Execution Mafia GAMEOVER!

[Shattered Viewpoint]

Vote: StrungOut

for that avatar. Creepy. Seriously, dude, WTF?

[Shattered Viewpoint]

unvote

Vote: Exe

Exe = Smart.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

Haschel, if the Executioner executes who we (as Town) agree on, whether or not that player flips Town, we still should follow through with our agreed nightkill.

Make sense?

[Shattered Viewpoint]

anyways, reading the posts Exe seems to have everything under control; his ideas make the most sense

Your blatant sheeping has been noted for later examination.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

My kill list:

1. Twistedsppon (sheeping by any other name...)
2. vezok (more sheeping. SRSLY just STOP)
3. COOLDOG (specifically mentioning the "odd mechanic" of the game. Dude, you knew that when you signed up. Stop being so obvscum.)

[Shattered Viewpoint]

My list like Exe's.

Baaaaa.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

3. COOLDOG (specifically mentioning the "odd mechanic" of the game. Dude, you knew that when you signed up. Stop being so obvscum.)

That's not a good reason. I had no idea what the mechanic was when I signed up, because I couldn't find mallowgeno's post in the Queue thread. I'm basically here because the other theme game in sign-ups had some anime theme.

Well then, you obviously suck as a player.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

My kill list:

1) Ant (already said why)
2) SV (I get scum vibes for some reason)

Tragedy needs to make more content. My read on TS is confused town.

I don't see anything scummy there.

Then, my dear Umbrage, YOU ARE BLIND.

My new list:

1) UMBRAGE
2) COOLDOG
3) TRAINSPOTTINGSPOON
4) vezok

[Shattered Viewpoint]

The case on twistedspork is: sheeping, rolefishing, and blatant buddying.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

Twisted went rolefshing in his VERY FIRST POST. All that setup speculation, tossing out the possibility of "investigative roles" and "protective roles" -- why not just ask the cop and the doc to raise their hands?

[Shattered Viewpoint]

@MOD: VOTECOUNT, if you please.

I don't want an executioner chosen too quickly, so:

unvote

But don't worry, Exe, you've got my vote as long as you don't do anything stoopid.

Amrun, while giving a full and complete set of reads, does need to participate more from now on. Lurking, then posting one huge post, then lurking again (IF it happens) is unacceptable. (<preventative maintenance.)

twisted needs to be less scummy. Or less Nooby. Whichever.

COOLDAWG needs to read the rules better, eh?

[Shattered Viewpoint]

This game. Holy crap.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

Haschel, we will gain nothing by immediately electing an executioner. It can wait.

Stop it, your scummy is showing.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

Amrun, hypothesize with me for a moment. Say we elect Exe RIGHT NOW THISVERYMINUTE and, as we're discussing who to execute, Exe makes a slip and outs himself as obvscum?

Yes, we can elect too soon. And I won't have any of it.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

My #1 is still Umbrage.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

Exe makes a slip and outs himself as obvscum?

Does this mean you suspect Exe more now?

First off, DO NOT quote me out of context. Secondly, if you'd kindly READ THE ENTIRE QUOTE, you'll see that I was speaking hypothetically.

No, I don't suspect Exe more now, I just wanted to think about what might happen if we elected an executioner too early.

@SV: Why did you vote for StrungOut, Then Exe, but lastly unvoted? Does it always matter for a smart (scum) person to be the executioner? How does TS 'blatantly buddy' somebody?

@ALL: How would you react if you were given an execution choice? WHO would you execute?

1) My StrungOut vote was essentially RVS-vote. I unvoted Exe because I didn't want the danger of electing an executioner too soon. It doesn't matter whether the executioner is 'intelligent' or not; I personally feel it matters if they have Town interests at heart. I'm not sure I accused anyone of "blatant buddying."

2) I would execute whoever Town agreed on.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

Vote: Amrun

I feel better now.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

Exe, explaining your reads is always protown.

Why the question about vezo? My top two at the moment are Umbrage and Twisted.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

Amrun, you're my top town read right now. I don't expect Town will want me executed, but if they do, so be it. I also assume that you would execute the Town's choice, and not your own personal agenda.

This post does not at all mean that I think vezo is town; I just think vezo is less scum than some other players (like Umbrage and twisted).

[Shattered Viewpoint]

Twisted: Rolefishing in his

very first post.

Hesitancy to commit to reads (iso5); could be scum hoping to avoid a mistake. Buddying, both to FF and Ant-to-the-max.

Okay, on re-reading Twisted, I have to downgrade him to Neutral/slight scum. I really didn't like the rolefishng, though.

Umbrage: My previous read of Umbrage was based on one post; and since I've downgraded Twisted, I have to also downgrade Umbrage to Neutral, slightly Town.

Now. Some current reads, with some reasons:

Exe. Power hungry, seems to want Absolute Control. Never a good thing.
CooLDoG. Willfully oblivious to how the game works (Thinks day ends with election of executioner).
Haschel. Same thing as cooldog.

I need to iso vezo; but that will have to wait; dinner's about ready.


Also, Amrun, I would like to publicly apologize for my early disparaging of you (when I warned against you dropping a huge post and then lurking more). You've been very active.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

Let me live tonight. You can execute me in the day but I need tonight. Seriously. Just don't kill me.

You're doing it wrong.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

Umbrage & Exe need to go to their separate corners and breathe deeply for a short while.

Seriously, stop creating so much noise. It distorts the signal that

some

of us are trying to find.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

Right, well hypotheticals are all well and good, but

the fact is that I know I'm town

so I can't really see much incentive for me to want to go against my own reads.

Exe, saying this (the bolded part) is totally null.

Everyone

in this game (if they have the proper mental faculties to actually play mafia) is going to say that they're town, and they know it.

I just don't see the point in saying it. It's especially bad by stating it as a "fact." The more you say it, the more true it looks (which, really, is why scum say it so very often).

Game Specific Rules

#1-Players are voting each day to elect an executioner. Once a majority is reached, the executioner may post

Execute: Player

. ONCE THIS HAPPENS, NO MORE TALKING IS ALLOWED, AT ALL. There is no twilight in this game. Also, you may not execute a player until I have confirmed that a player has reached a majority. Only then are they authorized to execute.
#2-Players are voting each night to elect a killer. Voting remains anonymous and the killer remains anonymous. Members of the mafia's party count for two instead of one. You have 48 hours to PM me your vote, otherwise it won't count.

I will then PM the killer and they will have 48 hours to select a kill.

Players may not vote for themselves.
#3-Roles will be revealed upon death


Good Luck! Sending out PMs. Once you have received your PM, return a PM to me summarizing your role and it's description.

I'm fine with killing SV over vezok if that's what everyone wants.

IGUESS I would do a no-kill overnight if everyone actually wanted that, but I personally think it's a bad idea. Like really bad.

Do you not realize that killing at night means we rely on only ONE person's opinion, which DOESN'T take the first kill's flip into account?

I mean, we could talk about who to kill at night, but that leaves us making a decision before we know the flip from the day kill, which is why I think that we shouldn't kill at night.

But here's the kicker. This is why we SHOULD NOT night kill.

If we allow kills at night, then I feel that we leave the mafia a chance to say "well I thought this person was scum."
If we force them to no-kill, they don't get any options to have their way AND

we guarantee that any kills at night are made by scum.

Please, compare and contrast the two parts bolded above. There is no independent scumkill, as you seem to be suggesting. Unless you know something that we, as Town, don't.

I'm working on an extended reply to Umbrage's post, but this caught my eye. You, Sir, are looking worse and worse to me all the time.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

I see what you're saying, Exe. I read your post (that I quoted) as you believing the scum had an additional nightkill ON TOP OF the anonymous kill. (It's early morning. Someone take away my keyboard.)

You know what, I need to delay that response to Umbrage until I know which way is up. Look for it in a few hours. If y'all haven't killed me by then.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

Hi, prod received. Freak snowstorm (10 inches in 12 hours) took out internet for 36 hours and power for 12. I've read thread; I would be down with a Strungout execution because, as Exe said, he's either scum or kindergarten Newbie.

Will contribute more later tonight (7 games to catch up on, plus work and other online stuff.).

If we're requiring officiality:

Kill: StrungOut

P-edit: Geez, mallow, have patience.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

While I would prefer that we kill SO, I wouldn't at all be sad if umbrage were to die, either.

Sateal, I don't like your style already. Note to self: look at cooldog toMorrow.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

many, many words, but no meaning

Nice try.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

Vote: StrungOut

Are we reaching for a majority, a plurality, are unanimity?

Game Specific Rules

#2-Players are voting each night to elect a killer. Voting remains anonymous and the killer remains anonymous. Members of the mafia's party count for two instead of one. You have 48 hours to PM me your vote, otherwise it won't count. I will then PM the killer and they will have 48 hours to select a kill. Players may not vote for themselves.

The way I'm reading the rules is that, during the first 24 hours of the 48-hour Night, every player PMs the Mod with a vote for the player that will be entrusted with the nightkill. Therefore, "deciding" a night killer inthread is pointless.

@Mod: Am I understanding correctly?

However, it seems we are free to settle on the nightkill target (if any) inthread.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

I AM AN IDIOT.

Just because we vote for a killer at night doesn't mean we can't pre-decide during the day. Please to be ignoring my idiocy. My only defense is that I posted that before breakfast.

Carry on.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

Wait. Ar we talking about a nightkill or a night killer?

[Shattered Viewpoint]

I need to iso vezo; but that will have to wait; dinner's about ready.

When will this ever happen.

Shortly after, the thrust shifted elsewhere; 'this' will happen after night, provided I'm still alive.

Why shouldn't Amrun be elected again? I don't see any good reason not to.

Fascinating. You went from the beginning of the day beating your own chest and tooting your own horn, to ....this. Just wanted to point that out. I think it's a bit too complacent and agreeable. (I wouldn't be surprised at an Exe+Amrun scumteam. I wouldn't be surprised at

anything

in this ridiculous game anymore.)

[Shattered Viewpoint]

SV, why do you care what other suspicions people had? Why do your reads depend on others...?

I like baby carrots with lots and lot of butter.


...How does your question relate to

anything

I've said recently??

[Shattered Viewpoint]

Odd how the wagons switched so suddenly in my favor. Just sayin.

Everyone should analyze that very carefully tomorrow after I'm dead and flip Town.

[Shattered Viewpoint]

Still here. Waiting to die. God, this is taking forever.
