I was SK, and had spot on reads on mafia, and won the game, was not you in that game homer?

PS: @Kingm: you act like you don't know why im voting you.. that's bad because you do. You said so yourself a few posts back...self-deprecating
"stupid vote history", "shooting my in the foot", "yeah I know this just put the noose around my neck even harder"
Also your comment "this is after he has defended me like in 3 other post" - acting nose bleeding because you left out the 2 most recent posts where i called your scum behavior out.. why did you not react to the reasoning there? There, you just acted like an ostrich putting your head down in the sand..."i didn't see that" :roll:

Let me recap:

Until the end of D1 i had you not listed as "high scum potential", felt the "Let's all vote riskmaster" reason a bit too much "grammar prosecution" (but i do have Annie as town) and i know your "low energy" period was real. So that's not the reason for voting you..it's your chaotic stress that is manifesting now - with a unprovoked "im vanilla town" claim.

It started when Strike came to Ragian's defense giving me the idea me and Rag was just a classic T-T D1 slapfight. Tunnel vs rabbit hole. Followed by Ragians honest reaction a few posts back. Hard to fake.. So that's Ragian + Annie to be 2 likely townies that both are voting you..

Then comes your chaotic vote switching pattern to the surface;

You went like this:

let's all vote Riskmaster
(unvotes)
votes Trafstard
(unvotes again)
votes Riskmaster again
(unvote again)
votes no-lynch
votes SoN!c


But the real tell for me in all that chaotic movement was the quick unvote on Trafalgar. It screemed "im voting my scumbuddy D1 now just to distance myself later on in the game"

And in hindsight all your chaotic voting movement just looked like testing the town waters (scum motivated) with that set-up in mind (i'll post a few votes D1 with one being my scumbuddy to distance later)


Then you said:

“fu*k I forgot what I said like 2min ago” (do you believe that yourself??? LMAO :lol: )

it's just stress manifesting if you ask me. The pressure of being scum and realising your vote on your scumbuddy Trafstard was not such a good idea as it seemed..

And then you say:

“maybe Trafs answer was weak, but he is saying exactly what I am thinking”


For me that is agreement + justification. A very strong signal that there is alignment of mindset between you and Traf
and i think Traf is scum..

+ Your flip would break the game wide open.

First :
Your and Annie's vote and what that implies..if Kingm flips scum: It would make Annie almost instant confirmed town status (if there is only one mafia faction). And i believe there is just one faction because i think LC would make it matching flavour with the television series. I never saw them but from what i read, it's "we versus them"..

Same goes for you. That's 2 town for me then. Jolly

Trafstard on the other hand would look real bad..Kingm’s exact words: “Traf’s answer was weak, but he is saying exactly what I am thinking.” That line only exists because I pushed Traf. If Kingm is scum, Traf is almost certainly his partner.

Then Riskmaster is most likely just a townie who is awol all the time..

So Kingm's flip doesn’t just remove one player — it validates or destroys half the active players’ entire Day 1 stories at once including yours (and mine). If Kingm should flip town, his very sus chaotic moments become “nervous town having a meltdown” yes, but also: all the people who ignored them look bad. Either way, half the thread’s analysis dies or gets crowned.

You literally spelled out why this flip is nuclear :
"Let’s say that KingM — as he says — flips town if lynched. I’d be concerned with… who was on the lynch? … who was not on the lynch? … how do the people on the lynch conduct themselves as we go forward?" You even listed the four exact things town should analyse post-flip. Everyone surely has read that. So the moment the hammer drops, the entire thread becomes a checklist against that post.
If he flips town → the three people who pushed hardest just mislynched a townie after 18 days of analysis..
If he flips scum → the three people on the wagon get instant town cred, Traf becomes a screaming scumbuddy, and anyone who pushed "no-lynch" or lurkers instead look terrible. Especially those who didn't jump on this wagon. Like Charle? Where is the Wagon Jumper when you need him? Why is he not following you here?


Anyway: This flip gives town a confirmed alignment + night actions + a real Day 2 with actual information instead of "he switched votes like 6 times, is that scum or just a very messy kingm having a real bad D1?" that will burn to many night resources for town.. All town PR will wanna take a look at Kingm.. And that messy? Kingm? I find that very hard to believe. It's stress manifesting.

Right now we (town) are all guessing in the dark one way or the other. That is the downside of being a townie. You just never know. But the moment Kingm has been lynched — and we see the flip role, we know 100% and the entire D1 post history becomes evidence.

Let’s actually get something done today instead of kicking the can to a no-lynch night and regretting it tomorrow. Also to break the unwritten "no lynch on D1 rule" that has become trendy in the last games but destroys half the fun.

Ahh do I actually have to write a good answer vs you Sonic, f********, I regret getting energy back lol, because you are to good at this, you just play townie as scum so much better then anyone else I have seen, like you almost get me to believe that I am scum, its that lvl.

But do not fall for his manipulation tactics guys, I believe that Annie and Ragian is town, but no way that Sonic is on the same side.

I'm here!

Front end of the posting pause was when things were going towards a kingm vote which I have been in support of. Along with other fresh suspicions being aired that I wanted to give room for.

Later end of the pause was me having a fit in my office. You can hear things like "NOT A LOT TO COMMENT ON?!?!!" and "did your mother not pack enough critical thinking in your lunch today?!?! This is the Anti Corruption unit, if there was *a lot* to comment on this would be the sit on your ass eating crisps unit!" and a lot of "GET YOUR GADDAMN REPORTS IN" coming from behind the door.

Need I remind you?
SCUM THRIVES IN THE SHADOWS

So, in AC-12, you can either GET YOUR GADDAMN REPORTS IN or be providing cover for scum. There is no third option.

Not a lot to comment on? Sonic presented the group with a whole report from a mystery guy! Not a lot to comment on? Charle, who's main contribution was a tip about not claiming when not under pressure has now made a claim under no pressure. Not a lot to comment on? Rags and sonic are moving on after a blow up. Nothing at all to comment on there!

I need a walk.

And btw, only stress I have you freaking rodent is that now I have to play "your game", but I will, not going down without a fight, but I need to sleep a bit first.
You will for sure find a way to spin it to get this to sound scummy, because that's exactly what you have done so far.

Whatever I say you will find a way to spin it to King = scum, I know you, you are a fucking politicans, can you maybe fix the gas prices? Please mate

Kingm is cracking: all the signs are there: mixed emotions: Complimenting me ("you're too good", "“you almost get me to believe I am scum”"), insulting me ("fucking rodent", "politician"), and concessions ("regret getting energy back")...+ asking for extra time (" I need to sleep a bit first")..

All with high psychological stress signals (self-deprecating comments), (“I forgot what I said 2 minutes ago”),..


Notice something else: Kingm's defense isn’t actually about the case arguments i presented.. It’s just “Sonic is manipulating people” and “don’t fall for it.”
That’s literally what scum says when they can’t really address the points being made.

ATTENTION ATTENTION!!

I am writing this appeal not out of personal dislike or because he voted on me, but because I have serious concerns that an individual known as Sonic is engaging in sustained, sophisticated manipulative behavior while presenting a carefully created image of being harmless, funny, charismatic, and “one of the good ones.”The problem is this:He is very skilled at manipulation, and he is using that skill to cause real harm to my mental being.

He mirrors the exact humor, slang, and even typing quirks of whoever he is currently targeting. It's for sure a social-engineering tactic.
Whenever serious accusations or pushback start to come, he rapidly pivots to extremely public loud post that is made to get people to think about somebody else.

But being charming does not cancel out being predatory.The fact that almost nobody can believe “the funny blue hedgehog guy” is actually the problem… Is exactly why he has been so successful at this for so long, and every time we get a new player in a mafia game he is right in there use his clever tactics.

So what do you want me to defend? like I have explained every little thing that I have done.
I almost want to be lynched today, so people can open their eyes and then get you D2, buuuuuuuuuuuut that would make for a really boring 2-3 months with no mafia, so I will fight.

What just happened (the last 45 minutes)?

SoN!c 5:15 pm – dropped the “Kingm is cracking” post. It called out the compliments, insults, concessions flip-flop in real time and nailed that Kingm is no longer defending the case, just screaming “manipulation!”

Kingm 5:49 pm – “ATTENTION ATTENTION!!” wall of text. This is the biggest over-escalation of the entire game. He turns me (SoN!c) into a “predatory social-engineer” who mirrors slang, uses charm as a weapon, and is harming his “mental being.” Classic “the accuser is the real villain” play when the wagon is closing in.

Kingm 5:53 pm – immediate follow-up quoting SoN!c and basically saying:
“I’ve explained everything… I almost want to be lynched so you all see I’m town and then we get Sonic D2… but I’ll fight because otherwise the game will be boring for 2-3 months.”

Compliment → rodent insult → politician jab → gas prices request.
All in one afternoon. Iconic.

But taht second line is devastating for police analysts.. because saying “I almost want to be lynched” + “boring game without me” is the kind of self-sabotage that screams either:

A) Scum who knows the flip is coming and is trying reverse psychology, or
B) Town completely tilted and no longer playing rationally (Self-Sabotage Level: Expert)


B)IS IT A REVERSE PSY-OP OR IS IT A COMPLETELY TILTED KINGM?
Kingm wrote: Thu Mar 12, 2026 10:49 am he is using that skill to cause real harm to my mental being.
Notice: You went full conspiracy theory in two posts (2) and only scum under pressure say: “You’re manipulating people” instead of saying: “your logic is wrong because X, Y, Z”

This is exactly the “flip breaks the game wide open” moment we talked about. If Kingm is scum, this meltdown + the Traf alignment line + the quick unvote on Traf becomes textbook towards our town win. If he somehow flips town… well, we just watched a tilted townie have a full mental breakdown in D1 and we’ll have to deal with that on D2 but we won't have to waste our night powers on Kingm at least..

The 5-Part evidence tapes tagged as:

Episode 1 – “The super super super important vanilla”
Episode 2 – “doing the SK Flex While the Noose Tightens”
Episode 3 – “The Trafstard Distancing Speedrun (30-second unvote edition)”
Episode 4 – “The fu*k I Forgot What I Said 2 Minutes Ago”
Episode 5 – “The Flip That Will Break the Game Wide Open (coming this weekend)”

whether Kingm flips scum or town, this D1 performance is going in the hall of fame.

One spectator already summed it up perfectly:
“From super super super important vanilla to full SK flex to ‘fix the gas prices’ under 48 hours.

My complaints against kingm- a recap

He hints at bandwagon, I poke, he recounts his statement wrong, I'm sold on a lynch, he digs deeper grave with another unreliable statement comment, digs grave deeper with premature claim.

This is more evidence than I hoped to be able to go by Day 1. It's still far from a certainty and not so much worse than other allegations.

THAT SAID

I'm so mad at the non commenters I'm ready to risk killing the damn Dr to send one of them packing. My suggestion would be Cod on a last in first out basis.
Keep whatever information we have on king- his beef with sonic etc.

THAT SAID

The risk of hitting a power role is real and if king is a townie, I believe he's a vanilla one and I like that risk reduction.

THAT SAID

With our current number of votes, it would have to be unanimous. Which means a self vote which means nothing happens. So, above all, GET YOUR GADDAMN REPORTS IN!!

What will we learn? Town on town violence? But You’re still voting Kingm and you’re the one who first asked me to elaborate on why his flip breaks the game wide open, so I know you’re not jumping ship but just making sure I’m not some scum trying to railroad you.

Kingm’s flip is the nuclear option no matter what. Yours or mine is just a side quest trivia D1 because Kingm's flip functions as a master filter:

Scum flip → validates the three voters (you, annieh, me) as town, exposes Traf as high-probability partner, and converts the entire D1 history from speculation to evidence. Set's town on the right path towards victory.
Town flip → falsifies the three primary voters’ (you, annieh, me) reads, forces immediate re-evaluation of everyone who defended or ignored the wagon. But it saves a night target action for cop who has to check such play

All in all; Kingm satisfies the exact post-flip checklist you wrote yesterday:
“who was on the lynch? who was not? how do the people on the lynch conduct themselves?”

Now contrast that with lynching you or me:

Me or you lynched: Scum flip → one confirmed scum removed yes, but the Kingm wagon analysis remains untested. The other two wagon members retain their full set of unverified reads. No other information gained.
Me or you lynched: Town flip → worst case scenario, the focal point (Kingm) survives, the remaining wagon members who are actively searching lose credibility to other town members without any new alignment data, and all of town wastes a lynch on a wagon leader while the original suspect pool remains untouched. In short you lost an entire day of search activity + an active town searcher.. This is the scum wet dream basically.

So Kingm’s flip maximises partition of the entire player pool (maximises intelligence gathering) and retroactively scores every prior statement. A lynch on the wagon leaders does not.

I agree with Annieh, we will need all voters to reach L-8 with so many AWOL players..

Kingm is at 4 (SoN!c, Ragian, annieh, Djfireside if im correct) so :

@Hjelp : voting Cofari is quite useless this late in the game day. Cofari will never reach 8 votes..
@Kong and Charle: time to take a stance on Kingm's flip? The time is now..
@Homerjay: you already stated you have no problem with lynching Kingm i believe? Time to do or do not is here

@the lurkers: play or have the decency to inform the game master LC your out
@Trafstard: no worries im not counting on you to lynch kingm

Or vote no lynch but don't regret it later..

I think Ragian is town ever since his honest emotion (towards something only i know - my questions my arguments). So i think we are both town but i can't be sure...no townie ever can be sure about another townsman. I think that goes without saying..

Anyway: my gut feeling says Kingm is busted. For all the reasons stated above. If im wrong i know i'll be in a shitstorm D2. So let see the flip. Even if i die because of it im convinced this is towns best path to victory.

I'm thikning loud.
Sorry about many quotes ...but I'm still a bit conserned about the "friendship" Ragian - SoN!c
Also conserned regarding a lot of good reasoning deriving motivation for the votes made (that's why all the "....." in the vote-
quotes)
Annieh seems to me of being honest except if I read the first post regarding a player to vote on. That is a bit bothering.
Not sure about Djf vote .. not much reasoning motivated.

However I did post

yes "... it came out of Ragian somewhat defending DJF in the sense that he said suspicions on DJF thus far are pretty bullshit ..." - It was a short compilation of the DJF-Ragian discussion that occured. At the moment, the conversation rearding DJF-Ragian is nothing reliable to built upon (more than that Ragian sort to speak defended DJF) and it would be a "long shot" nailed by a sharp shooter Annie in "Annie get your gun" (but not annieh) to think that DJF and Ragian are scum only because of what was previous discussed in the thread.

I will vote, however, because our deadline is looming, and all we've learned so far is untangible. I mean, it's good for the long run, but it doesn't move us forward when no one else is going for it.

I don't like Charle's behaviour around our cafuffle, and I don't like that kingm and hjelp have voted for someone who's not here (i.e. lynching blind giving no solid info to town). I could also be persuaded to vote for Traf or Strike given how they've been here but not been here. Strike, however, said that he was very busy and I believe that. I think I'm going with kingm for now. He has voted for a blind lynch, and he already has a vote to his name (which is lucky for hjelp).

Vote KingM

Ragian is essentially telling everyone: “If I die tonight, start your thinking from these assumptions.” That is either very bold and super intelligent scum play to do this right now, or it is just simple genuinely town play (solving the game wanting a record of their reasoning).

To post both of those things (honest emotion AND town-motivated behavior) right now....i can't see a scum thinking of that, not even Ragian. Sorry Rags but that means you got Good boy points!

And if Ragian is town then we have Kingm,
.....

This is a rapid suspicion withdrawal, with the desire to convince others of something that is just not the truth or to just generate doubts. A typical scum move. Innocent people usually commit longer to their beliefs.

It makes a total of four and all of them have voted on Kingm.

If these gang of four are scum then Kingm likely flips Town.
and annieh -"The risk of hitting a power role is real and if king is a townie, I believe he's a vanilla one and I like that risk reduction." it maybe isn't risky if annieh is scum too.

I haven't yet search for reasoning (posts made) in this game if Scums are more likely to lynch D1 or Townies are more likely to lynch D1.
With that said - It's risky to point finger at a bandwagon.

Sorry about many quotes ...but I'm still a bit conserned about the "friendship" Ragian - SoN!c
Also conserned regarding a lot of good reasoning deriving motivation for the votes made (that's why all the "....." in the vote-
quotes)
Annieh seems to me of being honest except if I read the first post regarding a player to vote on. That is a bit bothering.
Not sure about Djf vote .. not much reasoning motivated.

However I did post :
....
So
- let's pretend that Ragian and Djf are scum (weak sort of defending)
- SoN!c "friendship" Ragian (good points)
- annieh changing a bit regarding "vote for someone who said nothing at all before either of them."
- Djf hooks on the bandwagon

I get you. I had the same concerns. But think if Rag and Annie are town... then it makes more sense.

Why would Annie and Rag and DJ - lets say they are all scum - vote Kingm now? Even if there is 2 scums between them? Makes no sense.

Because: If Kingm flips town all eyes on them..

AND: This is exactly one of the reasons why the Kingm flip cracks the game wide open.

Like DJ: he is in the clear corner if Kingm flips scum (he joined fast). And so on..

So think about that if your town. This is a huge make or break moment for town. If kingm is scum then his scumpartners are in real doubt right now if they should throw him under the bus y/n.. Scum cracks everywhere.. And Think about town PR roles going into N1 in a no lynch scenario or in a flipped Kingm scenario.. it would be a world of difference

This is going to be a bit of a dramatic change so please bear with me.

I stand by what I've said about Kingm. I'll add I think his appeals to sympathy are inconsistent (sonic's in game comments are bad for my mental health, being voted out is bad for my mental health, I can't browse an online forum because I'm in bed too much) and out of line. I would wager that few people here are strangers to serious depression or similar. It is scummy to use this kind of argument.

Rags said earlier that we learn nothing from a blind lynch and that may be so. Lynching a lurker does achieve one important goal- tell the scum that there is no safety in silence.

Sonic says we learn all sorts of things from his role reveal including that sonic would be validated as town. I disagree, a corrupt cop would be absolutely fine with an "anyone but me" vote. It's day 1, a long day but a day with the most uncertainty, the most room for someone to say "oops, guess we goofed it."

No amount of day one sketchiness can surpass the sketchiness of breaking the game mechanics to an extent the town's daytime power is crippled. And it is a game, games are meant to be played and enjoyed. Kingm, in his jerk personal appeal statements, says he wants to play and has started playing. It would suck to get the boot day one with a Cofari still in the game.

I'm not saying forgive and forget. I'm saying we take a stance against lurkers and put pressure on all their asses.

I don't think anyone is getting 8 votes anyway, and if this is a terrible idea, tell me why and I'll be back on Kingm.

UNVOTE Kingm

I said hi to General Cod and he didn't say hi back. Last In First Out is my best attempt at transparent random. I'd rather give a little grace to our most sus player day 1 than let this lurking nonsense slide.

VOTE General Cod

I can answer this one, just by odds you are more likely to lynch a town that scum D1. Thats just the way the cookie crumbles but as I noted when the day first started, IMO and what has been explained by someone, I think Son!c just a few posts up, you gain knowledge from the lynch especially in a forum game like this where you can go back and pick apart comments in the later days and find reasoning and repeat behavior.

As for my vote and reasoning is two fold:
1) I have my suspicions of Charle (My vote at the time) Kong, and Son!c but I no one was coming along with me on it so I watched the rest of the field AND...
2) KingM started contradicting themselves and acting the fool, I havent seen that role show up here and hope its not part of this game but would suspect them that role since they were so erratic and drawing attention. I didnt just vote them because everyone else did, I voted them for the same reasons everyone else did.

Pressure causes cracks and who knows what you find in those cracks. Doesnt mean you need to hammer a nail in afterwards.

I can sympathize with Annie and her point and share the ideal but I am staying put for now just based on the behavior I laid out in 2.
Always question things given too easily.

Terrible idea Annieh.. We are under 48 hours to deadline... your general cod vote at this stage is nothing more then a "no kingm lynch" vote..

If however the motivation comes from a fun game idea then i agree on the no lynch. I like Kingm a lot. And i want him as long as possible in the game for that reason. But in the end losing is no fun and im sure if it's the other way around (me knowing kingm IS BUSTED) then i would not be happy if he let me "slide" because "fun" reasons.. Its a game. Your ment to win it otherwise win or lose is meaningless. The fun of the game is still winning it (in a fun way) but winning nevertheless.

Trying to catch up on this but seems like a lot of grasping at straws D1.

Do we know whether scum know who each other are? Previous games that info only came into play N1. Has LC let us know what that gameplay is

Also LOOSE CANON you never answered me on this:
