It is important to note we're searching for suspicious people with funny looks. It is not the usual job. Good luck! | ||

So let's just focus on finding scum, and hopefully we won't HAVE any lurkers to even worry about! Yeah? YEAH!!! WOOOOOOOO FOR TOWN!!! Lynching a lurker should be a D1 only policy. Otherwise we're playing too much into the hands of mafia in terms of odds. | ||

"Yeah, I've got this FRIEND, okay? NOT ME, IT'S A FRIEND! Anyway..." lol For my part, I'm going to be treating new players the same way I'd be treating anyone else - I'm going to examine their posts, address any concerns I have with their reasoning/logic, and draw a conclusion about their intentions based on how/if they answer. Obviously it's going to be harder than discerning the intentions of people who "should know better" or whatever, but that's all we can really do. | ||

In the last few games I have played newbies have been lynched from poor evidence when they in fact were legitimately trying to help the town. I want everyone to take this in mind as we deal with newbies. So you suggest that we identify a group of players and then hold them to a lower standard than we would for a typical player? Are you aware of how low those standards are already?

This is actually my first game of TL Mafia, so im pretty psyched, and will most likely make really make arguments, so please bear with me! As a fellow townie I hope that we can all work as a team to find the scum, and lynch them! Until they all die! YEAH! | ||

You still think I'm a newbie  @Kurumi I know spam is bad, but we should put as many posts as we need to prove our point. You dont need to go shooting down conversation, by suggesting a minimal post policy. Just bringing up the idea starts off on a "maybe I should post until I have more stuff" attitude. | ||

No way dude, I was saying your post made it sound like you do. Anyway, Kurumi is right. This thread is going to get out of hand fast. In fact, Wiggles has a house rule regarding spam and specifically requested that we try and consolidate our thoughts as much as possible. That being said, I have like 50% of the posts now, so don't take your example from me...but he's right, we need to try and consolidate our posts whenever necessary. | ||

Im suggesting more that the intent of the posts of these players is a more accurate representation of their alignment. Different standard. | ||

This is my first large game, so it's going to be an adjustment...but one I'm capable of making. Being that it's friday night I will be scarce, but I'll be active on saturday, and I'm sure I'll have plenty of material to analyze. Stay tuned. Saying that this is your 5th time in a row being town-aligned has the undercurrent of convincing us you are town in this game, and you dodge posting responsibility by it being a Friday. This is a scummy post to start out with. | ||

LMAO Okay, hold up. First of all, My very first post opened with "Hi I'm town". Not to mention the fact that I just explained why loads of posting is going to be detrimental for town (which could be construed as 'dodging posting responsibility').

I vote we start this game off by lynching one of them, because getting a solid read on any one of them is rather difficult. This list has been generated based on my experience with them in previous games, which means at worst, we've got a 22% chance of hitting scum. And if not, I don't want them in my town at lylo anyways. Who's with me? | ||
