Mafia 103...the play

Just got home and got caught back up on a first read through.

No thoughts on rich?
Yes, I have thoughts on Rich. There's other people I didn't mention, why did you throw out Rich's name in particular?

I'm not sure I understand how he would need to be tricky...It's not like AAF's posts were super in depth or all that incriminating.

Maybe tricky was the wrong word. What I was thinking is that if AAF is evil and Labby innocent, would AAF think of jumping on her comment so he could later say "Labby started it".

The more I read and think about it, the more confused I become. I'm leaning toward wanting to trust Labby at this point. I'm not totally sold on either AAF or Neph. UN is becoming way more interesting the more he talks, but he always does. I kind of want to vote Zaffy, but he's not playing, so that doesn't help...

I'm glad we have a little extra time tonight. My vote will likely change before nightfall, I'm just not sure where yet.

Gotcha, my thought is that he probably wasn't focused on turning it all on Lab...I agree that he probably couldn't pull that off and would lose that battle in the process.

I am more thinking along the line of AAF seeing that people thought Neph's late vote could be scummy and he saw an opportunity to try and look good while pushing an innocent in the process. His problem is that it kind of backfired.
 
Wow..what an awesome dinner I just had...sorry, no leftovers but plenty of ice cream for laters folks...
 
getting a tad more interesting....
 
I always do the same thing when I'm confused... start looking in directions I haven't looked in yet. And I noticed something interesting.

AAF starts getting called out about Neph. I can't exactly remember where in the process this happened, but Rich says this to AAF:
AAF do you really feel that strongly about Neph? It is their second game. I think most of us have had to do a drive by vote once in a while.

I actually find Ratty more interesting. She does not usually just throw a jab, we normally get a 12 part plan from her.

As far as the athlete goes, I would say bicycling or boxing.
Seems to me that Rich doesn't have much of a problem with Neph here. He even goes on to say that Labby is more interesting.


I vote to lynch Neph. Very interesting turning and dodging going on.

I expect to be back way before ten but I have a party to go to and you never know what will happen.

Then with no real explanation, both of those are out the window and Neph gets his vote. Talk about some back-tracking.

It struck me as odd. I also feel like Rich has been more active in this game than most, but for the life of me I can't remember a thing that he's said. I'm used to Rich not posting much, but when he does he posts content. This is a very fluffy game for Rich so far. I'll have to go back and look a little more closely, but this seems odd to me. I guess at this point it's a "gut feeling".
 
I don't have a whole lot of time today between yard work and going out later, so I'll try to be concise about where I stand at the moment.

Neph: this is an interesting situation. What it comes down to for me is that it feels more like a newb put on the hot seat and going to far to defend himself. We've seen this time and time again with new players. I'm not discounting the fact that he could be scum, but I'm not feeling it... yet. I'm also a little taken aback by how many people piled on the questioning.

RB: I definitely still suspect RB, but I don't have enough to place a vote at this point.

Labby: I may have misspoke when I used WIFOM. What I was trying to get at is that she stopped in to pose a question that we really cannot know the answer to. Neph says he forgot and checked his email at just the right time, many don't believe that. My point is that it is not like Labby to throw out a question like that without giving an opinion of her own. Come to think of it, I haven't seen any new information added by Ms. Rat so far. A couple questions, a couple responses to questions... no real content whatsoever. I've seen Labby play when she was busy before, and she's always been about kicking bushes and trying to help... when she's innocent. I haven't seen a bit of that so far.

Pappy: I don't know what to think about Pappy. Then again I never do. I need to see more to make a decision.

Dawg: No real read yet.

AAF: still think it's funny how he pushed so hard at Neph. Then as others have pointed out backtracked pretty quickly. It definitely doesn't look good for him, but this happens a lot with the dude.

UN: posted largely crap so far. It's kind of funny to me how he questions Neph and AAF, then ends up voting RB.

I've got to think some more before I'm ready to vote, but it will likely come down to either Labby, AAF, or UN at the moment. I'm leaning toward Labby, but I'd hate to lose her if she is innocent. Hopefully something will happen to solidify my feelings one way or the other.

WOOO-WHOOO NO UD's!!

Who are these other people you didn't mention?

if that were true i wouldve continued pushing him.

That's what I started to think and still do. The problem is if he wins the vote and then turns out to be innocent it will bring certain others to light. If there's been people that were kinda eyeballing me and then didn't have much trouble switching to AAF (I'd have to go back through and look I'm not necessarily saying this has happened) that might make me think that they knew we were both innocent and just wanted to incite the innocents against each other. If there's an example of that to be found, all the better if there's 2 or more people who went about it the same, that would really throw up some red flags for me.

That's all hypothetical though. Just tossing it out there because it was something I was wondering about. The way AAF kinda submitted to defeat and said "sorry town" either makes him a good bluff or actually innocent because it seemed pretty genuine. Either way my vote isn't likely to change after all this but it would be interesting thinking about what might come of him being lynched and found innocent.

On top of that is JB's point above. Rich seemed to have my back there and then voted for me. If there's anything to that it would be like he just wanted one of us to be noticed and then voted for me knowing that would put me up for lynching without much explanation (just defended my late vote and then called my explanations "turning and dodging"). Maybe it's something maybe it isn't but it seems like a low key way to make sure one of us was noticed by keeping that line of thought/questioning going without joining the wagon and grilling me knowing neither of us are in the scum den (still talking hypothetically here that AAF is found innocent)

Anyway those are some of my thoughts as I was considering what's happened so far and if I may be wrong about AAF. I hope I got across what I was thinking clearly. Sometimes I get a little all over the place when I'm talking hypothetically or really trying to explain something (as some of you know hahahahaha)
