it seems like a good point to focus on, especially when I don't see the premise of the push coming from juliets? it's such tunnel visioned on the idea sig has to be scum tming and not town tming, and the obvious choice, from her PoV of "sig slipped and dys' case is goat" should be to lynch mac over sig.

Real answer: because I don’t find the Sig flipped on Sabie randomly stuff to be that convincing for the main reason of — almost any town result that would lead to Sig making the claims he did against Mac would almost necessarily equally implicate Sabie. And if he’s scum, well he’s just scum.

I say Sabie — I mean someone on the anti-monitor team. If Sig is town in any case he had to make some jumps for his wild theory that has proven correct, and one of those is “X person is on team B” and it seems clear that he chose Sabie.

I've seen something like that mentioned at least a couple times -- that there are 1 or 3 or 12 town explanations for sig's behavior. Tell me them.

From my pov yesterday, I couldn't see a town role that would know both that Mac was bad and that Mac was targeted. Lassie would know Mac was bad but how would Lassie know Mac was targeted? A watcher (or tracker I get the two confused) would know Mac was targeted but how would he know Mac was bad? That was what led me to not be able to see a town sig.

There isn't one?

I meant if we're going to argue that Juliets is bad because she didn't choose to lynch Mac over Sig, the same can be said for several players.

I don't care about that. Direct the question to [mention]tedxtr[/mention] then. What is the town TMI case for sig?

In hindsight, there was a nonzero chance Mac had been jailkept so Sig was probably the better game theory lynch but I think this worked out pretty well.

I’m thinking he tracks Sabie targeting Mac Night 1. Suspects Mac after Mac silenced him — roles make sense together — and puts 1 and 1 together. Night 2 shoots Sabie and confirms his suspicions.

This is a very specific option.
Otherwise: Night 1 cops Mac? No one dies, bulletproof, silence, makes a few guesses? Maybe?

I think a considerable leap is required to arrive at the highlighted portion -- suspecting that it was Mac among some 20 players that silenced him on that basis is hard to believe. The cop theory doesn't tell me why sig thought Mac was targeted for a kill.

This is a very specific option.

Think about this — he did suspect that Mac had silenced him. He was correct. there is absolutely no way he could have known this as scum or town. Unless I’m missing something or there’s an item.

Actually Sig was a popular town read on night 1, I would be surprised if he hadn’t been given T-spheres. This would be doubly powerful as a Santa day 1 gift because it narrows down the identity of Santa, creating a few links that can help start a town core, and because Fester probably never gives T-spheres night 1

People's treatment of Mac continued

Nanook 2

Nanook 1 said close to nothing about Mac. He called him 50/50. Nanook 1 officially acknowledged. :goofp:

Well I wasn’t town in any of those games, and I’m the best and and most open minded civilian player on the site, objectively and officially speaking. I accept your proposal of lynching a low poster as a viable strategy for this game moving forward. :signofthecross emoji:

I really really really really dislike his flip flop on how he read me and Nutella. He declared me a wolf and Nutella one we should follow after the two of us started battling. Then like 12 hours later, I was town and Nutella was scum because I read her perfectly.

His argument for Nutella being scum exists in its entirety at the time he expressed a strong townread on her. His read change does not come from a town perspective. It comes from a scum perspective mimicking townplay, ie trusting Jack's Nutella read.
I was guessing at turnip’s reason, not endorsing it if I’m right. Obviously I think mac is mafia, my vote is on him.
NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: Sun Mar 01, 2020 3:45 am The other thing that makes me feel OK about a mac TK is that we have actual battle lines over it, people are invested on both sides, as opposed to radishes where we have a few people invested in killing him and everyone else seemingly kind of shrugging and going “eh, idk, maybe?”

And I tend to think that in a game like this a polarized TK is more likely to lead to scum than one where the strongest defense against it amounts to a half hearted “idk he’s kinda null.”

I promise I am not though. If you vote someone else you will be happy at the end of the game that you ignored your intuition in favour of arbitrarily trusting me for no apparent reason.

I agree with the assessments that gman and sabie look like radish teammates. Sprit's vote was also quiiiiite bad but I town read him otherwise so more hesitant to make a hard and fast judgment there.

I have some thoughts, but I think it's an interesting question.

We've had two GOAT lynches, and the game is still over 36 % scum. That is hilarious and sad. This is what I mean when I say big multiball games should have a multilynch option.

I'm just going off mac's history of fighting for his life as town. He fights as wolf too sure, but in this case I'd buy that he is tired of how the game has been going for him and figures his best chance at a win is sacrificing himself and letting his teammates go on. (and maybe he figures if he resigns to being lynched we're less likely to figure out who those might be -- though ofc some people are still defending him, but that doesn't make them his teammates)
Or he’s town sick of this shit. It’s NAI 🤷‍♀️

@sig why did you think Mac was the kill target? I understand the idea that the town wouldn't protect Mac so he's scum if he was shot but why do you think he was shot?
Not impossible, just unlikely. She could also be 3p

*i don’t remember if this is the correct role but I’m too lazy to check. You’re all smart enough to know what I’m saying, hopefully.

No matter how successful anyone is, it means just about nothing.

Well I wasn’t town in any of those games, and I’m the best and and most open minded civilian player on the site, objectively and officially speaking. I accept your proposal of lynching a low poster as a viable strategy for this game moving forward. :signofthecross emoji:

I really really really really dislike his flip flop on how he read me and Nutella. He declared me a wolf and Nutella one we should follow after the two of us started battling. Then like 12 hours later, I was town and Nutella was scum because I read her perfectly.

His argument for Nutella being scum exists in its entirety at the time he expressed a strong townread on her. His read change does not come from a town perspective. It comes from a scum perspective mimicking townplay, ie trusting Jack's Nutella read.
I was guessing at turnip’s reason, not endorsing it if I’m right. Obviously I think mac is mafia, my vote is on him.
NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: Sun Mar 01, 2020 3:45 am The other thing that makes me feel OK about a mac TK is that we have actual battle lines over it, people are invested on both sides, as opposed to radishes where we have a few people invested in killing him and everyone else seemingly kind of shrugging and going “eh, idk, maybe?”

And I tend to think that in a game like this a polarized TK is more likely to lead to scum than one where the strongest defense against it amounts to a half hearted “idk he’s kinda null.”

I promise I am not though. If you vote someone else you will be happy at the end of the game that you ignored your intuition in favour of arbitrarily trusting me for no apparent reason.

I dunno, it seems like the only thing that's likely to happen after I get mislynched is that you mislynch Turnip Head for TMI or some dumb shit.

After that eod i am thinking I may have been wrong about mac and I have liked his engagement/analysis since. He could still be on the non radishes team and be genuinely hunting,but with how the votes stayed in him like that it seems unlikely.

I agree with the assessments that gman and sabie look like radish teammates. Sprit's vote was also quiiiiite bad but I town read him otherwise so more hesitant to make a hard and fast judgment there.

I have some thoughts, but I think it's an interesting question.

We've had two GOAT lynches, and the game is still over 36 % scum. That is hilarious and sad. This is what I mean when I say big multiball games should have a multilynch option.

I'm just going off mac's history of fighting for his life as town. He fights as wolf too sure, but in this case I'd buy that he is tired of how the game has been going for him and figures his best chance at a win is sacrificing himself and letting his teammates go on. (and maybe he figures if he resigns to being lynched we're less likely to figure out who those might be -- though ofc some people are still defending him, but that doesn't make them his teammates)
Or he’s town sick of this shit. It’s NAI 🤷‍♀️

@sig why did you think Mac was the kill target? I understand the idea that the town wouldn't protect Mac so he's scum if he was shot but why do you think he was shot?
Not impossible, just unlikely. She could also be 3p

Like even if he flips a role that doesn’t have NK protection the people that think sig slipped are just going to say “oh well Mac just got docced and they thought he was the Master*!”

Imo one of their alignments doesn’t say anything more about the other than most randomly selected pairs.

Just getting these quotes down before I lose the post. I am doing lab work and will assess in a bit.

There's an argument here for Nanook being compatible -- that he consistently suspected Mac and welcomed a Mac lynch while favoring a pursuit of the other team instead. It's an argument that kind of bores me, particularly given that he did end up voting Mac on Day 3. I think his opposition to Mac looks genuine for the most part. It isn't clear why he did choose to place the Mac vote in the end instead of sig or whoever else, so [mention]NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME[/mention] can speak to that. My intuition tells me no here.

I... disagree?

Did you read my post?
The long one? I think we’re in agreement — Sig does not have complete information of everything he’s said? There’s no reason to try to build a world where somehow he knows everything.
Ah, I see. You're saying Sig is making assumptions in those posts regardless of what role he has.
I also posted a scenario this morning where sig is making assumptions. It's not the same as speed's theory and maybe it's farfetched but take a look at it.

S~V~S wrote: Tue Feb 25, 2020 5:48 pm Regarding strong reads, I think civs need to be hyper aggressive this game becasue of this:
Hosts with the most said:


Ghosts

When a player dies, their ghost remains in the thread for three more phases. A ghost may post on-topic thrice-twice-once, in successive phases, in dead-red text. A ghost can claim its Win Condition.

Have you ever had that moment in a game, right after you died, when suddenly, it was all clear. Yeah, we all have. The baddies are gonna have to try harder to be blendy this game becasue of this, not be over aggressive, becasue it's gonna be harder for them to blow off a mislynch with the victim still in the thread. It's gonna be harder for them to just NK people who get up in their grilles if the victim is still in the thread.

I am always a pretty aggressive civ, but I tend to try to hold reads close to the vest becasue I don't want to paint targets on civs or give a baddie the heads up that they are under suspicion; sometimes I like to watch and draw them out, to see if they slip. But I think this is the game for full reads.

I want to see how the Zero poll plays out. Right now I like Nanook, I like sig, I like Nutella. I don't dislike Jules, TH, Jay, or Ted. I am not feeling Chuck so much or Sloonei. Sloonei getting all aggressive with sig rubs me the wrong way, becasue this is something I seem to recall seeing Sloonei doing fairly often, getting in sigs face. It's an easy stance for Sloonei to fall into. My thoughts on Chuck are wrapped up in his poll vote

Most everyone else is gray for me, or someone I am actively waffling about like Jack or G Man. I know G Man is hiding from G Woman, which I know was always a thing with him, but what little he wrote, meh. So him and Jack aren't really grey, but I could go either way. Some of the gray people, like Epi, Mac, and Tranq, are people I like to sort early, but it's Zero, so :shrug:

I don't think I played with Michelle before; I did play with Dyslexicon, but not enough to have a basis of comparison.

I also see that Dom, Colin, Dragomir and Sabie have not checked in yet.
S~V~S wrote: Fri Feb 28, 2020 6:54 am I think we would have learned more from today if we had had a normal lynch, that went to the end. So I think vote analysis is of less value than it may have been.

We had 18 votes cast out of 24 player (8 are baddies). So 6 had not even voted yet. I think it would be a conservative estimate to say, let's say 3, half of the not yet voters, could have been bad. That could leave only 5 mixed in in the people who already voted.

One of the non voters was also Dragomir, who has not posted at all.

When I am bad, I tend to try to make a big case and a big splash early to distract from lurking teammates, but I am an outlier. Most people don't do this. Of the people making big splashy cases, I found Mac the most suspish. He is also an outlier in general, and I saw him do something like it when he was bad when I hosted the Champs game with TH several years ago; make a big splashy play. Turnip Head,do you recall this? It was end game, though, so not exactly the same, I was thinking more of his thread play.

When I think back to my baddie games (and it's been a while, the last game I played I was civ), what I recall seeing the most on Day One in games with multiple baddie groups was lots of tangent voting unless you were like 99% sure one of the forming wagons was an opposing baddie. I tend to look hardest at tangent voters on Day One, people who were the only vote for a person. It's an easy way to skirt responsibility and have to answer for your vote if a civ is lynched, to be involved without actually being involved.

The singleton voters were TSP, sprityo, Radishes (lol @ whoever called him "Badishes") and sig. Of those four, sig had been making the case for Nanook pretty consistently, and was actively trying to form a wagon. The other three did not look much like they were trying to form wagons.

Of the three, TSP and sprit also voted for "Vanilla" in the Zero poll, and I am positive there were poll rewards. I think it is probable that some folks may have had info about what might benefit them. As an aside, it is notable that the Vanilla voters, with the exception of G Man, probably did not have much if any experience with Zero polls like this.

So I am going to focus on reading those 2 people, and also add in G Man, a Vanilla Voter, who was also a non voter. I think Badishes has enough people looking at him :hug:

Again, this is all less valid than it may have been had the poll gone to the end, they may have been placeholder votes, I may be silly fixating on the zero poll, etc. While I get Nanooks "use it or lose it" approach, I wish he had waited until Day Two (although he quite possibly would have taken me, given his "kill SVS with fire" remark, lol) so meh.

Bad is kind of a default position (see: Dragomir) for "no opinion" I should have an opinion by now.

Thanks, Jules. I tend to have better comprehension reading thread exchanges than ISOs in general, I find I miss less nuance that way, but I will ISO them as well. Colin was a red read for me, but only as a default since I did not remember much of what he had said, and Mac was a red as well since he had not had anything to say after nutella flipped non-baddie, and his whole thing there reminded me of bad Mac (although I tend to baddie read him in general, so my opinion is not always the most valuable there), so they were both on my list.

Also, if there is anything I have to address, let me know.

Also, can anyone give me their take on why sprit voted for Nanook? Out of all the votes I see up there, that is the one that surprises me the most.

Would be my guess anyways
I really really really really dislike his flip flop on how he read me and Nutella. He declared me a wolf and Nutella one we should follow after the two of us started battling. Then like 12 hours later, I was town and Nutella was scum because I read her perfectly.

His argument for Nutella being scum exists in its entirety at the time he expressed a strong townread on her. His read change does not come from a town perspective. It comes from a scum perspective mimicking townplay, ie trusting Jack's Nutella read.
Why would baddie Mac express a strong townread on nutella and then flip flop just as soon? Why would a bad guy do that? It's a townie maneuever, just like your exact opposite flip flop was (I assume) townie.
I like this post, it makes sense to me. I had not seen it this way, I missed his "Nutella is town" posts.

Did you like even read his posts tho. He's wrong and he even said he might be at first, then he doubled down.

I'm not a wolf. Use your own brain, not Jack's.
So he had a little doubt at first as is normal and then soul read you the way that he always does when he's right about you... noted.
This looks very much like a civ minded progression, it looks honest and real, not contrived and set up.

- I feel Colin is more likely town than scum for his righteousness. "Lynch me and I'll laugh at you". Annoying attitude, but probably likelier town than scum.

- I don't feel like lynching Mac is a good idea. I don't know. I kind of buy his defense, and i also feel like how he's giving out reads and thoughts rapidly, but then at the same time warns against "you should probably not listen to these" is more town. It's town doubt that he doesn't want to be fully responsible for those reads. That's my feeling.

- I'm honestly getting cold feet on Radish, but that is just because it would suck so much if he's town here.

- I can't follow the convo between Juliets and Sloonei at all.
I agree with you wholeheartedly re Mac, and also do not feel Badishes as much as I did. I could get behind a sprit or G Man lynch, but Don't want to leave the biggest counterwagon to Mac, since I don't feel Badishes as much but I still don't feel he's in the green, either.

If you can fit the answers to those questions into the Oompa Loompa format I would be grateful. I'm from the old school that says it's bad form to vote for someone who's cursed or silenced but I'm having doubts about this being a real curse.
It means he automatically distrusts me and Dom, this is not news to me and I doubt to Dom, either, or anyone who has played with G and I since BSG.

I think I have made enough posts for him to have moved past autodistrust, but whatevs.

As I said up there, I would consider forming either a sprit or G Man counter wagon, I really don't want to lynch Mac, and I have better reasons in my mind to distrust G Man and sprit than Badishes (I think I will always call him Badishes now, lol, he's gonna hate me).

linki tedxtr but I mentioned TH, not sure about why they would/would not remove me from a list though.

linki Dyslexicon I saw that post earlier. I am missing the nuance of that post. I don't think a person has to be a specific role on a team for a different teammate to act on their behalf. If this is not the point, can you spell it out for me?

Wait. I disagree that Mac is spewed as not the silencer/not on the silencing team. But even if he was, as you argue, that does not spew him as not scum, it just spews him as not on that team. Unless you are on the other team. :smoky: :smoky: :smoky:

Dizzy, I am having trouble following what you guys are saying. I need to go back and read ted's whole post so I understand what he's referencing.
This, Iam not understanding what I am being asked :blush:

sig thinks Saitama silenced him, and he thinks Mac is Saitama. I think any number of people might silence sig, this is also a role, and not on the same team as Saitama:

That is not the point. I'll explain:
Ted says the Mac spewed himself as not a member of the silencing-team, ergo ONE of the mafia teams.
He then concludes this spews Mac as not scum.
But that is not a conclusion you can draw. Even if Ted is right, that just means Mac is not on THAT mafia team. There's still another team. I wonder if this is a slip of mind that Ted is on the other team himself.

Does this make sense?
Ted is basically saying: "[This] proves that Mac is not on Team A which means he's not scum."
And I say: :smoky: :smoky: :smoky:

I'm a bit wary of these slips, cause sometimes it's just bad wording. But still, it may be something.
Thank you, now I understand. Teds syntax is not unlike mine, he writes like he's talking. I tend not to read too far into things like that becasue I know it gets me in trouble at times. I have seen a lot of posts from a lot of people in this game that sound like they are skewed to the one team perspective. That analysis of what he said strikes me a little tinfoil, I don't think civvies worry about precision wording as much as baddies, BUT I think you know him better than I do, this is the first time I have seen him. It he normally a precise individual?

Based on my own thread read of Mac, I feel his Nutella push was a natural progression, and the main reason I had suspicion of him was that nutella push.

Basically saitama has a one time janitor (hides flip) which was clearly used on dizzy (otherwise default is roles flip, i know yours not used to that). The theory is mac is saitama and used his one time ability bc he is in danger of being lynched. And it just adds to sig's pre-existing theory that Mac one-posted him.
Thank you. But not sure how this fingers Mac specifically but at least I don't feel like you all are speaking a foreign language now.

Linki Jules, thank you also. It was like being surrounded by people speaking Estonian lol

If you had to quantify it what percent would you say Mac is probably civ?
I am not sure what you are asking me. There are only a few people that I think are more than (random percentage) 65% likely to be civ, and Mac isn't one of them.

But based on my reread of his Day One, I read his posts as a natural progression when taken in context. I have no idea why anyone whould try to NK him Night One, so I think the theory positing a specific sequence of events which make Mac bad is faulty for that reason. It is possible, but I don't find it likely.

So I personally am unlikley to vote for him today.

I wanted to ask you a question too. When I asked Badishes about "baddie", both you and Nanook thought I was implying a slip on Radishes part.

Why did you go after Nanook so hard, but not Radishes?

Lynch them instead.
Mac has a very limited range of possibilities and if we lynch him on autopilot and we’re wrong we risk having no leads on what will soon be a fully powered scum team.
And you think this person is me? Pray tell why.
You’re my stall vote before I get my computer out to do the work. I’m trying to figure out why I read you as town you on day 1. Realistically, you’re fifth suspect on the list but you’re first suspect for being on the team we need to kill someone on.

Can you explain the “natural progression” you saw? Because my D1 Mac read is the opposite. He flipped his reads on Nutella and me with seemingly no progression at all.
This is the post where I discussed my view on Macs nutella suspicion. You may or may not value it, though, as it starts based on a thought TH brought up, and I know you suspect him. I spoilered it, it's a big post.

Re G-Man and the manipulation, duh. Of course manipulation is the name of the game, but that post was hard and heavy, and I don't know that I see it coming from G Man, becasue he knows me well enough to know that I would possibly be "reality" upset by it. G Man is like Golden, in that some things are not in his personal ethical playbook. So I will not activbely work against his lynch, cause otherwise he looks bad as all fuck, but I won't be voting for him.

Re Discord, maybe I will try it again. I never really liked since since I have a tad bit of social anxiety, and the times I went it was SO MANY people, and many of them were using names I did not know them by, so they felt like strangers, etc.

His argument for Nutella being scum exists in its entirety at the time he expressed a strong townread on her. His read change does not come from a town perspective. It comes from a scum perspective mimicking townplay, ie trusting Jack's Nutella read.
Why would baddie Mac express a strong townread on nutella and then flip flop just as soon? Why would a bad guy do that? It's a townie maneuever, just like your exact opposite flip flop was (I assume) townie.
I like this post, it makes sense to me. I had not seen it this way, I missed his "Nutella is town" posts.

Did you like even read his posts tho. He's wrong and he even said he might be at first, then he doubled down.

I'm not a wolf. Use your own brain, not Jack's.
So he had a little doubt at first as is normal and then soul read you the way that he always does when he's right about you... noted.
This looks very much like a civ minded progression, it looks honest and real, not contrived and set up.

I'm metagaming a bit here, I find it very unlikely that Nanook came back bad because I think a bad team would have recruited a replacement if the null role was bad between Monday when the roles went out and Friday when Nanook came in. I think his "OMG Nanook voted for Colin" outrage was fauxrage. I hated that vote tbh.

Did you read Dizzy's last ghost post? They made the point that since the kill does get passed along, the ideal situation would be to identify the fourth member of anti monitor, keep them alive and blocked/neutralized, while we get the other team. Makes sense right?
Yes, it does actually. That would perform the same basic function as eliminating them, since you could hunt for just one set of baddies, and the Masters would only be able to suspect civvies, which would make it harder to be them.

My point, though, was from the perspective of making the game easier to solve, having a one baddie team would be easier to solve, especially for the people who are mostly used to that kind of game. So a sig lynch ismore logical than a Mac lynch.

G Man moved his vote

I am finding this one a bit difficult to follow. S~V~S's earliest takes on Mac were negative, and she provided reasons that strike me as vague. She made a meta connection to a previous GOC in which Mac "made a big splash" as a bad guy, and she felt he was doing the same here. I'm not sure what that means, or if it can be stated that a civilian Mac doesn't make "big splashes" too. She expanded her suspicion when she provided her big GTH reads post by referencing Mac's treatment of nutella. Then, when Turnip Head came in and provided a counter-argument, she accepted it with wide open arms and never looked back. She provided a quick review of Mac herself and determined that his progression on nutella looked natural -- I cannot discern why it's natural, or why she felt it was unnatural previously. She stood in Mac's corner on Days 2 and 3, both vocally and in the poll, and did not seem interested in the arguments presented against him. If there's an overt defender of Mac on his team, S~V~S looks like a viable candidate.

I promise I am not though. If you vote someone else you will be happy at the end of the game that you ignored your intuition in favour of arbitrarily trusting me for no apparent reason.

After that eod i am thinking I may have been wrong about mac and I have liked his engagement/analysis since. He could still be on the non radishes team and be genuinely hunting,but with how the votes stayed in him like that it seems unlikely.

I agree with the assessments that gman and sabie look like radish teammates. Sprit's vote was also quiiiiite bad but I town read him otherwise so more hesitant to make a hard and fast judgment there.

I have some thoughts, but I think it's an interesting question.

We've had two GOAT lynches, and the game is still over 36 % scum. That is hilarious and sad. This is what I mean when I say big multiball games should have a multilynch option.
Radishes team first, then we worry about Mac’s team ;)

I'm just going off mac's history of fighting for his life as town. He fights as wolf too sure, but in this case I'd buy that he is tired of how the game has been going for him and figures his best chance at a win is sacrificing himself and letting his teammates go on. (and maybe he figures if he resigns to being lynched we're less likely to figure out who those might be -- though ofc some people are still defending him, but that doesn't make them his teammates)
Or he’s town sick of this shit. It’s NAI 🤷‍♀️

@sig why did you think Mac was the kill target? I understand the idea that the town wouldn't protect Mac so he's scum if he was shot but why do you think he was shot?
Not impossible, just unlikely. She could also be 3p

Like even if he flips a role that doesn’t have NK protection the people that think sig slipped are just going to say “oh well Mac just got docced and they thought he was the Master*!”

Imo one of their alignments doesn’t say anything more about the other than most randomly selected pairs.

NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: Wed Mar 04, 2020 8:57 pm Calling a Mac vote obviously

Just getting these quotes down before I lose the post. I am doing lab work and will assess in a bit.

There's an argument here for Nanook being compatible -- that he consistently suspected Mac and welcomed a Mac lynch while favoring a pursuit of the other team instead. It's an argument that kind of bores me, particularly given that he did end up voting Mac on Day 3. I think his opposition to Mac looks genuine for the most part. It isn't clear why he did choose to place the Mac vote in the end instead of sig or whoever else, so @NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME can speak to that. My intuition tells me no here.

Compatibility: Minor
It is clear—I thought/think that sig is decent chance to be lassie.

Ok thank you.

@sig it's true that I profile likely so I can see why you'd think that. Even if you weren't suspecting me I would probably silence you if I had that role because it feels like tradition for me to use irritating roles on you. But unfortunately your logic beyond it being on point for meta doesn't hold up. I didn't read a single post during the night. I didn't even know you were suspecting me during the previous phase until I just read your post when Sloonei linked it, or at least I don't remember it. And my content/tone isn't a scum indicative thing for me.

Be mindful of the fact that I think there are quite a few people who would silence you night 1 who aren't me also. I'm sorry but you're barking up the wrong tree. I think you should probably apply the same logic when considering others though.
Earlier I pointed out that Radishes responded to a case in a similar manner to this. "I see why you think that, but let me rearrange some words for ya!"
Mac, why did you choose to address sig from the perspective of whether or not you could/would have silenced him today? Why do you think sig was targeted by that role? And who do you think we should lynch today?

Well I wasn’t town in any of those games, and I’m the best and and most open minded civilian player on the site, objectively and officially speaking. I accept your proposal of lynching a low poster as a viable strategy for this game moving forward. :signofthecross emoji:

Now whether or not it’s the best strategy at any given moment is a different story. I still think we have a good amount of legitimately suspicious content in this thread.

If I squint at that whole exchange, the most pro-town argument for Mac that I can come up with is that it indicates he’s operating in a mindset that suggests an awareness of the two mafia teams as competing factions that can be weighed and used against each other. I could buy that in a vacuum.

Your turn.

Sloonei wrote: Sun Mar 01, 2020 3:40 am Even in death, nutella tunnels me.

I moved my vote off of Mac because it’s early in the day and I want to use my vote to emphasize discussion. I made this same point when I voted for juliets. I make this same point in most games that I play. A vote on Mac at this stage just maintains the status quo. He’s a candidate to be lynched and I don’t object to that. I’d like him to do more things so I can have a clearer sense of where his head’s at in this game. But I don’t need my vote to be on him to get that to happen right now. G-man is another candidate who’s not getting as much attention, so I put my vote on him instead. I am aware of the deadline and will cast a meaningful vote when that is approaching.

I’ve made a version of this post a hundred times before.

Thank you for your thoughts, ghostella.

I can’t see anything but town Jack in this game. There was a burst of emotion (not a deliberate appeal to emotion) on Day 1 that I thought projected a level of agitation that would not have been reached if he was bad.

This whole comment chain. Your initial post was some weird rant about Big Fish with a conspicuous nod to Drago, who you’re then careful to say you don’t want to lynch. What is the purpose of this? What function does it serve in the game of mafia?

Why do these two posts exist?
What the fuck are you talking about?
This whole comment chain. Your initial post was some weird rant about Big Fish with a conspicuous nod to Drago, who you’re then careful to say you don’t want to lynch. What is the purpose of this? What function does it serve in the game of mafia?
So I like to make people laugh, so sometimes I make posts that are designed to make people laugh. Sometimes when I make posts like that I like to layer it with some game relevant content. Because I was ISOing Dragomir and realised he's done nothing and the idea of ya boy getting lynched over Dragonothere is some bullshit.

But yeah the primary reason is because humour you fucking accountant ass motherfucker.
Mafia is not a joke, MacDougall.

Like I was expecting him or anyone to pick that up and do something with it, I thought it be interesting but now it’s past. Maybe Drago just accepted it and is going to operate in this game with the assumption that sprit is town.

Sloonei wrote: Sun Mar 01, 2020 4:31 am Also @mac some people have alluded to your treatment of Jack/nutella on Day 1 as opportunistic or somehow suspicious. Jay and sig mentioned it, I think. Maybe nanook too? Addressing your mindset there might help.

I never thought you were cursed, but when the assumption went around, you didn't correct it earlier, did you?

Self imposed posting restrictions are a great way for a baddie to hide out, and your content is slim. I will be here on and off all day, give me some of those sweet accountant analyses, G Man.

I want you to make me believe you, you know I do.
Self-imposed restrictions are a good way to hide IF the player is hiding behind the restriction. Do we think that G-man is doing that here?

I also acknowledge that you made a post about Mac’s Day 1. I will take a closer look at that soon.

I can’t, and for once I feel like I have a tangible suspicion against him as well: his “joke” about Dragomir that we had a short spat over. It was bizarre and of of nowhere, and after sleeping on it I feel like it was an attempt to slide the conversation back to a previous discussion (lynching a low poster, which both nanook and I had expressed tentative support for a little while earlier) without directly endorsing it or making it too obvious what he was doing. It looked like an awkward attempt at a transition disguised as a joke. If he genuinely wanted us to look at a low poster, he just needed to say so.

what TSP is doing is not mathematics. : (
It is. It’s just the kind of math townies don’t like to listen to, along with logic like “even if I am scum....”

Townies generally want to vote for the player they suspect the most, which is Sig, not the player who is most likely to flip mafia, which is Mac.

It doesn’t really matter because we’re probably lynching them both and they’re probably both flipping mafia but

Tony’s logic is sound.

Lynch Sig and he flips wolf -> lynch Mac
Lynch Sig and he flips town -> lynch Mac
Lynch Mac and he flips bulletproof wolf -> lynch Sig
Lynch Mac and he flips town -> a decent chunk of the Sig case falls away -> maybe don’t lynch Sig.

Logically, mathematically, that makes Mac the best lynch.

Realistically, people suspect Sig the most and Sig will be lynched today. That’s of course fine because there’s good reason for that suspicion. We just need to follow up on Mac tomorrow, especially because he’ll have three teammates running interference and I’m betting we’ll see some new cases starting up on townies tomorrow.
Sig and mac are not in any way dependent on each other for me. I want to lynch sig because he looks very bad in relation to the two dead mafia. I lean negative on Mac for a few entirely self-contained things.

The primary reasons for reading Sig as scum are by virtue of knowing I am scum, which I am not and through interactions with dead scum, which I agree look bad but I think Jack and a few others look bad by this measure too.

Jack is revelling in this dichotomy and has somehow skated by again. I think he's bad and fostering this false dichotomy. If Sig is not Jack's partner then he is not Mafia, and I don't think Jack would be playing this way if his partner was up for lynch.

Sig is right about how it's strange that people who have tunneled me are now voting him. It reminds me of another game I played where the Mafia kept the primary mislynch bait alive and kept knocking off other civilians. I think that lynching Sig is being led by the other scum faction.
I’ll grant you that Jack might look bad in relation to Radishes/sabie. I haven’t looked closely at him, but I have reason to be wary of him. I don’t know if I’d say he looks worse than sig, and even if he does we’d still have one more person on that team. Who else looks worse than sig?

I didnt say worse though think Sprityo (who I somehow forgot in the last post) looks bad by that measure. Dom and Nanook do too.
I basically forgot sprityo was even playing this tame. What has he done?

There are numerous points here where I feel like I could be reading my own posts. I have zero difficulty following the progression of Sloonei's mindset throughout this helping of quotes, because he followed a progression much like my own. Once he started to pay Mac attention, he gave Mac grief and did not let up from his trademark Sloonei pestering. I don't think this looks like "theater" as you nerds are wont to call it; it looks like standard-issue Sloonei developing a read the way he always does. I am not bothered by his voting pattern. He never made any meaningful motion to keep Mac alive apart from finding the alternative wagons a bit worse on Days 2 and 3. I don't think he's Mac's teammate.

I am not going to get around to Jack in this exercise, but I do have one conclusive thought:

Mac hopping on Jack for a piggy-back ride during the nutella kerfuffle of Day 1 was pure horseshit situated to leave the responsibility for whatever happened on Jack's lap. Doubtful teammates.

I got weird vibes from Ted D1, and then he appeared reluctant to address Dizzy's 'scumslip' on him. It wasn't the slip itself that bothered me, but his forced nonchalance about it? Something like that. Lol at her flipping votes, though. :p

The Mac read is nothing special. I agree with what Jay said about his Dom post, and a few other sentiments expressed in the past two pages.

Jack was sure Nutella was scum and said so loudly.

Mac said Nutella was town and Jack was scum with basically no explanation.

Then, after nothing changed between Jack and Nutella, Mac adopted the idea that Jack is always right about Nutella and therefore she is bad and if she’s not, whatever. An excuse to pretend that makes Jack scum.

The not tiny part would be an understandable opinion to have if he started with it or he developed it. That didn’t happen. That opinion appears to have spontaneously generated. More likely, Mac saw a way to shade two players who had each accumulated 6ish votes at some point during the day, hoping for a one two lynch and lynch of players not on his team.

It’s worse than no progression. There’s agenda in it.
Sounds pretty non-subtle as flip-flops go. Do you think scum mac would be subtle or no?

You're talking about even if Mac is scum, right?
Yes. Multiball.
Oh, right, Multiball.

And here I almost sorta agree with you.

A great deal of people. The constant focus on myself (and now Sig) is very much allowing for a game environment where people who are absolutely failing in their basic civilian duty, or not living up to their usual standards are receiving little to no pressure. I have reservations about all the below;

Epignosis - Does not appear to be earnestly attempting to achieve a civilian wincon.
ColinIsCool - Only appears to be trying when there is pressure on him.
Michelle - Does not match her meta. Hasn't helped the civ cause really at all.
speedchuck - Does not appear to be the same speedchuck that I am used to seeing.
sprityo - Appears to be totally laying low outside of intermittently FPS reading me scum.
Tranq - Has literally made 5 posts or something.
Mac can you talk about speedchuck? Is it that he isn't posting frequently or something else/combination of things?
I think the lack of speedchuck's content is a large part of it. I am used to him being a more prominent member of the town. I think that with players like speedchuck sometimes basic is the best way to read them. If he is not living up to the normal standards of contribution then it's probably because he has a non town agenda/is putting a lot of his content elsewhere (ie. scum chat).
Have you ever been in scumchat with me?

How chatty am I in scumchat, Mac?

linki: my 'extra content' is going into audio editing, yeah. That's not an excuse, so feel free to suspect me and put attention my way. But it's also an unfortunate truth to work around. Binding freelance contracts are more pressing than mafia.

what TSP is doing is not mathematics. : (
It is. It’s just the kind of math townies don’t like to listen to, along with logic like “even if I am scum....”

Townies generally want to vote for the player they suspect the most, which is Sig, not the player who is most likely to flip mafia, which is Mac.

It doesn’t really matter because we’re probably lynching them both and they’re probably both flipping mafia but

Tony’s logic is sound.

Lynch Sig and he flips wolf -> lynch Mac
Lynch Sig and he flips town -> lynch Mac
Lynch Mac and he flips bulletproof wolf -> lynch Sig
Lynch Mac and he flips town -> a decent chunk of the Sig case falls away -> maybe don’t lynch Sig.

Logically, mathematically, that makes Mac the best lynch.

Realistically, people suspect Sig the most and Sig will be lynched today. That’s of course fine because there’s good reason for that suspicion. We just need to follow up on Mac tomorrow, especially because he’ll have three teammates running interference and I’m betting we’ll see some new cases starting up on townies tomorrow.
I thought the Sig case was more predicated on his knowledge of the nightkill, not of the alignment he supposed for Mac. That would make Sig's slip irrelevant to Mac's alignment, if his team just got it wrong?

Or did I miss case development overnight?
speedchuck wrote: Wed Mar 04, 2020 11:44 am
Jackofhearts2005 wrote: Wed Mar 04, 2020 11:41 am His knowledge of the nightkill is “I think the mafia shot Mac and he’s the bulletproof guy in the Master mafia.”

So if we’re to read “I think” as “I know” then the chances of Mac also being scum skyrockets.
But there's only one part of that he CAN know, right? Surely there are town roles that can stop a kill?

...

But nobody would have protected Mac. Oh. Lol.

Yeah I could lynch Mac first. [VOTE: Mac] aubergine

You never responded to my addressing your accusation earlier.

Am I active in scumchat, Mac?

The meat of this stuff is Day 3, starting with the post I highlighted (just as a marker). speed went back and forth between Mac and sig. I believe he voted each of them twice; he ended on sig and didn't appear to call the vote. I note that his willingness to wield those votes was based primarily upon the comparative "value" or validity of lynching either Mac or sig first relative to the other, with less emphasis upon what made them suspicious -- particularly with Mac. That's not my favorite thing. I am not prepared to dissociate them.

Fwiw I am 99% sure Sig is really mafia but his reaction means he's not the anti monitor so whoever else was responsible for saving him is the likely anti monitor imo. Daddy Nanook fwiw.

JaggedJimmyJay you said that I was nominated for mvp for a reason. Now I totally could’ve nominated myself but I didn’t (so thank you to whoever did that) but your statement for that was hollow in that I play mafia my way and that’s how I get results. Same as everyone. So if you want MVP material you’re just gonna have to wait for it because it’ll come with time.

What’d Mac say in Inception to the scum team? “Sprityo is a crucial mislynch” although I like to think of myself more like a snowball

Enough about me though-

I don’t care about this nanook sig radishes kerfuffle that happened between pages 6 and 10 roughly, I’m gonna go out on a limb and say jack is mafia this game. Just pure gut. I have no reason other than I think it.

Also Dom is here, huzzah! I enjoyed playing with Dom in Inception and can’t wait for another game with him. Same to Dizzy, I love their zanyness.

Jay is also 100% town. Don’t ask me why

That’s my lukewarm takes, Jack bad, jay good

You his teammate? Lmao you know better than this.

I was just thinking you're probably bad anyway. Then this. C'mon man
You have literally been in scum teams with me where you have been immediately caught by Jack and lamented profoundly how well he reads you. So your defense here is hilariously bad.

NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: Sun Mar 01, 2020 3:45 am The other thing that makes me feel OK about a mac TK is that we have actual battle lines over it, people are invested on both sides, as opposed to radishes where we have a few people invested in killing him and everyone else seemingly kind of shrugging and going “eh, idk, maybe?”

And I tend to think that in a game like this a polarized TK is more likely to lead to scum than one where the strongest defense against it amounts to a half hearted “idk he’s kinda null.”
I dunno, it seems like the only thing that's likely to happen after I get mislynched is that you mislynch Turnip Head for TMI or some dumb shit.
Idk if I’d ever go turnip head over like half the roster tbh

sprityo, you're a goofy lad. After a lengthy exchange of banter on the first day, sprityo turned against Mac abruptly and has not left that posture. He voted for Mac Days 2 and 3. There's no explanation that I see, so I can only shrug. Some part of me wonders about this being deliberate WIFOM. On balance I doubt he's a teammate.
