Early on, Holyflare was suspicious of Pandain:Later, he posted and said Pandain was town, for no reason:

Let's primarily work from this post, as this is the first real time Holyflare has provided reads in this game and it is also when he says he is starting to take the game seriously.

Seventeen minutes later:Honestly this just feels lazy. Seventeen minutes after having a large POE list with everyone seemingly equal, he comes up with a probable mafia read. I don't understand the progression from pushing Eversince to a POE to scumreading Grackaroni back to voting for Eversince? Holyflare clearly said he thought both Eversince and Grackaroni were mafia:Really it's just the POE list here that is rather out of place. Why does he go from having two strong scumreads, presumably solving the game, then start taking the game seriously only to instantaneously arrive at the same two strong scumreads?

To me this is the strongest point. About two and a half hours before the lynch, Holyflare says that he would slightly prefer lynching Grackaroni over Eversince:Day 1 vote count

Vote Count, Eight Minutes to EoD

Eversince: (5) raynpelikoneet, Eywa-, Holyflare, Conversion, Grackaroni
Grackaroni: (4) Trfel, Pandain, jockmcplop, Eversince

If Holyflare changed his vote to Grackaroni, Grackaroni would be lynched instead of Eversince. Let's assume that Eversince's posts and discussion with Holyflare caused Holyflare to change his mind and prefer lynching Eversince to lynching Grackaroni. But even still, Holyflare very obviously preferred lynching Grackaroni to lynching anyone else. With obvious shenanigans coming (evidence to follow), Holyflare here could either: push hard for an Eversince lynch to try and make sure he gets his preferred lynch, or vote for Grackaroni, a lynch he is happy with, to prevent shenanigans off of his preferred lynch targets.

Posts in the thread in the last eight minutes of Day 1, making it clear that shenanigans were incoming:Instead of voting for Grackaroni or persuading people not to switch votes, Holyflare argues with Eversince, accomplishing neither of these goals. He does make one post directed to the thread as a whole:But if he really wanted to prevent the shenanigans and the Conversion lynch, it would have been much more effective to push for Eversince and talk to the people present, instead of arguing with his extremely strong scumread. Holyflare carries a lot of influence and generally gets his way in mafia games, but here it feels like he just kinda let it happen.

I'm not going to provide quotes on this one, there are way too many. Choose a random page in the thread and you'll probably be over your head in examples.

Holyflare has spent a very significant amount of his filter arguing with his strong scumread. It's fairly well-known that arguing with scumreads isn't recommended, as they are likely mafia, so of course they will lie and never agree with you and have no town explanation for your points. Of course it is necessary to discuss with scumreads to help confirm your read, but Holyflare in this game does this in great excess, I've never seen him do this before. Very rarely does Holyflare address the thread, even in his large case (the largest case I've seen Holyflare make, by far), he's just trying to convince Eversince that she is mafia.
