What if I were to tell you that you've been cornered in a POE struggle and have tried to break out of it by proposing any theory that comes to mind which can insight paranoia and decrease trust in the civilian core?

I would say. Lol. You're wrong. Very creative though.

The townslip crap isn't terribly important in the grand scheme of things. I don't think any mafioso expects to be taken seriously saying that about [whoever].

Sorry Sloo but this game was too hard Sloo. 2hard4mac.

I had to be sure. You went on the warpath the last time a made a joke in a mafia game.

I also can't do anything about the stuff Owner said about me, which seems like where near all of the meat is. So here we are.

I think we made the best decision I could come up with and that's all anyone can hope for in any lynch.

I think we should lynch Jay next just to give me and Sloo a fighting chance.

Don't give up Sloooooo

Slooooooo noooooooo

God damnit that Jay quote is the best thing anyone who isn't me has ever said in a game of mafia holy shit what an incredible quote.

You keep calling it a “case”

There's no need to continue your analyses Jay and nutella because you have captured us. Right Sloo?

The Mac and Sloonei interaction should be fun. I’ve avoided the ones with a thousand posts tonight. Maybe tomorrow evening after football festivities. I think it’ll still be night. Lemme check.

Okay no it looks like the night ends tomorrow evening. That will pose a problem for me. I will try my best.

I am sure you will find us most compatible.

At least we know Mac is bad now. The Sloonei connection on this page is WIFOM junk so I don’t care.

Lmao the last 25ish posts are the funniest shit this is great

Pretty chill how this whole game has been the entire thread getting super fucked up and casually dunking on the mafia

Sloonei wrote: ↑Wed Nov 07, 2018 2:53 pm If Quin is bad and was targeting his teammate Long Con, what ability might he have been using?

Aimless question.

Let us take a step back for a moment in the Mafia History Books. What does Sloonei do? Above all else, what is the thing that Sloonei does in mafia games? Especially early in games, when a clear direction has not been established? Does anyone know what Sloonei does? Who will tell us what Sloonei does?

Sloonei asks questions. Why does he do that? To get answers. Sometimes he has the answers, but asks anyway. Other times he does not have the answers, and so he asks. In this game, Sloonei does not have answers. He asks questions that he hopes will incite insightful discussions. They are no aimless. This question is not aimless. Quin and Speedchuck created a controversy that consumed the thread. Everyone except sprityo debated it all day, and nobody came to a satisfying conclusion. In consideration of the possibilities, one must wonder what scum Quin was doing targeting scum Long Con in the event that Speedchuck told the truth. This was not something I'd seen being considered. I wanted it to be considered. Do you have a proposed answer to my aimless question, master?

Sloonei reviews the mechanical controversy and ends up with a bunch of opinions in conflict with each other and no conclusion. speed's claims are "more calculated" and Quin's are "more improvised" -- both of those sound bad.

Both of those are bad. That was my point. I didn't write those words with the intent of offering a definitive conclusion. One can say that I'm waffling and I won't fuss about it. The point of that exercise was to wrap my head around the events and try to offer whatever interpretation I may. Those were the interpretations I came up with. In the moment I was unsure which I preferred.

I've decided, at least for now, that I side with Quin. The questions about speedchuck's motivation for watching Long Con are too much to ignore. His claim felt calculated, as if he was trying to entrap somebody. What reason does a townie have for telling us all that timmer didn't kill Long on?

~~~

Conclusion

I note a lot of concerns here and nothing stands out to the contrary.

RED

Mac thinks sarcasm is a way to get meta credit. So I will take his comments at face value.

I care about the roof, I'm just not spending as much time underneath it.

Omg sloonei is so bad

Not really I am kind of just trying to entertain myself on this long night full of Jay posts.

For what

Are you *on* the roof though

I realize you ask questions Sloonei. So do I. One has to judge a few things about each question:

1 - does the question promote a hunting strategy
2 - does the asker of the question intend to use any answer received for some clearly evident purpose
3 - is the question authentic
4 - is the question necessary

I called your question aimless because I have doubts about #2.

Or perhaps through the roof?

It means I think you’re compatible as mafia teammates. While you’re both alive it’s not really a case. It’s a part of a larger reductive effort.

Don't listen to him sloon we know you're bad

Does this exchange mean anything to you?

The biggest issue to me on Day 4 was Quin/Speedchuck. I wanted to figure it out because I felt, and still feel, that there's meat on that bone. In a game like this one, where I'm not as fully invested as usual, I can't always be on top of every single thing. Sometimes I'll float an idea simply in the hopes that somebody else will latch onto it. My posts reflect my thought process and the questions I've had as this game has gone along.
