@Fujiko: Thanks for doing exactly what I said no one would do... That is, asking him to at least claim before hammering him. I hope he was scum, because otherwise, that was a terrible move.

His chances of flipping town are minimal. And even if he does, his chances of flipping PR are even greatly reduced. And if he does, then he should probably stop playing mafia.

He asked to replace out, so Zoidberg couldn't have claimed. What, did you want to wait a few days for a replacement, wait a few more days to recollect ground, and then have to rush to find a lynch?

Also, I almost laughed when Majiffy put that picture up considering he self-voted himself earlier for not wanting to play a game with Zoidberg.

If he flips town, then yes, I would have preferred that. If he flips scum, then this is fine. We're still not at deadline, so it wouldn't have been such a big sacrifice, I think.

OK. This is LYLO (lynch or lose.)

If you vote, and you are a townie, and you are wrong, the two remaining mafia will quickhammer, and the town will lose.

So please do not do that.

Now, replies:

Klick: thank you. I appreciate it.

Majiffy: yeah, I know. It was deliberate.

Mitillos: Bo answered it fairly well....

Not to mention that he would have claimed vanilla townie in all likelihood. Given how talkative he was, we would have known before this point if he had a power role.

@Fujiko: But it turns out that he actually was VT. Would it have really hurt us that much to wait a bit longer? Anyway, it's over now, Zoidberg was lynched and that's that. As for the LYLO thing, we
have to
vote. We can't go with a no-lynch. We lost that luxury, because if we do, tonight the mafia will kill someone and end the game.

However, there is something else we can do. Mass-claim. We haven't got many options left, if we mislynch or don't lynch, we die. What do you think?

I should have been clearer - don't vote without discussion. I wanted to get that post out quickly. No lynch is not okay.

I think a mass claim is a very good idea.

I agree with this whole post, and I'll start. I'm VT.

I'm under the impression that mass claims here are usually done "popcorn style". If I'm understanding it right, that means the person to claim picks the next person to claim, and so on. So DBK, you should pick someone to claim next.

Actually, I've never done anything like that before, but it seems more fair than anything else. The fact Fujiko said claiming was a very good idea and decided not to claim was odd. Fujiko, claim.

It was, but in my first game, I claimed a bit too early and got lynched for it.

I am a VT.

Mitillos, claim.

So, I'm pretty confident Ghosty is town, which doesn't leave too many options.

Newbie 1252 - I was a cop. I claimed at the beginning of day 3, because I had innocents on two people and thought I had figured out who the one remaining scum was. I had, but he counterclaimed and I got lynched.

I'm not confident anyone (except me) is town at this point - I'd like to see if the claims turn up something interesting.

Actually, popcorn is supposed to start with a consensus, where we all agree who is the scummiest and start from there. Then, whoever claims names the next person to claim, unless people ask for discussion on a specific claim.

Anyway, I'm VT. Klick, claim.

Except that volunteers, if they are town, help scum by giving them more info. If we manage to get mafia to claim first, they have no idea what everyone else will claim. It's moot now though.
