I just finished reading through the thread. I would first like to echo TKHawkins first post about lurking and availability when posting. I've been checking the thread nightly to see if the game had started, and tonight it did. I would not be surprised if the majority of people who haven't posted yet are unaware that the game has started. Now a little bit about myself... This is my first mafia game, and I'm looking forward to it. I really like gumshoe's idea with the report. I'm sure it's already common place, but I recommend everyone make their own private version of it. It's not hard, and it makes it a lot easier to keep track of everyone. I don't have much to contribute yet when it comes to suspicions. It's still too early. | ||

Something I'm really concerned about right now is that there seems to be a few players who have posted since the game started, but only in the most fluffy of ways. Specifically, jaj22, DimmuKlok, trackd00r, MannerKiss, and to a lesser extent, Steveling and TKHawkins. I understand if they didn't have the time to do more than just check in at the start of the game, but still, for so many people to just put out one or two fairly useless posts is overall not a good pro-town atmosphere. We HAVE to find some way to get people involved and posting. One player that concerns me right now is MannerKiss. First he gets called out to provide some decent content by DoYouHas, then he posts a single sentence acknowledging DoYouHas's post, but doesn't post any content. I'm getting slightly scummy vibes from his play right now. It's worth looking into as we go forward. Alright, lets take a look. MannerKiss: I think it's unanimous that we would like to hear more from him. His first post was a simple one line introduction, and his second was his one line reply to DoYouHas, which was almost humorous in how suspicious it sounded. Jaj22: He was the one that initially started the conversation about lynching lurkers. I don't agree with his stance. I would rather not have a lynch than lynch a lurker on the first day. I'm not sure if his posts are much to be suspicious over, but worth keeping an eye on. Me: I don't see how someone could read my post and think it didn't have a pro-town atmosphere, but that's your opinion. Trackd00r: I found his first post to be useful and agreed with some of what he said. He never contributed again after that, but it's still pretty early. I don't see the anti-town atmosphere in his post. | ||

I'm must suspicious of MannerKiss right now, like most of you. I'm surprised he threw out that one line response to DoYouHas and then never came back to defend himself. Another suspicion of mine is gumshoe. He's made a lot of posts so far, and most of them being him defending himself for making the poll in the beginning. From a scum perspective, this seems like a good idea. Opening with a useless poll gets your name out there while trying to make it seem like it had a purpose. From then you're able to clutter the thread with discussion over the useless poll, all the while falling back on being a new player as an excuse and some vague reasoning behind it(which might I add has changed several times). Even if gumshoe is not scum, I can't see this as pro-town behavior. | ||

So, my view on the whole thing is that we should push for a no lynch day 1. The reasoning: We are close to the night, very close actually and we have zero solid cases on anyone. Yes mannerkiss's weird 1 liner is scummy, also both eche and sloosh became defensive too fast and yes there are some lurkers as well. Nothing we can make a strong case on. But chanses are that we are probably gonna misslynch day1 with the current situation. So the way I see it, we either push for a lurker lynch or a no lynch. And with a no lynch we promote more discussion without losing an unlucky towny, more discussion always benefits the town. What do you guys think? No reason for a no lynch yet big hoss, we've got plenty of time. Ok brahs, now for some case building.... Here's a little fliter you all should check out. DimmuKlok Only three posts so let's investigate. Post #1 + Show Spoiler + On February 17 2012 15:26 DimmuKlok wrote: Hello everyone, I just finished reading through the thread.

That's as scummy as making a list of lurkers but not actually doing the work to update it..... Post #2 + Show Spoiler + On February 17 2012 18:09 DimmuKlok wrote: Alright, lets take a look.

As someone posted above, giving the mafia a free kill and leaving in someone who is adding nothing to the town and only creating more confusion is counter productive.... - Denies how someone could think his all fluff no substance post would be scummy at all..... - Follows up with another fluff analysis of Track, saying nothing, making no stance, providing nothing. Post #3 - Immediately retracts his old lynching policy. Even saying "After reading everyone's response I'm convinced we should be looking for someone to lynch, but I do feel we should try to find a good reason to lynch someone before we target lurkers." - Announces that he is still suspicious of MannerKiss, in light of all the recent developments..... (that was sarcasm, of course you would still be suspicious.... he still hasn't posted). - Jumps on the latest flavor of the thread, Gumshoe, and makes a vague, semi accusatory statement. That, ladies and gentleman is what you call a lurker.... a real scummy looking lurker..... Sorry about the inactivity, everyone. I'm not home right now, and I won't be until Monday. When Monday comes around you can expect me to post much more often. Okay, now with the case against me. About my first post: I was not telling people to make a list of lurkers. That was never my intention. When I first saw gumshoes report on everyone I thought he was just giving his first impression of everyone and get more information out there. I was saying that everyone can make their own personal version of this in order to help keep track of everyone. It's what I'm doing and it can only benefit you. Second post: Like I mentioned in my first post, this is my first game. I was under the impression that it was at the towns benefit to not lynch someone on the first day, rather than risk lynching a innocent person. After reading everyone's response I realized that my logic was flawed and I changed it, pretty simple. Third post: I don't have much to comment about the sarcasm. I'm not actually sure what you meant by that, but | ||

I'm not actually sure what you meant by that, but nothing in that post was sarcasm. I'm was not bandwagoning when it came to gumshoe. He was one of my highest suspicions at the time of the post, and remains the highest on my list. For this reason I'm giving him my vote. If there is anything I can do for you guys to help prove my innocence then feel free to post it. ##vote: gumshoe | ||

Most of them are contributing to the topic at the time and seem to be pro-town. Hawkin and Manner I consider to be in a very similar boat. Both of them don't seem to be putting up much effort to contribute. As I've stated in the past, I'm not very comfortable lynching someone over inactivity in the early game, but I agree there needs to be some consequences. Inactivity certainly not to the towns advantage. I would love to see them contribute more of their thoughts. | ||

It's1 in the morning here, so I'm going to leave it at that for now and get some sleep. Today(Saturday) is going to be very similar to yesterday when it comes to posting pattern for me. I understand that my availability is hurting the town, and I apologize, but I'll be contributing as much as possible. | ||
