If India was the Disguiser and Echo was the real Oracle then this looks like a weird move. If that were the case then. This post would have been the disguiser telling us to lynch their future self right?

Re: Phenon: Origins Mafia [Day 2]
If Echo we're the real Oracle then it would have been impossible for us to have been given Oracle results listing him as the Disguiser, because the Oracle cannot self target... and even if they could the oracle's ability is separate from the Disguiser thing, there's no reason why the Disguiser would effect the oracle reveal... Right?

Which would mean India was the original account of the Disguiser and Echo the actual kill last night. Important for when looking at possible connections.

...Huh?
Nah. Technically this could be the case but it seems highly unlikely. I'm pretty sure that India was actually the oracle and targeted echo and India was targeted for the kill and echo has been the disguiser the whole time.] aubergine

Re: Phenon: Origins Mafia [Day 2]
This was the problem thst crossed my mind, as would it really be targeting themselves if they were taken over by the Disguiser? How would it work if an Echo that was Oracle targeted the India account that was the Disguiser but is now using the Echo account?Alpha wrote: ↑Sat Dec 16, 2017 11:32 am If Echo we're the real Oracle then it would have been impossible for us to have been given Oracle results listing him as the Disguiser, because the Oracle cannot self target... and even if they could the oracle's ability is separate from the Disguiser thing, there's no reason why the Disguiser would effect the oracle reveal...

Could just be mafia derped and didn't use their Disguiser, despite their being no reason not to.

Re: Phenon: Origins Mafia [Day 2]
I'm acting under the assumption that India was the oracle and exposed Echo as the disguiser. It might not be totally kosher, but it's in the thread: India's one dead post is looks like a confirmation to me.

Re: Phenon: Origins Mafia [Day 2]
Echo and Alpha things
This whole exchange looks like Echo trying to explain himself to someone who would actually need an explanation, as in someone not teamed with him.
Conclusion: I don't think they look like teammates.
Echo poked Kilo about his vote with spelling dick in mind (the product of Alpha). This doesn't tell me much. If anything, Echo working an irrelevant game activity into a relevant one by challenging votes might reflect decently on Alpha, as Alpha was the source of the irrelevance. That's rather reachy though.
I think Alpha made himself a bit of an easy target early on with the dick-spelling crusade, and in that regard Echo may have taken the bait here. That'd be a nice look.Echo wrote: ↑Wed Dec 13, 2017 1:57 pm I, for one, would like to see more jabs.
Like this jab, at Alpha: take my vote until you can come up with a non-dick-related reason to vote someone that I like more than my vote for you. You don't have to waver from your excellent dick plan, but you can't hide behind it.
*vote Alpha*

Re: Phenon: Origins Mafia [Day 2]
Echo and Charlie things
It appears Charlie didn't mention Echo until this phase. I don't fault Charlie for thinking the oracle claim may have been driven by an intent to provide cover, because I also thought that to be a possibility. I'm surprised not to see any prior mentions though given that Echo moved against him, essentially in a piggyback motion alongside Alpha. I'd expect a civilian to protest that in some capacity, or to ask questions.
Conclusion: I'd say they're compatible as teammates, but this content is not indicative that they are teammates.
After giving Alpha crap for the irrelevance of spelling dick, Alpha responded with more substantive content: suspicion of Charlie. Echo promptly jumped on that wagon. Well actually the timestamps show it as a 10 hour difference between the two posts in this quote, but it was still Echo's next post.Echo wrote: ↑Thu Dec 14, 2017 12:08 amOk, well, I'm a letter of my word.

I think "let's stop making jokes and only focusing on killing criminals" is an easy feel-good stance to take in a mafia game, and in Charlie it seems forced.
Echo reiterated his agreement with Alpha's assessment of Charlie. If nothing else, this represents a carefree attitude about voting a guy who took a lot of crap throughout day 1. I don't think that's typical bussing behavior.

Re: Phenon: Origins Mafia [Day 2]
Echo and Delta things
Conclusion: not enough to make a meaningful judgment.
That's it. In some scenarios I might say the first post in the top pyramid isn't great because it would be a textbook example of distancing if Kilo is civilian (asking a civilian why they aren't voting for [teammate] to pin them for it later). However, I am hesitant to put a lot of credence in that here when the core inspiration is literally a dick joke.

Echo and Foxtrot things
Conclusion: some of this content appears forced on both sides. I could see it being a teammate interaction.
This would be the reverse of what I just said about Delta. In this case if they're teammates, Echo is deflecting from Foxtrot to focus on Delta instead, for the sake of the dick joke. Again, I am hesitant to make much of this.
Generic welcome when Foxtrot joined the action.
Echo felt the need to make this observation. I don't know what he meant to imply about Foxtrot if anything. Any forced mention wouldn't be great, and this bears that appearance.
This is everything in Foxtrot's posts about Echo that I can see. I don't know what the purpose of the post is.Foxtrot wrote: ↑Thu Dec 14, 2017 12:14 pmThis is dumb. Echo what word do you wanna spell?Echo wrote: ↑Wed Dec 13, 2017 1:57 pm I, for one, would like to see more jabs.

Echo and Hotel things
I see no mention of Hotel in Echo's posts.
Conclusion: the one data point doesn't inspire confidence. It doesn't terrify me either. This is inconclusive pending further dialogue.
I see no mention of Hotel in Echo's posts.
This is all I can find. Hotel liked Echo after a quick skim. Hotel qualified these as tone reads later. This isn't necessarily an issue, but it does beg expansion now. Please talk about these reads more if you could Hotel as they currently stand, even apart from just Echo.

Echo and Juliet things
Conclusion: it doesn't look great at face value. I'd call them compatible teammates.
Chummy welcome.
Thanks for that?
Teammates or not, Juliet's rap does warrant applause.Echo wrote: ↑Thu Dec 14, 2017 10:39 amJuliet wrote: ↑Thu Dec 14, 2017 10:28 am What's up town, it's Dr. J,
I brought along my vote and I'm here to stay.
You ask me if I'd want to lynch the letter K?
I tell you "Yesssir! After an and MIA".
Why not instead lynch the letter G?
Or better yet, toss your votes on the AWOL D?
A letter that's the furthest from what our eyes see,
Just like the moon at its apogee.
This one is rather juicy. I don't remember by whom or when that Wilgy thing was said, but I'll look into it after this exercise. Echo felt the need to tear down this notion though without specifically implicating anyone by name who promoted it. My instinct is to explore this as a distancing effort, but then I've also just recalled the no-reveals mechanic and how that muddies the waters. I'll see how the rest looks.
If we accept the scenario where India is the oracle and Echo is the disguiser, this is a funny moment. Juliet protested India's protest of Echo's claim, or more accurately the strategy behind the claim. I'm not sure why Juliet felt the claim-on-day-1 plan was a good one.Juliet wrote: ↑Thu Dec 14, 2017 11:54 amIt's not short-sighted, it's a pretty, solid plan,India wrote: ↑Thu Dec 14, 2017 11:11 am We could have waited for day two to pull that. Then the oracle would have a choice regarding who to reveal. How unfortunate.
And furthermore, since the oracle is vanilla so long as it lives, I would imagine that the bad guys would avoid killing it. And the good guys would avoid lynching it as well.
So, I don't really want to believe you, Echo. I wonder what your motive is. Bad guy, trying to avoid being lynched? Good guy, trying not to get lynched or killed? Or are you a genuine Oracle, though very short-sighted?
What would you have done if you were dealt that hand?
Do you have some thoughts on why he took this stand?
I think it's legit, and he/she's a cool little can.
Conclusion: it doesn't look great at face value. I'd call them compatible teammates.

Nothing from Kilo about Echo.

Re: Phenon: Origins Mafia [Day 2]
Charlie is probably the biggest point of separation between the analytic appearance and my perspective of them at face value. I think technical evidence exists that they could be teamed with Echo, but I am more moved by the genuine appearance of their posts.

Re: Phenon: Origins Mafia [Day 2]
The Echo lynch might seem like the obvious choice, but it would be lame if we let the phase fetter away quietly while he gets lynched. Complacency is the opposite of ideal, especially in a game where the analytic power of the civilians is diminished by the mechanics. Let's use our time effectively. Tell me what you think of my interaction checks. Give your own reads. Say things about the mafia game. Say things in general. Escape from the harshness of cruel reality in this message board forum thread.

Re: Phenon: Origins Mafia [Day 2]
The most suspicious thing from last day phase was Foxtrot's change from apathy towards the setup to pushing pretty hard on a few people and making the connections between players that he was saying wouldn't be there with no flips. Would currently be my choice for next days lynch.

Even though I couldn't complete my personal "let's spell dick" mission I'm really proud that it is now being brought up as an event worthy of reading people's alignments based on.
I'm finding myself agreeing with a lot of Bravo's thoughts on potential Echo ties.

Also there's a significant difference between being dismayed at there being no info flips and flipping the table over and complaining there was no point in playing because we aren't being rewarded with information.
Re: Phenon: Origins Mafia [Day 2]
Your stance was ambivalent. You agreed with India's response, asked me to speak more clearly, but immediately turned that into a vote. It looks opportunistic considering I already had a vote.
You immediate response and then-after vote do not line up in my eyes.
No I don't, I'm not fully caught up on the goings-on there.

You took some liberties in writing a dramatic quote while accusing several other unnamed people of saying such things.
Then you stated those people would receive your ire for saying such a thing again.
So who flipped a table over and how did they do it and how is that different from what you said?

Re: Phenon: Origins Mafia [Day 2]
J, this is a really weird wagon for you to hitch your horse to considering you just claimed you weren't caught up yet.
People were acting like babies and complaining about how the game wasn't fair and wouldn't be able to keep their interest. It became this whole thing and Sprityo intervened and had everyone vote for whether or not future lynches would include flips.
I was upset that people were giving up so easily, and weren't willing to try out Sprityo's vision just cus it was unfamiliar to them. I was also unhappy that our only power role had apparently leveraged their role's utility (giving us information) in order to keep from getting killed, but that turned out to have been false.
I complained that the game might be hard but I never gave up, and I also didn't just stop posting for three days straight. I'm still here playing because I believe we can win this game, and even if we can't I'm going to have fun or die trying.

Also, why would I distance from teammates like that if there are no flips? This is what I was trying to decide about Kilo...

Too stressful to care about a game that doesn't reward you with info anyways.
I just wanna have a good time and spell funny words. Like... FIB and.... and IF
Let RNG hunt down mafia.
Linki - and here comes I to rain on F's parade.
These were the posts I was talking about. This is the toxicity I wanted to nip in the bud. I didn't like the whiney attitude and it seemed unfair to sprityo.
Also:
My vote for you was completely fair. I asked you to alter your gimmick to be more communication friendly and you refused to do so, so I placed my vote on you as added motivation to communicate more and also better. My vote didn't even stay on you so I don't really understand what your complaint is.
Re: Phenon: Origins Mafia [Day 2]
Alpha and Bravo are supatown. If either one is bad, we're doomed.
Re: Phenon: Origins Mafia [Day 2]
Bravo, regarding your interaction analysis of Charlie and Echo, I think it seems pretty unlikely that they're teammates.

Duly noted, I'll try to use only full names going forward. My bad.

Re: Phenon: Origins Mafia [Day 2]
The disguiser role is still somewhat confusing to me, but I'm taking your all's word for it and rolling with it. The lack of flips is very bizarre and I have no idea what to do with it. And maybe it's the sockpuppets too, but I've just been having trouble understanding pretty much anything so far.
Re: Phenon: Origins Mafia [Day 2]
Sorry, not sure what else I can do to qualify it, but I can try. My reads were really weak at that stage (and still sort of are I think, but whatever), I was just trying to force myself to commit to at least some things. Alpha seemed genuinely supatown, Golf seemed genuine (given I know who is behind the sock, the frustration regarding receiving negative attention as well as the setup's lack of flips rang true), and Echo seemed genuine (not knowing who is behind the sock, but I liked the "jabs" and attempts to generate discussion when reading through the beginning of the game).Bravo wrote: ↑Sat Dec 16, 2017 7:41 pm Echo and Hotel things
I see no mention of Hotel in Echo's posts.
This is all I can find. Hotel liked Echo after a quick skim. Hotel qualified these as tone reads later. This isn't necessarily an issue, but it does beg expansion now. Please talk about these reads more if you could Hotel as they currently stand, even apart from just Echo.
Conclusion: the one data point doesn't inspire confidence. It doesn't terrify me either. This is inconclusive pending further dialogue.
Charlie (not knowing who was behind the sock but I think I have a solid idea now) seemed maybe insincere but I've since come to terms with that and don't have any particular concerns. and I felt wary of Foxtrot because they seemed insincere as well, and I'm not quite sure how I feel about them still. Need to ISO them probably.
