You went from random postings and pushing a Jimson case once we were close to lynch D1, to posing questions and trying to analyse the game D2.

In all seriousness, what in the hell would make you say something like that? In this game, which represents 100% of your Mafia experience I believe? the big tryhard was Ganny who was town, and all of the scum were non-effort lurkers. There's absolutely no way that based on your experience you would make a statement like the above if you were being honest. So you're almost certainly scum too.

Also I'm unemployed and really excited about being new to mafia so I have the time and interest in tryharding.

Scum would be unlikely to hammer one of their own D1

Infinitum posted:

I personally still don't see the SSV vote, but the fact there was no hammer will make him appear to be the most logical target to lynch.
Even though we didnt lynch anyone, we still got a little information in that no one hammered SSV, which, in isolation, is a better reason to vote for someone than the analysis before.

The Mayor, Birdstrike, Prop, tpink, Hal, and SSV didnt hammer.

I trust Hal the most, and I understand why SSV didnt vote. The mayor seems okay to me, as is.

Tpink seems fishy and Birb even more so.

Where did you come from, and where did you go? Is that your only feeling so far? You've posted only in the jokeish-vote phase and this, which is almost less than nothing.

I dont have strong feeling for most. I think Kas, AA and Infinitum are good so far, and I'm totally null on Jimson but I really dont like the votes for him atm. AR is with Birb in fishiness to me.

Im mostly wondering, why is Jimson at -2?

AA posted an early day analysis of the votes and why he's voting Jimson, which reads as good to me:

Anomalous Amalgam, early on posted:

I don't know if there are better candidates, but the lack of turn out for deadline is a bit rough on town. Scum are just going to keep picking us off at night unless we get some cases out there.

Interaction wise, I don't like Tpink's posting during D1 and this quick vote today rubs me the wrong way as well.

...but more than that, I don't like how the votes on Jimson came about and disappeared leading to a stalled vote on SSV.

##vote Jimson

Jimson posts empty gut suspicion about SSV and Birb

Jimson posted:

I have a strong gut feel about SSV if you trust me on this we might have a clean run if he flips scum. Because invariably the next domino id wanna tip would be birb

Which instantly gets Birb to vote, and Prop to step out of nowhere for a third vote

Birdstrike posted:

chain lynches...

are bad

##vote Jimson

SSV and AR hop onto the wagon because 'jimson's weird'

SirSamVimes posted:

Because Jimson's posting has been weird and off. Infinitum's just a gut read.

In addition to trying to extend jokephase on D1 well after it was over, Jimson advocated a chain-lynch which is an easy way for scum to string mislynches together. Scummy as gently caress.

AR jumped late onto Jimson's day one bandwagon. After that fell apart he distanced himself by claiming he really didnt want Jimson to be lynched

Absurd Revolver, about his D1 Jimson vote posted:

I was hoping I hadn't accidentally lured Jimson to an early grave with a misleading D1 post.

##unvote

tentative8e8op posted:

I dont understand what you're saying, please walk me through it. You were Jimson's fourth vote, but you were hoping no one else would vote for him at all, or what?

You are not voicing your thoughts on anyone who voted Jimson after you, and you're putting your vote on no one now that everyone's leaving him. Did you join a group, voting someone you didnt want to see lynched, simply to vote?

Absurd Revolver posted:

It was because it was a joke vote in the first place. I have no real reason to think Jimson is scum right now, but watching him hit 5 votes was pretty funny.

Now that we have actual options, I'm keeping them open. After my last mafia game I'm wary of early lynches.

AR then jumps late onto SSV, a good thing so late in the day, buuut

Absurd Revolver posted:

I'm gonna feel dumb for trusting Jimson if I accidentally kill SSV as town again, but what the hell, live fast, die scum(leave a beautiful corpse).

No I honestly forgot why. I guess he said some weird stuff? But so has Jimson. Mostly I just want a vote to go through this time, I guess?

This isn't an act, I'm really this clueless. If you can give me a compelling read on someone I'm likely to flip again.

This has to be you just playing dumb, but I'll answer it for the others so they know how shady you are.

If you're town and have to choose between self-hammer and no-lynch, self-hammer is better. It gives us all information on your alignment, which helps settle disputes (it would pretty much settle the one between myself and Infinitum right now) and discern the alignment of who cased and voted against you. And obviously it's pro-town to lynch. If you don't lynch anyone, town loses. We're basically starting this game down a town now, with only 2 extras days of discussion to show for it.

And obviously you could be scum, which is by far the most likely reason you didn't self-hammer at the deadline.

I'm not convinced that people wagoning is a good reason to lynch them. There's 5 people on that wagon. At least 2 are town, probably 3 or 4, possibly all of them. There are better candidates in this game.

You said you think Infinitum and I are both town. Can you explain why? I cased him pretty clearly.

The current wagon is the only thing Propaganda machine has done. She's absent for late D1, but has been reading the thread enough to throw her only non-jokephase post onto a forming bandwagon just an hour after Birdstrike's Jimson vote.

Jimson has pointed at SSV, and Birb is defending and going anti-Jimson, and Prop is joining on. SSV-defending posts are VERY interesting to me right now, due to the failed lynch, and the way Jimson's current bandwagon got to H-2 out of nothing worries me.

Both you and Infinitum seem to be digging into eachother. You're seeming to focus too tightly and he's not posting as much as I'd like, but I dont have bad vibes from either of you as-is. Both of your postings, focus's and actions seem null to town to me.

I've cased SSV, Jimson, Infinitum, and Glowku. Infinitum has ignored everybody except for me. Please explain how the gently caress I'M the one focusing too tightly. And how the gently caress has he done anything pro-town? Literally all of his non-joke posts are ridiculing me for saying "scum" or saying he's certain that SSV is town without any justification.

Only quoting this one, but re: your other points:

I didn't hammer because I was bad and missed deadline. Sorry about that.

I'm hanging back for now because I haven't gotten clear reads on anyone. A vote for jimson based on a chain lynch is responding to anti-town behavior and as good as anything at this point. Also, I got killed in my last game for posting too much on a vague hunch. There's definitely stuff to read from the last couple pages though. I'd like to give it a reread or two.

I'm actually tempted to vote for you not out of spite, but because your case sucks. Besides, not posting enough would get me modkilled. Why wouldn't you put a vote against someone with momentum? It's really, really important that we pull off the lynch today, and the day would be a waste if you get rid of someone who hasn't given a good amount of content to pick through later.
