For ease of reading, I have condensed Bill Murray's last 9 posts into one post.

@Abenson: How is YellowInk's post useful? Only thing he did was lump Bill Murray's post together and offer no complete insight about it at all. Also, since BM did not turn out to be jail-keeper, should the amendment to YI plan be necessary?

Bill, I am glad you are putting together more thoughtful posts than the spam previously. Take a moment to consider some pairs of things you've presented recently:
On July 08 2010 08:41 Bill Murray wrote: and with that I'M being told I'm "stifling discussion"? you all are the ones pushing a policy lynch on a pro-town player! On July 07 2010 14:29 Bill Murray wrote: scummy=/=scum i am a scummy player i am not scum i am a power role, specifically, our jailkeeper. You say you're a scummy player, then you say you're a pro-town player. This contradicts. Obviously you claim to be town, but there's no way you can claim to be scummy then shortly thereafter claim to be pro town. If you're going to play scummy (which is a valid playstyle), it will have certain repercussions. Double talk like this won't help your case, though. Your play style is not pro town even if you are town aligned.

On July 07 2010 15:02 Bill Murray wrote: also, what i mean to say is i should have seen him break that jeep's scum tell when he said "bm is town". He wouldn't do that to a fellow mafia member at all. This whole argument on me is WIFOM so give it a rest. You had just gotten done saying that using citi.zen's info was WIFOM, now you're using it to defend yourself. This is scummy play. Not the good kind of scummy play that draws scum out to jump on you. The bad scummy play that just makes you look bad to everyone. There are many more examples like this throughout your thread.
In summary, if you are town, you should at this point make nothing but reserved and well thought out posts. Contribute to the discussion, put in your opinions. If you try to barrel people over they're just going to point back to everything that's happened today and discount what you have to say. If this is the position you wanted to be in, that's cool. If not, hopefully you'll see why what happened happened and set yourself up better next game.

Citi.Zen and I have been bickering all game. I have been calling his play terrible and traitorous much like I have yours. I'm not worried about next game, BRA, i'm worried about this one. You're not going to sway the town against the one person who feels like he is honestly trying to save it. These words, I do not think they mean what you think they mean: Implied, scummy, honestly
You're still a liar, Bill Murray. I don't even know why I try.

Nothing has changed from this in discussion except I believe Hesmyrr would rather see roleblocks go to BM and a coroner to claim and pop.

This being said, people who have used these last 48 hours to say nothing will be getting a good, hard, scrutinizing look tomorrow should this be the case. Then maybe we'll hang Bill Murray anyway, but probably not short of a DT check on him.

The one modification being talked about is if we should RB youngmini. I think both methods are about even. I am 99% sure he is town, so leaving it off him so we can get an extra check in while RBing someone else makes sense.
Other than that caveat, only the second item on the list is currently passed. I would recomend all blues follow this revised plan. If we come back with no KP, I'm going to be laying suspicion on youngminii and will not be convinced that the godfather is dead. If you roleblock someone besides youngminii and KP gets blocked, this will make my head hurt and slow us down a lot. All jail youngminii because I am reasonably convinced that he is the DT.
We need to be in agreement about this.
If the mafia chooses not to use their KP because of this plan, well, that's cool. I don't think they will, though. We'll still be getting plenty of advantage from our other DT(s). They'll probably take out zeks, Abenson, or Divinek - a fine cost to pay for confirmation of a dead godfather.

On July 10 2010 04:06 rastaban wrote: So any plans on what we should shoot for tomorrow?
If there is no kill then suspicion falls on youngminii If there is a kill then most likely we need to keep youngminii jailed and start systematically DTing /RBing suspected mafia.
Now our RB died, and it is such a powerful role I highly doubt we had 2, but maybe the dream catcher caught it. I'm confident we have another RB. Without an active town RB in the midgame it's nearly impossible for town to win in this setup. Having only one RB just doesn't make sense.

Well this is unfortunate. We appear to have no roleblocker.
We could still be in any of the 3 cases:
90%) youngminii is a DT and we hung citi.zen the godfather, leaving us up against up to 2 goons 9%) youngminii is a goon and we hung citi.zen the goon, leaving us up against GF, youngminii-goon, and up to one more goon 1%) youngminii is the godfather and we hung citi.zen the goon, leaving us up against youngminii-GF and up to 2 goons
It is safe to assume youngminii was jailed. Since he was not roleblocked, scenario 2 can't be eliminated. However, if this is the case, we have one other way to discover it - with a (3rd!) coroner. As I had indicated yesterday, I somewhat agreed with the idea that was presented that having a coroner confirmation would be good, I just didn't want to pop what was likely the last coroner if a roleblock could discern for us the same information. So at this time I am requesting that the coroner roleclaim. This will confirm you as town tomorrow after your ability pops and also provide us with more information to plan how we want to tackle this day.
Should we have no coroner, I believe our best plan is from here on out to fully assume youngminii is precisely who he says he is. The only other option would be to hang him, but this would put us in a situation where if we are in case 1, we are throwing away a huge swath of games won. I don't like this option. So coroner, if you exist, please step up.
Note that in case 1, BM is town. In cases 2 and 3, BM's alignment is indeterminate. So I'm definitely not looking to hang him right now, but that doesn't mean you should listen to him. ::headdesk::
As a side note, since L's plan on day 1 was significantly pro-mafia, I think it's reasonable to assume L was the night 0 recruit. Take this for what you will in your own considerations.
More analysis to come in probably 10-12 hours or after a role claim, whichever comes first. This will be my thoughts for lynching among the populace short of someone coming forward with significant information.

I don't really care anymore, BM. Chances are I'm going to have to play the remainder of this game assuming you are town. I just wish you'd play on our team.

You two (mostly BM) need to stop spamming obvious and commonly known info. You are encouraging the remainder of the town to be inactive. This makes it difficult to find scum.

Well, since this thread is dead, and the appointed time has come (and no coroner has claimed), I'm going to finger BrownBear. I like him as the n2 recruit. Compare his early game post quality to his more recent behavior. He has posted a great deal throughout the game, but of late the number of places where he takes a significant opinion or provides productive input to the town has sharply declined. The difference is like night and day.
BrownBear may defend that he has been camp counselor working long days, but this didn't prevent him from providing great input in the early game, nor has it kept him from posting in significant quantity in the more recent areas of the game.
I would suggest rastaban and Chezinu as ideal detective targets for tonight.

I have voted for you pending you proving to me that you aren't, or someone else proving that a third party IS scum.
If there's any confusion as to whether or not I'm scum, then just have youngminii rolecheck me tonight. I promise you you won't find anything. You are not the first person to call me scum, but you continue in the fine tradition of several (likely town) players in this game of not providing cause. How am I to present a satisfactory defense if you do not provide points for me to counter as I did for you?
I believe zeks to be likely town, but he ninjavoted me. I must believe BM to be town due to the circumstances of the game despite what his posts scream at me, but he also fails to provide reasons. These two have excuses for me to let them off the hook for not providing evidence since it is fair for me to assume they are not scum. You are not in the same boat.
Provide content, provide reasons, provide evidence, make a good case against me. Then I will counter and perhaps be convinced you are not scum.

On July 11 2010 07:30 Bill Murray wrote:[b]@ Yellowink: [/b Show nested quote +]"Provide content, provide reasons, provide evidence, make a good case against me. Then I will counter and perhaps be convinced you are not scum." He doesn't have to do that at all. Just the feel of your posts this game feel like you believe that the town needs evidence to lynch someone who isn't providing any. We don't. Your world of policy is not constructive towards town play, and gets people lynched for the wrong reasons. That's why people hate the way that I play, because I encourage craziness which, believe it or not, if tolerated, is pro-town. When you get into policy-lynching over "VI" players (village idiots) like myself, abenson... johnnyspazz? i don't know who else. It's different person to person because everyone has different opinions, it really stifles the ability to properly get scum to flail and squirm because you are focusing more on "bad posters" and why someone is doing what they're doing, when to properly be town, and for this website to be better at being town, people need to focus on WHAT they're doing. I am not 100% you are scum, my gut tells me you are, which is good enough for me. I am hesitant to really lynch anyone at this point, as everyone is so likely town, though. I would not mind lynching someone who is more inactive and trying to hide, though. DCLXVI would be a good target in that regard I understand this line of thinking. Often you can use this sort of gut feeling to point yourself in the right direction. Unfortunately, if you are a town player and fingering another town player and using this kind of 'logic', scum can agree with you (similarly providing no reason), and the town on defense has no way to provide defense to the argument. This makes the town ripe for bandwagoning. Therefore, I demand evidence. If no reasoning is provided, you just make it too easy for scum to take advantage of your gut.
Consider that my gut is screaming that you are mafia. youngminii to some degree as well. Unfortunately, if you two are mafia, we've already lost the game. I therefore play as though you are town despite my instinct. Obviously this argument does not apply to me - I am not a 'confirmed' townie, so I am a reasonable target for a lynch.
For my generic defense as a town player, I would point to my posting record and all that I have contributed to the understanding of this game as well as formulate and disparage strategy where appropriate. I initiated the game pointing out that everyone should contribute. From this base of knowledge there is now a great deal of information now to be gleaned. Further, I would say that among all the players in this game, I have been one of the leading contributers with respect to assisting the town in finding what direction to take - what is good vs what is not as good. Many examples of my behavior can be found throughout this thread that significantly benefit the town.
To go on about those who are 'confirmed' town, zeks also gets a pass in this respect since the real masons would have come out to finger zeks today at the very latest, so you can now consider him confirmed town. Since Ace roleblocked DCLXVI on night 2, you can also know that DCLXVI is town since if DCLXVI was even the night 2 recruit, the mafia KP would have been blocked since recruitment occurs before mafia KP. Beyond this is merely conjecture, but considering we have 4 confirmed townies, I think it is reasonable for zeks' mason companion to reveal. I would be more comfortable with this and zeks confirming while alive with his own voice than after death as I suspect that zeks did not provide a very secure cryptogram.
For now my vote remains on BrownBear for the reasons I stated earlier. It is believable that his counseling started at the time which I notice the significant difference, but it doesn't explain why he is able to still post a similar amount of quantity while the quality sharply drops.
If anyone has questions about my actions and cares to frame them in a manner better than their 'gut', I would be glad to respond.

You found BrownBear convincing? He didn't even address the entirety of the point of why I voted for him. Yeah, I know he's got his new job, but he's still found the time to post an awful lot but suddenly not be contributing. He then voted for me stating in the vote thread that it was a semi-placeholder but also that he didn't want to die (condoning the bandwagon on me). What does someone have to do to convince you that they're red, BM? I'm curious?
|
Yo, town, you guys need to play, and not just when you're having votes leveled at you. I'm currently on the block to be lynched with 3 votes: zeks' ninjavote, youngminii's unexplained "I'm suspicious of you" vote, and BrownBear's "semi-placeholder I just don't want to die" vote. You all know that if you basically abstain (ie vote for yourselves) from voting, don't participate in discussion, etc etc, that the mafia will win with the power of 1-2 votes, yes?
So play. Talk. Vote. Use your townie power.
