Having second thoughts about marvellosity. I think I do actually want to pursue this after all.

I enjoyed Alpha Zero pointing out that scott had basically answered his own question and giving it a red flag. I love shit like that.
What does it say about scott? I don't know
But rsoutlin also liked it so I guess I like Alpha and rsoultin at this early stage.

Trefl and rayn were posting a lot and having a discussion, i've always been a sucker for activity = town . But ngl I didn't read a lot of the posts and sort of glazed over.

That's an ok starting point.
Yeah idk. The more I think about this (plus his previous post where he says he doesn't like Vivax) the more I am suspicious.

If Kelsi3r doesn't know what AlphaZero's point about scott31337 means with regards to scott31337's alignment, that should lead to there being less reason to townread AlphaZero (and also anyone else) for this reasoning, no? Of course you don't always have to agree with someone's reasoning to think it makes them look towny, but it certainly helps. Furthermore, I could understand it better if he just said that it made AlphaZero look better, since they were the first to clearly lay out that line of thinking. But to add on that rsoultin looks good, purely for agreeing, when Kelsi3r himself doesn't even know if the point means anything for scott31337's alignment? Seems out of place.

And to add, the only person he said he didn't like, Vivax, also commented on this kind of idea. Vivax didn't put scott31337's posts in contrast like AlphaZero did, but he (rightfully) pointed out that one of scott31337's posts in question didn't make a ton of sense. It wasn't exactly the same idea, but it was somewhat similar, and this was (presumably) enough to make AlphaZero say that Vivax looks town. Kelsi3r seems to have ignored this entirely, however?

New top suspect, I think.

I agree with this, the logic doesn’t track.

I actually agreed with sand’s take on kelsier (sort of as a response to Scott here)

When I read mocstas vote on kelsier “you’re being intentionally obtuse”, I just thought well that’s a townie trait if ever I heard one
So marvellosity agreed with me that Kelsi3r's logic didn't make sense, but then still includes Kelsi3r in the "town" category because Mocsta said he was being obtuse and that's a town trait?

Reading through marvellosity's filter, I do still like that he acknowledged my point on Kelsi3r, and I like his line of questioning to Mocsta about his read change on me (Trfel). But he hasn't done really anything else of substance? It looks like his top suspects are scott31337 and Mocsta, and other than putting scott31337 at the bottom of his list post, he hasn't even mentioned him.

Just feels uncharacteristically disjointed. I don't get the impression that he is looking for mafia, and I don't get the impression that he cares enough about his (few) thoughts to remember them later.

I dont really care what marv does as long as he does something, that should tell enough. Marv can be looking "terrible" as town as well.

One of his something's however is a shit read on rsoultin. marv, elaborate on that?
Yes but he didn't do anything?

His mafia reads are scott31337, who he didn't even mention, and Mocsta, who he did ask a question or two to. It doesn't look like uninvested town marvellosity to me, it looks like he doesn't actually care about finding mafia.

Even uninterested town marvellosity would remember his thoughts for later. He wouldn't have many thoughts, but he would still care about the thoughts he did have.

No clue. Oatsmaster always confuses me.

There are two reasons to lynch Kelsi3r though. You disagreed with the first one, whatever, but how about how he only has four town lean ish things and no suspects and has been around but hasn't worked to change that?

So what was the point of your comment on Trfel?!

Felt off and stood out to me at that point on the thread, I'm content with not pursuing it since further reading points to town.


you stole my story

who do you wanna lynch if it's not still scott?

i'm bored of the scott conversation

I'm not over scott. That single post by dmb then fucking off does look really bad, could get behind that. Rayn liking your terrible reasoning without knowing what it is also moves him away from my townie lean

what are you talking about regarding me?

You said you liked rsoul read on me, then asked her what is the case against me. Explain

I "like her read" (lets put it this way -- because i do not necessarily agree with it) on you because in my experience rsoultin hates lying and taking a stance like that (which is not completely unreasonable), points towards her being town. I mean i can go further into this if you want to, but i just dont think she would accuse town!sandroba as mafia!rsoultin (even less if youre both mafia) like that.

Basically i don't agree with her, that what you said and did makes you mafia, but i think it makes her town.
@Alakaslam, it looks like you are posting as you catch up, but just in case that isn't true, here is the post you said you wanted to see.

I also bring this up to make a point about Kelsi3r. Raynpelikoneet does a very nice job of explaining how he can think someone is town due a read he doesn't agree with. My point though, is, see how it requires a meaningful explanation? Like without the explanation, it doesn't make sense. I can kinda understand Kelsi3r townreading AlphaZero for his scott31337 post, but I really can't understand townreading rsoultin for being interested in AlphaZero's scott31337 post. If he had an explanation that made it make sense I'd consider it, but he doesn't, his explanation is pretty weak imo, and not at all insightful.

It's not that what Kelsi3r did is inherently scummy, it's that the way he went about it doesn't make sense.

No worries i was just asking stuff to see if you would change your opinion on something that hasnt changed, as not much is happening here.

Having four town reads is not bad, i have less tbh. I dont have a REAL suspect tbh, atm i dont need to have...

Is it scummy for him? I dont know. Has he been trying to push a lynch (implying he has a strong suspect)? Does he have to do something? I dont know. I dont really find it alignment indicative.

It might be alignment indicative though, that he had no idea what's going on and when i told him to read, he apparentyl read your big post in like 5 minutes.
I guess I don't really feel like arguing about this but I'm confused, I think the points against Kelsi3r are obvious ans strong and I'm confused why you (and a lot of others) don't agree. It's totally understandable for people to not have strong suspects, but that only is okay if they (1) are looking for suspects or (2) aren't trying at all. Kelsi3r falls into neither category. He's been present and active enough that he's clearly trying, but he has been very content to not have any suspects and hasn't shown any desire to change that.

And his one post probably about 30 minutes ago doesn't change that because these points were valid a while before that post. Plus his post isn't very compelling.

Trfel is really worrying me. On the surface is very pro town, but also playing in a clearly different way to his prior games. I don’t really like his scum reads at all. I don’t level as if he is being that proactive in getting kelsier lynched, even though he apparently strongly suspects him.

And I find his reasoning for his scumreads much weaker than his other posts. I agree with a lot of his analysis but not when it comes to finding mafia…

I think his Smurf hunting made more sense logically than his scum reads which bothers me.

I wouldn’t lynch today, but if there is an active mafia hiding it’s this guy.

Scott just looks bad to me, completely forgettable, aside from his question that has already been analysed I couldn’t tell you why exactly. His scum hunting just comes across as manufactured,

Won’t lynch Marv today.

Rso has felt town by vibe.

Vivax I think is not consistently giving me good reasons to town read him

Rayn is being Rayn. Pretty much null.

Mocsta: looked better disengaging than when he was trying to do stuff. Don’t know what that means.

Kelsier: anyone with a strong opinion here is sus. Very null.

Rest need to post more or post more meaningful stuff.
I guess I dunno what more I can do with Kelsi3r, people aren't super interested in lynching him, it is what it is. I mean I could definitely be wrong. But if he is mafia and gets through this it's not due to my lack of trying. I guess if he is town and doesn't change anything and survives that's also not due to my lack of trying But you get my point.

Is your "won't lynch marvellosity" thing a town read thing or a waiting thing?

It’s a “bad idea to try and lynch Marv day one thing” when he is playing the game and seems to be enjoying things.
Fair, I understand that view. Not sure if I agree but I at least get it.

I would definitely be very sad to lynch him, like I said, he's the funniest player so far. That's a pretty big motivator.
People seem to have strong opinions on sandroba and Vivax and I'm just not seeing it right now. (same with Oatsmaster but that's on me for being bad so I expect this, it doesn't worry me yet)

Can anyone post or point me to a reasonable explanation of reading sandroba or Vivax?

Talk to me marvellosity, I'm pretty sure raynpelikoneet and I are seeing the same thing.

Unless we aren't, in which I guess I'm just really stupid. But still talk to me, because I still have an issue with your post. Just, you know, talk to raynpelikoneet too I guess.

Sandros catchup posting resonated with me. He seemed to be just comfortable putting things out there.

Vivax im not sure anyone should how anyone could call him town right now.

He looked ok initially. Recently pretty meh.
I agree about Vivax, he feels decidedly meh to me.

Can I ask more about sandroba? Are you referring to the posts 2 hours ago, or 4? Because reading over both, I don't actually feel like he is doing much, just kinda asking questions. This isn't bad per se, but it doesn't really give me any reason to townread him? He hasn't had a ton of meaningful thoughts in a while imo.

Okay. Here it is.

To be frank I had no idea where in the thread rsouls last post went to. I just clicked her filter because someone (??) mentioned her and I looked and didn’t see much. If the context of the thread is that she shouldn’t have said anything, I am more than happy to stand corrected.

I mean, I assume there was a reason she was in my null pile when I made the list
I mean I guess it depends on your standards for post quality by mid page 8. To me, there wasn't a ton worth deeply analyzing, just the scott31337 thing and maybe a small raynpelikoneet thing if you care about that.

Best read so dar.

Based on your well known excellent read of her, as you yourself mentioned?

Also based on rsoultins filter at the time I don’t see how you can disagree with what I said
The argument isn't really about rsoultin's filter, it's that rsoultin's last post at the time in question was about halfway down page 8 of the thread.

I don't understand what you are expecting her, or anyone for that matter, to say, at that point in the thread when there is so little actual information to work with?

Okay. Here it is.

To be frank I had no idea where in the thread rsouls last post went to. I just clicked her filter because someone (??) mentioned her and I looked and didn’t see much. If the context of the thread is that she shouldn’t have said anything, I am more than happy to stand corrected.

I mean, I assume there was a reason she was in my null pile when I made the list
I mean I guess it depends on your standards for post quality by mid page 8. To me, there wasn't a ton worth deeply analyzing, just the scott31337 thing and maybe a small raynpelikoneet thing if you care about that.

You misunderstood what I said truffle
I don't think I did? But maybe I'm just stupid. Regardless I don't think it's important.

I mean maybe me being stupid is important in the negative sense, but that's a bit harder to fix.

Regardless I'm happy to let this drop for now and let you do your thing.

Trfel is really worrying me. On the surface is very pro town, but also playing in a clearly different way to his prior games. I don’t really like his scum reads at all. I don’t level as if he is being that proactive in getting kelsier lynched, even though he apparently strongly suspects him.

And I find his reasoning for his scumreads much weaker than his other posts. I agree with a lot of his analysis but not when it comes to finding mafia…

I think his Smurf hunting made more sense logically than his scum reads which bothers me.

I wouldn’t lynch today, but if there is an active mafia hiding it’s this guy.

Scott just looks bad to me, completely forgettable, aside from his question that has already been analysed I couldn’t tell you why exactly. His scum hunting just comes across as manufactured,

Won’t lynch Marv today.

Rso has felt town by vibe.

Vivax I think is not consistently giving me good reasons to town read him

Rayn is being Rayn. Pretty much null.

Mocsta: looked better disengaging than when he was trying to do stuff. Don’t know what that means.

Kelsier: anyone with a strong opinion here is sus. Very null.

Rest need to post more or post more meaningful stuff.
I guess I dunno what more I can do with Kelsi3r, people aren't super interested in lynching him, it is what it is. I mean I could definitely be wrong. But if he is mafia and gets through this it's not due to my lack of trying. I guess if he is town and doesn't change anything and survives that's also not due to my lack of trying But you get my point.

Is your "won't lynch marvellosity" thing a town read thing or a waiting thing?


It’s a “bad idea to try and lynch Marv day one thing” when he is playing the game and seems to be enjoying things.
Fair, I understand that view. Not sure if I agree but I at least get it.

I would definitely be very sad to lynch him, like I said, he's the funniest player so far. That's a pretty big motivator.
People seem to have strong opinions on sandroba and Vivax and I'm just not seeing it right now. (same with Oatsmaster but that's on me for being bad so I expect this, it doesn't worry me yet)

Can anyone post or point me to a reasonable explanation of reading sandroba or Vivax?


Sandros catchup posting resonated with me. He seemed to be just comfortable putting things out there.

Vivax im not sure anyone should how anyone could call him town right now.

He looked ok initially. Recently pretty meh.
I agree about Vivax, he feels decidedly meh to me.

Can I ask more about sandroba? Are you referring to the posts 2 hours ago, or 4? Because reading over both, I don't actually feel like he is doing much, just kinda asking questions. This isn't bad per se, but it doesn't really give me any reason to townread him? He hasn't had a ton of meaningful thoughts in a while imo.



I’m talking about his catchup and entry into the thread.

If you don’t think it’s bad what’s the issue. Sandro will look townie if he is town.
I don't see a ton wrong with what sandroba has posted tbh, it's more that I think he's capable of more? I was just trying to understand since it felt like a lot of people were having him as a top scumread and I am not seeing that super easily.

? Vivax just randomly calling posts town you think is good?
Also him bring afraid to post is good? Also him not constantly seeing shadows?
What do you mean by seeing shadows? Is that the same as being afraid to post, or something different?

Do you not expect Vivax to randomly call some things town if he is town?

What do you mean by seeing shadows? Is that the same as being afraid to post, or something different?

Do you not expect Vivax to randomly call some things town if he is town?

Bottom point is bad play as mafia attempting to look random and post random unsubstantiated things. You’ve played with vivax before, you know how he gets seeing shadows if he’s town.
I guess you're describing Vivax's tinfoily-ness?

I mean yeah, posting an unsubstantiated townread isn't the most compelling, but to be honest I thought it was common for people to have little/no explanation for early townreads?

Like I don't see anything amazing in Vivax's filter, it's kinda meh imo. I do like that he commented on AlphaZero dropping his scumread on scott31337 (I don't agree that this is what AlphaZero did, but I think it's reasonable for Vivax to think and believe this and I think it shows that he's paying attention, even if imo he got it wrong). I don't really understand how he can townread marvellosity so easily, and imo he could definitely have more quality/content. I'm not seeing much reason to lynch him though, his posting is a little underwhelming but not coming across as mafia motivated to me.

By all means do your thing, if you have more specific things I should look at I'm happy to take a look at them and I definitely could be missing stuff. I'm just not seeing it at a glance.

It's just an impression I got, I could absolutely be wrong. Maybe it was just rsoultin being really vocal. Don't really care enough to check.

Hi
On plane about to take off.
I'm surprised by quant of posts and even more so that peoples essence is bringing back such strong memories. Pretty cool.

Have skim read. Trfel stood out to me as sentiment over a few posts felt forced / overly processed%. Not sure if that's his meta though. Certainly not a scum claim. Also felt a little similar with rsoultin.

Specifically, please?

I retracted later

No, you said he improved. So the original posts must remain. What were they?

*coughs*

Twas reading his filter

Nothing comes to mind in the same way which aligns with my retraction to be fair. I suspect it was related to his flow in the early game. I found it disjointed when read as a thread.

Rsoultin, I understand what you're saying about sandroba, but that strikes me more as reasons to not townread him than as reasons to scumread him? What am I missing?

Not really sure what to say.

I don't know what to think of scott31337, he looks suspicious but I feel like I've mislynched him a million times and I'm not sure if this game is any different I was trying to mess with him to change something and let me get a read on him but it didn't really work. Maybe I should see if the discrepancies in his posts are mafia motivated? I guess that makes sense?

I don't think the early thing about masons/whisperers/whatever had much mafia motivation. It's clumsy, but honestly it strikes me more as clumsy than scummy.

I actually kinda liked scott31337's post on AlphaZero. Not that I agree with it, but I think it's a reasonable perspective for scott31337 to have as town? I don't know why he would do this as mafia, I guess I doubt he'd have the confidence? I could definitely be wrong, but like, scott31337 brought up an original argument. That's pretty neat. Even if it's (imo) a bad argument, I'm still pleasantly surprised

So yeah, I kinda don't want to lynch scott31337. Could absolutely be wrong, it's far from the worst lynch ever, but I don't find the arguments super compelling given the context.
Don't really want to lynch sandroba either unless something changes, either in his play or in my read. His play hasn't been super inspiring or anything imo, but I don't think that makes him mafia. Maybe if we keep waiting and this doesn't change I could start to see it but we haven't even been playing for 24 hours, I don't think it's reasonable to hold him to super high standards at this time. If he did something scummy that'd be different, but a lack of super towny stuff doesn't make him mafia imo.
I guess I'll just wait and hope that either people re-evaluate Kelsi3r or I'm wrong (which is pretty likely tbh, I have no idea how to find mafia on day 1 especially, my reads tend to be more accurate when flipped upside down). So maybe it's a good thing that no one agrees XD

Or clumsy in a scummy way
Theoretically yes, but that's not how I read it.

I guess I don't put much weight in the idea that scum say little things to look like they're present without actually doing anything. Or rather, I think town ends up with similar posts pretty often, especially at the start of the game. It's just hard for me to say with any confidence that this is a scum trait. Maybe for strong town players it could be scummy, but I see this from less confident town players all the time.

I also don't think that the way scott31337 posted came from a mafia motivated mindset. Like, why would scott31337 be more inclined to make that series of posts as mafia than as town? I guess I just don't get it. Don't misunderstand, I don't think scott31337's posts make any sense, but I don't think they make sense in a mafia way, more just a general illogical way.
