Open 882: Over-Easy Mafia [Game Over]

[Garlic Bread Society]

Aureal replaces Merlyn.

[Klazam]

Ugh. I’m not moving my vote. I can see replacing out here being either alignment, but I hope that it’s RL related not game related. Don’t like it when the game is affected like this.

[RCEnigma]

Aureal replaces Merlyn.

Reunited and it feels so gooood

[Flower]

Aureal solve the game for us

[Alianna]

Aureal replaces Merlyn.

Aureal repping in is another reason to townread this slot.

[T-Bone]

Aureal and I are masons.

[Save The Dragons]

Why are you saying this?

It's a joke, Aureal keeps rolling town

Gotta take away some points from Klazam for missing an obvious joke

[Klazam]

No! My points!

[Aureal]

Aureal solve the game for us

What

Didn't T-Bone already do that? Is this a trick?

T-Bone, tell me whether you think this is a trick in the mason PT that we conjured up through sheer force of will. Because I wanna say RCE/ Klazam but it would be rude to step on your toes when you've already solved.

Anyway I am geriatric so I need to take my meds and maybe even try to read past page five. Maybe I'll even not go to sleep trying this time!

VOTE: Klazam

[T-Bone]

I mean why that solve specifically?

[Aureal]

Whee, page eight brought the fun!

Also what's this?

Well tbf. I probably would have just hammered klazam and figured it out tomorrow. Think there was one more person that was active around the time and opted not to hammer so townpoint to them.

But maybe that makes klazam my partner actually… or that person could have been klazams partner.

Actually now that I’m on the topic I dunno why we’ve kinda blown past it and none of the voters followed up on what I would assume was a pressure wagon out of rvs.

Is this... Am I detecting an attempt to distance by claiming that RCE

would've

just hammered there for the heck of it, now that this is a safe thing to push since townies have been distracted with shiny town wagons? Why yes, I believe it is! It's so self conscious of that way in which RCE both made a flippant comment acting like hammering Klazam there was actually a good option (y'know, in case T-Bone actually does) and then immediately they start working to discredit the push.

Seriously, this whole "oh I think I'm going to be hammered" from Klazam around page five comes off as pretty fake. I don't see Not_Mafia here, the odds of a page five hammer not even 48 hours into the game over some vague suspicion are not high. It feels excessively worried like scum would likely feel here, knowing that they are scum and having that increase the feeling of pressure.

And the pushback on Merlyn's lack of vote likewise is not towny at all, in contrast to RCE's attempt to portray it as such. It comes off as an attempt to

look

unconcerned with the votes on him, but why should Klazam be so focused on a lack of voting him when there was already a large wagon on him? "Why

aren't

people voting me?" doesn't seem like the line of thought a townie is likely to have here, it seems like a way to discredit someone else and look like you're selflessly scum hunting. Merlyn hadn't expressed nearly enough suspicion to warrant such an early hammer; if she'd voted in the post he took issue with that would've been e-1 and shortly thereafter a hammer. See my sig for supporting material on the concept of people not wanting wagons hammered early.

I'll get caught up on the most recent pages later.

[Flower]

T-Bone do you think Drew is town in a world where both of us are town?

[Doctor Drew]

Is it just me or does this feel like Aureal try harding a bit? Like repp into a scum read slot and just come out throwing punches.

Town tend to give slots like that a long rope, when maybe they shouldn't.

Maybe I am just not picking up what she is putting down.

[Flower]

Drew's been consistently making a lot of sense this game, I'm not used to this

[Doctor Drew]

Pardon me, my pocket is no vacancy.

But I mean, I wasn't even really scum reading Merlyn....but I am not crazy about Aureal's entrance right?

[T-Bone]

T-Bone do you think Drew is town in a world where both of us are town?

Memes about hero solves aside my reads on players are mostly independent of one another with some caveats. I'm not preflipping anyone. Drew being town or not doesn't have anything to do with your alignment or vise versa, that's not how town reads work. You're only linked if one of you flips scum.

[T-Bone]

Aureal I think RCE and Klazam are basically the same player this game. I find it difficult to see them paired together.

[Aureal]

Drew's been consistently making a lot of sense this game, I'm not used to this

I'm gonna assume that this means you think Drew's post there made sense. Because it didn't, and that's been how you've acted this whole game.

Like really, what is this thought process of Drew's? Player replaces into game, sees their slot and another are the top wagons, reads some of game and comes up with different scumreads and figures the other wagon is town and so... A townie does what, exactly, here? Sit down to enjoy some tea and crumpets?

[yessiree]

Hi Aureal, nice sliding entrance, 8/10

make sure you don't break any bones tho

[Aureal]

Aureal I think RCE and Klazam are basically the same player this game. I find it difficult to see them paired together.

I just finished reading up, and kinda see what you mean about them being the same person.

I don't think this makes it

that

unlikely for them to be scum together. The RCE post I quoted earlier sounds like an acknowledgement of them being linked, like he wanted to get out ahead of anyone potentially accusing them of being partnered. So after that point they may as well play openly working together.

Though honestly with the way Drew is being here he's just increasing his partner equity with Klazam. But shhhhhhh that's not what I'm focusing on here!

[Alianna]

Ugh, I have to read now. Sometimes I wonder why I play this game.

I don't think I even comprehend the last few pages yet. Brain fried.
