Mafia The Real Housewives of Mafia - Town Wins

i mean i'm not that keen on how kat bolded it and stated it as fact but i do see where she's coming from, it definitely didn't feel coached and punchy definitely doesn't seem like a mafia player would fake that reaction but then again i havent played with him
 
Arsonist was a mafia role in Bianca's last game but that was specified as an arsonist game. I doubt toad would specify but I could see it as maf or TP idk
 
He could be getting coached, or maybe he's just good at scum. We've never seen him as scum before so it's possible
Occam's razor. You think it's more likely that some player in scumchat told him "hey guess what BS being town"? Scum chat is generally very quiet, especially if it's not EoD. I HIGHLY doubt it.

Also @ Dolby I disagree, maybe to a town perspective it's hard to make that jump but put yourself in scum's shoes, and under the belief that Arso is a mafia role. Like maybe you'd have that thought of "wait isn't Arso a mafia role" but then your mind would go to your team and see that you don't have an Arso and be like "welp nvm".

Hi, can I get like a full lists from you (just names not reasoning)

ah yeah that's what I was thinking of

it could be either way, but whatever it is, the point stands that Kat's insistence on punchy's innocence because of his arsonist question is (a) likely wrong and (b) poorly reasoned in my opinion. Very, VERY likely Kat is protecting punchy

Nah, I've definetely asked my questions in thread as a noob to get towncred before

I didn't state it that way at first either, only reason I bolded it was because that was the 3rd time I had to say it, it went ignored hardcore and that lack of attention towards it is also making me more confident in the clear since I think mafia would have jumped on it if the clear was incorrect.
 
picking things up from page 40 where i went to bed last night:

Arstotzkan said:
Ness's posts make me feel pretty townish overall imo. I feel like he's been generating pretty good content when he's been present and I like his interaction here with Heyden in particular. It's not strong but slight townlead imo

What about me do you think is "townish" exactly? fyi Not complaining about a townread, i'm just genuinely curious why you think that way bc if ur townleaning me i'd prefer more of an explanation

Arstotzkan said:

well damn, I didn't know u could go from townleaning him to hard scumleaning him in an instant :confused: :thinking:

hooray now i get to read dad's huge mind**** of a text wall, probably going to say things that other people have said bc i'm analyzing without reading posts after it on page 40 so w/e

Dad said:
When did I towntell glow? If I say nothing about them it's called a null, ****bird. Putting words in my mouth isn't going to help push your shallow case here.

Endless never said you were townleaning glow, he said that you ignored her.

Dad said:
The point about Ness not being an ace scumhunter neglects the exact ****ing point I was making about why I listed him as choice experienced player to put as mafia: it's not about him being an ace scumhunter, it's about him having shown he can pull through as mafia or third party, which he has demonstrated on multiple occasions here on tbt.

Yeah sure, I would say that I can hold my own as mafia. But your ENTIRE point here is going off of what you think would be going through the host's mind when picking roles. How can you know that Toads doesn't pick randomly? Exactly: you don't know that at all. I think the """Godfather Theory""" is piece of crap and does nothing but waste time. You've basically admitted here that the ONLY reason you had to be suspicious of me initially was because you were going off of host meta.

What was you're original reason for susing me exactly? Not going after anyone in the first 12 hours of the game while i'm asleep? PUH-LEASE. You seemed pretty confident that I was the experienced player on the mafia team for literally 0 other reasoning then basing an assumption off of how you think the host would lump me into what category of balance.

Dad said:
Astro/SarasKat not seeing that Ness is at least one of the more experienced players of the bunch is surprising considering she ran mystic messenger and a number of players in the game tipped their hats to Ness for his play there after he flipped.

Okay sure, it was a good play as Jester, but you're STILL using host bias. I don't give a monkey's left nut about host balancing, if you actually think someone is suspicious then have a better reason then just saying "oh they're experienced so they might be mafia in this group of people".

Dad said:
This is going to get annoying because it's only going to inflame the alignments that seem to be forcing themselves on me in this game but I agree with glow not liking Astro's sudden flip on me. Astro casually read me as town for my post but as soon as one of the biggest voices swoops in to make a case against me she suddenly turns around and is like 'oh woops I read Dad wrong, going to reread him now!'

It's going to come off as an omgus but I suspect astro as mafia. A lot more than Endless even. Despite him being back on his bull****.

Alright, I can agree with you that I do find Kat to be suspicious for doing a complete 180 on you.

Dad said:
Astro, I'll drop the topic after making one last statement on it: I recall Ness being able to get a fast lynch on evan in BotW mafia. So I've seen him lead too. But I digress because ya'll trying to use the argument that Ness is an incapable player against me is pretty dumb.

HMMMM I WONDER WHAT HAPPENED WHEN I LEAD THAT LYNCH. OH YEAH, I USED TOAD'S HOST META AND EVAN TURNED OUT TO BE VETERAN.

Yeah sure, I can get a crowd riled up from time to time. So what? The point here isn't that people are saying i'm "incapable" or "not experienced", the point here is that you're using host bias to base an entire point around me.

Honestly I've spent the last 45 minutes slowly reading and typing this crap and its only hurting my head/eyes. I have a chirstmas party to prepare for at 7 and here I am reading back and forth bickering about whether or not people consider me experienced.

Clearly it seems I can't message people without it being openly discussed in the thread. Whatever. I'm voting dad becuase I like Endless' case on him.

This makes me...uncomfortable. It seems like Farobi has just been flying under the radar for the majority of the game, it must be easy to play sheep huh? Can we all take a minute to recognize that Farobi has done basically nothing this game and has focused solely on making connections through PMs? Thanks.

You know if I'm being 100% honest, I'm doubting that Dad is mafia. The fact that basically everyone is jumping on him makes me uncomfortable in general.

Ok, I TR Dedenne, but she seems a little different then the last two games where she was town.

God, do you just townread and scumread people like picking out candy or something? Your posts have little to no consistency to them.

I don't think I'll be on tomorrow cos I have to help family prepare for a Christmas party but I actually feel super uncomfortable with everyone jumping on Dad and think that Endless/Kat maybe glow is more likely pulling the strings here. I will say though this is the first time I'm not townreadinf Dad early on. Also Farobi, who's more interested in 'making alliances' than scumhunting, which gives me scum vibes. Don't think Punchy lynch will happen and I don't really feel it either.

As for Zendel/Vanessa/Ness, was mostly based on tonal differences but yeah I dunno I sort of just jumped on them based on first.

Okay, I absolutely LOVE the fact that heyden brought up Farobi here, I was just thinking the exact same thing. While I'm not really sold on Kat/Endless being behind the scenes right now, I really like this post. +1 to Heyden.

The reason I was PMing people is to probe deeper the things that could be said differently if in a more public setting, aka this thread. There are more people I initiated PMs with who are not what you may call the "easily manipulated" players fyi since I'm really working on town's best efforts individually as well with the information I'm trying to get for myself. I would do it in the thread but probing individually seems to be more personal, but judging from many of the replies I get they either seem hesitant or give me closed-off vibes so it's nothing for me to be able to delve into yet.

Would someone whose received a PM of Farobi possibly post it in the thread just so we can see what he's saying? Ty

And it's also ironic that you mention I'm not scum hunting when i'm pretty much the only person whose pretty sold with my vote atm lol. Not saying it's not subject to change but right now i see dad more sus than kat at the moment, cause i can see kat's posts from a town perspective moreso than dad.

Buut if we're not going for them, I'd be down for a dedenee lynch honestly. If she turns out scum, then it's very likely punchy is scum along with her too.

Okay, sure. But you have done basically NOTHING this game but sheep. Why scumhunt through PMs when you can quite easily just ask them in the thread? I feel like it would be much more beneficial to do things the old fashioned way instead of using solely using the PM system. And lol @dedenne lynch, literally nobody has stated a word about wanting to lynch Dedenne, since when did you have a sus on her?

I'm going to stop myself from doing any more analysis on this post for the last 3 pages i need to catch up on since this is becoming way too much of a text wall :sighs:
 
btw Dolby my "reads" are subject to change after I posted that, I started thinking about Heyden, Panda and Evan more.

Waffles and Dedenne are still in the dark for me, Dedenne is just there and Waffles is Waffles.
 
Hi, can I get like a full lists from you (just names not reasoning)

oh yeah of course! sry i like to use reasoning to back that up but since u asked!

ness
dolby
endless
hayden
zendal
chele
farobi
panda
punchy
dedenne
vanessamay
itookurwaffles
sensai
amazon
kat
dad
glow

i think? i feel REALLY weird about putting glow last but i'm forced to bc she hasn't actually done anything yet so there she is. im worried part of me is being petty when it comes to dad and im not being objective but that push on me just felt wrong (kat and ur push fair enough bc totally valid) but his just seems like bs. a lot of the nulls i have not much feelings on and id have to reread their thoughts. all my town leans aren't that strong tbh but ye id say its basically in order except the top 3 are interchangeable. kat i feel better on but i dont like her automatic approval of dad bc its so not like her. also im not long home from work so i rly should reread the thread a bit lol. also im not rly sussing yellow too much just like 'IM LOOKING AT U'

- - - Post Merge - - -

im getting nervous about panda but i know she's genuinely really busy so im gonna wait until she's around a bit more!

also!!!!!!!!!!!! i thought i coloured zendal green my bad
 
Voted now because idk if I'll be back from work before EOD. I would happily switch to a glow lynch should that become a thing and I get back in time.
 
I'm voting now as well because I don't think I'll be around my laptop until tomorrow.

I'm voting Dad as I feel he is the most optimal choice for a lynch.
 
Voting dad. I’d also be down for a glow lynch but am less confident about lynching Kat or Punchy.
 
Yeah, I don't like this pile-up on Dad. Honestly would prefer a Glow lynch and will have my vote on her probably unless she provides some content which I like

Town
Chele
Endless
Vanessa (she/Dedenne are kinda connected, but not seeing many red flags)
Waffles
Heyden (again, purely based on statistical likelihood)

Null town (really can't fit them on a specific scum team, and don't see scum indicators really)
Mogyay
Zendal (only really see on a team with Heyden, would've worked harder to work scum into his townlist)
Farobi (on the basis that I don't like Punchy/Farobi are compatible)
Evan (lowkey kinda paranoid that I'm overlooking Evan/Zendal/Heyden/Vanessa/Dedenne grouping to much. But that's to paranoid for even me).
Arstotzkan (Kat does not align well with the Dad/Glow dynamic)

Null
Sensai
Dedenne
Panda
Ness

Sus
Punchy
Dad
Glow

I really want people to consider a Glow lynch more. I feel like her behavior has been more egregious than Dad's, and will serve as a better tell towards Kat's alignment should she flip scum

- - - Post Merge - - -

Also, the pile-up on Dad I don't particularly like either
