@BH if you are implying that we should be relying on anything other than claims made in the thread i feel it is my duty to remind you that you are playing mafia, and that analysis is forbidden.

Demons cmon guys can we avoid a no lynch? You know you cant win while angels live and this is how we kill them .
Help a brotha out

We could all switch to Jackal... at least we are at 5 votes then :D
|
i am prepared, but we should all agree before anyone changes their vote.
|
Why the sudden confidence on switching to Jackal?
Just because of the vote? That's silly.
|
It was a joke... 4 or 5 votes don't matter... And i think Jackal is a bad lynch today..

Why I think Refallen is a shitty lynch: People willing to vote for him: Dirkzor, Bluelightz listed him as a scummy target, Zephirdd, Layabout, Tyrran pushed him as potential scum. No fucking way this list is clean. Was about the only person to not just want to turbo-lynch me in my absence. As I stated, he is playing very similar to his townplay from Election mafia. He made assumptions about night actions in that game as well(and was basically 100% correct on them too). The only difference is he is being more aggressive, which he publicly stated he was going to do before roles were even released. Aggression is generally a townie trait. As far as I can tell, he is one of only 2 people who could potentially be the demon hunter. If we lynch the demon hunter I think it is GG for town.
Why I would like to lynch Dirkzor: Starts off with this post: + Show Spoiler +On January 04 2012 17:46 Dirkzor wrote: Game on!
This setup scares the living shit out of me. So many nuances to keep track of. Anyway...
I agree that Angels appear to be strongest in the beginning with 1/2 KP. But what haven't been mentioned is that Angels can kill the demon for us aswell. If we lynch Angel of Death and Angelic Acolyte we will have to lynch/Demon hunter the Demons. Since I don't know the Demon hunter or how good that person is, he could just aswell kill 3 town people the first 3 nights which of course would not be very favourable for us. It basicly means we would need to do more correct lynches while having a good demon hunter that don't fuck us over with continously town kills. Demons also have the Twist ability which basicly makes one (1) of their members immune to night actions, rendering the demon hunter to be less useful.
What i wanted to point out that even if we get 3 correct Angel lynches (unlikely) the first 3 nights. The demons are equally capable to fuck us over. That is why I think that killing any angel or demon is good. Not one over the other. If we knew which angel or demon, it would be a different matter. Mostly innocent, but the general opinion seemed to be that angels were our primary concern, not demons. Potentially an angel wanting to get our attention elsewhere a bit more.

Yesterday he lied about being sleepy, while I know he had been and still was playing dota 2 and kept playing for at least an hour after making the post (I went to sleep by that point). Such pure meta cases are annoying to push and I thought the case against risk was better in terms of it actually constituting as "playing mafia".

His reasons for not pushing the plan now is actually quite pro-town in my book since it would just hinder other discussion. And he may have different ways of pushing his case then posting the same thing over and over *cough* BH *cough*.
Either way, I have written it before and I'll do so again. I think RoL is a bad lynch. I would like to see him scumhunt soon though.
But just add WIFOM:

Assuming Wiggles was town, and i assume that, it puts more pressure on RoL. That was the last person that Wiggles talked about (and attacking me about).

His case is just not good, its just long so it appears to be good/solid. Long is not always better. Likes the RoL lynch.
Wrong. After RoL claimed VT he could later have claimed channeler without it looking suspicious. As he had already claimed VT he could wait for everyone else to claim. The channeler would be missing and he could then claim channeler and most would believe him because no one else claimed channeler. If someone else claimed channeler before him he could counter-claim and town would lynch RoL (and get channeler), but after that we would lycnh the person who claimed channeler as he was lying. Conveniently ignores that the demons still had the conceal option, and that angels would have had time left after the blue claims to pick a target for the AoD kill in order to support his case. Aka, more bad logic.

Yo HoD why you post this case so late into the day?
Take a look at Refallen first post specifically, and compare to Dirkzor's. How can you use the first post of a player as part of your argument?

Nah, your case sucks.

Why I support a Jackal lynch: First about 50% of his filter is dedicated to calling Palmar scum. Pretty much clears him of being a demon, but says nothing of him not being an angel.

It makes more sense for Palmar to protect a teammate than to try to block a blue. I think Palmar sent Syllo to purgatory. Is anybody corrupted? An interesting assertion to make.

Are you not up to lynching him? What about dirkzor, your previous random vote you never bothered to push or justify? If you've to choose between Tyrran and RoL today, which one will you be voting? I still think Dirkzor is scum. But nobody else wants to agree with me. I thought you may be scum as well until you got sent to Purgatory again and the AoD appeared. You may still be a demon but I'm not leaning that way atm. RoL has made an appearance other than his stupid plan. But it's basically appearing to be a great big OMGUS. I'd like to see what else he has to say about others today. Tyrran I think is just a derpy townie. I haven't played with him before so I'm not sure what to expect from him. Between the 2 I'd lynch RoL first but I think Dirkzor, Bluelights, or HoD are all better options. And I did push and justify my vote on Dirkzor. It wasn't 10,000 words so you ignored it. I think the only reason Bluelights came back was because I put my vote on him. He's scum lynch him.
Overall his filter is not particularly enlightening other than "very likely not a demon". By this stage in the game I would expect a veteran to have done a much better exonerating himself of suspicion if he is town.

Actually i regret the part about cwave. All i wanted was to pressure him to post some more. It worked like a charm but the vote and the way i wrote it was overboard. Well lesson learned.
All the things about RoL and my change of view on him I feel i've justified by logic and reasoning.

Many times analyzing night kills is considered WIFOM, as only the killers can say with certainty why someone died. This is especially true when the kill choices were unexpected.

No shit sherlock, we need demons to lynch angels this game. You know what is common on this list? Nobody here looks Angel to me.
And how can you make an assertion about who is the DH, when the DH shot only obvious targets(maybe a bit less on Palmar, but was an excellent shot nevertheless)
As far as we know, Jackal is the DH.

Your case on Jackal is likely to my own read on him. While I don't see anything that sticks out as scummy, what worry me is that I don't see anything sticking out at all.
I'm going to bed very soon so a conclusion to this qould be fantastic.
Also: Who benefits from a no lynch? Both demon and Angels? or mostly angels?

So you mean that the Angels could've killed Mr wiggles so that it would mean we lynch RoL with that? So, by that logic, RoL was possibly town?

He made the simplest possible assumption. The problem would be if he made a more complicated assumption("...but the Angels may have killed him with that in mind")

Angels. Demons would benefit from Sage, DH or Angel lynch, but a no-lynch leave their voting power smaller while leaving Angels untouched, opening space for the (possible) Sage to find a Demon, the DH to snipe a Demon and the Angels to be Angels.

The odds of Jackal being the demon hunter and not having stabbed dirkzor over cwave or spaackle I would rate at near 0%.
