Realistic Mafia - Game Over

[Cyberbob]

oh hi guise

Vote: ABR

[Cyberbob]

cause he told me to lol

Kindly point out where he told you to vote for him.

Also, failed attempt at humour is failed.

[Cyberbob]

Signing posts outside of one's normal sig is one of my forum pet hates.

[Cyberbob]

But the thing is, posts are automatically signed by the forum. The point of signing letters is that you know who it's from, and with forums, we have the usernames above the avatar. You just look pretentious and like you don't get it.

You sure you read my post right?

[Cyberbob]

@Cyber, I was agreeing with you.

Ah. Your "But the thing is" line threw me a bit.

[Cyberbob]

I'm ambivalent towards Superfly's wagon. I won't hop on without something more than "trust me guise", but with all the possible nightactions everyone has access to it's very possible that Primate isn't bullshitting.

These two comments from GhostWriter, however...

Well now... what an eventful start! With all the history being thrown around, I'm glad no one knows me!

Oh, I have several scenario's in mind in which he could assume that Superfly is mafia. In fact, I could run down all possible reasons.

Even with his defence of it in mind, the first still reads to me like someone glad to be a relative stranger. The second is just plain unhelpful.

Silly quote tags. Oh well.

[Cyberbob]

Right now Superfly is doing himself

no

favours whatsoever. He fully deserves the votes he has and probably more.

Given that his last post on the forums was on Friday (before this thread even started), I find this somewhat spurious (if you're referring to the fact that he hasn't posted in his "defence" yet).

[Cyberbob]

I don't like the way Surye is playing, but that's a gut reaction. He seems overly... smooth? I dunno.

Regarding the Superfly wagon - I don't see anything to comment on or any reason to vote for him until one of these things happen: he posts elsewhere on the site without posting here (which would be at least some indicator that he is deliberately not answering) or

does

respond to Primate and is shown to be scummy.

I don't like Dasquian's insistence that more votes will exert some form of psychic influence on him to login and post. If he doesn't know the bandwagon exists, what possible urgency will furthering it cause?

FOS: Dasquian

And I'm not commenting on anything until Superfly shows up, sorry.

Understandable... but only if he turns out to have something solid with which to accuse Superfly with.

[Cyberbob]

Could you explain why you think Surye deserves a confirmed vote in a bit more detail?

[Cyberbob]

So Superfly's bandwagon was a joke? I guess I can let that one slide; it did bring us out of the random stage very nicely and got some good discussion going.

I'm seeing Surye's blatant reaching, and I'm not liking it. I think he's trying to find a reason to maintain the already-existing-but-looking-likely-to-die bandwagon and push for a (relative to starting a new wagon) quick lynch. Looking through his posts, I'm not seeing any real attempt to scumhunt (before Superfly showed up); his contribution to the game consisted primarily of pushing for information from Primate.

While I did appreciate his not blindly joining the wagon, given the above I'm more inclined to read this as scum avoiding a town wagon.

Unvote, Vote: Surye

Cyberbob: don't put words into my mouth, I'm not intending to get an earlier appearance out of Superfly by encouraging more votes on him. I am, however, hoping to get more pressure on him when he does turn up and I am also hoping to avoid another lynch-shy game like Lost Boys was.

Sorry, I misinterpreted what you were saying. I read your motives for talking people onto the wagon as trying to bring Superfly to the table earlier.

[Cyberbob]

Hmm.. well I certainly seemed to make a mistake here, but honestly you are all misunderstanding my first opinion which I have tried to make clear was NOT pro-Superfly AT ALL, but anti-Primate.

Your stance on the wagon was not scummy by itself (in my mind), but when the entirety of your play is taken into consideration... it starts looking more and more like fishing and/or distancing.

My understanding of a lurker must be skewed, since he posted to this site on Thursday, clearly not AFK, but still ignored the proceedings of this game. I didn't not want to join the wagon too early as I was hoping to get more information out of Primate, but since that lead dried up, I thought the next best course of action was to go after someone I honestly thought constituted a lurker.

Except as Panzerjager said - he and Sensfan have both been every bit as inactive as Superfly. Why the tunnel vision?

Also - why did the decision to make inactivity an issue come only after the initial driving force behind the wagon had gone?

And while this is not 100% my first platform from the beginning of the game, can I not take weight of what others are saying and change my opinion in light of other ideas?

You can, but a

complete reversal

is extremely scummy.

[Cyberbob]

Great, I go to bed and wake up with a 5 page wagon on me.

Unvote

.

I'm finding it difficult to comprehend why I'm the one with the bandwagon as opposed to one of those with the guns - are these people not bigger potential threats to the town?

I... honestly don't know how to defend myself here. It seems as though people are hellbent on my lynch even if it's just to find out the reliability of the cop information - how does one counter that?

[Cyberbob]

Christ, ever heard of a little thing called RL? I had to answer the phone. Settle down.

I don't know where this "aggressive nature" information came from - I'm vanilla. Last night I tried to make friends with BM, but he was out so I went home.

[Cyberbob]

1) As Natirasha said there were none last game

How in any way does that prevent them from being in this one?

2) The flavor in the first post said there was corruption

before

in the cops, but then the new mayor was elected, and hired a new force of undercover cops. To me, this implied that the new undercover cops were not part of the corruption.

I think it's a little facetious to be putting so much faith in the flavour.

[Cyberbob]

First being the lynch alignment reveal.

Fantastic. My previous comment about being hellbent is proven.

Unfortunately, Bob, there is a way to find out if there are any. I say unfortunately, because it involves your death.

Thanks for that, I had no idea.

Will someone please tell me again why I'm being targeted over those who have the guns? People are acting as if they're practically confirmed town, when surely they're far more likely to be scum than I.

[Cyberbob]

2) It seems to me like the idea that there even are corrupt cops itself came from people interpreting the flavor.

See Surye's last post. It did not come from the flavour alone.

[Cyberbob]

BM claimed vig

Yes, and I like how nobody that voted for ABR voted for him after Surye corrected himself.

[Cyberbob]

well that's just opinion which is baseless

He read it in his role PM.

[Cyberbob]

Also, Cyberbob: put yourself in our shoes. You've got a cop-dirty on you, and you are giving us nothing to explain that away. If it's your word against the cop's, sorry, I'm going with the cop for now.

Right then. I can't say I blame you, but I don't have anything else to offer.

[Cyberbob]

Huh? Where did this come from?

[Cyberbob]

Oh, I see.

[Cyberbob]

Christ. This game is officially insane. What on Earth happened to scumhunting? Did it just pack up and leave while I was asleep?

Sure, go ahead and search my house. I'd be crazy to put up a fight even if I was scum.

[Cyberbob]

Scummy? How is it scummy for me to be trying to get people back into scumhunting rather than having an endless discussion of what actions to be taking tonight?

Not that I think a good plan isn't a bad idea - I don't - it's just that I think scumhunting should take priority. Figure out who's going to come to my house and get on with it.

[Cyberbob]

I'm just not convinced at all with CB's reactions. We still should search his house, but

Confirm Vote: CyberBob

/facepalm

[Cyberbob]

Your scumdar is hopelessly out of tune - I'm trying to

help

the town. Take off those blinders.

[Cyberbob]

Kindly point out which of your posts I repeated.

[Cyberbob]

Given that you said that

, I'd hardly call my own efforts "parroting".
