Echo Bay Grits SEO [game over]

[MagnaofIllusion]

Hi. I’ve been vaguely following along watching the carnage. Not planning a full read until Monday best case.

[MagnaofIllusion]

Ok now that I am at a computer I can elaborate a bit.

Real talk - I'm not doing the full re-read treatment until after today ends. There is a non-zero chance that wingedcatgirl shoots me today and I'm not putting in effort if the end result is just that. Sorry but not sorry.

I will say if I'm alive at nightfall I'll be reading into three things ...

1. The quality players on the dead list who got shot, especially early. For example no fucking way should Gorkington have been killed that early and if that killer is still alive they need rope ASAP.
2. Posting by the two flipped scum and associations with living players (specifically in the direction of dissuading shots their way or in the BP scum's case discouraging a second shot).
3. The whole Pricks fiasco and the reasons or lack thereof for people joining up. That sort of mutual protection strategy greatly benefits scum to be part of that crowd in the early part of the game when lots of shots are flying.

Parting thoughts ...

Taly's last post screams "Caught for the wrong reason". I mean it is clear she'd not see the case on her regardless of her alignment and spent way to long stressing how "I'm clear and logical" she is which doesn't mean Town especially in Multiball. Also the whole "Oh, now I'm worried about scum in the Townblock" also reads bad since it is pretty clear that group has probably at least 2 to 3 scum hiding inside. If I do die before Night I'd like her head mounted on a pike.

Aside from her off the top of my head I'd also like theworst dead sooner rather than later. Mostly gut at this stage but I will revisit if I make it past Night.

So shoot away Wing ... this is all you are seeing from my slot beforehand.

[MagnaofIllusion]

Also I'd like to apologize to Taly for misgendering him.

Still think he reeks of scum.

[MagnaofIllusion]

MoI:
If you want to have a little info about who shoot whom, there is somethink in my iso, not up to date, the worst people were killed early, but most of them (except not_Mafia flipped town)

Thanks but if I get to the point where I need to put in effort I want to see those shot happen organically. So while a list is helpful a read through would be much moreso.

[MagnaofIllusion]

I think the shot is best spent on the low-post still alive players, so we can actually play a game on D2 with a manageable number of players. Yes, this is actually pro-town.

Nope. The number of shots on "low content players" this game have hit far more Town than scum ... that much I know from my half eye on the thread. This is the kind of posting I would expect to see from scum ... a position that on the surface level looks like it is ProTown but benefits scum much more. It is clear that whatever remaining scum we have are active (or active lurking, more on that in a second). So this looks like scum LAMISTing while trying to deflect away from their own potential demise.

Also Winged is probably scum as well. Look at her ISO. That is the textbook definition of active lurking. Enough posts to not get tagged as a lurker but not a bit of actual gamesolving. Scum reads outnumber Town by a factor of about 1.5 and no reasons given (but they could be given on request). Way too much asking for permission to shoot in survivalistic manner. Constant "Oh, I'm busy / away from a computer / whatever can I just shoot or do I have to give content?" Hell I've given more insight into the game-state since replacing in with minimal reading than she has supposedly playing this entire game. She's likely scum.

Good shots pool from me pre-full read - Taly, Ico, WingedCatGirl, maybe theworst.

[MagnaofIllusion]

MoI are you still around?

Not at a computer. I am pretty much stuck with phone posting during daytime hours which limits the scope of my responses. Why?

[MagnaofIllusion]

Good shots pool from me pre-full read - Taly, Ico, WingedCatGirl, maybe theworst.

Taly as #1 in your shotpool--why?

I have a few things running around in my head about Taly

Have you read my posts? Serious question.

[MagnaofIllusion]

BTW anyone who wonders why I am scumreading the Pricks in general and Taly in specific should read Thing Mafia.

Take note of how many scum were either instrumental in leading the coordinated Town night action plan or were “good Protown players” on dutifully following said plan and harshly punishing those Town players who didn’t comply with “Town” dictated plans.

Hint - it is 100% of the scum who lived past Day 2.

[MagnaofIllusion]

I am.

Why would you even trust me saying that in any way? Like 100% I’d say it as any alignment.

[MagnaofIllusion]

Scum reads outnumber Town by a factor of about 1.5

Eh? Most of what you say about me being lazy is obviously factually correct, but where did this part come from?

Your 1115. Unless you want to suggest that your top section which is 1.5 times as big as the bottom section has Town reads in. Are you?

Also real talk why are the only people who seems to want to interact with me solid scum candidates?

[MagnaofIllusion]

Did the worst scum read BB? His ISO is an abomination so I don’t want to tackle it on my phone.

[MagnaofIllusion]

You may have a point, but Sando, the founder and leader of PRICKS has flipped town. Several others (Chickadee at least) who were part of Pricks have also flipped town.

Anyway, though we need some organization rather than random shooting for Day 2, PRICKS isn't a good solution. It did not help find scum, and just led to people holding their shot forever.

Neither of those flips invalidates that Pricks was very very likely to be harboring multiple scum.

You were a member of Pricks correct?

[MagnaofIllusion]

I don't want to end the day abruptly, so before I shoot Ico does anyone have anything they want to say?

Where is the content you’ve avoided posting all this time? At this point your “I’m lazy” excuse no holds water.

[MagnaofIllusion]

Err no longer holds water stupid phone posting

[MagnaofIllusion]

Don't care.

Then stop wasting every other players time and do what people have been waiting days upon days for you to do.

[MagnaofIllusion]

[MagnaofIllusion]

...and the apathy level is going up again...

Of course. It is scums best interest to disconnect Town from the game and Town left the last shot in scum’s hands. Don’t personally buy the AtE you are laying on here but you probably know that given my read on you.

Vax

- are you going for a “Jungle Town” tell for not knowing this is mutilball? Because it isn’t working. Even I know we have multiple faction flips and I just sorta browsed prior to my replace in.

[MagnaofIllusion]

Stop being pedantic Stefan. It is a bad habit you picked up. That’s how I refer to the catch-all for attempting to “Town tell” by putting out information into the thread that shows you are ignorant of the scum side of the game. I personally don’t ascribe to it actually being aTown tell at all.

[MagnaofIllusion]

I've delayed the game out of sheer laziness so long at this point that I'm definitely going to be shot the moment D2 begins. So I've stopped caring about preventing this.

You all understand this is basically a scum claim, right? There is no reason Town WCG thinks she is going to be shot immediately Day 2 unless she's planning to NOT shoot public enemy number 1. She's going to draw this out to the very last second to continue to frustrate Town and then shoot someone not viewed as scummy by her / her partners if there is Daytalk. In fact I would not be shocked if there were Daytalk and this whole drawn out process is that scumteam tryng not to hit the other scum-team with the last hurrah.

[MagnaofIllusion]

I've stated the person I'd shoot, I don't have a strong idea of how many scum we would have at this point, I know I'm probably townreading scum, and I'll be most grounded with my reads starting D2 after there are NK flips and I can reevaluate interactions in D1.

Taly that's a ton of effort. Grade A and hats off.

But the above quote just turns to me and says "For a mutliball game this person who supposedly is Captain Town seems surprisingly sure he'll be alive tomorrow" and gives me this look ...

[MagnaofIllusion]

First off I'd like to say thanks xyzzy for allowing me into the game for a brief instant and then to haunt the Dead PT. I think the set-up was interesting (and probably a little scum heavy with two Serial Killers ... one probably was enough) and am curious to see your third foray. I didn't join the game initially because I didn't think I could keep up with the mass number of pages a game of this player number should have brought but the Lolkilling kept it manageable to replace into.

Congrats to the Munitions Team - overall clearly your group played the best game and deserved the win. Light in particular gets the hats off as MVP for the ballsy bus on NotMafia. I expected it would have brought you too much Town cred and attention from Grits (and the then unknown SKs) but I was wrong.

Also a tip of the hat to Gamma who was the only other scum along with Light who got a Town read from me.

Town lost the game the second Pricks was formed and scum of all flavors piled into the protection. That alone is probably why so few shots on scum actually occurred early.

[MagnaofIllusion]

5p LyLo with {Ganski and Davsto} Vs. {Ausuka and Gamma} is good for me since I could try and frame Ganski as the SK (she spewed TMI on SK early d2 and

the n1 MoI kill was clearly intended to frame me since he was gonna revise his read on me d2!)

Lol the bolded.

[MagnaofIllusion]

sorry MoI. was cool meeting you briefly. your gut read was too on point....

Good to meet you also. Feels good to know I managed to have good enough reads in 10 pages to draw not one but two kills N1.
