That's pretty much the only reason he's voted for me, if he really thought I was mafia I'm sure there would be a lot more evidence that proves it. Yes and no. I mean, I don't feel that the last post from him put any sort of strong case on you. To me your conclusion that he was town was totally legit, it's one I reached myself. I don't find the timing to be that persuasive. The thing is, I do feel like your weird play in the last day (your bait with explanation, or late explanation for something that is different than your prior explanation, your non responsiveness to defenses yet asking me to defend, your summary vote post) felt like weird plays. I keep using the word weird because it's like, if you are lying about the bait, why would you? If you did miss my responses, why would you? Maybe I should see that as weighing for you as town. In other words, by that logic I raised a second case on you that I do not feel is strong, so Valenius shouldn't have switched his vote (because my case was not compelling enough). I think this is actually the best post you made tonight and if anything is going to convince me it's probably that. I'm going to reread my case on you and decide how I feel on it. | ||

In other words, I can see Valenius making the vote swap play to win me over. But, I don't think he could have reliably expected to be able to make that play because it needed you to make a post that was weird/scummy enough to justify him changing his vote and me seeing you as scum. That's the thing though, his reason to vote for me wasn't even a new post. It was a post I made on day 2. If you're really 100% certain for voting for me then all I have to say is gg. We fucking lost. | ||

Although you felt more scummy, I have to conclude he is mafia based on that post and I will not bother trying to convince him at this point. I really wish I had not said this. On the one hand as a town in LYLO the only way I can win is to convince the town voting on me not to. I did accomplish this (because you have moved your votes to each other). But, I indicated strongly to Valenius that I would vote for theDragoon so it makes it very tempting to swap onto me. I guess from that I have to conclude that I can't really consider Valenius' swap onto me as indicative of towniness, even if it had a town result. Time is about up. I am certainly not sure about the vote, it'd be nice to end the day strong but I'm not there. gg either way and well played to both sides | ||

marvellosity 02-18-2014 10:49 AM ET (US) I wouldn't worry too much about implicating yourself upon someone's death. People don't actually tend to read that much into it and you can always dismiss it as wifom. If Robik is suspicious of you a lot AND you think he might be blue, he seems like a great choice for a shot. At the day 2 start: raynpelikoneet 02-19-2014 10:47 AM ET (US) Remember that mafia kills people usually for two reasons: 1) People who are strong analysts or on the right track 2) people they think are blue raynpelikoneet 02-19-2014 10:27 PM ET (US) I am not saying anything you must absolutely do. I am just saying if you want to analyze the situation fully remember that mafia has ALWAYS a reason why they kill people they do. Now the reason can be whatever, but it's still there, noone just randomizes the night kills. | ||

http://www.quicktopic.com/50/H/N2cxFAYK3hr Some minor notes on my play and thoughts- > I breadcrumbed being vanilla town in my first post. As Balla pointed out, this serves no purpose, but I felt clever at the time. lol. > I felt posting this in the forum would be a mistake, but one reason I hesitated on n1k0 is that if I was mafia and saw one player call another player an asshole, I would go out of my way to keep those players in the game together so they could hurt the town atmosphere. So, I thought mafia would be less likely to vote Cavalinho > I don't know if my vote analysis n1 was wrong or people just played weird. If that was wrong I would appreciate knowing it > I am pleased with my play to the extent that I got a lynch off of me day 1 + 4. I don't think I my reads or leadership were that great, even if I did end up on the right person two times out of four. > I think theDragoon played pretty consistently well throughout the game and would have probably won if his post voting me were done after Valenius went to sleep or with more backing. I don't think it was a terrible post, but I was so desperate that it was the only thing I could use and I just tried to get as much mileage out of it as possible. This was my first forum game and a mixed experience for me. I was hoping that with 24 hours between posts, the game would provide more numerical analysis of votes, posts, phrasing, etc. But even with time I feel I often didn't post things quite how I intended, and there was very little analysis of that sort. The constraints of forum mafia really came across in the last day... the brief period where all three living players were on at the same time was invaluable to me in moving away from my prior scumread on Valenius and convincing him I was town. I really feel that if our times hadn't lined up just so it'd probably be over. I'll welcome any postgame comments from anyone on my play, I felt like I learned a lot through playing. Thanks again to all the hosts and coaches. (I edited this post cause the game is over) | ||

I like this post a lot: Up to this point, there's no scummier post than this one: On February 16 2014 16:06 theDragoon wrote: Nice, we finally got this started, all that early voting made me lol a bit. Gonna hit the sack soon, see ya'll tomorrow I don't know what this says about OnceKing's alignment, but the fact that he jumps on Amiko's post is pretty meh in my opinion. Amiko makes, what I consider to be, a good post and onceking focuses on the fact that it's long and has no content? Besides length, none of the posts really have content up to this point...I will say though that I like the fact that Onceking actually provided some conent here. Probably more towny, but still don't like this post overall: Not gonna quote the end of the page, but Cavalinho is securing himself as my top town read based off of how freely he is speaking with regard to the Amiko situation and how openly he is aligning himself with OnceKing. This doesn't mean that I think OnceKing is town, but I don't think that Cavalinho's logic would be so easy to follow if he was mafia. Should have stuck with this read | ||

Agreed. I would have early pressured based on that post alone, but NOT valenius's that you quoted in there as well. | ||
