New York 131: Tricycle Mafia (Day 5)

[DeityKabuto]

• KOC and Subzero are likely to be town.
  I think Jmurph is town.
  Ever so slightly leaning town on Wraith.
  nhammen and Mr.Zepher look like town.
  I'm unsure about Thor- I'll see after a couple of more posts.
  VERY unsure about Amor
  Pine looks slightly scummy
  Toon fighter seems like mafia - quite interested in his next post

Everybody else is null due to not having enough content to judge them by apart from:

Unvote

VOTE: Silverbullet

Looks to be active lurking.

Question, if you suspected Toon to be a Mafia, then why vote Silverbullet for active lurking. Are you saying that a lurker will little to no evidence is more Mafia than someone who you just said was Mafia? But if you think that, then start questioning Silverbullet, if he's active, he should answer.

[DeityKabuto]

Hm... If you suspect him then start a case on him.

Who do you currently suspect and why?

I am still building up my suspects list. Right now, I am currently wondering about ToonFighter's case, it was a bit scummy when he placed a vote on someone who voted him and said that they were "bs" reasons. But Townies usually get really upset/frustrated when somebody has voted them, but I really think that he should have kept his cool. Also, I am not liking Knight of Cydonia's style of play, is he being serious or what?

[Thor665]

I personally pray he's just reaction fishing, but if this is his level of play it's not anymore inherently scummy than other players I consider to play sub-optimally.

What Silverbullet looks to me, is mafia that is not sure where to turn in this game so he ends up saying nothing while trying to look like he scumhunting.
Active lurking is not quite the same as lurking.
Lurking in most cases is a null tell, as the person does'nt have enough time/interest in the game to post a lot.
But with active lurking the player does have enough time and interest but is still saying hardly nothing which is more a scumtell as the player is usually avoiding commiting himself with opinons to keep his options open. Which I think is happening here.

So yes. Silverbullet seems more like mafia to me than Toon fighter.

-Max

Looks to be active lurking.

yes... cause i haven't been asking questions... nor answering questions posted to me...

-Thor

So you had 2 options to make a wagon a 3 and one to make it a 4 and you decided what was most needed was no opinion or force on those wagons and instead you'd needle at SubZero.
Why?

I was going Strictly by the votecount posted at the time (I'm LAZY!) I liked (or found suspicious) how Sub emphasized that his vote was "important" so to speak

Also - learn to read vote counts

"Im a super leet reader and keep a count of votes at all times! The mod votecounts aren't good enough for me cause i'm leetz and the modz r noobz!"

Ninja-d

avoiding commiting himself with opinons

So I didn't find sub suspicous nor did I state this anywhere? Really now? Show me how I have no opinion of anything..

I see where you're getting at. He hasn't posted at all, though. Perhaps, he should be subbed? In-actives aren't a help to the game, and lurkers can/should only lurk to a certain extent before being prodded.

[Toon Fighter]

I have no clue what just happened. I'll have to reread this entire thread all at once, I guess. And I prob won't post till Monday morning.

I have no idea what just happened either, I'm going to bandwagon like crazy now.

Unvote: Maxous
Vote: Toon Fighter

If I get voted for bandwaggoning in RVS, this guy should too.

FoS: Thor

[silverbullet999]

I see where you're getting at.

He hasn't posted at all, though.

duhhhh wha!? Hello! Hi! Hello! Can you Hear Me!?

[Knight of Cydonia]

I'm loving the whole "accuse someone of inactivity in the post below theirs" thing. Real cute. Feel free to keep that up, since it's all your "case" is.

[MrZepher]

Obvious thread reader is obvious....

[mastin2]

Hi, all.

Guess who's waiting to get their PM to start playing?

[SubzeroSith]

If I get voted for bandwaggoning in RVS, this guy should too.

You really have no idea why we voted you, do you? Or are you just twisting things to suit your purpose?

[Pine]

Mastin, are you stalking me?

If so, please continue

[quadz08]

In case you can't tell, mastin will be replacing saporovirus. OP will reflect that change soon.

[Thor665]

If this is the Calcifer Mastin I will attempt my best to get you beaten about the head and shoulders with a dead carp if you keep trying to write any number of cases north of five.
Also, sheep me once you catch up. I'd promise to make you a town read if you do this, but apparently all I'm doing is coaching you because you're terrible scum and/or I'm absolutely insane and will hold you as a solid townread forevermore and I can't do that.

@Toon - You're being run up for failing at bandwagoning. I'm Charlie Sheen over here. That's the difference. Also, an FOS on a scum point you apparently disagree with? Yeah, way to look townie. (aw, crud, am I coaching again?)

[MrZepher]

Here I was thinking I'd get to play a game without a player posting mass amounts of walls ._.

[mastin2]

Vote: SubSith

. How can you be only half a Sith?

[silverbullet999]

Hi, all.

Guess who's waiting to get their PM to start playing?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

ok ok... this is fine.. anyone that mastin says is town... is scum... yes yes... yes... that's it...

[SubzeroSith]

Hi Mastin!! *waves* Now we REALLY need Singer to be playing in this game so that it can be a Newbie 1048 reunion.

And way to redact our name. My guess is that will be the only time you edit down your contributions in the game? (And Thor, this is the Calcifer Mastin...so I guess, get them fish ready?)

sub would you mind signing your posts as to which one it is? Not that you HAVE to but just thought i'd ask if you wouldn't mind.

*has nightmares of there will be blood*

LOL. I'll try to remember (this is DY, as Mastin and nhammen would deduce from my above comments), but I'm pretty dumb and am apt to forget, so if you want to know which head wrote a particular post, ask. The more high quality the post is, the more likely it is that ICE wrote it.

KOC

and Subzero are likely to be town.
I think Jmurph is town.

Ever so slightly leaning town on Wraith.

nhammen and Mr.Zepher look like town.
I'm unsure about Thor- I'll see after a couple of more posts.

VERY unsure about Amor

Pine looks slightly scummy
Toon fighter seems like mafia - quite interested in his next post

Maxous, could you please explain the bolded reads? (In the case of Amor, this is more clarification of wording--by "very unsure" you mean you can't read Amor, or that your read is uneasy/scummy/etc?)

@Wraith: So, if I understand you correctly, your hunch on nhammen is largely meta-based? If so, games, please?

@Nhammen: When you get back, would like to hear your thoughts on the attention being thrown on Silver, especially given the 'fake scumhunting' belief you hold about Pine.

~DarthYoshi

[Wraith]

@SZS: It's less a "hunch" at this point in time, more of a "fool me twice, hang on me. fool me twice, hang on you" IGMEOY

But here are the games:

There Will Be Bloodshed
NY118

[Amor]

Welcome to the game, Mastin, and thanks for replacing.

Thor -- I just don't think it's a good idea to intentionally ignore the half of the player base who are below the radar right now, or tell people how to escape your suspicion. But your response gives me town vibes, so I think this is just an argument about tactics.

Don't like this post. Why make a list of reads if they're almost all going to be uncertain or couched in weak language ("looks slightly", "seems like", "I think")? This is trying to look active and content-full without taking much of a stance.

Since you appear willing to accept 100% that when I claim I'll give wonderful town uber coverage to anyone who sheeps me. Allow me to say something else you can take as 100% true.
I am selling the Brooklyn Bridge and am doing so very cheaply - please PM me so I can get your relevant details and a down payment.
You'll be town if you do this.

[SubzeroSith]

Silver, let us know when you're ready to add some non-lulz content. I see zero substance in your last three posts.

[silverbullet999]

maybe it's cause... hmmm I dunno... I'm waiting for a reply?
