Sure, it makes it seem more likely that Jed is innocent because he is aggressively attacking people a lot, but he could just be doing that to preempt negative attention. By stating your points 2 & 4, you're in effect buddying him.
I understand your point, but I wanted to let darklight figure out on himself that the reason jed is suspicious of him is not to "support me", but because dark has been acting rather suspicious.

@Jed, I think he's definitely trying his best to try and find scum...or he is scum or he's trying to wave the suspicion off him to another person. One of the two.

Ok, I apologize to all for being aggressive :P

I'm used to real-life mafia, where you vote because of "I heard X move" etc.

I play real-life mafia all the time, like once every week or two weeks at least, but we barely use accusations like that. I feel playing real-life mafia helps with being a bit more aggressive and with reading reactions.

So, did you think your play was aggressive? Because I don't, especially not after you unvoted jed after some minor pressure.

Did you find any interesting reactions amongst the other players?

A rather interesting opinion/comment as it tells us absolutely nothing about your opinion on darklight. And even if it does, it leaves a lot of wiggle room for you. Either way, I don't like this post.

Well, I don't like voting until at least page 5.

And really. I don't have a opinion on dark right now. My opinion is that he seems town, yet he made a newbie mistake, satisfied? What are your opinions on dark??

Why would Almaster want to vote for someone inactive? They'd hardly be scum..

Well, normally the votes for inactive people are used as a way to make pressure to them and make them post something.

That post is fairly pointless,
but so is the question that led to it
. I do agree that her answer is definitely dodgy though.

I'm still holding my vote to DarkLight though, I think he's just playing dumb.
Get off the bandwagon and put down the handbook!

Good, your vote tells us 2 things:

1) your vote isn't random
2) something is off with my vote according to you

If you could elaborate on the second thing please.
moose wrote:Is this some sort of scum tactic?
Obviously.

No, seriously, it is easier for us to tie posts to a person with visual material, such as avatars. It also adds more character to you as a poster/player, imo.
I disagree on every count.
Could you please give details on this? Also, are you saying that they might be scum together?
Honestly that was just to get the ball rolling. It worked. I R PRO WOOT


Now.... one thing I do find interesting and I know It has no real meaning but that two pokemon people are in this game. Pokemon often live inside little bubbles where they do not bathe. Scum build can happen that way. I think we got our two mafia. Good game town.

I wonder why you find the page we're on to be essential to your vote.

And yes, I am, but you could've said your opinion on him the first time we asked. Unambiguously.

My opinion on dark is that he's an overeager newbie, who, yes, made mistakes and felt slightly scummy to me, but his most recent comment, however, feels like a scum slip up to me:

Ok, congratulations. Albeit, your post didn't really kickstart the game. And if you would give your opinion on the "rolling ball", that'd be very much appreciated.

The random stage ended with the third game post or something, I suggest you leave yours at the door and comment on the game so far.

I wonder why you care about that. That aside, it's more based on evidence than actual pages. Sorry if I didn't make that clear.

Fine, okay, you're right.

Well...yeah. If Belili actually posted something, I would understand...But...why do you say that Belili would hardly be scum, dark?

How I would know? Because I'm assuming that the scum would be active in the thread... Fair reason?

I'm still holding my vote.

The avatar was a suggestion. I have suggested it several times in several games as have other IC's in many other games. No where did I boss everyone into getting one, I suggested getting one because it is easier for everyone to remember you by as at the time of the suggestion there were 4 avatarless players. I couldn't care less if there was one player without an avatar, but 4 is a bit too much.

If you don't want to comment on the game, then why play it? By the sound of your posts as of yet, you are very uncommitted to this game.

1) It pressures them into doing something.
2) Mafia like to not draw attention to themselves. Not posting early is a good way to get away with this because posts are heavily scrutinized during the RVS because there is nothing to go on anyway.
3) Even if said player is town, there is nothing to be gained by leaving them alive, so lynching them is a marginal loss at worst (at best, you nail a mafia you would have otherwise never gotten ... because you can't suspect someone if they don't say anything to suspect).
