Small selection. Disclaimer: to varying degrees; some are barely there while others show it very strongly. Disclaimer2, yes I know not all posts are from one head, but I don't read individual heads as town that much; they blend together in my mind, and you asked for the ragey I see; seeing ragey from a partner and having you blend together means I see the ragey as being from you, if that makes sense.(I worked in reverse-chronological order.) Again, not entirety of them and not all of these are equal. Some barely there at all, some blatantly ragey.Spoiler:- CarbonFiber

My apologies for the lack of response. I have been following along, rest assured. I did not really have new contributions to add. But let me remind you all once again of what I am thinking.
As said before personally, I think MastinSSK has an equal chance to be scum just as much as being town. I did say I was not going to vote him (nor Titan), but I feel we all must reach a decision. The amount of discussion going on, while having some substance, does not really point towards a certain direction (if you feel there is something we are leading towards to, please tell me). This isn't for me, but for the rest of you in the game, I feel people are waiting for the chance to see who will make the first move. The debate between Mastin and Titan has been no doubt been the highlight of the day, and perhaps, some of you are mentally locked that one of them has to be lynched in order to settle this. Then let me advance this discussion now.
As Mastin has mentioned before, he himself has stated that this is a rare case where role abilities (particularly investigative abilities) should be used on him or Titan in order to determine their alignments while keeping both of them alive. There are obviously pros and cons to this. But I won't elaborate on that. The main point is, do all of you feel this is the method to take? Or do you want to lynch one of them now to determine their alignment and follow our personal deductions based on the results? State your stance regarding this matter, and we can progress accordingly. This is not to say these are the only two choices: if you feel there is someone we should look towards to, tell us who. There is no diddly-daddling now.- CarbonFiber

Clyton, I don't think anyone believes at this point that Titan is scum. I am not even sure how Titan figures into FT's question about whether anyone still thinks MastinSSK is scum. Nobody has claimed that it was a dichotomy of one scum among {Titan, MastinSSK}. One's townflip has absolutely no bearing on the other. I am not even sure why you bothered mentioning that you won't vote Titan. No one is asking you to nor is a Titan lynch even on the table. Also, why respond to a question of "Mastin is scum" with "I will vote neither Titan nor Mastin." It is also us and MastinSSK who are both scumreading each other now with Titan seemingly still solidifying their reads. Nobody is mentally locked into an idea that one of them ought to be lynched. Investigative abilities can be used on any player in the game. It would beabsurdto use them on Titan as they quite obviously town. There is also no reason to specifically keep both of Mastin or Titan alive over any other player in the game. I don't want to lynch "one of them." Where are you even getting this? I want to lynch Mastin. On the off-chance he flips town, Titan is still obvtown. But FT and I are both quite certain that he won't.

I am merely restating some context of my thinking process thus far, regardless if it does not apply to the current thought process of the general population. Is it merely your habit for you to over-analyze every single statement? I ask because it is only fair that I ask; this is such the nature of my posting habit I am telling you: my posts are along the lines of storytell, debriefing, etc. And I ask because you still have some interest in figuring me out, something that I will not mind continuing the side discussion if you believe it will benefit you.In post 584, CarbonFiber wrote:Clyton, I don't think anyone believes at this point that Titan is scum.

And while I can completely deconstruct your post and list out all my arguments, clarify my words and make hypotheses based on that, I am sure it will be such a chore and a bore to those unfortunate to read it.
Onto the dilemma at hand, you want to lynch Mastin, and that is fair enough. I will definitely rethink this action and see if it is worth the vote. I will also have to hear Mastin's defense. Of course, while you are scumreading Mastin, it is appropriate that you should be scumread too by me. Why do you delay your vote on Mastin? Are you not entirely convinced he is scum? Is there still some matters you want to figure out?- Clyton

Also, I don't know what you are trying to get at with me, but if you read my earlier post as ISO, then I would understand why you typed such things into your post. I am sure a capable player such as yourself would have immediately known I am chainlinking posts with my previous posts in the game to ensure my thought process is continuous and consistent, and that everyone else may see that.- CarbonFiber

I definitely think having you explain your stances will help me get a read on you while letting me see where you are coming from. I think we've been viewing the game very differently. I think Mastin is scum and so want him lynched. I don't see the connection between him and Titan. They've argued just like any other players in the game. While I agree that their debate was intense, it was also short lived and there have been several other points of discussion in the thread. I am not seeing Mastin and Titan as a package deal or alternative choices because they've had an argument. Is it usual from your past games for players to choose between two sides of a major debate and have it as a highlight of a day? Also, can you explain why us scumreading Mastin would cause you to scumread us? This also ties into me wondering if you usually scumread both sides in a debate or if that's how you play the game.
I didn't initially vote because I was not certain enough that that was the way we want to go. I am usually slow to vote. When FT checked the thread, he emphatically agreed that Mastin was scum and placed a vote. I've been happy with our vote since. I am as convinced as I can be at this point. I am rarely this confident in my reads.

I mean, if you play at a site where people don't generally read others based on the tone of their posts, I can sort of understand why are still considering the possibility of Titan being scum. I've been told by Nacho once that he was playing with Tammy in an offsite game and she garnered loads of suspicion because the MTGS players weren't reading her based on her genuineness which is usually what most established players on mafiascum look for. But that's all secondhand, will wait for Nacho to comment on that. But if your scumhunting differs from most others, you may have different reads from people who play more here and perhaps strengths in different areas.
The site you linked had people almost random-voting D1 and didn't really have lots of good reasons for voting D2. Yet, here you are very thorough in meticulous in your analysis. Where did you pick up the skill to post that way and was there any in-between site you played at? How do you go from playing on a site with a lack of analysis to the extreme detail that you went into earlier?

Hmmm, perhaps scumreadding isn't the right term when I said it to you, but I will explain to all my general approach.In post 587, CarbonFiber wrote:I definitely think having you explain your stances will help me get a read on you while letting me see where you are coming from.

You are all individual people (even Hydras). I don't care of your alignment. I analyze your posts, make inferences and deductions, and spark discussion for clarification and progress. Who am I to say "this person is Town or Scum?" Even the system will not convince me. I am sure we all have came across roles with different sanities and factions consisting of multiple alignments. Nothing is 100% confirmed to me until adequate information is revealed upon death or the end of the game. I make decisions based on the most probable choice for scum to show up or for the good of the whole.
It happens in past games in regards to your questions, but that is not to say it marks the final point of decision for the day to end. I tend to look elsewhere for now, but should the overall majority decide a need to settle the matter, then I will gladly comply.
To be fair, some people have expressed a scumread on you. Thus, this ties in to what the people are thinking now, and is something that I should consider, even when I do not want to go into that area at the moment.
If you want some help in getting a read out of me, here's a suggestion: do not ISO any of my posts. From past experience, people give an inaccurate read of me because they are focusing on my content out of context and are therefore, looking at the wrong areas or misinterpreting my content.- Clyton

I am not particular fond of going through tonal analysis. I see posts through logic, not emotions. Perhaps this is why some of you are not accurately getting good reads from me, because you must adapt. I am an entirely different player here compared to what you would typically find at this site. If you post with emotions, and look for emotions in other people's posts (like what Mastin did), then it won't work on me. You must rid yourself of terms like "genuineness" and "feelings" when confronting me if we are to cooperate effectively for the same goals. But don't misunderstand, people at the off-site I played at are very vocal and emotional. This is merely a case of me being different.In post 588, CarbonFiber wrote:I mean, if you play at a site where people don't generally read others based on the tone of their posts, I can sort of understand why are still considering the possibility of Titan being scum.

There is no in-between site I played at. And while you are looking at a particular game, it does not contain everything of the Mafia playerbase of that site. There are some veterans there that are at a skill level around myself and can easily blend in to be a skilled player with the skilled players of this site. But generally, I have different outlooks then what regular Mafia players would normally have.- The Fox and the Hound

I am back!! And I'll try my best to make it for good.
What were Nacho's thoughts of us here? (Sorry to be focusing on Nacho's read and not yours, but there is a reason for it).In post 405, Kagura wrote:Nacho just told me that he's been posting early reads in our old Hydra QT from Legend of Zelda and I had no idea
He's got Tammy early town from (paraphrasing) genuine vesperia frustration + early reaching to/sorting of notscience head
LB/MastinSSK/RG are all early town reads for him too and I don't object to any of them (although I might still call LB null).
-b
p-edit: why did you use the term 'that was notthepost I would have called you town for' (emphasis mine) as if you knew beforehand there was going to be one (but not necessarily which one).
What was so town about Tammy after you voted that wasn't there before you did?In post 433, Rancid Broderick Drake wrote:I remember grilling Tammy
She was in quite the fright
I assume she towned it up
Which was the goal of the night
unvote
I will say (and I think I've said before) that I actually like the idea of labeling a pressure vote as a 'pressure vote' because then if it's scum they know they're being scrutinised and then they freak out and WAMBAMJAM scum caught! (Well it might not work exactly like that but you get the idea).
This is where I'm at right now too. :/In post 532, Titan wrote:Hmmm if I'm reading something right with mastin, I don't know if I suspect them more OR if I should go lol cabd game could be town. By play they're scum, but there's a tiny blip that makes me wonder when he hints about his role.
I will buddy you until you bleed!!In post 540, Titan wrote:so which of the ceph/DV hydra is doing the super hardcore buddying?
CarbonFiber, what do you think of the softclaiming and what it suggests regarding mastinSSK's alignment? I haven't gotten the chance to discuss this with Copper, and at first I just dismissed it as not incredibly alignment-relevant, but it's gotten to the point where I think it could be quite excessive for scum. I know that I am more inclined to excessively hint at my role as town, for example. It's possible I won't get the chance to do a proper live correspondence (beyond a few minutes at a time) with Ceph for a while, so here's what I said in our QT after ISOing MastinSSK the night I caught up (I'm not going to make it more refined though as I'm probably not even pushing a vote here):
-I dont believe mastin's read of my post. Combine this with her thing with Titan (plus the way she backs down on the read seems incredibly sleazy to me, but I might try explaining that better later).
-As I said, the whole not trusting Nacho thing is ridiculous and has no good reason behind it.
-Implying that we're scum with Titan is ridiculous also? I might expect it from someone new but I don't think it's an accepted thing that scum buddy together that much, so I think they're just sore.
-215 is just 'oh look we're thinking this through we're so town' crap. 218 too.
-I think the crumbing is too showy.
-228 too!!!
-And the vote flipping
In general, I think there is such a 'look how town I am!' quality to many of their posts that I actually have a pretty passionate scumread on them. Their role stuff does make me cautious though, so I'd like to see what else they post and get their claim.
~~
But again, as I said, I'm not sure if I want their claim now, and while Ceph didn't disagree with my mastinSSK thoughts, he didn't exactly suggest lynching them either, so I'm not exactly sure what he thinks right now.
So yeah, that's where my thoughts are at anyway (nothing MastinSSK has posted since then has changed much except the more enthusiastic softclaiming). Agreements/disagreements would be much appreciated.- Rancid Broderick Drake

Clyton, I get the general idea of your playstyle. I'll wait to see more content from you.
DV, I don't think soft-claiming is alignment indicative either. I am fairly sure everyone has some sort of a role and that this is a role madness game like Cabd's previous Tales game. If MastinSSK is scum and intends to fake-claim or claim his real role and look town, he'd soft-claim as much as needed to look as town as he can. Possibly in a game which is not a uPick, and not a Cabd game, I'd wonder if it makes that player town. The last Tales game was lost because players believed Orcinus's fake claim. Everyone is probably going to have some sort of role and a claim isn't hugely alignment indicative. I am going by his play and I think his reads are fabricated. I'd like to hear more of your's and Cephrir's thoughts on his actual play.
Rancid, I am null on the "look at how town I am type" posts and am not scumreading MastinSSK for it. I think he is scum because his reads look fake and opportunistic.

the game we played together I didn't get a whole lot of suspicion, except scum did "suspect" me. Maybe he was talking about the game I replaced in for regfan? He had quite a bit of suspicion on him, and then I did (and I actually kept my cool there!) but I was the cop and scum tried to get me lynched. But yeah, it was weird how much suspicion I generated - although I correctly nailed two out of three scum immediately upon replacing in AND investigated correctly two nights in a row, stupid godfathers be damned! - and empire and regfan were rooting for me getting lynched because they're mean!In post 588, CarbonFiber wrote:I mean, if you play at a site where people don't generally read others based on the tone of their posts, I can sort of understand why are still considering the possibility of Titan being scum.
