I guess your conclusions rest on if you think madman would name scum, and then if he would bus or play it safe. I don't think he particularly had a set plan, if that jimson style defense is any indication

Disagree, I showed the waffling he was doing on the jimson lynch based solely on the enabler thing. He was setting up his own defense keeping it all in-line

Wait

If there's a ninja and a jailer, it's in scum's interest for the jailer not to act. The tracker is functionally useless at that point.

Yeah, if there is a ninja then it's all up in the air again. On the one hand, ninja as a counter to tracker forces us to actually play mafia rather than rely on night actions, which is a thing Ecco likes. On the other, that creates too really (imo) imbalanced scum teams if the 3/3 assumption is right, which I dont know if I believe since in my experience Ecco cares about balance.

A thinker, for sure.

Well based on the flips we have had:

- a mafia godfather (TNL)
- a mafia role cop/doc enabler (jimson)
- a mafia goon (glowku)

We have also had:

-a ursuper doc/cop enabler flip (TMM)

That leads me to believe that we still have a ursuper goon and usurper godmother out there. The only usurper we have uncovered was tmm.

My thoughts were to comb his stuff and post what I found interesting and maybe we could all take it apart and figure out the remaining scum.

I noted what I thought was interesting. Feel free to point out anything else that you think would be useful or you can just ignore it all.

Based on what I have seen I am suspicious of TT and chaoslord. I voted TT because of gut feel from their posting today combined with the re read.

good morning all.

taste, I was wondering who would be the first to run a soft case against me, just like tmm did before pod caught his lying rear end. chaos, i reckon scum teams are letting me run around because of several possible reasons:

- i am new and unsure of the game, and therefore less likely to add value (kinda true tbh)
- i have an heir who might give them more trouble than i have (devil you know)
- due to my newness and lack of results so far, they coudl try, and have been trying, to get my lynched during the day. if my heir had been hit during the night this would mean no more tracking

on are we assuming onl 1 kill a night now (i was). if so i can let ppl know who my heir is in advance if this is useful.

Tremendous Taste posted:

With respect, I'm not going to pay a whole lot of attention to your results even if I conclude you to be town (which is far from a given, seeing as your results are super convenient for scum) as we've seen passive scum flip already.

I'd like to hear what you think about people outside of your claims though. I'm open to the possibility of you just being really unlucky. In a position where you're town though I think it's probably likely that you tracked said passive scum at some point

hm what do you mean by people outside of my claim. i said in an earlier post that pmach i was most suspicious of, though her jailing earlier in the game has made me revise this. currently i am most suss of you taste.

i am really unlucky with the tracking it is true ecco even sent me a comforting postscript in the last pm :/

to whoever asked, my pm doesn't say anything about tracking the same person 2 times in a row, but obv I haven't tested it.

Pod said that they couldn't get into PMach's room therefore their action failed, and BK said they were knocked out in their room or something like that and therefore their action failed. There is a jailer or a roleblocker out there. The distinction is important because a jailer probably clears PMach whereas a roleblocker doesnt. The flavor seems to support jailer.

What other role could give that flavor for pmach? We're running out of hypothetical scum

Yeah but getting knocked out and getting locked out are two huge flavor differences which I think matter in this game

Well, that's kind of my point. Theoretically, it could just be a roleblocker that hit Pod and then BK, but the flavor supports it being a jailer.

Yes, I was interested on who he doesn't mention. He pushes dongs, pod, kash pretty consistently.

He barely mentions pmach (calls out once then doesn't include in lumpen), TremTa (other than to acknowledge their lurking and then push for merk), and then his case on you which comes out of nowhere with more compelling lynches on the table (bk or pod or jimson).

He also mentions AS and meinberg as well but once again in an offhand and unsure manner.

please continue playing mafia in a world where no one wants to play mafia and dont do the league 3 mafia but this type of mafia

Okay, I wouldn't normally claim with this role on D3, but I'm going to claim due to the added benefit ecco gave me this game.

I'm a cop. I'm the estate footman, a house servant, and though the flavor is vague I seem to be a personal slave to the master of the estate. Because I'm educated, I'm intelligent enough to discern people's true intentions.

N1 I investigated Podima and got NOT TOWN. Tried to get them lynched naturally but it didn't happen. Wasn't sure if I was a real cop though too because lol eccogame, but N2 I investigated TMM and got TOWN. I believe the results.

The reason I'm claiming is because I also have a second utility where I can give my role power to someone else if I die by naming someone my heir. So barring some unanticipated ecco weirdness, or my own inability to know who is town, we should be good.

His work is predicated on the idea that as' results are 1) true and 2) completely accurate in a game with role fuckery which is not a series of assumptions a town player makes at this stage
