MAFIA 63: THE SCOURGE [HIDDEN]

[BunnyGo]

I'll give you a hint: using the right hand side of the bot will probably make it easier.

this goon was tying things the whole day

Yuuuup (not a goon). Why did this help?

[President Eden]

Tying two lead wagons puts into focus people who aren't on those wagons, as they are potential deciders who are choosing not to decide by being somewhere else.

I miss Donny. I hope they're ok.

Is it 8 PM yet? :D

Why are you pointing all of this out now?

It’s also a way for bunny to play without having to read any of the thread

In case I die, people can go use it. That's the purpose, not just what Pres Eden said. When wagons are small(ish) and there are more of them, you get action. We can go back and see who was shifting when to save ghug. We can see who was talking about what wagons.

If we'd just made ghug's wagon bigger, or consolidated on ghug and Bona from the start, we'd have learned less.

It's also important to have it done early rather than late, because the scum team don't really know what the dynamics will be in day 2. In day 4 and 5 they have a pretty good guess of how things will go, and can anticipate how to manipulate us. But on day 2 they aren't sure what to expect and are scrambling as much as us.

What an insightful remark.

This guy's good.

I had a teacher once tell me that all good mathematicians are greedy, sneaky, and lazy.

K, I am finally alive enough to post while recovering from a hangover and getting a new tv yesterday along with stressed out doodle.
Was it a math teacher?

Yes

You know we can just scan you with the Cop yeah? I’ve been calling for that for a hot minute for a reason. We get certainty about day 1.

Discussion is pointless until both the copscan revelations and the NK.

While I tend to agree, worcej’s post has activated my almonds and I’m not sure what to make of it.

He knows we have a Cop who has a totally free hand to resolve his alignment. Wouldn’t your first reaction be “scan me” instead of “flip me” there if you’re town? Especially at night, when you have time to persuade the Cop to do it? L
It sucks that the Cop has to spend a valuable and limited resource (scans) to resolve you, but it sucks WAY less than having town miskill you.

It’s obvious why you’d take this line as mafia—a Cop scan 100% kills you, but offering to be flipped looks pro-town and not like a mafia move, so maybe Cop doesn’t scan you and town relents.

I’m not really sure what to make of it. I’m sure there is some part of the puzzle that I’m missing

I don't want the cop to have to out themselves (I am not sold it's HB) too early and if people still don't think I am town at this point, then what am I supposed to do?

[worcej]

Wait you guys actually think the Doctor saved Hamilton Brian last night?

Maybe...

Or maybe HB isn't the cop either.

This makes sense to me. However, I think it makes sense for the cop to reveal even if it's not HB. If scum are also not sure it's HB, there's a chance they'll hit the real cop instead of flipping HB. (Also if HB's not cop, it's possible they're scum).

[worcej]

Also fwiw, I'm pretty sure EMC is town.

Why?

I don't think the cop has to reveal, but if they get another scan off tonight then making 4 clears would narrow down how we hunt out the remaining scum.

[worcej]

I'll get to it soon. In my defense I'm in this massive 100 player circle game which is basically survivor on steroids where we kill someone every day. I'm currently in the top 85 and this game is insane and the people in it are insane.

If I sheep you for this round, can you tell us more about this game?

Lol, there's a bunch of tryhards and there's multiple discord/skype factions and groups warring with each other. I'm the leader of arguably the most influential discord alliance but we just took a major hit and lost one of our key organizers, and I was caught editing a screencap of someone making them say something bad in an attempt to bury them (The screencap showed the person who took it was listening to spotify (ie me) so our double agent distributing the leaks couldn't have taken it breaking apart our story AND the guy I was trying to bury is a psycho and screencapped a bunch of things to blackmail people and he happened to have part of the conversation I edited saved away to cover himself.)
I don't want to go too in depth in our plans for future rounds because there's a nonzero chance someone will find this post. The fact you're asking me this makes me wonder if you're in this game and trying to get info tbh. These people are just that crazy.

Huh, this game sounds crazy and interesting.

[worcej]

and do you think i'd bus brain when we just nailed ghug

You apparently think I would

All the scum except perhaps BunnyGo were bussing brainbomb.

Considering how the votes went, why even bother saying this...

I think they should reveal with like 3 seconds left in the night phase and say what they've seen so far. Then they tell us more info tomorrow. Considering that the medic is still around, they'll probably also get another scan off in addition to that. I really see no downside to revealing.
