Could be a Doc still around and then a GF in the mafia team. Or even technically, if Stormtemplar is RB, doc and a Serial Killer who hasn't been using kills. Unlikely at this point.
I do doubt that Stormtemplar is town--he even said he would "lose for his team" either way rather than town at one point, and a lot of his emotional posting can come from feeling he's letting a scum buddy down. He also said specifically, in his claim: "town roleblocker", not just "roleblocker". One of the only reasons someone would think to mention "town" in that context, I imagine, is if they are scum (he could be the type that likes to capitalize his letters and write Town Roleblocker but he didn't).
But we have a lot of day left and should be extremely thorough since this is LYLO and we need to catch both of the scum.

This game could have been much simpler had we not tunneled owb. I thought storm was scum day 1 and still do today.
I was willing to drop the accusation because it seemed to be going nowhere. I need to go over the filters again, I got caught up in work earlier today.
There are some questions we need to examine.
1) Did anyone want to save xIvanJ over the other people who didn't play?
2) Did that person vote in a manner indicating scum? Late vote changes, suspicious activity near deadline aka playerboy.
A bit of info to look at and consider.
MLuneth (4): Zaragon, JohnnyLaw, heavenz, Balla24
onlywonderboy (3): playerboy345, Balla24, heavenz, Zaragon With Balla switching his vote to heavenz last minute.
These facts are not concrete in making a case by themselves but just another piece to look at when considering who we lynch tonight.
Also, curiously storm wanted blurry lynched day one and didn't vote for him then second day instead bandwagoned with me on playerboy before blurry was night killed. To be honest though, last night's kill was very smart as he obviously knew forum mafia better than most of us. I'm going to keep digging at people's actions and hopefully we get more conversation going tomorrow.

Trouble is you had that sudden "onlywonderboy is certainly mafia" post, heavenz.
And the one where you didn't seem to care about winning for town, anymore.
You also asked, after saying you were roleblocked, in which order night actions were processed. As vanilla town I don't see your motivation to do that. Potentially soft-claiming a role is mainly only a good idea if you're mafia, and otherwise it could be interpeted as a scum RB slip.
And you said "advantage of clearing playerboy" which you EBWOPed to "possibility", after suddenly town reading him when you had been at least somewhat suspicious before.
So many things tell me Stormtemplar is scum, and you are, and playerboy. Balla strikes me, more than most people who have been in this game, as making newbie mistakes but doing few outright scummy mistakes. We have only 2 days of voting to go off of and he refused to follow the three most active players in the game on the vote last night, so I can't say he's a clearly sheeping scum either. If you are town, heavenz, I can understand if it looks like a relatively easy game from your perspective; it's not quite that clear cut from my perspective.
I don't want anyone breezing through LYLO. Fight for the town, guys

Sorry onlywonderboy, I really thought you were scum :/ I guess your death is kinda my fault T_T
So I think this game is basically Zaragon's to win or lose, right?
Also I noticed that Koshi probably didn't suspect me as scum as he never really mentioned me in any of his posts.
I'll try to be more useful today as I probably have more time to spend today compared to yesterday.

Town's game. If there are any cases to be made that haven't been yet, we need to find them.

yeah I know, that was badly played, but I don't see how that makes me scum. I read him as town, but I was dissapointed by his progession, he only cared about himself, that annoyed me, that's why I just wanted to push him, but I should have realized that I got opposition from the scum, so I should have stopped before the end,.. I was just hoping he would really be scum. Mistakes were made.
Btw, you keep looking at mistakes, that's not how you should play it. Look at the motivation behind the actions.
1) I wasn't the town leader
2) I wasn't convincing
3) It was really dumb, and I didn't care if you would have lynched me afterwards, coz the game with the ton of afk'ers felt like a waste of time
so basicly it was really bad and risky. If I was mafia, I would feel beforehand if more players thought that he would be a good lynch, not 180 and go for it no matter what, and that on an unimportant target.
I didn't cover myself in glory that day, but I made up for it.
Either way if you consider Stormtemplar mafia you can't think that I am mafia too.
Also this is my 2nd game, I claimed I was roleblocked because I was roleblocked (even stormtemplar attest it), I claim vt, coz I am, I never claimed anything else.
I want to ask you a question. Consider my claim to be true for a second. Now make up reasonable mafia teams.

EBWOP "no opposition from mafia", had to look that word up made mess the sentence 
|
Ok so this game is confusing the crap out of me at this point, I really thought onlywonderboy would flip scum :/
I'll go read through Koshi's filter and see if he left us with something useful.

You're right. You and Stormtemplar cannot be mafia (very very very very low chance, if they are then they deserve the win LOL). The thing is, that makes me believe that Stormtemplar is town more than you are town.
I would like to bring up Heavenz's votes again:
Day1: Mluneth... ok everybody fucked this one up, can't really say much about it because everyone looks like scum in this case.
Day2: Onlywonderboy... He voted him in a completly 180 degree flip (he is acting pro-town), didn't listen to any defense, didn't give any reasoning besides quoting Bereft. How is this not the most anti-town behavior in the thread?
I'm sorry heavenz, if you are town you really dug your own grave.

well I am town, then we'll all go down with my funeral.

If you and playerboy were mafia, you needed a third target because both of you were close to getting lynched (for fairly good reasons). So it's not about mistakes. If the two of you were scum and had set up the beginning of the day as you did, how would you move heat off playerboy? JonnyLaw made a strong case on playerboy as well (I have to admit, my cop check on him did strengthen it in my mind as well) at an ill timed moment for a heavenz/playerboy scum team. And you drew suspicion with your posting, which was careless as either scum or town.
Yes, I would have expected you to be more careful, and yes I would have expected you as mafia to look more carefully at who to NK last night

I would point out that that is not a very townie post heavenz. You've been operating with certainty all game long, and town is never certain. Even "Confirmed" townies usually have some element of doubt, it's just that it's much more likely that they are town. You very rarely 100% know everything in mafia as town, and you've been playing like you do, which is very much a mafia trait.
Also, the DT think was a reference to my profile picture, I hit 2K posts and became a DT. The losing the game from either side thing was a continuation of my propensity for ill-timed humor, but I was pointing out that from any point of view and in all possible situations my play was a monumental screw up.
I'm still honestly confused as to what this whole debacle gained me if I'm mafia. Considering I was mostly not under suspicion and balla REALLY wasn't, if we're the scum team then this is the best possible senario, and it's a crappy and easy to predict one. I would have been much better off just staying silent. There's no motive to behave as I did for scum, while there is one for a townie.
The problem is, we have to assume you made a mistake either way, and comparing and WIFOMing which one you would make isn't helping me personally see if you're scum.
Honestly, from the circumstances, I would be almost sure it was Stormtemplar now (the odds of BBB, 2 town RB, combined with the odds of hitting the mafia RB the first night and forgetting to RB second night). Except, playerboy is coming in and showing he hasn't even read the game since last lynch. Whether that's genuine or not, it makes it plausible for a playerboy scum team to not have thought the NK through.
I need to look back more at motivations at different points in the game.
JonnyLaw and playerboy are right about Koshi, by the way. And it's an odd kill for playerboy/heavenz. He showed more suspicions about Balla and Stormtemplar than I; I was working completely under the assumption that Stormtemplar would confirm town RB after the night.
Also, Bereft was more skeptical of Balla early than most, and mildly of Stormtemplar if I remember right.
I'm quite confused about this game myself since several things make little sense.
Hopefully more information will come out during the remaining time.

I know, I played carelessly, I thought I am just a VT, if I die, what ever. But the situation arose and many modkills, and we're suddenly at the end of the game.
If you belive that Stormtemplar is mafia, it's stormtemplar and balla24, I just ask you to read my longer post again.
You need to understand the this is not a rating of who is the most suspicious, we just have to kill the mafia. Read the last game, umasi was mafia, he wasn't suspicious at all.
Playerboy mentioned that he played with Umasi in aonther game where Umasi was scum as well, you will not think he is mafia because he is more town than all of town.
I don't have any connection or responsibilty for playerboy, on day1 I assumed that the mafia was playerboy & stormtemplar. I made a case with JonnyLaw on Stormtemplar and I made a case with Playerboy on Onlywunderboy.
I think that Stormtemplar is scum, and when stormtemplar is scum he is scum with balla24.

Dude what does this even mean??????????? This entire game is about lynching the suspicious people. What else is there to go on besides suspicion? Why would you lynch someone if they aren't suspicious? The whole goal of town is to get the scum to become suspicious so that they can find out and then kill them before they kill town.
This is such a shit show. It seems to me like everybody is just bussing everybody because fuck everybody else. Please, zaragon, jonnylaw ASK MORE QUESTIONS. We're not going to get anywhere with you guys re-iterating the facts that we all know. You need to get people to share their thoughts on different subjects so that the suspects can possibly slip in their reasoning. This is one thing that Heavenz (yes, i'm going to say it again) has yet to provide. ANY reasoning for ANYTHING. Force it out! Of all of us, not just Heavenz.

You tied playerboy rather loosely to stormtemplar day 1. No reason you couldn't have bussed him and made out as if he was cleared when stormtemplar flipped town. If you are scum, I would expect some early bussing, to be honest.

It's LYLO after 2 days and scum's job is to not appear suspicious throughout the game. It's not as easy as who looks most suspicious.
I do have another question to ask. Balla, why have you read stormtemplar town all game and showed minimal suspicion about him? After the whole roleblock conversation yesterday, can you really buy that he simply forgot to use his? He was active in the roleblocking discussion, obviously.
Other than that, I need to see playerboy's take on what he missed of the game and his reads now.
|
Zaragon, the only person who picked a target and pushed them hard was heavenz. I give him that for a town read. I mean isolating onlywonderboy was not a good read. I'm sticking with my stormtemplar or playerboy read. I went away from what I liked day 1 and it bit me in the ass. Take your pick but you'll have to convince me to vote away from those two.
Sorry I've been busy. Ill be here the two hours before voting tomorrow to discuss the game. If you have questions or new information to bring up I'm more than willing to digest it.
|
Why do you think heavenz is less suspicious than playerboy? And you realize, if stormtemplar is lying he is confirmed scum roleblocker; if he isn't lying, heavenz is confirmed scum roleblocker. Why would we vote playerboy? playerboy is only relevant to see if he's part of a scum team with either of those people
|
I think they're more of a gamble. If we get one we win. I just think playerboy is scummy. It's late for me I'llo give full reads tomorrow before voting time. I hope you're around then if not, pick your vote and give a reason and I'll evaluate it. I work early in the morning tomorrow.

No, it's not that easy. But the whole process of this game is to make it so scum players become suspicious enough that you can lynch them. If a player isn't ever suspicious you will never catch them. Just because their actions aren't suspicious by themselves doesn't mean that together with something else they aren't suspicious either. At the end of the day, it will be who looks most suspicious, regardless of whether or not they are most suspicious now, otherwise why would you vote for them. Anyways, I don't even know why we're talking about this. It's silly. This is the kind of random rants we can't really afford right now. I shouldn't have brought it up.
To me, the case on stormtemplar was very very weak on day 1 and day 2 the attention was somewhere else. There wasn't much substance behind it and I couldn't find anything particularly scummy. Today however things are totally different. I can't believe him. Just can't. Koshi calculated the chance of a setup like this being 2.5% or something like that. That's so low. I can't really believe him straight up based on that possibility, but on the other hand the situation where he is ACTUALLY town roleblocker and he ACTUALLY forgot to roleblock just makes more sense to me with the way the game has flowed and the way he has played in general. The timing all makes sense. Everything else makes sense. The situation where he is scum roleblocker seems so contrived and unreasonable. It doesn't make sense. Why would stormtemplar roleblock Jonnylaw in this case and then why would he claim he forgot to roleblock?
I don't know. I'm a in a weird situation here where BOTH cases are incredibly incredibly low probability, in one case it's due to the way the game is setup and in the other case it's just because of how it all fits together.

playerboy is scummy, yes. And he has responded scummiest of all to these events, so far, barely even posting and giving the appearance he hasn't read what was going on. But he's not relevant for a lynch since either heavenz or stormtemplar is mafia roleblocker.
playerboy really needs to give his view and his scum cases, but I don't see how we can vote him tonight no matter how scummy he is. If heavenz is the roleblocker (likeliest teammate with playerboy) we kill him, roleblock playerboy and win without another LYLO. So if you want to lynch playerboy tonight rather than stormtemplar or heavenz, I'd really like to see a good case for it, because I can't see the logic there.
