I was trying to be kinda quiet with that broadcast, but now that you've brought it front and center, no point beating around the bush. Probably means I'm dead tonight, but hopefully I survive long enough to use the last of my ability.

I'm the technician. Poor Nippy was my first chatmate. I'm kinda annoyed with him for not trusting me enough to tell me he was the doc. I stayed out of the Gink/Biggs showdown because I thought there was a decent chance Gink was telling the truth and I was already somehow suspect for joking around with Mad. I'm glad I didn't in the vote because I was so torn that I likely would have done the same thing Caldias did. Had he been nice enough to share his role (which is kinda understandable since the neighborizor chat is unverified), I would have jumped on the Gink train and brought that to a hammer.

I used the first of my two ability uses last night. That person's identity shall remain anonymous.

Down the drain go all my thoughts, this is one of the possibilities I thought, but didn't seem that quiet, scum would have probably picked up on it, and you'd be dead anyway. Still, doesn't rule out the possibility of you being a mafioso.

Nope, definitely doesn't, which is the problem Nippy and I had.

Hmm. OK. Ill think about this. Sounds plausible....but might be an untruth.

Mad also seems very suspicious. Don't know how deep this infiltration goes but I will root it out.....eventually.

I'm going to kick this one off

Because why? I'm happy to address whatever concerns you may have, but I need to know what they are, assuming its not something I've already discussed.

Voting sans reasoning is generally considered a scum tell, fyi.

That or a Strongman. But I'm still alive.

I believe mafia has a jailkeeper and we have mutiple strongmen. Or both sides have one.

I have a feeling that it's either you or Truth.....based on all the previous activity.. ...and I was right about Ginks.....maybe I'm right about this too.

Also had to start somewhere as had been called out for not posting much. I have no issue changing my vote based on follow up discussion.

Thanks for the advice though.

Fair enough, but you're ignoring some far more suspect folks. Caldias is my top suspect. He can try to explain all he wants, but the behavior is very scummy. He's quick to jump around on voting and tried to save Gink. I'd like @BiggsIRL to weigh in before I vote, though.

beep.beep.

Interpretation:

I totally sense the same thing, but I'm like 55/45 leaning more towards Truthiness right now. Too many conveniences. Now he's in a chat with our dead Nips.

Don't try to deflect from the fact you voted for Biggs there Ninja. You want proof, here we go. I'll paste the entire chat with Nippy.

Should we announce what our roles are? Who’s the technician?

I believe we're both technicians. We definitely need to keep this hush hush. We know that the two of us are trustworthy, but we don't necessarily know that for anyone we bring in. If we do, we need to be as certain as possible.

Hmmm. . . Well OK, I’ll take your word for it, but it’s not a Masonry, where we are guaranteed to be on the same team, so I’m a bit suspicious still. If we can bring in anybody, then wouldn’t it be great to bring in the cop, if and when we find him? Or the Doc, if there is one? Any town power role (provided you’re also town, of course).

Oh it’s not? Bah. Well, I’m gonna trust you until proven otherwise because I’m just gonna tear my hair out if I’m trying to discern who is telling the trust in TWO different chats. I’ll take anyone so long as we can be 99.99% certain they’re on our side. Power roles are risky because scum might be trying to impersonate one, but obviously it would be good to have if we get it right. Either way, getting 4 people together voting as a block would be a HUGE town advantage.

No kidding. Especially late game. We could potentially control the votes. . . alright, let’s atone for Games 1 and 5! Make the town win! Gooooooooooooooooo TEAM TOWN! :)

So yeah, joke vote time. Hard to make any reads yet. Gink isn't quite his full aggressive self so far. Don't get drawn into that argument with him. No good can come of it. Ninja has an odd thing going.

I read Ninja’s thing as character. What else could it be? And no, I wasn’t intending to get into an argument with Gink, we’ve already hashed it out in the Day 0 Thread. If we wants to continue, I’ll redirect him there.The Mad 1.0 and 2.0 voting is so much a flimsy argument at the moment that it seems foolish to vote for either, so I’ll just watch and wait for now, seeing who to vote for tomorrow. As I’ve said countless times, I don’t like joke voting.

Character is a good cover story. His behavior beyond the character is not all the different, though, now that they’ve called him out on it. I was of the same opinion as you on joke voting before, but I’ve come around. Notice that the joke votes have kickstarted the conversation. I don’t feel a day one hanging is an absolute must, but I like what the threat does. That said, don’t get involved with the 1.0 vs 2.0 voting. It’s against your stated position on joke voting which will just make you look like scum.

Never fear, my good man, I wouldn’t get involved even if it still was ongoing. Joke voting to kickstart conversation I’m OK with. But once the conversation has begun, why would everybody else have to joke vote just to joke vote? I think that after the first 3 or 4 votes, especially if they’re on the same player, the votes are no longer jokes. Though you know, it does occur to me: You seem mighty desperate to dissuade me from joining the 1.0 vs 2.0 vote, and Gink does have a point in making it seem like you have something to hide. . . why so fidgety?

Just having fun, a concept which is foreign to Gink. He’s looking a bit fidgety himself. Notice the quiet was followed quickly by accusations all over the place. Let’s see what happens when I flip it on him.

Ovi had some odd remarks in there. While Mad and I couched votes against him with jokes, just accusing anyone that’s voted thus far is suspicious in and of itself.

Why? He’s got a point. Statistically, at least 1 scum jumps on the day 1 vote wagon, so claiming that 1 of those 5 are scum is accurate.

On a different note, I take it you initiated the contact that led me to this document?

Nope. We got paired by Onidsen. The certainty of ovi's statement is what struck me. It was also just a list full of people that are typically active on day one. It's not out of the norm for him, but his normal activity is usually pretty damned scummy

I agree that his behavior normally can be taken as scummy, given that he can subtly lead the conversation and votes by his analyses being biased, but if he’s town, his analyses are usually fairly accurate. They’re more in depth than Bigg’s Lists, which categorize people with but a sentence of explanation. Anyways, he’s at L-2 now, so we’ll see what happens. Given that I think he’s gonna die, I hope he’s scum.

Does it not seem strange to you, however, that first everybody was on the Mad bandwagon, then as soon as 1 person, who people are also suspicious of, criticized 1 post of ovi, 4 people rapidly voted him? Just because he used 1 word that expressed certainty rather than uncertainty? I can understand reprimanding him, questioning his conviction, but lynching? Just for 1 word? Something seems off, like the scum are taking advantage of his slip to rapidly lynch him. This would fit in perfectly with the idea that the Mad v Mad thing is contrived, which in turn implicates you. You did, after all, start the voting on ovinomanc3r.

It's giving some pretty good info, though. That narrows it down to either Mad, or someone pushing the Mad vs Mad thing being a tell. Caldias joining the vote on ovi to put him at -2 while saying very little has my attention. I'm not gonna call anyone on it just so we can see who is brave enough to take it even further. If we hang Ovi, and Gink is in that vote (which he currently is), it will be interesting to see him justify and deflect it.

Indeed, as it will for all who voted him.

Ok, seriously is Ovi on shrooms or something? I can't make heads or tails of that last post.

Neither can I, but if he truly is claiming, Demo experts is the only match I can find, and that from his bombing with phantoms comments - though force assistance is another option, ‘cept he said he’s not a jedi. It doesn’t make sense!

On a different note, we should start thinking of who to add to the chat, come tonight. Who do you think is ‘most worthy’? I don’t see anyone I trust quite that much yet.

I think he's claiming the Scout. Look at the first line. So this is gonna sound crazy, but I'd like to pull in Ovi if he survives the day. At this point he's reading pretty town. I'm keeping my vote there to see if the Scum take the honey pot. If they do it's still valuable information. If they don't, I don't trust anyone else enough to bring in. It think it should be Ovi or nobody.

I don’t see the Scout connection, but I guess adding him is OK. We’ll just have to be careful not to give anything away. Man it would be annoying if it turned out you both are scum.

“Scout - Though you are not a Jedi…” Stealthing and scouting tend to go hand in hand with sci-fi. I'm kinda grasping at straws to be honest. That is a super vague claim. Like I said, I'm going to just assume you're town and Onisden isn't that much of a ****. Otherwise I'm just gonna go crazy analyzing you and the town at the same time in two different places.

OK. Well that means we have to save ovinomanc3r, which means we have to get 3 other people to vote for somebody else, so as to have a majority of 5 by the end of the day. Don’t forget that it’s the highest number of votes, even if that is 1.

Not sure I believe Gink's Doc claim. His advice for being the doc is to lay low, which he has more in this game than usual. Caldias is looking pretty fishy. Seems pretty apt to vote someone out on the thinnest pretext.

I don’t believe Gink. I mean, there’s a possibility that he’s the doc, but I’m inclined to think that it’s a last minute desperate claim. Maybe he’s even trying to call out the real doc?

I think if Gink flips town, Biggs is next in the crosshairs. I'm definitely not touching that vote, though. Mad and I’s shenanigans has already drawn too much ire.


Definitely. If Gink turns out to actually have been the doc, then Biggs is next.

What you have to say now Ninja?

BOOP.

Interpretation:

I'm doing the deflecting? That is just proof you were in a chat with the Nipster. I have the same reservations he did.

I never have deflected from voting for Biggs. I owned it. Still do. Hell I'm still like 25% on the fact that those two are behind the whole **** thing.

What did you do?

I'll review.the decision making process.

Calidus is looking slightly suspicious...as are a few others...let see how it plays out

The chat seems real.

However, it doesn't guarantee Truthiness being townie or whoever he joined.

But we already know that... I think.<_<

Don't really have anything more to add. I'm the town technician. There's my day one chat (you get day two if the other participant dies). All my cards are on the table. Who's next? More people need to get talking. I'm (clearly) going nuts doing all the talking.

Okay, nothing really reads too suspicious to me

Actually you said something that made me trust you, at least for today.

On a more analytical basis:

Truth and mad's joke votes seem to have a something more in there

Which ones? The Highlander votes or the Ovi votes?

Beep. Buzz. BEEP.

Interpretation:

I totally agree with you on this. Guys I know it is Saturday (I've been busy too) but we need a lot more discussion.

@Onidsenwould you mind linking day 2 please?
