open 910 - mafia thread

hi

[mirrored]

Yeah, but I'm not new to Mafia. I don't want to reveal anything more about my experience though - I'm interested in what people think of me without any playermeta.

[mirrored]

I'm not too worried about the wagon on me especially because blood's reasoning is faulty and easily exploitable to target them:

Anyways, I don't think sunflower would follow mirrored's vote on me like that if they were both scum, so if there's a scum in there I think mirrored. Mostly because of the comment about hiding previous mafia experience.

When I first read this, this is what it seemed like:
- "If there is scum on me, mirrored is scum" ->
- "mirrored is scum" (this assumes there is scum on blood, OMGUS comes to mind)

Given the contradictory statements he's already put out, I'm fine letting this continue (while of course responding to it somewhat) and waiting for him to further sabotage himself. It doesn't seem you need to defend me.

This game designed that all town must vote mafia member, or we never win.


Watch out for "early game" busses or taunts.

I am not liking Sunflower at all. Too much dumbtells for my taste.

saving this for later because each of the 3 sentences can be argued to be scummy

How about miselimming Black (baiting Blood into leading that wagon) and then easily pivoting into Blood?

[mirrored]

In that case I can pocket Black and you can vote him?

[mirrored]

My post 142 at the same time pockets Black and gives a reason to push/suspect him (interactions with White Lotus, not by itself a good reason but it's a reason). You can definitely use it later, though right now pushing Black wouldn't be wise.

Town forgot all about this. But we can bus each other, even into VoLo, as long as we vote our other SR instead of each other.

[mirrored]

Also there's a chance WL is town and one scum is on the wagon and the other scum is waiting to hammer to avoid suspicion

[mirrored]

I have 3 plays here:
- Hammer WL
- Push Sunflower
- Continue to push Blood

Either way WL will die. I'm considering the consequences of each and what I need to do.

[mirrored]

(need to do in each case)

I pocket Black in all cases and will townlean you. I'm thinking I SR all 3 of WL/Sunflower/Blood, actually. This pits me against Sunflower in VoLo but I think it's likely we win in that case.

I plan my reads around WL dying today. Black is a town we can pocket to get to vote someone who's not us - with all the people suspecting her, we have the advantage in pocketing as people will latch onto their apparent allies in stressful situations. She has no strong reads, though, so there's no way to know who she ends up leaning toward voting tomorrow - that's why it's good to keep our options open with my triple scum suspects.

Sunflower TRs BloodB0t and it's unlikely to change. If we choose them as our ally, our only choice would be Black - possible, but it's hard to convince them to specifically vote Black.

BloodB0t is in your pocket, but allying with him would require pushing Sunflower (Black would be difficult).

Based on this, I say we pocket one of Black/BloodB0t and I vote WL, after that Blood/Sunflower in accordance (either in the former case, Black in the latter case).

No one has a solid reason to scumread me, so I can put out a few long posts of bullshit to make people TR me. I'll look the part of a scumhunter - I think this'll look good in contrast to the flippant nature of this game.

[mirrored]

WL dies, we are ready for D2 after. I'll hammer tomorrow unless some seismic shift happens. I really needed to lay the groundwork for D2 before hammer.

[mirrored]

I haven't read most of the recent posts yet but it looks like more chaos in the town. My posts have sparked paranoia, always nice.

I'm going to TR Black and you, scumlean BloodB0t and hammer WL.

[mirrored]

Do you mean that we or town can't trust Black and Blood?

[mirrored]

It's completely fine for town to SR me as long as they're voting their other (wrong) scumread. It's also fine for us to bus each other as long as we vote town.

At this rate I expect some town to vote wrong, then we QH. I have two strategies: keep quiet (avoiding prod of course) and wait for town infighting to brew, or try to push one town and get the other two to vote. I don't know which is safer, but I'm the likelier of us two to be forced to cross.

[mirrored]

Game end in less than 48 hours, let's do this.

Sunflower/Black are sussing Blood and Blood is sussing Sunflower, we have two openings for a game-winning push. It's possible to divide them between us to do simultaneously.

I'm feeling I should vote in the next 24 hours to seem natural, forcing Sunflower to cross. What do you think?

[mirrored]

I'll try to be online at 19:40 UTC, and I'll definitely be here at 21:20 until midnight as needed. You can also expect me in the hours I normally post.
