They don't have to talk during the hour they are on the thread. It's like Party Mafia, you don't huddle in a corner talking to your BTS while everyone else is looking.

juliets, what are you thinking?

#204

Strategic thoughts for civvies. While this is definitely still forum mafia, It's going to be difficult to keep up with thread as well as rereading post to develop theories, So keep that in mind. In that sense anyways, this game will probably be more like party mafia than traditional forum.

No, I don't want a bandwagon. I want people to come to their own conclusions, which is why I'm not revealing my ping yet.

Well, with no one really having much to go on, coming out with a ping might provoke a bandwagon. I think you should just say it, but by the time I am finished typing, you will have said it i am sure

No. I'm not thinking about voting you at this point. I am thinking abut voting MP for pretending like my idea is false even though I have reason to believe it isn't too. I myself have gotten lynched early for randomizing. I have never gotten lynched for voting a low poster.

#213

MovingPictures07 wrote:juliets, what are you thinking?

i have no clue who is bad. I don't see anyone who is acting suspicious. I do not know at this point what I'm doing with my vote.

So do you have any thoughts on things other than the mechanics, Made?

So civvies don't get distracted rereading while thread is moving a million miles a minute. Found myself doing that a moment ago, and now i'm behind.

Okay, since my ping has cased to be a ping in the intervening hustle, I will say it.

It was Alex.

I no longer think he is bad though. His whole "we should look at people acting normal" thing and aggressive jump on Roxy pinged me, but then I realized that he is being exactly like himself, which, according to his own theory, means I should vote for him!

I'm not going to though.

#218

Let the record show that splints is intending to vote me because she disagrees with me, not because anything I'm doing is actually suspicious.

Carry on.

Your refusing to see other sides of it makes you suspicious to me.

Epi may be lynched today if you feel inclined. He may also be targeted tonight if he is not lynched.

You misrepresent me.

I did not say someone acting like him or herself is bad.

I said someone trying too hard to act like him or herself, while not appearing to genuinely contribute, lends one's self to being bad.

Maybe should stop posting things like they are fact when they aren't true?

trying to use mechanics to find mafia.

You have expressed that you have a different empirical data set than I do.

Nonetheless, I still believe my assessment to be true.

You said it wasn;t true and I was wrong. How is that allowing me to be entitled to my belief?

Explain to me how that's not just "disagreeing" with me then.

#231

thellama73 wrote:MM: were the roles randomized or hand picked?

Both.

Roles were randomly picked by my hand.

#232

thanks for letting us know MM but i see epi acting like epi so I dont think i will be voting him today or this hour.

#233

You are wrong, but you're entitled to be wrong all you want.

#234

There is no empiricism in Mafia

#237

MovingPictures07 wrote:Explain to me how that's not just "disagreeing" with me then.

Because I disagree, but there is still the initial issue at hand. You thinking that someone is more suspicious for posting in advance that they want to randomize over multiple people who posted they would lynch a low poster. Then you said "well lama has gotten lynched for that" but ignored that it was MULTIPLE people not just llama who suggested the low poster thing, so your empirical data doesn't even apply since its about one person not the many in question.

#238

Im here but apparently i got replaced.
:/

#239

I've seen game after game when no player ever gets called out for a random vote on D1. I however have seen multiple games on this site ALONE where someone who dares speak of low poster voting on D1 gets bandwagoned. I therefore hold a belief that intent to vote a randomizer is more suspicious than intent to vote a low poster.

Splints disagrees with me.

She thinks I'm bad.

Makes sense, right?

#240

LMAO, Llama, that was great.

You of all people should know though that I don't agree with Friedman's positivism. :P

How does it not apply? That's your opinion. Of course it applies. It's MY belief system.

Disagree all you want.

#242

Nine minutes to vote. Observations.
Alex is being Alex.
Rob is being quiet.
Juliets is being blendy (which is typical of her.)
Fingerslints is being confrontational (could be civ on civ, but makes me wonder.)
SVS is being slightly subdued.

Quite often that bandwagon follows on Day Two when a quiet civ was lynched on Day One, though, is that not true? I think voting low posters is lazy, and doing the baddies job for them. So I always think it is bad. Although i try to grit my teeth when Llama does it becasue he always does it.

#244

Whatever. I'm voting MP.

He continues to push that his belief is better then mine because its off this site alone that hasn't been around that long. I'm basing my beliefs off of what I know, not what he thinks is true.

I believe that MP is good, so I'm voting you.

I hope this isn't civ on civ, but I have a bad feeling about you this game.

I'm being confrontational because I'm just being told point blank that I am wrong and its rubbing me seriously the wrong way

I'm voting splints.

Of course my belief is better than yours, IMO, that's why I believe it. You trying to push me as bad because I disagree with you on randomizing is absolutely ridiculous.

"I'm basing my beliefs off of what I know, not what he thinks is true"?

Am I not doing the same thing?

Hypocritical. I think she had to find someone to vote for and knows how easy I am to get lynched.

Part of it is because that is the way Alex is. Part of it is because you are wrong.

#250

I am gonna vote Made, talking mechanics rather than game is what most caught my eye. I see a sockwagon forming and I don't know that MP would start a whole "random=evol" thing were he bad, and Roxy always randoms, so not seeing anything there to get my eye.
