After a reread I'm actually just straight up positive Aerious is town - the town panic is just everywhere, bleeding out into the thread.
Which leaves 5 players - 2 heavily analytical (epona/glow) + 3 other (Tensu/Ace/guav@)
Now, I've toyed around with the idea of me being wrong about there being at least one of the analytical players in the mafia team, and the more I think about it the more absurd it becomes. Tensu/Ace/guav@ just doesn't make sense as a team esp with these nightkills.
So that more or less locks it in that between glow/epona there is at minimum one mafia. (From my perspective.)
I also toyed around with the idea that they were both mafia, and I couldn't really find a hole in this. I don't have anything to suggest it would be the case however, and would like to optimistically believe it isn't the case. (Esp since glow/epona's content is both so good.)
So that leaves me in a situation of (glow / epona) + 2 out of (Tensu/Ace/guav@)
I've covered earlier (and Aerious especially strongly disagrees with me) that I really don't think glow/guav@ are a reasonable team. I just can't really fathom a mafia player going "I don't care if <my teammate> is mafia, I like the road they're on".
Which gives me a really sweet lock in of the entire mafia team in the event that glow is mafia. (glow+Tensu+Ace)
Unfortunately, I'm struggling to see that view point - the more I read glow's content the more genuine it looks.
And if glow is town, that would give me PoE that epona is mafia.
Which gives me epona + 2 out of (Ace / guava/ Tensu)
Which is where I'm stuck, because I know most of the participants in this thread would drill in "Tensu/epona not a team" and just flip this straight into epona+Ace+guava.
But that feels.. off. I can't really express how or why that feels off - maybe it's because this is the natural progression I've been more or less sliding into over the last couple of days, and I just sort of wonder why I'm still alive. Maybe it's because this game feels incredibly complex and this would be a.. simplistic solution.
And honestly it would also mean I was wrong about fighting a Tensu/epona not w/w read. But hey, I can absolutely admit I'm wrong at times.
Sorry for that was a mess of thoughts, my only real takeaways from this are
a)
@Aerious Please don't autotunnel glow, consider why you are still alive
b)
@glow I know you said there was likely mafia in me/Antonio - but please try and re-evaluate here because I'm fairly sure you're town and if you vote me and you're town we lose by default. (As that would be enough for mafia to have a majority.)
