Okay so I've started doing this really early game reads thing, because it gets excellent reactions. The reads themselves aren't random, just based off of very little, like small language tells. For example iamausername reacted adversely when I used it in That 70s Smalltown (she was scum, I had a scumread on her as a result), and CES and DDDP have been subjected to it too, in [redacted]. I used it in some Open with glowball once, basing both of my reads off of confirmation enthusiasm -- and both of them were town as I predicted.
I've started to put a lot more stock in language tells, actually. They're right up there with VCA, in my eyes. In Box Office Mafia, they went a long way to finding chamber!scum (too bad nobody believed me).
So anyway I'll go pick out who I think scum are from that. I agree with the lewarcher vote, by the way.-

Your recent posts sound heavily like outraged scum being caught. I'll need to meta you to see how you generally react when run up.-

Attention, please. Roxi is likely a double voter, which means that you guys potentially put me at L-1 in 6 hours for no reason. Before you decide to quickhammer me, let me know. It's ridiculous to be put in the situation that requires such a warning 24 hours from game start, but well, I have no other choice.

This is extremely scummy, especially coming from someone with your experience: cutting d1 short is never pro-town.
However, please answer my direct question before discussing my comment. You want me hammered right now?

You're almost completely correct. I did have an initial town read for the unexplained vote on jason, but I thought people would point out that this could come from either alignment, so I just made an attempt at sounding humorous. I did have exams to rush off to, though.
The fact that you are pushing me as scum for my questionable town read on Sotty when I posted 1) selfmeta which shows me doing this only as town and 2) a bunch of other reads which are also based on very little substance and were yet not called into question is rather deliciously stupid.
What's even dumber is that you propose I am 'buddying' Sotty from my weak read on her from one post, despite the two points made above.
In no posts do you draw any connection between my actions and my alignment, apart from the hilarious buddying accusation mentioned above.-

You guys are going to have to endure srs Quilford this game because of xvart. >___>
Let's consult the facts.
1.zoraster posted that alignment was randomised. That means that people with a specific animal as their pet won't all be the same alignment unless random.org determined otherwise, which is highly improbable.
2.lewarcher claimed to be a role who dies when he targets dogs and kills his target when he targets cats. That means lewarcher kills cats regardless of alignment.
Because he is killingregardless of alignment, it only makes sense that he is self-aligned.
If you're thinking that that's a really underpowered third party role, he probably has the ability to rolecop someone during the day or something like that... guessing people's pets would make it chance for him.
Obviously none of this applies if he'sstilllying about his role, but I don't think he is.
So, it's up to whether we want a third party role who might be able to kill scum alive or dead at the end of Day 1. I'm not sure myself, but I'm leaning heavily towards dead.-

Arbitrarily how?
Pets' alignments are randomised and yet he only kills cats.
Look, he could be town. But with the pet in question having passed away, the role being described as an assassin, all the things lewarcher's done today, and another alive pet, I don't think he is.
But now I'm actually uncomfortable lynching him. .______________.-

Ah, but here, Role PMs were written after alignment was randomised.

Because people are never in a position where they'd claim their pet. (This observation basically amounts to "he's better off not using his action early on"; not a big deal.)
It's not just early on. It's until someone claims that they're a cat.-

Which means, given say 2 scum cats, it makes even more sense as a role? I don't see the problem.
It makes even more sense as a third party role, yes, considering lewarcher's actions and claim.-

I think you've just demonstrated why I don't think he's an SK... That's a really difficult win condition to achieve. It's still possible, but come on, it's a lot more plausible as a town limited vig.
Of course if he were a Serial Killer he wouldn't just have a killing ability and that's it.
But Town Limited Vigs, like the example CES provided in PYP, don'tdiewhen they target someone they can't kill. Therefore I think he is a serial killer with extra powers to help him on his way. Otherwise he would be useless as town.
Nevertheless, I have unvoted, and it wasn't because of CES' claim-

Just like Baby Spice in Zor's Strategy Mafia game.
His described role doesn't sound like a legitimate serial killing role because of the 'you die if you shoot the wrong thing' aspect and the reduced target pool.
The way he claimed, rolling it out in two phases and mentioning Mao was killed by a dog, sounded like he has the role he has claimed even if he's scum.
Also scum totally gave town useful strategy advice (scum had ways of killing through doors) in Strategy Mafia.
Telling people not to massclaim is like the easiest thing to say town sounding things about ever.
Amrun? This sounds pretty damning.-

HOW does that sound pretty damning? It doesn't at all. He's saying the exact thing I'm saying: lew's probably not an SK because of the dying thing.
He's also saying he's probably mafia... or at least, he did.

Yeah I also don't like KK, looked like he was being proactive by pushing the lew lynch but that came to very little and he's faded since, so.
Ghostlin: I'm pretty sure I voted you because your posts surrounding the lewarcher lynch yesterday seemed opportunistic in the same way that KK's did, but you were being more subtle about it-

Amrun - rethinking a read (especially from scum to town on a townie) is a towntell.
Lewarcher - I read through several times as town and nothing blared wut at me. Reading through as scum I kept getting hooked on things like "He is thinking about 2 possibilities then decides on one of them soon thereafter while not under pressure -> is solving puzzle -> is town" or "feel free to meta me" (sounds 'I've-got-nothing-to-hide-ish) or 'kick VI's ass for lynching me' (this variant of you'll be sorry sounds kinda townish), etc. I JUST WANT HIM TO SCUMHUNT SOMETHING.
Iffy:
CES - he has a couple of decent early posts, but mostly is just watching. I could see faking governor from either angle.
Scum:
DDDP - Scumterse except for setup talk and fencesitty commentary on me / Quilford. Not enough puzzling the game out. Also 414 scumlink to Quilford wheee.
Jason - II had town on him early but I was totally wrong. 135, 161, the quote striping post is just amazing and the glowball vote is :terrible:
Would Jason make that level of wall as scum / town?
Why Reck indeed.
Also I didn't actually see how craptastic these reads were until now.-

Pfft okay, whatever. I'm almost 100% sure that you're both the same alignment, and that it's more likely to be scum.
@saulres: My Census Taker ability,like the Tracking ability I also have, (and which is making me very confused about Llamarble's alignment because I'm not sure whether a one-shot Tracker and a full Tracker would exist on the same faction) is one-shot.
Pretty sure Ghostlin's scum, too: questions like these

So I'm fine with a vote on any of the three but I'd prefer it was one of Llamarble or VPB.
Can anyone tell me how Llamarble's tone and playstyle in this game resemble his town and scum meta? Because sometimes I get town vibes from them, and it's not good for my reads.-
