One blue to claim will be enough to throw crap on bum and people who support him. Sure, it might lead to lynching the blue or having him killed, but it will be a 1-1 trade with the black team (or reds, w/e)
Think about it, Blacks are bullet-proof, they are only scared of being lynched. And you're saying that their plan is to stick their heads out and draw attention to themselves? Possibly putting themselves in a position to be lynched day one?
Pleezee. If another blue wants to confirm his alignment I'm all ears. If another blue wants to burst his bubble I'm all ears. Either way it's lose/lose for town. We lose bum if he's blue. We lose another blue if he's not. Or we lose 2 if another blue confirms him. How is that good for town???? It's not. How is that good for black???? You already answered that.

Making his voters feel uneasy about voting for him is scum tactics 101.
FOS Jackal Please. Save it. Their are 4 blues listed in the OP. One of them "accidentally" lets it slip? So another comes out to confirm him? And now scum has half of the blues on the table? C'mon. It's a bs claim. It's damn near foolproof. No blue with a half a brain is going to confirm him. Don't you get it? A blue doesn't need to claim to confirm him unless a mafia ccs. Mafia cc = 2 blues exposed for a mafia lynch day one. In that case, one of the blues will be mayor and as such unkillable, and we can simply put a medic on the second one. GG If bum IS mafia, then a blue should absolutely 100% cc right now. Until that happens, anyone giving a bullshit reason for not voting bum as mayor should be at the top of the lynch list. Fine. He's blue. I don't buy it.

Whats not to get? We hope if he's black there will be a cc. 4 blues and a bunch of noobs in the game. I'm not holding my breath.
Anyways here is a 1 in 3 chance of hitting a red or a black: 1. Coagulation 2. darmousseh 3. Jackal58 4. annul 5. Tackster 6. Lemonwalrus
I'm green. I suspect Coag is as well. So going on that we have a 50/50 shot at a red and a black between darm, annul, Tackster and LW.
Tackster and Lemon I don't know. So I don't know what to expect out of their play. I haven't seen darm post yet. Is annul red again? Wouldn't put it past LSB to do so. Or maybe he changed it up and made him black.
I would recommend confining our day 1 lynch to somebody on this list.

It's always been a bad idea for scum to claim something first. You can't claim DT or getting shot when there's just 1 dt or 1 shot in the game, because you will be faced with counter-claims.
So far, there's just one claim of blue. There are two scenarios: a) All REAL blues are asleep and will counter-claim later on. b) He is blue and the three other blue are keeping their mouth shut as they should.
IF there's gonna be a counter claim, I assume there will be at least one more person supporting EITHER of them. So, whoever is lying (be it mafia or blacks), they will have to stick out at least TWO people (which can be up to four if we go there), in order to get an election. Would you risk that as scum/3rd party just for the mayor role? No. You don't put 2 people on the line on day one for no reason.
And if we figure out who's lying (person with least supporters?), then one of them gets mayor'd, and the rest get medic protected or who knows. The point is, in the end, it's not a smart move for EITHER Black or Red to sacrifice people 1:1 (even if they get blues), because they're also fighting each other.
So, unless you get counter-claims for blues, you can 99% sure assume that bum is town. If cops saw this but decided not to counter-claim, then either they have a good reason for it, OR they're being dumb.
You seem to think that they are dumb, for some reason.
I'm over it Cub. It was just to damn convenient looking.

What if we don't have any medics? Insane thought isn't it?

Mind fuckery! I think I lived fairly long in that game too using the same strategy. The mafia finally decided to hit me while a vigilante did as well when I was a Vet. So my lights went out The only blue roles listed are the 4 cop roles. I have no idea what powers LSB intends to pass out to all the townies so I don't know if medics will be included in the list but they aren't going to be the traditional "blue" role. I and the other 5 in the item game are not going to receive any additional powers according to the OP but apparently will receive some type of item that we can bring to the main game if we get rid of the opposing factions. That's the reason I want the first lynch list to be from the 6 in the item game. Town wants those items.

I'm at work. Pardon me. Voting for somebody that can't keep their alignment to themselves for 4 hours bodes exceptionally well doesn't it?

I withdraw from mayor. My vote will go to Kav.

On March 25 2011 01:51 chaoser wrote: BTW guys, one really important thing to remember is that this IS insane mafia. Mafia might have some sort of recruiting power that can be stopped by protects or something which is why LSB said it's not in our best interest to claim most of the time. So let's be a bit more cautious with any plans for claiming in the future. While bum's claim was unavoidable after he slipped and I will vote for him, lets not follow in his example and claim all over. So you support a mayor that can't post without inadvertently saying stuff he probably shouldn't? He got nked in XXXVI on night 1 because he let his role slip in a pm circle. Seems to be an ongoing issue with him.

Bum is probably our best bet for all the reasons people have already stated so I wont parrot them off.
One thing that is worrying me right now is Jackal. I had previously pegged him as probably town with Coag just making a huge scum slip by saying that Jackal was confirmed. However with his sudden opposition to Bum I'm getting more suspicious of him. At this point there really isn't a reason not to vote for Bum unless you're not town allied and don't want a confirmed mayor.
I'd also like to point out that not only is Jackal's "focus on the item game" plan was originally Chaoser's, I just qouted it and reiterated it when I decided to vote for him. I saw that a little while ago. Didn't mean to give credit where credit isn't due.
I'm only opposed to Bum because it is just too damned convenient. I don't put much faith in oopsy look what I did.

That is yet another convolution that irc will bring to the process. (although if we caught someone impersonating it would make it pretty obvious they were scum...so a potential for reward if a scum were to be so bold as to impersonate someone) I think the real problem with the irc is that there is such a thing as too much information when you are trying to make a decision. If we have pages and pages of posts and pages and pages of irc logs to go by, 2 sides could make bulletproof arguments for one person being scum/not scum, and it could be almost impossible to tell who was right with any sort of objectivity. Also....picking through irc logs sounds really tedious. I know that has no importance in the function of the game, but I just feel it will be less fun with a mountain of irc logs...and I kinda want to have fun. Don't sweat it. People want to lynch me for not tunneling others.

Don't lose sight of these things when I'm gone. 1) Bum is almost certainly confirmed blue at this point so he'd be a great mayor
2) Watch the people from the item game, there's gonna be anti town players in there and if we can isolate and kill them that'll be a boon for the town.
3) Watch Coag and Jackal, not liking either of them atm because of Coag's confirm on Jackal and Jackal's sudden opposition to Bum.
4) Kav and GM are probably town, read previous games they were in and this is how they acted when town. Also I haven't really seen anything overtly scummy out of them yet.
5) Start pressuring lurkers! There are a lot of people with low to no posts and we should take a look at them. In perticular I'd like Eiii, Amber[LighT], Beneather, orgolove, and OriginalName to post some and tell us what they're thinking.
I have no idea why Coag suddenly decided I was town. You'd have to ask him that. I know I don't trust anybodies alignment atm no matter how blue they say they are.
My opposition to Bum was from waking up at 5 and reading the thread and seeing Hai Gaiz I'm Blue!!!! My initial reaction was bullshit. I posted my initial reaction. That post said bullshit. 8 hours later and my reaction has moved from bullshit to bull. I don't trust him. I have no reason to trust him. I don't know who is on the blue team. So I have no inherent trust in nameless faces. The man just got killed by letting his role slip in a PM circle in XXXVII. Night 1 boom he's gone. And he does it again a week later??? Sorry. I'm not buying what he's selling. I might be wrong but on night 0 I'm going to lean towards the side that my gut reaction had. That reaction was bullshit. If that makes me scummy in your eyes I'm sure you'll get over it.

He replaced ICanFlyLow like on Day 2 or Day 3. He also flipped green. I don't think anyone on my team was in a PM circle with him in that game so he didn't let his role PM slip. Go check on that game if you want but he's clearly marked dead Night 3. Well damn me. I got my beneathers and bums crossed.

They have different winning conditions (reds and blacks), so the only teams that would want to work together is greens and blues.
I like that Tackster is being methodical about this, but I will say it right now, if there are no counter-claims, I'll be highly suspicious of anyone who keeps claiming that picking bum is a bad idea. In fact, it's such a GOOD idea I was actually going over the rules a few times to make sure there's no slip from the mod that would allow a confirmed townie to get picked as mayor.
While I do admit that the blue team MIGHT be a bunch of afk-ers or too dumb to counter-claim (sorry, but it's true), you all must accept that that's a very small possibility. I'm going to sit on my vote until role PMs are sent out. I did Bum a disservice confusing him with play from XXXVII that wasn't his. But I'm still concerned about voting a mayor that let his alignment slip that easily.
