Battlestar Galactica Mafia - GAME OVER

[Epignosis]

I'd like to talk about 3J. He is laying traps rather than provoking honest discussion.

His vote for me and the post before it leads me to believe that he wanted to escape the accusation that he was avoiding the wagons (a silly accusation, that, but one that has gained increasing currency these past several months). He allowed the votes of others to dictate where he voted, and I would like to explore a scenario that has heretofore passed without discussion: That JaggedJimmyJay cast a vote to save Ricochet.

So the leading wagons are Ricochet and Epignosis, two of the strongest townies on The Syndicate. So much pressure!

VOTE EPIGNOSIS

I think he'd be a better lynch than Ricochet, and it might just be for the best under the circumstances anyway. I really hate the way this EOD has worked out.

Why was I a better lynch than Ricochet?

[Long Con]

So say we all!

SO SAY WE ALL (love ice cream)

So Say We All.


So, Ricochet's face was on the top as well. Does this mean that he was voted to be NK'ed along with Ika?

Didn't Golden already say that the stories weren't to be taken at face value

LC: If you would have been online in time, would you have offered the next scheduled spot or picked one of your own?

The only way I would have done either of those things would be if I were convinced that neither Metalmarsh nor anyone else was there to do it on time... and I would have done the next scheduled square.

So, Metalmarsh went off the schedule and voted for E3 without notice. Indiglo, Scotty, Ricochet, sig, I am interested to know what you think of that, since the four of you lost your cool a little when I went off the expected plan.

Thank you early bird S~V~S for hitting up that 5:49am timeslot so awesomely. Who is up for 11:49, in exactly two and a half hours?

How I feel about Marmot's square choice should be patently obvious, after I told him "BOSS SORTIE SENDING MARMOT". It was awesome, and I loved his reasoning for choosing that sector. He was scheduled to cover a sortie, and he covered it perfectly.

The comparison of your reaction to my action compared to MM: you value WHO is doing it more than when or where.

[juliets]

I am here! I would appreciate everyone stop posting at :45 so I can get my message ready and then send it without linki.

[Nerolunar]

I will be going to bed soon, so Im going to place my vote.

Vote ObscureAllure

I missed why you suspected her. Please help a sista out and redirect me so far behind everything.

OA voted Polo without reasoning and left. It was a shot in the dark for me, but eh. Day 1.

It turns out that she was away and didn´t have time to play, which I completely understand. Her recent posts are alright too, so Im null on her now. Wouldnt vote for her again in some time.

Btw guys, I have been thinking about the proposal that Epi might be Boomer appearing as Athena. If this is true, we should let Cally target Epi after we find and destroy the ressurection ship. That way we can be sure about it instead of wasting another lynch.

I value not dicking around.

I value the teamwork we have created with our schedule. It allows us to see who is going to do what, and then analyze how they handle their volunteer assignment.

Also, you went rogue, and went totally OFF the checkerboard pattern. Marmot stayed on the checkerboard pattern.

It feels to me at this point you are doing this to provoke a reaction out of me. So this will likely be my final reply on the matter. If you, as you have now said, don't plan on dicking up our schedule again, it's a moot point anyway - which is why I haven't been harping on it. But you sure have. If you do dick up the schedule again, I will personally view it as a hostile act against the human race and will react accordingly.

Up next at 5:49pm EST we have no one scheduled. If anyone wants to cover it, feel free to speak up.

LC, would you like to take that timeslot? If you're unavailable I will do my best to cover it if no one else volunteers.

[Nerolunar]

Well done Juliets And so say we all, I completely forgot ...

Im entertaining the idea that JJJ might be bad. He seems to strive to look P50, but it feels forced. Thats only tone though, I can barely remember anything he has said. Although that might be a point in itself. Im feeling good about Rico though.

What does everyone think of JJJ?

Yes.

[sig]

My understanding for this is that the President of the Colonies made a law saying whoever died N1 needs to vote for whoever the Admiral wants, so basically the admiral has an extra vote.

My understanding is that the President didn't know ika was going to die, and thus made a law to try and control him in some way. The Admiral will most likely not receive an extra vote because ika died.

Also who created this pattern we are following? How do we know they aren't mafia.

And when I went off-pattern, you called me a Cylon.

You are bad. If I had to vote right now, I would vote for you.

Ah that makes more sense.

No see there is a different from switching the pattern, to just jumping in and picking any number which is what you did.

So say we all we say so.

Active game continues to be active. I'm on page 41. I'll see if I can knock out three or four more pages over lunch.

For the record, if we haven't already found the rezz ship, I can cover the 11:49 a.m.-ish shift on any given weekday but weekends are out for me.

*deep breath before diving back in*


linki- I see we haven't gotten lucky yet. Feel free to add me to the schedule somewhere down the line.

Linki -

I am not currently comfortable with JJJ. And I believe there are several others who feel the same way. He has been missing several details, and that just doesn't seem like careful JJJ.

I believe Epi mentioned the possibility of JJJ casting a vote to save Rico... I'm not sure how I feel about that. But I definitely felt like JJJ was holding his vote to see where others voted. Which, many times, points to mafia.

[indiglo]

I will plan on D4 for my night time sortie, to continue that long diagonal, unless anyone has a problem with it.

I need to log off for now, but will be back popping in and out.

[juliets]

I will take 5:49 pm tomorrow May 11th just let me know if we are still doing diagonals or going back to the sweep or doing something totally different.

LC, would you like to take that timeslot? If you're unavailable I will do my best to cover it if no one else volunteers.

I cannot take that timeslot, better line up someone else. And please, take anything I say about the "Long Con Rogue Action" as only half-serious. Truly, it was all in fun, and anytime I bring it up, it's for fun as well. I think it's silly to threaten me with actual baddie suspicion for anything surrounding that Rogue Action, because it really has nothing at all to do with being bad or good or human or Cylon in the game.

As for me "going off the checkerboard pattern"... GOOD! Even though people have been, like, "Oh, I'm diagonal, off the pattern!" or "I'm a marmot, look how I went way down there!".... it's still on the original pattern that DrumBeats proposed!!!

So far, I don't recall seeing anyone but me being concerned with the possibility that Drum is a baddie/Cylon who knows that the rez ship is on square A4, or any of the "black" checkerboard squares that we're avoiding. I'm not accusing him, but to not even discuss that the ship could be on a black square is, to me, allowing a big fat blind spot into our plan. So I have absolutely no remorse about choosing D5, I would do it again in a heartbeat. And if you all can't understand and agree with that, then this is NOT a plan that I am on board with, and I'll sabotage it with something smarter whenever I damn well feel like it, for the good of the human race.

No real read on him yet for me. What's P50?

[Long Con]

It would help if we knew what shape the ship is.

I get that some of you are treating this as a game of Battleship, thinking that perhaps the ship is 4 squares long, and we need to hit it four times on those four adjacent squares to kill it. I get that, and that's why checkerboard.

I do not think it's Battleship. I think the rez ship is in one sector alone. I think this because... these are sectors of space!! Like, big. Imagine a ship that's the size of our solar system - that's the kind of thing I would imagine taking up four squares. It's insane! The ship is a large ship that resides in a super-exponentially larger sector of space.

And yes, this is a game and these quasi-'laws of reality' don't have to apply. If Golden wanted it to be a Battleship game, then it's cool despite grinding at my sense of scale and reality.

He was using a sock named Prisoner 950 in Turf Wars. He was as supertown as anyone can get, and he is nowhere as close to that here. To me, it looks like he is trying to imitate the tone and line of play he exhibited in Turf Wars, but it doesn´t look genuine imo.

Silverwolf - I believe all you said was "No" but for real...

Do you believe that Dee just simply didn't use her power last night? Or was blocked?

Otherwise, I'm inclined to believe ika was indeed a Cylon.

Silverwolf - I believe all you said was "No" but for real...

Do you believe that Dee just simply didn't use her power last night? Or was blocked?

Otherwise, I'm inclined to believe ika was indeed a Cylon.

That's what I'm saying. To me, the only rational way to use Dee's power is to activate it every night until it works, and I choose to have faith that Dee agrees and is not irrational. I just don't see a downside... use it every night until it saves a human, OR pretend you're psychic and just choose to use it on Night X and hope a human is getting kill-targeted that night.

[Long Con]

And as a message directly to Dee: I'm a human, and I'd really dig it on a personal level if you would use your power every night, if for some reason that Silverwolf may believe, you didn't use it last night. I think I speak for all the humans out there when I ask this of you. So say we all!

[Matt]

For those of you who don't believe there can be a mafia consisting solely of humans...

I can. Don't know who the other members would be, but I can see Zarek and Felix headlining a human Mafia group, for sure.

If we're strictly following lore from the show, I'm rethinking my stance on a cylon/mafia mix team. Why? Because Number One, John, hates all humans, all of 'em.

Rico, Long Con, indiglo - Theories on other humans who could possibly be on a Zarek/Felix mafia?

indiglo - If I've missed it, sorry, but can you give a short list of susses and/or players you're feeling good about?

Linki - Yeah LC, I agree. I know I was the lone voice against your idea, but once you pointed out that the saved person wouldn't be announced, then I thought "well then why wouldn't Dee do that then?"

AND even if ika was human, that does not clear him from being mafia IMO. There are 29 players in this game, well enough for two separate mafia teams.

[Silverwolf]

Silverwolf - I believe all you said was "No" but for real...

Do you believe that Dee just simply didn't use her power last night? Or was blocked?

I have no idea. Blocked or didn't use it is my guess.

Otherwise, I'm inclined to believe ika was indeed a Cylon.

No

[Long Con]

Sorry for the multi-post, but I just had another thought: how could ika be a Cylon if the rez ship still exists, and ika has not been rezzed?

[Scotty]

So say we all.

RIP ika! See ya in another galaxy!

At this time, I need to make a vote and since I'm not sold on any one person and its day 1, im going with the most suspicious low poster, and that is DFaraday. He has given no other reason for being absent and has given nothing to the thread.

Voting DFaraday.

you should quit d1 voting df for low posting.

at this point - it's as null as if I randomed or of MM self voted.

No I will not. It's not just a vendetta against DF or the low posting. It's a mix of what he posts and what he doesn't post. I found him the shadiest of the low posters for his lack of usefulness to the thread or letting us know where he was or what he was going. It was one post, I know, but just from the tone of that one post on a day 1, I didn't like it. Sorry you don't agree with my day 1 voting strategy.I'm sure your vote was more informed.

So Say We All!

RIP ika iywg. The conscription thing is intriguing :hmmm:

This post has less content in it than my checking account, and daddy needs new shoes.

[snipped]
It is almost my opinion that Silverwolf is likely civilian, because of meta. As far as I understand, she would only remove ika if he would have read her bad (which according to his claims, he would have been able to do so within 2-4 pages of this game). Plus, at no point did she gave me the impression that she'd find it conceivable to trick ika, as a baddie, with the exact town tells that ika would expect of her. If Epig wants to recap or state further his lynch case on her, I'm open to hear it, but I'm starting to envision their antagonism as civ-civ, at the moment.

The fact that Epi came out swinging for Silver after his flip made me really pause. If Epi is not aligned with the bad cylons (if there is a difference) this could be a suspicion with merit. Why didn't Epi go after ika, who so valiantly stuck his sword in the proverbial stone of cylon innocence? Silver agreed with ika, but wasn't as outwardly flippant about it, maybe in more soft defending ika.

I wouldn't expect an ika NK as something Silver would do unless ika was gunning for her- he was in her pocket, so to lose him would not be a good take for her. Epi may just be wrong in his assumption.

BUT I can see Rico killing ika to quell the beast (since they both had opposing viewpoints) and Silver allowing Rico to kill ika in an attempt to get him on his back. If Silver is on a different side than ika, I wouldn't put it past her to kill him before he figures out her game.

I see Rico worse in the scenario, because I still want to believe Silver is good.

[snipped]
2.2. I also noted bea taking a stance on Scotty's vote for DFaraday the other day and I incline to side with her. DF's low activity is certainly no uncharacteristic trait of his and his catchup posts are as generic and unpingworthy as I'd expect from other Syndicate members. Usually when the thread goes rollercoaster mode early on in the game, such members will just not how much of an issue it is to try to catch up. Of course, DFaraday is more then welcome to shift gears right now, but his Day 1, from my perspective, was benign and I would question Scotty why he handpicked DF out of several other lowposters.

I've caught DFaraday before on little more than this, and, again, his 1 post did nothing to make me feel good about him. I don't feel like I have to explain this choice with no concrete info, but I can elaborate if that will make you feel better.

Post game it is fair game, but ongoing is not, imo. If you avoid mentioning it specifically, like say "I have see X do this when bad"; without saying where you saw it, that should be fine, though.

Ok.

I have seen Zebra appeal to meta in her hunts when bad. It only heightens my perception that her voting BR in Day 1 based on meta was a bit shoddy. It only heightens my perception that she might be bad.

I do not rely much at all on meta. There are some things that remind me of the way they played previously, but I find that it is not always an evidential reasoning for alignment. In this game, I'm actually leaning civ on zebra.

Makes me wonder if the checkerboard pattern starting from A1 was thunked up by a cylon that knows the ship isn't located in the underlined pattern, thus giving them more time to be invincible...

So Say We All!

So wait, we do not get to know the identity of those killed? That's going to be a pain moving forward.

Yes. Are you curious about whom you NK'd hmmmmmm?

He could be a Cylon who was on board the Galactica, and he wasn't close enough to the rezz ship. I could be wrong but I thought the Cylons had to be close enough to the Rezz ship in order to be rezzed?

I'd say it doesn't matter much anymore...I mean that's what I WOULD say if it weren't for the likely possibility of human resurrection in this game!

[JaggedJimmyJay]

I'd like to talk about 3J. He is laying traps rather than provoking honest discussion.

What traps have I laid, and how is this comment relevant to what you said otherwise in this post?

His vote for me and the post before it leads me to believe that he wanted to escape the accusation that he was avoiding the wagons (a silly accusation, that, but one that has gained increasing currency these past several months). He allowed the votes of others to dictate where he voted, and I would like to explore a scenario that has heretofore passed without discussion: That JaggedJimmyJay cast a vote to save Ricochet.

When there are leading wagons, I tend to pick one of them. This is something I have said plenty of times in past games that you've played in. People can agree or disagree with the strategy, but it is definitely nothing new. I think avoiding the primary wagons is usually just a waste of a vote, because it ensures that one's vote will have no impact upon the outcome. As the day phase progressed towards its end, the top wagons emerging were you and Ricochet.

Why was I a better lynch than Ricochet?

Did I save Ricochet? I guess you could say so, sure. I thought you were more suspicious than he was, and I think that ought to have been clear given the discussions that were fielded. I spent a lot of time talking to you and talking to Silverwolf for the sole purpose of taking a side in that argument, and I took hers. Ricochet wasn't someone I had much interest in lynching at all.

There was also the bit where you asked for votes to be spared the rest of this game (and I understood why). That made my choice pretty easy.

[JaggedJimmyJay]

My opinion of what ika is: dead.

Moving on.

[G-Man]

Now I have to get work done (because I'm at work) and I have to organize my notes. Don't go adding 10 more pages on me now! :P

[JaggedJimmyJay]

I am not currently comfortable with JJJ. And I believe there are several others who feel the same way. He has been missing several details, and that just doesn't seem like careful JJJ.

What are the "several details" I have missed, and why does my apparent carefulness or lack-thereof mean something to you?

I believe Epi mentioned the possibility of JJJ casting a vote to save Rico... I'm not sure how I feel about that. But I definitely felt like JJJ was holding his vote to see where others voted. Which, many times, points to mafia.

Yes, I was holding my vote to see where others voted. I only get to vote once in this game, and I waited until it was time. In games with changeable votes, it's quite common for me to place late votes in the exact same manner -- except it will be a moved vote instead of my first vote. When I am unable to coordinate vote movement, that means I have to judge the tally based upon exactly how it stands and then make the one call I think is best under the circumstances. That's what I did.

Sorry for the multi-post, but I just had another thought: how could ika be a Cylon if the rez ship still exists, and ika has not been rezzed?

He could be a Cylon who was on board the Galactica, and he wasn't close enough to the rezz ship. I could be wrong but I thought the Cylons had to be close enough to the Rezz ship in order to be rezzed?

Ok, that is one valid theory. It is clear that being aboard Galactica vs not being on board is a factor in this game.

Wait, tho. Athena was on board the Galactica and was rezzed.

When Epi was lynched, we hadn't started the mission yet.

The last square that was officially checked was D5 before ika was killed. Perhaps D5 was too far away from the Rezz ship? In that case, perhaps we should be checking off all of the A's and B's first before anything.

Btw I'm spit balling here. Nothing I'm saying I even fully agree with, just spit balling.

Well done Juliets And so say we all, I completely forgot ...

Im entertaining the idea that JJJ might be bad. He seems to strive to look P50, but it feels forced. Thats only tone though, I can barely remember anything he has said. Although that might be a point in itself. Im feeling good about Rico though.

What does everyone think of JJJ?

No real read on him yet for me. What's P50?

He was using a sock named Prisoner 950 in Turf Wars. He was as supertown as anyone can get, and he is nowhere as close to that here. To me, it looks like he is trying to imitate the tone and line of play he exhibited in Turf Wars, but it doesn´t look genuine imo.

These are the standards I am held to.

No, I'm definitely not playing as hard as I did in Turf Wars, where I fininished with 1,100 posts in only about 6 cycles of play. I don't have the energy to be that guy in every single game. The "imitation" you're talking about is bunk, I am imitating myself. I'm me. This is how I talk, and this is how I play. What about it strikes you as insincere?
