Mafia 103 - Ktown Mafia (Game Over)

[mikeburnfire]

Gah. When I said "12 players or less" I mean 12 players total, not 12 players still alive! You've tricked me Kdub!

Ah, well. I can still work with this. Not *too* big. I'll start digging into this during the weekend.

[mikeburnfire]

Before I begin my re-read, can somebody give me a brief summary of what happened so far so that I have some framework in mind?

[mikeburnfire]

Okay, did a quick readthrough. Thanks to wicked for the skeleton version.

I'm a bit frustrated that we lost our vigilante on Day 1, but given how Haylen posted, I can't say I can blame anyone explicitly. Sir Chris's unvote-quick revote is something I consider suspicious.


Initially, I liked the amount of participation by like Mr Squirrel, Wickedjr, furry, and Inquisitor. Mr Squirrel make some sensible posts, and his replacement Rhinox gives me good vibes. Furry and Inquisitor also seemed legit (even before Inq got lynched).

I agree with Rhinox that malpas doesn't look good. He keeps voting people I have good vibes about, I feel that he's lurking a bit, and he just really offsets me. I have similar feelings about cruenight. Even though I would consider him slightly less suspicious due to his participation, I felt that some of his posts were unhelpful, I didn't like a lot of his votes, and I just get bad vibes from him.

I think that even though some players have turned the spotlight on Wicked, we should look elsewhere. He's been very active and we can always scrutinize his lengthy posts to see if he's linked to anyone later. Today we should go after those who have posted little or posted unhelpfully. Since both the mal and crue wagons only have two votes, I'm going to side against the person I feel is more suspicious.

vote: Malpascp

Now, if you want me to give input on a specific player I can go back and to a iso/pbpa and get back to you. And if I missed something you think is important let me know.

[mikeburnfire]

When you view all the posts by one specific player. Down at the bottom you can isolate their posts.

[mikeburnfire]

Alright, time to take charge. If we want to wring somebody up, allow ample time for a claim, then decide whether or not to postpone the lynch we had better hurry. I propose we state our top three candidates. Deadline is Saturday at 11, so in the next 48 hours (by Thursday) I would like everyone to follow suit. We'll take the top two candidates with the most psuedo-votes and split our final votes among them.

It's like the story of Jesus and Barabbus, except they could both be innocent. Or guilty.

vote: kunkstar7 (formerly malpascp)
vote: crueknight

I'll post more in a few hours. I think somebody asked me to do an iso on somebody.

[mikeburnfire]

Forgot to note: I only placed two pseudo-votes myself because I don't have a third yet.

[mikeburnfire]

Apologies for my absence. I'm kinda mooching internet right now, and the signal comes and goes. I really need to buckle into this game soon, but that might not happen until after

winter solstice

Christmas. Sorry!

[mikeburnfire]

Okay, so we've got 10 players alive, 5 players dead, and no scum located yet. I owe it to you guys to hit this game head-on. However, my internet connection sucks (if you saw it you'd think I was using dialup from 1995) so every time I try to get into this game I am unsuccessful. It make take me a while, but I'm going to make sure we hit scum today.

[mikeburnfire]

Okay, I must say that Sir Chris looks great everytime he posts. I still think malpascp was worthy of a vote, so I'm going to go after kunkstar. But SolemnJ's reaction to the vanilla claim was superscummy and I don't like the massclaim suggestion by Faraday. If anything, we should No-Lynch to get an odd number of players and THEN role claim.

vote: kunkstar

I've given up on trying to read this game. There's so much fluff too many players and replacements. Not to mention Wicked's posts, which alone would have taken days to sift through. So, this is all I have.

[mikeburnfire]

If I had to make a choice right here I would have to be wicked, after reading over some pages I feel that he is trying to get the town to accept him an one of their ranks, not much else.

Shhh. Nobody tell him.

[mikeburnfire]

Is that vote count correct? I know I'm voting kunkstar.

Thanks, I missed that.

[mikeburnfire]

@mikeburnfire: In your earlier post during last day, you pseudo-voted me and Crueknight. Do you not think that Crue is still lynch worthy? Why did you not mention him at all in your recap post?

Why would an odd number make a difference in a claim?

Meh. I really didn't find anything of late that made me want to vote him.

Having 10 players is just as deadly as 9: if we mislynch and there is 4 mafia, then we lose in both cases. Having 8 players is just as bad as 7. So if we're going to mass-claim, we should let the mafia remove one more player. It brings them closer to their goal, but makes it more difficult to fake claim.

[mikeburnfire]

Well, a mass claim is a good idea for the reasons you suggest. I didn't think about it that way, but it might be a good way to jump-start this dying game.

vote: mass roleclaim

[mikeburnfire]

replacing in isn't ever easy.

This game moreso than others, I believe.

[mikeburnfire]

Just letting everyone know that I might be V/LA up to one week starting tomorrow. Hopefully this won't interrupt the game too much.

V/LA is noted.

[mikeburnfire]

So many replacements and boring posts. I wish the mod would just pull a vigilante and thin a few of the heard for us.

[mikeburnfire]

kunkstar needs more votes go go go!!!

[mikeburnfire]

As a player, I think he's realistic and sensible. This could mislead me if he's actually scum. I don't really remember SolemnJ off the top of my head. Didn't stand out much. But I feel like Dj is so-so, leaning town. He just replaced in, and it's been hard for me to focus on this game, so I can't say decisively.

I get bad vibes from cruelty, but can't pinpoint why. Maybe it's just the avatar, childish as that may be.

I like Sir Chris. He seems to be the most prolific and influential player in this game, and if we kill him the game will probably drag. As for whether I think he's scum or not.... no. IIRC, he's made points I agree with, and I think his wagon was run up unnecessarily.

[mikeburnfire]

Still here, but nothing has changed. Sir Chris is town, and the votes on him are misplaced. The people who aren't voting need to put their vote somewhere.

[mikeburnfire]

^Active lurking? Supongo. I'll admit that I'm not really scumhunting. I'm waiting for that chord to strike that really gets me into the game, but nothing has happened yet. And there aren't any bandwagons to investigate, no players that stand out distinctly, and no role-related information that can move this game forward. 10 players alive with 3-4 scum makes this seem like a lost cause.

So I'm sticking with my kunk vote. If he turns up scum then I'll probably get tuned in with this game. If not then, whatever. The main reason that I like Sir Chris isn't because I think he's town. Not entirely, anyway. I feel like he's really into this game, and if he dies then this game will fissile out quickly.

Even though I don't care for this game at the moment, I don't want to replace out because that would just stall this game even more than its already lethargic pace, and I know that I could get into it if just

something interesting

would happen.

[mikeburnfire]

Damnit. I don't want to put my vote where kunkstar's is.

unvote, vote kirbyoshi

[mikeburnfire]

We've 2 days till deadline. ANYONE NOT VOTING NEEDS TO PUT A VOTE DOWN. Mike and Kunkstar's vote seem to be doing very little too, so I'd suggest they switch to one of the 2-man wagons at least, unless they strongly oppose them.

2 of the people leading the kirbo wagon are now significantly less confident. The opther 3 on it just jumped on the bandwagon, this is a horrible lynch. Seriously.

Awesome grandstanding, scum.

unvote, vote Faraday

[mikeburnfire]

Don't look at me. I didn't ask for it.

Perhaps I got the wrong impression from Faraday. It looked to me like he was throwing us under the bus for doing what he wanted in the first place.

[mikeburnfire]

or we could lynch kunkstar.

[mikeburnfire]

Due to real life issues I have asked for replacement. I should have done this long ago. I apologize.

I will begin looking for a replacement.
