If your filter would be more than enough then why even mention anything about inactivity?

I sense the fact that you aren't reading my posts 100%. You've already gotten off to a rocky start with me due to your baseless accusation. Make sure it doesn't happen again.

Well, we look at people's entry posts and prod at them if we find them unsatisfactory. Kinda like this post really.

Asking about the same thing because new information was made available that your activity would be justifiably alright so there was no need to even post that your activity would be dwindling when you say that it won't be.

I just want to let you all know that I have some English work to do in the next two days so don't expect me to be super-active....

....If you are town and you are lurking, expect to be under the gun during the game and expect me to not be very nice to you post-game. I will be weighing activity a lot heavier in my voting decision this game than I have in the past. You all are warned. If you are going to take a sieste the entire time and not participate, I am going to be on you until you do so.

That is all.


I see some dissonance between your first point and your second. Why would you be so inclined towards policy on low activity players when you have just acknowledged that people can be town and not be active?

Perhaps as you say you only require town to be active and you are, in fact, scum?



Indeed that's a starting post leaning on the scummy side.

1) Why mention these time restraints right after receiving the role PM rather than... before the game started maybe?

2) Focusing on policy/lurker lynching (the easiest target for Mafia).

3) Overall a pretty careful and and meek post with no content, yet managing to look reasonable on the first glance (somewhat)

Looks like this game is starting well.

Do you feel it's more likely for scum to post excuses at the start of the game rather than town?

Making the point that although I will not have as much time as usual, I will do everything in my power to contribute to the discussion. Which is what every townie should do. Do you have a problem with everyone being active?

I appreciate a refresher in the reasoning behind policy lynching lurkers corazon, but that doesn't really add anything valuable to the conversation that anyone here wouldn't know already does it?

For the record, I always prefer lynching scum to lynching coin-flips, thus I will be hard on people who get in my way when I try to do so.

Plutarch = marv?

Nice, I thought this game was full of new players (to me)

That's not actually a bad idea.

FOR FILTER: GAME STARTED HERE


May I ask... Where did you disappear to?

This is the kind of non-contribution that Mafia love to make.

Especially combined with fading to the background right after that.

I am a civilian. To my great dismay, my blood is not purple.

Plutarch, what distinguishes "scum" from "coin-flip"?

Looking at the OP, it seems like the odds of rolling purple were against you.

I'd assume he means that lurker = coin-flip.

Did you ask merely out of curiosity or for what reason?

@Grackaroni and Holyflare

You were red last game. You were victorious.

Can we expect any changes in your play-style now that you are presumably town?

Grack in particular, you trolled through the initial stages last time, are you gonna be more helpful this game?

It was a pretty lackluster statement to make. I want to know if there was any meat to the meaning behind "coin-flip", because its an empty phrase, much like things like WIFOM and scumslip. Empty buzzwords that don't actually find scum but look like you want to find them.

Hmm. Well, it's good to demand explanations for hollow statements. That, however, was quite clear in my opinion: it's better to lynch scummy players rather than lurky players (higher chance of success).
