Goodness gracious! And here I thought I was a regular ole' chatterbox, but you've all just been rattling away plenty while I've been away, huh? Now, all I'll say is that I dunno about some of this. It's been a hot second or two since I've played an actual game of Mafia, to put it one way, and it's my first game around here, so beg your pardon if I'm misinterpreting anything... On that note I did wanna slip into the conversation for a moment and ask for a slight bit of clarification to make sure I'm following along properly: with the concept of chain-lynching brought up, I assume via context that's the idea of a vote (duh) and then going off ('chaining') the results/flip against those who voted? I've looked around for the term a little but could only find it being used / not an exact definition, and it's not a term I'm exactly familiar with. Thanks!

sniper4625 posted:Get well soon Herocat. Lordy, no kidding! And on D1. Not that that's a bad thing by any means, mind you. To kinda pipe in with some actual slight content, thoughts so far: On Asiina/IP: I know we're a bit past it, but... with D1's being what they are, beyond all the joke posting and nonsense all you can really do is press a little and see what comes up. Why, look at all the conversation it ultimately led to! I can see the thought with regards to IP, but I just don't think I can see voting for IP for that alone - today, anyway. Definitely noted down and filed away thought. On the Bif/BK thing: ehhhhh. Put a gun or I guess a vote to my head... I'd have to lean a little more towards Bif(/voting for Beek, s'what I mean) but - and I say this and everything gelse without any outside knowledge on previous games or pre-read - it reads to me as perhaps a bit of an overzealous defense on re-reading the back and forth. More in a sec, I've got like four different tabs of the game open trying to catch up. On herocat: get well soon, brave friend!

sniper4625 posted:Is there an almanac of player game history/posting habits somewhere, because I just realized that people could probably say anything they like on that front and those without the same length of experience would believe them unless it's called out by other old timers. I would assume probably not. Always the danger for new timers, but I assume there'd be some leniency / understanding for not picking such up, naturally. Meta knowledge is what it is.

Ah hell forgot the deadline was so soon. Much as I prefer it, probably not going to be around the hour or so up to deadline for today. (Hooray for training new people!) still getting used to posting on mobile, definitely no going back to a flip that's for sure Will try to pitch in a bit more here shortly...

Bifauxnen posted:wait, so you think it's better to wait till tomorrow to pressure anyone? Why not do it now and see if anything happens? I think I have to agree here for the most part? A lot of my previous mafia experience more or less treated D1 throughout as a complete jokephase (often ending with no successful lynch per mod fiat... Yeah.) I think I like this a lot better. Yeah, it's a little rough but it still doesn't have to end in a lynch per se and pressuring even on D1 can provide info for later. Gonna have to be something to get used to, this much on D1 definitely caught me by surprise.

Max posted:I'm not kidding, click his link in the OP and look at how more than half his posts, many of them made well out of joke phase, don't have anything to really do with the game. Now I'm worried because I'm more or less the same so far. Again, I absolutely admit this was a bit more than I expected via D1. (Which, not a complaint, mind you! Just a recalibration on my side is the issue.) I am trying to play catch up a bit, again, but if any thoughts are requesting I should be here until deadline, now that I've finished up with training.

King Burgundy posted:Yeah no, obviously day should still progress to near it's normal length regardless so we can hear from everyone, etc. There are plenty of folks who haven't said much. Hi, hello! This is me. Again, apologies on D1, etc. So, I took a little bit of time to get properly caught up while the thread wasn't moving. Glancing over the vote over on IP (hopefully I won't mix up anyone else again, sheesh) - I was mostly curious regarding Gaspy. Vote number three on IP, middle of the pact but one of the votes that helped push IP more forward in the vote count. Also, Asphyxious posted:I didn’t really see pressure on IP and I think his reaction is a bit ott in the circumstances. Asphyxious posted:I’ve just reread illegallysober and I’m not seeing it, from peoples description I was expecting a bit of Dick Bastardly “clearly not reading the thread properly thought salad” kinda stuff but it wasn’t really there. The only thing that looks even kinda bad is asking for other cases, which just left me feeling kinda ehh. Which, both more toward IP's reaction, sure. But, no pressure on IP? Maybe, maybe. But you were also the first to react to IP's vote on TMM- Asphyxious posted:Hmmmmm. -which, that's not very much, no, especially as we were phasing out of jokephase at that point. Sure. You also sure seemed pretty eager to jump on IP's post potentially being a 'scumslip' once Asiina brought it up. Which, sure you weren't alone with, but the whole thing gives off faint vibes of scum trying to nudge the vote along. Not strong enough to place a vote, by any means, particularly with everything going on with beek, but I don't like it! natch i say all of this with the D1 i had so i fully expect some pot, kettle, etc.

TMMadman posted:Oh yeah, I also voted for choice B because Viva Pancho Villa! I hope it was the right choice!On that, a side note, probably not a terrible idea for people to mention their choice if nobody has any objections? It might not be anything significant at all, but it might be useful information for later. (Also if we wind up with a majority saying they chose A when we went B, well... )

TMMadman posted:Right now my 'the simplest explanation is the right one' side is warring with my paranoid 'this is too easy, there's gotta be a curveball' side. I hear you on that. It does feel a little too easy in a way? Asiina was very much in on beek (even saying that her vote on IP was in part because beek wasn't happening) - it's N1 of all things - with the watch happening to trigger / being used... But also sometimes the easiest explanations are correct.

So... was hesitating to ask, but especially as things have quieted a smidge, curious. Would anyone like to explain their case to IS or at least confirm that I've got the right of it, as I'm not sure if I have it? Seems to be around a few posts IS made, mostly:IllegallySober posted:Catch-up thoughts: and IllegallySober posted:Re-reading Hal he’s essentially a blank slate to me as far as any kind of strong opinions thus far. Yes? Perhaps my scumdar isn't necessarily the best but I dunno, I struggle to get a feeling of scuminess from this, I guess because it's mostly along the lines of things admittedly I'd have probably posted with a slightly more active D1. But I also get the argument that this is absolutely more background noise (easy to point people out as townie! v. scum) just, I dunno, to the point of having gotten up to 4 votes? Someone help me out a little, I guess. (Also, I think we're still waiting to hear from IS today, as well?)

All of that makes a lot of sense, yeah. Thanks, Mafia Dad!Max posted:My follow up to that would be: If you imagine yourself back on day 1 and IS isn't pinging you, who would you have rather been the lunch and why? Hmm. Thinking on this and going back to D1, with how I was feeling at the time and doing a reread, some thoughts and not necessarily in order: 0.) It's the easy answer, I know - and with what I just gave Gaspy a hot second ago - but probably IP. If not for the vote on TMM, then for the response once pressure was put on. 1.) Hal, partially for what I feel is a sin of skating on by a bit pot, kettle, yes while also going about : Hal Incandenza posted:I am here through deadline now, I will ##vote IS because bad posts are worse than no posts in my book Hal Incandenza posted:Well I mean they are all "bad" in the sense that you seem to have written up some summaries of people's posts, then randomly(?) picked me and MMT to call out and then said nothing of substance about us and then went back to posting summaries and just don't seem particularly invested in anything you say. Which, sure, but that strikes me as a little odd with virtually zero casework/reads themselves before or after? 2.) beek. Obviously a smidge late for that, but mostly a follow up to one of my few bits of actual content D1 that on beek v. bif, that's where I was leaning toward previously with beek's posting. 3.) Hum. Mostly a gut read, I think, I don't have anything in particular I can point at beyond that.

May be obvious question, and I'm assuming so, but just in case because of the wording: if someone searches, they'd be able to switch to assisting, yes?

hambeet posted:if mod gave you a gun right now who would you shoot? With the caveats of one - I assume we're excluding BK from this because, yeah - and two... assuming this is a 'gun to my head and gun in my hand' situation, because I'm not sure how strongly I feel on these, which is part of the problem-- Gaspy, I think. Partially for when and how the vote on IP, partially for the vote to assist MMT just a bit ago - while I hope MMT will be an alright candidate for receiving the one-shot, but I don't know if I like the end of discussion so suddenly, either. But also acknowledging that's pretty weak. That said... One of TMM or maybe Bif? So far I've generally been agreeing with some of the general points, but based on the vague lines of discussion, seeing a flip on either of them I think would be an interesting piece of the grander puzzle. also dumb newbie question, maybe, but: what does '3P' refer to? I've seen it mentioned around one or two places i think but i'm not sure i get it from the context?

So... four snoops/one investigator (five in total) - two inventors/item givers, a snitch with a second apparently around from last night, some sort of role-doubler? thrown in somewhere, and potentially some sort of nexus/driver/redirect of some sort, along with a potential blocker. Do I have that all right?King Burgundy posted:Feels like we could narrow things down significantly with some full claim action. But maybe it's still too early? Same on both marks here.

Went back through the thread checking my notes on yours and yeah, other than that only thing I can think of would be noting MMT getting the item D2, which was apparently the Singed Lasso/single-shot roleblock. And I guess Max's notes of item/other action last night. Something is definitely off with the snoops. Don't think it's impossible we have a handful, but a total of five? (At least!) Anyone else wanna raise their hand and claim a cop at this point? Would love to hear a bit more from you sniper once you're available.

Since we're doin' this... I'm the Gossip, funnily enough, with the ability to pull people into a - unconfirmed - masonry. So far I've pulled Bif (N1) and Max (N2) along into our snug little gossip circle without any issues or failures. That's... pretty much it for me. So, if I have my notes correctly, for those still alive: Asphyxious: Gadgeteer Bifauxnen: Adapter (claimed in masonry, provided blessing to provide information) Hal Incandenza: Bodyguard hambeet: Snoop IllegallySober: Inventor? King Burgundy: Motivator Max: Snoop Mr. Humalong -> Xad: ??? Murmur Twin: Snoop sniper4625: ??? Social Studies 3rd Period: Gossip TMMadman: ???

Murmur Twin posted:I am a migrant-aligned Vanilla {Snoop} who started with two shine. I'm legit not sure what to say or really how to defend against this - really, with this information voting me is probably the right move, but well. I know from my role information that I'm the Vanilla Gossip, and would absolutely be happy to submit to the lie detector test for it, because I know what I am. Unless I'm somehow insane or secretly 3P without knowing it, I guess? I have one last invitation to send to the masonry, and I'd be happy to send it to whoever. I will say this, and again, noting I lack any sort of meta knowledge or context, but: it seems a little odd to me that in a game with a supposedly five - five! - cop roles, a couple of inventors, and so on, one of the powers the scum would get would be to... invite people into a masonry? (And I hope the masonry I create is at least accepted as real, with both Max and Bif confirming - d'be a hell of a scum ploy, I guess.) No, I think it's much more likely from my perspective some of our cops are insane or not telling the truth entirely. As such, futile as it may be, I'm gonna ##vote MMT mostly out of self-defense at the moment, but we'll see.

Asphyxious posted:When asked who they would vote for, they offer up me, TMM and... Bif. I must stress that a.) the masonry is unconfirmed. b.) Taking my words sliiighly out of context here, aren't you? I said TMM or Bif, as one or the other would probably provide us some information based on their flips / everything else that went on, which, surprise, I still stand by! (Which was also before the BK flip when we were operating on the assumption BK was probably scum.) fwiw, I chose Bif N1 for generating a fair bit of the discussion on D1, a gut read and a lot of the argument with BK that made sense. (No idea how hard I was hoping BK to flip scum there to clear my mason buddy.) Max N2 for being such an active driver of discussion all over the place in a way that did not read scum to me at all.
