Pray tell what the other ways are aside from RNGing using a, well, random number generator. there are definitely better ways to do it than one person posting a screenshot of a supposedly randomed number. we have no clue if that really was your first go around, or if you mashed the again button until you got a 3 so you could say 'hey lets get ace lol'. also, as was said above by both me and greymist, rng is stupid and doesn't provide town with any real advantage. 9 out of 11 times, the rng will land on a nonscum, so scum dont have do anything except vote and laugh. | ||

On June 11 2012 04:17 Palmar wrote: And I didn't think you were dumb enough to not understand why and how. These two posts are enough for me to throw a preliminary vote on Palmar. I don't understand why he is witholding the information of why he exactly thinks RNG is giving town a better chance, and I in fact disagree with him for reasons stated above. Caveat, of course, is I haven't fully read past page 8, and have skimmed the rest due to time constraints so this may change. ##Vote: Palmar Internets are down, posting from a friend's house. They should be fixed tomorrow so I can post more then. On the bright side, new keyboard! | ||

On the bright side, new keyboard! Hope that answers your question. Sorry I haven't been too active. On June 11 2012 18:19 Palmar wrote: @BrownBear, The information I withheld is crucial to the execution of the plan, as I explained above. You seem to be going after a pretty easy reason to lynch someone, is this because you're being lazy or cause you're scum? I hate plans that rely on "withholding information from town" because it casts doubt on the guy who's doing the withholding. Which would be you. It's great you have this awesome plan and all, but as far as I'm concerned, you could be scum trying to mislead the town, you could be a townie with good intentions but a shitty plan... any plan we take should be out in the open for people to discuss, dissect, and modify, because even the act of discussion around the plan forces scum players to come out into the open and argue against it (if it's a good plan) or for it (if it's a bad plan). The reason PMs aren't in this game is so that information stays in the thread. You're trying to keep us in the dark. For what reason? Also, you still haven't addressed the issues I have with the inherent shittiness of RNG lynches. If you did post about it and I missed it, could you enlighten me? Palmar, I get that you like to play aggressive and by your own rules, but everything you've done so far this game makes me suspicious of you. Not to mention you've insulted me directly several times. As far as I'm concerned you're a cancerous influence on this town, and we need to either lynch you, or decide that you're just frustrating townie and ignore you. | ||

On June 12 2012 05:17 gonzaw wrote: @BB: You've read the rest of the game right? What are your thoughts on grey, MZ, and Wiggles, and why would you want to lynch Palmar instead of those 3? Why do you find Palmar suspicious because of some stupid RNG thing? Why don't you look at the cases that have been brought up in the thread? You were the one that wanted to "spark discussion", yet now you are dampering it by continuing to argue about some useless RNG thing I'll change my vote to you until then: ##Unvote: Greymist ##Vote: BrownBear You see, I'm not dampering discussion. I'm pointing out that Palmar is. I'm not sure why you don't understand this. Let me throw up a few examples. On June 11 2012 06:14 Palmar wrote: Just for the record, I think MZ failed already and I'd be willing to lynch him. Piggybacking on Greymist's thoughts on RNG to express your own thoughts while making sure you're not the original argument for the idea is terrible. Let's do this. Post contributes nothing. Great, MZ "failed" by agreeing with Greymist? How about you explain some more exactly why and how he failed? How about you provide a logical, well constructed argument about why Greymist and MZ are "wrong" rather than just say "welp, they don't agree with me, they fail, LYNCH LYNCH LYNCH". On June 11 2012 19:34 Palmar wrote: you're all bad, inactive and boring. So instead of complaining about it, why don't you change it bro? On June 12 2012 01:42 Palmar wrote: I would have to re-read chaoser to form an opinion on him, Radfield has been fairly towny which is why I was annoyed at him for being thick. Too many people are just content with not doing anything though. "Thick" is not an accusation many would say about Radfield, particularly players who have actually played with him. There's a reason scum target him early on rather than let him play entire games. I think he's just as confused as I am - he wants to know your reasoning for supporting RNGs. I do too. Let's hear them? On June 12 2012 02:03 Palmar wrote: a) screw you for suggesting I'm not playing b) I'm perfectly aware what you were responding to, that doesn't make what I said untrue. This is the response of someone who's actually worried that they look like they aren't playing. If Palmar were playing and were secure in this fact, why wouldn't he just link to a bunch of his earlier posts where he was playing and contributing? That would be a much more airtight defense than a simple "screw you". Also, Palmar's too smart to mistake the volume of posts he's posted for actual, meaningful contribution. He's posted like 25 times: I count maybe 2 or 3 of those that are actually useful to town. This is a classic scum tactic (I used it in Mafia XXX, if you're curious) where volume makes a player look active, while clever words or subtle rehashes of earlier topics disguise the fact that none of the posts have much meaningful substance to them. On June 12 2012 03:45 Palmar wrote: When I say "there isn't a case on X" it means that I don't think there is a valid case to be put forth against that person. For example BrownBear and Ace, while both completely fucking useless so far in the game, neither has a valid case against him. That won't change even if some internet warrior writes a "case" on them. Direct attack on me and Ace aside, isn't the point of mafia to build cases on people? A weak case is still a case, saying it isn't is stifling town discussion. If you think a case is weak, rather than dismiss it out of hand, you should maybe point out the weaknesses in it or the holes in logic. This builds town cohesion and stronger cases. On June 12 2012 03:47 Palmar wrote: What is it that I should comment on? Can you stop being an asshole and acting as if I'm not playing the game wtf is this shit, I've commented on just about everyone and everything in the game, why do people keep saying I'm not playing. fuck off. Direct attack against another town player (gonzaw) trying to shut down a valid point: Palmar ISN'T PLAYING THIS GAME. He's trying to appear that he is, and he's trying to tie up town conversations he doesn't like by directly flaming the people making them, but he is not contributing anything meaningful of his own. Now, some people may say "oh, that's how Palmar plays lol" but that shouldn't be acceptable. Like I said earlier - his behavior is a cancer to the town. We need to either cut it out or ignore it. | ||

On June 12 2012 05:30 gonzaw wrote: Okay BrownBear you are clearly active, you know I'm leaving in a few minutes yet you refuse to answer or even defend yourself (most likely so then I leave, you keep lurking and the lynch is on MZ or something). It seems you are doing this on purpose. Everybody, I'd want you to switch your vote to BrownBear. His first posts were him discussing random fluff about the RNG deal; but again everybody did this. Then he posted this: He wanted to "spark some real discussion", yet he's been absent since then. Not only that, he wants to "spark some real discussion", yet now that he's active and real discussion did take place, he doesn't care about it and just dwells back on the RNG thing, failing to comment on anything else. Not only that, his FoS on Palmar is stupid as fuck. You don't base your D1 vote on someone's opinion on RNG/policy lynches/etc, specially if you have millions of things to take into account about said player, like Palmar's FoS and vote on MZ for instance. Yet BB completely fails to acknowledge Palmar's behaviour at all and just focuses on Palmar "withholding information about the benefits of RNG". Seriously? Again, he fails to comment on the Greymist or MZ issue at all; he only said that he wouldn't vote MZ because he agrees with me that the MZ lynch has no resistance at all. However he doesn't comment on it at all. Again, take notice how now he disappeared again. Please lynch him, at least if you guys don't want to lynch Wiggles, I prefer him getting lynched over Meapak Lynch BrownBear please Okay I'm leaving Seriously, you have no case on me other than "he tries to lynch Palmar w/out a case" which I have just put down. I'm sorry I tried to build a complete case against Palmar and wasn't able to finish it before you left. Hopefully you'll come back, read it, and understand. My vote stays on Palmar. | ||

Did you even bother to read my explanation? As I stated in that post, I could not find this so-called information. Either you've hidden it well, or it doesn't exist. On June 12 2012 05:21 Palmar wrote: If you did not understand it from my explanation, you're probably not going to get it. I explained pretty well why they're good, but only if people use their heads, which is rare. And it would take you maybe thirty fucking seconds to put it up in a quote, say "HERE IT IS BROWNBEAR, NOW SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP", and be done with it. You have not done this still. Either you're too stubborn to help other people play the game, or you are still vainly trying to hide the fact that no explanation exists. On June 12 2012 05:21 Palmar wrote: So you're fine with killing me even if I'm town cause you don't like how I play? I have only insulted you once when I called you "fucking useless so far", but for someone that just claimed to have been inactive due to out of game shit, I think it's a pretty fair portrayal. Or are you going to argue that you've been helpful? several times seems a bit dramatic.

Also, you can argue I've been less active and less helpful than others in the game, but there are ways to say it without using the words "pretty fucking useless". That's just needless flaming, hurts my feelings, and is unwelcome. | ||

He's usually pretty easy to figure out when he's scum so... dunnoh. I'm not sure about you as I haven't played with you enough to know the difference between your scum and town play, all I know is your scumplay is pretty good. I would be willing to lynch BB now though, but I prefer meapak. You're trolling everyone, contributing nothing, being incendiary, flaming, suppressing discussion, and getting insanely butthurt every time someone disagrees with you. And you wonder why people are yelling at you. | ||

I think palmar is playing a pretty good game actually (not trying to buddy), I think you're misrepresenting his actions BB. I'm assuming you read through my argument and don't agree with it, which is legit, I'll admit I'm a little annoyed right now. However, I'd like to see some reasons why you think I'm misrepresenting his actions. Also, Hesmyrr, the reasoning is because MZ has posted a couple times: On June 12 2012 04:21 Meapak_Ziphh wrote: I'm really digging an MZ lynch as well. It's really uniting the town right now and as everyone knows, a bandwagon lynch is the best lynch. and On June 12 2012 05:00 Meapak_Ziphh wrote: what the fuck? like nobody has voted. Should I hammer myself? This is when people are starting to say "hey there's no resistance to MZ this is bad guys". I know Palmar got the ball rolling on that, but it's kind of out of character for him to not tunnel someone to death. At the time I posted this, the only person who was still supporting the MZ lynch (albeit sarcastically) was MZ - everyone else was either not supporting it or just didn't care. | ||
