I left them enough clues about Claude. Maybe they find them. I don't think I could have been more obvious.
I could have claimed Cop, but odds are I was gonna get NK.
I thought about lying to save myself - claim some other role - but you vote off liars, so decided against that.
I just want to see some of the townies squirm like they did to me.
Screw them. I didn't feel like spending 9 hours defending myself after spending the last 24+ doing so.
Hi everyone, I subbed out.
You'll learn who I was eventually but spoiler for my in-game identity/role/alignment:
Trevor
Town Mason
Mason Partner:
Catalina
My final scum reads were Asuka and Huang.
The current plan in Mason Chat is to mass claim and murder the shit out of Sorian... I mean... Asuka...
I haven't peeked at the identity spoilers in here, but this was my final list after D2:
[m] Vincent Alexander - TommyV
[m] Olinad - Michael
[m] WhySoDevious - Claude/Carl
[they] Aeleus - Carl/Claude
[m] Kyanrute - Catalina
[f] Dr. Monkey - Lance
[-] Sorian - Asuka
[m] Muffin - Ken
[m] Godfather - Franklin
[f] Kitsunelaine - Huang
[-] Swamped - Stan - Roman
[m] Lone_Prodigy - Niko
I don't want to get into a huge thing about this, but here's what I have to say about your play there:Screw them. I didn't feel like spending 9 hours defending myself after spending the last 24+ doing so.
I'll take full spoilers in the form of a PM if you don't mind, yeah. I'm too curious lol.Would you like any confirmations? Or spoilers messaged to you? :P

I just didn't have the Mafia-playing energy left to keep going with this one, too many weird things going on, I was confident in my reads and everything but didn't feel like I could keep up with my own pace anymore.and I am very sorry you are burned out from this game, really :(
Oh hi there fanto, I was wondering who stu was pming.
o/
Tell me about it.
My tinfoil hat scum is still Trevor, which would also be funny - but I also think he would have not offed me n1 since I had him as town.
I'll make my real scum guesses tomorrow. Right now I'd be leaning hard on Catalina, I think.
identity spec:
New guess is Sorian is Asuka and kitsunelaine is Catalina. Franklin is Godfather.
That might have been part of it too, I was having trouble remembering who said what outside of my firmest identity reads. I really love the concept of a costume game, but yeah, things just felt off to me after a while. I would probably have felt a lot more comfortable if the masks were off, the meta is real lol.Costume games can be really hard and weird, so don't measure anything by that. <3 This is really nothing like a normal game and it's kind of a thing where it's easy to not get into it because the identities blend and it feels like there are no stakes.
I'm surprised about
your mason partner, tbh
So now you double hate me? Damn
I'll never forgive that group that excluded you in 999 by the way. I shook my head solemnly when I saw that flip.
It’s understandable. I’ve never actually been able to follow a costume game so far. It’s so hard for me to keep my thoughts straight with all the generic accounts. I’m glad people enjoy them, but I don’t think it’s for me.So, I feel bad about subbing out, but I still think it was the right call for me to make.
Just throughout D2 in general, I was feeling like I didn't have much to say (says the guy with 100 posts), and that I wasn't sure how to navigate through the game anymore. There were a lot of players I wanted to call out, or pressure, or something, but I just didn't have any idea how to go about it anymore.
I had a lot of energy on D1, and that just sort of went away on D2 for whatever reason, and by the end I just had very little motivation left in me. On N1 I was totally into going through and digging for clues, but when I went to go do the same now when N2 started, I found that I really just didn't care anymore, which was a bad feeling.
And that's what led me to asking for a replacement. My guess is it's a burnout thing, that's kind of what it feels like. I had my scum reads, and I just didn't give a fuck whether I was right or wrong, or what new evidence I could find, or who were my top Town reads, none of it felt like it mattered.
So yeah, big long post to basically say that I don't know if this was just because of this game and how things were going, or if in general I just need to stay away from Mafia for a while and actually want to care again. I don't know.
Knowing me, it'll be hard for me to stay away for very long, but now I'll have this thing in the back of my mind like "what if the game burns me out though" and that might not be good, so I'll probably want to make sure that thought goes away before I sign up again.
So now you double hate me? Damn
Yeah, I think I might have had more fun just trying to guess who was who from in here and not having to put as much effort in as I normally try to, because it was a lot harder than normal for me to get there. I hope it was just the costume aspect.It’s understandable. I’ve never actually been able to follow a costume game so far.

You won’t be able to resist the next game so I suspect you’ll be back pretty soon :P I think half the fun is the interactions and the masks just make it harder. I’m sure you will get back into the groove no problem, though I know a lot of us have taken various breaks so if you do think you need some time by all means don’t feel like you have to play.
(Still can't get over that self vote though lmao that was so good)

My OOG scumlist:
TommyV
Roman
How close am I? Just tell me if I'm wrong or right. Maybe. Idk.
Hi, I'm on mobile right now. No, I had no idea you were Niko, but I should have known!! Lol, that was great, I loved your posts.
As for your guesses above, I'll just say
They aren't both scum
half
Except the one long ass post where I make up some BS reason for leaning town on Claude.I need to go back and re-read Asuka. I already looked at Carl, and he offered just about 0 info as far I could tell.
Except the one long ass post where I make up some BS reason for leaning town on Claude.
“He thinks like me”
“He was the mid vote, just like I’ve done”
Makes me think TommyV really is scum or SK
Any good guesses in there?
Zzzzz, You two took too long to give me spec access so I did it myself.
Zzzzz, You two took too long to give me spec access so I did it myself.
Without reading anything here: one of (or both) Catalina and Trevor are mafia, add in Tommy and that group of three should have all the mafia. Ken roleblocked me N1. Carl got a town read on either Claude or Nico, I think it was Claude personally.
Any good guesses in there?
I guess I don't know if Ken roleblocked me but I don't see any other way Lance died.
You got the Claude thing correct.
It actually isn't too bad a guess apart from being completely wrong on alignments.
You weren't roleblocked
Town almost has to lynch the SK today to have a chance here.
I wonder if anyone will be brazen and accuse the masons of being the last two scum instead.
huang said:Are you SK or scum by the way?
Crossing my fingers for the 1-1-1 end game where Town has to not vote and hope the Mafia and SK shoot each other, except they can't do that because they know that situation will result in their own loss, so they must shoot the townie, but then the other killer will know that they know that, meaning they could shoot them instead and win, but since they know they know they know that, then they would want to shoot each other, but this would result in a town win, and that would be playing to lose, so instead they would try to shoot the townie...Catalina said:2-1-1 devolves into a no lynch into a fucking madness.

Could be, I just like the WIFOM lol.I'm too lazy to check the set-up. I assume this game goes by standard rules where a 1v1 scum vs. SK is automatically the SK win?
I knew who Catalina was based on her first post in our Mason thread lol.
Catalina - Kyanrute
Claude - Muffin

Nah, that's my gif that I left behind in Mason chat lol. Catalina has one too.
Damn, now I inadvertently complimented you. I have to go.
Also I'm decently sure I know who replaced me, and if I'm right, lol.
Is it Z-Beat?Who do you think?
Also I went away for literally half an hour, come back and I have to warn people.
wow. you got it right. actually surprised haha.
Thing is you left that 'supposed' in a place that looks like you're questioning that I'm not a replacement
Well, I knew he signed up but didn't get in, but also, this is the most Z-Beat thing to say ever lol:
I guess you...
Z-BEAT
them to the punch!
I did not mean to post tht. Weird.
well i'm glad i died last night because i'd have to have gotten a replacement today thanks to my city being a target of terrorism right now and me being kinda shook

wait what?
Stay safe Kits. Seriously.
yeah i live in christchurch. i'm like a 30 minute walk away from where everything happened.
Awww, did you try to protect me?Ok, read through now, I was right on 2 of 3! Maybe, I guess I don't know if Ken roleblocked me but I don't see any other way Lance died.
Sorry to hear it. I've been near two similar incidents and they're awful.yeah i live in christchurch. i'm like a 30 minute walk away from where everything happened.
the thing that's heartbreaking is that it just doesn't happen over here. mass shootings aren't a thing in new zealand.Sorry to hear it. I've been near two similar incidents and they're awful.
Yeah. And from the news, this seems particularly... egregious. I won't lie. It will take time before shit feels normal again, especially for y'all.the thing that's heartbreaking is that it just doesn't happen over here. mass shootings aren't a thing in new zealand.
Catalina said:I think it tells something about the authenticity of the counter-mason push if the pushers aren't formalizing actual arguments apart from "possible scum gambit" or "hidden meanie masterminds in action".
yeah i live in christchurch. i'm like a 30 minute walk away from where everything happened.
Awww, did you try to protect me?
Also same.<3

(Still logged into the costume on my phone and I’m far too lazy to switch)
I'll address this in here:Huang said:Also me pretending to be that person was meant to be a bit of fun, same as Niko doing his posting style, if it made him uncomfertable I apologise unreservedly, I hadn't thought that as a possibility, I'll make sure not to do it again.
I'll address this in here:
It did make me feel uncomfortable, mainly because it felt like I was being personally targeted by someone, and I wasn't sure who they were or why they were doing it. After finding out who you are, I'm still not sure why you singled me out like that, because I've never played with you before, so I can only guess as to why you decided to do that.
I also think it's unfair to compare that to how Niko was playing, because Niko was simply adding some flavor to his posts. You were purposefully trying to impersonate another player on the roster, which is not at all similar in my mind.
All that being said, I don't think there was anything wrong with the play necessarily since it was a costume game after all, and I accept the apology, but I do think that was a bit of a grey area that you were in there and isn't really comparable to what Niko was doing.
Sorry, my bad. <3Just an FYI, you can refer to me as she out of game. <3

I guess it's just a strange feeling to have someone I've never played with before go digging through old games I've played so they can find gifs I've made and make references to those games in an attempt to impersonate me, and try to do it for more than one day as well. That's what I meant by "personally targeting."In PR, we had a player pretend to be a different player each day. It was hilarious tbh.
But yeah, I don't think they were personally targeting you, they were just having a bit of fun. And they really like your gifs. I'd say it's a compliment.
That said when they get here (or after the game if they survive until the end), feel free to discuss it with them but I'm sure they meant no harm.
Bleh, just a lot of stuff about this game got to me in some way. I hope it was just the costume stuff, because I do really want to play in Monkey's Twilight Zone game, but I also think I want to take a break soon and just try to not think about Mafia so much. I've played in or spectated every game since GoT, I could probably use a few weeks to just think about anything else instead.
