I don't see what Otoshi has done enough to warrant so much suspicion. 1) He first said he wanted no lynch then said would agree with a random lynch. Flip-flopping, but not a major case. 2) He comments on track's bold first post and sends a few one-liners. Suspicious? Sure. Derailing the discussion? It may have been filler, but not annoying, distracting filler, so no. 3) His tell on his 4th post. OK, I will admit this looks pretty damn suspicious, but idk, may just have been phrasing. If anything, this shows that Trackdoor is really on the ball (so far as the first day goes, he's the only one here who looks slightly trustworthy). 4) The rest of his posts he defends himself from Mementos. He doesn't put much effort into his posts, and doesn't post much. This is scumtelling, but I'm not convinced its enough. I'm sticking with a ##Vote: No Lynch. There's already 6 votes on him and I'm not convinced enough to hammer.

First, im glad to see such an informed post, it seems as if you were here the whole time. Second, Im happy you to read into the current suspect for yourself, OtoshmonoU and not just vote because its happening. But I have one question regarding this nolynch, can you provide your reasoning why a no lynch would be better than being 100% on OtoshmonoU and getting some information out of it? Even if you don't nessecarily think he is scum, you seem to see why other people do, and I think a no lynch is a fairly weak first day. What is your opinion on this and how can it benefit the town rather than the lynch at hand? Third, I appreciate the read on maverick, as it is the first read on him other than the mementoss/maverick mafia team conspiracy. Though I am not convinced he is scum, and that all this behaviour is scummy, it is definitily worth looking at and thinking about. The only information we'll gain from Otosh is if he's town or not. Also (and more importantly), if he turns out to be town, what then? Do we accuse you for starting the finger pointing at him? Do we accuse the people who went in with you? What about everyone else who joined the bandwagon? No, it would be dismissed as a mistake given that it was his own damn fault for being lynched. So, nothing gained aside from knowing he's town or not. One big bandwagon and an easy target. Tomorrow, though, we might have a cop report and possible a vigilante shooting. I'll be rereading what led up to his accusations, see if anyone sticks out. | ||

1) If Otoshi ends up being mafia, there may be mafia among Pablols, Tiystus and Beorn. Then again, they may just have been townies who just forgot about the voting, thought the case was weak (like me) or refused to bandwagon. 2) If Otoshi ends up being town, we can be almost 100% sure Pablols, Tiystus, and Beorn are also town. Then again, they may have been mafia who just forgot about the voting or the mafia among them decided to not vote for Otoshi in order to build trust with the town. Still, I find both these alternatives very unlikely because a) being mafia (or a town PR, for that matter) is more exiting, so if you're gonna lurk you're gonna do it on purpose and sure as hell you aren't gonna miss a mandatory vote, risking a modkill and b) the mafia avoiding a free lynching to build up town cred is a weak idea at this point of the game. My suggestion for the detective (if we have one) is to investigate this night: 1) Otoshi, 2) Beorn (maybe, one of the other lurkers) or 3) Maverick, who still sounds suspicious to me. Next night you can claim your role even if he's inno unless, of course, our doc (if we have one) gets killed in the night. My suggestion for the vigilante (if we have one) is refrain from shooting Otoshi until next night. You may want to shoot Beorn or one of the other lurkers (sufficiency comes to mind), but there's a good chance you'll be hitting a bad townie, which is bad but not as horrible as shooting someone who is active. Anyone else would be risky imho. As for Maverick's post: + Show Spoiler + On March 03 2012 13:25 Maverick32x wrote: That is one way of looking at it.. This is my thought process though- Lets say all 3 mafia players are being active at that point in the game. And one of them says "lets lynch the lurkers". Clearly the 3 mafia are aware that they aren't even being considered at this point as potential suspects.... so wouldn't they be okay with this idea? Especially with the amount of low posts at the time- This idea just seems bad. I wonder if someone who has actual contributed and agreed and disagreed with people would be better.. if we got a hit on them, it would be easy to follow them around to other people. As opposed to if we hit a lurker.. okay. we got a mafia.... but now what? And if we got a townie.. we actually accomplished nothing at all. This is obviously my view on this generalized idea- which makes me a suspect.. how? The point is that lurking is a great strategy for the mafia and we have to keep it from being so. When lurking the mafia doesn't have to expose themselves, have the same voting rights as everyone else and don't leave a trail we can follow later. Townies shouldn't lurk and townies who do shouldn't be tolerated because they give a shield behind which the lurking mafia can stay safe. + Show Spoiler + Yep, I actually acknowledged that as well... And I've accused multiple people at this point to stir up conversations in preparation of the vote. I'm not calling attention to you sound/not sounding "bloodthirsty". I'm calling out your defensiveness about a simple word choice that no one was making a reference to (except for memetoss in one post) + Show Spoiler + I don't have any other way to possibly convey the information that is occurring... You come off extremely arrogant in all of these points with an attitude of "I know more than you" and its really off putting to me. This of course has no indication of town/scum- just something that makes it hard to agree with you. Focus on your reads/topic at hand, not on summarizing who said what about whom and who dissagreed/agreed with whom over what. If we had everyone's opinion about everyone that would be a whopping 121 opinions, in other words, worthless. Everyone here who is taking this slightly seriously probably has their own small word document/spreadsheet with everyone else's name on it. + Show Spoiler + As for the "Mementoss and Maverick" connection... That just doesn't add up... we both are taking a logical approach and are active.. it just makes sense that the active people we be talking to each other.... Its good to see that our newest addition is involved however, so we will see what happens... I agree that you're both probably not together. But one of you could be leading the other with good reads on bad townies instead of good reads on mafia. That sorta thing can happen on day 1 when the only thing people can do is point fingers at each other. | ||

I believe that if there's a better case for lynching him, we can always do it tommorow, or can have the detective check him for us (which I had hoped he would this night, but apparently he didn't). I was honestly hoping our detective would have something to spurn the discussion today. Of course, there's an actual possibility that there is no detective in this game, but that would be a little strange. For now, as for the vote itself, I'm voting for our resident lurker Rainmaker. Beorn, who came out of the closet after transforming into blubbdavid, seems to be posting at least. | ||

But isn't consequent and votes for Rainmaker out of the blue.His alignment on depends what Oto will flip, as Mav said. Don't take my vote as inconsequential. Rain hasn't posted anything since day 1 even that was meh in terms of productiveness. Lurkers are prime suspects on my book, and Rain is the quietest of them all. | ||

This will leave the risk that scum coincidentally kills our DT, but I think it's better than hoping that we have a medic. Well I would think it would be weird not to have a medic in the game ... idk. Still, one thing I had forgotten is that there might be a mafia roleblocker, so it might really not be worth it for the detective to claim. Bah, idk any more. | ||

When Sufficiency posted that he wanted to lynch Beorn, I quickly agreed and threw my vote on him. This was done in order to pressure Beorn out of hiding. In the post I hint at exactly what I want him to do, and that's to "contribute and say who he feels is a good lynch candidate". I suspected him as scum so his response was going to give me a lot of information. I even make another post to put the pressure back on Beorn and get some information out of him here: My vote was not initially intended for Beorn, nor did I intend to keep it on him, because I didn't think he would get enough votes before the deadline. I'm changing my vote to Oto, who I originally intended on voting for. 1) Begins day 1 voting for blubbdavid, the biggest lurker at the time "just to bring him out of hiding" and, once there were 4 votes on Otoshi (thus a good chance of getting rid of him), he switches his vote "to who he originally intended"! In fact, he doesn't explain anywhere why he's voting for Otoshi, except for saying it was who he originally intended on voting for! + Show Spoiler + On March 04 2012 09:57 DimmuKlok wrote: My idea and Mementoss's idea are actually very different. His idea was to force everyone into coming up with 2 very detailed cases on 2 different people. There were lots of problems with this plan. One of which he states right after he tells everyone the plan: All town need to participate and the cases need to be damn good or they will get accused. This meant that the mafia simply didn't have to participate and all it took was one town player to not put in the effort. If you were going to participate you needed to put in a lot of effort, therefor not many people contributed and the idea died. Not surprising considering 4 people didn't even put in the effort to vote, and at least one was town. This idea has none of those problems. You can choose to benefit the town by making a more detailed post on your scum read, but you don't have to. What you do have to do is post. Don't, and we'll simply lynch you. I'm not going to lie, the major problem with this plan is that we can't lynch someone that we have a case on unless we are nearly 100% sure he is mafia. Simply because we need to have consequences for not participating, and that's getting lynched. Even that one problem is minor, though. A townie will not want to be lynched, therefor he will at least post. That will continue to narrow down the list of lurkers until you would have to be stupid not to accuse someone in order to not get lynched. If everyone is smart, everyone will post, and we can get new information out there and everyone participating. In the chance that we have 1-3 lurkers when it comes time to vote, we'll have to pick which we feel is the best to lynch. I don't see that happening though with how easy it is to keep yourself from getting lynched(Post a scum read). When and if there are no lurkers, we can go back to voting for who you want to lynch. 2) Night 1 and Day 2, besides once again not explaining his vote for Otoshi, his posts are either filler, or the discussion he had with Mementoss about lack of participation, which is not exactly what you would call "productive". But hey! At least he hedged his bets! + Show Spoiler + On March 06 2012 04:08 DimmuKlok wrote: Oto is either a useless towny or mafia, I'm voting for him.

+ Show Spoiler + On March 07 2012 03:03 DimmuKlok wrote: Why I called out Willz: Willz was the first person to vote for Oto. In this post he states clearly that he's completely ok with the current case on Oto and willing to lynch him. He even throws in a scapegoat for funzies(He's new). He then states here, as confusingly as possible, that he thinks lynching Oto would be a mislynch. Later in the post saying he's more ok with a Sufficiency lynch than Oto, because of Blubbdavids post. He's now sure that Oto is town and lynching him will give no information. I bolded it for importance. If Oto was mafia, obviously him getting lynched would give us plenty of information. All of these point of views are not incriminating yet, but important to keep in mind when you read this: As you say yourself, none of this is incriminating. What happened is that he thought there was a case against Otoshi then changed his mind, as I was hoping the rest of you would also. Saying he would gain "no information" is an obvious exageration, with which I agreed to in principle. It was not clear Otoshi was mafia, there would be little information gained from him being mafia and no point in killing him otherwise.

Then again, they may just have been townies who just forgot about the voting, thought the case was weak (like me) or refused to bandwagon. 2) If Otoshi ends up being town, we can be almost 100% sure Pablols, Tiystus, and Beorn are also town. Then again, they may have been mafia who just forgot about the voting or the mafia among them decided to not vote for Otoshi in order to build trust with the town. Still, I find both these alternatives very unlikely because a) being mafia (or a town PR, for that matter) is more exiting, so if you're gonna lurk you're gonna do it on purpose and sure as hell you aren't gonna miss a mandatory vote, risking a modkill and b) the mafia avoiding a free lynching to build up town cred is a weak idea at this point of the game. + Show Spoiler + On March 07 2012 03:03 DimmuKlok wrote: This is where he begins to try to prove his innocence, while still getting rid of Oto. When you read this post, it's made very clear to you that he thinks Oto is green. I'd go even further to say that he knows that he's green. But alas, "That being said, I will be willing to switch to the OtoshimonoU vote if people are dead set on it, and we need my vote. I will state for the record that I am against this, but if it's a choice between a no-lynch and OtoshimonoU then we have no choice, and can try and gain information from it." Yea, lets get that information out of him that you said there wasn't any of... This post was made immediately after. He has the inherent feeling that he needs to defend his choice without anyone accusing him. Remember, it's for the information. This post is the most telling. He tells everyone what he knew all along. Oto flipping green will not give information. He also knows that Oto is going to flip green, and that explains all the effort he put in to make sure that he would not be a suspect after his death. His last 3 posts were shortly before the lynch, and all pushed the same message. Oto being lynched was the perfect way for Willz to look innocent and to stay out of the light. It was too suspicious not to bring up. After thinking about it, a DT check on Willz wouldn't be too bad of an idea either. After he changed his mind, it's pretty clear he had the same opinion as me, that Otoshi would be a mislynch. The thing is, we dissagreed in that he thought a no-lynch would be worse than lynching a townie, a view that most of you seemed to agree on. The fact that you're trying to get someone else investigated instead of trying to rebuke my read on you is more telling to me than anything else. I have strong feelings on you and probably Rain being two of our three scums. If we have a DT, it should be pretty clear who he needs to check up on. Whichever one of you two look closer to getting lynched on day 3 already has my vote. + Show Spoiler + On March 07 2012 02:52 trackd00r wrote: Well, that lynch didn't go good. I agree with blubb, investigating Rain would be pretty much a waste. Instead, I suggest that the vigilante (if there's one) should consider shooting him. But as he might be mod killed any now, I don't know if is better to wait for a replacement before taking any further actions. Anyways, we can't ignore him completely, since there is a very good chance that he turns scum, specially now that Oto flipped town. I have some suspicions against gunman103. Will post analysis shortly. Pablols is lurking pretty hard. If we had a vigilante, there would probably have been already two deaths in one night. That or he's choosing to not shoot anyone or our medic is a miracle worker. Also, I would appreciate to hear what you say on gunman. I feel Rain and Dimmu are strongly implicated as mafia and he would fit the picture well as the third mafia (though currently I'm reading him as null, at least without taking Rain and Dimmu into account). I had suspicion on Maverick, but the way he seemed emotionally invested in taking down Otoshi took him a bit off my radar. | ||

I see a lot of flipflopping in willz's posts, and I do see where Dim is coming from with his reasoning. I don't think that is completely fabricated.... Also I'll take a moment to look through Dim's filter.... His posts are pretty 'pro-town'... He actively defended Mementoss (who was town), and is really anti-lurker in his posts. Also he matches your suspicion on Rainmaker.... How do we start to look at a lurker such as Rainmaker to try to figure out what our next steps are? Is this dependent on a DT? If we start to look at lurkers as our next target, Rainmaker is the only one that really fits that role the best... As for being suspicous of me- I was really stubborn with that Oto lynch, and I regret that. I tunnel-visioned my way into a town lynch and I'm not pleased with that....

When Sufficiency posted that he wanted to lynch Beorn, I quickly agreed and threw my vote on him. This was done in order to pressure Beorn out of hiding. In the post I hint at exactly what I want him to do, and that's to "contribute and say who he feels is a good lynch candidate". I suspected him as scum so his response was going to give me a lot of information. I even make another post to put the pressure back on Beorn and get some information out of him here: My vote was not initially intended for Beorn, nor did I intend to keep it on him, because I didn't think he would get enough votes before the deadline. I'm changing my vote to Oto, who I originally intended on voting for. 1) Begins day 1 voting for blubbdavid, the biggest lurker at the time "just to bring him out of hiding" and, once there were 4 votes on Otoshi (thus a good chance of getting rid of him), he switches his vote "to who he originally intended"! In fact, he doesn't explain anywhere why he's voting for Otoshi, except for saying it was who he originally intended on voting for! + Show Spoiler + On March 04 2012 09:57 DimmuKlok wrote: My idea and Mementoss's idea are actually very different. His idea was to force everyone into coming up with 2 very detailed cases on 2 different people. There were lots of problems with this plan. One of which he states right after he tells everyone the plan: All town need to participate and the cases need to be damn good or they will get accused. This meant that the mafia simply didn't have to participate and all it took was one town player to not put in the effort. If you were going to participate you needed to put in a lot of effort, therefor not many people contributed and the idea died. Not surprising considering 4 people didn't even put in the effort to vote, and at least one was town. This idea has none of those problems. You can choose to benefit the town by making a more detailed post on your scum read, but you don't have to. What you do have to do is post. Don't, and we'll simply lynch you.

I do get a feeling that mafia would accuse others of behaviors that they themselves are doing... I must not of read that post thoroughly, so I appreciate the repost... fits in well with your latest..... No, my line of thought is that he switched into voting for Otoshi to try to lynch him after it was clear that a bandwagon was under way (like he did day 2). Of course, it wasn't enough on day 1 because we had 3 people (discounting myself and Otoshi, of course) who failed to vote. His initial vote was Beorn.
