Micro 998 | The Binding of Isaac Mafia | Game Over

[Costello]

Yep, thanks for reminding me, trying to milk it for all I can atm.

I've preferred seeing the Flea, Ydrasse, and Hectic converations without me in the center but if anyone has any questions for me now might be a good time to ask.

[Hectic]

There’s also another game we played I located while grabbing that one
Idr what farkran was but I was town in it

Yeah, this part is weird. Like, he "located" the game which means he opened it. But posted this first before checking what Farkran's alignment was

[Costello]

How much experience do you have with Gamma, Hectic?

Is meta factoring into your read at all?

[Hectic]

I've got quite a lot of experience with him. He's free flowing as town while more stilted as scum. Usually I just catch him by seeing reasoning that looks fake

That sequence of posts I

think

are more like his town-meta, the way he's talking through his thought process while he looks the games up

Ah, let me check a quick scumgame of his actually

Okay, his last scumgame has more meaningless comments/questions, so I think that Farkran spiel is good

Why is Jadakiss as hard as it gets?



(can't think of anything else)

[Costello]

I also strongly agree with you on Farkran but am curious to see a more concrete perspective on that slot from you and your experience with them.

completely fuckin useless

do you feel I've helped you sort me?

not particularly, would be bold scumplay, but if we play a round of likely alt of...

it probably does not result in this being alignment indicative

though i wonder about spacing after quotes

I read this game too and it's definitely a departure, my fear is more that it seemed to come under pressure to deliver something solid.

It's very plausible to me that he thought he got shot back on page 8 and immediately shut up as scum.

What about my play afterwards?

Sorry to force you to talk about me more, I know there's already a lot of frustration around how I handled the day but I'm just finding it really hard to get a handle on you so am fumbling in the dark a bit.

What does this mean

[madeline]

response something along the lines of

'what do you want from me'

when catboi said it was painful

seemed goodguy indicative

So I realize this isn't a direct quote, but the town-indicative action I think you're describing comes from honesty mixed with a bit of frustration about doing his best, as opposed to trying to puzzle out specifically what he needs to do to turn it around.

Wdym
I wanted to get something started but had other things to do as well, so I just posted enough to get the ball rolling

I think the real quote has the opposite behavior, though, of immediately going more on the defensive side.

I know the interpretation I'm making of your point is really tenuous, so sorry if it's off at all.

hm, the interpretation of my point is pretty good, though i guess i don't understand why this defensiveness would be mafia indicative; it seems in line with like 'what do you want' 'why are you jumping on me when i've just began posting' sort of feeling to me

[madeline]

gamma coldrunning the game

What does this mean

like out of time running through it not where we are

like if there's a live tennis match in the third set and you're tweeting about the first few points

and we assume you're going to get there but in the meantime like just going through it

[Gamma Emerald]

I am very not thrilled with bugspray, for lack of a better word.

Please play the mafia game.

When I was scum with bugspray they were a non-factor for a bit of D1 and when they did post it wasn’t really substantial

like how you decided to go with 'vengeful' instead of 'replacement-elimination'

seems unplanned but

would have been as either alignment, so

I’m current now though? I don’t like that portrayal of my posting

[madeline]

? it's hard to evaluate that style of posting and that's what i had to look at

[Gamma Emerald]

Other than that i find myself agreeing with ydrasse more than i wanted to. What do you think about this, ydrasse? Should i be worried?

Why do you expect to Ydrasse a certain amount? Why ask this question?

I don't know ydrasse so the question was mostly rhetorical/aimed at getting a conversation going, but i like their answers so far. After a slow start she seems to be involved and willing to contribute with her own insight and questioning, so eh, either town or very good scum i'd say [cit.]

But yeah leaning town on her rn.

Let's talk about bugspray a bit though, since i feel i have overlooked his slot so far. My opinion of him is mostly based on 44, 49 and 55 because they sounded really sincere to me, i shared the same thoughts at the time (after i realized that costello was actually hammered and it wasn't just fake) and i think scum wouldn't have had the readiness to fake that kind of disappointment. That being said, the contribution to the gamestate isn't that great. Wouldn't shoot him as my first option rn anyways.

those posts (specifically the first 2) feel the opposite of genuine

[Hectic]

You've linked one post there, Gamma

Costello, I'm not confident Farkran is town, but I can see all of his reasoning being stuff he believes in, even if I don't agree on all of it. His transparent playstyle means he'll probably spew enough stuff that will give us plenty to solve him down the line, so that's my main reason for thinking he's a bad shot today

[Costello]

I didn't really want the question of my alignment hanging around for the start/have town already be looking ahead to the question of whether or not to policyvote me the next day.

At some point I had to reveal it, though, since it's just hardtrolling/seemingly scumclaiming if I miss. I chose to reveal it during a lull to hopefully spur some more activity, and more specifically I was hoping that in the event you had checked out completely dejected thinking "what a fucking moron we're losing both our miselims", you might come back to the game from any number of angles (pushing me, being a bit more active knowing this didn't seriously fuck us over even if you're still upset, etc.)

[Gamma Emerald]

I think Costello is overall town for he’s played this twilight
There’s like 2 solid scum stratagems I can see for the role that he hasn’t seemed to be employing, plus his engagement with everyone feels genuine

I only got my vibe of the game off the first two Farkran posts
I don’t really recall the vibe shifting that much in any early stage

I think he's referring to the quoted post and the very first one nested inside.

I don't think he's been blatantly town but his positioning here is pretty OK and the thought processes about what I'd expect after skimming some games.

[Hectic]

Ah, that makes more sense
