Hmmm you’re welcome sprityo

[VOTE: sprityo] aubergine

There day 1 vote stood out to me so for now I’ll vote here.

I think we, and by we I mean someone who isn’t me since jeez life is busy, should keep the D2 voters in a POE.

Also probably worth it to see who voted off wagon D1. I’ve always found day 1 wagons to be rough as mafia, not much manufactured suspicion to go off of and you don’t want to vote for town.


Also if Thunal or Nutella is mafia the other is as well.

Because I'm not buying "he was killed for his reads" when he had zero thread influence at all

I think that's quite the silly idea

My first thought was lack of hard reads = no traces for NKA, this is just as viable though and I think it’s a strong possibility that mafia have a role cop given it’s closed.

I’m also going to assume we had a group role block last night and it was mafia role. They failed a kill D1 + non town voted off so if they’re trying to get momentum it makes sense to use roles up front.

Also I’d not be shocked if we collectively were on the right track last phase leading mafia to burn some powers early vs loose them with a vote off.

Scotty wrote: ↑Wed Mar 12, 2025 8:32 pm Also rip TSP that’s a bummer of a role to lose.

What a weird kill. Probably tried to go rando to avoid the protection like Night 1.

I haven’t done an NKA yet, but my initial thought is there’s nothing he said that could be tied to mafia so he was a safe kill.

Also I’m very tipsy, potentially drunk. Been on a bourbon/rum aged wine kick and I always forget I can’t drink it like I do normal wine. SO please ignore any spelling errors.

Also @Epignosis you gotta try some and when you love it idk give me a prize (it has to be a positive prize) :P

Poll yesterday was my ability... didn't really think it was that hard to guess it was me all things considered but I guess so

It was not randomly generated I picked the names on it

I didn’t catch that at all.

Why did you pick those four?

Not a huge fan of their content or day 1 list. And we’ve got a pretty limited pool here.

I’ll attempt to ISO Pyxxy and Thunal today and see what’s up.

Definitely not voting Roxy, which I already said and while SVS could be mafia I’m not confident in that.

I pretty much claimed my role and my play around it should be clearing.

sig wrote: ↑Tue Mar 11, 2025 5:14 pm Also it’s pretty wild that Thunal and Pyxxy are both on Roxy and having convos around that especially since it’s under the “mech” banner.

Maybe they’re both mafia

This is just not really a thought that makes sense. That would be some pretty wild theater for no discernable gain and I have no problem bussing when I need to.

I don’t hold any stock in role claims/hints that can’t be verified, especially in a closed game.

why

They’re not tunneling me hard core , but did throw my name out. Which at least used to be a pretty standard mafia tell vs when they’re a civ and tunnel me like crazy.

I don't think it's pyxxy anymore. It probably took me longer than it should have to move off of him, but I kept having trouble acting.

But you do think it’s Roxy?

[VOTE: svs] aubergine

should we make it even more chaotic then

Not a huge fan of this switch right after I broke the tie.

Why SVS?

The mech talk right now makes zero sense and makes me very suspicious of people trying to mech scum read one of the four without giving any real reasoning

So not voting for Roxy or SVS today.

I’m caught up but can’t promise I retained much from today in fact nothing is really sticking out to me one way or the other.

I’d say gut wise Thunal looks worse.

Roxy wrote: ↑Tue Mar 11, 2025 11:44 am I am not going to be making any sort of lists ever again.

They:

"Don't mean anything"

"Are a word salad"

"She doesn't believe what she is saying"

"It's just blurbs that mean nothing in the context of a game"

"They are scary and cold"

ETC,ETC,ETC


but <3 to all

Okay imma go ahead and town read Roxy lol

Kinda wanna make this a 3 way tie and see what happens

I’ll add though one of the active solving people is probably mafia.

Random day 1 thoughts based off my catch up

1. Falcon is looking very good he’s a solid civ read.
2. Scotty is engaging and seems civvy
3. Not a fan of this wagon on me, I know it went away, when I had only posted fluff, seems like a safe area for mafia to sit.
4. Abi is probably mafia.
5. SVS is either power wolfing or civ, but I seem to recall she doesn’t power wolf often
6. Michelle has pocketed me
7. I’m civ reading Roxy, which probably means she mafia.
8. What does “snowed by” mean? Why do we keep creating new lingo
9. Thunal EOD 1 POE is horrible. It’s basically low poster/low hanging fruit. Zero chance someone who’s actively hunting isn’t mafia.

This feels like a fake thought. Like saying hmm to appear to be thinking.

[VOTE: sig] aubergine

I agree with this actually.

It’s as if he pulled those reads out of fortune cookies. There isn’t really a link or a strong context of those suspicions beside ‘I’m just gonna name something here’

I just have *strong* memory of sig usually succumbing to the D1 misyeet a lot in the past. Like, I had a mantra that if I think sig is bad, he’s probably good; and if I think he’s good, he’s also probably bad, but also maybe mostly good

[VOTE: sig] aubergine

It’s not a sexy vote but he’s a bit too blendy at this point in the day for my liking and I’m down to roll the dice

When I first read that, it made me think, wow, when was the last time sig played, since I think that kinda used to be the mindset re Falcon, and it really isn't anymore. So I didn't think much of it, but i could see it that way, too, that's he's a vote looking for a safe victim.

It’s legit been a year since I played last game was March 2024.

Finally a wagon i can get behind

Preface: we should not do a D1 sig yeet. History says it’s a bad idea and this is not the vision of success if we are wrong.

But I’m down to sit here for a bit longee

Very belated OMGUS read for both Scotty and Abi

I will say having read nothing this could be a third party power?

We had one flip it’s feasible to have one more, maybe some sort of kill X role style thing

Cape90 wrote: ↑Tue Mar 11, 2025 3:15 pm I hope to see sig and PA check in, I think at least one of those is town. Would be wild if both are mafia and one of them used this role and then towny infighting became a thing.

Surely that's not what's going on

Right?


...right...?

Sig is here still not caught up, but is making an effort shortly. I’ve got nothing to do with the current situation.

And making me want to cook is really hard

You’re not gonna believe this, I just made some eggs and toast

It was very yummy

I got a nice breakfast today. 2 eggs, 2 toast, 3 bacon, and homefries: $6.99!

Wanna adopt me? Cheap breakfast and a pathway into Canada win win

Or was she less likely?

I know it was one or the other but can’t remember which.

Maybe don't use that tell then.

Psh I’ll use all the nonsensical tells tyvm

Not caught up, the weekend got away from me unfortunately, but plan to catch up today.

Rip Lime Coke, but a third party going down isn’t a bad thing so meh.

No death plus a limited poll is interesting. I’m assuming we had some role action last night for both.

There’s something in the Abigail-Michelle-Wilgy dynamic

Wilgy?? Weird include.

I mean such that i believe this group feels off. Wilgy is currently voting for Michelle. Joke vote? Maybe. Michelle left him out of her little read list, which shows he’s not even on her radar which is interesting considering he’s voting her, joke or not. Abigail readily agreeing with Wilgy offhandedly that sig is an SK, feels buddy buddy
Michelle and Abby buddy buddy also feels off

I like Scotty’s point here.

Take some civ points.

Michelle wrote: ↑Fri Mar 07, 2025 10:31 am A few thoughts:

Abigail is town
Scotty is townish
Roxy same
Brad is ok-ish

The rest

sig (not as SK, but as mafia)

Pretty sure I disagree with this entire list, especially the last part.

Does anyone remember if mafia Roxy is more likely to post emoji?

Or was she less likely?

I know it was one or the other but can’t remember which.

The thread has a weird vibe.

I think someone in the SVS/Scotty mix up is mafia. If I had to pick I’d say Scotty.

Why? You may ask, the answer is because I said so.


Actually I think this is a case of SVS noting something that wasn’t scummy, but the player is mafia, and mad they got called out.


Ooooooor I’m totally wrong

I don’t understand why LC is getting votes.

Not much to go on yet, I’m seeing standard entrances from everyone except Wilgy no doctor claim so hmmmm.

If I was hard pressed to find a mafia member I’d say Falcon since he’s always mafia

I’ve never gotten Indy in a GoC, that I remember don’t fact check me, and alas that trend hasn’t been broke..

I am here! Rusty, not eating eggs, and totally clueless of what most people here meta is but here none the less.

Also I’d really really reaaaaalllllly like a win this game so I can come back for next GoC without having to play again so let’s do it.
