Mini 944- Town Suav├® - TAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANK!!!!! (over)

[Nobody Special]

/confirminating all up in da shizzle

....

(Huh?)

[Nobody Special]

Roles are being sent out and the game will begin once 10 people confirm in thread.

Can we start now?

Huh? Huh?

Can we? Can we? Pleeeeeaaaase???

[Nobody Special]

Bah!!

[Nobody Special]

And make sure it doesn't happen again!

Vote: MrSuave

...for being absent.

[Nobody Special]

unvote

Vote: ConfidAnon

...for logic. Or lack thereof.

[Nobody Special]

Good morning everyone!!!

Oh... wow. There's stuff going on.

unvote

...as it was random. We've moved past that now.



@Kenman: Who's your scumpartner?

[Nobody Special]

I think it was a natural question. I tend to not beat around the bush.

I'm very blunt, as you all will learn.

[Nobody Special]

At the top of the page, there is a link to the wiki. It has many useful articles on types of roles and common set-ups.

[Nobody Special]

Well, excitement mixed with feigned worry, that is.

Do you, by chance, have a post restriction?


Just asking.

[Nobody Special]

tl;dr = Too Long; Didn't Read -- it's used as a summary tag. (See also teal deer.)

[Nobody Special]

@Special: who's your top suspect, and why? Also, why aren't you voting that person?

I don't currently have "a" top suspect. My suspicions are divided between Kenman and duckduck. I highly doubt they're a team, obviously.

I would like to hear more from duckduck about what he thinks about kenman.

@Mod: Please prod duckduck!

[Nobody Special]

---

@Special: I'll assume you're not voting Duck right now because you don't want him lynched just yet. But then why aren't you voting Ken as an alternative?

---

Because I hate vote-hopping. I'd prefer if we targeted one player unto death.

If duckduck redeems itself, I'll certainly consider kenman, as he is second scummiest to me right now.

[Nobody Special]

I am also very eager to hear this reasoning as to why there must be a certain amount of scum in the Not Voting category.

Spyre, don't abandon us now!!

[Nobody Special]

@Mod (and all): I am going to have very limited net access tomorrow (Sunday), and then absolutely no access until Tuesday evening (Pacific time). My apologies!

[Nobody Special]

Hi, me checking in. After almost two days internetless, I've had to catch up on reality/business stuff (read: money) and I've run out of time and steam this evening, so more tomorrow.

[Nobody Special]

After my absence, I should do a QuickRundown over all of youse guys. So, without further ado (numbers are postcounts as of writing):

Coheed: 10

Not nearly enough to get a read on. Please do share more with us!

ConfidAnon: 24

Good level of participation; town vibe.

McZombie 2

dramonic: 15

dramonic has done little, if anything, to advance the game as yet. Trying to maintain the appearance of answering questions, while in reality just ...not, isn't a good indicator. Please, dram, do tell us your feelings on other players, rather than simply responding to questions.

DTMaster: 12 (including pretty pictures!)

Very town read -- this is how mafia should be played. I am usually abhor walls-o-text, but he makes them worthwhile.

duckduck69: 15

SpyreX: 11

duckduck started off well, not so well, shall we say. Yes, we shall say that. IMO, SpyreX hasn't done much better....yet. A question for Spyre, below.

Kenman 11

Error: 404 Replacement Not Found Yet: 0

I don't see much point analyzing a player-slot until there's actual, you know,

activity

there. So, we'll wait. But suffice to say Kenman's replacement will have a lot to live down.

Locke Lamora: 14

Not enough for me. Please post more. Good questions, though. I just want more. I'm difficult to please in that way.

MrSuave: 16 (and lots of edits)

Good activity level. Oh -- that's why. Never mind.

muzzz: 26

Lots of activity here; I see the words outlining the whole bandwagonOHNOES brouhaha but I just don't get it. I mean, it's a distraction at best; I hardly see it as OMIGODSCUMMkillkillkill.

Nachomamma8: 18

Wow -- you're a dude. I hadn't noticed. Anyway. Lots of posting, little actual content. More, please (see "difficult to satisfy" comment, above).

Nikanor: 27

Perhaps the busiest person in this game. Do you guys know my pet theory? No? Well, I'll tell you: scum tend to either lurk profusely OR post so damned much that eyeballs bleed. Guess what? I think Nik is making my eyeballs bleed. Lots of posts, lots of great content, but....still, that red flag is waay up for me.

Nobody Special: 15 (not counting this one)

I don't self-comment. It's like.. oh, never mind. But my vote also is warm and salty. (I'll stop now.)

Parama: 33

Another wall-o-text badguy. Except, this one is reddemed slightly because of actual (gasp!) content AND logic. I like this. (Have I told you the corollary to my Pet Theory? No? Well, here goes: I'm generally wrong about walls-o-text.)

A response:

@Nobody

Because I hate vote-hopping. I'd prefer if we targeted one player unto death.

Scumdar is ringing off the bells here. In a tunnel heavy environment, scum thrives because if said lynch went through: we'd be resetting our reads every day. My personal theory: Scum hates it when we get a collective list of reads, and votes, and do a VC analysis. Rereads nail them. Tunnel reduce the effectiveness of rereads.

You are absolutely right. And, while I actually said what I said, what I

meant

was: I dislike vote-hopping the way many poeple do it, prancing about willy-nilly from one flower to another pollinating with their vote as if it were Spring. Yes, sometimes new info comes to light and we have to re-evaluate. I wasn't clear; sorry for that.


******

Some questions:

@SpyreX: Generally, do you believe lynching all lurkers is a good idea? Why or why not?

@Parama: I just don't agree with the muzzzzz wagon (Is three votes a wagon?) Can you help me understand your reasoning?

[Nobody Special]

Okay, Parama, I'll just go back and read you AGAIN. If I have specific questions, you'll answer them, yes?

[Nobody Special]

Nikanor: 27

Those two need to be right here, next to each other. Because,

there's something fishy afoot.

@SpyreX: Generally, do you believe lynching all lurkers is a good idea? Why or why not?

If I had some bullets I'd be shooting lurkers out of the gate every time.

Lynching? Well, thats tougher and based on about a million factors

soo this is a non-question.

Bolded part A: I suppose you're the Perfect Mafia Player, who never makes mistakes? Sheesh, I even admiited, right there, for all to see, that I'm usually wrong. Doesn't stop it from raising a red flag for me.

Bolded part B: Way to dismiss the question. I think it's a valid question. Do you also doubt the existence of the Invisible Pink Unicorn?

[Nobody Special]

@Nobody
Your summary post is a textbook case of IIoA. I find the lack of scum reads dishearting. It feels like I'm rereading the thread and you're the echo of the common voice. What are your scum-reads specifically.

Scumiest so far, if you'd bothered to read, is Nikanor.

It's still early in the day, yet. Someone will slip up, sooner or later. (Hopefully sooner.)

[Nobody Special]

I didn't say I believed him.

[Nobody Special]

Votecount?

[Nobody Special]

I was waiting for the votecount.

[Nobody Special]

Are there open questions aimed at me?

What do you people want from my life??

[Nobody Special]

I would like to scumhunt, please. Death is a frightening option.

[Nobody Special]

Of course I am. But tomorrow. I have to go now.

Silly boy, you don't have to teach me. I do know how to play....

[Nobody Special]

Ummmm....

ConfidAnon?

What do I win??!?

[Nobody Special]

I could've sworn I'd already claimed.

Oh, well.

I'm just a little Vanilla Townie person.

[Nobody Special]

BAH!!!
