Re: [Day 9] GY!BE Mafia
I think Sleep could have had that power in the [secrets], and the absence of a Captain Insano today would seem to indicate that ability has gone.Metalmarsh89 wrote:Another note, there was obviously an insanifier role in this game, one that is likely mafia. Dom is most likely Sleep, so he could not have that power. G-Man did not have that power. I feel confident that Quin and LoRab were civilians with BTSC, thus didn't have that power. Sig was not around to properly and so methodically use that power.
The players that are left: I feel confident Epignosis is a civilian. DrWilgy/BWT haven't been around to effectively use that power. That leaves you Jay. But with Sleep presumably dead, the trend makes sense that if you are mafia, then you could only kill, not use such a power.
OR
You are the SK, and you opted not to kill or use that power to give the impression that the SK is dead (unlikely).

This guy.
Claims credit and moral high ground for presenting a preferable alternative which was ignored, criticize other players who didn't accept that alternative while also carrying on a discussion with those people, maybe lynch G-Man after having a mutual exchange in which you felt his content was faked after discussing why you felt it was faked or maybe decide that's not the greatest lynch, called me scum for things you're also guilty of (I'll give you that one), and made a visible and consistent effort to hunt for bad guys comparable to the most effortful players in the game.

I'd have to review the exact moment of Wilgy's arrival relative to the SK kills to be certain. My take has been that it'd be unlikely.

I don't think this is fully conclusive and I don't think it warrants a "definitely", but I understand. I like that you've been considering the notion for so long too.

Hey 3J-
Who is the serial killer?
The reasons you gave in defense of INH and A Person were either completely irrelevant to my suspicions or just plain crap. Your defense of A Person was based on his post count. You were on a team with reywaS in recent memory and know better than that logic.
I don't know who the SK is. I don't even know if the SK is alive. If it's one of you my first guess would be Marmot.
Mafia -- Epignosis

Re: [Day 9] GY!BE Mafia
One concern I have about Epignosis is that Both LoRab and Quin colored him green on their simultaneous reads posts. The M=R role doesn't provide a method for them to arrive at a conclusive read though so I am not sure how they came to it. One possibility would be that one of them ID'd Epignosis and he didn't die. There's a percentage chance working in there though which means that's not clear.

Dom and Metalmarsh89
Dom's posts about Metalmarsh89:
Day 1 suspicion of Marmot for the timmer/Boomslang timing thing.
Restates the negative read on MM through Sloonei. / Again.
"Nonsensical reasons" is strong language against MM.
Dom backtracked hard from that suspicion in response to MM clarifying his vote switch.
Contests MM's comment to Epignosis.
Calls for more Day 3 focus on MM among these other two.
I don't know what the point of this question was -- he asked Marmot to read BWT's mind.
Same point made earlier -- he lamented that people weren't talking more about Marmot's suspicions of BWT.
Curse babble in response to MM's BWT vote, which I assume was meant to be approving. / Affirmed.
GTH town read on Day 5
Disagreement about how to judge trice's alignment.
~~~~~
Metalmarsh89's posts about Dom:
Answers Dom's prod for suspects. / More.
Clarifies his positive perspective of Epignosis in response to Dom's questioning.
Pledged to not vote for Dom on Day 3.
Expands on his civilian read on Dom -- appreciates his efforts to engage with people at length.
GTH good read on Day 3
Still positive on Day 4 when he invites Dom to the funeral.
Night 4 civilian read.
Develops a code at Dom's behest when cursed again.
Reasserts civilian read on Dom.
Acknowledges that he hadn't talked much about Dom. It looks like a civilian read is being implied here though that's unclear.
~~~~~
Conclusion:
I would be more comfortable with this if I saw more evidence of a progressing read by MM on Dom. He arrived at a civilian read at an undefined point and didn't move from that during Dom's lifespan. I do think, however, that Dom's treatment of Marmot on Day 1 looks opportunistic -- he hounded him for the logical discrepancy, and then awkwardly bailed on that when Marmot explained his vote switch. That would represent pretty sloppy teammate behavior, and I think that's a decent look for MM.

I would be more comfortable with this if I saw more evidence of a progressing read by MM on Dom. He arrived at a civilian read at an undefined point and didn't move from that during Dom's lifespan. I do think, however, that Dom's treatment of Marmot on Day 1 looks opportunistic -- he hounded him for the logical discrepancy, and then awkwardly bailed on that when Marmot explained his vote switch. That would represent pretty sloppy teammate behavior, and I think that's a decent look for MM.

Re: [Day 9] GY!BE Mafia
I welcome your thoughts. Fuck whether he minds. We can't dick around with only 4 people alive. I ask though that if you're a civilian, please remove the word "definitely" from your vocabulary. This is likely to be the last phase of the game and we need to be as thorough as possible. I think there are serious problems with Epi's Dom interactions.Metalmarsh89 wrote:I'll explain why I think he's definitely civilian (if he doesn't mind) when I get home.JaggedJimmyJay wrote:Why?Metalmarsh89 wrote:Epignosis gets a pass today.

Re: [Day 9] GY!BE Mafia
Dom and Epignosis
Dom's posts about Epignosis:
Defensive of Epi in response to Scotty's Day 1 vote.
Again in response to trice.
Sort of similar in response to Sloonei.
States a town read on Epi through Sloonei.
Trend continues. / More.
Joins Epignosis in this criticism of MP.
More defense.
More. / More. / More.
Curse banter. / More, this time in discussion of BWT[/url]
Town GTH read Day 5
The first halfway-critical thing Dom has said to Epignosis. Barely.
Still a civilian read on Day 7.
His read explained. He called Epi genuine and suggested he was targeted opportunistically.
~~~~~
Epignosis's posts about Dom:
Cursed response to trice placing Dom and Epi in a team together (along with me). I dunno what Epi wanted to say, maybe he can clarify now.
Banter.
Questions Dom's suspicion of BWT and a few other things. No read is implied on Dom.
~~~~~
Conclusion:
Dom's read on Epignosis started great and stayed that way for his entire lifespan. He defended Epignosis constantly. In many cases that's not something that I'd find immediately problematic, but in this case we need to understand the player -- Epignosis. Has anyone ever naturally trusted him unconditionally in his entire Mafia career? Dom made no visible effort to explore his read on Epignosis or reassess it, it merely happened and never changed. Epignosis also said close to nothing about Dom and never made any clear read on him either. Indeed his most engaged treatment of Dom came when Dom was cursed.
Bad look.

Re: [Day 9] GY!BE Mafia
Dom and birdwithteeth11 / DrWilgy 2.0
Dom's posts about BWT/Wilgy:
Prodded Scotty to expand on his Day 1 suspicion of BWT.
A little shade is implied in this question but not outright stated.
Dom made this "code" thing a consistent point of grief in his treatment of BWT. I think that's a decent look, because I rarely see mafia members trying to nail their teammates for "slippy" stuff like this -- they more commonly sweep it under the rug by talking about anything else.
Light contest of timmer's suspicion of BWT and questioning of my defense of BWT simultaneously.
Dom's own stance on BWT is muddy here because of this two-way kind of griping.
Dom made a point of expressing his beef with BWT here, and redirected timmer to his "code" thing when his stated BWT read was questioned/contested.
Dom asked Marmot this question about BWT, showing he'd observed something questionable but not stating his own stance.
Laments that others didn't seem to be talking about MM's beefs with BWT, if I understand this correctly.
BWT is GTH bad on Day 5. I think that's what his coding meant at least.
After Wilgy replaced in for BWT, Dom clarified him as being his top suspect. The highlighted portion here looks like an unreasonable demand of Wilgy -- to change his [already made up] mind without having a fair grasp of the game to that point. That's a nice look for BWT/Wilgy.
This was directed at sig. It's a bit tinfoil but this does look like an attempt at drawing a false link between sig and BWT, something that is more sensible in a world where BWT is bad.
This was Dom's response to my asking him why he read the Marmot as a townie. He attributed that read to the voting behavior of BWT.
Dom kept the pressure on through Day 7. In these posts it really looks to me like Dom is just pretending to give Wilgy a "fair chance", because what he was asking for was never reasonable in the first place. And on that front, I think it's a good look for BWT/Wilgy.
~~~~~
BWT/Wilgy's posts about Dom:
This was in BWT's list of Day 1 reads. It's a rather pointless inclusion.
This was in response to MP's discussion of POE. Dom prodded everyone for thoughts and BWT's response is reads-neutral.
BWT joined Dom in this little light poking of MP.
This whole exchange looks innocent to me[/url] re: BWT. It looks more like Dom flinging mud and seeing what sticks.
Chummy.
Compares Dom to Scotty, seems a little more negative in his assessment of Scotty. /// Affirmed here -- it should be noted that at this point in the game I had the same perspective. That's what inspired this dialogue in the first place.
I don't recall seeing much evidence of this being BWT's read on Dom.
Calls Dom a suspect alongside LoRab in response to trice's suspect list.
~~~~~
There's a little of everything in this review. What I think looks the best for BWT/Wilgy is Dom's most recent handling of that player slot -- he has voiced clear and consistent suspicion of them, and the "space" he was giving to Wilgy to catch up just looked very fake. That looks more like opportunism than distancing to me. On the flip side, BWT's read on Dom didn't develop in a way that is easy to follow or understand, and that's not great.
Overall, I think the positive point is more inspired than the negative.
I'll reiterate that this entire exercise is based upon the theory that Dom was Sleep. If any of you has a reason to theorize something else, speak up.

I'm probably alive because I still don't know what is going on.

Re: [Day 9] GY!BE Mafia
Mladic delivered the kill, suggesting Sleep is gone. I thought it looked pretty clear that Quin and LoRab were M=R, which would imply Dom was Sleep. Sleep killed Night 7 but not Night 8. There's also the fact that if Sleep was alive, this game would likely be over -- 2 living mafia in a game of 4 players.
The lack of a SK kill is less clear cut. The SK killed Dom on Night 7, and the other two deaths were M=R if that reasoning holds. So I don't see how the SK could have been dead entering Night 8. It could have been sig, but there'd still be an SK kill. That would imply a roleblock or protection of some sort. The only alternative I see is either Quin or LoRab being the SK -- making me wonder how they could have pulled off that simultaneous reads list maneuver they did. Sorting this out is key, because there's a huge difference between 3 vs. 1 and 2 vs. 1 vs. 1.
