Basically Nikanor is saying Kalofer isn't deciding whether you're guilty or innocent and he's riding the fence. The specific part you didn't understand says Kalofer is adding suspicion to the bandwagon so that more people will vote you and push through the lynch. Is that clear?

soo Nik's saying that by defending me, who Kal (if scum) knows is town, it will seem suspicious to the rest of the town so that I get lynched, at the same time giving Kal town cred for the future.

So Abe, is there anything you'd like to say to or about me now after re-reading the thread?

who bothers to re-read the thread this early into day 1 when there's no point in doing so? Seems like someone fishing for town-points.

Re-reading the thread is something you do after you get more information (ie: after a lynch/nightkill) doing it now is pointless.

@mod
I think its time for a prod or two?? don't remember zombeh's last post.

i was really planning on enjoying this game and role-playing some more as well as putting in some more awesome works of fiction of mine, but you guys have proven to be relatively boring and thus shall not pursue further.

(to whoever asked before, i am a writer already, just a not-so-successful or good a writer)

Anyways,

I'm voting you over 163. (And the fact that you've pretty much only been casting suspicions on others without committing a position to a vote.) What's your reason?

No, I'm saying that he's trying to say, "Look at what he did here, it's bad and suspicious!" to create more of an air of suspicion around you, while at the same time using his unvote to defend you in the case that you are town and he is scum.
Zach wrote:And the fact that you've pretty much only been casting suspicions on others without committing a position to a vote.
That's the tell! Well, almost.
Basically, the tell is that someone who makes more questions than statements is probably scum. It doesn't work so great on page seven, so I was going to wait for a bit, but I'm glad to see we're on the same page, I guess.

My reason for voting for you is because you voted for me over 163, which was obviously a joke vote by me. I guess it's a form of "OMGUS" but really, I'll explain my vote on you as going after an "easy target". I presented something, which was really easy to attack and blatantly scummy to the point where it wasn't scummy (yes WIFOM intended) and you took the bait.

I committed my position to a tvellalott vote and stood by it until now.


As for making more questions that statements, maybe you should do a quick iso of me (I just did one of myself because i didn't buy it):

I started discussion by joking about my /conform
I then provided a vote on zombeh for doing a 100% random vote, defeating the purpose of RVS to some extent, or at least how I see it (if a vote is 100% random it serves no point, even if a vote has a joke reason it can at least help get discussion/scum-hunting started)
I then quasi-defended zach when nikanor made some bogus claim of him fence sitting on page 3 or 4 or something.
I then counter'd nashi who thought I was wary of a quick-lynch/throwing around my vote because of our previous game with 2 quicklynches.. I'm not wary of a quick lynch, I think people should be voting for something, and not feel they have to use caution all the time.

In fact, I just reached by ONE post where i asked people questions, and what do you know, it's only one post where I even interrogate people and ask lots of questions..

Not commiting to a position? I stated my position that I find fakegod to be town. I didn't provide reasoning because it's not something easily put into words so I'm not going to try. He is town though.


That's a terrible case the two of you have on me, apart from my "no lynch" vote which was as much a joke to get discussion about it more than anything.

And as an IC, shouldn't you be explaining to these new players why we aren't going to no lynch today? Bear in mind, it is some of their first mafia games probably.

If you had voted for me with an explanation of why no lynch is bad, I probably wouldn't have voted for you. But all you did was vote for me, and save the reasoning for later, and to me it seems like you were going to try push a bandwagon on me, by not explaining right away. The pro-town thing to do, would have been to explain why no lynch is bad, and voted for me because of that. As it is, 2 posts later, you still haven't stated that a nolynch is a terrible day 1 result. I guess, I'm the one to state it, not going into why right now, but feel free to

I still stand my vote for you DavidParker. You've vote hopped off me because no one else was buying your ploy and now you're trying to build yet another false case. I say you talk too much.
