Why are you throwing around bogus and obviously false attacks?
My attacks might be bogus, but I backed them up with reasons!
ou said you were new to mafia. And that you advocate LAL. So either you're advocating something without experience, or...
Indeed, I'm new to mafia, so yes, I'm advocating LAL with no experience whatsoever. What do you mean by or...?

I mean that in post 57 you said "I'm not convinced by your reason to put me (or anyone) at L -1 at this stage of the game."

But in post 63 you refer to my reason for asking you to claim as what is "obvious."

Meanwhile, you still haven't explained what you think my reasoning (for putting you at L-1) is.
I gave my reasons here,
I'm not convinced by your reason to put me (or anyone) at L -1 at this stage of the game. Its obvious what you're trying to do! Of couse the accused is gonna claim town in this situation, regardless of his allegiance. That being said, I'm town through and through! Unvote, vote porkens.
If your other question is what you're trying to do, its because you want to put me in danger-zone so any misunderstanding will result in a poor town getting lynched, since I'm only 1 vote away.
So, I feel I have fair reasons to suspect you at the moment.
Scummy opening line.
How is that scummy?
OMGUS.
That was not a OMGUS vote, I voted for you because of the same reasons on top.

Korlash, while I am grateful that you're defending me, to my untrained eye it seems that you're trying alittle too hard. An IC should know better, since a town do not know what role others are, you gain nothing by helping me, and it would seem slightly suspicious to others so you could be framing me. I know this comes off as a jerk, so I apologise. I genuinely hope you aren't offended by this, but IGMEOY. Again, I'm sorry.

Lastly, don't appologize so much. The whole "I hope you aren't offended" thing might fly but cut out the "I'm Sorry" stuff. This is a game of part deception so you don't want to make people think you have a guilty conscience. You definitly don't want people to think your soft either. In this game, litterally, confidence is key. If you project a strong confident image in everything you post the stuff you say will sound better. Hell, you might even get people a little afraid of you which is always good. As with all my adivce you can take it or leave it, I don't care.
Thanks for the advice, I will take note of it.

.. or one of those statements was an outright lie.
I'm assuming by statements you mean the 2 posts where I said I'm new to mafia and I advocate LAL with no experience. Neither are lies, its just that I've read the other games quite a fair bit.
The case against Porkens notwithstanding, it is interesting that Wolf didn't choose the easy way out. It seems to me that a simple townie claim would've taken the wind out of Porkens proverbial sails.
I'm sure a mafia would rather lie low as oppose to posting much to avoid making mistakes. I went the "long" way because I had a case against Porkens, I just find it suspicious putting anyone at L -1 just to make him claim. Why wouldn't anyone claim vanilla town as this stage of the game?

Well, it seems to me that nobody is particularly suspicious at the moment, and while I do have a case against Porkens, it is albeit a weak one, and do not find him scummy enough to be comfortable with him at L -1. He could still very much be town, so I'll
unvote
for the moment.

Oh wait, Porkens was already L -2 prior to my unvote. My bad for not counting, but I see no reason to vote for him again until he does something more suspicous. Actually, I have no case against Porkens right now, because I'm pretty convinced by the post that stated his "true" reasons for putting me at L -1. So in an attempt to get more information, the only thing I can do is
vote Ethan
. Talk, man!

After rereading the thread through, I have a question for Porkens.
Platypus sat on the fence, and then unvoted Ethan for no reason. Scum.
While I understand how you would find Platypus suspicious, the way you phrase the sentence seems to indicate that you are very sure of him being the scum. How can a town be so sure of anything, especially at this stage of the game? I would definitely be more wary, as I'm sure you'll agree that what Platypus did is not
that
big of a scumtell. Care to elaborate?

Platypus_Dude wrote: Wolf: Do you think that voting someone who should be prodded will do anything?
Actually, yes, we don't know if hes really been busy or actually lurking. I've read the other games, and usually its custom to vote for people that post little or lurk often as to get them talking. Only a scum would try and lay-low in a bid to prevent making mistakes. That, and I can't do much else at the moment. I think a player will only be prodded after 72 hours, so he still got like 20.

Welcome, MordyS. Thats a pretty substantial first post, I like that. Now that Ethan is replaced, we'll never know those "reasons", so my vote is pretty much pointless. My first course of the day is to
unvote
. My question for Porkens was more because of my suspicion rather then defending Platypus, but if thats how you see it, I can't really argue much.
and it will also give some confidence that Wolf and Platypus are not working together.
I do not see how voting for Platypus now will give confidence that we're not scum buddies, as if I were to do so it will only seem as if I'm only doing so to rid suspicion off myself, and I don't like to vote for someone solely base on that. Its like you're pressuring me to either vote for Platypus or I am scum, and it rubs me the wrong way. However, I do realize that not voting is not helping my cause in anyway, so I'll wait for more information before deciding.

Porkens and Phelan both voting for him - Wolf did not join in to apply pressure.
Actually, Porkens vote on Platypus was the only vote based on suspicion, Phelan's vote was apparently a random one. Then you voted, and pressured me to vote along, gives me the impression that you want to create some sort of bandwagon and looks very suspicious to me.

I suspect that the scum pairing is likely one of these but am not completely convinced since this analysis goes against my gut #1 suspect.
I see that your vote is still on Ethan/MordyS, so I'm assuming hes your gut #1 suspect? Or have i mistaken?

Wow, did you actually went and count the words off our post 1 by 1? That's pretty hardcore. Anyway, what a damning statistic, but if you checked, most of my posts are usually right after another. I can easily fit them into 1 post if I wanted, and as a result get a higher wpp, but I'm the kind of person that writes whatever is in my head straight-away, and then make another post whenever something else pops into my head. Sorry for not posting lately, I guess long games aren't really my cup of tea and my interest is fading, but I'll give my all in this game at the very least.

I assume the part where you said I already claimed was the following post.

Yes, I did claim town, but prior to post 240 I didn't explictly claimed vanilla town. So no, I wasn't lying (I don't see how I'm lying even if I did a claim vanilla town prior to post 240).

He hasn't done anything to cleared those suspicions of mine yet. Why aren't I voting for him yet? Aside from those points, I don't spot anything scummy from him, and there seems to be an attack on delathi which I haven't read the reasonings behind them yet, if I agree with them delathi could be my #1 suspect instead. Theres still 12 days away from the deadline, plenty of time for more scumtell to happen.
