I kinda get the logic why Stickup might be maf but I don't see why a maf would do something so risky, bringing themselves attention like this. I'm more suspicious of people who are lurking right now, in my opinion, aka AR, AR2, AA, HK etc.

I do not like this post

Also I think tobbs is scum

In addition to imgay, these users have low post counts here.

Absurd Revolver promises to become more active soon.
Anomalous Amalgam commented once on Mr F's reveal and that's about it.
Harold Krell hasn't said anything.
Jonathan Fisk hasn't really said anything, but has voted without justification.
peramene hasn't said anything.

I think the reason we've been actively discussing imgay instead of any of these others is because of their participation in other games. Is that right?

The options for Mr. F, in likelihood of their happening:

1. Mags being bored town and claiming a fake role to get crap going
2. Mags being bored town and claiming his actual role
3. Mags being bored scum and pulling a gambit that will get him dunked D2.

Of the three I find 1 or 2 waaaay more likely

Tobbs; sweet, sweet Tobbs.

D1 no reads. Imgay is a non factor in most games I play. I figure why not, push for his lynch without much else to go on either way town wins imo. Also it would be interesting to see how people react to it.

If people react scummy, I shall respond accordingly (I say to myself in secret words that only I can hear)

And here we are

Quid is seeing what I was seeing, I'm not sure if that's good or bad time will tell

I still think one or more of the lurkers are maf, to be honest. Everyone else in suspicion isn't pinging me that hard, but admittedly I'm also very bad at scum reading.

- Poor framing (stick-up has played one game with imgay, I have played many this makes a difference)

Maybe.
The scum.
Is you.

But seriously this is a strange as hell post to make in a game with an Anti-lurking mechanic.
If they keep lurking they get free lynched.

This is more redirecting attention away from people making reads and pushing for a lurker lynch.
No sir I don't like it.

There's anti-lurking rules? I am slow.

Well then, I still can't find suspicious so that doesn't really change much for me, unfortunately. I understand why I seemed scummy too but I don't want to run the risks of scum lurking to a win.

Eh, I'm leaning scum on you, moat, for the same reason I'm voting stickup.

I thought you were joking with the imgay stuff but you're sticking with your cross-game meta reasons for wanting him lynched regardless of alignment.

I dunno chores I am pretty careless sometimes but when the mod tells me not to do a thing sometimes I consider not doing that thing.

As for Krell and imgay like 99% of the time imgay fakes a self day vig so if we're lynching one of the two it would probably be krell.

This right off the bat is bugging me, it's meta talk so early in a game. Also it's tobbs.

Tobbs Gnawed posted:

Chores playing his town game dunno where he's getting his picks but he does like his gambits.

Tobbs Gnawed posted:

As much as it rubs me the wrong way, I have to agree with Podima. I can't see Mr. F's claim as a scum gambit. It was an unnecessary distraction, sure, but a vote for Mr. F post-jokephase is decidedly scummy. Barring some evidence proving he's lying, the risk of losing an entire day phase is really bad.

##vote Infinitum

gently caress your hedging too.

Tobbs Gnawed posted:

good catch

There's a reason for it, although I hope I don't have to give it up

Secrecy like this is super scummy. Don't hint at things unless you're willing to deal with the consequences.

Tobbs Gnawed posted:

Read stickup, has no read on any player but throws a vote on imgay not really caring about his alignment, but rather due to a meta read based on his play across games.

Like I said, he is Australian so we shouldn't turbo if others think it's a good case, but this is where my vote is going.

##vote stickup

Hedging. Again.

Tobbs Gnawed posted:

Dude, I know you really, really like to believe that you're right once you have an idea. I get it.

But I don't want to lynch town. There are people like infinitum who recklessly cast lovely votes and you can say yeah, that was a scummy vote.

Stickup wasn't there yet. But, after people telling him why his idea was bad, he still wants imgay dead for all the wrong reasons. He's scum, Quid.

This is bad D1 play. It's not likely we're going to lynch anything but town.

There's obviously more, but for now ##vote tobbs

I'm leaning scum on him merely because the flow of conversation between you three had him coming out looking the worst.

For the record, here's what Quid is seeing.

Quidthulhu posted:

Oh I definitely think he's still scum. I think you hosed up a light bus.

Moat skipped voting stickup and went straight to voting me. Yeah, I made a leap in logic in assuming the lack of vote translated to a lack of suspicion, (not to mention the fact that Moat was pushing imgay for lynch) but now we have:

Moatillata posted:

-Putting words in my mouth (I have never said stick-up isn't scum, I am leaning neutral on him rn)

What, exactly, is Moat's case? He says he's "seeing what Quid's seeing" and then contradicts himself by saying he's neutral on stickup.

What I'm seeing is Moat pushing a bus on imgay, stickup supporting Moat, and when stickup starts to feel some pressure and Quid builds a case on me, Moat jumps on it without really understanding what's happening.
