If we're discussing lynches I think Storr's a good one for today. Unlike Obzy, I'm not seeing too much of a difference between his posting this day and day 1; sure, he has a higher number of posts it feels, but he's still not looking for scum as far as I can tell. His favorite lynch is nyx; in my eyes, this is mostly for being bad. Hes also mentioned being comfortable with lynching owb right before saying he likes one of owb's posts. I think I've repeated my suspicion of Storr enough at this point so I'll leave it at that.
My thoughts on poofter haven't changed, but no one else seems to be talking much about him for some reason? Won't talk too much about him here since I don't really have anything new at this point.
I'm just not sure about most of the quiet people: owb, nyx, E00e. They've all made some towny posts imo, even if said posts weren't that great. Out of them owb seemed to be trying the hardest to fit in without being too helpful, so he's my first choice if we lynch a quiet person. Nyx just feels too inexperienced so I can't really tell what he's trying to do, much less if he's trying to help mafia or town. I like that E00e is trying to reason and occasionally look for mafia (and his reasoning makes sense to me), but he just makes so few posts...
Refreshed and saw Balla's vote on Vonthin as I was typing. He looked not too bad to me overall, I'll go look at him more closely.

Ok. I want to lynch Jonny.
|
Short of that I don't like Storr or Von right now either. I would be ok going on either of them but right now I want to focus on Jonny.
|
Regarding Vonthin:
Most recently, he's pushed Storr. It happened after Balla's post suggesting that Storr is scum, but he's also been mentioning Storr as slightly scummy in his lists. I'm not sure about his questions. Storr's decision to keep his pressure vote on July the whole time didn't seem like a good question topic to me since Storr was inactive, and July's posts weren't even good once he started posting. Meanwhile, I agree with Vonthin in that I didn't like Storr's heavy aggression against nyx. On my part, it's because I think being aggressive is likely to make nyx not want to post and attract more aggression for bad posting. As Balla mentions, Vonthin points out logical errors like the stuff with lists. Eh, those things should be called out. Bad logic is bad.
I like Vonthin's reasoning about owb, I agree with them. I also think I might have posted similar things first. Sheepy maybe? Or backlash, since owb had been pointing Vonthin out multiple times. Well, I don't like how Vonthin voted right after I called him out on not originally posting a conclusive opinion on owb; if he was going to vote he shouldn't have needed to be called out.
That attack on Jonny is almost pure sheeping Van, I agree. And then not mentioning Van's suspicion of me also make me wonder. Though if he killed Van to help push a case on Jonny, I'm not sure why Vonthin would make a post like this:
On November 02 2013 10:42 Vonthin wrote: Only thing preventing me from voting for him is if he was mafia why kill the person who was putting the most heat on him? Wouldn't that make him even more suspicious then he already was before Van died? Hmm... upon thinking about it this could be to make himself not look as bad if someone points out the same thing.
Oh, and his latest list called E00e scum, and his next post about the guy called him 50/50. E00e made zero posts in between. He explained it as not having read E00e carefully at the time of the list, but inconsistencies are inconsistent and shouldn't be ignored just because there's an explanation.
Eh... on the whole he looks pretty meh. I don't think he looks much worse than other people without many posts. I suppose I'd be fine with killing him if we had to, but are you sure there aren't any better choices Balla?

@ Vonthin you have 9 and 10 listed with no names.
also again "lists" @vonthin you list E00e as scummy and @Balla24 you list him as town. could you guys go into more detail why. Why don't you expect a defense?

I said this before when you asked, and I'll say it again.. Short of convincing me that you seriously believe Balla is SK, why would a townie RB him? This post doesn't really seem to think that's the case, so why did you bring up the idea anyway? I'm sorry, but while I really like the fact your talking, you're just not saying much.

I see no point lynching him today, to see if he lied about being role blocked. This information will be available to us when balla flips regardless. He is being far to active in this game while we have far to many inactive players to even consider lynching him today.
You're going to lynch one of our biggest townreads to see if he's lying about getting RB'ed? For real? I don't really understand how you came to this conclusion. What did Balla get by claiming to be RB'd? Nothing. What did the town gain from Balla claiming to be RB'd? We now know there is a mafia RB. Obviously this deduction leads me to "we could lynch Balla and if he flips town we now know what we should already of known from his claim in the first place." Ye you posting you don't want to lynch Balla helps here, but you shouldn't have wanted to lynch him for information we already have anyway. This ontop of the fact you still haven't answered any of the questions brought up to you makes you look really bad to me right now.

Lynching someone is better than no one in most cases. Even if no one is using ANY of the info we gained from that lynch.
@obzy Oh yeah, why do you say that it's scummy for me to want E00e before July? E00e called out odin hard and fast. If he's scum odin isn't. It's simple. Sure I think Odin is scummy but again it's not 100% certain especially on day 1. At least there's easy info to be gained. They were both just clearly superior lynches and you were the deciding factor in getting july lynched.

@storr Yeah, you're right. It's been a long week and my tolerance for people is very low at the moment. I'm not helping anyone by being so abrasive. Honestly I think Obzy's mad I said I told you so! I'm acting like an entitled twelve year old. I'll crack down and get something accomplished. By your own logic here in response to Storr, you admit that you're having a hectic week. You've mentioned that you yourself realize that your being hyper aggressive. So me having a bad day and being really aggressive, a simple misunderstanding (That I re-explained to you and you agreed with to now understanding.), and some typos/bad formatting from one day is enough for you to decide for the whole game I'm scum. This looks really bad to me. Try to understand from my point of view, you are are saying "I know we talked about this and I agreed that it made sense." and then you completely 180 from this statement by ignoring to change your read on me by this new information.

@obzy You didn't like my comment that Odin was our best lynch even if he was town because he doesn't contribute. There's a 25% chance we lynch scum day 1. On july I felt it was closer to 10% chance and on Odin closer to 50%. July's play made no sense from a mafia perspective. I don't know what you're missing here.
@Van's post. His analysis is terrible. If you want to pressure a pair of people it's much easier to link them together and see what the reaction is in order to not create as much of a defensive vibe. Going straight and saying you're scum makes them consider their actions before posting much more than they would otherwise. I don't get how you guys cannot see this.
Honestly, I'm getting tired of everyone here. No one makes an analytic read of the voting process at all. Do you guys even try to win? I gave some people in this thread of the benefit of the doubt.

He calls me town after I waste everyone's time and clog up the thread for multiple pages arguing with obzy and balla. I don't like this at all.
He says he's bad at the game and goes on a feeling voting for you. That seems very sloppy if it's mafia play. Some people do not express themselves eloquently. I mean, there's just not much to go on with this read.
He's not the worst candidate for lynching. I'm going to reread a bit and see if someone stands out as a better choice. Half the time you open your mouth it is to try to get into a multi page argument with whoever you can prod into being annoyed enough with you to do it. I fell victim to this myself. Obzy is saying E00 didn't have any better reads, given the confusion that came from my early post I'm inclined to beleive he's right. You go on to continue to fight with Obzy.

You realize you're just taking the bait by trying to vote me scum. If you're scum, who better to kill than a guy who's making aggressive posts about other town players.

You argue with me, try to get me mislynched on day1 when I wasn't even around to defend myself, pull me into a huge argument to try to make me look bad, and you yourself are posting now that you are doing the exact same thing I did that you initially almost got me lynched for D1?

1.Jonny - Honestly not sure anymore, I don't see why he would kill Van if he was mafia as it would put him in the spotlight. I don't like his early cases on Odin, after the drunk posts I think he posting exactly the same as last game where he was town.
2. OWB- His filter is just as small as mine but I feel like he hasn't contributed much in those posts and is just trying to blend in. He started out posting just about meta stuff and how lurkers need to post stuff. He kept this up till someone called him out on it. The post right after said he would start posting reads and stuff and he did but they were reads that were either common opinions like how Nyx is prob town since he posting exactly the same as last game and then the popular Cake is scum read at the time. His third read in that post was about July, wasn't saying he was scum but was saying he is playing different than last game and we should watch his posts. Talks about lurkers need to post, which is always a valid thing but they know they need to post more(well I know I need to post more and hope others know that to, also find it funny since he is also a lurker who has posted just as much as me). He posts some reads again about how Storr hasn't done much and then he says his main scum read is on E00e, I thought he was somewhat suspicious at the time but he doesn't really give a reason why he is voting for him other than that he looks suspicious and doesn't think he is town. After that he says he has to go and won't be back before the deadline. He leaves his vote on E00e but doesn't say why he is voting for him and in the earlier post where he thinks e00e is scum he doesn't give any good reason other than he looks suspicious. That just seems really scummy to me leaving a vote on someone and not giving clear explanations why.
He comes back and responds after being called out by Balla about leaving the vote on E00e. He says he didn't want to not vote and felt e00e was a safe vote, never says any reason why it was a safe vote again, when someone asks him about that he says he gave his reasons on e00e in that earlier post. In that earlier post all he says he feels like its a good vote because he under suspicion and that he hasn't done anything to make me feel like he is town. I just can't accept this as a answer for leaving a vote on someone.
His last post was calling me out, I deserved to be called out at that point since I didn't post that much and a lot of my reads were sheeps. I just find that its funny he called me out on that when he has hardly put any reads out there too and the reason he voted for E00e was just cause he was under suspicion at the time and doesn't seem town. That looks like a sheep read to me.
3. Balla - As for Storr's request as for why I think he is town all game I thought he brought up good questions and pressure on people. I have agreed on almost all of his reads all game too. None of his posts have just seem scummy to me.
Will post my e00e and some other thoughts later, gotta do some ranked 5s with my team and practice for a lan in a couple of days Ok, so this really makes me think you are trying to deflect off Jonny and onto OWB. He's not around to defend himself and people are skeptical of his motives. Better go ahead and try to soft-defend Jonny and try to get a train going on OWB.

Sure, Balla wanted you dead Jonny, but I didn't see support coming for that since I thought some people had town reads on you.
I'm not sure we should be looking too deeply into Van's death. He's strong enough of a town player that mafia might just want him dead even if it incriminates them imo. Also, exact opposite interpretations can be made of his death: either van's suspects are mafia and wanted to kill their accuser, or those suspects are innocent since they would never incriminate themselves by killing a vocal accuser like that. But of course, if the mafia knew the latter, they might feel safe killing their accusers and expecting town to think that they'd never do that...
So vonthin, do you think owb is mafia?

Its not bad logic. I'm saying that he's pointing out little logical fallacies that are easy to spot because that is a very easy way to appear town. They should be called out yeah but it also fits how I see him playing as Mafia.
I don't really have any better targets but I'm open to options. I feeeel very good about lynching vonthin.
Cake I'd like to open up the question I asked Jonny/obzy to you too... if you were Mafia who would you be pushing for?

Regarding jonny's "scumslip". I noticed this too. I didn't bring it up because
1. I had town read on him 2. I've seen town leaders make similar 'mistakes 3. The context around it makes sense for him to say 'other town members'... since he was being aggressive to everyone. 4.

This is the post I least like recently from Johnny that I'm not sure I addressed fully besides the July information point and bereft not being scum.
First off... think about how you play this game as Mafia: you act like you do when you're town... you make pro-town posts that are attempting to mislead the town sometimes and other times they are not. So me acting the same as I did last game makes sense... except I would just say there's a lot MORE pro town play with no misleading... I'm not being as careful and my intentions are not as veiled... I really wouldn't say I'm playing all that similar.
Secondly you are his informed. Last game I originally said bereft was acting a bit differently to try to reflect my uneasy read on him... I retracted this fairly quickly. Bereft was town. This game I said Odin was acting the same as he was last game (at least in my opinion) because I was trying to defend him since I had a tiwn read on him. Should be fairly clear the differences in the situation.

Alright Balla, but what makes you so sure he's town? Because I was on the fence about him for a long time as well. He would also fit into your point about whoever is leading scum probably doesn't mind a faster paced town. Which if you spend 2 and a half hours derailing the thread fighting with someone could fit this bill. Mainly because I felt like I got drug into tunnel visioning him so hard and I didn't want to base my thought process because of it. I'd like to hear from other people aswell. I'm not 100% going to stick on Jonny regardless of what is said, but right now I think it's worth discussing for a D2 lynch. Luckily there is some time. Also I have the day off tomorrow, so while I will only be around for maby another hour (It's getting pretty late), I will be able to be back fairly early tomorrow.
|
I'm not 100% sure, but mainly because his anger seemed very genuine, and so did the pre lynch July "defenses" . He has been derailing the thread a lot, so much so that I have no idea who he's going to vote today. I'll form a better opinion tomorrow.
Im actually already in bed reading filters on my tablet. posting on here isn't very fun.
|
oh and honestly I think my point about not killing me = experienced scum was pretty fucking bullshit when i think back on it... I dunno what I was thinking
|
hmm.. ok well considering it mainly just us right now I guess I'm just going to call it a night myself. I'll check back in on the thread in the morning when I get up. I will have a few errands to run in the morning so depending on how active this thread gets in-between now and then I might not be able to post until I get back.
