Mafia #70: The Time Vortex

[johnlarson66]

I vote to lynch Lady G.

I think she used the code word RAT. She could have gotten her point about Lab Rat several different ways, all caps matches the code words.

I am leaning towards Lady G for my vote....Wiz will still need to be watched though...gets more interesting now....

 

[johnlarson66]

I agree about Wiz. I also suspect Ogre. I still do not know how he mixed me and HN up.

I also figured out what the Rb trap is - It is when someone is in a round room and you tell them to sit in a corner.

So my posts are absent of any substance on D1? I pointed out why I thought HN was scum and voted for him. He was scum. That is not my only substance on D1 either. Go back and read my posts. I did read your posts. How's this for substance?

Yes. Absent of substance. Why don't you poll the town to see how helpful you looked on D1?

Your reasoning for voting for HN.

Not much substance. This is the only thing I could find you saying about HN and why you were voting him. I think you got stuck on HN and couldn't move your vote because it would look scummy. Then when my vote went to HN and others saw what i saw and started voting HN here is what you posted...

Sure. How about this one? I know you saw it, you quoted it at one point.

I still don't have a good feel as to who I'll vote for today. A few things have stood out:

FF - Invisible then visible when questioned. Also defended himself by claiming to have been invisible for the past 3 games, which has since been shown to be not the case.

Invisibility normally isn't a big deal, but FF has been the president of the 'Ban Invisibility' fan club for awhile now, so his choice to be invisible for this game is certainly odd. The fact that he couldn't explain why, when questioned, is odd too.

His switch from invisible to visible when questioned, and his false 'Ive been invisible for 3 games now,' could be an attempt to blend, as scum doesn't like the limelight....or based on his history in the game, it could have just been Thursday.


HN - I'm not crazy about Hook's involment so far. Definitely not the HN of old. List was fluff, and as has been pointed out, really not necessary as it was vague on most everyone.

The one thing that stands out most, is the attack (albeit mild) on Z's 'HOOT' theory. IMO Z's 'HOOT' theory was meant to be a joke. Even though he was named in that theory, the fact that HN would feel the actual need to discredit the theory is strange. It was a joke.



Wiz - Lots of folks seem to be on Wiz for giving Ogre an early kick. That really doesn't seem all that scummy to me. It might seem a little aggresssive, but not really opportunistic, so I don't see any scum-driven logic behind the kick.

The thing that bothers me about Wiz, though, is that he was named in the Z's HOOT theory, and also felt the need to discredit the theory. The theory was a joke, why bother trying to discredit it?





Z - Z seems to be participating less (in terms of substance) than he normally does. The thing that bothers me about Z was this exchange with HN.


In the exchange, HN discredits Z's HOOT theory, but ends by saying that he believes that the HOOT theory may have been Z tossing it out there to fish for scum.

Z's winking response is strange, as the HOOT theory was a joke. Z's wink seems to imply that he's acknowledging having been caught fishing for scum. Why didn't he just say "IT WAS A JOKE!" instead of seemingly trying to take credit for scumhunting there, when he clearly wasn't? It was a joke, not bait for a trap. [NOTE: the red in HN's quote above is mine, for clarity]

You trying to get JB to move his vote after he expressed concerns about HN's possible UD.



Again trying to get JB to move even calling him "afraid" to move.



Then trying to get Lab to at least make it a tie.

Yeah. Nice interpretation. I'll just leave my vote on HN and try to push others off.

And HN at the end with a possible slip post to you saying he knew it wouldn't work. Maybe he was setting you up or maybe he was trying to clear you by being so obvious about it.

So Mad, why will you not be voting for LG? Why does she not seem scummy to you?

Because I'm not convinced she's scum yet. And, even if, why would I have to vote for her right now? Your main reason for going after her is because she said 'fish'.... And I'm supposed to jump on-board?

Did you notice, Dawg, that you and LG were the only two in the thread to say "happy pills"? Coincidence?

 

[johnlarson66]

Mad, do you think it is odd that she spelled out Rat in caps?

 

[dirtydawg10]

Yes. Absent of substance. Why don't you poll the town to see how helpful you looked on D1?

I was helpful by trying to keep people from moving off of HN when he retracted his vote. You on the other hand were trying to coax others into moving their vote to Wiz? Why? No need to poll the Town...I know what I did on D1.

You're right you have 2 posts about HN and why you voted them and three posts trying to get people to vote for Wiz close to nightfall.

"happy pills" ...lol...that is not one of the code words unless I'm misreading the post that says Snow, Fish, North, Cold Water and Blizzard were the code words from the last game. Feel free to vote for me at any time here Mad. Or are you waiting for someone to make the first move?

 

[Madcrawdad]

Mad, do you think it is odd that she spelled out Rat in caps?

As I said in 729, it's odd.

I have been there and I didn't move, the town learns something even if you are innocent.

In the end it did end up pretty important what game we were in. It was day one, not much to go on, so I based my vote on someone who didn't think it was important to find out.


LMAO, yes...I thought of my post too and figured it would come up. I was getting on and going to look for others with the "code" words and intended to add my post also. Yes, it was a joke and I know it now looks very bad.

In the highlighted portion you are replying to my post about my vote switch.

I guess you are more noble than I am.

Oh wait we learned something from my vote switch, we learned who one of the scum were.

I can't recall and will have to check but I don't think you felt HN's hit and run vote seemed scummy.

Dawg is looking at a theory that does make sense to me. Although I wasn't around for those games so I don't know how accurate it is, it does make sense.

I need to do a little digging at last nights votes and see what I can learn.

:rofl:

What does that say about you for getting caught in it?
