I can respect a moral difference of opinion on the matter. From my perspective (and as a former host of many games myself), if its in the rules, its fair game.

Ah, BC, I'll concede to you on this. My bad and I'm sorry.

Apparently I haven't read the TL Model Mafia OP all that carefully:

7. Getting yourself modkilled to help your team. Your non-majority-decided death may not be used as a bargaining chip.

I don't see an option other than Shockey.

Rayn, talk to me about your Trfel read when you get the chance.

Purely because of Chezinu's vote on Jockmcplop?

Maybe I'm tinfoiling too much, but the more I think about it, the more I think I could see it coming from mafia. Still a useful point but yeah, Chezinu is so unpredictable...


Not so much the vote itself, but the context of the vote and the implication at how much of a dick Chez would have to be to have done it.

I also wouldn't mind losing to mafia-Chez as much. Not a legit reason to not lynch him, but certainly its on my mind.

Couldn't the same be said about Trfel ("cluelessness")?

Not going to be around for the deadline, so thoughts now.

I have reasons to town-read everyone, which means that I'm reading something wrong about the game. When I look through my reads, I am certain that Chez and Rayn are town.

I cannot see Chez as mafia playing like he did, given that he was the only player to vote Jock before his series of "awful posts" on Day 1.

Like, I get that Chez is random, but I don't think he's cruel or mean enough to his scum teammates to vote him and abandon him.


Likewise, Rayn is strong town in my book. Nothing has changed on my thoughts from before, especially the post by Jock:
Rayn reads strongly town to me, both based on his filter and Jocks' filter. This is for three reasons:
1) Most players, and especially forum players, have some desire to save-face. Pride in a purest sense. Rayn set up for this lynch with reckless abandon with no attempt whatsoever to save face. His posting literally sets up to humiliate himself after the flip. Mafia Rayn would know my alignment, as well as Jock's alignment. He is a sophisticated, smart, and experienced player enough to evaluate that there was a pretty high chance of Jock dying.
2) I really like Rayn's posting right after the flip. Again, a basic desire to save face. The torment of "oh god maybe I was wrong , to *BZZZZT DOES NOT COMPUTE RAWEFWHFJ*, to full on 'jet fuel does not melt steel beams" is a very townie thought process for someone who was wrong, and who's pride will not allow him to admit that he is wrong.
3) Reading Jock's filter transparently, there is a very clear attempt by Jock to white-knight Rayn early in the game:

Why did raynpelikoneet's view change? Even if he's just joking around, if he's town, I expect him to have some perception of my alignment; whatever it is, it can't really fit into both of these statements.


INITIATE DISLIKE PILE.
Care to explain why?

@Vivax, you too?

It looks like you are being very sensitive to rayn's opinion of your alignment, and that oversensitivity has caused you to read something NAI (rayn's early prodding) as being suspicious.

Why does that make me more likely mafia? I think all players, regardless of alignment, are more sensitive to people's opinions of them.



Overdefensiveness and coming into the game immediately being worried about people's read on you is +mafia for sure.

I don't think all players play like that at all.

A big example of this is the way you assume I think you are mafia when before this post I had not said anything of the sort, just that I disliked your previous post (I mostly disliked the logic of it until this response you just made).

So the two assumptions you had made were:

1: I think you are mafia
2: The fact that you think that I think you are mafia, and Vivax's town read on you, are the most important things to you in the thread (ie you didn't respond to or quote anything else)

Both of these assumptions show a mindset that you are coming into the game with, and that mindset is something that I have often seen with scum players.


This post screams of "Jock is taking a hard and safe stance because he knows that Rayn is town". Given Jock's later posts, again, I am taking this post at face value, rather than weighing it for mindgames.

Yeah, I think its Shockey.

I cannot see Trfel mafia. I have no freggin clue how mafia busses like this:

Problem is, I don't know who to vote for It honestly feels like there is just not enough information for me to confidently scumread anyone. Jockmcplop is my best guess, though we may have to settle for a policy lynch. Gosh, I don't know

##vote Jockmcplop

May be around for a bit but likely going to sleep soon.

If you're going to bus (Trfel is effectively the 4th vote and therefore the hammer vote), how do you not go for more "cred" than that? You look so much better confidently calling Jock mafia.

Some things stick out about Shock's filter on a second readthrough:
1) Everyone alive has questioned my alignment at some point or another. Everyone except for Shock, and I find it very odd that he'd go from screaming in all caps that I outed myself as mafia in the thread to all of a sudden considering me unlynchable-top-town after the Jock flip. He never considers that it could have been a mafia v mafia lynch.
2) Shock is much more opinionated and aggressive than I first read him, when I readthrough the Day 1 lynch.
3) He left Vivax off of his end-of-night-1 read list. I had dismissed this as odd, but it's possible this is a slip, as Vivax got shot.
4) "Shock and Jock" is an excellent mafia team name.

Mafia didn't NK...

So of course he does what he thinks is best, kill Rayn so Chez nor myself can align against Hap the last mafia.


...so therefore hapa-mafia killed Rayn?

But that post by Shockey is so outrageously stupid. How do you acknowledge that mafia didn't NK and then call someone scum using a targeted NK analysis?

Hap I did consider the bolded part are you sure you actually read through the thread? the lack of reading is a big tell... Especially since mafia didn't NK and rayn who was my strongest town read gets killed... Notice how Rayn who read me town, and I read town back had at least an upper hand on the game against mafia if it came down to 2v1. So of course he does what he thinks is best, kill Rayn so Chez nor myself can align against Hap the last mafia.

There's no way for you to know that mafia didn't NK unless you read the blue part.

Unless you're mafia.
