[rajrhcpfreak]

flow of her responses along with her interaction with others.

well thats why i am voting her.

[Macros]

dgb is a her? hyoly shit, news to me

[rajrhcpfreak]

yah there is a gender icon under avatars...

[mathcam]

For some reason, I feel like we're in the middle of the movie

Clue/

. There's going to be a lot of running around between the kitchen and the attic.

I'd like to hear something stronger against DGB, and/or a response from her.

Cam

[DrippingGoofball]

I didn't edit anyone's post. Look elsewhere.

One plus two plus two plus one...

[Talitha]

I believe the first person Talitha votes today is scum.

As a result, I am waiting for Talitha to vote.

vote: mathcam

BTW, who got the job of randomising the roles and sending the role PMs? Oh bah... Emp sent the PMs. You'd think he'd be able to trust one of us with that job seeing as we're SO mature.

[Talitha]

And whoever murdered zu_Faul and/or desecrated his death post, that behaviour is not in keeping with the theme of the game. Please desist from such actions.

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

vote Mathcam

Talitha has spoken.

Now let it be done!

unvote, vote: Talitha

[Axelrod]

One thing that is nice about playing here, even with the inconsistent pace, is that you don't have to wade through 200+ posts of spam before people actually start getting serious.

but i didn't think that enough for me to jump another bandwagon.

but i see the hunch.

I call BS. What, praytell, do you think you see?

[mathcam]

I second that question.

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

Cam, what do you think of the fact that Talitha has found you guilty scum scum.

[Macros]

I shall third it and third it well

[rajrhcpfreak]

post one:

Vote: Coron

One post and lurking already!

attempt at humor, is there is no helpful content here.


post two:

He said either "I'm out of the game" or "I have been eliminated from the game." "My alignment is townsperson," "My role is vanilla." So yeah, someone edited that.

helpful because he confirmed what we all were talking about. someone changed the first post.
but no analysis of current voting trends.
so my gut tells me that hes avoiding any real content but give us something to see so it looks like hes helping.

post three:

Also, the player's list has been edited, going from listing zu_Faul as "townsperson" in Blue, to just "Deceased."

same as above.



thats when i said i agree with Glork's hunch. but i thought my previous hunch was stronger.

fourth post is focusing solely on me who kinda supported a second vote for him. tunnel vision and avoiding other conversations.

ok thats my train of thought since it was questioned.

[logicticus]

vote:DGB

for editing other people's posts.

was this a joke post by you, or do you really think dgb was editing peoples posts?

[Adel]

vote:DGB

for editing other people's posts.

was this a joke post by you, or do you really think dgb was editing peoples posts?

I think she is more likely than average to have done it.

EDIT: this is a test edit to see what happens if I edit my post before another person posts.

SECOND EDIT: apparently nothing.

[Adel]

this is a post that I will edit once another persojn posts to see if the forum software will note that I edited the post.

Edit: this is a test to see what happens.

[Axelrod]

Wow, Raj. I think that is possibly the worst "analysis" I have ever seen. The game is under 35 posts old, and you are criticizing for a 1st post vote, being "helpful" but failing to analyze "voting trends," for not providing "real content," using "tunnel vision" and "avoiding other conversations." Absolutely the most horrid, slanted, 1-sided, hack job based on nothing I've ever read.

Apparently I've displayed a veritable cornacopia of scumminess and uselessness. My goodness, if that was how you really felt, why on earth wouldn't you be voting me until I was dead. What could DGB have done that was worse than this?

Could it even be an overreaction to several people asking you to explain what you meant? You had to come up with something, but you didn't have anything to say, so you decided to throw in everything but the kitchen sink and hope that at least some part of it would sound believable?

Now I have to decide if this is scummy on your part or just completely idiotic. I'm leaning scummy. And since I don't have a better place to put my vote at the moment:

Unvote;

Vote: rajrhcpfreak

@Adel: I'm curious. Are you under the impression that because players have been given editing powers in this game, that it's okay to edit your posts at will? That strikes me as a very, very bad thing.

[Adel]

ok, I edited my post 43 and it noted that I edited it. That should mean that zu_faul did not edit his own post.

@Adel: I'm curious. Are you under the impression that because players have been given editing powers in this game, that it's okay to edit your posts at will? That strikes me as a very, very bad thing.

I am editing my posts in a very transparent and mature manner. I'll let you know if I get a warning from the moderator to stop it, and all of you will know if I get modkilled for doing it.


By mature mafia, does that mean that we are effectivly playing a mod-less game where we have to come together like adults and agree upon what rules we will follow? Can we realisiticly expect the scum to agree in good faith?

Or is there a hidden set of rules, and one player (presumably scum) is allowed to edit posts? That would be an important thing to know.

Coron sauid something about posting a votecount later, which led me to suspect that we are alone here without a moderator. If this is the case then the basic parameters of this game are the functions of the forum software and whatever we agree to.

[Axelrod]

The game won't work without some level of Moderation, or at least, it won't play fairly.

Frankly, I'm rather well put off by the edit was was done to zu_Faul's death post, because (1) it does not appear that he was the one who edited it (no "last edited by..." line) and (2) it was a

major

change from what was there before. It went from saying he was a vanilla townsperson to "I'm dead" with nothing about alignment or role.

I will continue to assume he was a vanilla townsperson, but if future deaths and reveals can be edited like this then it just makes the game exponentially harder, not even considering the possibility that someone might

lie

in a death post, or have their post edited to say something not truthful.

[Adel]

vote: explicit set of rules in the first post

[Adel]

Rules:
You all know how this works.

perhaps we can write the rules ourselves?

We all have moderated games beofre, we do know how this works.

Adel, I feel like you are trying to lead us astray. Even if we took valuable time and posts to write out the rules, whos there to enforce them? The mod is an omnipotent being in the thread who has more knowledge and is thus able to enforce everything, we all have limited knowledge and nobody could enforce any ruleset that we made.
