It's odd because you haven't really responded/nor said anything till I brought up the possibility of you being a compromise lynch which makes me think that you are only posting for self-survival. It's something that makes me scratch my head because why now/why just the hypothetical instead of literally tons of people listing you as #2, but as soon as someone brings you to possibility as a #1 maybe, you come in questioning.

I mostly wanna look at Zalak, Maven, and Koopa more. Unfortunately, since Generic is not here at the moment, we can't really discuss him too much. Zalak is just so confusing to me and I really want to figure it out. Maven seems way too... I think "coast-y" is how J put it, which I agree with. He comes in with some inputs and then just leaves without making anything of note.
Zalak Zalak : You really gotta work on your skimming dude.

That was yesterday though, and she didn't explicitly say she would like to lynch Maven. She said she wanted to look at Maven, and those two things are very different. J I don't want to fight with you, but can you please reduce the needless antagonizing, and just answer me when I ask a question?

thanks for the apology I guess??? I'm not gonna push this further though, because I don't want to derail this game. one question though, was there an actual gameplay related reason for your attempt to call out my poor skimming skills?

Well yes, there is a game reason because skimming is something that you want to avoid and most of your questions can usually be answered by reading the thread more in-depth. This conversation would not have been a thing if you just slowed down in mafia games.

It wasn't a snide comment, but more of a suggestion because I would like to help you grow as a player even though this isn't a newbie game. It's quite literally my job as the mod to create an open environment with learning experiences for all for the community to remain strong and healthy.

I'll start where I left off. I'm missing about the last two pages which I'll get to next but I just wanted to get the quotes I had out.


Honestly Zalak I find even talking about possibly...not talking about the assassins to be one of the scummier suggestions I've seen put into the beginning of a game. Like there's no way to play mafia without discussion
I didn't see how Zalak could find value in that discussion at all, and wondered if he was just bringing it up in the hopes someone else would run with it. I didn't see any other reason someone would even bring up something like that. That's my point there. I didn't catch Zalak's first post where he intially said he wasn't advocating it, but the post I just quoted is not based on him advocating it but just on him bringing it up. I

On that note and considering the only thing being drawn is "How to play this game", we really need to move away from talking about that and focus on what other players are saying and doing. Focusing on the set-up when it's pretty clear and easy to get from the OP/Set-up that we are supposed to do.

Almost everything regarding set-up or "what do" posts have been entirely null so far sans the recent stuff with Zalak. People need to stop hiding and come out and play already.
Just gonna point out this is J's very first post, and he comes in telling us to stop talking about the only thing that's brought up discussion while at the same time complaining that other people aren't doing that.

I don't mind being questioned. I have nothing to hide. The "lie" you caught me in is nothing more but a twisting of words on your part. "Investigation into/the death of" I've played a bit of mafia on this site, and a lot on other sites. It's quite obvious Spak would not kill anyone, off one post from a null slot, on page 5. Language like that, however, serves to apply pressure, without any actual danger of a hasty execution. I made cases against them instead of asking questions for two reasons: first, they're going to respond to the case I made. No reason to question, when I made the post partially to demonstrate what I meant about making cases directly at the king (that being the second reason). I wasn't looking for any reads specifically, other than gauging their respective reactions, and spurring discussion. And, hey, now we're discussing things! For better or for worse, my slot is no longer null, and neither is yours.
On a re-read, I actually like this post right here. I suggest people re-read it because it makes quite a bit of sense.


I'm actually fine with executing Generic right now
This was a bad post

I find that unlikely. It was pretty clear - to me anyway - that in the discussion between Zalak and yourself, you had the better arguments. Looking at the amount of "likes" you've received for some of your posts and the general support you got I'm sure I'm not the only one who felt that way. You're basically saying that scum!Generic would use that scenario to lynch you when Zalak would be the easy target to go for. I'm not really seeing that as a likely thing.

:059:
This is a good post, and you're right. Based on this, if Generic was scum it'd make Zalak way more likely to be scum.


I feel morbid, but literally any of 6 slots in my mind can go and I wouldn't really feel too upset.
Maven89 Maven89 : I'll answer your question if you can give me a valid reason to rank them for a D1 read's list. The way I look at it, most of D1 is a crapshoot unless something inherently obvious happens. People know that I dislike Generic especially since I am the one who began the push on his slot and brought attention to his play.
Cause you said you'd be fine with 6 people dying but then didn't tell anyone who they were and despite talking about Generic you didn't seem to really care about it.


Finally Koopa comes in and attributes nothing new to the thread content and I'm just sitting here wondering what his goal is. The most notable thing I can recall is him just syaing that "newbies can change" and that is true, but I don't get why he said that.

I'm not going to rank my reads, but these are where people stand currently. If I was King for toDay, I would lynch one of Generic/Orbo/Maven (order doesn't matter). Generic because he has all the signs of a good D1 lynch with a great opportunity to flip scum. The other two because I do not like the vibes they are sending off currently.
Why would you include me on that list, but not Koopa when you just mentioned how little he'd posted?

I don't wanna get too into this, because I now understand the issue with discussing who the kingmaker might be, but

1. That is the reason. I figured Koopa was new, so he wouldn't really know the capabilities of the other players very well. On top of that, he wouldn't have any reference point for how the other players usually act, so they might be tougher to read for him.

2. The logic I used was more based around the question who would pick Spak than who would Koopa pick. Upon thinking about it more, there are plenty of players who would want to pick you, either because they think you'd make a good D1 king, or because they wanna cover their tracks as the kingmaker.

3. Okay, I just wanna begin by saying, I don't think that actually makes you a worse player than me or anything. You were super busy during that game, and didn't have time to focus on it. If you were a worse scum player though, that could be a good reason to pick you, because you'd be easier to read. It wouldn't make you a bad king at all.

this whole koopa thing was a big mistake of mine though, and i'm not trying to say it was good play at all. I'm just explaining my thought process.
I honestly don't believe this at all and feel like Zalak made it up on the spot

okay so I realize I never actually responded to this. I get where you're coming from, but I kind of disagree. first of all, if you look at it, he went after both of us, he just picked maven as the #1 most scummy. his reasoning for picking Maven was cuz Maven was supposedly strawmaning it up, which is a pretty valid interpretation of that exchange. i'm not saying he was intentionally strawmaning, and i'm not saying he wasn't, but it would be pretty easy for a third party to come in and say, "man, I don't like Zalak, but LOOK! is this a STRAWMAN FROM MAVEN?" and it wouldn't look that bad for the third party, because honest or not, maven made a pretty big misinterpretation of my idea. clearly, it didn't work out too well for Generic, but i could understand the thinking behind such a play. also, people may have agreed with Maven about how bad and POTENTIALLY SCUMMY my idea is, but no one was jumping in and saying "alright, Zalak is probably scum because of this".
What?

It wasn't really much of an argument between Maven and me though. I feel like everyone is trying to turn this into a Zalak vs Maven fight fest. I love fighting, but that's not something I wanna be a part of right now. Also, I'm with Maven in the sense that Generic's actions don't seem to be guided by truth. Like, ever since his post about J and I fighting, he's been throwing out some posts that I really do not see the logic behind.
#HBC | J #HBC | J
what is that you like about Spak??
alright, well if you'll go back and look, he pretty clearly tried to put both Maven and me in hot water, based on, in my opinion, false reasoning.
This meaning generic operating with false logic. If Generic is intentionally not playing truthfully, and trying to twist things, I would guess that Generic tried to put Maven in hot water because he thought it would be easy. Probably because everyone was posting opinions about the interaction between me and mav at the time, and it was kinda the hot topic.
LIKE, IF HE WAS INTENTIONALLY BEING SNEAKY V.S HIM NOT PAYING ATTENTION

But now you're saying you understand what he was going on, and that it was based on truth?

Ok there wasn't much

That's who I was mentioning. I guess that makes sense. Otherwise, you seem to have either null or scum-reads, could I get any town-leans so far?

Maven89 Maven89 : I've explained my dislike of you has been mainly centralized around your coasty play and you've done almost nothing this game besides well....being here? A lot of other people have made mention of this, but what makes you question the dislike now? In fact, you are probably everyone's 2nd pick for toDay's lynch.
Yeah I still find it odd you'd bring up my slot as the inactivity lynch when I actually have done stuff, I started out with overall discussion about how we should use the king and brought up Zalak's point. Clearly this is very little but I'm very curious why you would want me dead over Orbo/Koopa who have clearly done less?

It's odd because you haven't really responded/nor said anything till I brought up the possibility of you being a compromise lynch which makes me think that you are only posting for self-survival. It's something that makes me scratch my head because why now/why just the hypothetical instead of literally tons of people listing you as #2, but as soon as someone brings you to possibility as a #1 maybe, you come in questioning.
Do you find it scummy?

Right now I have Gheb as town, Spak/Sang as slightly town, I like Sang's contributions but need more, Spak is mainly gut.

I'm curious about J. I had him as town before, but re-reading I didn't like his slot nearly as much. I realized that outside of Generic, J mainly complained about the day, and while he gave reads he never seemed to actually want to get any of them killed outside of "all of them". The first time he seemed to want to actively push for someone, it was me. I also don't agree with him reading Zalak as town, but I can see it.

I've played scum Zalak before, and he came off as the most honest, confused townie I've seen. And he was caught in the end because we didn't look at the gut but just at what he was actually saying and posting and talking about. I believe that should be done here.

I'm fine with a Zalak kill. Generic I actually don't want to kill today since he's not here. J I have as null, and don't believe he should be higher then that in anyone's book.

You are exaggerating my actions a bit. I haven't pushed for your slot. I literally just asked Gheb one question on your slot in a hypothetical situation. If that is considered pushing, I've done that to nearly every slot this game.

D1, I am incredibly passive until I find something to bite onto. However, you've only seen me as scum. I'm mainly complaining because this game is bedridden with inactivty and everyone just following the stuff I pointed out on Generic from 4-5 pgs. The entire Generic push was started by me so I don't get where you are saying that I haven't pushed anyone to die when Generic was pretty much my lovechild this game. (tad homoerotic but you get the expression.) However, I am not dead-set pushing him as of late because:

A.) He is not here
B.) Tunneling one slot is anti-town.
C.) I like re-evaluating my reads due to the possibility of him possibly being a tad anti-town in the beginning.
D.) I'm the most active poster and should take a more back-set, but I am afraid if I did, the game would die out a bit more than it already is.

I'm also wary because one of the most vocal people in this thread is Sang. She is usually a background player that has reads that are 100% correct a majority of the time. The fact that I can remember more of what she said rather than people who have posted like Zalak, Yourself, and Sparky. Gheb and Sang have a low post count, but I remember much more clearly what they feel and express which is why I asked both of them questions in my previous question post. The fact is, Gheb/Sang are deadly players in their own regard which frighten me that I feel the thread is just us 3 and everyone else is literally saying the same thing. Honestly speaking, I am just really perturbed by the events so far. It feels too easy.

I also suggested your name out of the inactivity lynch because you have not given me a reason to be town, are the sole slot that started the conflict in the beginning, and hold connections regardless of flip. If I was truly offering an inactive lynch, it would be one of Generic(case in point) and/or Koopa/Orbo. Your slot has posts that can be examined after flip and I have not really seen anything that I like besides your more recent posts, but I still feel uneasy regarding your slot. Regarding your question about why Koopa wasn't included is because he hadn't posted any content yet. You and Orbo had and I mentioned in the exact post you quoted that I had bad vibes from both your slots. I've also pointed this out prior and being more open with my reads than I probably should be.

I have been incredibly open regarding reads and reasoning. I do not see where you are missing this point especially when my last post that was as largess in size would have been my read's post. However, that's not really what I want to hone in on regarding your slot now that there is a conversation opportunity.

Talk to me about your Zalak scum-read. You had not really explained this in great detail and seems to revolve around meta. You say you see my side of the coin with me viewing him as town, yet you still hold him as a scum-read. Can we talk more about this topic because it would actually be interesting to see this continue ( ~ Gheb ~ ~ Gheb ~ and @SangfroidWarrior I would like your opinions as well considering you also have Zalak as scum or slots to look into). What do you make of Sparky's insistence of a Generic execution as of late?

Zalak is a feel read and I do not see his actions as scummy and get more of a town vibe from his posts. A tad derpy, but I digress. Where do his posts reach mal-intent territory? What exactly about his play reads as scum? I'm asking this from a PoV that does not see that at this stage of the game.

If toDay's lynch comes down to either Generic or Zalak, we seem to actually may be having a more fruitful day for D1 than I originally bit my lip at.

However, I will be completely honest that I am a bit miffed that Generic is posting in my game yet refuses to post in here. He said he could not respond until Sunday, but he can continually post in other threads?

I understand being busy and also that game is farther along than this one, but to say you can't even make a small post is just making me tap my foot in a rapid manner.

Okay, but there's a problem I have with this. J, you listed Sang as someone who had listed Maven as a potential lynch for today, when in reality, she only said she'd like to investigate Maven. Those two are not the same thing. Additionally, I asked you if you had any idea who this mystery person was, but you ignored that part of my question completely. I'm beginning to think you were just grasping at straws in order to stretch the list of people who wanted Maven dead as much as possible. I don't like untruthful play like this, and I feel it is inherently scummy. Maybe you just don't think there's a significant difference between wanting to investigate someone and wanting them dead...
or maybe
you're trying to blame your mistakes on me, because you realize you've messed up....

i've got my eye on you now, J

But now you're saying you understand what he was going on, and that it was based on truth?
That were aspects of what Generic said that I kind of agreed with, but for the most part, I felt like Generic was way off.

I've played scum Zalak before, and he came off as the most honest, confused townie I've seen. And he was caught in the end because we didn't look at the gut but just at what he was actually saying and posting and talking about. I believe that should be done here.
[/QUOTE]
I see where you're coming from, but have you ever actually seen my play WELL as town? I usually start screwing up somewhere. I MEAN, I still haven't won a game of mafia to this day. I might be good at faking it too, but the actual town Zalak makes mistakes.

I honestly don't believe this at all and feel like Zalak made it up on the spot
idk what to tell ya man. I jumped to conclusions. I get that you're worried, but what motivation would I have to do and say all that as scum??? what would throwing Koopa out there as a town read do for an assassin Zalak??? I guess I probably can't change the way you feel about that post, but it was a legit major goof up by me.

Or I understand how Sang speaks because we have been best friends for 8-9 years at this point. That could help understand why I know that she means that Maven is on her lynch line.

That's just a thing. And you are really stretching the semantics of what one says.

Also I haven't been able to find out who else said regarding Maven but I'll figure it out. I'm feeling it was Gheb, but maybe he just said he was useless so far.

I'm not grasping at straws and what you saw wasn't scummy and just...well you.

Alright.


Oh, look. Townie things.



Tako logic: I'm confirmed town, listen to me. Here we have mod confirmed town, saying what...?



This is bad and gives us more information. It's a guessing game of "am I alive because doc fear or because rake is town?" Because Rake is town.





Yeah.



Eyup



Oh look confirmed town doing things



mhm.

Now, I'm going to tackle that really big push on Rake in its own post. If anything involving Rake and his scumminess happened outside of that, bring it to my attention.
However, I will be completely honest that I am a bit miffed that Generic is posting in my game yet refuses to post in here. He said he could not respond until Sunday, but he can continually post in other threads?

I have time to make a small post here, but not to read it. I'm prioritizing your game over this one because I'm up-to-date. Sorry.

@SangfroidWarrior

Do you think there is any merit to my case?

Also, there is one problem with that statement. I'm about to get pretty phoenix wright.
You can't be shocked that you are up for a lynch considering Sparky, Zalak, Myself, Sang, and I think one other person have said you are a possibility for a lynch.

This is an odd interaction...
You include Sang as evidence for why Maven shouldn't be at all surprised that he is up for a lynch. Maven has not been best friends with Sang for 8-9 years, and what matters is whether or not Maven should have registered that as meaning he was on her lynch line.

I'm not grasping at straws and what you saw wasn't scummy and just...well you.
I'm not saying I'm 100% sold on J being scum, but I want to say this is suspiciously similar to the way you acted towards me last game.

Last game, I figured out J was a werewolf very early on. He spent most of his interactions with me trying to belittle me, and take away my voice, and that's how he ended up winning the game. In reality, I was 100% right about J. I'm not saying that makes me right about J, but I am saying this looks very very very similar to the strategy he used to win last game.

HOWEVER

#HBC | J #HBC | J

If you're just trying to diss me because you think I need to be dissed

I EXPECT A CHANGE IN ATTITUDE.

Whoa, hold the phone there. You are spouting a lot of things that are just untrue.

I am not dissing you at all as a person, that's a form of bullying and I do not stand for that so stop saying I do such things because this is the second game in a row you try and tarnish my character. I did not beat you last game through "belittling you" and "taking away your voice". That is just incorrect and I am not making this a Gheb Mini 2.0 and nipping this here.

You are way too excitable when if you read closely, I said those named had Maven as a possibility. This includes Sang on wanting to investigate Maven since she clearly stated his name above others and made a point to say that she would like to look at him. I also said "I think one more" which means I am not sure. If I was sure, I would have named a name.

Not every word-slip is a "Phoenix Wright" moment and is actually just human error. That's what happens in life.

There's a bit of a different implication there though. Generally, when someone says they'd like to look at someone, that means they're unsure of them. However, when someone lists someone as a possible lynch, that usually means they're straight up ready to go ahead with that lynch if it's convenient. I dunno about Maven, but I get two completely different meanings from the two statements.

Not every word-slip is a "Phoenix Wright" moment and is actually just human error. That's what happens in life.
So was this an error of yours, or is it just Maven and I failing to interpret Sang's post correctly? I kinda feel like you're giving me mixed messages.

I'm probably making your actions seem a lot harsher than they were, but it seemed to me like a lot of your play regarding me in that game revolved around convincing the town I had no idea what I was doing. That on top of sneakily bending truths, and later into the game, directly opposing my accusations, but it just seems similar. Sorry, I'm not trying to say you're a bad person, or that you were being mean, I'm just trying to say they way you're acting now reminds me of the way you acted in the last game.

I'm also making it seem like I played way better than I did :p Sorry yeah, the way I worded that was kind of off. The way I worded that made it sound like you were only able to win by getting the town to see me as a noob, which isn't actually what happened.

And that's not an excuse, more like an explanation for the things I've said. I've exaggerated things that happened in that game way out of proportions, and it's not cool.

Still not liking Zalak's play one bit. His whole point on the J / Sang / "who read Maven as scum" issue is extremely nit-picky. Especially since a lot of people [including myself] can be a bit vague about whom they think is scum or whether they just want somebody lynched for other purposes. When Sang says that she wants somebody investigated she doesn't do it for fun but because she has a legitimate suspicion. It's not a huge reach to conclude that Maven't slot would be at least somewhere in her extended execution pool.

As for my opinion on Maven, I don't think it'd be a good idea to lynch him. Even with how little he posted so far his #332 and #336 show that he has some solid insight. I agree with him on Zalak, I agree with him on Generic and I can see why he's a bit confused about J's play considering the only recent experience he has with him is his scumplay from Revival of dGames. Of course, I can only answer that way now because Maven happened to post between when J asked me how I feel about Maven and now. But yeah, as of now I'd value his insight too highly to think about lynching him. Neither do I see a reason to read him as scum nor does the inactivity-argument apply too him.

If I had to pick somebody other than Zalak I'd go with either Koops or Orbo at this point. The former still hasn't done **** so far and the latter has posted little content and his stances look pretty safe.

Is it really gonna come down to this? Let's at least hear some ideas where Generic's flip is gonna lead us. I think the people who just want to execute him for whatever reason owe us that much.

This point still stands btw. When I look at peoples' performances in this game I think we're far enough into the Day to conclude that Generic - despite not even posting right now - has done more to help the game move forward than other slots. His Maven vs Zalak analysis, while probably faulty, is probably the one thing that gave us more to work with than anything else. And like I said before, I doubt that it's a point scum!Generic would make.

Just want you to let that sink in for a moment. If you wanna lynch a player based on inactivity/lack of input then there's no way that Generic should be executed before Koops tbh.

#HBC | J #HBC | J I'm in a rush right now, so just a quick post, but about my Zalak read:I'm not scum reading him due to meta, but I'm not town reading him due to meta. I 100% see how he comes off as honest and new, asking questions all the time, and seems pretty genuine. But based on Meta I know he can do that as scum. So there's no town points for him just for seeming confused. Has he done anything to be pro-town?

But more to the point, you say you don't see the mal-intent. But what has Zalak done this game but attempt to avoid the execute and fan the flames? There's no voting, there's no bandwagons or momentum to build. The only thing a scum could do in this scenario is try to avoid being executed himself while trying to make everyone else look bad in the hopes they're executed.

This is all that Zalak has done the entire game. Is there a bandwagon or push he hasn't supported? Does any of his reasons for supporting them make sense? Is it consistent? Is he really trying to scum hunt, or is he just hoping to defend himself from his execute (he already told us he was appealing to spak) and trying to push everyone else down the toiler?

Hey guys, I'm really sorry to say this, but I'm going to try to replace out of both games I'm in.
At the time I thought I could handle two games, but college has definitely proven that because you're free for one day does not mean you'll be free the next. I can't really handle one at the moment because of midterms.

I wish you the best of luck on your midterms.

Yeah, it looks like we may have a perma-AFK from Koops whereas Generic can respond on Sunday, so if they don't replaced by the end of today, I'll kill Koops.
