Then back to my list
I removed both candidates and I was thinking to add halrob64 but no need to put halrob64 on the list.
What still bothers me is Devante's post about the Reid Machine. The reason for the post (that I'm not aware of) will render in Devante on the list again. Devante's method scares me and I don't want to be exposed to it.

The below post of mine got two reactions I want to comment upon;
...
...
1. Strikes reaction - seems he isn't playing the oh I've been busy, need to catch up on reading then post what I think line that he often trots out. That's good re game participation but it doesn't make him town. In fact his reaction makes me marginally lean towards him being mafia this game.
So whereas before voting re Strike I wanted to a prod Strike because a mislynch on an inactive town Strike would be a mislynch I could most easily live with, now I do actually feel a micro suspicion on Strike.
How do others feel about Strikes reaction?


strike wolf seemed to pass "... Honestly, Rag calling me scum repeatedly just seems to read as trying to get a reaction to me. Loose and Hal questioned it, which I feel is mostly a natural response ..." and immediately turned the focus to "... Im less certain on what to make of Loose voting me over it. Either way, I am kind of more interested in those who have been active and just kind of ignored it. .."
...

I think strike wolf hide something since changing focus to something else. Also "strike wolf" - it's striking that the name is a resemblance to werewolf which is a possible 3P.

The third is cumbersome.
hjelp wrote:It's a bit strange though that players posting might be lynched and players not posting aren't a part of the discussions to be lynched. Therefore, not posting could be an argument to be lynched. I will choose one as number three soon.

I find that kongming3 doesn't post that often and the statement regarding to reveal if town or not
kongming3 wrote:I mean by necessity everyone is either explicitly or implicitly claiming town for the foreseeable future. I'd welcome and applaud anyone who does otherwise, but someone saying or not saying "I am town" feels pretty meaningless by itself. Now if you think you have a read to make about if that was a true town player reaction, or the mark of scum being defensive, that's something else.

maybe make sense D1. But if mobs knows who are mobs or not from the initial game start (then it doesn't make sense), so if a townie why hide it? It can be important if kongming3 is 3P (there is the digit 3 in kongming3).

My list is:
Devante
strike wolf
kongming3

2 reasons for my unvote on Devante

1. I don't think the evidence on Devante warrants a lynch - actually I agree with Rag on his post on Devante - and I'm not sure I want to force a claim out of Devante either
but other players can pressure Devante for a claim if the want to
2. I'd rather get a claim out of Halrob right now

vote Halrob


halrob64 wrote:Well Devante, if you took the time to read my posts you would have found a lot of substantial clues, but you have just declared town which I think is quite deliberate
Devante wrote:I am town and will claim if forced but that would not be of benefit to anyone other then scum.


If Halrob, you as town Halrob have left clues (breadcrumbed) then you shouldn't have said so. Mafia will be looking back at your posts and be better able to interpret them and adapt their play accordingly than town.
I don't know why you would have said you left clues at the point you did except overeagerness to force Devantes hand. (said overeagerness could be mafia or town)
I can see perhaps a point in breadcrumbing (without saying so) because its a corrobaration of a later claim that you might point back to.

Therefore I think you may as well repair this mistake as best you can and make a claim, and at least give town an equal chance to play around your claim.
Thats why I'm voting you Halrob.

Thanks Loose, I was just going to ask someone to please unvote until we get something more from Devante, he mentioned it will only benefit scum if he claims, but that could now be a scum talking as well.

Kingm hasn't posted much.
An opening jokey style post asking why I was asking everyone if they were mafia. I'm not sure I'd call it rolefishing per se right now, but was it asked by someone leaning into a mafia role, with knowledge of game set up, making a joke?
Then there was an everyone's throwing votes around so may as well vote Loose vote.
Then an unvote on me perhaps not wanting to draw my fire?

On the other hand it's valid town to try to get into someone's head and see what comes from it. If so king has succeeded to some degree.

I think I'm more on the latter 'on the other hand -town' side of the fence re king on balance.

The player who I'm most mindf***ing myself over right now is ragian though.

There was the strike thing, which he retreated himself from too quickly for my comfort.

Then he hasn't actually voted at all D1 yet, and played quietly or reservedly for rag. And I'm thinking was this to not draw attention.

Then I find I like his post on dev.
But liking a rag post doesn't make rag town.

My vote isn't on rag, but he is top of my self mindf***ery / curiosity/ suspicion.

I don't need to repair anything Loose, but i note your panic when Devante was pushed although I'm sure he can stand up for himself.
So maybe I need to be a lot quieter from now on so I can watch and learn from the professionals such as yourself.
So no I won't be making a claim at this point, see you in a week or so or whatever the deadline is for getting eliminated for not posting.
Too many people doing nothing and those that try to play the game in the spirit it is intended are getting the grief.

Do you think Ragian is supportative regarding strike wolf?

Hjelp I think a rag/strike mafia duo is a possibility that ought to be future considered if one flips mafia and the other is still in the game. We are some way from that possible future

Ok, so I also feel like dev's post feel Townish, but I'm not sure, so I will make an unofficial vote on devante, and ask him to for a role claim.

I do not do an official vote, since I'm afraid some scum would jump in and hammer, or some other eager dude that just want blood.

But lets say that Dev is on L 1,5 now ;)

Really Ragian??
I thought the role of townsfolk was to identify who is mafia and eliminate them, sacrificing yourself is detrimental to the game and town friends.
Getting eliminated weakens the town position.
I'm suspicious of Devante threatening to claim town, I don't see the need at this stage to do that, in any event if its true he has played his hand too soon.
I'm now suspicious of you encouraging him to commit suicide for the town as that would be something scum would encourage.


Hal how is it suspicious of me claiming town. What else would you expect someone to do regardless of their allegiance. My issue is having to share what my role is as it would only benefit scum at this point. Not sure how you don't see that. Rag is not stating I should commit suicide for town at least not at this point as there's no benefit to town, simply stating that any townie should be willing to sacrifice himself for the greater play of a town win. Again don't see how that's not clear.

As for sonics poems. From what I've gathered there is indeed 3 scum, mainly here from poems:

When night is whole and silver gleams,
Three fates entwine in mortal dreams.
from first post

Which one was framed, and which one inspired?
from second post, a misdirect role

In halls where doubt and whisper lie,
Three shadows rule, yet none ask why.
They build their thrones on shifting ties —
Are how the clever colonize.

One speaks with silver, calm and sure,
One smiles so sweet the crowd’s unsure,
One watches, silent, counting blame —

And none will name them all the same.
from post on the 23rd. Which gives me hints towards PR's of scum such as a tracker and/or busdriver, second and third reference in last paragraph

Now in Sonics last informative post there was very clearly stated that best scenario would be town, scum and 3p from what I gathered.

→ Win chance estimate:

Town ~48–52%

Mafia ~35–40%

? ~10–15% (?)

Late Game Predictions (D5+):

If ? survives, likely 1v1v1 endgame.
If ? dies early, ? vs ? ends 2v3 or 2v2; still very tense.

3 factions keep game tempo fast and dynamic.


So I think that's what we have, four to find here. and there's a few points in poem which could lean towards an arsonist for 3p

So tell me, observer, if reason’s your trade:
Who built the fire that burned the charade?


So could be reading into this quite a bit but given it's sonic I wouldn't think so

If the general consensus is for me to claim I will do so but would like to hear from the bandwagon that have been silent since voting before doing so; EW and Darin

Wouldn't mind hearing from strike and kong while we're at it too

I'm at L-2. Kings vote is not official simply stating his intent. If anything it at least allows time for those not commenting to do so

I think our host is drunk.

Ok, unvoting my unofficial vote, lol wtf.

I read what he wrote about it would be suicide for him to claim, and only benefiting scum etc, so that sounds like something town would need to win (any docs around should probably protect dev here, if we believe him).

I feel there probably is a lot of hints in those poems, but I do not want to even try, but I guess I maybe have to.

Drunk SoN!c, could you not have made some math problems or something instead of stupid poems?
