Speed Mafia (Game Over, who won?)

[Magister Ludi]

Vote : Kanyeknowsbest

The first post masquerades as a joke read but appears to be a serious read, yet his second post does nothing to attempt to back it up or explain his reasoning. Instead of trying to convince the town of his stance, he elects for inaction.

Evilpacman attempts to drive a wedge between the Goofball hydra and juls for no apparent reason. Seriously, the job of town is to try and firgure out eachothers alignment, and once done, form up together and bounce reads off eachother, which is especially important in a limited hours day. This line of thinking doesn't appear to come from town.

Also thread, we have up to 96 hours for a single day, which is more than enough, there is no need for intentionally posting incoherence in an attempt to simply post.

I am on the west coast of the us.

This intial nugget by cobbler is terrible "think Kanye, Evilpacman, and CrimpingNoofball are town." considering kayne has admitted himself to being absolutely useless and not doing much of anything, so I fail to see where the town read comes from.

This statement reads as throwing a bunch of names out there and hoping one or more stick in people's minds as town, which helps reinforce a positive image of the entire group, which is a fairly comment tactic to make the poster himself look townish (as hey, some people here are doing town things!!) and bolster standing of any potential buddies.

Then of note is populartajos 258 in which he briefly votes cobble and paints him in a bad light (I assume cobble he later clarified he wansn't voting himself), but the sprints away and doesn't pursue this line of reasoning to join the katsuki wagon. I'd be happy to lay a vote down here as well.

[Magister Ludi]

Tajo needs rope.

"when did I ever vote cobble?"

Post 9 of yours you quoted two posts of cobble, commented then voted yourself instead of cobble.

"in other news, I think I can live with katsuki = non optymal lynch today, despite I think the claim is fake and her posts are terrible.

im fine with the following people dying: cobblerfane, katsuki"

Wiffle waffle alert.

"townz
7) kanyeknowsbest - who the hell admits he cant be read as town?"

This whole list is a joke but this read is particularly bad.

"the joke is a nervous scumtell, im damn sure about this.
Unvote vote: cobblerfane."

So in the same post you say you never vote cobble... you vote cobble.

Is no one seeing kanye scum still?

[Magister Ludi]

Massive general reads in multiple players aren't as effective as pointed critisicm of those that need lynching.

Where you implying you wanted comment about your lynch?

[Magister Ludi]

Unvote

Vote : Haylen

This is a good alternative to kayne wagon, though I would also happily move to tajo. Tajo doesn't appear to be getting much steam at all from this town however.

[Magister Ludi]

Actually, who's interested in a tajo wagon?

Vote: Benmage

This is where votes need to go. Only Katsuki has defined this man in this game so far, and thats not a good thing. His play is not a pointed town-sided tunneling. First he votes her, calls for more votes, hops off the wagon calling for its end, reinserts himself on the wagon in the next post, calls for the hammer, but then disappears and shows up in an attempt to hammer haylen.

Mask, Is it not customary hider play to list a potential list of players to be hid behind?

Kanye also still needs a ton of rope. And I do not at all see why people have multiple town reads on tajo.

I am

Vanilla Town

.

I am not any power role. I am not mafia. I can make no night actions and have no night actions.

Benmage claimed to track me to the night kill obviously to fish for reactions.

Who would jump on the wagon.
Who would stay off because they knew he was lying.
Who would waffle around.

Its obviously the M.O. of several players to do that. It is quite possible he is in fact a tracker with a different result, in which case Benmage please claim that result. But dont say you tracked me anywhere, because that is impossible.

[Magister Ludi]

Ah, no, thats an incorrect way of thinking. You're pinning tomorrow's Benmages lynch on me should I be quickhammered in the next several posts.

Benmage's gambit would only come from town, as it would be a suicidal scum play.

But I am also town.

We are lynching neither of us. Several of the votes that have sprung up on this wagon need to be lynched, because they know for a fact that Benmage is lying and are more than happy to take the town lynch today and then again the town lynch tomorrow.

[Magister Ludi]

Juls, the only reason I could possibly think of was that he thought my vote on him yesterday was bad enough to think I was mafia and then tried this trick today to get reactions and the lynch.

I have seen this happen multiple times in games where people will claim results that are in no way shape or form feasible to get reactions and their desired way of thinking. Its silly and stupid, but It has clearly happened again.

If you had a town read on me before, and you are town don't let one man's attempt and oneliner statement to get a lynch essentially distort your way of thinking.

[Magister Ludi]

Most recent one I read that lead to a straight town loss.

https://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.p ... 3#p2996973

There are many games where this is in the similar vein. Also, I would like to hear from Benmage again about his claimed 'result' on me.

[Magister Ludi]

The only way that scenario could happen was if benmage flips before me, whichwould mean we didn't go through with this misguided lynch, which would mean that the town realized I am town.

By proposing that scenario, it indicates to me you don't fully believe in this lynch but are hesitant to go against a claimed tracker with result.

I am town. You need to see this.

[Magister Ludi]

Resignedly beneath the sky
The melancholy waters lie.
So blend the turrets and shadows there
That all seem pendulous in air,
While from a proud tower in the town
Death looks gigantically down.

[Magister Ludi]

Winning is everything.

I always like scum quicktopics:

I think I used daytalk as much as feasible. When I died and there were two players left, there wasn't much to say except shoting the breeze.

I disagreed with Reck's desicion to bring Amrun into lynch or lose. Other than that, well player brother!

(The perfect storm almost.)

It was good fun playing with all of you by the way. Look forward to it again.

[Magister Ludi]

There were a lot of good players on both teams here.

[Magister Ludi]

You read the whole thing so fast. Speedy gonzalez!

[Magister Ludi]

How so?

[Magister Ludi]

Half the time the night had just ended and with the arrival of day some exciting event had happened

[Magister Ludi]

Yeah I posted it already, look back a few pages.
