Good evening, everyone. Only a short post tonight, I'll give everything another read over tomorrow morning to see if I can actually figure something out.

I've pretty much started over at square one on my reads now since they were so far off to start.


If the JusticeVigi shot a townie, but was medic healed would they survive? Would the townie he shot at die?


At this point I'm taking BM's claim at pretty much face value, it at least lines up with the what's gone on so far. And above is the last question I think I need to ask before I can be relatively sure of what actually happened.

With that in mind, starting from the point of BM being Justice Vig and shooting Caller, I believe that makes ObviousOne and Rayn near confirmed town. Now this only applies 100% if the answers to the above are not: Survive, and die. If those are the answers than there's some chance for error, but I think BM would have been fairly low down a doctors save list for last night.

Caller had just used his power to execute a mafia member very publicly. I think in everyone's eyes that bought him a huge amount of town cred. I don't see him using that town cred to follow it up with a bus against another mafioso.

Alright guys just kidding we kill ObviousOne.

I threw the vote on artanis because mafia love bandwagons. Now that we've gotten one, it seems pretty obvious to me that people we should be looking for are on the lower parts of the bandwagon list. But not the last one. Given that, who we we have?

Oatsmaster ##Vote: Artanis

As a rule I usually try to lynch the 3rd or 4th person on the bandwagon. Since I was the 3rd person on the bandwagon, that leaves Monsieur Oatsmaster as a rather fishy hanger-on to the bandwagon. I already made a case on why I wanted to lynch him, but I don't see him as a threat right now. Still keep dis in mind plox.

Keirathi ##Unvote

Hmm. You want to make my life interesting, do you? 8 times out of 10 that I see this, it is a mafia trying to get town cred for not voting for obvious day 1 townie lynch. Vewy Intewesting.

Show nested quote +
ObviousOne ##Vote Artanis[XP]

Ah, and we get to the core of the matter. This guy has done nothing but throw ambivalency around. Yet now he's so sure that he will hop-on the bandwagonn. If you were really not sure about this and you were town, you'd be like "HANG ONS GUYS I THINKS HE MIGHT BE OKAY" and then watch helplessly as the bandwagon gains infinite momentum and lynches innocent townie #1. But nope, instead you're like "but wait guys i read his meta and came out with some random conclusions that don't actually mean anything because meta is stupid especially among players that have played this game more than three days." I actually went ahead and read his filter for those games, and I think that your conclusions are bullshit that can easily be construed as whatever you want.. Given that he explicitly stated that as mafia he would be "next time" more involved, but that he simply got lost due to large amount of posts, do you expect any credence that his behaving similar to the previous game is any true indication of his alignment this game? No. You shouldn't. And it's a dumb reason for going on a dumb bandwagon, but it makes you look nice! VOTE THIS GUY.

yamato77 ##Vote Artanis

I'm fairly satisfied that yamato is town as it stands. I'll still jump on him in a heartbeat but I don't think he's mafia.

Restraining Order ##Vote: Artanis

Strangely enough, I think RO is town. Are you gonna get a reason for it? Nope.



Those posts were at the very end of his life, and I don't think he had any reason to believe he would die. It seems to me that if Caller was actually mafia, then Oats and Rayn have to be town because he immediately started pushing for both of them to be lynched. He certainly had the town cred to be able to force either or both of their lynches after the Artanis kill. I don't see how him bussing another mafia member could be a valid plan at that point after VE died as well. They'd have to be trying to go for a mislynch.

Obviously if BM is not the Justice Vigi this all falls apart, so if someone else is the justice vigi, I think it would help the town.

The other thing is Caller's quick mention of RO at the end of that quote. If he had known he was going to die, I would think that he would put a mafia as a "not sure why, but I think this person as town" to try and WIFOM a mafia into looking a bit townier. But because he didn't have any reason to think he was going to die, I would assume that RO is town, and that Caller was trying to make himself look better by calling someone who is possible to mislynch for sure town for when they flip later.

The last bit can certainly be flipped on its head over and over with WIFOM, but in my head that's the most plausible solution because they're the choices that maxmize the reward and minimize the risk in my mind.

Bill Murray claimed Justice Vig, and that he shot Caller last night. BM is still alive today, and Caller is dead.

Yamato claimed that he tried to pick JV too, but got vanilla.

Keirathi I went a little through your filter and it looks pretty good so I'm excluding crazy play from your side for the moment.

I find your reasons for not suspecting MZ lacking though, it seems to come down to this post:

On April 08 2013 13:56 Meapak_Ziphh wrote:
we can wifom what scum want us to think by the gonzaw kill from here till kingdom come but we won't get anywhere. Ultimately we need to stick with artanis as he has been consistently scummy and pushed by a now confirmed townie.

@Yamato. I'm really tired with you calling me scum and never backing it up, come up with some reasons or shut up.


It would have been too risky for scum to do the opposite of that (use wifom to defend artanis), and too unproductive to not say anything. What scum wants first of all is to look good. That's what I'm holding against OO especially, and this quote by MZ can fit into the profile and isn't the argument for thinking he's scum, but isn't an argument for assuming he's town either.

Lol. Vivax totes scum.

Town Vivax = crazy, invested, doesn't care how he posts, doesn't give up random stupid ideas lightly and has lots of random stupid ideas
Scum Vivax = semi sane, lazy, drops crazy ideas, tries to look normal

Vivax not reading = lazy
Vivax proposing different lynch # picks to look active and drops it when blasted about it = scum
Vivax not showboating about being right on lynch # pick idea = scum
Vivax trying to make sense = scum

Sn0 calling Vivax worst mislynch ever = protecting scum buddy

GG town. Sheep Geript ftw

He's totes not town. Green check is irrelevant. Lots of possible answers for that.

I do like geript's analysis of Vivax' meta, to an extent.

If people are really opposed to killing sinani because of this check, Vivax is a good substitute.

M_Z is non-negotiable. I don't care how much these idiots believe in their reads.

Yoyomato plz tell me when Sn0 got invested in Nmm38. I'll give you a hint read day 3 when his scum buddy was heavy on the block. Then read his other games... Tell me when he got invested... You kno bc it was way before then.
