Thanks! You're the exception to the rule. That is how much I really don't enjoy playing with you.MafiaSSK wrote:So as of current I have two votes on my wagon on page 3. Both are based off of policy lynching me. This is not fine for one of the voters, JDodge. He has made an anti policy lynching thread in MD so this is clearly odd for him to vote me solely based off that fact. This is especially considering the fact that this was a serious vote from JDodge and a serious vote means you would be a fan of their lynch.

2. How would you describe your playstyle?
3. What would you consider your best Mafia game and your worst?
4. Do you prefer Random Question Stage or Random Voting Stage and why?

6. What time zone are you and when do you post?
7. Do you get nervous before posting?
2. Do some poking around in MD and find out yourself.
3. If elected I will raise your taxes

I would like to again bring attention to this:
1. What is your reasoninghasdgfas wrote:Not random.
2. Why did you not give it to begin with
3. What do you stand to gain from not giving reasoning aside from obscuring your motivation for voting someone and keeping from sparking discussion?-

Every single game I've ever played with you you skate by on the bare minimum then act like this when you're pressured on it, and I'm sick of it. So please, prove me wrong, then I won't care anymore. There's no point in playing with people who are not even playing the game, and at very least most of the chronic lurkers are like that for aSSK wrote:And for two, what makes me so damn special I deserve to be an exception to it?reason.
So I cannot define the exceptions to the theories by which I play - theories which I myself define I might add - because I might be biased in changing them.SSK wrote:And three, we can not trust that I am an exception to this rule as you are biased especially after a case has been written on you with a vote.
Yeah.
There's random and there's not random. There is no RVS, and I forget who posted that thread about it (either Shea or Shanba, I think it was Shea) but I recall agreeing with it entirely. There is no RVS, there is no RQS, and I'm sick and tired of people defining stages within a dynamic game, especially considering that the circumstances change continually and considerably depending on the situation.SSK wrote:I think I will comment on this part. Why do you ask these questions? How is placing a not random vote without reason that significant in the RVS?
Now, if someone were to vote on page 15 with just "not random", how would you expect people to react? Why should we let people skate by just because it's page 2?-

Awwww, you're like me circa 2008 :3Shotty to the Body wrote:Because page 2 is a totally different world than page 15? You just give this speech about how circumstances should be what we determine acceptability by and then say that we should ignore the huge circumstantial differences between pages 2 and 15. Whether you like it or not there is a certain zone at the beginning of the game where voting for little to no reason is perfectly acceptable and in fact expected of players so we can begin to generate content. If we replaced that with super serious late day play day 1 would like this.
vote atila the hun cuz i dont like barbarians
look at the roman's scummy voting lets lynch him
k
Yes, there are huge circumstantial differences between pages 2 and 15. That is completely irrelevant to my point, which is that if a vote has a reason,you should state your reason. There is no such thing as a vote with no reason to it - randomness is a reason, not liking a person (MEMEME) is a reason, anything is a reason. Not giving a reason is pointless - any "reactions" you get are going to be less than if you'd just stated your reason beforehand. All you're going to get is a bunch of minor psychological feedback that has minimal relevance to anything more than whether or not someone is bothered by it.
I attribute boredom with the game to chronic lurkers. SSK signs up for so many games, I doubt he'd be "bored" with things, hence I believe him to just be taking the piss, which I believe to be a good reason to off him.Shattered wrote:I can appreciate that you two have some history. However, JD, please clarify this: What 'reason' do you attribute to most chronic lurkers, and why do you feel that SSK doesn't have a valid 'reason?'
I have no solid rules. Anyone reading my writings on theory can see that I speak solely in theoretical senses, and that I myself cannot declare them to be true - I do only what I feel necessary for achieving my win condition, and nothing more.Shattered wrote:I see what you're saying -- really I do -- but I myself have some biases and inherent 'rules' that, while flexible to a certain extent, don't change all that much. If you have a bias, why would you change it without a very good reason?
I feel there are no stages because it is a dynamic game, so no, I'm not going to give you a cop-out answer so that someone can later point to that and say OH LOOK OH LOOK OH LOOK. I don't see any reason to demarcate a game into stages, nor do I see any reason to have a random vote stage whatsoever. Anything even minorly justified (such as my own vote) is going to be inherently better than random because you will spark discussion (such as this one) and get the ball rolling, as opposed to not sparking discussion (see everything else) and then suddenly saying OH WE NEED TO PLAY THE GAME NOW.Shattered wrote:Tell me, how do you think we leave the "random" stage? How do you, personally, recognize that we have shifted? (I can appreciate that you may think this question null, as you seem to not acknowledge the existence of a "stage." Please answer regardless.) How do you think other people may recognize this, if different from your recognization?
I feel that the recognition of a random voting stage by the majority of the MafiaScum populace is a tragic lack of understanding in the basic theoretical concepts behind the game itself.

So your motivation for revealing it when you did was that you were worried it would bring heat upon you, right? (Note: This is in and of itself not an incriminating question; self-preservation isn't just a scum thing tbh)hasdgfas wrote:
I saw you calling me out and I saw Elias and socrates wondering why I voted. It's important to how I'm playing because I want to see how people react to things. I really wanted to wait for rover, but I sensed tension from more than just you regarding that vote, and I figured "wait for rover" wouldn't have worked at that point.JDodge wrote:

Fair enough.cow wrote:Basically, I find it useful to place a vote like that very early in the game to get us discussing things early and so I can see reactions and gauge why they react that way.-

Look in MD, you should be able to find the first Book of JD thread; that thread has a link to the first. Read the first one first (obviously) or the second one will make significantly less sense.Shattered Viewpoint wrote:

There should be no delineation, because there are other ways to start the game.

The trick here is delineating where and when that stage-shift occurs.

Then why feel the need to even state "RQS TIME!"? Why the need to wait if you just want something to go on later?SSBF wrote:It helps me think better. I know that if I need to look at evidence, I'll be able to look at these questions and the random posts and they could possibly help us later on.
Enlighten me as to how.SSBF wrote:Not only that, it allows less oppertunities for a mislynch to happen later on in the game.
I'm not afraid of words. I'd like to see the longer explanation.cow wrote:That's what it boils down to. There's a slightly longer, more convoluted explanation, but yeah.-

If you're so concerned about lurking, then start calling people out; there's no reason to stop a discussion (which is better than nothing inherently) just because you're worried someone will lurk through it.Elias_the_thief wrote:

Seriously though, as far as someone can do something on page 4 day 1, I've been doing something. And even if I were doing nothing, your theoretical argument is worse than nothing. At least "nothing" doesn't make a whole lot of noise that can be lurked through.-

The issue is that nothing in mafia falls into neat little boxes; the game itself is an indefinable concept, more of a genre than a game in and of itself. If we must consider it a game in and of itself, it is one of infinite variations, with each little tiny thing being a completely different game - you cannot use definites because nothing itself is definite.Shattered Viewpoint wrote:
Perhaps nothing,hasdgfas wrote:It wasn't actually open for anyone, as it was directed at him, but why do you think that breaking it down into stages helps anything? What does saying "Here's RVS and here's RQS" do at all?for you.Perhaps something for me. I like things in neat little boxes.
Actually, you can't prove I exist, nor can I prove you exist. You saying I don't exist would make it so to your subjective reality.Shattered wrote:

I get your point, though, about saying that a delineation should not be made [I disagree, however].
You can't split a game into stages as a rule of thumb if they don't always happen - it's unsound on a theoretical stage and intellectually disingenuous.Shattered wrote:
I can't take responsibility for your reading "always" into my implication. But, more often than not, there is a RVS. I'm not going to drum up stats to prove it; I know I'm right.JDodge wrote:

I'm not sure I agree that our digression is helpful; therefore, I'm not going to continue in this thread. After this game, I'll probably start a thread in MD.JDodge wrote:

Another question, JD: How can general arguments over delineation be harmful, yet our discussion is more helpful that Elias' "nothing?" I truly don't follow the logic.-

Over the past week, I've been busy writing papers, studying for tests, got assigned jury duty, worked 6:30-6:30 saturday and sunday, had to do all the work for the Song Contest and still couldn't get the chance to get to this. Since my free time doesn't seem to be getting any slack in the near future, I'm going to have to unfortunately bow out at this point.

The fact that my internet has been cutting out has delayed me until now. I'm starting my read-through now; I will be going through the thread from where I left off, answering the points that I feel need answering. If anything I mention has already been tackled, please just assume I haven't gotten that far yet until I finish my read-through. My idea is to emulate what I would have said had I been here as closely as possible.-

I would say that this is highly relevant to this game solely because the topic came up within this game.Elias_the_thief wrote:
I'm not super concerned about lurking. My point is that all you accomplish is making a lot of noise and drawing attention away from the game thread.

This shows a complete lack of understanding for what I was saying. Further, this is WRONG.

No, it was basically gut. It was better than a random vote, but really the choice between you and rover was based on nothing solid. Also, I never said rover was more anti-town, I said no lynch is more anti-town than voting mod.

How did you choose? random.org? Coin flip? Gut?
In retrospect, if rover is more anti-town than I am, why is your vote still on me?
In the vein of "somewhere better to put my vote", I'd like to see confidanon show up and respond to some of the points raised against him, and I'd like to see rover show up at all.
What exactly do you mean by "this is the best place if the day were to end there"? You do realize how much that sounds like "this is what will look best for me if someone goes back to look later", right?cow wrote:Based on things that had happened to the point where I responded, I felt that was the best place for my vote if the day were to end there.
Do you think that only scum would be irritated by being looked at?

I find it interesting how you word this as wanting to "push a decent case on someone" as opposed to wanting to find scum. Secondly, what did you find from the answers to these questions? From what I can tell, you haven't even touched on that.

With Random Question Stage, not only does it bring in more information and help reduce the risk of mislynches, it also reduce the possibility of an lynch during the very early stage of the game when we're just getting started, as it would help stimulate discussion in an easier, safer, and a potentially better way.
I'm rather interested in why you bothered asking these questions and then completely ignored them. It reeks of distraction, and shame oneveryoneelse for not realizing that.

Can you clarify exactly what your point was? I'm confused.cow wrote:Wow, great strawman. That was not what I said at all.
This is going to sound unnecessarily harsh, but SSBF's posts make me groan every time I read one. I mean, they're justbad.
Not commenting on the majority of the discussion re:SAMP and his little meltdown over his self-proclaimed "persecution because I said I had an ego". This was aneasily predictable response. You have no one to blame but yourself.
Can you guys call me when you stop your petty little bullshit and start playing the game please? You're acting like a group of 10 year olds, seriously. It's depressing.
Page 9 seems like time-wasting and wheel-spinning. Can we get back into some arguments without it devolving into stupidity again?
if i were at a desk it would have a head-shaped hole in it nowSSBF wrote:Goes completely off-topic talking about the Gunnkerig Court.
Pretty scummy read here. Mafia games are for mafia games being played, not for off-topic stuff like the Gunnkerig Court.
Yeah there's not much going on. Disappointed by how little is being contributed by Unsight.
I feel it prudent to choose between the two biggest wagons, so I am going tounvote, vote: ConfidAnonand request a claim. Most of the stuff on Buttonmen seems easily explainable by inexperience and stupidity. Confid has been around a lot longer and has no such excuse.-

I look at things this way. There are two possibilities.Shotty to the Body wrote:Not sure how I feel about this. While Confid looks incredibly bad now, this is also an opportunity for scum to ride an easy mislynch if we're wrong and then we're going into a shitty D3 MYLO (assuming 5-3). I need to reread and rethink this game.
1. He's scum, there was no accident.
2. It was an accident, which makes himjust as dangerous to the town.
Either way, I'm not inclined to let him live and I'm certainly not inclined to entertain another wagon unless there's some extremely good reasoning behind it.
I want Cow to further flesh out his case on SSBF to see if that extremely good reasoning is there. Quite frankly, I expect more out of you and I'm disappointed by how little you actually seem to be contributing. On another note, why exactly are early day FoSes "useless"? How is expressing a suspicion an anti-town action?
Shotty, I want you to explain exactly what you think exonerates Confid aside from it being an "easy mislynch", because even if I am wrong it's an easy mislynchfor a reason. Have you considered that we can then analyze who was on any potential mislynch to give us a better idea? I swear, nobody who plays this game understands the idea that sacrifices need to be made for the good of the town.
Unsight - keep up the good work.
SSBF - Wake up and smell the coffee, bud. You need to step it up or be stepped on. It's time to make your choice.
Maemuki - see the question re:FoSes I asked cow above, and answer it for yourself. If either of you post before the other, "what (s)he said" is an acceptable response if you feel it covers your views fully.
Confid: Who are your actual suspects aside from Sandman?
Everyone else: Step it up or be stepped on.-

I'm perfectly willing to try it again, though!Unsight wrote:

@2 - There's something inherently wrong in implying we should lynch someone even if they're town... and it boggles my mind that none of the 5 people who posted after JDodge bothered to mention it before voting ConfidAnon.JDodge wrote:I look at things this way. There are two possibilities.
1. He's scum, there was no accident.
2. It was an accident, which makes himjust as dangerous to the town.
Either way, I'm not inclined to let him live and I'm certainly not inclined to entertain another wagon unless there's some extremely good reasoning behind it.
Vote: SSBF
Willing to entertain the following wagons as well:
cow, Shattered, SAMP
