Like, heydude, 4mask, ICT, you're good town candidates. Tell me why I should be on the Toony wagon instead of Leafsnail who is playing classic mafia play?
Because ToonyMan has performed several other classic mafia plays like "scumhunting" while displaying no true interest in the target's alignment (by dismissing the case before getting anything resembling a useful read) and rolefishing (by asking questions about abilities which only make sense if their purpose is to collect more information about them, as the information directly asked for is already known).

Furthermore, a lurker like Leafsnail, while lynchably scummy, produces next to no information upon lynch, exactly due to the lurking. An active mafioso has many more posts to analyze come D2, giving them greater priority.
So I should be lynched because I'm playing and Leafsnail isn't? You're encouraging every player to never post by saying this.

My problem is I don't think Tric is coherently on a scum team and so I don't want to vote for them today.
Fine. I want Leafsnail dead as well for sidelining and not interacting with anyone.

Is there some reason you don't want to give it to the guy your ability supposedly confirmed as town?
This isn't true. My ability tells me they most likely aren't mafia.

Granted I'm pissed right now and want to showboat, but you're correct otherwise. I'm not confirming Heydude but I'm confident they aren't mafia and I probably should give my pon to him or the "masons".

Toony, say you were lynched and flip town. Who was voting you for the worst reasons?
Vector and TricMagic are voting me for the worst reasons, although there are other players who would vote me if it wouldn't put me at L-1 since I'm at L-2 currently.

Vector knows better and is using my lynch to her advantage, she's framing my actions incorrectly as scum.
TricMagic is voting me because he doesn't care at all.

I think IcyTea and 4mask are likely town masons and are just wrong. Heydude isn't voting me but I'm almost certain he can't be mafia either. This would clear all three of them.

Unsure about dolores and NJW2000. I'm going to keep pairing them together because I feel like their actions are in parallel. Their reasoning is correct sometimes but I don't know if it's because they're town or mafia.

As for people that aren't voting me:

I'm incredibly suspicious of you (NQT), Jim, and Leafsnail for sidelining as long-time players. I think some of you are okay with my lynch because you know I'm not mafia.

I also find Toaster's accusations of IcyTea and 4mask interesting, Toaster comes off as incredibly suspicious to me if IcyTea/4mask are legit.

Fuck this pon I don't think anyone deserves it.
Your mindset is not about a town win.
I literally don't know who to give my 100 pon to. The active players are all morons and the long-time players are sidelining or lurking. Who do you suggest then?

Okay I'm here today.

I'm not claiming unless I'm about to die. I'd rather be dead then have mafia know my role tomorrow.

Yes we'll probably just go to the deadline today, I'm fine with that. I don't think I can make a compelling case and a lot of people hate me. I want TricMagic lynched instead today for being the complete opposite of me: not being active, giving up, playing against town's wishes, not being town. I don't think this will happen because TricMagic made the gigantic brain move to stop posting and give up after being the lynch candidate on Sunday. I should have done the same.

More after I read the thread. Fuck this pon I don't think anyone deserves it.

Alternatively, can you actually articulate your problems with the cases made?
It was partially finding the sudden bandwagon away from Tric strange, and partially from misunderstanding the points that you made in your case. This, in particular, casts a lot of guilt, but I didn't quite catch it the first time:
Quote
Toony's response is to shift the goalposts of the heydude6 townread to the assertion that heydude6 is not on the same team as ICT. These things are only equivalent if ICT is unequivocally scum, and yet ToonyMan moves his vote from one player that is not ICT to another player that is not ICT.
I don't understand this. I have a townread of Heydude because of my day action, this hasn't changed at all. I was rationalizing why this is the case without claiming my ability because I want to inspect more people (and ideally hit some scum) while giving Heydude my support. Why should cops claim benign results on Day 1??

I never accused you of not believing the claim. I do not care if you believe the claim. I accused you of saying that the purpose of the claim was to do something which makes literally no sense, and the only alternative that either you or 4maskwolf have offered to that so far is that you're completely blindly flailing. Am I mistaken, does the quote above where you said that the claim made sense to protect ICT not imply that you thought the claim made sense to protect ICT?
?
What I'm trying to say there is that it makes sense 4mask would cover IcyTea as they haven't been hostile to each other over the course of this game. I'm not surprised by their claims on each other. Masons they don't back each other up doesn't make any sense.

@Leafsnail:
I'm happy to believe the mason claim provisionally. Obviously it could be a scum gambit but it would be an extremely risky one - even if town completely believed it scum masons could get massively blown out by a third-party killing role such as an SK.

fakedit: a daycult fakeclaiming masons would be outright suicide rather than merely risky, because they'd be painting huge targets on themselves for the mafia.
It's true. They're either bafflingly stupid town masons or a bafflingly stupid third-party group. I don't think a Day 1 cult conversion makes sense, and the combination of 4mask and IcyTea both finding me suspicious the entire game makes the whole thing rather annoying since I don't think they're capable of thinking or understanding arguments. They're twisting everything I say the same way dolores says I'm responding to NJW2000, I don't get it.

This case against ToonyMan doesn't make sense to me. What you're touting as a "slip" seems to me like an overly pedantic reading of TM's posts.
It sure is.

I think I believe you that you were busy with family commitment after Christmas. You're voting TricMagic now, so it would have been easy to just vote hop and mislynch me instead while "agreeing" with everyone else's points.



@Toaster:
Webadict:
There are four Mafia players. Lynching a Jester would not end the game unless Shenanigans. You can get a Lurkertrack in a bit.
Are the four Mafia players on the same team?
I mean, that's something you'd have to ask them, wouldn't you?
Interesting, I didn't think of two mafia teams. The other mafia team would surely be suspicious of two people claiming each other though? 4mask and IcyTea would be completely outed, not that I would put it past them. Anti-town and anti-mafia behavior!



@Heydude:
It seems I was wrong about the deadline being tonight. Do you believe my soft-claim on you? Who's scum?



@NQT:
Thoughts?



@NJW2000:
This is a useful result! If Toony flips town (I think we get alignments despite No Spoilers), he clears heydude to some extent. Only problem: I can't really see why he didn't reveal it immediately, or at some point during the kerfuffle with Icytea, or after that was over - isn't confirming someone sooner rather than later good play?
I have a day investigative ability. Cops shouldn't even claim their results on Day 2 if on Night 1 they hit a townie. Why would I claim a weaker town result on Heydude during Day 1? Your reasoning doesn't make sense to me here. I could have said nothing after getting my result, but I chose to reason why my result could be true without claiming to the public that I have a day cop ability. I'm totally fine with you finding this suspicious because it does involve me having extra knowledge which you reasonably (or scummily) deduced.

In fact, he only mentions it to defend himself. My vote on him, whether or not it achieved the pressure that produced this weak final defence, is at least justified by it.
Do you mean partial-claiming after you hounded me the whole day for it? I had to claim my result after getting so many votes, it's not something I would have liked to do you know, so congrats if you're scum.



DOLORES
Yeah, nah, you've totally glossed over our central points again.
It literally does not matter what alignment the ICT+4maskwolf show is. They claimed at a point where ICT was unequivocally in no danger. 4maskwolf is and has been under a fair amount of unresolved heat. This is no reason to claim to protect IcyTea31. Yet that is what you say they are doing, in a line you're now asking us to accept as an you accepting their claim (which to be true, would have to imply that this is what you really thought).
Dude fuck you, what am I glossing over? Literally everything I say is completely dismissed by you as you cover your ears and go "LALALALA". I'm trying to understand what everyone is saying and whether I believe them or not.

I'm willing to believe 4mask and IcyTea claims, and I'm questioning them to assert this. If you think I'm just doubting them to be an ass that's not true at all.

I mean, that's something you'd have to ask them, wouldn't you?
Hey ToonyMan, how many players does your scumteam have?
If your goal is just to piss me off then it's working. I'm town.

Wait, really? Tric has all but claimed that alignment himself and has displayed no inclination towards finding scum, preferring to lynch the people he thinks has his hats.
I don't think that's inconsistent with his town meta.
Specifically, I think that that Tric says he believes that the people impeding from getting his hats are scum for denying town access to his (seemingly pretty mediocre, really, compared to the cost of a mislynch) abilities is entirely in line with what I would believe he would do and (unfortunately) don't think it's as uncommon a stance as you're implying.
So he's town because you say so? Where is he then?



@TricMagic:
What's up? You're voting Jim right now, you could easily put a vote on me to help yourself. What are your plans for the rest of the day?



@Nirur Torir:
I'm convinced now. Re-reading your case, combined with Vector's, is compelling. Further, Toony's posts since the mason claim read like panicked obsession, instead of a townie trying to help solve the puzzle now that we have 4 scum, 2 masons, and 2 strong newbtown suspects.
I felt pretty beat up a couple hours ago. I get pretty antsy when a day is about to end and there's a noose around my neck, except it really wasn't ending yet, oops.

I think Vector has the weakest case on me, but also is the only one that has ears?
I don't understand what dolores and NJW2000 are saying, dolores doesn't care what I say, NJW might?
4mask and IcyTea don't care what I have to say.

After thinking, I don't expect that Tric has a kill, at least not without all his hats, and his claimed abilities sound like a reasonable role that's better for town to fire off than not.
I think the odds are better than 50%, I'll switch. Even odds of cutting off a mafioso action is worth more than lynching a relatively benign third party.
ToonyMan
Fair enough. This at least makes it easier for me to post my notes before day ending without last minute vote switching.

I'm hoping you'll reread and make another conclusion though.

Mod Question:
Can "Leave Comment" affect a player's role or alignment enough to change what they are? Or is it purely player's leaving their thoughts on other players?
My bad, didn't see this question.

There is no answer that would accurately satisfy that question. Depending on the comment, the action could have a myriad of effects. Could it change a player's role? Perhaps, but unlikely by itself. Could it change a player's alignment? Extremely unlikely. You may leave thoughts about other players. Comments are more powerful when multiple comments target the same thing, or when a comment targets a smaller target.
Alright, good. In other words:

1. Comments can just be thoughts on other players.
2. Comments could change roles if there's enough of them.
3. Alignment shifts are extremely unlikely.

I'm seriously starting to question that shit.
I only think you're telling the truth because betting half your mafia team on me is incredibly stupid. I'm so pissed either way.
So because I used a term in its most common definition, while the moderator gave a more general definition, I'm suddenly incredibly stupid?
No, I don't think you're on a mafia team. You could easily be a malicious 3rd party group, which Webadict literally just confirmed now. I don't trust your "town mason" bullshit with how stupid you and 4mask are acting this day.



I feel like IcyTea and 4maskwolf's claim of being masons is dubious. To me, it looks more like IcyTea is a cult leader with a day conversion ability called Hydraform or related to such an ability. Lemme gather some more evidence of this.
Yeah, I could believe this.

The day ends in like 80~ minutes. I'm writing a full-claim of my actions (I also have personal notes I've been keeping) that I will post shortly before the deadline if there's a majority on me.
I think you got the timing a bit off, matey. Try 'a day and 80 minutes'.
....Oh.

I read the date wrong, thanks. I had more stuff I wanted to add to my notes anyway. *breathes deeply*

@4maskwolf:
Are you serious?? I'm asking questions to the mod if I'm able to, Webadict never even responded to my Leave Comment question which I also pointed out after. I want to know how the game works fully.



@IcyTea:
I asked Webadict some questions to confirm masons in this game. He isn't here yet to respond.
I noticed, yes. Seriously, what information did you expect to receive from asking "Are town-aligned quicktopic-buddies town-aligned and in a quicktopic?"

@Webadict:
How do masons work? Are they just town alignment? Do they get a quicktopic together?
Masons is an informal term/common role name for Town players (Though, other alignments could have this moniker as well, this is rarer.) that are confirmed to each other at the beginning of the game, and usually share the ability to communicate outside the game thread. If there were "Masons" in a BYOR (I believe this is the question you are asking, but you may feel free to clarify), they very well could have a QuickTopic.
I'm seriously starting to question that shit.

For that reason I cannot honestly say I have anything on anyone else - I have posted the thoughts I have had about the game up to this point. I do strongly suspect that TricMagic will remain my preferred lynch unless there is a compelling mechanical reason to think someone else is scum, but I will try to read the longform cases up-thread to see if there are any other lynches that I would find acceptable if we cannot reach quorum on TricMagic.
I believe the vote count is currently tied between myself and TricMagic.

The day ends in like 80~ minutes. I'm writing a full-claim of my actions (I also have personal notes I've been keeping) that I will post shortly before the deadline if there's a majority on me.



I know you don't like me and I don't like you, but I'm paranoid and that's why I'm double checking with Webadict.
What exactly are you checking? That when I use a common mafia term, I mean the same common mafia term the moderator uses?
I asked Webadict some questions to confirm masons in this game. He isn't here yet to respond.

You said Luckyowl wasn't right about one of your abilities being named "Hydraform" right? Hydra sounds pretty mason-y to me with the multiple heads.
I don't have an ability by that name. To me it looks like Luckyowl copied one of my abilities, and webadict changed its name before giving it to LO. I can agree there's a logical connection in calling a mason ability "Hydraform", but I'm not the one who decided to call it that. LO already asked for clarification on this, so we'll be waiting for that.
Also, you do realize you're still fishing for details on my abilities?
Fair enough. And no, fuck you.
