MAFIA 92 - The return of the Witchfinder General [GAME THREAD]

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

I have factual evidence that may point to the possibility that bunny is mafia based on subjective factual meta

Explain

[DiplomacyandWarfare]

I am third party

Does that one work the same way damo?

I'm third party too ;}

I know after my data research projects there is a direct correlation between most scum players total posts dropping when compared to how many posts they make as town, and then there is also a correlation between longer posts with more words in them while also having less posts than usual; and quite a few people have these traits.

Examples like vecna is much more likely to post less as mafia, while doing half hearted catchups; followed quickly by a smarttering of scumreads he will throw out and it looks very much like his towngame but the curiousity of it is less evident.

Or spirit who tends to have big posts as both alignments but will hedge heavily in his huge wall posts when hes mafia.

Well ND was doing this thing where he was clearly scum reading me in a couple of his posts but only mentioned my actions and not my name. Then foodcoats jumped on me and cited ND as a quote in the post where he did it. I felt a connection a brewing, with FC seeing me as an easy wagon to board since ghug was on me with mimi and will getting antsy with me not saying the 3 words they wanted. ND is very low effort this game, while simultaneously criticizing others for not talking about the things he wants (talking about civ, discussing mechanics, etc.) and then he misread my spectrum post and I just felt it was all stuff I could read as scummy, but then I thought about past games with ND and this is just all stuff he does regardless of alignment, including that he scum reads me for no stated reasons. I backed out because I realized it all meant nothing really, in the context of how he generally plays. The low effecting it in isolation is probably more town indicative than scum indicative, but I still see him as mostly a coin flip. I feel better about FC being scum. That was most of it.

ND and Spirit seem to be avoiding making a useful testable alignment statement.

I'll give Red a bit more time.

##vote worcej for making the anti-town version

ND, spirit, red and brain are all possibles.

And ofc Bozo is yet to speak.

Damo, why ND? I have written a paragraph on him twice now and deleted it because although he feels scummy to me, I realized he just does that and couldn't justify anything real and deleted them. My read on his testable statements thing is he is probably just bullheaded like me

I want to see that paragraph

I meant to make the previous post in response to bunny, not bb, it was a direct response to the above.

[SpiritoftheRadio]

i was just going to start dramatically hedging all my reads sarcastically in response to bb

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

I dont like how people piledon ghug

[SpiritoftheRadio]

also when im mafia, i usually tunnel on one, hedge on the others. Currently im town and tunneling foodcoats though, so it isn't alignment indicative. But like I've said, I just forget when im mafia when i roll scum and remember again at night when i get notifications from the mafia qt

[brainbomb]

Poor floodcoast

[SpiritoftheRadio]

I dont like how people piledon ghug

i mean, you were the 3rd one, you made it a wagon. I am not super keen on killing ghug, but my best town reads are on em, and worcej, who I like this game but I know is capable of feeling very town early when he's scum

[SpiritoftheRadio]

bb, you don't really this im nasty scum, do ya? I'm so clearly in my element and living my best life as a useless towny

[Red Neurax]

I dont like how people piledon ghug

why did you vote for him then

[SpiritoftheRadio]

honestly, ghug and foodcoats being the wagons might be my ideal scenario, I like the info we'd get from that

[DiplomacyandWarfare]

I am a supporter of worcej's plan to arbitrarily eliminate ghug.

##VOTE ghug

bozo is paired with will for pinning this wagon on ghug
or possibly paired with me

[Red Neurax]

honestly, ghug and foodcoats being the wagons might be my ideal scenario, I like the info we'd get from that

please elaborate on what information you would obtain from that

[DiplomacyandWarfare]

welp ghug's response to my accusation seems to have amounted to "I always say this and therefore I can pursue whatever line of reasoning I want and it is obviously NAI as long as it links back to d1 not going well"
still don't like this
so...yeah
(keeps vote on ghug but does not "emphasis vote" it because I find that behavior anti-town)

I know I was, I’m kind of getting buyers remorse with the vote, I have a feeling in my gut that its wrong

[ghug]

I am not third party.

How about we all say this?

This, Will.

[kingofthepirates]

I'm not sure we should do the third party thing, as it gives the other two factions a pathway and incentive for cooperation.

why do we even care abt the third party thing?? isn't just saying "I am town" objectively better from town pov (assuming we have a town lie detector who isn't tampered with, it'll give us more information, with either a town clear or a confirmed non-town (town enemy) person)?

Sus

then... change it?? looking through your ghug vote post, you posted a solve with like zero context. I thought it was a meme at the time but this statement makes me question that, so now idk what your idea is/was... :<
