Micro 643: Mafia secret discussion

[xyzzy]

I'd personally prefer someone who most people are town reading over someone who is more neutral, although Alchemist is a good option in the neutral category. there are definitely more people in the "don't kill" category than in the "strongly consider killing" category.

[Gamma Emerald]

Looking at Alchemist's post, killing CR might be a good idea.

[xyzzy]

I think that Comparing Realities is probably a poor choice; a couple people are scum or null reading him, whereas basically everyone is town reading rb. although CR said he was scum lean reading you, so maybe eliminating someone who might push for your lynch is a good idea? I'd rather kill rb first though.

[Gamma Emerald]

Pretty much everyone has me as null/town. I do think rb might be good though.

[xyzzy]

Mas y Menos also pointed out some posts of yours as scummy, so I think it's best to treat pressure on you as a possibility.

[Gamma Emerald]

Okay. Who FoSed MyM?

[Gamma Emerald]

Actually, were there any heavy FoSes on townies?

[xyzzy]

I can't think of any that were really significant that aren't obvious that we need to specifically focus on tonight or tomorrow.

[Gamma Emerald]

Okay. So is rb most townread?

[xyzzy]

that's the sense I got looking through read lists, yes.

[Gamma Emerald]

Okay.
@Mod: does sending in the kill end the night?

[callforjudgement]

No, it doesn't (unless all players, both town and scum, agree to end it early; this is very unlikely to happen at a player count this high and thus I didn't ask). If I ended the night early, it might give away clues as to which timezones the scum were in.

[Gamma Emerald]

Okay.

Gamma Emerald kills rb

[Gamma Emerald]

Anyone we should immediately attack once the Day starts?

[xyzzy]

that's one thing I've not thought about at all; I'm personally kind of tempted to wait for other people to make their move and then try to be second on a viable bandwagon.

[Gamma Emerald]

Okay. I say if anyone starts to really suspect one or both of us, we bus, and only then.

[Gamma Emerald]

Here's my plan for my opening post:

It seems I shall have to break my promise, as they are not offering shoe on the menu.
I don't regret lynching key though. He likely would have kept the town from being able to focus on further Days.

What do you think?

[xyzzy]

Okay. I say if anyone starts to really suspect one or both of us, we bus, and only then.

that sounds like a good plan. if we get to day 3 with both of us alive, we basically just have to wait for anyone to vote for a townie, and then we can both jump on that at the same time.

that seems like a good opening post. I might respond to that by complaining about the self hammer and how that's bad for the town. I'll probably also push heavily again for the idea that we should be doing reads lists that are in two categories (scum/not scum) and lynch the person who people find second scummiest. I might actually do a reads list like that in my very first post but not vote immediately. if I do, I'll put you in the "scum" portion of it, but it'll be a 4:3 split, so it'll be easy to potentially bus you if needed. I'd suggest not following along with the 2-category reads list thing unless 1-2 other people agree to doing that. I think I made a fairly convincing argument that that's good for the town yesterday, but (spoiler warning)

I totally don't think that at all

[Gamma Emerald]

Is there anyone out of there other 5(Alchemist, BlackStar, Más, BTD6, and CR) that could be considered lynchbait?

[xyzzy]

I think Mas y Menos will be an easy one to push for definitely. BTD6_maker and Alchemist21 are secondary possibilities, I think. BlackStar and Comparing Realities seem like pretty unlikely options.

also I just realized it should be a 3:3 split since I shouldn't be in my own reads list, lmao. I hadn't actually thought seriously about that since obviously it's not a genuine list.

also, I'm thinking this for my scum/not scum list: (Alchemist21, Gamma Emerald, Mas y Menos)/(BlackStar, BTD6_maker, Comparing Realities). sound good to you?

[Gamma Emerald]

I'll probably have something similar. Here's mine:
Town: CR, BTD6*, BlackStar*
Scum: Mas, xyzzy, Alchemist*
The asterisks mark reads that may change.

[xyzzy]

cool, seems good. of course, we'll see whether everyone else is into the idea of doing these 3:3 reads lists...

[Gamma Emerald]

If you can, wait as much as you can so we can rig the lynch to hit town.

[xyzzy]

I'm not sure I understand what you're asking me to do? wait to do what?

[Gamma Emerald]

Wait to give your reads.
