[Mafia] Rebel Runners - Day 1

By Onidsen, in Star Wars: Armada Off-Topic

Ardaedhel: My strongest town lean. From his few posts I get a strong townie vibe; his initial claim of feeling overwhelmed seems legit, and later, the underlined part seems like a townie way of analyzing:

Only have a couple minutes to post, but I'm pretty torn. On the one hand, that vote bloc deal offer looks super hinky. On the other, it's also super obvious, which makes me wary of it being used as manipulation.

But what would be the intended point if it were? Sacrifice one scum to protect the others by naming them in the accusation, possibly?

I'll have to think, but for now gotta run.

Reinforced as well by his next post:

From a meta game perspective, seems like the new guy would be a weird choice of sacrifice if it were a sacrificial gambit.

WigTii, GhostofNobodyInParticular, ovinomanc3r: Small town vibes with the first two from their initial posts; ovino I'm not interested for the moment and can live a little longer. These three belong to the "there's bigger fish to fry" pile.

EbonHawk: My biggest 180° shift. Upon reread, we have this reaction to early pressure:

Chill the bean vis, just continuing the thread on Freudian slips... didn't accuse him of being scum did i

2nd game you two have jumped me D1 for nothing... just sayin

The second quote came only after 1 minute later. In that second quote he seems to get more annoyed for what he considers unjustified pressure. It's a town reaction. When called guilty, town and scum react differently: town feels upset at first, then starts to get more annoyed and worried over time; scum overreacts at first, then tries to calm himself upon time.

Later on, we have this:

Roles with smuggler backgrounds:

pilot, scout, possibly zealot.

roles that don't have a smuggling background:

investigator, Jedi padawan, hacker, the scum

also for everyone else, I'm not rolefishing I don't care about roles yet

For me at least, this feels like an honest attempt to contribute. Town points

Overall EbonHawk has been around all the time too, he didn't disappear when pressured, he's been worried about it, but not with scummy overreaction.

Ginkapo: Currently null. I liked the way he began to put pressure on Toad. As time has go on though, it's like he rested on that "case" and didn't do much else. His case on Ebon is terrible, anyone can quote posts from people, say "interesting", and put the appearance of scumhunting. Also, the failure in achieving the alliance tells me he feels uncomfortable being the center of attention. Despite all this, he can live for today.

uups, double post. Have to run now. Anyone else not on the above list can die, either for being scummy (Toad), useless inactive slots (Broba, JJs, CNinja, PodRacer) or for having a bunch of posts with no substance at all (Visovics, Madghmire)

Is that some kind of old school scum list?

I won't care if that keeps me alive a bit more. I am usually more valuable late-game. My reading skills suck.

However with 4 hours left and a IA campaign ahead I will vote.

But I don't have any idea where I would start...

## vote Ebon

For role fishing. I don't think it was enough but is more than anything else.

Erm. No idea. Rajam seems the most suspicious, but only because I disagree with what I have seen of his reasoning. I do not think it warrants a vote quite yet, but most certainly investigation. Should nothing else happen for the rest of the day, I might vote him for lack of any other reads, but that hardly makes it a solid reason.

This is my thoughts, I don't know enough about him to know his play yet, it's certainly intriging me and I can see him as scum or town rn

I also just returned from a darkened theater. Just a reminder I will be absent all day tomorrow due to being at a family reunion with no cell signal. Since that could leave me gone at the end of the day I will put a vote in now.

##vote Ebon Hawk

I don’t feel confident enough about potential reads on Rajam anyone else for that matter. While Rajam’s play has me concerned, it came off right away as an experienced player trying to push hard day 1, his vote suggestion is still giving me pause though.

The reason why I’m voting for ebon. Much of his early conversation felt odd to me, like it was slightly forced. The slight weak rolefishing also influenced me. I’m not really sold on this one, but it’s the best guy feeling I have day 1.

You love putting votes without much on me, your play strikes me like my first game when I died N1 due to you and pod and you voted me with some weak sauce arguments....

dont know about pod yet but reckon this is more than de ja vu so ##vote JJ

Ahahah gink I would've thought better of you, and would've thought you'd of put on a better show but I'm seeing straight though you, FYI town if I die my top 4 rn

JJ

Gink

Pod

Rajam

kinda also a bit salty with the mafia ATM for consontalty getting jumped on early days for such weak sauce stuff all the time

All of JJ, Gink, Pod, and Rajam have used each other's points, the same Weak weak rolefishing claim yet again... (like vis as SK last game) and all seem to be pulling the same game with different play styles...

I believe at least 3/4 of them is scum from D1, and that's a strong scum team!

Ebon. Consider timestamps.

One of me and Toad posted quickly without pause for thought.

One of us uncounciously sided with town and one of us did not.

The evidence is all there. If I didnt have a track record of being silvertongued this would be sufficient to clear me.

A set up where partial information is known to all from the start.

All you really need to know is that me and Mad are unlikely to slip up if scum at any point. Truth is getting to be a pretty good town leader.

Varying degrees of ability in everyone else.

@TheToad that took you far to long to write.

Going through the past post of all 4 picking out the interesting bits

On 14/12/2017 at 11:00 PM, Rajam said:

Help me lynch either Caribbean/EbonHawk toDay, and I'll help you lynch Toad toMorrow. Deal?

Who would you pick between Caribbean/Ebon tho?

Nah bruv, mans on a watching tip ya get me?

Rajams a player.

skkrrt.

18 hours ago, Rajam said:

@Ginkapo my offer's still up. Deal/no deal? I'm even willing to lynch Toad first toDay. If yes, who do we lynch later, Ebon or CaribbeanNinja?

17 hours ago, Ginkapo said:

You first.

@JJs Juggernaut I'm not pushing a lynch on Toad from that as its not quite enough, but I do want it noted.

Very quick jump to attack. Similar mistake and then a careful thought out defence that actually seemed unlikely. Thinks and refers to himself in the third person? Yeah right.

Pod just seemed like an egotistical git, though I was hoping he would shed some light on it.

I dont get Rajam. Cant decide as he isnt making typical newb mistakes but seems very nieve.

Ebon I dont like so I will read through all his posts tomorrow. My gut says he is trying too hard.

Good distancing

I agree it was a rubbish post and wanted to see your response.

All you have done so far this game is say "interesting", its appaling.

If you are happy to think I am scum for copycating then thats tantamount to admittance of guilt in my book.

I think 3 scum ATM so main would be JJ, gink, Pod

rajam and broba are my weak reads for the 4th if there is one..

rajams posts I've put out for others to look and and remember for tomorrow, need to keep his posts fresh to evaluate him... thinking town but can't shake the scum feeling from the back of my mind.. so giving the benefit of the doubt for now..

broba jsut seems fishy but I always think you do (sorry broba)

That's not all I've don't this game though is it, and you know that so does everyone but making it look like that, good scum move

Do you want me to go find the two posts I didnt quote? They were more of the same.

Bless you, fella I'm talking about your weak reasoning.

from your opinion all I've added to the game is 'intresting' but that's jsut you reply to all my posts, not what I'm actually saying, my posts in context where actually aimed at helping as others managed to note. You took the classic scum move of a misdirection though by posting and trying to make the opposite thought.... I mean good try but I see straight through you gink, had you pegged as scum early.

ive added what I always add to the game, and I like to think it's been helpful in the past and I've always managed to read 1-2 scum in a game....

so as said you know interesting is not all I've added but....

it's interesting you bring such a weak argument....

high sucm read if I wasn't also sure on JJs classic scum play from previous games I'd vote you

@Onidsen can we get a vote count please

We need players online and talking people, not long left and a lot of votes not out there, what's the thoughts of the quiter ones

So, what did toad do that was scummy? Percieved incorrect pronoun usage? Did he do anything that actually merits a vote?

The most reasonable vote I think I saw was Toads vote on Vis, for pushing a weak train. But theres no other votes there and we are low on time.

I’m going to

##unvote ginkapo

and

##vote visovics

for now. I like Rojam’s list, as his reasoning is mostly sound, although I could nitpick a few things but its D1 so a fair degree of intuition and guesswork is to be expected. But I don’t get why he, or for that matter all these other folks, are looking to nail toad to the wall, for using a phrase like “the town” instead of “us”. Am I missing something here? But I feel like this is a thing we’ve done to toad before, and we lost his town aligned services for it.

I’m not at all sold on Ebon as scum right now. Feels similar to last game and I was completely wrong about him.

##vote TheToad

Your freudian slip wouldn’t have looked as scummy, had you not been forcing your posts now referencing yourself in the third person. To me that looks like scum trying to make a mistake be just their playstyle, and so you get the vote

Yeah gonna go with this is scum covering a vote.
