Is there a reason you've mostly limited yourself to talking about the auction?

Yes, because I want to explain the auction as possibly the only player with knowledge on the inner workings. And also, I find I don't have enough energy to read some of the posts so I'm skimming through most of it and answering some questions.

Think your wincon can be satisfied just with the auction focus?

You're a little careful to take an auction item yourself, right?  Would if we refused, otherwise... let everyone else take stuff, good/bad both, everyone but you?

I don't want to dig too deep into towny secrets.  I know just enough to predict plausibly could be.  But... if your core is kill a maf D5 or later and... auction's the pure focus?  Help?  I guess you got more in your stocking but... help?

[juicebox]

Alright I'm finally back. I'm gonna play catchup for now and then I'll give my reads when I'm done.

[Elephant Parade]

Right now I could get behind an Imp, FoU, or VS execution.

a)Nope
b)I genuinely don't know if I can take auction items or not but nothing says I can't. I want town to agree on someone who should take the smithy. If everyone's okay with me taking the smithy I'll take it.
c)Auction will help with something besides kill on n5 but it requires me to survive past d2

Well, I sure hope you're town, and hope the mech you describe matches useful town stuff.

But we really need your day game.  Got any day game too?

[juicebox]

Okay, so reads.

Let's do the easiest first.

I'm reading Imp as town here. They're playing well within their town meta in my opinion. They are contributing quite a lot to the discussion and they have also been pretty forthcoming with information

I also think that NJW is town as well. I like what they've been posting and their reads list appears to be well thought out.

Hyper, on the other hand is a scumlean for me. Being inactive for a good portion of the day and then voting someone else who is inactive when prodded is not a good look.

Elephant Parade I'm also scumleaning as well. I don't like that they're tunneling Imp, who is my main town read, and I also don't like how they have been pushing people to participate in the auction but haven't really committed to it themselves. It definitely could be a ploy to get town to use up their votes and get more voting power for the scumteam

Vermillion is another slight townlean, while they're posts haven't been amazing, their laser focus on getting hospital and willingness to share information do seem township to me

EuchreJack is a slight townlean for me. They have some decent posts, they seem to be starting to form some reads .

CM, is null for me while their focus on the auction to the detriment of scumhunting is a bit suspicious, I don't thinknthat's really enough to scumread them for.

Fallacy is also null, they have been unusually quiet, and they're not up to their usual shenanigans, but I think I need to see a bit more from them before I townread them.

Tric is a hard one for me. While their play to take Darkroom is within their town meta, I have a gut feeling that this may be scumTric using their town meta as a smokescreen. Only a slight scumlean for now, but I definitely have my eyes on them

And finally NQT. They're always a hard one for me to read. I think in this case they're a slight townlean. They've also been focused on the auction, but unlike Elephant Parade, they've actually been willing to use their vote in the auction which makes me trust them more

[Crystalizedmire]

Posting from phone.
NJW feels town and helpful.
Elephant parades probaby town too. They feel honest and trying to help.
Tricmagic is also probably town. I can see town tric doing that.
Imp feels off and I dont like how inactive Hyper is. It could just be theyre always inactive or theyre inactive as scum.

If nobody objects, Im taking smithy.

[Imp]

Digging into EJ first.

Bouncing off of NJW's assessment, just for a touchstone and because I find NJW very easy to listen to and focus on this game.

Also, NJW, if this helps you find and read EJ's posts from early that game, this is all of them up to his first reads post, use as you choose.

We have a real recent scum!EJ game, the one that EP asked NJW to look at:

Short post as I'm about to go to bed, and haven't had time to digest everything that's gone on.

EuchreJack - as I said, scum!EJ is nervy and careful while town!EJ is aggressive and chaotic. This looks like town!EJ.

How would you describe CYOS2's scum!EJ, if you're willing to glance at that game?

I'll take a quick look tomorrow - I admit that I've read none of that game.

I would say I'm mostly talking about D1s in the quote... scum!EJ can get a bit less self-controlled in later days if the team falls apart, or earlier if they're really under pressure. This is a shot in the dark and may not apply at all to the game you linked, but I suspect what you're remembering is scum!EJ in later days.

So, here's early EJ's first posts from D1 CYOS2:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Someone get Tric a page, please, sometime, somehow, particularly if he becomes a ghost (and even if he doesn't).  I'll work towards that happening (what, you think I want the darn things?  Sure, but they have better uses and timing) if nobody else gets him a page, no idea if they have better uses.  They easily could.

@Imp & Tric: I have a page

@NQT: Will a player get infected if they receive a trade item from a player who is infected?

Also, I have 1.5 votes, FYI.

Proof: Vote Maximum Spin

Also, if someone else will claim possessing any items, I'll claim information about someone else's role theme.

@Fallacy - I got: A Page and A Playing Card.

Toony:

Jack - voting and getting shit done

I don't quite get it. All EJ has done is claim items, ask a mod question, and vote a player who hadn't posted yet to demonstrate his 1.5-vote, right?

@ElephantParade: Not to interrupt, but I think it's more that Toony would like more players to "claim items, ask a mod a question, and vote a player"

Also, I have 1.5 votes, FYI.

Proof: Vote Maximum Spin

I can understand claiming this if there was no way to conceal it.

But if there was a way to conceal this you should not have claimed.

The only way to avoid claiming was to not vote.

Someone get Tric a page, please, sometime, somehow, particularly if he becomes a ghost (and even if he doesn't).  I'll work towards that happening (what, you think I want the darn things?  Sure, but they have better uses and timing) if nobody else gets him a page, no idea if they have better uses.  They easily could.

@Imp & Tric: I have a page

No clue what a page would do. Have confirmed trading does not spread the infection. Also I wouldn't be infected anymore if I turn into a ghost.

@Tric: I will trade you a blank page, but you either need to tell me what your item is, or make the initial offer yourself.

FYI, I am at work with a cold. My ability to respond will be limited.

What connection do you see there?

Unless Tric is lying someone had to pass it on, and unless the origin is themselves immune (which feels off to me for various reasons -- consider how explosively it would multiply) they'd have to die themselves after. You knew you were going to die N0 and yet had special permission to act anyway. Dying N0 feels like an Oops! All Red Spheres thing and I could see you submitting that kind of path.

... Sigh. Yeah, from what the status reads that's probably true. So they died of the infection Night 0, meaning a role that doesn't have to play the game to win. From that... NQT, do dead ghosts count for Town's win condition?


On another note, I'd ask Jack to reveal the name of the item for Imp to doublecheck before we trade. The cards don't seem to do anything, but the poker aesthetic suggests there is something up with them.

@TricImp: The item is called Lost Page.

Now to head back to work before I get fired.

Kk. So.

Trade Seven of Clubs(TricMagic) for Lost Page(EuchreJack)
Hope this works. Also on my way to make a ghost buff.

Trade Lost Page(EuchreJack) for Seven of Clubs(TricMagic)
Right now, I'm hoping I translated the html code correctly.

As to the question of cards and my voting ability: They are not connected, as far as I can tell.  I assume the cards are related to someone else's role.
I seem to recall that either Hector or FallacyofUrist likes card games, so it's probably one of their roles.

@Hector & Fallacy: Do either of your roles have anything to do with cards?

Well, maybe we can try something...

@GhostHector: Hey Hector, did somebody kill you?

Maximum Spin is hiding in the shadows.

That's an interesting thing to call sleeping.

This covers me as well.  Going back to work with a cold sucks.

Reads List
TricMagic is gonna die end of Day 1.  So Town unless still alive Day 2. Sorry Tric.
Ghosts

Egan_BW is dead and thus not worth analyzing.  Apparently killed themselves before the game began.
Hector13 is dead and thus not worth analyzing. Hector's death is still unexplained. Despite the fact that I don't want to waste brain power on ghosts, Hector13 has actually made some good points in Day 1, which he absolutely doesn't have to be doing.

Toonyman is town. Toonymosis.

Imp is town. Playing the game, probably looking to give out gifts during the Night, like Santa Claus. And Santa Claus is Town, obviously.

Jim_Groovester is Slightly Town, and his posts are like the best of Christmas Presents.

Elephant Parade is very slightly town, seems to be trying to figure things out.

VermilionSkies exists.

Crystalizedmire exists. I know from experience that I mostly can't read Crystalizedmire.

FallacyofUrist needs to play better, and looks scummy for not playing better.

Maximum Spin has largely posted things I imagine he wrote before the game started. There was a bit of panic over someone touching his stuff, but I don't see how that points to him being town. But now going through stuff. Maybe should ask for a replacement? Eh, unvote

Of note, Verm and Jack were maf partners (and I put deep focus on Verm elim fairly early)
Tric and CrystalizedMire were maf partners (different team, enemies of Verm/Jack).

Toony was a third party SK.  (who also never killed.... Maf nearly never killed that game, especially not early.)

This was Jack's starting role (many things changed as the game played out)

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

EuchreJack

Nah Role: Votes, Daytime, Limitation, Kill.

[auto](Votes) Hmm: You have 1.5 votes instead of the normal 1 vote.

(This works as a tie-breaker)

[one-shot](Limitation)(Daytime)(Kill) Nope: Kill target player.

(Mafiakill)(Daytime) Eh: Kill target player during the day.

Note: You cannot use a mafiakill again this cycle, and you cannot use this if your team has already mafiakilled this cycle.

(Votes) Ah!: Target player gains .1 of a vote.

(Votes) Well...: Target player loses .1 of a vote.

[Item][Card](Distributed) Jack of Hearts: This does nothing on its own.

How I characterize that EJ earliest D1 play .... and I like it

Abrupt.  Focused.  Helpful.  Goal-orientated.  Mildly/slightly apologetic, "Not to interrupt" and "Now to head back to work before I get fired." "Right now, I'm hoping I translated the html code correctly."  Oddly tentative, "I seem to recall..." "Well, maybe we can try something..."  Very tentative to vote; voted as an example and unvoted even on someone he was sus of:  "Maximum Spin has largely posted things I imagine he wrote before the game started. There was a bit of panic over someone touching his stuff, but I don't see how that points to him being town. But now going through stuff. Maybe should ask for a replacement? Eh, unvote"

"Nervy and careful" - A reasonable match.

EJ's posts this game:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Important: Anyone else with the "Family" Genre, we need to publicly claim which ability we plan to use.

Claim: I have the Family Genre.
Those with this genre know what the abilities are, so we don't have to describe them. But we DO need to claim our use of them.

EP, I usually try to engage with players who have had less attention as a priority, but eventually interact with everyone. This game might warrant a slightly different approach.


Everyone,  do you think it's worth us trying to clear through the auction to get the Sheriff's Office? What are the arguments for/against?

The first two items are crap and I would suspect anyone trying to grab them. I personally want Smithy, and Hospital is good.
...
So, it ain't worth it, is what I am saying.

Do we know if we're giving up only our Day 1 vote or our vote for the remainder of the game for the auction?

While I personally would like to be Unlynchable, I think it's anti-town to progress any further towards allowing a player to "Nope" out of the Lynch. Town should own the Day, after all.

I'm inclined to think the Imp vs. Elephant spat is Town vs. town, but will still modestly review for signs of scumminess. Elephant is currently looking more townie.

Also: Tric does something stupid = Tric is Town.

Juicebox isn't impressing me, but juicebox didn't impress me last time they were town, so NAI.

Hyper needs to do more to impressive. Gambler's fallacy alone makes me think they might be town.

I like NJW because they like me. I will largely be judging them on their night actions.

Fallacy isn't scaring me, so probably town.

Crystal is fair and so I am going to townread.

If I forgot someone, they're probably a scummy lurker

Actually VermilionSkies and NQT are fine for now.

Do we know if we're giving up only our Day 1 vote or our vote for the remainder of the game for the auction?

Only for the day.

Hm, then why not enjoy the auction then I guess. Day 1 is fucking useless anyways, might as well have some fun.

In comparison:  More relaxed.  Less focused.  Not directly apologetic.  Less careful.

I still wanna watch Jack but I don't want Jack elim today, and I agree, this is potentially town.  Medium confidence.  It's definitely not CYOS2 Jack.    It's also not the Jack of FBYOR6, the Jack I wanted to team up with so bad.  That game was long ago though.  See you D2, Jack, hope you make it there.

[Crystalizedmire]

Smithy

[Elephant Parade]

Elephant Parade I'm also scumleaning as well. I don't like that they're tunneling Imp, who is my main town read, and I also don't like how they have been pushing people to participate in the auction but haven't really committed to it themselves. It definitely could be a ploy to get town to use up their votes and get more voting power for the scumteam

After Butchery was bought I pushed people to buy Smithy, and specifically Smithy, because, if left unbought, it could foil the lynch. I also pushed a specific scheme that would, in theory, have let people buy abilities without changing the result of the lynch. I otherwise haven't been pushing people to buy abilities, to my recollection.


Town Lean
NJW: pushing the game forward without fluffing his posts; some odd stuff in reads but we always anti-mindmeld; I could change my mind later but executing them D1 would be completely absurd

OK
CM: not a ton to go on, but I haven't seen her usual scumtells and I don't think scum!CM would be this forward with role information; however, increasingly unhappy about lack of nonmechanical posting
Hyper: was absent for a while but never pretended not to be; now more active; no strong impression of content otherwise
TricMagic: has barely posted, I still can't read Tric very well
EuchreJack: play reminds me unpleasantly of CYOS2 but I felt a bit better about him once he gave reads; would like to see more
juicebox: absent throughout most of the day but was literally offline

Hmmmm
NQT: mechanics focus, acting like a spectator

Scum Lean
VermillionSkies: not seeking to engage with anyone; parked vote on lurker despite being borderline lurker themself; skimming previous games, refusal to question people matches scum activity pattern and goes against town activity pattern; they did at least vote FoU with a question but only after I called them out
Imp: posting a lot but barely engaged with other people's posts at first, which is out of character for her; absolute anti-mindmeld; scumreading active players and townreading lurkers feels like MVM4 all over again
FallacyofUrist: has essentially only posted about RVS and mechanics; basically vanished when things got serious; Imp is emitting more scum signals but FoU is emitting absolutely zero town ones

[Imp]

Next deep dive:  CrystalizedMire.

From a previous semi-recent town game, first many posts:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Crystalizedmire, if you had a kill, would you use it on me or Fallacy? And can you please explain your choice?

Fallacy is always a little suspicious to me regardless of alignment so Im not really sure about their alignment. I also want to be more lenient with them. So if I had a kill, I would kill you.

Interesting phrasing here. You seem to imply suspicion of Fallacy, but opt to kill juicebox without commenting on what his alignment could be. What are your thoughts on juicebox now?

I have no idea what both of their alignments are, especially juicebox's since they've made like two posts. But, I would rather shoot juice out of leniency for Fallacy.

magmamater: is there any reason why youre not sharing your top maf pick?
And is the player you think is maf, juicebox?

Imp the fruit You mentioned is a so called Fruit vendor role (Encyclopedia Link: wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=Fruit_Vendor)
A fruit vendor is a role that can target a player each night and gift them a fruit (or similiar, ergo an more or less useless item that fits the flavour of the game) anonymously .
With Mafia kills usually being not multi-task able, this leads to the fruit vendor showing themself as town to the people it gifts the items to as soon as those discussion/revelation happens in the public thread or certain private group chats

It's also important to know this:  Bay12 mafia games often tend towards high complexity, we already should not expect that any individual mafia (or town or third party) player definitely has only 1 action, or that mafiakill definitely is not free or that the mafiakill definitely cannot be done with another action that may even affect a different target.  If that kind of power is in the hands of evil, some sort of balancing power will be in the hands of good (or the game's bastard, I didn't see that in our OP though).

Suspicious post. It's incredibly standard (like 99+% of games) to make mafiakills free, the OP even states that mafiakills are free this game. This post reads like mafia trying to convince town that he doesn't know anything about the mafia abilities, or trying too hard not to scumslip.

But the literal fruit vendor's role is to act as a named townie? So it would be easy to assume that the role purpose is same here so its not really a scum slip but someone forgetting the rules. Also, where did you get the idea that the default is free mafiakills? Usually they arent free.

Kind of an issue Magma when I don't know who you're talking about. Also why in the world would they stop if you haven't even placed a vote on them? Reads like you're just throwing shade and hoping town tears apart their own, while you can lay back and not say anything that incriminates you.

We don't even have everyone here yet given it's Sunday. I'm keeping a close eye on you Anime.exe.

I'm kind of baffled that anyone even cares about my hidden read. I'll share it later. Who do you think it is?

Why wouldnt we care who dies and who lives?
Im not even the first person to point these posts out, nor are these the only posts that struck me as suspicious. Why have you not replied to 4mask's, Imp's, and Tricmagic's post?
AP and Vermillion: What are your current reads?

AP and Vermillion: What are your current reads?

I believe you should be able to see my reads right above your post, CM.
Speaking of, you're the person I forgot.
CM seems fairly content to lie low this game, but has more information out there than half of the people here. Unsure, but leaning townie currently.

I read the readlist, and thought someone else wrote it. I hadnt had the time to post since im vacationing in a different timezone than to what im used to.
And also because a lot of things im about to say is already said.
Magma mater: You want me to shut up because you think Im scum but you cant build a proper case against me because I dont post a lot. What do you want me to do? Wanting scum to shut up is worse for town imo since you cant investigate who their partner is. For the record, im town and youre being evasive with questions.
I could see Fallacy and Imp being teamed. Maximum spin and Fallacy too. My reasoning is that chats are closed during daytime and they need to communicate with eachother inthread.

Crystalizedmire, if you had a kill, would you use it on me or Fallacy? And can you please explain your choice?

Fallacy is always a little suspicious to me regardless of alignment so Im not really sure about their alignment. I also want to be more lenient with them. So if I had a kill, I would kill you.

Could you please elaborate on this Suspicion on Fallacy?

There's something always off aboug his playstyle, like the time they claimed theyre vanilla town and they were superman.
Re:"teamed"
Im using that word to mean sharing a chat; Imp, Maximum Spin, and Fallacy could be sharing a chat without directly being maf.

I still wanna know why you suspect that of the 2/3 of us, more than you may suspect it of others.  What are you noticing that made it worth speaking about?

I dont actually suspect any one of you more than the other becuase me thinking that you guys are teamed is based on the interaction where Maximum Spin tried to get Fallacy over his insecurity. You defended Fallacy and placed a lot of trust in them while Maximum Spin tried to have Fallacy get over his insecurities. It felt like I walked into a private chat.

I vote no lynch

Why?
I would rather have a townie get elimminated rather than no elimination.
For those who think magma mater is maf, who do you suspect being their partner?

{NOTE, I EDITED OUT A MASSIVE SPOILER}
Magma Mater:
1. Instead of thinking how suspicious they are, I try to find out those that seem like his teamates.
2. I thought it was juicebox you kept talking about because you aked me what I thought of juicebox after my first post.
3. I wanted to talk about something other than you. Anyways, here are my reads that arent null:

Town lean:
Imp is probably town. She's inqusitive and trying to help town gain more information
Scum lean:
Anime Pigeon: I dont like their string of posts because it is quite lacking

4. Two things can be true at once. My posts lack substance because everything I want to say is already said. My lack of posting is because Im on vacation. I was trying to make sense of an interaxtion I saw. Im currently trying to see more players who could be possible be teamed. Im not completely sure Imp, Fallacy, and Maximum Spin because it is based on one interaction.
5. I find your playstyle abrasive but I cant really think of you being a mafia member as I genuinely cant think anyone who could be your partner except maybe Fallacy.

Re: Conclusion
Everytime I pop into the thread, it seems like all there is to talk about is you.
Anime Pigeon: Now what about who you think is scum and town? Who do you think shares a chat with another?
Imp: What do you remember of playing with 4maskwolf?

And I'm curious why you read Max as town, when he's done basically no hunting or questioning of his own thus far, aside from telling me I should be more confident, which, I'm not sure counts, both because I'm already feeling pretty confident and because it's not really hunting.

Honestly I think that maximum spin was genuine when he said that you should be more confident. And I dont think maf!maximum would act like that.

CM was just maf in CYOS, with TricMagic as her partner.  Earliest posts from there:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Imp playing is playing Warehouse 13? Who would've thunk?/j

Anyways, Jim Groovester, why are you not a ghost?
@Ghosts(if you feel comfortable in sharing): What's your alignment?

CM, how worried are you about having your actions cancelled?

Very worried, I don't want to have a repeat of BYOM or FBYOR 6.

To whom it may concern, I was going to discuss a bit with you here.  Seems unneeded now.  Maybe give a bit more time unless you're sure you know what you're doing and what I am doing, and what I can do.

Or not.

What were you going to discuss about?

Imp, do you have a team-chat again this game?

stressful ahhing

So, I don't have a team-chat.  I was in a private chat, with Tric.  It had complex rules and I don't know who created it.  I was shocked to learn about it and it needed a LOT of questions asked because we could have gamed that system pretty darn sweetly, to my eyes, if either of us had wanted or even needed to.  It was designed to be puzzled out and understood how it could be used, and I was deep in questions with the mod and making plans when... well.  I was Tric'd.  Hopefully nicely.  Tric, hope we can save you, sound like you need saving.

What do you mean by "designed to be puzzled out"? There's no harm in telling us besides wasting some amount of time.

To whom it may concern, I was going to discuss a bit with you here.  Seems unneeded now.  Maybe give a bit more time unless you're sure you know what you're doing and what I am doing, and what I can do.

Or not.

What were you going to discuss about?

Would whoever created that chat and put me/Tric in it speak up and discuss that, so I can decide if and how to answer this question of Egan's?

I'm Egan?

I don't care about the ghosts, they can't vote/be voted and they can't mafiakill according to the condition.

In addition, the fact that ghost players can just "ignore the thread and not post if they want to" with the mod's permission implies to me that they are low impact. Most likely here to be a nuisance and confuse.

I think that may be a consequence if my reticence to play in the first place.

Ghosts can use and be targeted by actions though, essentially taking away the power of the mafia to eliminate players with a kill.

Seems to be awfully town-sided, no?

The fact that ghosts have to be killed properly to alignment flip implies that not all ghosts are aligned with town

Can ghosts get infected? Because you can target ghosts. Or at least the game start post says you can, I don’t know the specifics of your buff, so you can do that if you’re worried about infecting the living.

PPE: are you responsible for the ghosts, Egan? If so, can you tell us if they ca get infected?

Nope.

Which question were you answering?

Sighs

I stop there.  Crystal is not clearly maf based on play.  I'm going with my gut and imp-nature on this one; let's help and protect Crystal if possible and seems reasonable.  Crystal, I personally can't mechanically help you much tonight that I know of.  We all already gamble a lot on the auction and CrystalizedMire being town-true.  I waver and fear, but gamble continues; in for an imp, in for the whole of Hades.  CrystalizedMire is town or I already steered this course very wrong.

CM: not a ton to go on, but I haven't seen her usual scumtells and I don't think scum!CM would be this forward with role information; however, increasingly unhappy about lack of nonmechanical posting

Yeah.  Amusingly, to me at least, I more agree with some of your posting; why not go for an auction item if reasonable not to; and the lack of non-mechanical posting bugs me too.  However, that's not a CM scumtell that I have noticed before.  I think it's something else and I essentially am betting the game that I'm okay with it.
