I hope there's going to be lots of lovecraftian themed dayposts!

When does this game start?

Really? That's suprising, this game setup seems HEAVILY invested in the cthulu mythos.

Just don't ever describe any of the monsters and use the word 'eldrich' and 'gruesome' a lot (like seriously, every third word or so) and you're basically Lovecraft already.

(I took a lovecraftian class last semester lol so I know all of his little quirks and tricks)

Ok I think I've figured out scum:

It's Eiii, Wiggles and Chaos13.

So we should start with lynching Wiggles IMO

stop reading things you want to read.


Okay, that doesn't make any sense, but I think I know what you mean.

I honestly think you slipped there. I think you're mafia or eldrich horror and posted a joke, not realizing what the joke revealed about yourself. The way you said it was far too casual to be purposeful and 'I'm discarding my win condition' has nothing to do with the humor in the joke and screams mafia.

When are we getting a voting thread? I want to make this vote official.

There are lots of gambits that scum can play by claiming psych, or killing the psych, etc. I don't think psych should claim at all until late game, and if he's killed we need to be very careful with our vigs and medics.

Oh no no no, lets not let this game devolve into an AFK fest like personality mafia. Lets discuss our lynch today.


I still want to lynch palmar. I think d1 is practically a freelynch and I think palmar slipped in his very first post. I am wondering what other people think about this.

If anyone else has a stronger read that can convince me I would lynch them instead, but for d1 lynch palmar is my vote.

I don't think he's acted any scummier than Palmar, but Palmar has a better excuse to lynch. Navillus said the sort of thing I said all the time when I was a newbie. Palmar said something that could either be a joke or a slip and I'm rating the chances of either at 50-50.

Ferryman, if you are new, then welcome to mafia! You have a bright future here, and if you're town mafia will probably want to hit you n1.

In this case though, I think you might be right but lynching palmar is a better move here. Sir Jesse Wiggles ESQ (duke of yorkshire) is a notoriously difficult person to read at the best of times because he plays so close to the chest, and I've written my share of analysis on him and been wrong every time.

That being said, your evidence makes a lot of sense, and if we don't have any other leads tomorrow I'd be totally happy gettin' wiggy wit' it. But right now, palmar is a better lynch because

A) His response to the FOS has been very scummy
B) The slip thing I mentioned earlier
C) It's day 1 so if I'm wrong, it's not THAT big of a deal.

Keep your eye on Wiggles and if you find anything else we'll act on it. For now though, Palmar is scummier than wiggles and I'd rather lynch him,

Just some advice: the first post you posted felt to me like more of a pressure post (ie it wasn't very convincing) but the second one (the meta one) was much more convincing (wiggles rather comprehensive response notwithstanding).

Okay, lets talk about Navillus and Palmar.

This is the reason why some people were suspecting Narvillus:

Dammit I need to role something more interesting than townie one of these days... anyway, I've never played a mini before so I'm very open to any mini-specific advice anyone has.

Which one of those seems scummier to you? To me, the second comment seems scummier by far.

Now, I'd be willing to believe that it was a joke if it wasn't for Palmar's response:

On August 24 2011 01:12 Palmar wrote:
Right.

This is not what happened. My win condition is to eliminate all threats to town. I did not slip, you're trying to manufacture evidence out of something that doesn't exist. My joke can't even be shrugged off as bad town play because nothing exists in it that would indicate I'm not town.


This is a very sullen, angry response. Rather than joke around with my pressure and OMGUS, like Narvillus's did:

On August 24 2011 01:29 Navillus wrote:
##Vote: Jackal58

OMGUS


Narvillus wasn't worried about the pressure because he was having fun and joking around; he knew he was innocent and he knew that jackal thought he was innocent. Meanwhile, Palmar's FIRST INSTINCT upon being accused was to lash out. his FIRST INSTINCT is to accuse me of manufacturing evidence. Is that a reasonable response? I sure don't think it is.

So that's my case for accusing palmar. You can find it convincing, or you can find it unconvincing, I'm not really concerned about it. Much of what I just outlined happened in my head unconciously and I'm sort of explaining my scumdar pings after the fact, if that makes any sense.


@ people saying I'm trying to avoid responsibility for a mislynch by saying 'its day 1, no biggie': That is not what I intended that comment to come across as at all. Lynching anyone (lynching ME) would bring us to the same point that a mislynch with palmar would. I'm saying that since it's day 1, the chances of us completely ruining our chances at winning the game by mislynching are extremely small (we'd have to hit the psychologist). I was specifically talking to ferryman, who, judging from the content of the post I was responding too, seemed to be placing an inordinate amount of importance on hitting scum day1 with a lynch.



Regarding our lynch today, if we aren't lynching Palmar I'd like to suggest Cyber_Cheese. This:

He mentioned something about a newbie mistake as coverup for Navillus, but that would be a newbie mistake for someone playing mafia more so than someone on town.


Is the stupidest reason I've ever seen anyone give for hopping on a wagon. If he thinks navillus is scum and I'm covering up for him, why wouldn't he just vote navillus? I'll tell you why: because a wagon is forming around me and he wants to hop on safely.

Whats more, he's done this several times already this game.

Because he was the first person to talk about being a townie.

If he feels the need to convince Jackal he's a townie, I think it's more likely that he's not actually a townie.

That's three wagons he's hopped on in less than a page of posts. Coincidentally, those are the only three wagons that have existed this game.

He also tries to cover up the fact that he's wagon hopping:

I never actually believed Palmar was anti-town, but there was an arguement against him and I didn't want to not lynch, so
