Must every statement be questioned? It is a fundamental, unalterable fact here. Gretchen town claimed in their first two posts; therefore, she is town.

I don't particularly like this post at this stage in the game. The first thing that Cookie Monster does is go on the defensive despite it being page 1.In post 16, Cookie Monster wrote:Why me?
Speaking of this, no alt sniping in-thread please and thank you.
Cookie Monster appears to be a newbie given that she /inned to the newbie queue.In post 37, Happy Unbirthday Boon wrote:Next quest is figuring out cookie monster

These posts are both clearly from a town slot. This just isn't something scum does; scum aren't going to flash a bright neon attention sign on themselves, not this early in the game. Therefore, Gretchen is lock town Day 1 from these posts alone. Anyone pushing here is scum trying to get an easy lim, and I won't stand for it.In post 57, Gretchen wrote:also another thing about me is that i always find maf if you give me enough time. like, i will always find them no matter how good they are. lying is tiring and maf will always always always wear down over time. if you know what yyo're looking for you’ll see when that happens, like when they start to lose energy and start posting less, and that's what i’ll use to find tthem. what i'm saying here is... basically, is that even if you think i'm maf you should give me a few days. cuz if i'm town i'm sure as hell gonna find you the team. so yeah
Scum aren't ever that careless; at the very least, they aren't more careless than town is at that sort of thing. Do some actual hunting, rather than this shallow analysis of a purported slip.In post 59, samantha97 wrote:In post 56, Gretchen wrote:so you have no idea how happy i was when i saw that sweet sweet sugary green. and uh. gonna be real i don’t think i know how to play as maf anymore and i'd prob ask my team to throw me under the bus, like, instantly on day 1 lmao. but i'm town!! all is right in the world and i'm town town TOWN
Same comment to you as well. Stop looking at the surface level stuff and start analyzing.In post 76, Funeral Goose wrote:I didn't have any green in my town PM.
Awful vote that comes from scum. You saw a target, and you went straight for it. I'll be watching you closely, that's for sure.
Yes, and the randomized reads list is a problem. Less so who is in it and moreso how you colored it; the coloring doesn't really make sense. You go from green to orange to purple to red. How is anyone supposed to interpret that whatsoever?In post 95, Funeral Goose wrote:Now these things aren't wrong or indicative but add those in with the fact you are scumreading me for a first post that is obviously a randomized read list is just trolling.

This post is off because Italian seems rather intent on playing ignorant here when he ought to know exactly what samantha was referring to. (Like, I could understand missing it on an initial pass, but surely Italiano would take the time to look back when someone mentions it rather than just pretend it never happened.)In post 183, ItalianoVD wrote:@Samantha: who claimed tracker.

Where? And you already have one this early in the game?In post 279, Funeral Goose wrote:I made my case on you
I don't see your point. That's fundamentally a WIFOM argument (and I disagree that wagon dynamics work that way early in the game), but regardless, the odds are in favor of such anyway. Thus, this tells us very little of value.In post 288, esotericzoomer wrote:there is without a doubt 1 mafia in the first four voters of funeral imho
This is an equally ridiculous and useless statement. There are most likely only 3 scum, so of course the wagon is predominantly town.In post 291, Happy Unbirthday Boon wrote:almost all of this wagon is town
Yes, well, that's a bad assumption considering it's a 12p game. The chances scum are in the inactives is not nil.In post 294, esotericzoomer wrote:so as far as im concerned, until they check in, this is a 10 player game and scum is within those players

Nah, I disagree. Newbscum wouldn't be that blatant. They get coaching from their teammates.In post 372, Battle Mage wrote:It's quite possible for newbie scum to just look like newbie scum.
Well, obviously, I exaggerated some. But that aside, I stand by it---that style of posting/entrance is exactly the thing that scum leap on. It's easy to paint a narrative around it, and if it flips town (as I believe it would), scum can blame it on their play.In post 372, Battle Mage wrote:I don't understand how you can reach a conclusion someone is obvtown, but also anyone pushing them is looking for an easy lim - doesn't make sense.

Why wouldn't I? I mean, you're quite obviously doing a lot of alt hunting yourself. Given that Cookie had only like 3 or so posts total at that time, it's not that hard to just search their posts and see "Oh, she inned to a newbie". I do like to know if a slot is an alt ot a newbie, just not who they are if they are an alt.In post 436, Happy Unbirthday Boon wrote:Question of thedayhournext fifteen minutes: Why did ITB check whether Cookie Monster had signed up for newbie queue games?
It's possible this just isn't a time they're active. I wouldn't leap to conclusions too soon. (That said, they've done plenty of other scum-indicative stuff, so the read is probably still right even if the reasons aren't.)In post 448, Gretchen wrote:italiano was quite active and chatty right up until i started calling for votes on him and asked him some tough questions. that speaks volumes if you ask me. which you should because i'm good at answering questions

It really isn't. You're oversimplifying my position on the matter.In post 471, esotericzoomer wrote:Saying gretchen is locktown for these posts is pushing it. It looks like you're trying to push a too scummy to be scum narrative, that's an objectively flawed towntell.
And? RVS wagons are of that size aren't unusual. Something has to get the game talking; you act as if you've never seen a wagon grow that large so early (when on the contrary, it's not unusual at all).In post 471, esotericzoomer wrote:That's L-2, there's no reason he should be on L-2.

It's a mini normal; Serial Killers aren't allowed. I highly advise everyone to read up on Normal Guidelines as there seems to be a lot of confusion as to what's normal and not normal.Wiki Page wrote: The game should have at least one Mafia or Werewolf group (of at least two members). In mini games (at most 13 players), there must be exactly one such group, with no third parties.

2) How is this relevant to the fact that you managed to miss something blatantly pointed out to you?
You're putting words in my mouth. I neither confirmed nor denied such. It might be anti-town in some sense, but in another sense, it's perfectly sensible. It's a good way to throw scum off. (Please note that I am /still/ not confirming nor denying whether I was crumbing there or not. More specifically, you may speculate as to whether the crumb is real or not.)In post 572, ItalianoVD wrote:So you were encouraging people to believe you were something that you were not because of...? Why the misdirection and dishonesty? This is anti-town
Yes, well, this is a mindset often taken by newer and less experienced players. More experienced players know it is not that simple. Ever.In post 572, ItalianoVD wrote:Personally I think anti-town and scummy are pretty much interchangeable, but that's me.
I don't agree. I think obtuseness here is more likely from town than scum. Scum have to fake their reads, and they have to fake being town. Furthermore, unlike the town, they are limited in who they can push and cannot push. This means they are incentivized to be more fluid with their reads, so stubbornness, especially early on, is a sign of towniness, not scum potential.In post 575, Ydrasse wrote:the entire thing about calling out lunar for asking questions while doing it at the same time and then missing the point of why it’s hypocritical seems like, purposefully obtuse and also tying esoteric to lunar makes me feel ungood
This is also a good reason to be skeptical of assigning alignment to that aspect of play.In post 578, Gretchen wrote:that's a personality tell for cookie rather than her being maf or town

This wagon is kinda... eck considering Lunar's overall engagement and such. Like, it's not necessarily a scum-driven wagon, but there's definitely scum in it. It's how it formed; I don't think it formed proportionate to the actual likelihood of Lunar being scum.In post 616, lendunistus wrote:Lunar Martian (4): Cookie Monster, Happy Unbirthday Boon, samantha97, esotericzoomer

In this very post you stated: "I agree with this sentiment. People's activity expectations are really unreasonable nowadays" but now you're shading Battle Mage because of... activity.
I didn't make the comment to Battle Mage until **AFTER** the post I talked about lack of presence. Anyway, yes, my take there was a little bit of a double-standard; that much is true; /however/, you have to consider this from a probabilistic standpoint. Notably, it's not unreasonable to suppose that there is a scum in the lower content slots (which I think we will agree that both Lunar and Battle Mage fit at the time) and given a lack of sufficient scum reads elsewhere, poe makes it a decent likelihood.

It may look busy because it is in part such. Gut is reserved for those occasions where you cannot or would have a hard time pointing to specific evidence to support your read. Nonetheless, it is still a valid scumhunting tactic.In post 630, esotericzoomer wrote:well i think making a post just to say someone's 'vibe is off' is just someone tryna look busy
Once more, a terrible assumption.

It's sort of unlikely mafia tunnels town, so I'm probably gonna have to assume you're town, but I don't know.
2 of the 4 are probably town: gretchen (who has already flipped as such) and samantha. The other two are probably scum, Italiano especially.In post 638, Battle Mage wrote:I'm trying to imagine a world where all of the following are town: funeral, samantha, gretchen and italiano

Tbf, this setup started with evens. That disincentives scum from making more obvious shots due to the chances that a doctor or jailkeeper is in the setup. Gretchen would be an unlikely protect target, and like I mentioned earlier, Gretchen would be a threat to a team that has Italiano in it, so there are several scenarios where it does make sense to shoot her.In post 733, Funeral Goose wrote:But if ydrasse is to be believed with the vig shot stuff, then, lol @ scum for shooting Gret.

Loud, yes, but Gretchen lacked power. That is, Gretchen lacked the ability to control the thread. Maybe she would have gained that with time, who knows? Regarding the latter part, she was definitely still a viable mis-elim, so I doubt that's why she was killed. Like the only plausible reason (and tbf, it has a high likelihood of being the case) that Gretchen was killed is two-fold: 1) scum didn't want their kill to fail or be watched and 2) Italiano is on the team and feels that Gretchen poses a threat to him. In any other case, Gretchen is a very suboptimal N1 kill. (Tbf, Gretchen probably wouldn't remain a viable mislim, but at that point in time, the odds were still in favor of it being possible.)In post 774, Battle Mage wrote:i would guess gretchen was killed by scum for being loud and probably not a viable mis-elim.
Recall that BM claimed VT. In a setup like this, scum would probably want to get rid of a PR over someone confirmed not to be one.

This gets a 2/5 rating. Perhaps plausible, but overall, rather weak.In post 815, ItalianoVD wrote:Uhh, well yeah I’m a little embarrassed and I knew it was obviously gonna come up, but once I posted my readslist I left. When I came back to check in I saw Hub’s lolpost below mine and was like huh, so I went back to read page 27 and saw what transpired with Lunar. With Hub’s post in mind I just voted at the bottom of page 27. I saw Battle Mage and Samantha had voted.
The embarrassing part is when my post refreshed I saw Funeral had already put him at E-1. Ugh. I wasn’t too fret about it though, but it was goofy. That’s why I didn’t really wanna talk in twilight, but trust, me I would not have been that careless as scum. For some reason hammering is like a huge no no in this game, but I was okay with whatever heat would come. I didn’t really know where the vote was, but I didn’t expect it to be hammer.
Early game isn't necessarily my forte. Furthermore, if you haven't noticed, I'm often not fully caught up, so yeah, less real time engagement.In post 817, esotericzoomer wrote:their votes have been really weak + poe

Esoteric should die, but not for that. It's the same thing samantha's been doing all game with me, and unfortunately, it isn't necessarily even scum-indicative. Not in today's meta anyway.In post 839, Battle Mage wrote:you should die today for this rolefishing alone
Okay, Battle Mage is starting to look /slightly/ worse, but eh.In post 841, Battle Mage wrote:i think i've covered this, but gretchen had a 4-player pool at end of day - I know I'm town, 1 other player in there flipped town. So at best, 2/4 were scum, which isn't the most amazing. And given the amount of people peddling this argument, it feels much more likely to me that the Gretchen kill was to frame somebody in that pool.
Flavor in normals should never have any relation to the actual setup. That would make the setup abnormal, even if the roles in it are normal.In post 861, Battle Mage wrote:maybe SK stands for something different then
It's a debatable kill, I agree. But is it really all that surprising? People do stuff like that all the time regardless of whether it's the correct move or not.In post 870, Gamma Emerald wrote:also I refuse to believe HUB was a vig shot so I'm curious who might have wanted HUB dead

Like I agree, it would be more productive for you to do something more worthwhile than just rolefish me.

Okay, I admit it's rather hypocritical on my part to ask you to claim here, but at the same time, I don't think you're engaging me in good faith here. Like, it really feels you just decided to target me for some obscure reason, and you haven't offerred up an actual reason as to why you think I'm scum.In post 901, samantha97 wrote:why did you say for me to claim because I should have no fear with ydrasse as my shield, while saying you won't claim in the same breath?

I am a Town 2-Shot Tracker.
I tracked esotericzoomer N1 because I scum read them. They didn't go anywhere on my watch.
I tracked Cookie Monster N2. She also went nowhere.
I also received a message last night. I won't say what it was or who it was from but I'll acknowledge I received it.In the beginning...

I'd rather not post it unless we're mass claiming here. It wouldn't be beneficial to post it.

mostly poe. I'm town reading you and Cookie to varying extent. Battle mage is more null town. He'll probably rise in my reads over time. Gamma is probably town as well but I haven't seen any strikingly townie thing from him. So that leaves Funeral and esoteric.In the beginning...

1) You dropped modifiers. Those make a big difference.In post 1041, Funeral Goose wrote:Neighborizer, Vig, Watcher, Tracker, "Message Sender"
Town looks stacked. Nice try ITB, but you screwed up your fake claim by not saying you were on Gret N1.
2) General rule for a 10-3 mini normal is 3 moderately strong roles against 3 goons. 2-Shot watcher would be one. 1-Shot vig is probably a little less than one. Between tracker and message sender, you'll have a third one.
3) You aren't accounting for the possibility that scum have PRs such as 1-shot ninja or 1-shot roleblocker or informed mafia. That accounts for the neighborizer.
4) We started on evens. Towns always have more powers on evens due to it being disfavorable from an EV standpoint.In the beginning...

While perhaps not a super high probability, I think it's a far cry from impossible. I also think your particular vote on it looks really bad compared to the rest.In post 1053, Funeral Goose wrote:Does anyone think the entire scum team was on Lunar?
If not, that would give us a ITB, Gamma PoE.
Gamma, u aint scum is u?
Or... We could lim scum and force scum to have to kill me rather than have town mislim me. Scum's pptions are clearly limited at this point; they want to keep the poe pool as wide as possible so that they don't box themselves into a corner.In post 1057, Ydrasse wrote:could nuke itb today and go into lylo(?) tomorrow w/o paranoia there
What do you mean, "benefit of the doubt"? Do you really think scum fake claim vig there and expect to ride that claim to lim lo?In post 1063, Battle Mage wrote:I'll give benefit of the doubt to Ydrasse.
I never "claimed". I crumbed very loudly, yes, but I didn't claim tracker Day 1.In post 1064, Battle Mage wrote:ITB claimed tracker Day 1
I didn't town read them, and still don't. I think they are deepwolfing. They're making comments here and there, but they are all superfluous.In post 1076, Battle Mage wrote:1. Why did you target esotericzoomer N1?
Lots of people have expressed scum reads on this slot. Good PR play isn't always dictated by one's reads; you have to account for what's best for the game as a whole. I might town read Cookie, but getting a negative result there is more beneficial to 1) double-check I'm not just biasing myself into a wrong read and 2) it's info that will help others sort the slot once the info is given.In post 1076, Battle Mage wrote:2. Why did you target Cookie Monster N2, if she was amongst your townreads?
Perhaps it would be better if you showed it rather than tell it.In post 1079, Gamma Emerald wrote:

Perhaps. With only two of them left though, they have fewer choices. It's also possible that their roles may force their hand.In post 1103, Battle Mage wrote:I'd suggest optimal tracker play would have been to target somebody who wasn't widely scumread?In the beginning...

I prefer Funeral here, but I will hammer if needed. While I agree Cookie hasn't done much this game, I think it's partially due to lack of familiarity with the game. Ofc, it's possible she is using it as a smokescreen, but I really feel that her teammates would have tried harder to get her to do stuff.
For Funeral, I think all of his posts have been lackluster. I also think the way he reacted to the fake hammer earlier was really telling considering that he later noted he knew it was fake but decided to react as if was real anyways.In the beginning...

Nice fake claim, but no. You're a mafia mailman masquerading as a friendly neighbor. You've conveniently targeted the night kill every night except night 2 where you targeted me because you needed someone to confirm your role.In the beginning...
