Actually, he just kind of asked us not to do pregame elections. He didn't say they were not allowed. Plus there's a little note advising people not to consider people running before the game starts as a perk, which means he's expecting people to do it anyway.

Crap I got up early expecting things to have gotten started and now I realize it says 10:30 PM and not 10:30 AM.

Oh well. Gotta sleep in more to make up for it.

Also please mark the times and dates that the voting period(s) end. I know it's on a set schedule but it's a lot easier if it's right there in bold on the post where the link takes you.

People keep mentioning that this is a veteran's game and it's making me nervous because it increases the pressure. What if the people in Pyrr's (mostly) newbie game play way better than we do? How embarrassing would that be?


So far we have Ver, Caller, and BC running for spots. BC has already voted for Ver and Ver has voted for Caller. It appears fishy to me for these people to have already voted for each other. BC's kind of makes sense since he's apparently trying to get second (which is also suspicious as others have pointed out) but I don't think there's anything too major here. Just something to consider for the future.

I would have protected you last game, Ace, if you weren't hit by some crazy vigilante. I just didn't think you needed it since you were under such suspicion at the time that the mafia would be crazy to hit you.


So far the thing I like most is what Ace said about Mynock. Everyone else's vote/opinion seems to be based on behavior from past games. If I just go by what people say about previous game accolades then there are way too many good candidates to choose from and really no way to distinguish between them, especially for me since I've only played in one previous game (though I've looked over a few other games).

What if a double lynch happens to two mafia members and one of them is the pardoner? Is the pardoner able to use his power to prevent the other lynch from happening even though he's getting lynched himself?


And I don't understand L's sentiment of "pressure wont' do fuck all." I thought pressure was the way to get the most information in just about any situation in this game. You evaluate both the person receiving the pressure as well as the person giving it.

From your description it sounds like there's no way a townie could use the pardoner's ability effectively.

Upon more thought, L is absolutely right about how the pardoner basically can't be used well on the town's side based on it's ability. All it does is make a mistake by the town only slightly better, and it may even make the situation even worse because the town will still probably want to kill the same person and now they'll want to kill the pardoner as well.

However, I still don't agree that pressure on the role doesn't matter. That's kind of like just trusting someone because they got the role and just hoping it works out.

L when you quote someone could you please leave in who you're quoting with the message? Sometimes you quote from the middle of a paragraph and it's annoying to go back and figure out where it came from. I don't wanna have to do that again if I decide to re-check all your posts.


I guess the question here is "to nemy or not to nemy." Despite everything that Ace has been saying, I do not think nemy is mafia or traitor. I also think it's better to keep people alive in this game than to get a "better player" into office.

Certainly some people are being more vocal than others right now, but there is a whole host of excellent players that can pick up the slack if the Mafia starts targeting vocal people.

This gives me a brilliant idea that's not actually brilliant! Let's vote in whoever has been the most inactive right now! No way any mafia member would be inactive for this long. It's foolproof!

Especially if the guy really is inactive for whatever reason. Then he'd get back to the game and be like: "What the hell???"

But then again if he really is inactive then he could actually be mafia too...

I honestly don't know how to do that. I've never done it in all my posting on TL as far as I know. If you can tell me how i can pull a quote out with the name and time attached I'd be grateful.


You uh, press the "quote" link on the right hand side at the top of the post.


Also, if you want to quote multiple people then press quote one of them, write your response, and then highlight the whole then then copy it. Go back, press quote on something else, then paste the whole first thing you did on that.

Or you can just observe the part in bold and just kind of fake it.

Okay look. I switched from NemY to Ace because I really felt NemY was legit even though Ace was making some really good posts about it.

Then NemY flat out says he got caught lying and I figure Ace is a good choice because he's basically been proven correct.

Now there's the idea that they BOTH might be red?

My mind is about to fucking explode.

I think Incog's post was referring to me.

Perhaps I was a little premature in voting for Ace but I certainly don't want to keep switching my vote constantly. I'll definitely think about it more, though. I've got six hours.

I personally want to hear more from Ver. It seems to me like he's just coasting into an elected spot at this point. (Unless he's very active behind the scenes right now.)

Ver disappeared (no feedback whatsoever, he's essentially running on his name alone now). Ace is always a solid vote (good player, and there's only 1/5 chance he's mafia to begin with even before the roles are given out). I'm active and trying to react to whatever comes up.


Oh man, please never say anything like this again. This was my reasoning for voting for Qatol in the last game and we all know how that turned out...

I don't understand why any bodyguards would roleclaim at all. What possible good would that do? The only reason that I can think of to roleclaim bodyguard is if you're under suspicion and you need the Mayor/Pardoner's help to not get lynched. But even then doing such a thing would look suspicious as hell to whoever you're roleclaiming to.

I'm going to look over the posts of the three dead and see what I can come up with. I expect everyone else to do the same too. I'm not forgetting what I learned from Camlito (and Qatol after the game) from the last game.

Speaking of which, I'd like to hear from Camlito this game.

Well Ocz in hindsight you were right all along. None of this would have ever happened if we had just elected you.

You guys are making this insanely difficult. So I'll just go over a few of my thoughts.

1: I don't believe any scenerio in which the BGs roleclaimed to anyone. Why would they do that? Neither of them needed any protection against lynches. Also roleclaiming absolutely wrecked us last game.

2: I also don't believe any scenerio where either Ace or Ver purposefully killed off both the bodyguards. Obviously this also goes along with point number 1: they wouldn't even know in the first place. But if for some reason they did know why would it be better to be a mafia with no protection rather than a mafia with protection?

3: Three blues is way beyond coincidence for me.


So, if either Ver or Ace are mafia then they killed off both bodyguards by accident. At this point I don't believe we should lynch either of them. I don't really trust Ver at this point but I also don't like the way Ace is going after him so hard. But I still trust Ace more right now.

I trust Ace more at this point because Ace hasn't done anything fishy in my opinion. I don't like the way he's going after Ver but I can't deny I've had some suspicions about Ver as well. Right now I suspect that Ace isn't mafia and is pushing that hard because of it. However, I'm still not convinced that Ver is mafia either.

Then we have L and BC complicating things even further. I've got to believe that at least one of the four are mafia.


I said that three BLUES are way beyond coincidence FOR ME. What I think is that someone has gotten themselves really close to powerful people behind the scenes and is using it to fish out really good information.

I want to hear from Ver before I decide on anything.

Hopefully he'll post by the time I wake up tomorrow. If not, I'm probably going to vote for him.

Well great. I really don't know what the fuck to think now. Thanks a lot everybody.

But I've got to follow through with the threat I made in my last post.
