Game State Tracker:
Day 1:


The Rules:

The Golden Rule:
This is a game. Everyone who signs up to play must be considerate of each other, never get personal, and focus on having fun. Once the game starts, having signed up is a commitment: inactivity is just as inconsiderate as rude comments.


The Standard Rules:
1. No communication between players outside of the game thread or shared QTs at any time. This includes passing references, jokes, or cases in other games or threads, whether in context or not.
2. If the game thread is locked, do not post. If you are unsure if something is locked, ask the mod by PM.
3. Direct or verbatim quoting of mod-provided information is strictly forbidden. Paraphrasing is okay.
4. Actions with instructions that do not specify a game state will be resolved in the order they are received.
5. All night actions must be submitted within 24 hours of day ending.
6. Players must post once every 24 hours.
7. Do not edit or delete posts, ever. If you need to clarify or correct something, post again.
8. Invisible text, font size less than 10, and spoiler tags are not allowed.
9. Cryptography is not allowed.
10. The time between a lynch being reached and a flip being provided is called twilight. All players may continue posting during this time, including the lynched player.
11. Dead players may not post in thread or QT. A lynched player is not "dead" until a flip has been provided.
12. Personal multimedia, such as video or audio recordings, are not allowed in the game thread.

The Voting Rules:
1. Votes should be in this format: Vote: Playername. Unambigiuous nicknames are acceptable.
2. Unvotes should be in this format: unvote or Unvote: Playername.
3. Unvotes are not required if changing your vote from one player to another.
4. You may vote: no lynch.
5. Lynches occur when a simple majority (rounded up) of living players is reached. Once reached, a lynch cannot be undone.
6. Lynch rules vary by the number of players alive. With 10 or more players alive, the player with the most votes at the end of the day will be lynched. Ties are broken by coin flip. With nine or less players alive, if a majority lynch is not reached by the deadline, no lynch occurs.

The Rest:
1. Bold, purple text is reserved for the Mod. Players may not use it.
2. If you have an issue or problem with the game, please PM the Mod. Do not post complaints in the game thread.
3. Mods make mistakes - please point them out gently. If they can be corrected, they will. If irreversible, they will stand as final to be commiserated over after the game.
4. If a mod error disadvantages one faction greatly, the game may be called off.
5. Ask all questions and make all requests directly to the Mod via PM. Questions deemed as "universal" (defined as questions for which the answers should be available to all players) will be requested to be re-posted in the Game Thread and answered there.
7. Prods will be issued by request after 24 hours of inactivity. Players are subject to replacement or modkill upon the third prod request.
8. All rule violations will be dealt with according to their severity, as determined by the mod.

Deadlines:
1. Days will last ten IRL days.
2. Nights will last two IRL days.

The setup for this game is Traitor8 and was designed by yuma.

Traitor8 is a semi-open setup for 11 players. Setup generation is a randomized process that is open and explained below.

Mafia:
2 Mafia + 1 Roleblocking Traitor

Town:
Up to 8 players

One of the following rows or columns adding a scum add on depending on the row added:


xxxx               Column1         Column2         Column3         Column4         Add-On           
Row1              VT                  Detective         1-shot CommuterGoon Cop         1-shot Investigation Immune/SK
Row2                Watcher            JK                     VT                     Psychologist       2-shot JOAT       
Row3                1-shot Bulletproof Townie VT                     JK                     BodyguardTraitor Knows Mafia         
Row4                 1-shot CommuterPsychologist        Detective            VT                      Mafia Knows Traitor   
Add-On              2-shot JOAT       Mafia Knows Traitor/SKTraitorKnows Mafia/SK1-shot Investigation Immune      xxxxxxx           

To clarify here are the 8 options:

1. Detective, 1-shot Commuter, Goon Cop; 1-shot Investigation Immune + Serial Killer
2. Watcher, Jailkeeper, Psychologist; 2-shot JOAT
3. 1-shot BP Townie, Jailkeeper, Bodyguard; Traitor Knows Mafia
4. 1-shot Commuter, Psychologist, Detective; Mafia Knows Traitor
5. Watcher, 1-shot BP Townie, 1-shot BP Commuter; 2-shot JOAT
6. Detective, Jailkeeper, Psychologist; Mafia Knows Traitor + Serial Killer
7. 1-shot Commuter, Jailkeeper, Detective; Traitor Knows Mafia + Serial Killer
8. Goon Cop, Psychologist, Bodyguard; 1-shot Investigation Immune


Serial Killer: (if applicable, present 3/8 of the time)
- 2-shot JOAT, which includes a passive 1-shot Bulletproof, 1-shot Strongman, 1-shot Investigation Immune. If the Bulletproof is used up one JOAT attributes will be lost. If both the Strongman or Investigation Immune is used at night the Bulletproof will be lost as well.
- The SK may choose to give up NK and instead perform any one of the 8 town roles listed above during the night. Each role may only be used once by the Sk during the game.


Mechanics:
- All roles will be used according to mafiascum specification unless otherwise noted below.
- Daystart
- Mafia JOAT is an option of Strongman and Ninja (each can only be used once) and is not an assigned role, instead it is universal for the mafia team. But is instead a role that any alive mafia player can use it while performing the night kill.
- Mafia Investigation Immune is universal. It will return results of "Not Goon" to Goon Cops, "Not Killed" to Detectives, "Can't Kill" to Psychologists and "Didn't Target Anyone" to Watchers.
- Traitor does not know the identity of Mafia Partners unless it is added on as a bonus. Traitor will be informed at day start of the Mafia's identities in a PM if that add-on is selected.
- Mafia does not know the identity of the Traitor unless it is added on as a bonus. The Mafia will be informed at day start of the Mafia's identities in their quicktopic if that add-on is selected.
- Flavor will indicate if a player was killed by multiple factions, but will not indicate which alignment performed specific kills.
- When the Traitor dies, if at least one Mafia Goon is still alive one will be chosen at random to inherit the Roleblocking role. This Goon will be transformed from a Goon to a Mafia Roleblocker.
- If the Mafia target the Traitor with a NK, the Traitor will not die unless mafia is using a strongman kill. Otherwise, the Traitor will be recruited and become a Mafia Roleblocker and be given access to the quicktopic.
- The Traitor can Roleblock a Mafia NK.
- If the Traitor will inherit the NK and become a Mafia Roleblocker if is the only Mafia player alive.
- Goon Cop will return results of Goon or Not Goon.
- Detective will return results of having killed or not killed.
- Psychlogist will return results of being capable of killing or not capable. But if a kill has been performed previously, the result will be falsified. Traitors are not capable of killing until they have been converted into Mafia Roleblockers
- Roles cannot target themselves.
- Flavor will not be indicative of alignment.

Order of Operations: (roles listed earlier in parenthesis will be performed simultaneously)
Modifiers (Ninja/Strongman)
Commuter
Blocking (Jailkeeper, Roleblocking)
Protective (Bodyguard, Bulletproof)
Killing
Investigative (Watcher, Psychologist, Detective, Goon Cop)

Win Conditions:
- Town wins when all threats to the Town have been eliminated.
- Mafia wins when Mafia (not counting the Traitor, unless the traitor has become a Mafia Roleblocker) controls at least half of the Town and the SK, if present, has been eliminated.
- Serial Killer wins when all other players have been eliminated. If a scenario exists where a Serial Killer and a Mafia the following will be followed:
   * If the Traitor is the last mafia alive, Mafia will win.
   * If either original mafia are the last mafia alive, the SK will win.

Flavor

(http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/what_xkcd_means.png)

Each player will be assigned an xkcd comic(s?) as their flavor.  There will be no difference in flavor for town and mafia.  If you wish to submit a specific xkcd comic or multiple comics that you enjoy for your flavor please send me a PM with the link to that comic(s).  All flavor will be written based on the comics assigned or just xkcd comics in general.  Your specific comic strip will be used as flavor for when you die.

Well, as far as I remember, you don't make much short posts and prefer long ones to make but that was the tendency for all the players in all the first 40ish games. Also, you're not in a spotlight ever, hiding in shadows and waiting. I can't quite remember any games where you were town :)

Day 1 Start

The International Convention of xkcd Fans (ICXF) was well under way. There were several small displays of various comics with artists and admirers from all over the world, but primarily everyone was there for the Ultimate xkcd Comic Strip of the Century Award. Some argued that titling the award "comic of the century" was a gross exaggeration, but the organizers really didn't care. They made they event and the award, they got to name it.

The voting began with a vote for the format of how to do the voting. Some wanted single elimination. Some wanted double. Some wanted round robin. Eventually, they just made a bracket and voted and it ended up being single elimination. So they gathered up the best 256 comics and began voting.

It was a tense time as round after round passed. There was chaos everywhere. Soon, however, they were down to the final 16. Voting was about to begin for the final 16 when suddenly 5 comics disappeared leaving just 11. The Grand Organizer decided to launch an inquiry. Someone, or something, was trying to rig the Award instead of allowing a fair voting process. The result of the inquiry finally came back. A sign was posted:

"It has been determined that there are those people who submitted comics have been tampering with the vote. We know that those individuals are still out there among the 11 remaining comics. We have determined that the competition can continue if the remaining 11 contestants can find those rogues rigging the contest. Otherwise, we have no choice but to call the whole thing off. In the meantime, please enjoy this honorable mention xkcd comic (http://xkcd.com/557/)"

Thread Unlocked

Vote Count 1.0

Not Voting (11): Calamitas, Roadrunner7671, Awaclus, Robz888, LaLight, faust, Ichimaru Gin, Eevee, gkrieg13, schadd, SpaceAnemone

With 11 alive it takes 6 to lynch. Day 1 will last 10 days. The deadline for Day 1 will be Thursday, 19 January,  at 1 AM forum time.

If Robz is looking overtownie, he's surely scum. If overscummy, he's surely town.

Thanks god Eevee is town, they've made a perfect scum pair with Robz.

Yeah. The problem is I play way more cautiously as scum, and take the game more seriously, but when I'm town I'm okay playing a little zanier, because the worse thing that can happen is I get lynched and oh well, I wasn't scum. But I promise I'm going to try to put more effort into my town games, starting right now. It's actually genuinely exciting to be town again, hasn't happened since Mafia 87, which was my first game since coming out of retirement. And great to see Ichi again!

Mm. Generally when I'm town scum likes to vote for me.

It's been said that there isn't much difference between my town and scum play...which makes people suspect me and paints me as an easy target for scum often.

I've been known to be "the guy that claims at L-5" or something like that.

People love to joke about my OMGUSing tendencies, but it has greatly subsided compared to its heyday.

I generally view everything through a lens of how people read and interact with me specifically--that's how I get my reads.
And. I think I do much better as scum when I can operate independently. I tend to let other people take the lead when I'm part of a team. I don't play nearly as well when I'm trying to follow other people's directions.

I kind of play a mix of trying to protect my meta and win the current game(s) I'm in, but I lean on the side of burning everything for the faction I'm currently playing as--even if it hurts my long game.

PPE: It's good to be back Robz!

I didn't managed to look nearly as innocent and townie in my second scum game (when I had Robz and Eevee as buddies).

So setup talking stuff. It's happening. I think I'm having the same thoughts I had in the last run.

Not all claims are created equal. Some will give us more setup information than others. There are roles in the setup matrix that exist exactly once. Take, for instance, the Bodyguard. This role has a unique place in Column4/Row3. This means that a Bodyguard claim would reduce the number of possible setups for us to 2. Any other PR would even know exactly which setup we are in. This means the for the rest of the game, scum cannot claim a PR without being counterclaimed.

The flip side of this is of course that we give scum setup information. From such a claim, scum will be able to deduce the exact setup. But I don't think that's such a big issue. They already have a pretty good idea anyway.

Then of course one needs to assess how much a PR is hurt by claiming. I think that Bodyguard is a pretty weak PR anyway and it may well be worth it to claim. Goon Cop and Watcher, two other unique roles, of course shouldn't claim. The remaining role is the 1-shot BP, which is a bit of a tossup for me.

Claiming early has certain advantages here as this is a relatively small game and the possiblity of a SK means it could move to LyLo-ish situations pretty quick, and then claims are no longer reliable.

Interesting.  Although, isn't it kind of important for mafia to know who the traitor is and vice-versa?  I guess both of them already know one half of that equation (traitor knows if they know mafia and vice versa), so maybe it isn't that big of a deal.

That's the only real downside I can think of.

All my experiences with gkrieg lead me to be believe that he is a very sharp guy. Making traitor-jokes in this setup is.. not good. Isn't that post almost akin to someone breadcrumbing a town role that can only exist once, and then the person who actually has that role dying (and flipping their role) later and someone catching the breadcrumb someone else made. The traitor does want to signal their existence to the mafia, so there is the clear scum narrative for doing something like that, but town really has no reason to do it.

So, I'm wondering if I'm missing something. Admittedly,itt does seem a little on the nose for him to do as the traitor, hence my question.

I don't know why people are making such a big deal of this.  I thought it would be fun to try to confuse scum.  If they have more than one person signalling traitor to them, who do they kill? 

I also don't really think your analogy works here.  If the traitor actually dies, no one is going to look at my breadcrumb and think "oh he was lying about being the traitor, he must be mafia".

The analogy is just meant to be a situation where someone does something that town would never have any incentive to do (breadcrumb a role they don't have <-> make a post about the traitor willy-nilly), when there is a scum narrative for it (as scum wants to do those things).

Like, can't you see it's dangerous, if only because others would view it as scummy and they might lynch you?

Except you would want to say exactly that. If you were catched with a subtle breadcrumbing there is no way you would get out of there. And the probability of scum catching the subtle one is actually smaller than the probability of town doing so (basically same info but more people).

To be fair, I also think gkrieg could have faked some theory around the traitor-post if he wanted to, which would point towards this being an honest mistake and not a ploy.

Don't know what to make of him being (a little) defensive now - when making my question I was expecting either some reason I didn't think of, or "Oh, that's right, that was a mistake".

Sorry being defensive probably because of IRL things not because of this game.  I also thought it would be a good idea, and was surprised that I got so many votes for it at the very beginning of the game.

At least we kind of skipped RVS, and I got some good reactions.
Would you also react to my questions please?

Also if we all breadcrumb that we are the traitor, isn't that a good thing?

Plus, if I really were the traitor, why would I place that in my first post?
So did you or didn't you breadcrumb Traitor?

Yes I did.  It was a ploy that is now ruined.

Well, if mafia thought I was the traitor, I wouldn't be killed N1, and they wouldn't know who the real traitor was.

Also, I could see if people caught on and voted for me (I didn't think this would be so sudden!) and that would give me some kind of information.

So your ploy was to make a post that singals to scum that you are the Traitor while at the same time making it clear to everyone that you couldn't possibly be the Traitor?

I did not think gkrieg was breadcrumbing traitor, and if he was, maybe he's town and wants to screw with mafia. So this is a total null thing that does not matter.

... says the person who did not actually breadcrumb vig last game!

Sorry for being quiet. Busy day at work, but I'll read things properly when I'm home in an hour or two.

It was sort of an unintentionally misleading fake breadcrumb.

Of all the commentary on gkrieg's breadcrumb and faust's questioning of it, this is the post that feels scummiest to me.

To me, the comment and the various reactions to it clearly matter, and it's the best non-null thing we've got going, since other than my vote on Eevee, we seem to have got away with pretty much no RVS, which is great. So why is Robz so eager to move on and not examine gkrieg's motives? I mean, if he wants to go back to faust's setup discussion or something, that's great, but he's just kind of trying to put the dampers on one conversation and not even divert to a new thing.

Oh, I think people seizing on it is interesting, and I'm glad it moved us out of RVS, and watching gkrieg try to defend it is possibly illuminating. I was just giving my opinion on the actual incident in question--not the reaction to it, or whether it was good or bad for enhancing discussion. And as for the actual thing, gkrieg coming out of the gates with a reference to the Traitor, I don't think it's scummy whatsoever, for the reason I stated.

Vote: LaLight

I don't know, seems like you are trying to contribute without really saying anything. As faust points out, it's very odd to say nothing that's happened is alignment-indicative if you also developed a town read for gkrieg from it.

I think, based on gkrieg's reaction, he was surprised about the reaction for this. I think had he cooked this up as a scheme (as a traitor), he would have anticipated a reaction like this being possible more likely than town!him just thinking of a ploy on a whim and posting it, and now being surprised how it's received. All in all, I thinkfor  someone capable of being measured, like gkrieg, this is a town tell. Wasn't it totally a thing in the past that our day 1 lynches were always town that had tried something a little unorthodox?

So yeah, a slight townread on gkrieg, because I think the narrative fits better that way. Glad to warp through RVS like this, so well done gkrieg in that regard!

It's true that gkrieg's play doesn't add up if if was really supposed to be Traitor signaling. But it also doesn't add up as a town ploy. I don't really that much think he's a Traitor, but that doesn't mean he cannot be scum.

What do you think of my theory that when good players do unexpected, arguably anti-town things, especially day 1, they are usually town, because as scum they'd be more careful not to do them?

Isn't scum!gkrieg even more likely to not want to look scummy? People put way more thought into their scum games, in my experience, although this is general, not some assumption or read on gkrieg specifically.

I sort of agree too, though also what about the motivation for sk!gkrieg to post something like what he did? I did a bit more musing on that last night..

So, posting what he did, gkrieg ends up looking a bit scummy, so the scums themselves don't want to pick him off even if they know he's not the real traitor (because some set-ups let them know who it is anyway). To the scums, anyone looking a little scummy is better left alive to begin with. There's one modifier that scums might have that never intersects with an SK, and three that do, so chances are, they're in a position of thinking it's 50-50 whether or not an SK exists.

To the rest of us, there's a less-than-50% chance of there being an SK anyway. Certain roles (3/4 of the ones that only appear once) are incompatible with SK at all. For the other ones, Detective existing means a 75% chance of an SK, 1-shot commuter, goon cop and jailkeeper each give a 50% chance, and psychologist gives 25%. Anyway, we're likely to be confused (as we were!), but would rather hunt for actual scums rather than kill a traitor who isn't able to do the NK, given that we have a low(ish) prior on the existence of an SK.

tl;dr maybe I'm a little more suspicious of gkrieg than yesterday, but for different reasons, and while I think that would have been a cunning play as an SK, the chance of him actually being SK is really low.

I now expect to get voted a little bit for talking about SKs and reading the setup thoroughly, but in my defence, LL already pointed me out as a setupsy person :-)

Merely "mentioning" the SK, as faust and schadd did, is fine. Space went significantly further than that:

I sort of agree too, though also what about the motivation for sk!gkrieg to post something like what he did? I did a bit more musing on that last night..

So, posting what he did, gkrieg ends up looking a bit scummy, so the scums themselves don't want to pick him off even if they know he's not the real traitor (because some set-ups let them know who it is anyway). To the scums, anyone looking a little scummy is better left alive to begin with. There's one modifier that scums might have that never intersects with an SK, and three that do, so chances are, they're in a position of thinking it's 50-50 whether or not an SK exists.

To the rest of us, there's a less-than-50% chance of there being an SK anyway. Certain roles (3/4 of the ones that only appear once) are incompatible with SK at all. For the other ones, Detective existing means a 75% chance of an SK, 1-shot commuter, goon cop and jailkeeper each give a 50% chance, and psychologist gives 25%. Anyway, we're likely to be confused (as we were!), but would rather hunt for actual scums rather than kill a traitor who isn't able to do the NK, given that we have a low(ish) prior on the existence of an SK.

tl;dr maybe I'm a little more suspicious of gkrieg than yesterday, but for different reasons, and while I think that would have been a cunning play as an SK, the chance of him actually being SK is really low.

I now expect to get voted a little bit for talking about SKs and reading the setup thoroughly, but in my defence, LL already pointed me out as a setupsy person :-)

This is a fair point, but I was looking for SK first too when game started and I'm town. For me it is because I know for sure here's Mafia and the more important thing is to think if there's SK.

But! I didn't write any of this because I merely want to look on nights amount of killings. But that's me, whereas Space is setuoy person. It's totally normal for them to make a post like that.

Tl;dr: if I could write posts and formulate thought like Space does, I'd make the same post. And I'm town.

Sure, but you missed bolding the first use I made of "sk", which was the entire point of my whole train of thought there: it's the role with the best reason to fake-breadcrumb traitor, and it's worth at least considering if we're throwing around all those other possible motivations for gkreig's opening post.

Why does the SK want to make the mafia think he is the Traitor? The mafia can recruit the traitor in this setup, yes? The SK doesn't want to convince the mafia to shoot him.

Most of those volumes are about differences in our character, I guess.

I think M84 (BSG) is the only game I've seen a traitor in before. That was a closed set-up (plus gkrieg vigged him on N1 anyway) so there was no real traitor-related set-up discussion. I hadn't actually twigged that conversion was a thing for this game, which may sound odd, but that key sentence is hidden as the second sentence on a bullet-point two thirds of the way down the mechanics words. In all my prior werewolf experience, we had a really common role called "dark villager", so I assumed "traitor" was a bit like that: a "townie" on the scum side. So my analysis works really well for that, but not so well if the traitor has the chance of becoming a scum themself. Urgh.

What do you think of my theory that when good players do unexpected, arguably anti-town things, especially day 1, they are usually town, because as scum they'd be more careful not to do them?

Isn't scum!gkrieg even more likely to not want to look scummy? People put way more thought into their scum games, in my experience, although this is general, not some assumption or read on gkrieg specifically.
Usually I would agree, but what confuses me here is that gkrieg apparently still thinks his post was a good idea.

Well I will admit that I didn't think it through for that long. Obviously it didn't work how I thought it would so I don't think it was the best idea, but I don't think it was a mistake either.

Sorry for being off so long, but I agree totally with SA here.
First, theorizing is no more a scum tell for them than for me.
Secondly, their conclusions are pretty good. Besides from them being no more likely to miss the recruiting part as scum than as town (of anything it's vice versa) thay doesn't matter here. Traitors would be converted anyways at the end, so shooting is not that much off an issue here I think.

I really think the only notable thing was gkrieg's traitor thing, and I honestly think talk on that is scummy. Scum would try to inquire more as to whether or not gkreig was trying to softclaim traitor, because then he'd be able to sneak more crumbs into more posts that he'd make about traitors.

Unvote since my vote on you was mainly just instead of requesting a formal prod because you were seriously lurking.

If I just wanted to draw attention to the "traitor" part of gkrieg's statement, fixating on my SK theory was a poor way to go about doing it, and would have been even if my idea had had merit in the first place.

Whenever, in recent games, people have complained in D1 or so that everyone looks townie, someone has come along and suggested that townie play means that the scums are vets. Yet you've not made that conclusion here, nor even mentioned the fact, which I think means you're fishing for someone else to say so to start more wagons.

I don't think that is the intention here. Would also not make sense to think the scum is "vets" because what does this even mean? When I look at the player list, 7 out of 11 people have been around long enogh to definitely be categorized as vets, 3 have already shown that they are very much capable of playing a good scum game, and then there's LaLight himself, whom I don't remember as scum.

So who did did you was LaLight trying to frame?

It's also not very difficult for scum to avoid suspicion on day 1. I would argue that the current meta is that scum wants to attract early suspicion if they can, not stay exempt from it.

Checking things is overrated.

You and gkrieg are the usual targets of that argument when I've seen it (and LL and I have played in mostly the same games), so you pair are the first two to come to mind for me.

However, I think the more telling thing would be who he doesn't include in the perfect-meta-mimicking-vet pool, because that would be the safe place for his buddy to be hiding. Top of that list from my point of view would be schadd and RR, since the latter seems to manage to escape the mantle of scary vet even though he's been here longer than many of us. Calamitas is also not really a vet yet (he joined the same time as me and LL), but his early-game play is usually quite empty anyway.

This is all ridiculously speculative, though, which is why I didn't follow my observation up with an actual vote on LL. Like him, I'm just posting a thing that occurred to me because it's interesting to hear what other people think of it.

Ya I don't think the vet theory is particularly true anyway. D1 people just decide to lynch someone for a kind of random reason sometimes. And I don't think it is that hard to be townie D1 even for a newbie.

I think a more applicable theory might be that scum has more of a need to justify not having any scum reads (at least for me that's the natural state as scum, it's hard for me to fake suspicion unless I see something I would think is scummy if I was town). I didn't get that vibe from LL's post, though.

I don't really remember my behaviour as scum in that one game I was one. But I don't think I would've just write the post like that one as scum.

A quick summary of people and their posting habits so far. Number in brackets is post count since day start.

Calamitas (3) where is he? He's usually quiet D1, but there's been theory talk and everything.
Roadrunner (4) mostly only commented after I'd voted for him.
Awaclus (5) is making very sparse (but quite evenly-spaced) posts, and not pushing things along.
Robz (12) At least he's active.
LaLight (34) Pushing the game lots. Want to keep him for the moment at least.
faust (26) Same as LL.
Ichi (11) Lots early, then a bit of a drought. Only one single post (#129) really comments on this game.
Eevee (17) Engaged and interested for now, so I want to keep him.
gkrieg (14) Weird post, then defensive. He and I almost always scuread each other though.
schadd (6) Very few posts, of which #133 is the only real content, though does vote 3 times in those 6 posts!
Space (17) Currently the leading wagon with plurality lynch in effect :-(

Vote: schadd for jumping on anything going.

Strange thing is that i don't remember the last game I thought everyone is looking townie, but this is surely what happens now. Quickly reread Robz and he looks scummy and I would lynch him, but that means that he's town (and I wouldn't lynch him). Here are a few of people who are null to me: Awa, schadd, IG. The rest just looks towniesh..

I am so proud of how far you have come in terms of reading me.

I don't think that is the intention here. Would also not make sense to think the scum is "vets" because what does this even mean? When I look at the player list, 7 out of 11 people have been around long enogh to definitely be categorized as vets, 3 have already shown that they are very much capable of playing a good scum game, and then there's LaLight himself, whom I don't remember as scum.

For me personally: I'm a data scientist/R&D researcher in a start-up, so I like details I can analyse properly. I'm not so good at big wordsy arguments: when Robz and I were claimed vigs together in M90, he convinced them to lynch me even though he was the scum :-( I use singular they as a pronoun, or she/her if people really can't hack it.

Geography can be useful to know, especially with an end-of-D1 deadline that's in the middle of the night for Europe. I'm in the UK (forum time +5, though I'm also a night owl). Calamitas is in Germany (forum time +6, and is sometimes on here arguing even later than me, in spite of being an hour ahead). LL is in Moscow (forum time +8, but he has a remarkable ability to get by on very little sleep!). I think schadd is in the US, but I don't actually feel like know him very well myself. Hi schadd :-)

I was looking for a comment from Robz in particular.

Schadd already had a wagon, which got up to three people. His play so far has not been massively different from Awaclus's, except that he has a few more very short posts. I just wondered why Robz wanted to ignore that one completely and go for Awaclus instead. Perhaps I should have asked him to clarify the differences he sees between Awaclus and Schadd instead.

Let's lynch someone. I nominate Awaclus, for lurking and content-free posts.

Actually I have mixed feelings this post. Looked like Robz is trying to play his meta being a little scummy so everybody will think he's town. It's not a feeling enough to vote for Robz but still.

The very "Let's lynch someone." phrase. It's like you don't want to actually scumhunt but going to the early end of the day for some reason.

I don't even know why we are talking about content-words ratios right now.  It has been proven over and over again that this doesn't really show anything about someone's alignment, it is just an easy thing to quantify.

I don't know if I agree with that.

People have tried to get me lynched based on it, and it has always been when I was town.
ooh, yes, i remember doing that


I don't recall much about him. How does one read Eevee?
unfortunately there can't be a tracker in this setup so i dunno (l0l)

Pretty sure the correct answer to this is just "yes" :-P

I might've used it to cast more suspicion/vote a little earlier in D1. I felt like it was kind of close to commenting on an ongoing game, though, and now that the RMM is over, I empathise more with LL's frustration about scum always winning.

(The only two town-won games I've been town in are the two in which I died first night!)

We really just need something to talk about. Are we all playing so cautiously that there really is nothing to talk about? The games are usually shot to action with some incident, and gkrieg's thing clearly hasn't been enough for us yet.

I really don't think I can say I have reads to speak of yet either, which is super bad for this late in day 1. I'm sure things will speed up come the deadline, but the mad scrambles against time are probably pretty beneficial for scum? I actually don't even know, because sometimes people come out looking extremely townie out of them too.

I'm not totally against voting Eevee (there was a point in the game where I managed to forget he was even in this one!), but other people's posts are also forgettable. The only reason I remember anything Awaclus has said is because he's voting for me, for instance. Do you have a stronger argument than that on Eevee, and/or a reason why you think the others are more likely to be town?

So what time is 1am forum time for you?

For me, it's 6am local time, and there's zero chance of me being awake, either at that sort of deadline, or for a good few hours beforehand.

With the usual players on this forum being spread between forum-minus three and forum-plus-eight, the band of times when we're all likely to be awake runs from about noon till 17.00 forum time, maybe pushing an hour on either side of that depending on individual players' schedules.

Though for most of D2, our eastern-most player will be visiting me here in the UK (yay!!!), so the later limit could change (especially if we need to schedule internetting time for ourselves when we're not both in the same room as each other!).

Post by: Eevee on January 15, 2017, 07:33:05 am
So cool about a meet-up! Sounds amazing.

It's 8am for me, that's indeed a good point about me never being awake that early. I'll know later today if and how much I'll have school, but from my end just staying up until a few hours before the deadline is probably the most reasonable alternative.

Of course we can also lynch before the deadline! (Not looking likely.)

Categorizing the players in this game:

Active people moving us forward, I don't think I like lynching any of these because we don't want to become even more of a ghost town: SA, LL, faust. I don't mind giving scum and incentive to play active and post a lot.

Everyone else I could see myself lynching. I'll do some rereads.

RR reread: I didn't remember he was in the game. He has been commenting on the few things that have happened, but nothing groundbreaking or even generating more discussion. I think a narrative for struggling town looks maybe more likely, I think my posting history would look pretty similar to RR's (if with little more posts). Hard to say of course from 10 in-game posts, RR hasn't really offered many reads yet.

gkrieg: In many games simultaneously / VLA? He hasn't posted a lot, but the posts that he has made look towny to me - he is commenting on the alignments of other players, seems like he is trying to generate reads. Scum gkrieg would also of course be able to fake this, but we are dealing with very limited information, and I don't see anything that makes me want to lynch gkrieg. YMMV if you read the traitor-thing as very scummy of course, but to me this looks like town as well. Gkrieg is also a very useful asset for us later if town.

okay, I've only played with Eevee with him being either scum or IC. And he did better than this. I remember RMM7 where he was town and I see the same now. Not voting yet.

And as much as I hate doing this at all, but vote: faust. Looks like he's looking for easy mislynch.

I thinks it's shown in my play that I'm pretty relieved to be town (with no IC responsibilities) for a change. I've definitely been posting much more care-free than in the previous two games.

Because this is the exact behaviour I saw from scum!you in the game I modded.

I disagree with the SA wagon as well, they look towny and also at this point have an activity pass for today from me as well for activity. Why are the votes for awaclus garbage?
Because Awaclus is not doing anything that would warrant a vote and you cannot vote Awaclus for reactions, so the votes are pretty useless.

If there is no reaction, that just means there aren't enough votes!

Post more care-free? I think so, I haven't really been filtering myself at all, even dabbled on unsubstantiated voting in the case of Awaclus.

No, but seriously, I'd be happy to move my vote if I developed an actual scumright, however slight. I'll try to reread more of the not so active people to find a place for my vote later today.

I don't know if it's just me, but voting for some of the less active people sounds a lot like an easy excuse to vote for a mislynch. Scumreading a townie isn't trivial to explain afterwards, so scum would obviously want to avoid that.

Reread Ichi, he doesn't seem scummy either. He was more active in the beginning, but the posts did seem towny to me and again nothing raised any alarm bells. May be that his positive attitude from the beginning is clouding my judgement a little bit, but it gave a me a towny feel all the same.

Your first vote of NM9 was for Jake. He's like a mislynch on a silver platter.

I don't see why scum doesn't want to go for a smooth and uncontroversial mislynch for D1, though. That's especially true in a game where there are lots of vets, so it's not immediately obvious that scum has to kill one or two particular people first.

I don't think Eevee is a good lynch at all. He's not producing a ton of content, but really no one is other than Space.

And I disagree with faust that Eevee is playing like he did in Mafia 90, when he was scum. It's hard to identify exactly what's different here, but he seems, I don't know, a little more carefree, perhaps--like he's feeling liberated from the burden of being scum. This is a feelings rather than evidence thing for me, but it's more than enough to not lynch Eevee today.

I don't find faust scummy for thinking the other way on this, though.

I'm still pretty keen on lynching uber-lurker Calamitas. RR is also a serious consideration, though I agree with Eevee that "struggling town" fits here. I've never seen Calamitas struggle to contribute as town, though.

Yes and no. Generally, your personality will determine the factors that will be apparent in your playing style regardless of your alignment. Your alignment will determine your perspective, which will also be apparent in your playing style, regardless of your personality. If anyone had paid any attention to the perspective stuff in RMM38, you would've caught me red-handed the moment I voted for you even though gkrieg and J Reggie should have been closer to guaranteed scum from the fake perspective I had been constructing for myself. But you can't find any flaws in my narrative in this game, because there aren't any.

Why? Obviously you can read someone better once you have experienced him as both town and scum. LaLight only saw scum!Awaclus, so if he's finding him scummy for being the same as there, that argument does have less validity than it would coming from someone who knows town!Awaclus.

I can radiate towniness when I am scumhunting (i must have reads for that which I don't really now) or when i am on the edge being lynched (when i resist argumenta of other people). Wait a little, you'll see. And reread D1 of Literature. People tended to think i'm scum the whole game, thanks god i was killed and kept my statistics clean :)

I don't really want to lynch Awaclus or Robz from what I have read. RR also seems townie. I think Calamitas has earned a D1 pass.

I would be fine with Eevee and LaLight feels different here.

How do i feel different?

Hmm.. do you really feel that Calamitas's minimal posting level is D1-pass-worthy? He's quiet in D1 every game, and it must be such a trivial meta for him to copy as scum.

He's had much less to say so far than in any other game we've played together. I've seen town!Calamitas have no trouble participating previously.

On a more serious note: that helpfulness of SA rings bells in me. Remember you both were scums? They were as helpful there. I don't feel like town!SA is so helpful. And LOL is good, I don't argue with that, but I'd wait for Calamitas to show up and explain himself.

There has been just way less content than in any other game. If you want to see a town game where I barely contributed at all D1 you may look at RMM35.
And I don't think my playstyle makes the number of contributions I make dependent on my alignment. I would do setup discussion with both alignments, I would comment on things I find alignment-indicative with either alignment and I wouldn't comment when not being able to contribute as either alignment.

We should not claim for similar reasons I pointed out in NM9. Every claim results in an IC without a counterclaim and counterclaiming isn't really bad for us since it reduces the lynchpool to 2 players.
And those odds are really really good.

For reference my setup post from NM9 where the situation was quite similar:

Have to correct myself, was assuming scum would be forced to claim from within the correct row/column when making the fakeclaim.

I think I promised a LaLight reread.

There's a lot of answering questions and being helpful all around going on at the start, no actual reads though.

He's the first to jump on the gkrieg traitor thingy. That's somewhat townie. Okay, later he says it was a joke, so cancel that. I really don't like that "he's so scummy he must be town" reads that LaLight produces; they are crap.

Vote: LaLight

I don't know, seems like you are trying to contribute without really saying anything. As faust points out, it's very odd to say nothing that's happened is alignment-indicative if you also developed a town read for gkrieg from it.


I am trying to contribute, that's the point. I think gkrieg is town. Outside of that, I don't see anything. Yet. Voting for me is strange, given that all our conversation consisted of gkrieg's ploy discussion, I just try to think wider and analyse the analysis.
This is an interesting exchange between two of my scummish reads.

I don't know why and how it will help anyone, but Eevee's vote a little offended me :)
This seems like a towncred grab.

Unvote We are cool.

nono, I know we're cool, i didn't try to AtE, it's just I didn't get the reasoning behind the vote :)
And this this. Uh. That's a bad post.

Don't like the schadd vote. schadd is townie. But that's probably just normal disagreement.

I've lost like gazillion games in a row as Town, I don't remember my last win. Let's do it this time, please.
LaLight talks about how he's always town in every other post. I don't like it.

Oh, then he's voting for me! So add in some OMGUS.

Interesting is then he goes bak to Awaclus, even though he earlier suspected Robz for pushing an Awaclus lynch.

Robz and Eevee. Again, working as a team. huhuh I'll consider that. Calamitas is not really that scummy. I'd better vote: SA at this point (Awa is townie, got it)
This goes contrary to earlier posts where LaLight defended Spacey. What changed?

So there's quite some things that don't really fit together for me.

Agreed about not liking LL inserting them being town in so many posts.

Why is schadd townie? I'm interested in thoughts on how to read him, or thoughts on what people think about him here. Reading people you haven't played with is very difficult, especially before the first scum flip or meaningful night action result conflict.

It's true that my content is free, but there's a ton of it concentrated in all of my posts!

The other way around, it's not a problem for scum to scumslip, harder for town.

No, it's definitely a problem for scum if they scumslip.

Hey, I could say that it's Tuesday (in UTC+2 at least) and that would be a true statement to make. The fact that it's no longer Tuesday seven hours from now doesn't change that.

the two people that had substantial reads (i would say) on me in M87 were the cop, who got a guilty result (though he chose the right dude) and the rb, who rb'd me and noticed somebody still died


you haven't said anything controversial i think

schadd is hard to read in the same sense that Awaclus or Hydrad is hard to read.  There doesn't seem to be that much behind the posts, and they tend to play games that are not very alignment-indicative.  He is easier to sort out later though.

Post by: Calamitas on January 17, 2017, 02:14:30 pm
Speaking of setup discussion, did we reach a conclusion about claiming?
We should not claim for similar reasons I pointed out in NM9. Every claim results in an IC without a counterclaim and counterclaiming isn't really bad for us since it reduces the lynchpool to 2 players.
And those odds are really really good.

For reference my setup post from NM9 where the situation was quite similar:
Have to correct myself, was assuming scum would be forced to claim from within the correct row/column when making the fakeclaim.
But the point still stands mostly since claims from other rows/colums would get sorted out through or flips or a massclaim.
As someone who played this setup before, I can tell you that the claims absolutely do not sort themselves out.
Why not? Every piece of information (at least) halves the number of potential setups (pieces of information are PR flips and PR claims). And three pieces of info guarantee counterclaimability and I don't think it's unrealistic to gather those 3 pieces.

Now Ichi is going to sheep faust. That I don't like, faust is dangerous actually. I would sheep him, but only if I thought he's town. I am not going to sheep anyone here today.

I don't say he's scummy. I say I don't like it, it's dangerous. faust is very manipulative and convincing (either alignment) and if he is wrong, we're bad.

Ok you're probably aware of this since you read old games and stuff, but faust and I used to have like a big fight every single game.
And he would always try to get me lynched. And then I would OMGUS (I think I'm recalling this correctly...).

But people would usually not listen to me since although I'm pretty good at saving my own skin, I'm never been the
so-good-at-convincing-other-people guy.

I don't really know why faust have chosen me as a target. OMGUS in me tells that this is because he's scum. But there are people in the thread who contributed less or not at all. I may be controversial, of course! This is D1 of not-very-active game, every post people are making may make them more or less scummy on a scale from 0,3 to 0,5 (taking that 0 is IC, 1 is conf!scum) so I reevaluate my reads with every other post. The very idea that I am defending Space is quite hilarious, why would I defend anybody at all? There's no masons here as I recall the setup. I defended them when I thought they were talking sense, I voted for them when I thought they are not, this is that simple. You all look scummy to me, some more, some less, there is some bias in my head towards not wanting to lynch certain people D1 (like Ichi or gkrieg, reasons are different) but if they will make senseless post I will vote for them too.

Taking me as a reread target is a strange idea I don't really get. Well, the only explanation I can make is "why not" and this is legit, of course. I wonder what makes people think I'm scum in every single game and I guess this is what is called my personal meta which I don't know yet. Oozing townieness is a thing I can do, that's right, but if I recall correctly in most cases it was me claiming D2 and accusing someone after which people tell me I am wrong and it was terrible claim and I should've not do it never but they always agree this is a claim of confused townie. So after that they townread me. Now, even if I have a PR, i can't do it, it's D1 and in every game I will try to avoid doing that, sacrificing my icfying of the pr making it useless to good reads and trying to get more convincing.

For me, I just think they've been so helpful and active that with us having this many other viable options, I don't really think she "deserves" to be the lynch. Better to incentivize people to try and engage early for smoother games in the future, if the difference isn't big. Same concept as with avoiding lynching new players day 1.

I'm torn, gkrieg doesn't seem a bad idea to me either. Nor would I be opposed to listening
if someone had a third target in mind.

RR's been super super absent as well.

Fwiw, for me it's not just having 14 posts, literally the only read calamitas has offered is gkrieg being scummy for mentioning traitor.
1 more read than RR has given.

Hi. I think we've had a good D1, even before our lynch. Even if we mislynch here, it's still been a good day. I'm really not sure what to do if I'm not answering questions. I'm pretty okay with lynching anyone.

as i have told earlier I won't vote for gkrieg because he's the one of the towniest people here. I will maybe reevaluate this on D2 (if we both will live to that), but he has a strong D1 pass from me.

Wagons on Awa and SA aren't relevant enough, so it's RR, or, idk, Robz for instance. Nobody else did something scummy in my eyes.

Space, Ichi? Do you prefer lynching me or lynching gkrieg?

You, actually. You've settled into a meta that lets you off the hook far too much in D1, but this game has been a poor showing even for you. I mean, I understand that D1s are really hard when there's so little to go on, and I've struggled in most games to work out how to say things and interact with people, but I think it makes people into better players (more fun to play with, as well as more nuanced in their play) when they learn to interact and offer reads and stuff more naturally in D1. So if we stop with the tacit approval for you for clamming up so much in the early game, maybe you'll come out of your shell some more.

Of course, last time I remember gkrieg living too long in a game was because he was scum and got me mis lynched, and the time before that was because he was town and got me mis lynched. So I may yet regret this this sentiment...

He spoke a lot at the start of M90. Like, he derailed all possible reads-related discussions with set-up talk :-P He's a ridiculously strong player in the analytical later game, though.

He's actually right in that there's not a lot of alignment-indicative stuff going on, and gkreig is the only one who's said anything really noteworthy.

i thought this as well, and initially i thought scum knew the set of PRs from the addon, but there's two options for each one. narrowing it down lets on to other interacting PRs. i think that calam as a pr would care more about that noise than holding himself accountable

I explained my thought process behind the traitor thing.  Do you really think I would be that stupid as the actual traitor?

There is nothing else in the case against me as far as I can tell.

None! Some predisposition to not lynch the most active movers and shakers of the game. But there is no one that has behaved in a way that I think they wouldn't as scum. I guess this game has been somewhat devoid of emotional outbursts and people strongly disagreeing with other, I guess those are where I usually make my reads. So little voting and wagons too, hard to find material for reads.

Schadd defended me earlier, or at least tried to stop my wagon from growing. Appreciated that, but not sure what to think of it. Schadd, do you think I'm town?

It doesn't seem like an eezee lynch to me, and it's never useless to lynch scum.

"Well, everyone, We have reached a true dilemma, but I can solve it for us."

Everyone looked startled as gkrieg13 began to talk.  Slowly everyone listened to what he had to say, but then gkrieg started going off on this tangent about a treehouse.  It was going to be the biggest and best treehouse.  Large enough to fit everyone!  But best of all, it would be home to his trophy from the Ultimate xkcd Comic Strip of the Century Award contest.  Gkrieg13 was confident his comic would win. 

"I mean, look at it.  It's the most amazing comic (https://xkcd.com/212/)"

(http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/brain.png)

Everyone else took a glance at the comic.  Then at each other.  Then at the comic.  Then at each other.  Finally someone spoke, "I....I don't remember this comic being in the contest."  Others looked back at the comic.  Suddenly they realized it must have slipped in during the confusing early rounds.  Immediately they threw his comic out.  It had to be done.  gkrieg13 walked away, muttering something about a treehouse.....


Thread still locked.  Day will begin in about an hour.

Everyone was relieved to have found one of the people that had been manipulating votes and trying to rig the contest.  Unfortunately, there were still 10 comics left, which meant something was still wrong.  Stress levels were high.  Before anyone could stop it, one of the nominations just exploded.  Or did it?  The statisticians couldn't decide (https://xkcd.com/1132/).

At the very least, he should claim whether or not we're in setup #5 because that's the only one where he might actually not want to claim if he really is town, and scum already knows the setup anyway.

Also if we're not in setup #5, he should just claim his full role right away, because scum will basically want to kill any non-BP roles that are left regardless of what they are.

So let's look at a list of possible counterclaims. The following roles should claim now if they exist:

- the 1-shot BP townie

- the Jailkeeper

Huh, I can't find a page on it either. Is Psychologist the one where you can query a person and get to know if they can kill? But that it gets confused if they actually have performed a kill?

And when you say that you received no result, do you mean that the response you got implies your role was blocked, rather than that Robz doesn't have a killing role?

Looking at D1 in the light of "Mafia knows Traitor" (I think Eevee's chances of lying are slim; scum would have claimed another role here).

Starting at the point where gkrieg first posts.

vote: WW for being a traitor

Only mafia can know traitor in some setups... vote: gkrieg
Townie post. Comes 5 minutes after gkrieg's post.

Eevee (assumed town for this reread) is the first to defend gkrieg. That will open the way for scum to support Eevee's argument.

I did not think gkrieg was breadcrumbing traitor, and if he was, maybe he's town and wants to screw with mafia. So this is a total null thing that does not matter.
This is a total scummy thing that does matter.

schadd and Awaclus post without actually saying something about the incident. I rather thnk that scum would feel compelled to comment, so mild town points.

Yeah. gkrieg thing is weird. It doesn't feel scum-weird to me though.
This is not that great.

Spacey is trying to move discussion to Robz' comment on the situation rather than gkrieg himself, which is also scummy.

schadd goes on to defend gkrieg a bit. I don't like.

LaLight then starts his "gkrieg is too scummy to be scum" thing. It's an angle that is kind of difficult to play for scum, but it is still defending gkrieg.

Space does SK-hunting and wonders if gkrieg is the Serial Killer. Which is an idea that scum, knowing that he actually is the Traitor, is somewhat less likely to have.

Robz continues to push away from gkrieg, votes for Spacey and supports LaLight's reasoning. All of that rings alarm bells.

Awaclus also goes for Spacey rather than gkrieg, as does schadd. Okay, I think definite scum among schadd/Awaclus/Robz.

Things are moving away from gkrieg now. That's less interesting. I keep finding myself trying to analyze gkrieg's posting, but well he doesn't know anything.

schadd votes for gkrieg. That's a town thing to do. Scum is just happy that people forgot about gkrieg.

You guys sure are trigger-happy. I would lynch gkrieg, LaLight, Eevee, maybe RR.

Eevee seems beter than LaLight right now. Vote: Eevee
could i maybe convince you to sway over to gkrieg without pointing out any examples of why you should do so?
Also this post is super townie.

Vote Count 1.gkrieg

Eevee (4): Ichimaru Gin, Awaclus, Roadrunner, gkrieg13
gkrieg13 (3): Calamitas, schadd, faust
Calamitas (3): SpaceAnemone, Eevee, Robz888
RR (1): LaLight

vote: eevee
That's super, super scummy. Vote: gkreig
RR votes for gkrieg. The reasoning is really bad and it could well be bussing, so I'm not sure if this is town or scum. But he does turn the major wagon from Eevee to gkrieg, so I'm ending up on light town.

scum!gkrieg doesn't make mistakes like that (sorry for the crap assumption, faust)
LaLight continues to defend gkrieg.

Vote: schadd

(at least till I decide whether voting for gkrieg is a strong idea)
I don't feel too good about this.

Unvote
I'll check in later to place a decent vote
Okay earlier gkrieg was "super super scummy", but now it's not a decent vote anymore? This makes RR scummier again.

Vote: gkrieg

Definitely bed time soon, though hopefully I'll check back in a little while, with the possibility of phone-posting when I should be sleeping...
Meanwhile Spacey moves to town territory.

Out of Calamitas and gkrieg, I prefer Calamitas actually. I think it would have been pretty important to claim what role he is so that he could get counterclaimed, but now it's just this magical shield that absolutely prevents us from lynching him with no way to verify anything, which is suspicious.
That's pretty bad. I mean I get the sentiment. But lynching a PR is still bad. Plus, why does Awaclus even explain his reads here?

I'm less excited about gktieg than I was before and I guess I'm a bit more excited about schadd.
I have to go in a few, so I'm gonna vote: Eevee and see what happens.
More scumminess from RR.

I'm here.
Town reads? Scum reads? How long will you be around for?
Want to vote for: Eevee
Maybe: schadd, space, LaLight, gkrieg
No: faust, Awaclus, Robz, Calamitas

gkrieg was right about the Eevee wagon. I've rethought and have a gut feeling about him. That's all I've got.

I will be around til deadline. But may only check in every little while.
That's also not great.

schadd also defends Eevee. schadd is like super town.

In the end, there is movement towards schadd, but it should be clear to everybody that there's not enough people around to lynch. I think scum's only shot at that point was to try and get Eevee lynched. The fact that both LaLight and Ichi did not try that warrants some town points.

PPE: 3

Mafia knows Traitor is good for us; makes wagon analysis way more useful.

It's excellent for us, because it's not just the wagons -- the whole thing about gkreig's early traitor hinting was like half of the D1 conversation... and now we know that two of the people commenting there were scums in the know :-)

Conclusions:

Awaclus and Robz are scummy, but I think there's only 1 scum among them.

RR is scummy too.

schadd and Spacey are towny, and Eevee is IC until we have a counterclaim.

Leaving Ichi and LaLight, who are sort of middlish with signs in either direction.

Well Robz pushed Awaclus a fair bit during D1, and he's not usually the type for D1 bussing.

Post by: Eevee on January 21, 2017, 10:12:25 am
reason for robz?
Didn't think he'd perform the kill if he was scum since he is a common target for power roles, also he is one of the strongest players so information on him would be higher utility.

I didn't realize scum would inherit the jailkeeper, makes sense they'd block one of me and Calamitas and kill the other.

No result implies either Robz or me was jailed.

Super agree with faust's reread analysis.

Tentatively looking at Robz and Awaclus the hardest, followed by RR.

Post by: Eevee on January 21, 2017, 10:19:57 am

I still have to re-read, so I'm not actually sure who's an IC and who's not at this point. Sorry! Obviously people not on the wagon are where we should look.

I will follow the order of operations posted in the setup when resolving night actions. So yes, strongman occurs before commuter

Order of Operations: (roles listed earlier in parenthesis will be performed simultaneously)
Modifiers (Ninja/Strongman)
Commuter
Blocking (Jailkeeper, Roleblocking)

It's not really a question of "occuring before" IMO. And I am not sure how it makes sense that a modifier is "performed". But I guess that discussion does not belong here.

about that wagon yesterday, hm?


calamitas: is town. the fact that he got nk'd in spite of not wanting to reveal what his PR was specifically (which we now know was indeed because it makes him harder to kill) might mean something.


me: i already said i was town, a while ago. i had what i felt was a pretty hard read on gkrieg (and, to be fair, since he pointed it out to me, i'll point out to him where it came from (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16147.msg645233#msg645233), and i think being traitor maximizes how scummy you look unless you just try to hardtown d1 at least) and tunneled him a lot. i think it's fair to say i was a significant driving force behind the lynch


faust: voted gkrieg because i told him to, but we both know that's how it works. i figured if i saw it, he would see it, and that both of us know that telling gkrieg what he's doing wrong is not the way to lynch him d1


sa: i kinda don't get. i was lightly scumreading them by the end of the day, but scum voting gkrieg and not making a show of it in mafia knows traitor just seems silly. but at the same time i don't really see why theyspace, si vous plait, why vote gkrieg?


lalight and ig are where i think we can't read into it anymore. maybe lalight could have feasibly prevented the lynch somehow, probably not ig.


off wagon: i told rr he was town, at the time mostly because of 656 (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16729.msg671506#msg671506). rn i think it was actually useless


vote: roadrunner

faust-Dunno. He duped me pretty good in that recent newbie game where I was the babysitter, and he looks like that here. Of course, he only duped me because he acted so towny. That being said, I think a faust lynch wouldn't be the worst thing we could do.

I think you're on the same team as schadd. I think schadd is scummy. Therefore...

But your vote is odd. If schadd is scum and you're scum I can see you finding him scummy, but I can't really see you nailing his coffin closed.

At this point I'm assuming scahdd is scum, and like I said, it looked like bussing to me.

However, if schadd is town, I don't see you being bold enough (with one of your scumbuddies already dead) to build his wagon like this.

schadd is the towniest player around by a wide margin (well, excluding Eevee).

my second post was largely a joke; for whatever reason i can remember pps calling himself obvtown for the dumb hammer thing in m87, but i can't find anything other than this
PPS - made that commitment so would lynch if forced. Otherwise IC. Confused why not obvtown to everyone.


Yeah I'm not buying schadd's bid for IC status, and I've also just found his play sort of bizarre all game.

Vote: schadd
i don't see why either of these are scummy


That being said, I think a faust lynch wouldn't be the worst thing we could do.
if you lost your hedge trimmers, you can just borrow one of ours. we're good neighbors.

Yeah, given a lack of counterclaim for Eevee, we can be pretty sure we're in the scenario on Row 4 of the setup grid: 1-shot Commuter, Psychologist, Detective, Mafia Knows Traitor.

That's why I think RR looks so scummy, because he sidled off gkrieg's wagon at a really bad moment.

I agree with faust that schadd looks towny (though he's also looking odd and schaddish), so I'd much rather see people moving their votes from him to RR.

When scum protects their partner, the hope is of course that they succeed and no one gets to see that they were defending a red person. It only becomes problematic when you try and fail.

Well, you'd have been gambling.. the chance to recruit gkrieg would have been quite tempting, no?

Also, you might just not have considered the fact that PRs outing themselves would constrain the setup as much as is has done so quickly.

I wasn't 'protecting' gkrieg. If you reread, you'll learn that I was happy to have him lynched, but I was more happy to have Eevee lynched, and I thought Eevee's lynch would be more likely to go through.

It's always about everyone if you're paranoid :-P I assumed you'd formed opinions on the other people, even if you've presented it now as just a choice between gkrieg and Eevee. Like, where did you really feel like the scums were at that point?

Actually protecting the traitor is quite a bit better than protecting your normal partner, as you can try to play the "mafia might not have known who he is" card afterwards.

Ah, sorry! That got a bit lost in my excitement over LL's arrival! (C'est "s'il vous plaît", n'est-ce pas?)

Anyway, in mid-D1, I was mostly influenced by LL's reluctance to lynch gkrieg based on gkreig's recent meta of always dying D1 or N1 -- I'd feel quite guilty about being part of the mob denying him from fun. For most of my games, I've ended up scumreading him even when he's town, so I was trying hard not to fall into that trap this game. That meant trying to see the town motivation for what he'd said, even though on the face of it, him mentioning the traitor in his first post did seem like an unfortunately obvious breadcrumb. Anyway, I came around by the end of the day, thankfully :-)

Title: Re: M92: xkcd Mafia - Day 2
Post by: LaLight on January 23, 2017, 06:55:22 pm

schadd and Awaclus post without actually saying something about the incident. I rather think that scum would feel compelled to comment, so mild town points.

schadd goes on to defend gkrieg a bit. I don't like.

Awaclus also goes for Spacey rather than gkrieg, as does schadd. Okay, I think definite scum among schadd/Awaclus/Robz.

schadd votes for gkrieg. That's a town thing to do. Scum is just happy that people forgot about gkrieg.

You guys sure are trigger-happy. I would lynch gkrieg, LaLight, Eevee, maybe RR.

Eevee seems beter than LaLight right now. Vote: Eevee
could i maybe convince you to sway over to gkrieg without pointing out any examples of why you should do so?
Also this post is super townie.

Vote: schadd

(at least till I decide whether voting for gkrieg is a strong idea)
I don't feel too good about this.

schadd also defends Eevee. schadd is like super town.

In the end, there is movement towards schadd, but it should be clear to everybody that there's not enough people around to lynch. I think scum's only shot at that point was to try and get Eevee lynched. The fact that both LaLight and Ichi did not try that warrants some town points.

This is everything I've found about schadd in your reread post. And okay, now I understand. But still this doesn't make schadd supertownie if Eevee is scum, I guess.

But there was another thing in your reread that caught my eye. Awaclus explaining his reads.
I will believe that schadd is town for now.

Yeah, I agree that faust and schadd look pretty towny, but not actually IC. Eevee seems like 97% IC to me. My suspicion falls on Robz (for not having said more now he's back), Awaclus (for being generally a bit scummy) and LL for being suspicious of all the towny people. And anyone else in the game for not being memorable right now, though I'm sleepy (Aha: Ichi!). RR just keeps seeming scummy in his evasiveness with my questions this afternoon, so my vote is staying on him.

Amusing fact: LL and I are sitting about 1.5m away from each other in my kitchen, unable to see each other's laptop screens, communicating only through the forum :-P
tell him i said hi
I wonder, is doing that already forbidden communication about the game?

I still haven't delivered the "hi", just in case :-P I feel like in general it would be mostly okay, but as it gets closer to being real-time communication in parallel with things going on in the thread, then tone, body language etc might become a factor.

Hey everyone! LL and Fargo and I have been exploring Stratford-upon-Avon all day, having a lovely time :-) Now we're in a cafe waiting for our train home, and I find that nothing has happened all day... where are you all?

Please post your excuses, or, y'know, maybe some reads and actual game stuff!? :-)

Okay, I did it! I re-read the whole game. Most of it anyway. Did some skimming.

Mostly, I came away even more convinced that schadd is scum. Look, here's the thing, first he defends gkrieg, and then he votes gkrieg when we are basically moving away from the discussion about gkrieg's traitor breadcrumb, and then he never moves his vote, ever. This is textbook vote-for-your-partner-when-your-partner-is-safe.

Subsequently, schadd was gone most of the day. Unfortunately for him, after the Eevee and Calamitas claims, it so happened that schadd himself was presented as the alternative to gkrieg. Which is a terrible spot for scum, and it's the reason gkrieg went down, I suspect.

Other explanations--the scum team is RR and Awaclus, basically--strike me as way too overly simple.

So yeah, I'm comfortable voting schadd. He committed to the light bus, the bus that doesn't lynch a partner, and he got screwed. That's what it looks like to me.

but let's look at lalight.


there's something about the way he's voted & talked about other people in this game that seems wrong. i would say that he tends to have more biting and effortful criticisms as town. eg:


M88 (spoilers, he's town)
one (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16392.msg651357#msg651357) and two (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16392.msg651499#msg651499) and three (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16392.msg652141#msg652141) and four (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16392.msg652334#msg652334) and five (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16392.msg652578#msg652578) and six (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16392.msg653200#msg653200) (note "you should")


M86 (spoliers, not): more vague, hedgy, impersonal, agreeing with other people
one (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16147.msg633567#msg633567) and two (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16147.msg634199#msg634199) and three (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16147.msg635321#msg635321) (kinda counter-example, but this is like his only scumread the whole game) and four (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16147.msg636088#msg636088) and five (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16147.msg636357#msg636357) and six (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16147.msg636572#msg636572) (unexplained) and seven (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16147.msg636775#msg636775) and eight (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16147.msg636796#msg636796) and nine (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16147.msg636864#msg636864)

another thing that's i think a lot more reminiscent of M86 than M88 that also pops up in this game is lalight talking about himself


M88
largely absent, a couple (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16392.msg652504#msg652504) brief moments (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16392.msg652329#msg652329) where it pointed to another thing

and a other thing
vote: gkrieg13. Too hard to get his lynch. But if he's town, I'm sorry and I'm gonna blame myself to death. L-1
this is just a thing that doesn't make sense to me as either alignment; why would you want the blame for that? esp. 20 minutes before deadline with like nobody there. it kinda almost makes sense as scum, like, you want to imply that you also want credit if he's scum, but that ploy would break open really fast because the PRs were gonna claim, like, immediately and mafia knows traitor would become apparent. so who knows.

This is textbook vote-for-your-partner-when-your-partner-is-safe.
i still think that wanting scum to think you're the traitor isn't alignment indicative. not moving the vote is also textbook having-a-pretty-hard-scumread


Subsequently, schadd was gone most of the day. Unfortunately for him, after the Eevee and Calamitas claims, it so happened that schadd himself was presented as the alternative to gkrieg. Which is a terrible spot for scum, and it's the reason gkrieg went down, I suspect.
uh, i was pretty clearly there right around both of the claims.


you're also preferring "this is what tends to theoretically happen with scum wagons" to just looking at the stuff that happened. i was "presented" when eevee voted me with a question mark after it. as well, after eevee claimed, precisely two people that weren't me or gkrieg posted


So yeah, I'm comfortable voting schadd. He committed to the light bus, the bus that doesn't lynch a partner, and he got screwed. That's what it looks like to me.
hey, remember that time that i got faust to join the wagon? i guess it might seem like i didn't expect him to do it, but that only makes sense under the assumption that i don't get faust

No. This is just plain wrong analysis. By the time the schadd lynch was proposed, there weren't even enough people around to make it happen.

Oh. Unfortunately I don't have much time to reread all these games but that really looks like you took my posts out of context (not telling about that I evolved actually through games). That looks plain wrong...

For example, you can't actually compare my posts from D3 of one game and D1 of another game (this one for instance). I am playing much differently there.

Excuses to gkrieg were 100% sincere.

I actually need to plan some time to follow those links of yours.. LL and Fargo are off in Grenwich today and I'm in the office, but there's too much work to spend long on the game!

I feel very towny about you based on the amount of effort you're putting in to keep things going, and on making the case. Can I suggest further homework? :-) What are your reads on Awaclus, Robz and Ichi? Do you feel like we have any clear partnerships in {Awaclus, Ichi, LL, Robz, RR}?

i uh have to read those people. awaclus is kinda townfully stubborn (but i dunno if that's a consistent tell), robz is doing a lot of stuff that would look bad from other people, ichi has a ton of commenting/narrating gamestate and few opinions

I disagree. Robz defends LL only because the case comes from schadd, whom he supposedly scumreads. It wouldn't be consistent for him to agree with a case that his top scum read makes, and scum!Robz is definitely concerned with consistency.

Hmm... I'd agree that second-order partner analysis makes for more work than first-order scum-hunts, but schadd has just demonstrated he's got enough time and concentration to put some quite comprehensive effort into this :-) With Eevee as an IC already, and with several others looking really townie, there are only actually 10 possible pairings between the people I suggested - fewer to consider if he's got a comfortable enough town read on any of them.

It's a simple explanation because Awaclus and RR were like the only off-wagon people (I think?). I think it's too simple, though. Awaclus having it in for me doesn't really have anything to do with anything. I don't think finding me scummy is a scumtell, here or in general.

Faust, have YOU re-read? Your faith in schadd didn't waver?
My townread on schadd is largely based upon my reread.

I feel very towny about you based on the amount of effort you're putting in to keep things going, and on making the case. Can I suggest further homework? :-) What are your reads on Awaclus, Robz and Ichi? Do you feel like we have any clear partnerships in {Awaclus, Ichi, LL, Robz, RR}?

I think D2 is a bit too early for partner talk.

Hmm... I'd agree that second-order partner analysis makes for more work than first-order scum-hunts, but schadd has just demonstrated he's got enough time and concentration to put some quite comprehensive effort into this :-) With Eevee as an IC already, and with several others looking really townie, there are only actually 10 possible pairings between the people I suggested - fewer to consider if he's got a comfortable enough town read on any of them.
It's also dangerous because with this, people tend to forget that the "really townie" people are actually nowhere near cleared. This is basically how we won NM9.

Post by: Eevee on January 26, 2017, 10:03:31 am
Okay, rereading.

First up, events surrounding gkrieg's breadcrumb:

Faust comes off the towniest. First to react, immediately spells out why it's scummy, is pretty relentless and asks great interrogative questions.

Schadd votes for calamitas apparently for voting for gkrieg, I would say that's slightly scummy.

Robz says it's not an alignment tell whatsoever, this is scummy.

SA doesn't really comment on the gkrieg issue, but says robz's posts was the scummiest in this debacle which is scummy as well, seems like he is trying to divert action away from gkrieg. Makes it less likely they are scum with Robz, though, I would say.

schadd reads faust as town from this, which I would think is towny except only scum knows how right faust was about gkrieg, so I actually think this is somewhat scummy.

LaLight thinks that gkrieg cant be scum because that was scummy. Scum points for him as well! (It's so easy to deal these out from my ivory tower of IC'ness, sorry if I'm being obnoxious.) On reread I do think LL's comment "Exactly 0 alignment-indicative events happened." is towny, despite being totally incorrect. Just strikes to me as something town, not scum would say. It's pretty amusing I see it that way given in the very next post in the game I voted for LL.

Robz agrees with LL that gkrieg's scummy behavior means he is probably town. Scum points! But, you know, town makes misreads, it's not egregious.

Faust, Robz, Awaclus and schadd start a wagon on SA after they theorize about a SK. This is pretty interesting, as it now looks like there is scum at least on one side of the argument. I would think this makes SA look more towny, as many of their potential partners if scum would be in on this wagon. LL says he doesn't like the wagon. faust abandons the wagon either after it grew to uncomfortable size (just covering everything i see, i do think faust is town), or because he was satisfied with SA's explanation of mafia being able to recruit the traitor.

Fwiw, at this point, I see absolutely no contributions from either RR or Awaclus until this point, except for some votes that don't really seem to mean anything on their own. Ichi and Robz have also been very quiet. RR now says he doesn't believe gkrieg to be the traitor.

Nothing's happening, RR even says it feels like RVS still. Robz tries to wake us up by proposing an Awaclus lynch, Awaclus suggests SA instead, SA says Awaclus is fine for them since they were torn between schadd and Awaclus anyways. LL votes for Awaclus as well (again, some town points for Awaclus since many of the potential partners are voting for him now).

Robz abandons the Awaclus wagon at L-2 to vote for Calamitas (who has been very quiet, but I think has posted towny things, although I have the hindsight of knowing gkrieg was the traitor, so I can see why Robz would think differently).

SA makes the point about LL repeating how he is town a lot. Scum probably wouldn't say this about their partner, right?

schadd says he still wants to stay on SA (game is stalling hardcore at this point)

faust really wants to lynch me for empty postign, ichi sheeps. SA makes I think a reasonable argument that while it's true my posts aren't the meatiest, the same could be said for most people in the game. Awaclus sheeps the wagon as well. LL says they don't see me as scum and vote faust for looking for easy mislynch.  Robz makes the same point than LL did about me not being any worse than many others, says he disagrees with lynching me. Awa says they found my partner in Robz. RR says I'm towny and that he'd be willing to vote for faust for pushing a strained case against me. Robz votes for RR. Awaclus says that faust's case is good and that there are also other reasons to think I'm scum. Pretty convenient for him that he never saw it fit to divulge those. I remember not pouncing on this because I though the argument would be stronger if someone else made it, but how did we let him get away with saying that and never giving the reasons?

LL votes for awaclus.


Got up to post 378 (noting for myself), got to go now. I'll finish up and vote later today, I'll try to get it done sooner later than later.

This is totally not proofread, mostly just notes for myself really. Hope it's somehow legible (but faust's reread post is probably a lot better).

He's given up because he's probably lost anyway--scum don't come back from Day 1 scum lynches. That's what it looks like to me, anyway.

And he might be the lynch. I know you're on a crusade to mislynch here, but the day isn't over yet.

We need to concentrate our efforts!

I don't think Calamitas is a bad option. As far as I can tell his only read this far is that gkrieg is scummy for the traitor thing.

Can't say I would oppose many lynches to be honest, being one of the leading wagons. I don't really have any town reads, it feels like scum is doing well this far.
Calamitas died for our sins.

Title: Re: M92: xkcd Mafia - Day 2
Post by: Eevee on January 26, 2017, 02:08:13 pm
Finally fully caught up! Never falling behind again, until next time.

Here are my reads from a full reread. If something unfortunate were to happen to me, please consider these tomorrow! Feeling somewhat confident on them, especially the town reads.

Townreads, starting with the strongest:

faust - just very towny all around. Hats off if this is a scum performance, although if anyone I guess it would be faust.

SA - The gkrieg vote at the deadline was so super towny. Can't believe scum would ever do that, what do you guys think? The post is linked above.

LL - I think in hindsight the play looks very towny, both the voting history and the general feeling I'm getting.


End of town reads.

Ichi - I'm 100% super total null on, even after a reread. That's not good, but I guess this would be more of a PoE lynch.

schadd - Is very interesting - I could see Robz faking that case as scum, but if he is town, I don't think it's half bad. I think he is definitely, definitely giving himself too much credit for "getting gkrieg lynched". I think SA's vote on him was significantly townier than anything he did. Schadd, do you disagree with that?

Robz - So, looks bad with the voting history, the case is surprisingly good which goes in line with genius scumRobz. This would be an interesting flip, at least.

Awaclus:
I guess I would go for anyone other than myself to ensure a lynch, but I'm not super excited about schadd.
This was towny from him - for scum Awaclus in that situation with gkrieg being the main alternative pushing for schadd more strongly would make sense. Alas, his day 1 voting history is terrible, tunneling me all day and staying off the scum wagon. I think it's my preferred lynch, the defense hasn't seem genuine to me, but there is the fact that I tend to think that town blames themselves more for the heat if they are getting pressured, and I don't think Awaclus would probably do that anyways, so I shouldn't put much stock to my read of his defense.

RR: Also a scummy voting record and lack of any towny things.

Damn I hope I didn't forget anyone after a full reread.
Title: Re: M92: xkcd Mafia - Day 2
Post by: Eevee on January 26, 2017, 02:12:58 pm
I will super vehemently oppose the lynch of any of my town reads, and I don't think schadd should be lynched before Robz probably (he would start looking a lot scummier if Robz was town, though). Ichi is not so scummy that I think he is our best bet, although he totally fits the intheshadows-scum - bill.

So, I'm left with RR, Awaclus and Robz. RR not being awake is a reasonable explanation, and he does get this suspicion in every game, seems pretty clear he's also been very busy lately.

So, Robz or Awaclus. A quick note here: Despite me thinking they are the two most likely scum, I think it's extremely unlikely they'd be scum together. So whichever we lynch, the other should get HEAVY scrutiny tomorrow, I think.

Awaclus's behavior totally matches someone who realizes they are in deep deep waters, and (correctly from my perspective) identifies Robz as the scummiest looking other player, but I think the hail mary against schadd is also totally what scumRobz would try.

Even though I think it's useful information on schadd if Robz dies, I still think Awaclus fits the scum narrative just a little better, so

Vote: Awaclus it will be.

Interested to hear what the people I read as town think about my reads (and others too of course, I just don't promise to trust you as much).

I think he is definitely, definitely giving himself too much credit for "getting gkrieg lynched". I think SA's vote on him was significantly townier than anything he did. Schadd, do you disagree with that?
if he could fake the case, then how is it good? i mean, i pointed out a few things that were factually incorrect about it, and there isn't really much i can say beyond that. does 510 (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16729.500) look like a bus?


i can believe that i'm giving myself too much credit i guess. i showed pretty continual interest in the lynch starting at the point that i voted him, but i also talked about it to a larger extent in the qt that i'm keeping. another thing is that i was scrutinizing him, in particular, after M86 (he was my top townread for most of the game)


awaclus at the very least has to start be interesting. imagine it, like, instead of claiming at l-1, you start posting any reads and pointing things out that aren't obvious/impersonal


i'd still be happy to lynch lalight, as you might notice. i went back and looked at it just now, and it still makes sense to me (i was surety worried that i was getting some confirmation bias after looking at lalight for like an hour)

I mostly agree with Eevee's reads, but wanted to comment on this:

faust - just very towny all around. Hats off if this is a scum performance, although if anyone I guess it would be faust.

Thats not something that had occurred to me, but now that you mention it I can't get it out my head, especially in light of:

He's given up because he's probably lost anyway--scum don't come back from Day 1 scum lynches. That's what it looks like to me, anyway.
I once intentionally drove a lynch on my partner on D1 and this made me win the game.

I think it would be pretty insane to actually lynch faust here after the way Day 1 played out, but let's not totally forget about him, because that's pretty much the only way for town to blow it at this point: award auto-town status to people and never re-consider it. My decision to permanently acquit Axxle in Mafia 40 still haunts me.

Feeling towny on schadd after that response. I think it could be a bus possibly, it's pretty non-committal as far as bus's go, but I agree that it's clearly a towny post, and you do deserve town credit for pushing gkrieg in that situation and in general. I also agree about Awaclus - I can't imagine he'd give out less information than he does now if he was under serious danger of being lynched.


@Robz

Of course we aren't lynching faust today, but it's good to keep in mind of course. I would say it starts becoming more of a possibility the more nights he survives. Really nothing to worry about yet.

Incidentally, casting a shadow of doubt over even the towniest of our players is also what scumRobz would need to do in order to pull this out.

For me personally Robz looks like looking for a mislynch. Schadd, then Awaclus. I don't remember scum!Robz tunnelling much, but nevertheless this is quite antitown from my perspective

I don't agree. I've never seen him literally just post "bump to keep me from being modkilled" a bunch of times.

For me personally Robz looks like looking for a mislynch. Schadd, then Awaclus. I don't remember scum!Robz tunnelling much, but nevertheless this is quite antitown from my perspective

How do you know schadd/Awaclus would be mislynches? I don't really see what's anti-town about trying to get the people I tihnk are scummy lynched. I can hardly be said to be tunneling them. Faust is certainly "tunneling" me more than I'm tunneling anyone else. It's not anti-town.

Fwiw, I read this defense as more towny coming from him. ScumRobz doesn't give up, I think he would totally want to try convince me somehow if he was scum. I think he'd see it as a fun challenge.

TownRobz I could totally see thinking "Damn it, I wound up in an unfortunate wagon position, and I can where they are coming from. This sucks. Oh well, town is still in good shape even if they lynch me I guess."

Well sure, but please don't belittle my efforts to make sure my reads are actually paid attention to, post-flip. The most infuriating thing is to have your reads forgotten about.

TownRobz I could totally see thinking "Damn it, I wound up in an unfortunate wagon position, and I can where they are coming from. This sucks. Oh well, town is still in good shape even if they lynch me I guess."

It's that, and I know I will survive tonight because I'm suspicious, and then we'll spend another day arguing about whether I'm scum. I probably have to die at some point this game, I'm just in that pool, it's not the worst thing if it's now.

What I'm more worried about is dying, being ignored post death, Eevee could be nightkilled, and then some super sneaky scum team can run the table. And I think that's a legitimate worry, so obviously it's better if I don't get lynched now, but if you do lynch me, remember my reads.

Yeah, the scummy way he comes off the gkreig wagon to look for a "decent" place to put his vote is what rings major scum bells for me. He's also careful to point out that he unvoted at #639, but does so in a very unsure-sounding way, which I read as him desperately wanting not to draw attention to the fact that he really does know he's removed his vote from his buddy.

That's pretty bad reasoning, because it depends on RR being scum, which may have an assigned probability of maybe 50% if you have a decently strong scumread. In the other 50% though, the statement above, even if technically true, has no relevance to the current game state.

done rereading; his case on me and other stuff today doesn't feel like when he's town, really. i think he's either pretty solidly reasoned out, or he doesn't bother saying reasoning, whereas here he did a bunch of one-post analyses that kinda stunk, and a case that also seems kind of out of character from M50 and M45. this was enough to offset the town inkling i had on him.

The debate continued, desperate to clear the air and get the contest back under way.  However, progress was difficult.  So instead of looking at the nominators, they decided to look at some of the nominations to see if they could collectively kick one or two out and hopefully find a way forward.  They looked at one, then another, then a third, then came upon this one (https://xkcd.com/1613/):

(http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/the_three_laws_of_robotics.png)

A debate soon began over whether Azimov's stories could be improved upon had he actually created the killbot hellscape rather than the balanced world he created.  Some in the room were totally for the killbot hellscape, where other's simply enjoyed Asimov's world.  There were a few outliers (there always are) who wished that Asimov had written about the frustrating world situation.  In the end, there could be no consensus, only consternation.  The Grand Organizer came out and made a decision: "Since this comic has created such divisiveness, we have no choice but to throw it out.  We can only hope that it was submitted by one of those mischievous fiends who are attempting to subvert our competition."

To the great relief of everyone in the competition, it was!  As soon as the announcement was made, Robz flew out the door and ran away screaming something unintelligible about the unjust treatment of his comic and that he knew no one would understand so the only just and proper thing to do was rig the competition.  or something like that.  No one really thought about too much, except to breathe a sigh of relief that they were one step closer to bringing the competition to a close, and naming the one true Ultimate xkcd Comic Strip of the Century.


Please remember to submit your night actions!  Day 3 will begin in about 20 hours.  Or so.

The mood was significantly better.  Everyone was getting a really good feel about the contest moving forward without interference.  Well, not everyone.  In fact, a janitor discovered a time machine in the closet presumably to send the contest back to the beginning and try all over again to rig the contest.  Eevee wasn't that worried.  In fact, he was completely confident that even if the time machine worked, it wouldn't *actually* work as displayed by his submission (https://xkcd.com/1203/):

(http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/time_machines.png)

Unfortunately, after pointing out this fatal flaw, it wasn't long until Eevee and his submission disappeared.  No one was quite sure how it happened, but everyone assumed that it was a desperate act of malevolence from group of conspirators to complete their goal of winning the contest.

Eevee was killed in the night!  He was a town psychologist!


I hope no one minds, starting the day just a bit early


Day 3 Start!

Haha, this is brilliant :-)

We have a guaranteed town win now!

I am the detective! I got a guilty result on RR the first night, which was why I was tunneling him so much yesterday: I wanted him out of the way in order to force the other scum to do the NK, since I can only detect people correctly if they'very actually performed the kill.

Even if you don't believe me, you can lynch me tonight and RR tomorrow after my flip, and we still win :-) Though obviously a flawless set of lynches would be much cooler :-)

Well done for the people who voted for Robz in order to push that through... the fact I knew for certain that RR was scum was muddying that one for me. Good bussing there, RR!

Anyway, vote: RR, everyone.

vote: rr

(That's L-1, BTW!)

I think faust may have noticed that I was detective, and was trying to advise. Or at least, he was clearly trying to advise someone, I guess!

I was actually strongly tempted to out myself yesterday because I trusted that town should pull through with 2/3 of the scums outed in the first two days. I hadn't expected it to be so tricky to persuade others to vote for RR, though -- my N1 re-read, following gkrieg's flip, made things look pretty bad for RR. He'd seemed to be the right person to check on N1, because I assumed his scum-buddy would have been one of the people under more consistent suspicion, who wouldn't want to be caught performing a kill. I guess I didn't have time to put forward a very comprehensive case for others' reading pleasure, though :-(

Eventually, I figured staying hidden was marginally better because if RR wasn't the RB and we lynched him, the lone third scum would still have the power to negate both PRs at once if I outed myself beyond a doubt. I also thought that with my unwavering pursuit of RR, the scums would know I was onto them, but that if I died then the rest of you would have RR pegged... or at least, I hope that's the case!

Nah, I didn't really look for Detective signs.

It's kind of dangerous territory to not out yourself with a guilty result. I mean it was likely that Eevee would die, but really the only way for scum to win this was to do some Detective-hunting with their nightkill. Leaving the Detective alive would always have caused a PoE-loss for scum.

I think we need to lynch Robz now. Our top proirity today should be to not out the Detective. Any other lynch might do just that.

What a trainwreck! Well we were totally dead after the gkrieg lynch, so it was hard to even come up with a strategy after that. I thought the only prayer of a chance we had was probably to do something that made absolutely no sense, like lynch schadd or something, so that the following day we could lynch Awaclus. Of course all the criticism I was getting from faust and schadd was entirely valid, I just had to do it anyway.

I felt like I almost evaded getting lynched, but it probably wouldn't have mattered anyway.

In the future I will always cite this game as evidence of my position that lynching scum on Day 1 is so, so, so, so, so important.

I dunno that second post is more indicative of me not being the Detective, because I really was under no threat of being lynched? I thought it was fine to post it anyway, because scum would think I might make that post as the actual detective.

I'd say you're a good MVP choice here. Though Space-A was quite good as well. That's just the thing - in a flawless town win, you're bound to have a couple of strong town performances.

the second post being detective is sorta like how gkrieg's thing was traitor; wanting to get the message across isn't indicative of anything, but thinking to say it makes you seem like the thing. plus, it sorta conveyed the message of "hey, toDay is a done deal you guys, can we shut up and lynch robz real quick" which implies you had an especially strong read

I know! Since my return, I was town in 87 and 91, and mafia in 88, 89, 90, 92, and 93! I've only had one turn as a Vanilla Townie in all those games. Where are your probability gods, now?

I do prefer being scum, though, so I'm not complaining.

The mood was jovial.  They found the last culprit!  One of the contestants had spotted him exploding Calamitas' comic.  Roadrunner was a good sport about it.  He was, after all, just here to have some fun (https://xkcd.com/1158/):

(http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/rubber_sheet.png)

Faust is the MVP!

Special honorable mention goes to SpaceAnemone for their constraint in waiting to reveal their N1 result until D3 sealing the flawless victory, but Faust's consistently good reads throughout the game on gkrieg, Robz, and RR led town to a great victory.
