OH MY GOD, THEY LYNCHED YNNEK
I actually hadn't thought of that. It's very possible that Faddy sent out one of his shots last night before being killed.

Because you're avatar is Mantis, the most precious MCU character?

I can read.
I just choose not too.
@StanleyPalmtree, not to ignore your game:
I would shoot Saw
I would lynch Verelios
And protect yourself or Include.
But @Splinter wants a duel so I guess that's happening.

No, about my PSA
Your PSA sounds like you're trying to see and bait out the person who may have gotten the Vig shot.
Not saying you were or weren't but it could read like that

Nope.

Also i believe Namor is an Atlantean?
also is a giant asshole, its too bad you got him melon, i know the perfect comic page to post if voting/ hammering him.

That had should be a hadn’t but what can ya do
And nah this game is pretty much anticonducive to my normal style of playing with regards to the amount of time I can dedicate. So y’all get this low effort version of me. Sooooorry
melonrabbit

It's an unexpected move, no? Mainly gut but I feel something is lacking there.
I appreciate you calling me on it tho.
Even if he was scared of the vig why would he call it out as scum?

Why would I want to know about their contributions? The vig has a 50/50 chance to be revealed but the others don't.
Namor is a mutant too if I remember correctly.

I already said my best guess at what Grizzly was going for, but it’s all heresay so it doesn’t do us a ton of good. You’re right that it’s not impossible we had three scum pinned D1, but it’s highly unlikely lol
Shoot Zubz because he’s probably scum and is fine with coasting.
Vote Ynnek because he’s also probably scum but at least he’s shown up today more (conveniently now that he’s under scrutiny)
Protect..maybe Nomad? I feel like my top town reads aren’t likely to be shot at today. Nomad seems to be his normal off the wall self so he’s probably town. If the protect works into the night then Melon or Splinter, I could go either way.

Um, this is not a startling revelation. Anyone could deduct such a possibility from the flip(s). If he had shared insight from personal knowledge that might indicate alignment in some way. But this? No way.
He's just rehashing the flips and passing it off as Brand New Information.
And so it begins!
My phone battery is dying so I'll be gone for a while.
But I don't think Kawl is Mafia. And I don't think anybody I've interacted with is Mafia.

wait, does this mean you think Nomad would be likely to be shot today?
if so, why?
melonrabbit
The only good kind of melon
Okay. You asked me why he would call it out as scum. I Iiterally said the fact Verelios brought it to the forefront tells us nothing about his alignment. Because he told us basically nothing.
Unless you're a skimmer and in that case he did you a solid.
So I'm not sure where you getting me flipping any narrative here. I do find and still do highlighting the vig over the ITA boost and the possibility of Cable's items somewhat strange and in his own words unimportant to him.
Just so you all know, I'm not completely AFK
Most of the time I either don't really know what to say since I'm new and I'm not completely familiar with how it's played in a forum OR I simply read the posts I missed, to see if I can get any infos, I'm also a little busy these days, so,...yeah

Nope. Giving me some pause too.
Idk you say a lot. If it says nothing about his alignment why make the comment on it at all
I understand how you feel, I was like that when I was new. But we're on D2 now so you should hopefully have some idea of how to go about it now. Feel free to talk, ask people shit, bring up things we may have missed or discuss existing shit.
I'm still willing to give you the benefit of the doubt as being new is still fresh in my memory but you start to lose that newbie benefit the more time passes of course.

Do you or don't you agree that the former has less need/chance for secrecy? You never specified that.

Don't worry I don't plan to say "I'm new" for much longer, just gotta get used to how it's usually played in a forum then it should be all good

Because I don’t think I’ve ever seen Nomad live through a game other than Love Boat when he was tied to me and he isn’t so active or helpful as to avoid the potential of being shot today.

Pick some people that stand out to you for whatever reason and stick with them and try develop some reads on them. In my first game I followed people who's usernames sounded the coolest to me.
Trying to keep up with everyone will get you lost quickly.
A lot of us have played many, many, many time together and therefore tend to bullshit our reads with meta. So don't feel discouraged.

Shoot: Fireblend (inactive + defended Grizzly in one of his few posts, that probably applies to other inactives but he’s the only one I remember right now lol and that makes him at least slightly better than, say, Blarg.)
Vote: Kyanrute (he's got a whole lot of posts to say very little. A scum verelios would probably have a big impact though considering kyan's relative tunneling on him.) Tactician is reaaaally trying his best to take this spot though it seems.
Protect: Stuart (I'm not even going to touch the Grizzly fakeclaim anymore because it's super WIFOMy. But Stuart's got a whole lot of posts that do feel like they're trying to engage with the game on a level that feels earnest.)
VOTE: Kyanrute

Dude.
What’s mine say?
melonrabbit
The only good kind of melon
I agree that the vigilante can take a blind shot and apparantly has a 50/50 of it being disclosed, if that's what you are asking. But that's all from the flip text so I'm not sure what you're so interested in regarding that fact.
I forgot about Fireblend actually. I'm super curious now why he's not been around and not even been mentioned much until now (I mean I forgot about him until you brought him up but considering the size of the playerbase, it's easy to forget people not posting)
Apollo
Apollo will wreck your goddamn face
I’m kind of having trouble following this discussion, but I can see not bringing Cable items so as to not try to get whoever might have one to reveal that they do. And as far as the ITA buff goes, my assumption is that if it were used, it would be imperceptible to us.
Apollo
Apollo will wreck your goddamn face
I find that looking at the player list tends to lead to a lot of “wait, they’re playing?” moments. But yeah, Fireblend has been very lopsided in his appearances, showed up early on and hasn’t returned IIRC

So it seems like Grizzly threw in the towel when the voting first went down, shitposting etc. making more ppl vote for him
Then at some point decided to fight for himself, probably due to prodding by fellow scum, only it was too late?
Why did he give up so quick?
Still think we need a kawl flip. His play at the end of the day about claiming TD was during Grizz vote. Didn't really deter from grizz though. Idk.
Terraforce made note of a train forming on grizz.
Ynnek,Nin,Geno,hecht,apollo,crimsonfist,faircure,gorlak,polt, muffin were some of the last votes for grizz. Wouldn't be surprised if there were scum or two in there. ill be able to look closer at their interactions Friday evening, wn I get home.
As far as scumreading me due to yesterday, I still a and by my arguments made yesterday, even more so now that kawl says he didn’t do the td. Still say that kawl flip gives us answers. Will look at the ones who died’s interactions when I get more time, later in the evening.

Nothing was accomplished?? Nothing?? I’m having fun here. Isn’t that what the game is for?And nothing was accomplished.
Shawarma?
You posted that shizzle right when Grizzly climbed the top of the vote count with 7 votes.
Maybe you hoped to stir up shit and change the train, but that didn't work out.
Why did you unvote from Grizz? I saw nothing at all before or after where you justified it. So I'm confused as to why you jumped off like that even though you jumped back on later.
RE: night kills - CRIMSON - FADDY - HECHT
I mean holy shit, someone is afraid of capable players! This also means scum team has someone who has a very good insight into our community. Unless you want to apply these choices simply for going for Grizzly, but I doubt that's the case.
Where there any real arguments against Grizzly? Did anyone convincingly state a case?

Well what's the logic behind a Town!You doing something like that?
Doesn't make sense regardless of alignment but then again, neither did Grizzly's giving up the way he did.
Some shit might just be illogical.
Of course there is the whole doing it during the Grizzly stuff AND you voted for someone else because runaway trains are boring. While both of them alone may mean nothing, together, they might mean something.
Just something for people to think about really.
So I went to bat for an apathetic bear who couldn’t be assed to defend himself, claiming to use a power that’s almost certainly non town aligned, on the off chance it would stir shit up in what direction? Away from him but also away from me in this situation?
Faddy feels like a revenge push. The rest, idk, I've not played with them.
No one made a real case outside of meta reasons myself included so him giving up so easily is just odd instead of fighting against it.
Town me does it because it’s exciting and day ones are boooooring with out gambits. Scum me doesn’t because when I have actual teammates depending on me I try not to be an ass (unless Blarg is involved). Upside of scum me making that bullshit up is such a small percent versus possibly putting scum down two people quick as hell. Upside of town me doing it is likewise very small lol, but it really only affects me if people decide to be dumb and lynch me.
I was nowhere near convinced he was scum. I obviously tried to get something, anything moving in the thread (see my interaction with hecht, the natiko or kawl vote). Then there was the vibe against Grizzly, but no votes came in, so I actively supported Faddy's Grizzly vote and the wagon ensued.
Grizzly was behaving strange and softed. I unvoted to wait for his claim, which wasn't convincing me in the end.
Is this meta because again, no frame of reference if you're saying that's how you normally are. I'm just relying on what's in the game
And well, all your actions have been pretty illogical for any alignment imo.
Unless Blarg is involved though... damn, I wish he was here. People keep talking him up lmao.
Looking back now, (I feel dumb for missing this when I looked last night) but I see you unvoted after he softed so okay. This is understandable and not weird to me now.
Yeah possibly, I mean Grizzly was roleblock and godfather, looks pretty important to me and maybe worth a bad gambit. It's not like you've ever down sth. ridiculous as scum, right?
So you could be scum and the gambit leaves a strange impression, but I don't think it's worth lynching you today.
Verelios
Were-elios
I'm throwing it out there, but if Kawl was scum then why didn't he persist with the TD claim for a while more? Makes no sense to immediately recant in that case.
@Sawneeks Can you explain to me why you think I'm lost? Is it because I wasn't following why people were voting for Grizzly in the first place?
Also, people should not take my vote on Grizzly to mean anything other than what I put in my post. I completely assumed that Grizzly was telling the truth about his role and did indeed wanted to avoid a last-minute cluster**** before the day ended, which is something I've seen happen way too many times before.

Man you know that it doesn’t matter how good of a role someone has if they aren’t going to put in the effort. Scum doesn’t tie an additional rock around their neck day one for no gain.
I said it in my post but "pretty illogical for any alignment imo."

Oh, okay. Since I have you here, what do you think of melon today?
And the first ITA starts at an ungodly time, I'll probably be asleep.
No it’s not meta. I’m just talking about how Mafia is inherently much more of a team game when you are scum. The stakes are higher on your individual performance to not let down a much smaller number of people depending on you much more. This isn’t meta: I’d care more if I was scum. I’d be posting about how I’m totally going to go back and look over the thread and post reads yadda yadda cause that’s what people trying to do good would do. But I’m not and i don’t cause being bad town has a much smaller impact for your team.

Shoot: Kawl
Vote: Ynnek (shocking)
Protect: ....Kyan
b..but i thought we were magic buddies? ;;
want to give a litttttle more than that or am I just in the crosshairs for gut feels?
Kawl already said it but what makes him Scum?
also this post says roughly nothing.
Pretty much, yes. I can grab specific posts but you asked a couple questions towards the end of Day 1 I felt were very earnest and you were genuinely trying to find your way in this massive mess of a game.
Splinter

Elaborate please. I know this is kind of the consensus but after reflecting on it I disagree.
Besides, I don't want consensus opinion, I want Sawneek opinion.
Whether this is right or wrong, what does it give us?
I'll wait for Sawneeks' thoughts before answering this, but as alluded to above my opinion of melon changed afterward.
I liked this theory until monkey pointed out that Grizzly pushed the Vere train along to begin with.
I never really felt like that Vere lynch was going to happen tbh. I think everyone who was convinced by the event thing got their vote down pretty early, and the momentum was already against it.
There was a bit of a vacuum for a really strong lynch candidate, which is why the grizz vote picked up so easily. As far as I remember Faddy asked people to defend him, and when no one did went "yep, this'll do".
To piggy back off your theory though, maybe Kawl is worth a closer look. IIRC Grizz threw in the towel when Kawl started getting a few votes, maybe they feared a late swing?
4 pages to go, I'm gonna be late for work, aren't I?
You fucking what mate
this quote shows me as having said something I think sawneeks said. Just as a heads up as I was very confused...
mother dick, it's like I'm not even here. My case on Grizzly was not meta; it was based on him doing something really obviously scummy in pushing you.
in which I call bullshit right off because it looked bad
in which I tag Grizzly to make sure he saw - later I had to call him out again because he responded to others but ignored me
in which I counter his "it's my meta" defense by saying nah, it's not the only way you play or how you play all the time
just me staying on it
not letting up because he was roleblocked
pointing out he was ignoring me (I quoted all my posts back to him but skipped that one here)
countering Grizzly's defense, which was scummy as hell
case based on Grizzly being too smart to do what he was doing as town, not his meta - but also noting that after he started pulling the "meta" defense, he changed his play
just other ruminations after he softed
post-claim
saying the same shit I'm saying now because damn, I guess no one sees me
Honestly, Stuart.
I replied to someone about Alexem earlier. Not sure if I feel they are scum or not but keeping an eye on them whenever they post that is.
But as for the first two, I am unsure on Ynnek but I'm keeping an eye on them now after you pointed out their vote.
Zeke... I just forgot about them honestly. Sorry ^^;

You're either a Townie who doesn't give a fuck about other Townies or you're a Neutral with a goal.
there's little to lose if you are either of these options.
I am feeling some kinda way about thread clogging back-and-forths that don't seem to be hunting scum and wondering if there's some bad-faith posting going on to purposely obfuscate and get things lost in a big game, honestly.
Also so now the theory is I threw my hat in the ring for a gambit to save apathetic bear only for him to then fall on the sword when i got heat for a claim that was never going to be taken as town aligned...
Come on splinter you’re better than that.
Wait what am I saying? Never mind, that’s exactly what I would expect from you

Also people keep revolving around you (see: Zeke and current Kawl talk) that people are gonna be stubborn on so I'd rather take this gamble then have you be the lynch choice.

Sorry again though Monkey. I'll try no to forget like that again.
Well, she seems to be pretty active but hasn't done much in the way of moving the conversation forward. That said, I think that she, along with everyone else, are just biding their time until the ITAs start. I'm kinda curious why you want my specific opinion since I haven't really interacted with either you or her though lol.
Speaking of which, I'm totally using mine on Rynam today.
