SirPrimalform: Why, that's the second biggest vote I've ever seen!
Also I'm severely disappointed that the basis for your claim of being cleared is the faulty logic of thinking a confirmed townie's D1 reads are somehow infallible.
You also claimed in #491 that you think you can prove yourself town. Well, now would probably be the time to do that. You made that claim on D1, long before RW was NK'd so I assume it has nothing to do with your ISO of RW (unless you were already planning to kill him, but I don't necessarily think that).
yeah, that's why I EBWOP'd. The hyperlinks were messed up. They looked so pretty before I posted. >>:( Also I'm severely disappointed that the basis for your claim of being cleared is the faulty logic of thinking a confirmed townie's D1 reads are somehow infallible.

I know they are not infallable, but this Day people have decided to ignore them completely, which is also bad play.
Also, I had prepared BCs long before the end of D1, and I am prepared to release them if 3 others also request.
@Carradice my reads at this very moment.
List of Players as I suspect them:
1. SirPrimalform = 0.45 (unsure if 0.3 or 0.6, so meh)
2. yogsloth 1.00
3. trentonlf 0.30
4. Lifthrasil 0.30
5. FlockeSchnee 0.45 (maybe a bit of anti-OMGUS here; not sure)
6. JoeSapphire 0.70
7. Carradice 0.4 (except for the math bit that went over my head; could be hidden code there)
8. RWarehall 0.00
9¾. GameRager 0.65
10. ConsulCaesar 0.80
11. Microfish_1 0.00
12. joppo 0.45
13. PookaMustard 0.90
14. agentcarr16 0.60
Note: If NOONE backs up Agent's claim, he should be treated as scum. Except a scum neighbor scum might perhaps count on this and refuse to speak up.

Great, I didn't do the Microfish ISO yet, or rather, I started on it and quickly left it after the fourth or fifth post. My motivation for doing anything is sort of dying. On the flipside, Micro is here. Just let me get this out of the way first.
Hoooooooooooonestly? I'm not interested in your role. I'm more interested in why you keep painting me as the scheming superscum, making me second to Yogsloth on the scumlist. You said Yog's post stinks and the reasons for it, and put him on top of...who? Me? The person you just said was looking better today? I'm getting the vibe I didn't even get lower on the scumlist and only became 2nd because Yogsloth yanked me out of 1st place.
And then you give Joe a 0.70 score. Based on what I said about him vote hopping? But surely if you think I am scum, shouldn't you take what I say with a grain of salt and not make Joe look scummy based on what I said? This is odd.
I've really no idea why you're doubling down on thinking me scum based on voting you on the D1 rush. I'm willing - have partway worked on already - to do an ISO of you and see if lynching you was a bad idea, and course correct if the results turned promising.
Lifthrasil: Well, not everybody is as callous as I am as scum. Bussing a buddy on D1 is quite uncommon (that's why the WIFOM 'I would never do that as scum' works). It's not unheard of, like yogs pretends it to be, but it isn't common or easy to do either. Most will hesitate to damage their own team on D1 in this way. Usually it isn't necessary either. D1 Town is blind, so a scum has to do a serious blunder to warrant getting bussed.
Those who hesitate in damaging their own team on D1 will likely be haunted by it in future days, should wagon analysis and scum flips reveal the correlation. There's also the town points in lynching scum. It is not farfetched to think a scumbuddy is on a scum's wagon D1. Lifthrasil: It is interesting that both yogs and you try to deal in absolutes here. Yogs trying to imply that bussing on D1 never happens. You implying that scum will almost always have at least one buddy on a scum-train. Even on Day 1.
Both absolutes are false and both of you are experienced enough to know that. Which makes me wonder why you try to sell such a tale. Scum will do whatever they deem opportune and it usually involves a lot of WIFOM. So there are no absolutes. Especially not for D1.
I'm not selling a tale. I'm working with the info I got and based it on the assumption that bussing happens, for the ultimate goal of scumhunting. And this is all without talking about the possibility that Micro is Town all along, in which case it's even likelier that scum are on the wagon. Both absolutes are false and both of you are experienced enough to know that. Which makes me wonder why you try to sell such a tale. Scum will do whatever they deem opportune and it usually involves a lot of WIFOM. So there are no absolutes. Especially not for D1.

The thing is, not only do we not have any particular reason to value RW's reads more than our own, but they're outdated now. They're D1 reads which will only become more outdated as the game goes on. You're placing a weird amount of value on them when the only bit of them you know to be true is his read of you (if you're town) and himself.
What does BC stand for and why did they need preparing? If that's something to do with claiming then town don't need to prepare a claim...

yes, they are not as current as others, but they are still valid to some degree. I have seen games where town or observers saw something that made them definitely sure of scum or town on D1, they didn't change their opinion publicly, and they were proven right in the end.
yes
You bake them in the oven at 350° (F, or course) for one hour. You remove them as necessary.
I'm suspicious of you, Pooka, because
1) lingering suspicion from last game we played together of mafia, you scum-in-that-game :)
2) you didn't give credence to something we discussed often until after I brought it up.
3) gut instinct based on your posts this game.
You see, I want to put you lower, and your argument for Joe is a bit of a one-off that you could have written of a town to give yourself town points, but I'm not comfortable yet lowering you.
I know how well you play scum, and this makes me suspicious of you from the start, similar to the Lift-is-scum thing that others have.
So far I have 2 votes to show my name & BC. 2 more are needed so i know it isn't just scum wanting it before I claim.

First off I note that Micro is at L-1 and has posted so I will unvote first to avoid Lynch until I can read and get up to speed....will revote later if I feel the need.
Unvotus Microfish
(Also Micro: I skimmed ahead a tiny bit and note you say you need 2 votes till you claim......BUT you are now at L-1 before this temp. unvote, so you don't HAVE that amount of breathing room/votes to go until possible lynch.
To everyone else: I am reading and will reply/etc and then possibly revote if need be in a bit)

"Must have had a reason." Yeah, he thought you were town. Also, we know for sure that he didn't have any investigative powers, so you're literally saying "I'm Town because RW thought I was Town." Doesn't fly with me.

Carradice: @Micro is practically cooked (micro...waved? sorry!) at 9 Hard Concurrence, and should be the center of the discussion. If there is an insufficient number of votes, because of dispersion with the other options, or because of changes of opinion, other promising candidates seem to be @Flocke and @Pooka.
All this, before @Flocke and @Micro take the floor for some discussion, that might sway opinions in different directions. Also, people feeling uncomfortable with any of these candidates might want to make a case for alternative options.
Nice charts/etc.....I cannot say I fully get them atm(i'd likely need to study them a bit or be told what sections mean what in layman's terms), but I can sorta get the gist of what the main spreadsheet is trying to say, I think. All this, before @Flocke and @Micro take the floor for some discussion, that might sway opinions in different directions. Also, people feeling uncomfortable with any of these candidates might want to make a case for alternative options.
Also kudos for the amount of effort put in. :)
(Nitpick: By SPG in the one part near the bottom, did you mean SPF? Just checking)
=========================================================================
Would do it if I could...also thanks for adding your list to the pool of lists. :)
=========================================================================
I note that(by this post of yours) Flocke still hadn't replied(iirc) and voiced his replies to the concerns against him much.......very interesting, to be sure.
Lifthrasil: @Consul: are you aware, that you are exposing him to the danger of a quickhammer? You know, the danger that you were so worried about yesterday, when it concerned agent?
I also find it interesting that you(a seeming staunch "we must have a lynch to analyze" advocate) are "complaining" about us getting someone close to lynch and about those doing so several days into D2.....so do you want a lynch for us to analyze and for people to get us to said lynch or not? What changed(if anything) of your stance on such from D1 to D2?
Lifthrasil: By the way, I actually would prefer a FlockeSchnee lynch over a Micro lynch. If Micro is scum, Flocke is most assuredly as well and just didn't dare to bus Yesterday. But there is also the possibility of Flocke being scum alone and letting a Town!Micro train run into no-lynch, because he had been told that it would be bad for Town. And also because Town would keep focusing on Micro today.
He had been told that indirectly by me and I think 1 or so others on D1, YES, but also many veterans also said how bad that idea was and chastised us for it....which he likely also would have taken into account(and likely more so than the nolynch idea due to a lynch on D1 being pushed more by the veteran players) as well. Friday sometime, I believe....so we have time to discuss this as long as the wagon doesn't evaporate in the meantime like on D1(where not many could agree on any wagon for long).
Correction/PPE: Monday sometime, as per post 683 by Carradice
==========================================================================
Microfish_1: B. RW said he thought I was town in Posts
(in case the hyperlinking messed up again those are posts 470 476 503 517 & 565)
So wait.....you're trying to say we should trust you as town because a known town player THOUGHT(not knew, just thought) you're town? Really? (in case the hyperlinking messed up again those are posts 470 476 503 517 & 565)
Even in post 517, for example, RW says he only FEELS he has cleared the ones he mentioned.
Microfish_1: B2. He refused--refused, I say--to vote for me--despite being online and able to hammer at the deadline--and must have had a reason. He's too good of a player to not have a reason for allowing D1 NL, and we know he is our only confirmed town. I propose it is because of what he stated--namely that he correctly had me lock-town and would not contribute to a bad lunch.
NOTE: He also(in Post 517/etc) also mentioned Me, Lift, amd Flocke as well...so are you saying all of us are town by that logic? Microfish_1: B3. (,Adventures in, anyone? it was a downright weird book). This waving away suspicions of confirmed townies is bad for town. It is how town lost in at least one of the games I followed, and paying attention to them is how we won in at least one game.
RW suspects Yogs, GR, Caesar and maybe trent. Note 517 again.
Actually, RW had me in the town camp in Post 517.....is this a typo/mistake? RW suspects Yogs, GR, Caesar and maybe trent. Note 517 again.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Microfish_1: B4. 523 is forgotten about. who was neighborised? If no one confirms agent's claim, agent is scum.
So now you have a chance to claim and throw out the above/possibly try to cast shade on agent? as for agenT being scum, I dOn't knoW if I caN subscribe to that idea...call it a hunch.
(@OP: Above is not a vote)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Microfish_1: C. Yogs's post I mentioned before stinks in part because he lies, he misrepresents, and makes generalizations which he then claims are absolutes. more on this when I have time in 4-5 hours, if D2 is still going on.
So you also try to cast shade on Yog as well, then(while still near lynch) you have to go off again? Really? If I were so close to being lynched i'd stick around unless I had no way to stay online for some reason. Microfish_1: D. GR's NAI play looks very off to me, especially how he keeps harping on it being NAI. he did this last game and...was scum. IDR him harping on it soooo much when town.
I keep saying, I did//do it because otherwise players(especially new ones) would likely see it as a definite sign of scum(even in this when i'm town) and likely lynch me...as what happened in many games before when I was town. Microfish_1: G. RW was removed from play because
1. He was protecting someone, maybe me.
2. He was a solid lock town; one of the more concise, clear-thinking, detached and logical players through D1. When I tried to do this my first game (57) I was removed from play. You can check the scumchat for proof.
3. He was "safe" as his list of suspects wasn't defined yet IIRC.
4. Random (yeah right).
1. Thing is you didn't state you were a PR or hint at it, while agent did....so it's more likely(imo) he defended agent or someone else he saw as a potential PR and/or NK target. 1. He was protecting someone, maybe me.
2. He was a solid lock town; one of the more concise, clear-thinking, detached and logical players through D1. When I tried to do this my first game (57) I was removed from play. You can check the scumchat for proof.
3. He was "safe" as his list of suspects wasn't defined yet IIRC.
4. Random (yeah right).
2. This is possible
3. Also possible
4. Agreed
Microfish_1: H. Consider: If I was scum, why in the world would I vote in night chat to remove literally the only player who thought I was town? This would be stupid beyond belief. Literally any other player would have been better from a scum!micro perspective than eliminating a pocketed player. Pooka can vouch for this--he was crowing--rightfully-- in the nightchat for his previous/most recent game as scum (in which I took part) that he'd had a solid vote behind him that would vote as Pooka wanted because I was so deeply pocketed by Pooks in that game.
As you said above, in idea 3 in the post bit I repld to before this one: If you are scum and NK him then he was a more "safe" choice due to him trusting you more, and he was/is a veteran player as well. Microfish_1: I. I think attention ought to be focused on those who have driven the narrative D2 and have been calling for my being scum, deliberately contradicting and ignoring the word/hunch of the only player we know is town.
As he wasn't the cop his word doesn't mean as much, and his hunches could be wrong as well.....as I have said before on other games: Town should ONLY trust fully VERIFIED TOWN....full stop. (Also @OP: The above line is also NOT a vote)
If i'm included I think you should claim(minimal, preferably.....just enough to clear you and not out any potential info that could help us town[if you're town that is] if you keep it secret) asap.
====================================================================
*To all: Still reading, but done till 691....will post a bit more in 10 minutes or so, and then think on voting.....though at this point(with the above post by Micro) it's more likely i'll re-vote UNLESS Micro can change my mind at the last minute.*

OK, nothing super damning so far. Just made it to #226, the infamous "role-fishing" post. On first read, I can see why people suspect it to be role-fishing, as he doesn't clarify that he's only telling people to just confirm it for themselves, at least not until #228, but by then it was too late. #283 he later clarifies that this for the sake of catching scum when they fakeclaim by linking their role with their name.
After thinking about it for a bit, the act of saying "yes" or "no" to this question would have helped scum from the get-go, as early as Day 1, figure out how to make a believable claim. Rather than notice the pattern in the flips too late, they start paying attention now and noticing how the flavor integrates with the game and, think of something that would have worked even before the RW flip. Micro answered his own question by saying yes. If he's scum, he probably got cold feet and just gave Town the advantage of knowledge there instead of patiently waiting until the nightchat let him speak his mind out...I'm not sure a Micro scum would do that, but it sounds plausible from how little he played. But if he's town, scum are thanking him in private.
#300 establishes that Agent is "just scummy enough" and that Micro is not convinced yet and might change his mind. This sets the precedent for him having no idea what to do about Agent, so points for consistency there. In #329 he says he'd lynch Agent to avoid no kill on Friday...which is what happened. Now based on what has happened in the game so far, I'm certainly not a fan of lynching "to avoid no kills" as they imply you aren't really convinced about the wagon and just jumping on, but he has actually built his Agent case based on his behavior. The frequent claims.
Worth noting that in #329, he says I am read as Town, but since I "hoodwinked" him every single time, he ought to read me as scum instead. And this is persistent across his posts. Way too often, he talks about how I'm basically a master puppeteer, and him the unwitting puppet who does as I do. I'm concerned this is an attempt to shade me and make me look worse by saying that I know how to put him in my pocket, because he does bring it up a loooooooooooot. It's honestly a very easy way to shade me without using anything from this fine game to support his claims.
Now, this is my final run for today, it's 4:34AM for ZFR's sake! The infamous #431. I now a bit better what bothered me about this post. He does say that Agent's reaction is quite nice. He appreicates it. Feels better about him. Because of it, he does not overly wish to vote Agent or Lift. A couple of sentences later, he said he would vote Agent to avoid a NL. And then the vote a post later.
I can see why he voted Agent. Agent was going to be the wagon that the day would end with, and he merely added his vote in to get a flip. After all, he thought Agent would've been that non-Town flip and that was better than a Town flip.
And I hopped on him instead of going with Agent and then worrying about a Microfish case the next day (as I'm already doing). So I think I am partway to blame for the amazing no-lynch.
Overall, I'd say neutral with scummy shades. I'm concerned about him handing info on a silver platter to scum by saying that yes, his character "matches up" with the role, and I'm also worried his constant mention of how I pocketed him is shading without having to do any real work to implicate me. But other than that? He's fine. Not bad, not overly spectacular, but alright. Now, I'm going to sleep. Maybe history will repeat itself and I will have a Pooka wagon once I'm up.

I'm concerned about him handing info on a silver platter to scum by saying that yes, his character "matches up" with the role, and I'm also worried his constant mention of how I pocketed him is shading without having to do any real work to implicate me. But other than that? He's fine. Not bad, not overly spectacular, but alright. Now, I'm going to sleep. Maybe history will repeat itself and I will have a Pooka wagon once I'm up.

SirPrimalform: Why, that's the second biggest vote I've ever seen!
Also I'm severely disappointed that the basis for your claim of being cleared is the faulty logic of thinking a confirmed townie's D1 reads are somehow infallible.
1st bit by you: Lol...nice reference m80. Also I'm severely disappointed that the basis for your claim of being cleared is the faulty logic of thinking a confirmed townie's D1 reads are somehow infallible.
2nd bit by you: My thoughts exactly.....if Micro CAN make a good reply answering my concerns and those of others(and our replies to him that were made since he last posted) then MAYBE I might reconsider re-voting him, but as of right now he's not making a good case for himself....and as a veteran(afaik he is one.....I forget what games he's played in atm) he should know better than to state essentially "This other town thought I am town so that means I am town...that's my proof" as his defense.
====================================================
Microfish_1: I know they are not infallable, but this Day people have decided to ignore them completely, which is also bad play.
Dunno about others but I didn't....I just don't trust ANY player's lists as infallible(even known town) unless they had some sort of PR that helped them find scum and they had used such on the people on their trusted list/etc, that is. Also your seeming suspicion of many on your wagon and use of someone's feelings(RW) of who is likely town as your defense isn't helping much.
Microfish_1: Also, I had prepared BCs long before the end of D1, and I am prepared to release them if 3 others also request.
I request them, then.....this is why I unvoted...to let you make your case and have time to do so. (@OP: Above line is not a vote)
Microfish_1: Note: If NOONE backs up Agent's claim, he should be treated as scum. Except a scum neighbor scum might perhaps count on this and refuse to speak up.
Look into the 4th reply bit to you in post 700 for my feelings on part of this (Again@OP: Not a vote)
===========================================================
PookaMustard: Great, I didn't do the Microfish ISO yet, or rather, I started on it and quickly left it after the fourth or fifth post. My motivation for doing anything is sort of dying.
I do hope that you eventually change your mind. Such an ISO might help us somehow no matter what happens today or tomorrow(D2 or D3). PookaMustard: Those who hesitate in damaging their own team on D1 will likely be haunted by it in future days, should wagon analysis and scum flips reveal the correlation. There's also the town points in lynching scum. It is not farfetched to think a scumbuddy is on a scum's wagon D1.
Agreed.....getting town points is a big help.....it's part of why I suspected some on my team in the SH game and passed L policies back then. PookaMustard: I'm willing - have partway worked on already - to do an ISO of you and see if lynching you was a bad idea, and course correct if the results turned promising.
Sounds good....I myself will wait a bit to see if you finish it & also give Micro a bit more time to post his BCs(if any) and reply a bit to what's been asked of him as of late. =============================================================
IF he is town that is a good choice...he is very analytical and good at gathering data, it seems. :)
=============================================================
PookaMustard: Now, I'm going to sleep. Maybe history will repeat itself and I will have a Pooka wagon once I'm up.
Hopefully not....I lean you more town atm and also like your posts(in this game and when you were OP in the SH game)....also I don't want to see an "undecided voting camps pt 2" on this "day" as well. =============================================================
*Done for now.....won't make another vote until Micro has posted and replied a bit more to the new replies(including mine) to him and he has tossed us those delicious breadcrumbs we all asked for(and possible makes a claim, but only if needed). I also want to wait to see Pooka's ISO project posted and be able to read it first is possible.
If anyone had any questions I will be here for a bit*
(@OP: Again, the above is NOT a vote)

agentcarr16: 8. 1.0
"Must have had a reason." Yeah, he thought you were town. Also, we know for sure that he didn't have any investigative powers, so you're literally saying "I'm Town because RW thought I was Town."
How quickly consensus was reached as to whether I should say who I neighbourised. I'm so proud of us for being so decisive. /s
I neighbourised Carradice.
I take it this was a joke? "Must have had a reason." Yeah, he thought you were town. Also, we know for sure that he didn't have any investigative powers, so you're literally saying "I'm Town because RW thought I was Town."

I neighbourised Carradice.
What I'm saying is that the decided opinion of a logical towns-person in thinking me "lock town" should not be discarded merely because you find it convenient to do so, it should be considered.
Decisions about some things are very easy. ;-)
Glad to hear that Carradice was the target, will Carradice back this up?
===========================================
@Pooka, Further: I was absolutely convinced D1 that you were scum. You weren't passed by Yogs, but you lowered yourself and he then accelerated beyond you.
(also If I flip my opinion too quickly, this will open me up to charges of votehopping/being wishy-washy, etc /s )
your comment about Joe was one of the things that is moving you lower.
I had noted (and I think(?) mentioned) Joe's Joe-ness and not towniness on D1; I was glad to see another player bringing it up.
======================================
Microfish_1: B. RW said he thought I was town in Posts
(in case the hyperlinking messed up again those are posts 470 476 503 517 & 565)
GameRager: So wait.....you're trying to say we should trust you as town because a known town player THOUGHT(not knew, just thought) you're town? Really? (in case the hyperlinking messed up again those are posts 470 476 503 517 & 565)
-------------------
Microfish_1: B2. He refused--refused, I say--to vote for me--despite being online and able to hammer at the deadline--and must have had a reason. He's too good of a player to not have a reason for allowing D1 NL, and we know he is our only confirmed town. I propose it is because of what he stated--namely that he correctly had me lock-town and would not contribute to a bad lunch.
GameRager: NOTE: He also(in Post 517/etc) also mentioned Me, Lift, amd Flocke as well...so are you saying all of us are town by that logic? Microfish_1: B3. (,Adventures in, anyone? it was a downright weird book). This waving away suspicions of confirmed townies is bad for town. It is how town lost in at least one of the games I followed, and paying attention to them is how we won in at least one game.
RW suspects Yogs, GR, Caesar and maybe trent. Note 517 again.
GameRager: Actually, RW had me in the town camp in Post 517.....is this a typo/mistake? RW suspects Yogs, GR, Caesar and maybe trent. Note 517 again.
However, I have to say that my list of leaning town--with the possible exception of GR (in part because of how successfully LAMIST he was last game)--very closely matches those RW saw and did at the end of D1 also.
------------
Microfish_1: B4. 523 is forgotten about. who was neighborised? If no one confirms agent's claim, agent is scum.
GameRager: So now you have a chance to claim and throw out the above/possibly try to cast shade on agent? as for agenT being scum, I dOn't knoW if I caN subscribe to that idea...call it a hunch.
(@OP: Above is not a vote)
Also, your "Town" is kinda blatant...just sayin'....
------------------
Microfish_1: C. Yogs's post I mentioned before stinks in part because he lies, he misrepresents, and makes generalizations which he then claims are absolutes. more on this when I have time in 4-5 hours, if D2 is still going on.
GameRager: So you also try to cast shade on Yog as well, then(while still near lunch) you have to go off again? Really? If I were so close to being lunched i'd stick around unless I had no way to stay online for some reason. 2, IRL with longstanding commitments takes the place of this game for an evening, even if I get removed from play in the process. See Rule 3.
------------------
Microfish_1: D. GR's NAI play looks very off to me, especially how he keeps harping on it being NAI. he did this last game and...was scum. IDR him harping on it soooo much when town.
GameRager: I keep saying, I did//do it because otherwise players(especially new ones) would likely see it as a definite sign of scum(even in this when i'm town) and likely lunch me...as what happened in many games before when I was town. ---------------------------
Microfish_1: G. RW was removed from play because
1. He was protecting someone, maybe me.
2. He was a solid lock town; one of the more concise, clear-thinking, detached and logical players through D1. When I tried to do this my first game (57) I was removed from play. You can check the scumchat for proof.
3. He was "safe" as his list of suspects wasn't defined yet IIRC.
4. Random (yeah right).
GameRager: 1. Thing is you didn't state you were a PR or hint at it, while agent did....so it's more likely(imo) he defended agent or someone else he saw as a potential PR and/or NK target. 1. He was protecting someone, maybe me.
2. He was a solid lock town; one of the more concise, clear-thinking, detached and logical players through D1. When I tried to do this my first game (57) I was removed from play. You can check the scumchat for proof.
3. He was "safe" as his list of suspects wasn't defined yet IIRC.
4. Random (yeah right).
2. This is possible
3. Also possible
4. Agreed
RWarehall: I tried to do this without saying why and just hoped it slid by, but at this point with all the attention Micro has gotten, I'm sure it didn't fly under the scum radar.
That post everyone seems to want to call "role-fishing" is a bad post, but not because he's role-fishing, he accidentally revealed he had a PR. Because you wouldn't think to suggest to people to check their PMs to see if their names match their roles without having a name and role that do match. Vanillas aren't going to do that.
If you look at that post through the eyes of Town in his position vs eyes of scum, it should be clear only Town is going to make a post like that. Scum isn't going to overtly fish like that. Can you even think of a time scum was that brazenly role-fishing? Ever? So this whole idea Micro is scummy for that post is bad logic.
I had him as Town since that post. Did my best to leave him off my Town reads so hopefully he might go under the radar and because there is no way to explain my read without giving it away. But we are too close to deadline to play games and too many have expressed interest in lunching him to avoid a no-lunch. At least this way, what that role is might stay a mystery and scum will have to guess whether it's worth going after or not.

---------------------
Microfish_1: H. Consider: If I was scum, why in the world would I vote in night chat to remove literally the only player who thought I was town? This would be stupid beyond belief. Literally any other player would have been better from a scum!micro perspective than eliminating a pocketed player. Pooka can vouch for this--he was crowing--rightfully-- in the nightchat for his previous/most recent game as scum (in which I took part) that he'd had a solid vote behind him that would vote as Pooka wanted because I was so deeply pocketed by Pooks in that game.
GameRager: As you said above, in idea 3 in the post bit I repld to before this one: If you are scum and NK him then he was a more "safe" choice due to him trusting you more, and he was/is a veteran player as well. -------------------
Microfish_1: I. I think attention ought to be focused on those who have driven the narrative D2 and have been calling for my being scum, deliberately contradicting and ignoring the word/hunch of the only player we know is town.
GameRager: As he wasn't the cop his word doesn't mean as much, and his hunches could be wrong as well.....as I have said before on other games: Town should ONLY trust fully VERIFIED TOWN....full stop. eyebrows fly into his hairline

There you have it. For good or ill, those are the ones i prepared and you can take them for what they are worth.
I admit that 223 is the weakest, but I was tired and couldn't think of a word beginning with "C" that could start a sentence and not be a player's name or other proper noun.
Not a PR that is worth a NK, and I really hope RW didn't protect me, as that would have been a waste--he's much better than me and my PR is not very strong until D4.
=======================
Update:
Pooka moves down to 0.60, as I do like his logic toDay.
You state it would be vhelpful to scum, but also say that I'd be giving town knowledge that would help them. ? So, which is worse? to give town Valuable info and accidentally pass it on to scum? Or to keep silent until after a fakeclaim that missed this info (kinda like scene & "houses" instead of "spacestation bunks"--and have town not even notice this was a fakeclaim/something was off? I think you're gonna say the answer is I should have kept my big mouth shut. :(
Also, when Pooka says I said "yes" to my question, this is slight misrepresentation. I said , not to my question of "does flavour name = power"
I forgot to delineate I was taking to everyone, not specifically to you...though everything is kinda to everyone...
I tend to assume everything in the nature of a claim in this game might be a lie until i find out otherwise or see proof to the contrary, such as breadcrumbing early on--you have to decide if my BCs are lies i prepared since very early on (basically as soon as i started playing (post 223, started playing 162 and made my first BC in my 3rd post as a player)
Scum would go after a safe bet who wouldn't suspect them--but they wouldn't go for the only one who vocally said they were town, as they would need that vote later on. Consider the game where Pooka pocketed me and we lost both of our docs in one night. IIRC, wihtout looking, he wanted to not go for me, because I was in his pocket, but for a nuetral who didn't overly suspect them, but who also didn't support them.

Microfish_1: Plenty of people condemned me for the second half, despite my stating "no one is going to give me an answer" when I asked the question and later (6 times now?) stating my thinking by saying that was acknowledgement that no thinking or experienced mafia player would answer this aloud. Even was in part a trap for those who weren't thinking, and nobody fell in. Repeating: for the umpteenth time, I was not asking for an answer, but for people to answer this to themselves and to keep this in mind in case of a claim.
Concerning the platitude that "we can't be sure of anyone" there was a discussion (I think you took part in it yourself) about townclearing people and how sometimes this is done without sufficient proof to the detriment of town. Yet it bears repeating and my comment was merely a reminder of this and an acknowledgement that I fall into this trap myself.

Microfish_1: Well, thank you. Err, while I still know I am a bad lunch, I am very glad for the answer. And I fully understand why you acted as you did; I have done similar before. :D
So, I don't think you are nuts at all :D Let me tell you something--I can see that you're learning over the course of toDay (D1)! Everyone learns over time. Yes, I was bad in my first game until I stumbled across something, and the mental strain that search caused made me take a more relaxed approach since than, leading to me being a worse player, but having a better time.
Please--speaking from my personal experience--no matter what you feel like after this game, continue playing with us, and don't bin GOG forum mafia if you happen to find this first game harder than you enjoy. Every game will get easier, and you will learn more and more with each game! Right now, I am still learning, despite this being my 5th or 6th game.
Confidentially, I'm still nowhere near good, so don't feel bad if you don't think you're as good as some of the others--I know I'm not and I still have fun at this. (Yes, the "blue in the shirt" thing was a joke inspired by the shirt I currently am wearing.)

Microfish_1: ++++++++++++
Note:
I'm willing to vote Caesar to avoid a Micro!lunch or NL. Currently, I think Caesar isn't 100% scum so much as 3rd party (anti- or pro- town). Definitely, I prefer D1 courtesy, but there comes a time to drop it, if necessary. For after all, any third party folk are not required to live for the town win condition, (see the sample), so a lunch will a) give us info, and b) not hit town.

Microfish_1: I had noted (and I think(?) mentioned) Joe's Joe-ness and not towniness on D1; I was glad to see another player bringing it up.
I mentioned Joe was Off in post 325 Microfish_1: Joe & Pooka feel off to me (joe way more so than Pooks, but i cannot put my finger on exactly why Joe is so off. he just seems...different.
PookaMustard: After thinking about it for a bit, the act of saying "yes" or "no" to this question would have helped scum from the get-go, as early as Day 1, figure out how to make a believable claim. Rather than notice the pattern in the flips too late, they start paying attention now and noticing how the flavor integrates with the game and, think of something that would have worked even before the RW flip. Micro answered his own question by saying yes. If he's scum, he probably got cold feet and just gave Town the advantage of knowledge there instead of patiently waiting until the nightchat let him speak his mind out...I'm not sure a Micro scum would do that, but it sounds plausible from how little he played. But if he's town, scum are thanking him in private.
I hadn't considered how this would be a'tall helpful to scum, and I'm not sure how much I believe it. Yet. If pooka flips town, I'll believe it. :D You state it would be vhelpful to scum, but also say that I'd be giving town knowledge that would help them. ?
