Re: Biblical Mafia [CHAPTER VIII]

I was starting to have a change of heart regarding Balaam, and then I remembered this little excerpt while I was at the store earlier.
Balaam wrote:You seem to think that I'm the anti-Uzziah. He admitted to being bad while I am acting all super-civ. Is that what you're basically saying?
Balaam, are you familiar with the concept of a Freudian Slip?

The problem here being that you couldve just said that you "are super-civ" or are "being super-civ", yet you chose to state that you were ACTING super civ. Implication meaning that you are putting on a show, or trying to appear as something other than what you are.

I'm gonna double down here, and I'm not going to wait till the end of the phase to do it. I am voting Balaam today.

Re: Biblical Mafia [CHAPTER VIII]

Balaam wrote:
1) Funny you mention mislynches coming from nowhere, because you started the train on Samson Day 1 with your vote. You dovetailed Paul's suspicion of him for voting so soon with your own reason. You said he was avoiding a question and the apparent active ignoring of a question pinged you. Thus, you added a second reason to suspect him. Then Jacob latched onto your reasoning a few posts later and he ended up voting for Samson later in the day. Worth noting that Jonathan also voted after the Cain Train started, giving the appearance of a save on Cain.

2) As I said before, I normally keep my vote until close to the end. I hate being wrong but I also hate being dead, so if it looks like I'm at risk of being railroaded, I'll vote to save my ass. He's worth saving because he can talk, you know.

3) As I said, I spent much of Day 5 and even a lot of Day 6 re-reading the thread. I really shouldn't have slacked off so much but other picked up the slack by going after Uzziah. I still maintain that I would have been the #1 suspect Day 5 had I been on the poll. Thank the Lord I was not on that poll, right? We needed a miracle to get back into the game and the Lord provided by keeping me off the poll. That allowed you guys to go in another direction- aka Uzziah.

4) As I mentioned earlier in the game, I voted Cain Day 1 because I wanted to give people the appearance of a choice. I didn't want Samson to get too much of a lead because we've seen some late voters just glom onto whatever they read in the last 10 posts or so before they vote. Unfortunately, I added to a vote tally that made Cain an easy leftovers vote the next day. Remember that he did not help his cause by being so defensive and dismissive. I wasn't 100% on Cain because I suck at reading people but he wasn't playing ball and we need players who are willing to conform at least somewhat.

5) I see what you're trying to do here but it's a stretch when you consider other aspects of my game. If people go back and look at your vote history, it's not exactly roses either.

Total wifom statement: If I were a baddie, why would I post all those lists, player recaps, and technicolor vote breakdowns that seem to piss a few people off? I see your point on my vote record, but do you also feel that I am acting so super-civ as a front? Have any baddies ever gone quite as far as I have in info dumping? You seem to think that I'm the anti-Uzziah. He admitted to being bad while I am acing all super-civ. Is that what you're basically saying?
1. So because I thought Samson was bad, I am responsible for the thoughts and decision of others? Interesting, and faulty.
2. I dont even think this is a reply to my second point? I am genuinely confused. Im talking about how you always are one of the last to vote, and you're talking about how someone is worth saving because they can talk. Please reiterate.
3. Im guessing you dont see the really weird connection between these 3 descriptors of you on Day 5. (Didnt vote) (Wasnt on the poll) (Same day a heathen was lynched). It's almost like you didnt need to vote because you couldnt die that day anyway. You say you were busy re-reading the thread, but then say you shouldnt have slacked off. Which is it? Additionally every time you click over to another page, that deadline on the poll is right there in your face. I think you chose not to vote on day 5. Unless you were painfully oblivious to the first thing you see on every page, which I doubt.
4. The appearance of a choice? Why are you concerned with that? I didnt know I was playing Bioshock. Would you kindly vote for who you think is a baddie instead of trying to make some kind of statement?
5. If you are going to draw attention to my vote history and throw my own strategy back at me, at least put forward the same amount of effort, and show me what is wrong with my vote history. I've been voting for people that I am looking at and suspect.

Do I feel like you're acting civ as a front? Maybe. If your defense is "A baddie wouldnt act as civ as me", then newsflash: Yes they would. The entire objective of a mafia is to blend in with the civs. To look like a civ themself so they arent killed and can win the game. And yes, I have seen baddies do the same level of info dumping.

Slightly off-topic, I do have issues with paranoia. I am never ok with calling somebody a civ until they are killed as one, or if they roleclaim, or are otherwise lock cleared due to game mechanics. The people that others think are civ, are the ones I suspect the most. All it takes is a thousand lies and a good disguise. It's nothing personal against you, it's just how I tick.

Answer me this question before I get ahead of myself here.

Were you silenced on night 4?

Additionally, I did kinda rush that vote. Like I said I almost slept through that shit. I try to wait till later in the phase to make a vote because I know I cant change it once I do. Unfortunately that doesnt always work well, seeing as how the phases were ending around 11PM in my time zone, and I have to get up for work at 5.
Hey there. No, I was not silenced Night 4. Why do you ask?
The thing that I noticed is that after day 1, you have been on every single mislynch. Then day 5 comes around, the day that we lynch a heathen for the first time, and you dont vote that day. Day 6 you voted Ruth. Day 7 you helped lynch Jeph.

Reasons I dont like that
-IIRC, most of those mislynches were a situation where the bandwagon on the lynched player formed seemingly out of nowhere and completely overtook the then current majority vote on another player
-You were always one of the last 5 or so to place a vote on the mislynches, outside of day 4 and 7. Day 7 you barely miss that criteria. Like you're trying to play it safe. I know that I wait a while to vote and I dont have much movement to criticize you for this, but it seems like you wait and then pile on to the popular vote after everybody else has done it.
-Your missed vote on Day 5 wasnt due to a silence on night 4. I asked you that because there was a chance that MAYBE it was a coincidence and you possibly just werent able to vote. Herod was still alive at that point after all. But now that you yourself have said that you werent silenced, it looks worse.
-Not being on a mislynch on day 1 doesnt really give a good lock either, as you were the last to have placed a vote on Cain that day who was then subsequently lynched.
-Day 1 you voted for Cain, after Ruth did. Day 3 you voted for Mary Magdalene, after Ruth did. Day 4 you voted for Job, along with Uzziah. Day 5 you missed Uzziahs lynch entirely, so you probably had to vote for Ruth to cover your ass.

I know im probably reaching a bit here, but that whole thing makes me raise an eyebrow. "Why would I help push every mislynch as a heathen? That's too obvious.". Yes it is, but then again Uzziah was practically begging us to lynch him and he was a heathen, who's vote you so happened to miss.

Mordecai wrote:Going over my notes, I noticed that when Ruth voted for Absalom, if she had voted for Rachel instead it would have tied the vote. In a situation where a heathen is facing a lynch, why would they not try to tie the vote so they dont die? Because of the gamble that Absalom may have received a quintuple vote from Lazarus, thus standing on the lynch chopping table at that point. Ruth clearly stated this is how she saw her way out of the lynch.

I'm wondering if by voting for Absalom, Ruth was actually trying to make Absalom look more civ. In the same way that a baddie's suspect reads become mostly void, Ruth's vote could be read like that as a baddie normally doesnt vote for another baddie unless the lynch is basically guaranteed. Could be, but this is honestly the most "reverse psychology" theory I've read so far on the votes. Further emphasized by that with Ruth's death, we skip another night phase. [color=#BF40B]And?[/color] It could have been a desperation attempt to break the cycle. Well, yeah, that's the point of her trying to get herself out of the lynch, isn't it? But that would paint Absalom bad...?

Nothing very interesting from her vote pattern either. She voted alongside Deborah and Belaam Days one and 3, after not voting day 2. Voted Uzziah day 4 because she had previously called out that vote. Essentially had no choice but to double down on Uzziah day 5.
So her confirmed blatant save for Uzziah day 3 was "nothing very interesting"?

What's the point of this post being almost entirely an analysis of Ruth, anyway? We have to analyse confirmed baddies in order to come up with other possible baddies and you've thrown in only Absalom, in a rather twisty logic and nothing besides that.
I see that sharing your thoughts, regardless of context, is frowned upon in these parts. I guess I'll stop doing that and keep it to myself again since clearly nobody gives a shit about my opinion. :disappoint:

"It's confusing so it's worthless why did you even bother?" Whatever dude.

The day 3 Uzziah save was pretty easy to see. As you have stated by referring to it as "confirmed blatant" save, I dont see why you take issue with me not rehashing something most people should have noticed already.

Employing that tactic has favored me as of late, but unfortunately it isn't trul worth anything until a baddie is killed. Otherwise it's just wild speculation.

Re: Biblical Mafia [CHAPTER VI]

Going over the votes, 3 things caught my eye. When I do these vote analysis('s)(ses)(?) I look for people who consistently vote together, odd drop offs in votes after a lynch, and after somebody comes up mafia, players who voted with said baddie throughout the game numerous times.

Deborah and Balaam voted together until day 4, where Deborah submitted a vote for herself. Voted Cain day 1 and 2. Mary Magdalene on day 3.

Malchus voted with Cain for Absalom Day 1. Malchus then voted Cain day 2. Disappeared from votes entirely after Cain was lynched as a civ.

Uzziah and Rachel voted for Job Day 2. Voted together on Job day 3 again. First two votes on Day 4 for Job subsequently. Rachel flips on Uzziah Day 5.

The people I am going to dig into following this post, are Malchus, Rachel, and Deborah. Another thing that has been bothering me this whole game though that I've been keeping my mouth shut about, are all these people that come in here every single day phase with the same opener of "Sorry I've been gone! Catching up now!". One time is fine whatever. But doing it basically every day? I dont like it. I find it telling of paranoia, that people find it necessary to constantly explain away their absence even when not asked. Like they're afraid of always being watched. Unless you're a millionaire that sits at home all day, or unemployed, nobody can be here 24/7. Everybody has lives. I work 8-12 hour days 5-6 days a week. I post when I can. I dont feel like I owe anybody an explanation though, aside from when I justify my short posts because my phone is a piece of shit.

How is that true when he wasn't lynched any day before? Sure lynch means actually lynched.

linki: great. Can you give us your bottom line?
I can't post with your tons of posts
Replying to the bottom portion. Cutting out the rest would be a hassle on my phone.

IIRC Uzziah was was almost lynched 3 straight days and narrowly avoided it. I can't remember how close the polls were off the top of my head, but I don't think there was that big of a gap between the people that got lynched and Uzziah.

I interpreted "sure Lynch" as "highly likely to be lynched". Apologies for that miscommunication.

I could've sworn I remembered Samson talking a bit. Mary Magdeline I'm pretty sure was an orchestrated ruse by the heathens. Like I said that wagon went from 0-60 in no time at all. I refuse to believe there were any less than 2 baddies on that vote.

Re: Biblical Mafia [CHAPTER IV]

I just spent the better part of an hour tearing apart the voting results, and I have no noteworthy patterns to use in determining who could be a heathen. Normally there is something noticeable, like 2 or more people ALWAYS voting together, but I have nothing. The only things that stand out are players making consecutive votes on the same player day after day such as Lazarus voting for Absalom 3 straight days, the results of Job vs Uzziah voting for one another without fail, and that Belshazzar still hasnt broken the trend I initially thought of him being on the popular vote choice every single poll since preface.

I'm going to really start digging into the people who havent been posting practically at all. Especially if today's lynch turns up a civ. We've been looking at the people who are talking, and 3 days of that has gotten us nothing but mislynches.

For now though, due to lack of a better alternative, I am going to stick with my opinion from yesterday and vote for Lazarus once more. He still seems bad to me, though I find myself second guessing that decision somewhat.

Work schedule is still kinda nuts. Havent been able to monitor the game 24/7 like I usually try to :(

Either you forgot to blue your text, or you forgot to sign in to your sock account, either way "Certain comebody" you fucked up.

By the way, Gideon? Why? Also RIP

Re: Biblical Mafia [CHAPTER III]

Fucking damnit. RIP Mary, even though you were barely here.

Now all we can do is wait for Epi to smite one of us. There is definitely something up with these lynch votes. That Mary wagon went from 0 to 60 in the blink of an eye. All we need to do is hit one heathen and this game is gonna take a turn for the better just on these poll results alone.

Re: Biblical Mafia [CHAPTER III]

Did Lot explain his vote or did I miss it? I was wondering about it yesterday but I didn't see the explanation, unless he voted out of nowhere.

Re: Biblical Mafia [CHAPTER III]

I need to start sticking to my own opinions. If he doesnt show up today, I may vote Lazarus. Absent for two days, calls out specifically 1 of 7 Cain voters with very little reasoning, then asks me my opinion and never comes back again. That and knowing who he is, he is probably blowing off this game for a different one if the other game threads are any indication. He's been here, but he hasnt been here

If that's the case, why are you wasting time talking about him? I thought the game was about finding baddies.
I was asked what I thought of him. That was my answer. Had I not been asked about Absalom I probably wouldnt even be talking about him.
The kills do feel more like a potential frame, but why would the heathens try to frame him specifically? If they wanted him dead why wouldnt they just kill him?

This game isn't making any sense.

Also why did Lazarus lock onto Absalom because of the Cain lynch? 7 other people voted for him, yet you pop up after 2 days and call him out specifically? Why just him? I feel like you asked me my opinion just to see if I would help you build your case.

I barely remember making that post, but they say a drunk man's words are a sober man's thoughts so I'll stick by it.

Basically the condensed version is that I feel like him making that post was unnecessary fluff. If you're a civ, you shouldnt like a night kill period, no matter who dies. Saying "RIP" and what not is one thing, but specifically stating to the thread that you didnt like the nightkill and that you disagree with it seems weird to me. I'm unsure on whether or not that makes him bad, but I don't like it. It seems like over compensation. Like in a movie where somebody kills another character and they really oversell their reaction to the cops. It just seems off.
There's no one in the game you would mourn more than anyone else? Bah, I don't have time for this. My feet hurt, and the beer is getting warm.
Quoting this from you previous post for context on the matter
Yeah, a Horseman would have been nice. Or maybe someone who is not contributing. It's disingenuous to pretend that all living players are equally valuable. Paul was contributing. Others aren't, so yeah, I would have preferred a different kill. Bah.
Well I mean somewhat. It sucks that he's dead because he was at least making conversation for when he was able to talk, and the thread is less active without him. But surely you see why I think it's wrong that you would go "I would have much preferred that you guys kill Player A instead"? We don't want town deaths because it hurts our numbers, no matter who it is that died. Anybody can become valuable at any point in time. Just because they arent doing it now, doesnt mean they wont later.

Secondly I have great disdain for the fact that you are placing some kind of "value" rating on players. Get off your high horse. It makes it seem like you think some people are expendable and I do not agree with that in the slightest.

Gonna keep this short. I can barely feel my fingers. Try not to throw up om keuboard. I'll actually look intp him morning.
Absalom wrote:Why would someone kill Paul? That's lame. I disapprove of that decision and I hate it. Bah.
This seems like ober compensation to me. A player who is a civ should never APPROVE of a night kill in he first place. I really dont like that he came in here just to state that he didnt like the night kill. The only time someone disapproves of a night kill is when they are with the baddies and their team made a decision they didnt like. Otherwise you never want anybody to die at all because it lessens your chances of winning Perhaps Absalom would have preferred the death of someone else instead?

Nobody likes it when a high poster dies, but it feels like he made that post from a different point of view know what i mean? Almost like he is actively trying to put distance between himself and those who killed Payl. Novody does that as civ. They do it with guilt conscius
Akso every post he's made in Chapter 3 has ended with something along the lines of "I hate this/that, bah.". Why> im leaning heathen on him right now for tha one weird post

goodnight everybody, :beer:

didn't the write up imply Paul was Solomon? Unless I read it wrong. I'll go read it again.
"They answered, “Paul is addressing the crowd gathered in the marketplace. He is always addressing the crowd. His words are like blades of grass in a field. Number them if you can.” 11 The emissary from Egypt found Paul preaching, even as darkness had spread upon the land. 12 “Hear O children of Sin-d’kaht, the wisdom of Solomon: 13"

The way I read this made me think that Paul was preaching as Solomon. Was he just preaching Solomon's message, and not as Solomon?

The only thing that concerns me is his extreme tunneling on Uzziah. He seems to not care about anything at else.

Sifting through the posts of Batsheba(I can never remember how to spell this) yielded no fruit. I'm not quite sure what Paul saw there.
