Oh, but before I go, I realize that the majorly contributing players all have some variance of town read from me right now, so I want to add: If there are any players who have been heavily contributing to the game and are mafia-aligned, I'd rank them in the following possibilities, despite my placement of them on my rainbow above:

1) zebra
2) Mac
3) Sloonei

I fear any of these being the case, because if so, they've done a pretty good job at seeming town.

Now gotta go.

Here's whats been on my mind -

The silvertongue character can stop a lynch not necessarily "save a person". I don't understand who as town, and silvertongue is town, would have wanted to stop that lynch except for INH. But I want to hear what INH thinks.

If it wasn't him, I don't think silvertongue would have to hide that they had stopped the lynch by contributing to the INH wagon or caring about the EOD tie. Im saying this cos Glorfindel was awfully slow acting (at least what it seemed to me) when he arrived and saw a tie - so I was thinking he could have PM'd the mod then and went to stop the lynch before getting into voting but that doesn't make much sense. So it would be someone off-wagon.

But I want to hear what INH thinks.

Super.

This thread is mostly blocked at work, so I haven't read anything yet. If I live, I'll read. I'm not spending what remains of my evening doing that only to get popped again.

@GMan: In this gme, are failed lynches because a player survives the first kill attempt written differently than a lynch being stopped by silvertongue? Similarly, are failed night kills written the same or differently, based on protection, block, or survival of first death attempt?
I reserve the right to be as specific or vague in each lynch and night post as I choose to be.
So, then, we can't assume it was Silvertongue. INH is still at the top of my list, for the record. Especially since we have not heard from him since the lynch ended. But since I seem to be in the minority, I'm willing to put him on the back burner and consider other subjects. Because even if he is bad, he's still not the only baddie.

I'm half asleep, though, and have a headache, so those thoughts will have to wait to the morning.

HIGH VOLTAGE


A lone motorcycle drove up the highway on the edge of town. The bike wobbled under the precarious positioning of its load. One rider and a passenger strapped lying across the seat. The operator pulled into an electrical substation and parked. Only then did the rest of Toecutter's gang emerge from the shadows of the night.

"Well done, Johnny," Bubba said, nodding in approval. He wasn't as charismatic as their fallen leader but he still got his point across.

Cundalini looked into the eyes of the frightened man who had been kidnapped, gagged, and driven to a place no sensible person would look for him.

"Welcome, friend," he said with a bow. "We are so glad to have you here for tonight's entertainment. It ought to be an electrifying evening." He laughed and dragged the man to the far side of the substation. He pulled him up to a standing position and tore off two long strips from their victim's shirt. One served as a blindfold. The other was used to bind his hands behind his back. The rest of the gang circled around and they took turns spinning and pushing their prey around the circle, disorienting him.

"Enough!" Bubba shouted. The crowd dispersed as the dizzy young man struggled to get up. "Johnny is going to guide you through the substation. Follow instructions or else."

"Ten paces forward," Johnny laughed. The young man counted them off, all the while listening for the buzz, hum, and pop of the transformers and switches. Every time a sound got too loud for comfort, he flinched, making the gang members laugh.

"Now," Johnny said, turn to your left, walk four paces, take a right, go six paces, then right again and twelve paces." He said this fast in order to confuse and torment their victim. It worked. Sobbing and whimpering, the young man somehow managed to match Johnny's directions. Every time Johnny tried to make his directions hard to follow, the young man persevered and got to where he needed to be.

After walking the man in and around the substation for ten minutes, the game was getting old. Johnny's face turned from a frown to an evil smirk as it finally dawned on him what he could to this poor chap.

"Alright," Johnny called out, "nearly done! Turn right and take ten paces forward." The man complied but stopped at nine paces because he could hear live current somewhere in front of him.

"Well done. Now's where we found out what you're made of, mate" Johnny laughed. "There's a set of live wires running about knee-high two steps ahead of you. If you can jump over it, we'll let you go."

Sweat poured down the young man's brow as he tried to visualize the wires and the distance between them and himself. He backed up three paces and collected himself with a few deep breaths. The gang watched as his head bobbed up and down as he psyched himself up for the jump. He darted forward, counted off the paces and jumped as hard and as high as he could, being sure to kick up his legs to avoid the wires.

Had the wires actually been where Jonny said they were, the young man would have cleared them. But there were no wires. There was only a bank of transformers, which the young man landed on top of.

Electricity coursed through his body, stopping his heart instantly. As the transformers overloaded, they arced, catching the young man's clothing on fire and searing his flesh. The bikers watched, dumbfounded at the spectacle until other substation components began to short and catch fire. Breakers and switches sparked, arresters and transformers caught fire. A deafening explosion rocked the substation as the power went out on one side of town.

Amused by their handiwork, the gang rode off into the night. Minutes later, emergency service workers flooded the scene. When the blaze subsided, there wasn't much left of the young man to identify him. His skin burnt to a crisp and his features distorted by the shock and the blaze, the EMT's doubted he could be identified at all. Then they noticed something- his socks.

Only one person in town wore socks like that...


---------------------------------------------------------------


MOVINGPICTURES07 was killed by Toecutter's gang.


It is now Day 5. You have 48 hours to lynch someone.

I just would like to sincerely apologise to you all for my absence (or sporadic presence) so far this game. Regrettably, other matters have impeded my ability to fully engage with this game but I trust I'll have some time now - for the next few days at least to contribute a bit more.

On an unrelated note:

G, could I please ask that you apply a classification scheme to your write-ups in future? Kinda like NSG (Not suitable for Glorfindels) or something? I totally get now that they reflect the tone and content of the movies but I still find them a trifle gruesome :(

MovingPictures07 wrote:=
Shifting down from my strong town reads to my moderate town reads now, Mac and Sloonei fell down from strong town reads, whereas LoRab has remained. Dom has moved up from a slight town read to a moderate town read. I am a bit confused by Sloonei's flip-flopping on me and LoRab, and there is a little part of my gut that, in reading his d4 content, has perhaps started to tinfoil a bit on him. This is because I am beginning to see more manipulative potential in Sloonei's ever-shifting suspect list, suspecting me when it seems my propensity to be lynched is higher, switching away from LoRab to INH in conjunction with turning tides, etc., but I call it a tinfoil because it is difficult to justify this train of thought given his consistently enormous and otherwise genuine contributions to the game.
MP is gone but I'd still like to respond to this in case anyone else is feeling the same way. I'll freely admit to flip-flopping. I do it sometimes. Everyone does it sometimes. We can never trust our reads with 100% certainty, and I'm especially keen on chucking my early game reads completely out the window if I feel like they're off the mark, as is the case more often than not. As for the notion that I'm being "manipulative" "shifting my suspect list" when the opportunity presents itself, I'd say that the first two cases he's referencing here (INH and LoRab) were cases that I started personally. Tides were not turning when I hopped on either of those cases and I was not opportunistically latching onto a pre-existing case. I formed my own suspicions and pursued them. Other people agreed or pretended to agree with me. They're the ones you want, not me.

If anyone is remotely interested in my thoughts, I might start here:

Sloonei: Looked good from the very beginning to me and is one of the few players with whom I've found myself most in agreement in terms of his analysis of our fellow players for a large part of the game. I haven't at any point found reason to question my judgement in this regard In terms of his performance. Contrary to MP's assessment, I don't find Sloonei manipulative at all and I find his comments so far this game to be genuine attempts at seeking the truth.

Day/Night 1.1 After a couple of innocuous introductory posts, he makes off-handed contributions to the Rico/Mac conflagration that consumed Day 1.
1.2 Raises his concern at comments made by INH in response to a post from Epi1.0 on Rico/Mac here and then places his vote on INH.
1.3 Makes an unsolicited reply to a 3J post praising Sloonei's performance in the game so far.
1.4 In response to a post from INH (referred to above in 1.2) querying his comments, MH justifies his concerns on the basis of 'vibes'.
1.5 In this post, the late MP appraises Motel Room's performance in the game and for what it's worth, I think the assessment was both accurate and insightful.

Day/Night 2.1 Questions the legitimacy of DrWilgy's Day 1 nomination of Rico with Mac as a team mate being his principal Mafia reads when his voting mirrored that of Mac's.
2.2 Accuses Rico of being Mafia on the basis of his change of approach for wanting to lynch Mac on Day 1.
2.3 Initial reads and states that he's still perplexed by Rico's behaviour and nominates INH, MP and LoRab as likely Mafia candidates. Offers no opinion on Elohcin but given her rise to prominence, states that he needs to consider her.
2.4 Votes INH.
2.5 Here Motel Room (MR) queries Mac on why he so strongly reads INH as Town and indicates that the view doesn't align with his assessment of INH's alignment and subsequently blatantly asserts Mac's description of INH's wagon as a 'savewagon'.

2.6 Here we have another confrontation with INH on the basis of INH demanding justification for MR's stance on him.
2.7 Votes Rico
2.8 Late in the Day MR changes his vote from Rico to Elohcin and then back to INH and then defends again against INH here.

Day/Night 3.1 In this post, he defends his vote the previous day against questioning by Sloonei and Dom. Mac also reads him solid Town in the embedded post.
3.2 Responds to 3J's ISO on him (where 3J concludes that his vote the previous day had "at least some bus potential"). His response is cool and reasoned stating that his opinion of LoRab's Mafia alignment had cooled and that he still held suspicions against INH.
3.3 Exonerates LoRab here
3.4 Defends against light weight suspicions from Zeb's rainbow list and disputes her reasoning for his place on her list.
3.5 Day 3 GTH reads: Good: Quin, Sloonei, Glorfindel, LoRab, Indiglo, 3J, Mac, MP, DrWigley, and bad: Dom, Sprityo, Zebs and INH.

3.6 Prompted by his GTH read, a protracted argument ensues between MR and Zebs in which MR seems to end up convinced of Zebs guilt.
3.7 Indicates in a post directed towards INH that he is not happy with either his language or tone and subsequently places his vote on him.

Day/Night 4.1 Kudos from 3J on his pick-up in this post.
4.2 Contributes to a 3J assessment of Elohcin's comment on a relationship between alignment and host player replacement priority.
4.3 Queries Glorfindel on his posting style (well, what the HELL is new... :haha: )
4.4 Queries Scotty on his enquiry about Dr Wilgy's votes.
4.5 Questions Indiglo over her frustration and being perceived as Mafia

4.6 Once again, engages with INH asking whether he has any Mafia suspicions other than Glorfindel
4.7 Indicates interest in voting Indiglo or Scotty 2.0
4.8 Queries INH on his assertion that Indiglo is "spooky/scary" who he identifies as INH never having mentioned previously.
4.9 Discusses with Scotty 2.0 a potential relationship based on similar voting patterns between Elohcin and DrWilgy.
4.10 An apparently delayed 'over the bow' shot at Zebs for a remark she made regarding rainbow posting theory.

4.11 States that he doesn't like DrWilgy, Scotty or Indiglo and raises questions about Scotty not voting for INH or Indiglo
4.12 EoD tie debacle remarks.

My verdict here is a fairly solid Town read on MR based on his posts above. I can't say I necessarily see his perspective in regard to his judgements on a number of players but it appears he was correct about MP when there were accusations being thrown around about him. I still believe his suspicions on INH are justified (even if there is a chance that they're wrong). I think (as I've suggested earlier) there is some foundation for those suspicions and no, I don't agree with the camp that believes INH was Silvertongue. I cannot see his reaction on Day 4 aligning to him being that role.

I notice that the conclusion you've drawn from this ISO is almost entirely specific to INH and a now-dead guy. It's also about your own opinion of INH as opposed to an evaluation of your read on motel room based on his INH related content. I think you wanted to make a point about INH but wanted to feign some sort of context behind it. I am concerned.

Again, my apologies if my post appeared that way, my friend. This is only my second attempt at this level of analysis (you may recall my first was last game in Romance of the Three Kingdoms after which I was promptly NK'd by MacDougall) and I guess I still have some work to do in honing that skill. To clarify, I found motel room's tone to be genuine throughout. I think the conclusions he draws are often logical and he has shown a capacity to be open to being proven wrong such as was his experience with LoRab. I think that also (to an extent) gives credence to his reasons for his multiple vote change at EoD on Day 2 that seemed to draw a number of suspicions from other players.

Further, my approach to this analysis was (I'd like to think) fairly organic. I selected Sloonei and motel room because they were on when I commenced that post. I had an open mind on MR when I started writing it and I'll admit, the deeper the theme of INH went, I suppose it hooked into my feelings and thoughts on that topic as well. I do still harbour suspicions of INH but I agree with you, that content wasn't particularly relèvent to the point I was trying to make in respect of MR and I should've probably omitted it.

This is insight I would have expected in your original post. I guess I appreciate it now, if less so. I think the rest of this post is overcompensation. Not sure how to read that.

What evidence have you that he did? There are 12 other players left in this game and anyone of them (more likely not the five that voted for him) could've made that call. Personally, I'd think his reaction earlier in the Day would suggest that he was not Silvertongue as I cannot see any logical correlation between his role and his reaction. Please don't get me wrong, I am genuinely concerned about the guy but no, I don't think he was Silvertongue. I'd also point out that the use of the pardon ability on himself was not automatic (meaning that he would still have to have notified the host of his intention to apply it) and he wasn't anywhere around for ages before the EoD which again, suggests to me that it was another player who pardoned him.

I feel like 'because they were online' is not a good reason at this juncture. If you want to contribute you should be analysing the isos of those you were suspicious of, especially as your first major contribution. It makes me feel like you don't really have any suspicions, which would make your previous read of INH fabricated.

I think you contributed to saving indiglo too. Your eod posts were nervy as fuck.

Why would a player with no confirmation of INH's role save him when his role is a potential lynch pardon of him or herself later. Talk about your all time wastes.

INH also vanishing says to me than he submitted his lynch pardon and bailed.

That being said, he is just as likely to be the bad guy with a similar role, but his frustration makes me lean the other way. I suppose he could have feigned it because of thay very reason.

It is interesting to note that nowhere in Glorfindel's explanation of how INH survived did he suggest he mighy be Cundalini. Probably because he knows he is not.

I swear, one of these days, I learn to write far, far more ecomomically... As I said earlier today, I've been a lot more disconnected from this game until now than I would otherwise have liked. I unreservedly accept responsibility for that - balancing this game with real life is something that everyone of us has to deal with and perhaps this is another skill that I need to develop a lot more.

When I came on this afternoon, I wanted to start somewhere and it seemed like a good idea to me (as I explained in a previous post here tonight) to start with two guys who were on at the time (again, I had no idea that it would take as long as it did...).
