hi
Hi! Invited you here because your role puts you above suspicion and you seem to have a really solid handle on the game and the players. I know you voted for me but hopefully this make it clear I'm town.
Anyways, this is what I've got. I think it's kind of obvious and not super-helpful, but I'd like your input I guess:
- Jman said he was doctor when people started voting for him. Not sure if he was joking or not seems to me like announcing that would make you kind of a target. Additionally he constantly hopped onto whatever train looked most likely to score a lynch.
- I've reviewed the thread and I don't think Uzzy is mafia anymore. I think my original reasons for suspecting her were flawed and her defense makes sense.
- Does Blarg always vote for everybody each game? It seems like they could be trying to obfuscate their behavior and voting.
Right now I'd say I'm leaning towards Jman being mafia.

Nah I disagree on Jman. He's clearly one to panic when we're down to the wire and saw votes quickly coming in and wanted to stop the lynch from switching over to him. He didn't execute it well, but that just makes it seem more genuine. But regardless, doctor situation will come to sort themselves sooner rather than later, so that's a subject not worth pursing right now. Definitely a town lean though.
I have Uzzy as a light townread, but I need to see more from her. She claims to be playing "more aggressively" to counter her passive nature last game, but I'm not feeling any fire coming from her as of now.
And Blarg is weird man lol. Sometimes I'll go off the wall in effort to bait reactions, but that's nothing compared to Blarg. He's hard to predict because as he alluded to, he intentionally blends his "town" and "mafia" approaches to the game in effort to make himself a harder read. What he's done so far isn't out of the ordinary, but if you notice him continuing to do things considered "fluff" then I'd scrutinize him more.

And my bad if you felt I treated you harshly. I didn't realize this was your first game so that definitely puts things into perspective more. I was in a hurry to leave for something irl I forgot to even drop my final impressions. Although between you, Jman, and turm, I probably would have stuck with you anyway.
The best thing for you to do moving forward is be more open with your impressions and use your vote as a tool to pressure people and leaving your footprint. Pressure was the only reason I voted for you initially, but I took your panicked response coupled with long breaks between posts as you potentially consulting someone and trying to make up for it last minute. But that's behind us now.
Anyway, what is your role title?

If Geno didn't have the vacation excuse, I'd be all over his ass lol. But I'll give him the benefit of the doubt for now, although currently he has made a terrible D1 impression. His back and forth with Launch was NAI but that was the bulk of his interactions during D1. I don't like how Launch was his sole read the entire day. Geno brushed off the idea of being the lynch pick, but he did nothing to establish himself to prove he wasn't worth lynching, so that was a bad line on his part.
The thing about scum Geno is that he barely posts then he comes up with excuses for why he doesn't post. When enough people press "town Geno" he'll clap back more aggresively, but "scum Geno" will often ignore topics or throw attention off of himself. And he's usually very forward with his reads of people. He usually has a stronger Day 1 approach, but I'll have to wait until D2 to get a better grasp of his approach this time.

Sparky, Turmoil (rip), Chuggs, and Launch were my town leans before I left, and I'll probably stick with those for now (and well, you now).
You gave me perspective on who you suspect, but who are you townreading so far?

Oh, and to add to the Jman thing, his vote for me made entirely no sense, which I can't see someone grasping straws for as scum so early into the game. I mean I can, but it's probably not likely.
Just off of voting habits alone, Geno, (Tearable)Puns, and Hedin look kinda sus. Blarg as you mentioned is also all over the place but it's pretty NAI for him.
An important topic for analysis is the supposed three way tie push between town players, assuming you and Jman are both town. That means if scum players already had a vote down, they have no incentive into switching into one of the three of you.

Also sorry for the walls of text lol. And I'm sure you know this, but if we both survive the night, don't go too hard into alluding that we spoke with each other just yet. A light breadcrumb would help your case later in case I end up dying, but nothing too overt this early into the game.
The mafia team are at an inherent advantage in terms of information for obvious reasons, so the more that they think they know more than we do, the better. So we can flip it on them when the time is right.

Night is almost over. You still there, buddy?

Ohhhhh a gossip.
Chuggernaut
HONK HONK MF
That day end was some not good stuff. Didn’t get any info from the tie because our conformed town was the one who did it
That was also in part my fault. As I alluded to in the thread, my internet at the time was ass so it didn't even refresh quickly enough to see your message before I posted my vote. This obv sucks, and a lot of our efforts were wasted, but we gotta move on.
Also another thing, I didn't realize we didn't do tiebreakers here. That's why I was so nonchalant about unvoting with Uzzy. Every other place I've played mafia has tiebreakers so I assumed we'd be safe either even if there was a tie. Clearly not though.

And welcome Chuggs. I can't say I expected to see more people here. Stu, Snifit wasn't able to respond last time, but can you give more details on what your role specifically is? I'm even more confused now lol
Yeah I take part of the blame like I said, but if you check the timestamps I voted and Stu unvoted at nearly the exact same moment. We just got super unlucky.
Chuggernaut
HONK HONK MF
Oh wait shit, this is some Illuminati shit.
What do you want to know?
I can invite someone during the day phase, chat opens at night and people have access to this ch at until they are lunched/killed or until I am.
Chuggernaut
HONK HONK MF
Yeah, I don't think it was on purpose. Stu's unvote was first and was clearly meant to break the tie, and again, you're confirmed town
So you can invite a new person each day indefinitely? Interesting. What's the title of your role?
Chuggernaut
HONK HONK MF
A secret club chat makes me think Stu is like 95% town so I can cross that off my list.
Night 1 was a lot of me talking to myself, so I'm glad of all people I have you two in here with me haha
Yup, no limits outside of once per day. So if we're all alive N3, you'll have another new buddy to chat to.
I am Wave Tennegan.
A Chat Recruiter.
And I've not played the game this mafia is based on so I don't know much about the flavour or my flavour name or stuff.
Yep, join the club. That's why if you notice in the thread I did a complete 180 on Snifit. Chances of this being a scum role feel incredibly low.
Chuggernaut
HONK HONK MF
Yeah, I started backing off because I wanted to see what the replacement would do, and once I saw it was Stu I figured letting him do his thing would be the better choice
I didn't realize you had multiple picks, but if I did then Chuggs, Stan, and Launch would have been my top picks. So I'm glad you went with one of them.
Chuggernaut
HONK HONK MF
I still have this paranoia that Stan is pocketing me, because I'm just shocked by how well we seem to be mind melding here, but he's bringing up stuff in his LP post that I didn't even consider bringing up which tells me he's actually thinking about it and not just sheeping. Could still be scum, but I don't think so.
I chose Chuggs because we've played a lot and Chuggs if town I consider valuable and thus being able to speak to him in here may help for bouncing ideas off the wall as long as we stay alive. If Scum, I'll probably be killed off when an opportunity arises. >.> like last time Chuggs was scum in the same game as me lol.
Why is Terra confirmed town btw? Must have missed something during my skims.
Chuggernaut
HONK HONK MF
He's an innocent child. Game started off with red text telling us he was town.
Chuggernaut
HONK HONK MF
Should I claim in here or hold it? I trust you two, but it's possible scum gets an invite by mistake. It's not a super big deal if scum figures out though.
I'm not sure Stan is one to pocket people, at least as far as I remember in the past.
I still don't feel convinced by Jman, but I'm iffy on LP.
Experience tells me either one of them is for sure scum or both are town.
If the former, scum wants to stay quiet and let town lead the way to a mislunch (or no lunch in this case).
If the latter, scum doesn't want vote changes to happen and go towards scum.
EITHER WAY: There was faaaaarrrrrrrr too little movement at EOD which is something to consider. Half an hour with no votes and hardly any talking outside of Jman's multiple posts and then the EOD last 2 minute mess lol.
Just feels off to me.
Yeah hold off on the claim. Anything posted tonight will be here for everyone to see in subsequent nights. Better to play it safe.
Ah, I only looked at D1 end for flip, not D1 start, oops.
I don't trust myself not to select scum at least once while I'm alive so it's up to you how you feel about it.
Chuggernaut
HONK HONK MF
Alright, I'll hold off on the claim for now.
And yeah, the EoD really did not go how I was expecting it to at all. I was not a fan of how quiet that was.
It does have me second guessing my LP read a bit, but I can't get over how off he is. He's not doing anything except arguing with me about my scum read while insisting he doesn't scum read me. I don't trust it.

But anyway time to go back to the drawing board a bit here now that I'm less sure about Hawthorn and Stu is town.
This post from Geno was sitting off some major alarm bells when I read it. My god does this feel like something scum Geno would write. I think Terra was right about his read here where Geno is focusing in on Jman while ignoring everything else in the game.

You can see most of my thoughts from D1. I wouldn't say a ton has changed since then. In a 19 player game we can probably expect ~6 scum players. Early scumteam predictions I'm thinking it's somewhere in Hawthorne, Geno, Hedin, LP, and nin. Kopite/Uzzy I keep waffling back and forth on. One moment I scumlean, then they do something that specifically reads like genuine town play to me.
I wanna add Salva as well, but he feels a lot like TownSalva from my experience. Although of course it's nothing new to blend behavior between alignments. I don't recall if that's a tactic he specifically employs or not.
I'll have to reread through D2 in the morning (9 pm est right now) because as we all came to the same conclusion, the end of today was weird. People got complacent and scum was definitely able to use that to coast. And there's definitely things I glossed over I want to catch.

It is lol. He mentioned that to me when we rolled scum a couple of games ago. Like I actually feel like he comes across as scum Salva, but I'm just not super sure for him.
Yeah, I'm with you on Kopite/Uzzy. Hedin I'm pretty sure is town, but it's possible he's changed up his scum game because it was his first game when we rolled scum together.
Mao and Launch feel town as fuck.
Chuggernaut
HONK HONK MF
Stu have you managed to read the whole game yet?
Nah, I've skimmed parts of it but that's about it. I mainly focused on looking at votes and skimming to see the reasons for said votes.
If you think there is something I should read or look for though, just let me know and I'll go hunting in the thread lol.
Chuggernaut
HONK HONK MF
Anything jump out to you on a skim? I know you weren't liking Salva's stuff all that much, but I wanted to see if there was anyone else that was sticking out to you as possible scum
I'll skim again and answer this a bit later on. I'm still waking up haha z.z
So, I defo think Jman made a stupid gambit but I can't see him being scum. I feel like scum would make a claim like that with longer to go to try and flush out a counterclaim.
His reactions to it all on D2 are also a bit weird but I also don't think that's scum like I guess?
LPs responses still read weird to me. Framing it as well as defending himself OR scum hunting (see one of his last posts in D2, the one I responded to) also feels very excuse-like to not do any scum hunting especially when they aren't mutually exclusive and he knows he can do both.
Also again, the Jman stuff provided a decent distraction for scum and with the damned tie, we can't really push through what is and isn't bullshit looking busy shit during the start of D2.
Can't explain why but Nin feels off to me? Someone to keep an eye on.
Blarg, I can't really read well but I'm gonna just say scum for him lol. (Funky is also not easy to read and I'm currently null on them... currently)
Salva just feels scummish but I'll try and look back at them when I get a chance.
This is all mostly from D2 but thats my thoughts written down while I was skimming.
@Terraforce I wouldn't mind hearing your case against Geno in here.
also both to you and @TheChuggernaut top 3 town from both of yous pls!
Aka give me ideas on who to invite tomorrow night assuming I'm around to do so.

Still trying to catch up on the day, but I find it interesting that with few exceptions, the LP lynch mostly consist of townreads and the Jman lynch consists of mostly scumreads (based on my own reads, but Chuggs seemed to agree at least in part). You'd think they would try to split themselves up, but stranger things have happened. EoD votes usually have something you can glean from them in retrospect.
On Geno, he's playing directly into the scum Geno form I expect from him. Look back at his posts day 1 and 90% of them are filler or reverse tunneling on Launch. Launch's super focus on Geno was weird to me, but he eventually moved on. Launch was the only definitive read Geno gave during the entirety of the day. And Day 2 it was nearly identical for Jman. At the point I called him out, 100% of his posts of D2 were hyper-focused on Jman.
Scum Geno generally plays it low more than he does as town, which is evident this game. His zero-inning on two specific players and not contributing much of anything outside of that really feels like he's using them as a platform to appear as if he's involved when he's really far from it if you read his posts. To top it off was the post about him complaining about the idea swirling around of lynching him. Instead of providing a compelling case for himself or establishing himself as a player not worth lynching, he just shrugged off the idea as stupid. Not incriminating in itself, but coupled with him not doing anything of note prior, I'm not sure what ammo he thought he had in his arsenal worth clearing him.

Also dont forget guys that this chat closes in 2.5 hours.
Thanks for the info on Geno. I'll try and look back at him before day starts. (thank you Febe's tools for making that easier lol).
Could you answer the above.
Mainly cause I'm unsure of who I should consider inviting tomorrow - again assuming I'm alive and all that.
Launch or Stan would be my picks. I'd probably give Launch the edge since I'm more confident in him being town.
Alright, thank you. Hopefully Chuggs pop in with his thoughts before the chat gets closed.
Either way, I do feel a bit more confident in Chuggs being town right now so I'm happy about that though I'll still keep an eye on all who aren't confirmed town like you Mr. Innocent lol.
Chuggernaut

I set an alarm so I wouldn't miss this closing lmao

Lauch and Stan would be my picks as well and I would probably throw Mao in there also.
Chuggernaut

I'm pretty sure this is town Sparks and town Blarg, but if I'm wrong about one, it's Blarg. Either way, wouldn't mess with either of those two.
Mao is a good one I forgot to mention.
Sparky definitely feels like town. Blarg I lean town on as well but there's no telling. But yeah don't pick either for tomorrow.

Ok, this is a trustworthy collection of folks, so I’m just going to roleclaim and drop my theory on why Terra is still alive.
I am Subject Not Found, a 1-shot vig, but there’s a catch. My ability won’t unlock until Terra is dead. As such, I believe the reason Terra is alive is because scum might also have an incentive to keep Terra alive through one of their role PMs with a similar condition.

The exact wording is Limited Night Vigilante
Oh damn. a town vig who only gets a shot if a town confirmed person dies.
Also small breadcrumb in the thread was me asking you and Stan about each other. Just to foreshadow that I had to decide who to bring into the chat (as you will have seen above with our earlier gossip convo)
Also I'm using that "Will:" Power to explain who was in the gossip chat and that I townread those I invite.
At least that's what I sent to Aeleus earlier. I can of course change it anytime before I kick the bucket lol.

...can I smell you?
Ok, that’s good. I don’t really trust Stan, though. I could be wrong, but his reactions and posting style haven’t sat right with me. I haven’t played with him before either, so it might just be his style.
I was reading through some of the earlier conversations in here now to see where your heads are at, but I already had strong town reads on Chuggs and Terra before Blarg confirmed you and Chuggs. I think Blarg is telling the truth or else that’s a really ballsy gamble. I think Geno is lying out of his ass, that role feels way too strong for a game that’s locked my ability behind another player’s death. I’m also a little disappointed LP was turbo’d, but I understand the frustration there. I don’t know if anything more of worth would’ve been said in 24 hours, but it feels like we’re barreling towards a bad finish.
LaunchpadMcQ
...can I smell you?
Ah maybe I should have held my role claim back, but I guess there’s a chance Stu dies tonight and there are no more new chat mates. It’s worth the risk to keep you people specifically informed we have a Hail Mary.
What are you all’s thoughts on Jman now that LP has flipped town?

Chuggernaut
HONK HONK MF
I was holding off on it until we got the LP flip, but every time Stan has followed onto one of my reads, it’s been town. It feels like he was pushing me in those directions and LP had a good point about him leaving his vote on Hawthorn
Chuggernaut
HONK HONK MF
Geno is on some grade A bullshit. That claim is bullshit, he knew how LP was going to flip before he flipped, the Sparks thing is bullshit
Yeah, I can see now why you think Geno is lying. That said, without a scum flip, it's hard to analyze the game and votes. (I do better when we have at least one scum flip to analyze)
Well first off, I'm going to reevaluate Salva since I said I would if LP flipped town.
Jman, I'm just not sure on. The whole thinking he was probably dead and stuff multiple times during the start of the day and all that. It feels like a town move when he says that but at the same time, I have seen scum do it before so idk.
Still I'm more willing to consider Jman a little now.
But I'm thinking maybe Geno is a higher priority. Maybe...
Also I want ideas for the next invitee incase I survive tonight. (I probably will. There is other more important targets for scum to go after. Blarg/Geno depending on who's being truthful, Terra for being confirmed town, etc)
I feel like maybe Stan is off limits now because of this ^

oooooh you mean for the chat
LaunchpadMcQ
...can I smell you?
I totally agree with
I think Geno has bubbled to the top for me, as well, but Jman, Stan, and Uzzy (depending on Geno’s flip) might be a scum team. It’s weird Geno’s fake claim included Uzzy. Also, Uzzy started throwing suspicion out on MrHedin right before he died, which is a bit of an odd coincidence. If I had to throw a fifth out, I’d say Salva, but he’s hard to read.
I have confidence that Blarg is telling the truth, so another semi-confirmed town voice in here would be my preference. I’m not sure about all his opinions this game, but my history with him makes me think he’s worth believing in.
Maol would be my second choice, but I’m not sure I’ve got a great read on him. He is a good player to have, though.
LaunchpadMcQ
...can I smell you?
I totally agree with you*
Chuggernaut
HONK HONK MF
Yeah, I don’t know what you would do for the chat. Even Mao is making me a little nervous after that flip. Still think he’s town though. Honestly you might want to bring Blarg in here if he’s not dead
Yeah I'm not sure on Maol myself.
The ones I am suspicious off but have no real reason (or at least I'm not great at writing out my reasons lol) include Maol, Nin, Kopite and Uzzy.
But I do want the Geno flip now. History has taught me, scum can act so sure of themselves and act like they don't care if they are lunched because "town gonna town" as a sort of reverse psychology type of play resulting in not lunching them.

There’s another thing here about Blarg I noticed that might be nothing, but I didn’t want to mention it in the thread where everyone could see. So from my perspective, connecting the dots of this game having unique roles and then seeing my role, I thought there would be more roles based around Red being an innocent child. Unless some of you are holding back some details, I don’t really think that’s wholly true; it’s probably just me and a scum role if I had to guess.
That said, the way Blarg rolled out his role claim makes me think he has something that lines up with one these unique roles. He keeps asking where the unique roles are, for starters, which could be a misdirection. Then add in that he asked a bunch of folks to post if they were town; it might tie back to a requirement to use his role. He did not say exactly how he checked people’s alignment, and that might be a crucial detail he did not want to openly share that may help us solve more of the game.

On the Geno topic, as of now I'd be all for lynching him next. If he's telling the truth then we see his role in full and it clears Uzzy and whoever he scans tonight. If he's lying like he very well may be doing, he's out of our hair.
Blarg could be an interesting wrinkle we could try adding. After the LP flip, I'm going to need to rereview my reads, but Blarg's claim was timely enough that I could trust it. I found it funny he "cleared" the three of us as his core town when he did, since we all had our secret base here already lol
Like Launch said, I'm getting more and more iffy on Stan. I see where Chuggs is coming from and I would say the same applies for myself (finding myself agreeing with him or vice versa) but I don't know if I want him here anymore, same with Maol.
I'm assuming choosing no one is also an option Stu, so I guess if we can't come to a consensus that is also possible.
Blarg could be an interesting wrinkle we could try adding. After the LP flip, I'm going to need to rereview my reads, but Blarg's claim was timely enough that I could trust it. I found it funny he "cleared" the three of us as his core town when he did, since we all had our secret base here already lol

Indeed but it's good to get feedback here before the day starts since this chat locks. Then I can judge during the day and see what happens.
Oh no doubt. I'm not trying to put any fault/pressure on you at all. Just throwing the possibility out there.

Okay so of the players not in here.
Hawthorn is an unknown for me still. The more I see her play the more I feel like she's just an inexperienced townie though. Probably wouldn't mess with her.
Kopite is still unknown and hanging out under the radar. Geno flipping scum would make me feel better about him, but it wouldn't clear him. Probably wouldn't mess with him if Geno is scum unless we were really in the nitty gritty though.
Stan I really think we should start looking into.
Mao I still am getting townie vibes off of. He might have just been wrong town about LP like we were. Not as sure about this, but my gut says he's still okay. Doesn't come off as bad looking as Stan imo.
nin I have no idea. I feel like he wouldn't link himself to Geno like he did with that Sparks kill if he on his team though. Will look into this depending on the Geno flip.
Jman I have no idea about. This makes me feel less sure of him being town for sure.
Uzzy is a blind spot for me too. Does scum Geno clear his own scum mate? Maybe?
Blarg is town. God the fucking state of a game where Blarg is one of my strongest town reads. His claim lines up WAY too well with what we already knew from this chat.
Sparks is probably town. This just feels like town Sparks to me. Hopefully he's not a liability later.
Geno is the scummiest scum to ever scum.
Salva I actually feel a bit better about with him pushing back against us. I've only ever played with town Salva once when I was also town, but I remember butting heads against him with his play style there too.
Geno and Stan are probably where we need to be looking next. Jman, Uzzy, Kopite, and nin aren't great looking either and we probably need to look into them. We're in a rough spot here, not gonna lie. We really need a Geno scum flip to start making sense of this shit.

Should have listened to you on day 1, Launch :(

OH fuck, I forgot something crucial about my role. SHIT lol
I can only use the vig kill on someone Terra (Red) has voted for.

Like has a vote for, period? Or where his vote is at EoD?

Because we can just go and have Terra go and put a vote down for everyone lol

The state of this game is ridiculous enough. I don't even know if I'm right.
It just says before Red gets eliminated, so I think it's cumulative to the whole game.

I was thinking the same thing haha

There are some good potential targets on that list already like Geno and Salva, but it’d be best to have as many options. If you’re alive Terra, I’d vote for everyone once.

I could go Geno or Jman today. I can’t shake my suspicions about Jman, but I think Geno in particular has shown really scummy behavior D3. If I turn up dead, don’t forget to at least look closer at Jman. Don’t let him fool you, he’s crafty enough to pull this off.
Yep I've been feeling like that about nin as well. Those would be my next two, then Haw/Kopite.
And I'm glad you remembered to remind us before it was too late Launch lol. If I'm alive I'll make sure to cover most if not everyone. At the very least, Geno/nin aren't bad options of the ones I did vote so far.
Have you decided on a target for tomorrow, Stu?

I was so preoccupied with the role being tied to your death, I had literally not thought about it until yesterday. That would’ve sucked tremendously if I’d forgotten.
And yeah, I forgot about Nin. I could see him being scum, too. He’s always been hard for me to read, though, and I don’t think I’ve played a game where he’s been scum before.

Geno is where I want to vote today, for sure. Cool with looking into nin though. He's been giving me weird vibes. If there's some weirdness on that Jman vote other than Geno, it's him
I think Blarg however
if Geno is NK'd and his role is as said, then I'm not sure who to invite and it could really come down to whoever is most townie to me. if anyone

...can I smell you?
Oh, if Geno is telling the truth, I’m betting scum would still want us to do the work for him. But if Geno is telling truth and we do kill him, I think we’re going to be in really hot water lol

Is Blarg in here? Because he has some explaining to do.
