Better than a boring game that's for sure. | ||

Blue's have a 50/50 guess as well on the game type. I really don't see what your getting at. | ||

Working out the Game type helps blues but not the town while reds already have a 50/50 guess on the type and if they work out there is for example a medic in play they know the game type and can use it against us. Alright since you asked for it I'll start with you. Let's break this post down shall we? Statement 1: Finding this information helps blues. Statement 2: Finding this information does not help town. Statement 3: Red's have a 50/50 guess on the game. Wow seriously man, step it up. Think things through. You should be able to see the conclusions people can come to when they look at these statements and connect the dots. Especially when they combine it with this. but I agree in that we should stop this discussion and get onto analysing people | ||

Notice how I didn't accuse you? Play smarter. Think about what you want to say. Don't be a kurumi and barf out your random thoughts onto the page and hope it makes sense. | ||

What exactly is there analyze exactly? What has this contributed? Take some initiative as well and listen to your own advice. Unless your scum, then you can go burn and die. | ||

Let me see break this down with less fluff Lord Vatti might not even show up and get modkilled therefore we should waste our lynch on him? Sorry, but what kind of scummy ass backwards ass logic is that? Might I remind you that there are no vigilantes this game. Lynching is the only way for us to fight scum. Let's see what we gain by doing a AFK lynch. Oh wait, we gain nothing! We will start day 2 with no information from a lynch, a modkill and a mafia kill. the town votes for Lord Vatti. since he was queued up to be modkilled, we lose nothing, and get a free night of investigations, potential saves, both, or neither. What the hell mate. Incase you didn't know scum kill at night as well. What your suggesting is that we waste time, lose our lynch and wait on blue information. Terrible terrible plan. You vote for who you think is the most suspicious. That being said, I looked through the few posts there are carefully and realized I have been a bit hasty with my vote. ##Unvote ##Vote Alderan Oh no you don't Alderan. You don't get away with that. A bit too eager to jump on the bandwagon are we? Hoping Vatti comes and provides something useful. Posting something Useful you say? What have you done again? Your going to vote for him because it's the most logical choice? What logic? I don't see any. Keep in mind guys we're less than 24 hours in, I mean, I just woke up. Just like last game (I think almost all of us were in), a list of people who are posting very generic fluff and not helping the town is much more helpful than an inactive list. Huh, quite the 180 there scum . Go burn and die. | ||

LV's contributions are absolutely nothing. i'm glad you brought up the vigilante point aprudds. don't we know too well that just because a vigilante CAN kill someone at night, doesn't mean he SHOULD? likewise, now that lynching is our only KP, just because we CAN lynch someone doesn't mean we HAVE to, especially with a modkill on the block. and i know i look so scummy for this but i'm gonna stick with my guns here and ask you to vote for Lord Vatti til he shows up to give some input. this might just be the epicmafia vet in me speaking. but when we have someone who is actively lurking, we vote for them. most of the time once the votes pile up, they show up in the discussion. but if not, vote-kicking them is the best way to progress the game, as they would have "vegged out" and died anyways. as soon as LV shows up i'm happy to throw my vote on drazerk. but for the time being, i have *minimal* suspicion of drazerk. i'd rather make a harmless vote than vote for someone based on minimal suspicions. of course as soon as LV shows up, the *minimal* suspicion will be my greatest suspicion so i'll change then. but please don't let mafia jump up to a 3 kill advantage this early Your supporting a no lynch day one. We gain no info out of that, go 2 men down because of the modkill and night kill and then REPEAT DAY ONE ALL OVER AGAIN. So we have to take a risk, big deal. If we never took risks we would lose. Why are you fear mongering? What happened to the GTRSRS of last game who was tunneling with balls of steel. The only person that would benefit from a no lynch is scum. | ||

Who neutered you Gtr? Where is the prideful fearless motherfucker from last game? | ||

If we don't have a half-decent case against somebody by tomorrow I think that It WOULD be better to just lynch L.V. rather than do a semi-random lynch. However a. there's still time for LV to pop up and NOT get modkilled b. there's still time for a semi-decent case against someone to be established. I'm still leaving my vote on Drazerk until he posts something with substance (or a better case arrives). You realize with this mindset we are just going to be waiting till the dawn of time. Your going to "wait" for a better case to come? What you think scum are just going to barge in and yell HERE I AM COME AND GET ME? | ||

Waiting to see what people say when they post more is prudent. And if they don't post anything then that tells us something too. Also, your case against Alderan? Shitty. Oh so you will only lynch when your 100% certain someone is scum? I guess you will never lynch anyone then unless you get a DT role. How convenient. Your relying on being passive and hoping people out themselves. Do you think scum is just going to jump out and say LYNCH ME PLZ ^_^ with everyone just sitting around and 'waiting'? No waiting is what scum want, to slowly pass the days along picking us off one by one. I realize we don't want a mislynch but if we aren't active and surrender the first day to scum without even trying to fight back what does that leave us in day 2? Exactly where we started, waiting for more information. | ||

Also, don't metagame too much, its entirely possible that aprudds got mafia twice in a row. @aprudds: sorry, I don't mean to be passive. Partly I'm just a little uncertain considering how absolutely wrong I was about everything last game. I actually agree with you that we should lynch whomever seems most suspicious, not go after L.V. for being inactive. But I think we have around 12 hours for people to post and possibly slip up. No, people won't shout "I am mafia" but they may contradict themselves or make spurious arguments. You realize that "I'm uncertain how wrong I was" was the EXACT card I played last game to get people off me when I was scum Don't get demotivated because of last game, this is a much smaller game, it will be much harder to lurk compared to the lurking scum did last game. | ||

I would like to draw attention to the fact that Alderan STILL hasn't posted anything other than, "Imma jump on da bandwagon broz." He starts posts after an inactive list is put up, says this Keep in mind guys we're less than 24 hours in, I mean, I just woke up. Just like last game (I think almost all of us were in), a list of people who are posting very generic fluff and not helping the town is much more helpful than an inactive list. condemning the inactive list, then HOURS later comes in with this Hoping Vatti comes and provides something useful. ##Vote: Lord Vatti Until I see a case against someone else it's the only logical place for a vote. He reeks of scum. Within 2 posts he contradicts himself a does a 180 on his position and then slides into the darkness. He's trying to pull exactly what Lafali pulled last game. About the case with the voting patterns, they are bound to change since the game is much smaller this time. | ||

I agree with him, that we shouldn't randomlynch on day1 in general... mhh difficult situation. If we had a DT for sure, I'd also say, we better lynch a lurker/afkler... But since we cannot be sure about that... From another point of view: If he was mafia, he shouldn't be interested in lynching a person that's afk. Best case for them is, if we lynch one of us who is contributing. So I think this position of him to lynch someone who probably gets modkilled doesn't convince me. A more valid point is his passiveness... How much time is left until nighttime? Can you be more firm in your future posts? And since you came back what do you think of treadmill? Do you still think he's suspicious? | ||
