You broke your speech restriction again.
It is really hard for me to disguise newness and scummy-ness.
What?
What is the question you were asking me @scattered mind because I can't find it
Here it is:
Can you explain the contradiction?
I find it strange that scattered is trying so hard to make you respond to this question. It's not actually relevant, and could be a sign of a connection between you two. It's not much for now, but defiantly something to keep in mind.
 
I think the dos thing is that she was really pressuring new players (mainly @Inferno390, iirc), which is kinda scummy if they're the only ones you're pressuring.

That about right, Camo? And, uh, why aren't you saying anything? :U

True, but I did end up getting a good read on Inferno. It's just now he's dead. :x

I think there's a high chance that scum would hop onto PP's wagon, so I think that at least a couple of them would be scum. I know I'm town, so when I look at everyone who at one point, was on PP's wagon that hasn't flipped yet/didn't flip at all, I see that SS, simsands, bb, PMJ, scattered, Camo and Jesi were all on there. When bb was nightkilled he didn't flip, however, he was the only person that was killed that night, so I think it's likely that he was janitored and town. Leaving SS, simsands, PMJ, scattered, Camo and Jesi. PMJ is unknown, so I'm not quite sure what to think of him. I think that Drac/Wailord was killed because of Wood, so there's a chance that PMJ was janitored. However, then we're left with the situation that is two people being janitored. I think it would be strange for Celever to include two janitors so I'll assume that either bb or PMJ had something that prevented their role from flipping. Nonetheless, I think he was nightkilled, so I won't add him to my list of who was on PP's wagon that might be scum. This leaves SS, Jesi, simsands, Camo and scattered. Out of those five when looking at their votes, my order for whose more suspicious is:

Jesi > Camo > SS > scattered = simsands

Camo was at one point voting for me, PP, Wailord and Robin while Jesi was voting for PP, Wailord, Robin, Inferno and bb. Of course, Jesi's first few votes were RVS (the ones on bb, inferno and Robin), but because she's still learning, I doubt that she'd vote for her scum buddies that early on. What do you know, none of them flipped scum. Out of the people who were killed, SS only voted for PP and Wailord which isn't too much of a tell imo, but still it's a little suspicious. Scattered and simsands only voted for PP which isn't that scummy.

Day 2 Votecount
Robin Aisaga (7) -- PikaMasterJesi [#458 ~ #486], Camoclone [#459], NinjaPenguin [#460], double o squirtle [#461], TheAnticipationEevee [#463], TheSceptileMaster [#468], PMJ [#477], PikaMasterJesi [#510], scattered mind [#522] L-1

Then when I look at this votecount, once again I see scattered, Camo and Jesi. So my new order is:

Jesi > Camo > SS = scattered > simsands
 
Good. You just confirmed my suspicions. I look forward to when I get my internet back so I can get you lynched.
 
Since not much else is happening, here's the case on Jesi, summed up.

I'm still fairly new to this game and I was participating in RVS. What else was I supposed to do with my vote? I do understand that new players panic––I was a new player once and I panicked quite a bit in my first game––but that doesn't mean that they get to avoid any and all suspicion. I've also only played in three Day 1 phases thus far, so it's still fairly new to me.


A reason why I can suspect TheSceptileMaster. He seems very jumpy and nervous, and he also seems like he's new scum trying not to get himself lynched. Right now, I can't see him being town. Remember TAE, in your first game, you subbed in as scum. It isn't impossible for a new player to be scum.


Contradition. Describes how new players panic, and uses that as her main reason to pin him as scum.

Because if I commented on it, you would've dug at me more. I should've known commenting on RVS was a bad idea...

Afraid of pressure.

I don't know TSM's alignment. I'm just firm on my current read. Gonna keep an eye on Robin though.


I don't think this is helpful to town. They need every lead, and if it doesn't look like you're scumhunting, you could get under fire for it.

Referring to town as 'they', like someone who wasn't town would do.

They is town. I thought that'd be clear. Also, if I were scum, why would I just say something like that out in the open? Even I would know better, and I always seem to look scummy. I wouldn't want to dig my hole deeper.

WIFOM. AtE.

There's not really much to go off of, but I think they're interesting. Gonna try to write a small case in this post.


Like PP said, not voting hinders town. Without town votes, scum could easily make the lynch whatever they want. Are you waiting to hammer on the last day, and are just saying this to avoid suspicion? Also, "not much to discuss"? @Robin Aisaga, what are your thoughts on the votes on and behaviours of Inferno and TSM?


I said this before: Not obviously scumhunting does town no good. The town needs every possible lead they can get. I can also taste the sarcasm so strongly from here. You seem very annoyed in this line. I do also think Camo would've elaborated more than he did, though, so that's a little strange...
In addition to this, you sound like you're reluctant to scumhunt. Possible tell?


Reading this post, I don't think you read this:

You dodged his question here. What evidence do you have from those points I have conveniently quoted at the top of this post? Why are those relevant? Why should we be looking further into those instead of you, or TSM, or me? Are they scumtells?

Right now, I'm feeling unsure about my vote on TSM. Switching it for now.
##Unvote
##Vote: Robin Aisaga

Please answer the questions I've presented to you.

Backpedaling her TSM vote to join the new hot bandwagon.

• I haven't played forum Mafia for a month. I'm doing my best to improve and help out. It's not like I could play my own game for practice.
• Forcing my hunt? I'm just doing my best to hunt so that I don't just echo people again. I don't want a repeat of XXXV, and I'm sure you guys don't either. That may seem like forcing to you, but it's better than saying what's already been said in my opinion.
• I actually wanted to switch my vote earlier, but I didn't, because if I did, I'd have been called out for throwing my vote around, and I didn't want that, so I played like I was still interested in the TSM lynch. Call it more self-awareness, but that's how I am as a person. I likely won't be changing what I think is actually an okay quality of myself for a game. (This response is a bit iffy right now because I've been a bit passive at school with letting people get rid of me in their table groups and pretend I don't exist, so I feel like this is translating to other parts of my life, but with good reason.)

I realize I'm handling this pressure badly and I'm trying to make things better for myself, but it's so hard to figure out how to respond to it sometimes, and then how to even word it. Right now, I feel like I can't even play the game as me because of all this pressure. I hate it.


Reading this as a rude/snobby response, and I don't like that. Excuse me if I have a bad read on the RVS state. >_<"


Is this correct? If not, we can confirm that one of Simsands, DOS, SS, and Robin have a double vote weight. I don't think Celever would add Spark Brushel/Emily Quartam again.

Afraid of being called out for backpedaling. Major AtE. Slight rolefish.

I highly doubt there's a silencer in this setup, TAE.

Huh, that's an interesting note you've pointed out, NinjaPenguin. I'll wait for Wailord to explain himself before I move my vote.

Silencer's are quite common, and usually belong to scum. The only ones who should be able to 'highly doubt' the existence of a silencer during D1 are the scum members.

...Nah, I'm gonna switch my vote here. I want to see an answer to this, and this may be as convincing as the Robin case to me, if not more by the end of it. Besides, this may help get an answer to this slip.

##Unvote
##Vote: Wailord_2


Please tell us why you've lied, Wailord. ^v^

Bandwagon.

I don't really understand the answer Wailord gave, but I'm not really sure what I can pursue of it after that response, so I'm gonna remove my vote.

##Unvote

Backpedal.

Huh, interesting. I'm trying to think of any school subjects that would be stereotyped like that, but I can't think of much...

Gonna guess Home Economics for now. That's all I can think of.

Role fishing.

...Wait, don't answer that, PP. That's a rolefish, and it'll give the scum more info than they need.


*goes off on a rant about how said subjects aren't like that in her eyes >:K*
As much as I love those subjects, they could be possible candidates. Highly doubt it though.

And when she realizes that, quickly distances herself.

It can be, but it can also show annoyance in the player. I see Robin's as the annoyed kind, though.

So you're not reading him as scum, but you're still trying to get him lynched?

Looks like BB was janitored. He could've grabbed the role card from the role PM, and wouldn't need to rely on Docs due to that.

Stating the obvious.

It might not have to be in every post. I do find this a bit suspicious, though. Is there an explanation to this, Camo?

I might have more to say later; on mobile right now.

Bandwagon.

Oh wait, missed that he answered the reads. I should read closer. Do you have any others, though? That's just typical Camo play you've listed.

Then defends Camo.

I would be talking more if I didn't have school bogging me down. Ironic, I know, but I haven't had the time to make proper posts.

I don't really think there's much to really be said right now, though getting some new reads and leads would be phenomenal.

Feels the need for defending herself against criticism against all players.


Summing up some points:
  • Contradictions
  • Bandwagoning
  • Backpedaling
  • Role fishing
  • Afraid of suspicion
  • Seems to know things only scum would know
  • Potential slips
 
While I suppose it doesn't really matter much in Camo's case if he's telling the truth about not having a vote today, I'm curious what makes him so sure that dos is confoscum that he places his unmovable vote on him this early in the day, without any case/defense. Am I missing something?
 
##VOTE DOUBLE O SQUIRTLE
Why are you so interested in everyone's actions mister SQUIRTLE

And this is to celever
I won't be able to bold often due to being on mobile mostly

UNVOYE: DOUBLE O SQUIRTLE
VOTE: INFERNO390

Realized that squirtle had nothing against anybody else and inferno seems pretty scummy

I feel like you deserve a vote bbninja, because you keep on either encouraging a lynch or trying to influence people. Pretty scummy to me

I think that PikaMasterJesi needing a V/LA looks like she doesn't want to talk and

shows that she is contradicting


##UNVOTE

##VOTE:pikaMasterJesi

These are the posts that SceptileMaster made that made me kind of question his alignment. He seemed to be really gunning for a lynch on day 1 really quickly, and instead of presenting new lynches with evidence he kind of just went along with the new bandwagon. Also when he was questioned about why he jumped on the lynch he would just back off, and unvote. He is a being a Fair Weather Fan when it comes to these lynches. If it is what everyone wants he jumps on, but when it is questionable he jumps off the bandwagon.

Another problem I saw skimming through the posts is that people seem to be hero worshiping vetran players. Camoclone is a very savvy and skilled player, but that doesn't mean he is town automatically. The biggest reason to trust Camo right now is because of his pro-town behaviors thus far.
 
##UNVOTE:
##VOTE : PIKAMASTERJESI


Why are you lurking?

I'm feeling more confident in the Robin lynch with every post he makes.

Continuing your bad attitude. Insulting people won't get you anywhere.

This is a bad excuse to avoid being called out for bandwagoning. Plenty of people "lurk." In fact, four people are "lurking" right now, including you.

NinjaPenguin seemed to be all for the lynch on Robin when he called out people for lurking, but ignored Camo getting on PiMaJe for what appeared to be lurking.


FoS on any veteran attacking Camo right now. You should know how he plays.
I don't like Robin's "vital knowledge"; it seems like another desperate move to save himself. If it really existed, you should have told us by now.
##VOTE: Robin Aisaga
Please tell us your info.
P.S.

He was scum in Dimensional Shift.

What points does the PP lynch have? It just feels like scum trying to push a lynch on an experienced player.

The reason why I brought this out is that NinjaPenguin's worship of Veteran players especially Camoclone is really anti-town. Saying anyone questioning another player is scummy is totally against the spirit of Mafia. No one is cleared unless the role is shown. Saying "You should know how he plays" as an excuse to just agree with him is extremely poor.

Also saying that lynchimg veteran players is scummy is maybe the most scummy post of the game. It is almost like you want to protect them because you have an invested interest in them. Experienced players are scum all the time. You can't assume someone's alignment based on experience.
 
@Mr.Muffin
I felt that double o squirtle was overanalyzing every post, but after the game developed a little, he started to give off towny vibes
I then voted for inferno since he was acting very suspicous.
The bbninja vote was a mistake, because I totally forgot that the game partially focused on influencing lynches and people.
The PikaMasterJesi contradiction was that before Celever and Jesi stated the V/LA were for private reasons that did not have anything to do about the game directly, I felt that it was suspicous to take a V/LA while being targeted as scum and being analyzed
 
Thank you for explaining your mindset for each of the posts.

I still disagree about the V/LA being related to the game play.
 
While I suppose it doesn't really matter much in Camo's case if he's telling the truth about not having a vote today, I'm curious what makes him so sure that dos is confoscum that he places his unmovable vote on him this early in the day, without any case/defense. Am I missing something?

My vote isn't unmovable.

Camo does those kind of votes to pressure. It's not legit.
Robin was trying to justify his vote with a stupid excuse (to avoid looking scummy, which is scummy in and of itself).
The reason why I brought this out is that NinjaPenguin's worship of Veteran players especially Camoclone is really anti-town. Saying anyone questioning another player is scummy is totally against the spirit of Mafia. No one is cleared unless the role is shown. Saying "You should know how he plays" as an excuse to just agree with him is extremely poor.

Jesi said:
Yet another OMGUS-like vote, but this one does have some good reasoning to it. Camo has barely said anything amounting to more than three separate rows of text this game.
and Robin said:
But you Camoclone are the master of hypocrites!
which were both calling Camo scummy for his MO of switching votes to pressure and get reads (even though they have played with him in the past and therefore know his playstyle). If that's the only reason to vote someone, it's not good at all.
My comment on PP was because the case on him was worthless at that point. I couldn't understand any of the points against him, and thought people wanted to lynch him to eliminate the more experienced players (like what happened with him and Camo last game).

If a veteran did something legitimately scummy, I would be fine lynching them.
