the game. There is a lynch wagon on his scumbuddy Eden. Now what is the route you take as scum? You call Damdred and Xatalos scum (that worked out well for me already on D1, right?). Then you call Eden town and hard-defend him without having any answer to the most important question of "why did ritoky die then" (when this HAS to be exactly why you killed ritoky, or at least 100% why the town thinks you killed him)? What are your %'s of making the play work? I'd say around 0. Obviously you can't know for sure, but that's what i would assume if i was AMG and mafia. Then, after deciding "wow this is my terrific strategy" you stay up most of the night discussing the game with me. For what? For that your scumbuddy gets lynched regardless almost all of the time? Does this sound like a good strategy for mafia? No it doesn't. It's a very terrible strategy because you cannot assume the outcome that arguing against the tide (when you actually WOULD KNOW Eden's alignment - you know you're bullshitting) makes people think you're town, in fact the assumption is the opposite. Somehow Xatalos thinks "pushed against Eden lynch" or "didn't help Eden getting lynched" makes AMG mafia, which is very on surfeace -level thinking and show no depth at all. Like seriously, read very carefully what i wrote here:

Seems like disfo had about the same thoughts on AMG as I did.

But you just said "AMG even pushed against Eden lynch" which has been your main reason for scumreading hi -> try to save Eden. And you agree with disformation in "AMG didnt really look like he was trying to get his scumread lynched".

Those two are 100% mutually exclusive.



2) Xatalos' actions at the EoD 1. This is what Xatalos is basically saying:
- "I didn't want to lynch an asset so i voted for my weaker scumread Malongo (and Tumble)"
- "I wasn't sure if rayn is scum so i didn't push hard on his lynch"
- "Then i actually thought rayn is scum and wanted to lynch him"

Like i can't see a world where all those things are true. First of all all the information on me had been there for hours. There is no way Xatalos comes to a conclusion 15min before the deadline that "rayn must be mafia and now we are going to lynch rayn" when he should have made the conclusion way earlier, especially since he claimed that Malongo is not his strongest scumread and i literally cannot be mafia with Malongo. The only explanation i can think of is that for whatever reason he stuck on Malongo first. Then he for whatever reason wanted to try some shenanigans on Tumble. This point he realizes "shit i have just called Tumble mafia ONLY if rayn is mafia so now i have made a mistake". Then he basically has no other option left than to try lynch me, because that's the only possible solution where he doesn't look terrible (if people don't figure it out). But that doesn't make sense either since he claimed he wasn't sure of his reads and "didn't want to lynch an asset" - which he now claims is a reason why he switched back to Malongo. The whole fucking thing doesn't make any sense unless the vote and push on me is nothing but damage control after a mistake.

If people don't understand this i will explain it with quotes tomorrow. I can't sleep so i decided to write this now for tomorrow.


3) this one here:
On March 23 2017 06:44 Xatalos wrote:
rayn, were you trying to roleblock someone? Who? Calix was kind of the obv-save so...

This is super terrible because no smart person should even for a second consider me not offensive jailing. Defensive jailing has 0% chance of success because i get 100% roleblocked. The only way i can do anything, or make anything work is if i hit exactly the roleblocker, before them, and exactly the roleblocker sends in the NK (so like 1% with dumb scum, but still better than 0%).


4) I also believe there is a chance with the Calix kill that Xatalos is playing for "lynch a townie -> call the blues mafia". The whole game he shows doubt on my alignment. Hell even after N1 he wants to wagon ME instead of Eden, because of "counter-wagon". What fucking counter-wagon?!?!? Again, why do you need counter-wagons when you think someone is mafia? I have to think about this more tomorrow but it is not totally out of question, in fact, based on Xatalos' play so far i think there is a fair chance of him thinking it can work or even be the best strategy.

to rayn and whoever else switched to eden at EoD [despite supporting the xata wagon and giving no indication earlier of wanting to switch], why did you do that

In your last post thought Xalatos was possibly townie with a few question marks.

Now you're trying to solve the game using Xata as confirmed scum to find the 3rd?

Those are reasons why you think I didn't think something completely through before posting, not reasons why I'm scum, rayn.

As scum I'm far more careful what I post and certainly don't post unfinished thoughts into the thread.

3 doesn't even make any sense. I asked you who you offensively jailed, and again you refused to answer. I didn't ask who you defensively jailed. Besides why would this ever make me scum? Same with 4. I've clearly shifted away from doubting you to a major extent so who would push you then? I already explained 2 at some point. 1 is just your opinion vs mine.

Note that I do agree AMG's play is a bit odd if scum. POE just doesn't leave room to throw him into townpile.

The thought never crossed your mind that my expectations of your scumgame are also different compared to others when you complained about my "treatment of you"? Obviously I'm more careful of you. By the way, as scum I've almost always aimed to pocket you...

In any case, I post much more and much more carelessly as town. Of course it's not going to be always as logical compared to my times as scum/3P.

Think of it this way. In Diplomacy it's basically a FFA of 3P's. You have to carefully consider everything you say, so your messages will naturally be more planned out. Here as town you don't need to consider anything else than how to solve the game / have some fun. It's very different.

By the way.

If there is any blue in this game, please claim after all. 2 checks + self-clear + rayn-clear should be enough. Alternatively catching rayn early would be a high reward.

Meh I can't claim cop here. It's just not useful. The real cop needs to come out even if he has no checks and sits within df, Xatalos, Onegu, AMG. Or has 2 checks within these names.

I need to work hard today though. But I'll find time to play and figure this out. My head is so clouded though. First bad game in like 5 months. Or longer :/
I had a good night of sleep.

I would like to hear an answer to this too Tumble.
I'll read DF's answer to my question a bit later when i get home. I have to look at his whole filter to figure out if it makes sense or not.

Xatalos when you're that self-aware of your meta you have to understand i can't just take your answer on face value. I am not sure at all you wouldnt make that play i described as mafia. I am not sure at all WHY you would do things you did at EoD1. Sure you can say "i didnt think it through" and it "makes sense" but i am not sure if i believe that. If youre town lets scumhunt then and talk about what people ACTUALLY did and not just "they are acting like X and that means Y".
