If they do that then we have a lead, don't we?
Go suspect someone or make a read. I don't care what you think of my approach.

Yes, a lead within six other people.

Re: [DAY 3] Seinfeld Mafia
I'm using the tools in my toolbag to try to progress my reads, specifically to challenge my town reads.
You're complaining that my methods aren't working effectively enough for you. That's useless to everyone. Do something productive or get out of my face.

Re: [DAY 3] Seinfeld Mafia
Half the folks in here haven't said a word since the sun came up. Big Stein's gonna start barking up trees if this continues, you hear me! This will not stand! Peterman, why shouldn't I vote for you? Costanza, what's on that devious mind of yours? Uncle Leo? Hello? Is this thing on!?

What happened to the Soup Nazi voters? What changed your mind?
First of all, Tim is a re-gifter. A re-gifter people. Of a label maker. Does anybody use label makers anymore?
Why is he asking about the Soup Nazi? Doesn't his job prohibit stuff from touching his teeth? Does he make meth after hours? Doesn't meth ruin your teeth? Inquiring minds want to know!

I'm going to borrow methy dentist guy's direction and rephrase the question:
Jerry, why do you think Elaine Costanza died instead of you or me?
In regards to Estelle not answering and then dying, if these events were related all it means is that the mafia can read. However, I wouldn't think that my question would prompt a kill.

Re: [DAY 3] Seinfeld Mafia
Do you think it would be unwise for power roles to claim at this point in the game?

Re: [DAY 3] Seinfeld Mafia
I guess I should share where my head is at if I am to ask this of others. Joining in Day 2 I was very much fixated on Elaine and Jerry. So much so that I've decided to take a step back and review other leads and questions I have.
I'm curious about the Soup Nazi and Stein voters from day 1. I'm reviewing them now.
I could currently vote for Costanza or Elaine.
Jerry, I'm unsure what to think. Truth be told, I'm unsure if I'm suspicious of Jerry, or just afraid.

Re: [DAY 3] Seinfeld Mafia
This is a true assessment, Whatley. Who knows what roles could be out there at this time? But I have a bone to pick with you here and Big Stein's gonna fight, you better believe that! First, you criticize Elaine because she asked for role claims. But then you can't point to any specific harm that could come from this. You gave a non-answer. The Yankees are all about answers! I don't know how you do it in dentistry, but here we get to the bottom of things! I'm as iffy on Elaine's roleclaim as anybody, but I don't understand what you're saying about her here.Tim Whatley wrote: ↑Sat Oct 14, 2017 1:17 pmDepends really.

Re: [DAY 3] Seinfeld Mafia
Speaking of non-answers, this is what Elaine said when I bothered her to case Peterman:
I'll grant Ms. Benes that Big Stein was picking nits on this one, but there is a method to my madness! So far all Elaine has done is give surface-level observations about Peterman, told us what the shape of his post history is. That doesn't tell me anything and she's right that I could find my own answers just by looking at his posts. And that's entirely my point! All she's said is the basic outline of things that anyone could gather by looking at his posts! That's not a thorough investigation! I don't like this one bit. Big Stein is onto something!Elaine Benes wrote: ↑Sat Oct 14, 2017 1:48 amI don't understand your fascination with my boss or my opinion of him. He's made six posts.

Re: [NIGHT 2] Seinfeld Mafia
Ok, sorry, still recovering today, I wasn't as active as I had hoped, in Mafia or in real life. Due to being sick, I fell behind in responsibilities and things I need to get done. So, even though I feel much better now because of Prednisone and Azithromycin, my time hasn't been free enough to participate at the level I should be. That said, I'm going to try to dive back into the game with some player analysis stuff. Hopefully that will get my head fully back into this game.
First of all, RIP to Mrs Costanza, and my sincere condolences to her grieving husband and son. She seemed like a fine woman.
Now, down to business. I plan to look through each player's posts and catalogue who they have trusted/vouched for/said positive things about, and also who they have suspected/said negative things about. The more intense the colour, the stronger the opinion.

Re: [DAY 1] Seinfeld Mafia
That said, the Yankees would like to extend their own investigative bureau into this business of this Peterman fella.
His first message for us all is nothing at all. Blowing hot air and looking important. Not good, not good. Tell you what, I'd be more a fan of this if he followed it up with some real gumption, a little but of mojo. But instead he's just flopped around in the basement like Elaine's Orioles!J Peterman wrote: ↑Sun Oct 08, 2017 1:31 pm Poisoner - you're out of control. You need help. But I know what you're going through. I, too, once fell under the spell of poison. It was 1979. I was traveling the Yangtze in search of a Mongolian horsehair vest. I had gotten to the market after sundown. All of the clothing traders had gone. But a different sort of trader lurked about. "Just a taste," he said. That was all it took.
The toll road of denial is a long and dangerous one, poisoner. The price? Your soul.
Oh, and by the way, you have 'til the end of the day to clear out your things. You're lynch bait.
I tell you what, buster! If you think this kind of nonsense is gonna play here you've got another thing coming! Mr. Seinfeld and I have already taken turns picking at this post, but I'll go over it again here. Listen to me carefully, folks! First, he makes a big hooplah about the scattered votes. I got two words for that neck problem of yours, Peterman: Hot tub! Melts that tension away. But then, you know, instead of trying to slow the roll of this perceived problem of vote spreading, Peterman decides to contribute to it! I lost track of the number of names he called out in this post. 1, 2, 3, 4... does he want to help or not? This was all he had to say on Day 1. Big Stein sees no point in a post like this if you're not gonna make any effort yourself, especially after that entry of his. Not looking too sharp here, big fella!J Peterman wrote: ↑Mon Oct 09, 2017 6:14 pm These votes are everywhere! Oh, my neck is one gargantuan monkey fist.
What else have we got? Bania, Newman, Puddy, Leo - you haven't had a suspicion this whole meeting. For the love of God, just tell me what the suspicions are! I'll go with Newman unless we get some new ideas. You're all too quiet.
*walks out, groaning*
We have a word for the kind of thing Peterman's doing here in baseball: piggybacking! That's right, piggybacking! Frank makes a point about Puddy, that poor bastard, God rest his soul, and Peterman pops up to throw fuel on the fire. He says David is "obviously lying". That's a lot of confidence from a man who just minutes earlier was burnt out with nothing to say. Then he goes on to continue to call out the low posters, as if he's not still one of them. Biding his time til something comes along that he can latch onto, that's what Big Stein thinks! There's nothing here but empty words and false intrigue.J Peterman wrote: ↑Wed Oct 11, 2017 7:47 pmFrank, we dine: I was just thinking the same thing here.Frank Costanza wrote: ↑Wed Oct 11, 2017 6:59 pmThe soup man has some spunk!

And then this guy comes in here, saying he'll have some dirt on the Soup Man, and follows up with a nonsense gesture. You want to put a man in his place, you put up your fists! You don't dodge like a little girl!
Puddy, you've got less content in thread than a Chinese sweatshop T-shirt. And you're tunneling on the Nazi like a rat. I don't like it one bit.
Linki: All suspicious? Even the ones with just pictures? You suspicious of Goodnight Moon too?
David, you're obviously lying - anyone can see that! How is that last post any less suspicious than Soup's other posts? I rather thought he's been consistent with his suspicions. You take back your tales, you vagabond!
I'd still like to hear more from quiet people, although I'm pleased to see most are talking since yesterday. Who was it that made the comment about the Estelle and "villread"? I like it. Has experience, but is not using it. And Bania, where are you? Still on Page 3? I need ideas, both of you!
I won't have them turning my office into a den of iniquity! Say something, or get your fix elsewhere! (Like on the chopping block.)
Seinfeld has already told us why he does not like this response. Peterman took one look at what the funny man had to say and brushed it all off incredulously. That's a five dollar word, incredulously. I picked up from playing Scrabble with Buck Showalter. Shame about his Orioles. He's a good man, that Showalter. Unlike this Peterman, who doesn't let anyone talk about him and just sits on his hands waiting for others to do things around him. Time to do your own heavy lifting, big boy!J Peterman wrote: ↑Thu Oct 12, 2017 5:25 pm Ah, so agreeing with someone and bringing up a point about their unexplained "suspicion" is now piggybacking, eh?

And now you're flip-flopping away again because I've agreed with suspicion against the very fellow you were accusing not hours ago? Balderdash, I say.
I need a few moments to check on my brownies (they were at Henry VIII's wedding, can you believe it?) and make sure no one's snuck in my office to steal them. I will return again.
Last but not least is another non-answer. I wanted to know what kind of dirt he could provide on Ms. Benes, but he spent the whole time running in circles with that mouth of his. After all those words I came out of it not knowing what he thinks of Elaine, only that he likes my spirit. Big Stein's got plenty of that! And then he tacks a vote onto that poor sap Puddy. The easiest vote in the world. I love your catalog, Mr. Peterman. In fact I have half a dozen suits from there. But this history of yours is less inspiring! I'm not buying anything that you're selling here, and Big Stein's a businessman first!J Peterman wrote: ↑Thu Oct 12, 2017 6:48 pm That check took longer than I thought. I mean, who among us hasn't snuck into the break room to steal a nibble at the love newton? But my office and brownies are off-limits. I shall answer what I can before I must leave again. I've got a date with a hot banana tonight!
I like this Steinbrenner fellow. Not afraid to say what he thinks, not afraid to let it all hang out, like a kerchief in a fine suit. As for Elaine, she's a tough one, and she's worked for me for years. On the one hand, she's after Jerry pretty consistently, and that's a job...done. On the other hand, she's gone after Puddy, which I didn't expect after those attacks on Jerry. And a claimed vigilante? Such bold words, Elaine! But I wouldn't put it past a woman who doesn't like The English Patient. It's all almost worth firing her over. Almost.George Steinbrenner wrote: ↑Wed Oct 11, 2017 7:55 pm J Peterman, What can you tell me about this Elaine Benes? My people say she's an employee of yours.

But not today, because I'm not liking the looks of this Puddy fellow, either. I've said my piece on him, however short, for I am a man of few words. Puddy, you're out.
Re: [NIGHT 1] Seinfeld Mafia
My addition of George Costanza was just a gut feeling about him, although he comes up looking bad to me in my analysis above.

Seems like she's picking a fight with Seinfeld just to pick a fight. Her argument has my head spinning. Big Stein's getting dizzy. Like riding on one of those carousels, trying to keep up. I never cared for those rides. Rollercoasters, those are okay. Very exhilarating. But a carousel just goes in circles, over and over and over. You never know when they're going to end. I can't figure out where the end of this argument is or where it's beginning either. She says Seinfeld is suspicious for appreciating input from his uncle, then she says he's bad because he voted for Newman. It's not making sense to me, I don't buy her conviction. But Big Stein doesn't see why a mobster would pick a fight like this either. Big Stein is confused, but he'll keep kicking!Elaine Benes wrote: ↑Tue Oct 10, 2017 7:49 pm Well, sure it's unique, because anybody paying attention knows that what your uncle said wasn't true, including you, since you could have tied it up. If I said I liked men but was a lesbian, that would be providing a unique perspective too, but would it be right? Would it be correct, Jerry?
My top picks for lynch today: Steinbrenner, Frank Costanza, and... let's go with George as a distant third, because I haven't had a good feeling about that guy yet.
My good feeling about Mr Kramer came from a post he made to Mr Seinfeld about "keeping him around, you'll be glad you did". Paraphrased, that, since I'm currently out of time for this right now. Looked to me like a vanilla Civ who wanted to draw a kill, which, sadly for him, is what happened. I got the same feeling from your claims, incidentally... not that I think it's necessary to draw attention to such a thing.Instead, there's this.

Highly questionable behavior.
On another not, rereading Estelle's three posts, I find it satisfying to read them in her roleplaying voice. It works despite her admission that she doesn't know how.

@George Costanza Where are you and where is your head at? Why did you vote the Soup Nazi day 1 but not day 2? You did say you had a bad feeling about him.
This relates the core of our situation. We are always trying to get more information. I'm sure when we have more information and the time is right to share, we will. Elaine should know this.
Sien, what do you think of Uncle Leo's vote for you? What do you want right now?

Re: [DAY 3] Seinfeld Mafia
Uncle Leo voted for me on Day 1 because I "latched on" to him as a suspect, which I don't think is true. I can't deny that I voted for him off the bat, but that vote did not stay in its place very long and I named at least a dozen suspects on Day 1. I was latching onto anything I could! But on a Day 1 where not much happened, I can't fault a man for wanting to defend himself against baseless accusations such as mine. His was a vote of passion!Tim Whatley wrote: ↑Sat Oct 14, 2017 3:12 pmI see, I interpreted what she was asking differently. I see no harm in asking for role claims.

Re: [DAY 3] Seinfeld Mafia
My people think Peterman is the surest bet today, and if he turns out to be rotten then there's a good possibility Elaine Benes has been helping him on the side. But we still need to hear more from everybody about everybody. I like what Whatley has been showing us today and I hope he keeps it up. Whatley, care to give me a report on Frank and Jackie? The Yankees appreciate your dedication to the cause today!
Re: [DAY 3] Seinfeld Mafia
My people don't understand the Soup Nazi's strategy today. He seems dead set on believing that Seinfeld and I are up to no good and less interested in pushing the investigation forward. A stick in the mud, that's what he's being. I'm gonna need to see more out of him in the future!
Re: [DAY 3] Seinfeld Mafia
Seinfeld can do whatever he pleases, as long as he stays out of my restaurant.
Your ISO came out worst than my cousin Hamid's goulash,so why should I exonerate you just for being vocal. Explain your virtues, business fiend.

Re: [DAY 3] Seinfeld Mafia
The Soup Nazi needs to update his case if this is it. We've been over this. He sees me throwing too much shade on Day 1. I was prodding people to make things happen. It was a slow start and Big Stein wanted action! It's in my nature. The New York Yankees need results!

Re: [DAY 3] Seinfeld Mafia
My people keep telling me to ease up on Frank. The man just lost his wife. You see the way he came in today? I tell you, Big Stein wept like a baby when he saw that. But I haven't seen him follow through on that conviction yet. I'm listening to my people, but Big Stein only has so much patience. After a while I start to nod off. Like when I watched that Marlon Brando in the gangster movie, what's it called? I was hooked at the start, but halfway in and I couldn't sit still! Big Stein needs to boogy!Jerry Seinfeld wrote: ↑Sat Oct 14, 2017 7:26 pmOkay yeah, Frank and George are definitely both mafia.Frank Costanza wrote: ↑Sat Oct 14, 2017 7:13 pm My son hasn't said a thing today.

Re: [DAY 3] Seinfeld Mafia
Warning: if civilians continue to be absent from the thread for 95% of the game, the mafia team can literally lynch whoever they want simply by virtue of having three votes.

Re: [NIGHT 2] Seinfeld Mafia
I don't know if the following "analysis" is real, but it sure isn't spectacular.
So first off, I apparently don't have anything good to say about anyone. Huh. That can't be right. I don't know how anybody read what I said about my boss as complimentary though- the guy has six lousy posts and none of them accomplish anything.
Everyone knows I'm really psyched about exercises, but I don't understand the purpose of this particular exercise.Jackie Chiles wrote: ↑Sat Oct 14, 2017 3:06 pm Ok, sorry, still recovering today, I wasn't as active as I had hoped, in Mafia or in real life. Due to being sick, I fell behind in responsibilities and things I need to get done. So, even though I feel much better now because of Prednisone and Azithromycin, my time hasn't been free enough to participate at the level I should be. That said, I'm going to try to dive back into the game with some player analysis stuff. Hopefully that will get my head fully back into this game.
First of all, RIP to Mrs Costanza, and my sincere condolences to her grieving husband and son. She seemed like a fine woman.
Now, down to business. I plan to look through each player's posts and catalogue who they have trusted/vouched for/said positive things about, and also who they have suspected/said negative things about. The more intense the colour, the stronger the opinion.
Elaine Benes
Frank Costanza
Jerry Seinfeld
Soup Nazi
Jerry Seinfeld
David Puddy
David Puddy
J Peterman
David Puddy
Joe Civilian (lol)
David Puddy
Jerry Seinfeld (a deception, claimed to track Jerry)
J Peterman
George Costanza
J Peterman
Tim Whatley
George Costanza
J Peterman
Analysis: Ms Benes has very little to say that is positive about anyone. The closest she came was questioning why Mr Steinbrenner was so interested in her boss, Mr Peterman.
Frank Costanza
George Costanza
Estelle Costanza
George Costanza
Soup Nazi
Cosmo Kramer
George Costanza
George Steinbrenner
David Puddy
Jerry Seinfeld
David Puddy
Jackie Chiles
George Costanza
Soup Nazi
George Costanza
More positivity than Ms Benes, Costanza Sr. has been most negative about his son George.
George Costanza
Jackie Chiles
Cosmo Kramer
George Steinbrenner
Uncle Leo
Jerry Seinfeld
Jackie Chiles
Elaine Benes
The Soup Nazi
Estelle Costanza
Frank Costanza
Estelle Costanza
Jerry Seinfeld
Elaine Benes
Uncle Leo
J Peterman
Jackie Chiles
Pretty even number of positive and negative stuff here. In contrast to my previous two analyses, this amount of 'vouching' makes me feel suspicious. Mafia know who's not bad, and I could see him finding it easier to be honest when giving opinions, if he's bad. On the other hand, Estelle was his biggest suspect, so why night kill her in that case? Where would that leave him?
George Steinbrenner
Uncle Leo
David Puddy
Newman
Kenny Bania

Lots of content here. Looks pretty good to me, actually. His opinion on Frank Costanza has shifted quite a bit.
That's all the time I have right now, unfortunately.
So first off, I apparently don't have anything good to say about anyone. Huh. That can't be right. I don't know how anybody read what I said about my boss as complimentary though- the guy has six lousy posts and none of them accomplish anything.
But here's the thing. If you have limited time, does going through and assigning a vague color to every little thing a person may have said about another person accomplish anything? This post is a waste of the taxpayer's money, Mr. Chiles.Elaine Benes wrote: ↑Sat Oct 14, 2017 12:55 am Okay, here's the deal with my boss. He demands things of others, but never delivers himself. It's a way to look like a leader without actually doing anything. The man has six posts. Six! Half of them are demanding other people do things.

Re: [NIGHT 1] Seinfeld Mafia
I will never understand people.
This was Night 1. How did Leo know David was good?Uncle Leo wrote: ↑Tue Oct 10, 2017 1:00 pm Jerry, Hello! How could you do this to Newman? Your cousin Jeffrey, you know, at the parks department, can't believe you'd get something like this wrong. What a guy that Jeffrey.
So now that that's out of the way,
Newman did very clearly state that he was innocent. On day 1, what more could he have said to indicate that he was "trying?"
For the record, I am a senior citizen with a record (it was a crime of passion!) however, I am innocent of all other crimes.
I am suspicious of Steinbrenner for "latching on to me" as someone put it. It didn't hold or gain traction so it makes sense that he changed his vote. Still, suspicions exist. Call it retaliatory, call it whatever. I know that I am good and until Steinbrenner gives me a reason to change my mind, he is as good a target as I was to him initially.
As for Puddy (high five!), you are good and not going to hell, so why no vote? Were you too busy at a hockey game and forgot?
I would also be suspicious of Elaine & our resident sweetheart, Soup Nazi. Potential throwaway votes against each other (because we had a clear victim with votes stacked up against Newman) "backed up" by phony talk in the thread. I guess we will see how they vote in the future.

Re: [DAY 3] Seinfeld Mafia
I don't mind the specific nature of Jackie's analysis (judging players' takes on each other in a color coded display is an interesting and worthwhile approach). I would like to see more conclusive stances derived from that effort though. Jackie, please provide concrete reads on every remaining player, gun-to-head or rainbow or a flat list or whatever you want to do.

No problem, Mr Seinfeld. I used the time I had, and I had to stop. Just got home from the office, and I'm going to get back to it.
George Costanza looks the worst from my analysis so far.
