Ok, so I had promised to do some analysis on the three players I don't have a town read on.
Musicbox has a habit of not adding much actual content. Take a look at her day 1 play:
- The top suspect day 1 was Oath. There was the L-1 wagon, Oath's VT claim, self vote, and eventually the deadline lynch. So what does musicbox have to say on Oath? There's post #118, where she asks Oath not to self vote but doesn't give an opinion on Oath's alignment. There's post 146, where upon being explicitly asked her opinion of Oath, she gives an answer that doesn't go strongly either way, but kind of implies that she doesn't really believe Oath's selfvoting is a scumgambit. And that's it really.
- So, who does she express suspicion of during day 1? She mentions Komala in post #118, saying that she'll explain more later that evening or the next morning. Where does she come back to that? In post #213, well into day 2, where she remembers that she never followed up on her promise to explain why she was scumreading Komala... And then proceeds not to explain why she was scumreading Komala.
- Let's look at her other accusation in post #118, Nonny. She debates with Nonny quite a bit during day 1, but never makes an actual accusation against her. The only thing Musicbox has to say in #118 is gut. Which allows her to be happily alone on her wagon, with no chance whatsoever of anyone joining her there.
- Finally, there's Red/NM. The slot that she's voting at the end of the day. What does she have to say about them? If she has to choose one of the wagons she'll choose that one (#118) because RC was scummier then invisibility (#148). And that's all the reasoning I can find here.
Now admittedly, day 2 is slightly better. She actually gives solid reasoning in
#205 on her vote for Nonny. Her reasoning in
#236 is meager though. Not_Mafia has his reputation for a reason. If his reputation is that he doesn't explain himself, then that's the case both when he's town and when he's scum. So why assume it comes from scum in this game?
Overall, I can easily see her playstyle coming from scum. Give opinions, but make sure they're not going to cause any waves. That way, when the others have to decide who to vote for, they'll simply forget you'll exist.
Invisibility has the same problem, but worse. There are only three posts he made during day 1 that actually give us some insight in his thoughts on the other players. There's
post #86, where he explains he's wishywashy on Cheesy. There's
#123, which actually gives some reasoning for why he feels Oath's town. And finally, there's
#133. That last post tells us his opinions on everyone, but the reasoning is weak enough that he can still change his opinion in whatever direction he chooses.
Basically, Invisibility gives me the feeling that he isn't really doing anything much. I can't even make an overview for him as I did for musicbox, as most of his posts are low content oneliners. Which makes the "n_m not doing anything is kinda scummy" in
#234 quite hypocritical. If he believes it's good for scum to not do anything, then his not doing anything could be quite intentional.
However, it's Nonny's voting record that to me is worse then the active lurking of either music box or Invisibility. The major alternative to an Oath lynch was invisibility. Nonny pressure voted him in
#121. This brought invisibility at L-2 (magna, kmd and Nonny) whereas Oath was only at L-3 (Komala, who was inactive, and Oath's self vote). However,
exactly one day later, Nonny unvotes. Her reasoning? She'll have limited access around deadline, and isn't confident in her vote to leave it there. So what does she do? In
#161, still during her V/LA around deadline, she votes Oath, bringing the momentum back in that direction. And her reasoning? It's the classic scum copout. She doesn't really believe Oath is scummy, but feels Oath is playing badly, and doesn't want to risk the WIFOM.
On day 2, she's doing exactly the same. Her main points against Not_Mafia (as listed in
#274) are his lack of content and anti-town playstyle.
Basically, it seems she isn't really scumhunting, but instead is attacking players who are playing poorly. Which is exactly what scum want to do when they want to push mislynches.
It's made worse by
#149, which basically feels like she's feeling out a Not_Mafia hammer while avoiding all responsibility for it.
There is no 'a' in Michel.
