I showed restraint and careful judgment with the execute gambit in u'trick'd. Anyone who thinks I'm not capable of handling a gun is selling something, or they are afraid to not be in a position of power with me. There is no other reason, and neither is good.

by that logic i should be king for instantiating the gambit and making it believable enough to a point where mafRyker fell for it.

It actually wasn't boasting. I was postulating a counter argument to anyone who feels I should never be king. It was also bait for anyone who felt I wasn't qualified to testify as to why they felt that way, since to not challenge my postulation is to assume that I have a point.

Reason? I intend to lead Town to victory of course, and having a gun helps. It may or may not have to do with my role, but I'm unfamiliar with the possibilities that n0 holds, so I will refrain from saying anything more. But it's certainly within town's interest.

Rake, you gambiting as a kingmaker, and me holding an invisible gun, are two different roles, as you aren't acting in a position of authority superseding the one with the gun.

Spreading WIFOM? No. I'm not sure as why he wants a gun so early but I'm not going to take as anything indicative especially Bardull being Bardull. Also, I'll applaud you on leading town to victory but plenty of other players have done the same feat and done it better. I don't care about your role right now quite frankly either.

Soup's argument of credibility is of merit, however those with more credibility may be scum, so that's the obvious coin toss. Also, you seem to be contradicting your earlier statement regarding wanting someone who's easier to read, but not as good at holding a gun as say myself or more credible players.

It wasn't a reference to what I said merely a counter-argument provided to your statement. You're trying make your skill a factor into getting a gun and you come into this thread expecting people to buy in what you're saying. I don't understand why you care. I don't understand why you needed to come in here and boast your towniness and demand a gun. I don't even mention the fact you try to sprinkle on part of your role with it.. I'm trying to decide if you're being a moron of being scum right now.

I showed restraint and careful judgment in deciding who to give my imaginary gun to in utrik'd. Anyone who doubts my ability to read carefully into a situation and make the correct decision is either selling something or is afraid to see me in a position of power.


Is it bad? Why are you outing this? Do you feel it's indicative of alignment?

:phone:
Not necessarily, just felt like saying it.

But for you I'll make a special exception and say : It's bardull, let's see what happens.

Soup, your painting of my slot as being 'boastful' is odd considering that such an element isn't indicative of anything.

Frankly, thus far you've demonstrated that you don't have solid rationale for not wanting me to have a gun, you are only trying to pair my slot in a negative light for reasons I'm unfamiliar with, perhaps you do not trust me? But you have no reason not to trust me as well, and so we're at odds.

More when I'm at a computer.

That's not what I asked. I asked you why you want a gun and the only thing you can conclude is that I doubt you. I have every reason to doubt you and you're not doing a good job of proving me wrong. Reasons you're unfamiliar with? Like what? What do you even mean?

Being the most hated
There are a lot of other people here who have shown themselves to be good at decision making.

Bardull, what separates yourself and makes you a prime choice for D1 execute power?

Bardull, how would you use the execute to garner reads and the like, and what makes you feel like a execute would change how you would do it without one ?

Okay, at this point, plz do not post unless you're confirming your role.

ATM, it is now N0. Kingmaker could pick who he wants for D1 by sending me a PM.

When he does, I'll start up the game.

It's a Night phase, guys. Treat it like a Night phase.

Confirming role.

also I'm V/LA until Tuesday. It's fall break starting tomorrow and I'm going to Chicago. I'll be checking the thread every night hopefully though and posting.

God, I hate posting on my phone. Oh, sweet computer, how I've missed you so.

Rake, your "tangential point" was inconsequential because it didn't serve as evidence to debunk my point. As for how I would act, uh, you've seen me with a gun, haven't you? Always pro-town.

Soup is more or less doubting me without postulating a good reason for why I shouldn't be king (he hasn't substantiated this stance at all). However, I assert that, If I get the gun, I'll do the BarDulL thing and get reads on everyone, easy peezy. I doubt I'll be easier to read than, say, any of the "credible" players, however I have confidence that we'll succeed anyway.

Actually, the first thing I'll do is set up standard mafia rules within the game itself. I'll execute anyone who reaches a "majority vote", and I will act as a "sub-mod" by keeping up vote counts within the game. Everyone is free to vote for whoever they want, even for me, but not much good that'll do you since voting for me is absolutely counter productive. However, I reserve the right to execute anyone at anytime whenever and for whatever reason I please, however I promise it won't be unjust in any way, shape, or form, and will be within bounds of human rationality.

@Mod - Oh yeah, that reminds me: it totes makes sense for us to be able to talk about who gets King'd during this phase imho, since having someone be "Kingmaker" on n0 is kinda pointless without giving them some kind of information to let them make a legitimate decision, also makes things interesting in terms of connections and what not pre-RVS. Apologies if we weren't supposed to do that though, you kinda said "ok you guys can confirm now" but didn't reassert that we weren't suppose to talk n0 after the mishap with the role PMs and people posting...or something.

When you host your own Mafia kingmaker game, you can allow others to post. Otherwise, I would like it if you follow my rules (and if something doesn't seem right, point it out by PM at least).

God I have half a mind to mod kill half you people. >:C

Now no more posting from the lot of you. It's N0
