M89: Baldurs Gate Mafia Game Thread

[aarodactyl]

I checked the Setup.

There is a PR called a Druid which can perform up to two Doc saves.

Very interesting that some people immediately assumed this did not happen.

I’m not sure where you’re seeing this? I’m seeing the following roles from the google doc:

“ Steel Will: You will be able to survive an attack once per game.”
“ Unarmored Defense: You will survive one attack during the day, or the night, once per game”
“ Circle of the Land: You may save a person from dying at night, non consecutively.”
“ College of Trickery: At night you choose a player, if any actions target this player those actions will fail.“

It’s possible I missed one or two. There’s a lot

unless this is a claim, its probably more sensible to just have the receiver claim it.

Just instructions for the receiver of the tadpole.

The important thing is that we don't fixate on this and actually find people doing scummy things. Even if a recruitment has happened, we can solve for that later after we have more info

Just when I finally started townreading people lol. Better now than later though

Yeah, I agree. Not much point speculating right now, I suppose.

You've been flirting with evil too long. You're most likely tadpoled

[Ezio]

It's super likely mafia went for a recruitment here, and that's the most punishing scenario so I think it's best if we assume that.

Historically replaced players have a higher likelihood of being mafia aligned.
Bai.

[Fluminator]

So somebody got tadpoled huh? I'll check the doc to see if there is another mech explanation but probably tadpole.

I'm offended it wasn't me ):

I’m finally caught up again (well technically a page behind because this is the most recent post I’ve read). If no one else has done this by the time I’m all the way caught up, I can do this (mostly because I’ve been pretty unhelpful.

@flum: might not be able to do your request about iso’ing you and bunny before eod. Will try though.

Basically, he said he saw Balki's death in the bot, and not Damo and Dip's, even though they're literally in the same place one line lower

[Vecna]

oh now u wanna apply that huh

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

Hmmm, or do I?

What reason do I have for townreading Will?

Maybe I don't. I should review him.

Will is playing low key this game which makes me wonder if he's Scum That Gone Done Learned His Lesson.

He has been quite low key. And yet, he has also posted quite a lot. A relatively high post count, but a relatively low impact, can be something of a red flag.

Its like you dont even know me

Contriving a reason to get on the winning wagon?

It was still 10-9 at this point but I feel like Balki was the heavy favorite.

I disagree with this assessment. The wagons were 10-9 with Balki in the lead, but Balki was self voting at the time. With me voting it makes it 11-9
Assuming Balki switches back, it would still only be 10-10. My vote essentially only tied it, with 5 minutes left in the phase. If I vote dip, the EoD wagons might have flipped.

Foxcastle and Bona both voted after me and explicitly stated the only reason they did so was to avoid the tie.
Here's foxcastle:
"↑Vecna: "we need a bigger gap so it cant be tied"
UGH

@@VOTE BALKI
"

and here's bona:

"@@vote balki

tie avoidance, prefer the other kill
"


If I'm on Dip, that doesn't happen.

Trueee Ezio could have saved Balki here, and Balki was townread by a BUNCH of people, A LOT of people thought it was TvT, no way a mafia strat would be to take down Balki when he could have been saved. Ezio is a town

This is too black and white for my liking. A bus is still very possible here. And I don't really agree with Ezio's assertions on thread sentiment. The people he cites were already on Dip, so it's not like they were new potential votes to save Balki.

I think my assertion on thread sentiment may have also been too strong, but I stand by my argument.

[ghug]

the appearance of this slot at this time with this post is also highly suspicious.

Stop copying me.

You really agree with that take?!

I already called it out.

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

My theory is ghug is probably mafia that was saved by his team using the 2 wagons power up

I have an inkling that the mafia team is shitting the bed and ghug was someone they wanted to keep alive

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

can we actually kill both of these guys

This was a particularly interesting thing to say, in retrospect.

im so smart

Crumb?

[Fluminator]

ghug, have you stopped doing the "If I die kill xxx" jokes at eon for awhile now?
