Mafia 52: Killer Comes A Courtin' (The Play)

[Kashta]

what is your reasoning behind this?

JM.. I was on the communicating mafia team in both the two other games I've played before. So from the beginning, I had to learn how to look at this game from the mafia's viewpoint. I had the benefit of being able to learn a lot while working alongside vets who were extremely well skilled in this game.. primarily Madcrawdad (who played under an alias) and Coler.

I remember Blueiz noticed Ice was following the first game even though he didn't participate in that one. She made a comment back then how glad she was that we (mafia) didn't have to deal with him on the opposing side. Ice really is that good at this.

Then in the game that followed, Coler's very first suggestion to that mafia team was to make Ice our #1 hit. A decision that Coler playfully denied making later on.. lol. That's what the mafia needs to do with their hits is take out the players most likely to spoil their plans.

Coler made reference to that same likelihood himself on the first day in this game... and Ice has admitted as much himself, more than once. Neither of them expected to last very long before being hit by the mafia. Coler was innocent and, sure enough, he was hit the first night. If Ice was also innocent, there's just no way he'd still be here to see Day #3.

That brings a tear to my eye.

I said Dope could be scum, lets see if he shows up again.

I would never trust either of you. You burned me once a few games ago.

I missed the part when you said he could be scum.

Here is what I did read - "Dope did come through like a whirl wind. Either he is someone to watch or just went with consensus as a new player not sure what to do."

I am not even sure if a new player could have read that much of the thread.

i said he could be someone who should be watched, seems plain enough to me.

I am not buying the Ice thing. I think that is EXACTLY what the mafia would want us to think at this point. I think that is probably why they put a hit on Dawgs INSTEAD of Ice. So they could come here claiming Ice must be mafia. Not gonna fall for it. Kash, I know you are smarter than this. I am not buying it and I can't believe you are trying to get all of us to buy it. Starting to look really suspicious in my book.

Dopehand?? Really?? We have major mafia in our mists and you are gonna waste your vote on Dopehand who made a one vote one time?? We don't even have enough to go on other than lack of participation. Does that really scream scumminess?? Maybe, but I think there are bigger fish to fry. I am really starting to not trust you JL.

Please townies go reread up on JM. He has followed Kash from the beginning. I don't trust him either.

Ice, everything I was counting on to be accurate and reasonable has just been proved wrong. Tonight has been a total disaster. And there's nothing I can do to change that. While I do all I can to read through everything looking for clues and evaluating strategy from every angle I can think of, there's obviously a lot going on that I miss. It's still easy enough for me to be mislead or for me to just misread things all by myself. But one thing is certain...

There is no way under the sun that ANY mafia team in this game would hit both Coler and then DirtyDawg while still leaving you active and alive to continue playing... UNLESS you had a chair at that mafia table.

I'm flattered, really I am. But if you read through enough games I make a target of myself enough that I easily am lynched instead, partly because I am very active and people seem to follow me easily.

I'm not against being lynched if it helps the town. Just make sure you're not a townie voting for me.I'm still going to dig around, I'm not going to waste time defending bad choices.

The posts pushing how good I am at this seems to me to be a scare tactic to the other players to push them into a vote for me.

 

[Kashta]

I thought for sure JL or myself would be hit.

Don't think I won't OMGUS vote you Kash. You've been a suspect of mine so its not out of the question that I'd vote you after looking back over the thread.

On JL being hit tonight... No Ice, you know much better than that. JL was not going to be hit tonight because the mafia had to submit the name for that hit before nightfall yesterday. The mafia wasn't going to target JL (if he's even innocent) because JL was a no-show the whole day. He didn't start playing until AFTER today's hit had been already been submitted.. there's no way the mafia could have anticipated him showing up when he did out of thin air like that - two (real) days in advance.

As for you coming after me, Ice... yes I fully expect that. I also know that with you gunning for me for two whole days before nightfall comes again that I won't stand a chance. Against you and whoever else sides with you, I won't be able to fight off suspicion well enough to avoid being lynched tomorrow. But that's okay... because the town will see what you're doing. And once you succeed at getting me lynched, they'll also find out that I'm innocent. That alone will be enough to prove to them that I'm right about you as mafia now.

I am also not clearing Ice. He still has acted weird to me.

Ice: Why are you going after Fire instead of Noods??

Really?
Didn't you claim the same thing earlier?

As for Dopey, they might not be a major player in the game but what does it hurt to put pressure via votes on them? Votes aren't cast in stone and can always be changed.

EVERYONE should be watched. Who should we not watch?

 

[Luvbugz]

Yeah I claimed the same thing earlier, but isn't that exactly what I am saying??!? Isn't that EXACTLY what they would want me to think??
