But why would Mafia need regular background powers then? They could make one up, couldn't they? My background is that I can't target or be targeted by players from Neutralia, but I could easily say that my powers can't be blocked or misdirected on nights with a multiple of 3.

Linguists don't define words. We let the masses use them and then figure it out.

I was drunk last night and working now so I haven’t put the slightest effort into decoding it. Have at it.

Soften 'em up. It corroborates I think Kites (?) who said they boosted sig's kill chance. I obviously didn't do that, so you were misdirected or something.

yeah but why is kites giving his scum reads an extra chance to kill?

This probably isn't exactly what you're asking but... Kites' comment about a long long lost brother prompted me to google "archer, long lost brother" and it brought me to the wiki page for Rebecca, an archer from Blazing Blade. She leaves home to search for her long lost brother, the only pirate is Dart, a dude who suffered amnesia and joined up with some pirates because thats how life is sometimes. Dart is highly hinted at being Rebecca's lost brother.

So far every role has been from "sacred stones" or "the blazing blade", and kite's made a cryptic post about a lost brother much earlier in the game... Idk. It makes sense.

Whether or not this confirms Kite's as civ I guess depends on how much fire emblem knowledge he has, because this would take an impressive amount of forethought to setup if fake, and the fact that sig was apparently redirected from targeting Wilgy despite none of the known redirectors being responsible for it seems to confirm Kite's thing.

yeah I meant colin, Kylemii misunderstood. If my action helped my brother in any way, like boosting sig’s kill when he is targeting a player (wilgy) who is harming my brother (colin) somehow, the kill would misdirected to colin. that’s what i think it means, it’s kind of hard to understand

Kylemii what made you think wilgy would be my brother? cos I have no idea

No. You seem to be more enthralled by that word than I am. I know what I meant by throwing it out there. What does it mean to you?

And why do you care about a made up word in a mafia game?

colonialbob wrote: ↑Mon Feb 19, 2018 6:18 pm Re: iron_dwarf

His Epi bashing didn't sit right with me, I never really understood why his disagreement with the exercise translated to Epi being scum. He then backed off that d2, before going back n2 after the EoD craziness.

I don't like the "nutella is opportunistic" criticism, it's very vague and just seems to be echoing other suspicions. If true, show your work.

His previous post about Sig not being mafia because of his power makes no sense and he hasn't addressed my questioning of it.

His pressure on RDW clearly indicates he missed some of the discussion between RDW and JJJ, which could be mafia looking for an easy excuse to park their vote.

He was one of the people who voted me early and never provided a case on me despite my repeated asking for one.

All that said, after the ISO a lot of the posting I didn't agree with war how he defended himself against the draft argument (which was a totally valid argument). However, Dr. White being town means that defense isn't necessarily scummy, poor as it is.

Overall I still lean negative on him but it's less strong than before the Dr. White flip.

i'm not okay with the Sig lynch based on game mechanics. There is "easy" all over it. You guys can do better.

I was just talking shit. There was nothing game-related about any of those posts. I realize gender was a game-related discussion (I don't know the theme well at all), but my commentary was just to be funny.
