Bay 12 Games Forum

-Nope, haven't played on this board before. As mentioned, if you want me to link to the boards where I have played, go ahead.

Welcome then, to the insanity that is Bay12 / Dwarf Fortress forum mafia!

I don't mind not knowing your playstyle so long as you stay active.  Lurkers are rather hard to read (and tend to get lynched).

Ah, actually, now that I think about it; hadn't we started night phase? Isn't there usually a kill during afore-mentioned phase? Kirb implied that someone didn't send their action in, to be honest, so I suppose that's a possible explanation, but regardless- I thought it would've started with a hit...

This is worrysome, because IIRC ExKirby said that he would be starting with the mafia allowed a night kill.  Most likely it was blocked or protected against in some manner or another, but still...  It is interesting.

Hey JanusTwoface, how did you manage to forget about the Random Voting Phase? Come on now, what were you thinking?

FoS Janus. RVS is almost mandatory around here, Janus. How silly of you to forget.

I don't have a problem with Random Voting itself, my main problem is with people that just randomly vote and wonder off without actually provoking any discussion (like Leafsnail).

Everyone (with the possible exception of Baal for being newer to this particular board) has been random voted at least once, so being random voted really shouldn't provoke a reaction.  It's the questions and conversations (that hopefully stay relatively game-focused as well) that can potentially draw scum out.

After a bit, if people aren't posting the threat of potentially getting lynched for lurking is a good reason to vote, but random voting?  Kind of silly...

Bah for random votes without a reason / question / anything at all.  FoS Leafsnail

PrinnyBaal, I haven't seen you around before, so I have a couple of questions for you:
- Have you been in Mafias on this board so far (if so, which)?
- How sure (as a percent) of scummitude would you have to be to hammer someone?

Also, adding in JanusTwoFace since he was sad he missed out on the last one.

Yay!

I believe that I unvoted forsaken around the point I started defending him.  In any case, unvote again just to be sure.

Semi-random Mod Question:  Do you prefer unvotes be in red as well?  I think I put the last one in blue, so you may have missed it.

The general consensus seems to be for a No Lynch today?  I'm game if that's the case.

Vote to end the day early (pending any further discussion).

For those wondering (forsaken), here's why a No Lynch makes sense in a case such as this:
- If we lynch correctly, the mafia kills tonight and we're in the same situation (numberwise) tomorrow.
- If we lynch incorrectly, the mafia kills tonight and we have even numbers tomorrow (we lose).
- If we No Lynch, the mafia kills tonight and we still outnumber them tomorrow with hopefully more information.

Basically, unless we are completely sure who is scum, it makes sense to No Lynch at this point.

(For anyone that already knew all of this, please ignore me for the time being; I was working through why it makes sense myself, so I figured I'd post it)

Of course, having a Exterminator / Vig in play makes things far more interesting...

It was all sarcasm, Janus. Do not worry.

Ooooh sarcasm on the internet... 

So... Kashyyk, why are you ignoring Paranormal?  You've been online (and even posted) since the day began but you haven't said a thing yet.

So far as the vig... I'm not sure yet.  I'm going to work under the hope for now that the vig is town because we're going to have some problems if this is not the case.

- With Leafsnail as the kill, I think that a town vig would be hoping that at least one of webadict's guesses would pan out.
- A scum vig on the other hand might have either been trying to cast suspicion on those Leafadict accused (Org and Mr.Person) or WIFOM into thinking we did.

Like I said though: for now I'm thinking / hoping town vig.

You all deserve to lose.

Says the dead person who managed to get 2 / 3 townies killed (depending on if the Vig / whatever is town or dopp).

All the people Webadict said were scum are town.

I almost missed this. This seems like an interesting statement as you're one of the people Web called out as scum here.

However, Mr.Person has seceded you in scumminess. He knows that you are indeed scummy and yet refuses to vote for you.

Methinks Mr.Person's original post was a bit of an exaggeration.  Granted, Toony, web, and Leafsnail are dead, but webadict managed to accuse most of the players in the game as being scum at one point or another.

That is a neat way of making yourself look more towny though, Mr.Person...
