Death and Taxes: An Economics Mafia [DAY 7]

[Sloonei]

I took everything between Epignosis and MovingPictures to be Epi trying shake things up for the sake of seeing it/getting reactions. MP is and has been a very prominent figure in the game who everyone seems to have an opinion of. By putting even more focus on him, it sort of forced a number of reactions out of everyone. It always seemed to me like two townies going at it with Day 1 suspicions. I would not want to lynch either of them today.

[Tangrowth]

Seriously, though, I forgive you all if you lynch Epi tomorrow.

And I think the Epi/Eloh thing stinks. Both could be bad, tbqh. I haven't liked Eloh in this game since her first post where she felt the need to have an opinion on everyone, while going after MP for 'sucking up'. Felt like she was trying to fit in and paint a target.

And marmot - it's all your fault!

And TH - I'm on-meta.

If you're bad, then posts like these are genius, because this reads totally genuine civilian Golden to me from a vibes-based standpoint. I just can't stand it.

I'll probably vote Bass, but I am so unsure.

You are an emotional player, and his desperation posts are an emotional appeal.

I feel similarly when I read them.

You know, you're right. I have an internal struggle in that I like to believe I'm an incredibly logical person and that it translates over into my mafia game, but I can't ignore the fact that I operate the game under a heavily emotionally-influenced basis, both in the way that I play and in the way I perceive others' play.

I just feel like the proper approach to the game is a more logically-based one, and I feel that way about life in general, sometimes failing to recognize that obviously emotions are an extension of logic, so I always feel ashamed when I emotionally implode.

You know, I've seen him do this shit time and time again, but I've also seen him approach it as if he was dead serious, and I honestly thought he was dead serious, which is what was infuriating me, because I knew he knew better than to make such a ridiculous weak case. I should have known better that he wasn't being entirely genuine.

[Sloonei]

And I've been getting vaguely townish vibes from Golden since he became a suspect of a few people, but it's admittedly not something I can substantiate yet, and I am obviously not familiar with his playstyle.

[Russtifinko]

A little under 30 minutes to poll end! If you haven't voted, now's the time....you wouldn't want to miss the Day 1 lynch poll.

Important announcements will accompany the posts evening - keep an eye out for them, please.

[Tangrowth]

That said, Sloonei, what makes you think it isn't Epi just being a ballsy mafia?

I see you've taken a page from the MP hosting book. Very nice.

[Dragon D. Luffy]

You people post way too much. I leave to take a shwoer and when I'm back there are 2 new pages. ffs.

Also, can I ask a question? Who is splints?

Splints = fingersplints

I much prefer that abbreviated version of her name to "fingers". Lol. That just sounds weird.

And yes, we post way too much, at the detriment of my RL.

Gut feeling that what he was doing was a concerted effort to gather and produce as much information about players as he could. This could prove to be false later on, as I will continue to pay attention to him as a candidate, but in this particular instance I'm siding with Town Epi.

That's fair enough, thanks!

You don't have a real life! Spacedaisy doesn't exist: she is your 12th multi-account.

[Bass_the_Clever]

Well I voted golden because I dont want to be lynched day one.

[Tangrowth]

Well, seems Golden will probably be lynched. Guess we'll see what happens.

Let it be known that civilian Golden has INSANE instincts at catching mafia, so I'm inclined to heavily consider his suspicion of Epi and re-evaluate my thoughts on him when conducting an ISO. I may not change my mind, but I do think this should be noted.

Golden, any other last words, assuming you do get lynched?

[Sloonei]

Bass casts a self-preservatory vote against Golden.

[Sloonei]

i probably should have let you make the announcement yourself, i apologize

[Tangrowth]

Fair enough, but I expect thoughts on other players. Please elaborate even the slightest of thoughts.

[Marmot]

While you're here Bass.

Bass_the_Clever, what are your thoughts or reads on the six new players in this game? I have not seen you mention any of them yet. The same question stands for Black Rock and fingersplints.

Lynch Epi tomorrow.

I thought I'd made that clear.

100%, that is who you need to lynch tomorrow.

[Marmot]

Still waiting on acrosstheaether, Black Rock, Dom, and TinyBubbles to vote.

You did, I just was curious if you had anything to say about anyone else that you haven't already said.

[sanmateo]

elo's and metalmarsh's votes for golden kind of bother me, specially elo's.

[Tangrowth]

Agreed.

[Golden]

I'm telling you guys, LYNCH EPI TOMORROW

You will not regret this, I assure you.

I'll ISO him later before I develop my Rainbow List, I promise, especially if you die and flip civilian.

Alright, I'm voting Bass. I feel more strongly about him, gotta be honest with myself.

Forget an iso.

Don't let an opportunity for analysis and response get in there.

Don't allow epi the opportunity to sway you against his lynch.

JUST LYNCH HIM!

lol. I once modded an Arrested Development themed game on RYM where there was a role that did pretty much exactly that. He was instructed to just narrate the events of the game as much as he could. It was delightful to watch from behind the scenes.

You staking your mafia rep on this read?

Why would it have anything to do with my mafia rep?

That's so fucking awesome, man, I love Arrested Development so much.

I just was most-jokingly affirming the sheer strength of your read.

[Golden]

It's not a read, it's my final words.

[sanmateo]

We've seen a little more from other players now. What do you folks think of Elo, Epi, Golden, G-Man, etc...?

I'll answer myself shortly.

I don't know about you, but I think Elo is civ civ civ hehe

Anyway, I am leaning civ on Epi, Golden, MM, Splints, and Jimmy. I am not sure about San, Sloo, DDL, MP, and BR.

said she was leaning civ on golden before he started getting much attention, the after doing a whole case on mp she threw her vote at golden because... he had the most votes? i might've missed a post but i think she's bad

[JaggedJimmyJay]

I don't think Epignosis has made a single good point in this game and his Golden vote is nonsense. So I'm definitely on board with making him dead.

[Golden]

I think epi and elo are in it together

Do you feel that certain that Golden is civilian?

She literally gave no reason other than the fact that she wanted to give me the BotD to calm down or something to that effect. In fact, I forgot about this post you quote, thanks for bringing it back up, I can't believe she said she was leaning civ on Golden. That makes her look WAY worse.

[Tangrowth]

I think epi and elo are in it together

I am really starting to think this as well; the effort to get heat on me was a 100% coordinated manipulation between the both of them.

care to elaborate on this thought?

[Golden]

Elo is a really good bet for a lynch, honestly.

Anyway, interesting that there was a sudden push to make sure I was lynched by two very savvy players who had not really suspected me at all.

You could do Elo first, Epi second, that would be ok.

[Elohcin]

Well, I am not bad. So you won't be happy with the result. Unless you are bad.

[Elohcin]

And still, can someone please tell me WHY you want to lynch me? B/c I know Epi has caught baddies lying about RL? B/c I said Epi COULD BE, MIGHT BE onto something with MP? B/c I said MPs emotional outburst makes me question him?

[fingersplints]

fingersplints has also probably moved into the slightly orange portion of my rainbow, if such a thing exists.
Golden would he more neutral and MP07 possibly a slight town read, for the record. I do not pretend to be right about any of these things, just offering my input.

What's the orange section again? These rainbow lists aren't great for me. Colored text is disabled on the computer

[Golden]

And for my final final words, I will say.

This is the most ludicrous day one lynch on me I've ever seen, and I've seen some.

The number of people who provided any actual suspicion of me or discussion of me before voting for me numbers one. DDL. You could say Elo did, but it was very sudden and late.

It would be nice to be able to survive beyond day three, eh? No forgiveness for the marmot. NEVER. You can take my life, but you can never take my freedom to hound the marmot to the end of his days! (But I think he is probably civ).

[Marmot]

This is very fun to watch.
