I'm not understanding this game yet. I'll get into it soon though.

Re: Romance of the Three Kingdoms [Day 2]
So far my biggest suspicions are MM and Dom. I think JJJ made a good case for connections between MM and Wilgy, and Dom is not fully addressing the points made against him and, I suspect, hiding behind a posting gimmick.
Bubbles' votes seemed random, but not unusual for Bubbles.

That's not really answering the question of why you voted Scotty and JJJ. And you think Bass is a good guy?Dom wrote:Lyin' Scotty is teaming up with Tricky Jay in an alliance to take me down!Scotty wrote: -Domald voted for me and JJJ. Let's see what he had to say about suspicions:Wait, that's funny. It looks like he meant to vote DF and Bass, but accidentally voted for me and JJJ. Whoops, must be some mistake. Because I just reread all his posts multiple times, and the only time he expressed any sort of sentiment toward me is when I criticized his posting gimmick and he called me "sad". He doesn't really mention JJJ as far as I can tell.Dom wrote:And there's this DFaraday guy. This DFaraday guy-- he's just... well.. do I have to say it? He's not good. No good at all. Lies and twisting the fact like the crooked media. Rooting against me.DFaraday wrote:I'm not liking Dom's rationale regarding Bass. Since Bass is generally a low poster, that feels like Dom is setting up an easy excuse for voting down the road.
Also Sorsha wanting to vote prefects sounds like a bad idea to me. I get the impression that prefects have important abilities or something, so why would we want to put them up to lynch right away?
Listen folks, Bass better stay active. Otherwise he's saying empty promises and looking to be ignored. That's just despicable. We, as a game, cannot let him get away with this, folks.
(c) Paid for by Dom/NJU 2016.
Dom and Bubbles are my top priorities today. I will most likely be voting there.
Why would I vote bass? Right now-- I think Bass is a good guy. That could change. I have explained why in the past. You can look it up-- plenty have written about it.
Folks, don't trust Lyin' Scotty and Tricky Jay. Lyin' Scotty looked for an opportunity to seize power without any sort of content. Tricky Jay has used bad thinking all game. Not good, folks, not good.

Also, you say that you think Bass is a good guy, a claim which is not supported by your previous interactions with Bass:

If you aren't active, let's just say something else might be going on. I don't know what, but something else! Believe me. For sure !

So first you establish a potential suspicion of Bass to come back to later, but don't actually vote him, instead going with guys you haven't provided reasoning for. Then when questioned, you've thought Bass was good all along? Dom is flip-flopping more than...some sort of public official.

Re: Romance of the Three Kingdoms [Day 2]
Actually, I think I misread Dom's statement a bit. He thinks Bass is good now, but didn't necessarily before. Still, no reasoning is given for any of this.

This sounds like she thought that the two most voted people would have some sort of task to complete at the end of the day. I could go on a little more about this but I'd like Bubbles to come back and clarify her thinking here first. What were you thinking, Bubbles? What did the duelists have to do, did you think? What would happen in the end?Bubbles wrote:Ok I voted JJJ and Scotty because I would like to see a dual between them, and they seem like they'd put up a good fight from what I know from their past games

I don't like Dom's vote either. Not gonna quote it, because I don't feel like looking at huge chunks of text right now. I've written two reports in four days, with massive lack-of-tooth aches in between, if I might add.
3J did a good job of highlighting the relationship between Wilgy and the marmot. 3J, you mentioned that marmot voted Wilgy both for prefect and for the duel, though separately. Put them together, and I think it's suspicious for someone to vote to lynch someone the day after they tried to put them in power.

Re: Romance of the Three Kingdoms [Day 1]
I'm somewhat puzzled by this post of yours, Sorsha. You made this statement five hours out from EoD 1. You then proceeded to engage with (some might even say, 'antagonise') two of your potential nominees (Scotty and 3J) for the next half hour before leaving, saying that you intended to return but never did I'm just wondering, did you change your mind? You seemed rather adamant to me - if there was some doubt about you returning before the deadline, why did you not cast your vote when you had the chance?Sorsha wrote:Dom is making me laugh so I'm not voting for him.

hi all to explain the last post, yeah i wasnt exactly sure what a duel was !

I'm just worried that even though you thought it was going to be like that, you intended on either 3J or Scotty being lynched.

I had places to go and things to do.... I thought I'd be back to vote and intended on voting but I don't know who I would have voted for. Scotty wasn't one of the prefects I'd have voted for so I probably would have voted to save him from the duel, not that he needed it apparently. I don't know if I'd have voted for prefects at all, I wanted to see whose feathers got ruffled, it does irk me a bit that INH promised to be an active player if he was prefect an he has now vanished.Glorfindel wrote:I'm somewhat puzzled by this post of yours, Sorsha.

Yellow Turban has kill protection.
Nanman kill fails.
Don't limit yourself to "would they use it or not?" Think of passive abilities. Some roles are just hard to kill.

Re: Romance of the Three Kingdoms [Day 2]
I'm here. I came in about halfway through D1 and read the first part of the thread, but couldn't finish reading it before D1 ended because I had to write flavor for the game I'm hosting. Looks like we hit scum on our first lynch though, which is good.
I guess I can provide a little insight on an inactive player, leetic. He's sick and subbed out of my game, so I doubt that he'll be in this one.
I'm due for a reread. I'll try and come up with some thoughts on active players. Is there any way I can find the past vote count?
Also if anyone wants me to focus on anything specific during the reread, or if anyone wants my specific thoughts on a player or interaction, let me know.

Re: Romance of the Three Kingdoms [Day 2]
Considering the visible differences between Nanman and the Yellow Turbans (two more players and much stronger dueling strength for the Nanman), I think it's probable that there is night kill protection somewhere among the Yellow Turban secrets. There aren't many better ways to attempt to re-balance those factions that I can think of. I suspect the secrets for the Turbans are extensive and powerful either way.
It's pretty speculative. I do agree with Glorfindel that there's a better-than-usual probability that at least one of the kills was missed, given the prevalence of quiet players and missed votes we've observed so far.

It's pretty speculative.

Every time a night 1 kill doesn't happen I see someone deduce that was because inactive players, and I have never seen that come true.JaggedJimmyJay wrote:Considering the visible differences between Nanman and the Yellow Turbans (two more players and much stronger dueling strength for the Nanman), I think it's probable that there is night kill protection somewhere among the Yellow Turban secrets. There aren't many better ways to attempt to re-balance those factions that I can think of. I suspect the secrets for the Turbans are extensive and powerful either way.

If the mafia has one active player, they will be able to send actions for others. So for this to come true the entire mafia would have to be inactive. That's statistically unlikely.
I'm willing to buy it if night kills keep not happening, but for now I'll just be thankful for our luck and keep playing the game normally.

I appreciate the civ label because I am, but your defense of me is slightly hollow.
I could also be anything, and just rolled better than Wilgy, so this argument is not the best way to guard my alignment.
This thinking, it's not wrong, folks.

The only person who knows the answer to that is the person who did it. I can do as much as guess:Bass_the_Clever wrote:JJJ why do you think some one would come out and call you bad in the right up?
This person suspects me to be bad, realizes that I tend to be difficult to lynch without behind-the-scenes influence, and tried to use his/her role power to motivate other people toward making that happen instead of compiling a case (which might genuinely be less effective for that objective).

Bubbles' votes seemed random, but not unusual for Bubbles.
To say I have hidden, behind some posting gimmick, I mean-- people, people, are we serious here? I have made plenty of good points with my very good brain. To swipe them aside and begin to say that I haven't addressed controversy is just wrong. It's wrong.

You must *misread* all of my statements, Crooked DFaraday. I set up a conditional where if Bass didn't follow through, then I would think he is bad.

Expect gigantic MP catchup post some time within the next 24 hours. Probably towards the latter end of that spectrum though. It will happen.
Just realized the first day of Fall '16 isn't tomorrow, but Tuesday, so I don't have to teach my first class until Wednesday. I love teaching, but given my current time crunch, that was a pleasant surprise of extra time.

@Dom
I'm also surprised to see any assertion that me deliberately pursuing a spotlight position in a game is "out of character". Are you confusing me with someone else? :P

Re: Romance of the Three Kingdoms [Day 2]
I don't think assuming no night kill = lurkers is a good idea. This seems like a good way to just duel through the lurkers and not have any responsibility if they flip civ. It could've just as easily been blocked, the killer might've been jailed, ect there is a never ending amount of things that could've happened to stop the kill. I believe it is to early to make an assumption that the killer was a non participating player. Having said that I do think Wilg y calling out Lorab was odd.'Glorfindel wrote:Given there was no NK, may we assume that Zhang Jiao is one of the non participating players in this game so far? Someone who perhaps didn't post from the latter part of Day 1 onwards perhaps?
I disagree with you here JJJ how do we know INH's vote was random? Assuming they have BTSC Wilgy and INH could've easily preplanned this. I believe I mentioned that early in day 0 as well.JaggedJimmyJay wrote:Wilgy had 4 votes in the prefect race. I found the posts denoting each of those votes:

I am also voting Wilgy in honour of our epic Attack on Titan victory a while back. If Gleam were here I'd have voted the both of them.The reasons offered by MM and Bullzeye are both references to different Mafia games, which strikes me as a nice excuse to promote a team mate's candidacy for prefect. INH's vote was motivated by something totally random (Buscemi eyes), which alarms me a bit less. INH had less direct control over who would post Buscemi eyes. Jan limited his votes to people he knows, which may or may not be accurate (I dunno who he knows, this is my first game with him).Jan wrote:I'm voting for Sig and DrWilgy, both of whom I know.
Don't vote for me, people. I'm not familiar with the concept that much and I won't be very active probably either.
I think there's a decent chance a member of the Nanman team propped up Wilgy for prefect, and if that's the case I'd lean to MM or Bullzeye.
To address Nutella, I said multiple times I wouldn't be very active this game. I just moved into my dorm and college classes are staring soon plus I have other obligations.
I'm posting as I'm reading.

Re: Romance of the Three Kingdoms [Day 2]
We don't "know" it was random, but I do think it's a higher probability of being random than MM's or Bullzeye's votes which were placed independent of any in-game conditions. Even if there's a BTSC plan to post Buscemi eyes, it's plausible for a townie to still post them first and screw that up. This doesn't exonerate INH; I just think his vote is less suspicious than the other two.sig wrote:I disagree with you here JJJ how do we know INH's vote was random?

Okay, I think it is an equal probability, or it is possible that it is more likely for mafia to do that. True a townie could come in and screw it up, but I think that is highly unlikely. If it was planned ahead of time.

Re: Romance of the Three Kingdoms [Day 2]
Frankly I think it's already unlikely that a baddie team decided in BTSC to concoct a "Buscemi eyes" scheme in the first place. The entire conversation starts with that complete speculation.sig wrote:Okay, I think it is an equal probability, or it is possible that it is more likely for mafia to do that.
