Micro 650 Restart: Mislead 2 (Game Over)

[Infinity 324]

I'm not going to distrust someone I don't think is scum

[Not_Mafia]

And if she is scum?

[Infinity 324]

I'd have to take the loss. Nice job spreading paranoia instead of coming up with actual arguments though.

[Infinity 324]

Like if she's town, it's too big of a risk to distrust her when the chances of her picking right is not that high given that I'm in her scumpool. I'd rather just have us both distrust our top scumreads.

[Not_Mafia]

Why should we get the game on your Titus read? Or care about your Titus read at all?

[Not_Mafia]

bet the game*

[Infinity 324]

Because I'm the one making the decision. Why should

I

care about your read on titus when you absolutely refuse to explain it?

[Not_Mafia]

I'm not asking you to care about mine or anyone's read, I'm asking you to care about not putting us in an auto-loss

[Infinity 324]

I care but I have to take the risk here, unless you convince me otherwise...

[Titus]

@Infinity, I like your idea but building on it.

Assuming you and I are town, 4 alive is autowin.

[Titus]

If we reach to two suspects remaining, we can split our vote. Then we win.

[Infinity 324]

True. But NJAC and n_m both think it's between us, and one of them has to be town. I'm trying to engage with them on it but it's getting frustrating since they're not really cooperating...

[Creature]

Not_Mafia (prodded four times)
Realeo
Imperium (Nachomamma8 + Tammy)
Infinity 324 (prodded twice)
Peptobislawl (prodded twice)
NJAC
Creature (prodded once)
Vedith (prodded once)
Titus replaced Blade Dancer (prodded once)

lol

[Titus]

Well, my money is on nm town. Nm scum lurks like no other.

[Titus]

That being said, after your track, we can pound home Creature and Realeo. Then, it shouldn't matter.

[Creature]

Then it'd leave NJAC and Infinity.

[Titus]

Nah,

I am thinking

Me
Infinity
Creature
Realeo
Not Mafia
NJAC

[Creature]

Thought we would get our most confident townreads and leave our 2 biggest paranoias.

[Creature]

Infinity is definitely one.

[Infinity 324]

That being said, after your track, we can pound home Creature and Realeo. Then, it shouldn't matter.

Ok if you also think me real and creature are town, then you're right it shouldn't matter. We just have to hope neither of our mutual townreads is wrong. Creature what do you think?

[Creature]

Infinity 324 let go of the handholds, and started to stagger his way across the moving needles. He could see why Titus was concentrating so hard; following the pattern was not trivial, not really because it was hard to remember, but because there were so many steps to get right in the right order. She was ahead of him, skipping between the footholds in their predefined sequence; and although she didn't make it look

easy

– she was clearly far too nervous for that – she was at least making it look like a natural thing to do. But then, she'd had a lot more practice. He was making rather heavy weather of things, showing his inexperience with this sort of obstacle, but he

was

making progress, and before long everything was starting to flow more easily.

And before long after that, everything stopped. The airy arrangement of the cave had concealed its true size; it was rather smaller than it looked. Titus was back on the ground at the far side; she'd fallen over, because while her movement pattern had been conducive to dancing on a sequence of moving obstacles, it was substantially less good at standing on something solid and stationary. Infinity 324 decided to play things safe, and dived for the ground at the end of the cave as soon as he was close enough, landing with a roll to absorb his momentum. They'd cleared the cave! So what next?

It was getting darker outside, but there was still enough light to see by. And sure enough, even though the light from the cave entrance was dim due to multiple reflections, there was more light, showing a way back out. They took a while to catch their breath, but it was worth moving on before darkness. And as Titus had promised, they ended up at their destination, a series of levers and wheels that could be used to, yet further, reshape the maze. It would soon be almost half complete. That said, there was more than one passage they could open, and more than one route they could take; plenty of sections were still to be completed.

So they brought out their radios, and made sure everyone was still OK. People were thirsty, and hungry, and dizzy from hours of breathing shallowly, but they could still contact the builders of all the remaining sections. They'd been trying to push the boulder into a better location; it seemed impossible that they'd ever get past it without outside help, as that would require somehow pushing it up a long incline and reinserting it back into the ceiling, but they'd managed to get it into a slightly wider space, letting a trickle of vital air into the area; stale, but at least less stale than the air they'd been breathing.

Time to get an agreement on where to go next. Going into the unknown in the remaining fading light was out of the question, but the cave made for a sheltered place to sleep, and nobody was in immediate danger. So they talked, and waited, and talked, and slept, and talked some more. What else could they do?

Nobody died, and nobody was trapped. (Titus must have been a

Maze Engineer

.)
