As stated before, the problem with lynching an inactive is that the mafia can usually guide the vote towards the inactive of their choice. While the lynch should be used to pressure inactives, they don't have to necessarily be the target. Even after day one, it is important that we continue to pressure everyone to contribute to the thread. We can't go overboard on the inactive hunt, however. The goal of the lynch and dt check is to find scum, not confirm inactives. I agree that guiding the blue roles may not necessarily be the best idea, but in the chance that a new player holds one of the blue roles there should be at least a general discussion how the roles should be best used. For example, the Cloyster should be actively trying to draw a hit. Please don't sit back and hope the hit eventually comes to you. Even worse, do not allow yourself to get lynched. Early on, the more experienced players are probably going to be targeted first and thus should probably be protected by Chanseys. As a town circle is not a priority at this point, checking blue's is a waste so obviously Alakazam's should check the scummiest players. You do not necessarily have to check the most active players, as suggested, since they already provide the most material to analyze.

Even if you are just starting to understand how things work, try to contribute and let the other more experienced players guide you along. Watching is going to make you a target.

Maybe you want to propose a lynch candidate right now? I actually have one right in front of me. Edit to pretify What exactly do you mean by this? How has the game started long before the first day post? There was enough time for 2 posts after pm's were sent out and then the first post was made. | ||

Pokemafia: Kenpachi lynched as town for scummy posts Salem Mafia: Kenpachi comes an hour way from being lynched as medic Insane Mafia: Kenpachi lynched as town hero for scummy actions Haunted Mafia: Recieves Scummiest Townie award If I were a TR and one of my buddies were in trouble, Kenpachi would be the first person I go after. He has a history of scummy town posts and the inability to defend himself (which usually results in him calling out his attacker). Day 1 is tough, but those who started the bandwagon need to watched. | ||

This would imply that you are planning on being active, but you've been anything but. Just a little suspicious. Yep just spent all day yesterday traveling so I'm home now. I spent this morning reading through the thread and made a comment about kepanchi. Nothing else really to add at the moment, especially considering its preferable to limit mafia info during night hits. | ||

I only know that there are 6 mafia members, that's what KPT stands for right? 6/2 = 3. No, the role counts are hidden. We know there is 6 TR, one Mew, and one Mewtwo. There are almost always 2 or less of the special roles. | ||

We barely covered the possibilities of what happened, and didn't bother to speculate which player was killed by mewtwo. That in itself could prove helpful to finding mewtwo, as well as finding scum connected to the other players who died. and I loled at one inactive accusing another. Based on the day post, I would guess Meapak was the one hit by Mewtwo. Since TR has three kp the first three were probably the scum hits and the Mewtwo hit was the one DrH forgot. That is pure speculation, however. I'm guessing Meapak was targeted for his activity rather than a personal grudge. | ||

I don't think many people who get mafia will go and afk and leave a game when they get mafia. Just food for thought... Maybe BB is mafia and someone wanted town/ really didn't have time but just wanted to say BB is a replacement and from what I hear replacements are rarely red. Same logic was used last game in salem which allowed Nemesis to slip through to the end. Lets not use that as an excuse to clear him. | ||

Tomorrow, if our medics are still safe, do you think the DTs should claim? They would be able to tell information about two players. And also the medics could protect them. Why would our dts claimed unless they found reds? Even if they did, they wouldn't necessarily have to claim. Our medics would have to protect them each day and they are vulnerable if the medics are hit. That doesn't make sense. | ||

I'm actually part of a third party group of incompetent TR's whose goal is to identify and catch a single pikachu. So far, things haven't worked out so well  On December 16 2010 02:50 seRapH wrote: 2) If we vote double lynch tomorrow, it'll come into effect Day 5, so I agree with this man, unless 2 scum You mean Day 4 right?

Hesmyrrs replacement is by no means cleared yet. Now that Hesmyrr/Pandain has taken the second hit, we know that he was indeed telling the truth. Here Gabriel discredits the hit claim to prevent the existence of a town confirmed member. Why would Hesmyrr claim taking a hit if he was mafia? That doesn't make sense. | ||

Also, I would like to remind everyone that we really should push for a double lynch today. I haven't seen a valid argument why this isn't a good idea. Kavdragon, deconduo, ShoCkeyy all voted without requesting a double lynch and should be pressured to do so. | ||

I don't have any confidence in this town's ability to find scum, given our overall track record and participation thus far. I don't understand what you mean by "it basically denies the mafia a night." If you don't have confidence in the ability to find scum, then double lynch is the way to go. By relying on consecutive single lynches, it basically forces town to guess correctly while their numbers get whittled away during the night. With the double lynch, it doubles our kp allowing us to take out two suspicious targets. Identifying reds can snowball, so its important we take them out when we have the opportunity to. | ||

I wanted to put him to the test and see how well he would of gone up against me). But after seeing what he's trying to pull right now, it's a blatant lie. I protected d3 last night and as to why he's posting as M2? It's a lie because I'm guessing he wants to stay in the game as long as possible... I know the guy is mafia and he's trying to pull it off, he's been confusing everyone with his posting and now is trying to confuse everyone once again by claiming Mewtwo. If d3 is indeed scum, the real mewtwo now has a night target. D3 wasn't lying when he stated that the best course of action at the moment was to side with town. I'm not sure about the desperate medic claim, but my vote remains on 666. | ||

I'm going to kill brocket tonight, as I think that's the only course of action where it's possible for me to win. Well, not the only one, but it reveals the most info. I think it's time for a mass roleclaim once the day post is up. lol no? Of course mewtwo wants a mass roleclaim. Then he knows which townies to pick off when it comes time for him to turn on us. | ||
