Post of the game so far.

Probably my favourite episode.

I really wish they'd play Bangkok. Aw, they never play Bangkok.

Woooo, game! So excited.

It seems this Day 0 poll may be quite meaningful, upon first glance. What do you all think?

The player list is mind boggling!

So I was under the impression that starting off no one would have a faction, but almost all the roles have one listed. Can the recruiters only recruit factionless roles, or can anyone be recruited and lose their current faction?

And is it possible we'll only cycle through 3 positions all game long if we want?

Also, Train to Bangkok is awesome!

I see some familiar faces, and some new friends here. Let's all have fun playing together.

DrWilgy is definitely buddying up to everyone. Confirmed bad.

This is actually a very valid point. Worth bearing in mind when people decide how to vote!
We have to cycle through all five positions. It might actually be that we are better off getting kills from baddies out of the way now... we should think about and discuss best use of kills. Definitely better to avoid positions with civ kills for now, I would think.

This is something a baddie would say when eager to kill someone. I'm watching you, Golden Boy.

I'll contribute.

The adverb usage is no different than anything else when analyzing whether someone is telling a lie -- you have to first develop a baseline, and even then, it is far from an indicative factor on its own.

I refuse to buy into the fact that a player's adverb usage is any more effective at finding baddies in online mafia than the roll of a die.

Avoiding adverbs was a major contributor to me winning Watchmen, imo. I believe!

I'm gonna vote Option 5. It seems to have interesting stuff, but nothing TOO interesting like poison or Hunger.

#155

Russ, you managed to use the word interesting twice in pne sentence which is even worse than using adverbs. You're so bad.

is this serious or sarcasm?

#157

That was a serious question; I have problems telling sometimes, which is why i am such a fan of the sarcasm font.

The sarcasm font is a color, not a font. We need a pedantic font.

#159

New font color - pedantic pink.

I'm also trying out pedantic black for size.

@SVS - I just always assume anything MM posts on day one is not actually intended to be taken seriously.

In this moment, I am not being serious.

But I do believe that mafia is more apt to use descriptors like "interesting" or "odd" because they call out behaviours without stating their own opinion.

This is Day 0. Everything I say is important.

#162

I'm so excited for this game!!! I'm at work and will tune in for realz later, I can already see that this is going to be a nightmare to follow, lol.

not really, it's just the first number so why not start at the beginning
since we are going to cycle through all 5 positions anyway
and I like the number 1 :P

That was my reasoning, copycat. Are you bad?

#165

Llama says:

is our pedantic font.

So then that should or should not have been in orange sarcastic color? I am still a bit bewildered by your intent, MM. Are you serious or not?

#166

There was ALOT of linki, lol. ALOT.

No I'm not. While I do believe in the theory, I don't think it applies here.

Also, llama is a copycat, because I already asked TinyBubbles if she is mafia.

#170

What's with the pink?

#171

I'm liking the pedantic pink.

yes, i'm evil. badder than you could ever suspect! better lynch me now, doo eet.
actually i thought the position 1 also had many protector - ish options, compared to some of the other positions.

#174

Llama associates copycats with being bad. Llama is a copycat. Llama is bad.

flawless logic. what do you say llama? dharma did use the "start at the beginning" reasoning before you (or me!)

Where did I say I associated copycats with being bad?

Okay, I'm voting for you on Day 1 then.

Yes..methinks so too.

Helluva choice of a game to pick to end my extended hiatus, eh?

Golden wrote:I'm liking the pedantic pink.

What's the point of having specific meanings for posting colors if you can make up your own? I have enough issues determining sarcasm from serioussness, lol.

#179

TB: If you thought position 1 was better for those reasons, why didn't you intially say so? Did you make up those reasons in hindsight after being challenged?

SVS: so only site admins can make up meanings for colors? How elitist. :P

i hate the acronym TB! could you please call me anything else, even mafia scum. Ugh, i don't know why i even chose a name that could be associated with tuberculosis ><
anyway, no i didn't make it up after the fact i wasn't sure to mention it or not, because i only skimmed through the role options and couldve been wrong about position having more protector options

Or Tampa Bay. Gross.

Hey everyone lets get this started.

#184

I like turtles

#185

Im going with number one. Its always best to start at the beginning.

#186

Is it though?

reywaS wrote:Is it though?

Depends on the goal. If the goal is to get to the end, it's probably better to start at the end.

#188

Only five pages? I'm disappointed in you guys. I expected this thread to be up to seven pages at least. I expect the page count to be at least 15 by the time I check in over breakfast tomorrow.

Now to check out those role/position breakdowns...

not necessarily. Starting as close to the end as possible would be the easiest way to go I think.

I like the way you think, Sawyer-man.

#192

Everyone should vote the number that comes after 4 and before 6.

How many sides does a pentagram have?

How many letters are in mafia?

How many times have I nightkilled Black Rock on Night 1?

#193

I've missed this game! Good to be back with all of you fine folks.

A pentegram has 10 sides. 5 points...10 sides.

Gonna go with position 1.

Having been a recruiter in the last Recruitment game on RM I can tell you the Day 0 poll then had everything to with determining who got to recruit first depending on which poll options that were chosen - I was told what would benefit me before the game started.

I am going to think that some people must have info in this poll so I will look at those who push an option - it was my downfall last game

I think he's thinking of a pentagon, that has 5 sides. He seems to have his polygons confused.

I can see why people are avoiding positions 2 and 4. Position 2 is rife with chaos and position 4 seems rife with chaos and carnage. Maybe I need to go back and re-read them one more time but position 3 didn't stand out to me as a bad option. Is it just that positions 1 and 5 seem more pro-civ that position 3 is getting passed over?
