DFaraday, I think it is a bit obvious now that you are my civ buddy, and 3J and K4J are scumbuddies based on last phase. Nijuu probably role copped 3J with snapshot and was confident he was getting a baddie. Mafia likely shot Nijuu at some recent point and already deduced him to be process.
I think the game is over now. As far as I can tell our only hope is the baddies' kill failing and us winning a tie next phase.

Re: Transistor [Day 11]

I agree with JJJ's analysis of Ninja; I've found her posts the last few phases to feel disingenuous, and her desire to lynch a person rather than an element in the last Day phase to be suspicious. Her vote without any discussion or elaboration at all clinches it for me.

I voted Clucker without bothering to look at how the votes were spread first.

I really have no idea whom to trust at this point, but just about the only thing I feel good about is that DB is not the Process. It wouldn't at all surprise me if he's bad, but then at this point nobody would really surprise me.

Re: Transistor [Night 8]

I found K4J's repsonses to the case on him pretty sincere, and I don't really see much which ties him to MP, Eloh or the Process.

Mac's responses feel disingenuous to me, and his voting record doesn't help his case. I agree with JJJ that Mac is more likely to be a baddie than Process (especially since he's seemed somewhat absent while the Process has seemingly been quite active), while Ninja could be either, and I think with two baddies left we really need to take one of them out this round. Thus, I'm *voting Mac*

Re: Transistor [Night 8]

Those are good points about Ninja, though it's entirely possible for DB to be MP's teammate. I could definitely see MP taking a gamble like that. However, I also think it's more likely that Ninja is the Process than that DB is, so mathematically I find her more suspect. Honestly I've not examined K4J much at all, I just get a civvie vibe from him. I will review his posts later and see where I rank him.

It is entirely winnable, but to get there we're going to need coordination amongst town reads and communication about courses to be followed. Without vote changes, any vote placed by a townie upon another townie has the potential to be very damaging at this point, and we stand a better chance of avoiding that if we talk everything over before the votes start falling and facilitate coordinated voting and team work. I'd like to hear perspectives from everyone remaining on the following points:

1. Who are your town reads?

2. Who do you think are most likely to be mafia?

3. Who do you think are most likely to be the Process?

4. Do you feel we should lynch a player or an element this day phase?
1. JJJ, K4J, and Ninja.

2. Llama and Mac. I suspect they may have just decided to throw caution to the wind and play unreadable games.

3. Gleam, particularly because of his recent post along with the fact that he's never voted an element.

4. I would be in favor of lynching Gleam, because I feel the most confident about him and sooner or later we need to lynch the Process.

As far as actual suspicions go, Zebra's weird behavior is striking me as very unhelpful and rather pingy. Matt a bit as well, but at least he's explained himself for the most part.
What about reywaS? His behavior has been the very definition of "very unhelpful"; he hasn't been here.

So because you interpret this behavior to be within zebra's meta, but Wilgy's is in within meta, then zebra's behavior being "weird" makes her worthy of your vote? How is that logical at all?

Weird DOES NOT EQUAL suspicious. Can anyone actually explain to me the mafia motivation behind zebra's actions?
MP voiced exaggerated displeasure at the Zebra wagon and DF was the target of that in a couple cases. Given that this was a white-knighting job by MP in defense of Zebra, this might be a nice look for DFaraday -- he'd be taking the brunt of the blame for the wagon that could be blamed on numerous people.

And now he says he's rethinking the suspicion in light of Elo's flip. Idk, it might be a stretch but I could see it.

DF, why do you think you need to reconsider your suspicion of Nero based on the result?
I would have to examine some interactions first, and I don't like getting into team theories too ahead of myself, but I'd tentatively agree that DF and Nero are teammate-compatible. I'm not sure whether the point about DF's participation is anything alignment-indicative though.
Subscribes to nutella's assertion that DF and Nero might be team mates. Nero wasn't bad. Could be opportunism by MP.

DFaraday wrote:When did Day 1 votes become such serious business around here? I recall a time when half the field would randomize on Day 1 and nobody thought it weak, when Jason Maher would vote himself every Day 1 and nobody complained, and actually having a substantial reason for voting that early was unusual. Did something change, or am I severely misremembering, because I still don't approach Day 1 with that much analysis.

I would also note that MP says there is no reason for a baddie to act the way Zebra was, which may be true (though I think baddies can play intentionally obtuse in thread to avoid committing to anything). However, I would ask what reason a baddie specifically would have for giving such a throwaway reason for voting someone. I don't think it's a stretch to say that civvies vote for lame reasons just as much as baddies, and I really don't see how a weak voting reason is alignment-indicative at all.

If you want to say my vote was weaksauce, fine, it kind of was, but it doesn't make me bad.

You seem to be scapegoating hard though. It makes me a little wary of you, throwing blame around. Did you defend Zebra or her actions anywhere? If this lynch was as bad as you make it out to be, you should have been more vocal about it before it happened.

Won´t it just regenerate if we kill it? I think someone(Nutella maybe) wrote something about those cells.
This struck me as a NO U, and rather inaccurate assessment of MP.
This might be the most curious moment for DFaraday. Nero suggested that MP was scapegoating people for the Zebra lynch, and the primary target of that would have been DFaraday himself. DFaraday defended MP in this case though and accused Nero of a "NO U".

DFaraday: please talk about this moment if you could. Try to revisit your mindset at this point in the game and add some clarity to your willingness to give MP the benefit of the doubt as he was criticizing you so harshly for the Zebra wagon.

Decent enough look that DF made sure to include MP in the Day 6 discussions of Snapshot's role check power and what it might mean about the players he suspected.

I think this is mostly of a positive reflection for DFaraday. I would like to hear more about the points highlighted in pink though.
Just because he was suspecting me didn't make me suspect him. I felt that Nero was overreacting to MP's suspicion of us, and called him on it. Apparently I was wrong about both of them, but my suspicions weren't based on their feelings towards me.

It's nice to see that Llama is at least engaging somewhat, which makes me feel better about him than Mac. I also think it best to find the Process rather than continuing to lynch its functions. There are only a handful of real players left, and the longer we fail to find the Process, the more time the baddies have to kill us.

So, what do you make of DF suspicion of Nero? Do you think they're teammates? I don't recall a lot of opinions from DF (if I missed something, please let me know)...so I would be inclined to believe that the few suspicions that DF does share, if he were bad, wouldn't be a teammate. Especially considering Nero was not really under fire.
I do actually think DF and Nero could be teammates. DF already seems to be participating more than he usually does (usually barely at all), and I guess I see your point that his few contributions must be legit but I could also see him cleverly fabricating a suspicion on a teammate that might not have seemed likely to go anywhere. His "case"/comment on Nero was pretty weak and he ends up classifying it as a "mild baddie" read, not a very committed suspicion, and misses the vote anyway. And now he says he's rethinking the suspicion in light of Elo's flip. Idk, it might be a stretch but I could see it.

DF, why do you think you need to reconsider your suspicion of Nero based on the result?
I think that's a bit of an exaggeration, but I'll move on rather than get into that.

Now that we know Elo was bad, I need to see whether there are any in-thread connections between Nero and Elo, or whether they interacted to any notable degree.

Voting Operator just because.
I don´t think we did - but I find it troublesome that you are actively looking for evidence to support your pre-existing suspicion. Its like the conspiracy theorists who twist anything they find to fit their theory. Okay its not exactly like that, but thats the feeling I get with this post.

Im not sure it´s alignment indicative though. Im still feeling civ about you.
What? No, I'm not. All I mean is that now that we've got a baddie I want to see if there is anything which would either link you to or suggest you're not aligned with Elo.

Having reviewed their posts, there is zero interaction between Nero and Elo since Night 0, where Elo said Nero had a good theory. So that was a dead end.

Re: Transistor [Night 2]

I'm so sorry I missed the vote! I unexpectedly had to work late and wasn't able to check in.

I wasn't really feeling the Elo suspicion, so good call, Elo voters! I would have voted Nero, though I'll have to rethink that suspicion in light of this result.

Ugh, I know.

You seem to be scapegoating hard though. It makes me a little wary of you, throwing blame around. Did you defend Zebra or her actions anywhere? If this lynch was as bad as you make it out to be, you should have been more vocal about it before it happened.

Won´t it just regenerate if we kill it? I think someone(Nutella maybe) wrote something about those cells.
This struck me as a NO U, and rather inaccurate assessment of MP.

Hold the phone. Why is that a bad thing?

You are preemptively setting yourself up for failure, but only becaused you defined the action as failure. Why?
Because I struggle forming independent reads in the beginning of a game and it bugs me. I think it is a bad thing that I must rely on other player´s cases.

At least I am able to reflect on this, I guess.

Ugh I just need to be better at mafia. 7 losses in a row have made me a little sour.
This feels genuine, but in a game with Mafia and an Independent threat, isn't necessarily indicative of alignment. There wasn't a lot to go on, but I'd read Nero as mildly baddie based on his posts.

Re: Transistor [Day 1]

So in trying to review the Zebra voters, I went over Illy first, and just a couple of things stood out in her handful of posts.
Illyria wrote:
a2thezebra wrote:No one died on Night 1? :omg:

I don't understand why a number of people are suspecting me. I'll probably vote for DrumBeats today.
Drum, and you think I am skimming? :goofp:
a2thezebra wrote:Whoa, this is coming out of nowhere!
No.. no it isn't.

I don't know you, so I can't speak to your playstyle but when several people whom I DO know are saying this is not normal, which is matching what my gut is telling me, I am going to listen.

I am reading every post, but the real crux is that I don't understand what is going with the game mechanics itself-- I am still not wanting to run w/Drum's plan (too risky) though at least I understand what you are saying better now than I did when you first posted it.

Matt, I think you and Elo have very different playstyles which can be problematic. I am reminded that you and I do as well, and you were like a damn dog with a bone decrying I was bad for what.. Four Mafia days?? I was not. I do not trust your instincts. So I am not following an Elo vote.

My list of who I suspect right now is not all that clear. So I am going to do a rainbow list like y'all like. In dark colors though, y'all are KILLING my old eyeballs with these neon and bright colors. :sigh:

Maybe Good:
MP
Matt


No Idea:
Elo
JJJ
Drum
LA
llama
Rey
sig
niju
nero
DF
AATB
agle


Maybe Bad:
Dr Wilgy
Zebra


LA, congrats that is amazing. I am so proud of you! :hugs:
Here she expresses her confusion with what's going on in the game, which she did repeatedly. It almost felt like she was relying on "I'm confused about what's happening" to avoid weighing in too much. Examples:
Illyria wrote:Whoo hoo! Game!

I am already confused y'all. This might be worse than Dom's Pokemon game which about scarred me for life.
Illyria wrote: I am so glad you and LA are here to suss this stuff out.
Illyria wrote: I wish I understood the lingo better. Does Badcell mean Bad as in Evil and Anti Town or something else? It would inform my decisions. :sigh:
She does firmly defend Elo though, whatever that may indicate.

Illy also puts Wilgy in her bad category, even though she doesn't actually suspect him for anything:
Illyria wrote:*sigh*
:sigh:

Dr Wilgy, I get that you are "zany", but your playstyle is making me want to vote for you.

But I am voting for zebra, I have to go to work and will be at work until 1 am tonight so I am voting now. Their confuzzled demeanor seems fake, and over the top.


Votes Zebra
She didn't mention anything about Sig, which makes her look a bit better in my eyes, but overall I don't have a great feeling about her. Next I'll review Nero.

Who did you want to lynch sig?
Yeah MP, I kind of kept up with the thread, but didn't write a great big post.
I noticed Zebra's cheerleader/blondieness and was surprised it took so long for someone to point it out, I think Matt's NO U vote and then explanation was really weird. Eloh and Matt went back and forth and I got nothing from it. I'm null on MP he seems really eager and I'm not sure if that is his civ self or not. I think at least one or two mafia members voted for Zebra she was an easy lynch button and I think people took advantage of that.

If I had to pick between Eloh and Zebra I'd have picked Eloh. However, if I could pick anyone it would be Wilgy for trying to get me lynched when I was silenced. :meany:
This makes me think that one of the Zebra voters (yes, I know that includes me) likely killed Sig. I'll go over their posts in the morning.

Re: Transistor [Day 2]

When did Day 1 votes become such serious business around here? I recall a time when half the field would randomize on Day 1 and nobody thought it weak, when Jason Maher would vote himself every Day 1 and nobody complained, and actually having a substantial reason for voting that early was unusual. Did something change, or am I severely misremembering, because I still don't approach Day 1 with that much analysis.

I would also note that MP says there is no reason for a baddie to act the way Zebra was, which may be true (though I think baddies can play intentionally obtuse in thread to avoid committing to anything). However, I would ask what reason a baddie specifically would have for giving such a throwaway reason for voting someone. I don't think it's a stretch to say that civvies vote for lame reasons just as much as baddies, and I really don't see how a weak voting reason is alignment-indicative at all.

If you want to say my vote was weaksauce, fine, it kind of was, but it doesn't make me bad.

EBWOP: K4J, for the longest time your avi was a source of gender confusion for me. :D

And no, I don't think Wilgy is being very helpful either, but he does this regardless of alignment. I don't recall Zebra ever behaving this way.

Re: Transistor [Day 1]

I'm not necessarily opposed to DB's idea, but I don't know if the baddies would actually go along with that, since it would require them to spend NKs on the Process but not the player behind it (or anyone else). We also don't know if DB's NK-then-lynch plan is even how to defeat the process.

As far as actual suspicions go, Zebra's weird behavior is striking me as very unhelpful and rather pingy. Matt a bit as well, but at least he's explained himself for the most part.
