Is role overlap okay?

Also, you say no VI-type roles, but what about Traitor / other Alignment-changing roles?

So we are sent the name of a player, and then we give them a role. Wouldn't this make mafia way overpowered, as they would know both the alignment and role of a few players? I think it would work better if we each just submitted a role and they were randomly assigned to players.


We pick roles before the alignments are sent out, which counterbalances it a bit.

GM speaks truth about Mataza, this aint got nothing to do with alignment, Mataza just likes weird plans.

Don't lynch a bro for a bad plan though.

Also, I think you need to chill a bit with claiming who wrote each role. I dunnoh how that'd be good for town, cause if someone is lying he can be called out on it anyway.

Let's just chill a bit, and see where this takes us.

Can I get a brofist!

I agree with BC. The roleclaim talk won't help us. We will argue about whether it's a good, pro-town plan until we're blue in the face, and in the end we will have no idea who is actually scummy. Instead, let's get something concrete that we can analyze. Let's figure out who is good for the town and who maybe isn't, and work from there.

BC is a high-priority target no matter which side he's on, though I'm already thinking he's town.

I also think we should keep an eye on bumatlarge and Mr. Wiggles.

@BC Isn't this only going to give us a vet/good player list for this game. Do you think mafia will purposefully remove their good players from their list?

Mine for example would be:

# GMarshal
# kitaman27
# bumatlarge
# Amber[LighT]
# BloodyC0bbler
# Meapak_Ziphh

That's pretty much a list of players we think would be good as mafia no?


grrr....


Dear god, thats quite a post restriction you have going on there Amber. Unless I'm wrong and you are faking.

Are you able to talk normaly?

All right, since Amber's posting restriction makes him literally impossible to analyze, I'd say he's up to the front of the queue for a DT check.

Bullet-bill is able to "sniff out" roles that have guns. Thus, a dog.

I have no idea what fist-pounding does, but it looks like Palmar also has a posting restriction and must talk like a "bro". I went for it since I figure worst-case scenario I die and then everyone lynches Palmar for killing me.

For what it's worth, when I have a DT role I don't check the players I'm sure are scum, I check the players whose alignment I have no clue about and can't get a good read on. It helps me stay more organized and keeps me less paranoid. Take it or leave it, but it might be a good approach to take if we're working around a town-wide "zodiac list".

I'd like to point out that redFF's posts have been largely fluffy and pointless. I don't feel comfortable FOSing him just yet, but I'd really like to see him step it up a bit.

I haven't seen nearly enough to convince me to vote Varpulis. I also don't see how everyone is so sure of BC's pro-towniness. It doesn't look like he is going much beyond what anyone else is doing. That's not to say I think he is scum, I just do not feel comfortable being too lax and convincing myself he is town right from the get-go.


BC posted the plan that kept us from doing pointless discussion on the pros / cons of claiming various things and got the town back on track to do real analysis. It doesn't confirm him town, but it's a move that mafia definitely wouldn't want to make.

Yeesh this thread is ridiculous.

All right, after reading over redFF's posts I think that completely separate from his talk about his role (which is about the only thing that he has talked about for quite awhile) he's been largely useless. At the moment I'm unable to decide whether he's scummy or a bad townie, but I'm leaning towards the latter. So, I'm going to say this: RedFF, for the sake of the thread and the sanity of everyone in it, do more with less posting-wise. This is your only halfway decent post so far this game. I don't necessarily agree with the conclusions you're drawing there, but it at least shows a little effort towards things that actually matter.

I'm going to put my vote on hiro protagonist for now. He's been largely concerned with Amber's posting and role, and has quite a few posts in the thread, but has done nothing helpful for... anybody, really. Even his questioning of Amber was just treading over familiar ground that others had already done. He's threatened to try to lynch anybody that talks to Amber without asking him a question directly (I think? hiro can be hard to understand), but hasn't followed up on that statement. He's just dead weight at this point and until I see him do something solid I'm going to be suspicious.

Jackal.


As of right now the list I have given should be the centered Zodiac list. You have all had your chance to talk about it and as no one has really done so there is the list. Everyone on it will have to be held carefully accountable for their actions. Most of us have a fair number of games behind us to give a decent interpretation of our play as town or mafia. Of this list, a few of us have appeared more town like than others.

Now before everyone goes "sweet dt's dont check here" think again, as you are horribly off.

Watcher or tracker style roles. This is the list you focus on. If we go out, if we get visited you want to know. It gives you the ability to connect dots of who is red and who isnt, who lies and who doesnt as time goes by,

Standard role or alignment style detectives your job is to sweep everyone who isnt on this list. Start with whoever is obviously playing suspectly.

Now, Medics, I will be posting a list closer to day end on what you guys should be doing. As of now there is not enough of a list for us to accurately center you on, nor do I really wish to give mafia a larger amount of time to discuss exactly how to deal with the list.


I'm willing to continue rolling with this.

I have been sleeping over this and it´s bugging me.
So here´s the thing:

There are things we are not expecting(yes obvious).
We have 33 people and 33 roles. Yet Mafia have only 1 Kill per night.
A reasonable amount of people for scumteam would be somewhere around 5-9. This is not slightly off balance, this is "WTF is this shit?".
Looking at these numbers, I would refuse to play the mafia side, because of pointlessness.

Scum slip?

I agree with the doggy. Chaos13 has been doing a really good job of contributing this far, and I think he's been extremely pro-town.

sandroba, on the other hand, has done nothing since the beginning of the game, where he weakly pushed a plan that involved everybody claiming whose role they had made. He also endorses LAL policy lynches, which, in this setup.... ehhhhh. I won't critique his plans too harshly, but what sets my alarm bells a-ringin' is that he proposed these plans (easy for mafia to do to appear like they're contributing, not to mention the plans were likely doomed to fail anyways) and then promptly failed to do anything else.

On May 31 2011 05:19 sandroba wrote:
Hey Mataza, you are kinda making a big deal out of this, aren't you? Starting to sweat under this little pressure, huh?


This was another of his posts from early in the game. I know it's a small thing, but this post in particular, as early in the game as it was, screams scum to me. Scum love to pile on aggressive pressure without content backing it up in little posts like these.

##Vote sandroba

Also, it sounds silly, but I'm pretty sure Amber is town at this point. He's said a lot with very little and is clearly trying to help us out.

Christ this three-way sandroba / redFF / Jackal catfight is terrible.

I'm going to say this plain and simple:

You guys are contributing nothing. You're inflating the thread with several pages of bitching that is only making it harder to get real scumhunting done. If I had to choose, I would say that none of you or two of you are mafia, and to be honest I don't think any of you are smart enough mafia to get in an endless fight in order to clog up the thread -- the only people that I've seen pull off that style successfully were Ace and Pandain in Insane Mafia 1. The real mafia are likely sitting back, sniping a bit here and there, and laughing at you.

So please, think about what you say before you say it, and try to fit your arguments into concise posts instead of getting into these idiotic, de-railing spats. I'm fine with you being suspicious and arguing, but the way you're doing it won't get us anywhere. Make your case, and then let it be.

I'm going to put my vote on Tackster for now. I agree that his big post is pointless. Plus, it's timing is impeccable, as its position in the thread is such that it can be easily skimmed and ignored without much scrutiny. I'm not sure about sandroba being scum, and I like that he's been posting more. Honestly, at this point I wish he'd shut up a little.
