Thanks MP! I knew you wouldn't let us down.

No banner?

*ahem* *cough cough*whereisthewinnersbanner*cough cough* *ahem*

Yo yo congrats Enrique!!!

FZ - Who was your civilian role check at the beginning of the game?

I didn't know what to do all game. My mafia skillz are lacking. And since there was no second mafia, I wasn't able to legitimately suss peeps so I was skerred. Haha.

Then Boom and Enrique voted for Luke and I was like "wtf" cuz that wasn't the plan, I don't think, and I'd already defended Luke in this game and I didn't know what to do haha.

Oh well it all worked out.

Good game peeps. We lucked out with FZ night one.

Lol MM, read the spectator chat, I think you were one of my cop suspects because of you doing that haha.

If luke is civ and isn't even voting, then we might be sol anyway.

Eff it voting Luke.

I'm waitin' for bea to show before I vote. Again, though, I feel like if Luke were civvie, then the game would already be over (also assuming at least one of Enrique or Boomslang are civvie) with the Mafia tacking on after them.

The poll doesn't have an end time, is it over when everyone votes?

Sorry peeps just got home.

I'm not sure what to do here. I feel like if Luke were civ, then the Mafia would've all voted him once Boomslang or Enrique did (if they are civvie, as well). Why didn't Floyd vote?

Boomslang and Enrique - I thought both of you were also looking at Tranq. What happened?

I think you make a good case on Tranq, bea. Like I said, I don't have much experience playing with him, but I know he's been way more involved in other games I've played with him then in this one.

And I KNOW he's as experienced as you say he is, hasn't he been playing since the Lost boards? Of all the players outside Floyd and Luke, Tranq is my best bet for Mafia. I'd like to take a look at Enrique. He came out swinging pretty hard asking people for contributions, and then once you make one, Bea, he's like "Hey yo bea, slow down slow down." Wtf

bea wrote:matt - look back at who these discussions have happened with - he resonds to boomslang. Like his whole 2 pets 1 sound thing was in reply to boom. I think if tranq is bad, boom *might* be his teammate, but I've not looked at boom iso at like all and I'd like to find tranq out first. bad duchie is bad.

I haven't played with Tranq all that much so I don't know what's common for him but I also suspected him (and Wilgy, derp) because of their Zebra votes. I thought they might be on a team but obvi not. As for Boom, the only ping I've gotten off him was when he went after newbie Luke at the beginning of the game for the "no lynch" thing, but then took his vote off of him once he learned how new Luke was.

Anyway you have way more experience with Tranq then I do, bea, does he typically speak with his teammates directly in thread or does he avoid them when bad? I'm pretty sure when I have played with him, he's posted way more then he has this game whether civ or bad, so I don't know what to think.

What do you think of Floyd, bea?

RIP Choutas and Wilgy

I'm scared now

Floyd is still a good option, I think, but I know he asked to be replaced in another game so I don't even know if he's still playing. And Luke hasn't posted for 5 days wtf

Anyway, going to iso everyone now and see if anything sticks out.

Floyd and Luke - Are you guys still playing?

bea - Please share your thoughts.

Choutas - Besides Wilgy, what are you thinking? The bulk of your posts aren't about much, and in the few that you suspect Wilgy, you say "Voting Wilgy until a better case forms" and then "Voting Wilgy cuz two dead civs voted for him".

Do you have any current thoughts Enrique? I noticed you just lectured Wilgy for leaving suddenly but then you didn't voice any real thoughts of your own either.

RIP Zebra and Marsh



Okay, I'm still down with a Floyd lynch, but after reviewing the polls, I think a read on Wilgy and Tranq is a good idea. I noticed they both voted Zebra on Day 1, avoiding the bcornett lynch and then both helped lynch Zebra on Day 2. I remember Wilgy made the statistical post about how the mafia doesn't vote together early, so I'm wondering if that was a nice little "haha see what I did there?" move by him. I'm pretty sure Wilgy also slightly defended Tranq early in the game too. I'll reread both but that'd be swell if everyone did the same.

bea - Do you have any suspicions? What do you think of Wilgy, Tranq, and Floyd?

Is nobody else feeling Floyd? I appreciate the answers, Floyd, but I feel like something doesn't add up with you voting for your bud like that. Wilgy earlier you said you felt Floyd was civvie, how so?

I also don't understand the votes on Wilgy so soon after we learn FZ was the cop. I'm not saying let him slide all game but so soon?

After reviewing a few ISOs...

Boomslang - Do you no longer find Tranq suspicious? It seems you were questioning him a bit and then dropped it completely and moved to Choutas.

bea - I know you're sick but do you have any suspicions?

Who wants to vote Floyd with me?

Floyd, I appreciate being green on your rainbow list, but can you explain the process of voting for Luke on Day 1 to marking him as "maybe civ" on your list?

I'm not sold on Wilgy being civ. But the fact stands that FZ did say she liked him for now, and you have to admit that he is posting way more then he did as a baddy in TH, which is the only other game I've played with him (besides LC's where he replaced, I think). I think that makes sense, why don't you?

Hey Floyd, I think you may have missed this.

Matt F wrote:Anyway, Floyd, why did you vote for Luke? In the post voting for him, you said "You really have to read the whole thread before posting"...so did you think he was bad or was it just a place vote which you never got around to changing?

Wilgy, I don't know which direction to look right now. Again, you and Luke were slightly defended by FZ. On top of that, you already have 70 posts in this game which is more then you had after like 6 day phases in Talking Heads so if you're bad again, then you're playing it way different. I made a joke earlier about it, but when Zebra starts shouting in all caps, that's typical civ behavior from Zebra I've seen in recent games.

I'd like to hear more from Tranq and whenever she gets better, bea.

Placing a vote on Floyd for now. He hasn't answered my question I posed above despite posting three times since then. I find it really weird that he would vote for his rl buddy knowing Luke is still super new.

Linki - Zebra - I see you've voted for Wilgy. Don't you think he could possibly be the civilian FZ found at the beginning of the game or no? Also, Wilgy is being waaaay different then TH.

FZ was the cop. I'm pretty sure at the beginning of the game, the cop was told one civilian identity. Since the only two she seemed to defend were you and Luke, it stands to reason that one of you may be the identity she received at the start.

Enrique wrote:I don't have much to say about Luke and Matt, but they were both BC voters, which as we all know turned out to be a terrible idea. Matt thought "someone in the Luke voters is bad," which is fair enough, but then he conveniently picked BC out of those. Luke seems to be barely keeping up with the thread, while Matt has definitely been around and should know what's up. I'd like to hear more from both.

No, the vote wasn't convenient. I would've rather put my vote on Floyd, because Floyd is Luke's friend irl and knows more then anyone how new Luke is, but again, at the time only Bcornett had votes out of the three who voted him. What's more, after Boomslang's original sus of Luke, I pointed out how new Luke was, and he continued getting votes from both bcornett and Floyd.

Right now, I agree that FZ seemed to defend both Luke and Wilgy, so I won't be voting either today, however...

DrWilgy wrote:From a game in a half history with Floyd, it seems that he's not a frequent poster. I wouldn't put Floyd on my scumdar because of his behavior so far, but I don't want to have a LYLO situation with civ floyd at this moment. So if his contributions don't increase by the time we come close to LYLO and I'm not dead set on a better option, I would pluck him regardless of alignment.

Really?

Anyway, Floyd, why did you vote for Luke? In the post voting for him, you said "You really have to read the whole thread before posting"...so did you think he was bad or was it just a place vote which you never got around to changing?

Btw, if Zebra is posting in all caps, then she's probably good. :P

RIP bcornett and FZ. Wtf I can't believe the Mafia took out the cop night 1!!

bcornett - I never got a chance to respond to you, and I'm sorry I helped get you lynched, but I thought it was super fishy how people were voting for Luke for the reason they were, considering how new to the game he is. At the time of my vote, Luke had three votes, you had two, and the other Luke voters had zero a piece (Boomslang and Floyd), so pushing you into a tie with Luke was the best option at the time, IMO.

MM - I know you moved your vote away from me, but if there's anything you want to ask, feel free.

I've read the Zebra/Wilgy/MM exchange, but I'm tired and don't think I get some of it. Even though it was explained, I'm still not entirely sure what chinese fire drill means. Can someone explain it again?

And on a positive note, my man Bernie killed it again at the debates tonight. I think my favorite part of the whole night was Hillary invoking 9/11 when discussing her Wall Street backers. Wow.

G2H I think someone in the Luke voters is bad.

bcornett for now.

Sorry, you and Wilgy both have your vote on Enrique. I thought you had your vote on Wilgy.

Derp.

On that note, I'm out. Night peeps

Hi Matt, feeling lonely? You don't have any votes.

Just as I like it.

If not Wilgy, who are you looking at for day 1, MM?

But bea, Luke also played LC's game.

Boomslang, Luke is pretty new to Mafia just so you know. He's played a few games but I think he's still getting the grasp of it.

Zebra...

Why not? Or were you just being funny?

I've heard "LYLO" mentioned in every game I've played since I've been back. What does that refer to?

a2thezebra wrote:I've never seen it work in town's favor. Ever. You're more likely to pick a random player to lynch and get lucky than lynch no one and give scum a free night kill. That's essentially what "no lynch" is, it's surrendering to mafia.

Oh yeah derp. Sorry it's early.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of not having a lynch then. Especially in this game, where the only other weapon the civvies has is the cop, we should utilize everything at our disposal.

Is Mac playing this game? I thought in signups he threatened another policy lynch, but he's not on the poll lol

I've never played with a No Lynch option before.

Wilgy/Zebra - Just curious, what are the bad experiences you guys have had with it?

DrWilgy wrote:Ah! New game! Ok.

MM and Matt, since we don't have btsc yet, I'll ask something here. Which civ are we going to try to get a lynch wagon on today?

MM and I were thinking about bussing you tbh.
