Mafia 46 - Ace Attorney - GAME THREAD

[xorxes]

I think I'm caught up

Tom: I felt it was a bit odd but not too much at first, what's the difference between voting me now and voting me at EOD?

Chippe: What about the Cruaader reveal makes ND look bad to you, exactly? Your interactions with him last night made my eyes bleed so if you could be concise it would be helpful. Also, less essential, why do you always assume the worst in everyone's intentions?

Fox: Why didn't you provide reasons for your scumreads when I asked you? Durga didn't ask why and you gave her reasons
Also, Carl wasn't the reason I voted for you. I voted for you because I think you're scum. I brought up suggesting lynching you during the night.

Flavius: Mostly a reminder that you have very important questions floating since about midway through D1 around that you need to answer. But also, what about Chippe's behavior do you think is helpful? Please be sure to answer this one because I have a followup. Also, why do you presume an entire wagon that was entirely willing to dissipate is full of faithful actors?

ND: Can you write NOT at length about where Chippe lied? Also, again, do you expect to learn anything new from bozo's last words other than trying to confirm your own long standing read?

Nephthys: The question was more why did you WANT to save me? You pinned me as scum after reading the first 20 pages then pondered which wagon you wanted to join. At EOD you voted for Durga, said "Actually no, Prado lives today. I must support the walls" then afterwards it was getting close to tie and you switched to bozo. You were there for the full last 10-20 minutes, so you had time to consider and it just felt kinda odd in retrospect.

This could be confirmation that he scanned Fox.

Even if that's the case, it doesn't prove Fox is scum because he could have been framed.

##VOTE BALKI

What do we do when he comes back and claims BA?

[Durga]

If Balkins is scum, which is likely, I'd be shocked if he BA'd TrPrado - then I think et is also likely to be scum. Maybe even xorx. Well need to reread d1

[teacon7]

@teacon - xorx asked you a question about how you managed to accidentally post in the wrong thread with all your quotes, and i'm curious about it too

Where is it?

I posted in the wrong thread cos I was playing from my phone. I copied notes I typed up in google keep, and pasted into the box. I was going fast because I had to pay attention while navigating LAX. I hit the wrong thread but didn't notice :/

[ChippeRock]

Ok yeah - so if rdr scanned Balki and got a "not home" then Balki is probably scum.

Where is this connection between Reporter and rdrivera coming from?

[Squigs44]

##vote Balki

[Durga]

LOL, assuming Flavius is scum, does this mean Balki is the secretary? It's not that anyone was writing about how smart and experienced Balki was, it's that Balki was just giving strategy tips.

LOOOOL I'd actually die

[xorxes]

I feel Fox and teacon are also probably scum. Nephthys falls in just behind them. I'm less sure about the rest, but rdrivera and damo seem like they're deserving of trying to pull more from. I haven't had the opportunity to do a deep dive after D2.

I doubt he would have scanned teacon or Nephthys because he would have voted for them instead of Fox.

wait why would secretary be "not home"

[ChippeRock]

Could someone explain to me why Balki's got so many votes on him? What is/are the reason(s) behind the votes?

Sadly, Secretary doesn't have a night action that would take them from home. So...

Are you reading this thread? go back and read the thread. Rdr claimed a "not home" report on Balki

He hardclaimed reporter with a scan on Balki

[ChippeRock]

Well, the Reporter isn't that useless and Balki is scum (or BA).

##vote Balki

?? :O

I am hardclaiming and Balki wasn't at home last night. As no other town PR visits he is either scum or BA.

First night I watched Fox and he was at home.

Okay, but before we rush to conclusions and lynch Balki, I feel that we need to question this move & why it is/may not be a legitimate claim.

@rdrivera, why are you sacrificing yourself for 1 lynch? Why not ISO Balki and try convincing everyone to lynch him?

[teacon7]

LOL, assuming Flavius is scum, does this mean Balki is the secretary? It's not that anyone was writing about how smart and experienced Balki was, it's that Balki was just giving strategy tips.

That would be *MOST* hilarious.

Sorry for my absence so far today, y'all. After seeing so many theories thrown around about NK and getting a headache, I felt my time would be better spent reading a book than investing in this. I showed back up a couple times via phone but wasn't up for getting in the thick of things. After some time away I feel I've looked at some people through the lens of guilt by association. Squigs moreso, but also to some extent rdrivera. Regarding Squigs I definitely think the association with Flavius is pretty bad but it's also quite one-sided. Flavius has most certainly attached himself to Squigs in a way I don't think anyone should, and I feel like a decent chunk of my Squigs read was unintentionally influenced by that. He answered my questions decently enough. And having a scummy attach themselves to you isn't exactly alignment indicative.I'll look back at Squigs again but he doesn't feel as scummy as he did when I first reread him. And with rdrivera my gut was telling me he was bussing Fox but I suppose that's reading into a bit more than what's there.

This may also mean he scanned Squigs and got an innocent. But still assuming Fox is scum.

[Durga]

It's a legitimate claim. Mafia isn't going to sacrifice a heavily town read player for a shitty mislynch on Balki. Sure, maybe he could have pushed Balki but Balki wasn't going to be lynched today. I think it's a solid move.

[peterlund]

Well, the Reporter isn't that useless and Balki is scum (or BA).

Nice work!

[Squigs44]

Xorxes is lost this game. Not even paying attention to the rdr claim, trying to frame Fox

@Xorxes I thought the same thing at first with Fox, but TrPrado has me above Fox in his scumreads N1. Also the language he uses wrt Fox is pretty weak if he got a scan.

[xorxes]

I feel Fox and teacon are also probably scum. Nephthys falls in just behind them. I'm less sure about the rest, but rdrivera and damo seem like they're deserving of trying to pull more from. I haven't had the opportunity to do a deep dive after D2.

This is Prado's last post. He was probably scanning rivera or damo.

I will ##VOTE Fox for now.
