Wickedestjr is at L-1 if my calculations are correct.

Wickedestjr: Mitey Mouse, Indigo Heron, Darkstrike_11, tracker
tracker wrote:@papa, why will a box lynch tell us more than a wicked lynch?
Box has tied himself to Wicked, but not the other way around. I think a Box lynch would tell us a lot about Wicked, but a Wicked lynch won't tell us as much about Box.

Actually, wait, no, I take that back. Wicked's unvote earlier ties him back. Forget that. I'm cool with either one.

@Wicked: I'm fully willing to drop the hammer on you. Claim please.

Sadly, I think this is true. :(

I like a Boxman lynch over a wickedestjr lynch.

For what it's worth, I'm finding this game tremendously compelling, even if I am having a hard time figuring out who MiteyMouse's scumbuddy is. I'll see if I can look a little closer tonight.

I'd just like to say I'm here, I've analysed the situation, I've written a post, I'm waiting for Wicked's claim before I post it though.

and I agree with Thesp, this is the most fun game Ive played of Mafia yet!

We're going to have to talk about Mitey tomorrow. You know, if I'm alive and all. She's a distant 4th for me and that's the second time you've definitely labelled her scum.

P.S. Still waiting for Box to respond to this mess.

I concur with you guys. This game is oddly fascinating enough that I'm checking the forums every hour.

@Papa Zico: I don't think you'll be dead tomorrow.

Okay, I am a businessman A.K.A. a townie. I am afraid of the mafia and I win when the they are dead.

@tracker - Haven't I already answered your questions;

Your questions were;
why don't you want boxman at L-1? Why are 2 claims to much to digest? and why don't you want him to claim?

I didn't want him to claim because two claims were to much to digest for me.

I felt that two claims were to much to digest for the reason in this quote;
If me and boxman were partners I most likely wouldn't have vote him in the first place. I didn't want the mafia to have to have two half determined townies. But fine, I obviously don't speak for anybody else when I say that box shouldn't claim so Vote:boxman.
I didn't want boxman at L-1 because I didn't want somebody to accidentally hammer because we still have a bit of time left in this day.

I've been following, but too tired to post anything really.

Interesting stuff wicked. First you L-1 a guy who the majority
wants
lynched, and then you unvote him because you don't want to "accidentally" kill him? Doesn't make sense. The people voting wanted him dead. We're past petty random voting, and now Boxman is doing nothing to help his case here.

Papa Zito, I don't necessarily agree with your whole "Claim please" but, hey, it's getting some interesting tells from other people, so keep it up I guess.

I seem to find Boxman a much more effective lynch than Wickedest right now.
Ski mask? Check! Sawed off? Check! Guilty conscience, fear of death? Check! Check! Check!

Okay, so basically what it comes down to is that a Wicked lynch is less risky because he's either vanilla or scum. So there's that.

I still think we should go with Box.

@Wicked:
I wrote:Oh, now you're calling me a half-determined townie, and are daring us to force a claim from boxman?

Also, your WIFOM defence is vague at best. If boxman and you were partners you would have voted for him anyway knowing that if we enquired you would have used the WIFOM defence.
What do you think of this?

Right I made a PBPA but then didnt save it on word and acidentally deleted it :roll:

The point is on reflection I get a much scummier vibe from Boxman. He casually placed a vote on wicked, and this is the scummiest thing he did. I believe Boxman is a better lynch righ now

unvote Wicked. Vote Boxman


tbh I'd be happy with either, but Box's lynch is probably a better call. Especially since I still think on some level that wicked could be easily swayed town.

I've been reading the topic again, and I still think that a wicked lynch is better than a boxman lynch. However, boxman being lynched isn't that far off, so I'll make my decision and post in a few hours.

Both Wicked and Boxman are the same case. Both are guilty of lurking (Boxman is doing it right now, I think). Both have been casting their votes with a herd mentality. The only real difference that I see is that Boxman made a post detailing who he thinks is scum and town.

On the other hand, Wicked strikes me as someone who is lying, and hence someone I'd still like to see lynched anyway. However, he claimed town, so he has that going for him...for now.

You're right, Papa Zito, lynching Boxman would directly relate Wicked to the lynch.

unvote, vote: Boxman


And with that, gents, and lady, I take a bow before you guys. It's been fun playing with you. I'm not putting much hope towards seeing you guys tomorrow.

I guess it could be true and it does not go along with my previous defense, but that just means that anybody voting for box could have any role.

How come nobody believes my claim?

And the seventh votecount:

Wickedestjr(1): Mitey Mouse,
Boxman(4): Wickedstjr, Agar, Tracker, Indigo Heron
Agar(2): Pepe Zito, Boxman,
Mitey Mouse(1): Thesp
Indigo Heron (1): Darkstrike,

With 9 alive, it takes 5 to lynch. The deadling for day 1 is 11:59 P.M. June 21 EST.
Lag actually does exist in real life. For proof, look no further than Jesus: When he died, it took him three *days* to respawn.
