Mafia 42 - Space Ghost Coast to Coast - OFFICIAL GAME THREAD

[thdfrance]

Is anyone else looking at ghug currently? Reading back through is posts something seems different from how he usually has played as town. Lots of his posts are one sentence responses to various ideas put out by other people, but they're very surface level reactions as opposed to deep insight. I'm wondering if this is him trying to avoid drawing attention to himself?

Then look at the end of day 1! He's suprised ND was lynched despite having his vote parked on ND for the entire day and not putting forward any other ideas? Doesn't seem like a ghug play.

It wouldn't absolutely townclear, it would virtually townclear. I do not wish to name names at this stage but it should be discernible from d1 vote patterns.

so it would virtually townclear a bunch of people....but you wont share your thoughts until after the lynch goes through?? Not really thinking that this makes sense. ##unvote

that didn't last long

Yes, because you immediately said that you wouldn't list the townclears out prior to the lynch. I'm not gonna fall on the sword without knowing who and how I'm saving.

[ghug]

late vote switch from flash to thdfrance would not make sense as scum

This almost sounds like a scumslip knowing that THD is scum.

Or just some terrible reasoning, because scum would totally love the scrutiny for being on a vanity wagon right?

Damo is probably scum as well here

Then join me on the thd vote

This is the damo I want to see

I'm trying to decide if your argument is scummy or just bad.

I've played exclusively from my phone for about two years at this point, so my posts are rarely long. A generous view would write that off as you remembering an old me. Less generous is that you're grasping at straws. I disagree that my reactions are more surface level than deep insight.

I was the third ND voter to voice surprise at his being lynched, and I did so after the first two were called out. It seems odd to only notice or care about this from me and to not understand the context of the statement when I quoted that context in the post where I made it. Kinda feels like you're looking at me in isolation on the bot and just trying to pick out things you think look bad. This is a point I'm struggling to find an alternative innocent explanation for.

As for the surprise itself, it's entirely reasonable. A notable thing happened. Again, I could see you finding it odd that I didn't more aggressively throw my vote around and push a lynch because you remember an older me, but I'm tired of leading every day one lynch, and I have been for a while.

In a more general sense, I'm surprised you don't scumread me for being less screaming than usual, because that usually does correlate with my being scum, and I've been expecting to get more heat for it.

Still scumreading thd.

Not yet

Not drinking today too, not at beach anymore

I don't think Damo bad logic on town cleaning Tham is scummy, what would be a scum motivation to do this? I find the focus on info more worrying as it's usually a scum tactics to avoid real reads and it's exactly what I was pushing on Dargo.

why is it bad logic?

Because Than moving his vote to Thdfrance instead of ND doesn't townclear him, even if thd is scum (in this case, yes, he get some points, but bussing is always possible, Jamiet just won a game bussing Xorxes like this at EOD1). And if thd isn't scum there is a lot of reasons to change his vote instead of parking on a vanity wagon, like other scumbos already voting ND..

If tham was scum why would he bother switching at all? If thd is town it would be risking a tie, if thd is scum I suppose a gambling bus is just about possible but I just don't buy it. So, although not technically a townclear I'd put it at 95%+ town and will carry on with a working assumption thamrick is town.

getting some good town mojo from damo.

Where’s my punching bag Moscow. Come grace us with your supposed towniness

Because if you are online and people see you staying on a vanity vote you will get heat for it (look at Demon being pressured on it). Also, a tie on D1 is probably better for scum then a myslinch, specially if both wagons were town.
And I think this matter is over, we will have to agree to disagree.

[damo666]

I am in agreement with disagreement.

[e.m.c^42]

Tom why is info lynch lame?

LQ still my top scum suspect

What are your other reasons for scumreading Quas so much, other than this:
"LQuas - you advocate more posts but also not thorough [reading] of thread. This is contradictory. And I don't like it."

Personally I felt like you took it a little out of context: He was responding to an attitude problem that some players seemed to have--to which he said something along the lines of (what I understood to be), skimming is better than not reading at all, skimming and responding is better than just skimming, and actively reading and participating is the best.

but he didn't say that

Lol you're probably right, considering I wrote that off the top of my head without peterbotting--just general recall. Lemme go check now.

But still, the point applies: Are there any other reasons? :D

Currently my town sits at

The brain claim seems really odd, I'm inclined not to believe it as vapor is a horrendous save. Gonna sit NAI on it for now though

That was the main one. Other than that just general vibes really. Oh and he might have saved thd though I must admit thd's robust defence against my advocating an info lynch on him lends me to think he's prob town.
