Mafia 46 - Ace Attorney - GAME THREAD

[Foxcastle]

(To be clear, rdrivera, I'm not implying you're playing hooky or that your personal life is a fabricated excuse. We all have lives to live outside of the thread, but I do mean to say in general that you've never gotten around to actually building a case. Anyway, enjoy your daughter's event!)

I'll write up an analysis similar to the one I did on Moscow's during the night to see if this is indeed a trend.

But yes, he's clearly lurking intentionally.

[Durga]

teacon posted in the wrong mafia thread? i think?

[ChippeRock]

For everyone's convenience, I am reposting teacon's posts that he posted in the wrong thread (supposedly unintentionally).

Here's the quote from the signup thread re my absence. Sorry for being useless this phase.

Alright folks, here's the story. I'm posting this now in the signup thread because I have scheduled travel. A buddy of mine is getting married in California, and I'm pumped to be there at the festivities. I'm travelling on June 5-8, and apart from airport layover times on the 5th and 8th I'll probably lurk a lot more than usual for those days. That translates to ::quick math:: n1 to d2. After that, I should be back and able to post. You're gonna scumread me for it and there's nothing I can do about it, but fwiw it's an out-of-game thing. If anyone (GM especially) thinks that's reason for me to move to the sub list or to not-play, please speak up now. Otherwise I'm looking forward to a great game with you all, hopefully at a less obnoxious postcount, and hopefully with more than one correct read.

Okay so I'm posting from the car on the way to the airport. Back to LAX... wooo... I tried to read and catch up this morning at breakfast... But I have to make the flight in time. What followed is what I could do at breakfast from my phone.

RIP bozo.
... why bozo? Did someone push him on lurking? Or was this for other reasons?

Catching up now...

RDRIVERA ITS NOT ITS BETWEEN ME AND TRPRADO

If it's between &&vote Flavius

:Lol:


I'll have to do a more detailed read of EoD1 later when I'm not traveling. It looked like you guys lynched bozo as a way to consolidate on someone. Are consolidation calls AI? After all the pushes from squids and balki and Prado and Carl, I'm disappointed that there weren't better reasons.

Do recall please that scum have a secretary so there could have been some level of coordination on their part EoD1. That's not usual for d1. I can't really parse the vote tracker on a phone to make sense of moves, but that's something to keep in mind.

...

On reflection Neph doesn't seem town at all. Good candidate to read in iso when I get a chance.

Oh gosh there's ... A lot of pages... Okay.

... While I totally understand ND's reaction to the size of the game... I'm not liking how he's basically just checking in here with name-calling. I'm not one to take bc I'm also just checking in. The game is hard to read bc there's a lot to read. But at least skip the hate, ey?
...

... There is no way I'm going to catch up in time. The last page I read was pg 87.


##vote trprado because from what I've been reading he's making lots of nose but isn't really committing much signal.

[damo666]

Must've been a good wedding!

[Balki Bartokomous]

Just to be clear: I’ve also posted a few rock solid cases, but I posted them in the wrong threads.

[rdrivera2005]

He italicized probably.

I came to the same conclusion in my iso of Fox. Feel free to convince me I'm wrong though, because my conclusion was very iffy.

Maybe tomorrow, today is pointless and I have no time anyway.

Not that you've had time to give a single reason since you first scumread me over 100 pages ago.

I didn't build a big case, true, but I gave my reasons and we even discussed then so you are just lying or trying to discredit me or both.

[EspressoPatronum]

Damo wants to end it. Doesn't the phase already end in a few hours (3PM EST right?)

Of the two, I still hold that EP is town. So I'm not voting for him. I don't really see why he is being voted up. It's dumb imo.

Pretty sure most of the maf team is on me right now. That explains up to 6 of the 10 votes.

[peterlund]

Hi Peter. Good luck on reading 140 pages.

Yeah that is huge!

##VOTE NO-LYNCH

I see there are a lot of PRs in this game with single/few actions. Can someone please help me out if any of those actions have been taken so far, e.g has Innocent child been claimed yet an so on?

Do you think ET is Town or Scum?

PRs are all hidden. Though Bailiff (Darg) was murdered with a car bomb last night.

Judge acted today to limit lynch to EP and ET.

I'm writing up a full reads list now. Eta 1ish hour. I'll be here for EOD, so I can answer any questions on my reads.

Regarding et, I think he's town. Given that so many people are on me, however, I assume mafia is more okay with me dying than et. I believe there are 3 reasons for this.
1. They want me dead
2. They plan to swing to et
3. They're trying to blend in with the town (who they assume wants me dead)

If #1, we should kill et.
If #2, more people should vote against me to prevent the swing.
No idea about #3.

[Balki Bartokomous]

@Peter, No Lynch is not a valid vote. But if you think both of the E’s are Town, you should vote ET and try to tie the vote.

Why would they plan to swing to ET?

[Balki Bartokomous]

@Chippe, do you plan on voting? I am remaining unvoted so that a tie is still possible.

[Foxcastle]

I stand corrected. Your reasons are a "feeling" and this compilation of grasping at straws. Forgive me that such weak fluff did not stick in my mind. (Additional reply from me, and re-reply from Rdrivera can be found here.)

It baffles me that we're this far along, and this is the strongest case you've managed to make. (And more so that more people aren't scumreading you for it!) Both you and TrPrado look more like you're trying to get me lynched than actually trying to solve the game.
