Sorry, we already have a wombat.

^That answers my question.

Goodness gracious, it's been a while.. howdy mafia friends, new and old!

Okay, so it is Day 1 now apparently. No more time for goofing off!

Bah, really? I was going to see what I could come up with tonight, and the contest didn't even last that long. But I suppose since you said we could PM you I still will do so and post mine in the thread and PM them to you.

Excuse me, I'm not the one who made a contest last for less than half a day. Some people have lives you know.

So, whom are we going to lynch?

What say you, llama, how about a non-poster?

It's early yet, but I could get behind that. As I've said many times, a non-posting civ is almost as bad as a baddie, so there's not much to lose.

I agree. I say we petition to get the contest extended through Day 1, especially since it's something that IMO can take so much thought. That OR if anyone else PMs theirs in I say they should post them too!

This idea would statistically decrease my chances of winning, so I strenuously oppose it.

I'm not even sure I will do that, but there's no sense in not discussing it.

Frankly, I thought it was a bit weird that FZ. brought up her point that players could be suspicious for engaging in the contest. It's true baddies could be just as likely to want to win as civvies, but I don't see why that would be any lead whatsoever.

Though I guess it'd be better than randomizing, so.

I was going to respond and say that I don't think it was weird of her, because I think it was a post that was aimed at trying to get the game going rather than have everyone just joke around (Because afterall, someone has to be the first to be serious, right?) but now that I think about it, I am not so sure that her post is as innocent as I thought. I say this because the most recent game where she was a townie, over on KSITE, she was not fond of me being so serious over a Day 1 poll. The situation is not identical but there could be something there.

TH and Juliets played that game, so I wonder if they make anything of it?

I know you folks over at KSite are right out of the gates, and I've only played a few games with FZ. so I can't attest to how weird it is, but nonetheless the thought itself struck me as weird -- like it was too forced at pushing the game into a serious direction, instead of letting it happen organically.

That's my ping anyway. It could be right, it could be wrong, maybe I'm full of shit.

I would be glad to hear what others think.

What do you think? Usually you have an opinion by now, don't you?

I've expressed my opinion in that post, it could go either way. I have no real opinion as of right now. I don't have a lot of opinions because the game has yet to take a serious turn and for once I'm not trying to push it because unlike Ksite I find it doesn't work all that well on this site. So I was letting it happen 'organically'.

One thing was that more people had checked in than I thought, and I read the room as being eager to get on with the game (a sentiment I 100% shared).

I am totally with it now (I think), so it should go more smoothly from here on. Anyway, I agree completely that contest submissions should be posted in-thread and not PMed to me so that all can enjoy. I am also amenable to extending the contest deadline until the end of Day 1 so that everyone had a chance to participate. Let common sense and prudence prevail! So rule I, Host Rsusit.

Why are you so set (you've mentioned it more than once, I wasn't sure if you were serious) on a low poster vote though? I can understand if we were farther into the day and nothing happened but the day just only started. I think instead of planning on voting for a non participant we should start digging around and see if anything warrants suspicion and if not, then we vote a low poster.

And I'm not quite sure why you admitted to wanting to see how people react. Now their walls are up concerning anything you say. But we'll see if you find anything noteworthy even now, I guess!

k4j, my first gut response to what FZ. said was that she was trying to shift us into what we were supposed to be doing, trying to find baddies. I thought she was just throwing out an idea for discussion like I saw her do at the game on ksite. I'll have to go back and try to read the beginning of the game we played because I don't remember her getting at you for being so serious (though god knows, I can't remember a lot of things from that game! ) So, your thoughts give me pause. I'll be interested to see what TH has to say.

I agree with this, stating from the get-go that you plan to vote for a non poster this early opens it up for baddies to remind their teammates to post so they don't get got. It's better to discuss voting that way later on if nothing else comes up.

I do remember that FZ got on your case for taking the Day 0 discussion too seriously in the KSite game k4j. Not sure what it means here, like juliets said I think FZ is just eager to start the proper discussion, much like you were in that game.

Usually I am down with a no-poster vote on Day 1, but man, I'm just not feeling it today. Maybe it's because I've had a decent hiatus and want to vote someone for merit-based reasons, but I'm still unsure.

FZ's comment would have seriously pinged me coming from anyone else, but she has been like this in every game I've played with her, so I don't think anything of it. She just really wants to kill baddies on Day 0.

It's early yet, but I could get behind that. As I've said many times, a non-posting civ is almost as bad as a baddie, so there's not much to lose.

Can you elaborate on your comment about me, whether you thought it was strange that I thought baddies wanted to win (which is completely not what I said), or the fact that I said the contest made it easier for baddies to blend in and like other said, came off as aggressive?

Because if it's the former, than you just misunderstood and I meant that it's the kind of conversation that helps the baddies blend in, because they can participate without having to fear what they say can be used against them. I think it's pretty obvious.
If it's the latter, it makes me more concerned, because I would expect that comment from people who haven't played with me, not those who have. I'm trying to give you the benefit of the doubt because it's been a while since we played together, and we didn't play that much, but like llama said, I like to get the game moving early on, and people who know me, know that, and I thought of you as someone who should know that.

As for K4J, you worried me there for a moment, with your comment about how I suspected you for being too serious last game we played together, and now I was being too serious, because I don't think it was like that at all, because I felt someone should mention that this isn't going to lead us anywhere and maybe progress the conversation, but I think I was far from being too serious. But I see you repented, so it makes me feel better about you, because why post that last post if it wasn't genuine (still, after last game, I'm going to be a lot more watchful with you.)

In any case, I have to admit that this is something I struggle with here on TS every game. Too much time of trying to do nothing, and then people either randomly vote, or even worse, self vote, or just vote for the no shows.

Now, I have my eye on someone, but I want to see what that person will say further into the day, so I'll decide who I want to vote for when I come back on Saturday before the deadline. And thanks for making the deadline on Saturday, Russ, it's so much better for me

One other thing, I see people pointing fingers at MP for "pushing" for a low poster. I agree that it's too early to decide such a thing, but going after MP for that seems too easy. I always want to vote for those who are not around because I think why the heck sign up if you're not going to play, and it makes it harder for the civs to figure out who is scum. But even though I say it and want it, I usually do it only if I really don't have a reason to vote for someone else. So far, MP hasn't voted...I think. So to me, it seems more like him talking the big talk in order to move the conversation along. Even though I didn't like what he said about me, at the moment, he seems like the person who's moving the game along the most, and for that reason, I think I don't like those who are targeting him. Now I need to go back and see who they were. Damn, this game is too big

Yep! They're different, though, I promise! I had 2 ideas for a role like that and really liked both of them, so I kept them both in.

I think it's best we clarify this from the beginning: Monsieur le Host, how will you be dealing with non-participants (no votes and/or no PMs)?

When I play I normally try to avoid lynching non-participants, except for a few occasions when I was bad, because that is usually a baddie tactic. However, in the X-Men game, 3 baddies out of 7 were basically non-participants, so it's not always civillians. In our Harry Potter game, we used to punish people who wouldn't vote or send in their PMs with a +1 vote the next day which was cumulative, depending on how many votes you missed. I know this may have seemed a bit extreme, especially when we had to modkill 3 people because they didn't participate, but we thought it wasn't fair towards the others who actively posted and voted, and who were thus more vulnerable.

Exactly! That's partly what the Gold mechanic is for. I believe in positive reinforcement of desirable behavior, so you get rewarded for participating instead of being punished for not participating. Not participating will set you back, though, since you won't get Gold from voting in polls and doing contests and such. I'm actually hoping the gold bonus will be enough to exactly compensate players who are participating for the risk they take by putting themselves out there. Economics ftw!

We'll see how it works out. However, I do not have any plans to modkill players for lack of participation at this time. If player participation is a big issue a few days from now, I would more likely ask deadies to sub in for non-participants than killing off their roles. If that happened, I would likely retroactively award Gold to the player subbing in based on their level of participation in their first role.

Thanks! Hopefully it won't be an issue. I just remembered how we struggled with it, and we did end up using deadies as replacements, but you can do that for so long.

And you reminded me of this



I should go dig for this album one of these days.

I wasn't really in much of a mood for mafia yesterday, but I'm back now! Have more pressing issues in another game but I'll catch up soon and see if there's anything worth saying. Probably not considering it's day one

Can anyone tell me if this back and forth banter between llama and Mongoose a regular thing? Because it seems little like distancing. Something along the lines of : If the two were working together they wouldn't be going at each other like that in a playful obvious way...

It is actually a daily occurrence because we are very close friends IRL. Yeah, we were just joking around. Unless my first barb was in fact serious and then he would proceed to bring down the hammer upon my sneaky self.

I have no desire to go after him for nonsense reasons because that's one snake you can't untangle easily from your legs. In fact, I really really really thought he was bad in the speed game and he wasn't and I still feel really bad about it, so it would have to be something uber-compelling to have me lean that way (and not very likely at all on Day 1).

(Also, glad you are okay!)

Would anyone like to make a wager than Vompatti will vote for Vompatti?

Good host analysis, Lizzy.

Larger games are always more difficult for me like I said when I sign up, so I have no idea who I'm looking at for my lynch vote yet.

Like I said before, I'm a wombat.

Sorry, we already have a wombat.
