I honestly don't know what to make of Patches.
I didn't pay enough attention at the start to see if Patches was on the roster prior to the [SPIDER] Vote or not. Patches is also talking in a very role play-esque manner, and I have a hard time thinking that a player was asked to join the game as part of the setup with a pre-existing role which would also mean their alignment was disclosed to them prior to sign ups closing (more like before sign ups even started tbqh).
I have some theories, none of which really make me believe that Patches is an actual player though. First is, Patches might be an "NPC" which would be a Mafia first for me. Patches could simply be in the game to give us a Day 1 lynch that rewards Blood Echoes without fear of lynching anyone important so that we may make purchases while still giving us at least some information to work with from an actual day 1, but also giving us the first Night of the game which is where the magic of this game really happens.-

No, not particularly. I did ask something earlier, but thus far only one person engaged it and another touted it as being more or less useless (which in this game, you should be wary of what you consider that to be).In post 285, Reasonably Irrational wrote:Toogeloo : Do you have anything to share with the class?
Right now, I got no scum reads and no real town reads... Well, not entirely true, I do like a couple people (though their actual play isn't alignment indicative), and there was a post I didn't particularly care for, but that player's slot is apparently being town read by multiple people, so I'm reserving judgement. I'm having a hard time distinguishing a lot of the noise in the game from content, what is serious posting, and what's just your typical Day 1 shenanigans. Large games take me a while to break down reads, and no one is really standing out as doing anything particularly town motivated or scum motivated, especially with wonky mechanics such as these. For now, I'm fine being a less engaging observer and we'll see what happens in due time.
This makes me want to vote Patches tbqh, especially in light of his statement of not rewarding Blood Echoes.In post 286, Varsoon wrote:If a vote that you cast is on a player who is lynched, you are rewarded for it.
Self voting, and self endorsing for Master of the Hunt is quite possibly the lamest thing anyone can do this game.In post 314, Mixed6 wrote:This is the Troll head speaking, and I do endorse the plan of voting for Mixed6 as Master of the Hunt.

God, I hate the noise in this game, and with multiple hydras, it's like having almost 30 players. Come back to a ridiculous catch up and have to skim through stupid pointless posts.
I honestly feel as if self voting and self endorsing for Huntsman is stupid. I will not be voting for anyone who does it. I mean seriously... everyone will claim they are the best person for Huntsman. I know I'm town, I could vote for myself. Now where would that put us? It would have been much better if you couldn't self vote at the very least.
I'm too lazy to go back and find it, but someone said my vote on Patches was pointless and another said that the Mod wouldn't make it that "easy." First off, the Mod already confirmed that lynching anyone/thing will grant rewards, which is in direct conflict to what Patches said in regards to not granting rewards for being lynched. Secondly, what's "easy" about voting for Patches? You realize how much faith players have to have to go out on a limb and lynch a slot like that?
Is there some kind of town bloc with the current Hunt Party going on too? Like they all seem to love each other, and they seem to want to keep the Hunt going in their little clique or something. The only person who doesn't seem included is the Huntmaster himself, Kling.-

The mod's statement made no indication that there are exceptions to the rule, and it came after Patches claiming he doesn't reward anything.In post 626, Nahdia wrote:It's "easy" because you're wouldn't expect to face direct opposition. And just because the default is that all slots give rewards when slain doesn't mean there can't be exceptions. i don't believe you're so dense that you think it's a literal contradiction.
And it's rather humorous to say that I wouldn't face direct opposition when in fact that's all I've faced so far.
What is your opinion of Mixed and RI?null and null. They are a bit bullish, and flooding the topic with posts. I guarantee that even half their post counts is useless drivel and could have saved us a couple pages of reading. Nothing they've posted has given me any vibe as to scum or town one way or another, and all I've seen is them putting their personality to text.-

There's no need for me to feel as if I need to get my hands dirty. We are only a couple days into the game despite being on our way to well over a 100 page day. I'm still establishing reads, of which I have several I feel are town. I'm not an Alpha personality, never have been, and since we have plenty of those in the game already, there's no point in me competing for attention. I have reads going, don't you worry, and when the time is right, I will change my vote if necessary and give reasons and everything. For now though, I rather like where I'm at, and to be quite honest there isn't a damn thing you can do about it today.In post 629, Daenerys and Dragons wrote:But you don't seem that eager to get your hands dirty here.
For the record, D&D, it was one of your posts that I had issue with earlier, but since people were touting you as a town read, I opted to keep that to myself and read some more of your interactions and develop the read further.
I have two people that I really like as town, but nothing solid for scum yet.-

For someone who controls the Spider Vote, and then having a player called Patches the Spider show up and calling it a *townie* post felt disingenuous to me.
Much of your posts seem helpful, almost too helpful, which gives me an air of suspicion as well. There's some coaching in regards to FA's slot, which I get, she needs some comforting from time to time, but all in all, I almost feel as if your slot is too friendly at times. That said, you have solidly rooted reads, and there's nothing else to really fault about your play as of right now.-

Huntmaster Vote: Rylai and Lina
I like you.
My strongest town reads are now: Fire Assassin, randomidget, and Rylai and Lina.
I really have no interest in Mixed6 being in any kind of position of power as I don't trust their slot at all, not so much in a scum read sort of way, but something else all together. ABR head feels townie, but I still don't want their slot as Huntsman.
I'm not attempting to slander you D&D, your post that I linked clearly states you talking to Frozen Angel in regards to her posting and communication in a cheery manner. My read at that time was that you were being overly friendly and since it's in the same post with the town dismissal of Patches, I felt it was also just deceptive attempt at buying friends and was just as disingenuous as the Patches comment. Do I still have that read? No, but you asked me what it was about your post that I didn't like. If you don't like the answer, that's fine, but I'm hardly attempting to slander you by stating what it was I disliked about the post after you asked. That'd be like getting mad at me for not taking off my shoes after inviting me into your house.
In the spirit of a Ranger Readlist, this is about where I'm at currently...
(Toogeloo, Randomidget, Fire Assassin, Rylai and Lina)
(Ranger, Zulfy, Shadow_Step, Shinobi)
(Almost50, Daenerys and Dragons, Klingoncelt, Mixed6, Reasonably Irrational)
(PeregrineV, Xkyfu, Yume, Hastur and Muriel)
(Gee Willikers, Nahdia)
(Patches the Spider, Sensei, Bogre)-

Patches wasn't listed in the Huntsman nominee pool in the last vote count that I saw, which was after PV voted it, so I imagine none of have any worries about that slot becoming Huntsman, however it is interesting that Patches can receive lynch votes.
PV's vote came off to me as rebellious, more of a shock and awe eff u kind of move.-

Don't hold your breath. First off, I don't typically play Large Themes because I only have about an hour a day to devote to mafia as it is, so when we get 10+ pages a day, it's pretty easy for me to just put off being an active poster in favor of just reading and making sure I've got the gist of what people's stances are. Larger games tend to have more noise too, which makes filtering through posts more difficult. I'm doing family things right now during the holiday weekend, going to the family cabin, fishing, hiking, swimming, etc... So you're lucky you get what you get from me right now.In post 1552, Daenerys and Dragons wrote:How about you don't continue being useless instead?

Ranger, you have one game experience with me. That hardly makes you an expert on my play.
Mixed, my reads haven't really changed since I posted that "awful" readslist, though I am starting to consider moving Ranger down a tier to slightly null-town since the tone of their play has changed in the back 30 pages over the prior 30.-

I also will not hold the game hostage. If a deadline lynch rests on my decision of no lynch or voting a town read, I will vote the town read. It's day one, so a town read isn't obviously a clear, and any info is better than no info.
The issues is there isn't any clear wagon leading the charge towards a lynch, and the 3 leading wagons are all town reads. If I had to choose, random would be one I would least likely vote for, and I'd choose between Shinobi and Shadow, but I don't feel like I have to do that yet.
Anyone other than my top 2 lines in my last read list is someone I definitely wouldn't fight a lynch on. I'm phone posting, so it's not really easy for me to repost it, just ISO it, move Ranger down a line, and anything below the top 2 lines is fine.-

Your strongest town read would obviously be yourself, duh. Plus, given yhe mechanics, scum are assuredly towning it up more so, so there should be a slight degree of paranoia in regards to Huntmaster voting.In post 1962, Reasonably Irrational wrote:

I'm cathching up, about 10 pages behind, but I don't like RI slot that much anymore, and Liger slot is being tied in closely for the same reason. Liger posts feel like a subtle campaign in a buddying manner. I wanted to quote this post in particular because it's flawed logic, and it's remjnding me that RI has been scumming it up a bit. There was a post that informative lynches are dumb, which made me go "wtf?" as well. There was a post earlier in the game that I thought was slightly but brshed asde and forgot about. Will look for it in a moment, phone posting is harder than PC posting.-

People are putting WAY too much thought into the way a Huntsman needs to be elected.
Success of a Chalice Dungeon is great and all, but Failure can also help us in some manner as well. Truth be told though, we have no idea what the Dungeons even do, the rewards they give, and the causes of success and failure. From a purely game perspective, 4 players in Pthumeru Depth 1 is overkill, and I highly doubt it fails regardless, but again, without knowing the specifics of how Chalice Dungeons work from a Mafia perspective, I don't think overthinking who goes and who's Huntsman based on leadership skills and their ability to town/scum read players should be that important.
Let's put it this way, say you are scum and in the Huntsman's party. Don't you think you would get more benefit from helping it succeed anyways since A) all players in the Hunting Party get rewards for completion, and B) it helps make you look more townie as a result as well?
Simply put, the Huntsman Mechanic is certainly not going to help us by choosing who we think is town because everyone is trying to look town, and scum probably even more so just so they can get in on the Hunt. The fact that people can self vote for Huntsman doesn't really do any favors either.-

This is also why I want R&L as Huntsman. They are far more transparent than most the other candidates, and I think their Hunting Party picks will also be generally good candidates that will help us figure out the Mechanic more instead of just a bunch of Alphas.In post 2155, Toogeloo wrote:Let's put it this way, say you are scum and in the Huntsman's party.

Honestly, the Hunting Party should be such a low priority for discussion for Day 1, but it feels like everyone is trying to hunt through it more so than the lynch. Let the first Hunt Party figure out the specifics of the Hunt first, and then we can be better informed on the best way to go about electing Huntmasters and Party Members.
I'm almost inclined to say we should all just revote Kling as Huntmaster again until the specifics are revealed.
Honestly, unless RI wants to specifically out that his role somehow empowers the Hunt, then there's no reason to believe that his role is specifically Huntmaster related over anyone else. My role flavor suggests I would make an amazing Hunting Party member, but I have zero interest in campaigning for that at the moment (and I'm not concerned about sharing that info because I'm not going anywhere for at least a full cycle anyways).
PEDIT: Yes, they were scum in one game with me, and yes, I am fully aware that she is emotional regardless of alignment, but there are certain nuances that can't be faked, and thus far she hasn't tripped any suspicion and only strengthened my town read.-

A) Someone started with a bank of Blood Echoes or gets extra echoes for slaying a player.

C) Sensei was worth 8k or more more Echoes.
It's almost assuredly in scum hands though.-

Fire Assassin was an early town read, I disassociated Liger with that read at some point yesterday. I didn't like Liger pushing the RI Huntmaster thing, but that's about all I remember from why I moved him to scum.
I had Bogre as a scum read pretty much the entirety of Day 1, but was on Patches for the majority. Resistance to my vote caused me to move to Bogre when I mentioned distaste of the other 3 leading wagons, but I thought I was on Bogre with at least one other person at the time. When I realized I was the only person voting for Bogre, I went back to Patches since it had at least one other person on it and I still didn't like the other leading wagons. The next time I saw Bogre in the lead, I got back on again. I post in this thread on average once per day, though I do keep up with the posts by reading them at work or on my commute while on my phone. By the time I had gotten back to my vote on Bogre, a lot had transpired.
Nahdia started as a low scum read early on, but she's grown on me, and I have other "reasons" for not wanting to get rid of her yet.
That answer all the questions?-

I mean, if you guys really,reallywant to get rid of Nahdia, I won't stand in your way. I'm not saying she's 100% absofuckinglutely town, but I still have "reasons" for not wanting her out of the game just yet. With House's purchase of the Molotov, at least I think it continues to narrow down the pool some more.-

I wouldn't say it's really changed. I think you are oversimplifying the hierarchy of the list. You are still fairly high on my town read, as was most everyone above you. Maybe it would have helped if I had put a fairly large gap between you and House's slot? I did that post from a strictly analytical point of view as well. Nahdia isn't a bigger town read than you for example, she's just not someone I want to lynch at this very moment for "reasons."In post 2975, Randomnamechange wrote:Still haven't explained why your read on me changed.-

IIRC, the Blood Starved Beast and all of Old Yharnam is actually optional. You could buy access to Vicar Amelia for 20k Echoes and proceed through the game normally in that manner.In post 2933, Toogeloo wrote:V: You need to defeat the Blood-Starved Beast anyway. Otherwise, I'm pretty sure you can't run into the bagmen that bring you to Hypogean Gaol. I suppose you could wait until far, far later in the game when you visit The Unseen City, too. You also don't have to fight Blood Starved Beast to access the Healing Church areas--just beat the Cleric Beast and purchase the Hunter Chief Emblem.-

You silly people and your over-simplification of things in a very complicated game. I started the day with almost everyone on my list of people we should consider lynching as town reads. I opted to consider narrowing our lynch pool to just people on the wagon since it's extremely likely that scum purchased the Monocle and the only way they could have done that was from being on the wagon. I also presented reasons why certain individuals should be removed from the list due to death or item purchases, and presented everyone (including myself) that remained. Many of are town reads, but that has nothing to do with the case I broke down. I didn't vote a single one of them, but I wanted to make sure that I presented the case as unbiased as I could so that everyone could understand my position and where I was coming from.In post 2995, House wrote:

Sounds legit.
Apparently though, when I say I don't want to lynch someone for "reasons" over people who are stronger town reads, it must mean I think they are scum. Can't be null, can't be probably town, though I think these other people are townier, no... just scum. Ok.
If you want to vote anyone on my list, go for it. Hell, I'd probably help for the Insight and Blood Echoes. They're reads, not confirms, so what do I care?-

Alright, so in full disclosure... here's what's going on with Nahdia and I.
I am Valtr, One-Shot Slay-Proof Master of "The League."
I own the Private Neighborhood, The League, where I can invite people to join and we can gain Vermin resources for killing players (doesn't specify town or scum, just players). Vermin Resources can be used to purchase items in my League, mostly anti-scum things, like an item to prevent negative actions from targeting the league member who uses it (from other league members), all the way up to the Master's Iron Helm, which tells the owning player how many scum, beasthood, and insight+3 players are alive at the beginning of every Day Phase.
I am One-Shot Slay-Proof, it prevents me from being lynched or night killed one time. I will know when my protection is gone.
Each Night I invite one person to the League, and last night I opted to choose Nahdia. I wanted to pick someone who I thought was townie enough that wasn't likely to die Night 1 but also was at least a semi-strong generally considered town read amongst the greater playerbase as well. She seemed like a good fit.
PEdit (Bogre)... Again, you keep saying I was scum reading Nahdia. I was maybe at the beginning of Day 1, but she moved up my list quite a bit by the end of the day. I'm sure I have a reads list somewhere towards the end of the day where she wasn't a scum read.
PEdit (D&D)... Jesus Age Christ, haven't you been reading at all what my whole analysis was?-

The message I sent to Nahdia was this:
"Ahh, a new face, are you? And an accomplished hunter... it would appear. I am Valtr, Master of the League. Members of the League cleanse the streets of all the filth that's spread about during the hunt, like any half-decent hunter ought to, you know? Haven't you seen enough of these wretched beasts, freakish slugs, and mad doctors? Sentence these fiends to death with the help of your League confederates. What do you say? Why not join the League?"
(basically what Valtr tells the player in Bloodborne when you first meet him)
My League request is sent anonymously, and can be declined, so I wasn't sure if she would accept or not, so I wanted the Message to make it clear as well what the invite was for.
Varsoon didn't add Nahdia to the list of current members until several hours into Day 2, so I had to ask if she had received the message.-

0 Vermin - Impurity Rune: League Members require one extra vote to lynch if they are members of other Neighborhood PTs.In post 3066, Mixed6 wrote:Can you list all the items in your shop for us?
1 Vermin - League Oath: Negative Actions do not harm you that are used by other League Members.
2 Vermin - Constable Garb: Scum, Beasthood players, and Insight 3+ players grant double blood echoes if you help slay them.
5 Vermin - Master's Iron Helm: At the beginning of the Day Phase, the owner is informed of how many scum, beasthood, and Insight +3 players are still alive in the game.
Only one player can own the Iron Helm. If the owning player dies, it is returned to the shop inventory. If for some reason I (League Master) die, then the owner of the Helm takes over as leader of the League and can invite players.-

I'd like to also say how important it is that I be on lynches regardless of my read on them. I feel like the Master's Iron Helm is going to be pretty useful, and scum will have to waste two night trying to kill me while I get to it. I should just start with it since I'm the Master and all, but then Varsoon would probably tell me how OP it is to start the game with it, yadda yadda yadda.-

In this particular case, the information is better left said than unsaid. Knowing there is another PT out there that increases Nahdia's lynch threshold and sells items for killing players is kind of important, as is the reasons for why I wasn't in a big hurry to lynch Nahdia, a slightly lesser read than my main town reads.In post 3138, Reasonably Irrational wrote:Toogeloo: Why did you claim? You're not at risk of being lynched right now. You aren't trying to protect Nahdia. Why claim?
It doesn't make sense. Claiming killproof under no pressure is the scummiest of fucking scummy things to do.

I don't care that people know my role as it's not an "imperative" role to keep around, as compared to say a Cop or Doctor, and I also wanted to let scum know they can't get rid of me that easily either but also that a Doctor shouldn't waste their time protecting me for now at the same time. My activity level also presents a problem for scum since they have to decide to waste two shots on me, a slot that isn't in a position of leadership but might still be a threat down the road (when they may not have the luxury to waste two shots on me).-

No, it's not. In Bloodborne, The League is the only co-op based PvE covenant. You summon friends to help kill bosses.

It doesn't, but it means it's more likely that they couldn't afford both the weapon and the Monocle.In post 3171, Klingoncelt wrote:How does owning weapons make someone Town?-

It's still plenty valid considering the Monocle was purchased before any deaths other than Sensei. I know you seem to think it's in town hands, but I have a hard time believing it to be the case. Monocle is 8k Echoes, so either scum got it, or someone from the Hunting Party got it, but if someone from the Hunting Party got it, why keep it a secret unless they are scum? It wasn't until the paranoia started setting in and the possibility that it can be narrowed down to specific players did you state that it was possible to have it in town's hands.
You may be a town read of a vast majority of players, but you aren't one for me. I'd probably be willing to vote you if I knew it'd get traction. Instead, I feel like I need to go for easier low hanging fruit options that have a greater likelihood of being lynched. I still believe scum was on the lynch yesterday regardless, so why not try to kill two birds with one stone?-

How is it you were able to purchase the Monocle in secret?

I feel like PV, Arrow, and H&M should have something more by this point, though I also feel like there are a lot of clears for no reason at the moment as well so they've found themselves there by circumstance. We've brushed aside a lot of potential lynches thus far on a "must be town," mentality. I would love to lynch anyone N/S or lower, to be honest, since my list is slightly tainted by activity reads as well and less on motivational reads, however, as I stated before, I very much feel like I need to be on any lynch I can so I can get to the 5 Vermin faster (lynching is my only way of gaining Vermin).-
