I do find votes alignment indicative but in this specific situation I can't see this being specifically scummy or townie, or revealing of either players alignment based on a flip. his voting on ottox in the first place may be alignment indicative, but the vote switch isn't.
i think its probable he just forgot about the tie rule. If you think he realized "oh, my voteswitch and the voteswitch back will change first majority to zeph, but my vote won't change really", then carry on thinking that, but I don't think that that is what happened.
I'm somewhere in the middle I think. Like - it looks bad, and the fact of the matter is, his last minute switch DID CHANGE the result. It really could be scum trying to save their KP.
On the other hand, it is also entirely possible that Broodking voted late just because he wasn't sure, and he finally voted on who he found scummy, and Risen just fucked up.
This is why I said earlier, when we lynch someone tomorrow there better be a good total case on them, not just this voting weirdness.

Not mad at all, just baffled that that would be the one thing you chose.

Alright, a post of where I'm at today and what I plan to be doing this evening. When I'm home from work this evening, I want to be looking hard at Ottoxlol (as a likely lynch today), Risen (vote last night, but also he has had significant cases against him), and MidnightGladius (layabout's testament if you will).
But before this, the lurker problem. Let's go.
BroodkingEXE: Spoilered below is his one significant post over the last few days.
+ Show Spoiler +On April 26 2012 02:19 BroodKingEXE wrote:@Marvel It seems like your posting has gotten a lot better since you started so I am going to take my scum suspicions off you. I still have mixed feelings on your scattershot accusations, but they seem to be based off real facts. You asked me about Zephirdd/Sentinel/Ottoxlol. Out of the three of them I find Zephirdd pretty scummy, his last minute vote seemed rushed to me as if he was a Mafia trying to jump a bandwagon. Regardless of the fact that he mistimed the vote he made a post like this: Show nested quote +On April 23 2012 07:53 Zephirdd wrote: Oh it seems I have an hour still. Will reconsider. I see this post as quite scummy, what does he mean by will reconsider? That statement leads me to believe that he bandwagoned the vote(which he in fact admitted) and is trying to set up a situation where he can say that the vote was rushed later. Show nested quote +On April 23 2012 09:53 Zephirdd wrote: because it's fun to create a scumlist prior doing any analysis or whatsoever, MidnightGladius marvellosity PaqMan --insert unknown scum here-- List done out of pure feelings and zero evidence or analysis and should not be taken seriously at all
Also, may I remind you that my vote was completely and ultimately worthless, as in, even if I didn't vote VE would die. Also, keep this in your mind: if I knew VE was going to die already, and if I already knew he was a JK(as in, if I was scum), why the fuck would I instantly jump right at the deadline and put a worthless vote on him when I could simply vote, say, marvellosity?
Suddenly, I'm not looking that bad anymore, am I?
Also I agree with BMurray being vigged. I'm not sure if he is town or scum, but it would be better if he just died and we didn't had to care about him anymore. This post is also very scummy, what is the point of creating a scum list based on no evidence? He says not to take it seriously, but then why did he post it? He then says that he would have put his vote on marvel, one of the people on this "emotion-based" scum list, seems pretty fishy to me. He easily could have made a scumslip, and is trying to make up a hypothetical situation which makes him look better. He then flips around the idea of him making a case/analysis, and proceeds to say that he doesn't need to make a strong case against anyone. Recently he has been using more of his hypothetics to convince people to not vote for him. This is WIFOM reasoning and leads me to believe he is trying to mislead the town. I only see one useful post (the one about his reads on the town), but it even has a lot of unsupported conlclusions and blatant contradictions. I'll have my thoughts on Uon and Ottoxol in my next post.
Where he calls Zephirdd scummy without apparently being sure. This is to be followed by his last-minute vote on Zephirdd that layabout absolutely hated. Also as noted before he promised us his thoughts on Sentinel and gave us nothing. Need more atm.
St. Daniel: Mr Lurky himself. Food poisoning or not, I will requote my earlier post, spoilered below, showing how he posted 3 times in another game and 0 in this one despite promising to:

Further this we have a ninja and hitherto totally unexplained vote on Zephirdd. Anyway, we have a bunch of totally meaningless posts from him of late.

Alright, although as mentioned it didn't explain the inconsistency in my spoilered post.

What made you think that your previous analysis on Marvellosity was lacking or invalid? There must be a reason why you are not as sure as you were before. Also, "for now?" Do you still think Marv is a scum? PS - I'm trying to get back into the game.
Ok, asking Zephirdd about his stance on me, fair enough I guess. Again mentioning how he's trying to get back into the game.

We should also consider who someone voted with. For sample, if 2 or more people casted the lynch vote on same person for multiple lynches, thst's something we need to take a look at. Note that my theory doesn't work 100% of times but it is something to think about.
Speculation that doesn't actually help anything.

Wow. Glad he posted this nugget of wisdom.
On April 27 2012 09:07 St.Daniel wrote: Alright. It seems I'm back before BM.
This is what happened: I was playing two games of mafia like a total idiot and I got a food poisoning on Monday. I was sick as a dog for a couple days and I had dropped the other game because I just couldn't keep up. First and foremost, I apologize to all of you for being inactive. It was all my fault to join two games at the same time. I've learned my lesson. Also I'm so grateful to iGrok for correcting me of my mistake and understanding of my situation.
YET ANOTHER POST apologising for his absence. If he spent half the bloody time scumhunting as apologising we might be getting somewhere. But no.

That's rather unfortunate, because we spent good chunk of first day talking about it (leading up to VE's claim). My guess are now MG, Sentinel, Mattchew and PaqMan.
More wishy washy crap on job interview, Mementoss dieing, vigi, followed by totally unsubstantiated finger pointing. And still absolutely no explanation of his vote on Zephirdd.
No, I don't like any of this at all. I'm very much leaning scum on him at the moment.
Bill Murray: the 'wildcard' as it were. Bad vote and explanation on VE day 1. 'Had a busy life' day 2. Alright alright. But at some point he needs to start contributing with actual cases.
Janaan: My only lurky person who I'm leaning on the town-side of null. I'd simply like to hear a lot more from him.

He's saying absolutely nothing. He has completely blanked the fact that he posted 3 times in another game on a day and not in this one. He has completely blanked and failed to explain his vote on Zephirdd. He's giving a list of scum without any reasoning at all. What more do you want me to say?

I haven't seen analysis from anyone yet, and that makes me a sad panda. I'm going to shower and then do my best to do some myself, I would encourage everyone else to as well.
At the moment we have the Ottoxlol/Risen issue, but saying "vote x" isn't really sorting it out, is it?

Yes, go on then, please analyse it and tell us what you find, eh?

I did have a look quite recently, and as in my post a little earlier I found he posted quite sensible although not too much. I don't know if that's because he's good at blending in. What I don't like is that his most recent posts basically contributed jack shit to the discussion.
At the moment I'm going through the monumental task that is Risen.

I'm for a lynch on him Risen I'm still not sure about Risen. On the one hand, it really looked like he was trying to save VE on day 1, but then he pulls that stunt to lynch Zepperdd. I'd agree that if Ottox is scum, it makes Risen look REALLY bad, but I don't think we can take that chance today. I also still want to see everything he promised to post when he thought we'd autolynch him. Scummy, but not a good candidate for today's lynch in my opinion. Brood He's been one of our lowest posters which does raise red flags (Pot calling the kettle black, I know) and he seems to have connection with Ottox like Risen. I still don't know if he's a good option for lynch today, though. BM A pretty null read here. He hasn't done much at all, so there's not really much to go off of. I'd say it's possible for him to be scum, but it's just as likely that he's town. Last resort lynch for me MG In the games I've played with MG, I've never been able to clearly read him. I don't know what it is. He seems scummy in this game, though. St.Daniel We've got almost nothing to go on here. What he has posted doesn't look good, and we do for sure that he was lurking, not just AFK. He said he'd try to "get back in the game" but hasn't really done much since. Leaning scummy for me, but not much of a better lynch than BM right now
As for your plan, I don't think it's a bad one. I still think the votes shouldn't start piling up until later so that there's a reason for people to talk, but that's just my opinion. The problem with making connections like you've done is that until a scum is flipped, it's all speculation. It's still possible for scum to be outside your list, I just don't know where. For the time being, those 6 are a good place to start, and I do agree that Ottoxlol is who we should start with.
Ok, if we put Ottoxlol to the side, who exactly is your best scumread and why? I would like your best read AND accompanying case if possible.

Because actually Risen is quite well known for doing dumb and emotional shit, and actually around the deadline with votes very close is a quite plausible time for him to go a bit crazy. Look how emotionally invested he gets into each game and argument. In this case Risen could be 'bad' as you put it because he's all over the place, not because he's a bad player.
I'm not saying what I'm saying IS necessarily the case, but it could very well be the case. Your argument is that there is only one plausible option, which I simply do not accept.

Yes, but that's not a case. That's you thinking one is more likely than the other. THAT IS NOT A CASE.

Yes, your case relies on multiple people being terrible.
Only a terrible scum TEAM would have let the situation that occurred at the end of the day occur.
Risen (or another scum) could have changed their vote MUCH EARLIER.
Your case relies on scum fucking up and not doing so.
Understand?

To answer you: Don't know, don't care. What I know is this. There is no reason for a town Risen to do what he did other than he's terrible. I don't think Risen is terrible. Ask the scum how it ended up happening after the game.
So you think an entire team with RISEN IN IT is just as terrible?
