TL Mafia XXII - Page 51

First, from Zbot:

+ Show Spoiler +
Those should be all his posts, for reference. He also voted for nbtnbt5, calling it just a random vote on an inactive. He then changed it to jpak. He was the 7th to do so, after BC, Fishball, Radfield, KF91, Cynan, and d3, which is pretty far in and might be considered a “bandwagon.” But if he, like me, was just trying to get rid of possibly useless inactives, it makes sense for him to change his vote to someone who might actually get lynched. I’m not reading too much into this vote change.
He also says when changing to jpak: “RaGe has done nothing but ask us to chill the fsck out.”

His first post was “Que madness:” and it was relatively early, probably just a nothing comment, but Abenson jumped on him and tried to vote for him straight off the bat (later apologized).
He then says “Firebat > Zergling. Owned.” Alluding to their post count on TL (and portraits). The exchange with Abenson is pretty useless and not game related.

As Inc pointed out before, he prefixes his next post with the “I’m noob” card, and then suggests that saving the double lynch is better. Is this his first game? If so, then this is pretty legitimate. If not, then he’s probably faking and scum. (my first game and I didn’t take the time to read through old games, so if vets can answer this)
In his next relevant post, he notes his suspicions of the Zona v BC argument; suggesting that one of the two is scum. He also says that we shouldn’t be focusing about assassins (the whole BM thing) since they don’t matter too much (which we all know now).
“Here's my supergenius plan: lynch the least active player, it's the quiet ones you gotta watch!”
He follows through with what he says here in his voting, as noted earlier.
Then, he reasserts that we shouldn’t worry about assassins. After this, Caller calls him out for having a “mafia-like” post that is really vague, non-committing, and not contributing.
Responding to Caller’s calling him out (=D), he writes a pretty aggressive post, saying BC is either “wasting his time or scum,” also saying that either Ace or Caller is scum, and accusing Caller of “trying to be good cop.”
So this post reminds of his earlier post, saying that either Zona or BC is scum – it seems he likes comparing two guys against each other (bad grammar, you know what I mean).

The next related thing we have is Inc calling Osmoses out. Inc basically accuses him of Caller did, which is not really contributing at all despite an okay amount of posting. “all of his posts are empty” in a sense.
On a side note before his next post, Radfield mentions his early Zona post, and points out that Osmoses was bandwagon-ing a little (following BM) in accusing Zona. But I guess, even though Radfield was the DT, he never got to check anyone, so this isn’t that big of deal, just a pro-towner’s analysis.
Osmoses takes awhile to respond to Inc, but he finally gets around to it, saying “I'm really sorry, but I AM a newbie and I AM confused, I don't know what to say. I'm just trying to be active and participate,” so his response to Inc is to reassert his failure. But he follows up with some good analysis of BC/Zona, calling Zona “too aggressive” and somewhat scummy. The analysis seems pretty good, he picks out a lot of subtle things from Zona’s posts. He concludes that post with an agreement with Rage’s non-FoS plan.

His next couple posts are mysteries to me… something about a bleeding tampon, and then a comment on Ace’s trolling. The second one is irrelevant, but the first… idk lol.

---Night 1 comes---
His first night post… laughs at how jpak was an assassin. …..o.o. I’m not sure why it’s funny. This to me, is a little suspicious, but not too too much.
His next post has some analysis. He once again defends Rage, and calls out a few other inactives. He then bashes on Caller, saying that Caller might be scum. He labels tree.hugger as town “for sure,” and calls Zona out again for being inactive, calls out Cynan as well. He agrees with KF91, and says Day 3 is a good day to start analyzing… which to me is either stupid or suspicious.

Conclusion
That was mostly summary, lol. Osmoses seems to have a accusation habit of pairing two guys and saying it’s one or the other. He’s been particularly favoring Zona, which makes sense to me – once you have someone in your notes and they don’t do anything to change it, they … stay there. I might be guilty of the same thing in this game actually. Perhaps the most suspicious things from him are his slight inactivity, his complying with Caller’s request exactly and replying with a very aggressive post, his attachment to Rage (or so it seems), and his siding with postponing analysis / doubly lynching until later…
I don’t really know what to make out of his posts. Maybe someone can look at what I’ve written and come up with a verdict. Osmoses has a feel suspicious things about him, most of them I just listed, but overall, he’s offered up some good analysis and, despite a little inactivity, hasn’t done anything that screams scum to me.
