Newbie #492 - GAME OVER

[Silverwalker]

Well, this will be a fun couple of days. What is the record time for a single day? I see this game started last Saturday.

[Xaivius]

I find your attack leaves a bitter taste in my mouth

as you are top of my scumdar

i feel i should step it up
vote Xaivius

ladies and gentlemen, I give you a sterling example of OMGUS voting. I point out that he's exhibiting suspicious behavior, and BAM!

Oh
My
God
You
Suck

take into account, that this is the same person who chided me for voting rather than FOSing...

I've seen several of the big games go for a few months on day one. Nasty stuff...

Xaivius, your top of my scamdar, by voting for me, your asking to be voted for!

i would like to hear Silverwalker 2 and 3 please

[Shanba]

Vote Count of I need to do something here to feel like I'm not slacking:

Variable (3) -- somestrangeflea, Zombie_Woof, SilverWalker
Xaivius (1) -- appleof88


Not Voting (3) -- Xaivius, Dead Rikimaru

With 7 alive, it takes 4 to lynch.

Hi guys

[Variable]

Xaivius, your top of my scamdar, by voting for me, your asking to be voted for!

Vote: appleof88

How can you tell a happy motorcyclist?

By the bugs in his teeth.

you sir, need to reread the thread. False accusations, proven to the masses.

QED

Xaivius

[appleof72]

oh right, yeah, you said that it was OMGUS and i just asumed, moment of madness...

[somestrangeflea]

I think that apple is acting scummy.

From the recent exchange, I think that if apple is scum, Xaivius isn't. There's something strangely sincere about X's posts...

[Silverwalker]

Xaivius, that reasoning is flawed. First, that my vote would not be on firm ground; in fact, I am getting more and more convinced of Variable's scumminess, especially because of his attempts to pin blame on just anyone.

Second, my predecessor; he posted twice I believe, and then deadbeat. I suppose that because he posted he would "make you sorry he was in the game" or something like that, you think that means he must be Mafia; however, this is obviously a guy who thought he would be going to rule the lynch. When he realized the game is more complicated than he thought it would be, and his scary macho attitude wasn't going to carry the day, he went to flame a chatroom or something, whatever his type does when noone is blocking the IP address.

I'm tempted to lower you on my suspect list, just because no mafia could be this... crude.

you can't vote for your predecessor....so we need a real 2nd and 3rd

[Silverwalker]

I was counting points why Xaivius's reasoning was flawed. "First point" and "second point".

Variable keeps pinning blame on me, though with a more subtle touch this time. Suave! It has nothing to do with OMGUS, of course.

C'mon, give me a break. Your second post was about how scummy you thought I was, based on no evidence. You immediately went on the defensive when I called you on it, and now you're making judgments about the type of person that you replaced.

As for subtlety, I came right out and said that you were on top of my suspect list.

OMGUS only counts when you get voted on. I haven't voted for you -- yet.

[Silverwalker]

My evidence is that I read through the entire thread.

If "defensive" means explaining myself, then yes!

[Variable]

Okay, I have spent half an hour reading posts now. You guys write A LOT! And it's only the first day!

I have to vote for Variable

, because some people gave good reasons for voting for him, and I have been told that if you don't lynch someone the first day you don't get anywhere, and meanwhile the Mafia get a chance to kill someone. But also because Variable's jokes are funny, so we would miss him. And that is just what he wants! Sneaky.

I am really sorry

if you are innocent

, Variable! Nothing personal. But if you are Mafia I'm off to a good start.

Vote: Variable

Yeah, no evidence or explanation here. Try again.

By the way, I hope you realize how it will look if I get lynched based on posts like these -- especially after I turn up town.

a good way to expalin yourself in mafia
is to use quote of other post, gives your point my backing and gives a chance for other other people to explain themselves

[Silverwalker]

Yeah, no evidence or explanation here. Try again.

By the way, I hope you realize how it will look if I get lynched based on posts like these -- especially after I turn up town.

Well, right now I won't read through posts for an hour to find good quotes for you. And your way of posting is a little bit too aggressive for my taste. ("Yeah" and "Try again.") Keep it on game level. But I will say that your going on the offense in so many posts, to me at least as a new player, is suspicious behavior. Besides you won't turn up townie, is my guess, so that's a moot point.

[Silverwalker]

Okay Variable, I wrote a little list after all:

1. This looks like you are thinking, "If I joke about this, I definitely can't be scum":

You got us, man, we're both scum.

2. Sarcasm, lots of it, sort of to intimidate people to look elsewhere

3. Adding jokes to several posts, after you got suspicions on you

4. Threatening at least two people with this kind of reasoning: "When I am lynched you'll be the next, for voting for me."


...Also, you have tried to pin suspicions on at least four people now, and it's only the first day. That's wild. All in all a bit of overdrive, like you are on a mission.

Okay, I could be wrong, I am only an amateur in this game. Maybe that is just your style. But I am thinking of Shakespeare's line "She doth protest too much," so my vote stays. Sorry, man!

1. I could see that being valid. It's wrong (in this case), but valid.

2. Sarcasm, lots of it, because a) I'm a sarcastic guy, and b)

I'm attracting attention for making jokes.

3. See 2b. When you realize how ridiculous these accusations are, then you'll realize why I kept making jokes. Besides, you'd spin me

not

making any more jokes the exact way, as in "oh, yeah, he caught on to what was tipping us off."

4. Go back and check. (I'll wait.) I only said things along those lines because the people that made those posts gave me a scummy impression, and because, once again, there was (and is) no valid reason to vote for me. As I've repeatedly said, I'm attracting attention for making jokes, not for anything scummy.

Four people, huh? Let's see...

Golgi: Random.

somestrangeflea: making up scum tells, then major backpedaling when I call him on it.

appleof88: NO FUN ALLOWD IN MAFIA!!11

Xaivius: HES SCUM I JUST KNOW IT

FoS =/= attack, by the way.


If you're town (I seriously doubt it), look at my position for a second. I make a joke about the mafia outing themselves, then immediately am attacked by just about everyone in the town. Fine, I understand, not everyone was graced with a sense of humor. Then the votes start piling on me, again because I made a stupid joke about mafia. What am I supposed to do, sit here and take it? Anyone that finds me suspicious for making a joke, I'm going to find them suspicious. You don't like? Find a valid reason to vote for me, or start targeting someone else. I'm getting really tired of explaining myself over and over again. It's making lurking seem real attractive at the moment.

By the way, "thou doth protest too much" is the same principle as "too townie." Look it up.

One more thing: you're basing your vote on me on guesses. I'm guessing you're mafia; should I be switching my vote to you?

[Variable]

Unvote.

[Zombie_Woof]

Hi guys

Hi.

Unvote

FoS: Variable

Hi guys

Hi.

Unvote

FoS: Variable
FoS: Silverwalker

FoMS: somestrangeflea

No comments/posts since the 25th, but then an array of FoSes?

Okay.

I do appreciate the unvote, though.

[Zombie_Woof]

Okay.

I do appreciate the unvote, though.

So my FoSes should be based on

my

posts/comments? Because I'm trying to base them on the posts/comments of the other players here, and I just got caught up on the game by reading the posts/comments of the other players. Therefore, even though I have not been on to post my own comments, I have now become slightly less certain of things because of what has been posted by the rest of the players here. If you don't mind, explain to me what about that is out of place, because I cant see a rational way to base my FoSes and Votes on the number or frequency of my own posts/comments.
I'm just trying to feel my way through this. Variable, the way I'm starting to see it, is if you are Town, and I'm willing to concede that it's possible that you are, then somestrangeflea and Silverwalker are probably both Mafia, and with my help they almost had you. But, if you are scum, which I also have to accept as a possibility, neither of them is likely to be scum, as we almost had you lynched, and surely any scum who had been voting for you to throw off suspicion would have Unvoted when you were in such danger of being Lynched.
So now that I think that, I think my FoSes should go like this:
FOS: Variable
FoMS: somestrangeflea
FoMS: Silverwalker

The number and frequency of your posts was completely separate from your lack of explanation for your suspicions; my apologies for not making that clearer.
