MAFIA 43 - GAME THREAD

[bozotheclown]

OK, we have 10 conservative claims and 10 non-conservative claims, with MoscowFleet apparently out of the game. I think there is value in narrowing down the conservative claims. First, in my opinion, any non-conservative town who falsely claimed conservative should let us know now, even if it could give the scum a better chance if guessing the party cop. It would give us a good idea of how many scum claimed non-conservative. We do not want to be lynching in the conservative pool if all scum fake claimed non-conservative.

emc can you do a shortie for me?

3 towns x 3 scums and 1 strong reason for each

Well, I can try XD
(gonna try to use the lingooo)

there's still a little more than 6 hours as of rn, so won't be using lack of posts for reasoning yet

town;
xorxes, like many other people. I can't find reasoning for why scum would make a plan like that, push it, and refine it so it helps town. In addition, he's made other points + been active with a point, compared to active and just chatting. And he's just different, lol.

Vapor, for sorta the same reasons as above. he's a lot more serious, active, as well as putting what he believes out there, regardless of whether he's right or wrong. It's a a switch got flipped.

for both the above, it's plausible that it's something intentional as scum, but it feels more likely to be intentional as town.

I want to townread Neph cuz Neph is cute, but that's a bad reason xD
his way of posting is something I personally like, since it consolidates thoughts (and reduces iso'ing multiple posts to find what someone thinks about someone; i.e. Squigs would be someone who's opinions are spread out :D)
his Attorney thing I can get behind/understand, but I'm not sure if Attorney's just casual---but again, saying "this be wolfy" without data and warrants makes him seem to be pretending to contribute rather than contributing--

@Attorney, please :D it's hard for me to understand what exactly you mean, or how you've been reaching your conclusions. I don't mind the style you post, but you've been depending on personality too much lol

For scum;
Percy has really still been kinda mehhh; I don't know if he's the same person that brain/attorney/vapor have been thinking he is, or if he's not, but it's been feeling off. That, added with how he hasn't really produced anything other than flavor, and it just feels weird...can't put it into words yet haha

everyone below is a bit "eh?" at, but no one else has been as strange as Percy yet

All I can remember about Durga is from the game when she subbed in, and she cussed out a bunch of people XD
so watching her get into a pissing contest with ike and brain, and with so many posts (rather than rereading and contributing) kinda pings me as ehh. I get that mechs might not be your thing (like me xD), but there's been plenty of other stuff to talk about--why spend that time the way it was spent? She reminds me kinda of Jamie lmao so ]it might be NAI
However, I do blame Ike partially for this, he admitted to be deliberately aggravating Durga until she snapped---

but asides from that there are vague rhk tones from her (might be cuz they cuss somewhat similarly.)

Damo has been onelinin', later crocodilin', he's been here but I haven't seen much--it'd be nice to see you have opinions of some sort, regardless of how correct your reasoning turns out to be :D

for both Attorney and Brain; I can't understand them well, more than with others XD (and the thing is, I feel they're both capable of writing differently--so this is sorta a choice, they've been told that others find it difficult to follow along)
but more for former than latter, waiting to see if latter produces something in the next 4 hours (I took too many breaks lol, it's been 2 hours typing this)

all of the above might change depending on what the quiet people do

[Vecna]

Give Vecna some time, he blossoms like a beautiful rose when he's town. It'll all be determined

The person I'm not really liking atm is FoxyKnoxy. He's doing that "here's substance that's not actually substantive" thing he does as scum

a beautiful rose eh

[Vecna]

emc is town too

lets talk about this. convince me on your thought process. detailed. show me the thought pattern why u said this here.

[e.m.c^42]

oh yay, Tom is in the game

it'll be hard for him to live up to the hype XD

[Jamiet99uk]

VOTE COUNT 1.8-ish

brainbomb(7) - Durga, Squigs44, damo666, Attorney(End), rdrivera2005, thamrick, ND

Vaporwave(2) - Percy Williams, RagingIke297

rdrivera2005(1) - Xorxes

Bozotheclown and e.m.c^42 need to cast a valid vote before phase ends.

There are three hours and 44 minutes left in D1.

Brainbomb is set to be sent to the Tower.

[Vecna]

Vapor is a friend of mine, I can gauran-fucking tee you hes town here

does he have the skillset to majorly change his scumplay from game to game to throw us off?

[e.m.c^42]

is it just me, or are like half the votes on Brain kinda anchor votes?
like, the reasoning follows something along the lines of "lemme catch up, gonna vote brain for now"

[Vecna]

nothing can be gleaned from vecnas entry to the game. his catchups never actually culminate in real ideas. its his way of fulfilling empty content quota

really this feels like an empty attempt to do an ego check. you want me to react agitated or something? Or ignore it so you can scumread me?

Weak.

[Foxcastle]

is it just me, or are like half the votes on Brain kinda anchor votes?

Worse. Except for Attorney, they're all anchor votes from people who have played several games with Brain, know his playstyle (including spamming), and should know how useless that vote is.

[Squigs44]

Squigs, Damo, your vote on Brainbomb is old and plenty has happened since then. Care you re-evaluate?

Rdrivera, Thamrick, your votes on Brain look like anchors so you could drop in and drop out. Maybe make a real vote rather than taking the lazy way out? If it's based on Brainbomb's behavior this morning, you both know that he does that whether he's town or not, so not really a great reason to vote for him.

I think Attorney is worth lynching today, especially over Brainbomb. Most of the voters on Brainbomb have played with him before and should know better.

Original reasoning for voting him has only gotten stronger. As either alignment Brain is a high poster, but this game his posts are almost exclusively spam. He has only tinfoiled once or twice now, and he isn't pushing cases like he does as town. Add to that his recent Durga/Ike thing, bad claims and retractions, and his obviously faked townslip and he's a slam dunk scum.

Was I wrong? Look at you blossoming!

Nope. You must be frustrated that you've rolled scum so much Foxy. This game must not be fun for you.

vecnaaaaa

its the weekend. how fight durga for trying to buddy me

[Vecna]

Ive literally just been looking up names of british conservatives on google lol

adding to your list of fakeclaims? seems risky

I prefer to see brainbomb lynched over Attorney if a better option from the conservative pool does not develop.

[Squigs44]

I'm gonna be busier today, so just popping in and out, trying to stay caught up, but thought I would post a quick consolidation of my overall reads of key people:

Town:
Xorxes
Emc

Slight town:
Vapor
Vecna
FoxCastle

Lynchpile:
Brain, Ezio, Durga

[Foxcastle]

And so you think that I'm putting my entire reputation in this game on the line to defend my scummate Brainbomb, who generally ends up scumtelling himself? I'm insulted that you think I'm that foolish.

Anyway, I stand corrected: they're not all anchor votes. Durga is the exception.

[Vecna]

##Call GM
are we allowed to know if mafia chat is on quicktopic or on discord?

The intro post implies that it's QTs... Looks like you townslipped.

you think scum brainbomb doesnt fake such shit?

this just seems like scum fox finding a reason for a townread as opposed to actually looking for AI stuff.

[Vecna]

Someone who's better at initial set up shit than me please fact check xorx. Thanks.

he's aight. The setup already seemed a bit breakable upfront, hopefully for scum their fakeclaims can save em slightly

So Vecna seemed okay, but this post bugged me a bit. Why do hope for scum's fakeclaims to save them (even slightly)

Shouldn't you like..root for town if you're one of us?

victory if they have a valid excuse for their defeat isnt nearly as interesting/ rewarding.

besides, all recent games have been town absolutely fretting scum (not even changing the autocorrect, fucking phone lol).
