Open 26 - Vengeful Mafia (Abandoned) before 462

[Sir Tornado]

Vote IH

[Sir Tornado]

IH

I thought I read in some signatures (well, in actually a lot of signature ) that "IH is always Scum"

[Sir Tornado]

EBWOP-Also, as traditional, I am the cop, discuss

I don't think there are any cops in this set up.

Lynch all liars?

[Sir Tornado]

You have to vote for him, not just say his name in bold.

Vote: cmc

For being the last to post in-thread. A clear scum-tell.

FOS xyzzy

for not paying enough attention to the game

I have clearly voted IH in post 4. And, my vote for IH was the

first

vote for IH in this game. I put IH in bold in post 9 because that post was directed at him.

And, I was not trying to put him on a -1, because, surely, you have only 1 vote, right?

[Sir Tornado]

Ok... let us get things moving:

I have never been in a game with so few people, so I agree with Per. How are we to get the discussion moving? IH, what would be your strategy to find the scum? (or, even to start discussions?)

[Sir Tornado]

Ok, let us flush out the lurker

Unvote

Vote cmckinney

[Sir Tornado]

Why are you scum? Oh you're scum all right....

I'll have to reread and see who your partner is.

I don't quite understand this. Why do you think He is the scum?

CMC/Xyzzy are scum.

Most definitely.

Xyzzy must be the GF.

(Also, someone must recognize what I'm doing, especially when my first post came)

I don't get this either.

[Sir Tornado]

Per, IH isn't lurking. His sig says he'll be away till 29th.

[Sir Tornado]

Edit: Also, it's one slip-up. One slip-up, with no explanation afterwards (because cmckinney hasn't posted ever since). That does NOT warrant a lynch, though I do think that he is scum. There is always a chance that I'm wrong, and if I hammer wrongly, he would almost certainly vig me which would lose us the game.

I don't mean you have to be 100% sure before hammering, but there is too little to go on so far.

I think this is worth taking seriously.

CMC?

[Sir Tornado]

I am waiting for CMC to clarify his post (which xyzzy has quoted)

This is getting nowhere, really. You can't have a game with just 3 players around and the rest lurking...

[Sir Tornado]

EBWOP: Which

Per

had quoted.

[Sir Tornado]

Questions for people:

Per: Why did you find my predecessor scum?

IH: You don't get a question, cuz you ain't special =D Mainly waiting on your re-read thoughts.

Sir T: Who do you actually suspect right now?

xyzzy: Er... dunno. Comments?

I am pretty sure someone else is in the game, but I can't remember. I feel so dumb! = ( Enlighten me, other person, with your presence!

Also, pre-emptive

FoS: xyzzy, Sir Tornado

they are scum

obvobv

(I actually will explain why later, after I get the answers to the questions. Kthx.)

Hi Aimee!

I suspected cmckinney for this:

awwwwwww, come on, i just haven't been able to get on recently.

Im new to this whole vengeful setup, but how are we supposed to fig them if we are all just townies?

I take it that fig = typo for vig, because "f" is just above "v". It was clearly explained in role PMs how were are supposed to do that. Well, if he'd received a townie role PM, then he shouldn't be asking this.

And, IH was acting (I thought) a bit strange, but then, I haven't played with IH before this, so I can't rule out that being his usual play (and almost everything acts strange on the first couple of pages).

Apart from that, nothing. It's too early for any concrete suspicions.

And I will

Unvote Aimee

[Sir Tornado]

Aimee: I am still waiting to hear your reasons for your preemptive FOSes.

[Sir Tornado]

Hello? Is anyone still reading this?

Aimee please respond!

[Sir Tornado]

Sir Tornado, whilst you are a very nice person, your post definitely emphasised my thoughts on you. I asked you who you thought was suspicious. You promptly described how my predecessor was suspicious, but then unvoted me. I was wanting your thoughts on current players. The very fact you didn't do this emphasised the way I considered you to be incredibly non-committal.

Ok.

About Per.

Are you both purposefully stalling the game or just stupid? I think it's quite clear that IH was joking. Just like he was when he did his cop claim ("first post", remember?).

Why is it a bad idea in a small game in particular, or why is it a worse idea in a game of 5 than in a game of 12?

As long as you remember you're joking, I don't see a problem. Seeing as IH is an experienced player, I don't think he will lose control. I bet my money on it that he was joking.

That said, joking

can

stall the game. And it certainly is doing so here. IH comes on, makes some jokes, goes away. No contributions. Lurking in plain sight.

Unvote, vote: IH.

For the record: I still think cmckinney is scummier, but I don't really feel like hammering him on P2.

Per, IH isn't lurking. His sig says he'll be away till 29th.

I know what his sig says, I can read. I wasn't talking about these last couple of days, because that's not lurking, and it's not in plain sight.

When he was only being silly and not contributing anything, no matter how small, that's what I call lurking in plain sight.

None of them sound scummy on an individual basis. However, when taken together (they are his 4 consecutive posts) they don't make much sense.

First, he answers a question for IH. Then, he questions about joking being bad. Then, he says that joking isn't bad, although it stalls the game. He then votes for IH due to his "lurking in plain sight". He repeats that in the later post.

However, if he felt IH was lurking in plain sight, why post post 44, in which he sort of answered my and xyzzy's post about IH by saying IH was joking?

This is probably nothing at all. However, I can't find anything remotely scummy in any other current player's play.

[Sir Tornado]

Per, check the word [quote=http://dictionary.reference.com/search? ... ncommittal]noncommittal[/url]...

I believe uncommittal means exactly the same thing.

[Sir Tornado]

EBWOP:

Per, check the word noncommittal...

I believe uncommittal means exactly the same thing.

[Sir Tornado]

No, not inconsistent.

It's more like sitting on the fence. (In fact, it

is

sitting on the fence)

[Sir Tornado]

BTW, what is exactly the case for me being the GF?

[Sir Tornado]

This is really getting us nowhere.

BTW, what is exactly the case for me being the GF?

Well?

[Sir Tornado]

Yellowbounder is absent in another of my games he is modding too (Mafia 66). So, I think he is away.

[Sir Tornado]

Ok... this game seems to be all but in the process of being abandoned. I suggest a simple way out: lynch me, I'll vig someone I feel is scum, and you all can go on from there.

And, I am totally serious.

[Sir Tornado]

Vote: Abandoned

The mod seems to be away... should we wait for him to formally declare it abandoned or will our unanimous decision suffice?

[Sir Tornado]

Ok... I was a townie.
