I'm currently going through all of Dorian's posts and taking notes, but while doing that I came across a Ratchet-Bankertin interaction that pretty amusingly fits the bill I'm describing (Banks is the initiative side, Ratchet LEGITIMATELY interacts with Riki while only questioning Banks about weak things) First paragraph is the response to Banks' reads-list. No further questioning (Banks has to prod him later for it...), just accepting as is.

The other paragraphs are Ratchet responding to Riki, going through every minute detail Riki brought up in his recent posts.

1st prod.

2nd prod to Ratchet...

Wishy-washy, and the last paragraph (the 'outcome' of the post) was decided by Ratchet before he even started to type words about the reads themselves. ("I give this a pass and that's the only thing in this post that interests me, oh wait I ended up disagreeing wrt some parts gotta mention that as well.")

Not sure I can make the point I'm trying to get across any more obvious than this exchange right here.

The last quote is allegedly the post that rung the Cop-bells for Banks, and, well, you can see for yourselves how plausible that is.

Did anyone ever check Banks' reaction to Ratchet's Achro-vote D2? I know *I* got paranoid since it was so weird that it could've even plausibly been a red check.

Dorian me bhuber.

I won't be I'm final three, town would always lose. If I'm wrong on Dorian I'll do all the work to find out who is what and be kynched then.

I'm on my iPad I'll address your other points when I can type.

Also if Banker is scum he has literally already conceded the game with literally saying he doesn't mind being lynched. Like, he can't back away from that as scum tomorrow without 100% looking bad.

Damnit guys <_<

i am sold

he didn't have a reaction to it afaict

he said he ignored most of the textwalls from you/ratchet/achro when he entered the thread

afaict this game is now more about who is right than about who is mafia

Well no you could still be scum and we will probably lose in GLORIOUS FASHION or something but yeah this is probably more about who is right.

As has dorian, as has bhuber.

Slendy after this game is over and we are in post game. What will your reaction be when you learn that I really did think ratchet was the cop off that post? I have a feeling its the first thing you will post.

Thanks.

Is that a natural progression to his alleged D1-Ratchet-read? Why would Ratchet (and his possible target of suspicion) not be of SUPER-interest to him?

Even if his opinion had rescinded a bit, thinking someone might be the Cop tends to stay on the back of one's mind.

Correct. I think that might have been the day I was insanely busy at work. I can't remember 100%

I think cop would have claimed or hinted more in the last seconds of EoD so I knew I needed to reexamine ratchet after the EoD1.

I think we're saying things on the same point. I would never say the he handled the case well that phrasing is what makes it scummy imo. Scum know they need to react to cases so I think that would be on his mind. Especially day 1.

Did you like any of my points or just didn't those points?

JUST TO RECAP DORIANS DEFENDERS are saying "It was day 1 no biggie" Fun times.

Fonti/Slendy did you guys enjoy any of my case? Think any of it was good? Anything about it feel right or wrong to you?

Riki step up and tell me what you think of the case.

DORIAN IS NOT DEFENDING HIMSELF LIKE A TOWNIE HES MAKING EXCUSES HES NOT EXPLAINING HIS LOGIC HE IS A WOLF.

Not dramatic, actually. No offense but if you're Town, the read's still arbitrary.

I can understand light Cop-reads, I do them as well. But unless I see MAJOR reasons for Copreading someone I don't let that get in the way of my Lynch-decisionmaking. For obvious reasons.

I could also understand you simply saying you wanted to resolve one of the top three suspicious people in your mind. And couldn't adjust to the threadflow-change so quickly -- while not a great look on you, some people do that and I can't help it.

But you said this was the defining thing wrt Ratchet for you. When I specifically asked this. You didn't realize the explanation wouldn't fly in my eyes, and later started polishing the stance. It makes you VERY red in my books. I could've locked in both my D3- and D4 -votes with a clear conscience, once I realized that. (Disclaimer: I'm still reassessing the Thread, fwiw.)

So if you're Town here, you've basically been one-time-too-many in the wrong, in a manner that seems to be one-shade-too-red. Sorry. I can see you're a great player and I won't think less of you if you flip Town here, but I also can't ignore your decisions making the most sense from a Mafia!PoV.

I'm going through the Thread and there are posts that make road-Ratchet-dorian seem plausible, if that's any consolidation to you.

Once I've taken the notes I'll compare them with yours again to see how legit/forced I find them.

I'm literally never flipping mafia here. You know it and you're trying to call ME bad for flipping town **** that ****. IF YOU LYNCH ME FOR NOT SEEING THE OBVIOUSLY LOGIC THAT IS ON YOU SIR. DONT YOU DARE PUT MY FLIP ON ME. I'VE SPENT MORE TIME IN THIS THREAD THAN ANYONE AND VERY MUCH CARE ABOUT WINNING AND NOT DYING. I WILL NOT HAVE YOU SAYING **** LIKE THAT.

Your case on me assumes I'm a great mafia player and interact with teammates in a specific way.

THEN simulataneously I'm also a ****ty mafia player and come up with (in your mind) bull**** cop reads to justify not voting on a partner.

When I'm this amazing scum player. So which am I good or bad? Let me know. Because your case ONLY makes sense if IM BOTH AT THE SAME TIME

Where dorian is a wolf who plays soft and gets away with being scummy on day 1 because hey guess what thats how HES STILL PLAYING NOW. It 100% lines up with someone who is uncomfortable playing scum in a new environment and had teammates who are killed off and doesn't know how to handle late game wolf.

BUT WHY IGNORE WHAT MAKES THE MOST SENSE???? Go with that hero play on the guy who is good/bad.

Just bold dorian's name so we can win today. Go take a nap or whatever you want. Stop working. I've done the work it is dorian I've been on him since day 1.

Like its not consolation for me because I know what will happen. I'll die and flip villa then we win tomorrow which is annoying as *** to me. I've been on the wrong scum all game. I'm getting lynched for that.

If I was scum with road. I would give a big pep talk about how he should keep his case on me full force and switch to dorian EoD then we'd lynch bhuber then last day he or i can bus in mylo and then auto win the next day.

I'd have put in INSANE work and made lots of good poitns on dorian a case like the one I'm doing today I wouldn't have waited for people to fledge out their own ideas. I wouldn't be pushing crazy theories. I'd just take the easy win.

I mean i'm apparently good enough to have those day 1 interactions where I kept pinging my partner ratchet but not good enough to see this insanely easy path to victory.

Come on now.

Did you read my day 1 case yet or no?

Everyone needs to react to cases. I've been doing it non-stop since the game started, and I'm town. I spent Day 1 trying to get a feel for everyone's personality and playstyle. Some people handled cases on themselves well. Some people didn't. Some people, like MSU, didn't on purpose, and I called them out for it. Some people, like Ratchet, didn't when under a time constraint but did the next day.

If, as town, you notice that someone is good at handling cases against them, then you know you probably need to look elsewhere to solve them. It's useful information to a player of either alignment, and I don't see how commenting on it is remotely indicative of alignment.

I'm about to have to leave for work. I'm going to go over day 2 of dorian's as well.

I will focus on staying in the thread.
