Mini 181 - 80's Music Mafia: Game Over Already :(

[Talitha]

Either this town is riddled with scum... or... hmm.. I don't know.

vote: mepmuff

[Talitha]

I just liked the way vote: mepmuff sounded... rolls off the keyboard real easy

Alpha, is this your first game? And who are you talking to there?

[Talitha]

Is there something wrong with putting a second vote on someone Jag?, because you just did the same thing.

[Talitha]

So if I made up some reason about his opening post being scummy, that would have been OK?

Besides.. how you you

know

I didn't have a reason and chose not to say?

[Talitha]

Why aren't you going to vote on it?

[Talitha]

Yep, don't be like me and throw a vote out there for "no reason". That can get you in all kinds of trouble

[Talitha]

unvote: mepmuff, vote quagmire

Die scum!
Blatant mistruths. Please quote where I've been aggressive, defensive or uptight.

[Talitha]

Quag is full of it. I'm rather happy with my vote right now.

[Talitha]

I thought it was interesting that Talitha chose to banter with mepmuff after post 25 instead of calling him out on his wishy-washy FOS. That makes me think they may be in cahoots.

I decided to ask for some clarification.. I wasn't confident enough to jump on him yet.

And what? No-one has a comment about Quagmire?

[Talitha]

See this is one thing that really does actually get to me about playing mafia. The emotive comments that are unjustified. People saying I'm uptight, aggressive, .. in some other games it was "high and mighty" or "hypocritical".

And each time, it's been scum saying it. Sometimes I think people take their scum roles too far.

Geez, I hope you people never get to see what I'm like when I'm

really

having a bad day or something.

Anyway. stop it.

[Talitha]

Sorry. I think I am over-reacting to being picked on. Move along. Nothing to see here.

[Talitha]

(Here I go again)
What point have you proved, Quagmire?

BTW, You accused me of being aggressive in post #30. Then quoted my subsequent post

#32

as the example of my aggression.

[Talitha]

I don't buy CB's argument that mafia (quote) "always always always are reluctant to put votes on other players". In my experience it's often town who sit back and don't vote. Because they are clueless and unsure of themselves.

[Talitha]

I'd easily vote for Astronaut if I wasn't so firmly attached to my Quagmire vote.

[Talitha]

Heh.. woohoo! CB has solved the whole game on page 3!

I said why I don't want to vote Astronaut right now... it's because everyone is IGNORING Quagmire.

I will, however, re-read carefully, and try and ascertain if I am just being stubborn about it.

[Talitha]

And there's no need for vig'ing on Night 2, when we most probably have COPS who could prove/disprove CB's theory.

[Talitha]

Let's say I find Player X to be suspicious... (snip) ... b) Player X is not a mafia buddy...(snip)... In case b), I am STILL reluctant to put a vote on Player X, because I know that X is innocent, and helping lynch an innocent player will make me look suspicious.

This just isn't the case in a game with 3 Night 1 kills... If I were scum in this game I'd be rubbing my hands together, knowing that there are some

other

scum out there that I could hunt down.


After re-reading, my 3 wild-ass picks for scum are Astronaut, Quagmire, and Jaguar. I hope I'm not having the wool pulled over my eyes, but mepmuff does not seem scummy to me at all.

unvote: Quagmire

. My solitary vote wont do anything.

vote: Astronaut

[Talitha]

Jaguar: Just my preliminary assessment. It may change

And because you didn't answer my earlier question. But nevermind that now. I have another question.

In your opinion, are the scum most likely to be lurking, or are they more likely to be the ones who "stood out the most so far"?

[Talitha]

I knew I would get accused of that when I did it. But actually, I'm voting Astronaut because I think he's scum.

[Talitha]

And suddenly Quag doesn't (to you)? You can't flip-flop around and not look fishy.

When did I say I wasn't suspicious of Quag anymore? I hate to break it to you but there are multiple scum in this game. Unfortunately I have but only one vote to give.
And I don't care how it looks. My vote will go where I feel it is of best use at the time.

Why do you all of a sudden think that Astro is scum anyway?

Uhh, it wasn't all of a sudden. And to be perfectly honest, I can't remember exactly why at this exact moment. I was hoping to be lazy, but if need be I'll go over the thread again and explain.

[Talitha]

*jaw drops open*

*wonders if Quagmire got the 'Lynch Tally' role*

unvote: Astro, vote: Quag

Either of you will do, really, and you're the one spouting crap.

[Talitha]

I'm pretty sure my assessment was that you are spouting crap.

The machine - why?

[Talitha]

Here is my position on the accusations against me.

I don't quite understand how my early comments and questions could be taken as aggressive or defensive or uptight, because NONE of them were written in that frame of mind. If Quag & machine & whoever else

genuinely

believe that those posts of mine were over-reacting, then I have to respectfully disagree with you. If it would help I could dig up posts of genuine aggression from other games and contrast them with my own posts, just to illustrate my point. This is a serious offer. Just ask.

However! Some of my posts

after

I was accused of being aggressive, uptight and defensive may have been a little uptight or defensive. Put yourself in my position and ask how you would react if you were being accused of something that is, in your opinion, completely untrue. Then imagine you are a tired & stressed mother of 3 kids and ask yourself again.

Yes I over-reacted. But this is only a reason to vote for me if you think that I'm likely to over-react as scum. I believe that I actually come across calmer as scum than I do as town. Feel free to check out my other games if you don't want to take my word for it.

[Talitha]

Yep, and there's 3 juicy looking bandwagons to choose from. No excuse for anyone not voting.

[Talitha]

Alpha: You seem awfully keen to lynch me. I'd expect that a pro-town person would want to lynch the

right

person.... not just anyone. What gives?
And would you please try and be more specific about what makes you feel "bad" about my posts?

The machine: What makes you think there is a vig who killed last night and what makes you think they will kill again tonight? You seem to know a lot about the setup, is that guessing or what?

[Talitha]

Well, because it's not a good idea to claim on day 1? Unless you are in imminent danger of death?

I was actually happy that he chose not to claim, because at the time I didn't find him particularly scummy.

Heh, I'm having one of those

something isn't quite right here but I can't put my finger on what it is

moments. How frustrating.

[Talitha]

Yeah, I see your point Capn... I'm just not sure I wouldn't do something like that myself as a pro-town. Dunno.

With Quag and myself seemingly at a stalemate now, and the game losing momentum, I'm willing to join the mepmuff bandwagon. Might as well see where it goes.

unvote: Quagscum, vote: mepmuff

[Talitha]

I think that's 4 votes out of 5 required to lynch. mepmuff might want to drag that roleclaim back out of wherever he stashed it.

Oh and before I get accused of flip-flopping - There's only 1-2 players in the game right now (apart from myself) that I feel good enough about that I would not vote for them.

[Talitha]

What just happened here?

[Talitha]

He said he thinks that person is clear.

[Talitha]

Alpha - are you claiming to be a

role name

cop????

[Talitha]

I was kicking myself for not getting mepmuff to tell us who the Milli Vanilli was. Of

course

they would be the mafia.

[Talitha]

Oh, and

[Talitha]

I agree - I don't think it was your design Gnome. No-one expects the worst possible scenario to happen.

[Talitha]

*Nominates the_machine for 2006 'Best vig' Scummy* Teehee!

[Talitha]

Next time you go all pitbull on me I'ma give you a good ol' spanking.

[Talitha]

Didn't notice the hint.

Was 100% convinced Alpha was scum after yesterday.

[Talitha]

Hopefully most of us learnt something from this game...

[Talitha]

Well, it

would

go some way towards countering the rogue newbie factor. And in a mini game, it doesn't take much to swing the game in favour of one side or the other, unless you have counter measures.

[Talitha]

He really should use his own account and not yours. Tell him we will protect him from the likes of Phoebus.
