MAFIA LVIII (58) - WITCHFINDER GENERAL - GAME THREAD

You wrote: The only way that town is going to benefit from your presence in the thread is if you’re actually doing things. Laying low is what the mafia want us all to do because it gives them human shields to hide behind so they can do the same.

I replied: Yes, you're right. But now I am present being at home.

Am I to interpret this as you promising to become active now?

[bo_sox48]

I think I have now explained everyone expect rdrivera. I think rdrivera's comments on killing the lurkers was town oriented.

Why? I’m absolutely terrible at reading rdrivera and trying to gain some insight into him, not trying to grill you.

[bo_sox48]

I mean, in my block of catchup posts there I did talk about Yoyo and his one post that didnt read mafia-oriented.

But ofcourse, its easy to forget what causes people to read whom based on what.

Your ketchup posts were at night. My question is referring to the day.

[bo_sox48]

Before forgetting during catchup, doc on Durga, desperado on seth I guess, for the rhymes heh.

Have you read the thread and do you understand the setup?

[bo_sox48]

Why have EON reads lists dropped out of fashion? I feel like 20 games ago if you didn't do a reads list that was enough to draw some suspicion, and now if you never do a reads list ever hardly anyone will blink.

Reads lists are kinda garbage

They are also fuckall irritating to do. But they created a lot of info, and in particular created space for PRs like the cop to leak info without claiming. So garbage is not the same as useless.

Easily accomplished in a variety of other ways. Post a reads list if you want, but I’d rather be left to discover your reads in your analysis, which ought to be quite apparent if you’re making any useful points.

I think d1 was likely town v town because of the lack of movement. I don't think we can really read into the wagons, I doubt the Bismarck slot is going to flip scum, I think Seth is likely town for flipping the way he did.

I don't agree with this necessarily. There was a lot of opportunity for movement around the end but very few posts compared to the norm, fewer than normal when I see town v town and a lot of folks are online. I just don't think there were a lot of people on the site at EOD. That said the only wagon at EOD1 I scumread is the one I ended up on.

I would really like to hear from yoyo and Chaqa and probably more people that I'm even forgetting are in this game.

Who else do you have in the super lurky camp? A quick glance at the starting lineup might reveal some more names.

[bo_sox48]

I wrote a wall and broke it up into individual bite-sized posts just for you, Vecna.

##VOTE SUMMIT

Wanna go halfsies with me no?

[TrPrado]

Bo*

[bo_sox48]

Sure? ##VOTE summit

[Durga]

Wait - the bismarck slot is emc now right?

I'm pretty sure this is a town slot

[Durga]

I actually wanted to join the hypo claims, but got called away just before EoD.

I dont really see how its that much of a negative. The Prs themselves are quite capable of deciding whether they want to partake, and like (I think?) yoyo said before, it might be interesting if they just hide so all the VT's take bullets.

Why didn't you say anything before you got called away. You even reacted to me saying I'd save you. Why would it have to be EoD itself if you wanted to participate

Also, it really helps narrow it down for scum? Like I said oh I'm gonna save Vecna, and you're actually scum, and you didn't die, you know I'm not wd. That's got to help somewhat? Don't you think?

I think its a lot more upside to town to actually get cop reports. Instead of us risking the WD just dying without us knowing the visits.

Id expect the WD to die naturally before scum figure it out if done smartly.

As for the EoN thing: scum might choose to change their NK to people that are not mentioned in any WD reports to make sure no save happens from that role.

Anyways, you can drop the attack dog attitude towards me, theres nothing here worth barking at. pinky promise

well if you say pinky promise then i just have to believe you!!! :)

Summit has consistently been responding to pressure by cherry picking or ignoring it. I told him he ignored my question, he asked me to repeat it and when I did I didn't get an answer. But he REALLY needed to post his EON reads instead. Not liking this.

I'm a little lost to be honest, no one is really standing out strongly to me as scum, I think I'll go back and read in a bit to see if anything can enlighten me.

I would really like to hear from yoyo and Chaqa and probably more people that I'm even forgetting are in this game.

I think there's a decent chance you're right here, but it's worth noting that many of us were expecting EoD to be an hour later, which could be another explanation for the lack of movement.

If anyone is scum there it's probably damo. Do you think damo is town this time? Although you got it wrong last time anyway.

It sounded like a fair amount of people knew the EoD time. I only remember me and Foxy being confused by it (I could be wrong)

What kind of interesting things are you looking for people to claim, ghug? That statement felt really weird.

I do think damo is town this time. He doesn't seem like he did last time.

I was confused by the EoD time as well. I thought I remembered more than just you two.

I still haven't read half the roles, so I don't know what people would be claiming, but morning is the time when people claim things and I could use some spicy info. What scum-specific motivation would there be for asking that question?

[Durga]

Hmm. There is nothing summit has done to stand out to me, I should look into that. HB should also talk more. And damo of course needs to still give me evidence of critical thinking.

Also, can someone who can actually read ghug (aka not me) tell me what he is, thanks.

why has no one given you shit for not reading the set up?

Also, it wasn't so much scum specific as it was just kinda weird like you felt the need to say something productive for some reason. I've felt you've had this all game, whereas in the last game you would joke a lot more.

[Durga]

Flash why did you disappear after I said nice things about your participation? Are you trying to make me look stupid

[ghug]

I wrote a wall and broke it up into individual bite-sized posts just for you, Vecna.

It's funny, I was about to call you out for changing your MO after someone called it scummy.

Instead, I'll just offer this up again: does anyone want to kill bo with me so that we don't have to listen to him talk? If we want to do it, we should do it soon, before there are clear-cut better options.

Probably because I'm a man.

I'm info-hungry. Last game had no info.

I don't think damo is capable of critical thinking.
