EPTMy latest game suffered from a lack of playtime, but now I *should* be able to devote more time
I'm still in the military, but now going through the last weeks, so we don't have much to do anymore. Let's hope this game starts reasonably fast.Paranoia Mafia

I've only played newbie games earlier (except GOT) so this ought to be quite a different experience. | ||

Looks like the thread is pretty active right away. That's a good start, since it means less focus on mere lurker bashing (something so easy to bandwagon behind). As long as everyone will enter the game in reasonable time, that is... Definitely hoping for that to happen. | ||

Trolling seems to be the norm. Somehow I just don't like making yourself artificially harder to read. It's kind of like a selfish metagame plan to confuse other players - not to help your team. What's the point in establishing yourself as a null read? Except denying meaningful information from scumhunting? | ||

So I am not really worried about you. What I AM worried about is town being all retarded and lynching the noobiest player day one (again, no offense) Haha, none taken. Indeed I'm one of the least experienced players here. And already with 2 votes Go me! | ||

IF I had to lynch one player right now, it would be DoYouHas. Why? In my earlier game with him (Game of Thrones) he was town and I was Mafia. In that game, he became our priority night kill quite fast: his tone was very decisive, he pushed the discussion forward and he was overall a threatening presence. In fact, his first guess at a Mafia member was correct. Now we arrive at the current game. Any way I look at it, his attitude is pretty different. First we have this post: On November 30 2012 08:25 DoYouHas wrote: Hi everyone, looking forward to an active game. It's nice to recognize many of the names on the playerlist even though I haven't played in a while. I'm happy to see Marv/BH/VE in here. With those 3 there is no reason the thread should be inactive. I'm perhaps overly cautious of Ace. His reputation obviously precedes him. Never having played with him paired with the knowledge that he can be a devastatingly effective scum leader makes me a little paranoid. As always, I am in favor of lurker lynching on day1 unless a better candidate shows up (which it inevitably will). This post reeks of vagueness and indecisiveness - the complete opposite of his earlier game. The meek tone of this post is also in contrast with his earlier aggressive playstyle. What's more, this is a completely "forgettable" post - the kind of post that Mafia love to open with. On November 30 2012 09:10 DoYouHas wrote: Well that is a suspicious way of responding to BH's vote. ##Vote Xatalos This post really bothers me. It *might* be trolling, but it seems more serious than the previous post by Blazinghand. Even so, it doesn't really offer anything more than "I'm jumping on a promising bandwagon just in case". This kind of half-hearted bandwagoning is something usually done by Mafia to appear "active" while keeping an easy escape route in case things go bad. In fact, I can already cast my vote based on this. If the lynch happened right now, he would be my choice. ##Vote DoYouHas | ||

With 3-4 games under his belt he may be one of the newest in the game, but I would not call him a complete noob. What I see are multiple posts that seem uncomfortable and uncertain. His attempt at making a joke out of BH's vote just seems awkward. Making light of confrontation is classic avoidance behavior, something that I think is more likely to be true because of the awkward phrasing. You could very well be right that this is just noob Xata being genuinely uncomfortable with the start of the game. But you are foolish if you dismiss such classically scummy behavior just because there is a different explanation. PS: I don't think you are going to like me very much given your advice to Xata. I spend quite a bit of time on my posts regardless of alignment. Ah, just my luck. A new post while I'm typing... I'm not sure if I get much of a read from this post. What I find weird is the focus on a *possibility* of a Mafia reasoning behind my posts, even though it's not much to go with, considering the equal/better reasons for them being townie. And why no actual reasoning for the vote until now? + That last statement is just unnecessarily defensive... | ||

Are you implying it's scummy that I haven't received that many votes despite being the "most suspected"? That if I were town, there would already be a big bandwagon on me? I don't think Mafia would risk jumping a bandwagon this uncertain, especially too early or with too much force. DYH's vote still seems bandwagony to me, though, given his (original) lack of reasoning behind it and overall half-hearted attitude. Right now I see DarthPunk, austinmcc and debears as the most likely townies. I would also include marvellosity, but something is bothering me. Probably it's the fact that his posts have been too vague/fluff to really contribute so far... Although I might be just extra careful, since he was my coach earlier. And WBG, why are you only asking questions? I can't say it's either townish or scummy, really, but I'd like to see your own opinions and reasoning instead of pushing the responsibility to others. Especially since it is a Mafia tactic I've used to focus on asking questions. | ||
