Effulgence Mafia Game Thread

Oh oops sorry I really messed up, I'd written a list of all my reasons for suspicion about everyone in detail after going through all the posts in the game but apparently I did not successfully post it, sorry.

Also does anyone who thinks Aestrix is town have actual reasons? I'd assumed you all did, so I could use your trust as a patch for my own biases but if nobody actually has reasons, I might need to manually be more distrustful.

I do not [/] have unusual trust for tau and I don't think they do for me? I think there's a pretty good chance that pointing out the voting thing is not evidence of being mafia, tough the voting thing is maybe suspicious?
I wanted us to not kill jalapeño dude for literally no reason which it looked like we were about to.

I expect to be a little more useful than a vanilla townie but not as useful as i originally thought

Sorry about failure to actually provide something to defend against. That was accidentally but pointlessly mean.

For now vote tau although I have better hopes of long WiFi layover to change the vote in. I think this is probably a reasonable vote but not a great one and I will read through whatever arguments and discussion have been posted by the time I get to the next airports with WiFi to maybe update that vote.

Honestly, I have reason to believe that a mass claim would be more helpful than typical for the town here, but on the other hand I seem to recall someone saying something about the killers being given safe fakeclaims? If that isn't the case, then I am likely to reveal my roleclaim soon.

I thought Aestrix was town because she's friendly and helpful and seems reluctant to randomly kill people and seemed embarrassed about starting the AndaisQ bandwagon. But you're right, that's not a good reason why she's town.

[pistachi0n]

Yeah, I'm voting Aestrix

I also realized that she's used "they're smart/calculating/playing a good game" in the past to explain why she thought people were suspicious, but the same reasoning could easily apply to her.

Not having a good reason to trust someone does not mean you should dis-trust them. That said, your vote doesn't seem particularly scummy*, just ill-considered, so I'll just Vote: tau.

*"scum" as in a slang term for the primary anti-town faction in a game of mafia

[pistachi0n]

To be fair, I am scum, just not the kind you're trying to get rid of at the moment.

The main reason I think it's suspicious is because she, in the past, has said she distrusts the people who play smart.

Edited to add a sentence.

I'm at the airport and they have WiFi! Also, there was a really cool giant snail statute! I think I'll be online on my phone on airport Wi-Fi for the next hour or so and be in another airport with Wi-Fi in about four hours.
That's a good point. I think I would switch my vote to Aestrix now except I'm worried about accidentally ending the day early without giving her a chance to defend herself. I think we've got a little less than sixteen hours left and I'm not sure when she's awake but if there isn't a better candidate by the time I'm at the nexte Wi-Fi chance I will change my vote to her.

Also re tau, I'm not sure if actually participating in votes is that suspicious. I think more people need to vote. unvote tau

... I'm really not seeing that? I see her saying she distrusted kuuskytkolme because she played smart in the early game and then disappeared later (of course, taking this back once she used Tony's ability). Aestrix didn't give similar reasoning to be suspicious of anyone else, and she certainly hasn't disappeared.

Edit: Made joke funnier, meaning unchanged

Demo, it was this post that I was thinking of.

[Thatwasademo]

Hmm. I stand corrected. I refuse to change my vote though.
