4. Mocsta (seems lost. Being lost here is good)
20. MoosyDoosy (I think he is town just based on thread sentiment against him)

I have hope for these players
15. Palmar (high hopes)
1. Holyflare (less high hopes)

Can flip either way

Odd Koshi knew there was gunna be 3 townies dead. Also feel weird he townreads me when I feel like I should probably be null at best for most people.

Eh I guess it would be a pretty weird scum slip to announce how much KP they have, on the other hand this is Koshi...

Just like Mocsta I think we blocked 1 kp tbh. Mafia kp is 4/2=2 and I think they have either a vigi or strongarm. The balance seems fine this game.

If they have a Vigi, then Mocsta would have been the 3rd mafia kp (I feel this is unlikely though). If they have a Strongman, and Town vigi was the 3rd kill, there is still not a KP "blocked" anywhere. So why do you assume one was blocked somewhere? (Man, sure would be nice to know how many mafia are in the game, HUH?)


If they strongman shot a VT then it wouldn't actually be KP right? I think that's how it usually works. so there may have been blocked kp from an inaccurate shot

The Strongman does not create an additional attacker. When used AS an attacker, his attack cannot be prevented.

No you didn't, especially when you vote off of those three people. I don't even know if you scumread any of them or not and if you do why is your vote on Tictock instead if you want them discussed?

Because I actually know how to accomplish more than one thing at the same time?

wrong. you also voted for me. you also tunneled me all D1 when i was doing nothing but trying to lynch mafia1 and mafia2. It was your fault you were mislynched because you were so bad and you would have never lynched any mafia in that game regardless of where your votes were.

NO, I did NOT vote for you. I voted for only TWO players, CopCake and GB, and they were both scum. You misremember, or you are lying, but those WERE the only two names I ever put into the voting thread. You lead a mislynch on someone who pegged 2/3 of the team on Day 1 in their only two votes (one of whom I posted very fleshed out and detailed arguments against), and try to claim that it was their fault for being "so bad." lol Yeah, I think I woulda lynched mafia just FINE in that game, if you had just gotten out of my (and your own) way. Too bad you didn't convince everyone to just sheep my votes after you mislynched me. Maybe then you would've won.

I can tell you about this mafia god town play. Gets poceted super hard by 2/3 mafia D1. Tunnels one of the only two people who try to lynch mafia in the game. Gets lynched D1.

Hahahaha. As I mentioned before, I have only been lynched D1 ONE time, in all my years of playing these games. ONE.

In that ONE game, I posted exactly TWO names in the voting thread. They were BOTH SCUM. I was mislynched Day 1 (YOUR fault), and you did NOT manage to win without me.


I appreciate the caps lock frequency. It really screams "I'm secure about my ability as a player."

I LOVE CAPS LOCK, darthfoley. In any mood, on any topic.

Wrong. How could anyone read it and then say this? That is not all it says, about any of the 3 of them. Not to mention the fact that I ask straightforward and direct questions that should be VERY simple for other players to answer.

Explained already. There should be NO reason I can't do both at the same time. I can accomplish both at the same time. I've done it dozens of times before.

I think you are directly contradicting what you said on D1 here, because -- as you are a logical player -- logically you should want to pressure lurkers to talk or kill them (as per your stance on D1). Which to me looks really scummy since you did this shit last game hard core.

Of course I did this shit last game. I had no reason to deviate from proper town play at that point in the game. So I simply played how a town player ought to, which means it looks exactly how I'm playing this game.

There was NO reason for me to think he wouldn't be lynched at EoD. I put the option there, if it wasn't used, that's not my fault.

That was NO mistake, and I did not "correct" anything. I GUARANTEE you, if I had needed to leave an hour before the deadline in D1 of this game, I WOULD have left my vote on sicklucker, just as I left my vote on Kelsier in that game.

The point is. If you think the lurkers are mafia, why aren't you pressuring them instead of voting for Tictock?

Doing BOTH? It wouldn't really even take that much cooperation from the other players. Just a LITTLE.

Funny thing is you literally voted for me after i made a case on mafia.

Funny thing is I literally never voted for you at ALL. You have to be mafia here, right? Arguing just for the sake of taking up space in the thread with an argument where you are wrong, and HAVE to know you are wrong? You have to be mafia, right? Because nobody is THIS brain-dead. Go look at the voting thread. Find where I voted for you. NEVER happened. I voted EXCLUSIVELY against two scum players. Look at the final vote count from that day, and look for a vote against you from me that got scratched out before I moved it somewhere else. Uh-uh. I never voted for you. I only voted for scum. But you somehow managed to get me lynched on Day 1, even though it had never happened before, and has never happened since. And then...you failed to win without me. As it has been more than 4 entire years since any town team I was on has made the mistake of killing me themselves and then survived it.

Absurd. Read my filter. Filled to overflowing with me bringing up topics for discussion that had gone unnoticed by others, and lines of questioning about why players hold the opinions they claim to, not to mention GETTING them to choose which opinions they claim in the FIRST place.

If YOU are Town, then what excuse could you possibly have for not engaging in the discussions I am trying to get settled? Seriously, tell me. Why would you staunchly refuse to participate in my efforts to advance the game, and discover the identities of the players who are mafia? Why are you standing in the way of that goal?

Not really what a cop is for. We'd find out whether or not there was a "super good reason to lynch with fire" if he was nailed to the wall and forced to participate, as he would be in games at other sites. Instead we have 7 players who aren't even voting, and of the players who are posting things, some still do not respond to direct questions. Moosy is a great example of this. Makes a bunch of disjointed "If X, then Y" posts (each one different than the last) that all appear to have no basis. And if you ask him for the basis...no answer. Yet some people somehow find the nerve to count him as someone "trying to solve the game." I can't even.

Yes, a REALLY good scum chance there, if Palmar is mistaken or misinforming. If the truth is that Coagulation has often been a worthwhile town asset, then I think the points I made give us extremely good reason to lynch him.

What I think of Fecalfeast is that he is the living embodiment of TL Mafia, in a nutshell.

Ostensibly he is a terrific place for votes (if people were voting) to get him to participate more so you can get a read on him. And if he won't participate more, you kill him. Unfortunately, there are too many other do-nothings to actually single him out for it, and based on my experience playing with him in other games (and reading other games he's participated in) his do-nothingness in this game is not really alignment-indicative. Hence the questions in my long post about the history of Alakaslam and "take my ball and go home" behaviors, and about Coagulation and "read 85 pages but have nothing to say about them, before risking my own death" behaviors. I think the answers to those questions can yield more context than meta analysis of FecalFeast is likely to yield. You apparently aren't someone who has the answers to those questions, but I thank you for at least trying to address them.

It has relevance to this game in that rayn displayed a willingness to continue an argument in which he knows he is in the wrong. My fake-out non-vote of him was a big topic of discussion in that game, I *know* he remembers it. I *know* that HE knows that I did not vote for him in that game, and that the only two players I voted for in that game were BOTH scum. Yet he continued to extend the argument about it, time and time again. For what? To make the game thread longer and harder to read? To make his filter longer and harder to read? To try and take my focus off of the game at hand? What other reason would he have for willfully extending an argument where he knows what I've said is fact?

What would lead you to this assumption?

Its not really a complicated thought process. Scum notices them getting suspected -> scum panics -> scum kills to get people off their trail. Its pretty much the simplest conclusion possible and probably the dumbest one but I'm a really stupid person so I'll go with this first

And if your inclination is to "assume that both were targeted because their reads were on track" then wouldn't you have to expect the mafia to have thought of this, when selecting their targets? In chess terms, this would represent thinking just ONE move ahead, yet you've not even done that?

Holyflare's top scum read had been mocsta, and Vivax's targets were Kelsier and Exo (whom multiple players had said were likely of the same alignment, regardless of which alignment that turned out to be). If the mafia wants people to think that HF and Vivax were targeted because their reads were on track, then it could be in an effort to achieve a mislynch on any of mocsta/Exo/Kelsier. Problem being that (if mocsta is truly a town Vigilante) they didn't foresee that he would cement his earlier Vigilante claim, and shoot Exo. Making an Exo mislynch impossible, a mocsta mislynch unlikely, and (if people still think Exo and Kelsier were likely the same alignment) a mislynch on Kelsier unlikely as well.

If you want to operate under the assumption that HF and Vivax were killed because their reads were on track, are you suggesting that mocsta should be the lynch? Are you suggesting that Kelsier should be the lynch? Are you suggesting anyone should be the lynch?

Just checking flips before I finish reading (note I still have not read pgs 40-70 or w/e)

Guess I can let that HF stuff go.

Exo seems like the weirdest kill to me, unless he was vigged?

Assuming for a moment that that was all mafia KP then I think 5 mafia is a safe bet (6 just seems like too much for 20 players).

Noting for myself to look into who Vivax was scum reading.

This feels astoundingly contrived. Why would someone post about the flips while admitting they aren't caught up enough on the thread to know anything about what they mean?

Kus I knew what time it was, and it saved me from fruitlessly responding to several of HF’s posts.

There wouldn't be any risk of fruitlessly responding to a dead HF, if you just didn't post until you'd read. And being saved from fruitlessly responding to a dead HF didn't save you from fruitlessly making posts about the flips while having no context.

eg "Exo seems like the weirdest kill to me, unless he was vigged?" If you just read before you posted, you would have seen that mocsta had said he was vig-killing Exo.

So, why would a TOWN player feel any need to post reactions to the flips, if he hadn't read the rest of the thread yet, and had no context to work with? I see absolutely no reason for a town player to do this. However, it is comparatively easier for me to pick out the scum motivation for trying to sound like you've not read the thread when you actually have.

[red]Not really true. Mafia want to post anything they can under the guise of scum hunting. Posting that I'm not a role isn't helping mafia in ANY way, it doesn't further any kind of scum read since I'm vt or mafia and it's just a completely empty read with nothing said. Good scum read.


In which you sound like you disagree with noobking (red) and then agree with him (green). Then you say "good scum read", when I don't really see him scumreading anyone, or is that referring to someone else?

what am I missing?


Ticktock says makes exo mafia for irrelevant post. I agreed with ticktock.

Noobking says it doesn't make him mafia, in fact it makes him more likely TOWN because "it doesn't help mafia to post like that".

I disagree with his premise that it makes exo town. I still agree with ticktock that it makes exo more likely mafia. It's an irrelevant post that has no real reason to post it for. It looks like he's scum hunting by posting a read but it's not actually a read.

[red]Then noobking argues with me that it doesn't try and look like scum hunting instead of anything to do with exo's motivation for posting in the first place. Drawn down to semantics.
Perhaps not semantics.. rather, TMI

Rather...perhaps I was just RIGHT? And Holyflare was WRONG. And Tictock was either wrong or scum. Yeah...that makes for an extremely simple explanation of things, in place of "TMI."

But hey, if you want to claim "TMI" for my townread and defense of Exo, then you don't need to stop there. Keep digging in my filter, and I promise you'll find moooorrrre of it, because Exo was one of my Top 2 townreads in the whole friggin' game.

If the original town indicator wasn't enough for others, I have no idea why they still wouldn't decide he was Town after the most convincing continuous string of dumbtown posts I may ever have seen. Page after page, he had me chuckling through a facepalm, and eventually rsoul got so fed up with him that she (while saying she didn't think he was scum) made a post that essentially read like "I don't want to tell you that you're an idiot who can't read....BUT...."

I felt a little bit bad for her, but mostly I felt bad for Vivax, if Vivax was scum, and Exo was the guy he was going to try and push, that day. Because Exo's posting I felt made him a million percent lynchproof. It would have been doubly bad for scum Vivax because multiple players were saying that Exo and Kelsier (the other guy Vivax was pushing) appeared to be the same alignment. Such that Exo accidentally tripping and falling into a vat of neon green paint was going to render Vivax's other target lynchproof as well. Alas, Vivax was Town, so all this potential hilarity was for naught.

Anyway, you acted bummed that your top townread (Vivax) was killed last night. I'm pretty much in that same boat...thanks to YOU. So if you're a Town vigilante, then you're one in the hole, with that shot. Try not to get yourself two in the hole by contributing to my mislynch today. How can I help you keep from doing that?

Could you try and spew this sort of self-righteous word vomit outside the thread please?

Literally 3 paragraphs of “told ya so” that added nothing to the game.

Wrong. It's important to the game because it explains me continually treating Exo as Town (both throughout Day 1 and Night 1) without it meaning I have "TMI." The rationale behind me thinking that early post was town-indicative is relevant. How his exchange with rsoul made me upgrade him to even townier status is also relevant. It explains why during Night 1, I would encourage him to battle through his disappointment over the D1 mislynch, understand that we're expected to mislynch on D1, and keep working at the game. And why I chose him specifically to ask what he thought a town Vigilante should do, if there was one. I trusted HIM to provide an untainted, Town-motivated answer. As it turns out, I didn't like his suggestion of shooting disformation (because of the possibility of an actual mafia Veteran) so I explained that, in case there was a town Vigilante listening, who was waffling on what to do. But I at least trusted him to not try and lead the Vigilante astray in his answer. I certainly did not foresee that the player I was trusting to give untainted advice to the Vigilante might then be shot BY that Vigilante, as may have happened. (It's been mentioned already that a 4-man mafia team that contains a Vigilante could be fine for game balance, but I still have trouble explaining Exo as a kill target for that mafia Vigilante, which is why I am not worrying about mocsta yet for Day 2. If he's scum, he'll need to be caught later, imo)

Moosy - my impression of his scum play was he fell off hard later in the game while still posting periodically. i'm not getting that impression here, but need to double-check to make sure his posts are leading somewhere

Think you're gonna wind up disappointed.

Tbh it is rather odd Mafia did not shoot into either of Mocsta or Dis.

Now why is that something you would want "to be honest" about?

Mocsta was fairly close to being lynched on D1, so HF and I both felt comfortable saying he would not be killed. He was too tantalizing as a mislynch target. Meanwhile:

Idk why but I feel like Mafia are quite likely to have a strongarm this game, and Dis prob should have died. Though it's not impossible they left him alive for WIFOM.

Kind of ridiculous. Why should they have wasted a Strongarm to kill an exposed Veteran?

Here are the 9 potential Town roles:

Veteran, Roleblocker, Doctor, Jailkeeper, Role Cop, Vanilla Cop, Tracker, Watcher, Vigilante

Every single one of them can help the Town catch scum, help the Town kill scum, or help the Town prevent kills by the scum....EXCEPT an exposed Veteran.

If we assume disformation is a legitimate Town Veteran, then: barring a scenario where he becomes the "Town Jesus" that was described earlier, there is NO rush to eliminate him. He's been completely neutralized by virtue of claiming his actual role, instead of just saying he was blue.


Cool, thanks for helping me understand why mafia would leave a claimed Veteran alive.


Touching back on this as I read it.

I’m not sure if it applies super well to Noobking due to his play style, but this type of mafia focused thinking raises red flags for me always.

It’s the type of thought process that shows noob is thinking from a mafia POV.

Every town player should be stepping back to think about things from a mafia POV from time to time. That's how counterintelligence works.

##2279 is rubbish

The only person who said same allignment between kelsier and exo is me

Literally one or two others said tvt

lulz?

*You* thought they were likely both the same alignment (and said so). *I* thought they were likely both the same alignment (and said so). Vivax thought they were likely both the same alignment (and said so). And that's just off the top of my head. Could have been more people who said things that were similar. But *nobody* was looking at it from the outside and saying they thought it was TvS, that I recall.

I dont like saying this

But conv rage quit feels controlled i.e. fake

More fake or less fake than Slam's, in your opinion?
More fake or less fake than rayn's, in your opinion?

Who cares

Mafia might quit irl to team mates
But i cant see mafia ever rage quitting
Instead its a concede or stop posting

Rage quit is how ya stop posting. You haven't seen mafia rage quit before??? I've seen mafia employ this tactic more than once in the same GAME, before. Of course, it's a fake rage quit, so they come back. Know anyone who said they were bailing on this game or "weren't going to play Day 2" but then came back?
