Re: Monkey Island [DAY 3]
What do you think of his assertion that zebra and Mac were performing a distancing spectacle?Epignosis wrote:In the past two games, Eloh was bad, busy, and bearing it. She also killed me in both of those games. She subbed out here.
For that reason, I don't think she's bad, and I don't think motel room 2 is.

Re: Monkey Island [DAY 3]
Okay so sorry for not ISOing early, I got bogged down in school then a drive to Louisville. I'm here now for awhile.
So do we know which team submitted the kills for which? Since the way I see it the team that didn't submit night 1 did on night 2 hitting DF an inactive, while the team who got Golden hit MP, both are seen as high profile high posting players. So they're a smart mafia team going after the town leaders. So I suggest our doctors ect target the high profile players during the night phases.
Sorry to see you go MP.
I'll still answer the point he made in his ISO but probably not tonight.
I might attempt a NKA of MP, but that is alot of pages with a fair amount of content, I do mainly think he was killed for posting so much.
I don't understand what the hell I just read re Zebra and Mac, it made no sense what so ever.
Though if Mac was on a bender then hung over perhaps he didn't have time to send in night actions the first night?
However, there is no evidnece to back that up, all I see here is Zebra out for blood for personal reasons not related to the game.

==========================================================================================================================
Day 1
This is an admittedly minor grievance, but I don't have anything to like in this post. The vague sentiment that my tongue-in-cheek town team-up comment "seems early" shifts attention in my direction but in a noncommittal and unspecific fashion.Spoiler: show
Here's sig's first meaty post of the game (fourth overall). He concludes that he had minor pings for three players, so I highlighted what he wrote about those players to compare/contrast with what he wrote about the rest.Spoiler: show
Although sig's thoughts on me and Mac were a bit vague, and I think those thoughts could be easily fabricated, I can see a potential link between his initial thoughts expressed here and concluding that they were minor pings. I'm having trouble reconciling sig's thoughts on motel room with a minor ping, however, since "seemed a little weird" is an incredibly vague version of a ping/accusation. This is potentially bothersome if it came at a point in the thread in which motel room was already receiving negative attention (note to self / others: investigate this).
Also, sig, where's that LC ISO?
There is an unexplained discrepancy in sig's posts back to back, which is a bad look. In sig's previous post, he said "Nacho is posting alot looking good, but I think we should watch him a mafia member becoming a town leader can be devastating", but here he says he can't shake his ping of Nacho. The ping he can't shake is also completely vague (gut read). This needs to be explained by sig ASAP, because there is nothing in either post that indicates a change of mind, which implies that sig lost track of whether he found Nacho a town or mafia read. I don't see how a member of the town genuinely could lose track of that. This is troublesome.Spoiler: show
I don't like sig's mention of "odd" twice in this post, because I feel like "odd" and "weird" and similar synonyms are easy ways for mafia members to manufacture suspicion without much substance. Furthermore, I find it highly dubious that odd behavior translates to suspicious behavior, as townies act oddly or irrationally often.Spoiler: show
Here sig doubles down on a defense of DrWilgy (in a previous post he said that Wilgy's behavior is 'normal meta'). I like his thoughts on Wilgy here, as he sticks his neck out for him, but I'm not sure how alignment indicative it really is. The rest of the post is full of noncommittal statements indicating no thoughts about whether sig finds anything alignment indicative of those players' behavior. Overall I don't feel much of anything about this post.Spoiler: show
Another vague post. Says motel room's post is "super weird", but doesn't elaborate upon it. Slightly bad look.Spoiler: show
Here sig elaborates upon his suspicion of me, which I feel is difficult for me to attempt to judge without some sort of bias, so your thoughts would be appreciated. He says he is eyeballing Wilgy voters (Blooper and Soneji) and motel room. I still find it bothersome that sig is continuing to bang the motel room drum. It's especially ironic given sig's subsequent post here:Spoiler: show
where he criticizes me for my "weak" vote after saying he suspects motel room all d1 with next to no reason. I find this incredibly suspicious behavior.Spoiler: show
I find it intriguing that sig says if I am mafia, he would like to look into lynching Wilgy, yet he defended Wilgy more than any other player prior to this point. This presents further reason for me to believe that sig is manufacturing his thoughts on players.
Votes for me based on being out of character yet simultaneously similar to another game (Scrimmage game). Not sure why I didn't find it off previously, but there is a bit of cognitive dissonance there. sig, if you can elaborate how my behavior was simultaneously out of character yet similar to my behavior in another game, that'd be great.Spoiler: show
Further alarm bells. He doubles down on criticizing me for my motel room vote when he previously said he suspected motel room and said he'd be okay with it. This is suspicious.Spoiler: show
Pushes suspicion of me further. Quin's post expressing dislike of this content makes an excellent point; sig's post implies that he doesn't care whether I am being genuine in whether my vote was out of self-preservation, only the fact that I didn't state that it was.Spoiler: show
I commented on this post at the time with basically "No". I feel the same way now. sig's "odd = suspicious" statement here is something I think is absolutely false, and he provides no substantive backing for his assertion.Spoiler: show
In response to Quin wanting sig's head, I expressed that I believed sig is the most likely accuser of me to be bad, but I stated three clear hesitations in heavily pursuing that train of thought. Perhaps I shouldn't have done that quite yet, since here sig comes back into the thread and basically says "yeah, what MP said". It could be that I did indeed hit the nail on the head, but this is also an easy way for a mafia sig to backpedal a bit and not have to provide his own response to Quin.Spoiler: show
==========================================================================================================================
Day 2
sig states that LC, Epi, and I all are town reads. sig's gradual change from strongly suspecting me to less so during n1 to not at all now, with no associated reasoning, again would be an easy thing to fake. I also find his thoughts on me tend to coincide opportunistically with sentiment currently in the thread, which lends more credence to the theory that he is manufacturing them.Spoiler: show
What is further problematic is that sig states here that he believes the mafia didn't vote at all or voted on a non wagon. This is a 180 from everything he was blasting me and Wilgy voters for the prior day, with no apparent reason for the change. Suspicious as hell.
Here are sig's thoughts on the lack of n1 kill. He argues against the inactive argument. I find this null, but thought it was worth highlighting in here.Spoiler: show
I initially felt good about sig's contribution here with an night kill analysis / ISO of Golden. I feel a bit less inspired now, since I don't think there is any reason to town or mafia read sig for this contribution, seeing as it could have been easily made with a mindset from either alignment. This is still the best post he's made so far though. It at least has the semblance of appearing as though he wants to solve the game, whether that's true or not.Spoiler: show
It is intriguing that sig is really downplaying his NKA ISO post. I'm not sure what to make of that.Spoiler: show
A continuation of the prior post, sig is waffly on whether his NKA ISO was helpful or meaningless. That's great and all, but at this point if he really cared about solving the game I think he'd start investigating some players.Spoiler: show
==========================================================================================================================
In conclusion, I would place sig in the orange (moderate mafia) section of my rainbow. There is plenty of reason to doubt whether sig's contributions are genuine, though I wouldn't say this is a slam dunk case by any means.
Please throw your thoughts at me regarding this analysis, especially since sig is typical mislynch fodder, and some of this was admittedly difficult for me to analyze 'objectively' given I was sig's biggest target of suspicion during d1. Where do you agree? Disagree? How are you reading sig?
Okay so I do tend to use words like weird and odd alot, but I'd say that isn't alignment based I just use that sort of wording when I'm unsure of someone. The other issues MP seemed to have had is that I was noncommittal and that's true, I haven't really been able to form any strong opinions on players, I'm starting to get more town reads/slight town reads, but most players are still null to me at this point.
For my read of nacho he on the surface seemed like a supertown player, however I was wary since I've seen mafia go supertown. The more I read over Nacho's posts the larger my gut ping of him became. This is still only a gut ping though.
I did defend Wilgy, however Wilgy's vote balanced out the votes against MP, so if MP was mafia it would make it more likely Wilgy was as well. However, I don't think MP is/was mafia at this point so my read of Wilgy based around that is null.
I didn't like MP's vote on motel room that is true, it is also true I was suspicious of motel room 1. I just found MP's reasoning for his vote and not saying he was doing it for self preservation to be pingy so I point it out.
I'll answer anymore questions in greater detail tomorrow.
As of right now I plan to look over Snow, Zebra, Mac, and Boom.
Zebra for her lack of content then weird behavior with Mac
Mac for being MIA during the first Night phase and because I actually forgot he was playing
Boom because he was very active and I gave him a light town read, but he seems to have gone under a little bit. The same could be said for Nacho so I'm looking forward to seeing more of his posts.
Re: Monkey Island [DAY 3]
LC does seem to be posting less then normal, however I haven't really gotten any mafia vibes off of him yet.Epignosis wrote:Long Con, are you a people eater?
What is the chance of someone like Snow gunning for active members? Since I think we might be able to narrow the pool down for potential mafia members. I think it is more likely whoever is hitting the active members is a semi active player. So I plan to go over who those people are tomorrow.
Zebra
She posted in smiles all of day 1 just because?
Why Quin? You never give any reason.a2thezebra wrote:I want to lynch Quin.
That's right suckers I can talk.
Also why if you wanted to lynch Quin did you vote Snow Dog? Why did you lynch Snow Dog anyway?a2thezebra wrote:But I already voted for Snow Dog who is also bad so #YOLO
She was wrong on BK, but also doesn't give any reasoning for why BK or Epi are civs. This isn't a good look seeing how BK flipped.a2thezebra wrote:Black Rock and Epi are civ
Zebra gets in a big smash up fight with Mac then posts this.
Again not explaining her vote or anything.a2thezebra wrote:Voting Snow Dog again.
So @Zebra why do you think
Epi is civ?
Why was BK a civ?
Why is Quin/Snow Dog mafia?
Right now I'm not liking what I see from Zebra's posts, I'd like some more content or explanation for why she reads Snow dog and Quin as bad. Also reasoning for why she is voting so early.
Re: Monkey Island [NIGHT 1]

Epignosis is bad. Discuss.
Mac what do you think of LC and Epi now?
Besides him clearing motel room (which was correct) saying I was a civ (which is correct :P ) and voicing distrust for LC/Epi, we haven't seen much from Mac yet. I'd his opinion on the people he had called out, but there is nothing in his post which seem mafiaish.
Re: Monkey Island [DAY 3]
I need to go to bed for real now, did a quick read over of Boom's post they don't look bad.
I'd like some opinions on quin? I had an early ping on him and I disliked his day 1 vote, but from there I haven't had time to read over his stuff in depth. I also disliked the fact that Quin had both me and Epi pegged as mafia along with BK, he votes for me bringing me closer to BK in votes and is still smearing Epi. After BK flips his opinion of Epi changes. There is the potential of some bussing here, he didn't jump on the BK wagon but he had her down as a mafia lean. However, I find it odd he had her down as mafia read along with both myself and Epi. He also defended BK by saying we shouldn't target lurkers and used that as his reasoning agaisnt Epi. In fact the more I think about Quin being a baddie the more logical it seems. I'll attempt to do a real ISO of him tomorrow.
I could see my vote going to Quin or Zebra.

Tell me why my case against you or Epi was disingenuous. I don't get the rest of whatever point you're trying to make.
After BK flips his opinion of Epi changes.
Why is this suspicious?

I had multiple people as a mafia lean. You and Epi were the only ones I'd made proper cases on. Obviously my vote was going to one of the two of you. There was no Black Rock wagon either. I believe she only had one vote at the time.
However, I find it odd he had her down as mafia read along with both myself and Epi.
Tell me why you find this odd.
He also defended BK by saying we shouldn't target lurkers and used that as his reasoning agaisnt Epi.
I didn't defend anyone; I specifically accused.

You posted this on Day 1.
Your reason for voting zebra then. It isn't very strong, but you immediately followed up with this.Spoiler: show
I disagree, my reason is strong enough on Day 1
You questioned the motives for the motel room votes. Neither reason is great, but I didn't like that you came up with a poor one for a Day 1 zebra vote, only to question another poor Day 1 vote (or rather multiple votes).Spoiler: show
I didn't come up with a poor reason for zebra. I had already said I may vote for low poster and she had only posted emoticons.
Later on you posted this, and I only just now realize I'm uncertain what you meant.
You toyed with an MP vote near the end of the day. Per this post, did you mean that you want to see how many votes motel room got, or that you were considering voting for him to see his lynch-flip?Spoiler: show
Still, you wound up voting zebra anyway.
I never considerdd motel as a vote. Mp I was unsure on. I don't actually remember what i meant
You also voted zebra Day 2. Yes it's consistent, but is it sincere? Additionally, you placed a vote that put zebra and Black Rock closer together in the lynch, which considering BR flipped bad doesn't look good for you.
I'm torn on you overall Snow Dog. I see one part of your playstyle that I remember from playing long ago. The fact that that pattern has carried over to now (what almost 2 years later?) suggests that you're playing your "normal" game, and looks good for you. There's also another post you made this game which to me screams civ (or potentially the opposite). I know that's an ambiguous comment, but that's how I feel.
Who are you looking at today?
I've gotta run, but I'm going to look at MP's ISO of sig when I get back.

Nacho: You were impressively vocal Day 1 when motel room got lynched. When Day 2 came and a pirate was lynched, you were absent to the extent that you didn't even vote. Why? Is the charade too much to maintain after Day 1?

Re: Monkey Island [NIGHT 1]
Sig, I thought that this reasoning was pretty weak; not a whole lot of things actually happened Day 1, and so expecting MP to have some awesome great reasons for his vote seems pretty unreasonable, especially when you didn't have any real scumreads other than MP.sig wrote:It seemed to have come out of nowhere and was an easy scapegoat for a day 1 vote, I do believe that day 1 can be the easiest to catch mafia on weak reasoning, so they're more likely to find something dumb, to throw a vote on and that was something you could throw a vote on. Like I said it seems to be a lack of reasoning and not something civ MP would do.Nachomamma8 wrote:Drunk darts have failed.
I will probably catch up when I get home. Sig, why were you bothered by MP's motel room vote?

If the implication here is that I was psychic and avoided the thread because I saw my pirate friend was getting lynched and I knew there was nothing I could do to stop it, then I accept your implications fully because that would be awesome.Epignosis wrote:Nacho: You were impressively vocal Day 1 when motel room got lynched.

If the implication here is that I would be unable to post Day 2 in a mafia game where I was able to freely hunt the other team because of loss of confidence or a crippling sense of guilt, then I do not accept your implications because they seem a little silly.
If your desire to paint my absence as something alignment indicative, then my recommendation is that you accuse me of intentionally lurking because I was trying to avoid being nightkilled; otherwise, my recommendation is to sit back, relax, and enjoy the show before I'm dragged off to work.

I don't really like sig's continued push on MP because it doesn't really make any sense.
I've had one of those before!!!DrWilgy wrote:I ate a carolina reaper and made myself sick -__-Metalmarsh89 wrote:So uh hi, where is everyone?
From the MP-related exchange, I think Epignosis and Long Con come out looking very, very town - sig not so much. And, I know that we've probably passed this point, but if MP was scum then I will be simultaneously depressed/impressed; sorry for ditching you at the end of Night 1.
I think that Epignosis and Long Con's pushes looked town because they took the time to explain why exactly they thought that MP was off; Epignosis's explanation of why MP's view of him seemed inconsistent with the frustration directed towards him made a lot of sense and Long Con's explanation of buddying (in particular, the point where he went "if you were scum and you hadn't been caught for buddying it would be excellent, but unfortunately for you, I'm extremely sensitive towards that type of thing") felt extremely town. Sig was gone for the majority of the exchange with MP, and, when he came back, sig's only response was to go "yeah MP does look town by responses"; to me, that looks like sig was trying to push MP when he looked like a juicy target and then decided to walk back on it when it became clear MP was going to be townread. If it was a legitimate thought process, I think we'd see a little more evidence of the process itself.

Re: Monkey Island [DAY 3]
I'm looking forward to Soneji's posts!
I think that sig's analysis of the Golden kill looks genuine - I don't think that sig is on the team that shot Golden, which is information that is pretty useless but fun for post-game scenarios!

Re: Monkey Island [DAY 2]
About the missing PMs. I agree with you. I am of the opinion that the first night kill was likely blocked or something. For no member of a mafia team to send a kill is extremely unlikely, I think llama was refering to town PMs most likely.Nachomamma8 wrote:I have my eye on DFaraday in particular; I find it odd that he popped up and had input on the night vote (which isn't indicative of alignment in any way at all) and yet hasn't really given input on anything else.DFaraday wrote:I'm sorry I missed the vote.

Re: Monkey Island [DAY 3]
Scotty's posts talking about how he doesn't exactly know what a good night kill looks like and general thought process of why he wants to lynch who he wants to lynch also looks pretty solid.
This post isn't exactly a good look for Boomslang (who I've mostly liked before this); the whole "I don't oppose Black Rock lynch, but here's a case on someone else!" is sketchy on its own.Boomslang wrote:I don't oppose a Black Rock lynch, but I think we have a little more time to hunt before committing to a target. Reading over other people, I think there's a case to be made against Wilgy. Starting out with the bold not-checking-my-role gambit, then devolving almost immediately into fluff. He hasn't had a single post of substance all game, other than a "gut read" of MP as bad and claiming to "frown upon those that miss the vote" despite missing it himself. That continual jokey language of helping townies in "their" plight also seems too cute. I'd really like to see something solid out of him, and soon.Epignosis wrote:I voted for Black Rock.
Who opposes her lynch, and why do you oppose it?
Re: Monkey Island [DAY 3]
Fact: Black Rock had two posts.Epignosis wrote:sig wrote:Epignosis wrote:On what basis do you believe both kills were submitted?sig wrote:I do think our mafia members either didn't vote or voted on a non wagon avoiding both major lynches. I do however, believe night kills where submitted and I don't think we should just start lynching lurkers on the off chance an entire team forgot/wasn't around to submit a kill.
It is rather rare for kills not to be submitted isn't it? It also requires very little effort to submit a kill. If only one player could do it I might be able to see that argument, however it is very unlikely a whole team was so inactive that they didn't send in a kill.
Okay Quin I was wondering if you had any other reasoningThe question of how many constitutes "lots" may have no answer. However:thellama73 wrote:Night ends in an hour and I am still missing lots of actions.
Fact: An hour before the Night ended, the host says he is still missing lots of actions.
Fact: One person got killed when there should have been two.
Fact: Two of those three protective roles are Night actions, which places them within the realm of unsent actions.
Fact: The phase ended at an earlier time than most phases end on this site.
Fact: I have witnessed eight people on two different teams all fail to submit a Night 1 kill.
Fact: Black Rock was Bob.
Fact: LeChuck is the pirate who kills Nightly.
Fact: The Cannibals kill Nightly (i.e., the kill isn't attributed to one particular cannibal).
If LeChuck is responsible for sending in the kill (llama's answer on the matter was deliberately vague), then I'm inclined to believe that the Cannibals killed Golden and LeChuck is somebody who missed out Night 1 but got back on the ball Night 2.

It's the middle of the day for many of us, dude. You know this. I'm only on because it happens to be a day where my planning is in the afternoon. And it'll be a holiday soon. And it's Day 2. Cool your jets :P
As for your sig review, what pings me more than anything about what he's been saying is his being so resolute that an entire mafia team couldn't have missed its kill last Night. This sort of thing has been happening in several games lately on this site. It would be one thing to offer his counter arguments, but to so staunchly oppose it as a non-possibility? Nah. Looks defensive. Pings real bad.
I still want to knock off inactives/slight inactives. There is no reason except inactivity to vote BR, so that's cool with me. I want to know where Wilgy went. You say zebra has played a detached and gut-read game in the past, but what she's doing right now is just detached without even gut reads. It's just...randomness. Chaotic. It's the same reason I voted Wilgy Day 1 - zebra's behavior is not civ, whatever she's doing.
So I'm good with voting any of those (includes sig, but less so than the inactives), and I need to get back to work. I'm going to mull over it a bit (maybe ten minutes or so) before I make the final call.] aubergine
Look, I know right now is the middle of the day, I'm referring to all of Day 2. There has been next to no discussion of anyone other than inactives for the past nearly 48 hours, and that's what bothered me, not just the lack of current content. Anyway, I was just venting. Feel free to ignore that nonsense.
Help me out here; you lost me a bit with your thoughts on sig. Why is it that his staunch opposition pings you? Like, walk me through the mindset of why a mafia sig would do that, that's where I'm lost.
She provided gut reads in saying BR and Epi are town and Snow Dog is bad, for example, but yes, they're completely unsubstantiated. The only problem with just lynching everyone who behaves in such a way (your bolded/underlined sentiment) is that just because someone is behaving chaotically does not mean their role card is mafia. It is up to us to make a determination based on the available content. I don't think lynching inactives blindly right now will serve us anything particularly productive; if we happen to hit a member of the mafia, great, but it's essentially flipping a coin.] aubergine
True about a chaotic player not necessarily pulling a mafia role, but their behavior doesn't help civs. A lynch vote for zebra would not be a blind vote for an inactive - it would be voting for someone who I think is exhibiting non-civ (and I'll just outright say it - mafia-or-indy-chaotic) behavior.
What I'm saying about sig's opposition to the idea is that it sounds defensive of inactive mafia behavior, i.e., steering people away from discussing inactivity as more than a possibility for an entire mafia team because he doesn't want us to look at them. As in, perhaps he is part of an inactive mafia team, and is defending it because oh shit, they all missed their kill chance last night, better cover it up. That's what it looks like when the behavior of late on the site points to the opposite of his stance.
And I think the discussion of inactives needs to happen - personally, I'm tired of seeing it ignored and seeing active players lynched so early and then having a dead game, so I'm happy we're going on that vein this game. Hell, it's encouraging ME to post! (Well, that and I also have more time recently to play than I have in the past couple of games.) Lynch inactives, encourage participation through group force :P
With that, I'll vote zebra today, even if it's for pressure. Gotta finish grading these quizzes, dammit.] aubergine
This post reminded me that in the mafia championship scrimmage game, sig as a baddie was pretty adamant about it being a certain set-up beyond what he should have been given the info we had at the time. Him denying the likelihood of mafia not sending in their kill is fairly similar. sig pinged me earlier for mainly only going after those who made cases on others, an easy thing for mafia to do, since instead of making genuine reads of behaviors they just claim that others have weak cases and that makes them scum. I looked back through some of his posts at that time but he had contributed more standard reads than I remembered from what I looked at. A more thorough ISO is in order.
More on the way.] aubergine

Re: Monkey Island [DAY 3]
Enjoying MP's case on Sig now! Again apologies for ditching you, definitely would have liked to have you around to bounce thoughts off now.
Post linked here (hopefully!).
I didn't really think there was significant enough suspicion surrounding motel room until the end of the day where opportunism is something that I'd be on guard against; I think that the lynch was mostly me pushing it through because of a feeling. I think the fact that he had him as a little weird is fine enough reasoning for early game.
I disagree with you that him saying that people should keep focused on me despite me being active and posting and being unable to shake a ping of me is contradictory; saying that people should stay extra vigilant of me only makes sense if he has some concerns on me while talking about being unable to shake a ping of me backs that up nicely.
I don't generally push people for using certain words too much; the way people talk is more often a personality tell as opposed to anything else in my opinion.
I liked the Wigly defense in the same way you did, and I agree with sig's general idea that he's a remarkably easy vote (which is why Boomslang trying to redirect to him yesterday bothers me). I agree the defense doesn't make Wigly likelier to be town, but I'd argue that it doesn't really look like sig has a townread on him here.
I agreed that the Motel Room post was weird, so can't exactly rag on sig for agreeing.
The point where sig came down against MovingPictures a bit unreasonably when he was suspecting motel room himself (and didn't really explain it all that much) is a strong point to me; wouldn't mind seeing sig's response to it if he hasn't given it already.
I'm also in complete agreement about Sig's push on MovingPictures (and his subsequent backoff) being weird and unnatural looking, so nothing new or special there.
The quick and dirty summation of this case (and my read on sig) is that I don't think his early game looked bad at all; I thought that his read on me seemed genuine enough (I'm not sure that mafia would try to rock the boat in that particular situation), but his push on MovingPictures seemed fake for a variety of reasons (why was he so bothered by the motel room vote when he himself suspected motel room before? why was movingpictures not mentioning it was a self-preservation vote when he made it a big deal? why did sig drop the motel room suspicion so quickly?); I think there's a good chance he flips scum here, but I'd definitely like his responses to those things.

Re: Monkey Island [DAY 3]
As far as the Zebra read, I think there's a little more to parse from it than MP pointed out.
For one, I liked the "I think that Llama fucked over mafia last night and I'm happy about it" string of emotions is a bit town; it's a weird thing to theorize in the first place and I don't think that if Zebra did it in order to get townreads then they would have put it in the emoticon language. I think that Llama's completely unsubstantiated pushes (and quickvote of Snow) are things that come from mafia; I'm sure the argument that Zebra was afraid to make a real vote is going to rear its ugly head once again but those posts are pretty clearly going to perturb Quin and especially Snow Dog and won't endear them to anyone else, so I'm not sure what they're doing if mafia while if they're town it's pretty obvious they're just fucking around and going their own way.
Mind you, this isn't the *most* confident read since I've never played with Zebra before but Zebra would have a pretty insane scum game for this to be coming from Zebra!scum in my opinion.

Re: Monkey Island [DAY 3]
With Boomslang, I agree that his early Quin suspicion looked town; the conviction he pushed it with seemed very genuine and I'm fairly confident that Quin and Boomslang aren't on a scum team together.
However, I do think that his redirection from Black Rock to Wigly outweighs that a bit; I wouldn't be as bothered by it if he redirected, to say, Quin but it seems like he completely forgot about his suspicion there and decided to press an easier target instead which is not awesome.

MP's ISO on DFaraday reinforces my scumread there, though; would be happy with seeing them dead today.
Re: Monkey Island [DAY 3]
Essentially, it's one down, five to go. The Men of Low Moral Fibre and the Pirate Leaders aren't required to be dead, according to the win condition. The cannibals aren't really independent, despite the label- they function exactly as a second mafia.
The ideal lynch for Day 3 would be LeChuck, because there is a chance that would remove one of the two kills from play. Unfortunately, Black Rock gave us little to work with.
I'm posting the votes here for myself.

Is that something that's been confirmed or is it something that you're assuming re: pirates?Epignosis wrote:Essentially, it's one down, five to go.

I thought I remembered Llama saying something to the tune of "it was left over from a former draft of the game"?
Re: Monkey Island [DAY 3]
Question for you, Nacho. How did you know that were not killed Night 2?

Indeed.
Shame on llama for not updating the front page with the correct information.thellama73 wrote:I think that's a remnant from an earlier draft of the game. The civvies need the pirates and cannibals dead to win. If only Herman, the Head, and the Cannibals are left alive, the game will end and the cannibals will win.DFaraday wrote:Llama:
The role post says the civvies only need Lechuck, Bob, and the Cannibals dead to win. Does that mean the game will end if the other two baddies are still alive?
Also, the civvies need the cannibals dead, but the cannibals can win even if Herman Toothrot and Head of the Navigator are alive. Does this mean that the game will end if any cannibals are alive and only Herman and Head are remaining for the civvies?

Epi, I knew that DFaraday died yesterday night (I have checked the nightkills), but MP dying stood out in my mind more than DFaraday dying did.

Re: Monkey Island [DAY 3]
Epi, what do you think of the point I brought up against Boomslang?
Re: Monkey Island [DAY 2]
If you knew DFaraday died, then your recent posts about him make no sense.Nachomamma8 wrote:Epi, I knew that DFaraday died yesterday night (I have checked the nightkills), but MP dying stood out in my mind more than DFaraday dying did.

Re: Monkey Island [DAY 2]
I read the night post. I knew that DFaraday died along with MovingPictures (hence my "all my friends are dying" post that showed I was aware of the night post). When I was catching up today (after a full night's sleep), I forgot that DFaraday was the one that died along with MP.Epignosis wrote:If you knew DFaraday died, then your recent posts about him make no sense.Nachomamma8 wrote:Epi, I knew that DFaraday died yesterday night (I have checked the nightkills), but MP dying stood out in my mind more than DFaraday dying did.
