I'm also not sure on what to think of Gourd's little list, while it does look very useful, I will *gasp* metagame and point out that in the past scum has done this a lot on day 1, usually being the only player in said to post a large list of reads on day 1.

Then again, Gourd didn't really give reads on people as much as he just pointed out the content of their posts, which makes me feel he's town, hence why I'm neutral on him.
It wasn't a jokevote, Gourd sets off my scumdar constantly in every game ever. I actually didn't realize there were already two votes on him.

I read gourd's post breakdown today and my first instinct is to go after him again but it does actually look like he's committing to opinions vs fence-sitting.

I really prefer Hex to fomar. I don't buy cave's call of "flailing scum," especially when fomar was in last game with scum-Cave.

What are your reasons for thinking Psy may be scum?
ESBY may have the same bad vibes that I got from his Gourd vote. It could be a joke vote, but it's the third one on him, there's no good reason for it, and it has the very eerie energy of absent-minded scum following a scum-partner's vote.
a little this and that his reasoning for his later hex vote was very flimsy. a couple people have hex on their list too but he's usually towards the bottom end so could be an attempt at looking useful with a relatively safe vote
yeah if Gourd had just posted the list, I'd be trying very hard to kill him -- I reviewed his post history to find the list again and saw that the next bunch of posts after that were townish though.

Although I don't think his town-reads are good at all, "helpfulness" is not correlated with townishness really.

can some1 make a votecount. i wont
Ok I'll start with the lurkier members as they have less posts and I can get through them quicker:

Emily
+I'm getting a town read and I've been right about her in every game so far.
+Pro lynch.
+Cancels when the number of votes on Gourd gets high quickly.
+Calls out Frogge.

Libby
-Misses the start of the game and is one of the least active players despite usually being one of the most active players.
--Objects to all the maths and arguments for lynching on day 1 but then also proceeds to vote for a lynch.
+argument with Piano
++the apolagy strikes me as something scum libby wouldn't do

Cap_H
-I thought Cap_H's town was meant to be confused about everything yet not one mention of Odd's rule clarification.
-Starts off really jokey but it was early day 1. At the same time that was about half of his activity (this is basically the minus for lurking).
+His kerfuffle with Liberty.

Demonlord
<> (neutral) we were fully warned about last of early game activity beforehand, so I am not counting lurking against him
+I agree with his read on Piano
+Calls out Libby and Frogge for lurking.
<> Fridge and Formar

Ozzy
--Probably the second biggest lurker so far, I moaned at Frogge for having contributed 69 words but Ozzy has so far only contributed 232 words.
-The post where he just lists like and dislike on posts, this isn't facebook.
-The complaints about meta gaming, I've played two games and it's clearly part of the RMN mafia culture at this point.
+Calls out Frogge with a valid reason.

Esby
--Lurking, incase you hadn't noticed I love quantifiable data so his word count is 201.
-His one read was: Piano is scum or Piano is town.

Frogge
--Currently the least active player.
--Every post is a joke.

Nothing reveals Humanity so well as the games it plays. A game of betrayal, where the most suspicious person is brutally murdered? How savage.

my current thinking is that cave, piano and demon are definitely town, most others i'm still neutral on and fomar, hex & psy being the likeliest baddies atm

To me ESBY seems more like reserved town than scum trying to hide something, he's said one or two things that makes me think he's town. Scum would be all in favour of rushing to a vote, yet he openly talked against it, which makes me feel like he's town. Besides, my gut's telling me he's fine, so I'm ignoring him for now, I figure he'll be less reserved on day 2.
I could get behind a hex lynch too but it's not needed. Its majority so someone will die regardless. I'd be fine with a hex/fomar split since that guarantees one of them will die and itd be interesting to look after the votes after the flip.

Oh crud, I did indeed not cancel my Libby joke vote, completely forgot about it.

plurality is the one where someone dies regardless. majority is the one where hammer is needed. i have no idea which is being used this game.

Lynching occurs at either the moment hammer is reached, or at the end of the day. If it's at the end of the day, the person with the most votes directed towards them shall die.


ah, ok. its plurality.

tbh I'm not really swayed by fomar's recent posts and still prefer him. i've re-read hex and his posts sound pretty natural to me. idr what he's like as scum and will not do research.

i would seriously look at emily tomorrow should fomar happen to flip town.

author=CAVE_DOG_IS_BACK
not sure what you mean. do elaborate

regardless, stepping on tippy toes is a classic scum trademark, doubly present in new scum, which fomar would be.



author=AlaskanEmily
Yeah, I'm not really feeling like Fomar is scum. I feel like 75% town on him.

I don't have a strong read on Hex yet.

I do agree that this is uncomfortable:


author=AlaskanEmily
I'm much more against a Fomar lynch than a Liberty lynch, I really don't feel like Fomar is scum at this point. I would rather lynch Hex or Fridge to be honest. Hex has said some reasonably smelly things, and Frogge has too. I also don't like how the main reason not to go after Frogge is that the plays are too basic/obvious/clumsy for scum.


very strong opposition to the fomar execution but no clear reasons given as to why.

To summarize:

The early day triplet of Gourd_Clae joke votes.

  • AlaskanEmily
  • Fomar
  • psy_wombats


One of these three are scum; possibly two. I don't know which one, but if I'm wrong, I'll be stunned. I'll be very surprised.

Man, I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels weird about these guys.

As much as I think it might just be him floundering because he is newer, I have to admit that his large list of "reads" in which he doesn't give any alignment calls is not a good look. The case against him is reasonable and I don't want us to tie (because I don't know what happens then??)

@alaskan Being against his lynch is just one of those things where you have a feeling about somebody I guess

I probably worded it poorly, but I read cave and town on helpfulness which I think breaks up into
1. Actively trying to scumhunt
2. Not metagaming to hell to avoid actual conversation

Not sure if that makes my townreads any better, but tbh I also just get a good gut feeling for both demon and cave

Yeah, I didn't post a large list of reads. They were basically just notes on everybody's behavior to try and get a better grasp on the situation. I'll be the first to admit that I was getting a little overwhelmed and the post was my way of trying to organize my thoughts. ;w;

Just fyi, I think odd clarified that ties will result in a random lynch of the two.

I'd quite it but I'm on phone right now.
