If they did that, they would get lynched the day after.

Rules for Finding Mafia

1. The first player to congratulate the doctor is scum or doctor (+20, +10)
2. Watch for WishyWashy voting (+10)
3. Third person on a wagon is likely to be mafia (+15)
4. Fourth person on a wagon is likely to be mafia (+10)
5. Admitting someone is a townie without saying "IF" (+10)
6. Mafia generally have more information than any other player, so the person who picks up on tells/hints easiest is more likely to be mafia (+10%; There are some notable exceptions and I always take experience into consideration).

Why not put your vote on one of us if you find us suspicious?

Where did that vote come from?

That's the third person you've voted for this game ...

Give reason for?

Tyfo · Post Post #47 (isolation #5) » Wed Dec 14, 2005 9:23 am

It just seems odd - to me - that the only thing he has said in the game so far is "My cpu is x reason". And he random voted; instantly changed it. and then voted this.

May just be that needs a reason for the action.

Insert I between that and needs ... and delete the s from need(s).

Hey; let's try this -

(And ofcourse; I believe and hope it's mafia - I took a risk and will deal with any consequences).

Hey; I am just demonstrating what fellow newbies should never do - someone had to do it.

I think that more often that not, it's the lurkers in these newbie games that we have to be wary of.

Hi, sorry for being gone.

At the moment - in my humble opinion - Passdog and Violent seems more scummy, but it could easily just me mathcam's post that is toying with my mind.

- Violent has not really given any thoughts why he is not scum, but the "scummy" posts of him could just be the newbiness most of us suffer from. He has not written enough for me to conclude anything.

- Passdog is confusing me. He could not be the cop as we (or I

) lynched him yesterday; and there are no way that there can be more than 1 cop in a newbie-game; he knows that we will lose if lynch wrong, but why so certain on Violent that - imho - has not posted enough for us to be certain.

We have to do something people; we can't no-lynch.

Tyfo · Post Post #96 (isolation #14) » Mon Jan 02, 2006 11:33 am

There has not been enough developement for me to contribute new thoughts. I'm still leaning towards you - Passdog - but I could be wrong.

For me, it's down to Passdog or Violent, as it have been for a while.

Passdog has some scumminess points for attacking someone I don't think is scum, especially since that person doesn't seem, well, let's just say loquatious, to defend himself. Brian has scumminess points for the exact same reason, and for being a big lurker-head all game.

Tyfo, while not lurking, seems to be quite content to sit back and let whomever be lynched. There's kind of a scummy nonchalance feeling about him.

Cam

The town will lose the game if we lynch the game. I'm just trying to actually be sure in what I do. Yes I accused over half the people in a post, but that was just sharing my thoughts.

However, you may be right on the Violent-thing - I'm beginning to recieve stronger "Okay, maybe it was new-to-the-game tactics" he played.

That leaves Passdog - as stated previously. I'm not sure about you yet, but the Passdog-thing is bigger.

Tyfo · Post Post #106 (isolation #16) » Thu Jan 05, 2006 7:39 am

We have to assume that one of the mafia is either Violent or BrianMcQuesco. Else they would have won by now.

I would like to hear from Violent again.

have to "leve you alone" if he thinks you're the most suspicious. Further, I don't think anyone here would feel stupid if we lynched you and you turned out not to be scum...just saying that you're not scum is hardly an effective way of convincing us. Finally, punctuation is your friend. I highly encourage you to use it.

Now, on to the game: I'm not sure what to make of the fact that only two people are suspected of being scum. I feel like more often than not in these situations, scum is sitting quietly in the background, laughing that noone suspects them. Case in point, it's (to me, at least) a near certainty that Passdog and Violent are not scum together. This means that, from my point of view, one of Pass/Violent is scum with one of Brian/Tyfo,
or
there's the extra possibly that Brian and Tyfo are scum together. From probabilities, therefore, Brian and Tyfo seem to make the better lynch candidates. Hmm.

Cam

And where are you placed in this conclusion?

If we take your views then;

Pass/Tyfo

- this is not an option either, as we could just speedlynch one of the voted and win the game (if the doctor was not being lucky (if there is one).
Pass/Brian
Violent/Tyfo

Violent/Brian

- we can almost certainly rule this out as they have both voted, and that would be unbeneficial for the scum at this time.
Brian/Tyfo

math/Tyfo

- see the reason for Pass/Tyfo
math/Brian

math/Pass

- see the reason for Pass/Tyfo
math/Violent

Why are you certain the combination of Passdog/Violent isn't there?

But, we have the following left:

Pass/Brian
Brian/Tyfo
Violent/Tyfo
math/Violent
math/Brian

Brian is possible in more combinations, but that doesn't mean that he is the sure scum - it is also possible that I have made some mistake down the road.

Hmm ...

We still need to single out one person for the day.

Tyfo · Post Post #113 (isolation #18) » Fri Jan 06, 2006 7:42 pm

Violent and Brian (the voters) would be in equally many combinations if I had added it. It sure does not help us that much ...

Tyfo · Post Post #131 (isolation #19) » Sun Jan 15, 2006 9:30 am

If Violent is scum, mathcam is scum; scum would be in bad position if they both had already voted for the same person.

But; I'm hoping this (crosses finger) will work;

Vote: Violent

He probably won't see it since he hasn't written a post since the 6th.
