Harry Potter Mafia - Over!

[Nobody Special]

Vote: IH

for having the shortest name.

[Nobody Special]

Bleh. I don't like the books. I just think they're good material for a bastard game.

Has knowledge no one else does? Check.

Has creepy avatar? Check.

Doesn't belong in this game? Check.

unvote

Vote: MMM

[Nobody Special]

Is

no one

going to address that MMM said this is a bastard game and the Mod hasn't said anything to that effect?





Also, am I overthinking this?

overthinking. But if that is why you are voting him based on some bastard mod viewpoint doesnt' that lead to more his role and seeing what he got? how does that = scum?

Scum always get more info than town. Therefore, I extrapolated. And arrived at my conclusion.

[Nobody Special]

Mod, I voted SensFan, you forgot to note it!

HEY GAIZ KITTEN HAS NO VOTE

[Nobody Special]

::: hands farside a shiny new humor meter :::

[Nobody Special]

MMM, do you have a posting restriction?

[Nobody Special]

::: hands farside a shiny new humor meter :::

They have those?!

(...with apologies to Sudo_Nym. And everyone else, really. I'll stop now.)

[Nobody Special]

*hands YOU a shiny new humor meter*

Touché.

Now with Real Game Content:

My vote on MMM was more or less random. Although I honestly can't quite put my finger on why someone who is so vocally opposed to HP is playing a mafia game based on HP. Perhaps just a total hardcore mafia addict. But still, there are other games out there, so it makes me wonder.

Moving on:

I get farside's points about not wagon-jumping and about staying under the radar. These are points to be noted for later Technical Analysis.

I think IH is being opportunistic.

More discussion, please. I was happy with the activity level in the beginning. Let's not fall asleep here, people.

[Nobody Special]

I think IH is being opportunistic.

I wanted a reaction, I got it. I'm happy.

Also,

unvote

Also also,

Am I

still

honestly coming off as scummy? Damn, I

so

need to work on that.

[Nobody Special]

Sorry for making your head hurt, farside. So, you're just in total limbo on May 31?

@IH: You. You've served your purpose for the moment.

[Nobody Special]

Ugh I forgot there was 31 days. But yeah I'm out on the 31st in transit from place to home actually. limbo sounds right.
What was the purpose for your comment on IH?

I was looking for a reaction. Again, I got my reaction. It's not that big of a deal.

NS, how has IH 'served his purpose'?

He gave me a reaction.

[Nobody Special]

Ok, here we go.

------------------

Nobody Special, you say MMM has knowledge nobody else does in the post where you vote him. What knowledge is that? You random voted IH earlier. Was your MMM vote a serious vote?

------------------

Oh, I see what Nobody Special was looking at. I don't agree with it, but I can see where he is coming from. Not scummy on his part at all.

Since you answered this yourself, I assume you don't need further input from me.

I wanted a reaction, I got it. I'm happy.

Also,

unvote

Also also,

Am I still honestly coming off as scummy? Damn, I so need to work on that.

-What reaction did you get?
-Why are you happy with the reaction?
-Why unvote?
-Why so worried about looking scummy?

I got a rather low-key, non-reaction from IH. I would think that bad-scum would freak just a little at that accusation; therefore the reaction serves (in my mind) to push IH a little towards town.

I'm neither happy nor unhappy with the reaction itself; I'm just happy that I got one. (I detest being ignored.)

My MMM vote was during the RVS; I felt it was time to move beyond that and unvote. So I did.

Not really "worried" about looking scummy. My main problem is, that with my 'style' of play, I usually get lynched earlier than I like. Ergo, if I could come across as a little bit more town (but not too much!) I might live longer, and therefore increase my enjoyment from this fine, if slow-loading, site.

[Nobody Special]

PEOPLE.

LEARN TO EDIT QUOTES.

[Nobody Special]

- Read all seven pages
- Just waiting on something before I post

I see this happening lot lately.

Many replacements.

I'll respond when there's something to respond to.

@Espeo: Me, too.

[Nobody Special]

I am here. Life got crazybusy yesterday; I will be caught up by this evening. (Also, I had no idea you weren't allowed to make two posts in a row with the exact same text. Hmmm.)

[Nobody Special]

-I would like to know what knowledge NS thought MMM had that nobody else had (post 22). Care to elucidate?

He seemed to think it's a bastard game. I've pretty much dropped this point; I think it's null.

-Sudo's 45 seems to be an attempt to buddy with NS. Whether it's town buddying to (?) or scum buddying to town, I don't know.

I don't see that as buddying (but then I usually don't see buddying).

-NS 138: your reply to kmd is not acceptable. i still want an explanation as I think i said earlier in this post.

What? I typed

four paragraphs

-- what, specifically, is wrong with the answer?

also funny/strange is that your last paragraph also applies to me and my playstyle.

Stop buddying me.

Also, ITT RC admits to having a tiny wand.

-IH, a whopping 3 posts, seemed to skip the RVS entirely. i have a good-ish feeling, regardless of post count.

Obvbuddying is obv. Stop it.

-Nobody Special, 14 posts, 40% content. never did share with the class what he gained from his own reactionary 'gambits'...

Bite me. I've explained this... three times now? No, reading myself in iso, FIVE TIMES. Get. Over. It.

-ReaperCharlie, 18 posts, 70% rvs fluff. yummy, but not very filling. much like cotton candy. painted a target on his back with kmd omgus.

You obviously missed the memo that says it's bad form to comment on yourself.

Unless there are multiple factions (which I'm disinclined to believe, in a game this size),

I think that 16 players is enough on the borderline that there

could

be two factions; I don't think dismissing "more than one faction" out of hand is a good idea. Yet.

@MLock: if you were indeed miller, why would you mention your claim more than once? Even asking people to comment on it?

Obvious scum is obvious.

^Exactly

@Esp: you beat me to what I was leading up to. :/

And you both beat me.

Also, in some seetups, Millers do not know they are Millers (primarily[?] Open Games) -- so I'm

never

hardly ever impressed with a Miller claim.

[Nobody Special]

You said in 138:

I got a rather low-key, non-reaction from IH. I would think that bad-scum would freak just a little at that accusation; therefore the reaction serves (in my mind) to push IH a little towards town.

I'm neither happy nor unhappy with the reaction itself; I'm just happy that I got one. (I detest being ignored.)

Why would scum freak about being called opportunistic?

I don't know *why* scum would freak at being accused of... well, anything, but I've seen it happen.

What kind of reaction were you looking for? An omgus vote? Good scum players not only DON'T react to vote pressure, they find ways to use that to their advantage. Do you think IH could possibly be doing that? He HAS been around MS since 2006, don't forget. We've only been around a few months.

I was looking for a reaction. Not a chocolate reaction, not a vanilla reaction, not a sabre-toothed freaking

tiger

reaction. I'll say this slowly: I. Was. Looking. For. A. Reaction. I. Got. One. (I also don't pay a whole lot of attention to join dates.)

And though I agree with you that he seems slightly town, how is that equal in your book to buddying with him? 0_o

I think you're conflating IH and Sudo. If not, I have no idea what this even means.

@ Sudo buddying with you: that smells of subliminal early-game buddying. It's fairly common for experienced players (as scum) to do that to newbtown, in my experience. It's easily deniable if you're called out on it, but the result is undeniable in that the newbie feels appreciated. It was worth noting.

Your mind is a fascinating place.

P.S. I did

not

admit to having a tiny wand. In fact, quite the opposite. You're foolin' yourself, mate.

Reap, that is a massive

erection

misrep of what I said. I said that you weren't adding anything to the game at first, then once you attempted to appear to be posting content, it was pretty much lame one-liners, non-opinions, or stating the obvious. Not really content. Just trying to look good.

thanks, but its just a pattern on the pants. i'm gonna go take them back... to the ... pants... store...

I rest my case.

[Nobody Special]

I need to read Sudo in iso. Which will be difficult, given the thing and the thing. But I will read late tonight or early tomorrow.

[Nobody Special]

Hi, dram.

I've had honestly no time to read anything, and besides, we JUST got iso back.

When's the deadline?

[Nobody Special]

My post vanished.

Well, to sum up: I'd be happy lynching dram.

[Nobody Special]

@NS: Come on man, show more conviction! Where's your vote?

I'm being lazy and waiting for a votecount. I don't want to unintentionally hammer.

[Nobody Special]

With a sudden BURST OF ENERGY, Nobody Special actually

reads the thread

and determines that Dram is, indeed, not at L-1.

Vote: dramonic

[Nobody Special]

Harry's Patronus is never named in the books. God, how did I miss that?? (I don't think any of the Patronusses [Patronii?] are named.)

Well, dram, today, Espe tomorrow.

[Nobody Special]

1) dram (where my vote still is)

2) Espeo

[Nobody Special]

Votecount?

Somehow I thought we had reached a lynch on dram.

(still being lazy)

[Nobody Special]

Oh NS,

you

never got above, like, 3 or 4 votes on me.
It's 6 to lynch ^_^;

Thank you for confirming yourself as scum.

[Nobody Special]

"You" as in You=town. Separating the groups. Scum admission if I ever saw one. Mark my words.

[Nobody Special]

I got a rather low-key, non-reaction from IH. I would think that bad-scum would freak just a little at that accusation; therefore the reaction serves (in my mind) to push IH a little towards town.

I'm neither happy nor unhappy with the reaction itself; I'm just happy that I got one. (I detest being ignored.)

I don't get this.

What's to get? It was early D1, RVS, I wanted a reaction, I got one. Seriously. What's not to get?

And that YOU = the town = I am scum = wooosh.

Defending your scumpal?

[Nobody Special]

I'm ALWAYS suspicious of SpyreX.

Always.

[Nobody Special]

oh yeah i forgot to say, nobody special is fine for a lynch too.

i think i am getting townie vibes from some players but i am not sure...

The hell?

I thought what we had was ....

special.

[Nobody Special]

I like you, too.

[Nobody Special]

I prefer dram. Espe can be tomorrow.

[Nobody Special]

Votecount, please.

[Nobody Special]

I HAVE FLIPPED A COIN

RC SHALL VOTE FOR DRAM

NOW

plskthx

[Nobody Special]

P.S. FG are you OoTP then? Let's make an alliance.

ehmmm what's OoTP?

Order of The Phoenix

[Nobody Special]

Votecount, please.

@Mod: Votecount, please.

[Nobody Special]

Love you too, sweetheart.

unvote

Vote: Espeonage

I give up. You people. Ugh.

[Nobody Special]

I refuse to even dignify that with a response.


Oh wait....

[Nobody Special]

See sig.

[Nobody Special]

I have a proclamation:



THIS DAY WILL NEVER END.

[Nobody Special]

Tentacle rape is love.

[Nobody Special]

No one knows.

[Nobody Special]

Is there, by chance, a current DEADLINE?

[Nobody Special]

A request:

Everyone who sees this, and who is not voting Espeonage:

Please tell me why. Short sentences, small words, please.

Thank you.

[Nobody Special]

How, exactly, did I force you to vote?

[Nobody Special]

Hi, I just got prodded. How did you guys post four pages without me?

Thoughts in a few hours. Lunch first.

[Nobody Special]

Hi, see sig. Will catch up ASAP. (Need to start with page 43.)

[Nobody Special]

My wincon does not include any reference to the Ministry. But please allow me to claim prior to my lynch, plskthx.

I would salivate over a KMD lynch today.

Since we only have two mislynches left, I'm not the target you seek.

Vote: KMD

[Nobody Special]

unvote

Vote: FakeGod

Claim, please.

[Nobody Special]

Not at this time.

Is there something you'd like, specifically?

[Nobody Special]

How, exactly, is my voting for scum, scummy?

Small words, please. I don't get it.

[Nobody Special]

You. There's something WRONG with you Andrius.

Thank you. I seriously needed a good laugh.

Also, I'm Very Town.

[Nobody Special]

My wincon does not include any reference to the Ministry. But please allow me to claim prior to my lynch, plskthx.

I would salivate over a KMD lynch today.

Since we only have two mislynches left, I'm not the target you seek.

1. Why request specifically to claim before you are lynched? Not much in the way of votes on you at the point. Also, when has this Town group not allowed players to claim when they approached lynch?
2. Why would you salivate over a KMD lynch?
3. How do you know we have two mislynches left? MacLock’s theoretical numbers were presented as a worst case scenario.
4. “I’m not the target you seek” is oh so convincing [/off sarcasm]

1) Just being prepared.
2) Because he is scum and needs to be lynched.
3) I took the figure from MLs post. I'm not all that good at MafiaMath (sorry).
4) Dude. Harsh.

Also, I'm Very Town.

Why thanks, I was confused until you cleared it up for me

Dude, why so

harsh?

I’m going to re-read FakeGod and Nobody Special with clean eyes.

I highly doubt I would be on the wagon of my scumpal this late in the wagon. And FG is clearly scum.

[Nobody Special]

Ok, I promise to claim if two simple requests I have are met:

1. I'm back at L-4. (three people please unvote me)

2. Everyone needs to say this, and only this in their next post:

I hate Voldemort!

I do not, nor will I ever, negotiate with terrorists.

[Nobody Special]

Overcompensate much?

[Nobody Special]

To play along with FG and his "theory" -- I can say Voldemort.

I can

Voldemort

in bold.
I can say

Voldemort

in italics.
I can even say

Voldemort

in bolded italics.

I fail to see where this is getting us.

[Nobody Special]

Well, now that I see it's not triggering a wincon for FG, I can say

I hate Voldemort.

[Nobody Special]

I'm not feeling farside/manho as scum. FG, Kmd, and raj are all better lynches.

QFT.

[Nobody Special]

Andrius, it's fun watching you explode.

Just sayin.

[Nobody Special]

Andy, you have not

seen

yelling yet.

[Nobody Special]

a/s/l NS

You cannot be serious. Also, you haven't read the right threads. Anyone who's

anyone

on these forums already knows all that (and much, much, more).

[Nobody Special]

OMG.

[Nobody Special]

We probably should stop hijacking this game thread. All the cool

kids

adults are here.

[Nobody Special]

Ok this sucks. Who's online? Let's just lynch manho, he's not coming.

I'm ready.

[Nobody Special]

raj, there's a link to set mafSepia in RC's sig. USE IT.

[Nobody Special]

Also, your sig is annoying. I am disinclined to fix your first-post issue because of it.

[/offtopic]

[Nobody Special]

That's what I am thinking too, but I am still more suspicious of manho. Bulletproof is an easy claim because you don't have to prove anything, but from all the flips

so far it looks like nobody's a VT.

So that could just be his 'yes! if I claim bulletproof, I don't have to prove I did anything!' fake claim. idk.

I am interested to see the other claims, there will be at least two (maybe more?) fake claims in this whole bunch. I think we will be able to pick them out from among the others.

Do you mean "no one here is a VT" or do you mean "NS is a VT"?

I WILL TRAIN YOU PEOPLE TO BE CLEAR IF IT'S THAT LAST THING I DO

[Nobody Special]

If RC says so.

[Nobody Special]

Aye.

[Nobody Special]

I am Stan Shunpike, the pimply teen-aged driver of the Knight Bus.

Vanilla Town.

[Nobody Special]

Magna, being a civil person, I can't really say what I'm thinking right now.

However, whatever the flavor, I have to stand by my Role PM. I don't see a rule forbidding quoting of the Role PMs; I've PMed the Mod asking if I may do so.

I am Stan Shunpike, I am VT.

If I am lynched, and WHEN I FLIP AS I HAVE CLAIMED, lynch Magna. He is a lying scumbastard.

Can I ask that no one hammers me until I get an answer about quoting my Role PM?

[Nobody Special]

RC, do you trust me?

[Nobody Special]

I just want to say that I have more or less followed you this whole, entire game; I have no reason to lie about this (Hello, WIFOM!) but anyway.

Magna is lying. That's all I can really say, unless and until I can post my Role PM.

I'm VT.

Vote: Magna

I'm going to go do some Magnascumhunting.

[Nobody Special]

Okay, after a quick iso of jmj3000 (who Magna replaced) shows a lot of lurking and one (barely) content post. This is not the town!jmj that I know.

Go.

Read it yourself.

You know you want to.

Now, to iso Magna.

[Nobody Special]

I want to reiterate: WHEN I FLIP VT, AS STAN SHUNPIKE, THE KNIGHT BUS DRIVER:

Lynch Magna.

Perhaps you wanna look closely at RC, too, since he's now giving this bullshit about investigating jmj and jmj coming up innocent.

I'm feeling VERY alone right now.

[Nobody Special]

I also would like to point out that Magna and jmj

combined

have a total of 36 posts. Out of a total of 1554.

2.3% of the total.

Lurking scum at its finest.

[Nobody Special]

Espe, I thought you couldn't vote?

I'm still VT.

I'm pondering posting my Role PM anyway. I see no explicit rule against it.

[Nobody Special]

Nice try, Espe.

I'm still VT.

I'll say it AGAIN:

When I flip VT, lynch Magna. HE IS LYING SCUM.

[Nobody Special]

One more time:

Magna is LYING SCUM. LYNCH HIM.

TRUST ME ON THIS ONE.

NO -- DON'T trust me; consider, after I flip Stan Shunpike, WHY he would be claiming a role

that already exists.

I think the answer will be crystal-clear.

[Nobody Special]

I DO NOT EITHER.

[Nobody Special]

If there is lurker scum around it’s you NS – just of the active variety.

You can drop the charade, scum. You'll hang tomorrow. Can't you see that?

GOOD MORNING TOWN:

Just me, your resident VANILLA TOWN ZOMBIE. reminding you to LYNCH MAGNA TOMORROW.

Avenge me.

[Nobody Special]

Because I'm not scum,

scum. YOU ARE.

[Nobody Special]

It is, how you say, to laugh.

[Nobody Special]

I must go outside now, before I smash my computer.

[Nobody Special]

I must go outside now, before I smash my computer.

Perhaps working more dilligently Days 1 to 3 establishing Town cred would make my gambit at the end fail

Yes; lesson learned (we can hope).

Forgot to add I have no objections to having the Death Eater QT released.

Nah, they could have it if we lost, but if we win I never release my Mafia QT's. Especially a perfect victory. Sry

Wait -- you sound serious about this.

[Nobody Special]

Wait -- you sound serious about this.

Sadly he is. Reaper is under the incorrect impression that his Mafia QT is blush full of secret tactics that he doesn’t want getting out. He’s wrong but I can’t exactly do anything about it.

There oughta be a law.

[Nobody Special]

Calm yourself.

[Nobody Special]

And I totally had you penned out as scum. Read the Mason QT.

Post it, that is, if it's cool w/MPR.

I find it difficult to justify anyone posting anything from a QT,

especially

at your request.

[Nobody Special]

Then the last day was just NS messing up his claim. The Role PM did say conductor(unless he got sent a wrong one), but he claimed driver. What I find really strange is how people just believed Magna claiming

Bus Driver

as Stan Shunpike after pointing out how NS said he was the driver of the Knight Bus. It seemed to me like he was claiming exactly what he was attacking.

Yes; after checking, it does say "conductor" and not "driver." And, because I'm an idiot, it never occurred to me that a "bus driver" could be a Bus Driver. Therefore, I totally shot myself in the foot.

[Nobody Special]

No, it's my fault.

[Nobody Special]

But... I thought you were retiring?

[Nobody Special]

We're going to need a bigger....

something

for RC's ego. It's still growing.

Left unchecked, it could take over the free world any day now.
