Balla24 is probably town. I like the way he came into the thread fearless like a tiger pushing a clear agenda.

Storrzerg and Admiral Thrawn are scummy the way they entered the thread.

Well Storr kinda just promised he would contribute a lot - kind of a pointless post to make. You don't announce "I'm about to make a post contribution" every time you post.

Regarding Grand Admiral Thrawn, saying "X plz be town" just strikes me as something mafia more likely say than town, but I could be wrong on this maybe it's just a null-tell. His next post is just asking people to make alignment indicative posts though - similar to my gripe with Storr.

What's your take on the Thrawn part then?

I think the faster we establish candidates for mayor, the less likely we get scum interference. If you are going to run, do it now and quickly. In my experience, mafia usually talk about the mayor race, an if they don't get into it they just give up. I want to give everyone time to get in here, but I think we can cheat the odds if we conglomerate the race now.

As of right now:
Bum
VE
balla
templar

correct me if im wrong

Hey VE, why do you want mayorship when you are horrible at it?

oh right you were 3p.
Thats a technicality.
3p = not scum aligned

Vote for Oats!

Im willing to concede my post early about VE was likely wrong given my personal interactions with him via past games which shouldn't be indicative of his ability at this point. I know that my own experiences (and lack of reading games i dont play in) dont neccesarily indicate his skill level. I personally would still prefer myself as mayor but the reasons i used to discredit him aren't fully accurate.

Do I have no votes because people don't think I'm town or just because they don't trust me as mayor?

Idk about them, but for me personally:

I liked your post at first and was like "oh shit maybe QP is town, especially his latest post I liked a lot - this BH guy is my top town for pointing this out before anyone else"

Then I thought "well wouldn't it be super pro if a mafia made the first post that caused everyone to realize QP is town to get town cred"

Then I decided I wasn't actually sold on QP yet as town or mafia and that he still leaned scummy - and even if he's town it could be either scenario so I will null-read for now but you haven't really done anything besides that QP read.

don't bother with giving me towncred for defending QP. just realize that QP is an "easy" lynch, and not because he's scummy, but because his thought process, which seems internally consistent to me, is foreign to other players. He's the kind of guy who can get lynched D1, flip town, and we'll go into D2 basically going "well, that happened" because that's what happens to players like QP. just don't lynch him today, see how it goes. If he's still unreadable in a day, we have more lynches. I look at QP and I see a wagon that is suspiciously easy, if that makes sense.

^^ this not exactly.

I should elaborate. I don't mind his being lynched but I am not particularly for it either, he is a null read.

I most certainly want a vet mayor though.

People seem to be playing like there is a zodiac list. If you are going to throw the word vet around, you should probably look into that.

I like what BC has been reading from QP, but GGtemplar has been a lot worse. I can't think of a reason to ask people their role. I can understand why people say balla is town, but he looks awful in my PM land. And can anyone explain mocsta faking to be other people in IRC? Why would you ever do that. That's by far the scummiest thing someone has done this game. I would lynch him.

People should vote. As long as BC remains active, I can read him. People don't realize that recognizable names usually have a tough time playing the long term as mafia. The scrutiny is heavy. I'm ok with him as mayor. I'm still here though :D

wrong, i like his play if you take myself out of his tunneling.
Overall i still expect more from a mayor candidate in regards to who they are lynching.

in the last game i played with you VE you ran and won, and lynched a bad lynch (i know you happened to be 3p, and you had your own objective) but my point stands, i want accountability, and i want something i can feel comfortable with.

atm, ggtemplar feels the best. though it will be harder to keep pushing him if he continues to tunnel i admit

On January 27 2014 13:59 Oatsmaster wrote:
so storrzerg pmed me and said a lotta interesting stuff.
Mainly that he thinks BC is not 'worthy' to be mayor and ggtemp is. And that BC is scum for choosing generic inactive scum candidates. Care to comment?

OR BECAUSE BOTH YOU AND BC ARE SCUM!!?!?!?!

I came in with bleh contributions that I backed up to the best of my ability. My vanishing act, which I do not agree with, was due to previous commitments but I try to remain as active as possible. I asked you to inquire about my scum reads yet I have yet to see you ask about them. Also you sounded like you ended your pressure here:


This sounded like the end of a conversation to me.

As for your lynches I don't understand how you're not looking towards Willie or tehpoofter in place of any of the three names you provided because they have given near nothing to this thread. At least in my situation I am trying to actively be apart of the game whether you like my reads or not.

YOU KNOW WHAT?

## Unvote

##Vote: Alakaslam

You were right, GGTeMpLaR! We need a friggin confirmed townie. If I'm not conftown to you you are closed minded. I am not much benefitted by protection but I am definitely town! I am getting so frustrated not knowing who is scum!

I would lynch the player with the fewest posts, weighed against their contribution in those posts!

On January 26 2014 17:41 Blazinghand wrote:
btw if people want to vote me for mayor that's a-ok by me but ideally i think i'm just gonna figure out someone who's town and better at looking/being useful than I am and vote for them. things I would do as mayor:

A) threaten people with the hammer all the time, because I love abusing power (just ask marv!)
B) use my D1 lynch choice to slap someone in the face with my e-peen. that someone is going to be whoever is posting the least content. Normally this would be me, but since i'm not gonna lynch myself, it's going to be someone else. Right now it's skanjab. note that content =/= number of words. who I lynch will be determined entirely by me for reasons that may seem arbitrary. note, however, that they are not arbitrary simply because I do not share them with you peos.
C) anyone who wants to PM me can.
D) i can't take back the words i never said

Original Message From Blazinghand:
oh yeah. that's totes suspicious. so slam claimed (<veteran>) to me in pms just now, and i'm wondering if perhaps he fell for ggtemp's fishing earlier and ggtemp is trying to get him removed via lynch? the thing is, if that were the case slam would have said so... I think.

QuantumPope is probably not scum. He made a worthless fluffly list post, but he provided a little bit of follow-up, and if he is scum, this following reasoning for his post is probably the most chutzpah i've ever seen in a human being:

This is consistent with him posting the post he posted earlier. If he's scum faking this mindset, I will stand corrected, but I don't really see a scum player getting pressure for a list post writing that long posts are bad and then attacking his attacker in this fashion. QP as scum could have easily changed course (especially this early in the day) in response to town pressure. this kind of stubbornness would be sub-optimal for scum.

Hm, well I'd say right now I'm not a huge grack fan. he has been opting out of the general discourse of "who should we lynch" and "who should we elect to be mayor" with his farcical mayoral campaign-- it's obvious he's not going to win, and not putting any effort into trying to win. That being said, it's just trolly enough to dismiss as "trolling" without him showing up on people's radars. Barring some extreme lurker still lurking at the end of D1, I'd say Grack is my most solid lynch choice today. He also sent me a PM asking who we should shoot tonight, which I assume was trolling as well. Regardless: he's opting out. probably scum.

cause let's be real here there's only one reason to vote for me and one to vote against me

1. vote for me cause i'm freakin awesome and you want more bh in th egame. bh catches scum. bh is terrific. yay
1. you personally don't like bh

but i gotta give all kinds of fake reasons and shit cause that's what people expect. you see, people won't just vote me cause i'm awesome though maybe they should, i have to play the role of someone that people would vote for. this means making bold claims about what to do with my vote, and who i will lynch today. this means making the right kinds of noises so that people have the feeling that they're doing the right thing when they vote for me.

I hosted ET and at least skimmed every post in it, but i don't remember what happened other than that scum won.
