I don't think there's a guaranteed victory here at all, but its close to that. I think treating ES and trfel as 'probably town' and putting them on the back end of the lynch list and then just working our way through it, although simple and kinda boring, gives town the best odds of winning here (unless something changes with ES or trfel that gives us a good solid reason to suspect one of them).

So the lynch list is (in order of how likely we are to be able to lynch people):

Shapelog/koshi
Eywa/Pandain/me
rayn/grack
ES/trfel

obvs hf isn't in there.

We have to get more than half way down this list with only mislynches before we can lose, and that's with successful mafia kp each time. The only possible issue there is a grack/rayn scum team and that looks incredibly unlikely to me.

Alright then if we're never lynching grack put him with hf and we have an even bigger chance of winning.

I'm shit at figuring out roleclaims and what they mean, mostly they just confuse me, so in every game I play I have a similar conversation to this at some point. If y'all are sure grack is absolutely confirmed town then yeah I'll go along with it just out of ignorance.

We know there are three blues. HF is one. That means if everyone who has a blue claims and we have three total, those three people are confirmed. Because the host has confirmed there are three. Does that make sense?

Grack is not confirmed "yet" per se. But once the last blue is revealed (it always happens sooner rather than later) we will be able to know he is either telling the truth (3 claims total) or someone is lying (more than 3 blue claims)
That's also why if you or kelsier or shape or eywa are blue you should claim. Because you will be the last confirmed town and there's no way we will lose.


This does make sense actually yeah. So the last blue needs to claim to confirm grack really, but he's most likely town just on the back of his claim(s). OK.
I don't know why I have this feeling about grack. I think its irrational paranoia, but the gut feeling is still there even though it really looks like he's town.

Of course, if we do end up just lynching our way through that list it doesn't matter one bit either way cos we're probably gonna win anyway.

In my opinion, Eversince is practically confirmed town. Jock, Rayn, and Trefel are 98% town.

Grack and Ewya are null to slightly town.

Keslier and Shape are likely mafia.

why is jock on your list of mafia candidates?


He's not my first pick at all. He's just a possibility. I'm saying if we lynch through these 4 we will never lose.

Okay which of those other three can he be mafia with and why?


If Jock is mafia Eywa probably is.
Almost certainly not with Kelsier. Also unlikely with shape, though I won't rule it out. I would rather lynch Trfel than believe a Jock-Kelsier team.


I don't know how anyone could even entertain the possibility of me being mafia with either shapelog or kelsier to be honest. I null read shapelog for a while but I've been pushing hard to lynch him since yesterday.

You clearly have never read any of my mafia games.

It's not about Town cred, it's about logic, aggression, and bandwagoning town.

I dont think people change, at least people dont change what's working, and that has been working for pandain as mafia.


With pandain:

Eywa/jock most likely. Jock's posts have been less and less impressive since slam flipped. I haven't really thought about it to be honest so don't want to rule anyone else out yet. Everything is open.

I can agree with jock being mafia with pandain. I will check if that makes sense thread-sentiment-wise after i have slept (still havent after night shift). I heavily disagree with Pandain+Eywa combo.


I can see where this line of thought comes from, although I genuinely had the feeling day 1 that Pandain was buddying me pretty hard, which would be massively unsubtle if we were both mafia, no?

I dont remember who was buddying who or if it even can considered as buddying. Idk why that would be unsubtle, people can agree with each other regardless of alignment.


iirc he townread me almost immediately. I'm going off memory though so check that if you think i'm wrong.

This game is a meta goldmine for hf.
This is what happens when he can't do all his usual stuff.

This game is fucking boring lol. I'm confirmed town and the 2 people everyone thinks are mafia are literally modkills and there was no night kill. I couldn't think of a more mundane scenario.

So I'll live in a world where there's a chance mafia grack made a play, however unlikely, just because it's more fun to. I don't currently think he's mafia but it's whatever. It's fun!


The thought of a grack/rayn mafia team here still amuses me greatly. I'm like, completely sure that it isn't the case but man that would be some extreme mafia play.

The problem I have with hfs line of thinking here is that the game isn't boring because town are doing boring stuff. The boring stuff is.most likely cos mafia are afk/lurking. If you try too hard to force an entertaining game town will lose because you're looking for things that probably aren't there and distracting from what is basically the most reasonable strategy for a town win.

It doesn't really matter what the most fun mafia pairing would be if its most likely just the afk players.

Its ok I can explain it to you.
When i said that to hf, its because he is refusing to go along with the idea that mafia is afk because that would be boring, hence he was pressuring you on day 1, and now pandain. His strategy for the game is to make it interesting by finding reasons to accuse people of being mafia instead of looking for the most likely mafia.

When I said it would amuse me if you and grack were mafia, I wasn't trying to pressure you and grack, I wasn't trying to convince anyone else that you guys are mafia, I just meant it would be kinda funny if it were true.

If you want you can try and convince me that those two things are the same, or you coudl admit that that isn't the case at all...

Like literally every single time I make a comment that isn't serious you come in and question me about it as if I jsut wrote a massive essay on why i think its the real truth.

It was a jokey fucking comment. No -one thinks you and grack are mafia, which is why I said that.

OK I'm changing how I play right now for the rest of the game.
No more jokes that can be misinterpreted.
.

WELCOME TO JOCKMCPLOPBOT v1.0


Current mafia reads:
Koshi 76% mafia probability
shapelog 60% mafia probability

Current strategy:
lynch shapelog, followed by:
koshi
pandain
eywa

Can somebody explain this post?

Bottom is mafia lynchers. Top is mafia reads I assume.

Grack blue
Rayn also blue?
