@Rylai: Why do you think v2v is scum? Looking through the archive, I see a ton of times where you state a case on X, but then keep voting v2v because he's scummier. However, you haven't actually stated why you're voting him. Explain?
I dislike the idea of a randomized selection just because it seems sub-optimal.
Iwas thinking of everyone listing their top town read and then everyone investigates whoever gets the most votes. But I am not sure about this, need to think a bit more on it.
Anyone agree/disagree that the cops should investigate the same person tonight?
Before I go and play Ping-Pong with たかひろ, I just want to say: isn't all cops investigating the same person a severe waste of resources? (We lose less entropy, etc) I'm almost wary of IceGuy/v2v just for supporting it, but I may be overlooking some deeper motivation.
Until Thursday, I won't have time for analysis of anyone in particular. Sorry.
The reasoning behind it is because of the theme it is rather likely that cops of differing sanities will be present. Hence to do away with this issue I believe it's a good idea.

Hurrr.
In other news, BBmolla replaces Mist Beauty effective immediately. Still searching for a replacement for Otto von Clark.
EDIT: Also, ActionDan is being replaced due to not picking up his prod or responding in any way. Rylai and iStark are close to being replaced, as well, and I haven't heard from either of them yet.
2011 scummies winner (BTS help) and participant;
coming back to Mafia...slowly. Keep an eye for me as a mod.
Also keep an eye for setup review requests.
Sorry, I haven't been following mafia that much since the crash and among other things, and I seriously don't want to just throw out a halfassed post. I'll go make a post first thing tomorrow.

That is not at all why I am (was) voting rylai...

1) This is a closed set up. We have no idea what the set up is. Sure, there may be cops because of the theme, but I'm not gonna believe it without a claim or some flips. Same thing with a miller.
2) What if he flips town who doesn't know how to deal with a miller claim? Where do we go from his flip? His ISO is so bare, there's really nothing to go on that. We'd basically be in the same position on D2 because of lack of connections from our lynch target.
3) He claimed miller. He's basically set up for a policy lynch before Lylo. I do not that want day to be D1.
4) I saw someone else do this kind of weird miller claim in another game.
God. Another scummy person. So you don't want to lynch someone who you think is lying about being miller because...
1. He miggghhttt be miller
2. We wouldn't have anything to go on for D2. BS. We have the same amount of info as if anyone else was lynched, looking over what dead people said isnt very productive, its better to look at how people attacked the dead-town and the wagon. Also, people have (or at least should have) suspicions regardless of the flip.
3. You dont want to policy lynch someone d1? You want to policy lynch them later? wtf?
4. There was a miller claim in another game.
This is the main reason I am (was) voting for him. There were a few minor other scummy things though.
But regarding actiondan: his whiteknighting of rylai is ridiculous, and since they know each other I think it is more likely that actiondan is scum and trying to buddy up to rylai than anything else. His chainsaw defense ultimatum doesn't help his case either.
Alright it still seems like we dont have much to work on from anything new since the crash. I have yet to download the files since I was hoping more people would be conversing here but I am wrong, so i will have to get the files and then look to see what I can work with.
