Re: Jack Attack Mafia (Day 1)

I don't think anyone is "clearing" her. I see people saying she's not worth lynching Day 1 and I agree (not that I would advocate for that anyway).Funnygurl555 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 08, 2020 2:37 pm i don't think the kitsu is town case is believable, especially if they have experience playing the game. i'm all for derp clears and all, but i wouldn't derp clear her for that. js
I don't agree with that at all.

so what information does it bring? does it point out mafia or town on their train? no, because we can find that out by other means, so all it is, is a waste and varying degrees of NAI or scummy. I am not going to even pretend to call it towny, cause it's not
I like his case. Saw an argument against LC being meta based regarding his frustration? I think that's NAI. That's pretty much all I got ta say about that.
Can't a mafia member just tell JJJ the teammate what to do in that scenario?Hally wrote: ↑Wed Jul 08, 2020 3:10 pm if jays role is exactly as he claims it is—and this is obviously a big “if”—i think its always a town or maybe 3P role. mafia’s voting power is very important given their small numbers and i dont really believe a host would saddle one of their members with a role that requires them to vote where theyre told. nullifying the voting power of a mafia member is rarely done ime unless theres some catch to it
the problem with his "role", is that we don't know if its real, but if its confirmed, its probably more like to be in the hands of town, because in a wolf slot it gates the mafia all for the sake of wifom?Epignosis wrote: ↑Wed Jul 08, 2020 5:43 pmCan't a mafia member just tell JJJ the teammate what to do in that scenario?Hally wrote: ↑Wed Jul 08, 2020 3:10 pm if jays role is exactly as he claims it is—and this is obviously a big “if”—i think its always a town or maybe 3P role. mafia’s voting power is very important given their small numbers and i dont really believe a host would saddle one of their members with a role that requires them to vote where theyre told. nullifying the voting power of a mafia member is rarely done ime unless theres some catch to it

Nanook isn't getting removed Day 1 even if he is bad.
My statement was not one of judgement, but one of observation. And I had already said I thought Nanook was good.
How did you arrive at this percentage?
theoretically yeah but its way more likely his vote gets controlled by town than scum at least early on just because of how many more town there areEpignosis wrote: ↑Wed Jul 08, 2020 5:43 pmCan't a mafia member just tell JJJ the teammate what to do in that scenario?Hally wrote: ↑Wed Jul 08, 2020 3:10 pm if jays role is exactly as he claims it is—and this is obviously a big “if”—i think its always a town or maybe 3P role. mafia’s voting power is very important given their small numbers and i dont really believe a host would saddle one of their members with a role that requires them to vote where theyre told. nullifying the voting power of a mafia member is rarely done ime unless theres some catch to it

I don't think that it's JJJ's style to pull flaunty fake roleclaims when he's bad. I was bad with him recently, and I proposed a risky fakeclaim that directly challenged the actual owner of the role by pre-claiming it before he could. Jay was hesitant to commit to that plan, he's more comfortable and familiar with status quo straight play.

My clear POE pool remains: ColinIsCool, DrWilgy, sprityo, Long Con, and Funnygurl555. I said earlier in the phase that my goal was a pool of seven, so I have room for two more on the tinfoil side. I’d look first to Alison and TonyStarkPrime for that “tier”.
Anyone who has severe misgivings about this arrangement (ideally beyond “I’m on the list, how dare you”) should speak up.

That is right... I could see that role coming from Jack.

i dont think jay is maf anyway though
Alison had just [deliberately or not] ordered me to place a vote. I wanted to make it clear to 1) anyone that didn't see my claim already and 2) any would-be trolls, overconfident civilians, or mafia that deliberate abuse of my crippled role would be met with severe repercussions.
No, why did you bring it up in the first place?JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Wed Jul 08, 2020 6:15 pmAlison had just [deliberately or not] ordered me to place a vote.

I can literally have my voting agency stolen from me. That's a majorly shitty thing, and I am not letting anyone forget it's there.
All it takes is someone casually saying to me "you should vote for X", and my role is publicly triggered. I'm not setting myself up to have to claim my role after I've already been stuck obeying it -- that creates unnecessary doubts that I don't think would be healthy for this town. I'm laying it out in my first post much like a miller would.

His reads sound like they come from a real place. If the "Nanook is unlynchable d1" thing is a true statement and was left at that, then I don't see that coming from a civ mindset. The notion shuts down discussion of potential suspects.
Responses to these points, Epignosis?Long Con wrote: ↑Wed Jul 08, 2020 3:26 pm It appears that Epignosis believes, like the majority of the thread, that Kitsu is a clear townread, and that he thinks that Colin and Wilgy are better options for suspicion.
The issue I see with this post is that I asked him right away, "Why should I think Colin and Wilgy are bad?" and he didn't respond to it or try for further dialogue. That increases my suspicion of him.

Second, I didn't just give the reason I badded KitsuShel, I directly asked Epignosis about his post in an attempt to engage him, and he didn't reply.
Is Long Con a civilian?
Channeling your inner Nanook to defend Nanook. I laughed.
