In fact I'll repost it so people can see:

why aren't you here? Put's downa vote on cora. Says the wagon IS A town lynch while STILL having his vote on cora all along. Like what's the point of this? His initial vote on cora doesn't even say WHY he is lynching cora. It just says he's voting for him but he still wants to lynch VA. After being called out on it he says it was bs to trick people?

##Unvote ##Vote: Corazon
Read my filter for the reasons, I had already pointed some stuff about him out. I also hated his early "get off the hook" post, and tbh, fuck him for wanting to kill me. While you may have listed 1000000000 reasons for cora being mafia in your filter, why did you NOT put a vote down until after my case? In fact, if all your reasons are before my case then my case is the only convincing factor for you to lynch him. Show nested quote +I worry about the Cora wagon. I pointed out some inconsistency in his play myself, but his random vote on me there before he switched is really head scratching if he's mafia. Now his is obviously not going to make much sense to anyone but myself, but given how he's been wanting to kill me and been casually calling me out all game, it seems like a strange vote as it makes it more likely he'll flip AND if he flips mafia he's basically confirming me as town.
You display hesitance that all of your reads up to that point are head scratching from mafia cora but then you also use all of those reasons that you previously mentioned to then vote him? Which is is it? Is he mafia because of them or town because of them? Why even qualify your read with a "this feels off" and then vote him anyway?

Are all these people scum or what?

Do you think arguing with your scum read is useful? I'm pretty sure that's what he was trying to avoid with that post. So why would you just ignore him instead of thinking that could be a possibility?

Grack, why did you take no stance on Cora the entire game despite him being the main wagon, the most voted player, looking scummy and being town?
You even questioned his intentions with Palmar here:

I'll give Palmar some more time to do something useful. You think he's scum though right? Where did I say that You've been insinuating that he is scum/should be lynched. What did you think of his responses and then why did you not portray those feelings to us so as to give us more information on the main lynch candidate?
Also, why did you use a throwaway vote on risen with no explanation:
On February 10 2014 03:44 Grackaroni wrote: Yeah I give up for today. Risen safe lynch; best lynch NA. ##Unvote: VA ##Vote: Risen
but then not push for his lynch, question him or argue with him (seeing as you just stated that arguing with your scum suspect is good)

Also, in regards to your thought process. You stated:

Unfortunately, this isn't alignment indicative of him though. There are some good reasons for him to be scum. + Show Spoiler [filters] +1.He's objectively weird but no one has been interested in discussing him. Like he's gotten a complete free pass. 2. The Cora lynch has too much steam. There are way too many people ok with lynching Cora right now for it to end up being a good lynch. On top of that, Cora reacted to Palmar exactly how I had which should be a good litmus test. 3. Grack has bounced around to 3 different people with completely shitty reasons every time. 4. We get to avoid super awkward situations like happened in LXIV. 5. Grack has more swagger as town than he has as scum. Hell he's voted for himself both times as town (once was for mayor). He's also far more negative as scum than he is as town. It's weird to try and describe, but I'm not seeing any sense of confidence coming out of Grack. Most of his statements this game have been qualified: "I do think it could be" "I might be ok" "But you haven't done anything to try to solve the game?" There's a serious disconnect between these posts and how I read him in his other town games. 6. This is weak, but in his scum games he also uses quotes more than he does as town. It feels like his lack of confidence wants him to pad his filter with extra space. That's the bullet point. Rayn/VE your thoughts. This is the only part I'm going to address. I'm definitely less confident about being correct with reads this game; I don't have anyone I really want to lynch too strongly except maybe Marv but he's actually made himself hard to read by just refusing to chat with me.
If marv was the only person you felt it necessary to address when someone talks to you then why was your throwaway vote on risen and NOT on marv? They both would have meant equally as little but then your vote would be on the person you thought was scum? As well as this you JUST stated that:
If it was a close lynch I would have moved my vote either on to Corazon or on to somebody else depending on the situation. After everything you have said about marv after placing your "safe" vote onto risen why would cora be your chosen candidate if the lynch was any closer??

Marv made himself hard to read so I went with a safe lynch rather than a riskier lynch. I could have voted Marv, but I'm not sold on him either.
It depends on who the lynch candidates were. If it was between Oats and Cora I would have moved to Cora. If it was between Cora and WoS there is definitely a possibility I would have moved it to WoS.
I don't understand. Your risen read came out of nowhere even though people posted reasons why he could be town. You then state that risen is unreadable:
On February 10 2014 10:42 Grackaroni wrote:I don't know if he is scum. There was nobody else I felt strongly about lynching though. Safe as in difficult to read and bad reads as town.
If that's the case why did you differentiate between risen and marv as lynch candidates when marv was the person you had talked more about?
Your WoS read is.... doesn't exist?
The only mention of WoS you have in your filter is:
On February 10 2014 03:53 Grackaroni wrote: I could definitely see Risen doing that as scum. What do you think of WoS, Palmar?
and nothing else. So why would he have been a better candidate than the people that shut you out of discusssion and didn't reply to things that you had stated? Or the person that you voted as a "safe" vote? You had 4 candidates then: WoS, Cora, Risen and Marv?

You haven't mentioned all your candidates then? I don't get it. If you increase suspicion because people don't respond to you talking to them then why don't you move onto your next candidate and try and get a better read on them by talking to them instead of just stating that you have "x" number of candidates and hoping people can read your mind?
Why don't you tell the thread this stuff until you are asked to?

Im response to the wave post after I went to bed. I want people to explain their votes that were unexplained. I don't know anything about someone who unvotes and votes with nothing in their filter saying why. Regardless of whether cora flipped mafia or town this holds true. I wanted people to respond before the flip actually happened because maybe their responses would be more alignment indicative.
For everyone else, wave's long post is really odd. His scum read was koshi but then when koshi "lied" about wave's case wave made that giant post that said nothing other than koshi totes lying and here's why. It was a colossal defence post ment to implicate koshi. He then asked me for conclusions from my questioning about whether people were town or not before nominations occur and it's not our lynch phase.
Both he and grack have almost no mention of cora wagons as far as i remember (grack definitely doesn't after i questioned him). Will post more when I'm back from uni, hold tight.
Marv was town like halfway through day 1 by the way, why did you take so long to notice? He was asking about people, pointing out things and being agreeable with that touch of marv ego assholeishness.

And if you don't know what's scummy about them then you have no hope as a mafia player! One was a safe vote on a guy that wasn't mentioned, another was an unexplained shenanigans and the other one was what looked like someone saying this lynch looks bad, he can't be doing this as scum but voting him anyway?

I have literally looked at amd made him explain everything that didn't make sense, what more is there to say about him other than a conclusion? Why are you saying nobody had talked about him when that is blatantly not true, you even responded to my posts talking about him.
Why point out that i responded to your case really late, i was playing lol when you made it WITH YOU ON TS and went straight to bed afterwards?

I just want to know the nominations.... -.- Feel like this dawn thing is kinda pointless as the optimal play is to NOT mention who you think is town like everyone (including rayn who said he agreed with this) has been doing.
Also, wave, wtf are you doing? You just went through gracks filter and pointed out everything I had already brought to light to then reach.... no conclusion, yet, that was the thing you criticised/questioned me for?
Also your post which has pre-flip associations in it shouldn't at all after your last 2 games:

This is incredibly different from Marv/HF who are both asking people to lynch them so they can pull the trigger themselves. Unless they are bluffing (which applies more to HF than Marv) mafia should never offer themselves as a sacrifice. 1) I have merely pointed out my suspicions on you and referred to you as my preferred lynch target since I was asked of that specific question. 2) If you are scum, there is no reason for scum to shoot you. I am not in need of tempting another townie to get to shoot you, I am just fine doing it myself. I figure it would be best to talk cooperatively among town who they want to keep around for lategame to ensure the best possibilities of winning. As you might have noticed, I am in no rush to make decisions about who to lynch or who to shoot this cycle, neither was I during last cycle. This is also a reason why I'm sad that Prome was the one to take the shot, since I would have preferred him to stay alive later in the game, and had an more unsure read take the shot. @Wave: It's suboptimal play. Why guess if we can have facts? Certainly it might not even become a deciding factor of any sorts, but why take the risk? Why not go for the guaranteed information? Disagree. We have direct control over a lynch, not who gets shot. The shooters can technically do whatever they want despite what they may say, and they may or may not mean they're scum. If we lynch two people who then shoot town, and then game doesn't end either way, then we know one of them was scum--- the only thing that the 'guaranteed' information matters is for association cases, which I have very little faith in lately.
(Shadow Mafia)
I've kidna forgotten about Toad so I dunno where I am on that. Thinking of it now I figure much of our downfall this game has been association so I don't think I want to start looking into waht pairs make sense and what don't.
We REALLY should be lynching on merits alone, and then once we have a flip we can start attempting to associate (but even then I'd lean towards solo analysis).
So why did you start out the game with pre-flip associations in your mind when you know that it hasn't been working out for you and even said you don't want to do it in previous 2 games?
