I don't want to vote Foo. It's weird to me that anyone has any interest in voting Foo. WWM did seem antsy but I think that's a normal reaction to a lot of pressure with no reasoning behind it.

I would love to kill Gulag and beat him up.Mithross posted:Ghostly made a solid case, but I don't think I'm ready to trust Hal again, and he's also on board. Real bad post/vote. He's ignoring valid content because Hal is backing it, in favor of a bandwagon vote with a lot of momentum. The question at the end of his post seems too self-conscious.

Also, Mithross says that GG made a solid case. That case was presumably Ghostly pointing out that WM was forcing an unnecessary and scummy highlander vote. Then Mithross goes along with that highlander vote. ##vote Mithross

Captain Foo posted:noting this as thirdvote Do you have anything to say about it being a thirdvote though?

Captain Foo posted:ummmmm not sure I understand. Ghostly makes the point that forcing a thunderdome or highlander or whatever is scummy, which is what Wall Monitor does. I agree, I vote Wall Monitor. Mithross agrees that Ghostly made a good point, then votes Which Way Madness. Mithross seems to be under the impression that Ghostly was backing the highlander vote rather than calling it scummy. I guess this could imply that Mithross just misunderstood, or else I misunderstood the point Ghostly was making, but I think it's indicative of Mithross faking content.

Hands up if you think that WWM is a better lunch than Mithross, because as it stands those are our two options.

Mithross posted:Actually, I thought highlander was a joke case, and was trying to play along, since there can be only one would work either way. I apparently just don't get joke phase. I think slamburger voting me with no reason is more indicative than my failed joke. You seemed sincere though.

Ghostly Gangsta posted:The Mithross bandwagon seems scummy as heck. How did Wall Monitor go from being tied for lynch leader with WWM, to not having any heat at all? That's suspicious. I feel like a No Lynch D1 could hurt the town, but both options seem terrible. I don't care for this post because it's bad. What about the Mithross votes constitute a bandwagon? -2 Town at the start of day two is standard. When balancing games, most moderators should assume that the town will mislunch day one, because it's just far more likely. No-lunching today is terrible. We'll start day two with one piece of information as opposed to two. We'll reiterate the same arguments and expand a little on them rather than approaching the next day with new information. This isn't your first game, so this is a weird sentiment.

Captain Foo posted:i buy it as a failed joke, this is his 2nd game Really though? If that was a joke it was incredibly deadpan. It's scummy to compartmentalize your vote inside a joke anyway.

# ¿ May 18, 2015 19:21 |

you're posturing pretty hard considering we pissed away today and can probably just barely manage a lunch.

Captain Foo posted:but not during jokephase, which is what it seems like he was trying to do, poorly. i'm not voting mithross today if there's any clear delineation between jokephase and gamephase i would put it right around when the wwm/wm votes started.

Captain Foo posted:nah i'd put it much closer to when ghostly and i explicitly started making actual arguments I guess going any further into this doesn't provide any real benefit but I think that Ghostly's vote on Wall Monitor was serious.

# ¿ May 18, 2015 19:31 |

Arguing about whether or not it is better to no-lunch does not help us here. I will save us both the time and let you know that it is almost never a good idea. This is as close to immutable truth as you get in Mafia.

That absolutely did not read like a joke vote to me. I misunderstood then. I thought Ghostly was calling out WM for promoting a vote that could only end in one of two players being lunched, which is a scummy way to direct votes and is rarely helpful to town.

Gulag is right. I would vote GG if it were possible today. It is not. ##vote which way madness Sorry lovely Wok.

Mithross posted:I still enjoy 4 and 6, although they are a bit dated. In particular, knowing all the incredibly exploitable bugs in 6 makes it hard to do a regular play through, like when I was younger well that's fair enough. baldur's gate is one of my favorite games, but I can't say that it has good gameplay or design within a modern context.

Ghostly Gangsta posted:I bought the phone port, it is unforgiving and painfully hard, but very worthwhile. Have you played Pillars yet? I can't stop gushing about it. I own it but I can't play it until I'm through with Bloodborne. I just have to double back to Castle Cainhurst at this point! As someone who played a lot of D&D 2nd Edition, anything based on D&D 2nd Edition can't be objectively good. I think the story succeeds in spite of itself.

votefinder posted:Votecount for Day 1 even though there wasn't much effort day one, everyone was at least voting. freaky. i feel good about foo but i forgot that he jumped ship to gg near the end there. i would vote nothing before foo if i were going to read into that though. I feel worse about Ghost seeing his awkward reaction to capps' joke.

hm well the scum is at least one of ghost/pig/nothing with foo as a dark horse, because while it was easy to miss the text that said WWM was Mafia, there was also a picture of Jacket right there with it.

Epsilon Plus posted:Also, just a brief point: it is possible but unlikely that Somber could be a scum godfather? We've had non-vanilla town and although I don't know enough about Hotline Miami's characters to really guess what the flavor would be, it's not mechanically impossible. I consider Somber town enough based on his content so far, but I just wanted to throw this out before we all get too far into talking confirmed town. sure, but why is that worth considering now? I'm still fine lunching Ghost. I feel like we have a solid pool of lunch candidates, let us just move forward.

the reason why lovely wok would use such a piss-useless power is because he had it anyway and hey maybe someone will wifom somber to death.

Ghostly Gangsta posted:piss-useless??? tsk. Also it would take a consensus for you to be killed, I've already been made out to look like a complete nutter. So why are you even sweating it? I'm more concerned about your posts, not just the fact that a flipped scum revealed you as town. actually you raise a good point, why am I bothering to respond to you?
