    really? so mylo D2 if the mayor lynches town? even worse if the mayor/pardoner happens to be mafia....
    As to the second part, I dunno, I didn't really think a ton about it. I just don't count anything 100% out in terms of setup. It doesn't really matter anyway, no?

    I am not saying that Alakaslam wouldn't try to make himself mayor as mafia. He likely would. I feel that the way he has gone about it is genuine and towny.


    Hi trfel! Can you see how his run might not seem to me to come from a town perspective at all? Sure it looks like it but also you can also just as easily look at it as mafia trying to get free protection without having to risk anything because town gets the blame for the lynch and not slam.

    We should vote for him because his campaign validates him as town by its very nature?
    But he could just as easily be making this argument as mafia and playing the odds of a townkill by consent on day 1 for the free protection. He shouldn't get any towncred for the promise to do what town decides.

    Excluding the way he pushes suspicion at me (Trfel) for thinking that Alakaslam's mayoral campaign was towny, or posts including that. Regardless, Jockmcplop clearly criticized Alakaslam's mayoral campaign.

    I think Grack is mafia, and I think Trfel brought up the best point against him: he has been relatively active and running for mayor, but reading his filter, I have no sense of what is "platform" is and who he even wants lynched. That seems like the hallmark of scum "looking like they want to contribute."

    Shockeyy is remarkably disengaged in this game. He is existing, but again, no idea of what he wants to accomplish beyond his mayoral preferences.


    I disagree that townreads aren't important right now. They pretty much narrow down the pool of who can be mayor.
    Clearly shockeyy has no people townreading him so he won't be mayor.

    Out of the people claiming they want to be mayor, only slam and ticktock have said what they will do if elected.

    That's a problem. Out of those two I would probably prefer slam because at least he's been here enough that i'm confident he knows exactly what is happening.

    What's your take on Jock?


    His post about Trfel was a good one and I think he has the right view on Rayn. I'm not sure what his reasoning was for changing his mind on Slam.


    Although I didn't think slam's campaign naturally made him town, i never scumread him and still don't.
    So then what was the purpose of these posts about Alakaslam? If it stuck out so much, why didn't it result in a scumread? Or even an "I don't want this guy to be mayor"? It makes no sense from a town perspective.

    Jockmcplop didn't actually care or follow up on his posts about Alakaslam, despite having valid reasons to suspect Alakaslam and definitely valid reasons to be suspicious of his mayoral campaign.

    Slam's pliable argument IS his entire campaign. Vote for him because he must be town because a vote for him is a vote for whatever town decides, therefore he must be town.
    I don't see how that comes from a town perspective.

    Trfel's start is all full of contradictions. He seems ultra confident about slam's tone and then seems to drop that line of thought so easily.

I'm not sure how much incentive there is for mafia to want the mayor's bodyguard protection; how likely is it that mafia will be targeted with KP? There is no confirmed town KP, and a third party with KP (while not out of the question) would still have to target him, which is a bit strange too. Nothing Jockmcplop is saying is technically wrong: mafia could campaign to try and get the mayor protection and absolve themselves of responsibility by lynching town's target and getting townreads. But it's just not very compelling. Alakaslam could also be town doing exactly the same thing. The mafia motivation for that kind of play isn't really more compelling than the town motivation, I don't understand how it makes Alakaslam mafia.

    I feel like I worded that poorly but it's late at night so I'm not sure if I can say it any better right now. Let me know if that doesn't make sense.

    I think Jockmcplop is likely my top suspect at this time.


    I thought I made it pretty clear I was more critical of you townreading slam than i was of slam's run.

    You are exactly right that slam's run *could* be from a town perspective, but my problem was that you immediately assumed it was from a town perspective and didn't even consider the idea that mafia could be doing the same thing for mafia reasons.

    I'm unvoting grack because I don't feel like he has continued to engage with the mayor thing at all really like he never really wanted to be mayor in the first place.

    Trfel seems like an odd choice to me. He hasn't said he wanted to be mayor and has given no indication of what he would do if he was mayor. I can't vote for him anyway.
    (emphasis mine)

    This is by far the strongest suspicion Jockmcplop has shared in his entire filter. However, Jockmcplop never even directly says he is suspicious of me, or scumreading me, or anything to that effect. He never advocates for a lynch on me.

    In the end, he ends up slightly advocating for a lynch on Tictock:

    Calling Tictock lazy, not even mafia. This means that Jockmcplop is content having essentially no scumreads, almost no suspicions, the entire Day 1. He can try to explain it away as a mayoral election, yet he still says it's important to know what the candidates will do if elected. This isn't the insightful town Jockmcplop I am used to seeing.

    It's not a matter of time either, as Jockmcplop said he had plenty of time to play today:

    You are exactly right that slam's run *could* be from a town perspective, but my problem was that you immediately assumed it was from a town perspective and didn't even consider the idea that mafia could be doing the same thing for mafia reasons.
    @First paragraph: I see, sorry I missed that.

    @Second paragraph: It's the way that Alakaslam was going about his campaign that seemed towny to me, not the fact about it. Mostly a tonal read at first. I do think that the "pliability" argument is more likely to come from town, as (in my opinion) lynch blame doesn't really exist and as a result, it feels a bit strange for mafia to come up with that argument. But the tonal read was the main part of my read.

    In other news, I really do want you to be town this game But right now, I'm just not seeing it. You feel minimally involved and not very invested. I assume you disagree with my assessment?



    No you're exactly right. I haven't had a whole lot of time so far but i'm here all day (minus video game playing time of course) today so you'll get more out of me.
    Yet even in a short game, seems content with having no scumreads. The simplest and most likely explanation is that he is mafia.

Conclusion
Jockmcplop hasn't accomplished anything this game. He has no scumreads, almost no suspicions even, yet seems very content with this. His words and posts also don't match the (lack of) conclusions he draws from them. In combination with not caring about who is lynched Day 1, Jockmcplop is very likely mafia.

the conclusion to this case can be said about a number of people this game, and this seems to be the reason Trfel is confident about jock being mafia for the remainder of the game so far. Ok, I get that I suck at committing to games then flaking but it's not like this makes someone mafia, just uninterested. As evidenced by the flip and my alignment.

ANYWAY not trying to talk shit when I haven't done anything and also called jock mafia but i'm just saying the confidence with which you proclaim your read is based on 'he isn't putting in effort' which seems like a shaky foundation.

I suppose technically I could use my pardoner ability to hold town hostage and get the lynch I want but I'll stop tempting myself That's never getting used. Even if I am lynched.

Was kinda a joke, would probably be the worst scum team for town to deal with. Though I would love to find solid reasons to keep the paranoia at Bay.

Honestly I am not totally sure how to read them well. I have only played with Hapa once and I was mafia so him not feeling as obviuse town as I was him that game is not a good basis for a read. Still that feeling and not really liking/agreeing with his reads this game has me a little sus.

As for Rayn I have been able to see where Rayn is coming from in general and have agreed with his reads, so is most likely town. However his play does feel in line with his mafia play in that he doesn't have as clear a focus as I tend to see him have and was willing to do what other people wanted over his own prefferrance as Mayor. None of that is really sufficient to call him scum but it does keep me from having a lock town read on him.

Right now I do not understand where Rayn is coming from and disagree with his reads but am wanting to see his responses before I go much further on that.

And just for a disclaimer: None of this effects the current state of the game where we should be lynching Jock kus he is super likely to flip mafia.


ok why is he super likely to flip mafia?

Oh and before I filter, I don't find Rayns case on FF very compelling either. Ff is low effort but his tone has been reading as town to me.

I kinda even want to say Rayn is mafia for saying Jock is town. There is like no reason.the Ryan I know could say the filter I just read is a confident town read.

Jock is like the definition of blendy sidelining. I see at most 2 interesting posts (not a simple question or fluff) and one of those is softing a scum read on Trfel for changing his mind...

##Vote: Jock


so from not having an opinion of jock, saying "Oh and before I filter, I don't find Rayns case on FF very compelling either." to indicate he's going to look at filters to "jock is so mafia wow rayn could be mafia for not thinking so" in 7 minutes.

That's weird. Interestingly enough it would make sense to be oppositional with rayn as mafia because the bodyguard mechanic makes lynching the only viable way to kill rayn. red flag for later insspection but I must continue my work

I know you said you can see both Jockmcplop and Vivax as mafia, but it's hard for me to see you actually caring about who gets lynched, you just seem to be willing to vote for whoever thread sentiment is against. On one hand it's good to be willing to consolidate in a majority lynch game, on the other hand it seems suspect to not even care...


Jock doesn’t scum read anybody this game. He slightly hints that you and I are mafia somehow. He pushes for Grack as mayor, although this isn’t alignment indicative, but rather push Grack after ignoring how 3p his first post was. Those are enough for me to vote Jock.

ok yeah he has basically the same reasons as everyone else more or less.

Noooo, talk to me.....

@ShoCkeyy, why are you changing votes (assuming you are)? I know you said you can see both Jockmcplop and Vivax as mafia, but it's hard for me to see you actually caring about who gets lynched, you just seem to be willing to vote for whoever thread sentiment is against. On one hand it's good to be willing to consolidate in a majority lynch game, on the other hand it seems suspect to not even care...


Jock doesn’t scum read anybody this game. He slightly hints that you and I are mafia somehow. He pushes for Grack as mayor, although this isn’t alignment indicative, but rather push Grack after ignoring how 3p his first post was. Those are enough for me to vote Jock.
ShoCkeyy, weren't all of these things true earlier when you voted for Vivax instead of Jockmcplop? Please explain?


What’s there to explain? I’m consolidating my vote, both are viable targets for me. There’s hardly any substance to Jock over Vivax.

wait what, ok...

I don’t like that so many are voting jock. It can’t be a jock and Rayn team

Hedging right before lynch too, interesting.

also a red flag for the same reason as above killing rayn via lynch is the best way to do so for mafia.


Vivax

Certainly would help if Jock came back and posted something.

I'm a bit worried that he's the only viable wagon. But I'll vote for him in the meantime.
Anyone else around?

@ Jock

I have noticed that you have been critical of Slam's "joke" candidacy.

Why then are you voting for Grack's campaign?


Where are you getting the 'joke' candidacy thing from?
I'm more critical of people assuming that slam's campaign makes him town, and i'm critical of slam putting that idea forward too. I have never said anything about slam's campaign being a joke or that i think about it in that way. I don't think he's joking at all.

I'm voting for grack because he was thinking along similar lines to me as regards to slam's campaign not making him town, and bought it up in the thread before I did, so I gave him town points.

I figure I'm better off voting for someone other than myself as mayor because i'm more likely to be able to pick out a town and help them be mayor than i am to do anything useful if i was mayor. At the moment grack has town points so he has my vote.


This post is also giving me pause. Because on the followup Hapa avoids to answer Jocks question where he got the joke candidacy from. I don't know if it has been adressed afterwards though.

very hedged vote, pretty lazy but not mafia indicitive in my opinion since early on vivax was calling jock mafia and it's not like jock posted anything to make vivax mention him again so total pass from me

Brief skim.

Vivax's attitudes towards wanting to get lurkers before active players generally makes sense. I think his recent posting is much better. I've discussed some of my thoughts on Jocks filter previously. He hasn't posted, and that makes him as good of a lynch as any... even if the lack of resistance bothers me.

Frankly, I'm pretty lost this game. I should have more time to play after the holiday weekend ends if I am alive. Hopefully getting rid of an inactive player will help thin the weeds or flip a red.

Seems to be a thing atm to just say x is mafia without pointing out anything in specific, ignore questions and peace out again.

At least that's the pattern for Jock and Slam on the last page. For Jock minus the x is mafia but it leaves a bad aftertaste that he dodges or misses Hapas question.

Either way Trfel seems like a reasonable choice for mayor. Pretty much my only TR at this point aside from tentatively ticktock.

I'm kinda in a hurry so hoped I could do more during these hours.

In case someone wants to make me mayor, as in a rebellious maniac who mostly tryhards, here's my program.
If I become mayor I'd use it as a vig shot on Shockeyy or FF if they don't rack up at least 2 pages of filter til the end of the day. That's the only thing that makes sense on a D1 with the awful scum hit rate and peeps should know.

Otherwise I don't trust anyone to be able to figure out Shockeyy anyway.

When they rack up the two pages under duress, my watchful gaze, I'd just try to compromise on a lynch with whom I think is town.


Where did Jock dodge/miss my question? Upon a review of the thread, he answered what I asked of him to my knowledge.

Yes, I agree that Jock was much more "blatant" last scumgame I played with him.

Regarding Grack - I can't be sure especially in an "inactive" game like this. I'm really never sure about any D1 case, but I hope players realize that I have a pretty darn high D1 scum lynch rate. He is the strongest read that I have, and that is enough for me to want to lynch him on D1.

Honestly, I don't remember anything that Jock said this game, which probably makes him mafia.


I mean I guess that's not a huge contradiction but a big meh from this guy


conclusion

I will say my preliminary scumreads for the next day are tictock and shockkckckckeeeyyy pending further investigation.

Thank you for coming to my ted talk

Damn, that sucks.

I talked about my Hapa read with you already Trfel? Plus the roleblock thing seemed legit, even though you could argue Hapa was using that as cover to dodge the game. It's a weird time though and we just lynched a townie who had disappeared so prob not a good metric.

Yes, my apologies, this makes sense. Do you have any thoughts on my other question, about your read on Fecalfeast?

He had made several posts before this, so why is he making apologies and excuses. His next post even suggests he remembered he was running for mayor.
Except, the issue is that the post quoted happened in between these two posts from Tictock (link). So then, Tictock is maybe just making up a reason later to justify his scumread when the reason didn't previously exist.... Or, he had some other reason to kill Fecalfeast.

Tictock?

I'm around.

7 players.
I'm town. Hapahauli claimed blue. Five left, two mafia.

If raynpelikoneet is mafia, he's playing exceptionally well. I almost want to call him mafia because I am not sure who is mafia and it almost feels like TMI on Jockmcplop, but that's not really fair. I don't have any actual reasons to call him mafia, so he is most likely town.

Tictock feels towny, he's felt especially invested as of late. I remember him being able to replicate his town play fairly well as mafia, however his most recent mafia game has much more rigid posting than this game. So tone also says he is town. I would say Tictock is a good chance of being town, but could be wrong.

Leaves Fecalfeast, ShoCkeyy, and Vivax. I looked through Fecalfeast and ShoCkeyy's filters earlier and didn't find very much useful stuff. While I'm glad Fecalfeast has started to put a bit more effort in, I haven't yet seen anything too alignment indicative. Though I could very well be missing stuff. Vivax also feels towny to me, though that's just a weak impression and I still need to check his filter.

Honestly everyone kinda feels like town, which isn't a great place to be Makes me wonder if raynpelikoneet or Hapahauli is mafia after all. I will review Hapahauli's filter but I can't find any reasons to justify them being mafia though So I dunno. Bleh.

I see FF investigating why people vote to lynch someone after they flip. And come to conclusion all reasons were bad (surprise?) as the dude was town.

Something else to note is that if raynpelikoneet is town, knowing that I am town, mafia didn't attempt to campaign for mayor at all. I find this really strange. I don't think it means that raynpelikoneet is mafia, rather I think it means that mafia just didn't have a ton of thread influence at the time. Dunno if it is helpful, probably not, but I'm trying.

Raynpelikoneet, I don't imagine you want to talk to me today?

I dont really want to talk with anyone today. It's quite amazing when i am town either everyone thinks i am mafia or everyone thinks i am town but noone listens to me even though they might have voted me for mayor...

But youre kinda right, i feel like it's especially useless talking with you atm since i am quite confident you are mafia with FF and even if you are town you either stick to whatever you believe anyways, or say youre gonna look at something and then in fact straight out do nothing about it.

I feel like I'm pretty easy to have my opinion swayed? And if I say I'll look at something, I always do, even if I don't report back my results. I also have no real opinions right now so it would be hard to stick to my own beliefs.

If I wasn't in the game, who would be mafia with Fecalfeast? I'll go remind myself why you are scumreading Fecalfeast so strongly.

No, wait, I remember now why you are scumreading Fecalfeast. Hm.

I mean, you could be right, I just have scumread Fecalfeast so much when he is town, I'm hesitant to do so here. Even if the reasons are more blatant. Which maybe makes me bad. But I'm bad anyway, so it doesn't really say much...

I think the question is really idiotic since you're wanting me to do something i don't believe in. Even if youre town how can you possibly get a "reliable" answer since i already know i can't give you one as don't really think it is true?

I can say though that the only people i am very confident being town atm are TT and shockeyy. I am not too fond of going into reasons for it in detail now, but it basically has to do with my + TT talk yesterday and him acting during eod1. For shockeyy it's just several things he has said during the game i would not expect him to say as mafia, like ever. Ironically that appears to be FF's scumlist from the not-good-cases-against-jock list. I think Vivax looks fairly town from D2 too.

Hapa is kinda sketchy, especially his post before deadline. As i said i find it very weak especially for hapa. I am not too interested in him atm though, since he either claims rb or is shot. I dont really believe one third of the townies (originally) are blue so hapa situation will resolve itself tomorrow anyways most likely.

FF opened by taking my joke claim seriously and kinda used that to push me most of D1. That struck me as mafia looking for an easy thing to jump on.

I thought his second entry to the thread was more compelling as it suggested he had forgotten he'd already made a few posts. Now I am not so sure why that made more sense to come from from mafia but that is where my head was at then.

FF seems like a good lynch tomorrow, though since we will be in mylo we should try and make the best of the time we have. I might put in some time this phase but will probably try at Day.

Figured I'd take a quick look at slams filter just kus I thought him being killed N1 might have been a bit revealing but I have to assume this post tipped off mafia that he was cop.

Otherwise I am the only person implicated by this kill, by way of me being Slams major scum read.

Fair enough, I suppose we'll see eventually.

In other news, I kinda like Alakaslam this game. Which likely means he's mafia, he has a tendency to be the opposite alignment of whatever I think he is

If possible, I think it may be wise to control the votes such that all of the votes are on the same person, thus making there no Pardoner as there is no one in second place (or would it then be randomized... so many questions). Though unfortunately that seems very difficult to control, and if it's possible to vote for oneself, it may be worthwhile for mafia to ninja vote because it would take two lynches to eliminate them. Maybe not such a good idea after all. Ah well.

Hi all Any thoughts about Alakaslam?

I disagree. That gives pardoner to mafia as you say here? What?

You are saying you town read me and therefore scum read me?

Not good sir collect thoughts or get caught


TT let’s go back to rayns Trfel is mafia. Going back to Slams posts, this one stood out the most to me, since that’s what happened if Trfel is mafia. It seemed like forewarning too.

I’m willing to train the though of Trfel being mafia and the pardoner

I am willing to entertain Trfel being mafia, but I don't see how pardoner matters really. Kus if he uses it it's a scum claim.

Should be 4v2 tomorrow. If the lynch is prevented it's 3v2 d4 and clear who to lynch

Even if he were to wait and allow his partner to be lynched then it's 3v1 D4 and pardoning his own lynch would also not win a scum!Trfel the win.
