Sorry in general to everyone for being so incredibly quiet. I’ve had some super overwhelming work things going on that have just killed my enthusiasm for a lot. I wasn't expecting it to bleed into non-work things when I signed-up but that obviously wasn’t the case.

No sweat at all! I liked your presence in the thread, and real life always takes precedent over silly internet games.

I hope you enjoyed the experience!

Trying to read a mafia game without familiarity with the lingo can’t be anything but endless confusion.

sig was forced to vote for you, which effectively ended the game.

I was surprised you never thought about using the Ion weapon on Myo to maybe keep this thing going a bit longer.

... oops. I forgot I had it. I bought it so that it would never come into play and then put it out of my memory.

Meh. I was frustrated that I was forced to vote for LC yesterday, but I was never catching nutella anyway so it’s moot.

But we also have vote values to consider. That could swing the dynamics in any direction. Hopefully Myo is vulnerable after the last few phases of damage.

There’s no reason I can’t be, from your perspective, but I probably wouldn’t bother pouting about the exposed wolves if I was.

It is myo and mac, quite plainly.

Myo seems likely to be a bad lynch fmpov.
Why?
Same reason I thought Jiwon was a bad lynch. Too easy. No opposition to it. Too obvious. All that stuff.

I think if anyone profiles as the busy bee mafia it's LC here.
Jesus Christ, you're the Pirate. Huh. I bet everyone else knew it before me.

Nah, I had a hunch but it took until this moment for me to be sure.

Why can’t the game that has languished for days on end have a lazy mafia?

NOT TO MENTION that that point itself, if applicable, is the most incriminating thing out there against Myo.
yes. "Myo was roleblocked" is the closest thing to substantial evidence we collectively have to go off of.
Not what I meant.

What I meant is, that if Myo thought she couldn't discuss information she knew (such as "Myo tried to kill someone and was blocked on night 2"), then the lack of discussion is extremely incriminating. If it weren't true, then there would be no prohibition against discussing it.

this feels too close to a gray area for me.

I struggle to envision a world where myo is town.

Based on the theory that ted blocked her the night we had no kill.

I do not understand mac’s reaction to this suspicion.

Masticating

I’m willing to give this novel “information” idea a try.

Another round of pin the tail on the donkey tomorrow then?

“Why would I kill nanook?” x2 is the most compelling piece of evidence in the game to this point.

JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Sat Jun 06, 2020 5:33 pm General prompt:

Pretend the Jack lynch doesn't exist. What are your reads on Mac and nutella?

I think they’re both still town. I hardly awarded nutella much town cred at all for the jack lynch.

JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Sat Jun 06, 2020 4:01 pm Ima be real gang:

I have no “confidence” that Jiwon is mafia (or anyone else really). I could make a “case”, if you could really call it that. I’m in a place where, for some reason or another, I haven’t the first clue what to do with this game — and a mafia Jiwon would help me to understand why. She’s in my POE pool and has engaged in bizarre voting behavior that could suit a mafia agenda, so that’ll have to suffice.

I’ve got nothing else beyond “maybe ted jailed a Myo kill”. Shrug emojis for days.

Yeah, basically this. Part of the reason I’ve done nothing in here is because the suspects are, for the most part, all of the people who haven’t posted a ton. We’re just playing pin the tail on donkey right now.

I don’t assign it enough weight to remove him from the POE, but I agree that it’s not meaningless.

nutella wrote: ↑Fri Jun 05, 2020 12:47 pm I don't mind Sloonei spreading the scrap votes, but let's be real, his day voting record is abysmal. He remained on the LC wagon in the very fast Jack move, perhaps thinking there was still a chance, and it kinda looks like he had TMI on the town lynches and avoided responsibility for them. Maybe I'm reading too much into it, or it's too scummy to be scum, but the pattern isn't inspiring.

mafia sloon doesn’t give a shit about “tmi on town lynches”

JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Fri Jun 05, 2020 7:33 am - Jiwon has voted for scrap 4 out of 4, but for a lynch only 1 out of 3. Whacke.

- Sloonei has never voted scrap to a majority scrap winner.

- sig has literally never voted for scrap.

Is there something wrong with not voting for the winner? I wanna spread it.

Well no, he's dead and was revealed to be town. Right? I'm not misreading that?
No that's right. I don't know what you were trying to say in your post. You seemed to suggest you had some kind of hunting work you wanted to do though, so I'll leave you to it.
My opinions haven't changed. Apparently I was the only one to find him sus. He's the top ranked for town points according to your chart, which is indicative of why he was killed. I don't really get that since his comments really don't scream town to me when I read though but whatever.

Who else doesn’t scream town at you?

His primary focus was on Myo though you are right about that.
He was a jailkeeper. So he wouldn't know whether the person he targeted was the killer or the survivor.
True that. I think he targeted Myo. His first post on day 3 was an empty vote on Myo.

Did ted’s position on myo change from days 2 to 3, or was he suspicious of her prior to the no-kill night?

Best of luck to all playing in the other game at the same time. Can you at least give a quick rundown on what your overall impression/ultimate reads on those players were coming out of those isos?

Not much changed. I can see sig as bad more easily because he looks very lifeless and a bit defeated from Day 2 on. Jiwon is a mystery in general. I'd vote for sig first of those two.
