I would hope that silencing wouldn't be a thing in a scenario where we are split into groups.

Why not? If there is a silencing role or roles, I'd assume that role/those roles would still go through...I don't see why not?

Yes, this.

I don't think BR is silenced. Hopefully she will get in here. I know she just hasn't played Mafia in a while, so it's hard for her to fit time for it into her normal routine.

Keyword is hope. Silencing is lame in general.

Prof? Where are you at in terms of suspicions?

@Quin lorab answered the same as me we both posted about seeing 3 instances of mentioning the other thread etc. I was acknowledging that.

I wouldn't call one post quite a bit, but I did answer his questionnaire. Also I did mention my suspicion of Floyd, which I still hold to. It felt like taking an easy way out by leeching onto the nearest suspicion like a brain slug. It's even more obvious that that's what he was doing since DH's post clearly wasn't a serious point against Priz anyway.

#105

Here's the Priz meme again.

I'm in.

#106

DrWilgy wrote:Here's the Priz meme again.

No, that's over. Priz meme doesn't mean BTSC anymore. It's an accepted nickname.

#107

However, I will place a vote on Farnsworth until he gives a full explanation of his Floyd suspicion.

Voting for sockpuppets is a victimless crime - like punching someone in the dark!

#108

#109

I think I'll take this opportunity to vote LC.

Or I just plain forgot.

#111

Well this kinda sucks. I don't have any suspicions of any one in the hatch. Mafia is hard.

Why?

Voted Floyd.

LC, what do you think I should ve suspicious of you for (if anything).

#117

DrWilgy wrote:LC, what do you think I should be suspicious of you for (if anything).

The timing of my Macdougall vote. It was just when things started to really turn around on him - at least at the time it was cast. I don't know if I used the term "slam dunk case", but it felt really great at the time. I do know I used the term "smoking gun" to describe Metalmarsh's joke-post-twin discovery, and voted very soon after, based on that.

I did think it was a very convincing case, and I kind of assumed that a lot of other people would as well. With a projected snowball like that, the best time for a teammate to get on board was sooner, and I would say that time was just flirting with passing at the time of my vote.

Otherwise, I don't think there's much to suspect me for. Ask DH, he seems to have some opinions, though they currently remain wrapped in enigmatic aloofness. I'm not sure if he's reaction-baiting, or carefully building his own place within the game, or if it's a genuine suspicion.

#118

Thanks for the response LC, were there any others whose timing you think is worse than your own?

#119

DrWilgy wrote:Thanks for the response LC, were there any others whose timing you think is worse than your own?

Probably later is worse-looking, although knowing the timing of when the voters were online is a factor. I, of course, have insider knowledge about when Black Rock gets online, which is why I tend to avoid talking about her too much in the game. Then the last vote was... Coltrane?

Hard for me to condemn someone for voting Mac when I voted Mac. As I said earlier in here, I don't have a strong suspicion of anyone on the Mac train. Maybe some baddie tried to elevate their game into Champion Mode and voted before me. That would be impressive, and too well done for me to figure out.

Sorry, I shouldn't have asked the Hosts.

Better to ask for forgiveness than for permission, I say.

#124

I AM A BADDIE AND NO ONE WILL BELIEVE YOU CUZ THIS THREAD IS GETTING REDACTED

#125

Fuck there's like a whole day left to vote nevermind I'm a civ.

#126

My vote is on LC for now because:

A) My original points from the first thread
B) His defensive reaction to the "Hm" posts
C) His MacDougall Vote
D) General vibes.

#127

Maybe you should reiterate A) a little, I don't specifically remember what you were saying.

#128

Long Con wrote:Maybe you should reiterate A) a little, I don't specifically remember what you were saying.

Your initial entry into the thread was aggressively minded, even if it was a joke. Its a hoaky psuedo-suspicion but I've got nothing to lose since I'm retired so if I'm right I'm right.

#129

Aggressively-minded, eh? Ok, let's leave that till we get back, not sure what I did exactly. Unless I get lynched today, then we don't have to wait!

Do you really want to get into it with me? I'm almost tempted, just due to the lack of action currently in the thread.

Or we could focus on someone else.

Or we could focus on you. What are you all about this game? You're carving yourself some sort of unique niche. What's that all about? It's nice and ballsy, the kind of thing I look at and say "Yeah, I should do something like that someday!"

#130

I just have my vote on you for now, I wouldn't feel more or less comfortable with a sig or a floyd vote. They happen to be suspiciously absent though.

It's essentially Day 1 again for me, since I missed 1/2 of the Day 1 discussion and didn't get the opportunity I thought I would to re-read it.

If you wanna square up, we can.

#132

I saw Floyd online earlier, later than it was first referenced - somewhere above, "ennui or BTSC?" I don't really feel like reading the thread multiple times without posting leads me to believe BTSC. Seems more like silencing. That's a whole other can of worms. He certainly wasn't silenced in the Main Thread, and yet, not much content.

I didn't ask you to explain the details of your vote on me. "I just have my vote on you for now", sure dude, thanks for letting me know. I was as interested as you to see what would happen. That's why I didn't respond to it. Then Sorsha asked why, and you acted all aloof, with a smarmy answer instead of something that anyone in the thread can ever use or reference seriously.

Later you decided to do what you should have done in the first place: explain some reasons for your vote. Like... what was it all about before? Reaction fishing? Sure, I guess it has its merits, but it didn't go so well from what I saw. Very little response, you need to bait your hook better if that's the case.

If it's any consolation, you got thew best rise out of me with B). So close to starting it up over that.

Linki: I'm your huckleberry

#133

Sorry guys, mega long day, souble shift. My thoughts are the same as this morning. I have another double tmorrow, so I'll tune in around lunch and figure out where my vote will go. I could see a MacD vote, but in case he is silenced, MACD you need to post in other non-mafia areas of the site to show that you are around but can't post in here.

Dude.. I don't know how to break it to you... Macdougall is dead. We lynched him already. He was bad. He's not silenced, I get it, it's hard, but.. he's not coming back.

#135

Oof, I mean Floyd, sorry I'm so tired.

#136

Hope you got some sleep.

#137

I'm disappointed with the activity in here. Sig hasn't even posted, I'm thinking maybe we should just do the Main Thread a favour and lynch him today, to end the sig debate and get to start a little fresher on Day 3.

#138

Why do you constantly assume my suspicion of you is only to bait reactions to it

I may vote sign in this thread but I may also get you lynched in the main thread.

#139

Sig, not sign.

I don't think "constantly" is appropriate.

And it's your method of accusing me that lead me to that conclusion. You vote without explanation, and then you were asked why, and you fluffed it off. Then 7 hours later - one might say, after you didn't get the reactions you hoped to see one way or another - you come back and list your reasons.

#141

I dunno about you, LC. I just don't know.

Priz said something about his "sources" telling him something.

DH was like, "Sources? YOU MUST HAVE BADDIE BTSC!" in an obviously joking manner.

Then Floyd came along like, "Yeah, that sounds good." *votes Priz*

He also, to my recollection did not mention Priz again after that point (if he even posted at all afterwards). I know the word opportunistic gets thrown around a lot on here, but there's no better way to describe Floyd's vote. Hiding behind someone else's suspicion then offering no independent thought on the matter.

I'll go ahead and vote Floyd for now. I wouldn't be opposed to a sig lynch either, but I don't actively suspect him the way I do Floyd.

Paprika · #143

Wilgy, why did you vote me?

#144

Maybe I'll vote Floyd. At least for now.

Thanks, Professor.

I'm going to change my vote to sig for now. I'm also cool with a Floyd lynch.

If Sig is silenced, this is the scummiest thing I've read this game lol.

Since he hasn't been online since last Tuesday I don't think silence is the case. I may be able to support this idea.

#147

What if Floyd is silenced?

#148

Professor Farnsworth wrote:Wilgy, why did you vote me?

Idk, same reason why I'd be willing to vote BR, Sig, BWT, or Sriracha. I got a whole lotta null from you.

You just happened to be the player in that group to use the "Priz" meme.

I'm hesitant to vote Floyd atm due to me not trusting Quin. I think I'm seeing "Hey, I'm off the ballot! Time to be lazy" Quin.

I'm hesitant to trust LC currently. I've been tone reading him bad. I can't pin point this though, and it's not a vote worthy read.

Lastly I'm finding myself agreeing with DH often. Perhaps too often, and I should reevaluate.

#149

Long Con wrote:What if Floyd is silenced?

Idk. He was here earlier today.

Floyd isn't a bad vote really. Kinda the same case as Sig in which I'd be OK with him being lynched for the sake of advancing discussion. My reason to vote Sig over Floyd is that Quin thing.

...but you wouldn't consider your statement as among the scummiest of the game?
