Any player launching a nuke against another without at the very least providing coherent argument for doing so will be lynched.

To me, the tone OpZ used gives me the impression that he has the power to nuke. Doesn't feel scummy to me at this point of the game though. If you're Mafia, that would be a dumb way to get unwanted attention.


You disagree with my observation on ~OpZ~ fine, i made it clear it was mostly intuitive based on how I tried to act when I was mafia, you then coming out and making what is essentially a slight accusation without actually doing so concerns me more. If I was mafia then yes it might be unintelligent to bring attention to myself early in this way, that is obvious.

What concerns me more is did you type that just to state something obvious or did you just want to write the word "mafia" about another player?


You totally misread my post. I'm not talking about you at all.
I said "IF you're mafia", you wouldn't want unnecessary attention, which is what OpZ did.

That's a WIFOM.

I don't think that's a WIFOM, that's the kind of stunt L pulls all the time.
WIFOM would be me saying something like "or is it a WIFOM?"

in any case that's a scumtell, either way.

I actually reread my post a couple times after you quoted me, as you didn't make much sense.
If I was actually "accusing" you, then MY sentence wouldn't make sense at all.

I still don't know how you interpreted the "other" way. Maybe something to hide ?

I actually just googled WIFOM as I've never heard of this term before.

So you're saying I was playing the WIFOM game or Xelin?
If you meant me, then no.

Yes, I do not see any problem with it, especially it doesn't have to worry about ToD and possibility of the nuker having more than one anti-missile defense. I do not believe I spammed that much though; most of my posts contain my opinion about how to play this game, and well, how do you expect me to respond when Caller is going all ##Nuke:haster27?

Firstly you are quoting me, so when you wrote "If you're Mafia", I took it to be me. Think the misinterpretation lies in the word "that", I took it to refer to the post you quoted of mine//my voting and reasoning in voting for OpZ and not to what OpZ wrote.



If you still can't understand how I could misinterpret it then I'm just going to give up and call you an idiot ^^

Fishball// It refers to ~OpZ~. Because of the possibility that he chose to make that post thinking that others will defend him this way, we should not dismiss him as a Town because he is playing game unsubtly. Like I said in the post before, mod-kill policy forces Mafia to be active, so this should not be farfetched idea.

I will respond to Elemenope's post in a moment, for whoever asked me to...Xelin voting for me made me want to respond.

You didn't respond to anything about my post. You just read my post and says he's trying to claim town. Now Xelin, I hate to tell you this, but your instinct is wrong. Also, your lynch idea as being the perfect retaliation to nuking? Wrong.

Let's look at this set up. 22 players. We don't know how many night kills, the number of mafia, if mafia have special roles/nukes. Now, if mafia had an ass load of nukes, it's already certain that we would have a very big problem. I don't think they will have all too many nukes, and firing a nuke is a huge problem.

I made an effort to outline a basic idea, and state we shouldn't just jump the gun on lynching. I also said I will not be forced around or follow a bandwagon. Only time I ever really bandwagoned was as mafia. I usually vote against the consensus, as last game when I voted you over BM.

Bandwagoning in this game is especially frightening because the days end after a majority, not on a set schedule. I intend to use what power I have to stop this from occurring. Bandwagons are costly in this game. Everyone needs to post how they feel, not just vote. We need to agree on a larger scale I feel before beginning.

Also, as for my change of play, the rules are TOTALLY different then most other games. We have nukes, we have a majority lynch that can occur the INSTANT a majority is reached. This means we have to think.

Also, check it, Fishball done laid into me last game.

It wasn't referring to anyone. It was an assumption.

Eg.
If you're blind, driving a car would be asking for disaster
If you're sick, you wouldn't want to go to school.

So did I say that you ARE blind/sick? No.

I'm not talking about interpreting it based on your own personal intention I'm talking about the actual word usage itself meaning it is possible for either interpretation to be correct.

interesting
both you and caller have a knack for not reading the rules. mafia have 1kp per night, it is pretty clear in the op
Mafia have night kills just like in normal games. Mafia can kill 1 player per night no matter how many of them are alive.


so you say that lynching all nukers is wrong. then you say "look at the setup" but provide no concrete evidence as to what is wrong with it. so, i'm asking you,

What is wrong with the lynch all nukers plan?

And OpZ don't read too much into my choosing to vote you atm, we are not going to have much information on anyone this early on and I just intuitively sensed something off in what you posted, could be wrong certainly.

Also as to this "Also, your lynch idea as being the perfect retaliation to nuking? Wrong."

Firstly I don't think it is perfect, just better than the other option which seems to be Nuke a Nuker, but anyway, why is it wrong?

Versatile I'm not being sensitive, he's gone on to suggest that I have purposefully misinterpreted what he wrote for my own ends (the suggestion being I could be mafia because of it)

Also I am not wrong he is, what he wrote can be correctly interpreted in either way, it was too ambiguous.

As to the idea of retaliation against a player who has an itchy trigger finger, we have the perfect form of retaliation. We lynch them. Or to put it more bluntly

Any player launching a nuke against another without at the very least providing coherent argument for doing so will be lynched. Furthermore the only instance whereby we would launch against a player who acts in this way would be if we already have a good candidate for lynching, then we will nuke or multiple nuke them (I am of the opinion that 2 ought to be enough)

His post earlier on both seemed different in style to the way he posted in the last game and also was riddled with subtle "I am town" choice of wording, something I consciously made an effort to do in the last game I was mafia so guess I'll go along with my instinct here.


To me, the tone OpZ used gives me the impression that he has the power to nuke. Doesn't feel scummy to me at this point of the game though. If you're Mafia, that would be a dumb way to get unwanted attention.


You disagree with my observation on ~OpZ~ fine, i made it clear it was mostly intuitive based on how I tried to act when I was mafia, you then coming out and making what is essentially a slight accusation without actually doing so concerns me more. If I was mafia then yes it might be unintelligent to bring attention to myself early in this way, that is obvious.

What concerns me more is did you type that just to state something obvious or did you just want to write the word "mafia" about another player?

Slight accusation? He was saying if I was mafia it would be dumb to do as I did? I've done gotten what, 3 votes for that post? Lol. Why? Because I said I wouldn't be pushed around, or watch L create a bandwagon without hearing from a player?
Maybe I could teach Osama that using a plane as a wraith or dropship would be 10x better than using it as a scourge..... ^^; -Flex

I will respond to Elemenope's post in a moment, for whoever asked me to...Xelin voting for me made me want to respond.

You didn't respond to anything about my post. You just read my post and says he's trying to claim town. Now Xelin, I hate to tell you this, but your instinct is wrong. Also, your lynch idea as being the perfect retaliation to nuking? Wrong.

Let's look at this set up. 22 players. We don't know how many night kills, the number of mafia, if mafia have special roles/nukes. Now, if mafia had an ass load of nukes, it's already certain that we would have a very big problem. I don't think they will have all too many nukes, and firing a nuke is a huge problem.

I made an effort to outline a basic idea, and state we shouldn't just jump the gun on lynching. I also said I will not be forced around or follow a bandwagon. Only time I ever really bandwagoned was as mafia. I usually vote against the consensus, as last game when I voted you over BM.

Bandwagoning in this game is especially frightening because the days end after a majority, not on a set schedule. I intend to use what power I have to stop this from occurring. Bandwagons are costly in this game. Everyone needs to post how they feel, not just vote. We need to agree on a larger scale I feel before beginning.

Also, as for my change of play, the rules are TOTALLY different then most other games. We have nukes, we have a majority lynch that can occur the INSTANT a majority is reached. This means we have to think.

Also, check it, Fishball done laid into me last game.


interesting
both you and caller have a knack for not reading the rules. mafia have 1kp per night, it is pretty clear in the op

Mafia have night kills just like in normal games. Mafia can kill 1 player per night no matter how many of them are alive.


so you say that lynching all nukers is wrong. then you say "look at the setup" but provide no concrete evidence as to what is wrong with it. so, i'm asking you,

What is wrong with the lynch all nukers plan?


It's a WASTE of time. Do you think mafia will have all kinds of nukes to just launch? To throw themselves out there and pray we don't retaliate? I agree retaliation is necessary, but ending the day right there to give them another kill, when it was most likely an idiot townie? Go look at Caller's game, the CIA agent was the last person to execute someone, and ended the game with it. It's already been stated how big of a gambit it is to just throw yourself out into the open. I agree with retaliating, but directly saying launch 3 nukes is bad, and simply ending the day is bad. The situation should determine the means of countering.

That is what my problem with the plans. So far, I like the lynch plan best, because it doesn't increase the ToD.
