Mafia 126 - Basically Basic

[CerealLord]

Cereal, if you had voted for me, I would have been lynched.

If I was scum, this play would have made absolutely no sense. Why would I drive myself up to L-1 on a majority lynch betting that literally no one else would vote me? I even asked you to hammer me.

My vote was on you. Post #615. But I see your point. I had messed up my counting and thought you were L-2. Not sure why I thought majority was 11 and not 10.

You would have been lynched if Xanjori unvoted first.

[CerealLord]

The other guy removed by SK is understandable, from what I recall, Cereal was his suspect

Cereal as SK I'm not sure, I won't jump yet to this conclusion, but rather keep it as a possibility

If I were SK, I would not have eliminated the person who called me suspicious directly before night began.That just sounds like a terrible play.

[CerealLord]

That just seems like scum wanting to throw suspicions on me. I may be new but I have some logic

so you think they removed him to make you a possible suspect for today?

I mean you can say that, and everyone says that. But if that's always what is said, removing the person that called you out is in fact the best play. It's gotta be better than the person being alive and arguing against you right?

[CerealLord]

It’s a possibility. Not anything I’d bank on the reasoning. Fire is an analytical player. He may always be wrong according to his W/L rate, but no one can deny he can analyze.

[Clarinet]

I can see that happening..HOWEVER some evils are bold enough to get rid of someone triggering them

esp. SK who needs to be a refined craftsman to survive

anyway, I'm not suspecting you, but keeping in mind that people do have guts to remove criticism as quickly as possible

First am I the only one seeing Cereal have 3 posts in a row but not be added to the first post on this page? Secondly, this was the train on Val at end of day
Lora #369 , Crackleslap #427 , Bwomsamdi #547 , Dupti #560 , Cereal #615 , Val #645 , Clarinet #647 , SatsuBL #649 , Graeham #650

Neither of our dead voted Val at all. My general thought is scum dislike being early on a train so I am putting Lora, Crackle, Bwon as leaning town for now. I find scum like to hide in the latter parts of a vote train, especially if it was a mafia member, since Val isn't actually dead yet so that would make Clarinet, Satsu, and Graeham as my most sus from the list. Also depending on Val's alignment whenever we find it out (I'm leaning town right now due to the play but yeah) the people who were around but did not vote should also be scrutinized. Which I know I am one of those but in my defense I was at work and got a late break so I had 0 chances to check thread at work until day already ended.

I kinda 'secretly' want for Satsu to be SK, he just say that aura

I wish people would move on from Val 'wanting to eat' people. It would be a wrong move to continue on suspecting Val this day

Yesterday we had town vs town wagons.

I get that logic and the suspicion. I would be suspicious if literally anyone else was in the same boat. But if I were scum, that’s exactly what I would have done. Doesn’t matter if the person is alive or dead. It puts out the idea and ideas and take hold and spread.

Putting that kind of heat on my back is not a risk I’d take.

[Clarinet]

'has' that aura, typo for my Satsu opinion

[CerealLord]

It’s because I’ve been using Tapatalk. It makes 3 posts instead of merges them apparently. I’ll just use the browser to stop that from happening.

Here's the thing, we don't know if it was town v town. I agree that I think Val is more than likely town but I still don't have much of a read on Marack but there's no way yo can say we had "town vs town wagons" without at least 1 of them dead.

[Clarinet]

I think him being grumpy was a real emotion unless people have a different experience with him and he actually fakes drama as scum

[Val the Moofia Boss]

People have had mood swings in these games where they go "I hate you all, I hate this game" but they always calm down.

[Lora]

Doesn't make sense to me. I even forgot there is a Catta in this game with so many players

I honestly was expecting them removing Satsu

things are about to get interesting, I might be a bit inactive 1st part of this day phase

I'm coming back later but

This was how I ended D1

Town: Grae, dupti, Val
Slightly town: Cereal, Satsu

Likeable but not sure of alig: Bageloaf

Sus: Cslap, Bfox, Lora, Listo



No solid opinion on others

- - - Updated - - -

Val impressed me with his selfless act, he's a main town after last phase

Satsu was kinda townish in his interaction with me and others

Prey tell your lack of logic for me being sus? These whole reads are pointless if you don't use reasoning

- - - Updated - - -

Sucks that we got no info from no lynching yesterday. The nights actions were gonna happen. But we would at the very least have something to go off of. Now it's day 1.5.

[listo95]

Also I'm now heading to work so I can try but no promises to see anything occurring in the thread on my breaks.

nah nah, you pulled this last game and would still be quite around whenever you were called out :P

[dupti]

The fact that Val did not get lynched after asking to get lynched is odd. It's obviously a possibility that he is mafia and his partners then did not want to bus (or town were just not around near the deadline) in which case he could have perhaps have seen Marack get away wtih it and wanted to do a similar gambit because he thought he would get lynched seeing as he was the top wagon, but it seems like a rather silly gambit to take and not one I am really convinced Val would do.
Another possibility is that he is town and that scum perhaps wanted to avoid the wagon for some ez town cred or I don't know, going to be a WIFOM fest. Probably fair to assume at least 1 scum on the wagon though.
It could obviously be a weird ass SK play as well but meh.

I must say it kind of bothers me he did not get lynched though. He should have been lynched if not for the info itself but the fact that he asked to get lynched and so on should merit him a policy lynch at that point as we can not afford to let people get away with stupid stuff like that. Same reason bagel got lynched last game, he claimed wolf and then later he seemed to question in the dead thread why people did not look at his wagon but you need to understand that as soon as you do stuff like that the votes on you become meaningless as it is too easy to justify a vote on something like that

The kills are a bit interesting and I'll get back to that later but need to see something first though

i dont really care about the read on me, but would you mind elaborating on the other reads?

Grae as town's HOLY man

on a serious note: Grae has been very light and breezy when posting, never felt forced in anything, kept his emotions under control in arguments, even his drawings are minimalistic not trying to impress anyone but just having fun, there's no sweat on his forehead thus I perceive him town

Val, I've mentioned him causing me a bit of frustration because of his tight lip and refusing to engage more in depth, but that EOD proved to me he's part of town, not caring so much about his own life, I still think he should have DEFENDED himself but anyway

Cereal, I'm not sure tbh, I think there's standard logic with most of his posts, it's a slight townlean, but I might have to look into him again

Satsu is based on his quality content and a few takes on that emotional spat between players yesterday

Bageloaf has a townie vibe, that's about it but I'm not THAT certain

Cslap, I really disliked how he had a serious tone on fluff subjects, that's how he started the game, he was serious about the wrong things, not the 'meat' of this game aka finding the baddies

Bfox has some sort of a sly charisma in all of his posts that indicates untrustworthiness

Lora and Listo - I've been influenced by someone posting their meta. They mentioned that these 2 players act the same when town and scum, so it's practically impossible to know their real alignment this game

if Val is mafia, I'm entirely shocked
What he did EOD1 was a high risk- high reward move

but I think he's town after all

Hope to hear more from those that didn't post much D1

will be back in a day
