Tables did you not want to go on the mission with me? ;(

Desiring to generally gather more information first perhaps? Or stalling until you'd get the hammer?

Pretty much both, yes. And right now, I don't have much info on you, so it's a 50/50 shot if you're a spy or resistance.

I do actually agree with Lio, to an extent. Mail-mi played very close to his chest as a spy last game. Even when his (known) partner was on mission, he still often voted no. Now he's voting yes off mission because he thinks people look town? Perhaps it's just trying something different, but that does look kind of good to me. And I kinda get a good vibe from Lio as well for pointing it out. As a spy he'd be about to propose double spy if he's lying, which is possible but risky, and if Mail-mi is resistance, then it's kind of odd play to point out what he pointed out, when it could easily be used to slime mail-mi.

Hmm... so far I've gotten slight resistance reads from Yuma, Lio, mail-mi and to a lesser extent Jimm. At least one of those is a spy. I need to be more discerning and critical, I think.

Oh are we posting "reads"? That sounds fun.

Here's an awesome colorized chart of my current suspicion level, with lowest on top:

WalrusMcFishSr (obvs)
Tables
liopoil
Jimmmmm
chairs
mail-mi
yuma


No offense, anyone, this is based on the barest of conjecture and gut feelings.

Are we? No, I was just mentioning my thoughts with regard to Lio's post and then following up with another thought. But okay, earlygame, thoughts can change.

Haha I know. I'm just excitable because it's like my first time.

Thought I'd keep the conversation moving forward at least.

I take great offense to being the color red. Great offense. Seriously. I should be blue or green or beige. Those are your options, I recommend you pick one of them.

Interestingly I think you are at the top of my suspicions list

Hm. Do you have reasons? I personally don't find Yuma the scummier, by far.

I currently imagine mail-mi wearing a dark trenchcoat and a bowler hat, hunched over a bit, toothpick in his mouth, holding a gun in his pocket.  One bead of sweat trickling down his nose.

Oh ho! Fair enough honestly. These things tend to have a reciprocality to them, I suppose, and I am pretty suspicious.

Red is really very harsh. It should be more of a salmon pink.

Sure, but as I said the reasons are very tenuous.

Tables seems like he has been leading the most genuine and concerted effort to help the Resistance, that's why I nominated him on the mission.

liopoil hasn't posted quite as much, but I'm feeling Resistance. The statements he made about how seeing the votes ahead of time helped him as spy rang true to me.

Jimmmmm I also think seems like Resistance but somehow my read on him is more neutral. Giving advice for proper Merlin play for example seemed useful. The fact that he (jokingly) asked to go on the first mission and then chairs nominated him seemed a little off to me.

chairs again with the odd first proposal, plus just seems a little flustered to me in general

mail-mi honestly hasn't said much...you end up down here in the "lurk zone" by default

yuma just because your posts have been kind of huge and blocky, and you took a strong position and then reversed it suddenly when it came under fire. Again not much to go on at all--really more of a salmon pink :)

Well. It's 1.4 and its either mine or tables. Speaking of tables, I have a resistance read on him, so I think I'll propose mail-mi and tables.

So we're picking between this and whatever Tables will choose. Any thought on who you'd take Tables?

Right now I'm leaning towards either Yuma or Liopoil. Yuma because I liked him arguing a point and making himself visible earlier in the game, and also because if he's resistance and his missions later in the game pass, I get the hammer. Lio because he has 2.5 hammer, although I'm less confident in him.

Chairs, why the yes vote?

As I said before I'm leaning towards one of Lio or Yuma. I'd also consider Mail-mi. But I'd like to hear why Chairs voted yes to that first.

If you have to flip a coin, the answer is to reject I think.

I guess, though if Tables gets to choose his own partner don't we run into the problem that if he's a goon/traitor/whatever that he could fake-IC one of the other ones by sharing the mission with them and only one failing?

Or, more aptly put, they don't have a QT together.

How would they coordinate that though? I am correct in assuming now that they have no source of outside communication? Haha. I mean I guess they could drop subliminal clues here, but that would be dangerous and possibly ineffective.

Maybe I'm just confused, but it seems like they might run into a situation where both fail by accident. I'd imagine that the safer thing to do were just to pass the mission anyway, as we had discussed is the most likely outcome.

Which wouldn't tell us much. I've got a town lead on Tables anyway, so I figured I would just let him pick the mission and I would be cool with that. It could be an interesting bit of information to see whom he decides upon.
