How is this anti-town? The mafia want a townie lynched the first day, and they have a 7/9 chance of doing so. A no lynch on the first day is better than a no lynch later on.xvart wrote:

We also let the cop work his magic (if there is one). I'm not saying we have to not lynch anybody today (read my vote post) but lynching a townie is the same as no lynching two days in a row and letting the mafia kill two nights in a row. And this day we have the highest probability of lynching a townie.
Don't worry though about an early no lynch, if anybody jumped on my "no lynch" bandwagon I'd be the first to vote for them instead.-

I've played one game on another forum.
My early vote no lynch was really only meant to be in the spirit of a random vote. It was never seriously for no-lynch. But I stuck with it to spark a little discussion, if you will.
To be clear I don't support the no-lynch policy. It gives us only two more lynches in which we have to lynch at least one mafia, or we're screwed. However I do think we shouldn't hammer a bandwagon until we're relatively certain we're right, especially on Day 1 when the probability of error is so high.
That said,Vote Annachie
For being the only one not to disapprove of the no-lynch while mentioning it, and not having very much information in his posts. (This is based on only very circumstantial evidence, but is slightly better than a random vote in my eyes)-

Now that everyone's here, lets get this game moving.
First, I'd like to defend myself.
To address this issue better, here was my reasoning: It was RVS phase, but since I don't like random voting, I made a vote no-lynch in the spirit of the random vote. It's like I was voting for a 10th person. I was semi-surprised when I was called out on it, as my vote was not at all serious (read the posts).Dondero wrote: Now you seem to be dismissing this somewhat as a random vote:-
Or do you?Pyrogen wrote:My early vote no lynch was really only meant to be in the spirit of a random vote.Pyrogen wrote:I would vote randomly but that just seems unfair
So I set a little conversation trap, if you will, though I doubt it worked very well since few posted. That's why I'm voting Anna, and why I willFOS JustMefor not mentioning the no-lynch discussion in his first two votes (perhaps waiting to see if other town will go for no-lynch) and then nominating me as supicious for the no-lynch only after everyone vehemetly opposed it.
BTW, here is what I think the vote count on a person means this first day:
1- Slightly better than random possibility (2/9) you are scum
2- Suspicious looking
3- Pushing to hear some talk/lets lynch this guy
4- Explain yourself or die!
5- DIE SCUM
So if I had to give everyone this rating, I'd give Anna and JM one vote each. Everyone else seems town enough or hasn't really posted enough.-

Bandwagoning has its uses in extracting information. If we don't ever bandwagon we'd end up with a no-lynch day anyway.
But I think you misread my post Randal. If I was to place the second vote on you, I'm saying to you "I think you are suspicious". If I was to place the fourth vote on you, I'm saying "Explain yourself or Die!". That's what is meant by my ratings (It's what the town is saying to the lynchee).
In fact, I really don't see how you can logically think that ANYBODY would assume that the higher the number of votes on a person correlates to the more scummier and scummier they look. I fail to see how I could be considered a bandwagoner, especially since my previous posts warned we should take caution to lynching Day one. Did you miss that in your reread?
Moreso, you seem to perfectly understand my system on your next post. Yes, by having two votes on me, the town is effectively telling me that "I'm suspiscous looking". You understand it perfectly on that EBWOP.
Using false\misleading logic is a sign of scum. Apparently failing to understand a post is not a sign of scum, but if you post later perfectly understanding that post, that contradiction is a sign of scum.
Unvote
Vote DarthRandal
Personally I think you're at the level of 2-very suspiscious, but I only have one vote, so whatever.-

????
Why do people think my system refers to a scumtell? Did I not make it clear enough it's just why I would place the 1st or 2nd, etc or 5th vote on somebody?
If I think hes scum, I'll place the hammer (5-DIE SCUM)
If I think hes suspicious, I'll place the second vote.
In no way did I ever say that the number of votes = how scummy you looked. Which is why I jumped on Randal for putting those words in my post. However, if everyone else thinks my post was confusing, I'll retract it.
Did anyone else think my system meant the more votes -->(leads to) more scummy looking? I meant the more scummy --> more votes (at least by me).
I'd really like to know, otherwise this is just a communication problem, not Randal's misdirection, and I will unvote him.-

Yes and no, I'm not exactly fishing for answers from the votee, I'm scum hunting and seeing the responses from the community in general. This forum is much more slower than what I'm used too, and apparently I'm the most active poster, so yea, I get bored. Stating evidence or FOSing doesn't really give my posts the emphasis needed to stop people from lurking.Annachie wrote:Personally, and this is just an observation, it would be slightly easier if peopleunvote Playername
At least it would be for me lol
Pyrogen: Are you just casting votes and aspersions around to see what responses you get?

How about we start a bandwagon on me? Plenty of posts to go through and post what they think of my actions. Plenty of suspicion on me too.
This will also help me in my future play, in both cases of my being scum or town.
I reserve the right to defend myself though.
So:
Unvote: Randal
Vote: Pyrogen
OMG A Bandwagon! Talk!
.....
Yeah on second thought, I'm not that dumb.
Unvote: Pyrogen
Talk! Am I a suitable lynch today?-

I NEVER WANTED A NO LYNCH. When StarTransmission voted for fgads on the vote, do you think he was "strongly in favor of" lynching fgads? It was RVS and I made an RVS vote that was in the spirit of RVS but wasn't really random.DarthRandal1138 wrote:

I am not getting a bandwagon on me. I am getting people to look through my posts carefully and critically. They will realize my actions are not scum actions, thus preventing my mislynch.DarthRandal1138 wrote:
You've a funny way of showing it.Pyrogen wrote:(...)and I have no intentention of getting lynched.
That said, my point was that, if you're town, getting a bandwagon thrown on yourself is not "playing to win." If you are town, and we mislynch you, we (and by extension, you) could very well win, but the town would be giving up a lynch to help you evaluate your play (or whatever).
Your antics with the self-vote aren't scummyper se, but they *are* anti-town.-

While I don't necessarily subscribe to your system, I get that it could be a moderately decent barometer to judge (individually) others; however, I don't think it is effective for everyone, especially this early in the game because everyone is still getting a feeling for others and people voting to draw attention to someone.
For example, my vote for Annachie was not (necessarily) because I thought Annachie was scummy, but rather because Annachie had not yet posted; and once Anna posted, I removed my vote. So in that sense, your "system" was inaccurate and not effective.
xvart.
No duh, it doesn't apply in every case. My "system" isn't a system at all (I don't even remember who first suggested that). It is to show if I place my vote on a bandwagon, where I stand on that person and what I think that person should do.-

The problem with such a system is that you ignore the influence of scum votes. And trust me, there's going to be scum votes.
Fixed that for you. You either think someone is scummy or not. If he is, you vote. Vote count should not be your concern (unless its the hammer and then we only wait for a role claim. A role claim doesn't make anyone less suspicious either, but it might increase the cost of a mislynch.)[/quote]Pyrogen wrote:If I think hes suspicious, I'll place thesecondvote.
Come on are you saying that the first and third vote on someone are the same? When voting the third vote on some one it certainly means you have to be MORE suspicious of that guy then a first vote as it means A: you bring attention to yourself for bandwagoning and B: You are really bringing the heat on this guy and may possibly help create a mislynch of an innocent.
The hammer, sure you need to be cautious, but you likewise need to be cautious on the L-1 (4th vote) as well. If you vote the fourth and scum hammers, they just caused a mislynch and ended the days discussion. I'll use your words which you have so conviently forgotten for this point: You cannot ignore the influence of scum votes. As an IC you should recognize that not all votes are equal?
I think I've addressed this to Randal and Xvart.fhqwhgads wrote:

I would vote you but Hito is right, I suffer alot from OMGUSing everyone in both Mafia and IRL. I'm going to wait a couple hours to calm down a bit, reread your posts, and see if I still see scuminess, or if other TOWNIES recognize the scumminess in you. I may be wrong; I have been many times.-

Yes. There was a bandwagon. No. There was not a bandwagon. The quotes you refer to refer to different points in "time". Bandwagon comes, Bandwagon goes. Such is life. Your argument is like saying that the two statements "George Bush is president" and "Barack Obama is president", refering to two different points in time, must be contradictory?just me wrote:first you say there was no banwagon, then of course there was one?

I'll address this issue. I read posts that accuse me very carefully (moreso than others), and I find hints of scum more often then not in those posts for some reason. If the post seems scummy to me, twisting my words for example, I'll probably overreact, though it maybe the author simply misunderstood me or I misunderstood the author.Dondero wrote: Do I think you’re town or scum? I haven’t got the time to analyse all of your posts or responses, but I’m torn between disbelief that scum would be so brazen versus “the lady doth protest too much” Your posts seem to veer from rational and articulate to retaliatory and almost argumentative at times.
Also I have a bit of a temper, and I'm not used to being accused so much. I suppose playing more mafia will give me more poise in the future. I didn't find anything particularly scummy in your post, for example, so I haven't replied until now.-

No one really seems THAT scummy, but here is my list after a reread, based mostly on gut feelings:
From least suspicious to most:
xvart: Town, most likely
DRandal: Town, likely
Dondero - Neutral, but MIA (kinda town read on his few posts though)
Justme - Neutral. You'd think he'd wouldn't call werewolves mafia if he got a mafia pm (unless he's really tricky and that mall thing was a message to his partner, again very tricky[but WAY too obvious]). Still, posts little content and evades accusations.
hitogoroshi- neutral, doesn't sway me either way
Star-T - Neutral, no substantial posts.
fgads - Just seems too cautious to be town. Also acts more loose from his meta. Just a hunch really.
annachie - posts lack content, evades accusationAnnachie wrote:A random lynch also has the chance of taking out a power role, which combined with the mafia overnight kill, gives them a good chance of taking out 1 of them, and a small chance of both. (I point again to my first game where all 3 power roles were killed by the second 'night'
Why assume two power roles? You know there's a roleblocker, huh, and then noticed you screwed up?Annachie wrote:lol, forgot to include the number of power roles in my thinking. Kinda assumed 2 to match the 2 scum.-

Ok, the questions:
I think all three of our analysis are pretty close, so why do I need to comment? I also think that the WIFOM debate is no evidence either way, so why comment on it? And like I said before, I find Dondero a little bit town.startransmission wrote: Really? What do you make of my and xvarts analysis? You also haven't weighed in on hito and annachie's debate over the WIFOM that Dondero presented. Or the wagon against Dondero because of it.
And the "but I won't reveal them yet" is a cop out. Is this for the sake of conversation, yet again?
I've already posted my suspicions.
Meta isn't really a good strategy, but after reading them I was going on a gut feeling with my suspicions on fgads. Read them yourself, I don't consider it evidence. But if he's mafia, I have bragging rights on being the first to suspect him.
Also, I was extremely busy the last couple of weeks with midterms and such, but I should be pretty free now. Seems like everything has died down, eh?-

Annachie assumed only the possibility of two power roles. The only way there would be two power roles is if there was a roleblocker. This would be more likely if Annachie knew there was a roleblocker. I find it slightly suspicious Annachie only assumed one case, the dual power roles, perhaps to draw out possible power roles.-

If either of the first two setups are in play, and the situation occurs where the Goon is lynched first, the Roleblocker will still be able to submit both night kills and roleblocks (roleblocking is a function of the Roleblocker; night kills are a function of the scum team as a whole).
Obviously if there was a roleblocker, the case that there are no power roles would be optimum for her, which perhaps is why she worked with the assumption of the top case. I'lll freely admit I'm streching here, and this may amount to little or nothing. But at least I'm searching, unlike nearly everybody else who have seemingly taken a vow of silence.-

My statement reads, IF 2 power roles THEN Roleblocker.fhqwhgads wrote:Pyrogen, you said:
Let me repeat that again: The only way there would be two power roles is if there was a roleblocker.Pyrogen wrote:The only way there would be two power roles is if there was a roleblocker.
2 Power roles (if and only if) roleblocker.
Therefore if there is a roleblocker, there MUST be two power roles.
The above statement is wrong. (I'm not leaping to call it a lie though.)
Not IF Roleblocker THEN 2 power roles.
Is that so confusing?-

Meh. If I die, its no great loss. I think I've helped town pretty well, by providing material for the future.
I also find startransmission slightly suspicious, for I am the only person he seems to be scum hunting. He also finds me suspicious for being active then inactive, which feels like the pot calling the kettle black. He is perhaps one of the more inactive semi-lurkers in this game.
Hiro seems to be actively lurking, as evidenced by his post 34 minutes after being called out. That is also pretty scummy. Despite my gut feeling, I think Annachie is probably the most suspicious in terms of actual evidence, so:
/unvote fgads
/vote Annachie
Why? I find it strange how quick Annachie would put me at L-1. The reason he gives for his vote seems weak at best, and yet he is still willing to let someone quickly hammer me. He has been in my sights for quite some time, but the quick 4th vote on me confirms enough for me. Nevertheless, this can also be attributed to the time constraint, as he has mentioned.
I still think fgads behavior is too peculiar, and the fact that he is an IC is only a minor point. He seems to go out of his way to not be "offending" anyone, a cautious play, which I personally find scummy.
If I had to guess a scum pair, I would say its Annachie and Startransmission. Star-T makes little mention of the things going against Annachie, and focuses solely on me (and not others). He even says Annachie reads town to him (a post waaay back, true), which I find strange since many others do not get such a read on Annachie.-

Since I may lose the ability to post at any time, I also like to point out that I'm the easiest target for the scum to pick for a day 1 lynch, since I've put myself out there the most. Several town also find me suspicious, and such I'm an easy target.
It seems that most see me as town but acting anti-town. I do not find that a good reason to kill me though.
If and When I am proven innocent, it would behoove the townsfolk to search for scumminess in those that have targeted me. This statement only applies obviously when I am lynched (which right now can happen anytime).-
