We shouldn't allow players to pretend to contribute by speculating on a role that has little impact on the events of the first few days. If wherebugsgo wants to coordinate with town to somehow mutually achieve our goals, then that's fine, but otherwise it is best to ignore him. If you want to discuss policy, then why are you just giving a bunch of questions? You should share what your actual opinion is. A no-lynch should be out of the question as this person suggests: We don't accomplish anything and obtain no information if everyone gets a free pass on day one. Lurkers should be pressured to post, but the day one lynch shouldn't only be focused on people without posts since it is also tough to generate information. This is a sketchy post. What does "interesting" mean? Is it scummy? You should draw conclusions rather than tell us that you look forward to reading peoples posts. Big Finger Of Suspicion at Oberyn for a long, meticulous, and especially uninsightful post (spoilered above). Didn't even fully read one of the things he's quoted as the questions he brings forward have already been answered. Other people have pointed suspicion toward him and no response yet. Another 1 post wonder early on was nicolas. But he did bring forth the question of who all is a vet and who isn't, which I think is a good question. This is my second game of mafia personally. I went a little too hog wild in the first and got myself lynched relatively early.

It should generate discussion not baseless band wagons Also on the issue of third party. Isn't little finger sort of irrelevant to town? I mean unless he's going to act like a total dick and try to get himself lynched he really shouldn't be a problem for us, its scum who have to worry about shooting him. Townies look for scum, scum look for third party, lets not do scum's job for them by finding the guy whose potentially the biggest threat to their operation. It's better if little finger stays hidden looks like a helpful blue and soaks up a hit. I'm not saying we shouldn't talk about him, I just don't want to give him away(which as far as we know makes no difference to him) until scum finds him on their own, because just by being there as he is he disrupts and confuses scum. For the record though I think he has to ensure that catelyn survives no matter what(or maybe sansa) and ned dies. Or maybe he just has to identify everyone. It'll be near impossible to confirm our theories until later when we've seen someone act peculiar(like a third party would) even then though like I said before it might still be a good idea to keep Baelish under wraps. Next up, Xatalos, why did you vote for me of all people? Is it because I'm a newer player eg an easy target to pressure/bandwagon? gumshoe wastes a lot of thread space by not having the best reading comprehension. Earlier on he didn't even seem understand Peytr's role. It seems unusual to me that someone who has played a few games of mafia wouldn't even read the OP and the D1 post thoroughly. Perhaps an honest mistake that happened because of over posting, when he should have been reading instead. | ||

You don't have to destroy the thread to achieve your win condition. Carefully constructed? Since when is that only a mafia trait? Do you disagree with any of the points that I made? You certainly are in no position to call my posts bland based on your contributions. As poor as this suggestion is, I feel that it is unlikely that a scum aligned gumshoe would have the confidence to actively push a scum agenda and publicly blue fish in the thread. I hardly see how you've managed to generate pressure on greymist with your vote. Do you intend to explain what these reasons are or is it a secret? It's getting late here so I'll post my lynch preferences in the morning. Hopefully there will be more content to analyze by then because right now it seems like the vast majority of players have yet to post much. You never made any points. Not with your first post and not with this post. I feel that it is unlikely that a scum aligned gumshoe would have the confidence to actively push a scum agenda and publicly blue fish in the thread. What does this even mean? | ||

One of the first things he said in his first post is this: Let me tell everybody my opinion, so you can get a good read on me! And something about it just doesn't sit well with me. It's as if he's defending himself before he's even said anything yet. He goes on to attack Acrofales who is nothing but pure lynch bait so far in my eyes. In he second post he says this: Gumshoe skips the day post, says we should talk about policy, doesn't discuss policy, asks some questions, and then accuses the person who is easiest to attack, Acrofales. My guess as to why he skipped the day post is that he got a powerful role(blue or scum) and was excited to use it. He is either a lazy townsperson with a powerful role or scum. Overall, I think he seems a little less scummy than Mattchew. I'll point out below, Gumshoe does in fact discuss policy. Oberyn, who I also still have a big Finger of Suspicion at went after gumshoe for the same baseless claim. MrZentor's theory about gumshoe getting a blue role and being "excited to use it" (wtf?) is stupid. On March 22 2012 01:50 gumshoe wrote: Thank you Jackson ( : but keep in mind it is possible(though unlikely considering scums hate for flashy play early on) that Where is scum, we shouldnt just take his word for anything but I agree talking about Baelish is pointless and benefits scum the most. For now we can just ignore Where as if he was just a dumb poster. moving on lets discuss policy(it'll only take a bit and we may as well get it over with early on) do we set a preliminary lynch deadline?(im leaning 8 hours in advance if we do) Do we policy lynch hardcore lurkers?(by hardcore I mean like 3 one liners a cycle, personally for this because lynching lurkers always helps clear the air a bit and they werent helping anyway so nothing really lost) are we going to elect a mayor?( I've never done this before so I dont know how that works) After that he gets into his pointless little tiff with Mattchew. That makes him three for three going after the posters that were the most lynch-bait-y-est early on. | ||

Xatalos how many games of mafia have you played? I'm reading your filter and most of your posts are just wishy-washy paraphrasing of extremely obvious facts with the occasional smiley mixed in. | ||

Xatalos come back, I insist. I don't care if you just paraphrase some more obvious facts with the occasional smiley, I would really like to see you post more, and I would also like you to answer my question of "How many games of mafia have you played?" evantrees why do you think Mattchew is scum? Because you haven't said why yet. While I'm at it, MrZentor, I hope you'll forgive me being on your back when no one else seems suspicious of you... but why are you voting for Mattchew? | ||

Well he is posting lists that aren't true, questions that are answered in the rules of the game, he's insulting people in the thread because they don't agree with him, and spamming other irrelevant stuff in the last few hours of the first day... All those things are at least more scummy to me than what others are doing right now. Seems to be par for the course for him this game though. | ||

On March 25 2012 11:44 Lyter wrote: With regards to wbg, am I right in saying that the only evidence we have as to what his purpose in this game is, is that the character you portray from the book is untrustworthy? If so, I don't even get why people bring up what this guy says as though it might support something they have to say or they feel the need to stand up to his accusations. I'm not posting much because I don't have much of a clue as to wtf is going on at the moment lol, is every mafia game this weird? People just seem to be hurling shit at each other for not a whole of reason. Bed now anyway, cya in the morning Yes, you're right. I can think of a couple more purposes for WBG's character too: -When you want to seem like you're contributing something but you're really not, you can just examine some part of the nonsense he's spewing at the time. -If you're mafia, you can get upset and pitch a fit when he says something like "I'm going to shoot you because I have vigi powers because that makes sense." -When everyone else is either ignoring you or calling you scum, you can talk to him instead of trying to participate constructively. I am voting ##vote evantrees and I am offering ZERO explanation as to why. Does this bother you Risen? | ||

On March 25 2012 13:28 Risen wrote: How the fuck? Lynching evantrees is fucking bonkers. Lynch me, or lynch acro. A lynch not on me or acro furthers scum agenda. If you don't want to vote acro, vote me. That way you guys know I'm telling the truth. It's really that simple. Spoilers is all caps for easy reading. + Show Spoiler + TWO OPTIONS. IM MAKING THIS STUPID EASY FOR TOWNIES AND GIVES YOU GUARANTEED MINIMUM 10-3 TOWN-MAFIA END OF DAY 3 WORST CASE SCENARIO. OR BEST CASE ACRO IS LYNCHED TONIGHT AND IT'S 13-3 TOWN-MAFIA GOING INTO NIGHT 2 See, I thought that would bother you. I'm voting evantrees because I said I would until he responded, and he hasn't. I am being consistent. It's a good talent toi have when playing this game. | ||

Next time you role claim detective, don't do it like this: "Hey guys I'm the detective, lynch me!" Do it like this: "Hey guys I'm the detective, don't lynch me!" | ||

On March 25 2012 14:56 Risen wrote: normally I'd agree, but we have a third party troll. Things had to be done to show that no one should listen to wbg No. You're wrong. That is the right way to role claim detective. WBG has shit to do with piss. You bring him up more than any other player when we all agreed pretty much from the beginning he is just a troll this game and should not influence our decision making in any way until he has proven beyond doubt he is pro-town. | ||

On March 26 2012 05:33 Risen wrote: The only reason this all started is b/c I was convinced wbg was shooting me. I didn't receive a PM saying someone protected me, which means he was bullshitting the entire time. He pretty much flushed out the town dt b/c I had to get out the word that my check on acro was scum (I'm assuming he has a list of what everyone is, or he caught onto the fact that I used the word detect a million times in my day 1 posts) It's my fault I fell for his night-shot claim, and I feel bad for it. I'm sorry, but once the cat was out of the bag I felt the only way to give town a fighting chance was to force the 10-3 following my lynch (again, I still think it's more logical when you think about it to lynch acro, but apparently I'm wrong) Dude... -_- Whatever I'm going to work be back in 6 hours. | ||

I was not hit last night, so mostly likely roleblocked SLJ. I really don't see SLJ being jailed, vigged and hit by scum. Which would mean there could be two roleblockers, someone could have jailed bugs or bugs could be lieing. @Sinensis respond or post at all? Hey evantrees we missed you nice of you to join us here on page 47. What took so long for you to respond to me voting for you ever since Day 1? You had time for some random 1 liners but no time for me? That hurts my feelings. Who are you voting for today? I see you voted Mattchew yesterday, here's the explanation you offered: Since I would not mind seeing him lynched or shot for now That isn't a very solid case you made, but it was day 1 and Mattchew was being a little disagreeable at the time. Not really that suspicious, though it does leave some reasoning to be desired. | ||

On March 30 2012 03:29 Xatalos wrote: Okay... It looks like this day was a real mess (as well as day 2 to a lesser degree) so I hope day 4 will be the day where Mafia are finally figured out. I'm not still 100% confident on my own Mafia reads, but I'll post all my opinions and findings now, in case I get killed at the deadline. I'll go through every player with my opinions/notes as well as a verdict: good/medium/bad lynch. Good lynch: I'll vote for one of these if possible. Medium lynch: I'll vote for one of these if necessary not to get a bad lynch lynched. Bad lynch: I won't vote for one of these - I can't see them being Mafia. gumshoe: He's been my top lynch for a long time, but I don't think he's the best lynch anymore at this point. First of all, he has been inactive for a long time, so he'll probably get modkilled soon anyway. Second, as some others said before, his careless and bold posts don't fit the Mafia mindset very well. Very possibly he's just a noob who spoke what came to his mind, no matter how possibly suspicious. Verdict: Medium lynch. Zealos: Apparently some think he's suspicious, but I don't really see it. He's been very active, contributing and created a pro-town atmosphere. Unless I see something damning from him, I'm not willing to vote for him. Verdict: Bad lynch. Mattchew: I really didn't like his confusing and disruptive way to play on day 1, but in the end, he's been generating a lot of useful discussion. Also, I can't believe Mafia (Acrofales) would have focused so hard on getting a fellow Mafia player lynched... I'm not willing to vote for him anymore. Verdict: Bad lynch. risk.nuke: I was a bit suspicious of him after his first posts, but his later posts have been a lot more contributive. I'm not sold on either his innocence or guiltiness yet. Verdict: Medium lynch. Jitsu: OriginalName was a lurker, but Jitsu has contributed quite a bit after he took over. I haven't seen anything suspicious about him yet... Verdict: Bad lynch. Alderan: He hasn't contributed very much, but isn't really a lurker either. Not a very bad lynch choice, but not among the best. Verdict: Medium lynch. chaoser: Clearly has experience in playing, but hasn't contributed much, disregarding some of the more trivial discussion. A semi-lurker who doesn't look very pro-town, but not anti-town either. Verdict: Medium lynch. Lyter: Has contributed little and posted seldom. Something feels off, but not a top lynch yet. Verdict: Medium lynch. GreYMisT: Also an experienced player, but hasn't contributed much or often. Was the runner-up in day 1 lynch, but wasn't voted by even a single Mafia player. Both him and chaoser haven't done much to help town, but GreYMisT feels more suspicious to me. Verdict: Good lynch. sinensis: Doesn't look very interested in adding to the discussion, voting without much explanation or contribution. Apparently suspects evantrees mainly, but doesn't push his lynch other than voting for him. Verdict: Medium lynch. evantrees: A hardcore lurker without real contribution. Certainly feels a bit suspicious, but could also be a disinterested townie. Verdict: Medium lynch. So, I'll probably be voting for GreYMisT tomorrow if I can. Once evantress is dead I am lynching this guy, Xatalos. I doubt if anyone in thread can change my mind with any amount of posting. His early game wishy-washy-smiley style of posting made me suspicious, now this giant list of useless has me more suspicious because his "good-lynches" boil down to: - "Greymist hasn't contributed much or often and was the runner-up in day 1 lynch." Day 1 the town has ZERO information about anything, so basing a lynch off that info when we're this far into the game is stupid. Also, greymist has contributed more than the guy I am voting for if that's the criteria votes are being based on. Last, he wasn't even the runner-up day 1 as Xatalos said, so I'm not sure why he said it. - He also says gumshoe has been his top lynch for a long time, but has other priorities right now instead (read: greymist). If your priorities are preserving town numbers and eliminating mafia, you should probably follow my example. | ||
