[MAFIA] RMN: WHEN THEY CRY (TEA PARTY)
Posts
Well damn, maybe I shouldn't have claimed then. I just never saw myself hitting the same target, and thought I could verify several people as town even if I got killed for it. Going to wait and see caves post before I do anything else.

No, maybe you shouldn't have. I already believed you when you said your power needed multiple people to target the same person.
LockeZ
I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

Demonlord, how would you even know that it doesn't show a message? Also I don't know why you think Pianotm is "basically confirmed town" just because a vigilante tried to kill him.
Also Jeroen as much as I appreciate the info I don't think your hand was "forced"
Also Cavedog lol, saying "I ALREADY HAD TOWNREADS ON BOTH OF YOU" like you're the only player here whose opinion actually matters. That's some incredibly honest and from-the-heart narcissism that makes me think you're probably town.

There's another 24 hours still to see what direction the conversation goes, and there's no hammer rule.
I do think my hand was kind of forced too on the claim, because everyone would have been questioning me when lockez didn't get a message the next day. To be honest I wasn't sure what to do there except claim.

I guess you're right. I may have also jumped the gun just a wee bit there.
Demonlord has roleclaimed and Jeroen has confirmed. Scum would bus. Why? Because if one dies and flips scum, then you've got both scum. They're town. Pressing them is counterproductive and detrimental.

Wait, there's no hammer? I thought there was?
here are my notes, organized by player. I'm going to be changing format in how i quote things multiple times during this post. if you have a problem with that send all of your complaints to liberty at brutaltyrant@downunder.com
cap_h
cap_h makes mistakes is his narrative re: other players often (for example, saying that I voted a bunch of people day 1, and that his case on me was 'super strong') but i dont see this as a scumtell because he's pretty consistent in how he does it. like, I think the dude is just making mistakes and not deliberately trying to form scum narratives.
https://rpgmaker.net/forums/topics/23722/?post=847903#post847903
this post and his post afterwords make me feel better about him, plus he is putting some actual effort into the game. I think he's town now.
pianotm
his vote on gourd is...not good. https://rpgmaker.net/forums/topics/23722/?post=847759#post847759 I don't really see it as a scum move though, but I'm less sure about piano than I am about cap_h. and he's put a lot of effort in. when we were playing pandemic mafia, I got a pretty strong scum vibe from him that I'm not feeling here, so I'm gonna say I lean town on him.
tungerman
hasn't made a lot of posts in the thread, but what posts he has made I have liked. i just copied down this one on day 1 and then made no more notes for him.
basically, he tends to make good points. I'd say I lean town on him.
muffle
a lot of muffle's posts are overwrought and overly defensive. it's actually really rare that muffle puts out a scumread on anyone.
https://rpgmaker.net/forums/topics/23722/?post=847820#post847820
"I don't have much to say about Cave, though Cap has a point." excuse me what. cap_h demonstrably did not have a point. this is pretty bad and makes me feel like muffle is just going along with whatever, because, well, she blindly agreed with something that didn't make any sense at all.
that said, i read her reaction to gourd's death, and the guilt and defensiveness therein, as real. so despite all that, i lean town on her. she should make more scumreads though.
yellow magic
i've gone over why he looks bad. that said, he comes out looking better on day 2.
lockez
despite what some hypothesized, i did not care about lockez talking about bold-lettering in PMs and how you should not discuss it. that is unrelated to the following, though.
as i said in the beginning, lockez felt different than he did in his scumgame six months ago. as i also said, that was six months ago.
from the offset, this reason for voting gourd never made any sense, because the things gourd was saying weren't actually reasons to vote someone. Gourd even pointed this out later. I don't like that lockez just left his vote there and never really interacted with gourd again or rebutted him or anything.
he is also posting some really bad ideas. unsure how i feel about him now.
esby
gone over him. nothing has really changed my opinion. unfortunately, his lynch will provide us the least information out of any. if this shit about multiple gunners needing to cooperate is true, well, take him out imo. what the hell yall doing aiming for people like piano and demonlord.
ozzy
not liking him on a reread. a lot of his posts feel weird and overwrought, especially when he talks about cap_h. it could be a language thing, but i think it goes beyond that. including timestamps for this next part.
he puts his read on gourd as 'null' at first
So, now Gourd has been updated from 'null' to 'second scumread.' okay. not sure what changed between these two posts.
He's canceling his cap_h vote there. So cap is not an actual scumread, so, in reality, gourd is his top scumread, but also not good enough to warrant a vote, still.
what the fuck is going on
are you kidding me? i really don't like this attempt to reframe what he was saying about gourd.
i DO like this post where he ranomly prods inactive people.

Can't tell if genuine misunderstanding or just a sick burn, but I like it.
Somehow LockeZ's vote on Muffle is "so scummy", but the other ones in this game (none of which have good reasons behind them either) aren't. Your aggressive vote feels way more scummy to me than LockeZ's.

Gourd is acting real suspicious cracking all those jokes and trying to suspect everyone. Trying to accuse Ozzy for roleplaying and LockeZ for saying not to accuse everyone on day one.overwrought
I vote to lynch Gourd as well.
I wish I could say this is a trick to make me take my eyes off of you, but this actually makes much more sense than the flimsy reason you gave me as well as it's very LockeZ-esque. So, therefore, after feeling humiliated and tricked by this mastermind, I will change my vote xD Very good job LockeZ. (this post is overwrought..consistent with last one)ovewrought

It's like, we're on day one, you don't need to rapid fire off three different reasons for a vote that you didn't even make but merely suggested to other people. That's definitely "methinks thou doth protest too much" level defensive.
I'm actually moving my vote back to Gourd because I think it's actually a good vote, unlike Muffle, whom I was just prodding (with very sharp knives).
from the offset, this reason for voting gourd never made any sense, because the things gourd was saying weren't actually reasons to vote someone. Gourd even pointed this out later.

02/24/2018 03:45 PM: "I don't exactly see Gourd as overly suspicious. They're overly eager allright, which can point in either direction of scum or town on day one. "
he puts his read on gourd as 'null' at first
02/25/2018 12:57 AM:" @Gourd While I can't guilt you for eagerness I do still find it suspicious. I also find Cap's absence suspicious. Explain yourself Cap, for you are currently at the top of my list followed by Gourd."
So, now Gourd has been updated from 'null' to 'second scumread.' okay. not sure what changed between these two posts.

"I was trying to play the LockeZ game and try to get answers out of someone by giving a bad reason and trying to lynch them, it works miracles it seems.
#cancel
It being day one, I don't have any real suspects, and although I do find Gourd suspicious I don't find him suspicious enough to warrant a vote."
He's canceling his cap_h vote there. So cap is not an actual scumread, so, in reality, gourd is his top scumread, but also not good enough to warrant a vote, still.
02/26/2018 04:29 PM:author=Jeroen_Sol
Agreed on the nolynch doesn't help anyone. I wouldn't say Ozzy isn't suspicious to anyone else though. Ozzy, please answer my question from before.
I don't suspect anyone enough to warrant a lynch vote, my votes till now were all just to test the waters. Although Gourd does rub me off as suspicios, he's not suspicious enough to warrant a lynch imo. I should check who started the narrative against Gourd as I find this entire bandwagon against Gourd very suspicious.

I find Demonlord's claim of being targeted and his interaction with piano's claim very suspicious. First he just says he was attacked and as soon as someone else came out about having being attacked and giving more details about their flavour, he instantly added that he was attacked similarly (flavour wise of course). That would be the perfect way for scum to try and paint themselves as a target and therefore as town. If both of them were truly attacked, than that would mean that this game would have 3 nightkills plus the lynch, I can't help but see that as incredibly unlikely as that means that each night 3 people would've died (if Gourd would've been alive).
I think Demonlord is straight out lying in order to hide amongst town.
#lynch Demonlord5000
I doubt Piano lied because Demonlord could've contradicted him and tried to build a case against him. I think this pretty much confirms Piano as town, unless they are both scum and didn't target anyone this night in order to pull off their "We've both been attacked" spiel in order to paint themselves as town. Although I see the second scenario way less likely, it should not be dismissed.
this post makes uhhh no sense to me.

I should scumhunt more? mm, right now I've just been trying to collect reasons as to why someone might be scum. When you say scumhunt, do you mean a list? I thought I've pointed out several reasons as to why people could be town or scum. I'm just sitting back watching and reading because I don't have much to say that has already been said, and I don't want to repeat myself.
Also, I'm not attacking you cave. I just don't fully understand what you mean.

The double protector and double gunman stuff is super interesting.
I'm trying to figure out whether a double protector role would help Mafia or Town out more.
It'd be easy enough for two Mafia to protect the same person, not so much Town. What would be the odds of two Protectors, well, Protecting the same person?

As much as I enjoyed reading CAVE_DOG's zero-punctuation list, I have to admit he makes a good point regarding Ozzy. To be honest, I'm not sure why I thought Muffle's Day 2 initial post was insincere and not Big Oz's.
Hey Muffle, do you have any thoughts re: Ozzy at the moment?

Scumhunting is also proactively asking people questions, laying down accusations, seeing people's responses.
Wow, that stream of Ozzy posts looks really bad. I also didn't like how he called Esby a neutral here:
Why would you even come to the conclusion there's a neutral in this game in the first place? And why would you say that's not a big deal? Neutrals can vote with scum at lylo. It sounds more like scum powerhunting than it sounds like town scumhunting to me.
Would kill Ozzy today.

author=OzzyTheOne
Esby made a valid point when pointing out the sudden agreement between LockeZ' vote and Muffle's. He doesn't seem like scum to me, more like a neutral that doesn't care that much about what happens to town, that does not paint him as scum in my eyes, just as a unhelpful neutral. His excuse for not voting Gourd is also sound, if he were scum, he would've gone along with the rather easy lynch on Gourd.

I guess I'll actually #Lynch Ozzy at this point.
YellowMagic Ozzy does seem to be switching around what he said before which calms off a little odd. It's like he says one then and then another that contradicts it or doesn't make sense. I haven't said much about Ozzy because I'm not sure exactly what he's even trying to do or what to say about it. His aggressive response to us lynching Gourd though was... a bit much.
So far I'm not getting a high scum read on anyone right now, not enough to lynch them anyways. I'm trying to be more careful after lynching Gourd, I wonder if I didn't really accept Ozzy's reasoning of "He's being his usual overly-eager self" because I don't know anything about Gourd nor have seen anything of his. I'm definitely going to try and look more into things and think through every reasoning anyone suggests from now on. Which is another reason I'm not saying much.
If you want I can make a list or a really long post of what I think. Though I might need some time to gather might thoughts correctly so it's not read wrong, and so I can get everything I find necessary. Sorry for not participating much this day so far, as I said pretty much everyone else has said anything I would have said so I don't see a point.
and omg, I'm going to look over that part where I agreed with Cap. Not because I think I was wrong or don't trust Cap but because due to my memory disability I legit don't remember why I agreed nor do I see a reason why I would have said that. This is going to bother me. I see I was very vague about agreeing with him, so if I figure it out I'll point it out. If it's necessary anyways.
