Mini 1531 ~ Mafia Pinnipedum (Game Over!)

[kanyeknowsbest]

nah i dont think youre part of a 3man mafia team theres no way nacho would let you even go near hinting a killing role if that were the case

[The Purple Plague]

that was nacho

[kanyeknowsbest]

same difference

[The Purple Plague]

multiball is too much of a possibility and we dont have enough town left for leashing an sk (plus i wouldnt ever want to give sknacho that kind of wiggle room)

Why do you think I would claim vig in the way I did in a multiball scenario?
It confirms me as scum to the other team when I could keep my mouth shut and make myself town as hell by mislynching them.

Why would I claim vig as SK? Everyone was speculating SK at that point, and if I had tracker worries, I could have said no to massclaim pretty easily.

[kanyeknowsbest]

what is your ideal way in which today/tomorrow play out at this point

[The Purple Plague]

If we aren't on the three-man team (or a two-man one for that matter?) then we are SK, or Vig and there really isn't any reason for us to tack on the Compulsive part of our claim

Pedit:

Lynch DDD. if he ends up town, we are gonna suicide tonight, and I would prefer for town to go straight for Nati.

[The Purple Plague]

Ideal way is Selkies confirms alignment, is either town or scum.
If town, we lynch Natirasha, shoot DDD (who hasn't claimed?), lynch LLD the next day and vig whoever we have paranoia on if the game continues.

If scum, we lynch Selkies, shoot Natirasha, lynch DDD and vig whoever we have paranoia on if the game continues.

[kanyeknowsbest]

so why does mara keep screaming about suiciding. have you made it clear to her in no uncertain terms that theres no way youre doing that?

[kanyeknowsbest]

because theres p much no way in any universe youd allow that regardless of your alignment

[The Purple Plague]

If town completely and totally loses their mind this game and wants to lynch us this game day, I am willing to suicide instead of being mislynched.

[kanyeknowsbest]

:I

[The Purple Plague]

There's no way in hell I'm being mislynched today when we have a free death otherwise.

[kanyeknowsbest]

i dont believe you at all. theres no way you would not take a shot tonight and try to talk your way out of the rope tomorrow. no matter your alignment

[kanyeknowsbest]

the fact that you would pretend otherwise @ this point and have had mara cheerleading it really doesnt make me feel good man :<

Mara believes its the best option.
I believe it's a last resort.

[Selkies]

Not really, no. I was a little offended that you didn't trust I'd put the effort in because I've always put the effort in, especially with you. But that's not something that's particularly game relevant and so didn't bring it up. What do you think of the gamestate?

Trust starts with believing you're town. I've had a hard time nailing that belief down at times. I trusted you enough to follow you near the end of day 1. You were wrong, which happens. But I felt like on top of getting a lot of amorphous squinty-eyed crap from PA, you've been giving off not sure about me vibes while

at the same time

your reads and mine were converging.

[The Purple Plague]

I mean you're right that it's optimal move to take the shot and try to talk myself out of a lynch but the town needs a slap in the face if they're willing to mislynch me and I'm willing to give it to them.

I'm very grateful our reads are converging in good places. I also don't have the third scum pegged at the moment and you haven't given off your more reliable town tells, so you still sit as a possibility. I'm sure I've been sitting as a possibility (until recently) because of similar reasons.

[Selkies]

the compulsive tack on our role makes the anti-townness of it that much more potent, so I don't really see how it isn't balanced with day-talk, night posting masons and a (day-talking?) Neighborizer.

I'm p sure I've ever played a game that featured a compulsive vig. It does have some balance implications.

I sort you out and get a very solid read on you.

You keep making noises about sorting me but you never really dig in. That's part of what's bothered me.

[The Purple Plague]

That's true. I'm ready to dig in now.

[The Purple Plague]

What do you think about Kanye?

[Selkies]

My concerns about his lack of aggressive play have pretty much evaporated. :/

Masons plus neighbors tweaks a little if for no reason than that scum had various neighboring abilities in the xenologue game. But, at least neighborhoods don't appear to be the ubiquitous feature here that they were in that game.

What do you think of his push on you?
