Speculating on potential mafia teams...but first, the thing is that 12 players is a tough number for a mafia game.

Assuming one neutral player, 3v8v1 is really rough for town depending on roles. Otherwise it's 2v9v1, which is tough for mafia but maybe better overall.
If there's two neutrals it would be 3v7v1v1, I would think you'd have to go 2v8v1v1 at that point.
So it might be a mafia duo rather than a team.

Right now I'm assuming Zoran and TvK are town.

Lynching B.Ray tells us a lot about Zwiebel and John.
Lynching Orange tells us some about TYG (Zwiebel pointed out that TYG was going after Orange day 1).
What do we learn from lynching Sportsguy?
Any other prime wagons anyone wants to go for?

I like this post, was going to do something similar in terms of posting possible team setups, but you've covered the essentials here already.

However, I dislike your starting point that Zoran and TvK are town. Even though I currently townread both of them as well, it's a dangerous place to just flat-out assume they are town when going through your permutations.

In terms of other possible wagons, Lewis is probably the only other one I'd consider today that hasn't already been mentioned. His EoD1 and all of D2 have been horrible.

You are my biggest mafia suspect based on your first post on D2.  And it seems you are going after me more than some others in this game.

I may be back in the morning before i go to work, but I WILL NOT BE HERE FOR EOD.  i get off work right when the day ends and can't check it from there.  I work every other wknd, so it was bad timing for me.  I'm voting for who i think has the best chance of being mafia.

I honestly have no idea why you'd still be happy with your vote if a town was lynched. Regardless of whether he questioned his own play, losing a member is never a good thing



this prolly isnt you "coincidentally" posting the same thing as tvk, cuz it was 10 minutes after. nice logic-sheeping fine sir.  Grin Grin Grin


I didn't even read TvK's post on that before writing mine.

Neutral roles are players who aren't aligned to either town or mafia and have separate win conditions entirely.

Is this TMI? We don't know how many scum are in the game...also, you aren't considering neutral factions at all.

A question to everyone.

If there ANYONE who thinks that Brian is Town at this point?


Catching up as i go.  Yes i think B.Ray is town mainly because day 1 bandwagons are usually wrong.  

Did you even see how the Brian wagon started? I'm well aware of the fact that D1 bandwagons are usually wrong...I literally made a post saying exactly that. So, I used that motivation to try to start a wagon that *wasn't* Dan or PAF (the two main D1 wagons...guess what, both town!). That wagon ended up being Brian - it turned into the leading wagon with 20 minutes to go, until you, Dan, TvK, and Lewis all voted to save Brian and lynch PAF instead. How does that wagon behavior make Brian seem townie?

Continuing on this, aside from understanding why people were scumreading him, was him questioning his own play the only reason why you were happy with your vote? Also, doesn't questioning one's play open the doors to put pressure on more people so they can attempt to/prove their innocence? Still don't get why you're happy with a town lynch.

WOW - these are your reasons for voting him? What content in his posts did you not like? And voting someone for just for pressuring you is really fucking scummy.

Everything you've done so far today has taken you from (neutral, maybe very slightly scummy) to definitely scummy, in my eyes. And yes, I know you're scumreading me. I'd be happy to see anything of mine you view as scummy, please be specific.

Putting out one final call - EVERYONE NEEDS TO GIVE THEIR THOUGHTS ON EOD1 AND N1 BEFORE D2 ENDS

To be specific, I want everyone's take on the following:

End of day 1:
johnboy81918 wrote on 08/25/17 at 14:20:24:
Up to #650 (20 minutes before EoD!):
Brian (4): John, TvK, Lewis, PAF
PAF (3): Third, Brian, Timur
Dan (2): Leone, Zoran
no vote (2): Sportsguy, Orange
Orange (1): Dan

Starting to see some late mix-up here...Lewis jumps over to Brian wagon off of Orange, followed immediately by PAF (who was probably trying to vote for whatever would save him). If Brian is town, are the scum already on this wagon? If they aren't, now's the time to safely hammer home a mislynch - this would have been the perfect opportunity to jump aboard as the wagon was taking off. So the options are: either Brian is town and therefore all 3 wagons at this point were on town, or Brian is scum. Which of these scenarios do the rest of you find most likely?

For the EoD craziness, 6 more votes happened, I think we should look at each in order...
Sportsguy #663, votes PAF: PAF 4, Brian 4, Dan 2, Orange 1, none 1 - currently tied between PAF and Brian. Sportsguy, why did you vote to send this to a tie, what didn't you like about the Brian wagon?
Leone #664, votes PAF: PAF 5, Brian 4, Dan 1, Orange 1, none 1 - reasoning for vote was to purposefully send to a tie (not realizing Sportsguy had just sent it to a tie with the previous post)
Leone #665, votes Dan: PAF 4, Brian 4, Dan 2, Orange 1, none 1 - undoes his previous vote, sends it back to a tie
Dan #697, votes PAF: PAF 5, Brian 4, Dan 2, none 1 - Dan breaks the tie, he didn't like the Brian wagon (because of me, I think?)
TvK #698, votes PAF: PAF 6, Brian 3, Dan 2, none 1 - this was also to break the tie. TvK, why did you think PAF was a better lynch than 50/50 PAF/Brian? If you were confident enough in the Brian wagon, isn't it better that he has a *chance* to be the lynch?
Lewis #699, votes Dan: PAF 6, Dan 3, Brian 2, none 1 - says he was following Leone. Why did you do this Lewis? At the time you were making this post, it was tied between PAF and Brian, there was no way Dan was going to be the kill...so effectively you also chose to break the tie and lynch PAF, even without voting him.

Out of this final set, I think the votes that deserve the most scrutiny are Sportsguy, TvK, and Lewis. I'd like to hear some good explanations for these 3 votes. All three of you effectively chose PAF over Brian as the lynch candidate, why?

Sportsguy, Dan, TvK, and Lewis *all* chose to save Brian, resulting in PAF's mislynch. How do these votes influence your views of the 3 who survived N1? How do these votes influence your views of Brian?

Night 1: TvK was attacked and healed
johnboy81918 wrote on 08/25/17 at 14:24:05:
Thinking more about the attack/heal on TvK:
- it's definitely likely that TvK would draw a heal regardless of alignment
- I think it's *more* likely that the attack was scum-originated...I doubt a townie would have attacked TvK at this point in the game? Not sure, just a gut feeling.
- given the above, it makes me feel better about TvK than I did after EoD1

Who do you think was more likely to attack TvK, scum or a townie? Also, how does this attack influence your view of TvK?

I will go through everyone's posts as quickly as I can and see who has and hasn't addressed these points. If you haven't, you seriously need to consider helping - these are the most concrete pieces of information we have in the game, and if we don't utilize them properly we're going to get fucked.

@John: I really didn't like the way day 1 ended. We had so much time to get anywhere near a majority during the day, but we never even got close. I was thrown off by Leone just randomly swapping his vote around and encouraging people to vote Dan to get a three-way tie and let RNG decide the lynch. Both Timur and TYG were contemplating changing their vote to Dan. I did NOT want Dan to get lynched. I made my choice between PAF and Dan at that point.

I bring up that his decision had nothing to do with Dan and everything to with choosing between PAF/Brian.
He agrees.

There was no way to get a 3 way tie unless Orange and Third showed up, unless it would somehow go to 3-3-3 which would have required 2 people to vote for someone other than the 3 wagons. So you still had a choice between PAF and Brian, as far as I'm concerned...


Sure, now that I've looked at it I also realized that the chance was extremely small. But in the confusion I made a decision and it turned out to be the wrong one.


No input on N1, other than being thankful for being saved. TvK, I know you have the most biased N1 perspective, but I'd still like to know what your thoughts are.

Also, I failed to realize that TvK didn't address the others' EoD1 votes. TvK, how did Sportsguy and Lewis's EoD1 votes influence your reads of them? I suppose you could also say how your EoD1 vote influenced your read of yourself, if you wish Tongue

1st question: Depends on the alignment of Brian

If Brian is maf, technically all of them would look bad for the late switching and I am pretty certain that 1 of the 3 is Maf trying to save their buddy. However, for reasons I already explained, I don't think TvK and Brian can be Maf for the fact that TvK pushed so hard for a Brian wagon, when he had no reason to do that if he was Maf. So I'd say either Lewis or Sportsguy could very well be Maf in that scenario.

If Brian is Town, then I would take back my Town lean on TvK, since my argument on him relies on the assumption that Brian is Maf. The other 2, I don't know in that case...but honestly, if we lynch Brian and he flips Town I think we're probably fucked anyway.

2.d Question: I already explained why I think the votes make me think that Brian is Maf, so I won't repeat myself.

I also alredy explained my thoughts about N1.

Also, I like Thirds posts today. Leaning more in favor of him being Town for now.

Leone:

Discusses EoD1 votes here:
Leone wrote on 08/26/17 at 10:07:31:
TVK's "break the rng" vote looks weird since he "really wanted to lynch B Ray" about an hour before this and then said he'd be good with either bray or paf then jumps away from that?????? I feel like there;s a thing Im missing here 1!!11 Ima dig back on this man FIRST during #2 on my itinerary and see if anything stands out.

THEN TYG tried to blitz dan with me because "he trusts me the most"?!??!??!

YO DIPSHIT

TRUST NOBODY IN THIS GAME UNLESS YOU KNOW THEIR ALIGNMENT. this pocketing looks sooooo scummy, omg. PPL WHO HAVENT ANSWERED THIS YET AND I MEAN EVERYBODY WHO HAVENT ANSWERED THIS YET, THOUGHTS?????????????

ofc then you have sportsguy who sent itn to a tie before I did.

SPORTSDUDE why were you fine pulling an RNG between brian and paf?????? I thought paf was your biggest scumread the whole game??!?

I'll admit I don't understand this argument against Sportsguy - he voted *for* PAF to force the tie at the time...he wasn't "fine with RNG" and presumably preferred it be NOT rng *and* be a PAF lynch, which was the ultimate result anyway. Just my interpretation, at any rate.

Leone has also thought quite a bit about N1...lays out possible scenarios here:
Leone wrote on 08/26/17 at 10:32:05:
@zoran SINCE you asked (#710) ill run through the possibilities:

I THINK SHOCK'S WORDING LEAVES A MAJOR CLUE, TOO, BTW. SEE MORE ON THIS BELOW. shoulda been more clear on that in my earlier posts today but i wasnt.

Here's what I think logically follows:::::::

- DAN SCENARIO 1: this man was hot on scum trail and scum wanted him ded so they killed him.
- DAN SCENARIO 2: this man was on several ppls' (including my) scumdar™ so they thought he wouldnt have doc protection (which turned out to be teh case, w/ the tvk thing).
- DAN SCENARIO 3: this man was NOT the mafia's target, and some other fag decided they were too impatient and killed him to see his flip. (This implies TVK scenario 1 or 2.)
- DAN SCENARIO 4: this man was NOT the mafia's target, AND was also NOT some other fag's target, but he died cuz he had a bodyguard sort of role.

idk the memes about diamond (someone ples fill me in) so idk what sort of powers a diamond-role woulda had but im not ruling anything out rn

- TVK scenario 1: maf tried to off this man cuz he was hot on scum trail
- TVK scenario 2: maf tried to off this man cuz he looked like a safe target (iirc everyone had town or neutral reads on him going into N1)
- TVK scenario 3: some non-maf fag thinks he's scum and tried to off him
- TVK scenario 4: the man was NOBODY'S target and had a bodyguard role of some sort, and just happened to have doc protection

Now, which do I think is the case????

Well, let's check out shock's wording:

Shock wrote on 08/25/17 at 12:35:11:
We found DansGame dead in front of his N64. He was playing playing on a flatscreen TV,
it seems. He was Diamond, a member of the Town
.

TvK showed up late to the gathering; it seems he took a nasty stab wound, but he was somehow recovering despite what appears to be a horrendous job of patching up. It seems he was attacked and "healed", if one can call that mess of bandages a healing...


Things to note:

>No word on HOW Dan died.
>TVK was STABBED. iirc in these games mafia SHOOT ppl to kill them? unless it's different this game?

ANYway, assuming the above notes are valid, we can immediately rule out TVK scenarios 1 and 2, and Dan scenario 3. This wording sock used implies Dan was either the maf's target or a bodyguard, and TVK was some fag's target, or a bodyguard. (If we even have any bodyguard-esque roles, who knows lol)

Further, even if you think bodyguards exist in this game (which im not convinced on myself), raw math favors the possibilities of intentional targets over bodyguarded targets. I'm not ruling out Dan scenario 4 or TVK scenario 4, BUT if I had to guess, MAF shot Dan and some random fag stabbed TVK.

Thoughts??????????

Puts a lot of weight onto the specific words that were used by Shock. Uses said verbiage to conclude that Dan was probably a maf target, TvK was probably a town target. Personally, I think otherwise (see #713) but I like that he focused on many scenarios.

More EoD1 discussion:

TvK wrote on 08/25/17 at 14:31:56:
@John: I really didn't like the way day 1 ended. We had so much time to get anywhere near a majority during the day, but we never even got close
.

yet again hints that getting a big wagon is a good thing to do, but what if said wagon was on town? maf would wanna witch-hunt and get a wagon going early to squelch discussion of other people.

Why? Did you expect me to fall in line and vote bray??

Quote:
Both Timur and TYG were contemplating changing their vote to Dan. I did NOT want Dan to get lynched. I made my choice between PAF and Dan at that point.


BULLSHIT. Dan had 2 votes on him when you went for paf, the choice was paf or bray.

also where did timur contemplate changing his vote???? he said dan and paf both look scummy but at no point did he say he'd switch his vote. (srsly, where would timur have contemplated changing his vote? only place besides here would be a maf chat...  Shocked Shocked Shocked )

The fact that both Dan and PAF are Town makes any voting movements between PAF and Dan basically useless information, and since they were for a long time prime suspects, it makes it hard to get information that way.


well maf may be wavering back and forth to decide on a mislynch, no? id say these movements could be useful info...

Quote:
However, it makes me feel a lot better about TvK, as iirc he was the one who tried to push hardest for a Brian wagon, when most other people seemed content with it being between Dan or PAF(and Orange a bit earlier).


but then he jumped to paf to "untie the vote" when the tie was between paf/brian. this doesnt add up at all.

Quote:
If he was Maf, why would he start another wagon that could potentially give us more information to work with instead of just joining in on Dan or PAF?


1.) that late in the day was a bit late for another wagon, and 2.) who wouldve been higher-info than dan???? he had more posts of contributions than anyone but myself...


Overall, Leone has addressed EoD1 and N1 pretty thoroughly. Even though I disagree with him about what happened N1, I can't find much in here that I don't like.

Sportsguy, Dan, TvK, and Lewis *all* chose to save Brian, resulting in PAF's mislynch. How do these votes influence your views of the 3 who survived N1? How do these votes influence your views of Brian?


1st question: Depends on the alignment of Brian

If Brian is maf, technically all of them would look bad for the late switching and I am pretty certain that 1 of the 3 is Maf trying to save their buddy. However, for reasons I already explained, I don't think TvK and Brian can be Maf for the fact that TvK pushed so hard for a Brian wagon, when he had no reason to do that if he was Maf. So I'd say either Lewis or Sportsguy could very well be Maf in that scenario.

If Brian is Town, then I would take back my Town lean on TvK, since my argument on him relies on the assumption that Brian is Maf. The other 2, I don't know in that case...but honestly, if we lynch Brian and he flips Town I think we're probably fucked anyway.

2.d Question: I already explained why I think the votes make me think that Brian is Maf, so I won't repeat myself.

I also alredy explained my thoughts about N1.

Also, I like Thirds posts today. Leaning more in favor of him being Town for now.

Thanks for putting things here, this'll make it easier when I try to summarize your responses. I agree regarding Third as well, definitely leaning town right now after what he's done so far this day.

Honestly John I've only played the warewolf variant so I'm not even familiar with neutral roles and what they do. I do not know what Yoshi Star is. I researched cop and doctor but besides that I'm clueless. I'm not sure how much I can help in this regard. But I'd like to discuss it


Neutral roles are players who aren't aligned to either town or mafia and have separate win conditions entirely.


I know what he word neutral means lol, I meant I don't know al the possible roles/powers associated with them

This series of posts, deconstructing one person at a time, shall be structured in the following way:

- summary of important D1 stuff
- summary of/responses to D2 stuff

I'll start my player walls post series on TVK cuz I'm most suspicious about how he looks in broad conduct.

I NEED TO STRESS, anything said here about other players does NOT have anything to do with them, or with my perceptions of them, merely the person in question's conduct with them.

D1 shit

20 - comments how 3/6 'random' votes on him
22 - reply to me, ending meme stage helps get things moving
26 - responses to me and paf
42 - hits paf for being suspicious of Dan speculating about me
44 - hits me for not asking a question of more ppl
54 - grills Zoran for agreeing with John exactly
66 - absolutely shreds orange's opening post
67 - questions zoran's reasoning on votes
82 - questions paf and indicates my posting isnt alignment-indicative
85 - goes after orange again, asks him to comment on more than just TVK's own response to him
86 - defends me from Dan thinking i'm jester
92 - calls my logic town-perspective (more defending me)
94 - reverses and takes my latest post, a read on paf=noob town, calls it jester w/o explanation
95 - grills me for reading paf noob town
99 - yet another post grilling me on my paf town read
105 - defended my paf vote, calling the logic behind it townish
108 - responds to me defending his attack on orange's shittiness when I comment it could be noob town, then blames Dan's tunneling of me on myself
189 - Third, TYG null reads, still my fault for dan's tunneling, then goes after third for not posting reads BUT says he likes third's SG vote w/o explanation
191 - same theme as 108 basically then hits me for switching my vote off paf
192 - grills orange
193 - votes sportsguy w/o explanation or prior read on him
203 - plants the suggestion that paf=maf
204 - votes PAF (to apply pressure, he claims)
217 - misses the existence of 3rd-party factions
218 - grills PAF
264 - "random votes to apply pressure stimulate discussion", then explains reasoning to get orange active
265, 266 - "I like my paf vote cuz he reacted 'badly' to TVK/Zoran votes on him"
307 - asks for ppls' reads on paf, then uses paf quotes to build a case against the lad ("he has bad reads", "he's inconsistent", "he assumes dan=scum")
308 - grills paf for not asking questions
309 - disagrees w/ dan about my identity (I saw this as town/neutral action at the time cuz I thought dan was scum)
310 - asks b ray for content thus far
326 - pushes dan to use his vote

328 - looks weird to me, commenting on this one more than some others cuz I missed weirdnesses about it:
Quote:
What do you think of the fact that your biggest townlean (me) is voting your only other town lean (PAF)? Do you think my reasoning for voting him is wrong but it does come from a townie mindset? Does PAF drop on your townmeter now that I have pointed this out?

^328, 2 things stand out:

>Asks if his reasoning appears town to Orange (looks weird, because choice of words)
>Asks if PAF looks worse now (again looks weird, from choice of words)
TVK is someone who understands the power of suggestion, and imo these ^ look bad, given paf=town.

390 - claims PAF's more confident as town than he is this game (appeal to meta)
396 - grills orange for flip-flopping and jumping on Dan wagon, then says orange would be a good high-information lynch candidate, despite orange's post number being countable on 1 hand at this point
399 - pushes paf to be more assertive then picks out a sentence paf said and twists it into paf being scum (namely, paf not liking zoran/tvk votes on him)
401 - doubles down on "town!paf=confident and he's not confident this game"
403 - slams orange for his weird unvote then states orange=good lynch today
414 - asks paf for orange read
416 - asks paf if john still looks town despite him not using his vote yet
419 - asks paf about reads on dan in relation to tyg and about why he has his vote on dan (sufgests via question it's "only to keep yourself alive")
421 - goes after BRay for weird reasoning and asks him about his perspective on PAF/TVK relation
423 - asks BRay why he still thinks Orange is neutral, suggests through questions that orange=maf
425 - complains that no wagons have alot of votes (clear wagons silence discussion on d1, imo this d1 was good precisely because there was so much shit said)
433 - pressures BRay to use his vote, then asks this super-scummy (to me) question that nobody else commented on at the time:
Quote:
And if you had to put your vote down right now, would you vote PAF or Orange?

This dichotomy contains the other 2 ppl TVK has been hounding on this entire day.
439 - asks orange where he's at vote-wise
446 - hits paf for not meta-ing us
451 - laments that we dont have any good wagons and then calls Orange's wagon this:
Quote:
And even Orange the low-hanging fruit wagon isn't going anywhere at this point.

I think this is really, really weird... can't quite place my finger on it but it looks like he slipped on a narrative he's been trying to push. Further, this post comes in response to his failure thus far to push any wagon so far (even though he's only done one vague summary on paf and no summaries on others' scumminess)
498 - defends 433 after I dig into it: the dichotomy he framed bray's vote as when pushing bray to vote orange/paf as him trying to help bray, then claimed (to summarize) orange just looks dubious and he was upset bray hadnt commented on orange
510 - clarifies "no big wagons at this point is bad" then makes this tepid argument for why one of (paf, dan, orange) = scum:
Quote:
The fact that people are not jumping on the Orange wagon is interesting because you can easily justify jumping on him without being suspicious. In any other game, the biggest wagons were on the most inexperienced players. It very much makes me believe that one or more of the leading wagons at this point (PAF, Orange, Dan)

it feels like he's reaching here.
513 - hits bray for indecisiveness
514 - slams bray's "let's vote shitty town" argument
519 - slams paf for indecisiveness
521 - hints at paf/orange being m/m
523 - follows up condemning bray for quick jump to pafwagon
524 - hints that he now thinks bray may be mafia and paf/bray are t/m
525 - votes bray despite 3 posts ago paf=biggest scumread
528 - thinks orange is coached
530 - praises paf for bray scum read
531 - asks paf if he thinks maf sheeped off zoran (paf's biggest townlean now) to wagon paf cuz they were, quote, "going after low-hanging fruit" (this might indicate tvk's view of paf at this point, similar to orange and probably bray... notice a theme here????)
536 - suggests orange=maf, says this:
Quote:
If Orange is town, that's an easy place for mafia to switch to.
despite him saying "voting for orange isn't suspicious at all" in a previous post, then doubles down on paf/orange m/m possibility claiming orange vote on dan=scum protecting scum
540 - hits tyg for voting a scumread another tyg scumread was voting for, asks for more info
541 - agrees with tyg that paf/orange m/m possible and asks tyg about bray
560 - accuses paf of bus-voting
571 - agrees with most zoran reads except dan/orange/paf=/=all scum and that "dan looks least scummy at this point" (by now ive posted my treatise against dan, have been asking opinions, etc, and nothing from tvk)
578 - hits bray for bad reasoning, then asks this about paf, DESPITE the fact that PAF had answered the question when I had posts it a couple hundred posts back:
Quote:
Where did PAF try to explain that he assumed that there was a Yohsistar role?


TVK here is using the same logic I used on Dan, so he was clearly atleast reading my back and forth with Dan

580 - agrees he pushed bray to vote but denies he pushed him to vote for a big wagon, DESPITE the framing he used in 433
583 - hits bray on possible tmi'ing
586 - hits bray on another possible tmi, hints at bray being informed (being maf)
587 - agrees exactly with zwiebel on calling out bray's wording
590 - hits bray on his reads, and says this weirdly (looks to me like he's planting words in bray's mouth and also they look maf-ish) :
Quote:
Now again I seem to be reading that PAF is going to flip town and you want me to be looked at when he does so.


591 - hits bray on inconsistent reads/voting
599 - triples down on "2 of paf/orange/dan = maf = possible, one of those 3 = maf = likely"
(Writing this now cuz I might forget later, this looks like the PERFECT narrative to subtly, consistently push if you want to mislynch PAF, nightkill Dan, then bus-lynch/mislynch orange D2 [not saying orange is inno ofc he's getting a wall like this too, bussig orange makes lotsa sense if orange is maf LOL])
603 - says he wants to lynch bray, and that he'll "settle for paf/orange lynch too"
607 - hints at "orange/paf connection", then says he "doesnt think dan=scum in general", then says this
Quote:
I'm trying my best to get B. Ray lynched.
when I ask him to make his push convincing (imo town!TVK would summarize, make comprehensive reads, and grill EVERYONE, not just the 3 [paf/orange/bray])
609 - shotgun-questions bray on paf-lynch scenarios
616 - asks dan to move off orange, and asks SG to vote one of the 2 wagons (paf, bray)
630 - calls bray scum
634 - hits bray for citing maf-playing record
638 - answers this in response to me asking what we'd learn from bray lynch:
Quote:
If B. Ray flips scum: PAF is town, John is very likely town, TYG is climbing the town ladder. People on the PAF wagon look bad.

^First is now obvious, thing on John was already consensus at this point (Jonniboi you're getting a wall too dw babe), third is vague

647 - says "bray=more likely to flip maf, this'd clear paf" [again saying this now cuz I might forget, what if this statement sets up bray->paf mislynch clain? he;s implying here bray flipping town would incriminate paf further

ALSO he says here "bray upping activity under fire is scummy" WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU WANT FROM PRESSURE, SIR???!??!!?!?!? you're setting up a catch-22 for bray: active? scum. inactive? scum.

649 - admits to leading witchhunts as scum, which i find a bit funny rn given the subjects of his focus all day (low-activity, 'low-hanging fruit' as he termed orange directly, paf directly, bray by inference)
667 - is thrown completely off when I start firing votes from the hip and shit-posting to fake-setup rng lynch (this was just to gather reactions btw), imo cuz he expected me to "fall in line" and vote bray
698 - "Not gonna let it go to RNG" BETWEEN BRAY AND PAF, HIS 2 BIGGEST SCUMREADS, and votes PAF right after dan to seal the lynch

UP TO THIS POINT, A FEW THEMES HAVE EMERGED:
>ONLY targeted paf/orange/bray
>was extremely cautious when interacting with me/Timur/Dan/etc, imo TVK wouldnt be hesitant to shred us apart
>fed words to his 3 targets and got their reads, imo, to figure out how to best setup a double- or triple-mislynch chain.

NOW FOR DAY 2 IN MY NEXT POST.

thoughts??

Zoran:

First mention of the implications of EoD1 votes:
no control wrote on 08/26/17 at 07:40:32:
B.Ray wrote on 08/26/17 at 06:05:48:
TYG: For same reasons as TVK EOD activity and jumping from me to PAF

Also, I know it looks way bad for me that TVK and TYG changed their votes last minute from me to town. The reason I trust them as town is because I know I'm town and I don't think mafia would change vote last minute from town to town unless they really thought they could get out a way better player. if
i'm wrong on this someone please say something!


TYG jumped to Dan.

I see another possibility. Maf voted for you because they thought you will not get enough heat and it was an easy way to escape the main wagons. However, once your wagon got going maf had to bail out.
Just because everything is going well for mafia, doesn't mean they will sit back and relax.

Interested do see your elaborations on the list you made.

Thinks that maf might have bailed on maf!Brian wagon. This implies Zoran sees a possibility of maf!TvK and/or maf!Lewis.

Zoran discusses N1:
no control wrote on 08/26/17 at 11:12:11:
There must have been 2 attacks tonight, i don't see 1 attack doing all this. Maf went through with an attack, 2nd attack came either from PAF or from neutral player. I really don't think town did this.

I also don't think we would get that info if it was a bodyguard/doctor thing.

WOW I DIDN'T SEE THIS BEFORE!! Zoran, what do you mean that 2nd attack might have been from PAF?? Do you mean from PAF himself or from someone on the wagon?

GUYS THIS IS A WILD ASS THEORY BUT HEAR ME OUT: PAF was Lafungo. Here is how Lafungo died in a game here (it was epic):
Lafungo wrote on 06/05/16 at 07:41:29:
I dug myself into a hole intentionally, but I made it too deep and couldn't climb out.

J-Cop is mafia.

See you on the flip side.

When Lafungo (cop) died, he essentially "marked" J-Cop who was going to be the obvious lynch the next day.

WHAT IF THIS IS POSSIBLE HERE?? TvK cast the final vote on PAF, could he have somehow been marked to die because it was against Lafungo? But a save preserved him for at least another day?

So, is this the stupidest thing in the world and I'm crazy? Or is this actually possible...?

TYG Day 1

Comes in a bit late, makes some observations, mostly about Leone, some on Dan.

He doesn't like Orange's 1st post. 155

He says he doesn't want Leone lynched. 168

In this entire episode he pretty much shared opinions only on Leone, Dan and Orange.

After this he comes in eod and has a big post about 4 of his maf leans:

LewisRichards wrote on 08/24/17 at 10:12:00:
Anyway I'm gonna try to explain my reads on Dan sportsguy PAF and Orange since I think there could be multiple maf in those 4.


After that he votes Orange and talks about possible PAF + orange mafia pair. Considering this theory, what do you think about Orange now?

He also expreses his possitive thoughts about Dan:

LewisRichards wrote on 08/24/17 at 10:34:26:
Dan was more of a scum possibility than a scum read. He's closer to nuetral than scum and I feel slightly better since I think paf orange is the most likely team and I don’t think Dan fits in with them.


in 544 he talks about Brian being suspicious.

As of 604 he started talking about a Brian/Dan m/m pair and he sticked to that. He voted for Brian 1st and then switched to Dan. Considering this theory, what do you think of Brian now?

He also states that Leone is Basically 100% town. 613 Has this opinion stayed the same? Do you still see Leone as 100% town?

TYG Day 2

Shared his opinions on everyone, but very little explanation. 795

LewisRichards wrote on 08/26/17 at 11:34:36:
@Leone #858 oh shit Dan being bodyguard actually makes sense. TvK as a kill target makes a lot more sense than Dan.


Why do you think so?

Could you elaborate more on your reads?

You should also vote and show where you stand now. I would like to see more activity and scum hunting from you as well.


I still don't like b ray despite Dan's town flip, I don't think the connection was strong enough to somehow make b ray guaranteed not mafia the connection just seemed more of a possibility than a guaranteed thing.

I still have a very strong town vibe on Leone.

I also still don't like Orange, I think his posts have been terrible. I think he looks worse after Dan's flip as well.

I think TvK as a kill target would have made more since than Dan because Dan was someone who would have gotten heat today from a lot of people especially with his PAF vote again. There's no reason for mafia to kill him, meanwhile TvK was on no one's radar as mafia. So Leone's theory about Dan being bodyguard just makes sense to me.

I don’t think TvK is guaranteed town from that in case I'm wrong but it gives me more of a town read on him rather than no read.

As far as you and John, I think both of you have been quite active and have made very good posts and have actually tried to solve the game.

Third I have no read on, his posts just seem to not connect to anyone, which might be a town thing actually.

Zwiebel I'm not sure about, I haven't felt like he's been solving the game. I don’t want to make any reads off of a gut feeling though so he's still neutral.

Sportsguys posts have also seemed bad, they all seem to be reading off of general things. One I didn't like for example was how he didn't like you or John for preparing posts at the start of d2 cuz that's something smart maf would do. So he was reading you guys as maf based off of a concept rather than the actual content of those posts or what either of you did d1.

Sooooooooooooooooo idk I'm gonna finish reading through the most recent posts and then I'll vote. Right now I'm inbetween b ray and orange, and sorry I've been tired so that's why I haven't been going into as much detail as I should be. I still really don't like sportsguy's play though, but I think b ray is my #1 read rn.

Also, if my crazy ass theory is even remotely close - TvK looks much scummier now. I already said in my early D2 posts that I had a scumread on him after EoD1 events, but because I thought the attack on him was more likely to come from scum, it ultimately persuaded me to give him a townread (I weighed the attack more heavily than the EoD1 behavior).

However I do have to admit - even though it makes TvK scummier in my eyes, I'm not sure it's worth a lynch over. If the Lafungo role is anything like I described, TvK will probably die whenever he *isn't* saved for a night.

Ugh I think I'm just fucking with my own head...but I really want to see what others think lol.

In my excitement, I forgot to finish my Zoran post:

Zoran discussed his theory of N1 (look above and see what it made me do lol). I would like to hear his answer about the 3 specific EoD1 votes though. Zoran, how did those particular votes influence your reads of each of those players, and of Brian?

You are my biggest mafia suspect based on your first post on D2.  And it seems you are going after me more than some others in this game.

I may be back in the morning before i go to work, but I WILL NOT BE HERE FOR EOD.  i get off work right when the day ends and can't check it from there.  I work every other wknd, so it was bad timing for me.  I'm voting for who i think has the best chance of being mafia.  


edited to bold vote


This vote is so bad, I thought he was just having zoran as a maf read based off of having a post prepared which I already thought was bad. But actually voting him based off of that is so stupid, the post was actually good and voting him based off of that takes none of zoran's d1 into context as well as the content of the post.

Zoran said he wanted everyone to vote but I'm still torn between b ray orange and sportsguy
