Yo. I'm back!
- The scums are likely Equinox/CKD.
- Vi has a completely different vibe from the way he was last game ( dunno if it's the ava :) ). His over committed defense for Equinox also looks town.
- At first I suspected VP + SR of playing the distancing card at the start because their points against each other were so trivial until post #54, 55, 56 dispelled my suspicion to a large extent. However, I'm still noting this possibility as they have recently gotten inexplicably friendly towards each other.
- No read on St.Kerrigan.

Now why is the scumteam Equinox + CKD you may ask:
CKD
: His style has changed drastically from the last game. His former-game gambit suggested that he was eager to scum hunt at game beginning ( which is opposite from me actually =P ), while in this game he hardly makes an attempt to scum-hunt, resorting instead to mostly jokes and masochist-like comments while masking himself with votes on the inactives :D.
Equinox:

- #79 was where I begin to suspect Equinox. She arrived when the CKD wagon was rolling and had a lot of evidence to L-1 Vote CKD. Now her vote was okay and all, but immediately after her vote was a clumsy attempt to disprove her own case by questioning CKD's Best Mafia Performance relative to his performance this game. I see no clear-cut reason why she would think of let alone bring out something to mar her own case.
- Her next posts:
Equinox wrote: No, I am not unvoting until you give me what I want. You haven't done that yet.
#88: CKD gave her something she wanted that doesn't make sense to me
#90: Equinox unvotes CKD
--> Looks really theatretical to me.

Equinox wrote: I didn't back down because of the claim; I backed down because of curiouskarmadog's tone. 83 and then 88 read like town frustration rather than faked anger.
Neither 83 or 88 reveal signs of anger when I read it. I'm calling fluffs on this explanation.

Equinox wrote: nopointinactingup > SaintKerrigan > Vi > curiouskarmadog > VP Baltar > sottyrulez > Equinox

Unfortunately, that spectrum is more town-skewed than I'd like, so that's more NULL -> TOWN than the usual SCUM -> TOWN. <_<

Gonna go read a few games and see if I can pin down my reads on the first three on the list.
This looks especially scummy coming from Equinox:
+ First, Equinox came in and L-1 CKD forcing a claim on CKD. Then, as if her unvoting wasn't scummy enough, she threw CKD at the middle of her spectrum at the town side with no explanation for why Vi looks worse or why CKD suddenly earned so much town cred.
+ Second, Equinox in my book likes playing town much more than she would be playing scum. Thus, her hesitance for a scum read makes me believe that she is in fact speaking from her own knowledge and perspective.
Vote:Equinox.

Equinox, you know very well I don't like Wall-of-Text.
Equinox wrote: tl;dr "CKD isn't playing like his meta, so he's probably scum."
More accurately put, CKD is not playing like his meta, so I have a definite suspicion on him.
Equinox wrote: First point of contention: "...which is opposite from me actually." Are you saying that you were unwilling to participate in the game initially? I understand that you had to go on V/LA for the greater part of the game day, so I apologize if I take your statement the wrong way. However, this piques my interest. Why?
I was on V/LA. I could say that I'm not so passionate in early game, whether I'm willing to participate or not. Why the sudden interest in digressing?
Equinox wrote: Second point of contention: While I agree that CKD not using his town status to maximum advantage is quite worrying, you... seem to disagree with the assessment of the majority here. What about CKD's claim and subsequent posts do you not believe?
Once again you are digressing. I did not state whether I believe in CKD or not. I simply think CKD is acting scummy.
Equinox wrote: I like to think that I am reasonable and will consider all facets of the evidence presented to me. If I feel something potentially throws a wrench in my read of a player, I will say as much unless I'm bluffing my way for a reaction.
If you are still considering the facets and such, why the quick L-1 vote? Your backpedalling suggests that you are uncertain about CKD yet you leave your vote at L-1.
Equinox wrote: This is in bolded green because I'm freaking awesome.
HOW DOES THIS NOT MAKE SENSE?! Isn't this the whole damn point of an interrogation?
You're stretching here, bud.
Ok. I see what you might have been thinking, but such quick change of heart still incriminates you.

Dude. You haven't been reading, have you? I have explained the L-1 and the claim. I have explained how my spectrum works.
So your sole reasoning for strongly believing in CKD-town is him being frustrated?

The logic the witness is presenting here is
absolute garbage
faulty.
Whether or not I like an alignment absolutely has no bearing on how I read players. A does not lead to B, which cannot lead to C.
It's not logic, more of a feeling on how you would read other players.
tl;drThank you, sir, for your participation, for you have helped me find the mafia, and his name is
nopointinactingup
.


VOTE: nopointinactingup
I'll give you one post to undo your scummy OGMUS.

At this point, I do have agree that Equinox's clarification make some sense. Whether or not she actually intends to force a claim on CKD is also dubious. I will need St.K's input to reevaluate my read.

No. I did mention him not scum-hunting but resorting to voting inactives.

I had considered all of the evidence when I put CKD at L-1. I considered MORE evidence that CKD posted following the vote and then unvoted. This again proves you are not reading.
Your evidence are not convincing enough to make me believe your read change was genuine.

Don't backpedal, hypocrite. What about the interrogation and my behavior following the results of said interrogation did not make sense to you?
Your "interogation" looks theatrical as I've pointed out. The way you "interogate" is as if you were expecting to Unvote regardless of his answers.

Look at your "case". There's nothing in there that Implies that I'm scum. It would be natural for you to OGMUS I suppose so I'm only giving you a chance to look back. If you don't, I'll take it as declaration of war and gear myself up for tunneling mode.

Actually, I correct my previous statement.
ITT NPAU continues to fail. Here is why.

nopointinfailing wrote:I doubt you have no definite suspicion after that much discussion.
sottyrulez was town.
VP Baltar was town.
Vi was town-ish.
SaintKerrigan did not offer any stances for me to analyze, so null.
NPAU was up, up, and awaaaaaayyyyyy. So null.

Who said I had to get scum reads from an argument? SOMETIMES TOWNSPEOPLE BICKER. NEWSFLASH.
The way I see it, our perception of one person changes with our perception of another given the knowledge that there are two scums. For example, if you had really thought Sotty, VP, Vi was town you would have automatically have scum read on St.K and NPAU. The fact that you had no scum read at that time questions the genuineness of your town reads.
Equinox wrote:

No because I look for scum teams, not solely scum. If St.K looks scummy for example, it would further disprove my case against Equi/CKD.

Why, yes, I enjoy being colorful. Now why are you so reluctant to go back and fetch the questions yourself? Reading my OH VERY ACCURATE WALLS getting too painful for you? I've been there, too, you know.
I've been there too .. except it was amusing. Let's just say I don't like doing the fetch duty. Why don't you just do it and I'll give you a cookie?

.
Day1 is stretching. 6 people is enough to use POE. And I don't expect you to stamp scum stickers on others heads in case you accidentally stamp them on yourself because you have so many town reads. The sense of balance, however, exists in you and regulates you whether you want it or not

Hence my demand on an St.K's input which you seem to be striving to prevent.
Equinox wrote: That your point that I was being "theatrical" about my read of CKD is bullshit. Not to mention easily disproven by the fact that you didn't find that evidence convincing in the first place, which means any conclusions contrary to yours that I drew wouldn't have felt genuine.
Exactly, I don't feel it genuine even if you do. Your point?
Now, I didn't backpedal with my read of CKD. I got a new read given new evidence. See, that's not the same as your situation; you just put your hands in the air when I shot at you, and I didn't even bring any evidence to the table. That, my friend, is backpedaling. Nice to meet you, too, Pot.

they're more likely to be calm about it because the case against them is largely correct.
If town get to L-1 and for reasons they feel are stupid, they're going to get mad. Can scum fake their anger? Of course. However, I felt that CKD was being genuine. (I still believe he's town, but I have reservations until he posts content again.)

tl;dr I don't take that as one response from CKD but two, but I suppose we can agree to disagree on this one.
So scums under pressure is more calm than a town? I hereby sentence Equinox's opinion to eternal imprisonment :evil:

3

Why do you think my Vi case sucks?
Because you are saying Vi is wrong, not Vi is scum.
1> I would have also missed such subtle interpretation. Why make it such a big deal?
2> So that's not really a scum point at all since the majority has the same opinion.

So ?
Second and following that, there is deliberately no mention of secondary suspicions if Equinox&&ckd doesn't fit his model. It thus seems somewhat unsurprising that he attacked St.K, although apparently Inspector K isn't scummy enough to unvote Equinox.
I thought you were better at reading.

I firmly believe CKD is town

You chuckled, implying it has been grossly exagerated

Uh... I can't think of any other way to word this.

Why is sottyrulez that high on your list?

Yay. I'm caught up. I need to put a rain check on my spectrum (more like top X suspects now) until I've calmed down from some NPAU-hate. That post REALLY bugged me.
What makes you think SR is town? So far you've only been saying it and preemptively defending the fact that you're saying it.
Vi wrote: Day 1 in Pie E7 has two goals.
*Lynch scum
*Failing the above, prevent the scum from learning who the power roles are

I believe at this point we've failed utterly at the latter. Therefore I want to
massclaim
here and now before the scum team can plan for it together. This way we can have a better chance at the former, since it's either that or nothing. Given that literally everyone is suspected by someone given the vote count and has a not-so-small chance of being lynched - plus the notion that scum have seen as much of the softclaiming as I have ITT - confirming the power roles Today wouldn't be a waste. Of course I've already worked out the best-plays for various outcomes but I'm not going to go into that now.

Ideally curiouskarmadog can pick the first person to claim, since he has already claimed and nobody actually seems to think he's scum.
Give your thoughts on the advantages of claiming and how it is the best course of action. Or else you are blatantly role fishing one way or another.

Which turns out to be a wall. But I don't blame you for the inevitable. Welcome to the game.

I may have worded it wrong, Equinox hoping for a claim would be more precise.

If you don't bother to respond then answer why you refuse to go into the pros and cons of mass claiming before trying to convince us to do so?

Read my response to his massclaim suggestion carefully.
Question: Who do you think is most likely Equi's partner?

It's possible, albeit unlikely, for the massclaim to backfire. But I don't want to go into explicit theoretical detail about the pros and cons so as to sway how scum should re/act.

Everything you need to know is mentioned in that paragraph. If you're too lazy to read it again, here it is in even shorter form.
*Pros:
Massclaim occurs before scum can coordinate it, massclaim is not as likely to hurt Town because the power roles are very likely to be obvious by this point
, it will make it more likely for us to lynch scum D1 (at which point it will become much easier for Town to win).
*Cons: The scum will definitely know who the power roles are, as opposed to
probably
knowing who the power roles are.
Unvote.Vote:Vi
for the underlined part. Since my role should be obvious if I express suspicion of Vi's massclaim suggestion. I'm outing myself as
Town Doctor
. However,
I suggest we end massclaim
at me in order not to reveal our investigative role.

Now the reason Vi is rolefishing "one way or another":
- Massclaiming today is detrimental to town in that no town PR will be effective at night.
- Vi could not possibly have seen who the obvious town PRs are.
- The point of the underlined post was a rolefish within a rolefish. PRs like me will know that it is fluffs and thus, expressed disagreement with Vi's massclaim suggestion, therefore outing ourselves to Vi.

-If we don't lynch scum, yes. But then that's not different from what happened last game, and Town had a good shot then. In any event, this massclaim IS our best chance at lynching scum Today for reasons that will become apparent at the end.
-Dead wrong.
-See above.
Were you sure I'm a power role? If so why? Why did you mention that you know who the PRs are?

Even assuming you are telling the truth, the scum would still have to take a 50/50 at 2 of [Equi, Lewarcher, Sotty, St.K]. That's not 100%.

Unvote.
SPEAK.

Resorting to blank statement now?
Why not answer and if your answer is satisfying, we'll proceed to massclaim.

I think that would be unwise.

It would not be a complete loss for me to stop now and reveal what I'm trying to do. However, it would blunt the effectiveness of the strategy.
Would you like for me to do that?
I want to hear others thoughts, not follow others' thoughts. Why not more input? Your strategy can wait. Just do nothing for now since I've already unvoted you.
Incidentally, npau, where do you live?

Ok. So right now we can either
1> Lynch Lewarcher or SR
2> Lynch St.K

I'll give my thoughts tomorrow after a reread.

Basically I was sorting through thoughts to Sotty, but I didn't pay attention to the messenger window and sent said messages to VP instead. (They made our alignment obvious.) VP was unable to continue without revealing his alignment to us as a result, so he had to replace out.

I feel so bad about the whole thing.
xD What would you have done VP?

So once again my reads were straight off the path. But Vi saves the day I guess :D. After some of Equinox's crazy posts I didn't think Equinox was scum any more and started working on my failed [Vi-CKD] theory xD, until Vi's benchmark post ofcourse.
