So this hydra is a target because of inactivity, while Jebus isn't a target because ...inactivity?
I like my vote more than ever.
ferret, opinion on Krabs?

both posts from ~ad

I don't understand what Krabs is doing wrong. He's not lurking, being an arsehole, or any of that crap. He seems to be legitimately trying to help.

Me, on the other hand, may seem to have wolfy behaviour but I've just not been sure what to say.

In post 471, Krab Bucket wrote:@Doctor: What are your reads?

You seem like scum.
Jebus is the easy mislynch.
I'm liking Malcolm for town.
Nero's stuff is worryingly vague but he's towny in general.
ferret is also town.

Krabs is trying too hard to help imo. He's like the scum who tries to be the archetype of town and tries so fucking hard to do it.

Jebus has been posting in thread, while you haven't. His posting style also doesn't seem manufactured.
Also, explain your other thoughts.

if you're going for the split personality type play to justify mistakes, don't.

this post pinged my scumdar

where did I make a mistake?

I am absolutely aware of my posts and how they might be perceived, yet am making them anyway

So you're being silly for silly sake. Why are we not policy lynching this hydra?

GCBC asks where to put vote <--- bad in itself
nero says ferret and someone else

GCBC iso´s them both in 4 minutes
GCBC vote nero for having bad reads

everyone is like "yo, wtf?"

GCBC votes ferret and claims that nero has earned his vote


So... GCBC went from thinking that ferret was a bad vote to a good vote in like... 20 minutes?
He also doesnt specify how nero earned his vote.


Man thats alot of shit.

so its shit to scumhunt?

are you actually surprised that I wasn't invested in my unexplained vote on nero?

~Krabs

your read on me is wrong, your read on nero won't help us today

can you expand on your read on Doctor whatever? I think we are on to something

(I'm not really aware of why people are suspicious of raven, so filling me in there would be good too)

(this post and the last one too were me)

nope!!! Your vote was scummy just like my vote on skull was scummy. Only scum can be scummy.

NERO STAHP THE DOUBLE POSTING!!!

GOOD GOD THAT RESPONSE FROM SVEN. Please be town, if you are scum again I will cry

as for the reasons to why Krabs isn't scum, I didn't see it. I want to see it all in one post in front of me

Raven, at this point not much but I think Esquire might need a little bit of my attention, as does Skull. I need to talk to dad to get a better feel for who is and isn't scum, and once we have a little discussion, I promise to be the player that you know I can be. Same thing for Sven. I had you as a potential suspect, though you have recently gotten better and this is the Raven that I am familiar with so I'm willing to let you go for now.

I am liking Ferret for town too, I want to know why you suspect him. I realize that noobs can be scum, though he doesn't feel like noob scum, but more like noob town who is trying to get accustomed to game.

Kise is catching up

Ferret's reaction has me thinking that he's probably Town. Seemed genuinely confused about the sudden wagon, so either he's legitimately baffled or he's a really good actor.

In post 392, Svenskt Stål wrote:Skull, I have completely ignored you and your wagon this game, if I were to do some ISOing on you and maybee pull up some of your past games what should I be looking for in your play that sudgests that you are town this game?

Well, I don't have much of a meta to speak of. This is only my second game on Mafiascum, and I would not recommend looking up my first game since my play was pretty horrendous there (just ask Nacho).

I've played a few games before coming to this site, though. I've only been Scum twice before, and in both games, I was really paranoid and defensive the entire time because I was so afraid of being caught. If you see me being unreasonably defensive about anything, call me out on it. Aside from that, just see if you notice me acting like I know more than I'm saying. I try to be as transparent as possible because I have a terrible poker face, so if it looks like I know something but I'm keeping it to myself, call me out on that too.

Is that enough to get started?

In post 394, Ravenpaw wrote:Or do you believe that Fuduzn’s wagon had nothing to do with you?

Not intentionally, no. I never jumped on the FuDuzn wagon, nor did I endorse it in any way.

In post 394, Ravenpaw wrote:Also, don’t forget that Fudz would vote you because of the votes he’d gathered.

He did, but we were still in RVS at that point, so I didn't think much of it.

In post 394, Ravenpaw wrote:And this is becoming a little pet peeve of mine in mafia games. I asked you a question, yet someone else deemed it necessary to butt in before you could answer. I wanted your explanation because you were inferring a town read on Fudz because you liked the cut of his jib, that's why I wanted your thoughts. But seeing as Fudz answered before you could, you can now sheep his response, which you just did do (and hey, I don’t blame you).

Okay, I think I see what the problem is here. I thought you were just asking what that figure of speech meant, but you were actually asking why I said it, right? If that's the case, I apologize for misunderstanding the question.

When I said that I liked the cut of his jib, I was just saying that I liked FuDuzn as a person. That's all. It was not indicative of whether I thought he was Town or Scum at the time.

In post 394, Ravenpaw wrote:No, it’s called keeping an open mind, which is essential for mafia games.
Fun fact: my introduction to the delightful world of mafia games actually came from a WWE themed game, and scum won that. The relevant point here is that the last mafia member was John Cena, which everyone had written him off as “oh he’s Cena, of course he’s town”. So it’s not a sure thing to write off facey faces as obvious town (or heely heels as obvious scum).
That’s why I brought it up. Do you see the point I was trying to get across to Esquire?

I do, yes. Thank you for clarifying.

In post 394, Ravenpaw wrote:This reads list is slightly weird because it really feels like you should be voting for me, not Nero. Why the hesitation to get on my wagon Skull?

I don't know if "hesitation" is the right word. I only have one vote, so I can't very well vote for all four of you at once, can I?

Having said that, this current conversation is beginning to diminish my Scum read of you. If you really are Scum, I imagine you'd be more likely to converse with the people on your wagon rather than carry on a conversation with somebody who isn't on your wagon and hasn't even voted for you yet. If you're Town, keep it up. If you're Scum,

In post 430, Krab Bucket wrote:The point of me keeping it quiet is so I can bait people pushing for an easy lynch. Then I can spring the trap by quoting that post.

This..."trap" of yours has one glaring flaw: it can catch both Town and Scum indiscriminately. How do you intend to tell the difference between the players who have fallen for your masterful mental machinations?

Fuzzyman, I want to hear your opinion/read of Krab Bucket, please.

In post 415, Nero Cain wrote:Raven: I don't really care for any of Goats 5 posts he was not posting here but still playing in his other gamea. Put your vote on him and lets see what he does.

If you read the game you're referring to, it's pretty damned evident I was phone posting and trying to prevent the town from doing something abysmally stupid.

For those who have commented on my slacking, I do that a lot on D1. The manic and outrageous finger-pointing and stick-poking wears on me, so, admittedly...I let others do it. I like to have fun on D1. I said I will analyze and post tomorrow. And I will.

FWIW, my early read on Nero is town.

My early read on GCBC is scum.

Why are the cops scum? they are null on my radar

I don't really have any scumreads for now, so I will make a vote in my next post for the person with the post longest ago.

Squidward has been prodded so there's no point, so zachattack is the vote for me to get people talking.

What? To get people talking? This has been a pretty active game, albeit there are a few lurkers(myself somewhat included), but how does voting someone(who also was prodded) generate more activity?

Plus, no scum reads?

Ferret, how about if you had to vig someone right now......who would it be? Besides Squid or Zach. And God help you if you name the person who has a post that was third from the longest ago.

I don't see how you can say that about me when, thus far, I've said more or less nothing.
