This is how I feel: + Show Spoiler +

There aren't many of us we can trust. But you can trust me. I am Blazinghand. I am new. I am bonifaceviii the 2nd, bonifacieix, if you would.
I've read the whole thread. Yes, the whole thread. Assuming we popped all our vigis, lurker vigis, and mad hatters, we have very little breathing room. Apparently, we may even have 0 breathing room.
Even so, we must press on, for Justice demands it, in all of her glory and all of her horror.

On December 02 2011 13:02 wherebugsgo wrote: I'm leaving this thread until I have a good reason to come back, since there's nothing left I can say that will change the pace of the game right now. We gain no new information by lynching Ciryandor and Kenpachi, or any two of the more-or-less confirmed scum at this point. 3 days with no real information, 3 days where the scum we haven't yet caught can slip by looking more town-like. We mess up once and this game is over. Yet, we can't actually do anything anymore to ensure that we don't slip.
I'd like to play toward my win con but even mathematically this is nearly impossible.
Nearly impossible isn't the same as impossible-- we still have an opportunity for luck via a Mad Hatter or something similar.
We lost 1x DT, 2x Lurk Vig, 1x Vet, 1x BG, but we also got rid of a Miller-- this may mean there's only one left, or zero left?? Given that two died in the first day No Hatters have died, and we have enough solid scum leads that we're unlikely to mess up in the next day or two, assuming most Town players vote together.
At the very least, we should try to find out what we can about who's mafia and who's not. Rather notably, there's a lot of room for us to be lucky. We've still got n medic/rolebockers, so even though we lack KP, we may be able to mitigate some of theirs.
Also, WBG, we need you. If there's any way out of this, it's via excellent analysis and argumentation. I've seen you pull rabbits out of glass hats. Your withdrawal means either you're Towne affiliated and have resigned yourself to a day of bandwagon without legitimate discussion, or your Mafia affiliated and are trying to step out of the spotlight.
First Order of Business: Voteswitchers need to die. This is our best bet to catch mafia, and it would be a travesty not to vote for them. Non-voteswitch Mafia will be bussing, and those who are already caught will just try to cause mischief. Don't listen to them. Actions speak louder than words, and these people have spoken via their vote, speaking "i am a mafia please kill me". Accurately.
##Vote: Kenpachi ##Vote: Ciryandor
Obvious scum is obvious.
Second Order of Business: WBG is a solid analyst. Medics should be on him like white on rice, because our Sheriff can't prot him twice in a row. Ideally, we want to force the Mafia to burn every bullet they have for the night on him, or not attack him at all. WBG has been remarkably consistent, and despite his occasional mistakes, has been trying to help the discussion and generally acting Town. We need him. Failing that, we can "get lucky" with several medic prots on him cancelling some mafia shots and adding to the number of turns we have alive, even if he falls.
P.S.: Soap wtf are you doing. Please explain your votes that aren't Ken/Ciry.

And by this I mean, Intrigue, It seems you're voting for V7 and Ciry right now. Why V7 and not Kenpachi? Granted, V7 is certainly skum, but I'd rather we consolidate our votes to reduce the liability of someone else getting lynched. We can do V7 tmr imo

Sorry that I'm completely demoralized. But playing LoL helps my heart hurt less ^^
Yeah. Man WBG you're smooth as butter. I'm glad you're playing hella towne. WE NEED YOU MAN.
I mean, I get why you're demoralized. I guess the big thing is, what should we do now? Try to engage scum and force slipups? Run some filters on specific people? Point me at someone plz.

mcht (becomes marserblood) verdict: terrible townie He makes three posts total.
On November 24 2011 23:05 mcht wrote:hey guys, first game of mafia ever i think palmar is right about us having to do the first step/taking the first risk, if we just wait or dont trust anyone scum will win for sure, ignoring all posts he is 80% town, so if our chances of winning with palmar as town and everbody trusting him are better than 5:3 we're ok even if he wins everytime he is mafia, would that be realistic ? especially in the beginning i think you can never be 100% sure about someone but the worst thing for town is to get stuck in only accusations flying around because someone could be mafia. yeah everybody could be, that's the essence of this game but at some points in the game a rational portion of trust is required for town to win in my opinion, i read some games and saw a lot of townies ripping each other apart over semantics etc so im voting palmar, he seems to be pretty active and operates on logic, not spouting too much nonsense :D you should probably not rely on my analysis since it could be majorly flawed xD First post is wishwash, dodging, noncommmital, claiming on analysis is flawed.

Normally, I'd say this is scum. However, it was his first game, and he literally posted all his game posts in the span of 20 minutes before leaving, never to be seen again. He's just terrible and never played before. When he comes back as MarserBlood he makes this post:

So Do I, and yet you don't see me giving the mafia a goddamn chance by taking votes away form the two frontrunners who are obvious scum. get in line-- we'll get to steveling, but not today. Don't risk it all.

So your reasoning for your Steveling vote is "well, we're not gonna lynch him today, but i just want my vote to have no chance of being useful"?
Obviously not. i am putting words in your mouth. I'd rather YOU put words in your mouth. please explain how your steveling vote is helpful (not correct, btu helpful)

WBG: I see you're voting for V7 and K-pac. Consider moving your V7 vote to Ciry so we can consolidate onto unassailable lynches. In fact, please do so. V7 won't be lynched today so let's focus on K-pac and Ciry

Do not vote to accept the draw. If the mafia are offering it, it's because they're worried. Otherwise they'd wait until we lynch a townie and crush us.

Worthless posts. Note how he's trying to appear helpful without actually adding anything to the discussion. WBG and Palmer call him out for this. WBG mostly says he's a useless lurker.

If I do stupid shit mafia would rather have me alive. Excuses, no commitment, and most of all, no real attempts to do anything useful.
And then, he's silent for a couple of days, before the "lol everyone swap votes at the last minute" debacle. He did not swap votes at the last minute, but he voted ahead of time, and this was he votes for Risen and WBG, 3 hours before deadline. He made no posts in the discussion thread at this point. In the aftermath of the voteswitch...

How did the tie between BC and zeks was broken?
So let's think about this for a moment. Worthless, spam votes hidden in 3rd and 4th-placing people. Complete lack of any attempt at discussion. Explaining his "internet outage" as the reason for his voting pattern, WHILE AT THE SAME TIME ADMITTING HE WAS PLANNING ON A LAST MINUTE VOTE CHANGE...
One more thing. Soap's internet was not broken on the night of Wednesday, November the 30th. No, not at all. If it was, it must have been broken for a very narrow timeframe.
It was working the night before at 8 pm:
On November 30 2011 08:42 Soap wrote:I unvoted Hier, not wbg ##Unvote: Ace ##Vote: Risen And it was working on the December 1st at 3 am:
What this indicates to me is that Soap's internet was working just fine. Why's that? Look at his post. This isn't a "I literally just logged in and wrote this" post. This is a "I was doing something, found a link that was broken, and decided to write about it over here" post. Soap, my friends, was active and online that night. If, in fact, Soap's internet was broken, it was broken for an extremely short period of time-- starting sometime within a couple hours before the deadline and stretching until just after.
After being, well, characteristically helpful, Soap returns to the thread:

I first voted sandroba for mayor because Palmar pushed him and that would be stupid if he was scum, then I got fed up with the shallow campaigns and voted sinani for the lulz. Then wbg took over the thread with mostly lists and OMGUS (spammer = scum amirite?) but noone else seemed to bother so I grew disinterested in posting, but I've been following closely.
Pleask ask if there's something else I could fill.

Soap is either scum and trying to subvert our vote, or lying about having read the thread, or he'd be voting the way everyone else is. HE claims that he's been voting "for the lulz" and that he's lurking, and that those of us who contribute are scum and he is silent because he's not.
I don't buy it. My body is not a sturdy cardboard cylinder. My head is not made out of hard, sweetened candy.
I am not a sucker.
Soap is scum.
