This coming right after MMT starts questioning them too, now that I think about it. i will say it is strange to me to specify second game, i probably would have said she was new w/o being particular.

And most of the talk about Samurai being Tolly's first game happened in scumdoc/deadchat, which I don't think Lando ever joined. Yes, you can look her up in votefinder, but that seems like a supremely strange thing to do. Lando's explanations seem wishy-washy to me. The simplest explanation is that he's communicating OOT with someone who mentioned it. As I said, I'm willing to let it slide until he flips, but if he DOES flip scum, it gives us a clue to who might be one of his scumbros.

Tolly can't have anything to say that's damning. I'm town, so a N0 cop claim would quickly be revealed as a terrible scum gambit as soon as I flip. She can't have seen me do anything N0, since I have no N0 action. She can claim that I'm playing the same way here as I did the last game (where we were scum together) but that's a meta argument and also wrong.

sentimental snail posted:I'm not convinced of her being town by any means, but this isn't a tell indicative of mmt's alignment It's more that "MMT is making bad cases" shouldn't be indicative of a scum alignment to AA. Though I'll admit that's my own personal feelings on the matter. MMT pushing hard early and being moderately tunnely is associated with town MMT in my mind. She's more quiet/cautious as scum (as are most players).

Atomic Soda posted:i understand this perspective but its also from your point of view if you see mine. I think it doesn't look good for Tolly. For example, last game Moat pushed MMT without really getting into any casing. His cageyness was due to him being the cop and having a result on her. That's simply not a possibility in this case, and if she's trying to emulate that cageyness in the hopes that other players will jump on it thinking she has a result, well, that's bad.

Quidthulhu posted:I don't like this post. KB hasn't actually explained why he voted MMT and my initial thought was "what's his case, exactly?" Opop trying to piggy back off of something that doesn't exist is weird. I've started re-reading the thread, and this is similar to where I landed so far. Except instead of voting RF because of piggy-backing, I find KB more suspect for being possibly the single person to have contributed the least so far (not quite the lowest post-count, but other people with similar posts have all said at least slightly more of substance). I understand that a piggy-back vote off of weak reasoning is probably more suspect to most mafia players around these parts, but I find KB's initial vote with weak reasoning sufficiently suspect that, combined with his lack of activity, it beats RF's suspect...ness. ##vote King Burgundy Unrelated: this is an instance where I wouldn't know whether I can just use KB instead of their full name. Is there a place where I can see allowed pseudonyms? Also, is it important that a vote be bolded?

bold and format your votes the same way each time known aliases can be viewed by going to the player's profile on votefinder.org (https://votefinder.org/player/king-burgundy), accessible via the players tab of each game.

Sweet jesus there's been a lot going on. I'm side-eyeing that Dancer vote but he's so new it's probably just newbie jitters. I'm surprised so many people are calling out MMT for her town game so far cause she's looking more like absent scum to me right now, similar to the last game we played together where she was a badlady who came in with solid posting in large chunks when she needed to. I'm not CONVINCED of it yet because weekend, but I don't think "MMT is totally town" is where I would put her on my list yet. Is Tully new? I'm losing track of who's played how many games. I actually am more suspicious of people who are hook line & sinker going "yep I agree with Tully" on a ~*~mystery case~*~ that, frankly, holds zero water for me even if he is dancing around night action results. Other than that I...don't have a lot of strong opinions. RF is looking best in terms of faking content, so my vote's gonna stay on him.

Tobbs Gnawed posted:If Lando flips scum it's very likely someone who was very familiar with the Samurai game shared that it was Tolly's first game. You are super paranoid and to be honest this line of thought is starting to get under my skin. I've been reading Mafia games on SA for the last 3 months or so, including at work on breaks, after having taken something like a 7 year hiatus from doing so. I checked on votefinder for that. Hint: I'm considered a spectator instead of a player in that first game because I had to sub out. Simply put, you should consider not questioning people's knowledge when they give you actual evidence, especially a new player. Especially an active new player who has no intention of lurking, because if you make the game unfun to play they might not play anymore. I don't even care if you want to vote me, but this line of reasoning stinks. If I've learned one thing I should try to leave people's names out of it when I think someone else is making a stupid play, but being called out for knowing what I actually know because I've been following this community and wanted to be a part of it is some real poo poo. It's especially stupid because there's literally no way I can refute it. I guess let this be a warning to future lurkers turn players: Make sure to comment in threads postgame or the general mafia discussion or knowing who some people are will be suspect. Or just keep your mouth shut and lurk. But I'd rather

I was in the middle of reading the thread and was already planning on voting mmt when I saw King Burgundy posted:Don't think AA is scum. That mirrored my own thoughts, as I felt AA was town and MMT was pushin a false narrative, so I agreed with both ideas he was presenting. I could have fleshed it out better but that’s why I tried to give some context in my own post and not just go “same”

For whatever my saying this might be worth: I absolutely did not want to take attention from studying RF. I would ever be willing to vote for them if the deadline is nearing. I do think KB also might deserve more attention of some sort (with the understanding that there is not a lot of content you could look at). But I guess we can change that. Hey KB, if you're reading this, please try to present a better case, and/or vote for someone else.

I'm annoyed that the argument is even being pressed, and even more annoyed that following Mafia games on SA is now somehow considered 'stalkery behavior'.

I'm getting annoyed enough that I'm now starting to wonder if that's the entire point of this line of thinking, to piss me off and distract me.

I think it's just behavior that many of us have not done / didn't have the opportunity to do or whatever, so it's coming off as "odd." That doesn't necessarily mean "scum" though and we forget that a lot around here I'm sorry it's irritating you, Lando, and I have been there. I would encourage you to step back until you're not annoyed any more and come at stuff with fresh eyes again. Like I said, I believe you are trying in earnest and got caught up in what is essentially a dumb "gotcha," and you can counteract that by ignoring it and doing some good case work. You can do it!

If you feel scum are driving this narrative why not pursue it further? I think it has derailed a portion of the thread and has created a big question for this first day. I've already voiced my concern regarding that line of casing and I think it is something cannot be proved without flips or results. ##unvote

Lando131 posted:I mentioned this in one of my earlier replies but I've read most of the Mafia games recently. The main exception is Shine because I didn't want to deal with reading multiple threads for a single game. Lando131 posted:That's fair because she said she was new and this is the second game I've seen her in. I assumed this was her second game on SA but I suppose she could have played another one I wasn't aware of. That said she came out firing in Westworld. The core of my point to DKG was that it seemed early in the game to get suspicious on the ground of no content, with a bit of extra skepticism because it targeted a relatively new player. Lando131 posted:You are super paranoid and to be honest this line of thought is starting to get under my skin.

Did you just assume it was her second game? Did you check votefinder? I had already backed off and wasn't voting you, so this really seems like a disproportionate response. I literally said, multiple times, that if you flip scum I'll use that info to find your scumbros. If you're town it shouldn't matter at all.
