I think town red doesn't engage here and just goes to bed is my thinking

Wait what.

Lopen who do you think i am.

Also i usually wake up close to now.

Byclose imean like 2 or 3pm my time but that isclose enough. Going to bed right now wouldn't happen.

I think you're a smart guy who saw Blade play me and are leaning into taking shots so I'll townclear you

I don't honestly think you care enough about this to care about correcting my thoughts on your play

Nah my mafia persona is petty it needs to keep its ego.

It needs me to feed it the confidence or i cant function.

I'm just saying if people won't buy Ulti x Kirby this is another config that plausibly works for me

It's like saying you are only going to join a game to vig a certain person.

wow I didn't deserve that stray

still catching up has Ulti changed his claim yet

Honestly trying to config out scumpairs early is where b8 towns tend to go wrong. Its rare that anyone ever dings.

Isn't that also how MZero and Sultan got paired day 1? Because of the signup topic? Bad form all around.

Actually when I signed up I said "in to date Lea" and I only tagged Sultan and asked him to play in the signup topic

N

Kinda want to boot Ulti off the island because it's really unfun to play with him when he goes into "no one is allowed to suspect me ever" mode

Also I don't like the taking the red mass invite and then pairing up with Isquen for non-game reasons. Feels a little too safe (although Isquen shot him down)

Don't think Kirby is scum

It was more on my end like awe Mzero asked me to play I must play but sad to see it didn't mean as much to you as it did to me lol

You'll always be my Sultan even if the law doesn't allow our love

Gun to your head, MZero, who is scum?

I might still go Chris even if the NK kind of muddles things

Sulty mentioned that he's been playing similar to how he played as scum in recent games on another site too

Which if he is scum, Ulti probably isn't because that would mean the entire scum team tried to shade me D1

Interesting. Hmm... and you're decently confident that Sultan is town?

Yeah Chris is still just kinda playing that way still and being overly buttering me up too which he does usually but recently it's like I can do no wrong and oh in the one game I thought i was being to obvious as 3rd party

I wouldn't call Sultan lock town by any means but nothing has stuck out to me as scummy yet

I pressed him on a couple reads in out chat and he was able to back them up in a way that felt genuine, although he seems more confident in his town reads

Here's Sultan's read list for anyone who's interested

Enchantress (Lea)- town
Mzero-town
Lopen-town
Chaeix (JC)- Scum lean
Isquen- poe if anything
FD- Towny at times
Ulti- Ulti is probably town?? but his eod was weird
Dumey- town
Peaf- FLIPPED SCUM
Corrik- ???
Red- very low content after getting a match could be scum but man idk if scum is that bold.
Sultan- hey that's me.
Kirby- could be strong scum power and they used peaf to save Kirby?
Sir Chris- scum lean
Death- towny

I don't see a problem with this. Not that I think Sultan is scum but yeah.

Er Chris whatevrr

It's important to note though that not long ago (Console Mafia) I pushed Sultan hard and he ended up being town. When that happens I tend to think the player is town every game afterwards

Chris buttering up is part of "chill Chris" which has been the standard for a while now

NAI. Board forgetting is fine but Sultan should know better doesn't he follow him on another mafia place

Well for Chris and Ulti specifically, it was like

Ulti: Wow that MZero post sucks
Chris: Yeah it's not great

which seems a little too brash if both are scum imo

although I do see why scum would want to shade me in general because I'm by far the easiest mislynch in this format due to time zones

I stand by Ulti never plays this cowardly way as vanilla town

He's either scum or power and he claimed vanilla so he's scum

Sulty

Omg thats so cute. My favourite part of this game is seeing how all the couples play out. Sultan X Mzero wholesome. Isquen X Corrik, toxic af.

maybe but also are you convinced Ulti is actually vanilla

Someone ping me if they wanna match up tomorrow.

I am convinced he's scum who may at some point walk it back and say he's power if that's what you're asking

I guess what I meant to say was do you think he'll stick to the vanilla claim

u want some fuq?

Obviously not but that's more because he'll be thrashing

I think actual power Ulti would avoid claiming for a bit

Sultans list of scumspects doesnt seem like real scumhunting

Oh wait thats from the night chat and isnt recent

im baked sorry friends

but still I dislike the list

Chaeix posted...

but still I dislike the list

I suspect you would!

I pressed him on why he leaned sucm on you, to which he said

JC seemed optimistic to me a few times during the day. Also the quick match up with Dumey seems a bit off

well he actively chose not to care that I thought dumey was town and uh optimistic huh

Passed out immediately after work. Not feeling well. Sharing some thoughts of my own suspicions.

- I find Dumey suspicious both for the mutual breakup screwing a scum member over for towncred.
- I find Chris suspicious, and nowhere's near completely towncleared because there's a good half of the game alive that knows what he's capable of, even if it's been a while since he's been in a game.
- I find Ulti suspicious for trying to pocket me, even if it's ostensibly to let me see day 3. I will not be taken that out until he's proven fine.
- I find Corrik suspicious for being completely AFK overnight, but is gaining some credit by not voicing my overnight suspicions. It *did* feel like talking to a wall, after all..
- I find Red suspicious because being a carousel with the game mechanics allows him a free pass to AFK after the mutual-breakup lockout six hours before end of day.
- I find Lea and JC suspicious because they won't share their stash.

I'm going back to bed now. See y'all in the morning, I guess.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/f/ff9a8c40.png

Just a quick update before bed.

No changes in awhile, 3 pairs and 7 unpaired, don't think it's changed since the update we got in Post #313

From the unpaired I want to hear generally more from Isquen about anything he feels like talking about. I also want to hear more from Corrik that's about reads instead of game setup. He had some useful insights earlier, but without knowing with certainty how the cop works we can't make that call. I'd also like to hear more from red that isn't about Lopen's abilities. So fun that he can barely expand upon what he said to ulti during their date but he can go 15 rounds with Lopen about prior games/etc.

I appreciate your timing (and spreadsheeting,) if nothing else.

Oh, got an isquen post while I was getting that together, serves me right for not refreshing.

I'm heading to bed soon as well, will be on at 6 AM PST for my work

This is fair warning that I am absolutely going to be up as long as I can progressing plan woo Red that I cannot guarantee how conscious I can be or when I will wake up when my body gives out.

Why don't you just go to bed now and wake up at a normal ass time when everyone else will be awake too?

Because i am excited to play the video game.

I also could not sleep if i tried.

last message in out chat was "good night sweetie" from Sulty

kind of want to shack up with red because he'll actually be awake when I am

originally wanted to get with death today but scum had to be a bunch of jerks
