Colin and GMan talked about it today in chat- you all made some batshit accusations that we just didn’t understand, but in the end, the gut won out even if the mind didn’t piece it together logically

Aside from the fact that I was bad as shit, I was wholly honest when I said things. It’s all about playing from the civ perspective
You weren't playing from a town perspective though, never mind the coffee, and I did catch on to that. Truth is, I'm a real coward. I'd rather lose by someone else's hand than fight for what I believe in. It's my worst trait as town. I shouldn't have let you go. But I did. And you played well and was slippery enough to sneak away.^^
The loss was because of me. All I had to do was vote Scotty and the votes would have been there. I knew that.

The one time in her life that nutella has ever sounded genuine to me was the one time I heavily defended her and she was on the bad team.

I am about 1 for 14 batting against nutella.

Semantics. Inferential evidence if you prefer.
Can you summarize what evidence is against him?
Fucking hell man, I have 3 minutes

He made a bunch of noise about suspecting Colin from Days 1-4, but did nothing to promote his lynch until that 4th day. Before that he favored "teammates of Colin" like Elohcin, a connection he drew while both were still unlynched and never exposed.
He could have voted Colin without worries other than Colin being exposed. That isn't like losing a number.

He didn't get the dizzy thing, he didn't understand gladys, and most of all he kept saying he suspected colin for several days while letting town lynches take precedence.

If you don't know what I am talking about and haven't gotten there, I can point to posts.
It's either genuine, or he had to be playing stupid, which means his addressing Marmot as he did was doubling down on that ploy, which is overselling things far too much.
I'm not sure whether you mean overselling as in unlikely to be intentional or overselling as in exaggerated and fake.

You and marmot chickened out yesterday on switching to Scotty. We can't let him slide past another lynch.
Wording like this bothers me. "We can't let him slide past another?"

Are you for real? I was bashing my head thinking BOTH looked terrible. I was not focusing on defending one over the other, I was focused on making up my own mind about the issue, trying to make the right decision. I thought I had made the right decision (though the lynch was wrong) after the fact for Marmot's fucking clap post and Colin saying he was town. You were the one actually coming up with points against Marmot and voting Marmot. That is active defense and sway in thread. I was making up my own mind because it was hell. This isn't flying at all.

It doesn’t work in a straight line. Especially at that point. If I see a clap post I don’t immediately have the full and total scope of what that means to me. I just wanted someone to tell me at that point.

This drives me crazy. If you don't want to lead the post count, then stop...posting.

People posting doesn't automatically guarantee good people win. It doesn't. What it does- and I've said this before- is burn good people out to the point that they don't want to bother.

JJJ knows this. You don't have to post a hundred times to get things going.

If you feel that carrying the thread is important, why don't you give it a try?

I'm not doing it. If it's on me every game, then we're going to lose and it will be a mafia cakewalk.
When does JJJ expect Eloh to "carry the thread?"

He says he's not doing it, and it's on him every game. Yet here he is, doing "it."

Normally, if someone would have this exchange, JJJ would ask for a "read." He didn't supply one himself.

Re: Easter Mafia [DAY 6]

I want to go through JJJ's posts. He makes a lot of them, which makes them a chore to go through.

I have nothing else to do tonight.

Charlie - Sincere appearance at face value, consistently involved, is inquisitive and seems to have discernible direction in their effort, received opportunistic vote on Day 1 from Echo

Delta - Only suspicion stated apart from Echo was for Foxtrot, who was just killed. One cannot suggest there was an effort to set up a lynch there.

Golf - Seemed sincere when protesting Alpha's comments about people complaining about game mechanics and when answering questions/accusations

Hotel - Unafraid of providing reads without concern for the challenge of the setup or having fully caught up.

Juliet - Jumped into the rap gimmick after India's proposal of using a style which is harder for the disguiser to mimick, is making an effort to answer accusations

And that's why I am baffled that two people are counting me out of the POE right now. Scotty hasn't worried about me in any serious capacity at all in this game. Dizzy's concerns have come in direct response to my own suspicions of them (I'm from another planet), and they dissipated soon thereafter. How the hell can I, or can anyone without special circumstances in their favor, be getting a free pass on Day 6 when the game will be decided on the lynch?
It's because you have a million posts. That's your special circumstances.

You can't really be serious that in LyLo, you're not even paying mind to the possibility that I should be lynched, can you?

The same goes for Dizzy two-fold. One thing I agree with Scotty about is that eliminating both nutella and I from the pool is both convenient and self-serving.
I’ve mulled it around, but jjj if you’re bad, then you bussed choutas and futzed with the Colin EoD when you didn’t have to. At this point, I’m going to throw in the towel if you’re bad. You’re working so hard to solve the game and it shows.

But for Dys to come into Day 5 with ‘jjj AND nut are civ as fuck’ is quite proclamatory. I agreed with her on you but nut’s explanation wasn’t fleshed out at all
What would he do if he was bad?

nutella wrote: Tue May 29, 2018 12:14 am Something fascinating has just happened to me. It has actually happened to me before, but now that I'm noticing it again I am rather intrigued by its effect. What just happened is that I abruptly and confidently called Charlinosis bad, had a back-and-forth with him about it and looked at his ISO to explore my suspicion, and I came out just now deciding that I town read him. Actually pretty dang strongly at the moment. I guess it's just that it took the motive of looking for suspicious things (but again needing to have not too much confirmation bias for this to work) in order for me to actually go into his ISO and realize that I saw most of it in a pretty good light. It was partially the ISO and partially his responses in the moment that convinced me to change my view.

The strange thing, however, is that the other time I am thinking of that a similar thing happened was with Elohcin in U-Pick, and she turned out to be bad. Granted, my confidence on her civ-ness didn't stay very strong; I'll just have to wait and see what happens with Charlie Brown here but I hope I am not similarly fooled. At the moment I am feeling confident enough that his ISO looks civ that I believe this is a quite different situation from what happened with Elohcin in the other game.

Perhaps I should try to do this with other players and see if it works. If I go in assuming they're bad, and I come out of an ISO unable to sustain that, I'm on my way to a foolproof PoE.

Anyway, Epi isn't bad.
I want to know how genuine people think this is.

There's nothing specific. It's just the overall impression I got after reading nineteen "ISOs" about him. I feel like I've read his life story narrated by people who sensationalize things a little too much (Hi Dizzy).

I think he looks genuine is all.
I'd like to say that I still think this. Granted, I'm also the guy who said this:

Elohcin
I have never played a game to completion with Elohcin and I don't know much about her play. I do know she's been here for a long time, and I assume she and Charlie Blackmon have nothing better to do than talk about Mafia strategies together, so I approach Elohcin with trepidation based on reputation alone. Elohcin doesn't have a lot of posts, and a lot of them mention being busy, or catching up, or what have you. It's clear Elohcin is not attempting to be a "supertown" scum. It's less clear whether she's telling the truth or if she's laying low as a strategy.

She picks a fight with JJJ Day 1. Nothing big there. Later on, we have this post:
Elohcin wrote: Mon May 21, 2018 2:55 pm votes Dizzy. Ephraim said so.
Strange, strange, strange. For a townie to make this post, it's an admission of throwing your vote away on somebody you may or may not suspect (we don't know). For a scum to make this post, it instantly attracts heat — so much heat that you sort of think, "There's no way Elohcin is scum if she's playing like that." It would be a gambit, quite frankly, for a scum Elohcin to do that. So what I am wondering is: how likely is that? I don't know the answer. Let's read on, and keep the vote in mind for this post:

Charlie Blackmon can keep your heart. I'll take a read or two instead. :grin:

Another vote without admittedly much thought. If this is a schtick, Eloh is fully committed to it and all the heat that it brings. I'll admit that that brings me more into thinking this is all genuine, but I may be more risk averse as a scum than Eloh.

What strikes me as notable re: Elo's gameplay since after D1. She said she would have voted Choutas if she was here, but never elaborated upon that even though it was asked of her. Now she's voting for wolbre even though she doesn't "remember". I think she could be exhibiting TMI.

Otherwise, I lean towards a scum Elo and town wolbre.

A town Elo and scum wolbre is possible, I guess, but I'm not feeling it. If wolbre is bad, she's almost certainly bad.
Elohcin did state earlier why she suspected wolbre, because she thought he made the nightkill. So even though she forgot, she did give a reason at least.

My opinion, Elohcin is going through some mafia burnout right now, and is being openly uninvested as a result. Do I think it's alignment indicative? Yes, I do think she's a civilian as a result.
You are a doll. You are exactly correct in everything you say here. Wolbre said he was new to mafia. He was the only one that claimed a newbie when I asked the thread. So, that led to my conclusion of thinking he carried out the first night kill
But the logic here feels exceptionally poor, and like an excuse to justify suspecting wolbre. It's as if she came into the thread and said "Hey, who killed nova?" and wolbre said "I did!"
Elohcin wrote: Thu May 24, 2018 2:28 pm I remember my other thought was that floyd might be a baddie. I am willing to move my vote off wol if the thread has a better lynch candidate, however, only if I am not in a saving-myself situation.
I am also wondering what indicators Eloh has from a person without any posts that they may be a baddie. She explains it with the nightkill choice, but I don't see what activity of members has to do with logic of the kill here.
Elohcin wrote: Fri May 25, 2018 8:34 am That lynch really stank. I wasn't around for EoD and If my life wasn't threatened, I could have been convinced to vote elsewhere.
A post like this, imo, kind of stinks. It's washing your hands of the results so you can't be responsible for the lynch of a townie but ... that's not how it happened.
Elohcin wrote: Fri May 25, 2018 8:36 am At least I can feel safe from the night kill tonight.
And maybe it's a bias, but stuff like this just makes my sensors go BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP.

Overall, Elohcin's ISO does not give me a lot of confidence in her towniness. It's very possible that she's burnt out and tired and busy, but there are also some fishy choices and arguments independent of any of that stuff that I'm not a fan of.
NOT GREAT, DUDE

Hmmm.
The change of heart here was completely unnecessary if Colin is playing on the other team. I don't love the self-congratulatory thing, but I get it.
So feel free to take whatever I say with a bit of pine tar. I don't think Scotty is bad.
