Re: Currents Mafia [DAY 2]
I walked home. I'm here for now until they call back about the car which could be whenever.
Wilgy this looks quite convoluted to me -- you have to endure quite a workload of thought progression to arrive upon conclusions (highlighted) that I just find dubious considering the source. Do you really believe that a mafia Epignosis would have, let alone express, regret for leading the lynch of a civilian? That's the name of the game for those who are mafia aligned, and its further pronounced by a player like Epi who tends to command a number of cases and lynches. I struggle to believe that you believe in this stuff.DrWilgy wrote:I'd like to think that the proclaiming of this observation has more when to it to be observed.
What was it's purpose given that the wagon Epi had wanted just took off?
It was a strong case and wagon in Epi's mind. It prompted him to ask who was bussing their teammate. Due to this, I see his statement as a regret other than an irony. It weakened his own case and I'm unsire why.
If it was because he regretted the wagon I can see 2 reasons,
1. He's uncomfortable leading a wagon on a civ.
2. He wants others to form ideas and not just bandwagon.
Reasons why I have trouble reading into option 2, the civ angle is because he moved back when the wagon was well stacked up. He took away his high momentum vote, put it in the same spot, just as a low momentum vote.
I don't think Epi would do that if he had a thought that players were sheeping.
The other reason why I have trouble reading into option 2 is the wondering of who is bussing. If a civ stated this, it would mean they believe in their vote. Why not be happy the person you think is bad is getting lynched?

Re: Currents Mafia [DAY 2]
For the moment my preferred lynch is among this group:
Wilgy
FZ
Elohcin
INH
I have active suspicion of the first two and no truly moving reason to view the latter two as civilians.

Re: Currents Mafia [DAY 1]
So I went back and looked at why people chose not to vote FZ on Day 1, as she requested.
Then I cried when Dizzy and Speed said they love the Syndicate.
INH pushed nutella's lynch, and called MP/FZ a "he said/she said" kind of thing.
Reading those two posts again has made me more suspicious of INH.
****************************************************************************
Maybe you should just show me directly what you were implying was there to look at. The things you imply would change my mind.
To this I say, it's only a factor if FZ is Civ. If FZ is bad, then "I'm spending all my time defending myself" shows a "survive to win" mentality as a baddie indicator in the same way. A greater way, actually, given it was Day 1 and a baddie caught on Day 1 really hasn't had much chance to craft winning schemes yet.Epignosis wrote:To be fair, I think FZ. is accustomed to instances where civilians don't win if they're dead. If that's a true reflection of her subconscious thinking right now, I'd say that is a civilian indicator.JaggedJimmyJay wrote:Pardon my crudeness, but fuck all that. Reads right now are more useful than defense.FZ. wrote:I'm spending so much time defending myself.
This doesn't inspire me to change my read on FZ. This was more about nutella, and about the fact that FZ gave dire warnings and appealed to past instances of MP mislynching her. And then hugs and tears.MovingPictures07 wrote:I'll give FZ. a second here and move my vote to nutella, to express that recent posts she's made have bugged me, and that she could die today instead. Inspire me, nutella.
Still liked the FZ lynch, but felt the tide shifting when CFD mode got activated.JaggedJimmyJay wrote:If not FZ, I'd rather lynch INH than Long Con. He has questions to answer, but lynching him right now would feel like a knee-jerk.
One of those teammatey feels I got. And if not, well, there's still nothing here that makes me say "Oh geez, you're right, FZ is Civ!"speedchuck wrote:I'd... probably lynch nut over FZ right now. I'm gonna wait there for a minute.
Then I cried when Dizzy and Speed said they love the Syndicate.

INH pushed nutella's lynch, and called MP/FZ a "he said/she said" kind of thing.
Reading those two posts again has made me more suspicious of INH.
yeah don't do that again kEpignosis wrote:Wait till you get to the big LC swing.Long Con wrote:... geez, I'm still two pages behind, you guys are cray. Last thing I saw was a big FZ swing.
I agree with whoever said that this sounds super disingenuous after nutella's last post after the poll had closed.FZ. wrote:This is too nerve wrecking. What's with all the last minute switches?
****************************************************************************
Ok, I did it. I think I got all the people that had voted you, but changed their minds, and I didn't really see anything convincing, is there something you'd like to point out that I missed? Or were you just saying that to push an "uncivvie" look upon me? I don't agree with Epi's reasoning, I don't have the personal ties with you like MP, and the others didn't have much to say in your defense, they just also suspected others.FZ. wrote:...Not to mention, if you're going to lynch someone, and you see that some people changed their minds about that person, maybe you should go back and read their defence and thoughts at EOD.

Four hours left in the lynch. I'm going to go with my gut and vote for speedchuck. If anyone wants to join me with this vote, I'll leave it here, otherwise I'll probably just go with whoever has votes and is lowest on my list. FZ asked us not to lynch her while she's not around, so I'm not likely to vote there.

Re: Currents Mafia [DAY 2]
I like LC's list better than his last one.
FZ I could lynch tomorrow, but I'd rather give her a change to provide some more non-self-focused content first. She seems earnest enough when prodded.
JJJ is acting like town JJJ did, and is getting people to talk. Would be sad to see him go.
Dizzy is playing in a way I like and find helpful and towny. Every time I drop her read, she comes back and I find myself liking the cadence/content of her posts again. Hm. That could be a bad thing, I guess, if the posts don't stick with me, but otherwise I like it.
inh is coasting on a good response to D1 pressure. I would rather give them time than lynch them immediately.
I liked wilgy's early posts and separate viewpoints from other people, but I feel the substantiation has somewhat failed. Of course, that brings me to
Epignosis, who feels like a really conflict-heavy guy. It seems like there is no person he'd give a town read. I'm fairly certain that the only reason he doesn't want to lynch FZ is because he can do it later, and not lynching JJJ atm is a no-brainer. I don't have any meta on Epi, but I generally find people with townreads to be townier that people with more scumreads. Why? Townreads are inconvenient for scum to have. It gives them targets to avoid for mislynches. Better to be able to lynch any townie.
Luke and Eloh have done nothing to make me think they are town.
LC I'm feeling better about after his more recent posts, so I might would move him out of the POE.
TL;DR Lots of feels, some meta, and unbiased assumptions about Epi that he will immediately shoot down.
Marmot feels nothing like scum marmot did in phenon, to me at least. He's helping when here, and approaches things in an interesting way.speedchuck wrote:Marmot

Re: Currents Mafia [DAY 2]
While it's preferable that players are in the thread and able to contribute in real-time as EOD approaches, I don't think it's wise to forego suspicion for that reason alone. There are a limited number of lynches available in a 13 player game and the most suspicious people should be lynched period. If that is FZ then she should be lynched. Right now I am most moved in that direction or Wilgy as the top alternative.

Re: Currents Mafia [DAY 2]
I had vague concerns about speedchuck's tone on Day 1, but I have felt better about him today. The content is more limited, but that might be true for everyone -- Day 2 has been pretty quiet in general. I'm not a fan of that lynch option.

Re: Currents Mafia [DAY 2]
I would go Wilgy in a pinch. One reservation I have is that I don't know if he'd go after Epi in that way if he were bad. But he's still right down there on my rainbow list, so he fits my criteria. I prefer to let FZ wait and, as speedchuck said, hear more content from her.

Re: Currents Mafia [DAY 2]
A point Epi made about FZ which warrants consideration is that she has played nearly the whole game so far on the defensive.

I have only the slightest reason not to vote Wilgy. Very small reason. Otherwise I have none.

Re: Currents Mafia [DAY 2]
My concern here is that I struggle to see how the mindset develops from the specific game selected. To be generally fearful of a mafia Epignosis is understandable, because you've proven repeatedly to be such a capable evildoer. Vocaroo as the cited example though refers to a game which I would call non-applicable in the realm of meta. It was played with voices and the dynamic was very different, and your content specifically was almost entirely musical. The potential relevance of that to this game, standard text Mafia, would seem quite limited to me.Epignosis wrote:I have only the slightest reason not to vote Wilgy. Very small reason.

Re: Currents Mafia [DAY 2]
I feel like you mean to say "a Civ in that position...", otherwise this is just us theorizing on FZ's basic mindset, not her alignment. I think I understand that mindset - I think I tend to focus on myself a lot when I play. The idea doesn't make me change my alignment ideas regarding FZ - I don't know if "defensive FZ is Civ FZ" or is it shows her to be bad, or if it has little or no bearing on her alignment.JaggedJimmyJay wrote:A point Epi made about FZ which warrants consideration is that she has played nearly the whole game so far on the defensive.

Re: Currents Mafia [DAY 2]
I mean that, for a player who is inclined to defend themselves whenever accused, consistently being in that position limits their ability to produce much else in the game thread. In that regard, if FZ is a civilian then she might not have had much of an opportunity, at least as she sees it, to show that. It's a difficult matter for me to sort because of my strategic perception of civilian Mafia is not like that. It's like culture clash.Long Con wrote:I feel like you mean to say "a Civ in that position...", otherwise this is just us theorizing on FZ's basic mindset, not her alignment.

Re: Currents Mafia [DAY 2]
Ten posts and nothing much within them to judge. If you pressed me, I'd say she's a civilian who doesn't do well keeping up with two things at once and more or less stuck using a phone to post.JaggedJimmyJay wrote:Epi, what do you think of Elohcin so far?
If I had to offer something a little more substantial, I'd point out this:
I'm perfectly capable of having fun and being bad. That said, the fact that she would use my tone to judge me is a slight indication that she had to use something of me to think about her answer to the question, so she genuinely didn't know whether I'm good or bad, and the underlined allowance reinforces that I think.Elohcin wrote:Now, I haven't totally caught up, but I think his tone is that of just having fun.

I'd say I have two town reads already then. Cool.
He may still be mafia, but out of the gate...I saw him as having fun and not serious.
@FZ (I think it was) - I don't really have baddie tells for Epi.
I'll catch up on in a bit.

As do I, and if she has not had much of an opportunity, then I'm fine with giving her some more.

Re: Currents Mafia [DAY 2]
If FZ is town, we're hardly giving her a chance to talk without being defensive.
If scum, pushing off the lynch more than likely gives mafia an extra day of head start. Assuming they can push a mislynch. In a game this small, we don't have much time for that.
I'm gonna consider myself open to voting FZ.

FZ.
FZ's response to the attacks struck me as less than convincing. Same thing with Marmot throwing my name around as an easy target. He seems a little lazy to me. Same with 3J, who seems to have abandoned the Vompatti gameplay for something more milquetoast and demanding of others.
Dys and Epi are my two townreads, and FZ/Marmot would be my preferred lynch.
This is the second day in a row you've shown up in the waning moments of the day phase after not being around prior. The first time this happened you were a lynch candidate. Jay gave you the floor to defend yourself and present your reads, a solid move on his part. This time, you come into the thread and call Jay's methods less than convincing.
I don't see how one of these things leads to the other.

Wilgy going after Epi doesn't make too much sense from a town perspective, motive-wise. That's probably the best I've got.

Re: Currents Mafia [DAY 2]
As long as mafia are not directly under lynch suspicion, they have no incentive to scumhunt. Laying low is fine so long as nobody really pays much attention.

Of course, could just be an uninvested player, or she might still be trying to catch up.
This vote is also pressure, in a way, corresponding to that. I want her in here to give something.

Re: Currents Mafia [DAY 2]
Switched to Wilgy for now. Doesn't seem like speedchuck is going. I'm at work, I'll try to sneak a check or two of the thread before lynch time.
