This doesn't feel like scumCube from Illu's machinegun vig game. If he's faking his interaction in the masonry he's doing a really drat good job.

redneck nazgul posted:That's what heels are for. I confirmed with Somber first that if I targeted an invalid target in the day for masonizing, I'd be allowed to try again. I then targeted Cube for masonizing and he was a valid target to set up a masonry with. Then we chatted until he went to bed, with potential for more chat for the rest of the day phase.

I’m glad nobody died. 10 posts over two game days and this is as close as Sparkly ever gets to anything in the same continent as a read. I still have problems with FoS and whether he's clear or not is going to depend heavily on the exact nature of Sparkly's flip, but he's volunteered genuine reads and info which is leaps and bounds over Sparkly. In combo with the belated but unvarnished town read on Cube's approach in the masonry, I think Sparkly is the scum hit. ##vote Sparkly

Cube didn’t even properly flip, so yeah I fail to see what exactly has incriminated me. If I were you I’d wait to turbo me until the rest of the thread wakes up and chimes in. If you wanna test me out, tonight I’ll drop my visitor’s list. Hell, I would have done it last night had I somehow known Cube wasn’t gonna turn up scum.

It's process of elimination + a flip in my read of Cube + the circumstances of the eccocop + ultimately deciding FoS is the less likely player to have played the way he did as scum. More than that, you have 0 content to read; you're practically a ghost and that's scum 101 play. I don't care if the thread turbos you or not, I'm voting where my reads have led me and making the best case for the vote I can. Proving yourself mechanically isn't going to do squat about the fact that I defy anyone to claim you've put a single drop of serious effort into playing and thinking about the game. That's scummy, plain and simple.

Either way, even if cube isn't town, that does nothing to clear sparkly, posting trumps night results in most cases.

I'm not sure if you've played Mafia much outside of the one game I see in your history, but I do see you weren't very present there either as town. That's liable to make this harder - however, the way to address it is to try and talk about your answer/s to the most basic question of Mafia: who scum? You've coasted on "well it's not me, it must be one of the other two people in the result", but if you're town, you must have some ideas on who you'd point at as looking fishy. Talk about it, even if you don't know if you're gonna be convincing or not.

Hal Incandenza posted:I think this is a fair assesment, although I wish I had whatever insight into cube you have. I masoned Cube today partly to test his stumpiness and partly in a fit of pique over the conniptions I'm having between you and FoS. He came off as townier than both of you which impressed me mightily. I don't know what the hell's up with him being a valid target for that, but he doesn't seem to know either, and with him being a breath of fresh air read-wise I can't be bothered to care a lot.

I would still read Cube as the scum in this situation. While it’s true that I haven’t played much forums mafia, I’m familiar enough with variants on it that I know getting your role cleaned upon death is a scum move. That way we don’t know what role they lost, and it directs further suspicion to me when we’re already bleeding townies.

Cube can't vote or be voted anymore, outside that changing, he's not a factor. Who else is scum?

Like if you take the janitoring of his flip by a partner as a given, the next question is: who's likely to be his partner?

i definitely wouldnt mind an emsparkly or redneck nazgul vote, im vibing with toals reading of her posting

I think it’s more likely than not that cube’s own role janitored them, rather than a janitor scum partner, given the confirmed stumpification. Despite iggy’s read I’m inclined to assume a non-town cube honestly. I don’t see the claimed PGO role alongside the janitor/stump clause as a town role. Honestly Hal’s claimed death activated effect looks worse in a post cube word imo.

Well for a hot minute I could have said you, but your willingness to work with me here has me convinced your inquisitiveness is genuine. I was skeptical of Fool, I thought that their claim made in reaction to mine was sus, but their play beyond that seems clean. I now agree with their reasoning against Hal. Their claim felt like a flimsy way to keep the heat off from the start.

Despite iggy’s read I’m inclined to assume a non-town cube honestly. I don’t see the claimed PGO role alongside the janitor/stump clause as a town role. I'll outright claim, it doesn't make any difference. I am a bodyguard/pinata. I have 4 items, on my death those will be either given to people I have named, or, if they are dead, will be put up for grabs in the thread One item was slated for Zoya, so that one would become public on my death, the other three would go to the people I have them slotted for. In typical somber fashion, they are cleverly a coin, triangle, square and pentagram, and each item requires the receiver to select a set number of people that the power will work on/affect/whatever, and those are related to the number of sides for the item. One of the items is a PGO where you can select how many people it will work on, which is what I thought Cube was probably getting at with his PGO claim but it seems that was not the case. The others are a type of watch, a sort of jail, and a sort of protection N1 I Bodyguarded meen so he would be able to mason me, and last night I chose to set the receipients for my items rather than BG anyone (can't do both in one night)

Hal Incandenza posted:I'll outright claim, it doesn't make any difference. I am a bodyguard/pinata. Ignoring the decision of Iggy over MBox, let's say that you successfully BG'd Iggy N1 and died. Then since you didn't prep your items, they all disappear? So why both BG'ing N1? This role broadly feels really backwards in that this sort of role, you'd kinda want to hand out the items first and then BG the player with the best item and/or your towniest read to ensure that they get a chance to actually use their thing.

I also explained this to Iggy so I don't know why he didn't pass it along I thought I could do both, I had submitted to somber to BG and said I would think about setting the gifts, Somber then chimed in a bit later to say it was one or the other. I told him to hold off on the BG while I figured that out, but I got very busy and then the night was ending and I still hadn't looked back at the thread (and tbh I didn't have many town reads yet anyway) and said just go with the BG And as I said, the items just get dumped into the thread if they are unassigned or assigned to a dead person, so they weren't going to disappear or anything
