alright troop

Again, I do not understand.

You don't think that the votes came in quick?

 

[Sky]

Again with an insulting tone. What have I done this game to warrant such venom?

Partly alarm at how you seem to be flouting the core principles of How To Play Mafia

But partly a reaction test, your continued reservèdness makes me wonder why you're still so worried to stick your neck out even when you're under pressure already

 

[Poyser]

Town core
Looch, Wang, Jean, Brett

I have doubts on Smark due to:
* jumping on juice indy spec
* jumping on the scum hider role spec

Fuji null, he's just throwing insults. Sky sheeping.

Troop can be town lean see exact same play as last game.

Poyser town lean

actually yeah can you explain that entire town core please lol? I know you've said a bit about jeff, but I'd appreciate it if you could let us know what these "town tells" are

 

[Poyser]

Again, I do not understand.

you've got 3 votes?

I don't follow......

I'm not worried to stick my neck out. I have accepted my fate.

Flouting core principles?

 

[Lethal]

you've got 3 votes?

isn't it 4?

 

[Poyser]

isn't it 4?

dunno thought it was 3, but dont really think they came fast did they? you got 2 votes, claimed, I unvoted, you refused to give reads, i revoted and sky voted

dont really see what angle you're trying to push other than peddling a really generic idiom that doesn't even apply

brett - hider claim.
jean - he's not being slimy. i'll keep the tell close to my chest though
wang - complete different to last game. seems actually interested in solve rather than commentary
looch - i liked his big post way back when. would need to iso to find it and explain what was liked.

And accepting your fate = not sticking your neck out in this case. You're just curling up and waiting to die. Would not be surprised if you've already asked a mate to bus at this point

 

[Lethal]

@Poyser do you still subscribe to the kill me if Juice flips town moment?

I'm not going to waste my energy to argue off the rope for hours. Have you even seen me play mafia? Are yu sticking your neck out or just resigned to being an eternal sheep?

 

[Poyser]

Sure, if you wanna come for me then come

My two major #LoochThoughts

I still think there might be something in a quick, outta nowhere train, which would make Poyser or Jean might go up in the possible scum assessment, even if it's not by much. Both did try to steer the ship somewhat too... not sure if that could mean anything.

Heck, there's still the possibility Juice and either Brett, Poyser or Jean are scum and they tried something there, but that would be an incredible gamble at this point in time, even if a lynch was likely not happening.

We have a lot of not really active players still too, so that is something to keep in mind.

Right now the vibes I got from this first phase is that we have at least one scum in the group of Juice, Jean, Brett and Poyser. I think there were some shenanigans going on these last couple of hours. Poyser trying to pull Brett back onto Juice or don't really answering me about their decision to go for Juice seemed off too..

I also have that feeling one of the least active players so far are also in the baddies, which would be Smark, Avie, Troop... Fuji and Mochii haven't posted yet, so I dunno if I would count them to those

Which leaves Booty, Lethal, Wang, Sky and myself. At the moment, I don't feel like Booty or Sky are Mafia, while Wang and Lethal were relative unsuspicious, but not that involved compared to the other two, imo.

So for now I can really only go with a gut feeling and go

Vote Poyser

I liked this post a lot at the time but given that I can't see past town!Poyser that colours it a lot. This is in hindsight just a shrug vote that includes things like inctive hunting, and that bottom paragraph is a bunch of shrug town that is mostly consensus and one potential mate in Lethal. The fact that Brett jumped right on it looks even worse for Brett than it does Looch but the hider claim gives me pause on Brett

Unless they both are scum, which is highly unlikely, of course, but it would probably make Poyser safe for almost the rest of the game if Juice turns out to be scum. ... Maybe I have the timing on this wrong, but I didn't feel it was quite unnecessary at that moment, since we still had quite some time on the clock and Smark was turning to look at Poyser. ... I don't remember, was this after or before Smark and Juice calmed down again, because that could also played a part in it.

It really sucks... since Juice claimed to have some possibly auspicious role, I can't shake the feeling we're about to lynch not just townsfolk here, but possibly important townsfolk at that... but then again, what other options do we have now? Switching onto someone completely different in the last hours of the phase in hopes we hit someone bad by luck, while getting the top 2-3 on the list of suspects investigated and returned as clean?

It sucks a lot, but what else can we do now? I said Poyser or Juice before, but it would be wrong not to include Smark here, with what transpired in the second half of the phase. Either of the three would give us the most to go off on, imo, including about the two we don't lynch out of those three.

Well... great...

Conversely I despised these posts at the time and I still do now, a massive pre-flip of Juice town and a very performative "what you gonna do" attitude about it.

 

[Poyser]

brett - hider claim.
jean - he's not being slimy. i'll keep the tell close to my chest though
wang - complete different to last game. seems actually interested in solve rather than commentary
looch - i liked his big post way back when. would need to iso to find it and explain what was liked.

whats the difference between your reasons for having the likes of wang/looch as town core but troop only a town lean? I was basically asking how you got them to town core, that implies a high degree of confidence

 

[Sky]

@Poyser do you still subscribe to the kill me if Juice flips town moment?

Was that ever the plan?? Because last time I checked Poyser actually offered himself up if Juice flipped town which felt unnecessary and so towny
