okay nothing interesting came up, yet. one thing i want to point out. if you're town, save all your conversations with your teampartner. if you're getting lynched, these conversations may provide something that speaks in favor of you. I know scum will do that, too now... BUT it's a lot of work to fake logs. and why should we be gentle with these guys?!

Could you elaborate? Filter him. His grammar and spelling is annoying and he's pushing nonesense that doesn't further finding scum.
I really thought that using bad grammar and no punctuation and saying "u" instead of "you" for a while would trigger someone to go for me just because it ticked them off. I kinda stopped when kitaman27 asked me to because I thought that a couple of pages would be enough. So what kind of nonsense am I pushing that doesn't further finding scum? I thought hyshes' statement was pretty weird and I pursued that, as did some other people so there must have been something to it. You have posted a great big picture and then said that lurkers aren't too cool. Then you want to "sit back until later when we can talk about power roles". Well I guess what I think about that should be obvious to most people.

Erandorr is not in this game. He just thinks it is funny what you said. I agree with this assessment.

While I agree that it is annoying, since when has this been a good reason for someone to be scum?

so I'm late to this party (and I didn't bring snacks), but I just want to say I think Hyshes is pretty lucky that discussion turned from his OP to how silly the execution of his tactic sounds. I don't see why someone who's trying to give an impression of modest townishness would even bring up such a ~secretive concept in the first place, whether or not it actually works. While it was a twuely fascinating discussion I'd rather see more defense of character.
other than that I want to say that Crofty is a suave, smoothtalking mf lol.

It is best to arrive fashionably late after all. What are your thoughts on the setup? in particular the way the team dynamic works with the low team number?

I don't really like your jailer usage GM. The chance of making a save or roleblocking a useful role is the same wether you "aim" it at scum or not. Only difference is that it saves a lot of trouble for scum in choosing their shots since they wouldn't bother shooting people that are considered scummy overall, since they are more easily pushed as a lynch. If there is a jailer he should definetely aim for a save as this makes things overall harder for scum. The chance of there being a doc or a jailer is 5/6, while having a doc is only 1/2. Having both aiming for a save is the best in making they choose non-optimal shots.

I have aditional thoughts on the setup which I'll save for discussion half way through the day.

You on the other hand seem to be immensely annoyed at being called scum. Why this reaction to being called out? It looks like someone might have something to hide...
Answering WBG's question about spelling and grammar, since when does a townie have a motive to make reading his posts harder and making him less likely to properly convey a point, making people more likely to disregard his posts?

For all we know they could both be scum, let's not forget possibilities here.

You seem to be all over the place atm, GMarsh.
I think that's a pretty convoluted reason to think someone is mafia, especially in light of a much simpler and robust reason for hyshes being mafia. I would take your reads and reverse them; I think hyshes is probably scum (with chaoser) and I can't read prpl atm.

I just realized Forumite is partners with prpl LOL
no wonder he wouldn't consider that a possibility

I'm not disagreeing, mind you, I just can't think of a reason why scum would post such an insane plan in the thread, rather than in the scum QT, unless he really *didn't* read his role PM, which would be patently ridiculous. We've seen many townies produce super anti-town plans in the past, which is why I'm hesitant to judge him just on that. I'm actually decent at reading chaoser, which is why I'm reserving judgement, I should be able to figure chaoser out a lot faster than hyshes, whom I have no experience with. So yeah, I'm jotting him down as a null read till I see more.
But by all means, pile on the votes, I'm intrigued to see how that whole team reacts.

Yeah I'm going to have to disagree with that. This isn't post-conversation-to-try-to-make-people-trust-you. This is mafia. Let's try NOT using shit like this to "confirm" one another. I thought we already covered this topic in PYPI

I agree with you, once chaoser starts posting we'll have a better idea.
However, the issue is not the plan about reading PMs. The issue is the fact that he's concerned about covering up mistakes, or preventing mistakes. Townies don't actively try to prevent or cover up mistakes; they're not concerned with getting "caught" (oh I caught a townie! yay!). Rather, scum should be afraid of getting caught.
There were no pro-town aspects to his plan. Sure, plans can be bad, but the merit of the plan is not what we're talking about. For the most part, I don't give a flying shit about 95% of plans. (ex. I don't care for your jailkeeper idea; I'm with sandro on that) However, I do care about motivation. A plan could be bad, but if it's pushed forth with town motivation I don't care, I have the information I need, and what matters is that we stuff the plan in the face so we don't have to deal with it.
On the other hand, if a plan is anti-town and it seems to be pushed forward with an agenda that we need to be concerned of, I get suspicious.

I didn't know you cared so much about what I have to say.
I'm in this game on more of an advisory capacity much like how some players/teams were like in RoL's team mini game (I also mainly advised that game).
Plans are useless this game. What's the point of a plan? Playing a dry cut and orderly game of mafia with analysis and logic should be enough. If you guys really are going to jump on a dude who posted a horrible plan outright and say he's mafia then I gotta shake my head at that. Mafia don't post a bad plan that's going to bring a lot of attention to them; mafia's not going to attention whore. Townies more often than not do that to either draw out mafia trying to seem "pro-town" (see wherebugsgo with his give me the ring plan in LoTR) or they're just really bad at making/thinking up plans lol. Mafia like to seem pro-town and post things that either agree with what everyone else is saying or lurks. Or they post genuinely good ideas that they feel don't really put them at a disadvantage.
