gonna try to do the scrollbar thing here too. note that i didn't quote every single one of his posts because he made a great deal more than i did, so i'll only be commenting on things that stuck out to me as scummy.
Second, yes, I was silenced yesterday, as Home suspected. I didn't get the memo until after I made a post after the phase started, which is why Johnny deleted it.
And third, to Hard Birb... that was the most excruciating torture I have ever had the displeasure to experience. I had to sit here all day and watch you people talk while I had to hold my tongue. No calamity conceivable by mere mortals is enough to punish you for what you have done. I don't care what it takes. I don't care how many corpses I must trudge over, nor how many rivers of blood I must swim through. I will find you. I will destroy everything you hold dear right in front of you. And only when you beg for the sweet release of death will I leave a dull knife just out of your reach and walk away laughing.
Man that felt good! Hooray for free speech!
Bard makes a huge fuss about being silenced D1. due to Bard's theatrical nature i wouldn't necessarily say this is scummy yet... but watch where it goes.
I'd say that Superjolt and NightKrow are very likely innocent, as you all say, along with purplecicada, Fletch and mew_nani as lesser town reads. As for the death of HyperMorian... I'm surprised too. I thought for sure Superjolt would be the one to get the axe. But then again, maybe they're being wary of Cloud Birb. Even thinking of that, though, cicada or Home would've made better targets imo. I dunno. Could be someone thought he was lying low as doc or something.
As for my scumreads... no one really stuck out in the voting yesterday. I think the voluntarily quieter people are worth looking into.
And addressing Fletch's words, yes, it is really wise to keep in mind the possibility of silencing a mafia (or at least pretending, so as not to risk getting tracked). The only thing I can say to that is I'd have to be monumentally stupid or inattentive to miss the discussion about it in the mafia chat and make a post right as the day's starting.
thought it was interesting that despite Aaron obviously attracting a
lot of attention D1, Bard neglects to mention him here altogether. for most people he was a strong townlean even, but even if you thought his aggressive behaviour was suspicious... why not mention it?
also again mentions having been silenced (count: 2), and seemingly uses his mistake in posting at the start of the day as proof that he couldn't be scum. thing is, if he wasn't mafia, he would've had an obvious ping in his messages saying he couldn't post, while as mafia he was likely just informed through the chat, causing him to possibly visit the thread in a reflex and posting without remembering he couldn't. i'll admit it's a stretch, but this is me sussing things out after all.
Seems like we're all in agreement that Radiant is the scummiest guy here. And now that you mention it Nani, Superjolt's been quiet, and I think he's the only person who hasn't posted today. Safe to say he got silenced like I did. Did a watcher hang out by him last night? Might tell us who the silencer is.
[Lynch] Radiating
here he joined a bandwagon on Radiating, initiated and supported by all other mafia members, despite Radiating had claimed a role and there was no cc. still, this is fair enough, since at that point it was possible for him to have claimed Naku's role if he had been mafia. (note another mention that he was silenced D1. count: 3)
24 hours in, and three people have spoken. Did the silencer hit ten people last night?
In any event, the logical vote appears to be Sparkin, targeted yesterday by the deceased Radiating along with Desi. Since we're already 24 hours in, I won't wait for debate and I'll cast my vote right away.
[Lynch] Sparkin
I think tokyodrift should hold their silence until such a time Superjolt can tell us what happened to him last night, since it's impossible to tell right now who got silenced.
this was a quiet day, which i'm certainly guilty of... but we also see Bard making use of it (and specifically of Sparkin himself having been silenced) to get away with another inno lynch. thankfully our watcher found Gunner as the silencer. at least he doesn't mention himself having been silenced i guess.
No surprise there... in fact, I'd be suspicious of anyone who doesn't visit, since we won't get any mafia visits showing up on cop reports until the Dead Birb is dead... er...
Also, thank God the silencer is dead. I don't think I could handle another day of watching without posting.
note another mention of his being silenced before (count: 4). this is day four by now. the rest of the day Bard seemed helpful, though i found it interesting how he's been gunning at me for having been defended by nani, while she was
much more convinced of bard's innocence than mine. at least he didn't reciprocate the townread, instead ranking her as neutral.
To that first point, I think you're right. In fact, that's pretty condemning. [Lynch] Nani. Second, seems like Nagi has been scumreading me... but I think the debate on who next should wait until tomorrow. That way, maf doesn't get more info on who they should remove tonight, and it's enough we know Nani or Nagi has to be maf. Third, we know Oracle isn't dead yet and couldn't have been roleblocked (no blocker in game). Oracle has to be alive and only Ash is claiming that role. Ash couldn't possibly be maf.
With that, we now have a majority. Now to pray to the gods of mafia that we've chosen correctly.
i already thoroughly responded to his post before this one, so i didn't quote that one again, but here it seems to me that Bard got cold feet when Superjolt mentioned my defense being stronger than Nani's, and quickly switched to make himself look better? idk, either way it was wishy-washy.
WHEW i hope that was okay.
the last few posts i've already gone through in my last few posts so i won't reiterate those. all in all my notes:
- silenced D1. made a fuss complaining about it.
- didn't mention Aaron despite him being a heavy townlean amongst most everyone.
- jumped on Radiating bandwagon led by all mafia, but okay
- fuss of being silenced still continues into day 4.
- makes use of silence to subtly turn the vote on the silenced Sparkin
- complains of nani defending me, but she was much more defensive of him?
- consistently made an effort throughout the game to turn opinion against me, with little basis besides my silence
- sudden, strange vote turnaround yesterday.
all in all i think he did a good job, proactive and vocal as always, twisting the vote in his favor. it's only the past two days that i've really been starting to get suspicious of him after all. but in the end i think my case is stronger, and i feel my actions and scumreads over this game have been more helpful in targeting mafia than his... even if i did suspect Ash at one point, haha.
