They have seemed to just...lump us together night after night, eh?

That's the only reason I'm coming to your aid Arrows.

Comrade, Grunt and Archer seems to be grouping us together, and their arguments affect both of us, so clearing you in turn clears me you know what I'm trying to say here?

1. Anger needs to be toned down
Now.

2. Personal attacks need to stop. Now.

This is only a game. Treat it as such.

Yeah. I do think you're town though, regardless what you think of me. I just want Lakeside to be threat free, and guys. I understand you think of me and Arrows as scum, and grunt because of Aussie but...

whoever the Mafia is. They must be LAUGHING at all of this because they're skirting by without any suspicion on them.

And evidentally I'm the Don of said mafia.

Which just kicks my luck out the window. Don in all 3 Lakeside games. Really?

They seem to be forgetting occam's razor.

Simplest explaination is usually the truest.

I appear town, therefore I am town. :rolleyes:

Well you claimed Miller, and we haven't heard that excuse from anyone in quite a while.

Or at least I don't remember anyone going "I'M A MILLER NOT SCUM, DON'T LYNCH ME" in ages.

And I just realized Archer's play style is basically I'm rubber and you're glue what I ever you say, bounces off of me and sticks to you.

Like, twenty people claimed Miller in Gotham.


In fact, Arrows did towards the end of it, saying he was town but if investigated his past association with The Joker would say he was scum.

Finally. I am caught up and know of SOME things that can clear confusion.

In all of the Lakeside's, there have been 3 protectors/bodyguards and only 1 Mystic. If the Mystic is back, there logically has to be at least 1 protector of some kind.

Rock's silenced, right? That's the HOUSE-WRECKING HUNK. He roleblocks someone and they are knocked out the next day. I know all too much about the hunk. This might not mean rock's the night killer, but it's boiling.

If I was the protector, I wouldn't jump up to save a single townie either. that's like trading Midnight for all the rest of the people he can protect later in the game.

And sorry it didn't work out, Anti. I personally believe Grunt is STILL town, but he needs to work with us.

Well if the guard was town aligned, maybe he'd speak up to save a townie.
Really, you're trying to out ANOTHER protector?

NO he wouldn't speak up.
1. It would be insane to out oneself as a protector - guess who gets killed?
2. How would the bodyguard have ANY idea if MNN/Arrows was town? I had no idea about nZane's alignment, but I went to protect him. Of course then I got bribed into protecting someone who came up NON-TOWN. You.

Assuming Midnight's the don based on him coming up town is so ****ing stupid, there's no point being an investigator if that's going to be your reasoning.
Wow you really missed the whole other point of that investigation - for some reason he couldn't possibly get a hint at the role. Why would that be the case for a gunsmith? It wouldn't. Something's up. Combined with MNN using his ability twice when he was supposed to be busdriven and roleblocked.

You're right, it is.

However.

No mod. NO MOD. EVER.

Would blatantly say

"This person's role PM isn't the color he says it is."

If that ever happens, the person responsible needs to be banned from ever modding another game of mafia. That's how low of a shot that'd be on the entire game.

You mistook your PM. I'm not denying anything you got, I'm saying you're misreading that bit. My PM IS in blue.
No it wouldn't say that quote, and no one's saying it did. Your logic is off though. Do you really think it's all that different from say, in Gotham I'd said "I'm Bruce Wayne aka Batman, Gotham Aligned Caped Crusader, and then someone's investigation flags me as Non-Town. That says that I'm blatantly lying. Should I scream bloody murder?

Most scum aren't supposed to be immune to investigation. That's the whole bloody point of the role!

I dunno, the Bodyguard thing seems fishy, even fishier that no one has come up to say 'hey I'm the dude guarding him and I'm a good guy' seeing as Nick stirs up some good discussion. As he says, he is a strong player which is good for town if he is town and bad for town if not.
Again, how would the bodyguard know MNN's alignment? There's no way at all that could be the case unless he's a mafia bodyguard.

Dammit, I'd multi quoted a load of interesting posts and then copied instead of pasted the last one I was quoting. Nooooo
Do you not use the Multi-Quote button?

Dodgy business with Grunt, but I still can't shake the feeling Antithesis is scum. He didn't notice anything in his role that would suggest being a miller or coming up opposite alignment. It does make sense being the evil Mayor's widdow, but still.. seems suspicious to me.
Indeed.

Because...Midnight came up town? OH, it's that magical other thing that you are either lying about or don't understand on MINE, that makes you think he's scum.

Don't get me wrong, I think Nick's scum. I just know you're not exactly playing your best here, because you're over looking something ****ing obvious. I don't think you're scum. I think you just missed something that you need to realize.
Again, I think you missed the other half of his role. No one's trying to say "He came up town so he must be scum", Archer is saying "I couldn't get any sort of hint to his role, which doesn't fit since he's said he's a gunsmith".

I don't know. I assumed it was flavor, but it very well may not have been. Nobody stepped forward about it, but..yea. No clue.
Once more, how do people think I survived so long in SWM2? I kept my mouth shut! I saved nZane's ass time and again, and we WON. Why do so many people think it'd be a great idea for protectors to out themselves, especially this early? ALL it does is leave them exposed for night kills.


The second You think You might come up non-town, You claim miller.
That sounds familiar. Same with the "I-have-a-super-complex-role."
Indeed, I'm not sure I've ever seen Arrows play otherwise.

I find it weird that no one has stepped up to say "It was me guys". If the bodyguard was a town player, they'd want to help clear up the confusion, no?
NO! That would be suicide. Does no one see that? I'm fairly certain someone tried to kill me last night just because I protected *once*. It's Scum 101 to kill ooff protectors so you can get to the "juicy" townies.

So because Arrows claimed He's a miller, the suspicion should be lifted off of Him? That's crazy. I thought you were an experienced player. Why would you say that? That's got me, really confused.

Person a: my investigation says you're not with the town!
Person b: oh! that's cause i'm a miller.
Person a: oh, cheers! sorry!

Mmkno.
Back to making sense.

I do think Arrows was right with Anti, though. We need to get him to target someone without an ability.

See how that works.
I'd volunteer, but does that mean that anyone who tries to kill him would in turn kill me?
Maybe, it seems like a sacrificial lamb type thing. I was personally worried about my character though, I'm not sure if I'd hold up in the particular circumstances (which this game seems to be built on).

If I was the protector, I wouldn't jump up to save a single townie either. that's like trading Midnight for all the rest of the people he can protect later in the game.
Thank you! It's good to know I'm not the only one who understands (of course the actual protectors clearly understand too, as they have not come out!)

He is saying he was SPECIFICALLY TOLD I lied about my role color, on top of other things. That, ain't a cop. That, is a SCUM COP. Of course, I don't think he can do that either.

I think HE, was their sacrifice, to put me and Nick out of this game. You want to tell me the mods gave someone a role where they tell them everything you lie about?

I THINK I remember seeing a role somewhere [maybe mafiascum? Not sure] called Lie Detector, or something to that effect. Basic premise was the player could take a post from the previous day phase and ask if the person that posted it was lying or not. Maybe it's that?

He claims he got told a LOT more, but couldn't get told ANYTHING about MNN. Thus, no way it's that.

He's absolutely positively sure he, and he alone, is a GOD. He can find out EVERYTHING.

He's convinced his role is perfect and that he is mega amazing townie man. So, no.

I even tried to offer the solution when he claimed something about my role color at first, that he could in fact have gotten that. As a miller, coming up non town, BLUE, would be a weird color for my role to come up. Thus, it'd be weird, and it'd get the comment.

He believes he was told specifically I have scum colors, and that my role isn't anything like what I suggest. So, he got told me role, my role pm color, and everything? Bull.

Yeah, it'd be really nice if Archer could lay out what he was told in complete layman's terms because I really wasn't that clear on what he actually got told. It all seemed very frantic.

A nice, clear "I was told X, Y and Z" rather than "SCUM!SCUM!SCUM! I was told he is SCUM!" would definitely help at this point. Just the facts, without any added bias from his own opinion.

He says I can convince(this wasn't the word he used..can't remember it exactly), people of things. If anything, I'd have to guess that's the vote manip. I even told him I'd be willing to give it a shot and see if that works come lynching time. Hell, for all I know, I have one. *Shrugs* I don't think I hinted at that, but eh.

He was told I lied about my role color. I sincerely doubt any role would ever blatantly get told that. Period.

Yes. As it's been said, it's called a lie detector and we saw one recently (although I believe they died before they got a chance to be useful). If they asked a Yes/No question and got an answer, they could ask the mods if it was a truthful response or not.

But that's not what's going on here. Right now I'm spent on it because you keep twisting the situation making it into 5 different claims at once (for instance, never once did he say he was a God :P), and I'll give you that he has been a bit jumbled (understandable, given his inexperience).

My vote stays where it is for now.

By the way, care to tell me exactly why you think it'd be a great idea for a protector to out himself?

That however I think is a bit strong. There's a lot of active players we've heard nothing from so far, and I think Archer could be a benefit to the town if a bit more forthcoming. Please Anti and Grunt I think bare more thinking about. Saying that every day so far has been Arrows & MNN. If they're not scum trying to keep the town distracted, the scum are using them to keep us distracted.

I'd try to step up and get some order going on but since I haven't yet been accused of being scum (it'll probably happen tomorrow if this pattern holds up) then I guess I'm not qualified to do so.

I'm not moving my vote just now but to be honest, at this point I'm not even going to try to work out what's going on. I'm tired and just making sure I don't get left behind. I think I've spotted a few solid townies but it's so hard to tell with so many posts of people angrily defending themselves and people badly accusing people. Concise, clear and with a pointy point.

Do you have an explanation for why MNN would be able to get results twice now when others haven't been able to in the same situations?

nZane says he was roleblocked on Night 1, but MNN was able to get a result even though he was targeted by the same player that blocked nZane.

MNN was bus driven on Night 1 but claims to have recieved his intended result. Anti was bus driven Night 2 and was unable to do what he intended.

I don't see an easy way to square this with MNN being town. It would appear that either MNN is lying about his role, or multiple people are lying to get him lynched. I wonder if MNN is still a fan of Occam's Razor in this situation.

Why are you trying to frame anything I say in the scummiest light possible?

If you think I am scum, vote for me, and make your argument as to why. If you just wanna try to raise doubts without attaching a vote to your name, then I'll call that scummy behavior.

Its easy to push a lynch. Its another to push for a lynch and vote for it, and then have to explain why, after I am dead, it will say Lakeside Aligned.

As to your points
1) 3 (and if you believe MNN) 4 people have already outed themselves as investigators or weaponsmiths. So has a watcher, busdrivers, roleblocker, etc.

The town will win this game when people share info. This will require some people to help the town make sense of what's going.

Maybe you want everyone to be in the dark, maybe that benefits you for reasons I'd doubt you would want to explain, but me, I'd like to know what the hell is going on.

2) What I was saying, while trying to not say anyone was scum, was perhaps there is one person out there that could shed light on the burly guard situation, which may also confirm who targeted whom and what results they did, or didn't receive, for night 1.

I'm not saying that he ISN'T scum, I'm saying that I'd like some more clear information from Archer. I don't like the way that he attacks anyone who disagrees with him and then starts calling them scum too.

Occam's Razor works against this as well with the idea that MNN sacrificed Aussie to get golded as town.

Do you have an explanation for why MNN would be able to get results twice now when others haven't been able to in the same situations?

nZane says he was roleblocked on Night 1, but MNN was able to get a result even though he was targeted by the same player that blocked nZane.

It'd be far too much work for me to get all of that rolling from the get-go. I said it once, I'll say it again. I RNGed. Aussie's number came up twice. I also wanted some form of revenge from Gotham. So I rolled with it as my gut and with that luck, he decides to just plainly give up, and I was shocked to see it happen. Mainly since it was gut, but the fact that he wasn't doing anything before he revealed his Lost Soul/undead to us, he came in, reflected all our comments back at us, and left without a good defense.

I have NO clue how to explain what's going on with MNN. I'm not exactly believing him to be town at the moment. I'm just not sure there aren't better targets in front of us.

Focusing all this attention on me is just letting the Mafia groups skirt right under our radars you know.

I don't really buy the sacrificing Aussie theory. It just seems like an unneccesary play at that point.

So I think it's most likely that he found out Aussie like he claims. Though at the time I thought he was pushing for the lynch much harder than he would if it was just a gut feeling.

But either way it doesn't affect whether he's scum or not.

I have NO clue how to explain what's going on with MNN. I'm not exactly believing him to be town at the moment. I'm just not sure there aren't better targets in front of us.

In my experience scum that comes up town to an investigation is typically a really good target. I think I'd need to hear a solid theory to think someone else is a better target right now.

But I'm fine with giving it time to see if someone can/will make such a case.

Moe Hunter

Why are you trying to frame anything I say in the scummiest light possible?
I dunno, something about the way you say scummy things...

If you think I am scum, vote for me, and make your argument as to why. If you just wanna try to raise doubts without attaching a vote to your name, then I'll call that scummy behavior.
How quickly you forget yesterday, when I was the first to vote on you, and we had you getting pretty close to a lynch.

As to your points
1) 3 (and if you believe MNN) 4 people have already outed themselves as investigators or weaponsmiths. So has a watcher, busdrivers, roleblocker, etc.

The town will win this game when people share info. This will require some people to help the town make sense of what's going.
The only way it's safe for those people to be open, is that the protectors remain hidden. Guess what happens when the protectors come out too?
*Mafia kills protectors
*Mafia kills the now uunprotected trackers, watchers, etc

Maybe you want everyone to be in the dark, maybe that benefits you for reasons I'd doubt you would want to explain, but me, I'd like to know what the hell is going on.
I'm sure you've played mafia before. Let's take it to the extreme. If everyone says everything on Day 1, we don't HAVE a game. Secondly, this game is designed to be dark. Thirdly, guess what? I am one of the people being open! I've shared all the useful info I have.

The "bouncer" (if he's town) admitting who he is only exposes him. He has no idea if his target is town or not.

2) What I was saying, while trying to not say anyone was scum, was perhaps there is one person out there that could shed light on the burly guard situation, which may also confirm who targeted whom and what results they did, or didn't receive, for night 1.
I can't imagine that he would have received anything particularly revealing. He might be able to tell who targetted who (maybe) but certainly wouldn't share their results.

There is that. If Grunt is being honest, his Busdriving, then his targetes switch places, which would seem to confirm what Aik said... he targeted MMN night 1 but got Arrows.

What night did Archer investigate Arrows and what niight did he investigate MNN?
Really? Keep up. He posted that he targetted Arrows both times but obviously targetted MNN on Night 1 instead due to the busdriver.

If I share their name, it'd be to vote for them. Regardless of my actual result, I got a pretty long PM last night (not all pertaining to my own actions) and I'd be willing to lynch them to test myself and obviously because I believe their behavior warrants such action (in my opinion).

You have numerous accounts from people which diametrically oppose each other. Now, maybe the mods screwed up, or maybe multiple parties are lying. That's right, it is entirely possible that learning the truth here might expose multiple scum.. You don't want to vote on me, and you don't want to get to the truth about Comrade/ Archer /Grunt/MNN/Arrows.

Well what do you want to do, eat some doughnuts?

I am here to play and win. Not log in once a day to post sniping comments because somebody hurt my feelings months ago and now I wana get even.

WAH WAH WAH

I can't imagine that he would have received anything particularly revealing. He might be able to tell who targetted who (maybe) but certainly wouldn't share their results.


And of course the game is structured entirely around what you can imagine. If you don't wanna know whats going on, fine, go eat your doughnuts and let townies who want to win discuss things.



Really? Keep up. He posted that he targetted Arrows both times but obviously targetted MNN on Night 1 instead due to the busdriver.

It can't be any lamer than

1) be accussed of being something I'm not

2) have people willingly interfere when I try to prove my role to others

3) Have the guy who accussed me of being what I am not suddenly say he doesn'tw ant to confirm someone as being town aligned

4) have to deal with someone being rude for no damn reason whatsoever


As far as I am concerned, if thats how its gonna be, then I'm done with this game, and I won't play any ones in the future if they are gonna be like this.

You had ZERO problems outing yourself as an investigator to claim I was scum. But now you won't tell the town who it is you've found to be town aligned...

that is highly suspect. And if it requires me talking about modkills to point that out, to the degree people understand how frustrating it is, then that is what I have to do.

I can't be ****ed reading up on most of this, because some attitudes in general are starting to piss me off. I'll just pick out one thing (not a personal attack, it is completely game relevant):

yeah right. you were giving him an excuse to cover up for the results.

Whether you're right or not, I've made it pretty damn clear what I thought he was and said repeatedly (or at least hinted) as to why I thought that was, as I know midnight's a crafty one when it comes to hints. I'm not just going to sit here and have you say that my intuition, however wrong it was, was fictional, because if you don't have the capacity to realise that's not the case then I'm really struggling to tolerate playing alongside you.

I'll catch up sort of kind of in 12ish hours time when the phase is probably over. I think Gruntmark is likely leading the undead but I don't see what we can do info-wise beyond just going for a lynch, then there's Arrows who well...came up non town, again however nothing can come of it apart from a straight up lynch. Archer surely has to be bull****ting about something we just don't know what, and midnight I'm not so sure about now but still don't think we should lynch him.

So uh vote: Gruntmark, seems like the best option of the three in terms of just going all out risk=reward etc, will see what's going on when I get back on and change if neccessary I spose. Ciao.

Which guy was this? I'd be happy to explain why I want to lynch the guy if you'll tell me which it is. LOTS have pushed MNN.I was specifically referring to Archer, but looking at that updated vote count, you've apparently got a vote on both him and Grunt, so I may have been mistaken. Between driving three hours to a wedding yesterday, going through the wedding and the much more fun reception, the late night at the hotel, the lack of sleep at said hotel, and the three hour drive back today, I'm a bit fried. Don't mind me. :p

Oh, and today's invention is going to be a fun one! :D

Yeah, thanks for that.

I didn't see any real benefit to revealing that you had given me something. I'm not even sure what it does exactly. But if the name is any indication, it should be useful.

Ah. I pushed on Archer because of the way he claims his ability to be uber-godly-townie-perfection. An investigator who gets told someone's lying about stuff? Bull. Not really trying to aid or defend MNN, as I'm fairly certain he's lying somewhere. Just wanted to push Archer because I, personally, feel like he's lying through his teeth.

Good and understood.

Because I dont know the rest with Aussie either. If anyone townie would come get a look at me or something, they would see a fairly normal looking dude. Though maybe with a silly pointed hat and robe.

But certainly not a brain starved undead. Especially one that chants, which would be even more silly than a pointed hat and robe.

And seeing as how the last guy appeared to have to die to even become a zombie, I dont think its a stretch to say I, who havent died, am not currently a zombie.

Just want to make this point...


It's still early in the game, Arrows. I'm not too confident about Archer myself, but again I think he might just be noobish and some of his words didn't come out quite like he intended. Its suspicious, but hardly damning. We have plenty of night phases left to prove he's lying.

Meanwhile, with MNN, we've CAUGHT him lying TWICE. How many nights are we going to keep letting him run around? Catching a person in a lie once is bad enough, but when you've caught them twice.... I quote the "great" George W. Bush:

"Fool me- fool me once, shame on you... Fool me.... you can't get fooled again!"

Or something like that. Point is, do we need to keep catching him in lies? Will the third time actually be the charm, or should we aim for a baker's dozen?

Joke Response: You have to keep me, it makes compelling television. I put asses in seats.

Actual Response: You may have thought you caught me in lies, but I received the results as expected no matter what you may think, and while you think I'm scummy.

Archer's results found me as town, and why he couldn't get more info on me? I don't know. But if you decide to hang me from the gallows. You'll see I'm Lakeside aligned, and losing me will be a powerful blow to the town.

This reminds me of The Who song.

I can't explain the being able to get my results even though being targeted by Comrade, but is there any confirmation that Grunt's busdriving would prevent everyone from targeting someone?

I mean, we don't know if TBP targeted someone or not and if they got results back, and if they did target someone, what if they targeted Lost like how blackphoenix did? That would prevent Anti from buying protection, since the person he'd hire wasn't there.

And Arrows targeted no one, so that would potentially not cause a changing of targets.

Considering how unsure Gold was about Derek, with the poem and all, that's an interesting point. I mean, he did say that it didn't seem right, right? That it didn't seem to fit? I think this might be a good avenue to explore.

Maybe?

I was hoping he would clarify whether he had targeted someone last night or not, but unfortunately that hasn't been the case yet.

So, TBP, if you could let us know whether or not you targeted someone last night, it would be helpful.

They came up Lakeside aligned. However, I'm not going to share their name without reason.

If I share their name, it'd be to vote for them. Regardless of my actual result, I got a pretty long PM last night (not all pertaining to my own actions) and I'd be willing to lynch them to test myself and obviously because I believe their behavior warrants such action (in my opinion).

Well, now that it's not just Anti's will pushing me, I don't have to stand by principal alone now...

I targeted Derek_B. When I got to him, he was sitting alone in his house. He "seemed normal enough".

Something about the actual text made me worry, and as I said, I have a strong feeling Derek is pulling something with his "Yea, the mods ok'd this random poem, etc." shtick.

So... There... Happy? I don't care... :p

There's still enough time in this phase to get more answers, before we finalize our votes. Something about this doesn't seem right, and since we have an opportunity, I figured it'd be a good time to look into it.

There's a lot of names being thrown out, and a lot of different directions to go in, and not as much information coming in. For us townies who don't get a night time PM, and play this game totally dark, the best way to get more info is to apply a little pressure. I don't want to send Derek to the gallows without that chance at info, I want to know why he seemed suspicious last night.

So long as the vote total is kept within reason, we can figure out which direction we wish to go in, once we have a more substancial table of evidence. Besides "I am not"/"Yes you are!" dialect. That's all.

And I just realized Archer's play style is basically I'm rubber and you're glue what I ever you say, bounces off of me and sticks to you.

Lol!

I THINK I remember seeing a role somewhere [maybe mafiascum? Not sure] called Lie Detector, or something to that effect. Basic premise was the player could take a post from the previous day phase and ask if the person that posted it was lying or not. Maybe it's that?

Badass concept.

He says I can convince(this wasn't the word he used..can't remember it exactly), people of things. If anything, I'd have to guess that's the vote manip. I even told him I'd be willing to give it a shot and see if that works come lynching time. Hell, for all I know, I have one. *Shrugs* I don't think I hinted at that, but eh.

He was told I lied about my role color. I sincerely doubt any role would ever blatantly get told that. Period.

*clears throat* is that You doing the whole I-have-a-crazy-complex-role thing again? You're a miller who manipulates votes and has to talk lots to get ANOTHER ability at night?

..Hm.

And some pretty good players too. Or at least more experienced than I. I'm actually surprised some people are still alive today. Scum is either not doing well or planning for epic surprise buttsex. I'm hoping the former.

Also I have a rough list of Day 1 (by aik I believe), should I post it or does everyone have Day 1 events down?

This is what I meant when I said a lot of directions, and not a whole lot of info. This isn't a "Let's march Derek to the gallows now!" vote. Not by a long shot. We've discussed Arrows, we've discussed MNN, we've discussed Anti, and Moe, and Grunt, and Gold mentioned Derek being a bit suspicious. I wanted to explore why, that's all.

I'm not asking for him to log in and roleclaim at the chance he's gonna get himself offed the next night, but I don't know anything outside of this thread. The more info I can get here, the better I can help Lakeside win. That's my perspective on it all. I even stopped coming up with bizarre theories, because, right or wrong, they probably do more harm than good. But with only this info, I'm left to conjecture on what may or may not be happening.

I can understand why it's seen as bad logic, but from where I sit, having witnessed how quickly a day can go in Gotham, if I have an opportunity to find something out, I want to take the chance. That's all.

Exactly. Its not just the MJ/Anti/Derek thing

but the Archer/Aik/Arrows/Comrade/Grunt/MNN thing.

If one side is being honest, then that means the other side almost completely has to be scum. I won't say its absolutely certain because people may be misrepresenting or over-representing their roles (ala Cappyboy in SW 2).

But this stuff has become so locked in the town HAS TO DECIDE SOMETHING TO MOVE FORWARD

otherwise you are gonna deadlock and waste more time arguing after this.

Somebody, quite possibly even a townie, has to die so that the five of you who actually paid attention can progress.

In that regard, I am at the point that I don't care if you lynch me. By all means, kill me. I am done with being mocked for telling the truth and trying to help people. I am only in the game now because Astil asked that I stay. But I don't give a **** about finishing the game or even that the town wins anymore so much as its proven that I told the truth.

So, for the people who don't understand what they should do, I'll make it easy.

Lynch me.

When it says I am Lakeside aligned, you'll know that I was not what MJ claimed.

This can only possibly mean three things

1) I was framed night 1. Possible but out of 40 people, unlikely. Though I have been framed before... in Cartoon Chaos

2) MJ is a naive investigator and his results are actually the reverse of what they should be, meaning Derek is actually Non Town Aligned.

3) MJ, who has argued strongly that he doubts he is anything but a straight up, legit investigator, lied.


Not only will you have those options, but you will also have a list of folks who voted to lynch a townie.

You'll have Moe hunter who bothered to spend 10 minutes everyday to log in and say I am scummy.

You'll have Gruntmark, busdriving me on a night when I was trying to help prove my townieness.


You'll have plenty of options on where to go and whom to pursue, and I'll have the satisfaction of knowing the one thing even more important to me than winning these games, and thats proving that I was right.

I think Anti's right, we need to move forward. He's offering himself up (and I know the frustration) and as he pointed out, a lot can be learned from his death. If he comes up Lakeside, MJ looks suspicious, Moe looks like he was pushing hard for townie death, and Grunt was sabotaging his one chance to prove his towniness

And of course the game is structured entirely around what you can imagine. If you don't wanna know whats going on, fine, go eat your doughnuts and let townies who want to win discuss things.
Again with the dougnuts... Do I have some alter-ego I'm not aware of?

Oh my god, lets jump on Anti for asking a question. You gonna make remarks for everyone who asks a question? No. Then stop acting like a little bitch.
No, I'm going to point out that things you've asked have already been answered, recently and succinctly. For someone playing the ever vigilant townie you did seem to miss a rather pertinent post.


I think Anti's "If you don't believe me and do everything in your power to clear me I'll punch you" clears him as a townie at least...
Normally I'd agree, and it is quite possible. Although I am reminded of a very early game where someone (The Aussie or Tristram I think?) swore on the bible and their left nut that they were town... and ended up scum.

Next up on my agenda, abilities and skills. My poem, as delightful as it was, was given to me by a fellow player. Presumably one who trusts me (and is therefore mad) enough to not reveal any information I have about them. As information is the most valuable tool we have and preserving our means of getting it is one of the most important things we can do in this game, I'm not going to tell you anything about how I got it. I think I know who it came from but I'm not going to speculate openly about who it is. However, since I know everyone loves clues... I believe the person who it is from is NOT voting for me right now. :)
Hint Towards Info Without Exposing Anyone: Check

And lastly, apparently I "seemed normal enough" to come up town (I think?) in MJD's investigation last night. Now with the much dreaded and often maligned "HE SHOWS UP TOWN" finger of suspicion pointed squarely at me, I'm getting pressured for information. I gave you the information I felt comfortable giving. I shared the important stuff I had the moment I knew I was able to and didn't out a useful source of info in the process. If that's scummy then vote for me... but at least remember that the first guy to lay a vote down on me is the one squirming the most in the noose even now, who seems desperate to convince us that our investigators are giving us incorrect results.

The personal thing. I seem to recall some game.. maybe the GDS one. I said something and I believe you took offense. And now you want to reciprocate behind the veneer of scum hunting. Your petty little one upsmanship like calling me out for asking a question (who else have you called out for that?) shows you are focused on me. I am hardly the first person to ask someone to repeat themselves this game, but you are going to mock me for it.. why? It doesn't have any relation to my alignment, it is as I have characterized, petty bull****.

To intimate that I am scum for asking a question is fallacious. To argue that asking a question means that I am somehow not a "vigilant townie" is to contend that people who don't ask questions somehow are more townie than those that do, which is a spurious claim, since it is by the process of asking questions that one can hopefully arrive at a better understanding of what is going on.

You'll contend that I don't care about the details enough to remember them, if that were true, why then would I still somehow care enough to even ask about them?

The entire argument is silly, but if its what you are hinging your vote on, by all means keep bringing it up. Such facile justifications will look suspicious once my alignment is certified.

Now, of course I could be mistaken, and the snide little remarks may not have anything to do with a past game, they may only be related to this one. If that is the case, then I again ask, why do you continually insist that I am scum without making any sustained argument to back up the assertion?


You'll say that MJ investigated me and I came up non town. And I'll point out that you did not once mention anything about the exchange between MJ and myself, nor did you comment on MJ saying that he now believes Derek is suspicious. You reply to me, absent of anything else that happened in the thread, focused entirely on my failings as a player for asking a question and my somehow scummy behavior that you won't actually present an argument for.

This is beyond silly. And if provocation is the only way you have of hunting scum or proving your hunches, it is an worthless tactic that is only going to result in exposing your own ineptitude.

Of course, then again, maybe your real goal is just to get me out of the game, and not for personal reasons, but for game reasons. Such that when it becomes painfully clear that you were wrong, your motives can then come into question. Of course, if your current argument is any indication, once that moment arrives you will find yourself woefully inadequate in the task of convincing anyone of anything.


Now, this is not to say that I know you are scum. I know no such thing. I do know, just based on my experience in the game, that you are stretching. Maybe you've become a bit too focused on one person (happens to all of us sometimes) or maybe you have an ulterior motive. In either case this is the first time I've felt as though someone is actually trying to goad me. Your dispassionate little jibes, devoid of any logical support, strike me as being manufactured for the purpose of making me angry. And since you have yet to stick around to argue in media res as the phrase goes, I believe all your posts are shallow and contrived. A vigilant townie would try better.

Don't you agree?

First of all, I honestly don't remember any personal issues from previous games. Maybe you had a bad attitude that I wasn't a fan of? It's possible, though I would think that more of Arrows and THT. If I have time tomorrow I might go and see if I can find out just to clarify.

I'm the multi-quoter. Your question happened to be in amongst a bunch of other stuff you said which I felt the need to reply to. Simple as that.

I'm focused on you because you came up scum, and like you've said, the town needs to make a decision. You also begged me to vote for you today. So I've laid my vote on you because as far as I'm concerned, it's clear. Maybe you're a miller, but you've made no claims to that.

I don't believe it matters if MJD thinks that Derek shouldn't have received a poem based on what his investigation showed. I don't think that him investigating should tell him everything that happened to his target (that would be a watcher/tracker's role).

I really want to stay out of all the MNN/Arrows BS. Maybe one or both or neither of them are scum. That extends to Gruntmark and The Archer to some extent. Way too convoluted and we're not going to find out anything more in this dayphase to help us with any of them IMO.

As for me being left with no one believing me? I've been there already, in Real World Chaos. With a *much* more powerful role than I have this time.

If you've paid much attention to my townie games in the past, you should be aware that I don't kick in to gear properly until a fair ways in. Then I can start MQM Driving scum to the gallows with impunity. Until then, I can only go on the most direct information available. You came up scum to an investigation, and you roleblocked me and bribed me into protecting you, which sounds like a scummy power to me. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong, and I'll deal with it and move on.

You (along with several others, which you seem to have forgotten I mentioned) can keep suggesting that protectors come out and jump around for the mafia to take them out, and insist that all our investigators are insane or naive or any number of things. I'll go eat some doughnuts.... Hey, wait a minute! I still don't know where *that* came from!

Sorry Harley, you want out and I can understand why. As you said hopefully it will get us some more info.

I don't know why the tone of the mafia games I've been in lately have changed so much, it just seems everyone is losing focus that this is supposed to be fun.

Derek receives a poem and a townie investigation result and is voted on? Anti receives a scum investigation result and whines like a baby over a GAME (my interpretation of it, at least) and isn't voted on as much? Something not quite right here.

I still don't trust MNN or Arrows at this point (MNN a lot less than Arrows, though), but let's deal with this other issue first.

Change vote: Antithesis

Let me explain why I maybe come across as 'whiny"

In the SW2 game, several people, all of whom are highly respected, hammered me for my ego, and my in your face style.

This is not even going into my past disagreements with Derek, Outlaw and otehrs who said I am too critical, too negative about people and things that go in these games.

So, I am cognizant, maybe more so than anyone else who plays these games, about what I say and how I treat people. Lately I've made a conscious effort to try to be more civil, though sometimes I fail, still. I'd like people to think that I am not a complete *******.


Now, here we have this game, where there are no detailed write ups. There is nothing I can point to to prove what i say, and apparently I've come up scum in an investigation.

I know I am town aligned, but there isn't many resources open to em to prove it. I tried to set something up with bear so someone else could see how my role worked, and maybe confirm if it really says I "bribe" people. And hell, maybe one of the other investigators will target me and confirm what I already know.

Does this happen? Noooo, I get busdriven because somebody can't be bothered to read the thread.

very well, we all miss stuff. But at the same time I am being attacked, not just on my alignment, I think, but also petty stuff.

I sincerely feel like I was being provoked... that is, provoked into acting a way people have asked that I not do.

So, I get frustrated. I feel like I am in a no win situation, and whatever I try to do to improve my position in the game is thwarted by others... maybe by accident, maybe on purpose.

At this point the game isn't any fun for me. Then you add in MJ saying he wasn't going to talk about his latest investigation, someone he said he found town aligned and therefore could possibly clear from suspicion for the time being and he's not going to share that.

Again, maybe this is all just a series of coincidences. Maybe if I wasn't so busy trying to prove myself I could be more effective on the MNN/Arrows/Archer deal. But for me its gotten to the point where I say, why bother. If I ask questions about that situation I get mocked for it too.

Woe is me right? Yeah I know. But there is something to be said about the quality of a person that they'll kick a man when he's down. And no, I don't eman i expect anyone to believe me when i say I'm town aligned, but Jesus Christ, why is it seemingly so many people have to work against me. Especially when all I wanted to do is tell the truth and help the town.

You can call it whiny, but I don't see why I should want to play when it isn't fun.

And keep in mind, From VG to Cartoon Chaos to the last game, Gotham. I never gave up, even when I was scum and everyone knew it. I'd lie, argue, yell sometimes.

So if you think I am whiny, know that it isn't because I am scum and I'm upset that I got caught, its because I am town, and I am getting kicked around while people won't let me catch a break.

Thats why I thank you for voting for me. Truly, you'll be putting me out of my misery.

Though at this point, I'm not sure there's anything more to add to the discussion...actually, I think there's one thing. But before I address the Archer.

Anti, I can't figure out if you're roleplaying or are genuinely frustrated. If it's the latter, please take a step back from the game and just calm down. We're prone to overreacting sometimes; I know I did a few times in Gotham mafia. It happens. I DO think that...when you're under suspicion, you're going to be targeted at some well-intentioned townies. It's bound to happen to everyone at some point or another. So again, just take a step back and relax. I remember a few days after Gotham mafia ended, I realized I grossly over-reacted to a few things in the game. So again, just take a step back, relax, and remember to try and have fun. :)

Finally,


To the Archer,

If you happen to read this today (and I hope you do), I humbly request the following of you:

1.) PLEASE take the time to paraphrase the information you received in your last night PM. Be as specific as possible, and DO NO MORE, NO LESS!

2.) If you wish to speculate about your PM results, please do so in a following paragraph.

3.) Finally, I think your...aggressive enthusiasm is...without malicious intent; you mean well and want to do good. However, this isn't a police drama. No matter what happens, no one is going to

Be aware that this request was not intended in a condescending manner if you interpreted it as such. Latah.

will get to everything, but first i want to respond to this.

A few things bugged me whilst catching up. Such as people saying PM's aren't specific enough...now I don't get one myself but surely the fact that you KNOW that part about you makes it so much more helpful than the best bigger writeups which are vague and so on? It has pros and cons and adds a new element but some people blaming the mods is just silly.

Oh and I refuse to vote on Midnight, because the thing I think he's hinting was such a random realisation that I really want it to be true, lol. I'd be more inclined to go for an Arrows lynch atm after the investigation result...assuming Midnight's the don based on him coming up town is so ****ing stupid, there's no point being an investigator if that's going to be your reasoning.

You're just being ignorant, seriously. Going entirely off an assumption...that assumption being that because someone came up town, they are not. So forgive me for being incredulous. And the way you push it, the trying to laugh in people's faces because you're so certain they're scum no matter what, is something I've dabbled with in the past. And you just come off looking like a twat.

As for derek's poem...it looks interesting but it's kinda vague. How and when did you get it?

I can't be ****ed reading up on most of this, because some attitudes in general are starting to piss me off. I'll just pick out one thing (not a personal attack, it is completely game relevant):



Whether you're right or not, I've made it pretty damn clear what I thought he was and said repeatedly (or at least hinted) as to why I thought that was, as I know midnight's a crafty one when it comes to hints. I'm not just going to sit here and have you say that my intuition, however wrong it was, was fictional, because if you don't have the capacity to realise that's not the case then I'm really struggling to tolerate playing alongside you.

I'll catch up sort of kind of in 12ish hours time when the phase is probably over. I think Gruntmark is likely leading the undead but I don't see what we can do info-wise beyond just going for a lynch, then there's Arrows who well...came up non town, again however nothing can come of it apart from a straight up lynch. Archer surely has to be bull****ting about something we just don't know what, and midnight I'm not so sure about now but still don't think we should lynch him.

So uh vote: Gruntmark, seems like the best option of the three in terms of just going all out risk=reward etc, will see what's going on when I get back on and change if neccessary I spose. Ciao.

you started the personal attacks. it is in there in the thread. i dont know who you think you are, but i will not sit by and be talked down to by you or anyone else. i gave up my information. just because arrows and midnight and you want to try and spin it other ways i am ignorant and stupid? i stated the reasons for what i said. but i will go back and do it again real slow for some of you so that maybe you can understand. k?

I think we should have done it yesterday, but then Golden lived, and I can only assume it is because he is right, and non-town aligned did not wish to tip his hand.

Vote: Antithesis

that's my vote, unless some one can tell me who protected Golden, because I think his directly outing Anti as no-town is what saved him. as if he said it and then turned up dead would be almost admission of guilt.

if Anti's not scum, then if i were mafia I would have offed Golden to make Anti look scum. So was Golden being protected? if not then I think and Anti lynch is our best bet to base line Golden.

That being said, if nick isn't scum, and he believes Arrows is town then why is he constantly running up his post count?

I have to believe based on his actions that Nick can't be on the same side as Arrows. but Nick the one who called out Aussie, who was not town alligned, and did turn to a zombie which we also lynched. So I am willing to let Nick and arrows hand around another night, and try to find out one more time what is up with the Nick, Arrow, Shape triangle.

/nod, on several accounts. I can see why you were begging to be lynched Day 1.

So, with you having a hunch on who's scum, and your vote on MNN, do you feel that is the way to go? Anti can have his issues, but mine is the only vote on him. MNN is at least halfway to the gallows.

Moe, to be honest I am just trying to get a lynch completed before time expires on us. In this game I don't trust anyone. I don't care who gets lynched in the long run b/c to be sure of what anyone is saying is 100% is to lynch them and hope it is enough detail to answer some unanswered questions.

There is no way to get enough detail on who is who right now. I mean right now I am running around claiming that if you kill me or are involved in killing me you will die whether it be lynch or night murder. How do you know I am not the don? How would you be able to find out? You wouldn't unless you kill me. Would anyone be willing to risk there life and be involved in my murder knowing my claim? Maybe? Chances are slim. I know I wouldn't risk it at this point. Maybe farther into the game. If I was don I would have someone in my group claim an investigation on me and say I came up town aligned and was protecting someone on that night. Risky by the association but chances are it would buy sometime. In this game enough to drastically effect the outcome. Since I have basically claimed what my role since day one I am coming out completely on my role.

You are the Lakeside Aligned Pyrotechnics Specialist.

What this means is I am strapped with BOOM BOOM and if I get killed at night I am taking you with me. It also means that if during the day my heart stops….I go BOOM BOOM! So in other words unless you have nothing else to life for don't **** with me! BOOOM!


So with that being said MNN I have no clue where you stand at all. My vote is on you b/c you currently have the most votes. Do I hope your not town aligned and some wicked sole. Yes. Will I be saddened if your town and we lose you. Not really b/c it helps clear some questions we all have. My thought is and has always been if there is enough doubt and question surrounding you (Going way back to when Taker666 was always townie), you are a distraction and the town suffers from that.

With all this said now I will leave you with one thought.

I have NO clue where Shape came from in regards to this one. I can understand me and MNN being lumped together, because we're kinda depending on each other to be more evidence for our own cases right now. He's praying I'm town, which would disprove Archer, just the same as I'm praying he's town, to do the same thing. It's just looking less and less likely that he is, unfortunately.

Really don't know where Shape fits into this with the exception of him and Archer having their spat. I'd consider that completely unrelated though.

these are the posts dealing with arrows and midnight from me.

first part was switched to midnight's. came up lakeside aligned. but when asked about the hint to their role that i am supposed to get, was told that usually yes, but in this case no for various reasons. what reasons would there be for a a hint not to be given about him being a gunsmith? cant think of one. except that that would blow his story and confirm that he isnt who he says he is.

now onto arrows




i dont know how much of it i can repeat without breaking the rules. but the pm obviously led me to believe that he is full of crap. and that with my ability i can see thru his lies.

i get a hint at role. along with the alignment.



i find it ironic that the only reason i suspected him in the first place was that he was defending you.



that and the result that i got.



which was?

listen the later part of your post makes you come off like a prick. i am not assuming. you can hold out hope that you are right about him if you want. you will be proven wrong.



yours is pretty pointed. that you are silver tongued one. alludes to color. there isnt any doubt in my mind there.

night 1 sent in arrows but midnight was there instead
night 2 sent in arrows he was non lakeside aligned

the part about you being silver tongued and able to sway opiniions

or the part about it being clear that the color you used to convince the others is just another lie ?

several have asked for me to paraphrase my pms. i thought that is what i did. i really think most of the confusion is caused by the twisting and things that those two as well as others have offered. so i will attempt to make it more plain this time.

night one :
tried arrows

first sentence states i was looking for truth.
second one states what i found was different.
third midnightnick is lakeside aligned.

didnt get my clue so i sent a pm and got generally yes but no for various reasons due to waht it would give away.


night 2:
tried arrows again

paraphrasing-continued search this one managed to allude first time, but not this time. ability to sway others with his silver tongue and convince others with his hue, but not you.
clear that arrows is not lakeside aligned.

ANYONE HERE WHO THINKS THE MODS ARE GOING TO TELL SOMEONE THAT MY ROLE COLOR IS SOMETHING OTHER THAN WHAT I CLAIM OR WHAT THE PERSON THEY TELL THIS TO'S IS, RAISE YOUR HANDS.

Depends on the nature of what his role learns. If that what he's supposed to get, or a possibility, then I don't see why he wouldn't. Mods aren't going to change the way a role opperates to cover for lying scum. It all depends on what was decided about the role before the game started.

thanks.

If that's EVER a town role, the game it's in is broken. That's a SCUM COP.

No townie should EVER get a PM that says "This person's role title is red." PERIOD. It should NEVER happen.

I say you're entirely full of ****. There's no way a townie was given that role. That breaks the game entirely, and makes it completely ****ing pointless to play. Sorry, but you're either lying, or wrong about your own ability.

Archer. What you're saying is this.

NO SCUM CAN LIE ABOUT THEIR ROLE, OR ALIGNMENT, BECAUSE YOU SINGLE HANDEDLY ARE A GOD. YOU, AND YOU ALONE, CAN FIND OUT EVERYTHING THERE IS TO KNOW INCLUDING THE ROLE COLOR, ABILITY, AND INVESTIGATION RESULT.

Bull****.

**** it.

Change Vote: The Archer

That's overpowered as sin.

is this normal for arrows? to get bent out of shape like this?

You have alot to learn Archer.

yep there are more out there.

He said we can lynch you OR Midnight.

And Midnight was the one caught in a pair of lies.

correct.

Uhhh.. Isn't that the same role Astil gave Jim Force/IER in the VG mafia?

He could investigate alignment and role titles (based upon a RNG).

thanks.

You want to tell me the mods specifically told someone "Arrows is lying about his ability, and his role color?" I say bull****.

;)

So then that bodyguard was meant for you and I didn't have a bodyguard.

There goes one of Archer's points against me.

no, the bodyguard would have been yours at your house where arrows was. you would have been at arrows.

So it isn't impossible for him to have a role like that.


And, honestly, Archer doesn't seem like the most... experienced player? He seems newish. And a pair of vets are going against him, which really makes me suspicious. Arrows is good enough to defend himself, why does Nick need to jump in?

Maybe to get Arrows not to place his vote back on him.

Still, I think Nick is the best option.

his jumping in is the only reason that i started to look at him. and piece this together.

And I just realized Archer's play style is basically I'm rubber and you're glue what I ever you say, bounces off of me and sticks to you.

:(




midnight you said you check at your house right? i didnt investigate you at your house. i was at arrows. lie one.

comradebot blocked nzane night one. he did you last night. but you still got results? lie 2

Actually that's pretty compelling

Like, twenty people claimed Miller in Gotham.


In fact, Arrows did towards the end of it, saying he was town but if investigated his past association with The Joker would say he was scum.

:rolleyes:

Change Vote: The Archer

He's lying, one way or another.

that was a surprise.

The second You think You might come up non-town, You claim miller.
That sounds familiar. Same with the "I-have-a-super-complex-role."

So because Arrows claimed He's a miller, the suspicion should be lifted off of Him? That's crazy. I thought you were an experienced player. Why would you say that? That's got me, really confused.

Person a: my investigation says you're not with the town!
Person b: oh! that's cause i'm a miller.
Person a: oh, cheers! sorry!

Mmkno.


Moe. Dude.

He is saying he was SPECIFICALLY TOLD I lied about my role color, on top of other things. That, ain't a cop. That, is a SCUM COP. Of course, I don't think he can do that either.

I think HE, was their sacrifice, to put me and Nick out of this game. You want to tell me the mods gave someone a role where they tell them everything you lie about?

I THINK I remember seeing a role somewhere [maybe mafiascum? Not sure] called Lie Detector, or something to that effect. Basic premise was the player could take a post from the previous day phase and ask if the person that posted it was lying or not. Maybe it's that?

He's absolutely positively sure he, and he alone, is a GOD. He can find out EVERYTHING.

He's convinced his role is perfect and that he is mega amazing townie man. So, no.

I even tried to offer the solution when he claimed something about my role color at first, that he could in fact have gotten that. As a miller, coming up non town, BLUE, would be a weird color for my role to come up. Thus, it'd be weird, and it'd get the comment.

He believes he was told specifically I have scum colors, and that my role isn't anything like what I suggest. So, he got told me role, my role pm color, and everything? Bull.

and you know what my pm's have said? oh that is right you are the uber miller townie. and i am the noob.

Yeah, it'd be really nice if Archer could lay out what he was told in complete layman's terms because I really wasn't that clear on what he actually got told. It all seemed very frantic.

A nice, clear "I was told X, Y and Z" rather than "SCUM!SCUM!SCUM! I was told he is SCUM!" would definitely help at this point. Just the facts, without any added bias from his own opinion.

done

Well, maybe if we apply some pressure that information will be forthcoming.

vote:The Archer

pressure for what? i came forward with the results.

He says I can convince(this wasn't the word he used..can't remember it exactly), people of things. If anything, I'd have to guess that's the vote manip. I even told him I'd be willing to give it a shot and see if that works come lynching time. Hell, for all I know, I have one. *Shrugs* I don't think I hinted at that, but eh.

He was told I lied about my role color. I sincerely doubt any role would ever blatantly get told that. Period.

so are you?

Lie Detector would be told if you were lying...Possibly.

Yes. As it's been said, it's called a lie detector and we saw one recently (although I believe they died before they got a chance to be useful). If they asked a Yes/No question and got an answer, they could ask the mods if it was a truthful response or not.

But that's not what's going on here. Right now I'm spent on it because you keep twisting the situation making it into 5 different claims at once (for instance, never once did he say he was a God :P), and I'll give you that he has been a bit jumbled (understandable, given his inexperience).

My vote stays where it is for now.

By the way, care to tell me exactly why you think it'd be a great idea for a protector to out himself?

thanks.

But doesn't a lie detector need to ask a direct question and get a yes / no response?

So they have to work at it and it isn't as easy as all hell for them?

I'm not buying the I'm mega awesome and Arrows/MNN/Shape are all scum that I have dead to rights thing.

I also don't like how gruntmark just says... I'm not a zombie and gets away with it while others are hounded to the death.

Vote: The Archer

for now, but it can move to GM if necessary.

also..

COUGH UP INFO PEOPLE COME ON! AND PLEASE DO IT IN A CLEAR WAY

interesting.

Do you have an explanation for why MNN would be able to get results twice now when others haven't been able to in the same situations?

nZane says he was roleblocked on Night 1, but MNN was able to get a result even though he was targeted by the same player that blocked nZane.

MNN was bus driven on Night 1 but claims to have recieved his intended result. Anti was bus driven Night 2 and was unable to do what he intended.

I don't see an easy way to square this with MNN being town. It would appear that either MNN is lying about his role, or multiple people are lying to get him lynched. I wonder if MNN is still a fan of Occam's Razor in this situation.

;)

There is that. If Grunt is being honest, his Busdriving, then his targetes switch places, which would seem to confirm what Aik said... he targeted MMN night 1 but got Arrows.

What night did Archer investigate Arrows and what niight did he investigate MNN?

says above.

He investigated Arrows both nights he said, and because of the bus driving, he got my info.

Why wouldn't he get more info about me? I don't know.

Finally caught up.

Put it bluntly, I don't trust Arrows or MNN. I've felt something was up with them since the beginning and I DEFINITELY don't trust how they both made a concerted effort to twist the vote back onto the guy who was accusing MNN of being scum. So...

Vote: Midnightnick



Ah. I pushed on Archer because of the way he claims his ability to be uber-godly-townie-perfection. An investigator who gets told someone's lying about stuff? Bull. Not really trying to aid or defend MNN, as I'm fairly certain he's lying somewhere. Just wanted to push Archer because I, personally, feel like he's lying through his teeth.

but if you are town then it would be a great role. oh yeah. sorry.

Just want to make this point...


It's still early in the game, Arrows. I'm not too confident about Archer myself, but again I think he might just be noobish and some of his words didn't come out quite like he intended. Its suspicious, but hardly damning. We have plenty of night phases left to prove he's lying.

Meanwhile, with MNN, we've CAUGHT him lying TWICE. How many nights are we going to keep letting him run around?
Point is, do we need to keep catching him in lies? Will the third time actually be the charm, or should we aim for a baker's dozen?

;)

Hmmmm.......

Way too much confusion, sucks I can't do anything and don't get any of these wonderful PM's. However from the looks of things. We have confirmation that Comrade blocks people from doing things, and, if we believe Arrows he doesn't do anything, yet both nights when those two conditions should have been taken into account with regards to MNN, he was able to do his "gunsmith" thing? :confused:

So.....

Vote: Midnightnick

;)

First, wasn't MNN under hardcore suspicion yesterday? And then there was no night kills last night?

Scum laying low? yes/no?

*clears throat* is that You doing the whole I-have-a-crazy-complex-role thing again? You're a miller who manipulates votes and has to talk lots to get ANOTHER ability at night?


This whole "fight" between Shape and Archer would be the best way for two mafia members to seperate themselves from each other in this game. I mean think about it. Start taking personal shots at one another and make everyone think you hate each other so much and can't get along that there would be no way you two were on the same side.....

Or are you? :)


no. i dont think that lakeside is big enough for the both of us, let alone a smaller group.

ok bed for me. i got 12 to pull tonight after 16 last night.

these are the posts dealing with arrows and midnight from me.











several have asked for me to paraphrase my pms. i thought that is what i did. i really think most of the confusion is caused by the twisting and things that those two as well as others have offered. so i will attempt to make it more plain this time.

night one :
tried arrows




didnt get my clue so i sent a pm and got generally yes but no for various reasons due to waht it would give away.


night 2:
tried arrows again

paraphrasing-continued search this one managed to allude first time, but not this time. ability to sway others with his silver tongue and convince others with his hue, but not you.
clear that arrows is not lakeside aligned.



Silver tongued means someone who talks eloquently.

Arrows says he has to post alot.

Its a hint confirming his post claim I think.


first sentence states i was looking for truth.
second one states what i found was different.
third midnightnick is lakeside aligned.


Couldn't that just be the Mod telling you that who you searched for (targeted) //looking for truth

was not who you investigated// found something different.

I'm not sure I'd use post count as any real indication, cause that could just be that they couldn't get on.

I'm thinking, people who have been on and had things to say, but never really addressed the big issues that were current discussion.

Relatively active people, even. Someone like myself, almost :p, except, my alibi is that I have no idea what to think of all this, and that I'm not sure there's any real way solve it without lynching, and I can't decide who's the best to lynch.

Right now, I'm thinking Anti because they way he seems so ready to be lynched, and the way he's phrasing things just.. "i don't care if you lynch me cause i'm town." Just seems like a way to get out of being lynched, no?

..I'm also naturally suspicious of Arrows. I'm not sure if it's overly so.

...I SWEAR I WAS TRYING TO GET AWAY FROM THIS. #$%&! God DAMN.

What was I saying? I don't even know.

People who haven't addressed stuff. Right.
People who have been reading, and posting, but not addressing it, just, letting it go.
I feel like I'm still going in circles.
