Hot Potato Mafia - Game Over

[Battle Mage]

I guess not but 'buck attempts at order' is kind of in the eye of the beholder. I mean, hardly anyone is following the voting plan, for instance.

Thats because a vocal few keep disrupting it.

And

Vote Kuribo, FOS BM

while I'm at it. There was another person that belongs here too (maybe Riceball?) but I don't remember who.

Ok, i think you probably ought to explain yourself.

[Korts]

vote: crazy

, then

his oneliners look like an attempt at flying under the radar.

[armlx]

Ok, i think you probably ought to explain yourself.

You threw the potato early in response to my plan, which I have said all game set off alarm bells. I agree with TSS on Kuribo, and as for Riceball the whole "Lets not play mafia" thing was a WTF.

The reason I am voting Kuribo over you is I feel my vote is needed there more to ensure nothing dumb happens.

So basically, the entirety of your suspicion of me focusses around the fact i didnt do what you said? rofl.
Gimme a shout when you remove your head from between your buttocks. In the meantime, i really don't think i can take anything you say seriously. 0.o

I don't like "rofl" posts. They're the worst kind of defense you can give.

When you threw that potato at armlx, as he mentioned, were you doing so to spite his plan, or did you find him suspicious for suggesting that plan? Or were you just being silly?

[armlx]

So basically, the entirety of your suspicion of me focusses around the fact i didnt do what you said? rofl.

And by doing so you did exactly what kuribo did: try to buck and semblance of order. Only I actually believe what I said enough to hold the potato.

That's nice for you. I've got no issue with you standing by your own beliefs. That is, until you have an issue with my standing by mine.

It's obvious why you are picking on Kuribo instead of me. Because you know the case is bull, and when i DO go down, i go down making a shitload of noise.
If you get me killed, you can be damn sure that won't be the end of it.

I'll look into the specifics of what you are saying in a sec. For the sheer lols and ridicule of your comments.

So... you responded to Armlx's post right now and insulted him without even knowing what he was talking about? o_0

Armlx was referring to this post:

I suggest a voting system, where we effectively vote 2 people to be possible lynches. They then pass the potatoes between each other repeatedly until one dies. If they pass elsewhere, we simply pass all potatoes to them repeatedly till they die.

Ok.

Lob Sweet Potato at Armlx

Let's roll guys!

[Battle Mage]

BM, the only difference between you and Crazy is that Crazy threw his potato

before

armlx suggested his plan. There's a distinction.

Personally, i dislike the use of plans in games with a different mechanic. More often than not, they are either concieved by scum, or followed by scum, and dissenters (predominantly town) end up getting scapegoated. It allows scum to ride on Armlx's coat-tails, assuming he is town himself. Brings back bad memories... :'(

BM

This post pretty much sums up my thoughts at the time. But because you feel the need to bring up a concept which really irritates me again, i feel like another rant!

First and foremost, why the hell would i want to take

orders

from a guy who is as

unconfirmed

as the rest of ours, and sets out with the objective of

leading the town

?
Anyone can come up with a half-baked scheme. Does that mean suddenly we are all duty-bound to do it? I don't think so buddy!
I think it's pretty obvious why his plan is flawed. Even if it wasn't, the whole idea of mafia is that we have our own opinions. You seem to think that it's a scumtell to not do everything you are told. It's ridiculous, beyond any words. I mean, ffs dude. Do you really think that me not doing what a guy who could just as easily be scum said, is scummy?!

Order is not necessarily bad. But, as i pointed out in the quoted post, it isn't easy to attain in a game of this nature. Certainly, i'm not putting all my eggs in the basket of the majority. Remember, the majority can very easily be pushed around by scum. If we all work as individuals, whilst still taking into account each other's opinions, we will fare alot better.

I'm surprised Armlx suggested something as ill-thought out as this....actually, that's a lie.
It's not even a scumtell that he'd want to lead the town and boss everyone around. But one thing is for damn certain. After playing Ultimatum Mafia, you can bet your ass i'm not investing in any group strategies or half-witted plans concocted by somebody who could be scum themselves. Nor am i going to let other people, again partly comprised of Mafia, decide who i combust in a potatoey mess.

Thats where i stand. At the time, i wasnt being all that serious. It seemed pretty ridiculous that anybody would actually take Armlx's plan seriously, and rather than go on an angry rant, i think i summed up my disapproval pretty succinctly.

Now, Crazy, we come to you. I'm astounded at the irony of YOU being the one to kiss Armlx's ass, when in fact, aside from me, you are the person who i'd say most openly declared their disillusionment with Armlx's plan. Remember that time you threw a potato at me for lols? Yeh, you're a fine one to be giving lectures on systems for using potatoes, when you were the individual Armlx was trying to tackle! Are you seriously trying to tell me that when you lobbed a potato at me for pretty much no reason whatsoever, in the back of your mind, you were thinking "shit, i really wish we had an organised bueraucracy set up in order to co-ordinate our potato throwing. Ah, screw it. HAVE 'AT BM". roflmao!

FoS: Crazy

for outright hypocrisy and buddying up.

I'm not going to condemn Armlx for being arrogant and self-obsessed. That's a personal thing, and not really a scumtell. But i am suspicious of the way he actually seems to believe that everybody who doesn't follow his lead is scum. Or more the fact that he is trying to get those individuals lynched on really shoddy reasoning.

I'm pretty riled up now. So...anyone else wanna have a crack?

When did I say we shouldn't play mafia? I just said that I saw this as more like hot potato, like it says in the thread title. We can't lynch, so voting is inherently useless. The discussion that is going on is just getting people riled up.

I still think this game is being taken too seriously.

[Battle Mage]

a good solution might be to kill Armlx. Regardless of affiliation, it would make me very happy at this point. And it might allow me to give his plan a BIT more credibility if he comes up town.

You just said it right there, Ricetailball.

It's not hot potato, it's hot potato mafia. Your attitude is kind of anti-town.

Well, M4yhem, your momma is so fact, she's known by the locals as the 'Walking Planetarium', because she has a centre of gravity so high, that when she goes out, pedestrians (and sometimes, small cars) actually orbit her.

[the silent speaker]

While I do not agree that people should withhold throwing potatoes until the fakevotes are in consensus, as this will only lead to people dying while we wait for the fakevotes, I do agree that people should be fakevoting freely, since that will provide recordation of who finds whom sucpicious.

BM, I expressed no opinion of whether the quote I pulled said what Skruffs said it said. On its face it is a plausible reading, but I would need to analyze it in context. Out of context, it was the answer to a question Korts asked, nothing more.

[the silent speaker]

EBWOP: And when people

do

throw potatoes, they should only do so to people on whom they have bona fide, expressible suspicions.

I agree voting is useless, however not for the reasons stated, I dont think. Time is of the essence. Noone is keeping account of the votes and as not everyone is talking/voting its not worth it.

Anyway I think the mod should know that BM is a high replacement risk due to the amount of knife crime in his area. Yeah ok, so Capital of Culture... however who says they arent reciting poetry when they kill you...

obv I have the right to slag BM off due to where Im situated in regards to him and that he should know its light hearted.

[DrippingGoofball]

While I do not agree that people should withhold throwing potatoes...

Right or wrong, holding on to HOT potatoes seems against the spirit of the game... the more tosses, the merrier!
