You guys take mafia too seriously. This is a casual game, not life threatening. I was just reading in another forum how someone got lynched becoause of their
GRAMMAR!
. Seriously guys, take a chill pill. Yes, this site is dedicated to mafia, but you people have taken it too far.

Lynching people because of their grammar is an excellent example of not taking the game too seriously. (I would be extremely surprised if it ever happened on
this
forum.)

I once helped speedlynch a guy in face to face 'cause he said pregame that speedlynching was good for the town, but he was the godfather, so it was cool.

No; lynching people for big mistakes means they're making big mistakes to catch, which makes the whole game less funner. Deciphering small mistakes FTW!

Yes, it was on this forum. We were talking about MS and wether a certain person should join.

I could even link this for you.

People on this site play mafia too good to make big mistakes. Small mistakes are the only way to win -- it isn't a matter of funner ;)


~~~


seriously though, are you sure the GRAMMAR lynch wasn't based off of what the mod wrote in the role PMs? Because that seems kosher here if it is done without quoting the actual role pm: like lynching someone for claiming "townsperson" instead of "villager".

Please do, because I find it extremely hard to believe that someone was lynched (even D1) SOLELY for their grammar.

I've gotten lynched for something similar, and it sucked very hard. Wrong game :P, IN THIS GAME,I referred to a lynched mafia tracker as a mafia watcher, being the noob I am. The mod realizes that the tracker was indeed a watcher and proceeds to change it so. I get lynched for the impression that I knew more info even though I really accidentally used tracker and watcher interchangeably. It was too little too late though, and there was no undoing it. I got lynched for a semantic mistake that uncovered a mod mistake that framed me. :(

This is what I am talking about. Stupid little things like this, get us lynched? That is too far.

My situation was just unfortunate for me. I didn't do much to help myself though, as I was already a candidate for scumminess by some. I kept insisting that I made a mistake referring to them as the same, but the others thought I was not being genuine.
Sorry to refer to an ongoing game, but it was a very frustrating one for me. EDIT: Thanks Ether!

Uh, SP, the game you linked to is ongoing and you're not dead.

I'm going to assume that the game referred to at Conquer Club is this one; I might look through it later.

Seriously, though, this sort of thing would imply that 'Scum doesn't take mafia seriously
enough
.

Okay, since you're going to make us work for it, the game is Mini 658. Finished, so we can talk about it. The player in question is
drake_259
.

First of all, the people who are citing his grammar as a reason for lynch include Kairyuu in post 132, RandomGem in post 138;
they were scum in that game!
. And Natirasha
(the
SK
, natch)
is famous for hammering early!
That's nearly half of the wagon... if anything, Town should have paid more attention to Korts etc when they said late-game that the drake-wagon was flimsy.

The bigger problem, though, is that drake wasn't explaining himself well. He tried to correct his post repeatedly, but didn't really clarify or defend himself, and that's really why I think the wagon succeeded. "Grammar" is a proxy for stalling, in this case.

CC is silly.

When Fircoal is like the best player in any given game, you know the site has problems.

Fircoals a decent player, but he would get frogstomped by this sites elite.
