Nomsy does not hide their last visit activity on their profile.
The following players do hide that information on their profiles:
tictac
Dunnstral
Malakittens
Titus
Frogsterking
Vivax
Sara
Enchant
beeboy
Toogeloo
The following players do not:
mastina
Fredrick A Campbell
Yume
NDMath
SirCakez
Gamma Emerald
MeekMeerkat
Further sorting out players and I don't think that mastina, Yume, NDMath, or SirCakez would make that post. This makes me think that Nomsy is controlled by one of Fredrick A Campbell, Gamma Emerald, or MeekMeerkat.
Nomsy spoke a German phrase, so I searched those 3 isos for the word 'German'. Gamma Emerald is the only one who returned a hit
Spoiler:
Just something to think about. I guess it's possible that Nomsy is not hiding their activity for a different reason and I'm off base.- Dunnstral

What I'm getting at is that they're not a real player, they seem to be a second account for somebody else. So I don't see how voting for the Nomsy account is helpful. I think the likely outcome of voting them out is that the Nomsy account simply stops being able to post/vote/use any other abilities.In post 24, Titus wrote:
Nomsy, in flavor, serves as essentially an extra slot for it's owner in TFT.In post 21, Dunnstral wrote:Why would we vote for Nomsy? They are not a real player slot.
I think that post 18 is too early to say that Nomsy is scum.
It's ironic that Nomsy is accusing us of misdirection in post 22 while voting and accusing others from a secret account. I think there is a lack of self awareness here.- Dunnstral

Well I didn't say that Nomsy would flip an alignment and don't think that is guaranteed. I don't think the Nomsy account has its own alignment or role pm, I think it is merely a part of another player's role pm. I also think that the death of the player who controls the Nomsy account would naturally result in the Nomsy account being removed from play.In post 47, MeekMeerkat wrote:

? Then it’s not pointless ?
I don’t yet find anyone scummier than Nomsy.
I guess I make some assumptions here, but we'd be making different assumptions by trying to eliminate Nomsy- Dunnstral

Best friends: I don't agree with friendly neighbor, I think that interpretation is based on the name of the trait rather than what it does in the source; I think this trait pairs people up in some way and gives a buff. Maybe just 1 pair for balance.
Mage crest: A mage emblem is an item that makes you count as having 1 additional mage on your team, for the purpose of set bonuses. This sounds pretty specific to the mage role so it's surprising to me that we have two people voting here right now.
Ancient Archives: A tome of traits gives you a choice between different emblems. I have no clue how that would translate to an ability here. Could be similar to mage crest but with different choices.- Dunnstral

I like ND's response to hooding with Nomsy even if Nomsy might be bad.

I have a feeling I'm using p-values incorrectly in some way that a statistician may be able to tell me.
The lowest p-value you could reach on a town read is ~75%, and ~25% for a scumread so you could never disprove your null hypothesis (and also your goal here isn't to test the null hypothesis), meaning it would be clearer to just use raw probabilities than p-values.In post 479, Fredrick A Campbell wrote:

Are you measuring two spectrums or one?
I don't even know if this is a game of mafia anymore lmao
The idea I was trying to get at is that my confidence in all those reads are at 5%.
The statistical idea I was trying to get at is apparently so poorly thought out that my attempts to verbalise it makes me realise it's statistical nonsense.

it's the characterization of the character-bit she's ding as obfuscating i do object to.
all the regular mastina-bits i could normally see are plainly visible here, so feels like excuses 4 what doesn't need excusing really.
and who needs 2 iso-read mastina w yume going on like she is?

Also. Mastina softed way, way too hard there. Not surprised at all she died first, but I am surprised that she died during the day phase.
This is maybe not something we do righ tnow but keep in mind that some people have confirmable flavor and may not make sense as the person who killed mastina; it can be narrowed down.- Dunnstral

If shooter is mafia and have more bullets, they can just prevent us from eliminating by shoting close to deadline.
If it was town. Well. Why.- Dunnstral

Mastina continued to do the rp thing and slowly revealed more and more info about their role, pretty much outright saying that they had 4 abilities that scaled up as people died. Predictably, mafia didn't like that very much and shot her dead. What wasn't expected was that she was also killed during the day phase, so we lost our doublevoter-bp-loved-commuter-cop-governor-dayvigilante. In the resulting power vacuum that ensued from both the day vig firing and mastina's broken role dying, Titus decided to gundam morph into FrogsterKing's slot and now they're a hydra account with 2 seperate alignments (which could be the same). Titus the aired out a laundry list of downsides to doing so then basically said "trust me bro" and hinted that they had really good powers too, so we can expect mafia to take offense to that too. Oh and they only count as 1 for parity so we now have 16 people left on day 1 when we started with 18 in this 17 player game.- Dunnstral

It is day 1 but there are a few things to form a read off of:In post 899, Legends wrote:"Legends" has discussed reads during coffee break and has decided not to specify which hydra head feels which way. This is being done in order to avoid pocketing attempts by scum!
Legends has decided to make the following statements:
1) Legends believes Tic tac is scum.
2) Legends believes the following players are Town and has a request for them.
- @Mala
@Gamma
@Meerkat
@Dunnstral
@SirCakez replacement
@Yume
Legends requests updated reads lists from each of you at your earliest opportunity to write one.
Thank you for your time!
-Frog
1) How people treated Mastina before the shot
It's possible mafia were planning this shot a bit in advance, in which case it is unlikely they went out of their way to call Mastina mafia. They could have possibly called Mastina town.
2) How people reacted to Mastina being shot
This includes people who did not react at all, of which there are quite a few, I believe.
3) How people reacted to Titus forming the Legends hydra
Again, this includes a lack of reaction. This is something worth commenting on, in my opinion, and not doing so means you are trying to stay away for some reason. Not including people who simply haven't posted since either of these events.
4) Augment voting
What people thought about the augments and how they voted.
5) Neighborhood management
How players have reacted to this power being available.- Dunnstral

I think my ideal scum is somebody who has avoided conflict with mastina, had no or low reaction to them being shot, had no or low reaction to Titus forming the Legends hydra, and have seemed generally disinterested in forming neighborhoods, or doing so only as an afterthought.
Ignoring Augment voting as there was a lot of speculation but we didn't know what the powers did.- Dunnstral

I realize that this is a pedantic question,but mastina wasn't eliminated; shedied. If she were mafia, would town no longer be able to have eliminated all non-town players, therefore losing?- Dunnstral

I just sat down and took a look at the first game linked beyond the date
I disagree that this game looks similar to that game. I'd even say that this game is instead noticeably different from that game and this weakens your stance, though again I think the meta here is pretty weak due to age plus Beeboy's low contribution in this game - Dunnstral
