In Recruitment Mafia's, it always pays to look for changes in tone and shifts in opinion. These are SVS's thoughts regarding Golden Day 1:

http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 61#p168261
The part where he said he wanted Epi dead or God help him felt fairly sincere to me, Golden being a lay preacher and all. As I said initially, Goldens original line of questioning to me did not feel that odd,

-------

http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 59#p168459
Unless Golden started out on someones short list, or is a recruiter himself, I don't see him applying for baddie positions in the various contests that the host is likely to have, based on prior experience with their games. I also think that, based on odds, he is as unlikley to have started out as a baddie recruiter as anyone else,
So I think that the odds of Golden finishing the game as a civ or a neutral are somewhat higher than for most people.
==================

She spent all of Day 2 hounding Golden for "baiting" the Epi kill, ignoring that 24 hours previous, she made some good points about how unlikely he was to be bad. To me, this reads like SVS sees an easy lynch and is going for it. No skin off her back, if he flips neutral early.

I think SVS is the Ubzergan (sp) recruit from the role picture contest, or Ubzergan herself.

Interesting that there was no Immortal kill.

@Hosts:
Will failed kills be written into the post?
How many missing PM's?
Failed kills should be written in. I think I missed writing in the Immortal kill that failed last night. I'll write it up today after I talk to BR to be sure of what she wants to do. I think the right solution is to just write up an extra section about this person surviving and post it.

There was definitely one PM missing.
Totally forgot about this. The Immortal's Position 1 kill was headed for G-Man, but G-Man survived. Sorry about the oversight.
Interesting. That leaves only a few options for who G-Man might have been.

Also, it seems most of the kills and kill attempts have targeted big players so far. I don't stand a chance to win this if I remain unrecruited. :scared:

Who here doesn't like big players? :smoky:

Personally, I think the Timmer suspish is weak, to be blunt. BUT that's becasue I know the history. I was at the head of the pack that lynched him in RM3 for the exact same reasons the people who don't know him want to lynch him now, so I feel it is only right to speak up. I woke up, and I caught up from the night before during my morning coffee & Mafia time, and gave my opinion on Timmer, which had been the last conversation before I posted.

How will we be able to test that or get info out of that, if there'll be a lynch switch no matter what.
You can't. That's the point. I am of the opinion that with the variety of roles that can switch things around, there is no way to really know anything :shrug: With these hosts, attempts to "solve" their intricately woven chaos will invariable end in failure. Not all games are logic puzzles. Some games are finely crafted clusterfucks.

If you're a baddie and you've got a use it or lose it lynch switch, or use it or lose it whatever power, you use it.

I read some of Bubbles posts in other games, and I was like *meh* about her being bad. Anything is possible, but she sounds about the same in those games as she does here. Although i disagree with him on Timmer, I do tend to agree with Wilgy on Bubbles.

I had a doctors appointment and took half a day. I will be in and out.

Linki @ DH, yes I clearly posted the EXACT time that my opinion on Golden shifted. EXACTLY. The exact post. Old news dear, keep up with the thread better :grin:

You didn't suspect Golden for killing Epignosis (aka his bait to get Epignosis being WIFOM) until late into Golden's lynch. Initially you suspected Golden for his nonchalance and for distrusting that he's playing his civ game.

Golden made his doomed comment fairly immediately, so there was no window for players to feel "sorry about Golden being hounded by Epig". His comment split the players right away into those finding him nonchalant and bad and those finding him genuine and possibly framed.

So when was Golden a lynch target for killing Epignosis (or the WIFOM around it)? As I've said, only you converted your suspicion into that late on D3 and I think rey did it as well at one point (without having brought it up before at all). I'd have to double-check about others, don't recall.

Am I misunderstanding something? Did you mean DH implied people (easily) suspected and lynched Golden for killing Epig? Because I don't see where he implied that.

That's nebulous, but regardless my point still stands: I've seen SVS be "combative" as a goodie, too. "Combative SVS" does not necessarily equate to baddie SVS in my experience.

No, lol. How are you reading it this way? I am sorry I am not being clear. During the day before Epi died, I was sorry for Golden; I would imagine anone on the receiving end of Epis assuredness was.

I was asking why anyone would think it was an easy lynch, the "for killing Epignosis" part was rhetorical. Like how would someone people felt sorry for be an easy lynch?

@DH, um, I am not being combative? I am defending myself here.

I don't think either of those things. My tone is consistent throughout my alignment.

The course of events is:

SVS says that she does not thing Golden will be recruited to a baddie team, nor does she find it especially likely he is a baddie recruiter, at least not more so than anyone else.

The Ubzer picture contest happens and is resolved

Epignosis is killed

Golden brags about the Epi Kill

SVS goes after Golden all of Day 2.

The way that makes sense to me is SVS was recruited by Ubzer.

Why think it was her teammate? If TinyBubbles is on Ubzargan's team, i think it's more likely she's Ubzargan herself:

Last night, after the lynch switch, Bubbles chose Position 1, rather than Position 4, knowing there would be 'consequences'. Why, after having just survived a lynch, would you be ok with taking on extra consequences? Ubzargan has lynch immunity on Position 1. Could it be someone thought they could really use lynch immunity the next day? :p

I'm ok with placing a vote on TinyBubbles for now.

So you suggest we dismiss belief, thought, reasoning and more so discussion? SVS, you are treading down the same path that had me voting Unfurl early.

I was suspicions of you for hounding Golden and being one of the day 1 lynch survivors. I didn't share this because I wanted to avoid tunnel vision, but I'm also suspicious of you based on our past play history together. In a game where you had some say in what role you obtained, you were the serial killer. We've had multiple open recruitments already and I would not be surprised if you were to hop on that baddie boat.

@HOSTS When Ubzargan does the lynch switch, how many players does he target?

I figured you were suspicious of me, you did vote for me and never explain it. Or that question about how artistic i was.

And I am talking about Game Mechanics. Look at the roles, Wilgy. They're pretty wild. I am not saying dismiss discussion; I LOVE discussion. I am saying we not worry so much about being able to deduce things based on easily manipulated evidence. There are seemers, iirc there is a role that can insert stuff into the host post, there are roles with day or night ends that don't have to worry about saving it for when they need it. Vote manips. Power redirectors. People that can survive for any amount of reasons.

And I submit entries to all contests in this game. And in that game, those were the best roles, the indies, and two of the baddies, The most interesting. Even the host said I submitted the best list :D

This is the greatest and most true thing anyone has ever said about mafia. Ever. :srsnod:
Yeah, I love this as well. I agree with SVS that we can't logic our way out of the lynch switch business.
I can't begin explain how wrong this is.

Here you were disputing something MP had said. If every action is rational, that means every decision has a logical decision making process behind it. Does this mean those logical processes aren't traceable by any means?
I agree that every decision has a logical process behind it. I don't agree that we can know what that process is in this situation.

So you suggest we dismiss belief, thought, reasoning and more so discussion? SVS, you are treading down the same path that had me voting Unfurl early.

I was suspicions of you for hounding Golden and being one of the day 1 lynch survivors. I didn't share this because I wanted to avoid tunnel vision, but I'm also suspicious of you based on our past play history together. In a game where you had some say in what role you obtained, you were the serial killer. We've had multiple open recruitments already and I would not be surprised if you were to hop on that baddie boat.

@HOSTS When Ubzargan does the lynch switch, how many players does he target?
One
