M53: Mafia 1 Redux

[Nephthys]

Not so hot takes:

Xorxes is town. He stole the only observation I had in the first few pages in that the role playing cleared some scum-scum pairs.

Out of the role players, Neph is wack, but I'm actually leaning town rn. We'll see if he can keep this mood up.

Vecna is being active, which is good for town no matter his alignment. Interesting that he and Xorxes have disagreed more than once so far, interested to see if that dynamic evolves.

As already noted, Kitsunes opening was cold. Kitsune can you explain more your comment around drunk Kitsune? You seem real hesitant, so give me something open and genuine.

Fox I'm absolutely on board for a ##vote emc

5 randos: Karkarrato, Bozo, BobMcBob, Kitsune, Rdrivera

Drunk Kit?

I have laughably low alcohol tolerance.

One drink I’m flirty, two drinks I’m sleepy, and I don’t really feel either of those moods are useful for me to play right now.

Is “forced” the same as “thinking about my post instead of blathering stream of consciousness”?

I do think about my posts, but I suppose I can stop if people don’t want me scum hunting at all. Just seems dumb.

Rule 1 of mafia is that you can't actually think about what you post.

Now that your inconclusive experiment is over Bozo, could you give us a read or two maybe?

Would you mind sharing some reads yourself as you seem to be pushing others to give reads without providing any yourself.

You mean like if I said Xorxes was likely town, that Vecna was also likely town, that there was no way they are scum together, that you were likely town, but later revised that because of a contrived scum read, said that Kit seemed off and pushed her on that by asking her questions about that, etc? You're right Neph, I should really start making posts like that...

I do not have any significant reads yet. Do you remember/know Kakarroto?

Never played with them

No scum reads yet though?

You and kit are on my radar, but no ones done anything deserving a solid scum read yet, no.

I'm honoured, I'm going for a 2nd D1 lynch in a row

random not choosing? well I chose an online dice roller with the list from the first page, subtracted the everytime the names from the list (so at first it were 17, then 16 etc. from there to roll), that's why I got 2 different names with rolling the same number once. Here the list:
brainbomb (rolled 3)
flash2015 (rolled 6)
rdrivera2005 (rolled 12)
BunnyGo (rolled 3)
bozotheclown (rolled 2)

If I had to choose, I probably would've chosen brain, emc, jamie, RD and Vecna, maybe food, but that wasn't the question there.

The second of the 7 objects is: "Investigate all aspects of the reality-hallucination"

I am investigating this post, by Kakarroto.

What is this gibberish? The highlighted phrase, in particular, makes no logical sense in the English language. "subtracted the everytime the names from the list"?

What?

Cone on, this isn't that hard to understand even badly phrased.

Here we see a wild Jamie preparing a meal of tinfoil. In their natural habitat, Jamies are suspicious, pedantic, and prone to bouts of all caps and obscure wrestling allusions.

I have documentary proof that you shared an Uber with Kakarroto in Prague!

This fell just too defensive. Just post whatever you feel like, but you can't force people to not read it as scummy.

This post holds a special place in my heart

[BobMcBob]

Contrary to Nephthys's feelings, I doth not think that Xorxes seemeth to be trying too hard. As it happens, I doth not believe anyone is trying particularly hard other than Nephthys himself, Kitsune and to some extent Xorxes.

That's... contradictory.

I felt as though thee were trying a bit, but i didst not feel as though thee were trying "too hard" as Nephthys had stated. However, looking through thy posts since then, I hath begun to feel a similar way to Nephthys to some extent.

[xorxes]

This opening/joke phase seems even worse than usual.

Can we please finally policy lynch EMC for being useless? If he won't help town by voting (both to find scum and to help himself be sorted), he should by lynched on Day 1 until until he either learns to play the game or stops using last-minute votes to hide his scum meta.

##VOTE EMC. I'll stop advocating this once he's actually, consistently making multiple prior to the (very lenient) 6-hour mark.

I was planning to roleplay as emc and not vote until 30 minutes to deadline. How does that make you feel?

food probably town.

I got him wrong last game, but he is different this time.

Missed my point Rdr. I accept I tend to get scum read, and while it’s lowkey frustrating it’s not something I’m going to spend much energy on fighting. If I get lynched I get lynched, meanwhile I’m going to focus on what I can usefully do when there’s anything to usefully sift through.

For now, my usual D1 Bozo read: hard to say for sure given the lack of opposition to his plan. Most of us went along with it without really questioning why (either because we could tell, trusted him or didn’t care). Still once he has his findings it feels off that he’s just shrugging and saying it wasn’t useful.

Feels more like honouring his meta than an actual attempt at scum hunting, so I scum lean him until further behavior develops.

[xorxes]

I would like to try an experiment. I am asking everyone to please choose 5 players, besides themselves, at random. The results should be truly random, for instance I used an online random number generator. Here are the results of my random selection:

damo, foodcoat​s, Foxcastle, Kalel, rdrivera

Happy to play along. Note that if I rolled the same number twice I didn't just pick the next on the list, I re-rolled until I got a number I hadn't rolled before.

BunnyGo, Jamiet, Kakarroto, Vecna, RdR

I did role myself before RDR, but thought I saw we weren't including our selves... if that's not the case replace RDR with me.

Why did you need to explain all that?

Not sure that there was no opposition, there were some people complaining at least, but why would anyone bother opposing something so completely innocuous?

[xorxes]

Kalel youre scum again arent you?

That may very well be the case.

[xorxes]

This opening/joke phase seems even worse than usual.

Does it though? It feels pretty ordinary to me.
