![[image loading]](http://www.reddwarf.co.uk/downloads/wallpapers/images/1024x768RedDwarf.jpg) "Hello Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Captain Artanis speaking. I'd like to welcome you all aboard the Jupiter Mining vessel Red Dwarf. We will be leaving Earth momentarily to begin our voyage to mine asteroids for valuable resources. As you all know, it's a dangerous task, but you've all had good training, so I'm sure we'll be fine." These were the words with which Artanis set sail to the asteroid belt near Jupiter. The trip was planned to take about 18 months, and as they left everything went as planned. Mining operations started fairly quickly, until one fateful Saturday evening. Artanis had been summoned to the site operations as one of the machines was malfunctioning. He asked who was responsible for the ordeal, and was pointed to Nova_Terra. Artanis raised his voice and expressed his disdain for the situation, and Nova_Terra promised he'd try to get it fixed immediately. However, as soon as Artanis turned away, Nova_Terra dug his wrench into Artanis' neck. Having spotted this revolt, GMarshal immediately grabbed a nearby gun to shoot Terra, and shot Terra in the stomach. Nova_Terra let out one final laugh as he died and someone from the shadows pressed a button that made the malfunctioning machine fall on top of GMarshal's head. After the ordeal, the entire crew was summoned to the headquarters by Holly, the ship's AI. When inquiring about what happened, the crew was told the following: After finally understanding the message, Holly informed them that the killer was still alive. The remaining crew of 12 would have to find the murderers in their midst. To decide how to find the murderers, they suggested to lynch one person each day until the murdering would stop for good. Captain Artanis has been murdered! Nova_Terra has been killed! GMarshal has been crushed by a malfunctioning mining device! You have until Saturday, April 28th at 21:59 GMT (+00:00) to vote. Remember, you may not abstain, but you MAY vote for a no lynch by typing ##vote: No Lynch. If your vote is not in the correct formatting, it will not be counted. If you plan on observing, please PM either me or Nova_Terra for the QT link. Remember that Coaches are available and should be used as they're an incredibly good resource. Adam4167, prplhz, and Mementoss are more than willing to help with any questions you may have so don't hesitate to PM them! | ||

Learned alot from my last game! As of now we have about 56 hours untill lynch time, so we are in no hurry. However it's always nice to get the discussion going as fast as possible. As for lynching, I think we shouldn't be to fast to judge based upon what they say in the very beginning, especially since this is a noob game. Alot of people are inexperienced and WILL ''scumslip'' even tho they are townies. I'm not saying that you shouldn't analyse what people are saying, but rather that you shouldn't tunnel someone just because you thought something they said in one of their very first posts was suspicous. Step up and post now : ) | ||

A great day 1 post, we're on a spaceship! Some interesting things going into this game. There is specifically a rule stating that "no lynch" is a valid vote. As this is my first game with this is an option, I thought it was worth stating my stance on this. In the absence of any cases with substance, I see "no lynch" as a potentially good day 1 option as it means we have a chance of avoiding a day 1 town miss-lynch. However, a good case against someone and pressuring lurkers would override this for me. Lurking does not help town, so let's get the discussion going. | ||

This is my first game of maifa, but i have been following other games a bit. I also think that the "no lynch" option could prove useful early in the game to avoid misslynch. The other game i was following misslynched on the first day simply because they didn't have enough information. | ||

I love the theme and i'm very excited to get this show on the road! Like many here this is my first game so i'm looking forward to a good time with you fine lads (and lasses) As Pure-SC2 said, i share his opinion on the "no lynch" vote since this is a game full of newbies like myself, and there isn't all that information up in the air the first day, which we can use to base good lynches on. With that said, Game on and let's get the discussion going!  | ||

A mislynch on the first day is unfortunate and sometimes unavoidable, but by putting effort in and finding someone who is wasting our time by either lurking or actively being scummy be can still achieve progress from a mislynch. Lynching lurkers is as important as lynching mafia if we can't actively find one. Remember as town we have to work as a team, and lurkers dont do much to further town. Regardless of an accurate lynch or a mis-lynch. On D2 we can see how the suspicious parties worked in hindsight and perhaps see if they have manipulated votes from D1 in relationship to N1's activity. So lets get this thread active and treat lurkers as suspicious? Keep your posts concise and answer everyones questions to the point. I'm happy to answer any questions on my opinions if you have any.

The thing that I see about newbie games is that sometimes it is harder for players to get a read on someone else, because they might really not have a clue what their goal is when they post. One of the first examples that I notice immediately already in this thread is that Pure-SC2 posts about the no-lynch availability, but then the following two posts occur On April 26 2012 22:51 The_Zen_Man wrote: Hey guys!

Even though this is my first forum game, I have read up as well as played the in-person variant and these both look suspicious to me, as they're bandwagoning on something that won't (instantly) kill them the first day. However, I can't deduce much from their first real post because it's a newb game, as well as the fact that the accounts have no history to go through to determine behavioral patterns. Plus, would the mafia post back-to-back almost identical posts? Doubtful. Maybe I'm overthinking this. Perhaps waiting for some more people to post will provide more concrete information. | ||

I'd like to briefly note I'm studying in hong kong, so at the deadline it'll be ~6 AM for me. Looks like the only thing that's been brought up is the "no lynch" votr, and it looks like some people have stated they're okay with a no-lynch if there aren't any cases. I'd be okay with a no lynch if there really was no one to lynch, but we should really get discussion going so we can get cases to work with. If we get too passive with no lynch votes, we may end up encouraging lurking which would suck. I agree with golden, when this gets rolling, we should treat lurkers as suspicious. | ||
