I'm helping HtS cohost Mafia Down Under and have been waiting on Cannons to start (maybe it will... one day) so honestly this game woulda gotten the short end of the stick of my attention if Cannons gets going.

Co-hosting probably requires more attention than playing Cannons. I think Cannons could be fun, but thinking in that game is somewhere between "optional" and "pointless."

Nah, Mage is right. If the deadline was 23:00, you could cast votes until 23:00:59. In this game, the deadline will be XX:59. Which is fine, as long as everyone understands that.

Sorry Barakos

It would be bad news for me even more if you roll vig. Pissing off the vig is not a good idea.

Except that YOU aren't in the game. lol

If I got "special initiation" in my first game here, I didn't notice it. heh

I am excited for my first game here, though nervous. Having read other games, seems like some people lose their heads in this game? I was hesitant to join because of that.

Most of the hotheads and rude players don't seem to be on the signup list for this game. So hopefully you'll be okay.

Thank god I feel so free.
No restrictions or leashes on me this game.
The air smells so good when you can take the time to actually stop and enjoy the scene.
No looking behind your shoulders, no worries of scrutiny.

##Vote: ruXxar

There ya go. How about now? :D

RNG gave me town, thank God.

Meh, I don't get people's reluctance to play as Scum. Granted, this is only my third game here, but I think it'll be exciting, whenever I finally get a chance to kill some of you people.

Blue role? Sure, cool, I'll take that. But I'd rather be Scum than VT (maybe I'll feel differently once it actually happens.)

I'll keep posting this at the start of each game, until people actually start following it. From the General Guide on how to play:

Don’t babble. If you speak without having a clear goal in mind, you impede the town and decrease everyone else’s productivity. This paralyzes town analysis and decision-making and allows mafia to hide in the chaos

Not totally sure that ruXxar is in violation yet. But...it kinda seems like it.

He knows that some of us have seen him play as both allegiances already, so I'm not a fan of him making this wild change in his posting style. It could serve as a decent smokescreen.

Eh, I like this style/tone a lot more than the one he had in his two previous games.

Meaning Himalayas and Gaiden, where he was scum? I didn't play in either of those games. How would you summarize his style/tone in them?

So far only 4/13 players have posted. Bit of shame.

False. Barakos and rayn each made a throwaway post after the Day started. If we decide to "lynch all liars" we can start with you! \o/

And then I come to reread and ruxxars style just gives me more headaches. -.-

Dunno, what to make of it atm, last time someone used poetry in a game it confused the hell out of me and 2 of the 3 reads I got from it were utter bullshit, so for now, I'll not jump to any conclusions about ruxxar, based on that style, but would really appreciate it, if this changes sometime soon...

I think I'm in the same boat with you. I don't want to tell anyone how to play, but I would rather see that stop.

Kinda strongly dislike rayn for coming in and making an alibi-post, that kinda reads like he won't be here for the rest of the dayphase... let's just hope, that's not the case and there will be more posts from him.

I'll be pretty surprised if he just completely bails on Day 1. What kind of example would that set for the newbies?!

Yep, and my 3rd game total! I noticed ruXxar said this is his 4th game. I need to make sure he plays in my 4th Newbie game, so that I can see him listed as a "Veteran" and my mind can = blown.

PS: Are you Scum?

i don't know why ruxxor is so defensive about his "posting style" when the accusation against him is so baseless.

What is "the accusation against him?" ruXxar hasn't posted since Breshke said he thought he was Scum, so you can't say anything about ruXxar seeming defensive about that. You must mean something else?

On that note n00bKing you seem a lot more friendly in this game than in others. At least you're posting a lot more fluff here and responding to more stuff than going down to business like you normally would. Any particular reason why?

Because I am Scum too. Didn't you see me say hi to you in the QT?

Aside from that, having so much crossover in the player lists for the Newbie games is making it feel more like a "community" I guess. In the first game, I didn't know anyone so there wasn't anything to do but get down to business. I am also in a lighter mood because my move is finished (whereas it was in-progress during the first game, and I was busy unpacking all the time during the second game) and because my birthday is this weekend. w00t!

But I think people will find some "down to business" in at least a few of my posts so far. And that will continue. If it doesn't, I fully expect to be called out on it.

/facepalm. I just realized that Sulfurus was in this game and that his first and only post was /in. I'm tempted to lynch him because it's my third game with him as well and he's rolled Mafia Godfather the last two times.

Yeah, I actually thought my initial vote would be against Sulfurus, and then when someone asked why I made the vote, I would be like "Because he's the Godfather?" But then ruXxar made his post about how nice it felt to be carefree and under no scrutiny, and I felt compelled to put a vote on him, just to interrupt his nirvana.

I'll be interested to see what Sulfurus brings to the table in this game. I felt like it was pretty easy to distinguish his scum game in Newbie 12 from his Town game in Newbie 10.

Yes I actually disagree quite strongly with the ruxxor scum read currenty, the posts just feel to free to me even if people are annoyed with the style. From what I read you currently scum read him for not trying to discern the alignment of people currently.

Apparently Damdred learned a new word today, and is very excited to try it out!

While I think its true he hasn't posted many reads at this juncture I think there are some fairly obvious things that are different this game than his other games as scum

Can you tell us what those "fairly obvious things" are? One way that I've seen scum players create filler is to talk about how a player's behavior is different from this game or that game, without being specific about how. You mention him seeming happy, is there more to it than that?
