Scav didn't know who the mafia was. If he went after Goldshadow, that probably meant that he thought Goldshadow was town. No way to know for sure, but that's our best guess.
Is there any evidence to suggest that Scav didn't know who the mafia are? for roles similar to that I've seen it with the "traitor" knowing who the mafia are, and the mafia not knowing who the traitor are and told to check one person to see if they're the traitor.

Also, I think I remember talking to Tom after McCloud and we agreed that the Jester role was a terrible role, but I'm not positive if it was Tom or Marshigio/mediocre/ anyone else.

One of the inactive players IMO. I don't really care which one at the moment, but if someone has something on one of them, please say so.

EDIT: Looking back, I'd say we take redcell or Yeroc.

*flips coin*

Vote: Yeroc

I have no idea what time it is at the hosts' place, but this should be on time.

Well, there is a tie. I'm going to extend the deadline until Wednesday Noon EST because of all the mixups, since this is the broom and everything.

I disagree with purging the inactive players off the bat: If some one were inactive and had an important role like mafia or cop, I'm pretty sure Tom nom nom nom! would replace them to keep the game from just turning into a guessing game.

Vote: Marc

I am still somewhat suspicious of him.

It's more so a hunch than anything else. Granted, we're the only really active players so I don't have anyone else to to really juxtapose you to.

I find that a pretty weak reason, but it's true we have little else to go on.

You say inactive players would be replaced if they were Mafia or the Cop, why are you so sure? You are a replacement yourself, are you Mafia? Or are you trying to imply you're the Cop? If the latter is the case, you could simply check me out at night instead of putting me in danger without knowing for sure, which leads me to believe you can only be Mafia or some less significant good guy role I know nothing about.

Why do you want me gone instead of a player you know nothing about now and will probably still know nothing about at the end? That would only be convenient for... the Mafia.

I'm a bit hesitant to suspect someone who attacks me, because I don't want to let my only certainty (that I'm innocent) cloud my judgement about other players. I'd like the input of others on this.

I am so sure because I know Tom fairly well. In some ways, it's an unfair disadvantage because I'm the only one who knows him in real life. In fact, I didn't even want to be in BRoom mafia (why I didn't sign up) but told Tom that if he needed an extra person I would join for him.

And just as Scav was very vocal about deducing who was what and where, you seem to be posting in the same vein as him. And I said my vote was just a hunch: deadline is Wednesday and we aren't even close to a majority vote since no one else is active. I just have the feeling that you're excited about your role, and that would narrow it down.

Real life info takes away from the fun, but it should be used. Why OWM's role? There were quite a few inactives to pick from.

I love playing this game. I feel obliged to be active no matter the role and wish more players would be like that. I am well aware this puts me at risk. Given the circumstances I can do two things:

1. Not stand out and either be killed in the night or not at all. This way is bad for my side because Townies need to be active and work together in order to keep their numbers high. This is also the reason I will defend myself, my death is bad for my group.

2. Be active and try to lure out the Mafia among the active players. This is more fun and is the only way I can contribute to this game, besides staying alive, because I'm nothing special. Oh, and didn't I sign up to play?

Killing me because I'm active or post in a style that's similar to Scav are pretty bad reasons IMO. So far I'm pretty disappointed with the activity and that would only add to my disappointment.

For all I know Tom has been trying to get replacements for Yeroc and Redcell and whatnot. He could still be trying to get them active or new BRoomers (though I don't know how many extra we have lying around) Other than that, I don't know why he chose me for OWM.

And being suspicious of a playstyle is fair game: what else do we have to go on when no one is saying anything? Some people's playstyle is to do nothing and you are advocating their lynch.

But I agree with you that more people need to be active: no one is doing anything other than us and all we're doing is paranoid banter :crying:

Heh, I guess you could consider inactivity a playing style and a viable one at that. But we can all agree it's no fun and can make the game unplayable. I'm not hell-bent on lynching an inactive player, but it's the best I can currently come up with. Replacing the inactives would be sweet, but if it takes too long it won't make much of a difference anymore. Looks like we got some more time, so we might be able to think of something.

I'm going to bed now, no more 1 on 1 sparring in the hours to come. =p

I'm going to vote for Yeroc

Out of necessity so we don't kill off a player and play for the no lynch. We're going to need more information then "he's posting like Scav" to vote one of the more active players out imho.

Deadline hits!
Vote Count [7/13 to lynch]
Marc (2): Eor, Virgilijus
Yeroc (2): Marc, KevinM

As explained by the deadline rules, nobody is lynched by a tie.

Day 2 ends! Nobody is lynched!

The teacher scolds you for your poor scum-hunting performance. "The longer you wait before you attempt to lynch someone, the more free kills the mafia gets to take."

The bell rings and you all shuffle out of second period.

Deadline for all night actions is Friday, 12 Noon EST. Please send in your night actions.

I also have two replacements lined up, in <3 and Matunas. If you no longer are able to play, or are inactive with no intent of becoming active, please ask to be replaced.

The bell rings and you all stomp into third period gym class. Everyone is decked out in the gym shorts and t-shirt and holding a basketball... except for Virgilijus, who clings to her precious blackberry.

"Did you go anywhere last night?" she asks some of her fellow classmates.

"Did you see anyone visit you? Did you visit anyone? Do ya got any hot gossip? Did you hear the rumors about who is part of the mafi--"

All of the sudden, the gym's double-doors burst open to reveal your principal. He is shirtless, wearing a kilt, and the left half of his face is painted blue.

"FREEEEDOM!" he shouts as he begins to run straight towards Virgilijus.

"What is going ON IN THIS SCHOOL?!" she screams, dropping her precious PDA and running for her life.

"HYAAA!" the principal screams as he lifts a broadsword high into the air and mauls Virgilijus body. He chops her legs clean off. As she falls to the floor, the principal crushes her head under his boot and wails "GRAAAHHHHH!"

He then looks around the room... puts away his massive broadsword... and walks away...

Virgilijus(The Gossiper), the pro-town reporter, is dead.

Day 3 begins!
With 12 alive, it takes a majority of 6 to lynch!
A deadline has been set for Sunday, October 5th, Noon EST.

A handful of players have been PM prodded for activity. If you need to be replaced, please ask to be, because we have two replacements lined up. Thank you.

"Mistah Virgilijus — he dead."



Also, mafia sucks, killing all the active people and effectively bringing the thread to a halt. You guys suck!

Only FOUR votes? WTF is wrong with everyone? We'll never find the Mafia if people don't play. This is getting ridiculous. -_-

KevinM: Good call, I would have been dead without that.

Also, by request and in an effort to promote activity, every player is now required to vote at least once before the deadline hits.

****, fine, you arrogant *******s! I'll play your little game!

You know what? I don't like how KevinM jumped in on the vote last round. It seemed like he was trying to protect Marc by tieing the vote at the last second. I think they're both Mafia.

VOTE: KevinM

I don't see how, if you think KevinM is mafia based off of Marc being mafia, that'd you'd vote for KevinM. You'd vote for Marc, to see if KevinM is mafia. But what you did is attempt to paint it like if KevinM is town then Marc is town. Either way, I do think that Marc is suspicious due to his leadingness, which is similar to what mafia always do. And his strong insistence that I immediately unvote him. But beyond all of that, it's also a hunch.

Vote: Marc

Anyone can be Mafia, more often than not they stay fairly quiet. Two active players got offed by the Mafia so far, it'd be pretty stupid of me to do that. It makes me stand out even more. Also quite convenient that Virgilijus, who also voted for me, got killed right away.

And his strong insistence that I immediately unvote him.
Err... I almost died because only 4 people voted. Your vote was based on a joke. Trying to justify that stupid action by pursueing me even more won't help. You seem to want to get rid of me badly, seeing how you voted again right away. Trying to win the crowd?

Huh.. wha.. whazzit?

I'm sorry guys, I was napping! What'd I miss?

Oh, God.. Virg is dead?? DEAD?! This is terrible news. =(

This calls for a good joke!


...


The bishop decided that he would conduct the interviews personally for a new bell ringer and went up into the belfry to begin the screening process. After observing several applicants demonstrate their skills, he had just about decided to call it a day. But just then, an armless man approached him and announced that he was there to apply for the bell ringer`s job.

Incredulously, the bishop blurted out, "But. . .you have no arms!"

"No matter," said the man: "Observe!"

And he began striking the bells with his face, producing a beautiful melody on the carillon. The bishop listened in astonishment, convinced he had finally found a suitable replacement for Quasimodo.

But suddenly, rushing forward to strike a bell, the armless man tripped and plunged headlong out of the belfry window, falling to his death in the street below.

The stunned bishop rushed to his side. When he reached the street, a crowd had gathered around the fallen figure, drawn by the beautiful music they had heard only moments before.

As they silently parted to let the bishop through, one of them asked,

"Bishop, who was this man?"

"I don`t know his name," the bishop sadly replied,

"... but his face rings a bell." The bishop decided that he would conduct the interviews personally for a new bell ringer and went up into the belfry to begin the screening process.

Apprently, someone who would have been REALLY REALLY helpful had OmegaWhiteMage decided to, y'know, post a little. We'd at least have one solid lead on who is or isn't mafia. And now Virge is dead, and we didn't get the opportunity once again to use his power. =/

I wish I could do more than make you guys laugh! But alas, I am what I am... and I'm SUPER FUNNY!

Sequel to my previous joke:

The following day, despite the sadness that weighed heavily on his heart due to the unfortunate death of the armless campanologist, the bishop continued his interviews for a new bell ringer of Notre Dame.

The first man to approach him said, "Your Excellency, I am the brother of the poor armless wretch who fell to his death from this very belfry yesterday. I pray that you honor his life by allowing me to replace him in this duty."

The bishop agreed to give the man an audition, and, as the armless man`s brother stooped to pick up a mallet to strike the first bell, he groaned, clutched at his chest, and died on the spot.

Two monks, hearing the bishop`s cries of grief at this second tragedy, rushed up the stairs to his side.

"What has happened? Who is this man?" the first monk asked breathlessly.

"I don`t know his name," sighed the distraught bishop...

"....but he`s a dead ringer for his brother."

Ah, that's kinda like the Seer role. Meaning we lost one of our most valuable allies. I kinda suspected it because I didn't think the replacement would be random, which is why I hesitated to just vote for Virgilijus. The Mafia picked up on that as well, which leads me to believe some of them aren't that stupid. And OWM should be banned from Smashboards, seriously.

My last post was poorly written

Where is this coming from? Last I checked you acted like you were completely new to this when we started

Two active players got offed by the Mafia so far, it'd be pretty stupid of me to do that.
That doesn't make any sense, if you were mafia you would not be in danger of getting killed by them.

It makes me stand out even more. Also quite convenient that Virgilijus, who also voted for me, got killed right away.
I don't understand the point of your message, unless it's suppose to be a threat. But I don't see how you could of found a threat to be a good point to make publicly, so I'm confused



Err... I almost died because only 4 people voted. Your vote was based on a joke. Trying to justify that stupid action by pursueing me even more won't help.
Yep, exactly what I'm doing. Because you know Eor, cares so much about image! Way to try and turn this into something it's not

You seem to want to get rid of me badly, seeing how you voted again right away. Trying to win the crowd?
I think you're mafia, so of course I will try to off you. I don't care how you try to paint my argument, it was an attack on you because I think you're mafia. You can lie about it all you want, the purpose was clear.

I vote Marc. He really likes to bring up odd things that seem to just confuse us. Also, voting for Virg, then having Virg get killed seemed pretty dumb. In fact, I've been Mafia in a game where we did that to frame someone. It works pretty well until people start catching on. For now, I'll stay with Marc. We kinda need to lynch SOMEONE this time.

I realistically want to vote Matt, just to get him to shut the **** up, but that would just be a bad idea because there is no doubt he's a townie.

Vote: Marc

Oh come on! You know that joke is awesome. =P

Okay, okay, how about this one? I read it in the comics today.

If we have social security numbers, what do Snap, Crackle, and Pop have?

..
...
...........

CEREAL NUMBERS!

Hehe, those silly Middletons.

I'm really curious as to what Marc's role is. If he's the antagonist townie (I dunno, arrogant jock?), then I suppose he's "clean." Still, I really don't like the behavior, nor the personal attacks.

Vote: Marc

Really? Because before you said it was because he was attacking you.
When you are a Townie and you suspect someone is the Seer, YOU DON'T POST THAT UNLESS THAT PERSON IS IN DANGER OF GETTING LYNCHED. It's like saying who the Mafia should go after. I suspected Virgilijus had a special role and thought it more likely that it was a good guy role, but at the same time he was attacking me, so I was confused. I decided to wait it out and not go after him and risk killing the Seer.

Dunno why'd you be so positive about that
Both night kills so far have been pretty good.

Where is this coming from? Last I checked you acted like you were completely new to this when we started
Have you been reading my posts at all? I have played a lot of Mafia, except it was in Dutch, some of the rules were different and I don't know what the roles are called.

That doesn't make any sense, if you were mafia you would not be in danger of getting killed by them.
Not really, it's far more riskier for me to stand out than be one of several active players. What's happening right now pretty much proves my point. I enjoy playing the game, so I wouldn't take out all good players right away, but I realise that I can't back that up right now.

I don't understand the point of your message, unless it's suppose to be a threat. But I don't see how you could of found a threat to be a good point to make publicly, so I'm confused
Virgilijus voted me and got killed right away. Isn't that a bit TOO convenient? I hope you get it this time.

Yep, exactly what I'm doing. Because you know Eor, cares so much about image! Way to try and turn this into something it's not
No, I don't know Eor. All I see is someone who almost gets me killed because I spoiled MGS4. So either you don't take the game seriously or you're a moron. If you already had a serious suspicion back then, you could have posted more. Who knows, I could have been dead already!

I think you're mafia, so of course I will try to off you. I don't care how you try to paint my argument, it was an attack on you because I think you're mafia. You can lie about it all you want, the purpose was clear.
I think your attack is based on too little and you're narrowing your vision too much.

I vote Marc. He really likes to bring up odd things that seem to just confuse us.
Like what?

Also, voting for Virg, then having Virg get killed seemed pretty dumb. In fact, I've been Mafia in a game where we did that to frame someone.
I'm not sure what you mean? I didn't vote for Virgilijus.

For now, I'll stay with Marc. We kinda need to lynch SOMEONE this time.
That's what I've been saying SINCE DAY ONE. Except I wouldn't go after one of the most active players. -_-

I'm really curious as to what Marc's role is. If he's the antagonist townie (I dunno, arrogant jock?), then I suppose he's "clean." Still, I really don't like the behavior, nor the personal attacks.
Clarify yourself. I may come across as a bit more rude than I'd like to, but 1. this is the internet, 2. I'm not English, 3. I'm really annoyed by the general lack of activity and the ease with which people jump on a bandwagon. Personal attacks? Like what? Even though you're all a bunch of idiots if you go through with this, I won't like you guys any less or more outside of this game.

Let's just say that I find your general lack of temperance.. disconcerting. And this has nothing to do with foreignness, I don't believe. But... I wanna give you the benefit of the doubt, and even if the 'tude isn't a role restriction, it might just be you and I suppose there's some reason for it. The game must go on, and not everyone (myself included) has been doing their part.

You're too obvious of a candidate for mafia. Your back-and-forth with Virg and his death are easily linkable, just like the mafia would want us to notice. But I could be wrong. It could be so obvious that we're meant to second-guess the likelihood of it.

Unfortunately, I still don't think that we have any other better leads. I may yet change my vote to an inactive player, but for now my vote will be you.

And in my opinion, AltF4 has been in the same boat since the beginning. His candidacy for mafia is too obvious, given the role that he plays. Too obvious, or perhaps dead-on. We simply do not know at this point, and it feels like a 50-50 coin toss until we whack-off a bad guy.

And on a totally unrelated note:

What's the difference between a Porsche and a hedgehog?

Marc, I really don't think you're mafia, but your playstyle is a bit too aggressive. You've got some experience, and from what I can see, you're fairly smart. You're only hurting yourself by calling the other players idiots. Makes them much more likely to listen to what you have to say.

The reason I don't think Marc is mafia is because it's simply too perfect. Look at it. Virg comes out in one of the last posts of the day and votes for Marc. Marc, who has some experience in these sorts of games, immediately retaliates by nightkilling Virg. Frankly, I think Marc is smart enough not to draw that kind of attention to himself.

The mafia, on the other hand, could have seen Virg's vote for Marc. They could have seen that Marc responded strongly (although not with a vote). They could have said, "wow, this looks like an excellent setup for framing Marc." And frankly, that's what I suspect happened.

I'm not claiming that Marc's town. I really don't know. I am saying that I think the most likely scenario is that this is a mafia frame up of him.
