I’m really good for either Awalcus or Pubby. I could be persuaded either way. But I gtg in about 25 minutes so I better make my choice lol. Any last ditch arguments for or against them?

« on: February 12, 2020, 07:13:47 pm »@ari: ooh ooh i get to do a Faust impression
I do not think it would be protown to share my thoughts on glooble.
If you've read my previous games (I don't expect you to), then you'll know that Faust refusing to share info is a bit of a pet peeve of mine. Alas, you've seemed towny thus far save for your Faust impersonation so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. I hope in retrospect you actually had a good town reason not to share, else I'll be super pounce-ey on anyone who even remotely resembles Faust's refusal to share non PR info.

« on: February 12, 2020, 05:51:35 pm »What exactly is making shraeye look townie?
I’m going to assume his is directed at me and so reply:
vote: GloobleWho should he defend? What is a ingenuous defense? How distracting is his vote?
Not a fan of him defending Pubby here. He could be defending a partner, or he could be defending someone he knows to be town, but the defense feels disingenuous, and the shift to Shraeye right after MiX voted Shraeye feels like an intentional attempt at distraction.
I like this line of questioning. To the point and towny.
It was ari for me tooI remember ari
Sarcasm: remembering me is inherently towny.
I also am just a fan of Shraeye’s general tone? IK that’s really subjective evidence but mafia is a really subjectively played game. Especially bastard mafia.
I’m not going to be here AT the deadline but I should be on at least an hour before so I can revise my vote then.
Unvote
I’m leaning towards voting Awalcus. Not sure yet tho.

My thoughts on the game state, reading it over:
This feels like rolefishing, as has already been discussed.
I was under the impression that “bud” was a pretty universally recognized term. If, in fact, the scum are getting beer named roles, then IMHO the chances that MiX received one are pretty slim, because he would then be faking ignorance about what “bud” refers to and that seems way too gutsy and blatant for a shifty mafia move. This very slightly strengthens my town read of MiX.
Ahhh, classic MiX. I’m going to be very surprised if he flips scum. Keeping on Pubby like this doesn’t seem like something an indifferent scum would do. Either scum need Pubby in particular dead (unlikely, but I’ll grant this is a bastard game so anything is possible) or MiX gets more townpoints from me. Of course, I’m bad at forum mafia so take everything with a grain of salt.
...Bruh. Scumpoints for Awalcus.
Ari is not short for Aristotle but I very much wish it was.
Hilarious.
And now some random reads.
Shraeye is looking a little more towny than scummy.
Glooble had that weird claiming to think he had a N1 action? I’m not a fan of that. Finger of suspicion. Glooble also scumreads Cayvie at some point, which I also don’t like because I town read Cayvie so far. Glooble’s reaction to his wagon seems just a liiiiiittle excessively manipulative. I mean, I get that even if you’re town you have to manipulate the town to not die, but I prefer someone like me who goes like “Eh, I’m sure my innocence will shine through”. It also seems like Cayvie corroborates? I could be reading wrong. Cayvie, any new thoughts on Glooble? MiX, you seem to disagree if I read right. Thoughts?
Raerae: very very slight scumread? Of course that puts my scumreads to 3 so I’m probably wrong somewhere.
I can’t read Didds. Thoughts?
Off topic of people and reads:
I don’t think we should no lynch.
Any questions for me in particular? I seemed to avoid scrutiny for an inordinate amount of time, and I’m surprised a wagon didn’t form on me sooner. (Apologies again for my absence, I didn’t have a mobile device and time was very limited on my desktop so I wasn’t able to give this game the attention it deserved.) Now that ya’ll are actually squinting at me, feel free to interrogate me.
Does anyone else have a Bud Light themed roled?
This feels like rolefishing, as has already been discussed.
I just assumed it was only buddy, that explains everything. Thanks Didds!

I still don't understand why you voted cayvie, pubby, what was it for?

Where’s Awaclus?
Awa, what do you think of things so far?
1) Here.
2) Things are nice, I like things.
...Bruh. Scumpoints for Awalcus.
Plus Ari could he short for Aristotle which is its own breed of awesomeness in naming.
#teamrhetoric
Ari is not short for Aristotle but I very much wish it was.
he's too silent for the most active person on fds
Pretty sure some of the fan card creators are more active than I am.

« on: February 08, 2020, 07:24:12 pm »It was Awa for me, which was why I said hey to him specifically. Rae and Galz have been super scarce which is a shame because ❤️ them.
Pubby and Ari (I looked at abbreviating AriShipShape like WCD but that’s was ASS and that felt mean) have been scarce, too but less so than the three above, in my mind.
One of the best things about MiX is that he’s super present. This is turning into a Cayvie strength, too.
It would have been mean, but relatively accurate to my abilities. I basically got lucky and happened to be on a team of good people for all my victories. I also played quite hustle and bustle and bluster but without stopping to consider the ramifications of my actions. I'm trying to play a lot more subdued, tactically, and smarter now, but I suppose saying more stuff is probably smart. Apologies for my lack of activity.
MiX and Cayvie's activity is definitely playing a huge part in my town read of them. For now.

When you said "MiX is awesome" were you attributing a townread or was it just something meaningless?

« on: February 06, 2020, 06:09:28 pm »what's the deal with N0 actions? How did anyone think they have that?
That was me. It’s a bastard game, anything is possible.
Also, I didn’t notice this had started, I had a very busy day at work and wasn’t at my computer much.
Glooble has a night action absolutely without a doubt confirmed. Since it's bastard this doesn't tell us whether that increases the scum or town likeliness but it's still good to know. Ima keep my vote on pubby.

Exhibit A: Datswan copy pastes claims.
"Each night you may target a player to investigate. You will receive a result of “Can Kill” if they are capable of killing a player at night but have not yet done so. If they cannot kill, or if they have already killed someone, you will receive a result of “Cannot Kill.” This investigation resolves before the night’s kill.
You win when all Mafia are dead and at least one town-aligned player is alive."
Exhibit C:
If Datswan copy pasted, he would have said "Arishipshape Cannot Kill". Not "Ari can't kill". We know he is aware people can make a stink about this and copypastes to avoid it. Ergo, he is not the psychologist.
Intent to hammer.
I've never hammered on purpose before: how long am I supposed to wait before hammering?
So now i copy paste whenever i claim anything but VT.Exhibit B: Psychologist would receive a result of "Cannot Kill" (I'm to lazy to quote the original post and trim it down, so have a regular quote)
"Each night you may target a player to investigate. You will receive a result of “Can Kill” if they are capable of killing a player at night but have not yet done so.

The way I see it, there's one psychologist and 3 scum that would totally claim psychologist if challenged. I would totally take those odds, but I'm gonna hold off my vote on the off chance the real psychologist claims, or to let Datswan say the results of N1 investigation.

« on: May 06, 2019, 02:09:43 pm »Well guess what? I tried talking all the time and telling others to do so. I was all "It's always best for everyone to say everything!" Earned me scum points. I tried making a case against a scum read: earned me scumpoints. So, if shutting up is actually pro town, I guess I better do that. I am the number 1 talk all the time proponent: I am also town and don't want to get lynched, so that's why I'm being quiet. Yes, I know I can't get lynched today. Then again, I've been quiet long enough. I think I undid the scumpoints day 1 me earned, so it's time to be pro town once more. MiX, I'm a fan of ADK's analysis post, it seems like a nice amalgamation of information on the lynch candidates and a pro town move. Care to elaborate on why you think it's not impartial?Why are you in the shadows?I've had nothing to say. I offered for people to interrogate me:Anyone want to ask me anything?Nobody took me up on it.
I slightly townread Joth for his posts as gladiator, but really I'm just waiting for Datswan at this point.
You should be proactive: reads don't fall from the sky. Also talking should make you easier to read: right now we basically only have your D1 posts. But it's a bit late to change that, the challenge will always speak louder than our individual actions for the rest of this day. I think.
Can someone wake up Swan?
