Battle Mage, your explanation is not acceptable. You may have thought that we were not making sense, but what possessed you to fight it? What possible protown motive could you have for telling the Jester that we will profit if they claim Day 1?
Notice: I will be leaving Mafiascum in the near future. As a result, I will be cutting back on games where possible. I'm going to try not to be replaced if I can, but this is an advance notice that my activity WILL decrease.Permanent V/LA.-

A. I was reluctant because I was afraid I missed something before reading everything and yes because 18 pages over one day makes me think that this day will never end.petroleumjelly wrote:wolfcrier, my vote is on you for a few reasons. Here are a few:
1.)You call mith "very scummy" while at the same time tacitly agreeing to his plan by claiming to not be the Jester.
2.)You claim that mith's "logic was off" without referring to the logic of other players who agreed with mith.
3.)The main reason is your Post 273. Earlier you claimed you were "reluctant to vote" (Post 231), yet you seem fine putting theninthvote on Greasy Spot after you had thought mith was "very scummy". You call Greasy Spot both "hypocritical" and "illogical" without explaining how either of those two characterizations apply to Greasy Spot.
4.)You follow up that post with Post 313, still without explaining how hypocritical (much less illogical) applies to Greasy Spot, and additionally wanting us to "get the day over with".
~~~~~
Some questions for you:
A.)Why were you "reluctant" to vote earlier, and now you want the day to be over quickly?
B.)If you believed mith's "logic was off", how would Greasy Spot disagreeing be "illogical"?
C.)Why have you not explained how you believe Greasy Spot to be both hypocritical and illogical? Additionally,howhas Greasy Spot been both hypocritical and illogical?
D.)Has your opinion on the matter changed now that it has been made clear the Jester plan was a trap?
E.)Did you realize your vote was the ninth vote on Greasy Spot?
B. If you are going to use that as evidence.. read all my posts because I I mistook the names because I tried reading all the post at once and the names sorta mixed together.
C. For instance post 94 "The rules don't say anything about the Jestor losing from a nightkill. The rules state he wins if he doesn't get Lynched the first day. That's it. Nothing else.
And any place other than winning is losing." Thats generally not true use some logic.
D. No not particularly considering I have no doubt the GS is NOT the jester.
E. I realized that I was one of many who voted for him/her but I didn't really keep track.
Hope that clears things up

Let's take these past 18 pages and think back thru them.
Why am I being voted so much? Well because I verbally doubted the plan for the Jester to claim his role on Day 1 so the Town could protect him. I honestly believed they were talking crap and like Mafia. I didn't know they had formulated a "plan".
Does that really show that I am scum? Well maybe I am 'scummy' for doing that but that does not make me a member of the Mafia. It does show that I must be ignorant to miss the plan, oh, wait...but I wasn't at Thespival. I didn't know a plan was hatched.
Why weren't you at Thespival? For starters I didn't even know what Thespival was before I came here at I didn't even come here till January 3rd 2008, a little over a month ago.
Does that excuse my behavior? No it doesn't but it also doesn't warrant my lynching at this time, unless you are playing for the Mafia.
Ok, so I hope I have made this clear.I am not the Jester. I am not Mafia
Does this seem like I am trying to save my neck? Yes it does. I do not want to be lynched when so many Mafia are running loose in this Town.-

I agree with BM on the Appeal to Emotion... that last sentence especially rubs me the wrong way. I don't want to be lynchedat all, because I am an innocent and my being lynched hurts the town. I don't understand bringing up how many scum there are -especially when we innocents don't know how many there are- other than as some sort of scare tactic.
GS, my vote on you has nothing to do with your newbieness, or whether you were at Thespival, or anything outside of this game. It is entirely based on your reaction... not even your reaction to the trap itself, but to the follow up interrogation.
Your defense is essentially saying "but I didn'tknowI wasn't supposed to react that way", which is, of course, not the point. The point is that youdidreact that way, and fell into a weak version of the trap. You didn't outright claim Jester, as I was hoping the Mafia would, but you did react in a way that makes me strongly suspect you are scum.
hasdgfas: Let me get this straight. Is it correct that you only get your "random night ability" if you get the town (or some part of it, I don't care about the details just yet) to say [word] AND if you stick to your mostly mute restriction for the day? Is it also correct that you are willing to wait on people saying [word] until tomorrow? (Two yes/no answers, please.)
(I haven't quite finished catching up. If there's a question directed at me I missed, I'll get to it later (or repost it).)-

hasdgfas, since the town won't be saying [word] enough for you to use a random ability tonight, then you have no reason to continue following your restriction. "Wanting" to continue using your restriction is not going to cut it.
Please explain who you mistook to be doing what. I am not clear on this.wolfcrier wrote:B. If you are going to use that as evidence.. read all my posts because I I mistook the names because I tried reading all the post at once and the names sorta mixed together.

Still, there was no reason to drag out your claim of not being Jester. You should have claimed and then decided what you were going to do after there was a claim by a jester. There was no reason to argue the plan one way or another until a jester claimed, usnless, of course, you are the jester.-

Look. You had four choices if you are telling the truth.
Choice A wrote:Powerless, ProblemsChoice B wrote:Powerless nightChoice C wrote:Unknown Problems
I'm asking why you didn't try A or CChoice D wrote:Not Tellingbeforetelling us "powerless night". The order in which are 'revealing' things is appearing more convenient for you than anything else."Logic? I call that flapdoodle."-

witholding information is never in the interest of the town. Has it's starting to look like your gonna have to take one for the team and sacrifice your powers for a day/night. Surely it isn't worth getting lynched over.
This vote is temporary, and will be removed the instant you break your post restriction.

CKD: Please read the rules of Mostly Mute Monk if you have questions about how hasdgfas's claimed restriction is supposed to work. To answer your question, votes do not count towards the two word limit. The same goes for an FoS that is properly bolded.
Hasdgfas, I'm going to be very blunt specifically because I am not inclined to believe you at this point. In addition to the problem I have already pointed out, there are the following problems:
1.)You have claimed you need the "whole town" to say the respective word(s) in order for you to receive your random power. In Mostly Mute Monk, roles like this only neededhalfthe town.
2.)Your posts seem to indicate that if people say the A-word, you get a random power, but for the H-word. I doubt you would needbothwords to be fulfilled to get a single random power, and if you only needed one of them, I do not feel it was necessary for you to use both of those words in your posts to begin with. If you indeed only need the A-word, it does not make much sense for you to have used the [H-word] first.
3.)The fact that you have claimed to get a "random" power is disturbing. If you had gotten asetpower which was specified, your claim would be much more believable. Random powers is essentially the same as claiming an "Inventor", which is not a role I am certain Thesp would include; the effects rely on luck rather than skill.
4.)Onlyifyou have another power (besides that of your "random power" you might gain) can I see how "unknown problems" would really be able to affect you. Thesp can't exactly put another post restriction on you; he can't do more than take away a power you don't have to begin with; he clearly will not modkill you; and to randomly punishotherplayers with something that is your doing does not seem feasible.
So. My question for you: do you have an ability other than the random power you might gain if enough people say the correct trigger word(s)?"Logic? I call that flapdoodle."
