Grande Idea - Endgame - Mafia wins

I’m gonna go eat lunch real quick.
We’ll figure this out in EoD.

i also feel li ke this is incredibly obvious and useless to exe cute because that’s just asking to be eaten alive last minute piling

why would you pile if this is day 1

I think if w!pandora ash as a teammate would make sense, but ig the only thing giving me pause is whether w!ash would come to a mid d1 poe of w!pandora and daeron

Ash’s posting has also gotten worse in the past half hour

If w!hazard, zoe as a teammate makes sense i suppose (tho i believe in this less)

I like don’t even think mafia would be this brazen

I think ash is town

i feel like ash is generally more brazen as mafia than town but i could be wrong?

Meow…hazard…pandora…

Yeah i can see it

i have to go and won’t be back before eod very shortly so. i’m not moving my vote.

(although pandora is a nice consideration i rather vote ash)

Ok maybe i’m showing my lack of understanding of mafia theory here but why would it be bad to execute lhf d1? Like surely mafia would prefer a miskill on a more active villager to keep the pool of misexes larger for future days.

I suppose the counterargument is that you’re hoping that t!pandora can become more active and readable as the game goes on but ig fmpov i have no idea if this is true.

I fell asleep i woke up

Sorry again if ur town carbonated

My eyes are closing

god I need to start accepting I can’t do reads within 20 minutes. how do you do that dropdown thing

long not well-organized or analytical thoughts on everyone:

Summary

Willow

  • she’s apparently in her town meta. mainly I’m just getting very neutral from her, but everyone else is getting towny, so I’m probably just being paranoid
  • hasn’t really made any reads besides marluna. I mean I guess I’d expect a mafia member to be more active/agenda pushing/thread control, but she’s just straight up not really been around. I guess this could be towny
  • don’t really get how I feel about how she reacted to my “perspective slip.”
  • on one hand, tunneling in it and trying to push me would feel really wolfy, so backing off is towny
  • on the other hand, the assurance that she wasn’t putting too much stock into it feels slightly like it could be pocketing/tmi or hoping someone else picks up on it and pushes me for her

pandora

  • kinda same as willow in terms of the activity reads
  • initial role soft/opener is ugh kinda hard to see as mafia but maybe if mafia had a good fake in mind already and was acting like it?
  • jumped easily enough on the jason wagon

zoethepenguin

  • outlined the townread earlier but the specificity does lock her into some subset of roles probably

Daeron

  • towny points: the cases on jason and ash are like crazy effort, and I can see the reasoning, it’s doesn’t feel manufactured
  • antitowny points: but I’m townreading both of them

HazardWaste

  • think everything he’s said could be said by either alignment either performatively or not
  • the comment about ash being towny if any of ash’s analysis roles show up feels hard to come up with from a mafia pov
  • I generally like the reads and posts though

Leafia/tutuu

  • WE HAVE A TOWN LEADER yayy sheep sheep
  • I’m going to be paranoid about you later way too high effort posting/trying to organize us to worry right now

Marluna

  • still subscribing to alignment mech theory + very much in town meta according to many people

iamagummybear

  • genuinely don’t think mafia gummy would fake this role unless she rolled mafia innocent child with this role. similar to marluna, I don’t really want to think about it as a possibility
  • I think her stated plan to use the role to communicate to marluna is pretty towny! two towny people talking to each other is good. I think there must be at least 1 town between gummy/marluna bc of the confirmable town roles thing. so I don’t think it can be a gummy faking neighborizer ability by only “neighborizing” mafia teammates thing.
  • beyond that I guess I’d maybe expect some more impulsive accusations/more conviction from a town gummy (i.e., stuff like the kill meow thing) than she’s done so far, but gummy is going to respond and say it’s bc she has an exam which is also valid

Ash

  • I think a big thing for reading ash is that the punctuation and capitalization makes all his reads sound like he’s presenting them with 100% certainty, which can be very annoying when you think he’s wrong, so you have to like have a mental filter to automatically add uncertainty points to them
  • I’ve been like surprisingly not-in-disagreement with ash’s posting this game. this is kinda weird bc usually I am with town ash, but he still feels like town ash
  • I think his general responses to the accusations have been good?

carbonated

  • don’t remember playing a game with you as mafia and me as town, so I don’t have a good mental image of how you feel as mafia
  • I feel like you are like. sillier. as town. this could be bc my recent memory of your town activities were the baffling fake redcheck and the baffling vanilla townie claim.
  • I haven’t really felt that level of ??? from you yet (BUT IT’S ONLY D1 there is so much time for it later)
  • I don’t have any strong reads on you essentially I think

jason.mrrown

  • jason mrrown.
  • you’re like towny and stuff and then I get randomly ???ed by you townreading me even though you’re not worried about blindspoting me. overall a problem I pray just gets solved by one of us getting nightkilled or something
  • I think a lot of the stuff could be mafia, but I don’t think it is is probably my current conclusion

current tiers:
marluna / gummy
tutuu / jason / ash
zoe / daeron
hazard / willow / pandora / carbon

I guess my poe is hazard / willow / pandora / carbon
pandora >= carbon > hazard = willow?

I think probably some reasoning would be wagons / justification for voting
voting the inactive is harder to get alignment-info from than making pushes on actives, I imagine ash would say

I am explaining this poorly, but beyond just “player will become more readable”, it’s also the idea that killing it gives us nothing in terms of direction. If pandora flips wolf, where do you go from there? Who’s vouched for her? What can you solve off that?
And it’s also giving me a lot of pause that you seemed extremely eager to swap into a pandora vote, almost at the drop of a hat.

if I vote pandora here, and carbon swaps to self-pres, we end up with a tie

You and jason are both town don’t tunnel each other rn and move on

This is town on town violence

So ash has gone from fairly confidently reading carbon all of d1, including up to an hour (?) ago

but when I present him with the chance to vote according to his poe earlier he balks and votes carbon instead?

I can’t remember which game but i’m p sure i’ve made a similar argument as mafia before in a previous game

This justification also is not great bc ash is arguing that pandora is lhf so we should not vote her when the same case could be made for carbon given her known propensity to be killed early. I think w!ash makes this post to defend w!pandora and then in the followup post (#937) ash tries to include the possibility of w!pandora / t!carbon to cover his bases.

The reason ash would want to vote carbon over pandora would be to save his wolf teammate

Tldr i think the wolfteam is ash/pandora

Too late

Okay this is not the only reason

She said shes not moving (in case thats relevant to this)
