I will admit, Acro's posting in response to me calling for Hapa to duel is out of place. He disagrees with me, but seemingly still believes Hapa is mafia for his own reasons. It's odd that he feels he needs to cut me off there.

Why? And why are you not answering my questions?

If you think Hapa is mafia, why do you have a problem with him dueling?

I'm not answering your questions because I don't see the utility in doing so. I laid out my reasons for calling him mafia and his response doesn't really change my mind.

It's not about being inconsistent necessarily, it's about Hapa's usual town play, which is accurately described by Hapa in the first quote.

However, in the second quote, you see a different mindset altogether, one of excuses made for the lack of scumhunting he's actually done today. Town Hapa is paranoid, aggressive with his scum reads. This Hapa is not, and is scummier for it.

Hey Keir, wanna take up your beef with Adam's stance with me?

I'm pretty sure that guy's town, and it had nothing to do with agreeing with me. Your attack in him does seem to hinge on that point, that somehow his bravado is scum motivated, which would imply that mine was too, because I did it first as you pointed out.

Honestly, I want to see Keir hang. Someone make it happen. Sylencia is another one I could live without right now. My null reads from earlier have returned to the thread and done fuck all to make me think they're townie. Time's a wastin'

Also, for the record, I am somewhat less interested in seeing Hapa die at the current moment, as for thrawn. Thrawn is, at least, too fucking popular of a lynch choice at the moment for me to be comfortable with his death. Hapa started out similarly but there's some stuff both have done that make me doubt my read a bit.

Still keeping a watchful eye on you two. And Alderan with his horrid list post that was neither organized nor coherent.

"Not seeing town motivation" is not the same as "seeing scum motivation". A point I learned well lately. You'll have to do better than that to justify a red read on Adam, Keir.

To look townie later in the game?

I don't see it. Just because he won't have to back it up doesn't mean it doesn't have town motivations.

And as I asked earlier, if this is your argument, why dies it apply to him and not me ?

Despite my reads on the two of you before this, I will say that this was a truly horrid decision.

Going to have to sit on this for a while.

What I fail to see the town motivation in here is Adam wanting to cut off all discussion about the read in general. Keir's last point he made was actually a salient one, that Adam professing his own towniness over his actions is a scummy thing to do. I really don't want to lynch him now that I understand his thought process about this read, because while I initially disagreed, it seems more likely now that this might be the case.

I don't think a town Adam has as little forethought as to make a decision like this one and duel someone on a whim. While I proclaimed that I would duel my scum reads, I never intended to do so unless I felt like it was necessary to secure a lynch, which is not how I think the situation was playing out today, lest I would have done so myself. This action is quite anti-town.

However, it does make a lot of sense if Adam is mafia, because this has pro-mafia written all over it. Over-aggressive, OMGUS, and discussion haltering in nature. Also, while he's putting himself on the line, he's doing so IN LINE WITH THREAD SENTIMENT, which was that Keirathi was mafia, and Adam was the town. Just like in Nomination, mafia are wont to do things that seem risky and townie, so long as the real risk is low.

The only reason I honestly thought Adam was town before this was because his mafia reputation is super easy to catch and lurky as fuck. I don't know how to read him now, but I think he's a better lynch than Keir, simply for the act of dueling him right now. If he's town, it was a colossally stupid thing to do, and it doesn't make me any more convinced that Keir is mafia, nor has he done a whole lot of in-depth analysis to prove this point.

##Vote: Adam

How was this horrible?

I think hes scum, he's suspicious of me (but not directly calling me scum).

Half the town thinks hes scum, half the town has me null or worse.

It should provide a wealth of information, if not a scum death.

This is exactly the opposite of a "wealth of information"

What you did was neuter the normal "day period".

Now it's like the retarded end of day period where everyone's picking a wagon, only there hasn't been NEARLY ENOUGH discussion on these wagons to make either of them particularly attractive.

I did not mean RIGHT NOW.

Like, not at all. This was bad timing to do so.

If I really wanted to see him lynched, I would have dueled him myself, but the proof isn't there, and his responses to my prods are townie responses, not scummy ones.

Yet you didn't have a problem jumping on one instantly, even after declaring that you were going to sit on it for awhile?

Yeah. OK.

What I quickly realized was that you're more likely mafia than town for doing this.

That's what that post you're trying to bury says, you know.

Not necessarily to look townie later, but that he gets to use the argument "Look guys, Im town because I did something abnormal!"

The difference between you and him is that you aren't in here making that argument for yourself to buy town cred. Other people have made it for you.

If someone else had said "I think Adam is probably town because he was willing to propose his own unique idea rather than just blending into the town sentiment" I would have probably agreed with them. But for Adam himself to say it triggers my paranoia reflex.

I'm not burying shit. Its right there for everyone to see.

My mafia play is lurky and passive, its right there in Hero mafia for everyone to see. If you think this is my mafia game, you're delusional.

That is literally the only point in your favor right now, Adam. The only one.

The only point in my favor is that i'm playing completely opposite to my scum meta?

MMM GEE, SOUNDS LIKE A PRETTY GOOD POINT TO HAVE IN MY FAVOR.


It's only a free-pass for so long, dude. At some point you have to judge people independent of their meta, which is what I'm doing. Your play here is mafia-motivated, as I've clearly outlined. You're not even arguing that part, you're arguing that you're somehow confirmed town because you aren't playing passive, which lets me in on the psychological mindset you have. You're concerned here with proving that you're town, not with proving that Keir is mafia, and that is exactly what Keir accused you of before.

is this the townie response? he buddies you and puts words into adam's mouth. (afaik adam never actually directly tried using that logic to give himself townie points... there is only keir's accusation that that was what happened)

Now that my internet is recovered:

I fully support this duel between Thrawn and Keirathi. Thrawn is taking ownership of his reads, something I mentioned yesterday, I respect that.

That case against me was god awful, stinks of nothing-scum-case. It does nothing to illustrate why i'm scum, only that I was using logic that shows I think i'm town and everyone else should think it too.

So let me get this straight, you now think I'm mafia, too?

Hm. Okay, we'll see about that.

If you really think Keir is mafia, I expect some form of analysis that isn't "I think he's mafia because he thinks I'm mafia" when I wake up tomorrow. Otherwise my vote will be well-placed.

I am not as interested in seeing Keirathi die now, regardless of Adam's flip. I disagree with Acro there completely. The correct conclusion to come to here is that Adam is the better lynch of the two, as I outlined. No matter what Adam flips, Keir was legitimately hunting him as mafia, I believe.

We could treat it like Nominations from last game.

Both people scumhunt other people and we choose the least believable after the fact.

Let's do it.

Oats, I know you play your own game and listen to no one else during mafia, but right now our best course of action is to not start making accusations when we have no way to back them up.
