Re: Mega Man Mafia [Day 1]
Which community? These online communities are one of my favourite parts of modern life. I first got involved with such on Lostpedia forums, when my wife and I were HEAVILY into LOST. The relationships we have formed since then have changed our lives, and we have watched others' lives get changed as well... more than one MARRIAGE due to online community involvement. It's still so astounding to me.

Re: Mega Man Mafia [Day 1]
So, what are we dealing with here? Closed setup, and we don't even know which roles are on the bad team.
So, what is the method of catching someone on Day 1? Ask questions and hope someone slips up?

I was putting that out there to start talking about something in a game where we have almost nothing to go on. Not every question is asked because I don't have an answer already.Then posts a bunch of questions on how to approach this game: What are we dealing with here? How do we even mafia in this game?
Again, going with conversation questions pertinent to the lack of info we have, to see if anyone goes on-topically pingy.Then asks, "have recruitment decisions been made?"
Which is just the kind of thing I was looking to find when I brought up recruitment-related stuff earlier.
I read and understood the rules just fine. I didn't say anything out of ignorance.I don't view Long Con as being an ignorant player, which is why all his questions confuse me. Is he bad and trying to look like an ignorant townie? Or is he really that bad at reading the rules? I would be okay with voting Long Con today.

Re: Mega Man Mafia [Day 1]
See, Turnip Head gets me.Turnip Head wrote: ↑Sat Sep 22, 2018 1:56 pmWhat would you like to know?
Truly, we could write an essay on Long Con and how much he enjoys hearing about himself. There's nothing that pleases a Con more than to know he's one step ahead of the curve; whatever is cool, Con is cooler!, and he knows it!, and that's maybe the worst part. You can't sneak up on a Con with flattery. His disarmed bashfulness at your compliments will be well-acted, but emotionally unearned. Internally he's already scheming about how to get even Connier.
Many people think he's this one thing, but really he's a lot of other things too, and that should begin to whet your curiosity's appetite for how many layers this Con onion has. He's quick. He's feisty. He's flirty. He's vulnerable. He's got a strong sense of self-efficacy. He is constantly searching for his own worth.
He doesn't need to know how to catch bad guys, he just needs to be around them. He dangles from the canopy of the thread, and when he sees a threat, he envelops himself in his conly aura, gently massaging his suspicions in a dark and lonely corner.
Other times you'll see a Con active in the wild, casually tossing dingleberries at the dougalls and the jays manging about down on the forest floor. This Con is often the most fun to observe, and yet the least useful from a practical game-solving standpoint. But Con doesn't care about being practical. Con lives in the wind.
Perhaps my favorite flavor is comically deranged Con. This Con crosses the alignment spectrum, so you can maybe catch a glimpse of one be he FEB, town, or indy. This is a Con who has lost his grasp on reality and is just spinning his gears whichever way his current existential crisis takes him. He could turn the whole game into an ashy pile of chaotic rubble, crashing to its knees. You really never know.

Re: Mega Man Mafia [Day 1]
'Scum traps' is a bit strong. 'Discussion flowing' is more accurate. I'd also prefer posts and reads, but this was during a Day 0 when, as far as we know, very few alignments had even been set. That's pretty relevant when talking about the content of my posts during that time.Lunalee wrote: ↑Sat Sep 22, 2018 2:05 pmSo you claim you were attempting to set scum traps with your questions? Or just get discussion flowing? If the latter, I would rather have discussions about players and their posts and reads, than game mechanics.

Re: Mega Man Mafia [Day 1]
I didn't read Sloonei's Elohnalysis yet; didn't want to be influenced.
Couple of rapid-fire reads at the top, and Civ reads at that. Not my favourite look, it's just about the easiest thing for a baddie to do. Some fluff commentary.
Overall mildly suspicious of Elohcin.
I don't get the reference about the 'work' but I think she must have meant 'word', and I still don't know what it is. I don't see this as alignment-indicative.
Pretty bland stuff. A baddie would like the new Jay because the new Jay is laid-back and the old Jay is super-interrogative? I don't know the likelihood of Eloh knowing her alignment at this time anyway, but I guess going forward I'll assume the baddies know they're baddies.
Okay, already this is pretty far from "I like the new Jay". Now it's "I am accusatorily critical of the new Jay". Does Eloh always post early and often? I don't recall. I thought that she usually didn't get to into a game until a few days had passed, at least. These two things are what stand out to me, and neither makes me feel more Civ about Eloh.Elohcin wrote: ↑Sat Sep 22, 2018 3:23 pmSo in other words, "y'all get started and get the dirty work done and I will come back in here before the vote and make my assessment on which bandwagon I should jump on." Sounds bad to me. My first accusation is on YOU. Not only just this post. But, this post was given at12:54am. You then go on posting frequently until 3:08am. That is over 2 hours. And you have no time to ask questions, make comments, hurl accusations? There was no opportunity for that? Then you must have slept or something because you came back in the early pm posting exactly 9 hours later. At 1:48pm you talk about what you will do once you feel like actually playing the game. Again, you post frequently for 1 hour (1:48pm-2:42pm) not really saying anything.

@Jack - I always post early on and often. I just don't often say much game related crap because I am too busy trying to keep up with the reading in the little bit of time I have to devote to mafia.

Valid contradiction callout, I don't recall the answer, but I imagine Sloonei has already touched on it.Elohcin wrote: ↑Sat Sep 22, 2018 4:17 pm Alongside my sus of Jay, I think Quin is civ, I think Mac is civ, I think Sloon could have slipped saying "If I'm Civ" but I see no other signs pointing to baddie, and I am neutral on nutella although she is being kind-of mean overall.
Quin, don't let anything make you guess your coolness.
Nutella, saying things like "naw bish" doesn't make you cool. :P
And what is this love relationship going on between Mac and Nut?
Sloon, I doubt anything happened to Jay on Day 0. I think he was telling the truth.

Sloonei, I am confused. Did Jack through out cum reads before or after alignments were given. I see a contradiction in your posts here.Sloonei wrote: ↑Sat Sep 22, 2018 2:58 amWe were well into Day 1 when he started throwing these posts around.

This gives me a townread on Jack.
Couple of rapid-fire reads at the top, and Civ reads at that. Not my favourite look, it's just about the easiest thing for a baddie to do. Some fluff commentary.
The last sentence is the most relevant to me. The statement of a Civilian, a Civ in the dark. Baddies may or may not have known, but Civs definitely didn't know. Can't tell if it's genuine or not, but I lean genuine.

Re: Mega Man Mafia [Day 1]
Thanks for repeating it again, Sloon. It's not that I don't read the posts, just I guess that it's a pretty uninteresting point when all is said and done. No contradiction.
Elohcin didn't read deeply enough to understand that. Is that an indicator of evil? She was looking for an accusation to use, rather than looking for full comprehension?

I don't object to LC progressing down his list of reads to arrive at me. His ambivalence towards the pre-existing votes on me doesn't need to be a concern, but I can pick out a little bit of unease there. There is a hint of concern for the optics of the vote, or at least putting his suspect in danger of being lynched. I understand as much as anyone the concern with not wanting to overwhelm the poll in one particular direction too early, but that little note of hesitation before parking his vote on his top suspect gives me cause to question his mindset.Long Con wrote: ↑Sat Sep 22, 2018 11:04 pm I suspect Speedchuck less after seeing the quote from Epi about Light and Wiley recruiting.

I doubt Sloonei will be lynched today. There's no way this stays as-is for the next 19 hours.
The second paragraph is the part that I recalled as a concern. "I doubt Sloonei will be lynched today." In my memory I conflated that as "I'd prefer not to be lynched today", which I'm not seeing as clearly anymore, though I can still detect a bit of that mindset. By downplaying the likelihood that I'm going to be lynched, he is in a sense nullifying this vote: I doubt Sloonei will be lynched today, therefore this vote doesn't matter. Combined with the step of hesitation before announcing the vote, I can read this whole thing, again, as scum carefully testing the scales to see if he can get it to tip one way, while also parking a safe vote on a player who's already widely-suspected.
This is all deep speculation and not a theory that I want to run with right now (look at me, carefully testing the scales), but when I look at LC's vote I have these lingering doubts and I figure I'm better off expressing them now, if for no other reason than to make my thoughts known. I still have him as a town read.

I'm in a similar boat. EOD was right around the time dinner was ready, and I didn't make it in time.

When I posted "two hours", I was seeing a strong surge to Eloh based on some recent things she had said (I think it was about comparing JJJ's previous game in a way that was seen as false)... and I thought at the time that I was seeing the end of Day 1 forming right there. It looked really bad for Eloh, then opinions drifted away, and ultimately back to her.

Re: Mega Man Mafia [Night 2]
Well, that's convenient. Who wants to go through all the trouble of voting?
If there's a vigilante type Civ role, then maybe we can have a faux-lynch where we discuss who is the best target?

Re: Mega Man Mafia [Day 1]
This post ignores any possible subtlety and other motivations for question-asking, and leaps straight to "false ignorance or genuine ignorance, either way I'll vote for him". The goal is more to create a weird, confusing target than anything else. Not a good look.Lunalee wrote: ↑Sat Sep 22, 2018 12:19 pm Long Con's posts strike me weird. He apparently didn't read the rules or his role pm, and instead askes all game-mechanic questions in thread. Concerning the mafia recruitment aspect, he asks: It's still up for grabs?
Then posts a bunch of questions on how to approach this game: What are we dealing with here? How do we even mafia in this game?
Then asks, "have recruitment decisions been made?"
But then suddenly understands everything well enough to place a vote on speedchuck based on his game mechanic questions.
I don't view Long Con as being an ignorant player, which is why all his questions confuse me. Is he bad and trying to look like an ignorant townie? Or is he really that bad at reading the rules? I would be okay with voting Long Con today.
Sloonei/Luna w/w just struck me here. Friendly non-distancing distancing.
Shallow inquisition and platitudes, still unimpressed.Lunalee wrote: ↑Sat Sep 22, 2018 2:05 pmSo you claim you were attempting to set scum traps with your questions? Or just get discussion flowing? If the latter, I would rather have discussions about players and their posts and reads, than game mechanics. Discussing mechanics is always a good distraction from the more important discussions at hand.Long Con wrote: ↑Sat Sep 22, 2018 1:55 pmThis is sketchy, and a stretch, on the reread. It's a sktretch.Spoiler: show
It's more wishy-washy and noncommittal than water. Are you trying to be Switzerland here? Are you trying to catch baddies or be Involved In A Discussion? You cast a vote, which I can only assume is supposed to look like pressure, and then you proceed to post with as little pressure as possible on me.
And, I just have to focus on this sexy piece of blather: "This does reflect a pattern in Long Con's posts where he starts off in apparent ignorance of the game mechanics and then works his way up." Disappointed us when it wasn't a revelation-filled-look-at-past-games kind of pattern, but just you saying you see some pattern in the four posts Luna quoted. I can look at the horse picture behind my monitors and see, in the horse group, black-black-white-black-black-black-white, and yeah that's a possible pattern, and no it doesn't mean anything. PLUS, now it's maybe-suspicious in your world to move from ignorance to understanding as time progresses? Or are you Billy Pilgrim, displaced in time and confused about how I could have understanding at one point in time, and also have ignorance at another? We live in a linear world, buddy. Also, I was never ignorant of the answers to my questions, just to reiterate.
Defending the Civ who is most under fire is a good look... to invent for yourself.
Low Player Salad, not the worst case of Salad I have seen, but excessive. Speedchuck was low/lazy?Lunalee wrote: ↑Tue Sep 25, 2018 10:55 amNice analysis Jack. I would bet there's at least one mafia among the low/lazy-posters. We should look into DFaraday, Dom, Dr. Wilgy, Alien, K-Ness, Kylemii, Marmot, Simon, Speedchuck, Soneji, and sprityo.
(ignoring White for now. they aren't even playing)
That is sort of a long list, but I think it's a good place to start. I'll add my own analyses later.
... Luna's last analysis post is good follow-up at least. Some suspicion, I'll follow that vote. [VOTE: Lunalee] aubergine

Additionally, there was the previous vote.
So... you mean we shouldn't listen to you?Needless to say, my intuition has always been bad, and I'm more of a late-game player anyway.

Re: Mega Man Mafia [Day 3]
He could say he tried to save a Civ. The gain being looking like someone who tried to save Mega Man. Also, defining what is "gained" is, to me, a red herring. Acting unsure is gain enough, to a baddie. This defense is terribly shoddy, and I agree with Kness that you are suspicious.Jackofhearts2005 wrote: ↑Wed Sep 26, 2018 11:13 am Also the Colin vote thing what?

Also, Mac said I was towncore.
Why would you have to say something when your actions say it just fine? Only a noob baddie needs to point out his attempts to look Civ.

Re: Mega Man Mafia [Day 3]
I looked at Alien's ISO, and it's almost totally a focus on Sloonei with some, to me, stretchy reasons. Once you get past the plentiful small talk. I didn't really get a town feel from Alien, but he hasn't posted since Sunday now, so who knows?

Hey, I have basically read up to this point, and I have to go back to work at a catering job until after the lynch so my vote now will be final. IT's currently 6-5 Spoons-Lunes.

Especially when you factor in his mistake of thinking Elohcin was the first night kill. It's just a slip I don't see a mafia member making in the game.
That's the post where I voted for Luna, pretty early in the day. You are just looking at my last comment before the vote.

Re: Mega Man Mafia [Day 4]
On one hand I'm like "What the hell, I get lumped with Kylemii and yet he's green while I'm some orange-brick??" then another part of me says "Wow, entitled much? You've been green on 99% of peoples' lists so far dude. F off." and then a tentacle demon who lives in my soul says "Let's form our own Indy team and decide on a personal Win Condition" but all in all, thanks for the suspicion, Quin. Really, I'd much rather have suspicion than all this agreement that I'm Civ. Come on people, it's Long Con, he loves to trick everyone all the time! I can't wait to see the look on your faces... I wish. I wish I could bottle and store this next time I'm bad.Quin wrote: ↑Fri Sep 28, 2018 8:57 pm Quin - Called Luna out before anyone else. Would most certainly have lead her wagon on Day 2 had he been able to post. He's actually really good at mafia, guys. Basically he is confirmed town now.
Dyslexicon - God damn bulldozed their way into the thread from the get go. Dizzy was obviously keeping up as a spectator and I don't get the impression that momentum was ruined by a scum role card which would effectively mean throwing their reads in the garbage.
Alien - Had a good conversation with him on Day 1 about Sloonei's ISO's which left me thinking he wasn't just forcing that opinion to stick. His activity has completely dropped since then. Typically scum struggle to integrate themselves at the start of a game, but I don't believe the opposite is true. I don't think his sudden absence is AI, especially since he hasn't really gained much attention.
sprityo - I've never seen sprityo tunnel this hard before. I also think it makes him town.
Kylemii - He's been vocal enough that I felt I should place him.
Sloonei - "this is just my opinion but i think the case against sloonei seems like it's made out of weird garbage???" - Kylemii, 2018. I think he's a potential Luna teammate though. He responded to my case on her with stuff about her defending him because of an emotional connection, but that doesn't explain the lie she told me (which I think he would have realised) as well as the fact that I've never seen a syndicate couple do so (well, except ikawolf). He also proposed a sprityo CFD yesterday, which isn't great. Putting him the slightest shade of green to deter people from lynching him based on yesterday because basically your case sucks and mine rules.
Dom - Pepper-posting Dom is not abnormal. But I also couldn't remember anything he's said without checking his ISO and none of it makes me feel strongly one way or another. Withholding judgment.
Marmot - He's here but... Nothing to say.
DFaraday - Nothing to say.
DrWilgy - Nothing to say.
Simon - Nothing to say.
Soneji - Nothing to say.
Long Con - see Kylemii.
Turnip Head - He kept suggesting a nova wagon yesterday but there's nothing to suggest he really meant it. He called nova and Luna w/w but thought it best to lynch nova first despite all the Luna traction. Meh.
Jack - Only real beef is the vote switch at EoD1 which he's explained well enough. I haven't completely dropped it but I don't think it's worth pressing either. He was cryptic about his reasons for town reading me though which is a treat
K-Ness - He's having trouble integrating himself. Not super unexpected coming from another site but it's now Day 4 and I have absolutely no idea what he's up to besides pointing out a few pings.
nova - Hated his Day 1 vote and have yet to see anything from him I like.
Bullzeye - Found something disingenuous about his push on Sloonei for his post about why Mac was killed. His argument was that mafia are NKing town leaders, when Sloonei himself is a town leader. Mac could very well have been killed with it's implications for Sloonei being a town birds one stone deal and Bullzeye may be ignoring this.
speedchuck - Here because of Luna interactions. Strongly think Luna was defending him on Day 1 without any substance. He's either a teammate or a poor victim of Luna buddying. I haven't seen his interactions with her yet though.
[mention]nutella[/mention] the site is down right now; sorry you couldn't use the puke Smiley. My host shut down, and I procrastinated past the deadline. Now I have to get a new host and get it back online.

Re: Mega Man Mafia [Day 1]
So, looking through sprityo's ISO, he's being ridiculously friendly, and really sticking to the schtick so far. I don't like it, it might be designed to disarm us and view him as a friend. Is that far-fetched?
Just, this whole post... what the hell even is it? Read it through, and decide how much says absolutely nothing. And, for a single paragraph, it really jumps around in context, despite the confusing "But it looks like your hard work has paid off, your persistence on the truth has prevailed!" Like, is this a joke that I just am not getting?sprityo wrote: ↑Sun Sep 23, 2018 2:56 pm Friend sloonei, I want to believe in you, but im also having a hard time understanding how you go from defending yourself, to ISO walls, to text walls defending yourself again. The ISOs just cluttered my head trying to read through and I didnt necessarily see any congruent pattern/reason to them. But it looks like your hard work has paid off, your persistence on the truth has prevailed! It would appear though that the three voting you havent returned/wont return. I should see why theyre voting you, although i remember you saying yourself "nutella has provided why shes voting me" or something close to that. People are also talking about Eloh being suspicious but i cant recall anything shes said to be present really! Can someone just point to me exactly the post where Eloh is looking bad?
