Rampage Out of Space

[Winston Hughes]

Ibn-Khaldun in full:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

I have been keeping my eye on the thread.
Don't know who to vote yet.

Don't think Rask is mafia.
Csargo could be one?

Vote: Borg


Cause I like to see the tie mechanic..

Claiming a role on D1 is not good for the town.

If he is a regular townie and he claims a role like that he might clear mafia from suspicion as the game progresses. Bad for the town.
If he actually is a Cop like he claimed he just made himself a target for the mafia. Bad for the Town.
If he is mafia claiming to be a Cop and the town actually believes him then he could clear another mafia. Bad for the Town again.

I haven't played mafia with him before unlike some of you so perhaps this is what he does usually in games...

So, I checked the Tally from the last day..
I think the bandwagon on Rask was all townies. If the mafia was smart they'll just let it happen and vote for someone else so they wouldn't be connected to the Rask lynching.

This is the tally from D1. Btw, it seems Monty didn't remove Tims vote on Dolby after he had voted for Borg. I got confused for a second seeing Tim voting twice..


I think the other mafia could be one of these: Vroendal, Nanook, El-A or Winston

Vote: Vroendal

Unfortunatelly I don't have the "he played wolf in the last game this way so he must be wolf in this game as well" meta that a lot of you use. I haven't played mafia for almost 7 years and the only person I have played with is Csargo I think but even then it was long time ago.

Why Vroendal? Cause if he ends up being mafia then Winston is more likely a townie. Also, cause Tim voted Borg I like to believe he is not mafia either.

You maybe right. I recognized your name but wasn't sure if we actually played mafia together or it was from somewhere else.

Why were you quoting your own post here?!

I would add Vro there instead of Csargo but if you are convinced that he is town then so be it..

Vote: Garden Gnome

So I checked the tallys from previous days..

Everybody who have voted Dolby have been killed or voted off.
On day 1 El-A and Nanook voted for him and next day El-A gets pushed and voted off.
On day 2 Nanook and Gnome vote for him and there is a push against Gnome on next day.
Day 3 and Nanook, Panda and Laurentus vote for him.
Night 3 and Panda and Nanook end up dead.
Perhaps I'm reading too much into it but I think Dolby should be voted off..

Vote: Dolby

I think one of them was. Perhaps Panda but Nanook was killed by 3p?

And like pzelda said

Not sure.. I would go for Vro.

We need to get mafia today.

The SK's choice to hit two low posters is probably significant, but as yet I'm not sure why.

The SK's choice to hit two low posters is probably significant, but as yet I'm not sure why.

the obvs answer is that the active players aren't suspecting the SK of being the SK (or a wolf) whereas the low posters were, but that's also the path of wifom and ruin so eh?
I'm not sure finding the SK is super important as of yet, I'd rather find and chop wolves.

Need to try and see the whole picture.

What scum and sk think of each other could be the key to catching both.

[Winston Hughes]

The sk wants to chop town and kill scum.

Scum want to chop the sk.

Vote: Dolby

IK's case on Dolby seems:

i) believable, in that there is a coherent villain-hunting thought process going on

ii) plausible, in that it presents evidence that does look bad for Dolby

[hollowkatt]

The sk wants to chop town and kill scum.

Scum want to chop the sk.

Scum only want to chop the SK if they think the SK is wolf reading them. Otherwise scum want the SK to keep shooting townies, especially townies they can't get chopped b/c it makes their lives easier.
While the SK is killing townies the SK is wolf siding, yeah?

[hollowkatt]

Sure, that makes sense. Except that we have one dead scum, no dead SK, and a shitload of dead townies. So trying to determine what wolves think of the SK and vice versa is functionally impossible. As soon as we hit another wolf it becomes a lot clearer I think.

I'm currently voting Dolby b/c of how strongly he thinks I'm SK b/c I struggle mightily to understand how he gets to that read

[Winston Hughes]

In the abstract, of course.

Reading players, though, the fact that each team is hunting - but for slightly different things - is the one thing that fundamentally differentiates them.

do you think dolby more likely scum than sk?

[hollowkatt]

do you think dolby more likely scum than sk?

I haven't thought about who the SK is, so yeah, I think dolby is more likely scum than SK

[Dolby]

the obvs answer is that the active players aren't suspecting the SK of being the SK (or a wolf) whereas the low posters were, but that's also the path of wifom and ruin so eh?
I'm not sure finding the SK is super important as of yet, I'd rather find and chop wolves.

yeah I'd rather find wolves and I don't think that HK is one

[Winston Hughes]

hk/dolby vs ibn

[hollowkatt]

hk/dolby vs ibn

what, if anything, has ibn done that is townie?

[Winston Hughes]

It was almost certainly scum-hunting, though.
