Reread Pandain's filter, definitely suspicious to me. I know, groundbreaking stuff here.
I'm going to try and focus on Pandain and Eywa-, I think it would be much easier to read Shapelog and KelsierSC once they come back and post a little more (which hopefully they will?), but those four are the four I am most suspicious of.
Can talk for a little, then going to a game night. Sorry you can't sleep Eversince

People normally call me Truffle if anything, Turtle works though. Sure, I can read Eywa-'s filter, be back in a few minutes.
I'm suspicious of Shapelog but not super sold yet, I'm more convinced of Pandain currently by a decent margin. Mostly for the reasons Holyflare gave, though his early Day 1 I wasn't a huge fan of. He's been playing better lately but I don't think that outweighs the suspicion.

I don't like how he backs down from his townread of Shapelog for seemingly no reason, his townread first sounds much stronger than his later explanation, coincidentally while Shapelog comes under suspicion.
That Eywa- waits for Holyflare to vote for raynpelikoneet before voting (I think anyway? on phone, double check this) or at least really starting his push on raynpelikoneet makes me feel like he's hiding behind Holyflare, like he looks great if raynpelikoneet flips mafia, and Holyflare gets the blame if he flips town.
Definitely worth looking at D2 imo.

Sorry I actually have to leave now, I know, lame discussion Sorry. I'd love to hear your thoughts and I'll read them when I get back though!

Him being town is pretty important if I'm going to go along with a shapelog vote tomorrow.
I can't see any way that trfel isn't town. He had the choice of 3 wagons, if trfel is mafia then at least one of those 3 is town and he can safely vote for them. He hadn't town read either KSC or shapelog at any point during day 1 so wouldn't have been contradicting himself. Both ksc and shapelog were being scumread by alot of players so no-one would raise any eyebrows at trfel voting for either of them.
I know you said its a just a gut feeling right now but can you see that the logic of the situation pretty much means he has to be town?
Nothing logical works in mafia, ever. That's a lesson you'll have to learn. I agree it's quite unlikely but I can't shake the gut feeling. I'm not sure that this is true, more like you can't trust logic over everything else. I'll keep an open mind but continue to presume that trfel is town unless I see something extremely convincing. To be honest Holyflare is right, there is a small chance I could do what I did as mafia and it's not worth ignoring. Yes it would be a suboptimal play, but sometimes mafia messes up. You can judge the likelihood and look at my play as a whole, but I would never recommend treating someone as 100% confirmed town for that alone.
That said if you lynch me first while Shapelog/KelsierSC/Pandain/Eywa- are all alive, I think I'd (rightfully) be a bit annoyed

I suppose it's also possible that KelsierSC and Shapelog were both mafia and failed to submit a night kill... but probably not that. Good job

It really does feel like the mafia team is all the afk's, though I've felt that way before and it's never been true before; though I think it's true this time. I still think it's almost certain at least one of Shapelog/Koshi is mafia, and just the way the game is going on doesn't necessarily make me feel like there's an active mafia presence.. You?

I haven't looked more closely at Eywa- today, I'll try and do that next. Pandain I still think looks bad for EoD, he's really the only potential active mafia I see. I don't think he is 100% mafia, and if anything I'd rather lynch someone else because at least he's still active, but I'm most always going to be suspicious of him.
Shapelog is my current choice of lynch, I just think he's been suspicious and afk and he needs to go. Koshi and Pandain get a little more time if anything to make the game more interesting.
|
If Shapelog is town we lynch Koshi, if Shapelog is mafia maybe we can get a better read on Koshi and clear him.
Right now I'm most inclined to think Eywa- is town, moreso than Pandain. To choose between them. But I should look at both again.

My reasoning for being suspicious of Pandain is the same as Holyflare's, he's described it a few times. It's just really suspicious that he'd be wanting to kill anyone but Alakaslam, regardless of the rest of his play.
|
This and this are the best explanations for why Pandain is likely mafia IMO. Just how his play seemed heavily motivated by protecting Alakaslam, who was mafia.
I also really didn't like how Pandain voted for Grackaroni after he claimed his role. That's just not a good play for town, there is no reason to push a claimed player, and I highly doubt Pandain wouldn't know this. I once pushed someone who claimed when I was mafia and I paid the price for it.
Something else I'm wondering about Pandain, what made him gain more confidence in his scumread of KelsierSC Day 1? + Show Spoiler [Analysis] +On June 24 2019 23:44 Pandain wrote: I think Rayn is mafia with kelsier On June 25 2019 20:54 Pandain wrote: Unfortunately I don't have too many useful opinions.
Rayn's reasoning is convoluted enough that's it's hard to understand (and thus make judgments on) his arguments.
I think Slam would actually be a fine lynch, just because I don't have a lot of convidence in anyone and better to lynch someone completely noncontributive.
I agree Grack's roleclaim makes no sense, and I doubt he's doctor, but I'm unsure whether that makes him VT or mafia.
I'm still going to keep my vote on Kelsier because I don't like his responses.
I have strong town reads on you (eversince) and jock.

At least we know slam will spam up the thread later when he's free. Kelsier will just always be the same and be lynch bait every lynch in future even if town. On June 26 2019 04:43 Pandain wrote: Anyway I don't even know if I will defend myself much anyway.
If I was you guys I would probably vote me anyway. Great news is that we lynch scum day 1 so mislynching me isn't a big deal.
I'll just say that yeah I thought Slam was a decent lynch if we had no idea what to do, but I grew increasingly certain KSC was scum. And it still seemed unlikely to me especially later that with the votes this close a mafia would be lynched. And I think this is true, if even 2 mafia were active then it would have been easy to force another lynch.
But yeah anyway sometimes in mafia you're wrong and you end up hard-defending the mafia with three minutes to go. What you gonna do To me, Pandain's increased suspicion of KelsierSC seems to come out of nowhere, it feels fabricated. His initial vote honestly feels like a pressure vote, then he seems to treat him not too differently from a random lynch. I just don't understand what would make him get increasingly more confident that KelsierSC was mafia over time, and more importantly I don't see that reflected in his posts, until after Alakaslam became the leading wagon.

Extremely extremely town read on Grack that will never change unless/until more people claim. So that leaves Shape/Kelsier/Eywa/Jock for last possible scum. Don't think the last two are scum, but it's possible. First two options are afkers so it's hard so it's basically a coin flip maybe between the two. Honestly though I haven't done a heavy enough analysis to choose which one I will definitely pick, so I will analyze all the four tomorrow hopefully. What is this read progression? He went from Shapelog and KelsierSC as mafia to null on KelsierSC (!) and downgrading (!!!) Shapelog to a slight scum read, while previously thinking Shapelog was mafia. Honestly I don't know what to to think of this, it feels mafia-motivated, like he started to doubt and then followed the thread sentiment. But sometimes I feel like town is more likely to mess up like this rather than mafia, as mafia is more careful... Pandain, I'd definitely like to know what was going on with this post, if possible.
Looking back on Pandain's filter, he really hasn't done that much work... He's been very active, probably the most active player in the game (particularly Night 1), but there hasn't been much real thought there. Mostly he's just been defending himself and explaining things again, often things that other players have been saying too. Admittedly there isn't much new information to analyze or much original thought to be had, but that doesn't entirely excuse him.
All that to say I'm pretty suspicious of Pandain, which is nothing new, but if you wanted words, here are words.

Making mafia posts from Kelsier into town posts That would be because Rayn is scum and Kelsier is probably town right? Or hard defending his buddy. Good point, but we agree that Rayn is a suitable lynch for today? Quite likely a good lynch, yeah. I want to know your thoughts on the game though because so far all I know is a couple of lines with no substance. Why did you town read shapelog? Why do you mafia read rayn? For Rayn, I feel like a lot of his early posts are somewhat non-committal. He wonders why I have random town reads, gives a couple random town reads, over justifies his town read on Eversince, then agrees on my scum reads conditionally (before I even responded to his previous concerns about my town reads). I mean, I don't have any one thing about his play I don't like, but it feels like a very cautious start from him. I also don't like the pun on the town claim. On June 26 2019 00:51 Eywa- wrote: The hard defense of Kelsier is also really weird. That seems like quite a contradiction. He's saying that raynpelikoneet had a cautious start with a bunch of non-committal posts. I don't see this at all from raynpelikoneet's play: raynpelikoneet had some hard townreads early on, willing to defend them, which Eywa- even mentions. That's not non-committal, that's highly committed...
Really that's the only notable thing I see from Eywa-. Also, I noticed that Eywa- was not around for the lynch, and wasn't around for the Alakaslam wagon at all. This means he's effectively in the same group as Shapelog and KelsierSC as an inactive mafia who couldn't do anything to divert the lynch from Alakaslam.
And I mentioned before how it felt like he (she?) was hiding behind Holyflare for the raynpelikoneet push.
Honestly could see Pandain/Eywa- being the remaining two mafia. It would be nice to get more from Koshi and Shapelog, I would really appreciate more information to try and better read those slots.

Took another look at Shapelog and KelsierSC, honestly I don't have a terribly strong read on either of them. In particular, KelsierSC I didn't find anything I really disliked.
I'm still a bit hesitant about jockmcplop too. I would read him as town, but I was very confident he was town last game for his open, honest play, but he was mafia then and completely burned me. So I don't want to townread him here wrongly...

I don't think its a slam dunk but its definitely an interesting case. I can see a situation where someone doesn't apply a way of thinking that they are capable of, without having mafia motivations.
That said, I don't really like shapelog's posting in general. Sort of pressured ES a little bit then dropped it, made that post about trfel and then went back on it later while still leaving room to go back to the suspicion if needed.

Honestly I'm kinda null on jockmcplop, in my opinion he has a killer scum game and I haven't seen him do anything super townie here. I'm probably just being paranoid... but I'm a bit suspicious.
Voting for Pandain, I'm currently more convinced about him than Shapelog. Miiiiight change it later, I think this game would be more fun with Pandain in and Shapelog dead, but for now that's my vote.

I would like to think more about Eywa-, they could maybe be worth considering for today, and I really am not opposed to lynching Shapelog just for maximum fun.
Can I ask how you feel Eywa- is pushing a mafia agenda? To me it feels like he's only pushing raynpelikoneet, and otherwise not doing a ton. Just trying to understand what you mean by that exactly.

My take is that Eywa- wouldn't have a plan and just push you without thinking ahead. Heck, I probably wouldn't have thought that far ahead if I were mafia. Pandain can, Eywa- feels like the stubborn player who would do their own thing as mafia.
I get what you're saying, and it's not super likely, but I feel like it's not outside the realm of possibility.
