Also don't take mocsta's enthusiasm as towny. Looks pretty forced and says nothing.

Eh, you've probably got a point. His scum game is good enough to allow for read changes. I shouldn't badger him about scum-siding before we have a Damerion flip, but it's hard.

I read it as he caught himself saying 'like' too much generally, not in an alignment-indicative sense.

yeah obviously, but it still doesn't make sense to me.


I don't know. It's like anything else, isn't it? If you're trying not to, say, get as worked up at people as you usually do it's generally because you don't like the behavior in yourself.

Saying 'like' in a grammatically incorrect way (like geript does all the time) reads valley girl. Which in the states translates to stupid rich white girl on the West coast too consumed with her looks, money and material stuff.

I have no trouble seeing why he wouldn't want to talk that way if he caught himself doing it. But maybe it's easier to understand from an American perspective because I know where the speech pattern comes from?

No I don't understand. For me valley girl meant naïve girl in the wild, but even with that clarification I don't get it. I write what I want to write, and I don't stop thinking about it 'cause I'm already doing the best I can. + Damerion's accusation was about him saying "like" more as an alignment than the other, so it's not even the same thing.


I mean, this is all water under the bridge at this point, but given the tone of the rest of his post that's part of why I found it hard to buy holyflare's Damdred panicked story.

It was an entirely stupid response to being 'caught'. In the context of the post, that was mostly a brush-off as it read to me, it just sounds like he said whatever without considering how it would look to say it. Which usually means it's just true -shrugs- A truly panicked post I would expect to be aggressively defensive.

I don't agree. I saw what HF saw, IE it looked like Damdred came up with a random explanation to explain Damerion's point and tried to brush it off.

Cause honestly it just comes down to I read Damdred correctly and y'all didn't. And he's dead. So...yeah.

God don't remind me lol >< I might have overposted before to the point of detrimental, but that's the most overt case for sure.

I remember going to look at the vote thread, pouting that even if I changed to BTDT against Damdred's wishes (and yes I did hesitate cause I'm an emotional goober before deciding fuck Damdred's town read) he'd still be lynched cause evil Rels had switched. Wrote out my pout. And you'd fucking swtiched to BTDT ;o;

In retrospect, it may have been for the best; I think the Damdred issue would have dominated the thread until he flipped. But I miss him. And I'm a boob -_-

The facts don't make holyflare look town @.@


What did you just tell me about looking at facts? I would 110% be pushing this game in a different direction more gung ho if I was mafia.

Rsoultin case is pretty fuckn good. I wish I had read it before the deadline.


It's just a summarisation of what she's been repeating since day 1.....


Dude, chill. I'm stating reality. I've said, multiple times since night 1, that I'm tonereading you town despite your scumsiding play.

And, by the way, did you look at the spoilers? Yes, I repeated what I said based on feels from reading those filters, but I took quite a lot of time to confirm that those feels actually reflected reality. And presented the evidence for you. Meanwhile you say the evidence was stacked against Damdred and you rely on evidence.

Unless you have a reason other than "I don't think scum hard pushes a town lynch there" which they do, and you do as scum, so hello bullshit meter, there's your evidence. And I don't want to hear any more degrading my case. It's good. I could be wrong, but it's solid. It doesn't look like his town game because he wasn't as engaged when he was active in the thread, and there is no way his meta test on Damdred's play could have possibly given him such a strong read on Damdred so early. He's either an idiot with meta (possible, but unlikely given his former town play) or he has to know that was bullshit, i.e. scum.


Calm down dude, I'm saying that you summarised what you've said and it's not new so Mocsta suddenly having an epiphany just reconfirms what I'm saying about him not paying attention.

Nothing to do with your case at all.

Mcosta Rico obviously has a post a bunch of unnecessary fluff. I don't like this. It feels he is trying to inject and clog up the discussion early on, so that later near the vote we don't have a solid lead.

Beverly Hills Cop reference.

For example, even for the early stages of the game this post hit me as him prioritizing being fambyont then asking his question to Darthfoley. As town, this doesn't make much sense as it is counter productive to town''s goal.

However, I agree with others that Darthfoley entrance and comment about Mcosta Rico felt forced. The tone and way he wrote it felt like he was primarily trying to throw shade onto Mcosta Rico.

Both above feel like mafia in their agenda. But I doubt they are together since it wouldn't make sense for Darthfoley as his team mate to do that. For now both are in my suspect pile until the game develops more.

On the oppersite end, Mderg feels the most town. His posts are interacting with the discussion going on and feels like it's coming from a town perspective.

Rusissan Rsoultin itch post doesn't get her town in my eyes, as the way she worded it allows her to back track more easily and generally feels like she is not committing to a read. The one's I bolded are the ones Im talking about.

So many itches.

A holyflare who says hi and scrams when he's at the centre of attention. Though it is late and joke votes obvious, still an itch.

Rels hi itchy for similar reasons but less itchy when not center of attention.

Darthfoley passive aggression at someone eager to participate ??? (In retrospect this bugs me most at present)

Prplhz just needs to be swatted with a newspaper.

Mild itchiness with an eager Damdred not being around for game start, but then, it's Damdred; he could have fallen down a set of stairs @.@

I hate phone posting Lazy rsoul should just get on her pc. And yes, itchiness is like a mild form of scummy in case that's not clear. Maybe more accurate to put it as it rubs me wrong and makes me suspicious.


QQ phone posting is hard


Why doesn't it make sense that they could be scum together (mocsta and DF), they have no real interactions together (yet). Also the comments could be distancing obviously so it does make moderate sense.

But still a bit much to make a decision either way I suppose. But both are scummy

Lol, as and you shall be given.

I didn't consider the idea of distancing each other. But it still doesn't make sense in my head for Darthfoley to put himself into a spot that early on where now he and his teammate MCosta Rico are going to be the top scum on anybody list. Due to Mcosta Rico posting style, Darthfoley should have known that would of have already drawn a bunch of attention to his teammate. Therefore, if no actual progress is made by Mcosta Rico to get into a better spot, Darthfoley has to vote Mcosta Rico, or look very suspious for changing his read since he is clearly thinking Mcosta Rico is scummy for it.

If Mcosta Rico does improve, than attention will be shifted to Darthfoley, making it he'll for the team either way.

If that makes sense.


such perfect and sure reads 10 minutes into the game. And he sure love talking about DF.
Lol I think he's in love with DF. Basically every single post of his talks about DF. Such attraction.

What is your read on Mcosta Rico and DarthFoley?

Damdred just admitted that his meta is to mustang/bus his teammates as mafia. As someone who states he knows his meta, what is your opinion on his reads on them. And what are yours reads on them?

As for my read on Darthfoley, I think he is null one post does a case not make unless he claimed scum.

I do not like Mocsta posts, however I do not think his ramblings are alignment indicative. So pressure him fine but I do not see it, strange yes but nothing beyond that.

I was worried about him only seeming to have a read on damdred. But it seems strange for him if he is mafia to exclude the other two prime vote targets at the time from his pool. He also didn't seem worried to frabicate a read or what not on them. Bear in mind this is before the damdred votes piled so it would be a major gamble from him to make it impossible to chase Mcosta Rico and Darthfoley based off current suspecious of them.

I felt he was town before, but I think this seals it. Thoughts?


Might be partner indicative.

Nevermind. I think I'm just oversensitive.

Did you read my spoilers? It's in pretty colors to make it easy to compare. I legitimately would like to know why you don't find the case convincing, if it's more than what I mentioned just a moment ago.

@Rels...maybe. I really am not sure on things like that. The way I play scum, my issue tends to be ignoring my teammates because I don't know what to do with them. But I recognize others may play differently.

Actually...even though I felt he was organic before, it is odd that twatty apparently had mocsta and darth foley as scum, but not together, but instead interacts with pretty much everyone but them. Even Damdred. Who he votes as a 'placeholder' until his scumreads talk more?

It's different absolutely from his other games but it's just my points that I'm hesitant over. Knowing mafia so well it's counter intuitive to me to raise a meta point that's going to backfire and be wrong or get disproven.

Nevermind. I think I'm just oversensitive.

Did you read my spoilers? It's in pretty colors to make it easy to compare. I legitimately would like to know why you don't find the case convincing, if it's more than what I mentioned just a moment ago.

@Rels...maybe. I really am not sure on things like that. The way I play scum, my issue tends to be ignoring my teammates because I don't know what to do with them. But I recognize others may play differently.


It's different absolutely from his other games but it's just my points that I'm hesitant over. Knowing mafia so well it's counter intuitive to me to raise a meta point that's going to backfire and be wrong or get disproven.


The meta point wasn't wrong, technically. At least from the two games we have here on TL that they were both in, which is admittedly a very small pool. It was just entirely misused.

It's like...I got lynched Day One on some site rayn invited me to with cake where they both rolled mafia. This happened because rayn said that I'd recently called out a whole mafia team before a single flip (true, but that was Himalayas and easily the best town game I've ever played, nor was my Day One play amazing) and thus I must be scum for being underwhelming. He used something true entirely inappropriately to get his lynch.

At least some of the meta that Damerion used was true. For instance, his assertion that Damdred usually townhunts Day One (this is part of how I know Damdred to play, too). But it was unnuanced. He didn't wait long enough to test his newly-developed meta read against Damdred's play. He certainly didn't wait long enough to test Damdred's usage of 'like'. This is fine if his approach had been:

I'm seeing some things that don't look like Damdred's town game, and he hasn't said a word I expect him to say yet. Could be scum.

^ That makes sense to me with new meta you're testing that early in the game. The certainty behind the case doesn't. I'm saying that he used a scalpel he'd never tested like a bludgeon. And given his success in previous games, I'm not inclined to write it off as newbie eagerness. He's obviously not knew to mafia, just TL Mafia. Which makes sense; Damdred brought me here from another site where we played mafia together as well.

Also, frankly, there was nothing about Damdred's opening prior to Damerion's entrance that was any different from his normal town games. I certainly saw nothing odd there. I just don't think that matters in Damerion's case if his meta is fairly new; being wrong does not a mafioso make.

My interest is intent.

who is this mocsta character and why is he speaking so much?

dunno if DF makes his first post on mocsta, especially with that aggressive attitude, if they're partners. I know he was aggressive to me too later, saying something like "explain to me, and precisely please."
If DF isn't a very good scum the game could be solved maybe.

Lol this is what i mean with unplanned and pleasant outcome

My opening was unconventional by todays standards so looks like easy shade to throw

If anything. Whethee good or bad scum. He should ignore my entrance or force me to talk to establish better innocence.

But you don't give me the courtesy of
1) Fully reading something I've worked quite some time on, and
2) Shit on it.

Reminder to discuss this post game.

This is a fascinating conversation.

I cant believe i didnt notice this
I just thought he was an over enthusiastic tunneled townie
To be honesr. Reminded me of my newbie games

How you perceive good play is not how others do.

He probably raised the case to get discussion away from darthfoley and didnt expect it to stick which was in unplanned due to damdred reaction

yeah but actually he wasn't in the thread in the same time as both of them. But yeah about the placeholder vote, then never coming back to change it


True, the placeholder vote still is an oddity. Why if you have two scumreads?
