Mafia round 93: hot potato! (game thread)

[DiplomacyandWarfare]

why aren't you voting Red then?

I was voting red earlier, before a number of idiots decided to bandwagon me and I hopped on the mimi wagon with more votes and fairly bad play

"he's bandwagoning low effort"

Also bandwagons

you mean I "bandwagoned" to someone I scumread, if slightly less than my previous vote, when under fire myself?
yes.
How about your vote immediately afterward?
You bandwagoned to someone you had no prior scumread of (unless it's one of your clever little secrets that you claim to be hiding), while your wagon wasn't going anywhere.
You wouldn't even properly bus your partner damo. If your posts were real opinions on the state of the game, and not minimal amounts of filler, you would at the very least tried to push a damo wagon around this point.

[DiplomacyandWarfare]

@D&W: Do you still think I am scum with Bunny and Damo and Mimi?

Actually, no, I determined the most likely scumteam for you is now bunny + will + red

Red because red is still, still, still, still, still, still, still scum
will for pushing me while attempting to antipair you yesterday, and also cooperating with your strategy to get people talking tonight so you can decide your scumkill and who you're passing those nonexistent potatoes you have based on people's reads
bunny for the same things as will, and also various posts that I think I outlined somewhere.
(checks bot)
oh yeah
you assumed that when I scumread bunny, bunny scumread me too. You expected your partner to make reciprocal scumreads in self-defense.
the fake reaction where bunny said "Damn it." - this is not a phrase bunny has ever written, definitely not while bothering to put proper capitalization and punctuation
accusing me of dumbslipping that we had prs

anyways this one is unlikely, mostly for being heavy on high-posters, but will feels scummy, red is definitely scum, and bunny is hard-paired with you, as either alignment.

My full potato info is as follows:
I had one hot potato d1
I passed it to RED NEURAX
I received an additional hot potato at the start of the night
I am passing that potato to [Redacted]

My vote tomorrow is going on red neurax for the coasting and bandwagoning and basically everything else

as a final note, this is the only one of my EoD posts I wrote within 6 hours of EoN, so a bunch of stuff in some of the earlier ones is probably factually innacurate. For example, red has made a few more shitposts that I have not analyzed, but my post on red neurax still says I analyzed all of them. This is not something I can be bothered to fix at the moment.


Night 1 Dip out

[DiplomacyandWarfare]

did I forget to post this one?

so part of the reason damo is on the gamesolve is because of this post:

I think it is worth tracking the HPs the same as the SP, since otherwise the mafia would have more information about them, although it probably doesn't matter much. I did not have an HP D1.

I did have a potato of any description day 1

whoops I did NOT have a potato of any description day 1

this reads a lot like damo's scum teammates told him not to out any potatoes he had so he tried to retroactively unclaim it

there's also red neurax's idiotic push of damo, which reads as a bus because even red coasting would've cited some stupid piece of evidence if pushing a town
(yes, the assumption is that red is town. No, that slot is not debatable)

and finally, other than being pushed by red, damo did more or less nothing d1 other than antipairing with red and shitposting

scum

ok i want to make this at least a little bit long and lacking of whitespace since i'm paranoid a mafia member with quick reaction time might switch their kill based on the person i reveal i gave the sweet potato to so i want to obfuscate it at least a little bit. generally i think dw is more towny than not, the wagons felt t/t/t, especially considering the fact that nobody was really present at eod, which i would expect scum to at least try to be there if their teammate was on the chopping block. other town reads of mine are damo and bozo, the latter of which i passed the sweet potato to and will likely confirm that said pass happened tomorrow if they're town. both reads of course are heavily influenced by vibes and if i'm alive tomorrow i will re-eval based on the nk and the wagon movement but generally i think they're both towny. rdr and bo are also secondary vibe-based town reads but less so since i've never played with them before. if i die tonight, farewell forever; if i live to tomorrow, i'll see you all except one (unless my sp target is the current nk target) in a few minutes

[bozotheclown]

I had the SP and no HPs N1.

PLEASE HOLD

Please be patient as I work through sending all necessary PMs.

There are multiple ways in which players may be killed during this phase (and future ones). Flavor text is written solely for entertainment purposes and is not meant to indicate cause of death. If multiple players die during a single phase, you will not be told who died by what means.

About in order from most to least (with a bunch of null or nullish):

D&W - I think his chaotic and irretic behaviour here is a good sign that he is town. It doesn't feel like there is an agenda behind his postings or anything hidden. Maybe not lockdown, but very high.

Dream - he's similar to the last game I played with him. A little less maybe, but the big picture strokes are the same. Wouldn't vote for Dream tomorrow

Jamie - haven't seen a sign of maf-Jamie here, feel pretty good about him. Still I don't want to throw caution into the wind, he's good at hiding as mafia.

RD - I like what RD is posting, feels like logical town RD here.

bozo - his math expedition with damo makes it so they aren't mafia together, and while he feels a bit detached, that's normal for bozo. Should have a look later how he voted and stuff, that would probably reveal much more about his alignment.

damo - had damo higher at first, but after ghug noted that damo had this spreadsheet info for the potatos before, I'm now much more skeptical about him, since bad math is a sign of mafia damo. It could be just an honest mistake, twice, but that made me cautious here. At least I think he isn't mafia with bozo together, I think, or they wouldn't both have posted that kind of math.

mimi - the wagon forming on mimi makes me think that mimi is town, and behaviour looks ok too.

bo - a bit of his behaviour had me questioning him, looks solid enough

Bunny - posts much, don't feel too sure here, but probably town

food - I have no impression of foods game, he was the eptitome of null to me here. That substitution surprised me though, but I guess yavu has gotten a blank slate?

ghug - feels a bit retracted from what I know from him, but I haven't played with ghug in a while, so maybe it's just him changing. Don't feel malice here, but I can't say I feel especially town about him either.

Control V - might be because he's new here, but I haven't gained much from 'Paste'. As usual I give new people the first day off, but that is over now. Want to get to know much more here.

Chaqa - not much to see here, Chaqa here is very null. The early low posting however is something town Chaqa does, I do not want to give him credit for because maf-Chaqa knows that and will hide behind that. In my PoE until he proves he is town.

worcej - I had worse in memory than what he actually posted, much more null than sus in retrospect. First impression of him was that he was hiding, but in retrospect, he's more like detached and maybe bored, which can be town worcej.

Will - feels like he can change his opinion here on a dime. He early declared a (probably soft) town read for Bunny and me, and after a bit that completely vanished. Other examples of that is all over his game. Sure, it's good to not tunnel and have an open mind, but Will seems to be another extreme from his last game, where his reads looked pretty frozen. I think he very well could've changed his approach from last game so to not fall into the same track.

Red - I don't like how he blocks all information from his reads, that's either unhelpful town or a mafia tactic.

Long ago, in a galaxy far, far away, there was a town named Chewandswallow. Chewandswallow is a town different than the one you or I live in, because people there do not need to buy food from the market or Doordash. Instead, everything that the people there ate came from the sky.

It rained soup and juice, and hailed green peas. In the winter, it snowed mashed potatoes.

One day, a blizzard swept in, burying Chewandswallow under six feet of mashed potatoes. Most of the residents managed to get to their home in safety.

But not Flint Lockwood! He was caught out in a field and was trapped and froze to death.

ghug has died. He was Flint Lockwood of the town!

YOU MAY POST

[DreamTrawler]

Huh. Ghug is not who I was expecting to die. RIP.

[yavuzovic]

Rest in peace ghug. I will read the game more tomorrow after work and start posting my opinions, and even more thoroughly in the weekend.

This is very townie and I am glad both past Sweet Potato holders are alive. This should let us get some townclears.

##vote red neurax

[DiplomacyandWarfare]

the red wagon is open to hitchhiking from all town members

I want to say sorry that I missed the time again, I just finished writing and as usual I keep them close to EoN so my thoughts are fresh. I didn't want to miss it, like before, and for a moment I thought I was still in time but the forum loaded a bit so I'm very sorry to miss it. Wasn't my intent, and I thought I had it, even when it was very close. I guess I'm just incompetent in that way.

Sorry especially to ghug as he pointed that out last game. I swear I don't do this intentional

[DiplomacyandWarfare]

oh btw I think I forgot to put the following in an EoN post:
I think jamie is probably town. It looks more likely to me that players such as Food or Will who were making low-effort accusations at me yesterday are scum than that jamie is
