M62: PEOPLE'S DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF REVOLUTIONARY MAFIA GAME THREAD!

[Balki Bartokomous]

I've met four people in this game, but Balki was the handsomest.

I was going to meet brain but he got too stoned.

I took balki to a debate tournament and people just thought he was my arm candy

Haha! That is true!

Okay, I need to get some rest cause I have to whelm kgray and emc tomorrow.

G’night.

Sorry

I think underwhelming. Last time we played together you were digging into everything and asking people to explain their reasoning, and I don't see too much of that in this game. You did question my reads, which seemed towny, but it's not a lot compared to what I would have expected you to engage in. Maybe some of that is Thanksgiving?

I don't know your alignment. I don't think you've done anything scummy, unless Neph turns out to be scum after all, but I'm still not seeing the inquiitive Balki I expected after last game.

Why did you move back to a vanity wagon at EOD? You knew Hamilton wasn't going to be daykilled. Sitting back and letting others decide the vote seems very un-Balki to me.

Why teacon over ND? What do you think of Maniac?

And don't try to buddy me

Good. Let’s reset your expectations to what just happened Day 1, and I will now whelm the eff out of you.

Re wagons, a couple of thoughts I had:

(1) It felt to me like the wagons were pretty fluid actually. I was not totally caught up, but the wagons did not feel like they were backed with much conviction. I didn’t think that a late switch to Hamilton Brian (or someone else) was out of the question.

(2) I honestly didn’t even love the HB wagon, chalk full of Balkis though it may have been. But I felt best there.

(3) I like late vote switches. I think they can generate useful information and expose folks who have more information than the rest of us. And I like them even better when I feel like I have some control over them. I tried to get a bit of that going with the Bunny move to see what would happen, but it didn’t generate much intel except for your move there. Maybe that will prove useful later, maybe not.

(4) Null on Maniac. Such a big roster! I just haven’t spent much time on Maniac, and not much of note has happened with him that I’ve seen anyway. No idea.

(5) I’m honestly very Null on teacon on too. I just felt like we were lynching ND because people don’t like him, and his abrasive/confrontational nature runs so counter to my scum paradigm that I felt he was likely town.

(1) I don't know, expecting to start a brand-new wagon with 4 votes left seems pretty out of the realm of possibilities. And how much conviction do you really expect people to have D1?

(2) I don't think I buy that you'd feel "best" on a vanity wagon, even if it's your strongest scumread. The town!Balki I know would want to be a significant factor in who was the daykill.

(3) Sure, late switches are good for VCA. But moving to vanity wagons isn't. So for clarity, I didn't have a problem with your teacon vote. The one I didn't like was the one for Hamilton.

(4)/(5) Agree, Maniac is null. So you just chose teacon because you thought that people were voting ND because they didn't like him? What did you think about why people were voting for teacon?

[kgray]

I just think having a strong opinion on him is weird

Why?

Cause I don't. I asked and your reasoning was lackluster. Why does Vecna being normal make him town? He's a competent scum player.

I've never seen scum!Vecna. What's he like as scum?

[kgray]

@durga what's your read of Balki?

[ghug]

@durga what's your read of Balki?

Handsome

[ghug]

Whoops wrong account.

[Durga]

@durga what's your read of Balki?

Handsome

I mean, yeah

[kgray]

@durga what's your read of Balki?

Handsome

I mean, yeah

Is he more handsome as town or as scum?

[kgray]

Why?

@ghug you want to answer this?

[ghug]

Handsome

I mean, yeah

Is he more handsome as town or as scum?

Balki spends time making sure he looks nice regardless of alignment. It's important to remember that.

[Durga]

Handsome

I mean, yeah

Is he more handsome as town or as scum?

Definitely town. But ask me what he is rn when I'm sober. It's null. He's a tricky one.

[kgray]

I mean, yeah

Is he more handsome as town or as scum?

Balki spends time making sure he looks nice regardless of alignment. It's important to remember that.

Do you have any real reads or are you just going to keep hedging everything?

I don't think this is a fair portrayal of my play.

Is it not? You've hardly given reads, let alone explained them, and you just keep saying you want to kill people who aren't "good" at the game.

[ghug]

Kgray what's your read on me right now?

[kgray]

Kgray what's your read on me right now?

Well you keep avoiding my questions which is like my biggest scum trigger... But you're really different from your scum game, less worried about how you look, so I lean town.

[kgray]

Tell me your 2 strongest scumreads and townreads and why. Also tell me what you think scum!Vecna is like.

Wait what questions did I avoid?
