Nothing pisses me off like losing half of an ISO because of an errant click of the "back" button.

And here I am reading word for word for well over an hour still unable to really say much other than responces.

As for why you and speedchuck: I think you're an unlikely pairing, but I feel one of you is bad. After my isos I'll let you know who's good and who's bad.
I'm not really catching up as I should, I'm just sort of picking at things as I scroll down random recent pages. I don't mean to make you repeat yourself over and over.

Re: Mountain Mafia [DAY 4]
A fresh look at DrWilgy
First substantive post
Quin's little move to generate responses re: his pledge to "vote Epi whenever" got a reply from Wilgy. It's a strategic assertion which doesn't say much of anything about either Epi or Quin. Filler potential. The negative read on Daisy is a loud one. Okay. The question he posed to Sloonei could have some utility if there's follow-up.
Another early multi-quote salad (let's make it a Thing guys)
There are numerous questions here. Questions are neat. I don't know what Wilgy is doing with them though.
Multi-quote salad again
Wilgy is inserting nuggets of chatter into numerous conversations. They don't boast much unique insight though. The sole stance I see taken here is an agreement with Quin's grievance against Kyle.
I wouldn't say this is the first time I have seen "normal Wilgy", or at least a Wilgy who involves himself in the game with words and posts. The first example that comes to mind is Talking Heads (he was bad). I don't know why Daisy's fear of his normalcy is a "good thing".
The one stance I referenced before was Wilgy's take on Kyle, via Quin. Kyle responded with a contrary description of his behavior. Wilgy's reply is a neutral observation which is no longer interrogative. The only stance taken thus dissipates, leaving this post history a bit bare to this point -- more than it appears at a glance. That's not ideal.
Jack ISO
It's nice that Wilgy's takes in this ISO are multi-directional -- he has both positive and negative things to say about Jack. The negative side wins the day, as the conclusion is a scum read on Jack. Some of the language employed here is a concern:
"Are you buddying or talking with a teammate here?" -- Loaded question
"I feel that JoH has a way of portraying things that either are forced or feel like a forced portrayal." -- Jack has a way of either portraying things that are forced or forcing a portrayal. Eh? What does that mean?
Wilgy expressed concern that he might be tunneling on Jack and pledged to broaden his focus.
Wilgy joined the Mesk wagon at EOD3. I don't take issue with a decision being made on the fly like this in the heat of EOD nonsense. It does beg expansion now though -- Wilgy, what inspired (hi Quin) your willingness to contribute to this wagon?
dunya was critical of Wilgy's lack of hard stances and Wilgy took issue. On this front, I think dunya's assertion is valid. There's really not much in the way of stances in this post history that I can see.
The highlighted bit reads awkwardly at face value. First, there's an implied suspicion, or at least "room" for suspicion -- but the assertion of a "tree being shaken" is as applicable (if not moreso) to a civilian as a mafioso. Indeed shaking trees is often half the game.

I've stated numerous grievances here and less nice to say. Wilgy is a suspect.

Re: Mountain Mafia [DAY 4]
I would be okay lynching wilgy, quin, sloonei, dunya, or lc. I know its my duty to go into detail but I cannot stare at this screen much longer. This isnbased on a previous poat I made in response to dunya. These arenthe people I don't trust atm.
Wilgy-not trying hard enough. Has pinged me a couple times.
Quin and sloonei-seem to be a driving force this game but I don't feel like they seem super civ. Baddie teams usually have at least one very vocal player. If this team does, gotta be one of these.
Dunya-same field as sloonei and quin as a driving force, but she has said several things that ping me even though she also seems like a vey helpful civ. "Seems" and "is" are two different things.
Lc-still could be bad imo

Re: Mountain Mafia [DAY 4]
I need to step away from the legacy for a short time. I would like to do two more of these before the day nears its end. I'm accepting requests. I will only honor the request if I feel the name is a pertinent one given time constraints.

Re: Mountain Mafia [DAY 4]
I feel like... There are too many players that I trust in this game. We've had so little death that it's been... I don't know how to say this.... Almost too easy to get civvie reads. There's so many players in this game that I feel inclined to trust on some level, but I consciously know that other than like.... 1.5 of them any of them could be mafia trying to push civs off the cliff.

Re: Mountain Mafia [DAY 4]
Togekiss does the same thing and it has better stats and access to Tailwind (if you play doubles) or Defog (if you play singles) which are good support options. it can also self recover.Kylemii wrote: ↑Fri Dec 01, 2017 8:58 pm Dunsparce also has access to the serene grace ability which lets it use air slash's heightened flinch rate and thunderwave to completely block their opponent from attacking, although togekiss does it a little better and benefits from the flying type move...

Jirachi is a more offensive option for Togekiss too, if you are not playing an official tournament.
Dunsparce is outclassed, sadly.

Re: Mountain Mafia [DAY 4]
I don't feel like lynching Wilgy. He doesn't make me feel any suspicion.
I feel some suspicion on Malakim on the other hand.
But now I don't wanna betray my civ Jay theory. Even though i'm also betraying my bad Jay theory to begin with.

Re: Mountain Mafia [DAY 4]
I'm mostly riding the "Mesk lynch was a save" theory.
So one of Jay and Dom must be bad. If not Jay then Dom. And Malakim made some posts that looked lazy and uncommital.

And I don't want to lynch Wilgy.

Re: Mountain Mafia [DAY 4]
Still catching up but had to comment on this. Jay seems a pretty obvious target for today - if he is bad he seems a better candidate for bussing than saving, especially considering his availability.Dragon D. Luffy wrote: ↑Fri Dec 01, 2017 7:04 pm I'm also bothered by the lack of votes in this day.
If Jay is bad, it would make sense for there to be some counter-wagon by now (maybe Wilgy is the counter wagon?). And I don't like how everyone who is voting for Jay is someone I'm currently townreading (well there is Jack, but I like current Jack more than Day 1 Jack so i'm still on the fence about him). Maybe mafia is just watching from afar, since the civs are doing their dirty work for them. So they don't need to expose themselves, by making bussing too obvious or risking discussion going against them.

You just aren't participating like normal Jay, civ or baddie imo. I have been in games with you where you were civ and bad and I would say you carry the thread in either situation. So, I don't see this quiet Jay (quiet for you) as necessarily a bad jay. But it is disconcerning. So, I'm curious. Have you taken on more in your RL schedule? I ask because I hate to lynch a civ Jay because of RL business.JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Fri Dec 01, 2017 5:16 pm I said I was going to put reads in this thread and I will. I do not have time to be Jerry Seinfeld and I don't give a shit about trying to be Jerry Seinfeld. I frankly don't see how there could be any impression that I give a shit about trying to be Jerry Seinfeld or any other generic super-civilian cookie cutter rendition of myself given the posts I have made in this game. This variety of meta read is bogus, as though JJJ suddenly forgets how to make a million posts when he draws a mafia role.
There's a reason I am only here during brief windows right now. That won't change for the foreseeable future in this or ensuing games. I implore the civilians in this thread to engage a broad dialogue whether I am your locked vote or not. Nothing is friendlier to the mafia team right now than a continuing focus on me, especially when I am in no position to engage the discussion.

I said he looked defeated. Not that he had given up.dunya wrote: ↑Fri Dec 01, 2017 5:40 pm I was pinged by Jay's lack of focus tbh and the fact he didn't direct a single suspicion towards me. That's very unlike him. He usually kills my game when I'm townie, and frustrates me till I start dreaming of rage quitting. :P When I named him as a suspect, I hoped it would trigger a different kind of response where I could be sure of his towniness, as I have been in past games. How will Jay respond? That is a huge tell all in itself.
I feel a bit mean though, because I know what he's going through IRL. He barely has time to talk to me, even. It's close to end of semester and we have exams and assignments due.
I believe he replaced into this game same reason I did (a sort of sense of obligation, let's say), and while I pretty much screwed off my exam studying time to get up to date with the thread the last 2 days, I think Jay values his education before mafia (smart guy. smarter than me, probably. definitely).
I was never going to go through with lynching him without giving him time to clear himself or sufficiently fend off accusations thrown his way. The fact he has so much suspicion on him and didn't bother going through them all does not strike me as "giving up" as Sloonei put it (and I'm surprised he could think Jay would give up). On the contrary, it had an opposite effect on me and I've played plenty with Jay (and scum Jay) to know that like me, he'd defend himself till the last dying breath. It's basically like this grad student has exams man. Let's cut him some slack for not spending 5 hours playing online mafia.
no lynch Jay today. I urge you all to reconsider and look elsewhere.

If Jay is bad, it would make sense for there to be some counter-wagon by now (maybe Wilgy is the counter wagon?). And I don't like how everyone who is voting for Jay is someone I'm currently townreading (well there is Jack, but I like current Jack more than Day 1 Jack so i'm still on the fence about him). Maybe mafia is just watching from afar, since the civs are doing their dirty work for them. So they don't need to expose themselves, by making bussing too obvious or risking discussion going against them.

Re: Mountain Mafia [DAY 4]
I did read through of the Wilgmeister, and he seems... soft I guess. Softer than in Pirates, soft like a dunsparce. I don't know if pirates was a typical game for him but in that one I remember him calling people out a lot more aggressively despite using only emojis to speak, and that was just on day one. Then again maybe he just seemed more to the point because he was only using faces to communicate?

Re: Mountain Mafia [DAY 4]
The only scenario in which I can see Jay being town is if he's completely fatigued from real life duties right now and simply doesn't have the energy to replicate his usual style. This has nothing to do with his level of activity. I've seen him play plenty of games with time constraints and a lower-than-normal post count, but the content has still been its usual caliber. It hasn't been there for the most part in this game, IMO. But considering the time of year that it is, I could believe that it would be interfering not just with his ability to be here, but also his ability to be JJJ.
That said, I could still see this as scum jay dealing with the same time and energy constraints, and I'm lacking a solid secondary suspect. Maybe I could return to colonialbob. I sense a lot of town in-fighting in this thread right now. Let's all remember that 12 of us are big mountains and only 4 are little.

Re: Mountain Mafia [DAY 4]
My knee-jerk reaction is to always read wilgy as town because everyone else's knee-jerk reaction is to read him as scum. As such, I've given him a pass for most of this game.

Did you misspeak here? This sentence seems to imply a point countered to the rest of your post.

Re: Mountain Mafia [DAY 4]
Stuff about malakim2099
This player slot has been essentially vacant for the whole game. It no longer is, so I think folks should make an immediate effort to sort that read.
malakim needed 34 minutes to find something suspicious, in this case in support of an assertion by DDL about Quin. This is rather bizarre, because DDL's suspicion appears contingent upon either me or malakim himself being mafia (and Quin's maneuver to lynch Mesk thus representing a save). malakim: did you view this notion of Quin's voting, regardless of its accuracy relative to the poll voting order, suspicious independent of the connection DDL drew?
There's no harm in asking for some time to get through the lengthy game thread. I'd have liked this more though without the appeal to emotion angle shoved into the first bit.
I like this one more. I would expect a civilian who has replaced into these conditions and finds himself beset by suspicions emerging from an EOD3 in which he played no part to view his accusers with some concern. This strikes me as a natural result of the circumstances, wherein a civilian Domalakim would be a low-hanging fruit.
What does that theory matter with regard to your willingness to vote for me? Do you suspect me more because people think I might be on your mafia team?

No. I'm saying it's possible that this is just exhausted Jay, but that I also still note the same differences in his game as I've been pointing out for the last 48 hours and I can't put them out of my mind.

Given my inability to serve in that typical role of content facilitation, which requires a constant thread presence and devotion to staying on top of each dialogue, I have to find other ways to contribute. A good civilian needs to be able to be more than a one-trick pony.
I'm trying to be the detached analyst. It's not my comfort zone. It's not what I'm used to. I think it's what I'm best able to provide to the civilian team dynamic in this game. This game has moved at a torrent pace. The generation of content has never been an issue, and motivators and facilitators are present in my stead, at least most of whom are likely to be trustworthy. Were it not for that, maybe I would have been foolish and spent way more time trying to make this move in typical fashion. Thank goodness it hasn't been necessary for my sake.
