Seems unlikely that both are scum. However, I have noticed that alasdair refuses to play along with keanes mason claim. This was his first non-jokephase post from yesterday.

Four more votes, but I don't think Anon is a fruit.

The push on Anon feels stalled. I'm not sure there are any scum on him right now. The players on him I don't think are dumb enough to all hop on.

Yami's posting is scummy for a veteran mafia player. My point being I think Yami's mafia naivete looks scummy but perhaps not so much in the light of Yami's experience (or lack thereof).

You know, I have to say, the wording of this is a bit weird considering you're voting me right now. Not saying you're trying to bandwagon me, but... It comes over weird to me :V

Either way, I think we should lunch AN at this point. A lot of the content has been centered around them, they have not provided much (if any) real content themselves - but were defended by both Keane and b-minus. I remember reading where that scum likes having their teammates deflect for them over going hard on their own defense, and really, neither of these defenses were really all that convincing to me. Keanes defense was as close to a textbook scum deflection as you can get, while b-minus only posted "I'm suspicious on the people voting you", except... never explaining why.

Lunching AN gives us information about both these players, epecially Keane.

SalTheBard posted:

That is correct. I have a bunch of adjacent but not entirely fitting experience because I played a lot of Throne of Lies, which is a videogamified mafia (16 people, a cult+nightkill scum team with a serial killer is the base setup here). As such I know most of the basics, and due to reading a bunch of older games, I have a general idea of how to play forum mafia.

According to people in the first game I've played, this makes it pretty jarring, since I seem a lot more experienced in forum mafia than I really am. I have some ideas what to look for, but I am really used to what is essentially night action bingo (examples for this are stuff like when I went ham on Sal last game due to them being roadblocked and there being only one night kill, since I was used to two).

I don't have much faith in my cases, but I am trying to improve on them. Hence me making them a lot of the time.

I carry Alasdair around in a small basket on my chest and I haven't seen him try to hide his phone, which he usually does if he's trying to hide something so he's effectively mod confirmed.

Uhm no. My point is, that both of them are likely evil, as in my mind Keane is covering for his scum buddy, AN. I am advocating lunching BOTH of them. AN has a bunch of traction already, so I remained on them. On top of that, lynching AN makes more sense - since Keane could be a false positive scum ping, due to me lacking meta knowledge.

As such, I want to lynch AN first, see if AN is scum, and if they are I would advocate lunching Keane.

In looking at the other votes on AN and the subsequent discussion, I think Alasdair looks the worst for committing and then easing back into shitposting. I would vote him today.

Also, AN has been avoiding the thread, maybe to prevent digging a hole, or hoping people move on to other targets. This isn't necessarily scummy and might just be self-preservation, but I'd like to hear some reads from her now that there is a good amount of real content.

If you're not sure if Anon is town or not? That's feels a bit odd to me.
