TTT and DP abstaining sticks out.

VE wagon should be goated judging by the names of it.

I'll stick to the underdog wagon.

Ideally on one of the goats of the VE wagon.

That should rile em up

Hi. I read the thread while in bed and so I'm caught up.

Vote is currently split between VE and Chez, with VE set to go down.

I don't have anyone else I'd prefer to lynch, but I don't think these are great lynches. Feels LAL. Basically, both players are off, but assuming differences in play is due to alignment shift with no underlying mechanistic explanation is dumb. I've seen VE as scum, and it didn't look like this. I'm actually darker on VE now since I last mentioned him, because I think his responses have been nothing at all, but I still don't feel great about it.

I think Chez is a better lynch. VE is playing rubbish as either alignment, but I see this as NAI. Chez however isn't engaged in his shitposting and that seems like a red flag to me. He's offered zero insight and has been half-hearted in his provocation. He hasn't bargained or given cryptic clues about the game state. He also hasn't adapted to the ban on his seal. I believe last time he started using filters or something? Normally, he is galvanised by a sadistic need to lure people into his cryptic BS. This game, it feels like he's playing solitaire for show and doesn't actually want us to come and play.

Maybe this sparks some more activity. Maybe useful one this time.

Sleep well all.

ve basically basically told the town to go fuck themselves so don't see why anyone can say that's not a good lynch.

So my thoughts currently are that DP is likely town. I have less of a town read on Vivax but some of his posts have been so absurd i don't think it can be from a scum so less likely but town.

Rayn has been okish imo and has some similar opinions that i have so i would say green if pressed.

Marv has been somewhat passive so i would have him as dark grey if that makes sense. He has some good comments at points but i would expect that from him from either alignment.

Jacob is grey as well but im leaning more on the green side he seems to have at least intrest in lynching someone at least.

Chez has been useless

Koshi has been useless as well i would be fine with him out.

VE has been extremely useless and i see no posts with intent to try and figure out peoples alignments i think he is likely scum. He has one post where he says chez ill be watching you which comes off as unauthentic to me i would like to lynch him. I would most like to lynch him at the moment.

There are other people in the game too but i don't have opinions yet.

im voting ve

Why VE?

He seems like the kind of player who enjoys playing scum. In Endures I, he blatantly led the mislynch D1 in all caps, reveling all the way. Like I get that he hasn't been active, and has failed to confirm himself town which (for reasons I'm unaware of) is apparently something he does a lot.

But am I wrong to expect him not to cower or coast as red?

I think this town against town. Still not sure about V, he is acting differently but I think it's because of some privat shit, so no reason for red flag. And Dp seems quit different as well then the last games

Happy bday LS!

DP seems on edge at times but I think he has treated me very fairly.

TTT with the best friend in the room on the other hand raised a red flag in a moment where he assumed I was vulnerable to look for allies, and didn‘t do much with it at all.

Chezinu I don‘t know wtf he is about with his crypticness but he can get launched today for all I care.

Obvs VE hasn’t done anything, but I’m not gonna vote someone I can typically read pretty okay just because I can’t read them right now

On August 28 2023 00:17 marvellosity wrote:

Depends, are you going to continue to be annoying? (That’s rhetorical)

How to explain… VE can vary anywhere between 0 and 100 as either alignment depending on how he’s feeling or what’s going on irl or whatever factor you like.

Koshi… he was quiet last game but his read on you I just agreed with. And he’s not like VE, he’s more consistently the same Koshi regardless.

It’s not the niceness that disturbs me. His vote is on someone who is suspicious of the other person he’s suspicious of, based on a rule he’s warning his vote target that people take seriously (although he doesn’t but also does) except no one else is taking it seriously.

As soon he gets pressure for his shitfight he drops it.
So in his head Vivax was being an idiot to just fuck with him? And that makes Vivax mafia?
Don't buy it. He went over the top way too fast.

After that DP does nothing.
So really activity is the only reason to not lynch him.

Him fucking up the thread and misreading obvious things would be a good reason to lynch him.

On TTT, i think his questions are smarter this game. Like in his own way it looks to me like he is actually trying to solve something. Before restart in one of my last posts i found this shit i didn't remember who posted it (when VE voted for TTT):

Like this "looks smart" but actually those are very garbage questions with no intention to solve anything. He couldnt even see how possibly asking DP about TTT meta would result in anything...

It's like, about a light year from this game (and games before) to me. He might have learned from mistake, but for now i doubt it at least much enough to not vote him.

Catch up post:




I like this post, particularly the the marv and jacob reads as they align with my own thoughts, as others have mentioned perfection looking good as town this game.




I think this is a good point. but I have some issues with TTT this game I think.

Generally I would expect Mafia!TTT to still have good points, to seem coherent and logical and to ask questions that are reasonable and pertinent.

The difference is that as Mafia they fail to lead to anything productive or execute a scumhunting agenda.

In endures 1 and 2 TTT was clearly pushing a scumhunting agenda, and in these past two starts I haven't seen that from him really at all.

I think the attempted trap on Vivax was something I saw him use on marv in Endures 1 so that is a potential town trait.

I also think he would have improved his play from feedback from last game, so yeah, not green on TTT which is not really something I enjoy.



DMB why do you mention that it is town vs town but that we are both acting differently from our town games?

it's kind of contradictory.



I think Vivax is looking really town at this point so that is good. I also like using DMB as a barometer for Vivax, cause I feel like she is hyper aware of him and would call him mafia if there was literally any reason to, as both alignments.







+ Show Spoiler +


Interesting to see how this turns around.



Found it. Yeah this does look pretty bad, the question is, can VE do that as town?






This post is sus as fuck.

Why is he checking the temperature of the thread before he votes? Like if you are town you know this motherfucker is wrong about you and trying to kill you. The self awareness of how he is being perceived in the thread strikes me.




Hate this, town doesn't do this.



He strikes me as confident and cocky in general, I don't think this is a good enough reason to not consider him.

Last game Mathenalin seemed far more agentic and proactive in forming reads, this game it seems like he is coasting and answering prompts. Almost like he is hedging his reads.




I dropped it before I got any pressure.

The post you are quoting from marv is AFTER i said he was probably town.

looks like you also don't read properly.



Does nothing.... Dude I was fucking dragging a dead thread along, it was fucking painful as fuck.




He will seem smart as either alignment, its if he does anything with it that matters. In this case, hasn't done anything, so while agree that he seems better this game, I also don't think he has demonstrated he is green at this point




Blegh, like last game he was pushing me, and he struck me as someone that is suspicious of people who take thread control. this game he has been on those three plus Jake, like the least controversial pushes.

As much as looks bad, this guy also looks bad.




I think I see what VE see's so I think I like VE better.

I think Math is wayyyy too 'clean' this game, like he is playing but everything is sterile. add that he is proven to be actively concious of how he is being perceived.

I like a Math lynch and don;t like a VE lynch at this point.



Wrong, that shit is an inoffensive set of reads.



I agree with this, feels like he is going through the motions, although IRL could explain things.



Does mafia VE ve up like this? I doubt it.

Don't want to Lynch VE.

I do want to lynch MATHENALIN.

I could compromise onto Chezinu but I don't have a good grasp on his alignment so it would be tossing a coin and for future thread health.

##Vote: Mathenalin
