RE: Nostalgfia Day 2 - Death comes at some time - AgentBlue - 05-07-2018
I didn't get anything last night, I don't think. But I still have my present, which I'm still leery about opening.
RE: Nostalgfia Day 2 - Death comes at some time - Robust Laser - 05-07-2018
afaik opening the present itself is safe.

Well, some things auto-activate to your detriment when you receive them, like the Spring I previously mentioned getting. Hopefully there's nothing like a bomb that just straight out kills you, that would be a level of bastardry well beyond.

IRL I got to grade like 50 homeworks yesterday which was a real hoot. Later today I get to proctor and grade a final! ITMG (in this mafia game) I am pretty lost. I think people are mainly going on hunches right now that I don't really understand? The item stuff just seems like chaos so I'm not even trying to think about deducing anything from it right now.
Like I said on Day 1, there were a number of people who voted to get people almost to soft lynch with little to no explanation at the time. I didn't like that very much. Those people, to repeat: awkwardcarapace, nercania-orccelga, Solaris, Sunspider, Mirdini. awkward, Sunspider, and Mirdini have later given at least some kind of justification. So, I'm keeping an eye on those people but especially on n-o and Solaris.
Today, n-o is sticking with "being a dog is suspicious" to put a vote on wheat, which feels like nothing to me. Why is being a dog suspicious?
As far as last night, we got a dead Sailor, which given their interaction with the game on day 1 doesn't give us much to go on. seedy and Granolaman (whom I know are experienced enough at Mafia that I generally trust their analysis) peg this as a "chivalrous" mafia action to keep active people in the game, and (Nola directly, I think also this is what seedy was driving at) that this casts suspicion on people who didn't want to lynch day one. But couldn't it also just be that going after Sailor provides little information for us to go on?
In any case, for the time being, I should put my vote where my mouth is, at least to keep things moving.
Vote nercania-orccelga
RE: Nostalgfia Day 2 - Death comes at some time - seedy - 05-08-2018
what I was thinking of is much more meta than just "people who didn't want to lynch d1" which is why I'm not getting into it (besides, a team would really just need one strong/experienced personality to push for that play and it wouldn't matter how the rest of the team had behaved d1)
but you're right that a lack of info is also good for scum. overall a decent post from akumu. I'm not too into lynching nercania rn but boxes gotta be ticked. I'd also like to see more from awkwardcarapace

But death dog is really ominous and I'm not feeling comfortable with the bandwagon here especially with the bomb discourse floating around (though honestly I'm awful at mafia meta so I don't know whether that was just thrown out there as a hypothesis or a real risk o_O)I didn't like you coming in and giving vague opinions on both of the main Things Happening...if you don't think wheat's bit is scummy, then what do you think of the actual content? what do you think of the people on their wagon? if you had to decide if sunspider was scum or no, which way would you fall? and what do you think of moi?
3) I'm still not sure about Spoids, but it is a truism that being active should not equate to being scummy. Still, the impression I keep getting is a lot of words and not much in the way of content or reads? I guess that's what fishing is all about. Lookit me I'm fishing too
basically agen I'm pressuring you cuz you're just on that edge of sorta doing things and sorta not actually doing anything. give me reads on the wagons and on the people who came in to push those wagons closer to soft (did anyone actually fully get to soft at any point yesterday?)
granolaman do you still want CSJ and/or Sunspider to die

RE: Nostalgfia Day 2 - Death comes at some time - Granolaman - 05-08-2018
So yeah after looking back into it the people I caught harboring no lynch sympathies were Pala, a52, Wheat, RL and myself. I'm not allowed to objectively read myself, and I'm currently feeling good towards Pala. If Wheat were scum and decided to waste all D1 on dog crimes, kill a info-less lurker, and then continue doggery for D2 I might actually hate them. Let's assume we live in a world where that kind of monster doesn't exist.
I'm not getting overly scummy vibes from RL or a52 yet so I think this train of thought might be a deadend. However both these players need to be talking more than they are now. Could I get both of y'all's thoughts on some of the conflicts from yesterday (Spoids/Wheat, me/CSJ, lurker hunting, etc)
Potentially relevant, we also had plenty of people content to leave their votes on lurkers at day end yesterday.
@seedy I still consider CSJ/Sunspider scumbuddies a strong likelihood, but like the fact that no one else is voting CSJ is making me paranoid and I could really use a couple other people weighing in on his post qualities or his interactions with me. Meanwhile Sunspider literally hasn't posted since I suggested they were scumbuddies so there's nothing more I can analyze there.
RE: Nostalgfia Day 2 - Death comes at some time - Palamedes - 05-08-2018
I'll post more of merit when I'm not on the bus but I had thought I went on record as not liking CSJ (for different reasons, but I do feel where you're coming from somewhat) so I don't think you're alone there granola. I had also thought thatseedy expressed some okayness with the no lynch concept but I could be misremembering and also I feel alrightish on that front so I'm probably not going to pursue it today when I have much better bets to go on.
RE: Nostalgfia Day 2 - Death comes at some time - Cat - 05-08-2018
Has anyone else not opened their present?
RE: Nostalgfia Day 2 - Death comes at some time - Solaris - 05-08-2018
fancy magic name thing Wrote:Spring: takes one of your items and takes it to another player at night, selected randomly. this may include already active items. active upon being received.
huh the item database has shrimpteresting information
to not continue on my wonderful tangents of currently focusing on this aspect of this game, i dont know if we should actually talk at length about the presents.
opening your present seems to be safe but i think that part of the nature of this game with items and stuff is that there's potentially a fake item maker or a bomber of some sort
@pala: seedy's opinion on not lynching was "it probably wont actually happen" more than that they didnt want it
@seedy: you're my fwiend! im ambivalent on mirdini though rn? but that said he's also like, Currently A Mood that if he misbehaves i will dislike him actively so thats 3.5 stars The Spark Could Be There
i dont remember who i'm voting for but i dont know if i like some of the things goings on with votes, i do not very much like CSJ, granolamans, as i said maybe mirdini, and i am maybe Hurm with coldblooded, cat, palamedes, and wheat still ig
thats too many people! oh no!
my very nice brain likes seedy and akumu i suppose
nercania-orccelga still voting wheat is such a wild move that im willing to let them go on for a bit before settling there i think
RE: Nostalgfia Day 2 - Death comes at some time - Solaris - 05-08-2018
the thing i forgot to list on that thing is, if you open your present dont say the actual name of the item without looking up what it does in the fancy item database
starting tmoz we should blea more careful about presents bc this game feels like, with all the items, exchanging, and such, could have either a bomb mechanic or fake items
RE: Nostalgfia Day 2 - Death comes at some time - Pharmacy - 05-08-2018
I THINK I might got a joke ™ item.
RE: Nostalgfia Day 2 - Death comes at some time - seedy - 05-08-2018
I mean, I genuinely wasn't that into lynching someone by the end...but I think that "kills SS in the night and then posts a theory the next day that can be interpreted as incriminating them" would be a kind of wild maf strategy soooo
to me CSJ is...being very scummy but in such a casual offhanded "I just posted this without thinking too hard about it" (like the constant fishing/theorizing wrt items) that I'm tempted to say town just cuz of the nonchalance...but if sunspider is maf then I could definitely see where you're coming from
RE: Nostalgfia Day 2 - Death comes at some time - CSJ - 05-08-2018
I think it's a very long vow to say that the kill was 'chivalrous'. The last people mafia would kill are those stirring up trouble and generally being distracting. Glad we're being more careful with item chat now; too easy to lie about items this early.
I doubt the presence of bombs, but if there are books floating around like schazer's, who knows.
RE: Nostalgfia Day 2 - Death comes at some time - seedy - 05-08-2018
doin these ol' things again
Robottobt(1) - Palamedes
granolaman(1) - Solaris
AgentBlue(1) - seedy
Schazer(1) - CSJ
Wheat(1) - nercania-orccelga
Akumu(1) - Schazer
nercania-orccelga(2) - Wheat, Akumu
Abstaining (11): Sunspider, Robust Laser, AgentBlue, Robottobt, [b]Mirdini/b], [b]Coldblooded/b], awkwardcarapace, a52, Granolaman, Pharmacy, Cat
for fun I've bolded everyone on the abstaining list who hasn't checked in yet, everyone else has checked in but hasn't voted
Countdown to Day End
soft and hard aren't listed but I assume same as yesterday?
RE: Nostalgfia Day 2 - Death comes at some time - seedy - 05-08-2018
CSJ it is TRULY wild that you are saying you're glad the item chat is dying down when you've been a solid 1/4 of it. especially since you follow it with more speculation
just wondering, do we all have different definitions of fishing? I always used it as an abbreviation of rolefishing--people asking questions about items and roles were scummy cuz they're fishing for answers to try and find out what town has or doesn't have. but I'm seeing people use it seemingly to mean...making lots of posts??
anyways doing the votals was interesting, I had missed this sort of weird vote

Voting Schazer
are you voting schaz solely on gut instinct or what?
Schazer's vote for Akumu is also kind of odd. I'm curious what warranted it other than "wanting attention"

I think all of you are drumming up something out of nothing to redirect blame away from yourselves, either because you're scum (which has to be true for at least some of you), or, more commonly, because you're afraid others will do the same to you.
None of you have done anything truly incriminating -- at least, not more than anybody else, you've all been a little bit susp -- which is why I'm mostly going to be sitting here gathering information.
@Pharmacy, why are you voting against Wheat? Can you explain in detail?
RE: Nostalgfia Day 2 - Death comes at some time - Pharmacy - 05-08-2018
@a52, the dog thing is a little...coy.
coy-ote.
ha ha!
RE: Nostalgfia Day 2 - Death comes at some time - Granolaman - 05-08-2018
Yeah no you don't get to hide on the sideline.
Get in the fray and form some opinions or die.
Vote: a52
RE: Nostalgfia Day 2 - Death comes at some time - CSJ - 05-08-2018
Scumfishing is a thing too; making particular comments and throwing out lines specifically to draw out scum-positive responses.
Schazer's voting has been all over the place and immediately jumping on the idea of a hospital was a big departure from their reserved D1 posting. Votes that confuse me are granola accusing spider and me pairing yet voting solaris, pharm joining nec on wheat and the sheer volume of abstentions.

Hi Pharms, what are your thoughts on Sunspider, Nercania, and CSJ?
RE: Nostalgfia Day 2 - Death comes at some time - Coldblooded - 05-08-2018
(Hey Granola, I'm trying to investigate your Sunspider/CSJ theory, but my laptop exploded recently and it's a bit slow going trying to reread on mobile. Are there any particular posts that stood out to you here between these two?)
RE: Nostalgfia Day 2 - Death comes at some time - CSJ - 05-08-2018
You know, the person you first voted for before switching while I was typing. Lol, bait.

Literally my first vote all day.
Previously it was on you.
This is incredibly verifiable.
@CB: the connection is primarily the bomb defense, spoids hasn't shown up since then. Spoids seemed a little scummy before dropping off the map, but CSJ has been lighting up the scumdar all game and I'm barely seeing anyone mention it which is where the paranoia's setting in.
RE: Nostalgfia Day 2 - Death comes at some time - Granolaman - 05-08-2018
You seem to be reading seedy's votals backwards.
