But here's my question:
Houssam, why do you think that mach is town? I'm not looking for sensitive info, I just want to know if it's based on something in his posting or voting record, or if it's just that you have a feeling....
Not paranoia at all. Based on yesterday this is a good question. RK and fircoal are more than feelings. You and mach were inclinations. For mach's case even though he was very uncharacteristically absent for the first half of this game, he seems to have come back with very useful and balanced votes as of late. Yesterday however with the whole deadline and voting for sen while having said he thought he was protown makes me wonder again. But who knows maybe tomorrow will bring us more info.
It wasn't even his deadline brainfart (and I'm pretty sure that was a brainfart, otherwise it would've been the most obvious push for a lynch in the history of the game, and I'm inclined to give Mach more credit than that)... it's a bunch of other stuff...
Like mach's voting record:
day1: first to vote for puff
day2: didn't vote for anyone (may have been away, who knows)
day3: jumped right on the everywhere lynch, second vote behind cblake
day4: voted chessplaya, the most mafia-ish looking guy at the time behind cblake
day5: #2 in the lynch-tres bandwagon.
Everyone he voted for looked scummy in some way, but then again, if he was mafia, he'd be thrilled that so many townies were taking the fall for him. And he'd be aggressive in going after them.
Plus Mach was really going after geegel/tres, trying hard to make gee/tre look scummy. Mach laid out his suspicions of gee/tre on days 2, 3, and 4. And of course the day 5 vote.
That's part of it. But here's another thing to consider: how is it that mach isn't dead yet? There aren't enough noobs left for the mafia to be solely noobish, so it's not like the mafia don't know him or his rep in these games. Who on earth would kill a chaotic gamekiller like cblake instead of mach, if given the choice? Unless it was mach pulling the trigger. Perhaps he was afraid that we'd finally manage to decode some of CB's stuff (not likjely, but whatever), maybe mach is certain enough of victory that he killed off CB for aethetic reasons. I dunno.
And yeah, mach's posts have been good, but mach's posts are always good. It wouldn't surprise me if he's adept at the art of seeming like you're giving out good info to the town, when all you're really trying to do is seem pro-town enough to stay out of the lynch line.
Unfortunately for him, Mach is one of those veteran players whose continued survival can raise an eyebrow. So maybe this is all grasping at straws.
But I can definitely see a situation where mach and dussle and maybe senfive are mafia.
Feedback would be appreciated.
