This is my first game here and I'm not really sure how things get started off here but I'm wondering if everyone could share their alignment preference. Would help me see how high I need to set the bar when reading them. I prefer town. Mostly shit-posting until someone does something scummy/ dumb and then the game just goes from there. I am going to take a wild bet and guess that the majority of players, myself included, will prefer town ![]() | ||

Okay, I'm starting to think you're mafia from your reactions here. Nothing to do with what you're saying, really, it's more that you sound very tense and defensive and like you have a massive stick up your arse for no real reason once people started engaging with you. It's a different vibe from what I get from Damdred and Xatalos who seem more chill and willing to get shit done. ##vote disformation | ||

Yeah, I can see a world where a scum!Blue says that to try and appease someone engaging with him/ her. Not sure though, would appreciate it if they looked at the filters in the OP and used that to give a read on someone? If they're having a hard time keeping up, ofc. | ||

Scum typically lurk (at least more often than not) and I've scumread people in the past who answer irrelevant fluff questions without participating in the major discussion in the thread at the time especially early on in the game. 2. Koshi asked me a question. 3. I ignore everything else (the discussion between Xatalos and Damdred for instance) and respond to that pretty much instantly. 4. This shows I was reading the thread and refreshing it fairly often even if I'm not commenting. That's more often than not something scum do although there were extenuating circumstances here. 5. Koshi picked up on it and asked why I was lurking. That showed me he was on the lookout for possible scum even outside the major thread of discussion. So, I think he's probably town. It's not solid but that's the best read I have this early on. 6. Damdred I think missed the subtext entirely. He just threw out a shallow read "oh, he's appeasing someone who engaged him so he could be scum." It's just an easy read on someone he thinks would be an easy target. He doesn't really wonder why I townread Koshi or even straight up ask me. Why are you townreading Damdred? Tah for the explanation, it's good to see where you're coming from. I'm not spotting any logical inconsistencies in your logic so I have no problem with your Koshi interaction atm. As for Damdred, it's mostly tone. He's chill, not defensive or overly antagonistic or trying to blend in or be disruptive. And he looks like he's trying to get shit done ITT. That's the gist of it, basically. | ||

![]() disformation is where it's at. He was on the defensive the entire time while everyone else hasn't been once they've climbed out of their shells. (this was kinda why I wanted Koshi's take on the disfo/ Xat/ DD thing but oh well) | ||

It's not really based on filter-diving or whatever. I just feel like everyone who is talking right now is posting without an agenda and is just saying what they have so far and is being reasonable and helping the town. So imo we shouldn't lynch among Xat/ DD/ Koshi/ Blue today. Does this sound really premature? Maybe but that's my impressions of the 'atmosphere' of the game so far so I'm pretty confident here. Don't feel like the chat is very mafia-influenced right now. If this doesn't make sense then ask away. I feel like a hippie right now xD | ||

Kinda surprised you haven't picked up on how incredibly defensive disformation was tbqh. His opening posts were blendy, then he segued into a hard-to-follow discussion, then reacted poorly to my 'questioning' and then fucked off. I don't see how Damdred is comparable. | ||

How is that 'since dis is going to go for a bit' line bad? If he said that and then shit-talked disformation then I'd see your point but all Damdred does is give reads. That seems more town to me. Pretty weak imo. | ||

@Koshi, your only remotely valid point is that Damdred hasn't talked much about disformation so I will await his response there. Otherwise I stand by what I said earlier. | ||

But the only pressure you put against disformation was some cynical comment somewhere. Which wasn't the worst when I first read it. But meh. Not sure if I like it now. And then he leaves and you still don't share your read on disformation? Just lazy townreads on who attacked him. Meh. I dislike it. I disagree with the bolded. He didn't give any indication as to why we were town-reads. His opening line does not correlate with the next line. They are given separately. Given that this is the crux of your argument here, I think your conclusion is misguided and elusive. "Meh meh" kind of thing. | ||

It means that it's not based on any particular post or grounded in logic. It's also not something that I did a lot when I was mafia with you so that's just factually incorrect. The fact that you're trying to sell that as me 'backtracking' is a stretch so big that you'll be placing first in the Olympic Gymnastics. | ||

And what do you think of DF? I think his posts on me are fucking terrible but I'm incredibly biased and it's also possible that DF came out of that mafia game and now thinks he knows everything about my scum meta.

You equated his playstyle with Koshi's in the scum QT last game, and I can kinda see the similarities: brash, in your face, takes charge etc. He's also quite good at it, so I don't really understand the scum!rayn motivation to trolling early on, unless he just doesn't give a shit for some reason. I always feel like mafia is in the best position if they control the topic of conversation, which he hasn't even tried to do. He's also not helping town at all, so although I have some theorycraft of optimal mafia play, he's super null I also see it as null, just mildly annoying. It would be an extremely lame scum tactic but that's about it. You seem to remember the scum Skype chat better than I do. I can't remember what I said in that, lol.

I also don't see how this makes you town as opposed to it being NAI. I don't want an answer to that btw. Just stop bitching/ OMGUSing and actually contribute something. This would literally address half of my case against you which is that you're responding to people but not doing anything. FWIW I picked up on you because it initially felt like you were blending, then when I was reading the chat, you stuck out to me due to your tone compared to everyone else and I pushed there. Simple stuff. "most of which ended in her calling everyone town" Explain scum motivation for calling multiple people town this early on and stating that I do not want to lynch them today.

Damdred Xatalos DeepBlueSea89 Koshi + Show Spoiler + Even if you think Damdred/ Xatalos are mafia, they're still doing stuff and that's better than 90% of the players so killing them on D1 is sub-optimal play. raynpelikoneet + Show Spoiler + Mostly for his Batman post where he takes some stances on the players. Malongo + Show Spoiler + Initially liked his paranoia over the trains (having two tight wagons this early is notable) but would have to see more elaboration on this idea to tell for sure. [Eden1892/ Onegu/ Rels] + Show Spoiler + I don't consider claims to be AI. Tumblewood + Show Spoiler + I feel like his posts have more mafia motivation than the other nulls (e.g., popping in, giving some easy town-reads and then criticising Damdred's town circle - it's more of a mafia narrative than a town one atm but nothing definitive). darthfoley + Show Spoiler + I'm biased towards scum-reading darthfoley so I'll try to give him a fair shot when he appears again. disformation + Show Spoiler + Same here. I am going to let disformation do whatever and focus elsewhere for the time being. | ||

I think it's just super weird way to go about it especially without explaining why I'm wrong on the vets I wanted to town read. Bottom of null for me. As for your question xata, he just has no deviation from his story idk if I see scum doing it without trying to backtrack meh. Also where did deep go, just kinda peace out once people stopped suspecting him and hasn't been back. Not saying lunch able just worrying.

On one hand I kinda like him coming in being like "your wagons suck, imma make my own wagon with black jack and coke", on the other nothing he really says has a whole lot of substance. Like incredible hard to tell if he is town, really not liking the wagons, or if he is scum not wanting to comment on them. Do you have any other reasons to scum-read DF outside of him ignoring your discussion? I would like to see DF/ Malongo get stuck in more but that is about it. On the one hand, deviating from the status quo gets Malongo attention. On the other hand, he's just voting for raynpelikoneet because of his early-game trolling (which reminds him of another game). So he's not risking much there since there's no pressure for him to persuade people to vote in that direction and it doesn't help his stated "don't lynch Damdred/ disformation" goal. It's weak. | ||

It basically feels like forced/fake aggro. Pushing a pool of players with any reason, no matter how (in)significant, just to push them. 1) The Damdred part is very weak. First of all, it's a bit too much to say that Eden's opening was obviously 100% NAI. In addition, even if it was 100% NAI, it's not a scummy thing to ask people for opinions on a sudden "big event". Their reaction could be possibly more significant than the event itself. Especially if there isn't much else to talk about yet. 2) On second thoughts, the Malongo part isn't that bad. Just not strong/convincing. 3) As for the points on me... I'm not sure how not decrypting his roleplaying posts or "not having an agenda" are scummy things to do. I would think the scum team would be much more likely to do either of those. I assumed the votes were troll votes since they were unreasoned and accompanied by Murloc sounds. (Rayn: I must have missed Koshi town reading you. Not sure if it was before my post though. In any case, an exception doesn't overrule the general sentiment.) -> At first I was half-convinced rayn was scum, but now I'm not sure again. I thought this post by Xatalos was really townie since his progression from "rayn's mafia" to "wait, not so sure" throughout the post seems genuine. This disfo/ Xat thing seems incredibly overblown. I hope we're finished with that now, lol. Anyway, I'm a bit conflicted at the moment. On the one hand, most players seem townie and are agreeing with each other, having similar thoughts, etc. I can see TW, DF, disformation, etc, being townies. On the other hand, it seems too easy for the low-posters to have the majority of the scummers. Stellar logic here, I know, but whatever. Dunno, maybe I am just paranoid. | ||

But I would still lynch among those four right now since none of them have town potential atm. | ||

So I don't see how Damdred asking a dumb question alone makes him mafia. You've made your point but it lacks that "this is how it helps mafia" point for me to find it persuasive. And I don't see how Xatalos saying that is mafia by itself either. Being wrong isn't a scum tell unless it's done to push some kind of agenda and I don't see that. | ||

Now if every answer is wrong in the first place then Damdred should already have a conclusion or a lead on his alignment withouth the question. The only thing he can do with the answer is to call disformation out. Can you see why this is not a townie thought process? Later on he backs off. This is something that doesn't make him mafia but it makes sense as scum when me and Koshi are already calling him out of it. I don't see any substance in his other posting. I think I see where we're not clicking here a bit. You scum-hunt by looking for ways that people 'can't be town' while I tend to look for things that 'scum are more likely to do/ scum would only do'. So your third line (bolded) 'clicks' with me. Makes some sense from scum POV. Why wouldn't he follow up on that if his intentions were to accuse disformation though? He didn't really care about the early pressure on disformation and didn't vote for him even when Damdred was a leading wagon iirc. I also disagree with the last line. He's one of the more proactive people here imo. That doesn't necessarily make him town but it does make him a poor choice for a D1 lynch when we still have a fair few low-posters. So of your scum reads, Malongo is a better choice for a lynch. | ||

Yet for some reason the conversation plays out as though disformation were talking about Xatalos's reaction to me: ... Calix, why didn't you question disformation further once it became clear that there was a misunderstanding regarding what disformation was saying? Why did you cop out to a tone-based scumread that isn't actually alignment-indicative? Simple - because it wasn't clear. Until you made this post, it didn't even occur to me that disformation might have been talking about Damdred when he made that post.

Fascinating but I see no reason to care about what you think since you're making things more complicated than they are and keep shoving leading questions down my throat. I've already said that disformation stuck out to me due to how he was acting and I voted. Then we argued again over his lack of doing shit. Then he started doing shit on his own and I unvoted. Simple. "that you acknowledged yourself are possibly NAI" You answer your own question with the word 'possibly'.

I don't recall having this much difficulty discerning any feeling about his alignment when he's one of the more active posters in the thread before. Not really sure what to make of it yet, and to be fair to him, my relative disconnectedness from this game compared to past ones on here is probably to blame. I think disformation is lock town if I'm right about Calix. Pretty sure Calix is scum and spewed disfo town. Loved this post by disfo as well: I don't get the Malongo wagon having so many votes. He's a giant blank right now and it's weird that a wagon on a straight null poster got so much traction so quick. Makes me think that there were multiple mafia driving the early discussion and managed to get attention centered on a townie with weak/no thread presence. The alternative is that Malongo is mafia and his team can't do anything to stop the town, in which case this game is easy and I'm not worried anyway. That's about all I got that I think matters right now. If you're already using pre-flip associations and getting tunnel vision re: me before anyone has even flipped then your reads are going to be so off it's not even funny. What do you actually think of Malongo himself? Why exactly he is null to you? | ||

I think his case against me is fundamentally flawed since he assumes that townies have a Specific Way of playing as town but I don't think it's mafia-motivated. Way too much focus on the context and you can see how he thinks. Which means we have quite a problem on our hands re: too many townie-looking people. It's extremely unlikely, statistically speaking, that Rels/ Onegu are two of the mafia so I think we're dealing with a vet or two as mafia. | ||

If not, I can keep doing my thing here and that's fine by me. Your call. I'm not annoyed, that's my charm and wit showing. Swearing =/= anger. My main point on Malongo is that his main action so far (voting Rayn for NAI reasons - trolling) goes against his stated aim of trying to save Damdred and disformation. Why? Because Malongo's reasoning for voting for Rayn is extremely unlikely to persuade anyone to switch off DD/ disfo. He doesn't explain why the individual players are town either. It's like he's pretending to care and look cautious while not ACTUALLY trying to change the outcome. Make sense? And no, I'm not going to make a town case on myself.

I think I might have to reconsider the validity of mind-melding after this game. I've had too many moments where people have agreed with me and vice versa already. Well since three people think my early interactions with you were problematic then the logical conclusion is that I fucked up there, probably with misunderstanding you re: what Eden pointed out.

He isn't doing a lot except for giving town reads and admits to having no scum reads. That's not necessarily scummy though. After all, I am increasingly finding that everyone in my original scum pool looks townie so TW thinking the same way isn't AI. It might be notable that he seems pessimistic (vets are very hard to read, etc, not a productive attitude when a lot of the players are vets) and has yet to make a concerted effort to find mafia or really engage with people to get a feel for them. But he could also feel disheartened that nobody is obvious mafia - I could definitely relate there. Anyway, let me know what you think there. | ||

Just wondering P: Dunno about his tone but then again, I have an easier time when I can actually talk to the person. Like with Rayn, his tone was really good. Eden's didn't feel manipulative either, more focused on accusing his scum-read and being 'witty' than selling anything, really. Anyway, I think we should not lynch TW today then. If he's not actively trying to sabotage the abundance of town-reads (like people initially thought earlier re: that town circle post) then he's asserting himself as someone who isn't disruptive, ergo less likely to be mafia. | ||

I don't recall him really driving conversation or inquisiting people after that. I think disformation often says he doesn't have the best D1 play. I would agree with him this game, but playing poorly has never equaled mafia so no, I never really scum read him. He's in the town side of null category. I've explained my suspicions rather succinctly in my opinion, and what I think of players in the game. My overall list goes something like this: Town Eden rayn Koshi disformation Xata DeepBlue Onegu Rels Calix Damdred Malongo Mafia Something like that What makes you think Calix/ Damdred is SvS? + Show Spoiler + If this is what I think it is, I will actually get annoyed.

Are you saying that I have not been scum-hunting or what? This is also amusing since part of your scum-read is meta-based, yet you say this. | ||

But I don't think his postings were outside scum range for anyone in the game Like I'm really sure you and koshi are always town here. 'isn't as posty as I remember' - I can't even imagine, lol. Blue has said that they have played for several years, not sure that this argument applies either way. I'm not sure how viable pressure on Blue is. It's not like anything he's done is that scummy. 24 hours left so if we try to stack votes and get him to open up, we run the risk of lynching him instead. Or maybe I'm being too pessimistic about activity. There's always Malongo who only TW seems to be town-reading and who has yet to appear. But that's no good either. We need some kind of 'back up' train in case Malongo pops in and makes some really townie posts. Our current problem is that there's no real consensus on who that should be yet. Thoughts? | ||

Anyway, this game seems weirdly EU-centric in terms of activity despite there being a bunch of Muricans. Also I did not like TW's latest posts. For the fact that he said that vets are too difficult to read (in response to them being town-read), his reasons for town-reading the 'non vets' are shitty. With regards to Eden, I don't see how talking about his claim or that question to disformation is AI. Meanwhile Malongo's posts look more like he's throwing out random points without explaining them which isn't the same thing as being 'fickle' (he hasn't changed his positions on anything afaik). I think I'm skeptical of TW since I have no idea what he is trying to achieve with his posts aside from being a limp sock. | ||

Just checked the vote thread and saw that TW actually did vote for DF. The case was already 'meh' to begin with but the progression is odd. DF corrected TW and then TW acknowledges this...but then he puts DF on the same level as the no-posters (why?) and didn't change his vote. For context, this is the only vote that TW has made all day. It's on a single-vote wagon, backed up by debunked reasoning which no sane person will ever follow. It is actually even worse than Malongo's vote since he didn't pretend that raynpelikoneet was a scum-read. Since the only point that TW made on DF was an apparent misunderstanding, him not changing his vote afterwards or explaining why DF still ranks so low on his reads doesn't add up and I would like clarification here. | ||

He hasn't done anything like that as of late even though he has several scum-reads/ question marks in his reads list. 2. Don't think sheeping raynpelikoneet's reasoning is notable. I think his logic for Damdred/ Calix is bad. Pretty sure he's making an assumption about how I would read you just because I said "lol I always scum-read Damdred" But yeah, when you put it that way, I can see what you mean with the odd focus. | ||

But then again, you've been pretty active and contributing very, so I don't have any motivation to pursue the matter. I have explained that already. I found disformation stuck out compared to everyone else because of his tone and voted him based on that. Given that it got shit going, I have no regrets there ![]() I was actually AFK while all of that shit over disformation was going down yesterday but you wouldn't have known that. I said on several occasions that I would reconsider disformation if he started contributing on his own terms, which he did, so I unvoted when I got back. No point in hounding him much more at that point since it would just distract him if he is town, you know? | ||

For Damdred, the best thing that he can do is to scum-hunt normally (which I think he's been doing tbh). As for Rayn, harping on about a post where you essentially accuse someone of scum-slipping is unproductive after a certain point IMO. Since you think they slipped, they have no chance of persuading you otherwise and it just frustrates the accused player, regardless of alignment. And it won't persuade anyone new, as said. So moving onto a different topic/ part of Damdred's posting/ whatever is a great idea for everyone involved! | ||

At least some hours ago. Yeah I did but then Rayn made this town case and Tweedledumb responded with some paranoia on Rayn (the only person who really town-reads him) which looked townie to me. Pretty sure disformation picked up on it too. As for your point about the stale wagon, I would be inclined to agree but none of today's wagons have 'picked up' really. Disformation's took a while to get going while Damdred's has been sitting with 2-3 votes all day. I don't think it means a lot. If Malongo flips town then it becomes a lot more interesting though. But I don't see any reason in his posts to think that, he's been talked about a lot and he hasn't done anything. He's the superior lynch for today by miles. | ||

If he's scum then I would probably look at the AFK bunch. Possible that scum bussed or did nothing but we'll have to see.

Damdred (3) - raynpelikoneet, disformation (0) - Raynpelikoneet (2) - Malongo, Tumblewood, Calix (0) - Onegu (0) - darthfoley (1) - Malongo (6) - darthfoley, Koshi, disformation, Calix, Damdred, Xatalos Tumblewood (0) - Koshi (0) - DeepBlueSea (1) - Onegu Rels (1) - Rels Looking at this, I suspect most of the scum are among the lazy, apathetic voters. Rels, most obvious example since he prod-dodged the entire day. Onegu, just popped in with one scum-read and fucked off again. Eden, horrible read on me -> unexplained vote on Damdred for no apparent reason. I'm not sure on why Koshi voted for Malongo exactly, not clear from his filter. Not lazy, just vague. I'm not actually sure if this vote count is accurate as I thought Tweedledumb voted for Malongo but I haven't double-checked there yet. | ||

BUT the wagon on him would inevitably be a shenanny in an afk thread, and he was by far a more active and potentially useful (if town) player than malongo. losing him as town would fuck us over way more. [in retrospect, the wagon would have had to be composed of people who I trust, so I overblew that concern.] this is why the choice was difficult the end Your point about the wagon gaining a majority early on is more valid now that we know Malongo was town. Uncontested for a good chunk of the day, basically. Why Koshi and Damdred in particular? I can also relate to the last paragraph about potentially losing a more useful town player by CFDing though. I was going to ask why you didn't vote for Damdred but I imagine you would say something similar in response. | ||

I still need to filter-dive Damdred. raynpelikoneet too. I have looked at Koshi's filter and downgraded him to null. His filter is not as good as I thought it was - needs more insightful comments - and he has not done much as of late. As for Eden...
tl;dr: Lots of words being said, not a lot of things being done. | ||

I'm a bit biased because I know he's not the most charismatic fellow in the room and has a tendency of being lynch-bait. Therefore I don't feel like crucifying him for today. He's had a bunch of townie-sounding posts already and he consistently does this when he's being pressured. | ||

But I'm also not sure where all the scum-reads are coming from. Like, what is the overarching scum motivation with his posts? If those people could make better cases that aren't "lol underwhelming" or "teh metas" then I'd appreciate it, thx. Anyway, what I noticed:
Not seeing anything damning here. He said it would be more interesting if Malongo is town but his reads haven't changed post-lynch at all (just the reasons) and sometimes his level of confidence in a read fluctuates without explanation but that is about it so far. Since I didn't find anything scummy (but also nothing amazingly townie), he is a town lean for now. | ||

Your second line sounds off, can't quite pinpoint why. Maybe it's because I've been solidly town-reading you for most of the game so you being annoyed that I concluded that you were less townie than being the top townie makes zero sense.

His reaction to the lynch especially domain who wash there does not generally come from town, just as I caught df do his reaction to the lynch when he as scum (damn me for backing off). He had no reason to complain about the lynch since afk made everything not murky and if he was actually reading the game hebwoukd of known why we llynchd mal. His reasoning for voting mewas even worse essslecially if he is legit going to be afk. I basically puts me at the point scum could hammer me over mal if any is on mal. It justbisnt a thought process that I think would come from town Eden who would look at the lynch and pick who he thinks is scum and explain it and not fuck off with some convoluted bs. Examples about smart things? Or example of him tunneling me lots? Bolded part is the best part. As for your 'reasoning for voting' paragraph, I think that's really bad if Malongo/ you is TvT because he essentially says that he was willing to risk lynching someone ten times more active than Malongo just to prove a point even though he null-reads both of you. That doesn't look good since Malongo was town so Eden would have probably suspected him if you had been lynched and flipped town. But maybe I am just speculating too much there. I was going to say 'examples of points where you two have agreed without him acknowledging it' but on second thoughts, I could probably find out just by looking over your filter again so meh. | ||

Malongo was town, I'm town, and Damdred is at least more likely town than rayn - and certainly not scum for the reasons rayn proposed. He's not even really listening or changing his views. He pretty much ignored Damdred, ignored me several times (although at least he responded to me at times) and Malongo was more of an "lynch the AFKer". It fits the view that he's scum and pushing whatever may stick to mislynch, not so well with an "active and helpful town mindset". It doesn't matters how many townies someone pushes. Townies can be very wrong. Townies can scum-read three townies for days on end. It's more how they do it, really. The part where he totally ignores facts that don't fit his narrative is more concerning but I don't think that means he's really 'trying to ML you as scum' because he would have to know that people would pick up on him doing that and thus think he's less credible and persuasive. | ||

I basically debunked his Malongo case, and he actually pretty much gave up on 50% of his case, and stopped arguing about the rest, but it didn't affect his read in the slightest (even though both of his reasons were weak to begin with). Then I showed him how Damdred's question at the start could easily come from town, but he just repeated and repeated his argument that it makes Damdred sure scum without any real thought process. Now he puts Tumble as town and me as scum based on a totally incorrect narrative of how the EOD went down. And basically accuses me of being scum for doing pretty much the same thing as he himself did (accepting a slightly lower-priority lynch happening on D1 - Malongo for both of us). I don't know how accurate your portrayal of events is so I plan to review that once there's a bit of distance/ time to reflect on it a bit. You two argue a lot so it's hard to remember the details after a while. Since his Damdred case is flawed, I agree with you on that point. I do think that Tweedledumb is town though unless you thought that paranoia post was distancing or something. Dunno, looked really good on his part IMO. You'll probably say "oh but rayn keeps defending him, they're scum buddies" but that's a bit of a simplistic argument and nowhere near strong enough to make a pre-flip association. Not saying it's impossible but scummers don't tend to link themselves together THAT obviously. | ||

I'm starting to think that the townie-looking people who aren't really DOING anything are more likely to be mafia. disformation. Can anyone tell me what he is doing? Because I can't remember a single thing he's done outside of the early game. His VCA posts are a more boring version of my own take on the votes. It didn't feel like his analysis was very insightful. Koshi. Again, nice filter but hasn't done a lot. Not so sure on this one, could just be busy for 92 hours like he said. ritoky. Lots of debate-orientated points in his posts to DF which are great theoretically but don't mean anything for his alignment. Has the Eden post, however. Rels/ Onegu. I think Rels is more likely to be scum here, just because I don't spot any incongruencies with Onegu's current posting. Eden does not actually fit into this heuristic. He has those forceful posts on me going for him. Will have to see his response to the current events though. | ||

Because he was genuinely conflicted over what to do at EOD, therefore fumbling around, hopping on and off wagons without any regard for how that would look because townies in that situation act first and think later? | ||

That immediately tells me that there has to be at least one veteran who is good at making himself look like town. The majority of the people who fit this profile are scum-reading Tweedledumb (who does not fit this profile whatsoever). Therefore I feel that Tweedledumb is not going to result in a scum flip. I'm sick of telling myself "oh this game is easy, it's probably Rels/ Onegu/ TW/ whatever easy target is order of the day" when that's most likely not the case. | ||

So TW posts his reads at #626 He pops in later with #820, says he would like to lynch someone worse but isn't crazy about Malongo You call him out for #626 with #830 TW makes another post, #832, where he criticises the Malongo wagon because of rayn's apparent overconfidence in it Then he responds to #830 to say that policy lynches are never bad but he thinks the wagon is sketchy So while I see where you are coming from wrt lack of confusion, Damdred, the fact that he had literally just popped into the thread is a mitigating factor in your argument and he had already expressed doubt before he responded to you. If he had confused to post in a coherent, calm fashion then I'd be more inclined to think it's a tell. | ||

All of his posts since N1 are extremely boring and you could take them all out without missing anything since there is no notable contribution to the discussion. Even his VCA posts - something he prides himself on - are generic and didn't say anything interesting. By all means, flag up a post since N1 that is extremely townie or useful.

I retract my paranoia for now as an Eden/ disformation/ Rels (or Onegu, but Rels more likely) scum-team is looking increasingly likely. None of them are very influential and it feels like it's the start of some epic town steamroll. Or maybe I'm just thinking that so that I don't have to put in more effort.

More importantly, if this is the case, there is also a Roleblocker. This means rayn just ruined his crucial role forever from a little pressure. Is this townie play? 3) Mafia - quite plausible. As scum, he would know the setup. If there is no true JK, he can claim being roleblocked and push his agenda freely until LYLO. If there is a counter-claim, well, he's baited out the JK. But I'd expect him to claim later in the day in that case, now that plan is a bit too premature. All in all.. I'd put his chances of being scum higher than town, probably, considering the motivations and statistics in each case.. hm Yes but the fact is that rayn will be outed as scum if he lives for long enough or if nobody else claims TPR down the line.

I don't consider these reasons to be particularly strong since I've never seen anyone kill a player to frame someone on this site. And I don't see why you, specifically, would kill ritoky since you scum-read him, he town-read you and mafia aren't usually fans of killing their scum-reads and reducing support for them in the thread. It doesn't necessarily 'clear' you by NKA standards alone since there are multiple mafia members left but I do not see why you would have chosen to kill ritoky. | ||

Talks about how little resistance there is to mals lunch, does not get off it. Let's not kill this guy today. He is providing fresh points that do not suck and do not look like he's painting people as scum. This is good for town discussion. Even if he is mafia, his current actions are pro-town and he should be kept around for that reason. | ||

Can't remember the Skynx reference anymore. In general I haven't played almost at all for the last two years or so? I'd say I'm most proactive as town when I'm the most active poster / "thread leader" regardless of alignment. When the thread is already progressing fine, I become more passive (see the PYP game - I mostly much followed thread sentiment with town rayn/Marv/Palmar leading the discussion). If things are going badly, I often un-lazy myself and push more aggressively. As scum... I'm pretty survival-focused, I think. Often even willing to bus to gain cred. And avoid attention as much as can be done. Take that as you will. That makes more sense re: disformation. And that's a yes then ![]() | ||

Not gonna lie, I largely have the reads that I do because everyone else looks ten times townier and I don't see any flaws in the current town reads that I have. This is partly why I'm being incredibly lazy because I don't see how half the players in the thread can be mafia this game and the other half of the game aren't prolific posters. Well, I remember thinking that DF could maybe possibly be mafia but I forget why. So I might filter him later just to be super-duper-double sure ![]() But aside from that, I'm bored, don't feel like constantly arguing with people who I don't really scum-read 'just to be sure' and I probably won't do anything for a while unless my main suspects talk.

@AMG, your town read on Tweedledumb is based on a quote by Eden. Eden being consistently AFK means we kinds of have to lynch him (potential mod kill + lack of consensus on other scum reads + less than 12 hours left = bad move that could result in WCS two townies dead). I have yet to see a decent case for lynching anyone else today, honestly. | ||

Trying to filter dive on phone is so annoying. Read AMG. Basically a massive hipster. Black sheep. Has new points for chat. Expresses paranoia over wagons. However I don't see a real/sustained effort to move the wagon away from Eden (which I read as scummy). Not even voting. Tone slightly off on Damdred interactions like he's talking down to Damdred. Don't know why he dislikes Xatalos (is he sheepish Rayn's reasoning?). That's all I can remember. | ||

- His Calix/ DD theory didn't make a lick of sense. Just because I scum read him one time as mafia doesn't mean I'll do that every time we're TvS. - Didn't like his DFvDD talk since he did avoid the main question and flipped it back onto DD - Lots and lots of suspicion being thrown around. Extra points for being a sarcastic fucker while doing so - Doesn't dig into posts as much as he could do. - Constant references to AFK people for no real reason. Koshi said this first, pretty sure - That giant Koshi post had enough defensiveness to smother a city. More flipping it back onto Koshi. Usually this would be townie but it doesn't feel that way from a skim for some reason. - And what I am trying to get at there is that he's weirdly defiant and aggressive. Dunno if town or scum making some kind of play. Concluding null for now until I can pull up quotes and compare and tally up what DF has really done so far. Also I think that's enough productivity for me ![]() | ||

Possibly tone. But that is kind of lame. Especially when I have only played with him once before. He's been under focused too. Dork here asked why that was mafia earlier when I accused him and it's because Dork/ Onegu are easy targets for mafia if they are town yet this is not really happening? Not so applicable to Dork now as he has three votes. | ||

When confronted by Calix he is very apologetic. While he should try to figure out if the case is either correct or false.Xatalos, why feul the Eden case and incriminate Calix but then don't do anything yourself when Calix confronts you? This? I do not know how I missed it the first time -.- I agree that point 1 is weird because him being a top town of Eden's should not affect his liking the case. That stood out to me too but I am biased because it was a case against me. I do not think point 2 is meaningful. I also agree on point 3 that he is hiding behind me. He town read Tweedledumb because I really believed Tweedledumb is town. Which was weird and I did not like it. And obviously I agree on the last part as I tried talking on that already. So yes, I see your thought process and it is decent as a case. And I will try to filter Xatalos with this in mind. I still think he's town for meta. But maybe I am giving him too much slack by doing that. So I will try to ignore that. I am trying to fix my computer so if I succeed then I will read his filter then. | ||

Anyway, DF has upgraded dramatically in my eyes. That's because when I was catching up, I had almost the exact same thoughts as he did. On March 22 2017 02:04 darthfoley wrote: Btw I still think Eden is the lynch today. I voted for disformation for CW and discussion purposes but i'm more comfortable with Eden dying than Xatalos, especially because I don't think there's been a slam dunk case for Eden's townieness yet now the winds seem to be shifting off of him even though he's done absolutely nothing. Yea there may be question marks about Xata or whatever, but if Eden is scum and his scum mates get the obvious lynch off of him without him having posted, I will eat my own ass in frustration after this game. On March 22 2017 02:08 darthfoley wrote: This is why I am uncomfortable lynching Xata for the time being. He seems to be the only one seriously considering THIS specifical scenario in which rayn can't be CC'd. Is it likely? Not really, but the fact that he's arguing it is townie IMO. Like why throw this much shade towards a blue, if you're scum!Xata?????? What is the end goal Even when he's becoming the counter-wagon, he's still harping on about rayn. I feel like scum would have stopped trying to fight with the uncounterclaimed TPR. You might go "oh he's shitting up the thread" but I don't get that vibe since he kept on at it even after he started getting flak for it. And even does it after admitting that it's a dumb idea. Since all he has accomplished by doing so is looking horrible/ drawing a tonne of attention from the UNCOUNTERCLAIMED TPR WHO IS NEVER GETTING LYNCHED TODAY/ inflating the thread, it seems like a suicidal move for scum. Also I didn't have this thought while catching up but it's still a decent post IMO. + Show Spoiler + On March 22 2017 02:18 darthfoley wrote: No, I think it's quite clear ritoky's kill gives us very little information, especially at the time I made the post.

This whole day has kind of gone in waves against various people. First, disformation, then me kinda, then Xatalos. It almost feels to me like scum are trying to mud sling, see what sticks, somehow helping Eden survive one more day. Even one day extra of scum!Eden surviving could be important later in the game. The fact that he has checked out of this game also feels indicative of scum to me. I just don't know in what world we let Eden slide out of being lynched based off of one AMG "i'm paranoid post." Well now i'm paranoid that we're talking ourselves out of an obvious lynch Anyway this. ##vote Eden1892 | ||

- Lots and lots of wankery over how scummy I am. - Asking disformation about why he 'took his Doctor claim at face value' which didn't really go anyway - The 'disfo is totes town because mafia Calix spewed him that' post - A wishy-washy 'read' on Damdred Damdred has said a lot without a lot jumping out at me one way or another. I don't recall having this much difficulty discerning any feeling about his alignment when he's one of the more active posters in the thread before. Not really sure what to make of it yet, and to be fair to him, my relative disconnectedness from this game compared to past ones on here is probably to blame. As for Damdred, I didn't say that I don't think he's mafia, just that he didn't make an impression one way or another. I'm still not really prepared to say that he isn't, either. Just seems like he's said a lot of words and made a lot of posts, but very little has made a strong impression either way. I'll go and reread his filter and try to develop a more crystallized opinion of him for you though, since that's your wagon for today and I trust your motivations. - An absurd amount of time spent on explaining why rayn is town because of meta That's about it, really. | ||

If you can't shift focus to somewhere else. Also I fucking knew that something was up when Koshi didn't say this right away in the thread re: you. I remember bringing it up like three times before he said anything. I need to listen to my gut reads more often. But I won't sweat it. I think my reads this game were pretty sick anyway. Not often that people are scared of my reads these days ![]() | ||

I subbed in, called both scum townies, bumbled around for 2 cycles, got lampooned by the scum, then shot. This game was a rollercoaster for me, highs and lows Hey now, a variety in accuracy is the spice of mafia. Or something. If you think people hate playing with those who have bad reads, look no further than Koshi and I. ![]() | ||

Not sure why. I think it was POE from what I read in the scum chat. They had it narrowed down to DF/ AMG/ Calix and since I'm so amazing, they shot me because I was onto them, because I was a town leader AND because they thought I could be the Cop. I'm totally not smug ![]() | ||
