@currentlyhomeless: Have anything you might use to convince me that Holyflare would flip red? Seems like you're saying he's scum because he felt threatened by your randomly-generated vote against him. Is there more to it than that?
I'll probably read some more of this thread now.

I can hardly tell what he is referring to half the time since he seems to mix up who he's talking to when he responds to people. Independent of anything else, this for sure is true. I had already noticed that his posts are more difficult to follow than anyone else's, before reading this from you. And that's with me reading the thread chronologically; I'm sure it'll be even worse if anyone tries to look into his filter later in the game.
If he's Town, then the fact that his posts will later be almost impossible for other Town players to look at, read, and understand, would not be great for his win condition. But if he's Scum, the fact that his posts will later be indecipherable for Town players would not hurt his win condition at all.

Calix mafia? Y/N
Starting to read the thread and this is the first thing I see. GB asking Rayn for a read when he hasnt even been inthe thread yet. I don’t buy the idea he just decided to ask an opinion of Rayn in the hopes he’d come into the thread. I think he heard from Rayn in a QT and slipped with this post You can be town for this post. But I don't agree with it. I don’t know why else he would post asking for Rayn, without having any indication Rayn would even be here to respond. Presumably, rayn would *eventually* be here to respond. Your observation is noted. People understand what you've said, and have mostly chosen to dismiss it, so you'll need something else. You didn't vote against rayn for this anyway. And in fact, didn't vote for anyone. Hopefully, when you said you'll be gone for the rest of the day, you only meant the rest of what was "April 8th" for you in the US. And not the rest of Day 1.

Never played with GB before. In fact, I don't think I've played with quite a few people on this playerlist. Speaking of GB, have a question. If your read on me is "pure intuition" - which suggests you have no solid basis to scum-read me - then how can you ask Rayn and Eversince if they "see what you see"? That implies you have a more tangible reason to call me mafia. I can sort of see the thought process here but from this post i got the feeling Calix is doing the thing here where she makes GB answer wrong regardless of the answer. There is nothing wrong with GB asking me or Eversince about Calix, since Eversince was obviously around, and me for other reasons (which shouldn't be a concern to Calix here since she has never played with GB). Then she goes on and says the last sentence which is like... ughhh.. leading GB to possibly say something stupid. Like if GB says: 1) "no i didn't" --> you're mafia because you implied so 2) "yes i actually did" --> you're mafia because you didn't give the reason (why wouldn't you) I don't agree that both answers are wrong. Only the first answer is wrong. He gave the second answer, which I think is fine, and which didn't seem to set Calix off, either.

A questionable progression isn't a reason to suspect someone is mafia? Yes, I said that it 'might' make him mafia as I would like an explanation from him first but there's still plenty of content to comment from.
And if you thought it didn't say anything then again, why WOULDN'T you respond to it saying that at the time? Here's what you're claiming. Your mafia read a makes long accusatory post "which doesn't say anything" on someone you town-lean and you're claiming you just ignored it until I prodded you for a response?
Yeah, I don't believe you.
##vote raynpelikoneet The problem with the "questionable progression" Calix gives here might be suspicious because in the post where she accuses Vivax of being mafia she already gives the townie answer for Vivax (aka answer A). It is basically what i believed Vivax was doing, i thought Vivax made a stupid rection test to Damdred on GB already having a townread on GB. That in itself isn't even scummy, what i find stupid is that Calix gives a scumread on Vivax and then says like "but what was your reasoning, pick from these answeres where one is townie and one is scummy or make up your own answer". If you want someone to answer TRUTHFULLY you don't give answers (or you have some kind of trick in there ^^ , which there isn't here). Why would you say, as town, "hey dude, i think you are scummy, can you elaborate on this X thing and if you answer Y then you are town"? What's the point? Now i don't think this is even necessarily scummy but the follow up on it is. Problem being that answer A is NOT what Vivax has said he was doing. He's said that answer B is what happened, and that he did in fact change his mind, rather than townreading GB all along and using a reaction test on Damdred. And through Page 12, you don't seem to have ever acknowledged this fact, or said anything about how (or whether) it changes your impression of Vivax.
I agree with Calix that Vivax's "progression" does not read as it should, if he had a genuine change in his perspective. It reads just fine if he was townreading GB all along and fishing for Damdred's response, but Vivax has told us that isn't what happened.
Do you not agree that (because answer B *is* what happened) Vivax's posts on the subject seem strange?

Guess while I'm at it, I might as well triple-down and then quadruple-down on my "the way Calix is playing in this game makes sense" stuff.

You do come out of the gates with some posts that read kinda like "Woohoo! Time to play some Mafia! Let's DO this!" And then you say something like "I'm feeling really good tonight so I might spam a little bit" And then you say something like "Anyway, gotta go, bye"
Skynx might have already thought that was weird, even if you hadn't specifically said "I won't be posting until tomorrow" before coming back later that day and posting some more.
Calix asked him what your mafia motivation for lying would be, and he didn't seem to know, he just didn't see a good town motivation for lying. When Calix says she could see a Town Skynx just thinking "liars = scum" you responded with:

No I meant if it was a mafia driven lynch they would of just beat around the bush for 24 hrs then fucked off. They would of setup a diversion, and a backup, and pushed off onto one of those after Rayn failed. This whole concept is why Skynx isn't scum. Stop voting for him darnit. you give way too much credit for scum teamplay. Based on Eversince's super-low post count, I would assume the vast majority of her Mafia experience comes from elsewhere. And I think a lot of what she's said would make sense for non-TL games, where you DO see a lot more coordination, strategy, and a well-defined "scum agenda" than what is often seen in the games here, where you sometimes wouldn't be able to tell if all the scum players were actually even reading the scum QT during Day Phases, and most members of the team are just doing whatever comes into their heads, without any planning, or forethought, or understanding of how it will impact their teammates.
But anyway, even if Scum were to set up "a diversion" and "a backup" that doesn't mean that a scum Skynx's teammates would have to help him out with a push against a town rayn, before gauging the TOWN'S interest in pursuing the lynch. So even once I decide that her premise is logical for non-TL games, I still don't think her premise actually supports her conclusion. Skynx could easily be Town, but this is not good reasoning for deciding that he's Town.

He doesn't answer questions about whether there are reasons to think HF would flip scum, beyond the way in which HF fell into his "trap" so I don't really know what to do with him. To this point, he hasn't really exhibited the demeanor of someone who would suddenly become cooperative if vote-pressured. Since I think we should assume he's Kush until we have good reason to believe otherwise, some more comments on what it would mean if Kush were behaving this way would be helpful.

I don't think mafia would have exposed them self in such a noticeable way that early. Also Calix re-eval is something that I do need to think about. Because that was a little weird. But, people can change there minds. I personally think it was genuine. It just happened in such a fast time frame. But ack, I can't give someone a hard time for realizing their mistake and changing their perspective.
GB's alright in my book. He had something that gave me questions when I was skimming. I'll post those when I re-read. Not bad enough for me to move off my town impression of him.
HF is so scarcely relevant right now that it's kinda scary. My experience with him has been: 1) Very strong points against people as either alignment. 2) Crazy active, this friend's filter at 2 pages after a day and a half r.r..... 3) Very inquisitive. He notices things that other people miss. Like a lot. He usually attacks these things and hammers scum for it. The fact that he's not currently doing it actually makes me think he's town. Even mafia HF exploits people trash comments. HF isn't doing that. He doesn't have any presence at all. So I will give him a light townread for right now (I hope you are ok HF!)
Oats is questionable to me r.r Like he pokes holes in lots of things that are easy to poke holes in. Then doesn't elaborate on them at all. But he's 'lukewarm' in the sense that he hasn't really pushed these ideas towards anything. His largest attempt was on Calix and he still didn't even bother trying to start a wagon. Seems unusual from a mafia perspective to complain points idle in thread for no gain. He can be on my fence.
Skynx is alright for now.
CH has literally no post in the thread that I remember atm. Would lynch.
Vivax is different than I remember from the times we last played. I'll give him time though.
Tubesock seems alright.
Exo_ He did make couple of post that I thought might be constructive. So I'll give him points for that. I'll filter him later and see what those were though. I don't remember r.r
I didn't even realize nOObking was in the game before I filtered him. Would lynch.
Damdie seems ok to me.
I think that covers everything. I'm sorry if I missed something! I will go shower, and be back in about 15 minutes!
Very fluffy post. But maybe not the fluffiest thing she's done. I liked when she asked Tubesock what he thought about me, when I hadn't made a post yet. That question is bound to be productive.

I'll mention again that I don't think English looks to be her first language. As such, there could be a distinction between who she says seems "ok" (like Damdred) vs. who she says is "alright." When she says "alright" that appears to be a townread, because she lists Tubesock as an "alright" and then shortly later tells him that she "still thinks he is town." And lists Skynx as an "alright" and has gone on to say that she will fight against his lynch. It's a little strange to me, how big a deal she made about how she'll fight against Skynx's lynch, when there's never been more than a single vote against him.

Looked like Oats thought Eversince was doing something scummy in #376 (in reference to Skynx not getting any traction), Eversince then posts something about Tubesock, and then Oats asks for a response to his post in #386. Which Eversince did not respond to. That's the second time now that she's dodged questions while still obviously being in the thread. She had definitely answered that. Her explanation is even IN the post he quotes from her when he asks.
1) Several players were suspicious of rayn (you can agree with her about this, or not, but it doesn't matter. This is how the answer goes.) 2) Skynx casts the vote against rayn, and adds to the "case" against him. 3) No one takes this new opportunity to throw their votes onto rayn as well. 4) If Skynx were scum, his teammates would have supported his push against rayn. Nothing like that happened, ergo, Skynx is Town.
I don't agree with how her thought process went, but the answer was given.

Funny thing is it's always "because rayn did the same thing last game as mafia". Without any thinking at all. I did laugh when his first post is a case on you. I didn’t read past page three on his filter. I’ll accept the point that he will always think you’re scummy in any game (if that’s your point). But the only similarities were the first post is a case about you. The games are a bit different. And if he’s self aware at all, something he likely would try to replicate as mafia. I’m up for lynching someone else I guess. Not HF though. Why not HF? I know you said 'his lack of nitpicking' makes him more likely town but you still have him as 'solid null' so I don't really get why you don't want him lynched. I feel somewhat confident I can read him eventually. I think he tries harder as mafia, but also I think the damage a living fairly inactive mafiaHF is less than killing a townHF who just hasn’t had much time to play. He hasn’t done anything that I think makes him town, but so far he’s on the greener shade of null. However, well within his scum range. Lazy scum _____ is more dangerous than lazy town ______ is helpful. Doesn't matter whose name you put in the blank. Not exactly what I said, but ok? Well what did you mean to say, then? There is at least one word missing in your post, and maybe other errors. I tried to figure it out as best I could, but maybe I missed the mark. It is worse to kill a town HF than let a fairly inactive mafia HF live. Then I like what I said already. Because if HF is Town, then he's probably as inactive as he appears to be. If he's Scum, there is NO way for everyone to know if he is as inactive as he appears to be.
As Scum, I can largely afk the main thread, while actively crafting and guiding the scum agenda through Day Phases, and suggesting (or simply selecting) what I think would be optimal Night actions.
And even if the Scum player IS truly not applying much energy or effort to the game, an empty shell scum player who is really nothing more than just a warm body provides a lot more value to this team than an empty shell town player provides to his. The only thing a Scum player needs to do in order to significantly benefit his team is not die.
Low-activity scum player is more dangerous than a low-activity town player is helpful.
You saying that you are confident you can read him eventually is valid, though.

Fine. I cant double check rn but from my memory i disagree its an unnatural change in read. Lets see what Vivax has to say about it. His (single-page) filter would tell you what he has to say about it. And (if you're Town) you probably found his responses convincing, and that's why you don't remember there being anything unnatural about it. That's fine, but I think differently. So let's see what *other people* have to say about it, too.
Because Vivax seems to be sitting at around #2 or #3 or #4 in a lot of people's lynch lists, but there weren't any votes against him.
Think a couple of people have mentioned that they haven't really liked HIS level of effort in the game, and then he voted the AFK player, with the stated goal of "motivating" him. I don't remember having any luck trying to get (Town) Vivax to vote against AFK players, in the most recent games.
Side note: Are we sure that Eversince is not a "smurf" account that's just been used more than once? Are the smurfs always revealed at the end of the game or anything like that?

For one thing, if we leave ES alive, we don't let her choose who to give a gun to. We would take a vote or something, to tell HER who to give the gun to.
If she's Town and there's no Mafia roleblocker, then she should be verified pretty quickly (even if by death). If she's Town and there IS a Mafia roleblocker, then it would keep the roleblocker tied up indefinitely at least.
But if we assume there are more Vanillas than power roles, her claim makes her more likely to be scum than she was before she made it.
But all that depends upon Gunsmith being a Town-only role. If the rules allow for a Mafia Gunsmith (and I can't see any way to tell, which is why I posted the rules question), then letting her verify her role by passing a gun is pointless anyway.

No I meant if it was a mafia driven lynch they would of just beat around the bush for 24 hrs then fucked off. They would of setup a diversion, and a backup, and pushed off onto one of those after Rayn failed. This whole concept is why Skynx isn't scum. Stop voting for him darnit. you give way too much credit for scum teamplay. Based on Eversince's super-low post count, I would assume the vast majority of her Mafia experience comes from elsewhere. And I think a lot of what she's said would make sense for non-TL games, where you DO see a lot more coordination, strategy, and a well-defined "scum agenda" than what is often seen in the games here, where you sometimes wouldn't be able to tell if all the scum players were actually even reading the scum QT during Day Phases, and most members of the team are just doing whatever comes into their heads, without any planning, or forethought, or understanding of how it will impact their teammates. But anyway, even if Scum were to set up "a diversion" and "a backup" that doesn't mean that a scum Skynx's teammates would have to help him out with a push against a town rayn, before gauging the TOWN'S interest in pursuing the lynch. So even once I decide that her premise is logical for non-TL games, I still don't think her premise actually supports her conclusion. Skynx could easily be Town, but this is not good reasoning for deciding that he's Town. What's the point of this post? It explains to you that I think you should have been attacking her eventual conclusion (about the townread on Skynx, and how she reached it), and not her initial premise (about how a team of Mafia would or should operate).

I have plenty of other suspicions, but Skynx just sounds like the best lynch. You know it. Skynx is on the same level as the other afk people imo It's not. He drops two bad cases and decides to vote me instead of rayn because rayn had a lot to answer yet. What kind of thought process is that? You vote for the best lynch. Always. Nah. If you have two scumreads and one of them you feel is under adequate pressure already, you can just vote for the other one, and try to get pressure on both of your scumreads. I've done this many times, and in fact, I think I've even used almost the same wording that Skynx did.
This strikes me the same as when you said that Calix should have talked to you about your vote against her, because that's "how town mindset works." Well...no. Just no.
As Town, I've said exactly zero about someone's vote against me. And as Town, I've voted against a secondary scumread if my primary scumread was already getting satisfactory vote pressure.

Alright, so duplicate roles are possible. If a Gunsmith happens along who hadn't seen Eversince's claim yet (lets say Damdred, for example) then there would be very minimal value in performing the counterclaim.
On the upside, no such thing as a mafia Gunsmith. If Eversince is able to pass a gun to who we tell her to pass it to, she's verified Town. There also cannot be a mafia Jailer to stop her from passing a gun, so she'll only be stopped by a mafia roleblocker.
I randomly feel like there's a decent chance of there being a mafia roleblocker in the game, so even if her claim is real instead of fake, I don't necessarily expect a gun to get passed on Night 1. But even though she's a better lynch now than before the claim, I'm inclined to at least give her the opportunity.
There are still 2 votes on her, but unless someone disagrees with the above, I think those votes should move off, instead of being added to.

Good reason to fake claim a power role instead of just trying to pass for Vanilla.
2) Since this particular ruleset doesn't keep the roleblocker from choosing the same target on successive nights, Mafia Eversince has a never-ending excuse for failing to pass the gun and verifying her roleclaim.
3) Since this particular ruleset doesn't give notifications to people when they are roleblocked, the mafia roleblocker can continue to roleblock town players while Mafia Eversince pretends to be roleblocked, and no Town players can say "but I was roleblocked too..."
Not all rulesets will follow ANY of those three parameters, much less all three of them. But THIS game presents something of a perfect storm, for a fake Gunsmith claim.

She told Vivax she would be around for another 45 minutes to an hour. An hour later she finds herself in the vote lead, at the time she's supposed to be leaving. So she makes the claim. As the excuse for the early claim, she says her "time is up." But she then spends the entire next HOUR defending herself, when she sees that people are NOT reacting positively to the claim. After that hour, she OFFICIALLY declares that she is now going to bed. (Like, for realsies, this time, peoples.) But then spends ANOTHER half hour defending herself from new posts instead. Spending 90 minutes defending herself, when the entire excuse behind the early claim was that she was "out of time" and had to leave.
If she were actually Town, then this post:

I also can't say I care for the fact that she freely discussed reads on everyone from Vivax to DAMDRED (who had been long-term AFK), but ONE topic she refused to discuss (even when asked directly) was WHY she put her VOTE where it is. That's really bad.
But in the face of ALL that, I would give her the opportunity to try and pass the gun on Night 1. If she's Town, maybe we'll get lucky and the scum will not have a roleblocker to stop her with.

Do you have any evidence that people care more about being mislynched as a power role than they care about being lynched as scum? Because "saying it doesn't make it true." Every scum role is more important to its team than ANY power role is important to the town.

Yeah, awful re-entry from Damdred, but it's another one of those instances that borders on "too awful." Like, where's his awareness, if he's scum?
Oats townreading him for it bothers me more, especially when you add it to him making Calix his lynch target.
Also, I think a red flip from Oats would yield more information about other players than a red flip from...possibly any other player in the game.

It's amazing that people are not taking this into account. Mafia like shooting the active high-posting people and leaving the shitty AFK scrubs. Well there's some bad news then.
1) Vivax's filter isn't particularly short anymore either. 2) What you've posted might make a good argument for a No Lynch, but we can't do that in this ruleset. It appears we'd forfeit very little by lynching someone like currentlyhomeless, but I can't put his percentage of flipping red very far above the baseline (if any)

So, Skynx has a very simple path to self-preservation, which is just to vote against Vivax. He votes against me instead, which (regardless of Vivax's own alignment) just SCREAMS "I know someone has my back."
