##Vote Kitaman27 He's reliable townie, and I have learned to see through his evil shenigans if need be. But you should still vote me. But if not me, vote kitaman. But no seriously vote me. | ||

Waiting for people to put in a serious campaign with a decent policy. This is why I'm waiting for Mr. Wiggles and Cyber_Cheese to provide us with good reasons; and right now, Wiggles has the best campaign of the lot. I of course wonder if Sandroba or Palmar will try to get to the elections again. Well now we see you have no idea what you are talking about. I have seen kitaman play in alot of games as town and mafia, and going off one game means you have a biased opinion off limited samples. I can't read Wiggles for shit (he yet again starts the game with a post that seems strikingly similar to every other initial post he makes). I'd back cyber_cheese's idea of lynching a scummy candidate. It's not very original, but putting more risk to running is fine by me. | ||

AND PLEASE MASON ME. I'll live with not being the mayor, but I love me some masons. Don't worry I'm not infected this game. Then I can share with you my knowledge. Also, I may or may not be batman this game, I feel a surge of confidence after winning the last game. | ||

So far I'm leaning towards voting for Cheese, as he is one of the few people in this game I have experience with. I am more likely to recognize his scum play if he is scum and, lets face it, he has a flaming pony as his campaign picture. So Cheese, since you opened the game with a vote on Wiggles, and he is now also running for mayor, will you be hanging him upon your election? I have successfully ruled this person out as mafia. I am good at this game. | ||

The "Why Bum should be mayor" post First off, as surprising as it is, people don't know who I am. You will get to know me children. Like a loving father. For those who do know me, I have many faces. I am batman, scumatlarge, or that mayor who forgot to- SHUT UP. I am all those, but none of those. I am the leader. I will not make us win this game. I will make YOU win us this game. That's my platform. I'll organize the shit out of everything and be superactive. No one can doubt that. I have more games here then any other individual. Yeah. Smoke that while I continue. I believe a strong candidacy is based around a strong lynch. It's the strongest thing a mayor can do. Any mayor who does not is a BAD MAYOR. No excuses. Guess what my ratio for lynching scum is as mayor. 100%. Bam. I'm never wrong when I am mayor. If I am elected, I will lynch scum EASILY. IT WILL NOT BE DIFFICULT. And that will trigger your innate scumhunting abilities. People will look back at this game and go "Dayum, that town was tighter then a noose around Foolishness." or something. Game Plan We are going to analyze everything so well, people will be complaining at the amount of sheer content that we will be churning out. That is our priority. It's a 50-man game, so I want you to take active posters and read into them carefully. Thread-presence people. I won't to rule this out for scum. So I'm going to throw a zodiac list down of people I think are very good at mafia. They make great plays and have experience in posting well. If you see something off about any of these people, point it out. My initial list will just be from experience. These people have THREAD PRESCENCE regardless of their role. + Show Spoiler + L wherebugsgo Foolishness BloodyC0bbler Bill Murray Palmar Protactinium (Mystlord/Incognito) Don't take offense if you aren't here, but these are posters that people look for, and scum center their discussion around. I don't think I'm great at controlling a thread, I more or less derail it as scum, and provide awesome townie support. I'd put solid players like myself, kitaman and Wiggles as vets and I'd throw them on a zodiac list, but this list is for newer players to understand strong personalities here. I would mason one of these players. Remember boys; thread prescence. Power-Roles There are alot of roles, and it is somewhat overwhelming, but as long as you apply logic to your decision making, you can't do something wrong. I'll go through each role and tell you how I would play it, because I'm good at mafia. DON'T IDLY CLAIM. THINK BEFORE YOU DO. THINK LONG. Because I think my major mistake is thinking I have to get in the middle of things as a power role early on. So I claim early, when I shouldn't. In this aspect, do not be a bum. Detective: You get roles. I think you lose some of your strength in claiming early, so I would hold off on claiming until you catch scum in a lie, or a person telling the truth is about to be lynched. This is very general, so use your best judgement. Check people in question. You will find yourself checking into the list I posted very often. Medic: Never claim unless you have ruled out all reasons why you should not. Protect people who post analysis you agree with. Bam, you are a good medic. Mad Hatter: I find this role much easier then vigilante. It's each to lay them out across scummy people and change your opinion. Mad hatters often hit at least 1 scum, so it is always worth it. Try to put it on less prominent scummy people rather then active scummy people. Rather then throw a bomb on them, get on their asses. It's never fun being down a bomb. Vigilante: Personally, I always hold my shots late, but if you see the window, BREAK IT. Just remember, there is a "too early" while there is rarely a "too-late". Do the opposite of the madhatters. VeteranPost alot, be active. I want you to have at least one warning from a mod for posting too much. Instead of reading it as "Stop posting" pretend it says "Slow-down". I picture it as if I was cruising down some urban street and the light goes yellow, and you just speed up. Exactly. Analysis. I will be doing an analysis before I post my lynch target, so you can see how I do it. Jack: You are awesome, so post like you are awesome. Don't post around what your actions will be that night, perform your actions around how you are posting. I've never been a jack so what do I know. Mason Favorite role, I kind of laugh when I see mafia masons, as they are not good at all. It's basically more work for mafia to convince people in the thread and then in PMs. Still be wary. There is a lot of mindgames in PMs, but nothing is as cool as being sure the other person is town. It's basically like a mini-game of mafia. Give each other analysis, and plan out what you will do with the other person. Better yet, mason me and we will a force to be reckoned with. Mafia roles: Keep them in mind, but don't play around them unless you have solid reasons to do so. Let mafia respond to you instead of the other way around. I am scanning for the best lynch at the moment, and I take what everyone says into account, so stop reading this and post. | ||

Looking at past games, 9 out of 10 times people make mistakes as blue. We can make it optimal. I'll be calling for shots and protects anyway, because I feel like it would help town more then it hurts it in a big game like this. | ||

On January 13 2012 16:32 Cyber_Cheese wrote: Bill Murray hasn't even posted yet. Why are you so sure you want him elected? No, that was a joke based on his always scum reputation. I will lynch the scummiest candidate. Explain. I disagree, the mayor still has a fair amount of power as the game gets closer to LYLO. Rather than calling my posts bad, try adding something to the discussion. Are you running for mayor? If so, details. If not, what do you think of the candidates? Also, bum is directing blues already? planning ahead that much seems scummy... One more thing, if anyone was even considering it, don't run for mayor based on being a blue. It gives the scum too much information on day 1, and it could be scum lying. He's posting with a positive attitude and he didnt squeem at all at the prospect of lynching wiggles. Plus he took your lameness seriously :D I'm not planning ahead THAT much, and running for mayor as blue is perfectly reasonable reasoning. Unless a vanilla townie is very good, there is little reason for him to run over a townie. I find cheese's posting rather scummy so far. He seems rather content with stepping on peoples posts this game with not much regard to his own. I will review his case. | ||

Bill has a point though, why would foolishness push bill as mayor when bill hasnt posted? It seems rather neutral, but not necessarily moot. He's drawing alot of attention. I couldn't think of a better way for him to say "HEY EVERYONE LOOK AT ME" | ||

Mason At the beginning of every cycle, you may send a PM to me detailing who you would like to Mason with during that cycle. You may PM with that person for the full cycle. You may not choose a person you have already Masoned with for the remainder of the game. The Mafia team will have a set number of people to choose as Masons. Mafia with other roles (Roleblocker, Framer, Godfather) can double up on Mason roles. They have to pick them. Do you think mafia right off the bat is going to grab the mason role and start yapping away? I think if BC is mafia, he is doing us a favor. I think masons should claim in thread, the faster the better. It forces mafia into an awkward position, or else they can't claim at all. The only thing is why BC is insisting on running for mayor as well. It doesn't seem necessary. It displays a lot of self-interest which is what I fear. I must work now but I'll check in later. | ||

I like BC, and I think his goals are pro-town, but I also feel our best move is to not make him mayor based on that. He has stated to me that he is not expecting to win from his claim, but I would like him to live up to that self-less expectation. If he has a good lynch candidate, then I'll get behind him. Town masons, it's up to you how you feel you shoul act based on BC's proposal, but be prepared to explain exactly why you haven't followed up on it already. Cyber_Cheese is my lynch choice at the moment if I get voted in. He had a very "why not?" campaign, got himself into multiple players scopes early on and I feel like people are actively not discussing candidates for lynch. If there are a few people who are actual scum, distractions like endlessly swamping BC with point-less accusations about his claim, scum tend to not like talking about them. BC, if you vote for me, I'd prefer to have you as sheriff where you can mantain your protection while being ut under the microscope with your claim. That sounds reasonable, no? @meapak: I'm not reliable? lol please bro, I'm the most reliable person in this game. I'm readable and smart, and as mayor I can nail that one-time lynch, and then my votes will always be reliably placed. I HAD RESPONSIBILITY COMPLETELY UNDER MY THUMB... regardless of what my voting history said lol. You said this a while ago so, if you think I'm not good enough to be mayor just come out and say it cupcake. Who is still running? THREAD PRESCENCE PEOPLE. If I can't remember if you are running or not, then you might as well opt out. Any half-assed campaigns by townies are detrimental, because I'll take your ass to court in analysis if you said you were campaigning and coughed up empty in the useful department. | ||

"Hm, foolishness is a strong townie I hear, and I'm a mason, I wonder what I should do?" At this point, mattchew had not yet posted in the thread so he must have read this; On January 13 2012 14:36 Foolishness wrote: This is my official campaign post! It is all very simple! No, I am not running for office. My campaign is based around voting for the one and only Bill Murray! Let's face it, there are many people (L) who are going to run on the basis of lynching Bill Murray. Do we want to make such a rash decision this early in the game? Time has shown that such policy lynches are just a distraction from our true purpose of scum hunting. In order to save Bill Murray from such an easy day 1 lynch, I propose we save him by putting him in office. Now before you go on making propositions that I have just smoked a pound of weed, consider the situation our beloved Bill Murray is in. As his first game back, we know for sure he's going to be top notch. This is his chance to prove to the old members that he's changed and proved to the new members that he's a respectable player. Thus we can expect him to bust out his A+ game. He knows that if he nails a few mafia this game he'll have turned from village idiot into village hottie. Who would you rather have in office? Someone like Bill Murray who is probably spending 14 hours a day figuring out who is mafia or someone like kitaman27 or bumatlarge who will just put forth the same normal effort we'd expect from an elected official? Bill Murray is the real deal, and we know he'll be the real deal. Who knows how much effort Cyber_Cheese really wants to put in this game. Definitely not as much as Bill Murray will! A vote for Bill Murray is a vote for the town! Now what if our esteemed actor turns out to be mafia? Don't worry, as a proven scumhunter, I will dedicate enormous amounts of my time to making sure Bill Murray is indeed town. And he has a lot of games under his belt for comparison. Of course I will also be doing my usual scumhunting, so do not fret. But we can be sure that Bill Murray will be posting frequently (hopefully not too much) and will be active in his duties, especially given what I've said above. Is kitaman only going to make 2 posts a day if he gets elected in? Maybe. Will Bill Murray? No of course not. And we all know that the more someone posts the more likely their true colors show. If Bill Murray turns out to be mafia it shouldn't be long before it becomes obvious. If he's not, we got an easily confirmed innocent in office who at the very least will make the entire mafia team facepalm. And a mafia team with their palms on their faces will be unable to type. You can make the right choice! Vote Bill Murray! + Show Spoiler + Yes I'm 100% serious Mattchew: "Wow, he really is a solid townie! Look at how he backs a questionable candidate who has not even posted yet. He might be scum, or he's a really good town player" Now, if you had alot of experience with foolishness, I could perhaps understand, but if this is your reasoning as a person who has not played with him, your reasons for him as town suck. ERGO you must be trolling. | ||
