Newbie 939 - Game Over

[Pmac]

No, its just because you're reacting really stupidly to this... Get used to it, every single one of us will be accused of being mafia till the end of the game. I also check this every 5 minutes, and yeah, it caused a big discussion on my last game.

[FC Groningen]

It sort off looks like Gandalf is hiding behind the IC huh?

This looks a bit finger-pointing ( where a scum tries to direct lynching attention towards a townie without assuming responsibility of an accusor )
--> a small scumtell.

hmm, maybe if I was the only one to point it out and others didn't share my opinion on this matter. I also think its justified if he phrases it in such a way.

Apart from that, don't worry, I don't think anyone wants to push for a lynch yet. Also want Slaine respond to the FOS for example.

[gandalf5166]

Slaine has only said one thing so far...... Good mafia stay pretty quiet.....

[FC Groningen]

Based on what you posted back on page 2, I don't think you'd be able to stay quiet in case you were scum.

Also, don't try to point fingers too obviously. Its still too early to push for a lynch yet anyway.

[gandalf5166]

That's true. I don't think I would be a good mafia... I don't know, as I've never been mafia.

[Pmac]

I think good mafia can also be someone who talks a lot, but knows what to say.
I dont think activity is an indicator of scum.

[gandalf5166]

I'm just saying, you're less likely to attract attention if you stay quiet, so good mafia stay quiet.

9 alive, 5 to lynch.

[Pulindar]

I completely agree with Pmac. A good scum can talk alot, or can lurk alot. heck even a VI role can work as town don't like policy lynches that much. The point of being scum is to play a townie game, hunt scum as much as you can in whatever way you normally do, and then just roll with it.

Give NKs that don't lead too much towards you as well.

Vote Pmac

I don't want to explain this just yet, but will shortly.

Hmm, but what I'm implying is scums usually start suspicions around each townies without voting to lynch them to see whether the target can possibly be a scapegoat for his/her escape from LynchDay1. If the others didn't share his view, they would stop and the scum would assume no responsibility in accusing the townie. If the others were taken into the wagon, however, the scum would have gained a lynch-free day and another night to kill off the innocent. And it so happens to be in this game that, the suspicions started really quickly around Gandalf, which lead me to believe that it's more of a scum conspiracy than a mistake of a noob scum.

I'm just saying, you're less likely to attract attention if you stay quiet, so good mafia stay quiet.

This is quite untrue. The more the scum lurks actually, the more suspicion will be on him.

And can everyone help me on this?

Danny135 and Dandman999 seems to be playing a game of their own with complete disregard to what's been happening in the thread?

[Slaine Hayes]

I'll only be able to post once a day until the weekend. I will try to post as much content as possible in said posts.

FC, what FoS are you wanting me to respond to?

[Slaine Hayes]

Nevermind, I see what you mean now.

I am very stingy when it comes to throwing out votes. My FoS on Pulindar is just that, an FoS. I have no reason for voting him, nor do I have a reason for voting anyone else in this game. I only voted for you, FC, as a random vote, in the spirit of the random voting stage.

My official opinion on Gandalf:

I think a better term would be "following the IC's lead". This is a common noob tactic, and to be honest, it doesn't really concern me.

What DOES concern me is the OMGUS vote on FC. FC is simply attempting to scumhunt, and there is no basis for the vote on him by Gandalf, IMO.

However, I am unwilling to put Gandalf at L-1, so all I can do at this point is FoS: Gandalf. I will be watching him with great interest in the future.

[FC Groningen]

Vote Pmac

I don't want to explain this just yet, but will shortly.

Does it have anything to do with the fact that he was the first to jump on the bandwagon when there was no real reason yet?

To Slaine:

So, in case you'd have to get out a serious vote, you'd pick Gandalf? Or do you think other people are more scummy than him?

[FC Groningen]

Also, since there was already a vote on me, your vote might be more than a random vote. I at least wouldn't throw in my random vote on someone that already has one in a 9 player game.

To nopointactingup:

Possible, but also note that I'm not the first one to point that particular thing out. Also, where is your vote? There is enough to go on for now, so I'd like to see you vote at the very least.

[gandalf5166]

I guess I'm about the only one who bother's to check this during the day...... Except for Pmac. Unless everyone else is just in a time zone.

[gandalf5166]

OOH! Typo. And its even one of those typos that looks like I actually didn't know how the word was supposed to be.....

[Pmac]

Did you mean:
Unless everyone else is just in a different time zone?

Anyway, we are from a lot of different places, so, its not hard to have people from different time zones.
Were are you from?

[gandalf5166]

I'm from Texas. I promise, we're not all hicks. The hicks all live in Waco.

[Pmac]

LOL
Then, even we have different time zones. I'm from Portugal.
All hail Europe!

[gandalf5166]

Wait.... If you live in Portugal..... It's like almost eight over there right? I know the time zones over there because my uncle used to live in Italy. It's seven hours later than here in Italy, so I figured its probably six hours in Portugal. So no-one is a dork like me and checks this when they should really be working?

[gandalf5166]

Actually, I always forget that Europe is a lot smaller than America. You're probably in the same time zone as Italy. Am I right?

[Pmac]

XD. Yeah, its almost 8 pm. Im 17, i cant really go here when im in the school.

[gandalf5166]

Well, I'm 13, but I'm going to college, so I'm off on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

[gandalf5166]

This second post is to clarify. I just realized that my last post has a high chance of being taken as a joke. It isn't

[Pmac]

Lucky...

Anyway, this is not msn...
Im waiting to know why did Pulindar vote on me. But if its because of what FC said then, i already had a vote on Gandalf (the random one) and if he is a suspect then i dont see why do i need to unvote right now to not vote on anyone.
