you should absolutely do you and don't worry about anyone's expectations, sabie. i love reading your thoughts, and though it's only my second game with you, i feel like your sincerity is what gives you a special mafia flavor and i like to see what you contribute.

so do you mean to say that the thing about epi not posting as much as you're used to was just to fill up the post because you felt your playstyle was being attacked? or did you actually feel epignosis was posting less than usual?

Unless she plans to move votes. I'm not a fan of DDLs sort of snarky jab at how I post. Epi seems less talkative and involved than usual to me. Kinda leaning bad on DDL and Epi and they also voted together.

I hope this post is short enough for you

The highlighted bits are hard for me to buy.

hi [mention]sabie12[/mention]. if you have a moment, can you address the post here. i think it's important in preparation for tomorrow's lynch. why did you reach the conclusion me and ddl couldn't be teammates if one of us was voting for the other?

also, have you played other games with epi? jjj linked us to the socky game where i didn't see a much more "talkative" epi there. in fact, if anything, he's been more talkative here. can you tell us what you meant with that?

I honestly have a hard time getting as much from that post as you get from it.

colonialbob said something about dunya saying something about DDL saying something about sabie

Maaaaaan I don't know my brain hurts I didn't know there was a quiz on the first day. Wait it's the zero day...or is it zeroth day?

This is a mild ping but also might just be a result of her role-playing rather than her normal posting style. Usually I would expect a lot of waffly stuff (not in a bad way) but this is short and doesn't mention anything about any of those players.

I would encourage sabie12 to do a little more talking about specific people (while keeping up the good RP )

This was the only interactive thing to talk about regarding sabie, and my initial take was a slight positive. I can't do much with it though, because I don't struggle at all to view it from the other direction.

don't forget him praising my post, where i defended ddl for making the observation that sabie might be posting differently than usual.

what recent game have sabie and epi played together?

i can see sabie genuinely saying and believing the first part.

what is the most civ-like thing ddl has done?

do you have a preference from most likely to least likely in that pool of 4? i know there's each 22%, but if i was really pulling your hand for an answer.

[mention]JaggedJimmyJay[/mention], how confident are you it's sabie, percentage-wise and why? in little bullet points for me.

as of tonight, i feel best about lynching between ddl and nova tomorrow as best candidates for cbob's teammate. if i die tonight, please start there.

i'd also like to see more content from DF and reywas (i won't ask sabie for more content given her situation, but if she can...that's great). i still echo that DF seems very sincere and authentic, though stingy with his words and posts. and reywas' eod defence of macdougall was kind of a good look for him when he could have instead tipped the scales and saved cbob.

she was in character for all of day 0 and had personal problems after that which didn't allow her to contribute as we'd hoped. it's hard to judge her on her posts solely. but her reasoning that she's not good at day 1s and needs time to get into the flow of the game and make beefy reads like the rest of us is in tune with what she said in the first game i played with her (the one you hosted, i'm so bad at mafia game names...especially ones i don't win). at that time, everyone was calling her fake as well and didn't like her "YAY I'M TOWN I GOT A GOOD ROLE" post, if you recall.

i know you didn't like her post where she was pretending to meet ddl's quota of sentences, but i thought it was enough tongue in cheek / exasperation at that judgment that it felt authentic. it was a little sassy and something i would have done myself even.

i definitely don't like cbob's mentions of her, it was reaching. it was like "i want to pile onto the sabie looks suspicious for reasons reasons reasons, let's go fishing" and his reasoning seemed to have been fabricated in a way after i asked him about her specifically, similar to his justification of voting for me at the eod. it's a good look for her. i like her. i dunno. she seems completely authentic and real to me.

DDL, novaselinenever, DF or reywas

i don't think sabie is mafia.

dunya wrote: ↑Fri Mar 01, 2019 11:33 am i agree though, that post 1 hr from eod and reywas not voting anywhere is indeed pingy. but if he was cbob's teammate, he could have easily swung it in mac's direction instead of defending him, no?

on the other end of the spectrum, ddl's defence of macd kinda really looks like TMI.

Dragon D. Luffy wrote: ↑Tue Feb 26, 2019 11:07 amShe's completely different from what I'm used to, which has always been civ. So GTH she's bad.

But GTH sucks and fails to consider she is obviously roleplaying, so more like neutral from now.

What is completely different about her?

Normally I'm expecting a single, 8 line paragraph on how she is unsure about a bunch of different topics.

This is so specific that I struggle to believe it.

i can see why it feels fabricated, but is it an accurate representation of sabie outside roleplay? i checked the ongoing game and can see a lot of variety in her posts, more beefy content as the game progressed. we won't talk about that now since we don't know her alignment and the game is ongoing.

then i checked a world asunder and honestly, i did see more beefy content as a whole from her there. the observation isn't completely unwarranted for someone who's played with her in a few games recently. but it was day 0. she was role playing a character she loves in a show she expressed genuine excitement about even in the sign up thread. and she did have a funeral and personal reasons yesterday. the question is would she use roleplay to mask discomfort at being given a scum role or not?

as much as i'd like to give ddl shit for that, i don't think it was a bad observation. i just dislike how he made it, and tried to get it to stick, then pulled out of it.

Like this dunya content a lot.

this post specifically makes me feel worse about ddl. after calling him fake for quite a big portion of his initial posting history, he likes the content where i defend ddl without being prodded to like it. it just seems like such a weird post to like. and it makes me feel better about sabie when you couple it with his poking of her on a separate occasion.

i agree though, that post 1 hr from eod and reywas not voting anywhere is indeed pingy. but if he was cbob's teammate, he could have easily swung it in mac's direction instead of defending him, no?

I might vote for Bob for the sake of chaos.

What? I don't know what this means. Why would that be "chaos"? Anyway, rey didn't vote for bob or anyone else. I'm not a fan.

~~~

i remember that post. if he voted for bob then it would have tied mac and bob. i think a draw is "chaotic" to reywas.

JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Fri Mar 01, 2019 12:08 am Her perception of bob improved here; it is unclear why. Please talk about that, dunya.

he wasn't in the clear, but this post was more along the lines of what a cbob post feels like to me and him chipping in on epi made feel a little better and i wanted to see if that would continue and sway me the other way.

i didn't like his colin vote at all. i hated his vote on me even more, it was weak and prodded by you. his inital posts made it seem like he was satisfied with my explanations but after you kept asking him he suddenly decided he could make an issue out of it. but i had bigger fish to fry that eod; i was focused on a big bad australian.

i'm feeling equal measures of good on quin and colin's votes if we look at the big picture, although i remember feeling quin's rationale at the time of placing his vote was a little underwhelming.

reywas not placing a vote on anyone is pingy, would have to take a look at his cbob interaction or lack thereof.

nova is my biggest scumspect atm.

i see no motivation for a scum epi to have even placed a long vote on sabie when mac and even dunya were ripe for his picking, even DF to a lesser extent. nah. not buying it. he wasn't around for the last moments of eod, but he was online during the day and saw the thread progressing. he could have steered it in a safer direction. sabie was not a safe scum bet. i'm feeling assured he isn't cbob's teammate.

jay may have him in dark green, and while macdougall is no way bob's teammate, i haven't ruled him out from being s/a.

jay is my favorite mafia player.

Off to bed I go.

Also working under the assumption that nova/DF is the scum teammate. Gotta have been on that mac-wagon imo.

I should have been asleep 3 hours ago.

Yeah I'm working under the basis there's 1 s/a.

If mac is s/a we're fucked after that eod lol

nova and ddl are my top suspects too, followed by unknown territories of reywas then sabie.

i need sleep now. see ya tomorrow.

hey, i just made you smooth sailing green baby. without my push, you would still be posting trump gifs. you're welcomeeeee.

i still love epi from this lynch. he could have easily gone to mac to save cbob, and would have if he and bob were on the same team imo. same for quin.

good luck, civilians. i've had enough mafia for a week.

i'm gonna leave it on mac. not feeling the cbob lynch today. would rather lynch mac.

you have a soft spot for mac.

epi too, cos he's loud and noisy just like epi likes em.

i'm going with mac or nova today, i need to go to bed. tell me which one to go with before i go to sleep.

I appreciate that she’s been pressed for time, and there are no more legitimate reasons than a funeral.

We don’t have enough lynches in a 12-player game to give passes though, particularly if we only get two mislynches.

like i said, you do you. i just won't join ya'll there.

1 more hour till eod. i dunno if i can last. it's 2am lol.

linki: are you talking about sabie? tell me more about her. did you know she had a funeral 2 days ago and hasn't been active since?

to me that's scum-mac, and i am taken back to ass-class.
