that quote kinda screwed up, is what you typed under Kitsune's post in that?

Because regardless of how you feel about my actions there is no motive to do them as scum.

Grizzly was lead before I started swapping and was the lynch. I didn't actually change the outcome, was the final vote, didn't tie, have no reason to have wanted to tie, didn't protect anyone.

What I did do is shake bronson from the third train onto lux and not grizzly, so we know he didn't jump into to save a scum and is probably town.

That should be the main takeaway from last night
Sorry, explain the Bronson/lux part to me? I think I'm misunderstanding your point.

hey Hecht, what pushed you to considering a B-Dub lynch on the first day compared to today?
Like I said, it's mostly gut. But my vote was on Dubs initially when he called out Zipped when we were relatively early on in the "why would we pick the teal room early" discussion. I don't know why it stood out to me.

Today I've got...other gut feels about it.

So right now:

BronsonLee - leaning townish but i still think he's hiding a bit behind the goofs. Would read scummier if more experienced.

Devious has some weird ass posts and i've had a scummy feel on him since almost the beginning. I was thinking new player jitters but that Grizzly vote out of nowhere that opened the floodgates looks really sus. Strong side eye to Devious and every Grizzly post after. Maybe strongest scum read right now.

Kitsunelaine started off today with that role hunting post that looks pretty bad, and there's also the sudden jump on the Bear Train.

Kalor hasn't posted much but it seems every time he does there's town intent behind it. I like his posts. Leaning town.

Stuart444 - started poorly and maybe that's why he's being read as scum, but i don't see it. Then again i'm aware he's a pretty good player so maybe i'm just being a naive fool. Gonna take a closer look to his posts anyway.

Zippedpinhead - i have no idea what zipped was playing at but it gave me a strong feeling he was either a neutral or that he has some really weird town role. I don't think he's scum but i don't fully trust his interests are in sync with town.

Godfather - most of Godfather's contributions on Day 1 amounted to baseless noise. I had him clearly pegged as scum but today has softened that read. I'm gonna wait and see there.

Z-Beat - coasting. Slightly scummy read.

flatearthpandas - i'm pretty sure there was scum on late voting. Between a tie and a Grizzly lynch, both results were positive for the scum team. They got one of them. I find the flipflopping extremely suspect. Scum read.

Hecht - with regards to day end, same as fep. I'll give Hecht the benefit of being on Grizzly much earlier. Slightly leaning scum.

Muffin - townish but only from gut.

SaucyKaz - scummy gutfeel but nothing concrete. Was also a possible reason for the Grizzly train.

Everyone else is mostly several shades of null for me as of now. Need to dive back again after we have more info.

Godfather unfortunately, it looks like melon was the only one that didn't vote for one of the main suspects yesterday. Lux and Stuart are the ones that stayed on SaucyKaz, whereas Dubs, saenima, Muffin, and Kopite stayed on you rather than the two leaders at the end.

However, of these players, I imagine there are multiple scum in there.

Here I'll throw a few more bits of info out there for fun:
I always goof, there is no escaping it even in Mafia and I ain't gonna bother
I haven't played in years or on forums but I've played online Mafia before, old school style, but never a game of this length (mine would take hours, not days), so most of my role knowledge is probably 8-10 years out of date
I like Diet Pepsi

Now that we've established that the room mechanics are very real and not just flavor text, I'm gonna have to backtrack and take a look at everyone who shrugged them off as flavor text.


It is. Scariest part is at my lowest points I could see something like that happening to me.
You always got people to talk to man! Be safe.

Never mind, I sort of take your point. Logically, Bronson and lux are probably not both scum. Unless they were bussing lux(which is stupid as hell day 1)he would have voted grizzly over lux. There is a chance they're both town, but I'm not really buying that yet.

I have a feeling there's more than a few scum on Grizz. He went from 3 votes to 9 in a matter of minutes for no reason.That we aren't looking there is crazy to me. Why did everyone jump on Grizz? How is this not the question we're asking?

Yeah I'm real goddamn curious at the vote jump there

Hell the only reason I pulled my vote is because it was gonna tie and ties are useless

I'm absolutely looking at that. Simple answer is to protect, in order, lux, me, or kaz. Then look at some of the people who switched from me or kaz to grizzly(scummy), as well as people who never voted grizzly(townie).

Then look at who is actively discouraging us from talking about the voting today.

Hecht looks undecided between the two which scans
It looks like it started with turmoil and then votes bled in a little bit

Can you honestly not see the differences between the two?
'Scum using this moment to strike' carrys way more serious connotations than what you ended up describing.

This isnt about definitions, your initial idea and how you elaborated on it were just two differant situations, the later being far less imposing than the former.

They're not two different situations. They're me trying to better articulate my thoughts. If you move under the cover of chaos, to me that is "striking". You're trying to decouple the two for whatever reason but for me they're part and parcel of me trying to communicate my thoughts. Because that's how language works.

So your defintion of striking does not actually require any kind of strike to be made?

Like a strike is to attack someone, mafia striking would be them like killing a player.

Most of the Grizz votes came literally at the last minute. Hell, most votes that stuck came after post 1500, which is 600 posts after *Splinter.
