No.

Read filters and explain why you are voting one over the other.

There are still more then 10 hours to lynch.

I'm still pretty keen on a Nova_Terra lynch.

Look at his filter since a few of us called him out at about the same time yesterday. It's all sarcastic one-liners or posts that say so little I can't even find one worth quoting and putting here.

He said he hasn't had time to make a case but he has had time to post about 15 times without saying anything.

Since I called him out on abandoning Mementoss for what was a non-case on Kenpachi, he tells us he still thinks Mementoss is scummy but it didn't seem to get much support - did he push it? no. While he's at it, he also decides to point fingers at me and also blubbdavid, with a maximum of one sentence to back either up.

It seems he is active, but unwilling to build or push any sort of case, instead preferring spam and fingerpointing all round. Still looks like scum.

Just had a good read of DYH's case on blubbdavid.

If this were a case on Mementoss or layabout (as examples) I'd be switching my vote now. My question though - are you sure it's not just because blubbdavid is bad? The impression, even from his pregame post

On May 02 2012 21:24 blubbdavid wrote:
Was about time. Watch out scum, because I will survive till the last day because I don't contribute much even though I am town sigh


is that he doesn't know what he's doing and doesn't think properly. So there are a lot of DYH's case where he's pointing at blubb making terrible connections, or talking about lynching for information, etc. which could be explained away as terrible town.

For reference, in LIII I resisted the lynch of Ottoxlol, a superscummy player, for 2 days on day 2 and day 3 because I thought he was just bad town, and that was in the end proven correct.

Which is why in this circumstance I want to be convinced blubb is actually scummyscumscum and not just bad townie.

I'd like to apologise if I hurt town by my absence. Unlimited booze at a medieval banquet whilst dressed in cardboard armor and charging up London Underground escalators was an amazing a very bad idea (for my liver/grey matter/toilet)...

So I've read the thread, and though I find the arguments against Laya the most convincing inI think at this point we should lynch into innactives/lurkers/low content posters. I realise I'm putting myself in the firing line but hear me out. Scum have just lost 2 players for free, as has been pointed out previously its gonna take a lot of mislynches for scum to be able to influence town discussion in any meaningful way, this means IMO the best thing for scum to do is to sit back and hope for town chaos and OMGUS to divide town and cause the most mislynching to happen. As such I think its far more likely for us to hit scum by lynching into that pool of players then even relying on evidence that relies on quite a bit of WIFOM in the case of Laya.

As such those with posts least in both content and number (apart from me), Ghost and Kenpachi seem to me to be the most guilty of the above. As Kenpachi seems to not want to play (and I don't buy the 'scum think I'm scum' logic as that only works if you're confirmed town) I will:

If blubbdavid Nova_Terra and Paqman are the remaining scum then kenpachi has got all of them.

But my scum team is along the lines of Blubbdavid, johnnywub + _______

Blubbdaivd:
He supported BM as a "good lynch candidate" for being a "scummy lurker". He expressed a willingness to swap to BM. But he did not. He was trying to support a BM lynch without commiting to it himself.

The key thing here is that he is holding off of voting for BM in favor of grush.

I have a suspicion:
What if BM is scum, but doesn't want to play/ doesn't have time, so he sacrifices himself for the other scum?

After supporting a BM lynch he then casts suspicion on everybody voting for BM whilst still calling BM scum.
What is strange about this is that he supposedly thinks that scum would sacrifice a team member because he might not have time, but he later goes on to call grush town for calling out the two mafia players who were modkilled because they did not have time to play.


After supporting a BM lynch he does not in fact follow it with a vote, why? Because he thinks grush is scum.

Now you might be thinking that he should have reasons for this. I was. But when i looked, i found very few.

papapanda, unable to even graps that he has a bit more time than just one day, ready to sacrifice me although there are better options like grush.
Till now, I have have defended myself better than grush, but papanda is willing to forgive grush for his action because he could be a semi-lurker. Like SA pointed out, reading minds for others, especially at such an early stage of the game is scummy.

Palmar: his play here compared to Liar Game Mafia is opposite. In one game he is interested and active, here, well...
Two options:
1. He has no special role here and therefore immediately lost interest.
2. He is scum, scumming scum.

(Note: he is sheeping Kenpachi here, whereas in the other game he is playing king lol)

grush is without doubt the scummiest player here, putting up a strong (read:nonexistant) defense.

I assume we still have 24h+ for voting?

He tunnels grush relentlessly without backing it up. He acts as if he is mistaken in pushing grush and adresses grush as if he were town. But grush is where his vote ended up.

BM is a potent player and everyone knows that. I feel day 1 lynching a veteran is the worst thing you can do. If i were mafia, id put BM near the top of my priority list just because of his sheer experience.



He made his scum reads and calls out who he believes to be the remaining scum team. But he doesn't push for their lynch or pressure them or anything at all. As of now I think Kenpachi is a better option than NT.

##Vote Kenpachi

I'm hoping I'll make it back before the deadline but I'm not too sure.

was the best lynch to support?

Why dont you have a look through here and tell me what you learn about kenpachi's play?

Then address the cases on the people that should get lynched: Blubbdavid or Nova_Terra or might get mislynched: layabout.

Cause the Kenpachi case is so much better. Two policy lynches in a row, really? Is this how we are going to play town. Reading the recent filter, and how layabout has been responding and contributing I am not sure if he is scum or not, I will not be voting him today. Why vote Kenpachi when he is getting replaced...? Anyone voting on him, take the time to look into the cases, vote the best one and explain it. A vote on kenpachi is a cop out to allow yourself to lurk and not contribute.

I will be voting either NT or Blubb, I will switch to make the other get lynched if needed. I think both are good lynches that have good chance to flip scum. DYH presented a good case on blubb, but as other pointed out, I am not sure if it is just bad town play or not, im leaning towards scum. In nova_terras case I know it isn't bad town, cause I have seen his town play a lot, and although he may not be right, he puts in a lot of effort. He has put in 0 effort this game. If he is town, he is being retarded.

For now I will leave my vote on NT.

-Also stop spamming up the thread, im glad SA un buried DYH good case against blubb.

But Kenpachi has been more "active" than froggnoddy, Eiii, l10f, ghost_403 johnnywub, grush, mementoss, sinensis and papaganda.

BM is a potent player and everyone knows that. I feel day 1 lynching a veteran is the worst thing you can do. If i were mafia, id put BM near the top of my priority list just because of his sheer experience.



He made his scum reads and calls out who he believes to be the remaining scum team. But he doesn't push for their lynch or pressure them or anything at all. As of now I think Kenpachi is a better option than NT.

##Vote Kenpachi

I'm hoping I'll make it back before the deadline but I'm not too sure.

was the best lynch to support?

Why dont you have a look through here and tell me what you learn about kenpachi's play?

Then address the cases on the people that should get lynched: Blubbdavid or Nova_Terra or might get mislynched: layabout.


Ok, so... are you trying to show me that because he plays like this both as town and scum we should excuse untowny behaviour? I don't like that as an argument as untowny behaviour should always be punished. That being said I understand that perhaps this would be a better job for any vigs we have left. It just seems unlikely unless we do unless we have a pyro. I will keep reading through threads and see if anything convinces me. As I said, other than what I think about lynching into inactives, NT's weird post (see above post) and your hard defence on Katina seem like the strongest indications of scumminess imo.

It was more of an "inactivity from a player that's always inactive is meaningless". There is also some merit to the notion that scum will try to lynch Kenpachi.

Ok, you might have a point. Will look harder at thread, I just found the cases so far unconvincing (but I guess thats to be expected at this point in the game), and as town is so far ahead I reasoned that policy lynches might not be so bad.

My bad, just missunderstood read Kurumi's explanatory post regarding Pyros and assumed that the explanation was for both alignment's roles.

Ok, I've finally read through everyone's filtre and read N1/D2 activity to give me a sense of what (up to now I had just skimread the thread). And I have come to the following conclusions:

1. I retract my point about Layabout's defence on Katina as being one of the most conclusive points... that was just plain bad reasoning and has been talked about and refuted enough, apologies.

2. Though I am not 100% convinced about people's (laya and mem) defence of Kenpachi, It doesn't seem likely I am gonna convince anyone so I will try and find other people I think are most likely to be scum.

2. This is the best post in the whole thread and I am inclined to agree with it, specifically as blubb has taken his sweet time trying to respond.

1. Somethingawesome, still think I am not scum?
2. How about you lynch me, or are you too cautious because it could reveal your whole scumplan? I need action, not words. 3. You are buddying up with layabout instead of scumhunting. Cast your vote on the one you think is the most scummy player.

You say that I know layabout's alignment (mind reading), BUT: Is my concern illegitimate? You are circling around the actual matter: Why did layabout push BM so hard? Come on, tell me.

4. Furthermore: BM was a lurker, and yes, a lynch on him wouldn't have been out-of-normal, but the intensity with which layabout has pushed BM surprised me.
And I have been pushing on lay since I saw that he wanted to policy lynch BM although he vowed not to policy lynch.


about Palm:

Palmar: his play here compared to Liar Game Mafia is opposite. In one game he is interested and active, here, well...
Two options:
1. He has no special role here and therefore immediately lost interest.
2. He is scum, scumming scum.


Seems like the first option was true.

grush: I may have sheeped on this vote, I admit
but I didn't sheep with the vote of layabout

I want to see some action of you, SA.


1. This is awkwardly phrased considering SA had just said that he thinks blubb is scum.

2. Daring SA to try and lynch you? Where is this coming from? For someone who has played the "my bad, don't hold it against me" card as well as a "I give up" defense this is extremely out of character and scummy. Not only that, he states his read that SA is scum because SA doesn't want to vote for him yet which immediately makes his next statement absurd.

3. This is the part that really got me wanting to lynch blubb. Let us think about this ridiculous scenario that blubb has put forth between SA and layabout. Supposedly at this point blubb believes both SA and layabout to be scum, or at the very least highly suspicious. So in what world does it make sense that one scum(SA) is going to 'buddy' ANOTHER SCUM(laya), another scum who just happens to be under a fair bit of scrutiny atm. Even forgetting the scrutiny part it doesn't make sense. In blubb's attempt to defend against SA's claim that blubb seemed to know people's roles he slips again and gives us this buddying scenario. The only way that it can possibly make sense is if blubb KNOWS that layabout is town.

4. Didn't sheep the vote of layabout, true, but then there is this:

I am also willing to lynch BM if there's no majority on grush.
But: What even more important is than lynching scum D1is obtaining information. A BM lynch wouldn't us give much info, assuming he is scum.
I still want to see panda's take on grush before I set my vote in stone.

And lol, there's no way BM is going to be modkilled.

Seriously, obtaining information is more important than lynching scum D1 according to blubb. This is the reasoning he uses to say that BM was a bad lynch. This is just so incredibly wrong from a town POV. Lynch a lurker scum d1 you get all the info of the people fighting/pushing the lynch + the chance to get rid of a scum power + YOU JUST KILLED SCUM, CMON.

I think it is condemning, scum over-reacts to things like that (at least i think, ive never actually played scum). Of course laya didn't know kat would be modkilled, which is why it is condemning. If we didn't know kat's flip, it wouldn't be bad for either of them. It's just a townie pushing his reads on another person he thinks is townie, right? Since kat flipped, no. I don't know, the flip makes me think laya is more scummy.

It took scum by surprise that Kat was modkilled.


blubb quotes JW's good post on laya's behavior and then does what? Reinforce a point(s) he liked? no. Expand or provide further analysis? no. What we get is this statement, "It took scum by surprise that Kat was modkilled." What purpose does this serve? This statement isn't, "I also think it took scum by surprise that Kat was modkilled." or "If it took scum by surprise that Kat was modkilled then...". I think that the lack of relevance paired with the certainty on something that shouldn't have been able to go past speculation makes this likely to be a scumslip.

Still, I would be interested in papapanda's opinion.
And katina, do some scumhunting. What is your opinion on grush?

blubb calls out Katina which normally would mean that blubb would have taken note of Katina's past posts as well as be waiting for a response to this call out. Then we get this:

I have to look into katina yet.

This is after I made my case and slOosh had switched his vote. A consistent blubb would already have been up to date on Katina and this comment would have been either been accepting, refuting, or critiquing my case instead of playing at being ignorant.
