U-Pick Mafia Vol 1 - Game Over

[ColinIsCool]

Well it’s dependent on what that means. You don’t have to offer anybody else up but you know who everybody in your team is?

it's not that simple. I know some people.

As in some Units or some members of the town altogether?

Both.

If not we can assume Alpiedia killed him Which would mean Alpieda has the kill tonight? Which makes LC comment on ISIS odd.

Perhaps LC knows that ISIS is over after Scotty was killed because the kills won't be every other night anymore and he's trying to throw town off guard with numbers. what do you think? LC would do that.. because to plead with ISIS in the thread after you're lynched as the opposing scum team seems dramatic i.e. acting i.e. fake.

[ColinIsCool]

Hmm ok. My thinking was that if you knew how many Units there were we’d have a good shot at then divvying up the numbers to figure out how many were on a scum team but nevermind.

are you saying the scum teams are made up with how many Absolute Unit members there are? and 3ps?

No, my thinking was that we could derive how many are likely to be on a scum team from regular game balance numbers, looking at how many players are left, and how many AUs there were total (or are left)

[colonialbob]

I’m having a really hard time following this game tbh. Are we townclearing everybody who’s been unvanished/unsexcaved? Doesn’t it seem kinda mathematically improbable that you’d all be good??

Sex cave should be NAI. Lost Souls is presumably cleared from being Al-Pieda, although I could see them throwing a teammate in there as deep cover I guess.

I don't think so, like in theory they could, but putting a mafia member with civs, without outside contact is a bad idea. Plus when you're vanished you don't count towards final numbers meaning if we would've lynched the rest of the mafia team they'd be screwed. So I'd say there's a good chance we aren't

I agree with this.

cbob - what do you make of the allegations you're the one cursing people with YouTube vids?

Quick GTH thoughts

Confirmed town:
Colin
Charlie

Probably town:
DDL (or town-aligned?)
Cbob
Juliets
Kyle

Neutral, could see vaguely as scum:
Long Con
Luna
Sloonei
Sig
Dunya

Like less:
INH
Kites
Motel Room
Turnip Head

I have no really strong scum reads so yeah idk

Why did you have me as vaguely scum?

I guess I could see that, but a three person mafia team seems a bit small? I guess in theory it could be 3 on ISIS 4 on other. This would also explain the level of vanishing/silencing mafia roles.

[ColinIsCool]

Because I really think the case you have on me is bad enough that you wouldn’t genuinely believe it, but I’ve been wrong before so I guess you get to be too. Other stuff has flared up over the course of this but I can’t remember it all so it’s kinda, whatever

insulting me doesn't make me believe you're good, ftr.

I was more concerned with you ignoring speedchuck's check on me. cbob claims he didn't see it. You saw it.

Honestly we should all just agree to disagree and lynch Bob tomorrow for taking a break from drinking.

there's 5 s/a that I know of. And 4 mafia on each team would mean 18 civs vs 13 others. I don't wanna argue balance in Mac's game, but theoretically, that seems baddie heavy.

I didn’t mean to insult you personally, so my apologies. I’m not really concerned whether you think I’m good though, I’m answering your question.

I saw the check, but it didn’t make sense to me when he flipped for reasons that should be obvious. Just because a townie says something doesn’t mean it’s true.

[dunya]

you didn't even question the validity of it after speed flipped civ, or the hows or wheres, and wanted me to be maybe scum. That just strikes me as weird. If speed had flipped anything but civ, I wouldn't have questioned it as much. but I'm really surprised (not just by you, the thread in general).

That’s fair and I do understand in this instance why you’d think it was suspicious. But like I said this game hasn’t been at the forefront of my attention ever since everybody stopped talking in the thread and it became about a bunch of BTSC chats I have no ability to assess or verify.

[colonialbob]

cbob - what do you make of the allegations you're the one cursing people with YouTube vids?

They're wrong.

[dunya]

Colin, it's Night 5 now. Perhaps you can give us some real suspects beyond Day 5's "I have no really strong scum reads so yeah idk"

We have 5 scum flips. Give me something to work with here.

Do you still want to lynch Sloonei and Luna?

[ColinIsCool]

The strongest I have is Turnip for his Eloh connection and floaty, coy behavior. I could see Luna bucking my earlier feelings too as something did seem a liiiiiiiiittle different about her here, but that is almost entirely gut talking. I’d need to do interactive analyses to say anything more with the level of confidence you’d prefer.

Tbf most of us were stuck in btsc so it wasn't my choice.

I agree th looks odd, but now I'm unsure i thought he was the vanisher. Could he be a jester role?

What do you think of Luna's quick LC vote and defence from LC yesterday. Especially considering LC tipped us that he popped into his BTSC to indicate he thought juliets had a cop check on him. If you can check her posts out (there's only 2), and let me know what you think.

[ColinIsCool]

If you’re unsatisfied with my participation dunya I would hope you’d also feel the same way toward INH, motel room, Kites and people who are posting much, much less than me. It’s stuff like this that makes me kinda wary of you. You have the Kill Bill murder siren playing in your head when you look at me and IDGI

I'm not bashing your participation level: on the contrary, you're one of the most involved and active. Which is why I'd expect heavier suspicions tbh.

and you're right, I'm totally tunneling. It doesn't make you bad or good, but I am doing it. I won't vote to lynch you before someone other than me voices concern about you, I promise.

[ColinIsCool]

What conclusion do you have from that dunya? I’m not sure I see much of anything. I don’t see that as a bussing at least.

[dunya]

if it makes you feel better, Colin, I got good vibes from your line of questioning me re: Unit numbers.

[ColinIsCool]

I appreciate that. I really hope too you understand I wouldn’t ever want to insult you personally in a game so I’m sorry again if I was rude to you.

[dunya]

This is what I see:

LC feels juliets has attained a scum read on him

LC visits BTSC and tells his teammate(s) of his suspicions

Luna checks into BTSC and thinks LC is going to be a bandwagon at some point when an alignment check is claimed

Luna votes LC

LC voices mild suspicion of Luna possibly being linked to nova

Luna replies and calls it a flimsy argument

Day ends with LC being lynched and being scum.

no no of course I know that. I mean bashing my method or case, dont worry about it. luv ya

[dunya]

My problem with TH is I would have to believe a ton of WIFOM to believe he's scum with Eloh. Which is very possible, especially considering his self admitted ability to pull it off

but I'm not even sure we're looking at 4/4 scum teams. I'd rather lynch someone who I can see as nova/LC teammate this round.

[dunya]

I'll try to do an analysis of cbob with nova and LC before end of night in case I'm killed.

Well ... there’s nothing I can say to discount this. I would prefer to do a look into Luna more thoroughly before I sign off on her lynch, so that will be my next project and if I don’t do it you have permission to strike me down

[Kylemii]

@sig for my sake could you recount your intercourse cavern experience please?

Yeah so Zeph aka King Kong didn't talk much at all expect to come in and offer me a deal. Basically he said he'd help me if I was mafia or civ and if I was mafia he'd abduct strong civvies as long as we didn't kill him. Then he said if I tell anyone anything about what he said or try to figure him out he'd say I confessed to him that I was mafia and get me lynched.

The obvious thing that's wrong here is that if I was mafia I'd never tell an unknown third party my role and the second being I'm not mafia.

Now i figured him out mainly due to his first in game post and then by the fact he logged onto Chatzy with his username.

follow up question: did you ask sexsquatch to abduct me, and if so why?

exorcize

you can spray me with your "holy water" any day.

sorry but sexquatch is and will forever be my only love, even if it turns out he was probably a huge liar.

Also that means Bob is probably the video guy and should be lynched post haste!

we should probably be able to figure out who the YouTuber is by PoE right? by narrowing down what players have claimed/demonstrated other abilities, we could at least narrow things down a bit

who's actually been youtubed

Yeah the people who haven't claimed and those who roles I don't have some idea of/know would be Kites, INH, Luna, Motel, TH, and bob I believe.

I'll cross reference when the inactive players were here, since while they could've logged on to use Night powers and not post I find that unlikely and to my knowledge Mac doesn't randomize abilities if players aren't present.

[sig]

Add colin to that list, but I doubt he's that role.

[sig]

who's actually been youtubed

D2 Golden
D3 Jay
D4 nobody
D5 Luna

The first two point to this not being a civ power since I don't recall Jay or Golden being suspected during those phases. It should also be noted Golden died that night so obviously mafia wanted to shut him up.

Luna's curse is the odd one out, which makes me think teammate, unless she was onto something juicy about scum.

[sig]

Please correct me if I'm wrong and we had a curse D3. If not I doubt INH has that role since he was present N3.

I may or may not have stopped reading this thread 50 pages ago.

I assume everything's been progressing well?

However, his votes are both bad looks.

Sorry, Sprityo. Your number's up.

[VOTE: sprityo] aubergine

Welp, I read the last four or so pages of this thread, and I was slightly pinged by Colin's wanting to go after inactives, (some of us are just nice people hosting time-intensive forum games AND DOING THE BEST WE CAN, OKAY?) I also didn't understand the whole Zeph wagon at all, and thought that Stumpignosis' post about Lapluie could possibly be how he would treat a mafia teammate. Also, I have no better ideas.

[VOTE: Lapluie] aubergine

He was on both counter wagons to ISIS members who ended up being lynched, so he's someone I'd look into as mafia, but not the role I'm searching for.

Kites wasn't around N3 which would be bad, but he wasn't around N4 either. So that lessens his chances of having that role.


Motel Room has been present every night phase. So I'd say he looks the worse out of the inactives for that role. However, that wouldn't explain the night we didn't have an action. I could also kind off see his role (beer) being responsible for something silly like this curse. However, I wouldn't say it's enough to lynch on.



An in general read of inactives would have me wanting to lynch INH first, however it isn't a priority.
