Elements Mafia 76 - by serprex

Anyway, kittens.
I will return in 12 hours. I will have read the entire game up to this point during that time.
If I don't see a good, rigourous discussion when I return I'm going to tut discontentedly.

Btw Mathman was a firefly queen and no one was targeted last night or the night before lmao
It's almost like Mathman forgot the game existed or summat
But I won't! You're all precious to me <3
Except you Linkcat.
You smell.
Like in a nice way but still

smelly

[Annele]

Huh.

As if anyone reads the rules or pays attention if everyone has posted during the phase...

Also interesting that math was subbed instead of a direct kill, could mean he has an important role which serp did not wanna kill off....more mafia points for frozengaia!

tbh I think it's a good move in general, better to let the game play out however it will than automod imo

Has anyone attempted to target Annele thus far?

I haven't been notified about being targeted by anything, though ofc that doesn't mean people haven't tried.

[Annele]

I'll make a read list after I get home from work

[TheonlyrealBeef]

So Annele and math_now_Espithel at the very least seem to be taking this seriously enough to try and come up with a reads list. So that leaves Root and ian. I'd really like to see some input/analysis on this situation: we really need to hit some mafia at this point, while we're currently sadly lacking on intel to work with. Root had some interesting posts in previous days at least, though I would still like to see some input today as well.

Subbing is always preferred to a modkill.

Welcome to the game, Espi. I'm glad a dead slot got replaced with an active player. Unless you're mafia, then that's really bad. Claiming FFQ does makes you more sus because of the GN kill N1.

Naii, what makes you think Annele is HB? And why does that make me mafia? I guarantee I would never be the first vote on my HB in this situation.

[Linkcat]

Based on votes

Not w/w or w/HB
w3/math
Annele/math

Not w/w but second person could be HB
math/Naii
w3/Torb
w3/iancu

Why are u awake at such odd times, just had to ask

Mafia stuff later

Why are u awake at such odd times, just had to ask

What's odd about being awake at 06:08 local time when my alarm is usually set to 06:00? Allows me to get some breakfast, exercise and a shower before work.

[Linkcat]

n+
w3 - Don't like the people voting on him at all. Hard to believe both people who were counter wagons on D1&2 are on the team.

n
Root - Has been coasting the whole game. Come on, man, help me figure this out.
Naii - Hard to place, I've had weird vibes from him the whole game. Starting to think it's because he's HB, that's just a feeling though.

n-
Torb - Still alive, if a high priority target is on the team I think it's him.
iancu - Literally useless. Bring back Mafia 70 iancu.

w+
Annele - Fits MW kill, Graboid is easy cover for being inactive. No voting record to judge by.

w
mathel - Only lead on Oa's N0 check, claimed FFQ

Now the main problem with this is that I have mathel/Annele as not w/w, so if I choose wrong it's probably game over.

Possible teams assuming iancu/Torb not w/w in addition to previous list

mathel + iancu/Torb + Naii/Root
Annele + iancu/Torb/w3 + Naii/Root
iancu/Torb + Naii + Root
w3 + Naii + Root or iancu/Torb as HB

Oh my forum time said 4 am oops

[Linkcat]

So that list is not actually that helpful right now. Let's go back to the MW kill. As I said before, killing the highest town read player over me/Torb means that they probably expect one of them to be lynched today. Then they continue killing the least lynchable people and hope to squeeze a win. The other strategy they could be going for is to intentionally avoid killing me/Torb and then swing a ML on one of us for being alive. Either way, we still have to hit mafia today.

I'm pretty sure there's 1-2 in mathel/Annele/iancu, and 1-2 in Naii/Root/Torb. If there's only 1 in the latter, then it's either mathel/iancu or Annele/iancu, so iancu would be the correct lynch. If there's 2 in the latter, then the last probably isn't iancu so we should lynch one of mathel/Annele, but have to hit the right one. Correctly identifying and lynching the deepwolf today just isn't realistic, so this is where I'm focusing. Tough choices.

[Linkcat]

Also Annele could just be bussing, which actually makes perfect sense with math being afk and the HB in Naii/Root/Torb.
