open 841: just mafia here officer (compleated game)

[catboi]

knew he was doc

good call on not shooting skitter anyway

[Something_Smart]

which i'm sure something_smart would agree with

[catboi]

Don't mean to pour salt on the wound but think it's an instructive example. Rereading some of my older games there were times when I was too hammer averse and it made life for me a lot more difficult than necessary

[Something_Smart]

Nah it's fine. The problem was not being hammer averse it was not wanting to scumclaim because I didn't predict rapid read shifts. I'm not actually sure if I could have predicted it honestly, and it would have just looked like a throw otherwise

[Something_Smart]

So we're gonna have to bus Mena pretty hard, probably before too long. If catboi goes down before him it's terrible for us.

[Something_Smart]

It could very well end up as a 1v1 between the two of you actually.

[catboi]

hammer's there if you're around

[catboi]

oh wait mena's already voting nvm

going to snatch it in an hour or two

[Something_Smart]

I'm here but I'm pretty sure it would be an actual scumclaim lol

[Something_Smart]

Btw I really want to leave both midway and Andante alive for multiple days, the mindscrew would be incredible. But I'm fine if you want to overrule that.

[catboi]

I'm here but I'm pretty sure it would be an actual scumclaim lol

yeah, for you it's a bad move. I can ride it out and vote him

Btw I really want to leave both midway and Andante alive for multiple days, the mindscrew would be incredible. But I'm fine if you want to overrule that.

The difficulty is that if they cross confirm each other I'm not sure how likely it is people bite on the paranoia but we'll see

[Something_Smart]

Andante will not be confirmed. Midway will be but there's a slim chance he takes doctor as scum that can be exploited.

[catboi]

mmm I suppose but I don't know how likely people are to paranoia her at all

I think it depends somewhat on what cakez flips but we can talk about paths to victory after the day ends

[Something_Smart]

uhh ok

[Something_Smart]

Only possible cop slots are skitter and Datisi... and I don't feel like either of them is? If one is I guess it's more likely Datisi? Datisi is also more townread, I think.

[catboi]

I feel dumb for not checking the draft slots but also how did cakez not pick up on that at day start

[Something_Smart]

No clue. Discussion for postgame, I guess.

Honestly it's a really good thing he died before he could claim or the game would have been completely wrecked.

[catboi]

I don't think skitter is the cop at all based on play (and I don't think she'd pick it if she anticipated being a potential NK target)

dats did take cop in open 794 albeit with higher draft position. I also somewhat doubt he's cop, but it's an acceptable kill as a safety bet + is generally townread

[catboi]

At the same time if people actually deduce a kill is a cop hunt it points away from scum being in the top slots

[catboi]

my late night musing to myself is it's better to have andante around for another day to push a misflip after menalque likely dies

[Menalque]

Let’s just kill midway?

[Menalque]

I'm feeling kinda bummed out due to irl stuff, so I may be (if possible) even lower presence the next couple/few days after we get out of night

I'll check in here before I post when I am around, if you want me to vote anyone/take any angles then just tell me

[catboi]

sorry to hear that, hope things get better for you soon

[catboi]

As for the game...eh. people are trying to narrow down potential vig slots, as said this potentially ends up as a me vs you situation which is not great. There's still the hail mary cop claim on the table as a gambit - either to try to get an elim or claim it on me and lose so I possibly get cleared for it

I'm not actually sure we have a

great

path to victory, looking at it

[catboi]

I thought about it overnight and didn't come to a resolution
