Let's see what Michele has to say about Leone flipping town, after claiming multiple times that it was impossible.
To address some other points that came up after I was gone for the end of D1:
Dan (507): Yes, I did say that I'd need to choose between you/Michele at some point. In 385, I say Michele is the more likely maf out of you two. Also see my post 465 where I still say Michele is my second biggest scumread (after Leone), based on his interaction with you. Particularly now that Leone has flipped town, Michele is my biggest scumread and I feel better about you as a result.
Racer (572/577): Literally 1 minute apart...first votes for Leone, then says maf would "hop on a mislynch" - you mean like you just did?
TYG: Already addressed by multiple other people, outright stating that you're withholding reads because they might hurt town? No, withholding information hurts town more - we need all we can get. Seriously, that's the point of this damn game. Finally posts reads 4 minutes before EoD, most of which are "not sure yet"
Zoran: Immediately jumped on TYG's "not gonna post reads because I'll hurt town" post, as it deserved. Helped jumpstart the counterwagon there (I think Dan already had his vote there before, but he was the only one for a while) even if TvK killed it. Also the only person besides me to get scumread on Michele from the exchanges with Dan, which I also mention in 385.
Based on the above, as of right now my 2 biggest townreads are Dan/Zoran, and my 2 biggest scumreads are Michele/Lewis. If Dan/Zoran are town, then the wagon on Lewis is gonna look extremely clean, unless maf!Timur decided to hop on there to avoid being on the Leone mislynch (definitely something to consider, though I don't have any strong feelings about him one way or the other yet).
Can't believe the mafia went after Sportsguy, I guess they assumed he wouldn't be protected? Strange that they went after somebody who had a bit of suspicion on D1, but obviously there wasn't going to be protection there. Now that we've lost our cop, we'll need better scumhunting from all of us. Which brings me to my final question...where in the hell is the scumhunter uniter? He still hasn't posted since after I posted 495.
I like that he called out YS there, but then again everyone wanted YS to contribute more. Says Alak is his biggest scumread, thinks one of Dan/Alak is probably Maf, more likely Alak. At that point, Dan wasn't cleared, but he was considered Town by most people iirc. It's kinda smiliar with the Alak/Kyle has to be m/t theory now...since kyle flipped Town, John will probably push for Alak now?
With all that interaction, I think m/m is pretty unlikely for that pairing. Either m/t or t/t.
P.A.F.625 wrote on 08/13/16 at 06:49:13:Okay, first off, I'm amazed people didn't care much about my last post. It's something I thought quickly, and, after some thoughts before sleep, I realized it would look scummy.
But eh... I'll keep my word.
[vote]ALAKTORN[/vote]
You have some explaining to do.
You realized it would look scummy? Before going to sleep I would hope that we lynched Maf, not about if I looked scummy for voting...also, it seems like he just votes Alak because he has to.
At this point, I'm surprised no one pushed for a wagon on alak ever. PAF and John both had Alak very high on their list, and yes they voted for him, but they never insisted or tried harder to get him as a lynching candidate. I think if anything John tried harder, PAF just follows the trend every day.

I think we should take a look at people attacking/voting Dan D1 as well.
I think that's a good idea. However, I also think that mafia might have put one person on the other side of the Alaktorn/Dan exchange. If Alaktorn is town, John is mafia and the person on the other side of that exchange.
However, despite me thinking that Alaktorn is town because of how hard he pushed the 100% certainty of Leone and me being m/m, paranoid Alaktorn would make the SG night kill with SG coming out in the beginning of the game and accusing Alaktorn.
Pretty sure Alaktorn/John is t/m one way or the other.
Dan saying Alak/John is probably t/m based on the interaction. Just to keep it in mind.
DansGame wrote on 08/13/16 at 07:06:04:Scummier than yesterday for me:
TYG - 95% sure he is mafia. Note that in addition to everything that was already said about him, this is what he said about Sportsguy last night:
LewisRichards wrote on 08/12/16 at 18:26:13:Sportsguy the racer exchange with him was interesting... slight maf lean
John - He really only pushed on the obvious lynch candidate yesterday, Leone, and now he comes out at the beginning of the day and thought the pressure should be on Alaktorn more than TYG. If he's mafia at some point the mafia will have to put some suspicion on other members of the mafia and he would have looked even worse to me had he not said TYG looked scummy at all, so I don't give him town points for that.
Alaktorn - Just by virtue of the SG night kill.
TvK - Started the Leone wagon (flipped town), stopped the TYG (my top scumread) wagon in its tracks. However I feel like he knows that the Leone wagon flipping town would look really good for me and Zoran in that situation if TYG were lynched and flips mafia, so that makes me lean a little less on him.
If TYG were lynched and flips town it makes TvK more likely mafia to me. Alternatively, maybe Zoran is mafia.Townier than yesterday:
Zoran - his vote was never on Leone, he was going after PAF who I think is town, then he was the only person to join me on the TYG wagon when no one else was going.
In my mind, however, there is a world where Zoran and TvK planned that TYG wagon interaction as mafia. Not throwing that out completely yet.
Dan insisting on the fact that if TYG flips Town TvK would be much more likely Maf. And who dies N2? Dan...
Maybe Dan was on the right track and that's why they killed him? Even tho YS got lynched, TYG basically got cleared by that. I can definitely see that, TvK/John pairing probability going up for me right now.

Either a horrible typo or TMIing.
lol I was confused when I read it. I don't think TvK sucks enough to do a slip though. Maybe just some bad luck...
Defending TvK here? Anyone can slip, doesn't matter how good you are. The probability gets lower the more experience you have, but I wouldn't just rule it out because someone is good. Could be m/m defending.
DansGame wrote on 08/13/16 at 09:06:10:TvK wrote on 08/13/16 at 08:55:55:A general question to everyone: 8 people were on the Leone wagon. Only 5 were not. Sportsguy was on Leone, but he turned out town. Leone obviously wasn't on himself. I kind of want everyone to answer this question: how many members of the mafia team do you expect to be on Leone? And what does that learn us about the counterwagon on TYG?
Probably two mafia is my guess. My guess is that there is 1 and probably only 1 mafia between Yoshistar, Zoran, and Zwiebel. I don't think PAF or Racer jumps on the Leone wagon late as mafia if the other two mafia are already on it. I'll have to think more about it though.
I won't be as active this Saturday as I was all day yesterday probably, I'm gonna do some karting now and then I'm going out later. Plus, there are a couple people I don't have great reads on yet and I want to see how their posting develops today.
Strengthens my theory that maf killed Dan because he was too close. He said that he thinks one Maf is inside {Yoshistar, Zoran, Zwiebel}, which is probably correct(unless Zoran is a god). Keep in mind, he also voted for TvK and tried to push for him(even if it was just for pressure). I think they would definitely feel pressured from him.

I think the SG kill is something Dan would do though, didn’t he go for Lafungo in Shock’s first game? But Kyle was also part of that Mafia team.
One thing I will agree with, I don't think the SG kill happens in a team where all the mafia players are inexperienced. I think there is at least 1 "experienced" player on the team making that kill. Weird to me then that Kyle brought up the possibility of the mafia team being PAF, Racer, and TYG. Also weird that TvK's four strongest town leans were 4 of the most experienced players. If he was town he would be adding himself as a 5th very experienced player. Does TvK town really come up with those reads and not bring up the SG kill?
I want to hear everyone give their analysis of TvK. Is he mafia?
He's playing different from other games. I really feel like this time around TvK is Maf trying to play the same to confuse others, but I'm getting the vibes of Maf.
Did that make any sense?
This post just seems genuine to me, also there's a lot of truth to what he says. Why would he say such a thing then they're both maf? Racer/TvK pairing more unlikely to me.
TvK wrote on 08/13/16 at 10:20:34:Racer727 wrote on 08/13/16 at 10:13:23:I feel like the way this wagon started is the first way TvK mentioned it. TvK starts, town members join, then TYG and Kyle join in, other Maf. Again, just a theory, as IO'm leaning more towards YS being a Maf instead of Kyle.
Please please please. You're entire maf read of me is based off of a gut feeling or something like that. I don't know how long you've spent searching for substantial evidence against me, but you weren't able to find any. Please please please, at least consider the fact that I could be town and look at this wagon from a fresh angle. What can you see then?
Is that actual frustration? Racer says YS is more likely maf than kyle and he has suspicions on TvK, trying to stop his thought process from getting them both lynched? Racer gettin a lot more Town cred right now reading back to this.
P.A.F.625 wrote on 08/13/16 at 10:22:30:Hey, remember sportsguy saying that he thought people that were asking lots of questions "too good of a townie"? Well, look at TvK, and now SG is dead...
TvK is currently a small maf lean for me, close to neutral.
Jumps on TvK, but only gives him "a small maf lean, close to neutral". Could be bussing. Esp since he doesn't follow up on it.

I have this thread opened in a tab 24/7. I will read this thread every once in a while even when I'm not posting. If I keep on posting, I won't have the time to refresh my mnd and think of new angles to look at the game. As you can see in the cgi page, my actvity is consistent, and when there are gaps of me not posting, I still try to address as many posts as I can when I return. If this is an argument, then a lot of people deserve tons of pressure at this point.
Hmm... have to agree with this, I sometimes spend A LOT of time rereading.
Also Racer, haven't you given enough pressure on TVK yet? As much as TVK had none on D1, I thought you agreed in putting pressure on the most inactive as well.
I suddenly thought about the chance of Racer being coached by maf. Is his experience on his 2 games beside this one enough for something like this? TVK is now man's target, if he's town and you ignore people's suspicion on him...idk, but worth the thought. Bolded the important part. First he says he gives TvK a small maf lean, then he 360's and says Racer is maybe maf for pressuring TvK? I don't understand.
ALAKTORN wrote on 08/13/16 at 13:47:24:TvK is jumping really late on the YS wagon. It looks like damage control bussing.
I kinda wish we were playing blitz, it takes too long to get any real information. I just wish we were done with this lynch (either TYG or YS it’s looking like, so far) to get to the point. On that note, when will D2 end? Shock needs to put a clock or something in the OP…
Makes Alak/TvK more unlikely imo.Could be bussing, but why point that out if you're both m/m? Might as well just not post anything to that if you're both maf. Good point on TvK.
P.A.F.625 wrote on 08/13/16 at 14:21:31:Okay, I see some pressure on YS. I'd usually warn that most of his "scummy" behavior is just being a noob and there's no point in risking another noob mislynch... however some of the things pointed out caught my attention... let me reread for a moment to see if I can make a conclusion...
Notice, this happens JUST when TvK jumped on the YS wagon...I'm pretty sure at that point Maf gave up on YS and just tried to throw him under the bus to gain Town cred. Is it really coincidence that happens just at about the same time for them to change opinions? I think this is one of the most important things I found. Makes PAF/TvK very likely for me.P.A.F.625 wrote on 08/14/16 at 04:49:37:Okay, I'll keep my vote on TYG, he seems the most likely to be maf. His weird behavior on D1, being inactive and only commenting on people on the spotlight at first; then he wasn't consistent on his leans and his vote. Then on D2 he seems to refuse giving his reads at first and then seems to distort some of the interactions and ideas by some people in his benefit. I don't think he's this stupid...
Besides, I wouldn't risk lynching neither YS nor TvK, for nearly opposite reasons: YS sucks so much at this, his "scummy" behavior might just be him not taking the game seriously or just his natural behavior; TvK because, if he's town, then we've lost one of our key players.
Again, he says TvK is kinda scummy, YS is scummy, but don't vote them out, vote TYG instead! At least he gives arguments for it...still, certainly doesn't look good to me.
P.A.F.625 wrote on 08/14/16 at 05:21:31:TvK wrote on 08/14/16 at 05:14:44:What are you trying to say here? You thought of YS as a maf member because of my post? But part of my post calling YS maf made you think I was maf? Does that mean you really believe that YS and I are buddies and I'm bussing him hard here? Or do you think there HAS to be one of us maf?
There are more reason for me to think ur maf, I've explained this before. But yeah, you/YS t/t seems really unlikely; but m/m seems also unlikely considering that means you bussed hard...
Actually, his last post made me feel better about him, not even knowing when day ends and such... would his maf teammates not keep him informed? He seems just too noob.
giving more Towncred to TvK if YS flips Maf. AND saying he feels better about YS now. This almost feels to easy to be true LOL
TvK wrote on 08/14/16 at 13:19:01:ALAKTORN wrote on 08/14/16 at 12:56:10:I was re-reading the rules and I just remembered that “no lynch” exists. LOL That was a huge deal in Shock’s first game, but it hasn’t come up since I think.
TvK, Yoshistar, John; you’re the only 3 not voting. Who are you going to vote for?
I'm having such a hard time choosing between YS and TYG. YS has once again disappeared and eh still hasn't posted anything that could make me believe he was town. TYG has made an effort to come up with something, but he didn't even come close to convincing me. I am actually incredibly thrown off by his defeatist attitude in his latest couple of posts. In general, I am far from convinced that YS is town, but TYG has given me no incentive at all to make me believe he could not be maf. I feel we really need to lynch maf today, and the only one of the two that I believe even has the slightest chance of still being town is my mafia nemesis Yoshistar. I can't not go for TYG today.
So here goes nothing:
[vote]theyounggun[/vote]I'm going out now, but normally I should be home before the deadline so I might still be able to swap if anyone comes out with some convincing arguments. As for now, I've got my fingers crossed.
Remember, he went for TYG D2, not YS. I think it was an attempt to maybe save YS until D3 and then lynch him off after TYG flips to waste another day with discussion about YS.
P.A.F.625 wrote on 08/14/16 at 16:03:58:Definitely not voting YS, that would mean making a similar mistake as D1. But please, pay attention to my last post about him, is he doing it on purpose?
Okay, kyle seems a bit scummier now; besides, maybe a decent maf player could just pbring to attention my D1 EoD which sucked...
You know what...
[vote]Kyle[/vote]
I just feel more comfortable voting someone like him. I mean TYG feels like one of the worse players here (although not as much as YS), maybe he just wasn't paying attention or something. I feel like he could help town as well.
May luck be with me this time.
Going to sleep now.
We already went over why this was terrible. Seeing that kyle was Town, even more terrible. Don't think I have to add to this.

[vote]PAF[/vote]
There's no time for this right now. At this point, either YS needs to go, or the counterwagon on Kyle is gonna take him.
PAF's vote makes me really uneasy about the Kyle wagon. For that reason:
[vote]Yoshistar[/vote]This should put it at 4 votes for YS, 3 for Kyle.
less likely for John to be Maf I think, cause he could vote kyle here to get 4-3 on kyle. Could be major bussing on YS but idk if that's what maf would do at that point when it's 3-3 YS Kyle.
DansGame wrote on 08/14/16 at 17:28:14:Did I say that I think Kyle is town? I just think the late day push on Kyle is super sketchy. PAF's vote is terrible because he didn't give a good reason to vote for a late day lynch candidate that hasn't been talked about for most of the game. If you vote for Kyle this late and are acknowledging that he will be your final vote, you should have a damn good reason for it. Instead, his last post right before that says he got town vibes from Kyle's play.
Also, Dan was pretty adamant about PAF's play EoD2 and before. Another reason they might've killed him in the night.
