@themanhimself, yeah, I did notice TL's number being used in flavor, but I doubt it means anything.
I wasn't planning to.Saint wrote:@implosion DO NOT say who you are passing your ability to, because I don't want you to cop out.
Nah. I've come to the decision that it really isn't going to help much giving a predetermined target to pass my ability to, especially since it's only one ability. I'll pass it, probably but not necessarily to someone I think is scummy, and if the transfer is uninterrupted then the ability will be confirmed. Giving a predetermined target, or any info for that matter about the target that I'm going to pass to, just allows any mafia with the ability to manipulate cycling to cause confusion.diddin wrote:I shouldn't shoot the stump today. We use my kill today like a second lynch, the player with the stump power passes it on to the scummiest player, AS DECIDED BEFOREHAND by us. Then, tomorrow, the person I give my vigging power to can kill the player with the tree stump ability, taking care of two birds with one stone.
Not amount of posts. Amount of action. Parama has been involved in the first kill of the game, justified who he sent his ability to, etc. IMO, looking at those justifications and the person he decided to send the virus to should provide enough information for a non-null read, or at least some kind of opinion.quadz08 wrote:
Why does amount of posts mean you have to have a read on someone? That makes no sense.implosion wrote:Nullread after Parama has done so much seems a little strange to me.
This is notable and true. 240 as a whole is a nice post as well.quadz08 wrote:WHOA. Nero Cain, MAJOR FoS. You called out CKD on posting fluff in your 3rd post; however, your 4 total posts contain pretty much nothing EXCEPT for that vote, in fact. No bueno, my friend.-

My point was trying to clarify that I am NOT playing the NOOB card, I feel Dirdden preceived it that way, so I clarified.Saint wrote:your activity level is definitely adequate
read narsis or helghast in iso
there are two players who have YET TO POST
mafiascum deadlines are different than teamliquid or most other mafia websites in that the cycles last FOREVER
basically, take your time, wrathchild. Considering the terminology that you're using, though, I would ask for you to discontinue playing the noob card. Thanks in advance!I swear I left my gun somewhere.-

I haven't forgotten about this game, but the wifi at my inlaws that I used to bum from a surrounding neighbor is no longer available. I do not have the time to catchup on 12 pages.
@Mod: Gonna need V/LA until next monday. If you feel you need to replace me, I understand. When I signed up for this game I didn't realize it would be starting so close to the holiday."LynchMePls is more town than all the players I've ever declared to be townies. And that's never going to change." - Drippereth

This goes without saying, but he's going to have to pass it tonight anyways. I'd just as soon prefer him not to use it, although I guess having it around wouldn't be too bad as long as he gives it to me, you, theman, Parama, or someone else who I feel pretty good about at the moment. I don't intend to make a huge list, but you get the idea. Eh, I'm torn. I don't think Diddin is town, but I guess you're right about not wanting to lose the power either.pops 188 wrote:And also, I'd like Diddin to live so he can use those daykills. But Diddin.

Instead of asking pops what you should be doing, why don't you you read the game for yourself? You're not in any danger of being replaced or anything. This is a weird comment.Longing 197 wrote:what are some topics I can comment on?

It was still a pretty early stage in the game, and I didn't really want to change my vote at that point. I can see where you're coming from with a lack of direction because I haven't been actively pushing a lynch before diddin, but is there anything specific you think I've been unclear on?Saint 199 wrote:RedCoyote's #84 is both scummy and lacking direction.
Meta arguments are substantially weaker the fewer number of times you've played with the person. Given that the game we played together in (theSaint 199 wrote:In his #23 in iso, "diddin is scummy" into him coaching diddin, and a cute comment about how RC is "hard to read"... not for me... I've seen RC as town in a game, and this isn't how he plays. On top of that, your speculation towards him seems forced.onlygame we played together in) isn't even finished yet, I'd hardly consider it wise to act as through you're some sort of authority on me and my playstyle.
As far as your case against pops, I'm not prepared to join you. I've never liked the whole, "every post player X made is scummy" approach, and this game is no exception. You're trying too hard. Reasonable players don't think in those terms. pops may very well be scum, but you can't tell me every post he's made is scummy. Those are two very different things, and it really weakens your case.
---
I don't know why you refuse to back down from this. It was clear that the ability had to be passed. It was an ability that was going to kill someone sooner rather than later given the low amount of posts needed to trigger it and the high amount of players. While it may be true that you couldn't get a good scummy read on Muh that early in the game, you can't tell me you were sure he was town either.EC 200 wrote:Of course, he probably never thought Muh was scummy. Just a crappy excuse to get someone killed.

I've noticed this as well, and it makes me more nervous. I don't like having diddin's finger on the trigger.theman 257 wrote:I don't like the pressure that diddin is putting on the town here. It sounds like he's itching to use his dayvig power, which makes me wonder why.
I didn't notice that. It may be something, but there's no sense speculating about it if you're town. I'm not sure why you would bring it up.theman 258 wrote:Has anyone else noticed and/or wondered about the significance of this?
---
Unvotebecause pops (and a few others) are right that we really need to try and defend this ability the best we can. Town can generally only benefit from a day kill that is controlled by the community-at-large, regardless of how successful we are with it.
I'm going to go back to myvote: Helghast. I think this is a good lynch for today, and I don't think any other wagon (sans possibly EC) is really gaining any steam. He starts off by asking Parama to expand on his ability. Frankly, it reads more defensive than anything else to me. If it's not defensive then I read it as somewhat of a silly question anyways. Later he kind of drops the Parama situation altogether, which was a weird transition for a player who had, until that point, been focused 100% on Parama's ability. The rest of his posts have mostly been one liners that have given us nothing to go on. He hasn't voted, he hasn't "FoS'd" anyone, and he hasn't really given us any decent reads at all. He's just drifting by unaccounted for. Bottom line, when I read Helghast's posts I don't see them as a townie who is genuinely trying to scumhunt.-

@RC
Just going with the flavour, but I'll vote "normal" if its going to bug people that much.
@Saint
You willing to lynch me, despite never mentioning me before that post. I don't like that you just called me out like that without provocation and more impotently, without evidence. Why me specifically? How do you get that "[I'm] a great player"? There is practically no usable meta on me unless you've been through me active games, which would suggest you either already have suspicions or are basing your voting strategies based primarily on meta.
Also, I would like whoever you are to post without Vi's help on this one please.-

He hasn't even mentioned vibes yet, it was a straight and simple
First mention of me in any one his posts. Nothing about scummy or vibes. I haven't specifically called it out as scummy, just something which has raised my suspicions of him slightly more.Saint wrote:p.s. I would also be happy voting EC or AntB
He says my FoS seems a bit OMGUS to him then he makes an AtE by saying "[I'm] a great player". Seems a bit odd to dismiss my FoS as OMGUS then trying to get on my good side...
The reason for not wanting Vi's input for this one as the guy evidently needs a hand standing on his own two feet in Mafia, hence the hydra with Vi. I am assuming that post was made without Vi's input (its seems slightly out of place to the others) so I want him to explain himself without a helping hand.-

I actually agree with AntB here, Saint has pointed the finger at a ton of people but never AntB so this seems kinda sudden to me. I don't like when players just go off of anything suspicious they see on anyone without firmly sticking to case. It seems to me like throwing everything against the wall to see what sticks and then running with it which is essentially a mislynch strategy.curiouskarmadog wrote:

I haven't actually played with Vi but I am well aware of her reputation and ability. If I was to just say, completely at random I want you lynched, provided I have made no evidence, pointed no fingers and as such have otherwise ignored you, you wouldn't find that suspicious?
To clarify once again:
Saint has made absolutely NO mention of me in any post prior to the one I quoted, raise no suspicions, reported no "scum" vibes, made absolutely no comment on me at all, then comes out with "I would be happy voting EC or AntB". This is his first mention of me and he states he would be happy voting for me. His response on being challenged about it is AtE.
So either:
Vi has told him to watch me and slipped up in doing so - doubtful as I'm pretty much an unknown so far on site.
OR
He slipped up, badly.-

Actually his post implies that he read the entire game and has nothing to say. That's normal, nothing scummy jumps out at you when you already know who the scum are.

Yeah, for a mini the flavor thingie would be cute enough but this game is stressful... quickhammering nonsense seems the only use of the voting option.
Use it or lose it. He wants his shot to be democratically executed today before the power is possibly lost tonight. As town he ought to want it to get used today. I don't see why people are acting suspicious of diddin based on how he has handled his dayvig ability because it's been appropriate in every way, not fullclaiming, making it democratic so it's an extra lynch, all that.RC wrote:
