Everything comes at a price, and you as a Mafia player should be able to understand that. By the way, the reason I am hesitant to give my roleclaim to them is that I Do Not Want potential scum members of the House to see my role. This should go for every townie: If you join The House and a scum member sees your role because of it, you are giving information to the whole scum team.

I want to see it before I decide whether you're worth lynching over House Chezinu. @HiroPro: ignoring me is dumb. I have legitimate concerns about you and House Chezinu and I feel your play is screwing up this game in a way that can only benefit scum (or, as the mods are phrasing it, anti-town). You claim 5th party, which almost by definition is not town. You are also claiming a mysterious board of directors who you are unwilling to talk about, yet are convinced are town. I have a far simpler solution: Chezinu is scum and the board of directors is whoever else is chatting to Hiro in ScumQT. Just another question: how many directors are there on your so-called board of directors? We are House Chezinu, 5th Party. That is all I am permitted to say.

Acceptable members joining obviously furthers this goal. Your claimed win condition is compatible with House Chezinu, 5th Party. Anti-town forces possess killing power which can harm the members of House Chezinu, 5th Party and their removal is beneficial.

"But HiroPro, that means you're a liar and liars should be lynched!" Don't worry, I'll explain to you why I carried out this charade and you'll understand that it was actually beneficial. Because this is a night start, town has an obvious problem. Making reads and cases isn't really something that's done at night, especially with this being a bastard game. Thus, town needs something to spark discussion and force people to take sides and explain themselves. The fictitious House Chezinu applications allowed for such a scenario. People had to voice their opinions on House Chezinu and comment on what others were doing. Additionally, there is a second part of this setup that made this plan useful. Judging by both Bastard Mafia 1 and by the setup information given, it is likely that a large amount of third party roles exist in this game: most of them probably being survivors. Differentiating these survivors from scum will be a real pain, as both groups will probably be lax in scumhunting. I tried to make House Chezinu seem like a safe haven for survivors and third parties in order to figure out who these individuals were. Unfortunately, several people were not very clear about what they were actually doing in thread. If only I could read those applications people might have sent in, lol. Judging by their reactions, I think Nisani201 and KharadBanar might be survivors of some kind. Both of them seemed more concerned about forming an alliance than with actually finding anything out about House Chezinu. It's possible they could be SK or scum also (KB more so than Nisani), but I doubt that either of them is town. I say KB more so than Nisani because KB was very defensive when questioned about his "alliance". And statements like this show us that he's just talking nonsense. I win by eliminating anti-town players like you, so yeah I think we are compatible. By allying with The HOUSE, I essentially eliminate some of the players (both town and scum) from the equation and can concentrate on studying the remaining ones (which should contain both town and scum too, if my calculations are correct.) It was also pretty hilarious to do this lol. Bastard games ftw. Oh and I have no idea what any of this king/monarchist business is MajuGarzett: If you look at MajuGarzett's filter, he's posted several times throughout the game. He's not actually concerned with finding scum, though. He spends almost all of his time asking about what abilities and information you can get from being a member. He doesn't try to determine my alignment; all he's concerned about is what he can gain from joining. On June 17 2012 11:07 MajuGarzett wrote: Well allying such a shady group is weird but there's no real downside to it as the alliance is so far just empty words. I can see why they did it. Honestly I think that the house won't really do anything to help Nisani and KB. The most telling part of MajuGarzett's filter though is where he responds to xsksc. MajuGarzett doesn't try to analyze the behavior of Nisani or KB. All he does is say "Oh, I don't think the house will help them". He's not interested in making a clear statement on what he thinks about House Chezinu (beyond trying to quietly discredit it). He's posting for the sake of posting. MajuGarzett isn't scumhunting; he's only concerned about himself. He's scum. If I die, and you don't read what I said, I'll be annoyed. So don't do that I'm going to get some lunch. So if I'm still alive, I'll be back an in hour. | ||

By knowing more about the house it allows for better reads on anyone who allied with or applied to the house. On the second point by use of extrapolation, we can see that by saying "I can see why they did it" I also meant " I don't find them scummy for wanting an alliance" which is a response to xsksc's question. It wasn't just posting for the sake of posting. Explain this to me. You first say that by learning more about the house, you can make a better read on anyone. But I didn't give out anything really; so what specifically about their behavior makes you say you don't find them scummy? And those two statements are not the same thing: one is a fairly meaningless buddy-buddy statement, while the other is a clear opinion.

For instance - do you know who the King is? The Monarchist Activist? Speculation doesn't count for this one. I promise you, if you decide not to comply with one of the above, you are at risk of being shot. ________________ My goal is simple here: get everyone to post as much solid information as possible. I don't expect to outright catch any scum with this, but I am going to make them post and make them take positions. I hope to generate a lot of information that can be used throughout the game, including information about how people react to this and who decides to participate and when.

Wanting to increase your survival chances is a town trait for people who feel they have a good blue role, especially docs/cops. As for the individual people: Maju hasn't posted a whole lot but I see nothing wrong with what he's said so far. His response to Hiro's accusations made sense, and he seems pretty solid so far. He hasn't set of any alarms on my end anyway. KB on the other hand isn't looking so hot. Apart from the initial stuff with House Chezinu, his response to suspicions has been textbook newb scum, apologetic and non-confrontational. Townies tend to be more agressive against accusations because they KNOW they are innocent, whereas scum tend to try and compensate because they feel inherently guilty. Definitely red flags going off here, one to watch out for. Hm, I didn't think of it like that. Nisani may not be a third party/survivor then. Yea, I agree with you that KB looks really defensive. And he didn't really push his hyaach read at all. talismania, do you want to shoot KB for us? | ||

Third parties would be neutral in this setup; it doesn't matter how many of them are alive as long as we kill everyone who is anti-town. Anti-town will have a clear motivation (to focus the lynch on townies or third parties). Third parties will only care about whatever their objective is and their own life. I think KB and Nisani201 are linked survivors of some kind (if you look at Bastard 1, the survivor roles could win by not only surviving themselves but also having someone else live). This would explain why they are so close together (KB decided to form an alliance with House Chezinu right after Nisani201, while Nisani201 has defended KB in a nonsensical manner) and why the cases they have put forth have been short and never followed up on (they simply don't care who gets lynched). And ultimately I don't see a reason why as scum they would be so open to forming an alliance with House Chezinu. If someone wants to shoot them, go right ahead. They're clearly not helping town. But I think we should be focusing on other targets for our lynch.

He says he called it as trolling but he simply enumerated all the possibilities not definitely opting for either. He also states the intention of being part of a mason circle that anyone can join and is being established on n0 - which means you have no clue about the alignment of the players yet and thus it's very likely that scum join the circle. Technically it's not a mason circle and one is supposed to be weary and cautious upon joining under these particular circumstances but the fact that he takes the words mason circle in his mouth and repeatedly chews it over is scummy imo A town player would see the lack of benefit in this whole endeavor and stfu about it. 2) On June 17 2012 22:55 EchelonTee wrote: I'm not feeling KB quite yet, I'd say 201 is a better lynch.

A couple of third parties and townies because the MA wouldn't be so stupid to join and reveal himself like that and at this point ET must've also come to this conclusion. TL;DR: ET says he wants in on a potentially corrupted to hell mason circle but when the perspective arises to be in a perfectly sanitized pro-town mason circle he changes his mind. 4) projected morale On June 18 2012 00:17 EchelonTee wrote: this game was a lot more fun about 8 pages ago, sad I missed out I've read somewhere that scum always points out the negative aspects is one of those times.

In the beginning of the game he tried to lead the discussion into useless stuff about the way Toad played in LV. He says that he wants to join a mason circle without revealing his alignment. This is scummy; all he wants is to influence others. He speculates that there may not even be mafia in this game: S&B and FourFace are right: this is what mafia want us to think. He talks about fulfilling his town meta by being accused. He's trying to defend himself without actually saying anything or without going after FourFace. This is not town play at all, especially for ET. Look at his filter in Magic:The Gathering Mini Mafia. ET is very aggressive early on, extremely keen on pressuring people, and actually provides reasoning when he calls people suspicious. That is not how he has played this game. ##Vote: EchelonTee | ||

For one, you were verbose and not posting irritating 1-liners. I have read Aperture, but you weren't town and were killed D1. So yeah, start pointing. Also, lets assume you're telling the truth and you haven't read your role PM. We know you're not the MA, because a king was chosen. If we assume the MA is town, that makes you by far the best option for a RNG policy lynch, because the odds of you being town are less than for anybody else. Given that you are ensuring that any read on you is about as useful as a RNG policy lynch on you would be, this is an excellent choice for us D1! Added bonus: we get rid of a confirmed troll, who is clearly not intending to contribute this game. We lynch people who are scum. Drazerk may be a troll but I agree with most of his reads, and he is clearly reading and giving out his opinions. | ||

It's not as though he looks like scum, and the only reason why the word "survivor" even comes up is that the last bastard game was chock full of them. In Holy Roman, when he was accused, he called several other people scum and started voicing his opinion on lynches. He's so scared that he hasn't done anything this game; that suggests he's a survivor. | ||

A tiny bit of looking at the thread would make that even more probable. Now lets go back to the logic: Statements: A = drazerk is town B = deconduo is town C = talismania is town Theory: A & B & ~C Theory is FALSE, so we know: ~(A & B & ~C) = ~A | ~B | C This statement is true if any one of the following is true: ~A = Drazerk is not town ~B = Deconduo is not town C = Talismania is town Because you would already know C, that would make it completely safe for you. If it's still not clear, replace "Talismania is not town" in the checked post with "Pigs can fly". Because pigs can, in fact, not fly, anything else in the post is irrelevant: it will be marked as false. However, this is all academic, because Deconduo derped even more than I thought and we learned NOTHING from the whole ordeal. Yea but ultimately Drazerk and decon both acted townie (I find it really hard to believe that a scum Drazerk would actually risk having a power like that used on something he said). And thus the logical assumption is that talismania is also town. | ||

I didn't want to get stuck in some stupid feud with a third party when I could have been scumhunting. Furthermore, I didn't really see any downside to allying with the House... and no one has pointed one out; people have been saying that this kind of affiliation with it is scummy but I don't really see why that is. Is the DropBear case really only based on the fact that he unvoted KB with weak reasoning and has never mentioned maju??? That's not convincing at all and I think his reaction to your case is genuine and townie. And don't use that connection business when we haven't even seen KB flip...... Between xsksc and KB, I'd definitely prefer lynching KB. KB is really really defensive - just look at the way he reacted to Acrofales's post on DropBear just because he thought it implicated him. He has been talking nonsense the entire game (look back at my post on him at the end of n0 - he said joining House Chezinu was good because it would narrow down the amount of people (both scum and town) he would have to look at. He talked about allying with the HOUSE being good because then they wouldn't interfere in his affairs.... He's not town. ##Unvote Nisani201 ##Vote KharadBanar | ||

Yay! I'm still rereading people's filters but I'd like to get your opinion on DropBear. The way I see it, the cases that people have made on him being scum are based on the fact that he wanted to kill and backed off KB with weak reasoning, claimed vengeful townie, and never really mentioned MajuGarzett. Thing is I don't really agree with the first point at all as he seemed to provide good reasoning when Acrofales asked him (and I thought his original posting on KB even before was fairly clear in that he thought KB was scum for posting lots of contentless posts). I don't see anything crazy about his claim. And the third point is pretty weak in my opinion. And I thought his reaction to Acrofales's pressure was genuinely townie. I'd just like to hear what you personally think about this. And if you have any strong scum reads other than Nisani? | ||

I will claim last - I have a good reason for this. You will have to trust me. The people who need to claim are: ghost_403 hyaach strongandbig xsksc HiroPro xsksc Most of the opinions and reads that xsksc has advocated so far have been those wildly held in the thread: KB and Nisani look scummy, DropBear's claim is weird cause he has no name. Apart from these, there's just not really that much original thoughts or stuff in his filter. The biggest thing about xsksc, though is the way that he interacts with nisani. First, I will show what xsksc voiced about nisani on his own. Then I will talk about the interaction itself. At first, xsksc says that he doesn't like nisani's decision to ally with the House, as not much is known about it. Much later after Maju's death and DB's post, xsksc says that Nisani should be lynched. + Show Spoiler + On June 17 2012 10:50 xsksc wrote: I would like to hear some more opinnions on Nisanis and Kharadbanars haste in allying with an unknown faction, especially this early in the game. Personally, I don't like their decision at all. We have very little information about the House, because honestly, most of HiroPro's posts about it have been flavour and nonsense. It may turn out that HiroPro and his House turn out to be a good resource for town. Until I know more about it, however, I'm staying well clear. On June 19 2012 14:11 xsksc wrote: I gave Nisani the benefit of the doubt earlier, I thought he was just being bad lol. Maju's flip is pretty condemning for him, he looks a lot more likely to be the scum partner than KB does. That's not to say I think KB is town, though. I don't think he's AS likely to bleed "pure scum", as it were. TLDR I agree, Nisani would be a good lynch. Now for the interaction: On June 18 2012 09:49 xsksc wrote: Point number 1 of my post should read fishy and not fish, lol. In response to Nisanis vote - Maybe it's the popular opinion because allying with a completely unknown faction is a pretty bad idea for town? As for my posts being "easy to make", I'm sorry you feel that way, but I disagree. I've voiced my opinnion and encouraged discussion when the thread was dead. I suggest you have a quick read of your own filter, and maybe that will stop you from accusing others of shit contribution. Copy and paste attacks, that's pretty much it. Your easy-to-make argument is completely nonsensical, not to mention hypocritical. On June 18 2012 10:23 xsksc wrote: I don't think you quite got my point there.. You have contributed fuck all, and you are in no position to point that particular flaw out in everyone elses play. The way that xsksc defends himself from Nisani is not townie at all. Townies either explain their own behavior further or show how the other person's argument is flawed. By accusing Nisani of "hypocrisy with copy-paste attacks "and saying "You have contributed fuck all, and you are in no position to point that particular flaw out in everyone elses play." xsksc is trying to make Nisani go away by directly attacking Nisani's credibility. He is making Nisani look bad while defending himself. This is not a town characteristic or town play at all, especially when you consider that later on xsksc says that "he was giving Nisani the benefit of the doubt". These are direct attacks, not "giving benefit of the bout". This is what scum do. Additionally, the points that xsksc advocates about third party being more important to lynch in this game than scum; that is scummy also. ghost needs to be a lot more active. When you are free, please answer my question from earlier. | ||

It's not that third parties matter for the scum win condition; it's that going after third parties give scum valuable town cred and allows them to make it look like they are doing stuff. | ||

Your reaction is not townie. If you were town and the case was bad, then you would say "oh bad case", maybe get annoyed a little, and move on. But instead your response is not only defending yourself, but also painting doubt and suspicion on your accuser without directly calling them mafia. That is a scum tactic. Additionally your response is drastically different from the way that you described it as later "giving Nisani the benefit of the doubt". | ||

This is a direct quote from one of the vets who was in the Wheel of Fortune QT (I don't remember what this person's forum id is, someone who played in Wheel of Fortune probably remembers). "However, when Ace responds, he acts exasperated, and says he doesn't give out all his reads on Day 1, which is obviously not what Bluelightz was asking for, and then asks what scumhunting Bluelightz himself has done. This moves suspicion off of Ace, and onto Bluelightz, while avoiding addressing Bluelightz's concerns, and can intimidate Bluelightz into not pursuing Ace further. I don't see that as a particularly townie way of replying." Everyone please read my case and xsksc's filter. Do not waste discussion just because we are lynching Nisani today. | ||

I was thinking maybe I just misattributed it to Bio instead of someone else, but I can't find what post I was even thinking of. I'm curious as to why that's so important to you? Stuff like that is important. Soft defending someone who flips town is an easy way to gain town cred. If you don't have a reason for it, then I have to wonder how you came to the conclusion that he was town. Judging by hyaach's claim, Nisani is most likely the MA. We have no king - this is why I asked if anyone had been roleblocked. No one responded and Nisani did not answer my question when I asked him if he knew why we have no king. Now judging by his actions, Nisani is most likely a third party, not town. I have no idea what his wincons could be and obviously he's not willing to say. I am Yugi Moto, the cardless survivor. I am linked with strong&big, the Neutral Surviving Balrog. The two of us win if either of us is alive at the end of this game. We have no powers and abilities (we can't even privately communicate) but we know each other's identities. We show up as not anti-town, and do not affect the win conditions of either town or anti-town. The reason why I saved my roleclaim until the end is because if someone else claimed vanilla survivor (no friends, no powers), then I could identify their role as likely being a lie. Also, message to scum/third-party, if you night kill me, you're not thinking, I don't matter for shit. | ||

Being bulletproof, scum can't kill me, so that means I should be playing as pro-town as possible in this game. You don't care. Why's that? Because I'm not bulletproof lol. If someone decides that I'm being too helpful to town, they can kill me. | ||

Town cred is only useful to me to avoid getting either hiro or myself lynched. But if one of us died to the vengeful townie it's exactly as bad for us as one of us getting lynched. Like, I want town to win, I guess, because they're already so far ahead so the game will end faster, and also because scum won the last game I played, which was annoying. But I don't see how risking my life to help town is in line with my win condition. To Acro: I'm afraid of two things. First, that there might be some anti-survivor third party out there with KP, probably ghost, since otherwise it seems weird that there would be a bulletproof survivor and two linked survivors. Second, that scum might decide to be a dick and say "if I'm not going to win neither will you trololol" and kill hiro once I'm dead. Sure it's not the biggest risk, but I really don't see the upside. Neither of us is going to die right now if we do this. Will you be free at the deadline? To get off if Nisani tries to screw us? | ||

But the thing is it makes no sense for scum xsksc to hold his kill, unless he has no ability (in which case his kill will be RBed). So the logical assumption is that anti-town had a SK, a permanent 1-target framer capability, and a rolecop (3 people in total). From a balance standpoint though, that seems pretty broken even with 3 survivors (still leaves 9 townies, some of them with ridiculously powerful abilities: 2 vigis, a cop, a medic, a RB, the phoenix wright business). So probably another anti-town role exists. Judging by Forumite's comments in the Idea Factory thread, a traitor is likely. | ||

As today has developed, he has been acting weirder and weirder. 4F never really convinced me he was town in any way. Ghost has played more coherently. It was actually you who convinced me 4F/ghost was improbable scum. Also, if we lynch ghost and he flips scum then we've proven Hyaach as a pretty townie roleblocker, leaving the road even clearer for an xsksc lynch tomorrow. I am not opposed to killing ghost. My main reason for picking Hiro/SnB is because there is something fishy about their role and until we lynch one of them or the game ends we won't know what it is. I am inquisitive and not above lynching for information Let me go reread ghost's filter, but a switch to ghost does not seem like a bad plan. At worst it'll prove that roleblocking ghost was NOT what stopped the mafia kill from happening. Cool, I guess you guys can have this. ghost_403 has claimed BP survivor and said that since he's BP, it's in his best interest to play pro-town. Thing is, ghost hasn't actually done anything like that this game. He makes a call for Nisani to be shot without ever talking about why he thinks Nisani is scum. He makes "reads" on DropBear and xsksc that just rephrase what other people have already said about them. Additionally, look at how uncomfortable ghost was with providing a concrete opinion on DropBear's alignment. ghost refers multiple times to DropBear as "bad townie or scum", but never actually decides which one it is. + Show Spoiler + On June 21 2012 01:11 ghost_403 wrote: Nisani StrongAndBig EschelonTee Two of my best scum reads are already dead, GJ town.

Take a look at his filter, he's not bringing anything to the town at all. Also, I don't like how he refuses to claim his role's name. Everyone else has, why not him? Very strange.

Killing me doesn't get them any closer to winning the game. I don't count as town for their wincon, as detailed previously. I'm fine with being roleblocked, my problem is that I don't think it will help us find scum. Your plan needs a town DT to actually work, and I haven't seen anything that shows you've thought that out. It's very strange considering the fact that you thought he was lying about his roleclaim to begin with. ghost has claimed that he is bulletproof. So why is it that he's speculating about why scum wouldn't kill him? That scenario should never even cross his mind; it's not just that he's talking about being shot (that would be understable), but he specifically refers to himself dying from a scum shot (something which should not be possible if his claim is true). The differences between what ghost has claimed to be and his actual words and actions in the thread are stark. ghost claimed that he is bulletproof, yet the way he talks suggests exactly the opposite. ghost says that he's a survivor who's interested in helping town as it helps him out too; yet he's done absolutely no scumhunting. | ||
