It's just noncommittal read at a time when the whole thread was giving Koshi heat. Just looks like blending in to me. He wasn't like that in his town game. idk if this was @me or not but since it pretty much describes what I did I'll assume it is. I liked the fact that Chyz was, with pressure coming from other people, gutsy enough to get after the one person strongly defending him the whole way. Mafia just don't attack their defenders.
But I'm kinda feeling like Koshi doesn't actually care that much, and if he's not really defending Chyz that hard in the end then mafia!Chyz doesn't have that same reservation about attacking Koshi.

Currently I'm cool with a geript or Chyz lynch. I guess I'll need to read Lazermonkey and see what the fuss was about too. I kinda miss Palmar and marv and a little bit of Arty (although he's posted a bit), their names and JAT made me interested in the first place and JAT's the only one doing anything so far. Good. You will soon realize his read on lazermonkey was also fabricated bullshit and total reaching. Check out Chyz's last game where he was town. Huge difference in confidence tone and voting behavior. Have not read yet beyond skimming but I already agree with you re: difference in presentation b/t last game and this one. Lemme finish rereading and decide how I feel about Chyz's post about Koshi, but you've probably earned my vote for Chyz back.

More thoughts later cause I need to go get a haircut before all the barber shops close but I just switched my vote back to Chyz.

can that point be soon? I'd like to kill Chyz without kicking myself for not killing the guy whose filter is full of fluff trying to look useful and fishing for lynches people like, and you could help that by making yourself not that guy.

someone who wants to kill Lazermonkey please explain why, tia!
I only read his filter so I don't know the context of his posts but I don't really see anything wrong with that he's doing.

MIA for several hours but on the geript-cop-thing: I thought the cop thing was absolutely bizarre, but I'm probably predisposed to misreading it because it looked like a joke that I just didn't find funny. I can't imagine any reason besides joking that geript would post that regardless of alignment, and I don't think it merits further consideration

I will kill geript over Lazermonkey but still want Chyz
Lol boss busted me @ work probs no phone for a while. Pz

Quick check in at work, Chyz looks like newbie town instead of mafia to me. He did a big pbp analysis of Lazermonkey which reminds me of all the times I've done pbp because I thought I really had something going.
I'm also a little worried about geript lynch being too easy, idk if that will actually stay my vote though.

I'm not really sure what to do with geript. He's started trying, which increases the chances of him being town; it can make sense for a caught mafia to give up but never really does for a townie being mislynched, so the fact that he's trying to avoid getting killed is probably good all else being the same.
The problem is I still don't really know who he wants to kill. He posted a big list running through everyone in the game, concluding with a group of about six mafia/mafia-leans, and then he doesn't ever push any of them since. He's even said a couple of times something to the effect of "just go back and read me when I flip town," but I don't even know what I would go back to read, because he posted what would be a big nice convenient list to read and then didn't act on it in any meaningful way.
I think I still want to kill him, and I'm moving my vote there for now. I don't think I'm going to get fully caught up before deadline, so I'll try to look at the other possible lynches (who are they, by the way? seems like geript, Chyz, Lazermonkey and Vivax are the names that are coming up) and see which one I want the most. Right now it's geript but I haven't read the other guys one last time yet.

Ugh.
Forget I said this, I was reading Chyz town until he did that and him doing it reads frustrated town rather than mafia. I can't really see why a mafia would bother posting a huge reads list that would just leave his teammates at risk of getting caught by association if he's going to self-vote. You self-vote as mafia to end the day quicker and get people complacent with that vote, not to give them a road map for how to find your team.
As for why, I go back to that large case Chyz wrote on Lazermonkey and it rings so genuine to me. Maybe I'm just a sucker for his opening line about excessive emotional investment but I feel like it would take a stone cold liar to throw something like that out as mafia just to excuse your previous play. I know there's nothing that actually stops you from doing that as mafia, but I figure if you're making up an excuse for your previous absence, you're going to pick something that sounds plausible, which means the excuse you're going to give is deliberate and something you've thought about. Something about claiming you were "too emotionally invested for my own health" seems... out of bounds, you know? Hopefully this makes sense to someone else cause I think it makes perfect sense to me but I can't really find the words. Just seems like lying about your emotional well-being is a shitty thing to do to win a game. And I'm gonna admit I didn't actually read the case on Lazermonkey beyond recognizing that it was one of those classic confirmation bias supertrains that everybody who's ever played town enough times has taken themselves on.
And the emotional-investment thing kinda proved itself decisively when he self-voted, didn't it.
I'm not killing Chyz today and I really recommend others don't. I really wish he hadn't self-voted but I can't see how the sequence of posts of his at the end was from a mafia POV.
|
OK I guess I'll go read batsnacks instead of Lazermonkey or Vivax. I remember catching that marv said Lazermonkey was a background type player which means I'd have to read all his messages in context of the thread which means reading dozens of pages I ain't got time to read, so forget that. I remember not thinking much of Vivax either way so I'll just wait on that too.

Maybe there's something here.

Do you think TheChyz is intentionally rehashing the koshi read to gain town points?
He never actually does anything with this, either. Not only is the question fundamentally flawed, it doesn't seem to be going anywhere, and he isn't really doing anything with it. He talks some more about it but again, it doesn't really get to the conclusion "lynch Chyz" or anything. Even if batsnacks didn't horribly misinterpret what Chyz said, this wouldn't be the tenth most incriminating case on Chyz in this thread even if we took out the cases DoctorHelvetica made.
The last page of batsnacks' filter seems similarly unproductive and unhelpful. A "fuck you Chyz" and a vote, presumably for self-voting, which, as I've already argued, probably shouldn't be there because Chyz seems town. Some random mechanics/roles stuff that doesn't really matter. A couple of general "is anybody there?" type questions and, notably, no real effort to push the Lazermonkey read he was so hard on earlier.
I don't get the sense this guy cares about who we kill. Maybe it's time we make him care.

And the point isn't that no one is voting Lazermonkey or Robik. The point is you made both reads with plenty of time to push them, so if you thought they were mafia, why didn't you try to develop a case people would vote for? Why leave them as weak and easily-ignored as they were?

Do you think TheChyz is intentionally rehashing the koshi read to gain town points? He never actually does anything with this, either. Not only is the question fundamentally flawed, it doesn't seem to be going anywhere, and he isn't really doing anything with it. He talks some more about it but again, it doesn't really get to the conclusion "lynch Chyz" or anything. Even if batsnacks didn't horribly misinterpret what Chyz said, this wouldn't be the tenth most incriminating case on Chyz in this thread even if we took out the cases DoctorHelvetica made. The last page of batsnacks' filter seems similarly unproductive and unhelpful. A "fuck you Chyz" and a vote, presumably for self-voting, which, as I've already argued, probably shouldn't be there because Chyz seems town. Some random mechanics/roles stuff that doesn't really matter. A couple of general "is anybody there?" type questions and, notably, no real effort to push the Lazermonkey read he was so hard on earlier. I don't get the sense this guy cares about who we kill. Maybe it's time we make him care. ##UNVOTE: geript ##VOTE: batsnacks I already said I'm not unvoting chyz because if he is mafia and self voting and getting let off the hook for it, it's going to piss me off. So my vote is staying. If thechyz hadn't self voted I probably wouldn't have voted him. Also no one is voting lazermonkey or robik, the two people I wanted to lynch originally, so of course I'm not going to keep my vote there. Wait, so if he hadn't self-voted you wouldn't vote him. But you're voting him because you won't let a self-voting mafia off the hook? Does that mean you think he's mafia and weren't voting him because ??? or does that mean you don't think he's mafia but are voting him now because ??? And the point isn't that no one is voting Lazermonkey or Robik. The point is you made both reads with plenty of time to push them, so if you thought they were mafia, why didn't you try to develop a case people would vote for? Why leave them as weak and easily-ignored as they were? Yes, if he hadn't self voted that probably wouldn't be where my vote is. And I posted as often and as much as I could. You didn't answer the first question. Do you or do you not think Chyz is mafia? From the sounds of it you're finding an excuse to policy-vote Chyz without actually telling me what you think about his alignment.
And ok, fine, I get that, you can see my filter's not exactly long this game either. But the content of your posts is really lacking if you've been under time constraints. Someone reading this should compare my filter to batsnacks, because I've also been under time constraints like he apparently has, and the difference in our content is substantial. I can say with certainty, being in the same constraint in the same game, that I would be more focused on making my posts and votes count.

Guys, he's not even answering the straightforward question of whether or not Chyz is town. This is ridiculous. With a close vote between geript and Chyz you would expect any townie to be trying to get somewhere in reading both of them to determine which one is the better kill. Instead batsnacks is defaulting to some lame policy vote with no explanation of how his vote helps town kill a mafia, and when questioned he won't even say whether he thinks the guy he's voting for is mafia.

If we get batsnacks here and he flips scum this vote count is going to be glorious.

I lean must die on thechyz. He's who I want to vote so that's who I'm voting. If he were town it would have been easy for him to avoid being lynched today. And if he were scum it would not be easy? I will try to give some perspective. Let's say thechyz gets lynched today and he flips town. Then let's say for the sake of the argument that tomorrow, you claim scum and vote yourself in the same post. I would vote you tomorrow. Then you surely are ok if I vote you for that, right? Because even if you are town you are a liability since you aren't trying to win the game. It doesn't really matter to me what you do but I am trying to win. Then you should try not to be mislynched if you are town. Currently you are leading the votecount if I am not mistaken. So if you want to win the game as town you should show me a better target right now. You gonna unvote me if I claim scum, vote myself, and leave the thread? Because that's what got thechyz off the hook. How do you read Chyz's 3rd to last and last posts -- you know, the one where he said he was too emotionally invested in the game for his own health and the one where he ragequit -- and not obviously see that what he did has nothing to do with his alignment?
You're not even trying at this point. Boy bye

That vote by geript is weird but I'll wait for post-flip to care. He may have to switch back to batsnacks to save himself anyway.
