nonono Sulfurus was busing me. I'm Mafia too guys plz kill me. XD

Alright down to business. Apparently my bait was successful although I wasn't around to catch the slip from Sulfurus. Glad to see that Half the Sky caught it. I'm going to actually work from here on out. Re-reading the thread seriously.

I also lean town on TJHuggins, since he posted that sulfurus was his second on scum list. This was also before any of the voting began, though after sulfurus posted that super scummy post and was tagged for it by Half the sky. Still a good townlean for me.

Also, i get a townvibe from wonnaplay.

Of course, I could be all wrong about this, and mafia decided to sacrifice sulfurus, but dont really think so right now. Regardless, those reamaining that I think the mafia is among is : scott31337, GhandiEAGLE, NydusHerMain. One or two of these three are probably mafia.

@n00b I think generally it's best for people to not give advice to the cop. Firstly, we don't even know if there is a cop. Secondly, if we all say "check X" and then nothing comes from it during the next day, everyone might assume the person is town, when either there isn't a cop, or the cop checked elsewhere. Thirdly, giving advice as to who the cop should check might be indicative that you aren't the cop. That's helpful for the scum, who are probably furiously blue hunting.

Well HtS was already giving advice to the cop. heh

I think it's worthwhile for people to give advice to pretty much any role that can use an action.

The only reason for anyone to talk during the Night Phase is to guide the actions of the Blue Roles. That's it. Otherwise, no one should say anything until a minute before the deadline.

It's plurality lynch Sulfurus, not majority. There's a massive difference between the two, hopefully someone's telling you that in the obs qt.

That's part of the problem....there were none. That is how I tagged him!

Also doesn't giving people only a warning for not voting a bit of a bad precedent to set? Isn't this essentially akin to allowing each player to make one non-vote each game?


This is a newbie game for a reason. People here (well 10/13) are new to TL. It's trying to get used to our site - kiddie pool style. Even in veteran games some moderators (Artanis, myself, etc) will allow warnings for first offences, and others (e.g. Blazinghand) will directly modkill. Again, the rules are NOT universal, so always read the OP.

If there's a DT, check any of the lurkers/nulls - NHM/Scott/SW/WP

Would be interested in hearing opinions from others, on whether this would be the best use of a Cop's ability. A null is always statistically more likely to be Town than not. So if a Cop just goes stumbling into that group, he can expect to get a Town check back.

The good thing about getting a town check on someone in that group is that you won't mislynch them, when otherwise, it is always tempting to lynch a lurker.

But the bad thing about getting a town check on someone in that group is that...even once you know you can trust them, how much help are you really going to get from them? If Nydus were to come back, and we knew he could be trusted, then maybe that would be awesome, having a vet that is known to be Town, for sure. But right now, I don't see how we can bank on Scott/SilentWarrior/WonnaPlay giving us a lot of assistance in reasoning things out, even if they were known to be Town.

Grokken and TJ have both been much more active. I'm more curious about whether those guys are actually allies of mine, than I am about whether Scott is. And each is suspicious, in his own way. They both had their vote on Moosy while the Godfather was getting lynched. So that's not great. And then:

Grokken - Kelsier hated his list post. I didn't, really. But Kelsier could still be right, even though I didn't see anything. What was more suspicious to me was that when I started to turn thread sentiment against Moosy, Grokken quickly flipped his read on Moosy from Green to Red.

TJ - Being pissed about the Sulfurus lynch isn't necessarily alignment-indicative. Because if he were scum & smart, he would raise hell about it in the scum thread, and not here in the main thread, where it paints him in a negative light. But he could have been WIFOM'ing, or he could have been reacting in an emotional moment, without first thinking about how it would be perceived (as this is his first Mafia-by-Forum game, it sounded like). Moreover, there was something specific about TJ's behavior (that I won't bring to light just yet) that I found suspicious throughout all of Day 1. A town-check on this guy would keep me from spending the rest of the game tunneled on him. lol


Well here's the thing, there are two ways to play this, if there is a DT in this game.

Clearing lurkers or red checking them will help you in LYLO - as scum will push a certain way through a game and then boom late game clearing people may catch them off guard.

Alternatively you can also look at people whose current behaviour (if reasonably active) are soemwhat questionable or you cannot get a good read on them or if they appear controversial (like some people are townreading and others are scumreading) then they are also good checks. Given the current game state, I think for example Grokken would be a good check in this category.

As for TJ's behaviour I think I know what you might be inferring but we'll see how he progresses N1/D2.

Well it never hurts to plan for the next phase.

I look at those who haven't voted for instance and I do wonder if some of them were trying to blend in (maybe? IDK, it's too early to tell, ie WP), but they really need to step up if they are town and....

....the four people who did not vote for the love of everything good esp if you are town, DO NOT FORGET TO VOTE!!!!!!!!!

tbh I have 2 suspicions but I'd rather wait. If I'm right, I'd rather not say it and die. Either way I doubt Mafia will try and kill me since some people apparently somehow see me as a possible scum and they will try and bus me. But knowing that they might kill me although there are better people to kill. ^.^ I love screwing things up for the Mafia.

You can post like 1 minute before night ends. That way, mafia can't kill you for whatever you say, as they don't have time to react.

Usually when Mafia can't stop a d1 lynch, it's a sign that they don't have much sway over town and that the town 'leaders' are probably actually town. The number of people who didn't vote throws that up in the air a little bit, but I think for now we can look elsewhere other than HTS, Kelsier and n00b. There's nothing to stop HTS bussing Sulfurus, but at the same time the general inactivity of town and the inevitability of the Moosy lynch make me think that's unlikely. Especially because, from a meta perspective, I don't think scum HTS would bus a new player so out of the blue - the aim of these games is at least partly to make everyone enjoy and learn the game.

I should probably finish my thoughts by saying that n00b was on Sulfurus from the start, so I think a bus is unlikely. I don't know whether Kelsier is a busser. His behaviour is definitely the most suspicious of all the people on Moosy - he had been wanting to lynch Silent and Wonna (I think, phone posting here). Still, he wasn't sold on the Moosy lynch, so it's not too big of a stretch.

sulfur's exit post saying that "4 people not voting means it doesn't count" indicates mafia is in the non votes who could have swayed it for him.

Meh, two things:

1) I don't think it necessarily reads that way; and
2) I don't think we should place too much weight on what he said, since technically he shouldn't have said anything.

Or the fact that given he's flipped scum, it really should be disregarded as WIFOM.

Yeah I don't necessarily read it in that way. It could have just been townies that would have sheeped the case on me.
