Ugh, inactivity is going to kill this game as it's a majority lynch system but I'm as much to blame as anyone else.
I'm fairly certain Mafia is among those lying low unless everyone just lost interest in this game because they know in this setup it's very much favourable for Mafia if everyone just sits back and doesn't do anything.
For this point Ace's I-don't-care attitude in encouraging more inactivity rubs me the wrong way. Ace you're a renowned player, can you give some thoughts?
For now:
##Vote: Ace
|
And if you're Town, please start posting. I will do so myself now as well.
I got no pressure at all (no one even mentioned me actually) even though I was the hammer on DR and I've been MIA almost the entire game (sorry guys). For Mafia it would be ridiculously easy to no post their way to victory while the active players argue with each other all day.

Where is RedFF and Palmer They havn't posted much on D2 at all the last time RedFF posted was to accuse me after I called him scum and the last time palmer said anything was before that and votes for Pyo.
My most likely mafia right now are RedFF, Palmer, and aprudds. I still don't think anyone has made a real case vs Ace that is better than any of these three people. I think right now the best case is against aprudds so to recap. + Show Spoiler +On July 26 2011 11:32 Sevryn wrote:Show nested quote +On July 22 2011 12:32 aprudds wrote: And yes VisceraEyes, it does look like your making stuff up and putting them in people's mouths.

But I won't agree to it here because there's no need.
Ace just wants to. That's why it's being considered. Then go scum hunt. Why are you getting so worked up over something pointless? Do you honestly believe people will go for a random lynch if you have solid evidence against someone? I think you just have a bone to pick with ace and are trying to find any excuse to point at him.

I'm sure i will have to adjust to the play style on here. I've mostly played "vanilla games" and not "mish-mash games" which have creative roles. I have probably 100 or so vanilla games played and about 10 mish-mash games played.
I remember the first time a bunch of us played a game on mafiascum and we got into a flame war with the forum just because the style of the game is so different between forums. I am fairly elitist and think my own style is very good, but I'm ok with taking a backseat and learning the ropes on a new forum.
I will post some reads soon.
I like your style of flexing your over 9000 games played. With that many games your reads must be super awesome as well! + Show Spoiler +On July 22 2011 10:59 DragonReborn422 wrote: Jacinto and VisceraEyes look kind of scummy. Not sure on how much you guys have played though.

You guys look helpful but you're really not. Posts look a little forced. Jacinto looks a little better than Viscera.
I like Ace's posts. Some deep reasoning there. I guess your scumdar is just that good from all those games you played........ + Show Spoiler +On July 22 2011 11:23 DragonReborn422 wrote:Show nested quote +On July 22 2011 11:11 VisceraEyes wrote:On July 22 2011 10:59 DragonReborn422 wrote: Jacinto and VisceraEyes look kind of scummy.

I like Ace's posts.  All right Dragon, then we dispense with the pleasantries. I'm trying to create a pro-town environment. Tell me how that's scummy if you please. Clearly you agree with lynching randomly as Ace does, and his non-answer to my question apparently doesn't bother you because you're in perfect agreement about who you'd lynch given the reins. So let me pose this question to you, because I KNOW Ace has an answer for me. What benefit does town get from lynching a random person? I'm not necessarily in favor of a random lynch. However, a random lynch has a solid success rate. Given that this is a game with a fair amount of beginners, it can be very easy for the mafia to direct the kills in this game. Again, a lot of this depends on how much you have played...but it looks like you have some experience. I think your posts look a little forced and look helpful to the casual eye but really isn't helpful. Objecting to a random lynch by saying we have a higher chance of finding a mafia sounds really nice in theory.... but honestly...i doubt the town has a higher than 25% of finding a mafia on day 1. Or not..... I guess your scumdar is pretty terrible then. Put that penis down, your not the best player in the world and acting like it is just making you look like a fool. Your pride and indecisiveness is just going to get you hanged. Than this post which really put me against DR.

##Vote Ace Yeah, I guess I have been kind of lazy. Seeing town jump on a bandwagon like that day 1 was certainly demoralizing. I've also kind of bummed myself out of Arkham Asylum too. But I'll start contributing: If you look back at how the DR bandwagon developed, it all started with this post by Jacinto: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewpost.php?post_id=10420934I thought this was a perfectly reasonable "get the ball rolling" attack on DR. The case was weak, mostly just non-commital play. I figured DR would just brush it off and the case would be dropped, and I thought DR's post was perfectly reasonable: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewpost.php?post_id=10429554Palmar next throws in a few jabs at DR (typical in-your-face Palmar play), but he seems more occupied with RedFF, and even threw out a jab at me as well. VisceraEyes next jumps in: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewpost.php?post_id=10430096This vote almost feels like VE is reacting to the fact that he doesn't like DR for agreeing with/not being against Ace's plan. I'm not convinced that this is particularly scummy in that it feels a little too committal toward a brewing bandwagon. The next thing to crop up which really got the ball rolling was this post: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewpost.php?post_id=10430660Here aprudds throws out an ad-hom attack on DR. This is eerily reminiscent of how he managed to start a bandwagon against Freeloader in mafia XL. (For those that don't know, after role PMs went out, Freeloader asked whether mafia could PM each other despite the "no PMs" rule. aprudds brought this up as a scum slip and had the whole town distracted by it for all of day 1.) In this post aprudds is painting DR as an unlikable guy, sort of needlessly needling him/trolling him into acting scummier. And he continues to do it: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewpost.php?post_id=10430971However, appruds doesn't vote for DR right away. It really feels like aprudds is riling up the town making them dislike DR while not really committing to him. It is only after Palmar also votes for DR that you finally cast your vote. To me that seems really scummy and manipulative, just like he played in mafia XL. ##vote: aprudds
##Vote aprudds
What happened to me thinking VE is scum you say? I think hes just a misguided townie who needs to reread why he thinks Ace is scum and I don't actually think hes scum anymore when I don't actually have a better scum read on him than RedFF, Palmer, and aprudds.

Trotske, what is your suspicion about redFF? And why Palmar?

Trotske, what is your opinion on Ace?

Please show me where I have acted as Scum and not just asked for clarifications on certain things due to the fact that this is my first game of mafia, EVER. This whole game I have tried to reason out some of the positions other people have held using logic and the Question "does this help the town?"
From what I understand your main reason to think that I am scum has to do with me lurking, which is not the case at all of what I was doing. What I have been doing this whole thread has been asking questions when I don't understand something or only talking when I have something useful to contribute aka not just posting to post.
If you think I am wrong anywhere in this post point it out and I will explain why I am not wrong or apologize for it.
##vote DragonReborn422 ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/lpwlJ.gif) Two posts later he votes for DR.
Is one reason I am getting a scummy feel from redFF another is that Most of his few posts havn't really been helpful in anyway or are just one liners without backing anything up.
Palmer Is more of a he hasnt been around much on D2 TBH I don't have much of a case on him he just feels scummy to me so I thought I would get some pressure on him.
|
My opinion of Ace is he is playing pretty dumb for town or scum so I think there are better people to lynch.
|
You don't get a scummy feel from me or Ace or any of the other people who haven't been around on day 2? Why Palmar in particular?
|
Palmer is my 3rd pick I havn't really, made much of a case against him, as to why not Ace or you When ace has posted and its not to bitch and moan he stated his reasons for what he was doing which seems townie to me and you while you havn't posted much but when you do post you atleast give reasons to your votes and such even if they arent very good ones TBH your tied with VE for being kinda suspsious but not really doign anythign I could act on.
|
Aprudds do you have a case on ace? I saw you posting earlier how you were trying to get him to post but besides his inactivity which I agree is scummy do you have a case?
|
Day 2 vote count
Ace (4) VisceraEyes
Sevryn aprudds Fortress Fortune Curu
Pyo (1) Palmar
trotske (1) redFF
aprudds (3) Pyo Servyn Trotske
With 10 alive it takes 6 to lynch! Ace is leading the vote with 4 votes but does not yet have a majority! Approximately 5 hours remain in the day and 1 person has yet to vote.
|
shouldn't it be five hours?
|
and isn't Ace the only one not to vote?
Am I missing something?
|
I want to ask the people who aren't voting for aprudds to look at the cases for the other people and then compare it to the case for aprudds if they really think there are any other cases stronger than his. If you think that is true please post why you think that so other people can see your thinking.
|
Yeah, I forgot to change it.
|
I think the best course today is no lynch because of inactivity and Mafia can inevitably sway any lynch their way right now with no majority yet and only a few hours before deadline. I apologize again guys, I'm as much to blame as much as anyone.
Let's make sure we have a much more productive next day.
|
Oh and ##Unvote
Unless we can get a consensus in these 5 hours.

Oh right well

I'd like to pursue Ace tomorrow if he still doesn't show up but I don't want to let Mafia get him lynched while we're all inactive.

It takes 6 votes to lynch, so even if you didn't change your vote, he still wouldn't get lynched.
