I never stated that I wanted to or not cfd. Just wondering Sigs Ideas.
No I'm not Scotty. If you could fully respond to the questions I've asked I would be appreciative.

Re: Mafia Championship Scrimmage
VOTE A2THEZEBRA
Willing to move my vote to Wilgy as well, but wanted to get it back on the board and we are less apt to see a hammer if I place it on zebra. Plus she looked worst in the teammate analyses and I want to push a bit there. Will be gone for a couple of hours but will check back in again after a movie.

Re: Mafia Championship Scrimmage
@MP - The MM/IAWY linkages is the first one that I've read through and actually felt I've disagreed a bit. I would call it teammate compatible, but I don't really feel like there was enough there to call it teammate indicative
Day one interactions were about self-preservation not IAWY preservation, like when he told me not to shift my vote to IAWY it was because it would put him back in a tie for first. His day two rainbow list was right at the start, so it's hard to know if he would have had a null read by end of day. And most of the stuff in the day two was far more about analysing you than analysing IAWY.
I'm still keeping my eye on MM as a potential teammate and I think it can be said that there is very little evidence that he is not a teammate of IAWY, but its not compelling to me to make me feel like he is a teammate.

Re: Mafia Championship Scrimmage
Wow, MP, I completely disagree on the sig iso. It looks SO BADLY like he is trying to set up an MM lynch to come straight out of an IAWY one, all the way through days one and two. I don't mind the hard defending, but the set up of MM is strong. He even suggests the vig take out MM.
I never like this pattern 'I don't think x is bad, but if x is bad, y is bad too'. It looks like a way to take a civilian out behind a teammate. I use it that way, if I can.
It makes me feel worse about sig. Conversely, if sig was bad it would make me feel a little better about MM and zebra, since they seem to have both been strong pushes by him.
Now I'm conflicted about my vote. I was hoping I'd come out of that one agreeing with you.
Having said that, I went back and read the zebra one again and... that looks just as bad today as it did yesterday.

Re: Mafia Championship Scrimmage
Somehow I really didn't fully understand Soneji's case on sig until reading through your iso on him.
I remain convinced soneji is town.
I'd like to hear soneji's thoughts on sig at the moment. Zebra's too. Anyones, really.
I think maybe I've been wrong about sig and I'm seriously considering a sig lynch.

Re: Mafia Championship Scrimmage
Okay so on day 1 I believe MM wouldn't vote for IAWY to save himself, he did closer to EOD, however he quickly switched to Frog when he was still leading in votes. It seemed to me like he was unwilling to vote for a teammate.Golden wrote:Explain to me why you felt 'if IAWY is bad, MM is his teammate'.

Re: Mafia Championship Scrimmage
Golden are you mafia trying to bandwagon onto me and save a teammate? Since you also led the CFD onto Frog day 1.
I'd be happy to address your suspicions, but I don't really see anything? Besides the MM/IWAY thing, which I did stop pressing eventually since it would seem my case was a little weak and as I said earlier I was tunneling on him.

I definitely feel strongest about zebra with respect to zebra and MM being the bottom two anyway.

sig has been using a lot of "potential mafia team" and "if X is bad, then Y is bad" logic; I wouldn't say it was specific to MM and IAWY, and I wouldn't say it's out of character, but I don't know.
I do agree though that if sig flipped bad, it would make me feel a bit better about MM and zebra, though inevitably I'd still consider distancing.
I did get tired last night, maybe I'll go back and look at it again.
Are you around now to discuss?

Re: Mafia Championship Scrimmage
I isoed sig yesterday and felt good. I read your connections thing and I felt bad. Perhaps, if I isoed sig again in light of your points (eg he does a lot of if x, then y) I might feel good again, so perhaps I'll do that.

I still think sig is probably town and that he ate crow with respect to IAWY, so I don't feel comfortable lynching him, but that's just me. I'd much rather lynch zebra or Wilgy, even Scotty. I could be wrong though, and I don't want us to be too split today. I think we need to stand united.

So I felt IAWY would be the most informative even though I suspected him pretty hard. Even though I'm not one to lynch for "information", whom do we think would be the most informative lynch today?

I'm sort of leaning towards zebra right now. I don't think anyone can say that I and others haven't tried to engage her but she honestly doesn't seem to want to engage. Whether or not it's just because I pissed her off on day 2 or what... I don't know. But her messing with the vote yesterday seemed more actively harmful than Wilgy.
I just hope zebra isn't town vig because I really want to take Wilgy, I really hope the town vig will take Wilgy tonight if he isn't lynched.
linki @MP - honestly zebra, more than wilgy. I think. I think.
Wilgy seems to be taking an entirely 'wifom' approach to the game, so I don't think anything meaningful would be gleaned out of his posts.

Re: Mafia Championship Scrimmage
MP's day one re IAWY is pretty clean, highlighted by the following quote (which I can't spoiler because it has a spoiler in it). MP is one of the few people (along with silverwolf, I'd say) who was able to find specific suspicious content in IAWY's posts rather than merely express a scum vibe from him. It looks a lot cleaner than my own content on IAWY, for example.
MovingPictures07 wrote:I'm willing to take a step back from ika and give him some room to breathe and contribute, and follow you here. I feel like I'm not accomplishing anything with this vote; I've discussed ika ad nauseam.Silverwolf wrote: VOTE INAWORDYES
This is a low content poster I'm willing to wagon. I don't like his RVS Soneji vote and the fact he hasn't posted much of substance or done any game solving or any reads or anything really, despite being here earlier.
VOTE INAWORDYES
I agree with what you've said above. In addition, I made the following observation on IAWY earlier:
MovingPictures07 wrote:Spoiler: show
I'm pinged here by inawordyes's declaration that he is playing to his own meta. Dom caught me in Arkham Mafia for saying this same thing. It indicates the mindset of someone who is purposefully making posts with the intention of playing to an existing standard, which can be defended against with the mere declaration that it's "my meta".
That's about all else I have on him. Hard to believe he has 10 posts. What do you (and others) think of that?

Re: Mafia Championship Scrimmage
And this post followed by an immediate vote also looks godo for MP.
In fact, his approach to IAWY on day one has to be one of the most convincing signs that he is not IAWY's teammate.
I've read 6 pages of MP posts and thats enough for me for now. Moving on to IAWY posts.

Re: Mafia Championship Scrimmage
The show ends at 10p so I will be unavailable except for like minutes at a time. I'm sorry I feel so useless in coming to the big boys table, but again I trust Golden and MP's judgment even though they have been running the thread.

Re: Mafia Championship Scrimmage
Can someone else please cast your point of view on my suspicion of Scotty?
I've asked multiple unanswered questions, and pointed out several non civvie actions from Scotty, so other opinions would be appreciated.

Re: Mafia Championship Scrimmage
Thoughts on IAWY relationships:
The bit in orange would lean towards MP and Soneji not being teammates. He seems to have been most in dispute with them (something borne out by looking at the other side of the conversation). His point on zebra doesn't seems teammate neutral, rather than indicative. It's in IAWY's interests to find the backlash on zebra odd regardless of zebra's alignment.
This, from day two, makes me very slightly lean away from MM being a teammate, I think in particular given IAWY and MM were the two with votes beforehand so it behooves IAWY to make MM look a little dodgier. The fact it took him two bites in response to MM to do this also helps me lean away from it being an overnight plan for him to suspect MM.
I think it's worth noting that IAWY is contributing to the 'MP is just trying to look like he's contributing' push.
This is much more indicative of zebra being IAWY's teammate, particularly the bit I underlined. I feel like this is a soft defence of a teammate, without appearing to be directly taking a view on zebra's alignment (but implying I'm willing to haphazardly take down goodies).
There are a few more posts from IAWY that lead me even further down the track of MP not being a teammate. No point quoting them all. This one is a good one, though.
Then he goes on to question all his null reads but there really isn't anything there. He votes for each in turn but there is little that can be said for each in way of engagement, I think, except for his engagement with me. I'm not reading into his final rainbow list because wifom.

Re: Mafia Championship Scrimmage
Well no that's hefty accusation, considering I was a top lynch candidate on Days 1 and 2, and am the third-highest poster in the thread. Under the radar indeed.Scotty wrote:I glanced through MP's exhaustive (whew you outdo yourself sometimes, sock) and I found myself agreeing with most everything said.
In regards to MM, I do feel like he has flown under the radar.
Zebra and DrWilgy are my top two candidates, though I haven't decided which one yet. Given the current situation, I would vote zebra so as not to create a tie.Scotty wrote:So now that you don't have votes on you to stress you out, where are you leaning to vote?Metalmarsh89 wrote:I do have a couple comments about my Day 1 behavior.MovingPictures07 wrote:Summary
- MM failed to take a hard stance on IAWY throughout all of d1 and d2. MM places IAWY in the null placement of both of his rainbow lists.
- For d1, MM stayed mostly silent about IAWY, but he did at least commit a soft defense in systematically dismissing the d1 IAWY wagon formation on a couple of occasions.
- MM interacts a fair amount with IAWY on d2, but doesn't seem to use any of it to form any read of him, which is the strongest point against him. I think this is relatively indicative of a teammate relationship; if it were true, it means that a teammate MM avoided taking any stance on bussing or hard defending IAWY, which is perhaps the most common teammate treatment in early game stages from my experience.
Conclusion
I would call MM's interactions with IAWY teammate compatible, and further, I'm willing to call them potentially teammate indicative.
What do you think?
I've explained it to a couple of people already. Since I was also a leading lynch candidate on Day 1, I was using my vote to keep myself out of the lead, and encouraging others to do the same. The less votes being moved around at EoD, the less risky it would be for me.

Also Soneji needs to get his ass back like 70 hours ago.
