On my way home now, so should be able to dive in soonish.
I honestly don't find either of you too terribly suspect, but both of you are very good at tricking me. I agree with quite a few of both of your points!
Jaz, you're absolutely correct on the timing of the LD vote switch, I hadn't gone back and looked at the timing of everything. That does put you and Rummy on more of a level playing field regarding the LD vote.
I want to believe Kanye over JTR's claim, but I'm not super confident.
One thing I keep coming back to, is that if JTR was inspector, that means Dan was mafia. Jortles drew attention to a Dan/Rummy connection. I need to go back and take a look at that section again.
Jaz, any thoughts on that?
More to come, but think I'm actually leaning towards voting Rummy right now.
Not to mention that something else I keep coming back to is the fact that I just don't really think Mafia would opt to whack what they knew to be a Fake Inspector (if Kanye was faking as town, that is, and thus the LD/JTR names were bullshit) over trying to get rid of Real Inspector N2. In that case, they'd know they're keeping Real Inspector alive to reveal the next day, and if it had been anyone OTHER than JTR, the counter claim would've carried a lot more weight and worth of consideration for Town.
This is one of the biggest things I keep coming back to. I just can't see why mafia would waste a whack on a fake inspector, leaving the real one alive. Which means Kanye is the real inspector.
I think his first post about JTR/LD was half joke/half clue for later. I just don't think he thought he nailed two of them with that post. After the confirmation of the N1 guess, it's no surprise he came out during N2. I bet the mafia were ready to whack him at that point. Probably would have done it N1, except for needing to take out Jortles first.
I legitimately don't have a good read on either of you right now.
The only thing I KNOW, is that LD was mafia.
Both of you ended up NOT voting for LD D2. However, Jaz had a vote on LD, then moved it to me on D2. I then moved my vote to LD, a move that kept LD in the game and ultimately got him voted out.
Just hoping the other townie sees this and realizes that I'm town as well.
Still not ready to cast my vote, won't be able to do a full read through and a post of more substance till probably 3 am or so.
Yeahhhh so here's how that went down, check the timestamps:
Suspicious of LD and Potent at the moment. Moreso of LD. My moving my vote to Jortles was completely random, so I'm suspicious of the people who piled on. It's not listed in the tally (attn: Jeremy Fragrance ), but Dan and LD were the first to move their votes to him and I couldn't help but notice that they were both on him while they were the other two people in the runoff. That's why I wanted to move my vote back to LD before realizing that it was VERY close to the deadline and moving my vote from Jortles would result in an outright lynch. Potent is lower on my suspicion list, but he moved off and LD and on to Jortles. He may have moved off of Jortles, but if it was a town/town runoff no townie or decent Mafia worth their salt would have stayed on Jortles at that point. I also think Rothric makes a good candidate for the runoff, esp because he received no votes in D1. I am a good candidate for this runoff also, for the same reasons (Jortles voter, didn't receive votes).
I am SO good at stacking unintentionally. I'll move it this time now that we have some info.
Jaz > LD > Rothric
I moved my vote literally immediately after I voted for LD when I saw that I had stacked when I didn't mean to. It's not like I bullshitted around and tried to save him later in the round or anything. Nobody had even posted between the minute that it took for me to notice and revote. While your literal description of my vote move is correct, the context shows that it was basically as if I hadn't voted for LD at all.
I agree that I think your stack was unintentional.
However, that doesn't mean it didn't provide the perfect cover for you to quickly move your vote off of your teammate. You state your primary suspicions are LD and Potent. I think your post actually reads as a very nice set-up for future distancing. And then when you saw the stack, you thought quickly and took advantage of the opportunity. Once you moved your vote onto me, you never took it off.
A move that almost saved your teammate D2.
In fact, I don't think you even mention LD again until after he's dead. He quickly went from being your primary target, to being forgotten about.
I'm actually feeling pretty good about this vote at this point.
Considering you've found the need to respond to my threads as if you are threatened by me I offer you some peace my confused counterpart. May you find peace in your restless soul.
1. I am genuinely exhausted by the number of times I've had to play the Mafia role lately--pls gimme a nice little Town role next time? Will say that at least I feel like my performance this time around made up for my pretty piss poor Mafia-ing last game. But D5 always hurts, no matter which side you're on--and I hate feeling like I gotta manipulate my homies. Bringing any combo of Roth, Jaz, Potent into D5 with me was gonna feel rough.
2. KANYE, WHAT?
3. LD, WHAT?
4. But seriously. Kanye, you FOOL. I was about 96% sure JTR was Inspector with Dan as his given as D2 concluded after my reread--in fact, so confident about it that when you did your funky little Faking as Town Reveal and fucking *framed* the Real Inspector, I suggested to my teammates "alright sooo...if we feel pretty sure JTR has Dan as his given, instead of whacking him tonight (as had been the plan), should we go the more entertaining route and keep him alive since Kanye already did the framing for us? No one will believe him." So yep, we went for it. Pls accept my sincere apologies, Cookin' Mama -- it fucking sucks to be Inspector who reveals and people don't buy it. Believe me, been there. But uhh, you've got Silver Surfer to blame for that one haha...we were gonna just let you go peacefully over N2, and only decided to play into the mind games because Kanye literally served the opportunity up to us on a silver platter.
5. Never thought I'd see the day that Town Jaz didn't vote for Mafia Rummy D5. I guess I've been working on my tell
6. Oh and back to LD....what was that about??? A little less crazy than Kanye's stunt but still some weird shit.

Are you me and jortles actually all town together at the same time?!? Because I literally didn’t think the day would come. And still shouldn’t trust that it has. So maybe I should hitch a ride on this Let’s Jump to Jortles Train lol

Will just leave you guys with a few bs notes that you can take how you want.
1. In two recent games as Mafia, Rummy has done this terribly obvious thing where she lays out her trajectory of a vote switch off of her Mafia teammate. She ends up talking about it at length out loud. If you guys end up finding out that either her or Dan are Mafia, I'd look into the other on. Will be pretty embarrassing if this was her beginning that process of switching from Dan to me here. Surprised that nobody who played last game where she was about to do this with Jaz / Teddy moved to Dan to see if this would play out.
2. Potent feels different.
3. Idk what to say about Dan. Usually when he's a Townie in this situation he says a lot of "I'm not mafia" and plays a little looser. The quietness now in addition to Rummys potential "wind up" above makes me wonder (if we find out Dan is Mafia) if Dan is the only Mafia on me and that Rummy was getting worried that distancing could have bit her two games in a row.
4. Anything to read into regarding Theo's auto extension?
Lol yes am distinctly aware I've done it two games in a row as Mafia....so you think I'm trying for #3 in a row? I have a little more faith in y'all's observational skills than that. I ain't dumb and trust y'all aren't either...I was making a joke. I didn't actually switch to you. FWIW, I think you're very useful in this game as Town and I don't want to vote you out D1. APOLOGIES FOR THE JOKE, THO. I will be Very Earnest Rummy from here on out.
I think you presenting it as a joke in the beginning may have been your adjustment. Would have loved to see it play out but unfortunately we missed out.

Despite Kanye's terrible move, this game should have been won IMO. Had these goons read at the end of Day 1. Whole game can be seen in the quotes above.

Not everyone is the Mafia Messiah like you.
But also, I really did have every intention of staying on Dan no matter what. I wasn't telegraphing a Future Move this time around, so if it had gotten to play out (where Dan had one more vote than you and thus you hadn't been forced to reveal as Doc), I wonder if you would've held the same suspicions.
That said, yeah, you read this game fucking well. I think that's why the Mafia Gods won't let us be on the same time--they find it more entertaining to watch from above as we call each other out on shit time and time again.

yeaaahhh yeahh... Mafia will always deny the WAY they have been read. The fact is I've caught this same thing about you 3 games in a row now and you were Mafia each time. It doesn't really matter if you follow through with the switch. It is more that you are giving yourself the flexibility.
Now that I've called this out, this will never be a thing in the future because you will adjust. But it was fun while it lasted. Shame it wasn't ever taken advantage of and you won 2/3 games.
EDIT: congrats on the win, obviously. Just an annoyed townie over here.

It's really easy to say when you're dead. Nobody except for me even gave a serious second thought to Kanye's fake though. The town has no idea what to believe - somebody says they are inspector, the town usually believes them, and the first to reveal usually gets the benefit of the town. It was the reason town lost this game. To get to your argument (which obviously is correct), you'd have to entertain the thought that Dan was mafia, or that JTR was inspector, and the town didn't do that. They lynched the living inspector!!!
Every game - townie does something inexplicably stupid, town loses directly because of it, people pile on after the game, wash rinse repeat.
This one is on Kanye 80% and LD 20%.
Yeah. I don't mind losing when the Mafia play well (and Rummy had me completely fooled this game), but this game becomes impossible to play when other townies can't be trusted. Kanye threw me off the Mafia's scent for the whole game. I'm glad I didn't invest too much energy in this one.

I mean I fully expect us to be bitter towards each other's opposing wins until the Unimaginable Happens (and we aren't in opposition)

One day they will write "Jortles would have believed JTR" on my tombstone. During all the reveal wars of the last 5-6 games, the person who put in more effort was telling the truth. Why would someone go for a 3rd reveal? I know every game is new, but 3 times in a row? After we've just seen how much effort Kanye puts into reveals when he is Mafia?
I don't blame anyone though. It was a terrible, terrible decision by Kanye.
Just don't lynch me Day 1 next time so I can make a fool of myself later in the game next time and look like an idiot.

I agree completely.
If Kanye hadn't have pulled his stunt, JTR would've been whacked overnight and thus the game would've had zero reveals instead of two...but then people could've traced back JTR's posts/hints and used that to their advantage. Given how confident I was that JTR was our Inspector by end of D2--confident to the point that we kept him alive because Kanye had perfectly set up a framing of him--I trust Town would've gotten to conclusion of Dan was JTR's given name with review of D1&2.
Plus, I didn't even have to bullshit much on D5 lol. Like, I was making points that genuinely made sense to me & in most other games would've been factual: like "why would Mafia not whack who they thought to be Real Inspector N2?" It was so easy to hone in on that because the reality is, if we'd felt it was anyone else but JTR we would've ignored Kanye's shenanigans and tried to whack who we really thought it was...but since he framed the guy we were already gunning for, it was too easy to just keep him alive & discredit his counter claim.

GG hope not to die early next game (in for the next). That was my first time being mafia in so long, definitely felt rusty.
I'm keeping a list of our D1 lynches and have committed to a rotation in my D1 voting. Obviously it will be impacted if we have mafia and know it - if I find out next game D1 you are mafia, I'll vote you out obviously.
Here is the list of D1 lynches during our quarantine games:

Took me a minute to remember 126 and 125 were swapped, because there was no way we lynched Rooloo d1 2 games in a row. Rooloo was definitely mafia in one of those too, I think 88?

In for next game also, not reffing however. Reffing and drafting is a great way to lose all productivity, and I’ve already tried to pick someone who was already drafted lmao. Next time I ref it will be themed too
I think it might have worked if you didn’t say JTR with your reveal. However, as Rummy said, they might have whacked JTR but you gave a nice out for them
