Mafia XXXV - The WebDip Class Reunion

[Ezio]

If you're town and you want to prevent a mislynch you have to peek.
Only way to lycn scum today is for you to peek.

So my two top scumreads are away, one sunbathing in Puerto Rico and the other fighting the elements in Alabama, so that means I won't get any truck if I try to lynch them.

Durga and tham still look pretty much town to me, even though I don't get tham's sundry misquotings. @Tham, can you tell me something about your "townslip"? Why did you think there were five mafia instead of four?

Ezio and bozo are both town until someone convinces me otherwise.

That leaves the hard cases: ghug, nesdunk, rd and Fox. I think ghug has good chances but everyone else is townreading him, Fox is the least likely of this group, so I'm going to start the day with ##VOTE nesdunk.

I was reading the role doc where it says 5 mafia from the original setup.

[bozotheclown]

I like Durga's idea of how to use the oracle.

@rd - place your vote on ghug or foxy knoxy

If I have to choose I will vote Fox as I have been townreading Ghug on his reactions game long and Fox reaction to pressure seems less natural, his reasoning on the rb was prety forced too. Either one of them is the Hooker or scum just didn´t want to risk giving town soft clears.
But I still think Bozo or Xorxes are the best options for the lynch today.

No. You have to choose.

Haven't read much, but it makes total sense that you two should peek. You're both tied at 3 now.

[rdrivera2005]

Ok, ##vote Fox then.

[ghug]

Alright, the oracle shit is actually sensible and I should have thought of it and y'all are definitely gonna force a peek at this point anyway so I'm gonna PM the GMs. I townread foxy more heavily than I did when today started though, just for the record.

[Ezio]

Hey guys I was doing a rereading of ghug and I found this line I think is meaningful:

"Jamie, you continue to be an idiot. The bo_sox tag is a deterrent to peeking. It also allows us a clear or confirmed scum at some point, although obviously that point isn't yet."
-Ghug

The important line is the idea that Bo Sox makes peeking risky; it's only risky for scum. He later describes that, but this line looks easily like it could be a slip. What townie wouldn't want to peek and get revealed? Clearly scum don't want to be revealed, and I think that quote is a perfect example of someone thinking not like a townie, but as scum.

Omg that's beautiful I love it. Are you this smart as town?

[Ezio]

Nah.

[Durga]

What page is that on

[Ezio]

Page 7 in the middle of a whole bunch of "useless mechanics discussion"
:p

[Durga]

Ok I read it in context and it's less weird. He's just explaining it's function

[Durga]

Hmmmm. I'm null on the point

[Ezio]

I think it's just as bad in context. Jamiet is asking what the point of the Bo_sox nametag is.
Ghug's answer is that it's a deterrent to peeking. That is not how a townie would answer at all.

[ghug]

The power of the bo_sox48 role is that it's a deterrent to peeking [to scum]. Obviously.

Do you actually believe the shit you're saying?

[Durga]

I definitely think ghug is the rb who thinks he might be dammdaniel and therefore isn't using his power. He's also probably reluctant to check because he doesn't want to be Bo. I think foxy is likely town

[ghug]

I legitimately would have checked N2 if I were scum. The order to peek is in now, as I already said. You'll get your damn answer in the morning. And then you'll probably lynch a townie on mechanics and we'll be a day closer to losing with little useful to show for it.

Also I take it back. I said it's a deterrent to peeking and it is for everyone. It's bad for scum and PRs, and clearing a VT day one is useless because they'll just die. It's worse for scum.
