we have an even night doctor, and at least one of Mafia's strong kills are gone.
Hmm, not sure what to make of claiming all this in one swoop.

Pointing out he’s ducked up while still expanding on his tale just gives him a chance to try to damage control sooner. There’s no point in jumping on this shit until he’s done claiming what he had seen. Don’t be daft and act like this doesn’t give him more wiggle room.
Yeah, you're right. It definitely led to him holding back.
 
I'm role cop, I investigated verelios, I got a return that says Target is a role cop.

So either someone swapped verelios and I (which would make spec chat laugh), verelios has some sort of ability causing my target to reflect back at myself (again laughter), or both of us have this role and I just blew up two powerful roles on day 2.
 
Is it possible some outside role gave Verelios a reflect? Does that sort of thing exist?
So you're basically saying Zipped is town because I refuse to believe that Scum would have two JOATs
I'd be careful in a game this big esp since it seems there are more roles than usual. I wouldn't rule it out completely for now, esp if the joats have different abilities.
 
Passives like an ability reflector USUALLY can't be roleblocked. Maybe I'm wrong here though. Was just speculating anyway.

First, I don't believe you.
oh believe me, after seeing the sacrifice, and then the recent flip I'm SURE that something is up with what I did and what I saw last night. and Verelios is at the heart of it.
Being a role cop tells me nothing about this.
I am claiming that last night I had something that I could use, used it on him, and got the exact same role I had.
And something you can use indicates a shot.
 
If you were telling the truth, why would you do what you are currently doing
because I want my game to mean something, and this information can not be useful if I believe that verelios is town, and I spent all of yesterday thinking about how town wouldn't do what verelios did. which brings me to here.

SCUM UP!
Geno please explain for the benefit of everyone where a Roleblock fits in between this Zipped v. Vere thing, thanks everyone give him a hand
 
I'm also going to do this and if I'm wrong/Zipped lied, I'll happily lynch/ITA Zipped tomorrow if I'm still around.

Vote: Verelios

Well, I'm not sure what is going on with Zipped's claim. That being said I don't see why scum would do this so looks like we know a good target for ITA phase 2 now.
 
I was thinking Scum would be able to coordinate ITA targets with role cop identifications. giving a mafia aligned role cop even MORE power in this game.

If he shows up town I'm likely dead tonight anyways. but at least I will have tried. I just can't imagine two town role cops in this game.
 
I won't be around for ITA Phase 2. I'm just assuming we'll have more misses considering Phase 1 :(

If Vere gets ITA'd and is found to be exactly what we're talking (Scum role cop) then that clears zipped and probably rip zipped as well.

I'll be using my shot then, as will others I'm sure. The best play is to shoot Vere to verify Zipped's info and then if he lied we lynch Zipped and if he told the truth we can still get meaningful data in the lynch today instead of everyone just piling on Vere.
 
I suppose being relatively new compared to many vets here, I'll take your word for it that it's possible then.
haha, this is my second full game
just felt qualified to talk since I had hvv's tons of town joats fresh in my mind

Also I kinda feel like I believe Zipped? Like this is just so weird, don't think mafia would try to 1v1 like this especially when they've already lost three teammates.

Sounds like a good plan, it's the same as voting to verify. I'll be interested to see who actually does this though out of the people who are here but haven't had their shot yet.

Whatever, that's fine. If it means catching out Stuart and Zipped then I'm good with the trade.

I just had to skim over 13 pages you damn crazy people.

I burst out laughing at that Splinter kill. Bravo.

Also Kyan dying right after trying to shoot Neeks? ALARM BELLS. Might be a framejob though.

BLARG IS HERE YAY

I've noticed that even though it's Marvel Mafia not a lot of people are using Marvel gifs. What's up with that?

Makes the thread look bare.
 
Caught up finally, so here are just some of my passing thoughts as I was catching up. There's also a few posts in particular I need to find and quote, but for now


@Geno Gonna need more from you on why you thought I was scummy enough to attempt a vig shot on me. Lying about me saying something that I don’t usually say isn’t going to cut it. Almost Rynam tier when it comes to bad uses of an ITA, and comes across as you being salty about my scumread.

Alexem was one of my slight scum reads yesterday, but his first post today and reaction to the Grizzly lynch comes across as genuine to me. He didn’t even attempt to make an excuse to hop on the lynch, and stated a few times he didn’t understand where it even came from. I’d expect at least a slight bus from him if he were Grizzle’s scum bud instead of him being completely oblivious and intentionally staying away from it even when Grizzly was clearly going to die. For similar reasons, I feel less confident about Yn.

I can very easily seeing one of the Rynam ITAs being a scummate bus. I know I would have done it if I were one of his scummates.

There’s also a few posters that are either being weird or nonresponsive that are mostly being overlooked: Include really dropped off the face of the Earth out of nowhere. Febe, JubJub, Salva, as complete no shows shouldn’t be dismissed. Wrote this before Fireblend was replaced, but even after that fact, I still find it worth noting as Febe generally does something more than a couple of joke posts then sinking into the background. Also Extreme Tactician is a very nothing of a player. He makes basic comments and asks questions that don’t amount to much. Otherwise I do not recall seeing a single notable post from him.

All Nomadic has done is troll and shitpost to hell and back. Don't know enough about him to know if this is normal or not, but it's like he's not even trying.

Had a whole spiel about why I thought Kyan was town, but that’s clearly useless now. Other than that, I do think we should review the last few votes on Grizzly again. There’s probably at least one or two between Ynnek, Geno, Apollo, Polter, and Muffin if I had to bet.

Whatever, that's fine. If it means catching out Stuart and Zipped then I'm good with the trade.
Why Stu??

And we'll see if I'm right. If I'm wrong, I may be next on the chopping block after Zipped (Zipped being first because it means he lied and liars get lynched as has been said before)
So you do have a hard on for my death. Almost thought I was going crazy for a second

because I did something and saw something that I didn't think was possible in this game...
This post is weird to me. What is so special about there being two of the same roles in a game, let alone a game with 50 freaking players.

I am claiming that last night I had something that I could use, used it on him, and got the exact same role I had.
Wording here too. You "had something"? As in past tense, and seems to imply it was an item of some kind, or one shot. Seems like an odd statement to be made by a supposed role cop.

oh believe me, after seeing the sacrifice, and then the recent flip I'm SURE that something is up with what I did and what I saw last night. and Verelios is at the heart of it.
What reason do you have to believe this?? With as much as you softed, there's no point in being so vague anymore. You put a target on your back the moment you insisted on making a big deal out of what you apparently saw. If you're really town role cop, this half speak stuff is pointless.

we have an even night doctor, and at least one of Mafia's strong kills are gone.
How do you know this??

I made so many faces during catchup

First: can ANYONE tell me why Grizzly would help START the train on Verelios only to sacrifice himself so blatantly later to avoid it? Because this keeps getting pushed but it seems to ignore the beginning of the whole thing. Especially if Vere IS a role cop. A role cop will be great in this game... like n3, maybe, depending on how much has been pared down. 1 in 48-49 n1, though, is pretty shitbag odds if we're talking about giving up a godfather roleblocker.


I was thinking that just because I'm used to seeing something a bit more from Brazil, even this early on.

but we'll see. Other targets first. Watch Brazil for Summiness in the meantime.
HE JUST GOT HERE
LITERALLY JUST REPLACED INTO A GAME WITH 2500+ POSTS
 
Well I'm off to sleep I think. Been up for like 28 hours or something now z.z

Good luck with ITAs. Hopefully we get lucky again like with Splinter!

Uh, him making scummy af posts today doesn't mean the lynch at the time wasn't lazy.
He did something scummy and y'all said "Oh no, just lynching over such a thing and nothing else is lazy and what he did wasn't really scummy"

Looks like it was pretty scummy

Pineapple Pizza - he was scum, had a different style.
Blarg was in that game? I don't remember that at all. Probably blocked it out of my mind since that was the game that broke me lol Still, that may be the exception not the rule. I'm not going to lynch him over purely meta, there are several people way higher on my radar. Just felt like positing the question.

also I'm gonna try one more time:
can we please not waste speculation and extra posts on "gee that just isn't possible in this game"

Already lost a scum JOAT.

So you're basically saying Zipped is town because I refuse to believe that Scum would have two JOATs
goes double for anyone who was not in HvV

but the truth is we have NO IDEA what to expect from this game and from what we've seen so far, we just know we can expect some powers but we don't know the extend or if/how things will change as the game progresses. Depending on how the ITAs go and how many more flips we have , we might be able to make some guesses by the end of the day but for now we just have a scattering and we do not know what wild shit Sorian has in store for us.

Or maybe it's better to say: speculation is all good but let's not say "x isn't possible" because who knows, scum could have three more godfathers, two more joats, and cats and dogs living together

@heymonkey now that I'm here and town, are you gonna win this game?
I mean, my track record of calling scum Griz and probable town Ezekel is pretty good so far, and your strutting in doesn't factor in yet, so better question is - are you gonna be able to keep your stats up?

Okay before I go.

Grizzly has a history of bussing. He may have started it thinking it wouldn't gain traction. When it did, a role cop for scum helps them a lot.

I believe Zippeds claim so lynch Vere because no way does Town have two role cops nor would scum I'm sure.

If Vere is Scum, Zipped is cleared, if not scum, Zipped dies. You can even go after me then for pushing this.

If he's scum, this post of yours won't look good either as it looks like a save attempt considering how many scum died already.

Yup yup to all of this. Not risking a potential role cop lynch on day 2. Not like this.

yeah, he did all those weird like knuckle cracking gifs and when I redchecked him he tried to claim neutral strongkiller or something.

This is everyone that voted rather late that hasn't flipped aside from me and Gorlak, I'm a bit curious why we're excluded? Gorlak especially struck me as a little weird for voting early, unvoting, and then revoting post-claim.

That was still a lazy lynch reason, especially since he wasn't the only one guilty of doing it. A broken clock is right etc etc etc

No, we said it would be dumb to waste a day 1 lynch on a poster who hasn't done anything, since that means you can't develop any reads or notable info from the flip. Most of the vocal players were pro-Rynam Lynch. The people who called it a dumb lynch didn't say so because we were against him dying. Hell, several people outright said to save him for ITA.
 
If Zipped is telling the truth, we likely won't have a role cop come D3.

If for some unlikely reason, both Zipped and Vere were Role Cops for town, they are both probably dead if Mafia has multiple killing roles.

I don't see much to lose by testing Vere with a kill/lynch.
 
Even @Swamped, @CoolestSpot and @Sawneeks are here <3

This is good stuff.

Sad I missed out on that Grizzly goodness, though. And on the opportunity to shoot Hecht

Welcome @Brazil have you been following along? If not are you going to try and skim or just go forward from this point?
I have not been following along. I was kinda hoping that my presence wouldn't be needed, but I couldn't just let Sorian hanging.

I will read back. If anyone could point me in the direction of a summary or something, that'd be appreciated, though.

You..were a cop in that game? Why can I not remember anything from that game except getting yelled at for being bad? lol

Yup yup to all of this. Not risking a potential role cop lynch on day 2. Not like this.
If we don't figure this out now it will only continue to be a topic of discussion every single day going forward. Do you think both are town?
 
Hell, if you think "Zipped is probably lying" it means that Vere may not even be a role cop but if you're thinking that, lynch/kill Zipped and then Vere

Either way, if one is scum and one is town, it's a trade either way as I think zipped mentioned earlier.
 
This is everyone that voted rather late that hasn't flipped aside from me and Gorlak, I'm a bit curious why we're excluded? Gorlak especially struck me as a little weird for voting early, unvoting, and then revoting post-claim.
I actually forgot about you since initially I removed you from the list due to being one of my town reads, but I'm not so sure anymore. Gorlak was one of the first players on Grizzly, and I found his explanation for temporarily unvoting Grizzly to be acceptable. I'm not completely disregarding him as potential busser, but he doesn't stand out as much to me as the others do when it comes to scumminess.

There's bussing and then there's starting a train only to throw yourself openly on a sword later and just saying "a role cop helps them a lot" is so vague. Tell me, Stu, exactly how is a rolecop better than a roleblocking godfather day one in a 50 person game? How is either better than the other? Just insisting it is isn't an argument for.

See, the thing is, I'm not saying this is impossible. I'm saying I want to see an argument for it, and what you're give me is "it's totally possible." Yes, it's totally possible. But why do it? Why start by pushing Vere in the first place when there are 48 other targets just lying around - some of them literally?

Further, Zipped could well be telling the truth and that doesn't change any of the above. There are multiple scenarios in which his claim could be completely legit and Vere not be scum, or be scum of a different faction, or be neutral, or there be something else at work. We push on it and we try to figure it out.

You know what's a bad look? You trying to threaten me for pushing on the logic here. First, it's not like you're going to intimidate me; that is a big ol' waste of your time. Second, why on earth wouldn't we question this stuff from multiple angles? Why wouldn't that be the thing to do here?
