Also, it was saved in a word file. I had it the whole time, just wanted to hold onto it awhile.

Wait the lynch is in like 4h 40 minutes
Kitaman don't you care who gets lynched? Why is your focus on the game with an actual deadline?

I still don't see what the problem is with lynching redFF at this point. He's never gonna get shot by the mafia if he's town just to make us sad, will get RBed or *And I think this is the case* he's just mafia and punched out this tracker claim since he's out of breathing room and will claim RB.

Why are you so against lynching BC? Did his reads in L impress you or where did you get the idea? Have his contributions impressed here so far?
no his contribution has not impressed me at all this game. I also thought he was mafia in L because he did very little early on or at least did the wrong things (imo) because he was talking about this mason thing way to much d1 and completly ignored scumhunting d1 back then. I liked what he did in GMs 80-player game although it was a little wishy-washy to get to the new guys as well. He's one of the few guys that mafia want dead early on really badly if he really is town because they know he's good. If we're wrong on him we're giving mafia a couple of free KP they can use somewhere else because they probably would doublestack him to get rid of him instead of "just" mislynching. Same about you.
I'd say it's to risky to lynch into people like that d1 for those reasons.

Because if he is town, as seems likely, we are lynching town? Not being shot by mafia is fine as presumably he will be posting more and make himself look towny to everyone else. Further, the roleblocker will eventually die.

"The wagon formed too fast" is not really an adequate rebuttal to the entire case that redFF is scum. I doubt he will come to defend himself, hasn't he ragequit the game because WBG called him bad? I'd expect there is resistance, but if scum plays that badly town can overwhelm the mafia resistance and in this case if I'm scum I'd be looking for an alternative lynch to push.
@Dirkzor This is very troubling:
I find it highly unlikely that RedFF is scum.
followed by
At the same time we can't just keep RedFF around because he claimed a blue role.
If you find it highly unlikely a player is scum, you shouldn't talk about lynching them or encouraging DT's and Vig's to possibly hit him. Your case on BH is fair though. I'm in the process of second guessing myself a lot because of how uncomfortable I feel about VisceraEyes right now. I don't understand VE's meta at all but I don't need to at the moment. I let him slip by Day 1 on Arkham City and I always make the same mistakes that lets this kind of thing happen, I lack confidence.
Hopefully BC responds adequately to the pressure, but for the moment I'm pretty uncertain. Considering the time I think it's highly unlikely that anyone besides redFF will be lynched. If he is indeed the tracker, it doesn't give us really much to work with considering the ease and size of the bandwagon.

Also, what DrH. said should put added to my post as well.

Cool case, brah. Would it be ok to say that chaoser is a red read to you, then? If not, who then?
He made one okay point therefore we shouldn't lynch him? I agree with it too. That doesn't mean anything really. BC is way better than this.

No, I'm completely unfamiliar with BC's meta other than a game I played with him as scum too long ago to remember. That game was a perfect victory for us too.
Dirkzor has made some alarming posts but also some solid points against other players, I want to hear how he responds to criticism before I consider lynching him because I may just be misunderstanding or misreading him.

So you sheep all game and then say it's okay to lynch town just because "mafia won't shoot him" night 1? How do you know what the mafia will do? WIFOM galore and lynching town is not okay.

What you think redFF should live? I can't see him being anything but a liability going forwards. I guess my question for you is, "do we want to assume the mafia is retarded" and if so, then yes maybe they will shoot redFF n1. On the other hand it's possible they're not, and, hey, nobody who plays mafia here is that insanely dumb. What do you know

prplhz looks pretty awful. He doesn't really have many opinions of his own, asks a lot of questions and his posts are constructed in a way that makes it look like he is just filling space. He appears certain that redff isn't mafia, but also thinks he has to be lynched at some point. Just look at this post
Okay I don't think that redFF is scum because he's been pretty out there. The scummiest he has done in my opinion is his claim which was oddly timed. Right now he's a terribly easy lynch, because we'll have to lynch him at some point. I'd like to see wherebugsgo explain how everything redFF has done can be explained by scum motivation and can not be explained by town motivation. The worst thing about this whole redFF thing is that the lynch is so easy that everybody can just pile onto him and then the day is kinda ruined, we aren't going to find anybody else. I don't think that redFF is scum because he's just been putting himself too much in the line of fire. A lot of things are suspicious about this post, but just to name one he asserts that redff is an easy lynch and thus we "aren't going to find anybody else". That is complete nonsense and just seems filler. Him randomly assigning blame on wbg seems off too. He thinks redff is not scum, but hasn't even tried to find anyone else. The only thing he has going for him is his attack on bc, but considering he is just sheeping me and not pushing at all, that doesn't mean much. He hasn't bothered to post today and he has definitely been around but doesn't seem to care.

Since apparently the votes for BC aren't going to be there, how about we lynch prplhz instead

It is WIFOM. I agree scum would probably not shoot redFF if he is town AND survives Day 1 considering he's distracting and an easy lynch target, but I don't agree that it's alright to lynch town. redFF's claim is stupid and I'm not sold on it considering he didn't even say a name with it and just dipped out immediately. They should roleblock him but I just don't like making arguments or lynches based on predicting what the mafia will do. I can think of countless times I've been scum and we've concocted to do the opposite of what town would expect, even make bad shots just to confuse people. Mafia is not a game played by machines that make the most efficient decisions and even if what he said is likely correct, it is not helpful.

This is a fair point. I like Tyrran and Prplhz for lynches today.
