I'll probably not vote Kville for the reason that he should be replaced. But that reply after saying like 10 words in 40 hours sure as hell doesnt make him look better.

From the OP:

4. You may vote for yourself. You may not vote for anyone dead or outside the game.

Kville do you want to be lynched/replaced/modkilled?

We know you know how to play Kville. So start explaining. Currently it seems like you're lying because your 3rd post on Day 1 in NMIII was a vote on Marvellosity. Even if you are telling the truth about your thoughts on d1 lynches your play is so anti-town we honestly would be better off without you

Alright, a couple of thoughts.



First, why has no one called KVille out on the fact that all he's done is avoided a modkill two days ago and posted zip since then? At the very least step up and say that if he doesn't step up his game he's going to die D2 or something in case he really has been busy. Golbat lived til D4 like this last game as a scum doing the exact same thing. He's managed to drop 6 posts in his other game of mafia but he can't spend 5 minutes here?

@Sonic Death Monkey
So your case against me consists of determining I have "pseudo-helpful posts." What part of my post was "pseudo-helpful"? The fact that if I point out things that don't necessarily mean scumtells because I don't want to see the town go down the same road as it did in XXIV? Fair enough it hasn't been the most helpful but your entire case on lynching me is off of a lack of contribution.

Like others are saying why am I a better lynch than Cubu? He's said he's suspicious of Drazak for one post (which could easily be a misunderstanding of the rules) and is asking people to kill off Kville instead of him because he isn't there. Not providing reads to show why he'll be helpful day2, he just should live because there is someone afk. You bring up how a lurking scum tends to be more rational without any explanation as to why you say that (except to further your own case) and justify not lynching Cubu. Spazzes have been scum before in newbie games (DrWiggl3s, YourHarry) and the only reason they've lived was due to giving them the benefit of the doubt for days (Got Vig Thrawn lynched instead of Scum YH in XXIV).

You also say If you think Drazark is more scummy why would you ever consider Cubu over him? It's not like a flip on Cubu confirms anyone else's alignment this early in the game. Explain.

(As a side note I've just contributed as much as Cubu in terms of scumreads, but you're missing my point from earlier still. It isn't how often you contribute its the intent and what you contribute.)

Actually I'm in agreement with this, especially the bolded part.

Kville answer this question. You have played extremely poorly, broken a rule, and there is the evidence in the replacement thread that suggest you wanted to be removed from the game. Do you want to play or not? If you do, then why are you purposely playing so extremely anti-town? I say your bad play is intentional because here are your actions:

-Lurk on 1 post until near voting deadline
-Broke a rule by self-voting
-Make an statement about non-lynching so illogical I don't think anyone would have it as an honest opinion

So why play intentionally bad if you are town?

Over analyzing is cute and can be a feature of a scum. It is day one and it seem as if you are in desperate need for a lynch. so desperate in fact that you are over reading the rulebook and calling me a cheater.

Good catch, forgot about that.

Any comments on this, Stutters?

Part 2 Incoming. I just wanted to address the case against me first to give you guys times to look it over.

This has been addressed, read the last couple of pages.



The case is based on you contributing a few times without any valuable reads or questions. Your contributions have been about:

1) Lynching lurkers.
2) Low post counts not necessarily being scummy.
3) List-making.

You've only covered the most generic questions possible and without helping out on reads and who to actually lynch. You've been in the thread but you're the definition of laying low. Put yourself in my shoes, reading your own posts, why wouldn't my read be that you're scummy?

As for XXIV, I haven't followed TL maffia threads. You'll have to enlighten me as to why your posts in this thread was meant to avoid whatever happened in that thread.



It's based on experience and what I believe to be fairly sound logic. The first is obviously my personal observations of games, admittedly limited to 4-5 games, mostly newbie. The second is covered in the quote in my last post. The inexperienced town newbie knows he's townie and he usually underestimates the difficulty of getting this information across (it's really hard). This leads him to 1) underestimate the risk of getting into a sticky situation and 2) overestimates his chances of getting out of those situations. The reverse is true for an inexperienced scum. I'm obviously working with probabilities here, the fact that there are exceptions doesn't mean the analysis is invalid.



Because if we keep Cubu around I'm worried he'll just keep his nonsensical posts coming. Since Drazark is more active and tries to contribute in an intelligent way, keeping him there's a good chance we can get a better read later (in either direction). There's a decent risk Cubu will remain a black-box.



I don't think so. What was the intent of your contributions? Like I said, it seems like your posts are trying to look like contributing without actually adding much value at all.

The case against you isn't rock solid, but as I've just explained, it's the wagon I like best. You've mostly stayed out of the thread for ~40 hours and now show up for EOD, why haven't posted anything of value earlier? You've put yourself in a shitty situation because not everyone will be around for EOD (as a Euro I need to go to sleep now). I still like your wagon better than Cubu's so I'm leaving my vote on. If you're really townie I hope you survive and give me a chance to change my mind d2.

You started off by ignoring this:


Then you follow it up by posting this:


So, we got this part 2 coming anytime soon?

Or are you, for the second time, saying you will do something and then just ignore it?
