Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 4]
Jack's right.
We've got 18 players in this game. Assume we have 5 mafia and 2 independents. Suppose we lynch two Indies in the next two day phases and two civilians are killed. That leaves 14 players and 5 of them mafia. That means we're 2 mislynches away from LYLO.
Let's not lynch Jay, not unless you don't believe him.
Let's find scum.

Kyle, what made you think Jay was lying here?Kylemii wrote: ↑Sun Jan 21, 2018 10:57 pm rip rabbit
Jay has claimed or has strongly hinted Kano (why??). Marmot has also counterhinted Kano.
I think Jay is lying, or even if he's not he's proven himself to be a neutral with bad intentions. Jay rolling a role with a "make sure 10 civs including 2 specific civs" is absolutely going to be proactive towards achieving that because of his "play to win" attitude. but I think he was lying, and counting on the real Kano not saying anything because..... admitting that you're a visibly anti-town role is actually ludicrous??but marmot also seemingly did that. fake claiming to be a doesn't-need-to-be-lynched-role when people want to lynch you looks worse than claiming to be a doesn't-need-to-be-lynched-role to prevent the former thing.
neither Simon nor Jay are on the poll right now which is..... Yeah. Something's obvs-fucky.

I don't think two mafia members claim indy today. But I can't be sure.
Would be worth figuring out who Ermac is based on sentence structure, etc but I'm really tired.

I’m not sure what to make of him to be honest. At this point, I’m considering just putting all the people I don’t feel sure about in some randomiser and let it do the work for me - let probability do the job for me

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 4]
just a heads up to Kano, if Jack is correct in his math and we don't lynch a mafia in the next couple days you will be locked out of victory.epi wrote:Kano
Kano wins if he survives, Sonya Blade and Jax are dead, and at least ten other civilians are dead.
If the game ends with the full mafia alive there will only have been 9 civvie deaths. You need a mafia lynch as much as we do.

I find myself following/agreeing with Kyle's thoughts the most here. Whatever Marmot is doing here, it seems antitown.

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 4]
I still think speed is a decent option but could definitely also go with Marmot now. Tony is on my short list as well at the moment. He's been all over the place since the dunya lynch and hasn't really explained his suspicion of me very well (I responded to his main post about it and he hasn't acknowledged my response but says he is still confident in his vote for me).

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 4]
I see Jack is voting Wilgy; I've been trusting and agreeing with Jack a lot and Wilgy has also been a pretty consistent suspect all game, mostly for not saying anything of substance. So he's on the table as well.

Simon is also off the poll
can someone who is good at math tell me how far away from lylo we are? I can't imagine jay would do something like this unless he were confident it would lead to something advantageous for his team.
I guess for today we look at TSP, and Eloh. Marmot is also okay as an emergency food source.

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 4]
I was trying to draw your attention to Marmot immediately claiming Jester in the burglary today. He didn't do that for civilian reasons. He said he'd have done it regardless of whether he rolled Jester or not.

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 4]
the situations are different. In jester games there's no harm in claiming jester because the only person who doesn't mind being seen as possibly being the jester is the actual jester.Quin wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2018 6:09 amI was trying to draw your attention to Marmot immediately claiming Jester in the burglary today.

marmot countered strongly-suspectsd-to-be-a-mafia-member Jay's strongly implied claim of being Kano by implying he owned that role. the civilian utility for a fake indie counterclaim would be fairly limited, and would really just be a more risky way to get across the point of "doubt it"

Good to see you still with us today, Quin


I would agree with you about Eloh - I’ve read nothing that suggests to me that she’s Mafia and she’d be far from the top of my suspected Mafiosos this game (if I had such a list, that is

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 4]
I'd lean civ on Wilgy. I don't like the comparisons I've read to how he solved the game in pirates using only emojis. He said more then, but I'm not convinced his lack of content is more likely to come from scum Wilgy. I couldn't give a damn about Tony in this game (i mean he's a swell guy and all but i just haven't paid any real attention to him kk)
Eloh's intro post stuck hard as a civilian who couldn't give a damn about feigning any sort of productivity. I can't really justify specifying her with just that one instance, I guess. But it just felt right.

I'll have to replace out after the 27th, so fingers crossed there's a replacement ready. But I'm here until then, ready to go.Glorfindel wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2018 6:37 amGood to see you still with us today, QuinI’m a little worried about the cruise thing if that means it will in any way limit your participation in this game...
I would agree with you about Eloh - I’ve read nothing that suggests to me that she’s Mafia and she’d be far from the top of my suspected Mafiosos this game (if I had such a list, that is) and I’m starting to get strange vibes about Lapluie myself. There was something I can’t quite put my finger on about her interaction with Dunya that I thought came off as a little ‘manipulative’ if that’s the right word. I wouldn’t be clearing Jack quite so fast however.
Jack's one of my top town reads. I had an exchange with him on D1 in which he came across hella genuine. I've gotten some good tonal reads from him too. I'm gonna ride this read straight to hell

Can you point out the post that gave you the impression lapluie was being manipulative?

It wasn’t one specific post, it was more a general tonal thing. Perhaps manipulative was the wrong word - perhaps unauthentic, if that’s a word

Congrats on the cruise too! May I ask where you’re going and for how long? At the rate we’re going, this game will be well and truly over by the time you leave - please forgive my negativity

I'm staying in Sydney for a night and then heading to NZ. Gonna make stops in Auckland and some other cities/islands. I'll be back on the 8th.

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 4]
Anything is conceivably possible. I suppose it could’ve been him from the language he used but Ermac kinda sounded like he knew stuff and if Jay’s Indy claim is true, I don’t see how that could be true. I’m still not sure I believe any of the stuff he said - for a start, how could you ever take anyone seriously with a ‘cat in a sweater’ avatar?Jackofhearts2005 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2018 8:35 am @TonyStarkPrime

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 4]
My concern is that I have misinterpreted Jay's Ermac claim as a Kano claim. (Obligatory "Which is why claiming should just be allowed and you toss extra roles on the front page as safeclaims or else even claiming neutral should be a modkillable offense. This nudge nudge wink wink this isn't against the rules right business is not my favorite thing.)Glorfindel wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2018 9:05 amAnything is conceivably possible.

While an Ermac claim is less believable than a Kano claim, I'd just as soon lynch Kano as a mafia member. The same does not apply to Ermac.

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 4]
I really don't care at this point and won't be trying to defend myself. I have done nothing to help the civs, this is true. And I woke up this morning with my migraine back and on the opposite side of my head and I feel as if I could throw up at any moment. I am so over feelng like crap. So....nope....don't care.
Banners are cool, but a pain to scroll through so...
I've won a lot of games. I've hosted some games. The end.

Re: Mortal Kombat Mafia [Day 4]
Overdeep analysis of this:
Jay claiming 3rd party, at first glance, seems to be geared toward not getting nightkilled. Marmot's claim then, true or false, is geared toward doubt of that claim. First we'll talk about one's motives, then the other.
If Jay is town, this is an interesting 3P-hunting technique as well as a smokescreen so that he doesn't get lynched before he can figure out the scumteam.
If Jay is mafia, this is a huge WIFOM gambit to throw everyone for a loop. Not sure how this fits with being taken off of the poll, but hidden abilities abound.
If Jay is 3P, obviously he wants to up his chances of survival. Can't win if dead.
I don't buy that Jay is town after this. He's not treating the role that way.
Marmot, on the other hand, is throwing doubt on that claim.
If Marmot is town, he's trying to make sure that Jay's claim does him all harm and no good whatsoever. He's also being marmot.
If Marmot is scum, he's... uh. Doing the same thing? Correct me if I'm wrong, but this makes a little less sense than the town!marmot motive.
If Marmot is 3P, he's infuriated that JJJ found a way to squeeze past the rules and claim his role, when Marmot would have been the first to do that if he'd known. Legit counterclaim.
Now let's talk about presentation and wording.
We have a lie detector, probably still living. That lie detector can't do much to warn us of things. But if either of these people were paying attention to the lie detector, or wanted their statements to be technically true, then JJJ would be the 3rd party and Marmot would be the liar.
Don't know how much people care about that. Lie detectors in game with claiming, like I'm used to, are scary as hell.
Something to think about.
I don't think Jay is town. Whether he's mafia or 3P depends on how much WIFOM he's prone to as mafia. And, y'know, his role card.
I don't see a good scum motive for marmot, but it's marmot. He could be anything and still do this.
Most likely to least likely pairings of Jay/Marmot, off the top of my head:
3P/Town
Mafia/3P
Mafia/Town
3P/Other 3P?
3P/Mafia
Town/3P
Town/Mafia
Town/Town
