I feel like "ironically" trying to start a bandwagon is either 1) a person who doesn't realise they're actively aiding the scum or 2) scum trying to double their income in a way that's plausibly denial Either way can we cut that poo poo out?

Standard mafia practice: first day is a no-vote. Random voting (ESPECIALLY in early stages) has an extremely high chance of hitting the town. You need to build up a profile.

You're going to get information from the moderator anyway -- somebody innocent is going to die and who they are tells you a lot. I mean if a random lynching happens, it happens and that's more data, but I'm not voting in it today. I guess it's kinda a bad risk-reward? You double your data (from kills), but also half your window. There's a lot of data potentially lost, because the thread doesn't last as long and people aren't talking as much.

Yeah mea culpa. I've been in one mafia game ever (in GBS) and that's what happened, and everybody was just kinda like "yeah this is what we do"

ALRIGHT THIS IS WRITER MAFIA LET'S GIVE IT SOME WRITER JUICE Mr Muffin, clad in yellow, tapped his pencil to his chin. "If a man is silent" he said, "he's either hiding something, or he's not helping. Either way, his loss is felt less keenly."

I'm not really sure what you're basing the mojo thing on. You kept calling him 'corrupt' earlier and I kinda figured it was joke-phase stuff about him being a mod but I'd like to hear what you're thinking now.

Right. You kinda seem to know what's going on, but I'll hold fire for now. I'm still confused as to whether I dropped the hammer -- OP says no. We've got just over 2.5 hours to make a decision.

I am still not sold on SH -- I saw a lot of targeting happen during jokevoting but I'm not seeing anything massively suspicious so far? She's been quiet I guess?QuoProQuid posted:i'd advise everyone to hold for mod clarification. i made my post without reading the most recent posts in the thread, which is generally a no-no.

that count I posted does NOT update because I guess I hosed up the code somehow. Check the top of the OP.

Okay we've got two-ish hours left and b-minus is -1. I'm gonna be here all morning, so I'll throw the hammer down at 7:59 EDT if we get there without changes/a decision -- just so we don't need to worry about rushing to prevent a no-lynch.

FWIW, the thing I am most thinking is exmond 1) TD/CC poster, likely knows who mojo is 2) knows mojo is a huge threat based on that 3) was pushing a joking "hahaha what if we lynched somebody known in CC to be very clever and on-to-it on day 1 haha wouldn't that be crazy" way further than the joke needed

Not his in-game role, just that he's super well known in this part of the forum and he's known for being really good at poo poo. b-minus1 posted:I mean. What more can I say? I've been tunneled since the beginning. Sure I can post a bunch of reads but it's freaking day one. I would look at everyone who voted for me, especially T. rex, SH. Exmond posted:I think if anyone can protect QPQ they should? He seems knowledgeable and I think the town cop can protect?

Exmond posted:I uhh, I only post to Thunderdome and recently. (Well if 3 weeks can be considered recently). For the sake of transparency, my mafia experience: one GBS game, but my ex is a goon lady who was super into forum games and talked about it sometimes. So most of my "THIS IS HOW GAMES OF FORUM MAFIA WORK" is based on a relationship that ended in 2012 -- I know I talk like an AUTHORITY but I am acutely aware that I might be misremembering or loving things up.

Yeah I'll hammer b-minus 1 min before the deadline. We've got less than an hour left -- any last-minute cases, make 'em.

yeah it did pick it up -- check the OP. That's where the live counter is, and it shows you voting for b-minus.

Nope. I've got a fifth vote cued up if nothing major changes in the next 15 mins but the deadline is definitely closing.

Alrighty, hammertime.![]() Fingers crossed. ##vote b-minus1 Muffin paces the room, chews his fingernails. He picks a piece of lint from the lapels of his once-fashionable yellow jacket. The ends of his luxurious moustache twitch a little. He takes his vote to the box, and hovers over it for a moment. "Moment of truth," he mutters to himself. He casts the vote.

Okay call me crazy here, but I suspect Exmond less now. The Mojo murder seems like a really obvious ploy to get us to turn on him -- we were all on edge about him, then the guy he was accusing immediately went down? It's too perfect.

I'm still unhappy about the "doctor protect QPQ" thing but that tilts more heavily towards new player than scumtell.

Exmond posted:Are you prepared as I break down the whole "Cop" reveal strategy. I'm not good at writing but I am good at math and stuff. QPQ do you want to comment on this as I trust you the most. Also just a heads up: it's the election IRL where I am today, and I've been working as a campaign intern, and it's been a loving slobberknocker. I'm playing goon D&D this afternoon, then I'm getting blackout drunk. I'll try to lynch-vote before the party starts (whether it's a WE WON party or a WE LOST LET'S ERASE THIS MEMORY WITH ALCOHOL party) but then I might disappear for some time into an abyss of red wine and weeping. I'll try to get all my suspicions etc on the page long before then.

hi guys I'm here, I'm just kinda hung over. I gotta get some Chinese food or something but I'll try to get my thoughts together.

Okay got my sweet and sour pork, got my wontons. THOUGHTS. I am suspicious of: T-rex FOR 1) has been talking very little, not really adding much 2) is acting suspicious as gently caress now the vote's turned on him (all "WOE IS ME" like bminus was) 3) hasn't been hammered yet AGAINST 4) hasn't really said much to incriminate himself either. 5) lack of a hammer could be an intentional scum play? Either they've already voted or they're waiting for somebody else to vote so they get away with cleans hands. Current not voting: me, Exmond. MIXED 6) supported the cop reveal (sort of) Tyrannosaurus posted:No, but if someone claims the cop erroneously then that means one of two things: Exmond FOR 1) quarrelled with Mojo, Mojo died. On further consideration, I don't think "TOO OBVIOUS" holds a massive amount of weight -- you're working under the assumption all scum are Machiavellian geniuses when they're just forum posters like you and me. 2) public call for a doctor protect, which is scummy as hell. AGAINST 3) has been putting in a lot of good scumhunting work today. Solid numbers and strategy, doesn't strike at all like scum behaviour. MIXED 4) supported (and initially had the idea for?) the cop reveal. right now I'm leaning Trex but I could change my mind dammit Trex you ain't no bitch, just fight
