Pull shit like you did in SNMMIV, where you essentially sabotaged the town by creating a horrible day 1 atmosphere and I will absolutely *relish* your death. I don't want to kill you, but if you threaten this towns chances at victory I will. Players who want to be trolls. Same applies to you, I will not allow it, period, not happening, not on my watch. We will win this, we will kill scum, and no one is going to keep that from happening as long as I have the power to impede it. Any questions? This is actually a pretty common tactic to spark discussion at the start of a game and is normally considered pro town in my experience. Preventing lurkers is nothing bad It just limits the number of options the Mafia has to escape lynching.

Its explained in Ver's town guide, but basically it means no mud flinging, no beating dead horses, avoiding unjustified OMGUS and generally behaving as gentlemen towards each other. If we do this we can generate and use information, it will also encourage newer posters to post. Thats the theory at least ^_^ To achieve this don't random FoS, treat even stupid ideas with respect (shoot them down, but theres no need to say "God you moron, you suck" just shoot it down) and behave in a way that makes people *want* to post and listen to what you have to say. Also that post you pointed out is also similar to my post in the first 4 min of Closed Casket Mafia . Its a stylistic choice, and I really like the pictures of the grim reaper (not to mention I have like 12 I had ready for CCM, but then I was killed... ;_;) . Plus I hate lurkers, and I needed a conversation starter, so I chose to talk about them. Any other questions? Once again mentioning lurkers to spark discussion while pointing to the Townie guides to try and help the newer players. Why would he give them help them and try to promote one of the easiest methods to scum hunt in. We also had him supporting the LSB mechanic abusing strategy which could of sparked the end of mafia pretty easily has RoL allowed it. One of the most important facts to consider in his pro town behavior. Finally I am going to bring up the List. While many people simply dismissed it as unimportant i Believe that it will be Crucial late game at working out which surviving "Veteran" players are still standing. And why. The Game will have these few veteran mafia alive at the end and we will come to need this list to hunt them down once we have lost our town veterans. Also not to mention every mafia would HATE being on the Vet list causing them to subtly attack GMarshal getting him lynched early enough to see them into the late game without anyone bringing it up again.

People I know to be experienced or good, people who are not quite vets, but have played before and know what they are doing and people who are new/have few games that showcase good play. Vets 3. GMarshal (Hi!) 10. youngminii (long time player, usually very aggressive) 15. Jackal58 (endgame player, you are familiar with him, for those not familiar with him, in my experience he is not the best day1-2 player, but really excels when we hit day 5-6) 19. sandroba (read Sleeper Cell if you need a good reason why he is on here) 23. Palmar (In particular his scum play in SNMMII) 25. ~OpZ~ (oldtimer as well, I'm not aware of what his last notable game, because it predates me. I also lack meta on him) 26. LSB (A decent player, as town or scum he comes up with decent plans and tries to lead the town. Prone to powerplays as scum) 27. Mr. Wiggles (another excellent player, he makes very compelling organized posts, but often comes off as scummy even when town since he tends to rehash a lot of what people have said. He plays a better than average game as scum, see his win with Kavdragon in Insane Mafia 2) Mid-tier players 1. DropBear - played some really solid games and is a strong player overall. He has no showings of singlehandedly dominating however, he may be misplaced here and be a candidate for Vet status. 2. sinani206 - played a couple games, not awful, but lacking a solid game to make a judgment of off 5. Cthsazsa - active contributing newbie, a little too trusting and willing to take people at their word. Much potential, interested to see where he goes. (Oh and I keep accidentally thinking he is a girl. Sorry -__-) 7. Kenpachi - likes to lurk, is good with a gun, but I have yet to see him play a game where he takes a solid leadership position 8. Lanaia - only seen her play in Insane Mafia 2 where she had a decent showing. Caught on to Kav's BS when the rest of the town missed it. She is really experienced on IRC mafia. 12. hiro protagonist - played a couple of games, did decently, I lack meta on him, as I don't think I've been in a game with him before. 13. Mig -same deal as hiro, no meta from me, played a few games. 14. Rean - Played more than hiro and mig, has a tendency to lurk (if PTP is a basis to judge on). Makes good calls in confusing situations 17. chaos13 - played a bunch here and away from here, but I lack meta on him 18. Eiii - experienced player who both lacks self confidence and has a tendency to lurk hardcore. 22. VisceraEyes -as hiro. Played a few games, nothing spectacular IIRC 24. Vain - as VE. 30. Varpulis - had a couple solid games, nothing massive, but solid. Hates lurkers, so a man after my own heart new players (no meta on these, obviously) 4. gtrsrs 6. aprudds 9. Torqez 11. Hyaach 16. TheAwesomeAll 20. Navillus 21. Sinani201 28. syllogism 29. Drazerk Again, my limited meta knowledge on these players and relative rankings. Please no one take offense as these are IMO. This is where we finish discussing vet lists. The won't give anymore useful information and will allow others to fake contribute with useless lists. I posted this by request and it should NOT be considered a contribution, as scum can do this as easily as town.Again, no more vet lists I no longer believe he is mafia and has displayed mainly Pro Town enthusiasm throughout the game, Lynching him would be a mistake when we have more scummy players lurking around. | ||

It's not activity we are looking at, it's much more about content. Why do you disagree with GM being Mafia? What do you mean by pro-town? Who are these better targets for day 1 you speak of? Sinani has been useless every game he has played why is he more useless/scummy this game? Look at his first game as mafia he attempted to fake contribute heavily to stay under the radar. I haven't really seen him do any of that. The better targets day 1 I think are guys like Jackal who aren't contributing and are playing out of character or someone like Eiii who promises to be pro town and contribute his thoughts then goes right back to lurking without actually providing any content.

In that case Jackal is townie, since he led a foolish day 1 lynch in the game i played with him as well. + Show Spoiler + Metagaming is all good but focus on my arguments please, he got SUPER defensive when i accused Hiro, auto voted for me, went from super aggressive to backing up in 2 posts flat, made his voice worthless by saying he was looking for my 'tic'. What do you think about that? No no active definitely does not just equal town, but I mean in general I would prefer to lynch someone less active day 1 because as long as GM is alive he is going to be active and so we are going to have a ton of information to use to determine whether he is town or mafia. Hm I do agree though that GM's case against you is incredibly weak. But I will wait to see how he follows up on it before instantly declaring him scum for it. I will say that If GM continues with just posting pro town advice and not any actual good analysis and scum hunting I would be willing to change my opinion about him. | ||

I'm telling players not to take lead because of this. I didn't say to kill leaders, I said to not become one. Dude this makes absolutely no sense to me at all. What's the point of saying "if Mafia is in control we are in trouble"? It's kind of..... blatantly obvious. This defence doesn't reduce my suspicions of you in the slightest. You still haven't said anything at all except reference your buddy and this wierdness. My vote is staying where it is. @ GMARSHAL On June 29 2011 02:41 GMarshal wrote: It wasn't OMGUS, as far as I'm concerned, he said "I'm keeping my eye on GM", but I voted for him because I felt like his post was 1.) Cynic and bashing our efforts thus far 2.) Weak as hell, he had an accusation of hiro, but no vote and about two lines of reasoning. Now I happen to agree with him, but I wanted to see him commit to voting hiro, to see how serious he is. Remember a mafia trait is to start wagons without committing to them. I wanted to see commitment. His reaction was interesting, but not damning, and he did vote for hiro, which assuaged some of my doubts, but I want to keep my vote on him till there is somewhere better to put it. Sorry I went to bed, any other questions? As for the person who said that promising analysis is scummy, its only scummy when you don't deliver, I will, its just I like to dedicate most of day 1 to information gathering. ^_^ (and TAA, I love smilies, I use them a lot. See experimental mafia II for other "cutesy" things I like, I'm very eccentric ) So what if he's cynical about what's been said? If you disagree then one needs to speak up. He hasn't just fucked shit up and left, he's been out there hunting like crazy. You wanted him to commit..... On June 28 2011 16:58 TheAwesomeAll wrote: ##Vote: hiro protagonist And he did.

Why are you so upset about my vote though? Its only one vote, and you *know* how I like to move my vote around day 1. Why aren't you bothered by any of the *other* votes in the thread? And lynching one of the most active players day 1 is as retarded as it gets, you lynch a mid tier activity player, one who is posting without calling attention to himself. | ||

Why do I always get lynched D1? Drazerk and Palmar both have crappy reasons for voting for me. DropBear is the only one that had a good reason but now he's tunneling. GM is obviously a better candidate. | ||

theAwesomeAll - You're doing a lot of weak FoS'ing and fingerpointing, but you are at least trying to come up with a case for each one. What I suggest you do is calm down a bit and really start analyzing those players and come up with a solid case, and for today just focus on one or two. However, you've shown that you are active and ready to share your thoughts, so I think you are most likely town. youngminii - I'm still not comfortable with you. Yes, you improved your FoS' slightly, but they're still flying all over the place and still targeting seemingly random players. I would give you the same advice I suggested to theAwesomAll. Get more evidence before you accuse someone. Sinani206 - Lots of fluff from you, little of substance. I would like to see more opinions from you on other players. All I can recall at the moment is discussion of lurkers/game mechanics and other safe topics. Jackal58 - He isn't as active as usual, but I felt that his one post was very pro-town. At the point he made it we had fallen into a mess discussing lurkers when that topic had already been resolved at the beginning of the game, and he stopped this. As town he loves making angry posts about how dumb town is being, and they almost always serve to get discussion back on track. One thing I feel needs to be mentioned: We have five different people with 1-2 votes each on them. This won't do us any good, since scum can support any one of those arguments and make a sly vote that won't put them in the spotlight. We need to keep our lynch candidates to a small number so that scum are pressured to make a decision. | ||

You know why that isnt scummy? Because they arent trying to blend in. They seems oblivious of the town, there is no way they are getting lynched, because they are town (or so they think) They have no fear and are two untamed lovers using every communication they got to express that.

Jackal has made a grand total of ONE post so far. How can you possibly make a behaviour call based on a single post? It's way too early to do that. You scare me Mr Mig! aprudds please reconsider your vote on TAA. He is being very overenthusiastic yes but there's very low chance he's mafia. He's prodding everyone he thinks is dodgy and is going out of his way to generate discussion. | ||

The reasons you give for currently voting on him are: 1: since I want to see you tick 2: Pointing out scum Of all people you should know that random finger pointing is not really a scumtell *coughkurumicough* and that there are better targets than TAA.

The fact that's it's only one vote is completely irrelevant Marshal. It's the reasoning behind it that worries me, it's pretty much non-existent. You continue to say "because I just feel hell good about him". You aren't stupid enough to make a claim like that if you are a DT and have checked him so you don't have any other reason to come out and say why.

Reactions, not from TAA alone (although his were revealing enough), but from people around him. Look for example at DB, he flipped out at my vote on TAA, when it was only a vote and was backed by a relatively weak accusation (I mean it was ok, but it wasn't anywhere near damning). Also look at the people (person) who chose to vote with me. What does endorsing such a weak case say about them? That said, I think I got as much out of that one vote as I can expect to, so its time for me to move onto people who I *actually* think deserve to be voted on.
