TheFloyd73's vote for BUGLABUSH stands out to me. Matt F brought up his vote here:

Anyone who votes for someone wth the excuse "he bad" is more than likely scum. Perhaps he's trying to (very vaguely) convince us that Zebra's scum.
At this stage, I'm not convinced that Zebra is on one specific side of the (civ-scum) spectrum (in other words, I'd call him neural). I'll need to re-read his posts.

Looks to me BUGLABUSH's post was a response to getting a vote from a2thezebra:

a2thezebra wrote:To BUGLABUSH it is.

BUGLABUSH wrote:I voted for a2thezebra because he bad

Floyd, i don't see how a no u-vote makes BUGLABUSH 'more than likely' bad. Could you elaborate on this? Looks like you two know each other irl so i'd understand a joke Day 1 vote, but given your response to Matt F, this doesn't appear to be that.

Luke11646 wrote:I'm voting for tranq because he hasn't made any comments and isn't doing anything.

Luke11646, on Day 1 you voted for me. Now, it's ok, everybody makes mistakes

But can you explain why you decided to vote for me over other players who hadn't posted yet?

Floyd, you were online this afternoon at 3:32, an hour after Tranq made this post and after I made mine. Can you explain why you did not address this issue? Your behavior regarding these questions makes me believe you are bad. This isn't your first game, you know better.
I was only able to get a quick glance at the thread, I didn't have time to make a post because I was going out somewhere.
How exactly can it be elaborated on? I do know BUGLABUSH in real life, but I'm still going to treat him (and the other people I know IRL) like any regular player.
My point is that a vague reason is always a suspicious reason.

Floyd, i went through your posts, looks like you started playing mafia roughly 1 month ago. What do you mean when you say "a vague reason is always a suspicious reason"? The always part. This doesn't seem like something a relatively new player would say.

I'm feeling ok with a vote on Floyd today.

I'm keeping one of my votes on TheFloyd73 for now. Floyd, who would you have voted for if you hadn't missed the Day 2 vote? What do you make of BUGLABUSH's and Luke11646's recent posts?

What do you make of literally anyone else in the game? You have 8 posts, and they're all about Floyd, Bugla, and Luke.

Lies. My first 4 posts are about rocks and lizards and falling asleep

As for my Group 1 vote, i like Golden's lie detector theory on nutella and TinyBubbles so that might be something worth looking into.

@ Golden: I'm looking into your TinyBubbles suspicion. Am i correct in understanding it boils down to the following?

- Her randomly mentioning Timmer on Day 1 (but not because of Timmer's death)
- Her answering the are-you-civ question with a statement that cannot be lie detected (but not because she didn't simply say she was civ)

Note in RM4 she didn't say she was civ either. She made a joke, but it was a joke that could've been lie detected:

This game:

TinyBubbles wrote:@turniphead am i bad? go by my track record!

vs
Quote from RM4:

TinyBubbles wrote:yes, i'm evil. badder than you could ever suspect! better lynch me now, doo eet.

I'm guessing only 1 player out of the 2 groups will get lynched, with the votes being added up if someone appears in both groups.

Speaking of which, double vote on TinyBubbles

Are the votes changeable?

Votes are changeable in the poll.

Thanks for confirming

Voting Floyd again for the time being. I didn't get around to looking at the nutella case the other day. The posts about juliets are also something i want to take a better look at.

Eh?

I could move my Floyd vote to Luke.

Not alot to go on, but here's what i get out of his posts. This is Luke's first game. He has asked 3 questions so far:

1.

Luke11646 wrote:Metalmarsh, why did you vote for epi

2.

Luke11646 wrote:
Sorsha wrote:I also had some questions for Luke that he didn't answer while he was here.

I'm going to put my vote on Luke for now.
What questions.

3.

Luke11646 wrote:
Typhoony wrote:I voted nutella and luke for now, in case I fall asleep.
Why me?

1. A quick question posted 3 minutes after HamburgerBoy asked Luke if he had any thoughts: http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 38#p191337
2. and 3. are the same. Both Sorsha and Typhoony had asked Luke questions which he seemed to have missed. This shows Luke isn't paying alot of attention and isn't reading every post.

When it's time to vote, Luke references other players' points which indicates he does read the thread, but he never questions the players he votes for:

Luke11646 wrote:I'm voting sig because bull and zebra have made some good points on him and he keeps putting the blame on other people, which looks suspicious.

Luke11646 wrote:I have to go and won't be back before the vote finishes so I'm going to vote for Nutella and Bugla

And he plays the "i'm new" card here:

Luke11646 wrote:I asked MM because I was curious why but then I got distracted with other things and forgot about it, I'm new and I don't have very much to contribute at the moment, sorry for not answering your questions sooner.

Changed my vote to Luke.

Typhoony wrote:
Typhoony wrote:Tranq do you have an opinion about nutella?
You've never commented on her and the only thing you said about her is that you didn't have time to look at her case.

Did you ever find the time?
Slight addition:
He also mentioned nutelLA here, saying that he liked Golden's theory on nutelLA and Bubbles re: the lie detector.

No. I didn't get around to going through juliets' posts either. I decided to go through Luke's posts instead, because there were way less of them

nub nutella

I'm keeping my vote where it is for now.

juliets wrote:I parked my vote on the host option because i do not have a decision made as to who I will vote for.

What happened to your sig suspicion?

And why is this in OT?

@ Bass: Even 10 lynches in a row are better than having only only lynch. The point being that we basically skipped a Night phase in which the mafia could've killed.

So does nutella's vote for Luke still count?

I kinda figured that I'm in the bottom half of posters, so it doesn't affect me with either result.
Ummmm....I'm confused. it actually has an impact on you. I don't get why you'd want to be on the poll with half of the players listed as opposed to with all of them listed.

You reply to this but not to DFaraday's 3 posts directly above mine in which he mentions you? You don't think the quote below is worth addressing?

DFaraday wrote:
Dom wrote:Dfaraday-- why Floyd?
I felt his RIP for Luke was a bit odd, and paired with his vote for Nutella when the votes were very close makes me think he could be Luke's teammate. Also, Tranq went after Floyd (including a post pointing out a comment of Floyd's which sounded coached) and was summarily NKed. It could be a setup, but I think it's more likely that he's part of Luke's team.

Why didn't you answer this when DFaraday brought it up? What about the other points mentioned in the quote?

TheFloyd73 wrote:No, I just have no clue what NK means.

NK is a symbol for the nanokelvin, an SI unit of temperature equal to 10−9 kelvins.

Why did you murder me?

Sorsha wrote:If I had two votes I'd go with Floyd. I trust that Tranq knows what he is talking about.

How about a triple lynch this time?

Voted Floyd, again. I think he's Luke's teammate, and i think he's the one that killed me. Also he still hasn't answered DFaraday's questions other than the "RIP Luke" part:

I'm a mate of Luke's IRL, what's wrong with paying respects?

I'm also quite happy with your vote

Winter. It's coming.

Voting Floyd again. Death to the Tranq-killers!

I've been Puppet Mastered earlier in the game. I think the kill would show up as having been targetted by Witherdeath.

A screenshot of the Day 6 lynch would be nice. The last couple of hours look like a huge mess

Golden wrote:@Tranq - you put quite a bit of thought into who killed you. Do you still think Floyd could be on that team after juliets flip? Do you think Typh could have been on that team? Do you think my theory about wilgy holds merit?

Also - I ask you all the questions about the team that killed you, but do you have any idea about who might be bad on the other team?

Yes. Unlikely. Unlikely. No.

Golden wrote:It feels like a new post-juliets dawn where new suspicions need to come forth.

I have two clear thoughts so far. The first is that I can see a scenario where Dr Wilgy is bad and on the Cabal and they set up his 'death' knowing the night wouldn't count for cred. My impression from TH, and it was backed up somewhat when I asked about it in the thread, is that this is exactly the kind of gambit Wilgy would enjoy. It seems up his alley.

The second is that I get the feeling that tranq may know more about his death than he can expressly say. I get the sense that he has been honest in his suspicions about who killed him. Tranq, you may have answered this already, but do you know why/how you came back to life? I don't think Tranq is on the circle of decay, and he was killed by the Cabal, so that would seem to clear him... unless the Cabal wasted a kill knowing he would rezz (for cred reasons). Which seems unlikely to me.

So, I might vote floyd to see if tranq is right.

I'm going to listen to what people have to say about others too.

Golden, your DrWilgy suspicion assumes the Cabal is responsible for the restarted Night. Why assume this? Isn't it more likely a non-Cabal restarted the Night?

I voted Floyd this morning. Again. Looking back, i've suspected him since Day 2

A combination of his thread behaviour (rather than summing them up, it might be faster to simply go through my posts, im feeling lazy) and map related reasons (one other player should get what i mean) is why i think he specifically killed me.

What are your thoughts on Timmer right now?

Sorsha wrote:Why are people voting and not giving reasons

I just looked over bass's posts and not liking them. When it was Juliets vs Canuck he decided to vote for Canuck then the next two lynches when Juliets was a candidate he was a no show. He's showed up to vote in the night polls but not the lynch polls plus he's been posting elsewhere on the forums during all of this.

I had originally planned on voting Floyd today but his posts from last night have me doubting his baddie-ness. Tranq- how sure are you about Floyd? Do you think you could be mistaken?

Unlikely.

Bass doesn't have alot of stuff to go on. Only 1 mention of Luke here:

Bass_the_Clever wrote:Is Luke getting votes because he hasn't been posting?

And there was that time where he made odd statements about the double lynch option earlier in the game:

Bass_the_Clever wrote:I think the 2 lynches is an amazing tool for the civs to use the only problem I'm having is it's still early in the game and we could loss two civs. We have to also think about the mafia knows what is going to happen with the vote tonight before they kill so they could use the kill to throw more chaos into this up coming Lynch. That's why at this point it makes more sense to use non changeable votes.

Bass_the_Clever wrote:
Tranq wrote:@ Bass: Even 10 lynches in a row are better than having only only lynch. The point being that we basically skipped a Night phase in which the mafia could've killed.
I never thought about it like that.

All of which basically boils down to the following smiley:

Ah. I forgot about the part where he asked to be NKd

Hmm.

Feral Pixie.

Sorsha wrote:Yay! Great result! Looking forward to Tranq having to put a little more work into the game now too

Uh.

S~V~S wrote:I want to reread Typhoony today. His behavior was very unexpected to me; even if he had not been killed by Witherdeath, I didn't think he was Juliets teammate; I have never ever seen Typh defend a teammate; I think I am more interested in what he did not comment about than what he did during the whole Juliets thing. I also need to reread Timmer & the whole "confession" thing.

Typhoony pretty heavily defended a baddie teammate aapje in rabbit's Sword of Truth game. Ofcourse the case on aapje was absolute bullshit, involving fake infoclaims etc, but yeah. I don't think he was a member of the Cabal. Actually, going through his posts based on the assumption he was Circle of Decay might be a good starting point to lynching one of them.

S~V~S wrote:If I recall correctly. he had already been recruited by me when aapje got dumped on. Typh was a civvie at that point, and oddly I was helping him work hard to save aapje since his death would make the other bad group too powerful. So let's split this on 50/50 nub Tranq

I don't recall the exact timing of his baddie-to-civvie recruitment but the point was Typhoony has atleast once heavily defended a (former)baddie teammate before

That game still gives me headaches from time to time...

fingersplints wrote:Lorab - I agree it's good to be wary when dealing with tricky hosts, but I truly believe in this case the feral pixie is good. Nothing I can see from role descriptions or any messages has made me feel otherwise. I also agree with you about the Wilgy situation. It's always good to consider kills and teams, but I always think it's safer to vote who you are most confident about regardless. I've seen too many games where an obvious baddie gets away because we kept putting off lynching them until too late.

A quick search shows you have only mentioned Wilgy once before here:

fingersplints wrote:Dr wilgy had two votes (one of which - golden - talked of voting me) so self preservation again makes sense. Why shouldn't I vote to save myself Dom?

What are your thoughts on Wilgy? Do you suspect him?

Quick thoughts while going through Typhoony's posts based on the assumption he was Circle of Decay:

Voted Buglabush (Draconus) Day 1. Given the closeness of that lynch, i don't think Typhoony and Draconus are teammates.

Turnip Head made a case on Typhoony and they went back and forth here:
http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 34#p195834
http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 39#p195839
http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 10#p196010

I don't think Typhoony and Turnip Head are teammates.

His thoughts on Timmer:

Typhoony wrote:I don't think Golden's case against Timmer is strong. So Timmer was in the vicinity of two kills. Ok.

I don't really like Timmer's responses, especially when it comes to the item thingy, because he himself very much implies he had something to do with it. But that seems to be pertaining the Epi kill, which seems to have happened toDay, not last Night. It's not enough to make me vote for him.

I have no read on this.

Night 5 he argued quite a bit with HB. I don't think Typhoony and HamburgerBoy are teammates.

I'm not sure how much this helped. This is an assumption, he could've very well been civ or indy
