Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 6]

speedchuck wrote: Mon Jan 29, 2018 11:41 am Even if I'm wary of arguments, I'll go ahead and ask the question:

JaggedJimmyJay: What was the motive behind Marmot's play? This was D4, right? The day TSP got lynched? If the running wagons were between LC and TSP, why wouldn't Marmot just vote there? Was he trying to save Lapluie? Nutella? TSP?

:suspish:

Give me a reason that Marmot would intentionally, as scum, be obtuse about Glorf's read/firm and place a vote in a certain place, drawing attention to himself when all four wagons are town (according to Glorf's townfirm thing. He firmed Lapluie, right?).

Tell me why. And if you can't come up with a WHY, then you admit to not understanding Marmot's reason for doing what he did.
When a day phase is literally moments away from its end, the last thing [insert average mafioso] wants to do is change votes to a civilian mislynch in a close tally and end up answering questions for it later. Even if the counterwagons are civilian, nobody knows that until some undefined later point. There doesn't have to be any "save". Any changed vote brings questions, and with a minute to play Marmot elected not to put himself in front of those questions. Instead he opened himself to the questions that absolutely nobody in this game has asked him except me.

At face value, a refusal to heed the words of Glorfindel, the known Never Liar, when he says someone is confirmed town, even without knowing why, is hard to take. Answer your own question -- how does that happen in the head of a civilian who is aware of Glorfindel's moral stance on lies?

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 6]

speedchuck wrote: Mon Jan 29, 2018 11:23 am Given that Jay claimed alignment in the interests of not getting nightkilled (the only reason to claim IMO), I'd say that he's not siding with town. If he WAS siding with town, his claim wouldn't matter, as Jay is a valid hunter and siding with town puts him in danger of the nightkill again.
The potential of being night killed is exactly irrelevant to my claim.
speedchuck wrote: Mon Jan 29, 2018 11:23 am Or, of course, Jay is mafia and doing some screwy and pointless exercise for WIFOM.
You've gathered that much. :clap:

When I have people on my team, either civilian or mafioso, they are counting on me to live up to the standard that I have set in many past games. Particularly in the case of a mafia-aligned JJJ, when my teammates open their role cards at the start of a game and see my name included, they know that they are going to get a high-effort and dedicated teammate who will do whatever it takes to help them win the game. That's pressure that I happily shoulder. I don't betray that expectation by screwing around with Wacky WIFOM® or Goofy Gambits®. Hell, I even tried it in Currents (Vompatti role play) and couldn't last more than half a day phase because my teammates needed better play than that.

And when I am on my own with nobody counting on me, that pressure that doesn't exist. The freedom to be screwy is a beautiful thing, and it happens just about as rarely for me as the rarity of "JJJ draws independent role". It's therapeutic for a player like me, because playing The JJJ Way game after game after game can really be exhausting, and it's so much worse when there are two of them happening at once (with all the same people!). Thank goodness I have that freedom this time. The significant exception to this rule of indy conduct would be the Turf Wars prisoner when I felt that I truly owed the civilians something and played for them 100%.
speedchuck wrote: Mon Jan 29, 2018 11:23 amAll I can rule out is the possibility that Jay is 3P aligned with town.
All this stuff about "3P aligned with ______" is silly. An independent is aligned with him or herself. Everything beyond that is nuanced and situation-dependent. This is even more true in any game wherein the civilian win condition does not dictate the elimination of the independent. I don't trust that you're thinking this through as thoroughly as you want it to look like you are.
speedchuck wrote: Mon Jan 29, 2018 11:23 am TL;DR if Jay is 3P, we should ignore him completely. Also Marmot might be Sonja or Jax in that case.
That's a fair perspective for those who do not trust me. You do not trust me. You are not ignoring me at all. Indeed, you are making me the central focus of your present "hunt", including after you made this post.

Why?

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 6]

I'll address the rest of that when I'm not sitting in a classroom. For now I just want to muse over the fact speedchuck has suggested I am both a 3rd partier who claimed to avoid night kills (if I am not a civilian, the other possibility he considered), and also that he is willing to vote Wilgy because I might include one scum and one town among my low-poster targets (implying the presence of JJJ teammates). So essentially, I am either a civilian or a 3P or a mafioso.

:goofp:

speedchuck is Marmot's teammate.

Oh absolutely, information could have been manipulated.

Which means that for Marmot to suspect you with this evidence in the thread, he must assume the information was manipulated. We can grant possibilities all day long, but to disregard the evidence in favor if an inherently much less likely scenario of tampering or manipulation is nonsense -- it's plain evidence that a read is fake.

Critical thinking is the darnedest thing.

It's fun that in this incredibly fake effort to make me look like a scary boogie monster, your distrust of my reads is factually, objectively equivalent to a distrust of Glorfindel's reads -- the same reads he expressed with a hell of a lot more confidence than I have. To have this opinion, you are required by logic itself to have no care in the world that Glorfindel used the word confirmed to describe one of your suspects. You can't be fussed even a tiny bit that Glorfindel did a complete 180 when a night phase ended on your other suspect.

You're so fake. It's up the other people to see it as plainly as I do.

I've just provided a reason to believe that Glorfindel had information on lapluie which worked in her favor. Review that and tell me what you think. Then tell me why you suspect Long Con, and what Glorfindel's cries to the contrary mean to you if anything. Then tell me about Made.

voting nutella now

the fact that simon hasn't come in to defend himself, today, yesterday, last night etc etc etc makes a bit nervous tho. I'd be very sure that should he be bad his teammates would bus the shit out of him cuz easy civ cred. I feel like a civvie simon would be less likely to play defense than a mafia simon.

And I'm supposed to believe that Marmot really expected these people to change their votes? It's bullshit. He was being transparently fake. Kill him.

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 6]

It makes zero sense for Marmot to believe Glorfindel has a moral aversion to lying about his alignment, but no moral aversion to lying about someone else's alignment. That's nonsense. To defend him after he tried to say that is nonsense. Lynch the man.

Honestly...I 100% am scared out of my mind right now because I hate defending people so hard in games because I know it can come back to bite me in the ass. But I have to call bullshit on your claims against marmot. I think they are stupid and feel like it's my responsibility to tell you so.
He didn't ask "everyone" who didn't vote for Simon. He asked the specific few people who indicated that they would not vote for Simon.

The second part of the case is just confusing to me. He wanted people to vote for Simon (mafia) and not nutella (civ). I don't get how that is pingy.
I don't see how "ignore the pleas of the man who never lies" is either a strategy or a play style. It's a refusal to heed the words of someone you claim to trust when it matters most. That's yuck.

I don't really buy that he "wanted" people to vote for Simon. He was making that request of players who had said all day phase long that they were voting for nutella and not Simon. It was pointless.

Also this ongoing "Glorfindel doesn't lie" motto has been taken out of context. I said it early in the game, because Glorfindel doesn't lie about his own alignment. That this sort of behavior transfers to every word he says is opportunistic.

I don't really care about defending myself. He should burn, and so should his allies.
Horseshit. Glorfindel's refusal to lie is well-known as a moral choice. That means he doesn't pick and choose where he is honest. You're full of it. Get lynched.

I hate them. They may me crazy uneasy for some reason.
I don't object to someone resisting ties in general. So do I. I care about Marmot resisting that tie, and that's all I'm going to say about it. If you'd like a more general case:

Marmot refused to listen to Glorfindel, the guy who never lies, when he was screaming to prevent a Long Con lynch. Marmot just kept asking him "what do you know??" and "why??" as if those are answerable questions, all while leaving his vote planted firmly on LC's face. Fake.

Marmot "tried" to sway the lynch from nutella to Simon (civilian to mafia), but only by begging for vote switches from players who had made it clear all day long that they were voting for nutella and not Simon. Fake.

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 6]

Also, in case anyone is concerned about the token resurrection/recruitment combination -- I don't think you need to be. Refer to the "least favorite game mechanics" thread in the lounge:
Epignosis wrote: Wed Jan 27, 2016 12:15 pm Another, somewhat related one, is a secret simultaneous resurrection and recruitment to the Mafia, a civilian getting resurrected to the Mafia's team. Such a player almost certainly won't be lynched, and it makes for an easy victory for the Mafia.
I agree by the way. The intrigue and sorcery may be neat, but it is pretty much never balanced.

It frankly astounds me that anyone could read Lapluie’s ISO and deduce from that she is anywhere near Town. You said this of Jack:
JaggedJimmyJay wrote: Wed Jan 24, 2018 1:09 pm Jack is red because he continues to push dubious cases with a tone of exaggerated assertiveness while resisting other dubious cases with the same tone, and I question the legitimacy of any civilian mindset he has attempted to portray.
Precisely the same thing could be said of Lapluie (only I think it applies more so in her case).

Don’t get me going on Simon. There’s massive red-herring potential there. If he was Mafia coming in at the last second, surely he’d have nailed TSP’s coffin shut once and for all. But no, he voted for Lapluie which is an encouraging look in my view.

It would seem logical that any POE needs to focus on the LC and TSP wagons. THAT is where we should start looking.

In any case, this will be left up to you guys to determine. I believe that it would be cruel and inhumane of our Mafia team to keep me alive any longer in this game so I hope my game does end here in the next few hours. No one would listen to me when it counted, I don’t expect that’s like to change.

I can understand why you'd be perturbed given your strong civilian read on Long Con. Whatever brings you to that read, consider how others are going to approach Long Con without the same rationale in mind that you have in yours. He hasn't done very much in this game. He's flown under the radar. I think it's fair to suspect him in the absence of special insight. In lapluie's case, I am pretty sure Long Con voted for her in a tally which could have easily destroyed her. He moved to TSP in the end, but for a long stretch he was on lapluie. Play devil's advocate with yourself and assume lapluie is a civilian -- how is she likely to respond when an under-the-radar Long Con is trying to get her lynched close to EOD?

Now, consider your own role in this incident. You were loudly shouting for LC to be saved. You didn't want that lynch. Anyone who knows you well would be well-advised to listen to you on that front. Does lapluie know you? Does your reputation hold any weight with a player who has never played with you before? What about the LC voters who do know you and still ignored you? Would you agree that there is a more obvious problem with that picture?
Very well, Jay - you have my attention.

That's a fair argument. I would consider them both to be active at least in that they can send night actions. You'll note that Simon voted late in the last day phase, and for you.
I voted for Lapluie too and I was wrong. I don’t think Simon making a wrong choice particularly in that instance (sorry, Lapluie) wasn’t necessarily understandable.

You can see a clear transition between phases. On Night 4 he started with strong suspicion of lapluie, and even though he was willing to listen to my argument in her favor he didn't 180 it. When the new day phase began though, he was immediate in absolving her and resolute in defending her.

I'm not lynching that.

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 6]

Glorfindel was highly suspicious of lapluie until I talked it over with him. He seemed convinced by my arguments in her favor, though I was still surprised by his level of confidence in her after that point. I'll have to determine whether a night phase ended somewhere during that period to facilitate his having received information.

1. Civilian read. She had Glorfindel's strong endorsement, and I doubt she'd have handled Simon the way she did as his teammate.

Simon is the easiest bus on the board for any of his teammates. That's close to meaningless to me. Also note that he was asking people to move who would have never done so, after an entire day of debate and argument. He asked Glorfindel to move. That was never happening. I think he asked you to move. That was never happening.

Shitty luck for both of them, especially nutella who appears to have been Jax'd out of an opportunity to save herself.
