You can bargain aye... I'd rather not go more than 3w for the expert though.

TBF

I used the words that best describe the feeling I have for the situation as it stands..?

What's interesting about my word choice here? What would you derive from knowing why I chose the word "distasteful" as opposed to "bad" or "not good" or "problematic"?

The choice of the word "weaker" in my earlier post was your choice:

Doubloon-Seven: You're not new to the concept of Mafia.
Why are you doing even worse than me at it?

I'm not antagonizing folk for the sake of it, but I will admit I wasn't exactly going anywhere with that, except maybe trying to point out to the TBF bandwagon that it's not just me, and I'm not exactly the worst case.  Though, really, that's johiah, not me.

Please do not start a semantic argument and say that "worse/worst" =/= "weaker".

Why have you chosen to be proactive and only push against players that you think are weaker than you?

4mask

His play thus far I guess has been fairly typical of the 4mask I've played with - all of three times I think. Optimum answers to RVS questions, being a bit smarmy if someone throws them shade 'cause he knows they don't have anything to go on yet, pushing a bit on weaker players for some easy towncred.
If you read through my posts you should know that I didn't really push on anyone.  I got pissy with TBF for being anti-town and voted him over it because if all else fails lynching an anti-town player is better than lynching some random joe if there isn't a good scumpick.  He's being less anti-town now, so unvote.  Also, is smarmy actually the word you were looking for there or were you looking for a different unflattering adjective?

What unflattering adjective would you choose to describe it? :P

I thought it was more of a compliment, tbh. You can be smarmy 'cause you can talk your way out of things.



Now I'll be lazy and not read doll's stuff again.

Interesting (and bleedin' obvious, but bugger it) that he has said that 4mask is his top scumpick but has yet to really press a case on him.

Also interesting how doll thinks TBF isn't anti-town, given his case against Johiah is "he's doing it worse than me"... /lazy manipulation to get someone else to press doll for me

9110
Extend, things are distasteful as they stand.

9111
...Do you actually believe that doll is Mafia?
Honestly at this point I want to get lynched, even though I'm not mafia, because this kind of thing just isn't fun for me. When we play mafia around the campfire it is more laid back, not constant analysis and the demand that you must speak every 2 seconds or you are mafia.
It seemed to me that hanging back would actually make me more likely to survive and win because the Mafia would see me as less of a threat. Oh well.
Can I suicide so they don't waste their votes?
....Well there's your problem, because campfire Mafia this is not.

Lurking making Mafia not notice you?  Maybe, but how are you going to notice them with no content?

Suiciding?  No.  I would suggest requesting a replacement if you're not having fun though.

Are you going to answer my questions, or just interact with players you think are weaker than you?

First Post: Part deux

Gentlefish


Is there something more you wanted from me? I'm more than willing to answer questions, seeing as back-and-forth can only help town succeed.

This sits uneasily with me. What was your back to doll's forth? Your desire for more questions makes you look proactive, but all I saw in the rest of this post was reaction.


Johiah: Somehow my vote was missed in the count.
@Hapah
May I ask why you are voting me?

We're voting you because you're inactive. Be active and we may shift our vote.

That coupled with a kinda lazy pressure vote, it leads me to read the following quite negatively:

As for whom I'd kill if I were mafia, I'd probably pick off Doll if they weren't. They're actually fighting the good fight which makes for strong town and really scary scum because they're always pushing the initiative and forcing everyone else to react. Failing that, if TBF survived the day somehow, killing him might cast doubt on everyone who voted him, so he'd be a good kill too.

I've never seen anyone answer that question with the proviso "if so-and-so wasn't my scum partner..." so that was interesting. Plus a stunning review of their play, too.

You also seem convinced (at that point) TBF is going to be lynched, but that he must be town, else no doubt would be cast on those that voted him...



More later.

roo is town, doll probably isn't. Not sure about others yet, more reading needs done.

Hell, I thought I had more time than this :'(

9113
I guess I'll go in reverse order then.

TBF

TheBiggerFish
Which players would you estimate as having a better than 90% chance of being town, as of right now?
Myself, but I'm practically obligated to say that whether or not it's true.
Maybe Gentlefish.
Mathematically, none of us at all.  That's only a 75% chance not including myself.
Maybe Wuba.

Tremendous non-answer. Why are you relying on maths instead of post-analysis? What are your thoughts regarding the content generated so far?

Also, one would expect you to be disinclined to call webadict town after he's been on your rear all day. Please explain the reasoning behind this.

If I had to pick one, Johiah.

Activelurking, actual lurking, refusing to play, bandwagoning, refusing to share reads...

All these are things you have indulged in, even moreso than Johiah. Considering things from my perspective, give me a few reasons why I should not vote for you.



You've been throwing an amount of shade at roo for a great deal of the day. Could you tell me how roo's play in their previous games correlates with their alignment in this one?

Why are you still throwing shade in roo's direction while voting for someone else?

4maskwolf
As you can see, I am rolefishing.
What's your role this game?
4maskwolf... may be scum.

I've got him written down as "probably scum" in my private notes. He's my top scumpick.

Harumph.

4maskwolf is scum, right?

Sure, I guess.

His play thus far I guess has been fairly typical of the 4mask I've played with - all of three times I think. Optimum answers to RVS questions, being a bit smarmy if someone throws them shade 'cause he knows they don't have anything to go on yet, pushing a bit on weaker players for some easy towncred.

Someone could definitely spin that to make him look scummy.



Not a great post to start, much sadness is had.

Hopefully I will be able to post again in a few hours, I had forgotten how much of doll's stuff I had glossed over while I was just spectating...

9114
Readin' through the thread again, post up in a bit.

  Let it be known that as far as nature is concerned, breastfeeding is the only way for infants to get nutrition before that can nom things with their mouths.
Apart from blood. Warm, fresh, delicious blood.
Blood is a little too salty, surely? They'd boke it all up.

You think Trump was born that way, or did he suffer major brain trauma somewhere along the path of his life? Perhaps it was oxygen deprivation during extreme golden showers.
I'm a little tired of this "Trump brain-damage" thing. He talks exactly like my granddad; he uses simple words, he repeats himself, and he simplifies away a lot of history. Trump's an old man, and he talks like one.

PS: My grandpa isn't senile. Also, he's a New Yakker, so sometimes it's hard for me to tell them apart.

Would you elect your grandad to the highest office in the land?

I find the one of the cake dropping into Kane's mouth to be far funnier than the cake bursting from his chest.


Oh, and I recently discovered that this forum does have a calendar page which list every user's birthday(assuming they put it on their profile).

That is so cool ive never seen that before
We should pm birthday images to everyone

By "we" I assume you mean "everybody who isn't me"? :P
