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

[DiplomacyandWarfare]

damn, rip red :<

oh look, the pirate king has finished chatting with the other maf

[worcej]

so I think there is probably at least one mafia member who ended on red, but I doubt it was all 3. Bunny, who I think is the only person that ended off of red or worcej, didn't have much interaction with red, and didn't seem to like dw's vote in that regard (599). Bunny, if that's not what you meant, please let me know.

Will was pretty adamant on defending red near the end, and honestly I don't think a mafia would be that dead set on a wagon that's very close to running away. Probably my biggest town read at the moment, but I have only analyzed 2 people so far.

more to come

Not to troll, but I think scum would be more likely to hard-defend a towny as a counter wagon

No way he would be scum here and not claim PR with 4 minutes to go and his wagon picking up steam.

I agree with this assessment.

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

you stand accused of deliberately not posting until your buddy red neurax was in danger of dying

Im gonna be honest I don’t see scum blatantly doing this to save a perennial lurker

I don't care how often red neurax lurks, it's still scummy

Can you explain why lurking is scummy @Dip

[miminena]

worcej seemed intent on shaking things up throughout day one, that was the source of the initial drama involving them, after all. I don't think the final wagon was very out of character. I think it was probably town on town, and I also think, at least at the moment, that one of DW and ND are mafia. not much more to analyze imo

Next i'll probably go through the people who jumped on worcej near eod

also i'm probably doing something wrong while analyzing, so please call me out on it

Who said anything about sheeping?

Can you explain why you assume I’m going to sheep worcej?

Can you explain why lurking is scummy @Dip

(A) anti-town because it makes it harder to read the player in question, so voting lurkers encourages pro-town play
(B) anti-town because it makes it harder to read the player in question, so scum are more likely to encourage (and practice) lurking to screw with town's info
(C) specifically used by scum who are concerned that town will sniff them out (more than general obstruction of reads, scum specifically don't want other players forming reads on them)

oh and there's the effect where the less people post, the less people post because there's less to respond to

You were planning to sheep worcej, or at the very least place a blanket townread on worcej and push players who push worcej, tomorrow)

(dependent on the theory that both you and worcej are scum, which I find likely)

the key evidence is the "(reluctantly)", which I see as an attempt to distance yourself

I agree with this assessment.

alternatively, we have a worcej/vecna pair, and vecna just clutched tf up for worcej pulling a bonkers play.

I am going to lie-detect this statement to verify which is the normally used term

[miminena]

first off, Vecna

they seemed to have a slight scum read on worcej throughout the day, and started the wagon pretty quickly after the supposed incriminating evidence, that being their defense of ND, was brought up. they were voting ND for a while, but notably that was after the self-vote, so it might have been a vote of opportunity, but I doubt it. overall, it feels like someone who was voting ND seeing that wagon was starting to become nonviable, then switching to the next best thing and hoping it would gain traction. I don't think this says anything about alignment, though, so i'll give them a null read

[DiplomacyandWarfare]

No way he would be scum here and not claim PR with 4 minutes to go and his wagon picking up steam.

I agree with this assessment.

alternatively, we have a worcej/vecna pair, and vecna just clutched tf up for worcej pulling a bonkers play.

Other thing is that PR claims are very likely to be CCed in this setup, especially since there were potentially up to 2 protectives before red flipped pr, so worcej claiming pr would proooooooobably result in getting variously vigged or daykilled after a thorough cc war

i just don't think that Vecna would start the wagon here if they were in mafia with worcej. at least one of them is town imo
