XCOM Mafia [Concluded]

[Sooh]

Vote: Manasi

Logic and Monty showing signs of reassessing reads, which is a good thing.

[Dp101]

More votes from everyone pls.

[El Barto]

But you also specifically called Fred's attention to your vote on him.
Should we just discount all of your day one?

No, but take it with the proverbial pinch of salt.

His impact on the lynch increased. His chance of getting Csargo lynched improved, and if he chose to vote elsewhere he couldn't claim lack of support as a reason.

OK. So why give this power to Cuthillius specifically?

Vote: Manasi

I would much prefer this waggon to the pizza-novice dichotomy.

vote: Manasi

[novice]

So why give this power to Cuthillius specifically?

He was trending up in my eyes and seemed to have a suspect set overlapping mine. I chose him as person most likely to make sensible decisions in my sleep and found a place for my vote that worked for me and worked for him.

I'll have to do something similar today probably, I get the feeling this current tally won't resemble the final tally at all.

[novice]

Ok, let's see where this goes.

Vote: Manasi

[Sooh]

This is interesting.

Hmm… That doesn't sound quite right. Cuthillius might very well have ended up not paying you the slightest attention.

You might just dispense with sleep and a normal life, as askthepizzaguy does.

Ok, let's see where this goes.

Vote: Manasi

Your self-saving vote is noted.

This is interesting.

It is!

[Logic]

Vote: Manasi

Wht switch from one bandwagon of 3 to make Manasi a 3 with your vote?

Moving from one tied wagon to make a different wagon tied doesn't seem like much of a self preservation vote. Just because the Manasi wagon is newer doesn't mean it will gain more traction. Unless you've got a reason to think that Manasi will draw more addtional votes than Pizza.

It was to see who else were willing to lynch Manasi. It wasn't for self-preservation, as you yourself explain quite well to El Barto:

It should be noted though that I wasn't voting Pizza before so your description isn't quite correct.

[Montmorency]

These two opening posts from Monty feel like signaling to the scum team that he is in fact neutral or third party.

No Lynch is not threatening to scums. It's also not very townie, although crimson also did this for reasons that look off-board-culture-y and most definitely not scum or 3p.

Monty talking about Sk/3p immediately means it's on his mind.

Why I have such a massive neutral/3p read on him, right away. Those first 2 posts.

No death last night means to me that neutral survivor or other third party hostile is likelier than straight up SK.

Under such a metric, he's gotta at least keep an eye out for scums, but his goal isn't necessarily to lynch them off. Just not die from them.

Or maybe he.... holstered as SK. That seems like a super Monty thing to do. Only Monty, really, would ever.

I might do it as SK to claim vig later, but not the way I've played this game. Not by a long shot, or a holstered one. I like to kill the scums too much, too, especially if I have a scum read and I definitely did. Fredwood would be dead today if I was either SK or vig. That seemed really decent at the time.

This has been the first game in a while where No Lynch was permitted.

If I holstered a kill, where did the Mafia kill go? Where did your suggested protection go? Maybe you attacked Fredwood and someone protected him? Or as I mentioned, someone was blocked? Jailed? Bulletproof vests? There are many possibilities, and it's interesting which ones you avoid.

He'd be really on the ball if I was scum.

Would I really? Tunneling Pizza from D1 is not just a bad idea for Town, it's a good way to get nightkilled whether or not Pizza is scum, and a good way to have Pizza lynch you fast, directly or indirectly. Maybe I was just demoralized by my read: if I immediately scum-read scum last game and couldn't do anything with it, what can I hope to achieve against scum Pizza now?

Askthepizzaguy- 100
Csargo- 80
Dp101- 60
crimson_snow- 70
Cuthillius- 60
El Barto- 50
Fredwood- 60
Winston- 55
Autolycus- 80 on Novice scum flip
------------------------
Monty (Leaning not scum)
------------------------
Manasi (one of Sooh and Manasi, I think)
Sooh (see above)
------------------------
Logic best of the remaining 4
Champ/GH- give space. Lynch at final 3 if alive.
Bsmith- Too lazy for a town read.
Novice- Too scummy to be town.

Auto can't be mostly cleared in event of novice scum with such an early vote, as you know he is prone to leaving votes like that even if it puts partners at risk without him around to change it; you did the same at least once. BSmith should be nuller. GH lynch should be sooner. DP may be a bit lower, Csargo considerably so. I should be town overall. Otherwise endorse these leans.

Monty can be the purple one.

It does strike me that novice has made more snipes than connections.
As an aside, since novice's vote onto Csargo, third on wagon, precipitated the final EOD flurry, who would you say he was trying to save? You liked Barto there, and shouldn't be Csargo unless superbussing to save yet another partner, and Jowy flipped town - so what was novice doing? Your logical conclusion would be that Sooh is novice's partner and he moved to sve her, right? And since you mentioned Champ crossposting Barto for both voting Jowy, your alternative in case of novice town would be that Chamop was trying to save partner Csargo, right? A lot of your D1 activity analysis rides on the assumption that Csargo is town. So I'm willing to see clarification by lynching novice. And the case is neat, I guess.

Let's see who you really are, Pizza.

Vote: novice

(Note that vote may be subject to change onto Pizza at any time or administrator's discretion.)

Only people today I will consider voting: Novice Pizza GH, also several others (!)

[Logic]

So, you will only consider your top 3, plus unnamed others? What gives? This sounds like a non-commital to me.

You can't fake this.

I <3 you logic, please don't be mad at me for being my example.

I have a lot of trouble believing you actually believe some of the town reads you've created this game. If we're both somehow alive D3 when my life is back in order I'd very much like to sit down and talk about some of them in very explicit detail even if just to improve my own read on the slot.

Because several posts you're town reading people for kind of make me want them dead.

[Askthepizzaguy]

@ Manasi

break the tie and lynch Novice.

Then I die, too.

And then you don't die.

[Cuthillius]

Logic here is a good example.

You can't fake this.

I <3 you logic, please don't be mad at me for being my example.

dude you're literally doing the same thing

[Logic]

Ok caught up. I'll take a look when you US peoples are awake.

I'm awake. But then again, I'm the freak that has to be at work at 5 a.m.

Logic here is a good example.

You can't fake this.

I <3 you logic, please don't be mad at me for being my example.

@Askthepizzaguy
Post game, I am going to want to know if you think this means I derp-cleared myself, because I don't see another explanation.

[Logic]

Don't you dare lynch my town core. Especially if I said you had a tinfoil or were acting "like yourself" this game.

That's pizza code for "I like you, and you're a character, but lol your reads and process in every game"

And for the record, I'm not mad unless the answer is: "lookit this idjut."

Actually, I think I found the answer.
:-(

Logic here is a good example.

You can't fake this.

I <3 you logic, please don't be mad at me for being my example.

But I guess I will take the silver lining. Pizza likes me!

[Sooh]

I guess I misread this. You were voicing your interpretation of someone else's thoughts and theories?

This was gaming out spew re: D1 based on prospective D2 flips.

kk, yeah, I misread that.

Long post about Pizza and connections, one line about me, votes for me. Scummy.

[Csargo]

This is interesting.

Why?

[Csargo]

I like Monty's post. Feels good.

[Montmorency]

I like Monty's post. Feels good.

E-evil?

Surprising that I'm getting two people to follow me when I'm so widely sussed.

Could be the scum counterwagon, as always.

[Sooh]

Could be the scum counterwagon, as always.

So you think everyone on Manasi currently are scum?

[El Barto]

Surprising that I'm getting two people to follow me when I'm so widely sussed.

Could be the scum counterwagon, as always.

It is a three-person bandwaggon, now that I think of it.

[novice]

Could be the scum counterwagon, as always.

Did you mean a counterwagon to me? I can't remember what the tally was at the time.

[Csargo]

Manasi ez lynch, not surprising. Given her play up until this point. novice vote is questionable, much like his others imo. Barto hard to say...

[Csargo]

I really want to vote GH at this point, which conflicts with my gutread of Champ, conundrum.
