The night I died, I was defending myself. Then dunya went on a huge rant against me and I felt the suspicion level was high enough to justify... sigh... re-sending the action as do nothing.

Re: Space Invaders [Night 3]

I mean, what I really believe, is that Epignosis didn't waste one of his valuable protects on Night 1. Him saying it was enough, I hope that I'm right, because that would be awesome... we'll find out after the game. I mean, it should be a big part of the game, claiming one thing in the thread, and doing another, to mess with the Aliens. I get that there's a Bunker Plan that everyone should follow, but that doesn't preclude the temptation to become a rogue element in order to gain advantage later in the game.

Is the plan to kill a specific three players in order really that solid? Does it consider rogue elements and the risk calculations that may be happening in the Alien camp?

Re: Space Invaders [Night 3]

I want to make sure I understand the reasoning behind why it has to be you three. Why couldn't any given wolfteam decide to go for the Gusto and hope that some bunkers will save their protect, believing no one would dare attack Nutella with our awesome plan. It has occurred to me to do such a deceptive thing in order to save protects for later.

The result in the thread is identical. They shot nutella twice and crossed their fingers. There is no arguable advantage at all to holstering, therefore they didn't do it.
not disagreeing with your post, but what is it in relation to? My post was pointing out that Dunya sauing "it means mafia did not shoot nutella" is weird.

Can you try to argue the advantage of dumping KP onto Nutella to keep POE wide?

I cant work my brain around it, but doesnt mean I'm not wrong or that aliens think this was optimal. I mean, if they did do it, its working out pretty well for them since Im advocating I get myself shot.

any likely candidates from the meta you think would do this?

Thoughts on Tony early on hinting they thought the 4 protectors likely has 1-2 aliens in it and him now looking to find theories away from that? I'll be honest, I would feel more confident in the plan if Dizzy had flipped alien but I'm still sticking to it.
I'm not trying to argue the advantage, I'm analyzing from the information that we have.

I don't know that I agree with you advocating nutella lasering you as part of a mechanical plan. If you're town, it's a bad result, or maybe you're an Alien who hopes this gambit will be TWTBW, I dunno. I don't like it though.

My post was not dirdctly relating to your last one, but just generally about the discussion. It was a realization I had.
Google failed for TWTBW.

If I an alien, I dont push for this plan because I die. I can push other plans. I feel townread enough, I can push any agenda. I dont need to push one where I die. Just my take on the game.

I was not saying I believe you believe in advantage in keeping POE wide, was just asking for you to spitball since you were online.

Also did some mild digging and saw you are an artist, which is cool, and means I should expect creative things from you.
Most of my creativity goes into evil plans. :feb: Or in proposing evil plans the scum team might be employing. I'm heavily into risky gambits, which is why I see the advantage of you putting yourself out there as the laser kill: no Alien would EVER do that, right? I don't think nutella is considering shooting you. Which is exactly where an Alien wants to be.

....wait what

first of all why do you keep saying you know proto is town


I have to think about this more


but it could still just be you and tsp
I think I get what she is saying.

I know I am town, its mod confirmed dizzy is town, mafia knows dizzy's and my own alignment, therefore mafia know there are 2 saves on Nutella.

The case has logic.

The reason why I still want to kill Dunya anyway is while her trap of not confirming the save in the night can be viewed towny (as a trap), it can also be viewed scummy if you think it may have been intended to cause paranoid town who were not requested to save, to expend bunker saves onto Nutella. This does kind of push into the world where aliens intentionally dump KP into Nutella though, so it doesnt necessarily have to be a team that includes Dunya.
Yeah, trying to get saves wasted on nutella doesn't work with the idea of shooting nutella. If dunya wanted to lure bunker saves, then the only logical thing to so is shoot some townfolk, not hit up a super-protected nutella. And I don't believe that Alien holstering is a reality in any universe.

Why?

Also do you think Rej will claim a protect on Epi if Epi was their teammate? And if you're answer to this is going to be "wifom" then I think the convo will stop there.
I have been hard defending people I don't need to. It should look scummy to town. It's weird people townread me so strongly.

I tried to deflect a shot away from Rej.

I am hard defending Nanook, Alison, carotenoid.

If there is a person with high partner equity it's me.

Re save on to epi? Don't know. If I was in alien chat I would have suggested they don't claim a save at all.
I feel like I see half the players in any given game slamming down hard Town reads all the time, starting on Day Zero. You committing to hard Town reads that I don't understand doesn't phase me like you seemed to think it would. Maybe it's the environment here.
Me specifically or in general?

I would be suspicious of someone giving hard townreads that I don't think the person making them believes in.
In general. I just accept that everyone judges things in different ways, until something sets off alarm bells. You specifically as well, because I have never played with you before, so I don't know how you usually play, or if these townreads are unusual for you.
who specifically has set off clear alien alarm bells and why.
Tutuu did, which also raised some alarms about epignosis.

Which analysis in particular.

I didn't like any of it but I have tmi because I know my own alignment.
I think this one: http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 86#p619986
Before I dissect all of it, do you agree with all of his analysis or only parts? Any parts you disagree with?
I believe he found 19 instances of "Epi" in a single post of yours, but I don't really care.

I don't agree that you would protect Hally because you found her "lock town", but I do see how she would be a likely kill for you due to it.

I see him critical of you calling Alison "hard town", which takes on a different flavour when I consider our conversation a couple of hours ago.

I get very critical of you when he compares your treatment of me versus the treatment of the Soneji and rej. This was a powerful part, I thought.

Some more analysis of you and Soneji in the bottom of the second spoiler is very teammate-like.

Which analysis in particular.

I didn't like any of it but I have tmi because I know my own alignment.

What did you think of Epignosis' analysis of Soneji and rej interactions? proto looks like a teammate in them; am I allowing myself to be swayed by biased conclusions by Epi?

Can you explain your day/night progression of yours reads on below players? Ideally with some blurb for me to follow as to why.

Epi
Tony
Longcon

I just did an iso on you. Reason I cant read you is you make a lot of short posts and ask a lot of questions, but havent seen any walls of text for me to get any sense of where your head is at. Not everyone is a wall of text kind of person, but it would help me a lot to determine your alignment if you explain your read progression on these 3 players.
epi- scum epi doesn't get so opinionated and fixated on bad reads. he's in TMI land and will make reads that are more easy to push. going after me and you--not easy. why would he not instead make fake cases on people we are more easily to suspect? tunnelling a brand new player to our website from day 0--not epi behavior. plus, he's basically oozing town and i will bet my cat on it. if i lose to him this game, i'm more than ok with that. i don't agree with a lot of his reads, i mean, i think he's very wrong about me and you, but i'm okay with that.

tony- i waffle on tony tbh. but he makes some posts that just seem so authentically coming from a townie mindset that i wanna lock town him. his game mechanic solving has seemed as authentic as nanook's... i guess i felt a little less confident with him sort of disappearing, but it doesn't change his iso looking townie. we just finished playing a game together where he was in LyLo with LC and Epi. i knew he was town there, and i believe he's town here. there's a lot of overlap in behavior.

lc- i dunno. my weakest town read is on lc out of these three, but i iso'd them and like, didn't feel any negative energy from their posts. seem really authentic and in a setup like this, i feel like LC woulda been stronger at bussing. that's speculative but idk, i just don't think they're in my poe now.
Are you allowed to bet a cat?

Why?

Also do you think Rej will claim a protect on Epi if Epi was their teammate? And if you're answer to this is going to be "wifom" then I think the convo will stop there.
I have been hard defending people I don't need to. It should look scummy to town. It's weird people townread me so strongly.

I tried to deflect a shot away from Rej.

I am hard defending Nanook, Alison, carotenoid.

If there is a person with high partner equity it's me.

Re save on to epi? Don't know. If I was in alien chat I would have suggested they don't claim a save at all.
I feel like I see half the players in any given game slamming down hard Town reads all the time, starting on Day Zero. You committing to hard Town reads that I don't understand doesn't phase me like you seemed to think it would. Maybe it's the environment here.
Me specifically or in general?

I would be suspicious of someone giving hard townreads that I don't think the person making them believes in.
In general. I just accept that everyone judges things in different ways, until something sets off alarm bells. You specifically as well, because I have never played with you before, so I don't know how you usually play, or if these townreads are unusual for you.

Ok, sorry... I mean, everyone is asking everyone to reveal what they did last night, and I just got caught up and shared my non-action. I didn't get it because I'm, like, one of the only players who hadn't reveled it yet, and you didn't make the joke on any of them. I thought it was personally directed at me, wasn't sure if it was Rej-related shade. Or psychic vision, since...

I did protect Epi the first night. :blush: :blush: :blush:

So yeah, technically a possibility, I’m kinda tossing it out of consideration for now tho.
I would not be likely to intentionally forego two kills. Maybe if our most townread people were really sadistic and just want to see us kill ourselves.

I still think some people might be able to get cleared off the flip on Rej. Like Hally if they were still alive. I think they had Rej and Soneji as partners but memory might be wrong.
Uh, that was me. :grin:

Since there are only two aliens left that should guarantee I'm okay. @Epignosis and @tutuu, no need to use yours up, thank you.
I believe that two shots is the max that any number of Aliens could have done on an even night.

I really think we have few enough nights left that it'd honestly be fine for everyone to save someone tonight lol. Maybe we even assign them all out loud and it could work out that actually nobody could die?? Hmmm


Seriously I'm not mathing this out so if what I'm saying is bullshit lmk
Impossible to save everyone.

You would be putting 4 players into guaranteed death assuming 4 saves on you (which is what I think you need). Of those 4, 2 would remain alive who you could assign high mafia equity. The cost is an additional 5 bunker saves.

That's almost 2 laser shots.

I still agree with Nanook that never worth to save anyone not Nutella when there are this many players still in the game.

Potential errors in my model - feel free to poke holes etc
If four people use their bunker protects to save themselves, then that is equal to one Alien kill of a full Bunker, with regards to the number of protections left for nutella. Then if the Aliens get a kill, that's more shots lost. Doesn't seem like much right now, but in two days, if nutella misses the next two laser shots, we could end up with people running low. Then we'll have to rely on bluffing? Not ideal.

When will the Aliens start to assume we're bluffing about the level of protection on nutella? Will they ever risk a shot on her? What if their strategy is to ignore nutella and win the old-fashioned way? Having the first two shots going off Ripley-style really puts a crimp in any plan like that.

If no one protects themselves, we will lose two bunkers tonight. If people protect themselves, we really could end up losing two bunkers anyway.
