@nutella what's your read on Tony and long con again?
Fluctuating. When I made that string of posts last night I really thought I had caught LC, but his response still has a tone that I am tempted to believe. I don't know. I still lean town on Tony but he's also in the poe.
I think I currently feel worse about Epi than either of them, oddly enough.

@nutella do you agree the role cop sender has to be town if you are town?
Not totally sure, but probably? Idk why a mafia would send a townie another townie to remove from the poe
Exactly so he's just town from your perspective and you should never ever lynch?
I guess? I don't think I'm comfortable saying that in a 100% black and white way

All two-way interactions
Note first that these analyses come embedded with a presupposition -- that Duskfall spoke truth about our arrival to Mimlo. If Duskfall is town, then there must be two mafia remaining. If Duskfall is mafia, there still could be two remaining, but not necessarily.

Personally I think dunya has been the most outwardly aggressive in a way that scum could be if they were attempting to power. Not sure if that aligns with their normal meta or not
With no meta on anyone but Dusk really my read at this point before flips is gonna be based off of wagonomics as the day goes on.
Mac needs to put a real vote down. We are past RVS.
The adverbs are real with this one.
While I could give "personally" a pass (personally, I wouldn't ), calling dunya "outwardly aggressive" is a really strange thing to say. What else would she be? Inwardly aggressive?
"in a way that scum could be if they were attempting to power."
There is so much hedging language in there I could build a maze.
DS. was looking for a way in to vote dunya without committing to it.
DS. mentioned Duskfall (whatever) but saw the need to tack on a Mac prod. Noted.

Btw just gonna say now with people speculating over 451 standards, I think if a 9-2 game was ever posted on 451 host would get flamed for it being way way way too townsided. Some of you have played there, I know at least jjj and Nutella and it's possible Nanook rebalanced but 9-2 on 451 is definitely an unfair game, 8-3 feels about even.
8v3 is not even at all.
Yes I'm burning a post to say this.
Sorry nutella if that concerns you.
The theme between these two is mutual trust without a great deal of development or elucidation. They have supported one another and left to the reader to discern why. Much of this content is superfluous, i.e. talk of setup balance blah blah. They would be quite compatible as mafia teammates.

Thought I'd check out the Rules. "I will be using KYLO instead of LYLO (Kill or You LOse), and will refer to the kill via vote as the Elimination." Is this just flavour or is there a game effect I should be aware of?
Nanook's homesite stopped using the l word due to people having insults over it due to racial/historic reasons, mu also is starting to phase it out along with other sites i have seen so l word is probably going to be used a lot less in mafia games in a lot of different sites over the next few months (or specific games at least)

To be clear, I don't actually give a shit about the wording from a "reading Dusk" standpoint. I think attempting to read a player based on the wording of his role pm is against the spirit of the game and I have modkilled people for taking it way further than LC is here and I have written dozens of fakeclaims and long paragraphs of rules mumbo jumbo to avoid this thing.
I was more talking about what a good replacement terminology for "lylo" given that we're moving away from using the term "lynch."
I was talking about what the Host said in the rules, not what you said. I don't think it's any sort of angleshoot, when Duskfall comes out and says it like that, it becomes an unavoidable issue and possible scumslip. If it were just something Nanook had mentioned in a post, it wouldn't have caught my attention, but it's literally the first rule.

There are a few isolated moments in this dialogue that I think are telling -- I have highlighted them. If Long Con is a mafioso, he has taken some angles against Duskfall that I don't think look like distancing. That "KYLO" thing would be a pretty meaningless gotcha, for example. I don't think these two are likely mafia teammates.

At this point Nutella should just claim because honestly I'm not bothered looking back to know what people are talking about, I'm sure other towns don't want to have to go pr hunting either. At this point it's been made such a big deal of and it's apparently guessable enough that mafia will be able to sort it out regardless, so may as well just have Nutella hardclaim and have Mac confirm that's her role.

In a world where role cop sending role can send a role pm to a player, though I am assuming it's targeted I guess, they always send to a partner unless they are attempting to fake clear their partner who has a townie role
So yeah if a role cop sender claims town then they are cleared unless Nutella is mafia imo

Nah. Tony was reasonable in his hesitance on Mac (I don't remember if his vote ended up there, but it's whatever, and I don't care to reassess Epi and Dusk at this time). You were not. You and Jay pushed back to make Mac being bad the dominant narrative over some very valid counterarguments from both Tony and me.

The most telling stuff here is Duskfall's commentary about nutella's role and asking for a hard claim after the hard claim had already been made. That doesn't strike me as something a mafia team cooks up for the sake of appearances; it is a bizarre interchange that to me suggests dissociation.

You're saying that you can eliminate some as partners, okay maybe, but there's no way (in my opinion) that those reads could really be solid, but hey, I don't have meta so maybe you are seeing things that I'm not, who knows, I still think it's unlikely
But let's say you're right and we can eliminate some players from being your partner
That doesn't make it so that we KNOW who your partner is. You see what I'm saying? There's not enough information
This is exactly my feelings on Leetic's appeals to "If I'm a wolf, who are my partners then, huh?"
Like I've said that as a townie....on day 4 after getting in fights with literally the entire playerlist. On D1, it doesn't mean much.
While I'm using a post, here's about where I'm at
Dunya (light green starts here)
Jiwon
Dusk
DS (yellow starts here)
LC
Mac
Nutella (orange starts here)
Leetic <- but Leetic is not scum with Epi or Nutella probly
Epi
I should be dark green btw, again, I've already lock cleared myself so it's strange to me no one has picked up on it yet
if you keep saying you’ve lock cleared yourself, aliens come down from space and rip you apart or something
hmmmmmmm alright mayyyyybe you can have a townread

Worth wasting a post to note that... Nutella has hard claimed? I think?
per Jay I wanted to see poll results and dusk fall's name is first and I forgot to change it
also I super think that Jay is scum but statistically I'm fine voting Mac because of game impact. But I'm not sure if Mac interacts about being given a role cop as he did if he's scum. So I changed my mind. Gonna wait on Jiwon I guess.
TonyStarkPrime wrote: ↑Sun Jun 14, 2020 3:03 am
So look at this from my perspective. I’m clearing dusk for getting a bad role, which was NAI exactly until DS flipped vanilla. We’re at like 4 civ power roles? 5? Actually could be 8 Civ w/ power against 3 vanilla. I take back this argument, but I also recall Duskfall being pretty heavily involved in setup balance debates in favor of 8-3. This would seem like an unnecessary risk to scum in that 3, they’d feel like they’d risk giving something away. I’m on my phone now and there’s a post limit and I can’t check all of these interactions, but I have a generally good feel about Dusk. I know it’s not me. So I’m not really a fan of your POE, Mac. (Don’t bother replying to this if you’re low on post, you can fit something in later)

i gave him a whole day to turn things around, and instead of showing me some town hunger, he laid back and did much of nothing. he poked LC but still did much of nothing with that prod (would actually look bad for LC if leetic is wolf). i feel like knowing what i do about town roles now, it is more likely this is 9vs2, so that adds to the double TMI points against leetic.
his vote on jack is uninspired too; jack clarified his post on leetic "leetic what have you done (to get all these votes)" and leetic is still parked there. no active game solving or need to try and figure things out.
epi: fair enough, but it feels like she has a distinguished spot where you'd lynch her without the need for convincing. what has LC or jack done less than jiwon to you?
It's a bias. I know more about LC and Jack in general than I do about Jiwon and thus feel I would have a better chance identifying their alignments later than I would Jiwon.

Looks like that Community Mafia is the only other game on this site that leetic has been scum in. In that one, he Made a big rainbow list of all the players and basically attacked low posters as scum in it. I'm not seeing any of the same style here. I don't like the unwieldy jump to "If I'm scum, why is no one saving me? If I'm scum, who is my teammate? Huh?" but I could see it just being a town reaction.
This reads like you are waffling on a decision. You say he's got town aspects and scum aspects but you could see the scum aspects as being town here.
So... you think Leetic is town then?
DS. gave LC shit for the latter working through his opinion about leetic. DS. claimed to suspect leetic but didn't find any support from LC and massaged that into a vague suspicion.

dunya is the reason I'm off the poll. I was notified I'd been buffed which is precisely what her role does.
Both of my top suspects have tried to play that against me now. Even if I cannot receive votes, I can be discredited.
I feel very comfortable with the state of this game. nutella and Mac could just be the team.
Give me evidence that "buff" indicates what her role does. I.e, that you are off the poll.
I would imagine that a buff is a bonus on their inherent power. I don't associate "buff" with being off the poll. Maybe that's a buff for someone who has no abilities.
I have concerns here. Epignosis has never provided a read on Long Con in this game. He hedged in that "would/would not eliminate" list, made a note about one DS interaction without a conclusion, and has left the read undeveloped. Long Con has been predominantly pro-Epignosis, albeit with at least one hedge of his own (highlighted). I would call these two compatible as mafia teammates.

Basically he was in F3 with locked-in votes, there was a player named Yeti, and DS baited out the wolf by deliberately voting for a misspelling of Yeti's name so it wouldn't actually go through, and when the other player jumped on it DS caught them as a wolf and voted them instead, and I believe it is the reason that MU added the "invalid vote" warning. It's controversial but I think it was hilarious and clever tbh, I can see why it could be considered dirty play and why they changed the vote label to dissuade it, but I don't know if I'd call it "angleshooting" per se.

Btw just gonna say now with people speculating over 451 standards, I think if a 9-2 game was ever posted on 451 host would get flamed for it being way way way too townsided. Some of you have played there, I know at least jjj and Nutella and it's possible Nanook rebalanced but 9-2 on 451 is definitely an unfair game, 8-3 feels about even.

Also if Jiwon knew she was lovers with Mac on D1 why did she seem pretty eager to eliminate him at one point (and obviously again today but that can be more excused by her awareness that many of us would like to resolve her slot) ....maybe she just figured that leetic was going to be it at that point anyway. Idk. This is weird.
Her reaction to the lover stuff is pretty interesting on a second look. She says it would be a good deal if DS is scum and then goes ahead and hammers. Is that a bus with the tradeoff of taking down a townie too? I personally think it's pretty easy to read that way. Especially since nobody really suspected DS at the time.
After the flip she says "I created the most suspicion against DS" which......isn't really true at all lol. She was more like "what the hell might as well hammer in case DS is scum" without really suspecting him much beforehand (she had like one post with some minor pressure on him tbf). I think she knew exactly what she was doing.

linki: it's not a bullshit read. your slot's interaction with DS is hot garbage and you know this. if you were reviewing that slot from a neutral position you would have it as orange, I am certain. sure there's nothing really conclusive, but to me it fits the exact mold of a teammate pairing, partially because of the lack of material.
your read on me is the fake one. You know that I only go hard on you like this as town. In FTL I kept you comfortably in my pocket. You 100% know that I don't treat you like this as scum. You're full of shit.
Besides, you are the one who broadened the POE pool too much. You concluded your interactive exercise with a 50/50 split, which is not your typical pattern. You are leaving your options open. I have exactly three suspects.
Damn I so wish I could vote for you. But I think Jiwon is pretty likely your partner here so it's ok.

@MacDougall are you the letter U? Because I love U~
Well this looks like a lover claim huh.
Would nanook really put two of these in a game of this size seeing as they could potentially take down two mafia members? That really seems unlikely to me... unless this one is different from how leetic's choice worked and can only be two townies? I'd honestly be surprised if both Jiwon and Mac are town here though, but if we're assuming a 3 person team, that's Jay + one other, and I suppose someone else could be fooling me.
I don't know. I'm eager to see what Mac says about....anything at all really.

Fluctuating. When I made that string of posts last night I really thought I had caught LC, but his response still has a tone that I am tempted to believe. I don't know. I still lean town on Tony but he's also in the poe.
I think I currently feel worse about Epi than either of them, oddly enough.
Duskfall wrote: ↑Sun Jun 14, 2020 4:04 pm
@nutella do you agree the role cop sender has to be town if you are town?
Not totally sure, but probably? Idk why a mafia would send a townie another townie to remove from the poe
Exactly so he's just town from your perspective and you should never ever lynch?
I guess? I don't think I'm comfortable saying that in a 100% black and white way
These two are not mafia teammates. Epi's aggressions against nutella bear no resemblance to the behaviors I would tend to associate with his mafia play -- particularly his attack upon her in the way of dunya being killed and his "but why" responses to her hatred of my guts.

You're saying that I'm faking a role pm clear with a role pm I haven't seen? That makes no sense. I was clearly referencing what I had from role pms since it was done in my first post.

Jiwon is confused or something. I don't know why he's voting for me. We are on way lovers. If I die he dies but if he dies I don't die. We had btsc til today and now we're locked out of it and he's decided to vote me.
I am VT but I have a psuedo clear on someone because someone sent me a random rolecop and the role seems super likely to be a town one.
I don't want to out them though.
If he was in BTSC with you and decided to vote for you immediately after, that doesn't looks so great on you.
Did the 'love' end when the BTSC ended?
I haven't been notified as such. I wasn't very active in it. I am vanilla town outside of the random things that have happened to me. I am also Ziggy Stardust. I don't know if that means anything at all here.
ZIGGAYYYYY
I think it means not much. You should at least be able to out the player you know as town, though, no? Unless it's like Epi in which case whatever. At the current rate people are going to be out of posts by breakfast time, leaving ample time for me to come in and figure everything out.
Tony's entrance into the game speaks to me here. He voiced displeasure with the state of affairs and placed the finger of blame squarely on Epignosis. Whether that was fair or not, I don't think it looks like the stuff of teammates.

No two games are the same. I had nowhere to go but to trust you in FTL, where literally my entire faction went to sleep for the whole game. You were the only other person doing anything, and credit to you for taking proper advantage of that environment. This environment is not the same, and the dynamic changes accordingly. You're a quality player with a diverse skillset that does not limit you to treating me in identical ways in every game, particularly when they are consecutive. So that is not going to cut it.

No comment on my strongest point against you I see.
I know when you're struggling to emulate your town behavior. You think you can hide in your analysis but I can tell you are nudging results in the direction you want and you are fabricating the strength of your reasoning for suspecting me. You're pushing to see how far this can go and I see right through it. Sure I'm tunneling and confbiasing and all that, whatever. You've gone past the point where I could reconsider you and instead you doubled down on your bullshit on me which in turn confirmed that I am correct about you.
When I read over your posts, it looks more like you are the one fabricating your reasons for suspecting Jay. I'm just not convinced by arguments like "I know" and "I can tell" and "I see right through it". If this were a no infodumping game, then I would be all over supporting you, but I'm not getting the meat of your accusation here.

At this point Nutella should just claim because honestly I'm not bothered looking back to know what people are talking about, I'm sure other towns don't want to have to go pr hunting either. At this point it's been made such a big deal of and it's apparently guessable enough that mafia will be able to sort it out regardless, so may as well just have Nutella hardclaim and have Mac confirm that's her role.
Worth wasting a post to note that... Nutella has hard claimed? I think?
per Jay I wanted to see poll results and dusk fall's name is first and I forgot to change it
also I super think that Jay is scum but statistically I'm fine voting Mac because of game impact. But I'm not sure if Mac interacts about being given a role cop as he did if he's scum. So I changed my mind. Gonna wait on Jiwon I guess.
I'd play the "doing my Civic duty" act if I were scum in that situation. What would you do?
@nutella why would you choose to send Mac info when he was one of your scummiest reads?
nutella wrote: ↑Sat Jun 13, 2020 3:01 pm
I sort of wondered if mac was just a scum rolecop and made up the thing about someone else sending it, but that seems a bit silly (except that rolecop is a common scum role so maybe it's a way to get out of claiming it himself). Still, regardless of where the check came from, I struggle to see the scum motivation in outing me, especially when I have been a common poe suspect/ML bait/in particular a likely eliminatee over Mac himself who is also on the table. I don't know why he'd remove me as an easy mislim in these circumstances if he is scum. Feels like there is only town motivation there. So that's my biggest hangup with Mac being scum. Jiwon is still my top candidate for today.
But he didn't really remove you from mislim. You did that by claiming the role.
MacDougall wrote: ↑Thu Jun 11, 2020 7:23 pm

Looking at your DS interactions, I get the exact opposite impression. Looks like casual buddy-distancing with DS, along with careless pushes to lynch nutella and leetic.

Nah. Tony was reasonable in his hesitance on Mac (I don't remember if his vote ended up there, but it's whatever, and I don't care to reassess Epi and Dusk at this time). You were not. You and Jay pushed back to make Mac being bad the dominant narrative over some very valid counterarguments from both Tony and me.

nutella wrote: ↑Sun Jun 14, 2020 11:01 am
Look at how Jay and LC pushed for Mac. First they pushed hard for me while I was a viable miselim. Then once I claimed they both went straight for Mac despite my arguments in his favor, without any of the hesitance I had about him despite the case on him being pretty weak, and completely ignoring Jiwon as an option while I felt she was clearly looking worse. Why? Because they knew Mac would take Jiwon down with him. They could not afford to pass up the opportunity to eliminate two townies in one day and go straight into lylo (which it would have if not for the modkill). Voting for Mac was their path to victory and they didn't put in any more effort than necessary to make it look like a well thought through elimination.
I'll have to look back into Tony and how he dealt with Mac etc but I am quite confident that Jay and LC are guilty here.
The animosity between these two has recently amped up to 11. Under the circumstances, if either of them is a mafioso, their aggression toward the other looks like opportunism to me. They've been mutually contained with the general POE pool and opened fire with visible wrath. I don't think they're likely mafia teammates.
TonyStarkPrime wrote: ↑Fri Jun 12, 2020 10:54 pm
at this point whoever has that role can claim it at any time and can be functionally cleared.
Unless someone else is going to claim a buff then the only way JJJ is lying is if he's scum, they rb/killed Dunya, and someone else on the team got him off the poll. Seems unlikely. Buff is the simplest explanation. I agree with LC's notion that that points slightly to Jay being vanilla, but only slightly.

But let's say you're right and we can eliminate some players from being your partner
That doesn't make it so that we KNOW who your partner is. You see what I'm saying? There's not enough information
This is exactly my feelings on Leetic's appeals to "If I'm a wolf, who are my partners then, huh?"
Like I've said that as a townie....on day 4 after getting in fights with literally the entire playerlist. On D1, it doesn't mean much.

Always a nice surprise to wake up and find that Jay has entered the game and done all the interactive analyses while I was asleep
I really don't even know how to defend my Jack vote lol. I had a snap read of him from his first couple posts, I fairly quickly retracted the "regardless of leetic's alignment" part but that was more due to my change of heart about leetic based on dunya's meta -- though by the end of day that had basically nullified itself and I was back to being fine with the leetic elimination, but never put my vote back both to avoid hammer and because I didn't really feel that strongly about it either way. Why my vote stayed on Jack specifically I don't have much reason for other than I was lazy, felt like my vote didn't matter and didn't have a strong case on anyone else. I did feel better about Jack as his activity progressed but never really arrived at a solid townread of him, and of course Jay skipped his own slot in the analysis so I'd have to look into DS interactions but I think the JackJay slot can still be in the POE.
As for DS, I was moderately surprised when he flipped scum but it also made things make sense in a way -- for instance the "clear" thing, I felt sketched out by that not necessarily just for hard-angleshoot reasons but because I suspect we don't actually have any vanilla townies in this game. I could be wrong of course but it felt off to me and in retrospect makes a lot of sense as a wolf attempting to get credit for being "vanilla" and the fact that it didn't land for anyone as fas as I could tell reinforced that it was an oopsie.
[Mostly-OT] Btw the "yetl" thing is a reference to an incident from a previous season of champs (that I didn't witness firsthand but have heard tell of), I believe the season that DS claims to have been "robbed" of winning lol. Basically he was in F3 with locked-in votes, there was a player named Yeti, and DS baited out the wolf by deliberately voting for a misspelling of Yeti's name so it wouldn't actually go through, and when the other player jumped on it DS caught them as a wolf and voted them instead, and I believe it is the reason that MU added the "invalid vote" warning. It's controversial but I think it was hilarious and clever tbh, I can see why it could be considered dirty play and why they changed the vote label to dissuade it, but I don't know if I'd call it "angleshooting" per se. [/Mostly-OT]
I can't speak for why DS stuck me in his town pile so easily other than assuming it was a pocket attempt.
Mac and Jiwon are my top suspects, and JackJay deserves more scrutiny as well. I have some reasons to feel more good than bad about Tony and LC. Our first three alphabetical players are essentially lock town imo.

I probably put a slot with a bunch of nothing in the POE pool, yes. Again, this is not what you did. You went straight to hot garbage, and at my first incredulous reply you took it to 11 and said I "claimed mafia". That's not "going hard". That's bullshitting.
nutella wrote: ↑Fri Jun 12, 2020 5:06 pmyour read on me is the fake one. You know that I only go hard on you like this as town. In FTL I kept you comfortably in my pocket. You 100% know that I don't treat you like this as scum. You're full of shit.
No two games are the same. I had nowhere to go but to trust you in FTL, where literally my entire faction went to sleep for the whole game. You were the only other person doing anything, and credit to you for taking proper advantage of that environment. This environment is not the same, and the dynamic changes accordingly. You're a quality player with a diverse skillset that does not limit you to treating me in identical ways in every game, particularly when they are consecutive. So that is not going to cut it.
nutella wrote: ↑Fri Jun 12, 2020 5:06 pmBesides, you are the one who broadened the POE pool too much. You concluded your interactive exercise with a 50/50 split, which is not your typical pattern. You are leaving your options open. I have exactly three suspects.
Damn I so wish I could vote for you. But I think Jiwon is pretty likely your partner here so it's ok.
Why is Tony town?
No comment on my strongest point against you I see.
I know when you're struggling to emulate your town behavior. You think you can hide in your analysis but I can tell you are nudging results in the direction you want and you are fabricating the strength of your reasoning for suspecting me. You're pushing to see how far this can go and I see right through it. Sure I'm tunneling and confbiasing and all that, whatever. You've gone past the point where I could reconsider you and instead you doubled down on your bullshit on me which in turn confirmed that I am correct about you.
Tony did some vague hinting that I didn't necessarily follow but knowing him I find that more likely a good sign than not. He's certainly my least clear non-suspect and would be my first fallback if my suspect pool fails.

Still possible it's Tony. It's definitely two out of those three. I have reason to think LC though.
nutella wrote: ↑Sun Jun 14, 2020 11:01 am
Look at how Jay and LC pushed for Mac. First they pushed hard for me while I was a viable miselim. Then once I claimed they both went straight for Mac despite my arguments in his favor, without any of the hesitance I had about him despite the case on him being pretty weak, and completely ignoring Jiwon as an option while I felt she was clearly looking worse. Why? Because they knew Mac would take Jiwon down with him. They could not afford to pass up the opportunity to eliminate two townies in one day and go straight into lylo (which it would have if not for the modkill). Voting for Mac was their path to victory and they didn't put in any more effort than necessary to make it look like a well thought through elimination.
I'll have to look back into Tony and how he dealt with Mac etc but I am quite confident that Jay and LC are guilty here.
nutella wrote: ↑Sun Jun 14, 2020 11:12 am
Lmao yeah. Page 12 is just full of both of them completely shutting down any arguments both Tony and I came up with for Mac being town, which like were actually good points that they shoved away, and then going "But the DS interactions!"
Long Con wrote: ↑Sun Jun 14, 2020 11:06 am
I voted for Mac because I thought he was bad. I think there were four votes on Mac, why not pick someone else as "the baddie who was pushing Mac", because it's definitely not me.
Nah. Tony was reasonable in his hesitance on Mac (I don't remember if his vote ended up there, but it's whatever, and I don't care to reassess Epi and Dusk at this time). You were not. You and Jay pushed back to make Mac being bad the dominant narrative over some very valid counterarguments from both Tony and me.
Duskfall wrote: ↑Sun Jun 14, 2020 4:55 pm
@nutella what's your read on Tony and long con again?
Fluctuating. When I made that string of posts last night I really thought I had caught LC, but his response still has a tone that I am tempted to believe. I don't know. I still lean town on Tony but he's also in the poe.
I think I currently feel worse about Epi than either of them, oddly enough.

At this point Nutella should just claim because honestly I'm not bothered looking back to know what people are talking about, I'm sure other towns don't want to have to go pr hunting either. At this point it's been made such a big deal of and it's apparently guessable enough that mafia will be able to sort it out regardless, so may as well just have Nutella hardclaim and have Mac confirm that's her role.
Worth wasting a post to note that... Nutella has hard claimed? I think?
per Jay I wanted to see poll results and dusk fall's name is first and I forgot to change it
also I super think that Jay is scum but statistically I'm fine voting Mac because of game impact. But I'm not sure if Mac interacts about being given a role cop as he did if he's scum. So I changed my mind. Gonna wait on Jiwon I guess.

Nutella also has a huge poe for lylo but I guess that can be shortened somewhat
Considering the amount of content here, I don't feel much of anything from it. There is at least technical compatibility in that nutella has sustained Tony as a middling or low-end read without making him a priority. Tony's handling of her is rather bland too. It's possible if not necessarily moving.

~ nutella looks the cleanest with respect to game-building, and that's fitting given her role claim. She should be challenged anyway.
~ I do not boast the same confidence about anyone else.
~ Epignosis and Long Con fit together. Gun to my head, that's the team. Duskfall also warrants closer inspection; the standard must be higher at Limlo and he hasn't done anything that provides him conclusive clearance.
~ Tony is an enigma. Again at the Limlo standard he demands attention and interrogation. Don't let anyone off easy.
~ General note: ensure you are solving the other players and not solving the host. We can never know exactly what Nanook had in mind with this setup, and there are strict limitations to purely mechanical solutions. Take your evidence seriously, but leave no stones unturned.

Mac is my top suspect. His being crammed into DS's POE is probably my least favorite thing among all those reviews.
It looks to me like JJJ has run out of "suspects" and has now resorted to the tenuous exercise of analyzing the interactions of people who are still breathing. The essential question has not changed even if you accept there are two remaining mafia members (which I don't). The essential question is never "Which two living people are bad together?" because you can only lynch one of them at a time anyway. The essential question is still Who is DS.'s teammate(s)?
May I remind everyone what JJJ said about me previously?
I wish I had more to talk about, but I like it anyway -- especially LC's handling of the lover claim. I dig.
So I'm not DS.'s teammate, and LC's probably not DS.'s teammate, but LC and I are teammates together? Just how many mafia teams are there?
Another thing:

In what bloody universe does a civilian JaggedJimmyJay hammer no lynch when there are still hours remaining in the Day phase? If a civilian JJJ is off the poll, then he knows there is mathematically less of a chance that a civilian dies. A mafia JJJ saw a quick path to the Night phase. The quicker he could silence nutella, the better.
Or fuck it, let's encourage everyone to be silent!
JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Sun Jun 14, 2020 2:49 pm
I am considering a dialogue I had yesterday in the spec chat with our friends Ranmilla and Arapocalypse about Mimlo situations -- they suggest it is optimal to engage in no hunting during this period (essentially right now for us in this open night phase) as a means of 1) saving energy for the Limlo hunt with almost all of the same information available, 2) removing one player from the focus of that hunt, and 3) limiting information for the mafia to decide their kill. It's compelling and I am inclined to give it a try here.
I still intend to review the game on my own and determine where I stand on everything. I may not share it though. I am open to dissent there. It's counter to my usual methods, but I am rather fascinated by it as a chance for personal growth and experimentation.
"Don't talk at Night in case it's the last Night phase because it will influence the kill?"
What steaming load of shit is this?
First, any influence civilians can have on a mafia faction's kill is a good thing. JJJ knows this.
Second, the privilege of posting during the Night phase is to the civilian faction's benefit because it can keep continued pressure on the mafia. JJJ knows this too.
But even if I'm generous and agree that there are two mafia members left (I don't see any evidence to support that notion), by hammering no lynch, JJJ buried the Day phase in silence and then encouraged the Night to pass in silence.
I am amazed I am even typing these sentences.
Personal growth and experimentation my ass.
And one more thing: When was the last time a civilian JaggedJimmyJay had just 39 posts total at the commencement of Day 3?

I am trying to decide if I buy your role claim. It has no bearing on your alignment, of course.
Its utility doesn't afford the civilians much of anything in terms of helping them succeed outside of gaining insight on when "no lynch" makes the best sense. And yet it's an easy thing for an informed mafioso to fake.

Mac needs to put a real vote down. We are past RVS.
The adverbs are real with this one.
While I could give "personally" a pass (personally, I wouldn't ), calling dunya "outwardly aggressive" is a really strange thing to say. What else would she be? Inwardly aggressive?
"in a way that scum could be if they were attempting to power."
There is so much hedging language in there I could build a maze.

In which Epignosis plucks out things with Duskfall's name in them and takes stances for no discernible reason. Duskfall gave some alignment-vacant dismissal of DS's vanilla thing, and that was a "small point for him". Why? What is to like about Duskfall and DS babbling over mechanics?
When I don't know why a Duskfall read exists, I can on some level attribute that to the cultural differences in our Mafia experience. At 451 for example, that kind of thing is prevalent. I cannot say the same for Epignosis. I should have some clue why he feels this way.
Duskfall wrote: ↑Fri Jun 12, 2020 3:38 pm
Btw just gonna say now with people speculating over 451 standards, I think if a 9-2 game was ever posted on 451 host would get flamed for it being way way way too townsided. Some of you have played there, I know at least jjj and Nutella and it's possible Nanook rebalanced but 9-2 on 451 is definitely an unfair game, 8-3 feels about even.
8v3 is not even at all.

I especially don't bus new people who are on my team the first Day unless he or she takes a big unavoidable dump in the thread (and DS. didn't do that from my perspective until he started shitting on me).

The "essential question" is "how do we win the Mafia game?". You're playing dumb here. There's a reason I take this approach to solving so often -- it is effective. This isn't some novel shit. You know this.
Relationships with DS are important and should be considered. When the game state clearly demands reassessment however, as you illustrate this one does with your strikethroughs, then this split no longer holds water. There must be something wrong in that green pile. That's why I have to charge myself with the task of figuring it out by way of interactions beyond just DS. Because it was DS that led me to that split in the first place. Which is why this is trash:
I wish I had more to talk about, but I like it anyway -- especially LC's handling of the lover claim. I dig.
So I'm not DS.'s teammate, and LC's probably not DS.'s teammate, but LC and I are teammates together? Just how many mafia teams are there?
You know better than this. You behave as if I am meant to plop my ass on the reads I made four days ago and hope for the best. Civilians don't win that way.

Whatever [VOTE:
No kill] aubergine
@NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME that should be hammer
In what bloody universe does a civilian JaggedJimmyJay hammer no lynch when there are still hours remaining in the Day phase? If a civilian JJJ is off the poll, then he knows there is mathematically less of a chance that a civilian dies. A mafia JJJ saw a quick path to the Night phase. The quicker he could silence nutella, the better.
Or fuck it, let's encourage everyone to be silent!

I am considering a dialogue I had yesterday in the spec chat with our friends Ranmilla and Arapocalypse about Mimlo situations -- they suggest it is optimal to engage in no hunting during this period (essentially right now for us in this open night phase) as a means of 1) saving energy for the Limlo hunt with almost all of the same information available, 2) removing one player from the focus of that hunt, and 3) limiting information for the mafia to decide their kill. It's compelling and I am inclined to give it a try here.
I still intend to review the game on my own and determine where I stand on everything. I may not share it though. I am open to dissent there. It's counter to my usual methods, but I am rather fascinated by it as a chance for personal growth and experimentation.
"Don't talk at Night in case it's the last Night phase because it will influence the kill?"
What steaming load of shit is this?
First, any influence civilians can have on a mafia faction's kill is a good thing. JJJ knows this.
Second, the privilege of posting during the Night phase is to the civilian faction's benefit because it can keep continued pressure on the mafia. JJJ knows this too.
But even if I'm generous and agree that there are two mafia members left (I don't see any evidence to support that notion), by hammering no lynch, JJJ buried the Day phase in silence and then encouraged the Night to pass in silence.
I am amazed I am even typing these sentences.
Personal growth and experimentation my ass.[/quote]
I don't care what you think of this approach. You are the world's least graceful receptor of change or new ideas. Whatever your alignment you're going to gripe with this because it's not what you know. That's what you do. I want to improve my play, and sometimes that means trying approaches that I wouldn't have otherwise considered. This is not the last time I will try this one.

1. I wonder why.
2. You don't give a shit how many posts I make. You know I can make 500 if I want to make 500.
The non-quoted shit in the spoilers is Epignosis, not me. It's a pain in the ass to fix.

You have more posts than 3J. You are a civilian and he is not.
When I keep getting post volume shoved down my throat as a civilian indicator, you can be damn sure I'm going to keep that in mind when things go the other way around.

Okay, I'm here. I sent Dusk a random role last night. I think that this counterclaims someone else, but it's confirmable by my interactions with Mac yesterday where I breadcrumbed this heavily. Catching up now.
), calling dunya "outwardly aggressive" is a really strange thing to say. What else would she be? Inwardly aggressive?
