I like
VOTE: Lurker
for thinking that he could just drop his vote and not help move the game from RVS.
Also I'm suspicious of mehdi for immediately claiming reaction fishing when pressured, and I'm pretty sure Jal is town here.ShowSeven Deadly Sins. Six thrilling chapters. One epic adventure.

I thought it was implied in my post that I don't like Lord Mhork's claim that you were reaction fishing, which you deny and I feel runs counter to the "take everything seriously" mode that you claim to take in every game.
Pal, did you even read my last post? I amended my reaction fishing statement after it was clear I had made a mistake.
In post 168, Lurker wrote:Ok, My first in a (hopefully) series of reads. First off I will read Lord Mhork.
His first vote, Post #119, He votes me for the same reason as Jal did, or as they call it, sheeping. He goes on to say that Jal is town.
One of these would be a bit of a slip, but permissible. Two however, seems like buddying.
In post 126 He says that Medhi was reaction fishing. He also said that early wagons were bad.
Medhi did indeed support reaction fishing as said in post #24. "It's the ideal time to reaction fish". However, she did not do so.
In post #130 he stills disagrees with the wagon point when It has been pointed out there is some sheeping on the wagon.
He also FOS's Robert, with no explanation other that "Get an avatar".
I have a scum read on this guy. I also think I may have convinced myself for pushing for his lynch.
Vote: Lord Mhork
First, why is sheeping bad? Why is it inherently scummy and voteworthy? What if I flat out admit that I liked the point Jal made so much that it seemed like the best vote?
Second, where did I say that early wagons were bad? Oh you must mean thatsarcasticremark that I said wassarcasmand was obviouslysarcasmbecause I was helping to build an early wagon.
Third, what are you even talking about with the sheep and me disagreeing with the wagon point? How do those two correlate in the slightest?
Fourth, you are an idiot. If you actually, you know, read my posts, it would miraculously become clear that the FoS was not due to the lack of avatar, but rather the reaction fishing! Egasp! Brilliant!
Fifth, your vote on me is bad and you should feel bad with your poorly done IIoA.
In post 170, Jal wrote:In post 164, Lord Mhork wrote:You see I was helping build an early wagon and Mogadishu was implying that there was some bad thing attached to early day wagons...
Helping? I wouldn't call what you did as helping. It looked like you thought you were voting scum. Xis' vote looked more like helping.
Difference is that I was voting someone because I agreed that behaved scummily. Xis was just along for the ride, apparently.

I would get an avatar, but i'm not sure what to have really. I think I'll go for my aviator that I've had for over a year on Ika Mafia. and why are you FOSing me?
also, loving the activity for day 1. I had to catch up on several pages after me sleeping, Church, and after me watching the Bronco game. Hopefully we can keep it up. I'm going to need to reread stuff, especially the larger posts, before my computer crude's out on me again. I think I may be able to come up with a suspicion this soon in day 1 though.
I'm FoSing you because of your reaction fishing. Like I've said in my posts. And the avatar is a really nice thing because it makes it easier for people to attribute quotes to the correct people instead of getting confused and pointing fingers at the wrong people. It can be anything really. Just google some nice picture and slap it in there.
In post 181, Robert2424 wrote:Mainly just a feeling I've gotten from her. I have no way of really explaining it, its more just a feeling then anything. It can change, idk, don't have any control over it.
As For mhork, I'm unsure how to feel about him, he seems to have came out of nowhere all the sudden, being active, and Jumping onto the Lurker bandwagon. I haven't seen much, but mainly he's been confusing to me. He dose seem a bit scummy, but not sure.
As For Lurker, he's now committing a lot more to the game then before, I feel like now there is a bandwagon on him that he's actually going to commit. Meaning the players voting on him, putting enough pressure for him to talk and make more then one sentence posts really. I'm not going to discredit putting pressure on people via votes(if putting presure on him to talk more and to stop being scummy is there intent that is, idk, I can't read there minds). I'm placing one on Jake to do just that, get him to talk more. Not to bully, but I do think he is a good player and can make good reads if he'd just post. But I do think that if Lurker is town, one voting for him is scum.
How am I scummy. And the out of nowhere thing has to do with the fact that I didn't know the day had begun before then. Is my activity bad?
In post 182, Mehdi2277 wrote:A. Jal, Mhork, and Mog all seem to think he's scum with their votes (Xis not so much).
B. Pressure votes work fine when you don't call them pressure votes. If he knows it's just pressure it's a lot easier to ignore. Voting a scum read whether it's mhork or jal beats pressuring jake when it's unlikely to make him post much more when he knows the vote isn't going to get him lynched.
Dat terribad pressuring.
I really don't like the fact that you are already narrowing down the possible scum to me and Jal there. It's kinda tacky. Also, of course I seem to think he's scum with my vote! Why in the hell would I tell someone I'm voting that I actually think they're town?! How does that even?!
In post 186, Mehdi2277 wrote:It's more of what do you think of the people on those wagons. Lurker and Lord are on each other so that cancels. Then it's me and SC pushing mhork vs Jal, Xis the sheep, and AI the rvs vote.
How do we cancel? And I really don't like this polarizing tactic you're attempting here.

Why are you so 100% convinced that I am scum? Why are you already looking for connections that can be stemmed from me being scum? All it does is create ugly, anti town confirmation bias.
In post 224, Mehdi2277 wrote:Well you think lurker is scum. I think mhork is. As for not bussing you generally don't assume every time someone you suspect is voting someone it's mafia. You usually think it's voting a mislynch.
What is this even?
As awesome as it would be to have Mehdi be so clearly scum, I think he's prolly town based on the sheer eagerness of his posts and the fact that, usually, scum would be so clear in their use of logical fallacies to mislynch town. Also, I like Mogadishu, and Lurker can get some extra scum points for obvious OMGUS.ShowSeven Deadly Sins. Six thrilling chapters. One epic adventure.

No. Read my fucking post. You may be bad, but bad play is not, nor has it ever been, a scum tell. In fact, some of the worst players are frequently town because they focus less on public image and more on trying to find scum. Your misguided and terrible attempts to make me out to be mafia look like genuine efforts to scum hunt, so I have a town read on you regardless of my analysis of your skill level.
And the magno-whatever town read is a vibey feel from his posts that I don't have the time or energy to back up with pinpoint quotes and evidence right now.

In post 242, Mehdi2277 wrote:UNVOTE: Mhork VOTE: Xis I'm not going in detail unless someone wants me to but I like his last two posts as he's been pushed more. My opinion Xis hasn't changed so it's mainly unvote someone he wanted to pressure to vote lurker when it didn't seem like he found him scummy (and if it was to pressure why unvote the guy you're trying to pressure to vote someone else for pressure reasons).
Mog probably still thinks lurker is a better lynch and having multiple scum reads that deserve votes isn't a scum tell.
I don't believe that. If he were to think lurker is the better lynch, he'd have asked for more pressure on lurker. Asking for votes on me without doing it himself is noncommittal and very sketchy. I don't like it.
@lurker:
I politely disagree. Scum would have to have half a brain to try and quicklynch. Hammers and mislynches happen regardless of sheeping or not, and my vote is my reasoning that I happen to agree with. It's not like I stole the rationale, I just agree with it.
@StrangerCoug:
Thanks for the vote, I guess, but that jump makes me nervous... Also that was my rationale for Moga... Are you sheeping for the sake of sheeping, or do you have any original thoughts?

As for my vote on Lurker, I'm going to keep it here for now.
Does anyone object to asking what this electric company card does? Claiming VT doesn't save you from a lynch, but saying you have a power can save you, this could just be a bluff.
I believe he said it made him a 1-shot watcher, right?

Yes. Yes only mini's. They are standard enough here that this sort of crude analysis will work, and the sample size was way to small to be statistically significant (been too long for me to remember how to work out how many samples would be needed but suspect it would be in the hundreds.) But the overall trend was holding very well.
(If you're interested in a 3/10 game which is kind of standard for mini's, any random group of four players has about a 71% chance of containing at least one scum. That's why I trust my little four wagon stat despite the small sample size)
The real use will come later hopefully.
I tend to find that people who use statistics in mafia games are 79% more like to be full of bullshit. Mafia is not an exact science, and use of statistics and percentages are just ways for opportunistic scum to play off mislynches.

Also, that's a ridiculous idea. Woohoo. We get to argue over who's the towniest player, lurker gets shot, then the following night the obvious guy who we agree will never get lynched gets shot. We do the hard work of the mafia trying the make the NK decision for them. And that's just assuming that lurker is town. Remember this?

Quoted from "http://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=Watcher"
"Mafia Watchers have been known to exist and have much less stigma attached to them. They can be used to find protective roles (by targetting likely Doctor targets), or to give foreknowledge of possible investigations (by watching a Mafia partner). In a setup with multiple killers, a Mafia Watcher may be able to identify opposing killers. They are fairly solid power roles in scum hands."

@Lord Mhork: Was your #227 intended mainly as a defence against Lurker's #168, or was it primarily intended to be a demonstration of Lurker's scumminess? If it's some admixture of the two, what are the rough proportions?
Additionally, how do you feel about StrangerCoug's hop from you to Lurker in #257?
"Admixture"
Dat word...
Yeah it was a little of Column A and a little of Column B. It began with me just being very irritated with lurker's poorly done case, but that last line where I accuse him of IIoA is enough for it to be a case as well. I'd say... 75-80/20-25? Somewhere in that ball park? I wasn't really trying to win votes with that post, if that's what you're asking.
I'd be willing to give StrangerCoug the benefit of the doubt for misreading, though I don't like how I hadjustsaid I had made a mistake. I don't really see the scum motivation here though to misunderstand a really, really obvious correction. I'd say it's more of a null tell/leaning slow player tell.
And I don't really know what to make of him hopping on lurker like that. If he thought my deconstruction of the terribad post revealed enough scum intent from lurker, more power to him. I'm more worried about his 263. That's where my bad feels are coming, not so much from 257. That hop can be neutral too, I guess.

It looks like a lot of useless information. We should just drop the speculation altogether because roles cannot confirm town or scum in this setup.
In post 463, Lurker wrote:In post 456, Jal wrote:@Lurker, why didn't you claim your card with the watcher role right away? Why only the railroad?
Well, I didn't think that the card would involve my role at the time (Just my power), plus I didn't see a need to since no one else had claimed a power role. (Also, Who Would I watch? Early in the DP, nobody needs watched more then any other person at the time.)
Do you actually know what a role claim is? It's when you claim yourentirerole to the town. It's not for you to pick and choose 'well I'll claim this but not this yet because no one else has.' That's not the way this works. Also, that gives me weird rolefishy vibes, like you were hoping to get someone else to claim first.
In post 476, Lurker wrote:In post 464, Jal wrote:Why not just claim the two cards right away but not the power then?
Because It's A utility card.
There are only 2 Utility cards in monopoly: Water works and Electric company.
(Nearly) Everyone would know that those cards are very unique, and so would know that it was a power role.
So you were attempting to hide information from the town?
Inb4 'OMG MISREP.' I don't see why people don't want to pressure lurker here. He's admitted to trying to hide information and lied about what cards he had until someone actually forced him to fess up to the rest of his claim. Where is the pro town motivation here?

@Lord Mhork: Was your #227 intended mainly as a defence against Lurker's #168, or was it primarily intended to be a demonstration of Lurker's scumminess? If it's some admixture of the two, what are the rough proportions?
Additionally, how do you feel about StrangerCoug's hop from you to Lurker in #257?
Yeah it was a little of Column A and a little of Column B. It began with me just being very irritated with lurker's poorly done case, but that last line where I accuse him of IIoA is enough for it to be a case as well. I'd say... 75-80/20-25? Somewhere in that ball park? I wasn't really trying to win votes with that post, if that's what you're asking.
I'd be willing to give StrangerCoug the benefit of the doubt for misreading, though I don't like how I hadjustsaid I had made a mistake. I don't really see the scum motivation here though to misunderstand a really, really obvious correction. I'd say it's more of a null tell/leaning slow player tell.
Well, I can appreciate that it wasn't purely defensive in nature. However, since it was mostly intended to be about Lurker's case and not your own, I don't consider #227 any kind of basis to sheep a vote after. It's especially peculiar since he moved his vote off you to sheep you.
I don't consider "too obvious" a suitable excuse for StrangerCoug's "sold" vote. Scum can and will slip in and get away with all sorts of things in a fast-moving game. I've caught scum D1 in a game fabricating things wholesale.

Given no one has really argued against Medhi's explanation of how most people should have two cards, and two three, Medhi is probably correct. It obviously wasn't completely obvious to everyone how the cards were distributed. If Lurker is scum who has a power card he didn't want to reveal, he could have decided not to claim that card at allif he is telling the truth.

I may have missed something, but this is what the Baby argument looked like to me, and it wasn't enough to vote that way.
This was the argument until it started becoming this exaggerated lying mess.
Baby Spice is doing one of two things:
a)Scum Baby Spice has scum tunneled into oblivion and is finding it difficult to actually straight out call me or my actions out as scummy as they know I am town. Due to this, Baby Spice has resorted to exaggeration or complete fabrication of my actions, her actions, as well as motivations.
b)Town Baby Spice isn't good at making arguments and so tries to *puff up* their posts in an attempt to bolster their argument, and they're stubborn.
I am going for A as of her last post. Also, she has failed to really address my arguments.
Issue I have with that lurker logic is that you're trying to rationalize as to why he hid information when the fact remains that he did in fact try to hide information. I don't care that he backed up and fessed up the rest of his role; why didn't he do so in the first place?

I'm also not getting a town Mhork read. I don't think my case on Lurker was all that great - I was mainly pressuring him. A lot of people didn't even seem to understand my vote or my "case" so I don't see how it could be one great of a case for him to be convinced to vote for Lurker. His last post to Xis he didn't really respond to all that much either.

I understand him currently although I still think the reasoning is weak for why he pushed lurker and stayed with the wagon. Anyways the primary scummy thing is the way he's voted so the post before that kind of says why:
"It's mainly being opportunistic and not as much as thought with some votes then I'd think he'd have as town"

I realize jal replied to this already but adding to 518 considering the second point of it plus most of it is mainly on lack of backing for a statistic and the reason for the vote itself on jal. When you see someone make a vote you'd call bs do you normally need to re-read the wagon to see it or just notice it as it occurs?
@Spice what did you think of jal's vote when she made it and before you saw the wagon and analyzed the wagon as a whole?
Jal how did SC's vote on spice affect your read on him?
@Mhork, and what's the scum motivation in hiding info that'll be pried out fairly quickly?
Denying town information? Maybe he didn't know it'd be pried out so quickly. Or maybe he didn't think it through. He was asked a fairly abrupt question and if he had lied there it would have been really, really high risk later on when came claiming time. Imagine if he has claimed VT and then maintained his 1 card claim when all of us had two or three cards. That would have been very bad news indeed for him.

This is weird. He was getting a little heat, but not a lot, so I don't know if this is legitimate detachment or if he was afraid of pressure/upset with his role/etc. Prolly it's a null tell, but it's worth keeping an eye on.

Town and scum do stupid things. You find someone's alignment by figuring out the motivation for why they do the things they did, and if it fits the scenario. If scum Lurker wanted to hide information and is being honest about not knowing how the cards were probably dealt equally, why then as scum, would he even out his card at all a few minutes later anyway?

In post 227, Lord Mhork wrote:First, why is sheeping bad? Why is it inherently scummy and voteworthy? What if I flat out admit that I liked the point Jal made so much that it seemed like the best vote?
You liked the point I made so much it helped influence your vote.
Because he was directly asked and a lie there would haunt him all game? Wasn't this when people were doing heavy speculation that each person had two or three cards? And didn't he claim only when someone flat out asked if he had a second card like everyone else?
I'm easy to win over. >.<
You had qualms against him that matched qualms I had. You may not have won scummy for the case you made, but it was horrible. I liked it, so I agreed. What's wrong there?

It looks weak and flip floppy. StrangerCoug is conceding that he is playing weakly and I feel like that is him trying to excuse bad play for 'not getting his head in the game.' I don't like outs like that.

Dude... I'm hurt that you would insinuate that I, as scum, would be moronic enough to link myself to my scum buddy from the first post. Normally I'm heavily against meta, but if you look at any of my scum games, you'll see that's not my style. In addition, that's a weak tell at best. How many times have you actually seen scum link themselves together that badly?
I don't like what über is doing here. Why rally a counter wagon to push today when someone already has claimed scum? It's possible he's a buddy trying to clear a mislynch before his buddy dies.

Actually, I'm not hurt. Because youdon'tthink I'm scum. You know I'm town.
Which is clear.
Swell. Apparently you're an innocent child? Or I got investigative results? Did I miss them? Currently I believe you're prolly town as, in my experience, those who look too good to be scum often are too good to be scum. You're prolly an awesome, distracting, VI-esque player. However I'm interested as to how this, 'Mhork is prolly scum with Jal' jumped to 'Mhork is obv scum.'
In case Lurker's just being a fucking moron, which I wouldn't put past him, and is town, then Jal, who I 200% sure know is scum, should die today because I'm more sure about her than about Lurker. And news flash, my scum lynch percentage is fuckingoff the charts. Ask Jal. She's been on the receiving end of it, more than once.
And, of course, because I'm going to die tonight, and I won't be able to push a Jal lynch tomorrow.
When Jal flips scum, that clears me, Robert, Mehdi, and Lurker. That's WAY FUCKING BETTER than Lurker flipping town OR scum, either way he doesn't clear anybody or condemn anybody.
Stick that in your pipe and smoke it.
tl;dr: Lurker's not being lynched today, Jal's being lynched today. I'm still only 5 pages through the game. There's plenty of fucking time to prove how much of a scum bag Jal is, and it's going to happen just like it happened every other time. Riiiight at the last minute.
So not only am I a dumb scum who likes to link myself to buddies, but Jal is dumb enough scum to shoot her biggest attacker? Really? Do you give any credit to scum players or do you assume they all will give themselves away on a scum tell. This is a legitimate question. How do you scum hunt?
Why would lurker town claim scum?
How does Jal clear? Just for fights? I don't get it.

You both are sketch, but I was reading town on you. I do not see, though, why the use of a chance card wouldn't count as a visit. Nor do I see why you would even try to lie about taking an action when you didn't take one. That makes no real sense to me and I see no scum motivation. I wanna hear what the mod's ruling is before I consider voting you.
I'm a little confused, though, why he has the Electric Company. The mechanic of randomly redistributing properties after death doesn't really make sense to me, though, because that seems to go against the spirit of the 'screw your neighbor' flavor Monopoly. His push on you looks town motivated too though, 'cept for the whole having that card part.
A thought, maybe the cards get distributed among the faction responsible for a death? Would that make any sense? Random just seems too swingy and illogical. >.<ShowSeven Deadly Sins. Six thrilling chapters. One epic adventure.

I'd say it's not 'scummy fucking shit.' Often there's no point in trying to figure out what kills mean 'cause it's a mess of WIFOM. Also I wasn't even putting suspicion on you. It was a legitimate question. Your paranoid defense against it is noted, though.

Hi, monkey. Hope you get to us soon.
TBG, do you really think that the mod would let a Vig possibly be scum. I'd wager that killing would be a passive ability for a townie or possibly serial killer. Scum Vig just seems way too powerful.ShowSeven Deadly Sins. Six thrilling chapters. One epic adventure.

And I don't see the town thinking in looking for who killed whom! It's just a nasty mess of a headache and detracts from the issues at hand. And noted was a polite way for me too A) commit this to memory, and B) possibly trigger a response from you.
I don't like monkey's catch up post thing. It looks too much like he had to throw together a bunch of reads and find some support. First off, he gives reads on the person he's replacing. Dunno why he does that, especially since he points out a scummy post. Granted it's only one post, but I still don't understand why.
The rationale for the reads is also kinda sketch. First off, none of the generic platitudes that are 'good post,' 'bad vote,' 'obvscum,' etc. are explained in any real detail. Why is 157 a good defense post? What does the defensive 501 mean about Baby Spice? What the hell is a logic post and how is Jal's 705 a good example of it?

I agree with Jake that pseudo voting is ridiculous. As long as the other killer is anonymous, he has no reason to obey. The only way a second lynch thing would work would be if we knew who it was, otherwise we're politely yelling at the wall hoping it will listen. There's no accountability.
And this all assumes that we have a Vig and not a serial killer, which I honestly think could be a real possibility.

p.edit - this mock lynch is the stupidest thing I ever heard
3rd time I've heard people call it stupid. Other two times it worked and broke the game in one (with the chance of winning being about 90 percent after 1 night when actions were calculated) with another factor and in the second town got nominated for best town afterwards. It works since it's done by a town vig and not another mafia (mainly since mafia vig is very bad for balance and beyond that if it is a mafia vig and they don't shoot the person the town chooses that confirms mafia has a vig). SK with the way cards were sent out randomly doesn't work. His power is way too swingy and for a one man player would mess things up a ton. The only non town vig kill theory that works decently is two scum teams except why would spice be killed by scum.
Cheery I want your opinion on the mock lynch. You saw what it did in homestuck (yes I realize it was just directed without a complete mock lynch but without the vig being claimed making it clear works better with a similar effect).
Or jake he fake claimed watcher since that's more of a town pr then tracker generally and forgot that in the second claim. Issue fixed.
It's ridiculous because you're making way too many assumptions right now. You're assuming there is a vig, you're assuming this vig is town, and you're assuming this vig is going to listen to what the town says. There could be a serial killer. You say this is impossible, though, because the cards were sent out randomly. Well we don't know if this kill is passive or in the cards. I've given my opinion. I don't think it's a card power because then it would be too easy to have a broken setup. Scum vig anyone? There's not too much balance that can counteract a double scum kill, especially if they're distributed randomly. And your argument also makes for interesting balance for the mafia. Are you implying that the mafia kill card could be floating somewhere out there in the hands of a townie.
And before you get all self righteous about no townie in his right mind ignoring the will of the town on this mock lynch, I think it's a distinct possibility that it could just get thrown aside. What if we agree that the 'second' lynch should be the vig? What if we agree to kill someone and somehow the vig has alternate information confirming them as town or confirming someone else as scum? What if they just want to play their role themselves because they think they can trust their own intuition than that of the collective town? Have you given any thought to that?
This speculation is all so silly, since we can't even agree ononelynch let alone a second. >.<ShowSeven Deadly Sins. Six thrilling chapters. One epic adventure.

Ah. That makes sense.
In post 1161, Mehdi2277 wrote:My defense is what? My defense unraveling is a very vague way to try to fos me.
The mock lynch is simple. Treat the lynch like a double day. 2:7 double day is fairly balanced while 2:7 mountanious is scum sided. Cheery there's no point in making a vig "accountable". They're already going to shoot who they suspect but shooting people the town suspects as a whole means a. scum dies b. the next mislynch dies. Cheery if you read most of the late discussion people argued to keep me alive as confirmed scum just to use my kill as a second lynch.
I'm implying I have a decent idea of what set ups don't work. Scum having extra kills is really powerful so the easiest option is just a vig that's not associated with a card given to town. Roles have specifically been vanilla + cards. SK isn't impossible but baby spice sucks as a SK kill and it's better to assume the player who shot her is competent and not dumb.
Mhork while it's a mock lynch it still inflicts death and similar to most deaths it'd end up having a claim along with any connected info. I've seen it work successfully twice.
Safety that are powers that just don't want to claim. It'll be obvious why I don't want to claim if I do, so for now unless I'm about to be lynched I'll stay quiet on my role power.
I don't think we're gonna see eye to eye on this mock lynch thing. I just don't think it would work.

GNR's death flavor tends to be related to the acting party based on actual flavor. Gun tends to be vig/mafia, Knife tends to be SK/maybe mafia, and if you are flattened, it's a giant, squirrel run robot. Consider the possibility that there might be an SK and that the mafia action was either blocked or protected. Not enough evidence for this yet, though.
What do you make, then, of that guy saying not to try and outguess the mod's flavor?
What is the flavor of this vig card?
In post 1251, Jal wrote:if I were the SK I probably would have left Uber alive so he could hunt down the scummies for me as I sat back on my town cred, rejoiced, and killed town at night and seriously scum hunted during the day. But if cards of the same deck are similar of power and Uber or Baby didn't kill last night, then we probably have two vigs at the very least. By the way, I just realized that the card doesn't specify the type of killing action, but I still don't see why scum would kill Baby Spice.
I feel like I should be voting Medhi for Safety not seeing him go anywhere last night but everything keeps else keeps telling me no bleh.
At least one person has claimed to not have any powers at any sort of time. Hmm.
I'm feeling bleh about this game right now.
Isn't it sketch to be speculating about who you 'would have' killed as scum/SK? How does this help scumhunting?
Who claimed total VT?

I'm probably going to vig Monkey person, Xis or Mhork, depending on the day. Mhork has been rubbing me wrong the entire day
P-edit: Everyone is probably listed as a "vanilla" goon or town. Lurker still had a power card. My only point being, someone did claim to have useless cards with no power.
I want to know what the card is that gives you these Vig powers.

I'm not feigning ignorance. We now have two deaths and two people claiming Vig cards along with seemingly everyone agreeing that killing is tied to the roles. Does this mean that scum has no kills? Just a factional kill? Could one of the Vig claims really be scum? (such as monkey)
Also, if mafia gets a factional kill, does that mean someone was blocked? Someone no shot? What happened?

Ugh... Just spent two hours dancing... Highly brain dead...
I saw an outstanding 'blargh! You say you're reading closely but then you ask stupid questions' post. My only real response is that I was just trying to point out the ridiculousness of an obv-town mehdi. I was looking to see if maybe I somehow slipped and missed a giant slip. I'm not trying to stupid or dense or anything. Sometimes I do ask legit questios though.
And to that dude who was all 'Vig Mhork. He's useless and hard to read.' blargh at you! I'm doing what I can. Sorry that I'm not über active; this game is hard for me to get into. I guess a Vig can hit me if they really want to, but it's still a waste. :/
Food for thought, though. I seriously do not believe there are two vigs. Like, at all. I'm really sure that one of them is actually a serial killer. If we're seriously playing this 'tell the Vig what to do' game, I'd seriously consider that crosskill thing, mainly because it would let the Vig kill off the third party. I need to think on this, though. Like many of my thoughts, there's prolly some massive flaw here.ShowSeven Deadly Sins. Six thrilling chapters. One epic adventure.
