Norse Mythology Mafia - Game Thread

[Evans]

Well to be as pal as possible that's none of your business as it's personal and we ain't that close. Pals though.

Also I've been SWAMPED at work as they're doing personal reviews and shit, so we've had to up quotas and logs so I'm just drained. Add onto that what I've already stated that I'm just completely over having that bite and pushing an agenda that isn't followed or recognised. Hell, I had a hunch on Magic and it was wrong. Confidence is low.

I'll ask you this - do you think I'm that dense that I'd pull the same tact two games running? In Star Wars I was using my lore knowledge to feign activity. So far we've had to shift through your diatribe with Smark, the Chloe ramblings, OMBs census shot and not much else from my end.

Oh, I thought you meant you had something in-game related for why there's been no bite based on this post v

Yup my bite is lacking, but I assure you it's for good reason. Level headed approach you know. Completely follow.

I think it stinks and FOS'd him. Even voted him for it. Dislike his toxic approach to the suspicion and hindsight abuse for lynching Haza.

Sorry man, didn't mean to pry. Hope all is well!

I’m back

The Magic kill isn’t as interesting as people make out IMO. People are bald cowards because Magic is a tough lynch and comes into the game later on so they wanted him out of the game. I don’t understand the approach of looking at people Magic has sussed (he was pushing for a no lynch at end of D1) as Magic usually works off town reads and POE’s the game early. With Poyser not in play early, look for the people who are trying to control the narrative, not the ones Magic was pushing - it feels like a misdirection. I’ll look at this, but in the meantime





This is odd. Gonna actually throw down any sort of opinion there Tweet? So far you “wouldn’t mind pushing” me. Why? What’s tweaked you about me in the 24 hours I’ve been away? If you’re going to say something you need to back it up because this feels like you’re just nudging things along and seeing what sticks without actually doing anything and hedging your bets between me and Lethal because apparently we are aligned? Scummy play. Why do you think Lethal and me are aligned, what about either of our play leads you to that opinion, because I don’t think I’ve even commented on lethal (more on that later) and vice versa?



I don’t have to agree with your wagon, despite thinking you made good points early. I liked the posts you made around Barry, but I had my own direction that I liked at the point of the Flay wagon and lent my vote to it (note, I say direction, not wagon - I’m not claiming to have created the case or led it). Flay is an easy D1 wagon and you know it’s happened a hundred times because he’s naturally an ass, especially as town. In fact, I actually like Flay less from his play around the end of Day - not just because he appeared literally as Day ended, but he also started analysing the wagon on Haza (half heartedly in my view) and seemed much more involved, whereas town Flay would create chaos. You haven’t mentioned Flay since. What are your thoughts on Flay now? If it helps your thought process, I like you a lot less now than I did then.

I’ll comment on the lethal points separately as there’s a limit to what I can quote and find on my phone.

I know you don't have to agree with my reasoning but when you said you don't like the flay direction because he's an easy target that kind of indicates that it's something scum will go for. if you think it's being pushed by town then you think the reasoning just isn't right but him being an easy target implies there is an agenda. and I can't give thoughts on flay right now because I've only read a small portion of the thread, going to catch up fully now.

Oh yeah there's also game-related and it directly relates to my claim, so I guess I'm just going to do it because I can't be assed engaging in this for hour after hour, phase after phase

Odin, Asgard Aligned, Steward of Valhalla. I am the King of Asgard and the Allfather of the Norse Pantheon. As such, I oversee Valhalla. During the events of Ragnarök, I was fated to face Fenrir and be devoured.

Basically I am a passive role but if I am killed, Valhalla is destroyed. If I am augmented, I gain an additional perk that will be revealed upon augmentation.

Told you it was huge.

Here are a few posts that pinged me reading back, since the crux of his current suspicion is a good guy read (which is something that was successfully used last game)

My goodness that Smark/E-V exchange just never ended. Ever. I mean, not to be a pot calling the kettle black (as I've been guilty of countless tunneled arguments) but wow, that was quite tiresome. That said, I have a hunch it's town/town exchange as Evans is doubling down on the case, it's consistent, he's not "reaching" for anything and certainly isn't paper pushing. Smark, from my experiences, wouldn't bring so much attention to himself on D1 with his posting and hysterical-like reactions to the exchanges. Happy to put them both in town. I'm also going to put TKOK in my town column as he's actually reading through the thread, interacting and contributing. Odd tell, but I've been wrong on him so many times before through limited content and will trust a Magic observation about his habits.

Would like to hear a little bit from Jeff, but iirc, he was having family over or something so he MAY be occupied with that, at least he indicated as much in Discord the other night (WIFOM ftw)

Got some quotes to pop in now too

first part of the post is ok. the later part though has that patented buddying/hedging feel to it.

Relax dude. Sure, it will suck if you're lynched and go on to lose the game, but surely you want to ensure your longevity in the game as long as you can to ensure that your team wins, no? Win condition and all. Have you slipped as an indy?

here he attempts to calms Smark down.

Surely they wouldn't be so transparent to provide this excessive WIFOM right in front of us? Surely. Move Tweets into a town lean as well

this is the quote that states he leans town on Tweet. Ive rereadthe exhange, and yeah, looks VERY generous.

It's almost as if the aim of the game is to cast doubt on people and seek information about them to push cases and achieve results? Chill. We're all remember

another attempt to calm Smark down. May be just being trying to right the ship, but in the buddying context, it may also be another attempt at good guying smark.

Sucks having to provide comments/opinions during downtime and not being "live" in the game as I feel so inadequate and behind. Hopefully my contributions are deemed acceptable and somewhat beneficial

this pinged me because we had a post game discussion, and I specifically said it sucked for Lethal sometimes due to not reading live. Since there's been a few instances where he's refereed previous techniques he's used as well, this is starting to feel like a lot of self awareness and using previous conversation to seem natural.

Ooft Jeff has 7 posts and Poyser 4. That said, I'm not going to suss them over lack of posts. Things do pop up.

more non committal good guying

I stated that Magic almost always signposts for TKOK and vouches to "never lynch him," so his later post of suggesting to vote TKOK seemed rather out of character and suspicious. He later claimed it was a test to see who followed. What are you trying to get from me? If I didn't know any better, I'd be hazard to suggest that you're after your next easy lynch target. Don't try and twist my words or intentions to suit your agenda

And here he lashes out at Tweet. One of the reasons Tweet suspected me day 1 last game, was due to my play around him (Ie, i went from good guying him to giving him massive attitude) which didn't really track well with the read I had on him. I see some similarities here too.

Welp. That kind of sounds legit

This is legit. Look elsewhere boys.

I need to re-evaluate. It sounds like a sort of developer/beloved princess hybrid?

Vote: Smark

He's just disappeared.

Evans, your thoughts on CP claiming he was "too busy" to provide his reads (which you liked iirc) and then go on to make ~10 posts after even though SO BUSY but never answering your question?

 

[Canadian Dragon]

I'd say that's way too specific of a role to fake. Only thing I could see is it being a fake for some weird valhalla/hel related role, but I'm not really willing to put stock in that atm

 

[Canadian Dragon]

oh and with that claim I think we should

vote cp

 

[Alco]

What's the deal with CP? I'm doing some reading back, but i've missed good chunks.

I'll follow my town read Big Man once again then

unvote
vote Haza

This might be a reason I guess?

Why is Big Man a town read of yours?
