Yeah, this isn't exactly a time for "pot shots". Although I do agree we should be targeting some of the quiet people, it's hard to say which ones. I think first, we should take care of the business we should have taken care of 2 days ago.

##vote anidav

We should rake in whatever data we can before can before someone gets hammered though... haha, what am I even worried about?

Bifauxnen, you were a late entry on the day two vote. Are you keen to finish what you started? Capitalising on my day two mistake just like you and your team did to tithin's mistakes on day three?

Aiming for easy targets sounds like a good plan to get that votes required to lynch threshold down, doesn't it?

Where is your friend hooman? where is Small Keating? where is TOML? Why aren't you waiting for bowmore like yesterday?

On day 1 Mills was an easy target
On day 2 I hosed up and was an easy target but I lived due to new years thank god
On day 3 tithin drew suspicion and became an easy target

Going for easy targets has only resulted is dead towns, team silent goes on unpunished. Voting for me is the easy way out of this mess and the fact that it's happening so early in the day only means scum are trying to rush the momentum early once more.

The timing hardly matters, people are going to trickle in whenever. I don't need to wait for bowmore to show up to vote the exact same way I was trying to before. If by some remote chance people start swarming in to actually hammer you before anyone can talk, that'll be pretty damning evidence against them anyway.

I'm up for other quiet targets too, I can change my vote if needed. But I just want to make clear, we still have one real good option on the table to go with.

So what were you doing yesterday? Should I have just laid back and said "well okay, go ahead and lynch me then without me bothering to say why you shouldn't"? Why did you vote for Tithin then? Oh, cause you didn't want people to vote for you either.

This is hosed. I'm most suss on Anidav (always have been due to his changing excuses d2) and Small Keating (due to the worst ever role claim) right now. We have time, however, and I'd like to hear bowmore and Freudian slips opinion. TOML too.

Predominately silent people are getting off scot-free and the only people who are dying are those who are actually posting in this thread.

Team Silent is killing the conversation without saying a word and the strange mistake Small Keating made before is suspicious, as if trying to ride the coattails of Splode's mistake. Now that Splode is dead and Small Keating hasn't come back with any new information, I am confident that near-silent people like Small Keating are involved.

Uh no, beet lead the charge against tithin. I never asked him to come on the attack to defend me any more than I asked bowmore to come defend me.

He had a bad case, that's why beet and bowmore both came out swinging since it seemed like he was just derailing everything. If he'd had a more convincing case, maybe someone else besides you would have jumped on. I think this is more over-reaching to frame me, like you were doing yesterday with your trying to call me out over an obvious Ludlam joke, which somehow relied on me having the exact same role as Mills.

##vote thatbastardken

I think you and Anidav are both scum, you're probably the more dangerous one, though. You've been checking in but keeping quiet and not acting much to help while Anidav hogs all the attention. Weren't you going to get in on the Tithin vote too just to get someone lynched at all last night? That never came through, did it? Or did you just not want to get your name involved cause you knew for sure he was town... what with him not being on your scumteam.

is anidav scum? I'll let you decide...

i'll take my certainty of it to the grave if i have to. i'm not sure about bif, i think they might just be wanting to lynch people (which is fair because we gave the scum a two day lead), but anidav is absolutely obvious. keating is up there, too, due to the roleclaim and might be looking to get on my early bandwagon. much like bifauxnen, actually.

there is a lot of focus on anidav. if we kill him, then we get a lot of information to think about. but :tenbux: gets you that he's scum and, if we get anidav, we get the rest of them.

There's nothing to answer.

There was insufficient people to pass the vote for him, therefore he wasn't lynched.

I do like how you and bif are both pushing really hard to get back to Anidav as scum, without actually addressing any of the concerns I raised in my post.

Nice way to tie yourselves together.

this tithin post was in response to beet.

I'm more sure about bif that I am bout beet though.

unfortunately I burned the one shot cop ability I had on mills the night he was killed so I can't do anything more to confirm my analysis.

in case anyone's wondering he read as town, so he wasn't some kind of reverse death bullshit.

Curses! Foiled again!


Yeah, as I always say I want to make sure lynches actually happen, so I can change back to anidav if you're not budging. I now think both of them are scum. I think people need to take a solid look at TBK, though. He wasn't just spaced out and hungover and completely absent like others were. He seems to have been very purposely holding back.

D1: He checked in and purposely said he wasn't voting. This isn't bad in itself, since Tithin also chose that purposely. But it shows he was here and paying attention. What happened then on D2?

thatbastardken posted:

yeah never assume malice when incompetence is an adequate explanation.

thatbastardken posted:

If we hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominoes should fall like a house of cards. Checkmate.

thatbastardken posted:

I think that one shot powers might be the order of the day here, actually. It would fit with the whole greens thing - limited funding, conservation, that sort of thing.

On D2 he still checked in and was weighing in on the mistakes already made, and on the nature of what roles we may have. But did he stick around to get anybody lynched? No. Did he explain why or say why he wasn't voting again? No. Did he even say he was part of the hangover crowd? No. What happened there?

He showed up again on D3 though, posting a lot to start getting all serious and back up Tithin's case, without ever explaining why he thought Anidav's case was shut.

thatbastardken posted:

you said that you wanted ludlam (bowmore) to make the kill on you (not hooman, sorry, bad syntax). if you have some kind of vengeful power that would kill a confirmed townie

Over-reaching and making up something that doesn't even make sense to try and "prove" I'm gunning for bowmore

thatbastardken posted:

I don't want to vote for tithin, that said I will if we get close enough because we need to get some kind of result.

Claims he's willing to join the tithin bandwagon just to get a lynch, so what was so bad about wanting to get an Anidav lynch? But guess what, he never showed up for that either. Once again, he bails and comes back to wreak havoc the following morning.

I'm pretty confident now on bif being scummy.

#1 - came out to bat pretty strongly to defend hooman, when people started to question him. They're either in a Masonry, or scum.

#2 - isn't actively scum hunting - lots of idle chatter

#3 - lots of pushes to get people to vote, and congratulatory posts when people do.

#4 - attempted hammer on Anidav to get the last minute push on him through.


#4 is weak admittedly, but the posting history is there. Lots of talk with little content, and pushing to votes with little investigation makes me pretty confident on

i am willing to entertain the idea that bifauxnen is scum based on the arguments i've seen, but i'm far, far more sure that anidav is.

or are we forgetting that in the previous mafia games i've been in i've been really, really good at sniffing out the scum players? trust me when i say that all of my instincts are saying if we lynch anidav we'll get a definite scum kill, which we can then afford to waste a probable one on bifauxnen the next day.

Yes I think bif is covering for team silent and Small Keating is apart of it. The question is simply what order they get lynched in. My instincts say bif is just vanilla scum so she's a low-risk talker for team silent since if she dies, no power roles are lost. If Small Keating is a scum with a power role then taking him or someone else suspiciously silent might net town a much needed power role kill.

It's a bad thing because we wouldn't have actually had any lynch at all if we hadn't had the extended deadline to save us when the last vote was running late. Which no one else seemed to even be paying attention to but me. It could have been 3 days with no day action or results. And it's just more evidence of you checking in only juuuust enough to look like you're not one of the silent ones not contributing.

Anyway, I'll just leave my vote on you until we get enough talk done later in the day. Consider me ready and willing to swing to either Anidav or Small Keating as needed.

man, i want to. but i'm so certain on anidav and i can't shake that bif plays how i play - lynch early, lynch often. at this time, i'd rather take my chances on someone who i wholeheartedly believe in scum as opposed to someone who we might get wrong.

i'm keeping my vote where it is. and i'm hoping that we get a scum kill today - anidav or otherwise. i don't agree that he's toothless outside of the night. he can still swing lynches and hammer people and generally act as an obvious, distracting smokescreen.
