Linki, @ Wilgy, he was blendy. I felt sketchy about him, tbh.
This came soon after Wilgy replaced in. The "linki" line is about his predecessor Inawordyes. S~V~S didn't actually say anything about IAWY prior to this. I think calling a low-poster "blendy" is as easy as it gets regardless of the alignments of both the person saying it and the person being referred to. It doesn't tell me much about Wilgy.

what about a Wigly lynch?
I could do this, he is in my top 3. I think IAWY was bad, the only person who really knows him said he was bad, and Wilgy has not come in here and made me feel any better about him.

I think LC is a risk to the town in general, but if we collectively believe we have a lynchable cylon, I am OK with that too. This way when Cain starts killing people or whatever anti town thing it is that his role does besides imposing black & white rules on a grey situation, I can get to say "I told you so" which I enjoy immensely whenever it happens.

:shrug2: If Cain has any other effects on the game, especially starting to kill, then even I will be forced to re-evaluate my stance on her. Like I said, for a player like me, Cain has not changed a thing about my game or goals. We haven't seen any sort of the dire effects you are prognosticating, so I'm glad that it seems like you aren't putting the cart before the horse anymore.
I hate that Cain put black & white conditions on a grey situation. I don't like being imposed upon, tbh. At least one person who was town, and possibly more, now has no reason to play as town, and I am not sure why I seem to be the only one to find this disturbing :shrug2:

I said during the night that if the win con change was nullified or mitigated somehow, I would be happy to back off. Instead the Prez gave us a fluff law, which tells me that the Prez can't do that.

You said to give you time. I am willing to do so. But I myself do not think Cain is on the side of the town, I don't see how she possibly could be. She is pro human, yes, but will not hesitate to toss humans to the side if they get in her way. But if Cain proves to be benign, I am content to wait and watch.

What are your thoughts on Wilgy?

Is anyone else willing to vote LC? Can I convince you, S~V~S? It might be good to have the most votes on him before the night is half over, to ensure he won't jump the fleet early and all the votes will count. Assuming he's Cain. Which I do.
I said I would give him time,which to me means until the end of the day. If nothing Cain related happens,I can then more to the next day and wait. I would love to lynch him, but he makes be feel bad, and BR makes me feel worse, but when I was trying to push for that,no one else seemed to be hearing what I was saying, or if they were, they did not agree. This is a huge part of the problem the civs have on this site in general; everyone wants to flog their own suspects, and no one is willing to listen to anyone else. We have one guy going on about JJJ, and tbh, that is the worst possible lynch, imo. Everybody only cares about their own suspects.

This is why I asked everyone to picl their top three last night, maybe we can come to a consensus.

I think Wilgy is likely to be cylon. I thought IAWY was a cylon, the only person who has history with IAWY thought he was a cylon, and Wilgy is not acting like a civ. He is my primary candidate for a cylon.
Again she calls Wilgy a likely "cylon". She's almost interchanging "cylon" with "bad" when she talks about Wilgy, which is a weird thing considering her hatred of LC, the man who literally did equate cylon with bad.

S~V~S puts up a case against Wilgy on Day 5

This case is a very wordy way of essentially just saying "Wilgy isn't participating very much and IAWY didn't either". The case is rather weak, and it appears more cooked in a "capitalize on lazy Wilgy" way than a "bus Wilgy" way. Nice look.

Can't tell for sure, but it looked like Rico said what I was alluding to, that Epi isn't what he appears to be.

Rico, smile for yes, frownface for no.
It looks tome like you are spitballing,tbh. Trying to find reasons to suspect people.

Based on his behavior, I have no reason to think Epi is bad. I have no reason to think the sorties are anything but random.

@Daisy, I did not back off. I said I would give him time. I don;t have to vote until the end, or close to it. I still think the other shoe is going to drop. Golden would not make the secret role a benign kinda-townie role, IMO. The Secret Role is probably very awesome and I am jealous of LC for getting it (presumably & imo). But this role is not just a counterweight to Cavil & Cylons, i would think; it is probably also a counterweight to Adama.

I will be voting for either Wilgy or LC. I think of everyone with votes, Wilgy is sketchy as all fuck, WAY sketchier than OA for sure.
She decided it was necessary to specifically state that he was more sketchy than OA. Might say more about OA than Wilgy.

S~V~S wrote:This is a good point this has to mean SOMETHING for game purposes, or Golden would not have done it. Kind of like why I think Cain is not just another civvie as LC would have us believe; why havea super secret role thatis just another civvie? Golden has put an insane amount of thought (and I do mean insane, Golden, you need help) into this game. Those locations mean something. Canon people, any ideas?
There's a chance the Galactica will be destroyed in a Cylon attack. I'm not sure there's any more significance regarding location than that.
I agree with this. I think that further speculation on this is as useful as trying to figure out who Cavil might be able to recruit. As of now, the only thing one's presence on Galactica affects is Cylon attacks... which we haven't even seen yet. We don't even know if it is a triggered event, a planned event, or a Cylon-chosen event.

I've been looking over Wilgy's posts to see if he's someone I want to vote for. His accusation of OA over a "slip" that I don't think looks too sliplike doesn't look very good on him. He's pretty light on content - I just played as a baddie against Civ Wilgy, and he was this other person, a keen-minded detective that was figuring out all my schemes while I chuckled nervously and denied it. I would be willing to follow you on a Wilgy vote as you ask, S~V~S.
Done.

Strangely eager to work with her most hated foe LC on the matter of going after Wilgy.

S~V~S wrote:Bye LC, I still think Cain was bad news for the civs. I was waiting to see (hopefully) just what exactly LC did other than declaring Martial law. I had thought that perhaps LC insanified Rico, the insanifier seemed more insane than it used to be, and LC is the inventor. But simple insanifying seems a bit tame for the super secret secret role, so perhaps I am OK not having found out.

Civs are mostly human, but not all, it seems. So someones strategy of having an unclaimed person as first lynch,and a prior claimer as back up seemed to have worked :)

Now that Wilgy is taking the game seriously, I will reassess him. I still think he sounded "bad" prior to becoming a lynch candidate,not just "cylon", but specifically bad.

Glorfindel wrote:The fact that DrWilgy turned out to be a Cylon doesn't really surprise me but I think there is a significant difference between a good Cylon and a bad Cylon and I personally hold the view that the latter are a minority. I too am reassessing my thoughts on him but I wouldn't consider lynching him on his species alone. May I ask S-V-S - what it was specifically about his behaviour that struck you as 'bad'?
His total lack of engagement as compared to other games where he was a civ.

Dex wrote:
I have no idea what his role is, but I'm certain he's in the anti-Cavil faction. Again, it's NOT for no reason. This is no whim.
I would like to hear the reason, becasue I specifically feel he is bad. He stepped up to the plate to defend himself, but before that, he was *not* town Wilgy, imo.

Certain tends to mean "info"; that is why when I was certain about LC, I clarified it that I did NOT have info. I assume you are not implying this. But I want you to clarify this. I DO trust you, but just becasue you are a civ does not mean you are correct.

If you have a reason, I would like to hear it.
S~V~S backpedaled a little bit on her anti-Wilgy stance starting in Night 5, which is a goofy thing since I think that's the day he claimed cylon. I'm a bit bothered that she was so willing to open the door for someone that she had previously been lambasting when circumstance should have only fed her fire -- she'd been calling him "bad" and separately "cylon" for days, and the latter was all-but confirmed when he claimed. That's offset by him trying a little harder? This bothers me enough that it makes me less inspired to call her prior smear-case against him a good look.

So Say We All :noble:

Epi: Civ
Wilgy: Civ
Glorfindel: Bad

And I agree that Six is quite possibly Indy, but I don't think she is any of these people. And I don't think sig is the President. Since no one was lynched, that means one of them had the most votes as the host has told us immunity means zero votes. Probably sig, since what would be the point of Glorfindel claiming if he was not a cylon? And that means lynch save. Most people seem to have thought sig was more likely to be bad, so I am not sure who would have saved him, if not himself. ALTHOUGH I tend to think of a lynch *switch* as a baddie thing and a lynch *save* as a civvie thing. So there is that.

But be that as it may, I think we need to lynch Glorfindel today, but I also think discussion before votes, kicking it old school, is a good thing.

Hi Polo, Let me ask; is everyone who felt Cain to be a priority bad, or is it just me?

RIP Marmot
The transition is complete by Day 7 with this civilian read of Wilgy.

I have no idea where I want to vote; worrying about defending (Even though you say I have defended enough, I don't feel as strongly about that as you do :p ) plus these people coming back plus Glorfindel coming up civ and the pall that casts on lore leads me to think we need to reconsider across the board. That is why Wilgy came off "civ" to "not sure". So still not sure where I want to vote. I won't be voting for any of the green names today. I doubt I will be voting for INH or you ever.

She hated Wilgy before lore saved him for her, and used the same lore against Glorfindel.

Glorfindel flipped town, and lore was destroyed.

SVS this is the second time you used this mentality to justify my scumdoodlin in your head. I don't play the same in every game. I go out of my way to do the opposite.

SVS, now that I've gotten off my ass, mind looking at what I've contributed and discussing it with me?

She answered Silverwolf's call for people to discuss Epignosis. Well she "answered" it in that she made a post. She actually said absolutely nothing. She gives us a reason to perhaps view him with some suspicion and then promptly discards that statement, rendering it pointless. She supported him lightly by cosigning two of his baddie reads (Ricochet and G-Man).

S~V~S wrote:How horrible :puppy:

He wanted to die, and now he was rezzed? He is a rezzed baddie?

So say we all.
If we're bold, we can probably figure out whether Epi and S~V~S were teamed up just with these two highlighted sentences. It's really all there, right in front of our faces. S~V~S was the first person to say anything about alignment after Epi's lynch and resurrection. S~V~S later claimed that she had believed all cylons are bad (she obviously knew otherwise as John Cavil himself). If we review the progression of S~V~S's Day 1 treatment of Epi:

~ Provides a non-read of him while supporting him on his baddie reads
~ Later suggests he seems okay to her and that she "definitely liked some posts", but she never lifted a finger to resist his lynch
~ After his lynch/resurrection, she immediately suggests he was a baddie (in the form of a suggestive question)

To me, this looks like S~V~S reveling in an Epi mislynch while keeping her own hands clean of it on Day 1. Afterword she tried to take advantage of an opportunity to promote discord and further distrust when he flipped as a cylon character. If I only read Epignosis based on this one point, I read him as not being on her team. I could be wrong though, and I would very much like to hear other people's perspectives of this specific moment.
Spoiler: show
S~V~S wrote:When Epi was then lynched & revealed, in retrospect, I thought that maybe he WANTED to be lynched becasue he knew he would come back & be revealed a friendly Cylon :shrug:

I'm skipping ahead now because there's too many damned posts.

Lots of people have named G-Man as a top suspect and I'm curious about that -- I haven't seen as much silly posting or participation in general as I might expect from him, but idk. I was also pretty on board with the observation that JJJ was not his usual zillions-of-posts self, but he's jumped in to do some ISOs as a response to that accusation, and I'm not sure whether to read that as defensive coverage or just a change in timing/availability/energy.

I would like to hear more from Zebra, I think I tend to get odd vibes from her usually but I'm really unclear on what she's done this game and her name sticks out as one I'm curious about. In fact I might go look at her ISO and see what I find (all I remember is the OA thing).
G-Man had some big posts that were summaries and not comments. That's why I put him in my initial list, and I believe that's why S~V~S has him in hers. It's rare when she and I agree on something like that.

Mostly meaningless self-defense vote on Day 9. He did attempt to provide some kind of rationale, which strikes me as unnecessary.

~~~

He spent more time defending S~V~S than perhaps any other player (Dex might content for that title). I think that's within Epi's baddie repertoire, but he's also capable of being wrong. When high-content analytic players are wrong about something, it tends to gain more spotlight than is warranted because everyone sees how wrong they were in broad daylight. I would know.

I think S~V~S's behavior emerging from his lynch/resurrection is the most telling stuff here and that it works in his favor.

Given that Polo was able to get away with his behavior and then ended up exactly right about S~V~S's character, I think it's a valid concern that he might have been so right because he already knew her alignment and role as her team mate -- especially considering her resurrection and the nonsense we're seeing now with the Cavil sock. Polo didn't do anything "wrong" in this hypothetical scenario to warrant punishment, he simply bussed his team mate.

To claim that it was a "Boomslang gambit" and he was acting entirely on a hunch is frankly hard to believe. He didn't just call her bad, he called her Cavil.
Crazy-ass theory or crazy ass-theory?

This is nonsense. I have explained why she raised my suspicions and have built a case on her. The fact that I had enough gut to go forward with it was a gambit, indeed, but it was not void of reason.

I don't know man. Hopefully I'll be able to look into the S~V~S interactions and derive more conclusive reads. I'll decide how I think you look when I have it all in front of me.

Re: Battlestar Galactica Mafia - Night 9

Lol I found a bunch of stuff about the BoomGambit and was ninja'd by Polo himself.
Hrm.

Earlier in the game, SVS said she didn't know what the Boomslang Gambit was, but it was explained to her. Then yesterday (or whenever recently) she again claims not to know what it is. That's weird.

I don't know what it says about Polo that she faked not knowing about it again, if anything. Derp.

Hrm.

The Boomslang Gambit. In Game of Champions 2015 (I love referencing this game, can anyone guess why? :p ), the most hysterically funny shit ever happened.

Boomslang, a lovely player from our site, went all out against Long Con in thread. He never said he had info, but the way he was calling out Long Con for being bad, the thread kind of just assumed he did so he must be right. I think he even made a post 100% guaranteeing a Long Con baddie flip. The town eventually lynched Long Con. Long Con was good. As it turns out, Boomslang was also good and was not an info role and had no info, he was just guessing. Hahaha.

Anyway...

Note # 1 - Polo did not play in this game.

Note # 2 - S~V~S hosted this game.

How does Polo know about the Boomslang Gambit and S~V~S does not? This is incredibly strange to me, and I don't like it. Hrm. Given that Cavil is still alive, though to be fair we won't know until Day phase whether he can vote or not, I wouldn't be surprised if Polo going all out against SVS in thread was an act to make Polo look super awesome even if he's not.

Polo - How do you know about the Boomslang Gambit?

S~V~S - How do you not know about the Boomslang Gambit?

This is how I know about the Boomslang Gambit. This was discussed in this very game.

I'd make a joke about JJJ and Silverwolf's strong cred for hunting nutella being off the table now, but I've long stopped sounding reasonable.

What I take from Cavil's resurrection and claim of immortality is that he's probably unlynchable until all the other players aligned with him are.

Re: Battlestar Galactica Mafia - Day 9

THERE'S A METAPHOR IN THIS SOMEWHERE

"Execute the Boomslang gambit" cried the Admiral. The Pegasus immediately carried out one of the more complex cylon-evading maneouvres known to man, which if used in combat would involve simultaneous explosion and implosion of a cylon base star.

The Pegasus was manned by a shadow crew, away from the planet of New Caprica. They had noted the Cylons coming to occupy from inside the nebula, and jumped away just before the cylons could have read that the ship was present. The cylons had no prior knowledge of the Pegasus (as far as the Admiral knew) and so it might be an advantage to have it off-grid.

The Admiral puffed out his chest. He was proud at how well everyone carried out his orders. He was very satisfied with himself. They were ready to liberate New Caprica.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The attack came in swift and fast. A large percentage of the colonies were liberated from cylon occupation, as the ships left the planets atmosphere and jumped to a safe location. The cylons weren't well prepared for an attack in the sky, and had little ability to stop them with a single base star and one complement of heavy raiders. The losses on the ground were harsh, but they claimed one success for themselves, the death of S~V~S, who was a known enemy of the colonies.

Then, as a final Act, the Pegasus was sacrificed in what could only be described as the best execution of the Boomslang Maneouvre the colonies had ever seen!

S~V~S has been lynched. She was John Cavil. Cavil-aligned, surprisingly.
John Cavil has been resurrected.
The fleet has left New Caprica and resumed its search for Earth.
You have 24 hours to send in your night actions.

Right, the Boomslang reference, I forgot to weigh in. First of all, thanks for bringing it up, because it was [expletive-rich descriptive rant redacted] and I'm still upset about it, among other things. Boomslang high-tailed it out of here for a month and a half after that shameful display blew up in his face. I'm not sure if I'll keep to my sworn revenge against him next time I see him in a game at this point, because I'll be so happy to see him back again that I'd almost feel bad. The most important factor here being that I get to bitch about what Boomslang did without having to be a dick and bring it up myself. So again, thanks Rico.

But back to this game... S~V~S has already claimed to have no info despite no one else even remotely bringing the subject up... and Boomslang was acting just how a person with info who didn't give-a-damn-who-knows-it would act. So my initial interpretation of your application of the Boomslang Gambit (S~V~S) doesn't really compute for me.

If you are making a wholly different point, then it is over my head.
Hysterical the SVS I literally reword NOT TO focus on Boomslang's disasterous happening and Damned Worm write me a prose Emperor Dalek on it! :rolleyes:

Oh, sorry. "My only gripe, as I've said before, is for it not to turn out to be yet another messy "Boomslang gambit"." This really sounds like a warning that we were potentially headed for a Boomslang Gambit. I'll refrain from commenting again until I understand better.

I play based on my gut and how I feel about others. Especially people like LC who is a very careful baddie. If you are unhappy with the way I present my suspicion, don't vote based on it. But please don;t tell me how I should address things, ok? I have no clue what a Boomslang Gambit is, all I know is how I play the game.
When you say "please don't tell me how to address things", that's fine, but the fact is that some players here are "addressing things" falsely, or avoiding addressing things in a straightforward way, or purposely addressing things in a manipulative way. Sometimes, critical analysis of HOW a player addresses things IS how you catch a baddie.

So, I'd like to counter that statement with, go ahead and tell anyone you want "how to address things", if you think it will help get to the truth and get a Civ win. When you do that, be sure not to be a dick about it, so as to avoid anyone getting their feathers ruffled. :grin:

I'm sorry but I don't understand what the Boomslang gambit is. Could you give a short explanation?
Boomslang barked for two or more phases at Long Con being 100% bad, harder than a trainer dog pointing at cocaine under truck wheels, and most of us considered it to have been a cop check. Not only was that inaccurate and LC flipped civ, but Boomslang was in fact a mere curser or some smaller role (don't recall) and he had done all based on gut. The mislynch repercussion was kinda dreadful for the civ game.
Lol. Omg I was dying when Boom flipped as the question curser or whatever and Long Con's ensuing response "Fuck you Boomslang" in dead red. Hahahahaha!

I am pretty happy with my gut success rate. I am a tone reader moreso than gut, really, and tone is not something you can convey in a multiquote. Many,not all, but many, of my suspicions tend to be based on how a persons posts make me feel. As I said, if you don't agree with it, don't vote based on it. Some people don't leave a trail of breadcrumbs.

Linki @ Rico, oh that. Yeah I said I have no info,and I don't and if I did I would be alot more trying to build a thread based case. Poor Boom was 100% sure LC was bad (and so did a lot of people based on Macs shenanigans) so he faked that.

Linki @ OA, I think I would check on the dog.
You're talking more general, I'm asking more specific (as in posts made in this very game), but I guess we'll leave at that. My reference also wasn't about you having info or such, nor was I demanding such specifics for a gut-lead hunt such as yours.

I'm sorry but I don't understand what the Boomslang gambit is. Could you give a short explanation?
Boomslang barked for two or more phases at Long Con being 100% bad, harder than a trainer dog pointing at cocaine under truck wheels, and most of us considered it to have been a cop check. Not only was that inaccurate and LC flipped civ, but Boomslang was in fact a mere curser or some smaller role (don't recall) and he had done all based on gut. The mislynch repercussion was kinda dreadful for the civ game.

I play based on my gut and how I feel about others. Especially people like LC who is a very careful baddie. If you are unhappy with the way I present my suspicion, don't vote based on it. But please don;t tell me how I should address things, ok? I have no clue what a Boomslang Gambit is, all I know is how I play the game.
I didn't really mean it as any criticism, but is it hard to look into address an angle that's more hint-based than gut-based?
