In post 1111, Chara wrote:i agree somewhat, that the Creature lynch is not as informative as it could be. it's like lynching a cop guilty. i don't think anyone would be arguing for leaving a guilty alive. perhaps it's different for players like Titus who don't want to rely on meta or players who just don't know him.
i am reminded of the "town winrates go down when scum is lynched day 1" theory. it's interesting.
would still rather lynch essentially confirmed scum. seeing a scum role would be useful to tell us about the setup and remove a night factor. i've waited to lynch scum Creature before on the insistence of other players and it didn't really help anything because he doesn't post.
i guess leaving him alive would be fine if a vig shoots him.
posts like this are the reason I townread Chara so goddamn hard. We have the -exact- same thought process for this.
In post 3494, Shaziro wrote:Ok, I think I support a massclaim now tbh, but I'll go ahead and claim anyhow because NKA may just be useful here.
I'm Japan, hence my first post in this game starting with a haiku, and I have Bushido. I'm a vig. I shot Dunker, and I shot Kokichi.
Interesting so my theory was correct. Now let’s take a look at the Kokichi read at the end of day two to see if it is supportive of an SK stance or a town stance or a mafia gambiting stance.
If we assume Shaziro is an unlimited shot SK/vig then we know mafia tried to kill Kokichi as well.
If we assume Shaziro mafia then he is trying to buy time with the vig claim. When he is forced to continually claim shots and if the other team was eliminated Shaziro would be policied unless two kills show up when one team is gone.
Therefore Shaziro if mafia gambiting is not with Creature/Dunker as that would be suicide. So Shaziro scum with Varsoon,SK, and town vig (one shot or unlimited) are the only possibilities:
In post 3163, Kokichi Oma wrote:Good. Now you have a full day to think of a believable claim and reason as to why you used a watcher shot on the clear yesterday and not tonight.
You're poisoning the well against him now. Gross.
Here's a direct quote which I can be bothered to get because it's recent. Beyond that, it's a mix of the seemingly purposeful spearing of attempts to get information, the constant insistence that they be World Congress leader, the attempts to powerlynch Gamma despite Gamma (at least to me) being obviously town, and their smug attitude towards votes on them which smacks of scum trying to convince town that voting them won't do anything so don't bother.
TL;DR they've been scummy as shit all game both in action and in my gutread on them, I'd be happy to see them flip.
Wow pushing on scum makes me scum. Who knew
So looking back at Kokichi’s last posts they had Gamma and Action Dan and Shaziro in their last posts. Action Dan flipped town so I think
VOTE: Gamma Emerald
while I finish my reading is the way to go.

OtM I was strong townreading your slot thanks to Titus and I still do so now, but please do summarize your reads and catchup once you're done, because it's all over the place and I can't make much sense of the fragments.

So far I am at
Joey is town due to I don’t see any partners for him
Gamma is probably scum due to NKA
Shaziro is probably SK or vig very little/no chance mafia fake claim.
And I used to do walls. No one ever reads them, calls them an incoherent mess, and then completely disregards then asks me for my reads in which I point them to what I do.
I find it easier and more transparent to rapid post catch ups.
Seer hunt Clear or RVS vote clear is usually a thing so Gamma, if scum, is likely with Varsoon. Especially given how Creature lurksacs as scum so unlikely Creature and Gamma are partners.

It keeps the WL and 2nd runner up at least in town hands (if we have half decent reads, its not hard to find 4-5 obvious town slot in a 20p setup)
This is a 100% horrible idea.
This is what Thing Mafia did.
I pointed out scum in town block. Was ignored.
This is a good way to funnel things in world congress to the most liked players on site or those who play scum good.
Instead let’s rationally assess and figure out what to do each day.

And this is why you don’t town block and then distribute based on said block.
Dunk is confirmed mafia and Shaziro could be SK.
Just stawp it.

This makes sense
We need a list:
Who has gotten religious and who hasn’t? And do we know what religion does yet?

Gotta go for now but a summary of claims and religions/world Congress stuffs would be super helpful if it exists.

Yeah so far Mark is basically rehashing things already said.
I get why he doesn't want to post walls. But this post by post thing doesn't work. Read everything again and make notes if a post comes up that changes or negates or replaces a note you previously made or you find someone saying the exact same thing then you don't have to post it at all.
I had a game recently finish where the person catching up voted for a dead player as they were catching up and couldn't finish their catch up in time to do anything meaninful because a wagon got hammered.
At least he seems to be a fast reader.
Mark once you finish -
What do you think about the idea that 1 out of the 3 claimed religion spreaders is scum?
How do you read gamma / klazam / joda ?
Independent from the religion claim how do you read a50 / pidgey / marshy?
Do you know anything about your predecessor's meta?
Name 2-3 people you'd suggest as a vig target for shaz.
Thanks
Also anybody else who hasn't shared an opinion on these same points please do.
I think shaz should shoot within {klazam, ceasar, kiana, any religion spreader}
I think we should lynch within {klazam, ceasar, mark (pending catchup)}

i dont want to be a dick otm but almost everything you just said was already addressed and most of your reaction to previous post are now obsolete. Im still okay with the reaction-catching up thingy, its just that with a 160 pages long game its not as effective

it slightly irritates me that ppl says they read my iso yet fail to open my spoiler tags about my reads
The gamma being non-red is something that i brought up the moment d2 started, the shaz being a vig OR SK is something that has been in my read list the moment shaz claimed, the theory about 2 religion spreader not being in the same team has also been there in my reads etc.

@Elbirn about Brass: I disliked most of his content, its especially pretty underwhelming compared to the rest of the table. That being said, my mind changed since i made that vote because he's obviously and very heavily softing that his behavior is explained by his role which IMO is not something i think scum just does. He also had that attitude since the very first post so this is coherent with his posting.
Also inb4 anyone try to push that i am fishing for claims, Brass implied something about his role easily 4-5 times since the beginning of the game, if you didn't notice yet then you are just not paying attention, me saying that in this post doesn't help scum as much as it helps town give the guy some space.
Dear Prime Minister of Stars,
If you feel the RP was stopping you from responding immediately at this point in time, and not the others what caused your stop? I wonder who or what was being pushed at that time. And why did you feel the need to respond immediately? (Yes I am a hyperposter
as well
I am
not
saying hyperposting is scummy. I am saying I need to ascertain the root cause)
This is what I call a “significant event”. Anything that causes yourself or someone else to make a playstyle change or a change in reads is a significant event. Those need to address the why.
Sincerely,
I fucking hate this RP and doing this to make a point
The moment i stopped the RP was the moment where i needed to express my thoughts more clearly because the game got more serious, it was about the end of RVS/trolling. Your question is pretty darn redundant as well
"If you feel the RP was stopping you from responding immediately at this point in time, and not the others what caused your stop?"
Because the moment i stopped the RP was exactly the moment where i felt that my RP was hindering my play enough that it was justified i stopped rp'ing

Because I am not “reading” in the traditional sense.
With a game of this magnitude it is impossible if I want to post anything resembling content by EOD
Instead I look for differences.
Oh which your drop of RP was a significant event.
Once significant events are found, combine with known facts, then ascertain the most likely scenario.

This is good for the resolutions but looking for claims.
@Chara I am aware you said Joey and that is where I started I just found a significant event that needed to be addressed. Finding such helped me to establish likely worlds and progress from there and let’s me be helpful without having to wait overnight to do so.
Yes I could and will take the traditional “reading” overnight but that is literally 4000 posts. 1000 (roughly) of the people you suggested before. I always do catch ups like this and see 0% reason to change that.
Pedit: Then with your style I don’t post til tomorrow Joey. I heat map. It’s what I do. I found an important heat source and explored it. That helps me get more reads and integrate seeing how people respond to the most likely world.
I intentionally did not open that because it’s reads and wouldn’t have therefore been a significant event. But if you assert that is all factual that is a significant event.
