Micro 566: WORD SNEAK MAFIA! (Game OvER!!!)

[droog]

This is a normal,

mountainous game of Mafia

! There is only one difference: WORD SNEAK! Each night phase, the mod will you give you a list of five randomly generated (but fair) words that you MUST try to work into your posts as seamlessly as possible. Then, during the day or night, send the mod the words that you think each person had. Whoever guesses the most words CORRECTLY gets an extra vote the next day phase. 6 VTs,

1 Cop

, and 2 goons.

[droog]

Oh god now I'm not only analyzing people's posts for scum motivation I'm also dissecting them for word sneak motivation

the setup is cool but just a distraction
there's no penalty if i dont use all the words right

[droog]

Didn't you say you loved it? You realize only several people said they didnt understand the logic. Whats with hoppig on the popular opinion bandwagon?

"Several people" were a vocal minority and me saying I "loved it" happened

before TMWSTW's logic was explained.

I chuckled at the RVS self-voting, so sue me. Anti-town is fine during RVS I say, it's all tomfoolery. I'm reading him as town right now only because of his apparent honesty, we'll see where that goes. UNVOTE:

is that what you call it

[droog]

@FA, nothing spectacular, no one attacking or defending me has done anything to stand out, with both sides have logical arguments. Me personally beveling my move is defend-able in logic, but poor in execution. The stand outs being Postie for the vote and follow up discussion, and Lilith the started asking questions which is good, but then they let Postie do the actual accusations while just agreeing, and they have yet to vote me which seems odd. I'm also waiting for Guilty Lion, see what they have to say.

VOTE: Lilith yeah I could see cautious scum here.

I didn't vote you because I didn't think it was scummy and I never said it was, I said I didn't understand why you would self-vote because I don't think it helps us.

Jumping on me for that after the fact--it happened like a page ago and you've posted since then, so why didn't you say this earlier or vote me when it happened?--that seems pretty scummy to me, though.

VOTE: TMWSTW

man did his neat voting trick to get reactions
he then voted you because he didnt like your reaction

what about that sequence is scummy
please explain

[droog]

I'll get to this game again properly tomorrow, but TMWSTW is looking townier now for how he seems to be persistently making attempts to form reads and reevaluating them where necessary.

UNVOTE:

For now I'll

VOTE: lilac

Not enough scumhunting going on. Although my vote could easily be on Davsto too at this point.

this feels lke a backoff
after everyone else starts liking man a bit more
its too artistic

[droog]

Ehh, okay. You've been cautious enough so far that if you were scum, you probably would have just PM'd the mod to avoid someone questioning you on your question, like now.

I figured Frozen was trying to egg me on in order to get me to react to Postie’s vote on me, but I ignored it because I didn’t want to play that silly game. Then she continued egging me on, which probably drew the attention of Wednesday. It looks like she decided to go ahead and vote me since her plan didn’t work the way she hoped it would. I find it scummy how she waited for another person to cast a vote on me before she added herself to the bandwagon, when she clearly had already been trying pressure me. Then, oddly enough, she proceeds to use my RVS like tendencies as her reason to finally nail me.

i know this is defending y own slot but

"frozen had this convuleted plan"
"she clearly failed!"
"that means she's scum"

[droog]

151 is a good post
i like glion generally
he also isnt spending too much time focusing on the word sneak
town read there

[droog]

for some reason i agree with lilac's 176 agaist post
yet i would also vote lilac for the way she wrote 176
not sure what to think about that yet

[droog]

I'm super torn on the newest Lilac post,

it makes me feel like Allan Rickman’s lost dog

,

[droog]

We could really use some more defense from lilac. She gut pinged me town but she's got many unanswered questions/accusations charged towards her and if she's a townie letting herself become the deadline lynch is not gonna help us out whatsoever. I can go for a Davsto/FA counterwagon to try to get some more juicy reads and associatives.

i actually liie that glion went after my lurk slot
hes my only strong townread atm

[droog]

im all caught up
im having a hard time finding scum reads
and pages 8-9 were really messy

i really only have a few townreads

glion (see above)
man (like his rvs)
dave (gut)

id vote almost anywhere else
lical lilith and post are all fine for me

[droog]

UNVOTE: for now
i want a bit more discussion before a final voet
theres nt enough going on for a fast flip to help tomorrow

[droog]

artistic -> artificial

[droog]

What's your read on Wednesday?

very null
hes someone i want to interact with i think

[droog]

im not going to start a vanity wagon
i dont see any counters to lilac
im not opposed to a lilac wagon

but barring any major read changes im going to sit back
and try to see what else there is to do today
i will definitely hammer if needed

[droog]

you took the vote back
but i dont remember taking the logic back

[droog]

ok
that works for me then

[droog]

Any other reads to share? And do you have any other questions for me?

i was going to iso you to see and was surprised
nothing you said at the time struck me but
you have too big a postcount for me to not try

[droog]

why are you sheeping man's wednesday case
when you're also worried about the 'collywobble'

[droog]

VOTE: wednesday

[droog]

UNVOTE:
i was hoping for something more exciting
when i voted like that to tie two wagons up

[droog]

im on the sawe wavelength as glion

[droog]

for #2 see 301
for 1 i have to reread that chunk

[droog]

for #2 see 301
for 1 i have to reread that chunk

Did you have a reason beyond "I'll see what people do when I vote wednesday"? Or was that it?

i did not

[droog]

Sorry. Post 82 is what I am refering to. You're supposed to read my mind postie. Lilac was self aware that her "parked vote" was atteacting attention. In reality only you postie were voting lilac. She called her vote partially random which means she saw something there t further says she wasn't intending to scum read him 'a serious case against him'. So she was making a case. I think lilac needs more pressure.

Right so this is in direct response to

Well I'd assume the "partially random" thing meant that it wasn't fully random because she gave a reason, but it wasn't a "serious case" because the reason was an RVS-ish one. Makes sense to me and doesn't strike me as backpeddling at all.

So Wednesday later saying that the disagreement was already explained doesn't make sense because Postie was responding to that.
Person A Gives Argument A
Person B Disputes Argument A with Argument B
Person A says they disagree with Argument B
Berson B asks why
Person A says because Argument A and that doesn't work, they need to elaborate. Yes, all caught up, sorry.

Okay, I was confused before, this clears things up for me. I didn't catch the order of the posts.

Well I think this is a good time to

VOTE: Wednesday

this is the post i was referring to

[droog]

K after that latest post I'm thinking town on lilac and I'm pretty baffled at how confident some of you are that she's scum. That Postie vote makes no sense coming from scum, would expect her to vote lilith there.

Lilith you think she's probably town by virtue of the pressure on her, why aren't you pushing on those people? What are your reads on Wednesday and FA?

Never said lilac was town, I said I think her wagon is not entirely town, but that doesn't preclude scumbuddies distancing themselves. However I did like her 176 for the reasons outlined by TMWSTW. Her 183 is iffy and I'd like some more clarification on that, and an explanation of how she came to her other townreads, because if it's only through eliminating her scumreads then that's a bad way of forming townreads and I can see that as coming from scum.

As for Wednesday and FA--I'm still trying to figure out FA, but I liked her 182 and 188 and that has me slightly leaning town on her. Wednesday, as you've pointed out, seems incredibly confident that lilac is scum which is strange and gives me scummy vibes. She has yet to post since lilac's 176, which may change things though. Also she keeps saying "I expect you to read my mind" which I do not see as very towny but that could be an idiosyncrasy.

admittedly i did skim
i guess what concerns me is the timing

youve been honest about showing
your thoughts as they change

but im wondering why that was the right moment t ovote wednesday
it seems a little at odds with your conversation with man

[droog]

i can see the wednesday push
but so far nothings convinced me
will take a second look at that iso
and exp's new case

[droog]

agree with dav

[droog]

^ that makes me want to hammer

[droog]

intent to hammer

[droog]

i dont really havea strong scumread here
but refusal to claim was bad

fine letting exp go for now
since that slot is poisting
