Also if they have a history of being lynched day1 1 a case for lynching them day 1 must have been made and trusted multiple times is the past so the case is more likely based on their playstyle rather than them pushing an agenda, or making scumslips. the reason for lynching the player may be poor but cant you see how easily a player that isn't being critical could see somebody like sinani YM or even kenpachi as a good lynch target? i dont think wbg is saying we should lynch YM but is simply tring to explain how someone might think we should. | ||

He is saying he is an easy mislynch to pull off and thus should not be targeted. ninja could you answer my post? | ||

easy lynches are overly scummy and useless. They're good targets for our vigilantes. Thats the reason why sinanis veteranclaim is even more antitown than his scummy/useless/spammy behaviour. If we shoot him now and he's vet, our vig has to claim the shot to confirm him as vet; consequence is that shooting him means risking a valuable shot. I know it's a little bit "wifom", but his claim does only make sense if he's scum. He's not worth a lynch and not worth risking a shot. I don't agree with decons theory (i don't remember exactly if it really was decon) that he's a frustrated townie. He's one of the worst players in the TLmafia-forum because as town and as scum he barely plays the game. Instead he's trolling or being afk all the time. If he really wanted to change his play this game, he has no reason to be pissed if we don't believe him until he prove us wrong. Sinani confirms once again my prejudices towards him; and this time he's not only useless like always, no. This time he's even more antitown than usually. As I pointed out, his claim is extremely selfish and makes perfect sense if he's scum. | ||

I think he's a perfect target for one of our rolecops. They can verify if he really is vet and maybe breadcrumb it anywhere? I know the last part of that plan is in need of improvement... | ||

I would like to see BC post some more before the voting deadline. I would like to see more from Coag than "sup guys" At least claim medic Coag. xttfc gives me a scum vibe. LSB needs to run for mayor and give us a plan. That way we know it will never work the way he laid it out. I don't know why you guys are still fighting about a DT plan. It's a moot point. It won't ever work anyways. | ||

Rereading this thread I noticed a serious problem with this game. The way things are going right now, it seems like it is okay for the new players in this game to simply sheep the opinion of the "veterans" and provide no real content themselves. We have gone on about how this player is good and that player is bad and not to be listened too. I fear this is making all new people scared of posting their opinions on other players, out of fear to be judged on it. As a result the mafia amongst the new players has a safe place to hide and no real incentive to voice their opinions and thus get caught on scum behaviiour paterns. So listen: If you are town, no matter how bad you think you suck at this game right now, you need to step up and voice your opinion on other players, not only those who are running for mayor. By producing content you help everyone get a good grasp at your alignment and force mafia to post in similar fashion, by reducing the pool in which to hide. Do not fear being lynched or being wrong. No matter what people might tell you, the "veterans" cannot win this game by themselves and it's very hard to pin scum out of a pool of 50 players behaving in similar fashion. Put in the effort and post. The town's fate depends on you much more than anyone else. | ||
