Are we human or are we dancer mafia (game over, Dancers win!)

[madge]

hahahaha of course. i knew i was gonna be alive today because i suck but i guess it was too much to hope that Thea would be here so I wouldn't have to think.

like, there's no objective proof that fred is town, right? i still think on balance he's more likely to be town than moody is, but..... paranoia sets in

i'm going to need to do some re-reading, i'll hopefully have some time tomorrow night.

My initial suspicion is that if moody is scum, he killed thea because thea found me townie and him scummy.

If fred is scum, he killed thea because the alternative would be convincing Thea to vote for me or moody, whereas with me and moody he's de facto kingmaker.

@all: my "this is why i'm town" resume is that despite my shitty reads in general, i was voting somi and only switched to heuri because i trusted mak more than i trusted myself. i literally hammered bessie (i'd obviously have hammered literally anyone in that situation, but i was behind the bessie vote, only didn't vote earlier because i was worried people had stuff to say, etc, and despite all my antics was never not going to make that hammer), and while I wasn't on the somi wagon it was only because I was wanting to let everyone weigh in, I was on board with it. I was wrong about some others but i've been on the right side of wagons more often than not to an extent that would be erckless for scum to bus with

@mak: tell me what to do, please. am I crazy for reconsidering my townread of Fred? sometimes I wonder if that's the only reason I made it this far (lol, I somehow seem to make it to the final day regardless of my alignment)

[Freddino18]

Do you mind answering my question?

[Freddino18]

whereas with me and moody [Fred]'s de facto kingmaker.

So you believe that I think that you and Moody would be at each others' throats this phase? If so, please explain your reasoning.

[madge]

everyone's put you as high town with a few exceptions; in a world where you're scum, it's to your interest to be the towniest person remaining

i thought I answered your question ("why would moody do this?"), you might have to rephrase it for me.

[madge]

To try and answer my assumed interpretation of your question a bit moer thoroughly

My initial suspicion is that if moody is scum, he killed thea because thea found me townie and him scummy.

then he leaves you and me in a thunderdome together, where you're clearly gonna be incliend to vote for me (cf your behaviour the last two days), so all he needs is for you to vote for me for long enough for him to hammer. if you are thinking of voting for me to any extent, then this plan worked.

(and for my part the fact i'm considering that you may be scum after having you townread all game is further evidence the plan worked)

Going back to your original question in case I was missing nuance:

I don't intend to vote until tomorrow. My question for tonight is: Madge, if Moody wanted you voted, why would he not just kill me and lay the blame on you?

Are you asking me why the person who died is the person moody wanted dead (rather than the person scum!me wanted dead), and maybe if moody was scum he'd kill you to frame me? then you ahve to think, perhaps moody thought you'd think that and so killed thea to frame me because he'd realised you being left alive with me after finding me scummy is super suspicous and now i've gone cross eyed (austin powers reference since i kn ow sometimes my jokes aren't gotten)

[Freddino18]

Alright, seems like we'll be going in circles until all three of us are on at the same time. I'm willing to table this for now, going to bed. I'll be up in approximately 7 to 9 hours, if both of y'all are on at the same time after that point, and I'm not there, feel free to ask for the mod to ping me on Discord.

[madge]

I'll be asleep and I won't know what my work day will look like in terms of responsibility/etc until I'm there, and even thing stuff will pop up.

[Freddino18]

Alright. @Moody, ask Adum to ping me when you get on or in 9 hours, whichever is later.

[moody7277]

welp.

Definitely saw Moody lurking, but nobody's posting...

I was binging something late enough that I decided to wait for the flip. Not really a surprise that confirmed town Thea would be the NK.

[moody7277]

The main question I have to consider is: How likely is it that bessie would bus Fred?

[moody7277]

You losers would be toast without my infinite wisdom.

Hopefully since no-one's voted yet, we are still worthy?

[Freddino18]

Alright, I am (ostensibly) awake.

[moody7277]

Alright, I am (ostensibly) awake.

Points in your favor: you've made an uncontested claim at a town power, you had confirmed scum antagonize you in a completely isolated way, you've been organizing town on the past few elims which puts you in a more visible position

Points against you: Madge has had a considerably more townie feel than you for most of the game, you have been consistently against Madge for the last few game days making her a plausible last elim for you

[Freddino18]

I believe that, from your perspective, the only way eliminating me does not win for your faction is if I'm lying town and Madge is scum. To that end, I must admit that Seven was partially right. I did go on the wiki, and I did look up a role. However, the goal was to force scum to NK me, so I chose Vengeful. Now, I do still believe that you have better-than-even odds of winning here. Now that Madge is free to vote for me, if Madge is town, you still win by eliminating me. I leave the Three Door Problem to you.

Vote: Madge

[madge]

Well, I can only assume given the amount of time that's passed, moody had a chance to hammer, meaning he's town (FMPOV (from my point of view), in case Fred doesn't know that acronym).

@moody: can you confirm you had a chance to hammer and didn't?

if it weren't for Mak existing and the fact that maybe moody didn't actually have an opportunity to hammer, I would place a real vote on Fred now.

I've been checking in on the game every so often all day, so yeah if I'd wanted you elimed yet I would have had plenty of opportunity. I'm wanting to see what Mak is going to contribute myself.

[madge]

You let me know what you need from me - I don't see a world in which you don't take the win as scum, which means that fred was actually scum all along(!!!!), once again proving that i suck at this game.

vote: fred

so you can hammer when you're ready.

would you find it useful if I went through with a case on Fred or would you rather do it yourself?

(I'm sure you already noticed but Fred demanding peoples' reads yesterDay now reeks of him wanting to better target his kill lol.)

[moody7277]

I think you can put together something if you'd like. I can do my own and see where they march together. Thea saying that less content day before ELO is better was something new for me seeing as I'm not usually involved in this part of the game. Truthfully, I don't think scum!Fred had much choice in NK since Thea had a town result from a confirmed cop.

[madge]

god did i forget who said what? this is gonna be great, town's gonna be depending on my addled brain for making a case.

i have time tomorrow night, around 7pm-9pm china time, that i will devote to looking at fred (and also defending myself)

looks like that would be 6am-8am in austin, texas - so that'd be tuesday morning for you. (it's about 36 hours from now in any case).

[Makhaira]

I was not expecting the fred madge crossover, was honestly coming into this phase leaning moody, I think madge and Fred's play is harder to fake as scum

Moody, if you are town, please don't vote yet, we have till Friday. And if it's between Fred and madge, we have good reason to vote Fred because if he's telling the truth about his claim we should be able to shoot madge, barring weird parity rulings of madge being bulletproof

Made and Fred if yall are town I recommend removing your votes in case moody is scum

I will try to get my re-read in asap, sorry I'm busy tonight but we don't have to rush this at all so please ppay patiently and cautiously here

Absolutely in no hurry to vote. I have my self imposed homework, waiting for Madge's case, and for whatever you put together.

[madge]

If moody is scum he could have already won. He's clear by that. My vote's not moving.

Fred has retracted his claim but that could be wine. Which is suspicious tbh - from moody/mak's POV, if Fred is town, telling the truth about his claim, then we could win if we vote Fred and have him vengeful kill scum!me.

I feel like his retraction of the claim immediately before voting me is extremely suspicious in light of that.

nope! lied about my power

[madge]

@Fred: are you really not vengeful? because if you are, then voting you out is clearly the best course of action.

Scum moody: would have already won, will win either way, disregard

Assume Town moody:
Town fred, scum madge: fred is voted off and kills madge, left with town moody only, town wins, yay!
scum fred, town madge: fred is voted off, left with town moody + town madge only, town wins, yay!

TBH I'm kind of inclined to avoid all this re-reading shit if we can solve it as simple as that.

[madge]

Awfully convenient that you'd come out as lying about your power the second your power would cause scum!Fred to lose, isn't it?
