Re: MAD MAX: Day 10
My main suspicion of you has been that I have seen you take the thread and twist it to fit suspicions that don't make sense to me and work them towards votes. That they were towards me in one lynch as colored my view, so I'm taking it with a grain of salt. But, that said, I was also a counter lynch to a confirmed mafia, so it's also relevant. That said, at this moment, I don't think you're bad.
And Quin has read civ to me throughout the game. I'd be somewhat surprised to find Quin to be Mafia, although i don't rule it out of the realm of possibility.
At this moment, I see Dom as the most likely baddie
linkitis: That post was in response to her post in response to one of my accusations about how she was playing her role. I wanted to make it clear that it wasn't personal. I have deep respect for her as a person. But, well, she was evil in this game, so yeah.

Re: MAD MAX: Day 10
The drawback of that is that I've now pulled myself back all the way to the point where I'm doubting every thought that I have in this game. Dom just looks like such an easy lynch, and Quin is so... sinister.

Re: MAD MAX: Day 10
INH is the last baddie, completely lucked out with the lynch save and immediately knocked off the real Silvertongue before he could say a word.

Re: MAD MAX: Day 10
It does but it doesn't answer the question. I'm sorry, I'm not sure there is much more you can say. But I'm still left feeling unconvinced. If this is all honest then I appreciate it and it's all understandable. But in this game right now it looks like the answer of a baddie who has no place left to hide. I wish there were more people in the game so I could ask you for reads or something, but we're here and there's not much room to work with.LoRab wrote:Sloonei, I have played a terrible game.

We basically got 2. I understand why a baddie would kill the one whose vote matters, but why would I, as a baddie, kill Jay?
"In a way that is useful." I'd like to know what that means, Dom. If you're still reading this massive wall of text. Maybe I should mention in BIG COLORFUL LETTERS that I am asking you a question, Dom! And I'd like an answer, if you're capable. What were you hoping to get out of me here?

AGain, why is Epi fully responsible for knowing who he's voting for the second his top suspect dies but you are not?
After this, Dom goes on a mini crusade where he starts demanding I answer his question, but I am still unclear on why this was such a huge deal or what was unsatisfactory about my many responses. When I pointed out to him that "who are you gonna vote for" is just a routine question I ask people in this game, he swats it away by saying the context is different, and continues to go about demanding something out of me that is equal parts unclear and unfair. At the time I thought Dom was just flustered, but in retrospect he looks to simply be aggressively opposed to and stubbornly refusing anything that can be said against him. And I don't think that's a good look. I'm still not familiar with what past-scum Dom looks like, but I have seen plenty of scum performances that look like this from other players.
For the sake of cutting this post off and getting some thoughts into the thread, I'll leave it at this. If you don't feel like reading everything I just typed (and you certainly don't have to), my conclusion is this: Day 6 Dom looks like an over-defensive baddie who was unwilling to engage honestly with both Quin and myself. I left out his later accusations against Quin, but I think we're all familiar with them by now. My hope with this post was that I could gain a more neutral perspective of Quin and Dom, but I just came out of it feeling more strongly that Dom is bad and, therefore, Quin is good. I'm putting my vote on Dom, but this decision is by no means final.
But I'm not.
I really thought we settled these questions, but I'll go through this once more.
I kept pushing this because I didn't trust you at the time. I thought you might be trying to get Epig lynched because you saw low participation-- easy lynch. I was very wrong. I've been very wrong more than I've been very right in this game. I wanted to see if you could provide the same information Epig was providing you. You did not, in my opinion, do that. We have since agreed that there was some sort of misunderstanding.
Does that answer your question?
What would you say has been the strongest conviction your townie self has held in this game and why?

Re: MAD MAX: Day 10
There is one aspect of Day 6 that is bugging me about Quin, and that is that initial suspicion post where he says Dom was suspect because Mac had suspected him. It's been covered and we know that Quin acknowledged his mistake, but I'd still like to know if we could identify where that mistake originated. Has that been explained yet?

Yeah. A few pages before you asked me the question 3J had reposted his GTH read analysis where Mac had scum-read Dom. That and the dialogue that the two of them had brought me to that conclusion.Sloonei wrote:There is one aspect of Day 6 that is bugging me about Quin, and that is that initial suspicion post where he says Dom was suspect because Mac had suspected him.

It did.

Because Dom isn't. Other than that, you haven't impressed me in any notable way. I'm currently remedying that, but I'm looking at LoRab's posts first, because there's less of them.Sloonei wrote:Why are you so sure I'm town?

Re: MAD MAX: Day 10
In reading LoRab, her interactions with Eloh make it quite clear that they do not share BTSC. I still firmly believe that. I think the possibility exists for her to share BTSC with Glorfindel, because her reads on him are often skewed with uncertainty or weak defence based on Elohcin's misremembering about Glorfindel's not-replacement, seen in these posts:
However, I also feel strongly that LoRab and Dom do not share BTSC, and in Dom's case, there's reasons to believe that he could be teammates with either Eloh, Glorfindel or Epi. So I come out of this still confident that LoRab is civ.

No, I'm saying that because Dom and LoRab don't have BTSC, and Dom has more mafia BTSC links than LoRab, the last baddie is less likely to be LoRab than before.Sloonei wrote:Of course Dom and LoRab don't have BTSC. There is only one baddie left.

Re: MAD MAX: Day 10
Probably the most notable part of Sloonei's and Elohcin's interactions is Sloonei's Days 1 & 3 votes. During Day 1, Sloonei placed a vote on Eloh, moved it around a few times and then voted her again at the EoD. The original vote for Eloh was at a point where the opportunity for an early bus existed. However, his final vote was the first on Eloh. Sloonei was the first to put a vote on LoRab on Day 3, and was among the first to construct an actual case against her. I could interpret this as one baddie creating a counter wagon in order to protect their Eloh teammate. There are some strong signs that would indicate Sloonei being Eloh's teammate.
Sloonei appeared to be consistently 'meh' about Glorfindel until around Day 6. I can understand that given that Glorfindel wasn't really 'here' until around Day 4. Sloonei addresses the 'Glorfindel won't answer 3J's question' case once or twice, even suggesting that he appreciates the 'I refuse to answer that question' stance - but his read on him is developed from a hundred things outside of that. He also doesn't entertain the town-read for Glorfindel based on Eloh's misrecollection to the same level as LoRab does. I think it's unlikely that they're teammates.
Sloonei's read on zebra evolved from a Day 1 vote to a top(ish) town read up until she was replaced. I don't see any dialogue between the two that make me lean any particular way in regards to whether they could be teammates. Sloonei held a relatively strong level of suspicion for Epi after he replaced back in. Although, of all of Sloonei's reads that I'm familiar with I'd say that his Epi read fluctuated the most. He tried to garner interest in an Epi lynch on Day 6 through multiple posts over the course of the day, so I have my doubts that it was just an attempt at distancing. I'd say a teammate relationship here is feasible.

I urge everyone to keep an open mind in the last couple hours. I am in agreement that Dom seems likely to be bad, but Quin is by no means clear and if he is bad, he's been riding the easy train for days. Continue to press him if you can.

I really thought we settled these questions, but I'll go through this once more.
I kept pushing this because I didn't trust you at the time. I thought you might be trying to get Epig lynched because you saw low participation-- easy lynch. I was very wrong. I've been very wrong more than I've been very right in this game. I wanted to see if you could provide the same information Epig was providing you. You did not, in my opinion, do that. We have since agreed that there was some sort of misunderstanding.
Does that answer your question?
What would you say has been the strongest conviction your townie self has held in this game and why?
I was really wrong, but I really thought I was right.

ok ignore day 2 as well as mac's final read on me too.

If this is all honest then I appreciate it and it's all understandable. But in this game right now it looks like the answer of a baddie who has no place left to hide. I wish there were more people in the game so I could ask you for reads or something, but we're here and there's not much room to work with.LoRab wrote:Sloonei, I have played a terrible game. I will admit to it. I have made plenty of mistakes. I have let out of game frustrations aggrevate me in this game. I have been wrong about just about everyone. I look bad.

I think you killed the confirmed civilian, not your biggest supporter.Dom wrote:Did I systematically kill all of my suspects until now and then decide, nah, I'll kill my biggest supporter [read one of few people showing open mindedness about my status].
We basically got 2. I understand why a baddie would kill the one whose vote matters, but why would I, as a baddie, kill Jay?
"In a way that is useful." I'd like to know what that means, Dom. If you're still reading this massive wall of text. Maybe I should mention in BIG COLORFUL LETTERS that I am asking you a question, Dom! And I'd like an answer, if you're capable. What were you hoping to get out of me here? On the one hand it seems you're just antagonizing me and trying to prove a point about my treatment of Epi ("why is Epi fully responsible..."), but in the previous sentence you suggest you are looking for specific game-relevant information out of me. Which is it? What was your motivation here?Sloonei wrote: This doesn't answer the question in any way that is useful. AGain, why is Epi fully responsible for knowing who he's voting for the second his top suspect dies but you are not?
After this, Dom goes on a mini crusade where he starts demanding I answer his question, but I am still unclear on why this was such a huge deal or what was unsatisfactory about my many responses. When I pointed out to him that "who are you gonna vote for" is just a routine question I ask people in this game, he swats it away by saying the context is different, and continues to go about demanding something out of me that is equal parts unclear and unfair. At the time I thought Dom was just flustered, but in retrospect he looks to simply be aggressively opposed to and stubbornly refusing anything that can be said against him. And I don't think that's a good look. I'm still not familiar with what past-scum Dom looks like, but I have seen plenty of scum performances that look like this from other players.
For the sake of cutting this post off and getting some thoughts into the thread, I'll leave it at this. If you don't feel like reading everything I just typed (and you certainly don't have to), my conclusion is this: Day 6 Dom looks like an over-defensive baddie who was unwilling to engage honestly with both Quin and myself. I left out his later accusations against Quin, but I think we're all familiar with them by now. My hope with this post was that I could gain a more neutral perspective of Quin and Dom, but I just came out of it feeling more strongly that Dom is bad and, therefore, Quin is good. I'm putting my vote on Dom, but this decision is by no means final.
But I'm not.

I see you're still ignoring the fact that my read was not researched.

Quin, you are now backing it up with a back and forth. I thought it was just the GTH? You're waffling on this.

Dom, can you summarize why you think Quin is bad?
