Open 348 - JK9 Game over (Who won?)

[-L-]

Question 1: If I were in that position, of course I would claim. It would be anti-town to do otherwise, especially of I were a power role. Is this a real question? I thought it was a basic concept of mafia.

Question 2: I have played... A few.

My question to the group: why do you play mafia? What do you get out of it? What is your favorite role thus far?

Me, I love mafia for the intrigue and mystery. My favorite role is townie, because I can say or do anything without worry because I am virtually invincible. I play like a bulldog prosecutor - following leads until they dry up.

[duckhunter4242]

@AS completed 1 on another site, died in my Newbie game here, and am currently in 2 here

[duckhunter4242]

@[L] I play mafia because its a challenge, I would have to say I like being someone with a night ability because it adds another aspect to the game, whether it be a Town Vigilante or scum it just means I don't have to do nothing until the day stage hits again.

Man this game hasn't really gotten going yet.

[JonWJ007]

Man this game hasn't really gotten going yet.

Contribute questions, thoughts, and opinions to get the game going, not by just grumbling the game is not going anywhere yet.

Hmm L-2 at RVS is kind of suspicious, and also nobody's unvoted...I think that's dangerous.

As to the RQS, I would not claim unless someone expressed that they wanted to hammer (maybe I'd claim earlier if I was a PR, but a lot of bandwagons die near/at L-1 and I probably wouldn't want to expose myself if it wasn't necessary).

Question 2: How many games have you played before?
I've played 1 complete on MS, am in the middle of another on MS, have finished 2 on another site, and am in one on that site.

2 completed Newb games, 2 ongoing, and some experience playing at EM.

Man this game hasn't really gotten going yet.

I have a fantastic Idea...you get it started with a 5 question survey with thought provoking questions that will help the town win.

[smallpeoples343]

Hey guys. I haven't had access for 2 days. Re-read thread and questions below.

I came up with a few questions to help people figure out when this game will be most active and find out a little more about each other:
1. A/s/l- No clue what this means...
2. Time zone- US eastern
3. Any favorite hobbies- Reading webcomics, such as XKCD and Questionable Content
4. Occupation- Student
5. One random fact about yourself- I have no life.

;Phone Posting;
To be more exact ; Singapore.
So when it's night here, morning there. Vice versa.
But I will post as often as I can

Maybe each of us present a RQS?

Would you claim when you are on L-1/L-2? Why & why not?

I would resort to claiming when I find it tough to talk out of the situation. :/
I'm bad at explaining self sometimes

Maybe at L-1. You're about to be hammered.

Hmm L-2 at RVS is kind of suspicious, and also nobody's unvoted...I think that's dangerous.

For Question 2: I don't even know...

No, it's not. And I find the fearmongering that it is to be scummy. Voting analysis is a key component to finding scum. Let's try a new wagon.

I approve of this wagon. UNVOTE: VOTE: Apple_Singer

[Mattman]

Kondi is a scummy wagoner. Discuss

[kondi2424]

I disagree. This is the first time I've voted someone with any votes on them, and I don't see how that is viewed as scummy. Enlighten me? And if it was scummy, why was there no vote to accompany it?

[Mattman]

You offer no reasoning, only that you approve of a wagon and then L-2'd him. I didn't vote because I said to "discuss" it first.

[kondi2424]

It's a pressure vote, which now has no pressure since it's been revealed as such. And as we just argued about, an L-2 isn't really scummy.

Mattman just did the same thing Apple_Singer did. Discuss.

I still say L-2 is kind of scummy, which led to my

L-1

bandwagon (nice votecounting there ). L-1 is very scummy, especially with no reasoning. Not that I have too much to go on, but for now

I really don't find L-1 scummy at all. Can you explain why it is? And Mattman is the one that said it was L-2, I just followed him on that.

L-1 is super scummy because your scum partner can just pop up and hammer...or some dumb ass townie could do the same thing.

Vote Kondi

[kondi2424]

The retarded person who comes in and hammers obviously gets lynched the next day. If they're scum, we get scum. If they're town, we get rid of a player who is bringing down the game. Also, it's unlikely anyone will quickhammer D1, because a scum trade-off 1-for-1 is better for town than scum.

Now try again. Why is L-1 scummy?

So you consider yourself a spectator?

You guys missed my question to the group. I find it to be very useful.

My question to the group: why do you play mafia? What do you get out of it? What is your favorite role thus far?

I approve of this wagon. UNVOTE: VOTE: Apple_Singer

@kondi: What were your reasons for voting AS? Coming out saying it was a pressure vote as an explanation to Mattman's challenge was very weak, considering your vote was the second one. Second vote holds no weight, and applies no pressure, especially after you let the air out of the balloon by saying that was what it was. You just flew up 50pts.

It's a pressure vote, which now has no pressure since it's been revealed as such. And as we just argued about, an L-2 isn't really scummy.

Mattman just did the same thing Apple_Singer did. Discuss.

Mattman pointed out a the same thing that crossed my mind. You joined a wagon with no explanation.
AS pointed out the fact that 3 people voted one person during RVS and that it was dangerous.

How are these two the same? Discussed.

to all - do you even know what L-1 is? Why would you ask that if it was scummy?

At this stage of the game, if a person reaches L-1 [one vote away from lynch, aka Lynch minus 1] - it is very scummy, and evaluation of who is on the wagon is necessary. It is also necessary for the person to claim, because if a dolt signs on and hammers, we will be at a loss for information. @kondi - this is why it is scummy.

But no on was at L-1, so why is this being discussed?

Kondi - I find your votes very opportunistic. Why

[
I really don't find L-1 scummy at all. Can you explain why it is? And Mattman is the one that said it was L-2,

I just followed him on that.

Here I find you guilty of the same thing as Mattman earlier, with his snide comment about the game not proceeding - which is a lackadaisical attitude toward the game. Why do you feel it is ok to just follow another person's reasoning blindly? Without even re-reading to see the veracity of his statements? And even defending yourself against [L-2, L-1] without checking to see if the votes were even at that stage.

This argument between Mattman and kondi seems to be a farce.

@smallpeoples343: Do the random facts have anything to do with your vote? I'm not good at abstract puzzles and would appreciate any insight...
@duckhunter: Why so hoppy?

[smallpeoples343]

No they don't. I was just saying that I just realized that there were there.

[duckhunter4242]

@ L and smallpeoples are we not still in RVS? plus this game has gotten off to a slow start and my questions sparked no kind of interesting results so I thought I would try to use my vote to get reads on people.
