Also, please discount the above double post.

[Raskol]

unvote

vote: Bub Bidderskins

Why? Honestly,

I was tyring to pressure him into roleclaiming

and was waiting for a response. Instead, now we're back at L-2 because of your antics. Fine, if you want to hammer him, go ahead.

vote: diakron

Have you ever played mafia before?

As a matter of fact, no. In anyway, I thought it would be fun to see if he was lying or not. :shrugs:

[Diakron]

im sorry but the way you play baffles me and i cant play like i want to and nor can i hide the fact that i have very poor playing skills i dont know most "official" terms to mafia and RVS baffled me. random voting is a strategy to me not an official stage of the game.

I have nothing else to say as this game is so slow that i have gotten bored with it. i will try playing one more time on this forum and if its the same i will find another place to play.

[skitzo]

what would you prefer?
alot of one-liners?

[Raskol]

The games here aren't usually like this at all, we just have a bunch of people who don't seem to want to participate. The game is totally player driven, so the quality of the game depends on the quality of the players.

lying about what?

You do realize you're not dead yet, yes?

[Raskol]

While we're both on, Danny, do you think you could answer a few questions for me?

---Why did you random vote last game but not this one?

---What would you think of lynching today based on a random roll among the 4 players who have the lowest in-thread postcount two days before deadline?

---Who are your top targets for scum at this point, and why? (I realize there's not much info yet).

Actually, I would like answers to the last two from everyone.

[Debonair Danny DiPietro]

---Why did you random vote last game but not this one?

I hate to play any two games the same way so even if it's something small like not voting in the RVS I always try to do something different.

---What would you think of lynching today based on a random roll among the 4 players who have the lowest in-thread postcount two days before deadline?

I think we have ten days (at least?) till deadline and that there's no reason to panic and do anything rash just yet. In fact there appears to finally be good information from at least some players to evaluate so no need to do something nonsensical like vote randomly.

---Who are your top targets for scum at this point, and why? (I realize there's not much info yet).

Well I'd like Diakron to say something again after his rather defeatist seeming post, but before that I didn't much care for what I was seeing. My top suspect is probably one of the undercontributers, but I haven't yet really gone and parsed them apart yet.

[Bub Bidderskins]

Excellent point DDD.

[Del]

Fos: DDD

For somehow not throwing out random accusations and votes during RVS.

unvote

Because Raskol's posts made me laugh

Are you trying to extend the RVS? And did you notice that we have, well, a person at L-1?

With someone at L-1, I assumed the RVS was over, hence my FoS. If I felt that we were still in RVS, then my reasoning wouldn't make much sense since he would still have time to throw out an accusation/vote or two.


And can someone correct me if I'm doing this wrong,

unFos

. Since he's explained why he didn't join in RVS.


As for Diakron, as tempting as it is since he's at L-1, hammering just for the sake of hammering isn't the best way to win games I'm thinking, so I guess I'll have a good look over his posts before I choose whether to hammer or not.



Slightly off topic, I understand about this game feeling slow (Mafia games I've played on other sites are much faster in terms of deadlines and such), but if that's how games are played on this site, then I have nothing against it.

[Del]

EBWOP

My opinion on Diakron huh? Well, I don't know any more. He says he's played Mafia on another site and doesn't know what an RVS is, as well as taking the RVS way too seriously.

Having played Mafia on another site, I have never heard of RVS until stumbling upon Mafiascum. I guess browsing pages such as this:

http://www.mafiascum.net/wiki/index.php ... reviations

And browsing some threads/guides.

Back on topic and in answer to Raskol's question about top two suspects, I cannot yet answer without saying none. I considered Diakron and Bub, but I somewhat dislike translating apparent newbieness and ignorance to scuminess. Of course, if it turns out they were feigning being newbs/ignorance, then I'm sure for my next game I'll have turned as cynical as any.

[Maemuki]

You did not understand my question. Did you? I asked if you were trying to extend the RVS, by [on my view] randomly voting Raskol. Did you have a serious reason?

Well, Diakron also took the RVS too seriously and yet he still claimed to have played the same game on a different site. Still, I admit that on different sites they might have different customs and abbreviations. Even though I voted for him, everybody should still think hard before hammering him. We still have quite a bit of time left, and there's no need to rush a lynch.

I was thinking of it more as an incentive to activity, actually.

We could just shamelessly bandwagon them until they say something instead, how does that sound?

And post the vote count.

[Bub Bidderskins]

Okay, update: I don't think Raskol is scum. I think he shamelessly accuses people who parter with people whom he's accused for the same reason, but I don't think he's scum. A scum wouldn't try to get so much attention, nor would he so vehemently try to catch scum.

I think that the under-contributers have a reason to be scum, but they may have just abandoned the game. (mainly Del, Skitso, Ibramagic, and the Teh guy.)

I also think that Diakron seems scummy for acting like a noob, then saying he's played the game somewhere else, and then posting as if he'd just given up.

I have no reason to think that DDD or Maemuki are scum, but I also have no reason to think that they aren't, so I'll keep my eyes on them.

[Del]

You did not understand my question. Did you? I asked if you were trying to extend the RVS, by [on my view] randomly voting Raskol. Did you have a serious reason?

I did not have a serious reason. The vote for Raskol was random, but I thought that the RVS was still going whilst the game was still on it's first page. Correct me if I'm going about the RVS in the wrong way :/


And apologies for under-contributing, I'd become a tad engrossed in a faster paced mafia game off site and may have forgotten about this a lil. I'll try to check up on this thread daily from now on!

[Maemuki]

First...page? Huh?
We are on page 5, unless the thread can magically shrink.

And, please don't lurk so much - this game is being quite slow already.

And we're 10 days to the deadline, I don't know if you noticed.

[Del]

I'm confused here. You just asked me if I was trying to extend the RVS by randomely voting Raskol right?

My vote for Raskol was on the first page of the game, which is what I was referring to in my last post. I'm fairly sure that the game was very RVSish at that point, and I'm also pretty certain I've unvoted since then.
