BTW, I forgot I promised to do this in another game whenever I quote BM.

Post signing argument sounds distancy and blows signal-noise ratio to hell.

Agreed, I've been trying to provide some real signal. Other then Primate, no one seems to have any input on any scum hunting discussion.

Celebloki · Post Post #103 (ISO) » Thu Mar 27, 2008 9:42 am

I am unsure as to what to think right now. I feel that maybe primate has some info that we don't, but I don't know if this crusade against Superfly is just him acting on grudge or something. At the moment my vote stays until I see Superfly defend himself.

Well duh, if you guys start trying to have input you just distract the rest of players from lynching who I tell them to.

I urge caution to anyone whom Primate's arrogance is attempting to goad into making a mistake in anger and frustration. Then again, I am the only one who seems to notice his casual arrogance. Sure, he may know something, and he may be right about Superfly, but man is his attitude off-putting and quite frankly offensive to me (purely in a mafia-centric way, nothing personal

)

Surye · Post Post #106 (ISO) » Thu Mar 27, 2008 9:52 am

Not to mention NOT wanting input and information and discussion is such anti-town behavior I'm amazing no one else seems to care.

GhostWriter · Post Post #107 (ISO) » Thu Mar 27, 2008 9:55 am

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.

Just some things I noticed after the post surge yesterday:

Kaleidoscope/Mod, Post 1 wrote:The existence of the Corsican and Sicilian mafia have been confirmed by the police department.

I feel that this may be an indication that we have two Mafias. Did Corsica and Sicily each have their own mafia?

Kaleidoscope/Mod, Post1 wrote:The police department is requesting the town that if there were any witnesses, they should notify this at the police department.

This demonstrates how someone could put the "???????" option to good use. If you were a witness to these crimes, you could alert the police department.

GhostWriter, Post 33 wrote:Well now... what an eventful start! With all the history being thrown around, I'm glad no one knows me!

Why do you need to be unknown? The only people who should not want themselves to be lynched are mafia and powerroles. Townies should be the biggest "risk-takers" in what they say, as if they get lynched, the only detriment is one less person to the town's aide.

Maybe a null tell, but

Why does your vote need to be safe? Why is it safe on DrippingGoofball? Also, I'm sensing a small bit of OMGUS.

That post of mine was nothing more than me commenting on how the random votes in the random voting stage, and the remarks on the two people killed were mainly induced (or appeared to me as such) by history between players. Thus, because I had no vote on me at that present time, I made a joking comment about how no one knows me, which isn't true, because I've played/am playing with at least 5 people in this game that are still alive elsewhere on the site. But look at it as you please.

This is true. Mainly, first night kills have to be based on histories. The mafia want to get out the most experienced players so that the town is less resourceful.

This has the unfortunate metagame effects of thinking "Who knows these two well enough to think they are a threat, and have expressed this is the past". But I'm pretty new here, so I have no such thoughts.

There are two groups.

Well not much defend but say something for himself at least. If Primate startred to crusade merely out of personal grudges, and Primate won't give any reason for it then maybe Superfly can enlighten us there. Also if it takes him longer to say anything then hes just lurking or not being around and that means we just have someone not participating. I pretty much just want some kind of response out of him.

Celebloki · Post Post #119 (ISO) » Thu Mar 27, 2008 11:03 am

and hoping that a few votes on him puts some pressure to say something as well.

Singing Librarian · Post Post #120 (ISO) » Thu Mar 27, 2008 12:40 pm

I don't get the Superfly thing, but I certainly hope he/she/it logs on soon and posts something, which would help a lot.

Other than that, very little signal seems to have got through. Really, who cares whether someone signs their posts?

Cyberbob · Post Post #122 (ISO) » Thu Mar 27, 2008 5:14 pm

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...

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.

muffinhead · Post Post #124 (ISO) » Thu Mar 27, 2008 6:24 pm

Remeber that we have 3 weeks, so we can lynch as much as possible, the more lynching done the less lynches the mafia get. So based on that i believe we should bumrush as much as possible but only if we have an idea someone is scum and if they arnt it wont be a big loss.
