The one who votes last dies.

Hmm

I suppose if someone dies because of that role, we could try to look at vote patterns and see if there was someone deliberately avoiding the last vote. Or someone who failed to vote despite being active...

From my limited experience, what passes for evidence this early on in Mafia games is often little more than a combination of bravado and overactive imagination. All I can see is some particularly harsh accusations being thrown around by some VERY enthusiastic players. I have been around long enough not to mistake aggressiveness in these games with Mafia guilt so a couple of feuding prominent players (at this stage of the game) doesn't convince me that one is necessarily Mafia. From what I've read, Golden seems to make a lot of sense to me...

Like I said, I'm having a lot of trouble trying to follow you guys...

The post about MM was made because someone said something about what is meta is or something like that. I said the stuff about MP because ita how I felt sorry it read "fake" to you.

Matt F wrote:I'm at the top of page 16 right now, catching up. Looks like I already have 5 votes. Swell.

MP - I think Dom is bad for throwing his vote on me the way he did without even conversing (at least Zebra and Golden have actually spoken with me), but right now I'm throwing a vote on Enrique to save myself. Please peeps, I implore you to vote Enrique with me because I am civvie and I don't even know wtf happened here today.

Sorry nothing personal but rl has its demands atm.

That's...convenient. And Dom's vote was lazy. If anything's going to persuade me to vote for someone besides Matt it's these strange Matt votes.

You don't even read the thread.

Dom, it seems to me you distrust bcornett. Why make this assertion?

Cool beans.

Agreed, but what's up with this Matt F stuff?

Whatever it was it was damn creepy.

My guess is it has something to do with the Imperial secret roles? IIRC Palpatine tempts Anakin with the ability to "cheat death" through the Dark Side of the Force, which fits right into Vader and Sidious' secret roles. Then there's the issue that they failed to kill tonight, maybe meaning they could only use one power or the other?

Speculation: The Empire can recruit deadies into their BTSC for... some purpose, but that would explain the "And you're going to help me!" in the post.

MovingPictures07 wrote:Hey, YOU, player reading and hardly posting.

Guess what?

You're a low poster. You hear me? You will be feeling the heat. You better participate soon. NOT posting is NOT a strategy to play the game, regardless of your alignment.

Also, this again.

Seriously, why are there players signing up for games and not posting, and why aren't we putting more heat on them?

I don't want to vote for Bass... when he talks about "when I flip civ" I believe he's being genuine. I'll still vote to save myself because I can only be certain of my role, but still, I'd much rather see Roxy get the noose today.

Though, bass is suspish to me too.

For what?
For thinking Enrique is bad for different reasons than A2z?

No bc bass is dead and reinforcing your vote reasoning at this point only serves to make you suspicious in my eyes.

sig wrote:He tied yesterdays lynch, this was only broken because MM voted like seconds before the deadline.
So Simon tied up the lynch almost stoping Brian from being lynched. If you also see the connections between Enrique and Brian, then factor in Simon saved Enrique from a tie earlier this game, he comes off as suspicious. I think this is a good reason to lynch someone, however I'd prefer to lynch Enrique over Simon today and then see how Enrique flips.

It's just so over-the-top! The whole "if that is the case, I'll have a very hard time being mafia on this site in the future, you know, like not right now because I am absolutely not mafia right now as you can see from the veerrrry casual way I used the future tense to discuss the possibility of me being mafia which indicates that clearly I am not currently mafia and my sensitivities are affronted that you would think so!" epilogue is a little of the gentleman doth protest too much, ya know?
It doesn't look like a glorfindel lynch is possible today, and that's cool because I'd rather get a hutt today anyway (and I don't think glorfindel is connected to bcornett, or he's a least less likely to be a hutt than Simon), but this post has really raised my proverbial eyebrow.

Why do you want to know?

Whether you received any kind of result from it as I did. I'm trying to ascertain whether I won the poll or whether there were levels of reward.

You are the one who has colour coded them. You must have feelings about them. How bout you share those feelings hmm?

I do have feelings about them, but many of the players I feel least confident about, as well as those I have the least substantive reads on, are in those groups.

I expressed feelings regarding these reads in previous posts and rainbow lists, particularly Night 3.

I don't have adequate time at the moment to hash over them (going to bed, in fact), but I'll gladly clarify as much as I can when I have more time.

What do you think, Mac?

You don't wanna know what I think.

Maybe, maybe not. Regardless, I do. After yesterday's slow crawl I want to see whatever controversial thoughts you have to offer.

I think MP and Golden are on the Empire team.

Golden wrote:Oh, well done Mac, trying to catch me in semantics! My favourite!

To me, a team consists of people who have btsc, or in odd cases (like Greedo) it can extend a little beyond. But people always like to try and use the word 'team' to trip people up. I'll add you to the list.

Then why bother adding the second part to your sentence? Dramatic effect?

I was assuming you think you see a connection between me and MP. I wanted to make it clear that not only are you wrong that I am empire, you are also wrong about any connection you see between me and MP. I have no knowledge of his affiliation, although I read him civ.

Actually I don't see any connection between you two in the thread. I think you are both suspicious independent of one another.

thellama73 wrote:Okay, I'm twenty pages in. Making good progress! Here are my suspicions thus far:

Golden: too laid back this game for me to feel like he's normal Golden.
Nijuukyugou: Admittedly, I usually suspect her. Just something about her style I guess. It seems too equivocating.
Zebra: His rainbow list pinged me, as it felt like an effort to get certain people off the hook by listing them as civ. I'm not sure why I didn't feel this way about other rainbow lists, but MP seems like normal, civ MP to me.

I do agree that Simon's initial eagerness to go after Fett was telling, but I'm not happy with the amount of people piling onto him today.

Dom, when you get the chance, let's talk suspects. I know we tend to have different viewpoints, so I want to see where we disagree and why. I feel you've been a bit tame in recent cycles (though we all have, I'm sure due to individual RL situations, and I know you work retail), so I want to hear more of your thoughts.

Work, School, plus I'm super invested in A World Reborn ATM.

But I'm not super suspicious of anyone rn. Maybe canuck. I also only meant that of the two of you-- Golden and yourself-- I would be more surprised to find out Golden is bad than you.

RIP Simon. :/

Canuck is Golden and I's strongest civ read and your only suspect. That's funny.
