@laserlab

My current theory is that both the members of the mafia

[laserlab (William)]

I know

[Quin]

Arete was the main voice for clearing him for those so take that at what you will.

[Firekitten]

clearing him for derp clearing him?
that post actually made me think the opposite

the first thought I had when reading that is it’s coming from the POV of being a member of the mafia

[EricKline]

God catty paws has got to be mafia

Like I get coaching can help but, and I’m as guilty of this as anyone, I think taking this at face value can help. And the truth is, she has done almost nothing but scum moves.

@Firekitten

@Brandn03 do you remember if anyone mentioned a similar type thing previously in the thread at this point?

Idk. I wasnt in the game at that point and I honestly didn’t go back and reread the entire thead after I joined.

[Firekitten]

No yeet is an actual thing apparently, which couples great with vengeful.

[Quin]

Yea, I thought that was the logic he presented.

@EricKline

Interested in hearing about how you feel about big cheese, squirrel, and kaylee

cheese - I think Cheese is very likely town, I explained this a bit better partway through my start of day wallpost but I think the specific ways in which he’s been paranoid are characteristic of town!cheese, I also think his EoD vote swapping was townie – I know you don’t agree, but to me it felt like he legitimately didn’t know which wagon was best, which makes me think that he doesn’t have TMI

Squirrel - Squirrel’s honestly been falling for me today, yesterday it felt like he was genuinely poking and prodding in an attempt to solve, today I haven’t really felt that same energy from his posts and there were some things that were kind of weird (like him forgetting to vote JKbear) so he’s been dropping off for me

Kaylee - I think Kaylee could easily be Mafia, this is partially sheeping but she has a lot of posts that are kind of defensive + she hasn’t really taken any strong stances. I’ve been going back and forth on whether the post where she says that she didn’t want to take stances because it might make people suspect her is TWTBAW or too-wolfy-to-be-TWTBAW

With the last two – I’ve been thinking about what you said about how you didn’t die N1, and it makes sense to me, but I’m not sure, in that world, why both of them stayed on you? like if I were scum and the top wagon was like ‘I’m the vengeful and I’m shooting Arete’ I would … stop voting that wagon, so that I could avoid dying

and the fact that neither of them did that makes me think that you not dying overnight is a less big deal?

@Arete

relative to SoD…

Laser has moved up a lot for me, I basically buy his townslip with thinking there were only two Mafia as being legitimate/pure. (exception is if Orange is a wolf because I could see him coaching something like that but I don’t think so at the moment)

you’ve moved up for me a bit after re-reading your EoD, I already thought you were likely town but this firmed it up for me more

Squirrel’s fallen some, I had them as a townlean earlier but I wasn’t really a fan of how they responded to questioning + your argument about wolves not killing you kind of makes sense, they’re not a townlean for me anymore

JKbear’s fallen a lot, I had them at null overnight because I hadn’t really had the chance to look into them but when I looked into their EoD I wasn’t really a fan

Bepwei’s up a little, his EoD had a couple moments of investment that felt pure, would put him as a townlean

I kind of felt like Quin’s thought process in voting me was kind of wolfy, like they don’t really express a real read on me they’re just like ‘let’s see where it goes,’ which kind of makes me think that they have TMI that I’m town and don’t want to hardpush me? but I’m worried that I’m biased because it’s me. Just, like, Ari is pushing me but he’s actually willing to call me a wolf, which is way villagier than whatever Quin’s doing

everyone else is basically where I had them in the readlist I posted at SoD

@Arete

Greenchecked
EricKline

Villagery (top is more villagery)
clonedcheese

cattypaws_f

Wolfy

Ugh.

[Firekitten]

am I the only person who thought that post meant “both of my scum buddies are on the wagon” because I’m not sure how you can think there’s only two scum unless you are in the position of only knowing two other scum.

[laserlab (William)]

You can think that if you are a clown, like I am

[Firekitten]

Did…you actually think there was only 2 mafia?

[Firekitten]

[laserlab (William)]

here is my explanation I look at where it says three mafia then I click on the drop down and below it, it says 1x separatist. I think “that means there are two mafia and 1 separatist”
as it turns out, that is not what that means

Vote Count

Arete (1): Brandn03

Not Voting (9): laserlab, EricKline, Quin, Squirrel2412, cattypaws_f, Arete, GoalkeeperBoss, k.aylee2412, Firekitten

At this point I’m just here to look at cat pictures courtesy of Arete
Also, the various vote counts are all just to speed up the vote count bot thingy

[Firekitten]

That makes a lot more sense, thanks

[Squirrel2412 (David E)]

Laser d2 voting:

Voted with 22 minutes til eod, making the count:

JKBear331 (5): Squirrel2412, Arete, Ari_2412, EricKline, cattypaws_f
Squirrel2412 (4): orangeandblack5, GoalkeeperBoss, JKBear331, k.aylee2412
Arete (3): Quin, clonedcheese, laserlab

Not Voting (3): TheFlash, GTacc, bepwei

And that’s it. Kept vote on arete the whole time, even after arete claimed acop. (Acop claim - 2087/4 minutes until eod, leader’s last post - 2104/3 minutes until eod).

Final d2 vc:

JKBear331 (6): Squirrel2412, Ari_2412, cattypaws_f, Arete, orangeandblack5, bepwei
Squirrel2412 (4 5): GoalkeeperBoss, k.aylee2412, Quin, EricKline, JKBear331
Arete (2): clonedcheese, laserlab
Squirrell2412 (1): JKBear331

Not Voting (2): TheFlash, GTacc

These posts are annoying to parse. On the one hand, I think it odd that scum!laser would park his vote on a scumbuddy who just gave him a legitimate reason to change votes. On the other hand, why would town!laser keep voting an acop claim?

I’d appreciate a second opinion on this if possible.

@gellnick

You win when the Empire is greater than or equal to the Republic .

Also, this still hasn’t been fixed…

[laserlab (William)]

I didn’t believe Arete. I thought that Eric was mafia, Arete saying that Eric was republic didn’t seem believable to me
Edit: I am still leaning towards Eric being mafia

[Firekitten]

I’ll be back tomorrow hopefully rejuvenated because my energy has been sapped
