Mafia 87: Madness in Mega-City One - GAME THREAD

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

If player X wants player Y to be mayor, we should be suspicious of X and Y being paired

This is really the opposite of what we should be doing.

Mafia are trying to avoid being caught and trying to avoid associations with partners. They are unlikely to be running around on the first day campaigning for their secret buddies.

The previous games post from Balki quote is totally fucked on the bot

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

Brain seems seriously off. Does he normally not reveal his read progression? I found a Ham and damo scumread without any reasoning why

You're wrong.

[sweetandcool]

I don't endorse this strategy because we'll never actually do it and it would be bad even if we did and even if it were me but I do if it's me because I like power.

Parse that, assholes.

I'm not participating in this mayor stuff, but honestly I already determined that I would sheep you unless I feel strongly about someone. So I guess that is effectively a mayor vote.

Why would you do that? History suggests I'm only good at catching scum D1 if you're scum. Thus I can only conclude that you're inclined to sheep me because you're scum.

Given that I've only played a few games I find it hard to believe that history suggests that you are only good at catching scum D1 if sweetandcool is scum. I know you've played tons of games without me.

If I were scum, you would catch me regardless of what I do, so you using my comment that I would sheep you as a reason to suspect me seems incredibly disingenuous.

This is absolutely not what I would expect from you.

My heart right now is at ##vote damo666

I found his Post #338 to be appalling:

Balki is first to hit 4 votes, and the wagon completely evaporated.

We may have our first candidate for being the mean machine

So, we either ensure we DK him or have no votes on him.

Let's kill him.

##vote Balki

Seems like he ought to have a bit more curiosity and thought behind this action if he were trying to solve a puzzle here. Instead, he quickly endorses Brainbomb's theory, without any doubt or suspicion.

I think damo is town.

How come you think that?

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

One weird thing with damo’s post is that when he said ‘we either kill him or have zero votes on him’, this implies that Balki is confirmed to be Mean Machine Angel. At that point, why would damo even have the option to give him zero votes?

He seems very uncommital.

@food, @brain, what do you all think of ghug?

##VOTE BRAIN

Other than ghug, whom he isn’t and has not voted, brain’s scumreads have had absolutely no progression. In his town games, he usually reveals it. This is not a brain town game

[Balki Bartokomous]

I think damo is town.

How come you think that?

He seems very uncommital.

1. What about him seems "uncommital"? He hasn't posted very much, but the posts he has made seem quite committed. The post I quoted above was extremely "commital," less than 24 hours into the game: "So, we either ensure we DK him or have no votes on him. Let's kill him. %%vote Balki"

2. Why do you think that an "uncommital" Damo tends to be Town!Damo?

You might be right, but for the wrong reasons. I think what you are seeing is a symptom of him being busy.

Read all five of his posts together. Do they paint the picture of someone who is convicted? No, absolutely not.

I think recently people have been wrongly scumreading his D1 play. And his play so far aligns with his normal D1. And since his normal D1 has been pure townplay the last several games, I townread him for it.

That being said, if he is not Town, then we'll be better prepared to sort him properly in D2 or D3.

But he did have progression on ghug, which is strange

Progression on ghug? All he's done is post without provocation that he feels all conflicted about ghug because of last game.

I haven't seen any "progression" on ghug in regards to this game.

But he at leSt gives reasons and explains himself. With damo/Ham that isnt there

##VOTE ghug

Given that even the internal logic of the post crumbles under minimal scrutiny, I purport that ghug was probably joking.
