Alright, well I read up (mostly) and I have a very obvious conclusion... Eywa is town.


I have a few other thoughts... I'm town on copcake and FeFe at the moment too... Maybe vivax as well, but undecided as of yet.

I have some scum reads, but I need to filter a bit more to confirm.

I could see both HF and Rayn being mafia.

Rayn condemning my playstyle here while acknowledging a good performance in my last town game before this one is really suspect.

HF shooting through PoE right now seems to go against his typical playstyle.

I'm pretty sure I do the same thing every single game I've ever played.

Pretty sure, but hard to tell when you're mafia?

I don't know what you mean with “leg work” but Rayn explained to Vivax why I am town in his mindset and told me that Vivax is town directly to me.



Leg work means he put in real effort to determine his scum read on people. He is saying that my read on him is bull shit because he put in so much effort that I should read him as an alignment because he spent so much time figuring out both Vivax and yourself.

Do those posts look like he put in that effort? It just says Vivax doesn't play as mafia and Copcake is town and nothing more. Does that look like so much effort that we should town read him for it like he says?


He put A LOT of effort in the me vs FF trying to explaun why I am town.

Like literally a lot.


I don't think less than a handful of posts is a lot of effort but that's just me. I also see a way you could be mafia from the situation he says you must be town in so that's why I don't particularly read rayn one way or another.



Mistake, read the bolded part as if you were changing your opinion.

And now let me ask: who would you lynch rn? From your list.



Eywa.

I wouldn't be surprised if mafia were 2 of HF, Rayn and Jockmcplop.

The first two being prioritized there.

Preferably squishy because he's mafia.

I'm not liking this from Jockmcplop, after day 1 pocket attempt. I think this is an attempt to quickly adapt to the lines that were drawn by other players (mainly me going against Rayn).

Pocketing move:

The problem with that list for me is that they are all afk and at least Eywa-, rayn and FF are going to be very useful later on if they are town.


I don't really see the value in town!jock throwing this out if he's just going to default scum reads to these players when they start being active day 2...

I mean, Rayn stayed inactive and he's not scum reading Rayn, so it seems to go against what he's trying to accomplish here with his "townie move".

You are not exactly a town read of mine but let’s play a game.

In a world in which jock is mafia, who are his mates?

Rayn or HF. HF making the most sense.

Also, it seems like Rayn is faking emotional involvement which he tends to do as scum. Like, oh, I'm all worked up... But I don't want to step on anyone's toes.

That last part isn't included in his town game, not in the slightest.

The rest of your case is that my posting quality is low. I mean, it's obviously the same as any of the other games I played on this site. I don't see my posting quality here as being alignment indicative at all.

??? Not it at all. Your scum reads don't make sense and shouldn't exist because all the reasoning you've provided has been refuted and you've given nothing else to prove why you maintain those reads.

If you state things like x, y, z is mafia because of a, b, c but it turns out a, b, c just aren't true but you don't reevaluate and instead maintain x, y, z are scummy for that then that's not just a bad read, that is flagrant misrepresentation and an agenda to blend in with doing work. There is one alignment that does that.

Furthermore, if you think you actually had something on rayn's appeal to emotion post why did you not ever try and evaluate why he posted it?

Your reasoning is bringing you down a rabbit hole of lynching town, so... It must be good

Rayn's page 2 of his filter is so god awful, someone please take a look with this guy and come out with a town read. I don't know that is possible.

It also seems that Rayn thinks the mafia team will win, which leaves me with another player he has confidence in being his partner... Which probably explains why he is slacking hard this game.

I didn't mind the squishy read, but then I went back and read... He scum read vivax all of day 1 (who was a universal town read), I don't know why scum ever do this.

I'm going to go with... Unlikely that squishy is mafia based on day 1.

I'm thinking more and more that this is just mafia and it's pointless for me to beat my head against this wall.

Honestly, it makes a lot of sense for the two more argumentative players of the game to try to focus the game on making and breaking cases... Especially if they're mafia. As town, you're more just concerned with people voting your way because you don't have to discredit other players.

Think squishy is mafia too. Too much tmi stuff.


I'm going back and honestly I think I might have been reading him from the wrong POV.
I still don't like his start of day 2.

There seems to be many people he's comfortable saying they are probably not mafia and I was looking at it from the point of view of him trying to get reads out where he hadn't thought about it but maybe he's not doing that and he just has loads of people as null.

Like I try to confirm people as town, maybe squishy doesn't and that's what's making me think he's mafia.
I'm worried about cognitive bias here because everything I'm reading of his jumps out at me as mafia but I dunno man.

Maybe I'll go back and see what's there from a TMI point of view instead. I'm still keeping him as a scumread for now, just for his overall lack of contributions (also I still dislike that list post + day 2 start) but I'm not entirely convinced by my own case on him tbh.

The thing with chezinu (#406) probably not being mafia at a point where he had only posted irrelevant nonsense is weird to me. Chezinu could objectively have been any alignment. The only way you could say probably not mafia is that only 2/10 people are mafia so its the same probably not as everyone else if you don't have any town reads.


SQUISHY:


I'd like to know if you have any solid town reads at this point. Your list post doesn't have any in it at all.

Also could you respond to the point about your chezinu read because that's really weird why you would say probably not mafia when he's chezinu. How could you know (or even have any clue at all) whether or not he's mafia at that point?

I don't like your thought process, it seems like you're indirectly justifying your read in this one with the option to later withdraw on a town flip.

Is it as simple as 2 of HF, Rayn and Jock?

Think squishy is mafia too. Too much tmi stuff.


I'm going back and honestly I think I might have been reading him from the wrong POV.
I still don't like his start of day 2.

There seems to be many people he's comfortable saying they are probably not mafia and I was looking at it from the point of view of him trying to get reads out where he hadn't thought about it but maybe he's not doing that and he just has loads of people as null.

Like I try to confirm people as town, maybe squishy doesn't and that's what's making me think he's mafia.
I'm worried about cognitive bias here because everything I'm reading of his jumps out at me as mafia but I dunno man.

Maybe I'll go back and see what's there from a TMI point of view instead. I'm still keeping him as a scumread for now, just for his overall lack of contributions (also I still dislike that list post + day 2 start) but I'm not entirely convinced by my own case on him tbh.

The thing with chezinu (#406) probably not being mafia at a point where he had only posted irrelevant nonsense is weird to me. Chezinu could objectively have been any alignment. The only way you could say probably not mafia is that only 2/10 people are mafia so its the same probably not as everyone else if you don't have any town reads.

What would the point in doing that be if i was mafia?
It barely makes sense.
Its like you're trying to prove rayn's case on you true.

*Shrug*

I don't think you intentionally conveyed it, but that's what I see. Your blindness to the situation is really not alignment indicative, but bad if you're town. Pretty sure 2/3 is mafia.

I'm getting lynched, so you can all prepare your defense for when I flip. I imagine it'll be easy enough to sway the sheep.

For the record, I also think it's bad if any of you allow me to convince you to switch your vote, because you should never listen to your top scum read.

So, read Rayn's filter and then make up your own mind and if you come to the wrong conclusion today (which I'm betting you will), vote Rayn tomorrow... But tbh, we probably still lose in that case.

Oh wait though, I just figured it out. Maybe Rayn thought town was going to lose because scum was afk all of day 1. That must be it... I always think town is going to lose when I'm scum reading an afk slot.

Seriously guys, think about it... RAYN said "This is going to end badly for town" when I was afk... And he's scum reading my slot...?

How would you think it's going to end badly for town if scum is afk? Shouldn't those be the easiest of games?

Eywa (6): raynpelikoneet, Holyflare, Fecalfest, Chezinu, Copcake, jockmcplop
raynpelikoneet (1): Eywa
FecalFeast (1): reps)squishy
reps)squishy (0): FecalFeast, jockmcplop
Holyflare (0): Chezinu
jockmcplop (0): FecalFeast

Not Voting (0): None

I suppose the convenient theory is that it's just me and squishy... Any other theory pretty much indicates that you should move the wagon elsewhere.

So, kill me today, then vote Rayn tomorrow, HF day 4... HF seems to have an unsually high amount of his posts claiming what his reads are and who he's going to vote, also a decent number of non-game related posts... Page 2 of his filter is especially bad in this regard and very unlike his town game.

About 25% of posts claiming his reads is pretty high for HF who is usually more inquisitive.

It just gives people a chance to know where my head is at when I have a limited amount of time to play and then I can respond to any questions about my reads if they arise. Not particularly my fault everyone just writes me off as town other than you.

I'm still not particularly sure what you even actually scum read me for. First it was poeing which wasn't even true and now it's?

Mainly POE, I think there are a decent amount of players town telling. You and Jock just happen to be voting really poorly if you're town, so that plays into it as well. I think FF is very susceptible to sheeping as town, which is a serious weakness in his town game, but I can see how that would provide him cover if he is in fact scum here.

Outside of that, I don't think anyone is scum.

So... The poe is just

Rayn
HF
Jock
FF

I think FF has made some relatively towny posts and the poor play could be just his sheeping town style even when it leads to his loss or is directly contrary to his objectives and reads (i.e. last game).

Rayn being afk is probably his biggest scum tell, also the fact that he's intentionally not engaging in anything that might cause drama, he's intentionally not stepping on anyone's toes.

Lack of interaction between HF/Rayn seems to indicate that at least one of the two is scum. Specifically, lack of meaningful interactions and conflict.

HF is just poe, either bad instincts or scum. I don't know how an experienced player is on this wagon and thinks... Hmmm, this wagon looks Kosher, it's just Squishy and Eywa-

Jock well, I think some of his posts are actually pretty scummy, but I can't get over the total lack of self-awareness from HF... Though, that could be telling that Jock hasn't really demonstrated much of anything in response to me in comparison.

Don't believe his bs. He did the exact same thing last game where he only starts to do things when people call him mafia.

Just read his content. Now I'm only mafia from poe and voting poorly but that was never the case before. Pretty sure I've been his scum read since n1. His manipulation of playing the "I don't care" thing is also how he said he'd play it in the mafia QT last game and pretty much his play is identical.

Look at how he's trying to appease me saying now my vote is just poor and it's poe instead of treating me as the mafia aggressor pushing his needed mislynch. It's all a game.

If I scum read you from day 1, then how am I scum?

You're not going to convince anyone you're not mafia so you may as well spend the rest of the cycle telling people why Rayn is mafia instead.

How about I was right last time and no one listened and vivax also agreed on it?

Just saying its good for town doesn't necessarily make it so. In my eyes its good for town to kill mafia right now. Voting for mafia is therefore good for town.

I actually like eywa's reaction to being lynched. The focus on rayn, hf and myself is the townie thing to do given that he thinks we are scum and the way he mentions comparing reads at the end of the game also is the kind of thing town eywa would say.
Mafia eywa was more focused on everyone else being bad instead of thinking his reads were better than everyone elses. These are only little things but they are in eywa's favour compared to branch who imo has no redeeming features. I also think eywa was going inevitably going to die this game because his mafia and town games are so similar and he won as mafia in the last game. That doesn't make him more likely to be scum.

Also it kinda feels like everyone's just lynching with the biggest grandest case in the thread instead of looking at people objectively. There's nothing bad for town in re-evaluating that and if no-one provides a reasonable alternative vote we are just going to sleepwalk to whoever was the biggest wagon the whole time.

This happened a bunch of times in the last game on here, everyone just got on a wagon and stayed there and honestly I think in that game almost everyone on the lynch was doubting it by the end of each day but didn't want to offend town by changing so we ended up with mislynch after mislynch.

I'm asking everyone to re-evaluate. Don't just vote for eywa because there's a big shiny case with a picture. If people look at it again and decide eywa is a better lynch, so be it. Squishy is a better lynch imo. Lynch the most likely scum.


ALSO COPCAKE:
Your point about paranoid town makes zero sense because the second time you defended him he changed his read on you from scum to hard town so he isn't even playing the game by his own rules in that case.


Dude, he told you that he liked I didn't got angry when he pointed the gun at me because yes is true that I defended him but I had good intentions.

Mafia would had gotten mad and offended.


Do you even scum read me? You haven't really voiced an opinion on my play.

Eywa isn't in my town pile although i do like his response to being lynched. You're right that he had no response to rayn's case.
Maybe you're right and its just his plan after being caught as scum. I dunno. I feel it with squishy though. tbf you asked eywa to shenanigan onto squishy and he decided not to. I think you should and so should he, but eywa doesn't believe that squishy is mafia and isn't doing that.
That's interesting in itself save for the possibility that they are both mafia which they could be i guess.

I'm sorry I'm not sure I understand how voting eywa gets rayn back. From what I remember of his angry post it looked like it was you he was angry at as much as eywa. Or was it just people thinking he was scum again that made him angry? Its hard to tell with rayn. But I don't think we should be lynching anyone who calls him scum just to get him to play. That's not playing mafia, as rayn would say.


I won't lynch Squishy, because if he's town, I die at LyLo, it's better if you kill me now so that my reads can carry more weight into LyLo rather than going on a potential townie.

Also, Rayn going afk for significant parts of the game and coming back just to poke around is a mirror image of his latest scum performance.
Being mannered is almost as important as winning. Almost...

Ok,

So I guess it's time that I address the elephant in the room... Raynpelikoneet, how are you?

So yeah i actually am not just pissed off but have reasoning on why Eywa is mafia. Let's start with these quotes from past two games. Last game, after the game (so there is no reason to lie about anything) Eywa said this:

I think killing him before getting his reads developed is a net loss for town though. I think he's almost always a good day 2 kill for reasons stated above though.

Now i don't know what the last sentence says, i guess it is trying to say kill me N2 as mafia (as Eywa was mafia), otherwise the whole paragraph doesn't even make any sense.

This is from the game before, Eywa was town in that game so once again there is no reason for him to lie about what he says here. The bolded parts are important (read the whole chain of quotes):

idk we can continue with mafia theory after the game.

I agree Trfel has been making bad posts. I think Jock's posts have more mafia motivation behind them though. Maybe it's a difference on how we see the game, maybe you are right maybe i am. I think i am. May i ask you though why did you scumread me last game since you were clearly wrong and i literally made one case that was good and on mafia?

I scum read you every game, it's pretty much my default since I haven't figured out how to get a read on you... I find it very difficult to come to mutual ground with you on pretty much everything.

We townread each other in the stupid multi-faction game. Although that should not really be used as an example because i didn't really care shit about town in that game when i figured out i can make a deal with mafia and win N1. I don't think you have seen me playing as scum though?

No, I haven't. But, yeah... Moral of the story I don't know how to read you yet.




Now to this game, here are Eywa's first two posts:

Alright, well I read up (mostly) and I have a very obvious conclusion... Eywa is town.


I have a few other thoughts... I'm town on copcake and FeFe at the moment too... Maybe vivax as well, but undecided as of yet.

I have some scum reads, but I need to filter a bit more to confirm.

On August 19 2019 21:43 Vivax wrote:
But rayn is still mafia, unless he is town on sedatives.

I actually agree with this 100%.

First thing to note here is that in the first post Eywa doesn't post scumreads but instead says he needs to read filters to confirm. Second post says he 100% agrees with Vivax that i am mafia (i don't accept answer "or on sedatives" because after that he starts gunning on me but more on that later). The problem here is that either Eywa read my filter in one minute since that's the difference in times between those posts or that read is bs because if he already had a scumread on me i can't see any reason why the scumread on me isn't in the first post, who cares about town reads when you have a clear scumread? Another thing here (especially regarding the quotes from past games) is that (1) based on how he views my play regarding past games he should NOT have a scumread on me (especially based on the reasoning later on) and (2) in this game, based on what he has posted in his first post and later on we actually agree with pretty much on everything!!!! I also have FF and Cake as town, I also have Vivax town (those are his town reads), i also at least had HF as mafia at this point (which is Eywa's next scumread), so why am i scum again?? Because Eywa -- as per his words -- "tends to scumread me in every game because he finds it very difficult to come to mutual ground with you on pretty much everything"?

Then let's go onto his reasoning of why i am mafia:

Rayn condemning my playstyle here while acknowledging a good performance in my last town game before this one is really suspect.

I hate his playstyle except for the last game where he actually provided very good reasoning on my mafia partner and also on other people, something that is definitely not happening here. There is nothing scummy in calling his play here on this game bad because it is bad for a townie.

HF shooting through PoE right now seems to go against his typical playstyle.

I don't know what you mean with “leg work” but Rayn explained to Vivax why I am town in his mindset and told me that Vivax is town directly to me.



Leg work means he put in real effort to determine his scum read on people. He is saying that my read on him is bull shit because he put in so much effort that I should read him as an alignment because he spent so much time figuring out both Vivax and yourself.

Do those posts look like he put in that effort? It just says Vivax doesn't play as mafia and Copcake is town and nothing more. Does that look like so much effort that we should town read him for it like he says?


He put A LOT of effort in the me vs FF trying to explaun why I am town.

Like literally a lot.


I don't think less than a handful of posts is a lot of effort but that's just me. I also see a way you could be mafia from the situation he says you must be town in so that's why I don't particularly read rayn one way or another.



Mistake, read the bolded part as if you were changing your opinion.

And now let me ask: who would you lynch rn? From your list.



Eywa.

Omgus

Na-ah bro, by your (wrong) definition of omgus you're the one omgusing because HF called you mafia first so this omgus thing makes you mafia now right?


Here is his scumread on Jock:

Preferably squishy because he's mafia.

I'm not liking this from Jockmcplop, after day 1 pocket attempt. I think this is an attempt to quickly adapt to the lines that were drawn by other players (mainly me going against Rayn).

Pocketing move:
On August 19 2019 01:18 Jockmcplop wrote:
The problem with that list for me is that they are all afk and at least Eywa-, rayn and FF are going to be very useful later on if they are town.


I don't really see the value in town!jock throwing this out if he's just going to default scum reads to these players when they start being active day 2...

I mean, Rayn stayed inactive and he's not scum reading Rayn, so it seems to go against what he's trying to accomplish here with his "townie move".

So i don't really care what Eywa is actually trying to say Jock's scum motive is because i don't really understand the post in total but here's what i understand. The first post Eywa quoted from Jock is the post that triggers the scumread, without the first quoted post the second one (Jock made D1) isn't scummy because Eywa says "if he's just going to default [to something later on]". Sooo...

Sooo... The problem here once again is that Eywa scumreads Jock before Jock has made the post he scumreads Jock for.



TLDR;

- Once again this picture fits. 2 out of 3 of Eywa's scumreads are based on stuff that happens AFTER they are his scumreads. Basically he is picking a target and then starts "finding reasons for why they are mafia". And that is a fucking mafia thing to do.
[image loading]

- Reasoning on me doesn't even make sense based on what he has said before and what has happened in this game reads wise, neither does one on Holyflare. Not gonna defend Jock for Jock because i don't really care to figure out why some weird pocketing theory and other shit would be the most possible answer.

So that's pretty much my 2c for today, i see again a lot of arguing between my townreads and last day phse i tried to engage and get the people who i think are town together but apparently that's same as doing nothing so you guys do whatever you do and i can go actually do nothing (or something else at least).

##vote Eywa-

Good night.

First off the quote:

I actually think Rayn reads the game pretty well, but his play style is pretty hard for me to work with, I find it very anti-town at times when it involves getting into arguments.

I think killing him before getting his reads developed is a net loss for town though. I think he's almost always a good day 2 kill for reasons stated above though

So...

1... He hasn't been so abrasive this game and has tried to make it easy for people to work with him. He has shown less willingness to go head to head in a situation where he might get lynched in order to make a point.

2... YES... That is exactly what I'm doing.


Let's move on, because there's a lot of elephant shit to get through here.

Rayn quotes:
No, I haven't. But, yeah... Moral of the story I don't know how to read you yet.

That was 2 games ago... Just after my first game as town!eywa vs scum!rayn... OF COURSE I WASN'T SURE HOW TO READ HIM BEFORE ANALYSIS.

Also... Mandatory "you once said you couldn't read me, so your read this game is invalid"



Now to this game... I might not make it through guys, so much shit.

Yes... I skimmed before posting in the thread and I already had some opinions formed, I was going to post something similar, but I was going back to check. Vivax posting just provided me the confirmation I was going back for anyway.

Yes... I got my town reads on those players from Rayn because I judged that he probably wouldn't have called out his scum partner so soon, that could be a misread from me, but it's just how I saw the situation.

So... Rayn, you're saying you're actually scum reading HF. I'm sorry, where is this being pushed in the thread? You think HF is just blatantly bussing me?

Now we're going through a bunch of reasons why Rayn isn't mafia.

Wait... I've completely missed where Eywa is mafia, yet I'm at the bottom of the case, ready for the TL;DR.

I guess it's some strong OMGUS and no one actually read Rayn's post, because they never read a thing the guy says.

Just saying its good for town doesn't necessarily make it so. In my eyes its good for town to kill mafia right now. Voting for mafia is therefore good for town.

I actually like eywa's reaction to being lynched. The focus on rayn, hf and myself is the townie thing to do given that he thinks we are scum and the way he mentions comparing reads at the end of the game also is the kind of thing town eywa would say.
Mafia eywa was more focused on everyone else being bad instead of thinking his reads were better than everyone elses. These are only little things but they are in eywa's favour compared to branch who imo has no redeeming features. I also think eywa was going inevitably going to die this game because his mafia and town games are so similar and he won as mafia in the last game. That doesn't make him more likely to be scum.

Also it kinda feels like everyone's just lynching with the biggest grandest case in the thread instead of looking at people objectively. There's nothing bad for town in re-evaluating that and if no-one provides a reasonable alternative vote we are just going to sleepwalk to whoever was the biggest wagon the whole time.

This happened a bunch of times in the last game on here, everyone just got on a wagon and stayed there and honestly I think in that game almost everyone on the lynch was doubting it by the end of each day but didn't want to offend town by changing so we ended up with mislynch after mislynch.

I'm asking everyone to re-evaluate. Don't just vote for eywa because there's a big shiny case with a picture. If people look at it again and decide eywa is a better lynch, so be it. Squishy is a better lynch imo. Lynch the most likely scum.


ALSO COPCAKE:
Your point about paranoid town makes zero sense because the second time you defended him he changed his read on you from scum to hard town so he isn't even playing the game by his own rules in that case.


Dude, he told you that he liked I didn't got angry when he pointed the gun at me because yes is true that I defended him but I had good intentions.

Mafia would had gotten mad and offended.


Do you even scum read me? You haven't really voiced an opinion on my play.



You have a "semi case" against Rayn; your biggest scum read, and you don't even read what he writes about you?

Yeah my vote is ok where it is.

To be honest, I actually haven't read it.

Rayn's case against me is entirely based on when I read the thread. Yet, he doesn't have that information... So how does that make sense? His case why I shouldn't be scum reading him also applies for reasons he shouldn't be scum reading me... (though I disagree with them in both directions)

And yes, my town game and scum game are fairly similar, if you can't read me, it's an OK play to lynch me. I'm not going to play the game differently to avoid my own lynch, it doesn't change the overall strength of my reads. Rayn is scum and should be out Day 3, HF can go next... But less confident there.

I'm not sure why you guys didn't sheep me... Rayn was obvious and Jock was PoE with 50/50 shot.

I think both HF and Jock are probably better scum players than town players, but the rest of the town felt very obvious with associative reads.

Like, I get the lynch... Though, if your followup plan is lynching squishy, you should at least give my reads a shot first because the chain lynch was an objectively bad play and the entire reason I didn't want to lynch squishy over me.

Beyond that though, after the flip, you need to give more attention to my reads, because I've never shown to have bad reads in my town games here.

Also, @HF, cases don't make sense because if I'm scum reading player A correctly and you're incorrectly scum reading player B... That means your view of what makes someone scum is incorrect, so in order to persuade you, I need to make up reasoning that is not actually alignment indicative... Since you're reading the game wrong, you're also not going to see why what I'm seeing is alignment indicative.

What you stated in the obs qt about following my reads is because I used to be a really good town player (at least, actually lynching mafia consistently) but that's changed nowadays and it feels like nobody really plays the style that is compatible with me and nobody has the time either (and neither do I to be honest. Don't care enough).

I think town people played relatively well in displaying their towniness though.

Yeah, I mean, I could see that. We definitely have very different play styles. I think everyone in the game needs to just understand better where they fit (within the current game state) and play accordingly in order for town to have success... This is 3 scum wins in a row, definitely a bit out of the ordinary.

o.o I had him in a poe of 2 and you refused to vote for him at any point this game. I don't think that one time you called him out counts for much.
