https://www.narutoforums.org/styles/nf/smilies/4SLHKgS.gif D0 has no effect on that, D1 is. I don't get how you read Lap as bad due to you viewing her 1 post on D0 as she did it because she urged to. I didn't get the argument before this, but it's a good point. Mafia wants to make good use of their abilities. Would the bad guys really be okay losing out on a roleblock/kill/other whatever dark arts or regular ability because Lap didn't post? Not that they have any say in it. If Lap is laying low on purpose, is it because she doesn't know the rules? Or because she doesn't care about the scum having actions? Jay view: >Lap made a post because she felt the need to My view: >Lap did it D0, what reason is possible to make her feel the need to post on D0?? If she did it D1 then okay I can see why Jay view her that way. Basically ^ feel free to ask me if there's something not clear from my post. I'm not native speaker https://www.narutoforums.org/styles/nf/icons/7t6CNnF.png Is Lap a known inactive? Lap’s on the quiet end and gets mislynched sometimes...

Ladies and gentlemen, I'm pleased to announce Gryffindor won the first round of House Cup. This is looking like in the books already. Riiiiiiigged. Somebody mason with me. *sneer*...

Don't really have time to catch up before the lynch, but I can see from the Who Posted list that Nova still hasn't checked in so I will vote there today. novaselinenever I am not inclined to give Bullzeye credit for this, and indeed it might make the vote worse. There was a time when an off-wagon whatever vote on a mafia teammate was *el classico* as the resident hazelnut spread likes to say. I cannot remember recent examples of the phenomenon, though I have hardly paid the same kind of attention recently. It's a token distancing maneuver. Eh. If it doesn't give him any credit, it's not a very good distancing move now is it...

i had a dream last night where speedchuck was killed at and he was mafia that's almost exactly what happened last night [mention]speedchuck[/mention] :haha...

Floo Powder: This powder can be used to communicate from great distances. The student who uses this will be able to gain BTSC with another person of their choice until the end of the next night. Take this, griffendorks. We can make up a secret code and be masons for the entire game. If you're town, it will be super useful and if you're mafia, it'll at least be hilarious...

If you don't I'm gonna tell my daddy on you...

The scum are Jay, Long Con, Quin, Glorfindel and Kyle. You have proven yourself adept at identifying mafia when you're civ so I have to seriously consider what you have to say here. What do you see about LC that says he's bad? I have a hell of a time reading him even tho I've played with him for years. And is there anything you would be willing to share about Quin, Glorf, and Kyle? I don't think I've ever seen a bad Glorf so I'd like to know what you see. Thanks for anything you're willing to share. Forgive me but... :haha: juliets: what on earth gave you a crazy idea like that? Here’s a thought. If Glor is scum, at least one of these other players is also scum...

Ope, I found it! (am I allowed to post a quote from another game?) There's a specific way in which Quin disagrees with literally everyone... and how he doesn't give a crap... usually, I see that from town Quin, with a certain belligerently honest tone to it. That's one of the secrets of my quindar. That's a bit of what genuquin means. ...wait. Quin's in Ravenclaw. I don't want to lynch someone in my house. :( But Quin's ISO is full of posts that are actually trying to be helpful to the game. This doesn't look like town Quin. mfw me trying to be helpful isn't town indicative https://66.media.tumblr.com/624ae2513f2e6661b525abd71e46c7cb/tumblr_inline_padggzmUsP1vmgavr_1280.jpg...

ScumGlor would be worried about that and Glor’s post comes across worried. Like if Mac put me in a five player group and said that was the mafia, I’d ignore it. Glor didnt...

Can't recall a thing the guy has posted. That's kind of how he always is so basically NAI, but it means nothing is particularly in his favor. in which I provide a link to my own grievances in hopes of aiding my good friend nutella of The Syndicate in her efforts to interpret the play of another esteemed Syndicateer by the name of insertnamehere Yeah well I think your read that INH's read on Owner's read being baseless is baseless is baseless...

MacDougall is mafia. Discuss. He's too quiet to be mafia. He should be bullying someone into being lynched and then shrugging when they're town. Or if someone else gets lynched, complaining about it. Right? That's what I remember from the only time I've played with scumMac...

Give me a break! I’d have thought you were far smarter than to take that theory seriously. Our buddy Jack gives me the impression of an aspiring Nigerian scam artist with that nonsense. I can’t help thinking he and Mac could be Mafia bros? http://media.giphy.com/media/zatxDVqRzmfss/giphy.gif Yeah. This is bad...

The last sentence is patently false. I have both justified my read on Owner, and provided reads on other people. It's up to you whether you choose to include them in the narrative you're pushing about me or not. Is this one of those intentionally idiotic and empty cases you push sometimes to see how people react, or is this actually serious? Maybe try using a different font color for your wacky crazy prank cases and your actual "legit" cases. No to all of this. Your justification re: Owner was no better than her justification re: DH. It sucked. Your posts were nearly 100% Owner-centric at the I said that. Your contributions tend to be complaints instead of substance, so I don’t care what you think of my play. Now you listen to me. While I will admit to a certain cynicism, the fact is that I am a naysayer and hatchet-man in the fight against violence. I pride myself in taking a punch and I'll gladly take another because I choose to live my life in the company of Gandhi and King. My concerns are global. I reject absolutely revenge, aggression, and retaliation. The foundation of such a method... is love. I love you JaggedJimmyJay. https://media.giphy.com/media/13bqXgzRqlW288/giphy.gif...

LC = scrotum ... I am not entirely sure what that means. I've been called out as scum before but I gotta say, I've never been called out as scrotum before. Must mean I'm a better mafia player than [mention]Long Con[/mention] :slick...

Can you unpack that scrotum read, Mac? I'll unpack your scrotum if you're not careful. https://i.pinimg.com/originals/db/e4/e1/dbe4e1853764ba3680d6692e851b3749.gif...

For real though Lunalee is hecka scum And I was feeling quite proud of my scum-hunting today. :pout: Who do you suspect again? INH. have you read any of my posts? I read the one where you laughed at my joke and the other one where TH was like "I feel bad about lynching people D1" and you were like "Yeah, I feel bad about lynching townies." Now that I think about it, that might not be that suspicious...

I'm also pretty damn sure that I already confronted Juliets about this in the last game we played together when she brought it up. Bit scummy to be using it once again as an excuse to hop onto a bandwagon, with more or less the same wording/justification. Was she hoping I forgot I already debunked this? I don't recall you debunking it but I do recall you were MIA for a good chunk of GOC where you were bad and also the game after that, I can't remember the game, where you were bad. So I'm wary of the behavior.I have no recollection of your telling me what you told me here. I meant no offense. Outpost 31? Chickachicka 123...

I think I'm going to use INH's strategy of just suspecting people who suspect me. That sounds like a really easy way to play this game...

I think I'm going to use INH's strategy of just suspecting people who suspect me. That sounds like a really easy way to play this game. Then why are you voting me? Cause that's not my actual strategy. And I haven't decided where to vote instead...

It wasn’t Jay, whatever that means...

I was just waiting for reassurance so I could Glor Any specific reason other than he hasn't done anything a scum wouldn't do? I do more than tell jokes on occasion...

How am I supposed to play Mafia when there’s an incredibly exciting 49ers/Raiders matchup on prime time? Think of all the concussions and other health problems the players will have and come play with us...

I think Colin has seemed authentic in his play so far. Jack hasn’t done much, so I award no civilian points. There is precedent for him to goof off as a good guy so tread carefully, but it’s an easy meta to mimic. Indeed that’s the value of the meta. Can you explain why you trust me in specific reference to my play in this game? All three of these points are spot on and I award Slytherin 10 house points for this post...

Beefs with Soneji Sonjei Hufflepuffs are wimps and he’s from a poor family. *sneer* Hitting at house and home already, ouch. This Glorf talk reminds me of the presence of Veritaserum. This game has lie detection - can we lie-detect any post successfully, or are there restrictions? Some games have a rule that you can't LD answers to direct questions, to avoid everyone lining up and saying "I am a Civilian" as an automatic checkable phrase. Also, what happens when Glorf is given Veritaserum? Super-honesty? The effects of Veritaserum are described in the OPs under set-up, which clearly state it's limitations. Any attempts at a loophole would be grounds for asking the host, not something to go off on a tangent discussing with other players. I am puzzled at why you are asking about it's effect on a specific player, unless it's meant to be a joke as by what I can ascertain from other's posts Glorf has a truth meta. I don't see a point in this post in furthering town's goals, if anything it reminds mafia of a mechanic they might have forgotten about. It just wants to go off into pure speculation, you don't even bring up any good targets for use of it. Baseless mechanics talk is a general scumtell for me so : [/b]Vote Lynch Longcon[/b] Didn't know that triggered the voting function here, that was : Vote Lynch Longcon My initial take on LC's discussion of mechanics was negative, so I don't fault Soneji for adopting the same view. I highlighted a portion though which rubs the wrong way, in that it's devoid of context. "This is a thing that is suspicious, LC did the thing, thus I vote." The mindset is civilian-compatible, but the delivery irks me. It's less important than what follows in this post. ~~~ I think this has merit, the times when I have caught myself scum slipping it has been on minor things like this. By itself I wouldn't jump on this but that Owner has spent this whole phase tunneled on someone over a previous game adds to their rapsheet. ~~~ These posts from Lunalee all slightly pinged me, the mocking joke in response to TH, the preemptive excuse for voting off leading wagons, the overly long somewhat passive-aggressive post to say he's town and the fact that they prompted this JJJ wagon but only just joined it this late. Vote Lynch Lunalee I omitted content from this post to make it smaller. The first portion (red) refers to Owner. All of it reads badly to me. Foremost, I just don't like "when I have caught myself scum slipping it has been on minor things like this" -- it is some vague, unverifiable throwaway comment that anyone can tack on to a post to justify promoting a "slip". Discussion of slips is often controversial, because players split into camps defined by their belief in the likelihood of the phenomenon, and I believe that when bad guys falsely contribute to slip dialogue there's a need to justify such that the controversy is quelled. The latter portion (green) is just bogus to me. If Owner believes someone is suspicious on the basis of meta, whether her approach seems rational or not, then there's no reason why she wouldn't pursue that suspicion over the course of a day -- particularly when people were asking her about it . That's the image of constancy, but not a sort of constancy driven by the Owner as much as by everyone who questioned Owner. This looks like a smear. The Lunalee stuff isn't as bothersome, though the orange bit there is not an agreeable assessment of the post in question (click back to Soneji's original post for clarification). My Lunalee lynch isn't going anywhere so it seems it's between Owner and TH. Owner had a potential scumslip but it's so slight that I'm not willing to bank on that. TH's push on me is bad and they have had some odd interactions. What edges things out for me is that Luna and TH are voting Owner, while Owner is not voting TH, scum would have to be really unmotivated to not self-pres. Turnip Head Not sure I buy his suspicion of Turnip Head. The "push on me is bad" assertion traces back to this thing which does nothing for me, and "odd interactions" is essentially meaningless sans-expansion. He finagled his way into a lynch of a player who wanted his head. I could sheep this...
