I like pima’s reasoning. Lynch Autolycus. Assassinate Fern Forest. BUT, let’s not be in a hurry here. I’ll unvote if we get too close to starting the timer before, say Friday.
Question to NAF: can I reveal another Mason in my one post after death?
It wasn’t really high profile, in the sense that I had not even suspected Fern Forest of the SK role. Only when looking at all of the posts, did it become clear. I could very well be wrong. In my analysis post, I did not include posts that were not relevant to the case I was making. ** Fern** had many many more posts, and these were sprinkled throughout.
Fern Forest all but got lynched yesterday and I am betting was hoping I would get a Town reading and vindicate him. That with the possiblility that I was being protected probably steered him toward a different target. Then when you factor in the **Autolycus ** analysis, things start to make perfect sense to me.
DAY 4 Votes
6 – Autolycus – (Fernforest, rysto, queuing, menecchio, MTS, starvingbutstrong, pleonast
0 - JSexton – (Menecchio
Unvote – (menecchio
0 - Fern Forest – (queuing
Unvote – (queuing
The vig count is the same, except it is 6 for Fern Forest
I was the first to vote Auto, so make it 7
My own opinion only, but I feel that the one post is meant only for “bah, go team” and nothing more. You’re dead, after all, and the dead don’t talk. I feel that the long-winded posts post-death by a couple players are against the spirit of the rule.
It’s generally banned behavior on mafia sites. That said, it’s of course up to NAF to rule on.
actually, fern forest hasn’t posted yet.
7 - autolycus - pimaspinner, rysto, queuing, menocchio, madtheswine, starvingbutstong, pleonast
Well, I feel confident that JSexton is town based on 2 known scum trying hard to have him lynched yesterday.
I also believe that Autolycus could very well be the GF. It makes sense that he would be so blatant with his mob speak and live so long.
Malacandra, I have never been so suspicious of you as I am right now. I noticed you voted for a VIG kill of Fern Forest, but did not respond at all to the claim of Auto being the Godfather. I think you may be trying to help your team by voting for the SK, but you are also being on the sly about a Godfather attack. Perhaps, you thought you would side with the town on one issue, thereby hoping we would overlook the fact that you didn’t touch the GF claim. You’re officially number one on my list of unconfirmed players.
But I agree with the town’s strategy today, so:
Lynch Autolycus
Assassinate Fern Forest
No, you may only say goodbye. Once you are dead you can’t speak anymore about the game.
Whoops.
Assassinate Fern Forest
Also, I’m onboard with the prevailing plan, but there’s no need to end the day yet, and we’re already two away from lynch. Plenty of time to let other players check in, folks.
Ahhh. The satisfied sigh of re-reading the thread now with so much more factiness in it.
Vote Autolycus. I had Autolycus in my gray-area shading to town just because I thought the whole schtick was having fun in a role-playing way. But that analysis jibes so nicely with his being GF.
As for a Vig vote I want to read Pima’s posts (and nice work, by the way) in context, not as individual posts, so I’ll be a few minutes(!).
Well, that’s actually what I meant by “high profile” – I’m saying that I don’t think it makes sense for the SK to post a lot, period. It seems to me that the sensible thing to do would be to keep one’s mouth shut and fly under everybody’s radar.
That said, I can also see how a certain personality type might find it hard-to-impossible NOT to talk about it, so I guess I’m an agnostic about Fern Forest.
Unvote Autolycus
Jeez, no need to start the clock yet, guys.
Geez, I am horrible at this vote counts. I won’t do it anymore. Where it said 'fern Forest" it should have been “pimaspinner”. I was just trying to make people sort of aware that the magic number is close.
Sigh
My bad.
As I thought, the past death’s door reveal isn’t allowed.
Then, while we’re cogitating who to lynch tomorrow–what’s our Mason strategy? Because the default position of the last confirmed Mason going to the grave seems risky.
Unvote Autolycus. He still needs to be strung up, we need more time to think.
[programmer] And Queuing, please either use matched parentheses or none at all. Your unbalanced "("s irk the hell out of me. [/programmer]
Sweet! 2 scum and a fantastical recap by pimaspinner.
I’ll hold off on the voting for now, per consensus, but right now I’m down with the town. Lynch Auto, assassinate Fern. (Not official! See! No colour).
Hamsters ate my post. I saw the FF analysis first and my earlier post was composed around bathing my son. Now I see there’s plenty of momentum around Autolycus and I’m no more anxious to start the countdown than anyone else. That do?
Get rid of the SK as soon as possible. Uncontrolled kills don’t help us, and “Good work SK. I’ll probably lynch you in the morning” is no way to keep him onside.
Pleonast, the way I see it, if there’s only one Mason left, it’s probably better to confirm them now. If there are more than one left, then leave them unconfirmed; they can confirm themselves.
But you should probably tell us how many Masons are left.
I suggest you pipe up while you can. One lone Mason might as well be vanilla. We have several power roles about the place and the scum can’t hit them all. You can play chicken with them if you like but if you die tonight we’ve another unknown who could have been confirmed. Any dissenters?
I agree that if there is only one left, confirm him today so we know enough not to lynch him. If there are more than one, they can confirm each other.
