Post 1 of 2
To Lucaas and Sir T I agree with Swarbs and would like your reasoning as to voting for me.
As like anyone would say, except Mikey, I'm an innocent Townie.
If you go through the posts you will see, amongst other things, that I quickly supported No Chance when he began advocating Funky might be Town. The relevant part for me being that that was against the feeling at that particular time. Why would I do that if I was Mafia. Surely (stop calling me Shirley) I would have pushed for Funky to be lynched.
Also I have repeatedly been putting my reasoning out as to why I would vote for someone to be lynched again not what you would expect a Mafia man to do. I haven't always been right (have I been right at all?) but for example in relation to Tash I did vote for him but had a logical reason for doing so Cartel inactivity = Tash inactivity. I didn't realise that Pablo had run amok in the House of Mirrors.
For Sir T I have supported not lynching you even when you were the only possible lead we had. If you are a Townie then you must remember that point in the game.
Lucaas I think is Mafia for the reasons I've said before and I still think that is the case and so don't expect him to change his vote but it would be nice now we are at the business end of the game if he set out his reasoning for others.
From my side the explanation is pretty simple as I've given it all before, I'll try link it all up now.
Tennisball (pg 111-112):
I posted my 3 long posts covering a bunch of topics but the third one was my reads on a few of the players.
I asked for other players to give theirs views on others as well and so far Neville, yourself and ACS have done so, which to be honest is a positive view of you as I suspect mafia to try avoid giving their views if possible, hence me asking everyone to give theirs.
Basically I said (at the time, my views fluctuate with all the twists and turns):
Neville - think town (90%)
ACS - leaning towards him being town (70%)
Swarbs - seems to be town (70%) and I think no role
Bodanki - seems to be town (60%) and I think no role
Lucaaas - no idea as he's been quiet like previous games, so 50/50 on him
Sebb - I made no mention of you as I'm undecided, did not have enough experience of playing with you to know if you were town or non-town this game. Same for the rest of the NUFC board guys.
I then mentioned that I have too many town reads on all the players I had played against before, and no idea of the NUFC board guys that I didn't know. I was hoping that meant they were guilty but did not want to discount the chance that I was just reading people badly.
I specifically asked you and Neville to give your opinions on them as I know you are both good players and I respect your reads on people. You two duly obliged.
Neville replied with (pg 111-112) (summarised version):
Mikey - Mikey is Pablo.
Me - I am an innocent townie with no (more) powers.
ACS - I am 90% convinced that ACS is an important part of the town and on our side.
Swarbs/Bodanki - I am 70% sure both are town.
SirTennisball - This is where it gets confusing. Based on posts and actions alone I'd be 70% sure that he was a townie. He has been constructive and helpful. However, we have the investigation from MITO, who we now know was the PI. On it's own this said that Tennis was 67% mafia. We also know that we have to treat investigation results very carefully now. Something strange is going on with the results. Balancing things out I'd say I was 55% sure Tennis is a townie. Lots of muddy water though.
Bobby/Sebb - too quiet. I've had limited contact with Bobby in these games before but when I did he contributed much more. Similarly, I have never seen Sebb so quiet. Neither has done anything to attract suspicion - other than not doing enough. This seems out of character but isn't evidence on its own. We have killed three quiet players now and we just killed three innocent townies. Did we just go for the wrong quiet ones? These two have been less quiet than Nobby and Rolando. Is that an attempt to not appear quiet by doing just enough? I'd say I was 55% sure these two could be NON-Town.
Lucas - Very very quiet. out on his own in that regard with the exception of Tash. Has been online at nightfall without voting. Others have said he always plays a quiet game though. So perhaps this is not evidence. 60% sure Lucas is NON-Town.
My advice tonight is to go lynch Mikey and for the Meth head to go after one of the two I've put as 55% likely to be non-town and for schizo to go after the one I have put as 60% likely to be non-town, for no other reason than they are already arranged like that above.
I think we are bound to start hitting positive results soon. the numbers are starting to come a bit more into our favour in terms of chance.
you (Sebb) replied with (pg 113-114):
Mikey - Pablo. Last of the Cartel.
No Chance - have believed him to be Townie. No Chance is the only one to compete with MITO on number AND volume of comments. No Chance has played like this before and wos "good guy". Also the other night when on in the early hours by himself probably arguing with himself suggests Townie or very sad "bad guy". I go for Townie.
ACS - Again have played with Chippy before and his playing style (if that's what you call it) is reminiscent of when he has been a "bad guy". He flatters to deceive (or at least that's what all his partners have said) by making comments in bursts but if you look at what he has actually said, there's nothing in it (again like his favoured chinos). For me I'm inclined that Chippy is Mafia.
SWARBS - Hard to read. If pushed I would guess Town but contrary to No Chance I haven't seen many leading comments to help the Town. Still have suspicions though.
Bodanki - To me he has played a very quiet game in the background. Leaning towards Schizo or Meat Head. Would be saying not Mafia.
Sir T - We have the info suggesting he is Mafia. I think he is Town. Helpful comments and too visible, although that might have been forced due to the info. (Hiding in front of everyone). On the balance when looking at others I would say Town.
Bobby - Quiet and in the background. Would put him down as Schizo or Meth Head. Not seen anything to say "bad guy".
Me - townie.
Lucaas - To me Lucaas is the other Mafia. Too quiet, non voting for no sound reason.i.e his vote wouldn't make a difference to outcome. Not sure why as Mafia he would adopt that stance as ultimately going to make him visible. But been no help to Town at all in game and no apparent attempt to aid Town either makes me believe he is the other Mafia.
Obi - Where do you begin. Think No Chance hit the nail on the head when he said Obi's out to win and the likes are his method to this. Still hasn't even tried to explain why his first list of 3 seems to be all wrong despite Obi's claim that at least 1 was correct. If 1 is then perhaps Obi could say which one.
Summary:
1. Lynch - Mikey
2. Schizo - Lucaas
3. Meat Head - Chippy/Bobby
