[Mafia] Someone is Watching

[Voth]

Didn't you say you thought the name was about there being a watcher in the game? Why does that suggest a third party?

blah blah blah blah blah.... roleclaim or get lynched, scum.

What the hell is even going on right now with you 2?

[WillBy]

Why are you so evasive now? You seemed pretty thrilled about my alleged scum slip, and now you're doing all you can to deflect and avoid direct contact with me. Why are you so frantic to fill space with posts that don't directly address me or what I've said? Are you feeling a bit pressed?

I'm sorry what have you said? That you're a VT and all the other VTs will somehow know? Well when your other "Vanilla Townie" friend shows up and votes me, you can pretend that they "read between the lines" and knew you were town. But when literally nobody else in the game has any idea what you're talking about, it'll be pretty clear that you're about as vanilla as an average Beast roleclaim (which is, to say, not at all).

So here I am, eagerly awaiting an army of VTs that have been instantly neighborized by a single Voth post. Or, if theyre like me, theyre looking for something useful to analyze.

And I'm just glad someone else is posting

Before Exalt explains his rationale, I'll offer a simpler, 2 part explanation:

Part 1- Town has only 1 weapon against the mafia, and we need to fire it as much as possible to win. Mafia wins by inaction- the longer a game goes on, the more likely it is that scum wins, simply because they WILL kill every night, meaning they advance their wincon regardless of day phases. Let's assume 2 mafia members. Absolute optimal play from town is lynch scum D1, someone is nightkilled N1, and lynch scum D2. To play optimally, we should lynch D1, right?

Part 2- when you declare no intention to lynch someone D1, the stakes are inherently lowered. Why would beast be threatened by your vote if you aren't going to keep it on him? We don't have to lynch anyone today, but if we say we aren't then there's no pressure, and no information gained. I have full intention of gaining information today, so let's start with a Vote Beast.

And Scum has no interest in no lynching as they can only win with lynching as they can easily sway a day 1 vote. We might learn something or we might not. Same way we might learn something by abstaining or by using possible pro-town action N1.

I'm not saying I'm set on doing one way or the other, I feel the option should be open.

Right, because it's a really common play for me to pull some "read between the lines" bullshit on D1 and hang myself out to dry. That makes a lot more sense as opposed to you just being caught scum who walked right into it.

Oh hey! Welcome to the party. Willby is scum. So you should probably vote for him unless you're his scum buddy.

Oh, I guess you did. As you always do. But you should re-affirm said vote as being as serious as a heart attack.

Man, that was a lot of "as."

Do you wanna talk about your common plays?

Paul's only motivation to vote me is so that he won't have to hear or think about the miserable excuse for a "game" his donkeys put up last night.

Technically it's in beasts court I think. But I understand your selective hearing somehow applies to reading forum threads also. I just didn't think you'd ignore me so badly

Ignoring you?! Roleclaim or die. Every VT knows why I said what I said. The fact that you're playing dumb and doubling down is dangerous business, kiddo.


I'll make it easy for you - I'll host an AMA for you bud. Go for it. I'll respond to anything you ask. Maybe you'll return the favor and roleclaim.
