I considered killing speedchuck, but I was afraid that he couldn't be killed. I also wondered if Giles had to be dead for Buffy to die (I was happy when the mafia killed you to get rid of that possibility). Ultimately, I decided to kill Mac because he was either bad/indy and I was hoping that there could be 1 mafia left (and secretly hoping I might get to kill every night if they were eliminated)--or he was civ and would start going after me soon because he always goes after me--actually, that he didn't go after me (or even mention me) was why I initially figured him for bad.

Night 1, by the way, I initially was going to kill jackofhearts, because he hadn't posted--but then he came into the game, so I changed to Wilgy, because he seemed like a random choice. Glad I changed because Mafia was killing jack anyway. :)

Kylemii wrote: Tue Feb 13, 2018 1:38 am what was nutella's role hint? I never saw.

I wished on night 1 to have btsc with Anya. Speedchuck wished for Anya to get btsc with Nutella. We we're gonna keep it going with each new added member getting making a wish with a different civ, until we had a decent network

Juliets and my dying at the same time ruined that plan.
Her initial hint was questioning me for googling something. Willow Rosenberg coined "google" as a verb--first recorded use of the term.

She later confirmed it with comments about other comments on potential willow claims.

Re: Buffy the Vampire Slayer: At the Hellmouth (Day 5)

Fine. I'll play that way.

I'm not Angelus. I'm not a Vampire.

I am fairly certain who Angelus is. I know that because I know who I tried to kill when Juliets died.

But I'm willing to make a deal with either side. Angelus, reveal yourself or I will reveal you and I'll let you win against the civs--if you don't take the deal, you're surely dead tomorrow, if not before. If you reveal yourself, we can vote together against a civ, both kill tonight and I promise I'll let you win. Civs, move your votes off me and I'll partner with you and you'll either outnumber me or kill me.

I'm not sure of anything.

I headed into today with you and Mac as my top townreads. But I'm townreading everyone, and this game isn't just me. Every current townie in this game (that isn't you) thinks we should vote you. I have had cases presented to me that opened things up.

I've had a pretty shoddy track record this game. I'm not about to throw it to the wolves now.

Consolidation is super important against Angelus. I'm trusting my townmates. That's why I'm sorry.

My guess as to the living roles. I don't think this counts as outing anyone. I could totally be wrong about some of these.
According to information sent to me by Willow, Caleb has been dead since night 1.

As to giving any evience to back up that claim, the info sent is why I trusted her early, especially after she posted trust in me (confirming for me that it was her). And I didn't share this earlier because I didn't want to share the information unless it was necessary.
Willow could have sent you this info whether good or bad. I want to see this confirmation, personally, but I don't think it affects your alignment at all. Sorry. :shrug2: I had a townread on you for most of the game, but I have a townread on everyone playing. Except Mac. I've had an indy read on him for days.
Why would she tell me/confirm for me who she was in the thread, after messaging me, if she thought I was bad?

You are wrong about me.

And you are wrong about Mac. He is bad, not indy. He is lying to you and you are eating it up.

And if you thought he were Spike, and you're right about everyone else, then Spike was recruited, so he must be mafia. And/or you are wrong about someone else.

That's my meta. I never get suspected early in the game when I'm scum. Why? Because I know what I'm doing when scum. This is going to keep my meta rock solid, looks like.

SVS has left me no avenue for escape. There is probably scum on my train.

Good luck with the nightkills, because the only thing you're going to get with your lynches at this rate is shot in the foot, over and over again.


I leave with one concession, toward @nutella and @S~V~S. If you somehow back off and let me live this one night, I can townfirm myself to you without claiming.

To be honest I haven't really noticed that I'm in danger. I don't have a penalty vote so I saw that nova was ahead of me but now I do see that I suddenly have several votes.

Don't lynch me. Seriously. I could say the same thing speedchuck said but you probably wouldn't take that very well. But it's absolutely true for me. I've actually hinted at my role twice already. Also I think Lorab might have an idea of it.

Looking back, I don't think LoRab would have NKed Juliets. So imma waffle and move my vote to Lorab. One of them is bad, and one is the SK.
You're right that I wouldn't have killed JC. And I think Mac would and did. You're wrong about me being a vampire, but I don't know how to demonstrate that to you, but I ask you to put that suspicion aside. I think Glory is more dangerous, especially leading into a night where she kills. And I think Mac is Glory.

In looking back through his posts, he seems to have hinted at several different civ roles over the course of the game. Could be random things and not role hints, but a bit too much of a coincidence for there to be more than one instance of a line in a post being hinty. But it would make total sense for Glory to drop random hints in posts for multiple roles, with the false role check part of the role.

Yes, tin foil, I know. But I am believing more and more that Mac is Glory.

And I know that I'm civ.

linkitis: I don't think you made it up, nor did I say that. I think it was a wish a baddie would make, not a civ. And, in answer to your question, I hesitatingly am trusting SVS. Tranq I'm not reading as bad. Sig I'm not sure about--I have lingering thoughts of him being Spike.

Re: Buffy the Vampire Slayer: At the Hellmout (Day 3)

Voting Mac, although I could be convinced to change, as someone is clearly hiding in plain sight, and maybe someone else can find something.

But I feel pretty confident that Mac is bad--not sure if Vamp or Glory, but not good. His tone feels like he's trying to imitate his civ tone, but just doensn't exactly fit. It's just off.

Also, it still doesn't sit well that he used a wish to make Wilgy post videos in the thread. Adding spam to the thread distracts from conversation and isn't a civ action. And his explanation doesn't hold true:

I don't think I've either blended nor slid. As I posted in the sign up thread, it was a busy week last week and I was travelling for work chaperoning teens in dc this weekend, so I haven't posted much recently. I've been doing the best I can.

As I said, I gave thread reasons because I know they are appreciated, especially when others don't know a player. And the way I read gut and "meta" are directly connected to the way people post. Not every pattern would read bad for me with every player--what I pointed out are things that read baddie for me with Illy. And so I posted why I was suspicious. I posted about her as soon as I got on that day, having had the thought during the night before, and someone else had mentioned it before.
S~V~S wrote: Mon Feb 12, 2018 6:00 pm
It could also be read as distancing which got out of hand, since it is the only post of substance she made about Illy. It isn't a hard case. Next was "Vote Illy" and then analyzing other peoples illy votes. I would not put anything past LoRab (said with all love and respect for her and her game). Also Illy did not show up for a few days, it is possible she knew this in advance and her team did as well.

I trust you, sig and Tranq. I know who I am :grin: that leaves Mac and LoRab, and I think he is more likely as the SK. But either way,they are the baddies we seek.
Yes, I didn't make another post about Illy--I was unable to get back to the computer to post any more and I didn't have anything to add about Illy that I hadn't already said or someone else had said--I didn't see a point in repeating myself. And you're right--it isn't a hard case, it was an explanation of why I was pretty sure Illy was bad--and I was right. A gut read is rarely "hard" and I've often been able to gut read Illy--my only hesitation was that I was out of practice.

And that I'd take advantage of a teammate not being there doesn't make sense to me (perhaps you can elaborate)--I generally hate lynching people who aren't there to defend--it's easy to find that about me and several players in the game (like you) know that about me. I voted in this case and didn't change because I was confident--and had no reason to think Illy was unable to come back to defend, just that she wasn't coming back.

amused to be sitting in the Hart Senate building as we play a Buffy game. I know wolfram and Hart is technically angel, but still. I’m easily amused.

Re: Buffy the Vampire Slayer: At the Hellmouth (Day 5)

Similarly not sure how to feel about the night post. I can see where there could be a hint that novas was possibly good, although I didn't initially read it that way. At any rate, we know he wasn't the last vampire (because we weren't told the vamps are eliminated) and we know he wasn't Glory (killed by Oz and not just Buffy). So, we're still in the same situation.

I'm up way too late and my brain is fried, so not sure about my thoughts. I have a few inklings of ideas I want to look back on (whatever happened to the sig suspicion, why do I feel an ongoing vague ping from lapluie, am I overthinking what triggered Oz, did Illy find Spike, and what do I think about everyone else)...

I'm busy with teenagers for much of the day--should be home (and back to a normalish schedule) around dinner time. On intermitently until then.

OK, I find I was mixing up Dawn and the Mayor power wise, based on what Tranq posted, I did not realize a lynch pardon role had to vote for the person they pardoned?

I looked it up, and this is the Mayors role:
Mayor Richard Wilkins III - The Mayor of Sunnydale, he has the ability to pardon one lynching. *secrets*
What do you mean, that role can recruit a civ? Am I missing something?
Read faith’s Role.

In regards to Nova - half of my suspicion was about him sounding scripted and considering Illy wasn't around yesterday it kind've puts him in the clear in terms of receiving coaching - if we are to assume there is only 1 mafia left.
However, his vote on Illy before switching it still super strange and what makes me doubt my doubt. Though they addressed this, I would like to hear one more time from them their point of view about what happened.
Although, rereading the day's posts, this part of this post pings me. First of all, we know that Illy didn't post during the last lynch--not that she wasn't around at all. Baddies have been known to not post in order to avoid sounding worse or hoping that someone won't vote for someone around. Also, I don't thnk we can assume only 1 mafia, especially not knowing if Spike was recruited or not. Also, BTSC usually continues after the grave--I know that was true in the last game here and LC and I were on the same team--and I know that LC has had that before. So, entirely possible that someone was still in BTSC. You seem to be negating your previous suspicion, which seriously raises my eyebrow.

Oy. Been without wifi more of the day than I've been with wifi and been swamped with teenagers. Haven't had time to read back on people or consider Ambray or anything new. Voting novas because I still suspect him and because I don't want to miss the vote--or make a vote this isn't fully informed.

I get that people are wary of me. I’m wary of a bunch of folks too. If you have anything specific I can clarify, let me know. :LoRab: (sorry rabbit, I guess I still twirl sometimes)

I will likely vote novas. I don’t feel good about him after the last lunch and I don’t like how he is doing exactly to tranq what he is suspecting tranq for. There are a couple of people I want to go back and read through. Will do later when on computer not phone.

Why are you and Nova so vague? She asked how long he's playing, and he's like, "quite some time", and then this bit of an over reaction.

I don't love lynching people who are not here, I hope Illy shows up.
I hope so, too. I also don't really like lynching people in absentia. It's so hard with 24 hour days, though!

I have. He has mostly been talking about the mechanics (abilities and night polls), a dead player potentially being bad and tunneling against me.

He wanted to vote D1 against people who didn't vote during the night poll, and then ended up voting Rabbit. He said he was confident with his vote but he didn't give any reason for it.
Much of what you say here simply isn't accurate. Other things don't seem suspicious to me at all. It really looks like you are purely switcherooing.

In a Rock Con game, if we dno't discuss mechanics, then we are probably missing out on a lot. And mechanics are relevant. And, he's discussed players, as well. And what is wrong with speculating about dead players? In a one mafia game (especially with a lot of neutrals), it's important to figure out baddies.

He absolutely gave reasons for suspecting you--his vote post was not the first time he mentioned you. He talked about voting Rabbit in the same post he taked about voting a non-participator (which is fairly common practice), and did so, clearly to me at least, as a throw away vote. Just like you seem averse to voting if you're not pretty sure about your vote, in the mafia culture many of us are used to, throwing out a random vote (or a jokey vote), or voting for a non-participating person, is common. The idea of choosing not to vote is entirely strange to many of us and looks highly suspicious often.

Also, you really don't seem to be reading the thread. Which seems inherently bad to me (since baddies can skip really reading, and have teammates who update them about what's going on).

Re: Buffy the Vampire Slayer: At the Hellmout (Day 3)

The nova voting first for illy thing isn’t sitting right. Nor is his explanation. Anyone remember way back in the day in Simpson’s mafia where sparrow voted for the wrong person (himself maybe) and it became a thing and he was, indeed, bad? It’s possible the hosts, illy, and LA were the only ones around back then, and not sure they played. But it was something that came up as a pattern for a while (it happened in a game soon after that with the same result, don’t remember which). But this feels like that.

It’s against the odds that he (he?) would choose the player with several votes to check to see what the results are, when that player was not the top player nor the one listed for the person actually voted for. So......yeah. Keeping my vote where it is for now but not at all opposed to novas as a second option.

Also, novas, can you clarify why you suspected tranq before he moved his vote to you today?

You are probably wondering why the videos. Well I wished that Wilgy would get cursed to post animal rights propaganda videos and the wish granted instead made me post cute cat videos.
Why would you make a wish about a dead player spamming the thread with OT-ness? It would seem to me that such could only distract from conversation.

Re: Buffy the Vampire Slayer: At the Hellmout (Day 3)

Tranq: Nice analysis.

Also, the night 1 post reads like recruitment, since Spike is with Angelus. Could be story telling, yes, but also makes sense of the hosts vaguely letting us know what's happening.

"Oi!" cried Spike from the cave entrance. "Where's the blue-glowy-wall thing gone? I grabbed this bloke 'cause he received blood Buffy donated, and-"

"Too late, Spike!" taunted Angelus. "And it's a moot point anyway, since The Master is no longer taking house calls."

Spike looked down at a terrified Marmot. "Bloody hell. Don't need you any more then, do I?" And with that, he snapped Marmot's neck.

[/color][/b]
Of the interactions you name, I'm most concerned with Illy in general. My gut is reading her as bad. It's pure gut and meta, but she doesn't sound like civ illy. Especially the way she talks about the neutrals. It's almost like she is more suspicious of the than the Mafia--Glory as top concern makes sense, but the Mayor is her next top concern? Shouldn't the mafia be more concerning? (I could also see her as either the mayor or glory, for that matter, but I'm thinking vamp)

You both realize that a civ killed rabbit, right? These read more like responses to a baddie killing someone. Civies don't generally kill out of fear, or not liking substance.

Tranq wrote: Thu Feb 08, 2018 3:27 am nub rabbit. How do you make a sig=spike connection and then not get the recent rolehints? I think Buffy probably made the right choice here, i wouldn't be surprised if rabbit was bad.

I want to look at a couple of players today. Good to see novaselinenever started posting after receiving a vote. Hope to see more of that today. Also, Illyria and juliets. I feel like i have absolutely no read on these players. Does anyone have civ-vibes on them?
I have a civ vibe of JC. Illy, see above.

Quite the opposite, really. I don't think Kyle would break the rules, so I don't think he is role claiming. Also, I think he's mistaken about you, so there's that.
That isn't how claiming works. So yes, you are role fishing, and breaking the spirit of the rules worse than what you accuse kylemii of, as well as doing a scummish thing

I think we are using terms differently, and much of our disagreement here is semantic. I'm not accusing Kyle of anything, other than not being certain about you.
