M89: Baldurs Gate Mafia Game Thread

Nope. If Ham flipped scum. It was a response to a bussing accusation.

That's awfully convenient

I said it BEFORE the flip lol

Yes, which means as scum you would know you have nothing to lose, but as town you'd be putting yourself at risk. IE this is a safe scum play and bad town play

HB is dead but he is not forgotten. D1 town logic is always problematic because we don't have enough data to do more than tinfoil, but as I have become an adherent of the Temple of the Frog God, let's see what HB's guts told him. We know at the least that his gut checks were presented sincerely and authentically.

Here is a moment where HB's spidey senses go off:

What's with the quick Jamie wagon right out of the gate? That's absurd.

Vecna, Sweet, Squigs...giving you three the hairy eyeball.

HB makes larger reads lists, but I don't consider these as valuable because once you start trying to slot lots of people at the same time, you risk falling into the trap of needing to categorize all the players and hence make dubious inferences. Let's ignore those.

Here is another place where HB makes statements that are, to me, "non-sensical," but in retrospect, they show that HB got "good vibes" off king/Balki and bad vibes off Dip&War:

I swear HB just posted more reads while under a little pressure, than he posted all of last game combined.

Yeah. That's a bad reads list. Strong town on king? Town on Chaqa (he's been absent for a good reason, which should be a null)? Scum on me, you, and food?

To be fair, King's reversal of their vote and the rationale...innocently town (as I currently read things). Your END vote...just pulling that card out of your pocket seems disingenuous and not town helpful.

HB essentially directly declares Will is scum in the below, but again, like the more extensive reads list, this may be too "logical" for a D1 read and hence have minimal value.

If you think mafia are jumping on you to save Damo, then you think Damo is scum right?

This is good

I think you're buddying.

Towards the end, HB essentially tunnels D&W. He starts to pick apart D&W more and more, but I think this is based on his initial gut-checked scum read which he decides is worth following, and thus wants to prove with more logical arguments as he goes.

There seems to be the most earnest value in HB's scumreads of D&W, Vecna, Squigs, and sweet... though those latter three he never comes back to in any significant way, so his "truest" scumread in the end was D&W.

Considering there's hasn't been a single argument for me being scum yet outside "I might be lying about x", it makes me think this might be coordination to protect Brian

True that

Rip for a sec I thought Ham was still alive

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

Its been said a few times that there are 5 maf

Because Will knows this to be absolutely true because they are mafia?

its only a matter of time before mafia starts instructing their players to ask about the number of scum now. It wouldnt even surprise me if thats exactly what just happened to HB.

Since when is our boy HB actually concerned about the setup?

Vecna scumming to scatter potential miskills?

Panics

Im not gonna lie but damo looks real bad w a ham flip

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

##vote Flavius

Get his teammate Ham 2m.

This looks infinitely worse for damo

@Jamie

I want to inquire your opinion towards this post previously made in this game:

m89 - kotp vote change.png


here is the link to it:

I would appreciate if you give your thoughts with some amount of detail here

When I saw it, I assumed I would then see him unvoting, shortly after.

I have done the same in the past when the rules were like this. Like, self-voting and then immediately unvoting, and thus meeting the rule without any impact.

However, I notice that he has not done that. He has kept his vote on himself. That is odd behaviour.

Why are the quotes all f’ed up

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

Guys I have been open and honest that my Flum vote was based off of one thing and his tadpole stuff, and he's doubled and tripled down on it, but that cant be it; I was HOPING to find more stuff against this man but I dont have anything. The HB wagon is just silliness but the damo wagon? Im not sure its not nothing

Hm okay character development

[Squigs44]

Given Bunny's posts during N1, I would say Bunny/damo is more likely. I'm not sure I understand Bunny's progression on their read of damo

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

Fuck this shit im not reading 30 more pages

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

I would vote Bunny

[Squigs44]

I also find a weird shift for Bunny day 1 to day 2, in volume of posting and tone. Maybe Bunny just got tired of RP or finally caved to the complaints.

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

Balki? What

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

Its day 2?????

Tf it is not

I didn’t miss that many pages

[Squigs44]

Hello Will. I don't think I've looked at you yet, which means you probably haven't done anything interesting that caught my attention. Got any hot takes for me?

I meant day 1 to night 1, my bad

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

Also yozoyo

[Squigs44]

Okay I reread all of Wills posts and can confirm he has done nothing impactful. The vibes are super chill but I can't tell if town or just Gen Z. I look forward to hearing more impactful stuff from will and seeing votes that actually mean something, not just a stray Flavius vote
