Maybe then you would somehow be a mafia too? Please. | ||

If you want to run the test a few times and my name comes up...then fine, like I said I'm/we're screwing around and the fact that you're getting defensive about it just seems odd. Lol I said it was silly, so in essence we were saying the same thing, except you pointed a finger for no reason. I could just as easily say you could have an interest in downplaying the results as "screwing around." It's simply pointless and baseless, which is exactly what I said. I know that the average IQ on TL is around 180, but there are exceptions that might think there is a high chance of real mafia names coming up from these, and I don't want to have people going with random number generators over actual clues that aren't even released yet. | ||

That way townies can organize a lot better, and I don't think the same kind of misdirection is as likely as it was with Ace. Not to discredit Ace, I liked his system, just there were too many bad interpretations and too many townies. EDIT: And I'm taking care of the list right now n_n | ||

I guess that's true, considering there is no Mayor/Bodyguard position in this game, and there won't be enough medics if mafia all decide to gang up. On the other hand, it doesn't make much difference, seeing as it is usually the active posters who are pointing closer to the truth in clue analysis that are taken out out of self-preservation, and those are also the people who would be good choices for leadership. Either way, people who are useful will perish. At least having a set group of people that could organize things between each other while they perish one by one will help us narrow down the list of mafia, and if these people are smart, they won't have blue roles. That way by eliminating the active clue analyzers, we would also be potentially forcing the mafia to focus on plain townies, while leaving the useful blue names alive for longer. | ||

That way, when they release some "convincing" clues, it could just be the mafia giving out false information. Actually, the mafia could rally the town to lynch another mafia member the first day, thus building trust in the first mafia member. Their kill count won't decrease, anyway. Then, they'll say something along the lines of "hey paramedics, protect me please! I think I'm going to die because I'm giving you guys all this information!". At the end, when all the paramedics are protecting him, if the first mafia was the suicide bomber, he'd just go and suicide himself against some random townie, killing a townie, and multiple paramedics along with him. So watch out for that. That's what I was going to do if I were mafia. Uh, wouldn't detectives obviously have to check out any person that is garnering a lot of support and authority? | ||

Wouldn't it be safer to lynch the person he spoke up about, and if he DOESN'T come up red then lynch the DT? By lynching the DT you have a 1:1 ratio of blue : red losses at best. With the idea I just posted, a DT who has verified himself by giving a red name could keep producing results, thus being far more useful to the town than was if he was dead. It would also take away the whole sacrifice element that would prevent DTs from speaking up; I think they would become relative loners and would try to make posts that are convincing but not too convincing, acting as one of the analysts, in order to hide their role, and their factual knowledge of who is mafia and who isn't could be lost. | ||

If the town believes that a mafia is detective, he can have a lot of sway over how the town votes. But if the next name comes up blue, then the fake DT gets lynched and you have lost 1 blue name and killed 2 mafia. I don't see why this is not plausible. I am not deviating too far from the strategy Ace mentioned: the DT will be lynched, but only if one of the people he names does NOT come up red. While the names keep coming up red, the DT stays alive. As soon as his information is faulty, we lynch him. How is this not more practical? | ||

If one of these is mafia, the clues will have to be so obscure that they'll be hard to pin down. Of course that only makes sense as long as we don't really have anything better to do. On the contrary, Chuiu always said that when the information he has is limited about a member, the clues get more obvious. Hence, weird names and lacking profiles are easy ways to actually catch a mafia. | ||

I'd rather go with clue based lynch than someone who is busy and didn't get the time to post here, so they get killed off and we get lucky or not. I think this is an especially good idea (I didn't think we could abstain) since anyone with blue names would try to keep quiet, as quiet as mafia might. It's a stab in the dark and nothing more, and statistically speaking this is not a good bet. Although, if we DO have to lynch, an inactive might be our best bet. If we can though, I vote to abstain. | ||

Just because the clues aren't obvious to the few people who go through the trouble of posting lengthy analysis doesn't mean that the clue isn't obvious in general. By more obvious I don't mean it will have like their name backwards or something, I mean that it is easier to just keep their name in mind (if that is all they have) and just try to place it in every sentence. | ||

If you haven't, I suggest checking either nemY or SoleSteeler. It really only is a gut feeling I have, but first of all they posted the exact same things: "I abstain, because I don't have a clue. Good Luck to the town blah blah." Sort of. It's the exact same thing 80% of us mafia did at the beginning of the last game before we had a plan. I vote to lynch Folca, for now. I have to disagree with you. People abstain from voting when they don't agree with the current trends in the game (the current Folca vs Ace thing is kind of ugly and fishy to me, it seems a bit too weird that someone would impale themselves on the cross for 1 Mafia kill. There is definitely a ploy in there to fuck the town over, imo.). Mafia would be more likely to play along with the plans in motion so as to mix themselves in with the crowd. At least that's how I see it. EDIT: Good night all. | ||

Please, i encourage to vote for either of the 3 prime candidates for lynching, with is Ace/Folca/Decaf. DT'S Cant check abstain lists, and splitting into to many candidates will make it useless. if you want to really abstain vote for the lowest vote count candidate. Right now i think folca is most likely lynched so vote for ace or decaf I guess you're right, I didn't think that the abstain list can't be checked. Fine. I feel bad for Chuiu, though, always re-counting votes. I'm voting for Ace. Like I said, I didn't really want to vote, but since it really will hurt the town I guess... Here is my reasoning on all current suspects, hopefully many of you will take the time to read this and will agree: 1) Ace Ace is smart, active, and a constant force in Mafia games. What does this mean? That he is always a threat to the opposite side. Other people have listed the possible motives or combinations of roles for the Folca vs. Ace collision, so I won't go too in depth on it. If he is Mafia, he is pretty fucking good at covering up his intent, or somehow making the Mafia's benefit seem like the town's benefit. I'm not 100% on his innocence (maybe like 50%). I am not 100% sure that it's a good idea to lynch a strong player like him, but I am 100% sure that he is capable of some shit like this. The clues pointing to him are interesting ones (the trusting authority being a possible connection to last game's mayor... it would be a great clue). Given that I assume he has the ability to trick us all and mislead us into doing Mafia's dirty work, I am voting Ace. 2) Folca Folca had some good posts, some terrible posts (in terms of logic). Also his hyper-aggression is a bit unsettling, seeing as he only allegedly used one check and only one person... Who also happens to be one of the most useful players in the game. It would be very beneficial for the Mafia to kill off Ace even if he is just green at the cost of one of their own, because their killing power does not decrease, and on top of that the people Ace defended are now up for suspicion as well, diluting the list of actual Mafias on the suspect list. However, all this doesn't eliminate the possibility that he is just inconsistently smart and is actually a DT. If this is the case, then losing him would also damage the town, as losing a DT for a Mafia is not a fair trade, even if the town chooses to go after decaf or MG after and find them to be red. At this rate, we'd lose all our DTs pretty fast... I strongly advise all other DTs to not do what Folca did. This brings me back to the point that a good DT with the town's best interest in mind wouldn't act like he did, though he is like 15 (not that age matters, but it might) and inconsistently smart like I said, it makes his legitimacy suspicious to me. Maybe I am making a long stretch in this one, but I think it's interesting to find little clue connections like this: http://www.teamliquid.net/userfiles/24404.jpg?1162781569 ^ From Folca's profile. "Many in the crowd were excessively enthusiastic about the lynching and many were grave and quiet." Doesn't that look like the cats in the picture? Oh well... Still don't want to risk losing a potential DT. 3) Decafchicken I think that the evidence for him is ridiculous, and he has done absolutely nothing else incriminating otherwise. I don't see how people don't get that COFFEE DOES NOT ALWAYS = DECAF. Jesus, are chickens and coffee permanently taboo topics as long as decaf is in the game? We went over this in Mafia 2, this is just hot air to me. If Ace turns up red, I don't think his support of decaf is incriminating either, seeing as it is plain logical. Poor guy should just use a different name for Mafia games, seriously. 4) MidnightGladius I find the clue pointing to him to be stronger than any indications from his behavior. However, he is not the town's focus right now, and rightfully so, since we only have one decent clue in his direction. 5) Plexa Another strong player. The authority hint might point towards him, and like Ace I fully expect him to be able to twist shit to make us believe he is a townie. However, I can't say that I am too swayed in either direction about him simply because his views have been moderate and logical, as they always are. 6) MTF Yet another strong player. Ironic, isn't it, how all the heavy hitters are instantly suspects? I don't know what to think about all of this, I don't see reasonable evidence for any of them as of now, but it is interesting. Maybe it's because Folca is accusing/incriminating those that are most logical (in my eyes, at least), because they are the most likely to eliminate Mafia as more clues arise? I wish I knew. 7) JeeJee Lol. So, I vote for Ace. | ||

It is just as possible that YOU are MAFIA and want an important member of the TOWN dead, seeing as he is very useful even if he is GREEN, but if he is BLUE then you doubled your profits.

On November 05 2008 01:18 Empyrean wrote: Ace, decaf, and MidnightGladius supported each other as early as page 18 onward. Well, here is how I see it, logically. Case 1) Ace is mafia, decaf and Gladius are innocent. Variant A As you said, he defended them pretty early on. He knew he was mafia, and knew that they weren't. He defended them logically, playing it as if he was a townie - saying exactly what he would say if he wasn't Mafia at all. This way he is trying to appear as a protector to the town, keeping the town's best in interest in mind. This would raise his rep, make him appear less like a mafia. I find this alternative to be highly possible. Variant B I am taking your word on the fact that he defended them before the accusation here, so this is making this variant unlikely, but he could have been setting plans for the future. He probably knew it wouldn't be long before someone checks him, as most important players in the game ought to be checked to make sure they aren't misleading the town. As I and many others have said, it is very possible that he is that conniving and foreplanning given his reputation from previous games. This way, as I think you or fusion suggested, when people go back and see who Ace was adamant about defending, those 2 names would come up, and Ace would be taking two townie lives with him, or at least raising some sort of suspicion to once again dilute the list of actual Mafia being suspected. Of course he didn't know how soon his time would come, but that is irrelevant if you follow this logic. Although this seems possible, it is somewhat unlikely. Case 2) Ace is mafia, decaf and/or Gladius are Mafia. Variant A - Both are Mafia. Ace is trying to defend his fellow Mafia from the gallows. Although this would be logical and highly probable in a normal situation, I don't think Ace is that simple. Maybe I am overestimating him, but I don't think he would overlook the fact that (as I mention in 1;B) he will be checked at some point in the game. With the presence of other strong players such as MTF, you, fusion, Plexa, etc., he should KNOW that someone would backtrack and try to find allegiances and connections based on behavior. The tenacity with which he defended them tells me that this is an unlikely case, it would make him and them too obvious. Like you said before, he would be trying to keep the town's best interest at least superficially in mind to limit any suspicions placed on him in the future. Hence, I find this unlikely. Variant B - Only one is Mafia. Ace is trying to defend his fellow Mafia from the gallows, and is trying to dilute the amount of Mafia he is directly defending. I find this possible, but given what I said in 2;A, I don't think this plan is as good as what Ace would have probably come up with (1;A). Thus, since I find 1;A to be the most likely variant, I don't think I would point a finger at either decaf or MG based on Ace's defensiveness. I would look more into the clues. To me, the decaf clue is (as many have stated, and have been either suspected as Mafia or ignored) weak, and common, and serves as no evidence due to game 2. I doubt Chuiu did it on purpose as a red herring, it's just a normal thing, as cobbler said. The MG clue is pretty strong in my mind, and if no better suspects come out due to the upcoming clues, my vote will lie with him. | ||

First possible reason is that he was just being dumb. I think we could exclude it, knowing Ace from previous game (although I would be far from calling it 100% true, cause he seemed to panic a bit after being confronted by Folca) The second reason - much more likely - is that he knew he's going to die so he didn't care about that, but killing Folca right now gave him (or rather the mafia team) additional benefit. That benefit would be saving other mafia member that was supposed to be lynched instead of Folca, namely decafchicken (or maybe Gladius, but he was really unlikely to die then). It was always either Ace or Folca to be lynched, I don't see where you're coming from. Also, what stops us from lynching decaf tomorrow or the day after (if vigi fail hardcore)? There is simply no logic behind this. | ||

I'm thinking we wait on lynch until we get more clues. As far as defending, medics should have a few obvious choices in mind at the moment, namely useful apparent townies. DTs analyze the Ace/Folca lists, use any extra ability to check suspicious players. Jacks can work as vigi to kill Ace in case vigis don't do it. That is what I would do anyways. | ||

someone has PMed me claiming to be a detective, and they used a role check on fusionsdf he is mafia (if you believe the PM, which I do, since mafia doesnt gain a ton by faking it) so do we switch votes tonight, or lynch midnight gladius and lynch fusionsdf tomorrow? tl;dr: fusionsdf is mafia --- Does anyone find this asinine finger pointing as stupid as I do? Mafia does gain a ton, because like I said before they are simply working to dilute the suspects list with people who aren't mafia. They saw that MG is getting a lot of votes, didn't want to lose KP, and now have faked a PM claiming I am Mafia. Everyone bandwagons because fusionsdf posted it in the thread, I get lynched, flip green, and their KP remains the same for one more night. Let us work off of clues, not random PMs that are just as likely to be BS Mafia plots as real DT PMs. EDIT: And it's just as likely that fusionsdf made up this whole PM story in order to do the same thing, to take attention away from other likely candidates for at least another day or two. Hmm, let's see, who could that be? Any of the following: Scorch BloodyCobbler MidnightGladius, most of all. Can anyone find any clues linked to me, at all? Probably not. Why? Because I'm not Mafia. Can we find clues linked to those 3 individuals? Yes. Why? Because they are probably Mafia. THINK before you BANDWAGON, people. | ||

If its a lie, I already have systems in place to make the name of the 'DT' public. In which case that mafia will die. Either way, a mafia is dying tonight (probably) or tomorrow (if all else fails) And what if you are a Mafia and the name of the DT is another townie (hopefully a blue), so when I turn up green (since you know I'm not Mafia), you make everyone lynch the supposed DT, who will also turn up green/blue. Kind of a beneficial circumstance, especially if someone trusted you early on like they trusted Ace and PM'd you information on our roles. Here is what I suspect is happening: DT PMs fusionsdf, tells him he is DT. Tells him the roles of people he has checked. Whether he checked me or not is unimportant, fusionsdf knows that I am definitely green/blue because HE is Mafia. fusionsdf makes this post claiming that I am a Mafia. Everyone supports it because OH MA GAWD BANDWAGON BASED ON FUSIONS' WORD LAWL. I get lynched, turn up green. fusionsdf can't be blamed by the town, since he was just the mouthpiece, right? So, fusionsdf reveals the name of the DT, DT gets lynched. Turns up blue. The town realizes they have been fucked in the ass because they lost a DT and a townie in exchange for 1 Mafia, over a (probably, assuming no vigi intervention) 2 day period. Mafia has the same KP this whole time, whittling down the town. In the end, the town has wasted 2 lynches and killed only 1 Mafia. Mafia wins, gg no re. Are you all really so blind in your bandwagon that you can't see this? | ||

If this is the scenario the dt is lost anyay so it's just tossing up between you and fusion. That said, this situation is so implausible it's not funny. Why would a REAL dt (because this situation you're describing requires a REAL dt) pm a random townie with FALSE information (which is what is required if you are green/blue as per the circumstances you describe), he is risking everything for NO GAIN (town lynches a blue/green instead of a red) and also his own life when he is so important. You misunderstand. A real DT PM'd him about some finding he had, trusting fusionsdf to be his mouthpiece (without rolechecking HIM first, obviously, kind of like how people PM'd Ace). Fusions is a Mafia, and finds out that _____ is a DT. He puts out false information to stall the town's lynches, get rid of a DT, and a green/blue (me) at the same time. After what happened with Ace, is it really so hard to imagine? Come on Bockit, I thought you would understand at least the theory behind this. | ||

FanatIcism, maybe. Fanatacist, no. It's a bastardization of a Russian word that me and my friends used as a band name back in the day. EDIT: On November 10 2008 12:45 fusionsdf wrote: well there is another factor which makes this unlikely, but I cant reveal it to town, because that would benefit mafia. fanatacist, if a real DT PMed me a name, and I take that name and replace it with fanatacist, the DT can speak up and say a) this original target is mafia and b) fusionsdf changed the target, so he is mafia as well. then we trade 2 mafia for a green and a blue yeah not a good deal for the mafia How convenient. I'm assuming they didn't PM you a name but a list analysis. If it was a name and you did that, he would have done as you just described. | ||

On November 10 2008 12:55 Bockit wrote: I misinterpreted what you meant then. Except again, you're missing something important there. The real dt can now speak up. In fact, if this is the case (that fusion is a mafia and is putting forward the false name), I ask for the dt to speak up so that we don't lose a green/blue. If this is the correct scenario, you are going to die anyway (fusion is a mafia and you are now known as a dt). If this happens (the dt who pm'd fusion calls out fusion as a liar), you're clean fanatacist. I have my doubts at this stage. You probably wrote this as I made my edit above, so I will just restate that it is possible that the DT sent a list analysis and not a specific name. It was probably an incriminating analysis for a Mafia (fusionsdf) to pull this out of the hat, although like I also mentioned earlier, wasting time, greens, and a DT for the sake of ONE Mafia (while other suspects like MG and whoever is on this list keep on living) is more than worth it. There is no real reason for me to be a DT either, I don't see where you pulled that from. I am not a DT, I am not Mafia, I am just a townie who can see through the shit curtain being pulled down to cover up MG as soon as that bandwagon started rolling, probably clearer than many of you because I am obviously not going to be joining a bandwagon to lynch myself since I know I'm green. | ||

How you interpret your name is completely irrelevant to how Chuiu interprets it. he doesn't know the backstory, he might only see a word that looks very similar to fanaticist. You're not the first to do this too. The clue is pretty damning. I understand this point, but the spelling is not the same. Cat and hat are off by one letter, does that make one of them a possible clue for the other? No. If you want me to look up clues in this fashion I'm sure I can give you a rather long list of names where you change one or two letters to make it apply to a phrase in Chuiu's post. | ||

Fusionsdf is mafia, makes up the DT story (real original since it's already been used for real this game), and we're supposed to lynch the person he chose. After fanatacist turns up green/blue, we lynch the supposed DT, which is going to be another name fusionsdf makes up. Three days later, we kill him. Doing this makes perfect sense if MidnightGladius is actually mafia and fusionsdf is covering for him to buy time (and kills). I realize this is going to look really bad for me if fanatacist gets lynched and turns up red. ![]() That's another possibility, probably even more probable, but less profitable for Mafia than if a DT is involved. ~Opz~, fusionsdf is on the same list, is it not possible that he was worried of the same and went out of his way to single me out? What if both him and Chezinu are Mafia; they kill Mynock, which instantly would throw suspicion onto them and myself. In order to get at least one mafia out of this list, they would scapegoat me. | ||

On November 10 2008 13:25 RtS)Night[Mare wrote: ### I change my vote to Fanatacist the attitude speaks for itself. If fanatacist was a townie, he would rather make sure the town get a hold on fusion or the "DT" that pm'ed him. Instead of fighting desperately for his life. Mafia cant risk helping him out because they would be revealed as well. Sorry fanatacist, if you're town, you'll be sacrificed to a greater good. I think I was doing both, by giving that explanation for why fusion/this hypothetical DT could be Mafia or non-existant respectively. fusionsdf, this is also a possibility, but clearly I find it unlikely due to what I know about my role and what I suspect about yours. ~Opz~, I didn't leave it out, you added it in after I quoted you. | ||
