    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    Because I am confident Miyamoto is a godfather role, and they cannot both be it.
    I meant why they can't both be scum, not why they can't both be Miyamoto lol

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    I'm still leaning MTR as Miyamoto I think.

    I was pinged by Tildey saying Badger's death made it look like wind's story had some credence - but then MTR did the exact same thing when he showed up. And I know one of these two has to be Miyamoto.

    So one is town that is just being misled by what they perceive, and the other is scum that is trying to protect wind.

    And Tildey had a couple of posts yesterday in sequence while talking to me that felt like genuinely trying to solve actions in a way scum wouldn't need to.
    Why are you convinced it can't be both of them, if it's a scumteam of 5? Unpartnered, or just because my slot exists?

    Vote: Jarrod

    I have no real feelings on anyone alive right now, just probing
    Probing the 3p?

    I am like 99% positive I understand what Drey is thinking now - I think he's drawing the wrong conclusion from it, but that can be proven with the right yeet today.

    One of MTR or Tildey is Miyamoto.
    I am 99% positive wind is a scum joat.

    Wind - which of Tildey or MTR would you prefer to yeet today and why?
    Honestly, I haven't looked much at either one of them, aside from what they've said since I subbed in. They've both been active, though, and the timing of Tildey's jump to defend me as soon as Drey claimed info on me was a bit strange. And I kinda also disagree with her take that the Badger kill makes me look better.

    Sure, Matthieu was pushing his info as proof that Badger killed Mazer, which obviously did not turn out to be true, but I took the info as just info and not a redcheck (or purplecheck lol) and decided it wasn't really that big of a deal. Granted, I thought Badger seemed pretty earnest in insisting there must've been a mistake, and seeing Mazer in his logs still baffles me as to why he'd lie about it, unless he was unknowingly redirected. But anyway, I digress. As a wolf I'd probably want to kill someone I couldn't misyeet, so Badger dying is in no way clearing for me (and I know that most of you guys don't know my meta, so I am telling you xD)

    Vote: Tildey

    Yes. Jarrod was a lightning rod N2, so all actions *should* have just hit him - including badger's which we see is true in Badger's will - he targeted jarrod N2. But that should also mean everyone else only targeted jarrod night 2, and in every will we have seen since we have both jarrod and badger. Everything that hit jarrod, also was copied onto badger because of his ability.

    And this is further supported by the fact one of the things that hit jarrod that night was a vote steal ability - which also ended up affecting badger. And he himself said that day he did not believe he was the original target of the vote steal - logically because he knew he'd targeted jarrod and would have copied anything that happened to him onto himself.
    Ok, I think I get it now. Maybe Badger's role had a condition where he only duplicated non-killing roles onto himself, though? That's pretty much the only explanation I can think of.
  6. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    I'm not really sure I follow the reasoning on why Badger would die with Mazer, maybe it's a mech thing that I missed?

    I told you Badger really did visit Mazer, though, lol
    Wait nvm, I misread what you wrote. I thought you said that Badger copied his target's action, not that he copied the actions targeting his target. Are we sure that's how the duplicator works?
  7. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    Badger's will is giving me questions... it shows that he did in fact target mazer N3, the night mazer died. But if Badger chose Mazer as a target, why didn't Badger die too?

    We know from events N2/D3 that Badger's duplicate copied actions from his target, onto himself. This is evidenced by the fact that Grumpy's, Mazer's, Future's and BN's wills all show both jarrod and badger for N2 - as well as the fact that jarrod and badger shared the vote loss D3.

    So if he copied the things used on his target onto himself - why didn't he die with Mazer? He could have been doc'd... but I kinda find him an odd and unlikely target for a doc after grumpy's yeet maybe? Not sure anyone would be worried he'd be killed after that?

    Which makes me kinda wonder if the scum have some kind of mind control thing where they forced Badger to kill Mazer. I'm mulling this over though because it was very clearly a red kill, it doesn't show badger's character, it shows Miyamoto as the killer. So the question then is how likely is an ability like that - and would it show the controlled character as the killer, or the person pulling the strings. I could see it being done either way honestly... but the fact badger didn't die with Mazer is curious.
    I'm not really sure I follow the reasoning on why Badger would die with Mazer, maybe it's a mech thing that I missed?

    I think I know what Drey's info is
    And I think he's drawing a reasonable conclusion from it. He's correct I can't be cleared if there are two wolves remaining in the game, but I can't be a wolf if there's only one.

    I actually have to sleep now, I guess my vote is spiritually on BN. Is voting mandatory? If so, I'll also place a throwaway vote.

    ...did everyone go quiet again?
  11. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    That's 5 votes on BN now
    I don't want to hammer early if people are still talking but I can hammer when everyone's ready
  12. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    I guess the insinuation is that if a lone, unteamed town is being trained then there wouldn't be many people speaking on their behalf, but if it was a scum then you would have the other scum team members active trying to deflect away from their team member being lynched.
    Yeah, this ^

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    Wagonomics? Not sure I’ve heard that one before? What’s it mean? 😂
    Wagon movement or wagon state analysis
    In this case I think if there's a dogpile on BN and people are coming out of the woodwork to talk, he's prob just a wolf who has teammates trying to look productive while also trying to figure out how not to make him a wagon, pretty simple.

    Also I think his given reason on why he's voting MTR is stinky. Self-pres I can totally understand, but voting the other wagon and saying it's because the thread leader said she would consider voting there is just opportunistic assuming Night is town.
  14. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    Combination of the 2... and Night expressed interest in a vote there. So if something can shift, thats likely the only spot it can
    I'm guessing Night is already townspewed or something cause she seems like exactly the type of slot to resolve on its own, nobody is really questioning her and even you, despite being in her PoE, are following her
    I don't see a point in splitting up wagons, though, so in all honesty I'm just going to vote where the majority of votes are to make sure there's plurality, and right now it's you.
  15. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    Because Night has expressed interest in a potential other target...

    Vote: MTR
    Do you think MTR can be scum, or are you just voting for self-pres?
  16. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    Or like... The two potential wagons are both in the thread.
  17. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    Oh hey, suddenly lots of people are talking. That's probably a good indicator of wagonomics
  18. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    BN boils down to:
    1) he tried to prevent a wolf yeet despite saying he didn't care
    2) Mazer had info that put him in a pool of players where it is increasingly unlikely he is town
    3) He was almost yeeted D3 and then an event took place that dropped all votes off him - to which he showed zero surprise - and then instead of going back to the player he'd said he was willing to yeet before he taunted badger who was suddenly in the lead for votes.

    MTR has gained my suspicion:
    1) he also didn't want to yeet the same wolf BN didn't
    2) he claimed he couldn't vote D2 but there was never any proof of that
    3) his read of Tildey feels like TMI to me
    4) generally in my experience players who feel like they are taunting checks are invest immune scum.

    And then there's the fact that from my PoV, Drey, Val, LDG, and Badger are all lock town. And Jarrod is the known 3p neutral.

    That only leaves BN, MTR, Tildey, and You.

    And I am like 97% positive Tildey is town.
    Ok
    Current vote count is 4 on BN?
  19. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    I wasn't trying to convince anyone, I was just trying to get a read on him lol
    I don't think he's sus though, is what I concluded
    Wait, did I not actually explain my thoughts lol
    I thought he could be informed about the purple alignment at first, but I changed my mind because it's substantially more likely he'd be uninformed if he bought into fake mech info
    Granted, maybe that doesn't clear him of being scum but it clears him of being a 3p
    I don't think this whole thought vomit is gonna matter in the end, though
  20. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    I don't know if I have enough time to backread before eod btw, I have a bunch of early morning meetings and also need to set up the new router before I go to sleep so that i don't waste time in the morning lol. But I'm omw home right now so I have a bit of time, at least to talk or if you want me to look at something specific. I hate putting down uninformed votes so I do want to gain more of a perspective on the current game solve before I place my vote, and I'm also not gonna leave for the night without voting.
  21. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    I kinda actually wanna yeet MTR instead now, but not sure if enough people would swap in time XD
    MTR instead of BN? I guess now is a good time for me to ask what the case is on both of them.
    I saw that you mentioned both in your PoE and that you specifically didn't like some of MTR's recent posting and something about mech claims, iirc. What about BN?
  22. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    You're also not going to convince me Val is sus. He is my absolute strongest town read. There are zero worlds where he is scum here.
    I wasn't trying to convince anyone, I was just trying to get a read on him lol
    I don't think he's sus though, is what I concluded
  23. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    Anyway ill be back, I gotta go pick up a new router cause I've had no Internet for a week and then I'm out for dinner, but just ping me if you wanna talk when I'm back.
  24. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    There has been zero evidence of a serial killer. We have one confirmed 3p neutral player - jarrod - and he has been town siding this whole game.
    I had a brief thought that maybe Val had TMI on the purple team having a kill because he voted Badger on Matthieu's exaggerated info, but now that I'm more awake, I don't think that take makes sense anymore.
  25. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    That's an abbreviation I'm not familiar with?
    Reaction test
    Cause I'm not sure why else Matthieu claimed that Badger was purple or why it was definitely a kill, my info doesn't say that
  26. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    Yeah wind, your slot is poe - and my current very strong belief is it's a wolf who tried desperately to save his buddies by trying to drum up paranoia about our lone 3p - and when it didn't work he stormed off. Whether that is accurate or not, I feel for you. I wouldn't want to have subbed into that XD
    I once subbed into a wolf slot that was hard PoE because they had literally stopped playing the game lol
    It wasn't a great experience, but it was an experience lol, my partner almost saved the game for us and then accidentally slipped and outed themself too so we just imploded in like 48 hours after I'd subbed in xD
    Fortunately this isn't the same case, but if I'm already PoE then I'm not going to waste time trying to save myself, as I said before, I'll just try to do what I can to contribute while I'm alive. I gotta go for dinner now but I'll be back after that for an hour or two where I can hopefully crunch through some of the thread.

    Oh wait, my vote is still on Badger.
    Gonna unvote for now until I sort out my reads.

    How far from hammer is Blind Ninja? Not that anyone else is getting lynched at this point.
    Last VC from Psycho says 2 votes on BN
  29. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    Oh yeah, I noticed that Val seems to be the only one who believed Matthieu, which is kind of ironic because as I said, some of that info wasn't even true.
  30. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    Also I'm ngl I haven't even questioned Nightingale yet because it looks like she has a good understanding of the mech and is actively contributing to the game, which at the very least has already given me some footing in my catchup. No idea what her meta is but since nobody is pointing fingers at her I'm gonna assume she's not in the PoE lol.
  31. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    Idk maybe I need more context, I'll keep looking at this and try to piece together what I can, but I doubt I'll backread the entire game before EoD since I'm pretty busy today and also in another game at the same time. I just thought I'd do Psycho a favor and knew I could at least post more than the minimum, lol.

    If you do decide that my slot should die for PoE reasons, I get it, I'm not gonna be mad that you want to kill me right after I subbed in cause it looks like Matthieu left me a mess xD if I don't get flipped today, I'll do what I can to solve. I don't care so much about clearing my name as I do about making reads on the other living players, since at the very least that's something that can be useful to town after I flip (and spending the rest of the game beating my own drum and telling you that I'm town is, imo, a complete waste of time).
  32. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    Ngl I'm kind of annoyed that Matthieu claimed his info and then threw a fit and decided not to play
    It's my slot now, sure, but I don't really think that kind of play should be encouraged
    Or not only that, but did some sort of FPS (fancy play syndrome, not sure if you call it that here) from what I can tell and never retracted the extra details or anything, he just claimed and then dipped. Now I'm cleaning up the mess but I don't even know what his motive was?? Convinced that Badger killed Mazer, yeah probably, but idk why he specifically went for saying that Badger was purple. Cause I can kind of see why insisting that he saw a kill might be useful, if he thought he could get a reaction out of Badger that would give him a solid read, but from what I see on this page and the previous one, Badger just said what I'd expect someone who is not expecting those results to say. He didn't even push Matthieu as lockscum, which Nightingale seems to be doing for PoE reasons (and also, ngl, she is correct that there's no purple check on Badger). Instead, Badger even went as far as to suggest that if Matthieu was telling the truth, there mightve been a redirect. Not like scum can't suggest mech complications like that, but I don't think it reads like caught scum. Granted, I know what the results point to, but it wouldn't be the first time I've seen someone who didn't perform a kill get tracked to a kill target.

    There was someone I did target that night that wasn’t Mazer but not sure if I’m allowed to say it.
    If I interpreted the OP correctly you can claim "info", so results, not sure about the target lol.
    If you're town it isn't really worth risking a modkill, though. If you're scum, be my guest xD
  35. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    Yeah, whatever - last post. There's absolutely no reason why Badger shouldn't have been yeeted for getting Grumpy killed and I've only been signing up for a while now to help keep our numbers up but I can't do this anymore. Too many people get a free pass due to silly reasons and there's no real adherence to the gentleman's agreement of keeping things fun for the team that already faces an uphill struggle in the first place.

    So mod kill me, I guess. Night can claim outright to be purple and a survivor (which if true, would result in a mod kill) and you'll just go along with it. So whatever, I saw Badger kill Mazer and I couldn't target Night due to having a hide or commute mechanic.
    He saw Badger on Mazer, and I guess that makes sense why he was so insistent on it. Idk how he extrapolated that Badger would be specifically purple from it, though, I assume purple is a 3p faction. Has there been evidence of a serial killer or at least more than one kill on some nights? I'll check threadmarks in a bit but might be faster as a yes/no question.
    Also, I confirm he failed to target Night.
  36. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    Just in case anyone forgot.
    For context, this is quoting Matthieu saying Badger is purple

    ...Did I ruin an RT that my slot was trying to pull, or am I missing more context?
  37. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    Not that it matters because matthieu is confirmed scum anyway
    I shouldn't be, as far as I know

    I'm not 'walking back' anything, I can't claim but I have good reason to believe that Badger is not to be trusted. You'll see if you yeet me today, as I said both yesterday and today.

    I'm sure you're only doing this because you and Jarrod are doing what Blind Ninja and Void Kitten did during the previous game, though.
    Ok, I assume this is based on the info he got and not just a read then
    I should probably do my duty and form an opinion on something that isn't just mech, though, so I'll do it when I have a chunk of time to go through ISOs. And if you guys think that realtiming with you will be faster or more efficient than ISOing before eod then I'd be happy to do that, I just don't have anything to contribute in terms of reads because im essentially going in blind lol.
  38. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    If he's not purple then he's red, either take me out today or yeet Badger.
    I'm also not sure why purple would exist as a faction if they're to be trusted.
    I guess this is what Badger is talking about? Skimming the previous page for quick context fyi

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    Finally a little more human. Spent most of my Sunday asleep.

    Regarding Matthieu apparently rage-quitting. I know I made a couple of jokes at him (eg Graham’s Skimmed Milk) but was all meant to be in good fun and hope I didn’t cause him genuine upset.

    Either way though, whatever he thinks he saw of me is false and if he’s town and comes back to play I hope he reconsiders. However still think he was probably up to something as it’s not like him IMO to be that confident. However I also understand he’s one of the biggest MMOC claimers and loves to claim too.

    I agree with for now holding out on him for now to see what action if any Psycho is going to take. If he’s still not modkilled/replaced by next day phase then we might go for him and hopefully not lynchproof. Though can also see possibly going for MTR next if we want to hold out longer.
    What does MMOC stand for?
    And I have info that Badger visited Mazer, is that what you mean? Or did Matthieu give a read on you? I'm essentially a fresh set of eyes so I can prioritize solving you if that's something important today.
  40. WindwardAway

    Mafia 9: Sega vs Nintendo - The Race for the Next Generation

    Well I suppose I should give wind a chance to convince me I'm wrong.... so welcome wind.

    Though...I already detailed earlier why I am damn near positive the slot is scum. And honestly even if it's not - shooting those four names wins the game I think regardless.
    Did I sub into a PoE slot? lmfao
    Damn, this is gonna be fun

    Good morning, and full disclaimer, I read nothing of the game before subbing in lol

    I don't have a ton of free time but I'm still gonna try to do what I can today, who's on the chopping block/who should I ISO?
