MAFIA 44: 'DREAMLAND' GAME THREAD

[bo_sox48]

Why the bo-hate? I mean, besides the usual... He announced beforehand he wasn't going to be present today. If he continues to lurk after that, we can consider him. But bo as a policy lynch doesn't make much sense.

And I have one skeptical eyebrow raised at anyone who has bo on their scum-team list. He has done nothing scum

But he has been present. He's logged in and posted "hi" and other content free stuff. Even if he couldn't be here much, he has been able to post several times, and has therefore chosen not to contribute.

I am contributing. I have a number of reads that are informing my opinion as to what the best course of action is today. What have you done so far today?

##call Gm... (sorry ND)
I voted for ezio
And his reinforced claim makes me want to stick it there.
HIs votes get more power as the game progresses. I don't want ezio to be able to pull anyone else's vote.
D1 we have only meta-guesses for voting. Which is why ezio usually starts clamoring for a No Lynch at some point.
We can shut down the third party right now.
This will make the rest of the game simply, imo.

This is something I have to agree. If Ezio doesn't withdraw his claim I think he is the best D1 lynch.

[bo_sox48]

Why would you want to lynch the guy whose role we already know on D1? That gives scum the opportunity to do jack fucking shit instead of actually making them do meaningful things.

[Jamiet99uk]

The more I think about it, I'm quite sure RagingIke is actually scum.

Look how cool and calm Ike was when he was the lead wagon earlier today. Ike is an experienced player. He knows that early D1 pressure or policy wagons rarely last the distance. When he was lead wagon he did nothing to defend himself, he openly broke the rules and allowed attention to be drawn to this, and acted calm and jokey and flippant, not seeming to feel under any pressure.

Scumteams often employ one of their number in the role of noisy, distracting, attention seeker. This fills the thread up with noise and allows the other scum to lurk or keep their distance.

##Vote RagingIke

I know Ike. I've been on Ike's team. I've co-GMed with Ike. Ike enjoys being scum. Ike is calm and happy as scum.

This is scum Ike, folks. Lynch him with me and get town off to the right start.

Lol, wut? You don't think town Ike would draw attention to himself? You don't think Ike would be calm and collected as town? Like, yeah, he could be scum trying to distract, but this read seems like you trying to justify a vote on Ike rather than actual solving.

I think that Town Ike would have defended himself when he was the lead wagon, which in this case he absolutely did not do.

woke up like 20 min ago and gonna grab lunch, made it to like page 29

##Vote Vaporwave

emc looks a lot better plus I think he derpcleared himself from non-assassin mafia in a weird way. I don't see someone who's faking a derpclear to make the weird assumption that godfather wouldn't just tell his teammates. That feels like such a weird move to make in faking a derpclear, I feel like anyone trying to would just go along the route of "oh do mafia just not know the assassin?" etc

like moscow did

also vapor doesn't look any better and just posts fluff

##VOTE dargoyle

too many peeps grabbing onto Ezio

this post especially sucks considering ezio had like, ONE OTHER PERSON voting him I think, maaaaaybe two. He's panicking over Ezio becoming a wagon for some really bizarre reason, maybe bussing?

I'll be back pre-EoD but vapor looks awful. Make him a wagon someone

[Vaporwave]

won't be online for EOD, it's the exact time for toilet/bathtub etc

later alligators!

think I'm 45 % okayish with my vote on dargoyle, he had 1 post that felt fake af and it triggered me tremendously

Don't touch e.m.c or else!

leave Ezio alive for today, you filthy scumbos! Let his DNA be screen so that we have it on paper that he's of alien descent.

someone tell me to vote damo cause I leave in 2-3 minutes

Come on man, I agree with your conclusion but honestly, no one defends themselves in the first 24 hours of D1.

You are tunneling hard

Because if we don't lynch him today I bet you a huge [REDACTED] with extra [REDACTED] and a side order of [REDACTED] that he retracts tomorrow and then tries to coast through while our attention turns elsewhere.

tired of you twisting my posts, I've explained that I'm okay with lynching Ezio D2 because I felt like there's more to his tactic. You dismiss my post and invent 'panicking' and bussing

you're not making me a wagon, get it clear in your head.

I haven't. Do people generally post their reads? I know I haven't played mafia in a little while but I always thought that posting reads was a waste of time that could be spent building cases, rereading, or otherwise putting pieces of the puzzle together.

Would you mind answering my question? I haven't read the vast majority of the thread, so while part of me is trying to sort out what you could have done that justifies your high horse mentality in the middle of day 1, I'm also genuinely curious.

[Jamiet99uk]

Come on man, I agree with your conclusion but honestly, no one defends themselves in the first 24 hours of D1.

You are tunneling hard

You do not appear to understand what tunelling is.

I am currently voting for Ezio and pushing his lynch. If I was tunelled on Ike I would only be advocating an Ike lynch.

How have you "contributed" then exactly? What are these cases that you have built?

Cropping my question out of the quote does not mean I never asked it. Please answer my question.

I've built one meager case and I townread at least four people based on the brief bit of this thread that I've read, but none of that is worth explicating on at the moment.

[Vaporwave]

Quas has been setting his sight on me since the beginning

He never made an effort to understand my view, but EMBELLISHED everything which tells me he only sees me as a target

I won't give in to your scumbo needs

[bo_sox48]

For what it's worth, someone taking the easy way out and voting for Ezio despite the fact that they should have actual scumreads based on their own observations is probably going to be the subject of my case.

Building "one meager [sic] case and not posting it is not contributing.

If you want to see what I have done you might read the thread and look at my posts, but some key points include:

- I have presented a very well composed and clearly articulated case on RagingIke, who I scumread, following a series of interactions with him earlier in the phase, and my observations on his response to being a lead wagon for a while.

- I have called for an Ezio lynch, which you are at least clearly aware of.

- I have highlighted the fact that Bozo was calling for my lynch at the same time as saying I was a null read.

- I have addressed a series of highly tedious enquiries from Squiggs.

- I have helpfully provided some Vote Counts because the Peterbot is not working.

- I engaged in some early discussions of the mechanics and in particular made sure everyone is aware that a Mafia day-chat exists, as some people seemed not to realise this.

- I am forcing you to participate.
