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

[miminena]

i'll put some reads down for now, this is mostly thought dumping and not very well thought out so please scrutinize

confirmed town: Mimi (at least from my perspective)
pretty towny: kotp (although I should check myself on this one, since I vibe very well with them. I have a bad habit of heavily trusting mafia in in-person games.)
leaning town: Will, Spirit, DW, Bunny, ND, bozo, ghug; from towniest to nullest
null cutoff: Demon (they've lurked this whole game while seemingly pretending to be active. I don't like it, but I can't really develop a read)
leaning mafia: Vecna (this is a very slight lean, and honestly with their recent posting this might move up to a town lean. the only reason that they're a mafia lean in the first place is that they started the flash wagon on worcej, which doesn't mean that much in retrospect), foodcoats (they turned the wagon on Red into an actual wagon, and it feels weird how they went from relatively low and sporadic posting on day 1 to being the highest poster atm. maybe there's a good reason for this, please let me know if that's the case), worcej (very slight, only putting them here because of the damo kill, since they were damo's main suspicion during day 1. could definitely switch to a town lean one I look back through the end of day 1 fiasco.)
pretty scummy: nobody atm
person who I currently have a slight scum read on but everyone else seems to town read so idk: bb (their voting patterns seem very opportunist all throughout, and they claimed vt rather than town initially, which was something damo was pretty set about, so the nk on damo points to bb imo)

I'd be fine voting anyone Demon and under except for worcej rn; my preferred vote is bb, but that seems unrealistic, and second is foodcoats, but that's already a wagon and I don't want it to run away barely over 24h into they, so i'll withhold my vote for now.

I put no notes on town leans because that category is pretty much just people who are relatively null but not exactly scummy, which I don't have much reasoning for. admittedly it's a bit large, and consists of some people I haven't thought about enough. I'll work on sifting through it throughout the day

I'm not reading this...don't copy ND in anything, especially writing style.

noted. next reads list (if there is one) will be much shorter

I'm probably gonna not be around all day.

Think worcej is probably town. Will likely is too if worcej is because he voted for him there at the end after defending him and there's no reason scum does that to town over another town.

I've been finding Dip irritating but I don't think it's actually scummy.
I've been finding Bunny not irritating which I do think is actually scummy.
Mimi is the foxcastle sort of new player we're going to be thanks to scumread if she is scum.

If I die kill bozo or ND because they deserve it.

What were you saying about mimi?

And you’re right, I’ve achieved my scumtell this game, but I think it’s because of the sabbatical.

Kind of disturbing that that sentence was totally illegible and nobody asked me about it until now...

I can't figure out what word I was trying to use, but we have a tendency to let competent and analytical new players get blanket townread regardless of their actual role. She's going to be hard to read and very liable to slip by, which scares me.

I wouldn't call myself competent... analytical, sure, but a lot of it probably isn't very good

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

honestly, on a reread of their posts foodcoats feels better to me. i'm still fine with them as a vote, largely because if they are town they've left a pretty good legacy.

##vote bozotheclown

out of the non foodcoats wagons, I honestly still feel like DW is town. I might be falling into their trap (I have a bad habit of trusting mafia when I play with friends), but bozo has had very few posts and the ones they do have feel kind of empty.

[kingofthepirates]

well, now that there's a DW wagon, I feel a bit more comfortable voting foodcoats

##vote foodcoats

i'll catch up on the thread in a bit to see if my reads change, I just want to get my vote down now.

This feels weird and inconsistent. why're you voting food only when another wagon swings up? previously you only mentioned time as the reason for not voting food (ok, fine), but plenty of time also elapsed before this, and now time has seemingly left the picture? (sorry if this is a bit rough, I'm kinda speedrunning this in class rn oop-)

when I made my read on food they would've been at 4 votes, with no other wagons. when I read the thread at eod-10h the votes were in the same configuration. now that there was a counter wagon I felt comfortable jumping on foodcoats.

The honesty that only a new player can produce. Jesus. This is the type of shit that freaks me the fuck out. I can only assume this is something about playing this like its chess or something.

[foodcoats]

What has bozo done to make you feel that way?

His lines of questioning in a few places have been acute.

It could be faked, but right now I have a townlean on bozo.

He hasn't had any lines of questions. That would require following up on the ones he's asked.

##VOTE bozo

I implore you all to reconsider ND. Killing him early has been effective in scaring him away from the community before and I'd really rather this not be a place where he feels empowered to spew his evil.

Out of game, this sounds like something you should take up with the Kouncil. If ND has done something banworthy, so be it; but if not, it seems like you are the one making this place unpleasant.

but why is the counter wagon necessary? If you're (relatively) confident about it, why not make the push there? idt it's likely to end (I highly doubt 8/14 joining together) and ofc you can always change (as I see you already did, and JESUS I sound like like a youtuber beggin for subs or likes or smth TT )...

[brainbomb]

I will go on record saying im very against a bozo elimination. Hes very much in his town game that im used to seeing. He hounded people with questions pretty heartily and tends to badger on and on in that way.

[brainbomb]

Also would not vote for will, or mimi today. Or pirates or vecna or ND as much as I enjoy ND being roasted.

Worcej has been alot less involved today, hes nullin

[Jamiet99uk]

VOTE COUNT 2.7

DiplomacyandWarfare (4) - brainbomb, Vecna, JustAGuyNamedWill, kingofthepirates
bozotheclown (3) - BunnyGo, ghug, miminena
foodcoats (1) - SpiritoftheRadio
SpiritoftheRadio (1) - DiplomacyandWarfare
DemonRHK (1) - ND
JustAGuyNamedWill (1) - DemonRHK
ghug (1) - foodcoats

4 hours and 19 mins are left in the day.

Diplomacyandwarfare is at the top of the list.

bozotheclown and worcej have not voted.
worcej has not participated sufficiently either.

GM NOTE: The PeterBot did not count Vecna's "D&W" vote, but I am counting it, because his voting intention was very clear.

[Vecna]

##vote dip

for the bot and to make it easier on our gm

[worcej]

Jamie is so micro-managing.

We need to revolt and not post at all in N2 - who’s with me?

[worcej]

I have read next to nothing from this day phase and won’t pretend to have an informed opinion.

First gut take is the bozo wagon feels good as my vibes from him are off.

I feel like the D&W wagon is a revisit of D1, which I think is acceptable as I kinda threw the vote into chaos and he got “saved” from that.

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

@Dip whats your read on Bozo?

[worcej]

##vote dip

I think this is a good revisit wagon to get some information on the chaos of D1. Selfishly, I can imagine that there is a potential “connection” between him and me that I feel needs to be exposed so people stop suspecting my D1 voting.

There was a good amount of discussion over foodcoats today, varying opinions on him. There has been some discussion around if ND is a valid push or a behavioral matter to be handled by the kouncil. Some discussion early on about why damo would be the kill, and then lots of other mini aggressions among people

Demon rhk has earned a voter or two here and there

Ect

[brainbomb]

Vecna has made some interesting posts where hes identified food and dip both listing him as mafia in odd ways

Much townier vibes from worcej lol.

Lol, so drama happened in a game? Weird.

On the food comment - I will need to reread because I am a firm null on him atm and that isn’t enough for me to flip him.

Why are demon votes happening? Again, a null from me and also seems to be low activity, which is NAI to me.

[brainbomb]

Hes hard for me to read, I voted him earlier because he just seemed like someone who hadnt even been considered and thus we havent had many opportunities to see how he reacts to being voted.

Im still pondering him.
