Rodzaju: @ Jess:
My understanding of Nmillar’s vote was that it was RVS vote.
She just decided to leave it there until she had a solid suspect, which she did not at the time in question.
I never claimed you were more suspicious than anyone else. However, I did see a possibility (as described in my post) that you could be suspicious. My vote was more to get a reaction than an attempt to lynch you.
My speculation started from confusion over his death.
As you said, he was not an obvious target for mafia kill.
So, maybe they didn’t kill him.
I then came up with a scenario that fit this idea.
This then led to the Vig speculation, which led to you (as mentioned).
I then thought that, perhaps mafia killed him precisely BECAUSE he was an unlikely target, to sow confusion & misdirection.
Then I saw how the two theories dovetailed.
The tell I saw was:
“Way back in post 88, in response to my lack of suspects, she suggested Nmillar.
I can see nothing in the game to that point that singled Nmillar out as a suspect.”
The main point of my post was that you appear as town, but is this because you are town, or is it just that you have learned to look town.
The 2 questions at the end were intended as just that, questions.
Indeed nmillar's initial vote on you was RVS, and his #63 tried to solidify the vote into a real one without making too much of a case on you, which was why I was surprised you didn't pick up on it or call it out. Let's look at the post again and your reaction to it:
nmillar: Joke theory? Presumably you're saying that since you are one of the aforementioned Canadian Mafia? :P
On a serious note, I tend to agree with your comments about Robbeasy. I'm pretty sure his role claim is a genuine one, but like you say, he can't live to the end game. For the time-being, however, we may as well keep him alive and investigate other people for signs of scumminess (sp?).
Since my vote is already on one of Robbeasy's accusers (Rodzaju), I'll leave it where it is.
Paraphrased nmillar-post: On a serious note, I (nmillar) agree with you (jess) about Robb. I think his claim is genuine. For now we could keep him alive
and investigate others. My RVS vote is already on Rod, who is voting Robb, so I will quietly leave it there
to look like I'm somehow scumhunting, when I offer no new insight, question, point of view, reaction prodding, etc, EVEN THOUGH I had just said for now we should investigate others. And I can pretend it's a real vote now to distance myself from my scumbuddy, while leaving me an "out" for later if his wagon builds, because it was technically my earlier RVS vote.
And what was your response to that post?
Rodzaju: Only the last post says anything at all, & that's a fairly wishy-washy "I agree with Jess".
So you definitely did read that post. But I had said I didn't suspect you at that point. So while nmillar started out agreeing with me, I'm surprised you didn't comment on nmillar's weak bandwagoning of Robb's vote on you, since our votes and non-suspicions of you definitely did not agree with each other. I mean, unless you knew his true intent behind the vote, right? And wasn't worried about where his loyalties really were.
Yes, perhaps Mafia killed him because he was an unlikely target. That is a fair point - he was probably the least likely person to get protected (though for the main reason that he had lots of suspicion on him), but it still really helped clear out a big cloud for town, so I dunno. It's as likely a vig rather than Mafia actually did it in that situation though according to your theory, so why do you think I'm Mafia trying to blame a vig from all that, as opposed to the actual vig? Miller being vigged eventually before Lylo IS the correct long-term play for town, if a vig exists, and even Robb acknowledged that. If not, they'll have to be lynched, and a wasted town lynch is far more valuable than Mafia getting a near-guaranteed kill on the first night by striking the unlikeliest target.
And no, the two tells you listed were ,
"Way back in post 88, in response to my lack of suspects, she suggested Nmillar.
I can see nothing in the game to that point that singled Nmillar out as a suspect.”
and,
"So, is Jess leading us to expect that Rob is to be Vig'ed to cover mafia hit?"
You're using the call for a vig as a second tell. If only Orry made some nice scumhunting posts instead of being so scummy seeming, my vote would hop over to one of you two in a heartbeat.
