Boy Band Mafia

[Animavore]

I'm off to bed but I want to leave with a vote rather than none in case it is needed.
Should I vote for Mantis?

[oblivion]

I'm partway through my reread of feral p's earlier games. He's very different in this game compared to the star trek game, but people change a lot in their early games.

Vote for who you think is scum. I'll keep your opinion in mind when I form my own.

[Animavore]

I've been reading back through it. Everyone's playing a coy game.
My main 3 are FP, Charlou and Mantis but it really is a hunch. I'm not sure I should go for anyone but I don't want scum taking advantage of indecisiveness.

Vote Mantis

Just for the sake of not leaving a non-vote. It might be useful or not.
Don't see it as an accusation or feel you have to follow it. Scum may try to hop on the band-wagon with the view of making me look bad if it turns out she's innocent so I would look out for anyone joining the lynch without reason.

[irretating]

OK I'm home and on a computer now. Phew.

Yes, I'm the doc. I figure it's better for town for me to avoid the lynch today (given it was heading that way). Tonight I may or may not protect myself or the seer or the person I suspect is the vig.

Re who killed who... I'm thinking feck was killed by scum and ed by the vig. the reverse could be true if my gut feel on who the vig is, is correct. I won't reveal it publicly, for obvious reasons.

I'm going to leave oblivion alone because if she's town she's a serious scum hunter and scum will want her scalp. If she's scum, she'll stay alive. Tomorrow can decide for her.

My pick is charlou, because she's not really playing (not sure why, but could be a scum tactic of knowing that loud players eg me, ziggy) get the attention

unvote vote charlou

Feral P:

Star Trek Day 1 - jumped on Gandalf bandwagon, "oh crap" (cheerleading) postgame.
Star Trek Day 2 & 3 - short posts, "why do you think I'm scum?" "why do you think I'm n00b?" no real content but the votes

Question Mafia Day 1 - longer posts, first is a fos without a vote, few posts.
Question Mafia Day 2 - "I'm not sure what to do post"

meh...done reading for now.

The main thing I'm coming away with is that Feral P has been relatively outraged by the votes and negative comments in this game compared to similar comments in earlier games. This smells like n00b town to me.

I've been assuming that Ani is probably town. Part has been my growing impression that his play is pro-town. But part was because Twinkie has supported him every time I've posted a mild fos. Yesterday, I thought this might be a scum tendency to defend someone they know is town and want to ingratiate for later in the game. With the doc claim, I'm assuming she genuinely thinks Ani is town.

So that leaves Charlou, DennyB, Magicziggy and Mantis.

MZ's vote switch doesn't look as suspicious now that we can assume Twinkie is town.

I'm leaning toward either Mantis or Charlou, but I'm not very confident about either.

[oblivion]

I see a world of wifom for town tomorrow if I'm not dead.

[DennyB]

The reason I said anything to ani is that I wanted to avoid him being a lynch magnet due to his scattergun style. I'm not buying the first votes fluff thing thus attract a lynch vote, hence my chane of tack. I intended to move my vote off feral but he reacted scummily. Possibly noobily but who can know.

I'm the doc and I protected oblivion last night. That she wasn't even targeted is suspicious, no matter her justification.

Oblivion decided not to kill me but get me lynched on the basis I survived the night. Familiar rationale, no?

The doc....ploy?
Ponderious
I'm too much of a n00b to play with this possibility.

Vote Mantis

[oblivion]

vote Charlou

Let's see what happens with competing bandwagons.

DennyB, without a counterclaim, town should take Twinkie's doc claim at face value. Special tells and scum tells are similar in a lot of ways. I've been careful not to put a lot of pressure someone I think is a special, and I messed up with a different special. I misread what I was seeing with Twinkie, especially the change in day 1 behavior. I had no idea it was an intentional improvement of her town game.

Crap, oblivion, it's wifom that got us into this mess. I am hoping you're scum because I'll have done town a massive disservice otherwise.

Vig: hands off oblivion tonight, please.

[DennyB]

Zig,
Did I do my vote correctly?
I know there is no editing soo....
If not....

Vote Mantis

That my story and I'm sticking to it.

[oblivion]

Let's talk about seer views and what would help town the most tomorrow. We don't want the seer and vig going for the same player if at all possible. Maybe suggest a couple players for each, and not any duplicates?

I'm town. You'll have to judge for yourself how much I've helped town. The jury is out until the game is over.

I hate the amount of wifom I generate. I have to find ways to play effectively despite it.

Why do you think Mantis is scum?

[oblivion]

If we think both Mantis and Charlou are either too scummy or too much of a question mark, we could ask the vig to kill whichever of them is not lynched.

And we could ask the seer to view either DennyB or Feral P. For me, that would resolve 3 of the 4 huge question marks still in the game.

[oblivion]

but damn it. it would be really good to hear from both Mantis and Charlou before nightfall. And Feral P hasn't been around for the last several hours, either.
