In post 40, Larry David wrote:Yeah! Seems like we have started!

Awesome. First off Im doing this: VOTE: asher1611 ( Again dude, we want to see the rainbow gold!)

And then I have some random questions :D

Q1) Do you have any experience with mafia games (This site or others)
Q2) What time zone are you in?
Q3) How often can we expect a post from you?
Q4) What role do you like to play the most?
Q5) How do you guys feel about lurkers or liars?


Forgot to respond to this.

1) Yes. I've played on EM and a couple other message boards.
2) PDT, California.
3) I'm a college student, so I'll be a busy bee. I'll be posting at least once a day from this point forward though.
4) I like to play as VT. Lets me run loose and scum hunt how I please. Otherwise, Cop. I prefer playing Town over scum.
5) I'm a bit of a lurker, so I get it when people are busy. I'm ok with lynch all liars unless there's a clear town motivation for their actions.

Hope everything will work out okay for you two.

But I said I'd reply to that and people would probably slap me if I ignored it, so there.

asher wrote:So we're all Voided's evil Ex's? Too bad I lost my vegan powers.

And I think you're overstating what voided is doing here. I don't think his aggressiveness necessarily makes him town, but you raising a "everybody vs X" fallacy does seem like it is trying to redirect attention onto voided to get other people to tunnel him.

I'm not trying to get everyone on him by stating a fact: yes, he's the one who interacted with the others the most so far in the game, it's not a big secret. I didn't even accuse him or anything, because he hasn't done much that seems very mafia-y. He's fishing with his votes, doesn't tunnel, etc. So I can't really see where you're going with that.

But yes, I did overstate that. The reference was too tempting.

I don't like where you're going with this. Why does one have to make a lynch more difficult for themselves than necessary? The process is simple: find the person who you think is most likely to be subverting the town, vote for that person, convince others to do the same, and lynch. If you were right, great. So many people are concerned about being in the crosshairs or espousing too much about making the "anti-town" play. To me this sounds like you're trying to appear town by speaking too much. Don't like bandwagons? Sometimes they happen with good reason and sometimes the scum slip and jump on board at the wrong time.

So instead of looking for people who are subverting the town, you get in an exchange with voided and follow it up by sitting back to take in the other fireworks while never fully resolving your points.

UNVOTE:
VOTE: Zenax

Let's say that at the beginning of the game everyone voted for the same person, without giving any reasoning or anything. It is an easy lynch, right? But no matter the alignment of the person who was lynched, the information gained from it is close to zero, because there has been no discussion, no arguing, no previous vote, no nothing before. Before you say it: I know it's not the same situation, but it's similar; with all these votes pilled on Xephoria, the mafia would have had a perfect opportunity to cause a mislynch, or if he is mafia, to bus his friend.

I can't see what else I was supposed to do while waiting for Xephoria to answer to my vote beside keeping on talking with whoever was there; discussions can only help the game move forward, so again I don't see where you're going with that.

Not close enough to a lynch, at least. Think I'm the only vote on him, but it's a good spot to vote.

Chrimi is utterly useless but that makes me wonder if he'd too scummy to be scum

I guess he'll be needing lynching at some point though

Using mafia to ease things is fine. I'm fine with that, so long as you don't try to bring personal stuff or any rants into here.

Being on MS and NOT DOING ANYTHING when you're supposed to be on V/LA is something else entirely, regardless of V/LA reasons.

I'm not really 'here', I get about 15 minutes a day and that's not near enough time to read everything in all of the games I'm in.

And I love how VM just says "Sic em" and this little puppets come over and follow him without anything but "Yeah I agree."

Sorry guys, was busy with some stuff. I'll be much more active now.
@Chrimi- I don't understand your play-style :| You seem to not really care if you get lynched or something else but I'm not sure. I don't see much of a reason to vote unless it gets near the end of the day.

@Llud- Please, don't take this offensively but could you post a little more? I shouldn't be saying this since my posts aren't very useful. It's just that I can't get much of a read on you.

That's because you haven't played with a non-V/LA Chrimi.

I don't have time to think right now >.>
