Did anyone else have trouble understanding my case against Colin?JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Fri Mar 13, 2020 1:26 amI'm keen to lynch Colin. On that front, sure. I agree with your conclusion. One question:
You noted Colin agreeing with Dyslexicon about a point against Tony. You said you sought follow-up. Later you observed Colin's Day 2 vote for Tony and said you didn't know why he placed it. And lastly you mentioned that the "Tony stuff you were looking for" was vague.
Please expand on all of that. It looks disjointed to me, and at times I struggled to follow what you were saying in general within that case.

I have not observed that happening in this game, but I've also never given less energy to reading Epignosis in a game before. I'll ISO him at some point. I too need to put some energy in other places right now. I'll have at least half an eye on this thing until the deadline.

And the points he made didn't look like the kinds of things Epignosis usually finds interesting. They were token or generic. That doesn't make them bad points or wrong, but it didn't look like his usual shtick.
Well sir, I've been drunk every night I've played this.

Holy shit not another one of these.Sloonei wrote: ↑Fri Mar 13, 2020 6:33 pm Kickstarting my brain back into mafia action by finally looking at sabie. Better late than never.
Her first on-topic post, and her first remarks constituting a read are directed at Jack. Her stance is non-committal, skeptical about both the votes and jack himself, it would appear. If I have to make a judgment, I'd say she's more favorable to Jack than opposed to him ("I see the votes on jack and I'm not sure.") nutella1.0 is mentioned and gets a similar, but less lengthy, treatment. "Nutella can be difficult to read" is pretty open-ended, but its function here seem to be to leave the door open for future suspicion.Spoiler: show
Nanook1.0 gets another negatively-slanted shrug. She caps the post off with a questioning glance at Jay, but no judgment is passed. She is perturbed by her placement in the orange section of the infamous Day 0 reads list, which may be an indicator that she and Jay are not aligned: if they're teammates she has no reason to be bothered by this.
Four players are mentioned in this post. Two are still alive. Jack is the only one treated somewhat favorable, Nutella and nanook (dead in a murder-suicide) get similar negative slants, while Jay gets a sort of timid side-eye.
This is a direct response to a question from SVS about Jack, nanook, and radishes. I've color coded sabie's response according to my interpretation of her positions.Spoiler: show
Jack is green, getting an explicit nod of support from sabie. That could be indicative of a partnership, but it feels a little bold for that. The yellow bit about nutella/jack goes nowhere.
Nanook receives implicit shade based on a previous game in which he was mafia and fooled sabie. We know that nanook1.0 and sabie were not partners, so I am noting this just to call attention to her strategy, especially in comparison to the next point. When sabie is made to talk about Radishes (her teammate) she gives a pronounced shrug. At least in the case of her other shrugs, there seems to be a direction ("Nutella brings up a good point..."; "I thought I had a good idea of Jack's gameplay..."). But with Radishes she goes absolutely nowhere: "I don't know radishes I'm not familiar... I missed where the case began." Sabie plays the cluelessness card when asked to talk about her partner.
A new interpretation of sabie's handling of Jack: she is propping him to justify a vote for nutella. I find this type of interaction to be more indicative of no teammate connection, but it's not impossible to read it the other way. Tentative good look for Jack.Spoiler: show
Hard negative stance against speedchuck. Good look for him.Spoiler: show
Her handling of Jack here again has the feel of non-alignment. Her stance is getting convoluted, and it's as if Jack has pulled the rug out from under her. If they're teammates, this is a sloppy moment. Not impossible, but I'll call it unlikely for now.
Here she is responding to a direct question from jack about nutella. If they're teammates this question is kind of obligatory from Jack so no points there. sabie's response is also standard. Hm. This post is pretty stiff on both ends and I can read it as a teammate interaction more easily than the above posts. Keeping an eye on it, I guess.Spoiler: show
Generic prod from Jay about the nutella vote. This is similar to Jack's question above. The "I've explained" qualifier might signal annoyance, which might be a good look for Jay but that's a very minor point.Spoiler: show
Sabie again appears to be bothered by Jay's interrogation. Good look, I think. But something about this particular exchange strikes me as having the potential to be staged. I don't need to read it that way, but it's there and I can't ignore the possibility. Maybe it's because I don't remember anything developing out of this exchange. Looking back on it now, I feel like it could have been seen as a bigger deal. But that's hindsight talking. I dunno, I'll store this away in the back of my mind for now.Spoiler: show
Empty namedrops on colin, tranq, and myself. Okay. Thank you for the well-wishes several weeks ago, sabie.Spoiler: show
Prods nanook2.0 to expand on his suspicions against SVS (town) and Colin (unknown). Given sabie's tentative handling of Radishes earlier, I'm inclined to say her strategy is to avoid conflict when it comes to her partners. Good look for Colin in that regard. Here is a pretty generic response to Colin about A Thing. It tells me nothing, but it exists.Spoiler: show
Color coded analysis again. She starts off by supporting Tranq's suspicion against Turnip Head (good look for TH to not be on this team), but then goes into a pretty overt-but-not-explicit shading of Tranq, which also envelopes drago (who would become nutella2.0). Good look for Drago. "Colin is meh" is snuck in, which I'm inclined to view favorably for Colin again, but the way it's positioned in this post kind of hides the read, so I feel less strongly about Colin than tranq here. She doesn't really go anywhere in her G-man comments again, which recalls her earlier handling of Radishes some. There is implied reason to suspect him, but she quickly backs off of it by acknowledging his schedule conflicts.Spoiler: show
I like this color coding thing, so I'm gonna stick with it. Three hard negative reads in a row kick off this post: Colin, Turnip Head, Nanook2.0. We know nanook was town. I am heavily inclined to say that Colin and TH are not on sabie's team, but I don't think anyone's been arguing for that anyway. At least not in TH's case.Spoiler: show
Then she gives a total shrug at Jay. "I don't know... I thought he looked like his usual self... Is he different when he's bad?" This non-handling is reminiscent of her Day 0 treatment of Radishes. That feeling in the back of my head has been elevated to a mild sensation here. Jay is suddenly somebody to keep an eye on.
Her most positive read in this post is on me (cool), which she then spins into yet another shrug on Radishes.
A couple of generic prods, one directed at Michelle regarding TH. The other directed at Ted regarding me. Okay. This is the first time ted or michelle have come up in this ISO, for the record. I get nothing out of this post other than another point in the "TH is not on sabie's team" ledger.Spoiler: show
More colors. I want to start by highlighting sabie's handling of SVS, just as another glimpse at her strategy: This post is framed at the outset as pro-SVS ("I agree with a lot of svs' reads"), and is then capped off with paragraph that reads as fairly positive, until you get to the end when she drops an "I could go either way on her" on her. That conclusion seems entirely out of place, not just in this post but in sabie's ISO at large. It looks like an effort to suddenly and jarringly open the door to a potential lynch candidate without any precedent. This take on SVS does not belong in sabie's post history. What this suggests to me is that sabie's strategy is to look for any lynch options that are not members of her own team. Her gloves-off handling of radishes (and complete absence of sig in this ISO so far) suggest that she was trying not to put any attention on her partners.Spoiler: show
pro-juliets, anti-sprit. See above.Spoiler: show
Shades Colin while questioning TH. I highly doubt either of them are on sabie's team and am willing to ignore any future mentions.Spoiler: show
The first paragraph is mostly just a restatement of the previous post. Colin and TH are still not on sabie's team. Someone else can analyze her handling of me if they want.Spoiler: show
What's significant about this post is the mention of sig. This is the first time all game sabie has acknowledged him, and it's... nothing. She simply uses sig as a stepping stone to get to Mac. Sabie says nothing about radishes when he's brought up. Sabie only acknowledges sig as somebody who enables her to suspect Mac. Sabie is avoiding her partners.
Unsolicited comments about G-man. This post is ambivalent. Refer to the color-code index to see that sabie's two comments about Da G reflecting differing viewpoints. But considering the way sabie has handled her two confirmed partners, I am interested in this post because she is jumping into the conversation about G-man without being prompted. In running with my theory of minimal contact, I'm gonna call this a good look for G. The same post gets repeated later, but without the favorable inflection at the end. An even better look for G. Again.. G-man does not seem like a compatible teammate.Spoiler: show
Sabie responds positively to Jay's shade against Tranq. I believe I made a remark about a very similar response to this same post by Mac when I ISO'd him the other day. The point then was that I couldn't see Mafia Mac responding to Mafia Jay in that light. I still believe in that point, but it resonates less with me in the instance of Sabie & Jay than it did when it was Mac & Jay, for some reason. There is more shared experience between Mac and Jay, perhaps, and a coordinated strike like this would be uncharacteristic for them. I can't say the same with much confidence about sabie. I would not go so far as to call this a bad look for Jay, but I struggle to award it the same good look that I did on a separate occasion.Spoiler: show
There is also a somewhat negatively-framed inquiry about Jack. Tentative good look for him.
She votes for Mac Day 2, but there are no new developments so I'll just note this post and move on. Her next post continues to shade TH. They're not partners.
Great work from this guy making sabie give a bunch of town reads. And, whoa, everyone she named is still alive! Ted is the most tentative of these reads, for whatever that's worth. I'm unsure whether or not I feel like sabie would have named a partner in this list. sig was still alive at the time and is not named. That voice in the back of my head is also telling me to point out that Jay is not on this list.Spoiler: show
A very sarcastic and dismissive response to ted's suspicion. This feels like genuine hostility by sabie's standards, and based on her handling of sig/radishes, I'm inclined to view it as a good look for ted.Spoiler: show
A less hostile response to Jack, but sabie still seems a bit flustered. Good look for Jack, but not as strong as for ted.Spoiler: show
And that's it. The most surprising development by far here is that Jay feels like a compatible teammate. I don't want to leap to that conclusion: for Jay to be the anti-monitor, he will have had to bussed one of his partners (Radishes) pretty hard from the beginning, and then also contributed to sig's lynch. I don't recall Jay being big in the anti-sabie crowd, but the suspicion against her was barely getting off the ground when she got taken out.
Bearing in mind sabie's handling of her two confirmed partners, my rainbow based purely on these results would be:
Turnip Head
Colin
Jack
Tranq
G-man
ted
speedchuck
Juliets
Tony
Epi
Dom
Michelle
Jay
Those are not the results I was expecting. Michelle is in the bottom tier with Jay because she's almost entirely absent. The tier above jay and michelle are players who are mostly absent, but were named as town reads by sabie in that one post. Juliets could probably be bumped up to the lower green tier because sabie had several interactions with her that looked natural (ie, not staged teammate interactions), but she had very little to say about juliets. I'd have a hard time being convinced to vote for juliets at this stage.

Hmm. Maybe not quite that.
I'm curious if there's a chance we're wrong and TH's arguments toward you are in good faith, like if he's not on Mac's team. Knowing his role would influence that a lot. I still think you two aren't teamed, despite what others have said.

That's a bad example, and if I was certain you understood WHY I'm low on time this game, the timeline of my life and such, I'd say your comparison is dishonest.
Not everyone is keeping up with the speedchucks.
I'm talking about the words you use.
This game is... running at about ninth on my priority list, where this time last year it would be maybe third or fourth. That takes some emotion/feeling/investment out of it.

I can think of a reason to give civilian credit to other people. This disregards Tranq, who is a total shrug.

I don't believe you. You're getting my secret vote.
Wooo.
Maybe.
