Mafia 88: Murder at the Meadery - GAME THREAD

[ghug]

no, i don't care why you're not using it now. explain your thought process when you made it

Well, I wanted to organize my thoughts around how the bee sting affair could happen. So I found I could not come up with a reason as to why Town would claim the kill. However, I found that Mafia may decide to claim it. Combined with the fact that it was so conveniently awful, it made me think damo was Mafia.

the post in question has a model of a town player who plays to survive by refusing to claim in order to avoid flak, and a model of a scum player who seeks towncredit by claiming it. how does that make sense? would not a scum player seek to mimic the town play, and could not a town player seek to be honest about mistakes?

it just seems to me a pre-fitted conclusion with warped logic

But is that scummy though

[Vecna]

I feel like this is the first game where I’ve seen the use of “anchor.” What is that?

Damo, you have to get off of me. I mean, really, pull back the hounds. Unless you’re scum.

Clearly I haven’t spent enough time reading.
Letting all things be equal, Bunny appears most town.
Enough analysis makes me think we solve this by Day 3 or 4.
Reflect on what Will published; the answers have to be there.
Keep on truckin’, y’all.

Sweet, if I met you walking down through our town, I’d high five you and say, “Got past D1, man!”

Where in this does he say he does like voting for new players exclusively "during D1"?

I said I don't like killing new players.

I didn't say I won't vote for new players.

Those are two key differences. Other factors gain more weight as the game progresses.

You said you were just causing ties, though, did you think your votes might end of DKing Bonatogether or damo?

Potentially. That was fine.

[ghug]

Is town!bozo usually this useless?


@bozo: has there been some irl changes for you?

I wouldn’t call him worthless, just tunneling randomly

ghug has accused me of doing what I would consider the opposite of tunneling.

Tunneling is more likely to come from town.

[Vecna]

snip all the pretty pictures and statistics

This is quite a bit of nice work put in to that piece of data. What does it tell you about the space where the 2nd mafia generally joins?

[ghug]

Read my posts! I want attention.

I agree with you about Vecna. Otherwise, not sure what you are expecting a response for.

How about the thing about Damo actually looking fairly townish for targeting Foodcoats, given there is little sign in Foodcoats’ ISO that he is beekeeper and foodcoats was a fairly likely daykill target at that point?

I think you're biased by the read you had before. I thought foodcoats was town af, which makes me especially upset by the kill, but the truth is probably somewhere in the middle. I don't get the sense that food was an especially likely kill.

[ghug]

How many mafia are there? I thought there were only three but I’m reading these posts and it’s making out like there’s four?

Bonatogether already used that town slip. Why did you think there were only 3?

This is a good example of bona still getting a ghuglike child.

Not seeing enough from Vecna today. And Town!Vecna just doesn’t care about being my friend like this Vecna does.

I always like to interact with whom is posting at the time if im not catching up.

Also, expecting me to be posting when its 5am in my timezone is a bit yuk.

[ghug]

And we appreciate that you made the attempt.

I am not swayed, however. And I am disturbed that you seriously included two dead people in them.

That seems more likely from a town player to me.

Draft mistake. :U

Wait what

[ghug]

I would expect nothing less from someone I am accusing, but reads were asked for.

The one thing that stands out to me from your post is that you said you "reread this thread three times", but were apparently not aware that DrFidelis subbed out after posting only 3 times, or that foodcoats was the victim of a vig shot. Can you explain this?

That's probably because I forgot to take them off the list when I typing up my read list on mobile, though I also have docx. with them off it, so I maybe I posted the wrong copy.

Oooofff

[ghug]

I also feel horrible about this, but Sweet is on my scum list, so:

##Vote sweetandcool

I'm willing to switch to my other three reads, name Jamie, Bunny, or Food.

Na it's fine.

Though I humbly request you switch to your top scumrrad, Food.

I wouldn't necessarily make him my top scum read, but I would like a rationale before doing so.

Hall of Fame post

##CUTE hambone

[Vecna]

I'll generate further reads on the remaining three players, but I feel confident enough in Vecna, Bozo, and Bunny to put that off for the morning.

That's an awful lot of town reads.

Could you tell me more about your opinion on Food and damo's connection?

That reads list is so fake. ##vote lordofwords

the guy was unaware that the target of the NK has subbed out.

Do you really think that was faked?

Because that is generally what you actually call a real townslip.

[Vecna]

By definition, there are going to a lot more town reads than scum reads.

For clarity, my scum reads are Jamie, Food, and Bunny, such as they are.

I guarantee you’re wrong.

By all mean, explain why I am wrong about you in your eyes, then.

Even the consecutive post exchange with bunny just oozes townyness. Dude is visibly proud of what he produced and dares anyone to disagree.

LoW went from absent to locktown pretty much instantly.

This feels like angry mafia annoyed an easy misskill slipped away.

I have not been wrong on this slots alignment in a single game.

Wow, thanks for making it easy for me. I always struggle to read you, but if you are always correct about my alignment then the only possible reason you could be incorrect is because you are Mafia.

[Vecna]

This game just got made a lot easier by the newer players putting in a few killer posts that pretty much absolves them.

The irritation with certain players is palpable.

Maybe im wrong about 1, which is likely either Rdrivera, Kotp or Bona if some weird bussing occured.

But for now, fuck whether any of these slots bussed or not, thats a crapshoot anyway. Reads reign supreme.

[damo666]

LoW

I suspect the "reread 3 times" is out of date and explains the scumread of deadtown. Continuing to do so indicates being a long way behind.

This is giving him the benefit of the doubt.

When he next posts I want him to declare whether he was has caught up. Ofc if he hasn't he may not have read this so if there is no such declaration please badger him to say how far he has read to.

Once caught up I'd like to see a revised readlist.

Sparta - townpoints for that analysis.
