Mafia PokéMafia : a small game of mafia - Town Wins

[Dolby]

I hate doing this but the shot in the dark feels likely to miss. Lets NO LYNCH and only lose one townie by day 2 and not 1.

I'd like to lynch Dolby with the information I have but nobody is even reading or responding to the reads I have made about him and just take his volume at face value so I don't think I can Chinese Fire Drill him in 15 minutes.

**** no.

You should know that this is mechanically better

No lynching just loses us a lynch and gives us no info, frankly I’d rather lose a townie than no lynch and I don’t have the resources to argue for this, but we’re losing chances to get info

Lynching=2 lynched before LYLO
no Lynch=1 lycnh b4 MYLO

 

[Geoni]

I'm firmly not a no Lynch type but there's such a good awful LA of information here that it's going to take the time for people to understand this isn't a super casual game in order to get past three murky nulls before I feel confident.

Zelda since you are here and not lynched yet why did you vote JT?

- - - Post Merge - - -

ftr that townread is purely because her tone is pure in the posts following getting back on track for the game. I still think that her posting is kinda weird, especially in the beginning, was weird, but her tone is pure and she isn't struggling to put out content like in how she was in Caxival(which I was with her), where her scumreads were Vanessa, which she was effectively locked against her, and whoever looked worst at the moment.


They might as well have zero posted though


I never did


Will prob end up doing this later anyway, but her focus on the tameness of the me/you interactions is definetely something that comes naturally from town her. Even if we had much more activity it would be a point she'd be looking at throughout the game. After the #90, #131 felt good from her since she's explaining her read on me/you and actually providing content and not just a thread presence. I know the tone point itself from he is weird, but as scum it felt that she was letting happiness delibrately leak into her posts as a means of appearing more positive when I scummed with her last. Now her emotion is more neutral, but the tone of the posts still looks good and it's hard to say why without looking back and grabbing posts but I'm a college boy with limited time left in day now

Well you're not lynched by the looks of it so if you could reference the Bianca posts that read neutral and explain why that's concerning in context sometime during the night phase that would be appreciated.

Also Dragonboy what about our points against Zelda made you jump on the wagon and vote her? In other words justify your vote.

 

[Dolby]

I never said that I felt that her posts were neutral. I meant that the emotions were more balanced in her posts while as scum she felt obviously excited. You’re misinterpreting me here

 

[StrayBluet]

Sorry I was doing something irl.

JT hasn't contributed or said something at all, all game

 

[Dolby]

Should’ve been “and” not “but”, I rushed the last paragraph

 

[Geoni]

I don't really have the effort to go into, but right now the only people I feel are particularly compatible with Zelda are Hyrule and Bianca, whom I both townread. I don't find the responses particularly telling, but jt isn't compatible, and I want to say that I don't think that dragon votes zelda here as m/m without explanation

Gonna unvote this

The fact that no specific counter has been brought up makes me think that if Zelda does happen to be scum Antonio's the slot that's most likely teammed

All the last four hadn't posted in a few pages, what made zelda different at the time of this

I'm curious as to why you hopped back on Zelda after this compatibility argument because it makes sense and if she flips maf she might be a bus no matter what unless her vote on JT was antispew which I highly doubt from a newb.

Hayden, the only strong exception to the argument, voted Dragon. Not only did he completely ignore Zelda, the main wagon, but it was the single most convienient vote for a scum Heyden/Zelda term because they had my vote to go off of if Zelda had switched to Dragon, which would have made the votes 3-3

 

[Geoni]

Since Zelda hasn't flipped yet what are your thoughts on more recent Zelda posts Dolby.

Also yeah I didn't misinterpret that you found Bianca's tone neutral just that you found it concerning. You're saying that there's more varience here than the scumBianca you played with which I can see skimming back.

Also I have a seething hatred for days that end at 7pm it's always a scramble to steer things in the direction I want. Yes, I'm aware that it's not as mechanically sound as lynching but something in my gut still wants a no lynch because of the sheer lack of info and half the thread providing bare minimum content.

Also, gonna re-evaluate the scum equity of the dragon slot.

JT is almost so inactive that I would expect newbscum to have looked at the thread by now when day was set to end at 7pm. What is his timezone?

 

[Dolby]

I can seriously see either alignment having made pretty much any of Zelda’s recent posts. The only thing that I can draw os that she’s not aligned with JT, but there’s a lot of filler posts among them. I wish I could say that I drew something out of them but I can’t say that I felt they leaned me one way or the other on their own

JTs in England I think

 

[StrayBluet]

When do they announce that I'm lynched? I doubt that enough people will change their mind about voting against me that I won't get lynched

 

[Geoni]

Is Rhino UK as well? I read that 11pm is 7pm for him and his lack of care for EoD is still something of note. If Zelda flips town I'm going to struggle to give JT and Rhino the 'disinterested townie' pass.

Toads can Punchy replace JT?

 

[StrayBluet]

wdym by "flips town"?

He said EoD was at 7pm so just like Day 0 even though he is late I imagine he will consider votes as locked by 7pm and you were lynched. But since you haven't yet you might as well continue to post and share thoughts if you have any before he comes around.

A flip is another word for reveal. Host will make an end of day post and declare the lynched person dead, afterwards revealing if they were town or mafia.

My guess on a question like this is that you miiight not be paired with Dolby and might not even be scum.

- - - Post Merge - - -

...Yeah, Toads, I know you didn't establish traditional activity rules in the OP but traditionally if someone doesn't make at least one significant post in two day phases they are modkill do or replaced if someone is willing. Punchy is willing. I think it should be done now rather than d2 or start of night 2.

- - - Post Merge - - -

I think tbt in general was too generous only asking for one significant post per phase and a vote every two phases and as a community we should raise that to something like three significant posts per phase or new people are just going to treat it super casual like they are right now.

[Dolby]

Dad, why'd you end up revoting Zelda btw?

Regardless, still approaching him with caution, I think of it as Town indicative of him if Zelda ends up flipping town because the situation was either 1. a reaction test or 2. If Zelda was town, he only needed to actually convince one person to switch in order for Zelda to fall behind NL

If Zelda is scum, I think my PoE goes Heyden, Dragon, Dad. I don't think I really see scum Dad doing this, purely because of how weird the strat seems (backing off his primary lynch target in favor of NL), but it's a possibility because he actually has more to gain than what would appear at first evaluation if he actually were to cause an NL. He'd have got a good impression from me with respect to Zelda, reduced our number of MLs to one without letting information out from the lynch, and saved his teammate

 

[Geoni]

I honestly don't know.

Context: Dolby asked Rhino if JT is the type to follow Dolby's cop/watcher suggestion or just vote Rhino's pr choice and Rhino said he figured JT the type to follow his choice and not Dolby's (perhaps because of friendship).

Dolby followed up by asking if JT was deliberately avoiding making a serious vote until his friend Rhino did. I called this line of questioning guided because of how Dolby was saying JT could have been using cover in Rhino's vote. However, pushing that thought aside for a moment I'm still concerned about the answer 'I honestly don't know' here.

@Rhino I have a question for you based on this. You seemed to invite your friends here to play this game with you out of the desire to play a game with them but here you just plain old shrug it off and don't demonstrate that desire to analyze your friend, and your other friends for that matter. Why? Like... where's that desire?
