The game starts in about an hour, and role pms will be going out shortly before that.

The green light of the Larryboy signal blazed across the deep purple night sky of Veggietown....

... our brave hero Larryboy donned his costume and drove off into the night......

Day 1

[image loading]




Bob the Tomato has been ground to mush!

Larry's hairbrush was found at the scene of the crime...

It seems that Larryboy has gone missing... surely he was not responsible for Bob's death!?! The town assembled in the Kitchen to plan their course of action.

You have 48 hours left to vote!



Flavor is just flavor. The voting deadline is 04:00 GMT (+00:00), 48 hours from this post.

If you haven't received your role PM (and you have) then don't post in the thread and PM a host/cohost. If you have any questions about rules or game mechanics feel free to ask in the thread using the question font (bold and green) or you can pm a host/cohost. But first, go and read the OP. Your answer will most likely be found there.

Some of the more important rules are, NO EDITING your posts, NO PMS allowed, and NO talking about this game outside of the game. Make sure your votes are in the correct format
(##Vote Qatol) and with the correct spelling otherwise they will not be counted.

Updated game status information such as deadlines can be found in this post.

I have already completed exhaustive behavioral profiles of each of you based on pregame chatter. My advice to scum is to say as little as possible, because each word you write will only serve to compound your guilt. Surely I will be shot n1 due to the efficacy of my methods. Inferior townies fear not, for by this point I expect to have the scumteam predicted with a reliability of 3 nines.

Hi All.

From other games, it seems the best 3 questions to ask are:

1) Stance on Lurkers: i.e. Do you policy lynch?

2) How do you think scum would try to get influence with us?

3) [fluff] DONT BUY A POOL. I wasted all my time today with pools and hate it !



I won't be around for the next 6 to 8 hrs (DAMN POOL!)

Yes, if there is no strong scum read, vote off a lurker. If we create a good town environment, where people can contribute and not be scared, there should be no lurkers. That is my goal this game!

2) How do you think scum would try to get influence with us?

From what I have seen in my 2 games, it depends on the person. Some have lurked hardcore, some have given minimal contributions.

If we have a solid town atmosphere, and people can share opinions freely, I am sure we can reduce the influence!

3) [fluff] DONT BUY A POOL. I wasted all my time today with pools and hate it !

AGREED!

yes because we don't need inactive townies it does not help the town at all not to have everyone contributing because the more we get scum to talk the more they can give away.

1) If I dont have a strong mafia read on someone by the end of the day, I will feel compelled to policy lynch and not waste a day with a NL.

2) I think scum would try to get influence by offering bits of analysis but not taking a strong lead on lynching someone until someone else does first, and then supporting that lynch and bandwagonning.

3) I know dude, we have an open pool with no screen around it and I have to skim it every day, and vacuum every other day. Such a bitch.

I used to think that lynching the worst lurker no matter what was a dumb policy, but after some experience, I've decided that it could be worth it simply because if you can't ferret out that lurker, it will negatively affect all of your other decisions throughout the rest of the game.

Honestly, I'm just excited for bringaniga's complete psychological profiles on all of us.

1) If somebody is super-lurky, they obviously aren't helping town much. I'm not lynching a lurker over a scummy player though.

2) With posts just like your one above

3) You live in australia doesn't that shit just evaporate? What are water bills like down there? I have a cousin visiting australia atm (Melbourne I think).

Sup everybody

So... my stance on lurkers is fairly similar to my other two games. I don't think we should actively try to push for their lynches D1, but if I don't have a solid scum read I have no problem getting rid of a lurker.

Scum will be scum, try to fake contributions, post a lot of fluff ect. Possibly try to derail conversations.

I'll be more active in the morning, I'm going to sleep for now. cya guys I'm excited to get this started.

In answer to your second point I feel that you are flat wrong most scum probably won't start up the towns conversation for them asking what they shouldn't do. Please tell me why it is scummy.

I'm not denying, discussion is good/important and if nobody starts it scum autowin. However, if a scum can get control of town fast, they almost instawin. As a gambit, it seems fair since people like you are jumping in to defend him pretty fast.

Plus, the use of the word "us" is a pretty ingratiating town claim to make in your first post (if town thinks of mocsta as "us" then he is pretty happy). Either way, that post felt like the opening gambit of a scum whose plan was to utterly control town. Obviously there are other ways to read it, I'm not voting mocsta here (yet).

Additionally, the way the 2nd question is asked almost makes me think he is asking "Tell me your scumhunting plans so that I know what you are thinking about and what I can avoid".

My 2c

How would you have started the town conversation and not fallen into the points you make I would have made a post similar to his.
