I'm back, I'm going to be making a lot of posts so I can address things as I read instead of reading it all and potentially missing something. I'll post my avatar in the last post. I'd appreciate it if people waited until after I'm done to address anything in those posts. But I don't mind if you address other things while I'm multiposting though. ^_^

First off, I missed a question in the beginning. SuSa asked where my image came from.

I went to random.org, went to the die roller set it to 12 dice and rolled and took a screenshot. :)

Self Voting can often end in a policy lynch, it is ill advised.

@Post 64: I missed this

But you called it out in such a parading way... like you're totally 100% sure he has some sort of ulterior motive just because of the lack of consistency. I would expect a new player to be slightly inconsistent imo...

I think he was just trying to sound smart and was a little thrown off by people making such sudden random votes. I definitely was until you provided those links... I just didn't post.
I don't agree that I shouldn't ignore a lack of consistency. However you are right in that it could be a scared new player. However that scared new player can be both newbie town or newbie scum. I wasn't calling for SuSa to be lynched, I was instead attempting to get a better read off of why exactly SuSa changed his opinion. Whether it was an honest attempt at joining the RVS after learning or him really just being inconsistent scum. His responses help me gauge how I feel about him.

@70: ninja'd by this

Unvote: Chaco
Vote: Bowser King


There can only be one King! And he is Crimson (Because Bowser is part of a SasukeBowser.. seriously.. wtf is that?)

____________

That sit better for you as a random vote?
I don't like this post. I'm not asking you to appease me with a real random vote. This seems like a legit attempt to get me to just leave you alone with no actual defense to what I was accusing you of.

It's not against the rules to self vote, as sometimes it can be a good tool. However, that's far to limited. Anyways, we understand you're new. And if we slack up on you, you won't learn as well as us playing naturally.

@72

I definitely can see what you're saying Xiivi. You think because he had suspicions of Chaco for the random logic... and then coincidentally his own random vote happened to land on Chaco... it's almost too much of a coincidence, amirite?. Or am I reading this the wrong way?

I personally think SuSa was at a genuine loss of what was happening at the start of this game... didn't know what was going on... voted Chaco due to the lack of logic involved in his vote (he could have voted you)... felt a little embarrassed when you posted all those articles about RVS and randomness and such... then decided that his excuse for voting Chaco was a random vote anyways... which is a perfectly genuine thing to do imo
Yes, you are understanding what I'm saying. Thanks for looking at the situation in a different way, I like it when people add new things to the discussion.

However, I don't like how you've pretty much given a free ticket for SuSa to borrow your reasoning.

But, the point that I really like was what you pointed out about how he could have voted for me. He could have tossed an OMGUS at me very easily if he wanted to try and spin the "new player being attacked by more experienced player card". And I really do like that.

Now we'd have to go off faith here for a moment.

Just pointing out a few scenarios that could happen:

1) If I agree with Kataefi, that could make us look bad. It could make me look worse for trying to clear the target off my back, and it would make Kataefi look bad for defending me.

2) I can already see Kataefi looking bad for defending me

3) If I disagree with Kataefi, that could mean two things.
A) I'm to embarrassed to admit that Kataefi speaks the truth
B) I could be trying to clear Kataefi for defending me.

Now this entire post could seem bad because it even puts the thought we are working together into your head.

So now, as a noob, I come forth to say.

Kataefi speaks the truth.

Take it for what you will, considering you would have to trust me. This may very well put a target on both of our backs, or put a larger target on my back for trying to clear myself, but me knowing that practicably every outcome results in a target on my back, except for the others believing me (which now seems near impossible), would I do it?

If you are really suspicious (and hoping we don't have one of those 3 cops that come up with false results), a Cop could merely inspect me. I could cast a No Lynch (therefore being of no harm to anyone) and at worst for me, the Mafia kills me tonight.
This post is full of WIFOM.

If you don't know what that is I'd like to show you:
WIFOM

@#1: You used the word "us". I really really don't like that. Why did you say us? You essentially attempted to buddy on Kataefi at that point when I didn't feel that Kataefi was buddying you at all.

@#2: I didn't see it as bad at all. It's as if you're assuming you're going to be lynched and because of your flip that we'll pursue Kataefi.

@#3: WIFOM: Instead of just saying if Kataefi was correct or not, you say what it means when you do agree with him. Essentially you're saying "I could be clearing Kataefi" but if you were scum and Kataefi was town you'd be fine with the buddying or some random vice verse **** I'm not going to complicate over and blah blah blah I really get nothing from this.

@Next part: This is all just bad. I really, really would like it if you had just said "Yes, he's right, I got scared/embarrassed whatever" or something. Instead there's a big paragraph still linking yourself to Kataefi and assuming you're 100% sure to be lynched today.

The next paragraph you rolefish/attempt to direct night actions which is always a bad idea. No Lynches are bad as it operates under the assumption that if we accidentally lynch a townie it will mean the end of the world and thus we shouldn't attempt to target scum based on their actions and instead wait for night actions to give us answers. That's dumb.

HoS: SuSa

Skipping the finger, you got the hole damn hand. Newbie card can only take you so far.
I'd like elaboration on why you feel an FoS is too little and a vote is too much. Especially when I'm the only vote on SuSa at the time of this post.

SuSa strikes me as most suspicious so far.
He can't seem to make up his mind on who to vote and it kind of looks like him and Kataefi are working together. I'm not really suspicious of Kataefi since it was mainly SuSa dragging him into the arguing but still.

I posted that knowing it would draw suspicion towards me. I'm asking if you are willing to take my word on that? Thinking back, changing my vote probably drew more suspicion towards me.

My eliminating me first, it would prove at the very least that Kataefi and I weren't working together. As Siblings, Lovers, or (is there a third?)

I don't think it would clear Kataefi from being Mafia, because why else would a Mafia member try and clear a Townies name - except to not be suspected of being Mafia? However, I feel he's simply trying to clear my name because this is my first game, and he? doesn't want to see the newbie go first day for making a mistake.

Right now, by defending me Kataefi has put (himself?) into a poor position, regardless of what happens to me. If I am lynched, him defending me could look good or bad. It would depend entirely on do you think he'd defend me to defend me, believing I made an honest mistake. Or did he defend me to make himself look good so as to not be suspected of being Scum?
Wow, why are you still buddying Kataefi sooooooooooo hard?

I was fine with Kataefi defending you at the time. His post got me closer to unvoting you actually. But these posts are making my vote stay. You're just WIFOMing over and over. "He could be bad for defending me!" "But he could be good for it!" Blah blah blah

I just want to say I would have signed up, but the first picture in the OP dissuaded me.

I guess I'll be a replacement unless your character is a 13 year old school girl.
Please just post saying you're willing to be a replacement. I don't want people looking at this post and saying "you can't replace me because I'm a 13 year old school girl looooooooolllll" which is essentially some kind of BS softclaim.

SuSa... What?

I'm waiting until the game develops a bit and then I can cast my thoughts on you properly.. I'm just saying right now you had beginner's blues and were being accused so swiftly and suddenly. That's all. Don't drag it out with all these hypothetical situations involving my possible defence for you.
Once again I like this. I'm feeling really good about Kataefi at this point as he's essentially calling SuSa out for the massive buddying without knowing the term.

Kataefi, how uncomfortable do you feel about SuSa's attempt to link to you? Why wasn't it enough for you to question him or toss a FoS/Vote?

Worst case scenario for letting me live Day 1 (and be inspected if possible), and Lynching me Day 2 if seen as Scum?

For me, that would be Scum killing me tonight, or killing me Day 2 for not being lynched.

For the town, since I am seen as Scum. If I had an ability - I may be able to use it to help the Mafia for that one night.

For Scum, they waste a kill killing me or by letting me live, it would draw more suspicion towards me. Eventually letting the town lynch me)

Seeing as how I'm basically screwed any way I see it, entirely due to my own scrubbiness.

At least I know how to start the game off now. (Not the way I started this one.)
Why are you trying to direct when and if the town lynches you + rolefish/night action directing?

Please stop with the WIFOM stuff.

Your last part is also AtE:
AtE

You aren't a guaranteed lynch for today, there's always a possibility people can change their opinions about you. A lot of the attacks on you have come from 2/3 players. There's still a lot of players who need to weigh in. You seem more like scum giving up than town giving in at this point.

Apparently you do not understand my use of sarcasm. That said, I'm not even playing so why are you trying to talk to me?

Why are you over-analysing so early in the game? And for someone who claims to be so scrubby?



I particularly don't like this quote.

Yes I have been defending you, so in that sense we're tied together... but you're drawing such unnecessary attention to both you and me.

Did I take the bait so that another town-dressed mafia member can come in, pinpoint me for defending you, and swing the lynch parade my way? Because if that's the case I've dropped the bait.


FoS: SuSa

This is a good point. SuSa is bringing a lot of stuff to the table while the newbie card could be just as easily of a play.

Also why the FoS and not a vote at this point?

If SuSa is lynched at the end of today, how would you feel in each scenario for his flip? (town/mafia/indy)

BREAKING MY POST FOR THIS:

My point is:

Outside players don't post in this thread. PM the mod asking to sign up as a replacement instead. You posted something for all players to see that wasn't just "hey I'd like to sign up".

The reason it upset me is because sasuke posted in-thread of grammys mafia at the beginning and people assumed he was a player. So I don't like them posting in the thread with non-"I'd like to be a replacement" posts.

I also won't address any posts from non-players/mods from this point onwards.

Vote: SuSa

If anything, I'm being detrimental to the townies, I also see no rules against suicide.
This is a bad way to be helpful if you are town. And also a bad way to get people to take votes off of you.

WHY DO YOU NOT UNVOTE AFTER THIS SuSa?

If you're going to give up and try to lynch yourself, then it's going to happen which isn't fair to either faction you're on and pretty much ruining the game for others.

Airgemini #96&98:

Why are you just FoSing SuSa?

Do you have anything of your own to add to the plate?

How is SuSa "not making up his mind on who to vote"?

How would you feel about Kataefi if SuSa is lynched and flips scum/town/indy?

With the hole I dug (I believe all players thus far at least have a FoS or worse on me), nothing I say can particularly get me out.

"When you find yourself digging a hole, quit digging."
Little quote from my History teacher.

Until more people post then the few that have been posting from the start, I'm just going to shut my mouth.

It may happen. It doesn't mean it will happen. I haven't given up yet.

Let's get started! SuSa stands out so far for obvious reasons. Suiciding is never a good idea if you're Town because it won't leave any information (you're a safe vote for everyone). You look extremely bad, but if you're close to a lynch (which you're not yet!) you could always claim or at least give us something to work with. Note that it's way to earlier for you to play your entire hand, but you're definitely not done yet.

@SuSa #111

SuSa it doesn't matter how many votes, FoSes, etc... are on you until you are dead, you are still alive and can still participate in the game and have 0 reason to throw in the towel by voting yourself.

Confirming role pm. On iPhone.

this game already has an unhealthy focus on two players, susa and xiivi. this will prove to be a mistake. i want the two of them to shut up for now or at least slow down. i'll be back at the computer by sunday evening.

I want to reinforce this point so SuSa doesn't claim yet. Whatever his alignment is, he definitely wasn't ready for the pressure and I don't want him to attempt to claim so early.

SuSa please do not claim unless at some point you get to L-1 (the number of votes required to lynch, minus one) and feel it is the best action. There is still a lot of time in this game, there are still plenty of posts I want to see, I don't want this day to end yet.

I've directed plenty of questions at others along the way. Just because SuSa is in the hotspot doesn't mean the day is already going to end. (Which is something I really want SuSa to realize.)

Personally I'd much rather see a nameclaim + paraphrase of flavour text before deciding if you needed to claim your role as well or not. But I'll wait to hear the opinions of other players and wait until the situation is actually at hand. (Which it isn't now.)

Xiivi, you have posted WAY TOO MUCH. Literally your number of posts so far is suspicious in my opinion.

You need to realize that when you ask everyone questions, you are stretching a string between you and them. When you ask everyone questions, you are tagging those strings to yourself. At the beginning of the Day, you are narrowing the focus severely. On top of that, you are already talking about the end of the Day for some reason.

This is unhealthy to the game. We need proper round table discussion. If you don't want to simply take my word on this, you can look it up yourself, but this is my experienced advice.

Shut it and let the Day progress.

2. Do not quote mod PMs, and do not fake a quoted mod PM. Do not post the quote, image, or any of the information that is in your role PM. Breaking this rule can result in a modkill. Simply put everything in your own words and you will be fine. Do not attempt to refer to your image in any way. (This rule does not apply to situations where you are quoting your PM to someone with whom you are allowed to privately communicate.)
So which information is Ok to give? If so, how would I go about giving said information.

Just want to know so I know. I have no plans to do so yet.
