Eh, it's really just Jack and Hyper. Let's not fuss about it.

Hm, good points on the voting. However, the fact that scum has NOT hammered Crystal might mean something. So, I think it's a good place to keep my vote.

I think it's one Mafia within Crystal or Vermillion, so I think that is where the voting should go.
But do you think there is only one mafia at all? If not, who do you think is the other, or (if you believe there might be 3, which is at least conceivable depending on the setup) another?
I suspect two Mafia as that makes sense with 10 players. There could be some other anti-town player, or a two-mafia team that has sufficient power to counter the admittedly weak abilities of Town. I mean, I got to do one Night Action the entire game. weak

I think Max is scum, but since anybody with half a brain is now dead, it doesn't fucking matter anymore.

Since Max wasn't on my ass until after I voted Crystal, nor was Imp, I suspect one of them is scum buddies with Crystal.

And hey, at least it's take three people to vote me out, so that is something. I ain't getting voted out unless everyone wants to go for it.

And I need to stop giving a fuck, so I'm going back to not giving a fuck. When is the fucking end of day again?!

I have to sleep soon.  I really do think the elim should be Jack.  Jack, if you are town, I'm sorry and I'm sorry to everyone but the set up for the L-1 suggestion towards our newbie really does make me feel really sure.  And I trust others who sus you.

If we don't hammer I'll definitely be back before end of day.  I'm anxious and want to watch for people doing crazy vote stuff but I can't really stop it if it happens and I gotta sleep.

Jack, you have until day end to make a case on anyone but Crystal or me.

It's not even that I think Crystal is necessarily town, but you have to do it nevertheless.

Can anyone help me understand Jack's normal bussing behavior?  This only matters if Jack this game is maf, but if we see a maf flip this can help people decide what to do tonight.

I've played a few games with Jack, but he was town in all but 2.

One of the 2, Max's Supernormal bastard game, I'm pretty sure (we never saw most flips and roles or an actions list, even alignments mutated for some a lot so pretty sure isn't very sure) that game Jack was solo SK.

He did make a few bus-related comments, but I don't think he had any partners.  For sure at the time he said this, Sof wasn't his partner and he knew he wasn't gonna die that elim because he had a second life even if elimmed.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

In NQT's CYOS2, he was maf partnered with Verm.  But Verm was elim D1 primarily I think because I was sure he was anti-town and there was no pressure on Jack then, so I never saw if Jack would bus.  But here's the only two interactions from Jack towards Verm, Jack's own readslist that doesn't have opinion on Verm... I had very recently posted my case and vote on Verm but other reads on Verm were neutral.  And then, later, a poke towards both Verm and CrystalizedMire to provide a readslist.  Otherwise, Jack ignored Verm.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I'd call what Jack is doing in interaction with CrystalizedMire today 'hellbussing' if they're partnered.  Does anyone know if heavy bussing is really not something Jack would do or if it's in his range when he's pressured?  Both Max and I were discussing him as elim when he focused on CrystalizedMire.  No votes on him but I'd call this heavy pressure and I haven't seen partnered Jack under pressure.

I wanna say Crystal can't be his partner (and that matters only if he has a partner) but I'm guessing based on not-very-similar other games I know.  Anyone know?

We can't plan after his flip, it's night.  Everyone who can do something useful has to decide for themselves, we can plan but maf can use plans.  If he's not maf then I don't know what to advise.  I don't have a role that can stop kills so I don't even get to try and find the best thing I can do, but some of us alive can.

If we see he's maf, those who can should they consider if they should block/jail CrystalizeMire or not?  So I wanna know what he usually does as highly pressured maf towards partners, does he bus hard or never or vary or what.

And of course I'm presuming Jack is the elim.  Based on others' reads, my own reads, and everything I see, that's the best guess I have to get a maf elim today.

FoU has some twisted role ideas. Screw second-guessing this mechanical garbage spaghetti, I'm basing everything on reads and visible daytime behaviour.

Would you like to play a game of Mafia? The subforum is always open to new players.

just wanted to check-in before day end to say that i’m not afk, but am foregoing my vote. if we vote a town, then get unlucky in night, we just lose. that’s the current situation, if im correct. no vote.

I'm sorry! I thought someone else protected him! I decided to protect you instead
Which seems like a very strange way to roleclaim on D3, especially considering Max was a point of contention, and thus less likely to be attacked by mafia.
I was still pretty suspicious about Imp and Vermillion which only leaves Max, Euchrejack, and Hyper. Hyper, I'm not sure is town which really only leaves Euchrejack and Maximum Spin.

There is a difference between not voting and voting for no elimination.

K. Who here hit me with a Roleblock? That was rude and you should feel bad, I was ATTEMPTING to kill Imp.
The roleblock must've acted like some sort of jail as I couldn't target Tricmagic last night with my non-threatening action.
Claim by Crystal as to Night 1 action.

I don't think it's Euchrejack so I'll put my vote on Hyper for now due to the fact that they've only voted once this entire game. Besides, in this game I tie will do the exact same thing as no elimination.
