WebMafia Olympics: Bonus Qualification Round

When I ask Yoyoyozo a question, Dip&War answers it.

Interesting.

This is interesting

Is it though? What Jamie making an astute observation or was he taking the piss out of those two?

Interesting.

This is interesting

But not because I think it pairs them (which is what I assume jamie--rip old chum--was implying)

Then why do you think it’s interesting?

[Hamilton Brian]

But I did vote Haze because I was the only other viable wagon at that point; when nobody was around to vote at EOD.

What do you mean nobody?

[kingofthepirates]

Which is why i am willing to give Dip some latitude today.

I think anyone that Jamie ruffled or vice versa, I don’t think I’ll consider them today. Yoyo, Dip, bunny, Damo.

I am thinking mafia made that kill to implicate any of that group. I am looking elsewhere to vote today.

I can maybe get behind this, but again I think its all negligable since mafia might've made the kill to protect, not to implicate (maybe even a combo of both!). Also, what do you think of Will (not including him in the pool)? iirc jamie was similarly upset with will for a time (or am I misremembering and jamie was only really upset at dip?).

[Hamilton Brian]

King, why would people that Jamie was negatively interacting with kill him? Doesn’t that lead us right to mafia?

Do they want a clear trail to themselves?

I think William is in the pool on account of the ploy of the reaction test and getting hammered for it, and then essentially ducking out for a massive chunk of time.

I consider everyone here smart enough to consider that as mafia, and similarly smart enough to also think that town may disregard that idea.

it's all circular, so I've elected to throw it all out the window (ignore it for the most part) and trust my basic logic that mafia wants to protect themselves and get rid of possible problems.

[Hamilton Brian]

I’d be keen on wagons of King, Flavius, ghug, chaqa, and will today.

First order of business:
My analysis of mech (which I have not yet shared) suggests postcount bets are likely, along with vote bets
its also likely that, if the Gambler succeeded, they chose to set a limit of 0 posts (except 1 vote post)
lets see if the gambler postcapped anyone
EVERYONE PLEASE POST AT LEAST ONCE
this seems like a good step to take and has no real disadvantage
IF YOU HAVE BEEN 0-POSTCAPPED DO NOT POST AND SAVE YOUR VOTE

Second order of business:
way too many people were posting scumreads of yoyo during the night. A maf bet on either votes on yoyo or on yoyo being maf is extremely likely and therefore voting yoyo is a bad idea
(I realize this is probably going to make it look like me and yoyo are paired especially after jamie implied that suspicion. I don't care.)

Third order of business:
Can someone please explain the Bunny wagon from yesterday to me?

Fourth order of business:
I recommend pairs of people "swap" their votes by voting for each other's votes at EoD, to make bets on people's votes fail.

wait...the bet is on whom someone is voting for?! Not whom the town eliminates?

1) Setting a 0 postcap is silly; it townclears someone.

2) We may all want to get votes out in case we are postcapped and can't vote (##CALL GM: if you're surprised postcapped and haven't voted what happens?)
##vote ghug

3) Bunny draws flak when he talks day 1 as town

If you get muted before making a valid vote, you must make one last post that only contains a valid vote.

bad phrasing on my part, I meant the pool of 4 you mentioned regarding jamie (yoyo, dip bunny, damo). This is for will in PoE, yes?

[Hamilton Brian]

I’ve neglected your play this far King. The time difference can’t be too easy.

it's quiet in the mornings then bursts wide open in the afternoon (when I'm out of the house lol), then calms down a bit in the evenings. never making EoD sucks a ton though

GM NOTE:

Changing your signature during a game is forbidden.

I have talked to Flavius about the signature change. Please do not railroad the game by making a mountain of this molehill. It was an innocent mistake.

The moral here is don't listen to resident bad boy Jamiet.

[Chaqa]

I’d be keen on wagons of King, Flavius, ghug, chaqa, and will today.

This is going to seem like a small thing, but this post by itself is enough for me to town read Hamilton. I've been pretty disengaged from the game due to IRL stuff (having a newborn is way more time consuming than expected lol) and he's the first person to mention me in a bit. I think mafia would be okay letting me fester and be suspicious, whereas Hamilton views me as a good wagon.

[Hamilton Brian]

It’s just that over your 13 D1 posts you managed to get a vote on Chaqa and then really pump up Flavius.

Are you inclined to vote Chaqa again?

Why the keen interest in Flavius?

We’ve lost two town. What possible mafia pairs do you see?

[Hamilton Brian]

And King, you originally voted Flavius for being absent and to “turn up the heat” then when Flavius appears they’re the one you ask about reads. Why no one else?

I am inclined to repeat my vote on chaqa, I think the publically announced play to sheep then actually following through with it is enough to convince me (and hopefully others) that chaqa is a liability as town and coaster as mafia.

i don't think my interest in flavius is particularly of note. I vote him to put on some pressure since he was absent for a while, took it off when he came back, then asked him about reads which I didn't clearly see sorting through his posts. from my memory he doesn't often put together lists of reads, which for me makes it hard to keep up sometimes (especially on mobile).

mafia pairs: not too sure. if chaqa is coasting maf then maybe the scum team members are acting independently. will perhaps? that gives a jamie tie in.

I'm not sure who else really.

[kingofthepirates]

I felt almost everyone else had some kind of read(s), expressed through a vote. only you and flavius hadn't voted, and I felt you clearly had some reads/opinions (expressed very obviously). maybe its just my reading comprehension and missing things but imo flavius's reads were not nearly as obvious as some of yours (if you want an example, you "kind-of" town'd jamie)

[FlaviusAetius]

FLAVIUS shall enter the game soon, I removed the signature as @sweet requested sorry i didnt know it was against the rules ;(

ALSO
Hey hey Ho ho Bunny's got to go!

[ghug]

FOUND IT

but screwed it up!

how

Please don't actually make your signature game related, if that's not clear. It's against the rules because there's no way for people to see changes.
