Princess Bride Mafia - Game Over

[Dourgrim]

...and that concludes our broadcast day. Thanks for tuning in, we'll see you tomorrow. [cue national anthem]

ROFL.. smartass.

[mole]

I'm going to put my vote back on mlaker.

vote: mlaker

. All I see coming from him are assertions without anything to back them up. In some posts, like the one my earlier vote was based on, his assertions obviously contradict events as they happened in the thread.

[Werebear]

I'm going to

vote: mlaker

too... and this isn't a guilt vote, it's just a gut feeling vote. And anyone who makes fat jokes about the last statement gets sat upon.

Hey, I'm back! Sorry for the prolonged absence, but I'm back in full force now.

a) Let's stay calm here.
b) I thought we decided that we should ignore the Dragon Phoenix/Leonidas/mlaker business for a bit, because we'll be able to get more information about all of them later, when DP investigates Someone tomorrow. Let's not let frustration make us decide to do something we already decided was inferior. I suggest we all unvote mlaker and find a stronger plan for the time-being. There's good reason to think DP is not fully sane, so voting mlaker becuase of DP's accusation is not an extremely strong play.
c) I think Someone is clearly innocent. I see nothing at all suspicious about DourGrim. I haven't played in a ton of games with DourGrim, but I know he gets frustrated when he's innocent and can't convince other people of this fact. I'm not sure I've ever seen him as mafia. In any case, I'm getting an innocent vibe from him so far.
d) Does anyone have or feel like creating a summary of role claims and information we have? I must admit I've been somewhat delinquent on this front.

Obviously I do not agree with this plan, nor do I intend to follow it. I have made my suspicions abundantly clear in the thread and have spent quite a bit of time expressing those suspicions; I'm not going to just drop them because of any "plan" that might or might not give us information. Besides, I do not see a better lynch at this point anywhere else, so why not go after the person I think is suspicious?

"Clearly innocent" I don't agree with regarding Someone, but I'll let that issue pass for now, especially if our claimed Cop is planning on investigating him tonight. And thanks for the vote of confidence.

[mathcam]

I certainly an mot trying to, nor can I, dissuade you of any gut feelings you have. Maybe my last post shold be read as an appeal to those who don't feel strongly about mlaker but are going along just because we have to kill someone.

My

gut feeling is that we can do better.

Cam

[rite]

Any suggestions?

[Someone]

I think mathcam is quite right. If we figure out DP saneness then we might be able to determine if Mlaker is guilty or not. Right now, we can center our target on somebody else.......Darkblade.

Vote:Someone

Im' more concerned about the vote for the vacationer myself.

Unvote: Someone

Vote:jadesmar

I see Fishbulb's point. Getting peopel to claim they aren't townie? How very helpful to the mafia to know who the protown roles are.

And

A simple coutning error? Hmmm, I dunno if can buy that. Also, sorry about my lack of posts. I'll review the thread and have someone more intellegent to say later.

Oh and I think ROAD is goign to be a SK

His last post was on page nine......if that's not lurking, I don't know what is.

Vote:darkblade

[Werebear]

he hasn't been on mafiascum at all in 5 days... and his last post was complaining about campus internet connections. *shakes head*

[Someone]

Really? Where is that? If that's true...

unvote:darkblade

[mlaker]

O.K. I see my clear suspicion of Dourgrim is not clear to you.I am the Old Booer and my goal in the game was to boo Buttercup which was a role block and I didn't boo at night 1 or night 2 I am a Pro town role and if I booed Buttercup the rest of the game I become a cop and could see the true selves of the people each night.Right now since Buttercup died I just have 1 role block and was going to use it on Dourgrim tonight.Now though I'm not sure who I should use it on.

mlaker

[rite]

Interesting role claim... I think I'll wait to make sure that there isn't another Old Booer to come out of the woodwork before I unvote.

[Werebear]

Someone - if you go to a user's profile, you can see every post made by them, in reverse order. So I went to darkblade's profile, and saw the last post he had made in here in any thread was on the 22nd... and that was the post complaining about campus connections.

[mlaker]

I didn't mean to post the same thing twice can anybody delete one of them?

mlaker

[MeMe]

Double-post deleted.

[Dourgrim]

Wow... almost an entire day without a post. Not a good sign, IMO.

I'm not convinced by mlaker's roleclaim. Matter of fact, I think there are far too many more-suitable characters in the game to make it believable at all. *shrug* Vote stays.

[mathcam]

Hey DP, you're just a regular cop, right? You just "innocent" or "guilty"...no weird clues or anything?

I think mlaker's Old Booer claim is fairly believable. I guess I'll thrown my vote on

Vote: darkblade

to motivate him to either post, or if he is unable, to be replaced.

Slow discussion means time to impose a deadline --

10 PM EST Monday, September 1

.

At deadline, the player with the most votes (at least five) will be paid a visit by the Brute Squad. If no one has five votes, the day will end without a death. If there is a tie, the player who reached the required number of votes first will be eliminated. Of course, if anyone reaches nine votes before deadline, day ends as usual.

Now let's hear some chatter!

[mlaker]

I apparently am not getting my point across about Dourgrim so

Unvote Dourgrim FOS Dourgrim

also any ideas who I should block tonight or not block at all tonight?

mlaker

[Werebear]

The problem with role blockers is one can never be sure the one you say you're blocking IS being blocked by you, they COULD be your partner swearing you blocked them. Anyone have any ideas how we could prove this?

[Sugar]

I am the Old Booer and my goal in the game was to boo Buttercup which was a role block and I didn't boo at night 1 or night 2

You said your goal in the game was to find Buttercup by targeting/"booing" her. Why didn't you "boo" anyone night 1?

[mathcam]

Wait, yeah, now I'm confused. Your goal was to role block Buttercup? Did she even have an ability? And if you blocked her, then you became a cop? The old booer becomes a cop?

The more I think about it, the more it's totally unbelievable...except for that "true selves" line...the question is, did MeMe think of it, or did mlaker?

Werebear, we could semi-prove a blocker by randomly picking someone who volunteered the information that they have a night ability and would know if they were blocked. The randomness gives us a high probability of not allowing the collaboration you suggested earlier. Of course, there are many flaws with this plan...the mafia could decide to kill whoever we choose so we don't gain information, for one.

[mlaker]

I didn't boo anyone night 1 because I wanted to get an idea of the players so I could maybe have a better chance of blocking night 2.But now that Buttercup is dead I just have a role-block to use.

[Darkblade]

Really sorry, but with college classes starting and being without a computer ( I have to use comp. labs now), I have decided to cut down on my number of games. Since I have been most inactive in this one, I've decided to request a replacement to make the game more exciting and not be bogged down by lurkers like me.
