Marketplace Mafia III - Game Over

[Harakiri]

Bah. 1 hour and I don't think anyone will show up.

VOTE: Espeonage.

[zMuffinMan]

i can vote baldy if there's enough support

i don't think you have enough town cred to cash in for that after 4425 though, nati

[Nero Cain]

I don't think I was getting on them at all. I think what they are doing is fucking stupid and my point was that is exactly why scum would want me alive

Taking the simple option of an assured Nero lynch today and going from them (especially with last night's NK and the as-of-yet-unknown N0 NK that hasn't shown up yet being a potentially night-time double-whammy) sounds more likely to get a victory than banking on town getting a mislynch today and then mislynching you tomorrow, honestly.

So...I get lynched today and the next day everyone is like "Nero flipped town, lets be cautious and reread/rethink."

vs.

"oh crap Nero is still alive, lets lynch someone else and then lynch Nero the next day"

Maybe its just me but I see a ton of scum motivation in wanting me alive 'cause as long as I'm alive no one is going to change their reads and decide they don't want me dead. Its like putting town on autopilot.

God, it was late. I was tired. Everyone was tired.

But at least I didn't have to poke people anymore.

They were all caught up in the mass of mob movements. It was strangely beautiful to watch, like the tides, as the mob would move to one side of the food court, then swiftly shift to the other side, before flowing back. I halfway expected to see small creatures left in tidal pools afterwards. But that was silly, of course; I knew the mall had a janitorial staff to make sure things like that didn't happen.

I wasn't sure where the tide would eventually crash down, and in fact, the security guards were locking up the stores and glancing meaningfully at their watches by the time it crashed down on Espeonage's head.

"It's ok, guys," Espeonage said. "I didn't really like this mall anyways."

The crowd seemed similarly indifferent.

"Good as any," one opined, looping the noose around Espeonage's neck.

"Better than nothing," another agreed, tightening the knot.

With a last burst of energy, the shopkeepers lifted Espeonage into the air and let him swing.

The security guards looked bored, but consented to let us ransack Espeonage's shop, "Dicteonaries R Us" before closing up the mall. We found plenty of things underlined in red squiggles, which at first seemed very promising because everyone knows that red is evil, but as time wore on, we eventually couldn't come to any conclusion other than that Espeonage may have murdered the English language, but he hadn't been one of the murderers of people in the mall.

Espeonage,

I would never understand these monsters.

I could understand people who desired money. Power. Fame. This, I could empathize with, understand; who didn't dream of having enough money, power -- freedom -- to tell their boss to go to hell, to do things their own way and damn the consequences?

But not this.

Not the pie.

Pumpkin pie had always been my favorite of desserts. Good, nice -- safe -- childhood memories of Thanksgivings gone by, with close friends, family, and warm pumpkin pie.

Who didn't like pie?

When pieguyn had started renting a storefront in the mall, I was overjoyed. So many of the storefronts, I didn't care for -- I didn't really need to purchase pyrotechnics at the mall, or morph my cat into anything -- but who didn't like pie? Everyone loved pie. It was one of the few storefronts I had gotten behind 100%.

And what had it got me? Some delicious pies, it was true -- I had ordered a dozen for Thanksgiving alone -- but it had also gotten me a dead piemaker, and that was crossing the Rubicon.

pieguyn,

[Lord Mhork]

What the hell happened with the Auctions?

[Harakiri]

Aaaaagh

[Harakiri]

Eagles scum and I suspect were looking at least 3 scum on the Espeon wagon.

[Lord Mhork]

Before we do that, I wanna know what happened to all the actions. Did anyone get blocked on anything? LB, you're our last remaining big sixer. Please say you won something neat.

[Harakiri]

Let's just say I've never been so mad at myself as I am at myself right now.

[BBmolla]

I still think Voided is scum

[Nero Cain]

Wich 3, Nat?

[1baldeagle1]

I sent all of my money to LB last night. The Esp wagon happened while I was gone, so I need to take a look at the wagon.

[1baldeagle1]

Well, atleast we now have a chance to actually lynch scum and I can tell you who to kill. I'll get to the quote walls and stuff later but the short version is that Muffin still needs death. I wouldn't mind a Voided lynch but I'm starting to wonder if I'm just tunneling a particularly dull player ala Yates-the cheating.

I don't really like pieguys trajectory on me. He goes from "Mhork makes no sense here">>>"well they are null">>>"yeah Nero is scum" And all this time the pressure was growing against me. + there was the fact that I had speculated that him/Nathana/Espy and scum on it so his scum read on me comes across OMGUSY.

Not sure what to think of PA's slot with the Gost fake looking rage.

I'd also be fine with Bald since I hate how he was ignoring my question about Mhork and his sheeping of Empcho looks suspect.

I just did I Control+F over "bald" in your ISO. You seemed like you didn't like my wagon at first, and then you null read me, to a point where I think you are townreading me because I wanted Voided dead like you wanted to and now I'm scum for the bolded reason. This is a really scummy 180 on the read of me.

uwop and BMolla are both scum. They were both scumreading each other, but they were both on the Esp wagon...

[1baldeagle1]

VOTE: Nero

I'm okay with lynching: uwop, BMolla or Nero. I feel strongly confident in all of those.

[1baldeagle1]

Votes are 6-6 even. If muffin votes Bald (I don't see why Bald would self vote/hammer), then it'd be 7-7 and someone'll have to switch to avoid NL.

I was actually willing to, but you guys lynched Esp before I got him. My wagon would have provided lots of information, especially the part where Nero scumreads me out of nowhere.

[ProHawk]

I hate this game.

home* not him.

[BBmolla]

I don't even really think uwop is scum anymore. I don't think eagle is scum. I think we're going to mislynch me and eagle and Voided will win.

And then I'll quote this
