Why I think Kak is mafia:

1. Reading over the D1 discussion with the knowledge that Bunny is Mafia, there is one person here who comes across as very suspicious and connected to Bunny: myself. I voted the same way as Bunny, had long interactions with him in the form of being introduced to the game, and was explicitly called out by Red Neurax as part of a potential scumpair with Bunny. Despite all this, Kak repeatedly is saying I don’t seem paired with Bunny. I’m sure if Will was the active one and I was the AFK one he would find a way to say the opposite to Will. He also probably picked me as a newer player is easier to influence.

2. Kak was the second one on the Red Neurax train and stayed there all of D1. Will was not on the Red wagon.

3. Ghug thought Bunny-Kak was the likeliest pair. I think the whole ploy with the poll and the fact that me and Will were so at each others throats and wanting the other to be voted off first is, as Ghug said, surprisingly townie.

4. Will’s whole thing with “it isn’t Bunny-Kak” yesterday is just an insanely bold play if he’s Mafia. He had no guarantee that Ghug would listen to him over me.

5. It would be kind of lame if it was Bunny-Will since they were mostly absent D2 and Will has had long absences in general.


In favor of Kak being town: willingness to vote for Bunny, calling Bunny the most likely Mafia D2, being present and therefore opening himself to scrutiny
To 1. Yeah, there is some sus communication Day One, as I said before, between Bunny and you. But Bunny is often shading others when he is mafia, so he could've done all that just in an effort to bind you to himself. It's much easier to see who he wants to convince than what he wants others to be convinced of.

To 2. yeah, and it was still not a too bad vote. Didn't get a mason, removed a low information target and got a strong reaction of mafia out of it. So I'd call it a win

To 3. ghug very often suspects me. I don't know his odds, but it feels he is more often wrong than right.

To 4. yeah, sure, could be seen as bold. Will can be quite bold. It could also been something not thought through. Maybe he saw that I was leaning town on him, and thought he could make me vote you out if it comes to that?

To 5. yeah, it would be lame. But I had my fair share of 'being lame' as mafia. So while the other points you've presented I do think are valid (although wrong) (and maybe 3 isn't a too good one), this point here is really just a non-thing.

But yeah, definitely ditch that fifth point. It has nothing to say of alignment. If anything, it would be a harsh maf point because there is a meta of lurking as mafia here. So it's definitely in the realm of possibilities.

But yeah, that's your perspective about me. But what about the town points for Will?
My town points on Will are just the inverse of what I said for you. Will is suspicious of me and rightly so - Will didn't vote Red - Will wanted it to be me rather than him when Ghug fake suspected us as the pair - Will was not afraid to implicate himself in my eyes.

Anyway, you made good points. That's why I'm like 2/3rds or maybe 3/4ths convinced it's you but not entirely. Let's see what Will has to say.

I don't know for sure but I have some strong hunches. I want to have him here to question.

Why do you think Will is Mafia again?
because you don't look paired with Bunny.
Probably foolhardy of me to do this at this stage, but I have to ask - why? You've said this before but it seems kind of vibes-based. Red Neurax was saying he suspected a Bunny-Dream pair as early as D1.

As for the rest of what you said - I do think it is concerning that Will hasn't checked in on the game even once since the daykill. It has slowed any momentum we have.

And I do have reasons why I think Will is town, I just don't think they're worth sharing with just you, as it would just be giving you time to come up with a rebuttal. I would like us to all be active at the same time so we can discuss more naturally and less rehearsed.
Sorry about that

My uni classes are intermittent day by day so I just choose to play whenever I’m not hounded by work or school

Also, how he prodded you to maybe claim second mason. That looked very much like testing the waters if ghug maybe made a fake claim as VT and he wanted to check if ghug is for real, or maybe you were the real mason.

Like, if he did that to his mafia-partner, that would be much over the top, and could risk easily the death of you both. So I doubt that Bunny would be so thoughtless, when he was shading me for a long time.
This sounds like you’re trying to convince Dream that Dream is town :lol:

I had my doubts about that interaction because it was definitely plausible taht Bunny told Dream in mafia chat to stay alert for it, and that was a signal between partners

The one thing that gives me pause about Dream is how self aware he is about how he interacted with Bunny

Its a bit scummy because mafia would be hyper aware as how they come across

Thats really it tho

#5 isn’t indicative of my alignment, just my schedule

Also on your townpoint for Kak, in D2 he did all this to Bunny when there wasn’t any real chance his voice could get Bunny killed

Its just distancing in this case

The point I hold against Kak the most is his vote and then defense of the Red Neurax wagon

I dont think theres a reasonable justification for doing that; i’ve said it before and I’ve said it again, killing someone for something NAI is just helping the mafia

I think this is bad but I also think a lot of people made bad vote choices Day 1. Nevertheless it’s not a good look that Kak was second on the wagon

because you don't look paired with Bunny. I know I'm town, so that just leaves Will. And while Will doesn't look too strong as if he is mafia in isolation, you look less as if you were mafia in isolation, too.

Also, Will himself has pointed out, that Bunny doesn't look like he's connected to me. Will had these whole townreads all the game long (which he later said some were just mild), chastised people for voting Red who was in his mind practically confirmed town, at least that's how he presented it, and even when he misses the game for long times, he acts as if he knows everything.

This could just be confident town, sure, but those are also signs that he is mafia with too much information. That and the nerve of not even being here when our town clear was still alive, trying to get behind things, is like mega-un-solvey. Sure, life happens, but he is missing now, what, like 48 hours without having a post? It's as if he tries to smother the game by taking it hostage, getting the life out of it.

So, why is Will town again for you?
Will, any response? I understand life and scheduling get in the way but Kak has voted you over this.

True, but in my case it’s my only angle. Like at this point I’m suspicious of anyone who is ruling me out.

Its misguided townies who start bad wgaons. Its opportunistic mafia who perpetuate the bad wagons

Its extremely unfair and dangerously misconstrued to tell me that due to factors out of my control I am killing the game. I have participated when I could, and have posted a LOT when I can

Also @Kak I want you to explain why you think all my townreads are strong. Its very common practice for people to just be like ‘x is town’, without having a strong case or reason behind it

And yes, Bunny didn’t look paired to Kak. I found his responses to Kak towny. Thats why I found you, Dream, to be scummy. But I was wrong, and Bunny was mafia. So i’m reconsidering

I mean, thats fair. I think you underestimate how towny your EOD was last day phase with the hindsight bunny is mafia, but i digress

Also wdym your only angle? Like to clear yourself?

I mean atp if you’re mafia you just win. you vote me and kak does too, ezpz. Its why I’m not sure you’re mafia, despite my doubts
