I don't think these posts are bread crumbing anything. I never know what to do in these situations, we don't get much info if we jump on Barney, but just barely skating by tends to let scum hide till late game.

 

[Barney]

hmmmm

This interaction between Barney and Zombie......seems a bit off.....and Barney wants to be lunched?

is this breadcrumbing to a lunch bomb? But what would zombie produce to be alive on day 2?

If this is not forced or anything then

I'm not a bomb, it's pretty safe to vote me out. I don't want to be voted out either.

 

[Barney]

I think Dracula asked me a question before, let me find it.

 

[Rey]

Smells like lunch bomb to me

 

[Barney]

Which posts made you feel this way on all three of them?

Here it is.

Prisoner feels like its trying to build a narrative for the vote he wants to give, in particular the second vote thing, but eh, I don't feel that strong about it, just a hmm moment.

Kool-Aid has few posts, but I like them,

after reading everything i came to the conclusion that i am extremely unsure who i will vote for.
I won't be able to push anyone uter the bus now. give me some more time.

uter the bus in particular is a phrase that ust wins me over.

Hussein had a similar reaction to me with the second vote thing, but really is the use of the shocked pikachu that reads relaxed yet engaged, I like that, I really do.

I just found the idea offputting. Being the second vote on someone is hardly bandwagoning or anything like that

 

[Barney]

Smells like lunch bomb to me

Not a lunch bomb. I wish.

 

[Rey]

Not a lunch bomb. I wish.

Really the more you don't post the more I really honest to god believe that you're lunch bomb

 

[Barney]

Really the more you don't post the more I really honest to god believe that you're lunch bomb

I'm not one tho.

 

[Zombie]

I don't think these posts are bread crumbing anything. I never know what to do in these situations, we don't get much info if we jump on Barney, but just barely skating by tends to let scum hide till late game.

Don't think Barney is scum. Scum too self conscious to try what Barney is trying. Would also be too self conscious to walk it back like he's doing.

@Dracula is suddenly gone

He went mistborne

 

[Dracula]

@Dracula is suddenly gone

Was just about to pop in and say that I'm slammed tonight and will be on first thing in the morning through EoD.

 

[Bob Ross]

@Bob Ross There are a few players who think you are a good lynch candidate for today, and you haven't really addressed them. Do you have any thoughts or better choices on who we should lynch?

I'm not going to bother addressing those people anymore, this is the last time. Their whole thinking is that I'm either defensive or that I didn't contribute enough while I was here, to which I say do people really think they are contributing when they talk about if Cereal Killer is a Serial Killer or Dracula dropping an accent? I could be posting bullshit like that all day. I'm still saying lynch Dracula, as for Rey he's probably town for reasons hard to explain.

You going to vote there yourself?

 

[Bob Ross]

You going to vote there yourself?

I'll vote there closer to the end of the day.

 

[Cereal Killer]

I'll vote there closer to the end of the day.

You’re already that certain of your end vote? Why not take a stand now

 

[Bob Ross]

You’re already that certain of your end vote? Why not take a stand now

Sure I guess although I don't usually vote early D1.
Vote: Dracula

 

[Prisoner]

These pushes on clown seem more like people trying to fabricate a reason to place a vote, I seriously don't understand how his comments are scum POV, esp. considering his lack of opportunistic vote followup to his suspicions.

Not putting down a vote is not really a Town indicator in my opinion. Scum is usually more careful where they put their votes.

Interesting that a lot of people were on the Drac thing but didn't vote there even as prod

vote: Barack Obama
please know it isn't personal, Mr. President but I expect more from you

What do you think this says about the ones that didn't vote? What does it say about Dracula?

Dracula feels like an easy target for town to get led into by Scum, especially on Day 1 when people aren't able to look too deeply. It's all noise that is so NAI, I don't like it.

Vote: Zombie

That was my feeling as well. There's this sudden push that it is definitely a slip and I don't really like it.

Don't think Barney is scum. Scum too self conscious to try what Barney is trying. Would also be too self conscious to walk it back like he's doing.

Has he really walked it back though?

 

[Cereal Killer]

I think Drac was worth exploring but handled himself well. Not a target for me today now but want to see how he keeps playing. Also plan to go look at the people who piled on after he has already been suspected by a few but not gonna dig too much tonight and I want to hear from some others too.

 

[Daenerys Targaryen]

Are we still bussing Dracula or not?

 

[Daenerys Targaryen]

There's something going on between @Cereal Killer @Dracula and @Daenerys Targaryen

Only one scum left for you to find

Whilst Day one activity is NAI

@Daenerys Targaryen psychic vision is almost worth investgating after day one

I'm not following this psychic vision thing. You mean the light TR on me?

For someone talking about each other a lot they don’t talk together a whole lot.

 

[Daenerys Targaryen]

Don't mind me, just here completing my post quota without contributing to the discussion.

Thank you for your contribution.

 

[Kool-Aid Man]

Kool-Aid has few posts, but I like them,

Thank you for that. I watched certain people get suspected and took some notes. What I noticed first of all is the fact that Dracula was suspected without having a real clue. Everything seems very, very suspect to me. I will now pursue this.

Why the vote for Zombie? He looks like an easier target.

 

[Kool-Aid Man]

Don't mind me, just here completing my post quota without contributing to the discussion.

I do not understand you. Why do you write anything if at the end of the day it will only be something that does not help anyone. Is your goal today to unsettle the city or do you want to annoy us?

 

[Daenerys Targaryen]

Thank you for that. I watched certain people get suspected and took some notes. What I noticed first of all is the fact that Dracula was suspected without having a real clue. Everything seems very, very suspect to me. I will now pursue this.

Let us view the situation without assuming whether Dracula’s soul is good or not.

There is quite a bit of activity about this post by Dracula so there has to be responses from good souls about it. How do you think an evil would be reacting?

 

[Kool-Aid Man]

I suspect the plan would look like this. Someone starts throwing eggs against him, if this is done by a good soul all the better, otherwise evil soul A would throw an egg against good soul B. A few good souls would then jump on the train and start throwing eggs, possibly an evil soul would also be added, but I suspect that only a small part of the evil souls would participate in order to look good. All of this is just guesswork, of course, but I trust my instinct by not wasting my energy digging too deep today.

 

[Barack Obama]

That would be the standard number. Four evils in a game of seventeen has a long history.

right fair enough,though I think there's 18 players . Dracula said something similar, (complete with equations!), so leaning towards 'not a scum making a dumb mistake' for now

 

[Barack Obama]

Mr. President, what exactly is wrong about that comment - why is is terrible enough for you to desire the death of the detained?

Death is a part of life, and sometimes the only thing we can do is choose who goes first

**I'll probably be moving my vote off of Prisoner soon though !

 

[Witch]

To who?

 

[Barack Obama]

@Zombie @Barack Obama @Kool-Aid Man have all been real quiet, Cinderella just above but at least they have made a little impact I think (going off memory)

I'm trying I'm trying

 

[Barack Obama]

To who?

Hmmm actually looking back Prisoner is still 1st on list, followed by Banana.

Reason for Banana being 2nd on the lunchlist is pretty silly; I don't trust people who towe read me day one (or townish read me)

 

[Clown]

Death is a part of life, and sometimes the only thing we can do is choose who goes first

Mr. President, do you often respond twice to the same question?

 

[Barack Obama]

Mr. President, do you often respond twice to the same question?

only when I'm confused and tired Mr Clown (wait did I answer the same question twice?)

Interesting that a lot of people were on the Drac thing but didn't vote there even as prod

vote: Barack Obama
please know it isn't personal, Mr. President but I expect more from you

My take on the Dracula situation is wait and see how things develop over the next game day then revisit things.

 

[Barack Obama]

To all the nonvoters, who are you leaning towards and why?

 

[Clown]

(wait did I answer the same question twice?)

It sure seems so. Both of these had you quoting me. Did you forget your previous response?

I just found the idea offputting. Being the second vote on someone is hardly bandwagoning or anything like that

[Banana]

I would like to see some more impressions lists from people to see where everyone stands on the player base in total. I'm curious to see if there is anyone who is under my radar that is more suspect to other people and vice versa.

 

[Witch]

To all the nonvoters, who are you leaning towards and why?

Banana - Feels like a calculated town act. I keep reading his posts, and he looks and sounds town, but given the whole range of interactions we've had in this day 1, keeping a level head feels totally out of place. Almost like he is disconnected from the proceedings.
Bob Ross - It feels like Bob Ross is coming in occasionally just to shoot folks down and make them look bad, despite supposedly carrying a "day 1 doesn't matter" attitude. Even if he is not scum, he is not very helpful to town.
Zombie - Similar to Bob Ross, seems to be posting when addressed. Despite not being involved in many discussions, he's replied quite strongly to two presses that are barely taps on the shoulder.

VOTE: Banana

I'm putting a vote down now where I feel most confident. I'll check in as I can before the end of the day, but I won't have time to write up more detailed posts.

I would like to see some more impressions lists from people to see where everyone stands on the player base in total. I'm curious to see if there is anyone who is under my radar that is more suspect to other people and vice versa.

I don't have time to write all my thoughts out, but I've been pretty vocal about my feelings throughout the day. For those I haven't addressed, looking at the post count list, pretty much everyone below Bob Ross is a null read for me.

Hey guys, I just wanted to drop in a line and mention that per your requests, I've enabled changing Posts Per Page in the preferences section of the site. You can click on your name in the upper right hand part of the site, select "Preferences" and then change the number to 25, 50, 100, 150, or even 200. (It defaults to 100. I have a feeling I'm going to need to trim those options down when people start arguing about how 200 ppp is superior or something like that. Natiko, let me know if it becomes an issue.)

Anyway, enjoy the game!

Hmm? Why am I in costume if I'm not part of the game?

Don't worry about it, it's not important.

Why the vote for Zombie? He looks like an easier target.

What? That doesn't make any sense. How is Zombie an easy target for scum to push town onto?

 

[Witch]

I agree. No one is making Zombie look like an easy target. He’s doing that just fine on his own.

Bob Ross posting reminded me I was half-asleep reading this and didn’t properly address it. For all the dismissing you’re doing on the conversations surrounding Dracula, you’re at least convinced enough to vote to lynch him. How do you square up your reasoning for not engaging in conversation because it’s bullshit with a vote based on bullshit?

The vote is not based on bullshit, that's your opinion.

I’m using your words. What is the vote on Dracula based on if not the same pointless day 1 conversations?

I do not feel the power in the witch, like at all...

Will be a bold move but one that is at least a move.

Vote: Witch

 

[Bob Ross]

When did I say everything on day 1 is pointless? Don't put words in my mouth, I only said certain players are posting bullshit and calling it "scumhunting", when it's clearly just busywork, it's pretty obvious what I wanted to say.

 

[Clown]

@Bob Ross your case against Dracula, is it just the "slip"?

 

[Bob Ross]

@Bob Ross your case against Dracula, is it just the "slip"?

I mean it's day 1, we don't have much to go off, the slip is the best thing we have and I'm sure people can agree, I've seen some say that we should wait and see on that but I'm asking, why? Can they give me any reason as to why wait? It's D1, we might've caught scum and you want to wait for no reason, we don't have better leads anyway.

Is it bold because nobody really is entertaining this option or what makes this move bold in your opinion? Why do you think nobody is considering Witch? Why are you considering Witch / why should we consider Witch? What do you think about Witch's top three targets?

 

[Daenerys Targaryen]

What? That doesn't make any sense. How is Zombie an easy target for scum to push town onto?

Why wouldn’t he be an easy target? He’s done a lot less than Dracula.

Stop judging players on post count, just stop. Scum can post a lot as well, it's not guaranteed that scum will just coast.

I for one completely disagree when you say that the slip is the best thing we have. I don't think it was a slip. With that, the rest falls apart in my view. I think we should not lynch Dracula, because there is no good reason to do so. I don't really understand the opposite view to mine, the one you seem to hold, as it seems to be based on what I view as a complete falsehood.

 

[Daenerys Targaryen]

Zombie’s post count is fine, they’ve just not made much of an impression. I already know a lot of Dracula’s thoughts on this game unlike Zombie.

I will say, I'm not there yet but Witch is definitely moving up my list of possible scum. I mean look at this:

Sorry, I failed to tie my point back to Zombie suddenly putting a vote down with very light prodding from CK. That was part of the issue.

I agree with your overall point. I’ve been content with letting people explore Dracula and try to facilitate that, provide information where necessary, even if I believe the Dracula situation is everyone jumping at shadows. My reasoning for taking issue with yourself or Bob Ross or even Zombie now is built on a whole lot less.

But when he went to cast his votes he just defaulted to the the same people as suspects with bad reasons and then just went with the "sorry, I won't have time to contribute much today" route to slink back into the shadows.

 

[Banana]

What was the reasoning behind this post? It feels a bit like an evil asking what good people they can vote for.

A) I want to get people on record regarding how they are looking at things. It's easy for a scum to hide if only a couple of targets getting focus rather than spreading the view out a little wider. It won't help much for today but can be helpful as the day goes along.
B) If someone is strong on another player that I am not I want to see that so I can go back and see if I feel like there is anything I am personally missing.
C) Don't act like lists aren't something that people commonly put out in these games.

Reread what I wrote. I did not say I wouldn’t have time to contribute. You asked for a reads list, which is more than I can write out while I’m working. I’ve put reads out there all day.

I already said I didn’t have much behind my reasoning behind those lynch candidates, but I explained that as best I could. I’m not sure why you’re reemphasizing that on my behalf like you got me.

I don’t care if folks suspect me, but let it at least be for legitimate reasons.

 

[Bob Ross]

Zombie’s post count is fine, they’ve just not made much of an impression. I already know a lot of Dracula’s thoughts on this game unlike Zombie.

This is a bad way of thinking, has Koolaid man or Obama left an impression? Do you really know their thoughts? The opposite can be said about me, I clearly left an impression, this is why you're voting me and I've clearly given my thoughts yet your vote is on me. Why? Explain that to me.

They would be easy votes too. If you can’t find scum you’re better off removing the dead weight than potentially removing a useful good person.

[Bob Ross]

A useful "good" person might just be scum posting a lot so they can pocket players, have you thought about that?

If you’re low on time it can be as easy as naming some people you like and some you don’t like.
Finding your old posts takes a fair bit of time so a simple summary goes a long way.

 

[Daenerys Targaryen]

A useful "good" person might just be scum posting a lot so they can pocket players, have you thought about that?

Yup, but it’s much easier hiding when you’re not posting much. Statistical analysis shows that the top posters are usually not scum and that’s what my experience tells me too. Obviously a talkative person is always talkative, but game after game people are surprised at how many of the people they don’t notice are scum.

I felt a little bad for not posting a list there of my own, but I’m a little unsure of what to put there. I have some very surface level gut reads that I wanna look a bit more into.

 

[Bob Ross]

Do you have any thoughts on Zombie right now Bob?

Null, the only one I have strong thoughts are Dracula as scum, Rey as town and a lean scum on you. The rest are nulls for now.

 

[Bob Ross]

But explain to me why your vote is on me, the original reasoning was that I didn't contribute despite following the game.

 

[Cinderella]

To all the nonvoters, who are you leaning towards and why?

Dracula, fairly weak reason but I don't see a better candidate yet.

I for one completely disagree when you say that the slip is the best thing we have. I don't think it was a slip. With that, the rest falls apart in my view.

Spidey is still on my list although not at the top of it.

 

[Jack Sparrow]

Barney’s post to get his post count to 10 seemed a little like a lunch bomb to me but I’ll keep on eye on them in the future. As for the two people I am currently leaning towards I would say zombie or Bob Ross. I understand the votes for Drac since we don’t have much to go on but I think zombies and bob Ross’s posts are more sus to me with their defensiveness. I disagree with the notion that they are the “easy targets” because their posts are what set the arms off not someone else trying to push a narrative. I’ll make up my mind soon.

Make it fast because I'll need to claim if I'm close to being lynched and I'll be busy day end.

 

[Daenerys Targaryen]

Show me this statistical analysis. I want proof.

That took a lot of time, sorry.

Here are the post counts of D1 from a few games in the same season (Doggy, Nightmare and Greed) with the scum highlighted and there are more scum in the lower part than the higher part. If we add them all we get 1/3 + 1/2 + 3/2 for a total of 5 in the top half and 7 in the bottom half.

This is quite a small sample, but notice how much higher the top poster is in all of these who is not scum.

 

[Daenerys Targaryen]

Oh so that’s what the stupid attachment segment was for. I noticed individual pictures were too big.

This is quite a small sample, but notice how much higher the top poster is in all of these who is not scum.

Meh, doesn't tell me much, Monkey posts a lot regardless, Fanto posts a lot as well, so do Blarg and Turmoil. On the other side Malus and Aeleus always post low, LP of course as well.

But explain to me why your vote is on me, the original reasoning was that I didn't contribute despite following the game.

Pretty much the same. You felt afraid of contributing too much, but posted as if you were following. Current activity has been better, but still quite narrowly focused so it’s hard to get an impression of how much scumhunting you’re doing and where your heart is.

To add to that it's not a huge difference, 5 to 7 could be 7 to 5 in a different bunch of games easily, come on DT.

 

[Cereal Killer]

That took a lot of time, sorry.

Most of those people don’t post a huge amount day one even if they are town. It depends on how much shitposting there is

You wanted data and I got that from three pretty randomly selected games.

I'm not afraid of contributing, I literally didn't have time so I popped in and called out something I saw as suspect. Like I said what's the point in hyper analyzing D1 shit, how many games can you remember where D1 shitposting and reads were relevant, almost never. D1 is bus zone for scum since almost nothing matters and for town it's shots in the dark.

I was more hoping for an article or a study or something.

That’s too close to metagaming for me in a costume game since it’ll come from the outside.

You behaved similar to that so I read it like that.

Why would D1 be bus town for scum? I read bus as in a genuine “I’m trying to get you removed” rather than “lol, random vote” and it is really really stupid for scum to do that D1.

So next time I'm scum be the person with the most posts, got it. /s

I don't know if those really show much because it doesn't take into account individual play styles and there isn't much commonality in the player base between those games. Geno is the only one who played in all three and they had the same basic post count in all of them. I understand the thinking behind this and I agree to a point, most of the time the scum are going to try to find that middle ground, but I think individual play styles make it too variable to really put a ton of stock in it.

Maybe bus town wasn't a great choice of words, but scum put scum in their D1 reads because it's D1.

The thing is it’s quite hard to be super active as scum compared to being town. Everything you do is fake. I think the biggest difference however is among the people who struggle being scum and can end up falling a bit off the radar and the overall low posters who put some extra attempts in as scum to avoid being a target. Both contribute to the lower section.

See, you have a pattern here you can follow. If this holds true we should see some scum make odd scum reads on their partners.

Eh, maaaaybe, it's not guaranteed they'll do it and you don't really know who it is, anyway I'll come back later.

Reads for the Reads God

[She/Her] Baby - Giving some pretty middle of the road thoughts. I don’t have enough of a feeling where they are at; whether non-committing scum or unsure town.
[He/Him] Banana - My top scum at the moment. Engaging just enough with folks to buy town cred, pushing folks, but I can’t shake the feeling that there’s not much behind his words. Also, despite me accusing him a few times throughout the day, only on this morning decides to test the waters for a lynch on me just because one other player has voted for me.
[-] Barack Obama - null read
[He/Him] Barney - I don’t like the attitude Barney has but I don’t think that indicates anything further than a person who doesn’t want to mess around with D1 proceedings. Not a positive in my book, by any means.
[He/Him] Bob Ross - I cant really pin Bob Ross. His logic doesn’t seem to make much sense. He thinks that D1 is a waste of time, that many players are wasting their time discussing certain things, but is basically putting a vote down on the same type of behavior. Very suspicious, but since he is posting more now, I’m mixed on whether he is scum or aggravated and mistaken town.
[She/Her] Cereal Killer|CK - Very helpful and pushing good rhetoric. Would be a beneficial player to keep around, even at running the risk of her being scum.
[He/Him] Cinderella - middle of the road. I got nothing else to say.
[He/Him] Clown - trying to be helpful for the most part. I’m not sure about much of his thinking but it’s at least healthy conversation.
[She/Her] Daenerys Targaryen - A little all over the place, but also seems to just be trying to help town. The Dracula stuff at the start of day may have hurt more than it helped, but we’ve all been there.
[He/Him] Dracula - middle of the road. I don’t have much to say about him.
[He/Him] Jack Sparrow - null read
[He/Him] Kool-Aid Man - null read. He has a vote on me, but I just shrug because I don’t know where it’s coming from.
[He/Him] Minecraft Steve - null read
[He/Him] Prisoner - null read
[He/Him] Rey - Erratic and not helping a whole lot. Given the history of games here, I’m pretty sure that points to town.
[-] Spider-Man - I don’t have much of a read on them, but trying to get the ball rolling helped create a lot of discussion. I respect that they took that risk.
[He/Him] Witch - idk pretty cool guy I guess
[He/Him] Zombie - I’m very leery of the way Zombie has been acting. He seems to be sniping posts addressing him, rather than propagating any meaningful conversation of his own.

vote: Spider-Man

The talk about random numbers is boring and doesn't mean much

 

[Witch]

Is it bold because nobody really is entertaining this option or what makes this move bold in your opinion? Why do you think nobody is considering Witch? Why are you considering Witch / why should we consider Witch? What do you think about Witch's top three targets?

Would have really liked this answered.

 

[Cereal Killer]

Would rather try to get some different people talking before day end. Not going to vote for DT even if that argument is bad because people who make content are good but there are people who are just hanging on sidelines. Lets get them talking.

[Jack Sparrow]

Those stats don’t hold much weight with me right now. But imma drop my vote here
Zombie.
I am choosing to vote for Zombie for their defensiveness and hyperbolic comments.

agree on this
