Anyway I do think Horkos is probably town. I dont think a mafia jailor would react so negatively and openly toward me trying to render them useless.
Something about reading Superjack through out day 1 ping me as town though i havent pinpointed where.
Still figuring out if Helz is powerwolfing or being a town leader
Phraze is someone I would be down to vote today. I did not like their posts.
A lot of people are blending in like jmw, aeroyi, gikkle, auwt. I think they dont really deserve to be lynched day 1, as day 2 would probably make them more readable and we can lynch them then.
I don't believe in your spirits... If you are so convinced that I'm scum, why arent you voting me?
I'm not sheeping Helz on the PoD read... PoD is one of few players here that I've played with and I'm actually trying to read him.
Fyi Helz is not a strong town read for me. As it says in my post where I asked him about the scum slip. Which you quoted.
Gonna ISO Phraze and I'll probably decide on my stance on him
Either SJ is pocketting POD or it's the other way around.
Only time shall tell us.
And yes, if you ask me, I do believe we've a scum among those two.
Apart from that, I also believe that at least 1 scum is in the jmw-MM-Phraze pool.
I think it was about 7-8 years ago, the game was called "O", I was the town Sheriff and you were mafia, you fake claimed Sheriff and got me lynched, you said you were the real Sheriff and you checked me and found I was scum. So I was lynched and was a bit salty, which is probably why I still remember it
Spoiler : ISO :
This is someone who is not really trying at all this game. A lot of their posts feel like theyre in RVS stage and is trying to stay there.
They voted Helz and just left, saying they wont be back.
They got defensive when MM push him and called him "tryhard".
I'm okay yeeting this slot but meh nothing about this guy scream scum either.
The biggest thing I noted on them was the lack of recognizing roles are known. I fully expect Mafia players to have had conversations on that. For them to understand that, WIFOM the assumptions town would make and intentionally fake ignorance would be a pretty calculating play that does not match the effort they have put into D1 so I find it unlikely.
This view does have the bad bit of me assuming both that Mafia are active / discussing mechanics and that Phraze would be actively participating in that chat but its largely why moved away from voting them.

Can you expand on that? Sounds like your saying all players are either town leans or neutral for you and your most towny neutrals are ones I have trouble seeing a tenable argument for. You have not said much this game at all and it would be good to understand your thoughts. Because of your role we basically have to sort you in day chat. Night actions are just not even an option.

Well being fair only MM is my town lean. The rest is an evaluation between their lynch value and behavior.
It would really be helpful to understand why you think what you think instead of just flat stances that are not clearly said.
I am under the assumption now that your reads are something like:
Town:
Auwt
Neutral:
Ewianking
The Lawyer
Horkos
Gikkle Phraze
Jmw
Scum:
Superjack
Powerofdeath
Marshmallow Marshall
Can you explain why you find POD, SJ, and MM so scummy?

I will also say its of note that there is not an effort to build a counter train to Phraze. With 1 vote scattered all over the place it would take very very little effort to shift focus. I would expect the mafia team of 4 players to use that tiny bit of effort to shift if Phraze is Mafia.
I will also bring up @SuperJack although the vote counter does not reflect it your technically at 2 votes and tied with Phraze.
Duno if I have ever seen a game without even self preservation like this.

don't have much time to play/flesh out my reads before EoD but some thoughts (i already spent more time on this than i should have despite it's brevity, i gotta go like... now)
liked #187 by MM, felt like it came from a town perspective inasmuch as MM justified liking Helz's post by saying "they got my perspective right", which overall just gives me the impression of a town!MM having an actual internal perspective & feeling genuinely gratified to see it being presented properly. Also just generally like how MM's been pressuring The Lawyer.
ewian and jmw i think I'll be able to read better given time, but ewian giving me any town points without saying his standard "gikkle is a rat" sets off alarm bells, and jmw i have no clue
Tauntshaman is inactive
aeoryi/phraze/superjack occupy similar spots of "has posted but has stayed under the radar".
auwt acting like a lone wolf/living in his own world focused on his own conclusions is iirc scum indicative for him, but then again my meta is super old so not 100% sure. But I recall him as town being more engaged in conversation rather than just saying his conclusions.
somewhat agree w/ PoD that Horkos' response to their role being invalidated is >rand townie? Although since they're new not like, super duper townie since I could totally see a newer scum player reacting like that.
on the topic of PoD they feel a bit different this game than I remember them from the past? Feels more serious/calculated than I remember. Idk. Conversely I find him blocking off the jailor route immediately every so slightly >rand townie since I feel like mafia may want to keep the option of leaving it to the jailor open (at least until they ascertain whether horkos is someone they can manipulate or not)
liked Lawyer's paranoia/seeming inability to read Helz, I know I said I liked MM's push here but I don't actually agree with it lol.

Helz can you make a case on ewianking?
And deservingly so most of the time
Anyways
I find it funny that Helz’s entire reason on me is you can iso me in 4 posts , :skull:
Did a quick skim jmw feels lacking
I would have expected a push on me at some point after making a big deal of wanting to see more from me.
I write lore
It very much does. You could immediately make one of a large portion of the players the top train. Its a question of what you want to do with that power.
I think they are so spread out because the town has not built a decent case on anyone and the scum is complacently happy letting the clock run down with the situation as it is. We legit only have 8 players even bothering to vote.
Also brings up my lizard brain questioning if Mafia Jailor could be a motivation in not seeing a lynch.

Jmw/ helz can see a pair here
Gikkle probably not paired with marsh
Marsh/helz not w/w
4 rhombus and due to general vibe of thread I want to predict 1-2 scums in inactivity and definitely one scum posted by now.

Oh great lol just noticed smth lmao

I apologize for posting like this. Don’t have the time to deal with mobile bullshit and the server is doing some really stupid shit again

(Same reply as above but not stupid. If anyone else is having server issues it seems running a proxi deals with it. Probably something related to the net neutrality bullshit they crammed down Americas throat)
Sure
Its not just that. Mechanically your role is of massive value to the mafia. As town you could very easily be a determent. Something like 8 years ago I made an effort to quantify quite a few things in Mafia to consider balance in function and one finding was Vigs are objectively a net negative for town. (That is to say, if you want to increase the odds of mafia winning putting a Vig in the game for town on average helps that happen)
That said- Your role is between a HUGE benefit to the Mafia or a coin toss with bad odds of being great for the town. Low risk high reward in the loss of your PR.
Then I look at the 4 posts. I see soft stances that feel bendy buddying up to vocal town. I do not see scum hunting or pushing to break RVS or generally towny behavior. Even now you seem more survival focused than building a case making vague statements.
So you tell me. Why should anyone town read you? Who do you think is the Mafia?
I am curious if you even feel there is a reason you should be townread as opposed to pushing "I did not quite catch you correctly" Your basically the bottom of my soft POE and low risk high reward.

Can a Jailed Rhombus use the factional kill?
Can a Role Blocked Rhombus use the factional kill?
Would a jailed player be given protection/immunity from being killed?
Can a Jailed player be Bus Driven? If a Jailed player is Bus Driven would attacks or jailed immunity swap Locations?

@Horkos Best of luck. Please be able to justify why you did what you did. You will be held accountable and a soft reason for killing a player that flipped town will not go over well.

Well, now knowing we need 7 votes to lynch someone this will be tough, need everyone to be on same page today.

Post #211
I don't like how Helz is defending Phraze in his reads. Saying that Phraze didn't know that roles were outed and therefore shouldnt be lynched yet. Also tries to clear him for mechanical reasons. This looks like Helz is a power wolf trying to clear his teammate.
Phraze #75 : shows up D1, votes SuperJack but then votes Helz and leaves his vote there. Weird. This is probably him trying to distance from Helz.
#166 MM voted Phraze. I think MM had a good feeling about Phraze. That is probably one of the reasons why MM is dead now.

#175 Helz townreads Aeroyi for no reason at all. Says he doesnt want to waste a lynch on him. Suspicios, especially when we consider the fact that Helz has no problem with lynching me because of my low activity and contribution. I admit that my low activity and contribution D1 probably doesnt make me look good, but Phraze isn't any better than me in this respect, so I see defending Phraze while wanting to lynch me as hypocritical.
