Micro 930: Neon Mafia (Game over!)

[Looker]

Exactly. Chemist voted and then I voted because I trusted him.

[Quagsire]

what exactly are his bad associative with nom?

i've pointed them out. multiple times.

Spoiler:

these posts look bad while doing an iso on aldus

I'm suspicious of people who give townreads left and right because that's generally ultra scummy especially without much rationale behind it, especially in the context of micros where there is a lot more emphasis of finding other townies rather than minis and larges

i'm not following this logic. what's scummy about giving lots of townreads?

I'm on page 11 and nomnomnom looks like lynchbait

Luca, do you think nom thinks she could reasonably win a 1v1 with you, and that that would be preferable to trying to avoid suspicion some other way?

How sure are you that nom is scum? You're very confident in the read considering how early (at least, to me) in the game we are.

what do you think of the fact that nom said she isn't "reasonable"? since you are assuming that a town nom would be reasonable

i don't buy the narrative that nom was "coasting" on the menalque wagon

pedit: uhhhhhh

I'm on page 11 and nomnomnom looks like lynchbait

why are you townreading her?

My impression is that nom has been somewhat emotional/confrontational which has attracted votes but I don't think there's scum motive. Why try to provoke Luca into a 1v1 instead of deflecting? In a Luca vs. nom battle I think Luca is more likely to win and I think nom knows that as scum. As town, if she thinks Luca's scum then it might be an uphill battle but at least she's pursuing scum.

I don't agree with what she's said about Luca, but I can see the reasoning behind it. And like I've said previously, I don't think nom was "coasting" on the menalque wagon because she was engaging with him.

I mean I see what you’re saying but I’m just still not understanding Looker’s thought process as town or nom’s thought process as scum.

aldus on the other hand jumped onto me right after the wagon had shifted from me to noms, which looks even worse because based on the gamestate either me or noms were going to be lynched so naturally he wouldn't want his partner lynched. the only thing giving me pause is, why didn't he try harder to save his partner.

hmm i wonder if this is possible distancing? that's the vibe i get from these on a reread

hi nom!
when's the last time i actually played with you?

pedit sigh

you said hi to me twice, suspicious....
also I think it was in venrob PYP

i was feeling enthusiastic about playing with you again

heartwarming response, aw...
VOTE: Alduskkel

bad gut feeling

I let my heart guide me
my heart was like "this post stinki"
so I voted the stinki post

yeah the more i'm reading early game the more those posts look like early distancing considering aldus doesn't really acknowledge it nor does noms really push aldus.

[Alduskkel]

also today is probably massclaim day i think

why today?

[GeorgeBailey]

So Aldus, I think you should probably hammer now. A flip is kind of what's needed to progress things.

[GeorgeBailey]

And what do you mean by today is massclaim day? I think everyone than can claim, has.

[skitter30]

I'm kinda wishful thinking that if one of u lot is some kind of pr i can probably take you out of the lynchpool since i'm not townreading any of you that strongly. Like if i were very confident about even one of you it would make me feel better about the gamestate overall

And in the event we go to lylo i'd rather avoid the possibility of a lastminute lolclaim that will need to be assessed

@quag i kinda just think that tonewise aldu is probably town. He kinda feels ~earnest~ and like he believes what he's thinking.

I'm kinda feeling like this game kinda needs a quag flip tbh

[Alduskkel]

Ehh... Quag already claimed VT though. And honestly I think any non-VT claim in lylo will just make it

easier

to assess who's scum and not harder.

It probably won't matter though because this should end the game
VOTE: Quagsire.

[Looker]

also today is probably massclaim day i think

why today?

Because she's scum

And what do you mean by today is massclaim day? I think everyone than can claim, has.

1-shot Ascetic PGO Treestump Goon
Two of those are correct

[Quagsire]

And what do you mean by today is massclaim day? I think everyone than can claim, has.

i already claimed vt so

I'm kinda wishful thinking that if one of u lot is some kind of pr i can probably take you out of the lynchpool since i'm not townreading any of you that strongly. Like if i were very confident about even one of you it would make me feel better about the gamestate overall

And in the event we go to lylo i'd rather avoid the possibility of a lastminute lolclaim that will need to be assessed

i kinda wish you hadn't said this because now it opens up the possibility of scum fake claiming a pr. like why would you assume that scum wouldn't just claim a pr?

[Quagsire]

It probably won't matter though because this should end the game

VOTE: Alduskkel

GG, skitter

On a side note: I'd hate to be you if you're town. Decisions, decisions.

Also, on another side note: What was the basis of killing GeorgeBailey? To create WIFOM and make me vote skitter? Or to create WIFOM/exploit the fact that I called skitter scum? I'm curious.

[Looker]

Live by the "Follow the Skitter", die by the "Follow the Skitter"

[Alduskkel]

why do you say GG skitter if you think skitter is town enough to immediately vote me?

[Alduskkel]

also what's my motivation to kill GB

I feel like if you were town you would be more concerned about losing to skitterscum

anyway unless you plan to unvote I hope skitter gets in here soon to confirm which one of you two is scum (you unless I've been massively misled)

[Alduskkel]

if i'm scum don't i just kill you and walk into day 4 with two people who townread me?

As it's currently almost 3am and I'm on mobile and on the verge of passing out, the full setup, events, and all the PTs will be made public when I wake up. Will also update the OP tomorrow.

Thank you everyone for playing, I hope the game was fun. An extra thanks to the replacements, and a shout-out to my backup Formerfish for helping out behind the scenes.

The thread is now unlocked for post-game discussion.
