There goes my #1 suspect. Lying as town isn't cool.
That wasn't me, btw, despite the suspect timing. (I think OGML is just catching up on mod stuff.)
Oh, and jumping into the "what is day 1 for" debate: The ideal result of day 1 is lynching scum. The second-best result is to force the scum to play their hand in order to avoid being lynched, which generates good information for later in the game. The worst result is for a townie to do something blatantly scummy, so that everyone (town and scum) jumps on them, a townie is lynched, and no useful information is gained.#mafia@irc.globalgamers.net

"Only voting him for lurking." That makes it sound bad. Hey, let's see if I can apply that to some other situations.
"Some people are only voting him for vote-hopping."
"Some people are only voting him for lying."
"Some people are only voting him for claiming scum."
That actually works pretty well. I'll have to remember it for future use.#mafia@irc.globalgamers.net

I didn't feel like voting myself and then having to unvote when I made obviously protown posts.Thestatusquo wrote:It's especially unsatisfying because you were tied for lowest posts at that time, so you could have just as easily voted for yourself.

You have unrealistically high expectations for the accuracy of my voting methods. Throwing darts at a dartboard is my baseline.Thestatusquo wrote:That's not the point. The point is that your voting method is obviously flawed, due to the fact that it lists you as an equally likely scum candidate as the person you ended up voting for. Considering the fact that we've had about 15 pages of hard content, there has got to be a better method for voting than one which, if you're protown, is proven to be inaccurate to you.#mafia@irc.globalgamers.net

hasdgfas must be really worried about that dayvig to fish so blatantly. Self-aligned?
TSQ: you must think I'm really awesome to be able to reread the whole thread in an hour and 33 minutes (the time between when I replaced and when I voted).#mafia@irc.globalgamers.net

I would take that hypothetical "just as likely to make me vote town as scum" method. If I had it. Which I don't.Thestatusquo wrote:I say random because if he's town, then his method is obviously just as likely to make him vote town as scum, because he was at the same number of posts at time of vote.
Damnit TSQ, stop making me explain myself. How can I be gnomic if I keep having to explain myself? I'm going back to my mountaintop.#mafia@irc.globalgamers.net

Okay. I am completely baffled by how scotmany12 can think that "actively lurking" is scummy, and simultaneously believe that being active on the site but not posting at all is not scummy. It doesn't work. There's no set of consistent assumptions that leads to those conclusions. I smell rationalization.#mafia@irc.globalgamers.net

His general activeness means that his lack of posting here isn't because he's too busy, or has unexpected circumstances, or whatever. He's deliberately avoiding this game. That isnota null tell.#mafia@irc.globalgamers.net

Most people tend to concentrate their attacks on the people who are actually posting. It's kind of like the drunk looking for his keys under the lamppost because that's where the light is.#mafia@irc.globalgamers.net

Quick aside: I consider flaking without notice to be poor sportsmanship, and it will get you banned from all games I mod unless you have a good excuse. If you are active elsewhere on the site, you donothave a good excuse.
So yes, I may be letting personal feelings about lurkers influence me. But I think there's sound meta reasons to lynch lurkers, too.#mafia@irc.globalgamers.net

I'm not sure what else it could be. "He better have a damn good explanation for why he was absent, or else I'll give him a free pass"? "He better have a damn good explanation for why he was absent, or else we'll have tea and crumpets"?
Oh. I see. You think he might have the damn good explanation. I seriously doubt it.#mafia@irc.globalgamers.net

I look at it like this. There are places that are well-lit and hard to hide in (actively participating), and places that are dark and easy to hide in (lurking, active lurking, bandwagon hopping, etc.). The town needs to force the scum to play in the well-lit places. A meta that prevents lurking issam.samhorn wrote:Besides, intentional lurking on day one isn't a scumtell anyway.terrificfor the town.#mafia@irc.globalgamers.net
