vote Not_Mafia
Hi all,
I am your friendly neighborhood IC. I'm here for any problems or questions you have - if it's about gameplay mechanics I will usually try and answer them as an IC, not as a player. However, I am also still a player in this game and I will also be playing the game.
There are some links here which will show you how I can help. If you need anything, ask me or the mod.
As an aside, I am a List Mod, but I cannot comment on anything about this game, or about bans that are/are not coming, so please don't ask.

Most importantly -
POST
If you don't post, you starve town of information and you allow Mafia to go undetected. I don't like people spam posting, but lurking is also a bad idea.
Try not to drown out everyone in the game. Consider your responses carefully. Post when you need to post, not just for the sake of posting.

Anyways, I don't think Morg's frustration and annoyance is faked here. And I don't think it's scummy either
This was my reason for the vote in a nutshell. Also I find that IC could bend town a bit as scum and a push will bring some info.
In post 129, Crimson97 wrote:btw can any mafia take the kill here or only goons?
I think anyone should be able to make the kill. If the one with the ability dies, then the goon will still be able to make the kill. This night kill is the most powerful weapon of their's and I don't think it stops until all of them are dead.

Reaction testing yeah, maybe at the start. He doesn't address any content/questions as to why he's scumreading/tunneling Morg though, when a bunch of people pretty much "called him out" for the reason. I'd generally except at least some kind of clarification. That's at least weird, if not scummy.
As for the bloded part, you pretty much answered that in one of your previous posts. I think he's just wrapped up in playing defense and that's kinda all there is for now
I take it that he's an experienced player on the site and he must have some sort of plan. If he hard tunnels anyone which leads to their lynching he will have lot of explaining to do if that person flips town and it's kinda like bringing all the attention to yourself.
In post 130, Nexus wrote:Any of them - they can either use their ability and kill, or just kill if they're a goon.
Why did you need to repeat what I'd said earlier? Seems like an attempt to look useful.
If I hard tunnel on scum then I'm the towniest person here. Which is what I think is happening
In post 138, Nexus wrote:My vote and his subsequent responses to my vote and my push do not convince me that he is town.
That's vague. Why, EXACTLY? What is scummy in his answers? Being defensive? Town can be defensive too, you know. And I'm pretty sure you know it. So what bothers you so much?
It's bothering me less than you're bothering me, to be fair.
It's the fact that a townie person would probably just let it go and move on to something else, whereas Morg is insistent on proving that they look town.
In post 201, Crimson97 wrote:Morg's behavior seems scummier imo overall but i'd be fine with a Marsh lynch too. I don't see them both being scum so if one flips scum the other one is probs town.

In post 209, Morg wrote:Tarkus is acting very scummy. Almost all of his posts are directed towards making me more scummier or buddying with Nexus. He accuses me because of my defensive behavior but a townie has to get defensive when he is in imminent danger of getting lynched. That's my crime for which I earned his vote. I'm pretty sure he will say stuff like my playstyle was giving him scummy vibes for which he voted for me when I flip town. So yes, feel free to ISO his posts and see it for yourself. How exactly he is helping town to scum hunt.
I feel like I have over reacted partly because I didn't know the meta of these players and so I gave them too much attention that they don't deserve. That has ended up in time loss and scums like Tarkus slipping under our radar.
If Tarkus was really actively scum hunting he'd instead pressurize people like Not_Mafia who is just posting one liners with no substantial value or question Nexus to put in actual questions rather than acting like a stubborn clingy child. Instead I'm the scum, for defending myself.
Tarkus also made some effort in dismissing suspicions on Nexus and both of them seem to have something going on. He says, Nexus's posts are jokey and to bring out reactions. But none of those posts were jokey at all. As for reaction test, they were more like persistently hanging on to someone's back until they drop. How does he not find it scummy if he was truly scum hunting.
He has also put some shade on Crimson but that was because he refused to vote. Voting or not is his decision and him not voting for anyone doesn't make them look scummy.
So for now Tarkus is my #2 suspicion. Nexus #1. Not_Mafia #3.
I feel like Nexus and Tarkus could be scum buddies. N_M might have created an opportunity for them to shift the attention to me. UNVOTE: Not_Mafia VOTE: Nexus
In post 185, Crimson97 wrote:
What did you think foretold mean? Some kind of special ability N_M had? Also how did you think this could be used again later if you didn't address it?
About this, I was not referring to any ability. I was referring to the fact that he's so absolutely sure of the fact that I am indeed scum. To put that level of confidence in your very first post of the day and that too accusing someone without interrogating them or getting reads is something that I couldn't ignore. So I had to address it. But I didn't know he would be such a troll.
So anyone who thinks I'm town is scum?
This is not a good post. I think you are scared about the IC suspecting you and you are trying to get anyone to think you are scum. I think if I wasn't the IC, you wouldn't be so worried about my vote on you earlier - if I were an SE you wouldn't be as defensive.
So I'm probably going to shift my vote to you, like this:

In post 230, Marshmallow Marshall wrote:Not "sry guys we needed info". More like you will keep a focus on morg if he doesnt die. It'll drag attention away from the general game. And as I said he's my 4th suspect, so not THAT MUCH a town read. I would just not have him lynched if I was playing alone. (ik thats not logic)
Mate I had my vote on you. I was happy to let Morg lie. Then he was scummy again.
Now I'm calling out Manatee and then of course you come in to echo the same thing. Some original thought might be nice.

We'll see what happens.
Hah! This is by far THE most you have written so far. So you are finally talking. It's amazing how I confirm my suspicions on you and change my vote and you directly talk to me by quoting my post.
Don't worry I'm not claiming anytime soon. I have a very strict stance on not claiming my role.
Finally some fight. Its good not to claim if there's no intent to hammer.
Ill
unvote
so as there is no lol hammer from a replacement.
Lets say both you and i are town, where would you go next?

I wanted some reads on you and me because we were the biggest two wagons, and we need to encourage replacements to get a read on the game as quickly as possible.
Citizen is not a role in this game. If you mean Vanilla Townie then great, but citizen is not a role we often use on this site.

I'll be honest I think at this point we need to decide - Morg or me. It's unlikely anyone else is going to be run up, and if we continue to dither, the day will end in a no lynch, which is the worst possible result since it gains us no extra information.
Morg seems to have a habit of disappearing until any pressure is put on them, then they reappear for a flurry of posts. It's symptomatic of the state of the game, but given that there's no real active scumhunting going on from many people, it's enough for me to be happy to go on if the alternative is me.
Not_Mafia is town. I am 95% sure on this because of his play style. I don't think he'd be that audacious as scum. I like Tarkus for town and I like ceejayvinoya for town.
I am still convinced myself that MM and Morg are buddies, but I might just be stuck tunnelling.

Have him pegged as scummy since his first post, That rxn from N_M's vote is too much to come from town. Didn't see anything redeeming from him either.
Oh no! Not this again.
This was his last post, which didn't really do much useful. A few posts later I make my post saying we need to lynch one or the other of us. I think at that point he realised it was probably going to be him, so he flaked.

In post 462, Marshmallow Marshall wrote:Why are you pushing his lynch so hard? Looks like you're just trying to survive... but why would you do that as a vanilla townie?
Catch up buttercup. I've unvoted.
Obviously I'm trying to survive, why wouldn't I? I'm town. Seems counter intuitive to be like "loloklynchmethen"
