I've had a pretty decent townread on MZ for most of the game. Yes it's possible it's a fake nuke and MZ is scum (I find this a little unlikely) but then if the nuke IS fake we find out when I redirect it and it doesn't hit.

Either way I'm thinking of redirecting to NG.


That's basically all he said on the matter before sending in the redirect.

@Xata: I'll try to be more decisive in the future, I feel that's just how I speak though.

I know Rayn or someone asked for reads on WoS and MZ but its really late so I'll do it when I wake up.


I think you missed WOS's explanation. Aren't you reading the thread? Obviously scum.

While I appreciate the thought it may be better to save your power until later in the game.

Although now that you've claimed you'll probably get killed tonight anyway -_-

I doubt it.

I still have a scummy read on Johnny, and I'll explain below. if I'm wrong, or not on the right path, please correct me. I'm going to write this out, and then grab dinner with a friend. I won't be able to reply for a few more hours.

I know I'm not very good at mafia. But what you need to understand is that NOTHING that I've done says scum over bad townie. I am a bad townie. I can see why I'm probably a good lynch for day 1. I can see why I'm being bandwagonned. It's because it's so easy for scum to tunnel bad townies.

If you can find something that I've done that screams scum over bad townie, go for my lynch (hint: there is none). I may be the best lynch even lacking that. But when I flip town (assuming I'm lynched), know that it was as much your fault as scum, townies, for following this bandwagon. Oh yeah, and WoS is the one who is trying to push it in a major way, more than anyone else.


So Johnny went through a lot of scrutiny at first, and posts this. He pretty much says "please don't lynch me, i'm town, i'm just bad."

I don't know much about how forum-based mafia works, but in live mafia this is very commonly scum. It's usually a last hope without role calling. "I know I'm bad, and I'm no use to anyone, but please let me live" It's simply not beneficial in any circumstance to state that you are bad at the game when you are trying to avoid a lynch.

Guys. I don't have much time left. I need to nuke someone to live. I'm getting a scummy read out of TanGeng. He's one I feel is most likely scum... So there you go.

##nuke TanGeng

I will not be able to change this.



Additionally, I am going to vote for Dandel Ion for now. Of the inactives, he seems most likely scum. I can change this in the morning if I feel like it, and I don't think a chez lynch is the best idea right now, and he seems to be gaining the most traction. I don't support that. So I'm voting for a new candidate which I think most people can agree on lynching on if it comes to it.


I find that many people are just saying "i think he's scummy." in this game. To be honest, it really annoys me as they are not giving any basis behind it. It's the whole conspiracy theorist bullshit that you see on forums all the time. "If you don't believe it, just do the research yourself". It's annoying, makes other people do pointless work, and overall not beneficial to town.

Just out of curiosity, Whoops what are you reasons for TanGeng over the other lurkers? I really like your pick, I'm just curious in the specific.

I'm not going to go over every reason, but he follows the bandwagon a TON and his analysis isn't really insightful or unique at all. He criticizes over weak points and flip flops. Just look at his posts...I can't see a townie typing what he's typing/voting at ALL. None of it makes sense as a townie for me. I can only see scum typing what is written, if that makes sense? There's specifics for each individual post but that sort of is a general overview. If you want I could go over every single post but since you also think he's scum I don't think it's necessary


So he actually does respond, and is being quite hypocritical in his basis. His posts have not been beneficial as once again, he refuses to give any real reason. Once again, "i could really explain to you, but i don't want to, and I shouldn't have to. you can either believe me or do your own research" It's a simple way to make someone who doesn't want to do a lot of work, believe you, by believing so hardcore in what you are saying, without actually saying anything. It's pretty much fluff in this post "i won't give any real reasoning, but you should trust me. his posts make no sense" this is just nonsense.

He explained more after that. Whatever, I gave my blessing for that action so I have zero right to criticize I really. I'm pretty sure Meapak is town too so I doubt it was even a mistake.

Good to see you posting, but I think what you explained is more indicative of bad (town) play rather than necessarily scummy play. IMO all that can be explained by bad play rather than being scum; there's nothing that points to being scum being the more obvious explanation. I agree though that he needs to explain more and complain less.

LOL I just don't understand rayn at this point. Why would be seriously lie like that and then BASE HIS TOWNREAD OF MEAPAK ON HIS OWN LIE??? It's just 100% ridiculous. Sigh...

Maybe this is some elaborate ploy to lure out scum or something... That might be easier to understand than him really launching it as either scum or town.

Rays first post after the launch. If there is no downside for claiming a silent nuke why wouldn't you claim it right then? The bolded is especially odd. If you launched the nuke, why would it pop in to your mind that scum are trying to frame you by nuking your scumread who is actually town?



Is it possible that there is a required role where you must claim unclaimed nukes?

If not, then maybe he just wanted to stir up some action.

In either case, I am really interested in why WoS has a town read on Maepak.

I still have a scummy read on Johnny, and I'll explain below. if I'm wrong, or not on the right path, please correct me. I'm going to write this out, and then grab dinner with a friend. I won't be able to reply for a few more hours.

I know I'm not very good at mafia. But what you need to understand is that NOTHING that I've done says scum over bad townie. I am a bad townie. I can see why I'm probably a good lynch for day 1. I can see why I'm being bandwagonned. It's because it's so easy for scum to tunnel bad townies.

If you can find something that I've done that screams scum over bad townie, go for my lynch (hint: there is none). I may be the best lynch even lacking that. But when I flip town (assuming I'm lynched), know that it was as much your fault as scum, townies, for following this bandwagon. Oh yeah, and WoS is the one who is trying to push it in a major way, more than anyone else.


So Johnny went through a lot of scrutiny at first, and posts this. He pretty much says "please don't lynch me, i'm town, i'm just bad."

I don't know much about how forum-based mafia works, but in live mafia this is very commonly scum. It's usually a last hope without role calling. "I know I'm bad, and I'm no use to anyone, but please let me live" It's simply not beneficial in any circumstance to state that you are bad at the game when you are trying to avoid a lynch.

Guys. I don't have much time left. I need to nuke someone to live. I'm getting a scummy read out of TanGeng. He's one I feel is most likely scum... So there you go.

##nuke TanGeng

I will not be able to change this.



Additionally, I am going to vote for Dandel Ion for now. Of the inactives, he seems most likely scum. I can change this in the morning if I feel like it, and I don't think a chez lynch is the best idea right now, and he seems to be gaining the most traction. I don't support that. So I'm voting for a new candidate which I think most people can agree on lynching on if it comes to it.


I find that many people are just saying "i think he's scummy." in this game. To be honest, it really annoys me as they are not giving any basis behind it. It's the whole conspiracy theorist bullshit that you see on forums all the time. "If you don't believe it, just do the research yourself". It's annoying, makes other people do pointless work, and overall not beneficial to town.

I'm not going to go over every reason, but he follows the bandwagon a TON and his analysis isn't really insightful or unique at all. He criticizes over weak points and flip flops. Just look at his posts...I can't see a townie typing what he's typing/voting at ALL. None of it makes sense as a townie for me. I can only see scum typing what is written, if that makes sense? There's specifics for each individual post but that sort of is a general overview. If you want I could go over every single post but since you also think he's scum I don't think it's necessary


So he actually does respond, and is being quite hypocritical in his basis. His posts have not been beneficial as once again, he refuses to give any real reason. Once again, "i could really explain to you, but i don't want to, and I shouldn't have to. you can either believe me or do your own research" It's a simple way to make someone who doesn't want to do a lot of work, believe you, by believing so hardcore in what you are saying, without actually saying anything. It's pretty much fluff in this post "i won't give any real reasoning, but you should trust me. his posts make no sense" this is just nonsense.



Good to see you posting, but I think what you explained is more indicative of bad (town) play rather than necessarily scummy play. IMO all that can be explained by bad play rather than being scum; there's nothing that points to being scum being the more obvious explanation. I agree though that he needs to explain more and complain less.


In either case, either he is a bad town, or scum, why did everyone move away from lynching him? I'm under the impression from previous live games that bad town is bad for town...

In other news, I read through the filters of Stutters695 and ghost_403. Not that it took long - they're both 100% useless and without even a shred of scumhunting. These two posts amount to their complete contributions so far:

Okay, lynching ON is better than lynching Chezinu or Dandel Ion at this point. Dandel Ion is more likely town than scum and we can wait more on Chezinu and his madness.

Second.

Sorry for activity at the moment, life went nuts. Be here all day tomorrow.

Yep.... These almost feel too scummy to be scum. But either they are anti-town town or anti-town scum, and I want them dead in both cases.

It depends. johnnywup has at least put in some effort, although he hasn't shown convincing play. I'm willing to give him some more time.

CA, there are different kinds of bad town. On the other hand you have Stutters695 and ghost_403 who passively work against town. Then you have johnnywup whose play has just been sub-optimal.

The first two I want to get rid of even if they're truly town, the latter not so much.
