Mini 660 - Star Trek: DS9 Mafia (Ruined = Over)

[Ozymandius]

My internet problems continue, but I'm working on it. I think more pressure on lurkers will help, I know I've been lurking too, but I'm working on it.

vote: Mana_Ku

[Light-kun]

I personally think pressure voting one person to about L-2 or 3 would be more effective, Ozzy.

Vote: td

[Ozymandius]

Yeah that's what I meant to do. My mistake.

unvote, vote td

[ZONEACE]

Just a note, my posting may decrease over the next week or two because i sent my laptop in to get some repairs and will stuck using my boyfirends computer when he's not busy gaming and using the computer while i'm at work.

[ChannelDelibird]

td has been prodded.

Meanwhile, Pie has requested replacement due to loss of access. I'll start looking.

[ChannelDelibird]

"Home is where the heart is...but the Vote Counts are made of latinum."

td (4): ZONEACE, Timeater, Light-kun, Ozymandius

Not voting (7): frelaras, Pie, CallMeLiam, td, Mana_Ku, sekinj, Nudude

With 11 alive, 6 votes will lynch.

[Mana_Ku]

Sorry that I haven't posted yet. I was very busy lately and I have to read some other games as well to see what happened. I'll try to write down my thoughts about the recent developments, like the Jebus kill, tonight. Why was jebus killed?

[sekinj]

Martok challenged him in honourable combat.

mod: how many to lynch?

Since we don't have much else to go on, I like the pressure votes, i just don't want to over do it and accidentally lynch.

[ChannelDelibird]

With 11 alive, it will take 6 votes to lynch. I'll go and edit that into the vote count.

Meanwhile,

farside22 replaces Pie.

Shower with praise!

[farside22]

Hi all. Weekends are busy unless the little one naps I won't get a read thru till Monday. Thanks!

[ChannelDelibird]

I'm now looking for a new td, who didn't respond to his prod. Bear with me.

[sekinj]

hi farside... what is this 3 games with you??

[Timeater]

thanks for prodding, deli

[td]

Sorry, I'm still here. Post coming up.

[ChannelDelibird]

/stops looking for a replacement. Hooray!

[Timeater]

Sooooooooooooooooo!

[sekinj]

well, now we are less one annoying newbie, and have one confirmed federation.

[sekinj]

Oh, and we lost our tracker...

[sekinj]

I currently like Time's case against Liam. I want to add the quote below:

Wait, so would Martok be a town-aligned person, or scum aligned?

I say let's lynch all the non-DS9ers. I'm tired of silly questions like this.

Hoping this is a joke.

I just think it is suspicious how he brings it up, not making anything of it himself, almost hopping someone else will jump on it for him.

Yeah that one stuck out to me at first too, but i let it go thinking it was just me being paranoid. Clearly though it wasn't just me being paranoid.

[Light-kun]

Sekinj! You, Farside, and I are all in two games with each other. When he was like: Pie replaces Farside, I was like, "What are the odds!?" *Obviously higher than I speculated*

Anyway, Liam has been relatively scummier than other players, but there are the lurkers who I want to post. So, my vote is staying on td till his bigger post comes up. Afterwhich, I will give Liam a once over, and I will see if I can come up with anyone else who seems suspicious.

[Timeater]

FoS Light-Kun

for trying to disassociate himself from lurkers when he himself only has 11 posts.

[frelaras]

I currently like Time's case against Liam.

QFT. When viewed in context, Liam is throwing around a lot of suspicion, especially to devalue minor character claims (eg the Rom line). In fact we've just lost a townie based on what many saw as a inadequate character claim (the behaviour didn't help either). The massclaim comment didn't help much either. Liam mentioned being busy, but pressuring him seems more useful than the recently prodded td.

vote: Liam

[Timeater]

td mafia is a commitment, if you want to stay in the game you're gonna have to do a little better than 2% of the total thread count. (And thats what you have, about exactly 2% of the total posts) Consider yourself prodded so I'll unvote for now and go back to my Liam vote where I feel comfortable...

Unvote
Vote: Liam

[td]

Also, sorry again for not actually posting days ago. One of my colleagues called in sick, so the rest of us spent nearly every waking hour working (it's holiday time and we were short-staffed before). Anyway, I'm on leave for the next week, so I'll definitely have enough time for this game.

Worf and Martok are really the only Klingon characters on the show. Worf is a regular, Martok isnt. So basically right there he was saying he was Martok.

That is, in fact, wrong. I can think of at least two other Klingon characters appearing in more than one episode (and several Klingons appearing in only one episode).

--

Here he is, trying to claim that Martok and Worf might not be town aligned, which is quite preposterous. And if he was a fan of the show, which he claimed, he would know that. Very scummy.

No. CallMeLiam is claiming that

a Klingon

might not be town-aligned. And yes, there are Klingons on the show that would fit there perfectly.

--

Now he's trying to drill home the changeling-paranoia factor, which would completely undermine town attempts and discerning claims, and would just make things very difficult if we're always assuming anyone could be a shapeshifter at any time. Personally, I think if there are shapeshifters, it'll be a nightaction, not some automatic role assumption before the game starts. Paranoia and confusion - thats what he's trying to instill in us, being the first to mention it and claiming several times he will not be taking roleclaims into consideration.

As ChannelDelibird has revelead when announcing ZONEACE's daykill, we're up against “dominion cowards.” That makes it

highly

likely that there is at least one shapeshifter among us.

--

Even Rom could be with the Dominion? Are you kidding? Why would a shapeshifter impersonate ROM? Puh-lease. Here he is again, d1, trying to drill home more confusion tactics by saying that anyone could be with the dominion.

And “confusion tactics” is exactly what the shapeshifter infiltration is all about. You probably should go watch Paradise Lost (4x12) again.

“In the end, it's your fear that will destroy you.”

I'll leave it at that for today and catch some sleep. If there's anything I've overlooked or you want me to comment on, let me know.
