VT too, not even a PR lmao

And oh yeah damo has died. He was a VT.

Unexpected poop. RIP Damo, sorry for suspecting you.

Very interesting – Damo has been one of the most passive players, and wasn't widely townread AFAICT. Not compared to the likes of say Flum.

My dilettante gut-feel conclusion is "Mafia did not like the way the Town thinking was trending and attempted to throw us off with an unexpected NK."

The other obvious explanation is Flum is Mafia – but why risk such an obvious frame back-firing when Flum would have been sitting pretty without it?

So what did the Mafia not like about the current direction the Town thinking was shifting to? Maybe this:

For proper balance in this setup, I'm quite certain there are 3 power roles hanging around, so I think we're still in a good spot, but we can't get lazy.

[KoalaAttack]

Most standout thing I recall about damo was getting around to the potential pairs. That'd be a decent starting point.

I agree on "most standout thing" but disagree on "decent starting point" – Damo has build far fewer and weaker cases than half the people on here IMHO. And didn't exactly push them hard. Besides, last game Damo got a metric ton of flak and got MK-ed for similar pair-making.

I don't think this is about Damo's reads. I think it's a mis-direction. I have no solid basis on this other than intuition though and can't back this up with any decent proof.

I don't necessarily think the damo NK was due to the direction of town progress. I think we're still pretty fractured. With what damo was pushing, there are some that still read him as mafia.

We now know that what they were thinking was on the level and coming from a town place.

So there's that.

If my last setup review is one to judge, it’s entirely based on scum PR count. Knowing Kak was a goon it leaves me to think we have a potential of 2 at most.

So I already know I won't be around eod tuesday. If a large portion of the playerbase isn't around eod, we might want to consider using the hammer function so everyone is present during the phase change

OK, that's fair enough.

Why's that?

I'll try to write up a case when I can.

We need to squash this Bozo/HB scum team belief.

I think they're both town now. Bozo looked much better today. I'll try to explain that too when I can lol

Yeah. I think it may be rdr Koala.

Well here Damo's latest. I am 100% onboard with this – I feel flipping either rdr or myself would be high-info for the rest of the Town at least.

Obviously I much prefer to flip rdr because I know I'm Town – and becuase I think there was a potential slip from rdr last night.

But given that's unprovable to you, I think I am the least-bad MK at this point given my intentional meta-obfuscation via Impersonation and the Townie Heel experiment. And if y'all suspect me more than rdr at the end of the day – pun intended – than the only logical play is to correct that before we are out of MKs.

I'd be happy to move my vote from rdr to myself, but y'all will just chew me out for "bad town play" ... So I'm thinking I'll stay parked on rdr unless there is a major new epiphany or case-building revelation someone shares.

Damo666 has died. He was a Chipotle menu item, from the panhandle.

OHHHHHH… the theme is Florida based…

Or maybe they are afraid of the Doctor?

[Fluminator]

I would be interested in Rdr's read on why damo was the nightkill.

Can I ask this without discussing the PRs themselves – statistically, in Mafia games with 3 PRs (one of which has a gun), which 3 PRs are most likely in your folks' experience?

RIP Damo

Interesting kill. Did they think he was a PR?

I would say that doctor and cop are the most common ones. After that, probably vig

We do also use a lot of custom PRs as we try to change stuff up.

jack of all trades is another one that people like to use
