She put the responsibility for her own vote on Epi's shoulders. Her vote hinged on which way Epi voted, which to me feels manipulative.

Re: Death Note Mafia [NIGHT 1]
This sounds a little like a No U. I don't think it was fishy at all. I truly felt that Epi was trying to manipulate votes toward you (TH) or Russ but then didn't vote that way himself. Traditional Epi or not (of which I have no experience) that doesn't read civ. I probably shouldn't have laid down that ultimatum. But live and learn.Turnip Head wrote:It's definitely unlike FZ to miss a lynch. I'm not sure what to make of it though. I don't suspect her much.

@DH - my comment to Boo about the possibility of baddies choosing to vote L/Light was sincere baddie hunting. I really do think that baddies would want to vote that way. I admit that I did latch on to Boo's logic because it was good logic.

Re: Death Note Mafia [NIGHT 1]
Why does it sound like a NO U? I'm not accusing you because you accused me.
Why do you feel like Epi was trying to move votes toward me? I don't think he even mentioned me except at the start of the day when he called me boring.

Re: Death Note Mafia [NIGHT 1]
I think the FZ case is interesting. She stated she was thinking about voting for me and I hit her back hard. After that, she immediately backed off, which is not what I expected her to do. She's definitely someone I want to look at more going into Day 2.

Welcome zeeky!!
Bye rox - I hope things get better for you.
I voted to not modkill MM. He's fun to have around.
I think if epi were bad, he'd be more likely to be the yoshiwhateves group than a kira. That's about all I got on him.
I'd like to hear who fz would have voted for if she made it back to vote.

See, the thing is I don't think Epignosis is a complete asshole. And for that reason I doubt he is a harmless Youtuber. I think this because we've all been having a very serious discussion about role hinting recently, and if you disagree that Epi's actions thusfar have been designed to hint very heavily at being a harmless Youtuber, we're gonna have words.

Let's not forget that Epi (or any Yotsuba member) could be both Yotsuba and a Kira, albeit the odds are low.

Or are you saying you believe his heavy hintings about being a harmless youtubawhatchamacalit, but you don't believe they are harmless.
He obviously wants to push the idea that the majority of the Yotsuba are harmless. Now, the logical conclusion to draw from that is that he himself is a Yotsuba and is being heavy handed in trying to secure his safety in the game. As I said earlier, if we follow the logic that he is a Yotsuba, he's tipped his cohorts off so that they won't vote for him, and made it less likely that he will be lynched (because most people, if they follow his line of thought, will leave the 'harmless' Yotsuba for at best, endgame). The problem there is while pushing the Yotsuba as harmless benefits him by protecting him from Yotsuba kills and lynches, it does not protect him from Light kills, but rather the opposite.
See if you can stay with me on this, because it may be a bit of a stretch, but the thought occurred to me and I'm sort of stream-of-consciousness typing it out. The way a Death Note works is you need to know a persons real name and what they look like in order to use one to kill them. So if Epi really is a Yotsuba, being so incredibly heavy handed about it makes it much much easier for him to be night killed. Though this loses a bit of gas since Light's team does not need the Yotsuba dead to win.
So I guess what I'm saying is that no, I don't think Epi is a harmless Yotsuba because he (I don't think) would role hint so heavily if he were. His motives for doing so elude me, but if I had to guess I would peg him as the Yotsuba Kira or a member of Light's crew for the following reasons:
1) No detective in their right mind would openly push such a crap idea, knowing the suspicion it would bring them. Regardless of the NKing protection it affords from both Light and Yotsuba, it is far too sketchy a stance and would very likely result in his lynch.
2) If he is the Yotsuba Kira, it tips off his cohorts without directly pegging him as the Yotsuba Kira, which could prove fruitful
3) If he is anyone on Light's team, he conceals his real identity, protects himself from lynches by pretending to be a hapless Yotsuba, and protects himself from Yotsuba kills without any real consequence.
All this to say the bottom line is I'm convinced the Yotsuba thing is a ploy, and that no civvie would feel the need to come up with such a ploy.

Re: Death Note Mafia [NIGHT 1]
We're definitely not on the same page. Whether or not it's constructive, FZ has contributed of late. Whether you think she's bad or good, you put her in a tough spot by suspecting her for 'being absent'. Same with Russ. Their continued absence will increase the suspicion of them. Also, if they do get around to talking, they'll be under the magnifying glass for being a previous target. It's a lose-lose situation for them.Epignosis wrote:I don't share your assessment of FZ.

Now, I do agree with your current observations of FZ. I also earlier missed this post on her, so your vote is more clear to me.
Now, if I may ask. Why do you think it is not foolish to vote someone on Day 1 who does not post on Day 1, but you still wanted to wait until Russ posted to vote for him?

Re: Death Note Mafia [NIGHT 1]
Ah, my favorite kind of DharmaHelper: Wrong.
I didn't hint. I corrected assumptions that make this game an impossible 12 civilians vs. 14 Mafia. It is 12 civilians vs. 4 Kira. I am less inclined to believe that someone is a detective who fails to grasp his or her own win condition or expands it to mean eliminating literally everybody else in the game.

Russ hasn't posted at all. Period. It's Night 1 and he still has not posted. This is unusual for him and something that warrants attention. I'm not sure if that answers your question.

"While I hate to vote for Zoombarella after the nice things she said about me, I've seen her play and she's not giving half of it this game. Yeah, she has another game, but this is getting closer to deadline and she's posted just enough to stay under the radar. In the other game she's more aggressive, and came charging into the game. I don't see any of it right now."S~V~S wrote:Its interesting that FZ, an experienced player, uses that defense particularly regarding THIS thread, when wasn't that essentially her reason for suspecting Zomba? That she was uninvolved?
More or less.
And then Zomba came into the thread with perfect timing and FZ decided not to vote for her because of it so... a case of expecting someone to be on your time and play how you want them to, saying the lynch is nearly over when it still actually had about 3 hours, which is plenty of time for Zomba to have come back and participated more. The actual suspicion of not participating enough doesn't really ring true to me, especially for a player in their second game, which FZ knew.

I just have a hard time believing that MP would give a baddie a role that would be so easy to detect by not being able to post.

Re: Death Note Mafia [NIGHT 1]
Since people seem to want to know who I would have voted for, even if I don't know, I'll give you some of my thoughts.
I started out thinking Aces was bad because how he had a tunnel vision regarding Trice, but his replies to me seemed more genuine when I asked about it. He's still up there on my list, and not because he voted for a civ, but because of the way he was so sure about it and didn't even bother looking at anyone else. So I'm keeping an eye.
With Snowman, I agree with Rico that the fact he found nothing to say was really fishy, and since it was freaking day 1, it was a better reason for me to vote for him than someone who I initially suspected but got a better feel of him later. So maybe him.
I think LC is flying way under the radar, but I don't know if it's because of RL or something else.
I have no idea what to say about Boo's vote for BWT. I need to go back and read it.
I don't know what to think about Epi and DH either. At least Dh is following his suspicions. Epi just talked forever about lynching Russ, and argued endlessly with DH, but ended up voting for me. Not sure exactly why.
And TH, not idea what's going on there. I can't see baddie TH just vote without trying to seem like he's building a case, but he's not really baddie hunting either, so not sure what to make of it.
And I was so impressed with Zombarella's aggressive first game, and the way she just jumped into the deep water, which had no connection to the type of the game, that when she seemed to be mellow, it made me very concerned. Then she came in, and I wanted to wait to see how she posts, hence why I didn't vote at that time, only to later fall asleep.
10 linkis: are you satisfied now?
And the deadline for me is when I go to sleep, not when it really is deadline. Excuse me for living on the other side of the world.

I didn't hint. I corrected assumptions that make this game an impossible 12 civilians vs. 14 Mafia. It is 12 civilians vs. 4 Kira. I am less inclined to believe that someone is a detective who fails to grasp his or her own win condition or expands it to mean eliminating literally everybody else in the game.
Russ hasn't posted at all. Period. It's Night 1 and he still has not posted. This is unusual for him and something that warrants attention. I'm not sure if that answers your question. I suspect FZ. for entirely different reasons than I suspect Russ.Metalmarsh89 wrote:We're definitely not on the same page. Whether or not it's constructive, FZ has contributed of late. Whether you think she's bad or good, you put her in a tough spot by suspecting her for 'being absent'. Same with Russ. Their continued absence will increase the suspicion of them. Also, if they do get around to talking, they'll be under the magnifying glass for being a previous target. It's a lose-lose situation for them.Epignosis wrote:I don't share your assessment of FZ. I think she has since posted a lot, but the content is not what I associate with good FZ. Good FZ. has a certain tenacity and assurance. She is a focused civilian, one that has proven dangerous to Mafia. I am not seeing that here.Metalmarsh89 wrote:Looking back Epi, you suspected FZ because of her absence as well, saying she is probably bad with SD. But FZ has since contributed quite a bit (though she did miss the lynch), and you never updated your suspicion to something current. If you did, then I can't find it.
Now, I do agree with your current observations of FZ. I also earlier missed this post on her, so your vote is more clear to me.
Now, if I may ask. Why do you think it is not foolish to vote someone on Day 1 who does not post on Day 1, but you still wanted to wait until Russ posted to vote for him?
Aight.

Re: Death Note Mafia [NIGHT 1]
People are also acting like that's somehow more likely because while he hasn't posted Russ still has had some activity. He voted in the D0 poll. He didn't vote D1. It's entirely possible (and imo a far better explanation) that he read none of the D0 discussion, came into the thread, figured it's D0 and he could treat it like a normal one (they've mostly become something people don't put any thought in and just use to establish that they got their role PM and are ready to play) and voted without posting and hasn't been back to the game since.thellama73 wrote:I just have a hard time believing that MP would give a baddie a role that would be so easy to detect by not being able to post.
I'd still lynch him for it, because a non-participant is valueless, but people have a strange willingness to let that go here, apparently to the point where deciding that a role that isn't allowed to post at all somehow makes sense.

Nope. That was some A grade throwing out names, but not only is the question of "who would you have voted for if you had voted" not one I really value when a missed voter answers it after the fact, you didn't even answer the question to satisfy people who can be satisfied by an answer to the question.FZ. wrote:Since people seem to want to know who I would have voted for, even if I don't know, I'll give you some of my thoughts.

Even so, just for the pure sake of argument, the only players who were unable to post there were victims of a baddie power, not owners of that power themselves.

I also agree with Epi that it's more than odd that Rusty isn't posting in here.
I just don't know if that makes him bad or what that makes him. *Something* is going on with Rusty, I just can't figure out what it is.
linki- also what MM said. Isn't there any civ role that could have that sort of description/secret
more linki- I'm always curious as to how missed voters would answer that. Dunno that it changes my mind, I just like to hear how their brains are working. So you are going with "IDK how I would have voted but here's my current thoughts on people" then FZ? I just want to make sure I'm reading the jist of it correctly.
more linki. posting anyway.

Bioshock Mafia lasted 15 days and nights. Even if Kyle Fitzpatrick had survived that long, he would have had only a 25% chance to survive. And Sander Cohen, whom Fitzpatrick needed dead to win, would survive the first two attempts on his life, either by lynch or night kill.MovingPictures07 wrote:
• Kyle Fitzpatrick – A talented pianist, Fitzpatrick works as a disciple under Sander Cohen, but Cohen is displeased by Fitzpatrick’s piano playing. Fitzpatrick must continue to play the piano every night but, as time passes, he comes closer to giving up out of frustration, leading to his explosive death. Each night Fitzpatrick lives he loses 5% on his chances of survival, starting with a 90% base rate of surviving Night 1; 85% of surviving Night 2; 80% Night 3; 75% Night 4, etc. He cannot win with Sander Cohen alive.
This was a role that had no hope of winning. Yet there it was. So saying it doesn't make sense for MP to include a certain role doesn't mean much to me.
