Good afternoon fellow town and most disgustingest scum. This will be humble Superbia's semi-all-encompassing post® #1:

First on the agenda is... Complimenting the magnificent mod of this wonderful event. - The flavour text was exquisite. Good job!
Now, to more pressing matters. Since when did you do flavour meatpie? Don't get me wrong it's refreshing, but is it towny? I don't recall you doing it last game, although you were getting beaten quite hard (not by abuse) by almost everyone so I guess all you really had time for was defending yourself. Needless to say, I have my eyes on you.
lilwade, lilwade, wherefore art thou, lilwade?! On the mountain tonight? How can I follow you if there's no footprint to be seen?
Superbia! My name isn't evil at all. Hell is a Swedish surname and does not mean the counterpart of "heaven". Just fyi. I do however agree that abuse is bang out of order! We'll just have to wait and see what he's got to hit us with.
May I also suggest that we all give reads in Bang, Marry, Kill format? It's something I started on DailyMafia and will continue here, whether you like it or not ;D
1. This seems pretty fucking hard to go against a typical opening post. Especially weird since you later call out Barakos on his light push on my opening post. What's up Jenny? Not liking this, even though you know meat² and will probably look upon him differently than you would look upon others. -1

Jenny, you're looking as beautiful as you ever do, morning noon or night. But the evil and wicked ones have assumed the visage of our dearest ones. I will be looking into your heart to find where your true alignment lies.
1. One of the first posts, so I will not attribute too much scum to this, but trying to fixate on petty shit like flavour sounds like scummy garbage to me! What does this accomplish as town? -1

You just have to pick which one suits you best. Is it meatpouch or is it meatpurge? It's hard to say exactly what his towngame is, for me, because all that happened was that he was being harassed and had to defend himself. He wasn't very active during the day and I guess a lot of people wanted to go for the "safelynch" so to speak. Sadly enough he was one of the two wagons we had, and he sadly ended up being town. He was put in a very awkward situation with only a couple of hours to try to sway everyone elses votes. He tried to bring up some scummy things other people had done during the day, as his defense, which ended up with him looking as though he was defending both the people on the chopping block. I don't necessarily think, now afterwards, that it was truly intended but it is what it is. The other guy was lynched and in the night I went through the entire topic again and did some major calculations(1+1=2) and realized that way too many were going on him. He was probably town. I voiced my opinion and was killed during that first night. First mafia game, first to get killed by mafia.. Rudeness! I guess I have myself to blame for being too towny. Everyone read me town that game and I had 2 people who was ride or die with me. I'll let you know though, if anything out of the ordinary, based on what I've seen, shows up in meatpickle's posts. Just like I did with his sudden interest in flavouring it up.

1. Willingly gives insight into their last game. A person with a wider agenda (e.g. scum) may just have referred me to the thread. However, seems like an easy thing for scum to elaborate on regardless. +0.5
2. Being too towny is almost never a bad thing, in my opinion.

The bang marry kill works a bit like this: Bang - someone you think is town or leaning town, so you'd be willing to engage in a 1 time goodtime, giggity, and then they will have to keep prove themselves if they want to keep getting it. Marry - This is your number 1. Your top town, the one you are willing to go to the end with. Ofc, like irl you can apply for a divorce should a skeleton come out of the closet. But this is to signify who you want to align yourself with during the game. Kill - This one should be obv. Everyone who isn't a bang or a marry ends up in this category. If you want to can make a kill list of who should be dead first, and the others will have to lick your dirty boots to get back on your good side. Hopefully that will make people see now how I do it, and feel free to do it yourselves if you want to. Also, if you find someone you don't want to hookup with and also don't really feel like killing, I guess you could add a null area for those that do nothing for you. But try to not make that one too large, because it's really difficult for us other townies to discern those kinds of reads. Gobblegobblegobble, welcome my fair maiden. God will not save us here, we will have to take matters into our own hands and solve this puzzle the best way we know how! Kill people and search their pockets for wicked dust that have turned those ugly faces into a beautiful facade.
Good clarification, even though easy to do, still willing to clarify.

My thoughts so far aren't many, but here we go.
1. I hope for more activity! This is painfully slow. But I'm assuming it's odd hours at all places of the world so just hold on nor necessarily super tight, because it's not needed right now, and enjoy the sloooooooooooooooow snail ride to town victory!
2. meatpatty is currently being different than what you and I are used to, lilwade, based on the last game. So I'm keeping my eyes on him.
3. Barakos crashes in and slams a good one on superbia. However, I didn't really like it. I like that he's aware of what happened in the last newbie game, because it shows some sort of interest and effort in wanting enough pre-info to be able to read the game correctly. Which probably also mean he is willing to filter dive us all from previous games, and that can only be a good thing. Now to the fact that I didn't really like what he said. Superbia was first to post and the startups are always trolly and odd. He made a similar joke as someone else did last newbie game with me and DC being scummy because of our names. Low and behold, it's not something you can read anyone from. Therefore, I don't think that Barakos can nor should read too much in to #1 post made in day 1, nor should he focus on peoples forum handles being scummy. That said, I don't think he is, or at least hope he isn't. Time will tell!
4. Some of you have made me sing already which is lovely.. But let's not make this into a claim-fest because it may out good roles and help hide scum.
5. I also appreciated that Superbia came out and asked what a typical town read on meatpillow would be. I would suggest he filter dives meatpole's previous games to get a better knowledge himself.
1. Agree, but most people will openly agree with this, regardless of alignment. Isn't it easy to say "uhuh, more activity please!"?
2. Good.
3. Already commented on this at an earlier point in this post, scroll up! Also, someone made a joke very similar to mine? I'm a fraud.
4 (or 5?). Maybe at a later point, I'm expecting starting players to change up their game quite a bit over the course of multiple games (as will I, more than likely!).

I think town have the chance to win either way, if we play it out correctly. If it's a slow ride, then nothing much to do about it. We can't force people to talk.. Unless we treat them like we treated you, meatpizza, and look where that got us... I had you night 1 though.. I had you meatpimp! I tried to call the hounds off, but noone listened to me, even though I was killed.
You are correct though that it is easier to scum hunt if people are being active, because you have more to go from. The same way it's also easier to read people town that way.
Let's just hope the activity picks up. Who knows, we might be riding Turbo soon enough! (Sorry Disney for bringing in Pixar references!)
1. I like your confidence Jenny-chan, but I prefer relevant active activity from all people! We haven't had a lot of activity yet.
2. Scummy reference. Careful now!

I see people have taken note of my name already - which is lovely. Seems like timezones are quite an issue in this game, as the voting was very close and in the end the less fortunate time for me was voted in, and due to this the phases change at *drumroll* 4 am for me. Which is awesome [spoiler]not really[/spoiler] Hopefully the reason that a few people have not posted yet is the timezones, as it sucks quite hard if people have to be replaced early on due to inactivity..
I have read quite a lot through the previous newbie game, though not the first days (when Jenny was still alive). I might have to look more into it later.
I also want to note that I am usually quite vocal in my games and like to push people who I find suspicious. (Push hard if the regular pushes have no effect on getting a reaction from the person in question.)
I want to start this all off with a few simple questions for you guys -
What alignment did you get?(town or scum)
What were you hoping to get?
What do you think of the Lynch all Lurkers and Lynch all Liars policies?
1. Alright.
2. Keeping you to that promise!
3. Don't like this, feels like a preface for possible shitty (i.e. scummy) play. -0.5
4. Ooh! General questions that anyone can ask! I'll answer honestly, honestly!
I got the towniest townie of the town alignment! Good for me, because that's what I wanted as well!
I'm up for lynching any lurkers/inactives so we can tyrannically encourage activity!
I don't like to lynch all liars! Surely townies can get information by lying? I'm expecting townies to lie as well (though I never will, I vehemently promise!). That doesn't exclude lynching people for lying, it simply depends on what kind of lie it was.

I am town aligned and it was what i was hoping for. I don't think i would be a fan of Lynch all Lurkers as this is a newbie game and people such as myself find it hard to post unless questions are posed to them. (hopefully i can improve on this) I don't know where i stand on Lynch all liars though.

So there's been some activity while I was asleep and even though I mostly got some town vibes I'm a little weary about you JennyHell. You're being active a lot and that's great for reads but when you said that you were killed night 1 for being to towny I immediately thought why would he put himself out there so much once more. Wouldn't he be a little more lurky at least day one? (not necessarily completely silent but it's undeniable that the attention is on you right now). Maybe it's just my inexperience with forum mafia speaking but I'm not sure how comfortable I am with the disproportion between how much you've spoken and how many reads you gave. Three if you count the Superbia appreciation but I don't think I see that as a solid read.
You did give mostly your scum reads which I think as mafia you would have tried to get people to like you instead of pressing them so that's why you're still in my princess circle.I do want to hear from you day 2 because I feel like if you are town you are being a valuable princess to have and if you are mafia it's good that you talk a lot so we can see the wickedness inside your heart. As think as the day goes on we can find better lynches.
I did like Superbia's inquiry in regards to meatpalm's playstyle and by extension I didn't like Barakos attacking him. It's still pretty early in the day and my reads right now haven't got much heft to them. I'm looking forward to see more people talk though.
1. Alright, I want to address this: being lynched as VT is not a bad thing, it means you've kept the heat off of the town role. No such thing as too townie (though I guess it can depend on your playstyle). Please keep being active and (quite possibly) townie, Jenny!
Furthermore, not sure what to think of this read. It raises a few flags, which I will elaborate on if these damn flags keep showing their flaggy scumfaces! -0.5
2. She didn't scum-read a lot from what I can tell. just a push on meatloaf for something most possibly benign. I do agree with the rest of the post, however.
3. Baaaah!
On August 26 2014 16:51 JennyHell wrote: Hello darling, I see you've come in and hit us with some questions. I will approach those soon enough, but let me start with punching you back.
You said you've read quite a lot of the previous newbie game, but not the first days. Was it someone in particular you were trying to get info on by doing that? Because only 3 of the people from the previous game is currently playing and if you say "Not the first days" dayS, means more than 1 right? I died n1, and meatpicture was lynched d2, so the only one you could possibly have seen that might be benificial for this game is lilwade.
I'd defo urge you to read day 1 and 2 as well, otherwise your dive into the previous game is almost completely fruitless. Just fyi.
Now to your questions, although I can see why someone would make such a play, I'm not a huge fan of it. Too easy for scum to hide. But I'll indulge you. Else you might just hit me again.
I am top town, yay me!
Couldn't care less if I was mafia or town. I like the game in general and don't care which side of the spectrum I am on.
The policies all depend on who fall under those categories. I prefer to try to read people based on what they have given, rather than come out of the bat and just get rid of the stragglers. Some people are bound to do less than others, and it's not necessarily indicative of either a mafia or town alignment.
Killing all liars? You know it's a game of lies a deceit right? And there might be moments where town will have to go out of their way and say things that may not be 100% truthful, in order to save their asses from people being wrong, yeah? Or mafia pushing on them and getting town on the wrong path.
I hope that gave you the insight you were looking for. Again, just to remind you, read day 1 and 2 in the last newbie game.
I like this post!
1. There's a lot of focus on a mafia game that isn't this one! I'm not sure how good this is. How nice of you to direct the abuser to the correct days, though! Very gentleprincessly. +0.5
2. Alright.
3. Most agreeing of agreements.

Was hoping to get a power roll of some sort because sometimes defending yourself as vanilla town can be very frustrating when you don't convince people that have gotten fixated on you.
I don't like lynch all lurkers, I prefer don't play with the lurker next game. Some times especially in newbie games vt will lurk and mislynching is not worth it just to be righteous.
As to lynch all liars, i do like it when for example when people claim roles to protect the real ones but those are very rare occasions so even though i wouldn't bilindly lynch a liar I sure would keep an eye on him and have him in my scum side.
I'll have to go now for up to 5 hours but I will resume as soon as i get back home.
1. Nothing is better than anything! Or wait! No! Anything is better than nothing! Right?! (Let the princess do his thing, the more interactions the better!)
2. And here I thought I was prideful! Wanting a power role so it's easier not to die during lynches. Preface for garbage excuse during said lynch? -0.5
3. Alright.
4. 85.7% agreement!

What do you think of the Lynch all Lurkers and Lynch all Liars policies?
Firstly, I am very wary of those who ask general questions, without providing their own answers first. Same goes for Jenny's MBK list, although I think it's way too early for that. At this point I think anyone could be a wicked one, and I'm not about to start trusting a single person until the day goes on.
Of Lynch all Lurkers, this has been invoked on me a couple of times so I have mixed feelings about it. It stands to reason that if there is no solid lynch candidate, to target a lurker on policy. It's always better to try and lynch a wicked one though. The greatest purpose of this policy is to make the scum fearful of lurking.
Lynch all Liars I don't believe in. In my experience, scum have been very careful about what they say to avoid lies and contradictions. Townsfolk will change their reads when they realise they've been tricked. It's a very townie trait to be changing it up as the day goes on. On the other hand, it's important to watch the MBK lists especially from D2 onwards. If you see someone giving a marry or a kill without good reason, chances are they are scum. Votes are the most important thing, if someone votes for a princess who's not on their kill list, be worried.

No harm Jenny, you played a good game.

3. Partial agreement! I don't completely agree with having a public good reason for everyone on the MBK (on a note, I will not use this flavour myself). You might want to obscure your reasons so the person in question does not know what his or her tell is.
Can you be a bit more proactive?

I did not dive into them, I just followed the game as it happened(started following when it was about mid-way), when I wanted to find out how does mafia even happen in a forum environment. I will definitely read the first two days later.

you'd be surprised what you can get from these questions.
Just to be clear - I am a supporter of Lynch all Liars and Lynch all Lurkers, if I do not have a clear scumread on someone by the time it's time to vote. In my mind, there is no real time when a townie lying would benefit town, so I would urge you not to do so, because if I catch you, I will push you. And chances are you will be scum when you flip afterwards. I have also recently played with a very annoying lurker, who just deflected all questions and did not really give any information at all to town. Behavior like this will also be pushed HARD.
Hopefully we get a good town atmosphere going where everyone is open about their thoughts and reads so scum has nowhere to hide. Have fun peeps~
1. Promises, promises.
2. No. Though pushing on this would be your prerogative.
3. Cool.
4. This seems pretty weak in comparison with the earlier part of your post. First you say what you are going to do to liars and lurkers, fair enough. But instead of keeping your post strong and giving possible reads, you then spout some garbage about how you're hoping that everyone will be open and give reads. I'm expecting you to stay strong and give some reads yourself instead of this hopeful garbage.

As for the policies, I have explained my stance a little above. You seem to have a bit little different view on the lynch all liars policy. How I see is, if you get caught lying - not explain it yourself, beforehand, and why you are changing your mind, then it is scummy and you deserve a lynch. Town does not have a reason to lie, without a reason (if you catch my drift). If a lie like that is caught, then this policy would take effect.
There is no reason to have this policy. If the lie is alignment indicative, you should be able to make a case strong enough. There is no need to restrict the town with these garbage rules.

How many reads do you honestly think is appropriate this early in to the game? How many do you think you could possibly give? No, not at all. When i said that you had given plenty of reads for how early it was. The disproportion stemmed from the multitude and length of posts and not from too few reads. Again, this is a minor thing though.
What I would like to see is more from lilwade though. He may be asleep right now because I see he lives in the us but I'm interested in the fact that he asked for reads but ultimately did not contribute. I see that as a little scummy as if he's testing the waters with his toe before putting himself at all in the spotlight. I'll wait 10-12 more hours before I form an opinion based on being lurky. Daydreamarine is in the same boat.
In regards to the kill, bang, marry thing I think i'm in a bang jennyhell spot because I liked your reads and because I think you would have been more reluctant to take the microphone so hard day 1 had you been mafia. I'm too young to get married though.
1. Meh.
2. Alright. Decent, directed reads.
3. You want to bang the only female in the thread? Being sexist is scummy!

Hi!

I liked the irony and wanted to point it out, because I found it funny. I may be new to forummafia but i wouldn't go as far as calling people scum because of their names. I also could have added some smileys to make the intention behind the post a bit clearer. For what it's worth: 'Barakos' is a name I took out of a Warhammer Fantasy Battlereport, where the author named his Strigoi-Vampirecount 'Barakos' and i've been using the name ever since, so if you want a 'scummy' name... there you got it.
Hope, that will be all, there is left to say about the name-discussion... now for the important stuff:
On Jenny: I think Jenny is playing very similar to the last Newbie-Mafia and trys to get the thread going / is very vocal, so seeing that she was town the last game, I read her as town for now, although i am not very sure, since she stated herself:

On Abuse: I didn't like you posting questions before answering them yourself... especially the ones, where you ask for the opinions on lurker- and liar-lynches.. It looks to me, as if you were trying to get yourselft the permission to lurk for a while... granted: you answered your questions when you were asked, still I found this a bit odd and will keep an eye on you.
And to answer your questions:
My alignment is town, but i kinda hoped i would roll mafia. I absolutely hate playing in the dark, so i would have loved to know, who is friend and who is foe. Now i will have to trust my instincts... god help us all!
Lynching a liar is something that is very situation-dependend... like "Did the person lie to protect a powerrole at night?" vs. "Did sb. fakeclaim a powerrole at daytime to get the real powerrole lynched?".
Lynching the lurkers is something I would only resort to, if I had no better scumread on anybody else, since I think it is a quite weak motiv to lynch somebody and chances are high, the lynchee will flip town. That being said: this is my first forumgame, so I haven't really met any really annoying lurkers. Let's just hope, everybody is active in this game, so we can get solid reads.
On the other ones, that have posted so far: There is not much I can read out of your posts so far... mostly due to the fact, that there aren't that many posts to read from.
1. Lore!
2. 87.31% agreement!
3. Alright.
4. Let us clasp hands, dear vampire who's name is Barakos! I shall lead you through the darkness! Though.. don't vampires have darkvision? Gotcha, scum!
5. I have agreed too many times already.
6. Alright.
7. Alright.
On August 26 2014 23:31 abuse wrote:My reason for asking about lynching liars and lurkers served 3 purposes.
1) to get your thoughts out, so people can have a peek into each others brains a little 2) to make sure people were on the same end of the stick as me, when it comes to what constitues a "liar" and what constitues a "lurker". One of the things being - I don't mind lurkers as much if they are just inactive. I do on the other half mind a lurker that is being called out but keeps ignoring questions. I have had this happen in another game and it is very annoying and I will not tolerate this. 3) See how people react to the policies, as well as what alignments would they prefer to play. While it seems like it does not matter, since you can lie easily about what alignment you would want to play, I have found that knowing this information helps you paint a picture of a player.(for example, compare your answer of the first question to MihZaaa) Later down the game you can use this as a tool to see if they match it or not.
I really do not have a problem with answering these questions myself, but how often do you really see people asking questions to others while answering them themselves at first? It also served a double purpose, to see who would call me out on it and how soon would it happen. Happened pretty soon, which is good.
Is everyone else really sleeping at the moment? we have only done 2 pages of in-game content in the first... many hours, and the previous newbie game had 30 pages in 1 day, let's step it up! All in all @Barakos, I like what you're saying. Hopefully this level of openness will stick to everyone here.
1. This is too early. Not everyone has answered yet, why reveal this already?
2. Fair, but answer the questions.
3. Alright.
Where the fuck is the promised day 1-2 read from the previous game?!

[u]I feel like that question has more use in a less controlled environment like irl Mafia. Right now it generated answers like "My alignment is town" and I'm vt. Not much to go off. I do like the second question a lot more though. It still feels a bit like focusing on others so you can throw scum on townies that maybe aren't being seen as town yet rather than a genuine gathering of information with the purpose of finding mafia. [u]In regards to your answers to your own question. Like, I said I also like being a power role and I said why but you explicitly mentioned that you want it to be a town power role. Can you elaborate why you prefer town power roles. I like a lot that Barakos logged in from work to pitch in. I think it's less likely that mafia would bother to do that especially when nobody is being put on the spot right now which is when you will see mafia push on them more and be active.I feel like things will pick up a bit as soon as we can start to get a read on lilwade and daydreamarine as well.
1. Anything is better than nothing, still.
2. Decent push.
3. Meh, that kind of thing can never be confirmed.
Alright, I'm ready to make a small town circle and mafia circle already!
I would like to welcome the follow people to my town circle: - JennyHell - Barakos
I would like to lynch the following people: - Breshke - abuse (borderline)
Also, I would like to see the following:
Everyone: Town circle with at least 1 person. Mafia circle with at least 1 person.
daydreamarine: SOMETHING SUBSTANTIAL
lilwade: SOMETHING SUBSTANTIAL
gobbledydook: SOMETHING SUBSTANTIAL
Breshke: Your promised reads.
abuse: Your promised previous game read.
That being said, let's get this ball rolling!
##Vote: Breshke
Bresh, so far all you've given is excuses and a promise of reads. Bresh, I want to see your opinions and I want to see you being proactive. Specifically, what is your opinion on MihZaaa and Barakos?
