Why is that? What about my post feels off to you?In post 46, Saudade wrote:

I'm back on the site after a few years away.

VOTE: Saudade
Additionally, care to explain what the logic behind your claim (assuming it's true) is?- Riabi

I don't think he's a mason. I'm legitimately trying to figure out what the logic behind making that claim so early is.In post 56, Battle Mage wrote:
Indeed, based on post 48, Riabi apparently still thinks Saudade may actually be a mason, and is still voting for him.
On that note, I've found at least one game where he did the same thing, and was indeed a mason, and while he won that game, his claim didn't seem to help his side. So, I'm looking for insight into the thought process.- Riabi

Maybe there isn't any other reason. This is why I'm asking. I'm trying to figure out if the meta has changed on this site such that a claim like that makes sense.In post 71, Churros wrote: Riabi why you think there's any reason other than as a joke for Saudade making that early claim?
The tone of your question seems to suggest that you don't feel there is a good reason to make such a claim. Is this correct?- Riabi

Because if he is town, it seems like a dumb thing to say.In post 82, Luca Blight wrote:Although I’d like to know why he voted Saudade when he seemed entirely unsure how to take the claim.
Jesus this site is slow recently btw.
My vote is currently staying on him because he appears to be avoiding direct questions about what he's doing, and I think that's anti-town.- Riabi

More or less. I think I'd use 'unhelpful' rather than 'bad', however.In post 95, Luca Blight wrote:

What is there to interact with? His argument against me is that I was the third vote on what he called a shitwagon, and then later stated that that vote was awkward without posting any reasoning about why he thinks that. That's super weak.In post 117, Zantetsu wrote: Also Riabi - Norwegian is not only voting you, he's actively encouraging others to vote you. You have not even interacted with him. Why not?
Other than that, he's mostly made a bunch of off-topic posts about a game that he doesn't name and churros. There's not really much to say to all that.- Riabi

I'm not sure I agree with you Norwe, mostly because, I think profii is right in that post. It wouldn't make a lot of sense for him to do that as scum.In post 136, NorwegianboyEE wrote:I took a look at Profii's ISO in response to Luca and this caught my eye.
Isn't this a bit overly self-concious? Going with the "If i was scum i would..." conjecture already?In post 85, profii wrote:Also, if I was scum counter claiming and Saudade flips town mason, then I get lynched straight after, granted that would give scum a couple of night kills, but it means the game would just end up at 2v9 so it makes no sense for me as scum to do that.
That said, Luca's argument that he's half-assing this game does hold water for me, and if he's got more, it would be nice to see it.- Riabi

Really? Why? At first, I was asking about the site meta. I'm not going to do the literal hours it would take to investigate something like a site meta when I could just ask y'all who, presumably, are far more up on the current site meta. Whereas it takes about 20 seconds to scroll through one page of post and count how many folks posted on that page.In post 141, Battle Mage wrote: I find it a little hard to believe Riabi-town, newly returning to the site, was not really engaged in thinking through the mason-claim, but went to the trouble of counting the people who posted on a page to work out who Churros suspects.
You really haven't posted that much. Some of what you posted looks town-ish in iso, some of what you've posted looks scum-ish in iso. None of it gives me any strong reads yet, so, you're null for me. Is it really so strange to you that I would null read someone so early in the game?In post 141, Battle Mage wrote:

Yeah, this mounting argument against Proffi is pretty damn compelling in my mind, and scanning through the game Mage mentioned here... I have to agree, this doesn't look like the same person.In post 200, Battle Mage wrote:Profii notes
In short, I'm pretty convinced by Luca's decimation of Proffi. His early posts were very friendly and generous on the town-reads. Voted for me because my join date (2007) indicated I was new. No hint of any suspicion of anyone until the heat got turned up - every other post had been defensive and trying to avert suspicion. From post 150, appears he has basically given up, which seems really premature. If he is scum, certain he is being bussed hard, otherwise he'd have a bit more fight.
I took the bait in proffi's post 195 and read a game in which he was town (non-mason) - Mini Normal 2107.
Much more engaged in scumhunting from the outset, obviously thinking about behaviour of other players, no hesitation in throwing shade, and trying to join the dots between everybody. Conspicuous pro-town behaviour. Also interesting is a bit later in game, when he gets some heat (like here) - he eventually does become defensive like here, but it isn't immediate and instinctive, and he resists for a while because (as he explains) he doesn't want to distract from his own genuine scumhunting by just getting into a debate with people who suspect him.
Also I have to share this from Proffi in Mini Normal 2121:
"I dont like when people sit on day 1 and complain that they cant find anything scummy as it's usually scum being incapable of faking a read."
UNVOTE: Saudade Not because my read has changed here, I still think he should be lynched. But, with all the evidence against Profii, I feel like the right move is to

I don't believe I ever said that... in fact, I'm certain I didn't. If you'd actually read what I'd said, you'd know that I think you're deadweight and if the case against Profii wasn't as solid as it was, I'd still be pushing to lynch your ass.

I had you as leaning town until this post. Isn't the entire point of the game to discuss who we have suspicions of and why? If you were to place all the players in this game on a spectrum from for-sure-scum to for-sure-town, can you tell us who would be closest to for-sure-scum, even if they aren't very close?In post 311, Zantetsu wrote:
OK well the answer is, I am not entirely sure. There are 10 other players in the game I could focus on besides profii and Una and I expect to change my focus frequently going forward. Furthermore, if I have suspicions of players it is hardly to my benefit to pre-state them as you are requesting I do and if you think I am town I don't even see why you would want me to do that. At this point I have a town read on you but I think you have a scum read on me.In post 310, NorwegianboyEE wrote:

It's not actually inconsistent. I think he's anti-town, and that's enough reason in my book to lynch someone early, regardless of alignment. That said, that doesn't mean I won't also vote to lynch someone I find worse/more scummy.In post 452, Churros wrote:

I recommend to include Riabi on the list as well, his Saudade read isn't consistent, it kinda fluctuates from "must lynch" to "I want him to talk" with no reason.- Riabi

I don't agree that all my posts are noncommittal, but, asking for a reads list is a fair question --In post 561, Zantetsu wrote: Riabi you've been popping in with very noncommittal statements all game.
You need to post a reads list and give some real original thoughts for your reads.
Likely town
Zantetsu - Seems like he's genuinely trying to solve the game, asks what I think are good questions.
BM - He seems antagonistic, but, to me it seems like he's trying to get reactions in an effort to figure out who's getting defensive.
Lean Town
72offsuit - Like many others, not a lot of content, but, what is there is quality, and seems to actually be contributing to the game.
Luca - Appears to be trying to figure the game out as well.
Null
Looker - Not much content, clearly not trying to actually find scum. Can't tell though if that's because they are actually scum, or just lazy.
Egix - Same as looker
Saudade - Who knows with this guy? He's either lazy, scum, or a troll who's just here to annoy. I can't tell.
Lean scum
Churros - Sure, he's posted a lot, but again, I think he might be trying too hard. I don't like that he came back to the game after a delay and appears to have read/commented on every post as he read them, rather than to absorb everything in context before sharing his thoughts. In my experience, very rarely is scum found in a single post, but, it's found in an entire body of work, and when you have the advantage of seeing several pages of posts at once, I think it's prudent to look at everything before posting. Sure, this might be a style thing, but, considering that this seems to have led to at least a couple mistakes, it feels like this is scum trying to look town.
Una - For as much as I don't agree with everything Churros posted, his case against Una seems sound.
Norweggian - For reasons discussed earlier
Likely scum
Anotora - their ISO is just weak, very little content in there, it feel like they're trying to slip under the radar as much as possible.
Profii - He went on a streak of decent/town looking posts for a bit after he got waggoned, but I still don't buy it. I think that was him trying REAL HARD to not get lynched, because his lynch would mean 33% of his team is dead.- Riabi

I'm referring to posts like 91 96 and 151. Yeah, they're old, and he's not done much in a while, but, as I've stated already, I don't find post frequency, in and of itself, to be alignment indicitave.In post 609, Zantetsu wrote:

Looker - Not much content, clearly not trying to actually find scum. Can't tell though if that's because they are actually scum, or just lazy.
And here's a perfect example of what I mean, you're voting Anotora based on a post that has no reasoning behind it, and doing so without any reasoning of your own.In post 666, Looker wrote:

Anotora - their ISO is just weak, very little content in there, it feel like they're trying to slip under the radar as much as possible.
Profii - He went on a streak of decent/town looking posts for a bit after he got waggoned, but I still don't buy it. I think that was him trying REAL HARD to not get lynched, because his lynch would mean 33% of his team is dead.

Agreed, and I think this kind of puts us in a holding pattern for the mod to confirm whether or not there was an error, doesn't it?In post 741, NorwegianboyEE wrote:If Zantetsu is scum as Battle Mage claims, it raises the possibility that he is trying to redirect our attention from one of Luca/Una.

Norwe does make a good point, Im not seeing a lot of upside from a fake claim from BM at this point....
That said, I definitely bumped on the post when I read it, and something about it definitely feels off.
BM, is there any chance you have any corroborating evidence? Like, any chance you breadcrumbed your role or anything like that?- Riabi

I do think it's a valid question, and in a game where all scum players are still alive, I think the idea of only the person who's under the most suspicion being the only one to have to answer questions is silly. Town should be trying to find all scum simultaneously.In post 777, NorwegianboyEE wrote:

Gives me some pause. Norwe is pushing REALLY hard to lynch Zan now, and Norwe, while your case against him isn't bad, I also don't think it justifies a turbo lynch right now, and it's certainly not air tight.Luca Blight wrote:If we lynch Zant and then ‘turbo-lynch’ me, then the game is nearly lost for Town.
Hell, I believe there are still players in this game who've not posted in D2, aren't there?

UNVOTE: Looker
Still completely useless, IMO, but, without a doubt not the scummiest player today.
Currently, I'm flip flopping in my head about whether or not Norwe or Zan is the best lynch today. I think the case against Zan has been well stated, and doesn't need repeating here. Norwegian just seems too eager to move quickly today, and I wonder if that's not just scum finding a good (fake) case against a townie and trying to get a fast lynch going before it can be too closely examined. I look forward to hearing from Zan again, as well as the others who haven't posted today.- Riabi

I didn't say I believe Zan is town, at least, not in day 2. But, I'm also not certain he's scum, at least, not as certain as you seem to be.In post 978, NorwegianboyEE wrote:

One curiousity regarding you, apparently if you believe Zantetsu is town then your natural next step is lynching me? Why? Battle Mage made the claim. Why would you lynch a suspected teammate over who would be from your POV, the actual scum?
And I guess that's what I'm getting at with my belief that you're going too fast. I'm not 100% certain he's scum, and we literally have not even heard from everyone in Day 2. Maybe there's something we're missing, maybe there's a counter claim from one of the slots that we've not heard from that could throw a wrench into everything. So, I don't understand why you're rushing so much under those circumstances. There's no need in my mind for town to not wait a few days and make sure we have all the info.
While I'm not saying this is the case, let's assume we're wrong about Zan for a moment. It's possible in that case that BM is still town and just making a bad read, and if that's what's going on, Norway's insistence that we lynch NOW is concerning to me.Looker wrote:

Why would you pit Norway vs Zantetsu as opposed to Zantetsu vs Battle Mage?- Riabi

From this:
to this:In post 807, NorwegianboyEE wrote:If Zantetsu and Luca Blight are scums then the most likely teammate is Egix96.
Solve= Zantetsu/Luca Blight/Egix96
Lynch in this order.
Zantetsu, if scum -> lynch Luca Blight, if scum -> lynch Egix96.
What happened to your confidence? What happened to what appeared to be near certainty that the game was solved? If your reads were so certain, someone simply asking you to slow down shouldn't shake that certainty.NorwegianboyEE wrote:If Zantetsu flips scum i’d take another look at that Riabi guy.

@MOD, Unless I missed something, I believe Norwegian is also voting for Zan? He definitely marked a vote for him, and I don't see an unvote from Norwe anywhere.In post 1008, Firebringer wrote:- Riabi

I didn't avoid anything. I thought I made my thought process clear. I wanted to wait until at least every slot had had a chance to claim before killing Zant. I would have been happy to vote for him once that happened.In post 1198, Looker wrote:

Ok, thank you. I get that now... I agree then, the likelyhood that Looker is town just shot up a whole lot. But, that doesn't confirm your alignment at all, correct? You could still be scum.In post 1342, Eve wrote:basically simple means my action will fail unless i target someone who is vanilla - so either a goon or a VT
for Looker to be scum he would need to be a goon because i succeeded last night
