Aspiring Rapper's MAFIA- Game Thread

Ehhh. A Town ability to survive a lynch? Really?

I don't think so. That's a scum role.

Okay, my main reasons for defending Lassie have been that he felt towny in pushing a strong view on various people being scum, and a number of the arguments were okay. I didn't feel any avoidance of getting into the thick of the scumhunting. On a more personal level, he's been suspicious of me mainly because of my first post, which I specifically crafted for a purpose and thus should look scummy to people who don't understand it.

The claim, however, feels really strange game-mechanics -wise.

What's your updated thoughts, now that I have revealed the claim was made up?
 
Lassie or Cuth would be OK with me today, but I will actually take BL’s lead and vote: Murska. Can’t say I have been able to keep up all that well, but I am back from my trip to Dublin and things seem to have calmed down some in the game. I should be better able to keep up from here on out.



This is certainly an interesting development, and it would be good to know if someone was blocked, but it would be hard to know without outing the blocker.

Why would Cuth and I be OK lynches, and how is BL's lead on Murska convincingly better to you than your own thoughts on Cuth and I?
 
Hi again.

I was away from the internets for a couple of days. Sorry for missing a day phase.

I'm at work at the moment and have much to do.
For now, I'll Vote: Cuthillius for the oddities I mentioned in my earlier post. (Sorry, I don't have a convenient link because it's annoying to get on mobile.

I thought Lassie looked town before, at least to me. I'll have to read a bit to see why the votes, though.

So just for the record, Xym had me towards town before my claim - but contains his vote on me still after I revealed it was made up. Of course he can still find that scummy, that I made up a claim, but it's still a bit suspicious how I change from someone he mentions as being towny to being his top scum, solely based on that.
 
vote: Lassie

Mat you said stuff on D1, then you also cried a little in thread when put under pressure on D2. Now on D3, you're saying nothing, apart from this wrong vote on me, how come? Give us a top 5 - you've been active enough that you should be able to have 5 people(or more) who you find scummy
 
I don't feel like Lassie is scum.

Vote: Al Sipsclar, on the other hand, has not done anything to dissolve my suspicions on him from the first day.

Can you explain why you don't think I'm scum? I mean, I'm top wagon, at this time it would be pretty nice if you cared to put word into that, if you actually want it to have any effect
 
Sorry, you're not feeling well, Pizza. I am both happy and daunted to see how huge this thread is. I've scanned the last 10 pages or so, and this doesn't read as Visor's scum self. Lassie's analyses don't feel quite right to me, probably my top suspect, but they're out there enough that I want to see them tested. It's almost certainly too late to shift the votes today, but I will vote:Xym as he felt off to me as well and is on Lassie's list.

@Autolycus , I'm your top suspect but you vote someone else because he is on my list :crazyeye:

I'd like you to explain this for me
 
Wow, 17 pages already. Is Majiffy back?
Anyhow, until I have a chance to read the thread, vote: Kenning.

Fairly neutral opener

On page 7 now. I have a scumtell for Visor. When he jokes he's scum - he is.
Vote: Visorslash

Also fairly neutral - Visor was indeed joking a lot, and from what I've been able to understand, that is more of a scum tell for him.

So, I just skipped to the last page (in my kid-sized 20-post pages) and I see that things already got uncivil, and I'm topping the board! :goodjob:

Sorry, I can't keep up with you, guys. I've got to page 17, and I don't think I've got the time to read the rest.

Allow me to explain my vote on Visor.

This. Visor, I actually do hold you to a high standard. One that I'm aspiring to achieve myself, but apparently, not in this game. :)

It comes to rewards/risks. Risk of you being scum and your inevitable gloating in the end that you told us this on D1 but nobody believed you, outweighs any reward that an unhelpful town Visor may bring to the table.


Well, I already have been worshipping you, so you may just as well start acting like one. "What Would Visor Do?" - is the question I sometimes ask myself when playing mafia. :)

Alright, Visor seems to come to his senses by page 17, so I'm going to Unvote, though certainly regret it later, when he flips scum.
I like Lassie and Glossy driving the discussion and prodding folks for reaction. This is something I usually try to do, too.
Cuthillius I find hard to read. I have a scum bias against him, even when he's town. :(
Similarly, I always have a town bias for landlubber, even when he's scum.
Under no circumstances I'm going to defend Takhisis this game. :)

Cass_ has voted early in the day phase. That is something she flat out refused in the last game we played together. Why the policy change?
The bolded sentences feels like a towny progress and reasoning. As scum, I see little reason why he would care to write the first part, if he knows he's about to unvote Visor anyway.

I should have probably just sat it out this round, but I don't like the leading wagons.


I welcome this change.

The actual problem I have is that I have not had a chance to read most of the posts, so I can't form an opinion. Things got busy IRL. :(
I always read Cuth as scum. I have to consciously challenge this read every time.

Anyhow, from what I did read, I don't like Lassie's or Arakhor's lynch, so I Vote: choxorn

Wanting to change wagons away from me and Arakhor is definitely not a bad thing. Only worry here, would be that it could be TMI(since both Arakh and me are/were town).

Yeah, I don't think Visor is scum. Not sure about Xym. I've got too many town leans. :(
I'll be happy to Vote:choxorn again.

This is on D2, and I don't think it's too weird for him to want to lynch Chox again. And him saying that Visor isn't scum, goes in line with him going away from Visor on D1. So not as bad as I thought on first impression(felt it could be TMI).

Conclusion is that I see nothing strongly indicating Al should be scum. Not that I see anything that strongly indicates he is town either, especially not with that little activity. Anyway I'll argue he's a bad choice for lynch today.
 
Can you explain why you don't think I'm scum? I mean, I'm top wagon, at this time it would be pretty nice if you cared to put word into that, if you actually want it to have any effect

You quoted my reasoning a couple posts above this one.

Anyway, as for my updated thoughts... Meh. I don't like made-up claims by Town, generally Town lying just causes confusion and communication issues. I guess it means I won't switch my vote to you, but I'm not really convinced.

You don't have any other game relevant thoughts to share?
 
Oh, i though arakhor's role was "dice rollah" because i never bothered to recheck after reading his death

Still, i'll vote lassie, take what you will of it

Keeping tabs while dead does not nean i am intinately familiar with every post. Call me lazy, that's fine
 
argh lassie's recent stretch of posts seem really townie, but I keep switching off and getting burned :sad:

what to do
 
mat93 I'm in on that.
Also, there's not that many hours left - so it's about time we make another wagon than me.
I'm fine with mat vs me, and everyone places a vote on one of us. Rather than me vs 3-4 wagons that aren't going to happen, resulting in me getting lynch still.
 
Why would Cuth and I be OK lynches, and how is BL's lead on Murska convincingly better to you than your own thoughts on Cuth and I?

You:
- Have been all over the place since D1
- Made a claim that is certainly not townie in nature, then pulled back hard saying you just made it up for “reactions”
- Initially demanded to know details of other players but didn’t want to give your own details.
- Basically have been shady and wishy washy all game
- I am not voting for you now because frankly you have a lot of votes on you already and one more won’t really be helpful at all.

Cuth:
- To be honest I don’t have a strong case against him, more of a feeling and knowing that I and others suspected him earlier in the game.

Murska:
- I respect BL’s reads on people, and am willing to give some weight to his accusation, especially because Murska has not been a top contender and is currently nowhere near the lead for the lynch. I also much prefer close votes instead of runaway wagons and was willing to help start a counter wagon on a new candidate.

Overall I have not been that present in this game. It has been hard for me to even keep up, let alone pick out the finer nuances in posting that tend to be the main leads on cases. No scum have been killed yet, so we have little to go on with respect to voting analysis, and there is no private communication in this game so normal back channel networking has not been possible. Even if there have been 30 whispers of evidence so far his game, there are still 1700+ shouts drowning them out. Bottom line is I don’t have much in the way of any solid cases or reasons to lynch anybody.
 
Meh, I'm also fine with a unvote; vote: Mat93 counter wagon. Doesn't seem like the Murska wagon is going to get started and I'd much prefer the vote to be close.
