    Thinking that the mafia spaced out their votes, I'd say either time (who gets kicked off early often) or lostninja

    I'll put one on cythraul.

    Don't have much more than that, I've been running around all day taking care of my niece. If a better idea comes up, I'll switch.

    I am voting for Wildcat], for the reasons that AustinP has noted. The lead was well exchanged by that point, so it just seems like a points winning vote switch.

    Otherwise it's Wildcat lots, others single votes I think.
    Wildcat is in the lead because bandwagoning day 1, and perhaps a bad enough dude to target Egos
    I don't know whether they play like that though.

    Caught up for today, don't have any particular hunch for wildcat or not - seems a little too easily pushed or no other name has risen to the top, leaving me suspicious of us actually being right.

    I also don't put any weight into the idea that the mafia space their votes out on moving onto Moradin or early or late - ppl just vote when they have the chance.

    So JusticeforPluto

    I'm not sure we're going to get much out of the flip to Moridin. It was basically everyone jumping in case Virgil was special as claimed.

    Work has been crazy today, so probably won't be posting a vote record today. If no one has picked it up by tomorrow, I'll probably do it again (even though I keep telling myself not to).

    We have two mafia "bubbles" (one of you show experts, explain that to me) and a SK "shatter" besides vote. I'm not seeing a Vig shot, so unless there's some sort of "even/odd/every other" day thing going on, we likely can't network around a Vig.

    Bubbles would be the mafia aka the Crystal Gems (it's a kind of perpetual stasis they put their enemies' gems in after defeating them, rather than kill them).

    Shatters (perma-death) could be either the gem monsters (2nd hostile group mentioned in narration), or us (the village, aka the homeworld gems). In this case, it's the monsters given the purple narration color (and note the vote is reported as a green shattering).

    Could be the vig was one of the inactive players, or one of the casualties (on the assumption their action came later in the order of ops), or could have simply been hesitant to target anyone.

    I know I said two mafias yesterday but with those kills it seems more like the crystal gems are mafia and the gem monsters are a serial killer, maybe a serial duo if the plural definition isn't just fluff.

    Of course I'll be eating crow if it turns out there are two gem monster kills and one just got guarded.

    cB557 for the one-word vote post.

    And because I don't really have much to go on, but no real reason for the Wildcat vote.

    Also I had a job interview today and got distracted thinking about how it went after getting home instead of doing the obviously correct thing and immediately, exhaustively analyzing each and every post in the game and finding all the mafias, sorry folks.

    Got 30 minutes now before close so maybe I'll come up with something.

    Sorry, was occupied with other things. Didn't start catching up till ~8pm EDT. Still mulling over who to vote for.

    Yeah. I can still do cB557

    Not that it matters at all at this point.

    I'll go with cB557, I can see a case for him being lore-helpful but not really pitching into the "who is mafia" conversation on day one, and a wordless vote post today.

    Wildcat feels like a bored villager to me, I'd vouch for him more strongly than kime's "I see no reason" (and thus barely saving me from agreeing entirely with kime today :P)

    So, I think there's like 5 for Wildcat, 3 for cB557, and 2 each for Cythraul, JPants, J4Pluto, and LostNinja?

    Edit: 5 (-1=4 with Austin's switch below) for Wildcat, 4 (+1=5 with Austin's vote below)) for cB557, 3 for LostNinja, 2 each for a number of others. If

    I didn’t expect (and don’t like) the Wildcat bandwagon from my vote.

    I also agree with a cB557 vote for one word vote as a better option than my casual Wildcat analysis.

  • H3KnucklesH3Knuckles But we decide which is right and which is an illusion.Registered User regular
    Eh I guess cB557 to lock it in?

    aww yis competing bandwagons

    @discrider when you said bandwagons are bad for the village (can't find the exact post you did), did you mean like, uncompetitive day one ones that all pile on one person?

    Cause bandwagons are kind of a necessary part of the game, both in a overriding the mafia's ability to steer the vote and forcing people to put their money where their mouth is (super easy for mafioso to say they think a teammate of theirs is mafia, a lot harder for them to actually vote for them when it matters).

    Wondering what point you were trying to make there, but more in a curious sense than a "this is suspicious, vote all discriders forever" sense.

    I was voting for someone who I thought made an unproductive vote, unhelpful to the village.

    I'm hoping for "panicked mafia leaping onto their teammate to look good" suspicious, but I suppose we all are.

    Yeah, I feel like a day 1 single bandwagon just leads to Day 2 - "The day that is the same as Day 1 but the mafia got to kill some dudes".
    Competing bandwagons at least generate discussion and vote action.

    I think my comment might have been around ties being good rather than single bandwagons being bad.
