By now he's realized how scummy he is being by sticking to his same idea, so he looks for a way out. It's a meager way out, but mafia can wriggle when they want to. This is just weak. There are so many possibilities where your plan could have gone wrong that it shouldn't have taken so long to have one of them pointed out to you.

Chaos13, Part 3 was definetly not fluff. This is not like most games on this forum, where 4 votes can lynch in a 20 player game. We need 8 votes on the same person to lynch today, and that changes a lot, for how scum play, and how town play, but mostly it means that we either agree or we don´t lynch at all, forcing everyone to be more aggressive with the voting.

As for your random pressure, I knew it was random pressure. If I knew it was not serious, why would I defend Jackal?

With everyone accusing me of avoiding questions, I think I´d like some old ones of my own answered.

Lucidity, what role did you have in Arkham Asylum? Arkham Staff, basically a normal Goon?
Is there something in your Veteran Metagame that makes those games useless for metagame purposes?

Sadly I have to agree with Dream, and echo what she said. We pretty much haw a very long day 1 with no roles or anything but a very general plan to discuss. I have only played with a few of you, but from the games I have read we will do well if we can maintain a good atmosphere, as we have right now. Because we also don't know how many or what type of roles exist, we need to focus on logic and behavioral analysis, rather than hope for power roles to carry us. I think we should process forward assuming no blues exist.

I prefer policy posts and "plans" to the spam and trolling it takes to get some games started on day 1. Would you rather I didn't post at all? I feel that at least gets everyone on the same page. Otherwise we don't know where anyone stands on the mechanics of the game, and judging from games I have read on here that seems to muck up later days.

I played as a Goon and a Vet in PM games, so a lot of discussion is not in the thread at all. I've played 1 game as Green, 1 as Blue and 1 as Red. I don't think I have any kind of reliable meta on here.

Yeah, I know it applies to the game, but if anyone isn't aware of it already it's because they haven't read the OP.

The bolded is exactly my question.

Eh, I'm not buying the forumite lynch. His initial statements were pretty lame, but he's been acting like an unjustly accused town since then.

I want to shift town conversation back to Greymyst.




Now I wanted to wait until after the nightpost to say this, but jackie beat me to it. This is a crazy scummy post. Its sheepy, and its a poor attempt to blend in with everyone, etc.

His response to the pressure everyone gave him was this:
Not much to say about my post here, as I defended it below. In short I felt this post was a better idea than spam or not posting at all.



Okay, lets look at the appeals he makes here. He doesn't try to defend his scummy post at all; instead he appeals to the emotional ("Would you rather I didn't post at all?") and then basically restates his first sentence. This is NOT how you react to pressure. A true townie would read their post and either say, "That wasn't scummy at all!" Or they'd defend themselves and explain what they meant. Greymyst did neither.

I have to disagree with you here. How am I not defending myself here? I state the reason behind my post before. The phrase "would you rather I didn't post at all" was not an appeal to emotion, but rather an actual statement of the fact that I feel it is better to post than not at all.


Oh, and then the rest of his posts are all about the d1 post and the clues it might contain, which successfully shields him from having to hunt for scum.

I have never played a game with clues, so maybe I am overemphasizing their importance to the game, but GMarshal stated that that might give us an insight into game mechanics and the possible settup, which I felt would be pretty important when we dont know either.

## Vote Greymyst
