Hey. Preface:
1) I am going to this with the continued recent trend that I do not wish to make games toxic. Tchill and Tiam, we good if u good.
2) I read through games at least a little before I sub in and only sub into slots I believe are town. Sure, I can be wrong, I think I have been once or twice. But, I genuinely believe my predecessor is town, so I will be defending the parts of their play that deserve it. I will not defend the fake guilty because trash play is trash play. I will, however, defend it as town trash and not scum trash, because dumbass town is different from dumbass scum.
3) Short game, yay easy post.
Part 2: thoughts as i read along. these are in the order i've thought of them, and i've already skimmed the thread so some will not be chronological.
1) Lexa being killed implicates RB and TIAM. TR both though, so shrug could just be my babe texy is obv town.
2) Screenplay is posting a lot more frequently than I'm used to, and its significantly more awk.
3) I townread the first 3 votes on Heyoka. Genuine wagon building. Building wagons is pro town and Heyoka's play style is pro bably the most annoying I've seen in a while.
4)
immediately after
is bad, the overjustification is bad, and the 4th vote on the mislynch is bad
5)
voted the scummiest vote on the wagon, smh. you're better than this. town, you're better than mislynching this fool.
6) The vote from TIAM on Heyoka was bad. The vote from Kookoo was bad. The vote from Screen when he thought he was hammering was bad. The intent from Mohab was bad.

this post is horrible, because its fairly obvious they aren't an alt and they never claimed to be inexperienced.

However, I wouldn't put him at L-1 yet, not unless we're close to the deadline. He knows he's dead meat here, he'll self hammer and end the day early.
I've analyzed his interactions with other players here and I am going to analyze Lexa and write a post just about now or an hour at most.
wait... you're analyzing him for
partners
? this is real? he's not even scummy, and fosing him is one thing and understandable from newer players but thats ridiculous. i think i townread it though, depending where you go with it.

She was town there, noting a difference is not a town tell.

That said, this lynchpool isn't great. I can understand fosing RB before seeing his content today, Lexa kill doesn't help his case, but meh I prefer a bunch of lynches to him or Lovebird. More the former.
11)
They aren't mutually exclusive. While I'm here though, Kookoo you knucklehead wherever you are, quickhammering d1 isn't necessarily bad no but page 10 it is. I get not wanting long ass days but that's over the line because there's no content to actually parse even with the flips, and people are free to take new stances and whatever. Quicklynching at like page 25 is pretty alright, but before that is shit. I don't think these people are scumreading us justifiedly but they are mad at you justifiably.
12) I think it is very townie of Lovebird to not have voted my slot today, considering all of the opportunities. Heck, a simple OMGUS "you lolhammered first" vote from this slot was all a mislynch needed.

If they have no content, why can't they be in the category that contains scum? IDGI. People with no content can be scum easily.

I can read Mulch and have a very good track record, and this is the most nonsensical shit ever. He would call his partner scum... as in bus... as in something almost any scum ever could do? I've played a lot with you Screen, I've never seen you post the nonsensical shit you have in this game.

It’s kinda hard for you to mislynch a town read so they kill them at night.
Seriously. Do these awful posts from Screen not stop? The thread implies Lexa townread Kookoo with the way he inquired about RB, so if anything it points towards town Kookoo... or yknow it points neither way because Lexa was the towniest player (and one of my good friends <3)

I townread the above string of posts, idgi.

You are making assumptions on their sincerity for reasons to replacing out.
If they are scum you have no reason to believe their motivations. If they are town you shouldn’t know that unless you are scum.
You're bad

and the following are town RB, the way he defends this slot - not scum rb WKing. Not his style.

If Screen reds, I'm gonna look at Pisskop again. But, I think he's prooooobably town (this is much stronger with town screen). I've been scum with him, this doesn't feel like his posting. He subbed out of that game and I was basically playing alone for most of it -_-

Explain? I'm "lynchable"? Kookoo is "mvt"?
Most valuable town I'd guess. I don't agree, Kookoo seems like someone who's an average to good player that has an ego of a great to amazing player. His play up to this point has been /okay/. Iunno how I feel about Piss saying this.

As disgusting as the fake guilty is, it did catch scum.

In post 373, Tchill13 wrote:So why even say we should lynch you first when you know good and well it doesn't accomplish anything?
Kookoo is probably town that thinks they know better than everybody else. I actually see that reckless play from town so much on site... I suggest if you place your vote there you at least have additional reasons.
Agree

27)
This doesn't mean much because there's a moderate chance he's mafia asc but ye its something p damn bad. Psychologically speaking, his memory should have tracked "ascetic" and that should have been what came to his mind. Don't think this is really a point for scum him unfort., but funny.

In post 436, Mohab500 wrote:Guys, can we please not forget what kookoo did earlier? He quickhammered a NULLnread, in the same post made a joke about not knowing he was L-1, later in twillight told someone that if they wanted to suspect him they should look at the quickhammer, in D2 says he just doesn't like games that drag on, and that "He was annoying anyways", can someone please tell me where any town motivation from kookoo is here? I am not buying all of his emotional shit that he's been typing. It honestly feels like a good scumplay hoping to get townread by tone. He's just calling other players bad and talking about how good he is and indimidating other players into townreading him or diverting attention from himself. I have a sneaking suspicion he really thinks this site is full of idiots and that he can get away with quickhammering someone for no reason. He really thinks we're that bad.
I am going to re read and talk about who the other scum are, but later today because I am busy now. But I am starting to slightly believe Tchill scum again from a quick glance.
This post is not good.

VOTE: Kookoobird
I don't see that this has been answered or responded to. I guess it is because Kookoo is scum wanting to hide this scumslip.
After we lynch Kookoo and they flip scum we need to take a look at Pisskop because they were probably misplaced as scum partner of Kookoo.
Lynch Kookoo
If Kookoo is some strong mafia power role I'd say the Screen accusations could be a bus; more so because they didn't claim ascetic Day 1; you just need to look which role died last night to know why this would be a terrible idea as Town; it is more likely to come from scum.
And this post makes the above post look like an oscar performance. Holy shit, it's been a long time since I've been in the normal queue. Seriously, wtf.

Awkward post, fr. 1 scum in Screen and Mohab at least.

In post 520, Srceenplay wrote:I didn’t claim aesthetic day 1?
You think that’s a scum claim?
It should be a confirmed town claim to anyone and easy to check.
Normal games are reviewed for balance. Godfather are not allowed in normals. Reviewers will not add a role that makes a virtual GF when they are banned.
This of all things is the most damning to Screenplay, by the way
. Screenplay has a lot of experience with normals, is friends with Boon, has been on this site for a long time, and most importantly of all as someone pointed out:
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=69859 is a thing. He has played with a mafia asc, been part of a lynch on a mafia asc, and that is not kind of the stuff you forget. He's trying to fake dumbslip town, "mafia asc can't be a thing", and there is quite literally no other valid explanation. Some people like me remember all of their past games in at least some detail, but people don't forget things like a role being possible and people who have 2 years experience playing normal don't call Ascetic a Godfather. This is a legitimate scum claim.

In post 522, Srceenplay wrote:Kookoobird should be the lynch for the day.
He is playing to scum mulch meta. Abrasive, character attacking, and pushing bull shit statements.
As the person on site with the literal best track record at reading Mulch, no. Kookoo is not playing to Mulch scum meta. At all.

This is incredibly disingenuous because they are

I don't see why they should townread pisskop or RB
The Day 1 of RB was way too weak. Little real scumreading.
The Day 1 of pisskop was really bad. They started the game, and then refused to vote in RVS until some votes were cast, late in post 49
They also have a bit too much of fluff in their posts.
Probably because Pisskop and RB townread them when you chucklefucks wanted to lynch them? That's what emotional players do when they're wagoned. They townread their defenders and scumread their attackers, with exception of course. That's most of the point of WKing.

In post 542, TwoInAMillion wrote:Between kookoo saying quick lynches are good and threatening to replace out when he was wagoned that seems likely scum to me.
Try reading the time's he replaced out objectively. He was putting up with a lot of shit, and he's made it clear he doesn't like this site and holds a very low opinion of it. He's probably just some other MU jackass who thinks he's better than us because their site has incompetent scum and a tighter circle aka more meta so their town winrates are higher.
Part 4: Reads
{Eddie, Mortfeld}
{Tchill, eth0s, Lovebird, RB}
{Piss, TIAM}
{NK15, Mohab}
{Srceen}
1) Mortfeld bleeds townie. He was super townie in our last game too. I was scum and had a perfect scum win, but he was the most obv town person itg. Then, he got desperado'd and became the most conf town person itg. Kappa. All of his pushes make sense. I follow his train of thought. This is similar to our last game, and he seems committed to this game in a way someone who despises scum doesn't. My ride or die.
2) Eth0s is probably the next most townie. Their catchup was really fuckin townie tonally and content wise. I don't agree with their pusehs really, and Kookoo's post to them post-sub was hilarious, they're definitely scumhunting though.
3) Lovebird can go next. I don't see why this was being pushed by Kookoo. Honestly, I can't restate enough how townie it was for her to never vote Kookoo despite how many easy ass chances she got. I skimmed the games linked by kookoo and the large, ye, I think she town. Her pushing that Kookoo should townread her from the metadive is pretty fuckin townie too the way it came out - implies she genuinely believes its her town game.
4) Tchill probably would've been 2 but yea, he's still almost certainly town. This game made me realize he's a lot better than I previously gave him credit for.
5) RB, well, I kept switching him between here and the tier below. TBH, I can kind of see some scum pings but a lot of his posts sound really genuine and I'm not really interested in lynching here for the sake of sanity as well. Good pushes.
- This is the end of my stronger townreads, and where the PoE pool starts. {piss, tiam, nk15, mohab, screen} contains all 3 scum i reckon, possible shot of RB but eh. -
7) Pisskop is the towniest in this pool by a fair bit I think... ish. He doesn't feel like our last game, but in Boon's large he also didn't feel like our last game and that's why his slot wasn't lynched in our last game until I hard bussed it. Iunno, I can see some of the push on his slot, he sounds kinda genuine. His posts voting Lovebird I don't love though, feels like jumping on an easy Kookoo push. Probably don't vote him today, but could see it as scum.
8) TIAM and I have a relationship, that's for sure. I'm gonna try really hard not to omgus you this game, but please try and extend the same courtesy to me - I appreciate you (and Tchill and now NK15) shifting your votes and letting me breathe. Yes, Screen, that is the play with subs. Yes, Screen, I know you know this. Yes, Screen, I am just typing this to posture how scummy you are to the other townies.
9) NK15 and Mohab can go together ish, because they're both similar ish. I think both kinda sound genuine and def. aren't scum together, but NK15 is awk and Mohab is nonsensical. I think its townie ish of him to start partner hunting immediately, implies he genuinely believes I'm scum? But then he proceeds to partner case people that could eassily be scum (screen and tiam iirc), which is actually bad because it "town clears" them on my town flip. Iunno. Ion like em. 1 scum here, not 2.
10) Screen. Case above. He's scum. Let's lynch it. If you don't like the case he's scum, like the case we need to policy Ascetic before lylo and we don't have a vig afaik and what better day than today. He's definitely scum, but there's that too. Basically, we are lynching this today and I want somebody to explain why they townread him if they do past "lol you're scum kookoo".
