So just to Math this out.

In this situation where a town got mislynched. Tomorrow its 5 vs 3 and mafia can win that day with a mislynch.

If lazer was lynched yesterday and he is mafia. Then tomorrow it is 6 town vs 2 mafia. If mislynch then it goes to 4 town and 2 mafia and mafia will require another mislynch and a day to win the game.

If you want to explain why mafia adds an extra day and tries to get 2 mislynches in a row with less people then go ahead.

There's a few bobs and screws left that I don't fully understand myself. That is one of them. My best guess is that you felt the bus would get you enough cred to make this argument. Had Lazer lynched Marv, Lazer would have a great chance of surviving the entire game. Same goes to a lesser extent for you and Marv on LM. It's sacrificing time for a better shot at winning at endgame.


You think mafia do all this, have an extra day make extra night kills to give town info all for vote cred, and have to get 2 mislynches.
When instead they can just get a town lynched and then win the next day by convincing 1 member of town to vote with them.

Like I said, I'm not entirely happy with the explanation, but eh. Marv not leading a lynch on mafia throughout this game would get to him, so I can see him trying, and at that point you may as well join in to add to the cred.

Basically Marv would be super screwed if he led/was part of a wagon that lynched town today if he were scum. It'd be possible to sac Marv and just go full on Palmar, but he's had a 38 page game so I doubt he'd be willing to do so.

This is all wrong and isn't how I think about playing mafia at all. As mafia I pretty much always expect to die soon. I remember Hero Mafia that Vivax brought up as some silly argument about something at some stage - go read the scumQT there and see how often I prophesize my own demise. I would *absolutely*, as mafia, put myself in a terrible spot to lynch Palmar and leave the rest of my team with only one more ML to secure between them after I die. That's basic, good strategy and probably my absolute best asset as scum is strategising.

Palmar and I basically both agree that the only way high profile players can play mafia is to try to secure as many ML as possible before inevitably dying. Me and you have talked a lot about how I think about/play scum, Artanis. You know this!

What actually happened is, I didn't want to vote Palmar to save myself, I explicitly said so, and I explicitly told people to vote for mafia instead. Fin.

It means they didn't know who the cop was.

It means they thought someone else was the cop.

I have to figure out who.

none of this makes sense, only one or two idiots at most thought that ritoky could plausibly be cop. Everyone else knew he wasn't

I see two scum wagons. What needs to be explained about this?


If they knew Robik was the cop, why keeping ritoky alive just to be auto lunched the next day?

I don't know if they knew Robik was the cop.


After his hard claim??
C'mon.

So I went ok gb im going to ask a question if you dont ask answer it within 2 minutes im going to asume your mafia.

The qeustion - what is the name of your vt role.

His answer highway ##

I looked at the flips and I think eden was the same highway ##

On page 1 the list 13 of mostly vt (1confirmed mafia) is listed where a mafia would have to go and steal one of those to answer the qeustion.

So either slam made 2 highway## vt roles or gb is mafia

I can confirm with my own role that this does not make GB mafia. Even though he is. But not for that.

Artanis (and maybe Vivax), I don't see how you can not have this guy in your team. This vote reeks of desperation... like I would *kind of*, maybe, understand it at a different stage in the game but you'd both backed off your paranoia of sl with pretty solid reasons why sl was town (beyond the obvious), namely the number of mafia that would be pushing the fakeclaim for no reason

Lazer is super reluctant to push Kelsier and I'm not exactly sure why. Esp. as Kelsier has been pushing him for a long time

Arg like I want to live in your world because that means I have been right all game. But maybe ive been wrong? Artanis seems to think so

Artanis isn't god. I mean I know my own alignment so I come from a privileged position that I can't really expect you just to take for granted, but I'm not really sure how or why GB is supposed to be town in this situation, it more looks like Artanis created a (plausible i guess) scenario and fitted the pieces in, without at least looking individually.

you know it yourself that i tried to push off palmar yesterday, when i went to bed and told people not to lynch palmar i thought that would mean town wouldn't, and leaving a Palmar who's hardpushing me alive is *so fucking stupid* if I'm mafia. And i'm not fucking stupid.

kels pushed against it with me and pushed off the Palmar lynch and has been correctly been calling me town, so I'm quite biased in favour of him.

The problem is i think i have pretty good reasons to call everyone in the middle tier town, just in one case the reasons aren't good enough
