ugh I hope this isn't "hi I'm VT bye" because night doesn't mean we can't play. especially when you won't get killed for your reads because N0


And what if it is?

sweet, even if no redchecks, we can find all five town by D3, which PoE the other two for confscum!
good job!

such plan much wow

any NA still ard or am I stuck waiting for EU to wake up?

pls it's 25/42 odds (so about 59%?) of prerequisites.
anyway even if the odds slightly favor us I'd rather play a solid game with real reads and such. blue roles are boring


Cop should 100% claim tomorrow, regardless of what happens.

Hey guys I had to go in today and work a double shift today unexpected. I just got home.

Looks kinda bad though with doc dead :/. I'll be honest I dont feel like reading through the 45ish pages right now but maybe after I've had a little bit of time to relax

I don't agree with Chairman ray's logic about scum would only post in best case scenarios.

I pretty much don't agree with NU's line of thinking regarding TW trying to buddy him, but I think his activity (lol) and bothering to explain it like that makes him town to me.

Ray looks sketchy to me.

TW looks Town.

Just sat down and actually read TW's plan before, I kinda didn't pay much attention to it at first. It's actually dogshit assuming cop and doc are going to make it through to d2 with everythink hunky dory, so much to the point that I have a hard time thinking he meant it to be taken seriously.

NU says (I had a hell of a time trying to copy/paste this quote so I'm just copy pasting the direct portion):

"His posts don't seem like he's trying to appear good rather like he's saying what he thinks."

And I think this is a hella convoluted thing to say. Saying what you think isn't necessarily a town indicator, and conversely trying to appear good isn't soley a scum indicator.

I don't have a good reason for this though, but twice he's said he likes to "reward town for giving a shit".

Yo, TW, you up for a chat with me? I've one spare hour

I've got half of one but sure

Noice.

Do you think you're a good cop check for tonight?

no because I think I'm one of the more likely players to die tonight

That's the generic answer.

Why do you think so? Have you ever been NKed before? Judging from HM3 idk why you would think you're in danger of being killed, lol.

If you have some non-math related questions for me, do ask. This game is pretty slow so far.

because the NK is always between me you and Koshi. the other players aren't 'respected'and aren't acting townie either

Oh wow, so much honor for me. c:

What do you think of other players' entries, specifically cakepie entering with math and hopeless checking in to check out?

And Koshi, what happened to the "This town isn't going to be lazy" shtick you had last game?

their entrances are not exciting so idc

as for you, me, koshi I like to reward give-a-shitness

I'd lynch either Tumblewood or NeverUnlucky. Both of them posted a bunch of game math yesterday, with the mistake of assuming everything goes well for town, even going as far as avoiding the scenario where either the cop or medic dies. A town looking at game math usually thinks about worst case scenarios and how to avoid them, whereas scum try to convince town of the best case scenarios happening. Neither of them even mentioned the possibility of cop or medic dying, probably because Koshi was a respect kill and not a blue snipe.

worst case scenario: blue role dies
ways to prevent it: doc save ask politely none
glad we figured that one out

and I think I did say "if things don't go according to plan we play mafia as normal"


Point taken. You mentioned that you are leaning town on NeverUnlucky (specifically you said not neutral). What's your reasoning for that read?

it's my way of trying to get people to be active. I reward people for trying if town is dead.



the way he's speaking about "rewarding town" instead of rewarding a player is really fucking off. You reward a player with town cred, you don't "reward town" for speaking.

Best lead I have so far. But I'm skeptical. What if I'm just seeing your read and starting to suspect him because of that instead of actual scum slipping. hm :/

I kinda switched train of thoughts in the middle of the above post without properly marking it.

"I don't have a good reason for this though, but twice he's said he likes to "reward town for giving a shit". I've switched to talking about TW again

I was typing a post out and deleted it because I've come to the conclusion we're in a really shitty spot. But the conclusion I've come to is:

Cop should claim ASAP

This is the situation we are in:

mislynch and lose. In an ideal world, cop doesn't claim today and we move on to night, coming back the next day with cop claiming and giving information. However if Scum, or the Cop is on the chopping block today, they will almost certainly claim/fake claim cop. If nobody is claiming cop at EoD it almost certainly means we are lynching VT.

Our focus has to be getting through TODAY. We don't have the luxury of being able to reliably lynch 2 people. Our best bet of figuring out who is telling the truth, and who is lying is to get the discussion about it happening now. If nobody Counter Claims Cop, we're fine. If 2 people do claim cop, we want as much discussion time about it as possible to work it out.

This mean cop is essentially going to die at night, and that kinda sucks. But I think its our best bet to actually get out of day 1. I can't see scum just laying down and dying if they are on the chopping block so the Claim/Counter Claim scenario happens in our best case scenario. We should get it going NOW instead of later.

Just got home, skimmed haven't really read cakepie's posts or responded yet, but can we vote no lynch? If we don't have to lynch today then we're fine. Every game in TL mafia I've played you have to lynch every day and I was under the impression this one was the same way

Ray looks sketchy to me.

TW looks Town.


Just to expand on my previous point, I didn't mean that scum would only post in best case scenarios, but instead that they might mistakenly ignore a very obvious scenario that town wouldn't.

The one scenario that was almost ignored was a blue getting killed N0. If they were town, they could have genuinely believed that if a blue died, we don't have to do anything differently, but if they were mafia, maybe they weren't planning to blue snipe so they ignored it.

But the bigger thing they left out was the scenario that mafia fakeclaims, in which case there are no confirmed town or redchecks on D1. There's a fairly good chunk of math in this scenario which they shouldn't have ignored. Unless of course they knew that mafia wasn't going to fakeclaim, and look where we are now.

So just to summarize, these are my suspicions:
- TW and NU post math assuming that blue roles don't die - Koshi was killed, who I don't think was a blue snipe
- TW and NU ignore the scenario that mafia fakeclaims - Mafia aren't fakeclaiming

So yes, I think it's very possible that they were just speaking casually on whatever was at the top of their mind, but given that they decided to math out a very narrow scenario without much reasoning, and that scenario happened exactly as they assumed, it seems like a really big coincidence.


This is what I have a problem with @cakepie. TW and NU post math that assume blue roles don't die. But that's not scummy in the slightest. Scum have absolutely 0 way of knowing if they are going to catch a blue or a VT. They mapped out scenarios in which blues don't die on N0 and then blues did die on N0. The scenario didn't happen exactly as they assumed. The lack of fake claiming at this point doesn't mean much. It will happen eventually but just because it hadn't happened (and especially when CR posted) doesn't mean it won't happen. Using all of that reasoning to imply that TW and NU are scum is complete bullshit imo. And the cherry on top is he back pedals with "but its possible they were just casually speaking whatever was on the top of their mind"

Summed up

"Yeah I wanna imply that you guys are scum with really bad reasoning, but not commit to it." Looks sketchy and very possible scum-filler type of post.

I like CR's posts, his suspicions, questions, justifications for everything are well reasoned and show appropriate suspicion.

But would you agree that it doesn't quite pass muster for both scum NU+TW to come out and try to dictate plan to town?

ExO is doing a poor job of actually reading the thread

Is this for #107 + #110 or is there something else that makes you say this?

Re: CR - I wouldn't dismiss the notion out of hand, but its not high on my gutcheck rating. Being able to come out on blue-planning is a really safe way for mafia to seem invested without actually doing anything. That is only compounded by the fact that our doc got shot first, rendering a huge portion of N0 reasoning useless for the purposes of planning. CR is at least trying to use those posts to get reads.

Re: ExO - There are those two posts, and then there is him somehow thinking there are 50+ pages [#96. #97]. That might have been sarcasm? I'm not seeing a motive for him to do this as either faction other than straight up carelessness, its more of an annoyance than a scumread atm.


I literally misread 5 as 50, b/c every other TL mafia game I've played (mostly I've played large ones) has a bajillion pages and I saw the 5 and thought it was 50.

Anywho if we can no lynch though that changes everything. There'd be no pressure for scum to fake claim. Should absolutely no lynch, and have cop reveal at the very end of tomorrow night.
