MissTerry, this stage is called RVSfor, random voting stage. Players make up reasons for votes. It serves to get the game going when we have nothing to base votes on.

Did you ever play with an inactive IC? And was that IC town-aligned?
Yes, Drixx was inactive town IC in my last game (1711).

So is the purpose of this post to say trust me I'm smart, or something else?

Loopdan, do you have experience with Mafia outside this forum? You don't like a newbie to me at all.

Because of this: "I would vote the IC, but I am afraid that'll make him be inactive, so I'll refrain from voting the IC and vote this ScumFace.". No need for such a deep explanation for the second post of the game. If he wants to vote Thor, he needs to just vote him. It's a RVS.

Also, #24 is very strange for this part of the game, but, anyway...

@loopdan
Thanks, I skimmed through a finished game before playing this game and figured out what RVS was from that, thank you for the explanation :)

@Hark
At this point the people you listed are all suspects, I chose you out of the people I'm suspecting at the moment only because you had posted the most. Still a random vote, still getting a feel for this.

I'm not getting any particular reads yet, I can't tell if some people are acting scummy or are simply playing the game.

Reading and rereading.

This is my first game on MS, I was hunting around for places to play some mafia and I really like here so far, much nicer community it seems like and better regulated than some of the others. Plus the wiki is awesome. Tried out epicmafia become this and didn't like it at all.

I'm giving you the opportunity to point me to a specific game. This is way more easy for you than it is for me.

I have played some mafia casually with family and friends. This is my second game of forum mafia. My first game was pretty interesting, and I learned a ton as it went along. I was tracker and survived to the end for a town win.

I suspect that I am older than most other players on MS, but I assure you I am a second-game newb.

That's exactly the reason behind #24. I feel like Creature is trying to distance himself from Thor, while masking it behind the RVS vote for Blank.

UNVOTE:
VOTE: Thor665

I think that quote alot of time has passed, and Thor's lack of presence is starting to make me feel uncomfortable. This vote is to encourage him to do his IC stuff when he comes. (If you are busy because of RL - sorry)

He is online right now, probably posting here now. It's not such inactive, but, okay.

The point I was trying to make is that maybe, Creature wanted to go after the IC, but was afraid to vote. That would be strange for a SE, but I could see it. I don't think that is the reason that he didn't vote Thor now, after engaging with him, though.
