Or is it?

We can watch the who votes on who. We can observe who listens to who. We can deduce who has a inherently positive disposition to who.

I find myself sounding rather like an owl :/

hold your horses buddy i live in a different timezone. i think you're reading a bit too much into my post, i'll try to clarify.

when i said sometimes it's good to no lynch in lylo, i think there was some confusion. idk what terminology is used here. maybe mylo? basically i meant in a lategame situation where the town can potentially throw the game away with a mislynch, but has killed enough scum already to eat a nightkill, especially if it means town power-roles get another shot. i was talking about a very specific scenario, so maybe i shouldn't have qualified my statement at all. so let me be clear, lynch is always better than no lynch.

and i didn't post because i was called out for lurking, i posted because i was about to go to bed and that's always when i check mafia threads. the day hadn't even started last time i checked the thread. i'll be here with more frequency now that the game is going.



idk what point you're trying to make here. i made a very general statement, and you countered with an extremely specific example, with which i'm not familiar.

hope this clarifies things. i don't know what FOS means yet, i'm going now to check all the terminology that's used in liquid mafia, but i have to say i've read your posts and i like your play, as long as you don't get tunnel vision on me. pressure is a good way to get the discussion rolling. and isn't much better to build cases on people's posts instead of the lack thereof? that was the only point i was trying to make when i called tofu's call for a lurkerlynch stupid.

Okay, gossemerr, read the post above. I dont feel that a lynch on firmtofu will have any non-town results.

This is not trying to lynch you. I apologise for being so wishy washy and understand why people may not like this decision.
Unvote: FirmTofu
Vote: Gossemerr

I think we need to use this night phase to get some cases rolling. We don't have much to go on as far as cases go from Day 1, so we've got our work cut out for us.

One thing I noticed from the votes that I found very interesting was Koritora's No Lynch vote. Here's one of his early posts:


Then he turns around and:


First he says that he's suspicious of anyone who is against lynching on day 1. Then he's all of a sudden against lynching on day 1? This seems like a huge contradiction to me. Is it possible that he's trying to take away suspicion since he didn't vote for the mislynch? I'm not sure, but it's definitely possible. I think he's definitely worth a closer look.

At the moment, there's been so much limited activity, I'm finding it hard to get decent reads off.

I'm still waiting for an answer from Koritora, but at the moment, he's my best scum read for the reasons that I presented earlier.


Phagga is looking pretty townie to me, his posts make a lot of sense to me and seem to have the right intentions behind them.

Nova_Terra, I don't really know what to think about you, to be honest. It seems like you're trying to be active and helpful, but things like your defense of your actions on day 1 being very defensive and emotionally charged don't quite sit right with me. Neutral for the moment.

Seviro actually looks a bit scummy to me, not enough to come out with any sort of case on him, but I'm keeping close watch on him.
