I am extremely convinced of Haylen's guilt now. We have seen nothing but excuses from her...Excuses for her play day 1, excuses for her lack of posting, excuses for her failure to analyze...We simply can't allow that. I feel confident in voting now.
Vote: HaylenMy posts are best read in the calm, reassuring voice of Morgan Freeman. I don't sound anything like him, but they sound best that way.
Temporarily retiring following the end of my current obligations.-

@Haylen
Regarding the text mentioned in 524. Please provide what you've written so far.
@Jase
In 528 you were against a no lynch and in 535 you belive there is no cop alive. Yet, in 545 you're in favor of a no lynch referring to "it would give a potential cop an opportunity to get in an extra investigation" which was posted in 534, before 535.
What is your stance on a no lynch and why?
@Vel-Rahn Koon
Please comment on the issue raised in 539 and further explained in 543.
@Nachomamma8
Please comment on the issue raised in 539 and further explained in 543.
Please answer the question raised in 537.
Not a single player? Better watch your words, because you're saying you're not even sure about your own alignment.Netopalis wrote:I would support it. Honestly, there's not a single player left in this game that I can really rule out, and it would give a potential cop an opportunity to get in an extra investigation. Additionally, although it's generally frowned upon, I do think that hte identity of the deceased could be useful as well.
Have you gotten any useful information from the death of Yamijoey and MichelSableHeart?If I'm not back in five just wait longer.-

Oh, please. Don't be so nitpicky. Of course I know my own alignment. Honestly.
No real additional information from YamiJoey because I replaced after he died and that information was incorporated into my initial reading. No real information from Michel because it was obvious that was going to happen.My posts are best read in the calm, reassuring voice of Morgan Freeman.

Well, for one I didn't say we should no lynch because of a potential cop. I just think we should probably no lynch today or tomorrow, because once we lynch haylen there isn't anyone who really sticks out, so we should then narrow our lynch pool.Bwian wrote:@Jase

In short, the prior deaths have provided no useful information. Why do you expect the next nightkill to give us any valuable information?Netopalis wrote:

Looking at your actions I don't have any records of you ever voting for anyone but Haylen. And to my notes it seems that for every suspect you've had you've later or prior also called them pro-town. Who else do you suspect at the moment? Why is that?If I'm not back in five just wait longer.-

I suspected VRK for reasons I stated earlier. Right now, I don't have any other serious suspicions, although I have lighter, gut reads against you and Jase. I expect the next nightkill to give us valuable information because none of us are looking particularly good as town, and thus we won't be in a situation like yesterday, where Michel was an obvious choice whose death would give us no information.My posts are best read in the calm, reassuring voice of Morgan Freeman.

Not only do we gain higher chances of a correct lynch, but we gain time. We gain an entire day of scumtells, towntells, activity, or the lack of it. For example, I guarantee that if Haylen is town, she will work a little to redeem herself so she doesn't remain most of the reason why the town loses. If she doesn't, then I will be far more confident in her lynch tomorrow.Vel-Rahn Koon wrote:
How can you possibly reconcile the two bolded statements?Nachomamma8 wrote:Vel-Rahn Koon wrote:Thanks Neto.
Nacho, since you suggested it, what information do you think will be gained from a No Lynch today? Do you think that it will significantly help the Town's chances tomorrow of catching scum if we narrow the field from 6 to 5?
Does anyone besides Jase and Nacho have an opinion on this?Right now, there is no extremely pro-town player. I can see every one of us being scum.Looking at it statistically-wise, if we no lynch today, we'll have a 50% chance of hitting scum on a random lynch. If that random lynch is successful, we have a 2 town versus 1 scum situation, which is the best chance we have right now. If we lynch and manage to hit scum, we'll still be in MyLo, and we'll have 3 townies versus one scum instead.I have full confidence that a no-lynch today will improve the town's chances dramatically, regardless of who the scum decides to kill.
If you can't find a pro-town player today, how are you going to find one tomorrow? A No Lynch today means that we're down to LyLo tomorrow. If you can see any one of us being scum, how is getting rid of only one person going to dramatically improve our chances tomorrow?
Don't take this as me saying I don't think we should No Lynch. I'm not saying that at this point. What I am saying is that I think your logic is flawed and that you're not doing anything to convince me that a No Lynch is the way to go. If everyone is of the opinion that we should No Lynch, I'll go with it, but I'd feel better about it if we had solid reasons why it's going to help us. Right now, if we No Lynch we'll still be stuck with the same group of all scummy-looking players. I don't see how that's going to help us.
Right now, if we No Lynch, we'll be stuck with 5 scummy players as opposed to 6, which is one suspect gone from 3 townie's lists. It is also a confirmed innocent, so we can look at those who bandwagon and push for lynches based on yet another connection.-

Why why WHY are we not no lynching?
6 players
4 townies, 2 scum.
Mislynch today and we go to night with 3 townies and 2 scum.
Scum kill during the night and it's 2 townie and 2 scum.
That means we lose.
If we want a better chance of winning, we NEED to no lynch today.
The fact that VRK is an experienced player and should know this, but is pushing for a lynch does not escape me.
I also would like to know how he can be so convinced about my alignment when he can't know my role. It is ridiculous to for a person to suggest that they are 100% certain a person is scum, a person can only have confirmed guilt or innocence in a newbie game if they are dead; didnt hammer in 3 player lylo or there is a cop result on them. An IC SHOULD know that.
Bwian: There could be multiple reasons why a person hasn't been posting. I've been lurking site wide for ages. Also, however counterproductive a defence mechanism may be, it's a psychological thing and difficult to change. People tend to need cognitive therapy to change any kind of defence mech.
Also, it is NOT cool to suggest that a single person is the reason why an alignment lose. What about the other people who pushed that person?
Yeah, anyway. I do have reasons for being a particular bad townie and I'm going to try not to beat myself up over that game anymore. Haylen's back. Now lets play.
Neto: How are you extremely convinced of my guilt?Seriously. Read your role PM before playing.
I am sorry if you have to prod me, I have absolutely no concept of time.
My prefered pronoun set is "cie/cir/cirs[elf]" but they is more than acceptable.-

Are you an experienced player? The reasoning above is jibberish!Haylen wrote:Why why WHY are we not no lynching?

It's correct that we lose if we mislynch today but the fact that we lose if we mislynch isn't going to change if we no lynch today.
Regardless if we no lynch today or not we're now so few that all town must agree and vote for a mafia player in order for us to lynch a mafia player. If we don't lynch today we reduce the number of town players that must agree to 3, but at the same time we reduce the number of town players that can vote for the wrong player without the mafia hammering a mislynch. When reducing our numbers we also lose the inerta that saves us from losing the game at a single bad vote.
A single vote that isn't fully thought through will lose the game in a 3 vs 2 situation. If we are to no lynch today people must be aware of this and avoid mistakes due to voting without knowing the vote status.
I'm torn when it comes to not lynching. With the above in mind I am worried it might be a bad idea. On the other hand I am curious about the analysis Netopalis promised.If I'm not back in five just wait longer.-

If we want to gain time it's a bad idea to vote for a no lynch since that would end the day. If we want to use the time we should not vote today.Nachomamma8 wrote:Not only do we gain higher chances of a correct lynch, but we gain time.

Why on earth would anyone town or mafia form or join a bandwagon if we decide it's best not to lynch anyone today?
Focus now should not be on how many we are. Because we will always need a majority to vote someone and from this point on that majority will need to be all town players or we lose. What we need to remember is that the share of town of players is rather insignificant when compared to the arguments for who to lynch.
Talking about a no lynch or not is a track that leads nowhere. We need to focus on who is scum.If I'm not back in five just wait longer.-

With regard to 562 and 561 I'd appreciate if you could explain why you take this stand at this point. I fail to see why that is a good idea.Haylen wrote:Vote No lynch
I refuse to lynch any player today.
Please put it aside for the time being. Do not let it distract you. The analysis is much more anticipated.If I'm not back in five just wait longer.-

This part confuse me. If one chose not to hammer, would not that have the same meaning in any even number player lylo situation? Such as 5 players of which 2 are mafia.Haylen wrote:I also would like to know how he can be so convinced about my alignment when he can't know my role.

An IC SHOULD know that.
Being a person that risk being called nitpicky I reacted to "100%" as well, but read the intended meaning as being certain. I chose to consider it poor writing (which is a bad thing and he is usually well spoken so it's worth noticing) rather than a logical error.
When you mention cop reads I came to think of how tricky it would be of VRK to urge a cop to reveal himself, if he were the cop. Maybe that's too complicated and sophisticated way of playing it being a cop, but unless he's scum that is a good way of leading the mafia into killing someone else at night. Or if he's scum it's a good way making me think that he's making himself less likely to be nightkilled. I need to think of something else for a while.
My objection was that you didn't stick to one excuse why you wasn't posting, but in the same post mentioned two reasons that stand in conflict with each other. Either you chose not to post as a defence mechanism or you didn't have time to post. Which is it? Only way to combine the two is if you chose not to have time, in which case there was time but you chose not to use it.Haylen wrote:Bwian: There could be multiple reasons why a person hasn't been posting.

Though it's a valid point when you say bronco/VRK havn't been posting much and I'm looking forward to his answer you're overevaluating your own ability to answer to posts addressed to you. It's more than once you've promised sharing your analysis with us but we just have to keep waiting.

As for hypocrisy you're taking irrelevant information into the comparison. My signature is as relevant for my posts in this thread as the forum title I asked you about in 280. The difference is that I asked when I didn't know. You're making a hen out of an imaginary feather. Though I use it in a modified version the herigate can be found among Memorable quotes for Ace Ventura: Pet Detective.
I didn't mean that it should rhyme literally. I asume you're aware of the expression.
As for that analysis post, so far it's the following two persons you've shared:
- VRK, which must be considered as your main target since the role card of MichelSableHeart was flipped.
- Bwian, who have been a been a pain in your ass lately.
Sadly from my point of view those two were the least interesting persons.
I'm very much looking forward to your analysis of the following:
- Jase
- Nachomamma8, voted early D3 and then unvoted.
- Netopalis, currently the only one voting.
- MichelSableHeart

Jase, you do realize how badly you're fence-riding right now, right? You're not taking a firm stance on ANYTHING and you've been lurking for the past two days. I was satisfied with your play day 1, but it seems you used day 1 to establish a pro-town view on you, then you've been coasting by for the past few days. I need some content from you, now. I want your top three suspects, and I want you to provide at least three reasons each as to why you believe so, or else you will remain the top suspect on my list.Jase wrote:Bwain: We don't really gain much from the speculation about power roles.

I do not appreciate the emulating of VRK's style at this point, and I also believe you are not in any position whatsoever to do so. You are not able to judge someone's logic, rip on their experience, then create an entire post on invalid logic. Based on your logic, we have a better chance of lynching scum on day one than in a 2 town 1 scum scenario. Prove me wrong if you disagree.Bwian wrote:Regardless if we no lynch today or not we're now so few that all town must agree and vote for a mafia player in order for us to lynch a mafia player.

Pardon the language, but... Bwain, what the hell are you talking about? Where did I say that we should vote for a no lynch, anywhere? At this moment, am I voting for a no lynch?
Why do we need a bandwagon today? Why can't we have suspects and scumhunting?
No one on either side should be joining a bandwagon today because we are going to no lynch today. No lynching is the best thing to do today. What we have to remember today is that from now on, if we mislynch, we lose. The scum are extremely close to winning unless every town player steps up and gets some good scumhunting going. Without votes.
If you believe we should talk about who to lynch more instead of no lynching, you show me how lynching is the best thing to do right now.
You've confused yourself with WIFOM. If VRK is softclaiming the cop, then he is scummy. He doesn't want to no-lynch, which means he's willing to bet the game on a single lynch. If he is the cop then he better come out of hiding now and announce his results because they will do much to help the town, more so than risking for one more investigation. If he’s trying to make the town believe he has a cop result without claiming cop, then he is being extremely scummy and will be lynched. So, don’t treat ANYONE like they’re a cop unless they claimed it.Bwian wrote: When you mention cop reads I came to think of how tricky it would be of VRK to urge a cop to reveal himself, if he were the cop.

As for the question, I will answer it. Right after you show me where I suggested lynching a random person.
Nothing but excuses? I disagree. She's made her fair bit of accusations, and as of right now, she's been posting more than you have. So if you can't allow Haylen's lack of posting, why should we allow yours?

Have you gotten any useful information from the death of Yamijoey and MichelSableHeart?
I don't believe my playing before Day 3 has been good OR protown. I realized I messed up quite a bit in a multitude of ways. However, I nor he said that we were scum. We just said there weren't any protown players. Know the difference.
As for your question of the deaths, due to foilist's NK, the only person left on my bandwagon from Day 1 is you. You voted me because of a logic disagreement, and there is a pretty good chance that someone on my bandwagon was scum, so what conclusion do you think I'm drawing here?"Playing with Nacho is like playing with a religious conservative." ~UncertainKitten

First of all, if that quote is supposed to be an example of me fence sitting, it's a bad one. In it I say that we SHOULD no lynch which is a fairly firm stance, andNachomamma8 wrote:

I'd actually like to know your top 3, we can exchange our suspect lists, and everyone else should chime in too while we're at it. Anyways, it's late right now, but I'll wet your appetite for tomorrow, and give you a taste of what I'm planning to say.
Morsel 1: Haylen is my top suspect, and if all things are held constant I believe she would be the best lynch. As for the reasons I suspect her, again it's late so for now I'm content to gesture wildly at the ends of D1 and D2. Though I plan to do an actual analysis tomorrow.
Morsel 2: All I have as far as other suspects is a series of nebulous gut reads on everyone. I'll sort this out and get back to you either tomorrow or the day after depending on how long it takes me to analyze haylen.

I'm having breakfast now and won't have time to answer everything at the moment before I need to be off to work. I'll start out from the top and see how far I get. Will of course continue where I need to pause.
It's a mystery to me in what way my reasoning is emultating another player. If you want me to answer that part I need to you explain it further. I think you read alot into the text that isn't there.Nachomamma8 wrote:

You are not able to judge someone's logic, rip on their experience, then create an entire post on invalid logic. Based on your logic, we have a better chance of lynching scum on day one than in a 2 town 1 scum scenario. Prove me wrong if you disagree.Bwian wrote:Regardless if we no lynch today or not we're now so few that all town must agree and vote for a mafia player in order for us to lynch a mafia player. If we don't lynch today we reduce the number of town players that must agree to 3, but at the same time we reduce the number of town players that can vote for the wrong player without the mafia hammering a mislynch. When reducing our numbers we also lose the inerta that saves us from losing the game at a single bad vote.
The message I'm trying to put through is that we shouldn't treat not lynching as a holy grail. You may note I didn't take stand against it. I just wanted us to pace ourselfs and consider the cons as well. Not lynching today would put us in adifferentsituation, for betterandworse.
Not lynching today wouldn't change the fact that from now an all town players need to agree in order for us to lynch scum.The difference between today and tomorrow is how many all town players are.
There is a certain safety when a townie is allowed to make a bad vote without causing his team losing the game. If a town player is fooled to vote for another town player in a 2 town 1 scum scenario it's over.If I'm not back in five just wait longer.-

Why should I motivate a stance I havn't taken? Read the bolded part again.Nachomamma8 wrote:
Pardon the language, but... Bwain, what the hell are you talking about? Where did I say that we should vote for a no lynch, anywhere? At this moment, am I voting for a no lynch?Bwian wrote:If we want to gain time it's a bad idea to vote for a no lynch since that would end the day.If we want to use the time we should not vote today.
Why on earth would anyone town or mafia form or join a bandwagon if we decide it's best not to lynch anyone today?
Focus now should not be on how many we are. Because we will always need a majority to vote someone and from this point on that majority will need to be all town players or we lose. What we need to remember is that the share of town of players is rather insignificant when compared to the arguments for who to lynch.
Talking about a no lynch or not is a track that leads nowhere. We need to focus on who is scum.
[..]
If you believe we should talk about who to lynch more instead of no lynching, you show me how lynching is the best thing to do right now.
What I was saying is that it's a bad idea to vote for a no lynch, which is what I thought you ment when saying no lynch. If your meaning of no lynch is not to vote today I'm happy with your stance on that issue.
It seems to me you're using two standards. You vouch for talking about who is scum and yet try to make me look bad for suggesting the same thing in the post you're replying to.Nachomamma8 wrote:No lynching is the best thing to do today. What we have to remember today is that from now on, if we mislynch, we lose. The scum are extremely close to winning unless every town player steps up and gets some good scumhunting going. Without votes.
Uhm... it was you who wanted to draw conclusions based on who bandwagon. If you're referring to bandwagons in the past, why wait until tomorrow to analyse those?Nacho wrote:
Why do we need a bandwagon today? Why can't we have suspects and scumhunting?Bwian wrote:

It is also a confirmed innocent, sowe can look at those who bandwagonand push for lynches based on yet another connection.If I'm not back in five just wait longer.
