You might've noticed Spartan already claimed BP, so you don't need to claim "not BP" anymore. We're just looking to see if anyone will counterclaim, the point being that if no one does, we can confidently say that Spartan is confirmed town. This is because there is almost no chance scum would take the 1/6 gamble that we are in setup 1 and fakeclaim BP.
If you are a doctor or cop, proceed as outlined in Plotinus's . If you're anything else, you should keep it to yourself.

@Assemble, Clemency is interpreting your differently than I did, and if he's right that could be a scumslip. So I'm interested to know what you meant by "sticking this game through to the end this time".

Semi-serious, though it could easily drop the 'semi', depending on response.

While you were not the only one questioning his opening post, you
were
the only one to provide much solid reasoning. Next post he votes you. If that isn't OMGUS (without the OMGUSer getting actually voted first) I'm not sure what qualifies.

I misread Spartan's claim. I was wondering why people were denying counterclaim. That clarifies, thanks.

@Zemaj, I asked because I thought your vote might've been RVS. Why do you think Assemble's vote on me was OMGUS and not normal RVS? Why do you call my "solid reasoning"? Do you believe that an SE not doing RVS in his first post is alignment indicative?
<snip>
I'll answer most obvious question first: I think anything that could be taken even slightly amiss
could be
alignment indicative. ;)

As I understand it, SE are weighted into Newbie games to give the newbs a general idea of the flow of things, and normal progression. To that end, a SE wouldn't just pop in, post a bit of chat, then cut out without at least going through the motions, I would think. Also comes to a point when he then pops back in, and just happens to RVS for the one person who called him specifically on what was at least slightly sloppy play. This is suspect in my book, and I strongly feel that ANY suspect posts should be pressed, as quickly as is possible.

As for that being 'solid reasoning', I meant that in that you actually put
some
reason, not just a nebulous statement alluding to a possible misplay or slip.

So yeah, I'm not going to piss in the wind with RVS when I have something tangible to go on. Call it personal preference... Or actual scum hunting over speccing and chatting, whichever works for you :P

As I stated earlier, I am at a loss for the meta specific to this site, so I'm just playing how I know... Probably be the death of me, but surviving to the end isn't my goal. Rooting out the scum, that is my goal.


Any particular reason you feel it necessary to question the guy pressing another player on an explained and (I believe) rational point?

A likely story...

Actually, TBH, no, I didn't. Red text up against the red trim washed out... Never noticed until I went back to reread your posts for that bit, and noticed trim line was wider than usual. Zoom did allow me to see it then, though.

Still, it is funny how that worked out for you, wouldn't you say? I like where my vote is FTB.

Then you said I provided much "solid reasoning", when all I did was ask why he didn't participate in RVS and then disappeared. You can see why this seems very off to me.
He explained the disappearance just fine.
I do, however, agree with your that him not "going through the motions" like usual is a peculiarity, and it's great your vote got us out of RVS.

Spoiler: response
You are mistaken if you think I looked very deep. He was the only player that had posted at the time, so I went through some of his games while I was waiting because I thought it'd be more useful than going through random ones. I wasn't looking for anything in particular.

However, one thing I noticed at school today:

He doesn't
always
RVS in his first post. At least in 1820 he was town and didn't RVS for many posts. I told zemaj it's peculiar coming from an SE. I never thought that meant it was AI, and now I'm even more confident.
Plotinus wrote:42 feels like you know that Clemency is town.
Spoiler: response
Could you elaborate on why you're interpreting it this way? If you look through Clemency's games you'll notice he is scumread in most (if not all) regardless of his alignment. I told him how he could improve his playstyle in order to be more easily accurately read by other players:
In post 42, Deimos27 wrote:If you're town, I'd like to remind you to be proactive. It's extremely important for the game that town gets townread by other town.
Do you disagree with this statement? I, at least, can't read anyone if they don't provide content.
Plotinus wrote:You seem pretty focused on assemble and your posts read as though you were pushing his wagon
Spoiler: response
Which posts read as though I'm pushing assemble specifically? I'm pressuring both sides of the argument, including zemaj:
Why do you think Assemble's vote on me was OMGUS and not normal RVS? Why do you call my 21 "solid reasoning"? Do you believe that an SE not doing RVS in his first post is alignment indicative?
Deimos27 wrote:How is is it "funny how that worked out" for him? Do you think he was lying?
I asked these questions because I didn't agree with his views on any of them.

I also currently have unanswered questions issued to Peaches and Xnadroj.
Plotinus wrote:but you're still on the XnadrojX train. Do you have any serious reads yet?
RVS is esentially over, but I have nowhere else to put my vote and unvoting isn't doing anything. Xnadroj is an okay candidate for pressure since he has only posted twice and neither time with any content. I hope he comes back to give his views on the game soon.

I have an early town lean on zemaj for the following reason:
Spoiler:
Assume Zemaj is scum

If Assemble is town:
I don't think scum would make the play he made: Taking town out of RVS for the purpose of pushing a small peculiarity on a person that will eventually flip town? It would look bad.

If Assemble is scum:
I don't think scum would make the play he made: Taking town out of RVS for the purpose of pushing a small peculiarity on his scumpartner.
It's worth mentioning this scenario (S vs S) is technically possible as a form of distancing, but I don't think that sort of distancing would include a hardbus from the outset.

Plus: As scum he could've just replied to my question in that his vote on Assemble wasn't serious, just RVS. And the game would've continued to stagnate.

So scum!zemaj just doesn't make as much sense to me as town!zemaj.

Lol look I find your tone and stances LAMIST as scumfuck. I'll be every bit as confident in my reads as I like; stop pushing people to conform to your opinions and style. Not sure if you're arrogant or just feigning ignorance; pushing people only works if they believe you mean it. Nit picking as a response to my push isn't going to make you more town in my eyes. Soz.

This post was responding to Clemency's . I didn't think it was certain Matrix6 would be replaced because there's been controversy over how good the strat is.

It's true that I want to be townread, but that applies for both alignments. LAMIST is only a scumtell when the accused is obsessed with
looking
town, more so than actively sorting and scumhunting. Which of my stances gives you that impression?
Whether you call it "pushing people to conform to your opinions" or not, I only recommend what I think is best for town. Telling everyone what your reads are on all the other players can be important if Assemble or I flip and you end up being wrong. It's not a lot of information, but there's no need to deny town it.

Finally, how am I nitpicking?
The only part I didn't respond to was:
CheekyTeeky wrote:Just saying in Clemency's defense that there are plenty of "right" ways to play mafia and very few wrong... I might be plagiarising mastin here.
How many ways mastin thinks there are of playing mafia right or wrong is irrelevant to whether proactivity is better for town than a lack of it.

You should have asked me that straight away, instead of defending yourself so much, then I would have known you are town, or objective at the very least. I didn't like his opening. I found you LAMIST. When I look at the interactions between you in RVS, it feels unnatural, and like a plan scum discussed pre-game to distance themselves. I also don't like how you've been reacting to my push and my read.

What do others think about these entrances? Do they look related or not so? Does Assemble's 2nd post feel genuine?

Loopdan wrote:There is a relatively new strategy first proposed in a Newbie game by Radiant Cowbells. It is quickly becoming the standard way to begin Newbie games (at least until they change the setup to something other than Matrix6).

We are going to mass-claim "1-Shot Bulletproof"(BP) or "Not BP". To do this properly we need everyone to claim immediately.

Your next post needs to contain either a claim of 1-Shot Bulletproof or "Not BP"
.

Do not claim (or no-claim) any other role at this time
.

Reasons
:
1) Scum often attempt to fakeclaim bulletproof. By claiming early, your claim has maximum credibility and take that avenue away from Scum in the later game.
2) Although it does not technically confirm the player as town due to the possibility of a Jailkeeper only setup, the lack of a counterclaim gives the bulletproof townie considerable leverage because scum fakeclaiming bulletproof have terrible odds at doing so successfully.
3) If there is no Bulletproof Townie, that information will help us in the next phase of breaking the game.

Then what?

If there is a BP claim, there are three roles that can counterclaim it - BP, cop, and doctor.

If you are the real bulletproof or a cop, the correct way to counter a fake bulletproof claim is simply to say, "I counterclaim.", regardless of which of those two you are.

If you are a doctor, wait until everyone else has refused to counterclaim before you speak up! Ideally, the cop will counterclaim and you can stay in the shadows protecting them.

If there is no bulletproof claim, the next step is Tracker claim, which we can deal with if/when we get there.

It's not really calling it bad because I didn't really like your entrance either; also thought that you were making excuses.

I think that it is pretty unlikely for scum to plan out their RVS in that degree of detail. In other queues where players are more likely to know each other and there aren't so many unknown players as there are in newbies, you might see some pregame discussion of which players are threats and how to deal with them.

But, uh, with my track record lately I don't want to shut down something you're pursuing with a repeat of the BEC incident.

Cheeky, is it too early for me to be townreading Clemency? Because I kinda am.

Just look at his ISO. It's all lurky non-content, and apart from his very first post (which was nothing but a greeting) and very latest post (which was inaccurate and right after a prod), he hasn't posted at all except when directly questioned or attacked. And even those posts haven't included anything but the necessary response. He's done zero sorting or scumhunting, apart from maybe his latest "wondering" about my nonexistent push on his RVS vote.

Wtf , did you really just wall all that for no reason? Grrr. You're missing the current point Assemble. The point is that your actions changed during RVS based on people questionning them as scummy. For instance Deimos asked you why you didn't RVS (which Deimos later admitted you don't always do based on your meta), then you RVS. Later Zemaj says your RVS looks like OMGUS, and then you unvote... your voting actions look like you're appeasing people rather than using your vote to scum hunt. There is no town reason to let people dictate who, when and why you vote. Why were your actions like this in RVS? Why are you so far off point? If you're town you're making a mess of us reading you properly.

Seriously you just put together a shizz load of posts, with a sentence about percentages on a point that is, again, irrelevant. You haven't provided any insight into the posts, it looks like you're trying to distract us from the fact that you're unwilling to provide us with any reads or useful info.

I'm not an early game player, but I have still managed to provide some reads (see my twice-expressed scumread on zemaj, though I botched it the first time).
You do have a point with the appeasement, though. I'm probably still a little paranoid after being lynched in LYLO by someone whose only justification was that I apparently looked scummy due to my lurking, never mind the holes in the other guy's claim you could drive a wagon through.

In post 102, Deimos27 wrote:What do you base your Clemency townreads on, Cheeky & Plot?
Response to the part of this that I snipped: okay, fair enough.

Response to this question: Cheeky and I, and now RC (hi RC!) just got out of Clemency's first scumgame. He had a lot of trouble just posting and figuring out what to say and how to pretend to scumhunt. He blamed this on how he'd been treated in his first game, saying people had nitpicked him too much for expressing opinions. He could express reads when prompted but only reads that lukewarmly agreed with the person he was talking to. He could not generate game advancing content without being prompted to do so.

In this game, he has generated some reads, all by himself,and shared them unprompted he can and does post without people saying hi to him first, and his reads have a little depth and paranoia in them. He probably has learnt some from his first experience playing scum but I think he may be outside of his scumrange already.

@Plot, pls no you can townread me for literally anything else I've done but TRing me for being retarded is just.... weird. I mean , being retarded is NAI and I can (and often am) be retarded as either alignment. So are you calling my vote bad or not? Also I never implied I wanted to be excused from being scumread, I just said I'm going to ruin the game. I mean you could interpret it othwerwise I guess, but if you want to take my word for it, that was not my intention.

UNVOTE:
VOTE: Assemble

96 pings me because it's inaccurate and basically a discredit. Feels like self-conscious player.
I should have replied to this when it happened but I really didn't have time and I wanted to reply to things in order. It's not okay to use the r word in general and it's also against the site rules.

I was calling your vote hypocritical. Saying you're going to ruin the game with bad reads is making an exuse for not trying harder to get good ones, letting yourself off the hook pre-emptively. It's parallel to your reason for voting Cheeky. I think it's a decent reason as far as reasons go early on and I don't think hypocrisy is a scumtell.

will get to more stuff in a bit
The failure mode of clever is asshole.
