well everyone bar Acryon has posted, I was hoping to wait for everyone, but I'm too impatient to wait for the prod reaction etc.
Anyway, firstly
UNVOTE: Profii
It obviously wasn't a serious vote - however, if you lot decide it was super scummy and move to lynch me - that's ok but before the hammer, I can tell you it's an ok play for town but definitely not the best... consider that a breadcrumb for later.
Anyway, I don't like RVS, so seeing as I had the chance at first post, I thought I'd do something to generate reactions and to me it looks like we are starting to move away from RVS on page 1 so I think we are doing ok.
All I have really achieved is a couple of reactions:
Firstly, rb's was quite a big one. I really don't like that fake 'first' post either.
Thor didn't RVS - by technically, sheeping isn't random
Flavour Leaf is an alt for Boon who I believe self votes often, he avoided me.
I think we just save these reactions for later, perhaps these people will incriminate themselves later.
however, I like the follow up post by Thor here.
I don't like
Sauce trying to role speculate.
eth0s posting about the rules way after his original post - a bit of a forced town slip, as obviously, mafia don't need to read the rules to know there is day talk.
I can't make my mind up over rb's reaction without WIFOM'ing over it - he could be scum hunting and call my play a double bluff, i.e. "profii self votes, profii says first voter is scum starting a wagon - therefore, the bluff is scum!profii uses the play to cast shade on whoever gets on the wagon and lead the town that way"
If RB hadn't made that weird 'first' fake post then I would have said he was town trying to scum hunt me but was just wrong. But because of that weird post I am now thinking he could just as easily be scum double bluffing my play to cast shade on me. Time will tell, FoS for now.- profii

Put your selves in my shoes. You self voted and got the reactions. Who do you vote for?In post 28, Thor665 wrote:
Also, if your entire self vote was a gambit for reads (barf) and you got reactions that made you question rb and other posts to question eth0s and Sauce.In post 24, Sauce wrote:@Thor maybe
If you can draw a firm read out of that, then you are a better player than me.
If you are saying I should commit to someone, it would probably be you. Quietly sneaking on the self lynch is an easy way to form a wagon, which is something scum will want.
Asking Flavour Leaf to sheep you, further backs this up
VOTE: Thor655
I still don't like Sauce's posts, so could place a lynch there quite easily too- profii

doesnt matter you are town. You are the main person pushing me because it’s the normal reaction to a self vote (as per your wiki lol)In post 46, Thor665 wrote:
If I am only quiet in comparison to rb - how does that make my quiet scum intentioned?In post 34, profii wrote:quiet - relative to rb.
as I said, flipping me is fine but if I get to intent I'll explain why.
I did make a presumption that any expressed FOS is worth exploring - is it your intention to *not* follow up on your thoughts?In post 38, Sauce wrote:I'm not aware of any plans pertaining to any supposed issues or indecision with regard to whether the expressed FOS ought to induce the emotional stimuli you inquired about.
Why even enter into that discussion? It would be an admittance of low quality play - so, therefore there is presumably a reason you're doing nothing.
What is it?
It is assuredly the case.In post 38, Sauce wrote:But that's not even where you draw the line, at least I seem to pick up an additional insinuation pertaining to a potential unwillingness to investigate this fictional unresolved issue, and frankly I'd just welcome you dropping this thing as opposed to asking you to elaborate on whether or not that is the case and what it entails.
You mean you'd like me to offer updates on how I think I'm town?In post 40, Sauce wrote:
No translation was necessary. I simply expressed what was implied, reversed 'you are' and attached a question mark to it, to point out that you didn't include yourself into the list of players who are supposedly trying to solve the game and generate actual value.In post 28, Thor665 wrote:How do you translate what I said to get that conclusion?
I could do it - seems stupid.
So your question was just sturm and drang then?
Refer to above first posited question to you in this post then.
Why is that?In post 42, Sauce wrote:Needless to say I don't find speculating about the amount of mafia players in this game to be a non-point.
I see no particular gain in it today - what gain do you see?
(I will clarify that I'm not daft enough to call it scummy - but it is apparently wasted air)
I did it because the game state needed a kick in the pants to prevent my personal boredom.
Why is making a wall on Page 1 scummy?
First person to push back on you is going to push you as scum tomorrow for lynching me (as they know we are both town so they can call you instrumental in the mislynch)
And that was dunker- I had to call you until someone pushed you as scum- profii

You are right that my experiment didn’t really yield anything definitive so I figure if you are scum and you are just pushing me as a mislynch today, you probably wouldn’t go so hard knowing I’ll flip town tonight, I’m not sure what the cunning plan would be to talk your way out of everyone getting on your case as the instigator of that, so you can only confidently push on me if you don’t truly know my role (ie are town)In post 48, Thor665 wrote:I'm not holding my breath on the accuracy of that - but it's not like Dunker is radiating town to me either, so rock on.
It's either a gambit I dislike or you hard aborting from a push you realize isn't working for you.
Therefore anyone who is discrediting you now, in theory could be setting up you for the lynch tomorrow. We will see where that goes...- profii

It comes over as a wall post that you would hope most people will gloss past when they realise it’s directed at the FOS’er but it was a total shutdown for said FOS’er - that doesn’t matter though, they suspected you anyway.
But given the post you quoted from other game apparently that’s your style. The style wasn’t particularly AI but the shutdown aimed at Thor was scummy imo- profii

if you were going to do it, you’d have done it.
You probably wouldn’t of called me a dumbass either but that’s irrelevant to the game
The point is you are so smart that only you can see the benefit of discussing game setup or directing the conversation towards who has what PR - everyone else is so stupid we live in fear of slipping the town PRs to the scum so maybe you need to give us a lesson on what you want to hear from us- profii

Then another vote, again with no rationale and some aversion to wall posts.

I can't place rb.
I self vote, he pushes
people start to notice flavors posting style = he pushes
saucy starts being saucy with the dictionary whilst posting = he pushes
all of the above are potential wagons but could also argue scum-style to pressure with a vote etc... It just sends me down a WIFOM hole that I can't decide on.- profii

yeah I think I was in that game. His style was pretty chilled but I'm not sure he wagon hopped so much, I'd have to check
In other news, looking at Saucys (that's going to stick btw) ISO he obviously has posted the most words however, the only read he seems to provide in the entire thing is that he would prefer to leave his vote on Thor (which was RVS) than move it to me. Other than that. Nil content.- profii

Flavour Leaf is an interesting one.
I look at his reads and given their timing I look at whose moved or appeared in his lists and find myself thinking 'yes I see why player x is in category y' etc.
The risk is that because he provides no reasoning that I am looking at posts and filling in the reasoning myself. Would I have considered those posts scummy if someone hadn't pointed out there was something scummy there to pick out? I will never know now.
Does that mean I am being lead? It's a risky one, despite me largely looking at the reads and thinking they are ok.
interesting...- profii

You FoS Thor, but no follow-up. Profii is one of your best townreads, who is townreading me (apparently your biggest scumread) but you seem not to be concerned about this.
You initially make a vote on me as OMGUS, but now apparently it's that I'm scummy - so which part is scummy? You're neither providing reads or any kind of useful analysis.
In contrast to me, who is making clear reads and pushing in the direction of those reads, you are making barely any reads, except when asked three times by someone you townread.
If you townread them, why so reluctant to cooperate?- profii

When I ask a question and you just say “no” you’re useless.
However, let’s give you one last chance. Look at Dunkers ISO carefully, he has actually provided a variety of indications on how he reads people despite barely reaching a ratio of 1 sentence per post in this game
Also look at Lalendras ISO - although she hasn’t given much away in terms of reads, the main point to focus on is her exception to FL reads - do you think Lalendra is right to take such an exception?
Thoughts please... do consider carefully, your worth to town depends on it- profii

What I'm saying is claiming someone having a derth of town reads in a game where, objectively, half the game is playing in a way to avoid givingopinions and thus making themselves near unreadable and anti-town is not a really compelling case.
@Sauce - you're still saying nothing and using a lot of words to do it and insulting people and then being shocked you get "trashtalked".

I agree i don’t think it’s SvS but the possibility of TvT is still there for me - given Saucys irritating play and Thor being fairly offensive it’s reasonable these 2 styles would just clash tunnel on each otherIn post 360, Lalendra wrote:I think at the moment, I'm leaning towards dunkerdoodles, hyung and either Thor or Sauce. Dunkerdoodles because I haven't seen much meaningful content from them, and they are getting townread by people for what seems like very little to no reason. Hyung because they haven't posted enough for me to really get a read on them and partly PoE. Thor/Sauce because I don't believe this is scum theater or TvT, it feels like it's genuine, but I'm having a hard time figuring out which one is town and which one is scum who is spitballing.
