Your entire case against me is built around the notion that I am a role checker or that I am on a team with a role checker. Therefore the only way this statement makes any sense is if you are bad. :eek:

Re: Dr. Who Mafia - Day 7

I've been trying to maintain an open mind here, but the following posts are contradictory:
Chris wrote:I went for Epig without much reason other than I was tired of hearing about the lie detector shit, and he was acting differently enough for me to vote him just to end it. It wasn't a great reason, but I also didn't care who was lynched between the two of them.
Chris wrote:We were all set to lynch Epig, let's do that. If you still think that I'm bad after that, then lynch me.
http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 430#p90430

So let me get this straight: You voted for me because you didn't care who got lynched, just that you were tired of hearing about the lie detector business, and that I'm acting differently (without specifying how)? Now you speak for the group when I didn't even receive half the votes cast?

Then:
Chris wrote:I'll reiterate, just because I suspect someone, even if that someone is a civvie, it doesn't mean I'm bad.
Your entire rationale for voting Ep1:
Chris wrote:Changed my vote.

*votes Epignosis*

I seem to remember you getting juliets killed.
That's a double standard. The courtesy you expect to be extended to you is one you don't extend to others.

What if it was 2 - 1, wouldn't Chris want to make it 2 - 2? I agree that The Master probably did vote for you in an attempt to save his only teammate, but it could have been any of those voters. There was a lot of momentum against MM, The Master would have been anticipating his lynch.

All that said, Bass at vote 19 stands out to me.
MM & I were the only people getting talked about that last Day. Nobody else took more than one vote. Plus, like I told Dom, votes can be changed. Voting order is less relevant given these points.

Actually, your whole "MP is the Cyber Controller" theory from earlier might make sense if you are the Cyber Controller. We all know that baddies tend to talk about their own roles.
Chris voted for me when MM and I had two votes. I am of the opinion that The Master voted to keep his recruit from getting lynched.

While this is certainly possible, Epig, why don't you think it was one of the later voters? I understand that you're looking at Chris being the Master because he survived 2 NKs, but do you think it would make sense for the Master to vote for you later rather than sooner given how close it was? I'm looking at Chris for the same reason as I think you are, but I am unsure why you think the master would vote so early for you.
You can change your vote, so if someone else started taking more votes than me, no biggie. Looking back over the votes, that Day when it was Made and Snow Dog taking votes, Enrique voted Snowy second. So it happens.

I would like to find The Master though, so I think we should pay attention to people surviving kills (yes, I realize I did, but I also explained how I did, due to my prize), particularly those who say they don't know how they survived. At the moment, this would be BR. :eye:
I forgot, Elo should be added to this list too. :eye:

Even though she said she knows how she survived... it's interesting to note now several facts:

1) Daisy and Dana were vouching for each other for quite some time, hard.
2) The Master killed Daisy last night.
3) Metalmarsh, who is now revealed to be Lucy Saxon, was gunning after Dana hard, after abandoning it for a few cycles.
4) Guess who else said Dana was "bad, bad, bad"? Elo.

Eloh voted MM second to last though. And the reasoning she gave for doing it could hardly be considered distancing:

Why do you think I am not very civ? And why wouldn't a vote for Dana be a better alternative?
I didn't say I thought you were "not very civ" that is twisting words a bit. I said I thought Epi seems more civ than you. Meaning, I am more sure that Epi is civ than I am sure that you are.

As for Dana, why would I vote her when my vote would be meaningless?

Re: Dr. Who Mafia - Night 6

The Master: A renegade Time Lord and archenemy of The Doctor. As a child, he was forced to look into the Untempered Schism as all Time Lords did. However, he went insane as a result of this. The only thing he seeks is the death of The Doctor and the enslavement of the universe with himself as the ultimate ruler and ultimate Time Lord. He will stop at nothing to achieve these goals. Kills on odd nights. *Secrets* The first three attempts on his life will be blocked. Every night, he attempts to find Lucy Saxon, his wife/companion. If he finds her, they gain BTSC. Due to his strong ability as a hypnotist, once in the game he can force every night action that night to be randomly redirected to someone other than the original target. This is up to and including kill attempts.

Roxy wrote:Epi - you would have been ballsy enough to tip your hand and then use wifom for defense. You are a role checker or the role checker is on your team.
And why wouldn't they have checked Made or Enrique since both have been topic for discussion for some time now. That way they would know how to play it. You decided for a balls to the wall approach - which is pure Epi.
Roxy wrote:Epi - you could just say you aren't a robot for the lie detector, like zeek suggested but you didn't why?

Besides your refutation was not adequate - and if you are civ you would know "adequate " just doesn't cut it. give the lie detector something to check....

Chris check metalmarshs post he has been the only one lately working on them.
I'm ballsy enough to use WIFOM as my defense (I didn't. I used something called "math")- but I'm too scared to utter a statement for a lie detector? Bullshit.
Roxy wrote:I am sorry to not have been here sooner we had a dinner to attend and it ran longer than I expected. DP took care of MPATHG for me so I could vote then relax some.

So much of Made is this role Enrique is this role - how can anyone act so certain as to assign specific roles before the lynch is even over? I guess I am not smart enough to be able to place people in particular roles this early in a game. I guess a rolechecker could though :ponder:

That said I feel better about voting Made over Enrique just bc Made is acting differently this game. I am not sure I should trust Epi quite yet and after his replacing in I have no ideas where his allegience may lie. Ergo I don't want to trust a case made by someone I can't yet trust.

*votes Made*
Who assigned specific roles? This is something Roxy has accused me of but has not produced a shred of evidence to show it. In fact, I asked her where I did:
Epignosis wrote:
Roxy wrote:I am voting Enrique. If he shows as the role Epi said then I will be voting Epi until either him or me is dead.
Oh? What role was that? :ponder:
She said I claimed a role for Enrique. I didn't. She never answered my question. I know why she didn't. She can't.
Roxy wrote:Epi 2 put him into a role and did not stop there he put Made into a role too. Yet you are ignoring those facts.
Said it again, but can't show it.

This is how I know she has no faith in her case:
Roxy wrote:I am voting Enrique. If he shows as the role Epi said then I will be voting Epi until either him or me is dead.
She never said what role I said he'd flip (because I didn't have that information), but:
Roxy wrote:I will prob vote epi
Mostly bc I feel the case is stronger than Metal or MP. Besides I really feel MP is civ this game. he has that indignant quality to his posts.
That's a lack of conviction if I ever saw one. The case is stronger? What case? Hers? The one where I need role checker to kick ass? Sorry, I rock with a team or without one.

Hey Roxy! Guess what? I'm going to vote YOU until I die.

If you are a civvie, for god's sake, save yourself.

Epi doesn't believe in "playing like a civvie". This is the only thing he's said in this game that has given me pause since he replaced back in. But it isn't enough to change my mind, I will risk looking foolish~ I do it with class & style :lorab:

Re: Dr. Who Mafia - Night 4

I want to remind people why Roxy is voting for me.
Epignosis wrote:I see you suspect me as a Cyberman, Roxy.

I have been gunning for Enrique since the beginning. And I had Made pegged as Enrique's teammate for some time (since this post, if you want to know). A couple other posts reinforced that view, and even after I died, I still kept up. Unlike what you are accusing me of, I don't reveal all of my cards before the flop. I often bide my time on a given suspicion and see how things will play out. Now given that much, with Enrique's lynch and Made's lynch so close, I observed that Enrique voted quickly for Made, but Made refrained from voting for Enrique. A civilian with no BTSC would vote to save himself (except Ep1 :noble: ). Under the impression that they were teammates, that refusal to vote for Enrique made things clearer.

Let's assume your theory, that I am now a robot (well...I was a robot but never mind :smile: ) is true, and that I had info on Enrique and Made. This means that in three nights, the robot role checker would have had to have checked BOTH Made and Enrique, the latter of whom Ep1 happened to openly suspect- hard. My domain is language, not mathematics, but accounting for deaths and the fact that they wouldn't check their own crew, I estimate that the chance of both checks happening by Day 4 is 4.2%. Of course, that doesn't account for role blocks or the panoply of human interaction over the Internet. Finally, your theory means that I would have had to be willing to tip my hand to accomplish something that would happen without my intervention.

Which scenario is more likely?

They would not waste 8 nights if they just check the one that says I am a good girl. :p
She didn't vote for me, so she's doing better than you regardless of what she's read or hasn't read.

Re: Dr. Who Mafia - Day 6

Analysis incoming.

I am operating under WWED? or, "What would Epignosis Do?" I am also operating under the belief that Made and Enrique were teammates. Below are two lynch votes. One is where Enrique and Made were voted, and the second is when Enrique got lynched. Note that this doesn't account for switched votes.

Enrique
10
Epignosis (2), Black Rock (6), Bass_the_Clever (7), Snow Dog (8), sabie12 (12), Chris (15), Hedgeowl (22), keys56000000000 (23), Long Con (24), Spacedaisy (26) 36%

Made
14
S~V~S (4), DFaraday (9), Enrique (10), juliets (11), Turnip Head (13), Elohcin (14), Dom (17), zeek (18), nijuukyugou (19), Roxy (20), Gotrees (21), Dana (25), Made (27), MovingPictures07 (28) 50%

++++

Enrique
17
Black Rock (2), Hedgeowl (7), sabie12 (8), MovingPictures07 (9), Long Con (10), Epignosis (11), juliets (12), Elohcin (13), Bass_the_Clever (14), DFaraday (16), Dom (17), Snow Dog (18), Metalmarsh89 (19), Roxy (20), nijuukyugou (22), keys56000000000 (23), Spacedaisy (24) 65%

++++

So, do you want to lynch a Dalek or a Cyberman next?

If you want a Dalek, then:

S~V~S
juliets
Dom
nijuukyugou
Roxy
Gotrees
Dana
MovingPictures07

One of these eight are Dalek thingies.

MP isn't, because he's obvious as shit (sorry MP). Also, he's vouching for Dana, so she's out.
Gotrees has been very helpful. I'm giving him a pass because fuck it and welcome to The Syndicate.
Roxy voted for Made and then voted for Enrique and accused me of role checking. Roxy, I'm smart. Deal with it. Roxy's okay I think.
nijuujyugou is good. She has a tell. Unlike most tells, she has a GOOD tell, not a bad one. Looking forward to her harassing me at work over what that could be.
Dom's a smug arsehole. Good. Drives me nuts though.
juliets. She's right. I suck at reading her.
S~V~S. Annoying as shit. And civilian.

++++

If you want to lynch a Cyber dude, then it's a little tougher but I'm looking at the Snow Dog lynch:

Snow Dog lynch:

Snow Dog
6
zeek (16), Enrique (22), Gotrees (24), MovingPictures07 (27), Dana (28), Metalmarsh89 (29)
21%

Tell me a Cyber dude didn't vote there. However, zeek was killed by them, and Enrique was Dalek. MP I think is good and he is good with Dana. So:

Gotrees? Who the hell knows. But he's helpful.

MM? Dalek according to others. I think he's Cyber.

I'll leave the baddie hunting to you. I'm too busy lynching them.
That's a lot of confidence coming from someone who hasn't named a single suspect since voting for Enrique early on D5, as far as I can remember.
I spent this afternoon writing my lie detector defense, dealing with children, and helping with cakes. I have not finished the post I started. And now I'm watching 2 hours of TV. I have 48 hours in a Day. And it's the weekend. No hurries and no worries.

And I agree, this use of the LD DOES suck, but again, the cat is out of the bag. We don't like it, but it is what it is. You can say all these noble things, but I do think that you are not willing to say you are not a robot because you are one. In this life.

I am not a robot. Five easy words to type. And an LD can detect a sentence said at any time, not just at night. He detects at night, but the statement can be made any time.
I actually did say it, but you don't read my posts.

Re: Dr. Who Mafia - Day 6

Preface: This post deals with the lie detector business, just in case you don't care about that. If you do, here you are:
juliets wrote:Epi I am looking forward to whatever you have for us this afternoon and I'm inclined right now to think you are civ. What I don't understand is why in hell you just don't make the robot statement so all of us can put that behind us. As a civ, do you really want us to spend so much time on that one issue? SVS said maybe you are possibly saying "I am what I am"; I just think you are being plain ole' stubborn. Or, you're not civ and there's a reason why you don't want to make that statement, a reason that I cannot see when I read your original statement about role-checking. I guess there is the possibility that you are civ and don't want to make that statement but I don't see any robots in the civ characters. I have to say the whole thing causes me some uneasiness because it could so easily be dispensed with.
When I made my statement, I noted that it's difficult to find a statement you're allowed to check. Some hosts do not allow "I am not a baddie" to be checked, for example. Furthermore, I have not seen a single minute of Dr. Who. I know that in my previous incarnation, I was a robotic canine. No way in hell was I about to research each of the characters to see if they were androids or some other non-biological entity. And are Daleks robots? I don't know. Three of them look like robots, but the Dalek Sec sure as hell doesn't. Is the Dalek Sec what those things look like underneath their armor? "I am not a robot" is a flawed statement from my perspective. Therefore, I crafted what I considered to be the most comprehensive sentence. In retrospect, I could have used a different verb tense in my statement to provide it the airtight nature Long Con was looking for, but I didn't. Sorry.

As I've said before, I don't reveal all of my cards before the flop. By refusing to capitulate, I get to watch how people react to that. I get to watch how people react to the reactions. Plus I get a little suspicion kept on me, which is a healthy thing, if you can dig it. If you're of the mindset that my refusal must mean I'm bad, then not only is your conclusion false, you're missing the forest for the trees.

The most recent criticism against me is that I didn't do exactly what zeek wanted. First, we don't know exactly what zeek wanted, but for once I'll be reasonable and not argue that particular point. ;) Second, if you will consider the context of my statement, you may note that zeek did not ask me what he did out of the blue. He asked me because Roxy was under the impression that I had info. Nope- just paying good attention. When I phrased my statement, I was conscious of Roxy's suspicion. I had her in the forefront of my mind when I made it (even if she didn't notice it Image). Third, zeek was around after I made my statement. He even posted to tell us that he's awesome at code cracking, that there are no lynch stops, and that there's not one single capote (thank God for that). It would not have been difficult for him to express dissatisfaction with my sentence; that he did not in the span of two hours leads me to believe that my statement satisfied him. Finally, zeek asking me to make another statement during the Day (i.e., when he wasn't insane) wouldn't be useful until the next Night (since lie detectors don't detect during the Day).

Regarding lie detectors in general: I like them, but I've decided that I don't like the way they are used: "Make a statement or you're bad!" Should I ever include them in one of my games in the future, it will be a secret. If the game maker wanted the lie detector to be a role or alignment checker, it would have been so. Also, people shouldn't harangue me about the wording of my statement until they've made statements of their own, but that's just one fellow's opinion. Moving forward, I refuse to offer statements for a lie detector, regardless of my alignment. Just a head's up.

So my refusal to comply with this request could be any combination of the above reasons.

Or spite. :D
