Mafia 110: Mafia in Hell, Michigan (Tied.)

[Musher333]

Why, out of curiosity?

Asshattery. He has yet to post content and when he chimed in we were well beyond the brush-off-criticism-with-a-joke stage.

his join date is within the past 30 days, isn't it reasonable to think he has no idea what the hell he should say?
When I first started playing mafia, my posts where highly similar to his, in that they had no content in them and consisted of dumb things.

Lynch out to straighten him out.

Or we can try actually looking for scum?

Why do you assume newbs aren't scum?

Scum instantly have more information than vanilla townies as they know who is scum (and in a game with basic roles) who is town. This information can expose them if they comment on someone with something that makes it sound like they know the side that person is part of.

Meh. Scum can generate in-depth content just fine in my experience.

2 of the 3-4 full games i've played were in road to rome so that might be why, but in my experience scum either tend to be really chatty and co-operative or in the habit of lurking.

Then one you're attacking for being based on a vibe.

How am I attacking him? I just said that I find it shady that he has a vote based on "vibes"

[Ythan]

And that's not an attack?

[crypto]

Horror, he means attack in terms of argument, not malice. I think.

[Ythan]

Attack in this game tends to mean an attempt to break down an argument.

[horrordude0215]

Sorry about that... more noob questions

[Ythan]

No problem. Understand my FoS now?

[horrordude0215]

Sorta... I would've probably done the same thing if I were in your shoes, now that I know what your talking about lol

[jbernier93]

Why do you assume newbs aren't scum?

A better question would be, why do you assume they are?
His actions are far more newbish than scummy, and Ythan seemed to indicate that lynching him would be good because he's being a stupid noob. However, I think that it's better to lynch someone because they are being scummy, not because they are being newbish.

[Ythan]

I think it's a bit early to close the case on him. He could very easily be scum.

[jbernier93]

I think it's a bit early to close the case on him. He could very easily be scum.

So could any other player?

[Ythan]

Specifically regarding what he has posted. I think it's too early to call it a newbie mistake.

[Nobody Special]

Wow. Posty posters post much.

My thoughts thus far:

We need to hear more from Lowell, Dr. Cyanide, WRP_Beater, Rikenslope (promised), pman5595, ace5993 (promised).

Cirno needs to post more substance.

@DedicatedScribe: Why did you feel the need to tell us you probably would not move your vote? Also, why do you feel you may not move it? (Please note, these

are

two separate and disctinct questions. Please answer both. Thanks!) Oh, and third question: Why the rush to lynch?

@StKerrigan: What are your thoughts on lynching lurkers?

@WRP_Beater: You might be new, but you came in at exactly the wrong moment. Can you give us some thoughts on the game? Or mafia in general? Or, really, anything?

I'm waiting for a votecount before I place my vote. It is around the witching hour, per our Esteemed Mod.

[Nobody Special]

Well, I should specifically ask, I guess:

@Mod: votecount, please?

[SaintKerrigan]

@StKerrigan: What are your thoughts on lynching lurkers?

Depends on the type of lurking. Plain ol' lurking, do nothing about. Active lurking, on the other hand, is something I would consider lynching over.

Why ask me specifically?

[WRP_Beater]

@WRP_Beater: You might be new, but you came in at exactly the wrong moment. Can you give us some thoughts on the game? Or mafia in general? Or, really, anything?

Yes, I'm new

here

. You know, I've played in 6 mafias, 5 playing right now, 2 in MS. But I've never survived till the end . I know tactics, but if I'm scum I'm never able to resist pressuring. Believe me, if I was scum I'd do something wrong under pressure, but don't misunderstand: I'm not forcing you to pressure me . So, I won't claim right now, even if I see I look suspicious.

Why is Beater not dead yet?

[SaintKerrigan]

Why is Beater not dead yet?

Good point. That last post just reeked of scum.

Unvote: RichardGHP. Vote: WRP_Beater.

[Musher333]

Doubt he is scum, scum wouldn't be stupid enough to post something like that surely.

[crypto]

It didn't reek of scum; it reeked of WTF-bang. Your wording strikes me as opportunistic. I'd FOS you, but I don't want to scare you into changing your vote. I still like your vote where it is.

[crypto]

Doubt he is scum, scum wouldn't be stupid enough to post something like that surely.

Too Townie

[WRP_Beater]

Why is Beater not dead yet?

Because it's 11 to lynch.

[crypto]

Gah, I like this guy.

But I'll like him even better dangling from a necktie.

[WRP_Beater]

Also.

And yes, Beater has a delicious-delicious aura of lurking to him.

Not my fault if there are 3 new pages a day here. Where I use to play there are max 15-20 posts a day in a mafia.

But I'll like him even better dangling from a necktie.

Liked it.
