uhhh role/character isn’t related to alignment cos they were drafted. so that doesn’t make him look any less or more mafia

They’re grasping at straws trying to find something suitable to lynch me for after I already explained what my backstory was. I refuse to believe I’m the only one with the backstory since Mac and whoever else have the same condition. Unless that’s the one specific case


I don’t think dunya meant it as a serious discussion topic, yet some people (DDL) appear to think otherwise

I don't think Dunya was being non-serious when she made that post. Though it's too late to ask what exactly she meant with it.

you're misunderstanding. what you said is true, but if mafia replace their background powers with what their mafia background powers are. L'Arachel having a Lynch stop makes sense thematically based on her character. Epi having L'Arachel as his cover backstory and also happening to be a mafia role that has a lynch stop and being willing to spend it in the way he did, as well as having a team that wouldn't be pissed off about him using it in that way, makes much less sense.

This post looks very civ.

I agree Nutella has given me an oportunistic vibe a lot of times, even though I like her activity.

Ive seen Nutella as scum twice and she didnt play vey actively in either of them. Maybe this is what bad Nutella looks like when trying hard.

Quin wrote: ↑Fri Feb 16, 2018 9:32 pmI don't think his TMI style posts are alignment indicative. The decision to roleplay that sort of thing isn't more likely to come from scum than town.

Roleplay isn't the issue. The issue is allowing roleplay to dictate gameplay. The issue is choosing to lynch you over nutella without actually caring or working to decide which one of you is actually more likely to be mafia.

He said that nutella is "not up for lynch". I'm hoping that there's more to that than him wanting to preserve the pegasus trio.

most likely either
a) mafia saved cbob’s ass cos he is scum
b) someone, civ maybe, wanted drwhite dead instead

anyways someone might have a power like lynch redirector? it would probably require voting for the target so colin, dunya/speedchuck or rdw maybe for voting drwhite

this is just speculation btw

Kylemii wrote: ↑Fri Feb 16, 2018 11:08 pm @JaggedJimmyJay @Quin tell me about lapluie

I've never seen her fall off the face of the earth in a game before. I still suspect her for it after she was one of the top posters in MK though. She's also used the rate of posts as a crutch, I think. I don't know what the point of flat out denying the accusation that she was posting on the Syndicate while having no posts here.

What convinced you that Dr. White should be the lynch?

Your bloody case mostly. His reaction reads bad to me. Gold civ medal to you.

That being said I have felt like every lynch candidate so far has been a good one. But after Luffy had a mass sook at me and now White at you and you at Eli I am just not enjoying this at all.

Welcome to scumhunting. It sucks and is emotionally unsatisfying.

Though that rare time when you catch someone makes it worth it.

I'm wary of Epi. I don't like this argument for scum 3J.

Somebody tell me he isn't going for easy, early lynches.

I would agree at least that Iron_Dwarf and lapluie are "easy". I don't care. Easy and civilian aren't synonymous. Sometimes mafia members are easy to lynch.

Your reasons for all of them are lazy though. Quin not engaging anyone "substantively?" lapluie not "hitting the ground running here like she did in MK?"

Lazy work. I do not believe you are a civilian, sir.

1. Both of these arguments are worth making. In my case it's incorrect, but if I'm not engaging anyone substantively, that's a decent contrast to how I usually try to be as a player. lapluie is the same. She had 553 posts in MK despite it being her first game. She was in the top half of posters in Buffy. She's barely pushing 30 here. If you're not going to immediately call it suspicious, you absolutely have to look at it as substantial.

2. 3J said this. Lazy cases do not guarantee a civilian lynch.

[mention]Epignosis[/mention], what makes the cases 3J has put forward lazy, and why does that make him bad? Do you believe that he is avoiding progressive (as opposed to lazy) reads?

You may have described there the nature of my turn on White. I had to restrain myself from hurling nasty, unwarranted insults just minutes ago at people who do not deserve them as a direct result of being subjected to accusations that I think are stupid. I am a civilian, and that would never happen to me if I am being subject to accusations correctly. Maybe White is the type to do that either way. I don't know how he plays. Maybe Dragon D. Luffy can provide insight on that front. In my experience though, when it gets personal, it's nearly always civilian.

I'm sorry to have contributed to your loss of fun. Truly. I have not been a gracious player in this game and I need to find a way to calm my shit down. I don't know why I'm so on edge, but I am.

I have never seen him play like that and I'm at a loss of words at it. He is usually the calm analytic type.

Though granted I havent played that many games with him. His most active period coincides with my least active one.

I would guess he had expectations for a certain kind of experience and didn't get what he wanted for, maybe with the high post count or the fact he got accused early.

I honestly hope we didn't burn any bridges here and that if he plays mafia here again it will be more enjoyable for him and for everyone, [mention]Dr. White[/mention] . Thank you for signing up and giving our little site a try.

Can't really see anything substantial there. And this is not really a defense.

RDW's vote on me was tacked to a strong suggestion that he had role-based information against me. Soon after he admitted he only bodyguarded me, meaning the vote wasn't driven by real stuff [beyond his desire to test me, presumably]. Given that he was open about this and that you didn't seem to notice that, what is your perspective now about his vote for me?

He's still all over the place and never really addressing points raised against him. Case in point:

lapluie had civilian BTSC in Mortal Kombat. It is much easier to stay invested in a game when you have BTSC.

In addition, Mortal Kombat had 106 pages of posts in NINE phases including endgame discussion.

This is at 81 pages on Day 2.

Lapluie is behind, and I think this is another case of JJJ gunning for an easy lynch.

ok no she's been mentioned by several people including myself and Quin

but actually your argument is reasonable, she could just be overwhelmed by this insane game

Well whoever misdirected me, thanks...now we have no idea who I targeted and wasted a positive ID.

How do you know you were misdirected?

I especifically asked Jack what yould happen if I misdirected you and he told me you would never notice. You'd just get wrong results.

I'm curious: knowing I'm an ID cop, why did you misdirect me? You've repeatedly claimed you think I'm Civ.

Yes! I had to randomly misdirect someone last night, and I specifically looked through the roles to see which would do the least harm. I certainly avoided trackers, protectors... I seem to recall that most roles left a bad taste in my mouth to redirect randomly. Then I got to Mage: "Fire - Each night, you may target another player and reverse their action. A nightkill will become a doctor, a guide will become a block, a track will become a reverse track, etc." And I figured the random, chaotic nature of that power meant that randomizing it wouldn't be as disruptive as many others.

but you didn't target the mage, you targeted the sage. why target me and not kenway?

I don't know whether I read the Sage targeted you and misremembered it as the Mage, since it's the same power... or if your proximity to Kenway and at-a-glance name similarity is the reason for this error.
