I'm just saying like I've never seen two JOATs before in one game so it's not out of the realm of possibility, but I'm also saying I threw out a re-director theory because of my N1 and I actually did use my power last night on NGO. Idk, with all this poo poo this game you being like "well I'm a weird target for a re-director" doesn't mean it did/didn't happen. Anything is possible as Kevin Garnett would say.

I don't want to hammer another theory to death (especially if it's the only way to convince me you're town) because I think there's just a high chance you're scum or 3P.

I'm kind of interested to hear what NGO/Solus has to say in reply to all of this poo poo today because they're the only players I trust right now

I get your reluctance of Spoonsy in this scenario (if you are a JOAT) but he has at least given back results for one night. It's just like, none of your actions have the ability to be confirmed by anyone else and your one claim was yet another track tonight after you got named in an Ecco Rolecop list and you claimed you saw me go nowhere when I very clearly have a role that goes somewhere.

Also not sure I've ever seen a JOAT with a hide ability which is suss but I don't think I've seen one with a gunsmith either so hm

I’m unclear as to your N1 claim at this point. Did you visit Jen x, regardless of intent, or didnt you?

I've said for 3 days now I visited Tokes and I was seen at Jen's. The fact that you and pera were actually there makes me believe I was re-directed there.

And my comment had nothing to do with doubting your cop claim (I've said I think you're a cop), it's just interesting to note.

Anyway my focus is completely on Hal/Spoonsy or the potential "Ecco Cop" list depending on if we think Spoonsy is telling the truth.

This is not fun. Please remember rule 1 of this game. Gotta be cool to be nice. I think you are scum. You're repeated mocking of me and trying to make me second guess my play because I'm new is not cool or nice. I'm sure that's part of the reason I think you are scum, because busted scum being mean makes some kind of sense to me. While you being a dick to me if you actually are town sure doesn't seem like what I would think is good town play. It certainly isn't making me believe your reads.

So I'm trying really hard to not just read you as scum because you are being such a dick to me this game, making me not want to ever play with you ever again. You cannot insult me into backing off my reads because I'm a new player, and I read you as scum.

I’m treating you with relative kid gloves precisely *because* you’re new. Other players have and will get much worse for bad play. Yours is excusable if sincere and commendable if insincere.

“Meanness” is subjective, and if you’re going to play this game I’m going to hold you to a high standard. Somber hasn’t used ecco’s old rule template but there’s a particularly relevant point about that. If you think me making fun of your bad posts makes me scummy that’s your prerogative, but it’s not good play.

Sep 6, 2010

Onto the point, ngo is a high value clear because he was thought of as worth lynching before a suspicious low-content push saved him. That’s wildly suspicious for a given player and could very well have taken our focus today. Clearing him through results forestalls that waste of time.

Working backwards to your conclusion that I’m lying will make any sort of circumstance seem scummy, so you might as well put “I don’t believe you” at the front

Asking me to map out why scum choose to do what they do is pointless. We don’t have full scope of the board

Meanness is definitely not exclusive to town or scum (people can be fake or real indignant/mean) but I think the general good point you make is yeah, we should all be nicer in mafia in general, or make it feel not personal as best we can. I can be called an idiot in good fun.

My issue with taste has only been the targets he's chosen but otherwise, it's not still not the best idea to lunch a uncounterclaimed cop unless we're sure it's the best result. I don't think NGO was a terrible choice tonight (obviously) but I think people like merk or myself or whoever else has had a lot of eyes on them are good too.

Another thing, this game in particular feels like there's so many people that look weird each day. We have two joats existing, Hal claiming he saw me not visit someone, and an Ecco Cop with 3 people claimed where 1 came back "not night witch". I think the problem with leaving 3 people alive and not touching any of the Ecco Cop result people is scum aren't going to kill any of those people who have suspicion, why would they if we don't know their alignment? A 33% chance of getting the right person is better than .. whatever bad math I can do with how many people we have alive right now. That's just my thoughts on it. I'm generally against ONLY focusing on one group (we had the same conundrum with the mason stuff on D1) but we're deep into the game and it'll be a lingering problem imo.

And all that is considering we can trust Spoonsy, so this is already overwhelming.

##unvote. Out of those 3 I still like Hal but I'm not rushing towards anything yet.

This still seems like a weird argument to me. I know I'm a newbie, but please explain why. Because I thought actual cops as opposed to eccocops or rolecops were super rare in SA Mafia, and I thought that in SA Mafia claims are never countered because you know if you are given a fake claim it won't be countered?

I don't think this flavorable game has a vanilla cop and the fact that it hasn't been counterclaimed means nothing to me.

Because I haven't seen anything to indicate that it's not him submitting names anymore, and they're still being submitted, and nobody else has owned up to it.

Sorry, that was a result of me and time zones. I wanted to get this info out into the game before going to sleep.

For context - my original list was Merk, Yuming, and Sub. Then Yuming turns up dead and I felt better about Sub over the course of yesterday.

I kept Merk as I wasn't sure what he was really doing in this game as I've seen him aggressively case people left right and center as town and he wasn't doing that (though his reason for not being around today probably explains all of that and we probably shouldn't lunch him today just out of common courtesy? I don't know the rules for that.

For you, something just feels off about your posting style. I know a lot of it might have to do with time zone, but I wanted to check you out. I was really hoping that I'd come back with NIGHT WITCH for the three of you and I could report that we had a quarter of the town (third if you want to include me) that you could write as town votes.

And then there's Hal. Real talk - I included Hal as I wanted someone who wasn't part of the Tokes lunch (minus you), and the other two people I can confirm at least did in fact role block and send me an item. So that left Hal. I did not at that time guess that he would be/claim to be a second JOAT. And I'm not going to lie - I have a tough time believing there are two JOATs in a boat...er..game without one of them being scum.

I still don't like taste, and my DBD paranoia is receding. I'm not good on Hal either, but not enough to vote yet.

That being said, I really do feel it should be 1 of the 3. 33% odds are better than 8.33% odds (12 people left)
