Day One.
You've viewed the thread both after you originally misquoted, after Prof P called you on it and then again after I have, EM. No waiting, the actual message now please.
This is a fish that was unnecessary.

Why not? He had already been called out for it. I was merely pointing out that he, too, was in fact also scummy. There were good reasons to vote EM at the time, and backing out of it the moment a tiny bit of pressure was put on him didn't seem very towny at all.

Moving on, while I agree that Squirtle Squad's odd behavior of repeatedly trying to convince us that he's town, when no one besides Camo was paying attention to him is a pretty good reason to be suspicious of him, I still think that it's something that he could do as town, as well, so I'm not entirely sold yet.

Someone who's also slightly making my scum radar go off is Celever. He seems more aggressive than usual which is giving me a somewhat uneasy feeling.

Then, add TGK's panicky response there at the start of the game, and I've got four candidates I'm choosing between at the moment. Though, I'm not sure who I want to go for right now, so I'll let things play out a bit more.
Simsands hit his learning curve last game. One of these is his scum buddy. Two have already flipped town.

@simsands, I'm always aggressive. That's how pressuring in this game gets results!
Celever's aggression Day 1 was a bit more than normal. That's not necessarily scummy.

I actually agree with everything in Camo's case. I think this D1 is gonna go down in the history books lol.
Bolded part appeals to me.

And yeah, reads from you is a good idea, @Squirtle Squad. You haven't even provided an alternative lynch.
Rephrasing what I said. It's interesting how he has such a strong drive to lead. It's not exclusive to this game.

I wish you were my maths teacher Camo, it'd be way more simple :v
Appeal to me.

I've been keeping a note of SS' biggest defenders. These are bb and Xerneas. After SS posted his claim, bb continued an attempt to save his buddy, which actually defied rationality and was an inconceivably huge stretch for an ordinarily analystic player.

Mark my words, one of bb and Xerneas is scum too.
He jumps ahead for basically no reason. SS didn't flip yet so there is no reason to call them out. By doing so he is pressuring them to agree.

This is a good example of how pressuring someone for a realistically quite minor thing on Day 1 can actually be very lucrative. Also noting you defense of SS there, @The Healer.
Again very premature.

EM, there is nothing more aggravating than a player who is softclear and doesn't use that status. You're literally not gonna attract votes because of your role, so what's the point of it shying away from the thread? It defies rationality.
He believes he is soft-cleared. What caused him to change his view so much?

You don't need to defend yourself because your role defends you for you.
Yet he pushed for EM so strongly.


SS is lynched and flips town. Stay tuned for Day 2.
 
Ice Espeon
Claimed to be the sister of E_m who was town. The fact that he has gone this long uncontested means he is probably telling the truth but the paranoid part of me wants to believe it's a safe claim. He tried to get E_m to stop being an idiot, which he wouldn't really need or want to do as scum, so I'm inclined to believe that he's actually town.

Celever
Day one when SS posted his role, Celever dismissed it:
SS could very easily be a scum pegasus knight though. I know you fight Aversa when she's a dark flier, which is a promotion from pegasus knight. While it's not confirmed, it is likely that the scum will also start as base classes for balance purposes. As such, getting the pegasus knight skills correct actually means nothing. Furthermore, the fact that safeclaims are in the game means that all of the above speculation isn't worth much, as SS would have been given Cordelia's skills even if he is scum. Either way it was a reach for a defence and very weak.

This sounds a lot like giving off the impression that you are trying to piece together something you already know, and it has more weight since SS flipped town.

Presumably this game has a lot of customisation for the scum team too, though. I doubt that, for example, Aversa would be stuck as a Dark Flier for the entire game when everyone else gets a myriad of skills.

another example of the above

But if we shared a scum QT, why would we need to communicate things to each other like that in the public thread? That would be rather dumb, yes?

wifom.

I think @mordacazir is Stahl. Mord, am I right? If so, you're town, so we won't need to waste time pressuring you. And no, this isn't a role fish because we learn nothing about his abilities from his role name.

This is definitely a role fish. While we don't learn exactly what abilities a player has since there are multiple options for class changing, you do learn what they don't have (it's like if I said I'm a Squirtle, you wouldn't know what moves I know but you do know I don't know Sleep Powder or Flamethrower, and know that Withdraw and Hydro Pump are possibilities).

Also, there was this post which you "liked". If you agree with the premise that you should not lynch players for being disruptive, but because they are scum, then why would you ever suggest to lynch bbninjas, who is basically confirmed town at this point? And don't try to pretend that he could actually be scum, he has posted Skype logs between him and Vom about the whole thing and this has merit since you yourself have conversed with them on Skype about the goings-on of this game. He is telling the truth about his role and at this point I only think you're trying to get him lynched because it would look really bad for you to all of a sudden stop trying to push for a lynch you've been trying for all game long.

Also, this post reminded me of what you said recently about scattered mind:

scattered mind said:
If not simsands, who do you think should be lynched ? If it's still KX, what is the case and how much info can we get from it?
Either KX or Prof P. I'm not gonna build a case beyond what I've already posted about them so far itt because simsands will be lynched today, and I have other things to do. Info we can get from it? A fair amount if we look into interactions.

It reads similar to this situation, like you don't want to bother formulating a case because there is already a lynch target with a case on them (then it was simsands, now it's mord).

Then there's this little spat you had with Camo, remember this? Here are some choice quotes:

PMJ instigated the turbo. Check your facts <3
He didn't instigate the turbo portion of the lynch, he instead instigated the lynch itself.

(backpedal)

Nono, let's go over what just happened. Camo tried to state that me calling for a turbo on EM was anti-town. As soon as I responded to this, he dropped that line of interrogation, because he realised he doesn't actually have a case.
No, he didn't, not at that point in time. He asked you why you said I started the turbo when by your own admission I didn't.

The difference is that you're saying I lied about a subjective statement, whereas EM laid out his case as clear fact. You can't lie about something entirely subjective -- you can only be wrong about it. You don't lynch people for getting stuff wrong.

"PMJ instigated the turbo." is not a subjective statement. You can go back and look and check the truthfulness of it.

Also

You don't lynch people for getting stuff wrong.

Don't pretend for one second that you believe this. People have been lynched for having mod-issued typos in their role PMs and for literally nothing more than that so let's not kid ourselves here.

Camoclone said:
Why did you say that PMJ was the one who called for the turbo when this was obviously untrue?
Camoclone said:
Dodge dodge dodge. Never an answer. He likes to direct attention to something or someone else.
Your statement is subjective. Maybe you think what I said was wrong, but it wasn't a lie. You're trying to abuse a policy in Lynch All Liars to get me caught.

Once again, I will bring up the metaphor here that you're putting the illegal substance in my bag so that you can arrest me for having an illegal substance. I would like an answer as to why you tried to bait me into WIFOM earlier, but you won't give it to me.

I'd also like an answer as to why you're only getting on my case now. But if we had a major argument, it would distract the town from quality scumhunting, and I don't want that. Maybe you do, but I'd much rather listen to the reads of other players right now.

@quakingpunch73, you're somewhat enigmatic rn because you've just subbed in. Do you think you could provide a quick reads list so we can gauge where your thoughts lie on the other players? It'd be really useful :)

This exchange is funny because Camo said you do a thing and then you went and did exactly that.

Camoclone said:
I'll play this game. Answer these questions completely.

4. Why did you say that PMJ started the turbo?
4. PMJ started the lynch.

Expert dodge here, this doesn't answer that question at all no matter how much you want us to think it does.

Camo changed his question from "who tried to start a turbo?" into "who started the turbo?".

This is another one of those statements you can check the truthfulness of, and guess what? It's a lie. Camo never asked about who 'tried' to start a turbo because the identity of who did it was never in question because both you

You're reaching so hard rn. PMJ reinitiated pressure on EM yesterday. He was the main force behind votes on EM. OK, he didn't say "let's turbo lynch him", he just said "let's lynch him" and then when he wasn't around, I was the one who said "let's turbo lynch him" because circumstances changed. This is totally true.

and he

Camoclone said:
Let's look at what happened yesterday. EM was basically confo town. Celever freaked and tried to push a turbo on a CONFO-town. Any questions? This is really quite a simple situation.

were in agreement that you were the one who tried to do it, regardless of whether or not it actually happened.

Next:

It's important for all players in this game rn to makes a readslist rn. There are a few players who I think are probably anti-town at this stage (scattered mind, bb, Prof P, KX) but I don't know where any of the rest of the game stands on these players, so I can't tell who would be a good player to build a case on etc. etc..

Translation: I claim to have scum reads but won't try to pursue them unless everyone else agrees with me

The only person I've seen you post anything of substance on is bbninjas, and that case is bunk. You refuse to post a case on scattered mind, and the worst I've seen you post about PP and KX is that they might be all scum buddies with bb (except he's town, so there goes that theory). Never minding that, not trying to get your scum reads lynched, or not posting your cases on them so they can be analyzed later in the event of your death, is anti-town. Even if you flip scum, your theories and scum hunting can still have merit because there are two scum teams, so you have no reason not to post about them.

By the way, this isn't the first time you've tried to goad reads lists out of the town:

OK, now this actually is somewhat scummy. Reads only really help the town. There's always the argument that it allows scum to steer discussion with their kill, and I do admit this, but it only works if the town puts too much stock in analysing nightkills, and it helps town in the long run if we refer back to the reads posts.

I already know what you're going to say and you are right, nowhere in this post does it explicitly ask for reads, but the intent is there.

Camoclone said:
Town doesn't need five people to post full reads. Scum does. You may disagree but you are just wrong here.

I think this is still true. We have plenty of reads and more than a couple suspects (you listed four! let's have cases.), so pressuring everyone to post up-to-the-minute scum reads is a little unnecessary right now. I'm posting my list because I haven't done it yet this game, and I had already said I was going to.

scattered mind said:
Well. It seems like a big contradiction but I can see how it's not-
The contradiction is that you said PMJ started the turbo, then you said that you are the one who asked for the turbo and then said that a turbo never happened.
But- I think you meant PMJ started the lynch that was going to be a turbo (not calling it a turbo) then you asked for the lynch to be a turbo lynch, and that eventually the turbo never happened (=EM never got turbo lynched)
Have I got it right?

Yup, you're spot on with that, scattered! :D

180px-BuddyBuddyRescueBREAKthrough135.jpg


No wonder you won't post your case on scattered mind.

mord isn't going to be targeted by the silence again.

You seem sure about this. Why are you so sure?

The silence was probably an item. Whether it's by his scumbuddies (WIFOMy defense wooh!), an opposing scumteam (possibly giving credibility to mord's report wooh!) or a townie who's not keeping up to date on the game very well, we don't know.

Pointless wifom. Everything after "The silence was probably an item" was unnecessary. And who said anything about items? A+ slip here, I think we just found the guy who silenced mord.

Your case to lynch mord is also wifom because we don't know why he hadn't posted his results and until he tells us otherwise, it's wifom.

thegrovylekid
I read him as town largely because I read Jabberwock as indie. He said he gave Second Seals to both Jabberwock and Celever, which both of them confirmed. This kind of role would not be good on scum because they could just pass the seals around to each other and screw everyone else over; the fact that this possibility exists is enough for me to see him as town. If Jabberwock flips scum (not town or indie), I'll go back and look at his posts in more detail, but until then he's confirmed in my eyes.

Professor Palutena
Hopped on Squirtle Squad's bogus wagon and gave a really lame reason for doing so. That said, I give him town credit for being forthcoming during the lie detector phase as he was the one of the first, if not the first, to post everything bbninjas asked. His posts read townlike for the most part, but the ease of which he bandwagoned Squirtle Squad (and his defense of Reinforce) don't sit quite well with me.

Jabberwock
bandwagoned SS. I chuckled at this quote:

##UNVOTE: MORDACAZIR
##VOTE: SIMSANDS

simsands is at L-4, I think. Don't hammer, guys.

>Don't hammer, guys.
>proceeds to vote, bringing the hammer closer

If you don't want to risk a lynch on someone, don't vote for them? This sounds like you're trying for town cred; voting for the clear scum and cautioning against a hammer (but you still helped bring the hammer down).

I was thinking about this, and I figure if there's an indie, they could get the NK after the scum leader(s) die(s).

This was posted day three after discussing how Drac was killed on a night that Professor Palutena suggested he shouldn't have been, because he thought that for some reason the night kill wouldn't be passed on to a teammate since it was directly connected to simsands's ability. What's weird about it is how just... out there it is. Like, it's a weird premise. But I suppose it's not so weird to you since you're the indie, right? Nice slip.

None of your posts are particularly invested in any one person's lynch. Focusing on the announcer's identity is pointless and a way to appear invested in the town. If you hadn't said that I don't think anyone would be on your case right now but since you did, and we are, gg scumz

Camoclone
Soft cleared from Reinforce's role. I don't think he was expecting his vote on Squirtle Squad to gain any steam, but gain it did, and we ended up getting some good discussion out of it.

Vracken
Flies under the radar a lot, even after reading through ten pages and someone mentions him I forget that he is in this game. I feel like if he were scum his buddies would be pressuring him to post more. Also his reluctance to vote for E_m when he would have not been seen as scummy do so awards him a bit of town cred in my eyes.

King Xerneas
Soft cleared from Reinforce's role, but his posts read pretty townlike to me. Said this a while ago. Though I don't like this quote:

I made a post quite some time ago about me not having much of an opinion since there is really no hard evidence to even start a scum lead. At this point I'm just waiting for something of actual substance since we literally are all grasping at straws at this point.

This is blatantly false no matter how you look at it. There is plenty to go off of.

Luispipe8
He's another one of those guys whose posts aren't really that meaningful, he just pops in, says a thing, and then dips out. That said, bbninjas went through his posts extensively and since I am confident that bbninjas is town I will trust his reads of Luis.

bbninjas
Cleared through role results, Skype chat (as evidence, not directly confirming), and Reinforce's role.

scattered mind
My biggest piece of evidence is that he came to Celever's defense in regards to the "PMJ instigated the turbo" discussion. I posit that since Celever already had Camoclone breathing down his neck about being caught in a lie, Celever had scattered mind post what Celever wanted to say so that way Celever could continue his charade. If Celever flips town, I'll take another look and see if my opinion changes.

Reinforce
The biggest argument against him is that he was seen near Drac when he was killed. Professor Palutena suggested that it was an indie's doing, but we can't really prove that until someone flips indie. If it's not Jabberwock, I don't know who it could be. All of his reads should be taken with a grain of salt (minus anyone cleared via other means).

mordacazir
Flustered a bit when camo pressured him early on. When he voted for SS day one he all but admitted it was a bandwagon vote. He got silenced, but that doesn't necessarily mean he's town, just that he's (probably) not on the team that silenced him, which lines up since I'm looking at Celever for doing so. Why he didn't do it is just wifom so there's no point in getting into it.

simsands
He's dead, I know, I just want to point out how he thought he had Drac figured out and was completely wrong about him, maybe that will learn you that Drac is literally unreadable

quakingpunch73
thegrovylekid's case on him has good points. The whole thing with him saying he needs mord alive and then suddenly saying he doesn't sounds like a slip to me (emphasis mine):

I personally need Morda alive as well because he will help me use one of my skills which I would prefer to keep private until I need it.
I don't need morda at all, honestly. My ability and skills don't involve him in anyway. I had an idea to find scum using him, but I won't elaborate on that for now, as to not lead scum on to my plan. I'm planning on waiting for a vote count to vote, but it currently lies on @Vracken, for, as you stated, not having a reason for being inactive, but if need be, I won't hesitate to lynch @Celever and @mordacazir.

Oops.
 
Read both my Day 1 analysis and PMJ's full analysis on Celever. While we share some points others are completely different.
 
Why he didn't do it is just wifom so there's no point in getting into it.

To clarify, what I meant here was, "Trying to guess why mord didn't post his results before being silenced by the mods is just wifom so there's no point in getting into it."
 
I only said what Celever meant. I'm never going to lynch someone over misunderstanding, but for actual evidence. That's not to say there is not a real evidence against him, as the simple math continues - Celever said that bb and KX are scummy- both 99% confirmed town and as usual he never built an actual case on any of them just like GM Drac. (and myself, though I am not confirmed town so that's not relevant).
@bbninjas- Why are you so against a Celever lynch?

I agree with Camo- we should get morda to speak tomorrow so we will get more info. I think @Jabberwock is a better option for today. I already pointed out his focus on the announcer's identity to appear town and the morda vote which he did first smell scummy to me as an attempt from the scumteam that silenced morda to push for his lynch.

So it is Celever, Jabberwock or Vracken imo that should be lynched today- the question is who gives us more info. Vracken is very scummy imo since he is dodging questions, but I'm not sure how much info if any, we can get out of him.

@quakingpunch73 - Can you explain your contradiction?
 
Jabberwock - Neutral - Short posts and generally contributing, but hasn't really stood out to me. Only now I think that it's possible he's lurking on purpose. PMJ's idea about him is interesting.

PMJ has posted his idea about Jabber. What do you think?
 
Can't figure out how you gather that I'm the indie from that post. I made a guess as to how the NK could have been transferred, taking into account that there could be an indie in the game. o_O

On another note:
My "contradiction" was just bad wording on my part. My ability and skills don't involve him, like how Lissa's supposed ability involved Chrom. I was trying to say that he would help me execute my plan, not necessarily use my skills or ability, like Lissa and Chrom again.
^This stinks of a backpedal to me. Your posts in general are pretty well thought out; it doesn't seem to me like you would accidentally replace "plan" with "skill" like that and then not realize it later.

Also, assuming you read through the pages before being subbed in, you understand that the more convoluted a plan is (and this sounds pretty convoluted to me), the less likely it is to work.
 
I only said what Celever meant.

That is literally my point.

I'm never going to lynch someone over misunderstanding, but for actual evidence. That's not to say there is not a real evidence against him, as the simple math continues - Celever said that bb and KX are scummy- both 99% confirmed town and as usual he never built an actual case on any of them just like GM Drac. (and myself, though I am not confirmed town so that's not relevant).

bb is 100% town, King Xerneas I won't put a percentage on since Reinforce's results cannot be completely trusted.

@bbninjas- Why are you so against a Celever lynch?

I agree with Camo- we should get morda to speak tomorrow so we will get more info. I think @Jabberwock is a better option for today. I already pointed out his focus on the announcer's identity to appear town and the morda vote which he did first smell scummy to me as an attempt from the scumteam that silenced morda to push for his lynch.

So it is Celever, Jabberwock or Vracken imo that should be lynched today- the question is who gives us more info. Vracken is very scummy imo since he is dodging questions, but I'm not sure how much info if any, we can get out of him.

So commit.

Can't figure out how you gather that I'm the indie from that post. I made a guess as to how the NK could have been transferred, taking into account that there could be an indie in the game. o_O

This is dumbtelling; there's nothing that would suggest that an indie would gain the night kill when a scum leader dies. This theory is so far out there that the only way we can see you proposing it is if you were the indie and you got control of the kill when simsands died and that's why Drac died last night.
 
I /really/ fail to see how ninjas is 100% town. He's gained some town cred from simsands' lynch, yeah, but I firmly think he can be in the opposite scum team. Besides, his whole "case" on me was right after I claimed I was suspicious of him, so it's a bit OMGUS-y.

It's out there, perhaps, but I like to consider all possibilities. I don't think that makes me any less town. I went back and reread the OP after Drac died, and saw this line:
  • In this game, there are two main factions, the Shepherds, otherwise known as town, and Grima’s Servants, otherwise known as scum. There may be a third, smaller faction, commonly known as the Independents.
No idea if it makes sense in the context of the game, though. >.>

But wouldn't that be literally the stupidest thing to do? I mean, imagine a murder where you have an unknown murder weapon. If you're a suspect and out of the blue say that the weapon was a spoon (?), you're going down hard. And if it's a way to drive attention off you so they don't think it's you then it's a really pitiful one. It's more likely that I get announcer /yet/ another game. :VVVVVV

I believed his claim before he posted his case on you. His role has strong evidence of being truthful thanks to his OC with Vom. Both he and Celever did it.

I also like to consider all possibilities. Here's one: You're a liar, you slipped, and you are scum.

This wifom reasoning is exactly why he posted it. He could easily say what you've said, but it doesn't jive. He slipped, plain and simple.
 
I'm not doubting ninjas' claim itself, but its alignment. As someone said before, he could easily be a scum seer.

And yeah, I guess you're pretty much right. Besides, it's better for us that it's a slip, so I'll take that.
 
Vom all but confirmed his role for us. He's not scum.
 
If you think lie detectors are anything but town you are delusional.
