In a way I have to thank you; my decision was somewhat split, and I might have chosen the wrong person if you hadn't confirmed yourself as scum.
There's nothing that says that a fake can't beat the real thing.

You must not imagine that for beings like you and us there can be laughter. The low men laugh, and we envy them. But for us, the higher ones, there is no laughter, only an unending vigil, purely serious, stretching on into the night.

It gets the game going, and it forces people to take stances early on, for instance about TesXX's behavior. That's both something that moves the game along and is good to analyze and re-read in D2 or D3.

It's sub-optimal to No Lynch day 1, because the lynch is the method that town uses to acquire information. Without a lynch Day 1, we have the same information as when we started, only we're a townie down after the mafia kill. You should put your vote on someone!

In post 425, Accountant wrote:Alright, I'm heading back to sleep before my headache kills me. Sliiightly uncomfortable with the speed of the wood wagon but it's still an amazing wagon. I thought perhaps the most damning part was that Wood's reaction to Grey's analysis felt very irritated, like he's scum who doesn't understand why he's being wagoned and is frustrated that he's getting lynched for the wrong reasons.
In post 707, Accountant wrote:
In post 503, -Grey- wrote:I'll lynch B over A 9 times out of 10.
It honestly depends on the player. Against a super calm player like Magna/Thor I'd expect B more and would probably lynch them if they had response A

But I think the scummiest thing about woods' reaction to his wagon here was the fact that the phrasing of his question seemed very caught for wrong reasons. It was like "can you guys tell me what I did wrong?? My disguise was perfect! Why am I being killed?" more than anything. I'm also unsure why town!woods here only interacts with grey

In post 716, Accountant wrote:It's hard for me this game because I was up to a pretty okay start, and then I sort of got consumed with apathy and it's making it difficult for me to play.

My thoughts:

1) Lighthaze: you seem extremely willing to jump back and forth between people and hammer basically anyone. I remember you asking if you could hammer multiple times. Why are you so eager to vote-hop rather than stick to a big scumread and push it?
2) Grey: Talk to me about your thoughts on lighthaze. Your read on him hopped so fast I'm having trouble keeping track.
3) Aj the Epic: There's probably at least one scum in Light/Woods/Falco, and I think the most likely is Woods. But I wanted to ask you why you had no response to people talking about post 427? Because I'd like to hear you talk about it.

Falco hasn't done enough at this point for me to have much confidence in a read on that slot. Given the wagon on him, it's probably the right time for Falco to post a full reads list.

I'm disappointed Accountant is a non-factor right now (yes I know the same can be said for me but at least my name has come up on the last five pages). I know we probably can't sort Accountant today, but I'd like more content from them to at least have something to look at day2.

Yes, and you aren't wood's partner either. If you read the end of day 1 you'll see I was gunning for a wood lynch and pushing it even when others jumped off the wagon. I even said I'd hammer wood after he claimed BP, and provided evidence that the BP claim was inconsistent with wood's early posts. While I was doing that Accountant was trying to line up a next day mislynch by saying if wood flipped scum then AJ was his buddy.

No. Optimal play is to keep him off L-1 so he can't end the day early by self-hammering.

It was a genuine lapse in memory - I'm an IC, but I don't always remember to factor in everything. If you really thought this was a scumslip, you'd have pushed it earlier - you're just bringing it up now in a last ditch attempt to make me look bad.

Also you're providing proof that I know what self hammering is and why mafia do it, which was never in dispute - I said as such that I forgot about the possibility, not that I didn't know about it. This is a pretty flimsy attempt to try to make me look bad for a genuine error.

I did bring it up earlier. I'm the one that pointed it out when it happened and said it should be discussed.

This isn't a matter of not remembering "to factor in everything." You were proposing an "optimal strategy" of leaving confirmed scum at L-1 when you clearly know that is not optimal.

Optimal play is indeed to put caught scum at close to lynch, gamesolve until deadline, and then hammer. That's to the best of my knowledge, and you can't spin that as some kind of scum plot, because, well, ICs aren't allowed to lie about optimal play. So it was a genuine mistake.

You dropped the subject soon after bringing it up - if it really was a damning scumslip, and you thought so, you'd have pushed harder on it. Heck, or even bringing it up earlier today. You didn't because you don't actually care about hunting scum, you care about looking like you are and throwing shade on others in LyLo.

It gets the game going, and it forces people to take stances early on, for instance about TesXX's behavior. That's both something that moves the game along and is good to analyze and re-read in D2 or D3.

It's sub-optimal to No Lynch day 1, because the lynch is the method that town uses to acquire information. Without a lynch Day 1, we have the same information as when we started, only we're a townie down after the mafia kill. You should put your vote on someone!

He 1) is scum and Yay for the town. 2) he's a VT and although it's bad, we didn't lose much or 3) he's a power role and we're terribly screwed for the rest of the game.

While he is a huge SR. I don't really know if the possibility of the 3rd option should derail us off.

In post 425, Accountant wrote:Alright, I'm heading back to sleep before my headache kills me. Sliiightly uncomfortable with the speed of the wood wagon but it's still an amazing wagon. I thought perhaps the most damning part was that Wood's reaction to Grey's analysis felt very irritated, like he's scum who doesn't understand why he's being wagoned and is frustrated that he's getting lynched for the wrong reasons.

In post 503, -Grey- wrote:I'll lynch B over A 9 times out of 10.
It honestly depends on the player. Against a super calm player like Magna/Thor I'd expect B more and would probably lynch them if they had response A

But I think the scummiest thing about woods' reaction to his wagon here was the fact that the phrasing of his question seemed very caught for wrong reasons. It was like "can you guys tell me what I did wrong?? My disguise was perfect! Why am I being killed?" more than anything. I'm also unsure why town!woods here only interacts with grey

In post 716, Accountant wrote:It's hard for me this game because I was up to a pretty okay start, and then I sort of got consumed with apathy and it's making it difficult for me to play.

My thoughts:

1) Lighthaze: you seem extremely willing to jump back and forth between people and hammer basically anyone. I remember you asking if you could hammer multiple times. Why are you so eager to vote-hop rather than stick to a big scumread and push it?
2) Grey: Talk to me about your thoughts on lighthaze. Your read on him hopped so fast I'm having trouble keeping track.
3) Aj the Epic: There's probably at least one scum in Light/Woods/Falco, and I think the most likely is Woods. But I wanted to ask you why you had no response to people talking about post 427? Because I'd like to hear you talk about it.

Intent to hammer was opportunistic and disavowing responsibility.
His prior read on player he intended to hammer was null (, )
Reads list was risk averse.
Like Grey said there is no game-solving (or even any genuine curiosity about the game-state) evident in wood's game.
In post 635, Loopdan wrote:I'm not convinced that woodboy's push on light makes him town. Even though light is townread by some, he's still low hanging fruit if you consider it's picking a fight with an inexperienced player. And I've been open that I'm not in agreement that light is obvtown.

Falco hasn't done enough at this point for me to have much confidence in a read on that slot. Given the wagon on him, it's probably the right time for Falco to post a full reads list.

I'm disappointed Accountant is a non-factor right now (yes I know the same can be said for me but at least my name has come up on the last five pages). I know we probably can't sort Accountant today, but I'd like more content from them to at least have something to look at day2.

Tes, I'm literally not allowed to lie about game theory as an IC, and I'm not unethical to intentionally do a bad job of ICing just to get a very slim advantage.
There's nothing that says that a fake can't beat the real thing.

You must not imagine that for beings like you and us there can be laughter. The low men laugh, and we envy them. But for us, the higher ones, there is no laughter, only an unending vigil, purely serious, stretching on into the night.

@Tes-- I can point out some scummy associations between Accountant and woodboy, but honestly Accountant has played a pretty clean game. If the Accountant/Woodboy associations were really obvious I would have had a much easier time voting today (or even pushing Accountant instead of Light yesterday).

I think you are better off by trying to determine who between us is more likely town-motivated based on our play.
